The Committee also approved an annual base salary of $275,000 for the 2013 calendar year for Arthur G. Raymond, Jr., the Company's current Senior Vice President - Casegoods Operations. As previously announced, Mr. Raymond will cease to serve in that capacity effective January 31, 2013. The Company expects to continue to employ Mr. Raymond on a full-time basis for an undetermined period after January 31, 2013 to assist with transition matters and with several specific operations projects for the Company. Mr. Raymond's annual base salary will be prorated for the period he continues to be employed by the Company and paid monthly, consistent with the Company's customary employee payroll practices.
Annual Cash Incentives
The annual cash incentive for each executive officer for the Company's 2014 fiscal year, which ends February 2, 2014, will be paid if the Company attains 70% or more of its budgeted fiscal 2014 consolidated net income target, as approved by the Board of Directors. Each executive officer is eligible to receive a percentage of his calendar 2013 base salary, with no cash bonus paid if the Company fails to reach at least 70% of the budgeted consolidated net income target and a maximum cash bonus paid if the Company reaches 150% or more of target consolidated net income. The annual cash incentive potential, expressed as a percentage of annual base salary, for each of the executive officers is as follows:
If the Company Attains:
150% or More
70% of Target 85% of Target 100% of Target 125% of Target of Target

Long-Term Incentive Awards
Time-Based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). Each time-based RSU entitles the executive officer to receive one share of the Company's common stock if he remains continuously employed with the Company through the end of a three-year service period that ends January 15, 2016. At the discretion of the Committee, the RSUs may be paid in shares of the Company's common stock, cash (based on the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the date payment is made), or both. In addition to the service-based vesting requirement, 100% of an executive officer's RSUs will vest upon a change of control of the Company and a prorated number of the RSUs will vest upon the death, disability or retirement of the executive officer.
The number of RSUs awarded to each executive officer is set forth in the table below.
Number
Executive Officer of RSUs
Paul B. Toms, Jr. 0
Alan D. Cole 4,484
Paul A. Huckfeldt 1,576
Michael W. Delgatti, Jr. 2,974

Performance Grants. Each performance grant entitles the executive officer to receive a payment based on the achievement of two specified performance conditions. The payout will be the sum of two amounts, based on the Company's absolute and relative EPS growth over a three-year performance period that begins February 4, 2013 and ends January 31, 2016. At the discretion of the Committee, the payout can be made in cash, shares of the Company's common stock (based on the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the date payment is made), or both. The executive officer also must remain continuously employed with the Company through the end of the performance period to be eligible for a payment.
The payment for each executive officer under his performance grant will be the sum of the following amounts:
a. An amount set forth in the table below based on the growth of the Company's fully diluted earnings per share from continuing operations ("EPS") over the performance period. The Company's EPS growth must be at least 5% over the performance period for a payment to be made.

In addition, a payment will be made to an executive officer under each performance grant upon a change of control of the Company, consistent with attaining 15% EPS growth and relative EPS growth at the 50th percentile for the performance period, or a prorated amount following the death, disability or retirement of the executive officer as described in the executive officer's grant agreement.
