Companies that benchmark against VABK
1 company names VABK as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses VABK 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 VABK in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The Board believes compensation of its executive officers should reflect and support the Company's strategic and financial performance goals, the primary goal being the creation of long-term value for the shareholders of the Company, while protecting the interests of the depositors of the Bank. The philosophy behind the compensation program is to provide both cash compensation, in the form of salaries and bonuses, as well as stock incentives, in an effort to promote an ownership mentality among the executive officers and other key individuals within the Company and its affiliates.
