Item 5.02.

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

Abraham Rosler resigned from his positions as Executive Vice President and as a member of the Board of Directors of InfoSonics Corporation (the “Company”) effective as of October 6, 2009 (the “Separation Date”).  Mr. Rosler’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices nor was Mr. Rosler removed for cause.

 

In connection with Mr. Rosler’s resignation, on October 6, 2009, the Company and Mr. Rosler (acting individually and in his capacity as trustee of the Abraham Rosler Family Trust) entered into an Agreement and General Release of Claims (the “Separation Agreement”).  Mr. Rosler may revoke the Separation Agreement at any time prior to October 14, 2009, the expiration date of the statutory revocation period (the “Revocation Period”).  Regardless of whether Mr. Rosler revokes the Separation Agreement during the Revocation Period, his resignation from the Board of Directors of the Company is irrevocable as of the Separation Date.

 

The terms of the Separation Agreement include the following:

 

·                  The Company will pay Mr. Rosler a lump sum severance payment of $75,000 (the “Severance Payment”).

·                  Mr. Rosler and his trust forfeit and surrender all right, title and interest in and to an aggregate of 463,500 vested and unvested options to purchase Company common stock that he and the trust currently own.

·                  Mr. Rosler will be entitled to continued Company-paid medical coverage until October 31, 2009.  Thereafter, Mr. Rosler will receive any benefits to which he may be entitled under COBRA at his expense.

·                  Mr. Rosler releases and waives all claims he may have against the Company in any capacity as well as those against the Company’s officers, directors, shareholders, subsidiaries and other related parties.

·                  The Employment Agreement, dated April 8, 2008, between Mr. Rosler and the Company is terminated, except for those provisions that expressly survive termination.

 

The above terms are subject to Mr. Rosler’s not revoking the Separation Agreement during the Revocation Period, and will only become effective at the end of the Revocation Period.

 

The description of the Separation Agreement in this Item 5.02 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
