Also on February 24, 2022, the Committee approved an incentive cash bonus plan (the “Plan”) for the calendar year 2022, pursuant to which each eligible executive officer of the Company will receive an incentive award based on the level of attainment of specified Company performance goals. The aggregate amount of the award will be determined based on the level of attainment of a range of non-GAAP earnings per share and revenue for the year. A specified minimum amount of each of the non-GAAP earnings per share and revenue goals must be achieved before payment of an award under the Plan. The actual aggregate amount of the award earned by an executive officer for the calendar year will range from $0 to the maximum amount established for that officer depending on the level of attainment of the performance goals. Assuming the minimum performance goals as described above have been achieved, the minimum, target and maximum bonus payable to each executive officer of the Company (as a percentage of base salary) are as follows:
| Name | Title | Minimum Bonus | Target Bonus | Maximum Bonus | ||||||||||
| Mike Chang | Chief Executive Officer | 20% | 100% | 220% | ||||||||||

| Bing Xue | Executive Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Business Development | 14% | 70% | 143% | ||||||||||
| Wenjun Li | Chief Operating Officer | 14% | 70% | 143% | ||||||||||
Any earned bonus will be paid by March 17, 2023 in cash, common shares of the Company or a combination thereof as determined by the Committee subject to the executive officer’s continued service through the payment date.
The description of the Plan above is only a summary and qualified in its entirety by the Plan, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ending March 31, 2022 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
