Bonus Awards definition

Bonus Awards means the gross cash amounts awarded under the San Diego Gas & Electric Company Senior Management Incentive Compensation Plan or Compensation Incentive Plan during the 12-month period ending on the date of the Participant's termination of employment divided by 52.
Bonus Awards means awards made pursuant to Section 11.
Bonus Awards means the awards which are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception to Section 162(m) of the Code, as further described in Article VI, and which shall be payable under this Plan for any Performance Period only if the Performance Criteria for such Performance Period are met or exceeded and if and to the extent the Committee, in its discretion, authorizes such payment to be made. Bonus Awards for all Covered Employees may not exceed, in the aggregate, the maximum amount of five million dollars ($5 million) in any Performance Period. Necessarily, therefore, no individual Covered Employee may receive more than that amount for any Performance Period and if the total maximum aggregate Bonus Awards amount of $5 million were to be paid to any one such Covered Employee for any Performance Period then the others could not be paid any Bonus Awards.
