The total incentive compensation
pool available to Executives under this plan is based on the
Company’s achievement of specific EBITDA targets established
by the Board of Directors for 2009. At each pre-determined EBITDA
percentage achievement, beginning at 90% of achievement of targeted
EBITDA, an incentive compensation pool is established and will be
paid on a sliding scale up to a maximum of 110% of targeted EBITDA.
At achievement of 90% of EBITDA, the incentive compensation pool is
$316,250 and will increase to a maximum of $1,475,000 at
achievement of 110% of targeted EBITDA, subject to Section VII
below.
Calculation of the incentive
compensation pool at each level is based upon the number of
Executives on the date this plan is approved
