The shares represented by the proxy will be voted unless the proxy is received in such form as to render it not votable. The proxy is in ballot form so that you may specifically grant or withhold authority to vote for the election of each director. Our board of directors has designated Terry E. Trexler and Jean Etheredge, and each or either of them, as proxies to vote the shares of common stock solicited on its behalf.

In the election of directors, you may vote “FOR” all or some of the nominees or your vote may be “WITHHELD” with respect to one or more of the nominees. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting, which means that the fivefour nominees who receive the highest number of properly executed votes will be elected as directors, even if those nominees do not receive a majority of the votes cast. A properly executed proxy marked “withhold authority” with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

Shareholders of record at the close of business on January 28, 2015February 1, 2016 will be entitled to vote. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on any matter to come before the meeting.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES

Board Composition

Our board of directors is comprised of fivefour members, a majority of whom are independent directors. Although the Company is not currently listed on the OTCQX and not on a national securities exchange, the board of directors has elected to use the NASDAQ definition of independence for determining whether a director or nominee is independent. The board of directors has determined that our non-management directors, Messrs. Richard Barberie Robert Holliday and Robert Saltsman, are allboth independent according to current NASDAQ rules. During the fiscal year ended November 1, 2014,October 31, 2015, the board of directors held four regular meetings. Our non-management directors meet in executive sessions without management on a regular basis. All directors attended 100%75% or more of the meetings of the board of directors and committees of the board on which they served.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Our board is involved in the oversight of risks that could affect the Company. Although this oversight is conducted in part through the committees of the board as disclosed in the descriptions of the committees below and in the charters of each of the committees, the full board has retained responsibility for the general oversight of risks. The board satisfies this responsibility through full reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions, as well as through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within the Company.

Risk Considerations in our Compensation Policies

Our board believes that our compensation policies and practices are reasonable and properly align our employees’ interests with those of our shareholders. The board believes that the fact that incentive compensation for our executive officers and other employees is tied to earnings encourages actions that improve the Company’s profitability over the short and long term. In addition, the compensation committee reviews changes to our compensation policies and practices to ensure that such policies and practices do not encourage our executive officers and other employees to take actions that are likely to result in a material adverse effect on the Company.

Board Committees

Our board of directors has established three standing committees: a compensation committee, an audit committee and a nominating committee. The board of directors has elected to use the NASDAQ definitions of independence with respect to determining independence of members of specific committees. The charter of each committee is available on our website atwww.nobilityhomes.com/investorswww.nobilityhomes.com.

Compensation Committee. The compensation committee is presently comprised of Messrs. Richard Barberie Robert Holliday and Robert Saltsman. The compensation committee evaluates the performance of the CEO and other executive officers and recommends to the board of directors the salaries and bonuses, if any, to be paid to the executive officers. The compensation committee met 4 time(s)one time during 2014 in conjunction with regular board meetings.2015.

Audit Committee. During fiscal 2014, theThe audit committee wasis presently comprised of Messrs. Robert Saltsman Robert Holliday and Richard Barberie, all of whom are considered independent under current NASDAQ rules. The audit committee has a written charter which establishes the scope of the committee’s responsibilities and how it is to carry out those responsibilities. The audit committee charter charges the committee with overseeing management’s conduct of our financial reporting process, including: (1) the integrity of our financial statements, (2) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and (3) the independence and performance of our internal and external auditors. The audit committee met twicefour times during fiscal 2014.2015.

The board of directors has determined that Mr. Robert Saltsman is the audit committee financial expert, and is independent under current NASDAQ rules.

Nominating Committee. The board of directors has established a nominating committee comprised of Messrs. Robert Saltsman Robert Holliday and Richard Barberie, all of whom are considered independent under current NASDAQ rules. The nominating committee will consider suggestions for potential director nominees nominated by our board from many sources, including management and our shareholders. Any such nominations, together with appropriate biographical information, should be submitted to the nominating committee no later than October 5, 20158, 2016 by sending a letter to our corporate secretary at 3741 SW 7^th7th Street, Ocala, Florida 34474. The mailing envelope should contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a “Shareholder Nomination For Director.for Directors.” The nominating committee did not meet separately from the board of directors during fiscal 2014.2015.

In evaluating director nominees, including candidates submitted by shareholders, the nominating committee will consider the candidate’s experience, integrity, ability to make independent analytical inquiries, understanding of our business environment and willingness to devote adequate time to board duties. The nominating committee will also consider whether a candidate meets the definition of “independent director” under NASDAQ rules. There are no stated minimum criteria for director nominees, and the nominating committee may also consider such other factors as it deems to be in the best interest of Nobility Homes and its shareholders.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Overview

The compensation committee of our board of directors established, subject to the approval of the full board of directors, the compensation for our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, who are our only officers whose total compensation for the fiscal year ended November 1, 2014October 31, 2015 exceeded $100,000. We refer to these individuals as the “named executive officers.”

Because we are a small company, our compensation committee has sought to avoid the expense of retaining an outside compensation consultant to assist the committee with compensation plan design. The compensation committee takes into consideration recommendations of our CEO for compensation for officers other than our CEO.

Base Salary. The compensation committee sets salary levels for named executive officers so as to reflect the duties and level of responsibilities inherent in their positions and current economic conditions relating to our business. In establishing salary levels, the compensation committee considers the particular qualifications and level of experience of the individual.

At his request, our CEO’s base salary has remained fixed for over twenty fiscal years because a major incentive for his performance is the value of his substantial stock ownership in Nobility.Nobility Homes. Our CFO receives the same base salary as our CEO, with the majority of his compensation paid as quarterly incentive compensation. Due to the challenging economic environment in which we currently operate, weCEO. We have not increased our CFO’s base salary since 2005.

Quarterly Incentive Bonuses. We provide certain employees, including the named executive officers, the opportunity to earn a quarterly incentive bonus based on an evaluation of the employee’s individual performance and our performance. The bonus pool is based on a specified percentage earnings before interest and taxes for the quarter. The bonus pool is divided among eligible employees on a discretionary rather than formulaic basis. In considering bonuses for named executive officers other than the CEO, the compensation committee consults with our chairman and CEO regarding instances of exceptional effort demonstrated by an employee. No named executive officer is automatically entitled to a bonus or a bonus in any particular amount.

Change of Control/Severance Arrangements. None of the company’s executive officers have any employment agreements or change of control/severance agreements.
