Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
In light of current market conditions and actions taken by Archrock, Inc. (the “Company”) to reduce costs, including reductions to the Company’s staffing levels, and improve cash flow, each of D. Bradley Childers, David S. Miller, Robert E. Rice and Donald C. Wayne (each, an “Executive”) entered into compensation letters (the “Compensation Letters”) with the Company on August 3, 2016, which provide for a 10% reduction in each Executive’s annual base salary. Under their respective Compensation Letters, effective as of August 7, 2016, the Executives have agreed to reductions to their annual base salaries to the following levels: Mr. Childers: $720,000; Mr. Miller: $297,000; Mr. Rice: $360,000; and Mr. Wayne: $337,500. In addition, pursuant to his Compensation Letter, Mr. Childers has waived his annual short-term incentive award in respect of the Company’s fiscal year 2016 under the Company’s 2016 short-term incentive program.
Under each Executive’s Compensation Letter, if an Executive incurs a qualifying termination of employment under his severance benefit agreement with the Company (a “Severance Benefit Agreement”) or his change of control agreement with the Company (a “Change of Control Agreement”), then, for purposes of calculating the applicable Executive’s severance payments and benefits under his Severance Benefit Agreement or Change of Control Agreement (as applicable), the Company will apply the Executive’s pre-reduction base salary and, for Mr. Childers, the target short-term incentive opportunity that would have otherwise applied to Mr. Childers with respect to fiscal year 2016.
Further, each Executive has agreed to waive his right to resign his employment with the Company for “good reason” (as defined in the applicable Severance Benefit Agreement or Change of Control Agreement) in connection with the compensation changes described in the applicable Executive’s Compensation Letter. In the event of any subsequent reduction in an Executive’s annual base salary, the cumulative impact of such subsequent reduction and the compensation changes described in the applicable Executive’s Compensation Letter may be taken into account for determining whether “good reason” exists under the Executive’s Severance Benefit Agreement or Change of Control Agreement (as applicable).
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Compensation Letter, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated in this Item 5.02 by reference.
