On March 23, 2009, the Compensation and
Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors of The Brink’s Company (the
“Company”) adopted the 2009 performance measures for the executive officers
under the Company’s Management Performance Improvement Plan. In order
for the executive officers to be deemed to have met their goals, the aggregate
three-year performance measures require Brink’s, Incorporated to achieve
specific thresholds for revenue, operating profit, and economic value added, and
for the Company to achieve an earnings per share target. The earnings
per share target was assigned a 33.34% weighting and the three performance goals
for Brink’s, Incorporated were collectively assigned a 66.66%
weighting. Performance award targets for the 2009-2011 Performance
Measurement Period were set as follows: Michael T. Dan, Chairman of the Board,
President and Chief Executive Officer, $1,000,000; Michael J. Cazer, Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer, $200,000; Frank T. Lennon, Vice President
and Chief Administrative Officer, $170,000; McAlister C. Marshall, II, Vice
President, General Counsel and Secretary, $130,000; and Matthew A.P. Schumacher,
Controller, $60,000. Actual awards can range from 0% to 200% of the
target depending on performance against the pre-established
measures.
