	Determination of Award and Payment 




The Committee has determined that bonus awards may be paid on the basis of one or more of the following factors depending upon the classification of the Participant:


A.Performance Criteria


1. Target Adjusted EBITDA


A Committee approved Company Adjusted EBITDA goal on a consolidated basis (“Target Adjusted EBITDA”) may be used for determining the payment of a bonus award. Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of computing the bonus awards, as set forth herein, shall be calculated on the same basis as disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company’s audited annual financial statements, on a consolidated basis, will be used to determine whether the Target Adjusted EBITDA goal was met. Target Adjusted EBITDA shall be calculated on a basis to include the payment of bonuses under this plan as a deduction.


2. TRIR


The Company’s total reportable incident rate (“TRIR”) may be used for determining the payment of a bonus award. TRIR for purposes of computing the bonus awards, as set forth herein, shall be determined by the Committee and approved by the Board of Directors each year. For certain Business Unit and Operating Company Executives and Operating Company Eligible Employees, TRIR may be calculated on the business unit division and/or operating company division as determined by executive management in consultation with the Committee.
 
3. Gross Profit


Target gross profit on a business unit and/or operating company basis (“Target Gross Profit”) may be used for determining the payment of a bonus award for certain Business Unit and Operating Company Executives and Operating Company Eligible Employees. Actual gross profit on a business unit and/or operating company basis will be derived from components of the Company’s financial statements, or portions thereof, as filed with the SEC and shall be determined by executive management in consultation with the Committee. 


B.Award Payments


The annual bonus award for a given fiscal year will be paid to Participants in the Program in the year following the performance year after the outside auditors have completed their annual audit of the Company.

	Objectives and Formulas for Determination of the Bonus Awards  




A.Executive Management


For Participants designated as members of Executive Management, the percent of base salary eligible to be earned as a bonus set forth in the terms of their employment. Subject to the thresholds and maximums set forth below, eighty percent (80%) of the potential award will be based upon achievement of Target Adjusted EBITDA, and twenty percent (20%) of the potential award will be based upon Company composite TRIR. Payment of the portion of the bonus payable upon achievement of Target Adjusted EBITDA will be determined by actual Adjusted EBITDA. The 











following table illustrates by example various levels of bonuses payable under certain threshold, target and maximum amounts and other Adjusted EBITDA assumptions: 


	
				
	Actual Adjusted EBITDA
	 
	Percentage of Adjusted EBITDA Component Earned

	90% of Target Adjusted EBITDA (threshold award)
	  
	50
	%

	100% of Target  Adjusted EBITDA
	  
	80
	%

	110% of Target Adjusted EBITDA
	  
	100
	%

	125% of Target Adjusted EBITDA
	  
	150
	%

	150% of Target Adjusted EBITDA (maximum award)
	  
	 200
	%




 
Payment of the portion of the bonus payable upon achievement of Company composite TRIR will be determined by achievement of TRIR. The following table illustrates by example various levels of bonuses payable under certain threshold, target and maximum amounts and other TRIR assumptions: 


	
				
	 Actual Results (TRIR)

If actual Adjusted EBITDA is lower than the threshold, or the TRIR is higher than the threshold, no amounts will be earned for the respective component. No additional bonus will be earned if the actual Adjusted EBITDA is beyond the maximum, or if TRIR is below the maximum earning threshold. Linear interpolation will be used to determine amounts earned for actual Adjusted EBITDA and TRIR between the thresholds and maximums.
