OUR SERVICES

Executive compensation programs implicate a vast array of accounting, tax, and legal rules that are complex and subject to frequent change. Determining how these rules impact the design and implementation of executive total rewards requires both an intricate knowledge of how compensation programs work, and an in-depth understanding of how the technical issues affect both design and administration.

Exequity's executive compensation technical expertise is unsurpassed in the industry. Our consultants are steeped in the legal, tax, and accounting considerations that impact executive compensation. Three of our senior advisors led technical centers of expertise at large, global HR consulting firms—we have the breadth and depth you need to address all types of technical executive compensation issues.

Our technical and legal executive compensation services include:

• Proxy disclosure (including all narrative and tabular disclosures) and other required securities law disclosures (e.g., 8-Ks);
• Tax issues (including 409A, the $1 million cap on deductible pay, and golden parachute excise tax calculations and mitigation);
• Accounting implications of executive pay arrangements;
• Securities law issues (e.g., Section 16 compliance);
• Compliance with share dilution mandates established by institutional shareholder groups; and
• Contractual review and drafting (e.g., employment agreements, severance protections, incentive arrangements).
