Performance Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus. The Board in its discretion will determine whether such annual bonus will be paid, the amount of such bonus and its form of payment. The Executive’s target annual bonus amount is 190175% of his her Base Salary or such greater amount as may subsequently be established by the Board (the “Target Bonus”). During the first ninety (90) days of each calendar year, the Board, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, shall establish the performance goals applicable to such year’s annual bonus opportunity, as well as the framework for awarding an annual bonus that is higher or lesser than the Target Bonus. Such criteria shall be established by the Board, after consultation with the Executive, and pursuant to a process that is consistent with past practice. If the Board determines in its discretion that the Executive’s performance meets or exceeds the criteria established by the Board for the award of a Target Bonus, the Board may award the Executive the Target Bonus or a higher amount. Likewise, if the Board determines in its discretion that the Executive’s performance does not meet said criteria, the Board may award a lesser amount, or no bonus may be awarded. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Executive’s eligibility to receive any bonus under this paragraph shall be expressly conditioned on, among other things, the Executive remaining employed with the Company up through any designated distribution date set by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, in the event of a “Change of Control” (as defined in Exhibit D attached hereto) or an Externalization of Management (as defined in herein), immediately prior to such Change of Control or Externalization of Management the Company shall be obligated to pay the Executive: (A) when such Change of Control or Externalization of Management occurs during a calendar year in respect of which no annual bonus has yet been paid, a pro-rated annual bonus for such calendar year, based on the number of days in such calendar year prior to the Change of ControlControl or Externalization of Management; and (B) when such Change of Control or Externalization of Management occurs after the conclusion of a calendar year in respect of which no annual bonus has yet been paid (i.e., such Change of Control or Externalization of Management occurs after December 31st, but before the designated payment date for the annual bonus in respect of such completed calendar year), an annual bonus for such completed calendar year. In the case of both of the preceding clauses (A) and (B), such amounts shall each be separately subject to any cap on Executive’s annual bonus previously established by the Board (or any committee thereof) and shall each be determined in accordance with the criteria most recently designated by the Board (or any committee thereof) for the determination of such amounts, as follows: (I) any portion of the annual bonus amounts that had been previously designated by the Board (or any committee thereof) to be determined relative to the achievement of criteria measuring the financial performance of the Company with respect to a calendar year, shall be paid in amounts based on the attainment of such criteria (on an annualized basis, if in respect of less than a full calendar year), through the date immediately prior to such Change of Control or Externalization of Management (or, as applicable, through the end of any such completed calendar year) and in accordance with the methodology previously approved by the Board (or any committee thereof) for payment of such amounts of annual bonus (i.e., an amount at, higher, or lower than the target amounts for such portions of annual bonus); and (II) any portion of the annual bonus amounts that had been previously designated by the Board (or any committee thereof) to be determined relative to the achievement of criteria measuring the individual performance of the Executive, shall be paid in amounts equal to the target amount of such portion of the Executive’s annual bonus.
