Our director compensation structure encompasses only cash compensation. Cash fees
payable to our non-employee directors consist solely of a $40,000 annual retainer fee, payable in
quarterly installments. We do not compensate for Board service any director who simultaneously
serves as a Dollar General employee. We will reimburse directors for certain fees and expenses
incurred in connection with continuing education seminars and for travel and related expenses
related to Dollar General business. We allow directors to travel on the Dollar General airplane
for those purposes.
