Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
(b) Resignation of Officer. Effective on September 2, 2014, Ralph E. Peterson resigned as Command Center, Inc.’s (“Command Center”) interim Principal Accounting Officer to resume his retirement. There is no disagreement with Mr. Peterson on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Mr. Peterson will continue his affiliation with the Company as Director Emeritus.

Mr. Peterson has not had any material direct or indirect interest in any of our transactions since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year or in any currently proposed transaction.

(c) Appointment of Officer. On September 2, 2014, Command Center’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) named Jeff Wilson as Command Center’s Chief Financial Officer.  
 
The Board believes that Mr. Wilson will bring to Command Center strong financial management experience with international public and private companies, as demonstrated in prior executive-level positions.  Jeff Wilson, age 53, has been a director of Command Center, Inc., since September 21, 2010.  Since March 2013, Mr. Wilson has served as Chief Financial Officer of Acumatica, a privately-held cloud based ERP provider based in Kirkland, Washington.  Prior to joining Acumatica, since April 2006, Mr. Wilson served as the Chief Financial Officer of Microvision, Inc., a publicly-traded technology company. Prior to this appointment, he had served as Microvision's Controller and Principal Accounting Officer since August 1999. Prior to Microvision, he held senior finance and accounting positions with Siemens Medical Systems, and earlier in his career Wilson served as a manager at PricewaterhouseCoopers. He is a CPA and holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Oklahoma State University.

In connection with Mr. Wilson’s appointment on September 2, 2014, Command Center and Mr. Wilson entered into an Executive Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”).  The Agreement was approved by Command Center’s Board.

A summary of the key terms of the Agreement entered into with Mr. Wilson is as follows:

  
Mr. Wilson’s base salary will be $200,000, with an annual bonus opportunity under the terms and conditions of the Executive Bonus Plan.  Mr. Wilson is not guaranteed the payment of any annual bonus.
 
  
Mr. Wilson is also entitled to certain relocation expenses, travel and expense reimbursement, professional membership expenses, education expenses, and vacation.
 
  
 
As of the date of the Agreement, Mr. Wilson will be entitled to an initial grant of unvested options to acquire 500,000 shares of common stock. The options will vest in four equal annual installments of 125,000 shares, beginning on the Vesting Commencement Date as set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Award.
 
Mr. Wilson is also granted two performance stock awards, each in the amount of 100,000 shares of restricted common stock, to vest in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

  
In the event of a change in control (as defined in the Agreement), Mr. Wilson will continue to receive his base salary and annual bonus for 12  months after termination, together with vesting of all options and stock awards granted pursuant to the Agreement.  In the event of termination without cause (as defined in the Agreement), Mr. Wilson would continue to receive his Base Salary for 12 months following termination.

  
Noncompetition and confidentiality provisions are applicable under the Agreement.

  
The Agreement was effective September 2, 2014 and continues for one year unless sooner terminated (the “Employment Term”).  On September 2, 2015, the Employment Term will automatically be extended for an additional year unless either party gives written notice of intention not to extend the Employment Term.  Either Command Center or Mr. Wilson can terminate the Agreement at any time upon notice.

The foregoing description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of such Agreement (a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K).

As Chief Financial Officer, Jeff Wilson will continue as a member of the Board of Directors, but not as a member of the Audit Committee.
