Other Risk Oversight
Our Board Governance Committee manages risks associated with the independence of our Board, corporate governance and potential conflicts of interest. Our Investment Committee oversees the management of risks associated with our credit, liquidity, investments and investment strategy. We alsorelated strategies.
In addition, we have numerous management committees that meet regularly to discusstasked in part with reviewing risks and potential risks as they arise or may arise fromday-to-day inrelated to their variousrespective day-to-day functional areas,areas. These management committees meet regularly and regularly report their results to the appropriatefull Board committees and the entire Board.
of Directors or applicable committee.
We also have robust internal dialog amongst our operations, finance, treasury, tax, legal and internal audit departments, among others, whenever a potential risk arises, and any sucharises. These discussions are escalated to our CEO, CFO, Chief FinancialOperating Officer, or CFO, Vice President andChief Compliance Officer, General Counsel, Chief Human Resources Officer, Vice President and Chief TechnologyInnovation Officer, or Vice President, Internal Audit, as appropriate, with open lines of communication among them, the various management committees described above, the various committees of the Board and the entire Board.
We believe that the Board’s approach toand continued evaluation of its risk oversight, as described above, optimizes its ability to assess the various risks, make informed cost-benefit decisions, and approach emerging risks in a proactive manner for Diebold. We also believe that our boardBoard leadership structure complements our risk management structure asbecause it allows our independent directors through our fully independent committees, to exercise effective oversight of the actions of management in identifying risks and implementing effective risk management policies and controls.
In connection with their regular review of the company’s risk oversight, the Board and management conducted a comprehensive review of our risk identification, communication and oversight structure, and at the direction of the Board we will be making improvements to our existing program during 2011. In particular, we are in the process of creating a cross-functional Diebold Risk Council, consisting of senior members of management, which will better align our efforts of identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring enterprise-wide risks, and which will better coordinate our risk management decisions, practices, policies and activities across the company. The Diebold Risk Council will receive regular reports from the other management committees noted above, and will provide regular communications, and a more consistent method of communication, to our CFO, CEO and the Board.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
The following director compensation is determined by the Board at the recommendation of the Board Governance Committee. With respect to non-employee directors, it is the company’s goal to provide directors with fair and competitive compensation, while ensuring that their compensation is closely aligned with stockholder interests and with the performance of the company.
In 2010,During 2012, our non-employee directors received an annual retainer of $55,000$65,000 for their service as directors, and our Chairman of the Board received an additional retainer of $7,500 per month.
In addition to their annual retainer,retainers, our non-employee directors also received the following annual committee fees for their participation as members or as Chairs of one or more Board committees:
| | | | | | | |
| | | Members | | | Chair |
| Audit Committee | | $ | 9,000 | | | $15,000 |
| Compensation Committee | | $ | 7,000 | | | $12,000 |
| Board Governance Committee | | $ | 5,000 | | | $8,000 |
| Investment Committee | | $ | 3,000 | | | $5,000 |

| Board Governance Committee | $ | 5,000 |
| | $ | 8,000 |
| |
| Investment Committee | $ | 3,000 |
| | $ | 5,000 |
| |
Additionally, members of the Special Committee also received $1,500 for each Special Committee meeting held and the Chair of the Special Committee received a $10,000 annual retainer in addition to the per meeting fee.
The differences in fees between the committees and between the committee members and Chairsvarying fee amounts are intended to reflect differing levels of responsibility, meeting requirements and fiduciary duties.
The fees for a director who joins or leaves the Board or assumes additional responsibilities during the year are pro-rated for his or her period of actual service.
A director may elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of his or her cash compensation pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan No. 2 for Directors.
In addition to cash compensation, each non-employee director may also receive equity awards under our Amended and Restated 1991 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, which we refer to as the 1991 Plan. The aim of the Board is to provide a balanced mix of cash and equity compensation to our directors, and itwhich mix targets the directors’ total pay at the median of a peer group of companies in similar industries and of comparable size and revenue. This peer group is the same one used by our Compensation Committee andfor benchmarking executive compensation, which is discussed in more detail below in “Peer Group ComparisonCompanies and Competitive Market Data” under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”
Prior to 2007, our non-employee directors received stock option awards under the 1991 Plan. All suchThose stock options that vested prior to December 31, 2005 are entitled to reload rights, under which an optionee can elect to pay the exercise price using previously owned shares and receive a new option at the then-current market price for a number of shares equal to those surrendered. The reload feature is only available, however, if the optionee agrees to defer receipt of the balance of the option shares for at least two years.
Beginning in 2007, our non-employee directors were awarded deferred common shares instead of stock options. The deferred shares vest one year from the date of grant, but receipt is deferred until the laterlatest of (1) three years from the date of grant, (2) retirement from the Board or (3) attainment of the age of 65. We believe deferred shares strengthen the directors’ ties to shareholder interests by providing awards that more effectively build stock ownership and ensure that the directors’ long-term economic interests are aligned with those of other shareholders.
In 2010,2012, each non-employee director was awarded 2,8002,850 deferred common shares.
The following table details the cash retainers and fees received by our non-employee directors during 2010,2012, as well as the aggregate grant date fair value of stock grants awarded during 20102012 pursuant to our 1991 Plan:

Director Stock Ownership Guidelines
In 2007, the Board Governance Committee established stock ownership guidelines for each non-employee director. Under the ownership guidelines, each non-employee director is expected to own at least 6,500 common shares. These ownership guidelines are intended to build stock ownership among non-employee directors and ensure that their long-term economic interests are aligned with those of other shareholders. As reflected below under “Security Ownership of Directors and Management,” the majority of our directors have exceeded the ownership guidelines, while our directors who were appointed most recently are on track to achieve the ownership guidelines within the next few years. We do not impose any penalties on directors who fail to meet the stock ownership guidelines.

Identifying and Evaluating Nominees for Directors
The Board Governance Committee utilizes a variety ofconsiders many methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for director.director-nominees. The Board Governance Committee regularly reviews the appropriate size of the Board and whether any vacancies on the Board are anticipated due to retirement or otherwise.
In the event that When vacancies arise or are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the Board Governance Committee considers various potential candidates for director.candidates. Candidates may come to the attention of the Board Governance Committee through current Board members, professional search firms, shareholders or other persons.
Specifically, in 2012, the Board Governance Committee engaged Heidrick & Struggles, a global board- and executive-level search firm, to assist with identifying potential director candidates.
As described above, the Board Governance Committee considers properly submitted shareholder nominations for candidates for the Board. Following verification of the recommending shareholder’s status, recommendations are considered by the Board Governance Committee at a regularly scheduled meeting.
Majority Voting Policy
In 2007, the Board adopted a majority voting policy whereby,which provides that, in an uncontested election, any nominee for director who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” election, which we refer to as a Majority Withheld Vote, is expected to tender his or her resignation following certification of the shareholder vote. In such an event, theThe Board Governance Committee will then consider the tendered resignation and make a recommendation to the Board. The Board will act on the Board Governance Committee’s recommendation within 90 days following certification of the shareholder vote. Any director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to this policy will not participate in the Board Governance Committee recommendation or Board action regarding whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation.
However, if each member of the Board Governance Committee received a Majority Withheld Vote in the same election, then the Board will appoint a committee comprised solely of independent directors who did not receive a Majority Withheld Vote at that election to consider each tendered resignation offer and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject each resignation. Further, if all of the directors received a Majority Withhold Vote in the same election, then the Board will appoint a committee comprised solely of independent directors to consider each tendered resignation offer and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject each resignation.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of our common shares, to file with the SEC reports of ownership of our securities on Form 3 and changes in reported ownership on Form 4 or Form 5. Such directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders are also required by SEC rules to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
In 2012, due to administrative oversight, one grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) to Frank A. Natoli, Jr. was not timely reported on Form 4. A Form 5 was timely filed reflecting Mr. Natoli’s annual statement of changes in beneficial ownership. Based solely upon a review of the reports furnished to us, or written representations from reporting persons that all other reportable transactions were reported, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2010,2012, our directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders timely filed all other reports they were required to file under Section 16(a).

The Compensation Committee, or the Committee, has oversight responsibility for the development and administration of Diebold’s executive compensation policies and programs. This “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” explains how and why the Committee arrived at specific compensation policies and decisions for our Named Executive Officers in 2012, as well as compensation decisions for 2013.
Our Business and 2012 Highlights
Diebold is a global leader in providing integrated self-service delivery and security systems and services primarily to the financial, commercial, government, and retail markets in nearly 90 countries worldwide. In 2012, we focused on three pillars to accelerate the company into a world-class, software-led services provider:
A strategy that leverages our leadership in software-led services, attuned with the needs of our core global markets for financial self-service and security solutions.
The financial capacity to implement that strategy and fund the investments necessary to drive growth, while preserving the ability to return value to shareholders in the form of reliable, growing dividends and, as appropriate, share repurchases.
A disciplined risk assessment process, focused on proactively identifying and mitigating potential risks to our continued success.
The Committee designed the 2012 executive pay program is managed by the Compensation Committee, which we refer to in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis as the Committee. The role of the Committee is to oversee our executive pay plans and policies, administer our stock plans and, with input from our CEO, Chief Human Resources Officer and independent compensation consultant, annually review and make recommendations to the Board for all pay decisions relating to our executives, including our Named Executive Officers.
Executive Summary
Our executive pay program is designedOfficers primarily to motivate, incentivize and reward the achievement of financial and performance goals using metrics that we believe arerelated to these strategies. The Committee
evaluated factors within the best indicators offollowing 3 categories for the success of our business, including some that may be calculated on a non-GAAP basis.
In order to confirm the continued appropriateness of each element of our2012 executive pay program, the Committee annually reviews the pay practiceseach described in more detail under “2012 Pay Elements” below:
Overall corporate achievement of similarly sized peer companies in related industries. The Committee believes that the executive pay program for our Named Executive Officers in 2010 was designed to incentivize and achieve ourpay-for-performance goals, and was instrumental in helping us achieve strong financial
19
performance in 2010 based on the Committee’s executive pay philosophy and its subjective evaluations of the following, among other factors:
| | |
| • | The Named Executive Officers’ roles in executing our short- and long-term strategic goals; |
|
| • | Achievement of the following 2010 financial results: |
| | |
| ○ | Total revenue of $2.8 billion, an increase of 3.9% over 2009; |
|
| ○ | Gross profit of $720 million, an increase of 10.7% over 2009, with gross profit margin increasing 1.6 percentage points over 2009; |
|
| ○ | Free cash flow (non-GAAP) of $22.1 million (free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities, excluding capital expenditures); |
|
| ○ | Non-GAAPnon-GAAP earnings per share, or EPS of $2.33, an increase of 41% over 2009 (non-GAAP EPS is net income per share, excluding restructuring charges, non-routine income and expenses, and a non-cash impairment charge); |
| | |
| • | Our SmartBusiness (SB) 200 cost savings initiative led to over $40 million inyear-over-year cost savings; |
|
| • | Total shareholder return (TSR) over the prior three-year period of 44.3%; and |
|
| • | The remediation of all material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. |
The Committee believes that using non-GAAP financial metrics is a better indication of our base-line performance, and that the exclusion of restructuring charges, non-routine income and expenses, and income and impairment charges, permits evaluation and comparison of results for our core business operations. It is also on a non-GAAP basis that management internally assesses the company’s performance and provides guidance to our investors.
Summary of 2010 Executive Pay Actions and Results
Base Salary:
| | |
| • | Annual merit increases for all executives averaged 3.4%, and for the Named Executive Officers (excluding Mr. Chen and Mr. Ducey), 3.0%. |
|
| • | Mr. Chen received a promotional increase of 5% due to his promotion to Executive Vice President, International Operations, which expanded the scope of his existing responsibilities over our Asia-Pacific and Europe, Middle East and Africa divisions to include our Latin America division. |
|
| • | Mr. Ducey received a promotional increase of 10% due to his promotion to Executive Vice President, North America Operations, which expanded the scope of his existing responsibilities over our global service operations planning and support, global software development, product management and marketing to include our North American sales and service organizations, as well as our security division. |
Annual Cash Bonus Payout:
• Although our full-year 2010 non-GAAP EPS of $2.33 exceeded the minimum non-GAAP EPS of $1.05 for funding of Annual Cash Bonus awards, for purposes of payout, the Committee used its discretion to adjust the non-GAAP EPS component downward to $2.15. In particular, the Committee deducted $0.13 attributable to costs associated with our global FCPA review, as well as $0.05 attributable to beneficial tax impact.
• Achievement of key initiatives and individual goals for 2010 is discussed in more detail below under “Analysis of 2010 Elements of Executive Paycharges);” however, consistent with our 2010 performance, payout for such initiatives and goals was contingent upon achievement of certain free cash flow and SB200 cost savings targets, among others.
2008-2010 Performance Shares Payout:
| | |
| • | Our TSR was 44.3%, which ranked us 12th against our peer group (discussed below) comprised of 28 companies, and 105th against the S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index, producing awards equal to 158% of target. |
Restricted Stock Units, or RSUs:
• Beginning in 2010, the Committee changed the mix of long-term incentives to provide for the delivery of total potential value in the form of 40% performance shares (at target results), 40% stock options (valued using the Black-Scholes method), and 20% RSUs.
Miscellaneous:
| | |
| • | As a result of our ability to generate significant free cash flow during 2009 and 2010, the Committee reinstated our 401(k) match, as discussed in more detail below under “Personal Benefits.” |

The mix of base salary, annual cash bonuses and LTI noted in the above table, which we refer to throughout this Compensation Discussion and Analysis as total pay, generally makes up our executive pay program. In order to confirm the continued appropriateness of each element of our executive pay program, the Committee annually reviews the pay practices of similarly sized peer companies in related industries.
2010 Total Pay Mix
The Committee varies the mix of total pay to ensure our compensation program remains competitive with our peers, and to recognize each executive’s operating responsibilities and ability to impact our short- and long-term results. Based on the fair value of equity awards granted to our CEO and our other Named Executive Officers in 2010, below is the mix of total pay for our CEO and our other Named Executive Officers as of December 31, 2010
21
(excluding pension and non-qualified deferred compensation earnings, income on dividend equivalents, and perquisites and other benefits):
CEO:
20
Other NEOs:
As evidenced by the above charts, the Committee provides a good mix of base salary, annual cash bonuses and LTI for the Names Executive Officers to balance the various objectives of the program, with a significant percentage of the Named Executive Officers’ total pay being performance-based including, most notably, 70% of our CEO’s total pay being performance-based.
2012Executive PayCompensation Summary
In setting pay for our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, we target total pay at the median of a peer group of companies, which we refer to as the peer group. However, actual pay can vary significantly fromyear-to-year and among individuals within a given year based on corporate and individual performance and experience.
The Committee reviews peer group practices annually to determine total pay levels and periodically to identify new pay elements or emerging trends. In addition to peer group data,approved the Committee reviews data obtained from nationally recognizedfollowing compensation surveys for a broad range of companies of comparable size and similar revenue. This additional information helps confirm peer group results and represents the broader marketitems in which we compete for senior executives. In 2010, we used data from both sources to benchmark all elements of total pay. Each year the Committee also reviews the companies2012, each discussed further in the peer group to ensure the group adequately represents our peers in the market.“2012 Pay Elements” below:

During 2010, the following 44 companies, which remain unchanged from 2009, made up the peer group and served as the primary basis for benchmarking our pay levels and practices for our executives, including our Named Executive Officers:
| | | | | | Value mix: 40% stock options, 40% performance shares, and 20% RSUs. |
• The 2010 to 2012 performance share grant payout was 30% of target, based on the performance/payout scale approved by the Committee at the start of the performance period. Our total TSR for the three-year period 2010 to 2012 was 20.4%, which ranked us at the 23rd percentile against our custom peer group discussed further in “Peer Group:Companies and Competitive Market Data” below), and at the 27th percentile against the S&P Midcap 400 index. | | | Products/Markets:

Corporate Governance Standards
Pay Setting Process
Committee DeliberationWe endeavor to maintain good executive compensation governance standards, including the oversight of our executive compensation programs and Rationale
policies. The Committee evaluates many factorsfollowing guidelines and policies were in determining increases or decreases in each pay element and in total pay for each executive, including:
effect during 2012:
| |
| ▪ | Stock ownership guidelines: Five times salary for CEO; three times salary for CEO direct reports; and one and a half times salary for performance share plan participants. In addition, we have retention requirements for pre- and post-guideline attainment (as described below under “Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines”). The Committee annually tracks progress towards achievement of these ownership guidelines. |
| |
| ▪ | • Clawback policies: In addition to our stand-alone Clawback Policy regarding recovery of excessive performance-based incentive compensation in certain circumstances (as described below under “Other Compensation Policies”), our equity grants also include general provisions that allow us to cancel or “claw back” incentive compensation pursuant to any shares received pursuant to awards or stock option exercises. |
| Peer |
| ▪ | Insider trading policy: The company’s employees, officers and directors are prohibited from trading in Diebold securities, and in derivative securities, when he or she is aware of material, non-public information about the company (as described below under “Other Compensation Policies”). |
| |
| ▪ | Blackout periods: In addition to the insider trading policy, executives are prohibited from trading our stock within the period that begins two weeks prior to the end of each quarter through the first business day following our next quarterly earnings release (as described below under “Other Compensation Policies”). |
| |
| ▪ | Tally sheets: The Committee annually reviews tally sheets in order to analyze our Named Executive Officers’ total compensation opportunities based on historical grant practices, and to review the potential compensation under various termination scenarios. |
| |
| ▪ | Incentive payment thresholds and maximums: As discussed below in “2012 Pay Elements,” both the annual cash bonus plan and the performance share program have threshold performance requirements which must be achieved in order to receive a payment. Maximum payments are capped. Further, performance share plan payments are capped at target in periods of negative TSR, even if an above-target award is earned based on the company’s percentile ranking against the companies in our peer group and other comparable company practices;the S&P Midcap 400 Index. |
| |
|
| ▪ | • | Company performance as measured by non-GAAP EPS, free cash flow, TSRChange-in-control benefits: As discussed below in “Personal Benefits,” these benefits provide for management continuity and stock price appreciation;alignment of executive and shareholder interests in the event of a change-in-control of the company. They are not excessive in that existing coverage for Diebold executives does not provide (a) severance multiples in excess of three times |

salary and target bonus, (b) single trigger cash payments, and/or (c) modified single trigger provisions. Future change-in-control provisions will not include excise tax gross-ups.
| |
| ▪ | Executive perquisites and other benefits: As discussed below in “Personal Benefits,” these perquisites and other benefits are limited and do not include income tax gross-ups. In addition, the company is eliminating the company car program for executives effective March 2013. |

Consideration of 2012 Say-on-Pay Vote
SomeAt the 2012 Annual Meeting of these factors are discussed in more detail below in connection withShareholders, the analysis of individual pay elements.
The amount of total pay achieved or potentially achievable from prior awards does not directly impact annual pay decisions or future pay opportunities. Moreover,advisory vote to approve the Committee does not have a specific formula for allocating total pay between short- and long-term pay elements or between cash and non-cash pay elements. However, the Committee does vary the mix of these elements based on competitive practices and management level to recognize each individual’s operating responsibilities and ability to impact our short- and long-term results. The mix of these elements is reviewed by the Committee at least annually.
As part of its deliberation process, the Committee annually reviews a “snapshot” of total pay for each executive for purposes of general benchmarking and comparative analysis with our peer group. In this way, the Committee can validate target pay positions with respect to total pay elements relative to our peer group.
The Committee analyzes data from our peer group, to determine pay positions for each element of compensation. The summary table above under “Executive Pay Program Overview” discloses how individual pay elements are targeted against the peer group under the column “Target Pay Position Relative to Peer Group.”
Historically, the Committee targeted base salary below median levels, with cash bonuses and long-term incentives slightly higher than market medians. Beginning in 2010, the Committee continued to focus on providing competitive total compensation opportunities, but began shifting to a philosophy of targeting market medians for each pay element to enhance the balance of our executive pay program the retention of our critical executives, and the attraction of high quality executive talent to the company.
Consistent with its revised pay philosophy, the Committee approved pay elements in 2009, 2010 and 2011 for our Named Executive Officers at targetreceived strong support (94% of votes on that were,issue). Management and the Committee considered this strong support of the current pay structure by our shareholders in their compensation program discussions throughout 2012. Based on average,these results, the following percentages relativeCommittee will continue to apply the same principles in determining future executive compensation policies and programs. The Committee is dedicated to continuous improvement to the executive pay program, consistent with its overall compensation strategy, and will continue to review and evaluate market trends and best practices in designing and implementing elements to our compensation program.
2012 Total Compensation Mix
In support of our pay-for-performance objective, the Committee believes targeted total compensation should be more heavily weighted by variable compensation (short- and long-term incentives) than fixed compensation (base salary), and that long-term incentives should be more heavily weighted than short-term incentives, consistent with competitive market practice and each executive’s roles and responsibilities. The following charts summarize our total compensation mix and our short- versus long-term incentives orientation:
|
| | | | |
| Named Executive Officer | | Fixed Compensation (Salary) | | Variable Compensation (“At Risk” Incentives) |
Thomas W. Swidarski | | 16% | | 84% |
| Other Named Executive Officers (average) | | 32% | | 68% |
|
| | | | |
| Named Executive Officer | | Annual Cash Bonus | | Long-Term Incentives |
Thomas W. Swidarski | | 19% | | 81% |
| Other Named Executive Officers (average) | | 31% | | 69% |
Long-Term Incentive Valuations
The Committee used the compensation consultant’s long-term incentive valuation methodology to calculate an economic value for stock options, performance shares, and RSUs. The total compensation opportunity to each Named Executive Officer includes long-term incentive value, salary and target bonus. This long-term incentive methodology is different than the FASB ASC Topic 718 valuation used for the “Summary Compensation Table” and “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table because this methodology measures opportunity to the executive, rather than the anticipated cost to the company.
Regarding these long-term incentives, ASC Topic 718 generates a value higher than the target value on grant date. The Committee believes that long-term incentive awards should not be valued higher than the target value on the grant date because there is a probability of forfeiture if performance criteria are not achieved. In addition, the Committee believes measuring TSR against the companies in our peer group:group creates a strong performance measurement system by focusing on value creation to our shareholders.
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | Percentage of Peer Group Median |
| | | | 2009 | | | 2010 | | | 2011 |

Compensation Decision Process
Role of the Compensation Committee
The Committee is responsible to our Board for oversight of our executive compensation programs. The Committee consists of independent directors and is responsible for the review and approval of all aspects of our program. Among its duties, the Committee is responsible for:
Reviewing and assessing competitive market data from the independent compensation consultant, discussed below.
Reviewing and approving incentive goals, objectives and compensation recommendations for the Named Executive Officers.
Evaluating the competitiveness of each executive’s total compensation package.
Approving any changes to the total compensation package for the Named Executive Officers including, but not limited to, salary, annual incentives, long-term incentive award opportunities and payouts, and retention programs.
Following review and discussion, the Committee submits recommendations to the Board for approval. The Committee is supported in its work by the Chief Human Resources Officer and staff, and an independent compensation consultant, discussed in “Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant” below. For additional information regarding the Committee’s duties and responsibilities, see “Compensation Committee Risk Oversight” and “Compensation Committee” above.
Timing
Pay recommendations for our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, are typically made by the Committee at its first scheduled meeting of the year, normally held in February. This meeting is usually five to 15 days afternormally held around the same time we report our fourth quarter and year-end financial results for the preceding fiscal year and provide our financial guidance for the upcoming year. ItThis meeting is also typically more than two months before we report our first quarter earnings.
Decisions with respect to prior year performance, performance for other relevant periods and any resulting award payouts, as well as equity awards, base salary increases and target performance levels for the current year and beyond, are also made at this meeting. Generally, any increases in base salary approved at this meeting are made effective retroactively to the beginning of the current year. Further, any equity awards approvedrecommended by the Committee at this meeting are approvedthen reviewed by the Board and, if approved, are dated as of the date of the Board meeting held the following day. As such, the Committee does not time the grants of options or any other equity incentives to the release of material non-public information.
The exceptions to this timing are awards to executives who are promoted or hired from outside the company during the year. These executives may receive salary increases or equity awards effective or dated, as applicable, as of the date of their promotion or hire.

Based on this review, we are not aware of any conflict of interest that has been raised by the Committee for 2010 to develop external pay data primarily consisting of comparative analyses of our peer group and companies of comparable size that are outside of our peer group, as well as Fortune 500 companies. The Committee’s consultant also provides advice on current compensation trends such as long-term incentives, executive retirement,change-in-control severance benefits, deferred compensation programs and governance practices in connection with executive pay.work performed by Aon Hewitt.
At the Committee’s discretion, the consultant is often asked to attend Committee meetings dealing with executive pay matters. On such occasions, the consultant generally participates in the Committee’s deliberations on executive pay decisions, answers questions regarding compensation trends or the market data it developed, and may provide additional advice or input as requested by the Committee.
Role of Management
Our Chief Human Resources Officer serves as management’s primary contact with the Committee and attends and actively participates in all Committee meetings.

Direct competitors for business and management talent.
Companies covered by the investment analysts that includes his achievement against the prior year’s goals establishedtrack Diebold.
Companies including Diebold in their compensation peer group.

In December 2012, Aon Hewitt conducted a total compensation study to assist with 2013 compensation decisions. The annual revenues for the coming year, which goals are based onthree largest companies increased beyond the annual strategic, operationaldesired revenue range. The Committee approved the replacement of those three companies with three companies meeting the criteria above, as follows:
Removed from the old peer group: Dover Corp., Mastercard Inc., and financial plansRockwell Automation
Added to the new peer group: DST Systems, Harris Corp., and Lexmark International
Aon Hewitt then benchmarks total compensation opportunities for the company that are approved by the full Board prior to any CEO pay discussions.
Internal Equity
We provide similar pay ranges for positions with similar characteristics and scopeeach of responsibility, including Named Executive Officer positions. Any differences in compensation among theour Named Executive Officers are based on each individual’s experience, operating responsibilities, abilityusing peer company proxy data, as well as published and private compensation survey data. Size-adjusted market values for comparable executive compensation were developed using regression analysis. This statistical technique accounts for revenue size differences within the peer group and develops a market value for comparable executive compensation consistent with our revenue relationship to impact short- and long-term results, demonstrated performance and future potential, as determined bythe peer group companies. The size-adjusted 50th percentile for total compensation is a key reference point for the Committee. Further, in order to attract and retain quality executive officers, the Committee believes it is necessary and proper to provide total pay for each executive position that is commensurate with market practice (determined specifically by reference to the practices ofOn average, our peer group).

2012 Pay Elements
Analysis of 2010 Elements of Executive Pay
Base Salaries
We pay baseBase salaries are designed to recognize and reward the skills, competencies,skill, competency, experience and individual performance an executive brings to his or her position. As a result, changesChanges in salary result primarily from changes incompetitive market data, individual and company performance, internal equity considerations, promotions, and the executive’s responsibilitiesspecific responsibilities. The Committee reviews salaries annually.
For 2012, the Committee reviewed competitive market data and an assessment of annual performance. The company’s financialindividual performance assessments for the year is also taken into consideration.
At the start of each year, each executive, including the Named Executive Officers provides personal performance goals that relate to his or her applicable position, business unit or department, and responsibilities. Performance byapproved the following base annual salary changes:
|
| | | | | | |
| Named Executive Officer | | 2011 Salary | | 2012 Salary | | Increase % |
| Thomas W. Swidarski | | $840,000 | | $840,000 | | —% |
| Bradley C. Richardson | | $499,500 | | $520,032 | | 4.1% |

| Leslie A. Pierce | | $244,064 | | $250,166 | | 2.5% |
Salary increases for each of the Named Executive Officers, (excludingrespectively, were based on a review of competitive market data and individual performance. Mr. Natoli’s increase was based on his promotion to Executive Vice President, Chief Innovation Officer, and a thorough review of competitive market data for his new position at the CEO) against these goals is subjectively assessed annually by the CEO and the Chief Human Resources Officer, who then make salary recommendations to the Committee. Our full Board assesses the CEO’s performance.Company. Mr. Ducey’s increase was based on competitive market data for his position.
The Committee relied upon several factors when deciding on increases in salary for 2010:
| | |
| • | The executive’s performance against his or her personal goals, which supports the Committee’s goal of rewarding performance; |
|
| • | Comparisons with base salaries for executives in similar roles in peer group companies, which supports the Committee’s goal of providing competitive pay; |
|
| • | The Committee’s philosophy regarding salaries, which targets salaries at median of our peer group; and |
|
| • | The Committee’s assessment of our overall performance versus goals, and our operating plan and forecasts. |
In assessing the results of an executive’s individual performance, the Committee relies on its judgment and not a specific formula. This evaluation ensures that we have the financial capability to provide the increases and that they are reasonable in light of corporate performance.
Salary increases may take the form of merit increases, market adjustments or promotional increases. Merit increases are typically annual and are intended to reflect individual experience level and performance from the prior year andyear-over-year, to keep our executives competitive against our peer group, and to provide an adjustment for inflation. Market adjustments are provided from time to time to adjust an executive’s salary to a level that is

competitive with our peer group. Finally, promotional increases may be given to compensate for promotions or for a significant increase in an executive’s responsibilities or areas of influence.
Annual Cash Bonuses

The Cash Bonus Plan allowscriteria: For 2012, the Committee to choose levels of, growth in, or relative peer company performance in any one or more ofapproved the following categories of performance measures: EPS; return on invested capital; return on total capital; return on assets; return on equity; TSR; net income, revenue, cash flow or operating profit;and/or productivity improvement.
The Committee has historically usedmetrics for the Named Executive Officers: Non-GAAP corporate EPS, key initiatives, and individual performance, each of which are detailed in the following table, along with applicable weighting. We utilize this mix of measurement criteria because non-GAAP corporate EPS as thea performance criteria for annual cash bonuses viewing EPS asis an important bottom-line financial result that investors use to evaluate the value of our common shares. As a result, consistent increases in EPS over time should lead to improvements in shareholders’ investment.
Funding of Cash Bonuses. To pay cash bonuses, we fund a bonus pool based on (1) achievement of a minimum EPS, and (2) the maximum bonus available to each executive. This approach helps us preserve the tax deductibility of all bonuses paid under the Cash Bonus Plan and provides the Committee the greatest flexibility to assess and reward annual performance. While this minimum EPS is used to fund potential cash bonuses, the actual payout of cash bonuses is based on achievement of certain weighted corporate goals,In addition, key initiatives focus on other important financial performance measures critical to the overall success of the company, while individual performance criteria focus on financial and individual goals.
Weighting. The Committee expectsnon-financial initiatives specific to each Named Executive Officer to contribute to our overall success as a memberOfficer’s role in the company.
Non-GAAP EPS performance goals and results: The non-GAAP EPS goals and payout opportunities for the non-GAAP EPS portion of the executive team, as well as focusing on individual division or business unit goals and objectives, all of which are tied to our short- and long-term strategic plans. Accordingly,plan approved by the Committee believes that there should be a strong emphasis on corporate performance, as well as individual goals, and as such, sets varying weights on the individual Named Executive Officers’ performance measures in order to reflect the individual executive’s relative influence on such goals and objectives. For 2010 cash bonuses, the Committee approved the following weighting of performance measures for our Named Executive Officers:2012 were:
|
| | |
| Threshold | • $2.20 | For Mr. Swidarski and Mr. Richardson, 60% based on EPS, 20% based on key initiatives, and 20% based on individual goals;40% of target earned |
| Target | $2.50 | 100% of target earned |
| Maximum | • $2.80 | For Mr. Ducey, 50% based on EPS, 30% based on key initiatives, and 20% based on individual goals; and200% of target earned |
|
| Actual | • $2.07 | For Mr. Chen and Mr. Mayes, 40% based onNo EPS 40% based on key initiatives, and 20% based on individual goals.payout |
Prior to 2009, payouts under the plan were based entirely on the achievement of EPS targets, with the potential for the Committee to use negative discretion based on the level of achievement of individual performance measures. The Committee believes the current practice allows for more alignment between cash bonuses and performance of
27
each individual within the division, business unit or functional group on which he or she has the most impact, while still balancing the need for the achievement of acceptable corporate goals.
Specifically, the weighting of performance measures for Mr. Swidarski and Mr. Richardson emphasizes consolidated company financial performance and shareholder value creation in the form of EPS, reflective of their focusand/or influence on overall corporate results. For Mr. Chen, Mr. Mayes and Mr. Ducey, the weighting drives key strategicand/or operational results in their specific areas of responsibility, and in turn, contributes to overall corporate results.
Company Goals. For 2010, the Committee again selected non-GAAP EPS as the appropriate corporate goal. The EPS level fixed by the Committee for purposes of target payout of cash bonuses was intended to approximate our annual non-GAAP EPS guidance to investors. The performance levels for payout of cash bonuses at threshold and maximum are then generally set as a percentage of the target EPS level. The threshold for payout is set at a level that is intended to be reasonably capable of achievement. Conversely, the EPS level for maximum payout is set at a level that should require a fairly significant effort to achieve.
The following levels of EPS were intended to pay out at the following weighted results, with an interpolation of actual results falling in between threshold and maximum:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| • | | Below Threshold | | à | | non-GAAP EPS | | < | | $ | 1.60 | | | à | | No weighted EPS payout |
| • | | Threshold | | à | | non-GAAP EPS | | = | | $ | 1.60 | | | à | | 40% of weighted EPS payout |
| • | | Target | | à | | non-GAAP EPS | | = | | $ | 2.00 | | | à | | 100% of weighted EPS payout |
| • | | Maximum | | à | | non-GAAP EPS | | = | | $ | 2.30 | | | à | | 200% of weighted EPS payout |
Our 2010 non-GAAP EPS target of $2.00 approximated the mid-range of our 2010 non-GAAP EPS guidance to investors of $1.90 to $2.15. The 2010 EPS target was set below the 2009 EPS target level due to continued economic uncertainty, particularly in the financial sector, which continued to impact our customers and therefore our EPS outlook. For 2010, the Committee set threshold and maximum EPS levels more in line with historic practices, while still recognizing the continued difficulty of achieving maximum results. Accordingly, the Committee set threshold and maximum EPS for 2010 at 80% and 115% of target, respectively.
As noted above, in establishing theseWhen evaluating non-GAAP EPS goals and evaluating results, the Committee generally excludes certain restructuring, non-recurringnon-routine income and expense, and other extraordinaryimpairment items consistent with our guidance to investors. Further, under the plan, the Committee is authorized to consider negative discretion with respect to bonuses.
We reported 2010The company did not achieve 2012 threshold non-GAAP EPS, of $2.33, which would have resulted in a maximum payoutand accordingly, no bonuses were earned for the Company Goals performance measure; however, as noted above, the Committee used its discretion to adjust the non-GAAP EPS component downward to $2.15, for a payout midway between targetportion of the Annual Cash Bonus Plan.

Threshold and maximum performance levels are then set to have slightly decreased and increased difficulty, respectively, as compared to target levels. |
Individual Goals. In addition to non-GAAP EPSperformance goals and the key initiatives outlined above, each executive has individualizedresults: Individual goals that are directly tied to the individual’s operating unit, functional area or department, and may consist of a mixturecombination of quantitative measures (for example, revenue growth, cost reduction, cash conversion, quality improvement and inventory goals) and qualitative measures (for example, operational and organizational improvements, product/service development and customer loyalty).measures. The CEO develops and proposes the individual goals for his management team, which are approved by the Committee at the beginning of each fiscal year, and the Board sets the CEO’s individual performance objectives.
To the extent possible, individual quantitative Individual goals are approved at threshold, target and maximum achievement levels, similar tolevels. The individual achievement goals for each Named Executive Officer are indicated in the company goalstable and key initiatives. Further, similar to our company goals and key initiatives, quantitative individual goals may exclude certain non-recurring or extraordinary items. However, apart fromfootnote below, as well as the overall weightingBoard’s assessment of individual goals relative to company goals and key initiatives, the Committee has no set criteria, formula or weighting system2012 achievement for determining overall achievement of individual goals.

In addition to the negative discretionperformance goals. However, the Committee used in connection with our non-GAAP EPS performance measure, the Committee also usedits negative discretion to reduce theeliminate cash bonus payouts to Mr. Swidarski and Mr. Chen.for these three executives.

Ms. Pierce stepped down from the company in April 2012, and therefore, was not eligible for a cash bonus.
Long-Term Incentives
The Committee also felt thatbelieves in a reduction was appropriate for Mr. Chen duebalanced approach to his oversight responsibilities in EMEA and AP, where we previously reported that we have identified certain transactions that potentially implicatelong-term incentive compensation. As such, our practice is to grant
total long-term incentive value according to the FCPA.following weights:
Restricted stock units (RSUs): 20%
Long-Term IncentivesStock options: 40%
Performance shares: 40%
Overview. The 1991 Plan provides us with flexibility in the types of long-term incentives we can award to our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, and includes stock options, performance shares and RSUs. The LTI mix approved by the Committee is designed to provide for the delivery of total potential value in the form of approximately 40% performance shares (at target results), 40% stock options (valued using the Black-Scholes method), and 20% RSUs. In this manner, the Committee strikes a balance betweenof awards tied only to stock price appreciation and those based on the full value of our common shares, as well as otherawards tied solely to stock price appreciation, and awards tied to performance factors.and stock price growth. The Committee believes this mix aligns our LTI paylong-term incentive compensation with market practice, mitigates risk and provides an LTI mix with a balance betweenenhances our shareholder alignment.
To determine annual award sizes of each type of long-term companyincentive, the Committee considers individual performance, shareholder alignment, value creationpotential future contributions to our business, internal equity, and executive retention.
The LTI grantedcompetitive market values, in 2010 supported our pay philosophy:
| | |
| • | Stock options align our executives’ interests with those of shareholders because options only produce rewards for executives if our stock price increases after options are granted. |
|
| • | Performance shares reward our executives for achieving sustained financial results as well as for increasing our stock price. As a result, they tie rewards to performance and provide an additional means to own stock. |
|
| • | Grants of RSUs help in attracting and retaining key executives. |
addition to management’s recommendations. The Committee also takes into accountapproves long-term incentive grants at the competitiveness of our executives’ target cash pay (salary plus target bonus)regular February Committee meeting, and competitive total pay levels in awarding LTIs. This dollar difference representsactual grants are generally made on the target value of LTI that the Committee delivers in the form of options, performance shares and RSUs.
Stock Options. Stock option grant recommendations are developed by management and then reviewed and approved by the Committee, and are based on an executive’s salary grade or level, organizational level, reporting relationships and job responsibilities in order to maintain internal equity in the grants to participants. Actual grants also vary based on an assessment of several factors, including the market value of our common shares, our financial performance, shares available under the 1991 Plan, an individual’s target total compensation and his or her performance against individual performance goals. LTI delivered in the form of stock options is valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation method, the same method we use to determine its accounting fair value.
Our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, received option grants in 2010 with the following characteristics:
| | |
| • | Non-qualified stock options, which provide us with a tax deduction at the time of exercise to the degree executives incur taxable income. |
|
| • | Exercise price equal to the closing price of our common shares on the date of grant so that executives do not receive options that are “in the money.” |
|
| • | Vest ratably over a four-year period to support executive retention. |
|
| • | Expire ten years after the date of grant to reward for long-term stock price appreciation. |
Grants of stock options approved by the Committee to the Named Executive Officers during 2010 were as follows:

Performance Shares. Performance shares are earned over a three-year performance period, determined asday of the dateFebruary Board Meeting.
RSUs: RSUs provide a base level of retention value in our fourth quarterexecutive compensation program, and year-end earnings release immediately following the performance period, with actual awards varying from target based on the achievement of financial objectives established by the Committee at the start of the period. No dividends are paid on performance shares until earned.
The award of performance shares is consistent with the Committee’s objective to take a balanced approach to LTI by rewarding sustained financial performance, as well as stock price appreciation and executive retention. The expected value of a performance share at the time of grant (based on our stock price) is used to determine the number of target performance shares awarded. The Committee then reviews and approves the performance share grant recommendations developed by management, which are based on the same principles used to develop stock option grant recommendations.
Our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, received target performance share awards for the 2010 to 2012 period with the following characteristics:
| | |
| • | Our TSR for the period relative to our peer group and the S&P MidCap 400 Index determines the actual number of performance shares earned. Results in each area are weighted equally. This approach underscores the importance of providing shareholder returns equal to or greater than those companies similar to us as well as to the broader market of companies we compete with for investment. Moreover, it also balances the focus of stock options, the value of which is tied to the absolute growth in our stock price. |
|
| • | The actual number of shares earned will range from 0% to 200% of an individual’s target award: |
| | |
| ○ | If our relative TSR is below both groups’ 20th percentile, no performance shares will be earned. As a result, the Committee requires executives to provide shareholders a minimally acceptable (threshold) performance relative to our peers before any rewards can be earned. |
|
| ○ | Our executives can earn the maximum number of shares if our TSR equals or exceeds (1) the 60th percentile of one group and 100th percentile in the other, (2) the 70th percentile in one group and 90th percentile in the other, or (3) the 80th percentile of both groups. In this manner, our executives receive the highest level of rewards under the plan only when our performance is superior to that of other similar companies. |
|
| ○ | A matrix is used to determine awards for results between threshold and maximum. |
|
| ○ | An executive’s individual performance is not a factor in determining actual performance shares awarded. |
Grants of performance shares, at target, approved by the Committee to the Named Executive Officers during 2010 were as follows:
| | | |
Named Executive Officer: | | | Target Performance Shares Granted: |
Swidarski
| | | 42,500 |
Richardson
| | | 6,500 |
Chen
| | | 5,500 |
Mayes
| | | 5,500 |
Ducey
| | | 5,500 |
| | | |
Goals for the 2008 to 2010 performance period were identical to those established for the 2010 to 2012 period. However, unlike our 2010 grants of performance shares, the calculation of payouts for the 2008 to 2010 performance period was determined by our actual rank, as opposed to our percentile ranking, relative to our peer group and the S&P MidCap 400 Index. The Committee changed to a percentile ranking methodology beginning in 2009 for ease of administration. In the past, when companies have dropped out of our peer group or the S&P MidCap 400 Index during a performance period, it has not always been clear how best to adjust for such changes when using actual rankings. In certain situations, such as with a bankruptcy, it might be appropriate to assume poor performance and, therefore, deem the companies to have performed at the bottom of the rankings. However, in other situations, it may be less clear, such as in the case of a merger or acquisition. Changing to percentile rankings removes the ambiguity.
As discussed above, our actual TSR for the 2008 to 2010 performance period of 44.3% was ranked 12th out of an original peer group comprised of 28 companies, and 105th in the S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index, which produced a payout equal to 158% of each executive’s target award. Our executives received shares equal to this percent of target,
32
as no discretion was used to increase or decrease the results based on our relative TSR. Accordingly, the performance shares earned by the Named Executive Officers for the 2008 to 2010 performance period were as follows (Mr. Richardson joined the company in November 2009, and therefore did not receive a performance share grant for the 2008 to 2010 performance period):
| | | | | | | | | | | |

Richardson | | | | 0 | | | | | 0 | |
Chen | | | | 6,000 | | | | | 9,480 | |

The expected value of an RSU at the time of grant (based on our stock price) is used to determine the number of RSUs awarded. Dividend equivalents are paid on RSU awards.
Stock options: Stock options provide value based solely on stock price appreciation. Grants of stock options have a ten-year term and vest ratably over a four-year period. The Committee then reviews and approves the RSU grant recommendations developed by management, which areexercise price is based on the same principles usedclosing price of our common stock on the grant date and is valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation method.
Performance shares: The ultimate measure of our success is shareholder return, measured by stock price performance and dividends. Performance shares are earned over a three-year performance period based solely on our TSR ranking relative to develop stock optionour peer group and performance share grant recommendations.
From timethe S&P Midcap 400 Index. This approach underscores the importance of providing shareholder returns equal to time, the Committee also provides special one-time grants of RSUsor greater than those companies similar to new executives, to current executives that take on a new role or greatly expanded responsibilities, or to ensure retention for a specified period of time. RSUs typically vest three years after the date of grant and may include performance features for early vesting. During 2010, the Committee approved special one-time grants of 5,000 RSUs each to Mr. Richardson, Mr. Chen, Mr. Mayes and Mr. Ducey.
Grants of RSUs approved by the Committeeus as well as to the Named Executive Officersbroader market of companies we compete with for investment. Moreover, it also balances the focus of stock options, the value of which is tied to the absolute growth in our stock price. The number of shares earned at the completion of the performance cycle may range from 0% to 200% of target, based on our relative ranking against these two groups of companies. No dividends are paid until shares are earned.

2011 Pay Actions and Grants to Named Executive Officers
Prior to filing this proxy statement for our Annual Meeting, the Committee made its executive pay decisions for 2011. The actions taken in 2011 below reflect the Committee’s continuing commitment to implementpay-for-performance principles, while also recognizing the need to retain and reward our key executives.
Summary of 2011 Executive Pay Actions
Base Salary:
2012 performance period:
| |
• ▪ | Annual merit increases for all executives averaged 2.8%,The performance period began on January 1, 2010 and forended on the Named Executive Officers (excluding Mr. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey), 1.8%. |
|
• | Mr. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey received market adjustments of 5% and 7.5%, respectively, to bring their base salaries closer to mediandate of our peer group.year-end earnings release in 2013 following the completion of the 2012 fiscal year. |
Annual Cash Bonus Targets:
• For 2011 cash bonuses payable in 2012, the Committee again set a minimum non-GAAP EPS to fund awards under our cash bonus plan, with payout again contingent upon a company goal based upon non-GAAP EPS, certain key initiatives, and individual goals.
2011-2013 Performance Shares:
| |
• ▪ | The minimum performance criteria forrequirement was the 202011-2013th performance period remain unchanged from the2008-2010 performance period: our relative TSR against our current peer group and the S&P MidCap 400 Index, equally weighted. |
|
• | The Committee will be making several revisions to the2011-2013 performance share awards, including having the performance begin on January 1, 2011 and continuing through December 31, 2013, where previously the performance period began and ended on our earnings release dates in the relevant years, and also raising the threshold relative TSR level for payout to the 35th percentile ofagainst both our peer group and the S&P MidCapMidcap 400 Index from(25% payout is earned at minimum). The maximum performance requirements were: (a) the 20th percentile.60th percentile of one group and highest ranking in the other, (b) the 70th percentile in one group and 90th percentile in the other, or (c) the 80th percentile of both groups (200% payout is earned at maximum). |
33
TheFor grants starting in 2011, the Committee also approved the following 2011 annual cash bonus (at target)changes:
The end of the performance period is December 31st of the third year, and LTI awardsthe stock prices used to determine the starting and ending points are based on the trailing 20-day average stock price immediately preceding both the January 1st start date and the December 31st ending date.
The minimum performance requirement was raised to 35th percentile of both groups. The maximum performance requirement was solidified as the 80th percentile of both groups.
Our TSR for the 2010 to 2012 performance period was 20.4%, which ranked in the 23rd percentile versus our peer group of 44 companies from 2010, and the 27th percentile versus the S&P Midcap 400 Index. The corresponding payout from the Committee-approved performance/payout scale was 30% of each Named Executive Officer’s target grant. The Committee did not exercise negative discretion to adjust the final award.

Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines
The Committee believes that stock ownership guidelines reinforce executive and shareholder alignment. Our executive stock ownership guidelines are:
CEO: Five times salary
CEO direct reports: Three times salary
Performance share participants: One and a half times salary
Executives must retain at least 50% of the net shares of stock received from any equity-based awards, after deductions for taxes and exercise costs, until the guidelines are met. After the guidelines are met, executives must hold at least 50% of the net shares of stock received from any equity-based awards, after such deductions, for at least one year.
In determining an executive’s stock holdings, we count the shares beneficially owned by the executive, including the after-tax value of the following stock equivalents: RSUs, shares deferred pursuant to our deferred compensation program (discussed below in more detail in“Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation”), and shares owned through the executive’s 401(k) savings plan account. Outstanding options and unearned performance shares do not count toward the executives’ stock ownership guidelines.
The Committee reviews management’s stock holdings annually to monitor progress toward the stock ownership guidelines. However, we do not impose any penalties on executives who fail to meet the stock ownership guidelines. This is because the guidelines mandate some level of stock ownership whenever an executive would realize any value from an equity-based award. Moreover, we do not allow executives to hedge the economic risk associated with stock ownership. The stock holdings of the Named Executive Officers are set forth above under “Security Ownership of Directors and Management.”
2013 Compensation Decisions
In an ongoing effort of continuous improvement, our proxy statementcommitment to becoming a “top tier” performer, support of our 2012 annual meeting.longer-term business strategy, and enhancement our pay-for-performance alignment, the Committee approved the following program modifications for 2013 to provide greater focus on critical strategic objectives:
|
| | |
| Plan | | Comments |
| Annual Cash Bonus | | Non-GAAP EPS will continue to be an important measurement for some executives. However, performance measurements for most executives will focus on FCF. |
| Stock Options | | Modified vesting from four years to three years, ratable, for alignment with our performance shares and RSUs. |
| Long-Term Incentives | | Increased the performance share weighting to 50% of our total long-term incentive opportunity. Stock options were lowered to 30% weighting. RSUs remained at 20% weighting. |
| Company Car Program | | Eliminated effective March 2013, except for specific positions that need a car for business purposes. The Named Executive Officers will no longer participate in the program. |
Personal Benefits
Our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, are also eligible to participate in the following additional pay elements as part of their total pay package.programs:
Benefits
Benefits
We provide our executives with medical, dental, long-term disability, and life insurance and severance benefits under the same programs used to provide benefits to all U.S. basedU.S.-based associates. Our executives may buy additional life insurance coverage at their own expense, but not long-term disability.expense. The maximum life insurance coverage that may be boughtpurchased by an executive is $1.5 million. Our executives’ personal benefits are not tied to individual or company performance and changes to these benefits reflect the changes to the benefits of all U.S. basedU.S.-based associates.
Perquisites
Perquisites
We provide our executives with perquisites that are also not tied to individual or company performance.limited perquisites. The Committee believes that these benefits are set at a reasonable level, are highly valued by recipients, have limited cost to the company, are part of a competitive reward programsystem, and help in
attracting and retaining high quality executives.top management talent. Perquisites received by executives include the following, the values of which differ based on an executive’s reporting level:
| | |
| • | Company car or car allowance, including a repair and maintenance allowance, and insurance allowance. This perquisite is being phased out except for a limited number of grandfathered positions, which include each of the Named Executive Officers. |
|
|
| • | Country club memberships, which are anticipated to be used for business as well as personal purposes. As of December 2008, this perquisite was discontinued for all of our executives,Country club memberships, which are anticipated to be used for business as well as personal purposes. As of December 2008, this perquisite was discontinued for all of our Named Executive Officers, except our CEO, as it was felt that he, more so than our other executives, would benefit from the business development and networking opportunities provided by his club memberships. |
|
|
| • | Reimbursement for financial planning services to assist executives in managing the rewards earned under our programs. |
|
|
| • | A complete annual physical exam (assessment of overall health, screening and risk reviews for chronic diseases, exercise and dietary analysis, and other specialty consultations), which helps protect in small measure the investment we make in these key individuals. |
Reimbursement for financial planning services.
A complete annual physical exam (assessment of overall health, screening and risk reviews for chronic diseases, exercise and dietary analysis, and other specialty consultations), which helps protect in small measure the investment we make in these key individuals.
Company car program, or car allowance, which is being eliminated for all executives, including the Named Executive Officers, effective March 2013.
The Committee periodically reviews our practices in this area and makes any necessary adjustments based on competitive practices, consistency with our total pay philosophymarket trends and objectives, andthe cost to provide these personal benefits. As a result of the Committee’s review, beginning in 2008, we no longer provide taxgross-ups in connection with any executive perquisites. The trend in our peer group and in the market is to discontinue the practice of providing taxgross-ups in connection with executive perquisites and, further, providing taxgross-ups on perquisites is not consistent with our global cost reduction efforts.
34
Deferred Compensation
Our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, may elect to defer receipt of annual cash bonuses and performance shares pursuant to our Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan. Current investment choices under the plan for cash deferrals (cash bonuses and dividends on deferred performance shares) mirror those in our 401(k) plan, except it does not include our common shares. Our deferred compensation plan does not provide participants with additional pay, but merely provides a tax deferred investment vehicle. Moreover, we do not guarantee any specific rate of return and do not contribute to the return that may be earned.
Retirement
Retirement
We also maintain qualified and non-qualified retirement programs. Our executives, including the Named Executive Officers, participate in our qualified defined benefit (pension) and defined contribution (401(k)) plans on the same terms as all U.S. basedU.S.-based associates. UnderIn January 2012, in order to better align with market practice, we enhanced our 401(k) plan,match as follows: for executivesemployees hired prior to July 1, 2003, we historically matched 60% of the first 3% of pay that was contributed by the executive to the plan, and 40% of the next 3% of pay contributed. For executives hired on or after such date, we historically matched 100% of the first 3% of pay that was contributed by the executive to the plan, and 60% of the next 3% of pay contributed. However, as a result of the global economic downturn beginning in late 2008, in early 2009 we discontinued our 401(k) match for all associates hired prior to July 1, 2003, and reduced our 401(k) match for all associates hired after July 1, 2003 to 60% of the first 3% of pay contributed by the associate. Beginning in January 2011, we have enhanced our 401(k) match as follows: for executives hired prior to July 1, 2003, we will match 25%30% of the first 6% of pay contributed, and for executivesemployees hired on or after such date, we will match 55%60% of the first 6% of pay contributed.
We also have fivefour non-qualified supplemental retirement plans: the Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan I, or SERP I,(1) the Pension Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or Pension SERP, (2) the Pension Restoration Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or Pension Restoration SERP, (3) the 401(k) Restoration Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or 401(k) Restoration SERP, and (4) the 401(k) Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or 401(k) SERP. None of the Named Executive Officers participate in the SERP I, and the SERP I is now closed to new participants.
These plans are described in detail below under “20102012 Pension and Retirement Benefits.”
Participation in the 401(k) Restoration SERP is based on the annual IRS compensation limits. Participation in the other plans is limited to executive officers in positions that help develop, implement and modify our long-term strategic plan, as nominated by the CEO and approved by the Committee.
Mr. Messrs. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey participate in the Pension SERP, Pension Restoration SERP, and the 401(k) Restoration SERP; however, anybased on design, benefits accrued under the Restoration SERPs offset benefits accrued underand the Pension SERP to avoid duplication of benefits provided. Mr.are not duplicative. Messrs. Richardson and Mr. Mayes participate in the 401(k) Restoration SERP and the 401(k) SERP. Ms. Pierce participates in the Pension Restoration SERP and the 401(k) Restoration SERP. Mr. Natoli participates in the 401(k) Restoration SERP.
Change-in-Control Protection
Change-in-Control Benefits
We maintainchange-in-control agreements for our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers, that provide our executives with the potential for continued employment for three years following achange-in-control. As a result, these agreements help retain these executives and provide for management continuity in the event of an actual or threatenedchange-in-control of the company. They also help ensure that our executives’ interests remain aligned with shareholders’ interests during a time when their continued employment may be in jeopardy. Finally, they provide some level of income continuity should an executive’s employment be terminated without cause.cause in connection with a change-in-control.
The agreements provide:
Severance of three times salary for the CEO, and two times salary for the other Named Executive Officers.
| | |
| • | Severance of three times salary for the CEO and two times salary for the other Named Executive Officers and other executives. |
|
|
| • | One year of continued participation in employee retirement income, health and welfare benefit plans, including all executive perquisites. |
|
|
| • | One year of additional service for determining the executives’ non-qualified retirement benefits. |
One year of continued participation in our employee retirement income, health and welfare benefit plans, including perquisites.
One year of additional service for determining the executives’ non-qualified retirement benefits.
In addition, the agreements provide a taxgross-up for any excise tax imposed under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, covering severance amounts payable under any other agreement, plan or arrangement. The Committee feels that this taxgross-up is reasonable in light of the salary-only pay definition (bonus is not included in the pay definition) and to ensure that our executives are kept “whole” in the event of achange-in-control so that the individual receives the same after-tax amount as he or she would have received without the imposition of the excise tax.
35
Change-in-control benefits are only paid upon the occurrence of two events. First, there must be a“change-in-control” “change-in-control” of the company, as defined in the agreements. Second, an executive must be terminated without cause or he or she must terminate his or her own employment for good cause, as described in the agreements. In this manner, benefits are only paid to executives if they are adversely affected by achange-in-control, consistent with the agreements’ objectives.
The terms and conditions of these agreements are identical in all material respects, except for the multiple of base salary noted above. The Committee periodically reviews our policy with respect to thesechange-in-control agreements, and engages its independent compensation consultant to provide a competitive analysis of our practices. The Committee has determined that this type of agreement is still a valued component of overall compensation for purposes of attracting and retaining quality executive officers. Based upon these reviews, the Committee believes itschange-in-control benefits, providing for payments of twoofficers and, three times base salary, as applicable, are below median levels for executives in similar positions in our peer group and at other comparable companies and, therefore, remained consistent with the Committee’s philosophy relative to these types of awards. As such, the Committee approved the continued award of these agreements to new executives.
Aon Hewitt’s market review of our change-in-control benefits in late 2011 reflected that defining pay to include only base salary was below market. Therefore, the Committee determined, beginning in 2012, any new change-in-control agreements provided to executives will provide severance benefits defining pay to include base salary and target bonus. However, any new change-in-control agreements will no longer provide a tax gross-up feature for any excise tax imposed under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Committee does not takeaccount for the value of these agreements into consideration when making any other compensation decisions.
Severance Protection
Expatriate Benefits
As a result of an analysis in 2011 by Aon Hewitt, the Committee approved our Senior Leadership Severance Policy, or Severance Policy, in order to provide greater consistency for executives that are involuntarily terminated other than for cause or upon certain constructive terminations, in each case separate from a change-in-control. These benefits also provide a consistent approach to ensuring reinforcement of an executive’s confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation obligations. The Severance Policy provides for the following:
Executives sent on expatriate assignments receive payments to cover housing, automobileSeverance of two times salary and other expenses under our standard expatriate policies. Withtarget bonus for the exception of Mr. Chen, who was asked to relocate to China when he was hired by us, none ofCEO, and one and a half times salary and target bonus for the other Named Executive Officers received expatriate benefits(except for Ms. Pierce, as discussed in 2010. Mr. Chen’s expatriate benefits are described in more detail in footnote 5 to the “2010 Summary Compensation Table” below.
Employment and Separation Agreements” below), as well as a pro-rated bonus payment in the year of termination, based on actual performance.
Employment Agreements
We typically enter into employment agreements only with theTwo years of continued participation in our employee health and welfare benefit plans for our CEO, and also the President when that title is held by someone other than the CEO. Mr. Swidarski’s employment agreement is described below. Other than Mr. Swidarski, we have not entered into any employment agreements with anyone and one-half years of continued participation for the other Named Executive Officers.Officers (excluding perquisites and any qualified or non-qualified pension or 401(k) plans).

Prior to his departure, Mr. Swidarski was the only Named Executive Officer with an employment agreement, is deemed necessary, the Committee usually models the agreement after prior employment agreements, and makes adjustmentsa copy of which was filed as necessary given, among other factors, a competitive analysis of the marketExhibit 10.28 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the position, our needs and the relative experience levelyear ended December 31, 2008.

In April 2006, we entered into anthis employment agreement with Mr. Swidarski, with a term of two years and with automatic one-year renewals thereafter unless either party notifiesnotified the other at least six months before the scheduled expiration date that the term iswas not to renew. Pursuant to his agreement, Mr. Swidarski was to receive a base salary of $550,000 for the first year, with a cash bonus opportunity up to 200% of base salary, as well as other compensation.

A copy of Mr. Swidarski’s amended and restated agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.28 to our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Separation Agreements
We typically enterHistorically, we entered into individually-negotiated separation agreements with our executive officers upon their separation from service in order to reinforce that individual’s confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation obligations. AsAny such separation agreements were typically heavily negotiated, but ultimately consistent with

employment agreements, prior separation agreements. Accordingly, in 2011 the Committee usually modelsapproved the agreement after prior separation agreements, and makes appropriate adjustments, taking into considerationSeverance Policy discussed above under “Personal Benefits” in order to better align with market practice, provide greater consistency in the past service of the individual, the reason for the separation and any other factors the Committee deems relevant. These agreements are only prepared at the timeevent of an executive’s separationinvoluntary termination, and to minimize the cost of such severance negotiations.
Leslie A. Pierce: On August 6, 2012, we entered into a Separation Agreement and Release with Leslie A. Pierce, our former Vice President and Corporate Controller, who stepped down from the company effective as of April 18, 2012. Pursuant to the separation agreement, Ms. Pierce received a severance payment of $873,471 and, in addition, $26,459 in accrued vacation and $216,529 for attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the separation agreement. Such payments are not treated as pensionable earnings. Ms. Pierce also received certain equity and other benefits consistent with our Severance Policy, and as such, do not affectdetailed below in the Committee’s decisions on other compensation elements.

Stock Ownership Guidelines” and “
We established stock ownership guidelines for our executives in 1996. Ownership guidelines reinforce the primary goalsPost-Termination Payments Table.” In consideration of our LTI:these payments and benefits, Ms. Pierce agreed to build stock ownership among our executivesa general release of existing and ensure their long-term economic interests are aligned with those of other shareholders.
In 2007, we modified our ownership requirements, adopting fixed share ownership guidelines instead of setting guidelines as a percentage of salary, in order to:
| | |
| • | Provide shareholders and executives a clearer view on the level of ownership required; |
|
|
| • | Increase the financial flexibility our executives have in meeting those requirements; and |
|
|
| • | Maintain executives’ commitment to share ownership once ownership targets are achieved. |
The new levels of ownership set forth in these guidelines are approximately the same as our prior ownership guidelines, which were based on the executives’ salariespotential claims against us and our stock price on October 5, 2006, and are as follows:
| | |
| • | Chief Executive Officer: 130,000 shares; |
|
|
| • | President and Chief Operating Officer: 100,000 shares; |
|
|
| • | Executive and Senior Vice Presidents: 50,000 shares; |
|
|
| • | Vice Presidents and Group Vice Presidents: 25,000 shares; and |
|
|
| • | Other Senior Management: 15,000 shares. |
In addition, until guidelines are met, our executives must hold at least 80% of the net shares of stock received from any equity-based awards, after deductions for taxes and exercise costs. Once the guidelines are met, our executives are required to hold at least 40% of the net shares of stock received from any equity-based awards, after such deductions.
In determining an executive’s stock holdings, we count the shares directly owned by the executive, including unvested restricted shares and shares deferred pursuant to our deferred compensation program,certain related parties, as well as a non-competition agreement, non-solicitation agreement and confidentiality obligations consistent with our Severance Policy.
Charles E. Ducey, Jr.: As noted in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 28, 2013, Mr. Ducey stepped down from the following stock equivalents: deferred shares, RSUscompany effective as of January 23, 2013, and his departure is considered by the company as an involuntary termination without cause. Further, as noted in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 28, 2013, the company and Mr. Ducey entered into a Separation Agreement and Release on February 22, 2013. In that agreement, the company agreed that Mr. Ducey is entitled to receive the severance benefits under our Severance Policy, discussed above in “Personal Benefits,” and other benefits under applicable equity agreements. In consideration of these payments and benefits, Mr. Ducey agreed to a general release of existing and potential after-tax shares owned through the executive’s 401(k) savings plan account. Outstanding optionsclaims against us and unearned performance shares do not count toward the executives’ stock ownership guidelines.certain related parties, as well as a non-competition agreement, non-solicitation agreement and confidentiality obligations consistent with our Severance Policy.
Other Compensation Policies
The stock holdings of the Named Executive Officers are set forth above under “Security Ownership of Directors and Management.”
The Committee reviews management’s stock holdings annually to monitor progress toward the stock ownership guidelines. However, we do not impose any penalties on executives who fail to meet the stock ownership guidelines. This is because the guidelines mandate some level of stock ownership whenever an executive would realize any value from an equity-based award. Moreover, we do not allow executives to hedge the economic risk associated with stock ownership.
Clawback Policy
In addition to any other rights or remedies legally available to us, all of our equity plans include provisions that allow us to cancel awards or “claw back” any shares received pursuant to awards or the exercise of stock options for certain specified conduct that is deemed detrimental to the company. To the extent that an executive has already received value for such awards, these provisions also allow us to seek reimbursement of such value directly from the executive or through the garnishment of salary or cash bonus.
Examples of such detrimental conduct include:
Engaging, directly or indirectly, in any activity in competition with us, in any product, service or business activity for which the executive had any direct responsibility or direct involvement during the two previous years.
Soliciting one of our employees to terminate his or her employment with us.
| | |
| • | Engaging, directly or indirectly, in any activity in competition with us, in any product, service or business activity for which the executive had any direct responsibility or direct involvement during the two previous years; |
Unauthorized disclosure of confidential, proprietary or trade secret information obtained during employment with us.

In addition, asthe Committee has implemented a result of the passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reformseparate and Consumer Protection Act in July 2010, the NYSE will be amending its listing standardsindependent Clawback Policy, effective August 2, 2012, which provides an additional avenue to require listed companies to implement a mandatory clawback policy for the recoupment from current or former executives of any financialrecover excessive performance-based incentive compensation paid during a three-year look-back period afterin the event of willful act of misconduct resulting in an obligation on the company to prepare a company restates financial resultsaccounting restatement due to a material error. The effective date of this mandatory clawback policynoncompliance with any reporting requirement has been delayed in order forunder the SEC to better articulate the scopeU.S. federal securities laws.
Insider Trading Policy
Under our Insider Trading Policy, each employee, officer and demandsdirector of the clawback policy. Accordingly,company is prohibited from buying or selling our securities when he or she is aware of material, non-public information about the Committee has delayed the implementationcompany, or information about other public companies which he or she learns as our employee or director. These individuals are also prohibited from providing such information to others. In addition, this policy prohibits employees, officers and directors from engaging in short sales of a mandatory policy until more detailed rules have been issued by the SEC.Diebold stock, and from buying or selling any derivative securities related to Diebold stock.
Company-Imposed Black-Out Periods
Any time one of our executivesAs noted above, if an executive is in possession of material non-public information, he or she is prohibited from trading in our stock. Apart from these trading restrictions, we also impose routine black-out periods that prohibit executives, including the Named Executive Officers, from trading during the period that begins two weeks prior to the end of each quarter and extends through the first business day following our next scheduled quarterly earnings release. These self-imposed black-out periods are an example of good corporate governance and help to protect both us and the individual from allegations of insider trading violations.
However, our black-out policy was not intended to penalize employees for this type of positive corporate behavior, and in the past the Committee has approved a cash distribution to employees, including Named Executive Officers, who were barred from exercising stock options prior to their expiration due to extended company-imposed black-out periods. In 2010, however, none of the Named Executive Officers received anyNo such cash distribution as a result of expiring stock options.exceptions were made during 2012.
Limitations on Deductibility of Compensation
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally limits the tax deductibility of executive compensation paid by a public company to its CEO and certain other highly compensated executive officerspublicly-held corporations to $1 million inper certain executive officers, excluding the yearCFO. The $1 million limitation does not apply to compensation that qualifies as performance-based. The company considers the compensation becomes taxabletax and accounting impact of all compensation. The Committee intends to maximize the executive. There is an exception to the limit on deductibility foruse of performance-based compensation that meets certain requirements.
In orderto mitigate the deduction limits. Consequently, our annual and long-term incentive plans have been designed to qualify as performance-based compensation, our compensation plans must meet certaincompensation. Solely for purposes of meeting the tax deduction requirements including shareholder approval. We have taken steps intended to ensure we are not adversely affected by Section 162(m). To that end, our annual bonuses, grants of performance shares and awards of stock options are designed to meet the section’s deductibility requirements. Nevertheless, the Committee also believes it must maintain flexibility to take actions it deems to be in our best interests, but may not qualify for tax deductibility under Section 162(m).
Base salaries, no bonus is paid, nor will 2012 RSU grants vest, unless 50% of budgeted non-GAAP EPS is achieved. In some situations, however, in order to attract, retain and grantsreward critical executive talent to maximize shareholder value, the loss of restricted stocka tax deduction may be necessary and RSUs do not qualify as performance-based compensation and would not be excluded from the limitation on deductibility. As a result, we have a policy pursuant to whichappropriate in certain executives have entered into agreements to automatically defer amounts affected by the $1 million limitation until the time when that limitation no longer applies.circumstances.

1 | | These columns present information about the potential payout under our Annual Cash Bonus Plan for fiscal year 2010.2012. The actual amount paid in February 20112013 is reflected above in the “20102012 Summary Compensation Table” under the column “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation.” For a more detailed description of the related performance measures for our Annual Cash Bonus Plan, see above under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” |
| |
|
2 | | These columns present information about performance shares awarded during 20102012 pursuant to the 1991 Plan. The performance measures will be calculated over the three-year period beginning on February 3, 2010 through the day of our year-end earnings release in January 2013.1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2014. No amount is payable unless the threshold performance is exceeded. The maximum award amount, which can be up to 200% of the target amount, will be earned only if we achieve maximum performance. For a more detailed description of the performance shares and the related performance measures, see above under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” |

|
5 | | TheFor performance shares, the fair value of performance shares and RSUs$44.25 per share as of the grant date was calculated using the closing market price of the shares on the grant date of $27.88,a Monte Carlo simulation model, and reflectssuch values reflect the total amount that we would expect to expense in our financial statements over the awards’ three-year performance period, based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of these performance shares were as follows: (a) an expected performance period of three years; (b) a risk-free interest rate of 0.4%, which is the interest rate for a zero-coupon U.S. government bond, with a maturity of three years; (c) volatility of 32.9%, calculated using the daily ending stock price for the equivalent period to the expected term prior to grant date; and (d) a dividend yield of 3.27% as of the grant date. For RSUs, the fair value is calculated using the closing market price of the shares on the February 8, 2012 grant date of $34.89, and $33.46 for Mr. Natoli’s August 13, 2012 grant, and such values reflect the total amount that we would expect to expense in our financial statements over the awards’ three-year vesting period. For stock options, the fair value iswas calculated using the Black-Scholes value on the grant date of $9.59,$10.58, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of these stock options can be found under Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.2012.

2 | Ms. Pierce was paid a lump sum equal to the value of her Qualified Retirement Plan Benefit in December 2012, as part of a one-time window for eligible terminated vested participants to elect a lump sum, as discussed in “Qualified Retirement Plan” below. |
Mr.Messrs. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey, and Ms. Pierce while an employee during 2012, participate in the Diebold, Incorporated Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees, or Qualified Retirement Plan, which provides funded, tax-qualified benefits under the Internal Revenue Code to all salaried and non-union hourly U.S. basedU.S.-based employees who were hired before July 1, 2003. This plan provides benefits that are limited by Internal Revenue Code requirements applicable to all tax-qualified pension plans. We also maintain three defined benefit Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans, or SERPs, which provide unfunded, non-qualified benefits to select executives. The purpose of the SERPs is to provide additional benefits above those provided under the Qualified Retirement Plan. Mr.Messrs. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey also participate in the Pension Restoration SERP and the Pension SERP. Ms. Pierce participates in the Pension Restoration SERP.
Qualified Retirement Plan
The benefit provided under the Qualified Retirement Plan is payable as a life annuity beginning at normal retirement age (age 65). The benefit is determined based on the following formula:
0.8% of final average compensation up to the Covered Compensation level; plus
| | |
| • | 0.8% of final average compensation up to the Covered Compensation level, plus |
|
| • | 1.25% of final average compensation in excess of the Covered Compensation level, |
|
| • | which sum is multiplied by years of service (subject to a maximum of 30 years). |
1.25% of final average compensation in excess of the Covered Compensation level;
which sum is multiplied by years of service (subject to a maximum of 30 years).
In addition, a benefit equal to $50.40 times the number of years of service (subject to a maximum of 30 years) is added to the amount determined above.
Final average compensation is an average of the five highest consecutive full calendar years of salary and bonus out of the last ten full calendar years, with each year’s compensation held to a maximum of the IRS compensation limit for that year ($245,000 250,000in 2010)2012). The participant’s individual “Covered Compensation” is as defined under the Internal Revenue Code. The benefit is payable for the lifetime of the participant, with alternative forms of payment available to the participant with an actuarial reduction.
Participants may retire early if they are at least age 50 and the sum of their age plus service is at least 70, or at any age with 30 years of service. Benefits may begin upon retirement on an actuarially reduced basis. Participants with at least 15 years of service who become disabled while employed are eligible for an immediate unreduced benefit. Participants terminating with at least five years of service are entitled to a deferred vested benefit at age 65, or may commence the benefit on an actuarially reduced basis, whenif they are at least age 50 and the sum of their age plus service is at least 70.
The company amended the Qualified Retirement Plan during 2012 to allow terminated vested participants a one-time option to receive their pension benefits as a lump sum. Mr. Pierce was the only Named Executive Officer eligible for this option. She elected to receive a lump sum of her Qualified Retirement Plan benefit, which was distributed to her in December, 2012.
Mr. Swidarski has additional annual benefits payable from the Qualified Retirement Plan in the amount of $4,668, as a result of a transfer of a portion of his Pension SERP benefits. This amount is payable at the same time and inas the same form as thosePension SERP described below under the Pension SERP.as a 100% joint and survivor annuity benefit.
Pension Restoration SERP
Benefits under the Pension Restoration SERP are determined using the same formula as stated above for the Qualified Retirement Plan except the IRS compensation limit is ignored. Net benefits payable from the Pension Restoration SERP at age 65 equal the difference between the benefit determined using total pensionable pay, ignoring qualified plan compensation limits, and the benefit payable from the Qualified Retirement Plan. All other provisions of the Pension Restoration SERP are identical to the Qualified Retirement Plan. Mr.Plan with the exception of the actuarial reduction factors for retirement before age 65. Messrs. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey, and Ms. Pierce, are the only Named Executive Officers who arewere participants in the Pension Restoration SERP.SERP in 2012.
Pension SERP
The Pension SERP provides a supplemental monthly retirement benefit in an amount such that a participant’s total retirement benefit from the Qualified Retirement Plan, the Pension Restoration SERP, the annuity equivalent of the projected employer-provided balance in the 401(k) Restoration SERP (assuming a 3% employer match and a fixed rate of return of 8%) and the Pension SERP, plus one-half of the participant’s anticipated Social Security benefit payable at age 65, equals 50% (prorated(pro-rated for less than 25 years of service) of the participant’s final average compensation received from us during the highest five consecutive full calendar years of the last ten full calendar years of employment. Compensation is defined for this purpose as salary plus bonus accrued for each such calendar year. The Pension SERP benefits are payable at age 65 as a straight life annuity. Joint and survivor options are available on an actuarially equivalent basis. Benefits are available to participants retiring or terminating employment with at least 10 years of service, and are payable at the later of (1) attaining both the age of 50 and 70 points (determined by age plus years of service), or (2) separation from
43
service (on a reduced basis if payments begin before age 65). Participants who become disabled while employed and have at least 15 years of service are eligible for an immediate benefit.
Accrued benefits under the Pension SERP are fully vested in the event of a change in controlchange-in-control of the company. Mr.Messrs. Swidarski and Mr. Ducey are the only Named Executive Officers who arewere participants in the Pension SERP.
SERP in 2012. Mr. Swidarski receives enhanced benefits such that he accrues the full 50% target ratably over his entire service at age 60.
Present Value of Accumulated Benefits
The “Present Value of Accumulated Benefits” is the single-sum value as of December 31, 2010,2012, of the annual pension benefit that was earned through that date payable under a plan beginning at the Named Executive Officer’s normal retirement age. The normal retirement age is defined as age 65 for the Qualified Retirement Plan, Pension Restoration SERP and Pension SERP. For Mr. Swidarski, a portion of the Qualified Retirement Plan benefit is payable at the same time and in the same form of payment as benefits in the Pension SERP.SERP (as a 100% joint and survivor benefit). We used certain assumptions to determine the single-sum value of the annual benefit that is payable beginning at normal retirement age. The key assumptions are as follows:
An interest rate of 4.21%, the FASB ASC 715 discount rate as of December 31, 2012;
| | |
| • | An interest rate of 5.83%, the FASB ASC 715 discount rate as of December 31, 2010; |
|
| • | The RP-2000 Combined Healthy Mortality Tables for males and females projected with mortality improvement to December 31, 2010 using Scale AA; |
|
| • | A probability of 100% that benefits are paid as annuities; and |
|
| • | No probability of termination, retirement, death, or disability before normal retirement age. |
The RP-2000 Combined Healthy Mortality Tables for males and females projected with mortality improvement to December 31, 2012 using Scale AA;
A probability of 100% that benefits are paid as annuities; and
No probability of termination, retirement, death, or disability before normal retirement age.
Extra Credited Service
Mr. Swidarski has been granted the ability to accrue, for benefit calculation purposes only, 1.124 years of service for each year of service until the full 50% target benefit in the Pension SERP is accrued at age 60. We reserve the discretion to provide such grants of extra service on acase-by-case basis. Factors that might warrant such a grant would include, but not be limited by, the following: the recruitment of an executive who is foregoing benefits under a prior employer’s SERP or other non-qualified deferred compensation plans, or the provision for an executive who would otherwise not qualify for a full accrual at the SERP’s normal retirement age of 65 because his or her years of service are less than the required 25 years of service.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plans
Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan
No. 2
Pursuant to our 1992 Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan, certain executives, including the Named Executive Officers, were able to defer cash bonuses received under our Annual Cash Bonus Plan and performance share awards earned under the 1991 Plan. Effective December 31, 2004, as a result of the passage by Congress of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, we elected to freeze the 1992 Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan and closed the plan to future deferrals. Effective January 1, 2005, the Board approved the Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan No. 2, which wasis substantially similar to the 1992 Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan in all material respects, but was designed to be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
Under the Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan No. 2, an executive may defer all or a portion of his or her Annual Cash Bonusannual cash bonus or performance share earnout. Deferral elections for cash bonuses must be made prior to the end of the year preceding the year in which such bonuses would be earned (and payable in the following year). Deferral elections for performance shares must be made at least six months prior to the end of the three-year performance period specified in the grant. None ofMr. Richardson is the only Named Executive Officers currently hasOfficer who deferred any incentive compensation deferredfor 2012 under the Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan No. 2.
Deferrals of performance shares are treated as a line-item in the executive’s deferred account with us; however, the earnings on the performance shares (dividends and interest) are invested in the same manner as deferrals of cash compensation. The Vanguard Group administers our cash deferrals. As such, cash deferrals are transferred to Vanguard on a quarterly basis, and the executive may invest such cash deferrals in any funds available under our 401(k) plan (except that the Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund is not available in our 401(k) plan). The table

Executives deferring under the Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan No. 2 select their period of deferral and method of payment at the time of making their deferral elections. Executives may elect to defer their payments until a specified date or until the date they cease to be an associate of the company. Further, the executives may elect to receive their distribution either as a lump sum or in approximately equal quarterly installments, not to exceed 40 installments.
401(k) Restoration SERP
The 401(k) Restoration SERP is designed to replace lost retirement benefits due solely to IRS compensation limits. Benefits under this plan are determined exactly as in our 401(k) Plan except that compensation limits are ignored. Named Executive Officers are permitted to elect to defer compensation above the annual IRS limit and we provide a matching contribution at the same rate as under the 401(k) Plan. Vanguard administers the 401(k) Restoration SERP. Both the salary deferrals and our matching contributions are transferred to Vanguard and the executive may invest in any funds available under our Deferred Incentive Compensation Plan.Plan No. 2 (except the Vanguard Prime Money Market fund, as noted above).
401(k) SERP
The 401(k) SERP is designed to provide supplemental retirement benefits to executives hired after July 1, 2003, because those executives are not eligible to participate in the Qualified Retirement Plan and Pension SERP. Each year the executive is provided a contribution based upon a points formula (age plus service) as follows:
| | | | | |
Points
| | |
| Points | | Contribution Credit | |
| Under 50 | | | | 5% | |
| 50-59 | | | | 10% | |
| 60-69 | | | | 12.5% | |
| 70-79 | | | | 15% | |
| 80 and over | | | | 20% | |
| | | | | |
Vanguard administers the 401(k) SERP. Our contributions are transferred to Vanguard and the executive may invest the contributions in any investment funds available under our 401(k) Restoration SERP. The 401(k) SERP includes the Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund with a 20102012 annual rate of return of 12.89%)15.27%.
POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
The amount of compensation payable to each Named Executive Officer upon voluntary or involuntary termination (with and without cause), retirement, death, disability or in the event of achange-in-control (with and without termination) is described qualitatively in the following narrative and is shown quantitatively in the table below. The amounts shown assume that such termination orchange-in-control was effective as of December 31, 2010,2012, and include amounts earned through such time and are estimates of the amounts that would be paid out to the executives
46
upon his or her termination orchange-in-control. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of each Named Executive Officer’s separation.separation, and accordingly, amounts shown for Ms. Pierce reflect those actually paid as a result of her stepping down in April 2012.
Payments Made Upon Termination
Voluntary or Involuntary With Cause
Whether a Named Executive Officer’s employment terminates voluntarily or terminates involuntarily with cause, he or she is only entitled to base salary earned through the date of termination, along with any deferred compensation earnings payable upon separation from service and any benefits that have accrued under our Qualified Retirement Plan, and any SERP or 401(k) plan (except that no employer-paid SERP benefits are payable in the event of involuntary termination with cause). The Qualified Retirement Plan benefit, under both termination scenarios, and the SERP benefit, if termination is voluntary, is determined as described in “20102012 Pension Benefits” above. If termination is voluntary, the values shown reflect the present value of the normal retirement benefit (at age 65) for the Qualified Retirement Plan, Pension SERP and Pension Restoration SERP. Note that the two nonqualified defined benefit plans specify the timing and form of payment (based on known participant elections). For Ms. Pierce, we have included the value of the Pension Restoration SERP payable January 1, 2014 when she is eligible to receive her benefit under her election form of payment of a 100% joint and survivor annuity due to her stepping down on April 18, 2012. Ms. Pierce was paid a lump sum equal to the value of her Qualified Retirement Plan benefit in December 2012, as part of a one-time window for eligible terminated vested participants to elect a lump sum. No additional benefits are payable from the Qualified Retirement Plan to Ms. Pierce.
If termination is involuntary with cause, only the portion of the 401(k) Restoration Plan benefit derived from employee contributions is payable to the Named Executive Officer. The entire 401(k) SERP balance is forfeited if termination is involuntary with cause. The 401(k) SERP and 401(k) Restoration SERP balances are not payable until the Named Executive Officer attains age 55.
Pursuant to the Severance Policy discussed in more detail above under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” a voluntary termination by a Named Executive Officer will be deemed a constructive termination thereby entitling him or her to the payments and benefits discussed below under “Involuntary Without Cause” upon the occurrence of any of the following events without the Named Executive Officer’s express written consent:
A material reduction in the amount of the executive’s then current base salary or target bonus;
We require the executive to change his or her principal location of work to any location which is in excess of 50 miles from his or her previous location of work;
Our failure to obtain in writing the obligation to perform or be bound by the terms of the Severance Policy by any successor company or any purchaser of all or substantially all of our assets; or
Any other action or inaction by us that constitutes a material breach of the terms and conditions of the Severance Policy.
Involuntary Without Cause
If however, a Named Executive Officer is involuntarily terminated without cause, or a voluntary termination is deemed a constructive termination, pursuant to the Severance Policy, in addition to the foregoing, he or she is entitled to the following:following (subject to a general release of claims and acknowledgment of the executive’s confidentiality and non-competition obligations):
A lump sum payment equal to one and one-half times base salary in effect on the date of termination and target bonus opportunity under our Annual Cash Bonus Plan in the year of termination (for Mr. Swidarski, two times base salary and target bonus);
| | |
| • | Separation payments and continued participation in our employee health care plans pursuant to our Health Care Plan and Separation Benefits Plan applicable to allU.S.-based employees, with the length of such benefits and payments ranging from one to six months, depending upon the executive’s years of service (and for Mr. Chen, such separation payments as are required by applicable law); |
|
| • | Lapse of the restrictions on outstanding restricted shares; and |
|
| • | A Qualified Retirement Plan benefit determined using the plan provisions as described in “2010 Pension Benefits” above. |
A pro-rata award under our Annual Cash Bonus Plan, based upon the time employed in the year of termination, to the extent such awards are otherwise earned, payable when such awards are generally paid to others;
Continued participation in all of our employee health and welfare benefit plans for a period of one and one-half years (for Mr. Swidarski, two years), or the date he or she receives equivalent coverage from a subsequent employer, excluding perquisites and any qualified or non-qualified pension or 401(k) plans;
All outstanding unvested options immediately vest and remain exercisable for a period of three months following the date of termination (pursuant to Mr. Swidarski’s employment agreement, his options remain exercisable for 2 years following separation of employment);
All outstanding RSUs vest pro-rata based upon the time employed in the year of termination relative to the deferral period of the RSUs;
Pro-rata performance share earnouts, based upon the time employed in the year of termination relative to the performance period, to the extent such awards are earned, payable when such awards are generally paid to others;
A Qualified Retirement Plan benefit using the plan provisions as described in “2012 Pension Benefits” above; and
Professional outplacement services for up to two years.
The Pension SERP, Pension Restoration SERP, 401(k) SERP and 401(k) Restoration SERP do not provide any additional benefits upon an involuntary termination. The Named Executive Officer is only entitled to a SERP benefit if he or she otherwise qualifies for a normal, early or deferred vested SERP benefit at termination. For Messrs. Swidarski and Ducey, the values shown reflect the present value of the normal retirement benefit (at age 65) for the Qualified Retirement Plan, Pension SERP and Pension Restoration SERP. Note that the two nonqualified defined benefit plans specify the timing and form of payment (based on known participant elections). However, due to the forms of payment being actuarially equivalent and the absence of early retirement subsidies, this calculation approach is reasonable.
For Ms. Pierce, as a result of her stepping down from the Company effective as of April 18, 2012, we have included the value of the Pension Restoration SERP payable January 1, 2014 when she is eligible to receive her benefit under her elected form of payment of a 100% joint and survivor annuity. Ms. Pierce was paid a lump sum equal to the value of her Qualified Retirement Plan benefit in December 2012, as part of a one-time window for eligible terminated vested participants to elect a lump sum. No additional benefits are payable from the Qualified Retirement Plan to Ms. Pierce.
For all Named Executive Officers, we have included the value of their vested nonqualified defined contribution balances, footnoting that these amounts are not payable until the Named Executive Officer attains age 55. For information related to the departures of Messrs. Swidarski and Ducey in early 2013, see “Employment and Separation Agreements” above.
Mr. Swidarski
Pursuant to Mr. Swidarski’s employment agreement, in the event of an involuntary termination without cause, in addition to the benefits identified above, he is entitled to the following:
| | |
| • | A lump sum payment equal to 24 months’ base salary, as in effect on the date of termination; |
|
| • | A pro-rata award under our Cash Bonus Plan, based upon the time employed in the year of termination, to the extent such awards are otherwise earned, payable when such awards are generally paid to others; |
|
| • | A lump sum payment equal to twice the target bonus level for the year in which termination occurs under our Cash Bonus Plan; |
|
| • | All outstanding unvested options immediately vest; |
|
| • | Pro-rata performance share earnouts, based upon the time employed in the year of termination relative to the performance period, to the extent such awards are earned, payable when such awards are generally paid to others; and |
|
| • | Continued participation in all of our employee health and welfare benefit plans for a period of 24 months (or the date he receives equivalent coverage from a subsequent employer), excluding perquisites and any qualified or non-qualified pension or 401(k) plans. |
Under his employment agreement, Mr. Swidarski is subject to certain non-competition, non-solicitation and confidentiality obligations for a period of two years following termination of his employment.
Payments Made Upon Retirement
In the event of the retirement of a Named Executive Officer at or after the earliest voluntary retirement age, in addition to the benefits identified above under “Voluntary or Involuntary With Cause” and “Involuntary Without Cause,,” he or she is entitled to the following:
All outstanding unvested options immediately vest if the Named Executive Officer had attained the age of 65 and completed five or more years of continuous employment;
| | |
| • | All outstanding unvested options awarded prior to 2007 immediately vest; |
All outstanding RSUs awarded prior to 2007 immediately vest and become nonforfeitable;
All outstanding RSUs awarded after 2006 immediately vest and become nonforfeitable if the Named Executive Officer had attained the age of 65 and completed five or more years of continuous employment;
All outstanding RSUs awarded after 2006 vest pro-rata based upon the time employed in the year of termination relative to the deferral period of the RSUs, if the sum of the Named Executive Officer’s age and years of continuous employment equals or exceeds 70; and
Pro-rata performance share earnouts, as described above.

| | |
| • | All outstanding unvested options awarded after 2006 immediately vest if the Named Executive Officer had attained the age of 65 and completed five or more years of continuous employment; |
|
| • | All outstanding RSUs awarded prior to 2007 immediately vest and become nonforfeitable; |
|
| • | All outstanding RSUs awarded after 2006 immediately vest and become nonforfeitable if the Named Executive Officer had attained the age of 65 and completed five or more years of continuous employment; |
|
| • | All outstanding RSUs awarded after 2006 vest pro-rata based upon the time employed in the year of termination relative to the deferral period of the RSUs, if the sum of the Named Executive Officer’s age and years of continuous employment equals or exceeds 70; and |
|
| • | Pro-rata performance share earnouts, as described above. |
For the Qualified Retirement Plan, Pension SERP and Pension Restoration SERP, we have included the value of those benefits which are immediately payable if the Named Executive Officer were to retire as of December 31, 2012 and satisfy the retirement eligibility conditions. In 2012, Messrs. Swidarski and Ducey were able to retire under the terms of Diebold’s defined benefit plans. The amounts shown for Messrs. Swidarski and Ducey also include the value of their respective vested nonqualified defined contribution balances. Retirement eligibility is age 55 under the 401(k) SERP and the 401(k) Restoration SERP. For Messrs. Richardson, Mayes and Natoli, and Ms. Pierce, we have only included the value of their respective vested nonqualified defined contribution balances, which such amounts are not payable until the Named Executive Officer attains age 55.
Payments Made Upon Death or Disability
In the event of the death or disability of a Named Executive Officer, the Named Executive Officer or his or her estate or beneficiaries would receive the same equity benefits indicated above under “Payments Made Upon Retirement,” except that all outstanding and unvested options and RSUs, regardless of when awarded, would immediately vest and become nonforfeitable. In addition, the Named Executive Officer or his or her estate or beneficiaries would receive benefits under our disability plan or payments under our group term life insurance plan or any supplemental life insurance plan, as appropriate.
Named Executive Officers who die while actively employed are eligible for surviving spouse benefits from the Qualified Retirement Plan payable at the Named Executive Officer’s normal retirement date (or on an actuarially reduced basis at an early retirement date) if the Named Executive Officer had at least five years of service. The benefit is equal to 50% of the benefit payable if the Named Executive Officer terminated employment on the date of his death, survived to the payment date as elected by his or her spouse, and elected to begin receiving the 50% joint and survivor form of payment and died the next day.payment. Benefits payable to the surviving spouse upon death of the Named Executive Officer from the Pension SERP and the Pension Restoration SERP are payable at the later of the executive’s early retirement date or date of death. For the Pension SERP, the death benefit is equal to the benefit that would have been payable to the Named Executive Officer if he or she terminated employment on the date of death and survived to his or her first payment date. Named Executive Officers must have ten years of service at the time of death for death benefits to be payable under the Pension SERP. For the Pension Restoration SERP, the death benefit is equal to 50% of the benefit, actuarially adjusted for the difference in age between the Named Executive Officer and spouse, that would have been payable to the executive if he or she terminated employment on the date of death and survived to his or her first payment date. Named Executive Officers must have five years of service at the time of death for death benefits to be payable under the Pension Restoration SERP. The 401(k) SERP and 401(k) Restoration SERP pay a death benefit equal to the executive’s plan account if the executive had 10ten years of service and three years of service, respectively.
Disability benefits are payable immediately on an unreduced basis from the Qualified Retirement Plan based on service at the date of disability if the Named Executive Officer had at least 15 years of service and was determined to be totally and permanently disabled. Disability benefits under the Pension SERP, Pension Restoration SERP, 401(k) Restoration SERP, and 401(k) SERP are payable immediately on an unreduced basis for disability after the Named Executive Officer has at least 15 years of service. Disability benefits under the 401(k) Restoration SERP are payable immediately on an unreduced basis.
For the defined benefit plans, we have shown the present value of the death benefits payable to the Named Executive Officer’s spouse in case of the Named Executive Officer’s death as of December 31, 2012. For the Qualified Retirement Plan, Pension SERP and Pension Restoration SERP, values shown reflect the present value of the normal retirement benefit (at age 65).
Under the disability scenario for the defined benefit plans, we have reflected the present value of the immediately payable benefit if the Named Executive Officer is eligible for disability as of the measurement date. In determining the value of the disability benefits, we used the 1985 Pension Disability Mortality Table and the assumptions noted under “Present Value of Accumulated Benefits” above.
For both the death and disability scenarios, for all Named Executive Officers, we have included the value of their vested nonqualified defined contribution balances which are payable immediately.
Mr. Swidarski

For purposes of calculating the retirement benefits payable when achange-in-control occurs with termination, theeach Named Executive Officer actively employed as of December 31, 2012 is entitled to the following:
A Qualified Retirement Plan benefit determined using the plan provisions as described in “2012 Pension and Retirement Benefits” above plus an additional year of service and pay (base plus target bonus) in the benefit determination;
| | |
| • | A Qualified Retirement Plan benefit determined using the plan provisions as described in “2010 Pension Benefits” above and |
|
| • | A SERP benefit based on the formula applicable for normal retirement. |
A Pension SERP benefit based on the formula applicable for normal retirement including an additional 12 months of service and pay (base plus target bonus);
A Pension Restoration SERP benefit based upon the formula applicable for normal retirement including an additional 12 months of service and pay (base plus target bonus);
A Qualified 401(k) Plan benefit determined using the plan provisions as described in “Payments Made Upon Retirement” above plus an additional year of service and pay (base plus target bonus) in the benefit determination based upon the 401(k) Plan formula effective for 2013, however, the value of such benefit is paid from the 401(k) Restoration SERP;

A 401(k) SERP benefit including an additional 12 months of service and pay (base plus target bonus).
For both the Qualified Retirement Plan, the Pension SERP and allthe Pension Restoration SERP, we have reflected the present value of the accrued benefit payable at normal retirement (including the additional year of service and pay as noted above). Under the terms of the defined benefit SERPs, these benefits are determined assuming continuous participationpayable at the later of the executive’s early retirement date or the date of a change-in-control with termination.
For the 401(k) SERP and the 401(k) Restoration SERP, the change-in-control trigger provides for an additional 12 months subsequentthe immediate vesting of all defined contribution balances. These balances are not payable to termination as described above (except that the continued service creditNamed Executive Officer until he has attained at least age 55 under any qualified plan shall be paidthe terms of the nonqualified defined contribution plans. The change-in-control amount set forth in the “Post-Termination Payments Table” below was based on the updated target bonus percentage for by us).
Mr. Mayes of 80% of salary for 2013.
Each of thechange-in-control agreements with the Named Executive Officers is substantially similar. A form of these amended and restated agreements was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Effect of Certain Tax Regulations on Payments
Effect of Excise Tax on Parachute Payments
Under our existing change-in-control agreements as in effect for the Named Executive Officers, if any amount or benefit paid under the agreement, taken together with any amounts or benefits otherwise paid to the executives under any other agreement, are deemed to be “excess parachute payments” subject to excise tax under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, we will reimburse the executive for the excise tax and any additional income, employment and excise taxes incurred on thegross-up payment. Any future change-in-control agreements will not include excise tax gross-ups.
Effect of Section 409A on Timing of Payments
With respect to any severance amounts payable to our executives, any amounts that are not exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code will be subject to the required six-month delay in payment after termination of service, provided that the executive is deemed a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A at the time of termination of service.
