If the annual “Target Payroll” is exceeded in any given year, the annual incentive payment would increase based on the formula above. If the annual “Target Payroll” is missed in any particular year, no payment is made for that year; but does not preclude the company from receiving payments in other remaining year. (Ord. 32-23.
