Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 4, 2006, G&K Services, Inc. (the “Company”) filed its definitive proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to its Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on November 16, 2006. In the proxy statement, the Company submitted a proposal to approve the G&K Services, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
In response to external feedback, the Company reaffirms its longstanding policy that it will not reduce the exercise price of an option or a stock appreciation right, amend or cancel such an instrument for the purpose of repricing, replacement or re-grant with a reduced exercise price, or buy out such an instrument previously granted for cash or other consideration without the prior approval of the Company’s shareholders, other than in the context of general adjustments to the Company’s common stock (such as a stock split) or in connection with a major corporate transaction (such as a change in control). To confirm this policy, set forth below are amended Sections 10.6 and 11.3 of the Plan, which reflect changes made by the Company to the Plan consistent with the foregoing.
10.1. No Repricing. Other than in connection with a change in the Company’s capitalization (as described in Section 25), an Option may not be re-priced without stockholder approval (including canceling previously awarded Options and re-granting them with a lower exercise price). However, the Committee may, at any time or from time to time authorize the Company, in the case of an Option exchange without shareholder approval, and with the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any, or all, outstanding Awards. The Committee may at any time buy from a Participant an Option previously granted with payment in cash, Shares or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee and the Participant shall agree.
11.1. No Repricing. Other than in connection with a change in the Company’s capitalization (as described in Section 25), a Stock Appreciation Right may not be re-priced without stockholder approval (including canceling previously awarded Stock Appreciation Rights and re-granting them with a lower exercise price). However, the Committee may, at any time or from time to time authorize the Company, in the case of a Stock Appreciation Rights exchange without shareholder approval, and with the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any, or all, outstanding Awards. The Committee may at any time buy from a Participant a Stock Appreciation Right previously granted with payment in cash, Shares or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee and the Participant shall agree.
