(c) Common Stock in Lieu of Board Fees

 

Each Director may elect by written notice delivered on or before the first day of each calendar year whether to receive, in lieu of some or all of his or her retainer and board fees, that number of shares of Company Common Stock as shall have a value equal to the applicable retainer and board fees, based on the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on its then-current trading platform or exchange on the last trading day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable year. Once made, the election shall be irrevocable for such election year and the shares subject to the election shall vest and be issued one-fourth upon the first day of the election year and one-fourth as of the first day of each of the second through fourth calendar quarters thereafter during the remainder of the election year. For the 2017 calendar year, Messrs. Woolard and Jackson elected to receive Common Stock in lieu of retainer and board fees of $17 and $15, respectively. Accordingly, Messrs. Woolard and Jackson were issued for the first nine months of 2017 70,833 and 62,501 shares of Common Stock, respectively. They received a combined 44,444 shares on October 2, 2017.
