ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
On October 12, 2005, the stockholders of Paychex, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the amendments to the Paychex, Inc. 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan” or the “2002 Plan”), as adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors on July 7, 2005.
The Plan was amended to (1) increase the types of awards that may be granted under the plan, and (2) increase the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the plan by 20,000,000 to a total of 29,107,569. Previously, the Plan authorized the granting of common stock-based awards in the form of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. The Plan, as amended and restated, additionally authorizes the granting of stock appreciation rights, stock awards, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance awards.

The grant to Mr. Judge became effective on October 12, 2005 with the stockholders’ approval of the 2002 Plan, as noted above.
