This bonus is capped at 3640 days or about 10 years.
In order to properly reward stakers who have staked longer than that time the cap has been removed.
If you have a stake that is longer than 3640 days you will see that your Recalculated shares are higher than your native one from hex.
How exactly is the payout minted if I already minted the Start Bonus for my stake?
If you have already minted the Start Bonus for your stake then your End Bonus will simply give you the rest of your stakes available payout as Communis.
