Many Companies Need to Amend for 162(m) by Year End
Winston & Strawn LLP Link to more items from this source
[Guidance Overview]
Oct. 20, 2009

2 pages. Excerpt: Many companies will need to amend their employment agreements, equity plans and awards, and other incentive plans and agreements by December 31, 2009, to preserve the deductibility ofperformance-based awards and amounts under Code Section 162(m) [the $1 million limit on public companies' ability to deduct compensation payments to their named executive officers] in light of Rev. Rul. 2008-13.... Companies generally do not need to review or revise arrangementswith employees who are not subject to Code Sec. 162(m) ? and are highly unlike ever to become subject to Code Sec. 162(m). However, a company should cast its net broadly, because Code Sec. 162(m) applies in the year the award or other compensation becomes taxable ? and deductible by the corporation ? which may be several years in the future, after certain employees have been promoted.
