Employer in performing the duties hereunder, payable in accordance with Employer's customary practices. Employee is eligible for consideration for a discretionary raise and/or promotion by Employer in
its sole and absolute discretion. Employee shall be entitled to an annual bonus ("Bonus") determined pursuant to Employer's Annual Performance-Based Incentive Plan for Executive Officers, or any
successor plan (the "Bonus Plan"), with Employee's
participation to be determined on a pro rata basis to the extent the termination date of this Agreement does not coincide with the end of a fiscal year of Employer (such Bonus shall be paid at such

approval of the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of Employer. Subject to the above-referenced discretion of the Executive Committee, it is understood that Employee may continue to serve
