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 October 3, 2014, based on the recommendation of the Company’s Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board increased the size of the Board from 12 directors to 13 directors. The Board nominated Mr. Peter Oosterveer as a director of the Board to fill the vacancy created by the increase in the size of the Board. Mr. Oosterveer accepted his nomination on November 4, 2014. Mr. Oosterveer will join the Board effective February 1, 2015. As of the date of this filing, the Board has not yet determined the committee(s) to which Mr. Oosterveer will be appointed.
For his service, Mr. Oosterveer 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. His 2015 compensation will be pro-rated, as applicable, to reflect his length of service in 2015. 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 2, 2014, is incorporated herein by reference.
There are no understandings or arrangements between Mr. Oosterveer and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as a director. There is no relationship between Mr. Oosterveer and the Company or any of its subsidiaries that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
