IC Bonus: 30% target (0-60% range); based on attainment of LaJobi EBITDA target or other factors determined by Compensation Committee of the Board; to be eligible for bonus, you must be actively employed in good standing at the time of payment (typically March for prior fiscal year).

Bonus Guarantee: For 2014 only, the bonus referenced in IC bonus above will be guaranteed at a minimum bonus of $25,000 (paid March 2015).

You will also be considered for future grants of equity at a level commensurate with your position, in the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
