Written Description of 

2017 Executive Incentive Compensation Annual Plan – 

Chief Credit Officer

 

The following is a description of the material terms of the 2017 Executive Incentive Compensation Annual Plan (the “Plan”) that was adopted by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Guaranty Federal Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) with respect to the bonus payable to Sheri Biser, the Company’s Chief Credit Officer (the "Executive"), for 2017:

 

The Plan will pay a maximum of $88,000 of which one hundred-percent (100%) of the bonus amount will be paid in cash. There are three possible levels of incentive awards: threshold (25%); target (50%); and maximum (100%). For any bonus amount to be paid, the threshold level of performance must be achieved. The bonus amount will be prorated for performance achievements between the threshold and target levels and between the target and maximum levels. The four performance measurements of the Company (and the weight given to each measurement) applicable to each award level are as follows: (i) revenue growth (20%), (ii) net interest margin (20%), (iii) pre-tax net income (30%), and (iv) non-performing assets to average total assets (30%). The following minimum criteria must all be satisfied before an award is paid under the Plan: (i) net income of the Company for calendar year 2017 of at least 75% of approved budget to receive full performance incentive and incentive will be reduced by 50% if Company achieves between 50% and 74.99% of budget net income; No incentive will be paid if net income is below 50% of budget; (ii) satisfactory audits as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company after review of findings from regulatory examination reports and applicable audits and reviews; (iii) the Company and Guaranty Bank must maintain capital ratios to meet regulatory “well capitalized” status; and (iv) satisfactory performance appraisal, actively employed by Guaranty Bank, and in good standing at the time the bonus is paid, which will not be prior to the public release of earnings in 2018 for the calendar year 2017. 

 

If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment other than for cause (as defined in Executive’s employment agreement) before the end of the performance year, then the Executive will be eligible for a prorated incentive payment (at target level) except for a change in control of the Company. If the Executive’s employment ends within twelve months following a change in control of the Company, then the Executive will be eligible for an incentive amount computed in accordance with the Executive’s employment agreement.

 

The Plan will have a modifier that adjusts incentive awards upward or downward based on the Company’s performance relative to its peer group. The peer group will be a defined group of similar sized Midwestern publicly traded banks as determined by the Company’s compensation consultant. If the weighted average of the Company’s performance in return on average assets, net interest margin and efficiency ratio are at or above the peer group 60th percentile, the executives’ incentive awards will be increased by an additional ten percent of salary. If performance is above the 70th percentile, the awards will be increased by twenty percent of salary. If performance in the same three measurements falls below the 50th percentile, awards will be reduced by ten percent of salary.

 

The Board of Directors of the Company retains the right to make the final determination of the bonus payment and amount, if any, and may consider other pertinent facts prior to making an award. All incentive payments shall be subject to the Company’s Compensation Clawback Policy.ex10-6.htm

Burke, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer (the "Grantee"), for the period beginning on March 29, 2017 (the “Grant Date”) and ending December 31, 2019 (the “Performance Period”). 

 

One hundred-percent (100%) of the incentive amount will be paid in restricted stock units (the “Units”), representing the right to earn, on a one-for-one basis, shares of the Company’s common stock. The Plan will pay a maximum of 18,280 shares of which there are three possible levels of incentive awards: threshold (25%); target (50%); and maximum (100%). For any bonus amount to be paid, the threshold level of performance must be achieved. The bonus amount will be prorated for performance achievements between the threshold and target levels and between the target and maximum levels. The two performance measurements of the Company (and the weight given to each measurement) applicable to each award level are as follows: (i) Total Assets (50%) and (ii) Return on Average Assets (50%). The following minimum criteria must all be satisfied before an award is paid under the Plan: (i) No consent orders from any regulatory agency are in place at the time of vesting and (ii) No decline in composite CAMELS rating by the end of the Performance Period as compared to the ratings as of the Grant Date.

 

No later than March 15th following the end of the Performance Period, the Committee shall determine the Company’s achievement of the performance goals and shall certify such results in writing. Upon such certification, the Units shall become vested on such date (the “Vesting Date”) to the extent the performance goals are attained. Vested Units will be converted to shares of common stock on the Vesting Date (the “Conversion Date”). Any Units that fail to vest in accordance with the terms of the Plan will be forfeited to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by the Grantee. 

 

If the Grantee’s employment with the Company ends prior to the Vesting Date, the Grantee’s Units shall be forfeited in their entirety, except as follows:

 

(i)       Death or Disability. If Grantee’s employment ends by reason of death or disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) prior to the Vesting Date, then all relevant performance goals will be deemed to have been achieved at the “Target” level and the Units will be converted to shares of common stock as of such death or disability.

(ii)      Change in Control. If there is a Change in Control prior to the Vesting Date, all relevant performance goals will be measured based on actual performance through the date of the Change in Control and will be converted to shares of common stock as of such Change in Control.

(iii)     Retirement. If Grantee retires from employment on or after age 65 (or on or after age 55 with twenty or more years of service) prior to the Vesting Date but at least one year into the Performance Period, the Units shall be prorated by a factor equal to the quotient of each full month of service from the Grant Date to the date of such Retirement, divided by the number of total months in the Performance Period, and such prorated Units shall become vested on the Vesting Date and converted to shares of common stock on the Conversion Date to the extent the performance goals are attained for the applicable Performance Period.

 

Grantee shall not have voting or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Units. Dividends or dividend equivalents will not be paid with respect to the Units. Upon conversion of the Units into shares of common stock, Grantee will obtain full voting and other rights as a stockholder of the Company.ex10-7.htm
