Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 19, 2010, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (“Altisource”) approved an equity incentive award pursuant to which 3 members of the Altisource’s senior management team were granted options to purchase a total of 480,000 shares of Altisource’s common stock under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan. Included as grant recipients were the following executives:
             
Name   Title   Number of Options Granted
William B. Shepro
  Chief Executive Officer     240,000  
Robert D. Stiles
  Chief Financial Officer     120,000  
Kevin J. Wilcox
  Chief Administration Officer and General Counsel     120,000  
The options have an exercise price of $24.85 per share or the closing price of the Altisource’s common stock on the day of the Committee’s approval. The vesting schedule for the options has a time-based component, in which 25% of the options vest in equal increments over four years, and a performance-based component, in which up to 75% of the options could vest in equal increments, with 25% vesting immediately upon the achievement of certain performance criteria related to Altisource’s stock price and its annualized rate of return and the remaining 75% vesting over the next three years. Two-thirds of the performance-based options would commence vesting if the stock price realizes a compounded annual gain of at least 20% over the exercise price, so long as the stock price is at least double the exercise price. The remaining third of the performance-based options would commence vesting if the stock price realizes a 25% gain, so long as it is at least triple the exercise price.
