On August 4, 2011, the Board of Directors of Angeion Corporation (“Angeion” or the “Company”) authorized an addendum to the May 26, 2011 letter agreement between the Company and Gregg O. Lehman, Ph.D., approving new compensation arrangements in relation to Dr. Lehman’s July 14, 2011 appointment as Chief Executive Officer. As previously reported, Dr. Lehman was appointed interim Chief Executive Officer effective May 24, 2011 and appointed Chief Executive Officer and appointed to the Angeion Board of Directors effective July 14, 2011.

 

This addendum establishes a base salary of $350,000 annually, effective as of July 14, 2011, the date Dr. Lehman was appointed Chief Executive Officer, grants 21,435 shares as a restrictive stock award vesting over three years, outlines performance equity awards to be granted in relation to fiscal years 2012, 2013 and 2014 with a nominal value of one-third of Dr. Lehman’s then-current base salary, provides for variable compensation as a participant in the Angeion Corporation management incentive program with target cash payout of 50% of base salary (prorated from May 24, 2011 for the year ended October 31, 2011), and provides reimbursements to Dr. Lehman for maintenance of temporary residence, commuting and automobile use, plus additional income tax gross up payments. The addendum also specifies vesting criteria for restrictive stock awards and performance share grants in the event of a change in control of the Company and contemplates the completion of a change in control agreement with Dr. Lehman prior to the end of the current fiscal year on October 31, 2011. Dr. Lehman will not be paid any additional compensation for his service on the Angeion Board of Directors.
