AMO BONUS PLAN

2008 PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE

 

 

2008 PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE

The 2008 performance objective for the Bonus Plan is 75% based on Adjusted Operating Income and 25% based on Revenue for the full year of AMO performance. “Adjusted Operating Income” is defined as sales less cost of goods sold and all basic operating expenses of the business. “Adjusted Operating Income” excludes the impact of charges or write-offs associated with acquisitions, reorganizations and recapitalizations, unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments and other periodic or one-time charges. “Revenue” is defined as the total dollar payment for goods and services that are credited to the income statement over the measurement period.

Each segment of the bonus is funded when AMO achieves the threshold levels of Adjusted Operating Income and Revenue performance, respectively, as indicated below. If the Adjusted Operating Income funding trigger threshold is not met, the 75% element of the plan is not funded. If the Revenue funding trigger threshold is not met, the 25% element of the plan is not funded. If neither funding trigger threshold is met, no bonuses will be funded.

Extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items

 

   

Effects of accounting changes

 

   

Effects of financing activities

 

   

Expenses for restructuring or productivity initiatives

 

   

Other non-operating items

 

   

Spending for acquisitions

 

   

Effects of divestitures
