On June 7, 2022, Envestnet, Inc. (“Envestnet”) announced organizational changes to drive innovation and continued growth. In connection with these organizational changes, Envestnet also announced that Stuart DePina, President of Envestnet, has resigned from his position as President of Envestnet effective June 30, 2022.
Mr. DePina will continue to serve as a consultant for a period of 24 months effective June 30, 2022, pursuant to the terms of a consulting agreement, dated June 6, 2022 (the “Consultant Agreement”). Pursuant to the Consultant Agreement, Mr. DePina will consult with Envestnet regarding, among other things, Envestnet’s RIA strategy and will be available to periodically consult with Envestnet’s chief executive officer. Mr. DePina will receive $20,000 per month during the term of his consulting arrangement and will be entitled to reimbursement of his reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.
Pursuant to the terms of a severance agreement and general release entered into on June 6, 2022 between Envestnet Financial Technologies, Inc. and Mr. DePina (the “Separation Agreement”), Mr. DePina will be entitled to certain severance benefits following his termination in exchange for signing and not revoking a release of claims against Envestnet and its affiliates and in exchange for compliance with certain provisions protecting Envestnet’s interests, such as non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-disparagement obligations. Such severance benefits include cash payments totaling $2,200,032, payable in equal installments over a period of 24 months, and a single lump-sum payment equal to $329,538. Additionally, Mr. DePina shall have the right to continue to exercise certain stock options and the right to continue to vest in equity awards granted prior to 2022, in each case, as if he remained employed by Envestnet through the June 30, 2024. With respect to equity awards granted in 2022, Mr. DePina will be treated as terminating due to “retirement” effective as of June 30, 2024. Mr. DePina’s awards are subject to forfeiture and/or clawback in the event Mr. DePina violates the terms of certain covenants, such as his non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-disparagement obligations, and such awards remain subject to the terms of the Envestnet Clawback Policy.
