EXHIBIT 10.01




INTUIT INC.




2002 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN




As Amended Through July 30, 2003



     1.     PURPOSE. The purpose of the Plan is to provide incentives to attract,
retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions
are important to the success of the Company its Parent or Subsidiaries by
offering them an opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance
through awards of Options, Restricted Stock and Stock Bonuses. Capitalized
terms not defined in the text are defined in Section 23.



     2.     SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.



               2.1      Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 18, the
following number of Shares are available for grant and issuance under the Plan:
(a) 12,850,000 Shares, plus (b) 1,900,000 Shares resulting from authorized
shares not issued or subject to outstanding grants under the Company’s 1993
Equity Incentive Plan (the “Prior Plan”) on the Effective Date (as defined in
Section 19); plus (c) Shares that are subject to: (i) issuance upon exercise of
an Option but cease to be subject to the Option for any reason other than
exercise of the Option; (ii) an Award that otherwise terminates without Shares
being issued; or (iii) are subject to an Award that is forfeited or are
repurchased by the Company at the original issue price. No more than 10,000,000
shares shall be issued as ISOs. At all times the Company will reserve and keep
available a sufficient number of Shares to satisfy the requirements of all
outstanding Options granted under the Plan and all other outstanding but
unvested Awards granted under the Plan.



               2.2      Adjustment of Shares. If the number of outstanding Shares is changed
by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split,
subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital
structure of the Company, without consideration, then (a) the number of Shares
reserved for issuance under the Plan, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of
Shares subject to outstanding Options, (c) the number of Shares subject to
other outstanding Awards, (d) the 10,000,000 maximum number of shares that may
be issued as ISOs set forth in Section 2.1; (e) the 2,000,000 and 3,000,000
maximum number of shares that may be issued to an individual in any one
calendar year set forth in Section 3; and (f) the annual 500,000 Share limit on
the aggregate number of Shares that may be: (i) made subject to an Option
granted at an Exercise Price of less than Fair Market Value on the date of
grant, (ii) issued under the Plan as a Stock Bonus; and (iii) issued under the
Plan as a Restricted Stock Award at a Purchase Price of less than Fair Market
Value on the date the Award is made, will be proportionately adjusted, subject
to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and
compliance with applicable securities laws; provided that fractions of a Share
will not be issued but will either be paid in cash at Fair Market Value, or
will be rounded up to the nearest Share, as determined by the Committee; and
provided further that the Exercise Price of any Option may not be decreased to
below the par value of the Shares.



     3.     ELIGIBILITY. ISOs may be granted only to employees (including officers
and directors who are also employees) of the Company or of a Parent or
Subsidiary. All other Awards may be granted to employees, officers, directors,
consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the Company or any Parent
or Subsidiary; provided that such consultants, contractors and advisors render
bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a
capital-raising transaction. The Committee (or its designee under 4.1(c)) will
from time to time determine and designate among the eligible persons who will
be granted one or more Awards under the Plan. A person may be granted more than
one Award under the Plan. However, no person will be eligible to receive more
than 2,000,000 Shares in any calendar year under this Plan pursuant to the
grant of Awards hereunder, other than new employees of the Company or of a
Parent or Subsidiary (including new employees who are also officers and
directors of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary), who are eligible to
receive up to a maximum of 3,000,000 Shares in the calendar year in which they
commence their employment.

     4.     ADMINISTRATION.



               4.1      Committee Authority. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee will have full
power to implement and carry out the Plan. Without limiting the previous
sentence, the Committee will have the authority to:





	 	(a)	 	construe and interpret the Plan, any Award Agreement and any
other agreement or document executed pursuant to the Plan;
	 
	 	(b)	 	prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating
to the Plan, including determining the forms and agreements used in
connection with the Plan; provided that the Committee may delegate
to the President, the Chief Financial Officer or the officer in
charge of Human Resources, in consultation with the General Counsel,
the authority to approve revisions to the forms and agreements used
in connection with the Plan that are designed to facilitate Plan
administration, and that are not inconsistent with the Plan or with
any resolutions of the Committee relating to the Plan;
	 
	 	(c)	 	select persons to receive Awards; provided that the Committee
may delegate to one or more Executive Officers of the Company the
authority to grant an Award under the Plan to Participants who are
not Insiders of the Company;
	 
	 	(d)	 	determine the terms of Awards;
	 
	 	(e)	 	determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject
to Awards;
	 
	 	(f)	 	determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in
combination, or in tandem with, in replacement of, or as
alternatives to, other Awards under the Plan or any other incentive
or compensation plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary;
	 
	 	(g)	 	grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions;
	 
	 	(h)	 	determine the vesting, exercisability, transferability, and payment
of Awards;
	 
	 	(i)	 	correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any
inconsistency in the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement;
	 
	 	(j)	 	determine whether an Award has been earned;
	 
	 	(k)	 	amend the Plan; or
	 
	 	(l)	 	make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan.



               4.2      Committee Interpretation and Discretion. Any determination made by
the Committee with respect to any Award shall be made in its sole discretion at
the time of grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any express term
of the Plan or Award, at any later time, and such determination shall be final
and binding on the Company and all persons having an interest in any Award
under the Plan. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Plan or any
Award Agreement shall be submitted by Participant or the Company to the
Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall
be final and binding on the Company and Participant.



     5.     OPTIONS. The Committee may grant Options to eligible persons and will
determine (a) whether the Options will be ISOs or NQSOs; (b) the number of
Shares subject to the Option, (c) the Exercise Price of the Option, (d) the
period during which the Option may be exercised, and (e) all other terms and
conditions of the Option, subject to the following:



2







 


               5.1      Form of Option Grant. Each Option granted under the Plan will be
evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement that will expressly identify the Option
as an ISO or NQSO. The Stock Option Agreement will be substantially in a form
(which need not be the same for each Participant) that the Committee or an
officer of the Company (pursuant to Section 4.1(b)) has from time to time
approved, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of
the Plan.



               5.2      Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on
which the Committee makes the determination to grant the Option, unless a later
date is otherwise specified by the Committee. The Stock Option Agreement, and
a copy of the Plan and the current Prospectus for the Plan (plus any additional
documents required to be delivered under applicable laws), will be delivered to
the Participant within a reasonable time after the Option is granted. The
Plan, the Prospectus and other documents may be delivered in any manner
(including electronic distribution or posting) that meets applicable legal
requirements.



               5.3      Exercise Period and Expiration Date. Options will be exercisable
within the times or upon the occurrence of events determined by the Committee
and set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, subject to the provisions of
Section 5.6, and subject to Company policies established by the Committee (or
by individuals to whom the Committee has delegated responsibility) from time to
time with respect to vesting during leaves of absences. The Stock Option
Agreement shall set forth the last date that the option may be exercised (the
“Expiration Date”); provided that no Option will be exercisable after the
expiration of ten years from the date the Option is granted; and provided
further that no ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will be exercisable
after the expiration of five years from the date the Option is granted. The
Committee also may provide for Options to become exercisable at one time or
from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in such number of Shares or
percentage of Shares subject to the Option as the Committee determines.



               5.4      Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an Option will be determined by
the Committee when the Option is granted and may be less than Fair Market Value
(but not less than the par value of the Shares); provided that (i) the Exercise
Price of an ISO will not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on
the date of grant and (ii) the Exercise Price of any ISO granted to a Ten
Percent Stockholder will not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the
Shares on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than
500,000 Shares annually (less any Shares that have been issued under the Plan
as Stock Bonuses or as Restricted Stock Awards at a price of less than Fair
Market Value on the date of grant) may be made subject to Options granted at an
Exercise Price that is less than Fair Market Value on the date of grant.
Payment for the Shares purchased must be made in accordance with Section 8 of
the Plan and the Stock Option Agreement.



               5.5      Procedures for Exercise. A Participant or Authorized Transferee may
exercise Options by following the procedures established by the Company’s Stock
Administration Department, as communicated and made available to Participants
through the stock pages on the Intuit Legal Department intranet web site,
and/or through the Company’s electronic mail system.



               5.6 Termination.



     (a)       Vesting. Any Option granted to a Participant will cease to vest on the
Participant’s Termination Date, if the Participant is Terminated for any reason
other than “total disability” (as defined in this Section 5.6(a)) or death (or
his or her death occurs within three months of Termination). Any Option
granted to a Participant who is an employee who has been actively employed by
the Company or any Subsidiary for one year or more or a director will vest as
to 100% of the Shares subject to such Option, if the Participant is Terminated
due to “total disability” or death (or his or her death occurs within three
months of Termination). For purposes of this Section 5.6(a), “total
disability” shall mean: (A) (i) for so long as such definition is used for
purposes of the Company’s group life insurance and accidental death and
dismemberment plan or group long term disability plan, that the Participant is
unable to perform each of the material duties of any gainful occupation for
which the Participant is or becomes reasonably fitted by training, education or
experience and which total disability is in fact preventing the Participant
from engaging in any employment or occupation for wage or profit; or, (ii) if
such definition has changed, such other definition of “total disability” as
determined under the Company’s group life insurance and accidental death and
dismemberment plan or group long term disability plan; and (B) the Company
shall have received from the Participant’s primary physician a certification
that the Participant’s total disability is likely to be permanent. Any

3







 




Option granted to an employee who is Terminated by the Company, or any
Subsidiary or Parent within one year following the date of a Corporate
Transaction, will immediately vest as to such number of Shares as the
Participant would have been vested twelve months after the date of Termination
had the Participant remained employed for that twelve month period.



     (b)       Post-Termination Exercise Period. Following a Participant’s
Termination, the Participant’s Option may be exercised to the extent vested as
set forth in Section 5.6(a):





	 	(i)	 	no later than 90 days after the Termination Date
if a Participant is Terminated for any reason except death or
Disability, unless a longer time period, not exceeding five
years, is specifically set forth in the Participant’s Stock
Option Agreement; provided that no Option may be exercised
after the Expiration Date of the Option; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	no later than (A) twelve months after the
Termination Date in the case of Termination due to Disability
or (B) eighteen months after the Termination Date in the case
of Termination due to death or if a Participant dies within
three months of the Termination Date, unless a longer time
period, not exceeding five years, is specifically set forth in
the Participant’s Stock Option Agreement; provided that no
Option may be exercised after the Expiration Date of the
Option.



               5.7      Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a reasonable
minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option;
provided that the minimum number will not prevent a Participant from exercising
an Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable.



               5.8      Limitations on ISOs. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as
of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for
the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under the Plan or
under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary) shall not exceed $100,000. If the Fair Market Value of Shares on
the date of grant with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time
by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, the Options for the
first $100,000 worth of Shares to become exercisable in that calendar year will
be ISOs, and the Options for the Shares with a Fair Market Value in excess of
$100,000 that become exercisable in that calendar year will be NQSOs. If the
Code is amended after the Effective Date of the Plan to provide for a different
limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISOs, such
different limit shall be automatically incorporated into the Plan and will
apply to any Options granted after the effective date of the amendment.



               5.9      Notice of Disqualifying Dispositions of Shares Acquired on Exercise of
an ISO. If a Participant sells or otherwise disposes of any Shares acquired
pursuant to the exercise of an ISO on or before the later of (1) the date two
years after the Date of Grant, and (2) the date one year after the exercise of
the ISO (in either case, a “Disqualifying Disposition”), the Participant must
immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition. The Participant
may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation
income recognized by the Participant from the Disqualifying Disposition.



               5.10      Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend
or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in
substitution therefor; provided that any such action may not, without the
written consent of Participant, impair any of Participant’s rights under any
Option previously granted; and provided, further that without stockholder
approval, the modified, extended, renewed or new Option may not have a lower
Exercise Price than the outstanding Option. Any outstanding ISO that is
modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered shall be treated in accordance
with Section 424(h) of the Code. The Committee may reduce the Exercise Price
of outstanding Options without the consent of Participants affected, by a
written notice to them; provided, however, that unless prior stockholder
approval is secured, the Exercise Price may not be reduced below that of the
outstanding Option.



               5.11      No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in the
Plan, no term of the Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or
altered, and no discretion or authority granted under the Plan will be

4







 




exercised, so as to disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code or,
without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under
Section 422 of the Code.



     6.     RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS. The Committee may award Restricted Stock
Awards under the Plan to any eligible person. The Committee will determine the
number of Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Award, the Purchase Price, the
restrictions on the Shares and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted
Stock Award, subject to the following:



               6.1      Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement. All purchases under a Restricted
Stock Award will be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, which
will be in substantially a form (which need not be the same for each
Participant) that the Committee or an officer of the Company (pursuant to
Section 4.1(b)) has from time to time approved, and will comply with and be
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. A Participant can accept a
Restricted Stock Award only by signing and delivering to the Company a
Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, and full payment of the Purchase Price,
within thirty days from the date the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement was
delivered to the Participant. If the Participant does not accept the
Restricted Stock Award in this manner within thirty days, then the offer of the
Restricted Stock Award will terminate, unless the Committee determines
otherwise.



               6.2     Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for a Restricted Stock Award will
be determined by the Committee, and may be less than Fair Market Value (but not
less than the par value of the Shares) on the date the Restricted Stock Award
is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not award
Restricted Stock for more than 500,000 Shares annually (less any Shares that
have been made subject to Options granted with an Exercise Price of less than
Fair Market Value on the date of grant or Stock Bonuses) with a Purchase Price
that is less than Fair Market Value on the date of grant. Payment of the
Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 8 of the Plan and the
Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, and in accordance with any procedures
established by the Company’s Stock Administration Department, as communicated
and made available to Participants through the stock pages on the Intuit Legal
Department intranet web site, and/or through the Company’s electronic mail
system.



               6.3      Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards will be
subject to all restrictions, if any, that the Committee may impose. These
restrictions may be based on completion of a specified number of years of
service with the Company or upon completion of the performance goals as set out
in advance in the Participant’s Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, which
shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Prior
to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall: (a) determine
the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the
Restricted Stock Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be
used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of
Shares that may be awarded to the Participant. Prior to the payment for Shares
to be purchased under any Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall determine
the extent to which such Restricted Stock Award has been earned. Performance
Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with
respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance
Periods and having different performance goals and other criteria.



     7.     STOCK BONUSES.



               7.1      Awards of Stock Bonuses. The Committee may award Stock Bonuses to any
eligible person. No payment will be required for Shares awarded pursuant to a
Stock Bonus. A Stock Bonus may be awarded for past services already rendered
to the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary pursuant to a Stock Bonus
Agreement, which shall be in substantially a form (which need not be the same
for each Participant) that the Committee or an officer of the Company (pursuant
to Section 4.1(b)) has from time to time approved, and will comply with and be
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Committee may not award Stock Bonuses for more than 500,000
Shares annually (less any Shares that have been made subject to Options granted
with an Exercise Price of less than Fair Market Value on the Date of Grant and
any Shares that have been issued under the Plan as Restricted Stock at a
Purchase Price of less than Fair Market Value on the date of grant).



5







 


               7.2      Terms of Stock Bonuses. Stock Bonuses will be subject to all
restrictions, if any, that the Committee imposes. These restrictions may be
based upon completion of a specified number of years of service with the
Company or upon completion of the performance goals as set out in advance in
the Participant’s Stock Bonus Agreement. The terms of Stock Bonuses may vary
from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants. Prior to
the grant of a Stock Bonus, the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature,
length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Stock Bonus; (b)
select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance
goals; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the
Participant. Prior to the issuance of any Shares or other payment to a
Participant pursuant to a Stock Bonus, the Committee will determine the extent
to which the Stock Bonus has been earned. Performance Periods may overlap and
a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Stock Bonuses that
are subject to different Performance Periods and having different performance
goals and other criteria.



               7.3      Form of Payment to Participant. The Committee will determine whether
a Stock Bonus will be paid to the Participant in the form of cash, whole
Shares, or a combination thereof, based on the Fair Market Value on the date of
payment, and in either a lump sum payment or in installments.



               7.4      Termination During Performance Period. If a Participant is Terminated
during a Performance Period for any reason, then the Participant will be
entitled to payment (whether in Shares, cash or otherwise) with respect to the
Stock Bonus only to the extent earned as of the date of Termination in
accordance with the Stock Bonus Agreement, unless the Committee determines
otherwise.



     8.     PAYMENT FOR SHARE PURCHASES.



               8.1      Payment. Payment for Shares purchased pursuant to the Plan may be
made by any of the following methods (or any combination of such methods) that
are described in the applicable Stock Option Agreement or other Award Agreement
and that are permitted by law:





	 	(a)	 	in cash (by check);
	 
	 	(b)	 	in the case of exercise by the Participant, Participant’s
guardian or legal representative or the authorized legal
representative of Participants’ heirs or legatees after
Participant’s death, by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company
to the Participant;
	 
	 	(c)	 	by surrender of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that
either: (1) were obtained by the Participant or Authorized
Transferee in the public market; or (2) if the shares were not
obtained in the public market, they have been owned by the
Participant or Authorized Transferee for more than six months and
have been paid for within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if the
shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note,
the note has been fully paid with respect to the shares);
	 
	 	(d)	 	in the case of exercise by the Participant, Participant’s
guardian or legal representative or the authorized legal
representative of Participants’ heirs or legatees after
Participant’s death, by waiver of compensation due or accrued to
Participant for services rendered;
	 
	 	(e)	 	by tender of property; or
	 
	 	(f)	 	with respect only to purchases upon exercise of an Option,
and provided that a public market for the Company’s stock exists:





	 	 	(1)	except for a Participant who is an Executive
Officer or a director of the Company, through a “same day
sale” commitment from the Participant or Authorized Transferee
and an NASD Dealer whereby the Participant or Authorized
Transferee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to
sell a portion of the Shares purchased in order to pay the
Exercise Price, and



6







 





	 	 	 	whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of the
Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company;
	 
	 	 	 	for a Participant who is an Executive Officer or a director of
the Company, through a “same day sale” commitment from the
Participant and an NASD Dealer whereby the NASD Dealer
irrevocably commits to forward the Exercise Price directly to
the Company before the Company issues the Shares; or
	 
	 	 	(2)	except for a Participant who is an Executive
Officer or a director of the Company, through a “margin”
commitment from Participant or Authorized Transferee and an
NASD Dealer whereby the Participant or Authorized Transferee
irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to pledge the
Shares purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin account as
security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the
Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably
commits upon receipt of the Shares to forward the Exercise
Price directly to the Company.
	 
	 	 	 	for a Participant who is an Executive Officer or a director of
the Company, through a “margin” commitment from Participant and
an NASD Dealer whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits to
forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company before the
Company issues the Shares.





               8.3      Issuance of Shares. Upon payment of the applicable Purchase Price or
Exercise Price (or a commitment for payment from the NASD Dealer designated by
the Participant or Authorized Transferee in the case of an exercise by means of
a “same-day sale” or “margin” commitment), and compliance with other conditions
and procedures established by the Company for the purchase of shares, the
Company shall issue the Shares registered in the name of Participant or
Authorized Transferee (or in the name of the NASD Dealer designated by the
Participant or Authorized Transferee in the case of an exercise by means of a
“same-day sale” or “margin” commitment) and shall deliver certificates
representing the Shares (in physical or electronic form, as appropriate). The
Shares may be subject to legends or other restrictions as described in Section
14 of the Plan.



     9.     WITHHOLDING TAXES.



               9.1      Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued under Awards
granted under the Plan, the Company may require the Participant to pay to the
Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding
tax requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate(s) for the Shares.
If a payment in satisfaction of an Award is to be made in cash, the payment
will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local
withholding tax requirements.



               9.2      Stock Withholding. When, under applicable tax laws, a Participant
incurs tax liability in connection with the exercise or vesting of any Award
that is subject to tax withholding and the Participant is obligated to pay the
Company the amount required to be withheld, the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, allow the Participant to satisfy the minimum withholding tax
obligation by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be
issued that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum
amount required to be withheld, determined on the date that the amount of tax
to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by a Participant to have
Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in writing in a form acceptable
to the Committee.



     10.     PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP. No Participant or Authorized
Transferee will have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to
any Shares until the Shares are issued to the Participant or Authorized
Transferee. After Shares are issued to the Participant or Authorized
Transferee, the Participant or Authorized Transferee will be a stockholder and
have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares; provided,
however, that if the Shares are Restricted Stock, any new, additional or
different securities the Participant or Authorized Transferee may become
entitled to receive with respect to the Shares by virtue of a stock dividend,
stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the
Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock;
provided further, that the Participant or Authorized Transferee will have no
right

7







 




to retain such dividends or distributions with respect to Shares that are
repurchased at the Participant’s original Exercise Price or Purchase Price
pursuant to Section 14.



     11.     TRANSFERABILITY. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11, no
Award and no interest therein, shall be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution, and no Award may be made subject to execution,
attachment or similar process.



               11.1      Awards Other Than NQSOs. All Awards other than NQSO’s shall be
exercisable (a) during a Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or the
Participant’s guardian or legal representative; and (b) after Participant’s
death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s heirs or legatees.



               11.2      NQSOs. During a Participant’s lifetime an NQSO shall be exercisable
by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative, and
with the permission of the Committee, may be transferred to an Authorized
Transferee.



     12.     RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES. At the discretion of the Committee, the
Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement a
right to repurchase all or a portion of a Participant’s Shares that are not
“Vested” (as defined in the Award Agreement), following the Participant’s
Termination, at any time within ninety days after the later of (i) the
Participant’s Termination Date or (ii) the date the Participant purchases
Shares under the Plan, for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness
with respect to Shares, at the Participant’s original Exercise Price or
Purchase Price; provided that upon assignment of the right to repurchase, the
assignee must pay the Company, upon assignment of the right to repurchase, cash
equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares over the original
Purchase Price.



     13.     CERTIFICATES. All certificates for Shares or other securities
delivered under the Plan (whether in physical or electronic form, as
appropriate) will be subject to stock transfer orders, legends and other
restrictions that the Committee deems necessary or advisable, including without
limitation restrictions under any applicable federal, state or foreign
securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or
any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may be
listed.



     14.     ESCROW. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares, the
Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing
Shares, together with stock powers or other transfer instruments approved by
the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent
designated by the Company, to hold in escrow until such restrictions have
lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends
referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates.



     15.     SECURITIES LAW AND OTHER REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. An Award shall not be
effective unless the Award is in compliance with all applicable state, federal
and foreign securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body,
and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on
which the Shares may then be listed, as they are in effect on the date of grant
of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance.
Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the Company shall have no
obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under the Plan prior to
(a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company
determines are necessary or advisable, and/or (b) completion of any
registration or other qualification of such shares under any state, federal or
foreign law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to
be necessary or advisable. The Company shall be under no obligation to
register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration,
qualification or listing requirements of any state, federal or foreign
securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company
shall have no liability for any inability or failure to do so.



     16.     NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY. Nothing in the Plan or any Award granted
under the Plan shall confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right
to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or limit in any way the right of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate Participant’s employment or
other relationship at any time, with or without cause.

     17.     EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF AWARDS. The Committee may, at any time or from
time to time, authorize the Company, with prior stockholder approval and the
consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the
surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. The Committee may
at any time buy from a Participant an Option previously granted with payment in
cash, Shares or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the
Committee and the Participant shall agree.



     18.     CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.



               18.1      Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the event of a
Corporate Transaction any or all outstanding Awards may be assumed or replaced
by the successor corporation, which assumption or replacement shall be binding
on all Participants. In the alternative, the successor corporation may
substitute equivalent Awards or provide substantially similar consideration to
Participants as was provided to stockholders (after taking into account the
existing provisions of the Awards). The successor corporation may also issue,
in place of outstanding Shares of the Company held by the Participant,
substantially similar shares or other property subject to repurchase
restrictions no less favorable to the Participant. In the event such successor
corporation, if any, refuses to assume or replace the Awards, as provided
above, pursuant to a Corporate Transaction or if there is no successor
corporation due to a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, such Awards
shall immediately vest as to 100% of the Shares subject thereto at such time
and on such conditions as the Board shall determine and the Awards shall expire
at the closing of the transaction or at the time of dissolution or liquidation.



               18.2      Other Treatment of Awards. Subject to any greater rights granted to
Participants under Section 18.1, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, any
outstanding Awards shall be treated as provided in the applicable agreement or
plan of merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation or sale of assets.



               18.3      Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time,
also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company,
whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise,
by either (a) granting an Award under the Plan in substitution of such other
company’s award, or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted under the
Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted
under the Plan. Such substitution or assumption shall be permissible if the
holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be
granted an Award under the Plan if the other company had applied the rules of
the Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by
another company, the terms and conditions of such award shall remain unchanged
(except that the exercise price and the number and nature of Shares issuable
upon exercise of any such option will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to
Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new
Option rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted
with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price.



     19.     ADOPTION AND STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. The Plan was adopted by the Board
on October 24, 2001 (the “Adoption Date”). The Plan became effective upon
approval by stockholders of the Company, consistent with applicable laws, on
January 18, 2002 (the “Effective Date”).



     20.     TERM OF PLAN. The Plan will terminate ten years from the Adoption
Date.



     21.     AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board may at any time terminate
or amend the Plan in any respect, including without limitation amendment of any
form of Award Agreement or instrument to be executed pursuant to the Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Board nor the Committee shall,
without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend the Plan in any
manner that requires such stockholder approval pursuant to the Code or the
regulations promulgated thereunder as such provisions apply to ISO plans, or
pursuant to the Exchange Act or any rule promulgated thereunder. In addition,
no amendment that is detrimental to a Participant may be made to any
outstanding Award without the consent of the Participant.



     22.     NONEXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN; UNFUNDED PLAN. Neither the adoption of
the Plan by the Board, the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the
Company for approval, nor any provision of the Plan shall be construed as
creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional
compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without
limitation, the granting of stock options and bonuses otherwise than under the
Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable
only in

9







 




specific cases. The Plan shall be unfunded. Neither the Company nor the Board
shall be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented
by Awards made pursuant to the Plan. Neither the Company, the Committee, nor

EXECUTIVE STOCK OWNERSHIP PROGRAM MATCHING UNIT



Intuit Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants you a
matching restricted stock unit in the form of a Stock Bonus Award (“Award”)
pursuant to the Company’s 2002 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), for the
number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share
(“Common Stock”) set forth below. This Award is subject to all of the terms
and conditions of the Plan, which is incorporated into this Agreement by
reference. All capitalized terms in this Stock Bonus Agreement (“Agreement”)
that are not defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in the
Plan.



     Name of Participant:

 
     Social Security Number:


      Address:



     Number of Shares:

 
     Date of Grant:


      Vesting Date:



Vesting: Subject to the forfeiture provisions set forth in this Agreement,
this Award will vest as to 100% of the Number of Shares on the Vesting Date set
forth above, provided you have remained employed by the Company through that
date. The Vesting Date is the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant.



In the event of your Termination prior to the Vesting Date, the following
provisions will govern the vesting of this Award:





		
	 	Termination due to Resignation or by Company for Cause: In the event of
your Termination prior to the Vesting Date due to your resignation or
termination of employment by the Company for Cause, this Award will
terminate without having vested as to any of the shares subject to this
Award and you will have no right or claim to anything under this Award.
For purposes of this Award, Cause means (i) you have been convicted of a
misdemeanor that involves moral turpitude or the embezzlement of property
of the Company or one of its affiliates; (ii) you have been convicted of a
felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof; (iii)
your willful misconduct in the performance of your duties as a Company
employee; (iv) your gross negligence in the performance of your duties as
a Company employee; or (v) you have persistently failed to follow the
lawful instructions of your manager relating to an activity within the
scope of your duties. In order for a condition identified in (iv) or (v)
to constitute Cause, the Company shall first have provided you with (A) at
least thirty days’ written notice of the alleged actions setting forth
with specificity the events or failures complained of and (B) an
opportunity to remedy to the reasonable satisfaction of your manager such
condition within such thirty day period and you shall have failed to
remedy such condition.





		
	 	Termination due to Retirement or by Company for other than Cause: In the
event of your Termination prior to the Vesting Date due to your Retirement
or termination of employment by the Company for reasons other than Cause,
you will vest pro-rata in a percentage of the Number of Shares equal to
your number of full months of service since the Date of Grant divided by
forty-eight months, rounded down to the nearest whole share of Intuit
Common Stock, and the Vesting Date under this Agreement will be your
Termination Date. For purposes of this Award, Retirement means the
Termination of your employment with the Company after you have reached an
age and service requirement determined by the Committee or its delegate.





		
	 	Termination due to Death or Total Disability: In the event of your
Termination prior to the Vesting Date due to your death or Total
Disability, this Award will vest as to 100% of the Number of the Shares on
your Termination Date, and the Vesting Date under this Agreement will be
your Termination Date. For purposes of this Award, Total Disability is
defined in Section 5.6(a) of the Plan.





		
	 	Termination Within One Year Following Corporate Transaction: In the event
of your Termination prior to the Vesting Date, but within one year
following the date of a Corporate Transaction, this Award will vest as to
100% of the Number of the Shares on your Termination Date, and the Vesting
Date under this Agreement will be your Termination Date. For purposes of
this Award, Corporate Transaction is defined in Section 23(h) of the Plan.



Forfeiture: You acknowledge and agree that if prior to the date on which you
vest fully in this Award you sell, gift or otherwise transfer the shares you
purchased that caused the Company to grant you this Award, this Award will
terminate and you will forfeit all rights to this Award and any shares subject
hereto, unless the Company determines in its sole discretion that you continue
to hold other shares of the Company’s


 







 




Common Stock in a number equal to or greater than the number of shares that
caused the Company to grant you this Award.



Issuance of Shares under this Award: The Company will issue you the shares
subject to this Award on the later of: (1) the Vesting Date; or (2) your
Voluntary Deferral of Share Issuance Date. Until the date the shares are
issued to you, you will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company and the
shares subject to this Award will not count as owned by you under the Company’s
share ownership requirements.



Withholding Taxes: When the vesting and issuance of the shares under this Award
gives rise to a federal or other governmental income or employment tax
withholding obligation on the part of the Company, the Company will withhold
from the shares issued to you a number of whole shares having a Fair Market
Value equal to the minimum amount to be withheld to satisfy the withholding
obligation and will transmit the equivalent cash amount to the applicable
taxing authorities. If you have made a voluntary deferral of the share
issuance to a date later than the Vesting Date in accordance with the
provisions set forth in this Agreement, you agree that you will remit cash to
the Company (through payroll deduction or otherwise) in an amount sufficient to
satisfy any withholding obligation resulting from the vesting of the shares
under this Award. (As of the date of this Agreement, federal income tax
withholding is not required until share issuance. However, a FICA and Medicare
withholding obligation triggers on the Vesting Date even if you have made a
voluntary deferral of the share issuance to a date later than the Vesting
Date). Fair Market Value of the shares shall be determined in accordance with
Section 23(m) of the Plan on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is
to be determined.



Voluntary Deferral of Share Issuance: You may voluntarily elect to defer the
issuance of the shares under this Award to a date after the Vesting Date that
is no later than the first day of the fiscal year following the date on which
you are no longer an employee of the Company (your “Voluntary Deferral of Share
Issuance Date”). You must make this election no later than the third
anniversary of the Date of Grant by filing a voluntary deferral election
request in a form acceptable to the Committee or its delegate.



This Agreement (including the Plan, which is incorporated by reference)
constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to
this Award, and supersedes all prior agreements or promises with respect to the
Award. Except as provided in the Plan, this Agreement may be amended only by a
