Fiscal 2019 Compensation and Bonus Plans

On May 23, 2018, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of SeaChange International, Inc. (“SeaChange”) established the fiscal year 2019 short-term incentive bonus plans (the “2019 Plans”) for Edward Terino, Peter Faubert, Jonathan Rider and David McEvoy, each a named executive officer of SeaChange.

The below-described 2019 Plans were established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of SeaChange after giving consideration to compensation practices of SeaChange’s peer companies, and commentary regarding executive compensation trends and practices, including that published by Institutional Shareholder Services.

Under the 2019 Plans, Mr. Terino will be eligible to receive a target bonus of 90% of his base salary, Mr. Rider will be eligible to receive a target bonus of 80% of his base salary, Mr. Faubert will be eligible to receive a target bonus of 60% of his base salary and Mr. McEvoy will be eligible to receive a target bonus of 50% of his base salary.

The bonuses are payable in cash and are earned based on SeaChange achieving certain overall company financial objectives for fiscal 2019 related to Total Revenue and Non-GAAP Operating Income and based on individualized performance-based objectives.

The bonuses are determined upon conclusion of SeaChange’s 2019 fiscal year.

The 2019 Plans provide that the Compensation Committee has the discretion to determine the amount paid under the 2019 Plans, whether or not the criteria are satisfied. The 2019 Plans also provide that the amount payable may be adjusted upward or downward in predetermined amounts if actual performance exceeds or is below the target financial criteria, with a specified maximum upward adjustment of fifty percent above target based upon each of Non-GAAP Operating Income and Total Revenue.
