ITEM 8.01. Other Events.
On March 6, 2014, Mr. Jon P. Vrabely, President and Chief Executive Officer of Huttig Building Products, Inc. (the Company), adopted a stock trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under Rule 10b5-1, directors, officers and other employees who are not in possession of material non-public information may adopt a pre-arranged plan or contract for the sale of Company securities under specified conditions and at specified times. Using these 10b5-1 plans, individuals can gradually diversify their investment portfolios, spread stock trades out over an extended period of time to reduce market impact and avoid concerns about transactions occurring at a time when they might possess material non-public information.
Over the past several years Mr. Vrabely has received Company restricted stock grants as a significant component of his total compensation program. As a result, to diversify his portfolio, Mr. Vrabely has decided to convert a portion of his equity holdings to cash through the use of a 10b5-1 plan.
Any transactions under Mr. Vrabelys plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 4 and Form 144 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission when due.
