Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Description of Business: Founded in 1870, Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (“A&B” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the State of Hawaii. A&B operates in five segments in three industries: Transportation, Real Estate and Agribusiness. These industries are described below:

Transportation: The Transportation Industry consists of Ocean Transportation and Logistics Services segments. The Ocean Transportation segment, which is conducted through Matson Navigation Company, Inc. (“Matson”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of A&B, is an asset-based business that derives its revenue primarily through the carriage of containerized freight between various U.S. Pacific Coast, Hawaii, Guam, China and other Pacific island ports. Additionally, the Ocean Transportation segment has a 35 percent interest in an entity (SSA Terminals, LLC or “SSAT”) that provides terminal and stevedoring services at U.S. Pacific Coast facilities. The Logistics Services segment, which is conducted t hrough Matson Integrated Logistics (“MIL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Matson, is a non-asset based business that is a provider of domestic and international rail intermodal service (“Intermodal”), long-haul and regional highway brokerage, specialized hauling, flat-bed and project work, less-than-truckload, expedited/air freight services, and warehousing and distribution services (collectively “Highway”). Warehousing and distribution services are provided by Matson Global Distribution Services, Inc. (“MGDS”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIL. MGDS’s operations also include Pacific American Services, LLC (“PACAM”), a San Francisco bay-area regional warehousing, packaging, and distribution company.

Real Estate: The Real Estate Industry consists of two segments, both of which have operations in Hawaii and on the U.S. Mainland. The Real Estate Sales segment generates its revenues through the development and sale of land and commercial and residential properties. The Real Estate Leasing segment owns, operates, and manages retail, office, and industrial properties. Real estate activities are conducted through A&B Properties, Inc. and various other wholly-owned subsidiaries of A&B.

Agribusiness: Agribusiness, which contains one segment, produces bulk raw sugar, specialty food-grade sugars, molasses, green coffee and roasted coffee; markets and distributes roasted coffee, green coffee and specialty food-grade sugars; provides general trucking services, mobile equipment maintenance and repair services in Hawaii; and generates and sells, to the extent not used in the Company’s operations, electricity. The Company also is the sole member in Hawaiian Sugar & Transportation Cooperative (“HS&TC”), a cooperative that provides raw sugar marketing and transportation services. HS&TC was consolidated with the Company’s results beginning December 1, 2009.

(1)

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited. Because of the nature of the Company’s operations, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. While these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Therefore, the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

(2)

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance to revise the approach to determine when a variable interest entity (“VIE”) should be consolidated. The new consolidation model for VIEs considers whether the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and shares in the significant risks and rewards of the entity. The guidance on VIEs requires companies to continually reassess VIEs to determine if consolidation is appropriate and provide additional disclosures. The guidance is effective for the Company in 2010. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

(3)	Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies: Commitments and financial arrangements (excluding lease commitments disclosed in Note 8 of the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009) at March 31, 2010, included the following (in millions):

Standby letters of credit	(a)	$10
Performance and customs bonds	(b)	$19
Benefit plan withdrawal obligations	(c)	$89

These amounts are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet and it is not expected that the Company or its subsidiaries will be called upon to advance funds under these commitments.

(a)

Represents letters of credit, of which approximately $8 million enable the Company to qualify as a self-insurer for state and federal workers’ compensation liabilities. Additionally, the balance also includes a $2 million letter of credit for insurance-related matters for one of the Company’s real estate projects.

(b)

Consists of approximately $16 million in U.S. customs bonds, approximately $1 million in bonds related to real estate construction projects in Hawaii, and approximately $2 million related to transportation and other matters.

(c)

Represents the withdrawal liabilities as of the most recent valuation dates for multiemployer pension plans, in which Matson is a participant. Management has no present intention of withdrawing from, and does not anticipate the termination of, any of the aforementioned plans.

Indemnity Agreements: For certain real estate joint ventures, the Company may be obligated under bond indemnities to complete construction of the real estate development if the joint venture does not perform. These indemnities are designed to protect the surety. The Company previously recorded liabilities for three indemnities it provided in connection with surety bonds issued to cover construction activities, such as project amenities, roads, utilities, and other infrastructure, at three of its joint ventures. The recorded amounts of the liabilities were not material. Under the indemnities, the Company and its joint venture partners agree to indemnify the surety bond issuer from all losses and expenses arising from the failure of the joint venture to complete the specified bonded construction. The maximum potential amount of aggregate future payments is a function of the amount covered by outstanding bonds at the time of default by the joint venture, reduced by the amount of work completed to date.

Completion Guarantees: For certain real estate joint ventures, the Company may be required to perform work to complete construction if the joint venture fails to complete construction. These guarantees are intended to assure the joint venture’s lender that the project will be completed as represented to the lender. The Company previously recorded liabilities for two completion guarantees it provided in connection with joint venture development projects. The recorded amounts of these liabilities were not material. The maximum potential amount of aggregate future payments related to the Company’s completion guarantees is a function of the work agreed to be completed, reduced by the amount of work completed to date at the time of default by the joint venture.

Legal Proceedings and Other Contingencies: A&B owns 16,000 acres of watershed lands in East Maui that supply a significant portion of the irrigation water used by HC&S. A&B also held four water licenses to another 30,000 acres owned by the State of Hawaii in East Maui, which over the years has supplied approximately two-thirds of the irrigation water used by HC&S. The last of these water license agreements expired in 1986, and all four agreements were then extended as revocable permits that were renewed annually. In 2001, a request was made to the State Board of Land and Natural Resources (the “BLNR”) to replace these revocable permits with a long-term water lease. Pending the conclusion by the BLNR of this contested case hearing on the request for the l ong-term lease, the BLNR has renewed the existing permits on a holdover basis. If the Company is not permitted to divert stream waters from State lands in East Maui for its use, it would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s sugar-growing operations.

In addition, on May 24, 2001, petitions were filed by a third party, requesting that the Commission on Water Resource Management of the State of Hawaii (“Water Commission”) amend interim instream flow standards (“IIFS”) in 27 East Maui streams that feed the Company’s irrigation system. On September 25, 2008, the Water Commission took action on eight of the petitions, resulting in some quantity of water being returned to the streams rather than being utilized for irrigation purposes. While the loss of the water as a result of the Water Commission’s action on the eight petitions may not significantly impair the Company’s sugar-growing operations, similar losses of water on the remaining 19 streams would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s sugar-growing operations. In December 2009 , the Water Commission conducted deliberations on the amendment of IIFS for the remaining 19 East Maui streams, but deferred action. The Commission is expected to issue a decision by mid 2010. The Company, at this time, is unable to determine what action the Water Commission will take with respect to all 27 streams.

On June 25, 2004, two organizations filed with the Water Commission a petition to amend IIFS for four streams in West Maui to increase the amount of water to be returned to these streams. The West Maui irrigation system provides approximately one-sixth of the irrigation water used by HC&S. The Water Commission’s deliberations on whether to amend the current IIFS for the West Maui streams are currently ongoing, and a decision that results in a quantity of water being returned to the streams, rather than being utilized for irrigation purposes, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s sugar-growing operations. A decision by the Water Commission is expected in mid 2010.

On April 21, 2008, Matson was served with a grand jury subpoena from the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida for documents and information relating to water carriage in connection with the Department of Justice’s investigation into the pricing and other competitive practices of carriers operating in the domestic trades. Matson understands that while the investigation was initiated in the Puerto Rico trade, it also includes pricing and other competitive practices in connection with all domestic trades, including the Alaska, Hawaii and Guam trades. Matson does not operate vessels in the Puerto Rico and Alaska trades. It does operate vessels in the Hawaii and Guam trades. Matson has cooperated, and will continue to cooperate, fully with the Department of Justice. If the Department of Justice believes that any violat ions have occurred on the part of Matson or the Company, it could seek civil or criminal sanctions, including monetary fines. The Company is unable to predict, at this time, the outcome or financial impact, if any, of this investigation.

The Company and Matson were named as defendants in a consolidated civil lawsuit purporting to be a class action in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington in Seattle. The lawsuit alleged violations of the antitrust laws and also named as a defendant Horizon Lines, Inc., another domestic shipping carrier operating in the Hawaii and Guam trades. On August 18, 2009, the court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. The court granted the plaintiffs leave to amend the complaint by May 10, 2010 to allege claims consistent with the court’s order. If the plaintiffs file an amended complaint, the Company and Matson will continue to vigorously defend themselves in this lawsuit. The Company is unable to predict, at this time, the outcome or financial impact, if any, of this lawsuit if an amended c omplaint is filed.

In June 2006, Matson and its Long Beach terminal operator, SSAT LLC, completed negotiations of an amendment to the Preferential Assignment Agreement with the City of Long Beach that includes changes requested by Matson to implement its new China Service as well as environmental covenants applicable to vessels which call at Pier C. The environmental requirements are part of programs proposed by both the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach designed to reduce airborne emissions in the port area. Under the amendment, Matson is required to install equipment on all its motor vessels to allow them to accept a shore-based electrical power source instead of using the vessel’s diesel generators while in port (“cold ironing”) and to phase out calls by its steamships by 2020. In December 2008, the Office of Administrative Law appro ved regulations put forth by the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) which mandate cold ironing of diesel powered container ships at major ports starting in 2014. The CARB regulations put the responsibility for shoreside electrical infrastructure on the terminal operator. Matson’s lease agreement commits the Port of Long Beach to providing the shoreside infrastructure and construction commenced in 2009 and is expected to be completed in 2010. However, the Port of Oakland has not yet made a commitment to provide the required infrastructure at the Company’s Oakland terminal and therefore, SSAT may be held responsible for this cost. SSAT submitted the required terminal plan to CARB on July 1, 2009, but the plan has not yet been approved. The cost of the required infrastructure improvements has not been estimated. The modifications to Matson’s vessels to accommodate cold ironing will occur at each of their next scheduled out–of-water drydockings. Two vessels have been retrofitted through 2009 and one is scheduled for 2010. The estimated costs of the modifications are projected at $13.7 million for the eight motor vessels including design and engineering costs, and the cost for vessel stepdown transformers to accommodate the power provided at the dock. The costs of the modifications are recorded as capital assets because they provide future economic benefits.

The Company is subject to possible climate change legislation, regulation and international accords. Numerous bills related to climate change, such as limiting and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a “cap and trade” system of allowances and credits, have been introduced in the U.S. Congress. If enacted, these regulations could impose significant additional costs on the Company, including increased energy costs, higher material prices, and costly mandatory vessel and equipment modifications. The Company is unable to predict, at this time, the outcome or financial impact, if any, of future climate change related legislation.

In addition to the above matters, the Company and certain subsidiaries are parties to various other legal actions and are contingently liable in connection with claims and contracts arising in the normal course of business, the outcome of which, in the opinion of management after consultation with legal counsel, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(4)	Earnings Per Share (“EPS”): The number of shares used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in millions):

	Quarter Ended
	March 31,
	2010	2009
Denominator for basic EPS - weighted average shares	41.1	41.0
Effect of dilutive securities:
Employee/director stock options, non-vested common stock, and restricted stock units	0.2	--
Denominator for diluted EPS - weighted average shares	41.3	41.0

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive common shares been issued. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include non-qualified stock options, non-vested common stock, and restricted stock units.

The computation of weighted average dilutive shares outstanding excluded non-qualified stock options to purchase 1.5 million and 2.3 million shares of common stock during the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These options were excluded because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the periods presented and, therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive.

(5)

Share-Based Compensation: On January 27, 2010, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to purchase 422,156 shares of the Company’s common stock. The grant-date fair value of each stock option granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $6.60 using the following weighted average assumptions: volatility of 28.8%, risk-free interest rate of 2.7%, dividend yield of 3.8%, and expected term of 5.8 years.

Activity in the Company’s stock option plans for the first quarter of 2010 was as follows (in thousands, except weighted average exercise price and weighted average contractual life):

			Predecessor Plans						Weighted	Weighted
			1998		1998				Average	Average	Aggregate
	2007		Employee		Directors’		Total		Exercise	Contractual	Intrinsic
	Plan		Plan		Plan		Shares		Price	Life	Value

Outstanding, January 1, 2010	958		1,291		196		2,445		$36.80
Granted	422		--		--		422		$33.02
Exercised	--		(46	)	(6	)	(52	)	$25.68

Outstanding, March 31, 2010	1,378		1,245		190		2,813		$36.43	6.0	$7,406

Exercisable, March 31, 2010	478		1,245		190		1,913		$38.62	4.8	$4,222

The following table summarizes non-vested common stock and restricted stock unit activity through March 31, 2010 (in thousands, except weighted average grant-date fair value amounts):

				Predecessor
	2007			Plans
	Plan		Weighted	Non-Vested		Weighted
	Restricted		Average	Common		Average
	Stock		Grant-Date	Stock		Grant-Date
	Units		Fair Value	Shares		Fair Value

Outstanding, January 1, 2010	427		$27.06	15		$48.19
Granted	162		$33.02	--		--
Vested	(75	)	$30.15	(15	)	$48.19
Canceled	(181	)	$23.39	--		--
Outstanding, March 31, 2010	333		$31.27	--		--

A portion of the restricted stock unit awards are time-based awards that vest ratably over three years. The remaining portion of the awards represents performance-based awards that vest after three years, provided certain performance targets related to the first year of the performance period are achieved.

A summary of compensation cost related to share-based payments is as follows (in millions):

	Quarter Ended
	March 31,
	2010			2009
Share-based expense (net of estimated forfeitures):
Stock options	$	0.4		$	0.9
Non-vested stock/Restricted stock units		1.2			1.7
Total share-based expense		1.6			2.6
Total recognized tax benefit		(0.5	)		(0.7	)
Share-based expense (net of tax)	$	1.1		$	1.9

(6)

Accounting for and Classification of Discontinued Operations: As required by FASB ASC Subtopic 205-20, Discontinued Operations, the sales of certain income-producing assets are classified as discontinued operations if (i) the operations and cash flows of the component have been, or will be, eliminated from the ongoing operations of the Company as a result of the disposal transaction and (ii) the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. Certain income-producing properties that are classified as “held for sale” under the requirements of FASB ASC Subtopic 205-20, are also treated as discontinued operations. Depreciation on these assets ceases upon classification as discontinued operations. Sales of land, residential units, and office condominium units are generally considered inventory and are not included in discontinued operations.

Income from discontinued operations consisted of (in millions):

	Quarter Ended
	March 31,
	2010		2009
Discontinued Operations
Sales of Assets	$	13.1	$	5.2
Leasing Operations		0.1		1.9
Income from discontinued operations (net of tax)	$	13.2	$	7.1

Discontinued operations includes the results for properties that were sold through March 31, 2010 and, if applicable, the operating results of properties still owned, but meet the definition of “discontinued operations” under FASB ASC Subtopic 205-20. Operating results included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the segment results (Note 9) for the first quarter of 2009 have been restated to reflect property that was classified as discontinued operations subsequent to March 31, 2009.

(7)	Comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 consisted of (in millions):

	Quarter Ended
	March 31,
	2010		2009
Net income	$	17.3	$	3.0
Amortization of unrealized pension asset loss		1.8		0.3
Comprehensive income	$	19.1	$	3.3

(8)

Pension and Post-retirement Plans: The Company has defined benefit pension plans that cover substantially all non-bargaining unit and certain bargaining unit employees. The Company also has unfunded non-qualified plans that provide benefits in excess of the amounts permitted to be paid under the provisions of the tax law to participants in qualified plans. The assumptions related to discount rates, expected long-term rates of return on invested plan assets, salary increases, age, mortality and health care cost trend rates, along with other factors, are used in determining the assets, liabilities and expenses associated with pension benefits. Management reviews the assumptions annually with its independent actuaries, taking into consideration existing and future economic conditions and the Company’s intentions with respect to these plans. Management believes that its assumptions and estimates for 20 10 are reasonable. Different assumptions, however, could result in material changes to the assets, obligations and costs associated with benefit plans.

The components of net periodic benefit cost recorded for the first quarters of 2010 and 2009 were as follows (in millions):

	Pension Benefits						Post-retirement Benefits
	2010			2009			2010		2009

Service cost	$	2.1		$	2.0		$	0.2	$	0.2

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Company, from time to time, may make or may have made certain forward-looking statements, whether orally or in writing, such as forecasts and projections of the Company’s future performance or statements of management’s plans and objectives. These statements are “forward-looking” statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may be contained in, among other things, Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings, such as the Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, the Annual Report to Shareholders, press releases made by the Company, the Company’s Internet Web sites (including Web sites of its subsidiaries), and oral statements made by the officers of the Company. Except for h istorical information contained in these written or oral communications, such communications contain forward-looking statements. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for the Company to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, forward-looking statements cannot be relied upon as a guarantee of future results and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the statements, including, but not limited to the factors that are described in Part I, Item 1A under the caption of “Risk Factors” of the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company is not required, and undertakes no obligation, to revise or update forward-looking statements or any factors that may affect actual results, whether as a result of new information, future events, or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (“A&B”), founded in 1870, is a multi-industry corporation headquartered in Honolulu that operates in five segments in three industries—Transportation, Real Estate, and Agribusiness.

The Logistics Services segment, which is conducted through Matson Integrated Logistics, Inc. (“MIL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Matson, is a non-asset based business that is a provider of domestic and international rail intermodal service (“Intermodal”), long-haul and regional highway brokerage, specialized hauling, flat-bed and project work, less-than-truckload, expedited/air freight services, and warehousing and distribution services (collectively “Highway”). Warehousing and distribution services are provided by Matson Global Distribution Services, Inc. (“MGDS”), a subsidiary of MIL. MGDS’s operations also include Pacific American Services, LLC (“PACAM”), a San Francisco bay-area regional warehousing, packaging, and dist ribution company.

Agribusiness: Agribusiness contains one segment and produces bulk raw sugar, specialty food-grade sugars, molasses, green coffee and roasted coffee; markets and distributes roasted coffee, green coffee and specialty food-grade sugars; provides general trucking services, mobile equipment maintenance, and repair services in Hawaii; and generates and sells, to the extent not used in the Company’s operations, electricity. The Company is also the sole member in Hawaiian Sugar & Transportation Cooperative (“HS&TC”), a cooperative that provides raw sugar marketing and transportation services. HS&TC was consolidated with the Company’s results beginning December 1, 2009.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated – First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			Change
Operating revenue	$	345.0		$	315.3		9	%
Operating costs and expenses		332.7			316.3		5	%
Operating income (loss)		12.3			(1.0	)	NM
Other income and (expense)		(4.7	)		(5.5	)	15	%
Income (loss) before taxes		7.6			(6.5	)	NM
Income tax expense (benefit)		3.5			(2.4	)	NM

Basic earnings per share	$	0.42		$	0.07		6	X
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.42		$	0.07		6	X

Consolidated operating revenue for the first quarter of 2010 increased $29.7 million, or 9 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2009. This increase was principally due to $28.4 million in higher revenue for Ocean Transportation, $4.5 million in higher revenue from Real Estate Sales (excluding revenue from property sales classified as discontinued operations), partially offset by $3.5 million in lower revenue for Agribusiness. The reasons for the revenue decline are described below, by business segment, in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Profit by Segment.

Operating costs and expenses for the first quarter of 2010 increased $16.4 million, or 5 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2009. This increase was principally due to a $28.3 million increase in cost for the transportation segments, partially offset by $7.5 million in lower general and administrative costs and $4.4 million in lower Agribusiness expenses. The reasons for the operating cost and expense changes are described below, by business segment, in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Profit by Segment.

Other income and (expense) decreased $0.8 million, primarily due to $1.8 million of higher interest income related to the payoff on a mortgage note acquired in the fourth quarter of 2009, partially offset by $0.9 million of higher interest expense resulting from the $100 million increase in term notes drawn in March 2009.

Income taxes increased by $5.9 million, principally due to earnings from continuing operations in the first quarter of 2010 as compared to a loss from continuing operations in 2009. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2010 increased relative to the first quarter of 2009 due to higher non-deductible expenses that had a greater impact on the effective tax rate relative to the prior quarter.

Discontinued operations increased by $6.1 million, primarily due to the sale of the Mililani Shopping Center in the first quarter of 2010. Sales from our commercial portfolio are treated as discontinued operations, but are an integral part of our tax-deferred reinvestment strategy.

ANALYSIS OF OPERATING REVENUE AND PROFIT BY SEGMENT

TRANSPORTATION INDUSTRY

Ocean Transportation – First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			Change
Revenue	$	229.5		$	201.1		14	%
Operating profit (loss)	$	10.4		$	(0.5	)	NM
Operating profit margin		4.5	%		-0.2	%
Volume (Units)*
Hawaii containers		31,400			32,500		-3	%
Hawaii automobiles		21,800			14,400		51	%
China containers		13,200			9,600		38	%
Guam containers		3,500			3,400		3	%

*Container volumes included for the period are based on the voyage departure date, but revenue and operating profit are adjusted to reflect the percentage of revenue and operating profit earned during the reporting period for voyages that straddle the beginning or end of each reporting period.

Ocean Transportation revenue increased 14 percent, or $28.4 million, in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009. The revenue increase was due primarily to higher China volumes, resulting in a $12.4 million improvement, a $12.6 million increase in fuel surcharges due to higher fuel prices in 2010 as compared to 2009, and $2.2 million in higher revenue due to the fulfillment of a military contract move during the first quarter of 2010.

Total Hawaii container volume was down 3 percent in the first quarter of 2010, due primarily to a change in the year-end sailing schedule that shifted cargo into December 2009, continuing demand weakness in Hawaii’s construction industry, and further declines in eastbound cargo of agricultural products. Matson’s Hawaii automobile volume for the quarter was 51 percent higher than the first quarter of 2009, due primarily to the timing of automobile rental fleet replacement activity. China container volume increased 38 percent, due to an increase in market demand and constrained industry capacity.

Ocean Transportation’s operating profit increased $10.9 million in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009. The increase in operating profit was principally due to a $6 million charge recorded in the first quarter of 2009 related to Matson’s 2009 workforce reduction program, as well as the ongoing benefit of reduced staffing levels. Operating profit increased during the quarter due to a $10.1 million improvement from overall higher container volume, primarily related to China, but the increase was partially offset by (a) increased terminal handling costs of $5.9 million, due to increased fees and handling charges, and (b) increased vessel expenses of $2.0 million, principally resulting from higher fuel costs that were partially offset by lower insurance and claim expenses and lower vessel wages due to fewer vessel voyage days. Matson’s share of SSAT joint venture earnings increased by $2.5 million, principally due to higher container lift volumes in 2010, but also due to SSAT’s cost saving initiatives implemented in 2009.

Logistics Services – First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			Change
Intermodal revenue	$	44.6		$	44.5		--	%
Highway revenue		32.5			31.7		3	%
Total Revenue	$	77.1		$	76.2		1	%
Operating profit	$	1.9		$	1.5		27	%
Operating profit margin		2.5	%		2.0	%

Logistics Services revenue increased 1 percent, or $0.9 million, in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009. This increase was principally the result of an increase in highway volume, largely due to Logistics Service’s participation in the fulfillment of Matson’s military contract move described previously.

Logistics Services operating profit increased 27 percent, or $0.4 million, to $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009. The operating profit increase was due principally to an improvement in Highway volumes and lower general and administrative expenses, but was partially offset by lower Intermodal yields.

REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY

Real Estate Leasing and Real Estate Sales revenue and operating profit are analyzed before subtracting amounts related to discontinued operations. This is consistent with how the Company evaluates and makes decisions regarding capital allocation, acquisitions, and dispositions for the Company’s real estate businesses. A discussion of discontinued operations for the real estate business is included separately.

Effect of Property Sales on Operating Results: Direct year-over-year comparison of the real estate sales results may not provide a consistent, measurable barometer of future performance because results from period to period are significantly affected by the mix and timing of property sales. Operating results, by virtue of each project’s asset class, geography, and timing, are inherently episodic. Earnings from joint venture investments are not included in segment revenue, but are included in operating profit. The mix of real estate sales in any year or quarter can be diverse and can include developed residential real estate, commercial properties, developable subdivision lots, undeveloped land, and property sold under threat of condemnation. The sale of undeveloped land a nd vacant parcels in Hawaii generally provides higher margins than does the sale of developed and commercial property, due to the low historical-cost basis of the Company’s Hawaii land. Consequently, real estate sales revenue trends, cash flows from the sales of real estate, and the amount of real estate held for sale on the balance sheets do not necessarily indicate future profitability trends for this segment. Additionally, the operating profit reported in each quarter does not necessarily follow a percentage of sales trend because the cost basis of property sold can differ significantly between transactions. The reporting of real estate sales is also affected by the classification of certain real estate sales as discontinued operations.

Real Estate Leasing – First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			Change
Revenue	$	23.6		$	27.2		-13	%
Operating profit	$	9.1		$	12.0		-24	%
Operating profit margin		38.6	%		44.1	%
Occupancy Rates:
Mainland		85	%		90	%	-5	%
Hawaii		94	%		95	%	-1	%
Leasable Space (million sq. ft.):
Mainland		7.2			7.1		1	%
Hawaii		1.1			1.4		-21	%

Real Estate Leasing revenue for the first quarter of 2010, before subtracting amounts presented as discontinued operations, was 13 percent lower than 2009, primarily due to lower Mainland occupancies and rents as well as the revenue impact resulting from the timing of acquisitions and dispositions. Properties sold under the Company’s 1031 exchange program are generally replaced within 180 days of the sale, but may result in lower revenue and operating profit during the interim period prior to reinvestment.

Operating profit for the first quarter of 2010, before subtracting amounts presented as discontinued operations, was 24 percent lower than 2009, principally due to lower occupancy and rents in the Mainland portfolio, as well as the timing impact of acquisitions and dispositions, as previously described. At March 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $86 million in tax-deferred proceeds that had not yet been reinvested.

Leasable space was reduced by 163,800 square feet in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009, principally due to the following activity:

Dispositions			Acquisitions
Date	Property	Leasable sq. ft	Date	Property	Leasable sq. ft
2-10	Kele Center (HI)	14,800	1-10	Meadows on the Parkway (CO)	216,400
1-10	Mililani Shopping Center (HI)	180,300	12-09	Firestone Boulevard Building (CA)	28,100
12-09	Village at Indian Wells (CA)	104,600	9-09	Waipio Shopping Center (HI)	113,800
10-09	Pacific Guardian Tower (HI)	130,600	8-09	Northpoint Industrial (CA)	119,400
9-09	San Jose Avenue Warehouse (CA)	126,000
6-09	Hawaii Business Park (HI)	85,200

	Total Dispositions	641,500		Total Acquisitions	477,700

Real Estate Sales –First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009		Change
Improved property sales	$	55.2		$	20.1	3	X
Development sales		0.7			0.4	75	%

Operating profit before joint ventures	$	22.1		$	5.6	4	X
Equity in losses from joint ventures		(0.7	)		--	NM
Total operating profit	$	21.4		$	5.6	4	X

2010 First Quarter: Revenue from Real Estate Sales was $60.3 million and included the sales of the Mililani Shopping Center on Oahu, Kele Center on Maui, a 75-acre parcel to Kauai County for affordable housing, and one Keola La’i condominium unit on Oahu. In addition to the sales described above, operating profit included $1.8 million from the payoff of an investment in a non-performing mortgage loan that was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2009, the sale of one unit at the Company’s Kai Malu residential joint venture development on Maui, and the sale of three units at the Company’s Ka Milo joint venture development on the island of Hawaii, partially offset by other joint venture holding costs.

2009 First Quarter: Revenue from Real Estate Sales was $25.2 million. Real Estate Sales revenue included the sale of the Southbank II office building in Arizona, two leased fee parcels in Kahului on Maui, and one Keala’ula single-family home on Kauai. In addition to the sales described above, Real Estate Sales operating profit for the first quarter of 2009 included one unit sold at the Company’s Kai Malu residential joint venture development on Maui and rental revenue from the Bridgeport Marketplace retail center development in California, offset by holding costs for other joint venture developments.

Real Estate Discontinued Operations – First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

Revenue and operating profit related to discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2010 were as follows:

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions, before tax)	2010		2009
Sales revenue	$	55.2	$	24.6
Leasing revenue	$	0.3	$	5.2
Sales operating profit	$	20.7	$	8.4
Leasing operating profit	$	0.3	$	3.1

The leasing revenue and operating profit noted above includes the results for properties that were sold through March 31, 2010 and, if applicable, the operating results of properties still owned, but meet the definition of “discontinued operations” under FASB ASC Subtopic 205-20. The leasing revenue and operating profit for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009 have been restated to reflect property that was classified as discontinued operations subsequent to March 31, 2009.

AGRIBUSINESS

Agribusiness – First quarter of 2010 compared with 2009

	Quarter Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			Change
Revenue	$	14.2		$	17.7		-20	%
Operating loss	$	(1.1	)	$	(1.9	)	42	%
Tons sugar produced		--			12,200		-100	%

Agribusiness revenue decreased 20 percent, or $3.5 million, in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009, due principally to a $3 million reduction in revenue resulting from the absence of bulk raw sugar sales. The 2010 sugar harvest started later, as planned, to provide additional time for crop growth and factory maintenance.

Operating loss decreased $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due principally to $3.2 million of negative bulk raw sugar margins recorded in 2009, partially offset by a $1.9 million lower of cost or market adjustment to coffee inventory in 2010 that was primarily related to reduced market value of green coffee beans.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview: Cash flows provided by operating activities are generally the Company’s primary source of liquidity. Additional sources of liquidity were provided by available cash and cash equivalent balances as well as borrowings on available credit facilities.

Cash Flows: Cash flows from operating activities totaled $5 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with $8 million for the first quarter of 2009. This decrease was due principally to investments in working capital, partially offset by higher Matson earnings.

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $22 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with cash flows from investing activities of $8 million for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was due principally to the receipt of $23 million of expired 1031 funds during the first quarter of 2009 that were not reinvested, $6 million in higher proceeds from disposal of assets during 2009, and a $9 million net increase in investments in 2010, principally related to investments in the Company’s Kukui’ula joint venture, partially offset by $8 million in lower capital expenditures in 2010.

Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2010 totaled $8 million compared with $16 million for the first quarter of 2009. The 2010 expenditures included $3 million for the purchase of transportation-related assets, $3 million related to Agribusiness operations, and $2 million related to real estate related acquisitions, development and property improvements. Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2009 totaled $16 million and included $8 million related to real estate related acquisitions, development and property improvements, $6 million for the purchase of transportation-related assets, and $2 million related to Agribusiness operations. The 2010 amounts reported in Capital Expenditures on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows excluded $31 million of tax-deferred pu rchases since the Company did not actually take control of the cash during the exchange period. The 2009 amounts reported in Capital Expenditures on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows excluded $50 million of tax-deferred purchases.

Cash flows from financing activities totaled $21 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared with cash flows used in financing activities of $25 million in the first quarter of 2009. The Company increased debt by a net $33 million in the first quarter of 2010, as compared to a net decrease in debt of $11 million in the first quarter of 2009.

The Company believes that funds generated from results of operations, available cash and cash equivalents, and available borrowings under credit facilities will be sufficient to finance the Company’s business requirements for this fiscal year, including working capital, capital expenditures, dividends, and potential acquisitions and stock repurchases. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will continue to generate cash flows at or above current levels or that it will be able to maintain its ability to borrow under its available credit facilities.

Sources of Liquidity: Additional sources of liquidity for the Company, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and sugar and coffee inventories, totaled $237 million at March 31, 2010, an increase of $22 million from December 31, 2009. The increase was due primarily to $19 million in higher sugar and coffee inventories and a $4 million increase in cash and cash equivalents.

The Company also has various revolving credit and term facilities that provide additional sources of liquidity for working capital requirements or investment opportunities on a short-term as well as longer-term basis. Total debt was $504 million as of March 31, 2010, compared with $471 million at the end of 2009. The increase in debt was primarily due to borrowings on revolving credit facilities. As of March 31, 2010, available capacity under these facilities totaled $390 million.

Balance Sheet: Working capital was $40 million at March 31, 2010, an increase of $30 million from the consolidated balance at the end of 2009. The increase in working capital was due primarily to a $19 million increase in inventory, a $29 million reduction to the current portion of long-term debt, and a $9 million reduction in accounts payable, partially offset by a $30 million decrease in real estate held-for-sale inventory related to the sale of the Mililani Shopping Center on Oahu.

Tax-Deferred Real Estate Exchanges: Sales – During the first quarter of 2010, $57 million of proceeds from the sales of the Mililani Shopping Center on Oahu, Kele Center on Maui, and a 75-acre parcel on Kauai qualified for potential tax-deferral treatment under the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. During the first quarter of 2009, $19 million of proceeds from the sales of Southbank II office building in Arizona, two leased fee parcels in Kahului, Maui, and one remnant parcel in Haiku on Maui qualified for potential tax-deferral treatment under the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. An additional $5 million of proceeds were applied to a previous purchase under a reverse 1031 purchase transaction.

Purchases – During the first quarter of 2010, the Company utilized $31 million in proceeds from tax-deferred sales to purchase the Meadows on the Parkway shopping center in Colorado. During the first quarter of 2009, the Company utilized $54.5 million in proceeds from tax-deferred sales to purchase the Activity Distribution Center in California and the Waipio Industrial Center on Oahu.

The proceeds from 1031 tax-deferred sales are held in escrow pending future use to purchase new real estate assets. The proceeds from 1033 condemnations are held by the Company until the funds are redeployed. As of March 31, 2010, there was $86 million of proceeds from tax-deferred sales that had not been reinvested. Approximately $1 million of tax-deferred proceeds expired during the quarter and were not reinvested. An additional $6 million of tax deferred proceeds are expected to expire without reinvestment in the second quarter of 2010.

The funds related to 1031 transactions are not included in cash flows from investing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows but are disclosed as non-cash activities. For “reverse 1031” transactions, the Company purchases a property in anticipation of receiving funds from a future property sale. Funds used for reverse 1031 purchases are included as capital expenditures on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the related sales of property, for which the proceeds are linked, are included as property sales in the Statement.

Commitments, Contingencies and Off-balance Sheet Arrangements: A description of other commitments, contingencies, and off-balance sheet arrangements at March 31, 2010, and herein incorporated by reference, is included in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements of Item 1 in this Form 10-Q.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

All of the forward-looking statements made herein are qualified by the inherent risks of the Company’s operations and the markets it serves, as described more fully on pages 17-26 of the Form 10-K in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report.

The Company operates in multiple industries in domestic and international markets, and its operations are impacted by regional, national and international economic and market trends. Still, a majority of the Company’s operations are centered in Hawaii and a corresponding measure of the Company’s performance is directly influenced by the fundamentals of the Hawaii economy.

Throughout 2009, the Hawaii economy weakened as a result of macro-economic trends that affected U.S. Mainland and international markets. More recently, early signs of economic improvement in Hawaii have begun to surface, including increases in tourism and residential real estate sales, though it is likely to take some time before a recovery has any meaningful effect on A&B’s Hawaii operations. The U.S. Mainland is seeing modest economic growth, including long-awaited increases in business and consumer spending and manufacturing orders, which has been positive for demand in Matson’s China trade lane. However, persistently high unemployment and weakness in the Mainland real estate markets continue to negatively impact performance of the Company’s Real Estate Leasing segment.

Transportation: Matson’s 2010 first quarter operating and financial performance improved relative to the first quarter of 2009, primarily as a result of the non-recurrence of a $6 million workforce reduction charge recorded in the first quarter of 2009, and increased container volumes in the China shipping service. The increase in China volumes was driven by both better economic conditions as mentioned above, and reduced shipping capacity in that trade lane. Container volumes in the Hawaii service were near year-ago levels and appear to be stabilizing. Overall, yields were flat in the first quarter compared with the same quarter a year ago.

The solid demand in volumes and reduced China trade lane capacity resulted in a successful rate negotiation season that concluded at the end of April 2010. These higher rates should benefit 2010 second half results compared with the results for the second half of 2009; however, these benefits could be tempered if other carriers increase China shipping capacity or fuel prices continue to rise. In the Hawaii trade lane, the Company expects the relative stability in volumes and rates seen in the first quarter to continue throughout 2010. Container volumes in Guam are projected to grow modestly late in 2010 due to the anticipated start of the military buildup, and rates are expected to remain steady for the balance of the year.

Matson Integrated Logistics’ first quarter 2010 performance improved relative to the first quarter of 2009 as the Intermodal segment stabilized and the Highway segment improved due to a large military contract and higher truckload activity. However, competition and available capacity continue to place downward pressure on overall yield. The Company remains focused on organic growth opportunities and improving operating efficiencies, while seeking to expand in new markets through strategic recruiting initiatives.

Real Estate: The Company is seeing continued demand and favorable pricing for quality commercial properties, as evidenced by the sale of the Mililani Shopping Center in January. This sale was the key driver of improved real estate sales operating profit in the first quarter compared with the same quarter a year ago. While signs of a recovery in Hawaii’s real estate market are starting to appear, the Company remains tempered in its outlook for real estate development sales this year, with only nominal sales expected. In the meantime, the Company continues to vigorously pursue project design, permitting and, where appropriate, construction, to position its projects to meet expected demand as real estate markets recover.

The commercial leasing portfolio continues to feel the effects of a weak Mainland real estate market. Revenues continue to trend downward due to lower lease renewal rates and market rents. On a sequential basis, however, Mainland occupancies held constant at the 85 percent level recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009. Hawaii occupancies were still strong at 94 percent, although market rates are also beginning to be affected by the soft economy. First quarter performance has also been impacted by the timing of sales and acquisitions, with sales outpacing acquisitions. At quarter end, approximately $86 million in sales proceeds from commercial property sales had not been reinvested in replacement properties. The Company will continue to pursue the selective sale of commercial properties from its portfolio where property valu es have been maximized, and reinvest sales proceeds, through tax-advantaged 1031 exchanges, in assets offering higher appreciation potential.

The Company remains focused on potential investments in development projects and distressed real estate in Hawaii, and in the fourth quarter of 2009, completed two modest non-performing mortgage loan acquisitions in the state. One of these mortgages was paid off in the first quarter, resulting in $1.8 million in operating profit. The timing and scale of further investments, however, remains uncertain and will be dependent upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, risk and return thresholds, underlying land valuations, and the availability of other capital investment opportunities.

Agribusiness: Agribusiness’ first quarter 2010 operating loss declined 42 percent to $1.1 million compared with the first quarter of 2009. The expectation for significant improvement in Agribusiness performance in 2010 is unchanged. At HC&S, yield forecasts remain positive, and although market prices for sugar have fallen recently, HC&S has forward priced over 70 percent of its 2010 crop at favorable levels.

While improved sugar prices and expected production levels have influenced near-term decisions by the Company, the future of the Company’s sugar operations will be highly dependent on critical rulings by the State of Hawaii Commission on Water Resource Management related to water allocations for both the West Maui and East Maui water systems. These rulings are expected by mid 2010.

The Company’s long-term focus is on the potential conversion of the sugar plantation to an energy farm. Recently, a minimum of $12 million dollars of federal support for new research on energy crop development and energy conversion technologies at HC&S was announced. This research will be conducted by HC&S, various government agencies (including the United States Department of Agriculture, Department of Energy, and Office of Naval Research), and the University of Hawaii’s College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources. It will complement HC&S’ efforts to create a viable energy business model, and is affirmation of the key role HC&S could play in achieving greater energy independence for Hawaii.

The Company utilizes two primary sources of periodic economic forecasts for the State of Hawaii: the University of Hawaii Economic Research Organization and the State’s Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism.

OTHER MATTERS

Dividends: The Company’s first quarter dividend of $0.315 per share to shareholders was paid on March 4, 2010 to shareholders of record on February 11, 2010. The second quarter dividend of $0.315 is payable on June 3, 2010 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 13, 2010.

Significant Accounting Policies: The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, upon which the Management’s Discussion and Analysis is based, requires that management exercise judgment when making estimates and assumptions about future events that may affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty and actual results will, inevitably, differ from those critical accounting estimates. These differences could be material. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of A&B’s financial statements were described in Item 7 of the Company’s 200 9 Form 10-K.

Officer and Management Changes: The following management changes were effective between January 1, 2010 and April 30, 2010.

On October 22, 2009, the Company announced the retirement of W. Allen Doane, chairman of the board and chief executive officer. Effective January 1, 2010, Stanley M. Kuriyama, A&B president, succeeded Mr. Doane as chief executive officer. Mr. Kuriyama was also named to serve on the A&B board of directors, effective January 1, 2010. Mr. Doane will continue to serve A&B as a director. Walter A. Dods, Jr., who had served as lead independent director since 2006, became chairman of the A&B board, also effective January 1, 2010.

Robert K. Sasaki, vice chairman of A&B Properties, Inc. retired effective January 1, 2010.

Kevin L. Halloran, vice president of corporate development and investor relations of A&B, resigned effective February 28, 2010.

Suzy P. Hollinger, was named director, investor relations of A&B, effective March 15, 2010.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Information concerning market risk is incorporated herein by reference to Item 7A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. There has been no material change in the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk since December 31, 2009.

[Address]

Dear __________:

Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (the "Company") and you have previously entered into a letter agreement dated _________ (the “Agreement”) and mutually desire to amend such agreement as follows:

1. Section 4(d) of the Agreement is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

“(d) (i) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, if any payments or benefits received or to be received by you in connection with a change in control of the Company (as defined in Section 2(b) hereof) or your termination of employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company, any “person” (as defined in Section 2(a) hereof) whose actions result in a change in control of the Company or any person affiliated with the Company or such person (all such payments and benefits, the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part), to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (the ̶ 0;Excise Tax”), then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of Section 280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, the cash severance payments shall first be reduced, and the noncash severance payments shall thereafter be reduced, to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which you would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). The Total Payments shall be reduced by the Company in its reasonable discretion in the following order: (A) reduction of any cash payment, excluding any cash payment with respect to the acceleration of equity awards, that is otherwise payable to the Executive that is exempt from Section 409A of the Code, (B) reduction of any other payments or benefits otherwise payable to the Executive on a pro-rata basis or such other manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code and (C) reduction of any payment with respect to the acceleration of equity awards that is otherwise payable to the Executive that is exempt from Section 409A of the Code provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, you may elect to have the non-cash Severance Payments reduced prior to any reduction of the cash Severance Payments.

(ii) For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which you shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of tax counsel ("Tax Counsel") reasonably acceptable to you and selected by the accounting firm (the "Auditor") which was, immediately prior to the Change in Control, the Company's independent auditor, does not constitute a “parachute payment” wit hin the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of Tax Counsel, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the Base Amount (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) allocable to such reasonable compensation, and (iii) the value of any non cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by the Auditor in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. For purposes of this Section 4(d), (1) you shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation in the calendar year in which the applicable Total Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the sta te and locality of your residence in the calendar year in which the applicable Total Payment is to made, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. and (2) except to the extent that you otherwise notify the Company, you shall be deemed to be subject to the loss of itemized deductions and personal exemptions to the maximum extent provided by the Code for each dollar of incremental income.

(iii) At the time that payments are made under this Agreement, the Company shall provide you with a written statement setting forth the manner in which such payments were calculated and the basis for such calculations including, without limitation, any opinions or other advice the Company has received from Tax Counsel, the Auditor or other advisors or consultants (and any such opinions or advice which are in writing shall be attached to the statement). If you object to the Company's calculations, the Company shall pay you such portion of the Severance Payments (up to 100% thereof) as you determine is necessary to result in the proper application of this Section 5(d).”

2. Section 4(e) of the Agreement is amended by adding the following new sentence at the end thereof:

“If the Severance Payments shall be decreased pursuant to Section 5(d) hereof, and the Section 5(e) benefits which remain payable after the application of Section 5(d) hereof are thereafter reduced pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall, no later than five (5) business days following such reduction, pay to you the least of (a) the amount of the decrease made in the Severance Payments pursuant to Section 5(d) hereof, (b) the amount of the subsequent reduction in these Section 5(e) benefits, or (c) the maximum amount which can be paid to you without being, or causing any other payment to be, nondeductible by reason of section 280G of the Code.”

If this letter correctly sets forth our agreement on the subject matter hereof, kindly sign and return to the Company the enclosed copy of this letter which will then constitute our agreement on this subject, upon execution by the Company.

ALEXANDER & BALDWIN, INC.

2007 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 28, 2010

ARTICLE ONE

GENERAL PROVISIONS

I.	PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

This 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended and restated, is intended to promote the interests of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc., a Hawaii corporation, by providing eligible persons in the Corporation’s service with the opportunity to participate in one or more cash or equity incentive compensation programs designed to encourage them to continue their service relationship with the Corporation.

Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the attached Appendix.

II.	STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN

A. The Plan shall be divided into a series of separate incentive compensation programs:

- the Discretionary Grant Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock or stock appreciation rights tied to the value of such Common Stock,

- the Stock Issuance Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be issued shares of Common Stock pursuant to restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance shares or other stock-based awards which vest upon the completion of a designated service period or the attainment of pre-established performance milestones, or such shares of Common Stock may be issued through direct purchase or as a bonus for services rendered the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary),

- the Incentive Bonus Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be provided with incentive bonus opportunities through performance unit awards and special cash incentive programs tied to the attainment of pre-established performance milestones, and

- the Automatic Grant Program under which eligible non-employee Board members will automatically receive equity awards at designated intervals over their period of continued Board service.

B. The provisions of Articles One and Six shall apply to all incentive compensation programs under the Plan and shall govern the interests of all persons under the Plan.

III.	ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

A. The Compensation Committee (either acting directly or through a subcommittee of two or more members of the Compensation Committee) shall have sole and exclusive authority to administer the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs with respect to Section 16 Insiders. Administration of the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs with respect to all other persons eligible to participate in those programs may, at the Board’s discretion, be vested in the Compensation Committee or a Secondary Board Committee, or the Board may retain the power to administer those programs with respect to all such persons. However, all Awards to non-employee Board members (other than pursuant to the Automatic Grant Program) shall be made by the Compensation Committee (or subcommittee thereof) which shall at the time of any such Award be comprised solely of independent directors, as determined in accordance with the governance standards established by the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is at the time primarily traded (the “Independent Directors”). In addition, any Awards for members of the Compensation Committee (other than pursuant to the Automatic Grant Program) must be authorized by a disinterested majority of the Independent Directors.

B. Members of the Compensation Committee or any Secondary Board Committee shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may be removed by the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time terminate the functions of any Secondary Board Committee and reassume all powers and authority previously delegated to such committee.

C. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority (subject to the provisions of the Plan) to establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for proper administration of the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs and to make such determinations under, and issue such interpretations of, the provisions of those programs and any outstanding Awards thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable. Decisions of the Plan Administrator within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Ince ntive Bonus Programs under its jurisdiction or any Award thereunder.

D. Service as a Plan Administrator by the members of the Compensation Committee or the Secondary Board Committee shall constitute service as Board members, and the members of each such committee shall accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and reimbursement as Board members for their service on such committee. No member of the Compensation Committee or the Secondary Board Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award thereunder.

E. Administration of the Automatic Grant Program shall be self-executing in accordance with the terms of that program, and no Plan Administrator shall exercise any discretionary functions with respect to any Awards made under that program, except that the Compensation Committee (or subcommittee thereof) shall have the express authority to establish from time to time the applicable dollar amount to be used to determine the specific number of shares of Common Stock for which the initial and annual Awards are to be made to the non-employee Board members in accordance with the dollar value formula set forth in Article Five.

IV.	ELIGIBILITY

A. The persons eligible to participate in the Plan are as follows:

(i) Employees,

(ii) non-employee members of the Board or the board of directors of any Parent or Subsidiary, and

(iii) consultants and other independent advisors who provide services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).

B. The Plan Administrator shall have full authority to determine, (i) with respect to Awards made under the Discretionary Grant Program, which eligible persons are to receive such Awards, the time or times when those Awards are to be made, the number of shares to be covered by each such Award, the time or times when the Award is to become exercisable, the vesting schedule (if any) applicable to the Award, the maximum term for which such Award is to remain outstanding and the status of a granted option as either an Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option; (ii) with respect to Awards under the Stock Issuance Program, which eligible persons are to receive such Awards, the time or times when the Awards are to be made, the number of sh ares subject to each such Award, the vesting and issuance schedules applicable to the shares which are the subject of such Award, the cash consideration (if any) payable for those shares and the form (cash or shares of Common Stock) in which the Award is to be settled; and (iii) with respect to Awards under the Incentive Bonus Program, which eligible persons are to receive such Awards, the time or times when the Awards are to be made, the performance objectives for each such Award, the amounts payable at designated levels of attained performance, any applicable service vesting requirements, the payout schedule for each such Award and the form (cash or shares of Common Stock) in which the Award is to be settled.

C. The Plan Administrator shall have the absolute discretion to grant options or stock appreciation rights in accordance with the Discretionary Grant Program, to effect stock issuances and other stock-based awards in accordance with the Stock Issuance Program and to grant incentive bonus awards in accordance with the Incentive Bonus Program.

D. The individuals who shall be eligible to participate in the Automatic Grant Program shall be limited to (i) those individuals who first become non-employee Board members on or after the Plan Effective Date, whether through appointment by the Board or election by the Corporation’s stockholders, and (ii) those individuals who continue to serve as non-employee Board members on or after the Plan Effective Date. A non-employee Board member who has previously been in the employ of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) shall not be eligible to receive a grant un der the Automatic Grant Program at the time he or she first becomes a non-employee Board member, but shall be eligible to receive periodic grants under the Automatic Grant Program while he or she continues to serve as a non-employee Board member.

V.	STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

A. The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Corporation on the open market. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance over the term of the Plan shall be limited to Four Million Four Hundred Fifteen Thousand (4,415,000) shares. Such share reserve includes an increase of Two Million Two Hundred Thousand (2,200,0000) shares of Common Stock authorized by the Board on January 28, 2010, subject to stockholder approval at the 2010 Annual Meeting.

B. The Plan shall serve as the successor to the Predecessor Plans, and no further stock option grants or unvested share awards shall be made under the Predecessor Plans on or after the Plan Effective Date. However, all option grants and unvested share awards outstanding under the Predecessor Plans on the Plan Effective Date shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and no provision of this Plan shall be deemed to affect or otherwise modify the rights or obligations of the holders of those awards with respect to their acquisition of shares of Common Stock thereunder. To the extent any options outstanding under the Predecessor Plans on the Plan Effective Date expire or terminate unexe rcised or any unvested shares outstanding under the Predecessor Plans on the Plan Effective Date are forfeited or repurchased by the Corporation at the original issue price, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to those expired or terminated options at the time of expiration or termination and the number of such forfeited or repurchased shares shall be added to the share reserve under this Plan and shall accordingly be available for issuance hereunder, up to a maximum of an additional Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand (750,000) shares.

C. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options granted under Plan shall not exceed Four Million Four Hundred Fifteen Thousand (4,415,000) shares, subject to stockholder approval at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the Two Million Two Hundred Thousand (2,200,0000) share increase of Common Stock authorized by the Board on January 28, 2010. In the absence of such stockholder approval, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options granted under Plan shall be limited to Two Million Two Hundred Fifteen Thousand (2,215,000) shares of Common Stock.

D. Each person participating in the Plan shall be subject the following limitations:

for Awards denominated in terms of shares of Common Stock (whether payable in Common Stock, cash or a combination of both), the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which such Awards may be made to such person in any calendar year shall not exceed Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares of Common Stock in the aggregate, and

for Awards denominated in terms of cash dollars (whether payable in cash, Common Stock or a combination of both), the maximum dollar amount for which such Awards may be made to such person in any calendar year shall not exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000.00), with such limitation to be measured at the time the Award is made and not at the time the Award becomes payable.

E. Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding Awards made under the Plan shall be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent those Awards expire or terminate for any reason prior to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock subject to those Awards. Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently forfeited or repurchased by the Corporation, at a price per share not greater than the original issue price paid per share, pursuant to the Corporation’s repurchase rights under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall accordingly be available for subsequent reissuance. Should the exercise price of an option un der the Plan be paid with shares of Common Stock, then the authorized reserve of Common Stock under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares for which that option is exercised, and not by the net number of shares issued under the exercised stock option. Upon the exercise of any stock appreciation right under the Plan, the share reserve shall be reduced by the gross number of shares as to which such right is exercised, and not by the net number of shares actually issued by the Corporation upon such exercise. If shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Plan are withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the issuance, vesting or exercise of an Award or the issuance of Common Stock thereunder, then the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced on the basis of the gross number of shares issued, vested or exercised under such Award, calculated in each instance prior to any such s hare withholding.

F. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration, or should the value of outstanding shares of Company Stock be substantially reduced as a result of a spin-off transaction or an extraordinary dividend or distribution, or should there occur any merger, consolidation or other reorganization, then equitable adjustments shall be made by the Plan Administrator to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities by wh ich the share reserve under the Plan may increase by reason of the expiration or termination of unexercised options or the forfeiture or repurchase of shares under the Predecessor Plans, (iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options granted under the Plan, (iv) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be granted Common Stock-denominated Awards under the Plan per calendar year, (v) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise or base price per share in effect under each outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program, (vi) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Stock Issuance Program and the cash consideration (if any) payable per share, (vii) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Automatic Grant Program, (viii) the number and/or class of securities for which Awards may subsequently be made to new and continuing non-em ployee Board members under the Automatic Grant Program, (ix) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Incentive Bonus Program denominated in shares of Common Stock and (x) the number and/or class of securities subject to the Corporation’s outstanding repurchase rights under the Plan and the repurchase price payable per share. The adjustments shall be made in such manner as the Plan Administrator deems appropriate in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits under the Plan and the outstanding Awards thereunder, and such adjustments shall be final, binding and conclusive. In the event of a Change in Control, however, the adjustments (if any) shall be made solely in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan governing Change in Control transactions.

G. Outstanding Awards granted pursuant to the Plan shall in no way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

(iv) to the extent the option is exercised for vested shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall concurrently provide instructions to (a) a brokerage firm (reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation for purposes of administering such procedure in compliance with the Corporation’s pre-clearance/pre-notification policies) to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) the Cor poration to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm on such settlement date in order to complete the sale.

Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on the Exercise Date.

B. Exercise and Term of Options.

1. Each option shall be exercisable at such time or times, during such period and for such number of shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing the option. However, no option shall have a term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the option grant date.

2. The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program so that those Awards shall vest and become exercisable only after the achievement of pre-established corporate performance objectives based on one or more Performance Goals and measured over the performance period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of the Award

3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following limitations shall apply with respect to the vesting schedules established for the Awards made under the Discretionary Grant Program, subject to the acceleration provisions in Paragraph C.2 below and Section IV of this Article Two:

(i) for any such Award which is to vest on the basis of Service, the minimum vesting period shall be three (3) years, with the rate of vesting over that period to be determined by the Plan Administrator; and

(ii) for any such Award which is to vest on the basis of performance objectives, the performance period shall have a duration of at least one year.

C. Effect of Termination of Service.

1. The following provisions shall govern the exercise of any options granted pursuant to the Discretionary Grant Program that are outstanding at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service or death:

(i) Any option outstanding at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service for any reason shall remain exercisable for such period of time thereafter as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing the option, but no such option shall be exercisable after the expiration of the option term.

(ii) Any option held by the Optionee at the time of the Optionee’s death and exercisable in whole or in part at that time may be subsequently exercised by the personal representative of the Optionee’s estate or by the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee’s will or the laws of inheritance or by the Optionee’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries of that option.

(iii) Should the Optionee’s Service be terminated for Cause or should the Optionee otherwise engage in conduct constituting grounds for a termination for Cause while holding one or more outstanding options granted under this Article Two, then all of those options shall terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.

(iv) During the applicable post-Service exercise period, the option may not be exercised for more than the number of vested shares for which the option is at the time exercisable; provided, however, that one or more options under the Discretionary Grant Program may be structured so that those options continue to vest in whole or part during the applicable post-Service exercise period. Upon the expiration of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any shares for which the option has not been exercised.

2. The Plan Administrator shall have complete discretion, exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time while the option remains outstanding, to:

(i) extend the period of time for which the option is to remain exercisable following the Optionee’s cessation of Service from the limited exercise period otherwise in effect for that option to such greater period of time as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no event beyond the expiration of the option term,

(ii) include an automatic extension provision whereby the specified post-Service exercise period in effect for any option granted under this Article Two shall automatically be extended by an additional period of time equal in duration to any interval within the specified post-Service exercise period during which the exercise of that option or the immediate sale of the shares acquired under such option could not be effected in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, but in no event shall such an extension result in the continuation of such option beyond the expiration date of the term of that option, and/or

(iii) permit the option to be exercised, during the applicable post-Service exercise period, not only with respect to the number of vested shares of Common Stock for which such option is exercisable at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service but also with respect to one or more additional installments in which the Optionee would have vested had the Optionee continued in Service.

D. Stockholder Rights. The holder of an option shall have no stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares.

E. Repurchase Rights. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of Common Stock. Should the Optionee cease Service while such shares are unvested, the Corporation shall have the right to repurchase any or all of those unvested shares at a price per share equal to the lower of (i) the exercise price paid per share or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock at the time of repurchase. The terms upon which such repurchase righ t shall be exercisable (including the period and procedure for exercise and the appropriate vesting schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such repurchase right.

F. Transferability of Options. The transferability of options granted under the Plan shall be governed by the following provisions:

(i) Incentive Options: During the lifetime of the Optionee, Incentive Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall not be assignable or transferable other than by will or the laws of inheritance following the Optionee’s death.

(ii) Non-Statutory Options. Non-Statutory Options shall be subject to the same limitation on transfer as Incentive Options, except that the Plan Administrator may structure one or more Non-Statutory Options so that the option may be assigned in whole or in part during the Optionee’s lifetime to one or more Family Members of the Optionee or to a trust established exclusively for the Optionee and/or such Family Members, to the extent such assignment is in connection with the Optionee’s estate plan or pursuant to a domestic relations order. The assigned portion may only be exercised by the person or persons w ho acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant to the assignment. The terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as those in effect for the option immediately prior to such assignment and shall be set forth in such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate.

(iii) Beneficiary Designations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionee may designate one or more persons as the beneficiary or beneficiaries of his or her outstanding options under this Article Two (whether Incentive Options or Non-Statutory Options), and those options shall, in accordance with such designation, automatically be transferred to such beneficiary or beneficiaries upon the Optionee’s death while holding those options. Such beneficiary or beneficiaries shall take the transferred options subject to all the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement evidencing each such transferred option, i ncluding (without limitation) the limited time period during which the option may be exercised following the Optionee’s death.

II.	INCENTIVE OPTIONS

The terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive Options. Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the provisions of Articles One, Two and Six shall be applicable to Incentive Options. Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options when issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this Section II.

A. Eligibility. Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees.

B. Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) for which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may for the first time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one calendar year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

To the extent the Employee holds two (2) or more such options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, then for purposes of the foregoing limitations on the exercisability of those options as Incentive Options, such options shall be deemed to become first exercisable in that calendar year on the basis of the chronological order in which they were granted, except to the extent otherwise provided under applicable law or regulation.

C. 10% Stockholder. If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the exercise price per share shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term shall not exceed five (5) years measured from the option grant date.

III.	STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

A. Authority. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority, exercisable in its sole discretion, to grant stock appreciation rights in accordance with this Section III to selected Optionees or other individuals eligible to receive option grants under the Discretionary Grant Program.

B. Types. Two types of stock appreciation rights shall be authorized for issuance under this Section III: (i) tandem stock appreciation rights (“Tandem Rights”) and (ii) stand-alone stock appreciation rights (“Stand-alone Rights”).

C. Tandem Rights. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and exercise of Tandem Rights.

1. One or more Optionees may be granted a Tandem Right, exercisable upon such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may establish, to elect between the exercise of the underlying option for shares of Common Stock or the surrender of that option in exchange for a distribution from the Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value (on the option surrender date) of the number of shares in which the Optionee is at the time vested under the surrendered option (or surrendered portion thereof) over (ii) the aggregate exercise price payable for such vested shares.

2. Any distribution to which the Optionee becomes entitled upon the exercise of a Tandem Right may be made in (i) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the option surrender date, (ii) cash or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the applicable Award agreement.

D. Stand-Alone Rights. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and exercise of Stand-alone Rights:

1. One or more individuals eligible to participate in the Discretionary Grant Program may be granted a Stand-alone Right not tied to any underlying option under this Discretionary Grant Program. The Stand-alone Right shall relate to a specified number of shares of Common Stock and shall be exercisable upon such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may establish. In no event, however, may the Stand-alone Right have a maximum term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the grant date. The provisions and limitations of Paragraphs B.2 and B.3 of Section I of this Article Two shall also be applicable to any Stand-Alone Right awarded under the Plan.

2. Upon exercise of the Stand-alone Right, the holder shall be entitled to receive a distribution from the Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the exercise date) of the shares of Common Stock underlying the exercised right over (ii) the aggregate base price in effect for those shares.

3. The number of shares of Common Stock underlying each Stand-alone Right and the base price in effect for those shares shall be determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion at the time the Stand-alone Right is granted. In no event, however, may the base price per share be less than the Fair Market Value per underlying share of Common Stock on the grant date.

4. Stand-alone Rights shall be subject to the same transferability restrictions applicable to Non-Statutory Options and may not be transferred during the holder’s lifetime, except if such assignment is in connection with the holder’s estate plan and is to one or more Family Members of the holder or to a trust established for the holder and/or one or more such Family Members or pursuant to a domestic relations order covering the Stand-alone Right as marital property. In addition, one or more beneficiaries may be designated for an outstanding Stand-alone Right in accordance with substantially the same terms and provisions as set forth in Section I.F of this Article Two.

5. The distribution with respect to an exercised Stand-alone Right may be made in (i) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date, (ii) cash or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the applicable Award agreement.

6. The holder of a Stand-alone Right shall have no stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the Stand-alone Right unless and until such person shall have exercised the Stand-alone Right and become a holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of such Stand-alone Right.

E. Post-Service Exercise. The provisions governing the exercise of Tandem and Stand-alone Rights following the cessation of the recipient’s Service shall be substantially the same as those set forth in Section I.C.1 of this Article Two for the options granted under the Discretionary Grant Program, and the Plan Administrator’s discretionary authority under Section I.C.2 of this Article Two shall also extend to any outstanding Tandem or Stand-alone Appreciation Rights.

IV.	CHANGE IN CONTROL

A. In the event of an actual Change in Control transaction, each outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program shall automatically accelerate so that each such Award shall, immediately prior to the effective date of that Change in Control, become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to such Award and may be exercised as to any or all of those shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock. However, an outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program shall not become exercisable on such an accelerated basis if and to the extent: (i) such Award is to be assumed by the successor corporation (or parent th ereof) or is otherwise to continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) such Award is to be replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing at the time of the Change in Control on any shares as to which the Award is not otherwise at that time exercisable and provides for subsequent vesting and payout of that spread in accordance with the same exercise/vesting schedule in effect for that Award or (iii) the acceleration of such Award is subject to other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Award outstanding under the Discretionary Grant Program on the date of such Change in Control shall be subject to cancellation and termination, without cash payment or other consideration due the Award holder, if the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date of such Change in Control (or any earlier date specified in the definitive agreement for t he Change in Control transaction) is less than the per share exercise or base price in effect for such Award.

B. All outstanding repurchase rights under the Discretionary Grant Program shall automatically terminate, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights shall immediately vest in full, immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, except to the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are to be assigned to the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise to continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator.

C. Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, all outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.

D. Each Award which is assumed in connection with a Change in Control or otherwise continued in effect shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities into which the shares of Common Stock subject to that Award would have been converted in consummation of such Change in Control had those shares actually been outstanding at that time. Appropriate adjustments to reflect such Change in Control shall also be made to (i) the exercise or base price per share in effect under each outstanding Award, provided the aggregate exercise or base price in effect for such securities shall rem ain the same, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities available for issuance over the remaining term of the Plan (iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities by which the share reserve under the Plan may increase by reason of the expiration or termination of unexercised options or the forfeiture or repurchase of shares under the Predecessor Plan, (iv) the maximum number and/or class of securities that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options granted under the Plan, (v) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be granted Common Stock-denominated Awards under the Plan per calendar year, (vi) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise or base price per share in effect under each outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program, (vii) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Stock Issuance Program and the cash consideration (if any) payable per share, (viii) the number and/or class of securities sub ject to each outstanding Award under the Incentive Bonus Program denominated in shares of Common Stock, (ix) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Automatic Grant Program, (x) the number and/or class of securities for which Awards may subsequently be made to new and continuing non-employee Board members under the Automatic Grant Program and (xi) the number and/or class of securities subject to the Corporation’s outstanding repurchase rights under the Plan and the repurchase price payable per share. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of the outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program, substitute, for the securities underlying those assumed rights, one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control transaction, provided such common stock is readily traded on an established U.S. securities exchange or market.

E. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program so that those Awards shall, immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to those Awards and may be exercised as to any or all of those shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock, whether or not those Awards are to be assumed in the Change in Control transaction or otherwise continued in effect. In addition, the Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more of the Corporation’s repurchase rights under the Discretionary G rant Program so that those rights shall terminate immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, and the shares subject to those terminated rights shall thereupon vest in full.

F. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to structure one or more outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program so that those Awards shall become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to those Awards in the event the Optionee’s Service is subsequently terminated by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date of any Change in Control transaction in which those Awards do not otherwise fully accelerate. In addition, the Plan Administrator may structure one or more of the Corporation’s repurchase rights so that those rights shall immediately terminate with respect to any shares held by the Optionee at the time of such Involuntary Termination, and the shares subject to those terminated repurchase rights shall accordingly vest in full at that time.

G. The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection with a Change in Control shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Option only to the extent the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation is not exceeded. To the extent such dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall be exercisable as a Non-statutory Option under the Federal tax laws.

V.	PROHIBITION ON REPRICING PROGRAMS

The Plan Administrator shall not (i) implement any cancellation/regrant program pursuant to which outstanding options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan are cancelled and new options or stock appreciation rights are granted in replacement with a lower exercise price per share, (ii) cancel outstanding options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan with exercise or base prices per share in excess of the then current Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock for consideration payable in cash, equity securities of the Corporation or in the form of any other Award under the Plan, except in connection with a Change in Control transaction, or (iii) otherwise directly reduce the exercise price in effect for outstanding options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan, without in each such instance obtaining stockholder approval.

ARTICLE THREE

STOCK ISSUANCE PROGRAM

I.	STOCK ISSUANCE TERMS

Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program, either as vested or unvested shares, through direct and immediate issuances. Each such stock issuance shall be evidenced by a Stock Issuance Agreement which complies with the terms specified below. Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to performance shares or restricted stock units which entitle the recipients to receive the shares underlying those Awards upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a designated time period following the vesting of those Awards.

A. Issue Price.

1. The issue price per share shall be fixed by the Plan Administrator, but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Award date.

2. Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program for any of the following items of consideration which the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate in each individual instance:

(i) cash or check made payable to the Corporation,

(ii) past services rendered to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary); or

(iii) any other valid consideration under the State in which the Corporation is at the time incorporated.

B. Vesting Provisions.

1. Shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program may, in the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be fully and immediately vested upon issuance as a bonus for Service rendered or may vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s period of Service or upon the attainment of specified performance objectives. The elements of the vesting schedule applicable to any unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and incorporated into the Stock Issuance Agreement. Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to performance shares or restricted stock units which entitle the reci pients to receive the shares underlying those Awards upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a designated time period following the vesting of those Awards, including (without limitation) a deferred distribution date following the termination of the Participant’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following limitations shall apply with respect to the vesting schedules established for the Awards made under the Stock Issuance Program, subject to the acceleration provisions in Paragraphs B.6 and B.7 below and Section II of this Article Three:

(ii) for any such Award which is to vest on the basis of performance objectives, the performance period shall have a duration of at least one year.

The foregoing minimum vesting requirements shall not be applicable to any Awards made under the Stock Issuance Program to an individual who is at the time of such Award serving solely in the capacity of a non-employee Board member; provided, however, that any Award made under the Stock Issuance Program to such non-employee Board member must have a minimum vesting period of at least one year, with not greater than monthly pro-rated vesting over that period.

2. The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more Awards under the Stock Issuance Program so that the shares of Common Stock subject to those Awards shall vest (or vest and become issuable) upon the achievement of pre-established corporate performance objectives based on one or more Performance Goals and measured over the performance period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of the Award.

3. Any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which the Participant may have the right to receive with respect to the Participant’s unvested shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction, extraordinary dividend or distribution or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration shall be issued subject to (i) the same vesting requirements applicable to the Participant’s unvested shares of Common Stock and (ii) such escrow arrangements as the Plan Administrato r shall deem appropriate. Equitable adjustments to reflect each such transaction shall also be made by the Plan Administrator to the repurchase price payable per share by the Corporation for any unvested securities subject to its existing repurchase rights under the Plan; provided the aggregate repurchase price shall in each instance remain the same.

4. The Participant shall have full stockholder rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant under the Stock Issuance Program, whether or not the Participant’s interest in those shares is vested. Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right to vote such shares and to receive any dividends paid on such shares, subject to any applicable vesting requirements, including (without limitation) the requirement that any dividends paid on shares subject to performance-vesting conditions shall be held in escrow by the Corporation and shall not vest or actually be paid to the Award holder prior to the time those shares vest. The Participant shall not have any stockholder rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to a performance share or restricted stock unit Award until that Award vests and the shares of Common Stock are actually issued thereunder. However, dividend-equivalent units may be paid or credited, either in cash or in actual or phantom shares of Common Stock, on outstanding performance share or restricted stock unit Awards, subject to such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate; provided, however, that no such dividend-equivalent units relating to Awards subject to performance-vesting conditions shall vest or otherwise become payable prior to the time the underlying Award (or portion thereof to which such dividend-equivalents units relate) vests upon the attainment of the applicable performance goals and shall accordingly be subject to cancellation and forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying Award.

5. Should the Participant cease to remain in Service while holding one or more unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program or should the performance objectives not be attained with respect to one or more such unvested shares of Common Stock, then those shares shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation for cancellation, and the Participant shall have no further stockholder rights with respect to those shares. To the extent the surrendered shares were previously issued to the Participant for consideration paid in cash or cash equivalent, the Corporation shall repay to the Participant the lower of (i) the cash con sideration paid for the surrendered shares or (ii) the Fair Market Value of those shares at the time of cancellation.

6. The Plan Administrator may in its discretion waive the surrender and cancellation of one or more unvested shares of Common Stock which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant’s Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those shares, but only to the extent such waiver is effected in connection with (i) the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death, Permanent Disability, Retirement or Involuntary Termination or (ii) the consummation of a Change in Control transaction. Any such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant’s interest in the shares of Common Stock as to which the waiver applies. However, no vesting requireme nts tied to the attainment of performance objectives may be waived with respect to shares which were intended at the time of issuance to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Three.

7. Outstanding performance shares or restricted stock units under the Stock Issuance Program shall automatically terminate, and no shares of Common Stock shall actually be issued in satisfaction of those Awards, if the performance goals or Service requirements established for those Awards are not attained or satisfied. The Plan Administrator, however, shall have the discretionary authority to issue vested shares of Common Stock under one or more outstanding Awards of performance shares or restricted stock units as to which the designated performance goals or Service requirements have not been attained or satisfied, but only in connection with (i) the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death, Permanent D isability, Retirement or Involuntary Termination or (ii) the consummation of a Change in Control transaction. However, no vesting requirements tied to the attainment of performance goals may be waived with respect to Awards which were intended, at the time those Awards were made, to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Three.

8. The following additional requirements shall be in effect for any performance shares awarded under this Article Three:

(i) At the end of the performance period, the Plan Administrator shall determine the actual level of attainment for each performance objective and the extent to which the performance shares awarded for that period are to vest and become payable based on the attained performance levels.

(ii) The performance shares which so vest shall be paid as soon as practicable following the end of the performance period, unless such payment is to be deferred for the period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time the performance shares are awarded or the period selected by the Participant in accordance with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A.

(iii) Performance shares may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock or (iii) any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion.

(iv) Performance shares may also be structured so that the shares are convertible into shares of Common Stock, but the rate at which each performance share is to so convert shall be based on the attained level of performance for each applicable performance objective.

II.	CHANGE IN CONTROL

A. Each Award outstanding under the Stock Issuance Program on the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction may be (i) assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the time of the Change in Control and provides for the subsequent vesting and payment of that value in accordance with the same vesting schedule in effect for those shares at the time of such Change in Control. To the extent any such Award is subject to performance vesting u pon the attainment of one or more specified performance goals, then upon the assumption, continuation or replacement of that Award, the performance vesting condition shall automatically be cancelled, and such Award shall thereupon be converted into a Service-vesting Award that will vest upon the completion of a Service period co-terminous with the portion of the performance period remaining at the time of the Change in Control. However, to the extent any Award outstanding under the Stock Issuance Program on the effective date of such Change in Control Transaction is not to be so assumed, continued or replaced, that Award shall vest in full immediately prior to the effective date of the actual Change in Control transaction, and the shares of Common Stock underlying the portion of the Award that vests on such accelerated basis shall be issued in accordance wi th the applicable Award Agreement, unless such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed in the Stock Issuance Agreement.

B. Each outstanding Award under the Stock Issuance Program which is assumed in connection with a Change in Control or otherwise continued in effect shall be adjusted immediately after the consummation of that Change in Control so as to apply to the number and class of securities into which the shares of Common Stock subject to that Award immediately prior to the Change in Control would have been converted in consummation of such Change in Control had those shares actually been outstanding at that time, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the cash consideration (if any) payable per share thereunder, provided the aggregate amount of such consideration shall rem ain the same. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of the outstanding Awards, substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control transaction, provided such common stock is readily traded on an established U.S. securities exchange or market.

C. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more unvested Awards under the Stock Issuance Program so that the shares of Common Stock subject to those Awards shall automatically vest (or vest and become issuable) in whole or in part immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction or upon the subsequent termination of the Participant’s Service by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date of that Change in Control transaction. The Plan Administrator’s authority under this Section II.C shall also extend to any Awards intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), even though the automatic vesting of those Awards pursuant to this Section II.C may result in their loss of performance-based status under Code Section 162(m).

(iii) dividend equivalent rights (“DER Awards”)

A. Cash Awards. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority under the Plan to make Cash Awards which are to vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s continued Service with the Corporation or upon the attainment of specified performance goals. Each such Cash Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.

1. The elements of the vesting schedule applicable to each Cash Award shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and incorporated into the Incentive Bonus Award Agreement.

2. The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more Cash Awards so that those Awards shall vest upon the achievement of pre-established corporate performance objectives based upon one or more Performance Goals.

3. Should the Participant cease to remain in Service while holding one or more unvested Cash Awards or should the performance objectives not be attained with respect to one or more such Cash Awards, then those Awards shall be immediately terminate, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any cash payment or other consideration with respect to those terminated Awards.

4. Outstanding Cash Awards shall automatically terminate, and no cash payment or other consideration shall be due the holders of those Awards, if the performance goals or Service requirements established for the Awards are not attained or satisfied. The Plan Administrator may in its discretion waive the cancellation and termination of one or more unvested Cash Awards which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant’s Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those Awards. Any such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant’s interest in the Cash Award as to which the waiver applies. Such wavier may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant’s cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable performance objectives. However, no vesting requirements tied to the attainment of performance goals may be waived with respect to awards which were intended, at the time those awards were granted, to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Four.

5. Cash Awards which become due and payable following the attainment of the applicable performance goals or satisfaction of the applicable Service requirement (or the waiver of such goals or Service requirement) may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the payment date or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock as the Plan Administrator shall determine.

B. Performance Unit Awards. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to make Performance Unit Awards in accordance with the terms of this Article Four. Each such Performance Unit Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.

1. A Performance Unit shall represent a participating interest in a special bonus pool tied to the attainment of pre-established corporate performance objectives based on one or more Performance Goals. The amount of the bonus pool may vary with the level at which the applicable performance objectives are attained, and the value of each Performance Unit which becomes due and payable upon the attained level of performance shall be determined by dividing the amount of the resulting bonus pool (if any) by the total number of Performance Units issued and outstanding at the completion of the applicable performance period.

2. Performance Units may also be structured to include a Service requirement which the Participant must satisfy following the completion of the performance period in order to vest in the Performance Units awarded with respect to that performance period.

3. Performance Units which become due and payable following the attainment of the applicable performance objectives and the satisfaction of any applicable Service requirement may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the payment date or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock as the Plan Administrator shall determine.

C. DER Awards. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to make DER Awards in accordance with the terms of this Article Four. Each such DER Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.

1. The DER Awards may be made as stand-alone awards or in tandem with other Awards made under the Plan. The term of each such DER Award shall be established by the Plan Administrator at the time of grant, but no DER Award shall have a term in excess of ten (10) years.

2. Each DER shall represent the right to receive the economic equivalent of each dividend or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than shares of Common Stock), which is made per issued and outstanding share of Common Stock during the term the DER remains outstanding. A special account on the books of the Corporation shall be maintained for each Participant to whom a DER Award is made, and that account shall be credited per DER with each such dividend or distribution made per issued and outstanding share of Common Stock during the term of that DER remains outstanding.

3. Payment of the amounts credited to such book account may be made to the Participant either concurrently with the actual dividend or distribution made per issued and outstanding share of Common Stock or may be deferred for a period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time the DER Award is made or selected by the Participant in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A. In no event, however, shall any DER Award made with respect to an Award subject to performance-vesting conditions under the Stock Issuance or Incentive Bonus Program vest or become payable prior to the vesting of that Award (or the portion thereof to which the DER Award relates) upon the attainment of the applicable performance goals an d shall accordingly be subject to cancellation and forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying Award.

4. Payment may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock as the Plan Administrator shall determine If payment is to be made in the form of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock into which the cash dividend or distribution amounts are to be converted for purposes of the Participant’s book account may be based on the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date of conversion, a prior date or an average of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock over a designated period, as the Plan Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion.

5. The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more DER Awards so that those Awards shall vest only after the achievement of pre-established corporate performance objectives based upon one or more Performance Goals.

II.	CHANGE IN CONTROL

A. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more Awards under the Incentive Bonus Program so that those Awards shall automatically vest in whole or in part immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction or upon the subsequent termination of the Participant’s Service by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date of such Change in Control. To the extent any such Award is, at the time of such Change in Control, subject to performance vesting upon the attainment of one or more specified performance goals, then the performance vesting condition shall automatically be cancelled on the effective date of such C hange in Control, and such Award shall thereupon be converted into a Service-vesting Award that will vest upon the completion of a Service period co-terminous with the portion of the performance period remaining at the time of the Change in Control.

B. The Plan Administrator’s authority under Section II.A shall also extend to any performance bonus awards intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), even though the automatic vesting of those awards pursuant to such Paragraph A may result in their loss of performance-based status under Code Section 162(m).

The Applicable Dollar Amount shall be determined by the Plan Administrator at the time of each s uch grant, but in no event shall such amount exceed Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) per non-employee Board member.

2. On the date of each annual stockholders meeting, beginning with the 2007 Annual Meeting, each individual who is to continue to serve as a non-employee Board member, whether or not that individual is standing for re-election to the Board at that particular annual meeting, shall automatically be granted an Award in the form of restricted stock units covering that number of shares of Common Stock (rounded up to the next whole share) determined by dividing the Applicable Annual Amount by the Fair Market Value per share on such date (the “Annual Grant”), provided that such individual has served as a non-employee Board member for a period of at least six (6) months. There shall be no limit on the number of such A nnual Grants any one continuing non-employee Board member may receive over his or her period of Board service, and non-employee Board members who have previously been in the employ of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) shall be eligible to receive one or more such Annual Grants over their period of continued Board service. The Applicable Annual Amount shall be determined by the Plan Administrator on or before the date of the annual stockholders meeting at which those Annual Grants are to be made, but in no event shall exceed Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00).

3. Each restricted unit awarded under this Article Five shall entitle the non-employee Board member to one share of Common Stock on the applicable issuance date following the vesting of that unit.

ARTICLE SIX

MISCELLANEOUS

I.	DEFERRED COMPENSATION

A. The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, structure one or more Awards under the Stock Issuance or Incentive Bonus Programs so that the Participants may be provided with an election to defer the compensation associated with those Awards for federal income tax purposes. Any such deferral opportunity shall comply with all applicable requirements of Code Section 409A.

B. The Plan Administrator may implement a non-employee Board member retainer fee deferral program under the Plan that allows the non-employee Board members the opportunity to elect, prior to the start of each calendar year, to convert the Board and Board committee retainer fees to be earned for that year into restricted stock units under the Stock Issuance Program that will defer the issuance of the shares of Common Stock that vest under those restricted stock units to a permissible date or event under Code Section 409A. If such program is implemented, the Plan Administrator shall have the authority to establish such rules and procedures as it deems appropriate for the filing of such deferral elections and the designation of the permissible distribution events under Code Section 409A.

C. To the extent the Corporation maintains one or more separate non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements which allow the participants the opportunity to make notional investments of their deferred account balances in shares of Common Stock, the Plan Administrator may authorize the share reserve under the Plan to serve as the source of any shares of Common Stock that become payable under those deferred compensation arrangements. In such event, the share reserve under the Plan shall be reduced on a share-for-one share basis for each share of Common Stock issued under the Plan in settlement of the deferred compensation owed under those separate arrangements.

D. To the extent there is any ambiguity as to whether any provision of any Award made under the Plan that is deemed to constitute a deferred compensation arrangement under Code Section 409A would otherwise contravene one or more requirements or limitations of such Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, such provision shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that complies with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

II.	TAX WITHHOLDING

A. The Corporation’s obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock upon the exercise, issuance or vesting of an Award under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable income and employment tax withholding requirements.

B. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, structure one or more Awards so that shares of Common Stock may be used as follows to satisfy all or part of the Withholding Taxes to which such holders of those Awards may become subject in connection with the issuance, exercise, vesting or settlement of those Awards:

1. Stock Withholding: The Corporation may be provided with the right to withhold, from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the issuance, exercise or vesting of such Award or the issuance of shares of Common Stock thereunder, a portion of those shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Withholding Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by such individual. The shares of Common Stock so withheld shall reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan.

2. Stock Delivery: The Award holder may be provided with the right to deliver to the Corporation, at the time of the issuance, exercise or vesting of such Award or the issuance of shares of Common Stock thereunder, one or more shares of Common Stock previously acquired by such individual (other than in connection with the exercise, share issuance or share vesting triggering the Withholding Taxes) with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Withholding Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the individual. The shares of Common Stock so delivered shall neither reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan nor be added to the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan.

III.	SHARE ESCROW/LEGENDS

Unvested shares may, in the Plan Administrator’s discretion, be held in escrow by the Corporation until the Participant’s interest in such shares vests or may be issued directly to the Participant with restrictive legends on the certificates evidencing those unvested shares.

IV.	EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN

A. The Plan shall become effective on the Plan Effective Date.

B. The Plan was amended on January 28. 2010 to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan by an additional Two Million Two Hundred Thousand (2,200,000) shares. However, such share increase is subject to stockholder approval at the 2010 Annual Meeting, and no Awards may be made under the Plan on the basis of that share increase unless and until such stockholder approval is obtained. Should such stockholder approval not be obtained at the 2010 Annual Meeting, then the authorized share increase shall not be implemented.

C. The Plan shall serve as the successor to each of the Predecessor Plans, and no further option grants or unvested share issuances shall be made under the Predecessor Plans. The implementation of the Plan shall not affect the option grants and unvested share awards that were outstanding under the Predecessor Plans at the time the Plan was approved by the stockholders at the 2007 Annual Meeting, and those option grants and unvested share awards shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. However, should any of those options expire or terminate unexercised or those unvested shares be forfeited or repurchased by the Corporation at the original issue price, the shares of Common Stock subject to those options at the time of expiration or termination and those forfeited or repurchased shares shall be added to the share reserve of this Plan, up to the maximum number of additional shares permissible hereunder.

D. The Plan shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) April 26, 2017, (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan shall have been issued as fully vested shares or (iii) the termination of all outstanding Awards in connection with a Change in Control. Should the Plan terminate on April 26, 2017, then all Awards outstanding at that time shall continue to have force and effect in accordance with the provisions of the documents evidencing those Awards.

V.	AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

A. The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects; provided, however, that stockholder approval shall be required for any amendment to the Plan which materially increases the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan (other than pursuant to Section V.F of Article One), materially increases the benefits accruing to Optionees or Participants, materially expands the class of individuals eligible to participate in the Plan, expands the types of awards which may be made under the Plan or extends the term of the Plan or to the extent such stockholder approval may other wise required under applicable law or regulation or pursuant to the listing standards of the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is at the time primarily traded. However, no such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect to Awards at the time outstanding under the Plan unless the Optionee or the Participant consents to such amendment or modification.

B. The Compensation Committee shall have the discretionary authority to adopt and implement from time to time such addenda or subplans to the Plan as it may deem necessary in order to bring the Plan into compliance with applicable laws and regulations of any foreign jurisdictions in which grants or awards are to be made under the Plan and/or to obtain favorable tax treatment in those foreign jurisdictions for the individuals to whom the grants or awards are made.

C. Except as otherwise provided in Section IV.B of this Article Six, Awards may be made under the Plan that involve shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided no shares shall actually be issued pursuant to those Awards until the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan is sufficiently increased by stockholder approval of an amendment of the Plan authorizing such increase. If such stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the date the first excess Award is made, then all Awards granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease to be outstanding.

VI.	USE OF PROCEEDS

Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.

VII.	REGULATORY APPROVALS

A. The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any Award under the Plan and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock in connection with the issuance, exercise or vesting of any Award under the Plan shall be subject to the Corporation’s procurement of all approvals and permits required by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the Awards made under the Plan and the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to those Awards.

B. No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with all applicable requirements of applicable securities laws, including the filing and effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement for the shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable listing requirements of any Stock Exchange on which Common Stock is then listed for trading.

VIII.

NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS

Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee or the Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining such person) or of the Optionee or the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate such person’s Service at any time for any reason, with or without cause.
