A Qualifying Termination includes termination by the company without “cause” or by the executive for “good reason.” Benefits include a lump-sum cash payment equal to annual base salary, a pro-rated annual incentive bonus based on actual full-year performance, continued employer portion of medical, dental, and vision premiums for up to 12 months, outplacement services for up to 12 months capped at $10,000, and equity awards treated under existing plans.
Benefits require a release of claims and compliance with confidentiality, non-disparagement, cooperation, and, where enforceable, one-year non-competition and non-solicitation covenants. The policy is administered by the Compensation Committee and may be amended or terminated without impairing benefits already triggered. The full text will be filed with the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2025.
