PEOPLES STATE BANK
INCENTIVE DEFERRED BONUS AGREEMENT
ANNUAL PERFORMANCE ELEMENTS FOR PLAN YEAR _________
Executive's name: _______________________________
CALCULATION OF ANNUAL DEFERRED AMOUNT (WHICH SHALL BE STATED ON EXHIBIT A).
The amount of the Executive's grant of the Annual Deferred Amount shall
be based on the following four (4) specific factors:
FACTOR ONE: The Bank must attain after-tax earnings of at least
$_______________ adjusted for any expense or income as a result of the death of
an employee of the Bank; or adjusted for any other adjustments that are outside
normal bank operations beyond management's control and as determined by the
board. If the Bank fails to maintain this target earnings level, no grant of
an Annual Deferred Amount shall occur.
FACTOR TWO: The percentage set forth in I. below.
FACTOR THREE: A weighted percentage of Factor Two, such weighted
percentage calculated as follows: (a) the accomplishment of the combined
departmental goals and the individual goals assigned to the Executive,
expressed as a percentage, divided by (b) the combined maximum percentages
assigned to the departmental goals and individual goals assigned to the
Executive.
FACTOR FOUR: The Individual Performance Elements, if any, assigned to
the Executive for the Plan Year and as described in II. below.
Therefore, the amount of your Annual Deferred Amount percentage assigned
in I. below multiplied by weighted percentage of the level of attainment of the
departmental and individual goals set forth for the Executive, determines the
maximum amount that may be provided as your Grant. This amount is then
multiplied by the combined percentage weight of attained Individual Performance
Elements, if any, assigned in II. below. These combined factors then determine
your final Incentive Deferred Bonus Grant percentage, which is multiplied by
the Executive's Base Salary and set forth on Exhibit A for the Plan Year.
