have full authority to interpret the Plan and all Options granted hereunder; to
establish, amend, and rescind rules for carrying out the Plan; to administer the
Plan; to select employees, directors, consultants and Advisory Board members to
participate in the Plan; to grant Options under the Plan; to determine the
terms, exercise price and form of exercise payment for each Option granted under
the Plan; to determine whether each Option granted under the Plan shall be
intended to qualify as an "incentive stock option" under Section 422A of the
Code; and to make all other determinations and to take all such steps in
connection with the Plan and the Options as the Committee deems necessary or
desirable, all of which shall be in the Committee's sole discretion. The
Committee shall not be bound to any standards of uniformity or similarity of
action,

                                        2

   3

interpretation or conduct in the discharge of its duties hereunder, regardless
of the apparent similarity of the matters coming before it. Its determination
shall be binding on all parties.

        (b) Any Participant may hold more than one Option under the Plan and
under any other plan pursuant to which stock options, Shares or other incentives
may be granted, issued or paid.

        (c) The Committee may designate the Secretary of Jenny Craig, other
employees of Jenny Craig or competent professional advisors to assist the
Committee in the administration of the Plan, and may grant authority to such
persons to execute agreements or other documents on behalf of the Committee. The
Committee may employ such legal counsel, consultants and agents as it may deem
desirable for the administration of the Plan, and may rely upon any opinion
received from any such counsel or consultant and any computation received from
any such consultant or agent. Expenses incurred by the Committee in the
engagement of such counsel, consultant or agent shall be paid by Jenny Craig.

        (d) No member or former member of the Committee or of the Board shall be
liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the
Plan or any Option granted under it. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, each member or former member of the Committee or of the Board
shall be indemnified and held harmless by Jenny Craig against any cost or
expense (including counsel fees) or liability (including any sum paid in
settlement of a claim with the approval of Jenny Craig) arising out of any act
or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such
member's or former member's own fraud or bad faith. Such indemnification shall
be in addition to any rights of indemnification the members or former members
may have as directors under applicable law or under the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws of Jenny Craig.

        (e) The Committee shall select one of its members as a Chairman and
shall adopt such rules and regulations as it shall deem appropriate concerning
the holding of its meetings and the transaction of its business. Any member of
the Committee may be removed at any time either with or without cause by
resolution adopted by the Board, and any vacancy on the Committee may at any
time be filled by resolution adopted by the Board.

        (f) All determinations by the Committee shall be made by the affirmative
vote of a majority of its members. Any such determination may be made at a
meeting duly called and held at which a majority of the members of the Committee
were in attendance in person or through telephonic communication. Any
determination set forth in writing and signed by all of the members of the
Committee shall be as fully effective as if it had been made by a majority vote
of the members at a meeting duly called and held.


5. Shares; Adjustment Upon Certain Events

        (a) Shares to be issued under the Plan shall be made available, at the
discretion of the Board, either from authorized but unissued Shares or from
issued Shares reacquired by Jenny Craig.

        (b) Except as provided in this Section 5, the aggregate number of Shares
that may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000 shares. If Options
are for any reason cancelled, or expire or terminate unexercised, the Shares
covered by such Options shall again be available for the grant of Options,
subject to the limit provided by the preceding sentence.


                                        3

   4

        (c) No fractional Shares will be issued or transferred in the exercise
of any Option. In lieu thereof, Jenny Craig shall pay a cash adjustment equal to
the same fraction of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise.

        (d) The existence of the Plan and the Options granted hereunder shall
not affect in any way the right or power of the Board or the stockholders of
Jenny Craig to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization,
reorganization or other change in Jenny Craig's capital structure or its
business, any merger or consolidation of Jenny Craig, any issue of bonds,
debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks ahead of or affecting Common
Stock, the dissolution or liquidation of Jenny Craig or any sale or transfer of
all or part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding,
in which case the provisions of this Section 5 shall govern outstanding Options.

        (e) The Shares with respect to which Options may be granted are Shares
of Common Stock as presently constituted, but, if and whenever, prior to the
expiration of an Option theretofore granted, Jenny Craig shall effect a
subdivision, recapitalization or consolidation of Shares or the payment of a
stock dividend on Shares without receipt of consideration, the purchase price
per Share and the number and class of Shares and/or other securities with
respect to which such Option thereafter may be exercised, and the total number
and class of Shares and/or other securities that may be issued under this Plan,
shall be proportionately adjusted.

        (f) If Jenny Craig merges or consolidates with one or more corporations,
then from and after the effective date of such merger or consolidation, upon
exercise of an Option theretofore granted the Participant shall be entitled to
purchase under such Option, in lieu of the number of Shares as to which such
Option shall then be exercisable but on the same terms and conditions of
exercise set forth in such Option, the number and class of Shares and/or other
securities or property (including cash) to which the Participant would have been
entitled pursuant to the terms of the agreement of merger or consolidation if,
immediately prior to such merger or consolidation, the Participant had been the
holder of record of the total number of Shares receivable upon exercise of such
Option (whether or not then exercisable) had such merger or consolidation not
occurred.

        (g) If, as a result of any adjustment made pursuant to the preceding
paragraphs of this Section 5, any Participant shall become entitled upon
exercise of an Option to receive any securities other than Common Stock, then
the number and class of securities so receivable thereafter shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the provisions with respect to the Common Stock set forth in this
Section 5.

        (h) Except as hereinbefore expressly provided, the issuance by Jenny
Craig of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of
stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale,
upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon
conversion of shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for
fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made
with respect to, the number and class of Shares and/or other securities or
property subject to Options theretofore granted or the purchase price per Share.

        (i) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5 to the contrary, if
authorized but previously unissued Shares are issued under the Plan, such Shares
shall not be issued for a consideration less than their par value.

6. Awards and Terms of Options

        (a) Grant. The Committee may grant Options not intended to be "incentive
stock options" within the meaning of section 422A of the Code to key employees,
Advisory Board members and consultants to the Company, and may grant "incentive
stock options" to key employees. The Board may grant Options not intended to be
"incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422A of the Code to
non-employee directors. Additionally, without further action by the Board, the
Committee or the stockholders of Jenny Craig, each non-employee director on the
date immediately prior to the effective date of Jenny Craig's initial public
offering of its common stock, and each person who becomes a non-employee
director thereafter and prior to November 1, 1996 shall automatically receive,
(x) a one-time grant, effective on the date immediately prior to the effective
date of such public offering or, if later, on the date of such person becoming a
director, of Options to purchase 5,000 Shares, and (y) an annual grant, on each
anniversary of the initial grant for so long as such person continues to be a
director, of Options to purchase 500 Shares. Options shall be evidenced by
Option agreements in such form not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee
shall approve from time to time, which agreements shall contain in substance the
following terms and conditions:

               (i) Exercise Price. The purchase price per Share deliverable upon
        the exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Committee, but
        shall not be less than the Minimum Exercise Price. For Options received
        by non-employee directors pursuant to the second sentence of Section
        6(a), the purchase price per Share deliverable upon the exercise of an
        Option shall be the Minimum Exercise Price.

               (ii) Number of Shares. The Option agreement shall specify the
        number of Options granted to the Participant, as determined by the
        Committee or as set forth in the second sentence of this Section 6(a)
        with respect to options granted pursuant to such sentence. The maximum
        number of Options that may be granted under the Plan during any calendar
        year to any Participant shall not exceed 500,000 Options, provided
        however that if the Company grants to any Participant during any
        calendar year less than 500,000 Options or does not grant any Options
        during any calendar year to such Participant, then the amount of such
        shortfall shall be carried forward and added to the maximum number of
        Options which may be granted in a subsequent year to such Participant.
        If some of the Options held by a Participant are exercised, any
        unexercised Options held by such Participant shall remain outstanding
        and shall be or become exercisable according to their respective terms.

               (iii) Period of Exercisability. Except as otherwise provided in
        the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Committee, no Option granted
        under the Plan shall become exercisable earlier than the expiration of
        six (6) months after the date of grant and each Option shall be
        exercisable after the expiration of such period. The Committee may
        prescribe shorter or longer time periods, periods of partial
        exercisability and additional requirements or conditions with respect to
        the exercise of Options in the Option agreement and may provide, either
        at the time of grant or thereafter, for the acceleration of an Option;
        provided, however, that no Option shall be exercisable after the
        expiration of ten (10) years from the date of grant. Except as
        hereinafter provided, or as provided in the Participant's Option
        agreement, or as may be determined by the Committee, Options granted to
        any Participant may be exercised only during the continuance of that
        Participant's employment by the Company, service on the Board or
        Advisory Board or service as a consultant to the Company.

        (b) Procedure for Exercise. A Participant electing to exercise one or
more Options shall give written notice to the Chief Financial Officer of Jenny
Craig of such election and of the number of Options the


                                        5

   6

Participant has elected to exercise. Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise
of Options shall be paid for at the time of exercise in cash, by the delivery of
unencumbered Shares owned by the Participant (provided that such Shares have
been owned by the Participant for such period as is required by applicable
accounting standards to avoid a charge to earnings), or on such other terms and
conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee and in accordance with Delaware
law. Upon receipt of payment, Jenny Craig shall deliver to the Participant as
soon as practicable a certificate or certificates for the Shares then purchased.

        (c) Expiration and Cancellation. If not previously exercised, each
Option shall expire upon the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of the grant
thereof or upon the earlier termination of the Participant's employment by the
Company, service on the Board or Advisory Board or service as a consultant to
the Company, except as otherwise provided by Section 7 of the Plan.


7. Effect of Termination of Employment or Other Service

        (a) By Reason of the Participant's Death. Except as otherwise provided
in the Participant's Option agreement, if the Participant dies while an employee
of the Company or while serving as a consultant to the Company, all outstanding
Options not exercised by the Participant prior to death shall become immediately
exercisable by the Participant's estate or by the person given authority to
exercise such Options by the Participant's will or by operation of law. Unless
otherwise specified in the Option Agreement, such Options shall remain
exercisable for a period of one (1) year from the date of the Participant's
death; provided, however, that no Option may be exercised more than ten (10)
years from the date of grant.

        (b) By Reason of the Participant's Retirement or Disability. Except as
otherwise provided in the Participant's Option agreement, if a Participant
retires at or after age 65 (or, with the consent of the Committee, before age
65), or if a Participant's employment with, or service as a consultant to, the
Company terminates due to disability (within the meaning of section 105(d)(4) of
the Code), all outstanding Options not exercised by the Participant prior to the
termination of his employment or service as a consultant shall immediately
become exercisable. Unless otherwise specified in the Option agreement, all such
Options shall remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year from the date of
termination of the Participant's employment or service as a consultant, except
that Options intended to qualify as incentive stock options may be exercised
only for a period of three (3) months after termination of employment due to
retirement; provided, however, that no Option may be exercised more than ten
(10) years after the date of the grant thereof.

        (c) By Reason of Other Separation from Service. Except as otherwise
provided in the Participant's Option agreement, if a Participant's employment or
service as a consultant is terminated for cause (as hereinafter defined) or is
terminated by the Participant in violation of an agreement between the
Participant and the Company, or if it is discovered after his separation from
service that he had engaged in conduct that would have justified termination of
his employment or service as a consultant for cause, all unexercised and
outstanding Options held by the Participant shall immediately be cancelled.
Termination shall be deemed to be for "cause" if (i) the Participant shall have
committed fraud or any felony in connection with the Participant's duties as an
employee of, or consultant to, the Company, or willful misconduct or the
commission of any other act which causes or may reasonably be expected to cause
substantial economic or reputational injury to the Company, or (ii) such
termination is or would be deemed to be for cause under any employment or
consulting agreement between the Company and the Participant. Unless otherwise
specified in the Option agreement, upon any termination of employment, or
service as a consultant, not


                                        6

   7

governed by the preceding portion of this Section 7(c) or by Sections 7(a) or
7(b) hereof, all outstanding Options not exercised by the Participant prior to
the termination of his employment, or service as a consultant, shall remain
exercisable (to the extent exercisable by him immediately before such
separation) for a period of three (3) months after such separation; provided,
however, that (i) except as otherwise provided in the Participant's Option
Agreement, or as otherwise determined by the Committee, no Options that were not
exercisable during the period of the Participant's employment, or service as a
consultant, shall thereafter become exercisable and (ii) no such Option may be
exercised more than ten (10) years after the date of the grant.

        (d) Termination of Other Service. If a non-employee Participant's
service as a member of the Board or the Advisory Board is terminated because of
death, retirement, disability or other reason, any outstanding Options not
exercised by the Participant prior to such termination shall become immediately
exercisable by the Participant (or, in the case of death, by the Participant's
estate or by the person given authority to exercise such Options by the
Participant's will or by operation of law), and such Options shall remain
exercisable for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of
service; provided, however, that no Option may be exercised more than ten (10)
years from the date of grant.


8. Nontransferability of Options

        No Option shall be transferable by the Participant otherwise than by
will or under applicable laws of descent and distribution. In addition, no
Option shall be assigned, negotiated, pledged, or hypothecated in any way
(whether by operation of law or otherwise), and no Option shall be subject to
execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any transfer, assignment,
negotiation, pledge or hypothecation of any Option, or in the event of any levy
upon any Option by reason of any execution, attachment or similar process,
contrary to the provisions hereof, such Option shall immediately become null and
void.


9. Rights as a Stockholder

        A Participant (or a permitted transferee of an Option) shall have no
rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by his Option until
he shall have become the holder of record of such Share(s), and no adjustments
shall be made for dividends in cash or other property or distributions or other
rights in respect to any such Shares, except as otherwise specifically provided
for in this Plan.


10. Determinations

        Each determination, interpretation or other action made or taken
pursuant to the provisions of this Plan by the Board or Committee shall be final
and binding for all purposes and upon all persons, including, without
limitation, the Participants, the Company, the directors, officers, employees
and members of the Advisory Board of the Company, and their respective heirs,
executors, administrators, personal representatives and other successors in
interest.

11.  Termination, Amendment and Modification

        (a) The Plan shall terminate at the close of business on August 28,
2003, unless terminated sooner as hereinafter provided, and no Option shall be
granted under the Plan thereafter. The termination of the Plan shall not
terminate any outstanding Options which by their terms continue beyond the
termination date of the Plan. At any time prior to that date, the Board may
terminate the Plan or suspend the Plan in whole or in part, or amend the Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no such action may, without the approval
of the stockholders of Jenny Craig, increase the total number of Shares which
may be acquired upon exercise of Options granted under the Plan; reduce the
Minimum Exercise Price at which any Option may be exercised below the Minimum
Exercise Price; change the class of persons eligible to be Participants; or,
unless no longer required as a condition of compliance with the requirements of
Rule 16b-3, change the number of Options to be granted to non-employee
directors, or materially increase the benefits accruing to non-employee
directors hereunder.

        (b) Nothing contained in this Section 11 shall be deemed to prevent the
Board or the Committee from authorizing amendments of outstanding Options of
Participants including, without limitation, the reduction of the exercise price
specified therein (or the granting or issuance of new Options at a lower
exercise price upon cancellation of outstanding Options), so long as all Options
outstanding at any one time shall not call for issuance of more Shares than the
remaining number provided for under the Plan and so long as the provisions of
any amended Options would have been permissible under the Plan if such Option
had been originally granted or issued as of the date of such amendment with such
amended terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 11, no termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan may, without
the consent of the Participant or the transferee of his Option, alter or impair
the rights and obligations arising under any then outstanding Option.


12. Non-Exclusivity

        Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor the submission of the
Plan to the stockholders of Jenny Craig for approval shall be construed as
creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive
arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the
granting or issuance of Options, Shares and/or other incentives otherwise than
under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or
limited in application.


13. Use of Proceeds

        The proceeds of the sale of Shares subject to Options under the Plan are
to be added to the general funds of Jenny Craig and used for its general
corporate purposes as the Board shall determine.


14. General Provisions

        (a) The Plan shall not impose any obligations on the Company to continue
the employment of, or retain in any other capacity, any Participant, nor shall
it impose any obligation on the part of any Participant to remain in the employ
of, or in any other capacity with the Company.


                                        8

   9

        (b) If the Board determines that the law so requires, the holder of an
Option granted hereunder shall, upon any exercise or conversion thereof, execute
and deliver to Jenny Craig a written statement, in form satisfactory to Jenny
Craig, representing and warranting that he is purchasing or accepting the Shares
then acquired for his own account and not with a view to the resale or
distribution thereof, that any subsequent offer for sale or sale of any such
Shares shall be made either pursuant to (i) a Registration Statement on an
appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which
Registration Statement shall have become effective and shall be current with
respect to the Shares being offered and sold, or (ii) a specific exemption from
the registration requirements of said Act, and that in claiming such exemption
the holder will, prior to any offer for sale or sale of such Shares, obtain a
favorable written opinion from counsel approved by Jenny Craig as to the
availability of such exception.

        (c) Nothing contained in the Plan and no action taken pursuant to the
Plan (including, without limitation, the grant of any Option thereunder) shall
create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary
relationship, between the Company and any Participant or the executor,
administrator or other personal representative, or designated beneficiary of
such Participant, or any other persons. If and to the extent that any
Participant or his executor, administrator, or other personal representative, as
the case may be, acquires a right to receive any payment from the Company
pursuant to the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an
unsecured general creditor of the Company.


15. Issuance of Stock Certificates, Legends and Payment of Expenses

        (a) Upon any exercise of an Option and payment of the exercise price as
provided in such Option, a certificate or certificates for the Shares as to
which such Option has been exercised shall be issued by Jenny Craig in the name
of the person or persons exercising such Option and shall be delivered to or
upon the order of such person or persons.

        (b) Certificates for Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall bear
such legend or legends as the Board, in its discretion, determines to be
necessary or appropriate to prevent a violation of, or to perfect an exemption
from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or to implement the provisions of any agreements between the Company and the
Participant with respect to such Shares.

        (c) Jenny Craig shall pay all issue or transfer taxes with respect to
the issuance or transfer of Shares, as well as all fees and expenses necessarily
incurred by Jenny Craig in connection with such issuance or transfer and with
the administration of the Plan.


16. Listing of Shares and Related Matters

        If at any time the Board shall determine in its sole discretion that the
listing, registration or qualification of the Shares covered by the Plan upon
any national securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the
consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or
desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the award or sale of Shares
under the Plan, no Shares will be delivered unless and until such listing,
registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or
