CHASE CORPORATION

ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN

 

Fiscal Year 2015

 

The Company, in addition to salary and benefits provides further cash compensation to key employees based on achieving preset annual goals.

 

The plan is maintained and paid at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and may be modified or suspended at any time by the board.

 

Upon approval by the Board of Directors, the CFO will administer the plan.

 

It is the intent of the Board of Directors to exclude the effect of unusual events and expenses from the calculation.  The Compensation and Management Development Committee is given the authority by the Board to use its discretion in determining relevant exclusions.

 

Targets, awards, opportunities and associated performance award methodology and eligibility requirements will be established by the Compensation and Management Development Committee for the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer and approved by the Board of Directors.  For senior management, the CEO will make recommendations to be approved by the Compensation and Management Development Committee.  For all other employees the CEO will be the approval authority.  See schedule below for award opportunities for the executive officers:

 

Budgeted EBITDA is the target.  Payment threshold is 90% which yields 50% of individual award opportunity.  From 90% to 100% performance — award increases proportionately between 50% and 100%.  Between 100% and 120% of target award is proportionate between 100% and 200%.

Payment is made in cash no later than 75 days from the close of the fiscal year.
