Rate-limiting on Cat6K (off topic)

I am trying to rate-limit a connection on a Cat6K FastEthernet port.
I want 1MB bandwidth burstable to 10MB. I looked at the Cisco website and I
think the following would do the trick:

rate-limit input 1000000 1250000 1250000 conform-action transmit
exceed-action drop
rate-limit output 1000000 1250000 1250000 conform-action transmit
exceed-action drop

Is this correct? I'm still having trouble understanding why 2 burst rates
(normal and maximum) need to be specified.

Thanks in advance for any input.
