(1)

Mr. Santilli’s adjusted salary and bonus participation rate listed above shall be prorated from August 15, 2016 and shall remain in effect until December 31, 2016. Thereafter, it will revert back to the salary and bonus participation rate of the Chief Financial Officer if a new Chief Executive Officer is hired prior to January 1, 2017. Our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors retain the authority to extend his adjusted salary and bonus participation rate as stated above through March 31, 2017, regardless of whether a new Chief Executive Officer is hired prior to January 1, 2017.

 

 

(2)

The total cash compensation amount represents the target for annual cash compensation, including base salary and participation in the Company’s bonus program. In addition, Mr. Santilli is eligible to receive quarterly, profit-sharing payments. The profit sharing payments are calculated based upon half of the quarterly pre-tax Adjusted Operating Profit percentage (pre-tax Adjusted Operating Profit divided by revenue) multiplied by the gross salary earned during that quarter.
