Performance Period. The Performance Period shall be the period
beginning June 4, 2005 and ending June 2, 2006.
5.
Performance Objectives. You will earn shares of Restricted Stock
under
this Performance Share Award based on Oxford's "Earnings per
Share"
during the Performance Period. For purposes of this Agreement,
Earnings per Share shall be equal to the basic Earnings per
Share
calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted
in the United States and as reported in Oxford's financial
statements
as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, except that
certain
adjustments may be made for certain non-recurring or unusual
non-cash
items recognized in accordance with accounting principles
generally
accepted in the United States including, but not limited, to
any
write-offs of unamortized deferred financing costs and any
asset
impairment write-downs, which the Committee determines in its
sole
discretion to exclude for purposes of this Agreement.
The Threshold Earnings per Share is $3.33 per share. The Target
Earnings per Share is $3.45 and the Maximum Earnings per Share
is
$3.57 per share. If Oxford attains less than the Threshold
Earnings
per Share, you will not earn any Shares under this Restricted
Share
Unit Award. If Oxford attains the Threshold Earnings per Share and
you
continue to be employed by Oxford or a Subsidiary as set forth
in
Section 7 hereof, you will have the opportunity to earn one Share.
If
Oxford attains the Target Earnings per Share and you continue to
be
employed by Oxford or a Subsidiary as set forth in Section 7
hereof,
you will have the opportunity to earn the number of Shares
specified
in Section 3 hereof as the Target Share Opportunity. The
maximum
number of shares you will have the opportunity to earn is set forth
in
Section 3 hereof as the Maximum Share Opportunity. The number
of
Shares you will have the opportunity to earn at any Earnings per
Share
level between the Threshold and Target and Target and Maximum will
be
pro-rate
