Each company listed discloses HIW in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named HIW in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

variable compensation is a significant part of compensation, with the percentage at-risk increasing at higher levels of responsibility; differences in executive compensation should reflect differing levels of responsibility and performance; employee stock ownership aligns the interests of named executives and stockholders; performance-based compensation focuses named executives on strategic business objectives and aligns pay with performance through performance-leveraged incentive opportunities; compensation must be competitive with that offered by other companies that compete with us to attract and retain the best possible executive talent.
