Sharp, Vice President, Human Resources & Environmental, Health, and Safety, entered into an Employee Separation Agreement and Release (the “Separation Agreement”), relating to the terms of Ms. Sharp’s resignation from the Company, effective December 31, 2011. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Ms. Sharp will receive an aggregate cash payment of $39,483.33 payable in equal semi-monthly installments (the “Severance Payment”). The Severance Payment will be paid by the Company in consideration of certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by Ms. Sharp, including, but not limited to, covenants of confidentiality, non-solicitation and non-competition.
To the extent Ms. Sharp has outstanding stock options and restricted stock of the Company, Ms. Sharp’s resignation is deemed to be a termination by the Company without cause for purposes of the award agreements.
For the months of January and February 2012, if Ms. Sharp elects to continue health and medical benefits under COBRA, the Company shall pay that portion of Ms. Sharp’s health and medical costs that the Company would have paid had Ms. Sharp remained an employee. Thereafter, Ms. Sharp shall be responsible for all COBRA costs.
The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement is qualified in their entirety by reference to the Separation Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
