Adcock Ingram Integrated Report 2018
Remuneration continued NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS Fees paid to non-executive directors are based on various market surveys conducted by Adcock Ingram to ensure that they are market related, based amongst other considerations, on the director’s skills and years of experience. The surveys are conducted on an annual basis and reviewed by the Remuneration Committee. The recommendation of the Remuneration Committee on the proposed fees is submitted to the Board for consideration before being proposed to shareholders for consideration and approval at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). If approved, the fees become effective in the month following the AGM. Terms for non-executive directors The terms and conditions applicable to the appointment of non-executive directors are contained in a letter of engagement which, together with the Board Charter and respective Committees’terms of reference, form the basis of the director’s appointment. The Board recently adopted a resolution and directors who have reached a nine (9) year tenure, should automatically retire from the Board, subject to appropriate succession and Board composition requirements being in place. Furthermore, directors who have been on the Board for more than six (6) years, will be subjected to a stringent annual independence test. The Nominations Committee plays an important role in the appointment of new and suitable directors as well as the identification and removal of underperforming or unsuitable directors. The Company’s Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI) provides that at least one-third of the non-executive directors retires by rotation every year and, if eligible, may offer themselves for re-election by shareholders.
