Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (the "Company") announced on February 22, 2019 that its President and Chief Executive Officer Paul Isabella will leave the Company during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019. In connection with his departure, the Company and Mr. Isabella have executed an Employment and Post-Employment Exclusive Consulting Agreement dated February 25, 2019 (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Isabella will remain President and CEO, and a director, until his successor’s start date, after which he will resign as a director but remain a full-time employee until his separation date, anticipated to be approximately 60 days after such start date. The other material terms of the Agreement are as follows: a) payment of current base salary and participation in benefit plans through the separation date; b) payment of any earned bonus for fiscal year 2019, prorated through the separation date; c) payment of a monthly exclusive consulting retainer of $58,000 a month following the separation date to the final payment date 24 months later; and d) provision of continued health insurance for Mr. Isabella and his family at active employee rates until he reaches Medicare age or otherwise becomes eligible for other health benefits. Any unvested stock options and restricted stock units will continue to vest from the separation date to the final payment date as if Mr. Isabella remained an active employee. Vested stock options may be exercised for one year following the final payment date. Benefits under the Agreement are subject to Mr. Isabella’s execution of a general release and compliance with his existing Restrictive Covenant Agreement as if he remained employed by the Company through the final payment date.
