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

 

On May 31, 2015, Energy Recovery (the “Company) accepted the resignation of its Chief Sales Officer, Mr. David Barnes. The separation was originally reported in a Form 8-K filed on June 4, 2015. Mr. Barnes had previously been afforded the opportunity to either (i) voluntarily resign or be terminated for unsatisfactory performance; and (ii) execute a mutual release of claims. Subsequently, Mr. Barnes rejected the mutual release and rejected his resignation. Consequently, the Company is now reclassifying Mr. Barnes’ separation from the Company as an involuntary separation.
