C ompensation definition

C ompensation  means the gross cash compensation (including, wage, salary and overtime earnings) paid by the Company or any Eligible Subsidiary Company to a participant in accordance with the terms of employment, but excluding all bonus payments, expense allowances and compensation paid in a form other than cash.
C ompensation  means the regular rate of salary or wages received by the Employee from the Company or a Designated Subsidiary that is taxable income for federal income tax purposes, including payments for overtime and shift premium, incentive compensation, incentive payments, bonuses and commissions, but excluding relocation, expense reimbursements, tuition or other reimbursements, other non-cash W-2 compensation (i.e. disqualifying dispositions, equity grants, equity exercises or settlements), or compensation received from the Company or a Designated Subsidiary. For purposes of determining a participant’s Compensation, any election by such participant to reduce his or her regular cash remuneration under Sections 125 (i.e. pre-tax cafeteria plan contributions) or 401(k) (i.e. pre-tax retirement contributions) of the Code (or in foreign jurisdictions, equivalent salary deductions) shall be treated as if the participant did not make such election and as if such reductions were not made. In other words ESPP Contributions are calculated on pre-tax Compensation but are withheld on a post-tax basis. Pre-tax contributions, including but not limited to those under Section 125 and 401(k), are withheld first, and ESPP Contributions are withheld only if the remaining post-tax Compensation can satisfy the elected ESPP Contribution percentage.
