Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
Officers.
On May 18, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of NIKE,
Inc., an Oregon corporation (the "Company"), approved the grant of restricted
stock units under the Company's 1990 Stock Incentive Plan (the "RSUs"), to Mark
G. Parker, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. The grant
consists of 189,682 RSUs. Each RSU obligates the Company upon vesting of the RSU
to issue to the RSU holder one share of NIKE Class B Common Stock plus a cash
payment equal to the total amount of dividends paid per share between grant and
vesting of the RSU. One hundred percent of the RSUs are scheduled to vest on May
18, 2017, subject to Mr. Parker's continued employment with the Company through
such date. In addition, the RSUs will become 100% vested upon (i) the earlier
death or disability of Mr. Parker, or (ii) if a "change in control" of the
Company occurs and within two years after the change in control, Mr. Parker's
employment is terminated by the Company without "cause" or by him for "good
reason." The terms "change in control," "cause" and "good reason" have the same
meanings for purposes of the RSUs as they have in the Company's current form of
Non-Statutory Stock Option Agreement. Shares acquired under the RSUs are subject
to the Company's Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation.
