Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan
On March 8, 2017, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Dean Foods Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), established objectives for 2017 short-term incentive payments payable in 2018 to the executive officers and other employees of the Company under the Company’s 2017 Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan.
Short-term incentive payments for executive officers for 2017 will be paid based on the achievement of Company financial performance objectives for 75% of the target payment and each executive officer’s individual performance objectives for the remaining 25%. The payout factor for both the financial performance component and the individual performance component of short-term incentive compensation for each executive officer ranges from zero to 200% of each executive officer’s target payment, depending on actual performance in 2017 against the consolidated adjusted operating income target established by the Committee and the officer’s performance rating for 2017. The performance rating is determined by the achievement of the individual performance objectives approved by the Committee.
The portion of the 2017 Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan applicable to the Company’s executive officers is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and this description is qualified entirely by reference thereto.
