On March 22, 2017, Lumber Liquidators Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Timothy J. Mulvaney, age 48, as Senior Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer. Mr. Mulvaney’s employment with the Company is expected to begin on or about June 5, 2017 and he will report to Marty Agard, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into Item 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

Prior to his appointment, Mr. Mulvaney most recently served as Chief Accounting Officer of Media General, Inc. (“Media General”) from January 2012 and Controller of Media General from July 2009, in each case through the effective time of the merger between Media General and Nexstar Broadcasting Group, Inc., subsequent to which Mr. Mulvaney assisted Media General with the transition. Prior to serving as Controller and Chief Accounting Officer of Media General, Mr. Mulvaney served in various other financial roles with Media General beginning in 1997. Prior to joining Media General, Mr. Mulvaney was also with Ernst & Young LLP from 1991 to 1997. Mr. Mulvaney is a certified public accountant.

 

Mr. Mulvaney was appointed pursuant to the terms of an offer letter agreement, dated March 22, 2017 (the “Offer Letter Agreement”). The Offer Letter Agreement with Mr. Mulvaney provides that Mr. Mulvaney will receive an annual base salary of $250,000.

In addition, Mr. Mulvaney will receive an equity award, consisting of 50% options and 50% restricted stock, with a total cumulative value of $100,000 that vests ratably over four years.

 

Pursuant to the Offer Letter Agreement, if Mr. Mulvaney’s employment is terminated without cause (as defined in the Offer Letter Agreement) within eighteen (18) months of his actual hire date and provided he executes (i) a severance benefit agreement within thirty (30) days of his actual hire date and (ii) a general release and waiver, he will be entitled to (a) salary continuation in the amount equivalent to his base salary in effect as of his termination date for 52 weeks, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings and (b) for a period of up to 52 weeks, payment by the Company of a portion of the COBRA payments such that Mr. Mulvaney’s premium payment does not exceed what he otherwise would have paid if he were employed.
