Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on July 14, 2008 Korn/Ferry International (the “Company”) entered into a letter agreement with Paul C. Reilly, Executive Chairman of the Board, extending Mr. Reilly’s employment for the period from July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009. The letter agreement allowed for bonus amounts for critical special assignments such as interim president of Europe, Middle East and Africa. On September 22, 2008 the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved parameters under which Mr. Reilly may receive from $250,000 to $1,000,000 based upon his performance for this assignment. Consistent with its process for other market and geographic leaders, the Company established objectives against which Mr. Reilly’s performance will be evaluated to determine the actual level of compensation.
