Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
The Six Flags Entertainment Corporaiton (the "Company") has established a program (the “Project 750 Program”) pursuant to which executive officers and other employees may be issued awards (a “Project 750 Award”) under the Six Flags Entertainment Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Long-Term Incentive Plan”). The Project 750 Program sets an aspirational goal of attaining $750 million of Modified EBITDA (as defined in the Company’s financial statements) by 2020 and the number and timing of any issuances of common stock under the Project 750 Program will depend on progress toward the $750 million target and the timing thereof. The Project 750 Awards also provide for the grant of dividend equivalent rights equal in value equal to any dividends on the common stock from the award issuance date through the date shares, if any, are issued under the Project 750 Award. The aggregate share payout under the Project 750 Program if the $750 million target is achieved in 2020 would be 900,000 shares (not including dividend equivalent rights) but could be more or fewer shares depending on achievement and the timing thereof. The issuance date of any shares pursuant to Project 750 Awards will be after the end of the year in which the performance target is achieved. Exhibit 10.1 attached hereto sets forth the base number of shares under the Project 750 Program that each of the Company’s executive officers would receive assuming the $750 million of Modified EBITDA target is achieved in 2020. The above summary of the material terms of the Project 750 Program does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Project 750 Program Overview and the Form of Project 750 Program Award Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein as well as the Long-Term Incentive Plan which was filed as Appendix A to the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement filed on March 20, 2012, which is incorporated by reference herein.
