Board
amends Section 7 containing the terms for automatic awards for
Non-Employee Directors, effective January 1, 2007
|
|
October
17, 2007
|
Board
amends Section 7 as follows:
Define
“Grant Date” for a particular calendar year as the first business day in
March of that calendar year. Previously, the grant date for
awards in 2006 and 2007 was the first business day in January of that
particular calendar year. This amendment becomes effective
starting with grants for 2008.
Amend
the basis for calculating the per share value of stock option awards, so
it is based on the average closing price of Stock during the months of
November, December, and January preceding the
grant. Previously, the per share value of stock options awards
for grants in 2006 and 2007 was based on the average closing price of
Stock during the preceding month of November. This amendment
becomes effective starting with grants for 2008.
Clarify
the language for settling restricted stock awards upon a Nonemployee
Director’s retirement from the Board, to indicate that shares credited to
a Nonemployee Director’s Restricted Stock Unit account may be settled
after a Nonemployee Director ceases to be a member of the Board of
Directors following five years of service on the Board.
|
|
September
17, 2008
|
Board
amends Section 7 containing the terms for automatic awards for Nonemployee
Directors, effective January 1, 2009, to increase the total value of
annual equity awards to Nonemployee Directors from $80,000 to
$90,000. Of this amount, $45,000 of equity awards shall be
Restricted Stock, and the remaining $45,000 shall be a mixture of Options
and Restricted Stock Units, consistent with the Plan and with each
Nonemployee Director’s election.
|
|
Effective
January 1, 2009
|
Plan
is amended to comply with the final regulations under Section 409A of the
Code
|
|
February
18, 2009
|
Plan
is amended to delay grant and pricing of 2009 grants for non-employee
directors, to be consistent with 2009 grants to
employees.
