(e) As previously disclosed, American Reprographics Company (the “Company”) announced, on April 14, 2011, that Jonathan R. Mather, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, has chosen not to relocate to Northern California in connection with the Company’s consolidation initiatives, including relocation of the Company’s corporate finance and accounting functions within the Company’s executive offices in Walnut Creek, California and intends to retire from the Company in the near future.
The Company and Mr. Mather have entered into a Separation Agreement in connection with Mr. Mather’s departure from the Company (the “Separation Agreement”). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Mather’s employment with the Company will end on June 30, 2011, provided, however, that if no replacement Chief Financial Officer is appointed by June 30, 2011, then the separation date will be extended until the earlier of the date on which a replacement Chief Financial Officer is appointed or August 31, 2011. The Separation Agreement provides that, in exchange for execution of a general release in favor of the Company, Mr. Mather will be entitled to (a) payment of his base salary of $375,000 (less applicable deductions) through the separation date; (b) payment of his full base salary of $375,000 for a period of twelve months following the separation date; (c) continuation of health benefits under the Company’s health benefit plans until the age of 65 (with the full cost of premiums for the first twelve months following the separation date being paid by the Company); (d) extension of the exercise period of Mr. Mather’s outstanding stock options; and (e) acceleration of vesting of Mr. Mather’s restricted stock awards in accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement.
The foregoing summary of the Separation Agreement is not a complete description of the terms of such agreement and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
