2015 Performance Bonuses
On January 26, 2016, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Instructure, Inc. reviewed the achievement of company and individual performance goals. The 2015 annual performance bonus for Steven B. Kaminsky, Instructure’s Chief Financial Officer, was based upon the achievement of company performance goals and individual performance goals. The company performance goals related to business and financial performance and customer growth and happiness. The individual performance goals consisted of a subjective assessment of Mr. Kaminsky’s individual contributions to Instructure. The Compensation Committee determined that Instructure had achieved 97.1% of the company performance goals and determined that Mr. Kaminsky had achieved 100% of his individual performance goals. As a result, Mr. Kaminsky was awarded 97.7% of his target performance bonus, for a bonus amount equal to $70,440 to be paid in 2016. In addition, the Compensation Committee approved a $10,000 discretionary bonus to Mr. Kaminsky related to Mr. Kaminsky’s work in connection with Instructure’s initial public offering. Joshua L. Coates, Instructure’s Chief Executive Officer waived his right to receive any performance bonus. Marc T. Maloy, Instructure’s Executive Vice President Worldwide Sales, was not eligible to participate in our executive bonus plan but was eligible to receive sales commissions based on achievement of sales targets.
2016 Performance Bonuses
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Instructure, Inc. has also approved target bonus percentages for 2016 for each of Mr. Kaminsky and Mr. Maloy. Mr. Kaminsky’s annual performance bonus percentage will increase to 50% of his base salary and the bonus determination will again be based upon the achievement of company performance goals and individual performance goals. The company performance goals for 2016 relate to business and financial performance and customer happiness. Mr. Maloy’s annual performance bonus percentage will increase to 75% of his base salary and the sales commissions payable will be based upon the achievement of sales targets.
