On February 19, 2024, the Compensation and Organization Committee of the Board of Directors of Rogers Corporation (the “Company”) resolved to grant performance-based restricted stock unit awards to Colin Gouveia, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Ram Mayampurath, the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, that may be earned based on the achievement of a net revenue goal, as part of their annual refresh equity grants (the “Revenue Grants”). The Revenue Grants are designed to vest at the end of 2025 contingent upon the Company’s achievement of net revenue during the 2025 calendar year. The vesting of the Revenue Grants is also generally contingent on the executive’s continued employment through the end of 2025, with provision for accelerated vesting on certain qualifying events. The number of performance-based restricted stock units subject to each Revenue Grant, assuming a “target” (100%) level of performance is achieved, is 8,520 for Mr. Gouveia and 4,260 for Mr. Mayampurath. The vesting range for these units is from 0% to 200% of such target number, based upon the Company’s net revenue performance during 2025. The executives also received performance-based restricted stock unit awards that may be earned based on a relative shareholder return metric over a three-year period, as they have in past years. The above description of the Revenue Grants is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreements, a form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto. The description is qualified in its entirety by these agreements. Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
