Chief Information Officer
(1) Fiscal 2013 was 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks for each of fiscal 2012 and 2011, which resulted in
payment of one additional week of base salary for each Named Executive Officer.
(2) Annual incentive awards were paid pursuant to the EICP and therefore appear in the “non-equity incentive
plan compensation” column of the table. Mr. Griffin’s bonus payment in this column reflects the first of two
installments of a sign-on bonus in fiscal 2012 and the second installment of the sign-on bonus in fiscal 2013.
(3) Represents shares acquired pursuant to the Executive Stock Purchase Plan and the 2011 Equity Plan. See
“Compensation Discussion and Analysis” on page 20 for more information about these plans. Mr. Rhodes’
2011 awards include a grant of performance-restricted stock units pursuant to the 2011 Equity Plan. See
“Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Stock Compensation” on page 25 for more information about this
grant. See Note B, Share-Based Payments, to our consolidated financial statements in our 2013 Annual
Report for a description of the 2011 Equity Plan and the Executive Stock Purchase Plan and the accounting
and assumptions used in calculating expenses in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718.
(4) The value of stock awards and option awards was determined as required by FASB ASC Topic 718. There is
no assurance that these values will be realized. See Note B, Share-Based Payments, to our consolidated
financial statements in our 2013 Annual Report for details on assumptions used in the valuation.
(5) Incentive amounts were earned for the 2013 fiscal year pursuant to the EICP and were paid in October,
2013. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” on page 20 for more information about this plan.
(6) Our defined benefit pension plans were frozen in December 2002, and accordingly, benefits do not increase
or decrease. See the Pension Benefits table on page 40 for more information. We did not provide above-
market or preferential earnings on deferred compensation in 2011, 2012 or 2013.
