DSW INC. SUMMARY OF DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Our current director compensation policies provide that each director who does not otherwise receive compensation from DSW will receive:
• | An annual cash retainer of $75,000; |
• | An annual equity retainer of $140,000; and |
• | An additional annual retainer for committee service for each committee on which such director serves (provided that the committee chairs do not receive such additional retainer) as follows: |
•Audit Committee - $20,000
•Compensation Committee - $15,000
•Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee - $15,000
•Technology Committee - $15,000
The annual retainers are paid as follows:
• | The annual cash retainer and the additional annual retainer for committee service are payable in quarterly installments on the last day of each fiscal quarter; and |
• | The annual equity retainer is payable on the date of each annual meeting of the shareholders for the purpose of electing directors, determined by dividing the amount of the retainer by the share price of our Class A Common Shares on the grant date. |
Directors do not receive any additional compensation for attending board meetings or board committee meetings. However, the chairmen of the Audit Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Compensation Committee, and Technology Committee each receive an additional $35,000, $25,000, $30,000, and $25,000 in cash or stock units (as they may elect) per year, respectively. We pay this compensation on a quarterly basis. All members of our Board of Directors are reimbursed for reasonable costs and expenses incurred in attending meetings of our Board of Directors and its committees.
Non-management directors may elect to have any of the cash portion of their compensation paid in the form of stock units in lieu of cash.
Stock units issued to a director are fully vested on the date of grant. Beginning in calendar year 2012, the director may elect to have the stock units distributed (i) 30 days following the grant date, (ii) at a specified future date more than 30 days following the grant date, or (iii) when the director leaves the Board (for any reason). Stock units are settled in DSW Class A Common Shares, unless the director’s award agreement provides for a cash settlement. The stock units are settled in a lump sum.
Directors have no voting rights in respect to the stock units, but they will have the power to vote the DSW Class A Common Shares received upon settlement of the award. In general, directors have equivalent rights to receive dividends paid on DSW Class A Common Shares. Each director is “credited” with the same dividend that would be issued if the stock unit was a DSW Class A Common Share. The amounts associated with the dividend equivalent rights will not be distributed until the director’s stock unit award is settled.
