Mazzullo Employment Agreement

On December 26, 2012, Veramark Technologies, Inc. ("the Company"), amended and restated the Employment Agreement between the Company and Anthony C. Mazzullo (the "Restated Employment Agreement"), originally entered into between the parties on January 1, 2011 (the "Original Employment Agreement"). The Restated Employment Agreement became effective on December 31, 2012 and makes minor modifications to the Original Employment Agreement to ensure that the agreement complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Section 409A"). In particular, the following modifications were made to the Restated Employment Agreement:

• to provide that the Performance Bonus for a given year shall be paid no sooner than January 1 of the following year, and within thirty (30) days of the Board’s calculation of the Bonus, but in no event, will the Bonus be paid later than December 31st of the following year;

• to require the non-revocation of a waiver and release, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, before Mr. Mazzullo receives separation pay; and

• amended the definition of a "change in control" to mean "a change in ownership of the Company, a change in the effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets, each within the meaning given such terms by Section 409A.

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them as in the Restated Employment Agreement.


Indemnification Agreements

On December 31, 2012, the Company began entering into indemnification agreements with each of the Company’s directors (collectively, the "Indemnification Agreements"). The Indemnification Agreements provide that the Company shall indemnify the Company’s directors in the event a director was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that the director serves, or has agreed to serve, the Company. The Indemnification Agreements indemnify the Company’s directors against, without limitation, personal liability and claims for monetary damages arising out of an alleged breach of fiduciary duty, to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.

The Restated Employment Agreement and Indemnification Agreements will be attached as exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
