Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain
Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Resignation of Mr. Civera
On November 10, 2011, Edward S. Civera retired as Chairman of the Board of Directors and as a Director of Catalyst Health Solutions, Inc. (the
Company), effective December 31, 2011. Mr. Civeras retirement is not the result of any disagreement or other dispute with the Company on any matter relating to the Companys operations, policies or practices.
Appointment of Mr. Blair as Chairman of the Board of Directors
On November 10, 2011, David T. Blair was named as the Companys Chairman of the Board of Directors, effective January 1, 2012, in addition to his current responsibilities as Chief Executive
Officer of the Company.
Employment Agreement for Mr. Blair
On November 10, 2011, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Blair. The new employment agreement supersedes his prior employment agreement in its entirety. The employment
agreement provides that Mr. Blair shall serve as the Companys Chief Executive Officer and, effective January 1, 2012, Chairman of the Board of Directors, in each case, through February 28, 2015.
The agreement provides for an initial base salary of $795,000, subject to annual review by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, and the
opportunity to earn an annual cash incentive award based on performance ranging from between 0% to 200% of base salary. The agreement entitles Mr. Blair to a one-time award of restricted shares of the Companys common stock, which
the Board of Directors approved on November 10, 2011, with a target vesting amount of 75,000 shares and a potential award range of 0-200% of target. The restricted shares are eligible to vest over a three-year period beginning
January 1, 2012 based upon the achievement of performance goals related to total shareholder return, diluted earnings per share growth and management development, subject to accelerated vesting at target level (100%) upon a termination of
employment within 12 months after a change in control of the Company. To the extent these restricted shares vest, they will be non-transferrable by Mr. Blair until the earlier of January 1, 2016 or a change in control of the Company,
except to the extent he elects to sell some of the shares to satisfy tax obligations that arise at the time of vesting.
If
Mr. Blairs employment is terminated by the Company without cause or due to Mr. Blairs resignation for good reason, then subject to his executing a general release of claims, Mr. Blair will be entitled to receive (i) a
cash payment equal to two times the sum of his then-current base salary and average annual incentive bonus for the preceding three years, payable in equal installments over the 24 month period following the date of his termination
(ii) continued healthcare benefits for 24 months and (iii) accelerated vesting of all equity awards subject primarily to time-based vesting conditions that would have vested if Mr. Blair remained employed during the 12 month period
following the date of his termination of employment. If Mr. Blairs employment is terminated by the Company without cause or due to Mr. Blairs resignation for good reason within the 12 month period following a change in control
of the company, Mr. Blair will be entitled to the foregoing severance benefits except that the cash payments will be paid in a lump sum on the 60th day following his termination and, in addition, Mr. Blair will be entitled to accelerated
vesting at target level of all equity awards that are subject primarily to performance-based vesting conditions. If Mr. Blairs employment is terminated due to his death or disability, then Mr. Blair or his estate, as applicable, will
be entitled to receive continued healthcare benefits for 12 months and accelerated vesting of all equity awards subject primarily to time-based vesting conditions that would have vested if Mr. Blair remained employed during the 12 month period
following the date of his termination of employment.
Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Blair is subject to certain restrictions,
including a 24 month non-solicit of customers, 24 month non-solicit and no-hire of employees and a 24 month non-compete. The employment agreement also provides for non-disclosure of confidential information into perpetuity and an assignment of
inventions in favor of the Company.
