Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 2, 2011, FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI”) entered into a supplemental confirmation with Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) for a $209.4 million accelerated stock buyback transaction, pursuant to the collared accelerated stock buyback master confirmation agreement dated November 9, 2009 between FTI and Goldman Sachs. (A copy of the collared accelerated stock buyback master confirmation agreement entered into on November 9, 2009, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 9, 2009 filed on November 13, 2009. In January 2010, FTI completed a $250 million accelerated stock buyback transaction with Goldman Sachs pursuant to a supplemental confirmation that was executed in November 2009 and filed as Exhibit 99.2 to that same Current Report on Form 8-K.)

FTI will repurchase the additional shares under the current accelerated stock buyback transaction as part of the $500 million stock repurchase program that it announced on November 4, 2009. This repurchase transaction completes the 2009 repurchase authorization.

Under the current accelerated stock buyback, FTI will pay $209.4 million to Goldman Sachs from available cash on hand to repurchase outstanding shares of its common stock and will receive a substantial majority of the shares to be delivered under the accelerated stock buyback by no later than March 7, 2011. The specific number of shares that ultimately will be repurchased will be based generally on the volume-weighted average share price of our common stock during the term of the repurchase agreement, subject to provisions that establish minimum and maximum numbers of shares. Goldman Sachs is expected to purchase shares of FTI common stock in the open market in connection with the accelerated stock buyback. The supplemental confirmation contemplates that final settlement may occur in December 2011, although under certain circumstances, in Goldman Sachs’ discretion, the completion date may be accelerated. At settlement, FTI may be entitled to receive additional shares of common stock from Goldman Sachs or under certain circumstances may be required to make a payment (in cash or stock at its election) to Goldman Sachs. All of the repurchased shares will be retired.
