Ditech Networks, Inc. 2013 Management Bonus Plan

 

Bonuses pursuant to the 2013 Management Bonus Plan will be earned based on (i) limitations based on Company performance, (ii) individual executive target bonuses, (iii) component weighting factors, (iv) an overall maximum bonus limitation, (v) Company performance as against the Company’s 2013 Operating Plan based on revenues and operating loss, (vi) individual performance as against established individual goals, and (vii) a discretionary portion.

 

I.  Limitations and Definitions

 

(a)  Limitations.  No bonuses will be paid if the Company’s actual Non-GAAP operating loss does not meet or is not better than target Non-GAAP operating loss as set forth in the Company’s 2013 Operating Plan.

 

(b)  Definitions.  For the purposes of the 2013 Management Bonus Plan the following definitions shall apply:

 

“2013” 2013 means the Company’s fiscal year ending April 30, 2013.

 

“2013 Operating Plan” 2013 Operating Plan means the Company’s Fiscal 2013 Plan.

 

“Better than”  When comparing an actual result to a target result that is a loss (i.e. a negative number), the actual result is better than the target result if the actual result is either a positive number or a smaller loss than the target loss.

 

“Non-GAAP operating loss”  Non-GAAP operating loss is net loss determined in accordance with GAAP but excluding the ASC 718 non-cash expense charge for the period(s).
