Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The Company seeks to align the interests of its executives with those of its shareholders by evaluating performance on the basis of key financial measurements that closely correlate to long-term shareholder value. The compensation program is designed to attract, retain, and motivate talented executives while maintaining an appropriate balance between base salary and short-term and long-term incentive opportunities, with a significant portion of total compensation allocated to long-term equity awards to reward the successful creation of long-term shareholder value.

Peer reciprocity

Of the companies Brady names as compensation peers, which name it back in their own disclosed peer groups. A peer set the market reciprocates reads differently from one selected in a single direction.

Reciprocity shown where the peer's own current proxy has been read — each mark is cited in the register to that peer's filing. A dash means the peer's current proxy was read and names no reciprocal group including Brady.
