Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to grant the incentive cash award provided for herein (the “Incentive Cash Award”) to the Participant pursuant to the Plan and the terms set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

66098v1








(c)    If the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated due to death, Disability or Retirement, then the provisions of Section 13.6 of the Plan shall apply. 
(d)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control, the provisions of Section 13.7 of the Plan shall apply.  
3.    Restrictive Covenants.  The Company and its Subsidiaries operate in a highly sensitive and competitive commercial environment.  As part of their employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Participant will be exposed to highly confidential and sensitive information regarding the Company's and its Subsidiaries' business operations, including corporate strategy, pricing and other market information, know-how, trade secrets, and valuable customer, supplier, and employee relationships.  It is critical that the Company take all necessary steps to safeguard its legitimate protectable interests in such information and to prevent any of its competitors or any other persons from obtaining any such information.  Therefore, as consideration for the Company's agreement to grant the Incentive Cash Award to the Participant, the Participant shall agree to be bound by the following restrictive covenants:
(a)    Confidentiality.  The Participant acknowledges that the information, observations and data obtained by him or her while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries concerning the business or affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries ("Confidential Information") are the property of the Company or such Subsidiary.  Therefore, the Participant agrees that he or she shall not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for his or her own purposes any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Board, unless and to the extent that the aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of the Participant's acts or omissions.  The Participant shall deliver to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, at the termination of the Participant's employment, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information, Work Product (as defined below) or the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which he or she may then possess or have under his or her control.
(b)    Assignment of Inventions.  The Participant acknowledges that all inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, formulas, recipes, customer lists, and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by the Participant while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries ("Work Product") belong to the Company or such Subsidiary.  The Participant shall promptly disclose such Work Product to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the period of the Participant's employment) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).
(c)    Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.  At any time during the Participant's Non-Competition Period, the Participant shall not, for himself or herself or on behalf of any other 

3
66098v1






Person, participate in, directly or indirectly, any Competing Business in any country in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or licensees operates or conducts business as of such time (or with respect to the period after the date of the termination of the Participant's employment, as of such date); provided that, nothing in this sentence shall restrict the Participant from passive ownership of three (3) percent or less of the publicly traded securities of any Person.  During the Participant's employment with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and for 1 year thereafter, the Participant shall not (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or its Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire directly or through another entity any person who was an employee (other than clerical or administrative support personnel) of the Company or its Subsidiaries at any time during the Non-Competition Period or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Company or its Subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, making any negative statements or communications concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries); provided that, clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not apply with respect to any person solicited or employed after the date that is twelve (12) months after the date on which such person's employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated.
(d)    No Restriction on Earning a Living.  By his or her acceptance and/or acquisition of this Award, the Participant thereby acknowledges that the provisions of this Section 3 do not preclude the Participant from earning a livelihood, nor do they unreasonably impose limitations on the Participant's ability to earn a living.  In addition, the Participant thereby acknowledges that the potential harm to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries of non-enforcement of this Section 3 outweighs any harm to the Participant of enforcement (by injunction or otherwise) of this Section 3 against him.  If any portion of the provisions of this Section 3 is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction because its duration, territory, definition of activities covered, or definition of information covered is considered to be unreasonable in scope, the invalid or unenforceable term shall be redefined, or a new enforceable term provided, such that the intent of the Company and the Participant in agreeing to the provisions of this Section 3 will not be impaired and the provision in question shall be enforceable to the fullest extent of applicable law.
(e)    For purposes of this Section 3, the term “Non-Competition Period” for a Participant means (i) in the case of termination by the Company with Cause, the period of such Participant’s employment plus one (1) year after the date of such Participant’s termination of employment, (ii) in the case of resignation for any reason (including Retirement), the period of such Participant’s employment plus one (1) year after the date of such Participant’s termination of employment, and (iii) otherwise, the period of such Participant’s employment plus the greater of one (1) year after the date of such Participant’s termination of employment or the length of time, if any, for which the Participant receives (or is eligible to receive, where Participant declines or otherwise takes action to reject) in connection with such Participant’s termination severance benefits or other similar payments from the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to an agreement with such Participant, the severance policies of the Company and its Subsidiaries then in effect, at the

Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ election, or otherwise (or the length of time in terms of compensation used to determine the amount of such Participant’s severance benefits in the event such severance benefits are payable in a lump sum or on a schedule different than such length of time).  In no event shall any amount received by a Participant pursuant to any put or call provisions under the Stockholders Agreement constitute severance or other similar payments for purposes of this definition.  For purposes of this Section 3, the term “Competing Business” shall mean, with respect to any Participant at any time, any Person engaged wholly or in part (directly or through one or more Subsidiaries) in the retail sale or retail distribution (via stores, mail order, e-commerce, or similar means) of Competing Products, if more than one-third (1/3) of such Person’s gross sales for the twelve (12) month period preceding such time (or with respect to the period after the date of such Participant’s termination of employment, as of such date) are generated by engaging in such sale or distribution of Competing Products.  Without limiting the foregoing, Competing Businesses shall in any event include Wal-Mart, Sears (K-Mart), Target, Amazon.com, Buy Buy Baby, Mattel, Hasbro, Tesco, Carrefour, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates.  For purposes of this Section 3, the term “Competing Products” shall mean, with respect to any Participant at any time, (i) toys and games, (ii) video games, computer software for children, and electronic toys or games, (iii) juvenile or baby: products, apparel, equipment, furniture, or consumables, (iv) wheeled goods for children, and (v) any other product or group of related products that represents more than twenty (20) percent of the gross sales of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the twelve (12) month period preceding such time (or with respect to the period after such Participant’s termination of employment, as of such date).
4.    No Right to Continued Employment.  The granting of the Incentive Cash Award evidenced by this Agreement shall impose no obligation on the Company or any Affiliate to continue the employment of the Participant and shall not lessen or affect the Company’s or its Affiliate’s right to terminate the employment of such Participant.
5.    Transferability.  The Incentive Cash Award may not, at any time prior to becoming vested pursuant to Section 2, be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.
6.    Withholding.  The Participant may be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate, and the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold, any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the grant or vesting of the Incentive Cash Award, and to take such action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Committee to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes.

Vesting.   If the Participant's employment with the Company is terminated for any reason by either the Company or the Participant (other than death, Disability, Retirement, or in the event of a Change in Control), the Incentive Cash Award shall, to the extent not then vested, be forfeited by the Participant without consideration. The Participant has no right to compensation or damages in respect of the forfeiture of the Incentive Cash Award as a consequence of the termination of the Participant's employment by either the Company or the Participant.

Entire agreement and no reliance.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Participant and the Company, and supersedes and cancels any contract, representation, deed, arrangement, related condition, collateral arrangement, condition, warranty, indemnity or representation imposed, given or made by the Company or the Participant (or an agent of either of them) prior to entering into this Agreement.


CANADA

The Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that:



9
66098v1






(i) the grant of the Incentive Cash Award pursuant to the Agreement has been made by the Company to the Participant on a purely discretionary basis and shall NOT form part of the Participant’s contractual remuneration or other entitlements under the Participant’s employment arrangements with Toys “R” Us (China) Ltd. or otherwise;

GERMANY
By accepting this Incentive Cash Award, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Award is not to be treated as additional compensation for the Participant's work and performance for which the Participant already receives compensation and benefits in accordance with his or her employment agreement.  Rather, the purpose of the Award is to motivate and reward Participants for their continuous loyalty to the Company and its Affiliates and their contribution to the long-term success of the business.
This is a grant limited to the Incentive Cash Award and does not entitle the Participant to any grant of Incentive Cash Awards in future years.  Even if the Company will grant Incentive Cash Awards in future years this shall not establish a legal claim of the Participant for years after the respective grant. 
In any event, the Company reserves the right to amend the  Plan and this Agreement in case of changes in the economic development and circumstances of the Company or due to the decision of stockholders to grant Incentive Cash Awards or due to the performance of the Participant, unless 

10
66098v1






such an amendment is unreasonable for the Participant.  An amendment of the Plan will not result in a reduction of the average total compensation of the Participant in the last three years by more than 25%.
Any rights of the Participants under the German Act on Employee Inventions remain unaffected by this Agreement.


In the event that individual provisions of this Agreement are ineffective, the remaining regulations shall remain in effect.  In lieu of the invalid provision or as a remedy of the possible incompleteness of the Agreement, an appropriate valid provision, which the parties would have intended if they had known of the ineffectiveness or of the incompleteness of the Agreement and which corresponds either to the commercial effect of the invalid provision or comes as close to it as possible, shall replace the invalid one.


Data Privacy.  By accepting the Incentive Cash Award, the Participant hereby consents to the collection, use and transfer of personal data in electronic or other form, by and among the Company and any Affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

Nature of Grant.  In accepting the Incentive Cash Award, the Participant agrees that the grant of the Incentive Cash Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Incentive Cash Awards, or benefits in lieu of Incentive Cash Awards, even if Incentive Cash Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past.  The Participant further agrees that all decisions with respect to future grants under the Plan, if any, including, but not limited to, the level and type of Award which may be granted under the Plan, will be at the sole discretion of the Committee.  


The Participant agrees that the Incentive Cash Award is not part of normal or expected compensation for any purpose and no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from the forfeiture of the Incentive Cash Award resulting from the cessation of the Participant’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of law).


Tax Acknowledgment. The following provisions supplement Section 6 of the Agreement:


By accepting this Incentive Cash Award, and regardless of any action the Company or the Participant's employing company (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, National Insurance contributions, payment on account or other tax-related withholding due in connection with or otherwise related to the Incentive Cash Award acquired by the Participant or otherwise in connection with the participation of the Participant in the Plan (“Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participant's responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  


By accepting this Incentive Cash Award, the Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer: (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Incentive Cash Award, including but not limited to the grant, or vesting, of this Incentive Cash Award or any part of it; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Incentive Cash Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant's liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.  



17
66098v1






Further, if the Participant becomes subject to taxation in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable event, the Participant acknowledges by accepting the Incentive Cash Award that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.


Prior to the vesting of the Incentive Cash Award, or any other event or circumstance giving rise to Tax-Related Items, the Participant will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations for Tax-Related Items of the Company and/or the Employer.  


Without limitation to the above, the Company or any Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold, and the Participant shall be obliged to pay, the amount of any income tax and/or National Insurance contributions legally payable by the Participant   attributable to or payable in connection with or pursuant to the grant, or vesting, of the Incentive Cash Award or otherwise in connection with the Incentive Cash Award acquired by the Participant.
 
The Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Participant by withholding from the Participant's Incentive Cash Award, wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by the Company or the Employer or any Affiliate. 


The Incentive Cash Award may not be paid to the Participant upon vesting if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant's obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.


The Participant agrees that if the Employer or the Company does not withhold or otherwise collect the full amount of Tax-Related Items that the Participant owes on account of the occurrence of a taxable event in connection with the Incentive Cash Award (the “Chargeable Event”) from the Participant within 90 days after the Chargeable Event or such other period as required by U.K. law (the  “Due Date”), then the amount that should have been withheld or collected shall constitute a loan owed by the Participant to the Employer, effective on the Due Date.  The Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current Official Rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) and it will be immediately due and repayable by the Participant and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to above.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is an executive officer or director (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the provision above will not apply.  


The Participant also authorizes the Company to withhold the payment of cash upon vesting of the Incentive Cash Award unless and until the loan is repaid in full.
