Annex A




2006 Executive Supplemental Incentive Plan

Additional Material Terms



Under the terms of the Executive Supplemental Incentive Plans, executive officers who were
executive officers of Symantec prior to the acquisition of VERITAS are eligible to receive
performance-based incentive bonuses equivalent to the bonuses payable under, and upon terms
substantially similar to, the Executive Incentive Plans. Symantec’s chief executive officer is not
eligible to participate under the Executive Supplemental Incentive Plan. The supplemental incentive
bonuses will be in addition to the incentive bonuses payable under the Executive Incentive Plans.



The target payouts under the supplemental incentive plans are 40% to 100% of a participant’s annual
base salary. The actual bonus amounts for all executive officers other than Symantec’s Vice
President of Finance and Chief Accounting Officer, and Symantec’s Senior Vice President, Business
Unit, are subject to the following metrics and weighting: (a) achievement of targeted revenue
growth of the combined company (50% weighting); and (b) achievement of targeted earnings per share
growth of the combined company (50% weighting). The actual bonus amounts for Symantec’s Vice
President of Finance and Chief Accounting Officer and Symantec’s Senior Vice President, Business
Unit, are subject to an individual objectives metric (30% weighting and 40% weighting,
respectively) in addition to the revenue and earnings per share metrics described above (weighted
at 35% each and 30% each, respectively).



The plans do not include minimum guaranteed payments except for Thomas Kendra, Executive Vice
President World Wide Sales, in the amount of $750,000. In addition, the supplemental incentive
bonus may be increased up to a maximum of 50% of the calculated bonus amount for any participant,
based on the executive officer’s impact on and contributions to the integration of Symantec and
VERITAS.
