Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On March 25, 2024, Genuine Parts Company (the “Company”) announced that James R. Neill, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, has elected to participate in the
Company’s voluntary retirement program implemented in connection with the Company’s previously announced global restructuring. Mr. Neill’s retirement will be effectiveas of April 30, 2024. Following Mr. Neill’s retirement, Mr. Neill will serve as a consultant to the Company through September 30, 2024 (the “Consulting Period”) as described below.
In connection with Mr. Neill’s retirement, the Company will enter into a Separation Agreement and General Release with Mr. Neill (the “Separation Agreement”).
Subject to Mr. Neill’s non-revocation of, and continued compliance with, the Separation Agreement, Mr. Neill will be entitled to a cash separation payment equal to the sum of (i) sixty weeks of Mr. Neill’s current base salary, (ii) the cash value of all outstanding unvested long-term incentive awards held by Mr. Neill that would otherwise have been forfeited as a result of his early retirement, based on a Company stock price of $135 per share and (iii) the cash value of certain healthcare benefits and FICA tax obligations as further described in the Separation Agreement. In addition, Mr. Neill will be entitled to the payment of a prorated portion of his annual cash incentive award for the Company’s 2024 fiscal year, if applicable.
In addition, the
Company will enter into a Consulting Agreement with Mr. Neill (the “Consulting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Neill will continue to provide advisory services to the Company in order to assist with an orderly transition. As consideration for his services, Mr. Neill will be entitled to an extension through the Consulting Period of his current base salary and a prorated portion of his annual cash incentive award for the Company’s 2024 fiscal year, if applicable.
The retirement benefits to be received by Mr. Neill described above are commensurate with the retirement benefits to be received by other similarly-situated employees of the
Company (i.e., based on the employee’s employment level and years of service to the Company) who have elected to participate in the Company’s voluntary retirement program.
The foregoing summaries of the terms of the Separation Agreement and Consulting Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Separation Agreement and the Consulting Agreement, copies of which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2024.
