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

(e) On September 28, 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. (the “Company”), adopted a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) which provides the Company’s non-employee directors, executive officers and a select group of employees of the Company and its subsidiaries with the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of a portion of salary, bonuses, director fees, and certain equity awards made under the Company’s long-term incentive plan. The Plan also allows the Company to make discretionary contributions to participant accounts that may be subject to one or more vesting schedules. Participant contributions, excluding equity awards subject to vesting conditions, will be fully vested at all times. Distributions of participant accounts will be made following a participant’s separation of service, death, retirement, unforeseeable emergency, change-in-control of the Company, or as of a future payment date specified by the participant. In accordance with the terms of the Plan, distributions will generally be paid in a single lump sum, unless the participant elects another form of payment permitted under the Plan, and in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The above summary of the Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the deferred compensation plan, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2015.
