     provide for the deferral of an Award in an Award Agreement or otherwise.
     Any such deferral may be in the form of installment payments or a future
     lump-sum payment. Any deferred payment, whether elected by the Participant
     or specified by the Award Agreement or the Committee, may be forfeited if
     and to the extent that the Award Agreement so provides.

          (c) DIVIDENDS AND INTEREST. Dividends or dividend equivalent rights
     may be extended to and made part of any Award denominated in Common Stock
     or units of Common Stock, subject to such terms, conditions and
     restrictions as the Committee may establish. The Committee may also
     establish rules and procedures for the crediting of interest on deferred
     cash payments and dividend equivalents for deferred payment denominated in
     Common Stock or units of Common Stock.

          (d) SUBSTITUTION OF AWARDS. At the discretion of the Committee, a
     Participant who has been granted an Employee Award may be offered an
     election to substitute an Employee Award for another Employee Award or
     Employee Awards of the same or different type, subject to the overall
     limits expressed in this Plan.

          (e) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Committee shall not be required to issue
     any fractional shares of Common Stock under this Plan. The Committee, in
     its sole discretion, may provide for the elimination of fractions for the
     settlement of fractions in cash.

     9.   OPTION EXERCISE. The price at which shares of Common Stock may be
purchased under an Option shall be paid in full at the time of exercise (a) in
cash or by check payable and acceptable to the Company, or (b) by tendering to
the Company shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant for at least six
months, if acquired pursuant to a Company stock option, such shares having an
aggregate Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise and tender that is not
greater than the Exercise Price for the shares with respect to which the Option
is being exercised, and by paying any remaining amount of the Exercise Price as
provided in (a) above (provided that the Committee may, upon confirming that the
Participant owns the number of shares being tendered, authorize the issuance of
a new certificate for the number of shares being acquired pursuant to the
exercise of the Option less the number of shares being tendered upon the
exercise and return to the Participant (or not require surrender of) the
certificate for the shares being tendered upon the exercise), or (c) by the
Participant delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice
together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the
Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the
Exercise Price and any required tax withholding amounts, provided that in the
event the Participant chooses to pay the Exercise Price and withholding taxes as
provided in (c) above, the Participant and the broker shall comply with such
procedures and enter into such agreements as the Committee may prescribe as a
condition of such payment procedure, or (d) by a combination of such payment
methods.

     10.  TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE. Upon the termination of
employment or service by a Participant, any unexercised, deferred or unpaid
Awards shall be treated as provided in the specific Award Agreement evidencing
the Award or, in the case of Director Awards, as provided in this Plan. Unless
otherwise specifically provided in the Award Agreement, each Award granted
pursuant to this Plan that is an Option shall immediately terminate to the
extent the Option is not vested (or does not become vested as a result of such
termination of employment or service) on the date the Participant terminates
employment or service with the Company or its Subsidiaries.

     11.  ACCELERATION UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, all conditions and/or restrictions relating to the
continued employment or service of a Participant and/or the achievement of
Performance Objectives with respect to the vesting and exercisability or full
entitlement to any Award shall immediately lapse upon a Change in Control.

     12.  ASSIGNABILITY. Unless otherwise permitted by the Committee, no
Award granted under this Plan shall be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or
otherwise alienated or hypothecated by a Participant other than by (a) will or
the laws of descent and distribution, or (b)



                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

a qualified domestic relations order. During the lifetime of a Participant, any
Award shall be exercisable only by him, or in the case of a Participant who is
mentally incapacitated, the Award shall be exercisable by his guardian or legal
representative. The Committee may prescribe and include in applicable Award
Agreements other restrictions on transfer. Any attempted assignment or transfer
in violation of this Section 12 shall be null and void. Upon the Participant's
death, the personal representative or other person entitled to succeed to the
rights of the Participant (the "Successor Participant") may exercise such
rights. A Successor Participant must furnish proof satisfactory to the Company
of his or her right to exercise the Award under the Participant's will or under
the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

          Subject to approval by the Committee in its sole discretion, other
than with respect to ISOs, all or a portion of the Awards granted to a
Participant under this Plan may be transferable by the Participant, to the
extent and only to the extent specified in such approval, to (a) the spouse,
children or grandchildren (including adopted children and stepchildren and
grandchildren) of the Participant ("Immediate Family Members"), (b) a trust or
trusts for the exclusive benefit of such Immediate Family Members and, if
applicable, the Participant, or (c) a partnership or partnerships in which such
Immediate Family Members and, if applicable, the Participant are the only
partners, provided that the Award Agreement pursuant to which such Awards are
granted (or an amendment thereto) must expressly provide for transferability in
a manner consistent with this Section. Subsequent transfers of transferred
Awards shall be prohibited except by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, unless such transfers are made to the original Participant or a
person to whom the original Participant could have made a transfer in the manner
described herein. No transfer shall be effective unless and until written notice
of such transfer is provided to the Committee, in the form and manner prescribed
by the Committee. Following transfer, any such Awards shall continue to be
subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to
transfer, and except as otherwise provided herein, the term "Participant" shall
be deemed to refer to the transferee. No transferred Options shall be
exercisable unless arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made to
satisfy any tax withholding obligations the Company may have with respect to the
Options. The consequences of termination of employment or service shall continue
to be applied with respect to the original Participant, following which the
Awards shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent and for the
periods specified in this Plan and the Award Agreement.

     13.  ADJUSTMENTS.

          (a) The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any manner
     the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize
     (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalization, reorganizations or other
     changes in the ownership of the Company or its business, (ii) any merger or
     consolidation of the Company, (iii) any issue of bonds, debentures or other
     obligations, (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (v) any
     sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or (vi) any
     other Company act or proceeding of any kind, whether or not of a character
     similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above.

          (b) In the event of any Common Stock distribution or split,
     recapitalization, extraordinary distribution, merger, consolidation,
     combination or exchange of shares of Common Stock or similar change or upon
     the occurrence of any other event that the



                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12
     Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, (i) the number of
     shares of Common Stock reserved under this Plan and covered by outstanding
     Awards, (ii) the Exercise Price in respect of such Awards, and (iii) the
     kind of shares covered thereby (including shares of another issuer) shall
     be adjusted as appropriate.

          (c) In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of
     property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Committee
     shall be authorized (i) to issue or assume Awards by means of substitution
     of new Awards, as appropriate, for previously issued Awards or to assume
     previously issued Awards as part of such adjustment, or (ii) to cancel
     Awards that are Options or SARs and give the Participants who are the
     holders of such Awards notice and opportunity to exercise for thirty (30)
     days prior to such cancellation.

          (d) The Committee, in its sole discretion and without the consent of
     the Participant, may amend (i) any stock-based Award to reflect a change in
     accounting rules required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, and
     (ii) any Award that is not intended to meet the requirements of Code
     Section 162(m), to reflect a significant event that the Committee, in its
     sole discretion, believes to be appropriate to reflect the original intent
     in the grant of the Award.

     14.  TAX WITHHOLDING. The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable
taxes from any Award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or vesting of
cash or shares of Common Stock under this Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or
number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of taxes
required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion
of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. The
Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied by the transfer to the
Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the Award
with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common Stock are
used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Fair
Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made.

     15.  AMENDMENTS OR TERMINATION. The Company may amend, alter or discontinue
this Plan, except that (a) no amendment or alteration that would impair the
rights of any Participant under any Award that he has been granted shall be made
without his consent, and (b) no amendment or alteration shall be effective prior
to approval by the Company's stockholders to the extent such approval is
determined by the Board to be required by applicable laws, regulations or
exchange requirements.

     16.  RESTRICTIONS. No shares of Common Stock or other form of payment shall
be issued with respect to any Award unless the Company shall be satisfied, based
on the advice of its counsel, that such issuance will be in compliance with
applicable federal and state securities laws. The Award Agreement may include
provisions for the repurchase by the Company of Common Stock acquired pursuant
to an Award and repurchase of the Participant's Option rights.

     17.  UNFUNDED PLAN. Insofar as it provides for Awards of cash, Common Stock
or rights thereto, this Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts
may be established with respect to Participants who are entitled to cash, Common
Stock or rights thereto under this Plan, any such accounts shall be used merely
as a bookkeeping convenience. The Company shall not be required to segregate any
assets that may at any time be represented by cash,



                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13

Common Stock or rights thereto, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing
for such segregation, nor shall the Company, the Board or the Committee be
deemed to be a trustee of any cash, Common Stock or rights thereto to be granted
under this Plan. Any liability or obligation of the Company to any Participant
with respect to a grant of cash, Common Stock or rights thereto under this Plan
shall be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created by
this Plan and any Award Agreement, and no such liability or obligation of the
Company shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any
property of the Company. None of the Company, the Board or the Committee shall
be required to give any security or bond for the performance of any obligation
that may be created by this Plan.

     18.  INDEMNIFICATION. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless any
member of the Board or the Compensation Committee and other individuals,
including Employees and Directors, performing services on behalf of the
Committee, against any liability, cost or expense arising as a result of any
claim asserted by any person or entity under the laws of any state or of the
United States with respect to any action or failure to act of such individuals
taken in connection with this Plan, except claims or liabilities arising on
account of the willful misconduct or bad faith of such Board member,
Compensation Committee member or individual.

     19.  MISCELLANEOUS. The granting of any Award shall not impose upon the
Company any obligation to maintain any Participant as an Employee or a Director
and shall not diminish the power of the Company to terminate any Participant's
employment or service at any time.

     20.  GOVERNING LAW. This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken
pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by mandatory provisions of
the Code or the securities laws of the United States, shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.

     21.  EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN. This Plan shall be effective as of March 7,
2001, subject to approval of this Plan by the stockholders of the Company within
one year of the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. If the stockholders of
the Company should fail to so approve this Plan within one year of the adoption
date, this Plan shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect
and all grants of Awards hereunder shall be null and void.


                                    Attested to by the Secretary of Administaff,
                                    Inc., as adopted by the Board of Directors
                                    effective as of March 7, 2001.
