TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 23, 2006, the Board of Directors of G&K Services, Inc. (the “Company”) approved
changes to the following Company benefit plans:
| |
• |
|
G&K Services 401(k) Savings Incentive Plan |
| |
| |
• |
|
G&K Services, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (DEFCO) |
| |
| |
• |
|
G&K Services, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) |
| |
| |
• |
|
G&K Services, Inc. Pension Plan |
The Company’s board “froze” benefit accruals under each of the pension plan and the SERP effective
December 31, 2006. All benefits earned by defined benefit plan participants through this date will
be available upon retirement, subject to applicable plan provisions. Future growth in benefits will
not occur after this date.
With respect to the 401(k) plan and the DEFCO, the Company has improved each plan by offering new
Company retirement contributions, an increase in Company matching contributions and greater
flexibility for employee contributions. The Company will also offer additional transition
contributions for employees closer to retirement age and longer service employees.
The Company believes that the changes to the foregoing plans will further support the needs of the
Company’s employees, and enhance the Company’s overall competitive position by providing more
stable and predictable retirement plan expenses. The Company’s press release announcing the
foregoing changes is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
