Item 5.02. Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On October 27, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the Company’s Amended and Restated Cash Deferral Plan (the “Restated Plan”), which amends and restates the Company’s Cash Deferral Plan (the “Legacy Plan”). The Restated Plan will be effective as of November 1, 2016. Compared to the Legacy Plan, the Restated Plan, among other things, removes certain limitations on the number of deemed investment elections that participants are allowed to make in any given period. In connection with the changes to the plan, the Company has also established a revocable rabbi trust for use as a funding vehicle to help satisfy the Company’s liabilities under the Restated Plan. The Board has selected Fidelity Management Trust Company as the authorized service provider for the Restated Plan and as custodian for the Company’s rabbi trust.
The foregoing summary of the Restated Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restated Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K.
