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

 

1. Stockholder Approval of Amendment to 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan (As Amended and Restated Effective May 25, 2011)

On May 25, 2011, we held our 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2011 Annual Meeting”), at which our stockholders approved the Amendment to the 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”), including an increase in the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2008 Plan by 1,950,000 shares.

By approving the 2008 Plan, as amended and restated effective May 25, 2011 (the “Amended 2008 Plan”), our stockholders also re-approved the material terms of the performance goals for performance-based awards under the Amended 2008 Plan for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Amended 2008 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to an aggregate maximum of 10,364,363 shares of common stock, which includes:

 

   

5,600,000 shares of our common stock (which includes the additional 1,950,000 shares stockholders approved at the 2011 Annual Meeting), plus

 

   

up to 1,941,357 shares that were added from the Company’s predecessor equity plans following original stockholder approval of the 2008 Plan on May 23, 2008, plus

 

   

up to 2,823,006 shares that were subject to outstanding awards under the Company’s predecessor equity plans following original stockholder approval of the 2008 Plan on May 23, 2008 and that thereafter cease to be subject to such awards (such as by cancellation or forfeiture).

The Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) administers the Amended 2008 Plan although the Board or the Compensation Committee may delegate administration of the Amended 2008 Plan to one or more committees of the Board or permit a senior executive officer to make certain grants under the Amended 2008 Plan in accordance with its terms.

Employees, directors, consultants, advisors and independent contractors are eligible to receive awards under the Amended 2008 Plan. Awards may consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock units, stock grants, performance shares, performance units, dividend equivalents or other cash-based or equity awards. The Amended 2008 Plan will expire on May 23, 2018.

The foregoing summary of the Amended 2008 Plan, and summaries of the Amended 2008 Plan set forth in our 2011 Proxy Statement for the 2011 Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2011, and the supplemental material filed with the SEC on May 17, 2011 (the “Supplemental Material”), is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended 2008 Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report.

 

2. Grant of Performance Based Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Stock Units to CEO

On May 24, 2011, the Compensation Committee awarded 43,750 performance-based restricted stock units (“PBRSUs”) to our CEO, Patrick J. Byrne, as part of the long-term incentive compensation program for 2011. The PBRSUs require achievement of business operating profit before interest and taxes (“BOP”) of 1.5% of revenue for the year ending December 31, 2011, subject to further time vesting if the performance goal is met. For purposes of attainment against the performance target, BOP attained will be calculated excluding charges related to specified non-recurring events that are not reflective of the performance of the ongoing business. If the performance goal is not met for the year, the PBRSUs will automatically be forfeited. If the performance goal is achieved for the year ending December 31, 2011, the PBRSUs will vest in three approximately equal increments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and will be paid out in shares of our common stock. Except for the threshold performance vesting requirement, the PBRSUs will otherwise have the same terms and conditions as the restricted

stock units we customarily grant. A copy of the Performance Based Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement between the Company and our CEO is filed as Exhibit 10.2 with this Current Report. (In the Supplemental Material, the PBRSUs are referred to as “PVRSUs”.)

On May 24, 2011, the Compensation Committee also awarded 72,917 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to our CEO, as part of the long-term incentive compensation program for 2011. The RSUs will vest in three approximately equal increments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and will be paid out in shares of our common stock. For 2011, the PBRSUs, together with the performance share unit awards previously granted to our CEO in the first quarter of 2011, constitute at least 50% of the equity granted to our CEO for 2011 (based on the number, not value, of shares).

 

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As described above in Item 5.02, on May 25, 2011, we held our 2011 Annual Meeting. According to the final tabulation, 55,956,262 shares, or approximately 93% of the outstanding shares, were present either in person or by proxy at this meeting, which represented a quorum. The final results of voting for each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders at the meeting are as follows:

(1) The stockholders elected each of the nine nominees to our Board of Directors for a term expiring at the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are elected and qualified by a majority of the votes cast. The voting for each director was as follows:
