[1] The 2023 Target Bonus Opportunity Program, under the 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan, is intended to encourage superior performance and achievement of the Company’s strategic business objectives. The bonus (if any) awarded under this plan may be adjusted downward at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, based on its assessment of quantitative and qualitative performance. Factors that may cause an adjustment include, but are not limited to, a comparison of the Company’s actual results (sales, closings, starts, etc.) to budget, inventory management, corporate governance, customer satisfaction, and peer/competitor comparisons.
[2] Pretax income shall take into account and adjust for goodwill charges, losses or expenses on early retirement of debt, impairment charges, and acquisition or deal costs related to the purchase or merger of a public company. Pretax Income is calculated as Net Earnings attributable to Lennar plus/minus income tax expense/benefit.
[3] Capital charge is calculated as follows: Tangible Capital = Stockholders’ Equity—Intangible Assets + Homebuilding Debt.
