1.
the proposal to amend the Company's 2006 Stock Incentive Plan to increase by 4,400,000 the number of shares authorized for issuance under the plan and to increase to 1,000,000 the maximum number of shares that may granted in any calendar year to any one participant;

3.
the proposal to continue the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan through the period ending with the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2014 and to approve the material terms under the plan.
The Company's 2006 Stock Incentive Plan, Performance Incentive Bonus Plan and Long-Term Incentive Plan are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Report and are incorporated herein by reference. A summary description of each plan appears below.
2006 Stock Incentive Plan
The purposes of the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Plan") are to induce
certain individuals to remain in the employ, or to continue to serve as
directors of, or consultants or advisors to, the Company and its present and
future subsidiaries, to attract new individuals to enter into such employment or
service, and to encourage such individuals to secure or increase on reasonable
terms their stock ownership in the Company. The Stock Plan permits the grant of
the following types of incentive awards: (1) nonqualified stock options, (2)
incentive stock options, (3) restricted stock, (4) restricted stock units
("RSUs"), (5) stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), (6) performance shares, and
(7) other stock-based awards (collectively, "Awards"). The Stock Plan will
terminate on April 26, 2016, or such earlier date as may be determined by the
Company's Board of Directors.
The Stock Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company's
Board of Directors (or such other committee that the Board may designate from
time to time). Subject to the provisions of the Stock Plan, the Committee has
the authority to: (1) select the persons to whom Awards are to be granted, (2)
determine whether and to what extent Awards are to be granted, (3) determine the
size and type of Awards, (4) approve forms of Award agreement for use under the
Stock Plan, (5) determine the terms and conditions applicable to Awards, (6)
establish performance goals for any performance period and determine whether
such goals were satisfied, (7) subject to certain limitations, amend any
outstanding Award, (8) construe and interpret the Stock Plan and any Award
agreement and apply its provisions and (9) subject to certain limitations, take
any other actions deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the
Stock Plan. The Committee may delegate its authority, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, including its authority to grant Awards to participants who
are not "insiders" subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
or whose compensation is, or is likely to become, subject to the provisions of
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. All decisions,
interpretations and other actions of the Committee are final and binding on all
persons, including the Company, its subsidiaries, employees, directors,
consultants and their estates and beneficiaries.
The number of shares of Company Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Stock Plan is 8,402,554, plus any shares that become available due to the cancellation, termination or expiration of any outstanding options under the Company's prior stock option plans. The shares issued pursuant to Awards may be authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. For purposes of calculating the usage of shares reserved under the Stock Plan, each share underlying a stock option and a SAR is counted as one share, each share underlying a combination of a SAR and a stock option where the exercise of the stock option or SAR results in cancellation of the other, is counted as one share, and each share underlying a grant of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares or other stock-based award is counted as two shares. The maximum aggregate number of shares with respect to which Awards may be granted in any calendar year to any one participant is 1,000,000.
Under the Stock Plan, the per share exercise price of any option cannot be less
than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, which is
(i) the closing sale price of a share of the Common Stock on the New York Stock
Exchange on the date of determination or (ii) if there is no sale of shares on
that date, the closing sale price of a share of the Common Stock on the last
trading date on which sales were reported on the New York Stock Exchange. Each
option granted under the Stock Plan will be evidenced by an Award agreement that
will specify the exercise price, the term of the option, the number of shares to
which the option pertains, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee
determines. In no event will an option granted under the Stock Plan be
exercised more than ten years after the date of grant. Optionees will not have
any rights to dividend equivalents. Payment for shares issued upon exercise of
an option generally may be made in cash, by delivery of shares of Common Stock
owned by the optionee, any other method permitted by the Committee, or a
combination of any permitted payment method.
Each SAR grant will be evidenced by an Award agreement that will specify the exercise price, the term of the SAR and such other terms and conditions as the Committee determines. The grant price of SARs may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. SARs granted under the Stock Plan expire as determined by the Committee, but in no event later than 10 years from the date of grant. Grantees will not have any rights to dividend equivalents. Upon exercise of a SAR, the holder of the SAR will be entitled to receive payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) the difference between the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise over the grant price and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock for which the SAR is exercised. At the discretion of the Committee, payment to the holder of a SAR may be in cash, by delivery of shares of Common Stock owned by the grantee or in some combination thereof.
Each restricted stock or RSU grant will be evidenced by an Award agreement that
will specify the periods of restriction, the number of shares of restricted
stock granted and such other terms and conditions as the Committee determines.
The initial value of an RSU will equal the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the date of grant. Except as otherwise provided in an Award agreement,
upon a termination of employment or a "change in control" or "subsidiary
disposition" (as such terms are defined in the Stock Plan), an Award of
restricted stock or RSUs will have a minimum period of restriction of three
years which may, at the discretion of the Committee, lapse on a prorated, graded
or cliff basis, as specified in the Award agreement. In the Committee's
discretion, holders of restricted stock may receive cash dividends with respect
to all shares held, and holders of RSUs may receive dividend equivalents,
subject to the terms of the respective Award agreements. RSUs (and any dividend
equivalents) may be settled in shares of Common Stock, cash or a combination
thereof, in the Committee's discretion.
Each performance share grant will be evidenced by an Award agreement that will specify the applicable performance period(s) and performance measure(s), the number of performance shares granted and such other terms and conditions as the Committee determines. The initial value of performance shares will equal the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The Committee in its discretion may pay earned performance shares in shares of Common Stock or in cash, or a combination thereof.
The Committee has the right to grant other stock-based awards that may include, without limitation, grants of shares of Common Stock based on the attainment of performance goals, payment of shares of Common Stock as a bonus in lieu of cash based on performance goals, and the payment of shares of Common Stock in lieu of cash under the Company's other incentive or bonus programs. The Committee will have the discretion to determine the vesting of any such Award, provided that, except as specified in an Award agreement, upon a termination of employment or a change in control or subsidiary disposition, there will be a minimum vesting period of three years, which may in the Committee's discretion lapse on a prorated, graded or cliff basis (as specified in the Award agreement). An Award with a payment of shares in lieu of cash under any of the Company's other incentive or bonus programs will not be subject to a minimum vesting period.
The Committee may grant Awards which are intended to qualify as
"performance-based compensation" for purposes of deductibility under Section
162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. For any such Award, the Committee will
establish the performance objectives to be used within 90 days after the
commencement of the performance period, or, if less, 25% of the performance
period applicable to such Award. The performance objectives to be used shall be
selected from the following list of measures: earnings, earnings before interest
and taxes, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization,
earnings per share, economic value created, market share, net income (before or
after taxes), operating income, adjusted net income after capital charge, return
on assets, return on capital (based on earnings or cash flow), return on equity,
return on investment, revenue, cash flow, operating margin, share price, total
stockholder return, total market value, and strategic business criteria,
consisting of one or more objectives based on meeting specified market
penetration goals, productivity measures, geographic business expansion goals,
cost targets, customer satisfaction or employee satisfaction goals, goals
relating to merger synergies, management of employment practices and employee
benefits, or supervision of litigation or information technology, and goals
relating to acquisitions or divestitures of subsidiaries, affiliates or joint
ventures. The targeted level or levels of performance with respect to the
performance measures may be established at such levels and on such terms as the
Committee may determine, in its discretion, on a corporate-wide basis or with
respect to one or more business units, divisions, subsidiaries, business
segments or functions, and in either absolute terms or relative to the
performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple
companies. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, measurement of
performance goals with respect to the performance measures above will exclude
the impact of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary
items and other unusual or non-recurring items, as well as the cumulative
effects of tax or accounting changes, each as determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles or identified in the Company's
financial statements, notes to the financial statements, management's discussion
and analysis or other filings with the Securities Exchange Commission. Awards
that are not intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code may be based on these or such other
performance measures as the Committee may determine.
In the event of a restatement of the Company's financial results to correct a material error or inaccuracy resulting in whole or in part from the fraud or intentional misconduct of a senior executive employee as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, the Board or the committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) cancel or cause to be cancelled any or all of the senior executive employee's outstanding Awards granted after December 31, 2008, (ii) recover or cause to be recovered any or all proceeds resulting from any sale or other disposition (including to the Company) of shares issued or issuable upon vesting, settlement or exercise, as the case may be, of any Award granted after December 31, 2008 and/or (iii) recover or cause to be recovered any cash paid or shares issued to the senior executive employee in connection with any vesting, settlement or exercise of an Award granted after December 31, 2008.
In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning of FASB Statement No. 123R), such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering, or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend the Committee shall cause there to be an equitable adjustment in the corporate structure affecting the shares of Common Stock, such adjustment will be made in the number and kind of shares that may be delivered under the Stock Plan, the individual Award limits, and, with respect to outstanding Awards, in the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards, the exercise price, grant price or other price of shares subject to outstanding Awards, any performance conditions relating to shares, the market price of shares, or per-share results, and other terms and conditions of outstanding Awards, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights. In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, such as a merger, consolidation, or liquidation, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, cause there to be such equitable adjustment as described in the foregoing sentence, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights; provided, however, that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the number of shares subject to any Award will always be rounded down to a whole number. Any such adjustment will be made by the Committee, whose determination will be conclusive.
In the event of a change in control, except as otherwise provided in an Award
agreement, any and all outstanding options and SARs will become immediately
exercisable, any period of restriction or other restrictions imposed on
restricted stock, RSUs or other stock-based Awards will lapse and any and all
performance shares, and other performance-based Awards will vest, on a pro rata
monthly basis. The Committee, in its discretion, may provide that all
outstanding options and SARs are terminated upon a change in control and provide
cash settlement equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the
Common Stock immediately prior to the change in control over the option
exercise price or SAR grant price, as applicable. The Committee also has the
authority to provide for automatic full vesting and exercisability of Awards
held by certain participants affected by a subsidiary disposition.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Awards (or portions of Awards)
that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code and any related regulations or other guidance promulgated
thereunder ("Section 409A"), if an event or condition constituting a change in
control does not constitute a "change in the ownership" or a "change in the
effective control" of the Company or a "change in the ownership of a substantial
portion of a corporation's assets" (each within the meaning of Section 409A),
the event or condition will continue to constitute a change in control solely
with respect to vesting of the Award (or portion thereof) or a lapse of any
applicable restrictions thereto and not for purposes of determining whether the
settlement or payment of the Award (or portion thereof ) will be accelerated
under the Stock Plan.
The effect that the termination of a participant's employment due to death or retirement has upon the vesting of an Award is dictated by the terms of the agreement relating to such Award.
Performance Incentive Bonus Plan
The purposes of the Performance Incentive Bonus Plan (the "Bonus Plan") are to induce certain senior executive employees to remain in the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries, to attract new senior executive employees and to provide additional incentive to such senior executive employees to promote the success of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Bonus Plan is effective for awards made prior to the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2014 and will terminate after payment of all bonuses, if any, earned with respect to awards made under the Bonus Plan prior to such meeting, unless the stockholders approve the continuation of the Plan no later than the date of the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Bonus Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee (or such other committee of the Board of Directors that the Board may designate from time to time).
Under the terms of the Bonus Plan, within 90 days after the commencement of each
fiscal year, the Committee is required to determine the executives of the
Company and its subsidiaries who will be participants in the Bonus Plan with
respect to such fiscal year and the performance objectives that must be
satisfied for a participant to be eligible to receive a bonus. Performance
cycles of less than one year may also be established, with performance
objectives determined prior to the expiration of 25% of the cycle's length.
Performance objectives are based upon the achievement of earnings or other
performance measures established by the Committee. If and to the extent the
performance objectives are achieved, participants are eligible to receive a
bonus based upon a percentage of their base salary in effect on the October 31
that coincides with or immediately precedes the last day of the performance
cycle. The Committee establishes three or more targets for each performance
cycle, consisting of at least threshold (below which no bonus is payable), plan
and maximum (above which no additional bonus is payable) targets, and bonus
percentages are established for the achievement of each of the targets. The
percentage is lowest for achievement of the threshold target and is highest if
the maximum target is achieved or exceeded. If the level of achievement falls
between two of the targets, the bonus is based on a percentage of the
participant's base salary that is on a straight-line interpolation between the
percentages for the two targets, or such other basis as the Committee determines
at the time the performance objective for the participant is established.
In the event that there is a "change in control" (as such term is defined in the Bonus Plan) during a performance cycle or a participant's employment terminates during a performance cycle by reason of his or her death, the participant or his or her estate, as the case may be, is entitled to receive a bonus equal to the bonus payable to such participant if the plan level for such performance cycle had been achieved prorated to the portion of such performance cycle actually worked by such participant through the date of the change in control or the participant's death. If a participant's employment terminates during a performance cycle by reason of his or her disability or "retirement" (as such term is defined in the Bonus Plan), the participant is entitled to receive the bonus, if any, which would otherwise been payable to such participant for such performance cycle prorated to the portion of such performance cycle actually worked by such participant. In all other cases, a participant must be employed by the Company at the end of the performance cycle in order to remain eligible to receive a bonus.
Participants who qualify for a bonus receive their bonuses in the form of a single sum cash payment no later than 30 days after the Committee certifies that the performance objective have been satisfied (or in the case of a bonus payable as a result of a change in control or the participant's death, within 30 days of the change in control or the participant's death). In addition, in the event any payment under the Bonus Plan constitutes "deferred compensation" (within the meaning of Section 409A), and such payment is payable to a participant who is a "specified employee" (as determined under the Company's policy for identifying specified employees) on the date of his or her "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A), the date for payment of such bonus will be the earlier of (i) death or (ii) the later of (x) the date that payment would otherwise be made under the Bonus Plan or (y) the first business day following the end of the sixth-month period following the date of the participant's separation from service.
In the event of a restatement of the Company's financial results to correct a material error or inaccuracy resulting in whole or in part from the fraud or intentional misconduct of a participant, as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, the Board or the committee (i) will review or cause to be reviewed all bonuses paid to the participant pursuant to the Bonus Plan on the basis of having met or exceeded performance objective(s) or other measures or goals for performance cycles beginning after 2008 to the extent the bonuses relate, in whole or in part, to the periods with respect to which the financial statements are restated and, if a lesser bonus or bonuses would have been paid to the participant based upon the restated financial results, the Board or the committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, recover or cause to be recovered for the Company's benefit the amount by which the participant's bonus or bonuses for the restated period(s) exceeded such lesser bonus or bonuses, plus a reasonable rate of interest and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, may take or cause to be taken for the Company's benefit such additional action(s) deemed by the Board or committee to be appropriate including, without limitation, cancellation of the participant outstanding bonus opportunities and recovery (in whole or in part) of any additional amounts relating to prior bonuses paid to the participant under the Bonus Plan.
Long-Term Incentive Plan
The purposes of the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") are to induce certain senior executive employees to remain in the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries and to provide inducement for such senior executive employees to promote the success of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company's "executive officers," as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are the only persons eligible to participate in the LTIP. The LTIP is effective for awards made prior to the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2014 and will terminate after payment of all awards earned thereunder with respect to awards made under the LTIP prior to such meeting, unless the stockholders approve the continuation of the LTIP no later than the date of the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The LTIP is administered by the Compensation Committee (or such other committee of the Board of Directors designated by the Board).
Under the terms of the LTIP, within 90 days after the commencement of each performance cycle, the Committee is required to determine the performance objectives with respect to such performance cycle. Performance cycles are a three fiscal year period, or other period of at least 13 months, established by the Committee. Performance objectives are based upon earnings per share growth, return on equity performance or other performance criteria established by the Committee. The Committee establishes three or more targets for each performance cycle, consisting of at least threshold (below which no award is payable), plan and maximum (above which no additional award is payable) targets, and awards are established for the achievement of each of the targets. Awards are based upon a percentage of a participant's base salary. The percentage is lowest for achievement of the threshold target and is highest if the maximum target is achieved or exceeded. If the level of achievement falls between two of the targets, the award will be based on a percentage of the participant's base salary that is an interpolation between the percentages for the two targets.
In the event that there is a "change in control" (as such term is defined in the LTIP) during a performance cycle or a participant's employment terminates during a performance cycle by reason of his or her death, the participant or his or her estate, as the case may be, is entitled to receive an award equal to the award payable to such participant if the plan level for such performance cycle had been achieved prorated to the portion of such performance cycle actually worked by such participant through the date of the change in control or the participant's death. If a participant's employment terminates during a performance cycle by reason of his or her disability, the participant will receive the award, if any, which would otherwise been payable to such participant for such performance cycle prorated to the portion of such performance cycle actually worked by such participant. If a participant's employment terminates during a performance cycle by reason of his or her "retirement" (as such term is defined in the LTIP) or discharge without "cause" (as such term is defined in the LTIP) or for any reason which would constitute grounds for the participant to voluntarily terminate his or her employment for "good reason" under the terms of the participant's employment agreement, if any, with the Company or a subsidiary, such participant will be entitled to receive the award, if any, which would otherwise have been payable to such participant for such performance cycle prorated to the portion of such performance cycle actually worked by such participant; provided, however, that in the case of a participant who retires or is discharged without cause or terminates employment for "good reason" prior to 12 months following the commencement of a performance cycle, no award will be payable. In all other cases, a participant must be employed by the Company at the end of the performance cycle in order to remain eligible to receive an award.
If a participant earns an award with respect to a performance cycle, he or she
will receive his or her award in the form of a single sum cash payment no later
than 30 days after the Committee certifies that the performance objectives have
been achieved (or in the case of an award payable as a result of a change in
control or the participant's death, within 30 days of the change in control or
the participant's death). In addition, in the event any payment under the LTIP
constitutes "deferred compensation" (within the meaning of Section 409A), and
such payment is payable to a participant who is a "specified employee" (as
determined under the Company's policy for identifying specified employees) on
the date of his or her "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section
409A), the date for payment of such award will be the earlier of (i) death or
(ii) the later of (x) the date that payment would otherwise be made under the
LTIP or (y) the first business day following the end of the sixth-month period
following the date of the participant's separation from service.
In the event of a restatement of the Company's financial results to correct a material error or inaccuracy resulting in whole or in part from the fraud or intentional misconduct of a participant, as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, the Board or the committee (i) will review or cause to be reviewed all awards paid to the participant pursuant to the LTIP on the basis of having met or exceeded performance objective(s) or other measures or goals for performance cycles beginning after 2008 to the extent the awards relate, in whole or in part, to the periods with respect to which the financial statements are restated and, if a lesser award or awards would have been paid to the participant based upon the restated financial results, the Board or the committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, recover or cause to be . . .
