Incentive Compensation Plan Performance Goals and Target Payments

On July 26, 2012, the Board of Directors of Key Tronic Corporation ("Company"), upon the recommendation of its Compensation Committee, established the performance goals and target payment percentages for each participant in the incentive compensation plan ("Plan") for the Company's fiscal year 2013.

A minimum Company profit goal must be achieved in order for any payments to be made to participants in the Plan. Payments under the Plan for fiscal year 2013 will be based on three profit goal performance levels established by the Board:
entry level, expected value level and overachievement level. Payments under the Plan will be a percentage of the participant's base salary paid during fiscal year 2013. In addition to payments based upon the three profit goal performance levels, the Board established a stretch performance goal for Company profit achieved in excess of the over achievement level goal. If a profit exceeding the over achievement profit goal is achieved, then each participant in the Plan for fiscal year 2013, including the executive officers of the Company will participate in a pool equal to 20% of the profit achieved above the stretch goal beginning point. The stretch goal beginning point is five times the actual incentive compensation expense (excluding the stretch goal component) for fiscal year 2013. Participants will participate in the stretch goal pool pro rata based upon the participant's base salary paid during fiscal 2013.

The following executive officers of the Company are among the participants in the Plan: Craig D. Gates, President & CEO; Ronald F. Klawitter, Executive Vice President of Administration, CFO and Treasurer; and Douglas G. Burkhardt, Executive Vice President of Worldwide Operations. Under the Plan the potential payment percentages established by the Board for fiscal year 2013 for the President & CEO range from 5% of base salary paid during fiscal year 2013 if entry level performance is achieved to 75% if overachievement level performance is achieved. The potential payment percentages established by the Board for fiscal year 2013 for the Executive Vice President of Administration, CFO and Treasurer and the Executive Vice President of Worldwide Operations range from 4% of base salary paid during fiscal year 2013 if entry level performance is achieved to 60% if overachievement level performance is achieved. Payment percentages will be interpolated for actual performance levels achieved between entry level and expected value level and between expected value level and overachievement level.

Payments under the Plan will be made as soon as administratively possible after the end of fiscal year 2013. A participant must be an active employee of the Company at the time payments are made under the Plan in order to receive a payment.

Fiscal Years 2013-2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan Performance Measures and Awards

On July 26, 2012, the Board of Directors upon recommendation of its Compensation Committee, established long term incentive plan performance measures for the three fiscal year period 2013 through 2015. The Board of Directors also approved target awards for the three year period for each of the Company's officers and non-employee Directors. The fiscal 2013-2015 performance measures are based on a combination of sales growth targets and return on invested capital targets. No cash awards will be made to participants if actual Company performance does not exceed the minimum target performance measures. The payments after the end of fiscal year 2015 to each of the named executive officers for the three year performance period, if expected target performance measures are achieved, are as follows: Craig D. Gates, President and CEO-$275,000, Ronald F. Klawitter, Executive Vice President of Administration, CFO and Treasurer-$165,000 and Douglas G. Burkhardt, Executive Vice President of Worldwide Operations -


$100,000. The payment after the end of fiscal year 2015 to each non-employee Director of the Company for said three year period, if expected target performance measures are achieved, is $15,000. Actual cash payments to participants under the target awards may be as much as 100% less than the target award amounts or as much as 50% greater than the target award amounts depending on the extent to which Company performance is less than or exceeds the expected target performance measures.

2010 Incentive Plan Awards

On July 26, 2012, the Board of Directors upon recommendation of its Compensation Committee granted Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARS") awards under the Company's 2010 Incentive Plan to Craig D. Gates, President & CEO in the amount of 50,000 SARS, to Ronald F. Klawitter, Executive Vice President of Administration, CFO and Treasurer in the amount of 25,000 SARS and to Douglas G. Burkhardt, Vice President of Worldwide Operations in the amount of 20,000 SARS. The Board of Directors, upon recommendation of its Compensation Committee, also granted awards under the Plan to each non-employee Director of the Company in the amount of 7,500 SARS. These SARS will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date of the awards, and only to the extent the Company's return on invested capital ("ROIC") over the vesting period compared to the weighted average of a selected group of peer companies over the same period has reached the levels set forth below as of the vesting date:

                               Performance Relative         % of Award
             Level             To Group of Peer Companies   That Vests
             Below Entry       <90% of Industry Average              0%
             Entry             90% of Industry Average              50%
             Expected Value    Industry Average                     75%
             Overachievement   110% of Industry Average            100%

Upon the exercise of the award, the grantee will be entitled to receive payment in cash or common stock in an amount determined by multiplying: (a) the difference between the per share fair market value of the Common Stock of Key Tronic Corporation on the date of exercise over the per share base price of the SARS of $7.45 per share by (b) the number of SARS exercised.
