Exhibit
10.1
Compensation
of Chief Financial Officer
Effective
September 14, 2009, Nu Horizons Electronics Corp. (the “Company”) and Kurt
Freudenberg, the Company’s Executive Vice President – Finance and Chief
Financial Officer, agreed to amend Mr. Freudenberg’s compensation
arrangement. Pursuant to such compensation arrangement, which was
approved by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, Mr.
Freudenberg’s base salary was increased to the rate of $360,000 per annum
effective as of the date of that agreement. However, Mr. Freudenberg will be
paid at the rate of $324,000 per annum until such time as the Company returns to
profitability, among other factors, pursuant to the Company’s previously
announced cost-saving measures which implemented a ten percent reduction in
compensation paid to the majority of the Company’s employees, including its
executive officers. The Compensation Committee determined to increase the rate
of base compensation payable to Mr. Freudenberg taking into account the base
salary and guaranteed minimum bonus paid to Mr. Freudenberg for the fiscal year
ended February 28, 2009, which results in a base salary at approximately the
amended level. In connection with its evaluation of Mr. Freudenberg’s
compensation arrangement, the Compensation Committee also determined that it is
advisable to eliminate any bonus program for the Company’s executive officers
until such time as the Company reports a profit, except to the extent that
payment of a bonus is otherwise required by the terms of an executive’s
employment agreement. On September 21, 2009, Compensation Committee of the
Company’s Board of Directors determined that the increase of Mr. Freudenberg’s
base salary to the rate of $324,000 should be made retroactive, effective as of
March 1, 2009, the beginning of the Company’s current fiscal year.
