Bonus payments to Messers. Stowell, Toney, McCauley and Foerster were paid pursuant to LSI's Fiscal Year 2016 Named Executive Officer Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2016 Incentive Plan"). The 2016 Incentive Plan provides for cash bonus awards to the Company's named executive officers that are driven by the achievement of defined key performance indicators which reflect the Registrant's operating results.  A graduated scale of bonus potential stated as a percentage of base salary is identified  at indicated levels of achievement of key performance indicators. Ten percent of the bonus potential for a named executive officer is discretionary and to be determined by subjective measures. As the 2016 Incentive Plan does not apply Mr. Wells, the Committee determined Mr. Wells' incentive compensation in its discretion and pursuant to his employment agreement.

The Committee also revised the LSI Industries Inc. Short Term Incentive Plan for Named Executive Officers - - FY2017 to also cover the FY2017 incentive for the Company's Chief Executive Officer.  This revised plan is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.
