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

 

(e) 2012 Management Incentive Plan Criteria

On May 16, 2012 the Compensation and Executive Development Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Jamba, Inc. (the “Company”) established criteria for cash incentive awards that may be paid under the Company’s Management Incentive Plan for the second performance period in fiscal year 2012 which covers the period of July 4, 2012 through January 1, 2013 (the “2012 Second Half Criteria”). Under the 2012 Second Half Criteria, cash incentive awards will be earned by participants upon the achievement of specified Company financial objectives, department strategic objectives and individual personal objectives. Depending on a participant’s position, the financial metrics account for 60% to 75% of the 2012 Second Half Criteria. The strategic and personal metrics account for 25% to 30% and 0% to 10%, respectively, of the 2012 Second Half Criteria and are dependent and vary based upon an employee’s job title, department and individual duties.

If each of the target metrics is achieved in the second performance period for fiscal year 2012, participants will be eligible for a target award, based on the participant’s position, as follows:

 

Position

   Target Award as a % of
Base Salary During
Performance Period
 

CEO and President

     100 

President Stores and Chief Operating Officer

     50 

CFO and Chief Administrative Officer

     50 

Sr. VP/ Group VP/ VP

     40 

Directors and Managers are also participants in the Management Incentive Plan with 2012 Second Half Criteria target award percentages similarly based on base salary during the performance period.

Under the 2012 Second Half Criteria, if the Company’s operating profit for the performance period does not reach the targeted amount determined by the Committee but reaches at least the threshold amount determined by the Committee, participants shall still be eligible for a cash incentive award payment for the financial metrics except that the total amount of the award payable to participants shall be discounted by 20% such that only up to 80% of the targeted award amount shall be payable. If the Company’s operating profit for the performance period exceeds the targeted amount determined by the Committee by certain pre-determined amounts and if a threshold general and administrative expense target is achieved, a participant is also eligible for an additional 25% or 50% of a participant’s target award amount, with the 25% or 50% determination depending on the extent by which operating profit exceeds the targeted amount.
