Annual Committee Membership Fees - $12,500 for each Committee (non-chair members).
Each equity award is made pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Equity Incentive Plan. In addition, the Director Phantom Stock Plan offers non-employee directors the opportunity to defer cash compensation and to receive that compensation (to the extent that it is actually earned by service during that period) in shares of common stock rather than in cash after termination of service or on a specific payment date. Such compensation includes the annual retainer, presiding director, committee chair and committee membership fees.
