The 2008 Plan provides that the Company’s executive officers and certain key employees shall be eligible to receive stock options and shares of restricted stock based upon the achievement of certain specified performance targets related to the Company’s adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”). No equity awards will be granted if the Company’s adjusted EPS for 2008 does not exceed the Company’s adjusted EPS for 2007 by at least 20%. In the event that equity awards are to be granted under the 2008 Plan, the Compensation Committee shall meet with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer on or before March 31, 2009 to determine the allocation of the equity awards to the eligible employees. The foregoing description of the 2008 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2008 Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
