The Plan Amendment provides for (i) vesting of benefits upon the sale of each individual post-subdivision lot at Flowerfield and Cortlandt Manor, (ii) entitlement to a future benefit in the event of death, voluntary termination following substantial reduction in compensation or board fees, mutually agreed separation to right-size the board or involuntary termination without cause, and (iii) clarification of how development costs are calculated.

The Plan Amendment does not have the effect of increasing the size of the participant pool, but rather only how benefits are divided among plan participants.</font></p>

Gyrodyne, LLC, a New York limited liability company (the "Company"), and Peter Pitsiokos, its Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, Secretary and Chief Compliance Officer, entered into Amendment No. 1 (the "Employment Agreement Amendment") to that certain employment agreement effective as of May 15, 2014 between the Company and Mr. Pitsiokos. The Employment Agreement Amendment defines with greater specificity Mr. Pitsiokos' duties and responsibilities with respect to the Company's properties.
The description of the Employment Agreement Amendment in this Report
is only a summary of its material terms, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Employment Agreement Amendment which is attached to this Report as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.
Amendment to Retention Bonus Plan
On
January 26, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved Amendment No. 2 to its Retention Bonus Plan (the "Plan Amendment"). The Plan Amendment provides for (i) vesting of benefits upon the sale of each individual post-subdivision lot at Flowerfield and Cortlandt Manor, (ii) entitlement to a future benefit in the event of death, voluntary termination following substantial reduction in compensation or board fees, mutually agreed separation to right-size the board or involuntary termination without cause, and (iii) clarification of how development costs are calculated. As to any of the events referred to in clause (ii) above, a participant will only be eligible to receive a benefit to the extent that a property is sold within three years following the event and the sale produces an internal rate of return equal to at least four percent of the property's value as of December 31 immediately preceding such event. The Plan Amendment does not have the effect of increasing the size of the participant pool, but rather only how benefits are divided among plan participants.
