Item 5: Other Events
PeopleSoft announced on November 19, 1998 that the Compensation Committee of its
Board of Directors, comprised of independent outside directors, approved the
repricing of all outstanding common stock options with an exercise price above
$22.00 held by the Company's employees other than the Chief Executive Officer.
The Committee's decision reflects a continuing commitment by PeopleSoft to
retain employees whose options have exercise prices above the current market
price of the stock. The new exercise price will be determined based on the
closing market price of the Company's common stock on December 14, 1998.
Employees who accept the Company's repricing offer will be subject to a six
month extension to the vesting term for that option and a six month black out
period during which repriced options may not be exercised. All other terms of
the existing option will remain unchanged. There are approximately 13 million
options eligible for repricing which represent approximately 6% of the Company's
issued and outstanding common stock.
