Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

(a) Adoption of Annual Incentive Bonus Plan

 

On March 30 and 31, 2005, the Board of Directors of Tech Data Corporation (the “Company”) and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Compensation Committee”) approved the Fiscal Year 2006 Executive Compensation and Incentive Bonus Plan (“the Fiscal 2006 Plan”) for the Company’s chief executive officer and certain other members of its executive management group. The Fiscal 2006 Plan provides for an incentive cash bonus established at a specific targeted dollar amount and consists of non-discretionary awards that are tied to financial performance of the Company in relation to the Company’s operating budget. The bonus is subject to an acceleration ratio to a maximum of 200% if established targets are exceeded (conversely, if established targets are not met, the bonus may be reduced to zero). In formulating the Fiscal 2006 Plan with respect to cash incentive bonus awards, the Compensation Committee members evaluate the executive officer’s responsibilities and role in the Company and such other factors as they deem relevant to motivate the executive to achieve certain performance levels. Financial performance measures include earnings per share, operating income and cash day metrics as well as other financial performance measures, either on a worldwide basis or at the geographic segment level.

 

(b) Award of Equity Compensation

 

On March 31, 2005, the Board of Directors of Tech Data Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) and the Compensation Committee approved a long-term incentive award of maximum value stock options (“MVOs”) and maximum value stock options with stock-settled stock appreciation rights (“MVSSARs”) pursuant to the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan of Tech Data Corporation (the “2000 Equity Incentive Plan”), as amended by the Company’s shareholders on June 10, 2004. The MVO differs from the traditional stock option historically provided by the Company to eligible participants as it has an established cap on the potential gain at exercise. The MVSSAR, in addition to having an established cap on the potential gain at exercise, also delivers to the optionee the value between the option price and the stock price at the exercise date in shares of Tech Data common stock (the stock-settled stock appreciation right). The award of the MVOs and MVSSARs were priced at the last sale price as quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market on March 31, 2005 (or higher as required based upon the laws and regulations of specific foreign jurisdictions) and the terms of the award, as defined in the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan, were not materially different from terms of historical awards of traditional stock options in the provisions of the grant (i.e. vest schedule, contractual term, etc.).

 

(c) Senior Management Severance Plan

 

On March 31, 2005, the Board of Directors approved the amended and restated Tech Data Corporation Executive Severance Plan (the “Executive Severance Plan” or the “Plan”) (previously the Senior Management Severance Plan). The Executive Severance Plan provides benefits to senior management in the event of a Company-initiated, non-misconduct separation from the Company. The Plan contains a severance period providing eligible management personnel their regular base salary compensation for a stated period, determined based upon management position held and years of service. The receipt of severance benefits under the Executive Severance Plan is conditioned upon a participant executing a general release of claims, confidentiality and non-compete agreement. The amendment to the plan provides a reduction in benefits for eligible participants in levels at or above senior vice president and provides for several other non-material modifications. Under the terms of the Plan, certain recently hired officers are allowed to retain the benefits of the plan prior to this amendment for a two year period from their hire date.

This excerpt taken from the TECD 8-K filed Mar 2, 2005.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On February 25, 2005, the Board of Directors of Tech Data Corporation (“the Company”) approved the acceleration of vesting for all stock options awarded in March 2004 to employees and officers under the Company’s stock option award program. While the Company typically issues options that vest equally over four years, as a result of this vesting acceleration, stock options to purchase approximately 1.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock became immediately exercisable. The grant prices of the affected stock options range from $41.08 to $41.64 and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on February 24, 2005, was $41.20.

 

The primary purpose of the accelerated vesting is to eliminate future compensation expense the Company would otherwise recognize in its income statement with respect to these accelerated options upon the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is effective from the first interim period that begins after June 15, 2005, and will require that compensation expense associated with stock options be recognized in the income statement, rather than as a footnote disclosure in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The estimated future compensation expense associated with these accelerated options that would have been recognized in the Company’s income statement upon implementation of SFAS 123R is approximately $20 million.
