This excerpt taken from the CCO DEF 14A filed Apr 30, 2009. Change-in-Control and Severance Arrangements Pursuant to Messrs. Meyers and Bevans employment agreements, they are entitled to certain severance payments upon their termination with Clear Channel Outdoor. Additionally, under the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan, and related forms of stock option agreement and restricted stock award agreement, the named executive officers are entitled to certain other benefits upon their termination and a change in control of Clear Channel Outdoor. For further discussion of these severance payments and benefits, see the heading Potential Post-Employment Payment, set forth below in this proxy statement. The Committee does not view the potential benefits conferred upon a change in control of Clear Channel Outdoor as additional elements of compensation due to the fact that a change in control may never occur. The Committee believes that these arrangements allow the named executive officers to focus their attention and energy on Clear Channel Outdoors business without any distractions regarding the effects of a change in control, and assists us in maximizing stockholder value by allowing the named executive officers to participate in an objective review of any proposed transaction and whether such transaction is in the best interest of the stockholders. This excerpt taken from the CCO DEF 14A filed Apr 7, 2008. Change-in-Control and Severance Arrangements See the discussion of change in control and severance arrangements with respect to Mr. Paul Meyer on page 25 under the heading Potential Post-Employment Payments. The Committee evaluates change in control and severance arrangements as one element in its consideration of the overall compensation for executive officers.
