Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Computer Programs and Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) held on May 12, 2005, the stockholders of the Company approved the adoption of the Computer Programs and Systems, Inc. 2005 Restricted Stock Plan (the “2005 Restricted Stock Plan”). The 2005 Restricted Stock Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to grant shares of common stock to executive officers of the Company. The 2005 Restricted Stock Plan became effective on May 12, 2005, and awards of restricted stock may be made under the Restricted Stock Plan until May 12, 2015. A maximum of 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock is available for issuance under the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.

 

The foregoing summary of the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. A more detailed summary can also be found in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2005, beginning on page 19.

 

Simultaneously with the adoption of the Restricted Stock Plan, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Company’s 2002 Stock Option Plan that reduces the number of shares reserved under the 2002 Stock Option Plan by 300,000 shares. This amendment to the 2002 Stock Option Plan became effective immediately upon the Company’s stockholders’ approval of the adoption of the Restricted Stock Plan at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The amendment to the Company’s 2002 Stock Option Plan is filed with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
