(c) On June 12, 2013, the Board of Directors of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. (the “Company”) promoted to Chief Financial Officer its Acting Chief Financial Officer, Robert Censullo. Mr. Censullo entered into a severance agreement with the Company on June 14, 2013. The agreement with Mr. Censullo provides that if his employment is terminated by the Company “without cause” or if he terminates his employment for “good reason,” in each case within eighteen (18) months of a Change in Control (as such term is currently defined in the Company’s 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan), then he will be entitled to receive (i) a lump-sum cash payment equal to 50% of his annual base salary then in effect, plus the amount, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors, he earned as of the date of his termination under the annual bonus component of the Company’s officer bonus incentive plan in effect at that time, and (ii) the continuation of all benefits, to the extent permissible under the applicable benefits programs, in which he participates for a period of six months following his termination. If Mr. Censullo obtains subsequent employment during such six month period and if he receives benefits through such subsequent employment, the Company may terminate his continuing benefits. The terms of this agreement are valid through June 15, 2023.
