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

On March 18, 2014, the Human Resources Committee (“Committee”) of our Board of Directors (“Board”) adjusted the annual base salaries of certain of our named executive officers and set the terms of the bonus program for our fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 (our 2015 fiscal year), including the threshold, target and maximum award levels for each of our named executive officers participating in the bonus program for our 2015 fiscal year. These determinations were as follows:

 

     Annual
Base
     Bonus Program Threshold, Target and
Maximum Award Levels
 

Executive Officer Name and Title

   Salary      Threshold      Target      Maximum  

Christopher J. Munyan,

President and Chief Executive Officer

   $ 607,775       $ 97,244       $ 607,775       $ 1,215,550   

Vincent A. Paccapaniccia,

Vice President – Finance, and Chief Financial Officer

   $ 365,424       $ 46,774       $ 292,340       $ 584,680   

William G. Kiesling,

Vice President – Legal and Human Resources

   $ 356,884       $ 45,681       $ 285,507       $ 571,014   

The annual base salaries shown in the table above are effective commencing April 1, 2014. The performance period for the bonus program awards in the table above is our 2015 fiscal year. Each bonus program award has two components. The components of each award and the portion of the target amounts in the table above that may be paid under each component are as follows:

 

Executive

   EPS
component
    Discretionary
component
 

Christopher J. Munyan

     80     20

Vincent A. Paccapaniccia

     80     20

William G. Kiesling

     80     20

The EPS component was awarded under and is subject to the terms and conditions of our Management Incentive Program. The sole metric for determining whether, and the extent to which, the EPS component will be paid is our diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for our 2015 fiscal year. No amounts will be paid under the EPS component unless we attain EPS of not less than a minimum “threshold” level set by the Committee on March 18, 2014. If the minimum level is exceeded, the amount to be paid under the EPS component will depend on the extent to which the attained level of EPS exceeds the minimum level. The Committee also set the “target” and “maximum” EPS levels that must be reached in order for the EPS component to be paid at the target and maximum levels, respectively. For purposes of determining payouts under the EPS component, EPS will be adjusted to account for the occurrence of certain specified events. The amounts payable, if any, under the EPS component will not be determined until after the performance period is completed.

The extent to which the discretionary component is paid, if at all, will be determined by, and in the sole discretion of, the Committee.

On March 18, 2014, we and Mr. Farber, the Chairman of our Board, entered into an amendment to the employment agreement dated December 5, 2012 between us and Mr. Farber. Prior to being amended, the agreement would have expired on July 31, 2014, unless earlier terminated as provided in the agreement. The amendment extends the term of the agreement until July 31, 2015, unless earlier terminated as provided in the agreement. This description of the amendment is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of such amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
