Perform ance Measures As described in greater detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement, the Corporation’s executive compensation program reflects a pay-for-performance philosophy. The metrics that the Corporation uses for both our long-term and short-term incentive awards are selected based on an objective of incentivizing our NEOs to increase the value of our enterprise for our shareholders.
