Shares available for grant to Participants under this Plan (the “Share
Authorization”) shall be an amount equal to fourteen million seven hundred fifty
thousand (14,750,000) Shares minus the number of Shares relating to any award
granted and outstanding as of or subsequent to the Effective Date under any
other equity compensation plan of the Company, unless the Shares used to satisfy
such award are Shares repurchased from the open market.
(b)    Subject to the limit set forth in Section 4.1(a) on the number of Shares
that may be granted in the aggregate under this Plan, the maximum number of
Shares that may be available for grant pursuant to ISOs shall be four million
(4,000,000).
4.2    Share Usage. Shares covered by an Award shall only be counted as used to
the extent they are actually issued or otherwise delivered. Any Shares related
to Awards (other than a Substitute Award) which terminate by expiration,
forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise without the issuance or other delivery of
such Shares, are settled in cash in lieu of Shares or are exchanged with the
Committee’s permission, prior to the issuance or other delivery of Shares, for
Awards not involving Shares, shall be available again for grant under this Plan.
Moreover, other than with respect to a Substitute Award, if the Exercise Price
of any Option or the tax withholding requirements with respect to any Award are
satisfied by tendering Shares to the Company (by either actual delivery or by
attestation), or if a SAR is exercised, only the number of Shares issued or
otherwise delivered, net of the Shares tendered, if any, will be deemed “used”
for purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares available for delivery
under this Plan The Shares available under this Plan may be authorized and
unissued Shares or treasury Shares.
4.3    Annual Award Limits. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 4.4, no individual Participant may receive
awards in any Plan Year that relate to more than five hundred thousand (500,000)
Shares. Subject to Section 12.1, in the case of an Award which is not valued in
a way in which the limitation set forth in the preceding sentence would operate
as an effective limitation satisfying applicable law, any individual Participant
may not be granted Awards authorizing the earning during any Plan Year of an
amount that exceeds such Participant’s annual limit, which for this purpose
shall be equal to five million dollars ($5,000,000) plus the amount of such
Participant’s unused annual limit as of the close of the previous Plan Year
(this limitation is separate and not affected by the number of Awards granted
during such Plan Year subject to the limitation in the preceding sentence). For
purposes of the Plan, (i) “earning” means satisfying performance conditions so
that an amount becomes payable, without regard to whether it is to be paid
currently or on a deferred basis or continues to be subject to any service
requirement or other nonperformance condition, and (ii) a Participant’s annual
limit

Page 6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

is “used” to the extent an amount or number of Shares may be potentially earned
or paid under an Award, regardless of whether such amount or Shares are in fact
earned or paid.
4.4    Adjustments in Authorized Shares. In the event of any corporate event or
transaction (including a change in the Shares of the Company or the
capitalization of the Company) such as a merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization, separation, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split,
split up, spin-off or other distribution of stock or property of the Company,
combination of Shares, exchange of Shares, dividend in kind or other like change
in capital structure or distribution (other than normal cash dividends) to
stockholders of the Company, or any similar corporate event or transaction, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement
of Participants’ rights under this Plan, shall substitute or adjust, as
applicable, the number and kind of Shares that may be issued or otherwise
delivered under this Plan or under particular forms of Awards, the number and
kind of Shares subject to outstanding Awards, the Exercise Price or Grant Price
applicable to outstanding Awards, the Annual Award Limits and other value
determinations applicable to outstanding Awards.
The Committee, in its sole discretion, may also make appropriate adjustments in
the terms of any Awards under this Plan to reflect or related to such changes or
distributions and to modify any other terms of outstanding Awards, including
modifications of performance goals and changes in the length of Performance
Periods. The determination of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if
any, shall be conclusive and binding on Participants under this Plan.
Subject to the provisions of Article 19, without affecting the number of Shares
available under this Plan, the Committee may authorize the issuance or
assumption of benefits under this Plan in connection with any merger,
consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization upon such
terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate, subject to compliance with any
applicable accounting rules or the “incentive stock option” rules under Section
422 of the Code, where applicable.
Article 5. Eligibility and Participation
5.1    Eligibility. Individuals eligible to participate in this Plan include all
Employees, Directors and Service Providers.
5.2    Actual Participation. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the
Committee may, from time to time, select from all eligible individuals, those

discretion, the nature of, any and all terms permissible by law, and the amount
of each Award.
Article 6. Stock Options
6.1    Grant of Options. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, Options may be
granted to Participants in such number, and upon such terms, and at any time and
from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion; provided that ISOs may be granted only to eligible Employees of the
Company or of any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation (as permitted by
Section 422 of the Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder).
6.2    Award Document. Each Option grant shall be evidenced by an Award Document
that shall specify the Exercise Price, the maximum duration of the Option, the
number of Shares to which the Option pertains, the conditions upon which an
Option shall become vested and exercisable and such other provisions as the
Committee shall determine which are not inconsistent with the terms of this
Plan. The Award Document also shall specify whether the Option is intended to be
an ISO or a NQSO.
6.3    Exercise Price. The Exercise Price for each grant of an Option shall be
as determined by the Committee and shall be specified in the Award Document. The
Exercise Price shall be: (i) based on one hundred percent (100%) of the FMV of
the Shares on the date of grant, (ii) set at a premium to the FMV of the Shares
on the date of grant or (iii) indexed to the FMV of the Shares on the date of
grant, with the

Page 7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

index determined by the Committee, in its discretion; provided, however, other
than with respect to Substitute Awards, the Exercise Price on the date of grant
must be at least equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the FMV of the Shares on
the date of grant.
6.4    Term. Each Option shall expire at such time as the Committee shall
determine at the time of its grant; provided, however, no Option shall be
exercisable later than the tenth (10th) anniversary date of its grant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for Options granted to Participants outside the
United States, the Committee has the authority to grant Options that have a term
greater than ten (10) years.
6.5    Exercise of Options. Options shall be exercisable at such times and be
subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall in each instance
approve, which terms and conditions need not be the same for each grant or for
each Participant.
6.6    Payment. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a notice of
exercise to the Company or an agent designated by the Company in a form
specified or accepted by the Committee, or by complying with any alternative
procedures which may be authorized by the Committee, setting forth the number of
Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full
payment for the Shares.
A condition of the issuance or other delivery of the Shares as to which an
Option shall be exercised shall be the payment of the Exercise Price. The
Exercise Price of any Option shall be payable to the Company in full either:
(a) in cash or its equivalent; (b) by tendering (either by actual delivery or
attestation) previously acquired Shares having an aggregate FMV at the time of
exercise equal to the Exercise Price (provided that except as otherwise
determined by the Committee, the Shares that are tendered must have been held by
the Participant for at least six (6) months prior to their tender to satisfy the
Exercise Price or have been purchased on the open market); (c) by a combination
of (a) and (b); or (d) any other method approved or accepted by the Committee in
its sole discretion, including, if the Committee so determines, a cashless
(broker-assisted) exercise.
Subject to any governing rules or regulations, as soon as practicable after
receipt of written notification of exercise and full payment (including
satisfaction of any applicable tax withholding), the Company shall deliver to
the Participant evidence of book entry Shares, or upon the Participant’s
request, Share certificates in an appropriate amount based upon the number of
Shares purchased under the Option(s).

methods indicated above shall be paid in United States dollars.

restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option as it

restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, the requirements of any
stock exchange or market upon which Shares are then listed and/or traded or any
Blue Sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.
6.8    Termination of Employment. Each Participant’s Award Document shall set
forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise the
Option following termination of the Participant’s employment or provision of
services to the Company and/or its Affiliates, as the case may be. Such
provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and need
not be uniform among all Options, and may reflect distinctions based on the
reasons for termination.
6.9    Transferability.
(a)    ISOs. No ISO may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise
alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution. Further, all ISOs granted to a Participant shall be exercisable

or Committee may permit further transferability, on a general or a specific
basis, and may impose conditions and limitations on any permitted
transferability. Further, except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award
Document or otherwise determined at any time by the Committee, or unless the
Board or Committee decides to permit further transferability, all NQSOs granted
to a Participant shall be exercisable during his lifetime only by such
Participant. With respect to those NQSOs, if any, that are permitted to be
transferred to another individual, references in this Plan to exercise or
payment of the Exercise Price by the Participant shall be deemed to include, as
determined by the Committee, the Participant’s permitted transferee.

disposition within ten (10) days thereof.
6.11.    Substituting SARs. Only in the event the Company is not accounting for
equity compensation under APB Opinion No. 25, the Committee shall have the
ability to substitute, without receiving Participant permission, SARs paid only
in Shares (or SARs paid in Shares or cash at the Committee’s discretion) for
outstanding Options; provided, the terms of the substituted stock SARs are the
same as the terms for the Options and the aggregate difference between the FMV
of the underlying Shares and the Grant Price of the SARs is equivalent to the
aggregate difference between the FMV of the underlying Shares and the Exercise
Price of the Options. If, in the opinion of the Company’s auditors, this
provision creates adverse accounting consequences for the Company, it shall be
considered null and void.
Article 7. SARs
7.1    Grant of SARs. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, SARs may be
granted to Participants at any time and from time to time as shall be determined
by the Committee. The Committee may grant Freestanding SARs, Tandem SARs or any
combination of these forms of SARs.
Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall have complete
discretion in determining the number of SARs granted to each Participant and,
consistent with the provisions of this Plan, in determining the terms and
conditions pertaining to such SARs.
The Grant Price for each grant of a Freestanding SAR shall be determined by the
Committee and shall be specified in the Award Document. The Grant Price shall
be: (i) based on one hundred percent (100%) of the FMV of the Shares on the date
of grant, (ii) set at a premium to the FMV of the Shares on the date of grant,
or (iii) indexed to the FMV of the Shares on the date of grant, with the index
determined by the Committee, in its discretion; provided, however, other than
with respect to Substitute Awards, the Grant Price on the date of grant must be
at least equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the FMV of the Shares on the
date of grant. The Grant Price of Tandem SARs shall be equal to the Exercise
Price of the related Option.
7.2    Award Document. Each SAR shall be evidenced by an Award Document that
shall specify the Grant Price, the term of the SAR and such other provisions as
the Committee shall determine.
7.3    Term. The term of a SAR shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, and except as determined otherwise by the Committee and specified in
the Award Document, no SAR shall be exercisable later than the tenth (10th)
anniversary date of its grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for

Page 9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SARs granted to Participants outside the United States, the Committee has the
authority to grant SARs that have a term greater than ten (10) years.
7.4    Exercise of Freestanding SARs. Freestanding SARs may be exercised upon
whatever terms and conditions the Committee, in its sole discretion, imposes.
7.5.    Exercise of Tandem SARs. Tandem SARs may be exercised for all or part of
the Shares subject to the related Option upon the surrender of the right to
exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option. A Tandem SAR may be
exercised only with respect to the Shares for which its related Option is then
exercisable.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, with respect
to a Tandem SAR granted in connection with an ISO: (a) the Tandem SAR will
expire no later than the expiration of the underlying ISO; (b) the value of the
payout with respect to the Tandem SAR may be for no more than one hundred
percent (100%) of the excess of the FMV of the Shares subject to the underlying
ISO at the time the Tandem SAR is exercised over the Exercise Price of the
underlying ISO; and (c) the Tandem SAR may be exercised only when the FMV of the
Shares subject to the ISO exceeds the Exercise Price of the ISO.
7.6    Settlement. Upon the exercise of an SAR, a Participant shall be entitled
to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:
(a)    The excess of the FMV of a Share on the date of exercise over the Grant
Price; by
(b)    The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.
At the discretion of the Committee, the payment upon exercise may be in cash,
Shares or any combination thereof, or in any other manner approved by the
Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee’s determination regarding the
form of settlement shall be set forth in the Award Document pertaining to the
grant of the SAR.
7.7    Termination of Employment. Each Award Document shall set forth the extent
to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise the SAR following
termination of the Participant’s employment with or provision of services to the
Company and/or its Affiliates, as the case may be. Such provisions shall be
determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and need not be uniform among
all SARs, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination.
7.8    Transferability. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award
Document or otherwise determined at any time by the Committee, no SAR may be
sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, except
as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award Document or otherwise determined
at any time by the Committee, all SARs granted to a Participant shall be
exercisable during his lifetime only by such Participant. With respect to those
SARs, if any, that are permitted to be transferred to another individual,
references in this Plan to exercise of the SAR by the Participant or payment of
any amount to the Participant shall be deemed to include, as determined by the
Committee, the Participant’s permitted transferee.
7.9    Other Restrictions. The Committee shall impose such other conditions
and/or restrictions on any Shares received upon exercise of a SAR as it may deem
advisable or desirable. These restrictions may include, but shall not be limited
to, a requirement that the Participant hold the Shares received upon exercise of
a SAR for a specified period of time.
Article 8. Restricted Stock and RSUs

Page 10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8.1    Grant of Restricted Stock or RSUs. Subject to the provisions of this
Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of
Restricted Stock and/or RSUs to Participants in such amounts as the Committee
shall determine. RSUs shall be similar to Restricted Stock, except that no
Shares are actually awarded to the Participant on the date of grant.
8.2    Award Document. Each Restricted Stock and/or RSU grant shall be evidenced
by an Award Document that shall specify the Period(s) of Restriction, the number
of Shares of Restricted Stock or the number of RSUs granted and such other
provisions as the Committee shall determine.
8.3    Transferability. Except as provided in this Plan or an Award Document,
the Shares of Restricted Stock and/or RSUs may not be sold, transferred,
pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the end of the
applicable Period of Restriction established by the Committee and specified in
the Award Document (and in the case of RSUs until the date of delivery or other
payment), or upon earlier satisfaction of any other conditions, as specified by
the Committee, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award Document or
otherwise at any time by the Committee. All rights with respect to the
Restricted Stock and/or RSUs granted to a Participant shall be available during
his lifetime only to such Participant, except as otherwise provided in an Award
Document or at any time by the Committee.
8.4    Other Restrictions. The Committee shall impose such other conditions
and/or restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock or RSUs as it may deem
advisable including a requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase
price for each Share of Restricted Stock or each RSU, restrictions based upon
the achievement of specific performance goals, time-based restrictions on
vesting following the attainment of the performance goals, time-based
restrictions and/or restrictions under applicable laws or under the requirements
of any stock exchange or market upon which Shares are then listed and/or traded,
or holding requirements or sale restrictions placed on the Shares by the Company
upon vesting of such Restricted Stock or RSUs.
To the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, the Company may retain the
certificates representing Shares of Restricted Stock in the Company’s possession
until such time as all conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares
have been satisfied or lapse.
Except as otherwise provided in this Article 8, Shares of Restricted Stock
covered by each Restricted Stock Award shall become freely transferable by the
Participant after all conditions and restrictions applicable to such Shares have
been satisfied or lapse (including satisfaction of any applicable tax
withholding obligations), and RSUs shall be paid in cash, Shares or a
combination of cash and Shares, as determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion.
8.5    Certificate Legend. In addition to any legends placed on certificates
pursuant to Section 8.4, each certificate representing Shares of Restricted
Stock may bear a legend such as the following or as otherwise determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion:
The sale or transfer of Shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether
voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, is subject to certain
restrictions on transfer as set forth in the IHS Inc. 2004 Long-Term Incentive
Plan, and in the associated Award Document. A copy of this Plan and such Award
Document may be obtained from IHS Inc.
8.6    Voting Rights. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth
in a Participant’s Award Document, to the extent permitted or required by law,
as determined by the Committee, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock
may be granted the right to exercise full voting rights with respect to those
Shares during the Period of Restriction. A Participant shall have no voting
rights with respect to any RSUs.
8.7    Termination of Employment. Each Award Document shall set forth the extent
to which the Participant shall have the right to retain Restricted Stock and/or
RSUs following termination of the Participant’s employment with or provision of
services to the Company and/or its Affiliates, as the case

Page 11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

may be. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the
Committee and need not be uniform among all Shares of Restricted Stock or RSUs,
and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination.
8.8    Section 83(b) Election. The Committee may provide in an Award Document
that the Award of Restricted Stock is conditioned upon the Participant making or
refraining from making an election with respect to the Award under Section 83(b)
of the Code. If a Participant makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the
Code concerning a Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall be required to
file promptly a copy of such election with the Company.
Article 9. Performance Units/Performance Shares
9.1    Grant of Performance Units/Performance Shares. Subject to the provisions
of this Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant
Performance Units and/or Performance Shares to Participants in such amounts and
upon such terms as the Committee shall determine.
9.2    Value of Performance Units/Performance Shares. Each Performance Unit
shall have an initial value that is established by the Committee at the time of
grant. Each Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to the FMV of a
Share on the date of grant. The Committee shall set performance goals in its
discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine
the value and/or number of Performance Units/Performance Shares that will be
paid out to the Participant.
9.3    Earning of Performance Units/Performance Shares. Subject to the
provisions of this Plan, after the applicable Performance Period has ended, the
holder of Performance Units/Performance Shares shall be entitled to receive
payout on the value and number of Performance Units/Performance Shares earned by
the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of
the extent to which the corresponding performance goals have been achieved.
9.4    Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Units/Performance Shares.
Payment of earned Performance Units/Performance Shares shall be as determined by
the Committee and as evidenced in the Award Document. Subject to the provisions
of this Plan, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Performance
Units/Performance Shares in the form of cash or in Shares (or in a combination
thereof) equal to the value of the earned Performance Units/Performance Shares
at the close of the applicable Performance Period, or as soon as practicable
after the end of the Performance Period. Any Shares may be granted subject to
any restrictions deemed appropriate by the Committee. The determination of the
Committee with respect to the form of payout of such Awards shall be set forth
in the Award Document pertaining to the grant of the Award.
9.5    Termination of Employment. Each Award Document shall set forth the extent
to which the Participant shall have the right to retain Performance Units and/or
Performance Shares following termination of the Participant’s employment with or
provision of services to the Company and/or its Affiliates as the case may be.
Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and
need not be uniform among all Awards of Performance Units or Performance Shares
granted under this Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for
termination.
9.6    Transferability. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award
Document or otherwise determined at any time by the Committee, Performance
Units/Performance Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or
otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution. Further, except as otherwise provided in a
Participant’s Award Document or otherwise determined at any time by the
Committee, a Participant’s rights under this Plan shall be exercisable during
his lifetime only by such Participant.
Article 10. Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards

Page 12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.1    Grant of Cash-Based Awards. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the
Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Cash-Based Awards to
Participants in such amounts and upon such terms, including the achievement of
specific performance goals, as the Committee may determine.
10.2    Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee may grant other types of
equity-based or equity-related Awards not otherwise described by the provisions
of this Plan (including the grant or offer for sale of unrestricted Shares) in
such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions, as the Committee shall
determine. Such Awards may involve the transfer of actual Shares to
Participants, or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of
Shares and may include Awards designed to comply with or take advantage of the
applicable local laws of jurisdictions other than the United States.
10.3    Value of Cash-Based and Other Stock-Based Awards. Each Cash-Based Award
shall specify a payment amount or payment range as determined by the Committee.
Each Other Stock-Based Award shall be expressed in terms of Shares or units
based on Shares, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may establish
performance goals in its discretion. If the Committee exercises its discretion
to establish performance goals, the number and/or value of Cash-Based Awards or
Other Stock-Based Awards that will be paid out to the Participant will depend on
the extent to which the performance goals are met.
10.4    Payment of Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards. Payment, if
any, with respect to a Cash-Based Award or an Other Stock-Based Award shall be
made in accordance with the terms of the Award, in cash or Shares as the
Committee determines.
10.5    Termination of Employment. The Committee shall determine the extent to
which the Participant shall have the right to receive Cash-Based Awards or Other
Stock-Based Awards following termination of the Participant’s employment with or
provision of services to the Company and/or its Affiliates, as the case may be.
Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and
need not be uniform among all Awards of Cash-Based Awards or Other Stock-Based
Awards granted under this Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the
reasons for termination.
10.6    Transferability. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee,
neither Cash-Based Awards nor Other Stock-Based Awards may be sold, transferred,
pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, except as otherwise provided
by the Committee, a Participant’s rights under this Plan, if exercisable, shall
be exercisable during his lifetime only by such Participant. With respect to
those Cash-Based Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards, if any, that are permitted
to be transferred to another individual, references in this Plan to exercise or
payment of such Awards by or to the Participant shall be deemed to include, as
determined by the Committee, the Participant’s permitted transferee.
Article 11. Performance Measures
11.1    Performance Measures. Unless and until the Committee proposes for
stockholder vote and the stockholders approve a change in the general
Performance Measures set forth in this Article 11, the performance goals upon
which the payment or vesting of an Award to a Covered Employee (other than a
Covered Employee Annual Incentive Award awarded or credited pursuant to Article
12) that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be
limited to the following Performance Measures:
(a)
Net earnings or net income (before or after taxes);

(b)
Earnings per share;

(c)
Net sales or revenue growth;

(d)
Net operating profit;

Page 13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(e)

sales or revenue);

(f)
Cash flow (including operating cash flow, free cash flow and cash flow return on
equity);

(g)
Earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation and/or amortization,
and/or lease payments or other rent obligations;

(h)
Gross or operating margins;

(i)
Productivity ratios;

(j)
Share price (including growth measures and total stockholder return);

(k)
Expense targets;

(l)
Margins;

(m)
Operating efficiency;

(n)
Market share;

(o)
Customer satisfaction;

(p)
Working capital targets; and

(q)
Economic value added or EVA® (i.e., net operating profit after tax minus the sum
of capital multiplied by the cost of capital).

Any Performance Measure(s) may be used to measure the performance of the Company
and/or Affiliate as a whole or any business unit of the Company and/or Affiliate
or any combination thereof, as the Committee may deem appropriate, or any of the
above Performance Measures as compared to the performance of a group of
comparator companies or published on a special index that the Committee, in its
sole discretion, deems appropriate, or the Company may select Performance
Measure (j) above as compared to various stock market indices. The Committee
also has the authority to provide for accelerated vesting of any Award based on
the achievement of performance goals pursuant to the Performance Measures
specified in this Article 11.
11.2    Evaluation of Performance. The Committee may provide in any such Award
that any evaluation of performance may include or exclude any of the following
events that occurs during a Performance Period: (a) asset write-downs, (b)
litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (c) the effect of changes in tax
laws, accounting principles or other laws or regulations affecting reported
results, (d) any reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) extraordinary
nonrecurring items as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30
and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and
results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to stockholders
for the applicable year, (f) acquisitions or divestitures, and (g) foreign
exchange gains and losses. To the extent such inclusions or exclusions affect
Awards to Covered Employees, they shall be prescribed in a form that meets the
requirements of tax deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code.
11.3    Adjustment of Performance-Based Compensation. Awards that are intended
to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation may not be adjusted upward. The
Committee shall retain the discretion to adjust such Awards downward, either on
a formula or discretionary basis or any combination, as the Committee
determines.
11.4    Committee Discretion. In the event that applicable tax and/or securities
laws change to permit Committee discretion to alter the governing Performance
Measures without obtaining stockholder approval of such changes, the Committee
shall have sole discretion to make such changes without

Page 14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

obtaining stockholder approval. In addition, in the event that the Committee
determines that it is advisable to grant Awards that shall not qualify as
Performance-Based Compensation, the Committee may make such grants without
satisfying the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and base vesting on
Performance Measures other than those set forth in Section 11.1.
Article 12. Covered Employee Annual Incentive Award
12.1    Establishment of Incentive Pool. The Committee may designate Covered
Employees who are eligible to receive a monetary payment in any Plan Year based
on a percentage of an incentive pool equal to the greater of: (i) nine percent
(9%) of the Company’s Consolidated Operating Earnings for the Plan Year, (ii)
ten percent (10%) of the Company’s Operating Cash Flow for the Plan Year, or
(iii) fifteen percent (15%) of the Company’s Net Income for the Plan Year. The
Committee shall allocate an incentive pool percentage to each designated Covered
Employee for each Plan Year. In no event may (1) any Covered Employee receive
more than two million dollars ($2,000,000) from the incentive pool and (2) the
sum of the incentive pool percentages for all Covered Employees cannot exceed
one hundred percent (100%) of the total pool.
12.2    Determination of Covered Employees’ Portions. As soon as possible after
the determination of the incentive pool for a Plan Year, the Committee shall
calculate each Covered Employee’s allocated portion of the incentive pool based
upon the percentage established at the beginning of such Plan Year. Each Covered
Employee’s incentive award then shall be determined by the Committee based on
the Covered Employee’s allocated portion of the incentive pool subject to
adjustment in the sole discretion of the Committee. In no event may the portion
of the incentive pool allocated to a Covered Employee be increased in any way,
including as a result of the reduction of any other Covered Employee’s allocated
portion. The Committee shall retain the discretion to adjust such Awards
downward.
Article 13. Nonemployee Director Awards
All Awards to Nonemployee Directors shall be determined by the Board or
Committee.
Article 14. Dividend Equivalents
Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted dividend equivalents
based on the dividends declared on Shares that are subject to any Award, to be
credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the
Award is granted and the date the Award is exercised, vests or expires, as
determined by the Committee. Such dividend equivalents shall be converted to
cash or additional Shares by such formula and at such time and subject to such
limitations as may be determined by the Committee.
Article 15. Beneficiary Designation
Each Participant under this Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or
beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any
benefit under this Plan is to be paid in case of his death before he receives
any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior
designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the
Committee, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing
with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such
designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid
to the Participant’s estate.
Article 16. Deferrals
The Committee may permit or require a Participant to defer such Participant’s
receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be
due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise of an Option or SAR, the lapse
or waiver of restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock or RSUs, or the
satisfaction of any requirements or performance goals with respect to
Performance Shares, Performance

Page 15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Units, Cash-Based Awards, Other Stock-Based Awards or Covered Employee Annual
Incentive Awards. If any such deferral election is required or permitted, the
Committee shall, in its sole discretion, establish rules and procedures for such
payment deferrals.
Article 17. Rights of Participants
17.1    Employment. Nothing in this Plan or an Award Document shall interfere
with or limit in any way the right of the Company and/or its Affiliates to
terminate any Participant’s employment or service on the Board or to the Company
at any time or for any reason not prohibited by law, nor confer upon any
Participant any right to continue his employment or service as a Director or
Service Provider for any specified period of time.
Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an
employment contract with the Company and/or its Affiliates and, accordingly,
subject to Articles 3 and 19, this Plan and the benefits under this Plan may be
terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Committee
without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company and/or its
Affiliates.
17.2    Participation. No individual shall have the right to be selected to
receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to
receive a future Award.
17.3    Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, a
Participant shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to
Shares covered by any Award until the Participant becomes the record holder of
such Shares.
Article 18. Change in Control
18.1 Change in Control of the Company. Subject to Section 2.6, notwithstanding
any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Article
18 shall apply in the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise determined
by the Committee in connection with the grant of an Award as reflected in the
applicable Award Document.
Upon a Change in Control, all then-outstanding Stock Options and SARs shall
become fully vested and exercisable, and all other then-outstanding Awards that
vest on the basis of continuous service shall vest in full and be free of
restrictions, except to the extent that another Award meeting the requirements
of Section 18.2 (a “Replacement Award”) is provided to the Participant pursuant
to Section 4.4 to replace such Award (the “Replaced Award”). The treatment of
any other Awards shall be as determined by the Committee in connection with the
grant thereof, as reflected in the applicable Award Document.
18.2    Replacement Awards. An Award shall meet the conditions of this Section
18.2 (and hence qualify as a Replacement Award) if: (i) it has a value at least
equal to the value of the Replaced Award; (ii) it relates to publicly traded
equity securities of the Company or its successor in the Change in Control or
another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following
the Change in Control; and (iii) its other terms and conditions are not less
favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award
(including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change
in Control). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement
Award may take the form of a continuation of the Replaced Award if the
requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of
whether the conditions of this Section 18.2 are satisfied shall be made by the
Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole
discretion.
18.3    Termination of Employment. Upon a termination of employment or
termination of directorship of a Participant occurring in connection with or
during the period of one (1) year after such Change in Control, other than for
Cause, (i) all Replacement Awards held by the Participant shall become fully
vested and (if applicable) exercisable and free of restrictions; provided,
however, that if such acceleration would cause penalty taxation under Section
409A of the Code with respect to any Replacement Award, then the Committee may
unilaterally delay such acceleration for such time as is

Page 16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sufficient to avoid such penalty, and (ii) all Stock Options and SARs held by
the Participant immediately before the termination of employment or termination
of directorship that the Participant held as of the date of the Change in
Control or that constitute Replacement Awards shall remain exercisable for not
less than one (1) year following such termination or until the expiration of the
stated term of such Stock Option or SAR, whichever period is shorter; provided,
that if the applicable Award Document provides for a longer period of
exercisability, that provision shall control.
Article 19. Amendment, Modification, Suspension and Termination
19.1    Amendment, Modification, Suspension and Termination. Subject to Section
19.3, the Committee may, at any time and from time to time, alter, amend,
modify, suspend or terminate this Plan and any Award Document in whole or in
part; provided, however, that, without the prior approval of the Company’s
stockholders and except as provided in Sections 4.4 and 6.11, Options or SARs
will not be repriced, replaced or regranted (i) through cancellation, (ii) by
lowering the Exercise Price of a previously granted Option or the Grant Price of
a previously granted SAR, or (iii) by a cash buyout of underwater Options; and
no amendment of this Plan shall be made without stockholder approval if
stockholder approval is required by law, regulation or stock exchange rule,
including the Exchange Act, the Code and/or the NYSE Listed Company Manual.
19.2    Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or
Nonrecurring Events. The Committee may make adjustments in the terms and
conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or
nonrecurring events (including the events described in Section 4.4) affecting
the Company or the financial statements of the Company or of changes in
applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, whenever the Committee
determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent unintended
dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be
made available under this Plan. The determination of the Committee as to the
foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on Participants
under this Plan.
19.3    Awards Previously Granted. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Plan to the contrary, no termination, amendment, suspension or modification of
this Plan or an Award Document shall adversely affect in any material way any
previously granted Award, without the written consent of the Participant holding
such Award.
Article 20. Withholding
20.1    Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to
deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, the
minimum statutory amount to satisfy federal, state and local taxes, domestic or
foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any
taxable event arising as a result of this Plan.
20.2    Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the
exercise of Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock
and RSUs, or upon the achievement of performance goals related to Performance
Shares, or any other taxable event arising as a result of an Award, Participants
may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, to satisfy the withholding
requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares having a
FMV on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total
tax that could be imposed on the transaction. All such elections shall be
irrevocable, made in writing, and signed by the Participant, and shall be
subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole
discretion, deems appropriate.
Article 21. Successors
All obligations of the Company under this Plan with respect to Awards shall be
binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor
is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company.

Page 17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Article 22. General Provisions
22.1    Forfeiture Events.    
(a)
The Committee may specify in an Award Document that the Participant’s rights,
payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction,
cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified
events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance
conditions of an Award. Such events may include, but shall not be limited to,
termination of employment for cause, termination of the Participant’s provision
of services to the Company and/or Affiliate, violation of material Company
and/or Affiliate policies, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality or other
restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the
Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company
and/or one or more of its Affiliates.

(b)
If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the
material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of misconduct, with any
financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, if the Participant is
one of the individuals subject to automatic forfeiture under Section 304 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Participant shall reimburse the Company the
amount of any payment in settlement of an Award earned or accrued during the
twelve- (12-) month period following the first public issuance or filing with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (whichever just occurred) of the
financial document embodying such financial reporting requirement.

22.2    Legend. The certificates for Shares may include any legend which the
Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer of such
Shares.
22.3    Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any
masculine term used in this Plan or in an Award Document also shall include the
feminine, the plural shall include the singular, and the singular shall include
the plural.
22.4    Severability. In the event any provision of this Plan shall be held
illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect
the remaining parts of this Plan, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced
as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.
22.5    Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance or other
delivery of Shares under this Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws,
rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any applicable governmental
agencies or stock exchange or market upon which Shares are then listed
and/or traded, as may be required.
22.6    Delivery of Title. The Company shall have no obligation to issue or
deliver evidence of title for Shares issued or otherwise delivered under this
Plan prior to:
(a)
Obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines
are necessary or advisable; and

(b)
Completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any
applicable national or foreign law or ruling of any governmental body that the
Company determines to be necessary or advisable.

22.7    Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain
authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is
deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance (or other
delivery) and sale of any Shares under this Plan, shall relieve the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares
as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.
22.8    Investment Representations. The Committee may require any individual
receiving Shares pursuant to an Award under this Plan to represent and warrant
in writing that the individual is acquiring the Shares for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares.
22.9    Employees Based Outside of the United States. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in
other countries in which the Company and/or its Affiliates operate or have
Employees, Directors or Service Providers, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, shall have the power and authority to:
(a)
Determine which Affiliates shall be covered by this Plan;

(b)
Determine which Employees, Directors or Service Providers outside the United
States are eligible to participate in this Plan;

(c)
Modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Employees, Directors or
Service Providers outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign
laws;

(d)    Establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and
procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable. Any
subplans and modifications to Plan terms and procedures established under this
Section 22.9 by the Committee shall be attached to this Plan document as
appendices; and
(e)    Take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems
advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local government
regulatory exemptions or approvals.
Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may not take any actions under this
Plan, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate applicable law.
22.10    Uncertificated Shares. To the extent that this Plan provides for
issuance of certificates to reflect the transfer of Shares, the transfer of such
Shares may be effected on an uncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited
by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or market upon which Shares
are then listed and/or traded.
22.11    Unfunded Plan. Participants shall have no right, title or interest
whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company and/or its Affiliates may
make to aid it in meeting its obligations under this Plan. Nothing contained in
this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be
construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the
Company and any Participant, beneficiary, legal representative or any other
individual. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments
from the Company and/or its Affiliates under this Plan, such right shall be no
greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or an
Affiliate, as the case may be. All payments to be made under this Plan shall be
paid from the general funds of the Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be,
and no special or separate fund shall be established and no segregation of
assets shall be made to ensure payment of such amounts except as expressly set
forth in this Plan.
22.12    No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered
pursuant to this Plan or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash,
Awards or other property shall be issued, delivered or otherwise paid in lieu of
fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall
be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

22.13    Retirement and Welfare Plans. Neither Awards made under this Plan nor
Shares or cash paid pursuant to such Awards, except pursuant to Covered Employee
Annual Incentive Awards, may be included as “compensation” for purposes of
computing the benefits payable to any Participant under the Company’s or
Affiliate’s retirement plans (both qualified and nonqualified) or welfare
benefit plans unless such other plan expressly provides that such compensation
shall be taken into account in computing a Participant’s benefit.
22.14    Nonexclusivity of this Plan. The adoption of this Plan shall not be
construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or Committee to
adopt such other compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable for any
Participant.
22.15    No Constraint on Corporate Action. Nothing in this Plan shall be
construed to: (i) limit, impair or otherwise affect the Company’s or an
Affiliate’s right or power to make adjustments, reclassifications,
reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, or to merge or
consolidate, or dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its
business or assets; or, (ii) limit the right or power of the Company or an
Affiliate to take any action which such entity deems to be necessary or
appropriate.
22.16    Governing Law. This Plan and each Award Document shall be governed by
the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule
or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this
Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction. Unless otherwise provided
in the Award Document, recipients of an Award are deemed to submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal or state courts of Delaware, to
resolve any and all issues that may arise out of or relate to this Plan or any
related Award Document.
