(b) Authority of Committee. The Committee has and may exercise such powers and authority of the Board as may be necessary or appropriate for the Committee to carry out its functions as described in the Plan. The Committee has authority in its discretion to determine the Eligible Persons to whom, and the time(s) at which, Incentive Awards may be granted and the number of shares, units, or Appreciation Rights subject to each Incentive Award. The Committee has authority to interpret the Plan, to make determinations as to whether a Participant or a Director is permanently and totally disabled, and to determine the terms and provisions of Incentive Awards. The Committee has authority to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for Plan administration and to prescribe and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan. All interpretations, determinations, and actions by the Committee will be final, conclusive, and binding upon all parties.

(c) Manner of Exercise of Committee Authority. At any time that a member of the Committee is not a Qualified Member, any action of the Committee relating to an Incentive Award granted or to be granted to a Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company, or relating to an Award intended by the Committee to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m), may be taken either (i) by a subcommittee, designated by the Committee, composed solely of two or more Qualified Members, or (ii) by the Committee but with each such member who is not a Qualified Member abstaining or recusing himself or herself from such action; provided, however, that, upon such abstention or recusal, the Committee remains composed solely of two or more Qualified Members. Such action, authorized by such a subcommittee or by the Committee upon the abstention or recusal of such non-Qualified Member(s), shall be the action of the Committee for purposes of this Plan. Any action of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company, its subsidiaries, stockholders, Participants or other persons claiming rights from or through a Participant. The express grant of any specific power to the Committee, and the taking of any action by the Committee, shall not be construed as limiting any power or authority of the Committee. The Committee may delegate to officers or employees of the Company or a subsidiary, or committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms as the Committee shall determine, to perform such functions, including administrative functions, as the Committee may determine, to the extent that such delegation will not result in the loss of an exemption under Rule 16b-3(d)(1) under the Exchange Act for Incentive Awards granted to Participants subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company and will not cause Incentive Awards intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) to fail to so qualify. The Committee may appoint agents to assist it in administering this Plan.

(d) One-Time Option Exchange. As approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 26, 2005, the Company may implement a one-time only exchange of certain Options for Restricted Units pursuant to the terms of the option exchange program described in the Company’s 2005 proxy statement.

12. Section 162(m) Awards.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Restricted Stock, Performance Units and Restricted Units referred to in Sections 8, 10 and 11, respectively, may be granted as awards that satisfy the additional requirements of this Section 12 so as to qualify for exemption as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m). Any such award shall be designated as a Section 162(m) Award at the time of grant.

(a) Eligible Class. The eligible class of persons for Section 162(m) Awards shall be all Eligible Persons.

(b) Performance Goals. A Participant’s right to receive any payment with respect to an Incentive Award designated as a Section 162(m) Award shall be determined by the degree Performance Goal(s) is/are achieved. The specific Performance Goal(s) with respect to a Section 162(m) Award must be established by the Committee in accordance with Section 162(m). Notwithstanding anything in the

12

Plan to the contrary (other than Section 14(d)), as and to the extent required by Section 162(m), the Performance Goal(s) must state, in terms of an objective formula or standard, the method of computing the amount of compensation payable to the Participant if the Performance Goal(s) is/are attained, and must not allow the Committee nor the Board to use its discretion to increase the amount of compensation payable that otherwise would be due upon attainment of the Performance Goal(s).

(c) Committee Certification. Before any Section 162(m) Award is paid to a Participant, the Committee must certify in writing (by resolution or otherwise) that the applicable Performance Goal(s) and any other material terms of the Section 162(m) Award were satisfied.

(d) Terms And Conditions of Awards; Committee Discretion to Reduce Awards. The Committee shall have discretion to determine the conditions, restrictions or other limitations, in accordance with the terms of this Plan and Section 162(m), on the payment of individual Section 162(m) Awards. Unless otherwise provided in a Section 162(m) Award agreement, the Committee reserves the right to reduce the amount otherwise payable under a Section 162(m) Award on any basis (including the Committee’s discretion).

(e) Adjustments for Material Changes. As and to the extent permitted by Section 162(m), in the event of (i) a change in corporate capitalization, a corporate transaction or a complete or partial corporate liquidation, or (ii) any extraordinary gain or loss or other event that is treated for accounting purposes as an extraordinary item under generally accepted accounting principles, or (iii) any material change in accounting policies or practices affecting the Company and/or the Performance Goal(s), then, to the extent any of the foregoing events was not anticipated at the time the Performance Goal(s) was established, the Committee may make adjustments to the Performance Goal(s), based solely on objective criteria, so as to neutralize the effect of the event on the applicable Section 162(m) Award.

(f) Interpretation. It is the intent of the Company that the Section 162(m) Awards satisfy, and be interpreted in a manner that satisfy, the applicable requirements of Section 162(m), including the requirements for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m)(4)(C), so that the Company’s tax deduction for remuneration in respect of such an award for services performed by employees of the Company who are subject to Section 162(m) is not disallowed in whole or in part by the operation of such Code section. If any provision of this Plan otherwise would frustrate or conflict with the intent expressed in this Section 12, that provision, to the extent possible, shall be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid such conflict. To the extent of any remaining irreconcilable conflict with such intent, such provision shall be deemed void as applicable to such employees with respect to whom such conflict exists. Nothing herein shall be interpreted so as to preclude any Eligible Person from receiving an award that is not a Section 162(m) Award.

13. Limits on Awards.

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock or stock units underlying Incentive Awards that may be granted to any Eligible Person during any period of five consecutive fiscal years of the Company, beginning with fiscal year 2002, shall not exceed an average of 1,000,000 shares per year, either individually or in the aggregate, with respect to all such types of awards, with such number of shares subject to adjustment on the same basis as provided in Section 14. To the extent required by Section 162(m), awards subject to the foregoing limit that are cancelled shall not again be available for grant under this limit. The maximum dollar amount of cash compensation in respect of Performance Units that may be paid to any Eligible Person during any period of five consecutive fiscal years of the Company, beginning with fiscal year 2002, shall not exceed an annual average of $5,000,000.

14. Adjustment Provisions.

(a) Subdivision or Consolidation of Common Stock. Subject to Section 14(b), if the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are increased, decreased, or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities, or if additional shares or new or different shares or other securities are distributed with respect to such shares of Common Stock, through merger, consolidation, spin off, sale of all or substantially all the property of the Company, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other distribution with respect to such shares of Common Stock, or other securities, the Committee may make an appropriate and proportionate adjustment in (i) the maximum number and kind of shares provided in Section 3, (ii) the maximum number and kind of shares provided in Section 13, (iii) the number and kind of shares, units, or other securities subject to then-outstanding Incentive Awards, and (iv) the exercise or other price for each share or unit subject to then-outstanding Incentive Awards without change in the aggregate purchase price or value as to which such Incentive Awards remain exercisable or subject to restrictions.

(b) Corporate Restructuring. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14(a), upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company or upon a reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company with one or more corporations as a result of which the Company is not the surviving corporation or survives as a subsidiary of another corporation, or upon the sale of all or substantially all the property of the Company, all Incentive Awards then outstanding under the Plan will be fully vested and exercisable and all restrictions will immediately cease, unless provisions are made in connection with such transaction for the continuance of the Plan or the assumption or the substitution for such Incentive Awards of new incentive awards covering the stock of a successor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices.

(c) Committee Discretion. Adjustments under Sections 14(a) and (b) will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional interest will be issued under the Plan on account of any such adjustments.

14

(d) Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event a Change in Control occurs:

(i) all Incentive Awards held by Directors will be fully vested and any restrictions upon exercise in Section 7 will immediately cease; and

(ii) the Committee may, in its sole discretion, without obtaining shareholder approval, take any one or more of the following actions with respect to all Participants other than Directors:

(A) Accelerate the vesting and/or performance periods of, or where applicable make fully payable, any outstanding Incentive Awards;

(B) Determine that all or any portion of conditions and/or restrictions associated with any Incentive Award have been met;

(C) Grant a cash bonus award to any of the holders of outstanding Options, except the holders of outstanding Options that meet the requirements of Section 162(m);

(E) Pay cash to any or all Incentive Award holders in exchange for the cancellation of their outstanding Incentive Awards; and/or

(F) Make any other adjustments or amendments to the Plan and outstanding Incentive Awards and substitute new Incentive Awards.

15. General Provisions.

(a) No Right to Continued Services. Nothing in the Plan or in any instrument executed pursuant to the Plan will confer upon any Participant who is an Employee, Director, consultant or advisor any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affect the right of the Company to terminate the employment of any Employee, terminate the consulting or advisory services of any Participant at any time with or without cause, or the right of the Company’s shareholders to remove any Director from office in accordance with the Company’s bylaws.

(b) Conditions to Delivery of Common Stock. No shares of Common Stock will be issued or transferred pursuant to an Incentive Award unless and until all then-applicable requirements imposed by federal and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by any stock exchanges upon which the Common Stock may be listed, have been fully met. As a condition precedent to the issuance of shares pursuant to the grant, settlement or exercise of an Incentive Award, the Company may require the Participant to take any reasonable action to meet such requirements.

(c) Limitation on Shareholder Rights. No Participant and no beneficiary or other person claiming under or through such Participant will have any right, title or interest in or to any shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved under the Plan or subject to any Incentive Award except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any, that have been issued or transferred to such Participant.

15

(d) Taxes. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any settlement, including the delivery or vesting of Incentive Awards, made under the Plan any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such payments or take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. With respect to an Incentive Award, the Committee may, in its discretion, permit the Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, any tax withholding obligation which may arise in connection with the exercise of the Incentive Award by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the tax withholding.

(e) Transferability. Except with the prior written consent of the Committee, Incentive Awards granted under the Plan, shall not be transferable other than (i) by will or the laws of descent and distribution, (ii) pursuant to a domestic relations order, or (iii) by gift, and not for value, during the Participant’s lifetime to a revocable trust that has the same taxpayer identification number as the Participant and of which the Participant is the trustee, but only if such gift (A) would not result in the Company losing all or any part of the tax deduction to which it would be entitled, (B) does not otherwise adversely affect the interests of the Company as determined by the Committee, and (C) complies with all rules and regulations regarding such gifts established by the Company from time to time. The Committee may establish procedures pursuant to which Participants may designate beneficiaries to receive any outstanding Incentive Awards upon the death of the Participant. In addition the Committee may establish procedures to effectuate the division or transfer of Incentive Awards pursuant to a domestic relations order. Finally, the Committee in its own discretion may permit other transfers of Incentive Awards and may establish guidelines pursuant to which other transfers will be permissible.

(f) Additional Terms and Conditions of Incentive Awards. The forms of Incentive Awards granted under the Plan may contain such other provisions as the Committee may deem advisable.

16. Termination of Incentive Awards.

(a) Termination of Appreciation Rights and Options. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, an Appreciation Right or an Option held by a person who was an Employee at the time such Appreciation Right or Option was granted will expire immediately if and when such person ceases to be an Employee, except as follows:

(i) If the employment of an Employee is terminated by the Company other than for cause, for which the Company will be the sole judge, then the Appreciation Rights and Options will expire three months thereafter unless by their terms they expire sooner. During said period, the Appreciation Rights and Options may be exercised in accordance with their terms, but only to the extent exercisable on the date of termination of employment.

16

(ii) If the Employee retires at normal retirement age as determined by the Company from time to time, retires with the consent of the Company at an earlier date or becomes permanently and totally disabled, as determined by the Committee, while employed by the Company, the Appreciation Rights and Options of the Employee will continue to vest, be exercisable and expire in accordance with their terms.

(iii) If an Employee dies while employed by the Company, the Appreciation Rights and Options of the Employee will become fully exercisable as of the date of death and will expire three years after the date of death unless by their terms they expire sooner. If the Employee dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled as determined by the Committee within the three months referred to in subparagraph (i) above, the Appreciation Rights and Options will become fully exercisable as of the date of death or such permanent disability and will expire, in the case of death, one year after the date of such death. In the case of permanent and total disability such Options and Appreciation Rights will expire in accordance with their terms. If the Employee dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled as determined by the Committee subsequent to the time the Employee retires at normal retirement age or retires with the consent of the Company at an earlier date, the Appreciation Rights and Options will fully vest as of the date of death or permanent and total disability and will expire, in the case of death, one year after the date of death. In the case of permanent and total disability, such Appreciation Rights and Options will expire in accordance with their terms.

(b) Termination of Restricted Stock, Performance Units and Restricted Units. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event an Employee who holds Restricted Stock, Performance Units or Restricted Units (including any such award designated as a Section 162(m) Award) ceases to be an Employee, all such Restricted Stock, Performance Units or Restricted Units subject to restrictions at the time his/her employment terminates will expire, terminate and be cancelled except as follows:

(i) In the event the holder of Restricted Stock or Restricted Units ceases to be an Employee due to death, all such Restricted Stock or Restricted Units subject to restrictions at the time his/her employment terminates will no longer be subject to said restrictions.

(ii) If an Employee retires at normal retirement age as determined by the Company from time to time or retires with the consent of the Company at an earlier date or becomes permanently and totally disabled as determined by the Committee, all such Restricted Stock, Performance Units or Restricted Units will continue to vest over the applicable vesting or performance period provided that during these periods such Employee does not engage in or assist any business that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines to be in competition with any business conducted by the Company or any of its Business Units.

(iii) In the event a holder of Performance Units ceases to be an Employee prior to the end of a performance period applicable thereto, the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine whether to make any payment to the Participant in respect of such Performance Unit and the timing of such payment, if any.

17

(c) Termination of Incentive Awards Granted to Persons Other Than Employees or Directors. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event the engagement by the Company of a Participant who is an advisor or consultant, but not an Employee or Director, ceases for any reason (whether terminated by the Company or the Participant), the Participant’s unvested Appreciation Rights or Options shall not vest and the Participant’s unexercised but vested Appreciation Rights or Options will expire and become unexercisable 90 days after termination. The Participant’s Restricted Stock, Performance Units or Restricted Units subject to restrictions at the time the engagement ceases will expire, terminate and be cancelled.

(d) Leave of Absence. The Committee in its sole discretion may determine that any Participant who is on leave of absence for any reason will be considered as still in the employ or service of the Company with respect to any Incentive Award; provided, however, that such Participant’s rights to such Incentive Award during a leave of absence will be limited to the extent to which such Incentive Award was earned or vested at the commencement of such leave of absence.

(e) Section 409A Compliance. The Committee intends that any Incentive Awards which are subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code be administered in accordance with the provisions of Section 409A and the regulations thereunder. Accordingly, any Incentive Awards which are subject to Section 409A of the Code and will be settled by reason of a Participant’s separation from service, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, will be subject to the six (6) month delay applicable to “specified employees,” as defined under Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder, with the determination of specified employees being made using the optional rule of determining compensation under Section 1.415(c)-2(d)(4) of the Treasury Regulations (i.e., W-2 wages plus amounts that would be includible in wages except for an election under Section 125(a) of the Code (regarding cafeteria plan elections) under Section 132(f) of the Code (regarding qualified transportation fringe benefits) or Section 402(e)(3) of the Code (regarding Section 401(k) plan deferrals)) without regard to the special timing rules and special rules set forth, respectively, in Sections 1.415(c)-2(e) and 2(g) of the Treasury Regulations, which is the method used for determining specified employees under the Company’s other nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements. In addition, in the case of any Incentive Awards which are subject to Section 409A of the Code and will be settled by reason of a Participant’s disability, the determination of disability will be made utilizing the definition of disability contained in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code.

17. Amendment and Termination.

(a) Changes to the Plan. The Committee shall have the power, in its discretion, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. The Committee may not make amendments to the Plan that increase the benefits available under the Plan in any material respect, including, without limitation, (i) amending the provisions of Section 6(a), (ii) increasing the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued, transferred or exercised pursuant to Incentive Awards under the Plan, or (iii) changing the types or terms of Incentive Awards that may be made under the Plan, without the approval of the shareholders of the Company.

18

(b) Changes to Incentive Awards. Subject to Section 6(a), the Committee, with the consent of a Participant, may make such modifications in the terms and conditions of an Incentive Award as it deems advisable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the Board, with the consent of a Director, may make modifications in the terms and conditions of an Option granted to a Director.

(c) Participant Consent. No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan will, without the consent of the Participant, alter, terminate, impair or adversely affect any right or obligation under any Incentive Award previously granted under the Plan.

18. Effective Date of the Plan and Duration of the Plan.

This Plan originally became effective following adoption by the Board and upon approval of the Company’s shareholders at the shareholders’ annual meeting held on October 10, 2001. The Third Amended and Restated Plan became effective upon approval of the Company’s shareholders at the shareholders’ annual meeting held on May 26, 2005. On May 8, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved the Tenet Healthcare 2008 Stock Incentive Plan to replace the Plan. As such, the Plan was terminated on May 8, 2008, except with respect to Incentive Awards then outstanding. The Fourth Amended and Restated Plan is effective December 31, 2008 and amends the Plan to clarify its compliance with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code.
