2007 Actions Under Incentive Compensation Plans
On April 24, 2007, the Compensation and Organization Committee of the Board of Directors of the registrant (the “Committee”) established corporate performance objectives for the 2007-2010 Award Period for incentive compensation awards under the registrant’s Executive Strategic Incentive Plan I (the “ESI Plan”). The objectives consist of specific Cash Flow Return on Gross Capital and Earnings Per Share targets, weighted equally. Participants in the ESI Plan include, among other key executives, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President — Chief Financial and Planning Officer and the four other executive officers named in the summary compensation table of the registrant’s 2007 Proxy Statement. The ESI Plan is filed as Exhibit 10(w) to the registrant’s Form 10-K Report for the year ended December 31, 2006. Awards, if any, for the 2007-2010 Award Period under the ESI Plan will be paid in 2011 in cash (unless the participant previously filed a deferral of receipt election with the registrant). The actual amount of the awards will depend upon the performance of the registrant against the established corporate performance objectives and a discretionary assessment of the participant’s performance over the four-year Award Period.

 


 

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
