2004 Executive and Management Incentive Plan
This agreement outlines the 2004 Executive and Management Incentive Plan, which sets out how incentive payments are determined for executives and managers. Payments are based 60% on business financial results and 40% on individual performance against annual objectives. Financial performance is measured by bookings, revenue, and operating profit, with payments made quarterly. Individual objectives are agreed upon at the start of the year and paid annually. The Compensation Committee may award additional bonuses based on exceptional results. Payouts depend on achieving at least 90% of targets, and the company may limit payments based on overall results.
