1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
As
of
August 21, 2006, Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Prestige Brands Holdings”) and Prestige Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and wholly-owned subsidiary of Prestige Brands Holdings (“Prestige Brands,”
together with Prestige Brands Holdings, the “Company”) entered into an Executive
Employment Agreement with Jean A. Boyko, Ph.D. (the “Boyko Employment
Agreement”) pursuant to which Ms. Boyko shall serve as the Company’s Senior Vice
President, Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs. During the term of Ms.
Boyko’s employment, the Company will pay to her a base salary of $225,000 per
annum. In addition, Ms. Boyko shall be eligible for and participate in the
Company’s Annual Incentive Compensation Plan under which she shall be eligible
for an annual target bonus payment of 45% of annual base salary. During the
term
of Ms. Boyko’s employment with the Company, she will be entitled to such other
benefits approved by the Board of Directors and made available to the senior
management of the Company, which shall include vacation time and medical,
dental, life and disability insurance. The Board of Directors, on a basis
consistent with past practice, shall review the annual base salary of Ms. Boyko
and may increase the annual base salary by such amount as the Board of
Directors, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Boyko Employment Agreement, Ms. Boyko’s employment will
continue until (i) her death, disability or resignation from employment with
the
Company; or (ii) the Company decides to terminate Ms. Boyko’s employment with or
without cause. If (A) Ms. Boyko’s employment is terminated without cause; or (B)
Ms. Boyko resigns from employment with the Company for good reason, then during
the period commencing on the date of termination of employment and ending on
the
first anniversary date thereof, the Company shall pay to Ms. Boyko, in equal
installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll, an aggregate
amount equal to (I) Ms. Boyko’s annual base salary, plus (II) an amount equal to
the annual bonus, if any, paid or payable to Ms. Boyko by the Company for the
last fiscal year ended prior to the date of termination. In addition, if Ms.
Boyko is entitled on the date of termination to coverage under the medical
and
prescription portions of the welfare plans, such coverage shall continue for
Ms.
Boyko and her covered dependents for a period ending on the first anniversary
of
the date of termination at the active employee cost payable by Ms. Boyko with
respect to those costs paid by Ms. Boyko prior to the date of termination.
Upon
execution of the Boyko Employment Agreement, Prestige Brands Holdings granted
an
award of 4,772 shares of restricted common stock to Ms. Boyko that may vest
on a
sliding-scale upon completion of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009 if
certain revenue and earnings per share targets are achieved by the
Company.
The
Boyko
Employment Agreement also contains certain confidentiality, non-competition
and
non-solicitation provisions as well as other provisions that are customary
for
an executive employment agreement.
