9. CEO Search and Transition Costs

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement between the Company and Mr. Levin dated March 20, 2018, as amended (the “Transition Agreement”), Mr. Levin is expected to resign as an officer and director of the Company on January 1, 2019, at which time he will be entitled to receive his base salary, AIP bonus and LTIP compensation over the following twelve months.  

 

On November 27, 2018, subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Mr. Levin (the “Letter Agreement”).  The Letter Agreement is a supplement to the Transition Agreement between the Company and Mr. Levin, and sets forth Mr. Levin’s initial transition duties and consulting activities that he will be required to perform under the terms of the Transition Agreement in the event that the Company does not appoint a successor CEO by December 31, 2018 and, pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement, Mr. Levin resigns as President and Chief Executive Officer and as a Director of the Company on January 1, 2019.

 

In accordance with the terms of the Letter Agreement, effective January 1, 2019, if no successor CEO has been appointed by December 31, 2018, Mr. Levin will begin serving as the Company’s acting CEO and, as such, its principal executive officer (collectively, “Acting CEO”) through the earliest of: (i) April 30, 2019 (subject to an extension by the Company on the same terms through no later than June 30, 2019); (ii) the date that a successor CEO commences employment or (iii) termination of his employment by the Company.  As compensation, Mr. Levin will receive $200,000 per month but in no event less than $800,000.

 

During the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2018, the Company incurred costs of approximately $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively, primarily related to the CEO search.
