The agreement includes standard benefits for executives, such as retirement and insurance programs. In terms of severance, Cox would receive a payout equivalent to one year’s base salary plus the greater of his most recent annual bonus or 25% of his base salary, should he be terminated without cause or resign for good reason.

The employment agreement also stipulates that Cox must sign a release of claims agreement to be eligible for severance payments and other benefits. Furthermore, he is bound by non-competition and non-solicitation clauses for 12 months post-employment, prohibiting him from competing with MIND Technology or soliciting its customers, suppliers, or employees.
