DISCRETIONARY CASH BONUS PLAN FOR SENIOR MANAGEMENT
FOR 2017 ("DISCRETIONARY BONUS PLAN")
Purpose: The purpose of this Discretionary Bonus Plan is to retain and incentivize the Executive Officers of USPH by providing an annual cash bonus opportunity to the Executives to reward them when certain individual and corporate subjective performance measures are achieved.
Participants: Executives of USPH who shall be "Participants" in this Discretionary Bonus Plan are the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and Chief Operating Officer ("COO"). In addition to awards under any other plan or program at USPH for which such Executives are eligible and not in lieu thereof, each Participant in this Discretionary Bonus Plan has the potential to be awarded a "Subjective Bonus" of up to 50% of the Participant's annual base salary for 2017 ("Base") pursuant to the subjective criteria as set forth below.
Effective Date: This Discretionary Bonus Plan is established effective March 24, 2017.
Administration: The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of USPH (the "Compensation Committee") shall administer this Discretionary Bonus Plan, and the Compensation Committee shall have the sole authority to interpret and construe all of the terms of this Discretionary Bonus Plan, establish the criteria for awards, determine the amounts payable under this plan, and grant awards. The amount, if any, of the Subjective Bonus payable to each participant in this Discretionary Bonus Plan shall be determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion based upon subjective criteria described below. All decisions of the Compensation Committee shall be final and binding on all persons.
Payment Date: All amounts payable hereunder shall be paid in cash in a lump sum amount after the Compensation Committee has determined that goals have been met and has calculated the amounts payable hereunder, in the first quarter of 2018 but no later than March 15, 2018. A Subjective Bonus shall be payable only if the Participant remains continuously employed from the Effective Date through the date of the determination of the amount payable by the Compensation Committee.
