AMBARELLA, INC. (NASDAQ:AMBA) Files An 8-K Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain OfficersItem 5.02
On May 31, 2017, the Board of Directors of Ambarella, Inc. (the “Company”) approved, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, a Fiscal Year 2018 Annual Bonus Plan (the “FY2018 Bonus Plan”). The Company’s executive team members, including named executive officersFeng-Ming Wang, George Laplante, Les Kohn, Christopher Day and Yun-Lung Chen, are eligible to participate in the FY2018 Bonus Plan. The FY2018 Bonus Plan establishes an aggregate target bonus pool for the executive team that is approximately 8.6% smaller than the executive team target bonus pool under the fiscal year 2017 bonus pool. The actual aggregate amount of the bonus pool under the FY2018 Bonus Plan will be determined by the Compensation Committee following completion of the Fiscal Year 2018 based upon the Company’s fiscal year 2018 performance against revenue and operating profit metrics established by the Board of Directors. The performance weightings are 50% for the revenue metric and 50% for the operating profit metric. On-target performance is intended to result in an aggregate bonus pool payout at target levels. Above target performance is intended to result in aggregate bonus pool payouts above target levels, with a maximum payout equal to 135% of the annual targeted bonus pool payout, absent approval otherwise by the Board of Directors. Threshold performance would result in a payout of 70% of the targeted bonus pool, with failure to achieve the threshold performance goals resulting in no payout from the bonus pool. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has discretion to individually apportion from such bonus pool and pay bonuses, if any, to individual executives that are based on achievement of corporate goals and individual objectives. Any bonus plan payouts will be made no later than two and one-half months following the end of the Company’s fiscal year 2018, and generally are subject to continued employment through the payment date. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and our Board of Directors has discretion to reduce, eliminate or increase the size of the bonus pool and the individual bonuses.
