    Lindsay will reimburse outside Directors for actual and reasonable expenses they incur associated with travel for Lindsay meetings or other Lindsay business, including first class commercial airfare (or travel by private plane for distances of less than 1,000 miles if commercial air travel is difficult or inconvenient or more than 1,000 miles if authorized or approved by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Audit Committee), car rental, taxi, parking, meals, tips and hotel expenses. Reimbursement for other expenses may be authorized or approved by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

 

    Directors who are not employees of the Company receive annual grants of restricted stock units with an award value of $70,000 with the grant being made on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders. The number of units awarded will equal $70,000 divided by the closing stock price on the date of grant. These restricted stock units vest on November 1 following the date of grant.


    New directors who are not employees of the Company that join the Board of Directors at a time other than the annual meeting of stockholders receive a one-time grant of restricted stock units with an award value equal to the prorated amount of the last annual grant of restricted stock units based on the amount of time the new director will serve on the Board of Directors until the next annual meeting of stockholders, with the grant being made on the date of their first regular Board meeting as a director. The number of units awarded will equal the prorated amount divided by the closing stock price on the date of grant. These restricted stock units vest on the earlier of November 1 following the date of grant or the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders. For the sake of clarity, this prorated grant of restricted stock units will not apply to a new director who joins the Board of Directors at an annual meeting of the stockholders.
