On February 28, 2019, Garo Sarkissian informed CalAmp Corp. (the “Company”) that he would retire from his position as Senior Vice President of Corporate Development, and from all other positions he held with the Company or its subsidiaries, effective February 28, 2019 (the “Retirement Date”). In connection with Mr. Sarkissian’s retirement, the Company and Mr. Sarkissian entered into a Separation and General Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”).  Mr. Sarkissian advised the Company that his decision to retire is for personal reasons and was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company.  

 

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement: (i) Mr. Sarkissian will receive three-months’ base salary, or $75,000 in the aggregate; (ii) for a ten-month period following the Retirement Date, the Company will pay the premiums in connection with Mr. Sarkissian’s participation in the Company’s health, dental and vision plans; and (iiii) on the Retirement Date, all of Mr. Sarkissian’s unvested equity in the Company will fully accelerate and become vested.

 

The foregoing are summaries of the material terms of the Separation Agreement, and do not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. The summary of the Separation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.
