Item 11. Executive Compensation
 
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of our executive officers should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures in this filing.
     
Our compensation committee is responsible for establishing and implementing our compensation philosophy.  We seek to ensure that the total compensation paid to our executive officers is fair, reasonable and competitive.  Our compensation committee is appointed by our board of directors.  Under the compensation committee charter, our compensation committee has responsibility for determining the compensation for our chief executive officer, for any other executive office who serves on the Board and for any of our other executive officers with a base salary of $200,000 or more.  Our compensation committee also approves equity grants under our long-term incentive plan.

Our named executive officers for 2013 were:
Maurice J. Gallgher, Jr.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Andrew C. Levy
President, Chief Operating Officer and Director
Scott Sheldon
Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer
Scott M. Allard
Senior Vice President, Chief Information Officer
Jude I. Bricker
Senior Vice President, Planning
 
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
 
The primary objectives of the compensation committee of our board of directors with respect to executive compensation are to retain the executive team that has been in place for several years, to attract additional talented people to become employed, to provide annual cash incentives upon achievement of measurable corporate performance objectives, and to assure executives' incentives are aligned with stockholder value creation. To achieve these objectives, the compensation committee maintains compensation plans that tie a significant portion of executives' total compensation to our financial performance (specifically to our operating margin). Overall, the total compensation opportunity is intended to create an executive compensation program: (i) providing for base compensation at reasonable levels, and (ii) rewarding our named executive officers for profitable performance and increased share value.

Our chief executive officer, Maurice J. Gallagher, Jr., has a substantial equity position. Historically, he has chosen to serve without any base salary whatsoever and expects to continue to serve without base salary into the future. In 2013, the compensation committee decided not to include Mr. Gallagher in the allocation of the cash bonus pool but granted him stock-based awards to reward him for our company's industry-leading profit margins.  Whether Mr. Gallagher will participate in future equity grants and the annual cash bonus will be determined in the discretion of the compensation committee from year to year and will depend on our profitability in relation to our expectations and other relevant factors.

     Although we do not benchmark total compensation or any material element of compensation against any other particular company or group of companies, we do consider executive compensation and operating margin levels at other airlines and on-line travel agencies in gauging the reasonableness of each element of the compensation package for our executive officers.  In particular, in determining cash bonus allocations and equity grants, we compare our executive compensation against averages of other airlines and on-line travel agencies in base salary levels, cash bonus amounts, cash bonus as a percentage of base salary, value of equity awards and total compensation in dollar amounts and in relation to the operating margin achieved by each company.  As we are focused on low costs as a company, our philosophy is to provide for lower than industry prevailing rates of base compensation but with opportunity to benefit from profitable operations in the form of cash bonuses and from stock value increases through equity awards.  The compensation philosophy employed has been implemented by us without use of any outside compensation consultants.

As our stockholders approved our executive pay policies by a wide margin at our 2011 stockholders meeting, we have not implemented any changes to our pay policies in response to the stockholder vote.
 
Mr. Gallagher makes recommendations to the compensation committee with respect to the portion of the cash bonus pool payable and granting of stock-based awards to other executive officers. The compensation committee typically asks Mr. Gallagher to participate in its deliberations concerning approval of cash bonuses payable to and stock awards granted to these executive officers.

1



Mr. Gallagher and Andrew Levy, our president, chief operating officer and director, participate in making recommendations to the compensation committee with respect to the total amount of cash bonuses to be paid, the allocation of the bonus pool among other officers and key employees of our company and the granting of stock-based awards to other officers and key employees.

     The compensation committee members consider the recommendations from management and also draw on the committee members' and the chief executive officer's substantial experience in managing companies in approving bonus levels and stock-based awards.

     We structure our executive compensation program to deliver the majority of remuneration through incentives that drive both operating results and long-term value.  During 2013, the substantial majority of each executive officer’s pay was at risk as more than 80% of each executive’s pay was payable under the cash bonus plan or long-term stock incentives.  The mix of components comprising 2013 compensation for the named executive officers in this filing is illustrated below:

Compensation Components

Compensation is broken out into the following components:
 
Base Salary.  Mr. Gallagher does not receive a base salary. In February 2013, Mr. Levy entered into a new employment agreement which provided for an increase in his base salary. As no other executive officer has a base salary of $200,000 or more, the base salary levels of other officers do not require compensation committee approval.

     Annual Discretionary Incentive Bonus Program.  We structure our annual bonus compensation program to reward named executive officers, other management employees (our vice presidents, director level employees and managers) and other employees for our successful performance and each individual's contribution to that performance. Depending on our profitability, cash bonuses may constitute a significant portion of our employees' total compensation. No cash bonus is earned unless our operating income exceeds 5% of our revenue for the year and, in that event, the total cash bonus pool will not exceed 10% of operating income. The final annual bonus pool amount is determined by our compensation committee after consideration of management recommendations and after the completion of the audit of our financial statements. The allocation of the bonus pool among groups of eligible employees and, for executive officers and other key employees, the division of the incentive compensation between cash and equity grants, are approved by the compensation committee without regard to any objective, predetermined individual performance criteria. The compensation committee relies significantly on the recommendation of our chief executive officer with respect to the participation level of our president and on executive management recommendations with respect to the bonus allocations for other employee groups and equity grants for other officers and managers.

     For financial statement reporting purposes, the bonus is accrued throughout each year based on an estimated payment amount. Under our program, our named executive officers are eligible to share in the bonus pool in amounts determined after the end of each year. Compensation committee approval is required for bonuses payable to our chief executive officer, other executive officers on the Board (Andrew Levy) and any other executive officers with an annual base salary of $200,000 or more (there are no others at this time).  Generally, payments under this cash bonus program are contingent upon continued employment through the actual date of payment.

Long-Term Incentive Program.  We believe long-term performance is achieved through an equity ownership culture that encourages long-term performance by our executive officers. Although our chief executive officer maintains a substantial

2


equity stake in our company, the compensation committee has decided to provide him with grants of stock-based awards to reward him for the successful operating results of our company and to further incentivize him to seek additional stock price growth.

The compensation committee considers stock-based awards as part of the discretionary incentive program to our executive officers each year at the time the cash bonus allocations are finalized after the completion of the audit for the year.  Strike prices for options or stock appreciation rights (SARs) are established based on the market value of our stock at the time of grant when the final compensation decisions are made for the year.  This will typically occur in February or March following the end of each year.  Other than this annual evaluation of stock-based grants, we would typically only consider additional stock-based grants coincident with a new hire or promotion of management personnel.
     
Stock-based awards vest over a three year period to encourage continuing employment by the executive officers.  Grants of stock options and stock appreciation rights have a five year term to further encourage the officers to seek stock value appreciation over a period of time.

     The awards are set at amounts determined by the compensation committee to achieve a balance between meaningful incentives to our executive officers and reasonable compensation expense for our company. The compensation committee considers the current value of prior and newly granted awards, but does not target any particular weighting in comparison with the total compensation of each executive officer. Nor do we have a policy or target for the allocation between either cash and non-cash compensation or short-term and long-term incentive compensation.  However, in determining 2013 compensation for all executive officers other than our chief executive officer, the compensation committee approved payment of approximately 50% in cash and 50% in the value of equity grants.  Our chief executive officer received substantially all of his compensation for 2013 in the form of equity grants.

     In March 2013, equity grants were awarded to executive officers as part of their 2012 compensation package.

     In March 2014, we granted equity awards, consisting of restricted stock and stock options, to our named executive officers as part of their 2013 compensation package.  As all of these equity awards provide for a three-year vesting period, the compensation to the executive officers remains at risk subject to their continuing employment with us.  In the case of equity awards constituting a portion of the incentive compensation for all of our officers for 2013, 40% to 50% of the value of the equity awards was granted in the form of stock options, the entire value of which is at risk since the value of these equity grants will be based on appreciation in our stock price.  This further aligns our officers’ interests with the objective of increasing value to our stockholders.

     The compensation committee also considers the impact each equity grant will have on the future earnings of our company and dilution of our stockholders. The stock grants during the past several years have not been dilutive to our stockholders as the number of shares of stock repurchased by us in the open market under our stock repurchase plans has far exceeded the number of shares subject to equity grants under our long-term incentive plan.

     We do not have any guidelines for security ownership of management, nor do we restrict any individual executive’s ability to hedge the economic risk of stock ownership.

     Other Compensation.  Our officers participate in employee benefits generally available to our full-time employees. We have no current plans to make changes to the levels of benefits and perquisites provided for our named executive officers.

     401(k) Plan.  We maintain a 401(k) retirement plan that qualifies as a defined contribution plan under Internal Revenue Code section 401(a) and includes a cash or deferred arrangement that qualifies under Code Section 401(k). The plan was established and is maintained for the exclusive benefit of our eligible employees and their beneficiaries. We make matching contributions for active participants equal to 100% of their permitted contributions, up to a maximum of 5% of the participant's annual salary. Eligible employees are immediately 100% vested in their individual contributions and “safe harbor” matching contributions.

     Compensation Risk. The compensation committee has determined that our compensation programs do not pose significant risk to our company as management’s interests are aligned with those of our stockholders.  Except for those employee groups with whom we have reached a separate agreement on compensation, all employees are eligible to participate in the cash bonus program such that employees in any group or function are not included to the exclusion of employees in any other group or function. Further, the bonus pool depends on company-wide profitability such that rewards are based on the common goal of profitability. While the cash bonus program encourages short-term profitability, equity based grants to management employees under the long-term incentive plan encourage long-term success further reducing compensation risk.

Current Frequency of Shareholder Advisory Votes on the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers. Our board of directors has determined to include a stockholder advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers in our proxy materials every three years.  In making this determination, our board considered the outcome of the “say on pay frequency” advisory vote at the 2011 stockholders’ meeting. Although a slight majority of the votes of our stockholders were cast at the 2011 annual meeting in favor of holding an annual, non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, more than 46% of the votes cast on the non-binding advisory “say on pay frequency” proposal were voted in favor of holding the non-binding advisory “say on pay” vote every three years. Further, our board considered (i) the advantage of a longer term perspective that a triennial vote would bring, in light of the significant equity component of our compensation program with vesting over three or more years, the value of which is directly linked to share price performance; (ii)  that a vote every three years provides a longer term compensation history and business performance track record against which to measure management's strategic long-term business decisions and more frequent votes may focus undue attention on the particular year being reported as opposed to the longer term focus we are seeking to achieve through our compensation policies; and (iii) the approval of our compensation program evidenced by the stockholders’ 2011 advisory “say on pay” vote on compensation.

As the last stockholder advisory vote on executive compensation was in 2011, a stockholder advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers will occur at this year’s annual meeting of stockholders.  The next required say on pay frequency vote is currently scheduled for our 2017 annual meeting of stockholders.

In conjunction with this year’s stockholder advisory vote on compensation of our executive officers and to present a longer-term view of executive compensation consistent with our decision to have a stockholder advisory vote every three years, the following table provides information regarding our financial performance and executive compensation for our top two officers over the preceding three-year period:

The above tables do not include a column for change in pension value and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings as none of the named executive officers received any such compensation in the years disclosed.  Cash bonuses are reported in the year to which they relate, but are paid no later than the end of the first quarter of the following year.  Equity grants constituting part of the incentive bonus plan are reported in this table in the year to which they relate.  Other equity grants are reported in the year of grant. In our 2012 proxy statement reporting 2011 compensation, we reported all equity grants as compensation in the year of grant. We changed to the current presentation last year to better portray the compensation package received by our named executive officers with respect to each year. As we adjusted the 2011 compensation reflected in the above summary compensation table to be consistent with the presentations for 2012 and 2013, the above table will not reflect the same equity compensation amounts for 2011 which were reported in our 2012 proxy statement.

For the assumptions used for purposes of determining the value of these awards included in each year's compensation, please refer to Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. Although the table above indicates the full grant date value of the awards in the year which the compensation is considered, the options and SARs granted vest over a three-year period.

All Other Compensation consists of our matching contributions under the 401(k) plan for all officers and cash dividends paid in 2013 and 2012 on shares of unvested restricted stock.  No dividends were paid in 2011 on shares of unvested restricted stock.  No amount is included in this column for the value of all perquisites and personal benefits, including flight benefits, as these benefits did not exceed $10,000 for any executive officer.

Mr. Allard was hired as our senior vice president, chief information officer in March 2011. The salary shown for Mr. Allard for 2011 is for the period from his hire date in March 2011 through the end of the year.
 
Mr. Gallagher serves without base compensation as a result of his substantial equity interest.  In 2013 and 2012, Mr. Gallagher received equity grants and an allocation under our annual cash bonus program in 2012 as a reward for our profitability achievements.
 
Mr. Levy’s base salary was established at $350,000 per year in connection with the new employment agreement entered into in February 2013. Under the employment agreement entered into at that time, Mr. Levy received grants of restricted stock and stock options reflected in the table of plan-based awards below, participates in our annual bonus program and is eligible to participate in future equity grants.
 
Mr. Sheldon’s base salary was established upon the recommendation of executive management and is reviewed from year to year.  Mr. Bricker’s base salary was increased to $175,000 per year upon his promotion to senior vice president, planning in May 2012 and is reviewed from year to year. Mr. Allard's base salary level was based on negotiations at the time of his employment in March 2011 and is reviewed from year to year.
 
The compensation committee is to approve all base salary, bonus payments and other compensation payments to executive officers serving on our board of directors and to any other officers making $200,000 or more per year in base salary.
 
For 2013, each executive officer received a bonus under our annual discretionary incentive bonus program.  No bonus is earned unless our operating income exceeds 5% of our revenue for the year and, in that event, the bonus pool will not exceed 10% of operating income.  The final bonus pool amount is determined by our compensation committee after review of the year-end financial statements and after consideration of management recommendations.  Each executive officer’s allocation of the bonus pool is determined by the compensation committee without regard to any objective, predetermined individual performance criteria.  The bonus allocation for any executive officer is not targeted at or limited to any particular percentage of base salary.  In determining 2013 compensation for our executive officers other than our chief executive officer, the compensation committee approved payment of 50% or more in the value of equity grants and the balance in cash.  The equity grants were split between restricted stock and stock options.

In 2013 and 2012, other compensation included cash dividends paid on unvested restricted stock.  No dividends were paid in 2011 on shares of unvested restricted stock. Other compensation also includes matching contributions under our 401(k) plan.  The amount of matching contribution paid for each executive officer depends on his salary reductions.
 
No executive officer’s salary and bonus is tied to any particular percentage of total compensation, but rather, bonus allocations are made based on our profitability and a subjective evaluation of each officer’s performance.

Grant of restricted stock.
 
 
 
(2
)
As determined as set forth in Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements. Although the table above indicates the full grant date value of the awards, the restricted stock, stock option and SAR awards granted vest over a three-year period.
 
 
 
(3
)
All equity grants on March 8, 2013 were part of 2012 compensation and are reflected as such in the summary compensation table.
 
 
 
(4
)
Each of these awards consists of a grant of SARs which may only be settled in cash at the time of exercise.
 
Our compensation committee considers grants of restricted stock, stock options and SARs to our executive officers annually.  The number of shares granted is not based on any particular percentage of the total compensation of the executive officer.  Our compensation committee determines the amount of equity grants in an attempt to provide meaningful incentives for the officers, but with consideration to the financial impact on our operating results.
 
The restricted stock, stock options and SARs granted to our executive officers in 2013 are subject to a three-year vesting schedule to encourage continued employment by the executive officers and the stock options and SARs have a five year term to provide incentives to create stock price appreciation over that period.
 
The grants of restricted stock, stock options and SARs in March 2013 are considered to be part of the compensation of our executive officers for 2012.  In March 2014, we granted to our executive officers shares of restricted stock and stock options as part of their 2013 compensation package.  The value of these grants is reflected in the summary compensation table above as part of each executive officer’s 2013 compensation.  The value of the equity grants in March 2013 is reflected in the summary compensation table above as part of each executive officer’s 2012 compensation.

Employee Benefit Plans
Long-Term Incentive Plan
Our Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) was adopted by our board of directors and approved by the stockholders in 2006. All outstanding options under the predecessor Allegiant Air 2004 Share Option Plan have been transferred to our 2006 Plan, and no further stock-based awards will be made under that predecessor plan. The transferred options continue to be governed by their existing terms. Except as otherwise noted below, the transferred options have substantially the same terms as grants made under our 2006 Plan.
 
We have reserved 3,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under our 2006 Plan. Such share reserve consists of 500,000 shares that were carried over from our predecessor plan, including the shares subject to outstanding options thereunder. In addition, no participant in our 2006 Plan may be granted stock-based awards for more than 100,000 shares of our common stock per calendar year.
 
The individuals eligible to participate in our 2006 Plan include our officers and other employees, our non-employee board members and any consultants we engage.
 
Our 2006 Plan is administered by the compensation committee. This committee determines which eligible individuals are to receive stock-based awards, the time or times when such stock-based awards are to be made, the number of shares subject to each such grant, the status of any granted option as either an incentive stock option or a non-statutory stock option under the federal tax laws, and the terms and conditions of each award including, without limitation, the vesting schedule to be in effect for the option grant or stock issuance and the maximum term for which any granted option is to remain outstanding, provided that no option term may exceed ten years measured from the date of grant.
 
Vesting of any option grant is contingent on continued service with us. Upon the cessation of an optionee’s service, any unvested options will terminate and will be forfeited. Any vested, but unexercised options (i) will terminate immediately if the optionee is terminated for misconduct, or (ii) if the cessation of service is other than for misconduct, will remain exercisable for such period of time as determined by the compensation committee at the time of grant and set forth in the documents evidencing the option. The compensation committee has the discretion, however, at any time while the option remains outstanding to (i) extend the period of time that the option may be exercisable following the cessation of an optionee’s service (but not beyond the term of the option) and (ii) permit the optionee to exercise following a cessation of service options that were not vested at the time of the cessation of service.
 
The exercise price for the shares of the common stock subject to option grants made under our 2006 plan may be paid in cash or in shares of common stock valued at fair market value on the exercise date.
 
The compensation committee has the authority to cancel outstanding options under our option plan, in return for the grant of new options for the same or a different number of option shares with an exercise price per share based upon the fair market value of our common stock on the new grant date.
 
In the event we are acquired by a merger, a sale by our stockholders of more than 50% of our outstanding voting stock or a sale of all or substantially all of our assets, each outstanding option under our option plan which will not be assumed by the successor corporation or otherwise continued in effect may accelerate in full to the extent provided in the applicable stock option agreement. However, the compensation committee has complete discretion to structure any or all of the options under the option plan so those options will (or may not) immediately vest in the event we are acquired, whether or not those options

10


are assumed by the successor corporation or otherwise continued in effect. Alternatively, the compensation committee may condition such accelerated vesting upon the subsequent termination of the optionee’s service with us or the acquiring entity.
 
We intend that any compensation deemed paid by us in connection with the exercise of options or stock appreciation rights granted under our 2006 Plan for the disposition of the shares purchased or acquired under those options or stock appreciation rights will be regarded as “performance-based,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and that such compensation will not be subject to the annual $1 million limitation on the deductibility of compensation paid to covered executive officers which otherwise would be imposed pursuant to Section 162(m).
 
For accounting purposes, compensation expense related to equity based awards under the 2006 Plan is measured and recognized in accordance with stock-based compensation accounting standards.
 
Our board may amend or modify the 2006 Plan at any time, subject to any required stockholder approval, or participant consent. The 2006 Plan will terminate no later than March 31, 2016.

Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment and Change in Control
 
Under his 2013 employment agreement, Mr. Levy would receive a lump sum severance pay of $650,000 in the event of termination without cause or resignation for good reason. In addition, he would continue to receive fringe benefits for a 24-month period.  In addition, any unvested equity grants, including restricted stock, stock options and SARs, would vest immediately upon a termination without cause, resignation for good reason or change in control.  If such a termination, resignation or change of control had occurred on December 31, 2013, Mr. Levy would have realized approximately $6,164,869 from an acceleration of vesting of his theretofore unvested restricted stock (31,122 shares), unvested options (95,396 shares) and cash-settled SARs (9,190 shares) held as of December 31, 2013, based on the $105.44 closing stock price on that date.

Director Compensation
The members of our board of directors receive an annual retainer of $20,000 per year plus an additional $5,000 for each meeting attended and will also be reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses.
 
Any new director will receive an initial grant of 1,000 shares of restricted stock on the date such individual joins the board. The restricted stock will vest over a period of two years upon the director’s completion of each year of board service over the two-year period measured from the grant date.
 
In addition, on the date of each annual stockholders meeting, each board member (other than executive officers) who is to continue to serve as a board member will automatically be granted 1,000 shares of restricted stock, provided such individual has served on our board for at least six months. The restricted shares subject to each annual automatic grant will vest upon the director’s completion of one year of board service measured from the grant date.
