Item 5.02. | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers, Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers |
On March 1, 2010, the Board of Directors of ARAMARK Holdings Corporation, our ultimate parent company (the “Parent Company Board”), approved amendments to all outstanding option agreements to: (1) modify Schedule 1 to such agreements to adjust the EBIT targets (both annual and cumulative) for fiscal 2011 and later years, the achievement of which determines the vesting of any part of such performance-based options and (2) reduce the required rate of return for certain of the alternative vesting conditions for performance based options from 22% to 15%. The Parent Company Board also approved a new form of non-qualified stock option agreement that will be used to make future grants of stock options, including to our named executive officers. This new form adjusts the performance targets for fiscal 2011 and later years and reduces the required rate of return for certain of the alternative vesting conditions contained in the agreement as described above. The Parent Company Board also approved an amendment to the 2007 Management Stock Incentive Plan to permit the Compensation and Human Resources Committee to delegate to a sub-committee and the Board to delegate to any other committee of the Board, including in either case a sub-committee consisting of the Chief Executive Officer, the authority to grant awards under the Plan. The amendment to the outstanding stock option agreements, the modified Schedule 1s, the new form of stock option agreement and the Plan Amendment are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 and are incorporated by reference herein.
The new annual and cumulative EBIT targets for outstanding options of our named executive officers are as follows:

(ii) Notwithstanding Section 4(a)(i), in the event of (A) a Change of Control, each outstanding Time-Based Option which has not theretofore become a Vested Option pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) shall become a Vested Option concurrently with consummation of such event, and (B) a Termination of Relationship as a result of the Optionee’s death, Disability, or Retirement (each, a “Special Termination”), the installment of Time-Based Options scheduled to vest during the 12-month period immediately following such Special Termination shall become Vested Options, and the remaining Time-Based Options which are not then Vested Options shall be forfeited.
(b)Performance-Based Options.
(i) Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Performance-Based Options shall become Vested Options on each Vesting Date, subject to the Optionee’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable Vesting Date and the achievement of the applicable EBIT performance target for the applicable fiscal year of the Company relating to the applicable Vesting Date (each such fiscal year, a “Fiscal Year”, and each such EBIT performance target, an “EBIT Target”, all as set forth on Schedule 1 to this Agreement).
(ii) Notwithstanding Section 4(b)(i), but, except as otherwise provided in Section 4(b)(ii)(E) below, subject to the Optionee’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable vesting event:
(A) in the event that the EBIT Target is not achieved for any particular Fiscal Year set forth on Schedule 1 to this Agreement (other than the Final Fiscal Year as defined on Schedule 1) (any such Fiscal Year, a “Missed Year”), if the cumulative EBIT earned as of the end of any subsequent Fiscal Year equals or exceeds the Cumulative EBIT Target (as set forth on Schedule 1 to this Agreement) for such subsequent Fiscal Year (any such Fiscal Year, a “Catch-up Year”), then all installments of Performance-Based Options that did not become vested in respect of any Missed Year will nevertheless become Vested Options on the same date that the installment of Performance-Based Options that otherwise vests in respect of such Catch-up Year pursuant to this Section 4(b) (see the attached Schedule 2 for an example hereof);
4
(B) upon the consummation of a Return-Based Vesting Event (as defined below), all then-unvested Performance-Based Options shall become Vested Options concurrently with the consummation of such event;
(C) upon the consummation of a Qualified Partial Liquidity Event (as defined below), a portion of the then-unvested Performance-Based Options (in the order set forth below) shall become Vested Options concurrently with the consummation of such event, such that the total percentage of Performance-Based Options that have become Vested Options immediately after the consummation of such Qualified Partial Liquidity Event shall, after taking into account any Performance-Based Options that had become Vested Options pursuant to any other provision of Section 4(b) prior to such Qualified Partial Liquidity Event, be equal to the Partial Liquidity Vesting Percentage (as defined below) (see the attached Schedule 2 for an example hereof);
(D) upon the occurrence, prior to the conclusion of the Final Fiscal Year, of a Change of Control that is not a Return-Based Vesting Event, a percentage of the then-unvested Performance-Based Options which would have been eligible for vesting based on EBIT performance for the Fiscal Year during which the Change in Control occurs and those eligible for any subsequent Fiscal Years, equal to (x) 100% multiplied by (y) a quotient, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Performance-Based Options that previously became Vested Options prior to the Fiscal Year in which such Change of Control occurs, and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Performance-Based Options that were eligible to become Vested Options if all EBIT Targets were achieved prior to the Fiscal Year during with the Change in Control occurs, shall become Vested Options concurrently with consummation of such a Change of Control (see the attached Schedule 2 for an example hereof); and
(E) in the event of a Special Termination, all installments of unvested Performance-Based Options that would have vested during the 12-month period immediately following such Special Termination (the “Special Termination Vesting Period”) in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 4(b) if no such termination had occurred during such period (including in the event that any such installments would have vested based on (x) the achievement of the Cumulative EBIT Target for the Fiscal Year immediately following the Fiscal Year in which the Special Termination occurs in accordance with Section 4(b)(ii)(A), or (y) the occurrence during the Special Termination Vesting Period of a Return-Based Vesting Event, a Qualified Partial Liquidity Event or a Change of Control that is not a Return-Based Vesting Event, in accordance with Section 4(b)(ii)(B), Section 4(b)(ii)(C), or Section 4(b)(ii)(D), respectively) shall become Vested Options on the applicable Vesting Date(s) that occur during the Special Termination Vesting Period (see the attached Schedule 2 for an example hereof).
For purposes of Section 4(b)(ii)(C) above, the then-unvested Performance-Based Options shall become Vested Options in the manner set forth therein, in the following order, to the extent
5
applicable: first, any then-unvested Performance-Based Options from any prior Missed Years (beginning with the earliest Missed Year and each subsequent Missed Year); second, the then-unvested Performance-Based Options eligible for vesting based on EBIT performance for the Fiscal Year in which the Qualified Partial Liquidity Event occurs; and third, any then-unvested Performance-Based Options eligible for vesting based on EBIT performance for the Fiscal Year immediately subsequent to the Fiscal Year in which the Qualified Partial Liquidity Event occurs and each subsequent Fiscal Year.
(c) Except as otherwise provided above with respect to a Special Termination, upon a Termination of Relationship for any reason, the unvested portion of the Option (i.e., that portion which does not constitute Vested Options) shall terminate and cease to be outstanding on the date the Termination of Relationship occurs and shall no longer be eligible to become Vested Options, provided, however, that if upon the date the Termination of Relationship occurs, the Committee is unable to determine if the EBIT Target for the Fiscal Year immediately preceding the year in which the Termination of Relationship occurs has been met, any unvested portion of the Option that could vest based upon such determination shall not terminate until such determination is made (and shall vest if the applicable EBIT Target is achieved in accordance with Section 4(6)(ii) above)).

6
(iii) The “Partial Liquidity Vesting Percentage” shall equal the percentage of the Sponsor Investment liquidated, disposed of or otherwise realized upon in a Qualified Partial Liquidity Event; provided that,if immediately following such event, the Sponsor Stockholders have liquidated, disposed of or otherwise realized upon 80% or more of the Sponsor Investment,then the Partial Liquidity Vesting Percentage shall equal 100%.
(iv) “Sponsor IRR” means the pretax compounded annual internal rate of return realized by the Sponsor Stockholders on the Sponsor Investment, based on the aggregate amount invested by the Sponsor Stockholders for all Sponsor Investment and the aggregate value and amount of cash and liquid or marketable debt or equity securities (excluding securities of the Company and, in the event of a Spin-off, securities of a Subsidiary (“Subsidiary Stock”), unless and until such shares are themselves disposed of or realized upon for cash and/or liquid or marketable equity or debt securities) actually received by the Sponsor Stockholders or in respect of all Sponsor Investment, assuming all Sponsor Investment were purchased by one Person and were held continuously by such Person.

(vi) In the event of a Special Termination, the term “Special Termination Sponsor IRR” shall have the same meaning as “Sponsor IRR”, except that the Sponsor IRR shall also be determined by including in such calculation the following, as of the date of such termination: (x) if no IPO has occurred at such time, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and the fair market value (determined in a manner consistent with the manner in which the Fair Market Value is determined under the Plan) of any Subsidiary Stock then held by the Sponsor Stockholders; or (y) following an IPO, the fair market value of each of the Common Stock and any Subsidiary Stock then held by the Sponsor Stockholders, calculated based on the average trading price of the applicable stock over the 30 trading-day period prior to the applicable potential Vesting Date (the amounts in clauses (x) and (y), collectively, the “Special Termination Valuations”); and the term “Special Termination Sponsor Return” shall have the same meaning as “Sponsor Return”, except that the Sponsor Return shall also be determined by including in such calculation the Special Termination Valuations.
All decisions by the Committee with respect to any calculations pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made in good faith after consultation with senior management and shall be final and binding on the Optionee absent manifest error by the Committee.
Section 5.Restriction on Transfer/Stockholders Agreement.

The Option shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or the Stockholders Agreement shall be null and void and without effect.

8
(c) in the case of a Termination of Relationship other than (x) for Cause or (y) due to a Special Termination, the 90th day following the Termination of Relationship; and
(d) the day of the Termination of Relationship in the case of a Termination of Relationship for Cause.
Section 8.Securities Law Representations. The Optionee acknowledges that, unless and until the Option and the Shares are registered under the Securities Act on a Form S-8, the Option and the Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act, based, in part, on either (i) reliance upon an exemption from registration under Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act or (ii) the fact that the Optionee is an “accredited investor” (as defined under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder), and, in each of (i) and (ii) above, a comparable exemption from qualification under applicable state securities laws, as each may be amended from time to time. The Optionee, by executing this Agreement, hereby agrees that the Optionee shall make such representations as may be required to be made by the Optionee upon any acquisition of Shares hereunder as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, as such representations, if any, shall be required to be made at such time. The Optionee further represents the following, as of the date hereof:
• | The Optionee represents and warrants that (i) such party has full legal power, authority and right to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, this Agreement, and (ii) this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such party and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of such party enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms. |
• | The Optionee has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Option and the restrictions imposed on any Shares purchased upon exercise of the Option. |
• | The Optionee is aware that the Option may be of no practical value, that any value it may have depends on its vesting and exercisability as well as an increase in the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares to an amount in excess of the Option Price, and that any investment in common shares of a closely held corporation such as the Company is non-marketable, non-transferable and could require capital to be invested for an indefinite period of time, possibly without return, and at substantial risk of loss. |
• | The Optionee has read and understands the restrictions and limitations set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, the Plan and this Agreement. |
9
• | The Optionee has not relied upon any oral representation made to the Optionee relating to the Option or the purchase of the Shares on exercise of the Option or upon information presented in any meeting or material relating to the Option or the Shares. |
• | The Optionee understands and acknowledges that, if and when the Optionee exercises the Option, (a) any certificate evidencing the Shares (or evidencing any other securities issued with respect thereto pursuant to any stock split, stock dividend, merger or other form of reorganization or recapitalization) when issued shall bear any legends which may be required by applicable federal and state securities laws, and (b) except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or under the Stockholders Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement (as such term is defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the Company has no obligation to register the Shares or file any registration statement under federal or state securities laws. |
Section 9.Designation of Beneficiary. The Optionee may appoint any individual or legal entity in writing as the Optionee’s beneficiary to receive any Option (to the extent not previously terminated or forfeited) under this Agreement upon the Optionee’s death or Disability. The Optionee may revoke the Optionee’s designation of a beneficiary at any time and appoint a new beneficiary in writing. To be effective, the Optionee must complete the designation of a beneficiary or revocation of a beneficiary by written notice to the Company underSection 11 of this Agreement before the date of the Optionee’s death. In the absence of a beneficiary designation, the legal representative of the Optionee’s estate shall be deemed the beneficiary.

The Company shall, reasonably promptly upon the occurrence of any vesting pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii)(E) above, provide notice to the Optionee of such vesting (it being understood that a failure to so provide such notice shall not result in an extension of the applicable Option exercise period, but shall constitute a breach of this Agreement).
Section 12.Waiver of Breach. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement must be in writing and shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
Section 13.Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE TO BE APPLIED. IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF UNDER SUCH JURISDICTION’S CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW ANALYSIS, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAW OF SOME OTHER JURISDICTION WOULD ORDINARILY APPLY.
Section 14.Withholding. As a condition to exercising this Option in whole or in part, the Optionee will pay, or make provisions satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any Federal, state, local and other applicable taxes required to be withheld in connection with such exercise in a manner that is set forth in Section 5.6 of the Plan.

Section 16.Section 409A of the Code. If any term, distribution or settlement of this Agreement, or any other action by the Company (including by the Committee) pursuant to the terms of the Plan or this Agreement, would subject the Optionee to tax under Section 409A of the Code, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Optionee for any taxes, interest and penalties the Optionee may incur under Section 409A of the Code as a result thereof, such that on a net-after-tax basis, the Optionee shall not be liable for any such taxes, interest or penalties, or for any taxes, interest or penalties imposed upon the Company’s provision of such indemnity. The Company and the Optionee shall cooperate in good faith, and consult with tax counsel to the Company, to restructure the Option and this Agreement (which may require the provision of an alternative payment or benefit, but which shall not convey an economic benefit to the Optionee that is diminished in value to the Optionee other than in a de minimis manner) in a manner that will cause the Optionee to not be subject to such taxes, interest and penalties in respect of the Option and this Agreement (or any such restructured arrangement).
Section 17.Modification of Rights; Entire Agreement. The Optionee’s rights under this Agreement and the Plan may be modified only to the extent expressly provided under this Agreement or under Article X or Article XIV of the Plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 19.Waiver of Jury Trial; Legal Fees.

In the event of any dispute regarding any term of this Option, the Company shall promptly reimburse the Optionee for all legal fees and expenses the Optionee incurs in connection with such dispute if the Optionee prevails in such dispute on a substantial portion of the claims under such dispute.
