Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Shirley will be entitled to receive an annual base salary of $750,000 and an annual bonus at a target rate of 100% of his base salary, contingent on the Company achieving target performance objectives established by the Company’s Board of Directors. For the 2016 fiscal year, Mr. Shirley’s annual bonus will be calculated based on the formula applicable under the Company’s 2016 bonus plan approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company on April 4, 2016.
