                Period.

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              PM
                shall be calculated to two decimal
                places.

      Target and Maximum Payout: Threshold payout is calculated at 6% PM
      growth.  Target payout is calculated at 10% PM

      the
      Surviving Entity, but within two years following the Change in Control your
      employment is terminated without Cause or you resign for Good
      Reason.  Such vesting will be prorated on a daily basis based upon the
      length of time within the performance measurement period that has elapsed prior
      to the date of the Change in Control or termination of employment (as
      applicable) and will be based upon an assumed achievement of all relevant
      performance goals at (i) the target level if the Change in Control or
      termination of employment (as applicable) occurs during the first half of the
      performance measurement period, and (ii) the actual level of achievement as
      of
      the date of the Change in Control or termination of employment (as applicable)
      of all relevant performance goals if the Change in Control or termination of
      employment (as applicable) occurs during the second half of the performance
      measurement period.
