Item 5.02 (e) Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

 

On September 24, 2019, the Executive Compensation and Personnel Policies Committee of the Board of Directors of PotlatchDeltic Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), approved the grant of restricted stock units under the Company’s 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Award”), to Eric J. Cremers, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, in view of Mr. Cremers’ development and contributions as President and COO, and to incentivize him to remain in the employ of the Company and continue his professional development as part of the Company’s management succession planning. The Award, which has a target value of $1 million, provides Mr. Cremers the opportunity to earn 24,467 shares of PotlatchDeltic Common Stock based on the closing price of the stock on the date of grant.

 

The Award is subject to time vesting and will be earned only if Mr. Cremers remains employed with the Company through September 24, 2022.  Shares issued upon vesting of the Award may not be sold or otherwise transferred by Mr. Cremers for a period of one year after vesting. The Award will become 100% vested if a “change in control” of the Company occurs and within one month prior to or two years after the change in control that is at least six months following the grant date, Mr. Cremer’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” or by him for “good reason.” In the event of Mr. Cremers’ death or disability (but not retirement), Mr. Cremers will be entitled to a prorated number of the shares subject to the Award based on the number of completed calendar months he is employed during the vesting period. The terms “change in control,” “cause” and “good reason” are as defined in the Company’s current form of Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement. Mr. Cremer’s award is otherwise subject to the other terms of the Company’s current form of Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, as modified to reflect the terms of the Award.
