(b) On May 28, 2015, MSB Financial Corp. (the “Company”) announced that Jeffrey E. Smith, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer would be retiring effective June 4, 2015. As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 9, 2015, Robert G. Russell, Jr., Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, is currently serving as Acting Chief Financial Officer as Mr. Smith has been on extended medical leave. The Company anticipates that Mr. Russell will continue to serve as Acting Chief Financial Officer until the Company is able to find a replacement.
On June 17, 2015, Millington Savings Bank (the “Bank”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant and Mr. Smith entered into an Agreement and General Release (the “Agreement”), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. The Agreement provides that the Bank will make a payment of $155,860.12 which represents fifty-two weeks of salary at his base rate. In addition, the Bank will pay 100% of the costs of his premiums for group dental and medical insurance through August 31, 2015 and, thereafter, the Bank will continue to pay 50% of the premiums for the remainder of his life. In exchange for such payments, Mr. Smith signed the Agreement including a general release of any and all claims, known or unknown, against Millington Savings Bank and its subsidiaries and affiliates. The Company also agreed to make a cash payment to Mr. Smith in full settlement of his 22,033 stock options which had been previously awarded and were all fully vested. Such payment will be equal to the fair market value of the shares of Company common stock on such date of option cancellation less the per share exercise price of such stock options of $10.75, multiplied by the number of stock options held. A copy of the Stock Option Cancellation Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Mr. Smith is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
