Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 8, 2008, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Multimedia Games, Inc. (the “Company”) conducted a self-evaluation during a regular meeting of the Board. As part of its self-evaluation, the Board reviewed its committee memberships and charters. As a result of this review, the Board determined to make certain changes to its committees, including the appointment of Neil Jenkins as Chairman of the Compensation Committee, the appointment of Emanuel Pearlman as Chairman of Nominating and Governance Committee, the removal of John Winkelman from the Nominating and Governance Committee and the removal of Mr. Jenkins from the Audit Committee.
The Board also noted the discrepancy between the compensation schedule for the Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee. The Board determined that the committee compensation schedule should be equalized among all committees other than the Audit Committee and, accordingly, unanimously approved an increase in the amount of annual compensation for the members of the Compensation Committee. Effective as of October 1, 2008, the beginning of the Company’s next fiscal year, compensation for members of the Compensation Committee will be increased from $5,000 to $10,000 per year and compensation for the chairman of the Compensation Committee will be increased from $10,000 to $20,000 per year.
