PART III

ITEM 11. Executive Compensation

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

In this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, we describe our process of determining the compensation and benefits provided to our “Named Executive Officers” (“NEOs”). Our 2016 NEOs are: John G. Boss, President and Chief Executive Officer (our “CEO”); Erick R. Asmussen, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (our “CFO”); and John D. Moran, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.

Oversight of the Executive Compensation Program

The Board of Directors of Momentive, our parent holding company (the “Board”), is responsible for our governance. The Board established a Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) whose responsibility includes reviewing and making recommendations relevant to compensation and benefits of the CEO and other NEOs. The Board has delegated full authority to the Committee related to certain compensatory plans. All executive compensation decisions made during 2016 for our NEOs were made or approved by the Committee.

The Committee sets the principles and strategies that guide the design of our executive compensation program. The Committee annually evaluates the performance and compensation levels of the NEOs. This annual compensation review process includes an evaluation of key objectives and measurable contributions to ensure that incentives are not only aligned with our strategic goals, but also enable us to attract and retain a highly qualified and effective management team. Based on this evaluation, the Committee approves each executive officer’s compensation level, including base salary, as well as annual and long-term incentive opportunities.

Use of Compensation Data

In order to obtain a general understanding of compensation practices when setting total compensation levels for our NEOs, the Committee considers broad-based competitive market data on total compensation packages provided to executive officers with similar responsibilities at comparable companies. Such companies include those within the chemical industry, as well as those with similar revenues and operational complexity outside the chemical industry. As warranted, the Committee will use data obtained from third-party executive compensation salary surveys when determining appropriate total compensation levels for our NEOs.

Executive Summary

Executive Compensation Objectives and Strategy

Our executive compensation program has been designed to set compensation and benefits at a level that is reasonable, internally fair and externally competitive. Specifically, the Committee has been guided by the following objectives:


•	Pay for Performance. We emphasize pay for performance based on achievement of company operational and financial objectives and the realization of personal goals. We believe that a significant portion of each executive’s total compensation should be variable and contingent upon the achievement of specific and measurable financial and operational performance goals.


•	Align Incentives with Shareholders. Our executive compensation program is designed to focus our NEOs on our key strategic, financial and operational goals that will translate into long-term value-creation for our shareholders.


•	Balance Critical Short-Term Objectives and Long-Term Strategy. We believe that the compensation packages we provide to our NEOs should include a mix of short-term, cash-based incentive awards that encourage the achievement of annual goals, and long-term cash and equity elements that reward long-term value-creation for the business.


•	Attract, Retain and Motivate Top Talent. We design our executive compensation program to be externally competitive in order to attract, retain and motivate the most talented executive officers who will drive company objectives.


•	Pay for Individual Achievement. We believe that each executive officer’s total compensation should correlate to the scope of his or her responsibilities and relative contributions to our performance.

2016 Executive Compensation Highlights

The following summary highlights key compensation decisions taken by the Committee in 2016:


•	The Company continues to focus on motivating our NEOs to deliver improved performance and talent-retention through short- and long-term incentives.

•

On May 19, 2016, the Committee approved amendments to outstanding stock option agreements issued under the Company’s Management Equity Plan (the “Plan”), including stock options held by our NEOs. The amendments reduced the exercise price and performance thresholds of the stock options. Specifically, the options were amended to reduce the exercise price from $20.33 per share to $10.25 per share, which the Committee determined represented the current per-share Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of such re-pricing. Further, the amendment provided that the Tranche A Performance Threshold and Tranche B Performance Threshold (each as defined in the applicable award agreement) was reduced from $30.50 per share to $20.00 per share and from $40.66 per share to $25.00 per share, respectively. The repricing of the stock options did not result in additional compensation expense or otherwise trigger a charge to the Company’s earnings in 2016.


•	No additional equity awards were granted to our NEOs under the Plan during 2016.

•

We adopted an annual cash incentive plan for 2016 (the “2016 ICP”), which was designed to reward participants, including our NEOs for achieving specific financial and environmental, health and safety goals. Targets under our 2016 ICP were based on EBITDA and free cash flow metrics included in our annual operating plan as well as environmental, health and safety initiatives to align with shareholder interests.


•	The Committee reviewed the base salaries of our NEOs in the first quarter of 2016. The Committee determined that increases were merited in light of their achievement of specific company, division, and other goals. We implemented our annual merit increases to the base salaries of our NEOs in October 2016.

•

In connection with our efforts to align with market practices and to reduce costs, we made changes to our medical and welfare benefits that impacted a broader population of our employees. Our NEOs were participants in those plans and all such changes applied equally to our NEOs. Specifically, we eliminated retiree medical and life insurance benefits, reduced by one percentage point the amount of annual retirement contribution to the MPM 401(k) Plan, and removed the preferred provider option from our medical plan.


•	We are not currently required to hold a shareholder advisory “say-on-pay” vote.

Evaluating Company and Individual Performance

In determining the 2016 compensation of our NEOs, in addition to taking into consideration market data for similarly situated executives in comparable companies and in other industries, the Committee considered the following individual accomplishments of our NEOs in 2015:

Mr. Boss, our President and Chief Executive Officer: The Committee considered his outstanding leadership during a challenging year in 2015. He built a strong foundation of financial credibility and established a clear vision and strategy for growth. Under his leadership, significant cost-out initiatives were launched and productivity programs were initiated.

Mr. Asmussen, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer: The Committee considered his strong leadership in contributing to our business strategy, managing our financial functions, and enhancing the rigor of our key financial processes.

Mr. Moran, our Senior Vice President and General Counsel: The Committee considered his contributions as a strong legal advisor in corporate governance, strategic initiatives, and compliance programs.

Components of Our Executive Compensation Program

The principal components of our executive compensation program in which NEOs were eligible to participate in during 2016 were as follows:



Type		Components
Annual Cash Compensation		Base Salary
Annual Cash Compensation		Annual Incentive Awards
Long-Term Incentives		Equity Award Adjustments
Benefits		Health, Welfare, and Retirement Benefits
Other		Severance Benefits

The following section describes each of these components in further detail.

1. Annual Cash Compensation

Base Salaries

The annual base salaries of our NEOs are designed to be commensurate with professional status, accomplishments, scope of responsibility, overall impact on the organization, and size and complexity of the business or functional operations managed. The annual base salaries of our NEOs are also intended to be externally competitive with the market.

The Board, the Committee, or the CEO, as applicable (the “Compensation Decision Maker”), reviews each NEOs base salary (i) annually, in conjunction with the annual performance review conducted globally for non-bargained salaried employees, and (ii) in conjunction with new hires, promotions or significant changes in job responsibilities. In approving increases to base salaries, the Compensation Decision Maker considers various factors, such as job performance, total target compensation, impact on value creation and the externally competitive marketplace.

In March 2016, the Committee reviewed market and benchmarking data for our NEOs with recommended compensation adjustments. In making individual recommendations, the Compensation Decision Makers took into account, amongst other variables, the performance ratings of the individuals, positions within the applicable salary range, and the Company’s aggregate merit budget. Merit increases for NEOs were established to be below the overall Company’s merit increase budget. The Committee considered how the merit adjustments fit into the overall compensation package and the need to take into account key employee retention as the Company executes on its cost reduction initiatives. In addition, Mr. Boss received a greater base salary increase since, in reviewing a benchmarking analysis, the Committee determined that his existing base salary was not competitive.

Typically, annual performance reviews are conducted in the first or second quarter of the calendar year and determine whether any increase to base salary is merited based on the prior year’s performance. Base salary increases for our NEOs are generally made effective in July; however, in recognition of the unique challenges faced by us in late 2015, management recommended that such base salary increases be delayed from July 1 to October 1 (or a later date if the Company’s performance further deteriorated relative to the annual operating plan).

In October 2016, each of Messrs. Boss, Asmussen and Moran received a merit increase in base salary in recognition of accomplishments in 2015 (described above under “Evaluating Company and Individual Performance”). As described in further detail above, Mr. Boss also received an additional base salary increase to ensure market competitiveness. The base salaries for 2015 and 2016 and the merit increases (as a % increase from the 2015 base salary) are shown in the table below.



Name	2015 Base Salary	2016 Base Salary	2016 Increase
Name	($)	($)⁽¹⁾	(%)
John G. Boss	605,500	675,000	11.48	%

John D. Moran	390,000	401,700	3.00	%

Annual Incentive Awards

Our annual incentive compensation plan is a short-term performance-based incentive designed to reward participants for delivering increased value to the organization against specific financial and other critical business objectives. Annual incentive compensation is targeted at a level that, when combined with base salary and other components of our total rewards program, is intended to yield total annual compensation that is competitive in the external marketplace. When business performance exceeds target levels, the annual incentive compensation, when combined with base salary and other components of our total rewards program, is intended to yield total annual compensation above the market median.

The performance target components of the annual incentive compensation plan are the same for executives and other eligible, salaried employees, with variations to account for the line of business in which the employee works. We strive to set annual incentive award targets that are achievable only through strong performance, believing that this motivates our executives and other participants to deliver ongoing value-creation, while allowing us to attract and retain highly talented senior executives. Performance measures typically include financial and operational objectives and may take into consideration a number of factors, such as our prior-year performance; current market trends; working capital projections; the realization of planned productivity initiatives; expansion plans; new product development; environmental, health and safety; and other strategic factors that could potentially impact operations.

The 2016 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan

In early 2016, the Committee approved the 2016 annual incentive compensation plan for employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the Board approved the 2016 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2016 ICP”) targets. Under the 2016 ICP, our NEOs and other

eligible participants had the opportunity to earn annual cash incentive compensation based upon the achievement of certain financial and environmental health and safety (EH&S) goals.

The performance goals were established based on the following measures:



Performance Goal	Description	2016 Target
Segment EBITDA	Segment EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude certain noncash items and certain other income and expenses) was used as the primary profitability measure for determining the level of financial performance for management and executive annual incentive compensation purposes. See Item 7 of Part II of this Annual Report for a reconciliation of Segment EBITDA to Net (Loss) Income.	The Segment EBITDA target for 2016 was set based upon factors including, but not limited to, competitive business dynamics in the markets, raw material trends, restructuring initiatives, anticipated business unit growth and business unit budget projections. For the 2016 ICP, the target Segment EBITDA was $230 million.
Cash Flow Component	Operating cash flow is equal to Segment EBITDA less the sum of trading capital improvement and/or usage, capital spending and interest paid along with other operating cash flow items such as income taxes paid and pension contributions. For purposes of the 2016 ICP, the cash flow target is defined as operating cash flow less budgeted capital expenditures. The purpose of this metric is to increase focus on cost control and cost reduction actions to preserve an adequate amount of liquidity to fund operations and capital expenditures, service debt and ultimately sustain the business through difficult economic cycles.	The 2016 ICP cash flow goals were established in connection with the budget process. For the 2016 ICP, the target cash flow component (i.e. operating cash flow less budgeted capital expenditures) was $30 million.
Environment, Health & Safety (“EH&S”)	As a chemical manufacturer, our operations involve the use of hazardous materials, and are subject to extensive environmental regulation. As a result, EH&S is a core value and a critical focus for all employees.	For the 2016 ICP, we established metrics based upon five components: (1) Safety Contacts Training, (2) Occupational Injury & Illness Rate (OIIR), (3) High Risk Activity (HRA) injuries, (4) Fires, and (5) Environmental Incidents. The EH&S goals established under the 2016 ICP for recurring EH&S metrics represented a significant improvement from prior year statistics relating to such metrics. The newly introduced Safety Contracts Training metric is intended to continue to drive focus and improvement in our ongoing commitment to the culture and communities in which we operate.

Each of the 2016 performance goals was measured independently such that a payout of one element was not dependent upon the achievement of the others. This was intended to keep employees focused on driving continuous improvement in EH&S and cash flow, in addition to EBITDA.

Awards under the 2016 ICP were calculated as follows: A target award was identified for each participant under the 2016 ICP based on a percentage of his or her base salary, which varies per participant based on the scope of the participant’s responsibilities and externally competitive benchmarks. The Committee considered how Mr. Boss’s then-annual bonus opportunity compared to applicable benchmarking data and approved an increase to maintain market competitiveness for Mr. Boss. For 2016, the target bonus percentage for Mr. Boss was increased to 100% of his base salary. The target bonus percentage for Messrs. Asmussen and Moran in 2016 remained at 65% and 55% of their respective base salaries, which is unchanged from 2015, as a percentage of base salary.

Actual payout of the 2016 ICP bonus was determined based on the achievement of the performance goals described above, subject to a sliding scale and the relative weightings of the performance goals noted in the table below. 60% of the 2016 ICP Bonus was determined based on achievement of Segment EBITDA goals, with the threshold payout (i.e. payout of 25% of the portion of the 2016 ICP Bonus attributable to Segment EBITDA) requiring achievement of at least 87% of the Segment EBITDA target goal and the maximum payout (i.e. payout of 200% of the portion of the 2016 ICP Bonus attributable to Segment EBITDA) requiring achievement of 109% of the Segment EBITDA target goal. Similarly, the 30% and 10% of the 2016 ICP Bonus attributable to the Cash Flow and EH&S components, respectively, were subject to achievement of a threshold goal (in which case 25% of the portion of the 2016 ICP Bonus attributable to such component would be paid) and a maximum

goal (in which 200% of the portion of the 2016 ICP Bonus attributable to such component would be paid). To the extent that 100% of the applicable target goal was achieved, the portion of the 2016 ICP Bonus payable in respect of the applicable component is 100%. If actual performance was to fall between the threshold and target or between the target and maximum goals for the applicable component of the 2016 ICP Bonus, then the amount payable in respect of such component would be subject to linear interpolation.

The following table summarizes the target awards, performance measures, weightings, achievements and payouts under the 2016 ICP for each our NEOs. The amount paid to each of our NEOs in respect of their participation in the 2016 ICP is reflected in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table shown on page 136.

2. Long-Term Incentive Awards

Equity Awards

The Committee believes that equity awards play an important role in creating incentives to maximize Company performance, motivating and rewarding long-term value-creation, and further aligning the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders.

Our current long-term incentive strategy includes the use of periodic grants, rather than ongoing annual grants of equity. The Committee believes that periodic grants provide an incentive toward a long-term projected value. Our equity awards contain time, performance and service vesting requirements. Awards that are conditioned on time and service vesting requirements function as a retention incentive, while awards that are conditioned on performance and service vesting requirements are linked to the attainment of specific long-term objectives.

On March 12, 2015, the Board approved the MPMH Equity Plan pursuant to which Momentive can award stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock and other stock-based awards. The purpose of the MPMH Equity Plan is to assist us in attracting, retaining, incentivizing and motivating employees and to promote the success of our business by aligning participant interests with those of our shareholders. In 2015, the Committee approved grants under the MPMH Equity Plan of restricted stock units and stock options to our NEOs. Other than the stock option repricing described above, no awards were granted to our NEOs under the Plan during 2016.

The MPMH Equity Plan is described further in the “Narrative to Outstanding Equity Awards Table” below.

Cash Awards

From time to time, the Committee approved long-term cash awards or plans for our key employees, including our NEOs. These awards were designed to pay over extended performance periods, subject to the achievement of specified, measurable performance goals, and were further conditioned upon continued employment. As such, these awards are useful in providing a defined value for achievement of our financial targets, as well as leadership stability. In addition, long-term cash awards help complement equity awards that are not yet liquid.

3. Benefits

The Company provides a comprehensive group of benefits to eligible employees, including our NEOs. These include health and welfare benefits as well as retirement benefits. Our benefit programs are designed to provide market competitive benefits for employees and their covered dependents.

Each of our NEOs participates in the Company’s qualified defined contribution retirement plan the “MPM 401(k) Plan”) on substantially the same terms as other participating employees. In addition, because individuals are subject to U.S. tax limitations on contributions to qualified retirement plans, MPM previously adopted a defined contribution Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “MPM SERP”), a non-qualified plan, to provide these employees, including our NEOs, with an incremental benefit on eligible earnings above the U.S. tax limits for qualified

plans. Our NEOs are eligible to participate in the MPM SERP on the same terms and conditions as our other highly compensated salaried employees.

Most of our U.S. employees are eligible to participate in (the "MPM 401(k) Plan"). This plan allows eligible exempt employees to make pre-tax contributions from 1% to 15% of eligible earnings for employees who meet the definition of highly compensated employees and 30% for all other employees up to the U.S. tax limits for qualified plans. Our NEOs are eligible to receive matching contributions from us equal to 100% of contributions of up to 5% of eligible earnings. In addition, we make an annual retirement contribution ranging from 2% to 6% of eligible compensation, depending on years of benefit service, to eligible employees actively employed on the last day of the year. As noted above, in 2016 we reduced by one percentage point the amount of annual retirement contribution to the MPM 401(k) Plan. An additional company matching contribution of up to 1.25% of the employee’s contribution may be made if we achieve specified annual financial goals established at the beginning of each plan year. In 2016, these financial goals were achieved.

These plans are described under the headings “Narrative to the Pension Benefits Table” and “Narrative to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table” below.

4. Other

Change-in-Control and Severance Benefits

Our NEOs are generally entitled to certain limited change-in-control and severance protections. We believe that appropriate change-in-control and severance protections accomplish two objectives. First, they create an environment where key executives are able to take actions in the best interest of the Company without incurring undue personal risk. Second, they foster management stability during periods of potential uncertainty. We are also cognizant that excessive pay in the way of change-in-control and severance protection would not be in the best interest of the Company because such pay may encourage undue risk-taking. In an attempt to balance the delicate equation, the Committee has determined to provide these benefits very selectively. The change-in-control and severance benefits payable to our NEOs are discussed under the headings “Narrative to the Summary Compensation Table” and in the discussion on “Potential Payments Upon Termination of Employment,” below.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION⁽¹⁾

The Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the disclosures contained in the above Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

(1)	Stock option awards fair values were determined to be $7.93 for Tranche A option awards and $7.62 for Tranche B option awards using the Monte Carlo option-pricing model. The repricing of the stock options in May of 2016 did not result in additional compensation expense or otherwise trigger a charge to the Company’s earnings in 2016.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards – Fiscal 2016

The following table presents information about grants of awards during the year ended December 31, 2016 under the 2016 ICP. As noted above, the repricing of the stock options did not result in additional compensation expense or otherwise trigger a charge to the Company’s earnings in 2016, and the previously awarded stock options, as repriced, are therefore not reported in the table below.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table

Employment Agreements

We have employment agreement letters with our NEOs, which provide for their terms of compensation and benefits, severance, and certain restrictive covenants. Mr. Boss’s employment letter provided him a guaranteed sign-on bonus of $1.3 million to be paid over a two-year period beginning July 2014 and ending April 2015. This sign-on bonus compensated Mr. Boss for the estimated value of the long-term incentive awards he forfeited with his prior employer. All amounts under the sign-on bonus have been paid. Further details regarding the severance and restrictive covenant provisions are described below under “Potential Payments upon a Termination or Change in Control.”

2016 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (2016 ICP)

Information on the 2016 ICP targets, performance components, weightings, and payouts for each of our NEOs can be found in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this report.

Narrative to Outstanding Equity Awards Table

MPMH Equity Plan

On April 10, 2015, Mr. Boss received awards of service-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of Momentive and performance-based stock options of Momentive under the MPMH Equity Plan. On July 20, 2015 and September 24, 2015, Messrs. Asmussen and Moran, respectively, received awards of service-based restricted stock units of Momentive and performance-based options to purchase shares of Momentive under the MPMH Equity Plan.

The RSUs generally become 100% vested upon the fourth anniversary of the grant date. The RSUs may vest earlier upon a Sale and provide for ratable vesting in the event of an IPO (as such terms are defined in the MPMH Equity Plan).

The stock options generally vest based upon the achievement of certain price-per-share targets achieved in a Sale or an IPO.

The vesting terms of the RSUs and stock options described above are each conditioned on the NEOs’ continued employment with us through an applicable vesting date. With respect to any RSUs that become vested, such RSUs will be settled in shares of Momentive within sixty (60) days following the applicable vesting date, subject to certain conditions and limitations. In addition to containing certain restrictions

on transferability and other customary terms and conditions, the RSU and stock option award agreements include the following restrictive covenants: (i) a 2-year post-termination of employment or services non-compete; (ii) a 2 year post-termination of employment or services non-solicitation of customers, suppliers and employees; (iii) indefinite nondisclosure and non-disparagement covenants; and (iv) an assignment of intellectual property rights.

Outstanding Equity Awards - 2016 Fiscal Year-End

The following table presents information about outstanding and unexercised stock options and outstanding and unvested stock awards held by our NEOs as of December 31, 2016. The securities underlying the awards are shares of common stock of Momentive and were granted under the MPMH Equity Plan. See the Narrative to the Outstanding Equity Awards Table below for a discussion of this plan and the vesting conditions applicable to the awards.

(3)	These awards vest upon the fourth anniversary of the applicable grant date.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested - Fiscal 2016

There were no option exercises or RSUs that vested for our NEOs in fiscal 2016. Thus, the “Option Exercises and Stock Vested - Fiscal 2016” table has been omitted from this report.

Pension Benefits – Fiscal 2016

All of our NEOs were hired after MPM’s relevant qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans were frozen and are therefore not eligible to participate in such plans.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation – Fiscal 2016

The following table presents information with respect to each defined contribution plan that provides for the deferral of compensation on a basis that is not tax-qualified.

Narrative to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table

MPM SERP

The MPM SERP was adopted by MPM in 2012 to provide certain of its executives and other highly compensated employees, including our NEOs, whose benefits under the MPM 401(k) Plan are limited by the benefit restrictions under the Internal Revenue Code. For such individuals, an annual contribution of 5% of eligible earnings above the maximum compensation that may be recognized under the MPM 401(k) Plan (in 2016, such amount was $265,000) is credited to the individuals MPM SERP account. The MPM SERP is an unfunded non-qualified plan. Account credits are made to the plan during the second quarter of each year. Interest credits are provided in the participant’s SERP accounts at an interest rate equal to the average annual return of the one year US Treasury Notes, with a minimum credit at an annual rate of 2.5%. Any amount held in the MPM SERP is paid to an employee on the six month anniversary of such employee’s termination of employment.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Termination Payments

As described above, we have employment agreements or employment letters with Messrs. Boss, Asmussen, and Moran that provide for severance under certain circumstances as well as restrictive covenants.

Mr. Boss has an employment letter, which provides him a guaranteed severance benefit equal to 18 months of base salary in the event of a termination without “cause” (as such term is defined in his employment letter). Mr. Boss is also eligible to receive executive outplacement and COBRA benefits continuation in accordance with the Company’s severance policy. None of the payments or benefits are subject to a tax gross-up.

Messrs. Asmussen and Moran are guaranteed severance equal to 12 months of base salary in the event that they are terminated without “cause” (as such term is defined in their respective employment letters). Each of Messrs. Asmussen and Moran is also eligible to receive executive outplacement and COBRA benefits continuation in accordance with the Company’s severance policy. None of the payments or benefits are subject to a tax gross-up.

In accordance with their receipt of equity awards, each of Messrs. Boss, Asmussen and Moran are subject to an obligation not to compete with us and not to solicit our associates (i.e. customers, suppliers, employees) for two years following termination of their employment for any reason, as well as a covenant not to disclose confidential information or disparage us or our affiliates.

Our equity awards provide for accelerated vesting upon the occurrence of certain change in control events if certain conditions are met, including those related to our stock price.


•	Treatment of RSUs upon an IPO or a Sale (as such terms are defined in the MPMH Equity Plan):

•

Upon an IPO occurring prior to the applicable vesting date, RSUs shall vest pro-rata in increments of 25% for each anniversary of the date of grant that has elapsed prior to the consummation of such IPO (e.g. if the IPO occurs on or after the second anniversary of the grant date but before the third anniversary, 50% of the RSUs would vest). Any remaining unvested RSUs following an IPO would remain outstanding, and eligible to vest in annual increments of 25% of the total RSUs originally granted, subject to a recipients continued employment through the applicable vesting date.


•	Upon a Sale occurring prior to the applicable vesting date, the RSUs, to the extent unvested, shall become fully vested, subject to the Grantee’s continued employment through the date of such Sale.


•	Stock option awards vest upon a Sale or IPO, but only if the price of Momentive’s share price exceeds the applicable performance thresholds, none of which would have been achieved as of December 31, 2016.

The following table describes payments our NEOs would have received had the individual’s employment been involuntarily terminated (other than for cause), including in connection with a change in control related to a Sale of the Company, as of December 31, 2016. The calculations are intended to provide reasonable estimates of the potential benefits, are based on numerous assumptions, and may not represent the actual amount an executive would receive if an eligible termination event were to occur.

(4)

This column reflects the value of RSUs that would have vested assuming that a Sale had occurred as of December 31, 2016 and based on an $8.00 per share value which was the value of one share of common stock of Momentive as of December 31, 2016, as quoted on the OTCQX. This accelerated vesting of RSUs would occur at the time of a Sale and is not conditioned upon a termination of the NEOs employment.

Narrative to the Director Compensation Table

In March 2015, a director compensation policy was adopted for Momentive directors. Under this policy, directors receive an annual retainer of $75,000 payable quarterly in arrears, and the Chairman of the Board receives an additional $25,000 annual retainer, also paid quarterly in arrears. Directors who serve on committees of the Board receive the following annual retainers for their services:



Committee	Member Retainer		Chairperson Retainer
Audit	$	10,000	$	15,000
Compensation	7,500		12,500
Environment, Health & Safety	5,000		10,000
Nominating & Governance	5,000		10,000

Retainer amounts payable with respect to any partial quarter of service are prorated to reflect the number of days served by the director during such quarter. Directors are also entitled to receive an annual equity grant under the MPMH Equity Plan with a grant date Fair Market Value (as defined in the MPMH Equity Plan) equal to $75,000 annually, in the form and subject to the terms and conditions established by the Committee from time to time in accordance with the MPMH Equity Plan. As an administrative convenience, the Board typically does not make an award to directors joining in the fourth quarter of a year and provides an award of greater value in the following year to take into account the director’s service in the preceding fourth quarter.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Messrs. Kalsow-Ramos and Balakrishnan, whose names appear on the Compensation Committee Report above, are employed by Apollo Management, L.P. and Oaktree Capital Management, respectively, two of Momentive’s shareholders. Neither of these directors is or has been an executive officer of the Company. None of our executive officers served as a director or a member of a compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function) of any other entity, the executive officers of which served as a director or member of our Committee during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Momentive is our ultimate parent company and indirectly owns 100% of our capital stock. The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of Momentive’s common stock, as of February 15, 2017, and shows the number of shares of common stock and percentage owned by:


•	each person known to beneficially own more than 5% of the common stock of Momentive;


•	each of our 2016 Named Executive Officers;


•	each current member of MPM’s and the Momentive’s Board of Directors; and


•	all of the executive officers and members of the Board of Directors of MPM and Momentive as a group.

As of February 15, 2017, Momentive had 48,058,114 common shares issued and outstanding. The amounts and percentages of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed a beneficial owner of securities as to which he has no economic interest. Except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, each of the beneficial owners has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the indicated common stock and has not pledged any such stock as security.
