On March 4, 2014, Marc Diouane, our Executive Vice President, Global Services, resigned effective March 31, 2014. Mr. Diouane will continue as a consultant to PTC for the period April 1, 2014 to November 15, 2014 under a Consulting Agreement dated March 6, 2014 to assist with the transition of his responsibilities. Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement, PTC will pay Mr. Diouane $100,000 for his services under the Consulting Agreement, his unvested equity will continue to vest in accordance with its terms during the term of the Consulting Agreement, and PTC will provide certain expatriate tax services to him for 2014. If the Consulting Agreement is terminated by PTC for cause or by Mr. Diouane, no further amounts will be paid to him under the Consulting Agreement, all unvested equity will be forfeited and PTC will not be obligated to provide the tax services to him. If PTC terminates the Consulting Agreement without cause, all amounts that have not yet been paid under the Consulting Agreement will be paid to him, all unvested equity that would have vested on or before November 15, 2014 will accelerate and vest, and PTC will be obligated to provide the expatriate tax services for 2014 to him.
A copy of the Consulting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Consulting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Consulting Agreement.
