Item 5.02

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

(e)(i)On July 19, 2017, the Board of Directors of Landec Corporation (the “Registrant”) approved a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) for fiscal year 2020 under which certain employees, including the named executive officers, Molly Hemmeter, Gregory Skinner and Ronald Midyett (the “Participating Employees”) will be eligible to receive bonuses based on the Company’s return on invested capital (“ROIC”) for fiscal year 2020. ROIC will be calculated by dividing the Company’s consolidated Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (“EBIT”) by the sum of the Company’s average consolidated debt plus average stockholders’ equity for fiscal year 2020. Participating Employees will earn cash bonuses based upon the actual ROIC for fiscal year 2020 meeting or exceeding the specified target ROIC. Bonuses are calculated by multiplying each Participating Employee’s individual target amount by the percentage of the target ROIC that is achieved in fiscal year 2020. The individual target amounts for the Participating Employees range from 18% to 62% of their base salaries. Each Participating Employee’s eligibility to receive the foregoing bonus will be subject to his or her continuing as an employee of the Company through the last day of fiscal year 2020.
