USBC · USBC, Inc.

Ronald P. Erickson's departure from key leadership roles at USBC, Inc. aligns directly with the completed divestiture of the legacy non-invasive sensor technology business on March 27, 2026, via a Stock Purchase Agreement involving the Company's subsidiary Particle, Inc. and a buyer entity. The amicable exit, with no reported disagreements, underscores a clean transition post-sale. The Separation Agreement, executed April 9, 2026, delivers continuity through substantial severance—matching his $375,000 base salary paid monthly over 12 months—contingent on release of claims, non-disparagement, and compliance. Retention of Employment Agreement covenants ensures ongoing confidentiality and cooperation. Additionally, 167,500 restricted shares from an August 2025 grant fully vested upon separation, fulfilling acceleration triggers linked to the divestiture, providing Mr. Erickson with immediate equity value without further service requirements. Investors should note the Separation Agreement's full terms will appear in the upcoming 10-Q for Q1 2026.
