Mr. Williams and the Company intend to execute a separation agreement (the “Separation Agreement,” the form of which is attached to the Transition Agreement) on the Separation Date. The Separation Agreement sets forth various terms regarding the treatment of other employee benefits that Mr. Williams is entitled to receive under the Company’s existing plans. As a material condition to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Williams is required to timely execute the Supplemental Release attached as an exhibit to the Separation Agreement, which includes a customary release of claims by him (on behalf of himself, his heirs, executors, administrators and assigns) in favor of the Company.

The foregoing description of the material terms of the Transition Agreement and the Separation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such agreements, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
