EXHIBIT 10.30
AMENDMENT DATED 11/6/97
TO THE
1991 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
WHEREAS, Alco Standard Corporation (now known as IKON Office Solutions,
Inc.) (the "Company") adopted the 1991 Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"),
effective January 1, 1991; and
WHEREAS, the Company now desires to amend the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended as follows:
All references in the Plan to "Alco Standard Corporation" and "Alco" shall
be deemed to be references to "IKON Office Solutions, Inc." and "IKON,"
respectively.
The term "Change in Control" as used in Section 21 of the Plan shall mean
any of the following events:
(A) any Person, together with its affiliates and associates (as such
terms are used in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act")), is or becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 15% or more of the
then outstanding shares of IKON common stock; or
(B) the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a
majority of the number of directors then serving: individuals who, on September
30, 1997, constituted the Board of Directors of IKON and any new director whose
appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by IKON's
shareholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then
still in office who either were directors of IKON on September 30, 1997 or whose
appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved; or
(C) IKON consolidates with, or merges with or into, any other Person
(other than a wholly owned subsidiary of IKON), or any other Person consolidates
with, or merges with or into, IKON, and, in connection therewith, all or part of
the outstanding shares of common stock shall be changed in any way or converted
into or exchanged for stock or other securities or cash or any other property;
or
(D) a transaction or series of transactions in which, directly or
indirectly, IKON shall sell or otherwise transfer (or one or more of its
subsidiaries shall sell or otherwise transfer) assets (i) aggregating more than
50% of the assets (measured by either book value or fair market value) or (ii)
generating more than 50% of the operating income or cash flow of IKON and its
subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any other Person or group of Persons.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no "Change in Control" shall be deemed to
have occurred if there is consummated any transaction or series of integrated
transactions immediately following which the record holders of IKON common stock
immediately prior to such
transaction or series of transactions own a majority of the outstanding voting
shares and in substantially the same proportion in an entity which owns all or
substantially all of the assets of IKON immediately following such transaction
or series of transactions.
The term "Person" in the foregoing definition shall have the meaning given
in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified and used in Sections 13(d)
and 14(d) thereof, except that such term shall not include (i) IKON or any of
its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act),
(ii) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit
plan of IKON or any of its affiliates, (iii) an underwriter temporarily holding
securities pursuant to an offering of such securities, or (iv) a corporation
owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of IKON in substantially the
same proportions as their ownership of IKON stock.
Executed this 29th day of June, 1998.
