Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Compensatory Arrangement

On June 15, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors granted an unrestricted stock award to Craig F. Maier, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Pursuant to the award, 17,364 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to Mr. Maier. The total value of the award amounted to $370,770, which will be reported in his W-2 compensation for 2011. The Company will record a corresponding charge against its pretax earnings in the first quarter (ending September 20, 2011) of its fiscal year that will end May 29, 2012. In connection with the award, Mr. Maier surrendered 7,998 shares back to the Company’s treasury, to cover the withholding tax obligation on the compensation.

Also on June 15, 2011, Mr. Maier’s stock option to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that was originally granted to him on July 11, 2001 was terminated. The strike price was $13.70 per share.
