Separation Agreement of Chief Executive Officer and President.

 

As previously disclosed on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange on January 13, 2015, Harold A. Hurwitz resigned from all of his positions with Pro-Dex, Inc. (the “Company”) effective January 12, 2015 (the “Separation Date”). On February 12, 2015, the Company and Mr. Hurwitz entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release of All Claims (“Separation Agreement”) concerning the conclusion of Mr. Hurwitz’s employment services with the Company. A complete copy of the Separation Agreement is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.1 and the summary set forth below is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Separation Agreement.

Provided that the Separation Agreement has not been revoked by Mr. Hurwitz prior to the expiration of the seven day revocation period described below, the Company will, among other things: (i) pay Mr. Hurwitz severance compensation in the gross amount of $58,846.15, in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Employee Severance Policy; (ii) provided Mr. Hurwitz elected coverage under the Company’s group health insurance program prior to the Separation Date and makes a timely election for continued coverage pursuant to COBRA, pay the monthly premiums for such continued coverage under the Company’s group health insurance program for a period from the Separation Date through May 31, 2015; (iii) pay Mr. Hurwitz $31,633.33 representing the in-the-money portion of his vested options as of January 9, 2015 and; (iv) reimburse Mr. Hurwitz up to $10,000 in employment search expenses until the earlier of December 31, 2015 or the date Mr. Hurwitz accepts an offer of full-time employment. Additionally, the Company will pay Mr. Hurwitz an additional amount of up to $79,615.16 (the “Enhanced Severance Amount”) in the event the Company’s FY2015 EBITDA, as defined in the Separation Agreement, is at least $603,975. The Separation Agreement also contains other provisions customary for an agreement of this nature.

Mr. Hurwitz has provided the Company and its affiliates with a general release of claims, subject to certain statutory exceptions set forth in the Separation Agreement.

Pursuant to applicable law, Mr. Hurwitz has a period of seven calendar days to revoke the Separation Agreement by providing the Company with written notice of such revocation. Any revocation of the Separation Agreement, however, shall not affect the finality of the separation of Mr. Hurwitz’s employment with the Company on the Separation Date.
