Exhibit 10.2

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made effective the 4th day of August, 2022 (“Effective Date”) by and between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”) and John David Parker (“Employee”) with respect to the following:

 

  A.

The Parties desire to enter into an at-will Employment Agreement whereby the Employee will serve in the capacity of Chief Operating Officer – Eastern Division, based in the Company’s Manhattan, NY office.

 

  B.

The Parties agree that Employee’s employment shall be governed by the terms set forth herein, including the arbitration provision, the Employee Manual, and the Company’s policies and procedures.

THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

 

  1.

Term of At-Will Employment. This Agreement shall be in effect commencing on August 4, 2022. The Company and Employee hereby agree that Employee’s employment with the Company is at-will. Either party may terminate this Agreement with or without cause. Such termination shall not prejudice any remedy which either party may have against the other at law, in equity, or under this Agreement.

 

  2.

Designation and Duties. Beginning on May 4, 2021, Employee was appointed Chief Operating Officer – Eastern Division. Subject to the control and direction of the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors (or one of its Committees), Employee shall serve as an officer of the Company, and shall be responsible for oversight of the Company’s investment sales activities in the eastern United States, and other responsibilities. From time-to-time, these duties may be modified by the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors in their reasonable discretion. Employee is not guaranteed, has not been promised, and has no expectation of any promotion or any other position with the Company other than the one stated in this Agreement. Employee shall serve the Company diligently and according to Employee’s best abilities in all respects, and generally do all things for the best interest of the Company as are usually done by persons occupying similar positions in similar businesses.

 

  3.

Manner of Performance. Employee shall at all times faithfully, industriously, and to the best of Employee’s ability, experience, and talent, perform all duties that may be required of and from Employee, pursuant to the express and implicit terms hereof, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. Such duties shall be rendered at the above-mentioned premises and at such other place or places as the Company shall require or as the interests, needs, business, and opportunities of the Company shall require or make advisable. Employee acknowledges that Employee has received and has read a copy of the Company’s Employee Policy Manual and Code of Ethics and agrees to abide by all terms and conditions, including all future amendments or modifications thereto. The Company reserves the right to amend and revise its policies at any time and from time to time. The Company will notify Employee of all such material changes. Employee agrees to read, comply with, and be bound by all such amendments, revisions and/or modifications.


  4.

Compensation and Fringe Benefits. The compensation and fringe benefits to be received by Employee in consideration of the services to be rendered by Employee are set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto. The provisions of Exhibit “A” are incorporated into this Agreement by reference as if fully set forth herein. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the employee benefit plans and programs it offers to employees.

 

  5.

Effect of Termination on Compensation. Employee shall be entitled to the base salary earned by Employee prior to the date of termination, computed pro rata up to the date of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to any further salary or other compensation after the date of termination. Except as expressly modified in Exhibit A, on termination of this Agreement Employee shall not be deemed to have earned any incentive compensation not already declared and paid by the Company because such compensation is not for services rendered, and employment on the date of payment is an express requirement to be deemed to have earned any such compensation. Unless otherwise agreed-to in writing, Employee shall be obligated to return to the Company within ten (10) days after the termination of Employee’s employment any draws or other advance payments (of incentive compensation or otherwise) made to him during the annual period in which such termination occurs. Unless otherwise agreed-to in writing, interest shall accrue on the sum of any such advances at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum after said ten-day period.

 

  6.

Business Expenses. The Company will promptly reimburse Employee for reasonable business expenses incurred by Employee in promoting the business of the Company, including expenditures for entertainment, gifts and travel, provided that: (i) Each such expenditure is of a nature qualifying it as a proper deduction on the Federal and State income tax returns of the Company; and (ii) Employee furnishes to the Company, in accordance with the Company’s established policy, adequate records and other documentary evidence required by Federal and State statutes and regulations issued by the appropriate taxing authorities for the substantiation of such expenditures as income tax deductions.

 

  7.

Confidentiality and Restrictive Covenants.

 

  (i)

Employee shall not, at any time during or after the Term, reproduce or use for Employee’s own purposes or disclose to anyone else, for any reason or purpose, any Confidential Information, other than during the performance of services in Employee’s capacity as an employee of the Company.

  (iv)

Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly, engage in any conduct, or make any statement disparaging or criticizing in any way, the Company or any of its affiliates, or any personnel of the Company or any of its affiliates, or engage in any other conduct or make any other statement that could be reasonably expected to impair the goodwill or reputation of the Company or any of its affiliates, in each case, except that is required by law, and then only after consultation with the Company to the extent possible.

 

  (v)

Acknowledgements.

 

  (a)

Employee acknowledges that the Company’s Confidential Information constitutes valuable, special and unique commercial and proprietary assets of the Company, is not public and is of a highly sensitive nature. Employee further acknowledges that disclosure of the Company’s Confidential Information would severely and adversely impact the Company’s business and provide the recipient with a substantial and unfair competitive advantage.

 

  (b)

Employee recognizes that the restrictions and limitations set forth in Paragraph 7 of this Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”), are independent and separate obligations of one another. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are legitimate, fair and reasonable, including with respect to time and geographic scope necessary to protect legitimate business interests of the Company, including goodwill, client relationships, and Confidential and proprietary information, and because of Employee’s special, extraordinary, and unique services. The Restrictive Covenants are a material condition of employment with the Company. The Company’s obligations set forth herein, including compensation and material and beneficial change in Employee’s role as evidenced in this Agreement, constitutes fair and reasonable consideration.

 

5


  (c)

Notwithstanding any term to the contrary, if Employee breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company will be entitled to all available forms of equitable relief, including, without limitation, injunctive relief and specific performance, from any court having jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages alone will not provide an adequate remedy to the Company. Employee agrees and consents that, in addition to any other remedies available to it, the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief without posting a bond. Employee agrees that the existence of this right to seek injunctive and other equitable relief shall not limit any other rights or remedies that the Company may have in law or in equity including, without limitation, the right to monetary, compensatory and punitive damages.

 

  (d)

Should Employee violate any obligation imposed in this Agreement, Employee acknowledges and agree that the obligation will be extended by the length of time during which Employee is in breach of such obligation. Each of the Restrictive Covenants shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Employee against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any such covenants.

 

  (e)

If any Restrictive Covenant is determined not enforceable in the manner set forth herein, the Parties agree that it is the intention of the parties that such provision be modified by the court or arbitrator, as applicable, and should be enforceable to the maximum extent possible under applicable law.

 

  (f)

Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall be defined as: (A) material violation of Company’s policies or the Agreement following notice and thirty (30) days opportunity to cure where such breach is capable of cure; (B) material violation of Company’s policies or this Agreement where such breach is not capable of cure; (C) failure to perform Employee’s duties in a manner equal to or exceeding that which is reasonable and customary for individuals holding the same or similar title for similar companies in the United States; (D) failure to comply with the reasonable requests and directives of Employee’s supervisor; (E) commission of, plea of guilt or no-contest to, or conviction for any felony or crime of moral turpitude; (F) commission of fraud; (G) commission of any conduct for which punitive damages are awarded; or (H) commission of any act which materially and negatively affects the Company’s brand, reputation, standing, or licensure.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT A

This document is Exhibit A of the Employment Agreement (hereinafter called the “Agreement”) between Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”) and John David Parker (“Employee”). The provisions hereof are an integral part of said Agreement and are fully incorporated into the Agreement. The Compensation and Fringe Benefits to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Employment Agreement (and as described below) are as of the Effective Date and will be reassessed annually by the Chief Executive Officer and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

Compensation and Fringe Benefits of Employee.

The compensation and fringe benefits to be paid to Employee for 2022 are as follows:

 

  1.

Compensation and Special Conditions.

 

  i.

Salary. Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company a base monthly salary of Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($33,333.33), payable in semi-monthly installments, pro-rated for less than a full year of service. In the event employment is terminated, the base salary amount will be paid on a pro-rata basis up to the date of termination in accordance with state law, with no salary due or earned after the date of termination.

 

  ii.

Bonus Potential: Employee will be eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash incentive bonus targeted at One Million Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,550,000) per calendar year for 2022 (with eligible bonus for 2022 paid by the target date of February 2023) and continuing annually thereafter. This bonus will be sixty percent (60%) based on Company financial and non-financial performance against goals, and forty percent (40%) based on personal goals that will be set with Employee’s input (%’s subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). It will be determined based on Employee’s performance review with the Chief Executive Officer and paid, if awarded, in February after the Compensation Committee meeting and approval process. If in any given year, the Company does not meet a minimum of fifty percent (50%) of its pre-tax income goal, no bonuses will be paid to Employee for that year, unless special considerations are determined by the Compensation Committee. The actual annual discretionary cash incentive bonus paid to Employee for any given year will be both objective and subjective in nature, will be heavily dependent on both the Company’s financial performance and Employees performance against his pre-established performance goals, and may end up being higher or lower than Employee’s annual discretionary cash incentive bonus target.

 

1


  iii.

Restricted Stock Units: Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, as a senior leader of the Company, as set forth below contingent upon Employee’s continued employment and good standing, Employee will be eligible for long term incentive compensation in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). All RSUs require the approval of the Compensation Committee and shall be governed by the Company’s Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, except as modified and approved by the Compensation Committee.

 

  a.

LTP1 and LTP2 RSU Grant: Subject to approval of the Compensation Committee, and Employee being in good standing, beginning with any discretionary cash bonus paid in 2023, Employee will be eligible in the Company’s discretion to receive an RSU grant potential equivalent of up to fifty percent (50%) of Employee’s actual discretionary cash bonus earned and paid each year. Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on the year’s overall results including the Company’s performance and Employee’s individual performance (“LTP1”) (LTP1 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). Twenty-five percent (25%) will be based on progress toward achieving the Company’s long-term goals and Employee’s contribution toward them (“LTP2”) (LTP2 % subject to change in the reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer). These RSU grants will be part of the annual review process, with amounts determined by the Company, in its discretion, in February based on the prior calendar year. The RSU grants will be subject to a 5-year vesting schedule.

 

  2.

Performance-Based Compensation Clawback. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be entitled, pursuant to any policy it adopts to comply with the clawback rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or our exchange listing standards, to recover from Employee, regardless of fault, that portion of performance-based compensation which was based on financial information required to be reported under securities laws that would not have been paid in the three completed fiscal years preceding the year(s) in which an accounting restatement is required to be filed to correct a material error. Subject to applicable law, the Compensation Committee may seek to recoup such performance-based compensation by requiring Employee to repay such amount to the Company; by set-off; by reducing future compensation; or by such other means or combination of means as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate.

 

  3.

Cellular Phone Allowance. Employee shall be entitled to a monthly cellular phone allowance in the amount of $150.00, reimbursed through regular and timely Expense Report submittal.

 

  4.

Employee will be eligible for the Company’s auto lease program in accordance with the Company’s applicable policies.

 

  5.

Insurance and Retirement. Employee shall be entitled to participate in insurance packages (medical, dental, and life) in accordance with the terms of Company

 

2


  Insurance Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees. Additionally, Employee shall be entitled to participate in a retirement savings plan in accordance with the terms of Company 401(K) Plan(s) available to eligible Company employees.

 

  6.

Paid Time Off (PTO): Marcus & Millichap PTO policy for Employee’s position does not provide for a specific amount of time off, but rather is open-ended and variable, depending on the demands and requirements of the office. The timing and amount of vacation Employee takes requires the express approval of Employee’s supervisor and does not accrue in any way.
