  • In 2022 the Company sold its minority interest in Maui Jim, Inc. (“Maui Jim”) to Kering Eyewear for cash proceeds of $686.6 million.
  • The Company recognized a net realized gain of $571.0 million as a result of the sale.
  • The RLI Corp. Annual Incentive Compensation Plan, under which the MVP Program operates, provides the HCCC authority to adjust annual performance goals or performance results to exclude the effects of an extraordinary, unusual or nonrecurring event; discontinued operations; or a divestiture, among other events.
  • In 2022 the HCCC revised the MVP Program to provide that the net gain in 2022 from the sale of Maui Jim shares – net of tax; net of transaction costs; and net of one-time transactions bonuses paid to all employees other than the NEOs, a total of $434.4 million - would be excluded from the calculation of the Actual Return (increase in adjusted GAAP book value), which in turn is used to calculate MVP as described on page 37.
  • The HCCC also revised the calculation of MVP under the MVP Program and MIP Guidelines for 2023 and subsequent years to exclude the lesser amount of net gain from the sale of Maui Jim subsequently received by the Company in 2023 and later from certain escrow accounts established at the time of the close of the transaction in 2022.
  • The HCCC made this determination on the basis of a number of factors including: the guiding principles of RLI executive compensation discussed on page 31; the unique one-time nature of the transaction; market precedent for the treatment of gains by other companies from a one-time sale or divestiture transaction; the longstanding nature of the Company’s investment in Maui Jim; RLI’s contractual obligation to sell its Maui Jim shares pursuant to a Shareholder’s Agreement with the majority owner of Maui Jim; and the minority interest held by RLI and resulting lack of direct control over Maui Jim’s business by RLI, among other factors.
  • MVP is also a financial goal in the Management Incentive Program in which Messrs.
  • Diefenthaler and Fick participate, as further explained beginning on page 39, and in Company’s Underwriter Incentive Program and Associate Incentive Program.
  • The net gain from the sale of Maui Jim received by the Company in 2022 and 2023 was excluded from the calculation of MVP achieved in 2022 and 2023 in each of these incentive programs in the same manner and for the same reasons it was excluded from the MVP Program.
