PROXY STATEMENT
This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card are being
mailed to our stockholders in connection with the solicitation
of proxies by our Board of Directors for the 2007 annual meeting
of stockholders to be held on Tuesday, May 8, 2007,
beginning at 2:00 p.m., at One SeaGate, Toledo, Ohio, in
the auditorium adjacent to the lobby, and any adjournment or
postponement thereof. The mailing commenced on or about
April 6, 2007.
What
information does this document contain?
This proxy statement describes the items to be voted on by our
stockholders at the annual meeting, the voting process, the
compensation of our directors and most highly paid executive
officers, and certain other required information. Accompanying
this proxy statement is a proxy card, a copy of our 2006 Annual
Report (which includes our 2006 Form 10-K), and a brochure
with a letter from our Chairman, President and Chief Executive
Officer and information about our company and the services we
provide.
Who can
vote?
You can vote if you were a stockholder at the close of business
on the record date, March 16, 2007. We had
73,141,745 shares of common stock outstanding on
March 16, 2007.
What am I
voting on?
You are voting on:
|
|
|
|
|
Election of nine directors for annual terms.
|
|
|
|
Any other business properly presented at the meeting.
|
How do I
vote?
If you hold your shares directly in your own name, you are a
stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record,
you can vote in person at the meeting or you can vote by mail,
by internet, or by telephone following the instructions on your
proxy card. If you hold your shares indirectly in the name of a
bank, broker, or other nominee, these proxy materials are being
forwarded to you by your nominee with instructions describing
how to vote your shares.
What is a
quorum?
A quorum is the number of shares that must be present to have
the annual meeting. The quorum requirement for the annual
meeting is a majority of the outstanding shares as of the record
date, present in person or represented by proxy. If you submit a
valid proxy card or attend the annual meeting, your shares will
be counted to determine whether there is a quorum. Abstentions
and broker non-votes count toward the quorum. A broker
non-vote occurs when a nominee (such as a bank or broker)
holding shares for a beneficial owner does not have
discretionary voting power and does not receive voting
instructions from the beneficial owner before the meeting.
How are
broker non-votes or abstentions counted in the voting
results?
Although abstentions and broker non-votes count for quorum
purposes, they do not count as votes for or against a proposal.
1
Can I
change my vote after I return my proxy card?
Yes, you can revoke your proxy card by:
|
|
|
|
|
Submitting a new proxy card;
|
|
|
|
Giving written notice to us before the meeting that you are
revoking your proxy card;
|
|
|
|
Casting a new vote by internet or telephone; or
|
|
|
|
Attending the meeting and voting your shares in person.
|
If you hold your shares indirectly in the name of a bank,
broker, or other nominee, the revocation must be performed by
your nominee by submitting a new proxy card or giving us written
notice of the revocation.
Who
counts the votes?
Our transfer agent, National City Bank, tabulates the votes and
acts as inspector of the election.
Is my
vote confidential?
Yes. All proxy cards and vote tabulations identifying
individual stockholders are handled in a manner that protects
your voting privacy.
How do I
vote my 401(k) shares?
If you hold shares through the HCR Manor Care Stock Purchase and
Retirement Savings 401(k) Plan, you will receive a separate
proxy card which describes the three alternative methods for
voting. Use one of these alternatives to instruct the plan
trustee how to vote the shares allocated to your plan account.
If you do not vote by one of these methods (or you submit an
unclear voting designation or no voting designation at all), the
plan trustee will vote the shares in your account the same way
as the majority of the other plan participants voted their
shares. Any revocation of your vote must be submitted to the
plan trustee, and you are not entitled to vote your shares in
person at the meeting. The common stock outstanding on the
record date included 2,095,669 shares held by the plan
trustee. The Manor Care, Inc. Nonqualified Retirement Savings
and Investment Plan trustee has the exclusive right to vote the
shares held in this plan.
What vote
is required to approve each item?
Election of Directors. Each director shall be
elected by the vote of the majority of the votes cast with
respect to the director. A majority of the votes cast means
that, of the shares represented in person or by proxy and
entitled to vote on the election of directors, the number of
shares voted for a director must exceed the number
of votes cast against that director. If you
withhold authority to vote for all or certain
nominees, your proxy will not be voted with respect to the
nominee or nominees indicated, although it will be counted for
purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that if a nominee
for director (who is an incumbent director) does not receive a
majority of the votes cast for that director, the director shall
offer to tender his or her resignation to the Board. The
Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board on
whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other
action should be taken. The Board will act on the Governance
Committees recommendation and publicly disclose its
decision and the rationale behind it within 90 days from
the date of certification of the election results. The director
who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the
Boards decision. Each of the nominees for election this
year has agreed to abide by such provisions.
Other Items. Approval of any other item requires the
affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented in
person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the item.
Can I
attend the meeting in person?
Yes. If you were a stockholder of record at the close of
business on March 16, 2007, you or your designated proxy
may attend the meeting. We may ask that you or your proxy
present valid identification for admission.
2
ITEM 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Item 1 is the election of nine directors to the Board of
Directors for one-year terms. Prior to May 2004, our Board of
Directors was divided into three classes. Directors held office
for staggered terms of three years. One of the three classes was
elected each year to succeed the directors whose terms were
expiring. At our 2004 annual stockholders meeting, the
stockholders approved an amendment to our Certificate of
Incorporation which eliminated the classified board
prospectively. Class I is the last remaining class of
directors. The three-year terms of the current members of
Class I, William H. Longfield and Paul A. Ormond, expire at
the 2007 annual meeting. Upon the recommendation of our
Governance Committee, each of these incumbent directors has been
nominated by the Board of Directors to serve additional one-year
terms. The one-year terms of Mary Taylor Behrens, Joseph F.
Damico, John T. Schwieters, Richard C. Tuttle, Gail R. Wilensky,
and Thomas L. Young, and the term of Stephen L. Guillard, who
was elected in December 2006 to fill the vacancy created by the
retirement of M. Keith Weikel, also expire at the 2007 annual
meeting. Upon the recommendation of our Governance Committee,
each of these other seven incumbent directors has also been
nominated by the Board of Directors to serve additional one-year
terms.
The Board of Directors expects all nominees named above to be
available for election, and each has consented to be named as a
nominee. The proxies will vote your shares to elect these nine
nominees, unless you vote against a nominee or withhold the
proxies authority to do so on the accompanying proxy card.
In case any nominee is not available, the proxies can vote your
shares for a substitute nominee designated by the Board of
Directors, or the vacancy will be filled in accordance with our
by-laws. Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines, each
nominee has agreed to offer to submit his or her resignation
from the Board in the event such nominee receives less than a
majority of the votes cast in the election. A majority of the
votes cast means that, of the shares represented in person or by
proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors, the
number of shares voted for a director must exceed
the number of votes cast against that director.
Information as to each nominee follows.
The Board
of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR each
nominee.

CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE
Corporate
Governance Guidelines
We have adopted a comprehensive set of Corporate Governance
Guidelines, the current, printable full text of which may be
found on our website at
www.hcr-manorcare.com/investor/governanceguide.asp and is
available in print to any stockholder upon request. Among other
provisions, the Corporate Governance Guidelines provide for
executive sessions of the non-management directors, chaired on a
rotating basis by the chairs of the Boards standing
committees.
Independence
of Directors
The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that
Ms. Behrens, Ms. Wilensky and Messrs. Damico,
Longfield, Schwieters, Tuttle, and Young are independent
directors within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock
Exchange, and with respect to members of our Audit Committee,
also within the meaning of the applicable rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board has determined
that none of the independent directors has a relationship with
us other than as a director or a stockholder. In addition, the
Board has determined that none of the independent directors
falls within any of the categories listed in
Section 303A.02(b) of the New York Stock Exchange Listed
Company Manual that would otherwise preclude such directors from
being considered independent. The independent directors comprise
our non-management directors.
4
Nominations
for Directors
The Governance Committee considers candidates for board
membership suggested by committee members, other board members,
stockholders, and management. A stockholder wishing to propose a
nominee for our Board of Directors should submit a notice in
writing to the companys Secretary whose name and address
appear in the last paragraph of this proxy statement, setting
forth the following information for each person whom the
stockholder proposes to nominate:

address;

|
|
(2)
|
the persons principal occupation or employment;
|
|
|
(3)
|
the class and number of shares of our capital stock which the
person beneficially owns; and
|
|
|
(4)
|
any other information relating to the person that is required to
be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of
directors pursuant to applicable SEC rules.
|
In addition, as to the stockholder giving notice and the
beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is
made, the following information should be provided:

(4)
|
a representation whether the stockholder intends or is part of a
group that intends to solicit proxies in support of the
nomination.
|
The notice should comply with the timing requirements set forth
in the last paragraph of this proxy statement.
After our Governance Committee has identified a prospective
nominee, the Committee makes an initial determination whether to
conduct a full evaluation of the candidate. This determination
is based primarily on the need for additional board members to
fill vacancies or expand the size of the Board and the
likelihood that the individual will meet the minimum
qualification of prior senior management or equivalent
experience in an organization that is comparable to us in size,
scope of services, and other operating characteristics. If the
Committee determines that further consideration is warranted, it
will undertake to gather additional information about the
prospective nominees background, experience, and skills.
The Committee will evaluate the nominee based on a variety of
factors it deems appropriate which will include: (1) the
skills, talent, and expertise of the nominee; (2) the
ability of the nominee to devote sufficient time, energy, and
attention to the diligent performance of his or her duties on
the Board; (3) the independence of the nominee under
applicable standards; (4) the nominees reputation for
integrity and honesty; (5) the Boards need for
particular expertise, such as financial expertise for our Audit
Committee; (6) diversity; and (7) similar factors. In
making this evaluation, the Committee, through one or more of
its members or other directors, may interview the candidate in
person or by telephone. After completing this evaluation
process, the Committee will make a report and recommendation to
the Board regarding the nominee. The Board shall then determine
the nominees after considering the report and recommendation of
the Committee.
Communications
with the Board
Stockholders and other interested parties who desire to
communicate directly with our Board of Directors or with any
non-management director may do so by directing correspondence to
the companys Secretary whose name and address appear in
the last paragraph of this proxy statement. The Board has
adopted a process for collecting and organizing communications
from stockholders and other interested parties. Summaries of all
correspondence will be forwarded periodically to the full Board
along with copies of specific correspondence which deals with
the functions of the Board or its committees or which, in the
judgment of the
5
companys Secretary, addresses material issues which
require the attention of the Board. The directors may at any
time review the summary of correspondence received and request
copies of any such correspondence.
Codes of
Ethics and Standards of Business Conduct
The current, printable full text of our code of ethics for our
directors, our code of ethics for our chief executive officer
and senior financial officers, and our standards of business
conduct applicable to all employees may be found on our website
at www.hcr-manorcare.com/investor/governance.asp and is
available in print to any stockholder upon request.
Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions
Our Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing and
evaluating potential conflicts of interest and with reviewing
and approving any related party transactions.
During 2006, National City Corporation and certain of its
subsidiaries provided us and certain of our officers with
commercial banking, private banking, and trust services.
Mr. Ormond was a director of National City during 2006.
Compensation
Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation in Compensation
Decisions
Our Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of independent
directors. No member of the Committee has ever served as one of
our officers or employees. None of our executive officers serves
on the compensation committee of any other company that has an
executive officer serving on our Board of Directors. None of our
executive officers serves as a member of the board of directors
of any other company that has an executive officer serving as a
member of our Compensation Committee.
BOARD
MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD
Board
Meetings
Our Board of Directors met five times during 2006. Executive
sessions of the non-management directors were held in
conjunction with four of the regular Board meetings in 2006.
Each director attended more than 75 percent of the total
number of meetings of the Board and the committees on which each
served. In addition, our directors are strongly encouraged to
attend our annual stockholders meeting. In 2006, all directors
except Ms. Wilensky attended the annual stockholders
meeting.
Board
Committees
Our Board of Directors currently has four standing committees:
Audit; Compensation; Governance; and Quality. Each standing
committees current charter is available in a printable
version on our website at
www.hcr-manorcare.com/investor/governance.asp and is
available in print to any stockholder upon request.
Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee consists of three
independent directors, Messrs. Schwieters, Tuttle, and
Young. During the year, the Board confirmed that all members of
the Committee were independent within the meaning of the New
York Stock Exchanges listing standards and the applicable
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board has
determined that Messrs. Schwieters and Young are financial
experts and that Mr. Tuttle possesses financial literacy
within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock Exchange
and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mr. Schwieters
currently serves on the audit committees of three other public
companies. Our Governance Committee and Board of Directors have
determined that such service does not impair
Mr. Schwieterss ability to continue to serve on our
Audit Committee. During 2006, the Committee met formally on
seven occasions and conferred by telephone conference on other
occasions as necessary. The Committees functions and its
major activities during fiscal year 2006 are described below
under Audit Committee Disclosure beginning on
page 10 and in the Audit Committee Report on
pages 11-12.
Compensation Committee. Our Compensation Committee
consists of four independent directors, Ms. Behrens and
Messrs. Damico, Longfield, and Young. None of the Committee
members is eligible to
6
participate in any of our executive compensation programs.
During 2006, the Committee met on three occasions. The
Committees functions and its major activities during
fiscal year 2006 are described below under Executive
Compensation beginning on page 12 and in the
Compensation Committee Report on page 20.
Governance Committee. Our Governance Committee consists
of four independent directors, Ms. Wilensky and
Messrs. Damico, Longfield, and Tuttle. The Committee is
responsible for developing and recommending to the Board the
corporate governance principles applicable to us. The Committee
is also responsible for developing policies and practices
designed to implement the governance principles adopted by the
Board, and thereafter monitoring compliance with those policies
and periodically reviewing them. In addition, the Committee
identifies individuals qualified to become board members,
develops and reviews background information on the candidates,
and makes recommendations to the Board regarding such
candidates. The Committee annually makes recommendations for
committee assignments for directors. The Committee also
prepares, summarizes, and reports on the Boards annual
self-evaluation and reviews, makes recommendations regarding
director compensation, reviews and evaluates potential conflicts
of interest, and reviews and approves any related party
transactions. During 2006, the Committee met on three occasions.
Quality Committee. Our Quality Committee consists of
three independent directors and one management director,
Ms. Behrens, Ms. Wilensky, Mr. Schwieters, and
Mr. Guillard. The Committee meets regularly with our Chief
Medical Officer and our Vice President, Director of Clinical
Services and reviews information regarding the quality of care
provided in our nursing centers and other facilities and
operations. In fulfilling this function, the Committee regularly
reviews our performance on state and federal surveys,
information regarding quality indicators, and information
regarding clinical initiatives relating to quality of care. The
Committee receives and evaluates information regarding changes
in the industry, including changes in the regulatory
environment. The Committee also makes
on-site
visits to selected facilities, tours the facilities, and meets
with key staff. During 2006, the Committee held one formal
meeting and conferred in person and by telephone conference on
other occasions as necessary.

AUDIT
COMMITTEE DISCLOSURE
Our Audit Committee consists of three independent directors
appointed by our Board of Directors. The Committee operates
under a written charter first adopted and approved by the Board
in May 2000. A copy of the current Audit Committee Charter is
available in a printable version on our website at
www.hcr-manorcare.com/investor/governance.asp
and is available in print to any stockholder upon request.
The Committee met formally on seven occasions during 2006,
conferred by telephone conference on other occasions as
necessary, and received and reviewed written information related
to the Committees functions. During the past year, the
Committee held discussions with management, our independent
registered public accounting firm Ernst & Young LLP
(Registered Accountant), our internal auditors, our legal
counsel, representatives of our Corporate Compliance Committee,
and others.
Among many other activities as noted in the Committees
charter, the Committee, on behalf of the Board, monitors our
financial reporting process and our system of internal control.
Management prepares our financial statements and implements our
financial reporting process, including our system of internal
control. Our Registered Accountant annually performs an audit of
our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) and issues a report on its audit and an opinion
with respect to the financial statements. Our internal auditors
review and evaluate our system of internal control and conduct
audits of selected units to ensure that they operate in
compliance with these controls. Our Registered Accountant and
the internal auditors report directly to the Committee regarding
their activities. Our Corporate Compliance Committee administers
our corporate compliance program and also reports directly to
the Committee.
As a result of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002, our Registered Accountant is required to attest to and
report on, managements assessment of the effectiveness of
our internal control structure and procedures for financial
reporting. Accordingly, the audit conducted by our Registered
Accountant for 2006 was an integrated audit designed to express:
(1) an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as
of, and for the year ended, December 31, 2006; (2) an
opinion on managements assessment of internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2006; and
(3) an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006.
Prior to the beginning of the integrated audit for 2006, the
Committee discussed with our Registered Accountant and our
internal auditors the overall scope and plans for their
respective audits. These discussions focused on the principal
areas of audit emphasis, the objectives related to the audits,
the key accounting and reporting developments that would affect
the audit plans, and the primary personnel who would be involved
in the audits. Following completion of the integrated audit by
our Registered Accountant, the Committee received written
reports from the Registered Accountant regarding the results of
its integrated audit of the financial statements and internal
control over financial reporting. Our internal auditors
similarly submitted a written report regarding the internal
audits which were conducted throughout the year. The Committee
then met separately with both our Registered Accountant and our
internal auditors, with and without management present, to
discuss the results of their examinations. Among other things,
the Committee discussed with our Registered Accountant its
judgments as to the quality of our accounting principles and
such other matters as are required to be discussed with the
Committee by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (as
amended), other standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and other applicable regulations. The
Committee also reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated
financial statements with management and our Registered
Accountant. Management represented to the Committee that our
financial statements were prepared in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our
internal control over financial reporting was effective as of
December 31, 2006. The Registered Accountant advised the
Committee that it was prepared to issue unqualified opinions as
of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 with respect to
the consolidated financial statements, managements
assessment of internal control over financial reporting, and the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
The Committee also received a satisfactory report from the
Corporate Compliance Committee concerning compliance activities
during 2006.
10
In addition, the Committee discussed with the Registered
Accountant its independence from us and our management, reviewed
a report from the Registered Accountant on that firms
internal quality control procedures, reviewed in detail the
audit and non-audit fees paid to the Registered Accountant
during 2006, and considered the compatibility of the non-audit
services with the Registered Accountants independence. The
Committee concluded that such services did not compromise the
independence of the Registered Accountant.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Directors selected Ernst & Young LLP as our Registered
Accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.

Young LLP.
Audit
Committee Pre-Approval Policy
Our Audit Committee has adopted a policy requiring pre-approval
of the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP on any
non-audit matter and, in compliance with Sections 201 and
202 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, providing that certain activities
specified in Section 201 may not be undertaken regardless
of Committee approval. Requests for pre-approval of permitted
non-audit services are submitted to the Committee by management,
together with estimated fees for such services and the time
frame for the completion of the work. The Committee may request
input from Ernst & Young LLP on the nature, scope, and
costs of such services. The Committee considers any such request
at a meeting of the Committee and advises management whether the
Committee approves the requested engagement. Management reports
periodically to the Committee regarding the actual amounts spent
for such approved engagements compared to the amounts approved
by the Committee.

EXECUTIVE
COMPENSATION
Compensation
Discussion and Analysis
Overview
of Compensation Program
Our Compensation Committee administers and regularly evaluates
our executive compensation program to ensure its appropriateness
in the context of our business and in the context of its
competitiveness with the compensation practices of other
companies. From time to time, the Committee seeks the advice of
independent experts in evaluating plan design, compensation
levels, and administration.
Each year the Committee reviews and approves corporate goals and
objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officers (CEO)
compensation, evaluates the CEOs performance in light of
those goals and objectives, and establishes the CEOs
compensation levels based on this evaluation. The Committee then
annually reviews and approves, for the CEO and the other
executive officers, (a) annual base salary level,
(b) annual incentive awards, (c) long-term incentive
awards, (d) employment agreements, severance arrangements,
and change in control agreements/provisions, in each case as,
when, and if appropriate, and (e) any special or
supplemental benefits or perquisites. The Committee approves
retirement, savings, deferred compensation and similar plans and
all perquisites for the executive officers. The Committee also
administers our Equity Incentive Plan and other incentive
compensation plans, including approving participation in these
plans and reviewing and making awards.
Throughout this Proxy Statement, we refer to our Chief Executive
Officer, together with those individuals serving as our Chief
Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and General Counsel
during 2006, and our Group Vice President, Hospice and Home
Health Care, all of whom are included in the Summary
Compensation Table on page 21, as the named
executive officers.
Compensation
Philosophy and Objectives
Our Compensation Committee believes that compensation paid to
executive officers should be closely aligned with our
performance on both a short-term and long-term basis, should be
linked to specific, measurable results intended to create value
for our stockholders, and should assist us in attracting and
retaining key executives critical to our long-term success.
The primary objective of our executive compensation program
continues to be to enhance stockholder value over the long term.
To achieve this primary objective, our Compensation Committee
believes that our executive compensation program should:
|
|
|
|
|
Strongly compete within the health care industry generally and
with the compensation policies of other publicly held companies
of comparable size and complexity;
|
12
|
|
|
|
|
Provide major incentives linked directly to increases in
recognized measures of stockholder value;
|
|
|
|
Reward superior performance over both the short term and long
term as measured by financial and strategic factors;
|
|
|
|
Provide a portion of total compensation opportunities for
executive management in the form of direct ownership in the
company through restricted stock and stock options; and
|
|
|
|
Ultimately, be structured and implemented to attract individuals
of superior ability and managerial talent and to encourage them
both to deliver superior performance and to remain with our
company.
|
The Committee believes that our performance, as measured by
annualized and cumulative total shareholder return in recent
years and over an even longer term horizon, has validated the
performance-driven character of our executive compensation
programs.
Consistent with our performance-based philosophy, we provide a
base salary to our executive officers supplemented with a
significant incentive based component. For our senior executive
management team, comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and General Counsel
we reserve the largest potential compensation awards for
performance- and incentive-based programs. These programs
include annual and long-term awards based on our financial
performance as measured by key performance criteria. These
programs include compensation in the form of both cash and
equity, to provide incentives to reward both our short-term and
long-term performance.
Stock
Ownership Guidelines
To further tie compensation to performance, our Compensation
Committee has established stock ownership guidelines for
executive officers. The guidelines are based upon a multiple of
salary, depending upon the executives position in the
organization. Although the guidelines are effective immediately,
an executive generally has two years to accumulate shares to
reach his or her goal. Our CEO has exceeded the stock ownership
guidelines by a significant margin. Although each of our other
current senior executive officers has served in his current
position for less than two years, each is taking appropriate
steps to be in compliance with the stock ownership guidelines
and anticipates being in compliance within the required time
frame.
Policy
Related to Deductibility of Compensation.
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 denies
a deduction to any publicly held corporation for compensation
paid to the CEO and the other four most highly compensated
officers, as of the end of a fiscal year, to the extent that the
compensation exceeds $1 million in any such year, subject
to an exception for performance-based compensation.
Our Compensation Committee intends to take the necessary steps,
including appropriate plan amendments, to qualify compensation
paid to executive officers for deductibility to the extent that
so qualifying the compensation is not inconsistent with our
fundamental compensation policies. In furtherance of this
policy, the Performance Award Plan and the Equity Incentive Plan
described below are designed to satisfy
Section 162(m)s performance-based compensation
requirements. The Committee continues to monitor developments on
this subject and will take further action as may be appropriate.
Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation
Commencing January 1, 2006, we began accounting for
stock-based compensation in accordance with the requirements of
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement
No. 123R, Share-Based Payment
(Statement 123R). Prior to January 1, 2006, we
accounted for stock-based compensation under the recognition and
measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by
FASB Statement No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. Based on our method of adoption, we have not
restated our stock-based compensation expense recorded in prior
years. A detailed discussion of the effect of our adoption of
Statement 123R appears beginning on page 67 of our
2006 Annual Report on
Form 10-K
as filed with the
13
Securities and Exchange Commission that is included within our
2006 Annual Report that accompanies this proxy statement.
Practices
with Respect to Equity Compensation Awards
Our Compensation Committee routinely makes equity compensation
awards at the first meeting of the Committee each calendar year.
The Committee may also make equity compensation awards during
the year in connection with the hiring of new executive officers
or in connection with other special circumstances. We price all
equity incentive awards based on the fair market value on the
date of the award, which is defined, since the January 2007
amendment to our Equity Incentive Plan, as the closing price of
our stock on the date of the award. Prior to the amendment, fair
market value had been defined as the closing price of our stock
on the day before the date of the award. We do not grant
equity-based awards at other than the fair market value.
Consistent with this practice, the exercise price for stock
option grants and similar awards is now set at the closing price
of our stock on the date of the award.
Determination
of Compensation Awards; Role of Executive Officers in
Compensation Decisions
Our Compensation Committee annually reviews the performance of
our executive officers and determines the compensation awarded
to each. To aid the Committee in making its determinations, our
CEO provides recommendations annually to the Committee regarding
the compensation of all executive officers other than himself.
Each named executive officer, in turn, participates in an annual
performance review with the CEO to provide input about his
contributions to our success during the year.
Compensation
Benchmarking and Peer Group
Consistent with prior years, our Compensation Committee retained
Deloitte Consulting LLP as independent compensation consultant
to advise the Committee regarding the key elements of our
compensation programs for 2006. The compensation consultant
provided analysis and recommendations to the Committee with
respect to competitive practices and the amounts and nature of
compensation paid to executive officers in our healthcare
industry peer group. For 2006, our peer group consisted of the
following companies: Apria Healthcare Group Inc.; Community
Health Systems, Inc.; Coventry Health Care, Inc.; DaVita Inc.;
Genesis HealthCare Corporation; Health Management Associates,
Inc.; Kindred Healthcare, Inc.; Laboratory Corporation of
America; Omnicare, Inc.; Sun Healthcare Group, Inc.; Tenet
Healthcare Corporation; Triad Hospitals, Inc.; and Universal
Health Services, Inc.
The compensation consultant also advised on, among other things,
structuring our various compensation programs, the appropriate
mix of restricted stock and stock options, the appropriate split
between time-vested and performance-vested restricted stock, and
the appropriate levels of salary, bonus, and other awards
payable to our named executive officers.
Our Compensation Committee thoroughly evaluated the compensation
consultants advice, analysis, and recommendations in the
context of the Committees primary objective of enhancing
stockholder value over the long term. As a result, the Committee
has structured our executive compensation package to consist of
a fixed base salary and variable cash and stock-based incentive
awards, with a significant portion weighted towards the variable
components to ensure that total compensation reflects our
overall success and to motivate executive officers to meet
appropriate performance measures, thereby maximizing total
return to stockholders.
2006
Executive Compensation Components
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, the principal
components of compensation for the named executive officers were
fixed compensation in the form of base salary, performance-based
cash and equity incentive compensation, deferred compensation,
legacy pension benefits for certain named executive officers,
and certain perquisites.
Our Compensation Committee noted our achievement of high quality
of care indicators and our strong overall financial performance
for 2006, as well as the fact that we had exceeded both our 2006
budget and
14
2005 results by a substantial margin. The Committee noted
further that our 2006 earnings per share were $2.14, versus
$1.89 for 2005. The Committee also reviewed several unusual
items which had negatively affected our 2006 financial results
and discussed the unusual nature of each item. Finally, the
Committee noted that our stock had increased in value during
2006 (price appreciation plus dividend) by nearly 20%, a
performance significantly better than almost all major market
and health care services indices.
With the primary objective of our executive compensation program
in mind, and based on the compensation consultants advice,
analysis, and recommendations, the Committee determined to use
the 75th percentile of peer companies initially selected by
the consultant and approved by the Committee as a reference
point for setting the target compensation of the named executive
officers. Individual officers actual compensation may vary
based on individual factors such as industry experience, tenure,
and job responsibilities. The Committee recognized that the
superior performance, leadership skill, and experience of the
named executive officers, and the potential of these executives
to continue to enhance stockholder value in the future, made
them potential targets of competitive offers, and the Committee
felt that setting the target compensation at the
75th percentile was necessary in order to provide strong
incentives for these executives to remain with us and to
continue to perform at high levels.
With respect to equity long-term incentive awards (LTI) to the
named executive officers, the Committee determined that the
equity LTI value should generally be awarded through
approximately 65% restricted stock and 35% stock options. In an
effort to further align executive compensation with recognized
measures of stockholder value, the Committee determined that
approximately 70% of the restricted stock awards would contain
performance criteria controlling the vesting of the award over a
three-year period. Accordingly, a portion of these
performance-vested shares are eligible to vest annually based on
performance in that year against a two-part financial metric
tied to stockholder value. In addition, the performance shares
are subject to a threshold target for a minimum payout and a
maximum payout for performance above the target. The
performance-vested restricted stock, when issued, will remain
restricted until the termination of employment of the executive.
The Committee also determined that the stock option value would
be based on a Black-Scholes methodology.
Of the named executive officers, this compensation structure was
applied in 2006 to our CEO Mr. Ormond and to our current
and former Chief Operating Officers, Messrs. Guillard and
Weikel. Messrs. Cavanaugh and Parr were named as executive
officers upon the May 2006 retirements, respectively, of
Mr. Meyers as Chief Financial Officer and Mr. Bixler
as General Counsel. Mr. Weikel retired in December 2006.
Mr. Cavanaughs compensation package in 2006 included
a promotional salary increase and restricted stock units.
Mr. Parrs initial compensation package was separately
negotiated and for 2006 included base salary, bonus, and
restricted stock units, as well as certain benefits in
accordance with our policy related to his relocation from
Dallas, Texas. Mr. Grahams compensation package in
2006 included restricted stock units.
Fixed Compensation
Base Salary. Our Compensation Committee approved annual
salary increases for the named executive officers and certain
other corporate officers effective in September 2005. In making
these adjustments, the Committee considered past individual
performance as measured by both qualitative and quantitative
factors, the individuals potential for making significant
contributions to our future performance, the
75th percentile benchmark as described above and national
inflation trends. In January 2006, the Committee decided that
all significant compensation decisions, including annual salary
adjustments, should be consolidated for evaluation and decision
at one time, which the Committee determined should be in
conjunction with the first committee meeting of the calendar
year. Accordingly, in order to implement this determination for
2006, the Committee approved prorated salary adjustments
effective January 1, 2006, and determined that no further
annual adjustments in salary would be considered until January
2007.
Performance-Based Compensation
Our Compensation Committee structures our compensation programs
to reward executive officers based on our performance and on the
individual executives ability to contribute to that
performance. Accordingly, executive officers receive cash and
equity incentive compensation based on their position with us
and our
15
achievement of performance measures determined by the Committee.
The determination of the applicable performance measures for
each element of performance-based compensation are described
below. If specified threshold performance measures are exceeded,
our executive officers earn awards that vary in proportion to
the amount by which target levels are not met, achieved, or
exceeded, up to a maximum level in each case. The Committee may
determine or adjust performance-based awards to account for
unusual events, such as changes in reimbursement, extraordinary
transactions, and asset acquisitions and dispositions, if, and
to the extent, the Committee does not consider the effect of
such events indicative of our performance. Payments under each
of the programs are contingent upon continued employment,
although we will pay pro rata annual incentive amounts in the
event of death or disability.
Annual Incentive Plan. Our Compensation Committee
believes that the payment of this portion of our annual
performance-based compensation in cash provides incentives
necessary to retain executive officers and reward them for
short-term company performance. The Committee determines the
level of payouts under our Annual Incentive Plan based on its
assessment of quality, financial, and individual performance
metrics. In making that determination for 2006, the Committee
recognized that the quality of care in our operations, as
measured by survey compliance and other quality indicators,
remained at a high level during 2006. The Committee also
recognized the many ongoing challenges facing the senior
management team in leading us to deliver superior performance in
a heavily regulated, reimbursement-dependent industry. These
challenges included the continued need for operating adjustments
to address changes in Medicare reimbursement levels, Medicaid
funding issues for many states, maintaining strong cost
controls, and effectively managing general and professional
liability costs. In this context, the Committee considered
several specific accomplishments during the year that greatly
enhanced stockholder value. These achievements included the
following: (1) earnings per share (EPS) exceeding budgeted
EPS; (2) strong cash flow from operations of approximately
$275 million which enabled continued share repurchases and
ongoing investment in facility maintenance, upgrades, and
expansions; (3) our stocks increase in value during
2006 (price appreciation plus dividend) by nearly 20%;
(4) revenue growth of approximately 6% over 2005;
(5) quality-mix revenue increased to 72%;
(6) financial structure improvements which included an
additional issuance of low-coupon, high-premium convertible
debt, accelerated share repurchases, and the amendment of and
increase in our revolving credit facility; (7) significant
improvement in our hospice and home health care business; and
(8) maintaining a solid balance sheet and investment grade
ratings from both of the major rating agencies. The Committee
determined that these achievements in the current health care
services environment justified awards under the Annual Incentive
Plan significantly above target levels, as reflected in column
(d) of the Summary Compensation Table on
page 21.
The following table sets forth the target and maximum award
potential as a percentage of year-end base salary for each
current named executive officer who received cash
performance-based compensation under our Annual Incentive Plan
for 2006, as well as the actual 2006 award percentage approved
by the Committee for each:

Equity Incentive Plan. Our Compensation Committee
believes that the payment of this portion of our annual
performance-based compensation in the form of equity-based
awards provides incentives necessary to
16
retain executive officers and reward them for short-term company
performance, while creating long-term incentives to sustain
performance.
Our Equity Incentive Plan was initially approved by the
stockholders in 2001, and an amendment and restatement of the
plan was approved in 2004. This plan provides for stock-based
awards to a broad group of our employees including the named
executive officers. These awards may be in the form of stock
options, restricted stock, or stock appreciation rights. In
2005, our Compensation Committee approved a further amendment to
the Equity Incentive Plan allowing the Committee to issue
restricted stock units (RSUs). The plan provides that the
exercise price of a stock option or stock appreciation right
shall be equal to the fair market value of our stock on the date
of grant. Restricted stock granted or sold to a participant
cannot be sold or otherwise transferred by the participant until
the restrictions lapse or expire.
In 2006, consistent with its determinations regarding equity LTI
awards as described above, the Committee made awards of RSUs,
stock options, and a target number of
2006-2008
performance-vested restricted stock to certain named executive
officers, based on the formula adopted by the Committee,
including the split between time-vested and performance-vested
shares.
|
|
|
|
|
The RSUs vest one-third on each of the third, fourth, and fifth
anniversaries of the grant date, except for those awarded to
Mr. Guillard. In connection with his joining the company in
June 2005, all of Mr. Guillards 2006 RSUs vested on
March 1, 2007. Mr. Ormonds vested RSUs will not
be settled by delivery of shares until Mr. Ormonds
retirement.
|
|
|
|
The stock options were granted with exercise prices based on the
fair market value at the date of grant, three-year cliff
vesting, and
7-year terms.
|
|
|
|
One-third of the target number of performance-vested shares will
vest annually from 2006 to 2008 based on performance for each
year against the two-part performance measure adopted by the
Committee for the year (with each years actual shares
awarded being adjusted, as appropriate, based on our results as
certified by the Committee, as described below). The
performance-vested shares are restricted from sale until
termination of employment, but are not forfeitable, regardless
of the reason for termination of employment and regardless of
whether the recipient is retirement-eligible. In early 2007,
based on our performance in 2006, the Committee certified
results above the target levels for 2006 and approved award
levels for 2006 performance-vested restricted stock with respect
to the
2005-2007
and
2006-2008
awards. The performance criteria and 2006 award levels certified
for the performance-vested restricted shares are depicted in the
tables below.
|
|
|
|
In addition, the Committee approved amendments to
Mr. Weikels 2006 RSUs and stock options to provide
that these equity awards would be fully vested upon his
termination of employment as a result of his retirement.
|
The 2006 RSU awards, stock option awards, and the
performance-vested restricted stock are reflected, respectively,
in column (i), column (j), and columns (f)-(h) of the Grants
of Plan-Based Awards for 2006 table on page 24. The
actual 2006 restricted stock awards are reflected in column
(i) of the Outstanding Equity Awards at
December 31, 2006 table on page 26.
2005-2007
and
2006-2008
Performance-Vested Restricted Stock
Our Compensation Committee certifies annual results for earnings
per share and free cash flow performance measures, adjusted for
unusual items, and approves award levels for each performance
measure and in the aggregate, as a percentage of the target
number of performance-vested restricted shares for that year,
based on a comparison of the certified results to target levels
for each performance measure. The earnings per share award level
and the free cash flow award level are each calculated by
determining the percentage amount by which our results certified
by the Committee are greater or less than the target amount for
that applicable performance measure, multiplying that percentage
amount by 2.5, and, as applicable, adding the resulting product
to or subtracting it from 100%, to arrive at the award level for
that performance measure, to a maximum of 150% and a minimum of
50% for each performance measure. If for
17
any year the award level calculation for either performance
measure would not result in at least a 50% award level for that
performance measure (i.e., more than a 20% negative variance
from target), no shares would be awarded for that year. The
earnings per share award level is multiplied by the free cash
flow award level to arrive at an aggregate award level. The
actual number of shares awarded for the year is then calculated
by multiplying the aggregate award level by the years
target number of shares.
The following table sets forth the performance measures and 2006
target levels established in the third quarter of 2004 by our
Compensation Committee for the
2005-2007
performance-vested restricted stock, as well as the 2006 results
certified and award levels approved by the Committee for each
performance measure, and in the aggregate:

Performance Award Plan. Our Performance Award Plan (PAP)
links cash incentives to long-term increases in financial
measures of stockholder value. Under the PAP, eligible employees
receive a cash award payable at the end of the three-year period
specified in the award. At the end of the award period, our
Compensation Committee certifies results for an earnings per
share performance measure established at the beginning of the
period, adjusted for unusual items, and approves PAP payouts as
a percentage of target award, based on the performance measure
level achieved. For the
2004-2006
award period, the Committee approved PAP payouts in early 2007
based on adjusted earnings per share during the performance
period, as described below. The amounts of these payouts for
certain named executive officers appear below in column
(g) of the Summary Compensation Table on
page 21. Although the Committee believes that the PAP has
been an important component of overall long-term compensation
for certain senior executives, during 2005, the Committee
determined, with input and advice from the compensation
consultant, that the PAP should not be extended beyond the named
executive officers who historically participated in this plan,
and as to those senior executives the plan would be phased out
as such executives retired. In January 2006, Messrs. Ormond
and Weikel were granted PAP Awards for the
2006-2008
award period, with payouts to be based on
18
achievement of earnings per share goals during the performance
period, which appear below in columns (c)-(e) of the Grants
of Plan-Based Awards for 2006 table on page 24. The
Committee is currently reviewing the continuation of the PAP
program and alternatives to its continuation. No
2007-2009
PAP Awards have yet been granted by the Committee.
The following tables set forth: (1) the performance measure
levels established by our Compensation Committee in 2003 for the
2004-2006
performance award plan; (2) the compound annual growth rate
in our earnings per share resulting from achievement of the
performance measure levels; (3) the PAP payouts earned upon

Deferred Compensation
Certain of our officers, including the named executive officers,
may defer up to 100% of salary, bonus, and PAP awards pursuant
to our Senior Management Savings Plan for Corporate Officers. We
match amounts deferred up to three percent of total salary and
bonus. Our matching contributions are fully vested after a
participant completes four years of service. Our Compensation
Committee believes that our Senior Management Savings Plan for
Corporate Officers provides incentives necessary to retain
executive officers and reward them for short-term company
performance, while creating long-term incentives to sustain
performance. Our Senior Management Savings Plan for Corporate
Officers is described more fully under Nonqualified Deferred
Compensation for 2006 on
pages 30-31.
Pension Benefits
Of our current named executive officers, Messrs. Ormond,
Cavanaugh, and Graham participated in a qualified defined
benefit pension plan with previously frozen benefits that was
terminated on December 31, 2006 (Qualified Plan), and our
Senior Executive Retirement Plan (SERP), a nonqualified plan
with a continuation of substantially identical benefits to the
Qualified Plan, both of which are described more fully under
Pension Benefits at December 31, 2006 on
pages 28-30.
The named executive officers who joined us after 2004 do not
currently participate in the Qualified Plan or the SERP.
Perquisites
Pursuant to our company aircraft use policy, our CEO and such
other of our senior executives as our CEO may designate may use
company aircraft for personal purposes. In addition to personal
use of company aircraft, our CEO until December 31, 2006,
received certain other perquisites, including automobile
allowance, tax and estate planning services, and personal
residence security. Effective January 1, 2007, our
Compensation Committee discontinued all such CEO perquisites
except for personal use of company aircraft. The Committee and
Board of Directors mandated that our CEO continue to use company
aircraft whenever possible, including for personal travel, in
view of the national geographic dispersion of our facilities and
operations and as a key part of our security plan for our CEO.
When our CEO or another senior executive uses company aircraft
for primarily personal purposes in accordance with our company
aircraft use policy, the executive is taxed on the value of such
use as imputed income in accordance with applicable
Internal Revenue Service rules and
19
regulations. We report this imputed income on the
executives
Form W-2,
and, in addition, gross up this amount by paying and
withholding additional compensation to the executive in an
amount sufficient to defray all resulting federal, state, local,
and employment taxes on such imputed income and additional
compensation.
Compensation of Chief Executive Officer
The compensation policies described above also apply to the
compensation of our CEO Mr. Ormond. Our Compensation
Committee determines our CEOs salary level and all awards
and grants to him under our compensation programs
incentive components. The Committee believes that
Mr. Ormond bears primary responsibility for increasing the
value of stockholder investments and that, therefore, a
substantial portion of his compensation should be
incentive-based, providing greater compensation as direct and
indirect financial measures of stockholder value increase. The
Committee also believes that the complex and volatile health
care environment in which we operate requires a high degree of
leadership, innovation, and prudent risk-taking in order to meet
and sustain corporate objectives for increasing stockholder
value. Accordingly, the Committee structures and administers our
CEOs compensation to motivate and reward his successful
exercise of these skills.
Our Compensation Committee and the other independent directors
on our Board of Directors believe that our performance in 2006
again continued at the very high level it has achieved in the
past several years when measured not only against internal goals
and criteria as described above, but also against the
performance of others in our primary industries. As reflected in
the Performance Graph that appears in the inside back cover of
our Annual Report to Shareholders that accompanies this Proxy
Statement, the total return to our stockholders for at least the
last five years has far outpaced that of key competitors in our
industry. Our performance in 2006 continued this trend, as we
finished the year with significantly stronger financial results
and operating performance than any other major organization in
our industry. The Committees decisions with respect to our
CEO recognize his continued strong leadership in achieving these
outstanding results in 2006 as well as his ongoing efforts in
implementing strategic initiatives to enhance long-term investor
value and in achieving the high quality of care maintained
throughout our organization. Finally, during 2006, we
successfully completed the transition to new executive officers
in key positions, primarily as a result of our CEOs
leadership and the succession planning and implementation he
successfully undertook and completed. Accordingly, the Committee
believes that our CEOs compensation for 2006 was directly
related to our overall performance as measured by the several
factors identified above. Finally, as noted above under
Performance Award Plan, the Committee has not yet made a
2007-2009
PAP Award to our CEO and is currently reviewing continuation of
the PAP program and alternatives to its continuation.
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
We have reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of
Regulation S-K,
and, based on such review and discussions, we have recommended
to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and
Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement and incorporated by
reference into the companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2007.

Summary Compensation Table
The following table shows the compensation for 2006 of each of
our named executive officers (as determined pursuant to the
SECs disclosure requirements for executive officer
compensation in Item 402 of
Regulation S-K),
consisting of our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial
Officer, our former Chief Financial Officer who retired during
2006, our three other most highly compensated executive officers
who were serving at the end of 2006, and two other executive
officers who are among our three most highly compensated
executive officers for 2006 but who were not serving at the end
of 2006, because they retired during the year.
During 2006, we employed certain of our executive officers,
including each of the named executive officers, pursuant to
employment
and/or
severance agreements. The agreements entitle the officers to
receive their base salaries, to participate in our designated
benefit and compensation plans, and to receive certain
post-termination benefits. Each agreement also provides that the
officers base salary may be adjusted periodically and that
we may at any time adjust or terminate benefit plans in which
the officer is entitled to participate, so long as no vested or
accrued benefit is adversely affected. Each agreement provides
that the officers employment is not for any specified term
and may be terminated at any time. Each agreement also contains
non-competition and non-solicitation obligations on the
officers part, for three years in the case of
Messrs. Ormond and Guillard (and in the case of
Messrs. Weikel, Meyers, and Bixler, who retired during
2006), for two years in the case of Messrs. Cavanaugh and
Parr, and for one year in the case of Mr. Graham.
Additional information with respect to our post-termination
payment obligations under the employment and severance
agreements is set forth under Potential Payments Upon
Termination or Change in Control Employment and
Severance Agreements on
pages 31-33
of this proxy statement.

|
and related plan are discussed further under Nonqualified
Deferred Compensation for 2006 on pages 30-31.
|
|
|

|
The amounts in this column represent awards earned under the
Annual Incentive Plan. The awards are payable in cash in 2007 or
deferred at the election of the named executive officer.
|
|
|
(3)
|
The amounts in this column represent the expense recognized for
financial statement reporting purposes for the year ended
December 31, 2006, in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based
Payment (Statement 123R), for restricted stock,
restricted stock units, and performance-vested restricted stock.
Prior to the January 2007 amendment to our Equity Incentive
Plan, we based grant-date fair value on the closing market price
on the day prior to grant. Commencing in January 2007,
consistent with that amendment, we use the closing market price
on the date of grant. Additional information on our accounting
for stock-based compensation is included in footnote 13 to
our audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006, included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 21, 2007. The amounts may include expense related
to awards granted prior to 2006. These amounts reflect our
accounting expense for these awards, and may not correspond to
the actual value that will be recognized by the named executive
officer.

The amounts in this column represent the expense recognized for
financial statement reporting purposes for the year ended
December 31, 2006, in accordance with Statement 123R
for stock options awarded in 2006, nonvested stock options
awarded in 2005, and cash-settled stock appreciation rights
(SARs) awarded in 2000 through 2004. The Black-Scholes option
valuation model assumptions used in calculating the grant-date
fair value are included in footnote 13 to our audited
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006,
included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 21, 2007. These amounts reflect our accounting
expense for these awards, and may not correspond to the actual
value that will be recognized by the named executive officer.
|
Mr. Cavanaugh was awarded SARs prior to becoming an
executive officer. Upon adoption of Statement 123R, our SAR
liability was required to be calculated under the fair-value
method instead of the intrinsic-value method. The cumulative
effect of this change is not included in the table, but the
increase in value under the fair-value method is included for
the year ended December 31, 2006.
Stock options awarded prior to 2005 include a reload feature.
The reload feature allows the holder to exercise an option by
delivering shares of our common stock to cover the options
exercise price and withholding taxes. The holder is
automatically granted an additional option for the shares of
common stock delivered. Stock options granted under the reload
feature are vested and expensed immediately. The amounts in this
column related to stock options granted as a result of the
reload feature are as follows: Mr. Ormond
$2,576,189; and Mr. Graham $57,221.
|
|
|
|

|
The amounts in this column represent awards earned under the
Performance Award Plan for the three-year period 2004 through

election of the named executive officer.

Senior Management Savings Plan for Corporate Officers as

The aggregate incremental cost to us for perquisites and other
personal benefits for each of the following named executive
officers: Mr. Ormond $195,693;
Mr. Guillard $23,662;
Mr. Weikel $78,652; Mr. Meyers
$39,377; Mr. Parr $81,565; and
Mr. Bixler $14,973. The amount for
Mr. Ormond represents $136,975 for personal use of the
company aircraft, as well as costs for other personal travel and
entertainment, tax compliance and planning, estate planning, car
allowance and operating costs, cell phone, and home security.
The amount attributable to each such perquisite or benefit,
other than use of the company aircraft, does not exceed the
greater of $25,000 or 10% of the total amount of perquisites for
Mr. Ormond. The amounts for Messrs. Guillard and Parr
represent relocation expenses paid by us based on invoices for
actual costs incurred. The amounts for Messrs. Weikel,
Meyers, and Bixler represent personal use of company aircraft.
The aggregate incremental cost of company aircraft is based on
the hourly fee we pay to our fractional ownership program
provider for personal flights. Because the company aircraft is
used primarily for business travel, fixed costs that do not
change based on usage, such as acquisition costs and monthly
management fees, are excluded from the calculation.

The amounts in these columns reflect awards under our
Performance Award Plan. The employees receive a cash award
payable at the end of the three-year period
(2006-2008).
The total amount of any award payable is determined by our
Compensation Committee and is based on the growth in earnings
per share of common stock over the three-year period, as
established at the beginning of the period. The threshold
reflects the minimum payment level, which is 50 percent of
the target. The maximum reflects 150 percent of the target.
Following his retirement in December 2006, our Compensation
Committee determined that Mr. Weikel was eligible to earn
one third of this award. |

The amounts in these columns reflect performance-vested
restricted stock awards under our Equity Incentive Plan.
One-third of the award relates to performance for each of 2006,
2007 and 2008. The performance-vested shares will vest each year
based on performance in that year against the two-part financial
metric adopted by our Compensation Committee for the year. The
threshold reflects the minimum payment level, which is
25 percent of the target. The maximum represents
225 percent of the target. Once the awards are vested, the
awards are non-forfeitable, but remain restricted until
termination of employment. Once the restricted stock is issued,
the holder will be entitled to receive all dividends or other
distributions paid or made regarding the shares. Mr. Weikel
retired in December 2006, and forfeited his awards for 2007 and
2008. |

|
The awards in this column represent restricted stock units under
our Equity Incentive Plan that earn dividend equivalents which
are forfeitable if the award is not earned. The awards vest one
third on each of the third, fourth, and fifth anniversaries of
the grant date for Messrs. Ormond, Cavanaugh, Parr, and
Graham. In connection with his joining the company in June 2005,
the award for Mr. Guillard vested on March 1, 2007.
The award for Mr. Weikel was granted on January 31,
2006, but was modified on November 1, 2006, to allow the
award to fully vest upon his termination as a result of his
retirement, which occurred in December 2006. Mr. Cavanaugh
received an additional award upon becoming our Chief Financial
Officer on May 6, 2006. Mr. Parr received an award
upon joining us on May, 1, 2006. Common stock is delivered
to the holder upon vesting, except in the case of
Mr. Ormond, whose vested restricted stock units will not be
settled by delivery of shares until his retirement. |

The awards in this column represent stock options under our
Equity Incentive Plan. The stock options with a grant date of
January 31, 2006, cliff-vest in three years, except that
for employees eligible for normal retirement, the options have a
one-year cliff-vesting period. The stock options have a maximum
term of seven years and do not include the reload feature. The
option exercise price represents the market closing price on the
day prior to the grant date. In 2007, we adopted an amendment to
our Equity Incentive Plan to change the option exercise price to
the market closing price on the grant date for future awards.
The stock option for Mr. Weikel was modified on
November 1, 2006, to allow the stock option to be fully
exercisable upon his termination of employment as a result of
his retirement. The stock options with a grant date other than
January 31, 2006, are immediately exercisable pursuant to
the terms of the grant as a result of the reload feature. The
reload feature allows the holder to exercise an option by
delivering shares of our common stock to cover the options
exercise price and withholding taxes. The holder is
automatically granted an additional option for the shares of
common stock delivered. |

The assumptions used in calculating the grant-date fair value
are included in footnote 13 to our audited financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, included
in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 21, 2007. Mr. Weikels restricted stock
units and stock option awards were modified on November 1,
2006. The grant-date fair value includes the incremental expense
as a result of the modification. The grant-date fair value for
the estimated payout of awards under equity incentive plans is
based on the maximum number of shares awardable in column (h). |

Pension Benefits at December 31, 2006
We had a qualified defined benefit pension plan (Qualified Plan)
with previously frozen benefits that was terminated on
December 31, 2006. In the first quarter of 2007, we made
lump-sum distributions to participants or transferred the
account to a licensed insurance company, based on the option
elected by the participant. The years of credited service
include service provided with a predecessor company, because the
assets of the plan at that time were purchased and the
liabilities assumed as part of becoming a public company. The
benefits were frozen for the named executive officers at
different dates. The number of years of credited service and the
actuarial present value of accumulated benefits were determined
using the same plan termination assumptions with those used in
our financial statements.
Our Senior Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) is a nonqualified
plan with a continuation of substantially identical benefits as
the Qualified Plan once those benefits were frozen for certain
officers. The number of years of credited service and the
actuarial present value of accumulated benefits were determined
using the same assumptions consistent with those used in our
financial statements, except for named executive officers
eligible for early retirement without a benefit reduction.
Normal retirement age is age 65. A participant hired before
January 1, 1992, is eligible for early retirement without a
benefit reduction upon attaining age 55 with at least
30 years of credited service or upon attaining age 60
with at least 10 years of credited service.
28
Mr. Ormond is eligible for early retirement benefits under
the SERP. Messrs. Meyers and Bixler were eligible for early
retirement benefits under the SERP at the time of their
retirement. Participants vest in the SERP after five years of
service.
The benefit calculation includes the term average annual
earnings, which represents the average of the three
highest years eligible pay, including salary, bonus earned or
accrued, and amounts earned under the Performance Award Plan.
There are two calculations depending on when the participant
commenced participating in the plan. Mr. Cavanaughs
benefit is based on Method I, and all other participants
are based on the greater benefit under Method I or
Method II.
|
|
|
|
|
The gross retirement benefit under Method I is an annual benefit
based on the addition of the following amounts: (a) the
product of 1.212 percent of the Average Annual Earnings,
multiplied by the number of years of credited service up to 35,
plus (b) the product of 0.176 percent of the Average
Annual Earnings in excess of the maximum amount of annual wages
subject to the tax imposed under the Federal Insurance
Contributions Act (FICA), multiplied by the number of years of
credited service up to 35, plus (c) if a participant has
more than 35 years of credited service, add the product of
0.5 percent multiplied by the Average Annual Earnings
multiplied by each year of credit service in excess of 35.
|
|
|
|
The gross retirement benefit under Method II is an annual
benefit based on the following amounts: (a) the product of
50.0 percent of the Average Annual Earnings, less
(b) the product of 50.0 percent of the Social Security
Benefit, then
|
|
|
|
|
O
|
if the participant has less than 35 years of service:
multiply the total of (a) less (b) by the number of
years of credited service divided by 35; or
|
|
|
O
|
if the participant has more than 35 years of service: add
to the total of (a) less (b) the product of
0.5 percent multiplied by the Average Annual Earnings
multiplied by each year of credit service in excess of 35.
|
Our SERP retirement benefit represents the gross retirement
benefit, reduced by the Qualified Plan benefit. Our SERP
retirement benefit is distributed in its entirety six months
after the participants retirement date. For the named
executive officers who are participants in our SERP, with the
exception of Mr. Ormond, the participant is reimbursed for
the payment of taxes related to our SERP benefit, as described
in more detail on page 35. Because of
Mr. Ormonds circumstances, he will not receive a
reimbursement of taxes related to his SERP benefit, which is
described in more detail on page 35.

The assumptions used in calculating the actuarial present value
of accumulated benefits are included in footnote 14 to our
audited financial statements for the year ended

Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 21, 2007. |

Messrs. Guillard and Parr are not participants in either
benefit plan. |

|
Mr. Weikels SERP benefit will be distributed six
months after his retirement date along with the reimbursement
for the payment of taxes, which we estimate to be $4,056,688. |
|
(4) |
|
Mr. Meyers reimbursement for the payment of taxes of
$5,111,392 is included in column (i) of the Summary
Compensation Table. |
|

|
Mr. Bixlers reimbursement for the payment of taxes of
$2,241,582 is included in column (i) of the Summary
Compensation Table. |
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation for 2006
The following table provides information on the unfunded,
nonqualified deferred compensation of the named executive
officers in 2006 related to our Senior Management Savings Plan
for Corporate Officers. Certain officers, including named
executive officers, may defer up to 100 percent of salary,
bonus, and awards earned under the Performance Award Plan.
Deferral elections are made in December for amounts to be earned
in the following year. Our contribution represents
50 percent of the participants deferral, up to a
maximum of 3% of salary and bonus, which is credited to the
corporate bond fund for executive officers. Our contributions
are fully vested after completing four years of service.
Distributions due to retirement will be made as a lump-sum cash
payment or in annual installments, based on the
participants election. Distributions due to termination of
employment will be made as a lump-sum cash payment.
Distributions for pre-2005 balances will be made upon retirement
or termination of employment. Distributions for balances
accumulated in 2005 and later require a six-month waiting period.
The notional investment options include the Manor Care Stock
Fund, seven publicly available mutual funds and a corporate bond
fund. The participants may change their deferral into these
options or transfer balances an unlimited number of times,
except for the Manor Care Stock Fund, which is subject to
limitations imposed by our insider trading policy. The rate of
return for the year ended December 31, 2006, for the
investment options are as follows: Manor Care Stock
Fund-19.65 percent, Harbor Bond Institutional Fund-
30
3.91 percent, Harbor Capital Appreciation Institutional
Fund-2.33 percent, Harbor International Institutional
Fund-32.69 percent, Harbor Money Market
Fund-4.75 percent, Harbor Large Cap Value Institutional
Fund-16.11 percent, Janus Fund-10.59 percent and
Vanguard Explorer Fund-9.70 percent. With the exception of
the Manor Care Stock Fund and Vanguard Explorer Fund, these
funds are not available in our qualified 401(k) plan, because we
changed our provider and investment options for our 401(k) plan
in January 2006. However, because these funds were previously
included in our 401(k) plan and are available to the public, we
do not consider the earnings on these funds to be above-market
earnings. The remaining fund, a corporate bond fund, earns a
corporate bond yield plus 2 percent, which we consider to
have above-market earnings. The annual rate of return for this
fund for the year ended December 31, 2006 is
7.56 percent.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
Employment
and Severance Agreements
If a named executive officer is terminated other than for
Cause (as defined in the employment
and/or
severance agreements we have entered into with our named
executive officers as described under Summary Compensation
Table above), we would continue to pay the officers
base salary for one year, except in the case of
Messrs. Ormond, Guillard, Cavanaugh, and Parr. If
terminated other than for cause, Messrs. Ormond and
Guillard would receive salary continuation for three years, and
Messrs. Cavanaugh and Parr would receive salary
continuation for two years. Messrs. Ormond and Guillard
would also receive increased severance benefits if terminated
following a Change in Control (as defined in the agreements)
other than for Cause or due to death or disability, or, with
respect to Mr. Ormond, under limited circumstances if he
voluntarily terminates his employment.
The following table shows the amounts that would be payable
under each current named executive officers employment
and/or severance agreement if the named executive officers
employment had been terminated, including as a result of his
death or disability, as of December 31, 2006. Such amounts
represent the multiple of base salary described above for each
such named executive officer, plus other benefits, as
31
noted. The amounts that would have been payable to
Messrs. Weikel, Meyers, and Bixler are not included in the
table, because each retired in 2006 and is therefore not subject
to a current employment agreement or severance agreement. The
post-termination benefits actually awarded
and/or paid
to Messrs. Weikel, Meyers, and Bixler are described above
in the Summary Compensation Table, the Grants of
Plan-Based Awards for 2006 table, the Pension Benefits at
December 31, 2006 table, and the Nonqualified
Deferred Compensation for 2006 table, as well as below under
Other Severance Arrangements. Their equity
awards that vested
and/or they
exercised during 2006 are described above in the Option
Exercises and Stock Vested for 2006 table.

Change in Control is defined in
Mr. Ormonds and Mr. Guillards agreements
generally to include certain corporate transactions such as our
merger or consolidation with or into another entity, our
reorganization, or our transfer of assets such that the holders
of our outstanding stock immediately prior to the transaction
hold less than 65% of the combined voting power of the
outstanding stock of the entity resulting from the transaction
or acquiring our assets, as the case may be. In the case of
Mr. Ormonds agreement, change in control
specifically excludes a merger of equals transaction, and, to
the extent not constituting such a transaction, also includes
(a) the acquisition by any person (as used in
Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934)(other than one of our subsidiaries or
employee benefit plans) of 15% or more of our outstanding stock,
(b) our filing of a report or proxy statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing that a change in
control has occurred or will occur in the future pursuant to any
then-existing contract or transaction, and (c) during any
12-month
period, directors incumbent at the beginning of the period cease
for any reason to constitute a majority of our directors;
provided, that any director who is first elected, or first
nominated for election by our shareholders, by a vote of at
least one-half of the directors (or a committee thereof) then
still in office who were directors at the beginning of the
period will be deemed to have been a director at the beginning
of the period. |
|
(2) |
|
Cause is defined in the agreements as an
executives financial dishonesty, fraud in the performance
of his duties, willful failure to perform assigned duties, or
the commission of a felony. |
|
(3) |
|
Payments resulting from termination as a result of death or
disability are reduced by any survivor benefits (other than life
insurance proceeds) or disability benefits received under our
plans, programs, or policies, as applicable, by the executive,
the executives spouse or other designated beneficiary, or
the executives legal guardian. In the case of
Messrs. Ormond, Cavanaugh, and Graham, the survivor
benefits to which they would be entitled exceed the multiple of
base salary depicted in the table and would therefore entirely
offset these amounts. |
32
|
|
|
(4) |
|
See Other Severance Arrangements below for a description
of certain other severance arrangements applicable to
Messrs. Ormond, Cavanaugh, and Graham, as well as the
retired named executive officers Messrs. Weikel, Meyers,
and Bixler, related to the treatment of outstanding split-dollar
and other life insurance policies. |
|
(5) |
|
If, following a Change in Control or merger of equals
transaction, certain specified events occur, Mr. Ormond
may, within either the
6-month
period following the occurrence of the event or within
180 days after the first anniversary of the Change in
Control or merger of equals transaction, terminate his
employment and receive the severance benefits described. The
specified events include, among other things, (a) a change
in Mr. Ormonds office or position or his removal as a
director, (b) a significant, adverse change in the nature
or scope of his authorities, powers, function, duties, or
responsibilities, (c) a reduction in his base compensation,
(d) a material reduction in his employee benefits, and
(e) the relocation of our principal executive offices that
lengthens his commute by more than 25 miles or necessitates
that he travel in excess of 20% more than required prior to the
Change in Control. In addition, Mr. Ormond may receive the
severance benefits described if he terminates his employment for
any reason or without reason at any time during the period
commencing on the first anniversary of a Change in Control (but
not a merger of equals transaction) and ending on the earlier to
occur of (x) 180 days after such anniversary, and
(y) his death. |
|
(6) |
|
In addition to three years base salary, the amount payable
to Mr. Ormond in the event of his termination of his
employment following a Change in Control as described in
Note 5, or the termination of his employment by the company
without Cause within three years following a Change in Control
or merger of equals transaction, includes three times
(a) Mr. Ormonds maximum bonus amount under the
Annual Incentive Plan for the year in which termination occurs
(for 2006 $2,050,000), and
(b) Mr. Ormonds maximum Performance Award Plan
award for the year in which termination occurs (for
2006 $814,500). This amount would be payable in a
lump sum within five business days following the termination
date. In addition, the company must (a) provide
Mr. Ormond with group medical, dental, and vision benefits
(at a value of approximately $26,458) and with office space,
furnishings, and secretarial support for a period of three years
(at an estimated value of approximately $150,000),
(b) fully fund certain life insurance benefits as described
in Other Severance Arrangements below, (c) credit
Mr. Ormond with an additional thirty-six months of service
for purposes of determining service credits and benefits due and
payable under our retirement income, supplemental retirement,
and other benefit plans in which he participates, and
(d) make an additional payment or payments in the amount of
any excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code (the Code) as a result of any payments
being considered contingent on a change in ownership or
control within the meaning of Section 280G of the
Code (or similar state or local tax), plus an amount sufficient
to defray all resulting federal, state, and local taxes on such
additional payment or payments. Based on a December 31,
2006, termination date, the crediting of an additional
thirty-six months of service under retirement income,
supplemental retirement, and other benefits plans would result
in an increase of approximately $1,329,975 in
Mr. Ormonds accumulated pension benefits as set forth
in column (d) of the Pension Benefits at
December 31, 2006 table on page 30. Also based on
a December 31, 2006 termination date, we do not believe
that we would have been required to make any additional payments
to Mr. Ormond in respect of any such excise taxes. |
|
(7) |
|
In addition to three years base salary, the amount payable
to Mr. Guillard in the event of his termination without
cause by the company within two years following a change in
control (a) includes the target amount of his award under
the Annual Incentive Plan for the year in which termination
occurs, and (b) would be increased by the target amount of
any PAP Award for the year in which termination occurs or the
year nearest to the year in which termination occurs. In
addition, the company must provide Mr. Guillard with group
medical, dental, and vision benefits for a period of three
years; the value of these additional benefits would be
approximately $26,458. |
|
(8) |
|
There is no differentiation between amounts payable as a result
of termination without cause and termination without cause
following a change in control. |

Equity
Awards
Certain of the named executive officers equity awards
provide for accelerated vesting under certain circumstances:
Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights
(SARs). Vesting is accelerated upon death, total
disability, normal retirement, or early retirement with the
consent of our Compensation Committee. If there is a change in
control (defined in a manner generally consistent with the
definition in Mr. Guillards employment agreement, as
described above in Note 1 of the Severance Benefits
Under Employment Agreements table above), the vesting may be
accelerated, except if, in connection with such an event, the
award is assumed or substituted for a new award.
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
(RSUs). Vesting is accelerated upon death, total
disability, or retirement with the consent of our Compensation
Committee. If there is a change in control (defined in a manner
generally consistent with the definition in
Mr. Guillards employment agreement, as described
above in Note 1 of the Severance Benefits Under
Employment Agreements table above), the vesting may be
accelerated, except if in connection with such an event that the
award is assumed or substituted for a new award.
For each of the current named executive officers, the following
table sets forth the aggregate value of the equity awards whose
vesting is accelerated upon a termination of employment due to
death, disability, or retirement or upon certain changes in
control, assuming that the named executive officers
termination of employment had occurred as of December 31,
2006, based on our closing stock price of $46.92 on that date.

Deferred
Compensation
The named executive officers participate in our Senior
Management Savings Plan for Corporate Officers deferred
compensation plan that permits the deferral of salary, bonus,
and PAP awards. The last column of the Nonqualified Deferred
Compensation for 2006 table on page 31 sets forth each
named executive officers aggregate balance at
December 31, 2006, under this plan. The named executives
are entitled to receive the amount in their deferred
compensation account in the event of termination of employment,
but they do not receive any unvested employer match and earnings
on that match unless termination of employment is a result of
death, disability or retirement. The account balances continue
to accrue interest income or dividend payments, as applicable,
between the termination event and the date distributions are
made, and therefore amounts received by the named executive
officers would differ slightly from those shown in the table.
See the narrative accompanying that table for more information
on distributions under the plan.
Pension
Benefits
The Pension Benefits at December 31, 2006 table on
page 30 describes the general terms of each pension plan in
which the named executive officers participate, the years of
credited service, and the present value of each named executive
officers accumulated pension benefit. If a named executive
officer who participates in the SERP dies prior to retirement,
the named executive officers beneficiary will receive the
greater of (a) a survivor death benefit plus three times
the officers base salary, or (b) the present value
of
34
accumulated benefits in the table. Assuming the named executive
officer had died on December 31, 2006, the beneficiary for
the following named executive officers would have received the
following: Mr. Ormond $20,521,784;
Mr. Cavanaugh $1,529,046; and
Mr. Graham $1,738,110.
Other
Severance Arrangements
During 2003, based upon the recommendations of outside
consultants, our Compensation Committee approved and we entered
into amendments to the severance agreements or the employment
agreements of Messrs. Weikel, Cavanaugh, Meyers, Bixler,
and Graham and certain other executive officers. These
amendments were entered into to address several issues relating
to the collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance
arrangements we entered into to help fund our obligations under
our Senior Executive Retirement Plan (SERP). These issues arose
as the result of: (1) the prohibitions on loans to
executive officers under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the
possible interpretation that split-dollar arrangements may
constitute prohibited loans; (2) a contractual obligation
to fund the SERP triggered by the HCR-Manor Care transaction in
1998; and (3) the impact of recent tax law changes on the
tax treatment of split-dollar policies. Pursuant to these
amendments, if the employees employment is terminated by
reason of death, retirement (after early retirement age under
the SERP) or for reasons other than cause (as defined in the
employment or severance agreement), then at such time we agreed
to: (1) waive or release a portion of the corporate
interest in the cash value of the policies in the event that
there is a shortfall between the cash value and the SERP
benefit; and (2) make a payment to the employee which after
payment of taxes on this additional payment will be sufficient
to pay income and related payroll taxes imposed on the release
of the corporate interest, any shortfall payments and any
employee retained interest in the policies. Each executive also
agreed to extend his or her non-competition obligations by an
additional year as part of these amendments.
In 2004, also based upon the recommendations of outside
consultants, our Compensation Committee approved and we entered
into certain agreements with Mr. Ormond which were designed
to address substantially the same issues as described above for
the other named executive officers relating to collateral
assignment split-dollar life insurance arrangements. Because
certain of Mr. Ormonds split-dollar policies were
held in an irrevocable life insurance trust, different
undertakings were necessary in Mr. Ormonds situation
in order to cost-effectively and fairly address the issues
presented. In addition, an agreement with the trustee of
Mr. Ormonds trusts was necessary. Under these
agreements, we will pay in cash the full amount of
Mr. Ormonds benefit under the SERP upon his
retirement and in accordance with its provisions. The corporate
interest in the cash value of the split-dollar policies will be
repaid in annual installments by Mr. Ormond following his
retirement, commencing with the first full calendar year after
retirement. If the corporate interest has not been repaid in
full upon his death, the remainder becomes due and payable at
that time. We also agreed to make an additional payment to
Mr. Ormond each year in an amount such that after payment
of all income, employment and gift taxes on such payment,
Mr. Ormond retains an amount sufficient to pay (1) all
income, employment and gift taxes on income imputed to him under
Section 101 of the Internal Revenue Code as a result of the
policies; and (2) the annual repayment of the corporate
interest on the policies. As with the other executives,
Mr. Ormond agreed to extend his non-competition obligations
by an additional year in consideration of these agreements.
During 2004, our Compensation Committee also approved and we
entered into a further agreement with Mr. Ormond, the
benefits of which are contingent upon his remaining an employee
with us until at least age 60. Under this agreement, we
would purchase a life insurance policy on his life with premiums
payable in the total amount of $3.4 million over five
years. The policy would be owned by us and will be transferred
to Mr. Ormond upon his retirement after attaining
age 60. If Mr. Ormond voluntarily terminates his
employment prior to age 60, we would continue as owner of
the policy and he would have no rights under the policy and we
would have no further obligations under this agreement. If
Mr. Ormonds employment terminates prior to
age 60 for reasons other than cause (as defined), or due to
death, disability or voluntary termination following a corporate
transaction, a reduction in his overall compensation
opportunities or a material reduction in his responsibilities,
Manor Care would transfer ownership of the policy to him on the
first day following such termination.
35
In 2003, our Compensation Committee also approved and we entered
into split-dollar assignment termination agreements with
Messrs. Ormond, Weikel, Cavanaugh, Meyers, Bixler, and
Graham, along with certain other executive officers with respect
to the collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance
arrangements which funded our obligations under our senior
executive and corporate officer life insurance program. The
termination agreements were entered into due to (1) the
prohibitions on loans to executive officers under the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and (2) the impact of recent tax
law changes on the treatment of split-dollar policies. Under
each termination agreement, we agreed to: (1) waive or
release a portion of the corporate interest in the policies to
the extent necessary to sustain the policies with a death
benefit equal to two times the employees salary as of the
date of the agreement without payment of additional premiums;
(2) provide a payment to the employee, which after payment
of all income and related payroll taxes on the payment, the
employee would retain an amount sufficient to pay the income and
related payroll taxes on the release of the corporate interest;
and (3) make supplemental payments to the extent necessary
to: (a) provide cash value in the policies sufficient to
sustain the death benefit to which the employee is entitled
under this program; (b) increase the death benefit
available to account for future salary increases; and
(c) maintain the death benefit in the event of a shortfall.
Please see the discussion of the SERP on pages 28-30 of
this proxy statement and of nonqualified deferred compensation
on pages 30-31 of this proxy statement. Under these plans,
distributions are made up to six months after the date of
retirement
and/or
termination.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
To attract and retain qualified directors, we use a combination
of cash and stock compensation. In setting director
compensation, we consider the significant amount of time that
Board of Directors service requires, as well as the experience
and skills required of directors.
Cash
Compensation to Directors
We pay each non-management director an annual retainer fee of
$40,000 and a $2,000 fee for each Board meeting and $1,500 for
each committee meeting, except for committee meetings that are
not held in conjunction with a regular or special Board meeting.
For each such committee meeting, directors who attend in person
receive $2,500. Committee chairs receive an additional $1,000
for each committee meeting. We pay such fees in cash quarterly;
directors may defer such cash compensation under the Deferred
Compensation Plan for Outside Directors, but none did so during
2006. We also reimburse non-management directors for reasonable
out-of-pocket
expenses in the performance of their duties as directors.
Management directors do not receive additional compensation for
service on the Board of Directors.
Stock
Compensation to Directors
Pursuant to our stockholder-approved Equity Incentive Plan, each
non-management director is entitled to receive stock options,
restricted stock, or restricted stock units, as recommended by
our Governance Committee and approved by our Board of Directors.
Under this Plan, each director currently receives approximately
$100,000 of restricted stock upon election to the Board, and,
after completing one year of service, an additional award on the
first business day immediately following each annual stockholder
meeting. During 2006, each non-employee director received
2,200 shares of restricted stock under the terms of the
Plan. The restricted stock granted to the directors remains
restricted until the director retires or otherwise leaves the
Board. Any discretionary grants of stock options would be at the
fair market value of our stock on the date of grant.
Additionally, each grant would be subject to such terms and
conditions as our Board of Directors may determine, including
vesting.

The amounts in this column represent the expense recognized for
financial statement reporting purposes for the year ended
December 31, 2006, in accordance with Statement 123R
for restricted stock awarded in 2006 and prior years. The
grant-date fair value is based on the closing market price on
the day prior to grant. In 2006, each non-management director
was issued 2,200 restricted shares with a grant-date fair value
of $99,132, which was expensed immediately. Additional
information on the accounting for stock-based compensation is
included in footnote 13 to our audited financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2006, included in our
Annual Report on
Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 21, 2007. The aggregate number of stock awards
outstanding at December 31, 2006, is as follows for each
director: Ms. Behrens 5,200; Mr. Damico 7,700;
Mr. Longfield 7,700; Mr. Schwieters 7,700;
Mr. Tuttle 5,200; Ms. Wilensky 7,700; and
Mr. Young 7,700. The shares are non-forfeitable but remain
restricted until the director retires or otherwise leaves the
Board. Once the restricted stock is issued, the director is
entitled to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or
made regarding the shares. |

The aggregate number of option awards outstanding at
December 31, 2006, is as follows for each director with
such awards: Mr. Damico 9,000; Mr. Longfield 45,000;
Mr. Schwieters 36,000; Ms. Wilensky 18,000; and
Mr. Young 9,000. Prior to 2004, each non-management
director received stock option awards that vested immediately. |
SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Based upon a review of filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and written representations of our directors and
executive officers, we believe that all of our directors and
executive officers timely filed all reports required to be filed
in 2006 under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, with the following exceptions. Mr. Meyers
inadvertently filed one report one day late regarding delivery
of 4,025 shares to pay withholding taxes.
Mr. Cavanaugh inadvertently filed one late report with
respect to two delinquent transactions representing a total of
7 shares, resulting from the automatic reinvestment of
dividends he received on our stock. In each case, a Form 4
was filed promptly upon discovery of the omission.
OTHER BUSINESS
As of the date of this proxy statement, we know of no other
matters to be presented for your consideration at the annual
meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented for a
vote at the meeting, the proxy holders will vote on such matters
in the manner they consider to be in your and the other
stockholders best interests.
