Effective March 04, 2013, Mannatech, Incorporated (“Mannatech”) entered into an employment agreement with Roy Truett (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which Mannatech hired Mr. Truett to serve as its President of International and Chief Operating Officer.  Mr. Truett shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and shall perform such other services, duties and responsibilities commensurate with Mr. Truett’s position as may be assigned by the CEO or the Board of Directors.
 
Mr. Truett, 45, previously served as Chief Operating Officer of USANA Health Sciences, Inc. (“Usana”), a health and nutrition supplement company, since May 2011.  As Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Truett was responsible for Usana’s day-to-day operating activities and enhancing the internal organization process.  His areas of responsibility included information technology, supply chain management, compensation plan strategies, project management, and inventory control.  Mr. Truett joined USANA in April 2003 as Executive Director of Information Technology before being promoted to Chief Information Officer in July 2005.  Mr. Truett received a B.S. in business administration with an emphasis in information systems management from Francis Marion University in Florence, South Carolina and a M.B.A. from the University of Phoenix.
 
The Agreement provides for Mr. Truett’s employment as President of International and Chief Operating Officer for a term of one year, unless terminated earlier by either party giving thirty days’ prior written notice of termination.  The Agreement will renew for successive one-year terms if not previously terminated or if neither party gives the other at least thirty days’ prior written notice of its intent not to renew.  The Agreement provides for an annual base salary of $340,000 and for (i) up to $30,000 for moving expenses; (ii) up to $30,000 for closing costs related to the purchase of residence; (iii) commuting costs and temporary housing costs for a period of up to six months; (iv) a signing bonus of $50,000; (v) eligibility to earn up to $52,000 pursuant to the 2013 executive bonus plan; (vi) a monthly car allowance of $1,000; (vii) twenty days of paid vacation annually; and (viii) all employee benefits offered to Mannatech’s employees.
 
The Agreement may also be terminated by (i) the death of the employee; and (ii) by Mannatech upon written notice of termination to the employee upon employee’s disability or for cause.  Mr. Truett will continue to receive his base salary for twelve months from the termination date unless he resigns without good reason; terminated by Mannatech for cause; or in the case of his death.  Under the Agreement, cause means (i) employee neglect or failure to render services or other duties in the Agreement; (ii) violation of any provision or obligation under the Agreement; (iii) employee’s indictment, plea of no contest with respect to any crime that adversely affects or may adversely affect Mannatech; or (iv) any other act or omission of the employee involving fraud, theft, dishonesty, disloyalty, or illegality with respect to, or that harms or embarrasses, Mannatech or any of its subsidiaries, affiliates, customers, dealers or suppliers.  Good reason under the Agreement means (i) Mannatech’s denial of compensation due and owing to employee where such denial is by any means, including but not limited to, a material act or omission of fraud, theft, or dishonesty in Mannatech’s accounting practices or otherwise; (ii) requirement by Mannatech to be based anywhere other than Dallas County, Texas; (iii) Mannatech’s demotion of employee in title or pay or the removal of a material portion of the employee’s significant duties or responsibilities pursuant to the Agreement, without employee’s consent; or (iv) Mannatech’s material breach of the Agreement.
