Item 5.02  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On May 6, 2008, Tuesday Morning Corporation (the “Company”) approved that Starlette Johnson will be appointed to the Company’s Board and will serve until her term expires at the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008. There are no understandings or arrangements between Ms. Johnson and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Johnson was selected to serve as a director of the Company and there are no reportable transactions under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. It is expected that Ms. Johnson will execute the Company’s standard form of confidentiality agreement for directors.

 

For her service on the Board, Ms. Johnson will receive compensation for her services in accordance with the Company’s standard compensatory arrangements for non-employee directors. These arrangements include an annual retainer in the amount of $30,000 (beginning May 1, 2008) and a Board meeting fee of $2,500 for in-person meetings and $1,000 for telephonic meetings. In addition, Ms. Johnson will be reimbursed for her out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending Board meetings and will receive the standard 20% discount on merchandise purchases provided to all of the Company’s employees. If Ms. Johnson is later appointed to a committee of the Board, she will also be entitled to receive additional compensation related to such service. Upon Ms. Johnson’s appointment to the Board, she will be awarded shares of restricted stock valued at $37,000 on the date of grant and non-qualified stock options to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
