On October 12, 2020 the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of S&T Bancorp, Inc. (S&T) granted 43,696 shares of restricted stock to David G. Antolik, S&T’s President and Chief Lending Officer and 19,057 shares of restricted stock to Mark Kochvar, S&T’s Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, (the “Awards”), pursuant to the S&T Bancorp, Inc. 2014 Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the restricted stock award agreements (the “Award Agreements”), the common stock covered by the Awards will vest 33% on October 12, 2021, 33% on October 12, 2022, and 34% on October 12, 2023.
Under the terms of the Award Agreements, if Mr. Antolik or Mr. Kochvar terminates his employment from S&T due to death or disability prior to a vesting date, the Awards will vest on a pro-rata basis based upon the total number of full months worked since the most recent vesting date (or, if no vesting date has occurred, the grant date) divided by 12. In addition, if S&T terminates the employment of the Mr. Antolik or Mr. Kochvar not for Cause (as defined in the Award Agreements) prior to full vesting of any shares covered by the Awards, the remaining shares will vest in full. Other than as discussed above, as of the effective date of termination the Awards, to the extent not previously vested, will be forfeited. Additionally, Mr. Antolik and Mr. Kochvar agree to abide by the restrictive covenants contained in the Severance Agreements (defined and described below) as though such covenants were contained in the Award Agreements.
S&T also entered into Confidentiality, Trade Secrets, Non-Solicitation and Severance Agreement with each of Mr. Antolik and Mr. Kochvar (the “Severance Agreements”). Under the Severance Agreements, if Mr. Antolik’s or Mr. Kochvar’s employment is terminated without Cause (as defined in the Severance Agreements) he will be entitled to one year of pay at his last base salary paid in accordance with S&T’s regular payroll practices over twelve (12) months commencing on the first regular payroll date following termination of employment and will also be eligible to receive paid COBRA benefits for twelve (12) months (collectively referred to as “Severance”).
