Supplemental Retirement Plan. Effective December 18, 2014, the Registrant elected to add Roy David Beaver, III, who is the Registrants Chief Financial Officer, as a participant under the Registrants Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the Plan), commencing in 2015. Under the Plan, the Registrant intends to make annual contributions in the amount of $15,000 for the benefit of Mr. Beaver.
The Plan is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan maintained by the Registrant for certain of its executive officers. Plan benefits accrue and vest during the period of employment, and can be paid in one lump sum payment or in fixed monthly benefit payments for up to ten years commencing with the participating officers retirement or separation from service under certain circumstances. The Plan is structured as a defined contribution plan and the Registrants expected annual funding contribution for each participant is calculated through the participants expected retirement date. Under the terms of the Plan, the Registrant has reserved the absolute right, at its sole discretion, to either fund or refrain from funding the Plan.
Change in Control Agreement. On January 15, 2015, the Registrants board of directors approved the entry into a Change in Control Severance Agreement with Mr. Beaver. Under the agreement, Mr. Beaver would be entitled to certain severance benefits if his employment is terminated under certain circumstances that would constitute a covered termination under the agreement. A covered termination means (i) executives dismissal or discharge for reasons other than cause (as defined in the agreement), death or disability or (ii) executives termination of his own employment for good reason (as defined in the agreement), either of which occurs within 12 months following the effective date of a change in control (as defined in the agreement). If a covered termination occurs, Mr. Beaver would be entitled to:
| A lump sum cash severance payment equal to the executives annual base salary, which salary is currently set at $165,000; |
| Have the vesting on all his then-outstanding compensatory equity awards accelerated, if unvested, as of the employment termination date; and |
| Up to twelve months of company paid premium reimbursements for executive and his eligible dependents if executive is eligible for and elects continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (COBRA). |
Such severance benefits may be subject to a cut-back if such payments constitute excess parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, if such cut-back would result in a higher after-tax amount being paid to the executive.
Under the Change in Control Severance Agreement, Mr. Beaver is also agreeing to certain non-competition covenants that are operable during the term of the agreement and for a period of at least 12 months following the date Mr. Beavers employment is terminated. Further, Mr. Beavers right to receive the severance benefits set forth in the agreement is subject to Mr. Beaver
executing, and not revoking, a separation agreement and release of claims in a form acceptable to the Registrant. Mr. Beaver and the Registrant have agreed to an effective date of January 1, 2015 for the Change in Control Severance Agreement.
A copy of Mr. Beavers Change in Control Severance Agreement is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report and is incorporated herein by reference.
