Item 5.02(e) Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On December 16, 2009, the compensation committee of Palm’s board of directors approved a bonus plan for the second half of fiscal year 2010. This plan provides that cash bonuses will be paid for the second half of fiscal year 2010 to executive officers and other employees based on the achievement of certain performance metrics – including revenue and operating income – and individual performance. The target bonuses for executive officers range from 50% to 100% of base salary. Payments to executive officers under the plan may be more or less than a target bonus as a function of Palm’s results or individual performance.

Item 8.01 Other Events

On December 16, 2009, the compensation committee of Palm’s board of directors amended Palm’s 2009 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) to provide that, notwithstanding other authority granted to the board of directors to administer the Plan, no discretionary award granted under the Plan to a director who is not a Palm employee (a “Non-Employee Director”) may be granted or modified by any person other than a committee of the board of directors comprised solely of Non-Employee Directors.
