“Amendment”), to the Credit Agreement dated as of July 21, 1999,
as amended and restated as of March 21, 2005 (as amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”),
among ALLIED WASTE INDUSTRIES, INC. (“Allied Waste”), ALLIED WASTE
NORTH AMERICA, INC. (the “Borrower”), the lenders party thereto
(the “Lenders”), and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative
agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and
collateral agent for the Lenders and as collateral trustee for the Shared
Collateral Secured Parties.

          A. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.

          B. Allied Waste and the Borrower have requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to
provide for a new tranche of term loans thereunder (the “New Term Loans”), the proceeds of
which will be used to refinance all currently outstanding Term Loans. Except as otherwise provided
herein, the New Term Loans will have the same terms as the Term Loans currently outstanding under
the Credit Agreement.

          C. Allied Waste and the Borrower have further requested that such amendment provide for the
refinancing of the existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits with new credit-linked deposits in an
equal amount (the “New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits”), which, except as otherwise
provided herein, will have the same terms as such existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits.

          D. Each existing Term Lender (an “Existing Term Lender”) that executes and delivers a
signature page to this Amendment (a “Lender Addendum”) and does not notify JPMorgan
Securities Inc. (the “Arranger”) that it does not want to make New Term Loans (a
“Converting Term Lender”) will be deemed (i) to have agreed to the terms of this Amendment,
(ii) to have agreed to convert its Term Loans (“Existing Term Loans”) outstanding on the
Amendment Effective Date (as defined herein) into New Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount
up to, but not in excess of, the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Term Loans, and (iii)
upon the Amendment Effective Date, to have converted such amount of its Existing Term Loans as is
determined by the Arranger and notified to such Existing Term Lender into New Term Loans in an
equal principal amount.

          E. Each existing Tranche A Lender (an “Existing Tranche A Lender”) that executes and
delivers a Lender Addendum and does not notify the Arranger that it does not want to make New
Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits (a “Converting Tranche A Lender”) will be deemed (i) to
have agreed to the terms of this Amendment, (ii) to have agreed to convert its Tranche A
Credit-Linked Deposits (“Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits”) existing on the
Amendment Effective Date into New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits in an aggregate amount up to,
but not in excess of, the aggregate amount of such Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits, and
(iii) upon the Amendment Effective Date, to have converted such amount of its Existing Tranche A
Credit-Linked Deposits as is determined by the Arranger and notified to such Existing Tranche A
Lender into New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits in an equal amount.

          F. Each Person (other than a Converting Term Lender in its capacity as such) that executes
and delivers a Lender Addendum and agrees to make New Term Loans (an “Additional Term
Lender”), including any Existing Term Lender that notifies the Arranger that it does not want
to be a Converting Term Lender but is willing to undertake a commitment to make and fund New Term
Loans, will be deemed (i) to have agreed to the terms of this Amendment and (ii) to have committed
to make New Term Loans to the Borrower on the Amendment Effective Date (“Additional Term
Loans”), in such amounts (not in excess of any such commitment) as are determined by the
Arranger and notified to such Additional Term Lender. The proceeds of such

Additional Term Loans will be used by the Borrower to repay in full the outstanding principal
amount of Existing Term Loans that are not converted by Converting Term Lenders into New Term
Loans.

          G. Each Person (other than a Converting Tranche A Lender in its capacity as such) that
executes and delivers a Lender Addendum and agrees to make New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits (an
“Additional Tranche A Lender”), including any Existing Tranche A Lender that notifies the
Arranger that it does not want to be a Converting Tranche A Lender but is willing to undertake a
commitment to fund New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits, will be deemed (i) to have agreed to the
terms of this Amendment and (ii) to have committed to make New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits on
the Amendment Effective Date (“Additional Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits”), in such
amounts (not in excess of any such commitment) as are determined by the Arranger and notified to
such Additional Tranche A Lender.

          H. Each Lender other than a New Lender (as defined below), including any Revolving Lender
that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum solely in the capacity of a Revolving Lender or any
Existing Term Lender or Existing Tranche A Lender that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum
solely in the capacity of a Term Lender and/or Tranche A Lender and not specifically as a New
Lender, will be deemed to have agreed to the terms of this Amendment but will not be deemed thereby
to have agreed to (i) convert Existing Term Loans into New Term Loans or Existing Tranche A
Credit-Linked Deposits into New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits or (ii) to have made any
commitment to make New Term Loans or New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits.

          I. The Converting Term Lenders and the Additional Term Lenders (collectively, the “New
Term Lenders”) are severally willing to convert their Existing Term Loans into New Term Loans
or to make New Term Loans, as the case may be, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Amendment.

are severally willing to convert their Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits into New Tranche A
Credit-Linked Deposits or to make New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits, as the case may be, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment.

          (b) Amendment of Section 2.01. Section 2.01 of the Credit Agreement is

          (c) Amendment of Section 2.05. Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement is

          (g) Amendment of Section 2.22. Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement is
revised by (i) designating the sole paragraph of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement as paragraph
(a) of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) adding the following paragraph (b) to Section
2.22 of the Credit Agreement:

     “(b) At any time prior to the Tranche A Maturity Date, the Borrower may, by notice to
the Administrative Agent which shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to each of

4

 

the Lenders (the “Refinancing Funded LC Facility Notice”), request the addition of
a new pre-funded letter of credit facility (the “Refinancing Funded LC Facility”),
which will replace all then existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits pursuant to Section
2.08; provided, however, that both (x) at the time of any such request and
(y) after giving effect to any such Refinancing Funded LC Facility, (i) no Default shall
exist, (ii) the Borrower shall be in compliance with each Financial Performance Covenant
and (iii) there shall be no outstanding unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to
Tranche A Letters of Credit. Refinancing Funded LC Facilities shall not constitute
Additional Funded LC Facilities for purposes of this Section (or reduce the amounts of any
Additional Funded LC Facilities that could be effected pursuant to paragraph (a) of this
Section), and each Refinancing Funded LC Facility shall, on the date the applicable
credit-linked deposits are made, replace all then existing Tranche A Credit-Linked
Deposits. The aggregate amount of the Refinancing Funded LC Facility requested in a
Refinancing Funded LC Facility Notice or thereafter established shall equal the outstanding
amount of Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits at the time of such notice or on the date the
applicable credit-linked deposits are made in respect of the Refinancing Funded LC
Facility, as the case may be. The obligations in respect of letters of credit issued under
the Refinancing Funded LC Facility shall (i) rank pari passu in right of
payment and of security with the other Loans (including the Incremental Term Loans (if
any)), (ii) have such pricing as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Persons providing
the Refinancing Funded LC Facility and (iii) otherwise be treated hereunder substantially
the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Tranche A Letters of Credit.
Letters of credit issued under the Refinancing Funded LC Facility shall be used solely to
support payment obligations of Allied Waste, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries incurred in
the ordinary course of business. Each credit-linked deposit in respect of the Refinancing
Funded LC Facility will become a Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposit under this Agreement and
the Refinancing Funded LC Facility will be implemented hereunder pursuant to an amendment
to this Agreement (a “Refinancing Funded LC Facility Amendment”) executed by each
of the Borrower, Allied Waste, each other Loan Party, each Lender (including any new
Lender) agreeing to provide a credit-linked deposit under the Refinancing Funded LC
Facility and the Administrative Agent, which Refinancing Funded LC Facility Amendment will
not require the consent of any other Person. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Funded
LC Facility Amendment will (in addition to any other conditions specified therein) be
subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof and, if different, on the date on which the
applicable credit-linked deposits are made, of each of the conditions set forth in Section
4.02.”

          (h) Amendment of Section 5.16. The first sentence of Section 5.16 of the
Credit Agreement is revised to read in its entirety as follows:

     “The proceeds of the Term Loans made on the Second Amendment Effective Date will be
used only to refinance Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the Second Amendment
Effective Date.

          (i) Amendment of Section 9.02. Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement is
amended by revising the last sentence of the first paragraph of paragraph (b) thereof to read in
its entirety as follows:

     “Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) each of the Incremental Facility Amendment, the
Refinancing Facility Amendment, the Refinancing Funded LC Facility Amendment, the Funded LC
Facility Amendment, and the Incremental Revolving Letter of Credit Facility Amendment shall
become effective in the manner set forth in Sections 2.21(a), 2.21(b), 2.22(a), 2.22(b) and
2.23, respectively, and (ii) each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Collateral Trustee, as applicable, shall be permitted to amend (and, at the request of the
Borrower, shall so amend) the Shared Collateral

5

 

Security Agreement or the Shared Collateral Pledge Agreement in a manner reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Trustee,
as the case may be, without the consent of any other Lender in order to add the holders of
(and the agents with respect to) any Refinancing Indebtedness issued to refinance
Indebtedness secured on the Restatement Effective Date by the Shared Collateral or
Qualifying Senior Secured Indebtedness as secured parties thereunder.”

          (j) Amendment of Schedule 2.01. Schedule 2.01 of the Credit Agreement is
deleted and replaced in its entirety with a new Schedule 2.01 (the “New Schedule 2.01”)
that will, upon completion of the allocations of commitments to make New Term Loans and New Tranche
A Credit-Linked Deposits in accordance with the terms hereof, set forth each Lender’s Term Loan
Commitment, Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposit and Revolving Commitment as of the Second Amendment
Effective Date, and shall be furnished to each New Lender and the Borrower promptly upon the
completion of such allocations.

          SECTION 2. Representations and Warranties. To induce the other parties
hereto to enter into this Amendment, each of the Borrower and Allied Waste represents and warrants
to each of the Lenders, the New Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent that, as
of the Amendment Effective Date:

          (a) This Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and this
Amendment and the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, constitutes its legal, valid and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

          (b) The representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Credit
Agreement are, after giving effect to this Amendment and the making of the New Term Loans and New
Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits, true and correct in all material respects on and as of the
Amendment Effective Date with the same effect as though made on and as of the Amendment Effective
Date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date
(in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).

          (c) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

          SECTION 3. New Term Loans; New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits. (a)
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Converting Term Lender and
Additional Term Lender agrees to make New Term Loans to the Borrower on the Amendment Effective
Date in amounts equal to its New Term Loan Commitment (as defined below) and (ii) each Converting
Tranche A Lender and Additional Tranche A Lender agrees to make New Tranche A Credit-Linked
Deposits on the Amendment Effective Date in amounts equal to its New Tranche A Commitment (as
defined below). Such New Term Loans and New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits shall be made in the
manner contemplated by paragraph (b) of this Section. The “New Term Loan Commitment” (i)
of any Converting Term Lender will be such amount (not in excess of the amount of its Existing Term
Loans) as is determined by the Arranger and notified to such Lender prior to the Amendment
Effective Date and (ii) of any Additional Term Lender will be the amount (not exceeding any
commitment offered by such Additional Term Lender) allocated to it by the Borrower and the Arranger
and notified to it prior to the Amendment Effective Date. The “New Tranche A Commitment”
(i) of any Converting Tranche A Lender will be such amount (not in excess of the amount of its
Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits) as is determined by the Arranger and notified to such
Lender prior to the Amendment Effective Date and (ii) of any Additional Tranche A Lender will be
the amount (not exceeding any commitment offered by such Additional Tranche A Lender) allocated to it by
the Borrower and the Arranger and notified to it

New Term Loan Commitment of each Converting Term Lender, (ii) the New Term Loan Commitment of each
Additional Term Lender, (iii) the New Tranche A Commitment of each Converting Tranche A Lender and
(iv) the New Tranche A Commitment of each Additional Tranche A Lender. The commitments of the New
Lenders are several and no such Lender will be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make
or acquire by conversion New Term Loans or New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits.

          (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Converting Term
Lender will make New Term Loans on the Amendment Effective Date by exchanging its Existing Term
Loans for New Term Loans in an equal principal amount up to the amount of its New Term Loan
Commitment and (ii) each Converting Tranche A Lender will make New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits
on the Amendment Effective Date by exchanging its Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits for New
Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits in an equal amount up to the amount of its New Tranche A
Commitment. Any portion of an Existing Term Loan exchanged for a New Term Loan as contemplated
hereby is referred to herein as an “Exchanged Loan”, and any portion of an Existing Tranche
A Credit-Linked Deposit exchanged for a New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposit as contemplated hereby
is referred to herein as an “Exchanged Deposit”. Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, (i) each Additional Term Lender will make its New Term Loans by transferring the
amount thereof to the Administrative Agent on the Amendment Effective Date in the manner
contemplated by Section 2.06 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) each Additional Tranche A Lender will
make its New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits by transferring the amount thereof to the
Administrative Agent on the Amendment Effective Date in the manner contemplated by Section
2.05(b)(ii)(B) of the Credit Agreement.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, (i)
the aggregate principal amount of the New Term Loans will not exceed the aggregate principal amount
of the Existing Term Loans immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date and (ii) the aggregate
amount of the New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits will not exceed the aggregate amount of the
Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date.

          (d) The obligations of each Converting Term Lender and Additional Term Lender to
make New Term Loans on the Amendment Effective Date and the obligations of each Converting Tranche
A Lender and each Additional Tranche A Lender to fund New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits on the
Amendment Effective Date are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

     (i) The conditions set forth in Section 4.02 of the Credit Agreement shall
be satisfied on and as of the Amendment Effective Date, and the Administrative Agent shall
have received a certificate of a Financial Officer, dated the Amendment Effective Date, to
such effect;

     (ii) The Administrative Agent shall have received favorable legal opinions
of (A) Latham & Watkins LLP, special counsel to the Loan Parties, and (B) Steven M. Helm,
General Counsel of Allied Waste, in each case addressed to the Lenders and dated the
Amendment Effective Date, covering such matters relating to the New Term Loans, the New
Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits, this Amendment, the Credit Agreement as amended hereby,
and the other Loan Documents and security interests thereunder as the Administrative Agent
may reasonably request, which opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent;

     (iii) The Administrative Agent shall have received for each of Allied Waste,
the Borrower and each other Material Loan Party, a certificate of the Secretary or an
Assistant Secretary of such Material Loan Party, dated the Amendment Effective Date

7

 

and certifying that attached thereto is a true and complete copy of resolutions (or consent by
members or partners, where applicable, to the extent required) duly adopted by the board of
directors (or members or partners, where applicable) of such Material Loan Party
authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and the Credit
Agreement as amended hereby, and the amendment of any other Loan Documents to which it is
party required to be amended hereby;

     (iv) Each Loan Party that has not executed and delivered this Amendment
shall have entered into a written instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to which it confirms that it consents to this Amendment and that the
Security Documents to which it is party will continue to apply in respect of the Credit
Agreement, as amended hereby, and the Obligations thereunder;

     (v) The aggregate amount of New Term Loan Commitments shall equal the
aggregate principal amount of the Existing Term Loans. The aggregate amount of the New
Tranche A Commitments shall equal the aggregate amount of the Existing Tranche A
Credit-Linked Deposits;

     (vi) The Administrative Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to
it that the Borrower has made the payments referred to in Section 3(f) or is making such
payments on the Amendment Effective Date with the cash proceeds of the New Term Loans and
such other funds of the Borrower as may be required;

     (vii) There shall be no outstanding unreimbursed LC Disbursements with
respect to Tranche A Letters of Credit on the Amendment Effective Date; and

     (viii) The conditions to effectiveness of this Amendment set forth in
Section 4 hereof shall have been satisfied.

          (e) All Borrowings of New Term Loans made on the Amendment Effective Date will have
initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the
Existing Term Loans being refinanced with such New Term Loans, and the Adjusted LIBO Rates
applicable to such New Term Loans during such initial Interest Periods will be the same as those
applicable to the Existing Term Loans being refinanced. For purposes of the foregoing, such
Interest Periods shall be assigned to the New Term Loans of each Additional Term Lender in the same
proportion that such Interest Periods applied to the Existing Term Loans on the Amendment Effective
Date. The Borrower will not be required to make any payments to Converting Term Lenders under
Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement in respect of the repayment of Exchanged Loans on the
Amendment Effective Date pursuant to their exchange for New Term Loans.

          (f) On the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall apply the cash proceeds of
the New Term Loans and such other amounts as may be necessary to (i) prepay in full all Existing
Term Loans other than Exchanged Loans, (ii) pay all accrued and unpaid interest on Existing Term
Loans, (iii) pay all accrued and unpaid Tranche A Participation Fees, (iv) pay to each Existing
Term Lender all amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement as a result of the

owing to the Existing Term Lenders and the Existing Tranche A Lenders, in their capacities as such,
under the Credit Agreement. On the Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall return
to each Existing Tranche A Lender the amount of its Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposit, other
than any such deposit that constitutes an Exchanged Deposit.

8

 

          (g) On the Amendment Effective Date, each Issuing Bank that has issued a Tranche A
Letter of Credit prior to the Amendment Effective Date (an “Existing Tranche A Letter of
Credit”) shall be deemed, without further action by any New Tranche A Lender or any other party
hereto or to the Credit Agreement, to have granted to each New Tranche A Lender and each New
Tranche A Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from such Issuing Bank a participation in
such Tranche A Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) of the Credit Agreement.
Concurrently with such grant, the participations in the Existing Tranche A Letters of Credit
granted to the Existing Tranche A Lenders under the Credit Agreement shall be automatically
canceled without further action by any of the parties thereto. On and after the Amendment
Effective Date, each Existing Tranche A Letter of Credit shall constitute a Letter of Credit for
all purposes of the Credit Agreement.

          (h) On and after the Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Credit
Agreement to “Term Loans” shall, except as the context may otherwise require, be deemed to be a
reference to the New Term Loans contemplated hereby, and each reference in the Credit Agreement to
“Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits” shall, except as the context may otherwise require, be deemed to
be a reference to the New Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposits contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to indemnification,
reimbursement of costs and expenses, increased costs and break funding payments (other than as set
forth in Section 3(e) above) will continue in full force and effect with respect to, and for the
benefit of, each Existing Term Lender and each Existing Tranche A Lender in respect of such
Lender’s Existing Term Loans or Existing Tranche A Credit-Linked Deposit, as the case may be,
existing under the Credit Agreement prior to the Amendment Effective Date.

          SECTION 4. Effectiveness. This Amendment of the Credit Agreement effected
hereby shall become effective as of the first date (the “Amendment Effective Date”) on
which the following conditions have been satisfied:

          (a) The Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received (x) duly executed
counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of (i) Allied Waste, (ii) the
Borrower, (iii) the Required Lenders and (iv) the Administrative Agent and (y) counterparts of this
Amendment that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the Converting Term Lenders,
Converting Tranche A Lenders, Additional Term Lenders and Additional Tranche A Lenders.

          (b) The conditions to the making of the New Term Loans and the funding of the New

in its sole discretion, may delegate all or any portion of its authority and duties under the Plan
to the Committee under such conditions and limitations as the Board may from time to time
establish. The Board and/or any Committee that has been delegated the authority to administer the
Plan shall be referred to throughout this Plan as the “Committee.” Except as otherwise explicitly
set forth in the Plan, the Committee shall have the authority, in its discretion, to determine all
matters relating to Awards under the Plan, including the selection of the individuals to be granted
Awards, the time or times of grant, the type of Awards, the number of shares of Common Stock
subject to an Award, vesting conditions, and any and all other terms, conditions, restrictions and
limitations, if any, of an Award.

          (b) Committee’s Authority and Discretion with Respect to the Plan. The Committee
shall have full authority and discretion (i) to administer, interpret, and construe the Plan and
the terms of any Award issued under it, (ii) to establish, amend, and rescind any rules and
regulations relating to the Plan, (iii) to determine, interpret, and construe the terms and
provisions of any Award agreement made pursuant to the Plan, and (iv) to make all other
determinations that may be necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan and any Awards
made under the Plan. In controlling and managing the operation and administration of the Plan, the
Committee shall take action in a manner that conforms to the Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws of the Company, as amended from time to time, and applicable law. Subject to (A) the
limitations with respect to Incentive Stock Options under Code Section 422 and the Plan and (B)
Section 3(c), the Committee may, in its absolute discretion (1) accelerate the date on
which any Award becomes vested, exercisable, or issuable, but only in connection with the
termination of the Participant’s Service with the Company or upon a Change in Control; (2) extend
the date on which any Award ceases to be exercisable or on which it terminates or expires; (3)
waive, make less restrictive, or eliminate any restriction on or condition imposed with respect to
any Award, and (4) amend the Plan as set forth in Section 19. In addition, the Committee
may, in its absolute discretion, grant Awards to Participants on the condition that such
Participants surrender to the Company for cancellation such other awards under the Plan or another
plan of the Company (including, without limitation, Awards with higher Exercise Prices, but subject
to Section 3(c)) as the Committee specifies. Notwithstanding Section 5, Awards
granted on the condition of surrender of outstanding Awards shall not count against the limits set
forth in Section 5 until such time as such Awards are surrendered. The Committee may
correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan or in any
Award in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable to further the
Plan purposes. All decisions made by the Committee in connection with the interpretation and
administration of the Plan or with respect to any Awards made under the Plan and related orders and
resolutions shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all persons.

          (c) No Repricing Without Stockholder Approval. Notwithstanding any other provision
of the Plan to the contrary, no Options or SARs may be repriced without the approval of the
stockholders of the Company. Stockholder approval shall be evidenced by the affirmative vote of
the holders of the majority of the shares of the Company’s capital stock present in person or by
proxy and

6

 

voting at the meeting. For purposes of the Plan, “repricing” shall include (i)
amendments or adjustments to Options or SARs that reduce the Exercise Price of such Options or
SARs, (ii) situations in which new Options or SARS are issued to a Participant in place of
cancelled Options or SARs with a higher Exercise Price, and (iii) any other amendment, adjustment,
cancellation or replacement grant or other means of repricing an outstanding Option or SAR,
including a buyout for a payment of cash or cash equivalents.

          (d) Delegation to Officers. Following the authorization of a pool of cash or shares
of Common Stock to be available for Awards, the Committee may delegate to one or more subcommittees
consisting of one or more officers of the Company any or all of its power and duties under the Plan
pursuant to such conditions or limitations as the Committee may establish; provided, however, that
the Committee shall not delegate to such officers its authority to (i) amend or modify the Plan
pursuant to Section 19, (ii) act on matters affecting any Participant who is subject to the
reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act or the liability provisions of Section
16(b) of the Exchange Act, or otherwise take any action or fail to act in a manner that would cause
any Award or other transaction under the Plan to cease to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act, or (iii) determine the extent to which Awards will conform to the requirements of
Code Section 162(m). The Committee may authorize any one or more of its members or any officer of
the Company to execute and deliver documents on behalf of the Committee.

          (e) Other Plans. The Committee also shall have authority to grant Awards as an
alternative to, as a replacement of, or as the form of payment for grants or rights earned or due
under the Plan or other compensation plans or arrangements of the Company, including Substitute
Awards granted with respect to an equity compensation plan of any entity acquired by the Company.

          (f) Limitation of Liability. No member of the Committee or any person to whom the
Committee delegates authority pursuant to Section 3(b) or 3(d) shall be liable for
any action, omission or determination relating to the Plan, and the Company shall indemnify and
hold harmless each member of the Committee and each other person to whom any duty or power relating
to the administration or interpretation of the Plan has been delegated from and against any cost or
expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim
with the approval of the Committee) arising out of any action, omission or determination relating
to the Plan unless, in either case, such action, omission or determination was taken or made by
such Committee member or other person in bad faith and without reasonable belief that it was in the
best interests of the Company.

     4. Eligibility. The persons who shall be eligible to receive Awards pursuant to the
Plan shall be (a) those Employees who are largely responsible for the management, growth, and
protection of the business of the Company (including officers of the Company, whether or not they
are directors of the Company), and (b) any Consultant, as the Committee, in its absolute
discretion, shall select from time to time; provided, however, that Incentive Stock Options may
only be granted to Employees. An Award may be granted to a proposed Employee or Consultant prior
to the date the proposed Employee or Consultant first performs services for the Company, provided
that the grant of such Awards shall not become effective prior to the date the proposed Employee or
Consultant first performs such services. Subject to the foregoing, the Committee, in its
discretion, may grant any Award permitted under the provisions of the Plan to any eligible person
and may grant more than one Award to any eligible person.

     5. Shares Subject to the Plan.

          (a) Number and Source. The shares offered under the Plan shall be shares of Common
Stock and may be unissued shares or shares now held or subsequently acquired by the Company as
treasury shares, as the Committee from time to time may determine. Subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 20, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock for which
Awards, including Options that are intended to be Incentive Stock Options, may be granted during
the term of the Plan shall not exceed an absolute maximum of 34,886,905 shares of Common Stock as
of December 31, 2005 (the “Share Limit”).

7

 

          (b) Determination of Shares Remaining Available Under the Share Limit. Any shares of
Common Stock that are subject to Awards of Options or SARs shall be counted against the Share Limit
as one (1) share for every one (1) share granted, regardless of the number of shares of Common
Stock actually issued upon the exercise of an Option or SAR. Any shares of Common Stock that are
subject to Awards other than Options or SARs (including Performance Awards denominated in dollars
but settled in shares of Common Stock) shall be counted against the Share Limit as one and one-half
(1-1/2) shares for every one (1) share granted or issued.

               (i) Any shares subject to an Award granted under the Plan that are not delivered
because the Award expires unexercised or is forfeited, terminated, canceled, or exchanged for
Awards that do not involve Common Stock, or any shares of Common Stock that are not delivered
because the Award is settled in cash, shall not be deemed to have been delivered for purposes of
determining the Share Limit. Instead, such shares shall immediately be added back to the Share
Limit and shall be available for future Awards; provided that (A) any shares of Common Stock that
are subject to Awards of Options or SARs shall be added back as one (1) share for every one (1)
share granted; and (B) any shares of Common Stock that are subject to Awards other than Options or
SARs (including Performance Awards denominated in dollars but settled in shares of Common Stock)
shall be added back as one and one-half (1-1/2) shares for every one (1) share granted.

               (ii) The grant of a Cash Award shall not reduce or be counted against the Share
Limit. The payment of cash dividends and Dividend Equivalents paid in cash in conjunction with
outstanding Awards shall not reduce or be counted against the Share Limit. Shares of Common Stock
delivered under the Plan as a Substitute Award or in settlement of a Substitute Award shall not
reduce or be counted against the Share Limit to the extent that the rules and regulations of any
stock exchange or other trading market on which the Common Stock is listed or traded provide an
exemption from stockholder approval for assumption, substitution, conversion, adjustment, or
replacement of outstanding awards in connection with mergers, acquisitions, or other corporate
combinations.

               (iii) The Committee may from time to time adopt and observe such rules and
procedures concerning the counting of shares against the Share Limit or any sublimit as it may deem
appropriate, including rules more restrictive than those set forth above to the extent necessary to
satisfy the requirements of any national stock exchange or other trading market on which the Common
Stock is listed or traded or any applicable regulatory requirement.

     6. Terms of Awards.

          (a) Types of Awards. Awards granted under the Plan may include, but are not limited
to, the types of Awards described in Sections 7 through 14. Such Awards may be
granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with any other types of Award granted under the
Plan.

          (b) Limit on Number of Awards. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to
the contrary, the following limitations shall apply to the following types of Awards made
hereunder, other than Substitute Awards:

               (i) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be covered by Awards
granted to any one individual in any year shall not exceed the following:

                    (A) 1,500,000 shares in the case of Options and SARs; and

                    (B) 750,000 shares in the case of Restricted Stock and RSUs (including Restricted
Stock and RSUs granted subject to the terms and conditions contained in Section 10),
Performance Awards denominated in shares of Common Stock, and Stock Bonuses.

8

 

               (ii) The aggregate dollar value of Awards that may be paid to any one individual in
any year shall not exceed the following:

                    (A) $5,000,000 in the case of Cash Awards; and

                    (B) $10,000,000 in the case of Performance Awards denominated in dollars.

          (c) Vesting. Except for Options and SARs issued as Substitute Awards, each Option
and SAR shall be subject to a minimum vesting period of not less than one year from the Grant Date
of such Option or SAR. Except as provided in the following sentence, Awards other than Options,
SARs, or Performance Awards shall be subject to a minimum vesting period of not less than three
years from the Grant Date for such Awards, provided that such Awards may vest ratably over the
vesting period determined by the Committee at the time of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, up
to 5% of Awards other than Options, SARs, or Performance Awards may have a vesting period of not
less than one year from the Grant Date.

          (d) Individual Award Agreements. Options shall and other Awards may be evidenced by
agreements between the Company and the Participant in such form and content as the Committee from
time to time approves, which agreements shall substantially comply with and be subject to the terms
of the Plan. Such individual agreements (i) may contain such provisions or conditions as the
Committee deems necessary or appropriate to effectuate the sense and purpose of the Plan and (ii)
may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof.

          (e) Payment; Deferral. Awards granted under the Plan may be settled through
exercise, as set forth in Section 15, cash payments, the delivery of Common Stock (valued
at Fair Market Value), through the granting of replacement Awards, or through combinations thereof
as the Committee shall determine. The Committee may permit or require the deferral of any Award
payment, subject to the terms of the applicable Deferred Compensation Plan and to such rules and
procedures as the Committee may establish, which may include provisions for the payment or
crediting of interest or Dividend Equivalents, including converting such credits to deferred
Awards. Any Award settlement, including payment deferrals, may be subject to such conditions,
restrictions, and contingencies as the Committee shall determine. A Participant’s deferral
election must be made in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. When the
deferral occurs, the deferred Award(s) will be transferred into or credited to a deferred
compensation account established under the Deferred Compensation Plan and will be subject to the
terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan.

          (f) Buyout of Awards. The Committee may at any time (i) offer to buy out an
outstanding Award for a payment of cash or cash equivalents, or (ii) authorize a Participant to
elect to cash out an outstanding Award, in either case at such time and based upon such terms and
conditions (but subject to Section 3(c)) as the Committee shall establish.

     7. Options. The Committee may grant Options designated as Incentive Stock Options
or as Non-Qualified Stock Options. In the absence of any such designation, however, such Option
shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. A Participant and the Committee can agree at any
time to convert an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

          (a) Limitations on Grants of Incentive Stock Options. No Option that is intended to
be an Incentive Stock Option shall be invalid for failure to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option
under Code Section 422, but shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Options that are
granted to a particular individual and that are intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be treated as
Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of such Options plus all other Incentive Stock Options held by such
individual (whether granted under the Plan or any other plans of the Company) that become
exercisable for the first time during any

9

 

calendar year exceeds $100,000 (or such corresponding
amount as may be set by the Code). Such Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the Grant Date
of each such Incentive Stock Option.

          (b) Exercise Price of Options. The Exercise Price of a particular Option shall be
determined by the Committee on the Grant Date; provided, however, that the Exercise Price shall not
be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date (110% of the Fair
Market Value if Incentive Stock Options are granted to a stockholder who owns or is deemed to own
stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company on the Grant Date).

          (c) Term of Options. The Committee shall set the term of each Option, provided,
however, that except as set forth in Section 18(b), no Option shall be exercisable more
than 10 years after the Grant Date (five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to
a stockholder who owns or is deemed to own stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company
on the Grant Date); and provided, further, that each Option shall be subject to earlier
termination, expiration or cancellation as provided in the Plan or in the Option agreement.

     8. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. The Committee may grant Awards
consisting of shares of Restricted Stock or denominated in Restricted Stock Units in such amounts
and for such consideration as the Committee may determine in its discretion. Such Awards may be
subject to (a) forfeiture of such shares or RSUs upon termination of Service during the applicable
restriction period, (b) restrictions on transferability (which may be in addition to or in lieu of
those specified in Section 16), (c) limitations on the right to vote such shares, (d)
limitations on the right to receive dividends with respect to such shares, (e) attainment of
certain Performance Goals, such as those described in Section 10, and (f) such other
conditions, limitations, and restrictions as determined by the Committee, in its discretion, and as
set forth in the instrument evidencing the Award. Certificates representing shares of Restricted
Stock or shares of Common Stock issued upon vesting of RSUs shall bear an appropriate legend and
may be held subject to escrow and such other conditions as determined by the Committee until such
time as all applicable restrictions lapse.

     9. Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant SARs pursuant to the Plan,
either in tandem with another Award granted under the Plan or independent of any other Award grant.
Each grant of SARs shall be evidenced by an agreement in such form as the Committee shall from
time to time approve. The Committee may establish a maximum appreciation value payable for SARs
and such other terms and conditions for such SARs as the Committee may determine in its discretion.
The Exercise Price of a SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock on the Grant Date. The holder of an SAR granted in tandem with an Option may elect to
exercise either the Option or the SAR, but not both. Except as set forth in Section 18(b),
the exercise period for a SAR shall extend no more than 10 years after the Grant Date. In
addition, each grant of SARs shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and
conditions:

          (a) Vesting Date and Conditions to Vesting. Upon the grant of SARs, the Committee
may (i) establish a Vesting Date or Vesting Dates and expiration dates with respect to such
rights, (ii) divide such rights into classes and assign a different Vesting Date for each class,
and (iii) impose such restrictions or conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions herein, with
respect to the vesting of such rights as the Committee, in its absolute discretion, deems
appropriate. By way of example and not by way of limitation, the Committee may require, as a
condition to the vesting of any class or classes of SARs, that the Participant or the Company
achieve certain performance criteria, such criteria to be specified by the Committee on the Grant
Date of such rights. Provided that all conditions to the vesting of SARs are satisfied, and except
as provided in Section 18, upon the occurrence of the Vesting Date with respect to such SARs,
such rights shall vest and the Participant shall be
entitled to exercise such rights prior to their termination or expiration.

10

 

          (b) Benefit Upon Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights. Upon the exercise of a
vested SAR, the Participant shall be entitled to receive one or more of the following benefits, as
determined by the Committee on the Grant Date of such SAR and set forth in the agreement evidencing
the SAR:

               (i) Within 90 days of the Exercise Date for the SAR, the Company shall pay to the
Participant an amount in cash in a lump sum equal to the difference between (A) the Fair Market
Value of one share of Common Stock of the Company on the Exercise Date, over (B) the Exercise Price
of the SAR.

               (ii) At the discretion of the Committee, the agreement evidencing the SAR may give
the Participant the right to elect to receive, in lieu of cash as set forth in Section
9(b)(i), shares of the Company’s Common Stock having a Fair Market Value as of the Exercise
Date equal to the difference between (A) the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock of the
Company on the Exercise Date, over (B) the Exercise Price of the SAR.

     10. Performance Awards. The Committee may grant Performance Awards pursuant to the
Plan. Each grant of Performance Awards shall be evidenced by an agreement in such form as the
Committee shall from time to time approve. Each grant of Performance Awards shall comply with and
be subject to the following terms and conditions:

          (a) Performance Period and Amount of Performance Award. With respect to each grant
of a Performance Award, the Committee shall establish a performance period over which the
performance of the Company and/or of the applicable Participant shall be measured, provided that no
performance period shall be shorter than one year. In determining the amount of the Performance
Award to be granted to a particular Participant, the Committee may take into account such factors
as the Participant’s responsibility level and growth potential, the amount of other Awards granted
to or received by such Participant, and such other considerations as the Committee deems
appropriate; provided, however, the maximum value that can be granted as a Performance Award to any
one individual during any calendar year shall be limited to the amount set forth in Section
6(b).

          (b) Non-Qualified Performance Awards and Qualified Performance Awards.
Non-Qualified Performance Awards, which are not intended to qualify as qualified performance-based
compensation under Code Section 162(m), shall be based on achievement of such goals and be subject
to such terms, conditions, and restrictions as the Committee or its delegate shall determine.
Qualified Performance Awards, which are intended to qualify as qualified performance-based
compensation under Code Section 162(m), shall be paid, vested or otherwise deliverable solely on
account of the attainment of one or more pre-established, objective Performance Goals established
by the Committee as set forth in Section 10(c).

          (c) Performance Goals. A Qualified Performance Award shall be paid solely on the
attainment of certain pre-established, objective performance goals (within the meaning of Code
Section 162(m)). Such Performance Goals shall be based on any one or any combination of the
following business criteria, as determined by the Committee: total or net revenue; revenue growth;
EBIT; EBITDA; operating income; net operating income after tax; pre-tax or after-tax income; cash
flow; cash flow per share; net earnings; earnings per share; profit growth; return on equity;
return on capital employed; return on assets; economic value added (or an equivalent metric); share
price performance; other earnings criteria or profit-related return ratios; successful acquisitions
of other companies or assets; successful dispositions of Subsidiaries, divisions or departments of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; successful financing efforts; total stockholder return;
market share; improvement in or attainment of expense levels; improvement in or attainment of
working capital levels; or debt reduction. Such Performance Goals may be (i) stated in absolute terms, (ii) based on one or more business
criteria that apply to the Participant, one or more Subsidiaries, business units or divisions of
the Company, or the Company as a whole, (iii) relative to other companies or specified indices,
(iv) achieved during a period

11

 

of time, or (v) as otherwise determined by the Committee. Unless
otherwise stated, a Performance Goal need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a
particular business criterion and could include, for example, maintaining the status quo or
limiting economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to specific business criteria). In
measuring a Performance Goal, the Committee may exclude certain extraordinary, unusual or
non-recurring items, provided that such exclusions are stated by the Committee at the time the
Performance Goals are determined. In interpreting Plan provisions applicable to Qualified
Performance Awards, it is the intent of the Plan to conform with the standards of Code Section
162(m) and Treasury Regulation §1.162-27(e) with respect to grants to those Participants whose
compensation is, or is likely to be, subject to Code Section 162(m), and the Committee in
establishing such goals and interpreting the Plan shall be guided by such provisions. The
Committee shall establish, in writing, the applicable Performance Goal(s) and the specific targets
related to such goal(s) prior to the earlier to occur of (1) 90 days after the commencement of the
period of service to which the Performance Goal relates and (2) the lapse of 25% of the period of
service (as scheduled in good faith at the time the goal is established), and in any event while
the outcome is substantially uncertain within the meaning of Code Section 162(m), subject to
adjustment by the Committee as it deems appropriate to reflect significant unforeseen events or
changes. A Performance Goal is objective if a third party having knowledge of the relevant facts
could determine whether the goal is met.

          (d) Payment. Upon the expiration of the performance period relating to a Performance
Award granted to a Participant, such Participant shall be entitled to receive payment of an amount
not exceeding the maximum value of the Performance Award, based on the achievement of the
Performance Goals for such performance period, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may,
within its sole discretion, pay a Performance Award under any one or more of the Performance Goals
established by the Committee with respect to such Performance Award. The Committee shall certify
in writing prior to the payment of a Performance Award that the applicable Performance Goals and
any other material terms of the grant have been satisfied. Subject to Sections 5 and
6, payment of a Performance Award may be made in cash, shares of Common Stock, other
Awards, other property, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. Payment shall be
made in a lump sum or in installments as prescribed by the Committee.

     11. Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. The Committee may grant, as a separate
Award or at the time of granting any other Award granted under the Plan (other than Options or
SARs), Awards that entitle the Participant to receive dividends or Dividend Equivalents with
respect to all or a portion of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award, in each
case subject to such terms as the Committee may establish in its discretion and as set forth in the
instrument evidencing the Award. Dividends or Dividend Equivalents may accrue interest and the
instrument evidencing the Award will specify whether dividends or Dividend Equivalents will be (a)
paid currently (b) paid at a later, specified date (such as if, and when, and to the extent such
related Award, if any, is paid), (c) deferrable by the Participant under and subject to the terms
of the applicable Deferred Compensation Plan, (d) subject to the same vesting as the Award to which
the dividends or Dividend Equivalents relate, if applicable, and/or (e) deemed to have been
reinvested in shares of Common Stock or otherwise reinvested. Where Dividend Equivalents are
deferred or subject to vesting, the Committee may permit for, or require, the conversion of
Dividend Equivalents into RSUs. RSUs arising from such a conversion of Dividend Equivalents at the
election of the Participant shall not count against the Share Limit, while RSUs arising from a
conversion of Dividend Equivalents that is required by the Committee will count against the Share
Limit.

     12. Stock Bonuses. The Committee may, in its absolute discretion, grant Stock
Bonuses in such amounts as it shall determine from time to time. Subject to the last sentence of
this Section 12, a Stock Bonus shall be paid at such time and subject to such terms,
conditions, and limitations as the Committee shall determine on the Grant Date of such Stock Bonus.
Certificates for shares of Common Stock granted as a Stock Bonus shall be issued in the name of
the Participant to whom such grant was made and delivered to such Participant as soon as practicable after the date on which such
Stock Bonus is required to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless a Stock Bonus is granted
only in lieu of cash

12

 

compensation otherwise earned by the Participant, a Stock Bonus granted
pursuant to this Section 12 shall be subject to the same minimum vesting periods as set
forth in Section 6(c).

     13. Cash Awards. The Committee may, in its absolute discretion, grant Cash Awards
in such amounts as it shall determine from time to time. A Cash Award may be granted (a) as a
separate Award, (b) in connection with the grant, issuance, vesting, exercise, or payment of
another Award under the Plan or at any time thereafter, or (c) on or after the date on which the
Participant is required to recognize income for federal income tax purposes in connection with the
grant, issuance, vesting, exercise, or payment of another Award under the Plan. Cash Awards shall
be subject to such terms, conditions, and limitations as the Committee shall determine on the Grant
Date of such Cash Award. Cash Awards intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under
Code Section 162(m) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as in the case of the
Qualified Performance Awards described in Section 10.

     14. Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee may grant such other Awards that are
payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to shares
of Common Stock as may be deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan.
Such other Awards may include, without limitation, (a) shares of Common Stock awarded purely as a
bonus and not subject to any restrictions or conditions, (b) convertible or exchangeable debt or
equity securities, (c) other rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, and
(d) Awards valued by reference to the value of shares of Common Stock or the value of securities of
or the performance of specified Subsidiaries of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless
a stock-based Award granted under this Section 14 is granted only in lieu of cash
compensation otherwise earned by the Participant, such Award shall be subject to the same minimum
vesting periods as set forth in Section 6(c).

     15. Award Exercise.

          (a) Precondition to Stock Issuance. Awards shall be exercisable in accordance with
such terms and conditions and during such periods as may be established by the Committee. No
shares of Common Stock shall be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Award, in whole or in
part, until the Company receives payment in full of the Exercise Price, if any, as provided in
Section 15(c). No Participant or any legal representative, legatee or distributee shall be
or be deemed to be a holder of any shares of Common Stock subject to such Award unless and until
such Award is exercised, the full Exercise Price is paid, and such shares are issued.

          (b) No Vesting or Exercise of Fractional Amounts. With respect to any Award that
vests in a manner that would result in fractional shares of Common Stock being issued, any
fractional share that would be one-half of one share or greater shall be rounded up to a full
share, and any fractional share that would be less than one-half of one share shall not be vested
or issued unless and until the last increment of such Award becomes vested. No Award may at any
time be exercised with respect to a fractional share. Instead the Company shall pay to the holder
of such Award cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional share on the
Exercise Date.

          (c) Form of Payment. A Participant may exercise an Award using as the form of
payment such means as the Committee may, from time to time, approve, whether in the agreement
evidencing the Award or otherwise.

          (d) Form and Time of Exercises. Except as otherwise (i) set forth in the Plan, (ii)
determined by the Committee, or (iii) set forth in the agreement or other documents evidencing the
Award, each exercise required or permitted to be made by any Participant or other person entitled
to benefits under the Plan, and any permitted modification or revocation thereof, shall be in
writing delivered to the Company at such times, in such form, and subject to such restrictions and limitations,
not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, and any other agreement, as the Committee shall
require.

13

 

     16. Transferability. Awards may be assigned or transferred only as permitted
pursuant to this Section 16. No Award may be assigned or transferred for value.

          (a) Restrictions on Transfer. Except as specifically allowed by the Committee, any
Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall, during the Participant’s lifetime, be
exercisable only by such Participant and shall not be assignable or transferable by such
Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a Qualified
Domestic Relations Order. Except as specifically allowed by the Committee, any Non-Qualified Stock
Option and any other Award granted under the Plan and any of the rights and privileges conferred
thereby shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant other than (i) pursuant to
Section 16(b), or (ii) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a
Qualified Domestic Relations Order, and such Award shall be exercisable during the Participant’s
lifetime only by the Participant.

          (b) Permitted Transfers. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be assigned
to (i) a child, stepchild, grandchild, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law,
son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships,
(ii) any person sharing the Participant’s household (other than a tenant or employee), (iii) a
trust in which the Participant or the persons described in (i) or (ii) hold more than 50% of the
beneficial interest, or (iv) a private foundation in which the Participant or the persons described
in (i) or (ii) own more than 50% of the voting interests. A transfer to any entity in which more
than 50% of the voting interests are owned by the Participant or the persons described in (i) or
(ii) in exchange for an interest in that entity shall not constitute a transfer for value.

          (c) Transfers Upon Death. Upon the death of a Participant, outstanding Awards
granted to such Participant may be exercised only by the executors or administrators of the
Participant’s estate or by any person or persons who shall have acquired such right to exercise by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution or by assignment or transfer from the Participant
as contemplated by Section 16(b) above. No transfer by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, or as contemplated by Section 16(b) above, of any Award, or the right to
exercise any Award, shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee shall have been
furnished with (i) written notice thereof and with a copy of the will, assignment, or transfer
document and/or such evidence as the Committee may deem necessary to establish the validity of the
transfer and (ii) an agreement by the transferee to comply with all the terms and conditions of the
Award that are or would have been applicable to the Participant and to be bound by the
acknowledgments made by the Participant in connection with the grant of the Award.

     17. Withholding Taxes; Other Deductions. All distributions under the Plan are
subject to withholding of all applicable taxes, and the Committee may condition the delivery of any
Awards, cash, shares of Common Stock, or other benefits under the Plan upon satisfaction of the
applicable withholding obligations. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any grant,
issuance, vesting, exercise, or payment of an Award under the Plan (a) an amount of cash or shares
of Common Stock having a value sufficient to cover withholding as required by law for any federal,
state or local taxes, and (b) any other amounts due from the Participant to the Company or to any
Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or to take such other action as may be necessary to satisfy
any such withholding or other obligations, including withholding from any other cash amounts due or
to become due from the Company to such Participant an amount equal to such taxes or obligations.
The Committee, in its discretion, also may permit the Participant to deliver to the Company, at the
time of grant, issuance, vesting, exercise, or payment of an Award, one or more shares of Common
Stock owned by such Participant and having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date of such
grant, issuance, vesting, exercise, or payment, as the case may be) up to or equal to (but not in
excess of) the amount of the taxes incurred in connection with such grant, issuance, vesting,
exercise, or payment, as the case may be.

14

 

     18. Termination of Services.

          (a) Definition of “Service.” For purposes of the Plan, unless otherwise (i)
determined by the Committee, (ii) set forth in the agreement or other documents evidencing the
Award, or (iii) set forth in an employment agreement or any other written agreement with or policy
of the Company, a Participant will be deemed to be in “Service” to the Company so long as such
individual renders continuous services on a periodic basis to the Company (or to any Parent or
Subsidiary of the Company) in the capacity of an Employee, Consultant, director, or other advisor.
In the discretion of the Committee, a Participant will be considered to be rendering continuous
services to the Company even if the type of services change, e.g., from Employee to Consultant. A
Participant will be considered to be an Employee for so long as such individual remains in the
employ of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. Except as otherwise (A)
determined by the Committee, (B) set forth in the agreement or other documents evidencing the
Award, or (C) set forth in an employment agreement or any other written agreement with or policy of
the Company, a Participant’s Service with the Company shall be deemed terminated if the
Participant’s leave of absence (including military or other bona fide leave of absence) extends for
more than 90 days and the Participant’s continued Service with the Company is not guaranteed by
contract or statute; provided that whether an authorized leave of absence, or absence in military
or government service, shall constitute termination of Service shall be determined by the Committee
in its absolute discretion.

          (b) Termination of Awards Upon Termination of Service. Except as otherwise (i)
determined by the Committee, (ii) set forth in the agreement or other documents evidencing the
Award, or (iii) set forth in an employment agreement or any other written agreement with or policy
of the Company:

               (i) Termination of Service Other than for Cause, Disability, Death, or Retirement.
If the Participant’s Service with the Company is terminated for any reason other than Cause, or
other than as the result of the Participant’s Disability, death, or Retirement, then (A) Options
granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were exercisable at the time of such
termination, shall remain exercisable until the expiration of the longer of (1) 90 days after such
termination, or (2) 30 days following the end of any blackout period to which the Participant may
be subject, on which date they shall expire, provided, however, that no Option shall be exercisable
after the expiration of its term; (B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they
were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the
date of such termination; (C) a portion of any unvested shares of Restricted Stock, RSUs, SARs,
Dividend Equivalents, Stock Bonuses, Cash Awards, or other stock-based Awards, to the extent not
otherwise forfeited or canceled on or prior to such termination, shall vest on the date of such
termination in such amount (which may be equal to zero) as determined by the Committee (1) pursuant
to a formula, (2) based on the achievement of any conditions imposed by the Committee on the Grant
Date of such Awards, or (3) otherwise in the Committee’s discretion; and (D) all other unvested
shares of Restricted Stock, RSUs, SARs, Dividend Equivalents, Stock Bonuses, Cash Awards, or other
stock-based Awards shall be forfeited as of the commencement of business on the date of the
Participant’s termination of Service.

               (ii) Termination
of Service for Cause. Except as set forth in Section 18(b)(v), in the event of the termination of a Participant’s Service for Cause, all
outstanding Awards granted to such Participant shall immediately expire and be forfeited as of the
commencement of business on the date of such termination.

               (iii) Termination of Service Upon Disability or Death. If the Participant’s Service
with the Company is terminated as the result of the Participant’s Disability or death, (A) all of
the unvested Options and SARs granted to such Participant shall become fully and immediately
exercisable, (B) all Incentive Stock Options granted to such Participant shall remain exercisable
until the expiration of one year after such termination or, if earlier, until the expiration of
their term(s), on which date they shall expire, (C) all Non-Qualified Stock Options, and SARs
granted to such Participant shall remain exercisable until the expiration of one year after such
termination, on which date they shall expire, and (D)

15

 

all other Awards granted to such Participant shall immediately be forfeited as of the
commencement of business on the date of such termination.

               (iv) Termination of Service Upon Retirement. To the extent provided in the
agreement evidencing a Participant’s Award, if the Participant’s Service with the Company is
terminated as a result of the Participant’s Retirement, the Participant’s Award will terminate in
the manner set forth in the agreement governing the Award. If the agreement governing the Award
does not address Retirement, this Section 18(b)(iv) shall not apply to the Award and, with
respect to such Award, Section 18(b)(i) shall be applied without regard to the term
“Retirement” contained therein.

               (v) Termination of Performance Awards Upon Termination of Service. With respect to
Performance Awards, if the Participant’s Service is terminated for any reason prior to the
expiration of the applicable performance period then such Performance Awards shall immediately be
forfeited as of the commencement of business on the date of such termination, except (i) as may be
determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion, or (ii) as may be otherwise
provided in the agreement evidencing such Performance Award.

          (c) Limitations with Respect to Incentive Stock Options. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Plan to the contrary, the period in which any Options that are intended to be
Incentive Stock Options may remain exercisable following the termination of a Participant’s Service
with the Company shall not exceed the maximum period of time that such Options may remain
exercisable pursuant to Code Section 422.

          (d) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 18, the term “year” means
365 calendar days beginning with the calendar day on which the relevant event occurs.

     19. Plan Amendment and Termination; Bifurcation of the Plan. The Committee may
amend, change, make additions to, or suspend or terminate the Plan as it may, from time to time,
deem necessary or appropriate and in the best interests of the Company; provided that the Committee
may not, without the consent of the affected Participant, take any action that disqualifies any
Incentive Stock Option previously granted under the Plan for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option
or that adversely affects or impairs the rights of any Award outstanding under the Plan; and
provided further that, to the extent that stockholder approval of an amendment to the Plan is
required by applicable law or the requirements of any securities exchange or trading market on
which the Common Stock is listed or traded, such amendment shall not be effective prior to approval
by the Company’s stockholders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the
use of any provision of the Plan to Participants who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act
without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Participants.

16

 

     20. Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Events.

          (a) Adjustment of Shares Available. The Committee shall have authority to
proportionately adjust the aggregate number and type of shares available for Awards under the Plan,
the maximum number and type of shares or other securities that may be subject to Awards to any
individual under the Plan, the number and type of shares or other securities covered by each
outstanding Award, and the Exercise Price per share (but not the total price) for Awards
outstanding under the Plan as a result of any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares
of Common Stock resulting from the payment of any stock dividend or from any stock split, reverse
stock split, split-up, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off,
reorganization, or recapitalization of shares or any like capital adjustment in order to prevent
the enlargement or dilution of rights of the Participants under such Awards.

          (b) Change in Control. Except as otherwise (i) determined by the Committee, (ii)
set forth in the agreement or other documents evidencing the Award, or (iii) set forth in an
employment agreement or any other written agreement between a Participant and the Company or any
policy of the Company, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, (A) all unvested Options and
SARs granted to each Participant shall become vested and fully and immediately exercisable and
shall remain exercisable until their expiration, termination, or cancellation, (B) all shares of
Restricted Stock, RSUs, Dividend Equivalents, Stock Bonuses, Cash Awards, and other stock-based
Awards granted pursuant to the terms of the Plan that have not yet vested shall immediately vest,
(C) the Committee (as constituted immediately prior to such Change in Control) shall determine, in
its sole discretion, whether Performance Awards, for which the requisite Performance Goals have not
been satisfied or for which the performance period has not expired, shall immediately be paid or
whether such Performance Awards shall remain outstanding according to their respective terms, and
(D) the Acquiror shall either assume the Company’s rights and obligations under all outstanding
Awards or substitute for outstanding Awards substantially equivalent Awards for the Acquiror’s
stock. The vesting and/or exercise of any Award that is permissible solely by reason of this
Section 20(b) shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Change in Control.

          (c) Adjustments to Outstanding Restricted Stock, RSUs, and SARs. If a Participant
receives any securities or other property (including dividends paid in cash) with respect to a
share of Restricted Stock, RSU, or SAR that has not vested as of the date of the payment of any
stock dividend or any stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, combination or exchange of
shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, reorganization, or recapitalization of shares or any like
capital adjustment, then such securities or other property will not vest until such share of
Restricted Stock, RSU, or SAR vests and shall be held by the Company as if such securities or other
property were non-vested shares of Restricted Stock, RSUs, or SARs.

          (d) Adjustment Upon Certain Mergers, etc. Subject to any required action by the
stockholders of the Company, if the Company is the surviving corporation in any merger or
consolidation (except a merger or consolidation as a result of which the holders of shares of
Common Stock receive securities of another corporation), each Award outstanding on the date of such
merger or consolidation shall entitle the Participant to acquire upon exercise, if applicable, the
securities that a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award would have
received in such merger or consolidation.

          (e) Adjustment Upon Certain Other Transactions. In the event of a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, a merger or
consolidation involving the Company in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or a
merger or consolidation involving the Company in which the Company is the surviving corporation but
the holders of shares of Common Stock receive securities of another entity and/or other property,
including cash, the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, have the power to (i) cancel,
effective immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, each Award outstanding immediately
prior to such event (whether or not then exercisable) and, in full consideration of such
cancellation, pay to the Participant to whom such Award

17

 

was granted an amount in cash, for each share of Common Stock subject to such Award, equal to
the excess of (A) the value, as determined by the Committee in its absolute discretion, of the
property (including cash) received by the holder of a share of Common Stock as a result of such
event over (B) the Exercise Price, if any, of such Award; or (ii) provide for the exchange of each
Award outstanding immediately prior to such event (whether or not then exercisable) for an option
on some or all of the property for which such Award is exchanged and, incident thereto, make an
equitable adjustment as determined by the Committee in its absolute discretion in the Exercise
Price of the Award, or the number of shares or amount of property subject to the Award or, if
appropriate, provide for a cash payment to the Participant to whom such Award was granted in full
or partial consideration for the exchange of the Award.

          (f) No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, or in any agreement
governing the Award, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or
consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or
decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger or
consolidation of the Company or any other entity. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, or in
any agreement governing the Award, 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 of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award or
the Exercise Price of any Award.

     21. Approval by Stockholders; Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan was
originally adopted by the Board on March 8, 1991, and has subsequently been amended and restated on
several occasions. The Plan was most recently amended and restated by the Board on February 9,
2006. The Plan shall be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for their approval at a
regular or special meeting to be held within 12 months after the adoption of this Plan by the
Board. Stockholder approval shall be evidenced by the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock present in person or by proxy and voting at
the meeting. Upon stockholder approval, (a) the terms and conditions of the Plan as of the
Effective Date (as the Plan may be subsequently amended) shall control all Awards granted under the
Plan prior to or after the Effective Date, provided that, without the consent of the affected
Participant, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall not be interpreted in a manner that
disqualifies any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan prior to the Effective Date for
treatment as an Incentive Stock Option or that adversely affects or impairs the rights of any Award
outstanding under the Plan prior to the Effective Date, and (b) the Plan shall remain in full force
and effect through the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, unless sooner terminated by the
Committee. After the Plan is terminated, no future Awards may be granted under the Plan, but
Awards previously granted shall remain outstanding in accordance with their applicable terms and
conditions and the Plan’s terms and conditions. If this Plan is not approved by the stockholders
within 12 months after its adoption by the Board, this Plan shall automatically terminate and the
Company’s Amended and Restated 1991 Incentive Stock Plan, as then amended, shall remain in full
force and effect to the same extent and with the same effect as though this Plan had never been
adopted.

     22. General Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the
Company shall have no liability to deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan or make any
other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless such delivery or distribution would comply
with all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the requirements of the Securities Act),
and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or other trading market on which the
Common Stock is listed or traded. To the extent that the Plan provides for issuance of stock
certificates to reflect the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the issuance may be effected on a
non-certificated basis to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of
any stock exchange or other trading market on which the Common Stock is listed or traded.

     23. Compliance With Applicable Law.

          (a) Exchange Act Section 16. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the
contrary, only the entire Board or a Committee composed of two or more Non-Employee Directors may

18

 

make determinations regarding grants of Awards to persons subject to Section 16 under the
Exchange Act.

          (b) Code Section 162(m). The Committee shall have the authority and discretion to
determine the extent to which Awards will conform to the requirements of Code Section 162(m) and to
take such action, establish such procedures, and impose such restrictions as the Committee
determines to be necessary or appropriate to conform to such requirements. To the extent any
provisions of the Plan or action by the Committee or Board fails to so comply, it shall be deemed
null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee or Board.

          (c) Code Section 409A. To the extent an Award granted under this Plan is subject to
Code Section 409A because it both falls within the scope of Code Section 409A and does not satisfy
an applicable exemption from Code Section 409A (“Section 409A Award”), the Section 409A Award is
intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and any related regulations or other
guidance promulgated with respect to such section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the
Internal Revenue Service.

     24. No Rights as a Stockholder. No person shall have any rights as a stockholder of
the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by or relating to any Award granted
pursuant to this Plan until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate with respect to such
shares or the date of issuance of shares on a non-certificated basis pursuant to policies adopted
by the Company from time to time.

     25. No Special Employment Rights; No Right to Awards. Nothing contained in the Plan
or any Award shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to the continuation of his or
her Service by the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, subject to the
terms of any separate employment or consulting agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate
such Service or to increase or decrease the compensation of the Participant from the rate in
existence on the Grant Date of an Award. No person shall have any claim or right to receive any
Award under this Plan. The grant of an Award to a Participant at any time shall neither require the
Committee to grant an Award to such Participant or any other Participant or other person at any
other time nor preclude the Committee from making subsequent grants to such Participant or any
other Participant or other person.

     26. Expenses and Receipts. The expenses of the Plan shall be paid by the Company.
Any proceeds received by the Company in connection with any Award will be used for general
corporate purposes.

     27. Failure to Comply. In addition to the remedies of the Company elsewhere
provided for herein, failure by a Participant to comply with any of the terms and conditions of the
Plan or the agreement executed by such Participant evidencing an Award, unless such failure is
remedied by such Participant within 10 days after having been notified of such failure by the
Committee, shall be grounds for the cancellation and forfeiture of such Award, in whole or in part
as the Committee, in its absolute discretion, may determine.

     28. Plan Not Exclusive. This Plan is not intended to be the exclusive means by
which the Company may issue options, warrants, or other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock.

     29. Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by, and all questions arising
hereunder shall be determined in accordance with, the laws of the State of Arizona, excluding any
conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or
interpretation of this Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.

     30. Limitation of Implied Rights. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall,
by reason of participation in the Plan, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or
property of the

19

 

Company or any Subsidiary whatsoever including, without limitation, any specific funds,
assets, or other property that the Company, in its sole discretion, may set aside in anticipation
of a liability under the Plan. A Participant shall have only a contractual right to the Common
Stock or other amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company, and
nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute an obligation to pay any benefits to any person.

     31. Unfunded Plan. This Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may
be established with respect to Participants under this Plan, any such accounts shall be used merely
as a bookkeeping convenience, including bookkeeping accounts established by a third party
administrator retained by the Company to administer the Plan. The Company shall not be required to
segregate any assets for purposes of this Plan or Awards hereunder, nor shall the Company, the
Board or the Committee be deemed to be a trustee of any benefit to be granted under this Plan. Any
liability or obligation of the Company to any Participant with respect to an Award 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. Neither the Company nor the
Board nor the Committee shall be required to give any security or bond for the performance of any
obligation that may be created by this Plan.

     32. Successors. All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to
Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of
such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise,
of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

     33. Substitution of Awards. Subject to Sections 3, 19, and
20, at the discretion of the Committee, a Participant may be offered an election to
substitute an Award for another Award or Awards of the same or different type. The Grant Date for
any Award granted pursuant to the substitution provisions of this Section 33 will have the
Grant Date of the original Award.
