modify, suspend, or terminate the Plan (including the Appendices made a part
thereof) at any time by resolution of the Board of Directors; and
Whereas, the Company has decided to terminate the Plan, effective as of July 31,
2020, and as part of the termination process, wishes to amend the Plan, in order
to make certain changes that will apply either before or after such termination;
and
Whereas, more specifically, the Amendment includes the following provisions:

to elect to receive the lump sum Actuarial Equivalent of the survivor annuity as
an alternative payment form, subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)Actuarial Factors. Such lump sum will be calculated by using the lump sum
Actuarial Equivalent factors described in section 6.11(b).
(b)Required Notification and Election Periods. In order to be eligible to
receive this lump sum distribution option, the surviving Spouse must notify the
Administrator of the Participant’s death within 30 days of the date on which
such death occurs. Following such timely notification, the Spouse will receive
an election form permitting the lump sum distribution as an alternative payment
form. The Spouse must then complete and submit such an election form within 30
days after such form is made available to the Spouse. If either of these
deadlines is not satisfied, the lump sum distribution option will not be
available to the surviving Spouse.
Following a timely lump sum election, such lump sum shall be paid out within 60
days from the receipt of the election form by the Administrator.”
9.    Section 7.1 of the Plan is revised by adding the following section (d) to
the Plan, effective as of July 31, 2020:
“(d)
Benefit Commencement following Plan Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in subsections (a)-(c) above, in the case of a Participant who attains
age 65 on or after July 31, 2020, such Participant may elect to have benefit
payments commence immediately, rather than be delayed until such Participant’s
employment with the Company and Affiliated Employers terminates. Furthermore, in
the case of a Participant who had attained age 65 prior to July 31, 2020, but
whose benefit payments had not commenced due to continued employment with the
Company or an Affiliated Employer, such Participant may elect to have such
payments commence as of July 31, 2020. In determining the amount and form of
payment of such normal retirement benefits, the remaining provisions of this
Article 7 (and of the Plan and Appendices in general) shall apply as if that
Participant’s employment with the Company and Affiliated Employers had
terminated. The provisions of this subsection (d) shall also apply to
Participants entitled to a benefit under any Appendix to the Plan, regardless of
any language within such Appendix to the contrary.”

10.    Section 7.2(c)(1) of the Plan is revised by adding the following wording
to section 7.2(c)(1) (i.e., immediately preceding section 7.2(c)(2)), effective

has not attained age 70-1/2 as of December 31, 2019, the references in

attains age 70-1/2” shall be replaced by “the calendar year in which such
Employee attains age 72.”
11.    Section 7.5 of the Plan is revised by adding a new subsection (c),
effective as of July 31, 2020:
“(c)
Limited Suspension of Benefits on and after Plan Termination Date.
Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) above, in the case of Participants who
remain in employment with the Company and Affiliated Employers after having
attained age 65, and after July 31, 2020, benefit payments may commence in
accordance with section 7.1(d), regardless of the number of Hours of Service
earned in each month.”

12.    Section 9.4 is added to the Plan as follows, effective as of July 31,
2020
“9.4 Plan Termination
(a)Plan Termination. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary,
the Plan shall be terminated effective July 31, 2020 (the “Termination Date”).
All accrued benefits under the Plan shall be distributed thereafter in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan and this section 9.4. The
Administrator shall take all actions as are necessary or desirable to provide
for the termination of the Plan and the distribution of Participants’ accrued
benefits.
(b)Vesting and Continued Participation. Effective as of the Termination Date,
each affected Participant’s accrued benefit shall be fully vested in accordance
with section 9.2(a) of the Plan. All Participants in the Plan on the Termination
Date shall continue as Participants in the Plan with respect to their accrued
benefits until such accrued benefits are distributed to them or their
Beneficiaries, in accordance with the terms of this section 9.4 and the
remaining provisions of the Plan.
(c)
Distribution of Benefits. After the termination of the Plan, the benefits of
each Participant, surviving Spouse alternate payee, or other Beneficiary under
the Plan will be distributed in accordance with the terms of this section 9.4.
Many such Participants and other persons are eligible to receive lump sum
distributions pursuant to the terms of section 6.18, or a comparable provision
of an Appendix to the Plan. Such immediate lump sum shall be paid after the
Termination Date but prior to the purchase of an irrevocable annuity contract
from a licensed insurance company. Alternatively, each such Participant or other
person may elect to receive benefits in any available distribution option upon
the Plan termination in accordance with the terms of the Plan; provided,
however, certain annuity payments may commence under the terms of the Plan and
continue under the terms of the irrevocable annuity contract from the insurance
company referenced in subsection (f) below.

Upon completion of the distributions to Participants and other persons described
in the preceding paragraphs, any remaining funds in the Trust Fund may revert to
the Employer, pursuant to section 8.4(a) of the Plan. Furthermore, the Company
shall have the discretion to transfer some portion of such excess assets to the
CTS Corporation Retirement Savings Plan, or some other eligible “qualified
replacement plan,” as that term is defined in Code section 4980(d)(2). Any such
transfer shall be in accordance with the provisions of Code section 4980 and
this section 9.4.

(d)Trust Fund. All accrued benefits shall continue to be held by the Trustee
under the Trust until distributed in accordance with subsection (c) above.
(e)Government Notices and Approvals. The Administrator shall furnish notices to
and request approvals from the Internal Revenue Service and any other government
agency with regard to the termination of the Plan, as deemed necessary or
desirable.
(f)Authority of Company and Administrator. The Administrator may adopt such
further amendments to the Plan, including amendments to the Plan after the Plan
has been terminated, as may be necessary to comply with applicable IRS or other
governmental requirements, or as may be desirable to provide for the
distribution of the accrued benefits, or for any other reason. Until all accrued
benefits have been distributed (either by lump sum payment or through the
purchase of an irrevocable annuity contract from a licensed insurance company),
the Company and Administrator shall retain all rights, duties, and discretion
imposed on or reserved to the Company and Administrator under the Plan, as
applicable.
(g)Plan Provisions. Except as inconsistent with the provisions of this section
9.4, all provisions of the Plan shall continue in effect until all accrued
benefits have been distributed and all other actions necessary to terminate the
Plan have been completed. Upon complete distribution of the accrued benefits,
the Trust shall terminate. The terms of this section 9.4 shall supersede the
provisions of the Plan to the extent necessary to eliminate inconsistencies
between the Plan and this section.”
13.    Section B.1(a)(1)(A) is added to Appendix B of the Plan, immediately
following subsection (a)(1), to read as follows, effective as of August 1, 2020:
“(1)(A) “Beneficiary” means, where applicable, an individual or (to the extent
permitted) an entity designated by the Participant on a form for such purpose,
and filed with the Administrator. In the event that a Participant shall not
designate a Beneficiary in the manner heretofore stated, or if for any reason
such designation shall be legally ineffective, or if such Beneficiary shall
predecease the Participant or die simultaneously with him, or if such
Beneficiary shall die prior to receiving all of the benefit payments that would
have been payable to such Beneficiary if such Beneficiary’s death had not
occurred, then distribution shall be made to the surviving member or members of
the following classes of persons, with preference for classes in the order
listed, in equal shares among members of a class if there should be more than
one member of a class then living. The Participant’s—
(1)    spouse;
(2)    children (including children by adoption);
(3)    parents (including parents by adoption);
(4)    brothers and sisters;
(5)    such other person(s) as may be determined by the Administrator.”
14.    Section 2.1(b) of Appendix E of the Plan is revised and clarified as
follows, effective as of July 31, 2020:
“(b)
“Early Retirement Date” means the first day of the month coincident with or next
following the date an Employee retires (as further described in section 5.2)
before his Normal Retirement Age.”

15.    Section 2.1(d) of Appendix G of the Plan is revised to read as follows,
effective as of July 31, 2020:
“(d)
“Beneficiary” means, where applicable, an individual or (to the extent
permitted) an entity designated by the Participant on a form for such purpose,
and filed with the Administrator. In the event that a Participant shall not
designate a Beneficiary in the manner heretofore stated, or if for any reason
such designation shall be legally ineffective, or if such Beneficiary shall
predecease the Participant or die simultaneously with him, or if such
Beneficiary shall die prior to receiving all of the benefit payments that would
have been payable to such Beneficiary if such Beneficiary’s death had not
occurred, then distribution shall be made to the surviving member or members of
the following classes of persons, with preference for classes in the order
listed, in equal shares among members of a class if there should be more than
one member of a class then living. The Participant’s—

(6)    spouse;
(7)    children (including children by adoption);
(8)    parents (including parents by adoption);
(9)    brothers and sisters;
(10)    such other person(s) as may be determined by the Administrator.”
16.    Addendum C to Appendix G of the Plan shall be deleted, insofar as there
are no active Participants still employed by CTS who are covered under Appendix
G, and therefore no lump sum death benefits under that Addendum C are still
payable to Beneficiaries.
17.    
Changes to Core Document
18.    Article 6 of the Core Document is amended to include a new section 6.18
to read as follows, effective as of August 1, 2020:
“6.18 Lump Sum Option Available to Terminated Vested and Active Participants for
Limited Period of Time During 2020–2021.
(a)Definitions. For purposes of this section 6.18, the following definitions
will apply:
(1)    “Eligible Window Participant” means a Participant who is eligible to make
an election described in this section 6.18, as more fully described in
subsection (c) below.
(2)    “Lump Sum Determination Date” means April 1, 2021, the date as of which
lump sum distributions shall be calculated and payable, and the date as of which
immediate annuity payments may commence; provided, however, the actual date on
which a lump sum distribution is made or the initial annuity payment is made may
be a short period of time following this Lump Sum Determination Date.
(3)    “Offer Closing Date” means the latest permissible date on which an
Eligible Window Participant may elect to receive a lump sum distribution or
other payment under the provisions of this section 6.18. Such date is expected
to be March 5, 2021; provided, however, that the Administrator may choose in its
sole and absolute discretion to permit extensions beyond such Offer Closing
Date, provided that any such extensions are applied on a uniform and
nondiscriminatory basis to all similarly situated persons.
(b)General. In addition to lump sum distributions for amounts not exceeding
$5,000 described in section 6.7, a lump sum distribution for amounts larger than
$5,000 shall be made available to Eligible Window Participants, as further
described in subsection (c) below.

These additional lump sum distributions shall only be made available for a
limited period of time, as described further below.
(c)Eligible Window Participants. The single lump sum payment option (as well as
the immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below), shall be
available to Active Window Participants, Terminated Vested Window Participants,
and Other Window Participants, as described in paragraphs (1)-(3) below, but
excluding any persons described in paragraph (4) below. These groups of eligible
Participants shall collectively be known as Eligible Window Participants.
(1)    Active Window Participants. The term Active Window Participants shall
include all Participants who—
(A)    are actively employed by the Company or an Affiliated Employer as of the
date just before formal notice is provided, as described in subsection (d)(1)
below,
(B)    are covered under the terms and provisions of this Core Document, and
specifically including a Participant who is covered under the terms of Appendix
B and therefore eligible to receive a “past service benefit” (commonly referred
to as a “Wireless Participant”),
(C)    who are alive as of the Lump Sum  Determination Date, and
(D)    are not excluded under paragraph (4) below.
(2)    Terminated Vested Window Participants. Unless excluded under paragraph

(A)    who is covered under the terms and provisions of this Core Document, and
specifically including a Participant who is covered under the terms of Appendix
B and therefore eligible to receive a “past service benefit” (commonly referred
to as a “Wireless Participant”).
(B)    who has terminated employment with the Company and all Affiliated
Employers on a date before the date on which formal notice is provided, as
described in subsection (d)(1) below,
(C)    who is alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date,
(D)    who is entitled to a retirement benefit under Article 6 of this Core
Document, and such benefit has not commenced to be paid (in the form of an
annuity) and has not been paid out completely (in the form of a lump sum) as of
the Lump Sum Determination Date, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (5)
below, and
(E)    for whom the lump sum actuarial equivalent value of the Participant’s
benefit, determined on the basis of the Actuarial Assumptions described in

section 6.18.
(3)    Other Window Participants. In addition to Active Window Participants and
Terminated Vested Window Participants described above, any—
(A)    surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary or alternate payee whose
benefits are derived from any of the previously described groups of Window
Participants,
(B)    whose benefits under the Plan have not yet commenced, and
(C)    who is alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date,  
shall be considered as Other Window Participants, and shall thereby be
designated as Eligible Window Participants; provided, however, that if a
Participant otherwise described in paragraph (1) or (2) above, or an alternate
payee is subject to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order which
requires payment (to that specific person) in a form other than a lump sum, such
Participant or alternate payee shall be treated as excluded under paragraph (4)
below.
(4)    Excluded Persons. Notwithstanding paragraphs (1)-(3) above, Participants
and other persons described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) above who are in
payment status shall not be Eligible Window Participants, except as otherwise
provided in paragraph (5) below. Similarly, Terminated Vested Window
Participants described in paragraphs (2) above who have attained age 65 prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date shall not be Eligible Window Participants,
except as otherwise provided in paragraph (5) below.
(5)    Limited Exception for Certain Participants in Payment Status.
Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (2)(D) and (3)(B) above, a
Participant, if any—
(A)    who satisfies the conditions of paragraph (2) above, other than those
described in subparagraph (D), or who satisfies the conditions of paragraph (3)
above, other than those described in subparagraph (B),
(B)    whose benefits have commenced on or after March 1, 2020 and prior to June
1, 2020, and
(C)    who is determined by the Administrator not to have been fully informed of
the right to receive a lump sum distribution prior to the date on which his
benefits commenced,
shall be classified as an Eligible Window Participant, and eligible to make the
election described in this section 6.18, modified as described in the following
paragraph. Such determination shall be made in the sole and absolute discretion
of the Administrator, which shall be applied on a consistent, uniform, and
nondiscriminatory basis.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection (d) or (e) below, any
such Participant described above may elect between (i) receiving a lump sum
distribution, calculated as described in subsection (f)(1), but actuarially
reduced to reflect the value of annuity payments received, or (ii) continuing
the annuity payments in the same payment form as previously elected (and
currently in payment status).
(d)Notice and Election Period. The following provisions relating to notices and
elections shall be applicable to Eligible Window Participants.
(1)
Notification Dates and Timing Requirements. Eligible Window Participants were
initially notified of the availability of the option to receive a lump sum
distribution in May or June 2020. The formal notice describing all election
rights (comparable to the notice described in section 4.7(a)(5) of the Plan)
will be distributed to Eligible Window Participants in January, 2021.

The lump sum distribution option described in subsection (b) above (and the
immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below) may only be elected
during the election period beginning after the formal notice has been provided,
and ending on the Offer Closing Date (as defined in subsection (a) above) (the
“Election Period”). Immediate annuity payments for Eligible Window Participants
who timely elect to receive such payments will be determined as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date. Similarly, lump sum distributions will be determined as of
the Lump Sum Determination Date.

The dates mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs, including the Offer Closing
Date and the Lump Sum Determination Date, are anticipated to be accurate, but
may need to be changed, and are permitted to be changed, in order to accommodate
unanticipated administrative or other delays or, alternatively, in accordance
with subsection (h) below. Regardless of the actual dates of notice and the
dates of the Election Period described above, Eligible Window Participants shall
be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the program described in
this section 6.18, and to make any and all elections relating to form of payment
and related matters.

(2)    Election, Waiver, Consent, and Revocation Requirements. In the case of
Eligible Window Participants who are married, the provisions of section 6.5
relating to notice requirements, Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity automatic
payment form, waiver of the automatic payment form, spousal consent, and related
requirements affecting the timing of the distribution, shall apply, except as
otherwise provided in this section 6.18 or section 6.7 (relating to certain
benefit amounts that do not exceed $5,000). In the case of Eligible Window
Participants (regardless of whether single or married), such persons shall be
notified of the lump sum distribution option, and also notified of all
applicable payment forms for which they are eligible, as described in subsection
(e).

In all cases, an Eligible Window Participant who elects to receive a lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity pursuant to this section 6.18 may subsequently
choose to revoke that election at any time prior to the Lump Sum Determination
Date (including the period of time after the Offer Closing Date, but prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date).

In addition to the election, waiver, and consent requirements described in the
preceding paragraph, Eligible Window Participants must comply with any
reasonable requests of the Administrator related to payment of a benefit payable
under this section 6.18, which requests shall be uniformly applied to similarly
situated persons. Such requests may relate to, for example, required
notarizations or proof of birthdate.
(3)    Failure to Submit an Election. For purposes of this section 6.18, an
Eligible Window Participant must make a “valid” election in order to receive a
lump sum distribution or an immediate annuity. This determination of whether an
Eligible Window Participant has made a “valid” election shall be made in the
sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator. An Eligible Window
Participant may make a valid election by signing and returning the election
confirmation form provided by the Administrator for this purpose.
Any Eligible Window Participant who does not submit a valid election hereunder
by the Offer Closing Date, in accordance with procedures established and
determined by the Administrator, shall not be eligible to receive the lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity described in this section 6.18.
(e)Immediate Annuity Option Payment Forms. In the case of any Eligible Window
Participant who is eligible to elect a lump sum distribution as described in
this section 6.18, such person shall alternatively be permitted to elect an
“immediately payable” annuity. Such immediately payable annuity shall be
available in the following payment forms, as further described in Article 6 of
this Core Document, depending on the status of the Eligible Window Participant,
and shall be payable as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, as described above.
Such immediate annuity will commence under the terms of the Plan, and continue
(as applicable) under the terms of the irrevocable annuity contract from the
insurance company referenced in section 9.4(f).

An Eligible Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) or (c)(2) above
who is single may elect a single life annuity. If married, such person may elect
a single life annuity, a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or an Optional
Joint and Survivor Annuity. A Window Participant described in subsection (c)(3)
above may elect a life annuity (if a surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary),
or, if an alternate payee, may elect whatever payment forms are permissible,
taking into account the terms of the qualified domestic relations order and the
age of the applicable Participant as of the date of the alternate payee’s
benefit commencement.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, either—
(1)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant described in subsection (c)(2)
above who has attained age 55, or
(2)    an Active Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) above who has
attained Normal Retirement Age,
shall be eligible to elect all other optional payment forms described in this
Core Document (if any).
(f)Determination of Amount of Lump Sum Distributions and Immediate Annuity
Payments. In the case of an Eligible Window Participant who elects under
subsection (d) to receive a lump sum distribution or immediate annuity described
in subsection (b) or (e) above, such benefit shall be calculated as of the Lump
Sum Determination Date, pursuant to the methodology described below, although
such amounts may not actually be distributed until a later date in December.
(1)    Lump Sum Distributions. The amount of a Participant’s lump sum
distribution under this section 6.18 shall be determined on the basis of the
lump sum Actuarial Assumptions described in section 6.11. For purposes of
subparagraphs (A) and (B) below, Active Window Participants described in
subsection (c)(1) above shall be assumed to have terminated employment with the
Company and all Affiliated Employers immediately prior to the Lump Sum
Determination Date.
(A)    Eligible Window Participants Who have not attained Age 55 as of Lump Sum
Determination Date. For Eligible Window Participants who have not yet attained
age 55 as of the Lump Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person
described in subsection (c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is
derived from such an Eligible Window Participant who has not yet attained age
55), the amount of the lump sum benefit shall be determined on the basis of the
benefit that such Participant or other person would have been entitled to
receive at age 55, as described in section 5.2 or 5.4 of this Core Document, but
in no event less than the lump sum value determined as of his Normal Retirement
Age.
(B)    Eligible Window Participants Who have attained Age 55 as of Lump Sum
Determination Date. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of an Eligible Window
Participant who is entitled to a benefit under section 5.2 or 5.4 of this Core
Document as of the Lump Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person
described in subsection (c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is
derived from such an Eligible Window Participant entitled to such a benefit),
the lump sum value shall be determined on the basis of the annuity benefit that
such Participant would have been entitled to receive beginning on that Lump Sum
Determination Date. In no event, however, shall such lump sum value be less than
the lump sum determined as of the Participant’s Normal Retirement Age.
(2)    Immediate Annuity Payments to Certain Eligible Window Participants.
(A)    Benefit Commencement Prior to Age 55 for Terminated Vested Window
Participants or Prior to Normal Retirement Age for Active Window Participants.
For purposes of determining the amount of an immediately payable annuity under
this section 6.18 that commences—
(i)    prior to age 55, in the case of a Terminated Vested Window Participant
described in subsection (c)(2), or
(ii)    prior to a Participant’s Normal Retirement Age, in the case of an Active
Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1),
the value of the lump sum distribution potentially payable to such Participant
under paragraph (1) above shall be converted to a single life annuity, by
applying the same Actuarial Factors that were used to convert the Early
Retirement Age or age 65 annuity into the lump sum distribution (i.e., the IRS
Mortality Table and IRS Interest Rate described in section 6.11(b) of this Core
Document).The values of annuity payments in other forms shall be determined by
the applicable provisions of Article 6 of this Core Document.
(B)    Benefit Commencement between Age 55 and Normal Retirement Age for
Terminated Vested Window Participants or On or After Normal Retirement Age for
Active Window Participants. For purposes of determining the amount of an
immediately payable annuity to either—
(i)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant that commences on or after Age 55
and on or before Normal Retirement Age, or
(ii)    an Active Window Participant that commences on or after Normal
Retirement Age,
the values of annuity payments shall be determined by the applicable provisions
of Article 6 of this Core Document.
(g)Death After Election and Prior to Benefit Commencement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Article 6 of this Core Document, in the case of an
Eligible Window Participant who makes and files with the Administrator a valid
election under subsection (c) above, on or before the Offer Closing Date, to
receive a lump sum distribution or annuity payment, but who subsequently dies
prior to receiving that distribution (otherwise payable in April, 2021), such
election shall be deemed rescinded. A qualified preretirement survivor annuity
(as described in section 6.6(c) may be payable to a surviving spouse of the
Eligible Window Participant pursuant to section 6.6.
(h)Alternative Dates. Notwithstanding the various dates described above within
this section 6.18, the Administrator shall have discretion to offer the
temporary lump sum program during an alternative period of time, beginning as
early as November 2020; provided, however, that the incremental time periods
shall be comparable to those described above, and that Eligible Window
Participants shall be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the
program and make any and all elections associated with form of payment and
related matters.”

Eligible Window Participant may elect to receive a lump sum distribution or
other payment under the provisions of this section 6.19. Such date is expected
to be March 5, 2021; provided, however, that the Administrator may choose in its
sole and absolute discretion to permit extensions beyond such Offer Closing
Date, provided that any such extensions are applied on a uniform and
nondiscriminatory basis to all similarly situated persons.
(b)General. In addition to lump sum distributions for amounts not exceeding
$5,000 described in section 6.7 of the Core Document, a lump sum distribution
for amounts larger than $5,000 shall be made available to Eligible Window

These additional lump sum distributions shall only be made available for a
limited period of time, as described further below.
(c)Eligible Window Participants. The single lump sum payment option (as well as
the immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below), shall be
available to Active Window Participants, Terminated Vested Window Participants,
and Other Window Participants, as described in paragraphs (1)-(3) below, but
excluding any persons described in paragraph (4) below. These groups of eligible
Participants shall collectively be known as Eligible Window Participants.
(1)    Active Window Participants. The term Active Window Participants shall

(B)    are covered under the terms and provisions of this Appendix C,
(C)    who are alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, and
(D)    are not excluded under paragraph (4) below.

(A)    who is covered under the terms and provisions of this Appendix C, and
specifically including a Participant who is covered under the terms of Appendix
C and therefore eligible to receive a “past service benefit” (commonly referred
to as a “Wireless Participant”).

Determination Date, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (5) below, and

(E)    for whom the lump sum actuarial equivalent value of the Participant’s

(3)    Other Window Participants. In addition to Active Window Participants and
Terminated Vested Window Participants described above, any—
(A)    surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary or alternate payee whose
benefits are derived from any of the previously described groups of Window
Participants,
(B)    whose benefits under the Plan have not yet commenced, and
(C)    who is alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date,
shall be considered as Other Window Participants, and shall thereby be
designated as Eligible Window Participants; provided, however, that if a
Participant otherwise described in paragraph (1) or (2) above, or an alternate
payee is subject to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order which
requires payment (to that specific person) in a form other than a lump sum, such
Participant or alternate payee shall be treated as excluded under paragraph (4)
below.
(4)    Excluded Persons. Notwithstanding paragraphs (1)-(3) above, Participants
and other persons described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) above who are in
payment status shall not be Eligible Window Participants, except as otherwise
provided in paragraph (5) below. Similarly, Terminated Vested Window
Participants described in paragraphs (2) above who have attained age 65 prior to

1, 2020, and
(C)    who is determined by the Administrator not to have been fully informed of
the right to receive a lump sum distribution prior to the date on which his
benefits commenced,
shall be classified as an Eligible Window Participant, and eligible to make the
election described in this section 6.19, modified as described in the following
paragraph. Such determination shall be made in the sole and absolute discretion
of the Administrator, which shall be applied on a consistent, uniform, and
nondiscriminatory basis.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection (d) or (e) below, any
such Participant described above may elect between (i) receiving a lump sum
distribution, calculated as described in subsection (f)(1), but actuarially
reduced to reflect the value of annuity payments received, or (ii) continuing
the annuity payments in the same payment form as previously elected (and
currently in payment status).
(d)Notice and Election Period. The following provisions relating to notices and
elections shall be applicable to Eligible Window Participants.
(1)
Notification Dates and Timing Requirements. Eligible Window Participants were
initially notified of the availability of the option to receive a lump sum
distribution in May or June 2020. The formal notice describing all election
rights (comparable to the notice described in section 4.7(a)(5) of the Core
Document) will be distributed to Eligible Window Participants in January, 2021.

The lump sum distribution option described in subsection (b) above (and the
immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below) may only be elected
during the election period beginning after the formal notice has been provided,
and ending on the Offer Closing Date (as defined in subsection (a) above) (the
“Election Period”). Immediate annuity payments for Eligible Window Participants
who timely elect to receive such payments will be determined as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date. Similarly, lump sum distributions will be determined as of
the Lump Sum Determination Date.
The dates mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs, including the Offer Closing
Date and the Lump Sum Determination Date, are anticipated to be accurate, but
may need to be changed, and are permitted to be changed, in order to accommodate
unanticipated administrative or other delays or, alternatively, in accordance
with subsection (h) below. Regardless of the actual dates of notice and the
dates of the Election Period described above, Eligible Window Participants shall
be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the program described in
this section 6.19, and to make any and all elections relating to form of payment
and related matters.

(2)    Election, Waiver, Consent, and Revocation Requirements. In the case of
Eligible Window Participants who are married, the provisions of section 6.5
relating to notice requirements, Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity automatic
payment form, waiver of the automatic payment form, spousal consent, and related
requirements affecting the timing of the distribution, shall apply, except as
otherwise provided in this section 6.19 or section 6.7 of the Core Document
(relating to certain benefit amounts that do not exceed $5,000). In the case of
Eligible Window Participants (regardless of whether single or married), such
persons shall be notified of the lump sum distribution option, and also notified
of all applicable payment forms for which they are eligible, as described in
subsection (e).

In all cases, an Eligible Window Participant who elects to receive a lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity pursuant to this section 6.19 may subsequently
choose to revoke that election at any time prior to the Lump Sum Determination
Date (including the period of time after the Offer Closing Date, but prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date).

In addition to the election, waiver, and consent requirements described in the
preceding paragraph, Eligible Window Participants must comply with any
reasonable requests of the Administrator related to payment of a benefit payable
under this section 6.19, which requests shall be uniformly applied to similarly
situated persons. Such requests may relate to, for example, required
notarizations or proof of birthdate.
(3)    Failure to Submit an Election. For purposes of this section 6.19, an
Eligible Window Participant must make a “valid” election in order to receive a
lump sum distribution or an immediate annuity. This determination of whether an
Eligible Window Participant has made a “valid” election shall be made in the
sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator. An Eligible Window
Participant may make a valid election by signing and returning the election
confirmation form provided by the Administrator for this purpose.
Any Eligible Window Participant who does not submit a valid election hereunder
by the Offer Closing Date, in accordance with procedures established and
determined by the Administrator, shall not be eligible to receive the lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity described in this section 6.19.
(e)Immediate Annuity Option Payment Forms. In the case of any Eligible Window
Participant who is eligible to elect a lump sum distribution as described in
this section 6.19, such person shall alternatively be permitted to elect an
“immediately payable” annuity. Such immediately payable annuity shall be
available in the following payment forms, as further described in Article 6 of
this Appendix C, depending on the status of the Eligible Window Participant, and
shall be payable as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, as described above. Such
immediate annuity will commence under the terms of the Plan, and continue (as
applicable) under the terms of the irrevocable annuity contract from the
insurance company referenced in section 9.4(f).

An Eligible Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) or (c)(2) above
who is single may elect a single life annuity. If married, such person may elect
a single life annuity, a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or an Optional
Joint and Survivor Annuity. A Window Participant described in subsection (c)(3)
above may elect a life annuity (if a surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary),
or, if an alternate payee, may elect whatever payment forms are permissible,
taking into account the terms of the qualified domestic relations order and the
age of the applicable Participant as of the date of the alternate payee’s
benefit commencement.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, either—
(1)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant described in subsection (c)(2)
above who has attained age 55, or
(2)    an Active Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) above who has
attained Normal Retirement Age,
shall be eligible to elect all other optional payment forms described in this
Appendix C (if any).
(f)Determination of Amount of Lump Sum Distributions and Immediate Annuity
Payments. In the case of an Eligible Window Participant who elects under
subsection (d) to receive a lump sum distribution or immediate annuity described
in subsection (b) or (e) above, such benefit shall be calculated as of the Lump
Sum Determination Date, pursuant to the methodology described below, although
such amounts may not actually be distributed until a later date in December.
(1)    Lump Sum Distributions. The amount of a Participant’s lump sum
distribution under this section 6.19 shall be determined on the basis of the
lump sum Actuarial Assumptions described in section 6.11 of the Core Document.
For purposes of subparagraphs (A) and (B) below, Active Window Participants
described in subsection (c)(1) above shall be assumed to have terminated
employment with the Company and all Affiliated Employers immediately prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date.
(A)    Eligible Window Participants Who have not attained Age 55 as of Lump Sum
Determination Date. For Eligible Window Participants who have not yet attained
age 55 as of the Lump Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person
described in subsection (c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is
derived from such an Eligible Window Participant who has not yet attained age
55), the amount of the lump sum benefit shall be determined on the basis of the
benefit that such Participant or other person would have been entitled to
receive at age 55, as described in section 5.2 or 5.4 of the Core Document, but
in no event less than the lump sum value determined as of his Normal Retirement
Age.
(B)    Eligible Window Participants Who have attained Age 55 as of Lump Sum
Determination Date. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of an Eligible Window
Participant who is entitled to a benefit under section 5.2 or 5.4 of this
Appendix C as of the Lump Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person
described in subsection (c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is
derived from such an Eligible Window Participant entitled to such a benefit),
the lump sum value shall be determined on the basis of the annuity benefit that
such Participant would have been entitled to receive beginning on that Lump Sum
Determination Date. In no event, however, shall such lump sum value be less than
the lump sum determined as of the Participant’s Normal Retirement Age.
(2)    Immediate Annuity Payments to Certain Eligible Window Participants.
(A)    Benefit Commencement Prior to Age 55 for Terminated Vested Window
Participants or Prior to Normal Retirement Age for Active Window Participants.
For purposes of determining the amount of an immediately payable annuity under
this section 6.19 that commences—
(i)    prior to age 55, in the case of a Terminated Vested Window Participant
described in subsection (c)(2), or
(ii)    prior to a Participant’s Normal Retirement Age, in the case of an Active
Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1),
the value of the lump sum distribution potentially payable to such Participant
under paragraph (1) above shall be converted to a single life annuity, by
applying the same Actuarial Factors that were used to convert the Early
Retirement Age or age 65 annuity into the lump sum distribution (i.e., the IRS
Mortality Table and IRS Interest Rate described in section 6.11(b) of the Core
Document).The values of annuity payments in other forms shall be determined by
the applicable provisions of Article 6 of the Core Document.
(B)    Benefit Commencement between Age 55 and Normal Retirement Age for
Terminated Vested Window Participants or On or After Normal Retirement Age for
Active Window Participants. For purposes of determining the amount of an
immediately payable annuity to either—
(i)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant that commences on or after Age 55
and on or before Normal Retirement Age, or
(ii)    an Active Window Participant that commences on or after Normal
Retirement Age,
the values of annuity payments shall be determined by the applicable provisions
of Article 6 of the Core Document.
(g)Death After Election and Prior to Benefit Commencement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Article 6 of the Appendix C, in the case of an
Eligible Window Participant who makes and files with the Administrator a valid
election under subsection (c) above, on or before the Offer Closing Date, to
receive a lump sum distribution or annuity payment, but who subsequently dies
prior to receiving that distribution (otherwise payable in April, 2021), such
election shall be deemed rescinded. A qualified preretirement survivor annuity
(as described in section 6.6(c) of the Core Document may be payable to a
surviving spouse of the Eligible Window Participant pursuant to section 6.6 of
the Core Document.
(h)Alternative Dates. Notwithstanding the various dates described above within
this section 6.19, the Administrator shall have discretion to offer the
temporary lump sum program during an alternative period of time, beginning as
early as November 2020; provided, however, that the incremental time periods
shall be comparable to those described above, and that Eligible Window
Participants shall be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider
elections associated with form of payment and related matters.”

age 65 prior to the Lump Sum Determination Date shall not be Eligible Window
Participants.
(d)Notice and Election Period. The following provisions relating to notices and
elections shall be applicable to Eligible Window Participants.
(1)
Notification Dates and Timing Requirements. Eligible Window Participants were
initially notified of the availability of the option to receive a lump sum
distribution in May or June 2020. The formal notice describing all election
rights (comparable to the notice described in section 4.7(a)(5) of the Core
Document) will be distributed to Eligible Window Participants in January, 2021.

subsection (e).

In all cases, an Eligible Window Participant who elects to receive a lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity pursuant to this section 6.19 may subsequently

(3)    Failure to Submit an Election. For purposes of this section 6.19, an
Eligible Window Participant must make a “valid” election in order to receive a
lump sum distribution or an immediate annuity. This determination of whether an
Eligible Window Participant has made a “valid” election shall be made in the
sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator. An Eligible Window
Participant may make a valid election by signing and returning the election
confirmation form provided by the Administrator for this purpose.
Any Eligible Window Participant who does not submit a valid election hereunder
by the Offer Closing Date, in accordance with procedures established and
determined by the Administrator, shall not be eligible to receive the lump sum

(e)Immediate Annuity Option Payment Forms. In the case of any Eligible Window

this section 6.19, such person shall alternatively be permitted to elect an
“immediately payable” annuity. Such immediately payable annuity shall be

An Eligible Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) or (c)(2) above
who is single may elect a single life annuity. If married, such person may elect

described in subsection (c)(1) above shall be assumed to have terminated
employment with the Company and all Affiliated Employers immediately prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date.
(A)    Eligible Window Participants Who have not attained Age 55 as of Lump Sum
Determination Date. For Eligible Window Participants who have not yet attained
age 55 as of the Lump Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person
described in subsection (c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is
derived from such an Eligible Window Participant who has not yet attained age
55), the amount of the lump sum benefit shall be determined on the basis of the
benefit that such Participant or other person would have been entitled to
receive at age 55, as described in section 5.2 or 5.4 of the Core Document, but
in no event less than the lump sum value determined as of his Normal Retirement
Age.
(B)    Eligible Window Participants Who have attained Age 55 as of Lump Sum
Determination Date. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of an Eligible Window
Participant who is entitled to a benefit under section 5.2 or 5.4 of this
Appendix D as of the Lump Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person
described in subsection (c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is
derived from such an Eligible Window Participant entitled to such a benefit),
the lump sum value shall be determined on the basis of the annuity benefit that
such Participant would have been entitled to receive beginning on that Lump Sum
Determination Date. In no event, however, shall such lump sum value be less than
the lump sum determined as of the Participant’s Normal Retirement Age.
(C)    
(2)    Immediate Annuity Payments to Certain Eligible Window Participants.
(A)    Benefit Commencement Prior to Age 55 for Terminated Vested Window
Participants or Prior to Normal Retirement Age for Active Window Participants.
For purposes of determining the amount of an immediately payable annuity under

described in subsection (c)(2), or
(ii)    prior to a Participant’s Normal Retirement Age, in the case of an Active
Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1),
the value of the lump sum distribution potentially payable to such Participant
under paragraph (1) above shall be converted to a single life annuity, by
applying the same Actuarial Factors that were used to convert the Early
Retirement Age or age 65 annuity into the lump sum distribution (i.e., the IRS
Mortality Table and IRS Interest Rate described in section 6.11(b) of the Core
Document).The values of annuity payments in other forms shall be determined by

Limited Period of Time During 2020–2021.
(a)Definitions. For purposes of this section 6.19, the following definitions
will apply:
(1)    “Eligible Window Participant” means a Participant who is eligible to make
an election described in this section 6.19, as more fully described in
subsection (c) below.
(2)    “Lump Sum Determination Date” means April 1, 2021, the date as of which
lump sum distributions shall be calculated and payable, and the date as of which
immediate annuity payments may commence; provided, however, the actual date on
which a lump sum distribution is made or the initial annuity payment is made may
be a short period of time following this Lump Sum Determination Date.
(3)    “Offer Closing Date” means the latest permissible date on which an
Eligible Window Participant may elect to receive a lump sum distribution or
other payment under the provisions of this section 6.19. Such date is expected
to be March 5, 2021; provided, however, that the Administrator may choose in its
sole and absolute discretion to permit extensions beyond such Offer Closing
Date, provided that any such extensions are applied on a uniform and
nondiscriminatory basis to all similarly situated persons.
(b)General. In addition to lump sum distributions for amounts not exceeding
$5,000 described in section 6.7 of the Core Document, a lump sum distribution
for amounts larger than $5,000 shall be made available to Eligible Window

These additional lump sum distributions shall only be made available for a
limited period of time, as described further below.
(c)Eligible Window Participants. The single lump sum payment option (as well as
the immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below), shall be
available to Active Window Participants, Terminated Vested Window Participants,
and Other Window Participants, as described in paragraphs (1)-(3) below, but
excluding any persons described in paragraph (4) below. These groups of eligible
Participants shall collectively be known as Eligible Window Participants.
(1)    Active Window Participants. The term Active Window Participants shall

below,
(B)    are covered under the terms and provisions of this Appendix E, who are
alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, and
(C)    are not excluded under paragraph (4) below.

(A)    who is covered under the terms and provisions of this Appendix E, and
specifically including a Participant who is covered under the terms of Appendix
E and therefore eligible to receive a “past service benefit” (commonly referred

designated as Eligible Window Participants; provided, however, that if a
Participant otherwise described in paragraph (1) or (2) above, or an alternate
payee is subject to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order which
requires payment (to that specific person) in a form other than a lump sum, such
Participant or alternate payee shall be treated as excluded under paragraph (4)
below .
(4)    Excluded Persons. Notwithstanding paragraphs (1)-(3) above, Participants
and other persons described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) above who are in
payment status shall not be Eligible Window Participants. Similarly, Terminated
Vested Window Participants described in paragraphs (2) above who have attained
their Normal Retirement Date prior to the Lump Sum Determination Date shall not
be Eligible Window Participants.
(d)Notice and Election Period. The following provisions relating to notices and
elections shall be applicable to Eligible Window Participants.
(1)
Notification Dates and Timing Requirements. Eligible Window Participants were
initially notified of the availability of the option to receive a lump sum
distribution in May or June 2020. The formal notice describing all election
rights (comparable to the notice described in section 4.7(a)(5) of the Core
Document) will be distributed to Eligible Window Participants in January, 2021.
The lump sum distribution option described in subsection (b) above (and the
immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below) may only be elected
during the election period beginning after the formal notice has been provided,
and ending on the Offer Closing Date (as defined in subsection (a) above) (the
“Election Period”). Immediate annuity payments for Eligible Window Participants
who timely elect to receive such payments will be determined as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date. Similarly, lump sum distributions will be determined as of
the Lump Sum Determination Date.

The dates mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs, including the Offer Closing
Date and the Lump Sum Determination Date, are anticipated to be accurate, but
may need to be changed, and are permitted to be changed, in order to accommodate
unanticipated administrative or other delays or, alternatively, in accordance
with subsection (h) below. Regardless of the actual dates of notice and the
dates of the Election Period described above, Eligible Window Participants shall
be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the program described in
this section 6.19, and to make any and all elections relating to form of payment
and related matters.

(2)    Election, Waiver, Consent, and Revocation Requirements. In the case of
Eligible Window Participants who are married, the provisions of section 6.5
relating to notice requirements, Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity automatic
payment form, waiver of the automatic payment form, spousal consent, and related
requirements affecting the timing of the distribution, shall apply, except as
otherwise provided in this section 6.19 or section 6.7 of the Core Document
(relating to certain benefit amounts that do not exceed $5,000). In the case of
Eligible Window Participants (regardless of whether single or married), such
persons shall be notified of the lump sum distribution option, and also notified
of all applicable payment forms for which they are eligible, as described in
subsection (e).

In all cases, an Eligible Window Participant who elects to receive a lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity pursuant to this section 6.19 may subsequently
choose to revoke that election at any time prior to the Lump Sum Determination
Date (including the period of time after the Offer Closing Date, but prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date).

In addition to the election, waiver, and consent requirements described in the
preceding paragraph, Eligible Window Participants must comply with any
reasonable requests of the Administrator related to payment of a benefit payable
under this section 6.19, which requests shall be uniformly applied to similarly
situated persons. Such requests may relate to, for example, required
notarizations or proof of birthdate.
(3)    Failure to Submit an Election. For purposes of this section 6.19, an
Eligible Window Participant must make a “valid” election in order to receive a
lump sum distribution or an immediate annuity. This determination of whether an
Eligible Window Participant has made a “valid” election shall be made in the
sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator. An Eligible Window
Participant may make a valid election by signing and returning the election
confirmation form provided by the Administrator for this purpose.
Any Eligible Window Participant who does not submit a valid election hereunder
by the Offer Closing Date, in accordance with procedures established and
determined by the Administrator, shall not be eligible to receive the lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity described in this section 6.19.
(e)Immediate Annuity Option Payment Forms. In the case of any Eligible Window
Participant who is eligible to elect a lump sum distribution as described in
this section 6.19, such person shall alternatively be permitted to elect an
“immediately payable” annuity. Such immediately payable annuity shall be
available in the following payment forms, as further described in Article 6 of
this Appendix E, depending on the status of the Eligible Window Participant, and
shall be payable as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, as described above. Such
immediate annuity will commence under the terms of the Plan, and continue (as
applicable) under the terms of the irrevocable annuity contract from the
insurance company referenced in section 9.4(f),

An Eligible Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) or (c)(2) above
who is single may elect a single life annuity. If married, such person may elect
a single life annuity, a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or an Optional
Joint and Survivor Annuity. A Window Participant described in subsection (c)(3)
above may elect a life annuity (if a surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary),
or, if an alternate payee, may elect whatever payment forms are permissible,
taking into account the terms of the qualified domestic relations order and the
age of the applicable Participant as of the date of the alternate payee’s
benefit commencement.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, either—
(1)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant described in subsection (c)(2)
above who has attained Early retirement Age (whether before or after termination
of employment from the employer), or
(2)    an Active Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) above who has
attained Normal Retirement Age,
shall be eligible to elect all other optional payment forms described in this
Appendix E (if any).
(f)Determination of Amount of Lump Sum Distributions and Immediate Annuity
Payments. In the case of an Eligible Window Participant who elects under
subsection (d) to receive a lump sum distribution or immediate annuity described
in subsection (b) or (e) above, such benefit shall be calculated as of the Lump
Sum Determination Date, pursuant to the methodology described below, although
such amounts may not actually be distributed until a later date in December.
(1)    Lump Sum Distributions. The amount of a Participant’s lump sum
distribution under this section 6.19 shall be determined on the basis of the
lump sum Actuarial Assumptions described in section 6.11 of the Core Document.
For purposes of subparagraphs (A) and (B) below, Active Window Participants
described in subsection (c)(1) above shall be assumed to have terminated
employment with the Company and all Affiliated Employers immediately prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date.
(A)    Eligible Window Participants Who have not attained Early Retirement Date
as of Lump Sum Determination Date. For Eligible Window Participants who are not
yet entitled to an early retirement or terminated vested benefit as of the Lump
Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person described in subsection
(c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is derived from such an
Eligible Window Participant not entitled to an early retirement benefit), the
amount of the lump sum benefit shall be determined on the basis of the benefit
that such Participant or other person would have been entitled to receive at his
Early Retirement Date, as described in section 6.2 or 6.4 of this Appendix E,
but in no event less than the lump sum value determined as of his Normal
Retirement Age. 
(B)    Eligible Window Participants Who have attained Early Retirement Date as
of Lump Sum Determination Date. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of an
Eligible Window Participant who is entitled to an early retirement or terminated
vested benefit under section 6.2 or 6.4 of this Appendix E as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date (or, in the case of a person described in subsection
(c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is derived from such an
Eligible Window Participant entitled to an early retirement or terminated vested
benefit), the lump sum value shall be determined on the basis of the annuity
benefit that such Participant would have been entitled to receive beginning on
that Lump Sum Determination Date. In no event, however, shall such lump sum
value be less than the lump sum determined as of the Participant’s Normal
Retirement Age.
(2)    Immediate Annuity Payments to Certain Eligible Window Participants.
(A)    Benefit Commencement Prior to Early Retirement Age or Normal Retirement
Age. For purposes of determining the amount of an immediately payable annuity
under this section 6.19 that commences—
(i)    prior to a Participant’s Early Retirement Age (whether or not the
Participant has terminated employment from the Employer), in the case of a
Terminated Vested Window Participant described in subsection (c)(2), or
(ii)    prior to a Participant’s Normal Retirement Age, in the case of an Active
Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1),
the value of the lump sum distribution potentially payable to such Participant
under paragraph (1) above shall be converted to a single life annuity, by
applying the same Actuarial Factors that were used to convert the Early
Retirement Age or age 65 annuity into the lump sum distribution (i.e., the IRS
Mortality Table and IRS Interest Rate described in section 6.11(b) of the Core
Document).The values of annuity payments in other forms shall be determined by
the applicable provisions of Article 6 of the Core Document.
(B)    Benefit Commencement between Early Retirement Age and Normal Retirement
Age for Terminated Vested Window Participants or On or After Normal Retirement
Age for Active Window Participants. For purposes of determining the amount of an
immediately payable annuity to either—
(i)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant that commences on or after Early
Retirement Age and on or before Normal Retirement Age, or
(ii)    an Active Window Participant that commences on or after Normal
Retirement Age,
the values of annuity payments shall be determined by the applicable provisions
of Article 6 of this Core Document.
(g)Death After Election and Prior to Benefit Commencement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Article 6 of Appendix E, in the case of an Eligible
Window Participant who makes and files with the Administrator a valid election
under subsection (c) above, on or before the Offer Closing Date, to receive a
lump sum distribution or annuity payment, but who subsequently dies prior to
receiving that distribution (otherwise payable in April, 2021), such election
shall be deemed rescinded. A qualified preretirement survivor annuity (as
described in section 6.6(c) of the Core Document may be payable to a surviving
spouse of the Eligible Window Participant pursuant to section 6.6 of the Core
Document.
(h)Alternative Dates. Notwithstanding the various dates described above within
this section 6.19, the Administrator shall have discretion to offer the
temporary lump sum program during an alternative period of time, beginning as
early as November 2020; provided, however, that the incremental time periods
shall be comparable to those described above, and that Eligible Window
Participants shall be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the
program and make any and all elections associated with form of payment and
related matters.”

temporary lump sum program during an alternative period of time, beginning as
early as November 2020; provided, however, that the incremental time periods
shall be comparable to those described above, and that Eligible Window
Participants shall be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the
program and make any and all elections associated with form of payment and
related matters.”
(i)

Changes to Appendix G
24.    Article 6 of Appendix G is amended to include a new section 6.19 to read
as follows, effective as of August 1, 2020:
“6.19 Lump Sum Option Available to Terminated Vested and Active Participants for
Limited Period of Time During 2020–2021.
(a)Definitions. For purposes of this section 6.19, the following definitions
will apply:
(1)    “Eligible Window Participant” means a Participant who is eligible to make
an election described in this section 6.19, as more fully described in
subsection (c) below.
(2)    “Lump Sum Determination Date” means April 1, 2021, the date as of which
lump sum distributions shall be calculated and payable, and the date as of which
immediate annuity payments may commence; provided, however, the actual date on
which a lump sum distribution is made or the initial annuity payment is made may
be a short period of time following this Lump Sum Determination Date.
(3)    “Offer Closing Date” means the latest permissible date on which an
Eligible Window Participant may elect to receive a lump sum distribution or
other payment under the provisions of this section 6.19. Such date is expected
to be March 5, 2021; provided, however, that the Administrator may choose in its
sole and absolute discretion to permit extensions beyond such Offer Closing
Date, provided that any such extensions are applied on a uniform and
nondiscriminatory basis to all similarly situated persons.
(b)General. In addition to lump sum distributions for amounts not exceeding
$5,000 described in section 6.7 of the Core Document, a lump sum distribution
for amounts larger than $5,000 shall be made available to Eligible Window
Participants, as further described in subsection (c) below.

These additional lump sum distributions shall only be made available for a
limited period of time, as described further below.
(c)Eligible Window Participants. The single lump sum payment option (as well as
the immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below), shall be
available to Active Window Participants, Terminated Vested Window Participants,
and Other Window Participants, as described in paragraphs (1)-(3) below, but
excluding any persons described in paragraph (4) below. These groups of eligible
Participants shall collectively be known as Eligible Window Participants.
(1)    Active Window Participants. The term Active Window Participants shall
include all Participants who—
(A)    are actively employed by the Company or an Affiliated Employer as of the
date just before formal notice is provided, as described in subsection (d)(1)
below,
(B)    are covered under the terms and provisions of this Appendix G,
(C)    who are alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, and
(D)    are not excluded under paragraph (4) below.
(2)    Terminated Vested Window Participants. Unless excluded under paragraph
(4), an Eligible Window Participant means a Participant—
(A)    who is covered under the terms and provisions of this Appendix G, and
specifically including a Participant who is covered under the terms of Appendix
G and therefore eligible to receive a “past service benefit” (commonly referred
to as a “Wireless Participant”).
(B)    who has terminated employment with the Company and all Affiliated
Employers on a date before the date on which formal notice is provided, as
described in subsection (d)(1) below,
(C)    who is alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date,
(D)    who is entitled to a retirement benefit under Article 6 of this Appendix
G, and such benefit has not commenced to be paid (in the form of an annuity) and
has not been paid out completely (in the form of a lump sum) as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date, and
(E)    for whom the lump sum actuarial equivalent value of the Participant’s
benefit, determined on the basis of the Actuarial Assumptions described in
section 6.11 of the Core Document, and based on the methodology described in
subsection (f) below, exceeds $5,000,
shall be classified as a Terminated Vested Participants for purposes of this
section 6.19.
(3)    Other Window Participants. In addition to Active Window Participants and
Terminated Vested Window Participants described above, any—
(A)    surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary or alternate payee whose
benefits are derived from any of the previously described groups of Window
Participants,
(B)    whose benefits under the Plan have not yet commenced, and
(C)    who is alive as of the Lump Sum Determination Date,
shall be considered as Other Window Participants, and shall thereby be
designated as Eligible Window Participants; provided, however, that if a
Participant otherwise described in paragraph (1) or (2) above, or an alternate
payee is subject to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order which
requires payment (to that specific person) in a form other than a lump sum, such
Participant or alternate payee shall be treated as excluded under paragraph (4)
below.
(4)    Excluded Persons. Notwithstanding paragraphs (1)-(3) above, Participants
and other persons described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) above who are in
payment status shall not be Eligible Window Participants. Similarly, Terminated
Vested Window Participants described in paragraphs (2) above who have attained
age 65 prior to the Lump Sum Determination Date shall not Eligible Window
Participants.
(d)Notice and Election Period. The following provisions relating to notices and
elections shall be applicable to Eligible Window Participants.
(1)
Notification Dates and Timing Requirements. Eligible Window Participants were
initially notified of the availability of the option to receive a lump sum
distribution in May or June 2020. The formal notice describing all election
rights (comparable to the notice described in section 4.7(a)(5) of the Core
Document) will be distributed to Eligible Window Participants in January, 2021.

The lump sum distribution option described in subsection (b) above (and the
immediate annuity option described in subsection (e) below) may only be elected
during the election period beginning after the formal notice has been provided,
and ending on the Offer Closing Date (as defined in subsection (a) above) (the
“Election Period”). Immediate annuity payments for Eligible Window Participants
who timely elect to receive such payments will be determined as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date. Similarly, lump sum distributions will be determined as of
the Lump Sum Determination Date.

The dates mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs, including the Offer Closing
Date and the Lump Sum Determination Date, are anticipated to be accurate, but
may need to be changed, and are permitted to be changed, in order to accommodate
unanticipated administrative or other delays or, alternatively, in accordance
with subsection (h) below. Regardless of the actual dates of notice and the
dates of the Election Period described above, Eligible Window Participants shall
be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the program described in
this section 6.19, and to make any and all elections relating to form of payment
and related matters.

(2)    Election, Waiver, Consent, and Revocation Requirements. In the case of
Eligible Window Participants who are married, the provisions of section 6.5
relating to notice requirements, Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity automatic
payment form, waiver of the automatic payment form, spousal consent, and related
requirements affecting the timing of the distribution, shall apply, except as
otherwise provided in this section 6.19 or section 6.7 of the Core Document
(relating to certain benefit amounts that do not exceed $5,000). In the case of
Eligible Window Participants (regardless of whether single or married), such
persons shall be notified of the lump sum distribution option, and also notified
of all applicable payment forms for which they are eligible, as described in
subsection (e).

In all cases, an Eligible Window Participant who elects to receive a lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity pursuant to this section 6.19 may subsequently
choose to revoke that election at any time prior to the Lump Sum Determination
Date (including the period of time after the Offer Closing Date, but prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date).

In addition to the election, waiver, and consent requirements described in the
preceding paragraph, Eligible Window Participants must comply with any
reasonable requests of the Administrator related to payment of a benefit payable
under this section 6.19, which requests shall be uniformly applied to similarly
situated persons. Such requests may relate to, for example, required
notarizations or proof of birthdate.
(3)    Failure to Submit an Election. For purposes of this section 6.19, an
Eligible Window Participant must make a “valid” election in order to receive a
lump sum distribution or an immediate annuity. This determination of whether an
Eligible Window Participant has made a “valid” election shall be made in the
sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator. An Eligible Window
Participant may make a valid election by signing and returning the election
confirmation form provided by the Administrator for this purpose.
Any Eligible Window Participant who does not submit a valid election hereunder
by the Offer Closing Date, in accordance with procedures established and
determined by the Administrator, shall not be eligible to receive the lump sum
distribution or immediate annuity described in this section 6.19.
(e)Immediate Annuity Option Payment Forms. In the case of any Eligible Window
Participant who is eligible to elect a lump sum distribution as described in
this section 6.19, such person shall alternatively be permitted to elect an
“immediately payable” annuity. Such immediately payable annuity shall be
available in the following payment forms, as further described in Article 6 of
this Appendix G, depending on the status of the Eligible Window Participant, and
shall be payable as of the Lump Sum Determination Date, as described above. Such
immediate annuity will commence under the terms of the Plan, and continue (as
applicable) under the terms of the irrevocable annuity contract from the
insurance company referenced in section 9.4(f).

An Eligible Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) or (c)(2) above
who is single may elect a single life annuity. If married, such person may elect
a single life annuity, a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or an Optional
Joint and Survivor Annuity. A Window Participant described in subsection (c)(3)
above may elect a life annuity (if a surviving spouse or nonspouse beneficiary),
or, if an alternate payee, may elect whatever payment forms are permissible,
taking into account the terms of the qualified domestic relations order and the
age of the applicable Participant as of the date of the alternate payee’s
benefit commencement.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, either—
(1)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant described in subsection (c)(2)
above who has attained Early Retirement Age (whether before or after termination
of employment from the Employer), as described in section 5.3 or 5.5 of this
Appendix G, or
(2)    an Active Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1) above who has
attained Normal Retirement Age,
shall be eligible to elect all other optional payment forms described in this
Appendix G (if any)
(f)Determination of Amount of Lump Sum Distributions and Immediate Annuity
Payments. In the case of an Eligible Window Participant who elects under
subsection (d) to receive a lump sum distribution or immediate annuity described
in subsection (b) or (e) above, such benefit shall be calculated as of the Lump
Sum Determination Date, pursuant to the methodology described below, although
such amounts may not actually be distributed until a later date in December.
(1)    Lump Sum Distributions. The amount of a Participant’s lump sum
distribution under this section 6.19 shall be determined on the basis of the
lump sum Actuarial Assumptions described in section 6.11 of the Core Document.
For purposes of subparagraphs (A) and (B) below, Active Window Participants
described in subsection (c)(1) above shall be assumed to have terminated
employment with the Company and all Affiliated Employers immediately prior to
the Lump Sum Determination Date.
(A)    Eligible Window Participants Who have not attained Early Retirement Date
as of Lump Sum Determination Date. For Eligible Window Participants who are not
yet entitled to an early retirement or terminated vested benefit as of the Lump
Sum Determination Date (or, in the case of a person described in subsection
(c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is derived from such an
Eligible Window Participant not entitled to an early retirement benefit), the
amount of the lump sum benefit shall be determined on the basis of the benefit
that such Participant or other person would have been entitled to receive at his
Early Retirement Date, as described in section 5.3 or 5.5 of this Appendix G,
but in no event less than the lump sum value determined as of his Normal
Retirement Age. 
(B)    Eligible Window Participants Who have attained Early Retirement Date as
of Lump Sum Determination Date. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of an
Eligible Window Participant who is entitled to an early retirement or terminated
vested benefit under section 5.3 or 5.5 of this Appendix G as of the Lump Sum
Determination Date (or, in the case of a person described in subsection
(c)(3)(A) above, such a person whose Plan benefit is derived from such an
Eligible Window Participant entitled to an early retirement or terminated vested
benefit), the lump sum value shall be determined on the basis of the annuity
benefit that such Participant would have been entitled to receive beginning on
that Lump Sum Determination Date. In no event, however, shall such lump sum
value be less than the lump sum determined as of the Participant’s Normal
Retirement Age.
(2)    Immediate Annuity Payments to Certain Eligible Window Participants.
(A)    Benefit Commencement Prior to Early Retirement Age or Normal Retirement
Age. For purposes of determining the amount of an immediately payable annuity
under this section 6.19 that commences—
(i)    prior to a Participant’s Early Retirement Age (whether or not the
Participant has terminated employer from the Employer), in the case of a
Terminated Vested Window Participant described in subsection (c)(2), or
(ii)    prior to a Participant’s Normal Retirement Age, in the case of an Active
Window Participant described in subsection (c)(1),
the value of the lump sum distribution potentially payable to such Participant
under paragraph (1) above shall be converted to a single life annuity, by
applying the same Actuarial Factors that were used to convert the Early
Retirement Age or age 65 annuity into the lump sum distribution (i.e., the IRS
Mortality Table and IRS Interest Rate described in section 6.11(b) of the Core
Document).The values of annuity payments in other forms shall be determined by
the applicable provisions of Article 6 of the Core Document.
(B)    Benefit Commencement between Early Retirement Age and Normal Retirement
Age for Terminated Vested Window Participants or On or After Normal Retirement
Age for Active Window Participants. For purposes of determining the amount of an
immediately payable annuity to either—
(i)    a Terminated Vested Window Participant that commences on or after Early
Retirement Age and on or before Normal Retirement Age, or
(ii)    an Active Window Participant that commences on or after Normal
Retirement Age,
the values of annuity payments shall be determined by the applicable provisions
of Article 6 of this Core Document.
(g)Death After Election and Prior to Benefit Commencement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Article 6 of Appendix G, in the case of an Eligible
Window Participant who makes and files with the Administrator a valid election
under subsection (c) above, on or before the Offer Closing Date, to receive a
lump sum distribution or annuity payment, but who subsequently dies prior to
receiving that distribution (otherwise payable in April, 2021), such election
shall be deemed rescinded. A qualified preretirement survivor annuity (as
described in section 6.6(c) of the Core Document may be payable to a surviving
spouse of the Eligible Window Participant pursuant to section 6.6 of the Core
Document.
(h)Alternative Dates. Notwithstanding the various dates described above within
this section 6.19, the Administrator shall have discretion to offer the
temporary lump sum program during an alternative period of time, beginning as
early as November 2020; provided, however, that the incremental time periods
shall be comparable to those described above, and that Eligible Window
Participants shall be permitted a minimum of 30 days in order to consider the
program and make any and all elections associated with form of payment and
related matters.”
