The Company, through the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, retains the right to adjust your Annual Cash Incentive plan at any time as business circumstances or other factors reasonably dictate.
With respect to the Annual Cash Incentive for Fiscal 2012, the Compensation Committee will determine the payout of this amount based on a combination of 50% payout on satisfaction of item 1 of the Company objectives relating to Company revenue (the “Company Revenue Bonus for 2012”) and 50% payout on item 2 of the Company objectives relating to Company EBITDA (the “Company EBITDA Bonus for 2012”), as provided below:
