In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K furnished pursuant to Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and it shall not 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.
Effective July 26, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed Kieran J. McGrath, currently the Company’s Senior Vice President and Corporate Controller, as Senior Vice President and interim Chief Financial Officer.
Since 2014, Kieran J. McGrath, age 57, has been the Senior Vice President and Corporate Controller for the Company. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. McGrath worked for the IBM Corporation for over thirty years where he held a variety of senior executive Finance positions across the IBM Corporation. In his most recent IBM experience, he led Finance for IBM's Software Group ($25 Billion of Annual Mainframe and Distributed Software Revenue) from 2009 until 2014. Mr. McGrath holds a B.S. in Accounting from St. John's University.
In connection with Mr. McGrath’s appointment, Mr. McGrath will be eligible for a $500,000 transition payment, payable in equal installments of $250,000 on each of the six-month anniversary and first anniversary of his appointment, and a grant of $500,000 in restricted stock units on August 15, 2016, vesting in substantially equal installments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date. If Mr. McGrath’s employment is terminated without “cause” (as defined in Mr. McGrath’s offer letter with the Company), then he will be paid his existing severance entitlement, consisting of 12 months’ base salary, and any unpaid portion of the transition payment.
Mr. McGrath succeeds Richard J. Beckert, who had served as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer since 2011. The Company agreed with Mr. Beckert that it was the appropriate time to transition the role, and he retired as Chief Financial Officer effective July 26, 2016. Mr. Beckert is continuing as an employee of the Company for an interim period, and any separation arrangements have not yet been determined.
