Item 5.02.   Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(e) As previously reported, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Rochester Medical Corporation (the “Company”) approved a cash bonus management incentive plan for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010 (the “Plan”). The Company’s executive management personnel will be entitled to earn bonus incentive compensation under the Plan based upon the Company’s financial performance in fiscal 2010, including the achievement of sales and gross margin objectives. Such measures are deemed by the Board of Directors to be important measures of, among other things, the Company’s ability to generate value for shareholders. Minimum, target and maximum payout levels are set based upon the extent to which the specified performance measures are attained. A copy of the Plan was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 19, 2009.
On August 19, 2010, the Compensation Committee approved an amendment to the Plan, whereby the participation rate for incentive bonus compensation payable to James Carper, the Company’s Vice President of Marketing, as a percentage of his base salary was revised to increase his target payout level from 40% to 50% and his maximum payout level from 60% to 75% of base salary, subject to the achievement of the performance criteria. The change was made by the Committee in recognition of Mr. Carper’s contributions to the Company’s sales and marketing programs and his increased managerial responsibilities as head of the Company’s global marketing program and North American Acute Care sales team. Any incentive bonus compensation paid to Mr. Carper pursuant to the Plan will be prorated such that the increase will be effective for the fourth quarter only. No other changes were made to the Plan. A copy of the Plan, as amended, is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to, and incorporated by reference in, this report.
