Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis
Executive compensation is designed to be competitive, align pay with corporate strategy and stockholder interests, and provide the majority of total compensation in variable form. The company emphasizes pay-for-performance, uses peer benchmarking, does not provide guaranteed incentive compensation, does not provide significant perquisites, does not offer enhanced retirement benefits, does not provide excise tax gross-ups, maintains stock ownership guidelines, has a clawback policy, prohibits hedging and pledging, sets maximum payout limits, and provides double-trigger equity acceleration upon a change in control.

c. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “However, abstentions and broker non-votes could prevent the approval of Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 as they have the same effect as votes "against" each such proposal because they represent shares present and entitled to vote that are not voted in favor of such proposal.”.
