Item 5. Other Information
Item 5. Other Information
On August 5, 2022, the Company entered into a change in control agreement with each of its executive officers (the “Change in Control Agreements”). The Company’s Board of Directors previously approved the form of change in control agreement prior to the Company’s separation from Enovis Corporation (previously known as Colfax Corporation). The Change in Control Agreements supersede and replace any prior agreement between the Company and such executive officers with respect to a change in control (as such term is defined in the Change in Control Agreements) of the Company, except to the extent such executive officer has an offer letter or other employment agreement with the Company, in which case the agreement with terms more favorable to the executive officer will control.
Pursuant to the Change in Control Agreements, upon a change in control of the Company, each executive officer will be entitled to an annual base salary, cash bonus opportunity and benefits package equal to or greater than the base salary, cash bonus opportunity or benefits package in effect for such executive officer immediately prior to the change in control. If an executive officer’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, death or disability or the executive officer resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the Change of Control Agreements) during the two year period following, or the three month period preceding, a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement), the Company will pay the executive officer an amount equal to: (i) two times the annual base salary of such executive officer plus (ii) two times the target cash bonus opportunity of such executive officer. Any outstanding long-term equity incentive awards held by the executive officer will continue to be treated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the award agreements and plans pursuant to which such awards were granted.
Each Change in Control Agreement has an initial two-year term, subject to automatic extension for successive one-year periods unless either the Company or the executive officer gives notice of non-renewal to the other or the agreement is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms.
