The foregoing items of business are more fully described in the Proxy Statement accompanying this notice.

PROXY STATEMENT

The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of SMITH-MIDLAND CORPORATION (the “Company”) for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Thursday, August 27, 2015, at 5:00 p.m. local time at Smith-Midland Corporation located at 5119 Catlett Road, Midland, Virginia 22728 and at any adjournment or adjournments thereof.

These proxy solicitation materials are first being mailed to stockholders of record on or about July 21, 2015, together with the Company’s Annual Report to Stockholders.

This proxy statement, form of proxy and the annual report are available at: http://www.edocumentview.com/SMID

Stockholders of record at the close of business on July 8, 2014 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof.  On or about the record date, 4,852,628 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”), were issued and outstanding.  The Company has no other outstanding voting securities.

Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote with respect to all matters submitted to Stockholders at the Annual Meeting.  A quorum for the Annual Meeting is a majority of the shares outstanding.  Abstentions and broker non-votes are each included in the determination of the number of shares present and voting for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present.  Broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because (1) the broker does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner and (2) the broker lacks discretionary authority to vote the shares. Brokers are prohibited from exercising discretionary authority on non-routine matters. Proposals one and two are considered non-routine matters and, therefore, brokers cannot exercise discretionary authority regarding these proposals for beneficial owners who have not returned proxies to the brokers (so-called “broker non-votes”).

Abstentions or broker non-votes or failures to vote will have no effect in the election of directors, who will be elected by a plurality of the affirmative votes cast.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote to approve the Smith-Midland 2015 Equity Incentive Plan will be required for approval. An abstention will be counted as a vote against this proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will not be considered in the tabulation of votes.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote to ratify the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as the Company’s independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2015 will be required for approval.  An abstention will be counted as a vote against this proposal.

An Annual Report, containing the Company’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, is being mailed to all Stockholders entitled to vote.

Execution of a proxy will not in any way affect a Stockholder’s right to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person.  The proxy may be revoked at any time before it is exercised by written notice to the Secretary prior to the Annual Meeting, or by giving to the Secretary a duly executed proxy bearing a later date than the proxy being revoked at any time before such proxy is voted, or by appearing at the Annual Meeting and voting in person.  The shares represented by all properly executed proxies received in time for the Annual Meeting will be voted as specified therein.  In the absence of a special choice, shares will be voted in favor of the election of Directors of those persons named in this Proxy Statement, in favor of the adoption of the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and in favor of the proposal to ratify and approve the selection of BDO USA, LLP as the independent auditors for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2015.

The Board of Directors knows of no other matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other matter should be presented at the Annual Meeting upon which a vote may be taken, such shares represented by all proxies received by the Board of Directors will be voted with respect thereto in accordance with the judgment of the persons named as attorneys in the

proxies.  The shares represented by all properly executed proxies received in time for the Annual Meeting will be voted as specified therein. In the absence of a special choice, shares will be voted in favor of the election of Directors of those persons named in this Proxy Statement, in favor of the adoption of the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and in favor of the ratification of BDO USA, LLP as the auditors for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Board of Directors knows of no matter to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting that would give rise to appraisal rights for dissenting stockholders.

Proposal No. 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Four Directors, constituting the entire Board of Directors, are to be elected at the Annual Meeting. Each Director of the Company is elected at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders and serves until his successor is elected and qualified.  Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of authorized Directors may be filled by a majority vote of Directors then remaining in office. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Shares represented by all proxies received by the Board of Directors and not so marked as to withhold authority to vote for an individual Director, or for all Directors, will be voted (unless one or more nominees are unable or unwilling to serve) for the election of the nominees named below.  The Board of Directors knows of no reason why any such nominee should be unwilling to serve, but if such should be the case, proxies will be voted for the election of some other person or for fixing the number of Directors at a lesser number.

The Board unanimously recommends that Stockholders vote FOR election of the four nominees for Director.

The following table sets forth certain information concerning each nominee for election as a Director of the Company:

Name	Age	Director Since	Position
Rodney I. Smith	76	1970	Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer
Ashley B. Smith	53	1994	President and Director
Wesley A. Taylor	67	1994	Vice President of Administration, Secretary and Director
G. E. "Nick" Borst	74	2013	Director

Background

The following is a brief summary of the background of each nominee for Director of the Company:

Rodney I. Smith. Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.  Rodney I. Smith co-founded the Company in 1960 and became its President and Chief Executive Officer in 1965.  He has served on the Board of Directors and has been its Chairman since 1970.  Mr. Smith is the principal developer and inventor of the Company’s proprietary and patented products.  He is the past President of the National Precast Concrete Association.  Mr. Smith has served on the Board of Trustees of Bridgewater College in Bridgewater, Virginia since 1986.  The Company believes that Mr. Smith’s extensive experience in the precast concrete products industry and his knowledge of the marketplace gives him the qualifications and skills necessary to serve in the capacity as the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Ashley B. Smith.  President and Director.  Ashley B. Smith has served as President of the Company since 2014 and as a Director since 1994.  He was Vice President of the Company from 1990 to 2014. Mr. Smith holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Bridgewater College.  Mr. Ashley B. Smith is the son of Mr. Rodney I. Smith.  The Company believes that Mr. Smith’s education, experience in the precast concrete industry and business experience give him the qualifications and skills necessary to serve in the capacity as a director.

Wesley A. Taylor. Vice President of Administration and Director.  Wesley A. Taylor has served as Vice President of Administration of the Company since 1989 and as a Director since 1994, and previously held positions as Controller and Director of Personnel and Administration.  Mr. Taylor holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Northwestern State University.  The Company believes that Mr. Taylor’s education, business experience and his extensive experience in the precast concrete industry gives him the qualifications and skills necessary to serve in the capacity as a director.

G. E. (Nick) Borst. Director. G.E. (Nick) Borst has served as a Director of the Company since 2013. Previously, Mr. Borst served as an advisory member of the Board of Directors of the Company since 2005. For more than the past five years, Mr. Borst has been engaged in the private practice of law, advising clients in corporate legal matters. Prior thereto, he served as a trial attorney with the federal government. Mr. Borst previously served as president of the Fauquier County Bar Association and as a three-year treasurer of the Fauquier County Chamber of Commerce. In private law practice, Mr. Borst advised clients on business organization and governance. Mr. Borst is also a co-founder and past president of Hospice of Fauquier County and is co-founder and long-time board member of Verdun Adventure Bound, an organization that provides experiential learning programs to over 2,000 young people a year. The Company believes that Mr. Borst's current and past business-related experience provides him with the knowledge and skills necessary to serve in the capacity as a director of the Company.

GENERAL INFORMATION RELATING TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Director Independence

Currently G.E. "Nick" Borst is the only independent director of the Company as determined under the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. The other Directors are not considered independent in view of their positions as executive officers of the Company.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors does not have standing Compensation, Nominating or Audit Committees or any committees performing similar functions at the current time due to the size and structure of the Company and that the Board is only composed of four members. Currently, compensation of executive officers, board advisors and directors of the Company, including, but not limited to, the grant of options to purchase the Common Stock pursuant to the Company's 2008 Stock Option Plan or other plans which may be established, is decided by the Board of Directors as a whole.

The Company believes that a standing Nominating Committee is not necessary or cost efficient for a company its size.  All directors participate in the consideration of director nominees.  The Company does not have a formal Nominating Committee Charter.  While the Board of Directors has received a small number of stockholder recommendations for consideration of director candidates, it has not received a sufficient amount to warrant the adoption of a formal policy in that regard, although it may consider doing so in the future. It is the Board’s intent to consider any stockholder nominees that may be put forth.  The Board has not identified any specific minimum qualifications or skills that it believes must be met by a nominee for director.  It is the intent of the Board to review from time to time the appropriate skills and characteristics of directors in the context of the current make-up of the Board and the requirements and needs of the Company at a given time. 

In selecting nominees for the Board, the Company considers the diversity of each candidate in regards to the anticipated needs of the Company as a whole so as to leverage the experience and education of each director in achieving the goals of the Company.

The Board of Directors met formally three times during 2014 and met informally on a number of occasions, voting on corporate actions, in some cases, by written consent.  All of the Company’s current directors attended all of the meetings of the Board of Directors in person.

With the exception of Rodney I. Smith and Ashley B. Smith, who are father and son, respectively, no Director or executive officer of the Company is related by blood, marriage, or adoption to any of the Company’s other Directors or executive officers. There are no related-party transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

Audit Committee

The Company currently does not have a standing Audit Committee and because the Company’s Bylaws require a minimum of two committee members, the entire Board of Directors now functions as the Audit Committee. The Company also does not have an Audit Committee Charter. The Board of Directors oversees all accounting and financial reporting processes and the audit of the Company’s financial statements. The Board is responsible for overseeing the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and the qualifications, independence, selection and performance of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Board of Directors has determined that the Board does not currently have a person serving on it who qualifies as a Financial Expert as defined by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board of Directors does not believe that the addition of such an expert would add anything meaningful to the Company at this

time given that its members have the sufficient knowledge and experience to fulfill the duties and obligations that an Audit Committee would have.

The Board of Directors has recommended that the audited financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year then ended.

Leadership Structure

We believe that the Company is better served by the combined Chairman/CEO type of leadership.  By having a strong single leader, a company of our size can adapt to market changes faster with fewer levels of decision makers.  It provides a cohesive vision and strategy for the Company and strong execution ability.  This type of leadership model helps assure a clear and direct line of communication to the Board of any risks, challenges or other key management issues and opportunities.

Risk Oversight

It is the responsibility of the Board to oversee the assets of the Company and to ensure that appropriate controls are in place to minimize risks associated with such assets.  While the Board is tasked with the responsibility to detect potential high level risks, management is tasked with managing risk on a daily basis.  Where possible, management, in conjunction with the Board, has defined high level risk controls to help mitigate the most significant risks to the Company.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors has adopted a Professional Code of Ethics as well as a Finance Code of Professional Conduct. The Professional Code of Ethics covers all employees of the Company and describes the policies and procedures for their ethical conduct. The Finance Code of Professional Conduct covers conduct in the practice of financial management and specifically relates to the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, Accounting Manager and other associates of the finance organization.

Communications Between Stockholders and the Board of Directors

Stockholders and other interested parties wishing to communicate with members of the Board of Directors should send a letter to the Secretary of the Company with instructions as to which director(s) is to receive the communication.  The Secretary will forward the written communication to each member of the Board of Directors identified by the stockholder or, if no individual director is identified, to all members of the Board of Directors. 

Director Attendance at Annual Meeting

The Company has not in the past required members of the Board of Directors to attend each annual meeting of the stockholders because the formal meetings have been attended by very few stockholders, and have generally been brief and procedural in nature.  All of the Company’s current directors, however, attended the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. The Board will continue to monitor stockholder interest and attendance at future meetings and re-evaluate this policy as appropriate.

Director Compensation

All Directors, whether employee or non-employee, receive $1,000 per meeting attended as compensation for their services as Directors and are reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their duties.   For the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, total payments made to all Directors were $13,000.

Proposal No. 2

PROPOSAL TO ADOPT THE SMITH-MIDLAND CORPORATION 2015 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Overview

The Board of Directors recommends that the Company’s stockholders approve the Smith-Midland 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), which the Board adopted on July 10, 2015, subject to stockholder approval. The general purpose of the Incentive Plan is to attract, motivate and retain selected employees, consultants and directors for the Company and our subsidiaries, to provide them with incentives and rewards for superior performance and to better align their interests with the interests of our stockholders. As of July 8, 2015, no Awards have been granted under the Incentive Plan.

The summary below of the principal features of the Incentive Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Summary of the Plan

 General. The Incentive Plan authorizes us to provide equity-based compensation in the form of (i) Options, (ii) Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Awards (“RSUs”), (iii) Other Share-Based Awards; and (iv) Performance Awards (collectively called “Awards”). Options granted under the Incentive Plan may be either “incentive stock options,” as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or nonqualified stock options, as determined by the Committee (as defined below).

 Number of Shares Authorized. The number of shares of common stock of the Company available for award under the Incentive Plan is 750,000 shares. Upon stockholder approval of the Incentive Plan, no further awards shall be made under the Company’s 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “Prior Plan”) and the Prior Plan shall remain in effect only so long as awards made thereunder shall remain outstanding. The last sales price of our common stock as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board System on July 8, 2015 was $2.22 per share.

If any Award is forfeited, expires, lapses or otherwise terminates without the issuance of shares of our common stock subject to such Award, such shares will again be available for future grant. In addition, any shares under the Incentive Plan that are used to satisfy award obligations under the plan of another entity that is acquired by the Company will not count against the remaining number of shares available. Finally, if there is any change in our corporate capitalization, the Committee may cancel and make substitutions of Awards or may adjust the number of shares available for award under the Incentive Plan, the number and kind of shares covered by Awards then outstanding under the Incentive Plan and the exercise price of outstanding Options.

Administration. The Compensation Committee (or any subcommittee thereof formed by the Compensation Committee) or the full Board during such times as no committee is appointed by the Board of Directors or during such times as the Board of Directors is acting in lieu of the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) will administer the Incentive Plan. Subject to the other provisions of the Incentive Plan, the Committee has the authority to:

● interpret the Incentive Plan;

● establish and amend rules and regulations relating to the Incentive Plan;

● select the participants and determine the type of Awards to be made to participants, the number of shares subject to Awards and the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations of Awards; and

● make all other determinations it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Incentive Plan.

To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, including Section 162(m) of the Code, or the rules of any or any national securities exchange on which the Company’s common stock is then traded, the Committee may delegate to (i) a committee of one or more directors any authority of the Committee under the Incentive Plan and (ii) one or more executive officers or a committee of executive officers the right to grant Awards to employees who are not directors or executive officers of the Company.

Eligibility. The Incentive Plan provides that Awards may be granted to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees.

Each Award granted under the Incentive Plan will be evidenced by a written award agreement between the participant and the Company, which will describe the Award and state the terms and conditions to which the Award is subject. The principal terms and conditions of each particular type of Award are described below.

The Awards Authorized Under the Incentive Plan

Options

An Option is the right to purchase shares of common stock for a specified period of time at a fixed price (the “exercise price”). Each Option agreement will specify the exercise price, the type of Option, the term of the Option and the date when the Option will become exercisable.

Exercise Price. The Committee will determine the exercise price of an Option at the time the Option is granted. The exercise price under an incentive stock option or nonqualified stock option will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of common stock on the date the Option is granted. However, any optionee who owns more than 10% of the combined voting

power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding common stock (a “10% Stockholder”) will not be eligible for the grant of an incentive stock option unless the exercise price of the incentive stock option is at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.

 Consideration. The means of payment for shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be specified in each Option agreement and generally may be made by cash or check, by tendering previously acquired shares of common stock, or, subject to approval by the Committee, by delivery of other consideration having a fair market value on the exercise date equal to the purchase price or by withholding shares of common stock underlying the Option being exercised, or by any combination of the foregoing methods.

Term of the Option. The term of an Option granted under the Incentive Plan will be no longer than ten years from the date of grant. In the case of an Option granted to a 10% Stockholder, the term of an incentive stock option will be for no more than five years from the date of grant.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Awards

An Award of Restricted Stock is a grant to the recipient of ownership of a specified number of shares of common stock which are subject to restrictions that lapse separately or in combination at such time or times as the Committee, in its discretion, determines. Each grant of Restricted Stock will specify the length of the restriction period and will include restrictions on transfer to third parties during the restriction period. Unless otherwise provided in the award agreement, the participant shall become a stockholder of the Company, with voting, dividend and other stockholder rights, with respect to the restricted stock awarded as of the date of grant.

Restricted Stock Units represents the right of the grantee of the RSU to receive from the Company a payment upon or after vesting of the RSU equal to the per share value of the common stock as of the date of grant, vesting date or other date determined by the Committee at the date of grant of the RSU. At the discretion of the Committee, RSUs may be settled by delivery of cash or shares, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. RSUs may entitle the participant to receive credits for dividend equivalents, but not voting or other rights as a stockholder.

Other Share-Based Awards

Other Share-Based Awards may be granted by the Committee, either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Incentive Plan, in the form and on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine.

Performance Awards

Awards of Performance Shares and Performance Cash may be made under the Incentive Plan. A Performance Share is a grant of a unit with a value equal to a designated number of shares of common stock. Performance Cash mean any cash incentives paid to the participant. A grant of Performance Shares or Performance Cash will vest and become payable to the participant upon the achievement during a specified performance period of performance objectives established by the Committee.

Performance objectives may be established on a company-wide basis; with respect to one or more subsidiaries, business units, divisions, department or functions; and in either absolute terms or relative to the performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple companies. Performance objectives, the number of units to which they pertain and the time and manner of payment of the Award, shall be specified in the Award Agreement.

The Committee may also condition the grant and vesting of a Restricted Stock Award, RSUs or an Other Share-Based Award on the achievement of performance objectives as described above.

General Provisions

 Vesting. Each grant of Performance Shares and Performance Cash will specify the performance objectives that must be achieved in order for payment to be made. Each grant of Options shall specify the length of service that must be achieved before it becomes exercisable. Each grant of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall specify the duration of the restriction period and any other conditions under which the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit would be forfeitable to the Company, including any applicable performance goals. Each grant may provide for the early exercise of rights or termination of a restriction or deferral period in the event of a Change in Control or similar transaction or event.

 Dividends/Ownership Rights. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, an Award of Restricted Stock entitles the participant to dividend, voting and other ownership rights during the restriction period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any dividends paid with respect to the Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same restrictions that apply to the underlying Award during the restriction period, unless otherwise provided by the Committee. A participant receiving a Restricted Stock Unit Award will not possess any rights of a stockholder with respect to such Award.

 Transferability of Awards. In general, during a participant’s lifetime, his or her Awards shall be exercisable only by the participant and shall not be transferable other than by will or laws of descent and distribution. However, the Committee may

provide for limited transfers of Awards, other than incentive stock options, to certain family members, trusts for the benefit of certain family members, or as charitable donations.

Termination of Employment or Consulting Services. The Committee may take actions which it believes equitable under the circumstances or in the best interest of the Company with respect to Awards that are not fully vested in the event of termination of employment by reason of death, disability, voluntary or involuntary termination of employment, or other termination or a leave of absence that is approved by the Committee, or in the event of hardship or other special circumstances that are approved by the Committee.

Award Deferrals and Dividend Equivalents. An Award Agreement may provide for the deferral of the payment of any Award. The recipient of any Award, other than an Option, may be entitled to receive, on a deferred basis, amounts of cash, stock or other property dividends on shares of common stock underlying the Award. Any dividends or dividend equivalents provided with respect to Performance Awards or Restricted Stock, RSUs or other Share-Based Awards that are subject to the attainment of performance goals will be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the underlying Awards.

Change in Control

Unless otherwise provided in the participant’s Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control in which the successor company assumes or replaces an Option, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award, Performance Award or Other Share-Based Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and continues the Award), if a participant’s employment with such successor company (or a subsidiary thereof) terminates for any reason other than Cause (as defined in an Award Agreement) within 24 months following a Change in Control (or such other period set forth in the Award Agreement): (i) Options outstanding as of the date of such termination of employment will immediately vest, become fully exercisable, and may thereafter be exercised for 24 months even if beyond original term, (ii) restrictions, limitations and other conditions on Restricted Stock and RSUs shall lapse and the Restricted Stock and RSUs shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested, (iii) all Performance Awards shall be considered to be earned and payable (pro rata), and any other restriction shall lapse and such Performance Awards shall be immediately settled or distributed, and (iv) the restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to any Other Share-Based Awards shall lapse, and such Other Share-Based Awards shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant. An Award shall be considered assumed or replaced if following the Change in Control the assumed or replacement award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each share of common stock subject to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration received in the transaction constituting a Change in Control by holders of the Company’s shares of common stock for each share held on the effective date of such transaction. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event of any Change in Control of the Company, to the extent the successor company does not assume or replace an Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and does not continue the Award): (i) those Options outstanding as of the date of the Change in Control that are not assumed or replaced shall immediately vest and become fully exercisable, (ii) restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to Restricted Stock and RSUs that are not assumed or replaced shall lapse and the Restricted Stock and RSUs shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested, (iii) all Performance Awards shall be considered to be earned and payable (pro rata), and any other restriction shall lapse and such Performance Awards shall be immediately settled or distributed, and (iv) the restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to any Other Share-Based Awards shall lapse, and such Other Share-Based Awards shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its discretion, may determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company, each Option outstanding shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the participant, and/or that each Option shall be cancelled and in consideration for such cancellation each participant shall receive, with respect to each share of common stock subject to such Option, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of such share immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control over the exercise price per share of such Option. Such amount shall be payable in cash, in one or more kinds of stock or property or in a combination thereof, as the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine; provided, that if the exercise price per share of such Option equals or exceeds the fair market value of such shares of common stock immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control, then such Option may be canceled without the payment of consideration.

A “Change in Control” is defined in the Incentive Plan as occurrence of any of the following events: (a) (i) sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person or entity or group of persons or entities which is not an affiliate of Rodney Smith or Ashley Smith (who are, as of the date of adoption of the Incentive Plan, executive officers of the Company); (ii) any person or entity or group of persons or entities (other a group consisting solely of affiliates of Rodney Smith or Ashley Smith) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13(d)-3 and 13(d)-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the voting stock of the Company then outstanding or (iii) a merger or consolidation pursuant to which any person or entity or group of persons or entities (other than a group consisting solely of affiliates of Rodney Smith or Ashley Smith) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in clause

(ii) above) of more than 50% of the voting stock of the Company or the surviving or resulting entity immediately following the consummation of such transaction; or (b) consummation of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Effective Date, Amendments, and Termination of the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan will be effective as of the date of approval by our Board, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders. The Incentive Plan terminates automatically on July 9, 2025, the tenth anniversary of its adoption by the Board of Directors.

Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following discussion is a summary of certain federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to participants in the Incentive Plan. The discussion is for general informational purposes only and does not purport to address specific federal income tax considerations that may apply to a participant based on his or her particular circumstances, nor does it address state or local income tax or other tax considerations that may be relevant to a participant.

PARTICIPANTS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF PARTICIPATING IN THE INCENTIVE PLAN, AS WELL AS WITH RESPECT TO ANY APPLICABLE STATE OR LOCAL INCOME TAX OR OTHER TAX CONSIDERATIONS.

 Nonqualified Options

A participant realizes no taxable income and the Company is not entitled to a deduction when a non-qualified option is granted. Upon exercise of a nonqualified option, a participant will realize ordinary income equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares received over the exercise price of the non-qualified option, and, subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. A participant’s tax basis in the shares of common stock received upon exercise of a nonqualified option will be equal to the fair market value of such shares on the exercise date, and the participant’s holding period for such shares will begin at that time. Upon sale of the shares of common stock received upon exercise of a non-qualified option, the participant will realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending upon whether the shares have been held for more than one year. The amount of such gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount realized in connection with the sale of the shares, and the participant’s tax basis in such shares.

          Under the Incentive Plan, non-qualified options may, at the option of the Committee, be exercised in whole or in part with shares of common stock or Restricted Stock held by the participant. Payment in common stock or Restricted Stock will be treated as a tax-free exchange of the shares surrendered for an equivalent number of shares of common stock received, and the equivalent number of shares received will have a tax basis equal to the tax basis of the surrendered shares. In the case of payment in Restricted Stock, however, the equivalent number of shares of common stock received shall be subject to the same risks of forfeiture or restrictions on transfer as those that applied to the Restricted Stock surrendered. The fair market value of shares of common stock received in excess of the number of shares surrendered will be treated as ordinary income and such shares will have a tax basis equal to their fair market value on the date of the exercise of the nonqualified option.

Incentive Stock Options

A participant realizes no taxable income and the Company is not entitled to a deduction when an incentive stock option is granted or exercised. Provided the participant meets the applicable holding period requirements for the shares received upon exercise of an incentive stock option (two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of exercise), gain or loss realized by a participant upon sale of the shares received upon exercise will be long-term capital gain or loss, and the Company will not be entitled to a deduction. If, however, the participant disposes of the shares before meeting the applicable holding period requirements (a “disqualifying disposition”), the participant will realize ordinary income at that time equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date over the exercise price of the incentive stock option, and, subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction for the taxable year in which the disqualifying disposition occurred. Any amount realized upon a disqualifying disposition in excess of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date of the incentive stock option will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as long-term capital gain if the shares have been held for more than one year. If the sales price is less than the sum of the exercise price of the incentive stock option and the amount included in ordinary income due to the disqualifying disposition, this amount will be treated as a short-term or long-term capital loss, depending upon whether the shares have been held for more than one year. Notwithstanding the above, individuals who are subject to Alternative Minimum Tax may recognize ordinary income upon exercise of an incentive stock option.

Under the Incentive Plan, incentive stock options may, at the option of the Committee, be exercised in whole or in part with shares of common stock or Restricted Stock held by the participant. Such an exercise will be treated as a tax-free exchange of the shares of common stock or Restricted Stock surrendered (assuming the surrender of the previously-owned shares does not constitute a disqualifying disposition of those shares) for an equivalent number of shares of common stock received, and the equivalent number of shares received will have a tax basis equal to the tax basis of the surrendered shares. In the case of payment in Restricted Stock, however, the equivalent number of shares of common stock received shall be subject

to the same risks of forfeiture or restrictions on transfer as those that applied to the Restricted Stock surrendered. Shares of common stock received in excess of the number of shares surrendered will have a tax basis of zero.

Restricted Stock

Restricted Stock received pursuant to awards will be considered subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture for federal income tax purposes. If a participant who receives such Restricted Stock does not make the election described below, the participant realizes no taxable income upon the receipt of Restricted Stock and the Company is not entitled to a deduction at such time. When the forfeiture restrictions with respect to the Restricted Stock lapse the participant will realize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares at that time, and, subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. A participant’s tax basis in Restricted Stock will be equal to their fair market value when the forfeiture restrictions lapse, and the participant’s holding period for the shares will begin when the forfeiture restrictions lapse. Upon sale of the shares, the participant will realize short-term or long-term gain or loss, depending upon whether the shares have been held for more than one year at the time of sale. Such gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale of the shares and the tax basis of the shares in the participant’s hands.

      Participants receiving Restricted Stock may make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to the shares. By making a Section 83(b) election, the participant elects to realize compensation income with respect to the shares when the shares are received rather than at the time the forfeiture restrictions lapse. The amount of such compensation income will be equal to the fair market value of the shares when the participant receives them (valued without taking the restrictions into account), and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction at that time. By making a Section 83(b) election, the participant will realize no additional compensation income with respect to the shares when the forfeiture restrictions lapse, and will instead recognize gain or loss with respect to the shares when they are sold. The participant’s tax basis in the shares with respect to which a Section 83(b) election is made will be equal to their fair market value when received by the participant, and the participant’s holding period for such shares begins at that time. If, however, the shares are subsequently forfeited to the Company, the participant will not be entitled to claim a loss with respect to the shares to the extent of the income realized by the participant upon the making of the Section 83(b) election. To make a Section 83(b) election, a participant must file an appropriate form of election with the Internal Revenue Service and with his or her employer, each within 30 days after shares of restricted stock are received, and the participant must also attach a copy of his or her election to his or her federal income tax return for the year in which the shares are received.

      Generally, during the restriction period, dividends and distributions paid with respect to restricted stock will be treated as compensation income (not dividend income) received by the participant. Dividend payments received with respect to shares of restricted stock for which a Section 83(b) election has been made will be treated as dividend income, assuming the Company has adequate current or accumulated earnings and profits.

Other Share-Based Awards

The tax consequences of receiving Other Share-Based Awards will generally be governed by the principles set forth in Sections 61, 83 and 451 of the Code. These tax consequences may vary depending upon the terms and conditions of such awards, but should generally be analogous to the tax consequences for Stock Options, Restricted Stock, and Performance Cash, as described above, as the case may be. Accordingly, in most cases, an Other Share-Based Award, if payable in the form of shares of common stock, will be subject to ordinary income taxation when the forfeiture restrictions, if any, in respect of any such award lapse and the shares are transferred to the participant, whichever occurs later and, if an Other Share-Based Award is payable in cash, such award will be taxable upon the actual or constructive receipt of any such cash payment. Subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company will be entitled to a corresponding tax deduction. A participant’s tax basis in any shares received will generally be equal to the fair market value of such shares when the forfeiture restrictions lapse or the shares are transferred, whichever occurs later. The participant’s holding period for the shares will generally begin when the forfeiture restrictions lapse or when the shares are transferred, whichever occurs later. Upon sale of the shares, the participant will realize short-term or long-term gain or loss, depending upon whether the shares have been held for more than one year at the time of sale. Such gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale of the shares and the tax basis of the shares in the participant’s hands.

Performance Cash and Performance Shares

A participant realizes no taxable income and the Company is not entitled to a deduction when Performance Cash or Performance Shares are awarded. When the Performance Cash and Performance Shares vest and become payable upon the achievement of the performance objectives, the participant will realize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares received minus any amount paid for the shares, and, subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. A participant’s tax basis in shares of common stock received upon payment will be equal to the fair market value of such shares when the participant receives them. Upon sale of the shares, the participant will realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending upon whether the shares have been held for more than one year at the time of

sale. Such gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale of the shares and the tax basis of the shares in the participant’s hands.

 Section 162(m) Limitations

Section 162(m) of the Code limits the deductibility of compensation paid to certain executive officers, unless the compensation is “performance-based compensation” and meets certain other requirements outlined in Code Section 162(m) and related regulations. If Awards to such persons are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation,” the Incentive Plan provides that no participant may be granted (i) Options during any 12-month period with respect to more than 200,000 shares or (ii) Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Unit Awards, Performance Awards and/or Other Share-Based Awards in any 12-month period that are intended to comply with the performance-based exception under Code Section 162(m) and are denominated in shares with respect to more than 200,000 Shares. In addition to the foregoing, the maximum dollar value that may be earned by any participant in any 12-month period with respect to Performance Awards that are intended to comply with the performance-based exception under Code Section 162(m) and are denominated in cash is $5,000,000.

Withholding

The Company is entitled to deduct from the payment of any Award all applicable income and employment taxes required by federal, state, local or foreign law to be withheld, or may require the participant to pay such withholding taxes to the Company as a condition of receiving payment of the Award. The Committee may allow a participant to satisfy his or her withholding obligations by directing the Company to retain the number of shares necessary to satisfy the withholding obligation, or by delivering shares held by the participant to the Company in an amount necessary to satisfy the withholding obligation.

New Plan Benefits

Because benefits under the Incentive Plan are discretionary and will depend on the actions of the Committee and the value of shares of common stock of the Company, it is not possible to determine the benefits that will be received if stockholders approve the Incentive Plan.

Vote Required

Approval of the Smith-Midland 2015 Equity Incentive Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting.    

The Board of Directors recommends that Stockholders vote FOR the Adoption of the Smith-Midland 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change in Control Arrangements.

The Company entered into a four-year Employment Agreement with Rodney I. Smith, its current Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, effective as of September 30, 2002.  The term of employment automatically renews commencing on the date one year after the effective date, and on an annual basis thereafter, for an additional one year, unless earlier terminated or not renewed as provided for therein.  The agreement provides for an annual base salary of $99,000 (“Base Salary”), which will be reviewed at least annually and adjusted from time to time at the determination of the Board of Directors.  It also provides for an annual royalty fee of $99,000 payable as consideration for Mr. Smith’s assignment to the Company of all of his rights, title and interest in and to the Patents (as defined in the agreement).  Payment of the royalty continues only for as long as the Company is using the inventions underlying the Patents.  Mr. Smith is also entitled to performance-based bonus as determined by the Board each calendar year.

Mr. Smith’s employment agreement provides further that if Mr. Smith (i) voluntarily leaves the employ of the Company within six months of his becoming aware of a Change of Control (as defined in the agreement) of the Company, then he shall be entitled to receive a lump sum amount equal to three times the five-year average of his combined total annual compensation, which includes the Base Salary and bonus, less one dollar ($1.00), and certain other unpaid accrued amounts as of the date of his termination, or (ii) is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in the agreement) or leaves the Company with Good Reason (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Smith shall be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to three times the combined Base Salary and bonus paid during the immediately preceding calendar year, and such other unpaid accrued amounts. In any of such cases, the Company will provide Mr. Smith with certain Company fringe benefits for two years, subject to certain conditions as provided for in the agreement, and all of Mr. Smith’s unvested options to purchase Company stock shall become fully vested and exercisable on the date of termination. Mr. Smith will be entitled to exercise all such options for three years from the date of termination. The Company will have no further obligations to Mr. Smith, other than with respect to the payment of royalties.

In the event Mr. Smith’s employment by the Company is terminated as a result of Mr. Smith’s (i) death, his estate shall be entitled to a lump sum payment of one times the combined Base Salary and bonus, and certain other accrued and unpaid amounts, or (ii) disability, Mr. Smith shall be entitled to Base Salary and bonus for a period of one year commencing with the date of termination, and all other unpaid accrued amounts.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) (“Section 16(a)”) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires executive officers and Directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of the Company’s Common Stock to file initial reports of ownership on Form 3 and reports of changes in ownership on Form 4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and any national securities exchange on which the Corporation’s securities are registered.

Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company and written representations from the executive officers and Directors, the Company believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its executive officers, Directors and greater than ten per cent (10%) beneficial owners were satisfied during 2014 except that G.E. “Nick” Borst was late in filing his Form 3.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE 2016 ANNUAL MEETING

Pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8, in order to be included in proxy material for next year’s annual meeting, Stockholders’ proposed resolutions must be received by the Company no later than March 17, 2016.  In addition, the by-laws of the Company require that we be given advance notice of stockholder nominations for election to the Board of Directors and of other matters which stockholders wish to present for action at an annual meeting of stockholders.  The required notice must be delivered to the Secretary of the Company at our principal offices not less than 60 days and not more than 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders.  These requirements are separate from and in addition to the SEC requirements that a stockholder must meet in order to have a stockholder proposal included in the Company’s proxy statement.

Pursuant to our by-laws, if notice of any stockholder proposal is received earlier than May 30, 2016 or after June 28, 2016, then the notice will be considered untimely and we are not required to present such proposal at the Annual Meeting to be held in 2016.  If the Board of Directors chooses to present a proposal submitted after June 28, 2016 at next year’s Annual Meeting, then the persons named in proxies solicited by the Board of Directors for such Annual Meeting may exercise discretionary voting power with respect to such proposal.
