In exchange for Mr. Howells' agreement to continue employment through June 5, 2015, to support and assist in the transition of his duties, to sign a release of claims and be bound by a non-compete and non-solicitation of employees for one year following his retirement, and in recognition of Mr. Howells' extraordinary services and loyalty to the Company as CFO and a Board member for many years, the Board of Directors has agreed that following the June 5^th retirement date, Mr. Howells will be paid one year's base salary over the typical bi-weekly pay periods, his fiscal year 2016 target bonus, at the time bonus payments are made to continuing employees, typically in April 2016, and the Company will allow him to continue to vest in the restricted stock units granted to him in April 2014 on the originally-scheduled vesting dates stated in 2016 and 2017. Mr. Howells will forfeit all other unvested equity awards held by him as of his retirement.

In its press release of April 14, 2015, the Company also announced that Charles V. Dannewitz, currently senior vice president and chief financial officer, the Americas, will succeed Mr. Howells as CFO of the Company.
