        If
an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares which were subject thereto, if any, shall become available for future grant or
sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). Shares of Restricted Stock that are either forfeited or repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price shall become available for
future grant or sale under the Plan. Shares underlying a forfeited Stock Unit Award shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. Shares that are tendered, whether by physical
delivery or by attestation, to the Company by the Awardee as full or partial payment of the exercise price of any Award or in payment of any applicable withholding for federal, state, city, local or
foreign taxes incurred in connection with any Award shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan; provided, however, that the total number of Shares so tendered from which Incentive
Stock Options may be granted shall not exceed 250,000,000. 


4.     ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN.  



	(a)
	Procedure.


 
	(i)
	 Multiple Administrative Bodies.    The Plan may be administered by different Committees with respect to different groups
of Participants.



	(ii)
	Section 162.    To the extent that the Administrator determines it to be desirable to
qualify Awards granted hereunder as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Plan shall be administered by a Committee of two or more "outside
directors" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.



	(iii)
	Rule 16-3.    To the extent desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as
exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act ("Rule 16b-3"), the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be structured to satisfy the requirements
for exemption under Rule 16b-3.



	(iv)
	Other Administration.    The Board may delegate to the Executive Committee of the Board (the
"Executive Committee") the power to approve Awards to Participants who are not (A) subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or (B) at the time of such approval, "covered
employees" under Section 162(m) of the Code.



	(v)
	Delegation of Authority for the Day-to-Day Administration of the
Plan.    Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or applicable rules of a stock exchange, the Board or any of its committees as shall be administering the
Plan may delegate to one or more individuals the day-to-day administration of the Plan and any of the functions assigned to it in this Plan. The delegation may be revoked at
any time.






	(b)
	Powers of the Administrator.    Subject to the provisions of the Plan, and in the case of a
Committee, subject to the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:



	(i)
	to
select the Participants to whom Awards may be granted hereunder;



	(ii)
	to
determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Award granted hereunder;



	(iii)
	to
approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan; 






3







 


	(iv)
	to
determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but
are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when an Award may be exercised (which may or may not be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture
restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;



	(v)
	to
suspend the right to exercise Awards during any blackout period that is necessary or desirable to comply with the requirements of Applicable Laws and to
extend the Award exercise period for an equal period of time;



	(vi)
	to
construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan;



	(vii)
	to
adopt rules and procedures relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and
procedures. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized (A) to adopt the rules and procedures regarding the conversion of local currency,
withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates which vary with local requirements, (B) to adopt sub-plans and Plan addenda as the Administrator deems desirable, to
accommodate foreign tax laws, regulations and practice;



	(viii)
	to
prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans and Plan
addenda;



	(ix)
	to
modify or amend each Award, including the discretionary authority to extend the post-termination exercisability period of Options longer
than is otherwise provided for in the Plan, provided, however, that any such amendment is subject to Section 15(c) of the Plan and may not impair any outstanding Award unless agreed to in
writing by the Awardee;



	(x)
	to
allow Awardees to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued pursuant to an Award that
number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be
withheld is to be determined. All elections by an Awardee to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or
advisable;



	(xi)
	to
authorize conversion or substitution under the Plan of any or all outstanding stock options or outstanding stock appreciation rights held by service
providers of an entity acquired by the Company (the "Conversion Options"). Any conversion or substitution shall be effective as of the close of the merger or acquisition. The Conversion Options may be
Nonstatutory Stock Options or Incentive Stock Options, as determined by the Administrator; provided, however, that with respect to the conversion of stock appreciation rights in the acquired entity,
the Conversion Options shall be Nonstatutory Stock Options. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator at the time of conversion or substitution, all Conversion Options shall have the same terms
and conditions as Options generally granted by the Company under the Plan;



	(xii)
	to
authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the
Administrator;



	(xiii)
	to
make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan and any Award granted hereunder. 




4







 



	(c)
	Effect of Administrator's Decision.    The Administrator's decisions, determinations and
interpretations shall be final and binding on all Awardees. 




5.     ELIGIBILITY.  


        Awards may be granted to Participants, provided, however, that Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees of the Company or any Subsidiary. 


6.     LIMITATIONS.  



	(a)
	Each
Option shall be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such
designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Awardee during any calendar year
(under all plans of the Company and any Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options
shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.



	(b)
	For
purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no leave of absence may exceed ninety (90) days, unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is
guaranteed by statute or contract. If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not so guaranteed, on the 91st day of such leave an Awardee's employment with
the Company shall be deemed terminated for Incentive Stock Option purposes and any Incentive Stock Option held by the Awardee shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be
treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option three (3) months thereafter.



	(c)
	No
Participant shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award and the grant of any Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to
continue in the employ of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Further, the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates expressly reserve the right, at any time, to dismiss a Participant at any
time without liability or any claim under the Plan, except as provided herein or in any Award Agreement entered into hereunder.



	(d)
	The
following limitations shall apply to grants of Awards:



	(i)
	No
Participant shall be granted, in any fiscal year of the Company, Options to purchase more than 10,000,000 Shares.



	(ii)
	In
connection with his or her initial service, a Participant may be granted Options to purchase up to an additional 10,000,000 Shares which shall not count
against the limit set forth in subsection (i) above.



	(iii)
	If
an Option is cancelled in the same fiscal year of the Company in which it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described in
Section 14), the cancelled Option will be counted against the limits set forth in subsections (i) and (ii) above.



	(iv)
	The
maximum aggregate number of Shares underlying Stock Awards that may be granted under this Plan is twenty million (20,000,000) Shares.



	(v)
	The
maximum aggregate number of Shares underlying Non-Statutory Stock Options with an exercise price of less than Fair Market Value on the Grant
Date that may be granted under Section 9(a)(ii) of this Plan is thirty million (30,000,000) Shares.



	(vi)
	The
foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in
Section 14. 






5







 





7.     TERM OF PLAN.  


        Subject to Section 20 of the Plan, the Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten
(10) years from the later of the date the Plan or any amendment to add shares to the Plan is adopted by the Board unless terminated earlier under Section 15 of the Plan. 


8.     TERM OF AWARD.  


        The term of each Award shall be determined by the Administrator and stated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Option, the term shall be ten
(10) years from the Grant Date or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement; provided that the term may be 101/2 years in certain jurisdictions outside the
United States as determined by the Administrator. 


9.     OPTION EXERCISE PRICE AND CONSIDERATION.  



	(a)
	Exercise Price.    The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise
of an Option shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following:



	(i)
	In
the case of an Incentive Stock Option the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date.



	(ii)
	In
the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Fair Market
Value per Share on the Grant Date. In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the per
Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date.



	(iii)
	Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at the Administrator's discretion, Conversion Options (as defined in Section 4(b)(x)) may be granted with a per
Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date and shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 6(d)(v) above.



	(iv)
	Other
than in connection with a change in the Company's capitalization (as described in Section 14(a)), Options may not be repriced, replaced,
regranted through cancellation or modified without shareowner approval if the effect of such repricing, replacement, regrant or modification would be to reduce the exercise price of such Incentive
Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options.






	(b)
	Vesting Period and Exercise Dates.    At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator shall
fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and shall determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised.



	(c)
	Form of Consideration.    The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration
for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the Grant Date.
Acceptable forms of consideration may include:



	(i)
	cash;



	(ii)
	check
or wire transfer (denominated in U.S. Dollars);



	(iii)
	other
Shares which (A) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Awardee for more than six months on the
date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised; 






6







 


	(iv)
	consideration
received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan;



	(v)
	any
combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or



	(vi)
	such
other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws. 




7













 




































 10.   EXERCISE OF OPTION.  



	(a)
	Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareowner.    Any Option granted hereunder shall be
exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the respective Award Agreement. No Option may be
exercised during any leave of absence other than an approved personal or medical leave with an employment guarantee upon return. An Option shall continue to vest during any authorized leave of absence
and such Option may be exercised to the extent vested upon the Awardee's return to active employment status. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 





An
Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives (i) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Award Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the
Option; (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the related Option is exercised; and (iii) with respect to Nonstatutory Stock Options, payment of all applicable
withholding taxes due upon such exercise. 


Shares
issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Awardee or, if requested by the Awardee, in the name of the Awardee and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as
evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareowner shall
exist with respect to the Shares subject to an Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised.
No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 14 of the Plan. 


Exercising
an Option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option
is exercised.  



	(b)
	Termination of Employment.    Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator in the Award
Agreement, if an Awardee ceases to be an Employee, other than as a result of circumstances described in Sections 10(c), (d), (e) and (f) below, the Awardee's Option, whether
vested or unvested, shall terminate immediately upon the Awardee's termination. On the date of the Awardee's termination of employment, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of his or her Option
shall revert to the Plan. If, prior to termination of employment, the Awardee does not exercise his or her vested Option, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert
to the Plan.



	(c)
	Disability or Retirement of Awardee.    Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator in the
Award Agreement, if an Awardee ceases to be an Employee as a result of the Awardee's total and permanent disability or retirement due to age, in accordance with the Company's or its Subsidiaries'
retirement policy, all unvested Options shall immediately vest and the Awardee may exercise his or her Option within three (3) years of the date of such disability or retirement for a
Nonstatutory Stock Option; within three (3) months of the date of such disability or retirement for an Incentive Stock Option; or if earlier, the expiration of the term of such Option. If the
Awardee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.



	(d)
	Death of Awardee.    Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, if
an Awardee dies while an Employee, all unvested Options shall immediately vest and all Options may be exercised for one (1) year following the Awardee's death. The 



8







 


Option
may be exercised by the beneficiary designated by the Awardee (as provided in Section 16), the executor or administrator of the Awardee's estate or, if none, by the person(s) entitled to
exercise the Option under the Awardee's will or the laws of descent or distribution. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares
covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.  



	(e)
	Voluntary Severance Incentive Program.    If an Awardee ceases to be an Employee as a result of
participation in the Company's or its Subsidiaries' voluntary severance incentive program approved by the Board or Executive Committee, all unvested Options shall immediately vest and all outstanding
Options shall be exercisable for three (3) months following the Awardee's termination (or such other period of time as provided for by the Administrator) or, if earlier, the expiration of the
term of such Option. If, after termination, of Awardee's employment the Awardee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered
by such Option shall revert to the Plan.



	(f)
	Divestiture.    If an Employee ceases to be a Participant because of a divestiture of the Company,
the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, make such Employee's outstanding Options fully vested and exercisable and provide that such Options remain exercisable for a period of time to be
determined by the Administrator. The determination of whether a divestiture will occur shall be made by the Administrator in its sole discretion. If, after the close of the divestiture, the Awardee
does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified therein, the Option shall terminate and the shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.



	(g)
	Buyout Provisions.    At any time, the Administrator may, but shall not be required to, authorize
the Company to offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an Award previously granted based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Awardee in
connection with such offer. 




11.   STOCK AWARDS.  



	(a)
	General.    Stock Awards may be issued either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with other
Awards granted under the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer a Stock Award under the Plan, it shall advise the Awardee in writing or electronically, by means of an Award
Agreement, of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of Shares that the Awardee shall be entitled to receive or purchase, the price to be paid, if any, and,
if applicable, the time within which the Awardee must accept such offer. The offer shall be accepted by execution of an Award Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator. The Administrator
will require that all Shares subject to a right of repurchase or forfeiture be held in escrow until such repurchase right or risk of forfeiture lapses.



	(b)
	Forfeiture.    Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Award Agreement shall provide
for the forfeiture of the unvested Stock Award upon the Awardee ceasing to be an Employee except as provided below in Sections 11(c), (d) and (e). To the extent that the Awardee
purchased Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Award, the Company shall have a right to repurchase the unvested Common Stock at the original price paid by the Awardee upon Awardee ceasing to be a
Participant for any reason, except as provided below in Sections 11(c), (d) and (e).



	(c)
	Disability or Retirement of Awardee.    Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator in the
Award Agreement, if an Awardee ceases to be an Employee as a result of the Awardee's total and permanent disability or retirement due to age, in accordance with the Company's or 



9







 


its
Subsidiaries' retirement policy, the Award shall continue to vest, provided the following conditions are met: 


	(i)
	The
Awardee shall not render services for any organization or engage directly or indirectly in any business which, in the opinion of the Administrator,
competes with, or is in conflict with the interest of, the Company. The Awardee shall be free, however, to purchase as an investment or otherwise stock or other securities of such organizations as
long as they are listed upon a recognized securities exchange or traded over-the-counter, or as long as such investment does not represent a substantial investment to the
Awardee or a significant (greater than 10%) interest in the particular organization. For the purposes of this subsection, a company (other than a Subsidiary) which is engaged in the business of
producing, leasing or selling products or providing services of the type now or at any time hereafter made or provided by the Company shall be deemed to compete with the Company;



	(ii)
	The
Awardee shall not, without prior written authorization from the Company, use in other than the Company's business, any confidential information or
material relating to the business of the Company, either during or after employment with the Company;



	(iii)
	The
Awardee shall disclose promptly and assign to the Company all right, title and interest in any invention or idea, patentable or not, made or conceived
by the Awardee during employment by the Company, relating in any manner to the actual or anticipated business, research or development work of the Company and shall do anything reasonably necessary to
enable the Company to secure a patent where appropriate in the United States and in foreign countries; and



	(iv)
	An
Awardee retiring due to age shall render, as a Consultant and not as an Employee, such advisory or consultative services to the Company as shall be
reasonably requested by the Board or the Executive Committee in writing from time to time, consistent with the state of the retired Awardee's health and any employment or other activities in which
such Awardee may be engaged. For purposes of this Plan, the Awardee shall not be required to devote a major portion of time to such services and shall be entitled to reimbursement for any reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the performance of such services.






	(d)
	Death of Awardee.    Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, if
an Awardee dies while an Employee, the Stock Award shall immediately vest and all forfeiture provisions and repurchase rights shall lapse as to a prorated number of shares determined by dividing the
number of whole months since the Grant Date by the number of whole months between the Grant Date and the date that the Stock Award would have fully vested (as provided for in the Award Agreement). The
vested portion of the Stock Award shall be delivered to the beneficiary designated by the Awardee (as provided in Section 16), the executor or administrator of the Awardee's estate or, if none,
by the person(s) entitled to receive the vested Stock Award under the Awardee's will or the laws of descent or distribution.



	(e)
	Voluntary Severance Incentive Program.    If an Awardee ceases to be an Employee as a result of
participation in the Company's or its Subsidiaries' voluntary severance incentive program approved by the Board or Executive Committee, the Stock Award shall immediately vest and all forfeiture
provisions and repurchase rights shall lapse as to a prorated number of shares determined by dividing the number of whole years since the Grant Date by the number of whole years between the Grant Date
and the date that the Stock Award would have fully vested (as provided for in the Award Agreement). 



10







 



	(f)
	Rights as a Shareowner.    Unless otherwise provided for by the Administrator, the Awardee shall
have the rights equivalent to those of a shareowner and shall be a shareowner only after Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized
transfer agent of the Company) to the Awardee. 






12.   CASH AWARDS.  


        Cash Awards may be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with other Awards granted under the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will
offer a Cash Award, it shall advise the Awardee in writing or electronically, by means of an Award Agreement, of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the Cash Award. 



13.   NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF AWARDS.  


        Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than
by beneficiary designation, will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Awardee, only by the Awardee. If the Administrator makes an Award
transferable, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.  


	14.
	ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION, DISSOLUTION, MERGER OR ASSET SALE.



	(a)
	Changes in Capitalization.    Subject to any required action by the shareowners of the Company,
the number and kind of shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Award, and the number and kind of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to
which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Award, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each such
outstanding Award, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number or kind of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock
dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the
Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected without receipt of consideration." Such adjustment shall be made by
the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities
convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award.



	(b)
	Dissolution or Liquidation.    In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, the Administrator shall notify each Awardee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for an Option to
be fully vested and exercisable until ten (10) days prior to such transaction. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any restrictions on any Award shall lapse prior to the
transaction, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Award will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed transaction.



	(c)
	Merger or Asset Sale.    In the event there is a change of control of the Company, as determined
by the Board, the Board may, in its discretion, (A) provide for the assumption or substitution of, or adjustment to, each outstanding Award; (B) accelerate the vesting of

Options
and terminate any restrictions on Cash Awards or Stock Awards; and (C) provide for the cancellation of Awards for a cash payment to the Awardee. 





15.   AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.  



	(a)
	Amendment and Termination.    The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the
Plan.



	(b)
	Shareowner Approval.    The Company shall obtain shareowner approval of any Plan amendment to the
extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.



	(c)
	Effect of Amendment or Termination.    No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the
Plan shall impair the rights of any Award, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Awardee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Awardee and the Company.
Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 




16.   DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.  



	(a)
	An
Awardee may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive the Awardee's rights pursuant to Awardee's Award or the Awardee may
include his or her Awards in an omnibus beneficiary designation for all benefits under the Plan. To the extent that Awardee has completed a designation of beneficiary while employed with
Hewlett-Packard Company, such beneficiary designation shall remain in effect with respect to any Award hereunder until changed by the Awardee.



	(b)
	Such
designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Awardee at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of an Awardee and in the absence of a
beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Awardee's death, the Company shall allow the executor or administrator of the estate of the Awardee to exercise the
Award, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may allow the spouse or one or more dependents or relatives of the
Awardee to exercise the Award. 




17.   LEGAL COMPLIANCE.  


        Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option or Stock Award unless the exercise of such Option or Stock Award and the issuance and delivery of
such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. 


18.   INABILITY TO OBTAIN AUTHORITY.  


        To the extent the Company is unable to or the Administrator deems it infeasible to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority
is deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, the Company shall be relieved of
any liability with respect to the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 



19.   RESERVATION OF SHARES.  


        The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements
of the Plan.

20.   SHAREOWNER APPROVAL.  



        The Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareowners of the Company within twelve (12) months of the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareowner approval
shall be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws. 


21.   NOTICE.  


        Any written notice to the Company required by any provisions of this Plan shall be addressed to the Secretary of the Company and shall be effective when received. 



22.   GOVERNING LAW.  


        This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of the state
of Delaware. 


23.   UNFUNDED PLAN.  


        Insofar as it provides for Awards, the Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may be established with respect to Participants who are granted
Awards of Shares under this Plan, any such accounts will be used merely as a bookkeeping convenience. Except for the holding of Restricted Stock in escrow pursuant to Section 11, the Company
shall not be required to segregate any assets which may at any time be represented by Awards, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such segregation, nor shall the Company nor the
Administrator be deemed to be a trustee of stock or cash to be awarded under the Plan. Any liability of the Company to any Awardee with respect to an Award shall be based solely upon any contractual
obligations which may be created by the Plan; no such obligation of the Company shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any property of the Company. Neither the Company nor
the Administrator shall be required to give any security or bond for the performance of any obligation which may be created by this Plan.
