ITEM 5.02
DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
On November 8, 2013, Dollar General Corporation (the Company) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the Original 8-K) to report the promotion of Todd J. Vasos to Chief Operating Officer. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Original 8-K to provide certain compensatory information in connection with such promotion that was not determined at the time of the Original 8-K.
On December 3, 2013, in connection with Mr. Vasoss promotion, the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors approved (1) an increase in Mr. Vasoss annual base salary from $687,107 to $750,000, effective November 4, 2013; (2) an increase in Mr. Vasoss targeted annual bonus from 65% to 80% of his base salary, to be prorated from the date of his promotion, with respect to any bonus earned in the current fiscal year and with the actual bonus amount to be based on the achievement of performance targets previously established by the Compensation Committee in accordance with the terms of the Companys annual bonus plan; and (3) an award of a non-qualified stock option (the Option) to purchase 2,880 shares of the Companys common stock at a per share exercise price of $56.48 per share which was the closing price of the Companys common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the grant date of the Option. Subject to certain limited vesting acceleration events, the Option is scheduled to vest in four annual installments of 25% beginning on December 3, 2014 and will terminate no later than December 3, 2023. The Option was granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Incentive Plan for Key Employees of Dollar General Corporation and the related form of Stock Option Agreement.
In addition, on December 4, 2013, the Company and Mr. Vasos entered into an amendment to Mr. Vasoss employment agreement, effective November 4, 2013 (the Amendment to Employment Agreement), to reflect his title and the increase in his annual base salary. The Amendment to Employment Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
Except as described herein, all other terms of Mr. Vasoss existing employment agreement with the Company and other previously disclosed compensatory arrangements remain in full force and effect.
The foregoing description of the Amendment to Employment Agreement is not a complete summary of the terms of such document, and reference is made to the complete text of such document which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
