On February 28, 2024, International Money Express, Inc. (the “Company”), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Intermex Holdings, Inc. (“Intermex”), entered into an amended and restated employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Robert Lisy effective as of January 1, 2024, pursuant to which Mr. Lisy will continue to provide services as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Intermex and the Company.

The Employment Agreement is materially the same as the prior employment agreement with Mr. Lisy except for the changes outlined below:


The term of the Employment Agreement was extended for four years until December 31, 2027 (with automatic one year extensions subject to 90 days’ written notice of non-renewal by either party).
 
Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Lisy’s annual base salary for calendar year 2024 will remain $1,000,000, but shall increase to an annual rate of $1,050,000 on January 1, 2025, $1,102,500 on January 1, 2026, and $1,157,625 on January 1, 2027, as long as Mr. Lisy remains employed with the Company through that time.

The Employment Agreement continues to provide that Mr. Lisy shall have the opportunity to earn a performance based bonus with a target annual bonus opportunity of 125% of his then-current base salary, based on achievement of certain EBITDA results.
 
The Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Lisy shall, subject to his continued employment, receive no later than March 15 of each year during the term of the Employment Agreement, a grant of restricted stock and a grant of performance stock units under the Company’s long term incentive program, each with an aggregate grant date fair value of $2,100,000, in 2024, $2,225,000, in 2025, $2,337,500, in 2026, and as determined by the Compensation Committee, but no less than $2,337,500, in 2027, each as computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The vesting terms and performance goals will be determined by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant of the awards under the Company’s 2020 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan in the first quarter of the applicable year.

The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement is intended only as a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Employment Agreement, which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
