ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
On May 11, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of DXP Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with the employment agreement dated effective as of January 1, 2004, as amended, between the Company and David R. Little, elected to increase the annual base salary for David Little from $448,000 to $600,000, effective as of January 1, 2012.
On May 11, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of DXP Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company") amended an equity incentive program under which David R. Little can earn an award of up to $700,000 of common stock under the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan each year for three years. The amendment increased the value of the maximum annual award from $500,000 to $700,000
The shares will be awarded on March 31 of each year based upon the closing price on March 31. The value of each award will be determined based upon the growth in sales and net income for the preceding fiscal year. If sales and net income each increase by 20% or more for the preceding fiscal year, the value of the award will be $700,000. Growth of less than 10% in sales and net income will result in an award of zero. Growth of between 10% and 20% will result in an award between zero and $700,000. The first award under this amended three year program will be issued on March 31, 2013.
