Item 5.02.Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On October 22, 2014, the Company announced that Ms. Jennifer M. Brown, the Company’s Chief Administrative Officer, Corporate Secretary and Executive Vice President left the Company.  The Company entered into a separation and release of claims agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with Ms. Brown, pursuant to which Ms. Brown agreed to a general release of claims with respect to the Company.  The effectiveness of the Separation Agreement was contingent upon the expiration of a statutory revocation period that expired on November 13, 2014.

 

In consideration for her general release, and subject to compliance with the terms of the Separation Agreement, Ms. Brown will receive severance payments (less standard withholdings and deductions, as required by applicable law) in the gross amount of $90,000, equal to six months (the “Severance Period”) of Ms. Brown’s base pay, payable in equal installments during the Severance Period in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, beginning in November 2014.  In addition, Ms. Brown will receive health insurance coverage during the Severance Period.  The Separation Agreement contains customary confidentiality and non-solicitation covenants and a mutual release of claims between the Company and Ms. Brown.

 

The description of the Separation Agreement herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Separation Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
