Article 1. General Provisions
Section 1.1.    Purpose.
This Plan is designed to restore benefits that would have accrued under the
Pension Plan but are restricted due to the limits on compensation imposed by
Sections 415 and 401(a)(17) of the Code and to provide supplemental retirement
benefits to senior executives in management positions selected by the Committee.
Benefits provided under the Plan are structured to facilitate an orderly
transition within the ranks of senior management and to provide for an equitable
retirement benefit for such individuals consistent with competitive conditions
in the marketplace.
Section 1.2.    History of the Plan.
(a)
Effective June 19, 2001, the Company amended and restated the Plan. The terms of
the Plan, as set forth in the 2001 restatement, continue to apply to
Grandfathered Benefits, which are not subject to Section 409A of the Code, and
are set forth in Appendix A of the current restatement.

(b)
On December 24, 2004, the Company adopted a resolution to amend the Plan to the
extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. As part of this
resolution, the Company undertook to administer the Plan in accordance with a
reasonable interpretation of Section 409A of the Code. This resolution was
effective January 1, 2005.

(c)
In accordance with the December 24, 2004, resolution and amendment, the Plan has
been operated in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the
applicable guidance since January 1, 2005.

considered “willful” for purposes of this definition if the Employee reasonably

constitute a “change in ownership,” “change in effective control,” or “change in
the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Code, Employees shall vest in their Plan benefits
as provided in Section 3.8, but such event shall not be treated as a Benefit

Article 3.     Eligibility, Benefit Amounts and Vesting
Section 3.1.    Eligibility.
(a)
An Employee shall only be eligible for coverage under this Plan if such Employee
has reached age 50 and is a senior executive in a management position, and
Employee’s benefit under the Pension Plan is reduced by Section 401(a)(17) or
Section 415 of the Code . An Employee shall only be eligible for a Program under
Section 3.3, Section 3.4, Section 3.5, or Section 3.7 if the Employee is
selected to participate in such a Program by the Committee.

(b)
In selecting an Employee for coverage under the Plan, the Committee shall
specify whether the amount of the Employee’s benefit under the Plan shall be
determined under the “Senior Executive Program” as provided in Section 3.3, the
“Executive Program” as provided in Section 3.4, the “Foreign Service Senior
Executive Program” as provided in Section 3.5, “Management Program” as provided
in Section 3.6 of the Plan, or a “Special Program” as provided in Section 3.7 of
the Plan (each such benefit, a “Program”), and such selection shall be evidenced
by a Participation Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Employee shall be
eligible for a benefit under more than one Program with respect to the same
period of service.

Section 3.2.    Special Rules for Calculating Benefits.
(a)
For purposes of calculating an Employee’s benefit under this Article 3, the fact
that the Employee would not be able to commence payment under the Pension Plan
(or a pension or retirement plan provided by a subsidiary or affiliate of the
Company located outside the United States which formerly employed the Employee)
on the Benefit Commencement Date because he would not yet have reached a certain
age on the Benefit Commencement Date shall be disregarded. In such
circumstances, the value of the benefit under the Pension Plan (or applicable
non-U.S. plan) on the Benefit Commencement Date shall be the actuarial
equivalent of the benefit under such plan calculated as if it were payable on
the Benefit Commencement Date using actuarial assumptions (including early
retirement factors) as determined by the Committee.

(b)
For purposes of calculating an Employee’s benefit under Sections 3.3, 3.4, or
3.5, the term “annual bonus” shall not include any payment made to an Employee
pursuant to a cash-based long-term incentive award.

Section 3.3.    Senior Executive Program Benefit.
(a)
Employees Who Participated in Pension Plan Before December 1, 2001.

For an Employee who has been selected by the Committee to receive benefits under

If an Employee’s benefit on his Benefit Commencement Date would be the actuarial

Service or Disability in any form permitted under Section 4.3(a) that is treated
as an actuarially equivalent life annuity (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §
1.409A-2(b)(2)(ii)(B)) with respect to benefit that he would have received under
the single life annuity form of payment. An Employee shall not be permitted to
change his form of benefit after his Benefit Commencement Date.

(b)
Changes to Form of Payment. An Employee may file an election to change his time
of payment upon a Separation from Service or Disability to an alternate time of
payment permitted by the Committee or to change his form of payment upon a
Separation from Service or Disability to a form of payment permitted under
Section 4.3(a) that is not treated as an actuarially equivalent life annuity
(within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(ii)(B)) with respect to the
form of benefit that he would have received under Section 4.1(a) or Section
4.1(b), provided that such change is made at the time and in the manner
designated by the Committee, and subject to the following conditions:

(1)
the election to change the time or form of payment shall not take effect until
twelve (12) months after the election is made;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(2)
the election to change the time or form of payment must be filed at least 12
months prior to the date on which payments to the Employee are otherwise
scheduled to commence; and

(3)
the first payment with respect to which such election to change the time or form
of payment is made must be deferred for a period of 5 years from the date such
payment would otherwise have been made.

An Employee may file separate elections to change the time or form of payment
for payments upon a Separation from Service and Disability. For purposes of this
Section 4.5(b), a series of installment payments over a period of five years or
less shall be treated as a single payment, and an election between actuarially
equivalent life annuities shall be permitted at any time permitted under Section
409A of the Code.
Section 4.6.    Beneficiary in the Event of Death.
Upon the death of an Employee eligible for coverage under the Plan before the
Employee’s Benefit Commencement Date, the surviving spouse of such Employee, if
any, shall be paid a benefit equal to 50% of the benefit the Employee would have
been entitled to under the Plan had he experienced a Separation from Service on
the day immediately preceding his death. If the Employee dies before age 55, the
surviving spouse’s benefit shall commence payment on the first day of the month
following the date on which the Employee would have reached age 55, and the
surviving spouse’s benefit shall be calculated as if the Employee had reached
age 55, but based on the Employee’s actual compensation and years of service as
of his date of death. If death occurs after the Employee has begun to receive
payment of his benefit under the Plan, the beneficiary shall receive any benefit
to which he is entitled under the form in which the benefit was being paid. If
the Employee is unmarried and has not yet commenced his or her benefit at the
time of the Employee’s death, the Employee’s beneficiaries, heirs, or estate
shall not be entitled to a benefit under the Plan.
Article 5.     Administration of the Plan
Section 5.1.    Designation of Committee.
This Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors or the Management Committee of the Company, as the case may be. The
Compensation Committee reviews and approves the participation and benefits for
the Company’s “executive officers,” as defined in the rules promulgated under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any other Employees that it
designates. The Management Committee reviews and approves the participation and
benefits for all other executives. Members of the Management Committee may
participate in this Plan.
Section 5.2.    Authority of Committee.
The Committee shall have the discretion and authority to (a) make, amend,
interpret, and enforce all appropriate rules and regulations for the
administration of this Plan and (b) decide or resolve

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

any and all questions including interpretations of this Plan and facts that are
relevant to the administration of the Plan, as may arise in connection with the
Plan. Any individual serving on the Committee who is a participant shall not
vote or act on any matter relating solely to himself or herself. When making a
determination or calculation, the Committee shall be entitled to rely on
information furnished by an Employee, the Company or a member of the Affiliated
Group.
Section 5.3.    Agents.
In the administration of this Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, employ
or designate agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees
fit (including acting through a duly appointed representative) and may from time
to time consult with counsel who may be counsel to the Company.
Section 5.4.    Binding Effect of Decisions.
The decision or action of the Committee with respect to any question arising out
of or in connection with the administration, interpretation and application of
the Plan and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee hereunder
shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest
in the Plan.
Section 5.5.    Indemnity of Committee.
The Company and each member of the Affiliated Group shall indemnify and hold
harmless the members of the Committee, and any employee to whom duties of the
Committee may be delegated, against any and all claims, losses, damages,
expenses or liabilities arising from any action or failure to act with respect
to this Plan, except in the case of willful misconduct by the Committee or any
of its members or any such employee, in which case the member(s) or employee(s)
who engaged in the misconduct shall not be eligible for indemnification.
Section 5.6.    Employer Information.
To enable the Committee to perform its functions, each member of the Affiliated
Group shall supply full and timely information to the Committee on all matters
relating to the compensation of its Employees, the date and circumstances of the
Disability, death or Separation from Service of its Employees, and such other
pertinent information as the Committee may reasonably require.
Section 5.7.    Finality of Decisions.
Any actions taken hereunder, including any valuation of the amount, or
designation of a recipient, or any payment to be made hereunder, shall be
binding and conclusive on all persons for all purposes.

Article 6.     Claims Procedures
Section 6.1.    Presentation of Claim.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any Employee or beneficiary of a deceased Employee (such Employee or beneficiary
being referred to below as a “Claimant”) may deliver to the Committee a written
claim for a determination with respect to the amounts distributable to such
Claimant from the Plan. If such a claim relates to the contents of a notice
received by the Claimant, the claim must be made within thirty (30) days after
such notice was received by the Claimant. The claim must state with
particularity the determination desired by the Claimant. All other claims must
be made within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date on which the event that
caused the claim to arise occurred. The claim must state with particularity the
determination desired by the Claimant.
Section 6.2.    Notification of Decision.
The Committee shall consider a Claimant’s claim and shall notify the Claimant in
writing or by electronic means:
(a)
that the Claimant’s requested determination has been made, and that the claim
has been allowed in full; or

(b)
that the Committee has reached a conclusion contrary, in whole or in part, to
the Claimant’s requested determination, and in that event, such notice shall set
forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant:

(1)
the specific reason(s) for the denial of the claim, or any part of it;

(2)
specific reference(s) to pertinent provisions of the Plan upon which such denial
was based;

(3)
a description of any additional material or information necessary for the
Claimant to perfect the claim, and an explanation of why such material or
information is necessary; and

(4)
an explanation of the review procedures and the time limits applicable to such
procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil
action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination
on review.

Any such notice shall be provided within 90 days after receipt of the claim by
the Plan, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for
processing the claim for up to a maximum of an additional 90 days. The Claimant
will receive written notification if any such extension is necessary.
Section 6.3.    Review of a Denied Claim.
Within sixty (60) days after receiving a notice from the Committee that a claim
has been denied, in whole or in part, a Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly
authorized representative) may file with the Committee a written request for a
review of the denial of the claim. Thereafter, but not later than thirty (30)
days after the review procedure began, the Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly
authorized representative):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a)
may review and request copies of pertinent documents, records, and other
information relevant to the claim for benefits;

(b)
may submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating
to the claim for benefits (regardless of whether such comments, documents,
records, or other information was submitted or considered in connection with the
initial claim); and/or

(c)
may request a hearing, which the Committee may grant.

No claim shall be reviewed if the Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly authorized
representative) fails to file the written request for review in a timely manner.
A Claimant who fails to request a review (and fails to have a duly authorized
representative seek review on his behalf) in accordance with this Section 6.3
shall not be permitted to bring an action under ERISA to enforce his rights
under the Plan.
Section 6.4.    Decision on Review.
The Committee shall render its decision on review promptly, and not later than
sixty (60) days after the filing of a written request for review of the denial,
unless a hearing is held or other special circumstances require additional time,
in which case the Committee’s decision must be rendered within one hundred
twenty (120) days after such date. The Claimant will receive written
notification if any extension beyond the original sixty (60) days is necessary.
Such decision must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
Claimant, and it must contain:
(a)
specific reasons for the decision;

(b)
specific reference(s) to the pertinent Plan provisions upon which the decision
was based;

(c)
a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of
charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other
information relevant to the claim for benefits; and

(d)
a statement of the Claimant's right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of
ERISA.

Section 6.5.    Section 409A of the Code.
If an Employee or beneficiary believes he or she is entitled to benefits but has
not received them, the Employee or beneficiary must accept any payment made
under the Plan and make prompt and reasonable, good faith efforts to collect the
remaining portion of the payment, as determined under section 1.409A-3(g) of the
Treasury Regulations. For this purpose (and as determined under such
regulation), efforts to collect the payment will be presumed not to be prompt,
reasonable, good faith efforts, unless the Employee or beneficiary provides
notice to the Committee within 90 days of the latest date upon which the payment
could have been timely made in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the
regulations under Section 409A of the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Code, and unless, if not paid, the Employee or beneficiary takes further
enforcement measures within 180 days after such latest date.
Article 7.     Amendment and Termination
Section 7.1.    Amendment.
The Company may, at any time, amend or modify the Plan in whole or in part;
provided that (a) no amendment or modification shall decrease or restrict the
value of an Employee’s benefit in existence at the time the amendment or
modification is made, calculated as if the Employee had experienced a Separation
from Service as of the effective date of the amendment or modification, and (b)
after a Change in Control, no amendment or modification shall adversely affect
the vesting, calculation or payment of benefits hereunder to any Employee or
beneficiary or diminish any other rights or protections any Employee or
beneficiary would have had, but for such amendment or modification, unless such
affected Employee or beneficiary consents in writing to such amendment.
Section 7.2.    Termination
While the Company intends to maintain this Plan for as long as necessary, the
Company reserves the right to terminate it at any time for whatever reason it
may deem appropriate, subject to the requirements of Section 7.1 that apply with
respect to any amendment to terminate the Plan. In the event of the termination
of the Plan (and any other plan required to be aggregated with this Plan
pursuant to Section 409A of the Code), the Company may, in its discretion, elect
to distribute to each Employee the full amount of his benefit under the Plan in
a lump sum no earlier than the 13th month and no later than the 24th month after
the termination of the Plan, provided that the termination of the Plan is not
proximate to a downturn in the Company’s financial heath and the Company does
not adopt any new arrangement that would have been aggregated with the Plan
under Section 409A within three years following the date of the Plan’s
termination. If a Change in Control Event occurs that results in the payment of
benefits to Employees, then the Plan shall terminate automatically immediately
following the payment of such benefits, and no further benefits shall accrue
under the Plan following such Change in Control Event.
Section 7.3.    Contractual Obligation.
Notwithstanding Section 7.1, the Company intends to assume a contractual
commitment to pay the benefits described under this Plan and such commitment
shall be evidenced by individual contracts entered into between the Company and
each covered Employee for whom benefits accrue under the Plan. The contracts
shall be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 1 to the Plan.
Section 7.4.    Section 409A of the Code.
If the Company determines that any provision of the Plan is or might be
inconsistent with the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, such
provision shall be deemed to be

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

amended to the extent that the Company determines necessary to bring it into
compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Any such deemed amendment shall be
effective as of the earliest date such amendment is necessary under Section 409A
of the Code. No amendment or termination pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Plan
shall be effective to the extent that it would result in a violation of any
requirement under Section 409A of the Code.
Article 8.     Trust
Section 8.1.    Establishment of the Trust.
The Company may utilize one or more Trusts to which the Affiliated Group may
transfer such assets as the members of the Affiliated Group determine in their
sole discretion to assist in meeting their obligations under the Plan. Any Trust
shall conform to the restrictions under Section 409A of the Code relating to the
funding of nonqualified deferred compensation plans. Benefits under the Plan may
also be paid out of the general assets of the Company or a member of the
Affiliated Group.
Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of
this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a
fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Employee or any other person.
Section 8.2.    Automatic Funding of Trust.
Upon a Change in Control, (a) if it has not done so already, the Company shall
establish a Trust, and (b) the members of the Affiliated Group shall contribute
amounts to such Trust (or any pre-existing Trust or Trusts) sufficient to fund
all benefits due under the Plan.
Section 8.3.    Interrelationship of the Plan and the Trust.
The provisions of the Plan and the Participation Agreement shall govern the
rights of an Employee to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The
provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the members of the Affiliated
Group, Employees and the creditors of the Company and members of the Affiliated
Group to the assets transferred to the Trust.
Section 8.4.    Distributions From the Trust.
The obligations of each member of the Affiliated Group under the Plan may be
satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and
any such distribution shall reduce such employer’s obligations under the Plan.
Article 9.     Miscellaneous
Section 9.1.    Status of Plan.
The Plan is intended to be a plan that is not qualified within the meaning of
Section 401(a) of the Code and that “is unfunded and is maintained by an
employer primarily for the purpose of

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly
compensated employees” within the meaning of ERISA. The Plan shall be
administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with
that intent.
Section 9.2.    Unsecured General Creditor.
Employees and their beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no
legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of the
Company or a member of the Affiliated Group or in any property or assets held in
a Trust maintained with respect to the Plan. For purposes of the payment of
benefits under this Plan, any and all of the assets of the Company and each
member of the Affiliated Group, shall be, and shall remain, the general,
unpledged unrestricted assets of the Company or member of the Affiliated Group.
Any employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and
unsecured promise to pay money in the future. To the extent that any person
acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan, such
rights shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of
the Company.
Section 9.3.    Employer’s Liability.
An employer’s liability for the payment of benefits shall be defined only by the
Plan and the Employee’s Participation Agreement. An employer shall have no
obligation to an Employee under the Plan except as expressly provided in the
Plan and his Participation Agreement.
Section 9.4.    Nonassignability.
Neither an Employee nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell,
assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer,
hypothecate, alienate or convey in actual receipt, the amount, if any, payable
hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly
declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. Except as required by law or
by a “qualified domestic relations order” (as defined in Section 414(p)(1)(B) of
the Code) that can be construed and executed in a manner consistent with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code, no part of the amounts payable shall,
prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or
sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate
maintenance owed by an Employee or any other person, or be transferable by
operation of law in the event of an Employee’s or any other person’s bankruptcy
or insolvency.
Section 9.5.    Not a Contract of Employment.
The terms and conditions of this Plan and the Employee’s Participation Agreement
shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between any member of
the Affiliated Group and the Employee. Such employment is hereby acknowledged to
be an “at will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for
any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice,
except as otherwise provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this
Plan or any Participation Agreement under the Plan shall be deemed to give an
Employee the right to be retained in the service of any employer as an employee
or to interfere with the right of any employer to discipline or discharge the
Employee at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 9.6.    Furnishing Information.
Each Employee and beneficiary shall cooperate with the Committee by furnishing
any and all information requested by the Committee and take such other actions
as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and
the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such
physical examinations as the Committee may deem necessary.
Section 9.7.    Governing Law.
The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to
ERISA and the internal laws of the State of Maryland without regard to its
conflicts of laws principles, to the extent not preempted by ERISA.
Section 9.8.    Required or Permitted Notices.
Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Committee under
this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by
registered or certified mail, to the address below:
McCormick & Company, Incorporated
18 Loveton Circle
Sparks, Maryland 21152
Attn: Vice President – Human Relations

Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is
made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark or the receipt for
registration or certification.
Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to an Employee under this
Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by mail, to
the last known address of the Employee.
Section 9.9.    Successors.
The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the
Employee’s employer and its successors and assigns, the Employee, the Employee’s
beneficiaries and their successors and assigns.
Section 9.10.     Severability.
If any provision of the Plan shall be held unlawful or otherwise invalid or
unenforceable in whole or in part, the unlawfulness, invalidity, or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Plan, each of which
shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 9.11.     Payment on Behalf of Person Unable to Manage Affairs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 19

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under
this Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or
is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim therefor shall have been made
by a duly appointed guardian, committee or other legal representative) may be
paid to the spouse, a child, a parent, or a brother or sister, or to any person
deemed by the Committee to have incurred expense for such person otherwise
entitled to payment, in such manner and proportions as the Committee may
determine. The Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity
or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the
benefit. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of
the Company under this Plan.
Section 9.12.     Distribution in the Event of Taxation.
The Committee may distribute all or a portion of the Employee’s benefit to the
extent necessary to pay any FICA or income taxes which may be owed by the
Employee on his benefit under the Plan and to the extent permitted by Section
409A of the Code.
Section 9.13.    Insurance.
The Company and members of the Affiliated Group, on their own behalf or on
behalf of the trustee of the Trust, and, in their sole discretion, may apply for
and procure insurance on the life of the Employee, in such amounts and in such
forms as the Company may choose. The employers or the trustee of the Trust, as
the case may be, shall be the sole owner and beneficiary of any such insurance.
The Employee shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or policies,
and at the request of the employers shall submit to medical examinations and
supply such information and execute such documents as may be required by the
insurance company or companies to whom the employers have applied for insurance.
Section 9.14.     Section 409A of the Code.
No provision in the Plan shall be interpreted or construed to (a) create any
liability for the Company or an employer related to a failure to comply with
Section 409A of the Code or (b) transfer any liability for a failure to comply
with Section 409A of the Code from an Employee, an Employee’s spouse,
beneficiary, estate or other individual to the Company or a member of the
Affiliated Group.
Section 9.15.     Other Benefits and Agreements.
The benefits provided for an Employee and Employee’s beneficiary under the Plan
are in addition to any other benefits available to such Employee under any other
plan or program for employees of the Employee’s employer. The Plan shall
supplement and shall not supersede, modify or amend any other such plan or
programs except as may otherwise be expressly provided.

Article 10.     Grandfathered Benefits

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 20

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 10.1.    Grandfathered Benefits.
The terms of the Plan in effect on December 31, 2004 are attached as Appendix A.
Appendix A applies to an Employee’s Grandfathered Benefits. To the extent that
an Employee’s benefit under the Plan was earned and vested after December 31,
2004, it is subject to the provisions of the Plan as amended and restated
effective January 1, 2005 and any subsequent amendments and restatements of the
Plan. The purpose of Appendix A is to preserve the terms of the Plan that govern
an Employee’s Grandfathered Benefits, and to prevent any Grandfathered Benefits
from becoming subject to Section 409A of the Code. No amendment to the Plan,
including this Appendix A, which would constitute a “material modification” for
purposes of Section 409A, shall be effective unless the amending instrument
specifically provides that it is intended to materially modify the terms of this
Appendix A and to cause the Grandfathered Benefits to become subject to Section
409A of the Code.

*        *        *        *        *

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Plan document has been executed on behalf of the
Company as of November 25, 2008.

Exhibit I

Sample Contracts

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 22

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreement
(for certain senior executives hired before November 30, 2000)

This agreement is made as of the ___ day of __________, _____, by and between
McCormick & Company, Incorporated, a corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Maryland (the “Company”) and _________, an employee of the Company
(“You” or “you”).

WHEREAS, the Company sponsors the McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan (the “Plan”), which provides non-qualified retirement benefits to certain
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and has been restated effective
January 1, 2005 to comply with certain changes in the law; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to enter into an agreement with respect to your
participation in the Plan, which reflects the restated terms of the Plan (the
“Agreement”);

NOW, THEREFORE, you and the Company acknowledge and agree to the following
terms:

I.Your Benefit.
You are eligible for a benefit under the Senior Executive Program. Your benefit
shall equal the amount described in Section I(A) minus the amount described in
Section I(B), calculated in accordance with the provisions of Sections I(C) and
I(D), and subject to the vesting requirements of Section I(E).
A.
The benefit that would have been payable under the Pension Plan on your Benefit
Commencement Date in the single life annuity form of payment, disregarding the
limitations of Sections 415 and 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”) as they may be implemented in the Pension Plan,
calculated as if you had attained an adjusted retirement age on the Benefit
Commencement Date, determined as follows:

1.
The adjusted retirement age will be your actual attained age on the Benefit
Commencement Date increased by one month for each month of service after age 55
during which you participated in the Plan. However, the adjusted retirement age
cannot be greater than 65.

2.
In the benefit calculation, credited service and average monthly earnings will
be determined to the adjusted retirement age, assuming that your rate of pay in
effect immediately preceding the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 23

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

date of your Benefit Trigger had remained in effect until your adjusted
retirement age.
3.
Average monthly earnings shall include 90% of 1/12th of the average of the five
highest annual bonuses that you earned in any five of the ten calendar years
immediately prior to your Benefit Trigger.

B.
The benefit that you are actually eligible to receive under the Pension Plan on
the Benefit Commencement Date under the single life annuity form of payment.

C.
For purposes of calculating your benefit, the fact that you would not be able to
commence payment under the Pension Plan on the Benefit Commencement Date because
you would not yet have reached a certain age on the Benefit Commencement Date
shall be disregarded. In such circumstances, the value of the benefit under the
Pension Plan on the Benefit Commencement Date shall be the actuarial equivalent
of the benefit under the Pension Plan calculated as if it were payable on the
Benefit Commencement Date using actuarial assumptions (including early
retirement factors) as determined by the Committee.

D.
For purposes of calculating your benefit, the term “annual bonus” shall not
include any payment made pursuant to a cash-based long-term incentive award.

E.
Your rights in your benefit under the Plan shall be deemed to vest and become
nonforfeitable upon the earliest of: (1) the date on which you reach age 55;
(2) the date of a Change in Control; (3) the date on which you become Disabled;
or (4) the date immediately preceding the date of your Separation from Service
as a result of death, a Constructive Discharge or a discharge by the Company
without Cause.

II.Benefit Commencement Date.
A.
Your “Benefit Trigger” is the earliest to occur of (1) a Change in Control
Event, (2) your Disability, or (3) your Separation from Service with the
Company.

B.
Except to the extent you elect a different time of payment as may be permitted
by the Plan and the Committee, if your Benefit Trigger is your Separation from
Service, your Benefit Commencement Date shall be determined as follows:

1.
Except as provided in Section II(B)(2) below, your Benefit Commencement Date
shall be the first of the month following the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 24

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

later of your Separation from Service or the date on which you attain age 55.
2.
No payment shall be made during the six-month period immediately following your
Separation from Service (other than in the case of your death).

3.
Any payments otherwise due during the six-month period immediately following
your Separation from Service shall be paid on the first business day that occurs
six months following your Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of
your death). During this six-month period, the amounts otherwise payable to you
shall accrue interest at the 30-day Treasury Bill rate in effect for November of
the year before the year in which you experience a Separation from Service.

C.
If your Benefit Trigger is a Change in Control Event, your Benefit Commencement
Date shall be the date of the Change in Control Event.

D.
Except to the extent you elect a different time of payment as may be permitted
by the Plan, if your Benefit Trigger is your Disability, your Benefit
Commencement Date shall be the first of the month following the later of the
date of your Disability or the date on which you attain age 55.

III.Form of Benefit.

occurs after you have begun to receive payment of your benefit under the Plan,
the beneficiary shall receive any benefit to which you are entitled under the
form in which the benefit was being paid. If you are unmarried and have not yet
commenced your benefit at the time of your death, your beneficiaries, heirs, or
estate shall not be entitled to a benefit under the Plan.
V.Amendment and Termination.
A.
The Company may, at any time, amend or modify the Plan in whole or in part;

made, calculated as if you had experienced a Separation from Service as of the
effective date of the amendment or modification, and (2) after a Change in
Control, no amendment or modification shall adversely affect the vesting,
calculation or payment of benefits hereunder to you or your beneficiary or
diminish any other rights or protections you or your beneficiary would have had,
but for such amendment or modification, unless you or your beneficiary consent
in writing to such amendment.

B.
While the Company intends to maintain the Plan for as long as necessary, the
Company reserves the right to terminate it at any time for whatever reasons it
may deem appropriate, subject to the requirements of subsection (V)(A) that
apply with respect to any amendment to terminate the Plan. In the event of the
termination of the Plan (and any other plan required to be aggregated with this
Plan pursuant to Section 409A of the Code), the Company may, in its discretion,
elect to distribute to you the full amount

Control Event occurs that results in the payment of benefits to you, then the
Plan shall terminate automatically immediately following the payment of such
benefits, and no further benefits shall accrue under the Plan following such
Change in Control Event.
C.
If the Company determines that any provision of the Plan is or might be
inconsistent with the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, such
provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent that the Company
determines necessary to bring it into compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
Any such deemed amendment shall be effective as of the earliest date such
amendment is necessary under Section 409A of the Code. No amendment or
termination described in Sections V(A) or (B) of this Agreement shall be
effective to the extent that it would result in a violation of any requirement
under Section 409A of the Code.

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreement
(for certain senior executives hired after November 30, 2000)

This agreement is made as of the ___ day of ________, 20__, by and between
McCormick & Company, Incorporated, a corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Maryland (the “Company”) and _________________, an employee of the
Company (“You” or “you”).

WHEREAS, the Company sponsors the McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan (the “Plan”), which provides non-qualified retirement benefits to certain
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and has been restated effective
January 1, 2005 to comply with certain changes in the law; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to enter into an agreement with respect to your
participation in the Plan, which reflects the restated terms of the Plan (the
“Agreement”);

NOW, THEREFORE, you and the Company acknowledge and agree to the following
terms:

I.Your Benefit.
You are eligible for a benefit under the Senior Executive Program. Your benefit
shall equal the amount described in Section I(A) multiplied by the amount in
Section I(C), minus the amount described in Section I(B), calculated in
accordance with the provisions of Section I(D) and subject to the vesting
requirements of Section I(E).
A.
The benefit that would have been payable under the Pension Plan on your Benefit
Commencement Date in the single life annuity form of payment, disregarding the
limitations of Sections 415 and 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”) as they may be implemented in the Pension Plan,
calculated as if you had attained an adjusted retirement age on the Benefit
Commencement Date, determined as follows:

1.
The adjusted retirement age will be your actual attained age on the Benefit
Commencement Date increased by one month for each month of service after age 55
during which you participated in the Plan. However, the adjusted retirement age
cannot be greater than 65.

2.
In the benefit calculation, credited service and average monthly earnings will
be determined to the adjusted retirement age, assuming that your rate of pay in
effect immediately preceding the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 29

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

date of your Benefit Trigger had remained in effect until your adjusted
retirement age.
B.
The benefit that you are actually eligible to receive under the Pension Plan on
the Benefit Commencement Date under the single life annuity form of payment.

C.
If you are in compensation tier D at the time of your Benefit Trigger, the
multiplier shall be 1.4; if you are in compensation tier C or higher at the time
of your Benefit Trigger, the multiplier shall be 1.5.

D.
For purposes of calculating your benefit, the fact that you would not be able to
commence payment under the Pension Plan on the Benefit Commencement Date because
you would not yet have reached a certain age on the Benefit Commencement Date
shall be disregarded. In such circumstances, the value of the benefit under the
Pension Plan on the Benefit Commencement Date shall be the actuarial equivalent
of the benefit under the Pension Plan calculated as if it were payable on the
Benefit Commencement Date using actuarial assumptions (including early
retirement factors) as determined by the Committee.

E.
Your rights in your benefit under the Plan shall be deemed to vest and become
nonforfeitable upon the earliest of: (1) the date on which you reach age 55;
(2) the date of a Change in Control; (3) the date on which you become Disabled
or (4) the date immediately preceding the date of your Separation from Service
as a result of death, a Constructive Discharge or a discharge by the Company
without Cause.

II.Benefit Commencement Date.
A.
Your “Benefit Trigger” is the earliest to occur of (1) a Change in Control
Event, (2) your Disability, or (3) your Separation from Service with the
Company.

B.
Except to the extent you elect a different time of payment as may be permitted
by the Plan and the Committee, if your Benefit Trigger is your Separation from
Service, your Benefit Commencement Date shall be determined as follows:

1.
Except as provided in Section II(B)(2) below, your Benefit Commencement Date
shall be the first of the month following the later of your Separation from
Service or the date on which you attain age 55.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 30

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.
No payment shall be made during the six-month period immediately following your
Separation from Service (other than in the case of your death).

3.
Any payments otherwise due during the six-month period immediately following
your Separation from Service shall be paid on the first business day that occurs
six months following your Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of
your death). During this six-month period, the amounts otherwise payable to you
shall accrue interest at the 30-day Treasury Bill rate in effect for November of
the year before the year in which you experience a Separation from Service.

C.
If your Benefit Trigger is a Change in Control Event, your Benefit Commencement
Date shall be the date of the Change in Control Event.

D.
Except to the extent you elect a different time of payment as may be permitted
by the Plan, if your Benefit Trigger is your Disability, your Benefit
Commencement Date shall be the first of the month following the later of the
date of your Disability or the date on which you attain age 55.

III.Form of Benefit.
A.    Except as provided in subsection III(B) or (C):
1.
If your Benefit Trigger is your Disability or your Separation from Service and
you are married on the Benefit Commencement Date, your benefit shall be paid in
the form of a fifty (50) percent joint and survivor annuity with your spouse as
the survivor annuitant.

2.
If your Benefit Trigger is your Disability or your Separation from Service and
you are unmarried on the Benefit Commencement Date, your benefit shall be paid
in the form of a single life annuity.

3.
If your Benefit Trigger is a Change in Control Event, your benefit shall be paid
in a lump sum.

B.
If your benefit on your Benefit Commencement Date would be the actuarial
equivalent of a lump sum payment of less than the limit set forth in Section
402(g) of the Code ($15,500 in 2008), the benefit shall be paid in a lump sum.

C.
Except as provided in Section III(B), benefits under the Plan paid due to a
Separation from Service or Disability may be payable in the following
actuarially equivalent forms (to the extent permitted under The McCormick
Pension Plan at the time your benefit commences): (1) a

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

single life annuity; (2) a 50%, 66 and 2/3%, 75% or 100% joint and survivor
annuity; (3) an annuity described in Section III(C)(1) or (2) with guaranteed
payments for the first 5, 10, or 15 years; and (4) any other form of payment
permitted by the Committee that would be treated as an actuarially equivalent
life annuity within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(ii)(B).

IV.Death Benefit.
Upon your death before your Benefit Commencement Date, your surviving spouse, if
any, shall be paid a benefit equal to 50% of the benefit you would have been
entitled to under the Plan had you experienced a Separation from Service on the
day immediately preceding your death. If you die before age 55, the surviving
spouse’s benefit shall commence payment on the first day of the month following
the date on which you would have reached age 55, and the surviving spouse’s
benefit shall be calculated as if you had reached age 55, but based on your
actual compensation and years of service as of your date of death. If death
occurs after you have begun to receive payment of your benefit under the Plan,
the beneficiary shall receive any benefit to which you are entitled under the
form in which the benefit was being paid. If you are unmarried and have not yet
commenced your benefit at the time of your death, your beneficiaries, heirs, or
estate shall not be entitled to a benefit under the Plan.
V.Amendment and Termination.
A.
The Company may, at any time, amend or modify the Plan in whole or in part;
provided that (1) no amendment or modification shall decrease or restrict the
value of your benefit in existence at the time the amendment or modification is
made, calculated as if you had experienced a Separation from Service as of the
effective date of the amendment or modification, and (2) after a Change in
Control, no amendment or modification shall adversely affect the vesting,
calculation or payment of benefits hereunder to you or your beneficiary or
diminish any other rights or protections you or your beneficiary would have had,
but for such amendment or modification, unless you or your beneficiary consent
in writing to such amendment.

B.
While the Company intends to maintain the Plan for as long as necessary, the
Company reserves the right to terminate it at any time for whatever reasons it
may deem appropriate, subject to the requirements of subsection (V)(A) that
apply with respect to any amendment to terminate the Plan. In the event of the
termination of the Plan (and any other plan required to be aggregated with this
Plan pursuant to Section 409A of the Code), the Company may, in its discretion,
elect to distribute to you the full amount

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Control Event occurs that results in the payment of benefits to you, then the
Plan shall terminate automatically immediately following the payment of such
benefits, and no further benefits shall accrue under the Plan following such
Change in Control Event.

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreement
(for certain executives hired after November 30, 2000)

This agreement is made as of the ___ day of ________, 20__, by and between
McCormick & Company, Incorporated, a corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Maryland (the “Company”) and _________________, an employee of the
Company (“You” or “you”).

WHEREAS, the Company sponsors the McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan (the “Plan”), which provides non-qualified retirement benefits to certain
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and has been restated effective
January 1, 2005 to comply with certain changes in the law; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to enter into an agreement with respect to your
participation in the Plan, which reflects the restated terms of the Plan (the
“Agreement”);

NOW, THEREFORE, you and the Company acknowledge and agree to the following
terms:

I.Your Benefit.
You are eligible for a benefit under the Executive Program. Your benefit shall
equal the amount described in Section I(A) multiplied by the amount in Section
I(C), minus the amount described in Section I(B), calculated in accordance with
the provisions of Section I(D) and subject to the vesting requirements of
Section I(E).
A.
The benefit that would have been payable under the Pension Plan on your Benefit
Commencement Date in the single life annuity form of payment, disregarding the
limitations of Sections 415 and 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”) as they may be implemented in the Pension Plan.

B.
The benefit that you are actually eligible to receive under the Pension Plan on
the Benefit Commencement Date under the single life annuity form of payment.

C.
If you are in compensation tier D at the time of your Benefit Trigger, the
multiplier shall be 1.4; if you are in compensation tier C or higher at the time
of your Benefit Trigger, the multiplier shall be 1.5.

D.
For purposes of calculating your benefit, the fact that you would not be able to
commence payment under the Pension Plan on the Benefit Commencement Date because
you would not yet have reached a certain age on the Benefit Commencement Date
shall be disregarded. In such

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

circumstances, the value of the benefit under the Pension Plan on the Benefit
Commencement Date shall be the actuarial equivalent of the benefit under the
Pension Plan calculated as if it were payable on the Benefit Commencement Date
using actuarial assumptions (including early retirement factors) as determined
by the Committee.
E.
Your rights in your benefit under the Plan shall be deemed to vest and become
nonforfeitable upon the earliest of: (1) the date on which you reach age 55;
(2) the date of a Change in Control; (3) the date on which you become Disabled
or (4) the date immediately preceding the date of your Separation from Service
as a result of death, a Constructive Discharge or a discharge by the Company
without Cause.

II.Benefit Commencement Date.
A.
Your “Benefit Trigger” is the earliest to occur of (1) a Change in Control
Event, (2) your Disability, or (3) your Separation from Service with the
Company.

B.
Except to the extent you elect a different time of payment as may be permitted
by the Plan and the Committee, if your Benefit Trigger is your Separation from
Service, your Benefit Commencement Date shall be determined as follows:

1.
Except as provided in Section II(B)(2) below, your Benefit Commencement Date
shall be the first of the month following the later of your Separation from
Service or the date on which you attain age 55.

2.
No payment shall be made during the six-month period immediately following your
Separation from Service (other than in the case of your death).

3.
Any payments otherwise due during the six-month period immediately following
your Separation from Service shall be paid on the first business day that occurs
six months following your Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of
your death). During this six-month period, the amounts otherwise payable to you
shall accrue interest at the 30-day Treasury Bill rate in effect for November of
the year before the year in which you experience a Separation from Service.

C.
If your Benefit Trigger is a Change in Control Event, your Benefit Commencement
Date shall be the date of the Change in Control Event.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D.
Except to the extent you elect a different time of payment as may be permitted
by the Plan, if your Benefit Trigger is your Disability, your Benefit
Commencement Date shall be the first of the month following the later of the
date of your Disability or the date on which you attain age 55.

III.Form of Benefit.
A.    Except as provided in subsection III(B) or (C):
1.
If your Benefit Trigger is your Disability or your Separation from Service and
you are married on the Benefit Commencement Date, your benefit shall be paid in
the form of a fifty (50) percent joint and survivor annuity with your spouse as
the survivor annuitant.

2.
If your Benefit Trigger is your Disability or your Separation from Service and
you are unmarried on the Benefit Commencement Date, your benefit shall be paid
in the form of a single life annuity.

3.
If your Benefit Trigger is a Change in Control Event, your benefit shall be paid
in a lump sum.

B.
If your benefit on your Benefit Commencement Date would be the actuarial
equivalent of a lump sum payment of less than the limit set forth in Section
402(g) of the Code ($15,500 in 2008), the benefit shall be paid in a lump sum.

C.
Except as provided in Section III(B), benefits under the Plan paid due to a
Separation from Service or Disability may be payable in the following
actuarially equivalent forms (to the extent permitted under The McCormick
Pension Plan at the time your benefit commences): (1) a single life annuity; (2)
a 50%, 66 and 2/3%, 75% or 100% joint and survivor annuity; (3) an annuity
described in Section III(C)(1) or (2) with guaranteed payments for the first 5,
10, or 15 years; and (4) any other form of payment permitted by the Committee
that would be treated as an actuarially equivalent life annuity within the
meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(ii)(B).

IV.Death Benefit.
Upon your death before your Benefit Commencement Date, your surviving spouse, if
any, shall be paid a benefit equal to 50% of the benefit you would have been
entitled to under the Plan had you experienced a Separation from Service on the
day immediately preceding your death. If you die before age 55, the surviving
spouse’s benefit shall commence payment on the first day of the month following
the date on which you would have reached age 55, and the surviving spouse’s
benefit shall be calculated as if you had reached age 55, but based on your
actual

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

compensation and years of service as of your date of death. If death occurs
after you have begun to receive payment of your benefit under the Plan, the
beneficiary shall receive any benefit to which you are entitled under the form
in which the benefit was being paid. If you are unmarried and have not yet
commenced your benefit at the time of your death, your beneficiaries, heirs, or
estate shall not be entitled to a benefit under the Plan.
V.Amendment and Termination.
A.
The Company may, at any time, amend or modify the Plan in whole or in part;
provided that (1) no amendment or modification shall decrease or restrict the
value of your benefit in existence at the time the amendment or modification is
made, calculated as if you had experienced a Separation from Service as of the
effective date of the amendment or modification, and (2) after a Change in
Control, no amendment or modification shall adversely affect the vesting,
calculation or payment of benefits hereunder to you or your beneficiary or
diminish any other rights or protections you or your beneficiary would have had,
but for such amendment or modification, unless you or your beneficiary consent
in writing to such amendment.

B.
While the Company intends to maintain the Plan for as long as necessary, the
Company reserves the right to terminate it at any time for whatever reasons it
may deem appropriate, subject to the requirements of subsection (V)(A) that
apply with respect to any amendment to terminate the Plan. In the event of the
termination of the Plan (and any other plan required to be aggregated with this
Plan pursuant to Section 409A of the Code), the Company may, in its discretion,
elect to distribute to you the full amount of your benefit under the Plan in a
lump sum no earlier than the 13th month and no later than the 24th month after
the termination of the Plan. If a Change in Control Event occurs that results in
the payment of benefits to you, then the Plan shall terminate automatically
immediately following the payment of such benefits, and no further benefits
shall accrue under the Plan following such Change in Control Event.

C.
If the Company determines that any provision of the Plan is or might be
inconsistent with the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, such
provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent that the Company
determines necessary to bring it into compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
Any such deemed amendment shall be effective as of the earliest date such
amendment is necessary under Section 409A of the Code. No amendment or
termination described in Sections V(A) or (B) of this Agreement shall be
effective to the extent that it would result in a violation of any requirement
under Section 409A of the Code.

VI.Miscellaneous Terms.
