Financial Statements and Exhibits
Tempur-Pedic International Inc. (the
“Company” or
“Tempur-Pedic”)
is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to file its form of Performance
Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, Restricted Stock Award
Agreement and Stock Option Agreement for awards that may be made
pursuant to its Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the
“2003
EIP”). Tempur-Pedic is also providing information about its
Tempur-Pedic International Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Long-Term Plan”)
established under the 2003 EIP in order to facilitate the grant of equity or
equity-based awards based on Tempur-Pedic’s achievement of certain
pre-determined performance goals during certain designated periods.
The
purpose of the Long-Term Plan is to attract and retain the best possible
executive talent, motivate executive officers and employees, attain long-term
objectives and strategic initiatives and to further align the interests of
executive officers and employees with those of the Tempur-Pedic
stockholders. Amounts paid under the Long-Term Plan are generally
intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The maximum number of shares of
stock that may be granted pursuant to or the subject of outstanding awards under
the Long-Term Plan is limited to the number of shares of stock available under
the 2003 EIP, and new awards may not be made after expiration of the 2003
EIP.
The Compensation Committee will
administer the Long-Term Plan, including identifying participating executive
officers and employees, establishing Tempur-Pedic performance goals and
determining the applicable period of performance. The performance
period is the length of time during which the achievement of Tempur-Pedic
performance goals are measured as designated by the Compensation
Committee.
