Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On January 25, 2017 the Board of Directors of Seneca Foods Corporation (the "Company") amended and restated the Company's Executive Profit Sharing Bonus Plan and the Company's Manager Profit Sharing Bonus Plan (each a "Plan" and collectively, the "Plans").
The performance criteria established under each Plan requires the Company's pre-tax profits adjusted to a FIFO basis for a fiscal year to equal or exceed a specific bonus target plus the aggregate bonus amounts calculated under the Plan. The bonus target under each Plan is expressed as a percentage of the consolidated net worth of the Company calculated on a FIFO basis. As amended, the bonus targets under the Executive Profit Sharing Bonus Plan were reduced to range from 5% to 15% and the bonus targets under the Manager Profit Sharing Bonus Plan were reduced to range from 5% to 12.5%. Additionally, each bonus target corresponds to a potential bonus payment calculated as a percentage of the employee's base salary earned during the fiscal year. As amended, the potential bonus payments under the Executive Profit Sharing Bonus Plan were reduced to range from 10% to 35% of base salary and the potential bonus payments under the Manager Profit Sharing Bonus Plan were reduced to range from 5% to 12.5% of base salary.
Each Plan was also amended to clarify that the Plan's Executive Committee or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, is permitted to make discretionary bonus payments in addition to any bonus payments calculated under the Plans.
The foregoing discussion is qualified in its entirety by the terms and provisions of the Company's Executive Profit Sharing Bonus Plan and the Company's Manager Profit Sharing Bonus Plan which are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K as set forth in Item 9.01 below, and are incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
