MANAGEMEMENT TEAM – Bonus Components

The Corporate Results threshold must be achieved before bonus is paid.  Subsequently, management team members are measured on achievement against revenue and individual targets.

 

Corporate Target is driven by the corporate operating profit and revenue plan (Corporate Results).

•                  Minimum payment (50%) requires a threshold achievement of 90% revenue to plan & 90% operating profit to plan

•                  Upside payment potential to 200%

 

Individual Target is based on achievement of goals tied to the corporate operating plan and strategic objectives (Individual Results).

•                  50% of bonus is weighted on individual results and tied to Corporate Results

 

Revenue Target is based on budget revenue numbers for the Company (Revenue Results).

•                  50% of bonus is comprised of revenue

•                  Minimum payment (50% ) requires threshold achievement of at least 90% of revenue to plan

•                  Upside payment potential to 200%

 

Bonus Formula if Company meets threshold:

Target x Corporate Results% x Individual Results% x Weight 50%
