Consistent with previous years, the amounts of the annual incentive bonuses for Messrs. Alan B. Miller and Filton were derived as a percentage of their annual salaries based on the achievement of corporate performance criteria. The annual incentive bonus for Mr. Marc D. Miller was also derived as a percentage of his annual salary based upon the achievement of the corporate performance criteria to reflect his promotion to President of the Company. Consistent with previous years, the amounts of the annual incentive bonuses for Ms. Osteen and Mr. Marquez were derived as a percentage of their annual salaries based on the achievement of divisional and corporate performance criteria.

2010 Annual Cash Bonus Performance Goals

On March 11, 2010, the Committee approved specific bonus formulae for the determination of annual incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers pursuant to the Plan for the year ending December 31, 2010. Under the formulae approved by the Committee, each of the Company’s executive officers was assigned a percentage of such executive officer’s 2010 base salary as a target bonus. The target bonus award indicated below for Mr. Alan B. Miller is stipulated in his employment agreement dated December 27, 2007. The following table shows each executive officer’s target bonus as a percentage of his or her base salary for 2010. The 2010 target awards for each individual are unchanged from the 2009 target awards.

Pursuant to the Plan and the formulae approved by the Committee, each executive officer will be entitled to receive between 0% and 250% of that executive officer’s target bonus based, either entirely or in part, on the Company’s achievement of a combination of: (i) a specified range of target levels of earnings per share from continuing operations (as defined in our Proxy Statement), and; (ii) a specified range of target levels of return on capital (net income divided by quarterly average net capital) for the year ending December 31, 2010. In addition, with respect to Ms. Osteen and Mr. Marquez, 25% of their annual incentive bonus for 2010 will be determined using the corporate performance criteria described above and the remaining 75% will be determined using divisional performance criteria based on achievement of specified income targets.

As previously announced, Mr. Marc D. Miller was appointed President of the Company in May, 2009. On March 17, 2010, in consideration of the increased responsibilities associated with his duties as President, as well as the fact that Mr. Miller’s salary was not increased at the time of, or subsequent to, his appointment to President, the Committee approved a 15% salary increase to $495,000 per year from $430,000 per year.
