level. There will be no payout for achievement below 100% and the maximum

A participants bonus payout will be based on a simple additive formula in which
the final calculated % of payout for an individuals performance on
corporate-wide and functional financial objectives as well as personal
objectives will be added together resulting in a percentage that will be
multiplied by the individuals target bonus as a percent of salary.

Attachment 2 provides a sample payout for a participant who has a target bonus
of 30% of salary and has a weighting of 30% corporate, 50% functional and 20%
personal.
