2009 Performance Share Unit Program
Approved: February 16, 2009
Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the PetSmart, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan or Performance Share Unit Grant Notice and Performance Share Unit Agreement, as applicable.
The number of Performance Share Units awarded to Participant under the 2009 Performance Share Unit Program (the Program) will be determined by the Companys Compensation Committee or its designee (the Committee), subject to the conditions set forth below (the Performance Conditions).
The Performance Conditions for a target award of the Performance Share Units shall be satisfied upon the earlier of the Participants continuous employment through:
(i) | the date of a Change of Control Transaction, or |
(ii) | attainment of End-of-Year Net Cash as determined by the Committee (the Performance Criteria) as calculated from the Companys audited financial statements for the 2009 fiscal year performance period (the Performance Period) applicable to the PSU Grant. For purposes of the PSU Grant, End-of-Year Net Cash is defined as cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents, less outstanding debt on the Companys revolving credit agreement, as adjusted for: (A) changes to the Companys current dividend policy, (B) any common stock share repurchases, (C) changes in capital expenditures due to Board approved increases to the Companys fiscal year 2009 budget or decreases from fewer new store openings, and (D) changes to the Companys accounts payable policies relative to payment terms. |
The number of Performance Share Units awarded due to attainment of the Performance Criteria will be determined in accordance with the following percentages of actual performance, with linear interpolation for achievement falling between the specified performance levels, rounded up to the next whole number of Performance Share Units. For example, if End-of-Year Net Cash results are 75% of the established Performance Criteria, 75% of the Target Number of Performance Share Units will be awarded.
