SCHEDULE A

Performance Bonus: Based on our common understanding of the significance of your participation in the budgeting process of the Company, your bonus shall be based on specific revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) goals, which shall allow you to earn a target annual bonus equal to thirty-five percent (35%) of your annual base salary for the year ending December 31, 2010, forty-five percent (45%) of your annual base salary for the years ending December 31, 2011 through 2014 and fifty percent (50%) of your annual base salary for the years beginning after December 31, 2014, if, in each year, the “Growth” target at the “Baseline bonus” level in the applicable grid below is achieved.  The Company’s auditors will determine EBITDA after taking into account all necessary provisions and the accrual of all bonuses, including your own bonus, and excluding all extraordinary items.  Twenty-five percent (25%) of the bonus amount will be determined by revenues (the “revenue bonus”) and seventy-five percent (75%) by EBITDA (the “EBITDA bonus”).

 

EBITDA Bonus

 

 

1. At 100% of EBITDA target (i.e., 10% growth), your EBITDA bonus will equal 100% of 75% of 50% of base salary.

 

 

2. Should EBITDA fall short or exceed EBITDA target, your EBITDA bonus will decrease or increase based on the applicable grid, below.  For example, if there is a 50% increase in EBITDA, the EBITDA bonus would equal 150% of 75% of 50% of base salary; and if there is a 10% decrease in EBITDA, the EBITDA bonus would equal 25% of 75% of 50% of base salary.

 

 

3. If the decrease in EBITDA is 15% or more, no EBITDA bonus will be paid.

 

 

Revenue Bonus

 

 

1. At 100% of revenue target (i.e., 10% growth), your revenue bonus will equal 100% of 25% of 50% of base salary.

 

 

2. Should revenue fall short or exceed revenue target, your revenue bonus will decrease or increase based on the applicable grid, below.  For example, if there is a 50% increase in revenue, the revenue bonus would equal 150% of 25% of 50% of base salary; and if there is a10% decrease in revenue, the revenue bonus would equal 25% of 25% of 50% of base salary.

 

 

3. If the decrease in revenue is 15% or more, no revenue bonus will be paid.

 

 

4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if EBITDA for the year preceding the year for which the EBITDA bonus is to be determined is less than $1 million, then the EBITDA bonus will be calculated by comparing the current year’s EBITDA to the EBITDA of the first preceding year in which EBITDA was in excess of $2 million.

 

 

General

 

 

1. Both bonuses will be adjusted pro rata if EBITDA and/or revenues fall in between two grid percentages.

 

 

2. The first $75,000 of bonus would be paid in cash.  The balance would be paid half in cash and half in shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at the VWAP for the five trading days ending two trading days before issuance.  They will be issued under the Company’s Performance Equity Plan 2009 or, in the event no shares are available under the Company’s Performance Equity Plan 2009, such new performance equity plan as the Company may adopt.

 

 

3. The Company and executive to mutually agree on how to handle all acquisitions.
