
    
    For CEO, COO, CFO and CTO, earning the second 25% is predicated on meeting Company
Stretch operating income targets.
    
    Stretch payment is binary; there are no decelerators associated with the stretch
payment.
 Program Details:
 
    
    Each step in the program requires achievement of 100% of the prior step in order to be
eligible for the full bonus payment. If an area achieves 85% of their base operating
target, then the Area General Manager would receive their decelerated base bonus ONLY.
    
    Targets are set annually based upon the approved Avanade budget and do not change
unless approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors, as recommended
by the CEO and the CFO. It is possible that the budget may change due to an acquisition
(or divestiture) or other significant change in the business. In these instances, the
target may be adjusted to reflect the change in business.

 Fiscal Year Change Impact
 
    
    FY08 Bonus programs will be calculated on the basis of 11 months of salary for
all programs based on 11 months of operating income performance. (October 1, 2007 to
August 31, 2008). Your bonus will be based on your annual base salary priorto September
1, 2008.
    
    11 month salary example:
 
    
    Base salary equals 200,000 for the year
    
    FY08 bonus eligible salary = 11/12th or 183,333
    
    The bonus eligible salary is the amount that will be used in the
calculation of the final bonus
    
    Only your annual salary will be pro-rated, your base bonus
opportunity percentage will remain unchanged. E.g if your base bonus opportunity
is 25% per annum, and your 11 month salary is 183,333  your bonus would be
183,333 x 25% = 45,833.
    
    Note: All figures are for example purposes and rounded to the nearest
whole number.
