Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 19, 2015, Bernard Hueber, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Dynamic Materials Corporation (the “Company”), announced his intention to retire from the Board effective as of May 13, 2015, following the 2015 Company’s annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Hueber will therefore not stand for reelection to the Board at the next annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Hueber, 74, has served as a director of the Company from 2000 to 2005 and from 2006 until the present. He is currently the chairman of the Board’s Health, Safety, Security and Environment Committee and a member of the Board’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Mr. Hueber’s retirement was for personal reasons and not as a result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board.

In connection with Mr. Hueber’s announcement, the Board, as permitted by the Company’s bylaws, approved reducing the number of directors on the Board from nine to seven, effective following the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders.
