Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On April 27, 2015, the Board of Directors of TSR, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an Executive Employment Agreement for John G. Sharkey, the Company’s Vice President-Finance, Controller and Secretary. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors recommended that the Board of Directors approve the Executive Employment Agreement.
The term of Mr. Sharkey’s current employment agreement with the Company is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2015, and the new Executive Employment Agreement will be effective as of June 1, 2015 and has a term of five years. The new Executive Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary of $250,000, which is subject to increase in the discretion of the President of the Company. In addition, the new Executive Employment Agreement provides for an annual discretionary bonus to be determined by the Compensation Committee based on recommendation of the President of the Corporation, based on standards relating to Mr. Sharkey’s performance and the Company’s performance as determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee and based on the recommendation of the President of the Company.
Mr. Sharkey has the right to terminate the Executive Employment Agreement within 90 days after the occurrence of a “Change in Control” of the Company (as such term is defined in the Executive Employment Agreement). In the event that Mr. Sharkey terminates his employment following a Change in Control, Mr. Sharkey is entitled to receive (i) his full salary at the rate then in effect through the date of termination plus an amount equal to two times the annual salary payable under the Executive Employment Agreement at the rate then in effect, (ii) an amount equal to the pro rata portion of the bonus to which he is entitled for the then current year (based on the portion of the year through the date of termination) through the date of termination or if such amount cannot be determined, the pro rata portion of the bonus paid for the preceding year through the date of termination plus an amount equal to the bonus payable for a two year period based on the annual bonus payable for the then current year, or if such amount cannot be determined, the amount of the bonus paid for the prior year and (iii) all employee benefits that Mr. Sharkey is entitled to receive under the Executive Employment Agreement for a period of two years.
A copy of Mr. Sharkey’s Executive Employment Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
