SECTION 1 – REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 9, 2006, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors approved increases in target bonus levels, as a percent of salary, for certain named executive officers eligible to participate in the LESCO Executive Bonus Plan for 2006.
| | | | | | | |
Michael A. Weisbarth | | Vice President, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer | | 35% (from 25%) |
| | | | | | |
Kathleen M. Minahan | | Vice President, Chief Administrative Officer, General Counsel & Secretary | | 35% (from 25%) |
In addition, Ms. Minahan’s annual base salary was increased to $200,000, retroactive to May 1, 2006.
Also upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board appointed Richard F. Doggett as the Company’s Senior Vice-President, Sales with an annual base salary of $225,000 and a 40% target bonus level.
In the case of mid-year changes to base salary or target bonus level such as those granted to Messrs. Doggett and Weisbarth and Ms. Minahan, bonuses (if any) under the LESCO Executive Bonus Plan for 2006 will be calculated on a pro rata basis using the base salary and bonus percentage in effect for each respective portion of the year.
As previously announced, the LESCO Executive Bonus Plan for 2006 provides that bonuses will be paid to participants if the Company meets or exceeds stated financial performance measures, and then only if and to the extent that the Company’s earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) in 2006 exceed the Company’s 2006 plan for EBIT.
A copy of the 2006 Bonus Plan was filed as Exhibit 10(b) to the Company’s Form 8-K dated February 14, 2006.
