(e) Adoption of Annual Incentive Plan. On September 18, 2014, Hamilton Bank (the “Bank”), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Hamilton Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Hamilton Bank FY 2015 Annual Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), effective for the 2014 fiscal year, to motivate and reward senior management for their contributions to the performance and success of the Bank. The Plan focuses on the financial measures that are critical to the Bank’s growth and profitability.
Participants in the Plan will be proposed by the Chief Executive Officer and approved by the Compensation Committee. Members of senior management are eligible to participate in the Plan. Each participant will have a target award (expressed as a percentage of eligible earnings) and range that defines the participant’s incentive opportunity. Actual awards will be allocated based on specific performance goals defined for each participant and ranging from 0% to 150% of target incentive. To activate the annual incentive plan, 80% of budgeted net income must be met. The Plan will reward Bank performance through four key performance measures, i.e., net income, net loan growth, efficiency ratio and net charge-offs over average loans. The Bank’s target performance will be defined by management and approved by the Board of Directors each year. Goals will be defined at three levels (threshold, target and stretch) to correspond with the Bank’s strategic objectives and budgetary plans.
Awards will be paid within 75 days following the Plan year end, which is March 31 of each year and after the Bank’s audited performance results are confirmed. In the event of the participant’s termination of employment during the Plan year, no award will be paid. However, if the participant’s termination is due to disability, death or retirement (as determined in accordance with the Bank’s policies), the participant, or the participant’s estate, will be paid a pro-rated award. All awards made under the Plan are subject to a clawback in the event the Bank is required to restate its financial statements.
The foregoing description of the material terms of the Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
