SECTION 5. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT.

Item 5.02.

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Exclusion of Certain Items from AIC and LTI Plans. On June 6, 2016, the Board of Directors of FedEx Corporation, upon the recommendation of its Compensation Committee, decided that it was in the best interests of the company and its shareowners to exclude certain items from fiscal 2016 earnings for purposes of FedEx’s fiscal 2016 annual incentive compensation (“AIC”) plan and FedEx’s FY14–FY16, FY15–FY17 and FY16–FY18 long-term incentive (“LTI”) plans. For purposes of these plans, fiscal 2016 earnings will be adjusted to exclude: (i) expenses in connection with the settlement of (and certain expected losses relating to) independent contractor litigation matters involving FedEx Ground and expenses related to the settlement of a U.S. Customs and Border Protection matter involving FedEx Trade Networks, Inc., in each case net of recognized insurance recovery; and (ii) expenses associated with the acquisition and integration of TNT Express N.V. (“TNT”), net of any tax impact, and TNT’s fiscal 2016 operating results. The active LTI plans also will be adjusted to exclude the impact of fiscal 2016 share repurchase activity. By excluding these items, payouts, if any, under these plans will more accurately reflect FedEx’s core financial performance in fiscal 2016.
