Current Report on Form 8-K
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On April 24, 2013, the stockholders of Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”), upon recommendation of the Citigroup Board of Directors (the “Board”), approved an amendment to the Citigroup 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”), which was first approved by stockholders on April 21, 2009. This amendment to the 2009 Plan allows the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board to provide for awards with performance vesting conditions (including awards granted on February 19, 2013) to accrue dividend equivalents that will be paid only if and when, and only to the extent that, the applicable performance conditions are satisfied and the underlying shares vest.
The amendment to the 2009 Plan is described in greater detail in proposal 4 in Citigroup’s Proxy Statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (“Proxy Statement”). The Proxy Statement, which also includes a summary description of the 2009 Plan, as proposed to be amended, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2013. The descriptions of the 2009 Plan contained herein and in the Proxy Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the 2009 Plan (as amended and restated effective April 24, 2013).
