On March 27, 2015, the independent members of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved an executive bonus plan for the Company’s FY 2016. Bonuses awarded under the executive bonus plan will be based upon the Company’s FY 2016 operating income, as reported in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, compared to budgeted operating income approved by the Board on March 27, 2015. Bonuses awarded under the executive bonus plan will be based on the following formulas:
• | If less than 25% of Budgeted Operating Income is achieved, bonus equals 0% of Target Bonus. |
• | If 25% up to 49.99% of Budgeted Operating Income is achieved, bonus equals 25% of Target Bonus. |
• | If 50% up to 99.99% of Budgeted Operating Income is achieved, bonus equals 50% of Target Bonus. |
• | If 100% of Budgeted Operating Income is achieved, bonus equals 100% of Target Bonus. |
• | If greater than 100% of Budgeted Operating Income is achieved (capped at 200% of Target Bonus): % of Target Bonus Earned = (100% + ((Operating Income as a % of Budgeted Operating Income - 100%) * 1.5)). |
• | Example: If 125% of Budgeted Operating Income is achieved, bonus equals 137.5% of Target Bonus. |
The Target Bonus, as a percentage of base salary, for the Company’s executive officers for the Company’s FY 2016 is set forth in the following table:
Name | Title | Target Bonus | ||||
Darren Richardson | President and Chief Executive Officer | 60 | % | |||
Karen McGinnis | Chief Financial Officer | 50 | % | |||
