ELIGIBILITY
3.1. General.

ARTICLE 5
OPERATION OF THE PLAN
5.1 Target Units. Cash Incentive Awards initially shall be denominated in a number of shares of Stock determined by the Committee, which shall serve as the Target Units for the relevant Performance Period. The number of Target Units relating to each Cash Incentive Award normally will be equal to that number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value on the grant date equal to 50% of the annual cash bonus earned by a Participant for performance in the prior fiscal year (but not less than 25% of, or greater than 75% of, the Participants target bonus for such prior fiscal year), but may be determined otherwise in the sole discretion of the Committee. Each Participants Target Units for the initial Performance Period (2004-2006) is set forth on Exhibit B hereto.
5.2 Vesting. Cash Incentive Awards will cliff vest at the end of the relevant Performance Period, and there will be no partial or ratable vesting prior to such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Participants termination of employment by reason of death, Disability or Retirement under Section 5.8 hereof, his or her Cash Incentive Awards will vest upon the date of such termination, and in the event of a Change in Control under Section 5.9 hereof, a Participants Cash Incentive Awards will vest in full on the applicable Payout Date.
5.3 Award Matrix. The Performance Goals and payout amounts applicable to the initial Performance Period are based on the average EPS CAGR and ROE over the Performance Period, as set forth in the Award Matrix attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Committee may establish different Award Matrices for future Performance Periods. Pursuant to Section 4.3 of the Plan, the Committee shall establish Performance Goals and the applicable Award Matrix not later than 90 days after the beginning
-3-
of the Performance Period for which such Performance Goals relate (but in no event after 25% of the Performance Period has elapsed).
5.4 Determination of Performance Results. As soon as reasonably possible after the close of the fiscal year marking the end of a Performance Period, the Committee will determine and certify in writing the degree to which the Performance Goals have been attained. The Committee shall have the sole authority to determine to what the extent the Performance Goals have been attained. Any payment of a Cash Incentive Award shall be conditioned on the written certification of the Committee in each case that the Performance Goals and any other material conditions were satisfied. In determining whether the Performance Goals have been met, the Committee may in its discretion adjust the financial results for a Performance Period to exclude the effect of unusual charges or income items or other events (including, without limitation, acquisitions or divestitures), which are distortive of financial results for the Performance Period; provided, however, that with respect to Covered Employees, measurement of the Companys performance against the Performance Goals established by the Committee shall be objectively determinable and, to the extent they are expressed in standard accounting terms, shall be determined according to generally accepted accounting principles as in existence on the date on which the Performance Goals are established and without regard to any changes in such principles after such date. No adjustment will be made with respect to a Covered Employee if the Committee determines that such adjustment will cause a Cash Incentive Award to such Covered Employee to fail to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m).
5.5 Payout of Awards. Cash Incentive Awards will be paid in cash on the relevant Payout Date in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (a) the Target Units for the Performance Period, as determined in Section 5.1 hereof, by (b) the applicable multiple set forth in the Award Matrix for the Performance Period, by (c) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock as of the last day the fiscal year marking the end of the Performance Period. Except as provided in Section 7.1 hereof, dividends paid on Company common stock during the Performance Period will not be considered in calculating such payout amount. The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the cash payout amount of a Cash Incentive Award otherwise payable to one or more Participants under the Program, notwithstanding the achievement of a Performance Goal. In the event that the minimum Performance Goals for a Performance Period are not met, such that the conditions for the threshold payout set forth in the relevant Award Matrix are not satisfied, the Cash Incentive Awards relating to such Performance Period shall have no value and, at the end of such Performance Period, shall lapse and be of no further effect.
5.6 Payout Deferrals. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant who is eligible to participate in a deferred compensation plan maintained by the Company may elect to defer receipt of the payout of his or her Cash Incentive Award, if any, with respect to such Performance Period subject to the terms and conditions of such deferred compensation plan. Any amount so deferred will be governed by the terms of the applicable deferred compensation plan.
5.7 Payout Limit. In no event shall any Participant receive a cash payout for a Cash Incentive Award which exceeds the annual limit provided in Section 4.2 of the Plan, as it may be amended from time to time. As of the Effective Date of the Program, this limit is equal to $2 million for each year of the relevant Performance Period. Subject to Code section 162(m), if the payout of a Cash Incentive Award is deferred by the Participant pursuant to Section 5.6 hereof, any additional amounts attributable to earnings during the deferral period shall be disregarded for purposes of applying this annual cash limit.
5.8 Termination of Employment. If a Participant ceases being an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary for any reason other than death, Disability, or Retirement, then his or her participation in the Program shall automatically be terminated and the Participant will forfeit any right to
-4-
any unvested Cash Incentive Awards. A Participants transfer of employment from the Company to one of its Subsidiaries, from a Subsidiary to the Company, or from one Subsidiary to another Subsidiary shall not constitute a termination of employment for purposes of the Program. In the event of a Participants termination of employment by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, his or her outstanding Cash Incentive Awards will vest in full, and the Company will within ten (10) days following such termination effect a payout of the Participants then-outstanding Cash Incentive Awards equal to the aggregate number of Target Units subject to such Cash Incentive Awards multiplied by the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the date of such termination. Amounts paid on behalf of a deceased Participant will be paid to the Participants Beneficiary.
5.8 Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, each Participants Cash Incentive Awards shall vest in full upon the Payout Date, at which time the Company or its successor shall effect a payout of the Participants then-outstanding Cash Incentive Awards equal to the aggregate number of Target Units subject to such Cash Incentive Awards multiplied by 125% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the Payout Date.
ARTICLE 6
AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION
6.1. Amendment, Modification and Termination. The Committee may, at any time and from time to time, amend, modify or terminate the Program. The Committee may condition any amendment or modification on the approval of shareholders of the Company if such approval is necessary or deemed advisable with respect to applicable laws, policies or regulations.
6.2 Termination After or During the Performance Period. Termination of the Program after a Performance Period but before the payout of the relevant Cash Incentive Award is made will not reduce a Participants rights to receive the payout of his or her Cash Incentive Award for the Performance Period. Termination or amendment of the Program during a Performance Period may be retroactive to the beginning of the Performance Period, at the discretion of the Committee. If any amendment or termination occurs during a Performance Period, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine when and to what extent Cash Incentive Awards shall be paid for the portion of the Performance Period preceding the amendment or termination.
ARTICLE 7
CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE
7.1. Adjustments. If, during a Performance Period, the Companys corporate structure or capitalization should be materially altered by virtue of a reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, rights offer, liquidation, dissolution, merger, consolidation, spin-off or sale of assets, or any other change in or affecting the corporate structure or capitalization of the Company, which does not constitute a Change in Control, the Committee may redefine any Award Matrix or adjust any Performance Period, to reflect the impact of such change. The nature of any such adjustment shall be to protect the purpose and integrity of the Program, reducing the potential for windfall gains or losses for Participants.
