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

 

 

On November 19, 2009, at a special meeting of shareholders of Patrick Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), the shareholders of the Company, upon the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), approved the Patrick Industries, Inc. 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”).  The Board approved and adopted the 2009 Plan, subject to shareholder approval, on August 13, 2009 (the “Effective Date”).

 

The purposes of the 2009 Plan are to attract and retain highly competent persons as employees, directors, and consultants of the Company and its affiliates (“Service Providers”).  The 2009 Plan covers, among other things, administration of the 2009 Plan, participant eligibility, shares available under the 2009 Plan, the types of awards that may be granted, and performance criteria.  

 

The maximum number of shares available for delivery to Service Providers pursuant to awards granted under the 2009 Plan is 750,000, subject to adjustment as described in the 2009 plan, plus 264,502 shares that were available for future awards under the terms of the Patrick Industries, Inc. 1987 Stock Option Program, as amended and restated (the “Predecessor Plan”) as of October 19, 2009, less 255,000 shares issuable under the May 2009 stock option grant that were subject to shareholder approval of the 2009 Plan, plus shares that become available for future awards under the Predecessor Plan as a result of the subsequent forfeiture, lapse or expiration of awards granted pursuant to the Predecessor Plan. Since the 2009 Plan has been approved by shareholders, no future grants will be made under the Predecessor Plan.

 

The following types of awards may be granted under the 2009 Plan (which may be in lieu of other amounts owed to a participant), subject to such terms as the Compensation Committee of the Board may prescribe in an award agreement: stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance awards, and other awards. The 2009 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board and expire no later than August 13, 2019 or earlier if all shares available for issuance have been issued as fully vested shares.

 

The description of the 2009 Plan contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2009 Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
