SECTION 1 – REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS

 

Item 1.01

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On July 5, 2006, Iomega Corporation (“Iomega”) entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release with Anna Aguirre, Vice President, Human Resources and Facilities. As a result of the restructuring in the second quarter, Ms. Aguirre’s employment was terminated. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Ms. Aguirre will receive a severance benefit in an amount equal to nine months of her current annual salary (this sum is based on her July 2001 employment agreement and the separation provisions therein, as amended in July 2005), and she will give Iomega a release of any and all claims and a promise not to solicit personnel; the sum of $142,500 will be paid to her in bi-weekly installments, less applicable taxes. In addition, she will receive a lump sum payment of $12,074, less taxes, which equals the cost of continuing her current medical benefits for a period of nine months. Iomega will also provide executive outplacement services at its discretion.
