Plan Objectives:    
To establish a meaningful variable compensation component of an attractive pay-for-performance total compensation program designed to support the achievement of outstanding, strategic, financial and operational performance.


Plan Term:   
The Plan commences on the first day of Rexnord Corporation's current fiscal [period/year], _____, 20__, and ends on the last day of the current fiscal [period/year], _______, 20__.


Plan Eligibility:
As approved by the CEO, in consultation with the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Compensation Committee"). 


Target Bonus Levels:
Determined based on the position that a participant holds and that position’s relative value in the external market, value within Rexnord and its ability to impact overall company performance.


Plan Design
The Plan is based upon the Company’s achievement of financial factor targets tied to [INSERT FINANCIAL FACTOR(S)]. The financial factor targets (including the cliff) and the actual achievement against the financial factor targets are determined and approved by the Compensation Committee. The Non-Financial Goals and Objectives are established at the beginning of the Plan term and evaluated following the end of the Plan term.  


Participants must also satisfy the employment condition described under “Plan Administration and Conditions” to receive any payout under the Plan.

Financial Factors
[INSERT FINANCIAL FACTOR(S)] thresholds, which are measured as a percentage of the target, must be achieved to trigger a potential bonus payment under the Plan.  The cliff will be set at such amount determined by the Compensation Committee for the performance period (see the cliff schedule for the financial performance range – Addendum A).  Any maximum payout for the Plan will be as established by the Compensation Committee.


The CEO will have the right to recommend adjustments to performance targets to mitigate the unbudgeted impact of material, unusual or nonrecurring gains and losses, accounting changes or other extraordinary events not foreseen at the time the targets were set.  The CEO may also make adjustments to calculations and payments when necessary to reflect sound business practices.

fiscal [period/year], the participant will receive a pro-rated award under each plan based on time, base salary, and incentive target percentage in the multiple assignments during the current fiscal [period/year].  For example, if a participant in this Plan transfers to a position that is covered under the [INSERT PLAN NAME] on October 1, that participant will receive an award for the current fiscal [period/year] under this Plan prorated from the state of the current fiscal [period/year] to September 30, and as being in the [INSERT PLAN NAME] from October 1 to December 31.  
◦When a participant transfers or is promoted from a position that has one set of performance metrics under this Plan to a position that has another set of performance metrics under this Plan (e.g., from one business unit to another where the award for one position is based on one business unit's metrics and the award for the other position is based on another business unit's metrics), the participant 's award under the Plan will be prorated based on time, base salary and incentive target percentage in the multiple assignments.
◦When a participant transfers or is promoted from one position to another where both positions are covered under this Plan and the same performance metrics apply to each position, the participant will receive the greater of a prorated award based on time, base salary and incentive target percentage in the multiple assignments or an award based on base salary and target MICP percentage in effect at the end of the Plan term.
    
•If hired in the middle of the fiscal [period/year], a participant will be eligible for a payment of a pro-rated amount that is calculated at a rate of 1/12 of the annual amount for each complete calendar month of service, or 1/(the number of months in the period) for each complete calendar month of service if the period does not consist of 12 months.


•Each Plan participant will receive individual written notification of the financial factors and financial targets and the Non-Financial Goals and Objectives that will be used in calculating their MIC.


•Any amounts payable hereunder are subject the terms of Rexnord's recoupment, clawback or similar policies as may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, any of which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of any award received under this Plan.  


•The Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the Plan at any time.
