Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On October 23, 2019, CalAmp Corp. (the “Company”) entered into an Employment Agreement Amendment with Kurtis J. Binder, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (the “Amendment”).  

 

The Amendment provides that if Mr. Binder’s employment with the Company is terminated without “cause” or for “good reason” within three months prior to or 12 months following a change in control, then 100% of the then unvested equity awards held by Mr. Binder would become immediately vested. Prior to the Amendment, only 75% of the then unvested equity awards would have become vested.

 

The Amendment further provides that, to the extent that any payment or benefit received in connection with a change in control under the agreement would be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, such payments and/or benefits will be subject to a “best pay cap” reduction if such reduction would result in a greater net after-tax benefit to Mr. Binder than receiving the full amount of such payments.
