Directors may defer their cash compensation by participating in the Company’s Deferred Compensation Program (filed February 26, 2008 as Exhibit 10.14 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K).
Directors may receive the equity component of their compensation in restricted stock or restricted stock units (RSUs). In either case, the awards have a 12-month vesting period ending on the day preceding the next annual meeting of shareholders. Vesting accelerates in the event of death, disability or a change in control of the company. The number of shares is calculated by dividing the dollar value by the closing price of the Company’s stock on the grant date. RSUs are settled in shares of common stock and earn dividend equivalents at a 20% discount to the market price of Company stock on the dividend payment date. Directors may elect to defer settlement of the RSU award for up to 10 years after the grant date.
