TABLE OF CONTENTS


CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) includes statements of our expectations, intentions, plans, and beliefs that constitute “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements are principally, but not solely, contained in the section captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our strategies, plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, expenditures and assumptions and other statements contained herein that are not historical facts. Our forward-looking statements are generally, but not always, accompanied by words such as, but not limited to, “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “goal,” “intend” “may,” “might,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “possible,” “project,” “predict,” “potential,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or phrases, or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes, which are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections and related assumptions, about future events and financial trends. While our management considers these expectations, projections and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that actual developments will be as we anticipate. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements as a result of significant risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to:
our ability to qualify for and obtain broadband licenses from the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) in accordance with the requirements of the Report and Order approved by the FCC on May 13, 2020 (the “Report and Order”);
our ability to successfully commercialize our spectrum assets to our targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers on a timely basis and on commercially favorable terms, including our ability to lease our spectrum on financial terms consistent with our business plan and assumptions;
our ability to fulfill the platform initiatives of our Integrated Platform to drive industrywide 900 MHz private broadband innovations and solutions;
our ability to correctly estimate our operating expenses and future revenues;
our ability to support our future operations and business plans and return capital to our stockholders through our share repurchase program with our existing cash resources and the proceeds we generate from our commercial operations without the need to raise additional capital through the issuance of stock or debt securities;
the extent and duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, ability to fulfill our contractual obligations to our customers, results of operations, stock price, or overall financial condition;
our ability to retune or relocate incumbent narrowband licensees in a timely manner and on commercially reasonable terms, or at all;
our ability to satisfy our obligations, including the delivery of cleared spectrum and broadband licenses, and the other contingencies required by our commercial agreements with Ameren Corporation (“Ameren”), San Diego Gas & Electric Company, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy (“SDG&E”), and Evergy, Inc. (“Evergy”) on a timely basis and on commercially reasonable terms;
whether federal and state agencies and commissions will support the deployment of broadband networks and services by our targeted customers;
our ability to maintain any narrowband and broadband licenses that we own, acquire and/or obtain from the FCC;
government regulations or actions taken by governmental bodies could adversely affect our business prospects, liquidity and results of operations, including any changes by the FCC to the Report and Order or to the FCC rules and regulations governing the 900 MHz band;
our ability to successfully compete against the third parties who offer spectrum and communication technologies, products and solutions to our targeted customers;
our ability to successfully manage our planned growth;
the ability to develop and sustain a robust market for our common stock;
factors that may cause our common stock price to be volatile or cause the value of our common stock to decline;
3

the expected timing and amount of purchases and the related impact to our common stock relating to our share repurchase program; and
how the concentrated ownership of our common stock may limit stockholders’ ability to influence corporate matters.
The matters discussed in these forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Many of these risks, uncertainties and other factors are beyond our ability to control, influence, or predict. The most significant of these risks, uncertainties and other factors are described in “Item 1A—Risk Factors” in Part II of this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on May 26, 2022. As a result, investors are urged not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our views and assumptions only as of the date such forward-looking statements were made. Except to the limited extent required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Anterix Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.    Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Anterix Inc. (the “Company”) is a wireless communications company focused on commercializing its spectrum assets to enable its targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers to deploy private broadband networks and on offering innovative broadband technologies and solutions to the same target customers. The Company is the largest holder of licensed spectrum in the 900 MHz band (896 - 901 / 935 - 940 MHz) with nationwide coverage throughout the contiguous United States, Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico. On May 13, 2020, the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) approved the Report and Order (the “Report and Order”) to modernize and realign the 900 MHz band to increase its usability and capacity by allowing it to be utilized for the deployment of broadband networks, technologies and solutions. The Report and Order was published in the Federal Register on July 16, 2020 and became effective on August 17, 2020. The Company is now engaged in qualifying for and securing broadband licenses from the FCC. At the same time, the Company is pursuing opportunities to lease the broadband spectrum it secures to its targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers.

The Company was originally incorporated in California in 1997 and reincorporated in Delaware in 2014. In November 2015, the Company changed its name from Pacific DataVision, Inc. to pdvWireless, Inc. In August 2019, the Company changed its name from pdvWireless, Inc. to Anterix Inc. The Company maintains offices in Woodland Park, New Jersey, McLean, Virginia and Abilene, Texas.
Business Developments
In September 2021, the Company entered into a long-term lease agreement of 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum with Evergy, Inc. (“Evergy”) (the “Evergy Agreement”). The Evergy service territories covered by the Evergy Agreement are in Kansas and Missouri with a population of approximately 3.9 million people. The Evergy Agreement is for a term of up to 40 years, comprised of an initial term of 20 years with two 10-year renewal options for additional payments. The Company received full prepayment of $30.2 million for the initial 20-year term in October 2021. During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company leased to Evergy the first deliverable of 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses for 45 counties. The revenue recognized for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $0.1 million.
In February 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with San Diego Gas & Electric Company, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy (“SDG&E”), to provide 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum throughout SDG&E’s California service territory, including San Diego and Imperial Counties and portions of Orange County for a total payment of $50.0 million. The total payment of $50.0 million is comprised of an initial payment of $20.0 million received in February 2021 and the remaining $30.0 million payment, which is due through fiscal year 2024 as the Company delivers the associated broadband licenses to SDG&E and the relevant cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company delivered to SDG&E 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband license related to Imperial County and received a milestone payment of $0.2 million. See Note 9 Contingencies for further discussion.
On May 18, 2022, the Company issued Motorola 500,000 shares of its common stock (the “Shares”). Motorola received the Shares by electing to convert 500,000 Class B Units (the “Units”) it held in the Company’s subsidiary, PDV Spectrum Holding Company, LLC (the “Subsidiary”). Motorola acquired the Units in September 2014 in connection with a Spectrum Lease Agreement between Motorola and the Subsidiary (the “2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement”). Under the 2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement, Motorola leased a portion of the Company’s narrowband spectrum, which was held by the Subsidiary, in consideration for an upfront, fully-paid leasing fee of $7.5 million and a $10.0 million investment in the Units. Motorola had the right at any time to convert its Units into the Shares, representing a conversion price of $20.00 per share.
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”),
10

certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on May 26, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”). In the Company’s opinion all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. The Company believes that the disclosures made in the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year. The Company is also required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the report amounts. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the applicable period. Accordingly, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Correction of Immaterial Errors
Depreciation, disposals and impairments
In connection with preparing its financial statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company determined that it understated depreciation and overstated loss on disposal of long-lived assets in its Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021.
In March 2021, the Company classified idled assets as Held for Future Use and suspended the depreciation for these assets. The Company determined that the depreciation should have been recognized evenly over the life of the asset without regard to whether the assets have been placed in service or in use. Additionally, the Company reported disposals of assets that were in-use and misclassified certain disposals as impairments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021.
The following table is a comparison of the results of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, as a result of the correction of the immaterial error (in thousands except per share data):

Share retirement
In connection with preparing its financial statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company determined that it incorrectly presented additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit in its Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the period ended September 30, 2021.
The Company previously reported the retirement of shares from a May 2021 option exercise as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. The retirement of shares should have been reported as an increase to accumulated deficit. This transaction was presented in the stock option exercises line within the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. However, the Company should have reported this transaction in a separate line, retirement of common stock, along with the retirement of shares from the Company’s share repurchase program (refer to Note 7 Stockholders’
11

Equity for further discussion on the Company’s share repurchase program). Additionally, as a result of this error, the Company incorrectly omitted the shares surrendered from stock option exercises non-cash disclosure.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and has subsequently modified several areas of the Accounting Standards Codification 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, in order to provide additional clarity and improvements. The new standard requires entities to use a Current Expected Credit Loss impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under this model, an entity would recognize an impairment allowance equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows that the entity does not expect to collect from financial assets measured at amortized cost within the scope of the standard. The entity’s estimate would consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, which will result in recognition of lifetime expected credit losses. As the Company was previously a smaller reporting company, the standard updates would have been effective beginning April 2023, however, due to the transition to a large accelerated filer during the 2022 fiscal year, the updates were effective for the Company as of the fiscal year end 2022. The Company adopted the new standard effective March 31, 2022, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
While there have been accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date, these updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

2.Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the respective periods.

Refer to the 2022 Annual Report for a description of the Company's spectrum revenue agreements.
Contract Assets
The Company recognizes a contract asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. These costs include sales commissions. These costs are amortized ratably using the portfolio approach over the estimated customer contract period. The Company will review the contract asset on a periodic basis to determine if an impairment exists, and subsequent to the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-13, will review the contract assets for potential credit loss exposure. If it is determined that there is an impairment, or a potential credit loss, the Company will expense the contract asset.
For the six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred and capitalized commission costs related to activities to obtain its long-term 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum lease agreements amounting to approximately $62,000 and $127,000, respectively. These capitalized costs will be amortized over the contractual term upon the commencement of the associated agreements.

3.    Intangible Assets
Wireless licenses are considered indefinite-lived intangible assets. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not subject to amortization but instead are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if an event indicates that the asset might be impaired. There were no triggering events indicating impairment during the six months ended September 30, 2022.
During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company acquired wireless licenses for cash consideration of $4.7 million, after receiving FCC approval, of which $3.7 million was spent on licenses acquired, including costs associated with license swaps, by entering into agreements with several third parties in multiple U.S. markets and $1.0 million was paid to the U.S. Treasury for Anti-Windfall payments, i.e. payments to cover any shortfall of channels needed in a given county to reach the requisite 240 channels required to be surrendered to secure a broadband license for such county. As of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company recorded initial deposits to incumbents amounting to approximately $10.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively, that are refundable if the FCC does not approve the sale, swap or retuning of the spectrum. Of the $10.7 million initial refundable deposit balance as of September 30, 2022, $10.1 million was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and the remaining $0.6 million in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Of the $8.0 million initial refundable deposit balance as of March 31, 2022, $7.6 million was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and the remaining $0.4 million in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company recorded deferred charges of $7.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively, related to closed retuning deals, of which $0.5 million and $0.2 million was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $6.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, was recorded in other assets.
During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company applied for, and was granted by the FCC, broadband licenses for 45 counties in connection with the long-term lease agreement with Evergy. The Company recorded the new broadband licenses collectively at their estimated accounting cost basis of approximately $4.9 million. In connection with receiving the broadband licenses, the Company disposed of $1.3 million of the value ascribed to the narrowband licenses it relinquished to the FCC for the same 45 counties. The total carrying value of narrowband licenses included the cost to acquire the original narrowband licenses, Anti-Windfall payments paid to cover the shortfall in each county and the clearing costs. As a result of the exchanges of narrowband licenses for broadband licenses, the Company recorded a gain on disposal of intangible assets of $2.9 million and $3.6 million, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

4.    Related Party Transactions
Refer to the Company’s 2022 Annual Report for a more complete description of the nature of its related party transactions prior to March 31, 2022. The following reflects the related party activity during the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
In connection with the Service Revenue Transfer, the Company was obligated to pay a monthly service fee for a 24-month period that ended on January 7, 2021, for its assumption of support obligations under the transfer agreements. The Company is also obligated to pay a certain portion of the billed revenue received by the Company from pdvConnect customers for a 48-month period. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company incurred payments of $15,000 and $30,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company did not have outstanding liabilities to the related parties associated with the service transfer.
In connection with the 2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement, the Company had the ability to purchase equipment from Motorola while also leasing the Company’s narrowband spectrum. Unrelated to this agreement, the Company purchased equipment from Motorola in the amount of $622,000 during the three and six months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company owed $120,000 to Motorola.
During 2020, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Rachelle B. Chong under which Ms. Chong will serve as a Senior Advisor to the Company’s management team, subsequent to her resignation from the Company’s Board and as a member of the Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Company extended the agreement by an additional twelve (12) months with a new termination date of May 14, 2023. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company incurred $36,000 and $72,000 in consulting fees to Ms. Chong, respectively.

McAuley under which Mr. McAuley will serve as a Senior Advisor to the Company’s management team and provide strategic, corporate governance and Board advisory services, subsequent to his resignation as Executive Chairman of the Board. The Consulting Agreement was effective as of September 2, 2020, with an original expiration date of September 1, 2021. The Company extended the agreement by an additional twenty four (24) months with a new termination date of September 1, 2023. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company incurred $10,000 and $20,000 in consulting fees to Mr. McAuley, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding liabilities to Mr. McAuley.

5.    Leases

All leases in which the Company is the lessee are comprised of corporate office space and tower space. The Company is obligated under certain lease agreements for office space with lease terms expiring on various dates from October 31, 2023 through June 30, 2027, which includes lease extensions for its corporate headquarters ranging from three to ten years. The Company entered into multiple lease agreements for tower space with lease expiration dates ranging from November 30, 2022 to April 30, 2028.

All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases, and as such, were previously not recognized on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. With the adoption of ASC 842, operating lease agreements are required to be recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as right of use (“ROU”) assets and corresponding lease liabilities.
15

ROU assets include any prepaid lease payments and exclude any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.
Weighted-average remaining lease term and incremental borrowing rate for the Company’s operating leases are as follows:
 Six months ended September 30,

6.    Income Taxes
The Company’s net operating losses (“NOLs”) generated after March 31, 2018 may be used as an indefinite-lived asset to offset its deferred tax liability but are limited to 80% of future taxable income. The deferred tax liabilities as of September 30, 2022 are approximately $2.5 million for federal and $2.1 million for state.
For the year ended March 31, 2022, the Company had federal and state NOL carryforwards of approximately $330.7 million and $191.8 million, respectively. Of these federal and state NOLs, approximately $90.3 million and $154.5 million, respectively, are expiring in various amounts from 2023 through 2038. The remaining federal and state NOLs of approximately $240.4 million and $37.3 million, respectively, have an indefinite life but the federal NOLs may only offset 80% of taxable income when used.
For the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred federal and state operating losses of approximately $27.9 million and $16.7 million, respectively, to offset future taxable income, of which $31.2 million can be carried forward indefinitely but can only offset 80% of taxable income when used.
The Company used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022. The Company determined that applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate would not provide a reasonable estimate as small changes in estimated “ordinary” loss would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate. Accordingly, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a total deferred tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.4 million due to the inability to use some portion of federal and state NOL carryforwards against the deferred tax liability created by amortization of indefinite-lived intangibles.
7.    Stockholders’ Equity
The Company established the 2014 Stock Plan (the “2014 Stock Plan”) to attract, retain and reward individuals who contribute to the achievement of the Company’s goals and objectives. This 2014 Stock Plan superseded previous stock plans.
The Board has reserved 5,027,201 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2014 Stock Plan as of September 30, 2022, of which 744,105 shares are available for future issuance. Historically, the number of shares reserved under the 2014 Stock Plan were increased, based on Board approval, each January 1 by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 5% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or (ii) a lesser amount determined by the Board (the “evergreen provision”). Effective January 1, 2021, the Board elected to increase the shares authorized under the 2014 Stock Plan by 879,216 shares, which represented 5% of the of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2020. On June 14, 2021, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved Amendment No. 1 to 2014 Stock Plan to eliminate the evergreen provision for all future years (i.e., January 1, 2022 through January 1, 2024).
17

During the six months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended March 31, 2022, a total of 192,325 and 979,320 shares, respectively, were issued in connection with the vesting, conversion and or exercise of grants under the Company’s 2014 Stock Plan.
Share retirement
In May 2021, the Company reacquired 20,132 shares when a participant surrendered already-owned shares of the Company’s common stock to cover the exercise price of an outstanding stock option exercised by the participant. The 20,132 shares surrendered were constructively retired by the Company as of June 30, 2021, which resulted in the non-cash reduction of approximately $1.0 million in accumulated deficit in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. As discussed in Note 1 Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation, the Company has reclassified the reduction to additional paid in capital to accumulated deficit and presented this as a correction of an error.
Share repurchase program
In September 2021, the Board authorized a share repurchase program (the “share repurchase program”) pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock on or before September 29, 2023. The manner, timing and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company based on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions and alternative investment opportunities. The share repurchase program authorization does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. Under the program, shares may be repurchased in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions, including under plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The following table presents the share repurchase activity for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands, except per share data):
 Three months ended September 30,Six months ended September 30,

*Average price paid per share includes costs associated with the repurchase.
As of September 30, 2022, $30.3 million is remaining under the share repurchase program.
Motorola Shares
On September 15, 2014, Motorola invested $10.0 million to purchase 500,000 Class B Units of the Company’s Subsidiary (at a price equal to $20.00 per unit). The Company owns 100% of the Class A Units in the Subsidiary. Motorola had the right at any time to convert its 500,000 Class B Units into 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and on May 18, 2022, Motorola exercised such right to convert its 500,000 Class B Units into 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On June 30, 2022, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register the 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by Motorola for the resale or other disposition of such shares by Motorola (the “Resale Registration Statement”). The Resale Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on July 15, 2022.
8.    Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, preferred stock, stock options, restricted stock and warrants are considered to be potentially dilutive securities. Because the Company has reported a net loss for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss per common share for those periods.
18

Common stock equivalents resulting from potentially dilutive securities approximated 439,000 and 1,454,000 at September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and have not been included in the dilutive weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, as their effects are anti-dilutive.
9.    Contingencies
Contingent Liability
In February 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with SDG&E to sell 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum throughout SDG&E’s California service territory, including San Diego and Imperial Counties and portions of Orange County (the “SDG&E Agreement”), for a total payment of $50.0 million. The SDG&E Agreement will support SDG&E’s deployment of a private LTE network for its California service territory, with a population of approximately 3.6 million people. Delivery of the relevant 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses by county to SDG&E commenced in fiscal year 2023 and is scheduled for completion before the end of fiscal year 2024. The total payment of $50.0 million is comprised of an initial payment of $20.0 million received in February 2021 and the remaining $30.0 million payment, which is due through fiscal year 2024 as the Company delivers the relevant cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses to SDG&E. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company delivered to SDG&E 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband license related to Imperial County and received a milestone payment of $0.2 million. The SDG&E Agreement is subject to customary provisions regarding remedies, including reduced payment amounts and/or refund of amounts paid, and termination rights, if a party fails to perform its contractual obligations. A gain or loss on the sale of spectrum will be recognized for each county once the Company delivers the cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses to SDG&E in full.
As the Company is required to refund payments it has received in the event of termination or non-delivery of the specific county's 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum, it recorded the $20.2 million received from SDG&E as contingent liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of September 30, 2022, the Company recorded the $20.2 million payments from SDG&E as a short-term liability due to the expected timing of delivery.
Litigation
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation that arises from the ordinary operations of the business, such as contractual or employment disputes or other general actions. The Company is not involved in any material legal proceedings at this time.
COVID-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic and COVID-19 continues to cause significant disruptions throughout the world. The ultimate extent of the impact of COVID-19 on future financial performance of the Company will depend on ongoing developments, all of which remain uncertain and cannot be predicted. The Company continues to closely monitor the risks posed by COVID-19 and adjusts its practices accordingly.

In December 2020, the Company deferred payroll taxes under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act, which was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The deferral amounted to approximately $0.3 million, which has assisted the Company in managing the financial impact caused by the pandemic. Of the total deferred, approximately $0.2 million was remitted to the IRS during Fiscal 2022, with the remaining amount due by December 31, 2022.
10.    Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The cash balance at times may exceed federally insured limits, however, the Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with financial institutions for which credit loss is not anticipated.
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s operating revenue was entirely from upfront, fully paid fees received from Motorola, Ameren and Evergy, as discussed in Note 2 Revenue.
19

As of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company does not have an outstanding accounts receivable balance.
11.    Subsequent Events
Xcel Energy Agreement
On October 28, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Xcel Energy Services Inc. (“Xcel Energy”) providing Xcel Energy dedicated long-term usage of the Company’s 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum for a term of 20 years throughout the Company’s service territory in eight states (the “Xcel Energy Agreement”). The Xcel Energy Agreement also provides Xcel Energy an option to extend the agreement for two 10-year terms for additional payments. The Xcel Agreement allows Xcel Energy to deploy a private LTE network to support its grid modernization initiatives for the benefit of its approximately 3.7 million electricity customers and 2.1 million natural gas customers.

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Anterix Inc. (“Anterix,” the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) and the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 26, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”). In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors including, but not limited to, those identified or referenced in “Item 1A—Risk Factors” in Part II of this Quarterly Report. As a result, investors are urged not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except to the limited extent required by applicable law, we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report.
Overview
We are a wireless communications company focused on commercializing our spectrum assets to enable our targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers to deploy private broadband networks and on offering innovative broadband technologies and solutions to the same target customers. We are the largest holder of licensed spectrum in the 900 MHz band (896 - 901 / 935 - 940 MHz) with nationwide coverage throughout the contiguous United States, Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico. On May 13, 2020, the FCC approved the Report and Order to modernize and realign the 900 MHz band to increase its usability and capacity by allowing it to be utilized for the deployment of broadband networks, technologies and solutions. The Report and Order was published in the Federal Register on July 16, 2020 and became effective on August 17, 2020. We are now engaged in qualifying for and securing broadband licenses from the FCC. At the same time, we are pursuing opportunities to lease the broadband spectrum we secure to our targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers.

We were originally incorporated in California in 1997 and reincorporated in Delaware in 2014. In November 2015, we changed our name from Pacific DataVision, Inc. to pdvWireless, Inc. In August 2019, we changed our name from pdvWireless, Inc. to Anterix Inc. We maintain offices in Woodland Park, New Jersey, McLean, Virginia and Abilene, Texas.
Refer to our 2022 Annual Report for a more complete description of the nature of our business, including details regarding the process and costs to secure our broadband licenses.
Business Developments
On October 28, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Xcel Energy Services Inc. (“Xcel Energy”) providing Xcel Energy dedicated long-term usage of our 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum for a term of 20 years throughout our service territory in eight states (the “Xcel Energy Agreement”). The Xcel Energy Agreement also provides Xcel Energy an option to extend the agreement for two 10-year terms for additional payments. The Xcel Agreement allows Xcel Energy to deploy a private LTE network to support its grid modernization initiatives for the benefit of its approximately 3.7 million electricity customers and 2.1 million natural gas customers.
In September 2021, we entered into a long-term lease agreement of 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum with Evergy (the “Evergy Agreement”). The Evergy service territories covered by the Evergy Agreement are in Kansas and Missouri with a population of approximately 3.9 million people. The Evergy Agreement is for a term of up to 40 years, comprised of an initial term of 20 years with two 10-year renewal options for additional payments. We received full prepayment of $30.2 million for the initial 20-year term in October 2021. During the six months ended September 30, 2022, we leased to Evergy the first deliverable of 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses for 45 counties. The revenue recognized for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $0.1 million.
In February 2021, we entered into an agreement with SDG&E, to provide 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum throughout SDG&E’s California service territory, including San Diego and Imperial Counties and portions of Orange County for a total payment of $50.0 million. The total payment of $50.0 million is comprised of an initial payment of $20.0 million received in February 2021 and the remaining $30.0 million payment, which is due through fiscal year 2024 as we deliver the associated broadband licenses to SDG&E and the relevant cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we delivered to SDG&E 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband license related to Imperial County and received a milestone payment of $0.2 million.
21

On May 18, 2022, we issued Motorola 500,000 shares of our common stock (the “Shares”). Motorola received the Shares by electing to convert 500,000 Class B Units (the “Units”) it held in our subsidiary, PDV Spectrum Holding Company, LLC (the “Subsidiary”). Motorola acquired the Units in September 2014 in connection with a Spectrum Lease Agreement between Motorola and the Subsidiary (the “2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement”). Under the 2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement, Motorola leased a portion of our narrowband spectrum, which was held by the Subsidiary, in consideration for an upfront, fully-paid leasing fee of $7.5 million and a $10.0 million investment in the Units. On June 30, 2022, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register the 500,000 shares of our common stock held by Motorola for resale or other disposition by Motorola (the “Resale Registration Statement”). The Resale Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on July 15, 2022.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we exchanged our narrowband licenses for broadband licenses in 33 counties. In connection with the exchange, we recorded an estimated accounting cost basis of $4.0 million for the new broadband licenses and disposed of $1.1 million related to the value ascribed to the narrowband licenses we relinquished to the FCC for those same 33 counties. As a result, we recorded a $2.9 million gain from disposal of the intangible assets in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2022. During the six months ended September 30, 2022, we exchanged our narrowband licenses for broadband licenses in 45 counties. In connection with the exchange, we recorded an estimated accounting cost basis of $4.9 million for the new broadband licenses and disposed of $1.3 million related to the value ascribed to the narrowband licenses we relinquished to the FCC for those same 45 counties. As a result, we recorded a $3.6 million gain from disposal of the intangible assets in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended September 30, 2022. Refer to Note 3 Intangibles in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained within this Quarterly Report for further discussion on the exchanges.
During the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, we exchanged our narrowband licenses for broadband licenses in 12 counties. In connection with the exchange, we recorded an estimated accounting cost basis of $13.6 million for the new broadband licenses and disposed of $3.4 million related to the value ascribed to the narrowband licenses we

Income tax expense $215 $152 $63 41 %$415 $298 $117 39 %
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded a total deferred tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, due to the inability to use some portion of federal and state NOL carryforwards against the deferred tax liability created by amortization of indefinite-lived intangibles.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law. The new CARES Act modified Section 172(b)(1)(A) of the Code to state that NOL arising in a taxable year beginning before January 1, 2018, is carried forward 20 years provided that a carryback claim is not affected. From this adjusted provision, our March 31, 2018 NOL carryforward changed from an indefinite life to a 20-year life. We used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021. We determined that applying an
24

estimate of the annual effective tax rate would not provide a reasonable estimate as small changes in estimated “ordinary” loss would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate. Accordingly, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded a total deferred tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, due to the inability to use some portion of our federal and state NOL carryforwards against the deferred tax liability created by amortization of indefinite-lived intangibles.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $70.1 million.
We believe our cash and cash equivalents on hand will be sufficient to meet our financial obligations through at least 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report. As noted above, our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including among others, the costs and timing of our spectrum retuning activities, spectrum acquisitions and the Anti-Windfall Payments to the U.S. Treasury, our operating activities, any cash proceeds we generate through our commercialization activities and our ability to timely deliver broadband licenses to our customers in accordance with our contractual obligations. We will deploy capital at our determined pace based on several key ongoing factors, including customer demand, market opportunity, and offsetting income from spectrum leases. As we cannot predict the duration or scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our Company or our targeted customers, the potential negative financial impact to our results of operations and financial condition cannot be reasonably estimated. We are actively managing our business to maintain our cash flow and believe that we currently have adequate liquidity. To implement our business plans and initiatives, however, we may need to raise additional capital. We cannot predict with certainty the exact amount or timing for any future capital raises. See “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report for a reference to the risks and uncertainties that could cause our costs to be more than we currently anticipate and/or our revenue and operating results to be lower than we currently anticipate. If required, we intend to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings, including pursuant to our Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below) or through some other financing arrangement. However, we cannot be sure that additional financing will be available if and when needed, or that, if available, we can obtain financing on terms favorable to our stockholders and to us. Any failure to obtain financing when required will have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and liquidity.
On April 3, 2020, we filed a shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 with the SEC that was declared effective by the SEC on April 20, 2020, which permits us to offer up to $150.0 million of common stock, preferred stock, warrants or units in one or more offerings and in any combination, including in units from time to time. Our Shelf Registration Statement is intended to provide us with additional flexibility to access capital markets for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditures, repayment of debt, other corporate expenses and acquisitions of complementary products, technologies, or businesses.
We entered into an Amended and Restated Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement and an Amended and Restated Sales Agreement (collectively, the “Sales Agreements”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and B. Riley FBR, Inc., respectively (collectively, the “Agents”). On April 3, 2020, we registered the sale of up to an aggregate of $50.0 million, in shares of our common stock in at the market sales transactions pursuant to the Sales Agreements under the Shelf Registration Statement. Through the date of this filing, we have not sold any shares of our common stock in at the market transactions or any securities under the Shelf Registration Statement.

attributable to stock compensation expense). The majority of net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2021, resulted from a net loss of $13.8 million, gain on disposal of intangible assets of $10.2 million and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses by $1.6 million, partially offset by non-cash stock-based compensation of $6.5 million and deferred revenue of $5.1 million.
Net cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $12.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $12.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, primarily to acquire, swap or retune wireless licenses in markets across the United States.

For the six months ended September 30, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily from the proceeds from stock option exercises.
Material Cash Requirements
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including: the timeline and costs to acquire broadband licenses pursuant to the Report and Order, including the costs to acquire additional spectrum, the costs related to retuning, or swapping spectrum held by 900 MHz site-based licensees in the broadband segment that is required under section 90.621(b) to be protected by a broadband licensee with a base station at any location within the county, or any 900 MHz geographic-based SMR licensee in the broadband segment whose license area completely or partially overlaps the county, and the costs of paying Anti-Windfall Payments to the U.S. Treasury; costs related to the commercializing of our spectrum assets; and our ability to sign customer contracts and generate revenues from the license or transfer of any broadband licenses we secure; the terms and conditions of any customer contracts, including the timing of payments.
Share Repurchase Program
In September 2021, our Board authorized a share repurchase program pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $50.0 million of our common stock on or before September 29, 2023. The manner, timing and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by us based on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions and alternative investment opportunities. The share repurchase program authorization does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares. Under the program, shares may be repurchased in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions, including under plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We currently anticipate the cash used for the share repurchase program will come primarily from our prepaid customer agreements.
The following table presents the share repurchase activity for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands, except per share data):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our financial instruments consist of cash, cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable. We consider investments in highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest income sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. However, because of the short-term nature of the highly liquid instruments in our portfolio, a 10% change in market interest rates would not be expected to have a material impact on our financial condition and/or results of operations.
Our operations are based in the United States and, accordingly, all of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars. We are currently not exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency.
We continue to monitor our market risk exposure, including any adverse impacts related to COVID-19, which has resulted in significant market volatility.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of such period.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PLAN


1.Purpose of the Plan

The Anterix Board of Directors (the “Board”) believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to encourage the continued employment and dedication of certain executives and key employees by providing economic security to such individuals in the event of certain terminations of employment, and the Plan has been established for this purpose. The Plan is intended to be a “welfare plan” under ERISA providing benefits to a select group of management or highly compensated employees as described in DOL Regulation Section 2520.104-24. Capitalized terms used in the Plan are defined in Section 10 (Definitions), except as otherwise specified.

2.Effective Date

The Plan shall be effective only with respect to a termination of employment covered by the Plan that occurs on or after February 18, 2015 (the” Effective Date”).

3.Administration

The Committee shall act as the plan administrator and the “named fiduciary” of the Plan for purposes of ERISA. Before a Change in Control, the Committee has sole and absolute discretion and authority to administer the Plan, including the sole and absolute discretion and authority to:

oadopt such rules as it deems advisable in connection with the administration of the Plan, and to construe, interpret, apply and enforce the Plan and any such rules and to remedy ambiguities, errors or omissions in the Plan:

odetermine questions of eligibility and entitlement to benefits and any other terms of the Plan applicable to the Participants; the Committees determinations are conclusive and binding on all parties affected by its determinations;

oact under the Plan on a case-by-case basis; the Committee’s decisions under the Plan need not be uniform with respect to similarly situated Participants; and

odelegate its authority under the Plan to any director, officer, employee, or group of directors, officers and/or employees of the Company.

If any person with administrative authority becomes eligible or makes a claim for Plan benefits, that person will have no authority with respect to any matter specifically affecting their interest under the Plan, and the Committee will designate another person to exercise such authority.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, after a Change in Control, neither the Committee nor the Board nor any other person or entity shall have any discretionary authority in the administration of the Plan, and any court or tribunal that adjudicates any dispute, controversy or claim in connection with any Severance Benefits under this Plan will apply a de novo standard of
1

Exhibit 10.1
https://cdn.kscope.io/dda320a394fe979bfc89c8c516954889-capturea.jpg

review to any determinations made by the Committee or Board following such Change in Control. Such de novo standard shall apply notwithstanding the grant of full discretion hereunder to the Committee, Board, or any person or entity or characterization of any decision by the Committee, Board, or by such person or entity as final, binding or conclusive on any party.

4.Participation

Eligibility under the Plan is limited to Company executive employees specified herein and such other key employees as may be designated by the Committee from time to time. In order to become Participant, the executive or key employee must enter into a written Participation Agreement with the Company.

5.Severance Benefits

(a)Before a Change in Control. If a Participants employment with the Company is terminated after the Effective Date and before a Change in Control either by the Company for reasons other than Cause, death, or Disability, or by the Participant for Good Reason, then the Participant will be entitled to receive their Accrued Benefits and, subject to the Participant’s satisfaction of the requirements of Section 6(a) (regarding waiver and release of claims) and Section 6(b) (regarding restrictive covenants), the Company shall provide the Participant with the following Severance Benefits:

i.payment of the Cash Severance specified in this Section 5(a) (i), which amount shall be paid in installments in accordance with the Companys normal payroll schedule over the Severance Payment Period beginning no later than the first regular payroll period following the expiration of any period during which a Participant may revoke the waiver and release of claims executed pursuant to Section 6(a), so long as that waiver and release becomes effective no later than sixty ( 60) days after the Participant’s termination of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the period during which a Participant has discretion to execute or revoke the waiver and release of claims straddles two taxable years of the Participant, then the Company shall make the payment in the second of such taxable years, regardless of which taxable year the Participant actually delivers the executed waiver and release to the Company:

(A) Tier 1 Executive: an amount equal to 2.0 times the sum of Base Salary plus Target Bonus;

(B) Tier 2 Executive: an amount equal to 1.0 times the sum of Base Salary plus Target Bonus; and

(C) Tier 3 Executive: an amount equal to 0.5 times the sum of Base Salary plus Target Bonus.

ii.a pro-rated Target Bonus for the Company’s fiscal year in which the termination occurs, pro-rated based on the number of full and partial calendar months during such year prior to the date of termination of employment, which amount shall be paid at the time at which bonuses are paid to actively employed executives for such fiscal year;

iii.with respect to equity awards outstanding on the effective date of termination of employment:

(A)Tier 1 and Tier 2 Executives. (I) all outstanding equity awards granted by the Company prior to the Effective Date to the terminated Tier 1 Executive or Tier 2 Executive, as applicable, shall become fully vested and exercisable for a period of two (2) years following the effective date of such termination or until the option expiration date, if earlier; and (II) all equity awards, if any, granted by the Company to the terminated Tier 1 Executive or Tier 2 Executive, as applicable, after the Effective Date, (x) to the extent vesting of such equity award is subject to vesting based on service, shall be accelerated on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the number of awards that would have vested on the next scheduled vesting date following the effective date on which the affected Participant’s employment terminates by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full and partial months (rounded up) that the Participant was employed since the last vesting date (or date of grant of an award if there is no prior vesting date), and the denominator of which is the number of months in the period beginning on the last vesting date (or date of grant if there is no prior vesting date) and ending on the next vesting date, and (y) to the extent such equity award is a stock option or stock appreciation right, shall be exercisable for a period of nine (9) months following the effective date of such termination or until the option expiration date, if earlier.

(B)Tier 3 Executives: All equity awards, if any, granted by the Company to the terminated Tier 3 Executive after the Effective Date, (x) to the extent vesting of such equity award is subject to vesting based on service, shall be accelerated on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the number of awards that would have vested on the next scheduled vesting date following the effective date on which the affected Participant’s employment terminates by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full and partial months (rounded up) that the Participant was employed since the last vesting gate (or date of grant of an award if there is no prior vesting date), and the denominator of which is the number of months in the period beginning on the last vesting date (or date of grant if there is no prior vesting date) and ending on the next vesting date, and (y) to the extent such equity award is a stock option or stock appreciation right, shall be exercisable for a period of nine (9) months following the effective date of such termination or until the option expiration date, if earlier;

iv.Health Benefit Continuation; and

v.Outplacement Assistance.

(b)Termination Less Than Six Months Before a Change in Control. If a Participant’s employment is terminated after the Effective Date either by the Company for reasons other than Cause, death, or Disability, or by the Participant for Good Reason, the Participant begins to receive severance in accordance with Section 5(a), and a Change in Control occurs within six (6) months after the effective date of such termination of employment, then (i) no further payments shall be made pursuant to Sections 5(a)(i) and 5(a)(ii), and the Participant shall be entitled to receive a cash payment upon such Change in Control (or such later date as the release becomes effective as provided in Section 6 (a)) equal to the amount (if any) by which (A) the sum of the Cash Severance determined in accordance with Section 5(c)(i) plus the pro-rated Target Bonus
3

Exhibit 10.1
https://cdn.kscope.io/dda320a394fe979bfc89c8c516954889-capturea.jpg

determined in accordance with Section 5(c)(ii), exceeds (B) the amount of any Cash Severance already paid to the Participant under Section 5(a)(i) and the amount of any pro-rated bonus already paid to the Participant under Section 5(a)(ii) for the Company’s fiscal year in which the termination occurs based on actual performance, and (ii) all outstanding equity awards granted by the Company to such Participant shall become fully vested upon such Change in Control, and to the extent such equity award is a stock option or stock appreciation right which is not cashed out upon the Change in Control, shall be exercisable for a period for a period of two (2) years following the effective date of such termination or until the option expiration date, if earlier If a Change in Control occurs more than six (6) months after the effective date of a Participant’s termination of employment, all payments specified by Section 5(a) will continue to be paid as scheduled.

(c)After a Change in Control. If a Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated within 24 months after a Change in Control either by the Company for reasons other than Cause, death, or Disability, or by the Participant for Good Reason, then the Participant will be entitled to receive their Accrued Benefits and, subject to the Participant’s satisfaction of the requirements of Section 6(a) (regarding waiver and release of claims) and Section 6(b) (regarding restrictive covenants), the Company shall provide the Participant with the following Severance Benefits in lieu of those provided under Section 5(a):

vi.payment of the Cash Severance specified in this Section 5(c)(i), which amount shall be paid in a lump sum cash amount no later than three (3) business days following the expiration of any period during which a Participant may revoke the waiver and release of claims executed pursuant to Section 6(a), so long as that waiver and release becomes effective no later than sixty (60) days after the Participant’s termination of employment (or the Change in Control Date, for a Participant whose termination of employment is deemed to occur on the Change in Control Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the period during which a Participant has discretion to execute or revoke the waiver and release of claims straddles two taxable years of the Participant, then the Company shall make the payment in the second of such taxable years, regardless of which taxable year the Participant actually delivers the executed waiver and release to the Company:

(A) Tier 1 Executive: an amount equal to 2.0 times the sum of Base Salary plus Target Bonus;
(B) Tier 2 Executive· an amount 1.0 times the sum of Base Salary plus Target Bonus; and
(C) Tier 3 Executive · an amount equal to 0.5 times the sum of Base Salary plus Target Bonus.

vii.a pro-rated Target Bonus for the Company’s fiscal year in which the termination occurs, pro-rated based on the number of full and partial calendar months during such year prior to the date of termination of employment, which amount shall be paid at the time and subject to the same conditions as the Cash Severance;

viii.with respect to equity awards outstanding on the effective date of termination of employment:
4

Exhibit 10.1
https://cdn.kscope.io/dda320a394fe979bfc89c8c516954889-capturea.jpg


Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 Executives : (1) all outstanding equity awards granted by the Company to the terminated Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3 Executive, as applicable, shall become fully vested, and to the extent such equity award is a stock option or stock appreciation right which is not cashed out upon the Change in Control, shall be exercisable for a period of two (2) years following the effective date of such termination or until the option expiration date, if earlier;


(ii)Health Benefit Continuation; and

(iii)Outplacement Assistance.

(d)Form of Severance under Existing Agreement. Participants who are covered by an existing employment or severance agreement with the Company on the Effective Date agree that their existing rights under that agreement are terminated and replaced with the provisions of this Plan; provided, however, that for the duration of the original remaining term of the employment or severance agreement only, the timing and form of severance (i.e., lump sum or installments) in the employment or severance agreement shall supersede the timing and form of payment provisions in this Section 5 and control the timing and form of payment of the Cash Severance. The Participation Agreement shall provide that, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Participant and the Company, any defined terms in any outstanding equity awards held by the Participant as of the Effective Date shall be superseded and replaced in their entirety by the defined terms in Section 10 of this Plan (including, but not limited to, “Cause," “Change of Control," “Disability” and “Good Reason”).

(e)Employment with Successor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under the Plan, no Severance Benefits shall be paid to a Tier 2 or Tier 3 Executive (but this sentence shall not apply to a Tier 1 Executive) who is offered comparable employment by an entity that purchases a unit or asset of the Company or, following a Change in Control, by a successor to the Company. “Comparable employment” is determined in good faith based on the facts and circumstances in each case, but means employment with duties, responsibilities, Base Salary, annual short-term incentive opportunity, annual long-term incentive opportunity and location that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the Participant’s prior employment with the Company. A Participant who accepts comparable employment with a successor to the Company following a Change in Control remains entitled to receive Severance Benefits if the Participant’s employment is terminated as specified under Section 5(c) (including for purposes of clarity by the Participant for Good Reason).

(f)Release of Claims and Restrictive Covenants. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Severance Benefits are subject to and contingent on the Participant’s satisfaction of the requirements of Section 6(a) (regarding waiver and release of claims) and Section 6(b) (regarding restrictive covenants).

(g)Code Section 280G Cutback. If the Severance Benefits provided by this Plan or other benefits otherwise payable to the Participant (a) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Code section 280G, and (b) but for this Section 5(g), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Code section 4999 (“Excise Tax”), then such Severance Benefits or other benefits shall be
5

Exhibit 10.1
https://cdn.kscope.io/dda320a394fe979bfc89c8c516954889-capturea.jpg

payable either in full or in such lesser amount which would result in no portion of such Severance Benefits or other benefits being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by the Participant, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of such Severance Benefits and other benefits under this Plan or otherwise, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Severance Benefits or other benefits may be taxable under Code section 4999. Any reduction in the Severance Benefits and other benefits required by this Section 5(g) shall be made in the following order: (i) reduction of cash payments; (ii) reduction of accelerated vesting of equity awards other than stock options; (iii) reduction of accelerated vesting of stock options; and (iv) reduction of other benefits paid or provided to the Participant. The calculations in this Section 5(g) will be performed by the professional firm engaged by the Company for general tax purposes as of the day prior to the date of the Change in Control. If the tax firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the acquiring company, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized tax firm to make the determinations required by this Section 5(g). The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such firm required to be made by this Section 5(g ). The Company and the Participant shall furnish such tax firm such information and documents as the tax firm may reasonably request in order to make its required determination. The tax firm will provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and the Participant as soon as practicable following its engagement. Any good faith determinations of the tax firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and the Participant. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Code section 409A, 280G or 4999 at the time of the initial determination by the professional tax firm described in this Section 5( g), it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or other agency will claim that an Excise Tax greater than that amount, if any, determined by such professional firm for the purposes of Section 5(g) is due (the “Additional Excise Tax”). The Participant shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the IRS or other agency that, if successful, would require payment of Additional Excise Tax. The Participant and the Company shall each reasonably cooperate with the other in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings concerning the existence or amount of liability for Excise Tax with respect to payments made or due to the Participant. The Company shall pay all reasonable fees, expenses and penalties of the Participant relating to a claim by the IRS or other agency. In the event it is finally determined that a further reduction would have been required under this Section 5(g) to place the Participant in a better after-tax position, the Participant shall repay the Company such amount within thirty ( 30) days thereof in order to effect such result.

6.Terms and Conditions of Participation

(b)Restrictive Covenants. By executing the Participation Agreement, the Participant agrees to abide by the following restrictive covenants as consideration for the Severance Benefits provided under Section 5 and acknowledges that the provisions and covenants contained in this Section 6(b) are ancillary and material to the terms of the Plan and that the limitations contained herein are reasonable in geographic and temporal scope and do not impose a greater restriction or restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill and other legitimate business interests of the Company. The Participant also acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 6(b) do not adversely affect the Participant’s ability to earn a living in any capacity that does not violate the covenants contained herein. The Company acknowledges and agrees that before Participant shall be determined to have breached any provision or covenant contained in this Section 6(b), the Participant shall have been given notice of any such alleged breach (including the grounds for the Company’s determination in reasonable detail) and been given forty-five (45) days after receipt of such notice of such breach to (1) cure or remedy any such breach that is reasonably susceptible of cure or remedy or (2) provide the Company with support that Participant did not breach this Section 6(b). During this forty-five (45) day notice period, a Tier 1 Executive will be afforded the opportunity to make a presentation to the Board regarding the matters referred to in the Company’s notice.

The Participant shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company and all of its subsidiaries, partnerships, joint ventures, limited liability companies, and other affiliates (collectively, the” Company Group”), all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company Group and its businesses (including, without limitation, any proprietary and not publicly available information concerning any processes, methods, trade secrets, intellectual property, research secret data, costs, names of users or purchasers of their respective products or services, business methods, operating or manufacturing procedures, or programs or methods of promotion and sale) that the Participant has obtained or obtains during the Participant’s employment by the Company Group and that is not public knowledge (other than as a result of the Participant’s violation of this Section 6(b)(i)) (“Confidential Information”). The Participant shall not communicate, divulge or disseminate Confidential Information at any time during or after the Participant’s employment and/or service as a consultant with the Company Group, except with prior written consent of a corporate officer of Company, or as otherwise required by law or legal process. All records, files, memoranda, reports, customer lists, drawings, plans, documents and the like that the Participant uses, prepares or comes into contact with during the course of the Participant’s employment shall remain the sole property of the Company and/or the Company Group, as applicable, and shall be turned over to the applicable Company Group company upon termination of the Participant’s employment.

x.Non-Recruitment of Company Group Employees, Etc. During the Participant’s employment with the Company Group and for the Restricted Period, the Participant shall not (I) solicit or participate in the solicitation of any person who was employed by the Company Group at any time during the six-month period prior to the Participant’s termination of employment to leave the employ of Company Group; or (2) on behalf of the Participant or any other person, hire, employ, or engage any such person, provided that these restrictions shall only apply so long as the person remains employed by the
7

Exhibit 10.1

Company Group and for six months after they cease to be employed by the Company Group. The Participant further agrees that, during the Participant’s employment with the Company Group and for the Restricted Period, if an employee of the Company Group contacts the Participant about prospective employment, the Participant will inform that employee that the Participant cannot discuss the matter further without informing the Company Group.

xi.Non-Solicitation of Business The Participant acknowledges and agrees that Company’s customers and any information regarding Companys customers is confidential and constitutes trade secrets. In recognition of the confidential and trade secret nature of information regarding Companys customers, the Participant agrees that during the Restricted Period, the Participant shall not (either directly or indirectly or as an officer, agent, employee, partner or director of any other company, partnership or entity) solicit on behalf of any Competitor of the Company Group the business of (1) any customer of the Company Group during the time of the Participant’s employment or as of the date of Participant’s termination of employment, or (2) any potential customer of the Company Group which the Participant knew to be an identified, prospective purchaser of services or products of the Company Group as of the date of Participant’s termination of employment.

xii.Employment by Competitor During the Restricted Period, the Participant shall not invest in (other than in a publicly-traded company with a maximum investment of no more than one percent (1%) of outstanding shares), counsel, advise, or be otherwise engaged or employed by, any Competitor of the Company Group.

xiii.No Disparagement.

(1)The Participant and the Company shall at all times refrain from taking actions or making statements, written or oral, that denigrate, disparage or defame the goodwill or reputation of the Participant or the Company Group, as the case may be, or any of its trustees, officers, security holders, partners, agents or former or current employees and directors. The Participant further agrees not to make any negative statement to third parties relating to the Participant’s employment or any aspect of the businesses of Company Group and not to make any statements to third parties about the circumstances of the termination of the Participant’s employment or about the Company Group or its trustees, directors, officer, security holders, partners, agents or former or current employees and directors, except as may be required by a court or government body.

(2)The Participant further agrees that, following termination of employment for any reason, the Participant shall assist and cooperate with the Company with regard to any matter or project in which the Participant was involved during the Participant’s employment with the Company, including but not limited to any litigation that may be pending or arise after such termination of employment (other than any litigation in which the Company asserts a claim against Participant or alleges that Participant breached one of the restrictive covenants in this Section 6(b)). The Company shall not unreasonably request such cooperation of the Participant and shall cooperate with the Participant in scheduling any assistance by the Participant taking into account the Participant’s business and personal affairs and shall compensate the Participant for any lost wages and/or expenses associated with such cooperation and assistance.

xiv.Inventions. All plans, discoveries and improvements, whether patentable or unpatentable, made or devised by the Participant, whether alone or jointly with others, from the date of the Participant’s initial employment by the Company and continuing until the end of any period during which the Participant is employed by the Company Group, relating or pertaining in any way to the Participant’s employment with or the business of the Company Group (each an “Invention”), shall be promptly disclosed in writing to the Secretary of the Board and are hereby transferred to and shall redound to the benefit of the Company and shall become and remain its sole and exclusive property. The Participant agrees to execute any assignment to the Company or its nominee, of the Participant’s entire right, title and interest in and to any Invention and to execute any other instruments and documents requisite or desirable in applying for and obtaining patents, trademarks or copyrights, at the expense of the Company, with respect thereto in the United States and in all foreign countries that may be required by the Company. The Participant further agrees to cooperate, while employed and thereafter, to the extent and in the manner required by the Company, in the prosecution or defense of any patent or copyright claims or any litigation, or other proceeding involving any trade secrets, processes, discoveries or improvements covered by this covenant, but all necessary expenses thereof shall be paid by the Company. The Participant agrees to disclose promptly in writing to Company all innovations (including Inventions) conceived, reduced to practice, created, derived, developed, or made by the Participant during the term of employment and for three months thereafter, whether or not the Participant believes such innovations are subject to this Section 6(b)(vi), to permit a determination by Company as to whether or not the innovations should be the property of Company. Any such information will be received in confidence by Company.

xv.Acknowledgment and Enforcement. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that: (1) the purpose of the foregoing covenants is to protect the goodwill, trade secrets and other Confidential Information of the Company; (2) because of the nature of the business in which the Company Group is engaged and because of the nature of the Confidential Information to which the Participant has access, the Company would suffer irreparable harm and it would be impractical and excessively difficult to determine the actual damages of the Company Group in the event the Participant breached any of the covenants of this Section 6(b); and (3) remedies at law (such as monetary damages) for any breach of the Participant’s obligations under this Section 6(b) would be inadequate. The Participant therefore agrees and consents that (X) if the Participant commits any breach of a covenant under this Section 6(b) during the applicable period of restriction specified therein, all unpaid Severance Benefits will be immediately forfeited, and (Y) if the Participant commits any breach of a covenant under this Section 6(b) or threatens to commit any such breach at any time, the Company shall have the right (in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or that may be available to it) to temporary and permanent injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, without posting any bond or other security and without the necessity of proof of actual damage.

xvi.Similar Covenants in Other Agreements Unaffected. The Participant may be or become subject to covenants contained in other agreements (including but not limited to stock option and restricted stock unit agreements) which are similar to those contained in this
9

Exhibit 10.1
https://cdn.kscope.io/dda320a394fe979bfc89c8c516954889-capturea.jpg

Section 6(b). Further, a breach of the covenants contained in this Section 6(b) may have implications under the terms of such other agreements, including but not limited to forfeiture of equity awards and long-term cash compensation. The Participant acknowledges the foregoing and understands that the covenants contained in this Section 6(b) are in addition to, and not in substitution of, the similar covenants contained in any such other agreements.

(c)At-Will Employment. Each Participant is employed by the Company on an “at-will” basis, and nothing in this Plan shall give any Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company. A Participant shall have no rights under the Plan if the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company, or any successor, with Cause or by the Participant without Good Reason, or due to the Participant’s death or Disability.

(d)Non-duplication; No Impact on Benefits

Payments to a Participant under the Plan shall be in lieu of any severance or similar payments that otherwise might be payable under any Company plan, program, policy or agreement with the Company that provides Severance Benefits upon termination of employment.

Benefits payable under the Plan, whether paid in a lump sum or in periodic payments, will not increase or decrease the benefits otherwise available to a Participant under any company-sponsored retirement plan, welfare plan or any other employee benefit plan or program, unless otherwise expressly provided for in any particular plan or program.

Any Severance Benefits specified under the Plan shall be reduced by the amount of any payment required by the Company to the Participant (A) because of insufficient advance notice of employment loss as may be required by law; or (B) under applicable law because of the termination of employment.

7.Benefit Claims

(a)Initial Claim. Any claims concerning eligibility, participation, benefits or other aspects of the Plan must be submitted in writing and directed to the Committee within thirty (30) days after the communication of the determination that is the basis of the claim. Within thirty (30) days after receiving a claim, the Committee will (i) either accept or deny the claim completely or partially and (ii) notify the Participant of acceptance or denial of the claim. If a claim is partially or wholly denied, the Committee will provide a written denial to the Participant no later than ninety (90) days after receipt of the initial claim request. The written denial shall include specific reasons for the denial, specific references to the Plan provisions upon which the denial was based, a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Participant to perfect the claim, an explanation of why such material is necessary, and instructions on the Plan’s claim review procedure.

(b)Appeals. The Participant may request in writing to the Board a review of a denied claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of such denial. Such written request must contain an explanation as to why the Participant is seeking a review. For purposes of the review, the Participant has the right to (i) submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim for
10

Exhibit 10.1
https://cdn.kscope.io/dda320a394fe979bfc89c8c516954889-capturea.jpg

benefits; (ii) request, free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claim for benefits; and (iii) a review that takes into account all comments, documents, records, and other information the Participant submitted relating to the claim, regardless of whether the information was submitted or considered in the initial decision. A decision on such review will be rendered in writing within thirty ( 30) days of the Boards receipt of a request for review. A written notice affirming the denial of a claim will set forth the specific reasons for the decision and make specific reference to Plan provisions upon which the decision or appeal is based. In preparation for filing such a request for review, the Participant or the Participant’s authorized representative may review pertinent Plan documents, and as part of the written request for review, may submit issues and comments concerning the claim. No claim may be brought before or submitted to a court of law or other governmental entity unless and until the claims process under this Section 7 has been exhausted.

8.Recoupment

(a)Right of Recoupment. If at any time, the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, determines that any action or omission by the Participant constituted a violation of the restrictive covenants in Section 6(b) to the material detriment of the Company, then the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall be immediately terminated, and the Participant shall repay to the Company, upon notice to the Participant by the Company, up to 100% of the pre-tax amount paid to the Participant pursuant to this Plan. The Board or the Committee, as the case may be, shall determine the date of occurrence of such violation and the percentage of the pre-tax amount received pursuant to this Plan that must be repaid to the Company.

(b)Method of Recoupment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may enforce the recoupment of any or all amounts due under this Section 8 by withholding future payment of any Severance Benefits, seeking reimbursement of previously paid Severance Benefits, demanding direct cash payment, reducing any amount of compensation owed by the Company to the Participant, and/or such other means determined by the Board or Committee.

(c)Nonexclusive Remedy. The Company’s right of recoupment under this Section 8 is in addition to any remedy available to the Company with respect to any Participant, including, but not limited to, the initiation of civil or criminal proceedings and any right to repayment under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and any other applicable law.

9.General

(a)Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board or the Committee may amend or terminate the Plan in any respect (including any change to the Severance Benefits) only with two years notice to Participants; provided, however, that (i) any amendment or termination will not be effective if there is a Change in Control during the two-year notice period, and (ii) the Plan cannot be amended or terminated during the twenty-four (24) month period after a Change in Control. A Participant ceasing to be eligible for a benefit under the Plan before a Change in Control, as described in Section 4, is not an amendment or termination of the Plan.

11

Exhibit 10.1

(b)Funding. Benefits payable under the Plan will be paid only from the general assets of the Company. The Plan does not create any right to, or interest in, any specific assets of the Company.


(c)No Mitigation. The Participant shall not be obligated to seek other employment in mitigation of the amounts payable under any provision of the Plan, and the obtaining of such other employment shall not effect any reduction of the Company’s obligations to pay the Severance Benefits provided under the Plan (unless in violation of the restrictive covenants specified under Section 6(b)).

(d)Withholding. The Company may withhold from any payments made under the Plan all federal, state, local or other taxes required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling.

(e)Right to Offset. To the extent permitted by law, the Company may offset against any obligation to pay any portion of the severance benefit under the Plan any outstanding amount of whatever nature that the Participant then owes to the Company in the capacity as an employee. However, no amount of “deferred compensation(as defined under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(1), after giving effect to the exemptions in Treasury Regulation sections 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12)) that is payable to a Participant under the Plan may be used to offset any amount that the Participant then owes to the Company.

(f)Successors. All rights under the Plan are personal to the Participant and without the prior written consent of the Committee shall not be assignable by the Participant. The Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Participant’s legal representative. The Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns. Any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of Anterix shall be required to assume expressly and agree to perform the obligations set forth in the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to do so.

(g)Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of the State of Delaware or by United States federal law.

(h)Severability. If any provision of the Plan is declared illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of the terms of the Plan shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.

(i)Notices. Notices and all other communications provided for under the Plan shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by United States certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, to the Company’s corporate headquarters address, to the attention of the Committee, or to the Participant at the home address most recently communicated by the Participant to the Company in writing.

(j)409A Compliance.

The Plan is intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Code section 409A. The preceding provision, however, shall not be construed as a guarantee by the Company of any particular tax effect to a Participant under the Plan. The Company shall not be liable to a Participant for any payment made under the Plan, at the direction or with the consent of the Participant, which is determined to result in an additional tax, penalty or interest under Code section 409A, nor for reporting in good faith any payment made under the Plan as an amount includible in gross income under Code section 409A.

“Termination of employment,” or words of similar import, as used in this Plan means, for purposes of any payments under this Plan that are payments of deferred compensation subject to Code section 409A, the Participant’s “separation from service” as defined in Code section 409A. For purposes of Code section 409A, the right to a series of installment payments under this Plan shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

With respect to any reimbursement of expenses of, or any provision of in-kind benefits to, a Participant, as specified under this Plan: (1) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year, except for any medical reimbursement arrangement providing for the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Code section 105(b); (2) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (3) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

If a payment obligation under the Plan arises on account of a Participant’s termination of employment while a “specified employee” (as defined under Code section 409A and the regulations thereunder and determined in good faith by the Committee), any payment of deferred compensation(as defined under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(1), after giving effect to the exemptions in Treasury Regulation sections 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12)) shall be made within fifteen ( 15 ) days after the end of the six-month period beginning on the date of such termination of employment or, if earlier, within fifteen (15) days after appointment of the personal representative or executor of the Participant’s estate following the death of the Participant.

(k) Arbitration. The Company and the Participant agree to attempt to resolve any dispute between them quickly and fairly. Any dispute related to the Plan which remains unresolved shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration conducted within fifty ( 50) miles of the Company’s headquarters, pursuant to the then current rules of the American Arbitration Association with respect to employment disputes. The Company shall bear any and all costs of the arbitration process plus, if a Participant substantially prevails on all issues raised in an arbitration related to the Plan that is commenced following a Change in Control, any reasonable attorneysfees incurred by the Participant with regard to such arbitration.
