Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers |
(d) At a meeting of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of FMC Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) on July 26, 2013, based on the recommendation of the Company's Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board increased the size of the Board from 11 directors to 13 directors. The Board nominated Mr. Clarence P. Cazalot, Jr. and Mr. Peter Mellbye as directors of the Board to fill the two vacancies created by the increase in the size of the Board. Messrs. Cazalot and Mellbye accepted their nominations on August 5, 2013. Mr. Mellbye will join the Board effective October 1, 2013, and Mr. Cazalot will join the Board effective December 1, 2013. As of the date of this filing, the Board has not yet determined the committee(s) to which Messrs. Cazalot and Mellbye will be appointed.
For their service, Messrs. Cazalot and Mellbye will receive compensation commensurate with that received by the Company's other non-employee directors, including awards under the Company's Amended and Restated Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan. Their 2013 compensation will be pro-rated to reflect their length of service in 2013. The description of such compensatory arrangements under the caption “Director Compensation” in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 3, 2013, is incorporated herein by reference.
There are no understandings or arrangements between either Messrs. Cazalot and Mellbye and any other person pursuant to which they were selected as a director. There are no relationships between either Messrs. Cazalot or Mellbye and the Company or any of its subsidiaries that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
On August 8, 2013, the Company issued a news release announcing the new director appointments, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1
