(e) On October 28, 2015, Chicopee Savings Bank (the “Bank”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an employment agreement (the “Agreement”) with Guida R. Sajdak, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Bank (“Executive”). The Agreement supersedes the change in control agreement Executive entered into with the Bank on June 18, 2010.
The Agreement provides for a three-year term and the term may be extended on an annual basis. The Agreement provides that the Bank will pay Executive an annual salary of $186,000. In addition, the Agreement provides for, among other things, participation in the Bank’s employee benefit plans.
If Executive’s employment is terminated for “cause,” as defined in the Agreement, Executive will have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after termination for cause. In the event Executive voluntarily terminates employment, Executive will receive her compensation and vested rights and benefit to the date of her termination.
In the event the Bank terminates Executive’s employment without cause or Executive terminates her employment for “good reason,” as defined in the Agreement, Executive will be entitled to receive a cash severance amount equal to Executive’s base salary for the remaining term of the Agreement. In addition, Executive will be entitled to a cash lump sum payment equal to the benefits she would have received during the remaining term of the Agreement under any retirement programs in which she participated prior to her termination and will continue to participate in any benefit plans of the Bank that provide health or life insurance coverage during such period. If, within a period ending two years after a change in control, the Bank terminates Executive’s employment without cause or Executive voluntarily terminates her employment with good reason, Executive will be entitled to a lump sum cash payment equal to three times her “total compensation,” as defined in the Agreement. In such event, Executive will also continue to participate in any benefit plans of the Bank that provide health or life insurance coverage for a period of 36 months following her termination of employment.
The Agreement requires Executive to adhere to a covenant not to compete with the Bank for one-year after Executive’s termination of employment.
A copy of the Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1. The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Agreement that is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
