Dennis:
This confirms your bonus for business year 2005. The results achieved yielded a 75% bonus against a target of $460,000 or $345,000. Congratulations on a great performance. At the April 24-25, 2006 meeting of the Board, the committee also recommended to the Board, and the Board authorized, that you should receive 160,000 options in recognition of your efforts during the business year, with an option exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on April 24, 2006.
As to the current year, business year 2006, we are raising your salary to $575,000 effective as of May 1, 2006.
Your targeted base bonus for business year 2006 will be $575,000 and will be performance based. The sole metric will be EBITDA (before extraordinary items). The illustrative table below shows EBITDA and bonus amounts in round numbers. The actual bonus will be calculated from real EBITDA dollar amounts.
The following table illustrates the parameters of the plan:
EBITDA | Bonus % | Bonus $ | ||
* | 0 | 0 | ||
* | 80 | 460,000 | ||
* | 85 | 488,750 | ||
* | 90 | 517,500 | ||
* | 95 | 546,250 | ||
* | 100 | 575,000 | ||
* | 105 | 603,750 | ||
* | 110 | 632,500 | ||
* | 115 | 661,250 | ||
* | 120 | 690,000 | ||
* | 125 | 718,750 | ||
* | 130 | 747,500 | ||
* | 135 | 776,250 | ||
* | 140 | 805,000 | ||
* | 145 | 833,750 | ||
* | 150 | 862,500 |
The bonus is capped at 150% of your target. That is, any EBITDA in excess of *MM will still earn the maximum bonus of $862,500.
