Following the separation of FedEx Freight into an independent public company, a request will be made on your behalf for a special restricted stock grant of FedEx Freight common stock with a value of $3 million (inclusive of any tax payment) vesting ratably over three years, subject to FedEx Freight’s first filing of a periodic report (i.e., a Form 10-Q or Form 10-K) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The grant is subject to the approval of the FedEx Freight compensation committee.

 

In this position, you will be subject to our stock ownership goals. The FedEx Board of Directors believes that significant stock ownership by members of senior management further aligns their interests with the interests of our shareholders. Accordingly, the Board has established a goal that, within five years after being appointed to your current position, you own FedEx shares valued at not less than one time your annual base salary.

 

For purposes of meeting this goal, unvested restricted stock is counted, but unexercised stock options are not. Until the goal is met, you should consider retaining (but are not required to retain) “net profit shares” resulting from the exercise of stock options granted under the Company’s equity compensation plans. Net profit shares are the shares remaining after the payment of the option exercise price and taxes owed upon the exercise of options.

 

As an employee of FedEx Freight Inc, you will receive FedEx benefits. Officer benefits include the FedEx tax return preparation program, which will cover the costs to have your income tax returns prepared, signed and filed by an independent tax return preparer as required by FedEx.

 

This offer is contingent upon verification of your successful completion of the pre-employment process, which includes drug screen, education verification, federal and state background checks, and employment verifications.

 

Please indicate your acceptance of this offer by signing the original letter as indicated below and returning it to me as soon as possible.

 

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
