ITEM 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On August 20, 2014, the Company’s Executive Vice President - Human Resources, pursuant to authority delegated to her by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors, approved Amendment 2014-1 to the Nordstrom Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”). Amendment 2014-1 amends Section 3.07 of the Plan to clarify that the definition of a “Year of Post-Normal Retirement Date Service” will apply to participants under the Plan who have not retired as of the execution date of Amendment 2014-1, and that any such Year of Post-Normal Retirement Date Service will begin on participant’s Normal Retirement Date (as defined in the Plan), rather than the first of the month following a participant’s Normal Retirement Date.
Also on August 20, 2014, the Committee approved Amendment 2014-2 to the Plan. Amendment 2014-2 adds a new section 3.01(d) to the Plan which provides for a monthly cap on the amount of the Retirement Benefit (as defined in the Plan) payable to a participant under the Plan. The Plan was closed to new entrants beginning in 2012.
Both Amendment 2014-1 and Amendment 2014-2 are immediately effective. The above summary of the material terms of the amendments is qualified in its entirety by reference to Amendment 2014-1 and Amendment 2014-2 which are filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and which are incorporated herein by reference.
