b.     The Company will pay Executive $26,676.94 each month, less applicable taxes and withholdings as required by law, in 12 substantially equal payments, with the first monthly payment to be made within two weeks following the Effective Date of this Agreement, and the remaining payments shall be made on the fourth day of the next 11 months, with the final payment being made on June 4, 2019. The period during which payments are made under this Section 1 . b . shall be the “ Severance Period ”.

d.     The Company will pay Executive all approved, but unreimbursed, business expenses, provided that a request for reimbursement of business expenses is submitted in accordance with the Company’s policies and submitted within five (5) business days of the Resignation Date.

e.     The Company will pay Executive a bonus of $11,722.74, less applicable taxes and withholdings on or before March 15, 2019, so long as this Agreement becomes effective, pursuant to Section 5.d . of this Agreement.

f.     Executive may elect to continue his coverage under the Company’s group medical plan by making an election to do so in accordance with COBRA. If he makes a proper election to continue coverage under COBRA, the Company will pay the entire premium for such continued coverage under COBRA for the first 8 months of coverage. At the end of that period, the Executive will be responsible for the entire premium for such coverage and for those months during which the Executive is still receiving payments under this Section 1 , the employee portion of those premiums will be deducted from the payments to be made to Executive pursuant to this Section 1 .   

g.     Executive acknowledges that it is not the Company’s usual policy to provide the consideration set forth in this Agreement, and that Executive would not necessarily be entitled to such consideration if Executive were not entering into this Agreement.

2.     Stock Options. The Company will accelerate the vesting of the 178,750 options originally scheduled to vest on June 27, 2018, with an exercise price of $.605, which will now vest on the Resignation Date. Subject to the terms of the IsoRay, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan pursuant to which the options were granted, Executive has the time set forth in each vested option to exercise the option before it expires. Any other options granted that were not vested as of June 4, 2018 (excluding the accelerated vested options referred to above), may not be exercised.

3.     Waiver, Release, a nd Discharge o f Claims .

a.     Executive waives, releases, and discharges all of his existing rights to any relief of any kind (known and unknown) from the Company, its insurers, affiliates, divisions, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (all of whom are referred to herein collectively as the “ Employer ”), including without limitation all claims that arise out of or that relate to Executive’s employment or separation from employment with the Company, all claims that arise out of or that relate to any of the statements or actions of the Employer, all claims that arise under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family & Medical Leave Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the National Labor Relations Act, the Arizona Fair Wages and Healthy Families Act, the Arizona Civil Rights Act, the Arizona wage payment laws, or the Arizona Employment Protection Act, claims under Washington state law such as the Washington Law Against Discrimination (WLAD), the Washington Family Leave Act, the Washington Family Care Act, the Washington Paid Sick Leave Law, the Washington Minimum Wage Act, other Washington employment laws found in RCW Title 49, and related Washington regulations, all claims for relief or other benefits under any other federal, state, or local statute, ordinance, regulation, rule of decision, or principle of common law, all claims that the Employer engaged in conduct prohibited on any basis under any federal, state, or local statute, ordinance, regulation, rule of decision, or principle of common law, and all claims for attorneys’ fees, liquidated damages, punitive damages, costs, and disbursements (all of which are referred to herein collectively as “ Claims ”).

b.     Executive acknowledges that Executive may later discover Claims, facts, or causes of action presently unknown, unsuspected, or different from those that Executive now suspects or believes to be true. Executive expressly waives and assumes the risk that the facts or law may be other than Executive believes them to be. Executive acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is a general release of all Claims, known and unknown, regardless of the discovery or existence of any additional or different facts or Claims at any time after Executive signs this Agreement.

c.     Executive will not file or be a party to any lawsuit against the Employer that seeks to recover under or that arises out of any Claim. If Executive breaches this covenant, he will immediately repay the full consideration that he is receiving in exchange for this Agreement, regardless of the outcome of the lawsuit. Executive is not, however, waiving the right to file a charge with the EEOC or any similar state agency.

4.     Federal Age Discrimination Claims . Executive understands and agrees that a waiver of claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended (29 U.S.C. § 621, et seq .) (the “ ADEA ”) is not effective unless it is “knowing and voluntary,” and that the ADEA imposes certain minimum requirements for a waiver to be knowing and voluntary. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive is knowingly and voluntarily giving up any rights or claims for relief Executive may have under the ADEA regarding the Company’s conduct or the conduct of any Employer. However, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive is not giving up the right to challenge the validity of this Agreement under the ADEA.
