On February 9, 2017, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the terms and conditions of an annual incentive program under which certain of the Company’s executive officers may earn annual incentive compensation for 2017 (the “2017 Incentive Compensation Program”). Under the 2017 Incentive Compensation Program, each participating officer is eligible to receive incentive bonus compensation for 2017 under the Company’s Stock Plan based on the Company’s annual revenue in 2017, subject to achievement of a minimum level of annual revenue for the year. The terms of the 2017 Incentive Compensation Program designate the percentage of annual revenue that may be paid out under the qualified performance-based awards to any individual participant, and the maximum percentage of annual revenue that may be paid out under the awards to all of the participants as a group. The amounts payable under the qualified performance-based awards may be reduced in the discretion of the Compensation Committee based on performance. Mr. Hendrix, Mr. Wright, Mr. Fishman and Mr. Slosser are eligible to participate in the annual incentive program.
