Issuance of Performance Shares under the 2004-2006 Performance Share Plan

 

On January 31, 2007, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), approved the issuance of 196,597 shares of common stock under the Company’s Performance Share Grant Agreements covering the three year period from January 1, 2004 through December 31, 2006 (collectively, the “2004 Performance Agreement”). The 2004 Performance Agreement was made pursuant to the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan and Director Equity Plan. The 2004 Performance Agreement provided for a targeted number of performance shares totaling 293,240 to be issued to certain officers, including each of the named executive officers of the Company as noted below. The ultimate award when originally granted was expected to range from zero to 200% of the target award, depending on the Company’s total shareholder return compared to companies listed in the Russell 2000 Index and airport market share growth of the Company’s two vehicle rental brands, Dollar and Thrifty, during the performance period. Upon calculation of the final results under the 2004 Performance Agreement, the ultimate award for grantees employed for the full three years was 74.6% of the target award, and the award for grantees not employed for the full three years was pro rated based on length of service at 100% of the target award pursuant to the terms of the 2004 Performance Agreement. The following table details the number of shares issued to the named and former named executive officers of the Company:

 
Named
Executive Officer
   
 
Title
  Number of
Performance
Shares Issued

 
 
Gary L. Paxton   President and Chief Executive Officer   27,466
Donald M. Himelfarb   Former Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer   23,051
Steven B. Hildebrand   Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer   16,785
John J. Foley   Senior Executive Vice President   12,869
R. Scott Anderson   Senior Executive Vice President   12,764

 

2007 Incentive Compensation Plan

 

On February 1, 2007, the Compensation Committee approved the 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Incentive Compensation Plan”). The Incentive Compensation Plan continues the Company’s value-sharing concept and provides for a fixed percentage of the pretax profit (the “Incentive Pool”) to be shared in cash with employees if results equal or exceed a threshold level of profit margin performance.

 

The Incentive Pool created by the sharing percentage is allocated to participants based on individual target award levels. These target award levels differ by participant and by the responsibilities of the positions held by each participant. The following table details the target awards of the named executive officers of the Company:

 
Named
Executive Officer
   
 
Title
  Target Award
(as a Percentage
of Base Salary

 
 
Gary L. Paxton   President and Chief Executive Officer   100%
Steven B. Hildebrand   Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer   75%
John J. Foley   Senior Executive Vice President   70%
R. Scott Anderson   Senior Executive Vice President   70%

 

Generally, the executive class awards are weighted so that 80% of the pool is awarded based on the formula (i.e., a specified percentage of base salary) and 20% of the pool is awarded based on individual performance. Upon achievement of the specified target, management will recommend to the Compensation Committee individual participant awards for approval. It is anticipated that if the target is attained, the payout under the Incentive Compensation Plan would occur in February 2008.

 

The Incentive Compensation Plan also includes a mechanism for recovery of awards where a participant engages in “Detrimental Activity”.

Paxton, Steven B. Hildebrand, R. Scott Anderson and John J. Foley. The 2007 Performance Agreement specifies the Company must attain certain metrics for the officers to be awarded common stock. The metrics are based on the Company’s total shareholder return compared to companies listed in the Russell 2000 Index, airport market share of the Company’s two vehicle rental brands, Dollar and Thrifty, non-airport revenue of Dollar and Thrifty, customer satisfaction and customer retention.

Section 3.       Notice of Meeting. The Secretary shall given written notice of an annual or special meeting to stockholders of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Unless otherwise provided by law, the notice shall be given not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting.

 

When a meeting of stockholders is adjourned to another date, time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the date, time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the adjournment is for more than thirty days or if, after the adjournment, a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. At the adjourned meeting any business may be transacted which may have been transacted at the original meeting.

 

Section 4.        Quorum. The holders of a majority of the shares of capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for all purposes, unless a larger number shall be required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws.

Section 5.         Qualifications to Vote. Only stockholders whose shares are registered in their names on the Corporation’s stock transfer records at the close of business on the record date fixed in accordance with Article V of these By-Laws for a stockholders meeting shall be entitled to vote at such meeting.

2

new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, and (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such business.

The Chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9, and if he or she should so determine, the Chairman shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

 

(b)        Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which Directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (ii) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that Directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who (A) is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in these By-Laws and at the time of the special meeting, (B) is entitled to vote at the meeting, and (C) complies with the notice procedures set forth in these By-Laws. In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more Directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting, if the stockholder’s notice required by Article I, Section 10 of these By-Laws (including the completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement required by Article I, Section 12 of these By-Laws) is delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation in accordance with the time periods specified in Article I, Section 10 of these By-Laws. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of a special meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

 

Section 10.      Notice of Stockholder Nominations. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 10 shall be eligible for election as Directors by the stockholders. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation may be made at a meeting of stockholders by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or by any stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of Directors at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 10. Such nominations, other than those made by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Secretary. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive officers of the Corporation not less than ninety (90) nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that not less than one hundred (100) days notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. In no

 

3

event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a Director, (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of such person, (iii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by such person, (iv) any other information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of Directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including without limitation such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a Director if elected), (v) a description of all direct and indirect compensation and other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past five years, and any other material relationships, between or among such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, and their respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith on the one hand, and each proposed nominee, and his or her respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the other hand, including, without limitation, all information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K if the stockholder making the nomination and any beneficial owner on whose behalf the nomination is made, if any, or any affiliate or associate thereof or person acting in concert therewith, were the “registrant” for purposes of such rule and the nominee were a director or executive officer of such registrant, and (vi) the completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement required by Article I, Section 12 of these By-Laws, and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice (i) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of such stockholder and (ii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by such stockholder. The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Corporation or that could be material to a reasonable stockholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee .At the request of the Board of Directors any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a Director shall furnish to the Secretary that information required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a Director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 10. The Chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these By-Laws, and if he or she should so determine he or she shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

 

Section 11.      Action by Consent.     (a) Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action which is required to be or may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, subject to the provisions of subsections (b), (c), (d), and (e) of this Section 11, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall have been signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or to take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation as provided in this Section 11. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting and by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

(b)        Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty days of the earliest dated written consent received by the Corporation in accordance with this Section 11, a written consent or consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take such action are delivered to the Corporation in the manner prescribed in this Section 11.

 

(c)        In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a record date. Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent without a meeting shall, by written notice to the Secretary, request the Board of Directors to fix a record date. Upon receipt of such a request, the Secretary shall, as promptly as practicable, call a special meeting of the Board of Directors to be held as promptly as practicable, but in any event not more than 10 days following the date of receipt of such a request.

Continue the value-sharing concept which provides for a fixed percentage of profit, the incentive pool (12.75% of pre-tax profit which excludes the effects of FASB133), to be shared if results equal or exceed a threshold level of profit margin performance. The pre-tax margin, excluding the effects of FASB133, threshold for 2007 is 5%.

Impact of Detrimental Activity on Award

 

If a participant in the 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan, either during employment by DTAG or a subsidiary or within six (6) months after termination of such employment, shall engage in any Detrimental Activity (defined below), and the Board of Directors of DTAG (or any committee as delegated by the Board) (the “Board”) shall so find, the participant shall return to DTAG all or so much of the award (as determined by the Board) made to the participant under the plan. The Board may determine to recover different amounts from different participants or different classes in the plan on such bases as it shall deem appropriate. To the extent that the amount of the award is not fully paid and returned to DTAG, it may set off the amount so payable to it against any amounts that may be owing from time to time by DTAG or a subsidiary to the participant, whether as wages, deferred compensation or vacation pay or in the form of any other benefit or for any other reason. DTAG shall not enforce remedies upon occurrence of a Detrimental Activity against any participant in excess of or beyond restrictions or limitations under applicable law.

 

As used herein, “Detrimental Activity” means:

(i)           Engaging in any activity, as an employee, principal, agent, or consultant for another entity that competes with DTAG in any actual, researched, or prospective product, service, system, or business activity for which the participant has had any direct responsibility during the last two years of his or her employment with DTAG or a subsidiary, in any territory in which DTAG or a subsidiary manufactures, sells, markets, services, or installs such product, service, or system, or engages in such business activity.

(ii)          Soliciting any employee of DTAG or a subsidiary to terminate his or her employment with DTAG or a subsidiary.

(iii)        The disclosure to anyone outside DTAG or a subsidiary, or the use in other than DTAG’s or a subsidiary’s business, without prior written authorization from DTAG, of any confidential, proprietary or trade secret information or material relating to the business of DTAG and its subsidiaries, acquired by the participant during his or her employment with DTAG or its subsidiaries or while acting as a consultant for DTAG or its subsidiaries thereafter.

(iv)         The failure or refusal to disclose promptly and to assign to DTAG upon request all right, title and interest in any invention or idea, patentable or not, made or conceived by the participant during employment by DTAG and any subsidiary, relating in any manner to the actual or anticipated business, research or development work of DTAG or any subsidiary or the failure or refusal to do anything reasonably necessary to enable DTAG or any subsidiary to secure a patent where appropriate in the United States and in other countries.

(v)          Activity that results in Termination for Cause. “Termination for Cause” shall mean a termination:

(a)          due to the participant’s willful and continuous gross neglect of his or her duties for which he or she is employed, or

 

2

(b)          due to an act of dishonesty on the part of the participant constituting a felony resulting or intended to result, directly or indirectly, in his or her gain for personal enrichment at the expense of DTAG or a subsidiary.

(vi)         Any other conduct or act determined to be injurious, detrimental or prejudicial to any significant interest of DTAG or any subsidiary unless the participant acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of DTAG.

(vii)       Conduct by a participant, including errors, omissions or fraud, that caused or partially caused the need for the restatement of any financial statements or financial results of DTAG.

(i)

               The TSR award shall be determined by the Company’s TSR results versus the companies that are currently listed and remain in the Russell 2000 index during the Performance Period. The TSR for each company will be calculated by using the average stock price for the trading days in _________________ plus any dividends that have been paid during the Performance Period and then dividing by the average stock price for the trading days in _________________. Only companies that are included in the Russell 2000 at the beginning of the Performance Period and at the end of the Performance Period will be used for this calculation.

               Should the TSR calculation result in a payout of ____%, then the payout of this plan for all metrics will be ____%. Should the TSR calculation result in a payout of greater than ____%, then the five award percentages computed in Sections 3(a)(i), 3(a)(ii), 3(a)(iii), 3(a)(iv) and 3(a)(v) above will be added together to form the final adjustment factor. All calculations above will be interpolated should the actual result fall between percentage points. Results may be rounded to the nearest whole number as deemed appropriate by the Committee.

The remaining Performance Shares shall be forfeited. Payment date for these shares shall not be later than March 15 of the year following termination.

The Employee shall forfeit the remaining Performance Shares. Payment date for these shares shall not be later than March 15 of the year following termination.

7.

               Assignability. The Performance Shares, including any interest therein, shall not be transferable or assignable, except as permitted in accordance with Section 11 of the Plan.

8.

               Securities Laws Requirements.

9.

               Detrimental Activity. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, if the Employee, either during employment by the Company or a Subsidiary or within six (6) months after termination of such employment, shall engage in any Detrimental Activity, and the Board shall so find, forthwith upon notice of such finding, the Employee shall:

 

(a)

               return to the Company, in exchange for payment by the Company of any amount actually paid therefore by the Employee, all Common Shares that the Employee has not disposed of that were issued pursuant to this Agreement within a period of one (1) year prior to the date of the commencement of such Detrimental Activity, and

 

(b)

               with respect to any Common Shares so acquired that the Employee has disposed of, pay to the Company in cash the difference between:

 

(i)

               any amount actually paid therefore by the Employee pursuant to this Agreement, and

 

(ii)

               the Market Value Per Share of the Common Shares on the date of such acquisition.

To the extent that such amounts are not paid to the Company, the Company may set off the amounts so payable to it against any amounts that may be owing from time to time by the Company or a Subsidiary to the Employee, whether as wages, deferred compensation or vacation pay or in the form of any other benefit or for any other reason. The Company shall not enforce remedies upon occurrence of a Detrimental Activity against Employee in excess of or beyond restrictions or limitations under applicable law.

10.

               Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any payment made or benefit realized by the Employee or other person under this Agreement, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it will be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such benefit that the Employee or such other person make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld, which arrangements (in the discretion of the Board) may include relinquishment of a portion of such benefit.

 

-7-

11.

               No Right to Employment. The Plan and this Agreement will not confer upon the Employee any right with respect to the continuance of employment or other service with the Company or any Subsidiary and will not interfere in any way with any right that the Company or any Subsidiary would otherwise have to terminate any employment or other service of the Employee at any time. For purposes of this Agreement, the continuous employ of the Employee with the Company or a Subsidiary shall not be deemed interrupted, and the Employee shall not be deemed to have ceased to be an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary by reason of (a) the transfer of his or her employment among the Company and its Subsidiaries or (b) an approved leave of absence.

12.

               Relation to Other Benefits. Any economic or other benefit to the Employee under this Agreement or the Plan will not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which the Employee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a Subsidiary and will not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a Subsidiary.

13.

               Intergrated Agreement. This Agreement shall consist of its terms and those terms of the Plan which are relevant to this Agreement and both shall be read together.

15.

               Amendments. Any amendment to the Plan will be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment will adversely affect the rights of the Employee under this Agreement without the Employee’s consent.

16.

               Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated will be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof will continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

18.

               Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company will not be obligated to issue any Common Shares in payment of any vested Performance Shares pursuant to this Agreement if the issuance thereof would result in a violation of any laws.
