The committee is committed to ensuring that a substantial portion of executive compensation is ‘‘at-risk’’ and
variable. As such, 90% of the CEO’s total direct compensation and, on average, more than 85% of our other NEOs’ total
direct compensation, is variable and directly affected by both the company’s and the NEO’s performance.
2014 Performance Results
The performance targets established under our annual and long-term incentive plans are designed to be
challenging yet achievable, with above target payouts for strong performance and below target payouts (including no
payout) for below target performance. Targets are based on historical peer and company performance, expectations for
our pipeline products, and expected business, market, and regulatory conditions.
