PRGX Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRGX) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

At the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders of PRGX Global, Inc.
(PRGX or the Company), held on June27, 2017 (the Annual Meeting),
the Companys shareholders approved the PRGX Global, Inc. 2017
Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan). Under the Plan,
the Company may grant awards that include stock options (both
incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options), stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock, restricted
stock units, performance units, performance shares, dividend
equivalents, bonus shares, and other stock-based or cash-based
awards. All awards granted under the Plan will be governed by
separate written agreements between the Company and the
participants. The written agreements will specify the terms of
the award, including when the award may become vested,
exercisable and payable. Subject to the right of the Board of
Directors of the Company (the Board) to amend or terminate the
Plan, the Plan shall remain in effect until the earlier of April
25, 2027 or the date all shares subject to the Plan have been
issued and all restrictions on restricted share awards under the
Plan have lapsed.

The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued
to awards under the Plan is 3,400,000 shares plus that number of
shares of common stock subject to awards granted under the
Companys 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and restated
effective April25, 2014) (the Pre-Existing Plan) which become
available for use under the Plan as described below after the
Plan becomes effective; provided, however, that the total number
of shares of common stock that may be delivered to the exercise
of incentive stock options will not exceed 3,400,000. A share of
common stock issued in connection with an award under the Plan
generally will reduce the total number of shares of common stock
available for issuance under the Plan by one. If any awards
granted under the Plan or the Pre-Existing Plan expire or are
cancelled, terminated or forfeited for any reason other than
their exercise, vesting or payment, the shares of common stock
subject to such awards will again be available for issuance under
the Plan. But, if any shares of common stock subject to an award
granted under the Plan or the Pre-Existing Plan are withheld or
applied as payment in connection with the exercise of an award or
the withholding or payment of taxes related to an award or
separately surrendered by the participant for any such purpose,
such returned shares of common stock will be treated as having
been delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of
shares of common stock available for grant under the Plan and
will not again be treated as available for grant under the Plan.
In any calendar year, no participant may be granted awards that
are intended to constitute performance-based compensation that
relate to more than 1,000,000 shares (twice that limit for awards
that are granted to an eligible person in the calendar year in
which the eligible person first commences employment or service)
(based on the highest level of performance resulting in the
maximum payout). In addition, the maximum dollar value of all
awards under the Plan that are intended to constitute
performance-based compensation that may be granted to a
participant in any single calendar year may not exceed $3,000,000
(twice that limit for awards that are granted to an eligible
person in the calendar year in which the eligible person first
commences employment or service) (based on the highest level of
performance resulting in the maximum payout). The maximum number
of shares of common stock that may be issued to awards, the per
individual limits on performance-based awards and the terms of
outstanding awards will be adjusted as is equitably required in
the event of corporate transactions and other appropriate events.

Any of the Companys employees or non-employee consultants,
including any employee or non-employee consultant of an Affiliate
(as defined in the Plan), and any non-employee member of the
Board or any board of directors of an Affiliate, or potential
such person, is eligible to receive an award under the Plan
(contingent upon commencement of employment or service for any
such potential person). However, incentive stock options may only
be granted to employees of the

Company or any Subsidiary Corporation (as defined in the Plan).
The Compensation Committee (the Committee) of the Board will
administer the Plan. The Committee has the authority to grant
awards to such persons upon such terms and conditions (not
inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan) as it may consider
appropriate.

A copy of the Plan is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.


Item5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election
of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory
Arrangements of Certain Officers
.

On June26, 2017, the Compensation Committee of the Board,
established the material terms for the 2017 short term incentive
plan (the STI Plan) in which the Companys principal executive
officer, principal financial officer and its other named
executive officers will participate. The material terms of the
2017 STI Plan are as follows:

Bonus payments, if any, made under the 2017 STI Plan will be
based on the Companys level of achievement of pre-STI Plan
bonus adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and revenue
from continuing operations in 2017. The Company must achieve
a minimum level of pre-STI Plan bonus adjusted EBITDA
(established by the Compensation Committee) and a minimum
level of revenue (established by the Compensation Committee)
in 2017 before any bonus payments may be made under the 2017
STI Plan.

The target bonus amount under the 2017 STI Plan for the Chief
Executive Officer is 50% of his base salary, the target bonus
amount for the Chief Commercial Officer is 80% of his base
salary, the target bonus amount for the Chief Financial
Officer and Senior Vice President Global Client Operations is
65% of their respective base salaries, and the target bonus
amount for all other named executive officers is 60% of their
respective base salaries.

65% of the named executive officers target bonus amounts
under the 2017 STI Plan will be based on the Companys 2017
revenue performance (the Revenue Component) and 35% of the
named executive officers target bonus amounts under the 2017
STI Plan will be based on the Companys 2017 pre-STI Plan
bonus adjusted EBITDA performance (the EBITDA Component),
which components will be calculated independent of each
other.

At target revenue performance, 50% of the Revenue Component
is earned, and 200% of the Revenue Component is earned at
maximum revenue performance. At target pre-STI Plan bonus
adjusted EBITDA performance, 50% of the EBITDA Component is
earned, and if pre-STI Plan bonus adjusted EBITDA exceeds
target pre-STI Plan bonus adjusted EBITDA performance, 20% of
such excess will be paid to STI Plan participants, with each
participants share of such excess based on the ratio that the
participants target bonus amount bears to the sum of the
target bonus amounts for all STI Plan participants. It is
expected that approximately 50 employees, including the named
executive officers, will participate in the 2017 STI Plan.


The 2017 STI Plan also includes a post-bonus adjusted
EBITDA requirement, which requires bonuses payable under
the 2017 STI Plan to be pro-rated downwards (by the same
percentage amount) to the extent needed to ensure that the
post-bonus adjusted EBITDA of the Company


is not less than a minimum amount of adjusted EBITDA as
established by the Compensation Committee.

interests of the Company. The next non-binding advisory vote
regarding the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes is required to be
