In addition, the Plan is designed to encourage and provide opportunities for stock ownership by such employees which will increase their proprietary interest in the Company and, consequently, their identification with the interests of the shareholders of the Company.

Section 4: Administration

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. If at any time the Committee shall not be in existence, the Board shall administer the Plan, and in such case, all references to the Committee herein shall include the Board.

Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, the Committee shall have full power and authority to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant under the Plan; (iii) determine the number of Shares to be covered by (or with respect to which payments, rights or other matters are to be calculated in connection with) Awards granted to Participants; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted to a Participant; (v) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances Awards granted to Participants may be settled or exercised in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards, or other property or cancelled, forfeited or suspended to the extent permitted in Section 9 of the Plan, and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, cancelled,

Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations and other decisions under or with respect to the Plan or any Award shall be within the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time, and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons, including the Company, any Affiliate, any Participant, any holder or beneficiary of any Award, any shareholder and any employee of the Company or of any Affiliate. To the extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may delegate to one or more employee members of the Board the power to make Awards to Participants who are not Reporting Persons. To the extent the Committee has delegated any of its authority and responsibility hereunder to another person or persons, references to the Committee herein shall include such other person or persons as appropriate.

Section 5: Eligibility

Any Company employee shall be eligible to receive an Award under the Plan. In addition, consultants and advisors to the Company shall be eligible to receive Nonqualified Stock Options under Section 7(b) of the Plan, provided that bona fide services are rendered by such consultants or advisors and such services are not in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction.

Section 6: Stock Available for Awards

(a) Common Shares Available. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 6(c) below, the maximum number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan shall be 1,000,000.

(b) Share Usage Limits. For the period that the Plan is in effect the aggregate number of Shares that shall be granted as Stock Awards and Stock Appreciation Rights shall not exceed 100,000 Shares. Additionally, the aggregate number of Shares that could be awarded to any one Participant of the Plan during any fiscal year of the Company shall not exceed 200,000 Shares. In all cases, determinations under this Section 6(b) shall be made in a manner that is consistent with the exemption for performance-based compensation provided by Section 162(m) of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) and any regulation promulgated hereunder.

(c) Adjustments. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of Shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to shareholders, or any other change affecting Shares, such that an adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or any Award, then the Committee may, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the aggregate number and type of Shares that may be issued under the Plan, that may be issued as Stock Awards and Stock Appreciation Rights, or that may be issued to one Participant during any fiscal year; (ii) the number and type of Shares covered by each outstanding Award made under the Plan; and (iii) the exercise, base or purchase price per Share for any outstanding Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right and other Awards granted under the Plan.

(d) Common Stock Usage. If, after the effective date of the Plan, any Shares covered by an Award granted under the Plan, or to which any Award relates, are forfeited or if an Award otherwise terminates, expires or is cancelled prior to the delivery of all of the Shares or of other consideration issuable or payable pursuant to such Award, then the number of Shares counted against the number of Shares available under the Plan in connection with the grant of such Award, to the extent of any such forfeiture, termination, expiration or cancellation, shall again be available for granting of additional Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the cancellation of an Award with respect to a Participant to whom Section 162(m) of the Code applies, the Shares subject to such cancelled Award shall continue to be counted against the maximum number of Shares which may be granted to the Participant under the Plan.

Section 7: Awards

(a) General. The Committee shall determine the type or types of Award(s) (as set forth below) to be made to each Participant and shall approve the terms and conditions of all such Awards in accordance with Sections 4 and 8 of the Plan. Awards may be granted singularly, in combination, or in tandem such that the settlement of one Award automatically reduces or cancels the other. Awards may also be made in replacement of, as alternatives to, or as form of payment for grants or rights under any other employee compensation plan or arrangement of the Company, including the plans of any acquired entity.

(b) Stock Options. A Stock Option shall confer on a Participant the right to purchase a specified number of Shares from the Company with the terms and conditions as set forth below and with such additional terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine.

The Committee shall establish the purchase price per Share under the Stock Option at the time each Stock Option is awarded, provided that the price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of award. Stock Options may be in the form of ISOs or NQSOs. If a Participant owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules applicable under Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any subsidiary or parent corporation and an ISO is awarded to such Participant, the option price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value at the time such ISO is awarded. The aggregate Fair Market Value at time of grant of the Shares covered by ISOs exercisable by any one optionee in any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000 (or such other limit as may be required by the Code); provided that to the extent such limit is exceeded, the ISO's shall automatically be deemed to be NQSOs.

The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee; provided, however, that in no event shall the term of any Stock Option exceed a period of ten years from the date of its grant. A Stock Option shall become exercisable in such manner and within such period or periods and in such installments or otherwise as shall be determined by the Committee. Except as provided below, payment of the exercise price of a Stock Option shall be made at the time of exercise in cash or such other forms as the Committee may approve, including by tendering, by either actual delivery of shares or by attestation, shares valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, or in a combination of forms. The Committee may also permit Participants to have the option price delivered to the Company by a broker pursuant to an arrangement whereby the Company, upon irrevocable instructions from a Participant, delivers the exercised Shares to the broker.

(c) Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs). An SAR grant shall confer on a Participant the right to receive, upon exercise, an amount determined by multiplying: (i) the positive difference, if any, between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise and the base price of the SAR contained in the terms and conditions of the Award by (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the grant price, term, methods of exercise, methods of settlement (including whether the Participant will be paid in cash, Shares or combination thereof), and any other terms and conditions of any SAR shall be determined by the Committee. Shares issued in settlement of the exercise of SARs shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of the exercise. The Committee shall establish the base price of the SAR at the time the SARs are awarded, provided that the base price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of award or the exercise or payment price of the related Award if the SAR is granted in combination with or in tandem with another 5 <PAGE> Award. The Committee may impose such conditions or restrictions on the exercise of any SAR as it may deem appropriate.

4

(d) Stock Awards. A Stock Award shall confer on a Participant the right to receive a specified number of Shares or a cash equivalent payment or a combination thereof, subject to the terms and conditions of the Award, which may include forfeitability contingencies based on continued employment with the Company or on meeting specified performance criteria or both. The Committee shall determine the restriction or performance period, the performance goals or targets to be achieved during any performance period, the proportion of payments, if any, to be made for performance between the minimum and full performance levels, the restrictions, if any, applicable to any Shares awarded or received upon payment of performance shares or units, and any other terms, conditions and rights relating to a grant of Stock Awards. A Stock Award may be in the form of Shares or Share units. The Committee may also grant Stock Awards that are not subject to any restrictions. The Committee may provide that, during a performance or restriction period, a Participant shall be paid cash amounts, with respect to each Stock Award held by such Participant, in the same manner, at the same time and in the same amount paid, as a cash dividend on a Share. Any other provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may at any time adjust performance goals (up or down) and minimum or full performance levels (and any intermediate levels and proportion of payments related thereto), adjust the manner in which performance goals are measured, or shorten any performance period or waive in whole or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to Shares subject to restrictions, if the Committee determines that conditions, including but not limited to, changes in the economy, changes in competitive conditions, changes in laws or governmental regulations, changes in generally accepted accounting principles, changes in the Company's accounting policies, acquisitions or dispositions by the Company or its Affiliates, or the occurrence of other unusual, unforeseen or extraordinary events, so warrant.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may designate whether any such Award is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m) ("Performance-Based Compensation"). Any Award designated as Performance-Based Compensation shall be conditioned on the achievement of one or more of the following performance goals or targets, as selected by the Committee:

5

revenues, earnings per share, return on shareholder equity, return on average total capital employed, return on net assets employed before interest and taxes and/or economic value added. For Awards intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, the grant of such Award and the establishment of the performance goal(s) or target(s) shall be made during the period required under Code Section 162(m), and the Committee shall not have discretion to increase the amount of compensation payable that would otherwise be due upon the Participant's attainment of the performance goal(s) or target(s).

Section 8: General Provisions Applicable to Awards

(a) No Consideration for Awards. Awards shall be granted to Participants for no cash consideration unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

(b) Transferability and Exercisability. No Award subject to the Plan and no right under any such Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or otherwise transferable by the Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided, however, that if so permitted by the Committee, a Participant may (i) designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise the Participant's rights and receive any distributions under the Plan upon the Participant's death and (ii) transfer an Award.

(c) General Restrictions. Each Award shall be subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any Award under the Plan upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any government regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Award or the grant or settlement thereof, such Award may not be exercised or settled in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

(d) Grant Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall determine the provisions and duration of grants made under the Plan, including the option prices for all Stock Options, the base prices for all SARs, the consideration, if any, to be required from Participants for Stock Awards, and the conditions under which a Participant will retain rights under the Plan in the event of the Participant's termination of employment while holding any outstanding Awards.

(e) Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right, upon issuance of Shares or payment of cash in respect of an Award, to reduce the number of Shares or amount of cash, as the case may be, otherwise issuable or payable by the amount necessary to satisfy any federal, state or local withholding taxes or to take such other actions as may be necessary to satisfy any such withholding obligations. The Committee may require or permit Shares including previously acquired Shares and Shares that are part of, or are received upon exercise of the Award, to be used to satisfy required tax withholding and such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date the tax withholding is effective.

(f) Documentation of Grants. Awards made under the Plan shall be evidenced by written agreements in such form (consistent with the terms of the Plan) or such other appropriate documentation as shall be approved by the Committee. The Committee need not require the execution of any instrument or acknowledgement of notice of an Award under the Plan, in which case acceptance of such Award by the respective Participant will constitute agreement to the terms of the Award.

(g) Settlement. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award agreement, the Committee shall determine whether Awards are settled in whole or in part in cash, Shares, or other Awards. The Committee may require or permit a Participant to defer all or any portion of a payment under the Plan, including the crediting of interest on deferred amounts denominated in cash.

6

(h) Change in Control. In order to preserve a Participant's rights under an Award in the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Company, the Committee in its discretion may, at the time an Award is made or at any time thereafter, take one or more of the following actions: (i) provide for the acceleration of any time period relating to the exercise or realization of the Award, (ii) provide for the purchase of the Award upon the Participant's request for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received upon the exercise or realization of the Award had the Award been currently exercisable or payable, (iii) adjust the terms of the Award in a manner determined by the Committee to reflect the Change in Control, (iv) cause the Award to be assumed, or new rights substituted therefore, by another entity, or (v) make such other provision as the Committee may consider equitable and in the best interests of the Company. For purposes of this Plan, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if the Johnson Family (as defined below) shall at any time fail to own stock of the Company having, in the aggregate, votes sufficient to elect at least a fifty-one percent (51%) majority of the directors of the Company. Johnson Family shall mean at any time, collectively, Samuel C. Johnson, his wife and their children and grandchildren, the executor or administrators of the estate or other legal representative of any such person, all trusts for the benefit of the foregoing or their heirs or any one or more of them, and all partnerships, corporations or other entities directly or indirectly controlled by the foregoing or any one or more of them.

Section 9: Miscellaneous

(a) Plan Amendment. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan as it deems necessary or appropriate to better achieve the purposes of the Plan; provided, however, that no amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination of the Plan shall in any manner (except as otherwise provided in the Plan) adversely affect any Award granted and then outstanding under the Plan without the consent of the respective Participant.

The Committee may, in whole or in part, waive any conditions or other restrictions with respect to, and may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award granted under the Plan to a Participant, prospectively or retroactively, but no such action shall impair the rights of a Participant without his or her consent, except as otherwise provided herein.

(b) No Right to Employment. No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment. The Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan, except as expressly provided by an applicable Award.

(c) No Rights as Shareholder. Only upon issuance of Shares to a Participant (and only in respect to such Shares) shall the Participant obtain the rights of a shareholder, subject, however, to any limitations imposed by the terms of the applicable Award.

7

(d) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued under the Plan, however, the Committee may provide for a cash payment as settlement in lieu of any fractional shares.

(e) Other Company Benefit and Compensation Programs. Except as expressly determined by the Committee, settlements of Awards received by Participants under this Plan shall not be deemed as part of a Participant's regular, recurring compensation for purposes of calculating payments or benefits from any Company benefit or severance program (or severance pay law of any country). The above notwithstanding, the Company may adopt other compensation programs, plans or arrangements as it deems appropriate or necessary.

(f) Unfunded Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Plan shall be unfunded and shall not create (or be construed to create) a trust or a separate fund(s). The Plan shall not create any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person. To the extent any person holds any rights by virtue of an Award granted under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(g) Successors and Assignees. The Plan shall be binding on all successors and assignees of a Participant, including, without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or representative of the Participant's creditors.

(h) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any actions taken under or relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin and applicable federal law.
