Determination of Awards

To maintain a focus on increasing shareholder value and driving superior financial performance, awards under this Plan will be based on the achievement of targets relating to the Company’s earnings, as measured by earnings per share or on such other performance criteria as may be established by the Compensation Committee for each Plan Year as described above under the heading “Administration.” Notwithstanding the specific performance criteria established, in making a determination as to whether or not such criteria was satisfied and the extent to which a bonus should be awarded, the Compensation Committee shall take into consideration factors such as unanticipated taxes, acquisition costs, non-recurring and extraordinary items, and other equitable factors, as determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion.

Distribution of Awards

Awards under the Plan are to be paid to eligible participants in cash as soon as financial performance is finalized and individual performance has been assessed, but in no case later than October 15th.

Subject to the terms of a participant’s employment, severance or other written compensation agreement with the Company and the provisions of the following paragraph, a participant must be actively employed by the Company on the date the Award is paid to receive the Award.  Participants hired or promoted to an eligible position for participation in the Plan during the Plan Year may receive a pro-rated Award (based on time in the eligible position during the Plan Year) subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee.

In the event the employment of a participant is terminated due to death, disability, or Retirement (as defined below) prior to the payment date for such Award, the participant will be entitled to receive the Award (in whole or on a pro rata basis for the period employed, as applicable) that would have been earned if the participant’s employment had continued through the next Award payment date, subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee.  “Retirement” means the termination by a Participant of his or her employment with the Company (other than as a result of death or disability) on or after (a) the participant’s 60th birthday if the Participant has completed at least fifteen (15) years of service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (b) the Participant’s 65th birthday if the participant has completed at least ten (10) years of service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
