Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 18, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of The St. Joe Company (the "Company") approved amendments to the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") and the Deferred Capital Accumulation Plan ("DCAP"). The amendments were adopted to comply with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A.
Each of the SERP and DCAP amendments provides, among other things, for the following: (1) limits distributions to only lump sum payments; (2) requires a six month delay on distribution payments after termination of service, except for payments on death; (3) eliminates Committee discretion to accelerate payments; and (4) requires that any amendment or termination must comply with Section 409A. The DCAP amendment also conforms the definition of "change of control" to the requirements of Section 409A and eliminates in-service distributions.
The description of the SERP and DCAP amendments in this report is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amendments themselves, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 and are incorporated by reference herein.
