Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On August 16, 2013, the Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Delta Natural Gas Company, Inc. awarded Performance Shares Awards to the Company's principal executive officer, principal financial officer and three other executive officers. The awards were made in accordance with the Company's Incentive Compensation Plan, approved by the shareholders on November 19, 2009 at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Public Service Commission of the Commonwealth of Kentucky issued an Order on February 8, 2010 which approved the Company issuing Shares under the Incentive Compensation Plan. The complete text of the Plan has been filed as Exhibit No. 4.1 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2010, and is incorporated herein by reference. See Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's 8-K dated August 20, 2010 for Summary Plan Information of the Incentive Compensation Plan.
The Performance Shares Awards, structured the same as Performance Shares Awards granted in previous years, will vest only if the performance objective of the awards is met. The performance objective of these awards is based on the Company's fiscal 2014 audited earnings per share as reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, before any cash bonuses or stock awards. Subject to further limitations described in the Incentive Compensation Plan and the Notice of Performance Shares Award, all Performance Shares paid shall be in the form of Restricted Stock, which shall vest in 1/3 increments each year beginning on August 31, 2014, and annually each August 31 thereafter until fully vested as long as the Recipient is an Employee throughout each such Restriction Period. The table below sets forth the range of Performance Shares that may be granted to the following executive officers and the value of those awards on the grant date.
