On February 9, 2008, the Management Development, Nominating and Governance Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the payment of bonuses for 2007 to the following named executive officers:
| Name | Title | Amount |
|---|---|---|
Curt S. Culver |
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer | $480,000 |
Patrick Sinks |
President and Chief Operating Officer | $209,250 |
J. Michael Lauer |
Executive Vice President and Chief | $202,950 |
| Financial Officer | ||
Lawrence J. Pierzchalski |
Executive Vice President- Risk | $180,000 |
| Management | ||
Jeffrey H. Lane |
Executive Vice President, General | $183,600 |
| Counsel and Secretary |
The Committee decided to pay bonuses for 2007 to officers of the Company, including the officers named above, of approximately 25% of the amount paid to this group for 2006 to recognize the significant contribution they made in connection with the proposed merger with Radian Group Inc. and because their work achieved the Company’s objectives in entering the merger agreement in February 2007, planning for the integration of the two companies and terminating the merger in September 2007, when market conditions had changed. The Committee believed these factors warranted bonuses at this level even though the Company did not meet certain of the financial goals involving net income and return on equity that the Committee had approved in January 2007.
