The key performance indicators used to determine whether any bonuses will be paid under the bonus plan will be the same for all employees. The amounts of the bonuses under the bonus plan will be determined by multiplying the employee's salary by the employee's payout percentage. While the payout percentages vary from employee to employee, they will increase proportionately for all employees if and to the extent the Company attains a performance level above the minimum threshold. Performance thresholds and key performance indicators have been set for 2006 ("2006 Bonus Plan"). The expected payout percentages for the named executive officers under the 2006 bonus plan, if the Company meets the expected performance levels are as follows:
Name and Title | Payout Percentage at Expected Performance Level |
David W. Heeter President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company | 11.4% |

Depending on whether the Company's actual performance is above or below the expected performance level, these percentages may differ from the stated amounts.
