Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 29, 2012, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Summer Infant, Inc. (the “Company”) elected Carol Bramson to fill an existing vacancy on the Board, effective July 1, 2012. The Board has not yet determined on which Board committees, if any, Ms. Bramson will serve.
As an independent director, Ms. Bramson will be compensated for her service as provided under the Board’s existing director compensation program, including an annual cash retainer fee of $50,000 (prorated for 2012), per meeting cash fees, and an annual stock award equal in value to $30,000, granted on the date of the Company’s annual stockholder meeting. She will also be entitled to reimbursement for travel and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with attendance at Board and Board committee meetings. In addition, Ms. Bramson received a restricted stock grant equal in value to $30,000 on July 1, the date of her election, or 9,146 shares, that vests in equal annual installments over a four-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
Ms. Bramson was not selected as a director pursuant to any arrangements or understandings with the Company or with any other person, and there are no related party transactions between Ms. Bramson and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. On July 3, 2012, we issued a press release announcing Ms. Bramson’s election, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
