Item 5.02                      Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e)           Adoption of Pilgrim Bank Executive and Director Deferred Compensation Plan.  On June 1, 2015, Pilgrim Bank (the “Bank”), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Pilgrim Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”), adopted the Pilgrim Bank Executive and Director Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).  The purpose of the Plan is to provide current tax planning opportunities as well as supplemental funds for retirement for directors and certain key members of its management with deferred compensation.

The Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that allows for participants to voluntarily elect to defer a fixed percentage of their compensation, which shall be credited to a bookkeeping account established by the Bank on behalf of each participant.  Amounts credited to a participant’s account under the Plan will be credited annually with earnings based on the Five-Year Treasury Note (as reported by the United States Department of the Treasury), plus 100 basis points.  The participants are always 100% vested in their account balances under the Plan.

Each participant’s account balance will be distributed upon either: (i) the participant’s separation from service with the Bank or (ii) a date specified by the participant.  The form of distribution would be either: (i) a lump sum or (ii) equal monthly installments over a designated period as elected by the participant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the earlier of: (i) the participant’s death; (ii) the participant’s disability or (iii) a change in control of the Company or the Bank prior to the Participant’s separation from service or specified date election, the participant (or the participant’s beneficiary) shall be paid his or her account balance in a lump sum within 30 days thereafter.

The foregoing description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Plan that is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
