Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The Compensation Committee believes that as an officer's responsibility increases, so does his or her ability to influence the performance of the company and accordingly, the proportion of his or her compensation that consists of his or her salary and cash bonus should decrease while the proportion of equity incentives to total compensation should increase.
