Discussion of Director Compensation
Discussion of Director Compensation We pay three primary components of compensation to our non-management directors: an annual cash retainer, committee chairman fees, and equity awards, generally comprising of equity awards such as stock options. In setting director compensation, the Company considers the significant amount of time that directors expend in fulfilling their duties on our Board of Directors and its committees as well as the skill level required by the Company of members of the Board of Directors and the need to continue to attract highly qualified candidates to serve on our Board of Directors. Director compensation arrangements are reviewed annually to maintain such standards. In 2025, members of our Board of Directors were compensated as follows: (i) all non-employee directors serving on the Board of Directors each received an annual stock option grant in May 2025 of 16,000 shares at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of such grant, and vesting and becoming exercisable in four equal consecutive quarterly tranches; (ii) all non-employee directors serving on the Board of Directors received an annual payment of $65,000, payable in equal quarterly installments, in consideration for their services on the Board; (iii) Mr. Delzanno, the lead independent director of the Board of Directors, received an additional annual payment of $30,000, payable in four equal consecutive quarterly tranches, in consideration of his service as the lead independent director of the Board of Directors; (iv) Mr. Quigley received an additional annual payment of $27,500, payable in four equal consecutive quarterly tranches, in consideration for his service as the chairman of the Board of Directors’ Audit Committee; and (v) Mr. Norton received an additional annual payment of $15,000, payable in four equal consecutive quarterly tranches, in consideration for his service as the chairman of the Board of Directors’ Compensation Committee.
