JDA® Software Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: JDAS) today reported that in connection with its hiring of Executive Vice President, Sales & Marketing Jason B. Zintak on August 18, 2009, the compensation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved equity awards to Mr. Zintak consisting of 50,000 restricted stock units of the Company, one third of which will vest 12 months from the date of hire, with the remainder vesting ratably over a 24-month period commencing 12 months from the date of hire. Mr. Zintak also received 50,000 restricted stock units of the Company, which vest in tranches 45 days following the attainment of certain performance milestones that will be determined within 90 days of the effective date of employment. Additionally, Mr. Zintak’s inducement awards allow him to earn a target performance share award equal to 30,000 shares (up to a maximum of 37,500 shares) of the Company’s common stock, which will be based upon the achievement of the Company’s 2009 annual EBITDA target, as previously established by the Company’s Board of Directors. In the event of a change in control of the Company, the vesting of all outstanding unvested equity awards granted to Mr. Zintak will accelerate as of the date of the change in control unless the acquiring company assumes the equity awards or provides substitute equity awards. These awards have been granted outside of the terms of the Company’s 2005 Performance Incentive Plan by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors in reliance on NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5635(c)(4) as an inducement to Mr. Zintak to join the Company.
