Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensation Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Election of Director and Appointment of Officers
On May 9, 2011, Oceaneering International, Inc. (“Oceaneering”) announced that M. Kevin McEvoy was appointed by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) as President and Chief Executive Officer of Oceaneering following the retirement of T. Jay Collins from those positions. Mr. McEvoy, age 60, previously served as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Oceaneering. Mr. McEvoy was also elected by the Board as a Class II Director, with a term that is scheduled to expire at Oceaneering’s 2012 annual meeting of shareholders. Oceaneering previously announced in February 2011 the designation of Mr. McEvoy to succeed Mr. Collins as President and Chief Executive Officer. Oceaneering also announced the appointment by the Board of Marvin J. Migura, Oceaneering’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, to the position of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. A copy of the Press Release announcing these appointments and election by the Board is furnished as Exhibit 99.1. Changes to the compensation arrangements for Messrs. McEvoy and Migura as a result of these appointments are reflected in the table and information below.
Compensation of Officers
On May 6, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) approved increases in the annual base salary for the following executive officers who were named executive officers in Oceaneering’s proxy statement for its 2011 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Named Executive Officers”) to the following amounts, effective on May 6, 2011 for Messrs. McEvoy and Migura and July 1, 2011 for the others:

On May 6, 2011, the Committee approved grants of awards to Mr. Migura of 2,000 restricted stock units and 2,000 performance units under Oceaneering’s 2010 Incentive Plan. Those awards have substantially the same terms and conditions as the awards of restricted stock units and performance units to Mr. Migura approved by the Committee on February 25, 2011, as previously reported. The foregoing description of the award to Mr. Migura is intended to be only a summary and is qualified by reference to the complete agreements, which are attached as exhibits to this report and incorporated by reference into this Item.
Change of Control and Indemnification Agreements
On May 6, 2011, the Committee approved Oceaneering’s entering into indemnification agreements with three current executive officers who previously did not have indemnification agreements with Oceaneering and change of control agreements with four current executive officers who previously did not have change of control agreements with Oceaneering. These executive officers in each instance included Kevin F. Kerins.

 


Table of Contents

The form of indemnification agreement approved is in the same form as the previously disclosed indemnification agreements entered into with the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Kerins). The form of change of control agreement approved is in substantially the same form as the previously disclosed change of control agreement entered into in 2001, as amended, with the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Kerins), except as follows:
    the severance package provided for consists of an amount equal to two times the sum of 1) the executive’s highest annual rate of base salary during the then-current year or any of the three years preceding the year of termination, and 2) an amount equal to the target award the executive is eligible to receive under the then-current annual bonus plan;
 
    the recipient would receive benefits under all other plans in which he then participates, for two years; and
 
    the recipient would not be eligible to receive a tax gross-up amount for any payments made under the agreement that would cause the recipient to be liable for an excise tax should the payment be a “parachute payment,” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code and applicable Treasury Regulations.
The foregoing descriptions of the indemnification agreements and change of control agreements are intended to be only summaries and are qualified by reference to the complete agreements, which are attached as exhibits to this report and incorporated by reference into this Item.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On May 6, 2011, Oceaneering held its annual meeting of shareholders. The following actions were taken at the Annual Meeting, for which proxies were solicited pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended:

The shareholders have selected, on an advisory basis, that Oceaneering hold future advisory votes on the compensation of Oceaneering’s named executive officers every one year, and the voting results are set forth below:
                 
1 year   2 years   3 years   Abstentions   Broker-Non-Votes
