ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On November 1, 2004, Vyyo Inc. (the “Company”) and William Keating entered into an at-will employment agreement (the “Agreement”). Under the terms of the Agreement, effective November 1, 2004, Mr. Keating became Chief Executive Officer of Xtend Networks, a subsidiary of the Company.

 

Under the Agreement, Mr. Keating will be paid a base salary of $300,000 per year and be eligible for an annual bonus of $200,000 based on performance milestones. Mr. Keating was awarded a grant of stock options to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, he will be awarded another grant in 2005 to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Both of the stock option grants vest 25% at Mr. Keating’s one-year employment anniversary and monthly thereafter over three additional years, so long as he continues as an employee of or consultant to the Company or its subsidiaries.

 

In the event there is a change of control of the Company and within one year thereafter Mr. Keating quits for good reason or is terminated without cause, 50% of his outstanding unvested options at that time will vest immediately and he will be paid a severance of six months’ base salary.

 

If Mr. Keating’s employment is terminated for any reason other than cause (or on account of a change of control), he will be paid a severance equal to (i) three months’ base salary, if such termination occurs within the first 12 months of employment; and (ii) an additional one month base salary for each additional 12 month period (after the completion of the first 12 months) of employment. In addition, if such termination for any reason other than cause (or change in control) occurs prior to the expiration of six months from Mr. Keating’s date of hire, 10% percent of his outstanding stock options will immediately vest. If such termination for any reason other than cause (or change in control) occurs after six months but prior to the expiration of 12 months from Mr. Keating’s date of hire, 20% of his outstanding stock options will immediately vest.
