§ 2645.5. Fixed Expenses.
(a) Executive compensation in excess of the insurer's maximum permissible executive compensation shall be deducted from fixed expenses. For purposes of this computation, the following shall apply:
(1) “Executive” means the insurer's five highest-paid policymaking positions in each insurance group.
(2) “Compensation” means the total cash paid, including salary and bonus.
(3) “Maximum permissible executive compensation” means:
(A) For the highest paid executive in the group:
max comp = 1077(101.4600 + 0.4060 logX)
(B) For the second-highest paid executive in the group:
max comp = 1077(101.4140 + 0.3490 logX)
(C) For the third-highest paid executive in the group:
max comp = 1077(101.2310 + 0.3820 logX)
(D) For the fourth-highest paid executive in the group:
max comp = 1077(101.2470 + 0.3580 logX)
(E) For the fifth-highest paid executive in the group:
max comp = 1077(101.2460 + 0.3420 logX)
where X is the greater of (i) the insurer's total 1989 countrywide direct earned premium for lines of business subject to Proposition 103 divided by 1,000,000 or (ii) 70.
(b) For rollback calculations, fixed expenses for each line shall be set at the lower of the quantity specified in section 2644.12, subdivision (a), or actual recorded expenses for calendar year 1989. For rollback calculations the term “maximum profit factor” in section 2644.12 means “profit factor” as defined in section 2645.6.
(c) For rollback calculations, the following table shall be used to determine the efficiency standard:
