Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On June 17, 2013, Torotel, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Restricted Stock Agreements (the “Agreements”), a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, with its principal executive officer, Dale H. Sizemore, Jr., and its principal financial officer, H. James Serrone for the grant of an aggregate total of 350,000 restricted shares (the “Shares”) of the Company's common stock. The Restricted Stock Agreements were entered into, pursuant to the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plans, which were filed as Exhibit 10.9 of Form 10-KSB on July 30, 2007, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. The Agreements were authorized by the Compensation and Nominating Committee (the “Committee”) and the Board of Directors of the Company on June 17, 2013. The Shares granted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Agreements contain restrictions that prohibit them from being sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of until the restrictions lapse. The restrictions will lapse on the fifth anniversary of the date of grant if during the five (5) year restriction period, (1) the Company's cumulative annual growth in earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") is at least 10% and (2) the Company's average return on capital employed ("ROCE") is at least 25%. The restrictions will also lapse, if prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of grant, (1) the grantee's employment with the Company is terminated by reason of disability, (2) the grantee dies, or (3) the Committee, in its sole discretion, terminates the restrictions. If the restrictions on the Shares have not lapsed by the fifth anniversary of the date of grant, the Shares will be forfeited to the Company. The following table lists the allocation of granted Shares to the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer of the Company.
