On August 16, 2013, the employment agreement of Mr. Stephen B. Burke, Executive Vice President of Comcast Corporation and the President and Chief Executive Officer of NBCUniversal Media, LLC, was amended. The amendment secures Mr. Burke’s employment through August 31, 2018; increases his base salary to $2.6 million effective September 1, 2013, although his annual cash bonus opportunity will remain at 300% of base salary (based on the achievement of performance goals); and includes additional restrictions and obligations for our benefit. The amendment also provides that, as an inducement for Mr. Burke to extend the term of his existing employment agreement, and on account of Mr. Burke’s outstanding work in integrating NBCUniversal and its businesses into Comcast, and making extraordinary progress in improving its businesses and results, Mr. Burke will be granted a performance-based bonus in the amount of $5 million, payable in the form of a $2.5 million credit to his account under our deferred compensation plan and a restricted stock unit grant having a value of $2.5 million that will vest 13 months following the date of grant, subject to continued employment and a performance condition that Comcast’s operating cash flow for the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2014 equals at least 101% of the operating cash flow for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2013. Additionally, the amendment continues the structure under Mr. Burke’s current employment agreement of crediting contributions to his deferred compensation plan account, with $3.5 million being credited in 2014 and with annual contributions increasing by 5% each year thereafter from 2015 through 2018.
The above summary is qualified by its entirety by the terms and conditions set forth in the amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
