THIRD AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this Amendment”)
is made and entered into this 6th day of January, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), by and between PRECISION INDUSTRIES, INC., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”), and THOMAS SEDLAK (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive (each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”) are parties to the certain Employment Agreement dated July 14, 2020, as amended, (the “Employment Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend the Employment Agreement on the terms and conditions as hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby severally acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Employment Agreement.

2.Amendments to Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

a.The first sentence of Section 1 shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“The Executive’s employment hereunder shall be effective as of the date hereof (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue until September 30, 2027 (the “Termination Date”), unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement.”
b.Section 4.1 shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows, such amendment to be effective as of October 1, 2023:
“4.1    Base Salary. The Company shall pay the Executive an annual base salary of at least $475,000 in periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices and applicable wage payment laws. During the Employment Term, the base salary shall be increased by 5% for each business acquired and included as part of Live Ventures’ steel manufacturing segment, the annual revenue or purchase price being equal to or greater than $10,000,000, the annual revenue to be determined on a trailing twelve-month basis. An increase in base salary shall be effective on the date of closing. The parties agree to reevaluate from time-to-time the conditions under which an increase in base salary will occur. The Executive’s annual base salary, as in effect from time to time, is hereinafter referred to as “Base Salary”.”



c.Section 4.2 shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows, such amendment to be effective as of October 1, 2023:

“4.2    Annual Bonus. Executive shall be eligible for an annual cash bonus (“Annual Bonus”) of up to 100% of Base Salary, with 75% of the Annual Bonus derived from achievement of annual mutually agreed upon EBITDA target(s) and 25% as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Live Ventures Board of Directors in consultation with the Live Ventures CEO. The Annual Bonus, if any, shall be paid to the Executive within 60 days of completion of the Company’s financial year and in
accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices and applicable wage payment laws.

EBITDA” means with respect to each Annual Bonus, operating earnings adjusted to exclude special items and impairments (such special items and impairments to be mutually agreed upon by the Executive and the Live Ventures CEO, both parties agreeing to act reasonably), interest, income tax expense and benefits, depreciation, management fees paid by the Company to Live Ventures, costs associated with future and prior acquisitions, if any, payment of any bonuses by the Company to Executive in connection with EBITDA targets, capitalization of fixed assets, and amortization that are directly
related to the operations of the Company’s business. Notwithstanding, there shall be a deduction from operating earnings for investment-related interest expenses. Furthermore, if Live Ventures or any of its Affiliates completes an acquisition or other transaction and the Company or its employees, systems, properties, or assets are utilized in connection with the acquisition or management or operation of that business after the acquisition, then the positive incremental EBITDA shall be included as an addition to EBITDA for purposes of this calculation. The calculation of EBITDA shall be consistent throughout the Employment Term.”
d.Section 4.3 shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: “4.3    Fringe Benefits and Perquisites. During the Employment Term, the
Executive shall be entitled to fringe benefits and perquisites (including but not limited to any applicable benefits related to health, dental, vision, life, disability, retirement, etc.) consistent with the practices of the Company and governing benefit plan requirements (including plan eligibility provisions), and to the extent the Company provides similar benefits or perquisites (or both) to similarly situated executives of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Employment Term, the Company shall provide the Executive with: (i) a vehicle allowance of $2,400 per month; (ii) an allowance of
$400 per month to contribute towards the premiums of a $4.0 million life insurance policy; provided, however, that the Company shall have the option of purchasing additional coverage on such policy (the “Additional Coverage”) provided that the Company is named as the beneficiary of such Additional Coverage and pays the
premiums associated with such Additional Coverage; and (iii) an annual contribution (as determined under a Deferred Compensation Agreement between the Company and Executive) equal to 15% of the Executive’s annual Base Salary; (each individually
referred to as an “Executive Fringe Benefit”).”
