On July 25, 2011, Chris A. Raanes, Senior Vice President, Chief Operating Officer of Accuray Incorporated (“Accuray”), was promoted to Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer of Accuray.  In connection with Mr. Raanes’ promotion, he and Accuray are entering into an amended and restated employment letter, which amends and restates in its entirety the employment letter previously entered into between Accuray and Mr. Raanes.  The terms of the amended and restated employment letter are substantially the same as the prior employment letter between Accuray and Mr. Raanes, except that the new employment letter refers to Mr. Raanes’ new title.  Mr. Raanes’ compensation package has not changed as a result of his promotion.  Mr. Raanes’ compensation package will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of Accuray’s Board of Directors as part of Accuray’s regularly scheduled annual review process.

 

The Company will file Mr. Raanes’ amended and restated employment letter as an exhibit to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011.  The description set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K is a summary and is therefore qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the amended and restated employment letter when filed.
