Item 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

(e) On March 1, 2010, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors adopted 2010 bonus programs for our executive officers. The potential bonus of each executive officer is equal to the executive officer’s 2010 base salary (as of January 1, 2010) multiplied by a certain percentage. The percentage that will be used to calculate the bonus will depend on our earnings per share for the year ending December 31, 2010. The earnings per share target range for the 2010 bonus programs is $0.97 (at which the minimum bonus would be earned) to $1.03 (at which the maximum bonus would be earned). The following table sets forth the range of percentages of base salary that may be paid under the 2010 bonus programs to each of our named executive officers. The actual amount paid, if any, will depend on our actual earnings per share.
