Item 3.03   Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
 
The information set forth under “Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year” is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.
 
Item 5.02  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e)           On March 10, 2011, the independent members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of The Management Network Group, Inc. (the “Company”), upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, approved an executive incentive compensation plan for fiscal year 2011 (the “Plan”).  The Plan establishes a cash bonus pool (the “Pool”) for the Company’s principal executive officer, president and chief operating officer, and principal financial officer if the Company earns at least $2,750,000 of non-GAAP EBITDA in fiscal year 2011 (“2011 Non-GAAP EBITDA”).  The calculation of 2011 Non-GAAP EBITDA excludes non-cash charges (e.g., share-based compensation expense) and may exclude extraordinary one-time items to the extent determined to be appropriate by the Compensation Committee.

The amount available for payment from the Pool (“Payout Amount”) shall be a specified lump sum amount at certain thresholds of 2011 Non-GAAP EBITDA (as reduced by the Payout Amount) per the following schedule:
 
Non-GAAP EBITDA
(Post Bonus) Exceeds
Payout Amount
$2,750,000
$450,000
$3,025,000
$575,000
$3,300,000
$700,000
$3,630,000
$770,000
$3,970,000
$830,000
$4,310,000
$890,000

In no event will the Payout Amount exceed $890,000.

The distribution of the Payout Amount, if any, among the Company’s eligible executive management will be determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee and/or independent directors at a later date.

The Plan is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 5.03   Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
 
On March 10, 2011, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s Bylaws (the "Bylaws"), to effect the following two amendments: (1) Section 2.5(b) was amended to clarify an ambiguity, by revising the  phrase "such anniversary date" in the second section of Section 2.5(b) to read "the first anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting date", and (2) Section 3.2(a) was amended to decrease the size of the Board as provided in the Bylaws from seven directors to six directors to reflect the current number of directors.  A copy of the amendments to the Bylaws is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference, and a copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
