Item 5.02(e).   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

The Company follows a pay-per-performance philosophy. Our compensation plans are designed to focus NEOs on goals that align with business strategy, operating performance and shareholder values. In support of our philosophy, performance-based awards pay out only when pre-determined results are achieved. The 2016 cash bonuses were determined based on the achievement of pre-established performance measures set by the Committee under the shareholder-approved Company 2014 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the Executive Incentive Plan (EIP).
Mr. Lucien’s 2017 base salary is effective March 1, 2017. Mr. Hamano’s 2017 base salary is effective April 1, 2017. The other 2017 NEO base salaries remain unchanged from the base salaries approved in 2015.
On February 24, 2017, the Committee also awarded Restricted Stock Grants (“RSGs”) to the Company’s 5 NEOs pursuant to the terms of the Plan. The RSGs awarded to the NEOs are shown in the table below:

Kent T. Lucien
2,944

Wayne Y. Hamano
5,887

Mark A. Rossi
4,710

Mary E. Sellers
5,887


These performance-based RSGs were made pursuant to individual Restricted Stock Grant Agreements, which provide for cliff vesting to occur after a three year performance period, 2017, 2018 and 2019, and terminates on the date of certification of achievement of service and financial performance objectives by the Committee. The specified 3 year financial performance criteria are related to the Company’s Return on Equity, Stock Price to Book Ratio and Tier 1 Capital Ratio, weighted at 45%, 45% and 10% respectively, as compared to designated Peer Group performance as more particularly described in the form Restricted Stock Grant Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference. The 3 year performance period and cliff vesting schedule directly tie to the Company’s long-term executive retention and performance goals. This summary of the provisions of the RSG is qualified in its entirety by the actual copies of the form Restricted Stock Grant Agreement.
