Fiscal 2011 Annual Incentive Compensation Program
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
Frederick W. Smiths fiscal 2011 annual bonus will be based on the achievement of corporate
objectives for consolidated pre-tax income for fiscal 2011. The independent members of the Board
of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, may adjust Mr. Smiths bonus
amount upward or downward based on their annual evaluation of Mr. Smiths performance, including
the quality and effectiveness of his leadership and the following corporate performance measures:
| |
|
|
FedExs stock price performance relative to the Standard & Poors 500 Composite
Index, the Dow Jones Transportation Average, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and
competitors; |
| |
| |
|
|
FedExs stock price to earnings (P/E) ratio relative to the Standard & Poors 500
Composite Index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and competitors; |
| |
| |
|
|
FedExs market capitalization; |
| |
|
|
FedExs revenue and operating income growth relative to competitors; |
| |
| |
|
|
FedExs free cash flow (excluding business acquisitions), return on invested capital
(excluding certain unusual items), and weighted average cost of capital; |
| |
| |
|
|
Analyst coverage and ratings for FedExs stock; |
| |
| |
|
|
FedExs U.S. and international revenue market share; |
| |
| |
|
|
FedExs reputation rankings by various publications and
surveys; and |
| |
| |
|
|
FedExs restoration of remaining company matching
contributions for 401(k) program. |
None of these factors will be given any particular weight in determining whether to adjust Mr.
Smiths bonus amount.
Mr. Smiths annual bonus target for fiscal 2011 is 130% of his annual base salary (at fiscal
year-end), with a maximum payout of 300% of his target bonus.
Non-CEO Named Executive Officers
The fiscal 2011 annual bonus target payouts for the non-CEO named executive officers, as a
percentage of annual base salary (at fiscal year-end), are as follows:
| |
|
|
|
|
| Name |
|
Target Payout |
|

|
|
100 |
% |
T. Michael Glenn |
|
|
90 |
% |
Robert B. Carter |
|
|
90 |
% |
The maximum payout for each executive is 240% of his target bonus.
The fiscal 2011 annual bonus for the non-CEO named executive officers will be based on:
| |
|
|
the achievement of individual objectives established at the beginning of the fiscal
year for each executive (30% of each executives target bonus); and |
| |
| |
|
|
the achievement of corporate objectives for consolidated pre-tax income for fiscal
2011 (70% of each executives target bonus). |
The annual bonus payout opportunity relating to individual performance will be partially
contingent upon achievement of consolidated pre-tax income objectives under the bonus plan (as well
as achievement of the individual performance objectives). Mr. Smith will determine the achievement
level of each executives individual objectives at the conclusion of fiscal 2011.
The annual bonus payout opportunity relating to company financial performance ranges, on a
sliding scale, from a minimum amount if the annual bonus plans pre-established consolidated
pre-tax income threshold is achieved up to a maximum amount if such financial performance goal is
substantially exceeded. Ordinarily, our business plan objective for consolidated pre-tax income is
the target under the annual bonus plan. For fiscal 2011, however, the annual bonus plans
consolidated pre-tax income target and even the threshold for the portion of the payout opportunity
relating to company financial performance are higher than the business plan objective for
consolidated pre-tax income.

Long-Term Incentive Program
FedExs long-term incentive (LTI) plans for the three-fiscal-year periods 2009 through 2011,
2010 through 2012 and 2011 through 2013, provide long-term cash bonus opportunities to members of
upper management, including the named executive officers, upon the conclusion of fiscal 2011, 2012
and 2013, respectively, if certain aggregate fully diluted earnings per share (EPS) goals
established by the Board of Directors are achieved with respect to those periods. No amounts can
be earned for the fiscal 2009 through 2011, 2010 through 2012 and 2011 through 2013 plans until
2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively, because achievement of the EPS goals can only be determined
following the conclusion of the applicable three-fiscal-year period.
Traditionally, the base-year number over which the three-year average annual EPS growth rate
goals are measured for an LTI plan is the final full-year EPS of the preceding fiscal year. For
the fiscal 2010 through 2012 LTI plan, an adjusted base-year number ($2.93) was used rather than
the final fiscal 2009 EPS. This adjusted base-year number was set so that 12.5% growth from the
number would equal the fiscal 2010 business plan EPS goal.
The following table sets forth the potential future payouts to each of FedExs named executive
officers under FedExs LTI plans:
