On March 31, 2015, Tremor Video, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that Todd Sloan will step down as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer on May 31, 2015.

 

On March 25, 2015, the Company entered into a transition agreement with Mr. Sloan (the “Transition Agreement”) to govern the terms of his transition.  The Transition Agreement provides that Mr. Sloan will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer through May 31, 2015.  From June 1, 2015 through July 1, 2015 (the “Transition Period”), Mr. Sloan will continue as an employee of the Company and then will transition to the role of a strategic advisor until August 15, 2015.  Mr. Sloan may terminate his employment during the Transition Period provided that such termination may not be earlier than June 15, 2015.  Mr. Sloan’s “Separation Date” for purposes of the Transition Agreement is the earlier of (i) July 1, 2015 or (ii) the date that Mr. Sloan terminates his employment during the Transition Period, if at all.

 

The Transition Agreement provides as follows:

 

·                  Through the Separation Date, Mr. Sloan will receive his current annual base salary;

·                  Mr. Sloan will be entitled to participate in Company employee benefit plans until the Separation Date;

 

·                  The Company will reimburse Mr. Sloan for his COBRA premium until the earlier of (i) 12 months from the Separation Date, and (ii) the date after January 1, 2016 when Mr. Sloan becomes eligible for coverage by another employer;

 

·                  Mr. Sloan will continue to vest in his equity awards throughout his employment.  Following the Separation Date, Mr. Sloan’s equity will be treated in accordance with their terms, except that 25% of the otherwise unvested restricted stock units granted to Mr. Sloan in February 2014 and February 2015 will vest on the Separation Date and Mr. Sloan shall be permitted up to five years to exercise certain of his outstanding options;

 

·                  Subject to Mr. Sloan’s compliance with the terms of the Transition Agreement, he will (i) continue to receive his base salary in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices for a period of 6 months from the Separation Date; and (ii) receive a one-time bonus equal to Mr. Sloan’s base salary for 6 months on or about the Separation Date.

 

Mr. Sloan will be bound by a confidentiality covenant, a 12-month non-compete obligation and a 12-month non-solicitation obligation following termination of his employment.
