VP PERFORMANCE RECOGNITION PROGRAM
• Any pool award generated for the first-half performance period is held in reserve pending the final OP for the year. If, for the year, Actual OP
is below the combined threshold for the two separate performance periods, any pool generated for the first half of the year is forfeited.
There is no maximum accrued award on this component of the Plan. The maximum paid in any year is subject to the Plan funding, maximum and
carryover provisions explained in section V.
The following table illustrates four payment calculation examples for a participant with a CPA target of 10% of pay, a base salary of $225,000, and
a pool of 10% of excess OP:

B. Group Performance Award (GPA)
The GPA depends on Actual Group Operating Profit (OP) versus Planned Group OP. Similar to the CPA, for each half-year performance period a
multiplier is derived based on Actual Group OP vs. Planned Group OP as illustrated in the following graph:
