Target Bonus contract clause examples

Target Bonus. Executive will be eligible for an annual target bonus (the “Target Bonus”) in an amount equal to 100% of Executive’s then-current annual Base Salary, subject to the terms and conditions of the Company Incentive Plan (“CIP”) in effect for each applicable fiscal year. The CIP for the Company’s 2023 fiscal year provides for semi-annual payments, with 40% of the Target Bonus payable for the performance period of February 1st through July 31st (the “First Half”, and such bonus, the “First Half Bonus”) and 60% of the Target Bonus payable for the performance period of August 1st through January 31st (the “Second Half”, and such bonus, the “Second Half Bonus”), with the actual bonus amounts awarded to Executive (the “Actual Bonuses”) to be earned upon achievement of performance objectives to be established by the Board for such performance periods. For the Company’s 2023 fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible for the Second Half Bonus (i.e., $600,000 at “target”), with the Actual Bonus payable with respect thereto prorated based upon the number of days Executive is employed as CEO during the Second Half. To receive payment of any Actual Bonus, Executive must be employed by the Company on the last day of the period to which such bonus relates and at the time bonuses are paid, except as set forth below in Section 7.

Target Bonus. Employee will be offered the opportunity to participate in the Company’s then-current bonus plan. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan and this Section, upon achievement of all bonus-related goals and objectives set by the Board of Directors and/or the Chief Executive Officer for the Company and for Employee (the “Bonus Objectives”), Employee shall receive a cash bonus equal to or greater than $300,000 (“Target Bonus”), less standard payroll deductions and withholding as are applicable to similarly situated employees. The Company shall have the sole discretion to # change or eliminate bonus plans or programs at any time (provided, however, that after the bonus plan and Target Bonus objectives have been established by the Board and/or the Chief Executive Officer for a given year, neither the Board nor the Chief Executive Officer shall later materially change the bonus plan or Bonus Objectives for such year to Employee’s detriment without Employee’s consent), # determine whether the Bonus Objectives for a given year have been achieved, and # determine (in accordance with this Section and such Bonus Objectives and bonus plan) the amount of bonus earned by Employee, if any. Bonuses are intended to retain valuable Company employees, and if Employee is not employed for any reason on the last day of the bonus year, he will not have earned the bonus and, except as expressly provided herein with respect to the Severance Bonus, no partial or pro-rata bonus will be paid. Any bonus paid pursuant to this Section 4 shall be paid net of standard payroll deductions and withholdings. The target payment date for any bonus measured on the basis of a calendar year shall be between January 1 and April 15 of the calendar year following the end of the performance period; provided, however, that such bonus shall be paid no later than April 15 of such calendar year following the end of the performance period.

Target Annual Bonus. The Participant’s target bonus under the Company’s annual incentive plans for the fiscal year in which such Participant’s Date of Termination occurs (or, if no target bonus has been set for such fiscal year, the Participant’s target bonus for the immediately preceding fiscal year).

Participant’s Bonus Target. The Bonus target is based upon salary at the end of the Plan Year, multiplied by the Participant’s Bonus target percentage. Bonus target percentages for the Executive Leadership Team (“ELT”) applicable to a specified Plan Year are included in [Appendix A], unless modified as provided below. If there are no Bonus target percentage or position-related salary changes during the year, the Participant’s Bonus target shall be the dollar amount resulting from multiplying the Participant’s salary at the end of the Plan Year by the Bonus target percentage determined. After an ELT Participant’s Bonus target has been established for a particular Plan Year, it cannot be changed, except that, in the sole discretion of the Committee or its delegate an ELT Participant’s Bonus target can be adjusted if the Participant’s position is changed during such Plan Year and/or a Compensation Committee approved adjustment throughout the year. Non-ELT Participants Bonus targets may change throughout the Plan Year, subject to normal salary and compensation adjustment procedures and approvals. Changes to salary levels and/or Bonus targets for any Participant will result in a prorated Bonus calculation, taking into account the portion of the Plan Year spent at each salary and Bonus target combination.

Pro Rata Target Bonus. At the same time (and subject to the same conditions) that an Eligible Executive receives a cash severance payment under [Section 3(a)], the Eligible Executive shall also receive a cash severance payment in an amount equal to a pro rata portion of the Eligible Executive’s target annual incentive award for the year of termination of employment (with such pro rata portion being the portion of the calendar year of termination that has been completed when the Eligible Executive’s employment is terminated).

Target Number. The target number of Performance RSUs subject to this Award is (the “Target Number”). The Target Number will be divided into three (3) equal tranches, with any fractional Performance RSUs resulting from such division to be added to the final tranche so that the sum of the three tranches equals the Target Number (each, an “Award Tranche”).

Target Bonuses. Opportunities for bonuses under the Plan for each Covered Executive for any Performance Period will be established by the Compensation Committee and communicated to each Covered Executive in writing. For each Covered Executive, the Compensation Committee will have the authority to apportion the target bonus so that a portion of the target bonus will be tied to attainment of the applicable performance goal(s).

Target Award. The Target Award for each Target is set forth below

Target Exclusivity. Legacy shall notify Primary immediately upon the occurrence of the Target Exclusivity Expiration Date (as defined below). Primary covenants and agrees that until the earliest of # the date six (6) years following the end of the Research Term, # termination of the Existing Ag Agreement, or # the date on which Ag Partner ceases using Commercially Reasonable Efforts to develop and commercialize Ag Partner Royalty Products incorporating any Licensed VDCs or CDCs targeting, in either case, the Target (the earliest of (i), (ii), or (iii), the “Target Exclusivity Expiration Date”), neither Primary nor any Affiliate thereof shall enter into any agreement or arrangement in the Legacy Field with a Third Party for the identification or generation of Metalloprotein Inhibitors intended to target the Target, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.5 shall not prohibit # any Primary Acquiring Entity or any Affiliate thereof from entering into any agreement or arrangement in the Legacy Field for the identification or generation of Metalloprotein Inhibitors intended to target the Target using Know-How or subject matter claimed in Patent Rights other than that included in Metallophile™ Technology prior to the date of the transaction by which such Primary Acquiring Entity first became a Primary Acquiring Entity or # Primary or any Affiliate thereof from entering into any agreement or arrangement in the Legacy Field with a Third Party for the identification or generation of Metalloprotein Inhibitors intended to target the Target using any Primary Acquiring Entity Know-How or subject matter claimed in Primary Acquiring Entity Patents, except to the extent such Primary Acquiring Entity Know-How or Primary Acquiring Entity Patents were already included within the Metallophile™ Technology prior to the date of the transaction by which such Primary Acquiring Entity first became an Primary Acquiring Entity. For purposes of clarification but not limitation, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Primary or any Affiliate thereof from entering into collaboration, licensing or other agreements with any Third Party(ies) # outside the Legacy Field concerning the identification, development, or commercialization of compounds directed against any receptor, protein, peptide, or other biological or chemical entity (including but not limited to the Target) or # inside the Legacy Field concerning the identification, development, or commercialization of compounds directed against any receptor, protein, peptide, or other biological or chemical entity other than the Target.
