1)
Revenue is defined as the total consolidated third party top line revenue from continuing operations as publicly reported in the Company’s financial statements.  The percentage achieved is determined by comparing the actual consolidated revenue from continuing operations to the Board approved Revenue Target from continuing operations, which is $126,190,000.  The Board reserves the right to modify or change the Revenue Targets as defined herein in the event of the sale or disposition of any of the assets of the Company or in the event of an acquisition.
 
2)
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization from continuing operations.  The percentage achieved is determined by comparing the actual EBITDA to the Board approved EBITDA Target, which is $9,567,000.  The Board reserves the right to make adjustments to the EBITDA Target to account for the unique accounting treatment of fair market value of percentage of completion contracts resulting from the acquisition of Safety and Ecology Holdings Corporation and its subsidiaries (“SEC”).
 
3) The Health and Safety Incentive target is based upon the actual number of Worker’s Compensation Lost Time Accidents, as provided by the Company’s Worker’s Compensation carrier.  The Corporate Treasurer will submit a report on a quarterly basis documenting and confirming the number of Worker’s Compensation Lost Time Accidents, supported by the AIG Worker’s Compensation Loss Report.  Such claims will be identified on the loss report as “indemnity claims.”  The following number of Worker’s Compensation Lost Time Accidents and corresponding Performance Target Thresholds has been established for the annual Incentive Compensation Plan calculation for 2013.
