Amendment to Employment Agreement with Scott K. Ginsburg
On October 19, 2011, the Company entered into an amendment (the CEO Amendment) to the existing Employment Agreement, dated October 3, 2008, and as amended effective January 1, 2011 (the First Amendment), with our Chief Executive Officer, Scott K. Ginsburg (as amended, the CEO Agreement).
The CEO Amendment amends the provisions of the CEO Agreement respecting severance. Specifically, the existing CEO Agreement provided that Mr. Ginsburg would be entitled to severance in the event of his voluntary termination of employment for any reason following a change of control. Pursuant to the CEO Amendment, this severance trigger has been removed and is now limited to his voluntary resignation for good reason.
The above summary of the CEO Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the CEO Amendment, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the Companys fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011, the full text of the CEO Agreement, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on October 3, 2008, and the full text of the First Amendment, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed by the Company on May 10, 2011.
