Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

 

On July 2, 2019, AAR CORP. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that Robert J. Regan, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, will be retiring from the Company on December 31, 2019. The Company and Mr. Regan subsequently entered into a Retirement Agreement and Supplemental Release (the “Retirement Agreement”) in connection with Mr. Regan’s retirement from the Company.

 

Mr. Regan is eligible to receive severance benefits as set forth in the Amended and Restated Severance and Change in Control Agreement dated October 11, 2017 (the “Severance Agreement”). These benefits include salary continuation for twelve months, subject to earlier termination under certain circumstances as set forth in the Severance Agreement. Mr. Regan is also eligible for a pro-rated fiscal 2020 bonus under the Company’s Fiscal 2020 Short-Term Incentive Plan.

 

The Retirement Agreement provides for continued coverage of group medical, dental and vision benefits for Mr. Regan, his spouse and covered dependents at the same cost it charges its active employees. This coverage terminates the earlier of Mr. Regan becoming (a) eligible for Medicare or other similar government-sponsored coverage or (b) eligible for coverage through another employer.

 

The Retirement Agreement also confirms that Mr. Regan will be retirement eligible or otherwise vested for purposes of the Company’s stock plans and the Supplemental Key Employee Retirement Plan.

 

The foregoing description of the Retirement Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Retirement Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
