You will be eligible to receive an annual incentive payment under the Management Incentive Compensation Plan (the “MICP”). The amount of your short-term incentive target is ___________. The actual incentive you earn may be higher or lower depending on business results and your individual performance, subject to a cap equal to __________ and the terms and conditions of the MICP. Your short-term incentive target and the cap will be prorated for the time you are actively employed by the Company.

The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) has overall responsibility for evaluating the final results under the MICP, determining the amount of the final payout of your award, and has the sole discretion to adjust awards, upward or downward, based on its evaluation of the quality of results in any year and your individual performance up until the time an award is determined and paid. Your MICP award is contingent upon approval by the Compensation Committee and is not earned or vested until it is paid.

You must be employed by the Company in good standing on the payment date to earn and receive an MICP award. In the event your employment with the Company terminates for any reason other than death before the MICP award is paid, including due to your voluntary termination, the MICP award will not be earned or vested, and you will have no right to receive, and the Company will have no obligation to pay to you, your MICP award. Your MICP award will be prorated for the time you were actively employed by the Company in the event your employment relationship with the Company ends as a result of your death. Your MICP award, if any, will be paid on or before March 15 of the subsequent calendar year.

Employee Benefits

You will be eligible for the Company’s market-based employee benefits (health, dental, life, short-term disability, long-term disability, and 401(k)) as described on Arrow Benefits (http://benefits.arrow.com). For most benefits, coverage begins on the first day of the month following one (1) calendar month of active service. You have thirty-one (31) days from your hire date to make your benefit elections. In addition, you may participate in additional programs provided to the executive management team (the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, the Management Insurance Program, and the Executive Health Program). Please refer to the applicable plan documents for information about eligibility and coverage.
