6.

Administration.

(a)

Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have complete authority to administer and interpret the Plan.  The Committee shall establish the Performance Objectives for any Performance Cycle in accordance with Section 7 hereof and determine whether such Performance Objectives have been attained prior to the payment of any bonus.  Any determination made by the Committee under the Plan shall be final and conclusive.  The Committee in its sole discretion shall resolve any dispute or disagreement that may arise hereunder or as a result of or in connection with any action taken hereunder.  The Committee may employ such legal counsel, consultants and agents (including counsel or agents who are employees of the Company or a Subsidiary) as it may deem desirable for the administration of the Plan and may rely upon any opinion received from any such counsel or consultant or agent and any computation received from such consultant or agent.  The Company shall pay all expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, for the engagement of any counsel, consultant or agent.  No member or former member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable for any act, omission, interpretation, construction or determination made in connection with the Plan, other than as a result of such individual’s willful misconduct.

(b)

The Chief Executive Officer of the Company, subject to such conditions, restrictions and limitations as may be imposed by the Committee, may administer the Plan with respect to employees of the Company or a Subsidiary whose compensation is not, and is reasonably not expected to become, subject to the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code, and who are not “executive officers” for purposes of Section 303A of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual.  Any actions duly taken by the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the administration of the Plan and the qualification for and payment of bonuses to employees shall be deemed to have been taken by the Committee for purposes of the Plan.

7.

Determination of Participation, Performance Criteria and Bonuses.

(a)

Participation and Performance Criteria.  The Committee shall determine who the Participants for each Performance Cycle will be and establish the Performance Objective or Performance Objectives that must be satisfied in order for a Participant to be eligible to receive a bonus for such Performance Cycle, within 90 days of the commencement of such Performance Cycle, or if less, prior to the expiration of 25% of the length of such Performance Cycle.

(b)

Performance Objectives.  The Committee shall establish three or more targets for each Performance Cycle for the Performance Objectives established by the Committee.  The targets shall consist of at least a threshold (below which no bonus shall be payable), a plan level and a maximum level (above which no additional bonus shall be payable).

(c)

Bonus Percentages.  At the time that the Committee determines the Participants and establishes the Performance Objectives with respect to a Performance Cycle, it shall determine the bonus percentage payable to each Participant with respect to such Performance Cycle if the applicable threshold, plan or maximum level of the applicable Performance Objective is attained.  If a level achieved falls between two of the specified target levels for a Performance Cycle, a Participant shall receive a bonus based on a straight line interpolation between the bonuses for the two target levels, or such other basis as the Committee shall determine at the time the Performance Objective for the Participant is established.  The bonus percentages represent the percentage of a Participant’s base salary as in effect on the October 31 that coincides with or immediately precedes the last day of the Performance Cycle that he or she shall be entitled to receive as a bonus if specified Performance Objective targets are attained.  Subject to the provisions of Section 7(g), there shall be no limit to the minimum or maximum bonus percentages that may be established for any Performance Cycle.  Bonus percentages may differ from Participant to Participant in any Performance Cycle and a Participant’s bonus percentages may change from year to year, but with respect to each Participant for each Performance Cycle, the bonus percentage for attaining the maximum level of the applicable Performance Objective shall exceed the bonus percentage for attaining the plan level (or other specified level above the plan level) of the applicable Performance Objective, which, in turn, shall exceed the bonus percentage for attaining the threshold level (or other specified level above the threshold level) of the applicable Performance Objective.  In determining the bonus percentage for each Participant, the Committee may take into account the nature of the services rendered by such Participant, his past, 






4









present and potential contribution to the Company and its Subsidiaries, his seniority with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and such other factors as the Committee, in its discretion, shall deem relevant.

(d)

Termination of Employment During or After Performance Cycle. 

(i)

If a Participant’s employment terminates during a Performance Cycle for which he or she was determined to be a Participant by reason of his or her death, his or her estate shall receive the bonus that would otherwise have been payable to such Participant for such Performance Cycle if the plan level were achieved, prorated to the portion of such Performance Cycle actually worked by such Participant.

(ii)

If a Participant’s employment terminates during a Performance Cycle for which he was determined to be a Participant by reason of his or her disability, such Participant shall receive the bonus, if any, which would otherwise been payable to such Participant for such Performance Cycle prorated to the portion of such Performance Cycle actually worked by such Participant.  

(iii)

If a Participant’s employment terminates during a Performance Cycle by reason of his or her Retirement, such Participant shall receive the bonus, if any, which would otherwise have been payable to such Participant for such Performance Cycle prorated to the portion of such Performance Cycle actually worked by such Participant.

(iv)

If a Participant’s employment terminates during a Performance Cycle for any reason other than on account of death, disability or Retirement, such Participant shall receive no bonus for such Performance Cycle.

(v)

If a Participant’s employment terminates for any reason on or after the end of a Performance Cycle but prior to the date of payment of a bonus, such Participant shall receive the bonus, if any, which would otherwise have been payable to such Participant for such Performance Cycle.

(e)

Determination of Bonuses.  Subject to Section 8(a), the Committee shall determine whether any Performance Objective targets were achieved for a Performance Cycle, which Participants shall have earned bonuses as the result thereof, and the bonus percentage such Participants are entitled to no later than the end of the first quarter of the Performance Cycle immediately subsequent to the Performance Cycle with respect to which the bonuses were earned.  With respect to bonuses intended to qualify as performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee must certify in writing prior to the payment of the bonus that the applicable Performance Objective targets and any other material terms were in fact satisfied.  Written certification for this purpose shall include, without limitation, approved minutes of the Committee meeting in which the certification is made.

(f)

Change In Control.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that there shall be a Change in Control during a Performance Cycle, each Participant for such Performance Cycle shall be entitled to receive a bonus equal to the bonus payable to such Participant if the plan level for such Performance Cycle had been achieved prorated to the portion of such Performance Cycle actually worked by such Participant through the date of the Change in Control.  

(g)

Absolute Maximum Bonus.  Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary, the maximum bonus that may be paid to any Participant under the Plan with respect to any Fiscal Year may not exceed $4,000,000.

(h)

Unusual or Nonrecurring Events.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Performance Objective targets may be adjusted to take into account unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, a Subsidiary or a division or business unit, or the financial statements thereof, or changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles to the extent such unusual or nonrecurring events or changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles otherwise would result in dilution or enlargement of the bonus intended to be paid.  With respect to any bonus intended to qualify as performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code, it is intended that such adjustment be made in such manner as will not cause the bonus to fail to qualify as performance-based compensation.  

8.

Payment.

(a)

Timing.  Payment of any bonus to a Participant shall be made:






5









(i)

 in the case of a bonus payable in accordance with Section 7(d)(i), within 30 days of the Participant’s death;

in the case of a bonus payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(f), within 30 days of the Change in Control; or 

(iii)

in the case of bonuses payable under the Plan other than a bonus payable under Section 7(d)(i) or Section 7(f), within 30 days following the Committee’s determination and certification pursuant to Section 7(e) that the applicable targets for the preceding Performance Cycle were achieved, that the bonus was earned and what bonus percentage the Participant is entitled to, provided that the date of such payment shall occur no later than the 15th day of the third month following the later of (x) the last day of the Fiscal Year in which the Performance Cycle ends or (y) the last day of the Participant’s taxable year in which the Performance Cycle ends, in either case, in which the right to the payment of the bonus is no longer subject to forfeiture.

(b)

Forfeiture.

(i)

Except as otherwise set forth in Section 7(d) or in the case of a Change in Control, in order to remain eligible to receive a bonus, a Participant must be employed by the Company on the last day of the applicable Performance Cycle.

(ii)

In the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results to correct a material error or inaccuracy resulting in whole or in part from the fraud or intentional misconduct of a Participant, as determined by the Board or a committee thereof, the Board or the committee:

(x)

will review or cause to be reviewed all bonuses paid to the Participant pursuant to the Plan on the basis of having met or exceeded Performance Objective(s) or other measures or goals for Performance Cycles beginning after 2008 to the extent the bonuses relate, in whole or in part, to the periods with respect to which the financial statements are restated and, if a lesser bonus or bonuses would have been paid to the Participant based upon the restated financial results, the Board or the committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, recover or cause to be recovered for the benefit of the Company the amount by which the Participant’s bonus or bonuses for the restated period(s) exceeded such lesser bonus or bonuses, plus a reasonable rate of interest; and 

(y)

in addition to the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may take or cause to be taken for the benefit of the Company such additional action(s) deemed by the Board or committee to be appropriate including, without limitation, cancellation of the Participant’s outstanding bonus opportunities and recovery (in whole or in part) of any additional amounts relating to prior bonuses paid to the Participant under the Plan.

(c)

Form of Payment.  All bonuses payable under the Plan, if any, shall be payable in cash.  All amounts hereunder shall be paid solely from the general assets of the Company.  The Company shall not maintain any separate fund to provide any benefits hereunder, and each Participant shall be solely an unsecured creditor of the Company with respect thereto.

(d)

Six-Month Delay.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, in the event any payment hereunder constitutes “deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A (as defined in Section 12(d) herein)), and such payment is payable to a Participant who is a “specified employee” (as determined under the Company’s policy for identifying specified employees) on the date of his or her “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), the date for payment of such bonus shall be the earlier of (i) death or (ii) the later of (x) the date that payment would otherwise be made hereunder or (y) the first business day following the end of the sixth-month period following the date of the Participant’s separation from service.

9.

General Provisions of the Plan.

(a)

Term of the Plan.  The Plan shall be effective with respect to Fiscal Years 2005 through 2009 and shall terminate upon the payment of all bonuses, if any, earned with respect to Fiscal Year 2009, unless the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company’s Outstanding Voting Securities present in person or by proxy at any special or 






6









annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company occurring on or prior to the date of the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders shall approve the continuation of the Plan.

(b)

Amendment and Termination.  Notwithstanding Section 9(a), the Board or the Committee may at any time amend, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan as it deems advisable; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be effective without approval by the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company’s Outstanding Voting Securities present in person or by proxy at any special or annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, to the extent such approval is necessary to continue to qualify the amounts payable hereunder to “covered employees” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code) as deductible under Section 162(m) of the Code.

(c)

Designation of Beneficiary.  Each Participant may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (which beneficiary may be an entity other than a natural person) to receive any payments which may be made following the Participant’s death.  Such designation may be changed or canceled at any time without the consent of any such beneficiary.  Any such designation, change or cancellation must be made in a form approved by the Committee and shall not be effective until received by the Committee.  If no beneficiary has been named, or the designated beneficiary or beneficiaries shall have predeceased the Participant, the beneficiary shall be the Participant’s spouse or, if no spouse survives the Participant, the Participant’s estate.  If a Participant designates more than one beneficiary, the rights of such beneficiaries shall be payable in equal shares, unless the Participant has designated otherwise.

(d)

Withholding.  Any amount payable to a Participant or a beneficiary under the Plan shall be subject to any applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes and any other amounts that the Company or a Subsidiary is required at law to deduct and withhold from such payment.

10.

No Right of Continued Employment.  Neither the existence nor any term of the Plan shall be construed as conferring upon any Participant any right to continue in the employment of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor shall participation herein for any Performance Cycle confer upon any Participant any right to participate in the Plan with respect to any subsequent Performance Cycle.

11.

No Limitation on Corporate Actions.  Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from taking any corporate action, which is deemed by it to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on any bonuses paid under the Plan.  No employee, beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any Subsidiary as a result of any such action.

12.

Miscellaneous.

(a)

Nonalienation of Benefits.  Except as expressly provided herein, no Participant or beneficiary shall have the power or right to transfer, anticipate, or otherwise encumber the Participant’s interest under the Plan.  The Company’s obligations under the Plan are not assignable or transferable except to (i) a corporation or other entity which acquires all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or (ii) any corporation or other entity into which the Company may be merged or consolidated.  The provisions of the Plan shall inure to the benefit of each Participant and the Participant’s beneficiaries, heirs, executors, administrators or successors in interest.

(b)

Severability.  If any provision of the Plan is held unenforceable, the remainder of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the Plan.

(c)

Governing Law.  The Plan shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.
