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

On June 11, 2020, the stockholders of CECO Environmental Corp. (the “Company”) approved the CECO Environmental Corp. 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP provides employees of the Company and its subsidiaries with an opportunity to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“common stock”), of the Company through accumulated payroll deductions. All employees of the Company and subsidiaries or controlled entities (including executive officers) are eligible to participate in the ESPP, except for employees who have been employed less than six months or employees whose customary employment is twenty hours or less per week. Eligible employees may elect to participate in the ESPP by contributing a percentage of their after-tax compensation through payroll deductions. At the end of each offering period under the ESPP, the balance of a participant’s account will be used to purchase shares of common stock at a purchase price of 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the Offering Date (as defined in the ESPP) and the Purchase Date (as defined in the ESPP). The aggregate maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be purchased under the ESPP is 1,300,000 shares over the 10 year term of the ESPP, subject in general to adjustment in the event there is a reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split-up, or similar transaction with respect to the common stock. The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) may at any time and for any reason alter, amend, suspend or terminate the ESPP. The ESPP also qualifies certain common stock issued under the ESPP for special tax treatment under Section 423 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The description of the ESPP set forth above does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the ESPP, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.
