Ichor Holdings, Ltd. (the “Company”) hereby amends its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 5, 2019 relating to the transition of Mr. Rohrs to Executive Chairman and the promotion of Mr. Andreson to CEO. On November 12, 2019 (the “Approval Date”), the Compensation, Nominating, and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved terms relating to Mr. Rohrs’ transition and Mr. Andreson’s promotion, and the Company is filing this amendment on Form 8-K/A for the purpose of providing such terms.

Item 5.02  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

In connection with Mr. Rohrs’ transition to Executive Chairman, he will enter into a new agreement (the “Rohrs Agreement”) with an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Ichor”) for a term of one year, with an option to extend on a yearly basis, pursuant to which he will be entitled to (i) a base salary of $300,000 per year, (ii) an annual incentive target bonus of 100% of his base salary, (iii) a one-time lump sum cash payment equal to $1,800,000, (iv) the immediate acceleration of vesting of his outstanding equity-based incentive awards that would have vested over the 18 months immediately following the Approval Date, (v) a grant of restricted stock units totaling a grant date fair value of $500,000, and (vi) the continuation of vesting of his remaining outstanding equity-based incentive awards in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreements, as long as he remains an employee of Ichor.

In connection with Mr. Andreson’s promotion to CEO, he will enter into a new offer letter (the “Andreson Offer Letter”) with Ichor, pursuant to which he will be entitled to (i) an increase in base salary from $450,000 to $530,000 per year, (ii) an increase in the annual incentive target bonus from 75% to 85% of his base salary, and (iii) grants of equity-based incentive awards totaling a grant date fair value of $1,500,000 composed of 70% in restricted stock units and 30% in non-qualified stock options.

The foregoing descriptions of the Andreson Offer Letter and the Rohrs Agreement are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Andreson Offer Letter and the Rohrs Agreement, copies of which will be filed as exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ending December 27, 2019.
