Appointment of General Counsel and Senior Vice President of Human Resources

As previously disclosed on May 19, 2026, Christopher P. Litterio, General Counsel, Secretary, and Senior Vice President of Human Resources, informed UFP Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), that he plans to retire from the Company after a period of transition. On June 4, 2026, the Company announced that it had appointed Ryan Stafford as the Company’s General Counsel, Senior Vice President of Human Resources, and Secretary, effective June 4, 2026.

Mr. Stafford, age 58, served as Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer, Corporate Secretary, and head of Mergers & Acquisitions at Littelfuse, Inc. (Nasdaq: LFUS), a global manufacturer of electrical protection components. Mr. Stafford joined Littelfuse in 2007 as General Counsel and Vice President of Human Resources, later advancing to Senior Vice President and Chief Legal and Human Resources from 2014 to 2021. In 2021, he was named Executive Vice President, Mergers & Acquisitions and Chief Legal Officer, where he led the company’s acquisition strategy. Prior to Littelfuse, Mr. Stafford held senior legal and operational roles at Tyco International Ltd., including Vice President & General Counsel for Tyco Engineered Products & Services and Vice President of China Operations for the segment. Mr. Stafford began his legal career as an associate at Sulloway & Hollis, a New Hampshire law firm. Mr. Stafford earned a Bachelor of Arts in History and German from Bowdoin College and a Juris Doctor from the University of Maine School of Law.

Pursuant to Mr. Stafford’s employment offer letter (the “Employment Offer Letter”), Mr. Stafford will receive a base salary of $400,000 and is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus with a target opportunity equal to 50% of his base salary. As discussed in more detail below, at a meeting on June 4, 2026, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) approved Mr. Stafford’s 2026 cash bonus plan.

The Employment Offer Letter also provides that Mr. Stafford is eligible to receive annual equity awards commensurate with his position, subject to annual approval by the Compensation Committee. As further discussed below, at its June 4, 2026 meeting, the Compensation Committee approved an annual equity award for Mr. Stafford with an aggregate grant-date value of $650,000, 50% of which was granted in the form of restricted stock units and 50% of which was granted in the form of performance share awards (the “Stafford Grant”).

Other than the Employment Offer Letter, there is no arrangement or understanding with any person pursuant to which Mr. Stafford is being appointed as the Company’s General Counsel, Senior Vice President of Human Resources, and Secretary. There are no family relationships between Mr. Stafford and any director, executive officer, or nominees thereof of the Company. There are no related party transactions between the Company and Mr. Stafford that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

The foregoing description of the Employment Offer Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 5.02 by reference.

Stock Unit and Performance Share Awards

As previously disclosed, in connection with the appointment of Mitchell C. Rock as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee approved Mr. Rock’s employment offer, which provided that he would be eligible to receive a one-time grant of $650,000 worth of restricted stock units, subject to a three-year vesting period to be awarded upon appointment as Chief Executive Officer.

At its June 4, 2026 meeting, the Compensation Committee instead granted Mr. Rock $650,000 worth of stock unit awards, as further disclosed below. Also at its June 4, 2026 meeting, the Compensation Committee approved each of the Stafford Grant and the Lataille Grant (as defined below).

Subject to the terms of the Company’s 2003 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “2003 Incentive Plan”) and the stock unit award agreement and the performance share agreement, as applicable, evidencing each such award, each stock unit award and performance share award provides the recipient with the right to receive one share of common stock of the Company. The Compensation Committee also approved a grant to Ronald J. Lataille of 4,454 stock unit awards (the “Lataille Grant”), representing $1 million worth of stock unit awards. Fifty percent of the awards will vest on June 5, 2028, and the remaining 50% will vest on March 30, 2029, in each case pursuant to the terms of a separate form of stock unit award agreement. In the event of termination of Mr. Lataille’s Continuous Status as an employee as a result of termination by the Company without Cause or by Mr. Lataille for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in Mr. Lataille’s stock unit award agreement), the SUAs which would have vested following such termination shall continue to vest as if such termination shall not have taken place. Recipients of the stock unit awards and the performance share awards will have no rights as stockholders of the Company in respect thereof, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends, until and to the extent any applicable performance objectives have been satisfied, such stock unit awards have vested, and the issuance of the shares of common stock in respect of the stock unit awards has been appropriately evidenced.
