Change in Control ProgramThe Company has structured its Change in Control program so that
in the event payment of benefits constitutes a “parachute” payment under Section 280G of the
Internal Revenue Code, the Company will revise and limit the payment so that the Company does
not incur additional tax burden on behalf of the participant. For more information, refer to the
“Executive Change in Control Program” section on page 26.
Executive Incentive PlanThe EIP is structured to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m)
of Internal Revenue Code, which allow certain payments under the plan to be deductible for federal
income tax purposes.
