Material Compensatory Agreement with Named Executive Officer
In connection with Mr. Young's resignation, the Company and Mr. Young entered into an Employment Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement"). Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Young $200,000, less applicable payroll taxes and deductions, and cover the costs of Mr. Young's health insurance continuation coverage under COBRA through December 2025 or until he obtains subsequent employment and/or coverage under another health insurance plan. Furthermore, should he receive care or incur health costs not covered by COBRA that are deemed necessary, the Company will reimburse him for those costs upon his submission of verifiable receipts and proof of payment. Additionally, under the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Young is entitled to his accrued and unpaid base salary through his last day of employment. He will also be paid for any unreimbursed expenses and all payments or benefits to which he is entitled under any applicable Company employee benefit plan. As consideration for the foregoing, Mr. Young has agreed to a general release of all claims against the Company and its affiliates and to a customary non-disparagement covenant.
