(e) Adoption of the Apogee Enterprises, Inc. 2009 Stock Incentive Plan

On June 24, 2009, at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”), the Company’s shareholders adopted the Apogee Enterprises, Inc. 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Incentive Plan”), which previously had been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 7, 2009, subject to shareholder approval. The 2009 Incentive Plan permits grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalents, performance awards, stock awards and other stock-based awards (collectively, “Awards”) to employees, officers, consultants and independent contractors of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors and Compensation Committee have the authority to determine the type of Award as well as the amount, terms and conditions of each Award under the 2009 Incentive Plan, subject to the limitations and other provisions of the 2009 Incentive Plan.

The purpose of the 2009 Incentive Plan is to promote the interests of the Company and its shareholders by (1) aiding the Company in attracting and retaining management personnel capable of providing strategic direction to, and assuring the future success of, the Company and (2) motivating such persons to put forth maximum efforts for the success of the Company’s business. The 2009 Incentive Plan allows the Company to compensate such persons through various stock-based arrangements and provide them with opportunities for stock ownership in the Company, thereby aligning the interests of such persons with the Company’s shareholders.

A total of 1,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock is authorized for the granting of Awards under the 2009 Incentive Plan. The number of shares available for Awards, as well as the terms of outstanding Awards, are subject to adjustment as provided in the 2009 Incentive Plan for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and other similar events.

Awards may be granted under the 2009 Incentive Plan until June 23, 2019 or until all shares available for Awards under the 2009 Incentive Plan have been purchased or acquired; provided, however, that incentive stock options may not be granted after May 7, 2019. The Board may from time to time amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the 2009 Incentive Plan, subject, in certain circumstances, to shareholder approval.

This summary of the 2009 Incentive Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2009 Incentive Plan, a copy of which was attached as Exhibit 4.5 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 24, 2009 and is incorporated herein by reference. A more detailed summary of the 2009 Incentive Plan can be found in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2009.
