Exhibit 10.12.2

 

CHASE CORPORATION

 

Long Term Incentive Plan

Award Design and Grant Process

Fiscal Year Ending August 31, 2010

 

Key Provisions

 

1.     There are three reward vehicles:  1) Performance-based restricted stock, 2) Time-vested restricted stock and 3) Stock Options.  The C+MDC will decide which will be used each year.  For FYE 2010 performance shares will be 100%.

 

2.     Time-vested restricted stock is fixed and not subject to performance measures and will vest 3 years after granted subject to grant date, pricing, and termination provisions listed below.

 

3.     Stock options will be fixed based on a Black-Sholes calculation, will vest over 3 years and be exercisable for 10 years.

 

4.     Performance shares will be in the form of restricted stock subject to performance and other criteria as follows.

 

·      Performance measures:  Target is earnings per share (EPS) based on current year’s budget determined by dividing net income by the number of diluted shares outstanding as of September 1, 2009 (the beginning of the fiscal year). Actual is net income for the measurement period divided by the number of diluted shares outstanding at the beginning of the fiscal year.

·      Performance measurement period:  September 1, 2009 through August 31, 2010

·      Vesting:  2 years after performance measurement period (August 31, 2012)

·      Grant date:  first day of measurement period

·      Stock price for award:  closing price for last trading day prior to grant date

·      Threshold:  the point at which an award is earned (90% of target).  Between threshold and target the award increases on a linear basis.

·      Stretch area:  performance in excess of target awarded at a higher rate (200% for 120% achievement) with a cap of 200%.  Between target and cap award increases on a linear basis.

 

Example:

 

Total opportunity is $50,000 at target; performance share opportunity is $50,000 at target

Stock price (8/31/2009) is $10.00

Threshold is 90% of target
