Grant of Awards to Executive Officers under the Partnership’s 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan
On November 10, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Sunoco GP (the “General Partner”), the general partner of Sunoco LP (the “Partnership”), granted awards of restricted phantom units (“Phantom Units”) under the Partnership’s 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to the executive officers of the General Partner in the amounts listed below.
Executive Officers & Title
Number of Phantom Units
Robert W. Owens
President and Chief Executive Officer
50,000
Mary E. Sullivan
Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer
15,000
Rocky B. Dewbre
Executive Vice President-Channel Operations
15,000
Each phantom unit represents the equivalent of one common unit representing a limited partner interest of the Partnership (a “Unit”). The awards of Phantom Units were granted in tandem with distribution equivalent rights (“DERs”), which entitle the grantee to receive, so long as the corresponding Phantom Unit has not either vested or been forfeited, an amount in cash equal to the distribution per Unit made by the Partnership on its outstanding Units. The awards of Phantom Units are subject to vesting based upon the grantee’s continuous service through the vesting date and such other terms as set forth in the applicable award agreement. Upon the vesting of each Phantom Unit, the Partnership will deliver to the grantee one Unit.
The foregoing description of the Phantom Unit awards under the Plan is not complete and is qualified by reference to the form of the Restricted Phantom Unit Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference into this item.
