Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 18, 2006, Innophos, Inc. and Innophos Holdings, Inc., or the Company, the parent company to both Innophos, Inc. and Innophos Investments Holdings, Inc., entered into bonus agreements with certain officers of Innophos, Inc., including Randy Gress, Richard Heyse, William Farran and Louis Calvarin, or collectively, the Executives, pursuant to which they will be entitled to receive a bonus in the event that the Company completes an initial public offering of its common stock, which we refer to herein as an IPO. The amount of each bonus will be determined pursuant to a formula that calculates the accretion in value of a specified number of the Company’s Class A Shares and Class L Shares from and after April 1, 2005 through the date of any such IPO based on the offering price of the common stock.

Any such bonus will be paid (x) 55% in cash no later than the 10th business day after the consummation of an IPO, or Closing Date, and (y) 45% by issuance of a number of shares of the Company’s common stock, or Bonus Shares, or calculated by dividing 45% of the bonus amount by the initial per share offering price. The Bonus Shares will be unvested at issuance and will be subject to vesting at a rate of 11.11% on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 after the Closing Date. Prior to vesting, Executives will not sell or transfer any Bonus Shares. An Executive’s unvested Bonus Shares shall become fully vested upon a sale of the Company or upon a termination of the Executive’s employment other than for “Cause” as defined in the bonus agreements. Mr. Gress’ unvested Bonus Shares will also become fully vested if he resigns for “Good Reason” as defined in his bonus agreement. Unvested Bonus Shares will otherwise be forfeited upon termination of employment.

Each Executive’s right to payment of any bonus expires if the Company does not consummate an IPO on or prior to December 31,2006, or if the Executive is terminated under certain circumstances prior to the consummation of an IPO.
