(the “Company”) entered into a Transitional Services and Separation Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with Jonathan Naft, the Company’s Vice President and General Manager and a “named executive officer” pursuant to Regulation S-K as of the date of the entry into the Separation Agreement. The Separation Agreement provides for the termination of Mr. Naft and confirms that the last day of his employment with the Company to be March 31, 2021 as a result of his resignation without Good Reason (as defined in Mr. Naft’s employment agreement with the Company). Mr. Naft is eligible to receive an equity grant in 2021 to the extent the Company’s management team is eligible to receive such grants, which grant will be commensurate with the grant he would have received in his role with the Company prior to his departure. Such equity grant will become fully vested no later than December 31, 2021. In addition, the Separation Agreement contemplates the entry by Mr. Naft into a Consulting Agreement as described further below. During Mr. Naft’s consulting period, his equity awards, including stock options and restricted stock units, will continue to vest. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if Mr. Naft terminates his services to us as a result of our breach of his Consulting Agreement, or if we terminate his Consulting Agreement (other than due to his willful misconduct, refusal or failure to perform the consulting services, breach of the Separation Agreement or breach of the Consulting Agreement) or fail to renew his Consulting Agreement, then Mr. Naft’s equity will fully vest. The transition services agreement also contains a general release of claims against the Company and a non-disparagement provision.
