may delegate specific administrative tasks to Company employees or others as
appropriate for proper administration of the Plan. The Committee shall have such
powers as may be necessary to discharge its duties hereunder, including, but not
by way of limitation, the following powers and duties, but subject to the terms
of the Plan:
(i)    discretionary authority to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan,
and to determine eligibility, Awards and the amount, manner and time of payment
of any Awards hereunder;

2

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

(ii)    to prescribe forms and procedures for purposes of Plan participation and
distribution of Awards; and
(iii)    to adopt rules, regulations and bylaws and to take such actions as it
deems necessary or desirable for the proper administration of the Plan.
(b)    Any rule or decision by the Committee that is not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan shall be conclusive and binding on all persons, and shall
be given the maximum deference permitted by law.
4.    Eligibility. The employees eligible to participate in the Plan for a given
Performance Period shall be any officer or key employee of the Company who is
designated by the Committee in its sole discretion (each, a “Participant”). No
person shall be automatically entitled to participate in the Plan.
5.    Determination of Awards. On or prior to the Determination Date, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall establish with respect to each
Participant, one or more Performance Periods, one or more individual Participant
incentive targets for each Performance Period, and the Performance Goal(s) to be
met during such Performance Periods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Committee may also grant Awards that are not based on the attainment of specific
Performance Goals. In no event shall a Participant’s Award for any Performance
Period exceed the Maximum Award.
6.    Determination of Award Payment.
(a)    Determination and Certification. After the end of each Performance
Period, the Committee shall certify in writing (which may be by approval of the
minutes in which the certification was made) the extent to which the Performance
Goals applicable to each Participant for the Performance Period were achieved or
exceeded. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan, the Committee, in
its sole discretion, may eliminate or reduce the Award payable to any
Participant below that which otherwise would be payable. In addition, the
Committee reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to increase the amount of
an Award otherwise payable to a Participant with respect to any Performance
Period.
(b)    Right to Receive Payment. Each Award under the Plan shall be paid solely
from the general assets of the Company. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed
to create a trust or to establish or evidence any Participant’s claim of any
right to payment of an Award other than as an unsecured general creditor with
respect to any payment to which he or she may be entitled. Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, a Participant needs to be employed by the Company
through the date the Award is paid in order to be eligible to receive an Award
payout hereunder. The Committee may make exceptions to this requirement in the
case of retirement, death or disability or under other circumstances, as
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
(c)    Form of Distributions. The Company shall distribute all Awards to the
Participant in cash.

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

(d)    Timing of Distributions. In order to comply with the short-term deferral
exception under Section 409A of the Code, if the Committee waives the
requirement under Section 6(b) that a Participant must be employed on the date
the Award is to be paid, payout shall occur no later than the 15th day of the
third month following the later of (i) the end of the Company’s taxable year in
which such requirement is waived or (ii) the end of the calendar year in which
such requirement is waived.
(e)    Deferral. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit a Participant
to defer receipt of the payment of Awards that would otherwise be delivered to a
Participant under the Plan. Any such deferral elections shall be subject to such
rules and procedures as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion.
7.    Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Committee may amend, modify,
suspend or terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time, including the
adoption of amendments deemed necessary or desirable to correct any defect or to
supply omitted data or to reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any
Award granted hereunder; provided, however, that no amendment, alteration,
suspension or discontinuation shall be made which would impair any payments to
Participants made prior to such amendment, modification, suspension or
termination, unless the Committee has made a determination that such amendment
or modification is in the best interests of all persons to whom Awards have
theretofore been granted; provided further, however, that in no event may such
an amendment or modification result in an increase in the amount of compensation
payable pursuant to such Award. At no time before the actual distribution of
funds to Participants under the Plan shall any Participant accrue any vested
interest or right whatsoever under the Plan except as otherwise stated in this
Plan. Nothing in this Section 7 is intended to limit the Company’s ability to
recover Plan payouts pursuant to any recoupment, clawback or similar policy or
applicable law, rule or regulation then in effect.
8.    Withholding. Distributions pursuant to this Plan shall be subject to all
applicable income, employment, social insurance, National Insurance
Contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefit tax, and other legally applicable tax
or other withholding requirements.
9.    At­-Will Employment. No statement in this Plan or Award granted hereunder
should be construed to grant any employee an employment contract of fixed
duration or any other contractual rights, nor should this Plan or any Award
granted hereunder be interpreted as creating an implied or an expressed contract
of employment or any other contractual rights between the Company and its
employees. The employment relationship between the Company and its employees is
terminable at­-will. This means that a Participant and the Company each may
terminate the employment relationship at any time and for any or no reason.
10.    Successors. All obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect
to Awards granted hereunder, 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 or assets of the Company.

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

11.    Indemnification. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the
Committee, or of the Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Company against and from (a) any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be
imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or
resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be
a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or
failure to act under the Plan or any Award, and (b) from any and all amounts
paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid
by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such claim, action, suit,
or proceeding against him or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an
opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she
undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right
of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification
to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws, by contract, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or under
any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.
12.    Miscellaneous.
(a)    Nonassignment. The rights and privileges of a Participant under this Plan
(including, without limitation, any Award granted to a Participant hereunder)
shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant except by will or the
laws of intestacy. Upon any attempt to assign or transfer any Awards, rights or
privileges, such Awards, rights or privileges are immediately null and void.
(b)    Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California, without regard to conflicts of law provisions thereunder.
(c)    Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience
only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of the
Plan. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include
the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term “or” is
not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
(d)    Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision
invalid and unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Plan shall continue
in effect.
(e)    Clawback. An Award granted under the Plan will be subject to any
provisions of applicable laws, rules or regulations providing for the recoupment
or clawback of incentive compensation; the terms of any Company recoupment,
clawback or similar policy in effect at the time of grant of the Award or
otherwise agreed upon between the Company and the recipient of the Award; and
any recoupment, clawback or similar provisions that may be included in any
applicable forms governing any Awards granted under the Plan.
