ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS. On February 5, 2020, prior to the COVID-19 related shutdown in the U.S., the Compensation Committee ("Committee") of the Board of Directors of Gartner, Inc. (the "Corporation") established performance measures for the performance stock units (the "PSUs") awarded to the Corporation's executive officers in 2020 under the Gartner, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Based on preliminary corporate performance results for the 2020 performance measures, the 2020 PSUs would have been earned at 50% of target. However, on February 3, 2021, the Committee determined to use its discretion under the Plan to approve a PSU payout at 95% of target. In deciding to exercise this discretion to adjust the PSU payout, the Committee considered the Corporation's strong overall performance in 2020 despite the significant negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
