FitzGerald. The Agreement supersedes his previous employment agreement dated March&#160;21, 2013, as amended on February&#160;19, 2018. The Agreement memorializes Mr.&#160;FitzGerald&#8217;s current base salary (which remains unchanged since his promotion to CEO in 2019) and eligibility to participate in the Company&#8217;s management incentive programs. </p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the Agreement, which has an initial term ending on December&#160;31, 2024, Mr.&#160;FitzGerald will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and MMI. Mr.&#160;FitzGerald will continue to receive a base salary of $975,000 and shall continue to be eligible to participate in the Company&#8217;s management incentive programs. </p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the Agreement, Mr.&#160;FitzGerald&#8217;s employment may be terminated by the Company or by Mr.&#160;FitzGerald at any time. If the Company terminates Mr.&#160;FitzGerald&#8217;s employment without &#8220;cause&#8221; (as defined in the Agreement), or if Mr.&#160;FitzGerald resigns his employment due to a material diminution of his duties as Chief Executive Officer, under the terms of the Agreement, Mr.&#160;FitzGerald will be entitled to (i)&#160;a lump sum payment equal to three times the sum of: (x)&#160;his annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to the date of termination and (y)&#160;the greater of (A)&#160;the amount of his annual bonus paid under the Company&#8217;s Value Creation Incentive Plan with respect to the full calendar year immediately prior to the date of termination and (B)&#160;the average of the annual bonuses paid to him under the Value Creation Incentive Plan for each of the three calendar years immediately prior to the date of termination and (ii)&#160;continued coverage under any medical, dental, vision, disability and life insurance program or policy maintained by the Company for twenty-four (24)&#160;months. In the event that Mr.&#160;FitzGerald&#8217;s employment is terminated without cause, or due to his death or disability, to the extent that incentive compensation would be earned and payable under the Value Creation Incentive Plan had Mr.&#160;FitzGerald remained employed on the last day of the fiscal year of termination, Mr.&#160;FitzGerald would be entitled to receive a <span style="white-space:nowrap">pro-rated</span> payout based on the number of days he was employed during the fiscal year of such termination. </p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the event that any amount payable to Mr.&#160;FitzGerald is deemed under the Internal Revenue Code to be made in connection with a change in control of the Company, and such payments would result in the excise tax imposed on &#8220;excess parachute payments&#8221; under the Internal Revenue Code (an &#8220;Excise Tax&#8221;), the Agreement provides that Mr.&#160;FitzGerald&#8217;s payments will be reduced to an amount that would not result in the imposition of the Excise Tax, to the extent that such reduction would result in a greater <span style="white-space:nowrap">after-tax</span> benefit to Mr.&#160;FitzGerald. </p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing summary of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. </p> <p style="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&#160;</p>
