9

CUSIP No. 749360400

As of the close of business on January 17, 2020, IRS 19 beneficially owned 2,692,065 Common Shares, constituting approximately 20.8% of the Common Shares outstanding. By virtue of their relationships, IRS 19, M2O, the Trust and Mr. O’Connell may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Shares owned by IRS 19.

Neither Harvest nor any person listed on Schedule A hereto owns any Common Shares.

 

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owners of any securities of the Issuer that he or it does not directly own. Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein that he or it does not directly own.

(c)       The transactions in the Common Shares by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days are set forth on Schedule B and are incorporate herein by reference.

Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

On June 1, 2018, Mr. Vizi was appointed Executive Chairman and President of the Issuer. In connection with his appointment, Mr. Vizi entered into an executive severance agreement (the “Executive Severance Agreement”), dated June 1, 2018, with the Issuer, which sets forth the terms and conditions of certain payments to be made by the Issuer to Mr. Vizi in the event, while employed by the Issuer, Mr. Vizi experiences (a) a termination of employment unrelated to a “Change in Control” (as defined therein) or (b) there occurs a Change in Control and Mr. Vizi’s employment is terminated for a reason related to the Change in Control.

10

CUSIP No. 749360400

Under the terms of the Executive Severance Agreement, if either (a) Mr. Vizi is involuntarily terminated by the Issuer for any reason other than “Cause” (as defined therein), “Disability” (as defined therein) or death, or (b) Mr. Vizi resigns for “Good Reason” (as defined therein), and, in each case, the termination is not a “Termination Related to a Change in Control” (as defined below), Mr. Vizi will receive the following severance payments: (i) an amount equal to 1.5 times the sum of (a) Mr. Vizi’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to the termination date (before taking into account any reduction that constitutes Good Reason) (“Annual Base Salary”) and (b) the highest annual bonus paid to Mr. Vizi in any of the three fiscal years immediately preceding his termination date (“Bonus”), to be paid in installments over the twelve month period following Mr. Vizi’s termination date; and (ii) for a period of eighteen months following Mr. Vizi’s termination date, a monthly payment equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Mr. Vizi is required to pay to continue medical, vision, and dental coverage, for himself and, where applicable, his spouse and eligible dependents.

Notwithstanding the above, if Mr. Vizi has a termination as described above and can reasonably demonstrate that such termination would constitute a Termination Related to a Change in Control, and a Change in Control occurs within 120 days following Mr. Vizi’s termination date, Mr. Vizi will be entitled to receive the payments set forth below for a Termination Related to a Change in Control, less any amounts already paid to Mr. Vizi, upon consummation of the Change in Control.

Under the terms of the Executive Severance Agreement, if a Change in Control occurs and Mr. Vizi experiences a Termination Related to a Change in Control on account of (i) an involuntary termination by the Issuer for any reason other than Cause, death, or Disability, (ii) an involuntary termination by the Issuer within twelve months following a Change in Control on account of Disability or death, or (iii) a resignation by the Executive with Good Reason, then Mr. Vizi will receive the following severance payments: (1) a lump sum payment equal to two times the sum of Mr. Vizi’s (a) Annual Base Salary and (b) Bonus; and (2) a lump sum payment equal to twenty-four multiplied by the monthly COBRA premium cost, as in effect immediately prior to Mr. Vizi’s termination date, for Mr. Vizi to continue medical, dental and vision coverage, as applicable, in such Issuer plans for himself and, if applicable, his spouse and eligible dependents. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Issuer shall establish an irrevocable rabbi trust and contribute to the rabbi trust the applicable amounts due under the Executive Severance Agreements.

The foregoing description of the Executive Severance Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Executive Severance Agreement, which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 7, 2018.

On January 16, 2020, Mr. Vizi was granted 150,000 restricted stock units by the Issuer as employment compensation, which are subject to vesting in three equal instalments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date.
