Change in Directors or Principal Officers, Financial Statements an
As previously disclosed in our 2012 proxy statement, the compensation committee of the board of directors of Premiere Global Services, Inc. has engaged a new independent compensation consultant who is currently in the process of completing a comprehensive study of our executive compensation program, including assistance with the design of a new long-term incentive, or LTI, program. We have historically granted LTI awards on a triennial basis rather than an annual basis, with our Chief Financial Officer, David E. Trine, receiving his only LTI award to date upon joining us in 2009. He was fully vested in that LTI award as of March 31, 2012. On June 29, 2012, our compensation committee approved an LTI award, with a grant date of June 30, 2012, to Mr. Trine that approximates a pro-rated amount of one-year's annualized value of his previous LTI award as a bridge grant to transition to the implementation of our new LTI program in 2013. Based on data and analysis provided by our independent compensation consultant, our compensation committee concluded that this LTI award was competitive with the market for similarly-situated executives.
Accordingly, on June 30, 2012, we granted to Mr. Trine 25,000 shares of restricted stock, which will vest on January 1, 2013 provided that Mr. Trine is then still employed by us or any of our affiliates. In the event of the termination of Mr. Trine's employment by reason of his death or disability or by us without cause, the vesting of such restricted stock will accelerate in full. In addition, such restricted stock will vest in full if Mr. Trine terminates his employment for good reason or if we terminate his employment without cause within twenty-four months of a change of control of the company, which is also referred to as a double trigger acceleration. A copy of this restricted stock agreement is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report.
The foregoing description of the restricted stock agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
