Internet Capital Group

2006 Bonus Plan

 

The Board of Directors of Internet Capital Group, Inc. (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the "Company") hereby establishes this 2006 Bonus Plan (this "Plan").  The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company's stockholders by providing certain employees with bonus payments upon achievement of Company-specific 2006 goals and individual goals, as well as to help the Company attract and retain key employees.  The Company's executive officers and other regular, full-time employees are eligible to participate in the Plan.  

The Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Committee") shall administer and interpret the Plan.   All decisions and determinations of the Committee with respect to the Plan shall be final and binding on all parties.  

The Company's 2006 goals include quantitative and qualitative goals.  The relative weighting of each element of the Company-specific goals is described below.  

Eighty percent of the bonus potential related to Company goals is tied to accomplishment of quantitative goals.  Realization of a specified increase in the aggregate value of the Company's Core partner companies accounts for 50% of the potential bonus award.  Achievement of a specified increase in the aggregate value of the Company's other assets accounts for a total of 10% of the potential bonus award.  Twenty percent of the potential bonus award relates to the effective deployment of capital.  

Twenty percent of the bonus is tied to execution against the following qualitative goals: (1) improvement in communicating the value of the Company's underlying assets, (2) building the ICG brand, (3) performance and effectiveness of partner company executives, (4) reaction to unforeseen market/business conditions and (5) overall execution of strategic initiatives.  

Following the end of the Company's fiscal year, the Committee will evaluate the Company's 2006 performance and determine the extent to which the Company's 2006 goals and individual goals were achieved.  Based upon this assessment, the Committee will award bonuses in accordance with the terms of this Plan.UNITED STATES

6.RESALE RESTRICTIONS AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS

6.1The Subscriber understands and acknowledges that the Shares will be subject to certain resale restrictions under the Act or other applicable securities rules and regulations, which may be legended on the certificates representing the Shares, and the Subscriber agrees to comply with such resale restrictions. The Subscriber also acknowledges that it has been advised to consult its own independent legal advisor with respect to the applicable resale restrictions and the Subscriber is solely responsible for complying with such restrictions and the Issuer is not in any manner responsible for ensuring compliance by the Subscriber with the applicable resale restrictions.

6.2The Issuer is obligated to make any and all best efforts to file with the SEC, not later than 90 days after Closing, a registration statement registering for resale under the Securities Act of 1933 all of the Shares issued hereunder. In the event that the Issuer files with the SEC a registration statement registering shares other than the Shares, and does so before the expiry of the 90 day period after Closing, the Subscriber shall have the right, commonly known as a "piggy-back registration right", to have the Subscriber's Shares included in any such registration statement

6.3 In the event that the Issuer does not file with the SEC, on or before that date which is 90 days from Closing, a registration statement as described in section 6.2 above, then the Subscriber shall be entitled to receive an additional number of Shares equal to 10% of the number of Shares subscribed for and the Issuer shall issue the additional Shares to the Subscriber within 15 days of the expiry of the 90 day period. For greater clarity, if a Subscriber subscribes for 2,500,000 shares, and the registration statement is not filed with the SEC within the 90 day period, that Subscriber would receive an additional 250,000 Shares.
