The information in this Item 2.02 (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.  

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On January 5, 2026, the Company entered into an amended and restated executive employment agreement (the “A&R Employment Agreement”) with Joseph Todisco, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to the A&R Employment Agreement, Mr. Todisco will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and will also serve as the Chairman of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”).

Pursuant to the A&R Employment Agreement, Mr. Todisco’s annual base salary increased from $665,000 to $750,000 effective as of January 1, 2026 and his target annual bonus opportunity increased from 65% to 75% of his base salary, beginning with the Company’s 2026 fiscal year, with the actual amount of any annual bonus to be determined based on achievement of Company and individual objectives set by the Board (or its compensation committee) after consultation with Mr. Todisco. Mr. Todisco will also be eligible to receive grants pursuant to the Company’s 2019 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan or any successor thereto (the “Equity Plan”) from time to time as determined by the Board (or its compensation committee).

 

Upon a termination of Mr. Todisco’s employment by the Company other than for Cause (as defined in the A&R Employment Agreement) (other than as a result of death or disability) or by him for Good Reason (as defined in the A&R Employment Agreement), and subject to Mr. Todisco’s execution and non-revocation of a customary release of claims, Mr. Todisco will be entitled to the following severance benefits: (i) continuation of base salary for 18 months (or, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a Corporate Transaction (as defined in the Equity Plan), 200% of the sum of base salary and target bonus, paid over 24 months), (ii) payment of a prorated annual bonus for the year of termination based on the actual achievement of the specified bonus objectives, (iii) subsidized COBRA premiums for up to 18 months (or, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a Corporate Transaction, for up to 24 months), (iv) acceleration of unvested equity awards scheduled to vest on or before the next succeeding anniversary of the date of his termination, provided that performance-based awards will not accelerate unless and until their performance conditions are satisfied (or, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a Corporate Transaction, full acceleration of all unvested equity awards), and (v) any then-unpaid bonus in respect of service during the year preceding the year of termination.

 

The A&R Employment Agreement also contains customary confidentiality and non-disparagement covenants and non-competition and non-solicitation of employees and customers covenants that apply during employment and for a period of 18 months following any termination of employment.
