* Pro-rated reflecting commencement of employment on May 1, 2020.
** Pro-rated through early retirement date of October 31, 2020 pursuant to the terms of the early retirement agreement and release described in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 6, 2020.
(a) Annual incentive compensation awards are converted to U.S. dollars using the conversion rate on February 4, 2021 of CHF 1.00 = $1.10846.
The annual incentive compensation awards were set based on a pre-established matrix formula employing six performance measures.
As set forth in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 10, 2020, Mr. André Calantzopoulos, who is currently serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, will become Executive Chairman of the Board effective immediately before the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 5, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”) and will remain an employee of the Company. Mr. Jacek Olczak, who is currently serving as the Company's Chief Operating Officer, will succeed Mr. Calantzopoulos as Chief Executive Officer effective immediately after the Annual Meeting.
In connection with the foregoing, on February 3, 2021, the Committee approved the following changes to the compensation of Messrs. Olczak and Calantzopoulos, effective May 5, 2021:
Mr. Olczak will be promoted to salary grade 28. His base salary will be increased to CHF 1,350,000 (approximately $1,501,592).2 Mr. Olczak’s annual incentive compensation award target will be at 200% of his new base salary. His equity award target will be at 600% of his new base salary (40% in the form of RSUs and 60% in the form of PSUs). Mr. Olczak’s stock ownership requirement will increase from 5 to 10 times his base salary.
Recognizing the fact that, while he will fully assist in the management transition, Mr. Calantzopoulos will no longer have management responsibility of the Company, he will be removed from the Company's salary grade structure, and his base salary will be reduced from CHF 1,570,010 (approximately $1,746,306) to CHF 1,000,000 (approximately $1,112,290).2 He will no longer be eligible for annual incentive compensation awards. Reflecting his role in assisting the Chief Executive Officer in long-term strategy, Mr. Calantzopoulos will remain eligible for equity compensation awards with a target of 300% of his new base salary (40% in the form of RSUs and 60% in the form of PSUs), compared to his current target of 600%. His stock ownership requirement will be maintained at 10 times his base salary.
Compensation for Messrs. Calantzopoulos and Olczak for 2021 will be pro-rated to reflect the different positions held by each of them during the year.
_________
2 Using the conversion rate on February 3, 2021 of CHF 1.00 = $1.11229.
The Company will provide additional information regarding the compensation of its named executive officers in the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, which will be issued in March 2021.

Mr. Bonin Bough (age 43) was appointed to the Board of Directors effective February 4, 2021. He was appointed to the Finance and Consumer Relationships and Regulation Committees of the Board.

These compensation programs are described in detail in the Company’s proxy statement dated March 26, 2020, and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on such date.
