Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On January 18, 2011, TrustCo Bank Corp NY (“TrustCo”) reinstated the Executive Officer Incentive Plan effective as of February 1, 2011. The plan provides for the board to set specific, weighted performance goals and bonus levels annually. For 2011, the performance goals, as measured against a peer group, are; return on average assets, return on average equity, efficiency ratio and nonperforming assets to total assets. The peer group is defined as those New York, New Jersey and Florida-based banks and thrifts with assets of $2 billion to $10 billion (as of September 30, 2011) that did not receive funds under the federal government's Troubled Asset Relief Program. If a performance measure is under the peer group median, no incentive award will be given for that particular “performance measure.” Larger bonuses will be paid for better performance compared to the peer group for each performance measure, subject to a maximum bonus to equal 25% of the executive officer’s base salary.
Attached is a copy of the plan labeled as Exhibit 99(a).
