A 10b5-1 Trading Plan is a pre-arranged plan for trading company stock in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b5-1. Under such plans, the executive officer or director does not retain any discretion over the execution of such transactions, which a broker executes in a predetermined manner, typically over a period of time. Such a plan is used to achieve portfolio diversification and liquidity objectives while avoiding concerns about initiating stock transactions when aware of nonpublic information. Pre-arranged trading plans can also benefit shareholders by reducing or eliminating the market disruption that could otherwise occur if executive officers and directors were to conduct all of their transactions in relatively brief periods.
The Company anticipates that, as permitted by Rule 10b5-1 and its trading policies, other executive officers and directors may establish such plans in the future.
