(b) and (e)
On August 29, 2011, The Western Union Company (the Company) issued a press release announcing that the Company and David Yates, Executive Vice President and President, Business
Development and Innovation, have reached a mutual agreement whereby Mr. Yates would separate from his employment with the Company effective September 30, 2011 (the Termination Date). A copy of the press release is attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
On August 25, 2011, Western Union, LLC (WU LLC), a subsidiary of the Company, and
Mr. Yates entered into a Mutual Separation Agreement and Release (the Agreement).
Pursuant to the Agreement:
|
|
|
Provided that the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Companys Board of Directors has certified that the applicable performance goals
under the Companys Senior Executive Annual Incentive Plan have been achieved for 2011, Mr. Yates will receive a bonus under such Plan for 2011, equal to 75% of the bonus Mr. Yates would have been eligible to receive had he not
separated employment from WU LLC.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Yates outstanding equity awards shall be governed by the terms of the applicable award agreements as they apply to an award holder who
is not eligible for benefits under the Companys Severance/Change in Control Policy (Executive Committee Level) and who has voluntarily terminated employment with the Company on the Termination Date. Accordingly, all of Mr. Yates
outstanding and unvested equity awards will be forfeited on the Termination Date.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Yates will receive a lump sum cash payment in the gross amount of $100,000 intended to defray costs incurred by him in connection with his
relocation from Colorado to the United Kingdom, and in exchange for certain non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality commitments by Mr. Yates.
|
In addition, Western Union Financial Services, Inc., an affiliate of the Company (WUFSI), and Mr. Yates intend to enter into a consulting agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Yates would
receive payments totaling approximately $1,500,000 in the aggregate during the period from October 1, 2011 to February 28, 2013, in exchange for consulting services to WUFSI, and certain non-competition, non-solicitation, and
confidentiality commitments by Mr. Yates.
