1. PURPOSES. The principal purposes of the Robert Half International Inc.
StockPlus Plan (the "Plan") are: (a) to improve individual employee performance
by providing long-term incentives and rewards to employees of the Company, (b)

experience and ability, and (c) to associate the interests of such employees
with those of RHII's shareholders.
2. DEFINITIONS. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the
following terms, when used in this Plan, shall have the meanings set forth

Value shall be determined in good faith by the Administrator.

3. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by the Administrator,
which shall have full power and authority to administer and interpret the Plan
and to adopt such rules, regulations, agreements, guidelines and instruments for
the administration of the Plan as the Administrator deems necessary or
advisable. The Administrator's powers include, but are not limited to (subject
to the specific limitations described herein), authority to determine the
employees to be granted Options
1
<PAGE>
under the Plan, determine the size and applicable terms and conditions of grants
to be made to such employees, determine the time when Options will be granted
and authorize grants to eligible employees. Any guidelines that may be adopted
from time to time by the Administrator shall be advisory only and shall not be
binding upon the Administrator.
The Administrator's interpretations of the Plan, and all actions taken and
determinations made by the Administrator concerning any matter arising under or
with respect to the Plan or any Options granted hereunder, shall be final,
binding and conclusive on all interested parties. The Administrator may delegate
ministerial functions hereunder, such delegation to be subject to such terms and
conditions as the Administrator in its discretion shall determine. The
Administrator may as to all questions of accounting rely conclusively upon any
determinations made by the independent public accountants of the Company.
4. STOCK AVAILABLE FOR OPTIONS. The shares that may be delivered or
purchased under the Plan shall not exceed an aggregate of 20,070,000 shares of
Common Stock, subject to any adjustments which may be made pursuant to Section
11 hereof. Shares of Stock used for purposes of the Plan may be either shares of
authorized but unissued Common Stock or treasury shares or both. Stock covered
by Options which have terminated or expired prior to exercise or have been
surrendered or cancelled shall be available for further option hereunder.
5. ELIGIBILITY. All those employees of the Company as shall be determined
from time to time by the Administrator shall be eligible to participate in the
Plan, provided, however, that no employee may be granted Options in the
aggregate which would result in that employee receiving more than 10% of the
maximum number of shares available for issuance under the Plan. However, no
individual who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to
transactions in the Company's securities may be granted an option subsequent to
November 1, 1995.
6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. Each Option granted hereunder shall be
in writing and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Administrator may
determine, subject to the following:
(a) PRICE. The Option Price shall be determined by the Administrator
in its sole discretion.
(b) TERM AND EXERCISE DATES. Options granted hereunder shall have a
term of no longer than ten years from the Grant Date. A grant of Options
may become exercisable in installments; provided, however, that no Option
shall become exercisable until six months following the Grant Date of such
Option. However, Stock Options must be exercised for full shares of Common
Stock. To the extent that Stock Options are not exercised when they become
initially exercisable, they shall be carried forward and be exercisable
until the expiration of the term of such Stock Options, subject to the
provisions of Section 6(e) hereof. An option granted after November 1, 1995,
to an eligible employee pursuant to this Plan shall automatically expire if,
within six months after its grant, the recipient of such option becomes
subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to transactions
in the Company's securities.
(c) EXERCISE OF OPTION. To exercise an Option, the holder thereof
shall give notice of his or her exercise to the Company, specifying the
number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased and identifying the
specific Options that are being exercised. From time to time the
Administrator may establish procedures relating to effecting such exercises.
No fractional shares shall be issued as a result of exercising an Option. An
Option is exercisable during an Optionee's lifetime only by the Optionee or
Optionee's guardian or legal representative.
(d) PAYMENT OF OPTION PRICE. The purchase price for Options being
exercised must be paid in full at time of exercise. Payment shall be by cash
or check.

In addition, in order to enable the Company to meet any applicable foreign,
federal (including FICA), state and local withholding tax requirements, an
Optionee shall also be required to pay the amount of tax to be withheld. No
share of stock will be delivered to any Optionee until all such amounts have
been paid. In the event that withholding taxes are not paid within the
specified time period, to the extent permitted by law the Company shall have
the right, but not the obligation, to cause such withholding taxes to be
satisfied by reducing the number of shares of stock deliverable or by
offsetting such withholding taxes against amounts otherwise due from the
Company to the Optionee. If withholding taxes are paid by reduction of the
number of shares deliverable to Optionee, such shares shall be valued at the
Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise.
(e) EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. All Options then held by the
Optionee which are exercisable at the date of termination shall continue to
be exercisable by the Optionee, or, if applicable, Optionee's estate, until
the earlier of 30 days after such date or the expiration of such Options in
accordance with their terms, unless the Administrator shall determine
otherwise. All Options which are not exercisable at such date shall
automatically terminate and lapse, unless the Administrator shall determine
otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if exercise of an Option during
the 30-day period described in the previous sentence would subject the
Optionee to liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, such Option
shall be exercisable until the earliest of (a) its normal termination date
and (b) seven months after the last transaction in Common Stock by the
Optionee prior to termination.
(f) MISCONDUCT. In the event that the Administrator determines in good
faith that an Optionee has (i) used for profit, or materially harmed the
Company by disclosing to unauthorized persons, confidential information or
trade secrets of the Company, (ii) materially breached any contract with, or
materially violated any fiduciary obligation to, the Company, or (iii)
engaged in unlawful trading in the securities of RHII or of another company
based on nonpublic information gained as a result of that Optionee's
employment with the Company, then, effective as of the date notice of such
misconduct is given by the Administrator to the Optionee, that Optionee
shall forfeit all rights to any unexercised Options granted under the Plan
and all of that Optionee's outstanding Options shall automatically terminate
and lapse, unless the Administrator shall determine otherwise.
(g) NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. During an Optionee's lifetime, his
or her Options shall not be transferrable and shall only be exercisable by
the Optionee and any purported transfer shall be null and void. Options are
not transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
7. AMENDMENT. The Administrator may, at any time, amend, suspend or
terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, provided that no such action shall
adversely affect any rights or obligations with respect to any grants
theretofore made hereunder. The Administrator may amend the terms and conditions
of outstanding Options, provided, however, that (i) no such amendment shall be
adverse to the holders of the Options, (ii) no such amendment shall extend the
term of an Option, and (iii) the amended terms of the Option would be permitted
under this Plan.
8. FOREIGN EMPLOYEES. Without amending the Plan, the Administrator may
grant Options to eligible employees who are foreign nationals on such terms and
conditions different from those specified in this Plan as may in the judgment of
the Administrator be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of
the purposes of the Plan, and, in furtherance of such purposes the Administrator
may make such modifications, amendments, procedures, subplans and the like as
may be necessary or advisable to comply with provisions of laws in other
countries in which the Company operates or has employees.
9. REGISTRATION, LISTING AND QUALIFICATION OF SHARES. Each Option shall be
subject to the requirement that if at any time the Administrator shall determine
that the registration, listing or qualification of the shares covered thereby
upon any securities exchange or under any foreign, federal, state or local law,
or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or
3
<PAGE>
desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Option
or the purchase of shares thereunder, no such Option may be exercised unless and
until such registration, listing, qualification, consent or approval shall have
been effected or obtained free of any condition not acceptable to the
Administrator. Any person exercising an Option shall make such representations
and agreements and furnish such information as the Administrator may request to
assure compliance with the foregoing or any other applicable legal requirements.
RHII shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause shares issued hereunder to
be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
10. BUY OUT OF OPTION GAINS. The Administrator shall have the right to
elect, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the holder thereof
(subject to the last sentence of this paragraph), to cancel the exercisable
portion of any Option and pay to the Optionee the excess of the Fair Market
Value of the shares of Common Stock covered by such cancelled portion of the
Option over the Option Price of such cancelled portion of the Option at the date
the Administrator provides written notice (the "Buy Out Notice") of its
intention to exercise such right. Buy outs pursuant to this provision shall be
effected by RHII as promptly as possible after the date of the Buy Out Notice.
Payments of buy out amounts may be made in cash, in shares of Common Stock, or
partly in cash and partly in Common Stock, as the Administrator deems advisable.
To the extent payment is made in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares
shall be determined by dividing the amount of the payment to be made by the Fair
Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the date of the Buy Out Notice. In no
event shall RHII be required to deliver a fractional share of Common Stock in
satisfaction of this buy out provision. Payments of such buy out amounts shall
be made net of any applicable foreign, federal (including FICA), state and local
withholding taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no buy out may be effected (a)
until at least six months after the Grant Date of the subject option, and (b)
without the consent of the Optionee if the Optionee is generally required to
file reports pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to his
transactions in the Common Stock.
11. ADJUSTMENT FOR CHANGE IN STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN. In the event of any
change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock split,
stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange
of shares or other similar corporate change, such equitable adjustments may be
made in the Plan and the Options granted hereunder as the Administrator
determines are necessary or appropriate, including, if necessary, an adjustment
in the number of shares and prices per share applicable to Options then
outstanding and in the number of shares which are reserved for issuance under
the Plan. Any such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes
of the Plan.
12. NO RIGHTS TO OPTIONS OR EMPLOYMENT. No employee or other person shall
have any claim or right to be granted an Option under the Plan. Receipt of an
Option under the Plan shall not give an employee any rights to receive any other
grant under the Plan. An Optionee shall have no rights to or interest in any
Option except as set forth herein. Neither the Plan nor any action taken
hereunder shall be construed as giving any employee any right to be retained in
the employ of the Company.
13. RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER. An Optionee under the Plan shall have no rights
as a holder of Common Stock with respect to Options granted hereunder, unless
and until certificates for shares of Common Stock are issued to such Optionee.
14. OTHER ACTIONS. This Plan shall not restrict the authority of the
Administrator or of RHII, for proper corporate purposes, to grant or assume
stock options, other than under the Plan, to or with respect to any employee or
other person.
15. COSTS AND EXPENSES. Except as provided in Section 6(d) hereof with
respect to taxes, the costs and expenses of administering the Plan shall be
borne by RHII and shall not be charged to any grant nor to any employee
receiving a grant.

<PAGE>
16. PLAN UNFUNDED. The Plan shall be unfunded. Except for reserving a
sufficient number of authorized shares to the extent required by law to meet the
requirements of the Plan, RHII shall not be required to establish any special or
separate fund or to make any other segregation of assets to assure the payment
of any grant under the Plan.
17. GOVERNING LAW. This Plan shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.
18. INDEMNIFICATION OF ADMINISTRATOR. Members of the group constituting
the Administrator shall be indemnified for actions with respect to the Plan to
the fullest extent permitted by the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
and the By-laws of the Company and by the terms of any indemnification agreement
that has been or shall be entered into from time to time between the Company and
any such persons.
19. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Plan shall become effective upon adoption by the
Board of Directors of RHII. If stockholder approval is required (a) under the
General Rules and Regulations promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act
in order to exempt any transaction contemplated by this Plan from Section 16(b)
of the Exchange Act, (b) by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, if RHII
Common Stock is listed thereon, or (c) by the rules of NASDAQ pertaining to the
National Market System, if RHII Common Stock is quoted thereon, then this Plan
shall be submitted to the stockholders of RHII for consideration at the next
annual meeting of stockholders. The Administrator may make Options conditioned
on such approval, and any Option so made shall be effective as of the date of
grant.
