Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On January 26, 2006, at a meeting of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Compensation Committee”) of Wind River Systems, Inc. (the “Company”), the Compensation Committee approved for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2007 (“FY07”) the criteria for on-target performance for the payment of cash bonuses for the Company’s employees that are not eligible for any other variable compensation, which includes the Company’s executive officers. Pursuant to the criteria approved by the Compensation Committee, eligible employees will receive a cash bonus based on the Company’s financial performance for FY07 as measured by bookings and earnings per share, calculated on a non-GAAP basis. Actual bonuses payable for FY07, if any, will vary depending on the extent to which actual performance meets, exceeds, or falls short of the established corporate and individual performance goals for on-target performance for FY07 for each individual. In addition, management, with respect to eligible employees, and the Compensation Committee, with respect to eligible executive officers, retains discretion to modify the bonuses that would be payable to an individual.

 

The Compensation Committee also approved changes to the annual cash salaries and the cash bonus awards for FY07 for each of the executive officers of the Company.
