Explanatory Note

Stem, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Form 8-K/A as an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on August 8, 2024 (the “Original 8-K”), reporting that William Bush would be stepping down as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective September 2, 2024. Mr. Bush’s employment with the Company ended on November 8, 2024 (the “Separation Date”). The Company is filing this Amendment to the Original 8-K to disclose material terms of a separation and release of claims agreement that the Company entered into with Mr. Bush on January 30, 2025 in connection with his departure, which was not yet finalized at the time of the filing of the Original 8-K.

 

Item 5.02

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

On January 30, 2025, the Company and Mr. Bush entered into a Separation and Release of Claims Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Bush is entitled to receive the following payments and benefits in accordance with the existing terms of his employment agreement with the Company: (i) a cash payment of $318,750, being equal to nine months of his annual base salary in effect on the Separation Date, less applicable withholdings, (ii) payment of a pro rata portion of his annual incentive bonus for fiscal year 2024, based on actual achievement of the applicable bonus objectives and conditions determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, and (iii) reimbursement for up to nine months following the Separation Date for 100% of the monthly premium costs of continuation coverage under COBRA. The Separation Agreement further provides that (1) all of Mr. Bush’s outstanding and unvested stock options and restricted stock units as of the Separation Date will be cancelled and forfeited automatically, and (2) all of his stock options that are vested as of the Separation Date will remain exercisable until the earlier of (A) the date three months following the Separation Date and (B) the expiration of the term of such stock options as set forth in the applicable award agreement. All of the foregoing are in consideration of Mr. Bush’s non-revocation of the release of claims in favor of the Company, and his continued compliance with certain confidentiality, non-disparagement, and non-competition covenants.

The foregoing is a summary description of certain material terms of the Separation Agreement and, by its nature, is incomplete. It is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Separation Agreement, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2025.
