Executive Compensation
     On March 20, 2008, the Compensation Committee set the base salaries and approved both a performance-based cash and equity bonus programs and a separate discretionary cash bonus program for the Company’s executive officers for fiscal 2008.
     The following table sets forth the 2008 base salary for each of the Company’s executive officers, which was unchanged from 2007:
         
Executive Officer   2008 Base Salary  
Kevin P. Reilly, Jr.
   $ 700,000  
President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman
       
 
Sean E. Reilly
  $ 500,000  
Chief Operating Officer and Vice President
       
 
Keith A. Istre
  $ 450,000  
Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer
        
Under the performance-based bonus programs, each of the Company’s executive officers has an opportunity to earn a cash bonus and an award of unrestricted shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (the “Common Stock”). The amount of cash bonus and the number of unrestricted shares of Common Stock earned by each executive officer will be determined according to formulas set by the Compensation Committee at the meeting. The formulas are based upon levels of the Company’s pro forma net revenue growth and pro forma EBITDA growth in fiscal 2008 over fiscal 2007. Under the formulas, each executive officer may earn up to a maximum of 150% of his target cash bonus and 100% of his target equity award. Any bonus under these programs will be paid and issued when the Compensation Committee certifies (after the close of fiscal 2008) the extent to which the enumerated performance criteria have been satisfied.
The following table sets forth the 2008 target and maximum cash and equity bonuses for each of the Company’s executive officers:
                 
            2008 Target  
    2008 Target     Unrestricted  
Executive Officer   Cash Bonus   Stock Grant
Kevin P. Reilly, Jr.
   $ 400,000 (1)   44,000 shares
President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman
                
 
Sean E. Reilly
   $ 250,000 (2)   44,000 shares
Chief Operating Officer and Vice President
                
 
Keith A. Istre
   $ 250,000 (3)   26,000 shares
Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer
                
 
(1)   Mr. Kevin P. Reilly, Jr. may earn up to 150% of his target bonus, for a total cash bonus opportunity of up to $600,000, upon the attainment of certain performance goals under the bonus program.
 
(2)   Mr. Sean E. Reilly may earn up to 150% of his target bonus, for a total cash bonus opportunity of up to $375,000, upon the attainment of certain performance goals under the bonus program.
 
(3)   Mr. Keith A. Istre may earn up to 150% of his target bonus, for a total cash bonus opportunity of up to $375,000, upon the attainment of certain performance goals under the bonus program.

 

 

In addition the Compensation Committee also instituted a discretionary bonus program for fiscal 2008. Under this program, the Committee may grant an additional cash bonus to any executive officer in an amount up to 30% of such executive officers’ base salary. Such bonus (if any) will be awarded solely at the discretion of the Compensation Committee based on an evaluation of each executive officer’s respective 2008 performance.
