Effective September 12, 2016, Rodney D. Gloss, age 59, was appointed Chief Financial Officer of Orchids Paper Products Company (the "Company"). Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Gloss served between 2011 and 2016 as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Atna Resources Ltd., a public gold mining company. In 2010 and 2011, Mr. Gloss served as Corporate Controller of Alacer Gold Corporation, a public international gold mining and exploration company. From 2004-2010, Mr. Gloss served as Vice President (Finance), Corporate Controller and Chief Accounting Officer of Intrepid Potash, Inc., a publicly traded potash producer. And in 1998 – 2004, Mr. Gloss served as Chief Financial Officer, Vice President, Controller, and Director of Treasury for Timminco Ltd., a public manufacturer, principally of magnesium products.
Mr. Gloss will receive an initial base salary of $215,000 per year. Additionally, Mr. Gloss will be eligible to receive cash bonus under the Company's performance bonus plan in an amount equal to a percentage of his annual base salary determined based on the Company's EBIDTA performance (weighted at 80%) and Mr. Gloss's individual performance (weighted at 20%). The target cash bonus is 40% of Mr. Gloss's base salary, though he is eligible to receive up to 60% of his base salary as a cash bonus depending on the Company's performance. The amount of Mr. Gloss's cash bonus will be prorated for 2016 based on the effective date of his appointment. In connection with the commencement of Mr. Gloss's employment on September 12, 2016, the Company intends to award Mr. Gloss stock options to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock under the Orchids Paper Products Company 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. These stock options have a ten year term, and will vest in five equal installments beginning on September 12, 2016 and ending on September 12, 2020. Mr. Gloss is also eligible to participate in other Company benefits plans offered to other full-time employees, and will be reimbursed for reasonable relocation expenses.

Additionally, Mr. Gloss will not solicit the established customers of the Company for any competing business or the employees of the Company to leave the Company for the duration of his employment with the Company and for two years thereafter.
There are no other arrangements or understandings between Mr. Gloss and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as an officer. The Company knows of no transactions between him, or any of his related persons, and the Company that are required to be reported pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
