Item 5.02 Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

 

On September 15, 2023, our compensation committee established a cash bonus plan for our chief executive officer, Paresh Patel. The bonus plan is a sub-plan under, and is subject to the terms and conditions of, our 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

 

The bonus calculation under this plan is a formula based on earnings before income taxes (on a consolidated basis). The measurement period is the calendar year 2023. No cash bonus will be awarded under the plan unless such earnings reach a $35 million threshold amount. The maximum cash bonus will be $2.4 million. The cash bonus will be paid in three equal installments, on March 15, 2024, 2025 and 2026; provided, however that the 2025 and 2026 payments will be forfeited, if, during those respective years adverse development relating to insurance claims for the 2023 accident year materially exceeds the claims losses recorded with respect to the 2023 accident year.

 

The foregoing bonus plan is not binding on the company. The compensation committee retains the discretion to increase or decrease the bonus payable to Mr. Patel.

 

Further, the foregoing bonus, if any, is subject to Mr. Patel’s agreement that in the event the company is required to restate its financial statements due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement he will repay any portion of this bonus compensation that would not have been awarded under the restated financial statements.

 

On the same date, our compensation committee also awarded Mr. Patel an option to purchase 150,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $70 per share. The option will vest when the last reported sale price of the common stock is greater than $80 for 20 consecutive trading days and has a 10-year term.
