Item 5.02 |
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers |
(b) On December 4, 2009, ClearOne Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) provided notice of termination to Joseph P. Sorrentino, Executive Vice President of World Wide Sales.
On December 4, 2009, E. Bryan Bagley, a director of the Company entered into a 10b5-1(c) Stock Purchase Plan (“Plan”) to purchase Company’s common stock (“Plan shares”).
Principal terms of the Plan include the following:
A broker (“Broker”) has been engaged to purchase up to an aggregate of 200,000 Plan shares at a purchase price of not more than $3.00 per share. The timing and execution of all purchases will be made at the sole discretion of the Broker.
The plan would be effective from December 5, 2009 and would terminate no later than December 31, 2010. However, the plan would terminate earlier on a date when 200,000 shares have been purchased in accordance with the terms of this Plan. The Plan may also be terminated by Bagley at any time upon written notice delivered to Broker with a copy of the notice provided to the Secretary of the Company.
All purchases under the Plan will be reported by Bagley through Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Bagley will cease all purchases under the Plan promptly upon notice from the Secretary of ClearOne that the independent directors of the Company’s Board of Directors have determined that purchases under the Plan must be suspended for the period determined by those directors. In this regard, Bagley acknowledges that it may be necessary
or appropriate for the Company to instruct him to suspend purchases under the Plan in connection with events, including without limitation public or private offerings of securities, mergers or acquisitions, tender offers or similar events.
The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act and this Plan shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).
