Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this paragraph (b), the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period an annual cash bonus (the "Annual Bonus") equal to a percentage of his Annual Base Salary. Such percentage shall be substantially consistent with the targeted percentages generally awarded to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies, but at least equal to the higher of # the percentage obtained by dividing his targeted annual bonus for the then current fiscal year by his then Annual Base Salary or # the average percentage of his annual base salary (as in effect for the applicable years) that was paid or payable, including by reason of any deferral, to the Executive by the Company and its Affiliated Companies as an annual bonus (however described, including as annual incentive compensation) for each of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Effective Date occurs (or, if higher, for each of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the fiscal year in which a Change of Control occurs, if a Change of Control occurs following the Effective Date). For the purposes of any calculation required to be made under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, an annual bonus shall be annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less than twelve full months or with respect to which the Executive was employed for, and received pro-rated annual incentive compensation with respect to, less than the full twelve months, and, if the Executive has not been employed for the full duration of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the year in which the Effective Date occurs, the average shall be calculated over the duration of the Executive's employment in such period. Each such Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than the end of the second month of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless the Executive otherwise elects to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus in accordance with a deferred compensation plan of the Company or its Affiliated Companies that complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The foregoing provisions of this paragraph # shall be qualified by the following terms and conditions. If # as of the end of any fiscal year during the Employment Period the Executive is a “Covered Employee” as defined in Code Section 162(m), (B) Code Section 162(m) remains in effect as of the end of such fiscal year and as of such date is applicable to the payment of an Annual Bonus for such fiscal year and # the Executive participated for such fiscal year in an Annual Incentive Plan (as hereinafter defined), the Annual Bonus for such fiscal year shall be paid to the Executive pursuant to the Annual Incentive Plan, rather than in accordance with the first four sentences of this paragraph (b), in the amount, at the time and upon the other terms and conditions specified in such Annual Incentive Plan; provided, however, that if a Change of Control occurs before such payment is made, the Executive shall be paid, in lieu of such amount and on the date on which such Change of Control occurs, as follows: # as the Annual Bonus for such fiscal year, an amount equal to the greater of # the maximum amount payable to the Executive under the Annual Incentive Plan for such fiscal year assuming achievement thereunder of the Corporate Performance Objective (as hereinafter defined) for such fiscal year and # the maximum amount payable in accordance with the first four sentences of this paragraph (b) and (B) as Annual Bonuses for all prior fiscal years ended during the Employment Period, an amount equal to the aggregate amount, if any, by which the maximum amount otherwise payable in accordance with the first four sentences of this paragraph # for all such prior fiscal years exceeds the aggregate amount of all Annual Bonuses previously paid to the Executive for such prior fiscal years pursuant to the Annual Incentive Plan or otherwise under this paragraph (b). If, as of the end of any fiscal year for which an Annual Bonus is payable pursuant to this paragraph (b), the Executive is not, and at any time during the three full fiscal years preceding such date was not, a “Covered Employee” as defined in [Section 162(m)], the Executive shall be paid the Annual Bonus for such fiscal year in accordance with the first four sentences of this paragraph (b); provided, however, that the amount of the Annual Bonus so paid to the Executive shall be reduced by the amount, if any, of the annual cash bonus paid to the Executive for such fiscal year pursuant to an Annual Incentive Plan. For purposes of this paragraph (b), “Annual Incentive Plan” means an annual cash incentive compensation plan of the Company that # is intended to result in, and, in the opinion of a nationally reputable law firm having significant experience with Code Section 162(m), does result in, the payment of qualified performance-based compensation for purposes of Code Section 162(m) (assuming solely for this purpose achievement of the Corporate Performance Objective to which the payment of such compensation is subject), # conditions the payment of all compensation pursuant thereto on the achievement of a Corporate Performance Objective that is generally applicable to all participants in such plan, and # is administered, and includes a Corporate Performance Objective that is selected, in a manner that is consistent in all material respects with past practice as applied to the most recent annual cash incentive compensation plan of the Company that was in effect prior to the date of this Agreement (December 31, 2009) for which the applicable Corporate Performance Objective was achieved. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Corporate Performance Objective” to which any payment of compensation is subject shall mean the objective performance objective which is selected and established by the Compensation Committee of the Board for purposes of making such payment fully deductible for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Code Section 162(m).
Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this paragraph (b), the Executive shall, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, be entitled to an annual cash bonus (the "Annual Bonus") opportunity equal to a percentage of his Annual Base Salary. Such percentage shall be substantially consistent with the targeted percentages generally awarded to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies, but at least equal to the higher of # the percentage obtained by dividing his targeted annual bonus for the then current fiscal year by his then Annual Base Salary or # the average percentage of his annual base salary (as in effect for the applicable years) that was paid or payable, including by reason of any deferral, to the Executive by the Company and its Affiliated Companies as an annual bonus (however described, including as annual incentive compensation) for each of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Effective Date occurs (or, if higher, for each of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the fiscal year in which a Change of Control occurs, if a Change of Control occurs following the Effective Date). For the purposes of any calculation required to be made under [clause (ii)] of the preceding sentence, an annual bonus shall be annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less than twelve full months or with respect to which the Executive was employed for, and received pro-rated annual incentive compensation with respect to, less than the full twelve months, and, if the Executive has not been employed for the full duration of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the year in which the Effective Date occurs, the average shall be calculated over the duration of the Executive's employment in such period. Each such Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than the end of the second month of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless the Executive otherwise elects to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus in accordance with a deferred compensation plan of the Company or its Affiliated Companies that complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The foregoing provisions of this paragraph # shall be qualified by the following terms and conditions.
Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary, the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, an annual bonus in cash at least equal to the highest cash bonus paid to the Executive by the Company and its affiliated companies in respect of the ten fiscal years (or such shorter period during which the Executive has been employed by the Company) immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Effective Date occurs (annualized for any fiscal year during such period consisting of less than twelve full months or with respect to which the Executive has been employed by the Company for less than twelve full months) (referred to herein as the "Annual Bonus"). Each such Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than the end of the third month of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus.
Annual Incentive Compensation. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to participate in an annual cash bonus program maintained for senior executive officers of the Company (the “Annual Incentive Program” or the “Plan”), with a minimum target annual bonus equal to 75% of Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) for each year during the Employment Period in which Executive participates in the Annual Incentive Program; provided, however, that any bonus related to calendar year 2016 # shall be prorated for the period between the Effective Date and December 31, 2016, and # shall not be less than the full amount of the bonus for the prorated period, as calculated per the terms of the Company’s existing Performance Bonus Plan. The actual amount of the annual bonus earned by and payable to Executive for any year or portion of a year, as applicable, shall be determined upon the satisfaction of goals and objectives established by the Compensation Committee pursuant to the Plan, and shall be subject to such other terms and conditions of the Annual Incentive Program as in effect from time to time, provided that all awards shall be designed in a manner such that the annual bonus will be treated as “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”). Each bonus paid under the Annual Incentive Program shall be paid to Executive no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year for which the bonus is earned.
Annual Incentive. In addition to the Annual Base Salary, the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, annual incentive compensation in cash (the “Annual Incentive Award”) at least equal to the higher of # the Executive’s target annual incentive award under the Company’s Management Committee and Shared Services Incentive Compensation Plan, or any comparable plan in which the Executive is eligible to participate, or any predecessor or successor plan thereto (the “Annual Incentive Plan”), for the fiscal year in which the Effective Date occurs as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date (or if no target has been established, the target annual incentive award in effect for the most recently completed fiscal year prior to the Effective Date, (the “Target Annual Incentive Award”), and # the average of the annual incentive awards earned under the Annual Incentive Plan for the last three full fiscal years prior to the Effective Date (or for such lesser number of full fiscal years prior to the Effective Date for which the Executive was eligible to earn such an award, and annualized in the case of any pro rata award earned for a partial fiscal year), in each case, including any award or portion thereof that has been earned but deferred or paid in the form of Company common stock or equity awards, plus any additional discretionary annual incentive compensation awarded for a fiscal year of the Company and the Affiliated Entities at the time annual incentive awards are determined (such amount, the “Recent Annual Incentive Award”). Each such Annual Incentive Award shall be paid no later than two and a half months after the end of the fiscal year for which the Annual Incentive Award is awarded, unless the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Incentive Award pursuant to an arrangement that meets the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary, the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) in cash at least equal to the Executive’s target annual bonus under the Company’s Annual Incentive Bonus Program, or any comparable bonus under any predecessor or successor plan, for the fiscal year in which the Change of Control Date occurs, which shall be calculated as follows: # the target bonus percentage as established by the Board prior to the Change of Control Date for the fiscal year in which the Change of Control Date occurs, multiplied by # the Executive’s Annual Base Salary (the “Recent Annual Bonus”). In the event that, prior to the Change of Control Date, the Executive’s target bonus percentage has not been established by the Board under the Annual Incentive Bonus Program or any comparable bonus under any predecessor or successor plan, then for purposes of this Agreement, the Executive’s Recent Annual Bonus shall be calculated by using the target bonus percentage for the other executives in the Executive’s peer group (determined based on title, responsibilities and duties) who are parties to a Key Employee Change of Control Contract with the Company. Such Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than January 31 of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus in accordance with procedures established by the Company that comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Annual Bonus. Executive will have an annual bonus opportunity for each fiscal year of the Company based on the achievement of financial and performance objectives set by the Committee (“Bonus Opportunity”). The annual Bonus Opportunity and specific performance and financial objectives will be set forth in Executive’s individual performance and incentive plan for each fiscal year. Executive’s annual Bonus Opportunity at target levels for any year shall not be less than 125% of his then-current Base Salary for such year (the “Target Bonus Opportunity”). Executive must be an active employee on the date the annual bonuses are paid on a Company-wide basis in order to be eligible to receive any bonus payment (except as otherwise expressly provided in § 8), unless # Executive’s employment terminates following a failure to extend his Employment Period in accordance with § 3, # his employment terminates at or after the end of the applicable fiscal year and # he satisfies all or substantially all of the performance requirements (other than continued service) for a bonus for such fiscal year, in which event he shall be eligible for a bonus as determined by the Committee, and such bonus, if any, shall be paid no later than two and one-half (2½) months after the end of such fiscal year.
Annual Incentive Bonus Plan. With respect to each year during Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual cash incentive bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) pursuant to the terms of the 2014 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan or any successor plan thereto, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Annual Incentive Plan”). Executive’s target incentive opportunity under the Annual Incentive Plan shall be 90% of Base Salary (with Base Salary for the year on a prorated basis, considering the effective date of any changes during the year). Executive has been determined by the Committee (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) to be a Participant (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) under the Annual Incentive Plan, and Executive’s Performance Goals (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) shall be determined by the Committee (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) in accordance with [Section 5] of the Annual Incentive Plan (or the corresponding section of any successor plan). The Annual Bonus for a year (if any) shall be paid to Executive in accordance with [Section 6] of the Annual Incentive Plan (or the corresponding section of any successor plan).
Annual Incentive Bonus Plan. With respect to each year during Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual cash incentive bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) pursuant to the terms of the 2014 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan or any successor plan thereto, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Annual Incentive Plan”).

Executive has been determined by the Committee (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) to be a Participant (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) under the Annual Incentive Plan, and Executive’s Performance Goals (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) shall be determined by the Committee (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) in accordance with Section 5 of the Annual Incentive Plan (or the corresponding section of any successor plan). The Annual Bonus for a year (if any) shall be paid to Executive in accordance with Section 6 of the Annual Incentive Plan (or the corresponding section of any successor plan).
Annual Bonus. During the Term, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in the Companys executive bonus plan, under which a discretionary bonus (the Annual Bonus) may be awarded by the Board for each calendar year, payable in cash in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Companys then applicable short-term bonus or other cash incentive program (each, a Bonus Program). The Executives aggregate target bonus award for each calendar year will be 30% of his then Base Salary (the Target Annual Bonus). The Executives actual Annual Bonus may range from a minimum amount of 0% to a maximum of 30% of his Base Salary, and will be determined by the Company and will be contingent upon the attainment of performance goals reasonably established in good faith by the Company. The target date for any Annual Bonus compensation payable to the Executive shall be March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year to which such Annual Bonus relates, subject to the approvals required above. Such Annual Bonuses, if any, are awarded in part to incentivize the Executive to remain in the Companys employ, therefore it is a condition of any award that the Executive remain employed by the Company through the date the Annual Bonus is paid, except as set forth in Section 5 herein.
