On
November 27, 2007, the Board of Directors of the
Company appointed Mark J. Rubash, age 50, as Chief Financial
Officer of the Company, effective November 29,
2007.
|
Before
joining the Company, Mr. Rubash served as Chief Financial Officer of Rearden
Commerce, Inc., a private software development company, since August
2007. Prior to that, he served as Senior Vice President, Finance of
Yahoo! Inc. from February 2007 to August 2007. Prior to joining
Yahoo!, from February 2001 to July 2005 Mr. Rubash held various positions at
eBay Inc. including Chief Accounting Officer, Vice President for Finance and
Investor Relations and Vice President North America Finance. Mr.
Rubash currently serves as a director of Intuitive Surgical, Inc., a public
company.
In
connection with this appointment, the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company (“Compensation Committee”) approved, and Mr. Rubash and
the Company entered into, an Offer Letter of Employment dated November 27,
2007
(“Offer Letter”). Pursuant to the Offer Letter, Mr. Rubash will
receive annual base salary of $280,000 and will be eligible for a bonus of
up to
30% of base salary under the Executive Bonus Plan to be approved by the
Compensation Committee for 2008. In addition, Mr. Rubash received a
$37,500 hire-in bonus, repayable on a pro-rata basis if Mr. Rubash leaves the
Company within 12 months of his employment start date.
The
Offer
Letter further provides that, if Mr. Rubash’s employment with the Company is
involuntarily terminated without cause after the expiration of 90 days since
the
start of Mr. Rubash’s employment, Mr. Rubash will be entitled to a severance
payment of six months base salary, payable over six months, if Mr. Rubash signs
a release of claims in favor of the Company.
In
addition, pursuant to the Offer Letter, if the Company is subject to a change
in
control and within six months after that (i) Mr. Rubash resigns because he
is no longer the Chief Financial Officer of the Company or due to a material
diminution of his role with the Company immediately before such change of
control, (ii) Mr. Rubash resigns because or relocation of the Company’s
corporate office or (iii) Mr. Rubash’s employment is terminated by the Company,
or a successor entity, other than for cause, then Mr. Rubash will receive the
severance payment described above and, if Mr. Rubash’s Company options are
assumed by the successor entity, he will vest in an additional number of shares
as would have vested in the twelve (12) months following the date of such
termination, and the options shall remain exercisable for the applicable period
specified in the stock option agreement. Receipt of these benefits is
conditioned on execution by Mr. Rubash of a release of claims in favor of the
Company.
Mr.
Rubash will also be entitled to standard Company employee benefits.
In
addition, the Compensation Committee also granted Mr. Rubash a stock option
to
purchase 270,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of
$28.49 per share. This option is not pursuant to a shareholder approved plan
but
is pursuant to a NASDAQ approved exception. The option is subject to terms,
conditions and restrictions similar to those contained in the Company’s 2006
Equity Incentive Plan.
