Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(b) On June 2, 2014, United Financial Bancorp, Inc. and United Bank (collectively, “United”) and J. Jeffrey Sullivan (“Sullivan”) announced that Sullivan will resign from his position as President and as a member of the Board of Directors of United effective June 2, 2014 (“Effective Date”). The Bank has no plans to fill the President position. Also, no decision has been made to fill the vacant seat on the Board of Directors. That decision will be addressed by the Board’s Governance Committee.
In connection with Mr. Sullivan’s resignation, the parties entered into an agreement that supercedes any earlier employment and benefit related agreements. The agreement provides for payment of Sullivan’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and payment in consideration for Sullivan’s non-compete and non-solicitation covenants. A copy of the Agreement is included with this filing as Exhibit 10.19 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
United issued a press release regarding the matters described in Item 5.02(b). The complete text of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
