STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

	Purpose of the Plan

The purpose of the Plan is to aid the Company and its Affiliates in recruiting and retaining
key employees, directors or consultants of outstanding ability and to motivate such employees,
directors or consultants to exert their best efforts on behalf of the Company and its Affiliates by
providing incentives through the granting of Awards.  The Company expects that it will benefit from
the added interest which such key employees, directors or consultants will have in the welfare of
the Company as a result of their proprietary interest in the Company's success.

number of Shares for which Options may be granted during a calendar year to any Participant is
800,000.  The Shares may consist, in whole or in part, of unissued Shares or treasury Shares.  If,
after the effective date of the Plan, any Award is forfeited or otherwise terminates or is canceled
without the delivery of Shares, Shares are surrendered or withheld from any Award to satisfy a
Participant's income tax or other withholding obligations, or Shares owned by a Participant are
tendered to pay the exercise price of any Award granted under the Plan, then the Shares covered by
such forfeited, terminated or canceled Award or which are equal to the number of Shares surrendered,
withheld or tendered shall again become available for transfer pursuant to Awards granted or to be
granted under this Plan.

	Administration

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which may delegate its duties and powers in
whole or in part to (i) any subcommittee thereof consisting solely of at least two individuals who
are intended to qualify as "non-employee directors" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3
under the Act (or any successor rule thereto) and "outside directors" within the meaning
of Section 162(m) of the Code (or any successor section thereto) or (ii) any officer(s) of the
Company.  Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be made under the Plan in assumption of,
or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Company or its affiliates or a
company acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines.  The number of Shares underlying
such substitute awards shall not be counted against the aggregate number of Shares available for
Awards under the Plan.  The Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan and any Award agreements,
to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any
other determinations that it deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan.  The
Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan
in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable.  The Committee may also
determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances (i) Awards may be settled or
exercised in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property, or canceled, forfeited
or suspended and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, canceled, forfeited or
suspended, and (ii) Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property and other amounts
payable with respect to an Award shall be deferred either automatically or at the election of the
holder thereof or of the Committee.  Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and
administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion
and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties concerned (including, but not limited to,
Participants and their beneficiaries or successors).  The Committee shall have the full power and
authority to establish the terms and conditions of any Award consistent with the provisions of the
Plan and to waive any such terms and conditions at any time (including, without limitation,
accelerating or waiving any vesting conditions).  The Committee shall require payment of any amount
it may determine to be necessary to withhold for federal, state, local or other taxes as a result of
the exercise of an Award.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Board may,
in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, grant Awards or administer the Plan.  In
such event, the Board shall have all of the authority and responsibility granted to the Committee
herein.

	Limitations

No Award may be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but
Awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date.

	Terms and Conditions of Options

Options granted under the Plan shall be, as determined by the Committee, non-qualified or
incentive stock options for federal income tax purposes, as evidenced by the related Award
agreements, and shall be subject to the foregoing and the following terms and conditions and to such
other terms and conditions, not inconsistent therewith, as the Committee shall determine:

	Option Price.  The Option Price per Share shall be determined by the Committee, but shall
not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date an Option is granted.

	Exercisability.  Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time and
upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee, but in no event shall an
Option be exercisable more than ten years after the date it is granted, provided that, in the case
of CNET Europe, S.A., a Subsidiary, Options shall be exercisable for a period of at least
twelve (12) years but no more than fifteen (15) years from the date of grant.

	Exercise of Options.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in an Award agreement,
an Option may be exercised for all, or from time to time any part, of the Shares for which it is
then exercisable.  For purposes of Section 6 of the Plan, the exercise date of an Option shall be
the later of the date a notice of exercise is received by the Company and, if applicable, the date
payment is received by the Company pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) in the following sentence.
The purchase price for the Shares as to which an Option is exercised shall be paid to the Company in
full at the time of exercise at the election of the Participant  (i) in cash or its equivalent
(e.g., by check), (ii) to the extent permitted by the Committee, in Shares having a Fair Market
Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased and satisfying such other
requirements as may be imposed by the Committee; provided, that such Shares have been held by
the Participant for no less than six months (or such other period as established from time to time
by the Committee), (iii) partly in cash and, to the extent permitted by the Committee,
partly in such Shares, (iv) through the delivery of irrevocable instruments to a broker to
deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate option price for the shares being
purchased or (v) through any other method specified by the Committee.  Shares
shall be delivered to the Participant promptly after the Participant has given written notice of
exercise of the Option, paid in full for such Shares and, if applicable, has satisfied any other
conditions imposed by the Committee pursuant to the Plan.

	ISOs.  If and when the shareholders of the Company approve this Plan, the Committee may
grant Options under the Plan that are intended to be ISOs.  Such ISOs shall comply with the
requirements of Section 422 of the Code (or any successor section thereto).  No ISO may be granted
to any Participant who at the time of such grant, owns more than ten percent of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, unless (i) the Option
Price for such ISO is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the ISO is
granted and (ii) the date on which such ISO terminates is a date not later than the day
preceding the fifth anniversary of the date on which the ISO is granted.  Any Participant who
disposes of Shares acquired upon the exercise of an ISO either (i) within two years after the
date of grant of such ISO or (ii) within one year after the transfer of such Shares to the
Participant, shall notify the Company of such disposition and of the amount realized upon such
disposition.

 

	Other Stock-Based Awards

The Committee, in its sole discretion, may grant Awards of Shares, Awards of restricted
Shares and Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on the
Fair Market Value of, Shares ("Other Stock-Based Awards").  Such Other Stock-Based Awards
shall be in such form, and dependent on such conditions, as the Committee shall determine,
including, without limitation, the right to receive one or more Shares (or the equivalent cash value
of such Shares) upon the completion of a specified period of service, the occurrence of an event
and/or the attainment of performance objectives.  Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted alone or
in addition to any other Awards granted under the Plan or may be granted in satisfaction of awards
granted pursuant to other plans of the Company.  Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the
Committee shall determine to whom and when Other Stock-Based Awards will be made, the number of
Shares to be awarded under (or otherwise related to) such Other Stock-Based Awards; whether such
Other Stock-Based Awards shall be settled in cash, Shares or a combination of cash and Shares; and
all other terms and conditions of such Awards (including, without limitation, the vesting provisions
thereof and provisions ensuring that all Shares so awarded and issued shall be fully paid and non-
assessable).  

	Adjustments Upon Certain Events

Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan to the contrary, the following provisions
shall apply to all Awards granted under the Plan:

	Generally.  In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares after the Effective Date
by reason of any Share dividend or split, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation,
spin-off, combination, combination or transaction or exchange of Shares or other corporate exchange,
or any distribution to shareholders of Shares other than regular cash dividends or any transaction
similar to the foregoing, the Committee in its sole discretion and without liability to any person
may make such substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems to be equitable, as to (i) the
number or kind of Shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan or
pursuant to outstanding Awards, (ii) the maximum number of Shares for which Options may be granted
during a calendar year to any Participant, (iii) the Option Price and/or (iv) any other
affected terms of such Awards.

	Change in Control.  Except as otherwise provided in an Award agreement, in the event of a
Change in Control, the Committee in its sole discretion and without liability to any person may take
such actions, if any, as it deems necessary or desirable with respect to any Award (including,
without limitation, (i) the acceleration of an Award, (ii) the payment of a cash amount in exchange
for the cancellation of an Award and/or (iii) the requiring of the issuance of substitute Awards
that will substantially preserve the value, rights and benefits of any affected Awards previously
granted hereunder) as of the date of the consummation of the Change in Control.

 

	No Right to Employment or Awards

The granting of an Award under the Plan shall impose no obligation on the Company or any
Subsidiary to continue the employment or service or consulting relationship of a Participant and
shall not lessen or affect the Company's or Subsidiary's right to terminate the employment or
service or consulting relationship of such Participant.  No Participant or other Person shall have
any claim to be granted any Award, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of
Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards.  The terms and conditions of Awards and the
Committee's determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with
respect to each Participant (whether or not such Participants are similarly situated).  No
Participant shall have any rights to dividends or other rights of a stockholder with respect to
Shares subject to an Award until the Shares have been delivered to the Participant.

	Successors and Assigns

The Plan shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Company and a Participant,
including without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or
trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or representative of the
Participant's creditors.

	Nontransferability of Awards

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, an Award shall not be transferable or
assignable by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  An
Award exercisable after the death of a Participant may be exercised by the legatees, personal
representatives or distributees of the Participant.  The Committee may (but is not required to)
permit a Participant to transfer any Option which is not an ISO to one or more of the Participant's
immediate family members or to trusts established entirely for the benefit of the Participant and/or
one or more of such Participant's immediate family members.  For purposes of the Plan, (i) the
term "immediate family" shall mean the Participant's spouse and issue (including adopted and
step children) and (ii) the phrase "immediate family members or to trusts established entirely
for the benefit of the Participant and/or one or more of such Participant's immediate family
members" shall be further limited, if necessary, so that neither the transfer of a nonqualified
stock option to such immediate family member or trust, nor the ability of a Participant to make such
a transfer shall have adverse consequences to the Company or the Participant by reason of Section
162(m) of the Code.

	Amendments or Termination

The Committee may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or
discontinuation shall be made which, without the consent of a Participant, would materially diminish
any of the rights of the Participant under any Award theretofore granted to such Participant under
the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as
it deems necessary to permit the granting of Awards meeting the requirements of the Code or other
applicable laws and, provided, further, that any action of the Committee that alters
or affects the tax treatment of any Award shall not be considered to materially diminish any of the
rights of a Participant.

	International Participants

With respect to Participants who reside or work outside the United States of America and who
are not (and who are not expected to be) "covered employees" within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend the terms of the
Plan or Awards with respect to such Participants in order to conform such terms with the
requirements of local law.

	Right of Recapture

To the extent provided in the Award agreement, if at any time within six months after the
date on which a Participant exercises an Option or stock appreciation right, or on which restricted
stock vests, or which is the maturity date of restricted stock units, or on which income is realized
by a Participant in connection with any Other Stock-Based Award (each of which events is a
"realization event"), the Participant engages in certain activity specified in such
Participant's Award agreement (which is determined in the discretion of the Committee to have
occurred), then any gain realized by the Participant from the realization event shall be paid by the
Participant to the Company upon notice from the Company.  Such gain shall be determined on a gross
basis, without reduction for any taxes incurred, as of the date of the realization event, without
regard to any subsequent change in the Fair Market Value of the Shares.  The Company shall have the
right to offset such gain against any amounts otherwise owed to the Participant by the Company
(whether as wages, vacation pay, or pursuant to any benefit plan or other compensatory
arrangement).

	Consent

If the Committee shall at any time determine that any consent (as hereinafter defined) is
necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of any Award, the
delivery of Shares or the delivery of any cash, securities or other property under the Plan, or the
taking of any other action thereunder (each such action being hereinafter referred to as a "plan
action"), then such plan action shall not be taken, in whole or in part, unless and until such
consent shall have been effected or obtained to the full satisfaction of the Committee.  The
Committee may direct that any certificate evidencing Shares delivered pursuant to the Plan shall
bear a legend setting forth such restrictions on transferability as the Committee may determine to
be necessary or desirable, and may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order against any
legended shares.

The term "consent" as used herein with respect to any plan action includes (a) any and all
listings, registrations or qualifications in respect thereof upon any securities exchange or under
any federal, state, or local law, or law, rule or regulation of a jurisdiction outside the United
States, (b) any and all written agreements and representations by the Participant with respect to
the disposition of Shares, or with respect to any other matter, which the Committee may deem
necessary or desirable to comply with the terms of any such listing, registration or qualification
or to obtain an exemption from the requirement that any such listing, qualification or registration
be made, (c) any and all other consents, clearances and approvals in respect of a plan action by any
governmental or other regulatory body or any stock exchange or self-regulatory agency and (d) any
and all consents or authorizations required to comply with, or required to be obtained under,
applicable local law or otherwise required by the Committee.  Nothing herein shall require the
Company to list, register or qualify the Shares on any securities exchange.

	Choice of Law

The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws.

	Effectiveness of the Plan

The Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date.
