2012 Incentive Compensation Program

On December 19, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of LaCrosse Footwear, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the Company’s 2012 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Incentive Program”). Executive officers and other non-union employees who meet certain conditions will be eligible to participate in the Incentive Program.

Each participating employee is eligible to receive compensation under the Incentive Program based on a target incentive compensation amount derived from the employee’s base compensation and the Company’s achievement of annual financial goals for net sales and pre-tax profit, excluding the impact of certain contract military orders. Achievement of the Company’s financial goals at the targeted level entitles participating employees to receive 100% of their target compensation. The payable percentage of target compensation increases if the Company achieves greater than 100% of the applicable financial goals, and decreases if the Company achieves less than 100% of the applicable goals, subject to minimum thresholds below which no payment will be made based on the applicable goal. Participating employees are eligible to receive additional compensation under the Incentive Program based on gross margin dollars attributable to qualifying military contract orders.

All payments under the Incentive Program are subject to the Company’s achievement of a minimum threshold for pre-tax profit.

The Incentive Program description as distributed to the Company’s non-union employees is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Incentive Program does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
