Determination of 2011 Base Salaries and Cash Bonuses for Named Executive Officers
Effective March 1, 2011, the compensation committee of our board of directors approved the
2011 base salaries and 2011 cash bonus program for our named executive officers, Mark A. DiBlasi,
Peter R. Armbruster, Scott L. Dobak, and Brian J. van Helden. The 2011 base salary increases will
be payable effective as of March 1, 2011. For 2011, the compensation committee adopted an annual
cash bonus program for our named executive officers that will be based on a company-wide EBITDA
(earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) goal that is consistent with our
board-approved 2011 budget. Actual cash bonus payouts for 2011 performance will be determined by
our compensation committee or board of directors and paid in early 2012, and may be above or below
target bonus levels.
The table below lists the 2011 base salaries and cash bonus levels for each of our named
executive officers.

Grants of Restricted Stock Units
Effective March 1, 2011, the compensation committee of our board of directors also approved
the grant to our named executive officers of time vest restricted stock units (RSUs) based on
relevant compensation survey data and discussions with our third-party compensation consultant,
Compensia, Inc. Our named executive officers were granted a specified dollar value of RSUs, with
the specific number of RSUs calculated using the 20-day trailing average closing sales price for
our common stock as of the grant date. Messrs. DiBlasi, Armbruster, Dobak, and van Helden received
$220,000, $90,000, $100,000, and $90,000 of time-vest RSUs, respectively. Based upon the 20-day
trailing average closing sales price for our common stock as of the grant date of $13.96, Messrs.
DiBlasi, Armbruster, Dobak, and van Helden received 15,759, 6,447, 7,163, and 6,447 RSUs,
respectively.
Each RSU is equal in value to one share of our common stock, and the RSUs vest 25% each year
over four years. Recipients of RSU awards generally must remain employed by us on a continuous
basis through the end of the relevant vesting period in order to receive any amount of the RSUs
covered by that award, except that recipients may be entitled to accelerated delivery of a portion
of unvested RSUs in the case of the recipients death or disability, or upon a change in control.
The foregoing is a summary only and does not purport to be a complete description of all of
the terms contained in the form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, and is subject to and qualified
in its entirety by reference to the form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement attached hereto as
Exhibit 10.20 and incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
2010 Executive Cash Bonus
Effective March 1, 2011, the compensation committee of our board of directors also approved a
discretionary cash bonus payable to our named executive officers equal to approximately 10% of each
officers base salary. In making its determination, the compensation committee took into
consideration our
companys 2010 EBITDA, the lack of bonus paid to management in recent years, and the
importance of our named executive officers to our overall success. Messrs. DiBlasi, Armbruster,
Dobak, and van Helden received discretionary cash bonuses equal to $34,540, $22,080, $30,992, and
$21,477, respectively.

Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
Effective March 1, 2011, the compensation committee of our board of directors also approved
grants of RSUs to our independent directors. The RSU grants are part of our previously disclosed
plan to make equity-based awards to our independent directors in order to adjust director
compensation levels to those customary for boards of directors for similarly situated companies.
Effective March 1, 2011, we granted $30,000 of RSUs to each of our independent directors. Based
upon the 20-day trailing average closing sales price for our common stock as of the grant date of
$13.96, each of our independent directors received 2,149 RSUs.
Each RSU is equal in value to one share of our common stock, and the RSUs vest 25% each year
over four years. Each director receiving RSU awards generally must remain a member of our board of
directors through the end of the relevant vesting period in order to receive any amount of the RSUs
covered by that award, except that recipients may be entitled to accelerated delivery of a portion
of unvested RSUs in the case of the recipients death or disability, or upon a change in control.
The foregoing is a summary only and does not purport to be a complete description of all of
the terms contained in the form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, and is subject to and qualified
