COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION Ms. Laney who served on the Compensation Committee for part of 1995 is a Senior Vice President and the Chief Administrative Officer of the Company. Mr. Mount who is on the Compensation Committee was formerly an Executive Vice President of the Company. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION JOINT REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND INCENTIVE COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The Company believes that executive compensation must align executive officers' interests with those of the Company's stockholders and that such are served by having compensation directly and materially linked to financial and operating performance criteria which, when successfully achieved, will enhance stockholder value. The Company attempts to achieve this objective with an executive compensation package for its senior executives which combines base salary, annual cash incentive compensation, long-term incentive compensation in the form of stock options and restricted stock awards along with various benefit plans, including pension plans, savings plans and medical benefits generally available to the employees of the Company. The executive compensation program is administered through the coordinated efforts of the Compensation Committee and the Incentive Committee of the Board of Directors.The membership of the Incentive Committee is composed of outside directors (i.e. non-employees of the Company) and the Compensation Committee is composed of four outside directors.The Compensation Committee is responsible for the review, approval and recommendation to the Board of Directors of matters concerning base salary and annual cash incentive compensation for key executives of the Company.The recommendations of the Compensation Committee on such matters must be approved by the full Board of Directors.The Incentive Committee administers the Company's stock incentive plans under which it reviews and approves grants of stock options and restricted stock awards. Both the Compensation and Incentive Committees may use their discretion to set executive compensation where, in their collective judgment, external, internal or individual circumstances warrant. Following is a discussion of the components of the executive officer compensation program. In determining base salary levels for the Company's executive officers, the Compensation Committee takes into account the magnitude of responsibility of the position, individual experience and performance and specific issues particular to the Company.In general, base salaries are set at levels believed by this Compensation Committee to be sufficient to attract and retain qualified executives when considered with the other components of the Company's compensation structure. The Compensation Committee believes that a significant portion of total cash compensation should be linked to annual performance criteria.Consequently, the purpose of annual incentive compensation for senior executives and key managers is to provide a direct financial incentive in the form of an annual cash bonus to these executives to achieve their business unit's and the Company's annual goals.Operational and financial goals are established at the beginning of each fiscal year and generally take into account such measures of performance as sales and earnings growth, profitability, cash flow and return on investment.Other non-financial measures of performance relate to organizational development, product or service expansion and strategic positioning of the Company's assets. Individual performance is also taken into account in determining individual bonuses.It is the Company's belief that bonuses as a percentage of a senior executive's salary should be sufficiently high to provide a major incentive for achieving annual performance targets.Bonuses for senior executives of the Company generally range from 25 percent - 100 percent of base salary. 5 6 The stock option and restricted stock program forms the basis of the Company's incentive plans for executive officers and key managers.The objective of these plans is to align executive and long-term stockholder interests by creating a strong and direct link between executive pay and stockholder return. Stock options and restricted stock awards are granted annually and are generally regarded as the primary incentive for long-term performance as they are granted at fair market value and have vesting restrictions which generally lapse over three- or four-year periods.The Committee considers each grantee's current option and award holdings in making grants.Both the amounts of restricted stock awards and proportion of stock options increase as a function of higher salary and position of responsibility within the Company. The Compensation Committee and Incentive Committee have considered, and are continuing to review, the qualifying compensation regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service in December 1993.Generally, the Committees structure compensation arrangements to achieve deductibility under the tax regulations, except where the benefit of such deductibility is outweighed by the need for flexibility or the attainment of other corporate objectives. The base salary of Mr. E. L. Hutton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, during 1995 was $550,000.His bonus in respect of 1995 services was $297,600 which represents an increase of $51,600 over 1994 and 54 percent of his current base salary.In addition, Mr. Hutton received a special bonus of $235,000 in connection with the Company's 1995 capital gains.Restricted stock awards having a value of $266,200 were granted to Mr. Hutton in respect of 1995 services and Mr. Hutton was granted 48,000 stock options.Factors considered in establishing the compensation levels in 1995 for Mr. Hutton were the Company's sales growth of 8.4 percent and the growth of income from continuing operations of 21 percent.The Compensation Committee and the Incentive Committee believe that Mr. Hutton's base salary, the increase in his cash bonus and the restricted stock awards and stock options granted to Mr. Hutton in respect of 1995 services are consistent with his performance as measured by these factors and the other criteria discussed above.
