1.1 | Establishment. |
Genworth Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors, the Company), established the 2004 Genworth Financial, Inc. Onmibus Incentive Plan (the Omnibus Plan), with effect from May 25, 2004.
The Committee has established this second Appendix to the Omnibus Plan, the UK HMRC Approved Company Share Option Plan (the UK CSOP), in accordance with Section 15.12(d). The UK CSOP shall be read as a continuation of the Omnibus Plan and, except as specifically provided in the Rules, all Articles and Sections are incorporated in the UK CSOP. For the avoidance of doubt, the first Appendix to the Omnibus Plan was the Genworth Financial Inc. UK Share Incentive Plan established by deed on 5 February 2007 (the UK SIP). The UK CSOP is a separate plan to the UK SIP.
The definitions of all defined terms are contained either in the UK CSOP or the Omnibus Plan
In respect of Stock Options granted under the UK CSOP, the UK CSOP shall prevail in the event of any conflict between the Omnibus Plan and the UK CSOP.
1.2 | Purpose of the Omnibus Plan |
The purpose of the UK CSOP is to obtain HMRC approved status under Schedule 4 for Stock Options granted under the UK CSOP.
The UK CSOP received formal HMRC approval, and became effective, on 14 January 2008. It shall remain in effect as provided by the Omnibus Plan.
1.3 | Awards |
Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 1.3, only Stock Options shall be granted under the UK CSOP. Accordingly, for the avoidance of doubt:-
(a) no Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock (including Performance Shares), Restricted Stock Units (including Performance Units), Other-Stock Based Awards, Nonemployee Director Awards (including Deferred Stock Units), Dividend Equivalent, and Cash-Based Awards shall be awarded under the UK CSOP; and
(b) Stock Options granted under the UK CSOP shall be nonqualified stock options for the purpose of the Code.
Where any Section refers to:-
(i) Stock Options together with other awards, for the purposes of the UK CSOP, such Section shall be read and construed (to the extent required) as if it only refers to Stock Options; and
(ii) the Omnibus Plan, for the purposes of the UK CSOP, such Section shall be read and construed as if it also refers to the UK CSOP.

(b) where the proposed adjustment is otherwise than as provided under Rule 4.4(a), and accordingly prior HMRC approval cannot be provided in respect of that adjustment, immediately upon the Committee resolving to make that adjustment, the Stock Option shall cease to be approved under Schedule 4 and the relevant provisions of the Omnibus Plan (including, without limitation, the withholding provisions) shall apply to the Stock Option. The Company shall as soon as practicable after that adjustment notify HMRC that the Stock Option is no longer approved under Schedule 4.

7
5.3 | Stock Option Term |
Section 5.3 shall apply to the UK CSOP, subject to the modification that the Committee shall not have any discretion to grant Stock Options that shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of the date of its grant.
5.4 | Time of Exercise |
Section 5.4 shall not apply to the UK CSOP. Instead, Stock Options shall be exercisable at such times and, pursuant to Rule 5.7, be subject to such conditions as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant.
Save as provided in Rules 5.6 and 13.3 (and unless the Committee determine otherwise at the Grant Date), a Participant may only exercise his Stock Option while he is a director or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates.
Notwithstanding any of the provisions of the Omnibus Plan or the UK CSOP, no Stock Option may be exercised by a Participant at any time when he is, or by the personal representatives of a Participant who at the date of his death was, prohibited from such exercise by virtue of the provisions of Paragraph 9 of Schedule 4.
5.5 | Method of Exercise |
Section 5.5 shall not apply to the UK CSOP. Instead, Stock Options granted under this Rule 5 shall be exercised by the delivery of a notice of exercise to the Company or an agent designated by the Company in a form specified or accepted by the Committee and approved by HMRC, or by complying with any alternative procedures which may be authorized by the Committee with the prior approval of HMRC, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment for the Shares.
The exercise of the Stock Option shall be conditional on full payment of the related exercise price and PAYE Liability. The exercise price of any Stock Option shall be payable to the Company either: (a) in cash; (b) by any other method approved or accepted by the Committee (and approved by HMRC), including, without limitation, if the Committee so determines, a cashless (broker-assisted) exercise; or (c) by any combination of the foregoing.
Subject to any governing rules or regulations, within 30 days of receipt of written notification of exercise and full payment (including satisfaction of any PAYE Liability), the Company shall deliver to the person exercising the Option evidence of book entry Shares, or upon such persons request, Share certificates in an appropriate amount based upon the number of Shares purchased under the Option(s). Any Shares allotted as a result of the exercise of the Stock Option shall rank pari passu in all respects with the issued Shares at that time.
Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, all cash payments (other than the PAYE Liability) under all of the methods indicated above shall be paid in United States Dollars.
5.6 | Termination of Employment |
The Committee shall have regard to the following provisions when determining the circumstances in which Stock Options may be exercised as a result of termination of employment by the Participant with the Company or any of its Affiliates:-
(a) | in the event of a Participants death, the Award Agreement may allow the exercise of the Stock Option on or after the date of death but no later than twelve (12) months after that date; |
(b) | subject to Rule 5.6(a), the Award Agreement may specify such termination events, and such period for the exercise of the Stock Options following such |
8
termination event, as the Committee shall at its discretion determine at the Grant Date, provided always that the Award Agreement shall not provide a general discretion to the Committee to allow the exercise of the Stock Option as a result of the termination of employment at the date of such termination; |
(c) | subject to Rule 5.6(a), where the Award Agreement specifies retirement, injury, disability and other termination events that would result in the exercise of the Stock Option (as well as the period after termination of employment in which the Stock Option must be exercised), it can also provide discretion to the Committee, which must be exercised fairly, reasonably and objectively, to allow the exercise of the Stock Options in favour of the Participant for reasons other than those specified in the Award Agreement; and |
(d) | If the Award Agreement does not specify any termination events that would result in the exercise of the Stock Option, it shall not provide a general discretion to the Committee to allow the exercise of the Stock Option as a result of the termination of employment at the date of such termination. |
For the purposes of Rule 5.6(b), the specified retirement age for the purposes of the UK CSOP shall be the age of 55 (or such other age as shall be specified in paragraph 35A of Schedule 4). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Rule 5.6 shall prevent the Committee and the Participant from agreeing a different retirement age whether as part of the Award Agreement or otherwise.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothwithstanding any provisions of the Plan, the UK CSOP or the Award Agreement to the contrary, where a Participant ceases employment with the Company and its Affiliates by reason of retirement, injury or disability, nothing in the Plan, the UK CSOP or the Award Agreement shall permit any right the Participant might have under the Award Agreement to exercise his Stock Option to be subject to any discretion by any person (including the Committee).
5.7 | Conditions attaching to the exercise of Stock Options |
The Committee may impose such condition or conditions on the exercise of Stock Options as it may deem advisable or desirable, provided that such conditions shall be objective and stated in writing in the Award Agreement at the Grant Date.
If, after the Committee has determined such conditions, events occur which cause the Committee to consider that any of the existing conditions have become unreasonable, unfair or impractical, it may, in its discretion, provided that such discretion is exercised fairly and reasonably amend, relax or waive such conditions provided that any conditions which are amended or relaxed shall be no more difficult to satisfy than when they were originally imposed or last amended or relaxed.

Where any New Options are granted pursuant to this Rule 13.3, they shall be regarded for the purposes of the subsequent application of the provisions of this UK CSOP as having been granted at the time when the corresponding Old Options were granted and, with effect from the date on which the New Options are granted:
