|
|
|
Vote on any other business properly brought before the meeting. |
Please refer to the accompanying Proxy Statement for additional
information about the matters to be considered at the meeting.
You may vote at the meeting if you are a stockholder of record
on March 6, 2006.
MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE RE-ELECTION OF EACH OF
THE NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR
Your vote is important. To be sure that your vote counts and
to assure a quorum, please submit your vote promptly whether or
not you plan to attend the meeting. You can revoke a proxy prior
to its exercise at the meeting by following the instructions in
the accompanying Proxy Statement.
Most stockholders have a choice of voting on the Internet, by
telephone or by mailing a traditional proxy card. If you are a
stockholder of record and you plan to attend the meeting, please
mark the appropriate box on your proxy card or use the
alternative Internet or telephone voting options in accordance
with the voting instructions you have received. If you vote by
telephone or on the Internet, you do not need to return your
proxy card. If your shares are held by a bank, broker or other
intermediary and you plan to attend, please send written
notification to our Investor Relations Department, 200 E.
Randolph Drive, 66th Floor, Chicago, Illinois 60601, and enclose
evidence of your ownership (such as a letter from the bank,
broker or intermediary confirming your ownership or a bank or
brokerage firm account statement). The names of all those
indicating they plan to attend the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders will be placed on an admission list held at the
registration desk at the entrance to the meeting.

I. Information about Voting
Why Am I Receiving This Proxy Statement? The Board of
Directors of FMC Technologies, Inc. (FMC
Technologies or the Company) is soliciting
proxies for use at its 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and
any adjournments of that meeting. FMC Technologies first mailed
this proxy statement, the accompanying form of proxy and the FMC
Technologies Annual Report for 2005 on April 3, 2006.
What Will Occur at the Annual Meeting? The agenda for the
Annual Meeting is to:
|
|
|
|
1. |
Re-elect three directors: Mike R. Bowlin, Edward J. Mooney and
James M. Ringler; and |
|
|
2. |
Conduct any other business properly brought before the meeting
and any adjournment thereof. |
Who Can Vote? You can vote at the Annual Meeting if you
are a holder of FMC Technologies Common Stock, par value of
$0.01 per share (Common Stock), as of the close of
business on the record date. The record date is March 6,
2006. You will have one vote for each share of Common Stock. As
of that date, there were 68,753,564 shares of Common Stock
outstanding and entitled to vote. The shares you may vote
include those held directly in your name as a stockholder of
record, shares you hold under FMC Technologies benefit
plans and shares held for you as a beneficial owner through a
broker, bank or other nominee.
Many FMC Technologies stockholders hold their shares through a
stockbroker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their
name. If your shares are registered directly in your name with
FMC Technologies transfer agent, National City Bank, you
are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those
shares, and FMC Technologies is sending these proxy materials
directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you have the
right to grant your voting proxy to the persons appointed by FMC
Technologies or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If your
shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or
other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares
held in street name, and these proxy materials are being
forwarded to you by your broker or nominee who is considered the
stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the
beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or
nominee on how to vote your shares, and you are also invited to
attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not a
stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person
at the Annual Meeting unless you bring with you a proxy,
executed in your favor, from the stockholder of record. Your
broker or nominee is obligated to provide you with a voting
instruction card for you to use.
How Do I Vote My Shares? You may vote your shares in one
of the following ways:
|
|
|
|
|
You can attend the Annual Meeting and cast your vote there if
you are a stockholder of record on the record date or you have a
proxy from the record holder designating you as the proxy. |
|
|
|
You can vote by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy
card by mail. If you do, the individuals named on the card will
vote your shares in the way you indicate. |
|
|
|
You can vote by telephone or through the Internet in accordance
with the instructions printed on the proxy card or other
instructions that you receive from the Company or your bank,
broker or other nominee. |
|
|
|
You can provide voting instructions to the bank, broker or other
nominee that is the holder of record of shares of Common Stock
that you beneficially own, if you hold your shares in street
name (such as through a bank or broker), by the method
communicated to you by such bank, broker or other nominee. |
Telephone and Internet voting for stockholders of record will be
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and will close at
11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on May 2, 2006. If
you vote by telephone or through the Internet, you do not have
to return your proxy card.
Who Counts the Votes? Our Board of Directors will
designate individuals to serve as inspectors of election for the
Annual Meeting. The inspectors will determine the number of
shares
outstanding and the number of shares represented at the Annual
Meeting. They will also determine the validity of proxies and
ballots, count all of the votes and determine the results of the
actions taken at the Annual Meeting.
What Are The Voting Requirements For The Matters Submitted To
A Stockholder Vote? The presence of the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to
vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by
proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum. A quorum is required
to hold the meeting. Abstentions and broker
non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote for
purposes of determining a quorum. A broker non-vote
occurs when a bank, broker or other holder of record holding
shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular
proposal because that holder does not have discretionary voting
power for that particular item and has not received instructions
from the beneficial owner.
If you are a beneficial owner, your bank, broker or other holder
of record is permitted to vote your shares on the election of
directors even if the broker does not receive voting
instructions from you.
A plurality of the votes cast is required for the election of
directors. This means that the director nominee with the most
votes for a particular slot is elected for that slot. Only votes
for or withheld affect the outcome.
Abstentions are not counted for purposes of the election of
directors.
Could Other Matters Be Decided At The Annual Meeting? At
the date this Proxy Statement went to press, we did not know of
any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting other than those
referred to in this Proxy Statement.
If other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting
for consideration, the proxy holders designated on the proxy
cards or designated in the other voting instructions you have
submitted will have the discretion to vote on those matters for
you.
Can I Access The Notice Of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement
And 2005 Annual Report On The Internet? The Notice of Annual
Meeting, Proxy Statement and 2005 Annual Report may be viewed
and downloaded from our Website at
www.fmctechnologies.com/2006Proxy and
www.fmctechnologies.com/2005AnnualReport. Instead of
receiving future copies of our Proxy Statement and Annual Report
by mail, most stockholders can elect to receive an e-mail that
will provide electronic links to the materials. Opting to
receive your proxy materials online will save the cost of
producing and mailing documents to your home or business, and
also will give you an electronic link to the proxy voting site.
Can I Revoke a Proxy After I Submit It? You may revoke
your proxy at any time before it is exercised. You can revoke a
proxy by:
|
|
|
|
|
Sending a written notice to the Secretary of FMC Technologies at
the Companys principal executive offices at 1803 Gears
Road, Houston, Texas 77067; |
|
|
|
Delivering a properly executed, later-dated proxy; |
|
|
|
Voting again by telephone or through the Internet in accordance
with the instructions provided to you for voting your shares; or |
|
|
|
Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. |
II. Proposal 1 Election of Directors
Election of Directors
FMC Technologies has three classes of directors, each class
being of as nearly equal size as possible. The term for each
class is three years. Class terms expire on a rolling basis, so

Edward J. Mooney and James M. Ringler. Information about
the nominees, the continuing directors and the Board of
Directors is contained in the section of this Proxy Statement
entitled Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors expects that all of the nominees will be
able and willing to serve as directors. If any nominee is not
available:
|
|
|
|
|
the proxies may be voted for another person nominated by the
current Board of Directors to fill the vacancy; |
|
|
|
the Board of Directors may decide to leave the vacancy
temporarily unfilled; or |
|
|
|
the size of the Board of Directors may be reduced. |
The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the re-election

IV. Information about the Board of Directors
Corporate Governance
Our Board of Directors believes that the purpose of corporate
governance is to ensure that we maximize stockholder value in a
manner that is consistent with the legal requirements applicable
to FMC Technologies and a business model that requires the
Companys employees to conduct business with the highest
standards of integrity. The Board has adopted and adheres to
corporate governance principles which the Board and senior
management believe promote this purpose, are sound and represent
best practices. The Board reviews these governance practices,
the corporate laws of the State of Delaware under which FMC
Technologies was incorporated, the rules and listing standards
of the New York Stock Exchange and the regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as best practices
recognized by governance authorities to benchmark the standards
under which it operates. The corporate governance principles
adopted by the Board of Directors may be viewed on the Corporate
Governance section of FMC Technologies Website under
Corporate Overview at www.fmctechnologies.com and are
also available in print to any stockholder upon request. A
request should be directed to the Companys principal
executive offices at 1803 Gears Road, Houston, Texas 77067,
Attention: Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.
Meetings
During 2005, the Board of Directors held seven regular meetings
and no special meetings. All incumbent directors attended all
meetings of the Board and all meetings of Board committees on
which they served with the exception of Mr. Pattarozzi, who
was not in attendance for one telephonic meeting of the Board of
Directors and Mr. Ringler, who attended seven of the eight
Audit Committee meetings. The Board of Directors has scheduled a
meeting in the morning prior to the 2006 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, and the Board encourages its members to attend the
Annual Meeting of Stockholders. In 2005, seven of the eight
members of the Board of Directors attended the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders.
Committees of the Board of Directors
During 2005, the Board of Directors had three standing
committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a
Nominating and Governance Committee.
Each of these committees operates pursuant to a written charter
setting out the functions and responsibilities of the committee,
each of which may be reviewed on the Corporate Governance
section of FMC Technologies Website at
www.fmctechnologies.com and is also available in print to
stockholders upon request submitted to the Companys
principal executive offices.

Audit Committee
The Audit Committee charter gives the Audit Committee the
authority and responsibility for the engagement, compensation
and oversight of FMC Technologies independent public
accountants and the review and approval in advance of the scope
of audit and non-audit assignments and the related fees of the
independent public accountants. The Audit Committee charter also
gives this committee authority to fulfill its obligations under
Securities and Exchange Commission and New York Stock Exchange
requirements, which include:
|
|
|
|
|
responsibilities associated with FMC Technologies external
and internal audit staffing and planning; |
|
|
|
accounting and financial reporting issues associated with its
financial statements and filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission; |
|
|
|
financial and accounting organization and internal controls; |
|
|
|
auditor independence and approval of non-audit services; and |
|
|
|
whistle-blower procedures for reporting questionable
accounting and audit practices. |
Audit Committee members meet privately in separate sessions with
representatives of FMC Technologies senior management, the
independent public accountants and FMC Technologies
Director of Internal Audit after selected Audit Committee
meetings (four such sessions were held in 2005).
The Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of
the Audit Committee (C. Maury Devine, Thomas M. Hamilton,
Asbjorn Larsen, Edward J. Mooney and James M. Ringler) meet the
New York Stock Exchange standard of having accounting or related
financial management expertise and meet the Securities and
Exchange Commission criteria for an audit committee
financial expert.

charter are:
|
|

Executive Officer; |

|
|
|
reviewing and approving major changes in employee benefit plans; |
|

and |

Stockholders may submit recommendations for future candidates
for election to the Board of Directors for consideration by the
Nominating and Governance Committee by writing to
Jeffrey W. Carr, Vice President, General Counsel and
Secretary of FMC Technologies, Inc., 1803 Gears Road,
Houston, Texas 77067. A letter making a director candidate
recommendation must include the candidates name,
biographical information and a summary of the candidates
qualifications. In addition, the letter should be accompanied by
a signed statement from the nominee that indicates that the
nominee is willing to serve as a member of the Board. In order
to make a recommendation for the 2007 Annual Meeting, please
refer to the timing requirements specified in the section of
this Proxy Statement entitled Proposals for the 2007
Annual Meeting of Stockholders. All submissions from
stockholders meeting these requirements will be reviewed by the
Nominating and Governance Committee.
The Nominating and Governance Committee has not established
specific, minimum qualifications for director nominees that it
recommends to the Board but instead periodically advises the
Board of the combination of skills, experience, perspective and
background that its members believe are required for the
effective functioning of the Board considering FMC
Technologies current business strategies and its
regulatory, geographic and market environment. FMC
Technologies corporate governance principles provide that
directors should be selected based on integrity, successful
business experience, stature in their own fields of endeavor and
the diversity of perspectives they bring to the Board. The
Companys corporate governance principles also require that
a majority of FMC Technologies non-management directors
should be active or retired senior executives, preferably Chief
Executive or Chief Operating Officers of publicly-held
companies. In addition, the corporate governance principles
provide that FMC Technologies non-management directors
should also be chosen based on recognized experience in FMC
Technologies lines of business and leadership in areas of
government service, academia, finance and international trade.
Nominees to be evaluated by the Nominating and Governance
Committee for future vacancies on the Board will be selected by
the committee from candidates recommended by multiple sources,
including business and personal contacts of the members of the
Nominating and Governance Committee, recommendations by FMC
Technologies senior management and candidates identified
by independent search firms, stockholders and other sources, all
of whom will be evaluated based on the same criteria. All of the
current nominees for the Board are standing members of the Board
that are proposed by the entire Board for re-election.
During 2005, the Nominating and Governance Committee utilized an
executive search firm to assist in the identification of
candidates for the vacant seat on the Board of Directors and to
support the
9
committees research and evaluation of candidate
credentials. This search resulted in the appointment of C. Maury
Devine to fill the vacant Board seat.
Director Independence
The Nominating and Governance Committee conducted a review of
the independence of the members of the Board of Directors and
its committees and reported its findings to the full Board at
its February 21, 2006 meeting. Eight of FMC
Technologies nine directors (including all three of the
nominees presently standing for re-election) are non-management
directors. The Nominating and Governance Committee reviewed the
commercial relationships between FMC Technologies and its
subsidiaries, affiliates and executive officers with companies
with whom the non-management directors are affiliated or
employed. Although the Board has not adopted categorical
standards of materiality, none of the relationships was deemed
to be material. Responses to questionnaires completed by the
directors did not indicate any material relationships (including
industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable
or familial relationships) which would impair the independence
of any of the non-management directors.
Based on the report and recommendation of the Nominating and
Governance Committee, the Board has determined that each of its
eight non-management members, Mike R. Bowlin, C. Maury
Devine, Thomas M. Hamilton, Asbjorn Larsen, Edward J. Mooney,
Richard A. Pattarozzi, James M. Ringler and James R. Thompson,
satisfies the independence criteria set forth in the corporate
governance listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. In
addition, all of the members of the Audit Committee satisfy the
enhanced independence criteria required for members of audit
committees under regulations adopted by the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange corporate
governance listing standards.
The Board monitors and reviews, at least annually, commercial,
charitable and other relationships that the directors have with
FMC Technologies to determine whether a majority of its members
continue to remain independent.
Executive Sessions of Independent Directors
The Board of Directors holds executive sessions of only its
non-management directors after most regularly scheduled Board of
Directors meetings. Mr. Bowlin, the Chair of the
Compensation Committee, has been selected by the Board of
Directors to continue to serve as the presiding chairperson, or
presiding non-management director, for these executive sessions
during 2006.
Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate
directly with the Board of Directors, with the presiding
non-management director for an upcoming meeting or the
non-management directors as a group by submitting written
correspondence c/o Presiding Non-Management Director, FMC
Technologies, Inc., 1803 Gears Road, Houston, Texas 77067.
Director Compensation
Compensation Plan. In 2001, FMC Technologies adopted a
compensation plan for non-management members of its Board of
Directors as a part of the FMC Technologies, Inc. Incentive
Compensation and Stock Plan (FMC Technologies Stock
Plan). The FMC Technologies Stock Plan grants the Board of
Directors the authority to modify the terms of the Board of
Directors compensation plan pursuant to a resolution of
the Board of Directors.
For 2005, each non-management director received an annual
retainer of $40,000. At least $25,000 of this annual retainer
was paid in restricted stock units. The remainder was either
paid in equal quarterly installments in cash or, at the election
of the non-management director, deferred and invested in
restricted stock units. These restricted stock units had a fair
market value equal to the deferred amount of the annual retainer
on the date of the grant and vest on the date of the 2006 Annual
Meeting. The restricted stock units are payable in Common Stock
upon cessation of service on the Board of Directors.
10
The Company also makes an annual non-retainer equity grant to
its non-management directors of restricted stock or restricted
stock units of equivalent value which, for 2005, was awarded in
the form of restricted stock units in May. These awards will
vest on the date of the 2006 Annual Meeting. Restricted stock
units are forfeited if a director ceases service on the Board of
Directors prior to the vesting date. Unvested restricted stock
units will be settled and are payable in Common Stock upon the
death of a director or in the event of a change in control of
FMC Technologies as described under Executive
Compensation Termination and Change of Control
Arrangements below.
The non-management directors also received cash remuneration in
the amount of $1,500 for each Board of Directors meeting
attended and $2,000 for each Board of Directors committee
meeting attended, and each director was reimbursed for
reasonable incidental expenses incurred in connection with
attendance of meetings of the Board and Board committees. The
non-management chairs of the Compensation Committee and the
Nominating and Governance Committee received an additional fee
of $8,000, and the non-management chair of the Audit Committee
received an additional fee of $12,000.

Technologies to its non-management directors in 2005:

C. Maury Devine joined the Board of Directors in July 2005.
Although her annual retainer was adjusted on a pro rata basis,
the Board elected to award Ms. Devine a full annual
non-retainer equity grant for 2005. |
Based upon an analysis of market compensation for directors in
the oilfield services industry, FMC Technologies Board of
Directors approved the recommendation of its Compensation
Committee to adjust non-management director compensation for
2006. Effective January 1, 2006, the annual retainer was
increased to $45,000, board meeting fees were increased to
$1,750 per meeting and the targeted value of the non-retainer
equity grants for FMC Technologies non-management
directors was increased to $85,000.
Other Compensation. Employees of FMC Technologies who
serve on the Board of Directors do not receive additional
compensation for their service as directors. No other
remuneration is paid to directors. Directors who are not FMC
Technologies employees do not participate in FMC
Technologies employee benefit plans other than the FMC
Technologies Stock Plan and the Companys matching program
for charitable contributions.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
in Compensation Decisions
In 2005, the members of the Compensation Committee of the Board
were Messrs. Bowlin, Hamilton, Pattarozzi, Ringler and
Thompson, none of whom has ever been an officer or employee of
FMC Technologies or any of its subsidiaries. None of the
executive officers of FMC Technologies has ever served on the
board of directors or on the compensation committee of any other
entity that has had any executive officer serving as a member of
FMC Technologies Board of Directors.

V. Certain Relationships and Related Party
Transactions
Board Of Directors Relationships and Related Party
Transactions
FMC Technologies and certain of its subsidiaries transacted
business during 2005 with certain organizations for which FMC
Technologies directors now serve, or during 2005 did serve, as
officers or directors. In no case have the amounts involved been
material in relation to FMC Technologies business or, to
the knowledge and belief of FMC Technologies management,
to the businesses of the other organizations or to the
individuals concerned. Such transactions were on terms no less
favorable to FMC Technologies than were reasonably available
from unrelated third parties.
VI. Security Ownership of FMC Technologies

Benefits shown are total qualified plus nonqualified pension
benefits, and will not be reduced by Social Security benefits or
other offsets. |
(2) |
Final Average Earnings in the table means the
average of pensionable earnings for the highest 60 consecutive
calendar months out of the 120 calendar months immediately
before retirement. Pensionable earnings include amounts reported
in the Salary and Bonus columns of the Summary Compensation
Table in this Proxy Statement. |
At February 1, 2006, Messrs. Netherland, Schumann,
Kinnear, Cannon, and Potter had 32, 24, 34, 23, and
32 years of credited service under the pension plan (and
its supplements), respectively.
Applicable benefits for employees whose years of service and
earnings differ from those shown in the table are equal to (A +
B) times (C) where: (A) equals 1 percent of Final
Average Earnings up to the Social Security Covered Compensation
base ($51,252 for a participant retiring at age 65 in 2006)
times years of credited service projected to age 65 (up to a
maximum of 35 years) plus 1.5 percent of Final Average
Earnings in excess of the Social Security Covered Compensation
base times years of credited service projected to age 65 (up to
a maximum of 35 years); (B) equals 1.5 percent of
Final Average Earnings times years of credited service projected
to age 65 in excess of 35 years; and (C) equals the
ratio of credited service at termination to credited service
projected to age 65.
Termination and Change of Control Arrangements
Plan and Participants. The Board of Directors adopted an
Executive Severance Plan in 2001. Eighteen officers and managers
participate in the plan, including all five of the individuals
listed in the Summary Compensation Table.
Benefits. If a change in control (as described below) of
FMC Technologies occurs and if, within two years of that change
of control, a participants employment is terminated
without cause or a participant voluntarily terminates his or her
employment because his or her duties, location, salary,
compensation or benefits are changed or are reduced, then the
participant is generally entitled to benefits from FMC
Technologies. In general, those benefits include: (i) a
lump sum payment of three, two or one (depending on position)
times the total of annual salary plus the greater of
(a) the highest annualized target total management
incentive award granted for any year and (b) the average of
the actual total management incentive awards paid for the two
plan years immediately preceding the executives
termination; (ii) a payment equal to prorated target
management incentive award for the year of termination;
(iii) immediate vesting of long-term incentive awards,
restricted stock and stock options; (iv) continuation of
medical and other benefits for up to three, two or one
(depending on position) years; (v) distribution of accrued
nonqualified retirement plan benefits; and (vi) up to an
additional three, two or one (depending
16
on position) years of credited service for purposes of our
nonqualified retirement plans. FMC Technologies will compensate
the participant for any excise tax liability as a result of
payments under the plan and any federal income tax payable on
such compensation for excise tax liability.
Change in Control. In general, the following transactions
are considered changes in control under the plan: (i) a
third partys acquisition of 20 percent or more of the
outstanding Common Stock; (ii) a change in the majority of
the Board of Directors; (iii) completion of specified

Report of the Compensation Committee on Executive
Compensation
Goals. FMC Technologies executive compensation
program is designed to align total compensation with stockholder
interests. The program:
|
|
|
|
|
Incents and rewards executives for sound business management and
improvement in stockholder value. |
|
|
|
Balances its components so that both short- and longer-term
operating and strategic objectives are recognized. |
|
|
|
Requires achieving objectives within a
high-performance environment to be rewarded. |
|
|
|
Is intended to attract, motivate and retain executives necessary
for the long-term success of FMC Technologies. |
The program consists of three different compensation components:
base salary; variable cash incentive awards; and long-term
incentive awards (stock options and restricted stock).
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has
oversight responsibility for all aspects of executive
compensation. At the February 2006 Compensation Committee
meeting, the Committee formalized its relationship with the
outside executive compensation consultant FMC Technologies has
historically engaged for executive compensation matters. The
Committee has retained the executive compensation consultant on
executive compensation issues to provide competitive market
studies of pay and benefits and incentive plan design advice.
Additionally, the Compensation Committees executive
compensation consultant will guide the Committee on decision
making to ensure consistency with the Companys business
strategy, pay philosophy, prevailing market practices, and
relevant legal and regulatory mandates.
Base Salary. The Compensation Committees executive
compensation consultant conducts an annual external survey to
set competitive base salary ranges for our executives. In order
to obtain the most relevant survey data, the consultant surveys
comparable companies in the industries in which FMC Technologies
competes, including many of the companies in the PHLX Oilfield
Service Sector index (OSX). All elements of the companys
executive compensation programs are surveyed, including base
pay, target bonus, long-term incentives, and perquisites for the
CEO and sixteen other executive positions. The most recent
survey indicated the salary midpoint of FMC Technologies
CEO, Mr. Netherland, was 3% below the market median. The
aggregate midpoints for the seventeen survey positions,
including the CEO and the four other executive officers named in
the Summary Compensation Table, were approximately 5% below the
market median, while the actual base salaries for the same group
were at the market median.
Salary ranges for FMC Technologies executives are established
based on similar positions in other companies of comparable size
and complexity. Generally, FMC Technologies sets its competitive
salary midpoint for an executive at the median level compared
with the companies surveyed. Performance levels within the
salary ranges are delineated to recognize different levels of
performance ranging from needs improvement to
exceptional. As a result, although
17
nominally targeted to be at or near the 50th percentile of
comparable organizations, any executives compensation will
actually be within the salary range at a point corresponding to
her or his performance.
Starting placement in a salary range is a function of an
employees skills, experience, expertise and anticipated
job performance. Each year performance is evaluated against
mutually agreed-upon objectives and performance standards that
may, in part, be subjective; a performance rating is
established; and a salary increase may be granted. For
Mr. Netherland, performance factors used in 2005 included
improving upon the Companys world class safety
performance, continuing to build management depth, improving
market positions through profitable growth and new product
introductions, and evaluating the Companys capital
structure.
Mr. Netherland last received a base salary increase in June
2005. In that year, the Compensation Committee evaluated his
performance as outstanding based on performance results versus
the mutually agreed upon objectives noted above.
Mr. Netherland was awarded a base salary increase of 3.0%,
placing him at 107.3% of his grade midpoint and in the
outstanding pay category in his salary range.
Management Incentive Awards. Management Incentive Awards
under the FMC Technologies Stock Plan provide for annual cash
bonuses for achievement of both annual performance incentive
(API) targets and business performance incentive
(BPI) targets. The Committee oversees the FMC
Technologies Stock Plan objectives and design as well as the
setting of performance targets and approval of awards. For
participating managers, target management incentive awards vary
from 24% to 100% of base salary. BPI payments can range from 0
to 3 times the target management incentive awards. In 2005, the
BPI was based on improvement in Net Contribution (50%) and
EBITDA growth (50%).
In 2005, the API comprised 30% of the total target management
incentive awards and the BPI comprised 70% of the total target
management incentive awards for all participants. The API
incentive, in some instances, is less quantitative than the
business performance incentive. The API rating varies based on
how the individuals performance compares to his or her
objectives and can range from 0 to 2 times the target
percentage. It is awarded based on achieving annual objectives
set for the individuals most important business
responsibilities. For Mr. Netherland in 2005, these
achievements included:
|
|
|
|
|
Increase in total revenue of 14.3%, to $3.2 billion from
$2.8 billion |
|
|
|
Increase in backlog year over year of 21.8%, to
$1.93 billion from $1.58 billion |
|
|
|
Increase in share price year over year of 33.3%, to $42.92 from
$32.20 |
|
|
|
Successful repatriation of $473 million of foreign dividends |
|
|
|
Repurchase of 1.75 million shares of FMC Technologies
outstanding common stock |
|
|
|
Improved upon a world class safety record with a new statistical
low in lost workday incidence rates (0.13 vs. a target of 0.14)
and exceeded the target for recordable incidence rates (0.87 vs.
0.92) |
|
|
|
Exceeded undergraduate engineering hiring target by 50% (74
hires vs. a target of 49) with over half of new engineers hired
outside the U.S. |
Mr. Netherlands combined BPI and API payment for
2005, shown in the Bonus column in the Summary Compensation
Table, was $1,341,251.
Equity Awards. The FMC Technologies Stock Plan is
designed to link closely the long-term reward of executives with
increases in stockholder value. The 2001 approval of the FMC
Technologies Stock Plan provides the Committee with broad
discretion to select the appropriate types of rewards. Currently
there are annual long term incentive awards of restricted stock
and/or stock options granted to executives and other management
employees for whom the executive compensation consultants
survey has indicated equity grants are normally part of total
compensation. The vesting period for both the restricted stock
and stock options awarded through this program is three years.
18
The 2005 annual equity awards were granted as restricted stock.
To determine the number of restricted shares to be awarded, the
Compensation Committees executive compensation consultant
provides in its annual executive compensation survey competitive
economic values for each executive position. The number of
restricted shares granted to each executive is based on the
target economic value and the restricted stock valuation of FMC
Technologies stock on December 31. The methodology for valuation
of restricted stock is provided by the executive compensation
consultant. Mr. Netherlands long term incentive award
for 2005 was 86,430 shares of restricted stock. The grants for
the other four executive officers appear in footnote number 4 to
the Summary Compensation Table. The economic value of these
annual grants was consistent with the median value granted to
executives in comparable positions with the companies included
in the survey. Any increases or decreases in the share price
over the vesting period will impact the value of these awards
for the executive.
In 2006, corporate officers will receive one third of the annual
long term incentive awards as performance shares. Payment of
these shares will be based on how FMC Technologies performs on
three measures in comparison to ten companies in the OSX index.
The three measures are EBITDA growth, return on investment, and
total shareholder return. An executive may earn 0 to 200% of the
long-term incentive award depending upon the Companys
performance during the evaluation period.
The FMC Technologies Stock Plan also provides for Management
Incentive Awards in the form of restricted stock grants, which
are awarded very selectively to key management personnel and
high potential managers for retention purposes under a key
manager restricted stock program. Such grants vest in full after
four years. The total number of awards granted to all
participants is determined taking into consideration FMC
Technologies annual run rates and dilution. Corporate
officers are not eligible for these awards.
Section 162(m) Deductibility. The Committee
continues to review the $1 million cap on tax deductible
compensation and is advised that stock option grants made
through the end of 2003 meet the requirements for deductibility.
The FMC Technologies Stock Plan, approved in 2001, may not meet
all requirements for deductibility under Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code. However, unless the amounts involved
become material, the Committee believes that it is more
important to preserve its flexibility under the plan to craft
appropriate incentive awards.
Stock Ownership Policy. FMC Technologies has established
requirements for the ownership of FMC Technologies stock by
corporate officers and directors. The corporate officer
requirements for stock ownership are based on a multiple of two
to five times the individuals total compensation (base
salary plus target bonus) midpoint. The stock ownership
requirement for directors is based on a multiple of five times
the directors annual retainer. All directors and corporate
officers governed by this policy, including all those named in
this Proxy Statement, meet or exceed their respective stock
ownership requirements. Additionally, stock retention
requirements will be in effect for long term incentive awards
vesting after January 1, 2007. Corporate officers will be
required to hold 50% of net after tax shares for a period of one
year following vesting of the Companys long term incentive
awards, subject to continuing compliance with the Companys
stock ownership requirements.

statutory audits and reviews of interim financial statements in
FMC Technologies Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q and the
audit of internal controls over financial reporting for
compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. |
(2) |
For 2004, Audit Related Fees are primarily associated with

planning with respect to various domestic and foreign corporate
tax matters. |
(4) |

relationships between KPMG LLP and FMC Technologies, including
the provision of non-audit services, which may relate to the
auditors independence. The Audit Committees approval
is required prior to retaining KPMG LLP for any permitted
non-audit services and for the fees payable for such services.

Stockholders Sharing an Address
In accordance with notices sent to beneficial owners of
FMC Technologies Common Stock sharing a single address, we are
sending only one FMC Technologies Annual Report and Proxy
Statement to that address unless we receive contrary
instructions from any beneficial owner at that address. This
householding practice reduces our printing and
postage costs. However, if a beneficial owner at such an address
wishes to receive separate Annual Reports or Proxy Statements
this year or in the future, he or she may contact the bank,
broker or other nominee that is the holder of record of that
beneficial owners shares of Common Stock. If you are a
stockholder of record receiving multiple copies, you may
also request householding by contacting our Transfer Agent,
National City Bank, by mail at Corporate Trust Operations, P.O.
Box 92301, Cleveland, Ohio 44193-0900, by telephone at
(800) 622-6757, by facsimile at (216) 257-8508 or by
e-mail at stockholder.inquiries@nationalcity.com.
Expenses Relating to this Proxy Solicitation
FMC Technologies will pay all expenses relating to this proxy
solicitation. In addition to this solicitation by mail, FMC
Technologies officers, directors, and employees may
solicit proxies by telephone or personal call without extra
compensation for that activity. In accordance with the rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock
Exchange, FMC Technologies will also reimburse banks, brokers
and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses in forwarding proxy material to
beneficial owners of Common Stock and obtaining the proxies of
those owners. FMC Technologies has retained Georgeson
Shareholder Services of East Rutherford, New Jersey to assist in
the solicitation of proxies. FMC Technologies will pay the cost
of such assistance, which is estimated to be $8,000, plus
reimbursement for out-of-pocket fees and expenses.
