Adoption of 2016 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan
On January 5, 2016, the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Company’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2016 LTIC Plan”) for plan participants, including the named executive officers. Lammot J. du Pont, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, will not be a participant in the 2016 LTIC Plan.
The 2016 LTIC Plan includes performance-vesting stock units (“Performance Units”) and shares of time-vesting restricted common stock of the Company (“Restricted Stock”).
The Performance Units vest on February 1, 2019, but only if (a) the participant remains continuously employed by the Company or an affiliate of the Company until that date, (b) with respect to one-half of each Performance Unit award, the total stockholder return of the Company’s common stock for the three-year performance period beginning on January 1, 2016 (the “Performance Period”) meets or exceeds the return of the MSCI US REIT Index for the Performance Period, and (c) with respect to the remaining half of each Performance Unit award, the total stockholder return of the Company’s common stock for the Performance Period meets or exceeds the return of an index of publicly-traded data center companies for the Performance Period.
The Restricted Stock awards vest ratably in three equal portions on each of March 1, 2017, 2018 and 2019 so long as the participant remains continuously employed by the Company or an affiliate of the Company from the date of the grant through the applicable vesting date.
On January 5, 2016, the Committee approved the following equity-based incentive awards under the 2016 LTIC Plan:
Christopher P. Eldredge, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, 48,062 Performance Units;
Jeffrey H. Foster, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, 22,429 Performance Units;
Maria Kenny, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Chief Development Officer, 12,817 Performance Units;
Richard A. Montfort, the Company’s Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, 6,409 Performance Units and 6,409 shares of Restricted Stock; and
James W. Armstrong, the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer, 2,404 Performance Units and 2,404 shares of Restricted Stock.
Copies of the 2016 LTIC Plan and the forms of the Performance Stock Unit Award Agreement and Restricted Stock Award Agreement are attached to this report as exhibits. The summary set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to each of these documents.
