Partial Reinstatement of Base Salary Reduction
In November 2011, Huttig Building Products, Inc. (the “Company”), in connection with its cost containment initiatives in response to the prolonged decline in housing market activity, instituted a 10% reduction in the annual base salaries of certain employees, including each of the named executive officers.
At its meeting on September 24, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a partial reinstatement of said reduction by increasing the base salaries of each of the named executive officers by 5%, effective September 23, 2013. The salaries of the other affected employees have previously been increased, or are now being increased, by at least 5%. The base salary for each of the Company’s named executive officers, after the 5% increase, is as follows:
