As used in this Agreement, the term “affiliated companies” shall include any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company.

Company Performance Bonus: A target bonus based on 25% of Executive’s actual paid out salary during the period will be the basis for calculation (“Bonus Base”). The Company Performance Bonus will be determined by the Compensation Committee calculated upon the Company’s actual performance against financial targets with the percentage (%) of achievement against the targets being used for the actual bonus calculation. As an example, calculation may be x% achievement of financial goals times the Bonus Base will equal Company Performance Bonus (with a minimum payout of 0% percentage and a maximum payout of 125% of Bonus Base).

You will remain eligible to participate in the Company’s annual bonus program, and your target bonus shall remain 85% of your base salary based on both Company performance against objectives as set forth in the Company bonus program and your individual performance. You must remain employed by the Employer through the payout date to receive the payout. For 2024 (paid in 2025), your annual bonus will be prorated based on changes to your base salary during the 2024 plan year.

Each of the two performance factors will have an assigned target level for purposes of the Program. Assuming a “par” performance (i.e., achieving each target level), the weighting of the bonus percentage (applied to Base Salary (as defined below)) is 40% for Life Sales performance, 40% for Annuity Sales performance, and 20% for Company profitability, for an overall par bonus percentage of 100%. The maximum bonus percentage under the Program is 200%. For purposes of the Program, the Base Salary of the Participant is his/her annual base salary for 2022 (prorated for Participants who are not employed by the Company for the entire 2022 performance period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022) as certified by the Committee in its sole discretion.

Base Salary Compensation. You will receive, as a guaranteed base salary for your full-time employment, annual compensation of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) for the Term. Your annual base compensation will be reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee, but in no event shall it be less than $250,000. Your base compensation will be paid in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices as in effect from time to time, but in no event less frequently than monthly.
