Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

The Compensation Committee makes direct compensation decisions with respect to the compensation of Mr. Heilbron, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and establishes the general parameters within which it establishes the compensation for our other named executive officers and senior management team. The Compensation Committee may also review equity awards to other officers and employees. Our Chief Executive Officer is not present for any deliberations or decisions on his own compensation.

The Chief Executive Officer reviews the performance of our other named executive officers and senior management team annually and makes recommendations with respect to salary adjustments, bonuses and equity award amounts for such individuals. The Compensation Committee may choose to exercise its discretion in modifying any recommended adjustment or award.

Total Compensation

Total annual compensation consists of base salary, cash incentives, and long-term equity incentive compensation in the form of stock. In setting the total annual compensation for our named executive officers, information on the performance of each named executive officer for the prior year and market data covering peer group salaries are generally utilized. This evaluation is comprised of both a quantitative assessment as well as a qualitative assessment. The target levels for the total annual compensation of our named executive officers and senior management team are generally less than the average of the peer group used, primarily due to our size. We believe that this approach contemplates both the quantitative and qualitative elements of each position and rewards performance. In addition, this approach allows our skilled and talented executives to guide and lead our business and supports a “pay for performance” culture.

Annual Cash Compensation

Base Salary

Each of our named executive officers receives a base salary to compensate him for services performed during the year. When determining the base salary for each of our named executive officers, the market levels of similar positions (discounted for size) at the peer group companies, the performance of the named executive officer, the experience of the named executive officer in his position, and the other components of compensation and total compensation are generally considered. The named executive officers are eligible for annual increases in their base salaries.

Annual Non-Equity Compensation

A significant portion of each named executive officer’s compensation is in the form of an annual cash bonus and stock grants. For 2024, named executive officers and all Company employees could elect to receive all or a portion of their annual cash bonus in the form of stock that immediately vested equal to approximately two times cash. None of the named executive officers, except Mr. Heilbron, elected that option this year. The annual bonuses are primarily based upon quantifiable company
