Exhibit 10.2 Rewards - Compensation Long-Term Incentive Plan – (LTI) Plan |
|
Purpose |
The LTI plan rewards participants for their contribution to the Company’s long-term financial results. The plan rewards participants based on shareholder value creation in two ways. First, the price at the end of the performance period would determine the value of the shares awarded. Second, performance against company goals would determine the number of shares earned for a performance-contingent portion (25%) of the award. These performance-based shares are earned based on the degree of achievement of a Return on Invested Capital goal. |
|
Eligibility |
To participate in the LTI Plan, an employee must be a regular full-time or part-time employee of the Company in job grades 29 or higher. Consultants and temporary agency employees performing services at Company facilities are not eligible to participate. |
|
Design |
The plan design is comprised of 50% Non-Qualified Stock Options (NQSO), 25% time-based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and 25% performance-based RSUs. |
|
Time-Based Awards | |
|
Non-qualified stock options vest after a service requirement is met. You can exercise the vested options at any time within the remainder of the term. Time-based RSUs also vest after a service requirement is met. Once vested, they are assigned a fair market value and you will receive the shares. | |
|
Performance-Based Awards | |
|
Performance-based RSUs are earned based on performance against a pre-established goal. The performance measure for these shares is Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”), which is defined in the Appendix. | |
|
The number of shares earned are based on actual performance relative to threshold, target, and superior levels of performance, as defined in the table below: |
|

<Threshold |
0% |
|
If performance is less than threshold, the performance-based RSU’s will vest with a value of 0, i.e., no shares will be earned. If the target level is achieved, the performance-based RSU will vest at 100%. Performance between threshold and target and target and superior will be calculated on a pro rata basis. | |
| This payout schedule applies to each year of the 3-year award (i.e., 3 separate performance periods for each award). | |
|
|
Details of the stock plan related to stock grants are provided in the individual agreements. |
