Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On February 22, 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Syniverse Holdings, Inc. (the Company) approved salary adjustments for the following named executive officers, effective March 24, 2008:
Officer |
2007 Salary | 2008 Salary | Percentage Increase | ||||||
Tony Holcombe, Chief Executive Officer |
$ | 500,000 | $ | 535,000 | 7.0 | % | |||
Leigh Hennen, Chief Human Resources Officer |
$ | 185,000 | $ | 200,000 | 8.1 | % |
The salary adjustments are consistent with the Companys practice of awarding merit increases based on an individuals performance and contribution to the Company, in addition to other factors.
For 2008, the Compensation Committee approved the following changes to the annual incentive bonus plan, resulting in (i) an increase in the maximum payout amount from 125% to 150% of the executives targeted bonus amount (which is generally 60% of base salary in the case of named executive officers) and (ii) for named executive officers there will no longer be a personal performance component to bonus determination. Following these changes, named executive officers bonus awards will be tied solely to the Companys financial performance measured by revenue, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.
