ITEM 5.02

DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
|
On April 18, 2011, Miller Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and Mr. Jeffrey I. Badgley, the Company’s Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to Mr. Badgley’s employment agreement with the Company that was entered into as of December 30, 2008 (as amended, the “Agreement”).
The Amendment, which was approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board, provides a new cash bonus plan for Mr. Badgley designed to emphasize the objective of maintaining profitability during every part of the business cycle. Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Badgley is entitled to an annual cash bonus equal to 1.0% of the first $20 million of the Company’s pre-tax net income, plus 0.5% of the Company’s pre-tax net income in excess of $20 million, subject to Compensation Committee discretion to decrease such amount as it deems appropriate. In the event that the Company incurs a pretax net loss at any time that Mr. Badgley remains the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, then bonus amounts previously paid on equivalent pretax profit would be recovered from Mr. Badgley. These amounts may be recovered by offsetting future bonuses or salary or by direct repayment from Mr. Badgley or, in the event of Mr. Badgley’s termination from employment with the Company, payments otherwise due under the Agreement. Mr. Badgley’s total compensation as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, which includes salary and bonus compensation, may not exceed $975,000 annually.
The description of the Amendment set forth above is a summary and is not meant to be a complete description of the Amendment. The description of the Amendment set forth above is qualified by reference to the Amendment filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
