Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Caridi, age 53, served as Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer at John Wiley & Sons. While at John Wiley & Sons, Mr. Caridi was responsible for all aspects of accounting, from operational processes to Securities and Exchange Commission reporting, and led a global team of over 175 people. He led a successful transformation effort in this role, establishing a shared services group, globalizing processes and integrating acquisitions, while supporting a business in an evolving industry that was focused on driving innovation to continuously grow and meet market needs. Prior to his position at John Wiley & Sons, Mr. Caridi began his career at Price Waterhouse before taking on a series of progressively responsible finance roles for Reader’s Digest, Golden Books Family Entertainment, Thomson Healthcare and Thomson Reuters. Mr. Caridi is a certified public accountant and received a B.S. in Accounting from Penn State University and an M.B.A. from New York University’s Stern School of Business.

 

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Caridi and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as an officer. There are no family relationships between Mr. Caridi and any director or officer of the Company or any other related-party transaction of the Company involving Mr. Caridi.

 

In connection with his commencement of employment with the Company, Mr. Caridi and the Company entered into a letter agreement that provides for (i) an annual base salary of $300,000, (ii) a signing bonus in the amount of $179,000, (iii) eligibility to receive an annual bonus targeted at 40% of his annual base salary, pro-rated for 2020 to reflect his partial year of service, and (iv) incentive equity awards under the Company’s 2015 Incentive Award Plan with an aggregate grant date fair value of approximately $380,000, which are expected to be issued in the form of stock options (representing 1/3 of the grant date fair value of the equity awards) and restricted stock units (representing 2/3 of the grant date fair value of the equity awards). The options to be issued to Mr. Caridi will an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, and are expected to vest as to 25% of the underlying shares on the first anniversary of the grant date, and as to the remaining 75% of the underlying shares in 36 equal monthly installments thereafter, subject to Mr. Caridi’s continued service on the applicable vesting date.
