Timing of Performance Award Payments; Continuous Employment

Performance Award, if paid at all, will be paid as soon as administratively practicable after the end of the applicable LTB performance period (i.e. December 31, 201· is the ending performance date of the 201· Performance Period; December 31, 201· is the ending performance date for 201·). Payments should be made on or before March 15 of the calendar year following the applicable performance period, unless administratively impractical to do so. Under no circumstances will a Performance Award payment be made prior to the Company’s issuance of unqualified audited financial statements for the fiscal years applicable to the LTB award and the administrator’s determination that the Performance Criteria has been achieved.
