Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On November 19, 2014, the Board of Directors of Plantronics, Inc. (“Plantronics” or the “Company”) approved and adopted, effective January 1, 2015, an executive physical program that is intended to encourage executives to engage in preventive medical care.  Executives will be able to undergo physical examinations overseen by physicians and the examinations may include testing and consulting as appropriate based on the executive’s medical situation.  The executive physical program is intended to replace the Company’s Exec-U-Care benefit program that will terminate effective December 31, 2014. The Exec-U-Care benefit program is a supplement to the Company’s existing medical plan that allows an executive to be reimbursed for certain medical expenses that are not covered under the Company’s general medical plan.  The Company expects the aggregate costs of the executive physical program to be less than those of the Exec-U-Care benefit program it is replacing.
