2015 Annual Incentive Bonus Performance Goals

On March 18, 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Universal Health Services, Inc. (the “Committee”) approved specific bonus formulae for the determination of annual incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers pursuant to the Executive Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for the year ending December 31, 2015. Under the formulae approved by the Committee, each of the Company’s executive officers was assigned a percentage of such executive officer’s 2015 base salary as a target bonus based upon corporate performance criteria. The corporate performance criteria target bonus award indicated below for Mr. Alan B. Miller is stipulated in his employment agreement dated July 24, 2013.

The following table shows each executive officer’s corporate performance criteria target bonus as a percentage of his or her base salary for 2015. The 2015 corporate performance criteria target awards for each of the executive officers are unchanged from the 2014 target awards. With respect to Messrs. Alan B. Miller, Marc D. Miller and Steve G. Filton, 100% of their annual incentive bonus for 2015 will be determined using the corporate performance criteria, as described below. With respect to Ms. Osteen and Mr. Pember, their 2015 annual incentive bonus will be determined utilizing: (i) 25% of their annual salary based upon the achievement of the corporate performance criteria, and; (ii) 75% of their annual salary based upon the achievement of the divisional income targets, as described below.

   Target Award  

Alan B. Miller

   Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board      100 %

Marc D. Miller

   President      65 %

Steve G. Filton

   Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer      50 %

Debra K. Osteen

   Senior Vice President      50 %

Marvin G. Pember

   Senior Vice President      50 %

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 adjusted net income per diluted share attributable to UHS (as set forth 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, 2015. The adjusted net income per diluted share attributable to UHS generally excludes, among other things, the impact of the incentive income and incremental expenses incurred in connection with the implementation of electronic health records applications at our acute care hospitals, as well as other amounts that may be nonrecurring or non-operational in nature or amounts that may be reflected in the current year financial statements that relate to prior years.

The divisional income targets consist of the projected aggregate pre-tax income for our Acute Care and Behavioral Health Services segments, net of deductions for the allocation of corporate overhead expenses and a charge for the estimated cost of capital. The divisional income targets generally exclude, among other things, the impact of the incentive income and incremental expenses incurred in connection with the implementation of electronic health records applications at our acute care hospitals, as well as other amounts that may be nonrecurring or non-operational in nature or amounts that may be reflected in the current year financial statements that relate to prior years.


To the extent that the actual divisional results exceeded the targets, Ms. Osteen and Mr. Pember are entitled to 75% of the following (as applied to their annual base salary) as the portion of their annual bonus that is based upon divisional income targets: (i) 25% if actual results meet divisional income targets; (ii) 50% if actual results exceed divisional income targets by 5%; (iii) 75% if actual results exceed divisional income targets by 10%, and; (iv) 100% if actual results exceed divisional income targets by 15%.
