Except as discussed below, you agree to devote your full business time, best efforts, skill, knowledge, attention and energies to the advancement of the Company’s business and interests and to the performance of your duties and responsibilities as an employee of the Company.

3.Following the end of each calendar year, you may be eligible for a retention and performance bonus of up to $135,000.00, less applicable taxes and withholdings.  Any such annual bonus will be based on the Company’s performance and your performance (as measured against management objectives to be established by the Board each year) during the applicable year, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion.  In any event, you must be an active employee of the Company on the date any annual bonus is distributed in order to be eligible for and to earn any bonus award, as it also serves as an incentive to remain employed by the Company.  Any bonus would be pro-rated for the initial year in which you are employed by the Company in this role.

Exhibit 10.3

 

SEPARATION AGREEMENT

This Separation Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and between Dr. Bruce M. McWilliams (“Executive”) and Intermolecular, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is made effective as of the eighth (8th) day following the date Executive signs this Agreement (the “Effective Date”) with reference to the following facts:

A.Executive’s employment with the Company and status as an officer and employee of the Company and each of its affiliates will end effective upon the Termination Date (as defined below).

B.Executive and the Company want to end their relationship amicably and also to establish the obligations of the parties including, without limitation, all amounts due and owing to Executive.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.Termination Date.  Executive acknowledges and agrees that his status as an officer and employee of the Company will end effective as of April 3, 2017 (the “Termination Date”).  Executive hereby agrees to execute such further document(s) as shall be determined by the Company as necessary or desirable to give effect to the termination of Executive’s status as an officer of the Company and each of its subsidiaries; provided that such documents shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement.

2.Board of Directors.  Executive shall continue to serve as a member of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) following the Termination Date and shall also serve as the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board effective as of the Termination Date.  From and after the Termination Date, in consideration for Executive continuing to serve as a member of the Board, Executive’s outstanding equity awards shall continue to vest and be outstanding in accordance with their original terms and conditions based on Executive’s continued service to the Company.  Upon the date Executive ceases to serve as a member of the Board, Executive’s outstanding equity awards shall crease vesting and any unvested shares as of such date shall automatically terminate.  Executive acknowledges that each unexercised “incentive stock option” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that remains unexercised following the three (3)-month anniversary of the Termination Date shall no longer qualify for favorable tax treatment as an incentive stock option.

3.Final Paycheck; Payment of Accrued Wages and Expenses.  

(a)Final Paycheck.  As soon as administratively practicable on or after the Termination Date, the Company will pay Executive all accrued but unpaid base salary and all accrued and unused vacation earned through the Termination Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings.  Executive is entitled to these payments regardless of whether Executive executes this Agreement.

(b)Business Expenses.  The Company shall reimburse Executive for all outstanding expenses incurred prior to the Termination Date which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and 

1

 

US-DOCS\83225920.2

other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documenting such expenses.  Executive is entitled to these reimbursement regardless of whether Executive executes this Agreement.

(c)Change in Control.  In the event a Change in Control (as defined in that certain employment agreement by and between you and the Company effective as of October 12, 2014 (the “Employment Agreement”)) occurs within one (1) month following the Termination Date, then Executive shall be eligible for the separation payments and benefits in Section 4(f) of the Employment Agreement, which shall be reduced by any separation payments and benefits already paid in Section 4 below.

(d)Subsequent Employment.  While Executive serves as a member of the Board, Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees to notify the Company in writing if he accepts employment with any Competitor to the Company.  “Competitor” to the Company shall mean any business engaged in any business activity which is directly or indirectly in competition with the business of the Company or which is directly or indirectly detrimental to the business or business plans of the Company or its affiliates in any market where the Company has primary or secondary service areas.

4.Separation Payments and Benefits.  Without admission of any liability, fact or claim, the Company hereby agrees, subject to the execution of this Agreement and Executive’s performance of his continuing obligations pursuant to this Agreement and that certain Employee Confidentiality and Inventions Assignment Agreement entered into between Executive and the Company on or about March 27, 2017 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), to provide Executive the severance benefits set forth below, in full satisfaction of any amounts owed under the Employment Agreement.  Specifically, the Company and Executive agree as follows: 

(a)Severance.  Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to three (3) months of base salary (the aggregate amount, $150,000), payable in a cash lump sum on the payroll date that immediately follows the Effective Date.

(b)Healthcare Continuation Coverage.  If Executive elects to receive continued healthcare coverage pursuant to the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), the Company shall directly pay, or reimburse Executive for, the premiums for Executive and Executive’s covered dependents during the period commencing on the Termination Date and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) the twelve (12)-month anniversary of the Termination Date (whereby six (6) months were originally provided under the Employment Agreement and an additional six (6) months was approved by the Board in connection with this Agreement) and (ii) the date Executive becomes eligible for comparable coverage under another employer’s plans, provided that Executive submits documentation to the Company substantiating his payments for COBRA coverage.  Any such reimbursement payments, if applicable, shall be made to Executive no later than twenty (20) days after Executive’s submission of documentation to the Company substantiating his payments for COBRA coverage.  After the Company ceases to pay premiums pursuant to the preceding sentence, Executive may, if eligible, elect to continue healthcare coverage at Executive’s expense in accordance with the provisions of COBRA.

(c)Taxes.  Executive understands and agrees that all payments under this Agreement will be subject to appropriate tax withholding and other deductions.  To the 

2

 

US-DOCS\83225920.2

extent any taxes may be payable by Executive for the benefits provided to him by this Agreement beyond those withheld by the Company, Executive agrees to pay them himself and to indemnify and hold the Company and the other entities released herein harmless for any tax claims or penalties, and associated attorneys’ fees and costs, resulting from any failure by him to make required payments. 

(d)Sole Separation Benefit.  Executive agrees that the payments provided by this Section 3 are not required under the Company’s normal policies and procedures and are provided as a severance solely in connection with this Agreement.  Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments referenced in this Section 3 constitute adequate and valuable consideration, in and of themselves, for the promises contained in this Agreement.  Executive acknowledges that the payment and arrangements herein shall constitute full and complete satisfaction of any and all amounts properly due and owing to him as a result of his employment with the Company and the termination thereof, including, without limitation, under the Employment Agreement.

5.Full Payment.  Executive acknowledges that the payment and arrangements herein shall constitute full and complete satisfaction of any and all amounts properly due and owing to Executive as a result of his employment with the Company and the termination thereof.  Executive further acknowledges that, other than the Confidentiality Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement by and between the Company and Executive (the “Indemnification Agreement”), this Agreement shall supersede each agreement entered into between Executive and the Company regarding Executive’s employment, including, without limitation, the Employment Agreement and any severance and/or change in control agreement, and each such agreement (other than the agreements evidencing Executive’s Equity Awards) shall be deemed terminated and of no further effect as of the Termination Date.

6.Executive’s Release of the Company.  Executive understands that by agreeing to the release provided by this Section 5, Executive is agreeing not to sue, or otherwise file any claim against, the Company or any of its employees or other agents for any reason whatsoever based on anything that has occurred as of the date Executive signs this Agreement.

(a)On behalf of Executive and Executive’s heirs, assigns, executors, administrators, trusts, spouse and estate, Executive hereby releases and forever discharges the “Releasees” hereunder, consisting of the Company, and each of its owners, affiliates, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, assigns, agents, directors, officers, partners, employees, and insurers, and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert with them, or any of them, of and from any and all manner of action or actions, cause or causes of action, in law or in equity, suits, debts, liens, contracts, agreements, promises, liability, claims, demands, damages, loss, cost or expense, of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, fixed or contingent (hereinafter called “Claims”), which Executive now has or may hereafter have against the Releasees, or any of them, by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever from the beginning of time to the date hereof, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Claims arising out of, based upon, or relating to Executive’s hire, employment, service as a director, remuneration or resignation by the Releasees, or any of them, Claims arising under federal, state, or local laws relating to employment, Claims of any kind that may be brought in any court or administrative agency, including any Claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §  2000, et seq.; Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq.; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 701 et seq.; Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 621, et seq.; Civil Rights Act of 1866, and Civil

BEING AWARE OF SAID CODE SECTION, EXECUTIVE HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE THEREUNDER, AS WELL AS UNDER ANY OTHER STATUTES OR COMMON LAW PRINCIPLES OF SIMILAR EFFECT.

7.Non-Disparagement, Transition and Transfer of Company Property.  Executive further agrees that:

(a)Non-Disparagement.  Executive agrees not to disparage the Company, any of its products or practices, or any of its directors, officers, agents, representatives, partners, members, equity holders or affiliates, either orally or in writing, at any time, provided, that Executive may confer in confidence with Executive’s legal representatives and make truthful statements as required by law.  The Company agrees that it shall not, and it shall instruct its officers and members of its Board to not disparage, Executive, either publicly or privately.  For the purposes of this Agreement, “disparage” means to state a negative opinion of another person that could reasonably be expected to harm the personal, business or professional reputation of that person.  Notwithstanding the 

5

 

US-DOCS\83225920.2

foregoing, nothing in this Section 6(a) shall prevent Executive or the Company from making any truthful statement to the extent (i) necessary to rebut any untrue public statements made about him or it; (ii) necessary with respect to any litigation, arbitration or mediation involving this Agreement and the enforcement thereof; or (iii) required by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with jurisdiction over such person.  In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Executive or the Company from engaging in any lawfully protected activity or conduct, including reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any governmental agency or regulatory body (including but not limited to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress, any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation), filing a charge with or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by any governmental agency or regulatory body, or making other disclosures that are protected under any law or regulation.  Executive or the Company do not need the prior authorization of the other party to engage in any such lawfully protected activity, nor is Executive or the Company required to notify the other party that he or it has done so.

(b)Transition.  Each of the Company and Executive shall use their respective reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other in good faith to facilitate a smooth transition of Executive’s duties to other executive(s) of the Company.

(c)Transfer of Company Property.  On or before the Termination Date, Executive shall turn over to the Company all files, memoranda, records, and other documents, and any other physical or personal property which are the property of the Company and which he had in his possession, custody or control at the time he signed this Agreement; provided, however, that Executive shall retain possession of his cellular phone and laptop computer for use during his continued service on the Board.

8.Executive Representations.  Executive warrants and represents that (a) he has not filed or authorized the filing of any complaints, charges or lawsuits against the Company or any affiliate of the Company with any governmental agency or court, and that if, unbeknownst to Executive, such a complaint, charge or lawsuit has been filed on his behalf, he will immediately cause it to be withdrawn and dismissed, (b) he has reported all hours worked as of the date of this Agreement and has been paid all compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions, and/or benefits to which he may be entitled and no other compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions and/or benefits are due to him, except as provided in this Agreement, (c) he has no known workplace injuries or occupational diseases and has been provided and/or has not been denied any leave requested under the Family and Medical Leave Act or any similar state law, (d) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive does not and will not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any agreement, contract or instrument to which Executive is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which Executive is subject, and (e) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Executive, this Agreement will be a valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms.  

9.No Assignment by Executive.  Executive warrants and represents that no portion of any of the matters released herein, and no portion of any recovery or settlement to which Executive might be entitled, has been assigned or transferred to any other person, firm or corporation not a party to this Agreement, in any manner, including by way of subrogation or operation of law or otherwise.  If any claim, action, demand or suit should be made or instituted against the Company or any other Releasee because of any actual assignment, subrogation or 

6

 

US-DOCS\83225920.2

transfer by Executive, Executive agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and all other Releasees against such claim, action, suit or demand, including necessary expenses of investigation, attorneys’ fees and costs.  In the event of Executive’s death, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Executive and Executive’s executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees.  None of Executive’s rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred by Executive, other than Executive’s rights to payments hereunder, which may be transferred only upon Executive’s death by will or operation of law.  

10.Non-Solicitation.  Without limiting the Confidentiality Agreement, Executive hereby agrees that Executive shall not, at any time within the one (1) year period immediately following the Termination Date, directly or indirectly, either for himself or on behalf of any other person, recruit or otherwise solicit or induce any employee or consultant of the Company to terminate its employment or arrangement with the Company, or otherwise change its relationship with the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent Executive from directly or indirectly hiring any individual who submits a resume or otherwise applies for a position in response to a publicly posted job announcement or otherwise applies for employment with any person with whom Executive may be associated absent any violation of Executive’s obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence.

11.Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the laws of the State of California or, where applicable, United States federal law, in each case, without regard to any conflicts of laws provisions or those of any state other than California.

12.Miscellaneous.  This Agreement, collectively with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement and the agreements evidencing Executive’s equity awards comprise the entire agreement between the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof and supersedes, in their entirety, any other agreements between Executive and the Company with regard to the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, the Employment Agreement.  Executive acknowledges that there are no other agreements, written, oral or implied, and that he may not rely on any prior negotiations, discussions, representations or agreements.  This Agreement may be modified only in writing, and such writing must be signed by both parties and recited that it is intended to modify this Agreement.  This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement.  

13.Company Assignment and Successors.  The Company shall assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any successor to all or substantially all of the business or the assets of the Company (by merger or otherwise).  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors, assigns, personnel and legal representatives.

14.Maintaining Confidential Information.  Executive reaffirms his obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement.  Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments provided in Section 3 above shall be subject to Executive’s continued compliance with Executive’s obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement.  

15.Executive’s Cooperation.  After the Termination Date, Executive shall cooperate with the Company and its affiliates, upon the Company’s reasonable request, with respect to any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding involving matters within the scope of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company or its affiliates during his employment with the Company (including, without limitation, Executive being available 

7

 

US-DOCS\83225920.2

to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s reasonable request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, and turning over to the Company all relevant Company documents which are or may have come into Executive’s possession during his employment); provided, however, that any such request by the Company shall not be unduly burdensome or interfere with Executive’s personal schedule or ability to engage in gainful employment, and Company shall compensate Executive for his time at his standard consulting rate of $300 per hour as well as reimburse him for any expenses reasonably incurred in cooperating with the Company, provided that such expenses shall be subject to the Company’s prior approval.   

16.Section 409A of the Code.  This Agreement is intended, to the greatest extent permitted under law, to comply with the short-term deferral exemption and the separation pay exemption provided in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and other interpretative guidance issued thereunder (“Section 409A”) such that no benefits or payments under this Agreement are subject to Section 409A.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the timing of any payments under this Agreement shall be made consistent with such exemption.  Executive’s right to receive a series of installment payments under this Agreement, if any, shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments.  To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Termination Date.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Company determines that any amounts payable hereunder may be subject to Section 409A, the Company may, to the extent permitted under Section 409A cooperate in good faith to adopt such amendments to this Agreement or adopt other appropriate policies and procedures, including amendments and policies with retroactive effect, that the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A; provided, however, that this paragraph shall not create an obligation on the part of the Company to adopt any such amendment, policy or procedure or take any such other action, nor shall the Company have any liability for failing to do so.  To the extent that any reimbursements payable pursuant to this Agreement are subject to the provisions of Section 409A, such reimbursements shall be paid to Executive no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred, the amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any subsequent year, and Executive’s right to reimbursement under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
