The Hanesbrands Inc. Performance-Based Annual Incentive Plan
 
The Hanesbrands Inc. Performance-Based Annual Incentive Plan, or the “Hanesbrands AIP,” is designed to provide annual cash awards that satisfy the conditions for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code and is administered by our Compensation and Benefits Committee. Under the Hanesbrands AIP, the Compensation and Benefits Committee has the authority to grant annual incentive awards to our key employees (including our executive officers) or the key employees of our subsidiaries.
 
Awards under the Hanesbrands AIP are drawn from an incentive pool that is equal to 3% of our operating income for the fiscal year. For purposes of the Hanesbrands AIP, “operating income” will mean our operating income for a performance period as reported on our income statement computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but shall exclude (i) the effects of charges for restructurings, (ii) discontinued operations, (iii) extraordinary items or other unusual or non-recurring items and (iv) the cumulative effect of tax or accounting changes. The incentive pool from which the Hanesbrands AIP awards will be drawn will be established for a performance period that typically corresponds to our fiscal year.
 
The Compensation and Benefits Committee will allocate an incentive pool percentage to each designated participant for each performance period. In no event may the incentive pool percentage for any one participant exceed 40% of the total pool for that performance period. Each participant’s incentive award will be determined by the Compensation and Benefits Committee based on the participant’s allocated portion of the incentive pool and attainment of specified performance measures subject to adjustment in the sole discretion of the Compensation and Benefits Committee. In no event may the portion of the incentive pool allocated to a participant who is a covered employee for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code be increased in any way, including as a result of the reduction of any other participant’s allocated portion, but such portion may be decreased by the Compensation and Benefits Committee. The Compensation and Benefits Committee may make retroactive adjustments to, and the participant shall reimburse us for, any cash or equity based incentive compensation paid to the participant where such compensation was predicated upon achieving certain financial results that were substantially the subject of a restatement, and as a result of the restatement it is determined that the participant otherwise would not have been paid such compensation, regardless of whether or not the restatement resulted from the participant’s misconduct.
