Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
At its March 4, 2014 meeting, the Executive Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Tredegar Corporation (the “Corporation”) approved payments under an annual cash incentive plan applicable to the Corporation’s executive officers (the “2013 Incentive Plan”). The Compensation Committee approved the 2013 Incentive Plan in 2013 and incentives were to be paid out only if financial performance targets were met and individual objectives were achieved.
During 2013, the short-term incentive compensation component of the Corporation’s executive compensation program was measured by performance relating to the earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) and working capital as a percentage of sales (“WC%S”) objectives established by the Compensation Committee, as set forth in the 2013 Incentive Plan. Under the 2013 Incentive Plan, EBIT was weighted at 70% and maximum WC%S was weighted at 30%. For 2013, consolidated EBIT of the Corporation was between threshold and target levels under the 2013 Incentive Plan, and the Corporation’s WC%S was between target and maximum levels, which led to payouts to the named executives, other than Ms. Hellyar, in amounts between the executive’s threshold and target annual incentive opportunities. The payouts to Ms. Taylor and Messrs. O’Leary and King (the corporate named executive officers) were based on straight line interpolation between their threshold and target annual incentive opportunities. The amounts paid to Messrs. O’Leary and King were determined based on the incentive formula for financial performance and the Chief Executive Officer’s assessment of their performance relative to their individual goals and objectives. The amount paid to Ms. Taylor was determined based on the incentive formula for financial performance and the Compensation Committee’s assessment of Ms. Taylor’s performance relative to her individual goals and objectives.
For 2013, Film Products’ EBIT and WC%S were between threshold and target levels under the 2013 Incentive Plan, which led to a payout to Ms. Hellyar in an amount between her threshold and target annual incentive opportunity. The amount paid to Ms. Hellyar was determined based on the incentive formula for financial performance and the Chief Executive Officer’s assessment of Ms. Hellyar’s performance relative to her individual goals and objectives.
The Compensation Committee approved the following incentive payments under the 2013 Incentive Plan for the following named executive officers:
|
| | | |
Name | Title | Percent of Annual Base Salary | Dollar Value |
Nancy M. Taylor | President and CEO | 62%* | $412,086 |
Kevin A. O’Leary | VP, CFO and Treasurer | 39% | $136,604 |
Mary Jane Hellyar | VP and Pres., Film Products | 25% | $92,731 |
A. Brent King | VP, General Counsel and Secy. | 35% | $114,905 |
*Based on Ms. Taylor’s current salary of $659,950, which reflects a 10% salary reduction requested by Ms. Taylor to support the Corporation’s 2014 cost reduction initiatives. The Compensation Committee approved Ms. Taylor’s salary reduction request on December 17, 2013, and the salary reduction became effective January 1, 2014.
