The employment agreement also provides that, as an inducement for Mr. Smit to enter into the employment agreement, and on account of Mr. Smit’s outstanding work in leading both Comcast Cable’s industry-leading performance, including transforming the development and use of technology in all aspects of the cable business, and the integration planning for the proposed transactions with Time Warner Cable and Charter Communications, Mr. Smit will be granted a performance-based bonus payable in the form of a $1,000,000 credit to his account under our deferred compensation plan and a performance-based restricted stock unit grant having a value of $4,000,000 that will vest 13 months following the date of grant. Additionally, the employment agreement continues the structure under Mr. Smit’s prior employment agreement of crediting contributions to his deferred compensation plan account, with $1,823,259 being credited in 2015 and with annual contributions increasing by 5% each year thereafter from 2016 through 2019.
