Purpose This Senior Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Incentive Plan") is intended to provide an incentive for superior work and to motivate eligible executives of iRobot Corporation (the "Company") and its subsidiaries toward even higher achievement and business results, to tie their goals and interests to those of the Company and its stockholders and to enable the Company to attract and retain highly qualified executives. The Incentive Plan is for the benefit of Covered Executives (as defined below). 2. Covered Executives From time to time, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Compensation Committee") may select certain key executives (the "Covered Executives") to be eligible to receive bonuses hereunder. 3. Administration The Compensation Committee shall have the sole discretion and authority to administer and interpret the Incentive Plan. 4. Bonus Determinations (a) A Covered Executive may receive a bonus payment under the Incentive Plan based upon the attainment of performance targets that are established by the Compensation Committee and relate to financial and operational metrics with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries (the "Performance Goals"), including, but not limited to, the following: revenue, earnings per share, EBITDA and specific strategic milestones. (b) Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 4(b): (i) any bonuses paid to Covered Executives under the Incentive Plan shall be based upon objectively determinable bonus formulas that tie such bonuses to one or more performance targets relating to the Performance Goals, (ii) bonus formulas for Covered Executives shall be adopted in each performance period by the Compensation Committee and (iii) no bonuses shall be paid to Covered Executives unless and until the Compensation Committee makes a determination with respect to the attainment of the performance objectives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may adjust bonuses payable under the Incentive Plan based on achievement of individual performance goals or pay bonuses (including, without limitation, discretionary bonuses) to Covered Executives under the Incentive Plan based upon such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may in its discretion determine. iRobot Corporation Senior Executive Incentive Compensation Plan Page 1 of 2 (c) Each Covered Executive shall have a targeted bonus opportunity for each performance period.
