URS CORPORATION







Restated Incentive Compensation Plan


2014 Plan Year Summary








	
I.  

	
Plan Objectives







 


The URS Corporation Restated Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to provide rewards to individuals who make a significant contribution to the financial performance of URS Corporation and its Infrastructure & Environment, Federal Services, Energy & Construction and Oil & Gas Divisions (collectively, the “Company”) during each fiscal year (a “Plan Year”).  Among other things, the Plan is intended to:








	
·  

	
Help key employees to focus on achieving specific financial targets;













	
·  

	
Reinforce teamwork;













	
·  

	
Provide significant award potential for achieving outstanding performance; and













	
·  

	
Enhance the Company’s ability to attract and retain highly talented and competent people.












This document is only a summary regarding the application of the Plan with respect to the 2014 Plan Year.  For complete information regarding the Plan (including defined terms not defined in this Summary document), participants should refer to the Plan document.  Each Award provided by the Plan constitutes a Performance Cash Award (as defined in the URS Corporation 2008 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “EIP”)) and will be governed by the provisions of the EIP, the Plan, and any documents regarding the application of the Plan with respect to a particular Plan Year (including this summary).  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the EIP, the Plan and any such documents, the provisions of the EIP will control.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the EIP, the Plan or any such documents and the provisions of a Designated Participant’s employment agreement, the provisions of the Designated Participant’s employment agreement will control.








	
II.  

	
General Plan Description







 




	
A.  

	
Eligibility







 




The Plan provides an opportunity for employees to earn cash Awards based on achievement of Company and individual Performance Goals during a Plan Year.  Eligible participants are classified in one of two categories:








	
1.  

	
“Designated Participants” are key employees who have the potential to significantly impact the Company’s success; or








	
2.  

	
”Non-Designated Participants” are employees who demonstrate outstanding individual effort and results during the year.  Awards to this group of employees are paid from a discretionary bonus pool.












 




  





1











  






 


Except as noted in this paragraph, to be eligible to receive an Award under the Plan, participants must be employed by the Company at the end of the Plan Year.  However, if the employment of a Designated Participant is terminated prior to the end of a Plan Year due to the Designated Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement (as such terms are defined in the EIP), the Designated Participant (or the Designated Participant’s heirs in the case of death) will be eligible to receive a pro-rata Award based on the time the Designated Participant was employed by the Company and the Performance Goals achieved.  If a Designated Participant’s employment is terminated for any other reason prior to the end of a Plan Year (whether voluntary or involuntary), the Designated Participant will not receive an Award.







New hires (employees who join the Company during a Plan Year after the Performance Goals for the Plan Year have been established) who are identified as Designated Participants must have at least three months of service and be employed by the Company at the end of the Plan Year to be eligible to receive a pro-rata Award based on the time the Designated Participant was employed by the Company and the Performance Goals achieved (except in the case of death, Disability or Retirement, as described above).  New hires who are Covered Employees are subject to certain additional requirements set forth in the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of a Designated Participant’s employment agreement will supersede the terms and conditions of the Plan.







Pursuant to the administrative authority provided to the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) under the Plan, the Committee has determined that an employee who is identified as a Designated Participant for the Plan Year after the Performance Goals for the Plan Year have been established, but who joined the Company prior to the Plan Year, shall be treated as a new hire for purposes of the Plan and shall be subject to the requirements described above with respect to new hires.








	
B.  

	
Performance Goals







 


Each Plan Year, the Committee establishes, or authorizes the establishment within specified parameters of, specific Performance Goals for the Company and for Designated Participants, including weightings of the Performance Goals, by the business unit or units in which the Designated Participant is expected to have the most direct impact.  The Performance Goals may be based on any one of, or combination of, or any ratio between two or more of the Performance Criteria set forth in the Plan, as they may be specifically defined by the Committee for each Plan Year.







In addition, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in the method of calculating the attainment of Performance Goals for the Plan Year, as authorized under the EIP and set forth in the Plan.

C.  

	
Target Bonus Pool







 


Each Plan Year, the Committee identifies a Target Bonus Pool as part of the Company’s financial planning process.  The Target Bonus Pool is the sum of all anticipated Awards for Designated Participants and Non-Designated Participants, and is further subdivided into Target Bonus Pools for the corporate-level participants, for the participants in each of the Company’s Divisions, and further for the participants in each business unit(s) for which Performance Goals are established.  The Actual Bonus Pool may be greater or less than the Target Bonus Pool depending on the Company’s actual performance relative to the Performance Goals established for a Plan Year.


 



	
D.  

	
Target Award Percentage







 


Each Plan Year, the Committee assigns to, or authorizes the assignment to, each Designated Participant a Target Award Percentage, expressed as a percentage of Base Salary, based on his or her anticipated contributions to the Company.








	
III.  

	
2014 Plan Year







 



	
A.  

	
Performance Criteria Definitions







 


The Committee selected and defined Performance Criteria as follows for the 2014 Plan Year for application to the Performance Goals established for the Section 16 Officers (as defined in the Plan):








	
1.  

	
GAAP Earnings Per Share.  “GAAP Earnings Per Share” shall mean the earnings per share of the Company for the 2014 fiscal year.







 



	
2.  

	
Free Cash Flow.  “Free Cash Flow” shall mean the Company’s net cash from operating activities for the 2014 fiscal year, less capital expenditures.







 



	
3.  

	
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC).  “Return on Invested Capital” shall mean the Company’s after-tax operating income for the 2014 fiscal year, divided by the sum of average net debt and total URS stockholders’ equity for the 2014 fiscal year.







 


In each case, such Performance Criteria are defined, as applicable: (i) as being determined under generally accepted accounting principles, (ii) as being adjusted for any material and objectively determinable impacts of the items specified in the Plan that were not reflected in the 2014 financial plan approved by the Board, (iii) to exclude the impacts of any Canadian versus U.S. foreign exchange charges arising from the $100M intercompany note , and (iv) as being calculated after all bonuses are accrued and assumed to have been paid in full.







The Committee also selected and defined additional Performance Criteria for the 2014 Plan Year for application to the Performance Goals established for Designated Participants other than the Section 16 Officers, in addition to or in lieu of the Performance Criteria specified above, including the following:

4.  

	
URS Operating Income (UOI).  “URS Operating Income” shall mean the operating income of the Division or other business unit(s) for which a Designated Participant has accountability as determined under generally accepted accounting principles, as adjusted to exclude the pre-tax impacts of any non-controlling minority interests, and as also adjusted for any material and objectively determinable impacts of the items specified in the Plan that were not reflected in the 2014 financial plan approved by the Board.  Operating Income for a Division or other business unit will be calculated after all bonuses measured by the performance of that Division or unit are accrued and assumed to have been paid in full.







 



	
5.  

	
Consolidated URS Operating Income (Consolidated UOI).  “Consolidated URS Operating Income” shall mean the consolidated total of the URS Operating Income, as defined above, of each of the Infrastructure & Environment, Federal Services, Energy & Construction, and Oil& Gas Divisions.







 



	
6.  

	
Average Day Sales Outstanding. “Average Day Sales Outstanding” shall mean the average of the twelve (12) months of Day Sales Outstanding.  “Day Sales Outstanding” or “DSOs” shall mean ninety (90) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of billed accounts receivable plus unbilled accounts receivable minus billings in excess of cost, and the denominator of which is the sum of the last three (3) months of revenues, with respect to the business unit(s) for which a Designated Participant has accountability.  DSOs shall be calculated monthly.







 



	
7.  

	
Working Capital Days Outstanding (WCDO).  “Working Capital Days Outstanding” or “WCDO” shall mean the average of the four quarterly WCDOs with respect to the business unit(s) for which a Designated Participant has accountability. The quarterly WCDOs shall be calculated by dividing the average Working Capital of the business unit(s) for the quarter (the sum of the Working Capital of the business unit(s) at the end of each of the three months during the quarter divided by 3) by the annualized daily Revenue for the business unit(s) (Revenue for the business unit(s) during the quarter times 4 divided by 365).  Working Capital is defined as current assets (excluding foreign cash, corporate unrestricted cash and deferred taxes) less current liabilities (excluding costs to complete, deferred taxes and the restructuring reserve).







 



	
8.  

	
Revenues.  “Revenues” shall mean the consolidated revenue of the Company, or of the relevant business unit(s) for which a Designated Participant has accountability, as determined under generally accepted accounting principles.

10.

11.  

	
Safety Record.  “Safety Record” shall mean the total reportable incident rate as defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).







 



	
B.  

	
Performance Goals







 


For the 2014 Plan Year, the Committee established as a prerequisite to bonus payments calculated on the basis of Division Performance Goals that the respective Division meet a minimum URS Operating Income threshold after accruing for all such Division bonuses.   The Committee also established as a prerequisite to bonus payments calculated on the basis of Consolidated Division Performance Goals that the Company meet a minimum Consolidated URS Operating Income threshold after accruing for all Division and URS Corporation bonuses.  Bonuses otherwise payable are reduced pro rata to the extent necessary, down to zero, to satisfy the minimum respective URS Operating Income or Consolidated URS Operating Income thresholds, with the result that Designated Participants and non-Designated Participants may only receive bonuses if and to the extent that the Divisions earn their respective URS Operating Income in excess of the thresholds.







The Committee established, or authorized the establishment of, primary business unit Performance Goals and individual Performance Goals for Designated Participants, other than Section 16 Officers, by the business unit where the Designated Participant is expected to have the most direct impact as follows:

IV.  

	
Determination of Awards







 


Awards to Designated Participants, other than Section 16 Officers, will be dependent upon satisfying one or more of the following criteria: (1) the Company achieving its minimum Consolidated URS Operating Income threshold; (2) the Division achieving its minimum URS Operating Income threshold; (3) the relevant business unit(s) achieving its minimum Performance Goals, and (3) the Designated Participant achieving his/her individual Performance Goal(s).







A Designated Participant’s Award will be calculated based on the percentage of his/her Performance Goal(s) achieved, multiplied by his/her Target Award Percentage and by his/her Base Salary earned during the Plan Year.  Pursuant to the administrative authority provided to the Committee under the Plan, the Committee has determined that a Designated Participant’s Base Salary for the Plan Year shall (i) be interpreted to mean the Designated Participant’s Base Salary for the calendar year corresponding to the Plan Year and (ii) any salary changes which occur during the month of January of a calendar year will be deemed to have occurred on January 1 of the calendar year.







As described above, certain Designated Participants (or a Designated Participant’s heirs in the case of death) may be eligible to receive pro-rata Awards.  Pursuant to the administrative authority provided to the Committee under the Plan, the Committee has determined that for purposes of prorating Awards under the Plan, any formula that incorporates a fraction where the denominator is 365 days (or 12 months) shall be interpreted to mean a fraction where the denominator is the actual number of days (or months) in the Plan Year.







Determinations of Awards to Non-Designated Participants (from the discretionary pool) will be made by the Committee or the CEO at the end of a Plan Year.








	
V.  

	
Other Plan Provisions







 



	
A.  

	
Payment of Awards







 


Assessment of actual performance and payout of Awards will be subject to completion of the Company’s fiscal year-end independent audit and certification by the Committee that the applicable Performance Goals and other material terms of the Plan have been met.







The Actual Award earned will be paid to Designated Participants (or the Designated Participant’s heirs in the case of death) in cash within 30 days following completion of both the independent audit and the above-referenced certification by the Committee.  Awards to Non-Designated Participants will be paid concurrently to the extent practicable, but in any case within thirty (30) days following the payment of Awards to Designated Participants.  Payroll and other taxes will be withheld as required by law.


 


 




  





8











  








 



	
B.  

	
Plan Accrual







 


Estimated payouts for the Plan will accrue monthly during each Plan Year.  At the end of each fiscal quarter, the estimated Actual Awards for the Plan Year will be evaluated based on actual performance to date and the monthly accrual rate will be adjusted so that the cost of the Plan is fully accrued at Plan Year-end.   Accrual of estimated payouts does not imply vesting of any individual Awards to Designated Participants.








	
C.  

	
Administration







 


The Plan will be administered by the Committee and the CEO, except that the Committee retains final authority regarding all aspects of Plan administration, the resolution of any disputes, and application of the Plan in any respect to a Covered Employee.  The Committee may, without notice, amend, suspend or revoke the Plan at any time.








	
D.  

	
Assignment of Employee Rights







 


No employee has a claim or right to be a participant, to continue as a participant or to be granted an Award under the Plan.  Participation in the Plan does not give an employee the right to be retained in the employment of the Company or its affiliates, nor does it imply or confer any other employment rights.







Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to create a contract of employment with any participant.  The Company and its Affiliates reserve the right to elect any person to its offices and to remove any employees in any manner and upon any basis permitted by law.







Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to require the Company or its Affiliates to deposit, invest or set aside amounts for the payment of any Awards.  Participation in the Plan does not give a participant any ownership, security or other rights in any assets of the Company or any of its Affiliates.








	
E.  

	
Validity







 


In the event that any provision of the Plan is held invalid, void or unenforceable, such provision shall not affect, in any respect, the validity of any other provision of the Plan.








	
F.  

	
Governing Law







 


The Plan will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California.
