Item 5.02   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Item 5.02(e) — Amendment to Employment Agreement; Change in Compensation — Chief Operating Officer .
On October 19, 2007, Asset Acceptance Capital Corp. (the “Company”) and Rion B. Needs, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, entered into a written amendment to Mr. Needs’ employment agreement dated July 20, 2007.
In lieu of Mr. Needs receiving an option to purchase 62,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in each of August 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 as stated under Item 5.02 of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on July 20, 2007, the written amendment provides that Mr. Needs will be granted a mix of the following in each of August 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011:
    stock options vesting in 25% annual increments over a four-year period,
 
    performance-based restricted stock units representing the contingent right to receive shares of common stock, which stock will not vest until the earlier of (i) the filing date of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ending June 30 of the fourth year following the year of the grant date, or (ii) August 15 of the fourth year following the year of the grant date, at which time the stock will vest in varying amounts of shares (from 0% to 100%) based on the Company’s achievement of specified earnings per share goals, provided that, Mr. Needs’ Continuous Service (as defined in the Incentive Plan) as an employee of the Company has not ended before the vesting date and the applicable performance-based criteria have been satisfied, or
 
    other types of equity awards.
The total value of the mix of all these awards would equal 62,500 “option equivalents” to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in each of the years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, with the Compensation Committee to determine the allocation among stock options, performance-based restricted stock units or other types of equity in amounts consistent with awards made by the Compensation Committee to other executive officers of the Company.
The above description of the Incentive Plan is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan for Management which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 16, 2007 and incorporated herein by reference to this Item 5.02.
Except for the change in equity awards described above, the written amendment to Mr. Needs’ employment agreement memorializes the changes in Mr. Needs’ compensation described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on October 9, 2007 and incorporated herein by reference to this Item 5.02.
