Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

 

(e)On January 18, 2012, based on a recommendation from its Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors of the Registrant approved the MutualBank 2012 Executive Variable Compensation Plan, which provides for cash incentive payments to designated executives of the Registrant, including its three named executive officers and chief financial officer. This cash incentive plan provides for one-time payments to the designated executives based on the Registrant’s 2012 earnings per share (“EPS”). Under the plan, cash payments are calculated as a percentage of 2012 base salary, with the appropriate percentage determined by what targeted EPS level is met for 2012. The plan does not create any vested rights in the participants and may be modified, repealed or discontinued at any time by the Board of Directors. In addition, the plan includes a clawback requiring repayment to the extent any payment made is later determined to have been based on performance measurements that are subsequently deemed to be inaccurate due to misstatement or misrepresentation.

 

For the named executive officers and chief financial officer of the Registrant, the plan establishes five designated EPS levels (one of which is based on the Registrant’s 2012 budget) and a range of percentage of salary cash incentive payments for meeting each EPS level as follows:
