Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
Trustmark Corporation (Trustmark) held its annual shareholders' meeting (Annual Meeting) on April 28, 2015.  Four proposals were submitted to Trustmark’s shareholders, including a proposal to approve the Trustmark Corporation Amended and Restated Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan).  Trustmark’s shareholders approved the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan on April 28, 2015.

The Amended and Restated Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors, subject to shareholder approval, on January 27, 2015, based on the recommendation of the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee).  The Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, which became effective upon shareholder approval at the annual meeting, amends and restates the Trustmark Corporation 2005 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2005 Incentive Plan), which was originally approved by shareholders on May 10, 2005 and subsequently amended on May 11, 2010.  Outstanding awards granted under the 2005 Incentive Plan remain outstanding in accordance with their terms.

The Amended and Restated Incentive Plan amends the 2005 Incentive Plan in certain ways, including, but not limited to, the following:
 
reduces the maximum number of shares of Trustmark’s common stock issuable under the plan (since the 2005 Incentive Plan became effective on May 10, 2005) to 3,000,000 shares;
adds Community Bank Advisory Directors of Trustmark National Bank as potential participants;
updates the list of possible performance goals for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (Section 162(m)); and
adds provisions regarding clawback authority.
 
The purpose of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan is to promote the success of Trustmark and its subsidiaries by providing incentives to key associates and directors that will promote the identification of their personal interests with the long-term financial success of Trustmark and with growth in shareholder value, consistent with Trustmark’s risk profile. The Amended and Restated Incentive Plan is designed to provide flexibility to Trustmark in its ability to motivate, attract, and retain the services of key associates and directors upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of its operation is largely dependent.

The Amended and Restated Incentive Plan authorizes the granting of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, performance units, performance cash awards and stock appreciation rights and eliminates reload options as a potential award type.  Awards may be granted to key associates and to directors, including Community Bank Advisory Directors, of Trustmark and certain of its subsidiaries, as determined by the Committee, which has been appointed to administer the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan.

Subject to the right of Trustmark’s Board of Directors to amend or terminate the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan at any time, awards may be granted under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan until April 27, 2025, after which date no further awards may be granted. Any awards granted under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan that are outstanding on April 27, 2025 will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms.

Subject to adjustment in the event of certain changes in Trustmark’s capital structure, the maximum number of shares of Trustmark’s common stock that may be issued under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan is 3,000,000, which includes awards issued since the 2005 Incentive Plan became effective on May 10, 2005.  Shares of common stock related to awards (for which no dividends have been received) that terminate, expire, or lapse for any reason without the issuance of such shares and shares of common stock related to restricted stock awards (for which no dividends have been received) that are forfeited will not count against this maximum.


 
 

 

The Amended and Restated Incentive Plan increases the annual per-participant limits for each equity award type and establishes an annual per-participant limit for the new category of performance cash awards, as follows:
 
stock options and stock appreciation rights, disregarding any tandem stock appreciation rights – 100,000 shares in the aggregate;
restricted stock, stock awards, and restricted stock units – 100,000 shares in the aggregate;
performance units – $2 million (which may include the issuance of no more than 100,000 shares) in the aggregate; and
performance cash awards – $2 million in the aggregate. 
 
Subject to the terms of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, the Committee has, among other powers, the power to determine the key associates and directors to whom awards are made, the nature and extent of any such awards, the terms and conditions upon which awards may be made, exercised and modified, and to make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan.  The Committee has delegated authority to the Chief Executive Officer to grant limited equity awards under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, which are reviewed by the Committee.

Awards granted under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan may or may not qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m).  In approving the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, Trustmark’s shareholders also approved the performance goals which may be used, and the maximum benefit that may be paid to any participant, in connection with awards under the plan that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m).  The performance goals for specific performance-based compensation awards granted under the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan will be determined by the Committee.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed description of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan contained in Trustmark’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2015 and to the full text of the Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10-f, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
