MIVA, Inc. 2007 Bonus Program Description for Named Executive Officers

Summary

MIVA, Inc.'s 2007 Bonus Program outlines cash bonus payments for employees, including named executive officers (NEOs), based on achieving specific adjusted EBITDA and cash targets for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. The program specifies threshold, target, and maximum bonus amounts for each NEO. Bonuses are paid annually. In the event of a change of control, NEOs automatically receive their full target bonus.

Exhibit 10.1
DESCRIPTION OF THE MATERIAL TERMS OF
THE 2007 BONUS PROGRAM FOR MIVA, INC.
     The 2007 Bonus Program (the “Bonus Program”) provides for the payment of cash bonuses to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the Company’s currently employed named executive officers (the “NEOs,” as anticipated to be named in the Company’s 2007 proxy statement). Bonus payouts to the NEOs under the Bonus Program are based on achievement of adjusted EBITDA and cash target objectives for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, less other expenses.
     The following table sets forth the threshold, target, and maximum amounts for which an NEO is eligible under the Bonus Program:
                     
Executive Officer   Position Threshold/Target Maximum
Peter Corrao
  Chief Executive Officer   $ 320,000     $ 640,000  
Sebastian Bishop
  President and Chief Marketing Officer   $ 232,320     $ 464,640  
Lowell W. Robinson
  Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer   $ 210,000     $ 420,000  
John Pisaris
  General Counsel   $ 137,500     $ 275,000  
     Any bonus payouts to NEOs will be made on an annual basis. In the event of a change of control, the adjusted EBITDA and cash target objectives will be deemed to be met for the NEOs, and each NEO’s Target Bonus for the full year will be paid upon consummation of the change of control.
     For NEOs with employment contracts containing provisions for termination for “good reason” or termination by the Company “without cause,” upon separation of employment for either of those reasons, the executive will receive an amount equal to their Target Bonus, pro-rated for the amount of time employed by the Company in fiscal 2007, increased or decreased pursuant to actual performance versus targeted performance in the Bonus Program measured as of the end of the calendar month in the month preceding the termination date.
