Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of
Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On July 27, 2011, the board of directors of registrant approved the form of Clawback Agreement
to be entered into with registrants executive officers: (i) Michael C. Coffman, President and CEO;
(ii) Paul F. Blanchard, Jr., Senior Vice President and COO; (iii) Lonnie J. Lowry, Vice President,
Chief Financial Officer and Secretary; (iv) Ben Spriestersbach, Vice President of Land; and (v)
Robb P. Winfield, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer (collectively, Executive Officers).
The Clawback Agreement requires a clawback of incentive compensation paid to Executive
Officers in the event registrants financial statements are restated due to material noncompliance
with the financial reporting requirements of the federal securities laws and the application of
such restated financial statements would create an excess of what would have been paid to Executive
Officers under registrants incentive compensation plans during the three-year period preceding the
date of such restatement.
ITEM 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On July 27, 2011, the board of directors of registrant amended and restated registrants
bylaws by deleting Sections 1.12 and 1.13 and replacing such Sections with new Sections 1.12, 1.13
and 1.14. Former Section 1.14 became Section 1.15.
The new Sections modify and clarify the advance notice and director qualification provisions
of registrants bylaws. Section 1.12 provides what persons may be nominated as directors and what
other business may be brought before Annual and Special Meetings of shareholders. Section 1.13
provides how nominations for directors and other business may be properly brought before Annual and
Special Meetings of shareholders and the prescribed time periods for doing so. Section 1.14
requires that to be eligible to be a nominee for election as a director, certain information must
be delivered to registrant within prescribed time periods.
