Pay Versus Performance Disclosure
As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following disclosure regarding executive compensation for our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and non-PEO named executive officers (“NEOs”) and Company performance for the fiscal years listed below. The Board did not consider the pay versus performance disclosure below in making its pay decisions for the year shown. For the most recently completed fiscal year, as a smaller reporting company, the Company was exempt from providing peer group total shareholder return (TSR) and did not use any “financial performance measures” as defined Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K to link compensation paid to the NEOs. Accordingly, we have omitted the tabular list of financial performance measures and the table below does not include a column for a “Company-Selected Measure” or “Peer Group TSR” as defined in Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K.
As described in more detail above under “Summary Compensation Table,” the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a performance-driven compensation philosophy and the Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore does not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.
