On October�29, 2014, the Board of Directors of SPS Commerce, Inc. (the �Company�) approved the following amendments to the Company�s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the �Plan�):

�

�

�

�

The provision in the Plan giving the Compensation Committee the authority, in its discretion, to take action to reprice underwater stock options and stock appreciation rights was deleted, and a provision was added to the Plan that would require approval by the Company�s stockholders for any action that would be considered a repricing of underwater stock options or stock appreciation rights, including the cancellation of underwater awards in exchange for cash or other equity awards.

�

�

�

�

The provision in the Plan that had permitted liberal recycling of shares subject to the Plan�s share reserve was amended to permit replenishment of the Plan�s share reserve only upon the cancellation, forfeiture, expiration or cash settlement of a Plan award, and to specifically prohibit replenishment of the Plan�s share reserve in connection with shares tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price or withholding taxes associated with a stock option or stock appreciation rights award, shares repurchased by the Company with option exercise proceeds or shares subject to a stock appreciation rights award that are not issued in the stock settlement of such an award.

Item�8.01.
