(a) Reflects threshold, target and maximum dollar amounts payable under the Executive Incentive Plan for
performance during fiscal 2007, as described in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis— Elements
of Compensation.” The “threshold” refers to the minimum amount payable for a certain level of
performance; “target” refers to the amount payable if specified performance targets are reached; and
“maximum” refers to the maximum payout possible. The actual amounts paid to each executive under
the Executive Incentive Plan for fiscal 2007 were determined by the Compensation Committee in March
2007 and are reflected in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the “Fiscal 2007
Summary Compensation Table.” Mr. Bado’s amounts in “Target and “Maximum” columns both include
fiscal 2007 commissions earned of $155,296; commissions do not have a preset maximum limit. When
Ms. Bartz entered into a new employment agreement in January 2007, she voluntarily agreed to receive
no Executive Incentive Plan award for fiscal 2007 and will not participate in the future.
