On August 11, 2011, the board of directors (the “Board”) of LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”), in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, adopted a resolution increasing the total number of directors that constitutes the Board from nine to ten directors, and thereafter elected Randy O. Rissman to fill the newly created vacancy on the Board.

In connection with the election of Mr. Rissman to the Board, the Board affirmatively determined that Mr. Rissman has no material relationship with the Company and otherwise satisfies the definition of “independent director” under Section 303A.02 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual.

In accordance with the Company’s director compensation arrangements currently applicable to all non-employee directors, Mr. Rissman will receive an annual cash retainer of $40,000 for serving as a director on the Board. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the 2002 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Award Plan of the Company (the “Plan”), Mr. Rissman is expected to be granted a nonstatutory stock option to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock equal in value to $100,000 on the date of grant and a restricted stock unit award equal in value to $100,000 on the date of grant. In accordance with the terms of the Plan, the grant date for such initial grants is anticipated to be September 15, 2011. Vesting of such grants is expected to be as follows: 1/36th of the shares of Class A common stock covered by the nonstatutory stock option shall vest monthly over thirty-six (36) months from the date of such director’s initial election to the Board and 1/3rd of the shares of Class A common stock covered by the restricted stock unit award shall vest on each annual anniversary of the grant date. The Company and Mr. Rissman will enter into the Company’s standard form of Indemnification Agreement between the Company and a director, the form of which agreement was filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.01 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007.

Other than as disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K, there are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Rissman and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Rissman was selected as a director, and there are and have been no transactions since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, or currently proposed, regarding Mr. Rissman that are required to be disclosed by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On August 15, 2011, the Company issued a press release announcing Mr. Rissman’s election to the Board. A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
