2017 Compensatory Arrangements of Named Executive Officers
2017 Base Salary
On January 25, 2017, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board ”) of U.S. Auto Parts Network, Inc. (the “Company”), approved an increase in the annual base salary for the Company’s named executive officers, with all such annual base salary increases effective as of the period beginning on January 25, 2017 (the “2017 Base Salaries”). The 2017 Base Salaries are set forth below:
Executive Officer | Title | 2017 Base Salary |
Shane Evangelist | Chief Executive Officer | $446,581 |
Aaron Coleman | President and COO | $329,529 |

David Eisler | VP, General Counsel | $261,467 |
2017 Performance-Based Bonus Awards
On January 25, 2017, the Committee adopted the 2017 Bonus Plan under which the Company granted performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) to the Company’s named executive officers in accordance with the terms of the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The minimum and maximum PRSUs to be earned are set forth below (assuming achievement of the performance metrics described below):
Executive Officer | Title | Minimum PRSUs | Maximum PRSUs* |
Shane Evangelist | Chief Executive Officer | 51,479 | 102,958 |
Aaron Coleman | President and COO | 23,741 | 47,482 |
Neil Watanabe | Chief Financial Officer | 22,597 | 45,195 |
David Eisler | VP, General Counsel | 13,186 | 26,373 |
*Represents the target bonus for each named executive officer
Achievement of the Company’s objectives relating to Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ending December 30, 2017 will determine the actual number of PRSUs to be earned. For purposes hereof, “Adjusted EBITDA” shall be defined as income before interest expense, net, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of intangible assets, plus share-based compensation expense, provided that the Committee may take into account additional one-time adjustments in its sole discretion on the determination date. The actual number of PRSUs to be earned will be settled in March 2018 based upon the degree to which the Company achieves the performance metrics, as determined by the Committee; however, none of the PRSUs will be earned unless the Company achieves certain minimum performance metrics.
Each PRSU earned will be settled in one share of the Company’s common stock and shall vest on the Committee’s determination date, subject in each case, to such named executive officer’s service to the Company through such date, provided, however, that if such executive officer is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason (as defined under such executive’s employment agreement) prior to the determination date, then the PRSU’s will become fully-vested on the date of such earlier termination or resignation.
The 2017 Bonus Plan also provides that if the Company achieves certain performance metrics relating to Adjusted EBITDA, each named executive officer will also be eligible for a cash bonus award above and beyond such named executive officer’s target bonus (represented in the form of the PRSU grant) in accordance with the terms of the Performance Cash Bonus Award Agreement entered into with the named executive officer.
The foregoing descriptions of the PRSUs and cash bonus awards do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement and form of Performance Cash Bonus Award Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 to this report.
Stock Option Grants

Watanabe, Coleman, and Eisler were each granted stock options under the 2016 Plan as set forth below, at an exercise price equal to $3.40 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, 25% of which will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date, and the remainder of which will vest in equal monthly installments thereafter over three years, subject to such executive’s service to the Company through such dates and the terms of such executive’s employment agreement.

On January 25, 2017, Mr. Evangelist was granted a restricted stock unit award (the “RSU Award”) under the 2016 Plan covering 833,333 shares of the Company’s common stock. The RSU Award represents the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock only when, and with respect to the number of shares which have vested. Fifty-percent of the RSU Award will become fully-vested on January 25, 2020, and fifty-percent of the RSU Award shall vest in twelve equal quarterly installments commencing on April 25, 2017 and vesting on each three month anniversary date thereafter through January 25, 2020, subject in each case, to Mr. Evangelist’s service to the Company through such vesting dates, provided, however, that if Mr. Evangelist is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason (as defined under Mr. Evangelist’s employment agreement) prior to January 21, 2020, then the RSU Award will become fully-vested on the date of such earlier termination or resignation.
