On February 27, 2012, Medytox Solutions, Inc.

Medytox will also reimburse Mr. Simmons for agreed-upon moving expenses and for his temporary housing expenses for up to 90 days.
In the event Medytox is merged or acquired by another company and Mr Simmons' position changes, he will be offered an amount equal to his compensation and benefits to the end of the then current term. If Mr. Simmons dies during the term of the Agreement, his estate will be paid his compensation for the lesser of one year and the end of the then current term.
