Awards under the new Incentive Plan, ranging from 15% to 55% of base salary for each of the Chairman and CEO, 11.25% to 41.3% of the base salary of the COO and 7.5% to 27.5% of the base salary of the CFO, will be based on actual earnings before interest and taxes in relation to a target amount.  The target amount was established as a set percentage of an amount based on 110% of the Company's prior year revenue.
