This excerpt taken from the ROST DEF 14A filed Apr 14, 2008. Deferred Compensation
Awards. A participant generally will
recognize no income upon the receipt of deferred stock units. Upon the
settlement of deferred stock units, the participant normally will recognize
ordinary income in the year of settlement in an amount equal to the fair market
value of the shares received. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary
income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon
the sale of the shares received, any gain or loss, based on the difference
between the sale price and the fair market value of the shares on the date they
are transferred to the participant, will be taxed as capital gain or loss. The
Company generally should be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of
ordinary income recognized by the participant, except to the extent such
deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code.
