On March 31, 2008, the MasTec, Inc. (the “Company”) board of directors adopted the MasTec Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) effective June 1, 2008. Certain management and highly compensated employees of the Company, including the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and the Company’s other named executive officers, are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is intended to provide this group of employees with an opportunity on a voluntary basis to defer compensation without regard to the legal limits imposed on the Company’s qualified 401(k) plan. Under the Plan, participants are allowed to defer up to 50% of their base salary and 100% of their bonus in any given year. The Company, in its sole discretion, may, but is not required to, make a Company contribution to any participant’s account under the Plan. Such Company contributions may be smaller or larger than the amount credited to any other participant in any given year. Company contributions will be determined by the Company’s board or the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. Participants may obtain distributions from the Plan only on termination of employment at which time the distribution will be fully taxable to the employee. Eligible employees are permitted to elect to have the value of their accounts under the Plan measured as if those accounts were invested in any of the various investment options available under the Plan. The foregoing description of the Plan is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Plan which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
