|
We pay a mix of compensation which includes near-term cash and long-term equity-based compensation.
|
•
|
We base our annual incentive cash bonus and long-term equity compensation awards on several different performance metrics, which discourages our employees from placing undue emphasis on any one metric or aspect of our business at the expense of others.
|
•
|
We believe that our performance metrics are reasonably challenging, yet should not require undue risk-taking to achieve.
|
•
|
Our performance metrics include quantitative financial and operational metrics as well as qualitative metrics related to our operations, strategy and other aspects of our business.
|
•
|
The performance periods under our performance-based restricted stock units overlap, and our time-vested restricted stock units generally vest over a five-year period. This mitigates the motivation to maximize performance in any one period at the expense of others.
|
•
|
Our NEOs are required to own our stock as provided in our Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines.
|
•
|
We believe that we have an effective management process for developing and executing our short and long-term business plans.
|
•
|
Our compensation policies and programs are overseen by the C&B Committee.
|
•
|
The C&B Committee retains an independent compensation consultant.
