Timing of Equity Grants
The Company’s guidelines regarding the equity grant process and related controls were reviewed and readopted (with minor changes) in October 2024, which help ensure that all equity grants to employees and directors are reported and disclosed correctly and accurately, are properly accounted for, and receive proper tax treatment. The grant guidelines are designed to avoid making regular grants during a regularly scheduled Company blackout period, to avoid having the timing of grant dates be affected by material nonpublic information, and to confirm the use of no less than the closing price of our stock on the grant date in valuing the grants as a percentage of an executive’s base salary. Grants take place on the 15th day of February, May, August and November or the next available trading day if the 15th falls on a holiday or weekend, unless for legal reasons (including expanded black-out periods) such grants on advice of legal counsel should be postponed. The Company does not grant stock options or similar equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the price of our common stock, such as a significant positive or negative earnings announcement, nor do we time the public release of such information based on stock option grant dates. In addition, we do not grant stock options or similar equity awards during periods in which there is material nonpublic information about our Company, including (i) outside a “trading window” established in connection with the public release of earnings information under our Stock Trading Policy or (ii) at any time during the four business days prior to or the one business day following the filing of our periodic reports or the filing or furnishing of a Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information. The Company has not granted any stock options or similar equity awards as part of its compensation program to its employees or directors since November 2012.
