Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On September 27, 2011, New Century Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), appointed retired U.S. Army General Dan K. McNeill to its board of directors and to the board of directors of its wholly owned subsidiary, New Century Bank.
Before retiring from the U.S. Army in 2008, General McNeill’s last assignment was as commanding officer of the forty-nation International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan. General McNeill is currently president of The Logistics Company, Inc., a Fayetteville, North Carolina-based defense contractor. He is also chair of the North Carolina Military Foundation and serves on the First Command Military Advisory Board.
At this time, the Company has not determined the committees of the board of directors to which General McNeill will be named. As a member of the board of directors, General McNeill will receive a cash fee for each board and committee meeting attended, along with a monthly cash retainer. He will be eligible to participate in the Company’s Directors’ Deferral Plan, under which individual directors may elect annually to defer receipt of all or a designated portion of their fees for the coming year. Fees deferred under the plan are used to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock by the administrator of the plan, with such deferred compensation disbursed in the future as specified by the director at the time of the deferral election. General McNeill will also be eligible to receive awards under the Company’s 2010 Omnibus Stock Ownership and Long-Term Incentive Plan. Awards under this plan may be issued in the form of stock options, restricted stock, long-term incentive compensation units, or stock appreciation rights.
On October 19, 2011, the Company issued a press release regarding General McNeill’s appointment to the board of directors. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
