Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) On October 29, 2007, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Hudson Highland Group, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a new form of Executive Employment Agreement applicable to the Company’s executive officers other than Jon F. Chait. The changes to the Executive Employment Agreements were primarily to make the existing Executive Employment Agreements compliant with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”). In addition, the Executive Employment Agreements were revised to provide that, upon a change of control of the Company, the amounts due to an executive officer under the Executive Employment Agreement be funded into a rabbi trust for the benefit of an executive officer who is terminated. The Committee also approved similar revisions to the Excise Tax Gross-Up Agreement between the Company and Jon F. Chait. In addition, the Committee approved amendments to the Company’s Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan to be compliant with Section 409A. On October 31, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company, upon recommendation of the Committee, approved amendments to the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan to amend the Long Term Incentive Plan to be compliant with Section 409A. No additional amounts are payable to the Company’s executive officers as a result of the foregoing amendments.
