The bookings performance measure consists of monthly recurring bookings revenue based on committed or contracted levels in our customer agreements, with an exclusion for one-time services. The adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue performance measure ("EBITDA performance measure") consists of the ratio determined by dividing the Company's adjusted EBITDA by the Company's revenue calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. To determine adjusted EBITDA, the Company adjusts net loss for such things as interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related costs, amortization of technology and intangibles, and unoccupied lease charges. The 2018 Bonus Plan provides that the bookings and EBITDA performance measures are to be measured against bookings and adjusted EBITDA performance measure targets based on the 2018 annual budget approved by the Company's board of directors.
Potential payouts under the 2018 Bonus Plan with respect to the bookings and EBITDA performance measures are to be based on performance within a range of each performance measure's target. No incentive payment may be earned for performance below the target minimum and the maximum bonus may be earned for performance at or above the target maximum. The range and target for each performance measure are set forth in the following table:
