Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
Camden National Corporation (the “Company”) identified an error in the reporting of the value and changes in value to the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) with respect to Gregory Dufour, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, for the years 2014, 2015 and 2016 in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 24, 2017. The column titled “Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” in the Summary Compensation Table on page 47 of the proxy statement should have reported the following for Mr. Dufour for 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively: $595,658, $596,720, and $554,427, and the column titled “Total” should have reported the following for Mr. Dufour for 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively: $1,485,816, $1,727,808 and $1,444,013. In addition, the present value of accumulated benefit for Mr. Dufour in the Pension Benefits Table on page 54 of the proxy statement should have been reported as $3,275,143.
The errors identified in the proxy statement were the result of an incorrect calculation of the accumulated benefit obligation under the SERP of which Mr. Dufour is a participant. The error did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as reported on its Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 7, 2017.
