Determination of Award. Following the completion of each Performance Period and prior to payment of any Award, the Committee shall certify in writing whether and the extent to which the applicable Performance Targets have been achieved for such Performance Period and the amount of the Award, if any, pursuant to this Section 4, earned by Participants for such Performance Period. In determining the amount of the Award earned by a Participant for a given Performance Period, the Committee shall have the right to eliminate or reduce (but not to increase) the incentive amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period.
Determination of Individual Awards. Subject to achievement of any applicable minimum threshold objectives established under Section 7, fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 13, and compliance with the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 5(b), the Committee shall, as soon as practicable following, but not later than the December 31st immediately following, the end of a Performance Period, determine the amount of each Award to be made to a Participant under the Plan for the Performance Period, which amount shall, except as otherwise provided below, be the Business Performance Factor multiplied by the Target Award determined for such Participant for such Period pursuant to Section 9. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount of any Award that otherwise would be awarded to any Participant for any Performance Period. In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, increase the amount of any Award that otherwise would be awarded to any Participant for a Performance Period to an amount that is higher than the applicable Business Performance Factor multiplied by the Target Award based on exceptional individual, unit, division, group or Company performance. A Participant’s final Award may be adjusted up or down by their management to reflect their individual performance, except that any matters affecting Section 16 Persons or Executive Participants shall remain with the Committee. Individual Award amounts may be less than (including $0) or greater than 100% of the related Target Award. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may determine in its sole discretion not to make an Award to a particular Participant or to all Participants selected to participate in the Plan for any Performance Period.
Determination of Bonuses. Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall calculate the earned amount based upon each Participant’s Individual Target Award (such earned amount that the Committee determines to pay to a Participant for a Performance Period, a “Bonus”) based on the level of attainment of the Performance Goals or any other criteria as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee has the sole discretion to determine whether all, any portion of or an amount greater than a Participant’s Individual Target Award shall be paid, and the specific amount, if any, to be paid to each Participant, subject in all cases to the terms, conditions and limits of this Plan. The Committee may, at any time, establish (and, once established, rescind, waive or amend) additional conditions and terms of payment of Individual Target Awards (including, but not limited to, the achievement of other financial, strategic or individual goals, which may be objective or subjective) as it may deem desirable in carrying out the purposes of this Plan.
