The data reflects the dollar value of the performance stock units and restricted stock units based on the average price of Verizon’s common stock on the grant date, February 2, 2005. Actual payment of the performance stock units will be determined based on Verizon’s Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to the TSR of the companies that make up the Standard and Poor’s 500 and to the TSR of certain companies in Verizon’s telecommunications, broadband, wireless and cable industry peer group. On each dividend payment date, restricted units are credited to the participant’s account. The number of restricted stock units is determined by dividing the dividend that would have been paid on the shares represented by the stock units in the participant’s account by the average price of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape on the dividend payment date. The table reflects Mr. Seidenberg’s restructured 2005 long-term incentive award, as discussed in the Report of the Human Resources Committee on Executive Compensation. Based on the closing price of Verizon’s Common Stock on December 31, 2005, the aggregate unit amounts and dollar value held by the named executive officers was:
Name Number of PSUs   Number of RSUs   Aggregate Dollar Value
Mr. Seidenberg   326,003       0     $ 9,819,210
Mr. Babbio 129,373   86,249   6,494,535
Mr. Strigl 121,287   80,858   6,088,607
Mr. Barr 76,069   50,713   3,818,674
Ms. Toben 74,711   49,811   3,750,603
3 For 2005, the column “All Other Compensation” includes: Company contributions to the qualified savings plans, the non-qualified Executive Deferral Plan, and the Verizon Excess Pension Plan. In addition, in 2003 the Company’s split dollar life insurance program was terminated, and the company recovered all premiums it had paid under the program. In order to maintain commensurate life insurance benefits for senior managers, the policies have been converted to an executive life insurance program wherein Verizon partially pays for such coverage in the form of a bonus. The 2005 Company contributions for these plans that were made to the named executives are as follows:
Name   Qualified Savings
Plans
Nonqualified Executive
Deferral Plan
