Rick D. Weyen Vice President, Operations | $298,900 |
2013 Incentive Compensation Payments
On February 7, 2014, the Chairman of the Board and independent directors of the Company, acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Board, approved the payment under the 2013 Incentive Compensation Program (the “2013 ICP” or the “2013 Program”) for the executive officers (other than those executive officers who are also executive officers of Tesoro Corporation), as follows:
Executive Officers | 2013 Annual Bonus Payment |
Phillip M. Anderson | $199,914 |

2014 Incentive Compensation Program
On February 7, 2014, the Chairman of the Board and independent directors, acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Board, approved the participation of the Company’s President and Vice President of Operations in the Tesoro Corporation 2014 Incentive Compensation Program (the “2014 ICP” or the “2014 Program”). In addition, the Board approved the target payout for such officers. Similar to the 2013 Program, the 2014 Program consists of two equally weighted components: Tesoro Corporation’s overall performance and Business Unit performance outlined below. The performance results of Tesoro Corporation and the individual business units may be adjusted to take into account unbudgeted business decisions, unusual or non-recurring items, and other factors, as approved by Tesoro Corporation’s Compensation Committee, to determine the total amount, if any, available under the 2014 ICP. The Chairman of the Board and independent directors of the Company have discretion to adjust individual awards, if any, for Company executives based on their assessment of an individual executive’s performance relative to successful achievement of goals, business plan execution and other leadership attributes.
Component 1 - Corporate Performance - measured against target with the range of outcomes between 0% to 200%. Tesoro Corporation performance metrics include the following:
• | Achievement of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) measured on a margin neutral basis (this is the more heavily weighted metric, constituting 50% of the bonus opportunity for the corporate performance component); |
• | Safety - Targeted improvement in recordable incidents (this metric constitutes 5% of the bonus opportunity for the corporate performance component); |
• | Process Safety Management - Targeted improvement in the number of process safety incidents (this metric constitutes 5% of the bonus opportunity for the corporate performance component); |
• | Environmental - Targeted improvements in the number of environmental incidents (this metric constitutes 5% of the bonus opportunity for the corporate performance component); |
• | Cost Management - Measurement of non-capital cash expenditure versus budget (this metric constitutes 17.5% of the bonus opportunity for the corporate performance component); and |
• | Business Improvement - Targeted improvements from value creation projects/initiatives (this metric constitutes 17.5% of the bonus opportunity for the corporate performance component). |
2
Component 2 - Business Unit Performance - measured against target with the range of outcomes between 0% to 200%. Business Unit performance is measured through balanced scorecards with performance metrics including, but not limited to:
• | Safety and Environmental; |
• | Cost Management; |
• | Improvements in EBITDA; and |
• | Business improvement and value creation initiatives. |
The business units used for the executive officers (other than those executive officers who are also executive officers of Tesoro Corporation), and the target payout amounts are as follows:
Executive Officers | Business Unit | Total Target Payout Amount(a) |
Phillip M. Anderson | The Partnership | 65% |
Rick D. Weyen | Business unit results are tied to the Partnership’s performance as well as the performance of all of Tesoro’s logistical assets (other than the Partnership and including logistics assets for which the Partnership may have the right of first refusal). | 50% |
___________
(a) Percentage to be applied to base salary earnings during the 2014 calendar year.
Grant of Awards to Executive Officers under the Company’s 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan
On February 7, 2014, the Chairman of the Board and independent directors, acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Board, approved the grants of performance phantom unit awards with distribution equivalent rights (the “Awards”) listed below to the executive officers of the Company (with Mr. Goff abstaining from voting on his award). The awards will vest at the end of a performance period ending on December 31, 2016 and will be adjusted based on the achievement of relative total unitholder return compared to a peer group of companies. The number of performance phantom units that actually vest will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of performance phantom units granted.
Grants of Awards to Executive Officers
Executive Officers & Title | Number of Performance-Based Phantom Units |
Gregory J. Goff, CEO and Chairman of the Board | 28,216 |
Phillip M. Anderson President | 3,136 |

The Awards were made according to the terms of the form of performance phantom unit agreement (the “Award Agreement”) pursuant to which performance phantom units may be issued under the Tesoro Logistics LP 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as well as the related 2014 Grant Performance Vesting Phantom Units Summary (the “Phantom Units Summary”). The Award Agreement is used to set forth the terms of grants for performance phantom units to certain participants under the Plan, including the Partnership’s executive officers. The Award Agreement contemplates that individual grants of performance phantom units will vest at the end of a performance period specified in the Award Agreement based on the Partnership’s performance during the performance period. The actual number of performance phantom units that vest at the end of the performance period will be determined based on the Partnership’s average total unitholder return as compared to that of its peer group’s average total unitholder return during the performance period, and may range from 0% to 200% of the target number of performance phantom units granted. The Partnership’s peer group may be determined from time to time by the Board or any committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan. Any unvested performance phantom units will be forfeited under certain circumstances regarding termination.
Each performance phantom unit granted under the Award Agreement is granted in tandem with an accompanying distribution equivalent right, which entitles the grantee to receive payments in an amount equal to any distributions made by the Partnership with respect to the Partnership’s common units underlying the performance phantom units.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Award Agreement and Phantom Units Summary which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
