Approval of Equity Compensation Award Agreement and 2013 Grants
On March 1, 2013, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of U.S. Concrete, Inc.
(the "Company") approved the grant of restricted stock awards to certain Company
employees pursuant to the U.S. Concrete, Inc. 2010 Management Equity Incentive
Plan (the "MEIP"). The Board provided for these equity award grants by approving
a form restricted stock award agreement pursuant to the MEIP. The following
description of the form restricted stock award agreement is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the form restricted stock award agreement filed herein
as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated into this Current Report on Form 8-K by
reference.
The form restricted stock award agreement provides for the grant of restricted
stock awards, which are shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common
Stock") that are subject to certain vesting restrictions and a risk of
forfeiture. The form award agreement will divide the vesting restrictions
between time-based restrictions and performance-based restrictions, which will
be set at the discretion of the Company at the time of each individual grant.
Certain terminations of employment may also result in the immediate acceleration
of vesting, or in the immediate forfeiture of the award, which the Company may
also determine at the time that each individual grant is awarded. During the
applicable vesting period for the award, the holder shall have all the rights of
a stockholder of the Company, including dividend and voting rights, although
such rights will be forfeited if the award is forfeited. In consideration for
the receipt of the award, the holder will be required to agree to certain
non-solicitation and non-disclosure covenants that will be in effect during the
holder's employment and for a one year period following the end of the holder's
employment.
With respect to the restricted stock awards that the Board approved on March 1,
2013, the grant date will be April 1, 2013. The Company's named executive
officers that will receive restricted stock awards, and the number of restricted
stock awards that each individual will receive, are as follows: William M.
Brown, Niel L. Poulsen and Jeff L. Davis will each receive 10,000 shares of
restricted stock; Wallace H. Johnson will receive 5,000 shares of restricted
stock. As the number of shares approved for each of these four individuals'
award was based on a market closing price of $11.25 per share of Common Stock,
the number of shares for each award will be adjusted to the nearest 100 shares
of Common Stock on the grant date, based on the market closing price as of March
29, 2013, to reflect the value of the award as approved on March 1, 2013.
Sixty percent of the award will be subject to a time-based vesting schedule that
will vest in three equal installments on each year anniversary of the grant
date. Forty percent of the award will be subject to a time- and
performance-based vesting schedule, which is further divided into two separate
tranches (the "Performance Shares"). The first tranche of the Performance Shares
will become vested if the average daily volume-weighted average share price of
the Company's Common Stock over any period of twenty consecutive trading days
attains $18.00 per share within the three year period that begins on the grant
date of the award. The second tranche of the Performance Shares will become
vested if the average daily volume-weighted average share price of the Company's
Common Stock over any period of twenty consecutive trading days attains $22.00
per share within the three year period that begins on the grant date of the
award. Subject to any contrary treatment that may be found in any severance
agreement by and between the Company and the award holder, if the award holder's
employment with the Company (or any of the Company's subsidiaries) is terminated
during the vesting period for any reason (excluding the holder's death), all
shares of unvested restricted stock will be forfeited immediately. If the
holder's employment with the Company or any of the Company's subsidiaries is
terminated due to the holder's death, all unvested restricted stock awards will
become immediately 100% vested.
Approval of 2012 Bonus Awards
The Board approved the final payout amounts under the 2012 Annual Salaried Team
Member Incentive Plan (the "2012 Bonus Plan") on March 1, 2013. The 2012 Bonus
Plan is an annual incentive plan maintained for
all salaried employees, including our named executive officers. Seventy-five
percent of the bonus is based upon the Company's performance, and twenty-five
percent is based upon individual goals set for each individual at the beginning
of the performance period. The Company's named executive officers that will
receive a bonus pursuant to the 2012 Bonus Plan, and the amount that each
individual will receive, are as follows: William J. Sandbrook, $483,373; William
M. Brown, $40,197; Wallace H. Johnson, $43,590; Niel L. Poulsen, $83,712; and
Jeff L. Davis, $70,467. All payments from the 2012 Bonus Plan will be made in a
single cash payment on March 15, 2013.
Approval of Deferred Compensation Plan
Also on March 1, 2013, the Board approved a form of a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for certain key employees, including the Company's named executive officers. The Board authorized the officers of the Company to proceed with all necessary acts to finalize such a nonqualified deferred compensation plan, and the Company intends to file a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose all finalized terms and conditions of such a plan when the arrangement becomes effective.
