A. Annual Incentive Plan
On March 3, 2009, Registrant's Compensation Committee ( the "Committee") approved (and its Board approved on March 4, 2009), 2009 goals for annual incentive awards under the L.B.

Awards will be paid based upon the extent to which Corporate and/or individual operating units approach or surpass 2009 planned "Pre-Tax Income(1)", "Free Cash Flow(2)", "EBITDA(3)" and, for Corporate only, planned "ROIC(4)".
The NEOs were assigned the following Target Percentages:

------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------

A participant's base salary will be multiplied by his Target Percentage to obtain a "Target Award". These Target Awards are then allocated as follows:

B. 2006 Omnibus Plan
The 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended ("Omnibus Plan") provides for the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which may include newly-issued or treasury shares, through the exercise of stock options, the award of shares of common stock, and/or Performance Share Units.
On March 3, 2009 the Committee awarded (and the Board approved on March 4, 2009), the following "Performance Share Units", which Performance Share Units, will be converted into Registrant's common stock based upon Registrant's average "ROIC(1)" over the three (3) year performance period 2009 - 2011, inclusive:
Number of
Name Performance Share Units
---- -----------------------
Stan L. Hasselbusch 16,156
Donald L. Foster 3,877
David J. Russo 3,877
Kevin R. Haugh 2,262
John F. Kasel 3,877
|
Based upon the Company's average ROIC over the 3 year period, each NEO's Performance Share Units shall be converted into Company common stock. "Average ROIC" for the three (3) year performance period shall be calculated by adding together the annual ROIC percentages and dividing by three (3). The Average ROIC target for the 2009 - 2011 performance period shall be 16%. The number of performance shares to be awarded to a participant shall be determined by multiplying the participant's Performance Share Units by the "Percentage of Performance Share" that corresponds to the Company's "Average ROIC" for the three (3) year performance period, as follows:
ROIC
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percent of
Performance Share
Level of Performance Average ROIC Units Earned
------------------------ ------------------------------- --------------------
Below Threshold Below 12.0% 0%
Threshold Equal to 12.0% 50%
Target Equal to 16.0% 100%
Outstanding Equal to or Greater than 200%
20.0%
|
The Committee plans to establish new targets annually for successive 3 year performance periods. For example, in 2010, the Committee plans again to establish targets and new financial metrics for the performance period 2010 - 2012, inclusive.
On March 3, 2009, the Committee also authorized (and the Board approved on March 4, 2009) the issuance, pursuant to the Omnibus Plan, to the NEOs of non-certificated and non-voting shares of restricted stock, which will not vest until March 5, 2013:
Name Restricted Stock
