Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis
Compensation of the Company’s executive officers is intended to be competitive with compensation offered by other companies generally similar to the Company in size and lines of business. The annual incentive plan is customarily structured so that a significant portion of each executive’s potential annual compensation may consist of equity awards, the award value of which is tied to accomplishing both financial and non-financial goals and objectives.
