Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e)    On October 29, 2015, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of On Assignment, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain of the Company’s named executive officers under the Company’s 2010 Incentive Award Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). These awards have a grant date of October 29, 2015 and vesting is conditioned upon achievement of a positive Adjusted EBITDA performance target over the three-year period beginning on January 1, 2016, and continued service to the Company. Subject to the conditions stated above, the awards will vest 50 percent each on the fourth and fifth anniversaries of the grant date. The number of RSUs granted to each executive is set forth below:

Name
Title
Number of RSUs Granted
Randolph C. Blazer
President, Apex Systems, LLC (“Apex”)
49,560
Michael J. McGowan
President, Oxford Global Resources, LLC and COO of the Company
49,560
Edward L. Pierce
EVP, CFO of the Company
22,527
Theodore S. Hanson
President, Lab Support Division and CFO of Apex
22,527

On November 2, 2015, the Committee took additional actions related to compensation for these named executive officers. The Committee increased the 2016 target and maximum cash incentive bonus amounts for Messrs. Blazer, Hanson and McGowan to be 70 percent and 140 percent of the executive's base salary, respectively, and 60 percent and 120 percent of base salary, respectively, for Mr. Pierce. The Committee also increased the value of their 2016 annual RSU grants which will be granted on January 4, 2016 and will vest based on the achievement of multiple individual performance target requirements over the three-year period in which they vest. The number of RSUs to be granted will be determined by dividing the value of RSU grant set forth below for each individual by the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant:

Name
Value of 2016 Annual RSU Grant
Randolph C. Blazer
$
1,100,000

Michael J. McGowan
$
1,100,000

Edward L. Pierce
$
700,000

Theodore S. Hanson
$
750,000


The Committee did not make any changes at this time to the annual compensation of Peter Dameris, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. However, at its November 2 meeting, the Committee awarded Mr. Dameris a one-time grant of 16,322 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan with a November 2 grant date and no vesting requirements. The Committee wanted to reward Mr. Dameris for the successful acquisition and integration of Creative Circle, LLC, the completion of the Company’s strategic plan and the Company’s very successful third quarter performance.
