Item 5.02. | | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On December 24, 2008, S1 Corporation (the “Company”) entered into agreements (the “Agreements”) with Johann Dreyer (Chief Executive Officer), Jan Kruger, (President, Enterprise), Meigan Putnam (SVP, Enterprise Insurance), and Neil Underwood (SVP, Enterprise Retail Online) regarding compensation upon termination of their employment with the Company and, in certain circumstances, in the event of a change in control. The primary purpose for entering into the Agreements was to address issues raised by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and related interpretations and guidance of the Internal Revenue Service. The Agreements replace employment agreements the Company previously had entered into with each of these employees and sets forth the compensation these employees would be entitled to in the event their employment with the Company is terminated as a result of (i) death, (ii) disability, (iii) for Cause or Without Good Reason, and (iv) without Cause or for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in each of the Agreements). Additionally, Mr. Dreyer’s agreement provides for certain vesting of unvested equity awards in the event of a Change in Control (as such term is defined in Mr. Dreyer’s Agreement).
The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to each of the Agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 to this report and are hereby incorporated by reference herein.
