	 	o	If
    actual EBITDA is better or worse than the range set by revenue of the two levels bonus % will be increased or decreased by
    5% for each level.

 

	 	●	So,
    in the example revenue of 15 (level 2-3), EBITDA can range from -2.88 to – 3.25 and bonus would be proportional, but
    if the actual EBITDA is -2.6 (level 3-4, 1 level better) bonus % would be 67.5% (62.5+5). 
	 	 	 
	 	●	If
    revenue 15 and actual EBITDA is -3.6 (level 1-2) bonus % would be 57.5% (62.5-5)EMPLOYMENT

	 	●	Threshold
    for minimum revenue and maximum EBIDA – level 0, if either revenue is less than or EBITDA loss is greater than, the
    number in the table, no bonus.
	 	 	 
	 	●	Target
    for 100% bonus is level 4.
	 	 	 
	 	●	Bonus
    cap is level 12. 
	 	 	 
	 	●	If
    revenue and commensurate EBITDA is better than those listed in level 12, additional awards would be at the Board’s discretion.
	 	 	 
	 	●	Revenue,
    EBITDA, and bonus are proportional.

 

	 	o	For
    instance, if revenue is 15, proportional EBITDA is -3.07and % bonus is 62.5%.
	 	 	 
	 	o	So,
    as long as actual EBITDA falls within the range set by revenue of the two levels (2 and 3 in the example), bonus is proportional.
	 	 	 
	 	o	If
    actual EBITDA is better or worse than the range set by revenue of the two levels bonus % will be increased or decreased by
    5% for each level.

 

	 	●	So,
    in the example revenue of 15 (level 2-3), EBITDA can range from -2.88 to – 3.25 and bonus would be proportional, but
    if the actual EBITDA is -2.6 (level 3-4, 1 level better) bonus % would be 67.5% (62.5+5). 
	 	 	 
	 	●	If
    revenue 15 and actual EBITDA is -3.6 (level 1-2) bonus % would be 57.5% (62.5-5)
