Pursuant to a previously reported agreement, Michael B. Wheeler relinquished his duties as the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Executive Vice President and Treasurer of Tufco Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), effective on September 30, 2013.
The Company's Board of Directors has appointed Tim Splittgerber, the Company's current Vice President – Finance, to become Chief Financial Officer upon Mr. Wheeler's departure.  Mr. Splittgerber, age 49, has been the Vice President – Finance of the Company since March 1, 2012.  From January 2003 to February 2012, Mr. Splittgerber was an independent business consultant focusing on strategic planning, business assessments, and turnaround management.  Mr. Splittgerber is a certified public accountant and worked in public accounting in various capacities from January 1993 to December 2002, initially with Price Waterhouse, and most recently as the partner in charge of a regional office of Virchow Krause (now Baker Tilly Virchow Krause).
Mr. Splittgerber entered into an employment agreement with the Company (the "Employment Agreement"), effective October 1, 2013, pursuant to which Mr. Splittgerber shall serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company for an initial term of one year and for successive one-year renewal terms.  The Employment Agreement provides for a base salary of $170,000 and an annual bonus of up to 35% of his base salary (based upon the achievement of a pre-tax income target to be determined by the Company's Board of Directors).  Mr. Splittgerber will be entitled to six months of base salary continuation if he is terminated without cause during the term or if the Company decides not to renew the term.  The Employment Agreement prohibits Mr. Splittgerber from competing with the Company while employed by the Company and for one year after the later of his termination of employment or the termination of severance pay.
