("2013 fiscal year").
Under the 2013 fiscal year cash

Under this program, Mr. Horton and Mr. Tomnitz each received $2,499,999 for the semi-annual period ended March 31, 2013 and each received $2,412,646 for the semi-annual period ended September 30, 2013 resulting in Mr. Horton
and Mr. Tomnitz each receiving a total cash bonus in the amount of $4,912,645 or 0.75% of consolidated pre-tax income for the 2013 fiscal year. The Compensation Committee used its discretion to reduce the percentage paid from a maximum of 1% to
0.75% of consolidated pre-tax income for the 2013 fiscal year.
Performance Determination of Grant of Performance Restricted Stock Units
.
On November 11, 2010, the Compensation Committee made an award of long-term performance restricted stock units
("Performance RSUs")
under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan
("2006 Plan")
to Mr. Horton and Mr. Tomnitz. The three year performance period for the Performance RSUs was October 1, 2010 to September 30, 2013
(the "Performance
Period").
Vesting of the Performance RSUs was based on four performance goals. The four performance goals were (i) relative total
shareholder return
("TSR"),
(ii) relative return on investment
("ROI"),
(iii) relative selling, general and administrative expense
2
containment
("SG&A")
and (iv) relative gross profit
("GP") (collectively, the "Performance Goals")
. Each Performance Goal is weighted twenty-five
percent (25%) of the target number of Performance RSUs. The Performance RSUs had a target number of 150,000 which could be increased or decreased based on performance rankings at the end of the Performance Period.
After completion of the Performance Period, the Compensation Committee evaluated the relative peer group rankings for the four performance goals and the terms
of the Performance RSUs and determined that Mr. Horton and Mr. Tomnitz and based on the performance rankings achieved each vested in 243,750 Performance RSUs. The Compensation Committee approved payout of the Performance RSUs to each of
Mr. Horton and Mr. Tomnitz in the form of 243,750 shares of common stock valued at $4,736,063 as of September 30, 2013, the last day of the Performance Period.
2014 Fiscal Year Compensation Program of Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer.
Base Salaries.
The base salaries, annual performance-based bonus plans, and other benefits for Mr. Horton, Mr. Tomnitz and
Mr. Auld for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014
("2014 fiscal year")
were also approved by the Compensation Committee. Mr. Horton's base annual salary remains unchanged at $1,000,000 and
Mr. Tomnitz's base annual salary remains unchanged at $900,000. Mr. Auld's base annual salary shall be $500,000.
Annual
Performance Bonus.
Mr. Horton and Mr. Tomnitz also have the opportunity to earn cash bonuses of up to 0.6% of consolidated pre-tax income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and based on the two
semi-annual performance periods ending March 31
st
and September 30
th
during the 2014 fiscal year, while Mr. Auld also has the
opportunity to earn cash bonuses of up to 0.25% of consolidated pre-tax income for the same two semi-annual performance periods.
The primary components
of the 2014 fiscal year compensation program for Mr. Horton, Mr. Tomnitz, and Mr. Auld are set forth in Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and Exhibit 10.1 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
Three-Year Performance Restricted Stock Units Award - Vesting September 30, 2016.
On November 7, 2013, the Compensation Committee approved an award of performance restricted stock units
("Performance RSUs")
pursuant to
the Company's 2006 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated
("2006 Plan")
to the following executive officers and in the following amounts:
Name
Office
Target # of Performance
Restricted Stock Units
Donald R. Horton
Chairman of the Board
200,000
Donald J. Tomnitz
President and CEO
150,000
3
The Performance RSUs relate to a three-year performance period beginning on October 1, 2013 and ending on
September 30, 2016
(the "2016 Performance Period").
The Performance RSUs will vest if four performance goals are satisfied. The four performance goals relate to relative total shareholder return
("TSR"),
relative return on investment
("ROI"),
relative selling, general and administrative expense containment
("SG&A")
and relative gross profit
("GP") (collectively, the "Performance
Goals")
. Each Performance Goal is weighted twenty-five percent (25%) of the target number of Performance RSUs. The target number of Performance RSUs may be increased to a maximum number of 400,000 for Mr. Horton and 300,000 for
Mr. Tomnitz upon maximum achievement of each of the four Performance Goals and decreased to a minimum number of zero upon minimum achievement of each of the four Performance Goals. Performance and percentages that fall between the maximum RSUs,
the Target RSUs and the minimum (zero) RSUs shall be ranked using linear interpolation. The Company's peer group includes ten publicly traded homebuilding companies, and with the Company included, includes eleven homebuilding companies in the
final rankings.
Each Performance RSU represents the contingent right to receive one share of the Company's common stock if vesting is satisfied. The
Compensation Committee reserves the sole discretion to pay the final earned and vested Performance RSUs in equity, cash or a combination of both. The Performance RSUs have no rights to dividends or voting.
Vesting of the TSR Performance Goal component will be determined after the 2016 Performance Period based on a comparison of the Company's TSR to the
S&P 500 Index's TSR as computed by Standard and Poor's using their TSR methodology. Vesting of the ROI, SG&A and GP Performance Goal components will be determined after the 2016 Performance Period based on the relative ranking of
the Company's performance on each Performance Goal to each peer group company's performance on each Performance Goal. Any portion of the Performance RSUs that do not vest due to inadequate relative performance will be forfeited. The
Compensation Committee may use its sole discretion to adjust downward, in part or in whole the vested Performance RSUs or the value of the Performance RSUs based on performance of the Company, including based on total annual pre-tax income or stock
price of the Company, the performance of the participant or other factors.
