Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers’ Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
As previously reported, on July 7, 2011, Scott H. Maw notified SeaBright Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) of his decision to resign as senior vice president, chief financial officer and assistant secretary of the Company effective August 5, 2011. Pursuant to his Employment Agreement with the Company, previously filed with Form 8-K on February 9, 2011, Mr. Maw agreed to forfeit and refund to the Company all of the 34,501 vested shares of common stock held by him. The forfeiture of these 34,501 shares, in addition to 12,823 shares previously surrendered, will result in the forfeiture and surrender to the Company of all shares of restricted stock that vested during Mr. Maw's employment with the Company. In the course of executing this forfeiture, Mr. Maw and the Company discovered that, whereas Section 3(e) of the Employment Agreement correctly provides for the option of returning the shares awarded on February 3, 2011, it inadvertently omitted that same option for the shares awarded on February 23, 2010. On August 3, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to Section 3(e) to correct the error and conform Section 3(e) of the Employment Agreement to the intention of the parties to the agreement. A copy of the Amendment to Section 3 is attached to this current report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
