Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Effective April 6, 2015, the Board of Directors of UCP, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Timothy Baker Chief Account Officer (“CAO”) of the Company. In this role, Mr. Baker will serve as the Company’s principal accounting officer.
Mr. Baker, age 45, has served as the Company’s Corporate Controller since November 2014. Mr. Baker has more than 20 years of accounting and finance experience during his career. Prior to joining the Company, he served as Senior Vice President and Controller for NTS Development Company from 2000 to 2014. His experience also includes financial leadership positions at Service Merchandise and John-Kenyon American Eye Institute. He started his career as an accountant, which included positions at Deloitte & Touche LLP. He is a graduate of University of Louisville and a certified public accountant.
The Company and Mr. Baker will enter into an indemnification agreement in substantially the same form as the Company has entered into with its existing executive officers. Mr. Baker was appointed CAO in light of his satisfactory performance of his duties since joining the Company in November 2014 and the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Mr. Baker has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
In connection with his appointment as CAO, Mr. Baker will receive an option to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock from the Company which has a value equal to his annual base salary of $250,000 under the Company’s 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The option will generally be consistent in all material respects with options that the Company has previously granted its executive officers and will vest over three years.
In connection with the appointment of Mr. Baker, effective April 6, 2015, William J. La Herran, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company, ceased serving as the principal accounting officer of the Company. Mr. La Herran will remain the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company.
The Company issued a press release on April 10, 2015, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference, announcing the appointment of Mr. Baker as CAO of the Company.
