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

 

(e) On June 9, 2017, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Barrett Business Services, Inc. ("BBSI"), the Board adopted the Barrett Business Services, Inc., Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Effective July 1, 2017, each of BBSI’s five executive officers will be permitted to defer receipt for income tax purposes of up to 90% of his or her salary, as well as up to 50% of any incentive bonus payable to the officer, whether discretionary or based on attainment of performance goals. Beginning January 1, 2018, BBSI intends to expand availability to participate in the Plan to additional management level employees selected by the Compensation Committee. Deferred amounts will be credited to each participant’s account and adjusted to reflect amounts of income, gain or loss as if the amounts credited to such accounts had been invested in investment funds designated under the Plan and selected by the participant. Participants are immediately vested in credits for their contributions to the Plan and related earnings.

 

The Plan does not provide for BBSI to make matching contributions. However, the Compensation Committee approved the automatic grant of restricted stock units ("RSUs") under BBSI’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan, effective on each January 1 and July 1, with a dollar value (based on the closing price of BBSI’s common stock on the grant date or, if not a trading day, the next preceding trading day) equal to 35% of the amount deferred into a participant’s account in the Plan during the preceding six months; provided that the value of such RSUs granted to a single participant may not exceed $75,000 in a calendar year. The RSUs will vest in full on the fifth anniversary of the grant date; provided that the participant continues to be a BBSI employee on that date.
