Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

  

 (e) On March 8, 2012 the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) established 2012 cash bonus targets for the Company’s executive officers for 2012 expressed as a percentage of base salaries to be in effect on April 1, 2012. The bonus target percentages and base salaries are, respectively, 60% and $500,000 for Jack Abuhoff, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer; 50% and $280,000 for Ashok Mishra, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer; and 40% and $280,000 for O’Neil Nalavadi, the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Actual bonus amounts will vary from the target percentages to the extent that goals to be established by the Compensation Committee are exceeded or are not achieved in full.

 

On the same date the Compensation Committee established a special bonus plan for its executive officers whereby each of the executive officers will be eligible to receive a cash bonus payable upon the Company’s achieving a specified aggregate level of bookings in its new business lines during calendar year 2012. The bonus amounts that the executive officers are eligible to receive are $52,000 for Mr. Abuhoff and $25,000 for each of Mr. Mishra and Mr. Nalavadi.

 

Reference is made to the Company’s report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on April 18, 2011 (the “Prior 8-K”). In the Prior 8-K the Company reported, among other things, that “To the extent that actual performance exceeds the target for any performance measure, the bonus payment for that measure will increase to a maximum of twice the bonus target.” This report on Form 8-K amends the quoted sentence to read as follows “To the extent that actual performance exceeds the targets for the performance measures, the bonus payment will increase to a maximum of 2.85 times the bonus target.”
