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

 

On November 18, 2014, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Dynamic Materials Corporation (the “Company”) and the Compensation Committee of the Board adopted Dynamic Materials Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).   The Plan amends and replaces the Dynamic Materials Corporation 2012 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan.  The Plan is designed to provide a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company, as selected by the committee appointed by the Board to administer the Plan (the “Plan Committee”), and the Company’s directors with supplemental retirement income benefits through the elective deferral of salary, bonus and equity incentive compensation.

 

Each participant under the Plan who chooses to participate in any calendar year will be permitted to defer up to 100% of his or her annual base salary, annual bonus and equity incentive compensation for that calendar year.  All participants’ accounts under the Plan will be fully vested and nonforfeitable at all times.  Amounts deferred under the Plan will be credited to bookkeeping accounts maintained by the Company for each participant and will be adjusted to reflect deemed earnings or losses based on the hypothetical investment options selected by the participant. Participants in the Plan will receive distributions following termination, death or disability, or upon a change in control (as disability and change in control are defined in the Plan). Distributions will generally be made in the form of one lump sum payment, except that participants may elect to have distributions made in installments.

 

The Plan Committee reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no such action shall affect a participant’s right to receive the full amount of his or her vested account balance.

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Dynamic Materials Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
