Relationship between Company Pay and Performance
To focus on both the short and long-term success of the Company, our NEOs’ compensation includes a significant portion,
approximately 80%, that is ‘‘at-risk’’ pay, where the compensation paid is determined based on Company results. If short-term
and long-term financial and operational goals are not achieved, then performance-related compensation will decrease. If goals
are exceeded, then performance-related compensation will increase. As demonstrated below, our target pay mix for NEOs
emphasizes our commitment to ‘‘at-risk’’ pay in order to tie pay to performance.
