 applicable to each participant. Generally, participants become fully vested with respect to the employer contributions upon completion of three years of service, attainment of age 65, death, complete disability or as required pursuant to the terms of the applicable collective bargaining agreement.

#### Benefit Payments
Participants who attain normal retirement age shall be entitled to payment of the balance in their account. Participants who remain employed after attainment of normal retirement age shall continue to participate under the same terms and conditions as applied prior to reaching normal retirement age. Participants are required to begin receiving distributions no later than the April 1 following the later of the year in which they retire from the Company or the year in which the participant turns age 73.

The beneficiary or beneficiaries of deceased participants shall be entitled to payment of the participants' account balance within a reasonable period of time after the participants' death.

Upon total and permanent disability, participants shall be entitled to payment of the balance in their account within a reasonable period of time after termination of employment.

Upon participants' termination of employment for reasons other than as specified above, participants are entitled to payment of their vested account balance. If the vested value of the participants' account is $1,000 (applied separately to Roth and non-Roth balances) or less, payment will automatically be made in a single lump sum. If the vested value of the participants' Roth balances or non-Roth balances is greater than $1,000 and does not exceed $5,000, the Plan Administrator will automatically roll over the Roth balances or non-Roth balances to a separate Fidelity IRA. If the vested value of the participants' account is more than $5,000, the participant must contact the Plan Administrator to request a distribution.

Eligible participants may request a withdrawal of all or a portion of their vested account while still working for the Company in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, subject to certain limitations and tax penalties. Different withdrawal rules apply to different Plan accounts.

#### Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants may receive a loan from the Plan in accordance with the policy established by the Plan Sponsor. Any such loan or loans shall not exceed the lesser of 50% of the participants' vested account balance or $50,000 reduced by the participants' highest outstanding loan balance from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day before the loan is made. The Plan Administrator shall establish the maximum maturity period that will be permitted to prevent the loan from being treated as a distribution. Plan provisions require that all loans must be paid back within 60 months
