Annual Incentive Plan
On June 20, 2012 the Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee") of the Board of Directors of Orchard Supply Hardware Stores Corporation (the "Company") approved the Orchard Supply Hardware Stores Corporation Annual Incentive Plan (the "Annual Incentive Plan") for all full-time, exempt employees, including executive officers at the senior vice president level and above. The Annual Incentive Plan provides for cash awards (or cash equivalent awards) to be designated to eligible participants with the purpose of increasing stockholder value and the success of the Company by motivating participants to perform to the best of their abilities and to achieve the Company's objectives.
Under the Annual Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee has the authority, among other things, to designate the participants, to award grants, to establish performance periods, to set performance goals and to determine the relative weight to be given to each performance goal. The performance goals to be utilized by the Compensation Committee in setting targets for the eligible participants include, but are not limited to, corporate financial measures, corporate strategic objectives and individual performance metrics. The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine whether any element of any established performance goal shall be included or excluded when determining whether any performance goal has been achieved and an award earned by a plan participant.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Annual Incentive Plan, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Fiscal 2012 Executive Performance Criteria
On June 20, 2012 the Compensation Committee also established criteria for cash incentive awards that may be paid to our executive officers for fiscal year 2012 under the Annual Incentive Plan (the "2012 Criteria"). The 2012 Criteria establish the performance goals and potential payouts for eligible executives for fiscal year 2012. Under the 2012 Criteria, cash incentive awards will be earned by participants based upon the level of achievement of specified Company financial objectives as follows:

In addition, the Compensation Committee retains the authority to pay bonus awards in cash or the Company's Class A Common Stock, or in any combination of both.
