Plan.

     (c) Consultants. All Consultants are eligible for the grant of Consultant Awards under this
Plan.

     5. Common Stock Available for Awards. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 17 hereof, no
Award shall be granted if it shall result in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued

Common Stock or in a manner such that all or some of the shares covered by an Award are not issued
to a Participant or are exchanged for Awards that do not involve Common Stock, shall again
immediately become available for Awards hereunder. If the Grant Price or other purchase price of
any Option or other Award granted under the Plan or the Prior Plans is satisfied by tendering
shares of Common Stock to the Company, or if the tax withholding obligation resulting from the
settlement of any such Option or other Award is satisfied by tendering or withholding shares of
Common Stock, only the number of shares of Common Stock issued net of the shares of Common Stock
tendered or withheld shall be deemed delivered for purposes of determining usage of shares against
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for delivery under the Plan or any sublimit
set forth above. Shares of Common Stock delivered under the Plan as an Award or in settlement of an
Award issued or made (a) upon the assumption, substitution, conversion or replacement of
outstanding awards under a plan or arrangement of an entity acquired in a merger or other
acquisition or (b) as a post-transaction grant under such a plan or arrangement of an acquired
entity shall not reduce or be counted against the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
available for delivery under the Plan, to the extent that the exemption for transactions in
connection with mergers and acquisitions from the shareholder approval requirements of the New York
Stock Exchange (or any other applicable exchange or market) for equity compensation plans applies.
The Committee may from time to time adopt and observe such rules and procedures concerning the
counting of shares against the Plan maximum 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 on which the Common Stock is listed or any applicable
regulatory requirement. The Board and the appropriate officers of the Company are authorized to
take from time to time whatever actions are necessary, and to file any required documents with
governmental authorities, stock exchanges and transaction reporting systems to ensure that shares
of Common Stock are available for issuance pursuant to Awards.

6. Administration.

     (a) This Plan shall be administered by the Committee, except as otherwise provided herein.

     (b) Subject to the provisions hereof, the Committee shall have full and exclusive power and
authority to administer this Plan and to take all actions that are specifically contemplated hereby
or are necessary or appropriate in connection with the administration hereof. The Committee shall
also have full and exclusive power to interpret this Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations and
guidelines for carrying out this Plan as it may deem necessary or proper. The Committee may, in its
discretion, provide for the extension of the exercisability of an Employee Award or Consultant
Award, accelerate the vesting or exercisability of an Employee Award or Consultant Award, eliminate
or make less restrictive any restrictions applicable to an Employee Award or Consultant Award,
waive any restriction or other provision of this Plan (insofar as such provision relates to
Employee Awards or to Consultant Awards) or an Employee Award or Consultant Award or otherwise
amend or modify an Employee Award or Consultant Award in any manner that is either (i) not adverse
to the Participant to whom such Employee Award or Consultant Award was granted or (ii) consented to
by such

4

 

Participant; provided, however, that the Committee shall not be considered to have any
discretion to amend or modify an Employee Award or Consultant Award in any manner than would cause
either the Company to be subject to the deduction limitation of section 162(m) of the Code or the Award or the Participant who holds the Award to be subject to the
provisions of section 409A of the Code with respect to such Award. Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, Options issued under the Plan will not be repriced, replaced, or regranted through
cancellation or by decreasing the exercise price of a previously granted Option, except as
expressly provided by the adjustment provisions of Paragraph 17. 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.
Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and administration of this Plan shall lie
within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties
concerned.

     (c) No member of the Committee or officer of the Company to whom the Committee has delegated
authority in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 7 of this Plan shall be liable for
anything done or omitted to be done by him or her, by any member of the Committee or by any officer
of the Company in connection with the performance of any duties under this Plan, except for his or
her own willful misconduct or as expressly provided by statute.

     (d) The Board shall have the same powers, duties, and authority to administer the Plan with
respect to Director Awards as the Committee retains with respect to Employee Awards and Consultant
Awards.

     7. Delegation of Authority. Following the authorization of a pool of cash or shares of Common
Stock to be available for Awards, the Board or the Committee may authorize a committee of one or
more members of the Board to grant individual Employee Awards from such pool pursuant to such
conditions or limitations as the Board or the Committee may establish. The Committee may delegate
to the Chief Executive Officer and to other employees of the Company its administrative duties
under this Plan (excluding its granting authority) pursuant to such conditions or limitations as
the Committee may establish. The Committee may engage or authorize the engagement of a third party
administrator to carry out administrative functions under the Plan.

8. Employee Awards and Consultant Awards.

     (a) The Committee (or other committee to whom such authority is delegated under Paragraph 7)
shall determine the type or types of Employee Awards to be made under this Plan and shall designate
from time to time the Employees who are to be the recipients of such Awards. Each Employee Award
may, in the discretion of the Committee, be embodied in an Employee Award Agreement, which shall
contain such terms, conditions, and limitations as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion and, if required by the Committee, shall be signed by the Participant to whom the
Employee Award is granted and signed for and on behalf of the Company. Employee Awards may consist
of those listed in this Paragraph 8(a) and may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem.
Employee Awards may also be granted in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of (subject to
the last sentence of Paragraph 15), or as alternatives to, grants or rights under this Plan or any
other employee plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including the plan of any acquired
entity. An Employee Award may provide for the grant or issuance of additional, replacement or
alternative Employee Awards upon the occurrence of specified events, including the exercise of the
original Employee Award granted to a Participant. All or part of an Employee Award may be subject
to conditions established by the Committee, which may include, but are not limited to, continuous
service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, achievement of specific business objectives, items
referenced in clause (v) below, and other comparable measurements of performance. Upon the
termination of employment by a Participant who is an Employee, any unexercised, deferred, unvested,
or unpaid Employee Awards shall be treated as set forth in the applicable Employee Award Agreement
or as otherwise specified by the Committee.

     (i) Options. An Employee Award may be in the form of an Option, which may be an Incentive
Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option. The Grant Price of an Option shall be not less than
the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to such Option on the Grant Date. The term of
the Option shall extend no more than 10 years after the Grant Date. Options may not include
provisions that “reload” the Option upon exercise. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the
terms, conditions, and limitations applicable to any Options awarded to Employees pursuant to
this Plan, including the Grant Price, the term of the Options, the number of share subject to
the Option and the date or dates upon which they become exercisable, shall be determined by the
Committee.

     (ii) Stock Appreciation Rights. An Employee Award may be in the form of an SAR. On the
Grant Date, the Grant Price of an SAR shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock subject to such SAR. The holder of a tandem SAR may

5

 

elect to exercise either the option or
the SAR, but not both. The exercise period for an SAR shall extend no more than 10 years after
the Grant Date. SARs may not include provisions that “reload” the SAR upon exercise. Subject to
the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions, and limitations applicable to any SARs awarded to Employees pursuant
to this Plan, including the Grant Price, the term of any SARs, and the date or dates upon which
they become exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee.

     (iii) Stock Awards. An Employee Award may be in the form of a Stock Award. The terms,
conditions and limitations applicable to any Stock Awards granted pursuant to this Plan shall be
determined by the Committee. Stock Awards that are not Performance Awards may constitute grants
of Restricted Stock, with a Restriction Period determined by the Committee, Stock Units,
Restricted Stock Units or outright grants of shares of Common Stock.

     (iv) Cash Awards. An Employee Award may be in the form of a Cash Award. The terms,
conditions, and limitations applicable to any Cash Awards granted pursuant to this Plan shall be
determined by the Committee.

     (v) Performance Awards. Without limiting the type or number of Employee Awards that may be
made under the other provisions of this Plan, an Employee Award may be in the form of a
Performance Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Performance Awards
granted to Participants pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee, subject to
the limitations set forth below. The Committee shall set Performance Goals in its discretion
which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the value and/or amount of
Performance Awards that will be paid out to the Participant and/or the portion of an Award that
may be exercised.

     (A) Nonqualified Performance Awards. Performance Awards granted to Employees that are
not intended to qualify as qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of
the Code, or that are Options or SARs, shall be based on achievement of Performance Goals
and be subject to such terms, conditions, and restrictions as the Committee or its delegate
shall determine.

     (B) Qualified Performance Awards. Performance Awards granted to Employees under the
Plan that are intended to qualify as qualified performance-based compensation under Section
162(m) of the Code 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 prior to the earlier to occur of (x) 90 days after the commencement of the period
of service to which the Performance Goal relates and (y) 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. A Performance Goal is objective if a third
party having knowledge of the relevant facts could determine whether the goal is met. Such
a Performance Goal may be based on one or more business criteria that apply to the
Employee, one or more business units, divisions or sectors of the Company, or the Company
as a whole, and if so desired by the Committee, by comparison with a peer group of
companies. A Performance Goal may include one or more of the following: Revenues; Operating
income or net income; Stock price measures (including total shareholder return); Market
share; Earnings per share; Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization
(“EBITDA”) and other earnings measures (including net, operating, pre-tax or after tax);
Economic value added (“EVA®”); Cash flow measures (including cash flow margin
and free cash flow); Return on investment, absolute or indexed (including return on assets,
return on net assets, return on average assets, return on invested capital, return on
capital employed, return on equity, return on average equity); Expense measures (including,
but not limited to, finding and development costs, overhead cost and general and
administrative expense); Total shareholder return; Economic profit; Costs; Results relative
to budget; Results relative to quantitative customer service or satisfaction standards; and
Corporate values measures (including ethics compliance, environmental, and safety).

     Unless otherwise stated, such 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 interpreting Plan provisions applicable to
Qualified Performance Awards, it is the intent of the Plan to conform with the standards of
Section 162(m) of the Code and Treasury Regulation §1.162-27(e)(2)(i), as to grants to
those Employees whose compensation is, or is likely to be, subject to Section 162(m) of the
Code, and the Committee in establishing such goals and interpreting the Plan shall be
guided by such provisions. Prior to the payment of any compensation based on the
achievement of Performance Goals for Qualified Performance Awards, the Committee must
certify in writing that applicable Performance Goals and any of the material

6

 

terms thereof
were, in fact, satisfied. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions, and
limitations applicable to any Qualified Performance Awards made pursuant to this Plan shall
be determined by the Committee.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan, the following limitations
shall apply to any Employee Awards made hereunder:

     (i) no Participant may be granted, during any calendar year, Employee Awards consisting of
Options or SARs (including Options or SARs that are granted as Performance Awards) that are
exercisable for more than 200,000 shares of Common Stock;

     (ii) no Participant may be granted, during any calendar year, Stock Awards (including Stock
Awards that are granted as Performance Awards) covering or relating to more than 200,000 shares
of Common Stock (the limitation set forth in this clause (ii), together with the limitation set
forth in clause (i) above, being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Stock Based Awards
Limitations”); and

     (iii) no Participant may be granted Employee Awards consisting of cash (including Cash
Awards that are granted as Performance Awards) in respect of any calendar year having a value
determined on the Grant Date in excess of $2,000,000.

     (c) Subject to Paragraph 8(d), the Committee shall have the sole responsibility and authority
to determine the type or types of Consultant Awards to be made under this Plan and the terms,
conditions, and limitations applicable to such Awards.

     (d) Stock Awards, other than those awards which are subject to specific grant limitations
under the Plan, shall be in lieu of, and have a Fair Market Value on the Grant Date equal to, other
compensation that the Company would otherwise have awarded to the Participant.

     9. Director Awards.

     (a) The Board may grant Director Awards to Nonemployee Directors of the Company from time to
time in accordance with this Paragraph 9. Director Awards may consist of those listed in this
Paragraph 9 and may be granted singly, in combination, or in tandem. Each Director Award may, in
the discretion of the Board, be embodied in a Director Award Agreement, which shall contain such
terms, conditions, and limitations as shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion and,
if required by the Board, shall be signed by the Participant to whom the Director Award is granted
and signed for and on behalf of the Company.

     (i) Options. A Director Award may be in the form of an Option; provided that Options
granted as Director Awards shall not be Incentive Stock Options. The Grant Price of an Option
shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to such Option on the
Grant Date. In no event shall the term of the Option extend more than ten (10) years after the
Grant Date. Options may not include provisions that “reload” the option upon exercise. Subject
to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions, and limitations applicable to any Options
awarded to Participants pursuant to this Paragraph 9, including the Grant Price, the term of the
Options, the number of shares subject to the Option and the date or dates upon which they become
exercisable, shall be determined by the Board.

     (ii) Stock Awards. A Director Award may be in the form of a Stock Award. Any terms,
conditions, and limitations applicable to any Stock Awards granted to a Nonemployee Director
pursuant to this Plan, including but not limited to rights to Dividend Equivalents, shall be
determined by the Board.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan the following limitations
shall apply to any Director Awards made hereunder:

     (i) no Participant may be granted, during any fiscal year, Director Awards consisting of
Options that are exercisable for more than 20,000 shares of Common Stock and

     (ii) no Participant may be granted, during any fiscal year, Director Awards consisting of
Stock Awards covering or relating to more than 20,000 shares of Common Stock.

7

 

     (c) At the discretion of the Board, Director Awards may be settled by a cash payment in an
amount that the Board shall determine in its sole discretion is equal to the fair market value of
such Director Awards.

     10. Change of Control. Except as provided in Paragraph 17(b), notwithstanding any other
provisions of the Plan, including Paragraphs 8 and 9 hereof, unless otherwise expressly provided in
the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Change of Control during a Participant’s
employment (or service as a Nonemployee Director or Consultant) with the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries, (i) each Award granted under this Plan to the Participant shall become immediately
vested and fully exercisable and any restrictions applicable to the Award shall lapse (regardless
of the otherwise applicable vesting or exercise schedules or performance goals provided for under
the Award Agreement) and (ii) if the Award is an Option or SAR, shall remain exercisable until the
expiration of the term of the Award or, if the Participant should die before the expiration of the
term of the Award, until the earlier of (a) the expiration of the term of the Award or (b) two (2)
years following the date of the Participant’s death.

     11. Non-United States Participants. The Committee may grant awards to persons outside the
United States under such terms and conditions as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be
necessary or advisable to comply with the laws of the applicable foreign jurisdictions and, to that
end, may establish sub-plans, modified option exercise procedures and other terms and procedures.
Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be
granted, that would violate the Exchange Act, the Code, any securities law, any governing statute,
or any other applicable law.

     12. Payment of Awards.

     (a) General. Payment made to a Participant pursuant to an Award may be made in the form of
cash or Common Stock, or a combination thereof.

     (b) Dividends, Earnings and Interest. Rights to dividends or Dividend Equivalents may be
extended to and made part of any Stock Award, subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as
the Committee may establish, including such terms, conditions and restrictions as may be necessary
to ensure that the Stock Awards do not provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning
of section 409A of the Code.

     (c) Cash-out of Awards. At the discretion of the Committee, an Award that is an Option or SAR
may be settled by a cash payment equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the date of exercise and the Grant Price of the Award, multiplied by the number of
shares with respect to which the Award is exercised.

     13. Option Exercise. The Grant Price shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash
or, if permitted by the Committee and elected by the optionee, the optionee may purchase such
shares by means of tendering Common Stock or surrendering another Award, including Restricted
Stock, valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, or any combination thereof. The
Committee shall determine acceptable methods for Participants who are Employees or Consultants to
tender Common Stock or other Employee Awards or Consultant Awards; provided that any Common Stock
that is or was the subject of an Employee Award or Consultant Award may be so tendered only if it
has been held by the Participant for six months unless otherwise determined by the Committee. The
Committee may provide for procedures to permit the exercise or purchase of such Awards by use of
the proceeds to be received from the sale of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Award. Unless
otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event shares of Restricted Stock are
tendered as consideration for the exercise of an Option, a number of the shares issued upon the
exercise of the Option, equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock used as consideration
therefor, shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock so submitted as well as
any additional restrictions that may be imposed by the Committee. The Committee may adopt
additional rules and procedures regarding the exercise of Options from time to time, provided that
such rules and procedures are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Paragraph 13.

     An optionee desiring to pay the Grant Price of an Option by tendering Common Stock using the
method of attestation may, subject to any such conditions and in compliance with any such
procedures as the Committee may adopt, do so by attesting to the ownership of Common Stock of the
requisite value in which case the Company shall issue or otherwise deliver to the optionee upon
such exercise a number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option equal to the result obtained
by dividing (a) the excess of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject
to the Option for which the Option (or portion thereof) is being exercised over the Grant Price
payable in respect of such exercise by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock subject
to the Option, and the optionee may retain the shares of Common Stock the ownership of which is
attested.

8

 

     14. Taxes. The Company or its designated third party administrator shall have the right to
deduct applicable taxes from any Employee Award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or
vesting of cash or shares of Common Stock under this Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or number
of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of taxes or other amounts
required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company
to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. The Committee may also permit withholding
to be satisfied by the transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the
holder of the Employee Award with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common
Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Fair Market
Value when the tax withholding is required to be made. The Committee may provide for loans, to the
extent not otherwise prohibited by law, on either a short term or demand basis, from the Company to
a Participant who is an Employee or Consultant to permit the payment of taxes required by law.

     15. Amendment, Modification, Suspension, or Termination of the Plan. The Board may amend,
modify, suspend, or terminate this Plan for the purpose of meeting or addressing any changes in
legal requirements or for any other purpose permitted by law, except that (i) no amendment or
alteration that would adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any Award previously
granted to such Participant shall be made without the consent of such Participant and (ii) no
amendment or alteration shall be effective prior to its approval by the stockholders of the Company
to the extent such approval is required by applicable legal requirements or the applicable
requirements of the securities exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock is listed.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Options issued under the Plan will not be
repriced, replaced, or regranted through cancellation or by decreasing the exercise price of a
previously granted Option except as expressly provided by the adjustment provisions of Paragraph
17.

     16. Assignability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the Award
Agreement or the terms of the Award, no Award or any other benefit under this Plan shall be
assignable or otherwise transferable except by will, by beneficiary designation, or by the laws of
descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code
or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the rules
thereunder. In the event that a beneficiary designation conflicts with an assignment by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, the beneficiary designation will prevail. The Committee may
prescribe and include in applicable Award Agreements or the terms of the Award other restrictions
on transfer. Any attempted assignment of an Award or any other benefit under this Plan in violation
of this Paragraph 16 shall be null and void.

17. Adjustments.

     (a) The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any manner the right or power of
the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations,
reorganizations, or other changes in the capital stock of the Company or its business or any merger
or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference
stock (whether or not such issue is prior to, on a parity with or junior to the existing Common
Stock) or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part
of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding of any kind, whether or not of
a character similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above.

     (b) In the event of any subdivision or consolidation of outstanding shares of Common Stock,
declaration of a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or other stock split, then (i) the
number of shares of Common Stock reserved under this Plan and the number of shares of Common Stock
available for issuance pursuant to specific types of Awards as described in Paragraph 5, (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock covered by outstanding Awards, (iii) the Grant Price or other
price in respect of such Awards, (iv) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price
determinations for such Awards, and (v) the Stock Based Awards Limitations shall each be
proportionately adjusted by the Board as appropriate to reflect such transaction. In the event of
any other recapitalization or capital reorganization of the Company, any consolidation or merger of
the Company with another corporation or entity, the adoption by the Company of any plan of exchange
affecting Common Stock or any distribution to holders of Common Stock of securities or property
(including cash dividends that the Board determines are not in the ordinary course of business but
excluding normal cash dividends or dividends payable in Common Stock), the Board shall make
appropriate adjustments to (x) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under this Plan and
the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to specific types of Awards as
described in Paragraph 5 and (y)(i) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by Awards, (ii)
the Grant Price or other price in respect of such Awards, (iii) the appropriate Fair Market Value
and other price determinations for such Awards, and (iv) the Stock Based Awards Limitations to
reflect such transaction; provided that such adjustments shall only be such as are necessary to
maintain the proportionate interest of the holders of the Awards and preserve, without increasing,
the value of such Awards. In the event of a

9

 

corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of assets
or stock, separation, reorganization, or liquidation, the Board shall be authorized (x) to assume
under the Plan previously issued compensatory awards, or to substitute Awards for previously issued
compensatory awards as part of such adjustment; if such event constitutes a Change of Control, (y)
to cancel Awards that are Options or SARs and give the Participants who are the holders of such
Awards notice and opportunity to exercise for 15 days prior to such cancellation or (z) to cancel
any such Awards and to deliver to the Participants cash in an amount that the Board shall determine
in its sole discretion is equal to the fair market value of such Awards on the date of such event, which in the case
of Options or SARs shall be the excess of the Fair Market Value of Common Stock on such date over
the exercise or strike price of such Award.

     18. Restrictions. No Common Stock or other form of payment shall be issued with respect to
any Award unless the Company shall be satisfied based on the advice of its counsel that such
issuance will be in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Certificates
evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered under this Plan (to the extent that such shares are so
evidenced) may be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may
deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, any securities exchange or transaction reporting system upon which the Common Stock is
then listed or to which it is admitted for quotation and any applicable federal or state securities
law. The Committee may cause a legend or legends to be placed upon such certificates (if any) to
make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

     19. 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 or the terms of the Award, 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.

     20. Right to Employment. Nothing in the Plan or an Award Agreement shall interfere with or
limit in any way the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate any Participant’s
employment or other service relationship at any time, or confer upon any Participant any right to
continue in the capacity in which he or she is employed or otherwise serves the Company or its
Subsidiaries.

     21. 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.

     22. Governing Law. This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto,
to the extent not otherwise governed by mandatory provisions of the Code or the securities laws of
the United States, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware.

     23. Effectiveness and Term. The Plan will be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for
approval at the 2006 Annual Meeting of the stockholders and, if approved, shall be effective as of
the date of such approval. No Award shall be made under the Plan ten years or more after such
approval. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any and all outstanding awards granted
under the Prior Plans shall continue to be outstanding and shall be subject to the appropriate
terms of the Prior Plan under which such award was granted and as are in effect as of the date this
Plan is effective.

     24. Name Change. At the Company’s 2006 Annual Meeting of the stockholders, the Board of
Directors has proposed to change the name of the Company from ORBIMAGE Holdings Inc to GeoEye, Inc.
Subject to approval by the majority of the shareholders voting at the meeting or by proxy, ORBIMAGE
Holdings Inc.’s name will be changed to GeoEye, Inc. and Company will file an Amended Certificate
of Incorporation with the State of Delaware to reflect the same. Upon the acceptance of the filing
by the State of Delaware, the name of the Company’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan will automatically
change from the “2006 Stock Omnibus Stock and Performance Incentive Plan of ORBIMAGE Holdings Inc.”
to the “2006 Omnibus Stock and Performance Incentive Plan of GeoEye, Inc.”

     “Associate” shall mean, with reference to any Person, (a) any corporation, firm, partnership,
association, unincorporated organization or other entity (other than the Company or a subsidiary of

     “Beneficial Owner” shall mean, with reference to any securities, any Person if:

Regulations under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the effective date of the foregoing Plan)
such securities or otherwise has the right to vote or dispose of such securities, including
pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether or not in writing); provided,
however, that a Person shall not be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of, or to “beneficially own,”
any security under this subsection (a) as a result of an agreement, arrangement or understanding
to vote such security if such agreement, arrangement or understanding: (i) arises solely from a
revocable proxy or consent given in response to a public (i.e., not including a solicitation
exempted by Rule 14a-2(b)(2) of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act) proxy
or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable provisions of

disposing of such securities or (ii) is a member of a group (as that term is used in Rule
13d-5(b) of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act) that includes any other

underwriter of securities to be the Beneficial Owner of, or to “beneficially own,” any securities
acquired through such Person’s participation in good faith in a firm commitment underwriting until
the expiration of 40 days after the date of such acquisition. For purposes hereof, “voting” a
security shall include voting, granting a proxy, consenting or making a request or demand relating
