Magurno $144,900 Executive Vice President and Residential Lending Group Executive Description of Bonus Plan for Fiscal 2006 On July 26, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors approved the Fiscal 2006 Incentive Plan. The executive officers who may earn bonus payments under the Incentive Plan are Messrs. LaMonica, McTernan and Carfora and Ms. Chadwick. The Company's Fiscal 2006 Incentive Plan provides for cash bonuses, payable quarterly, if the Company's annualized growth in earnings per share (excluding unusual or other non-recurring items) exceeds the specified percentage thresholds for either of two achievement tiers. If the higher tier's threshold is achieved the following total amounts for the year will be paid: Mr. LaMonica - $200,000; Mr. McTernan - $80,000; Mr. Carfora - $80,000; and Ms. Chadwick - $50,000. If subsequent to a quarterly award payment, annualized earnings per share growth falls below the threshold achieved for that payment, the executive is not required to return the payment. If the executive does not receive a bonus payment for a particular quarter or receives the lower tier bonus payment for the quarter, and annualized earnings per share growth increases in a later quarter to either the lower or higher tier threshold, then, in addition to receiving a payment for the later quarter, the executive will receive a payment for the earlier quarter as if the threshold achieved during the later quarter were also achieved during the earlier quarter. Ms. Magurno, along with other senior management personnel, is eligible for cash bonuses to be awarded in the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
