ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS;
APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
(e) On October 22, 2007, BIW Limited's wholly-owned subsidiary Birmingham
Utilities, Inc. (the "Company") amended its Employment Agreement dated October
1, 1998 with John Tomac, its President and Treasurer (the "Amendment").
Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Tomac's employment agreement was amended to bring
it into compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to provide
that any severance payments to Mr. Tomac will not be made until the first day of
the seventh month following separation from service. Mr. Tomac's employment
agreement was amended with respect to the payment of severance under the
following circumstances:
o Upon termination by Mr. Tomac upon a breach of the employment agreement
by the Company (Section 4(c)), Mr. Tomac was previously entitled to
receive continued compensation and benefits due as if no breach
occurred. Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Tomac does not receive the
first payment until the first day of the seventh month following
termination (a lump sum for amounts accrued up to that point), and he
then would receive regular periodic payments.
o Upon termination without cause by the Company (Section 4(e)), Mr. Tomac
was previously entitled to receive continued salary and benefits for one
year. Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Tomac would now receive this amount
in a single lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following
termination.
o Upon termination by Mr. Tomac upon a change of control (Section 4(g)),
Mr. Tomac was previously entitled to two times the greater of: (i) his
compensation for the previous full fiscal year or (ii) his average
annual compensation during the two prior fiscal years, such amount to be
payable within 90 days of termination. Pursuant to the Amendment, this
payment would not be made until the first day of the seventh month
following termination.
The Amendment also contains certain technical amendments to the definitions of
"Disability" and "Change of Control" to conform these definitions to Section
409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is
filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
