Exhibit 10.4.i
LONG TERM INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE SHARE
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
PURSUANT TO THE FMC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AND STOCK PLAN
This Agreement is made as of the 26th day of February, 2009 (the “Grant Date”) by FMC TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) and <<Participant Name>> (the “Employee”).
In 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) adopted the FMC Technologies, Inc. Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan, as it may be amended and continued, is incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement and will control the rights and obligations of the Company and the Employee under this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all capitalized terms have the meanings provided in the Plan. To the extent there is a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan will control.
The Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) determined that it would be to the competitive advantage and interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant an award of restricted stock units to the Employee, the amount of which will vary based on the Company’s performance, as an inducement to remain in the service of the Company or one of its affiliates (collectively, the “Employer”), and as an incentive for increased efforts during such service.
The Committee, on behalf of the Company, grants to the Employee an award of << # of Shares Granted>> shares of restricted stock (the “Restricted Shares”) of the Company’s common stock par value of $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). The number of shares ultimately earned by the Employee will depend upon the Company’s 2009 fiscal year performance on three performance criteria – EBITDA growth, Return on Investment, and Total Shareholder Return relative to the performance of eleven (11) other oilfield service and equipment companies that are designated by the Committee at the time of the Committee’s approval of the grant of this award. The actual number of Restricted Shares earned by the Employee will be determined at a meeting of the Committee following the completion of the 2009 fiscal year, at which time the Committee will review and approve the Company’s calculation of the Company’s performance on the three specified performance criteria.The total number of shares issued will vary between 0% and 200% of a target award amount depending on whether the Company’s full year performance on the three performance criteria is determined to be above average, average or below average relative to the peer group of peer group of 11 selected oilfield service and equipment companies, with one third of the total grant being tied to each of the three performance measures. The Company’s performance on each of these measures will be
designated “above average” if the Company’s performance is better than the midpoint between the 3rd and 4th ranked peer companies for such measure (1st being the highest performance), “average” if the Company’s performance is better than the midpoint between the 8th and 9th ranked peer companies for such measure and lower than the midpoint between the 3rd and 4th ranked peer companies for such measure, and “below average” if the Company’s performance is below the midpoint between the 8th and 9th ranked peer companies for such measure. For below-average performance on any of the three performance measures, the Employee will receive 0% of the one-third portion of this grant that is tied to such performance measure, for average performance, 100% of such one-third portion of this grant tied to that performance measure, and for above-average performance, 200% of such one-third portion of this grant. A 0% of the one-third portion of this grant will be reflected if the Total Shareholder Return is 0% or below regardless of the performance relative to the peer group.
The award is made upon the following terms and conditions:
1.Vesting. The Restricted Shares ultimately earned by the Employee will vest and be immediately transferable on January 2, 2012 (the “Vesting Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Shares will vest and be immediately transferable in the event of the Employee’s death or Disability, or a Change in Control of the Company and, for purposes of determining the amount of the resulting award, it will be assumed that the Company achieved “average” performance on each of the performance measures, resulting in the payment of 100% of the award amount of this grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the Employee’s retirement under the Company’s pension plan on or after age 62, the Restricted Shares will vest and be immediately transferable on the Vesting Date. All Restricted Shares will be forfeited upon termination of the Employee’s employment with the Employer before the Vesting Date for a reason other than death, Disability, a Change in Control of the Company or retirement under the Company’s pension plan on or after age 62.Prior to the Vesting Date, an Award remains subject to substantial risk of forfeiture.
