(e) Agreement with Former Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Principal Financial Officer
On December 20, 2015, Erie Indemnity Company (the "Registrant") entered into an Agreement with Marcia A. Dall, its former Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Principal Financial Officer, who resigned effective October 9, 2015 (the "Agreement").
The Agreement provides that, in consideration of the execution and performance of the Agreement by Ms. Dall, she will be entitled to receive 91.67% of any award to be earned upon satisfaction of the performance goals for the 2013-2015 performance period under the Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) of the Registrant. (The 91.67% reflects the proration for 33/36 of the LTIP performance period.) In accordance with the terms of the LTIP, the payment of such award: (i) is subject to the exercise of discretion by the Registrant’s Executive Compensation and Development Committee to reduce or eliminate awards that would otherwise have been earned by executive vice presidents as a class under the LTIP for the 2013-2015 performance period; and (ii) will be made at the time awards for the performance period are paid to other LTIP participants. In addition, she will be eligible for payment for any unused vacation time; her accrued benefits under the Erie Insurance Group Retirement Plan for Employees, Employee Savings Plan, Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan and Deferred Compensation Plan; and certain other employee benefits as provided for in accordance with each plan’s documents and the Registrant’s policies.
The Agreement further provides for a release by Ms. Dall of any claims she might have against the Registrant and its officers, directors and related persons; customary confidentiality provisions; as well as an agreement by Ms. Dall to cooperate with the Registrant (if her assistance is needed during the two-year period following her resignation) in connection with matters that arose while she was employed by the Registrant.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report.
