4. Provisions Applicable to All Incentive Awards

	 	(a)	 	Enterprise-Wide Performance Goals. The Committee shall have the sole
authority to establish the Performance Goals for the Enterprise-Wide Performance
Metrics each Performance Period. In addition, for each Section 16 Officer, the
Committee shall determine the extent to which each applicable Enterprise-Wide
Performance Metric shall be weighted in determining weightings from Section 16 Officer
to Section 16 Officer, Award to Award and Performance Period to Performance Period.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Business Unit Performance Metrics. The Administrator shall establish
a pre-approved list of the Performance Goals for the Business Unit Performance Metrics
each Performance Period. The head of each business unit, division or operating unit
may select one or more Performance Goals from such pre-approved list and shall
determine the extent to which such Performance Goals apply to Participants within such
business unit, division or operating unit. The head of each business unit, division
or operating unit may propose additional Performance Goals for the Business Unit
Performance Metrics and the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, add any such
proposed Performance Goals to the pre-approved list described in the first sentence of
this Section 4(b).
	 
	 	(c)	 	Adjustments to Performance Goals. The Administrator, in its sole
discretion, shall have the authority to adjust any Performance Goals (i) in the event
of, or in anticipation of, any unusual or extraordinary corporate item, transaction,
event or development affecting the Company, or any of its Affiliates, divisions or
operating units (to the extent applicable to such Performance Goal) or (ii) in
recognition of, or in anticipation of, any other unusual or nonrecurring events
affecting the Company or any of its Affiliates, divisions or operating units (to the
extent applicable to such Performance Goal), or the financial statements of the
Company or any of its Affiliates, divisions or operating units (to the extent
applicable to such Performance Goal), or of changes in applicable rules, rulings,
regulations or other requirements of any governmental body, accounting principles, law
or business conditions.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Minimum Financial Performance Trigger. The Committee shall establish
the Minimum Financial Performance Trigger for each Plan Year. If such Minimum
Financial Performance Trigger is not satisfied, then no amount shall be payable under
the Plan for such Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall have
the authority, in its sole discretion, to amend or modify the Minimum Financial
Performance Trigger, or to establish a Minimum Financial Performance Trigger of zero.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Bonus Pool and Incentive Award Formula. After the end of a Plan
Year, the Committee shall establish, for such Plan Year, a bonus pool (the “Bonus
Pool”) equal to the aggregate amount of all individual Participant Awards (for
purposes of this sentence, each Participant Award is determined by multiplying the
Participant’s Incentive Opportunity and Wages) for such Plan Year based on the level
of achievement of the applicable Performance Goals. The Committee shall have the
right, in its sole discretion, to make upward or downward adjustments to the Bonus
Pool. The actual amount of a Participant’s Award for a Performance Period is the
product of such Participant’s (i) Incentive Opportunity, (ii) Wages and (iii)
Individual Performance Multiplier. The aggregate of all individual Participant Awards
determined in accordance with the

2009 UAL Corporation

Annual Incentive Plan

4

 

preceding sentence for a Plan Year shall not exceed the Bonus Pool (but may be less
than the Bonus Pool).

	 	(f)	 	Award Levels; Eligibility for Payment. The Administrator shall
establish for each Participant the amount payable with respect to each Award as
calculated in accordance with Section 4(e). Except as otherwise determined by the
Administrator in its discretion, in order to be eligible for payment in respect of an
Award, a Participant must be an employee on the first business day following the end
of the applicable Performance Period (such date, the “Required Date”);
provided, however, that a Participant who is terminated for Cause
prior to the payment date shall not be entitled to any payment in respect of an Award.
Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, a
Participant whose employment terminates with the Employer during the Performance
Period shall not be entitled to receive payment of an Award.
	 
	 	(g)	 	Timing of Payment. Awards shall be paid in cash as soon as
practicable following the Administrator’s determination of the Awards with respect to
the applicable Performance Period, but in no event will such Awards be paid later than
March 15 of the year following the year in which the Required Date occurs;
provided, however, that in the case of a Participant whose employment
terminates on or before the Required Date, if the Administrator determines that such
Participant shall be entitled to payment in respect of all or a portion of the
Participant’s Award with respect to the applicable Performance Period, then such
payment shall be made to such Participant not later than March 15 of the year
following the year of termination.
	 
	 	(h)	 	Withholding. The Company may deduct and withhold from any amounts
payable under the Plan such Federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes as are
required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.
	 
	 	(i)	 	No Limitations on Other Plans. Nothing contained in the Plan will be
deemed in any way to limit or restrict the ability of the Company, any of its
Affiliates or the Administrator to make any award or payment to any person under any
other plan, agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter
in effect.

5. Administration

	 	(a)	 	Authority of Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and
applicable law, and in addition to other express powers and authorizations conferred
on the Committee by the Plan, the Committee shall have sole and plenary authority to
administer the Plan, including, but not limited to, the authority to (i) designate
Participants, (ii) approve and make adjustments to the Bonus Pool, (iii) establish and
make any adjustments to the Minimum Financial Performance Trigger, (iv) establish the
Enterprise-Wide Performance Metrics and related Performance Goals, (v) establish the
Business Unit Performance Metrics and related Performance Goals, (vi) determine the
terms and conditions of any Awards, (vii) establish, amend, suspend or waive the Plan
Rules, (viii) interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, correct any
default in and/or supply any omission in, the Plan and any instrument or agreement
relating to, or Award made under, the Plan and (ix) make any other determination and
take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the
administration of the Plan.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Delegation of Authority to Section 16 Officers. The Committee may
delegate, on such terms and conditions as it determines in its sole discretion, to one
or more Section 16 Officers of the Company the authority and responsibility to
administer the Plan with respect to Awards to Participants who are not Section 16
Officers and all necessary and appropriate decisions and determinations with respect
thereto. The Administrator may exercise the authority of the Committee set forth in
Section 5(a) (except for (ii), (iii) and (iv)) with respect to Participants who are
not Section 16 Officers.

	 	(c)	 	Administrator Decisions. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the
Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations and other decisions under or
with respect to the Plan, Plan Rules or any Award shall be within the sole and plenary
discretion of the Administrator, may be made at any time and shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon the Company, its Affiliates and all Participants. The
terms and conditions of Awards and the Administrator’s determinations and
interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each
Participant and may be made selectively among Participants, whether or not such
Participants are similarly situated.

6. Amendment and Termination of the Plan

     The Plan may at any time be amended, modified, suspended or terminated, as determined by the
Board in its sole discretion. Any Awards hereunder may at any time be amended, modified, suspended
or terminated, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

7. Section 409A

	 	(a)	 	It is intended that the provisions of the Plan comply with Section 409A of
the Code (“Section 409A”), and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed
and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or
penalties under Section 409A.
	 
	 	(b)	 	No Participant and no creditor or beneficiary of any Participant shall have
the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A)
payable under the Plan to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment,
pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section
409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to a
Participant or for a Participant’s benefit under the Plan may not be reduced by, or
offset against, any amount owing by such Participant to the Company or any of its
Affiliates.
	 
	 	(c)	 	If, at the time of a Participant’s “separation from service” (within the
meaning of Section 409A), (i) such Participant shall be a specified employee (within
the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the
Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith determination
that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning
of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the
six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties
under Section 409A, then the Company shall not pay such amount on the otherwise
scheduled payment date but shall instead pay it on the first business day after such
six-month period. Such amount shall be paid without interest, unless otherwise
determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, or as otherwise provided in
any applicable employment agreement between the Company and the relevant Participant.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in light of the
uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, the Company
reserves the right to make amendments to the Plan as the Company deems necessary or
desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any
case, Participants are solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes
and penalties that may arise in connection with Awards (including any taxes arising
under Section 409A), and neither the Company or any of its Affiliates shall have any
obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any Participant harmless from any or all of
such taxes or penalties.

8. Not a Contract

     Neither this Plan nor any Award hereunder constitutes a contract of employment and
participation in the Plan will not give any employee the right to be retained in the service of the
Company or any Affiliate or to continue in any position or at any level of compensation. Nothing
contained in the Plan will prohibit or interfere with the Company’s or any Affiliate’s right to
assign projects, tasks and responsibilities to any employee or alter the nature of the Company’s or
any Affiliate’s rights with respect to the employee’s employment relationship, including the right
to terminate any employee at any time, with or without notice, and for any reason within the
constraints of applicable law. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this
Plan is not intended to be, and shall not be construed as, a contract between any employee and the
Company or any Employer, and no employee shall have any vested interest in the Plan prior to
receipt of any payment described herein.

9. No Trust or Fund Created

     Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund
of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate, on one hand, and a
Participant, on the other. To the extent that any Participant acquires a right to receive payments
from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the
right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or such Affiliate.

10. ERISA

     The Plan is a cash bonus performance incentive plan and is not intended to be (and will not be
construed or administered as) an employee benefit plan within the meaning of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

11. Collective Bargaining

     As it relates to Participants who are subject to the provisions of a collective bargaining
agreement pursuant to which the Employer has agreed to provide such Participants with participation
in a performance incentive plan, this Plan is maintained pursuant to such agreement. As it relates
to Collective Bargaining Employees, the Company (i) will provide such information requested by the
representative of such class or craft of employees to permit it to audit the calculation of the
Company’s performance under the Performance Goals established under the Plan for each Performance
Period, and (ii) will provide expedited arbitration under the terms of the applicable collective
bargaining agreement for any dispute with the representative of such craft or class of employees
relating to the determination and payment of an Award under this Plan.

12. Successors

     All obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of 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.

13. Governing Law

     The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to
the Plan and any Award hereunder shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of
Illinois, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof.

14. Severability

     If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Participant or Award, or would disqualify the Plan
or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or
deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended
without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the
Award, such provision shall be construed or deemed stricken as to such jurisdiction, Participant or
Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

15. Headings

     Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to
facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the
construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof.

16. Effective Date of the Plan

     The Plan shall be effective as of the date of its adoption by the Committee and with respect
to Performance Periods commencing on or after January 1, 2009.

the Company has provided the notice to the Trustee that the Executive’s right to 100% of the
Trust Fund has immediately vested, such payment shall be made within 30 days of such
notice).”

 

 

          3. Amendment and Restatement of Section 2(f). Section 2(f) of the Trust Agreement
shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“(f) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 2(b), the Company may, at any time, accelerate
the vesting of the Executive’s rights with respect to some or all of the Trust’s principal
by providing written notice to the Trustee specifying the portion of the Trust’s principal
with respect to which the Executive rights have become vested. In such event, such portion
shall be paid in full to the Executive in a single in-kind distribution within 30 days
following the Company’s delivery of such notice to a brokerage account designated by the
Executive in writing.”

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment No. 4 as of the date first above
written.
