Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 5, 2008, SBA Senior Finance, Inc. (“SBASF”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of SBA Communications Corporation (“SBAC”) entered into a New Lender Supplement with The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc (“RBSG”) in connection with the credit agreement for the $285 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) previously entered into on January 18, 2008. The New Lender Supplement added RBSG as a lender under the Senior Credit Facility. The New Lender Supplement was effective March 6, 2008 and increased the Senior Credit Facility commitments from $285.0 million to $335.0 million, based on compliance with certain financial ratios. All other terms of the Senior Credit Facility remain the same.

The foregoing description of the Senior Credit Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the description of the Senior Credit Facility in the Form 8-K filed on January 24, 2008, the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, copies of which were previously filed with the SEC with the same Form 8-K, and the New Lender Supplement attached hereto and hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) In connection with the completion of SBAC’s year-end audit, on February 21, 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of SBAC approved payment of cash bonus payments for each of its named executive officers. Pursuant to the terms of their cash bonus plans, previously adopted in February 2007, Messrs. Stoops, Bagwell, Hunt, Macaione and Silberstein received annual bonuses for approximately $475,000, $250,000, $244,800, $98,635 and $203,500, respectively. On February 28, 2008, the Compensation Committee also approved option grants to its named executive officers. Messrs. Stoops, Bagwell, Hunt, Macaione and Silberstein received grants for 150,000, 65,000, 65,000, 50,000 and 47,500 shares, respectively, with a grant date of February 28, 2008 and an exercise price equal to $32.39, the closing price of our stock on such date.

On February 21, 2008, the Compensation Committee also approved 2008 salaries and adopted cash bonus plans for 2008 for its named executive officers. The new salaries for 2008 for Messrs. Stoops, Bagwell, Hunt, Macaione and Silberstein were $490,000, $300,000, $300,000, $270,000 and $160,000, respectively. Pursuant to the cash bonus plans, the Committee establishes target annual incentive opportunities, expressed as a percent of base salary, for each named executive officer. For Messrs. Stoops, Bagwell, Hunt and Macaione these target annual bonus opportunities are equal to 100%, 100%, 100% and 50%, respectively. Pursuant to the bonus plan, none of these executive officers may receive more than 100% of their respective target bonus. Achievement of this target bonus opportunity is tied directly to the achievement of company-wide financial and strategic performance targets and a subjective evaluation of the performance of the individual executive officer during fiscal 2008. The table below sets forth the weighting of the company-wide financial and strategic performance targets and the subjective component of the bonuses for 2008 for each named executive officer.
