Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On October 31, 2014, the spin-off of Kimball Electronics, Inc. (the “Company”) from Kimball International, Inc. was completed (the “Spin-Off”). Prior to the Spin-Off, certain employees of the Company, including our Named Executive Officers, were awarded by Kimball International, Inc. Annual and/or Long-Term Performance Share Awards (the “Awards”). The Form of Long-Term Performance Share Award Agreement and the Form of Annual Performance Share Award Agreement (the “Agreements”) were filed as Exhibit 10.3 and Exhibit 10.9, respectively, of Amendment 3 to the Company’s Form 10 filed on September 4, 2014.
The Form of Annual and/or Long-Term Performance Share Award Amendment (the “Amendment”), dated December 2, 2014, amends these Agreements to provide an equitable adjustment as a result of the Spin-Off for outstanding Awards to reflect the change in stock value by an adjustment factor of 1.94 for each outstanding Award. The adjustment factor of 1.94 was calculated pursuant to Exhibit A of the Employee Matters Agreement by and between Kimball International, Inc. and Kimball Electronics, Inc. filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on November 3, 2014. In addition, the Awards will be granted in shares of the Company’s common stock to the certain employees of the Company instead of Kimball International, Inc. shares.
The foregoing description of the Form of Annual and/or Long-Term Performance Share Award Amendment is only a summary of the Amendment. For complete text of this Amendment, see the form agreement filed with this Current Report Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 which is incorporated herein by reference.
