Adoption of 2010 Performance Metrics and Target Bonuses

Under the Bonus Plan, executive officers (and specified other employees) are eligible to earn annual cash bonuses based on financial performance metrics that are defined in the Bonus Plan and established annually by the Committee.  At or near the beginning of each fiscal year, each executive officer is assigned a “Target Bonus,” expressed as a percentage of his or her base salary, and then becomes eligible to earn a bonus based on the extent to which the financial results meet, exceed or fall short of the executive officer’s predefined financial performance targets for that fiscal year.  The Bonus Plan also gives the committee the authority and responsibility to adjust the company's actual GAAP financial results to take into account the objectively determinable impact of unexpected material events for purposes of determining the extent to which performance targets were satisfied.  On March 24, 2010, the Committee established the financial performance metrics and performance targets, as well as the Target Bonuses for the Company’s executive officers under the Bonus Plan for fiscal year 2010.  Meeting a minimum corporate net income threshold, as defined in the Bonus Plan, is a prerequisite for each executive officer to earn a bonus for fiscal year 2010 under the Bonus Plan.  In addition, with respect to our executive officers, the Committee established the following financial performance metrics and confirmed the Target Bonuses under the Bonus Plan for fiscal year 2010:
