PROXY STATEMENT FOR 2016

ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

This proxy statement and the accompanying form of proxy are first being sent to our shareholders on or about March 23, 2016 in connection with the solicitation by our Board of Directors of proxies to be used at our 2016 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held on Friday, May 6, 2016, at 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) at the offices of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us”), 10055 Seminole Boulevard, Seminole, Florida 33772.

Our Board of Directors has designated Michael Benstock and Alan Schwartz, and each or any of them, as proxies to vote the shares of common stock solicited on its behalf. If you sign and return the accompanying form of proxy, you may nevertheless revoke it at any time before it is exercised by (1) giving timely written notice to our Corporate Secretary, (2) timely delivering a later dated proxy, or (3) attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. The shares represented by your proxy will be voted unless the proxy is mutilated or otherwise received in such form or at such time as to render it not votable. Proxies will be tabulated by Alliance Advisors.

If the Annual Meeting is adjourned for any reason, at any subsequent reconvening of the Annual Meeting all proxies may be voted in the same manner as the proxies would have been voted at the original convening of the Annual Meeting (except for any proxies that have been properly revoked or withdrawn).

The close of business on March 2, 2016 has been designated as the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”). As of March 2, 2016, 13,986,952 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), were issued and outstanding. Each shareholder will be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock registered in his or her name on the books of the Company on the close of business on the Record Date for the Annual Meeting on all matters that come before the Annual Meeting.

INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS

Under rules approved by the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company is furnishing proxy materials on the Internet in addition to mailing paper copies of the materials to each shareholder of record. Instructions on how to access and review the proxy materials on the Internet can be found on the proxy card and on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) sent to shareholders who hold their shares in “street name” (i.e. in the name of a broker, bank or other record holder). The Notice will also include instructions for shareholders who hold their shares in street name on how to access the proxy card to vote over the Internet. Voting over the Internet will not affect your right to vote in person if you decide to attend the Annual Meeting.

All shareholders should refer to their proxy card or their Notice for their viewing, voting and hard copy ordering needs, which may include Internet and telephone voting options.

INTERNET ACCESS OR ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF FUTURE PROXY MATERIALS

If you have previously signed up to receive shareholder materials, including proxy statements and annual reports by mail, you may choose to receive these materials by accessing the Internet in the future, which can help us achieve a substantial reduction in our printing and mailing costs as well as be environmentally friendly. If you choose to receive your proxy materials by accessing the Internet, then before next year’s annual meeting, you will receive a Notice when the proxy materials and annual report are available over the Internet.

Your election to receive your proxy materials by accessing the Internet will remain in effect for all future shareholder meetings unless you revoke it before the meeting by contacting John Lacy at our offices at 10055 Seminole Boulevard, Seminole, Florida 33772, phone: (727) 397-9611, ext. 1309.

If you hold your shares in an account at a brokerage firm or bank participating in a “street name” program, you can sign up for delivery of proxy materials in the future by contacting your broker.

HOUSEHOLDING

The Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules permit us to deliver a single set of annual meeting materials to one address shared by two or more of our shareholders. This delivery method is referred to as “householding” and can result in significant cost savings. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have delivered only one Notice or proxy statement and annual report, as applicable, to multiple shareholders who share an address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted shareholders prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the Notice, proxy statement or annual report, as applicable, to any shareholder at a shared address to which a single copy of those documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the Notice, proxy statement or annual report (with respect to the Annual Meeting or in the future), contact John Lacy at our offices at 10055 Seminole Boulevard, Seminole, Florida, 33772, phone: (727) 397-9611, ext. 1309.

If you are currently a shareholder sharing an address with another shareholder and wish to receive only one copy of future Notices, proxy statements or annual reports for your household, please contact John Lacy at our offices at 10055 Seminole Boulevard, Seminole, Florida 33772, phone: (727) 397-9611, ext. 1309.

VOTING SECURITIES

Quorum

The Company’s existing Bylaws (the “Existing Bylaws”) provide that the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date and entitled to vote must be present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting in order to have a quorum for the transaction of business. If adopted, the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “New Bylaws”) would contain the same provision. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Shares held by brokers, banks or other nominees for beneficial owners (which we refer to as “brokers”) will also be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present if the broker has the discretion to vote on at least one of the matters presented, even though the broker may not exercise discretionary voting power with respect to other matters and even though voting instructions have not been received from the beneficial owner (a “broker non-vote”). Brokers have discretionary voting power with respect to the ratification of the appointment of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as independent auditors for 2016.

Votes Required

For Proposal 1, if a quorum is present, the six nominees for director receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares present or represented and entitled to be voted for them shall be elected as directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the vote on such proposal.

The approval of Proposal 2 requires that the number of votes cast in favor of the proposal exceed the number of votes cast against the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the vote on such proposal.

The approval of Proposal 3 requires that the number of votes cast in favor of the proposal exceed the number of votes cast against the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the vote on such proposal.

The approval of Proposal 4 requires that the number of votes cast in favor of the proposal exceed the number of votes cast against the proposal. In order to ratify the appointment of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as independent auditors for 2016, abstentions will be disregarded and will not be counted as votes for or against such proposal. However, since brokers may exercise discretionary voting power with respect to this proposal, a shareholder’s failure to provide voting instructions will not prevent a broker vote and can therefore affect the outcome of the auditor ratification proposal.

We note that your broker will NOT be able to vote your shares with respect to Proposals 1, 2 or 3 if you have not provided voting instructions to your broker. We strongly encourage you to complete and submit your proxy card and exercise your right to vote as a shareholder.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS (Proposal 1)

The Existing Bylaws (and the New Bylaws, if adopted) set the size of the Board of Directors at not less than three nor more than nine members. The size of the Board of Directors is currently set at six members. As described below, the Board of Directors is nominating six (6) Directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors determined to maintain its current size of six members, and, as it deems appropriate, seek to fill the vacancies resulting from nominating fewer nominees than authorized by the Company’s Bylaws. Directors generally hold their positions until the Annual Meeting at which time their term expires and their respective successors are duly elected and qualified.

The Board of Directors recommends that six (6) Directors be elected at the Annual Meeting to hold office until the Company's Annual Meeting in 2017 and until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation, removal from office or death. The persons designated as nominees for election as director to serve the term described above are Sidney Kirschner, Michael Benstock, Alan D. Schwartz, Robin M. Hensley, Paul Mellini and Todd Siegel. See "Management - Directors and Executive Officers" for further information on such nominees. In the event any of the nominees should be unable to serve, which is not anticipated, the Board of Directors may designate substitute nominees, in which event the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote for such other person or persons for the office of Director as the Board of Directors may recommend.

Shareholders may vote for up to six (6) nominees and the six (6) nominees receiving the highest number of votes shall be elected. Shareholders may not vote cumulatively in the election of Directors.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” each of the nominees.

The following family relationships exist among the Company's Directors, nominees and executive officers. Michael Benstock and Peter Benstock are sons of Gerald M. Benstock, and Alan D. Schwartz is his son-in-law.

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND ROLE IN RISK OVERSIGHT

The Board does not have a policy on whether or not the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board should be separate and, if they are to be separate, whether the Chairperson of the Board should be selected from the non-employee Directors or be an employee. The Board believes that it should be free to make a choice from time to time in any manner that is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Sidney Kirschner serves as Chairperson of the Board and Michael Benstock serves as a Director and Chief Executive Officer. The Board of Directors believes this is the most appropriate structure for the Company at this time because it makes the best use of both individuals’ skills and experiences.

Companies face a variety of risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, and operational risk. In fulfilling its risk oversight role, the Board focuses on the adequacy of the Company’s risk management process and overall risk management system. The Board believes an effective risk management system will (1) adequately identify the material risks that the Company faces in a timely manner, (2) implement appropriate risk management strategies that are responsive to the Company’s risk profile and specific material risk exposures, (3) integrate consideration of risk and risk management into business decision-making throughout the Company, and (4) include policies and procedures that adequately transmit necessary information with respect to material risks to senior executives and, as appropriate, to the Board or relevant committee.

The full Board also periodically receives information about the Company’s risk management system and the most significant risks that the Company faces. This is principally accomplished through management reports to the Board. The Board strives to generate serious and thoughtful attention to the Company’s risk management process and system, the nature of the material risks the Company faces, and the adequacy of the Company’s policies and procedures designed to respond to and mitigate these risks.

The Board encourages management to promote a corporate culture that understands risk management and incorporates it into the overall corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. The Company’s risk management structure also includes an ongoing effort to assess and analyze the most likely areas of future risk for the Company. As a result, the Board periodically asks the Company’s executives to discuss the most likely sources of material future risks and how the Company is addressing any significant potential vulnerability.

DIRECTOR COMMITTEES AND MEETINGS

The Board of Directors held six (6) meetings during 2015. In 2015, each incumbent Director who was a director in 2015 attended at least 75% of all meetings of the Board and of each committee of which he/she was a member. The Company expects all members of the Board to attend the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders barring other significant commitments or special circumstances. All of the Company’s Board members who were directors at the time attended the Company’s 2015 annual meeting of shareholders.

The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee. The Company also has a standing Capital Committee and Executive Committee.

The Board has determined that Mr. Sidney Kirschner, Ms. Robin M. Hensley, Mr. Paul Mellini, and Mr. Todd Siegel are independent, as that term is defined by the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC® (“NASDAQ”). The Board has further determined that all members of the Audit, Compensation, and Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics are independent and satisfy the relevant Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ independence requirements and other requirements for members of such committees.

The Board conducts an annual self-evaluation and an annual evaluation of the Audit Committee.

Audit Committee

The current members of the Audit Committee are Ms. Robin Hensley, Chairperson, and Messrs. Sidney Kirschner and Paul Mellini. The Audit Committee, which was established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling the Board’s responsibilities relating to safeguarding of assets and oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing and reporting practices of the Company. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent, as that term is defined in NASDAQ listing standards applicable to audit committee members. The Board has also determined that Robin Hensley qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee met four (4) times during 2015. The Audit Committee has a charter, which may be found on our website at www.superioruniformgroup.com under Investor Information.

 The Audit Committee conducts an annual self-evaluation.

Compensation Committee

The current members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Sidney Kirschner, Chairperson, and Paul Mellini. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Compensation Committee is independent as defined by NASDAQ listing standards applicable to compensation committee members. The Compensation Committee met two (2) times during 2015. The Compensation Committee has a charter, which can be found on our website at www.superioruniformgroup.com under Investor Information.

The duties and responsibilities of the Compensation Committee include to:

● determine and approve the compensation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer;

● make recommendations to the Board with respect to executive compensation for executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer;

● review, approve, and administer incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans for executive officers, staff vice presidents, and director level employees;

● review the Company’s incentive compensation arrangements to determine whether they encourage excessive risk-taking, to review and discuss at least annually the relationship between risk management policies and practices and compensation, and to evaluate compensation policies and practices that could mitigate any such risk; and

● report regularly to the Board regarding its actions and make recommendations to the Board as appropriate.

Under its charter, the Compensation Committee may form and delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees, which in turn must consist of at least 2 members of the Compensation Committee.

Our Chief Executive Officer currently initiates the compensation discussions with the Compensation Committee, providing requests and seeking approval from the Committee and the Board of Directors before employment arrangements or bonus plans related to executives of the Company are finalized.  The Compensation Committee approves the annual incentive award for the Chief Executive Officer and each officer below the Chief Executive Officer level based on the Chief Executive Officer's recommendations. The Compensation Committee also reviews on an annual basis the compensation of directors for service on the Board and recommends changes to such compensation to the Board, which makes the ultimate decision on director compensation. In recommending director compensation, the Compensation Committee may take into account market studies performed by compensation consultants. For additional information regarding the Compensation Committee’s processes and procedures for determining executive and director compensation, please see the footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table and Director Compensation for 2015 in the section entitled “Executive and Director Compensation” below.

As part of its decision-making process, the Compensation Committee reviews compensation practices at peer companies in an effort to set total compensation levels that it believes are reasonably competitive. 

The Compensation Committee conducts an annual self-evaluation.

Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee

The current members of the Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee are Messrs. Paul Mellini, Chairperson, Sidney Kirschner, and Todd Siegel. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee is independent as defined by NASDAQ listing standards applicable to directors generally.

The Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee develops and recommends to the Board of Directors a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the Company. It also assists in identifying qualified individuals to become directors and recommends to the Board candidates for all director positions to be filled by the Board or by shareholders of the Company. The Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee held two (2) meetings during 2015. The Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee has a charter, which can be found on our website at www.superioruniformgroup.com under Investor Information.

The Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee has recommended the candidates to be nominated to stand for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting.

The Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee conducts an annual self-evaluation.

Capital Committee

The current members of the Capital Committee are Messrs. Todd Siegel, Chairperson, and Paul Mellini, both of whom are independent as defined by NASDAQ listing standards applicable to directors generally.

The Capital Committee carries out the capital-related responsibilities delegated by the Board. It also reviews and recommends to the Board policy regarding dividends and share repurchase. The Capital Committee did not meet in 2015, as it was not officially formed until November 6, 2015. The Capital Committee has a charter, which can be found on our website at www.superioruniformgroup.com under Investor Information.

The Capital Committee conducts an annual self-evaluation. It did not conduct a self-evaluation for 2015 due to the Committee’s formation late in the year.

Executive Committee

The current members of the Executive Committee are Messrs. Sidney Kirschner, Chairperson, Michael Benstock, and Alan D. Schwartz. The Executive Committee is authorized to act in place of the Board of Directors during periods between Board meetings. The Executive Committee did not hold any formal meetings during 2015. The Executive Committee acted by unanimous written consent on two (2) occasions during 2015. Each action taken by the Executive Committee pursuant to a unanimous written consent was subsequently reviewed and ratified by the Board of Directors.

Nominations of Directors

The Board selects the director nominees to stand for election at the Company’s annual meetings of shareholders and to fill vacancies occurring on the Board based on the recommendations of the Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee. In identifying and evaluating potential nominees to serve as directors, the Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee will examine each nominee on a case-by-case basis regardless of who recommended the nominee and take into account all factors it considers appropriate. However, the Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee believes the following minimum qualifications must be met by a director nominee to be recommended to the Board:

● Each director must display high personal and professional ethics, integrity and values.

● Each director must have the ability to exercise sound business judgment.

● Each director must be highly accomplished in his or her respective field, with broad experience at the executive and/or policy-making level in business, government, education, technology or public interest.

● Each director must be able to represent all shareholders of the Company and be committed to enhancing long-term shareholder value.

● One or more of the directors generally should be active or former chief executive officers of public or private companies or leaders of major organizations, including commercial, scientific, government, educational and other similar institutions.

● Directors should be selected so that the Board is a diverse body.

The Company believes that it is important for its Board to be comprised of individuals with diverse backgrounds, skills and experiences, and to ensure a fair representation of shareholder interests. To maintain a diverse mix of individuals, primary consideration is given to the depth and breadth of members’ business and civic experience in leadership positions, as well as their ties to the Company’s markets and other similar factors.

It identifies qualified potential candidates without regard to any candidate’s race, color, disability, gender, national origin, religion or creed.

The Company has a mandatory retirement policy for its directors. The policy states that:  No person shall be nominated by the Board of Directors to serve as a director after he or she has passed his or her 72nd birthday; except that anyone serving on the Board as of February 6, 2015, the date this policy is adopted, may remain on the Board until completion of the term that encompasses his or her 74th birthday or completion of the term that concludes at least five but no more than six years after this policy is adopted, whichever will result in a longer Board tenure.

The Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee will consider recommendations for directorships submitted by shareholders. Recommendations for consideration by the Corporate Governance, Nominating & Ethics Committee, including recommendations from shareholders of the Company, should be sent in writing to the Board of Directors, care of the Secretary of the Company, at the Company’s headquarters.

(3)    Stock-settled stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and options for our executive officers and other key employees are granted annually in conjunction with the review of the individual performance of our executive officers. This review takes place at the regularly scheduled meeting of the Compensation Committee, which is held in conjunction with the quarterly meeting of our Board in the first quarter of each year.

All such awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant as reported on NASDAQ.

(4)    The amounts in this column include incentive bonuses earned during the respective calendar year. These amounts are paid during February of the following year.

(5)    The Company provides the named executive officers with certain group life, health, medical and other non-cash benefits generally available to all salaried employees and not included in this column pursuant to SEC guidance, because they do not discriminate in scope, terms or operation in favor of executive officers. The amounts shown in this column include the following: matching contributions on 401(k) deferrals, insurance premiums for a Supplemental Medical Plan, which is a fully insured hospital and medical expense reimbursement plan covering certain key management employees and their dependents, and personal automobile use.

Executive Incentive Bonuses

Our annual executive incentive bonuses are intended to compensate officers for achieving our annual financial goals at corporate levels and for achieving measurable individual annual performance objectives. Our annual incentive bonus plan provides for a cash bonus, dependent upon the level of achievement of the stated corporate goals and personal performance goals, calculated as a percentage of the officer's base salary. The annual incentive bonus ties incentive compensation to net earnings per share as reported in the Company’s audited financial statements adjusted for certain items (“BEPS”). Under this plan, the Compensation Committee establishes a minimum BEPS target that must be reached before any bonuses are earned. The target BEPS is based upon the annually established financial growth plan and goal. The Compensation Committee also establishes for each participant in the Plan, including executive officers, individual incentive amounts (“TIA”) that may be earned, in whole or in part, depending upon whether the minimum BEPS target is reached and by how much it is exceeded during the fiscal year. At the minimum target BEPS level, the plan participants will earn a bonus equal to 20% of the TIA. For 2016, the target incentive awards (as a percentage of base salary) will be as follows: Chief Executive Officer, 50%; Chief Financial Officer, 40%; and President, 40%. These targets are consistent with the 2015 and 2014 percentages, except for the Chief Executive Officer’s percentage which was 40% in 2014.

The payout continues to increase as BEPS increases and there is no maximum bonus payment.   The BEPS level for 100% payout of the TIA in 2016 is equal to $0.82 per share.  The Company’s BEPS was $1.04 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and $0.99 for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Pension Benefits/Retirement Plans

Since 1942, the Company has had a retirement plan (the "Basic Plan") which has been qualified under the Internal Revenue Code. The Basic Plan is a "defined benefit" plan, with benefits normally beginning at age 65, is non-contributory by an employee, and the Company's contributions are not allocated to the account of any particular employee. All domestic employees of the Company (except employees included in a retirement plan negotiated as part of a union contract) are eligible to participate in the Basic Plan prior to June 30, 2013. After June 30, 2013, benefits are provided under a Defined Contribution Plan and the Basic Plan benefit accruals are frozen. The Company also commenced, effective November 1, 1994, the Superior Uniform Group, Inc. Supplemental Pension Plan (the "Supplemental Plan") which is available to certain eligible employees of the Company, including certain executive officers. Retirement benefits available under the Supplemental Plan are based on the same provisions as in the qualified plan but ignore the salary limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Service ($265,000 in 2015). The Supplemental Plan is not frozen.

The Supplemental Plan provides benefits based on years of service and earnings above and below the Covered Compensation Base (the wage bases on which maximum Social Security taxes are payable). The normal monthly retirement benefit is 17.5% of an employee's average monthly compensation during the highest paid five years of the ten years immediately preceding retirement up to his Covered Compensation Base plus 32.5% of such average monthly compensation in excess of his Covered Compensation Base, reduced in the event such employee has less than 25 years of service. An employee's compensation includes overtime pay, commissions and any bonus received and therefore includes executive officers’ compensation as described in the Salary and Bonus columns of the Summary Compensation Table shown above. There is no offset in retirement benefits for Social Security benefits or other retirement plans or statutory benefits. The Basic Plan was amended as of November 1, 1989. Prior to the amendment, the Basic Plan provided benefits based on years of service and earnings in excess of the Covered Compensation Base. Benefits accrued prior to November 1, 1989 under the Basic Plan would be paid, if higher than the sums set forth above.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

The Company had no nonqualified defined contribution or other nonqualified deferred compensation plans as of December 31, 2015 for which a named executive officer is eligible.

Termination or Change in Control Provisions

We have entered into retention agreements with each of our named executive officers. The retention agreements generally provide that, if within 24 months following a change in control the executive officer’s employment is terminated for reasons other than for cause (as defined in the retention agreement) or by the executive for good reason (as defined in the retention agreement, including the ability for the executive to make an election within a forty-five day period beginning 180 days after a change in control), we will make a lump-sum cash payment to the executive officer equal to two times the sum of the executive officer’s annual base salary at the rate in effect at the termination date or, if greater, the highest rate in effect at any time during the ninety day period prior to a change in control and the average of the annual cash bonuses paid to the executive during the three full fiscal years prior to the termination date or, if greater, the three full fiscal years immediately prior to the change in control date. The retention agreements also provide that, under such circumstances, we will continue to provide benefits to each executive for a period of two years after the date of his or her termination. Additionally, the agreements provide for each executive to be paid additional amounts under the Company’s defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans as though they were employed for an additional two years. The term of the agreements expired on November 23, 2015, but the agreements are subject to automatic one-year extensions unless the Company gives the executive officer prior notification. Such notice did not occur prior to inception of the most recent renewal period. As such, the agreements automatically renewed on November 24, 2015, and remain subject to automatic one-year extensions unless the Company gives the executive officer prior notification. The retention agreements are intended to promote stability and continuity of management should the Company consider a change in control transaction.

All such awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant as reported on NASDAQ, are exercisable six months from the date of grant, and generally expire ten years after the date of grant.

The shares are subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances as outlined in the 2013 Stock and Awards Plan.

All share and per share information in the footnotes to the above table has been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the 2-for-1 stock split effective on February 4, 2015.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS

The following table sets forth, as of the Record Date (except as noted), information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock by (i) each person known to the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company's Common Stock, (ii) each Director, (iii) each nominee for election as a Director, (iv) each named executive officer, and (v) all Directors and executive officers as a group.

(1)      The number of shares beneficially owned is determined under rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares which the individual has the right to acquire within 60 days after the Record Date through the exercise of any stock option or other right. Inclusion in the table of such shares, however, does not constitute an admission that the director, nominee, named executive officer or principal stockholder is a direct or indirect beneficial owner of such shares. Except as set forth herein, the persons listed have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares referred to in the table.

(2)    Represents shares held of record by Benstock-Superior Ltd., a Florida limited partnership ("Reporting Person").  The general partners of the Reporting Person are Susan B.

The voting and disposition of the Company's Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person requires approval of a majority of the General Partners pursuant to the limited partnership agreement of the Reporting Person.

In certain cases, subsidiaries of Dimensional Fund Advisors LP may act as an adviser or sub-adviser to certain Funds. In its role as investment adviser, sub-adviser and/or manager, Dimensional Fund Advisors LP or its subsidiaries (collectively, “Dimensional”) may possess voting and/or investment power over the securities of the Company that are owned by the Funds, and may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares of the Company held by the Funds. However, all securities reported in this schedule are owned of record by the Funds. Dimensional disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities.

Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it and written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that, during its most recently completed fiscal year ended on December 31, 2015, all Section 16(a) reports required to be filed by its officers, directors, and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were timely filed.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

Director and Officer Liability Insurance

As authorized by Section 607.0850(12) of the Florida Business Corporation Act, the Company maintains insurance to indemnify it and its Directors and officers from certain liabilities to the extent permitted by law. Such insurance, in the face amount of $12,000,000, was obtained pursuant to contracts dated August 27, 2015.  Under the terms of the contract, the Company paid an annual premium of $89,700 for the insurance.  During 2014, such insurance, in the face amount of $12,000,000, was obtained pursuant to contracts dated August 27, 2014. Under the terms of the contracts, the Company paid an annual premium of $91,618 for the insurance.  No sums have been paid or sought under any such indemnification insurance. 

Related Party Transactions

On December 17, 2012, the Company and its Chairman Emeritus, Mr. Gerald M. Benstock, entered into a separation, general release, non-compete, and advisory services agreement which contained a three-year term. During 2015, the agreement was extended for one additional year. The agreement is subject to early termination by either party. During each year of the term, Mr. Benstock will receive $150,000, plus payments for, or reimbursements of, certain pre-approved travel, lodging, entertainment, and business expenses. Under the agreement, Mr. Benstock also will retain access to an automobile leased for him by the Company for the remainder of the automobile’s term, and at the Company’s discretion thereafter for the remainder of the term of the agreement. During 2015 and 2014, Mr. Benstock also received additional consulting fees of $50,000 and $75,000, respectively, for consulting services related to discrete Company projects.

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (Proposal 2)

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, enacted in July 2010 and codified in Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires that we provide our shareholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executives officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We seek to closely align the interests of our named executive officers with the interests of our shareholders. Our compensation programs are designed to reward our named executive officers for the achievement of short-term and long-term strategic and operational goals and the achievement of increased total shareholder return, while at the same time avoiding the encouragement of unnecessary or excessive risk-taking.

The vote on this resolution is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this proxy statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The vote is advisory, which means that the vote is not binding on the Company, our Board of Directors, or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. To the extent there is any significant vote against our named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address the concerns of shareholders.

¹  The material in this report is not “soliciting material” and is not deemed “filed” with the SEC and is not to be incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares voted on Proposal 2 is required to approve this proposal.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

Accordingly, we ask our shareholders to vote on the following resolution at the Meeting:

RESOLVED, that the Company’s shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the 2015 compensation tables and any related material disclosed in the Proxy Statement .

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement.

Amended and RestateD Bylaws of the COMPANY (Proposal 3)

In February 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors completed a review of the Company’s existing bylaws (“Existing Bylaws”). The Existing Bylaws most recently were amended on February 28, 2011. As a result of that review, on February 5, 2016, the Board approved amended and restated bylaws of the Company (“New Bylaws”). The Existing Bylaws allow the Board to unilaterally adopt amendments to the Company’s bylaws without shareholder approval. Although the Board has the authority to effect the proposed changes to the Existing Bylaws without shareholder approval, the Company is seeking the approval by the Company’s shareholders of the proposed changes to the Existing Bylaws by the adoption of the New Bylaws.

The New Bylaws will provide the Company with added flexibility and protections that will enable it to conduct its business more effectively. The following chart describes the significant differences between the Existing Bylaws and the New Bylaws:

This description of the New Bylaws is a summary and is qualified by and subject to the full text of the New Bylaws, which is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.

Effect of Shareholder Vote:

If this Proposal 3 is approved by our shareholders, the New Bylaws will become effective upon approval. If this Proposal 3 is not approved by our shareholders, the Existing Bylaws will continue in effect although the Board of Directors will continue to have authority to adopt amendments to the Existing Bylaws without shareholder approval subject to the limitations of the Existing Bylaws.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the proposal to adopt the proposed Amended and Restated Bylaws.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS (Proposal 4)

Although the Audit Committee has the sole authority to appoint the independent auditors, the Audit Committee continues its long-standing practice of recommending that the Board ask the shareholders, at the Annual Meeting, to ratify the appointment of the independent auditors. The Audit Committee has appointed Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C., independent registered public accountants, to audit the financial statements of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2016.

Shareholder ratification of the Company's independent registered public accountants is not required by the Company's Existing Bylaws or otherwise, and would not be required under the New Bylaws, if adopted. The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have elected to seek such ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders do not ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee will consider the appointment of other auditors, but may also decide to retain Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as independent auditors for 2016. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may change the appointment at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The Company expects representatives of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. to be present and available to respond to appropriate questions at the 2016 Annual Meeting. Representatives of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. will have the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire.

Audit Fees and All Other Fees

The following table sets forth information regarding fees paid by the Company to Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. during 2015 and 2014:

Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C.
and CBIZ, Inc.	2015		2014
Audit Fees (1)	$	254,000	$	210,000
Tax Fees		10,000		10,000
Other Fees		-		-
Audit-Related Fees		-		-
Total Fees	$	264,000	$	220,000

(1) Fees for audit services include fees associated with the annual audits and quarterly reviews in 2015 and 2014. Tax Fees were billed for services including assistance with tax compliance and the preparation of tax returns and tax consultation services.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

The Audit Committee has concluded that Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.’s provision of the audit and non-audit services described above is compatible with maintaining Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.'s independence. The Audit Committee pre-approved all of such services. The Audit Committee has established pre-approval policies and procedures with respect to audit and non-audit services to be provided by its independent auditors. Pursuant to these policies and procedures, the Audit Committee may form, and delegate authority to, subcommittees consisting of one or more members when appropriate to grant such pre-approvals, provided that decisions of such subcommittee to grant pre-approvals are presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee's pre-approval policies do not permit the delegation of the Audit Committee's responsibilities to management.

Compensation of Independent Auditors’ Employees

Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. leases substantially all of its personnel, who work under the control of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. shareholders, from wholly-owned subsidiaries of CBIZ, Inc., in an alternative practice structure. As such, approximately 100% of the hours spent on the audit were by personnel who are not full time, permanent employees of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the proposal to ratify the appointment of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as our independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2016.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR

PRESENTATION AT THE 2017

ANNUAL MEETING

 In order for proposals of shareholders to be eligible for inclusion in our proxy materials relating to the annual meeting of shareholders in 2017 pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8, they must be submitted in writing to the Company’s Secretary and received by the Company at the Company’s executive offices at 10055 Seminole Boulevard, Seminole, Florida 33772 by November 23, 2016 (unless the date of the 2017 annual meeting is not within 30 days of May 6, 2017, in which case the deadline will be a reasonable time before we begin to print and send the proxy material for the 2017 annual meeting).

Notice to the Company of a shareholder proposal submitted outside of Rule 14a-8 will be considered timely under SEC Rule 14a-4(c) if received by the Company at the foregoing address (1) by February 6, 2017 if the shareholders do not adopt the proposed New Bylaws (unless the date of the 2017 annual meeting is not within 30 days of May 6, 2017, in which case the deadline will be a reasonable time before we send the proxy materials for the 2017 annual meeting), and (2) between December 7, 2016 and January 6, 2017, if the shareholders adopt the proposed New Bylaws (unless the 2017 annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 25 days of May 6, 2017, in which case the deadline will be the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which the notice of such annual meeting date was mailed or public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs). The procedure for nominating directors is described above under “Director Committees and Meetings – Nomination of Directors.” The proxy solicited by the Board for the 2017 annual meeting will confer discretionary authority to vote on behalf of the persons named in such proxy on any shareholder proposal as to which the Company does not receive timely notice.

If our shareholders adopt the proposed New Bylaws, in order for a shareholder to bring business before or propose director nominations at an annual meeting in accordance with our New Bylaws, the shareholder must give written notice to the Company’s Secretary not less than 120 days nor more than 150 days in advance of the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of shareholders. The notice must contain specified information about the proposed business or each nominee and the shareholder making the proposal or nomination. If the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 25 days of such anniversary date, the notice given by the shareholder must be received no later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which the notice of such annual meeting date was mailed or public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs.

All shareholder proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials will be subject to the requirements of the proxy rules adopted under the Exchange Act and, as with any shareholder proposal (regardless of whether it is included in the Company’s proxy materials), the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s Bylaws and Florida law.

If no record date is fixed as described in the preceding paragraphs, the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the shareholders, or entitled to receive payment of a dividend or for any other purpose shall be: (a) for the purpose of a meeting of the shareholders, the later of (i) the day twenty (20) days before the day on which the notice of such meeting is mailed and (ii) the day on which the resolution of the Board of Directors authorizing the notice of such meeting is adopted; or (b) for the purposes of entitlement to receive payment of a dividend or for any other purpose, the day on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend or authorizing such other action is adopted.
