Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On May 9, 2013, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) awarded performance-based restricted stock units under the Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan to its named executive officers in the amounts set forth opposite each of their names below (the “PRSUs”):
Officer
 
PRSUs
Nicholas Konidaris
 
63,000
Paul Oldham
 
22,500
Robert DeBakker
 
15,000
Kerry Mustoe
 
5,000
Bing-Fai Wong
 
15,000

One-third of the PRSUs vest based on the Company's sales in fiscal 2015 and two-thirds vest based on the Company's sales in fiscal 2016, in each case as compared to the revenue goals for that year set forth in the Company's current three-year strategic plan (the “Strategic Plan”). Of the PRSUs vesting based on fiscal 2015 sales, 100% vest on sales equal to the Company's revenue goal for fiscal 2015, with additional vesting in 20% increments for each 10% increment in sales above that amount, up to a maximum of 200% vesting on sales of 150% of the revenue goal. For sales below the revenue goal, 90% vest on sales equal to 90% of the goal and vest linearly up to 100%. There is no vesting if sales are below 90% of the goal.
Of the PRSUs vesting based on fiscal 2016 sales, 100% vest on sales equal to the Company's revenue goal for fiscal 2016, with additional vesting in 20% increments for each 10% increment in sales above that amount, up to a maximum of 200% vesting on sales of 150% of the revenue goal. For sales below the revenue goal, 85% vest on sales of 85% of the goal and vest linearly up to 100%. There is no vesting if sales are below 85% of the goal.
The other terms of the PRSUs are materially consistent with the restricted stock unit awards granted to each of the named executive officers described in the Company's proxy statement for its 2012 annual meeting.
