(e)
    On March 20, 2013, the stockholders of Hewlett-Packard Company (“HP”) approved the Second Amended and Restated Hewlett-Packard Company 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended effective February 28, 2013 (as amended, the “Newly Amended Plan”). The Newly Amended Plan previously had been approved by the HR and Compensation Committee of the HP Board of Directors, subject to stockholder approval.   The Newly Amended Plan amends the Amended and Restated Hewlett-Packard Company 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, which was approved by stockholders on March 17, 2010 (the “Amended Plan”).
 
   The Newly Amended Plan provides for the following changes to the Amended Plan:
   
  ● Makes an additional 172,500,000 shares of common stock available for issuance;
     
  ● Adds a provision to allow for a fungible share pool that reduces the share reserve much more rapidly when “full value” awards, such as restricted stock and performance-based restricted units, are granted;
     
  ● Adds the ability to grant stock appreciation rights;
     
  ● Increases the share limits per individual;
     
  ● Adds a $550,000 value limit to the annual equity retainer that can be granted to non-employee directors in any plan year;
     
  ● Amends the performance criteria to include the performance criteria under the Hewlett-Packard Company 2005 Pay-for-Results Plan; and
     
  ● Extends the expiration of the Amended Plan for ten years.
     
 
    A description of the material terms and conditions of the Newly Amended Plan appears on pages 47 to 51 of HP's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on January 31, 2013 (the “Proxy Statement”).  That description is incorporated by reference herein, and a copy of that description is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.  Such description and the other information relating to the Newly Amended Plan included herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Newly Amended Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto.
