Exhibit 10.5
MANAGEMENT STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
_____________________________
First Amendment
______________________________
Effective as of May 7, 2015, Gibraltar Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx (the “Company”) established the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) to enable the Company to grant awards of equity based compensation to its employees and to non-employee directors, consultants and service providers.
In addition, effective as of May 7, 2015, the Company established the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2015 Management Stock Purchase Plan (as amended, the “Plan”) to set forth a uniform set of principals under which certain of the Company’s management employees and non-Employee Directors would be permitted to purchase Restricted Stock Units which the Company is authorized to issue pursuant to the Omnibus Plan.
The Plan provides that non-Employee Directors who elect defer their Retainer Fees will receive Matching Units equal in number to the number of Retainer Fee Deferral Units which are credited to the Account of a Non-Employee Director with respect to his or her deferral of Retainer Xxxx.
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has approved a change in the structure of the annual cash and equity based compensation which will be payable to non-Employee Directors effective for the 2016 calendar year and thereafter. In connection with the approval of the change in the structure of the annual cash and equity based compensation to be paid to non-Employee Directors, the Compensation Committee has determined that the non-Employee Directors will not have the right to defer their receipt of the portion of their Director Fees that is attributable to payments received by the non-employee Directors with respect to their membership on any Board Committee and payments received by the non-Employee Director in connection with their service as chairman of any Board Committee. In addition, the Compensation Committee has approved the elimination of the feature of the Plan which provides for the allocation of Matching Units to the Accounts of non-Employee Directors who elect to defer all or any portion of their Retainer Fees.
In addition to changes to the Plan which the Compensation Committee desires to make to implement the changes in the structure of the annual cash and equity based compensation payable to non-Employee Directors described above, the Compensation Committee desires to make a technical amendment to the Plan related to the application of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the Plan.
The Compensation Committee has approved the adoption of this amendment to effect the changes in the Plan described above.
In connection with the foregoing, the Company hereby adopts the following as the First Amendment to the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2015 Management Stock Purchase Plan effective as of January 1, 2016:
Exhibit 10.5
1. Capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.
2. Section 5.01 of the Plan is hereby amended by deleting the same in its entirety and substituting therefor a new Section 5.01 to read as follows:
“5.01 Director Xxx Xxxxxxxxx. Except to the extent that the terms of the compensation program which may, from time to time, be in effect with respect to the Company’s non-Employee Directors prohibit the deferral by the non-Employee Directors of all or any portion of their annual Director Xxxx, each Eligible Director shall be entitled to defer his receipt of all or any portion of his Director Fees by executing and delivering a Deferred Director Fee Election Form to the Committee within the time provided for by Section 5.02. An Xxxxxxxx Director’s election to defer any portion of his Director Xxxx shall become irrevocable upon his delivery to the Committee of his executed Deferred Director Fee Election Form.”
3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.01(h) of the Plan, Section 6.01 of the Plan or any other provision of the Plan providing for or contemplating the crediting or awarding of Matching Units to non-Employee Directors, effective January 1, 2016, the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2015 Management Stock Purchase Plan is hereby amended to the full extent deemed or construed to be necessary to provide that non-Employee Directors who elect to defer all or any portion of their Retainer Fee will not receive or be credited with any Matching Units with respect to the non-Employee Director’s deferral of his or her annual Retainer Fee.
4. In order to conform the provisions of the Plan to Internal Revenue Code Section 409A: (a) Article 8 of the Plan is hereby amended to the full extent deemed or construed to be necessary or advisable to eliminate any reference to the principle that, for purposes of determining the manner in which a Participant’s Account will be distributed, the amount of any account that the Participant had under the 2005 MSPP will be added to the amount of the Participant’s Account under the Plan, which amendment will have the effect that the amount of the account, if any, which a Participant has under the 2005 MSPP will not be taken into account for any purposes under this Plan; and (b) Section 8.04 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
8.04 Distribution of Small Amounts.
(a) Application of Participant’s Distribution Election. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, a Participant’s Account shall be distributed in the manner elected by the Participant, as provided in Section 8.03, regardless of the value of the Participant’s Account, unless the Committee is permitted to exercise its discretion, and does exercise its discretion, to distribute a portion of the Participant’s Account in a lump sum in accordance with Section 8.04(b) or (c).
(b) Immediate Distribution of Account Attributable to Participant Deferrals. In the event that the portion of a Participant’s Account attributable to compensation deferred at the election of the Participant under Article 4 or Article 5, when aggregated with the Participant’s interest in all agreements, methods, programs, or other arrangements with respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Xxxxx. Reg. §1.409A-1(c)(2)(i)(A), may be immediately distributed at the election of the Company in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(v), and the Committee determines in its discretion to require such immediate distribution, that portion of the Participant’s
Exhibit 10.5
Account shall be distributed in a lump sum within 30 days after the Committee has made such determination.
(c) Immediate Distribution of Account Attributable to Matching Contributions. In the event that the portion of a Participant’s Account attributable to matching allocations made by the Company under Article 6, when aggregated with the Participant’s interest in all agreements, methods, programs, or other arrangements with respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Xxxxx.

Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(v), and the Committee determines in its discretion to require such immediate distribution, that portion of the Participant’s Account shall be distributed in a lump sum within 30 days after the Committee has made such determination.

(j)If an Xxxxxxxx Director elects to defer his receipt of payment of any portion of his Director Xxxx, on each date that he is entitled to payment of the portion of his Director Fees which he has elected to defer, whether attributable to Retainer Fees, fees for attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, or any other fees, a portion (stated as a percentage) of the type of the Director Fees which he has elected to defer will not be paid to him and, instead, the Committee will credit an Account which will be established for his benefit with a number of Restricted Units equal to the number of Shares he could have purchased using the deferred portion of the type of the Director Fees which he has elected to defer at a price per Share equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share determined as
Exhibit 10.5
of the date Director Fee Deferral Units are to be allocated to the Director’s Account as provided for in the Deferred Director Fee Election Form.
(k)
(l)In addition to the Base Salary Deferral Units that are credited, as described in (d) above, to the Account of a Participant that is an Eligible Employee, at the same time that Base Salary Deferral Units are credited to such Eligible Employee’s Account, the Committee will credit the Eligible Employee’s Account with an additional number of Restricted Units (Matching Units) which have an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date that Base Salary Deferral Units are credited to the Account of the Eligible Employee, equal to the total amount of the Base Salary which was deferred by the Eligible Employee during the calendar quarter which ends on the date that Base Salary Deferral Units are credited to the Participant’s Account, multiplied by the Matching Percentage applicable to the Eligible Employee’s deferral of his Base Salary. Similarly, in addition to the Bonus Deferral Units that are credited, as described in (e) above, to the Account of a Participant that is an Eligible Employee, at the same time that Bonus Deferral Units are credited to such Eligible Employee’s Account, the Committee will credit the Eligible Employee’s Account with an additional number of Restricted Units (Matching Units) which have an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date that Bonus Deferral Units are credited to the Account of the Eligible Employee, equal to the total amount of the Bonus which was deferred by the Eligible Employee multiplied by the Eligible Employee’s Matching Percentage applicable to the Eligible Employee’s deferred Bonus.
(m)In addition to the Director Fee Deferral Units credited to the Account of a Participant that is an Eligible Director as described in (f) above, at the same time that Director Fee Deferral Units are credited to such Eligible Director’s Account, the Committee will credit the Eligible Director’s Account with an additional number of Matching Units equal to the number of Retainer Fee Deferral Units, if any, credited to the Eligible Director’s Account.
(n)The total value of the Restricted Units credited to the Account of a Participant that is an Eligible Employee will not be distributable to the Eligible Employee until the Eligible Employee’s employment is terminated or, if earlier, the date a Change in Control occurs. However, if the Eligible Employee’s employment is terminated before he has attained age sixty (60), the Matching Units credited to the Eligible Employee’s Account will be forfeited and the amount which is distributable to the Eligible Employee will only consist of an amount equal to the value of the Bonus Deferral Units and/or the Base Salary Deferral Units credited to the Eligible Employee’s Account.
(o)
(p)The total value of the Restricted Units credited to the Account of a Participant that is an Eligible Director will not be distributable to the Eligible Director until the date on which the Eligible Director’s status as a member of the Board of Directors is terminated or, if earlier, the date a Change in Control occurs. However, if the Eligible Director’s status as a member of the Board of Directors is terminated before he has attained age sixty (60), the Matching Units credited to the Eligible Director’s Account will be forfeited and the amount which is distributable to the Eligible Director will only consist of an amount equal to the value of the Director Fee Deferral Units credited to the Eligible Director’s Account.
(q)
(r)At the time a Participant becomes entitled to a distribution, the number of Restricted Units credited to the Participant’s Account (and not forfeited) will be converted (hypothetically and for accounting purposes only) to a cash amount equal to the total number of Restricted Units credited to the Participant’s Account (and not forfeited) multiplied by the Fair Market Value of one Share determined as of the date the Participant becomes entitled to a distribution. The Committee will separately identify the cash amount attributable to each Annual Base Salary Deferral and any related
Exhibit 10.5
Matching Units, each Annual Bonus Deferral and any related Matching Units and each Annual Director Fee Deferral and related Matching Units applicable to the Participant. However, as indicated in Sections 2.01(i) and (j) above, if the Participant’s employment or status as a member of the Board of Directors is terminated before he has attained at least age sixty (60), the total number of Restricted Units which are credited to the Participant’s Account will not include any Matching Units.
(s)
(t)With respect to amounts which a Participant is entitled to receive based on Base Salary and Bonus or Director Fees deferred by the Participant under this Plan, if: (i) the Participant is entitled to a distribution because his employment has been terminated or his status as a member of the Board of Directors has been terminated; and (ii) if the value of the Participant’s Account which is attributable to Base Salary and Bonus or Director Fees deferred by the Participant, when combined with the value of the Participant’s account, established under the terms of the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. Management Stock Purchase Plan (the “2005 MSPP”) as effective under the terms of the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, exceeds the applicable dollar amount provided for under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code (as adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury); then (iii)(A) the value of each Annual Base Salary Deferral and the value of any Matching Units attributable to such Annual Base Salary Deferral shall be distributed to the Eligible Employee in one lump sum payment, in five (5) substantially equal annual payments or in ten (10) substantially equal annual payments, whichever form of distribution has been elected by the Eligible Employee in the Base Salary Deferral Election Form which gave rise to the Annual Base Salary Deferral; (B) the value of each Annual Bonus Deferral and the value of any Matching Units attributable to such Annual Bonus Deferral shall be distributed to the Eligible Employee in one lump sum payment, in five (5) substantially equal annual payments or in ten (10) substantially equal annual payments, whichever form of distribution has been elected by the Eligible Employee in the Bonus Deferral Election Form which gave rise to the Annual Bonus Deferral; and (C) the value of each Annual Director Fee Deferral and the value of any Matching Units attributable to such Annual Director Fee Deferral shall be distributed to the Eligible Director in one lump sum payment, in five (5) substantially equal annual payments or in ten (10) substantially equal annual payments, whichever form of distribution has been elected by the Eligible Director in the Director Fee Deferral Election Form which gave rise to the Annual Director Fee Deferral. With respect to amounts which a Participant is entitled to receive based on Base Salary and Bonus or Director Fees deferred by the Participant, if the Participant is entitled to a distribution because his employment has been terminated or his status as a member of the Board of Directors has been terminated and if the value of the Participant’s Account which is attributable to Base Salary, Bonus or Director Fees deferred by the Participant, when combined with the value of the Participant’s account, established under the terms of the 2005 MSPP is less than or equal to the applicable dollar amount provided for under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code (as adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury), then such cash value shall be distributed to the Participant in one lump sum. Distribution of any lump sum contemplated by the preceding provisions of this Section 2.01(l) and distribution of the first installment of any series of annual installments contemplated by this Section 2.01(l) will be made in the first calendar month following the end of the six (6) month period which begins on the first day following the date the Participant’s employment or status as a member of the Board of directors is terminated and, if distribution is to be made in installments, subsequent installments shall be distributed in each January thereafter until the end of the installment period selected by the Participant. The payments required to be made to the Participant as described above in this Section 2.01(l) shall be paid in cash less applicable withholding taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, if the value of a Participant’s Account attributable to Base Salary and Bonus or Director Fees deferred by the Participant, including any applicable Matching Units, when combined with the value of the Participant’s account, established under the terms of the 2005 MSPP, exceeds the applicable dollar amount provided for under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code (as adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury), then each Annual Base Salary Deferral, each Annual Bonus Deferral and each Annual Director Fee Deferral and the Matching Units
Exhibit 10.5
attributable to any such Annual Base Salary Deferral, Annual Bonus Deferral or Annual Director Fee Deferral may be paid in one of the three optional forms for distribution provided for such amounts, whichever form is selected by the Participant with respect to such Annual Base Salary Deferral, Annual Bonus Deferral or Annual Director Fee Deferral in the Base Salary Deferral Election Form, the Bonus Deferral Election Form or the Director Fee Deferral Election Form which is delivered by the Participant to the Committee with respect to any such Annual Base Salary Deferral, Annual Bonus Deferral or Annual Director Fee Deferral.
(u)
(v)During the period between the date the Participant’s Account is converted to cash and the date the entire value of the Participant’s Account is distributed, the value of the Account shall be increased by interest at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate, compounded annually.
(w)
(x)If a Participant is entitled to a distribution because a Change in Control has occurred, on the date such Change in Control occurs, each Participant shall be paid an amount, in one lump sum payment less applicable withholding taxes, equal to the total number of Restricted Units credited to the Participant’s Account multiplied by the Fair Market Value of one Share determined as of the date on which the Change in Control occurs.
