In connection with his promotion, Mr. Pescara’s annual base salary will be increased to $433,628 and it is expected that the compensation committee will grant him an equity award, consisting of 75% options and 25% restricted stock, with a total cumulative value of $300,000. This equity award is expected to have a ratable, four year vesting period. Mr. Pescara will remain eligible to participate in the Registrant’s incentive plans and, pursuant to the Registrant’s annual bonus plan, will continue to have a target payout of 60% of his annual base salary with an opportunity to earn a maximum of 200% of this target payout.
