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

On April 22, 2025, in order to facilitate the declassification of the Company’s Board of Directors, each of Richard A. Hubbell, John F. Wilson, Timothy C. Rollins, Susan R. Bell, Amy R. Kreisler, and Stephen E. Lewis tendered his or her resignation from the Board of Directors effective immediately following the filing of the Marine Products Corporation (the “Company”) Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware that effected the declassification, solely for the purpose of shortening their terms as directors of the Company in order that each such director could then be reappointed to the Board for a one-year term that would expire at the 2026 Annual Meeting. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation was approved by the stockholders at the 2025 Annual Meeting, and it was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on April 22, 2025. The resignations described above were tendered on April 22, 2025 and became effective on that date. Subsequently, on April 22, 2025, the remaining directors re-elected Richard A. Hubbell, John F. Wilson, Timothy C. Rollins, Susan R. Bell, Amy R. Kreisler, and Stephen E. Lewis to fill the vacancies on the Board and to serve a one-year term expiring at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their successors are elected. Their Board committee assignments remain unchanged. No committee assignments have been made yet for Mr. Lewis.
