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

On October 5, 2011, in connection with its annual equity grants to employees, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Robbins & Myers, Inc. (the “Company”) granted Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) to certain of the Company’s executive officers under the Robbins & Myers, Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan as Amended (the “2004 Plan”). The grants were special, one-time grants intended to recognize performance during fiscal 2011. Each RSU represents the right to receive one common share of the Company and vests on the third anniversary of the date of grant provided that the employee remains in service with the Company until that date. The vested RSUs are converted into common shares upon the earlier of three years after the date of grant, the employee’s termination of service with the Company, or a change of control of the Company. The Company’s executive officers received the following special RSU awards:

Peter C. Wallace, President and Chief Executive Officer – 2,740 RSUs

Christopher M. Hix, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer – 1,370 RSUs

Saeid Rahimian, Senior Vice President and President, Energy Services – 1,370 RSUs

The Compensation Committee also approved a form of Restricted Share Unit Award Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report.

On October 6, 2011, in connection with its annual equity grants to employees, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company granted performance shares to certain of the Company’s executive officers under the Company’s Fiscal 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan, a subplan under the Company’s 2004 Plan. Historically, the Company has granted performance shares with a performance period of one year followed by a service period of two years. The performance shares granted on October 6, 2011 were revised to include three one-year performance periods. One-third of the award is allocated to each of fiscal 2012, fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2014. The performance shares are earned based on the Company’s performance during each of the three fiscal years and are paid out together with dividend equivalents if the employee remains employed through August 31, 2014. The Company’s executive officers received the following performance share awards:

Peter C. Wallace, President and Chief Executive Officer – 10,440 Performance Shares

Christopher M. Hix, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer – 2,930 Performance Shares

Saeid Rahimian, Senior Vice President and President, Energy Services – 3,080 Performance Shares

Jeffrey L. Halsey, Vice President – Human Resources – 1,450 Performance Shares

Kevin J. Brown, Controller – 760 Performance Shares

The Compensation Committee approved two forms of Performance Share Award Agreements, which are included as Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3 to this Report.
