Employment Agreements with Certain Executive Officers
On March 31, 2016, Stewart Information Services Corporation (the "Company") entered into employment agreements, each effective January 1, 2016, with Matthew W. Morris, J. Allen Berryman, Steven M. Lessack, and John L. Killea in their capacities as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Group President and Chief Legal Officer, respectively (collectively, the "Agreements" and, each, an "Agreement"). The material terms of the Agreements are summarized below:
Terms
:
The terms of Messrs. Berryman, Lessack and Killea's Agreements are each one (1) year. The term of Mr. Morris' agreement is three (3) years. Each Agreement extends automatically on a year-to-year basis thereafter, unless terminated by either of the parties upon 90 days' notice prior to the end of a term.
Compensation and Benefits
:
Pursuant to the terms of their respective Agreements, Messrs. Morris, Berryman, Lessack, and Killea are entitled to receive annual salaries of not less than $550,000, $375,000, $475,000, and $375,000 per year, respectively, subject to increase at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), plus customary vacation, medical, dental and life insurance benefits and reimbursement of certain qualified business expenses by the Company.
Each of Messrs. Morris, Berryman, Lessack and Killea are eligible to receive an annual short term incentive cash payment pursuant to an incentive plan. Under such incentive plan, Mr. Morris' current target payout is 100% of base pay, or $550,000, Mr. Berryman's current target payout is 50% of base pay, or $187,500, Mr. Lessack's current target payout is 60% of base pay, or $285,000, and Mr. Killea's current target payout is 50% or $187,500. The maximum annual payment is two times the target payout under each Agreement. The payout amounts will be determined by the attainment towards metrics specific to the position and corporate performance.
Further, Messrs. Morris, Berryman, Lessack and Killea are entitled to participate in the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan. Currently, the target payouts under such plan for Mr. Morris, Mr. Berryman, Mr. Lessack and Mr. Killea are 200%, 85%, 50%, and 85% of their individual base pay, respectively. The awards under the plan will be paid out in the form of restricted stock awards and performance share awards. The payout amounts will be determined by the Board in its discretion taking into account certain corporate performance metrics, including Total Shareholder Return and Modified Earnings Per Share Growth (as defined in the Agreements) compared to the Russell 2000 Financial Services Index.
Payments Upon Qualifying Termination
:
Pursuant to the terms of their respective Agreements, each executive is entitled to receive certain benefits upon the termination of their employment under certain circumstances. In the event of (i) the Company's termination of their employment without "Cause" (as defined in the Agreements) during the term, (ii) their resignation for "Good Reason" (as defined in the Agreements) during the term, or (iii) their voluntary retirement, then such respective executive shall receive the following: (a) for Mr. Morris, a cash payment equal to 24 months of Mr. Morris' then-current salary in effect, or, for Messrs. Berryman, Lessack and Killea, a cash payment equal to 12 months of the then-current salary in effect; (b) continued medical and dental benefits equal to those that were in effect as of the date of termination and reimbursement of applicable COBRA premiums for a 12-month period following the termination date (or until the executive is eligible to receive benefits under another employer-provided plan or the executive dies); (c) Special Pro-Rata Vesting (as defined in the Agreements) of performance-based awards; (d) payments of accrued but unpaid salary, short term incentive and long-term incentive payments and accrued but unused vacation time; (e) any benefits that have vested as of the termination date as a result of participation in any of the Company's benefit plans; and (f) reimbursement of certain qualified business expenses by the Company. In the event that such termination of employment occurs during a Change in Control Period (as defined in the Agreements), or for Mr. Morris, during the 2016 calendar year, separate severance payments apply.
To receive the severance and benefits provided in the event of a qualifying termination, each executive must execute a release of claims included with the Employment Agreements.
The Agreements also include non-competition and non-solicitation covenants by each executive for a twelve-month period following termination of their employment with the Company for any reason.
