How a bonus award payout is determined:

The actual earning and payout of a Participant’s individual bonus award is discretionary and will be calculated based upon: (1) the Participant’s target bonus amount; (2) the funding allocated to a Participant’s business unit (which is a percentage of the total Company-wide funding) and (3) the Participant’s Individual Achievement Factor, which takes into account the Participant’s contributions to EA relative to individual performance expectations and overall Company performance.

Payment schedule

As soon as administratively practicable following the completion of Q4 of FY2012 and Executive Compensation and Leadership Committee approval of the bonus funding and, where applicable, individual employee bonus awards.
