Change in Directors or Principal Officers, Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security


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

On May 9, 2012, at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "2012 Annual Meeting"), the shareholders of MasTec, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"), approved the adoption of the MasTec, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan for Executive Officers (the "Executive AIP"), effective as of January 1, 2012. The board of directors of the Company (the "Board") adopted the Executive AIP on December 15, 2011, subject to shareholder approval. The purpose of the Executive AIP is to provide for the payment of annual bonuses to certain executive officers of the Company that are intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) and thus be deductible by the Company. The Executive AIP is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") which annually selects the executive officers of the Company and its affiliates who are eligible to receive awards thereunder and establishes the amount of the award opportunity for each selected executive officer that is payable if the applicable performance goal is achieved. The performance goal is based upon Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Executive AIP) and the maximum award earned in any calendar year by any participant under the Executive AIP may not exceed the lesser of two percent (2%) of the Company's Consolidated EBITDA or $5,000,000. The Compensation Committee retains "negative discretion" to reduce the award based upon the assessment of an individual's performance and the attainment of other Company performance objectives. Awards under the Executive AIP may be paid in the form of cash, restricted stock units or restricted stock granted under the 2003 Employee Stock Incentive Plan or any other plan adopted by the Company pursuant to which shares of the Company's common stock and/or restricted stock units may be granted or any combination of the foregoing. Awards earned will be paid between January 1 and March 15 of the year following the applicable performance year.

A more comprehensive description of the Executive AIP is set forth in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2012 (the "2012 Proxy Statement") under the caption "Proposal Three: Approval of MasTec, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan for Executive Officers - Summary of the Executive AIP", which description is incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Executive AIP is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Executive AIP, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which also was included as Annex A to the 2012 Proxy Statement.
