On July 9, 2015, Harte Hanks announced that Douglas C. Shepard would succeed Robert A. Philpott as its (interim) President and Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Philpott resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer and from the Company’s board of directors, effective July 7, 2015. In connection with his resignation, Harte Hanks agreed to provide Mr. Philpott severance benefits as though he had been terminated “without Cause” under the terms of his Employment Agreement with the Company of July 1, 2013. Related to this transition, we expect to incur a post-tax severance charge of approximately $2.0 million to $2.5 million.
