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

On November 12, 2019, the Board of Directors of P. H. Glatfelter Company (the “Company”) approved a retention award (the “Retention Award”) of 110,132 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to Dante C. Parrini, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, effective November 13, 2019 (the “Grant Date”).  Each RSU represents, once vested, one share of common stock of the Company.  The RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date, subject to Mr. Parrini’s continued employment through the vesting date, although vesting would accelerate upon his death or disability. In the event of a change in control, a double trigger provision would accelerate vesting if Mr. Parrini is terminated without cause or resigns with good reason, and certain other provisions apply if the Company is not the surviving entity.

The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Retention Award is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restricted Stock Award Certificate, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
