Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 1, 2015, at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the “Company”), the Company’s shareholders approved certain amendments (the “Amendments”) to the UnitedHealth Group Incorporated 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
The Plan was initially approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 23, 2011. The purpose of the Plan is to aid in attracting and retaining employees, management and members of the Board of Directors. The Plan, which is administered by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards and other equity-based awards. The Company’s Board of Directors may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan at any time, except as provided in the Plan. No new awards may be granted under the Plan after February 9, 2021.
The Amendments approved at the Annual Meeting:
Increased the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan by 70,000,000 shares;
Provided that, with respect to any awards other than stock options and SARs granted after shareholder approval of the Amendments, the number of shares available for awards will be reduced by 2.50 shares for each share covered by such award or to which such award relates; and
Eliminated the 41,332,237 share limit in the Plan with respect to the number of shares that may be used for awards other than stock options and SARs.
No other amendments to the Plan were approved by shareholders at the Annual Meeting.
This summary of the Plan and the Amendments is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, as amended, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. A more detailed summary of the Plan, as amended, can be found in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 22, 2015.
