(e)       On December 30, 2013, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of On Assignment, Inc. (the “Company”) approved annual grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain executives, including the named executive officers listed below. The RSU grants were made pursuant to the Company’s 2010 Incentive Award Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), and the grant date was January 2, 2014 (the “Grant Date”).

The following named executive officers of the Company received the number of RSUs listed below for their annual grant:

These RSU grant amounts were determined by dividing the dollar values set forth under “Value of RSU Grants” by $34.40, the fair market value (as defined in the Plan, which is the closing price on the date of grant) per share. The vesting of the grants occurs in two parts: (a) RSUs that are time-vested, and (b) RSUs that vest upon the achievement of certain performance criteria, as set forth below:

(a)
Time-Vesting Portion: 60% of each RSU grant shall vest based on the passage of time (the “Time-Vesting RSUs”), with one-third of the Time-Vesting RSUs vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date, contingent upon the executive’s continued service to the Company through each vesting date.
(b)
Performance-Vesting Portion: 40% of each RSU grant will vest in equal one-third installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date, contingent upon (x) the executive’s continued service to the Company through each vesting date and (y) the attainment of annual performance targets for each third established by the Compensation Committee within the first 90 days of the applicable performance year (the “Performance-Vesting RSUs”). If the annual performance target is not attained in full for any third of the Performance-Vesting RSUs, then any portion which fails to vest will roll forward for one year only and will be added to the installment scheduled to vest on the next following anniversary of the Grant Date. Vesting of such carried-forward portion will be determined in the subsequent year by reference to the attainment of the performance targets applicable to such subsequent year.

The foregoing description of the RSU grants are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by the Company’s Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award Notice and Agreement for each executive, a form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
