Eligible Individuals who are eligible to participate in the Plan shall be so notified in writing, and shall be apprised of the Performance Goals and related Award opportunities for the applicable Performance Period.

3.2 Partial Performance Period Participation. In the event that an Eligible Individual becomes eligible to participate in the Plan subsequent to the commencement of a Performance Period (either because he or she first becomes an Eligible Individual or because he or she is designated as eligible to participate after the commencement of the Performance Period), then such individual’s Award shall be determined using the amount of the Award that would be payable for the full Performance Period (but for the Participant’s participation for a partial year) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such Performance Period that the Participant was eligible to participate in the Plan and the denominator of which is the total number of days comprising the Performance Period.

3.3 No Right to Participate. No Participant, Eligible Individual or other employee of the Company shall at any time have the right to be selected for participation in the Plan for any Performance Period, despite having previously participated in this Plan or another incentive plan of the Company.

Section 4
INCENTIVE AWARD OPPORTUNITY

4.1 Performance Goals.

(a) Performance Goals. Prior to the beginning of a Performance Period, or as soon as practicable thereafter but not later than 90 days after commencement of the Performance Period, the Committee, in its discretion, and subject to the approval of the Board, shall in writing establish objective Performance Goals for Eligible Individuals. For the Performance Goals so established, the Committee shall establish individual or aggregate threshold, target and maximum levels of performance necessary to achieve and to earn all or a portion of an Award. The Performance Goals may be based upon both financial and non-financial goals, including, but not limited to, (i) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, (ii) revenue, (iii) sales, (iv) earnings per share, (v) funds from operations, (vi) pretax income before allocation of corporate overhead and bonus, (vii) budget, (viii) cash flow, (ix) net income, (x) division, group or corporate financial goals, (xi) appreciation in or maintenance of the price of the Stock or any other publicly traded securities of the Company, (xii) dividends, (xiii) total shareholder return, (xiv) return on shareholders’ equity, (xv) return on assets, (xvi) return on investment, (xvii) internal rate of return, (xviii) attainment of strategic and operational initiatives, (xix) market share, (xx) operating margin, (xxi) profit margin, (xxii) gross profits, (xxiii) earnings before interest and taxes, (xxiv) economic value-added models, (xxv)comparisons with various stock market indices, (xxvi) increase in number of customers, and (xxvii) reductions in costs, as determined by the Committee.

(b) Individual Performance Goals. If the Committee determines that the Award shall be attributable, in part, to a Participant’s achievement of individual Performance Goals, such achievement shall be determined by the Committee after consulting the person to whom the Participant directly reports.

(c) Adjustment of Performance Goals. For any Award subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall not have the authority to increase the Award opportunities during a Performance Period, but shall have authority to exercise negative discretion provided that such exercise does not result in an increase in the Award of another Participant. For any other Award, the Committee shall have the right to increase or to decrease the Performance Goals and the Award opportunities if it determines that external changes or other unanticipated business conditions have materially affected the fairness of the Performance Goals and have unduly influenced the ability to achieve the Performance Goals.

4.2 Awards. The Committee shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to grant Incentive Awards and Long-Term Incentive Awards to Participants, and to establish the terms and conditions of such Awards, including payout, tax withholding and restrictive covenants, and, in the case of any payout in Stock, vesting and other restrictions, the effects of the termination of a Participant’s employment or service and transferability, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Stock Plan. Each Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement which shall be signed by the Committee or its designee; provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between a provision of the Plan and any provision of an Award Agreement, the provision of the Plan shall prevail. Incentive Awards or Long-Term Incentive Awards based on percentage achievement of Performance Goals between the threshold, target and maximum levels shall be determined by interpolation in accordance with procedures established by the Committee.

4.3 Maximum Award. The maximum dollar amount of any Incentive Award and of any Long-Term Incentive Award that may be paid to any single Participant in any calendar year with respect to Awards the compensation of which is determined by a formula that calculates a dollar amount (whether payable in cash or property) is (a) the greater of $1,000,000 or 250% of the Participant’s Base Salary for Incentive Awards and (b) the greater of $2,000,000 or 500% of the Participant’s Base Salary for Long-Term Incentive Awards. The maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be granted to any single Participant in any calendar year with respect to Awards the compensation of which is determined by the number of shares of Stock actually awarded or subject to vesting shall be 300,000 shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 11 of the Stock Plan; provided, however, that with respect to Awards that may be subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, such modifications and/or changes do not disqualify compensation attributable to such Awards as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.

Section 5
PAYMENT OF INCENTIVE AWARDS

5.1 Form and Timing of Payment. The Company shall pay to each Participant the amount due under the Participant’s Incentive Award or Long-Term Incentive Award for the applicable Performance Period, in cash or Stock, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Award and the procedures established by the Committee. All Awards payable in Stock shall be issued pursuant to the Stock Plan to the extent of shares of Stock available for issuance thereunder. Unless otherwise specified in the Award Agreement, each Award shall be paid on the March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends.

5.2 Payment of Partial Awards. In the event a Participant no longer meets the eligibility criteria set forth in the Plan during the course of a particular Performance Period (other than due to termination of employment), the Committee may, in its discretion, pay a partial award for the portion of the Performance Period the individual was a Participant.

5.3 Termination of Employment. It is a condition to the payment of an Incentive Award and a Long-Term Incentive Award under the Plan that the Participant be employed on the date of payment, unless the Award Agreement providing for such Award specifically provides otherwise.

5.4 Change in Control Termination. Unless an Incentive Award or any Long-Term Incentive Award specifically provides otherwise, if the Company terminates a Participant’s employment coincident with or after a Change in Control, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount of such Award for such Performance Period equal to the product of (a) a target level Award multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that the Participant was participating during the applicable Performance Period through the day of termination and the denominator of which is the total number of days comprising such Performance Period. Payment under this Section 5.4 may be made in accordance with Section 5.1 or sooner, as determined by the Committee in its discretion.

5.5 Section 409A Delay. If any Incentive Award or Long-Term Incentive Award under the Plan is considered to be non-qualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1987, as amended (the “Code”), and payment under such Award is being made upon a Participant’s termination of employment, then if such Participant is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the payments to which the Participant is entitled is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of the payments will not be provided to the Participant prior to the earlier of (1) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” with the Company (as such term is defined in the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code) or (2) the Participant’s death. Upon the expiration of the applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) deferral period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be paid in a lump sum.

Section 6
RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS

6.1 No Employment Rights. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any Eligible Individual’s employment at any time, nor confer upon any Eligible Individual any right to continue in the employ of the Company.

6.2 Nontransferability. No Participant or any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt of the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgment, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency.

Section 7

The Committee, in its sole discretion, without notice, at any time and from time to time, may in writing modify or amend, in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of the Plan, or suspend or terminate it entirely; provided, however, that no such modification, amendment, suspension, or termination may, without the consent of a Participant (or his or her beneficiary in the case of the death of the Participant), reduce the right of a Participant (or his or her beneficiary, as the case may be) to a payment or distribution hereunder to which he or she is otherwise entitled.

Section 9
MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Governing Law. The Plan, and all agreements hereunder, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois (without regard for its conflict of laws rules).

This Plan, and any Awards hereunder to be granted after the annual meeting of shareholders immediately succeeding the date that this Plan is adopted by the Board, are made subject to the condition that the Plan be approved by the shareholders of the Company. If the Plan is not so approved, it and such Awards shall be null and void and without effect. Shareholder approval shall not be required for Awards granted prior to such annual meeting. If required by Section 162(m) of the Code or any successor regulation or rule, the material terms of performance goals as described in Section 4.1 shall be disclosed to and reapproved by the shareholders of the Company no later than the first shareholder meeting that occurs in the 5th year following the year in which the Company’s shareholders previously approved such performance goals.

9.9 Captions, Gender and Number. The descriptive headings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of the Plan.

Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine, the plural shall include the singular, and the singular shall include the plural.

9.10 Headings. The headings and captions contained herein are provided for convenience only, and are not to be used to in the interpretation or construction of any provision contained in the Plan.

9.11 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has executed this Plan by its duly authorized officers as of this 2nd day of August, 2007, effective the effective date set forth in Section 1.2.
