U.S. PHYSICAL THERAPY, INC. (“USPH”
DISCRETIONARY CASH/RSA BONUS PLAN FOR SENIOR MANAGEMENT
FOR 2018 (“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 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"), Chief Operating Officer West ("COO West"), and Chief Operating Officer East ("COO East"). 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 2018 ("Base") pursuant to the subjective criteria as set forth below. The Subjective Bonus shall be made as either a "Cash Bonus" Award or a Restricted Stock Award ("RSA"), as determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of USPH (the "Compensation Committee").  The Compensation Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine the amount and type of award (whether a Cash Bonus Award or an RSA) will be made.  No Participant shall be entitled to a Subjective Bonus and shall have no legally binding right to a Subjective Bonus until the Compensation Committee determines the amount and type of award to be made.  No Participant will be entitled to elect any type of award to be made.


Effective Date:  This Discretionary Bonus Plan is established effective April 9, 2018.

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.

Award and Payment DateThe Compensation Committee shall make award determinations in the first quarter of 2019.  After the Compensation Committee has determined that goals have been met and has calculated the awards to be made hereunder, the Cash Bonus Award shall be paid, and the RSA shall be granted to the applicable Participant in the first quarter of 2019 but no later than March 15, 2019. 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.
