Company Performance Measures
The Plan is based on Company performance against the following measures (the “Company Performance Measures”):
1. FY06 Q1- quarterly Operating Income;
| Page 2 of 9 | December 23, 2005 |
Amended FY06 Quarterly SMI Bonus Plan
Director, Principal, Staff, Staff Associate, and Associate/Clerical
Revised as of December 26, 2006
2. FY06 Q2 - quarterly Operating Income;
3. FY06 Q3 – quarterly Operating Income; and
4. FY06 Q4- quarterly Operating Income, annual Free Cash Flow and annual Revenue.
For FY06 Q4, quarterly Operating Income, annual Free Cash Flow, and annual Revenue are relatively weighted as follows: 50%, 25% and 25%.
Operating Income: For purposes of calculating the bonus accrual under the Plan, “Operating Income” is defined as Operating Income, calculated on a GAAP basis, adjusted to exclude the impact of the following:
| • | Restructuring charges |
| • | In process R & D charges |
| • | Intangible impairment charges |
| • | Stock Compensation Expense |
In addition, any significant one-time event in excess of $20 million (income or expense) may be included or excluded at the discretion of the Leadership Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “LDCC”) . Significant changes to operations may result in changes to the Plan at LDCC discretion.
Free Cash Flow: For purposes of calculating the bonus accrual under the Plan, “Free Cash Flow” is defined as Cash Flow from Operations, calculated on a GAAP basis, less expenditures on Capital and Spares , adjusted for cash flow associated with:
| • | Restructuring Activity |
| • | Real Estate Transactions |
In addition, the cash flows related to any significant one-time event in excess of $20 million (positive or negative) may be included or excluded at the discretion of the LDCC. Significant changes to operations may result in changes to the Plan at LDCC discretion.
Revenue: “Revenue” is defined as net revenue as reported in the Company’s consolidated operations analysis.
Bonus Plan Funding Percentage
The Company uses a schedule (the “Quarterly Bonus Funding Schedule”), which provides percentages based upon the Company’s actual performance against the Company’s goal(s) with respect to the Company Performance Measures for each quarter. The Bonus Plan Funding Percentage is determined for each fiscal quarter as follows:
1. With respect to FY06 Q1-Q3 : By referring to the Quarterly Bonus Funding Schedule, which provides a percentage based on the Company’s actual performance against its goal with respect to quarterly Operating Income.
2. With respect to FY06 Q4 for Participants other than Legacy StorageTek and SeeBeyond Employees and new hires in FY06 Q3 and Q4: By referral to the Quarterly Bonus Funding Schedule, which provides percentages based on the Company’s actual performance against its goals with respect to quarterly Operating Income, annual Free Cash Flow and annual Revenue and then relatively weighting these percentages as described above under the heading “Company Performance Measures.” With respect to each fiscal quarter, this percentage is referred to as the “Bonus Plan Funding Percentage”.

3. With respect to FY06 Q4 for Participants who are Legacy StorageTek and SeeBeyond Employees or new hires in FY06 Q3 or Q4: By referral to the Quarterly Bonus Funding Schedule, which provides percentages based on the Company’s actual performance against its goals with respect to quarterly Operating Income (“Operating Income Percentage”), annual Free Cash Flow (“Free Cash Flow Percentage”) and annual Revenue (“Revenue Percentage”)
Individual Performance
A percentage will be applied to a Participant’s FY06 Q4 bonus calculation ranging from 0%-200% based upon the Participant’s annual performance (the “Individual Performance Percentage”).
Eligible Wages
For Participants who are classified by the Company as exempt or salaried non-exempt, Quarterly Eligible Wages are generally calculated by dividing the number of calendar days of a Participant’s active employment by the Company in a fiscal quarter by the number of calendar days in that quarter and multiplying the resulting percentage by the Participant’s annual base salary on the last day of that fiscal quarter. For Participants who are paid hourly, in lieu of the annual base salary figure, an annual wage figure (the “annual wage”) is determined for purposes of this calculation based upon the Participant’s hourly rate and the schedule of hours worked. For U.S. non-exempt and non-exempt salaried Participants, the annual salary or annual wage figure includes overtime pay (e.g. Shift-differential, Standby/Call-out pay) earned during the Plan year.
An exception applies in determination of eligible wages for FY06 Q4 with regard to Participants hired by the Company on or after the start of FY06 Q3 and for Legacy StorageTek and SeeBeyond Employees who otherwise meet eligibility criteria on or after the start of FY06 Q3. For this population, two eligible wages are calculated: (1) Quarterly Eligible Wages; and ( 2) annual eligible wages, which are calculated by dividing the number of days the Participant is in the Company eligible position in FY06 Q3 and Q4 by the number of calendar days in the fiscal year and multiplying the resulting percentage by the Participant’s annual base salary on the last day of that quarter (or annual wage, as applicable) (“Annual Eligible Wages”).
Quarterly Eligible Wages and Annual Eligible Wages for all Participants exclude relocation allowances, expense reimbursements, tuition reimbursement, car/transportation allowances, expatriate allowances, long-term disability payments, retention bonuses or other retention premium payments, as well as other commissions and bonuses paid during the Plan year. Quarterly Eligible Wages and Annual Eligible Wages are calculated at On-Target Earnings for SMI bonus plan participants who are on Incentive Bonus Plans. For countries outside of the U.S., the eligible wage calculation(s) are subject to local regulations and practices.
The Company reserves the right to pro-rate Plan bonus amounts, in the manner it deems appropriate, based upon any material change (as determined by the Company) in the Participant’s position or annual compensation. In the event the Participant experiences a Status Change during a fiscal quarter, the Company reserves the right to pro-rate a Participant’s Eligible Wages, as determined in its sole discretion. The methods for determining Quarterly Eligible Wages and Annual Eligible Wages in the most common Status Change situations will use the above formulas, as modified below:
For Participants who move from one target award level to another, the Company will utilize separate calculations for each level, using the last annual base salary (or annual wage, as applicable) for each applicable level.
For Participants who retire, become disabled, or die during a quarter within the fiscal year (who may receive a prorated bonus for that quarter, at the Company’s discretion) the Company will utilize their last annual base salary (or annual wage, as applicable) of record in the eligible position.

For a Participant on a paid leave of absence during any quarter of the Plan year, the Company will utilize the the last annual base salary (or annual wage, as applicable) of record for the time the Participant was both actively working and designated on a paid leave status and shall consider the period the Participant is designated as active and the period the Participant is designated as on “Paid Leave” for purposes of determining the “active” days in the quarter . “Paid leave status” will not include any period of time in which the Participant receives earnings from short-term and/or long-term disability except, as required by law.
For Outsourced Employees, the Company will utilize the last annual base salary (or annual wage, as applicable) of record in the Plan-eligible position at the Company and the number of days in the Plan-eligible position during the relevant period. In order to be eligible, those employees must have been employed by the Company in a Plan- eligible position during the quarter in which they transfer. Exceptions to this policy may exist outside of the U.S. based upon local laws and regulations.
For Participants who change from a Plan-ineligible position to a Plan-eligible position (or vice versa), the Company will utilize the last annual base salary (or annual wage, as applicable) in the Plan-eligible position and consider the number of days the Participant is in the Plan-eligible position.
For Participants who experience a change in scheduled hours of work per week, the Company will utilize separate calculations for each Plan-eligible work schedule, using the last annual base salary (or annual wage, as applicable) for each Plan-eligible work schedule within the fiscal quarter and considering the number of days the Participant is in each Plan-eligible position.
Bonus Calculation
FY06 Q1-Q3 – All Participants
A Participant’s quarterly bonus payment for FY06 Q1-Q3 will be calculated as follows:
| Quarterly Bonus Target Percentage |
| x Bonus Plan Funding Percentage |
| x Quarterly Eligible Wages |
| = Actual Quarterly Bonus Payment* |
Example: In FY06 Q2, if the Company achieves 100% of its Operating Income goal, the actual quarterly bonus payment of a Staff Associate who is irregular Full-Time Employee with Quarterly Eligible Wages of $50,000 will be calculated as follows:
| Quarterly Bonus Target Percentage | 2 | % | ||||
| Bonus Plan Funding Percentage | X | 100 | % | |||
| Quarterly Eligible Wages | X | $ | 50,000 | |||
| Actual Quarterly Bonus Payment for FY06 Q2* | $ | 1,000 |
FY06 Q4 – All Participants Except Legacy StorageTek and SeeBeyond Employees and New Hires in FY06 Q3 and Q4
A Participant’s (other than a Participant who is a Legacy StorageTek or SeeBeyond Employee or a new hire during FY06 Q3 or Q4) quarterly bonus payment for FY06 Q4 will be calculated as follows:
Quarterly Bonus Target Percentage
x Bonus Plan Funding Percentage
x Individual Performance Percentage
x Quarterly Eligible Wages
= Actual Quarterly Bonus Payment*

The quarterly bonus payment for FY06 Q4 of a Participant who is a Legacy StorageTek or SeeBeyond Employee or a new hire in FY06 Q3 or Q4, with the same assumptions used in the prior example above (with regard to financial performances on key measures and individual performance Percentage), would be determined as follows:
Step One – Determine Annual Eligible Wages
| Salary on Last Day of FY06 Q4 | $ | 50,000 | ||||
| Number of days in eligible position in FY06 Q3 and Q4 divided by the number of days in fiscal year | X | 40 | % | |||
