Employment Agreement Amendments

On May 6, 2016, the Compensation Committee (the Compensation Committee) of the Board of Directors of BankUnited, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), approved amendments to the Employment Agreements dated February 2, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement Amendments”) by and between the Company and each of John A. Kanas and Rajinder P. Singh (each, an “Executive” and, together, the “Executives”), and the Executives entered into their respective Employment Agreement Amendments as of such date.

 The Employment Agreement Amendments provide for the elimination of the specified size of each Executive’s long-term incentive awards and instead provide for the Company to determine the grant date fair value of the Executive's long-term incentive awards, with the final value of each award to be determined by the Compensation Committee.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to each Executive’s Employment Agreement Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
