Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On February 27, 2009, the Compensation Committee of the Registrant's Board of Directors approved the following bonuses for 2008 pursuant to the Registrant's Annual Cash Incentive Bonus Program, for the Registrant's chief executive officer, chief financial officer and the three other most highly compensated executive officers during such year, to be paid 1/2 in cash and 1/2 in shares of the Registrant's Class A common stock:
Officer 2008 Bonus
------- ----------
Joseph G. Morone $809,300
Michael C. Nahl 199,500
Daniel A. Halftermeyer 180,000
David B. Madden 174,200
Michael J. Joyce 175,600
|
The Committee has also established target 2009 annual incentive bonuses for Messrs. Morone, Nahl, Halftermeyer and Joyce, and for Mr. Ralph Polumbo (Mr. Madden is no longer an executive officer of the Registrant) pursuant to the Registrant's Annual Cash Incentive Bonus Program as follows:
Officer 2009 Target Bonus
------- -----------------
Joseph G. Morone $896,250
Michael C. Nahl 220,924
Daniel A. Halftermeyer 207,152
Michael J. Joyce 207,152
Ralph M. Polumbo 164,395
|
The Committee determined that bonuses for the Registrant's top management,
including the above-named officers, for 2009 would be based on one or more of:
adjusted consolidated EBIDTA, working capital, adjusted corridor or segment
EBIDTA, corridor or segment working capital or other functional metrics and
individual performance criteria. A bonus equal to the target amount will
generally be paid if the Committee determines that appropriate performance
levels in each of these areas has been achieved. Lesser bonuses may be paid if
such performance is not achieved and larger bonuses if performance exceeds such
levels. The Committee further determined, however, that it would reserve the
right to exercise its discretion, after the close of the 2009 fiscal year, as in
prior years, to determine to what extent bonuses had been earned, and reserved
the right to take individual performance factors (including, for example, the
possible adverse impact during the year of cost-reduction, plant closings or
downsizings and other restructuring-related activities in specific divisions,
regions or business lines) into account, and to employ both objective and
subjective criteria in determining the final bonuses. It is the current
intention of the Compensation Committee that such bonuses shall be paid 1/2 in
cash and 1/2 in shares of the Registrant's Class A common stock.
