Item 5.02.   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
(e) On July 15, 2010, the Management Development and Compensation Committee of KB Home’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) granted a long-term incentive award to Jeff J. Kaminski, KB Home’s principal financial officer, who joined KB Home on June 7, 2010. The award was made under the KB Home 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and consisted of options to purchase 45,017 shares of KB Home common stock and 6,661 shares of restricted KB Home common stock. The descriptions set forth below of the stock options and restricted stock granted to Mr. Kaminski are qualified by reference to the forms of the award agreements, which are attached as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Stock Options. Each stock option granted to Mr. Kaminski on July 15, 2010, once vested, entitles him to purchase a share of KB Home common stock at the stock option’s exercise price. The exercise price for each stock option is $11.26, which was the closing price of KB Home’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant. Each stock option has a ten-year term from July 15, 2010 and vests in equal annual installments over a three-year period.
Restricted Stock. Each share of restricted stock granted to Mr. Kaminski on July 15, 2010 entitles him to one vote on all matters put before KB Home’s stockholders, and to receive all cash dividends that are paid in respect of each share of KB Home common stock from and including the grant date through and including the vesting date of July 15, 2013. Mr. Kaminski will forfeit these shares if his employment with KB Home is terminated before the vesting date.
In addition, the Committee has approved the acceleration of the vesting of Wendy C. Shiba’s previously granted equity-based awards upon the effective date of her termination as follows: stock appreciation rights (representing unvested rights with respect to 116,449 shares as of July 15, 2010), stock options (representing unvested rights with respect to 70,768 shares as of July 15, 2010), 10,930 unvested shares of restricted stock and 19,471 unvested phantom shares (in each case, as of July 15, 2010). The Committee also set the post-termination exercise periods of her stock appreciation rights and stock options at their full remaining terms.
