2021 STIP
As previously disclosed, on July 8, 2021, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of PureCycle Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an annual short-term cash incentive program for fiscal 2021 (the “2021 STIP”), including awards to the Company’s principal executive officer (“PEO”), principal financial officer (“PFO”) and other named executive officers (together, the “Named Executives”) thereunder.
As a result of the achievement of certain pre-established Company performance objectives as previously disclosed, on March 2, 2022 the Committee approved the following payouts under the 2021 STIP to the Named Executives:
Named Executive | 2021 STIP Payout |
Mike Otworth | $881,250 |
Michael Dee | $299,250 |
David Brenner | $199,750 |
The Company’s PFO, Lawrence Somma, who was appointed Chief Financial Officer effective November 15, 2021, received no payout under the 2021 STIP. In connection with the appointment of Mr. Somma as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Dee no longer serves as an officer of the Company and therefore will not receive any payments under the 2022 STIP or the 2022 LTIP (each as defined below).
2022 STIP and LTIP
On March 2, 2022, the Committee approved, and with regard to the CEO the Board approved, an annual short-term cash incentive program for fiscal 2022 (the “2022 STIP”) and a long-term equity-based incentive program for fiscal 2022 (the “2022 LTIP”), including awards to the Named Executives thereunder.
The 2022 STIP provides participants with an opportunity to earn cash bonuses upon achievement of certain pre-established Company performance objectives (weighted at 70%), and individual achievement (weighted at 30%), with payouts thereunder ranging from 0% to 200% of target. The Company performance objectives under the STIP include the following: commissioning of the facility located in Ironton, Ohio, financing for the first two lines of the planned cluster facility located in Augusta, Georgia and four pre-processing facilities; and certain progress in the Company’s planned global expansion.
The Committee established the following target awards under the 2022 STIP for the Named Executives:
Named Executive | Target Award | Current Base Salary |
Mike Otworth | 100% | $772,500 |
Lawrence Somma | 70% | $500,000 |
David Brenner | 50% | $351,900 |
In general, 2022 STIP participants must remain continuously employed by the Company until the award payment date in order to receive a payout of an award under the 2022 STIP.
The 2022 LTIP provides participants with an opportunity to earn or vest in equity-based awards under the Company’s 2021 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan. The Committee approved, and with regard to the CEO the Board approved, the following equity-based awards in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to the Named Executives under the 2022 LTIP:
Named Executive | RSUs | Target Number of PSUs |
Mike Otworth | 226,891 | 226,891 |
Lawrence Somma | 58,824 | 58,823 |
David Brenner | 42,017 | 42,017 |
In general, the RSUs will vest in four equal annual installments following the grant date, in each case subject to the participant’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable vesting date.
In general, the PSUs will be earned based on achievement of two equally weighted pre-established performance objectives related to: (i) cumulative earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization through December 31, 2024, and (ii) cumulative production at the Company’s operational manufacturing facilities by December 31, 2024, and will vest on the date the attainment of such performance objectives is determined by the Committee, and with regard to the CEO as determined by the Board, subject to the participant’s continued employment with the Company through December 31, 2024. The actual number of shares (if any) issued in settlement of the PSUs may range from 50% to 200% of target.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the forms of Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Stock Units Agreement for Employees and Notice of Grant of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units Award Agreement for Employees, which were filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 14, 2021.
