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

 

(e) On June 25, 2013, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Corinthian Colleges, Inc. (the “Company”) approved new executive bonus arrangements for the Company’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2014, pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Performance Award Plan, as amended and restated. The bonus arrangements apply to all executive officers of the Company, including the “named executive officers.” The bonus arrangements set forth the bonus targets and the performance criteria upon which such executives’ bonuses will be based.

 

Each executive’s bonus is targeted to be a percentage of such executive’s base salary, as determined by the Committee for each executive. The target bonus for Jack Massimino, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, is 115% of his base salary, and the target bonus for Kenneth Ord, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer, is 90% of his base salary. Each of the other “named executive officers” has a target bonus equal to 75% of his or her respective base salary.

 

The performance criteria for the executive officers, including “named executive officers,” consist of operating profit and a regulatory compliance “gate” based on internal audit results. Threshold levels of operating profit and regulatory compliance must be achieved for any bonus payout to occur for any of the Company’s executive officers. With respect to operating profit, if performance is attained at a level between threshold and target, or between target and maximum, then the applicable factor for the calculation of the cash payment attributable to operating profit will be interpolated between those two levels on a straight linear basis.

 

The Committee retains the discretion to reduce or eliminate bonus payouts in its discretion.
