Section 8.8                                    If any term of this Agreement is determined by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party.

8

 

acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement or Schedules attached hereto are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

Exhibit 10.17

Summary of Director Compensation

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of Black Box Corporation (the "Company"), upon the recommendation of the Nominating & Governance Committee of the Board (the "Governance Committee") on the advice of its compensation consultants as to prevailing Board practices, are paid an annual retainer to $70,000, payable quarterly. 

The Chairpersons of each of the Audit Committee of the Board, Compensation Committee of the Board and Governance Committee each receive an annual retainer of $15,000, payable quarterly. The non-executive Chairperson of the Board receives an annual retainer of $75,000, payable quarterly. 

In recent years, each non-employee director also received an immediately-vested restricted stock unit award with a value of approximately $100,000.  Due to Company performance and the limited number of shares available under the Company’s incentive plan, this year each non-employee director received a stock option grant for 30,000 shares vesting in one year and with an exercise price of $2.85 per share.  Such options had a Black Scholes value on grant of approximately $46,000.

The Company maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance. Directors also are reimbursed customary expenses for attending meetings of the board of directors, board committees and stockholders.
