Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On April 10, 2006, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Performance Food Group Company, a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”) approved the award to certain of the Company’s employees of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) and of shares of restricted stock. The number of options and restricted shares awarded to the Company’s chief executive officer and its other four most highly compensated executive officers based on salary and bonus for the 2005 fiscal year were as follows:
                     
          Stock       Restricted  
          Option       Share  
Name   Title     Award       Award  
Robert C. Sledd
  Chairman and Chief Executive Officer     38,624       4,292  
Thomas Hoffman
  Senior Vice President and Chief Executive Officer — Customized Segment     14,400       1,600  
Steven Spinner
  President and Chief Operating Officer     8,250       8,250  
John D. Austin
  Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer     15,377       1,709  
J. Keith Middleton
  Senior Vice President and Controller     4,500       1,500  
     The options, which vest on April 10, 2010, have an exercise price equal to $31.25 per share, the closing market price for the Common Stock on The Nasdaq National Market on the date of grant, and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options which were awarded pursuant to the Performance Food Group Company 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), vest and become excercisable upon the occurrence of a change in control or potential change in control, as those terms are defined in the Plan. Each recipient’s option award agreement contains provisions dealing with, among other things, (i) the effect, on the award, of the termination of the optionee’s service as an employee of the Company whether by early or normal retirement, disability, death, or voluntary or involuntary termination; (ii) the option’s transferability; and (iii) the manner in which the optionee can exercise the option.
     In accordance with the determination by the Committee on August 23, 2005 to amend the Company’s policy with respect to the period of time during which employees may exercise stock options awarded to them pursuant to the Plan following the employee’s termination as a result of his or her early or normal retirement, the options awarded on April 10, 2006 allow the optionee to exercise his or her option awarded pursuant to the agreement upon his or her normal or early retirement, to the extent that the option was otherwise exercisable upon such normal or early retirement, for the remainder of the stated term of the option.
     The form of non-qualified stock option agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
