The information in Item 5.02 is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 5.02
 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On April 17, 2019, Nautilus, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Employment Agreement, effective January 1, 2018, with Christopher Quatrochi, the Company’s Senior Vice President Product Development (the “Agreement”). As previously reported, Mr. Quatrochi was appointed to his current position pursuant to an Offer Letter dated November 8, 2017 (the “Offer Letter”), under which he was issued 10,000 restricted stock units with a 3 year vesting term, subject to Mr. Quatrochi’s continued service through the completion of the vesting term (the “RSU Grant”). The Agreement supersedes the terms of the Offer Letter and all other prior agreements between the Company and Mr. Quatrochi, except that the terms of the RSU Grant remain unchanged.

Mr. Quatrochi’s initial base salary under the Agreement is $265,000 annually. Mr. Quatrochi will also be eligible for an annual bonus with a target amount of up to 50% of his annual base salary, payable based on achievement of corporate and/or personal performance goals at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Agreement entitles Mr. Quatrochi to certain severance payments and other benefits if his employment is terminated by the Company without “cause,” as defined in the Agreement. Upon any such termination of Mr. Quatrochi’s employment, and provided that he enters into a release agreement and meets certain other conditions, he would be entitled to a severance payment equal to four months of the average monthly amount of his then current annual base salary, and reimbursement for any COBRA coverage elected by Mr. Quatrochi for himself for a period of four months following such termination.
 
The foregoing summary of the material terms of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2019.
