Item 5 Other Information
+Added: Amendment to Employment Agreement
+Added: Following a review of our severance arrangements with our named executive officers, certain differences were identified between the provisions relating to the payment of a pro-rata bonus for the year of an executive’s termination (the “Pro Rata Bonus”) upon certain terminations of employment occurring within two years following a change in control.
+Added: To make these provisions uniform, on April 28, 2022, we entered into amendments (collectively, the “Amendments”) to each of the employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer, Ronald J.
+Added: Kramer, and the severance agreements with our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Brian G.
+Added: Harris, and our Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Seth L.
+Added: The Amendment to Mr.
+Added: Kramer’s employment agreement provides that Mr.
+Added: Kramer’s Pro Rata Bonus be equal to a pro rata portion of the greater of the total bonus received in the immediately preceding year and the “Target Bonus” (with “Target Bonus” being defined as 150% of Mr.
+Added: Kramer’s current salary).
+Added: This is consistent with similar provisions in the agreements we have with our other named executive officers.
+Added: The Amendments also provide for payment of the Pro Rata Bonus, and related payments due in the event of certain terminations of employment occurring within two years following a change in control, to be made within 10 days following the date on which the executive’s release of claims becomes effective.
+Added: The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the Amendments, copies of each of which are filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
