Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. Effective July 17, 2012, the Herman Miller, Inc. Board of Directors and the Executive Compensation Committee (1) awarded long term incentive awards to the CEO and other key executives under the Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) for the 2012 fiscal year at the target award amounts established in July 2011; (2) approved new base salaries levels and established target payout percentages under the Executive Incentive Cash Bonus Plan and the LTIP for the CEO and other key executives for the 2013 fiscal year; and (3) approved a special grant of value added performance stock units (PSU) to the CEO and other key executives. Achievement of the targets under the Executive Incentive Cash Bonus Plan is primarily based on Economic Value Added (EVA) improvement from the prior year as determined by the Executive Compensation Committee. The table below presents the FY2013 base salary levels, the Executive Incentive Cash Bonus Plan target percent of base salary level, the LTIP award target value as a percentage of base salary level, and the number of value added performance stock units granted.

Gregory J. Bylsma      $375,000    65%              100%               7,500
Curtis S. Pullen       $375,000    65%              100%               7,500

Andrew J. Lock         £239,000    65%              75%                7,500

In addition the Executive Compensation Committee approved the grant of 3,000 restricted stock units to Mr. Bylsma and 2,000 restricted stock units to Mr. Lock. These grants will cliff vest after 5 years provided that Messrs. Bylsma and Lock are still employed by the Company.

The value added performance stock units are units representing the right to receive shares of Herman Miller, Inc. at the end of the specified performance period. These units represent shares of common stock that may be issued, if certain EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) targets are achieved at the end of the three year performance period. The PSU provides that the total number of shares which may be issued vary between 0 and 200% of the target amount depending upon over or under performance of the established EBITDA goal. The EBITDA goal for on target performance is a 3 year average EBITDA of $209 million. No shares are issuable if the 3 year EBITDA average is below $190 million; 200% of the target grant vests if the 3 year EBITDA average is more than $238 million. The PSU also grants the Committee the option to extend the performance period to a total of five years; however, if the extension is granted, no more than 34% of the target units may be issued.

If the employee leaves the Company for any reason other than death, disability, retirement or termination without case, during the three year vesting period all units are forfeited. If an employee dies or becomes disabled the units vest immediately. If an employee retires during the first 12 months after grant, one-twelfth of the grant will be eligible for vesting for each month that the employee was employed after the grant date. If the employee retires after the initial 12 months, the units will vest in full. If an employee is terminated for reasons other than cause during the three year period then a prorated portion of the units will vest. PSUs convert into shares after they vest. In all cases where vesting occurs prior to the end of the three-year performance period, distribution of shares will occur after the end of such three period with the number of final shares based upon average EBITDA performance over that three year period. Dividends will not accrue on the PSUs.

Effective July 17, 2012 the Board of Directors designated Louise McDonald, President-Herman Miller Healthcare as a Section 16 Officer.
