On March 14, 2022, in connection with Mr. Goone’s retirement, ICE entered into a Transition and Separation Agreement with Mr. Goone (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Goone will serve as Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer, effective March 16, 2022. Mr. Goone is expected to remain as an employee of ICE until February 28, 2024 to facilitate an orderly transition of his duties and job responsibilities. Mr. Goone’s duties to ICE during this transition period will consist of providing advisory services on financial, strategic, market and regulatory matters to one or more of the Chief Executive Officer, the President of ICE and/or their delegees. Mr. Goone will not be eligible to receive any bonus for 2022. Effective March 16, 2022, Mr. Goone will receive a base salary of $20,000 per year and will continue to vest in his existing equity awards (except that any equity awards granted to Mr. Goone in February 2022 shall be cancelled and forfeited in their entirety) and continue to receive his other standard benefits while employed with ICE. No severance payment will be provided to Mr. Goone. The Separation Agreement also contains standard non-competition and non-solicitation provisions, as well as confidentiality, waiver and non-disparagement provisions and a general release of claims against ICE.
