ITEM 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 14, 2016, Peekay Boutiques, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated Martin Walker from his position with the Company as VP Marketing and Visual Merchandising. In connection with this termination, the Company entered into a separation agreement and release with Mr. Walker, dated November 14, 2016 (the “Separation Agreement”). The Separation Agreement requires the Company to pay Mr. Walker the equivalent to two months’ pay on an annual salary base of $135,000 less applicable withholding through November 14, 2016; continuing health insurance coverage through November 30, 2016; and Mr. Walker shall be eligible to elect and pay for COBRA insurance coverage thereafter. Other than the continuation of health insurance benefits through November 30, 2016, Mr. Walker’s benefits ceased as of November 14, 2016. Mr. Walker agreed to a customary release of all claims against the Company. The separation agreement will become effective on November 21, 2016 unless it is revoked by either party prior to that date. In connection with the separation agreement, we obtained the approval of our Consenting Term A lenders for the payment of the severance obligations under the Separation Agreement, as required under the Forbearance Agreement.

 

The foregoing is a summary description of certain terms of the separation agreement, and, by its nature, is incomplete. A copy of the separation agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated into this report by reference. All readers are encouraged to read the entire text of the agreement.

Pursuant to the resignation letter, Ms. Mathews is resigning from all offices that she holds with the Company and each of its subsidiaries.
