2023 NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS’ COMPENSATION—OUR COMPENSATION STRATEGY / COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



        2023 Named Executive Officers’ Compensation – Our Compensation Strategy
        Our executive compensation program is specifically designed to:

        • Attract and retain top-caliber, knowledgeable and experienced senior executives.
        • Motivate our executives to achieve superior results and build long-term value for shareholders.
        • Reward performance that meets or exceeds established goals consistent with our strategic aims and upholding
          integrity.
        • Align individual objectives with the Company’s objectives without fostering excessive or inappropriate risk-taking.
        • Encourage an ownership mentality and align the long-term financial interests of our executives with those of our
          shareholders.
        • Be market competitive with our peers with whom we compete for talent.
        • Provide reward systems that are measurable and easily understood by our executives and shareholders.
        • Inspire exceptional management and resiliency in times of unexpected and extraordinary circumstances.
        • Reinforce the succession planning process undertaken on a company-wide basis by building bench strength and by
          identifying and retaining senior leadership capable of achieving the Company’s long-term growth, profitability and other
          objectives.
        In 2023, our executive compensation structure consisted of three primary components: base salary, annual incentives, and
        long-term incentives. Within the long-term incentive component, we utilized a balanced portfolio of PSUs and RSUs.
