upon

|

Subsidiary
will withhold therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable
governmental withholding tax requirements related
thereto.
|
(g)
|
Nothing
contained in the Plan will be deemed in any way to limit or restrict
the
Company, its Subsidiaries, or the Committee from making any award
or
payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or understanding,
whether now existing or hereafter in
effect.
|
(a)
|
The
Committee shall have the power and complete discretion to determine

terms
and conditions applicable to Awards, and (vi) any additional requirements
relating to Awards that the Committee deems
appropriate.
|
(b)
|
The
Committee may adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the
Plan. The
interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by
the
Committee shall be final and conclusive. The Committee may consult
with
counsel, who may be counsel to the Company, and shall not incur
any
liability for any action taken in good faith in reliance upon the
advice
of counsel.
|
(c)
|
A
majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum,
and
all actions of the Committee shall be taken by a majority of the
members
present. Any action may be taken by a written instrument signed
by all of
the members, and any action so taken shall be fully effective as
if it had
been taken at a meeting.
|
(d)
|
All
members of the Committee must be “outside directors” as described in Code
Section 162(m).
|
(e)
|
The
Board from time to time may appoint members previously appointed
and may
fill vacancies however caused
in
the Committee.
|
(f)
|
As
to any Code Section 162(m) Awards, it is the intent of the Company
that
this Plan and any Code Section 162(m) Awards hereunder satisfy,
and be
interpreted in a manner that satisfy, the applicable requirements
of Code
Section 162(m). If any provision of this Plan or if any Code Section
162(m) Award would otherwise conflict with the intent expressed
in this
Section 5(f), that provision to the extent possible shall be interpreted
so as to avoid such conflict. To the extent of any remaining
irreconcilable conflict with such intent, such provision shall
be deemed
void as applicable to Covered Employees. Nothing herein shall be
interpreted to preclude a Participant who is or may be a Covered
Employee
from receiving an Award that is not a Code Section 162(m)
Award.
|
(g)
|
The
Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be
made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible
to
receive, Awards under the Plan, whether or not such persons are
similarly
situated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Committee
will be entitled, among other things, to make non uniform and selective
determinations and to establish non
uniform
and selective Performance Criteria, Performance Goals, the weightings
thereof, and Target Bonuses.
|
(a)
|
The
Plan shall be effective as of date the Company is separated from
Circuit
City Stores, Inc. and shall be submitted to the shareholders of
Circuit
City Stores, Inc. for approval prior to the separation. No Award
shall be
payable to a Covered Employee until the Plan has been approved
by the
shareholders.
|
(b)
|
As
of the date of separation between the Company and Circuit City
Stores,
Inc., this Plan shall assume obligations, including outstanding
awards for
the current Fiscal Year, from the Circuit City Stores, Inc. Annual
Performance Based Bonus Plan, to the extent provided in an agreement
between the Company and Circuit City Stores,
Inc.

The
SARs shall only be exercisable if a Change of Control occurs. In
such
event, the Options will be exercisable at any time during a period
of 90
days beginning on the date the Change of Control occurs. To the extent
that the SARs or their underlying Options are not exercised during
an
exercise period, the SARs will become unexercisable again until such
time
as another Change of Control occurs or %%EXPIRE_DATE_PERIOD1%-% ,
when
they expire.

When
the SARs become exercisable, you may exercise the SARs by giving
written
notice to the Company, signed by you, stating the number of SARs
that you
are exercising.
|
3. |
Upon
exercise of the SARs, you shall receive in exchange from the Company
an
amount equal to the excess of (x) the value of the Company’s common stock
on the date of exercise, over (y) the exercise price of the underlying
Option. For purposes of this paragraph, the value of the Company’s common
stock shall be the Fair Market Value of the Company’s common stock on the
date of exercise; provided, however, if the net after tax benefit
to you,
after considering all applicable taxes, interest and penalties, including
taxes, interest and penalties imposed under Code section 409A, would
be
greater if the value was determined based on the highest closing
price of
the Company’s common stock, on the exchange on which it is then traded,
during the 90 days immediately preceding the Change of Control, the
value
of the Company’s common stock shall be such higher amount. The
determination of the net after tax benefit to you shall be made by
the
Company in its reasonable
discretion.
|
4.
|
The
Company’s obligation arising upon exercise of the SARs shall be paid in
cash and shall be subject to required income tax withholdings.
|
5.
|
To
the extent a SAR is exercised, the underlying Option must be surrendered.
The underlying Option, to the extent surrendered, shall no longer
be
exercisable.
