Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 9, 2024, Sterling Infrastructure, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2024 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, the results of which are set forth in Item 5.07 below, the Company’s shareholders approved the second amended and restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors will generally administer the Plan and has the authority to grant awards under the Plan, including setting the terms of the awards. Awards under the Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of the following forms: non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards, and for officers and employees only, incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. The terms of the Plan are generally consistent with the amended and restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan, but include the following material revisions:
•an increase of the authorized shares under the Plan by 1,900,000 from 3,400,000 to 5,300,000;
•an increase of the number of shares that may be granted without compliance with minimum vesting requirements by 95,000 from 170,000 to 265,000, which is 5% of the total shares available under the Plan; and
•extension of the term of the Plan from May 5, 2031 to May 9, 2034.
The Plan is further described under the heading “Proposal 4: Adoption of the Second Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan” in the 2024 Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2024, which description is hereby incorporated. The information included herein relating to the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
