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

(e) On March 20, 2017, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of Ducommun Incorporated (the “Company”) awarded performance stock units to the executive officers of the Company. The performance stock units generally vest at the end of the three-year performance period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019 (the “Performance Period”) in amounts from 0% to 250% of the target units depending on the Company’s performance relative to two performance metrics: (i) the diluted earnings per share of the Company for each year of the Performance Period, subject to certain adjustments (the “EPS Metric”), and (ii) the relative total shareholder return during the Performance Period of the Company’s stock compared to the stocks of the companies in the Russell 2000 Index at the beginning of the Performance Period (the “TSR Metric”). The number of performance stock units vesting is calculated as follows: (i) 0 to 200% of the target units may be earned based on the EPS Metric, and (ii) the number of units earned based on the EPS Metric is then multiplied by a number between 0.75 and 1.25 based on the TSR Metric. Upon vesting, one share of common stock of the Company will be issued for each vested performance stock unit.
