Item 11. Executive Compensation
 COMPENSATION
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 Compensation Philosophy
     
    
    annual base salaries should be competitive with the marketplace;
    
    the combination of variable annual compensation and long-term incentive
compensation should stress the achievement of short-term and long-term performance
objectives and should provide the opportunity to earn more than the marketplace
average for above average performance;
    
    long-term incentive compensation opportunities should be targeted at levels that
are competitive with the marketplace;
 8




---



##### Table of Contents




    
    equity ownership by the members of our executive management team should be
encouraged in order
to align the short-term and long-term interests of our executive officers with those of
the holders of our equity; and
    
    the material terms of NEO compensation should be set forth in employment agreements
of limited duration that contain non-compete and other restrictive covenants
applicable following the executives termination of employment.

    Effective May 1, 2010, Mr. Halmis annual
salary will be reduced to $1,200,000, Mr. von
Gals annual salary will be reduced to $875,000, Mr. Alibers annual salary will be reduced to
$700,000, and Mr. Hobermans annual salary will be reduced to $700,000.(2)
    
    During fiscal year 2009, none of the NEOs were awarded an annual cash bonus by the Compensation
Committee. Mr. Hoberman received a contractual payment of $333,333 on February 25, 2009, with the
first $250,000 grossed up for tax purposes, which replaced the value of equity awards Mr. Hoberman
forfeited when he left his previous employment to join the Company in 2008.(3)
    
    The amounts reported reflect the grant date fair value in respect of restricted stock units
awarded to each of the NEOs with respect to the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
(disregarding any estimate of forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions), as
applicable, and are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718.On December 9, 2009, pursuant to surrender agreements, Mr. von Gal, Mr. Aliber, Mr. Denton and
Mr. Hoberman forfeited 11,042, 10,122, 7,361, and 5,981 RSUs, respectively, for a total of 34,506
restricted stock awards due to vest on December 10, 2009. No other restricted stock awards were
forfeited by NEOs during the year ended December 31, 2009. On February 9, 2010, Mr. Halmi entered
into a surrender agreement whereby he irrevocably surrendered, cancelled and forfeited 50,000 RSUs.
For a discussion of the assumptions and methodologies used to calculate these amounts, please see
the discussion of share-based compensation set forth in Note 12 of our consolidated financial
statements included herein. The value of awards granted to the NEOs in 2009 is reflected on the
2009 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table below.(4)
    
    Mr. Aliber and Mr. Hoberman were granted 100 and 15 Value Units, respectively, in 2008. The
market or payout value of the unvested awards is not determinable, because there is no public
market for such units. Therefore, such value, if any, has not been included herein. The Value
Units represent profit interests in KRH, which will have value only if the value of KRH increases
after January 12, 2006 (inception) and certain returns have been realized by KRH. The Value Units
are obligations of KRH and are not payable by us. These profit interests dilute only the interests
of owners of KRH, and will not dilute direct holders of our common stock.(5)
    
    For all NEOs, the amounts reported reflect the grant date fair value with respect to the year
ended December 31, 2009 (disregarding any estimate of forfeitures related to service-based vesting
conditions), and are calculated in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 718.No stock option awards granted to NEOs were forfeited during the year ended December 31, 2009.
For a discussion of the assumptions and methodologies used to calculate these amounts, please see
the discussion of share-based compensation set forth in Note 12 of our consolidated financial
statements included herein. The value of awards granted to the NEOs in 2009 is reflected on the
2009 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table below.(6)
    
    The components of All Other Compensation for 2009 in the table above are detailed in the All
other compensation table set forth below.(7)
    
    Mr. Dentons total compensation is paid to him in British Pounds. Mr. Dentons 2009
compensation was converted using a rate of 1.6163US$  per £, the conversion rate on December 31,
2009. Mr. Dentons 2008 compensation was converted using a rate of 1.4437 US$  per £, the
conversion rate on December 30, 2008. Mr. Dentons 2007 compensation was converted using a rate of
1.9843 US$  per £, the conversion rate on December 31, 2007. 14

    Consists of (i) a single stock option award issued under the Incentive Award Plan, and (ii)
single restricted stock unit award issued under the Incentive Award Plan. On February 9, 2009,
Mr. Halmi was granted non-qualified stock options and restricted stock units (RSUs) under
the Incentive Award Plan in an effort to tie a portion of his compensation to corporate
performance and Company equity value. The exercise price per share subject to the stock
options is $4.04. Subject to Mr. Halmis continued employment, 33 1/3% of the stock options
and RSUs will generally vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant.
With respect to each of the stock options and RSUs, (i) 1/3 of the shares that become vested
on each anniversary date will become exercisable (with respect to shares subject to stock
options) or transferable (with respect to shares subject to RSUs) immediately upon vesting,
(ii) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary will become exercisable or
transferable, as applicable, upon the attainment of a $9.00 stock price performance hurdle and
(iii) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary will become exercisable or
transferable, as applicable, upon the attainment of a $14.00 stock price performance hurdle.
Upon a change in control, all options become fully vested and exercisable, and all RSUs become
fully vested and nonforfeitable, immediately prior to the change in control. On February 9,
2010, Mr. Halmi entered into a surrender agreement whereby he irrevocably surrendered,
cancelled and forfeited 50,000 RSUs. Subject to Mr. Halmis continued employment, the
remaining 100,000 RSUs will vest on February 9, 2011 (50% of the remaining RSUs) and February
9, 2012 (50% of the remaining RSUs).(2)
    
    The amounts included in the Grant Date Fair Value of Awards column are the full grant date
fair value of the awards determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The valuation
assumptions used in determining such amount are described in Note 12 of our consolidated
financial statements included herein. Description of Employment Agreements

    Shares of the stock option awards for all NEOs other than Mr. Halmi, vest over a three-year
period in equal increments on each one year anniversary of the grant date, subject to
continued service. On February 9, 2009, Mr. Halmi was granted a non-qualified stock option
under the Incentive Award Plan in an effort to tie a portion of his compensation to corporate
performance and Company equity value. The exercise price per share subject to these options
is $4.04. Subject to Mr. Halmis continued employment, 33 1/3% of the shares subject to the option will
generally vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. With respect to
each of the stock options, (i) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary date
will become exercisable immediately upon vesting, (ii) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on
each anniversary will become exercisable upon the attainment of a $9.00 stock price
performance hurdle and (iii) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary will
become exercisable upon the attainment of a $14.00 stock price performance hurdle. Upon a
change in control, all options become fully vested and exercisable, immediately prior to the
change in control. 20

generally vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. With respect to
each of the RSUs, (i) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary date will
become transferable immediately upon vesting, (ii) 1/3 of the RSUs that become vested on each
anniversary will become transferable upon the attainment of a $9.00 stock price performance
hurdle and (iii) 1/3 of the RSUs that become vested on each anniversary will become
transferable upon the attainment of a $14.00 stock price performance hurdle. Upon a change in
control, all RSUs become fully vested and nonforfeitable, immediately prior to the change in
control.(3)
    
    The market or payout value of the unvested awards of Value Units is not determinable because
there is no public market for such units. Therefore, such value, if any, has not been included
herein. The Value Units represent profits interests in KRH, which will have value only if the
value of KRH increases after January 12, 2006 (inception) and certain returns have been
realized by KRH. The Value Units are obligations of KRH and are not payable by us. These
profits interests dilute only the interests of owners of KRH, and will not dilute direct
holders of our common stock. However, our statement of operations reflects non-cash charges
for compensation related to the profits interests.(4)
    
    Mr. Halmi forfeited his 500 Value Units, effective on February 9, 2009, in exchange for a
right to receive additional priority distributions from KRH in an amount equal to $1,500,000.(5)
    
    Value Units have no exercise price, but instead entitle the holder to share in the future
profits of the business after other holders of other KRH interests receive a return of
invested capital and/or a priority distribution. See the Elements of Executive Compensation - KRH Compensation section of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.(6)
    
    Value Units have no expiration date.(7)
    
    Value Units will only become vested if the executive remains employed by us through the date
of a KRH liquidity event.(8)
    
    Mr. Hoberman was granted 15 Value Units on May 2, 2008. These Value Units became vested with
respect to five Value Units on February 25, 2009, and will become vested with respect to the
remaining 10 Value Units on each of February 25, 2010, and February 20, 2011. Value
Units are portable once vested.(9)
    
    On December 9, 2009, Messrs. Aliber, Hoberman, Denton and von Gal forfeited RSUs in the
amounts of 10,122, 5,981, 7,361 and 11,042, respectively. On February 9, 2010, Mr. Halmi
forfeited 50,000 RSUs. Pension Benefits

    Mr. Halmi, Mr. von Gal and Mr. Hobermans cash severance payments represent continued
payments of the executives base salary through the second anniversary of the date of
termination. Mr. Alibers cash severance payments upon an involuntary termination without
cause, voluntary termination with good reason or a non-extension of the agreement by the
Company represent a lump sum payment of one year of his annual base salary. Further, if Mr.
Alibers employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Aliber for good
reason, then Mr. Alibers cash severance payments will also include pro-rata lump sum payment
equal to the base salary he would have received under the agreement for the remainder of the
term. Mr. Dentons severance payments are explained in more detail in Notes 4 and 5 below.(2)
    
    Under the terms of the stock option and restricted stock unit agreements between the Company
and the NEOs, all shares of restricted stock vest in full automatically upon the occurrence of
a change of control (as defined in the Incentive Award Plan). The Restricted Stock units are
valued using the Companys stock price of $0.31 as of market close on December 31, 2009. The
stock options are valued at their intrinsic value, which is considered to be zero as of
December 31, 2009 because the exercise price for all outstanding options is greater than the
Companys $0.31 stock price as of the market close on December 31, 2009. The exercise price
of the stock options for the NEOs, other than Mr. Halmi is $3.54. The exercise price of Mr.
Halmis stock options is $4.04.(3)
    
    Except for Mr. Dentons benefits continuation amounts, all benefits continuation amounts
represent continued coverage for the executive and his eligible dependents under the Companys
group health plans through the second anniversary of the date of termination. As of December
31, 2009, Mr. Denton is also entitled to car allowance payments of $31,990, welfare benefits
premium payments of $44,956 and pension funding payments of $150,944 under the terms of his
agreement. All benefits are valued as of December 31, 2009.(4)
    
    The amounts for Mr. Dentons Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control are
converted from British Pounds. These amounts were converted using a rate of 1.6163 US$  per £,
the closing rate on December 31, 2009.(5)
    
    These potential payments were calculated based on the terms of Mr. Dentons amended and
restated agreement, effective January 12, 2006, amended and restated effective as of March 21,
2007, and further amended and restated effective as of January 12, 2009. This agreement
provides that in the event the Company terminates Mr. Dentons employment other than for a)
any serious repeated breach of his obligations, or b) serious misconduct which is likely to
materially affect the Company (as defined in the agreement), the Company shall pay Mr. Denton
an amount equal to the amount he would have received under the agreement had his employment
continued through the later of January 12, 2012, or the end of six months following such
termination. In the event of a failure to discharge his duties (as defined in the
agreement), the Company shall pay Mr. Denton an amount equal to the remainder of his salary
and benefits due until January 12, 2012. Additionally, in the event the Company experiences a
change in control (as defined in the agreement) and within twelve months following the
change in control Mr. Halmi is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason, Mr. Denton
shall be entitled to resign within ten days following Mr. Halmis termination and receive a
severance payment equal to the greater of six months base pay, or the base pay he
would have received under the amended and restated agreement had his employment continued
through January 12, 2012. 25

    Pursuant to Mr. Hobermans employment agreement, he is
entitled to receive payments with an aggregate value of $1,000,000,
which, subject to his continued employment, are payable in equal
installments of 1/3 each in January 2009, 2010 and 2011. Any portion
of these payments not paid prior to a termination of his employment
without cause or for good reason, or prior to a change in control,
would be paid to Mr. Hoberman on the occurrence of such event. If any
of these payments were made upon a change in control, they would not
be made again upon a subsequent termination of employment. As of
February 25, 2010, Mr. Hoberman had been paid all but $334,000 of
these contractual payments. Risk Related to Compensation Policies

    Effective February 9, 2009, Mr. Jeff Sagansky was appointed Chairman of the Board of RHI
Inc. and a non-executive employee of RHI, LLC. Mr. Sagansky is
not compensated for his role as Chairman of the Board of RHI Inc.,
but is paid an annual salary of $500,000 in his capacity as a non-executive employee of
RHI, LLC.(2)
    
    On February 9, 2009, the Company granted 350,000 RSUs to Mr. Sagansky. The RSUs have a grant
date fair value equal to $4.04 per share. Subject to his continued service with the Company,
as of each applicable vesting date, 331/3% of the RSUs will generally
vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. With respect to each of
the RSUs, (i) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary date will become
transferable immediately upon vesting, (ii) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each
anniversary will become transferable upon the attainment of a $9.00 stock price performance
hurdle and (iii) 1/3 of the shares that become vested on each anniversary will become
transferable upon the attainment of a $14.00 stock price performance hurdle. On February 9,
2010, Mr. Sagansky entered into a surrender agreement whereby he irrevocably surrendered,
cancelled and forfeited 116,667 RSUs. Subject to Mr. Saganskys continued service, the
remaining 233,333 RSUs will vest on February 9, 2011 (50% of the remaining RSUs) and February
