2 PER CURIAM:

Dione M. Thomas appeals the district court’s orders

granting defendants’ motions to dismiss her second amended

complaint in this employment discrimination action. We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we affirm the dismissal of count I for the reasons stated by the

district court. We likewise affirm the dismissal of count II,

but as modified to reflect dismissal of that count without

prejudice. Thomas v. Sotera Defense Solutions, Inc., No.

1:15-cv-00596-CMH-MSN (E.D. Va. filed July 19, 2016 & entered

July 20, 2016; July 27, 2016). We grant leave to proceed in

forma pauperis and dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

AFFIRMED IN PART; AFFIRMED IN PART AS MODIFIED
