Target Bonus Award
A target bonus based on a percentage of annual base salary has been identified for each employee by employee classification. The actual payout % is based on the total achievement of all Corporate Goals, to be designed based on Project and Department goals and objectives and other priorities as may be set by the Board and/or the Compensation Committee in consultation with management.
Corporate Goals
The bonus payout will be based on achievement across all of the Corporate Goals. The weighting of the Corporate Goals will be set, and results of achievements against them, will be measured by the Compensation Committee, to be determined following consultation with and recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and other appropriate members of management.
