 (1)MOCON provides its executive officers and
other employees a direct financial incentive to achieve MOCONs annual profit
goals through the MOCON, Inc. Incentive Pay Plan, which was established
pursuant to resolutions of the Compensation Committee effective January 1,
2003 and filed as an exhibit to MOCONs annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2002.  Under
the Incentive Pay Plan, annual goals are measured by MOCONs annual net income
before income taxes and incentives for Mr. Demorest, Mr. Lee, Mr. Lindemann
and Mr. Mayer, who have overall corporate responsibilities.  The Incentive Pay Plan contemplates that each
year the Compensation Committee will establish goal amounts for MOCONs
executive officers and will determine the percentage of salary at goal for
MOCONs executive officers.  On December 31,
2009, the Compensation Committee established these goal amounts and determined
these percentages.  Although the goal
amounts are confidential, the 2010 percentages of salary at goal range from
forty percent to sixty-five percent of 2010 base salary earned, at goal, with
the actual incentive paid based on the percentage of goal achieved, up to a
maximum of one hundred fifty percent. 
The fiscal 2010 goals and percentages of salary were set forth in
resolutions approved by the Compensation Committee and are not otherwise set
forth in any written agreements between MOCON and the executive officers.  The following are the amounts paid to each of
MOCONs executive officers under the Incentive Pay Plan with respect to fiscal
2009:  Mr. Demorest: $117,849; Mr. Mayer:
$54,718; Mr. Lee: $40,412, Mr. Lindemann: $52,459 and Mr. Forsberg:
$2,280.  These amounts were paid in March 2010.  (2)On December 31, 2009, the Compensation
Committee established individual special performance related bonus arrangements
for Messrs. Demorest, Mayer, Lee, Lindemann and Forsberg to further
motivate these individuals to attain certain company-related performance goals
in addition to the profitability performance-related goals covered under MOCONs
Incentive Pay Plan.  While the specific
performance goals remain confidential, the bonuses if paid will be in the form
of an extra week of paid vacation and an all-expense paid trip for two, up to
maximum amounts ranging from $10,000 to $13,000.  The terms of the fiscal 2010 special
performance related bonuses were set forth in resolutions approved by the
Compensation Committee and are not otherwise set forth in any written
agreements between MOCON and the executive officers.
