Executive Compensation Components

Our executive compensation consists of base salary, cash incentive bonuses, long-term incentive compensation, and broad-based benefits programs. We have not adopted any formal guidelines for allocating total compensation between long-term and short-term compensation, cash compensation and non-cash compensation, or among different forms of non-cash compensation. The compensation committee considers a number of factors in setting compensation for our executive officers, including Company performance, as well as the executive’s performance, experience, responsibilities and the compensation of executive officers in similar positions at comparable companies.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table presents information regarding the compensation awarded to, earned by, and paid to each individual who served as our principal executive officer and the two most highly-compensated executive officers (other than the principal executive officer) as of the last day of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (such individuals collectively referred to as our “Named Executive Officers”). The following table also presents information regarding the compensation awarded to, earned by, and paid to each of our Named Executive Officers during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Bonuses

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, we maintained a bonus plan, pursuant to which each of our Named Executive Officers was eligible to earn an annual bonus based on the Company’s and the Named Executive Officer’s achievement of certain performance goals. For fiscal 2016, the target annual bonuses for Messrs. Lockard, Monie and McFeely were equal to 100%, 50% and 60%, respectively, of the applicable Named Executive Officer’s base salary. Based on the Company’s achievement of the relevant performance goals under the bonus plan, as well as each Named Executive Officer’s achievement of the relevant personal performance goals under the bonus plan, our compensation committee determined that the bonuses would be paid at 100% of target for each Named Executive Officer.

In connection with the Company’s successful IPO in July 2016, Messrs. Lockard and Monie were also awarded special bonus payments of $230,000 and $170,000, respectively.

Equity Compensation

We did not grant any of our Named Executive Officers any equity awards during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Health and Welfare Benefits

Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in all of our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, life and disability insurance plans, in each case on the same basis as other employees of the same status.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan that provides all regular employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Under our 401(k) plan, participants may elect to defer a portion of their compensation on a pre-tax basis and have it contributed to the plan subject to the applicable annual limits of the Code. Pre-tax contributions are allocated to each participant’s individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants’ directions. Employee elective deferrals are 100% vested at all times. The 401(k) plan allows for matching contributions to be made by us. Currently, we match up to 25% of the first 8% of deferred compensation. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan and earnings on those contributions are not taxable to the employees until distributed from the 401(k) plan and all contributions are deductible by us when made.

Perquisites and Personal Benefits

We generally do not provide perquisites or personal benefits to our Named Executive Officers other than in connection with the relocation of a Named Executive Officer. We did, however, in 2016, reimburse Mr. McFeely $61,204 for costs he incurred, as well as a tax gross up equal to $27,497, in connection with his relocation to our Scottsdale, Arizona corporate office.

The Company may terminate each Named Executive Officer’s employment for cause by a vote of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose.

The payments and benefits provided under the employment agreements in connection with a change in control may not be eligible for federal income tax deduction for the Company pursuant to Section 280G of the Code. These payments and benefits may also be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code. If the payments or benefits payable to each Named Executive Officer in connection with a change in control would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, then those payments or benefits will be reduced if such reduction would result in a higher net after-tax benefit to him.
