On June 3, 2020, at the Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders adopted and approved the Third Amended and Restated 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Third Amended and Restated Plan” or the “Plan”), which previously had been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and Executive Compensation Committee subject to stockholder approval.
The Third Amended and Restated Plan amends the Second Amended and Restated 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Second Amended and Restated Plan”) primarily as follows:
| 1. | Share Reserve. The Plan increases the share authorization by 5,896,993 shares. |
| 2. | Strengthened Clawback Provision. The Plan provides that all compensation awarded under the Plan and prior incentive plans is subject to recovery or other penalties pursuant to any clawback provision set forth in an applicable award agreement. It further provides that, if the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Committee may terminate any awards granted under the Plan or prior incentive plans and/or require any participant to reimburse the Company the amount of any payment or benefit received with respect to any awards granted under the Plan and prior incentive plans to the extent such awards would not have been earned or accrued after giving effect to the accounting restatement. |
| 3. | Removal/Revision of Provisions Based on Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Because the U.S. tax reform legislation that was enacted in December 2017 repealed the exception to the Section 162(m) deduction limit for performance-based compensation, the Plan removes language that was aimed to enable awards to qualify for that exception. However, because the Company continues to believe that a significant portion of its executive officers’ compensation should be tied to performance, it has retained some of the former Section 162(m)-based provisions but has re-characterized them as “performance award provisions,” which will generally apply to awards (other than time-based restricted stock awards and time-based restricted stock unit awards) granted to executive officers. |
| 4. | Revision of Limits for Equity Awards to Executive Officers. One of the Section 162(m)-based provisions in the Second Amended and Restated Plan imposed numeric limitations on certain equity awards to executive officers during a 12-month period, with some of the limitations applying to awards granted during the period and others applying to awards earned during the period. The Third Amended and Restated Plan synchronizes these limits such that they apply to awards granted during the period. |
| 5. | Prohibition on Payment of Dividends or Dividend Equivalents on Unvested Awards. The prohibition under the Second Amended and Restated Plan on the payment of dividends or dividend equivalents on unvested or unearned performance-based awards has been extended to apply to all awards on which dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid under the Plan. |
| 6. | Eligible Subsidiaries. The Plan clarifies that awards other than incentive stock options may be granted to employees of any entity in which the Company has at least a 50% direct or indirect ownership interest, including entities not established as corporations. |
| 7. | Termination Date. The termination date is extended to the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Third Amended and Restated Plan, which is June 3, 2030. |
The above description of the Third Amended and Restated Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amended and Restated Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this report. A more detailed summary of the Third Amended and Restated Plan can be found in the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 13, 2020.
Item 5.07. | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
