5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS
OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
Resignation
of David E. Vautrin as Chief Executive Officer, Assumption of Principal Executive Duties by Charles Joiner
On
March 16, 2017 David E. Vautrin, Chief Executive Officer of XFit Brands, Inc. (the “Registrant”), resigned his officer
positions with the Registrant, to pursue other opportunities. Mr. Vautrin did not resign as a result of any disagreement with
the Registrant and will remain a member of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has begun a search process for a new
chief executive officer. Until a successor is identified or otherwise directed, David E. Vautrin has agreed to act as interim
principal executive officer, and Charles Joiner, who currently serves as President of the Registrant and a member of its Board
of Directors, will assume the operational responsibilities of the business. Mr. Vautrin is not receiving compensation as interim
principal executive officer.
In
connection with Mr. Vautrin’s resignation, Mr. Vautrin agreed to extend the date by which accrued and unpaid salary and
vacation pay from the 72 hours mandated under California law for 90 days to June 16, 2017. This amounts to $61,133.03. Mr. Vautrin
can, at his sole election, convert such compensation as listed above in shares of the Registrant’s common stock at the lessor
of 15 cents or 25% discount to the fair market value on the date of election of Mr. Vautrin. For the purposes of Waiver, the “fair
market value” shall be shall be the prior ten-day volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the common stock
on the principal trading market determined as of date Mr. Vautrin elects the option to convert to common stock pursuant to the
Waiver Agreement.
In
addition, Mr. Vautrin has personally guaranteed the Registrant’s $35,000 line of credit with Wells Fargo and its corporate
credit card with a $50,000 credit limit. The Registrant has agreed to stop using these credit facilities and to pay them off or
otherwise obtain a release of Mr. Vautrin’s guarantee within 90 days. In the event that it is determined by Mr. Vautrin
that his guaranty can not be removed, then Mr. Vautrin at his sole discretion can take action to remove his name as the CEO and
or guarantee to any banking or Registrant related documents. In the event that the Registrant does not payoff in full the $35,000
working capital line and credit card in full within the 90 days, then Mr. Vautrin can, at his sole election, convert the balance
of such personally guaranteed obligations as listed above into shares of the Registrant’s common stock at the lessor of
$0.15 per share or a 50% discount to the fair market value (as defined above) on the date of election of Mr. Vautrin and payoff
such upon receipt from such new share issuance. The Registrant will pay the costs of any legal opinion required for removal of
restrictive legend for shares issued pursuant to this Agreement.
If
permitted under the Registrant’s health plan, and at Mr. Vautrin’s sole discretion, he may off set the back pay with
continued use of the existing current health and car insurance coverage for him and his family.
