Messrs.&nbsp;Munyan, Pietrafitta and Kiesling, the sole performance metric for determining whether, and the extent to which,
such awards will be paid is our achievement of diluted earnings per share (&#147;EPS&#148;) in excess of a minimum &#147;threshold&#148;
level determined by the Human Resources Committee. If the minimum EPS threshold is exceeded, the amount of each award
will depend on the extent to which actual EPS exceeds the minimum level. The Human Resources Committee also
established &#147;target&#148; and &#147;maximum&#148; EPS levels that must be reached in order for awards to be paid at the target and
maximum levels, respectively, reflected in the table. For purposes of determining if, and the extent to which, the EPS
performance goal has been achieved, our EPS for fiscal 2010 will be subject to certain formulaic, non-discretionary
adjustments for acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings, extraordinary items and the cumulative effect of tax or
accounting changes.

level determined by the Human Resources Committee, and (ii)&nbsp;the achievement by the BOC Design Group (the business unit
for which Mr.&nbsp;Shea has responsibility) of operating income in excess of a minimum threshold level determined by the
Human Resources Committee. For purposes of determining if, and the extent to which, the operating income performance
goal has been achieved, the BOC Design Group&#146;s operating income for fiscal 2010 will be subject to certain formulaic,
non-discretionary adjustments for restructurings, extraordinary items and the cumulative effect of tax or accounting
changes. Sixty percent of Mr.&nbsp;Shea&#146;s target award level is based on the operating income metric and forty percent of
such amount is based on the CSS EPS metric.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers;
Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On April 21, 2009, the Human Resources Committee of our Board of Directors determined the performance objectives
that must be met for incentive compensation to be paid to our named executive officers under our Management Incentive
Program ("MIP") with respect to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010. The Human Resource Committee also determined
that the fiscal 2010 target and maximum award levels for each of our named executive officers participating in the MIP
would be as follows:

Name and Title

The performance period for the awards shown in the table is April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010. With respect to
Messrs. Munyan, Pietrafitta and Kiesling, the sole performance metric for determining whether, and the extent to which,
such awards will be paid is our achievement of diluted earnings per share ("EPS") in excess of a minimum "threshold"
level determined by the Human Resources Committee. If the minimum EPS threshold is exceeded, the amount of each award
will depend on the extent to which actual EPS exceeds the minimum level. The Human Resources Committee also
established "target" and "maximum" EPS levels that must be reached in order for awards to be paid at the target and
maximum levels, respectively, reflected in the table. For purposes of determining if, and the extent to which, the EPS
performance goal has been achieved, our EPS for fiscal 2010 will be subject to certain formulaic, non-discretionary
adjustments for acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings, extraordinary items and the cumulative effect of tax or
accounting changes.

With respect to Mr. Shea, there will be two performance metrics for determining whether, and the extent to which,
an award will be paid for fiscal 2010: (i) our achievement of EPS in excess of the aforementioned minimum threshold
level determined by the Human Resources Committee, and (ii) the achievement by the BOC Design Group (the business unit

changes. Sixty percent of Mr. Shea's target award level is based on the operating income metric and forty percent of
such amount is based on the CSS EPS metric.
The amounts payable under the MIP for the fiscal 2010 performance period will not be determined until after the
performance period is completed and achievement of the performance goals is determined. The determination as to
whether these goals have been achieved will be made following the end of the performance period.
