2011 Short Term Incentive Bonus Plan

 

On February 8, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Eagle Rock Energy G&P, LLC (the “Company”) recommended, and the Board approved, the Company’s 2011 Short Term Incentive Bonus Plan (the “2011 Bonus Plan”). The 2011 Bonus Plan generally covers all regular, full-time employees who are employed during 2011. Each participant is awarded a target bonus award, equal to a percentage of the participant’s “annual base compensation” (as defined in the 2011 Bonus Plan), that may be earned based upon the achievement of certain company and individual performance goals. Participants may earn more or less than their target bonus award, depending on the ultimate performance attained. Company performance goals include certain financial, operational and safety goals. Bonus amounts earned under the 2011 Bonus Plan will be paid to participants in March 2012. A copy of the 2011 Bonus Plan is attached hereto.
