a.    PURPOSE OF THE ALPHABET INC. COMPANYBONUS PLAN

The Alphabet Inc.

Participation in the Plan and the payment of any sums hereunder shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of Alphabet or the applicable Participating Affiliate.

The Plan is applicable to all Eligible Employees regardless of location. As appropriate, due to local country laws or regulations, certain provisions of the Plan may be modified or adjusted in the Company’s discretion to meet local legal requirements.

Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant and shall be effective only if given in a form and manner acceptable to the Committee. In the absence of any such designation, any such Bonus Award shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.
