Features of Proposed Plan Applicable to Officers (Vice Presidents and Above)

 

·         3 elements for 3 performance levels — Enterprise (or Business Unit), Team, and Individual — each weighted equally

·         The product of the performance “scores” for each element is multiplied against the others to produce an overall incentive multiplier (multiplicative vs. additive formula)

·         Enterprise or Business Unit EVA Performance sets the initial “funding”

·         Team and or Individual Performance can increase or decrease the multiplier

·         Team Performance is the average score of  2-4 Team-specific financial, operational and customer metrics

·         Individual Performance is scored by an overall performance rating derived from a newly created performance appraisal process

·         The incentive  is capped at 2 times the incentive target (% of base salary)
