He will also be eligible to receive two future grants of 50,000 options to purchase common stock of the Company upon reaching certain milestones related to the number of retail electricity customers of the Company.  The stock options were issued pursuant to the Company's 2012 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan.
The employment agreement contains customary provisions for termination for Cause (as defined in the employment agreement).  In the event Mr. Leibman is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason (as defined in the employment agreement), Mr. Leibman will be entitled to receive severance pay consisting of (i) six (6) months of his base salary in effect immediately prior to such termination; and (ii) all unvested stock options granted to Mr. Leibman pursuant to the employment agreement will accelerate and immediately vest on such date of termination.
