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

     On November 4, 2010, Vistaprint N.V. (“we,” “us” or “Vistaprint”) granted an additional annual cash incentive award to Wendy M. Cebula for our fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 in connection with Ms. Cebula’s appointment as Chief Operating Officer. This additional award has a target incentive level of $147,500; the actual amount that we pay to Ms. Cebula will be determined by Vistaprint’s level of achievement of the performance goals described below.

     Our Compensation Committee based Ms. Cebula’s cash incentive award 50% on Vistaprint’s achievement of constant currency revenue goals and 50% on Vistaprint’s achievement of earnings per share (“EPS”) goals, in each case for our full fiscal year ending June 30, 2011. For purposes of calculating these annual incentives, the Compensation Committee defines “constant currency revenue” as consolidated net revenue for Vistaprint and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year, adjusted to use the same currency exchange rates as set forth in Vistaprint’s budget for the fiscal year. “Earnings per share” is defined as earnings per share, on a fully diluted basis for the results of Vistaprint’s operations on a consolidated basis for the fiscal year, calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles with some exclusions for income or expenses relating to several specific unusual events.

     The actual amount to be paid for this annual cash incentive award will be calculated as follows:

	•		The payout is a percentage of the target incentive level listed above, where the payout percentage equals (0.5 X Revenue Target Percentage^0.5 + 0.5 X EPS Target Percentage^0.5)^19.2. The Revenue Target Percentage and EPS Target Percentage are calculated by dividing the actual amounts for the fiscal year by the goals determined by our Supervisory Board and Compensation Committee.
	•		If either Vistaprint’s actual constant currency revenue amount or actual EPS amount is less than 90% of the goal, then the payout will be zero even if the other goal is achieved.
	•		The payout percentage is capped at a maximum of 250%.

          In addition, on November 4, 2010, our Supervisory Board determined that, effective November 15, 2010, which is the date on which the following organizational changes will take place:

	•		In her new role as Chief Customer Officer, Janet Holian will no longer be considered to be an “officer” of Vistaprint within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(f) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or an “executive officer” of Vistaprint within the meaning of Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act
	•		In Nicholas Ruotolo’s new role as President, Vistaprint Europe and in Katryn Shineman’s new role as President, Vistaprint North America, both will be considered to be “officers” of Vistaprint within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act and “executive officers” of Vistaprint within the meaning of Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act.
