Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

As previously disclosed, on January 6, 2025 (the “Transition Date”), Mister Car Wash, Inc. (the “Company”) initiated an employment transition for Markus Hartmann, pursuant to which he ceased to serve as General Counsel of the Company. On January 24, 2025, the Company and Mr. Hartmann entered into a Transition and Severance Agreement (the “Transition Agreement”), effective as of the Transition Date. Pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement, Mr. Hartmann will continue to be employed with, and provide transition services to, the Company from the Transition Date through February 6, 2025 (the “Separation Date,” and such period, the “Transition Period”).

 

The Transition Agreement provides that: (1) Mr. Hartmann will continue to receive his base salary during the Transition Period; (2) the Company will continue to pay the employer portion of premiums for the continuation of Mr. Hartmann’s healthcare coverage until February 28, 2025; and (3) Mr. Hartmann will continue to be eligible to earn an annual cash performance bonus under the MCW Executive Bonus Program for the 2024 fiscal year, payable pursuant to the terms of that program. Additionally, Mr. Hartmann’s unvested equity awards that are scheduled to vest in 2025 will accelerate and immediately vest on the Separation Date, and all remaining unvested equity awards will be forfeited. Further, the exercise period for his vested options shall be extended for a period of 12 months following the Separation Date.

 

Following the Transition Period, the Transition Agreement provides that from February 7, 2025 through March 6, 2026 (the “Severance Period”), Mr. Hartmann will receive a monthly severance payment of $30,000, reduced by taxes and withholdings. Commencing February 28, 2025, Mr. Hartmann will also be eligible for a continuation of healthcare coverage at his own expense under the provisions of COBRA for a period of up to 18 months. The employer and employee portion of premiums for the continuation of Mr. Hartmann’s healthcare coverage until March 31, 2026 will be added to his monthly severance payments.

 

The Transition Agreement also includes customary confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions, as well as a release by Mr. Hartmann of any claims against the Company.
