(e)                                  On November 11, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of Bruker Corporation (the “Company”) approved one-time cash incentive awards to Juergen Srega, President, Bruker CALID Group and one of the Company’s named executive officers, in the aggregate amount of $344,933 to be payable immediately.

 

The Company recommended the awards to Mr. Srega pursuant to special incentive plans established by the Company to recognize the contributions of certain management and operations personnel of the Bruker CALID Group’s Chemical and Applied Markets (“CAM”) division to the successful closing of previously announced divestitures of certain assets of the CAM division’s ICP-MS and GC/GC-SQ-MS businesses. Amounts payable under these incentive plans were based on the amount of proceeds from the respective asset sale and management’s assessment of individual contributions to the transaction. The one-time cash incentive awards to Mr. Srega approved by the Compensation Committee consisted of an award in the amount of $245,969 relating to the ICP-MS divestiture and an award in the amount of $98,964 relating to the GC/GC-SQ-MS divestiture.
