ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

 

On April 17, 2015, the Board of Directors of The Standard Register Company (the Company) approved a Key Employee Incentive Plan (the KEIP).  On April 19, 2015, the Board submitted the KEIP to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the Court) for approval.  


The KEIP currently contemplates that cash incentive payments will be made to 49 key executives and senior employees of the Company if specified financial performance goals are achieved.  These financial performance goals include revenue targets and targets based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, restructuring and pension amortization and settlement for the Companys 2015 fiscal year.  The KEIP additionally contemplates that proportionally-adjusted incentive payments will be made in the event that specified proportions of these financial performance goals are met, subject to a maximum potential payout of approximately $4,344,064.  Certain details of these financial performance goals have been filed under seal with the Court. The KEIP remains subject to objections of creditors and other interested parties, and final approval of the Court. Accordingly, its terms may be materially modified prior to implementation.
