ENHANCED FAIRCHILD INCENTIVE
PLAN
(As Amended and Restated
Effective April 1, 2009)
|
1.
|
Objective
and Structure
|
The Enhanced Fairchild Incentive
Plan (the “Plan” or “Enhanced Plan”) is
designed to help retain eligible management employees and reward
them for contributing to the success and profitability of the
Company. These objectives are accomplished by making incentive
awards under the Plan and providing Participants with a proprietary
interest in the growth and performance of the Company.
The Plan is a non-ERISA cash bonus
plan providing enhanced cash awards payable on an annual basis to a
select group of eligible employees based on measures of business
performance for that award period. The Enhanced Plan also contains
a deferral feature that enables certain Participants to elect to
defer the payment of all or any portion of their award. The
Deferral Plan provides an opportunity for a limited number of
management employees to defer receipt of their awards under the
Plan until termination of their employment or other distributable
event. That deferral feature of the Enhanced Plan is primarily set
forth in Article 8 below, is an unfunded plan for a select group of
management or highly compensated employees, and hence is
substantially exempt from ERISA. The two plans set forth in this
document and amended hereafter also may be referred to respectively
by the acronym EFIP and DIP. The Deferral Plan is hereby frozen
effective as of December 27, 2004. It is intended that the
EFIP qualify as a plan of short-term deferrals and that the frozen
DIP be grandfathered so that neither Plan is subject to Code
Section 409A.
Whenever used in the Plan, unless
otherwise indicated, the following terms shall have the respective
meanings set forth below:
|
|
|
|
Award:
|
|
The amount, if
any, to be paid to a Plan Participant for a particular Measurement
Period.
|
|
|
|
Award Date:
|
|
The annual date
on which an EFIP Award is due to be paid. The Award Date shall be
the later of sixty (60) days after the end of the Company’s
fiscal year, or fifteen (15) days after consolidated financial
statements for the fiscal year are completed and accepted by the
Company, but not later than the fifteenth day of the third month
following the Company’s fiscal year.
|
|
|
|
Company:
|
|
Fairchild
Semiconductor Corporation (“FSC”) or any corporate

approval of FSC.

administration of the Plan, as provided in Article 9 below, but may

any time during the Measurement Period, not including any
non-regular employees. Members of a collective bargaining unit, if
any, shall be considered Employees for purposes of the Plan only if
they satisfy the eligibility conditions of the preceding sentence

participation in the Plan. Any regular employees in a class that is

eligible for the Company’s Sales Incentive Plan (or any
successor plan thereto); (ii) any newly acquired employees who

bonus plan or to any special or transitional incentive or bonus
plan assumed or adopted by the Company in connection with the
acquisition of such employees; and (iii) any other group of one or
more employees who the Committee determines either is covered by a
different bonus or incentive plan or arrangement (except for the

arrangement - shall not be considered Employees under this Plan for
any Measurement Period during which they fall within any such
