This excerpt taken from the GPS 10-Q filed Dec 1, 2006. Stock Award Plans The 1996 Stock Option and Award Plan (the 1996 Plan) was established on March 26, 1996, and amended and restated on January 28, 2003. The Board authorized 123 million shares for issuance under the 1996 Plan, which includes shares available under the Management Incentive Restricted Stock Plan and an earlier stock option plan established in 1981, both of which were superseded by the 1996 Plan. The 1996 Plan was further amended and restated on January 24, 2006 and renamed the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan). On May 9, 2006, the shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares available for grant under the 2006 Plan by the sum of (a) the number of shares that remained available for grant under the 2002 Stock Option Plan (the 2002 Plan) as of January 24, 2006, the date of board approval of the 2006 Plan, and (b) any shares that otherwise would have been returned to the 2002 Plan after January 24, 2006, on account of the expiration, cancellation, or forfeiture of awards granted thereunder. The 2006 Plan empowers the Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee) to award compensation primarily in the form of nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, or performance units to key employees. The 2002 Plan, formerly known as Stock Up On Success, was established on January 1, 1999. The Board originally authorized 53 million shares for issuance under the 2002 Plan, which includes shares available under an earlier stock option plan established in 1999 that was merged with the 2002 Plan. On May 9, 2006, the 2002 Plan was discontinued and only those awards then outstanding continue to be subject to the terms of the 2002 Plan under which they were granted. The 2002 Plan empowered the Committee to award nonqualified stock options to non-officer employees.
