5.
Shares Available under the Plan.
(a)
Subject to adjustment as provided in section 15(a), there is hereby reserved for issuance under the Plan, as of the date of stockholder approval of the amended and restated Plan, (i) any shares of Stock from the original 13,105,000 shares of Stock reserved under the Plan that have not been issued or that are returned to the Plan as described below and (ii) an additional 2,700,000 shares of Stock. Stock covered by an Award shall be counted as used only if and when actually issued and delivered to a Participant. Accordingly, if there is (A) a lapse, expiration, termination or cancellation of any such Stock Option or other Award prior to the issuance of Stock thereunder or (B) a forfeiture of any such shares of Restricted Stock or Stock prior to vesting, then the Stock subject to these Stock Options or other Awards shall be added to the Stock available for Awards under the Plan. In addition, any such Stock covered by an SAR (including an SAR settled in Stock which the Committee, in its discretion, may substitute for an outstanding Stock

6    


Option) and any Stock covered by a Stock Option shall be counted as used only to the extent Stock is actually issued upon exercise of the right. Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, shares of Stock withheld or tendered for payment of the exercise price of an Award (including through a net exercise arrangement described in section 7), shares of Stock withheld or tendered to satisfy withholding taxes, shares of Stock not issued on the stock settlement of SARs and shares of Stock purchased on the open market with cash proceeds from the exercise of Stock Options shall not be added back to the number of shares available for the future grant of Awards. All such Stock issued under the Plan may be either authorized and unissued Stock or issued Stock reacquired by the Company.
Additionally, in the event that a corporation acquired by (or combined with) the Company or any Subsidiary has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the shares of Stock authorized for grant under the Plan; provided that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employees or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary prior to such acquisition or combination.
(b)
All of the available Stock may, but need not, be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options; provided, however, notwithstanding a Stock Option’s designation, to the extent that Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year with respect to Stock whose aggregate Fair Market Value exceeds $100,000, such Stock Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options; provided further, that the value of any shares of Stock withheld or tendered to pay the exercise price of Incentive Stock Options or withheld or tendered to pay taxes on any Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account for purposes of determining the aggregate Fair Market Value of Stock associated with a Participant's Incentive Stock Options.
(c)
For Awards intended to be performance-based compensation under Section 162(m), no Participant may be granted Awards with respect to any twelve month Performance Period relating to more than 2 million shares of Stock. In any fiscal year of the Company, no Participant who is a non-employee director of the Company may be granted Awards valued at more than $1,000,000 at the time of grant.

7    


(d)
The Stock reserved for issuance and the other limitations set forth above shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with section 15 hereto.
6.
Types of Awards, Payments, and Limitations. Awards under the Plan shall consist of Stock Options, SARs, Restricted Stock, RSUs, DSUs, Performance Shares, Performance Cash Awards and other Stock or cash Awards, all as described below. Payment of Awards may be in the form of cash, Stock, other Awards or combinations thereof as the Committee shall determine, and with the expectation that any Award of Stock shall be styled to preserve such restrictions as it may impose. The Committee, either at the time of grant or by subsequent amendment, and subject to the provisions of sections 20 and 21 hereto, may require or permit Participants to elect to defer the issuance of Stock or the settlement of Awards in cash under such rules and procedures as the Committee may establish under the Plan.
The Committee may provide that any Awards under the Plan earn dividends or dividend equivalents and interest on such dividends or dividend equivalents; provided, however, that the Committee shall require that any dividends or dividend equivalents paid on Awards subject to Performance Criteria be held in escrow or accumulated until the applicable restrictions have lapsed, except as prohibited by Code Section 409A. Any crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents may be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee may establish, including reinvestment in additional Stock or Stock equivalents.
Awards shall be evidenced by an agreement (in written or electronic form) that sets forth the terms, conditions and limitations of such Award. Such terms may include, but are not limited to, the term of the Award, the provisions applicable in the event the Participant’s employment terminates and the Company’s authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend, cancel or rescind any Award including without limitation the ability to amend such Awards to comply with changes in applicable law. An Award may also be subject to other provisions (whether or not applicable to similar Awards granted to other Participants) as the Committee determines appropriate, including provisions intended to comply with federal or state securities laws and stock exchange requirements, understandings or conditions as to the Participant’s employment, requirements or inducements for continued ownership of Stock after exercise or vesting of Awards, or forfeiture of Awards in the event of termination of employment shortly after exercise or vesting, or breach of noncompetition or confidentiality agreements following termination of employment.
Any cash or equity-based incentive compensation paid to a Participant under the Plan shall be subject to policies established and amended from time to time by the Company regarding the recovery of erroneously-awarded compensation.
The Committee, in its sole discretion, may require a Participant to have amounts or Stock that otherwise would be paid or delivered to the Participant as a result of the exercise or settlement of an Award under the Plan credited to a deferred compensation or stock unit account established for the Participant by the Committee on the Company’s books of

8    


account. In addition, the Committee may permit Participants to defer the receipt of payments of Awards pursuant to such rules, procedures or programs as may be established for purposes of this Plan.
The Committee need not require the execution of any such agreement by a Participant. Acceptance of the Award by the respective Participant shall constitute agreement by the Participant to the terms of the Award.
7.
Stock Options. Stock Options may be granted to Participants at any time as determined by the Committee. The Committee shall determine the number of shares subject to each Stock Option and whether the Stock Option is an Incentive Stock Option. The exercise price for each Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the Stock Option is granted unless the Stock Option is a substitute or assumed Stock Option granted pursuant to section 16 hereto. Each Stock Option shall expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant; provided, however, that a Stock Option will be automatically exercised upon the expiration date of the Stock Option if the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the expiration date exceeds the exercise price for each Stock Option. Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine; provided, however, that no Stock Option shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of its grant, and provided, further that Awards of Stock Options granted on or after December 1, 2010 shall not become 100% exercisable in less than three years following the date they are granted with vesting no faster than on a pro rata basis over the vesting period, except that the foregoing limitations shall not apply to (i) substitute Awards for grants made under a plan of an acquired business entity; and (ii) special exercise provisions in limited cases of an intervening event related to death, disability or a Change in Control. The exercise price, upon exercise of any Stock Option, shall be payable to the Company in full by: (a) cash payment or its equivalent (a “cash exercise”); (b) tendering previously acquired Stock having a Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the exercise price (a “stock swap”) or certification of ownership of such previously-acquired Stock ("attestation"); (c) to the extent permitted by applicable law, delivery of a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale proceeds from the Stock Option shares or loan proceeds to pay the exercise price and to deliver to the Participant the net amount of shares (a “cashless exercise for Stock”) or cash (a "cashless exercise for cash"); (d) having the Company retain from the Stock otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Stock Option a number of shares of Stock having a value (determined pursuant to rules established by the Committee in its discretion) equal to the exercise price of the Stock Option (a “net exercise”); or (e) such other methods of payment as the Committee, in its discretion, deems appropriate.

In no event shall the Committee, without stockholder approval, cancel any outstanding Stock Option with an exercise price greater than the then current Fair Market Value of the Stock for the purpose of reissuing any other Award to the Participant at a lower exercise

9    


price, cancel any outstanding Stock Option with an exercise price greater than the then current Fair Market Value of the Stock for the purpose of cashing out a Stock Option unless such cash-out occurs in conjunction with a Change in Control, nor reduce the exercise price of an outstanding Stock Option. Reload options are not permitted.
8.
Stock Appreciation Rights. SARs may be granted to Participants at any time as determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee may, in its discretion, substitute SARs which can be settled only in Stock for outstanding Stock Options. The grant price of a substitute SAR shall be equal to the exercise price of the related Stock Option and the substitute SAR shall have substantive terms (e.g., duration) that are equivalent to the related Stock Option. The grant price of any other SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of its grant unless the SARs are substitute or assumed SARs granted pursuant to section 16 hereto. An SAR may be exercised upon such terms and conditions and for the term the Committee in its sole discretion determines; provided, however, that the term shall not exceed the Stock Option term in the case of a substitute SAR or ten years in the case of any other SAR, and the terms and conditions applicable to a substitute SAR shall be substantially the same as those applicable to the Stock Option which it replaces, and provided, further that Awards of SARs granted on or after December 1, 2010 shall not become 100% exercisable in less than three years following the date they are granted with vesting no faster than on a pro rata basis over the vesting period, except that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) substitute Awards for grants made under a plan of an acquired business entity; and (ii) special exercise provisions in limited cases of an intervening event related to death, disability or a Change in Control. Upon the expiration date of an SAR, the SAR will be automatically exercised if the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the expiration date exceeds the grant price of the SAR. Upon exercise of an SAR, the Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying (a) the difference between the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise and the grant price of the SAR by (b) the number of shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. The payment may be made in cash or Stock, at the discretion of the Committee, except in the case of a substitute SAR payment which may be made only in Stock. In no event shall the Committee, without stockholder approval, cancel any outstanding SAR with an exercise price greater than the then current Fair Market Value of the Stock for the purpose of reissuing any other Award to the Participant at a lower grant price, cancel any outstanding SAR with an exercise price greater than the then current Fair Market Value of the Stock for the purpose of cashing out a SAR unless such cash-out occurs in conjunction with a Change in Control, nor reduce the grant price of an outstanding SAR.
9.
Restricted Stock and RSUs. Restricted Stock and RSUs may be awarded or sold to Participants under such terms and conditions as shall be established by the Committee. Restricted Stock and RSUs shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee determines, including, without limitation, any of the following:

10    


(a)
a prohibition against sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other encumbrance for a specified period;
(b)
a requirement that the holder forfeit (or in the case of Stock or RSUs sold to the Participant, resell to the Company at cost) such Stock or RSUs in the event of termination of employment during the period of restriction; and
(c)
the attainment of Performance Criteria.
Restricted Stock and RSU Awards that are subject to the attainment of Performance Criteria granted on or after December 1, 2010 shall be subject to a performance period of at least one year, and restrictions on time-based Restricted Stock and RSU Awards granted on or after December 1, 2010 shall not expire relative to 100% of any Award in less than three years following the date the Award is granted (although restrictions may lapse no faster than on a pro rata basis over the vesting period), except that the foregoing limitations shall not apply to (i) substitute Awards for grants made under a plan of an acquired business entity; and (ii) special vesting provisions in limited cases of an intervening event related to death, disability, retirement or a Change in Control. All restrictions shall otherwise expire at such times as the Committee shall specify.
10.
DSUs. DSUs provide a Participant a vested right to receive Stock in lieu of other compensation at termination of employment or service or at a specific future designated date.
11.
Performance Shares. The Committee shall designate the Participants to whom Performance Shares are to be awarded and determine the number of shares, the length of the Performance Period and the other terms and conditions of each such Award. Each Award of Performance Shares shall entitle the Participant to a payment in the form of Stock (or cash) upon the attainment of Performance Criteria and other terms and conditions specified by the Committee.
Notwithstanding satisfaction of any Performance Criteria, the number of shares issued under a Performance Share Award may be adjusted by the Committee on the basis of such further consideration as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine. The Committee may, in its discretion, make a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of Stock otherwise required to be issued to a Participant pursuant to a Performance Share Award.
12.
Performance Cash Awards. The Committee shall designate the Participants to whom Performance Cash Awards are to be awarded and determine the amount of the Award and the terms and conditions of each such Award. Each Performance Cash Award shall entitle the Participant to a payment in cash upon the attainment of Performance Criteria and other terms and conditions specified by the Committee. For Awards intended to be performance-based compensation under Section 162(m), no Participant may be granted Performance Cash Awards with respect to any twelve month Performance Period in excess of $5,000,000; if a cash Award is earned in excess of $5,000,000, the amount of

11    


the Award in excess of this amount shall be deferred to the date the Participant ceases to be covered by Code Section 162(m) (or six months after that date if the Participant ceases to be covered by Code Section 162(m) because of Participant’s separation from service (as defined in Code Section 409A).
Notwithstanding the satisfaction of any Performance Criteria, the amount to be paid under a Performance Cash Award may be adjusted by the Committee on the basis of such further consideration as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine. The Committee may, in its discretion, substitute actual Stock for the cash payment otherwise required to be made to a Participant pursuant to a Performance Cash Award.
13.
Other Stock or Cash Awards. In addition to the incentives described in sections 6 through 12 above, the Committee may grant other incentives payable in cash or in Stock under the Plan as it deems appropriate and subject to such other terms and conditions as it deems appropriate; provided an outright grant of Stock will not be made unless it is offered in exchange for cash compensation that has otherwise already been earned by the recipient including without limitation awards earned under the Hanesbrands Inc. Performance-Based Annual Incentive Plan (or any successor annual incentive plan of the Company) or under the Hanesbrands Inc. Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan.
14.
Change in Control. The vesting and payment terms applicable to an Award following a Change in Control shall be determined by the Committee at the time the Award is granted.
15.
Adjustment Provisions.
(a)
In the event of any change affecting the number, class, market price or terms of the Stock by reason of share dividend, share split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, disaffiliation of a Subsidiary, combination of Stock, exchange of Stock, Stock rights offering or other similar event, or any distribution to the holders of Stock other than a regular cash dividend, the Committee shall equitably substitute or adjust the number or class of Stock which may be issued under the Plan in the aggregate or to any one Participant in any calendar year and the number, class, price or terms of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan.
(b)
In the event of any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company with or into another Company which results in the outstanding Stock of the Company being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof, there shall be substituted, on an equitable basis, for each share of Stock then subject to an Award granted under the Plan, the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Stock will be entitled pursuant to the transaction.

12    


16.
Substitution and Assumption of Awards. The Board or the Committee may authorize the issuance of Awards under this Plan in connection with the assumption of, or substitution for, outstanding Awards previously granted to individuals who become employees of the Company or any Subsidiary as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock or reorganization, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee may deem appropriate. Any substitute Awards granted under the Plan shall not count against the Stock limitations set forth in section 5 hereto, to the extent permitted by Section 303A.08 of the Corporate Governance Standards of the New York Stock Exchange.
17.
Nontransferability. Each Award granted under the Plan shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each Stock Option and SAR shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, in the event of disability, by the Participant’s personal representative. In the event of the death of a Participant, exercise of any Award or payment with respect to any Award shall be made only by or to the beneficiary, executor or administrator of the estate of the deceased Participant or the Person or Persons to whom the deceased Participant’s rights under the Award shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the approval of the Committee in its sole discretion, Stock Options may be transferable to members of the immediate family of the Participant and to one or more trusts for the benefit of such family members, partnerships in which such family members are the only partners, or corporations or other entities in which such family members are the only stockholders. Members of the immediate family means the Participant’s spouse, same-sex domestic partner (as that term is defined in the Hanesbrands Inc. Employee Health Benefit Plan), children, stepchildren, grandchildren, parents, grandparents, siblings (including half brothers and sisters) and individuals who are family members by adoption.
18.
Taxes. The Company shall be entitled to withhold the amount of any tax attributable to any amounts payable or Stock deliverable under the Plan, after giving notice to the Person entitled to receive such payment or delivery, and the Company may defer making payment or delivery as to any Award, if any such tax is payable, until indemnified to its satisfaction. A Participant may pay all or a portion of any withholding limited to the minimum statutory amount arising in connection with the exercise of a Stock Option or SAR or the receipt or vesting of Stock hereunder by electing to have the Company withhold Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; and the Company will withhold for this purpose any fractional shares to be delivered.
19.
Duration of the Plan. No Award shall be made under the Plan more than ten years after the adoption of the amended and restated Plan by the Board; provided, however, that the terms and conditions applicable to any Stock Option granted on or before such date may thereafter be amended or modified by mutual agreement between the Company and the Participant, or such other Person as may then have an interest therein.
20.
Amendment and Termination. The Board or the Committee may amend the Plan from time to time or terminate the Plan at any time. However, unless expressly provided in an

Award or the Plan, no such action shall reduce the amount of any existing Award or change the terms and conditions thereof without the Participant’s consent; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its discretion, substitute SARs which can be settled only in Stock for outstanding Stock Options and may require an Award be deferred pursuant to section 6 hereto, without a Participant’s consent; and further provided that the Committee may amend or terminate an Award to comply with changes in law, including but not limited to tax law, without a Participant’s consent. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the provisions in each of section 7 and section 8 of the Plan (regarding the cancellation, reissuing at a relatively reduced price or cash-out of Stock Options and SARs, respectively) shall not be amended without stockholder approval. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent that Awards under the Plan are subject to the provisions of Code Section 409A, then the Plan as applied to those amounts shall be interpreted and administered so that it is consistent with such Code section. The Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations or stock exchange rules.
21.
Other Provisions.
(a)
In the event any Award under this Plan is granted to an employee who is employed or providing services outside the United States and who is not compensated from a payroll maintained in the United States, the Committee may, in its sole discretion: (i) modify the provisions of the Plan as they pertain to such individuals to comply with applicable law, regulation or accounting rules consistent with the purposes of the Plan; and (ii) cause the Company to enter into an internal accounting transaction with any local branch or affiliate consistent with internal accounting/audit protocols and pursuant to which such branch or affiliate will reimburse the Company for the cost of such equity incentives.
(b)
Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing the Participant’s employment with the Company; nor interfere in any way with the Participant’s right or the Company’s right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and any enforceable agreement between the employee and the Company.
(c)
No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine whether cash, other securities or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional shares of Stock, or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.
(d)
In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held to be illegal or invalid for any reason, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provisions had never been contained in the Plan.

(e)
Payments and other benefits received by a Participant under an Award made pursuant to the Plan generally shall not be deemed a part of a Participant’s compensation for purposes of determining the Participant’s benefits under any other employee benefit plans or arrangements provided by the Company or a Subsidiary, unless the Committee expressly provides otherwise in writing or unless expressly provided under such plan. The Committee shall administer, construe, interpret and exercise discretion under the Plan and each Award in a manner that is consistent and in compliance with a reasonable, good faith interpretation of all applicable laws and that avoids (to the extent practicable) the classification of any Award as “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, as determined by the Committee.
22.
Governing Law. The Plan and any actions taken in connection herewith shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of North Carolina without regard to any state’s conflict of laws principles. Any legal action related to this Plan shall be brought only in a federal or state court located in North Carolina.
23.
Stockholder Approval. This amendment and restatement of the Plan is effective as of January 29, 2013, subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company at the April 2013 stockholder meeting.
