     (b) Authority of Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, and in addition to other express powers and authorizations conferred on the Committee by the Plan, the Committee shall have full power and authority to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant; (iii) determine the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to be covered by, or with respect to which payments, rights, or other matters are to be calculated in connection with, Awards; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, but not limited to, the grant date, the exercise price, grant price, or purchase price, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, and any provisions related to non-competition and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion determines; provided, however, that the Committee shall not have the authority to accelerate the vesting or waive the forfeiture of any Performance-Based Awards; (v) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances Awards may be settled or exercised in cash, Shares, other securities, or other property, or canceled, forfeited, or suspended and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited, or suspended, provided, however, that Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be settled only in cash and Shares; (vi) interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or Award made under, the Plan; (vii) recommend to the Board any amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination of the Plan, and subject to the stockholder approval requirement set forth in Section 14(a) hereof, to take any such action not required by applicable law to be taken by the Board; (viii) establish, amend, suspend, or waive such rules and

     (c) Action by the Committee. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum. The acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by all members of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Committee. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any Employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company or the Committee to assist in the administration of the Plan.

     (d) Committee Decisions Binding. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect to the Plan or any Award shall be within the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time and shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all Persons, including, but not limited to, the Company, any Subsidiary, any Participant, any holder or beneficiary of any Award, any stockholder and any Employee.

     SECTION 4. Award Limits.

     (a) Plan Shares. Subject to Section 4(b) and Section 13 hereof, the aggregate number of Shares which may be granted pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall only be the aggregate number of Shares which are available or may become available for grant under the Amended and Restated KB Home 1999 Incentive Plan as in effect immediately prior to the Amendment Date (the “Prior Plan”); provided, however, that such aggregate number of Shares available for grant under the Plan shall be reduced by 1.25 Shares for each Share granted pursuant to any Full Value Award and shall be reduced by 1.0 Share for each Share granted pursuant to any Option or Stock Appreciation Right Award.

     (b) Shares Available for Grant. To the extent that an Award terminates, expires, or lapses for any reason, or is settled in cash, any Shares subject to the Award shall again be available for the grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan. Any Shares tendered or withheld to satisfy the grant or exercise price or tax withholding obligation pursuant to any Award shall not be available for the grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law or securities exchange rules, Shares issued in assumption of, or in substitution for, any outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form of combination by the Company or any Subsidiary shall not be counted against Shares available for grant pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that any assumption or substitution pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall not cause a violation of the requirements of Section 409A. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4(b), no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.

     (c) Individual Stock-Based Awards. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13 hereof, no Participant may be granted stock-based Awards under the Plan in any fiscal year of

the Company that relate to more than 1,000,000 Shares. No provision of this Section 4(c) shall be construed as limiting the amount of any cash-based Award which may be granted to any Participant.

     (d) Sources of Shares Deliverable Under Awards. Any Shares delivered pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares or of Shares acquired by the Company on the open market or otherwise.

     (e) Cash Award Limits. (i) Any Participant who is the Chief Executive Officer at the time of payment of an Award or Awards under the Plan (other than a stock-based Award) shall be eligible to be paid in cash in any fiscal year of the Company an amount not in excess of $5,000,000 in respect of any such Award(s), and (ii) no Participant other than a Participant described in clause (i) of this Section 4(e) shall be eligible to be paid more than $3,000,000 in cash in any fiscal year of the Company in respect of any Award(s) under the Plan. No provision of this Section 4(e) shall be construed as limiting the number of stock-based Awards, or other cash-based compensation for employment, that a Participant may receive.

     SECTION 5. Eligibility and Participation.

     (a) Eligibility. Each Eligible Individual shall be eligible to be granted one or more Awards pursuant to the Plan.

     (b) Participation. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, select from among all Eligible Individuals, those to whom Awards shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award. No Eligible Individual shall have any right to be granted an Award pursuant to this Plan.

     SECTION 6. Performance-Based Bonuses.

     (a) Grant. At such times and in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate, the Committee may select Participants and, subject to Section 4(e) hereof, award to such Participants the opportunity to earn a cash bonus (a “Performance-Based Bonus”), which shall be contingent upon the attainment of Performance Goals or other specific performance goals that are established by the Committee and relate to one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee, and which shall comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A. Any such Performance-Based Bonus paid to a Covered Employee shall be a Performance-Based Award and be based upon objectively determinable bonus formulas established in accordance with Section 11(c) hereof.

     (b) Employment Agreement. Notwithstanding Section 6(a) above, the formula for determining a Performance-Based Bonus to any Participant may, if so determined by the Committee, be governed by the terms of an Employment Agreement applicable to such Participant; provided, however, that such formula is in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code.

     SECTION 7. Stock Options.

     (a) General. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the following terms and conditions, provided that no Option may be granted to a Participant unless the Company is an “eligible issuer of service recipient stock” within the meaning of Section 409A with respect to such Participant:

     (1) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that subject to Section 7(b)(3) hereof, the exercise price for any Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant.

     (2) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part; provided, however, that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years. The Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised; provided, however, that no Option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable after ten years from the date of grant.

     (3) Payment. The Committee shall determine the form in which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, including, without limitation: (i) cash, (ii) Shares held for such period of time as may be required by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting consequences and having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof, or (iii) other property acceptable to the Committee (including through the delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price; provided, however, that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale), and the methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless exercise of Awards by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option with a loan from the Company or a loan arranged by the Company in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act.

     (4) Evidence of Grant; Other Terms and Conditions. All Options shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Company and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall include such additional provisions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee shall determine the number of Shares subject to an Option and the exercise price of such Option on or before the date of grant of such Option, and shall not amend an Option to reduce the per Share exercise price (except as permitted by Section 13 hereof), extend the exercise period of an Option beyond the earlier of the latest date upon which the Option could have expired by its original terms under any circumstances or the tenth anniversary of the date of grant of such Option, or otherwise modify an Option or add any feature for the

deferral of compensation in any manner that would cause a violation of the requirements of Section 409A.

     (5) Prohibition on Reload Grants. The Committee shall not have the authority to grant or provide for the automatic grant of an Option to any Participant to replace Shares a Participant delivers in payment of the exercise price of any Option granted hereunder in accordance with Section 7(a)(3) hereof, or in the event that the withholding tax liability arising upon exercise of any Option by a Participant is satisfied through the withholding by the Company of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the Option.

     (b) Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Employees and the terms of any Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan, in addition to the requirements of Section 7(a) above, must comply with the provisions of this Section 7(b).

     (1) Expiration. Subject to Section 7(b)(3) below, an Incentive Stock Option shall expire and may not be exercised to any extent by any Participant (or permitted beneficiary or representative of such Participant) after the first to occur of the following events:

          (i) Ten years from the date it is granted, unless an earlier time is set in the Award Agreement;

          (ii) Ninety days after the termination of the Participant’s employment as an Employee for any reason other than Disability or death; and

          (iii) One year after the date of the termination of the Participant’s employment as an Employee on account of Disability or death. Upon the Participant’s Disability or death, any Incentive Stock Options exercisable at the Participant’s Disability or death may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or representatives, by the person or persons entitled to do so pursuant to the Participant’s last will and testament, or, if the Participant fails to make testamentary disposition of such Incentive Stock Option or dies intestate, by the person or persons entitled to receive the Incentive Stock Option pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

     (2) Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such other limitation as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any successor provision. To the extent that Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Stock Options.

     (3) Ten Percent Owners. An Incentive Stock Option may be granted to any Participant who, at the date of grant, owns Shares possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of Shares only if such Option is granted at a price that is not less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant and the Option is exercisable for no more than five years from the date of grant.

     (4) Notice of Disposition. The Participant shall give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within (i) two years from the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option or (ii) one year after the transfer of such Shares to the Participant.

     (5) Right to Exercise. Except as provided in Section 7(b)(1)(iii) above, during a Participant’s lifetime, an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised only by the Participant.

     (6) Failure to Meet Requirements. Any Option (or portion thereof) purported to be an Incentive Stock Option, which, for any reason, fails to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code shall be considered a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

     SECTION 8. Stock Appreciation Rights.

     (a) Grant. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Participants to whom Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted, provided that no Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to a Participant unless the Company is an “eligible issuer of service recipient stock” within the meaning of Section 409A with respect to such Participant; the number of Shares to be covered by each Stock Appreciation Right Award; the strike price per Share thereof, provided that such strike price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant; and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise thereof. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in tandem with another Award no later than the grant date of such Award, in addition to another Award, or freestanding and unrelated to another Award. A Stock Appreciation Right shall be subject to such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee shall impose and shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement.

     (b) Exercise and Payment. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which a Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised in whole or in part; provided, however, that the term of any Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years. The Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of a Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised; provided, however, that no Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan shall become exercisable after ten years from the date of grant. A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant (or other person entitled to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right pursuant to the Plan) to exercise all or a specified portion of the Stock Appreciation Right (to the extent then exercisable pursuant to its terms) and to receive from the Company an amount equal to the product of (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of Shares on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised over (B) the strike price and (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, subject to any limitations the Committee may impose and any applicable tax withholding. Payment of the amounts determined under this Section 8(b) shall be made in cash, in Shares (based on their Fair Market Value as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised) or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee in the Award Agreement.

     (c) Evidence of Grant; Other Terms and Conditions. All Stock Appreciation Rights shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Company and the Participant. The Award

Agreement shall include such additional provisions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be specified by the Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine, on or before the date of grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, the number of Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right and the strike price thereof, the term, methods of exercise, methods and form of settlement, and any other terms and conditions of any Stock Appreciation Right. Any such determination by the Committee may be changed by the Committee from time to time and may govern the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted or exercised prior to such determination as well as Stock Appreciation Rights granted or exercised thereafter; provided, however, that the Committee shall not amend a Stock Appreciation Right to reduce the per Share strike price (except as permitted by Section 13 hereof), extend the exercise period of a Stock Appreciation Right beyond the earlier of the latest date upon which the Stock Appreciation Right could have expired by its original terms under any circumstances or the tenth anniversary of the date of grant of such Stock Appreciation Right, or otherwise modify a Stock Appreciation Right or add any feature for the deferral of compensation in any manner that would cause a violation of the requirements of Section 409A. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Committee may impose such conditions or restrictions on the exercise of any Stock Appreciation Right as it shall deem appropriate.

     SECTION 9. Restricted Stock.

     (a) Grant. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Participants to whom Shares of Restricted Stock shall be granted, the number of Shares of Restricted Stock to be granted to each Participant, the duration of the period during which, and the conditions under which, the Restricted Stock may be forfeited to the Company, and the other terms and conditions of such Awards. Subject to Section 13(b) hereof, the period during which such Awards may be forfeited to the Company shall terminate in three equal annual installments from the date of grant of such Awards; provided, however, that the Committee may determine to have such period terminate after the first anniversary of the date of grant of any such Award if the Committee has established conditions for the earning of such Award that relate to performance of the Company or one or more divisions or units thereof. All awards of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement.

     (b) Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of employment during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock that is at that time subject to restrictions shall be forfeited.

     (c) Certificates for Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, certificates must bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, and the Company may, at its discretion, retain physical possession of the certificate until such time as all applicable restrictions lapse.

     (d) Dividends and Distributions. Dividends and other distributions paid on or in respect of any Shares of Restricted Stock may be paid directly to the Participant, or may be reinvested in

additional Shares of Restricted Stock, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

     SECTION 10. Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee shall have authority to grant to any Participant an “Other Stock-Based Award”, which shall consist of any right which is (i) not an Award described in Section 6 through Section 9 hereof and (ii) an Award of Shares or an Award denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Shares (including, without limitation, securities convertible into Shares), as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan; provided, however, that any such rights must comply with applicable law and, to the extent deemed desirable by the Committee, with applicable securities exchange listing requirements, and provided, further, that any Other Stock-Based Award shall comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Other Stock-Based Award. Other Stock-Based Awards shall include, but not be limited to, Performance Share Awards and Stock Unit Awards.

     (a) Performance Share Awards. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance Share Awards which shall be denominated in a number of Shares and which may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. In making such determinations, the Committee shall consider (among such other factors as it deems relevant in light of the specific type of Award) the contributions, responsibilities and other compensation of the particular Participant. In addition, the Committee will have the sole and complete authority to determine the duration of the period during which, and the conditions under which, any such Performance Share Award shall be subject to restrictions and may be forfeited to the Company; provided, however, that, subject to Sections 10(e) and 13(b) hereof, the period during which any Performance Share Award granted to a Participant will be restricted from transfer by the Participant and may be forfeited to the Company will terminate no earlier than the first anniversary of the date of grant, unless otherwise provided in an applicable Award Agreement.

     (b) Stock Unit Awards.

          (1) Grant of Stock Unit Awards. The Committee shall have authority to grant to Participants Stock Unit Awards, the value of which is based, in whole or in part, on the Fair Market Value of Shares. Each Stock Unit shall consist of a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equivalent to the Fair Market Value of one Share. Such Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, except as otherwise provided for by the Committee. Stock Units may be granted as additional compensation or in lieu of any other compensation, as specified by the Committee, provided that Stock Units shall not be granted in substitution for or payment of any Award or other compensation in a manner that causes a violation of the requirements of Section 409A. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, Stock Unit Awards shall be subject to such terms, restrictions, conditions, vesting requirements and payment rules as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.

          (2) Settlement of Stock Units. Settlement of Stock Units shall be made by issuance of

Shares, provided that the Committee may provide for Stock Units to be settled in cash (in the sole discretion of the Company). The amount of Shares, or other settlement medium, to be so distributed may be increased by an interest factor or by dividend equivalents, which may be valued as if reinvested in Shares. Until a Stock Unit is settled, the number of Shares represented by a Stock Unit shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 13 hereof.

     (c) Term. Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of any Award of Performance Shares, Stock Units or Other Stock-Based Awards shall be set by the Committee in its discretion.

     (d) Exercise or Purchase Price. The Committee may establish the exercise or purchase price, if any, of any Other Stock-Based Awards; provided, however, that such price shall not be less than the par value of a Share on the date of grant, unless otherwise permitted by applicable state law.

     (e) Settlement of Other Stock-Based Awards. Settlement of Other Stock-Based Awards (including Performance Share and Stock Unit Awards) shall occur within 60 days after the date on which such Other Stock-Based Awards shall vest. The Committee may provide for Other Stock-Based Awards to be settled at such other times as it determines appropriate, provided that in no event shall any Other Stock-Based Award be settled after the later of: (i) the 15^th day of the third month following the end of the Participant’s first taxable year in which the Other Stock-Based Award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or (ii) the 15^th day of the third month following the end of the Company’s first taxable year in which the Other Stock-Based Award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. The Committee in its sole and absolute discretion may provide that an Award of Performance Shares, Stock Units, or Other Stock-Based Awards may vest upon an involuntary “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, following a Change of Ownership of the Company, because of the Participant’s death or Disability, or otherwise; provided, however, that any such provision with respect to Performance Shares or Stock Units shall be subject to the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code that apply to Qualified Performance-Based Compensation, where applicable for Company deductibility purposes.

     (f) Form of Payment. Payments with respect to any Awards granted under this Section 10 shall be made in cash, in Shares or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee.

     (g) Award Agreement. All Awards under this Section 10 shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as determined by the Committee and shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement.

     SECTION 11. Performance-Based Awards

     (a) Purpose. The purpose of this Section 11 is to provide the Committee the ability to qualify Awards other than Options and that are granted pursuant to Sections 6, 8, 9 and 10 hereof as Performance-Based Awards. If the Committee, in its discretion, decides to grant a Performance-Based Award to a Covered Employee, the provisions of this Section 11 shall control over any contrary provision contained in Section 6, 8, 9 or 10 hereof; provided, however, that the Committee may in its discretion grant Awards to Covered Employees that are based on

Performance Criteria or Performance Goals but that do not satisfy the requirements of this Section 11.

     (b) Applicability. This Section 11 shall apply only to those Covered Employees selected by the Committee to receive Performance-Based Awards. The designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a Performance Period shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive payment of an Award for the period. Moreover, designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a particular Performance Period shall not require designation of such Covered Employee as a Participant in any subsequent Performance Period and designation of one Covered Employee as a Participant shall not require designation of any other Covered Employees as a Participant in such period or in any other period.

     (c) Procedures with Respect to Performance-Based Awards. To the extent necessary to comply with the Qualified Performance-Based Compensation requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, with respect to any Award granted under Section 6, 8, 9 or 10 hereof which may be granted to one or more Covered Employees, no later than ninety (90) days following the commencement of any fiscal year of the Company in question or any other designated fiscal period or period of service (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing, (1) designate one or more Covered Employees, (2) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (3) establish the Performance Goals, and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such Performance Period, and (4) specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts of such Awards, as applicable, to be earned by each Covered Employee for such Performance Period. Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved for such Performance Period. In determining the amount earned by a Covered Employee, the Committee shall have the right to reduce or eliminate (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period.

     (d) Payment of Performance-Based Awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Covered Employee must be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary on the day a Performance-Based Award is paid to the Covered Employee. Furthermore, a Covered Employee shall be eligible to receive payment pursuant to a Performance-Based Award for a Performance Period only if the Performance Goals for such period are achieved. In determining the amount earned under a Performance-Based Award, the Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the Performance-Based Award earned for the Performance Period, if in its sole and absolute discretion, such reduction or elimination is appropriate.

     (e) Additional Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any Award which is granted to a Covered Employee and is intended to constitute Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code (including any amendment to Section 162(m) of the Code) or any regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements for qualification as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation, and the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such

requirements.

     SECTION 12. Provisions Applicable to Awards.

     (a) Stand-Alone and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone, or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted no later than the time of grant of such other Awards, and such grants shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A (unless exempt therefrom) and the Plan.

     (b) Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding Section 15(b) hereof, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee.

     SECTION 13. Changes in Capital Structure.

     (a) Adjustments.

          (1) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the price of the Shares, the Committee shall make appropriate proportionate adjustments to reflect such change with respect to (i) the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 4(a) and Section 4(c) hereof); (ii) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); and (iii) subject to Section 14, the grant, exercise, or strike price per Share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan. Any adjustment affecting an Award intended as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.

          (2) In the event of any transaction or event described in this Section 13 or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any Subsidiary, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Committee determines that such action is appropriate in

order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles:

          (i) To provide for either (A) termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 13 the Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment) or (B) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion;

          (ii) To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices;

          (iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and in the number and kind of outstanding Restricted Stock, Performance Shares or Stock Units and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding options, rights and awards and options, rights and awards which may be granted in the future;

          (iv) To provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement; and

          (v) To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such event.

          Any adjustment under this Section 13(a) shall be made only to the extent that such adjustment will not cause a violation of the requirements of Section 409A.

     (b) Acceleration Upon a Change of Ownership. Notwithstanding Section 13(a) above, and except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement entered into between the Company and a Participant, if a Change of Ownership occurs and a Participant’s Awards are not converted, assumed, or replaced by a successor entity, then immediately prior to the Change of Ownership such Awards shall become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on such Awards shall lapse. Upon, or in anticipation of, a Change of Ownership, the Committee may cause any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in the future, including but not limited to the date of such Change of Ownership, and shall give each Participant the right to exercise such Awards during a period of time as the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine; provided, however, that the Committee may not extend the original exercise periods for Options or Stock Appreciation Rights if such extension would cause such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to

violate the requirements of Section 409A; and provided, further, that the Committee may not change the time at which any Other Stock-Based Award may be settled, paid, or exercised if such change would cause a violation of Section 409A. In the event that the terms of any agreement (other than this Plan and any Award Agreement hereunder) between the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company and a Participant contains provisions that conflict with and are more restrictive than the provisions of this Section 13(b), this Section 13(b) shall prevail and control and the more restrictive terms of such agreement (and only such terms) shall be of no force or effect.

     (c) No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award.

     SECTION 14. Amendment and Termination.

     (a) Amendments to the Plan. Subject to the requirements of Section 409A and of Section 15(s) hereof, if applicable, with the approval of the Board, at any time and from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend or modify the Plan; provided, however, that (1) to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with any applicable law, regulation, or securities exchange rule, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required, and (2) stockholder approval is required for any amendment to the Plan that (i) increases the number of shares available under the Plan (other than any adjustment as provided by Section 13 hereof), (ii) permits the Committee to grant Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise or strike price that is below Fair Market Value on the date of grant, (iii) permits the Committee to extend the exercise period for an Option or Stock Appreciation Right beyond ten years from the date of grant, or (iv) expands the class of persons who are eligible to participate in the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, no Option may be amended to reduce the per Share exercise price of the Shares subject to such Option below the per Share exercise price as of the date the Option is granted and, except as permitted by Section 13 hereof, no Option may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an Option having a higher per Share exercise price.

     (b) Amendments to Awards. Except with respect to amendments made pursuant to Section 15(s) hereof, no termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant.

     (c) Cancellation. Any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may cause any Award granted hereunder to be canceled in consideration of a cash payment or alternative Award made to the holder of such canceled

Award equal in value to the Fair Market Value of such canceled Award; provided, however, that no Option may be amended to reduce the per Share exercise price of the Shares subject to such Option below the per Share exercise price as of the date the Option is granted and, except as permitted by Section 13 hereof, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right having a higher per Share exercise price or strike price, and no alternative Award may be made if such action would cause a violation of Section 409A.

     SECTION 15. General Provisions

     (a) Dividend Equivalents. In the sole and complete discretion of the Committee, any Award (other than Award made as an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right) may provide the Participant with dividends or dividend equivalents, payable in cash, Shares, other securities or other property on a current or deferred basis.

     (b) Nontransferability. No Award shall be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, in the case of any Award, except by gift or pursuant to a domestic relations order (as defined in Section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code, and including acceleration of the time of payment as permitted under Section 1.409A-3(j)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations) to members of the Participant’s family, or trusts or other entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are the Participant or members of the Participant’s family, without approval of the stockholders of the Company.

     (c) No Rights to Awards. Except as may be provided in an Employment Agreement, no Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Employees, Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient.

     (d) Share Certificates; Book Entry Procedures.

          (1) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Board has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded. All Share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal, state, or foreign jurisdiction, securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place legends on any Share certificate to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Committee may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations, or do or refrain from such acts, as the Committee, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements.

The Committee shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Committee.

          (2) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Committee or required by any applicable law, rule or regulation, the Company shall not deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares shall be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator).

     (e) Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the Participant’s employment tax obligations) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. The Committee may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the return of Shares) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of Shares which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased from the Participant of such Award) in order to satisfy the Participant’s federal, state, local and foreign income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall be limited to the number of Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income.

     (f) Award Agreements. Each Award hereunder shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement which shall be delivered to the Participant and shall specify the terms and conditions of the Award and any rules applicable thereto, including but not limited to the effect on such Award of the death, Disability, retirement or other termination of employment of a Participant, and the Company’s authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend, cancel or rescind an Award.

     (g) No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from adopting or continuing in effect other compensation arrangements, which may, but need not, provide for the grant of bonuses, options, restricted stock, Shares and other types of Awards provided for hereunder (subject to stockholder approval if such approval is required), and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

     (h) No Right to Employment. Nothing in the Plan or any Award shall be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary. Further, the Company or a Subsidiary may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment, with or without cause, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan.

     (i) No Rights as Stockholder. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award, no Participant or holder or beneficiary of any Award shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed under the Plan until he or she has become the record or beneficial owner of such Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with each grant of Restricted Stock hereunder, the applicable Award shall specify if and to what extent the Participant shall not be entitled to the rights of a stockholder in respect of such Restricted Stock.

     (j) Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and any Award Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except to the extent that the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware is applicable.

     (k) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

     (l) Other Laws. The obligation of the Company to make payment of awards in Shares or otherwise shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by government agencies as may be required. The Company may refuse to issue or transfer any Shares or other consideration under an Award if, acting in its sole discretion, it determines that the issuance or transfer of such Shares or such other consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation or entitle the Company to recover the same under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, and any payment tendered to the Company by a Participant, other holder or beneficiary in connection with the exercise of such Award shall be promptly refunded to the relevant Participant, holder or beneficiary. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Award granted hereunder shall be construed as an offer to sell securities of the Company, and no such offer shall be outstanding, unless and until the Committee in its sole discretion has determined that any such offer, if made, would be in compliance with all applicable requirements of the U.S. federal securities laws and any other laws to which such offer, if made, would be subject. The Company shall be under no obligation to register pursuant to the Securities Act any of the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan. If Shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act, the Company may restrict the transfer of such shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption.

     (m) No Trust or Fund Created. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary or any affiliate and a Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or

any Subsidiary.

     (n) Indemnification. To the extent allowable pursuant to applicable law, each member of the Committee and each member of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided, however, that he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

     (o) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and cash shall be paid in lieu of any fractional Shares, and such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding down.

     (p) Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

     (q) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.

     (r) Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

     (s) Section 409A.

          (1) To the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A. To the extent applicable, the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A, including without limitation any Treasury Regulations or other Department of Treasury guidance that may be issued or amended after the Effective Date or the Amendment Date. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Committee determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A, including such Department of Treasury guidance as

may be issued after the Effective Date or the Amendment Date, the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (A) exempt the Award from Section 409A and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (B) comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

          (2) If, at the time of a Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), (A) such Participant is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A as determined annually by the Committee in accordance with the methodology specified by resolution of the Board or the Committee and in accordance with Section 1.409A-1(i) of the Treasury Regulations) and (B) the Company shall make a good-faith determination that an amount payable pursuant to an Award constitutes “deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to preserve the tax treatment intended for such payment or to avoid additional tax, interest, or penalties under Section 409A, then the Company shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead pay it on the first business day after such six-month period. Such amount shall be paid without interest, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, or as otherwise provided in any applicable agreement between the Company and the relevant Participant.

          (3) For purposes of this Plan, a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A shall mean termination of services provided by a Participant to his or her Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, as determined by the Committee in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). In determining whether a Participant has experienced a Separation from Service, the following provisions shall apply:

          (i) For a Participant who provides services to the Company as an employee, except as otherwise provided in part (iii) of this Subsection, a separation from service shall occur when such Participant has experienced a termination of employment with the Company. Such Participant shall be considered to have experienced a termination of employment when the facts and circumstances indicate that the Participant and the Company reasonably anticipate that either (A) no further services will be performed for the Company after a certain date, or (B) the level of bona fide services the Participant will perform for the Company after such date (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) will permanently decrease to no more than 20% of the average level of bona fide services performed by such Participant (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period (or the full period of services to the Company if the Participant has been providing services to the Company less than 36 months).

     If such Participant is on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence, the employment relationship between the Participant and the Company shall be treated as continuing intact, provided that the period of such leave does not exceed 6 months, or if longer, so long as the Participant retains a right to reemployment with the Company under an applicable statute or by contract. If the period of a military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence exceeds 6 months and the Participant does not retain a right to reemployment under an applicable statute or by contract, the employment relationship shall be considered to be terminated for

purposes of this Plan as of the first day immediately following the end of such 6-month period. In applying the provisions of this paragraph, a leave of absence shall be considered a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Participant will return to perform services for the Company. For purposes of this paragraph, where a leave of absence is due to any physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than six months, where such impairment causes the Participant to be unable to perform the duties of his or her position of employment or any substantially similar position of employment, a 29-month period of absence shall be substituted for such 6-month period.

          (ii) For a Participant who provides services to the Company as an independent contractor, except as otherwise provided in part (iii) of this Subsection, a separation from service shall occur upon the expiration of the contract (or in the case of more than one contract, all contracts) under which services are performed for the Company, provided that the expiration of such contract(s) is determined by the Committee to constitute a good-faith and complete termination of the contractual relationship between the Participant and the Company.

          (iii) For a Participant who provides services to the Company as both an employee and an independent contractor, a separation from service generally shall not occur until the Participant has ceased providing services for such Company as both as an employee and as an independent contractor, as determined in accordance with the provisions set forth in parts (i) and (ii) of this Subsection, respectively. Similarly, if a Participant either (A) ceases providing services for the Company as an independent contractor and begins providing services for the Company as an employee, or (B) ceases providing services for the Company as an employee and begins providing services for the Company as an independent contractor, the Participant will not be considered to have experienced a separation from service until the Participant has ceased providing services for the Company in both capacities, as determined in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in parts (i) and (ii) of this Subsection.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this part (iii), if a Participant provides services for the Company as both an employee and as a director of the Board of the Company, to the extent permitted by Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h)(5) the services provided by such Participant as a director of the Board of the Company shall not be taken into account in determining whether the Participant has experienced a Separation from Service as an employee.

          (iv) For purposes of this Subsection, services performed for the Company shall include service performed both for the Company and for any other corporation that is a member of the same “controlled group” of corporations as the Company under Section 414(b) of the Code or any other trade or business (such as a partnership)_that is under common control with the Company as determined under Section 414(c) of the Code, in each case as modified by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(3) and substituting “at least 50 percent” for “at least 80 percent” each place it appears in Section 1563(a) of the Code or Treasury Regulation Section 1.414(c)-2.

          (4) A Participant shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes, interest, and penalties that may be imposed on such Participant or for such Participant’s account in connection with an Award (including any taxes, interest, and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor its affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise

hold such Participant harmless from any or all of such taxes, interest, or penalties.
