Item 5.02. Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

(e)

Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into amendments to the employment agreements (each, an “Amendment” and collectively, the “Amendments”) of each of David A. Brandon, James G. Stansik, J. Patrick Doyle, Russell J. Weiner, L. David Mounts and Wendy A. Beck, effective December 23, 2008. The Amendment for Mr. Brandon consists of an increase in his annual salary from $850,000 to $885,000 and an increase in the number of shares of restricted stock to be in granted to him in 2009 from 50,000 shares to 75,000 shares. The Amendments for the remaining executives are to ensure that the original employment agreements comply with all of the provisions of Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) §409A as well as to memorialize increases in annual salary for Mr. Doyle to $485,000, for Mr. Mounts to $415,000 and for Ms. Beck to $425,000.

In addition, for tax deductibility purposes, David A. Brandon, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, will continue to participate in the Company’s Senior Executive Annual Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is both IRC §162(m) compliant and shareholder approved. Additionally, Mr. Brandon has voluntarily agreed to forgo all bonus amounts payable to him for fiscal 2009 under the Plan that exceed his previously disclosed annual bonus percentage provided in his employment agreement, similar to the eligible employees participating in the 2009 Team Achievement Dividend (“TAD”) program. The Company’s other executive officers have also agreed to waive their respective right to participate in the Plan for fiscal 2009 and will instead participate in the Company’s TAD program at the annual bonus percentages provided for in their current employment agreements.
