SUMMARY
2005 DISCRETIONARY EXECUTIVE BONUS PROGRAM
The 2005 Discretionary Executive Bonus Program is based on a percentage of each executives annual salary, determined using the Objectives set forth below. The actual thresholds for each Objective and the inclusion of any such Objectives are determined annually by the Board of Directors and may vary from year to year. Certain Objectives have minimum thresholds that must be attained before any bonus can be earned. All percentages below are the maximum possible bonus that can be earned in 2005 for reaching the highest threshold for each Objective. The program is not a contract guarantying a bonus, and any bonus and the achievement level of each Objective is in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, or its Compensation Committee.
