EPS Growth Rate definition

EPS Growth Rate means the compound, average annual growth rate of EPS (as defined below) for the twelve (12) most recent fiscal quarters ended immediately prior to the Determination Date (the “S&P 500 EPS Growth Performance Period”) as determined on the basis of EPS reported on or prior to the Determination Date by Bloomberg (or any other reporting service that the Committee may designate from time to time) for any of the S&P 500 Companies other than (i) Disney and (ii) the Negative EPS Companies (the EPS for any such four quarters being referred to herein as the “Starting EPS”). For the avoidance of doubt, the EPS Growth Rate of any S&P 500 Company shall be calculated on the basis of the EPS for such Company over the four fiscal quarters ended immediately prior to the S&P 500 EPS Growth Performance Period as compared to its average annual EPS for the S&P 500 EPS Growth Performance Period for such company.

EPS Growth Rate for a specified year shall mean a percentage obtained by dividing (i) the amount equal to the Operational EPS for such specified year minus the Operational EPS for the year immediately preceding such specified year, by (ii) the Operational EPS for the year immediately preceding such specified year. In the event of a Capital Adjustment, the Operational EPS used in calculating the EPS Growth Rate will be proportionately and equitably adjusted. For example, the EPS Growth Rate for 1999 would be equal to (i) the Operational EPS for 1999 minus the Operational EPS for 1998, divided by (ii) the Operational EPS for 1998.
