Section 5 — Corporate Governance and Management

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

On March 22, 2007, we adopted an annual cash bonus plan for Mr. Joseph H. Shaulson, President—Reinforcements.  As previously announced, we are exploring strategic alternatives for the portions of our Reinforcements business unit other than our reinforcements for composites business.  The sole performance measure for Mr. Shaulson’s annual cash bonus award for 2007 is EBITDA of the US Electronics, Ballistics and General Industrial businesses (“EBGI”), which is the remaining portion of the reinforcements business with respect to which we are exploring strategic options.  If the EBGI business is sold during 2007, Mr. Shaulson will be eligible for a pro-rata award based on the year-to-date EBITDA measured against the year-to-date EBITDA in the business plan with an opportunity to earn an enhanced cash bonus award for performance at or above the plan target, but only in the event a sale is consummated.  We set the target level to reflect our internal business plan which contains the same level of EBITDA as is being used in the evaluation of our strategic alternatives.  The target level of EBITDA requires a high level of financial performance, and is therefore challenging, yet achievable.
