In connection the Appointments, Exclusive Jets, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company and subsidiary of the Company (“Exclusive Jets”), entered into employment agreements with each of Messrs. Garner, Lesmeister and Guina (each an “Employment Agreement” and together the “Employment Agreements”), dated September 26, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), on substantially identical terms. Pursuant to the Employment Agreements, the Company has agreed to provide each Appointee with (i) a base salary of $500,000, (ii) a discretionary annual bonus of up to 50% of the base salary, based upon the achievement of certain objectives set each year, half of which objectives for the Company and the other half will objectives set for the Appointee, (iii) eligibility to receive up to $250,000 in each calendar year through long-term incentive plan (the “LTIP”), subject to the Board’s approval of the LTIP, and (iv) the following stock options to purchase shares of Company Class A common stock (the “stock options”) which vest over three years: 1,600,000 stock options on the Effective Date, 800,000 stock options on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and 800,000 stock options on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, in each case subject to Board approval.
Each Employment Agreement is terminable at any time. The Company may terminate the Employee for “Cause” or for “Disability,” each as defined in the Employment Agreement. The Employee may terminate employment for “Good Reason,” as defined in the Employment Agreement, and which includes a material reduction by the Company of the Employee’s duties, responsibilities or authority, a relocation of the Company’s principal place of business to which the Employee reports more than 25 miles from its immediately preceding location, and a material reduction in the Employee’s annual base salary unless all officers experience an equal or greater percentage reduction in annual salary and/or total compensation.
In the event of the Employee’s termination other than for death or Disability or for Cause, (i) the Company will
continue to pay to Employee his base salary for a period of six months unless the termination occurs at the time of or within the 12 months immediately following a Change in Control (as defined in the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan) in which case the Company will continue to pay to Employee his Base Salary for a period of 12 months, (ii) if Employee timely elects continued health insurance coverage under COBRA, the Company will pay the entire premium necessary to continue such coverage for Employee and Employee's eligible dependents until the conclusion of the time when Employee is receiving continuation of Base Salary payments or until Employee becomes eligible for group health insurance coverage under another employer's plan, whichever occurs first, provided however that the Company has the right to terminate such payment of COBRA premiums on behalf of Employee and instead pay Employee a lump sum amount equal to the COBRA premium times the number of months remaining in the specified period if the
Company determines in its discretion that continued payment of the COBRA premiums is or may be discriminatory under Section 105(h) of the Code, and (iii) the Company will provide such other or additional benefits, if any, as may be provided under applicable employee benefit plans, programs and/or arrangements of the Company.
