Under the AIP, Mr. Schweninger will have a 2009 target award of 60% of his base salary, the payout for which can be higher or lower depending on the Company's performance in relation to performance goals set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The AIP award is subject to pro-ration based on the portion of the 2009 annual incentive period actually worked. Under the LTI, Mr. Schweninger will have a target award for the 2009-2011 performance cycle of 60% of his base salary, the payout for which can be higher or lower depending on individual performance and the Company's financial performance in relation to performance goals set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
Mr. Schweninger's LTI Award is subject to pro-ration based on the portion of the LTI performance period actually worked. The payment of any award earned by a participant for the 2009 fiscal year under the LTI is conditioned upon the continued employment of the participant by the Company until December 31, 2011 (subject to earlier vesting in specific circumstances), at which time the award will vest and become payable. Mr. Schweninger may also receive equity grants from time to time at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and will participate in employee benefit plans generally available to all employees on the same terms as similarly-situated employees.
