Form 8-K for CB RICHARD ELLIS GROUP INC


6-Mar-2009

Change in Directors or Principal Officers


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

(e)

On March 2, 2009, the Company's Board of Directors, based on the recommendation of its Compensation Committee, took the following actions with respect to 2008 performance awards, 2009 performance award targets, and 2009 base salaries:

2008 Performance Awards

Performance awards for the Company's executive officers in 2008 were based 80% on EBITDA targets and 20% upon the satisfaction of strategic measures by each officer. The Company did not achieve the requisite EBITDA thresholds in 2008 and as a result, none of the EBITDA-based performance awards were earned. The Board determined that performance awards for the executive officers should be approved based on satisfaction of their strategic measures for 2008. However, prior to the Board's determination, the Company's executive officers notified the Board that each of them had elected to forego any performance award for 2008 in light of the adverse economic conditions impacting the Company, its employees and stockholders. As a result, the Company's executive officers will not receive any performance awards for 2008.

2009 Performance Award Targets

The Board approved performance award target amounts for each of the Company's
executive officers for 2009. The target amounts generally reflect a decrease of
approximately 50% from 2008 targets. The target amounts for the Chief Executive
Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the other named executive officers are set
forth below:
