The purposes of the Annual Meeting are set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Annual Meeting will be held at the Marriott Hotel Jacksonville located at 4670 Salisbury Road, Jacksonville, Florida 32256. The Company’s mailing address and the location of its principal executive offices is 4345 Southpoint Boulevard, Jacksonville, Florida 32216.

Distribution and Electronic Availability of Proxy Material

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules allow companies to furnish proxy materials to shareholders via the Internet. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice”) by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you specifically request one. The Notice tells you how to access and review the Proxy Statement and our 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders, which includes the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2010, including financial statements, as well as how to submit your proxy over the Internet. If you received the Notice and would still like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, simply follow the instructions for requesting these materials included in the Notice.

The 2010 Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement and the 2010 Annual Report are available at www.ProxyVote.com.

The Notice was first provided, and these proxy solicitation materials and the Annual Report were first mailed and made available on the Internet, to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting on or about July 14, 2010.

Voting and Revocation of Proxies

Shareholders may vote either in person at the Annual Meeting or by proxy whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting. In order to vote by proxy you must either: (i) fill out the enclosed proxy card, date and sign it, and return it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope, (ii) vote by telephone (instructions are provided on the proxy card and on the Notice), or (iii) vote by Internet (instructions are provided on the proxy card and on the Notice). If you choose to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, and you hold your shares through a securities broker in street name, you must obtain a proxy from your broker and bring that proxy to the meeting.

Record Date and Outstanding Common Stock

Shareholders of record at the close of business on June 18, 2010, the record date for the Annual Meeting, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, 56,700,714 shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) were issued and outstanding and held by approximately 3,300 shareholders of record and approximately 13,400 beneficial holders.

Quorum, Abstentions, and Broker Non-Votes

Prior to the Annual Meeting, the Company will select one or more inspectors of election for the meeting. Such inspector(s) shall: (i) determine the number of shares of Common Stock represented at the meeting; (ii) determine the existence of a quorum and the validity and effect of proxies; (iii) receive, count, and tabulate ballots and votes; and (iv) determine the results thereof. The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on June 18, 2010, will constitute a quorum.

Abstentions and “broker non-votes,” if any, will be considered as shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but will not be counted as votes cast for or against any given matter. A “broker non-vote” occurs when proxies are received from brokers or nominees who have not received instructions from the beneficial owners or other persons entitled to vote with respect to a matter on which brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power to vote. Brokers will only have discretion to vote on the ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the independent registered public accounting firm. Due to a recent SEC rule change, brokers will no longer have discretion to vote on your behalf on the election of directors. Therefore, for your vote to be counted in the election of directors, you now will need to communicate your voting decisions to your bank, broker or other holder of record before the date of the Annual Meeting.

Voting of Shares and Votes Required

Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock on all matters voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes for directors and have no dissenters’ rights of appraisal in connection with any matter being presented at the Annual Meeting.

Assuming a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares of Common Stock represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and a majority of the votes cast will be required to approve the ratification of KPMG as the independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2011.

Mr. Rogers is a certified public accountant and holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Indiana University.

Mr. Rogers is a financial expert, with service as a partner of a major public accounting firm and experience with large complex public companies. The Board believes this experience qualifies him to serve as a director.

Director Independence

The Board has approved a set of director independence criteria for evaluating the independence of the Company’s directors. The director independence criteria are consistent with those adopted as part of the Nasdaq Stock Market corporate governance listing standards (the “Nasdaq Listing Standards”) for independent directors, and, in the case of Audit Committee members, the SEC standards for independent Audit Committee members. The Board has affirmatively determined that each director, other than Mr. Corless (the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer), is independent under those criteria. Therefore, seven of the eight directors of the Company are independent. An independent director serves as the Chairman of the Board and each committee of the Board. Interested parties, including shareholders, may communicate with directors through the process described in this Proxy Statement under the heading “Shareholder Communications with the Board of Directors.

 

5


To promote open discussion among independent directors, the independent directors of the Board met in executive sessions during fiscal year 2010 during each regularly scheduled meeting of the Board. Ms. Kesler, who was named Chairman in February 2010, and was Lead Independent Director prior to that time, presided over these sessions.

Process for Identifying and Evaluating Potential Directors

The Corporate Governance Committee solicits and receives recommendations and reviews the qualifications of potential director candidates. After review, the Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the Board candidates for election at the annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders and candidates to fill vacancies on the Board. Potential director candidates may also be nominated by the Company’s shareholders and are similarly reviewed by the Corporate Governance Committee, which makes recommendations to the Board. Additional information about the process for nominating directors and stockholder nominations is described under “Corporate Governance Committee.”

Board Leadership Structure

The Board is responsible for reviewing its leadership structure. The Board believes that the Company and its shareholders are best served by maintaining the flexibility to have any individual serve as Chairman of the Board based on the best interests of the Company at a given point in time, rather than mandating a particular structure. In making this decision, the Board considers many factors, including the composition and experience of the directors, the Company’s corporate governance practices, and the Chief Executive Officer’s working relationship with the Board. From March 2007 until February 2010, the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman were held by the same individual. In February 2010, in conjunction with the Chief Executive Officer transition that took place at that time, the Board determined that the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman should be held by two separate individuals, at which time, the Board elected Ms. Kesler as Chairman of the Board and Mr. Corless as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The decision to separate the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman at that time was made in recognition of Ms. Kesler’s leadership role on the Board and to allow Mr. Corless to focus on his new role and responsibilities of serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The full Board oversees enterprise risk as part of its role in reviewing and overseeing the implementation of the Company’s strategic plans and objectives. The risk oversight function is administered both in full Board discussions and in individual committees that are tasked by the Board with oversight of specific risks as more fully described in the summary of each committee below. On a periodic basis, the Board and its committees receive information and reports from management on the status of the risks inherent to the Company’s business and those associated with its strategy and business plans.

Board Meetings

During fiscal year 2010, the Board held twelve meetings. In addition to those meetings, directors attended meetings of individual Board committees. Overall attendance for directors at Board and committee meetings was on average 93%, and no director attended fewer than 75% of the total meetings held in fiscal year 2010.

All directors are encouraged to attend each Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company. Where a director is unable to attend an Annual Meeting in person, but is able to do so by electronic conferencing, the Company will arrange for the director’s participation by means where the director can hear, and be heard, by those present at the meeting. All of the Company’s directors attended the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Committees of the Board

The Company’s Board has five standing committees. All of these committees include only independent directors, except for the Executive Committee, which typically includes the Company’s Chief Executive Officer:

 

   

Audit Committee

 

   

Compensation Committee

 

   

Corporate Governance Committee

 

   

Executive Committee

 

   

Strategic Planning Committee

The Board’s committees perform the following functions:

Audit Committee. This Committee reports to the Board regarding the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm, the scope and results of annual audits and quarterly reviews, compliance with accounting and financial policies, and management’s procedures and policies relative to the adequacy of, and management’s assessment of, internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also prepares the Report of the Audit Committee, which is included in this Proxy Statement. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which can be found in the Corporate Governance section of the Company’s web site at www.pssworldmedical.com. The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Adair, Hecktman, and Rogers, with Mr. Adair serving as Chairman. The Board has determined that Messrs. Adair and Rogers are audit committee financial experts under the rules of the SEC and that each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate within the meaning of the Nasdaq Listing Standards. The Board also has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are independent for purposes of the applicable SEC rules and the Nasdaq Listing Standards. During fiscal year 2010, the Audit Committee held thirteen meetings.

Compensation Committee. This Committee reviews and approves salary, bonus, and other compensation for the Company’s executive officers. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which can be found in the Corporate Governance section of the Company’s web site at www.pssworldmedical.com. The members of the Compensation Committee are Ms. Kesler and Messrs. Carpenter and Crowe, with Mr. Carpenter serving as Chairman. The Board has determined that all members of the Compensation Committee are independent for purposes of the Nasdaq Listing Standards. During fiscal year 2010, the Compensation Committee held five meetings. Additional information regarding the Compensation Committee and its processes and procedures for the consideration and determination of executive compensation can be found in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of the Proxy Statement.

Corporate Governance Committee. The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending to the Board nominees for election to the Board, recommending Board committee structures and functions, assisting with self-evaluations conducted by the Board and its committees, and Chief Executive Officer succession planning. The Corporate Governance Committee charter can be found in the Corporate Governance section of the Company’s web site at www.pssworldmedical.com. The members of the Corporate Governance Committee are Ms. Kesler and Messrs. Halverson, Hecktman and Carpenter, with Mr. Halverson serving as Chairman. The Board has determined that all members of the Corporate Governance Committee are independent for purposes of the Nasdaq Listing Standards. During fiscal year 2010, the Corporate Governance Committee held eight meetings.

The Corporate Governance Committee evaluates candidates for the Board by reviewing their biographical information and qualifications. If the Corporate Governance Committee determines that a candidate is qualified to serve on the Board, such candidate is interviewed by at least one member of the Committee, the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Other members of the Board also have an opportunity to interview qualified candidates. The Corporate Governance Committee then determines, based on

 

7


the background information and the information obtained in the interviews, whether to recommend to the Board that the Company nominate the candidate for approval by the shareholders to fill a directorship. With respect to an incumbent director whom the Corporate Governance Committee is considering as a potential nominee for reelection, the Committee reviews and considers the incumbent director’s service to the Company during his or her term, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, and overall contribution to the Company, in addition to such person’s biographical information and qualifications.

The Corporate Governance Committee recommends nominees for election to the Board based on a number of qualifications, including, but not limited to, independence, character and integrity, financial literacy, level of education and business experience, sufficient time to devote to matters of the Board, and a commitment to represent the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders. The Corporate Governance Committee identifies potential candidates for the Board through a variety of business contacts, including current executive officers and directors, community leaders, and shareholders as a source for potential candidates for the Board. The Corporate Governance Committee may, to the extent it deems appropriate, retain a professional search firm and other advisors to identify potential nominees for the Board. The Corporate Governance Committee seeks to ensure that the composition of the Board at all times adheres to the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Listing Standards and reflects a variety of complementary experiences and backgrounds, particularly in the areas of management and leadership, sufficient to provide sound and prudent guidance with respect to the operations and interests of the Company. Consistent with these criteria for potential director candidates, the Board values, among other things, diversity of backgrounds, talents, skills, viewpoints, abilities, education, gender and experiences and believes that the diversity that currently exists on the Board provides significant benefits to the Company.

Executive Committee. This Committee is authorized to act with the full authority and in place of the Board at such times as its members deem necessary and appropriate.

Compensation of Non-Employee Directors

Each independent director received the following compensation during fiscal year 2010:

 

   

An annual retainer of $77,000 was paid in cash on a quarterly basis. Fiscal year 2010 first quarter retainer payments were based on an annual retainer of $80,000, while the remaining quarterly payments were based on an annual retainer of $76,000. This reflects the Board’s decision to reduce its cash retainer by 5% for fiscal year 2010, consistent with the base salary adjustments for the Company’s officers.

 

   

An annual retainer of approximately $60,000 paid quarterly in shares of the Company’s common stock. These shares vest immediately upon grant.

Supplemental retainers were $30,000 and $100,000 in fiscal year 2010 for the roles of Lead Director of the Board and the non-executive Chairman, respectively. In fiscal year 2010, Ms. Kesler served as Lead Independent Director through February 2, 2010 and as non-executive Chairman for the remainder of the fiscal year. She was paid pro-rata amounts for her service in the respective roles.

Additional supplemental retainers included 20,000 for the Chairman of the Audit Committee, $10,000 for the Chairman of the Executive Committee, $12,000 for all other Committee Chair positions and $10,000 for the non-Chair members of the Audit Committee. In each case, supplemental retainers were pro-rated for partial year service. Due to the extraordinary number of meetings and travel relating to the Chief Executive Officer transition, a special meeting fee of $1,500 per meeting was paid to each director for meetings during the transition period.

Directors who are employees of the Company are not compensated for service on the Board of Directors or any of its Committees.

The Company offers a deferred compensation plan to non-employee directors. Participants may elect to defer up to 100% of their annual retainer, meeting fees, director’s fees, and other cash compensation and invest their deferrals in a variety of investment options. A participant’s deferred compensation account balance will be distributed, at the election of the participant, in a single lump sum payment following the participant’s termination of service on the Board of Directors, or in up to ten annual installments. The deferred compensation account balance will be distributed in a lump sum payment upon the death of the participant, or in the event of a change in control of the Company.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 

 

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the following Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of the Company’s 2010 Proxy Statement. Based on its review and discussions with management, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Company’s Proxy Statement for 2010 and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2010.

The Compensation Committee:

Mr. Alvin R. Carpenter (Committee Chair)

Mr. Jeffrey C. Crowe

Ms. Delores M. Kesler

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Principles and Objectives of the Executive Compensation Programs

The Company’s compensation programs are governed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee is responsible for setting and approving the compensation of the Company’s executive officers, and periodically engages independent compensation consultants to aid the Committee in its review of the executive compensation program.

The goals of the executive compensation program are to:

 

   

enable the Company to attract and retain high-quality executives by providing total compensation opportunities and a compensation mix which are at or above the relevant employment market levels, but with reasonable fixed costs and appropriate incentive opportunities; and

 

   

motivate executives to act in the best interest of shareholders by providing substantial incentive opportunities to be earned through performance on direct or indirect measures of long-term shareholder value creation.

The Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee, composed entirely of independent directors, administers the Company’s executive compensation programs. The role of the Compensation Committee is to oversee the Company’s compensation and benefit plans and policies, administer its stock plans, including the review and approval of equity grants to officers, and review and approve all annual compensation decisions relating to the Company’s executive officers, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and the other executive officers named in the “Summary Compensation Table” (the “Named Executive Officers”).

The Compensation Committee reviews the executive officers’ compensation against peer groups, and also considers recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer regarding total compensation for those executives reporting directly to him as well as the other Company officers and approves compensation for such other executives and officers. Management provides to the Compensation Committee historical and prospective breakdowns of the total compensation components for each executive officer.

The Compensation Committee intends to continue its strategy of compensating executives through programs that emphasize performance-based incentive compensation. A significant portion of executive compensation is tied directly to the performance of the Company and is structured to ensure that there is an appropriate balance

 

15


between short and long-term financial performance of the Company, and alignment between executive compensation and the Company’s strategic plan, financial performance and shareholder return. During fiscal year 2010, the Compensation Committee engaged the consulting firm Towers Watson (formerly Towers Perrin) to perform a competitive pay analysis for the Company’s Named Executive Officers and to perform a review of the design of the Company’s incentive plans.

Competitive Benchmarking

The Compensation Committee annually reviews the elements of compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers using the following commercially available, broad-based, comparative market compensation survey reports developed by independent professional organizations (collectively, the “Survey Reports”):

 

   

2009 Towers Perrin General Industry U.S. Executive Compensation Databank

 

   

2009/2010 Watson Wyatt Survey Report on Top Management Compensation—U.S.

 

   

2009 U.S. Mercer Executive Benchmark Database

The Survey Reports provide market averages, ranges, and total compensation as well as the elements of compensation, such as base salary, short-term and long-term incentives, and perquisites. No particular industry peer group is selected for competitive review because the Company competes for executives within industries other than the healthcare distribution industry. The Compensation Committee believes that the size of the business and scope of the executive officer’s responsibility are the most important benchmarking factors for attracting and retaining executive officers. In establishing appropriate compensation targets for the Company’s executives, management correlates business revenue and compensation across various industries to compare executives with responsibilities of similar size and scope.

Based on the data derived from the Survey Reports, the Board or the Compensation Committee, as the case may be, has typically adjusted the annual base salary for each of the Named Executive Officers at the Compensation Committee’s annual review of each such officer’s base salary. The Compensation Committee normally conducts annual base salary reviews at the first scheduled Board meeting of each fiscal year which is typically in June of each year. As part of the Company’s overall cost-saving initiatives for fiscal year 2010, management enacted a 5% base salary reduction for all officers, including the Named Executive Officers, with an opportunity to earn back the salary if the Company exceeded target performance and the Compensation Committee approved this decision. Global economic conditions required the Company’s employees to make certain changes in the way the Company transacted business. As a result, management believed that the salary reduction better aligned management interests with employee and shareholder interests. The 5% salary reduction was earned back in fiscal year 2010 as the Company achieved target performance. All references herein to the fiscal year 2010 base salaries for the Named Executive Officers include the amount earned back relating to the 5% salary reduction.

How the Company Determines and Assesses Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee believes that the total compensation package available to the Company’s executives should be fair and competitive, should provide enhanced levels of financial reward based on higher levels of performance, and should be designed to recognize and reward both short and long-term performance based on growth in shareholder value. The Company sets compensation levels for the executive officers to be competitive, after careful consideration and analysis of the Survey Reports. No specific formula or weightings are used in regard to the allocation of the various pay elements within the Company’s executive compensation program. In general, the Company emphasizes annual performance incentives and long-term equity incentives over fixed compensation such as base salary. The Company believes its most senior executives should have a greater percentage of pay at risk (reflecting their increased ability to impact the Company’s performance) and a greater percentage of pay in the form of long-term incentives (reflecting greater ability to impact long-term shareholder value). The Compensation Committee intends to maintain this mix of variable and fixed

 

16


compensation by providing a greater proportion of total compensation to the Company’s executive officers in the form of variable “at-risk” compensation opportunities such as annual cash incentives, long-term equity, and non-equity incentives and a smaller proportion of fixed compensation in the form of base salary.

The Company has reviewed and conducted a risk assessment of its compensation policies and practices and has concluded that its compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The size and weighting of various components of compensation between the Named Executive Officers is directly related to the relative amounts of materiality, accountability, and responsibility of their respective positions, as determined by the Company.

Elements of Executive Compensation

The compensation program for Named Executive Officers consists of the following elements:

 

   

Annual base salaries

 

   

Annual cash incentive awards

 

   

Long-term equity incentive awards

 

   

Deferred compensation program

 

   

Other compensation

The Compensation Committee has selected these elements of compensation to create a flexible package that aligns executive compensation with the long-term performance requirements of the Company’s strategic plans.

Annual Base Salaries

Salaries are used to provide a fixed amount of compensation for the executive’s ongoing work. The salaries of the Named Executive Officers are reviewed on an annual basis, as well as at the time of a promotion or other change in responsibilities. Increases in salary are based on an evaluation of the individual’s performance and level of base pay compared to companies which are of comparable size to the Company and to companies with which the Company competes for executive talent.

The Compensation Committee’s review of base salaries of the Company’s executives takes into consideration the following:

 

   

experience and background;

 

   

record of achievement in their area of responsibility;

 

   

the growth in the Company’s revenue and earnings per share;

 

   

median salary levels for companies of comparable revenue size;

 

   

the likelihood of continued successful leadership of the Company; and

 

   

the Company’s budgets and general economic conditions.

As noted above, management enacted a 5% base salary reduction for all officers, including the Named Executive Officers, which was earned back during fiscal year 2010 and is included in the “Salary” column of the “Summary Compensation Table.”

With the promotion of Mr. Corless to President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Corless’s annual base salary was increased to $600,000 in February 2010. His salary was prorated for the period he held the position of President and Chief Executive Officer during fiscal year 2010.

 

17


Annual Cash Incentive Awards

The Company’s annual incentive bonus program was established to align executive behavior with the Company’s short-term performance goals. For fiscal year 2010, the Compensation Committee established a target bonus based on a percentage of base salary for each of the Named Executive Officers based upon an analysis of incentive compensation opportunities of comparable positions in companies which are of comparable size to the Company and to companies with which the Company competes for executive talent. The actual amount of annual incentive earned by the Named Executive Officers is determined based on the Company’s level of achievement of pre-established performance goals related to earnings per share as well as achieving certain critical tasks, consistent with a business plan reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors and an annual incentive compensation plan approved by the Compensation Committee. The total potential payment may range from 50 – 200% of the executives target bonus depending on performance, with no payout if threshold performance goals are not met.

The fiscal year 2010 target and actual cash incentive awards paid to each of the Named Executive Officers are shown in the table below. The actual cash incentive awards are also shown in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” on page 22.

Calculated based on the Named Executive Officers’ salary at the beginning of the fiscal year.

 

(2)

As a result of the separation agreement between the Company and Mr. Smith, all annual cash incentive awards were forfeited. See “Departure of Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer” on page 26 for further discussion.

The Chief Executive Officer’s and Chief Financial Officer’s annual incentive compensation is based solely on achieving target earnings per share. Annual incentive compensation for other Named Executive Officers is based on a combination of achieving target earnings per share and certain individual goals. As the Company achieved 105% of its earnings per share goal, and each Named Executive Officer achieved their determined individual goals, actual payouts were 200% of target, pursuant to the formula discussed above.

Effective February 2, 2010, the Company and its former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, David A. Smith, mutually agreed that Mr. Smith’s employment with Company would terminate, pursuant to a Separation Agreement dated February 2, 2010. The Separation Agreement provided that all annual cash incentive awards were forfeited. See “Departure of Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer” on page 26 for further discussion. Upon Mr. Smith’s departure, Mr. Corless was promoted to the position of President and Chief Executive Officer. The position of President and Chief Executive Officer historically has had a target annual cash incentive percentage of 80% of base salary as determined by the Compensation Committee. For performance during fiscal year 2010, the Compensation Committee provided an additional discretionary bonus of $77,500 to Mr. Corless. This amount is reflected in the “Bonus” column of the “Summary Compensation Table.

The Compensation Committee believes that the target earnings per share goals and individual goals set each year are challenging but attainable and designed to properly motivate management. Achievement of these targets is uncertain at the time such targets are established.

Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards

On June 7, 2006, the Board of Directors approved the PSS World Medical, Inc. 2006 Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), a stock incentive plan under which equity may be granted at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to the Company’s officers, directors, and employees. The 2006 Plan became effective as of August 24, 2006, the date on which shareholders approved the plan. Grants under the 2006 Plan may be made in the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted or deferred stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalents, performance-based cash awards, and other stock-based awards.

Beginning in fiscal year 2008, the Company has granted (i) performance-based restricted stock units (“Performance Shares”) and (ii) performance-accelerated restricted stock or performance-accelerated restricted stock units (“PARS”) to its Named Executive Officers under the Company’s 2006 Incentive Plan in each of the most recently completed fiscal years to align executive compensation with growth in shareholder value.

The Performance Shares are granted annually and vest three years from the date of grant and convert to shares of common stock based on the Company’s achievement of certain compound earnings per share growth targets. These awards, which are denominated as a target number of shares, will be forfeited if performance falls below the threshold level and may vest up to 250% of the target number of shares for exceptional performance.

Target goals under these awards are the product of a base fiscal year earnings per share metric compounded annually utilizing the rates outlined in the table below. The calculation of the earnings per share growth target excludes the impact of any changes in generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by standard setting bodies prior to vesting of such Performance Shares. The following table depicts target growth rates and potential payments under the plan:

 

     Threshold                       Maximum  

Compound Growth Rate

   10   12   15   18   21

Payout

   50   100   150   200   250

The PARS are granted annually and cliff vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date, with an opportunity for accelerated vesting after three years if the Company achieves or exceeds the compound growth rate of 15%. Prior to fiscal year 2008, the Company granted restricted stock with an annual vesting in 25% increments based on the executive’s continued employment with the Company. PARS were selected as an alternative long-term equity incentive vehicle by the Compensation Committee due to the increased retention value of a longer cliff vest in conjunction with the acceleration clause, which the Compensation Committee believes better aligns the award with long-term shareholder value.

Performance Shares and PARS Issued in Fiscal Year 2010

Target awards of Performance Shares granted to the Named Executive Officers during fiscal year 2010 were as follows: Gary A. Corless, 22,058; David M. Bronson, 22,058; John F. Sasen, Sr. 14,705; Bradley J. Hilton, 14,705; and Kevin P. English, 14,705. Performance Shares granted and subsequently forfeited by David A. Smith upon his departure were 44,117 shares. The fiscal year 2012 target goal under these awards is the product of fiscal year 2009 earnings per share of $0.96 compounded annually for fiscal years 2010, 2011, and 2012 at a rate of 12%.

The number of PARS granted to the Named Executive Officers in fiscal year 2010 was as follows: Gary A. Corless, 22,058; David M. Bronson, 22,058; John F. Sasen, Sr. 14,705; Bradley J. Hilton, 14,705; and Kevin P. English 14,705. PARS granted in fiscal year 2010 and subsequently forfeited by David A. Smith upon his departure were 44,117 units. The fiscal year 2012 goal for accelerated vesting of these awards is the product of fiscal year 2009 earnings per share of $0.96 compounded annually for fiscal years 2010, 2011, and 2012 at a rate of 15%.

Summary of Long Term Incentive Awards with a Fiscal Year 2010 Measurement Period

Fiscal year 2010 earnings per share exceeded the earnings per share target for Performance Shares and PARS issued in fiscal year 2008. Compounded earnings per share over the performance period was 20.8% which translated to a payout percentage of 246% of the original amount of Performance Shares issued and accelerated the vesting of PARS. Performance Shares granted in fiscal year 2008 which vested on June 27, 2010, were as follows: Gary A. Corless, 39,819; David M. Bronson, 40,557; John F. Sasen, Sr. 26,300; Bradley J. Hilton, 28,759; and Kevin P. English, 28,759. PARS awarded in fiscal year 2008, which vested on June 27, 2010, were as follows: Gary A. Corless, 16,200; David M. Bronson, 16,500; John F. Sasen, Sr. 10,700; Bradley J. Hilton, 11,700; and Kevin P. English, 11,700.

Additional Equity Grants

During fiscal year 2010, the Named Executive Officers received the following additional equity grants of restricted stock for retention purposes to maintain management continuity throughout the Chief Executive Officer transition: Gary A. Corless, 29,282; David M. Bronson, 17,569; John F. Sasen, Sr. 16,251; Bradley J. Hilton, 13,665; and Kevin P. English, 13,665. Awards were granted in the form of time-based restricted stock which cliff vest on the third anniversary date of grant date.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company offers a deferred compensation plan to qualified executives, management, and sales representatives. This plan is described in the section “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation during Fiscal Year 2010.”

Other Compensation

The Company provides certain perquisites and other benefits to its executives. Other benefits include annual matched contributions to executive officers’ 401(k) and deferred compensation plan accounts, life insurance coverage, the payment of taxes on certain compensation, and severance payments upon the occurrence of certain events. Perquisites are detailed in the narrative following the “Summary Compensation Table.” Subsequent to fiscal year 2010, the Company discontinued the use of perquisites. See “Changes in Executive Compensation during Fiscal Year 2011” below for further discussion.

Equity Grant Practices

Historically, the Company has not timed the grant of equity awards to coincide with, precede or follow the release of material non-public information. Generally, long-term equity incentive awards are granted to the Named Executive Officers in June, subsequent to providing annual earnings guidance to investors at the beginning of each fiscal year. Equity grants to the Named Executive Officers are approved by the Compensation Committee prior to issuance.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Senior management stock ownership guidelines were adopted by the Company on March 23, 2005. In general, the Company believed members of its senior management team should demonstrate alignment with the Company’s strategic plans and shareholders whenever possible. Accordingly, the Company believed the appropriate guidelines for senior management stock ownership should be at least 1x annual base salary, with 2x annual base salary owned by the Chief Financial Officer, and 3x annual base salary owned by the Chief Executive Officer. Stock ownership includes shares of Company stock owned directly and within the Company’s 401(k) plan, time-based restricted stock, performance accelerated restricted stock and restricted stock units and the intrinsic value of unexercised options. Each of the Named Executive Officers met the stock ownership guidelines as of April 2, 2010. The Company subsequently changed these ownership guidelines. See “Changes in Executive Compensation during Fiscal Year 2011” below for further discussion.

Other Considerations

The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 disallows the deduction for certain annual compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to certain executive officers of the Company, unless the compensation qualifies as “performance-based” under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). The Company’s 2006 Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) permits the grant of stock options and other awards that are fully deductible under Code Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. It is the Compensation Committee’s intent to strike a balance between attempting to preserve the deductibility of executive compensation while retaining the discretion necessary to compensate executive officers in a manner commensurate with performance and the competitive market of executive talent.

Changes in Executive Compensation during Fiscal Year 2011

Annual Base Salaries

The Compensation Committee has evaluated fiscal year 2011 base salaries for the Named Executive Officers. Consideration was given to each individual’s performance and level of base pay compared to companies which are of comparable size to the Company and to companies with which the Company competes for executive talent. For fiscal year 2011, annual base salaries for the Named Executive Officers were set to the following amounts: Gary A. Corless, $640,000; David M. Bronson, $420,000; John F. Sasen, $358,000; Bradley J. Hilton, $325,000; and Kevin P. English, $325,000. These amounts include changes to perquisites and other benefits discussed below.

Perquisites and Other Benefits

The Company has historically provided certain perquisites (which include automobile allowance, club dues, income tax preparation services, and annual physicals) and other benefits to its executives. Effective April 5, 2010, as part of an ongoing review of best practices in compensation, these perquisites were discontinued.

Performance Shares and Performance Accelerated Restricted Stock Units

In June, 2010, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved awards of Performance Shares and PARS granted under the 2006 Plan to the Company’s Named Executive Officers which will vest in fiscal year 2013.

Target awards of Performance Shares granted to the Named Executive Officers were as follows: Gary A. Corless, 33,723; David M. Bronson, 16,861; John F. Sasen, Sr. 11,241; Bradley J. Hilton, 11,241; and Kevin P. English 11,241. The target goals under these awards are the product of fiscal year 2010 earnings per share of $1.18 compounded annually for fiscal years 2011, 2012, and 2013 at a rate of 12%.

The number of PARS granted to the Named Executive Officers was as follows: Gary A. Corless, 33,723; David M. Bronson, 16,861; John F. Sasen, Sr., 11,241; Bradley J. Hilton, 11,241; and Kevin P. English 11,241. The goal for accelerated vesting of these awards are the product of fiscal year 2010 earnings per share of $1.18 compounded annually for fiscal years 2011, 2012, and 2013 at a rate of 15%.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Revised senior management stock ownership guidelines were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors on June 10, 2010. Accordingly, the Company believes the appropriate stock ownership guidelines for senior management should be at least 1x annual base salary, with certain officers including the Named Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer owning at least 3x annual base salary, and the Chief Executive Officer owning at least 5x annual base salary. Stock ownership includes shares of Company stock owned directly and within the Company’s 401(k) plan, time-based restricted stock, performance accelerated restricted stock and restricted stock units and the intrinsic value of unexercised options. The officer will have six years from the date of appointment to a position to reach the stated stock ownership level.

See “Departure of Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer” below for further discussion.

 

(2)

Reflects additional bonus paid to Mr. Corless which equates to the additional prorated bonus he would have received under the Company’s annual incentive bonus program for the last two months of fiscal year 2010 (his first two months as Chief Executive Officer), based on Mr. Corless’s new base salary and the target bonus opportunity previously in place for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

 

(3)

Reflects the grant date fair value of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance accelerated restricted stock, and performance share units granted in the fiscal year. The grant date fair value of the award was determined in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), based on the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and the probable outcome of performance-based vesting conditions, excluding the effects of estimated forfeitures. The amounts in 2009 and 2008 have been restated from previous proxy disclosures to reflect changes in SEC rules. There were no forfeitures during fiscal years 2010, 2009, and 2008 other than the forfeiture of Mr. Smith’s restricted stock and units in fiscal year 2010. Assumptions and methods utilized by the Company in valuing the stock awards are described in Footnote 14, Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, and in the Critical Accounting Estimates section of Item 7,MD&A, of the Company’s fiscal year 2010 Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The total grant date value of the stock awards, assuming the highest level of performance conditions will be achieved under the relevant performance shares, granted in fiscal years 2010, 2009, and 2008 were as follows: Mr. Corless, $1,912,439, $1,312,486, and $1,050,084; Mr. Smith $2,624,962, $2,624,972, and $2,100,168; Mr. Bronson, $1,672,440, $1,312,486, and $1,069,530; Mr. Sasen $1,207,930, $874,969, and $693,574; and Mr. Hilton, $1,154,943, $874,969, and $758,394, respectively. The total grant date value of the stock awards, assuming the highest level of performance conditions will be achieved under the relevant performance shares, granted in fiscal year 2010 to Mr. English was $1,154,943.

 

(4)

Reflects the grant date fair value of stock option awards granted in the fiscal year. The grant date fair value of the awards was determined in accordance with ASC 718. The amounts in 2009 and 2008 have been restated from previous proxy disclosures to reflect changes in SEC rules. These awards were forfeited during fiscal year 2010. Assumptions and methods utilized by the Company in valuing the stock awards are described in Footnote 14, Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, of the Company’s fiscal year 2010 Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Under the terms of the separation agreement between the Company and David A. Smith, Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, non-equity and equity-based incentive plan awards were forfeited. See “Departure of Former Chief Executive Officer” section on page 26 for further discussion related to Mr. Smith’s separation agreement.

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into employment agreements with the Named Executive Officers that include the terms described below.

Term. The Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements were for initial terms of three years, in the case of Messrs. Smith, Bronson, Sasen, and Corless, and two years, in the case of Messrs. Hilton and English. Thereafter, each agreement automatically extended by one year on each anniversary of the effective date, unless either party elects not to extend. Upon a change in control of the Company, as defined in the employment agreements, the term will automatically extend through the later of (i) the third anniversary (in the case of Messrs. Smith, Sasen, Corless, and Bronson) or the second anniversary (in the case of Messrs. Hilton and English) of the date of the change in control or (ii) the normal expiration of the then-current term.

Salary and Benefits. Under the terms of current employment agreements, each Named Executive Officer is entitled to a minimum annual salary and is entitled to participate in all incentive, savings, retirement and welfare benefit plans generally made available to employees or other senior executives of the Company.

Termination. Employment may be terminated at any time by the Company with or without “cause” (as defined in the agreement), or by the executive with or without “good reason” (as defined in the agreement). Depending on the reason for the termination and when it occurs, the executive will be entitled to certain severance benefits, as described below. In addition, an employment agreement will be terminated upon the death, disability or retirement of the executive.

If a Named Executive Officer is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason, he will be entitled to (i) unpaid base salary and accrued benefits through the termination date, plus (ii) a severance amount equal to two times his base salary and target annual bonus, in the case of Mr. Smith, or one times his base salary and target annual bonus, in the case of Messrs. Corless and Bronson, one times his base salary, in the case of Messrs. Sasen and Hilton, or 75% of his base salary and target annual bonus, in the case of Mr. English. The Company will also provide the executive with (i) welfare benefit plan coverage following such termination for two years, in the case of Mr. Smith, one year, in the case of Messrs. Sasen, Corless, Bronson and Hilton, or nine months in the case of Mr. English, and (ii) reimbursement for outplacement services up to $60,000 in the case of Mr. Smith, $30,000, in the case of Messrs. Corless, Sasen, and Bronson, and $15,000, in the case of Messrs. Hilton and English. In the event that such termination follows or is in connection with a change of control, in lieu of the benefits described above, the Company will pay the executive (i) his accrued salary and benefits through the date of termination; (ii) a pro rata payment of his annual bonus for the year of termination; (iii) a severance amount equal to three times the sum of his annual base salary and 150% of his target annual bonus, in the case of Mr. Smith, two times his annual base salary and target annual bonus, in the case of Messrs. Corless and Bronson, two times his annual base salary, in the case of Messrs. Sasen and Hilton, or 1.5 times his annual salary and target annual bonus, in the case of Mr. English; (iv) welfare benefit plan coverage for a period of three years, in the case of Mr. Smith, two years, in the case of Messrs. Sasen, Corless, Bronson and Hilton, or 1.5 years, in the case of Mr. English; (v) the outplacement service reimbursement described above; and (vi) in the case of Mr. Smith, full-time executive secretarial assistance for a period of one year following termination.

If any of the Named Executive Officers is terminated for cause or resigns from the Company without good reason, he will be entitled to his accrued salary and benefits through the date of termination, and, in the case of Messrs. Sasen and Hilton, continuation of welfare benefit plan coverage for a period of 30 days and a lump sum severance payment equal to 30 days’ salary. If a Named Executive Officer’s employment is terminated by reason of his disability or retirement, he will be entitled under his employment agreement to his accrued salary and

 

25


benefits and any disability or retirement benefits that may apply. If a Named Executive Officer’s employment is terminated by reason of his death, his estate will be entitled to accrued salary and benefits and any death benefits that may apply, and in the case of Mr. Sasen, a lump sum payment equal to two months base salary, and in the case of Mr. Hilton, a lump sum payment equal to one and one-half months base salary. Each of the employment agreements provides that the Named Executive Officer will be entitled to a tax gross-up payment from the Company to cover any excise tax liability he may incur as a result of payments or benefits, but such gross-up payment will be made only if the after-tax benefit to the executive of such tax gross-up is at least $50,000. If not, the benefits would be reduced to an amount that would not trigger the excise tax.

Restrictive Covenants. Each Named Executive officer has agreed in his employment agreement not to disclose confidential information or compete with the Company, and not to solicit the Company’s customers or recruit its employees, for a period of 18 months following the termination of his employment or the earlier occurrence of a change of control of the Company.

Departure of Former Chief Executive Officer

By agreement dated February 2, 2010 (the “Separation Agreement”), the Company and Mr. Smith, who was the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, mutually agreed that Mr. Smith’s employment with the Company would terminate effective February 2, 2010 (the “Date of Termination”).

Under the terms of his then existing employment agreement and the Separation Agreement, and in exchange for the observation by Mr. Smith of certain restrictive covenants for a period of 24 months from the Date of Termination, and a general release of claims, Mr. Smith became entitled to: (i) a severance payment of $2.718 million (calculated as twice Mr. Smith’s annual salary and target bonus amounts), (ii) continuation of group health benefits for Mr. Smith and his dependents for a period of two years, (iii) the payment of accrued base salary and vacation balances through the date of termination, and (iv) an additional payment of $680,000, related to the extension of his restrictive covenants. Mr. Smith was also reimbursed for reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses related to the negotiation of the Separation Agreement, not to exceed $25,000, and the reimbursement of reasonable business expenses incurred through the date of termination in the amount of $2,500. Also pursuant to his existing employment agreement and the Separation Agreement, Mr. Smith is entitled to reimbursements for outplacement and counseling expenses for a period of one year following the Date of Termination, not to exceed $60,000. Mr. Smith was permitted to exercise his vested stock options as contractually provided for in each option grant agreement. Any unvested equity and non-equity awards were forfeited on the Date of Termination.

(1)

Executive contributions during the last fiscal year were composed of: (i) amounts related to executive contributions in the last fiscal year, which are included in 2010 compensation on the “Summary Compensation Table” under the column titled “Salary”: Mr. Corless $68,330, Mr. Smith $59,771, Mr. Bronson $51,300, Mr. Sasen $47,453, Mr. Hilton $26,600, and Mr. English $53,200 and (ii) contributions that were reported as compensation during fiscal year 2009 under “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table,” as they were contributions made from the fiscal year 2009 bonus that was paid by the Company in fiscal year 2010.

 

(2)

Amounts are reported as 2010 compensation in the “All Other Compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table.”

Under the Company’s Amended and Restated Officer Deferred Compensation Plan, the Named Executive Officers can elect to defer up to 100% of their total compensation including salary, bonuses, and other non-equity incentive plan awards. The Company’s matching contribution ranges from 75% to 125% of the participant’s deferral, limited to 15% of total compensation for Messrs Smith, Corless, Bronson, and Sasen, or 10% of total

 

29


compensation for Mr. Hilton and Mr. English. Deferred amounts are credited with earnings or losses based on the rate of return of investments selected by the executive, which the executive may change at any time. During fiscal year 2010, the Named Executive Officers realized rates of return ranging from 17.6% to 57.1% on their portfolio of fund investments.

Participant contributions are always 100% vested. Company matching contributions vest in 20% increments beginning after participating in the plan for 4 years and become fully vested after participating in the plan for 8 years, or earlier upon the participant’s death, normal retirement (defined as termination of employment after age 60, or after age 55 with ten years of service with the Company), disability, or in the event of a change in control if the successor company terminates the plan or if the participant’s employment is terminated without cause or if the participant resigns for good reason within 24 months of the change in control. Vested plan benefits are payable in accordance with the participant’s deferral election, either in a lump sum on a specified future date, in a lump sum upon the participant’s death, or in a number of equal annual installments (between 5 and 20) upon the participant’s termination of employment or disability. The Company has purchased corporate-owned life insurance policies for certain participants in the Program to fund the future payments related to the deferred compensation liability.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The Company has entered into employment agreements with each of the Named Executive Officers, and also maintains certain other plans and arrangements in which the Named Executive Officers participate, that provide benefits to the Named Executive Officers in the event of a termination of employment under certain circumstances. The following table summarizes the value of payments and benefits that each of the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Smith) would be entitled to receive assuming that a termination of employment occurred on April 2, 2010, under the circumstances shown (Mr. Smith’s employment with the Company terminated effective February 2, 2010, and the payments and benefits paid to Mr. Smith in connection with his termination are summarized in “Departure of Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer”). The amounts shown in the table exclude distributions under the 401(k) retirement plan and other benefits that are generally available to all of the Company’s salaried employees.

Severance calculations do not take into account the 5% salary reduction for fiscal year 2010. If the termination occurs after or in connection with a change in control of the Company, the executive will receive a lump sum severance amount equal to two times his base salary and target annual bonus in the case of Messrs. Corless and Bronson, 2 times his base salary in the case of Messrs. Sasen and Hilton, or 150% of his base salary and target annual bonus in the case of Mr. English.

(3)

Employment agreements with the Named Executive Officers provide for outplacement expenses for a period of one year following termination, subject to a maximum of $30,000 in the case of Messrs. Sasen, Corless, and Bronson, or $15,000 in the case of Messrs. Hilton and English.

 

(4)

Reflects payout of the executive’s vested balance under the Company’s Officer Deferred Compensation Plan, which is reflected and described in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. In the event the executive’s death, disability or normal retirement, or in the event of a change in control if the successor terminates the plan or the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or if the executive resigns for good reason within 24 months of the change in control, the executive will become 100% vested in his accounts, including the Company’s matching contributions, discretionary Company contributions and allocated return thereon.

 

(5)

Employment agreements with Messrs. Sasen and Hilton provide that if the executive’s employment is terminated by reason of his death, his estate will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to two months base salary in the case of Mr. Sasen, or one and one-half months base salary in the case of Mr. Hilton, in addition to the accrued obligations.

(9)

Employment agreements with the Named Executive Officers provide for a pro rata bonus equal to the executive’s annual bonus for the year in which the termination occurs, determined at the end of the year based on actual performance results, if such termination occurs after or in connection with a change in control. Amounts shown reflect the executive’s earned bonus for fiscal year 2010.

 

(10)

Employment agreements with the Named Executive Officers provide that the Company will reimburse the executive for any excise taxes imposed pursuant to Section 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code and any income and excise taxes that are payable by the executive as a result of any such reimbursement (the “280G Gross-Up Payment”), provided that the net after-tax benefit to the executive is at least $50,000 as compared with the net after-tax proceeds to the executive of a “cut-back” to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of the excise tax. The calculation of the estimated 280G Gross-Up Payment is based upon a 280G excise tax rate of 20%, a 35% federal income tax rate, a 1.45% Medicare tax rate and a 6% state income tax rate.

  (1)

The 1999 Broad-Based Employee Stock Plan is the only equity compensation plan that is not approved by shareholders. Under this plan, 2,600,000 shares of Common Stock were originally reserved for issuance to employees and consultants. Since inception of the 2006 Incentive Plan, there have been no further grants under this plan. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors had discretion to make grants under this plan in the form of nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, or unrestricted stock awards. The exercise price of options granted were at least the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Unless otherwise specified by the Compensation Committee, options were fully vested and exercisable three years from the date of grant.

 

  (2)

Includes (a) 314,559 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under the Company’s 1999 Long Term Incentive Plan, with a weighted-average exercise price of $6.85; (b) 150,946 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under the Company’s Amended and Restated Directors’ Stock Plan, with a weighted-average exercise price of $8.08; and (c) 676,300 share underlying unvested restricted stock units issued pursuant to the 2006 Incentive Plan, based upon maximum possible payout of the awards granted in fiscal year 2009 and 2010 and actual awards earned subsequent to fiscal year 2010 for the fiscal year 2008 grants. Amount does not include 968,252 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding pursuant to unvested restricted stock awards.

 

  (3)

Restricted stock unit awards do not have an exercise price and therefore are not included in the calculation of the weighted-average exercise price.

 

  (4)

Includes (a) 276,065 shares available under the 2004 Non-Employee Directors Plan and (b) 2,766,997 shares available under the 2006 Incentive Plan for issuance pursuant to awards of restricted stock, unrestricted stock, or performance awards. Amounts based upon maximum possible payout of the restricted stock unit awards granted in fiscal year 2009 and 2010 and actual restricted stock unit awards vested subsequent to fiscal year 2010 for the fiscal year 2008 grants.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

The following directors served on the Compensation Committee during fiscal year 2010: Mr. Carpenter, Mr. Crowe, and Ms. Kesler. None of such persons was an officer or employee of the Company during fiscal year 2010 or at any time in the past. During fiscal year 2010, none of the members of the Compensation Committee had any relationship requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. No executive officer of the Company served on the compensation committee or board of any company that employed any member of the Company’s Compensation Committee or Board of Directors.

PROPOSAL 2—RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

General Information about KPMG LLP

Although shareholder ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required by the Company’s bylaws or otherwise, the Company is submitting the selection of KPMG LLP to the Company’s shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance practice. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. If the shareholders do not ratify the Audit Committee’s selection, the Audit Committee will take that fact into consideration, together with such other factors it deems relevant, in determining its next selection of the independent registered public accounting firm.

In choosing the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee conducts a comprehensive review of the qualifications of those individuals who will lead and serve on the engagement team, the quality control procedures the firm has established, and any issue raised by the most recent quality control review of the firm. The review also includes matters required to be considered under the SEC rules on auditor independence, including the nature and extent of non-audit services to ensure that they will not impair the independence of the accountants.

KPMG LLP served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2010 and have been selected as the independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year ending April 1, 2011. Representatives of KPMG LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions and to make such statements as they may desire.

The aggregate fees billed for professional services by KPMG LLP during fiscal years 2010 and 2009 for various services were as follows:

 

     2010    2009

Audit fees(1)

   $ 868,370    $ 1,166,253

Audit related fees(2)

     2,981      30,000

Tax service fees(3)

     239,964      224,705
             

Total

   $ 1,111,315    $ 1,420,958
             

 

(1)

Audit fees paid to KPMG LLP by the Company were principally for services rendered for the audit of the consolidated financial statements and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, the reviews of the Company’s quarterly financial statements, consultations on matters reflected in the consolidated financial statements, consents to, and reviews of, SEC filings, and the comfort letter issued in relation to the Company’s debt offering in fiscal year 2009.

 

(2)

Audit related fees paid to KPMG LLP by the Company were principally for services rendered for the audit of the Company’s benefit plan.

 

(3)

Tax service fees paid to KPMG LLP by the Company were principally for services rendered for all tax services other than those included in “audit” and “audit related” fees, including tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice.

 

34


Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is subject to a specific budgeted amount. Management is required to seek pre-approval of services that will exceed the budget for services that are not detailed in an existing pre-approval policy. The Chairman of the Audit Committee has been delegated the authority by the Audit Committee to pre-approve certain services between regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee. Management is required to report quarterly to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval policy, and the fees for the services performed to date. During fiscal year 2010, all services were pre-approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with this policy.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT THE COMPANY’S SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF KPMG LLP AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE 2011 FISCAL YEAR.

 

35


REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

 

 

The Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements and management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting with management, which has primary responsibility for the financial statements and related internal controls. KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2010, is responsible for expressing opinions on the conformity of the Company’s audited financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Committee has discussed with KPMG the matters that are required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1. AU Section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. The Committee has also received from KPMG the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding KPMG’s independence from the Company and has discussed with KPMG its independence from the Company. The Committee also concluded that KPMG’s provision of audit and non-audit services, as described above under the heading “General Information about KPMG LLP,” to the Company and its affiliates is compatible with KPMG’s independence.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2010, and selected KPMG as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the fiscal year ending April 1, 2011.

This report is provided by the following independent directors, who constitute the Committee:

Charles E. Adair, Chairman

Melvin L. Hecktman

Stephen H. Rogers

Any proposal pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act that a shareholder may desire to have included in the Company’s proxy materials for presentation at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must be received by the Company at its executive offices on or prior to March 16, 2011. Proposals should be directed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary of the Company, PSS World Medical, Inc., 4345 Southpoint Boulevard, Jacksonville, Florida 32216. Only proper proposals under Rule 14a-8 that are timely received will be included in the proxy statement and proxy card for our 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Shareholders intending to present business at the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8 must comply with the requirements set forth in the Company’s Bylaws. To bring business before an annual meeting, the Company’s Bylaws require, among other things, that the shareholder’s written notice thereof to the Secretary of the Company be received at the Company’s executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting; provided, however, in the event the date of the Annual Meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary date, notice by a shareholder must be delivered not earlier than the 120th day prior to such Annual Meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such Annual Meeting or, if

 

38


the date of the annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to such Annual Meeting, the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. Therefore, the Company must receive notice of a shareholder proposal submitted other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8 no sooner than April 26, 2011 and no later than May 26, 2011. If the notice is received before April 26, 2011 or after May 26, 2011, it will be considered untimely and the shareholder will not be entitled to present the proposal at the 2011 Annual Meeting.

Shareholders intending to propose a director candidate to be considered and voted on the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting must comply with the requirements set forth in the Company’s Bylaws. To propose a director candidate to be considered and voted on at an Annual Meeting, the Company’s Bylaws require, among other things, that the shareholder’s written notice thereof complying with the Bylaws to the Secretary of the Company be delivered and received at the Company’s executive officers not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting; provided, however, in the event the date of the Annual Meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary date, or in the event directors are to be elected at a special meeting, notice by a shareholder must be delivered not earlier than the 120th day prior to such Annual Meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such Annual Meeting or, if the date of the annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to such annual meeting, the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. Therefore, the Company must receive notice of a shareholder proposal regarding a director candidate to be considered and voted on at the 2011 Annual Meeting no sooner than April 26, 2011 and no later than May 26, 2011. If the notice is received before April 26, 2011 or after May 26, 2011, it will be considered untimely and the shareholder will not be entitled to propose a director candidate to be considered at the 2011 Annual Meeting.

OTHER MATTERS

 

 

Expenses of Solicitation

The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to the use of the mail, directors, officers or other employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally or by telephone. The Company does not expect to pay any compensation for the solicitation of proxies, but may reimburse brokers, custodians or other persons holding stock in their names or in the names of the nominees for their expenses in sending proxy materials to principals and obtaining their instructions.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of the Company’s Common Stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Copies of those reports must also be furnished to the Company. Based solely on a review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 and amendments thereto furnished to the Company, or written representations that no annual forms (Form 5) were required, the Company believes that, during fiscal year 2010, for such persons there were no late reports, no transactions that were not reported on a timely basis, and no known failures to file a required form, except that, due to an administrative error, Mr. Weiner reported one late transaction on a Form 4 that should have been reported earlier on a Form 4.

Annual Report on Form 10-K

A copy of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2010, including financial statements, exhibits and any amendments thereto, as filed with the SEC may be obtained without charge upon written request to: Robert Weiner, Vice President, Investor Relations, PSS World Medical, Inc., 4345 Southpoint Boulevard, Jacksonville, Florida 32216.
