The Revised Burton Compensation Schedule, dated March 10, 2021, amends the Burton Employment Agreement by providing that (i) Mr. Burton’s base salary, which is subject to review and modification annually by Mastech InfoTrellis, shall be $450,000 for the 2021 fiscal year; (ii) Mr. Burton is eligible to earn an annual performance-based cash bonus of $200,000 (the “Burton Performance-Based Cash Bonus”) for the achievement of certain financial and operational targets, which targets, and the bonus dollars tied to such targets, will be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors on an annual basis; and (iii) Mr. Burton is granted an award of a non-qualified stock option to purchase 160,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan, vesting in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the February 10, 2021 grant date.

Under the Revised Burton Compensation Schedule, $140,000 of the Burton Performance-Based Cash Bonus for the 2021 calendar year will be based on (i) the bookings for Mastech InfoTrellis, which represents the Company’s Data and Analytics Services segment (“D&A”); (ii) D&A Revenues; and (iii) D&A Non-GAAP EBITDA. The remaining $60,000 of the Burton Performance-Based Cash Bonus for the 2021 calendar year is subjective and based upon performance criteria to be established by the Company.

8. WITHHOLDING. Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state or local income taxes it determines may be appropriate.

9. EQUITABLE RELIEF; FEES AND EXPENSES. Executive stipulates and agrees that any breach of this Agreement by Executive will result in immediate and irreparable harm to Company and its Affiliates, the amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain, and that Company and its Affiliates could not be reasonably or adequately compensated by damages in an action at law. For these reasons, Company and its Affiliates shall have the right to obtain such preliminary, temporary or permanent injunctions or restraining orders or decrees as may be necessary to protect Company or any Affiliate against, or on account of, any breach by Executive of the provisions of this Agreement without the need to post bond. Such right to equitable relief is in addition to all other legal remedies Company or any Affiliate may have to protect its rights. The prevailing party in any such action shall be responsible for reimbursing the non-prevailing party for all costs associated with obtaining the relief, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and expenses and costs of suit. Executive further covenants and agrees that any order of court or judgment obtained by Company or an Affiliate which enforces Company’s or Affiliate’s rights under this Agreement may be transferred, without objection or opposition by Executive, to any court of law or other appropriate law enforcement body located in any other state in the United States or any other country in the world where Company or such Affiliate does business, and that said court or body shall give full force and effect to said order and or judgment.

10. EMPLOYMENT DISPUTE SETTLEMENT PROCEDURE-WAIVER OF RIGHTS. In consideration of Company employing Executive and the wages and benefits provided under this Agreement, Executive and Company each agree that, in the event either party (or its representatives, successors or assigns) brings an action in a court of competent jurisdiction relating to Executive’s recruitment, employment with, or termination of employment from Company, the plaintiff in such action agrees to waive his, her or its right to a trial by jury, and further agrees that no demand, request or motion will be made for trial by jury.

In consideration of Company employing Executive, and the wages and benefits provided under this Agreement, Executive further agrees that, in the event that Executive seeks relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for a dispute covered by this Agreement, Company may, at any time within sixty (60) days of the service of Executive’s complaint upon Company, at its option, require all or part of the dispute to be arbitrated by one arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Executive agrees that the option to arbitrate any dispute is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, and is fully enforceable. Executive understands and agrees that, if Company exercises its option, any dispute arbitrated will be heard solely by the arbitrator, and not by a court. The parties agree that the prevailing party shall be entitled to have all of their legal fees paid by the non-prevailing party. This pre-dispute resolution agreement will cover all matters directly or indirectly related to Executive’s recruitment, employment or termination of employment by Company; including, but not limited to, claims involving laws against any form of discrimination whether brought under federal and/or state law, and/or claims involving co-employees, but excluding Worker’s Compensation Claims.

13. FULL UNDERSTANDING.
