On October 24, 2022, Electromed, Inc. (the "Company") announced the selection of Bradley M. Nagel to serve as the Company's next Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, beginning November 14, 2022. Mr. Nagel, age 41, most recently served as Divisional Chief Financial Officer of Global Lung Health and Visualization at Medtronic, plc since June 2018. Previously, he served at Medtronic plc as Sr. Manager, Accounting and Sales Operations from 2016 to June 2018 and Accounting Manager from 2015 to 2016. Before joining Medtronic, Mr. Nagel held various roles of increasing responsibility in sales, operations and accounting at Target Corporation and TCF Financial Corporation. Mr. Nagel holds a bachelor's degree in Business & Finance from Calvin University.
The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Nagel, to become effective as of November 14, 2022, pursuant to which he will receive an initial annual base salary of $250,000. He will be eligible to participate in the Company's annual officer bonus plan, beginning with the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, with a target payout equal to 30% of annual base salary, prorated to reflect the portion of the fiscal year served. He also will be eligible to participate in the Company's annual equity incentive grants and will receive an initial grant of 5,000 shares of restricted stock under the Company's 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, effective as of his first day of employment and scheduled to vest in full upon the one-year anniversary of the same. He is entitled to a monthly vehicle allowance, in addition to eligibility to participate in the other compensation and benefits programs generally available to Company employees.
If his employment is terminated by us for any reason other than for "cause" (as defined in his employment agreement) or is terminated by him for "good reason" (as defined in his employment agreement), then he will be eligible to (A) receive an amount equal to (i) one times his annualized base salary as of the termination date, plus (ii) an amount equal to 100% of the portion (if any) of his target annual bonus that was based on individual performance for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, plus (iii) an amount equal to the portion of his target annual bonus that was based on Company performance for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, pro-rated based on the portion of the fiscal year that had elapsed prior to the termination date, and (B) have us continue to pay the Company portion of COBRA premiums for up to 12 months. If such a termination of employment by us occurs within 60 days before a Change in Control or twelve months after a change of control, he may be eligible for enhanced severance.
If any such termination occurs within twelve months after a change of control, then he would instead be eligible to (A) receive an amount equal to (i) 1.5 times his annualized base salary as of the termination date, plus (ii) 150% of the portion (if any) of his target annual bonus that was based on individual performance for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, plus (iii) the same pro-rated portion of his target annual bonus that was based on Company performance, (B) have us continue to pay the Company portion of COBRA premiums for up to 18 months, and (C) all outstanding equity-based awards on the date of termination will vest in full, remain exercisable for the remainder of their original term (as applicable) and, to the extent vesting is based on satisfaction of one or more performance criteria, he would continue to be entitled to vest based on actual performance.
All of the foregoing severance benefits remain contingent on Mr. Nagel signing and not revoking a release of claims and his remaining in strict compliance with the terms of his employment agreement, any supplemental non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality agreement with the Company, and any other written agreement between him and the Company.
Michelle C. Wirtz, the Company's interim Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, will cease to serve in those positions upon the commencement of Mr. Nagel's employment. Ms. Wirtz is expected to retain her existing position as Corporate Controller.
The foregoing description of the material terms of Mr. Nagel's employment agreement is qualified by the text of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
