Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On October 2, 2020 S&T Bancorp, Inc. ("S&T") announced that Todd D. Brice will retire as Chief Executive Officer of S&T and S&T Bank, and as a member of the Boards of Directors of S&T and S&T Bank, effective March 31, 2021.
In connection with Mr. Brice's retirement, S&T and Mr. Brice entered into a letter agreement intended to facilitate a smooth transition and restrict Mr. Brice's business activities for a period following his retirement. Under the letter agreement, Mr. Brice has agreed to remain as Chief Executive Officer of S&T and S&T Bank through his retirement on March 31, 2021, and thereafter to provide advisory services to S&T and S&T Bank during the period from his retirement until the third anniversary thereof. The advisory services include providing support, advice and counsel to the successor Chief Executive Officer, assisting in maintaining and developing community, customer, regulatory and business relationships and assisting with special projects. In addition, the letter agreement subjects Mr. Brice to restrictive covenants concerning nondisclosure of confidential information and nondisparagement, which are perpetual, and noncompetition and nonsolicitation of customers, employees and other service providers of S&T and S&T Bank, which apply during the consulting period and for one year thereafter. In consideration for Mr. Brice's services and commitments under the letter agreement, he will be eligible for a consulting fee of $720,000 per year during the consulting period, continued vesting of his outstanding equity awards during the consulting period, subsidized health insurance benefits (or a cash stipend) during the consulting period and for one year thereafter and continued use of a company automobile and reimbursement of club dues during the consulting period. Mr. Brice or his beneficiaries will remain eligible for such compensation and benefits in the event that the consulting period is terminated before its scheduled expiration date without cause, by Mr. Brice due to S&T's material breach of the letter agreement or Mr. Brice's death or disability. Mr. Brice must execute a release of claims in favor of S&T and its affiliates within 30 days following his retirement date in order to receive the compensation and benefits contemplated by the letter agreement.
The foregoing summary of the letter agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such letter agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
