Item 5.02.   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On September 30, 2010, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of D.R. Horton, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted and approved a form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (“RSU Agreement”) and form of Stock Award Agreement (“Stock Award Agreement”) for awards to executive officers and other key employees of the Company pursuant to its 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) . Under the form of RSU Agreement, the Compensation Committee may award performance or service (time) based restricted stock units subject to the terms and conditions of the RSU Agreement and the 2006 Plan. Under the form of Stock Award Agreement, the Compensation Committee may award shares of common stock of the Company in payment or settlement of compensation already earned (i.e., payment of common stock in lieu cash).
On September 30, 2010, the Compensation Committee approved and granted an award of performance restricted stock units (“Performance RSUs”) pursuant to the 2006 Plan to the following executive officers and in the following amounts:
             
        Performance
Name   Office   Restricted Stock Units
 
           
Donald R. Horton
  Chairman of the Board     100,000  
 
           
Donald J. Tomnitz
  President and CEO     100,000  
The Performance RSUs relate to a two-year performance period beginning on October 1, 2010 and ending on September 30, 2012. The Performance RSU will vest if four performance goals are satisfied. The four performance goals relate to relative total shareholder return (“TSR”), relative Return on Investment (“ROI”), relative selling, general and administrative expense containment (“SG&A”) and relative gross profit (“GP”) (collectively, the “Performance Goals”) . Each Performance Goal is weighted twenty-five percent (25%) of the target number of 100,000 Performance RSUs. The target number of Performance RSUs may be increased to a maximum number of 200,000 upon maximum achievement of each of the four Performance Goals and decreased to a minimum number of zero Performance RSUs upon minimum achievement of each of the four Performance Goals. Each Performance RSU represents the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock if vesting is satisfied. The Performance RSUs granted to Mr. Horton and Mr. Tomnitz have no rights to dividends or voting.
Vesting of the TSR Performance Goal component will be determined after the Performance Period based on a comparison of the Company’s TSR to the S&P 500 Index’s TSR as computed by Standard and Poor’s using their TSR methodology. The vesting of the ROI, SG&A and GP Performance Goal components will be determined after the Performance Period based on the

2


 

relative ranking of the Company’s performance on each Performance Goal to each peer group company’s performance on each Performance Goal. Any portion of the Performance RSUs that do not vest due to inadequate relative performance will be forfeited.
The above summary is qualified by reference to the text of the RSU Agreement and SA Agreement, which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

D.R. HORTON, INC.
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to any Award of performance restricted stock units granted to an employee of the Company under the Company’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) , on ____________, which are evidenced by a Grant Notice or an action of the Committee that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions.
1.   TERMS OF PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
 
    D.R. Horton, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) , has granted to the Grantee named in the Grant Notice provided to said Grantee herewith (the “Grant Notice”) an award of a number of performance restricted stock units (the “Award” or the “Performance RSUs”) specified in the Grant Notice. Each Performance RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Shares, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Shares”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, and the Plan, each as amended from time to time.
 
2.   VESTING OF PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
 
    The Award shall not be vested as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice and shall be forfeitable unless and until otherwise vested pursuant to the terms of these Standard Terms and Conditions. After the Grant Date, subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Award shall become vested as described in this Section 2 with respect to that number of Performance RSUs as described in this Section 2.
 
    [Examples of Performance Goals]
  A.   The number of Performance RSUs that may be paid to you shall be based upon the Company’s achievement of the following four performance goals (“Performance Goals”) over the Performance Period: (i) Relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) (as defined in Section 17), (ii) Relative Return on Investment (“ROI”) (as defined in Section 17), (iii) Relative SG&A Containment (“SG&A Containment” or “SG&A”) (as defined in Section 17), and (iv) Relative Gross Profit (“GP”) (as defined in Section 17). Each of TSR, ROI, SG&A and GP shall be given twenty-five percent (25%) weight when ranking relative performance and when calculating the final vesting of the Award. See Exhibit C for examples of this calculation. Ranking of the relative performance of the Company and its peers shall be in accordance with the following ranking tables:

Total Shareholder Return (weighted 25% of Target Award)
    [Examples of Rankings] The Grantee shall vest in the TSR portion of the Award based on the Company’s performance of Total Shareholder Return as compared to the Total Shareholder Return of the S&P 500 Index over the two year Performance Period. Total Shareholder Return is to be determined by Standard and Poor’s after the Performance Period using the same or materially similar criteria used by them in preparing the stock performance graph included each year in the Company’s public filings (Form 10-K for proxy statement, as applicable). The Grantee shall receive the number of Performance RSUs in relation to the Company’s TSR performance as compared to the S&P 500 Index’s TSR performance as set forth in the table below (See Exhibit A for examples of hypothetical TSR rankings):

The final number of Performance RSUs under this TSR Performance Goal shall be determined using the above percentages and rankings. Performance and percentages that fall between those listed in the table above shall be ranked using linear interpolation. Under the TSR component of the Performance Goals and after giving effect to the 25% weighting to the total Target Award, the number of Performance RSUs that can be earned is as follows: 50,000 Maximum, 25,000 Target and 2,500 Threshold.

  B.   After adjustment for forfeitures as provided in Section 2, the number of Performance RSUs paid to you will be determined based on the Company’s ranking on each of the four Performance Goals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum number of Performance RSUs you can earn will be an aggregate of 200% (two times) the original Target Award granted to you, and the minimum number of Performance RSUs that you can earn is zero.
 
  C.   Issuance of shares earned under this Award shall be made to you as soon as practicable but no later than 45 days following certification by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) as set forth below, unless you timely elect a deferred payment/receipt in the manner and within the time frames specified by the Committee and in compliance with Code Section 409A (the “Payout Date”) .

    The number of Performance RSUs that vest will be determined after the completion of the performance period, which shall begin on October 1, 2010 and end on September 30, 2012 (the “Performance Period”), and will be based on the final peer rankings on each of the four Performance Goals as set forth in this Section 2.
 
    Notwithstanding anything contained in these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary:
  (i)   if the Grantee’s separation from service is due to death or disability before September 30, 2012, then after the Performance Period is completed and vesting determined, if any, the Grantee or his beneficiaries will be paid a number of Performance RSUs determined on a pro-rata basis based on the number of full months completed from the Grant Date before the death or disability.
 
  (ii)   if after 13 months has passed since the Grant Date, the Grantee’s separation from service is due to voluntary (without cause) or involuntary (without cause) termination, retirement or resignation before September 30, 2012, then after the Performance Period is completed and vesting determined, if any, the Grantee will be paid a number of Performance RSUs determined on a pro-rata basis based on the number of full months completed from the Grant Date to the date of separation of service.
 
  (iii)   if the Grantee’s separation from service is for any reason other than those listed in (i) and (ii) above, any unvested portion of the Award held by the Grantee shall be forfeited and canceled as of the date of such separation of service.
    For purposes of this Section 2, “pro-rata portion” means a percentage, where the numerator is the number of full months completed between October 1, 2010 and the date of the Grantee’s separation of service, and the denominator is 24 months.
 
3.   SETTLEMENT OF PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
 
    Vested Performance RSUs shall be settled by the delivery to the Grantee or a designated brokerage firm of one Share per vested Performance RSU on or before November 30, 2012 or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

5.   CHANGE IN CONTROL
 
    Unless otherwise provided in an employment, severance or other agreement between the Company and the Grantee, the Committee shall determine the effect of a Change in Control on all unvested Performance RSUs. Without limitation, the Committee may provide for the acceleration of vesting of all or a portion of the unvested Performance RSUs at such performance level as determined by the Committee, for a payment based on the Change in Control Price in settlement of the Performance RSUs at such performance level as determined by the Committee, or for the assumption or substitution of Performance RSUs by the Grantee’s employer (or the parent or an Affiliate of such employer) or other service recipient that engages the Grantee immediately following the Change in Control. In all events, any action under this Section 5 shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
 
6.   RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF SHARES
 
    The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Grantee or other subsequent transfers by the Grantee of any Common Shares issued in respect of vested Performance RSUs, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Grantee and other holders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

The Grantee acknowledges that the Company shall have the right to deduct any taxes required to be withheld by law in connection with the delivery of the Performance RSUs from any amounts payable by it to the Grantee (including, without limitation, future cash wages).

EXHIBIT A
Examples of Total Shareholder Return Rankings
Company compared to S&P 500 Index
Example 1: If after the Performance Period the S&P 500 Index had a Total Shareholder Return of 10% and DHI had a Total Shareholder Return of 10% then the ranking payout on this TSR Performance Goal would be equal to the Target RSUs of 25,000.
Example 2: If after the Performance Period the S&P 500 Index had a Total Shareholder Return of 10% and DHI had a Total Shareholder Return of 5% then the ranking payout on this TSR Performance Goal would equal to 12,500 RSUs (25,000 minus 12,500).
Example 3: If after the Performance Period the S&P 500 Index had a Total Shareholder Return of 10% and DHI had a Total Shareholder Return of 14% then the ranking payout on this TSR Performance Goal would equal to 35,000 RSUs (25,000 plus 10,000).
Example 4: If after the Performance Period the S&P 500 Index had a Total Shareholder Return of 10% and DHI had a Total Shareholder Return of 20% then the ranking payout on this TSR Performance Goal would equal to 50,000 RSUs (25,000 plus 25,000).

Exhibit 10.2
D.R. HORTON, INC.
2006 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT
          This Stock Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of _________________ (the “Effective Date”) by and between D.R. Horton, Inc. (the “Company”), and _________________ (the “Participant”).
           WHEREAS , the Participant is an employee or officer of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof;
           WHEREAS , the Company has established the D.R. Horton, Inc 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), whereby the Company may issue shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), to certain of the employees and officers of the Company and any Subsidiary thereof. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan;
           WHEREAS , in order to attract, motivate and retain the services of the Participant, the Company is willing to issue shares of Common Stock to the Participant on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;
           WHEREAS , Plan Section 8(c) authorizes the Company to grant Shares without any performance criteria or vesting provisions if such Shares are issued in payment or settlement of compensation that has already been earned by the Participant; and
           WHEREAS , the Shares contemplated for grant hereunder are issued in payment or settlement of compensation that the Participant has already earned.
           NOW, THEREFORE , the Company, acting through the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, hereby agrees to issue to the Participant certain Shares of Common Stock, and the Participant hereby accepts such Shares, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
1.   AUTHORITY .
          The shares of Common Stock issuable to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement will be issued pursuant to the authority granted under the Plan and are subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the same may be amended or otherwise modified from time to time. The interpretation and construction of this Agreement by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, which has been designated by the Board to administer the Plan (the “Administrator”) and such rules and regulations as may be adopted by the Administrator for the purpose of administering the Plan, shall be final and binding upon the Participant. The Company shall, upon written request therefor, send a copy of the Plan, in its then current form, to the Participant.
2.   GRANT OF AWARD .
          Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, ________________ shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) are hereby issued to the Participant. Such Shares are fully vested and nonforfeitable. They are fully paid and nonassessable, and may be issued in book entry form or by physical delivery, at the Participant’s election.

 


 

3.   PAYMENTS TO COMPANY .
          By the execution of this Agreement, the Participant agrees to pay to the Company the amount of federal, state and local taxes that the Company is required to withhold and remit to the taxing authorities applicable to the Participant as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Taxes”). The Participant shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Taxes the Company is required to withhold and remit as calculated by the Company in accordance with the rules and regulations of applicable taxing authorities governing the calculation of such withholding. If the Participant fails or refuses to make such payment to the Company on its due date, the Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in addition to any of its other remedies, to withhold from any other compensation or payments due by the Company to the Participant an amount sufficient to pay such withholding plus interest as hereafter provided until such withholding and interest is paid in full. Pursuant to Section 16 of the Plan, unless the Participant chooses to satisfy in cash the Taxes the Company is required to withhold as set forth above, by execution of this Agreement the Participant instructs and authorizes the Company to withhold on the Participant’s behalf the number of shares of Common Stock from those Shares issuable to the Participant at the time of grant as the Company determines to be sufficient to satisfy the Taxes the Company is required to withhold.
4.   COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW .
          The Award is subject to the condition that if the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares subject to the Award upon any securities exchange or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the delivery of such Shares, the Shares subject to the Award shall not be delivered, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval.
5.   MISCELLANEOUS .
          5.1 Notice . Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed sufficiently given if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the addressee at his, her or its address last provided the sender in writing by the addressee for purposes of receiving notices hereunder or, unless or until such address shall be so furnished, to the address indicated opposite his, her or its signature to this Agreement. Each party may also provide notice by sending the other party a facsimile at a number provided by such other party.

          5.3 Plan Controls . The Company and the Participant (by his or her acceptance of this Agreement) agree that each will be subject to and bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof.
