Item 5.02. |
|
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
Effective July 8, 2010, our board of directors increased its size from seven members to ten
members and appointed Dr. Jacques S. Gansler, Mr. Ronald W. Iverson, and Dr. Dov S. Zakheim to fill
the vacancies created by the increase in the size. Dr. Gansler will serve as a Class II director
with a term expiring in 2011, Mr. Iverson will serve as a Class III director with a term expiring
in 2012, and Dr. Zakheim will serve as a Class I director
with a term expiring in 2013.
As previously disclosed in our proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(Registration Statement No. 333-164012), we expect to enter into a Special Security Agreement, or
SSA, with the U.S. Department of Defense pertaining to our corporate governance and operations, and
that the SSA will require the appointment of directors with strong national security qualifications
and no prior relationship with us. The appointment of Dr. Gansler, Mr. Iverson, and Dr. Zakheim,
each of whom has strong national security qualifications and no prior
relationship with us or our
principal stockholders, is part of these previously disclosed arrangements to mitigate foreign
ownership, control, or influence that may be attributable to our PCB Combination (described in our
proxy statement/prospectus).
Dr. Gansler will serve on our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Mr. Iverson will
serve on our Compensation Committee, and Dr. Zakheim will serve on our Audit Committee. Since the
beginning of our last fiscal year, there have been no related party transactions between Dr.
Gansler, Mr. Iverson, or Dr. Zakheim and our company.
As further described under Item 8.01 hereof, in connection with their election to our board of
directors, we granted each of Dr. Gansler, Mr. Iverson, and Dr. Zakheim an option to purchase
20,000 shares of our common stock at a per share exercise price of $9.54 and restricted stock units
with respect to 7,575 shares of our common stock. We are also entering into an indemnification
agreement with each new director in the form previously filed as Exhibit 10.15 to our Current
Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 2, 2010.
On July 8, 2010, we issued a press release announcing the election of Dr. Gansler, Mr.
Iverson, and Dr. Zakheim to our board of directors. A copy of this press release is attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 5.02.
Effective July 8, 2010, our board of directors also approved changes to our director
compensation program. Based on relevant compensation survey data and discussions with our
third-party compensation consultant, Mercer (USA) Inc., our compensation committee recommended to
our board of directors certain adjustments to our director compensation program to better target
the market median for director compensation. The changes made July 8, 2010 are part of our boards
overall plan to adjust director compensation levels over a two-year period to approximate the
50th percentile of our companys new peer group.
Members of our board of directors who are also employees are not separately compensated for
their services as directors. Our non-employee directors will now receive the following
compensation: an annual cash retainer of $50,000, an annual cash retainer of $4,000 for each board
committee of which he is a member, and reimbursement of expenses relating to board and board
committee meetings. In addition, the chairman of the board will receive an annual cash retainer of
$50,000, and the chairmen of our various board committees will receive annual cash retainers as
follows: $13,000 to our audit committee chairman, $10,000 to our compensation committee chairman,
and $8,000 to our nominating and corporate governance committee chairman.

Upon initial election, each non-employee director receives an option to purchase 20,000 shares
of our common stock. The options provided to the non-employee directors expire on the tenth
anniversary of the grant date and vest over a four-year period. Effective July 8, 2010, each of our eight
non-employee directors received restricted stock units for 7,575 shares of common stock,
representing a value of $75,000 based on the 6-month trailing average closing price ($9.90) of our
common stock as of the July 8, 2010 grant date. In the future, at each annual meeting of
stockholders, each non-employee director will receive restricted stock units having a fair value on
the award date of $75,000 based upon the average closing price of our common stock over the
six-month period preceding the grant date. The restricted stock units awarded to the non-employee
directors vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date and delivery of the underlying
shares of common stock is deferred until retirement from the board of directors.
