Director Compensation
The Compensation Committee, which consists solely of independent directors, has the primary responsi-
bility to review and recommend to the Board for approval the compensation programs for non-employee mem-
bers of the Board, including but not limited to retainers, committee fees, committee chair fees and equity
compensation. The Compensation Committee reviews the non-employee directors’ compensation annually and
takes various factors into consideration when determining the Board’s annual compensation, including, but not
limited to the following:
‰the responsibilities of the Board, the committees and committee chairs;
‰compensation paid to directors of our peer group; and
‰recommendations made by the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consulting firm,
Mercer.
The policy of the Board is that compensation for independent directors should be a mix of cash and equity-
based compensation. Symantec does not pay employee directors for Board service in addition to their regular
employee compensation. Independent directors may not receive consulting, advisory or other compensatory fees
from the Company.
