For each full fiscal year of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall be eligible for an annual discretionary bonus (the “Cash Bonus”) with a target amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of Executive’s then current base salary (the “Target Percentage”), which Target Bonus will be calculated on a pro rata basis for any partial year based on applicable Base Salary(ies) in effect during the relevant periods.

applicable Cash Bonus (which may be less than, equal to, or greater than the Target Percentage based on the level of performance achieved and the terms of the Annual Bonus Plan).

Except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, Executive shall only be eligible to receive a Cash Bonus for a calendar year if Executive is employed on the last day of such calendar year. Any Cash Bonus awarded for a calendar year, if any, shall be paid in cash when other senior executives of the Company are paid, and, in any event, on or before March 31^st of the calendar year subsequent to the calendar year in which the Cash Bonus is earned.”
