Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 14, 2018, we entered into amended and restated employments agreements (“Restated Agreements’) with our chief executive officer, Chad Carpenter, and chief financial officer, Thad Meyer. We had originally entered into employment agreements with Mr. Carpenter and Mr. Meyer in 2013 and since then have conducted multirole amendments to the original employment agreements, all of which have previously been disclosed in and filed as exhibits to our SEC reports. The purpose of the Restated Agreements is to incorporate all of the stand-alone amendments with respective original employment agreement into one integrated agreement. The Restated Agreements do not include any material changes to the terms of Mr. Carpenter’s or Mr. Meyers’s employment, with one exception. In his original employment agreement, as amended, Mr. Meyer was entitled to receive severance in the amount of one year’s salary, plus his target bonus for the current year, in the event he is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason. Pursuant to his Restated Agreement, Mr. Meyer is now entitled to severance in either event in the amount of two year’s salary, plus his target bonus for the current year. The Restated Agreements were approved by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors.
The foregoing description of the Restated Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Restated Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2.
