Exhibit 10.2

WELLMAN, INC.

Fourth Amended and Restated

Management Incentive Compensation Plan for the Executive Group

			
	ARTICLE I	 	NAME

1.1 The Plan shall be known as the “Wellman, Inc. Management Incentive Compensation Plan for the
Executive Group.”

			
	ARTICLE II	 	STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

2.1 The purpose of the Plan is to provide a system of incentive compensation that will promote
the maximization of shareholder value over the long-term. In order to align management incentives
with shareholder interests, this Plan will tie incentive compensation to (i) an EBITDA based return
on assets and (ii) certain performance goals. Both of these are designed to reward management for
taking appropriate actions to increase shareholder value.

			
	ARTICLE III	 	DEFINITIONS

3.1 Plan Year means the fiscal year of the Company which is the calendar year.

3.2 Effective Date means (a) January 1, 1992 with respect to the original Plan, (b) January 1,
1999 with respect to the amended and restated Plan, and (c) January 1, 2001 with respect to the
second amended and restated Plan, (d) January 1, 2005 with respect to the third amended and
restated Plan, and (e) July 1, 2007 with respect to the fourth amended and restated Plan.

3.3 Committee means the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Wellman, Inc. or any
successor committee.

3.4 Cause means, when used with respect to the termination of the employment of the Executive by
the Company, termination due to (a) an act or acts of personal dishonesty taken by the Executive
and intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of the Executive at the expense of the
Company; (b) the Executive’s continued failure to substantially perform his employment duties
(other than any such failure resulting from the Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental
illness) which are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the Executive’s part and which are not
remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from the Company; or (c)
conviction of, or a plea of guilty or no contest by, the Executive to a crime that constitutes a
felony involving moral turpitude. No act or failure to act on the part of the Executive shall be
considered “willful”

 

 

unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable
belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company.

3.5 Change of Control means:

(i) The acquisition (whether by tender offer, exchange offer or other business
combinations or by the purchase of shares or other securities, and whether in a single
transaction or multiple transactions), by any Person or group (within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) of beneficial ownership (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of either the
then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company
Common Stock”) or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities
of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Company
Voting Securities”), provided, however, that any acquisition by the Company or its
subsidiaries, or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or its
subsidiaries, or any corporation with respect to which, following such acquisition,
more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such
corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of
such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then
beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities immediately prior to
such acquisition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership, immediately
prior to such acquisition, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting
Securities, as the case may be, shall not constitute a Change of Control and provided
further, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement the Convertible Preferred
Stock shall be considered Company Voting Securities based on the equivalent number of
common shares that could be voted at that time; or

(ii) Individuals who, as of January 1, 2007, constitute the Board (the
“Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority
of the Board, provided that any individual becoming a director subsequent
to January 1, 2007 who is elected by the Company’s shareholders or was
approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising
the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a
member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such
individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an
actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the

 

 

directors of the Board (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A
promulgated under the Exchange Act); or

(iii) Approval by the stockholders of the Company of (x) a reorganization,
merger or consolidation, in each case, with respect to which all or
substantially all of the Persons who were the respective beneficial owners
of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities
immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not,
following such reorganization, merger or consolidation, beneficially own,
directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then
outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the
then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting
from such reorganization, merger or consolidation, or (y) a complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or (z) the sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in one
transaction or series of related transactions.

(iv) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if an event that
would, but for this paragraph, constitute a Change of Control results from or arises
out of a purchase or other acquisition of the Company, directly or indirectly, by a
Person in which the Executive has a direct or indirect equity interest, such event
shall not constitute a Change of Control; provided, however, that the limitation
contained in this sentence shall not apply to any direct or indirect equity interest
in a Person (1) which equity interest is part of a class of equity interests which
are publicly traded on any national securities exchange or other market system, (2)
received by the Executive, without the Executive’s concurrence or consent, as a
result of a purchase or other acquisition of the Company by such corporation or
other entity, or (3) received by the Executive, without the Executive’s concurrence
or consent, in connection with a purchase or other acquisition of the Company by
such Person in respect of any stock options or performance awards granted to the
Executive by the Company.

3.6 Company means Wellman, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

			
	ARTICLE IV	 	PLAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1 The Plan shall be administered by the Committee which shall have exclusive and absolute
authority and discretion to interpret the Plan, to establish and modify rules for the
administration of the Plan, to impose such conditions and restrictions as it determines appropriate
with respect to the Plan and to take such other actions and make such other determinations as it
may deem necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the Plan. All actions
taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith shall be final
and binding upon the participants, the

 

 

Company and all other interested persons. The Committee may delegate certain responsibilities to
the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer as the Committee so designates. No member
of the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in
good faith with respect to the Plan.

4.2 This Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated any time at the sole discretion of the
Board of Directors of Wellman, Inc., provided, however, that no such change in the Plan shall be
effective to eliminate or diminish the distribution of any award earned by a Plan participant
before the date of such amendment, suspension or termination. Notice of any such amendment,
suspension or termination shall be given promptly to each Plan participant.

			
	ARTICLE V	 	PARTICIPATION

5.1 The participants in the Plan consist of those employees who are executives identified by the
Committee.

			
	ARTICLE VI	 	DESCRIPTION OF PLAN OPERATION

6.1 A target percentage will be assigned to each Plan participant by the Committee annually (the
“target percentage”). The target percentage will be the percentage of salary a Plan participant
will be eligible to earn in bonus if he achieves (i) corporate performance goals measured by an
EBITDA return on assets and (ii) performance goals. These targets will be determined in the sole
discretion of the Committee.

The amount of the bonus payable hereunder to each Plan participant will be determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion.

Bonuses hereunder will be paid on or before March 15 following the Plan Year.

			
	ARTICLE VII	 	CHANGE IN STATUS DURING THE PLAN YEAR

7.1 Disability means that the Executive has been unable, for the period specified in the
Company’s disability plan for senior executives, but not less than a period of 180 consecutive
days, to perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, as a result of physical or mental
illness or injury. A participant shall receive a pro rata bonus based on the number of full months
worked for the year in which the disability started. The payment shall be made at the regular time
for making bonus payments.

7.2 Death. A participant’s beneficiary (as designated for this plan or if not specifically
designated for this plan, the beneficiary(ies) designated for the corporate life insurance program)
shall receive a pro rata bonus based on the number of full months worked for the Plan Year in which
they die. The payment will be made at the regular time for making bonus payments.

 

 

7.3 Retirement. A participant who retires from the Company upon or after reaching age 55 shall
receive a pro rata bonus based on the number of full months worked for the Plan Year in which
he/she retires. The payment will be made at the regular time for making bonus payments.

7.4 Resignation or Termination for Cause. Termination of employment for Cause or voluntary
termination by a participant results in the forfeiture of any award for the Plan Year in which
employment terminates.

7.5 Termination without Cause. A participant who is terminated for reasons other than those
described above will receive a pro rata portion of that Plan Year’s award. The payment will be
made at the regular time for making bonus payments or as mutually agreed by the Committee and the
terminated participant.

7.6 No Guarantee. Participation in the Plan provides no guarantee that a bonus under the Plan
will be paid in any Plan Year. Similarly, the payment of a bonus under the Plan in one Plan Year
or selection as a participant is no guarantee that a bonus under the Plan will be paid in any
subsequent Plan Year.

			
	ARTICLE VIII	 	GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1 Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall have the right to withhold the amount of taxes
which, in the determination of the Company, are required to be withheld under law with respect to
any amount due or paid under the Plan.

8.2 Expenses. All expenses and costs in connection with the adoption and administration of the
Plan shall be borne by the Company.

8.3 No Prior Right or Offer. Except and until expressly granted pursuant to the Plan, nothing in
the Plan shall be deemed to give any employee any contractual or other right to participate in the
benefits of the Plan.

8.4 Disputed Claims for Benefits. In the event a participant (a “claimant”) has a dispute with
respect to any of the benefits provided hereunder, the claimant shall submit evidence satisfactory
to the Committee of facts establishing his entitlement to a payment under the Plan. Any claim with
respect to any of the benefits provided under the Plan shall be made in writing within ninety (90)
days of the annual Plan payment date. Failure by
the claimant to submit his or her claim within such ninety (90) day period
shall bar the claimant from any claim for benefits under the Plan. In reaching its decision, the
Committee shall have complete discretionary authority to determine all questions arising in the
interpretation and administration of the Plan, to construe the terms of the Plan, including any
doubtful or disputed terms and the eligibility of a participant for benefits.

8.5 Rights Personal to Employee. Any rights provided to an employee under the Plan shall be
personal to such employee, shall not be transferable (except by will or pursuant to

 

 

the laws of descent or distribution), and shall be exercisable, during his or her lifetime, only by such
employee.

8.6 Confidentiality. Specific details of any calculations under the Plan must remain
confidential and because of the individuality of the awards, participants should not share
information with each other.

8.7 Wellman, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan or Other Plans. Participants in the Wellman, Inc.
Management Incentive Compensation Plan are not eligible to participate in the Wellman, Inc. Bonus
or Profit Sharing Plan.

8.8 Change of Control. Upon any Change of Control, unless the Committee in its sole discretion
determines otherwise prior to the Change of Control, the benefits of the Plan will be paid to all
participants within 45 days of the Change of Control date. Plan payments will be based on the full
Plan Year’s forecasted results as defined in the most recent financial forecast presented to the
Board prior to the Change of Control date using the most recent annual base salary of each
participant.

8.9 No Continued Employment. Neither the establishment of the Plan, the assignment of targets
nor the grant of an award hereunder shall be deemed to constitute an express or implied contract of
employment for any period of time or in any way abridge the rights of the Company to determine the
terms and conditions of employment or to terminate the employment of any employee with or without
cause at any time.

8.10 No Vested Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, no employee or other person shall
have any claim or right (legal, equitable, or otherwise) to any award, allocation, or distribution
and no officer or employee of the Company or any other person shall have any authority to make
representations or agreements to the contrary. No interest conferred herein to a participant shall
be assignable or subject to claim by a participant’s creditors.

8.11 Not Part of Other Benefits. The benefits provided in this Plan shall not be deemed a part
of any other benefit provided by the Company to its employees. The Company assumes no obligation
to Plan participants except as specified herein. This is a complete statement of the terms and
conditions of the Plan.
