Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
Other Named Executive Officer Performance Program for Fiscal Year 2022
On March 26, 2022, after consultations with Mr. Liang, and consideration of
input received from the Compensation Committee's compensation consultant, which
included the results of an executive compensation study, the Compensation
Committee adopted an executive compensation framework (the "Framework") and
specific executive compensation program based upon such Framework for two of the
Company's named executive officers ("NEOs"), Mr. Weigand (the "CFO Compensation
Program") and Mr. Clegg, (the "SVP Sales Compensation Program," and, together
with the "CFO Compensation Program", the "Compensation Programs"). The
Compensation Committee currently expects the Framework to be utilized for fiscal
year 2022 and future fiscal years.
The Compensation Committee believes the Framework and Compensation Programs
further the Company's executive compensation philosophy to link compensation to
corporate, divisional and individual performance. The principal compensation
elements of the Framework and Compensation Programs are:
-Base salaries in the form of cash and representing fixed compensation to reward
individual performance and contributions ("Base Salaries"). Base Salaries for
fiscal year 2022 are $418,000 and $376,640 for Mr. Weigand and Mr. Clegg,
respectively, effective July 1, 2021;
-A fixed bonus component payable in semi-monthly installments in the form of
cash, which amount may be adjusted annually and is based upon a percentage of
Base Salary (the "Fixed Bonus"). The Fixed Bonuses for fiscal year 2022 are 25%
for Mr. Clegg, 30% for Mr. Weigand, and are payable effective October 1, 2021;
and
-A performance-based annual incentive award ("Performance Incentive Award")
which (if earned) is payable 20% in the form of cash (the "Performance Cash")
and 80% in the form of service-based RSUs which will generally vest, subject to
the terms of the applicable award agreement, in equal installments over a period
of four years (the "Performance Shares"):
-The amount of the Performance Incentive Award is determined as a multiple (the
"Multiple") of a base incentive target that is set for each individual NEO as a
percentage of his Base Salary (the "Base Incentive Target"). The Base Incentive
Target for fiscal year 2022 was set at 10% of Base Salary for each of Messrs.
Weigand and Clegg; and
-The Multiple is based upon achievement against the aggregate performance
metrics set for each individual NEO (the "KPIs"). For Mr. Weigand, the KPIs for
fiscal year 2022 are based upon (i) percentage appreciation in stock price from
the prior fiscal year, (ii) percentage increase in number of long-term investors
in the Company from the prior fiscal year, and (iii) an individual performance
evaluation rating given by the chief executive officer for the fiscal year. For
Mr. Clegg, the KPIs for fiscal year 2022 are based upon (i) percentage
appreciation in stock price from the prior fiscal year, (ii) percentage increase
in worldwide revenue from the prior fiscal year, (iii) percentage increase in
worldwide net profit from the prior fiscal year and (iv) an individual
performance evaluation rating given by the chief executive officer for the
fiscal year. For each of Mr. Weigand and Mr. Clegg, a decrease in stock price,
long-term investors, worldwide revenue, and/or worldwide net profit from the
prior fiscal year (as may be applicable) results in a score of zero to be
assigned to such NEO's applicable KPI for purposes of determining the Multiple.
The scores from each individual KPI achievement are totaled to determine the
Multiple.
The Framework may also be utilized to develop compensation plans for other
executive officers (other than the chief executive officer) during the course of
fiscal year 2022 and future fiscal years.
