(the “Company”) approved cash bonus payments for 2012 to be paid to the Company’s named executive officers (as defined in Item 402(a)(3) of Regulation S-K).

The amount of a bonus for a named executive officer that will ultimately be paid for performance in 2013 will be based on the Compensation Committee’s evaluation, in its sole discretion, of the Company’s Financial Performance Indicators, other factors the Compensation Committee deems relevant and that named executive officer’s performance in 2013. The target bonuses for the named executive officers for 2013, expressed as a percentage of each named executive officer’s annual base salary, are set forth on Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
