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

Rolf Rospek currently serves as a member of the Board of Directors of Dynamic Materials Corporation (the “Company”) and as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company’s subsidiary DYNAenergetics Holding GmbH (“DYNAenergetics”).  On September 11, 2012, Mr. Rospek announced his intention to resign from his position as DYNAenergetics Chief Executive Officer on December 31, 2012, at the conclusion of the term of his current employment agreement.  Mr. Rospek will remain a director of the Company.

On September 11, 2012, the Company and DYNAenergetics entered into a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with Mr. Rospek and RoRo-Consult GmbH (the “Consultant”), a German limited liability company owned by Mr. Rospek.  The Consulting Agreement is effective as of January 1, 2013 and continues until December 31, 2014, with the term to be extended automatically through December 31, 2015, unless either the Company or the Consultant notifies the other prior to July 1, 2014 that it elects not to extend the term, or the agreement is otherwise terminated pursuant to the provisions thereof.

The Consulting Agreement provides that the Consultant, through Mr. Rospek, will provide up to 60 days per year during the term of the agreement (exclusive of time spent by Mr. Rospek as a director of the Company) providing consulting services to the Company and DYNAenergetics on specified strategic projects.  As compensation for these services, the Consultant will receive, for each calendar month during the term, a guaranteed amount equal to USD $10,000, payable (a) 50% by DYNAenergetics in Euros, using the last business day of the applicable month for the Euro-USD exchange rate; and (b) 50% by the Company in U.S. dollars.  DYNAenergetics also will reimburse the Consultant, in accordance with its expense reimbursement policies and procedures in effect from time to time, for all reasonable office and travel expenses actually paid or incurred by the Consultant in the course of and pursuant to the performance of consulting services.

During the term of the Consulting Agreement, Consultant and Mr. Rospek may not work for any direct or indirect competitors of the Company, DYNAenergetics or their respective affiliates, or any affiliates of those competitors, and may not solicit or accept work from any customer of the Company, DYNAenergetics or their affiliates.  The Consultant and Mr. Rospek also agree to maintain the confidentiality of information of the Company and DYNAenergetics disclosed to them pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, which obligation will continue following the expiration or termination of the Consulting Agreement.

The Consulting Agreement was reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee of the Board in accordance with the Company’s related party transaction policy and procedures, and was also approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board and the full Board, with Mr. Rospek abstaining.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Consulting Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
