(c) On December 21, 2016, Pool Corporation (the “Company”) announced that Mr. Peter D. Arvan, 51, will be joining the company as Executive Vice President, effective January 3, 2017. Mr. Arvan served as Chief Executive Officer of Roofing Supply Group (RSG) from 2013 to 2015. Prior to joining RSG in 2013, Mr. Arvan served as President of SABIC Polymershapes (formerly GE Plastics - Polymershapes), a position he held since 2004.
There are no family relationships between Mr. Arvan and any director, executive officer or other person that would require disclosure under Item 401(d) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Regulation S-K”). Since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, the Company has not engaged in any transaction in which Mr. Arvan had a direct or indirect material interest within the meaning of Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
Pursuant to Mr. Arvan’s employment agreement, he will receive an annual base salary of $400,000, participate in the Company’s Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) and Strategic Plan Incentive Program (“SPIP”), and receive an equity grant valued at approximately $1,500,000 upon his first date of employment and in 2018 and 2019. In the event that Mr. Arvan is terminated without cause (as defined in the employment agreement), he will be entitled to receive the following severance payments: salary continuation for six months, pro rata portions of equity grants received in 2017 and 2018 and in the event termination occurs prior to January 1, 2019, any unpaid awards under the AIP and SPIP. Finally, the employment agreement provides that Mr. Arvan will be subject to certain restrictive covenants regarding competition and solicitation during the term of the agreement and for two years thereafter.
The foregoing summary of the employment agreement does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights under the employment agreement and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the employment agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2016.
