On July 14, 2014, with retroactive effect to July 1, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), SP Plus Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Executive Employment Agreement with Hector Chevalier (the “Employment Agreement”) to serve as an Executive Vice President.

The Employment Agreement has a one-year term from the Effective Date, and automatically renews for one-year periods unless either party provides not less than 180 days notice of an intention not to renew the Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement provides Mr. Chevalier with the following compensation and benefits:

 

·                  Annual base salary of no less than $373,250, subject to review annually in accordance with the Company’s review policies and practices then in effect;

·                  Participation in all compensation and employee benefit plans or programs, and all benefits or perquisites, for which any member of the Company’s senior management is eligible under any existing or future Company plan or program.

 

The Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Chevalier is entitled to certain salary and benefits continuation upon termination of employment depending upon the reason for termination. The Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Chevalier may not disclose or use any trade secrets or confidential information of the Company during or after the term of the Employment Agreement. During his employment with the Company and for a period of 24 months following his termination of employment of any reason, Mr. Chevalier is precluded from engaging or assisting in any business that is in competition with the Company and from soliciting any Company client, customer, business referral source, officer, employee or representative.
