On February 6, 2015, Equity One, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that Matthew Ostrower has been named as the next Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Mr. Ostrower commenced his employment with the Company, as an Executive Vice President, on March 3, 2015. Pursuant to Mr. Ostrower’s employment agreement with the Company, Mr. Ostrower is to begin serving as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer on the earlier of July 1, 2015 or the departure of Mark Langer, the Company’s existing Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
In connection with the commencement of Mr. Ostrower’s employment, on March 10, 2015, the Company and Mr. Langer mutually agreed to accelerate his departure from the Company from June 30, 2015 to April 10, 2015. Accordingly, Mr. Langer’s service as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer will terminate, and Mr. Ostrower’s service as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer will commence, on April 10, 2015. The Company and Mr. Langer entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to his employment agreement in order to reflect the acceleration of Mr. Langer’s departure. The Amendment also reduces the retention bonus payable to Mr. Langer from $400,000 to $334,000 to reflect Mr. Langer’s reduced period of employment since June 30, 2014.
The summary of the Amendment set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
