PART I

 

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE

SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

 

The document(s) containing the information specified in Part I of Form S-8 will be sent or given to participants as specified by Rule 428(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

PART II

 

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE

REGISTRATION STATEMENT

 

 

The following documents of Resources Connection, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Registrant”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) are incorporated herein by reference:

 

 

 

 

 

 

All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents; provided, however, that documents or information deemed to have been furnished and not filed in accordance with Commission rules shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement.  Any statement contained herein or in a document, all or a portion of which is incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein, shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or amended, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

 

 

Not applicable.

 

 

The validity of the issuance of Common Stock registered hereby is passed on for the Company by Ms. Lauren A. Elkerson.  Ms. Elkerson is the Chief Legal Officer of the Company and is compensated by the Company as an employee.  Ms. Elkerson owns 21,258 shares of Common Stock, 113,300 restricted stock units (including dividend equivalents, with performance-based stock units included based on the “target” level of performance) that are payable in an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock, and Company stock options to acquire up to an additional 4,400 shares of Common Stock.  Such equity awards were granted under the Company’s 2020 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).  Ms. Elkerson is eligible to receive additional awards under the Plan.

 

 

Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “Delaware Law”), the Company has broad powers to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

The Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws include provisions to (i) eliminate the personal liability of its directors and officers for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty to the extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware Law and (ii) require the Company to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware Law, including circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary.  Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware Law, a corporation generally has the power to indemnify its present and former directors, officers, employees and agents against expenses incurred by them in connection with any suit to which they are or are threatened to be made, a party by reason of their serving in such positions so long as they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and with respect to any criminal action, they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.  The Company believes these provisions are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.  These provisions do not eliminate the directors’ duty of care, and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware Law.  In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for acts or omissions the director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the Company or its stockholders, for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, for acts or omissions involving a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the Company or its stockholders when the director was aware or should have been aware of a risk of serious injury to the Company or its stockholders, for acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the Company or its stockholders, for improper transactions between the director and the Company and for improper distributions to stockholders and loans to directors and officers.  The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

 

The Company has obtained an insurance policy covering the officers and directors of the Company with respect to certain liabilities (including, without limitation, liabilities arising under the Securities Act).

 

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with the Company’s directors and officers.  The form of indemnification agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.26 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended May 31, 2008 (Commission File No. 000-32113).  These agreements provide broader indemnity rights than those provided under Delaware Law and under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws.  The indemnification agreements are not intended to deny or otherwise limit third party or derivative suits against the Company or the Company’s directors or officers, but to the extent a director or officer were entitled to indemnity or contribution under the indemnification agreement, the financial burden of a third party suit would be borne by the Company, and the Company would not benefit from derivative recoveries against the director or officer.  Such recoveries would accrue to the benefit of the Company but would be offset by the Company’s obligations to the director or officer under the indemnification agreement.

 

The above discussion of Delaware Law, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws, and the Company’s indemnification agreements with officers and directors, is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by such statute, Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Third Amended and Restated Bylaws, and form of such indemnification agreement.

 

 

Not applicable.

 

 

See the attached Exhibit Index at page 7, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

(a)

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(b)         The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(h)          Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
