Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On October 9, 2009, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
"Committee") of Lindsay Corporation (the "Company") adopted the Management
Incentive Plan for the Company's fiscal year ending August 31, 2010 ("2010 MIP")
under which the Company's senior officers can earn annual cash incentive awards.
Each current employee who will be a named executive officer in the Company's
proxy statement for its 2010 annual meeting is a participant in the 2010 MIP.
The 2010 MIP was adopted pursuant to and is subject to the terms of the
Management Incentive Umbrella Plan approved by stockholders on January 26, 2009.
The 2010 MIP establishes target bonus amounts for each participating officer
ranging from 35% to 60% of such officer's base salary. Participants are eligible
for awards of between 0% and 200% of their target bonus depending on the
achievement of certain Company financial performance criteria and individual
performance criteria. The Company financial performance component and individual
performance component are weighted as 80% and 20% of the overall performance
criteria for each participant, respectively. The Company financial performance
component is based on achieving stated goals for fiscal 2010 revenue, operating
margin and average working capital to sales, with target bonuses for these
subcomponents keyed to the Company's fiscal 2010 operating budget. For certain
officers, the Company financial performance component also includes additional
subcomponents relating to a specific market segment or operational area over
which those officers have direct responsibility or control. The amount of bonus
awarded under the individual performance component is dependent upon an
officer's personal performance as evaluated using individual performance
objectives established by the Committee for each participating officer.
