A portion of the bonus achievement criteria are at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Achievement of target and maximum levels would result in bonus payments as a percentage of base salary (pro rated for Mr. Henock’s 2007 service time) at target of 50%, with a maximum of 100%.  Mr. Henock will also participate in the Proliance Executive Severance Plan, which provides for up to one year of severance under certain circumstances.
