Exhibit A

 CEO Bonus Plan
For Fiscal Year 2012 & Beyond

Purpose:
To structure an incentive plan that aligns the interests of the CEO; the principal shareholders; and the relevant stakeholders of the company toward achieving optimum results for the respective constituents.  Objectives (set annually by the Board of Directors; and, consistent with the investment thesis developed by Paine & Partners (f/k/a Fox Paine) in its 2006 acquisition of WRCA) will consist of attainment of annual budgeted EBITDA results audited annually.
 
Structure; measurements; and application:
The bonus plan, exclusively structured for the CEO, is designed to pay a bonus of 1.00% of EBITDA for achievement of 100% of the budgeted EBITDA.  If WireCo WorldGroup (Cayman) Inc.’s (f/k/a Wire Rope Corporation of America) exceeds budgeted EBITDA by 10%, the bonus plan payment has the potential to reach a maximum target of 1.80% of EBITDA.

Range of bonus potential:
 
i.)
The minimum performance by the company in order for any bonus payment to be made requires achievement of 90% of the budgeted EBITDA for the fiscal year. At 90% of budgeted EBITDA, the bonus target would be 0.05% of EBITDA ($62,800, based on the 2012 budget of $139.6 million).
 
ii.)
As the EBITDA approaches the budgeted EBITDA (between 90% and 100%) the bonus target potential increases as a percentage of EBITDA from 0.05% to 1.00%, as described below.
 
iii.)
The bonus potential continues to increase, as described below, until it reaches a maximum target of 1.80% of EBITDA, which is achieved when EBITDA reaches 110% of the budgeted EBITDA for the fiscal year.

Calculation of Bonus:
The actual calculations for the cash payout to the CEO will be determined by the cash portion due strictly to attainment of financial goals will equal 100% of the “Performance-Based Amount,” which will be determined as follows: If actual EBITDA is 90% of budgeted EBITDA, the Performance-Based Amount shall equal 0.05% of EBITDA; if actual EBITDA is between 90% and 100% of budgeted EBITDA, the Performance-Based Amount shall equal (x) EBITDA times (y) the sum of (i) 0.05% and (ii) the number of percentage points by which actual EBITDA exceeds 90% (rounded to the nearest 10th of a point and taken as a non-percentage amount) multiplied by 0.095%; if actual EBITDA is 100% of budgeted EBITDA, the Performance-Based Amount shall equal 1.00% of EBITDA; if actual EBITDA exceeds 100% of budgeted EBITDA, the Performance-Based Amount shall equal (x) EBITDA times (y) the sum of (i) 1.00% and (ii) the number of percentage points by which actual EBITDA exceeds 100% (rounded to the nearest 10th of a point and taken as a non-percentage amount) multiplied by 0.080%; plus,

Bonus Calculation Examples:

This bonus calculation example uses the 2012 annual budgeted EBITDA as proposed by WireCo management and accepted by the Board of Directors. Subsequent year’s bonus calculations will use the annual budgeted EBITDA as proposed by WireCo management and accepted by the Board of Directors.
