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

(b) On December 7, 2022, PBF Energy Inc. (the “Company”) announced the appointment of Karen B. Davis as Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective January 1, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), to serve until such time as her successor is appointed, or until her earlier resignation or removal. From December 21, 2022 until the Effective Date, Thomas Nimbley, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, will serve as the principal financial officer of the Company.
Ms. Davis most recently served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Western Refining, Inc. and its affiliated entities, Western Refining Logistics LP and Northern Tier Energy, LP, through May 2017. During her career, Ms. Davis has served in various chief financial officer and financial reporting officer positions with various public and private companies throughout the United States. Ms. Davis, age 66, currently serves on the Company’s Board of Directors, including as Chairwoman of the Audit Committee. She will resign as a director effective as of December 31, 2022 and will continue to be paid as a director through that date. Ms. Davis is not a party to any transaction with the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Pursuant to the terms of an offer letter between Ms. Davis and the Company, beginning the Effective Date, Ms. Davis will receive a salary of $13,125 per week (approx. $52,500 on a monthly basis) in her role of Chief Financial Officer, less required deductions and tax withholdings and prorated for partial weeks. Ms. Davis has not been granted any equity awards. She will be eligible to participate in the Company’s health and welfare benefits program in connection with her interim role. The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the letter agreement between Ms. Davis and the Company, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Agreement.
(e) Effective December 2, 2022 (the “Grant Date”), the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved grants of long-term incentive awards to the Company’s “named executive officers” (as defined in Item 402(a)(3) of Regulation S-K). The grants were made under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, (as amended, the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and included awards of (i) restricted shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (“Common Stock”), with the form of the applicable agreement attached as Exhibit 10.2 to this Form 8-K, (ii) performance share units for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025 (the “Performance Period”), payable in shares of Common Stock, the amounts of which will range from zero to 200 percent of the number of performance share units granted based on the Company’s achievement of prescribed TSR rankings relative to its peers during the Performance Period plus additional shares of Common Stock may be awarded at vesting with respect to the computed value of dividend equivalents accrued during such performance measurement periods and (iii) performance units with a target value of $1.00 per unit payable in cash at the end of the Performance Period, the amount of which will range from zero to 200 percent of the target value based on the Company’s achievement of prescribed TSR rankings relative to its peers during the Performance Period. The performance share units and the performance units will vest on December 31, 2025, in each case subject to forfeiture or acceleration under certain circumstances set forth in the applicable award agreement, the forms of which agreements are attached as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4 to this Form 8-K.
