Appointment of Chief Operating Officer

On March 30, 2017, IRADIMED CORPORATION (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the appointment of John McCreery as Chief Operating Officer of the Company. The date on which Mr. McCreery shall commence work (his “Hire Date”) has not yet been determined but will occur during April 2017. Upon starting with the Company, Mr. McCreery will have primary responsibility over the regulatory, manufacturing and engineering departments of the Company. Mr. McCreery, 62, is currently a tenured professor in operations and innovation at North Carolina State University’s College of Management. At NC State, he works with a wide variety of organizations in operational excellence, innovation management, and leadership development initiatives. He has also served as Director of a cross-continent US-Europe-China graduate program in global innovation management. Prior to joining NC State, Mr. McCreery held roles in engineering, manufacturing, IT systems consulting, and company leadership, including Chief Operating Officer at Invivo Research. He received his undergraduate degree in Biomedical Engineering, with Honors, from Case Western Reserve University, an MBA from the University of Michigan, and a Ph.D. in operations management from Ohio State University.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. McCreery and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as an officer of the Company. Additionally, there is no family relationship between any director or executive officer of the Company and Mr. McCreery.

The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. McCreery, dated as of March 28, 2017, in connection with Mr. McCreery’s appointment as Chief Operating Officer. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. McCreery’s salary will be $200,000 per year and he is eligible for an annual bonus of 30% of his salary, which amount may be adjusted based on the overall profitability of the Company and his individual performance. Upon his Hire Date, Mr. McCreery will receive a grant of Restricted Stock Units totaling $550,000 in value using the Company’s closing stock price on the day preceding his Hire Date. Mr. McCreery’s restricted stock units will be in accordance with the terms of the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and will vest in four equal annual installments. Upon vesting, Mr. McCreery will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of restricted stock units that have vested.  The employment agreement continues until terminated by us or by Mr. McCreery in accordance with the terms of the agreement. If Mr. McCreery is terminated by us without cause or he terminates his employment with us for good reason, each as defined under the agreement, we must pay him an amount equal to six months base salary. In the event that we are involved in a change of control transaction, which generally means the transfer of ownership of more than 50% of our shares, and Mr. McCreery terminates his employment with us for good reason, we must pay him an amount equal to his then current annual salary but no less than $200,000. The agreement also contains non-solicitation, non-compete and confidentiality provisions.

This summary description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the employment agreement between the Company and Mr. McCreery, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The full text of the press release announcing Mr. McCreery’s appointment is included in Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
