Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
The Compensation and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) of Kimball International, Inc. (the “Company”), at its July 6, 2017 meeting, approved three Stock Incentive Agreements which are each subject to the terms of the Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which the Company may grant a variety of stock incentive awards to participating employees of the Company. The Plan was previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 21, 2013.
The form of Annual Performance Share Award Agreement (the “APS Award Agreement”) is intended to be used to grant annual performance shares to officers and other key leaders of the Company if the applicable performance levels for the performance period have been achieved. Participants will earn from 0% to 200% of the target share award depending upon the annual return on equity for the Company as defined in the APS Award Agreement. The APS Awards are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the APS Award Agreement. This summary is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the APS Award Agreement in Exhibit 10.1 of this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The form of Performance Unit Award Agreement is intended to be used to grant performance units to senior executive officers of the Company based on relative total shareholder return (“RTSR”). RTSR is an incentive measure based entirely on the performance of the Company's shares in comparison to the share performance of an approved group of peer companies. Awards under the Performance Unit Award Agreement will typically be earned and vested over a three-year period. This longer-term performance incentive for senior executives is intended to align executive compensation with RTSR, and the Committee believes the RTSR incentive measure is strongly aligned with share owner interest. The Performance Unit Awards are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Performance Unit Award Agreement. This summary is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Performance Unit Award Agreement in Exhibit 10.2 of this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The form of Restricted Share Unit Award Agreement (the “RSU Award Agreement”) is intended to be used to grant restricted share units to officers and other key leaders of the Company. The RSU Awards are structured as a retention tool with vesting typically occurring at the end of a three-year period. The RSU Awards are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the RSU Award Agreement. This summary is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the RSU Award Agreement in Exhibit 10.3 of this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.






On July 6, 2017, pursuant to the Company's Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, the Compensation and Governance Committee granted named executive officers of the Company the following awards: Annual Performance Share Awards, RTSR Performance Unit Awards, and Restricted Share Unit awards. The awards are a key component of their total annual compensation package designed to link compensation to the Company's performance, align compensation with the interests of shareholders, and retain executive talent.
