</TABLE>
As the above table shows, customer deposits represent the majority of
the Company's liabilities. The largest asset component is the loan portfolio,
which consists primarily of long-term mortgages. The disparity between the
repricing (maturity or interest rate change) of deposits and borrowings and the
repricing of mortgage loans and investments can have a material impact on the
Company's results of operations. The difference between the repricing
characteristics of assets and liabilities is commonly referred to as the gap.
The gap table on the following page shows that, as of March 31, 1996, the
Company's assets mature or reprice sooner than its liabilities. Consequently,
one would expect falling interest rates to lower the Company's earnings and
rising interest rates to increase the Company's earnings. However, the Company's
earnings are also affected by the built-in lag inherent in the Eleventh District
Cost of Funds Index (COFI), which is the benchmark the Company uses to determine
the rate on the great majority of its adjustable rate mortgages. Specifically,
there is a two-month delay in reporting the COFI because of the time required to
gather the data needed to compute the index. As a result, the current COFI
actually reflects the Eleventh District's cost of funds at the level it was two
months prior. Consequently, when the interest rate environment changes, the COFI
reporting lag causes assets to initially reprice more slowly than liabilities,
enhancing earnings when rates are falling and holding down income when rates
rise. In addition to the COFI reporting lag, other elements of ARM loans also
have an impact on earnings. These elements are the interest rate adjustment
frequency of ARM loans, interest rate caps or limits on individual rate changes,
interest rate floors, and introductory rates on new ARM loans.

CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) requires insured institutions,
such as World Savings and Loan Association (World or Association) and World
Savings Bank, a Federal Savings Bank (WFSB), to maintain a minimum amount of
cash and certain qualifying investments for liquidity purposes. The current
minimum requirement is equal to a monthly average of 5% of customer deposits and
short-term borrowings. For the months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, and
December 31, 1995, World's average regulatory liquidity ratios were 5.5%, 7%,
and 8%, respectively, consistently exceeding the requirement. For the months
ended March 31, 1996, and December 31, 1995, WFSB's average regulatory
liquidity ratios were 6%, consistently exceeding the requirement. The
level of the Company's investments position in excess of its liquidity
requirements at any time depends on liquidity needs.
At March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, the Company had
securities available for sale in the amount of $708 million, $1.3 billion, and
$902 million, respectively, including net unrealized gains on securities
available for sale of $116 million, $57 million, and $117 million, respectively.
At March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, the Company had no securities
held to maturity or for trading.
Included in the securities available for sale at March 31, 1996 and
1995, and December 31, 1995, were collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) in
the amount of $340 million, $620 million, and $408 million, respectively. The
Company holds CMOs on which both principal and interest are received. It does
not hold any interest-only or principal-only CMOs. At March 31, 1996, the
majority of the Company's CMOs were fixed-rate instruments with remaining terms
to maturity of five years or less, and qualified for inclusion in the regulatory
liquidity measurement.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
At March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, the Company had
mortgage-backed securities (MBS) held to maturity in the amount of $3.0 billion,
$1.1 billion, and $3.1 billion, respectively, including $2.2 billion of Federal
National Mortgage Association (FNMA) MBS subject to full credit recourse at
March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, the Company
had mortgage-backed securities available for sale in the amount of $270 million,
$317 million, and $283 million, respectively, including net unrealized gains on
MBS available for sale of $13 million, $12 million, and $14 million,
respectively. At March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, the Company had
no trading MBS.
During 1995, the Company securitized $2.3 billion of adjustable rate
mortgages (ARMs) into FNMA COFI-indexed MBS, to be used as collateral for
borrowings. These securities are subject to full credit recourse to the Company.
The Company has the ability and intent to hold these MBS until maturity.
Accordingly, these MBS are classified as held to maturity.
Repayments of MBS during the first quarter of 1996 were $105 million
compared to $25 million in the same period of 1995. The increase in repayments
on MBS during the first three months of 1996 as compared to the first three
months of 1995 was primarily due to the increase in MBS that resulted through
the securitization of ARM loans into FNMA MBS as well as an increase in
prepayments on the underlying mortgages.

LOAN PORTFOLIO
LOAN VOLUME
New loan originations for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, amounted to
$1.2 billion compared to $1.8 billion for the same period in 1995. The decline
in loan volume in the first quarter of 1996 was due to interest rate decreases
which brought down the price of new fixed-rate mortgage loans, making
competition from fixed-rate lenders more intense for adjustable rate mortgage
lenders, such as the Company. Loans originated for sale amounted to $194 million
for the first three months of 1996 compared to $3 million for the first three
months of 1995. The increase in for sale originations was driven by a higher
demand for fixed-rate mortgages. The Company continues to sell most of its
fixed-rate originations. Refinanced loans constituted 43% of new loan
originations for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to 31% for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995.
The Company has lending operations in 24 states. The primary source of
mortgage origination is loans secured by residential properties in California.
For the three months ended March 31, 1996, 53% of total loan originations were
on residential properties in California compared to 55% for the same period in
1995. The five largest states, other than California, for originations for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, were Texas, Florida, Colorado, Illinois, and
Arizona with a combined total of 28% of total originations. The percentage of
the total loan portfolio (including mortgage-backed securities with recourse)
that is comprised of residential loans in California was 73% at March 31, 1996
compared to 76% at March 31, 1995, and 73% at December 31, 1995.
The tables on the following two pages show the Company's loan portfolio by
state at March 31, 1996 and 1995.

(a) The Company has no commercial loans.
(b) Loans amounting to $288 million were securitized with full recourse
into FNMA mortgage-backed securities during the first quarter of 1995. The March
31, 1995 balances of these mortgage-backed securities are reflected in the
amounts above.
<PAGE>
The Company continues to emphasize ARM loans with interest rates that
change periodically in accordance with movements in specified indexes. The
portion of the mortgage portfolio (excluding MBS) composed of rate-sensitive
loans was 90% at March 31, 1996, March 31, 1995, and December 31, 1995. Because
of increased competition from fixed-rate mortgages, the Company's ARM
originations constituted approximately 77% of new mortgage loans made in the
first quarter of 1996 compared to 99% in the first three months of 1995.
The weighted average maximum lifetime cap rate on the Company's ARM
loan portfolio (including MBS with recourse) was 13.08%, or 5.64% above the
actual weighted average rate at March 31, 1996, versus 13.25%, or 6.07%
above the weighted average rate at March 31, 1995.
Approximately $5.2 billion of the Company's loans (including MBS with
recourse) have terms that state that the interest rate may not fall below a
lifetime floor set at the time of origination. As of March 31, 1996, $632
million of these ARM loans had reached their rate floors. The weighted average
floor rate on these loans was 7.79% at March 31, 1996 and 7.74% at March 31,
1995. Without the floor, the average yield on these loans would have been 7.28%
at March 31, 1996 and 7.02% at March 31, 1995.
Loan repayments consist of monthly loan amortization, loan payoffs, and
refinances. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, loan repayments were $730
million compared to $438 million in the same period of 1995. The increase in
loan repayments was primarily due to higher mortgage payoffs and higher
refinances within the portfolio.
MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" (SFAS
122). SFAS 122 amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 65,
"Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking Activities," to require that any
financial institution participating in the secondary mortgage market recognize,
as separate assets, rights to service mortgage loans for others when those
rights are acquired through either the purchase or origination of mortgage loans
which are subsequently sold or securitized. SFAS 122 also requires that
financial institutions participating in the secondary mortgage market assess
capitalized mortgage servicing rights based on the fair value of those rights on
a disaggregated basis. The Company adopted SFAS 122 on January 1, 1996. For the
first quarter of 1996, the Company has recognized a $4.7 million gain on the
sale of loans due to the capitalization of servicing rights under SFAS 122.
After amortization, the balance at March 31, 1996 of the capitalized servicing
rights was $4.6 million.
ASSET QUALITY
One measure of the soundness of the Company's portfolio is its ratio of
nonperforming assets (NPAs) to total assets. Nonperforming assets included
non-accrual loans (loans that are 90 days or more past due) and real estate
acquired through foreclosure. No interest is recognized on non-accrual loans.
The Company's troubled debt restructured (TDRs) is made up of loans on which
delinquent loan payments have been capitalized or on which temporary interest
rate reductions have been made, primarily to customers negatively impacted by
adverse economic conditions.
The table on the following page shows the components of the Company's
nonperforming assets and TDRs, and the ratios to total assets.

</TABLE>
The increase in NPAs during 1996 reflects the continued weakness in the
California housing market and national trends toward higher home mortgage
delinquencies. The Company continues to closely monitor all delinquencies and
takes appropriate steps to protect its interests. Interest foregone on
non-accrual loans is fully-reserved and amounted to $6 million in the first
quarter of 1996 compared to $5 million in the same period of 1995. Interest
foregone on TDRs amounted to $368 thousand for the three months ended March 31,
1996, compared to $481 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 1995.

(a) Non-accruals loans are 90 days or more past due and have no unpaid
interest accrued.
(b) Loans amounting to $288 million were securitized with full recourse
into FNMA mortgage-backed securities during the first quarter of 1995. The March
31, 1995 balance of the related nonperforming assets are reflected in the

The Company provides specific valuation allowances for losses on loans
when impaired, including loans securitized into MBS with recourse or loans
sold with recourse, and on real estate owned when any significant and
permanent decline in value is identified. The Company also utilizes a
methodology, based on trends in the basic portfolio, for monitoring and
estimating loan losses that is based on both historical experience in the loan
portfolio and factors reflecting current economic conditions. This approach
uses a database that identifies losses on loans and foreclosed real estate
from past years to the present, broken down by year of origination, type of
loan, and geographical area. Management is then able to estimate a range of
general loss allowances to cover losses in the portfolio. In addition,
periodic reviews are made of major loans and real estate owned, and major
lending areas are regularly reviewed to determine potential problems. Where
indicated, valuation allowances are established or adjusted. In estimating
possible losses, consideration is given to the estimated sale price, cost of
refurbishing, payment of delinquent taxes, cost of disposal, and cost of
holding the property. Additions to and reductions from the allowances are
reflected in current earnings.
The table below shows the changes in the allowance for loan losses for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.

CUSTOMER DEPOSITS
Customer deposits increased during the first quarter of 1996 by $143
million, including interest credited of $214 million. In the first three months
of 1995, customer deposits increased $1.1 billion, including interest credited
of $188 million, excluding the effect of the sale of seven Colorado branches
with balances totaling $153 million and the acquisition of a one-branch New
Jersey savings institution with $48 million in deposits. During the first
quarter of 1996, rates on certificates of deposit were lower than a year ago
which led to a slowdown in the savings inflows compared to the first three
months of 1995.

ADVANCES FROM FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANKS
The Company uses borrowings from the FHLB, also known as "advances," to
supplement cash flow and to provide funds for loan origination activities. FHLB
advances amounted to $6.5 billion at March 31, 1996, compared to $7.0 billion
and $6.4 billion at March 31, 1995, and December 31, 1995, respectively.
SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE
The Company borrows funds through transactions in which securities are
sold under agreements to repurchase (Reverse Repos). Reverse Repos are entered
into with selected major government securities dealers, large banks, and the
Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco, typically using MBS from the Company's
portfolio. Reverse Repos with dealers, banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of
San Francisco amounted to $2.1 billion, $367 million, and $1.8 billion at March
31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, respectively. The $2.1 billion balance
at March 31, 1996, included $1.5 billion in Federal Home Loan Bank of San
Francisco MBS Reverse Repos with maturities ranging from 1996 to 1998.
OTHER BORROWINGS
At March 31, 1996, Golden West, at the holding company level, had a
total of $1.1 billion of subordinated debt issued and outstanding. As of March
31, 1996, the Company's subordinated debt securities were rated A3 and A- by
Moody's Investors Service (Moody's) and Standard & Poor's Corporation (S&P),
respectively. At March 31, 1996, Golden West had on file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the sale of up to $300
million of subordinated notes.
World currently has on file a shelf registration with the OTS for the
issuance of $2.0 billion of unsecured medium-term notes, all of which was
available for issuance at March 31, 1996. World had medium-term notes
outstanding under prior registrations with principal amounts of $890 million at
March 31, 1996, compared to $1.9 billion at March 31, 1995, and $1.6 billion at
December 31, 1995. As of March 31, 1996, World's medium-term notes were rated A1
and A+ by Moody's and S&P, respectively.
World also has on file a registration statement with the OTS for the
sale of up to $300 million of subordinated notes and, at March 31, 1996, the
full amount was available for issuance. As of March 31, 1996, World had issued a
total of $200 million of subordinated notes, which were rated A2 and A by
Moody's and S&P, respectively. The subordinated notes are included in World's
risk-based regulatory capital as Supplementary Capital.
<PAGE>
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company's stockholders' equity increased during the first three
months of 1996 and 1995 as a result of retained earnings. The increase was
partially offset by the $17 million cost of the repurchase of Company stock and
by a decline in market values of securities available for sale since December
31, 1995. Unrealized gains on securities and MBS available for sale included in
stockholders' equity at March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, were $75
million, $41 million, and $76 million, respectively.
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123) on January 1, 1996.
SFAS 123 establishes accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair value
based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation plans. Under
SFAS 123, the Company can either adopt the new fair value based accounting
method or continue the intrinsic value based method and provide pro forma
disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the accounting provisions
of SFAS 123 had been adopted. The Company adopted only the disclosure
requirements of SFAS 123; therefore such adoption has no effect on the Company's
March 31, 1996 consolidated financial statements.
During periods of low asset growth, the Company's capital ratios may
build to levels well in excess of the amounts necessary to meet regulatory
capital requirements. Golden West's Board of Directors regularly reviews
alternative uses of excess capital, including faster growth and acquisitions. At
times, the Board has determined that repurchase of common stock is a wise use of
excess capital.
Through three separate actions, Golden West's Board of Directors
authorized the purchase by the Company of up to 12.2 million shares of Golden
West's common stock. As of March 31, 1996, 6.2 million shares had been
repurchased and retired at a cost of $243 million since October 28, 1993, of
which 330 thousand were purchased and retired at a cost of $17 million during
the first three months of 1996. Dividends from World Savings are expected to
continue to be the major source of funding for the stock repurchase program. The
repurchase of Golden West stock is not intended to have a material impact on the
normal liquidity of the Company.
In March 1996, World paid a $165 million dividend to Golden West.
The Company has on file a shelf registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission to issue up to two million shares of its
preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, may
have varying provisions and designations, and may be represented by depository
shares. The preferred stock is not convertible into common stock. No preferred
stock has yet been issued under the registration. The Company's preferred stock
has been preliminarily rated a2 by Moody's.
REGULATORY CAPITAL
The OTS requires federally insured institutions, such as World and
WFSB, to meet certain minimum capital requirements. The table on the following
page shows World's current regulatory capital ratios and compares them to the
current OTS minimum requirements at March 31, 1996 and 1995.

In addition, institutions whose exposure to interest rate risk as
determined by the OTS is deemed to be above normal may be required to hold
additional risk-based capital. The OTS has determined that the Association does
not have above-normal exposure to interest rate risk. The OTS has not yet
analyzed WFSB's interest rate risk exposure, although it is the Company's belief
that WFSB does not have above-normal exposure to interest rate risk.
The OTS has adopted rules based upon five capital tiers: well
capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized. The determination of whether
an association falls into a certain classification depends primarily on its
capital ratios. The tables on the following pages summarized the capital ratios
for each of the five classifications and shows that World and WFSB met the "well
capitalized" standard as of March 31, 1996.

An important determinant of the Company's earnings is its primary
spread -- the difference between its yield on earning assets and its cost of
funds. The table below shows the components of the Company's spread at March 31,
1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995.

========== ======== ==========
</TABLE>
The Company's primary spread is, to some degree, dependent on changes
in interest rates because the Company's liabilities tend to respond somewhat
more rapidly to rate movements than its assets, which are primarily adjustable
rate mortgages. Most of the Company's ARMs have interest rates that change in
accordance with an index based on the cost of deposits and borrowings of savings
institutions that are members of the FHLB of San Francisco (the COFI). In
general, the repricing of COFI ARM portfolios tends to lag liability interest
rate changes because of certain loan features which restrain monthly adjustments
and because the COFI tends to trail changes in liability costs due to the
existence of a two-month reporting lag. During the first quarter of 1996, the
effect of the generally declining interest rates during the second half of 1995
and early in 1996, led to a 17 basis point reduction in the Company's cost of
funds. During the same period, the yield on the loan portfolio fell by only five
basis points allowing for a 12 basis point increase in the Company's spread
since yearend 1995.
The table on the following page shows the Company's revenues and
expenses as a percentage of total revenues for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995, in order to focus on the changes in interest income between years

INTEREST RATE SWAPS AND CAPS
The Company enters into interest rate swaps and caps as a part of its
interest rate risk management strategy. Such instruments are entered into solely
to alter the repricing characteristics of designated assets and liabilities. The
Company does not hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest rate swap and cap activity decreased net interest income by $4
million for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to a decrease of $9
million for the same period in 1995.

4.61% to 9.68% and the range of fixed interest rates paid on swap contracts was
5.38% to 9.14%.
<PAGE>
INTEREST ON LOANS
In the first quarter of 1996, interest on loans was higher than in the
comparable 1995 period by $51 million or 10.5%. The increase in the first
quarter of 1996 was due to a $719 million increase in the average portfolio
balance and a 54 basis point increase in the average portfolio yield.
INTEREST ON MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
In the first quarter of 1996 interest on mortgage-backed securities was
higher than in the comparable 1995 period by $36 million or 141.2%. The 1996
increase was due primarily to a $2.1 billion increase in the average portfolio
balance, which was partially offset by a 65 basis point decrease in the average
portfolio yield. The increase in the mortgage-backed securities portfolio, and
the lower average portfolio yield were primarily the result of the
securitization of adjustable-rate loans with recourse that began in March 1995,
as discussed on page 11.
INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS ON INVESTMENTS
The income earned on the investment portfolio fluctuates, depending
upon the volume outstanding and the yields available on short-term investments.
For the first quarter of 1996, interest and dividends on investments were $113
thousand or 0.3% lower than for the same period in 1995. The decrease was
primarily due to a 1 basis point decrease in the average portfolio yield and a
$341 million decrease in the average portfolio balance. These decreases were
partially offset by $4.4 million of interest income received on an income tax
refund in 1996.
INTEREST ON CUSTOMER DEPOSITS
In the first quarter of 1996, interest on customer deposits increased
by $29 million or 12.5% from the comparable period of 1995. The first quarter
increase was due to a $1.2 billion increase in the average deposit balance and a
23 basis point increase in the average cost of deposits.
INTEREST ON ADVANCES AND OTHER BORROWINGS
For the first quarter of 1996, interest on advances and other
borrowings increased by $17 million or 11.0% from the comparable period of
1995. The first quarter increase was primarily due to a $996 million increase in
the average balance, which was partially offset by a 7 basis point decrease in
the average cost of these borrowings.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses was $18.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1996, compared to $14.8 million for the same period in 1995. The
higher provision in 1996 reflects the increase in non-accrual loans, primarily
in California.
<PAGE>
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
For the first quarter of 1996, general and administrative expenses
(G&A) increased by $2.4 million or 3.1% from the comparable period in 1995. The
primary reasons for the increases in 1996 were growth in savings offices and
general inflation. G&A as a percentage of average assets on an annualized basis
was 0.92% for the first quarter compared to 0.96% for the same period in 1995.
DEPOSIT INSURANCE
Legislation to capitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF)
in order to bring it into parity with the FDIC's other insurance fund, the Bank
Insurance Fund (BIF) was not signed into law even though it passed both houses
of Congress in 1995. The legislation would have required an assessment of all
SAIF-insured institutions of approximately 80 basis points on their March 31,
1995, customer deposit balances. It is not clear when the disparity between SAIF
and BIF will be resolved, therefore, the exact impact on the Company of that
resolution is unknown at this time.
TAXES ON INCOME
The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting for income tax
purposes and for preparing its published financial statements. For financial
reporting purposes only, the Company uses purchase accounting in connection with
certain assets acquired through mergers. The purchase accounting portion of
income is not subject to tax.
Taxes As a percentage of earnings were 39.5% for the first three
months of 1996 compared to 38.9% for the first three months of 1995.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
World's principal sources of funds are cash flows generated from
earnings; customer deposits; loan repayments; borrowings from the FHLB; issuance
of medium-term notes; and debt collateralized by mortgages, MBS, or securities.
In addition, World has a number of other alternatives available to provide
liquidity or finance operations. These include borrowings from public offerings
of debt, sales of loans, negotiable certificates of deposit, issuances of
commercial paper, and borrowings from commercial banks. Furthermore, under
certain conditions, World may borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco to meet short-term cash needs. The availability of these funds will
vary depending upon policies of the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco, and the Federal Reserve Board. For a discussion of World's liquidity
positions at March 31, 1996, and 1995, and December 31, 1995, see the cash and
investments section on page 11.
<PAGE>
WFSB's principal sources of funds are cash flows generated from
earnings; customer deposits; loan repayments; borrowings from the FHLB;
investments from its parent; and debt collateralized by mortgages or securities.
In addition, WFSB has a number of other alternatives available to provide
liquidity or finance operations. These include sales of loans, negotiable
certificates of deposit, and borrowings from commercial banks. For a discussion
of WFSB's liquidity positions at March 31, 1996, and 1995, and December 31,
1995, see the cash and investments section on page 11.
The principal sources of funds for Golden West (the Parent) are
interest on investments, dividends from World, and the proceeds from the
issuance of debt and equity securities. Various statutory and regulatory
restrictions and tax considerations limit the amount of dividends World can pay.
The principal liquidity needs of Golden West are for payment of interest and
principal on subordinated debt securities, capital contributions to its insured
subsidiaries, dividends to stockholders, the purchase of Golden West stock (see
stockholders' equity section on page 22), and general and administrative
expenses. At March 31, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, Golden West's total
cash and investments amounted to $857 million (including a $700 million
short-term loan to World), $910 million, and $719 million, respectively.

EXHIBIT 10.1
Golden West Financial Corporation
Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Option Plan
(As Amended and Restated February 2, 1996)
ARTICLE I
GENERAL
1. Purpose.
This 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") is intended to increase
incentive and to encourage stock ownership on the part of (i) selected key
employees of Golden West Financial Corporation (the "Company") or of other
corporations which are or become subsidiaries of the Company, and (ii) certain
consultants, advisory board members, and other independent contractors who
provide services to the Company or its subsidiaries, but who are neither
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries nor directors of the Company
("consultants"). It is also the purpose of the Plan to provide such employees
and consultants with a proprietary interest, or to increase their proprietary
interest, in the Company and its subsidiaries, and to encourage them to remain
in the employ of and/or to increase their efforts on behalf of the Company or
its subsidiaries. It is intended that certain options granted pursuant to the
Plan shall constitute incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") ("incentive stock
options"), and that certain other options granted pursuant to the Plan shall not
constitute incentive stock options ("nonqualified stock options"). Prior to
February 2, 1996, the Plan was known as the 1987 Stock Option Plan.
2. Administration.
The Plan shall be administered by the Stock Option Committee (the
"Committee") of the Board of Directors of Golden West Financial Corporation (the
"Board"). The Committee shall from time to time at its discretion make
determinations with respect to the persons to whom options shall be granted and
the amount of such options. The Committee shall consist of not fewer than two
members of the Board. The Committee shall be comprised solely of Directors who
both are (i) "outside directors" under section 162(m) of the Code and (ii)
"disinterested persons" under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Rule 16b-3").
The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any provisions of
the Plan or of any option granted under it shall be final. No member of the
Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith
with respect to the Plan or any option granted under it.
3. Eligibility.
Subject to Section 2 of this Article I, the persons who shall be
eligible to receive options under the Plan shall be such persons selected by the
Committee from among the officers, key employees (including directors who are
also salaried employees of the Company) and consultants of the Company, as may
be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision of the Plan, consultants shall not be eligible to receive
incentive stock options.
Except where the context otherwise requires, the term "Company," as
used herein, shall include (i) Golden West Financial Corporation and (ii) [any
corporation or any other entity (including, but not limited to, partnerships and
joint ventures) controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Golden
West Financial Corporation (each a "subsidiary corporation")], and the terms
"officers, key employees and consultants of the Company," and words of similar
import, shall include officers, key employees and consultants of each such
subsidiary corporation, as well as officers, key employees and consultants of
Golden West Financial Corporation.
4. Shares of Stock Subject to the Plan.
The shares that may be issued under the Plan shall be authorized and
unissued or reacquired shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common
Stock"). The aggregate number of shares which may be issued under the Plan shall
not exceed 7,000,000 shares of Common Stock, unless an adjustment is required in
accordance with Article III.
<PAGE>
If an option expires or is cancelled for any reason without having been
fully exercised or vested, the number of shares subject to such option which
were not purchased or did not vest prior to such expiration or cancellation may
again be made subject to an option granted hereunder (to the same person or to a
different person).
5. Amendment of the Plan.
The Board, in its sole discretion, may amend or terminate the Plan, or
any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. However, if and to the extent
required to maintain the Plan's qualification under Rule 16b-3, any such
amendment shall be subject to stockholder approval. The amendment or termination
of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the option holder, alter or impair
any rights or obligations under any option theretofore granted to such
individual.
6. Term of Plan.
The Plan, as amended and restated herein, shall remain in effect until
amended or terminated by the Board in accordance with Section 5 of Article I.
However, without further stockholder approval, no option which is intended to be
an incentive stock option may be granted under the Plan after February 1, 2006.
7. Restrictions.
All options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the requirement
that, if at any time the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, that the
listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject to options granted
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 options
or the issuance, if any, or purchase of shares in connection therewith, such
options may not be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing,
registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or
obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee. 8.
Nonassignability.
9. Withholding Taxes.
Whenever shares of Common Stock are to be issued under the Plan, the
Company shall have the right to require the optionee to remit to the Company an
amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax
requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such
shares.
10. Definition of "Fair Market Value."
For the purposes of this Plan, the term "Fair Market Value," when used
in reference to the date of grant of an option or the date of surrender of
Common Stock in payment for the purchase of shares pursuant to the exercise of
an option, as the case may be, shall mean the closing sale price of the Common
Stock quoted on the Composite Tape for New York Stock Exchange--Listed Stocks,
as published in "The Wall Street Journal," or if no sale price was quoted on
such date, then as of the next preceding date on which such a sale price was
quoted. If the Common Stock is not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Fair
Market Value shall mean the mean between the highest and lowest sale prices on
the principal United States securities exchange registered under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 on which such stock is listed, as published in "The Wall
Street Journal" and determined by the Committee, or, if such stock is not listed
on any such securities exchange, the mean between the highest and lowest sale
prices or bid quotations with respect to a share of such stock on the date such
option is granted on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Automated Quotations System or any successor system or, if no such sale prices
or quotations are available, the Fair Market Value on the date in question of a
share of such stock as determined in good faith by the Committee.
<PAGE>
ARTICLE II
STOCK OPTIONS
1. Award of Stock Options.
Awards of stock options may be made under the Plan under all the terms
and conditions contained herein. However, the aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined as of the date of grant) of the stock with respect to which
incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by such officer or
key employee during any calendar year (under all incentive stock option plans of
the Company and its parent and subsidiary corporations) shall not exceed
$100,000. The nature of options under the foregoing sentence shall be determined
by taking options into account in the order in which they were granted. In no
event shall an option constitute an incentive stock option if, at the time such
option is granted, the terms of the option provide that it shall not constitute
an incentive stock option. The date on which any option is granted shall be the
date of the Committee's authorization of such grant or such later date as may be
determined by the Committee at the time such grant is authorized. 2. Term of
Options and Effect of Termination.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no option granted
under the Plan shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from
the date of its grant. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan, no incentive stock option granted under the Plan to a person who, at the
time such option is granted and in accordance with Section 424(d) of the Code,
owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company shall be exercisable after the expiration of
five (5) years from the date of its grant. 3. Terms and Conditions of Options.
Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by agreements
in such form as the Committee shall from time to time determine, which
agreements shall contain such terms and conditions as determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion and which also shall comply with the following
terms and conditions.
(A) Optionee's Agreement.
Each optionee shall agree to remain in the employ of and/or to render
to the Company his or her services for a period of two (2) years from the date
of the option, but such agreement shall not impose upon the Company any
obligation to retain the optionee in its employee and/or service for any period.
(B) Number of Shares and Type of Option.
Each option agreement shall state the number of shares to which the
option pertains and whether the option is intended to be an incentive stock
option or a nonqualified stock option. During any calendar year, no individual
shall be granted options covering more than 300,000 shares. An option which is
intended to be an incentive stock option may be granted only to an individual
who on the grant date is an employee of Golden West Financial Corporation or of
a corporation which constitutes a subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of
Section 424(f) of the Code) of Golden West Financial Corporation.
(C) Option Price.
Each option agreement shall state the option price per share (or the
method by which such price shall be computed). The option price per share shall
not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on
the date such option is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the option price
per share of an incentive stock option granted to a person who, on the date of
such grant and in accordance with Section 424(d) of the Code, owns stock
possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of
stock of the Company shall be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a
share of the Common Stock on the date that the option is granted.
(D) Medium and Time of Payment.
The option price shall be payable upon the exercise of an option in the
legal tender of the United States or, in the discretion of the Committee, (i) by
tendering previously acquired shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value at
the time of exercise equal to the total option price, or (ii) by any other means
which the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to both provide legal
consideration for the shares, and to be consistent with the purposes of the
Plan. Upon receipt of payment, the Company shall deliver to the optionee (or the
person entitled to exercise the option) a certificate or certificates for the
shares of Common Stock to which the option pertains.
<PAGE>
(E) Exercise of Options.
Each option shall state the time or times when it becomes exercisable,
which shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee may, in its
discretion, waive any vesting provisions contained in an option agreement.
To the extent that an option has become vested (except as provided in
Article III), and subject to the foregoing restrictions, it may be exercised in
whole or in such lesser amount as may be authorized by the option agreement;
provided, however, that no partial exercise of an option shall be for fewer than
fifty (50) shares of Common Stock. If exercised in part, the unexercised portion
of an option shall continue to be held by the optionee and may thereafter be
exercised as herein provided.
(F) Termination and Transfer of Options.
In connection with the grant of any option under the Plan, the
Committee may provide in the option agreement for the termination of all or any
portion of an option under certain circumstances, including, without limitation,
termination of the recipient's employment or service as a result of resignation,
retirement, disability or death, or for cause, and may distinguish among various
causes of termination as the Committee deems appropriate. In addition, the
Committee may provide, through an option agreement or otherwise, that in the
event an optionee's employment (or other service for the Company) is terminated,
(i) such optionee's options may be exercised (by the optionee or, if
appropriate, his or her beneficiary or personal representative) for specified
periods thereafter within the option period, or (ii) to the extent not fully
exercisable or otherwise vested on the termination date, such optionee's options
may continue to become exercisable within the option period.
ARTICLE III
RECAPITALIZATION AND REORGANIZATIONS
The number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Plan, and the
number of shares and price per share of each outstanding option shall be
proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock resulting from a subdivision or
consolidation of shares or the payment of a stock dividend, or any other
increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.
If the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any merger or
consolidation, each outstanding option shall pertain to and apply to the
securities to which a holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock that
are subject to that option would have been entitled. A dissolution or
liquidation of the Company or a merger or consolidation in which the Company is
not the surviving corporation (a "Terminating Transaction") shall cause each
outstanding option to terminate, unless the agreement of merger or consolidation
shall otherwise provide; provided, however, that each optionee in the event of a
Terminating Transaction which will cause his or her option to terminate shall
have the right immediately prior to such Terminating Transaction to exercise
such option in whole or in part, subject to every limitation on the
exercisability of such option, other than any vesting provisions not required by
the Code.
To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or
securities of the Company, such adjustments shall be made by the Committee,
whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.
The grant of an option pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way
the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications,
reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge or
to consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate or sell, or transfer all or any part of
its business or assets.
<PAGE>
ARTICLE IV
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
1. Rights as a Stockholder.
An optionee or a transferee of an option shall have no rights as a
stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares covered by an option until
the date of the receipt of payment (including any amounts required by the
Company pursuant to Section 9 of Article I) by the Company. No adjustment shall
be made as to any option for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in
cash, securities or other property) or distributions or other rights for which
the record date is prior to such date, except as provided in Article III. 2.
Other Provisions.
The option agreements authorized under the Plan shall contain such
other provisions, including, without limitation, restrictions upon the exercise
of the option or restrictions required by any applicable securities laws, as the
Committee shall deem advisable. 3. Application of Funds.
The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Common Stock
pursuant to the exercise of options will be used for general corporate purposes.
4. No Obligation to Exercise Option.
he granting of an option shall impose no obligation upon the optionee
or a transferee of the option to exercise such option.
