Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;


           Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
           Officers.

(e) On May 14, 2020, Nucor Corporation (the "Company") held its 2020 annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). At the Annual Meeting, the Company's stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the Nucor Corporation 2014 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2014 Plan"). The amendment and restatement of the 2014 Plan was adopted by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") on February 17, 2020, subject to stockholder approval. Upon stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting, the 2014 Plan, as amended and restated, became effective as of that date.

The Company adopted and established the 2014 Plan effective as of January 1, 2014, and the 2014 Plan was subsequently approved by the Company's stockholders at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. The amendment and restatement of the 2014 Plan includes the following changes: (i) authorizes an additional 6 million shares of the Company's common stock for award under the 2014 Plan, (ii) extends the term of the 2014 Plan from December 31, 2023 to February 16, 2030, (iii) updates the provisions of the 2014 Plan applicable to performance-based awards in response to recent changes to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and (iv) imposes an annual limit of $750,000 on the aggregate cash and equity compensation that may be paid to a non-employee director of the Company.

The 2014 Plan, as amended and restated, authorizes a variety of types of equity-based awards to key employees (including the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer and other named executive officers) and non-employee directors of the Company, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units.

The foregoing description of the amendment and restatement of the 2014 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2014 Plan, as amended and restated, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference. For a more complete description of the amendment and restatement of the 2014 Plan, please refer to the discussion under "Proposal 4" in the Company's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2020 (the "2020 Proxy Statement").
