On 24-Jul-2025 Provident Financial Services (PFS) filed an 8-K announcing board approval of the Provident Bank Executive Severance Plan. Participation is limited to executives selected by the Compensation & Human Capital Committee and is conditional on waiving existing change-in-control agreements, preventing duplicate payouts. If terminated by the company without “cause,” a participant receives:
- cash severance equal to 1× base salary
- 1× target annual cash incentive
- company-paid health coverage for up to 12 months (via COBRA) and six months of outplacement services
Upon termination without cause—or resignation for “good reason”—within two years after a change-in-control, benefits escalate to 2× the above amounts for Valerie O. Murray and Ravi Vakacherla and 3× for CFO Thomas M. Lyons, plus a lump-sum payment equal to 12 months of COBRA premiums. The plan does not include excise-tax gross-ups; payments will be cut if necessary to avoid Section 4999 taxes when that yields a higher after-tax value for the executive. No financial statements or pro-forma data accompany the filing.
