ALBERTO-CULVER COMPANY

1994 SHAREHOLDER VALUE INCENTIVE PLAN, AS AMENDED  

General  

        The Alberto-Culver Company 1994 Shareholder Value Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan"), provides that participating key salaried employees ("Participants") of
Alberto-Culver Company (the "Company") and its subsidiaries may elect, or in some cases may be required, to take all or part of the payment of their awards under the Plan in Common Stock, $.22 par
value, of the Company ("Shares"). 

        The
Compensation and Leadership Development Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") or the Board of Directors (the "Board") may amend the Plan at any time
provided that no such amendment will adversely affect or impair previously issued grants. The Compensation Committee or the Board may terminate the Plan at any time but no such termination shall have
any impact on grants issued prior to the termination date. 

        The
Plan is not subject to any provisions of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and is not qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended. 

        Persons
to whom this document is delivered who wish additional information about the Plan and its administrators should direct their request to Alberto-Culver Company, 2525 Armitage
Avenue, Melrose Park, Illinois 60160, Attention of Secretary, or may telephone the Company at (708)450-3000. 

        Unless
otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, the Plan will be submitted to stockholders for reapproval and readoption no less often than every five years. 

Purpose  

        The purpose of the Plan is to advance the best interests of the Company by providing key salaried employees who have substantial responsibility for the Company's
management and growth with additional incentives based upon Total Shareholder Return (as defined below). These incentives are designed to (i) more closely link the interests of key salaried
employees with shareholders; (ii) increase the personal stake of such employees in the success and growth of the Company; and (iii) encourage such employees to remain in the employ of
the Company. 

Eligibility  

        Key salaried employees of the Company and its subsidiaries as determined by the Compensation Committee. 

Shares to be Offered  

        The Company anticipates that all Shares granted under the Plan will be treasury shares. Treasury shares may be purchased by the Company from time to time in the
open market or in privately-negotiated transactions. 

Method and Time of Payment  

        At the time performance units are granted to Participants, the Compensation Committee will establish objectives for a three-year period ("Performance
Period") based on the percentile rank of the Shares measured by Total Shareholder Return (as defined below) among the companies comprising the (i) Standard & Poor's 500 Index,
(ii) Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index, (iii) Standard & Poor's Small Cap 600 Index, (iv) Standard & Poor's Super Composite 1500 Index, (v) Russell
3000 Index, or 

1

 

(vi) Russell
2000 Index. The index chosen by the Compensation Committee for a particular Performance Period shall be referred to as the "Applicable Index." No award will be payable if the
Company's Total Shareholder Return as a percentile among the Applicable Index companies is less than the 40th percentile, (ii) the maximum award payable per performance unit will
be $2,000 and (iii) if the Company's Total Shareholder Return is negative, the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, not pay any award or reduce an award otherwise payable with respect
to such performance units, notwithstanding the fact that the Company's Total Shareholder Return as a percentile among the Applicable Index companies is equal to or greater than the 40th
percentile. Awards are distributed on or before the 15th day of the third month following the end of the applicable Performance Period. 

        "Total
Shareholder Return" means the percentage by which the ending per share price of common stock (determined as the average closing price for the ten trading days prior to and
including the last date of the applicable Performance Period), as adjusted for any stock split, reclassification or other recapitalization, plus reinvested dividends (the "Ending Share Price"),
exceeds the beginning per share price of the common stock (determined as the average closing price for the ten trading days prior to and including the first date of the applicable Performance Period). 

        Except
as provided in the following sentence, each Participant will be eligible to receive their award in cash, Shares or a combination thereof, depending on the Company's Total
Shareholder Return. For grants made on or before April 28, 2005, Participants owning less than their applicable required holdings of Shares (as such requirements are set by the Compensation
Committee from time to time) will be required to receive at least 50% of their award, less applicable withholding taxes in Shares. From grants made after April 28, 2005, Participants owning
less than their applicable required holdings of Shares (as such requirements are set by the Compensation Committee from time to time) will be required to receive 100% of their award, less applicable
withholding taxes, in Shares. Awards payable in Shares will be the number of shares that a Participant could have purchased at the Ending Share Price of the Shares had such Participant used the
applicable percentage of his or her award, less withholding taxes, to purchase the Shares. Elections to receive Shares shall be submitted to the Compensation Committee when requested, which in no
event shall be after the end of the applicable Performance Period. 

        If
a Participant's employment is terminated for any reason other than death, Retirement, Disability or a Change in Control (as Retirement, Disability and Change in Control are defined in
the Plan), all rights to payment under any outstanding performance unit shall be immediately canceled. In the event a Participant's employment is terminated prior to the end of a Performance Period
because of death, Retirement or Disability, the extent to which a performance unit shall be deemed to be earned and payable (solely in cash and without regard to any elections to the contrary) shall
be established by prorating the award based on the number of full calendar months the Participant was employed during the Performance Period. 

        In
the event of a Change in Control, all or a pro-rata portion of the outstanding performance units, based on the number of fiscal years of each Performance Period that have
elapsed and the Total shareholder Return for the company as of the date of the Change in Control compared to the Total Shareholder Return for the Applicable Index companies as of the end of the last
quarter for which such information is available, will become payable in cash within 30 days following such Change in Control. 

Restrictions on Resale  

        Shares acquired by employees who are not in a control relationship with the Company may be sold by such employees without registration under the Securities Act of
1933 (the "Securities Act"). Public resale by employees who are in a control relationship will be subject to registration or an exemption therefrom, such as compliance with the requirements of
Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Generally, a 

2

 

person
is in a control relationship with the Company if he or she has the power, through ownership of shares or his or her position within the Company, to influence or affect corporate affairs. 

        In
addition, certain officers of the Company are subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") which generally provides for
the recovery by the Company of profits realized from the purchase and sale, or sale and purchase, of the shares of common stock of the company within any six-month period. 

Transferability  

        Except as expressly provided in the Plan, the rights of a participant and any awards under the Plan may not be assigned or transferred except by will and the laws
of descent and distribution. 

Administration of Plan  

        The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has full and final authority in its discretion to interpret conclusively the
Plan, to adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the Plan and to make all other determination necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. Members of the Compensation Committee are
appointed by the Board of Directors and serve at the pleasure of the Board. 

Ownership of Shares  

        Participants are not deemed to be the owner of the Shares distributable under the Plan until all conditions for the delivery of such shares have been satisfied
and the shares have been delivered and have no right to vote such shares or receive dividends prior thereto. 

FEDERAL TAXES  

        The following discussion is not intended to be a complete statement of the U.S. Federal tax consequences of the grant of Shares pursuant to the Plan, or the
disposition of Shares after their acquisition. Because of the complexities of the U.S. Federal tax laws and possible changes in such laws from time to time, employees should consult their own tax
advisers for further information regarding such consequences and, in addition, any state and local income tax consequences. 

        A
Participant in the Plan who elects to receive Shares in payment of his or her award will be deemed to have received taxable ordinary income, subject to applicable withholding taxes,
equal to the value of the Shares received at the time of receipt of such shares, and the Company will be entitled to a tax deduction in such amount. Any further gain or loss upon the disposition of
the Shares by the Participant will be treated as capital gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the amount realized upon disposition and the amount of ordinary income recognized at the
time of the receipt of such shares, which will be short-term or long-term depending upon how long the employee owned the shares. 

DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE  

        The documents described below, which have been incorporated by reference in the registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act, are

MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN  

 (as amended and restated through January 22, 2004)  

	1.
	Establishment.    Alberto-Culver Company and its subsidiaries hereby establish the Management Incentive Plan ("MIP") for key
salaried employees of the Company. The MIP provides for annual awards to be made to Participants based upon financial performance and achievement of Individual Bonus Objectives. This MIP is
established as an unfunded, non-qualified incentive compensation plan intended for the benefit of employees who are among a select group of management and/or highly compensated
participants. Nothing contained in this MIP and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of this MIP shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between
the Company and the Participant, his designated beneficiary or any other person. Any funds which may be invested under the provisions of this MIP shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the
general assets of the Company and no person other than the Company shall by virtue of the provisions of this MIP have any interest in such funds. To the extent that any person acquires a right to
receive payments from the Company under this MIP, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

	2.
	Purpose.    The purpose of the MIP is to attract and retain in the employ of the Company persons possessing outstanding
management skills and competence who will contribute substantially to the success of the Company. The MIP is intended to provide incentives to such persons to exert their maximum efforts on behalf of
the Company by rewarding them with additional compensation when the Company or Profit Center and/or the Participant have achieved the financial performance and Individual Business Objectives,

	c.
	"Change

meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the rules and regulations thereunder or (ii) a "non-employee director" within the meaning of
Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder ("Section 16"), the Committee shall set up a subcommittee comprised solely of outside directors and
non-employee directors for purposes of all matters arising under this MIP involving "officers" within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(f) under Section 16 ("Executive
Officer") and Covered Employees as defined herein.

	e.
	"Company"
means Alberto-Culver Company or a Subsidiary.

thereunder during the Plan Year at issue.

September 30).

Center" means a division or Subsidiary of the Company which is responsible for preparing and submitting annual sales and pre-tax profit (loss) objectives.

	n.
	"Subsidiary"

	5.
	Eligibility.    Participation in the MIP is limited to key salaried Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Each Plan
Year, the Committee shall designate those eligible Employees who will participate in the MIP during that Plan Year. In the event an employee who would be eligible to participate in the MIP is hired
after the beginning of the Plan Year, the Committee may, but need not, designate such employee as a Participant for such Plan Year; provided, however, that no employee shall be eligible to participate
in the MIP for any Plan Year in which he or she was employed with the Company for less than four months. In the event a new employee is designated as a Participant, the Committee shall notify the new
Participant of his or her financial performance award opportunities and his or her Individual Business Objectives on which any cash award will be based. The Committee shall make such adjustments to
the new Participant's actual cash award as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to take into account the fact that such Participant was not employed for the entire Plan Year.

	6.
	Award Opportunities.    Actual awards can range from 0% to 100% of the Bonus Award Opportunity (a maximum of 200% of Base
Salary or $4.0 million, whichever is less) based on actual performance compared to the performance objectives established for the Plan Year. The total Bonus Award Opportunity will relate to the
financial performance of the Company, one or more Profit Centers, or Individual Business Objectives or any combination thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary hereinabove set forth in this
Section 6 or in Section 8 or 9 of the MIP, but subject in all respects to Sections 7 and 14 of the MIP, any Bonus Award Opportunity and the amount of any annual award, other than a
Change in Control Award (as such term is defined in Section 14.b of the MIP), payable to any Participant other than a Covered Employee may be (i) increased or decreased by up to 35% of
such Participant's Base Salary as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine based on such factors and circumstances as the Committee shall deem appropriate or (ii) decreased by
such amount as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine in the event a Participant (a) is found to have violated any policy contained in the applicable Compliance Policy Manual,
(b) is placed on probation at any time during the Plan Year, (c) has engaged in purposeful diversion, and/or (d) has engaged in activities intended to enhance current Plan Year
awards to the detriment of future periods (e.g. inadequate marketing expenditures that artificially increase short-term profits, unnecessary year-end loading shipments or
promotions that build sales for the short-term, etc.)

	7.
	Maximum Award Payable.    The maximum award payable under the MIP to a single Participant may not exceed the lesser of
$4.0 million or 200% of such Participant's Base Salary per fiscal year of the Company.

	8.
	Financial Performance Award Opportunities.    Each Participant will be assigned financial performance award opportunities for
the Company and/or the Profit Center for the Plan Year. 

2

 

Financial
performance award opportunities will be based, in whole or in part, upon one or more of the following: targeted levels of sales, operating earnings, operating margin, pre-tax
earnings, pre-tax margin, net earnings, earnings per share, return on stockholders' equity and, except for Covered Employees, any other measurements the Committee shall deem appropriate.
For purposes of the MIP, "operating earnings" will mean pre-tax earnings before non-recurring and other unusual items reported separately in the Company's income statement. 

Each
Participant will be notified in writing ("Participant Letter") of his or her Bonus Award Opportunity, the Participant's financial performance opportunities set for the Company and/or his or her
Profit Center, if applicable, and the portion of his or her Bonus Award Opportunity allocated to the Participant's Individual Business Objectives, if any. The Participant Letter will specify the
percentage of the Bonus Award Opportunity that will be earned based upon the extent to which such objectives are achieved, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 6. 

At
the end of each Plan Year, the Committee shall certify the awards that have been attained by each Participant. Except as otherwise provided in Section 14 hereof, no award may be payable to a
Participant prior to such certification. 

The
Committee shall have the sole authority to set all financial performance opportunities and to modify such financial performance opportunities during the Plan Year as deemed appropriate; provided,
however, that the Committee may not modify the performance objectives during a Plan Year to increase the award payable to a Covered Employee. 

	9.
	Individual Business Objectives.    Except for Covered Employees, the Committee, at its sole discretion, may allocate a portion
of a Participant's Bonus Award Opportunity for the Plan Year to the Participant's Individual Business Objectives. Subject to Section 7, awards for the achievement of these objectives can range
from 0% to 150% of the Bonus Award Opportunity assigned thereto. The Committee shall determine the actual level of performance achieved by Participants for their Individual Business Objectives. 

10.   Administration—Powers and Duties of the Committee.  

	a.
	Administration.    The Committee shall be responsible for the administration of the MIP. The Committee, by majority action, is
authorized to interpret the MIP, to prescribe, amend, and rescind rules and regulations relating to the MIP, to provide for conditions and assurances deemed necessary or advisable to protect the
interest of the Company and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the MIP. Determinations, interpretations, or other actions made or taken by the Committee
pursuant to the provisions of the MIP shall be final and binding and conclusive for all purposes and upon all persons whomsoever. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or
determination made in good faith with respect to the MIP or any annual award made hereunder.

	b.
	Amendment, Modification, and Termination of MIP.    The Board of Directors or the Committee may at any time terminate, and
from time to time may amend or modify the MIP, except that no amendment by the Committee or the Board of Directors shall increase the amount of an annual award payable to a Covered Employee for
performance achieved during the Plan Year of such amendment or any previous Plan Year or allow a member of the Committee to be a Participant. Termination of the MIP shall not be effective with respect
to the Plan Year in which it occurs. 

11.   Payment of Annual Award.  

	a.
	Payment of Award.    The Company shall pay the annual award to the Participant after the award has been determined and
certified by the Committee, but no later than December 15th of each year.

	b.
	Changes in Employment Status.    Except as set forth in the following sentence, if a Participant's employment terminates
during a Plan Year or after the end of the Plan Year, but prior to the payment of the annual award, no award will be payable for that Plan Year. If the 

3

 

Participant's
employment terminates during the Plan Year or after the end of the Plan Year but prior to the payment of the annual award due to death, disability or retirement, the Committee shall have
the sole authority and discretion to award a Participant (or his or her beneficiary) a portion of the annual award that would otherwise be payable with respect to that Plan Year. For purposes of the
MIP, (i) "retirement" shall be reached when a Participant's employment terminates and at the time of such termination the sum of such Participant's age and years of service as an employee of
the Company equals or exceeds 75 years and (ii) "disability" shall have the meaning provided in the Company's applicable long-term disability plan and such disability
continues for more than three months or, in the absence of such a definition, when a Participant becomes totally disabled as determined by a physician mutually acceptable to the Participant and the
Committee before attaining his or her 65th birthday and if such total disability continues for more than three months. Disability does not include any condition which is intentionally
self-inflicted or caused by illegal acts of the Participant. 

	c.
	Deferral of Award.    A Participant may, in writing filed with the Committee within 30 days following the receipt of
his or her Participant Letter (but in no event later than December 15, of the applicable Plan Year), elect to defer payment of all or a portion of his or her annual cash award so that it shall
be paid in not more than ten equal annual installments commencing the January 15th, or such other date selected by the Participant and approved by the Committee, following his or her
(i) retirement or termination of employment with the Company or (ii) attainment of the age specified by the Participant. Any election to defer until the attainment of a specified age
shall have a payment commencement date no sooner than three years from the date of the applicable Participant Letter. Such election to defer shall designate the number of annual installments and the
timing of such installments and shall, except as provided below, be irrevocable. If such election fails to specify a time for payment, such payment shall be paid in a lump sum on the
January 15th following the Participant's retirement or termination of employment with the Company. The deferral of any annual award shall not be less than $10,000, which amount may be changed
by the Committee from time to time in its sole discretion. 

The
Participant may request to receive an early distribution of all or a portion of any amounts deferred hereunder. A single-sum payment will be paid to Participants who request such
distribution. An early distribution paid to a Participant shall cause the Participant to forfeit all right, title or claim to an amount equal to 10% of such early distribution. Such 10% penalty shall
first reduce the remaining balance of the amounts deferred hereunder immediately following the early distribution and then shall reduce the early distribution payable to the Participant. 

Notwithstanding
the preceding paragraph, any request for an early distribution on account of an "unforeseeable emergency" shall not bear the 10% early distribution penalty. For purposes of this
Section 11(c), an unforeseeable emergency is a severe financial hardship to the Participant resulting
from a sudden and unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or of a dependent (as defined in Section 152(a) of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Participant, loss of the Participant's
property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of the Participant. The determination of whether a request for an early distribution is on
account of an unforeseeable emergency shall be made by the sole discretion of the Committee, who shall apply the standards of Section 457 of the Internal Revenue Code. 

Any
early distribution on account of an unforeseeable emergency may not be made to the extent such hardship is or may be relieved by (i) reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise,
(ii) liquidation of the Participant's assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship, (iii) obtaining a loan either within the
provisions of any benefit plan of the Company or its subsidiaries or from a third party lender or (iv) cessation 

4

 

of
deferrals under the MIP. Early distributions because of an unforeseeable emergency will only be permitted to the extent reasonably needed to satisfy the emergency need in addition to any amounts
necessary to pay any federal, state or local income taxes reasonably anticipated to result from the early distribution. 

	d.
	Interest Payable on Deferred Payments.    Any annual award to which a Participant shall have elected deferred payment
hereunder shall bear interest, compounded annually, at the prime rate of interest as such rate is set, from time to time, by Bank One, NA or its successor, but in no event shall such rate exceed 10%.
A separate accounting shall be maintained for each Participant with respect to the deferred payments hereunder.

	e.
	Investment in Alberto-Culver Company Stock.    As an additional alternative to lump sum cash payment, a Participant may elect,
within 30 days following the receipt of his or her Participant Letter (but in no event later than December 15, of the applicable Plan Year), to receive all or a portion of his or her
annual award, less withholding taxes, in Alberto-Culver Company Common Stock, but this shall not constitute a deferred payment for purposes of this MIP. Awards payable, in whole or in part, in Common
Stock shall be the number of shares of Common Stock that a Participant could have purchased based upon the closing price of such shares on the last trading day of the applicable fiscal year.  

	12.
	Beneficiary.    If a Participant dies before receiving the annual award and/or any previously deferred awards to which he or
she is entitled to under the MIP, such awards shall be paid to such person whom the Participant has designated by an instrument in writing, and in a form acceptable to the Board of Directors, executed
by the Participant and delivered to the Board of Directors in care of the Secretary of the Company during the Participant's lifetime. Such designation may be revoked or modified by the Participant
from time to time by an instrument in writing in a form acceptable to the Board of Directors, executed by the Participant and delivered to the Board of Directors in care of the Secretary of the
Company during the Participant's lifetime. If no such designation is delivered to the Board of Directors, or if no such designated beneficiary is then living, the annual award shall be paid to the
surviving spouse of the Participant, or in the event there is no such surviving spouse, to the estate of the Participant.

	13.
	Withholding Payroll Taxes.    To the extent required by the laws in effect at the time payments are made or earned, the
Company shall withhold from the annual cash, stock or deferred award made hereunder an amount necessary to satisfy any taxes required to be withheld for federal, state, or local governmental purposes. 

14.   Change in Control.  

	a.
	Application.    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the provisions of this Section 14 shall apply on and
after the date that a Change in Control (as defined in Section 14.d.1.) occurs. Any award payable to a Participant pursuant to this Section 14 for a Plan Year shall be in lieu of any
award otherwise payable under the Plan.

	b.
	Determination of Awards.    Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each Participant shall be eligible to receive an award
(a "Change in Control Award") equal to an amount calculated by multiplying (i) the bonus award percentage obtained by taking (a) the financial performance of the Company or Profit
Center, as the case may be, from the start of the applicable fiscal year to the date of the Change in Control (or, in the case of the date of the Change in Control not being as of a month end, to the
end of the month immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control) and comparing it to the performance during the same period in the preceding fiscal year and assuming such financial
performance (increases or decreases in sales and pre-tax earnings or other relevant measurements) has been achieved for the full fiscal year plus (b) the achievement of 100% of the
Participant's Individual Business Objectives, if any, for such Plan Year by (ii) the Base Salary of the Participant up to and including the date of the Change in Control. The amount of any such
Change in Control Award shall not be subject to revision or adjustment. 

5

 

	c.
	Payment of Awards.

	1.
	Payment.    Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, each Participant (or Beneficiary thereof) shall be paid the
Change in Control Award, determined pursuant to Section 14.b., no later than 30 days after the date of the occurrence of the Change in Control (the "Payment Date"), in the form of a
single lump sum cash payment. Such award shall not be subject to forfeiture for any reason.

	2.
	Interest on Late Payment.    If any amount to be paid to a Participant (or Beneficiary thereof) pursuant to
Section 14.c.1. is not paid in full by the Payment Date, then the Company shall also pay to that Participant (or Beneficiary) interest on the unpaid amount for the period beginning on the
Payment Date and ending on the date that the amount is paid in full. The amount of interest to be paid to a Participant (or Beneficiary thereof) pursuant to this Section 14.c.2. shall be
computed using an annual rate equal to two percent above the prime rate from time to time in effect, as published under "Money Rates" in The Wall Street
Journal, but in no event higher than the maximum legal rate permissible under applicable law. Payments received by a Participant (or Beneficiary thereof) under the Plan shall
be credited first against accrued interest until all accrued interest is paid in full before any such payment is credited against the amount payable pursuant to Section 14.c.1.

	d.
	Definitions.

term "Change in Control" means:
