EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT PLAN

 

INTRODUCTION

 

Effective as of August 20, 1999, EG&G Technical Services, Inc. adopts the EG&G
Technical Services, Inc. Employees Retirement Plan as a program for providing
retirement income and other benefits for the benefit of certain of its employees
and their beneficiaries.

 

It is intended that this Plan and the trust used to provide benefits hereunder
shall at all times be qualified and tax-exempt within the meaning of Sections
401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as now in effect or
hereafter amended, and any other applicable provisions of law.

 

The Plan is a successor to the EG&G, Inc. Employees Retirement Plan, as it
related to employees and former employees of the Technical Services Division of
EG&G, Inc. (the “Prior Plan”).

 

Except as specified herein, the provisions of the Plan as contained herein shall
apply only to those persons who are in the service of the Employer (as defined
herein) on or after August 20, 1999 or who were participants in the Prior Plan
immediately prior thereto.

 

This Plan is amended and restated as of January 4, 2014.

 

Effective January 7, 2010, EG&G Technical Services, Inc. changed its name to
“URS Federal Technical Services, Inc.”  As a result, the name of the Plan was
changed to “URS Federal Technical Services, Inc. Employees Retirement Plan.”

 

Effective January 4, 2014, URS Federal Technical Services, Inc. was merged into
URS Federal Services, Inc., which became a successor employer under the Plan. 
At this time the name of the Plan was changed to “URS Federal Services, Inc.
Employees Retirement Plan.”

ARTICLE III
SERVICE

all service with the Employer rendered by an Employee counts as Service.  A
Computation Period described in Section 1.49 counts as a full Year of Service. 
A Computation Period in which an Employee completes at least 1,000 Hours of

who has not become 100 percent vested in accordance with Section 4.4 has a Break
in Service in which the number of consecutive one-year Breaks in Service equals

sentence by reason of any earlier Break in Service, the service rendered before
the Break in Service shall be excluded from his Vesting Service.

leave of absence approved by the Employer shall not be considered as a Break in
Service.  Under rules uniformly applicable to all Employees similarly situated,
the Employer shall credit Vesting Service for any portion of that period of
leave that is not counted as Vesting Service under paragraph (a) of this
Section, provided that the Employee returns to Service at or before the end of
such leave of absence.  An Employee who fails to return to Service at or before
the end of such a leave of absence will be considered to have incurred a
Separation from Service as of the later of (i) the last day of Service with an
Employer or (ii) the date on which the Employee’s failure to return was due to
his death, Disability or retirement in accordance with Section 4.1 or 4.2.

 

A period during which an Employee is laid off due to a reduction in work force
shall not be considered as a Break in Service.  Under rules uniformly applicable
to all Employees similarly situated, the Employer shall credit Vesting Service
for the period of layoff that

 

14

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

 

is not counted as Vesting Service under paragraph (a) of this Section, provided
that the Employee returns to Service within the one-year period following the
beginning of the layoff.  An Employee who fails to return to Service before the
end of such one-year period will be considered to have incurred a Separation
from Service as of the last day of Service with an Employer.

 

3.2                               Credited Service

 

(a)                                 A Participant who normally works the regular
full-time work week for his Employer, whether or not considered a regular or
temporary Employee by the Employer, shall be credited with a full year of
Credited Service for each calendar year of his employment with an Employer,
other than as a Covered Contract Employee.  If a Participant described in the
previous sentence completes less than a full year of Credited Service for the
calendar year in which his Employment Commencement Date or Separation from
Service occurs, he shall be credited with one-twelfth (1/12) of a year of
Credited Service for each month of employment with an Employer, rounded to the
nearest month.  For the calendar month of a Participant’s Separation from
Service, a Participant is credited with the month if his Separation from Service
is on or after the 15th of the month.  For the calendar month of a Participant’s
Employment Commencement Date, a Participant is credited with the month if his
Employment Commencement Date is on or before the 15th of the month.  For the
purpose of determining Credited Service under this Section 3.2(a), Service shall
be measured under the elapsed time method as authorized under regulations
promulgated by the Secretary of Labor.

 

(b)                                 A Participant who does not normally work the
regular full-time work week for his Employer, whether or not considered a
regular or temporary Employee by the Employer, shall be credited with
one-twelfth (1/12) of a year of Credited Service for each 173-1/3 Hours of
Service completed as an Employee during a Computation Period, other than a
Covered Contract Employee, described in this paragraph (b).

 

15

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

 

(c)                                  A Participant shall be credited with
Credited Service for any period during which he is on an approved leave of
absence for medical or military reasons that is counted as Vesting Service as
provided in Section 3.1(b).  The Earnings for a period of absence that is
counted as Credited Service shall be the Participant’s rate of Earnings in
effect immediately before the period of absence.

 

(d)                                 A Participant who goes from normally working
the regular full-time work week for his Employer to not normally working the
regular full-time work week for his Employer and vice versa shall be credited
with Credited Service for the month depending on his or her employment status of
the 15th day of the month.

 

3.3                               Restoration of Retired Participant or Other
Former Employee to Service

 

(a)                                 If a Participant in receipt of a Retirement
Income is restored to service as an Eligible Employee on or after his Normal
Retirement Date, the following shall apply:

 

(i)                                     His Retirement Income shall be suspended
for each month during the period of restoration that constitutes a “month of
suspension service” and.  he shall be granted Credited Service with respect to
such periods of restoration as otherwise provided by Section 3.2.  A month of
suspension service is a month in which the Participant completes at least 40
Hours of Service with the Employer.

 

(ii)                                  If the Participant’s death occurs during
the period of restoration, any Retirement Income to which he would have been
entitled had he retired immediately prior to his date of death, based on the
benefit formula then in effect and his Earnings and Credited Service before and
after the period when he was not in the service of the Employer, reduced by an
amount of Equivalent Actuarial Value to the benefits he received before the date
of his restoration to service, shall be payable to his surviving Spouse or,

 

16

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

 

alternatively, any payments under an optional benefit, if one has been elected
and become effective, shall begin.

 

(iii)                               Upon later retirement, payment of the
Participant’s Retirement Income, based on the benefit formula then in effect and
his Earnings and Credited Service before and after the period when he was not in
the service of the Employer, reduced by an amount of Equivalent Actuarial Value
to the benefits he received before the date of his restoration to service, shall
begin no later than the third month after the month in which the Participant
ceases to be employed in suspension service and shall be adjusted, if necessary,
to recover Retirement Income payments erroneously made after his restoration to
service, in compliance with Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations,
Section 2530.203-3 in a consistent and nondiscriminatory manner.

 

(b)                                 If a Participant in receipt of Retirement

(iii)                               Upon later retirement or termination his
Retirement Income shall be based on the benefit formula then in effect and his
Earnings and Credited Service before and after the period when he was not in the
service of the Employer, reduced by an amount of Equivalent Actuarial Value to
the benefits he received before the date of his restoration to service.

 

(iv)                              The part of the Participant’s Retirement
Income upon later retirement payable with respect to Credited Service rendered
before his previous Separation from Service shall never be less than the amount
of his

 

17

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

 

previous Retirement Income modified to reflect any option in effect on his later
retirement.

 

(c)                                  If a Participant not in receipt of a
Retirement Income or a former Participant is restored to service without having
had a Break in Service, his Vesting Service and Credited Service shall be
determined as provided in Sections 3.1, and 3.2, and, if applicable, he shall
again become a Participant as of his Reemployment Commencement Date.

 

(d)                                 If a Participant not in receipt of a
Retirement Income or a former Participant who received a single-sum settlement
in lieu of his Retirement Income is restored to service with the Employer after
having had a Break in Service, the following shall apply:

previously entitled shall be restored to him, and, if applicable, he shall again
become a Participant as of his.  Reemployment Commencement Date.

Participant whose previous Vesting Service has been restored under this

in effect and his Earnings and Credited Service after the period when he was not
in the service of the Employer.

 

(e)                                  If any other former Participant is restored
to service with the Employer after having had a Break in Service, the following
shall apply:

 

(i)                                     He shall again become a Participant as
of his Reemployment Commencement Date.

 

18

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

 

(ii)                                  The Vesting Service to which he was
previously entitled shall be restored to him, except that with respect to a
former Participant who had not completed five Years of Vesting Service, such
Vesting Service shall be restored to him if the total number of consecutive
one-year Breaks in Service does not equal or exceed five.

 

(iii)                               Any Credited Service to which the
Participant was entitled at the time of his Separation from Service that is
included in the Vesting Service so restored shall be restored to him.

ARTICLE IV
ELIGIBILITY FOR AND AMOUNT OF PENSION

 

4.1                               Normal Retirement

 

(a)                                 The right of a Participant to his normal
Retirement Income shall be nonforfeitable on attainment of his Normal Retirement
Age.  A Participant may retire from service on a normal Retirement Income
beginning on his Normal Retirement Date or he may postpone his retirement and
remain in service after his Normal Retirement Date.

 

If the Participant postpones his retirement, he shall be retired from service on
a normal Retirement Income beginning on the first day of the calendar month
immediately after the Human Resources Committee receives his written application
to retire.

 

If a Participant’s retirement is postponed beyond his Normal Retirement Date,
then he shall be granted Credited Service, as otherwise provided in this Plan,
with respect to all periods beginning on and after his Normal Retirement Date. 
Such a Participant’s Retirement Income shall be determined on the basis of his
Credited Service and Earnings both before and after his Normal Retirement Date.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant was not given a notice of
suspension of benefits in accordance with Section 411(a)(3)(B) of the Code, the
Participant’s Accrued Benefit as of the end of each Plan Year following his
Normal Retirement Date shall be the greater of the amount described in the
preceding sentence or the Equivalent Actuarial Value of his Accrued Benefit,
determined as of the later of his Normal Retirement Date or the end of the prior
Plan Year.  If a Participant’s Accrued Benefit is actuarially increased under
the preceding sentence, such actuarial increase shall be reduced by any
actuarial increase of his Accrued Benefit under Section 5.4(b) because the
Participant remains an Employee after attaining age 70½.

 

20

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

 

(b)                                 Effective January 1, 2004 and subject to the
provisions of Section 5.1, the normal monthly Retirement Income payable upon
retirement on or after Normal Retirement Date shall be equal to greater of
(i) or (ii), where

 

(i)                                     Equals the sum of (A) and (B), where

 

(A)                               Equals the benefit accrued as of December 31,
2003 and determined as one-twelfth of the sum of (1) 0.85% of the Participant’s
Average Earnings determined as of December 31, 2003, multiplied by the
Participant’s Credited Service as of December 31, 2003, plus (2) an additional
0.75% of the Participant’s Average Earnings, determined as of December 31, 2003,
in excess of the Social Security Tax Base determined as of December 31, 2003
multiplied by the Participant’s Credited Service as of December 31, 2003  (up to
a maximum of 35 years),

 

and

 

(B)                               Equals for each individual one-twelfth of the
sum of the following calculations for each calendar year beginning after
December 31, 2003 that such individual is a Participant: (1) 0.65% of the
individual’s Earnings while a Participant for such year, plus (2) an additional
0.65% of the individual’s Earnings while a Participant for such year in excess
of 50% of the Social Security Wage Base for the applicable year, provided that
for purposes of the calculation made pursuant to this Section 4.1(b)(i)(B)(2) no
Earnings of an individual whether as a Participant or not shall be included once
such individual has completed 35 years of Credited Service.

 

(ii)                                  Equals $70.83.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Plan to the contrary, the Accrued Benefit of a Participant as determined under
Section 4.1(b) shall not be less

 

21

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

 

than the Accrued Benefit of such Participant on December 31, 2003 as calculated
under the provisions of the Plan as in effect on December 31, 2003 prior to this
Amendment.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1, the monthly normal Retirement Income
payable upon retirement on or after Normal Retirement Date of a Participant who
participated in the EG&G Mound Applied Technologies, Inc. Salaried Employees’
Pension Plan or the EG&G Mound Applied Technologies, Inc. Hourly Paid Employees’
Pension Plan (the “Mound Plans”) prior to participating in the Prior Plan prior
to September 30, 1997 shall be equal to his Accrued Benefit, subject to
adjustment as provided in this Section 4.1(c).  Such Accrued Benefit shall first
be increased by adding thereto the Participant’s monthly accrued benefits under
the Mound Plans, determined in accordance with the provisions thereof in effect
on September 30, 1997.  Such adjusted Accrued Benefit shall then be offset by
the Accrued Benefit attributable to service described in Section 1.26, based on
Average Earnings as of the last date of such service.  The resulting adjustments
shall be indicated in Appendix A hereto.  Any monthly accrued benefits payable
under the Mound Plans shall be payable to the Participant pursuant and subject
to the terms and conditions of the Mound Plans in effect as of September 30,
1997, including (but not limited to) the timing, form of benefit and “rule of
80” provisions of the Mound Plans.

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Plan to the contrary, no further benefits shall accrue under the Plan for any
period occurring after December 31, 2004 for any Participant who is employed at
the National Radar Testing Facility and whose terms of employment are governed
by a collective bargaining agreement between the International Association of
Machinists Union and the Employer, except as otherwise may be required by
Section 416 of the Code and other applicable laws and regulations.  For Plan
Years beginning on or after January 1, 2005, the benefits of any Participant
described in the preceding sentence shall be calculated as set forth in
Section 4.1(b)(i) of the Plan; provided, however, that the affected
Participant’s Credited Service,

 

22

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

 

Earnings and Social Security Wage Base under Section 4.1(b)(i)(B) shall be
calculated as of December 31, 2004.

(a)                                 A Participant who has not reached his Normal
Retirement Date but who has reached (i) an age that is within 10 years of his
Normal Retirement Age or (ii) his 55th birthday in the case of a Participant who
was a participant in the Prior Plan as of December 31, 1988, and completed 10
Years of Vesting Service shall be retired from service on an early Retirement
Income on the first day of the calendar month after the Plan Administrator
receives his written application to retire.

 

(b)                                 The early Retirement Income shall be a
deferred Retirement Income beginning on the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date
and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.1, shall be equal to his Accrued
Benefit.  However, subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(a) the Participant
may elect to receive an early Retirement Income beginning on the first day of
any calendar month before his Normal Retirement Date.  In that case, the
Participant’s Retirement Income that otherwise would have commenced on his
Normal Retirement Date shall be as follows:

 

(i)                                     With respect to that portion of the
Participant Retirement Income accrued on or prior to December 31, 2003 as set
forth in Section 4.1(b)(i)(A) of the Plan, the Participant’s Retirement Income
that otherwise would have commenced on his Normal Retirement Date shall be
reduced for early commencement by 1/15th for each of the first five full years,
1/30th for each of the next five years and 5% for each of the next two years by
which the Annuity Starting Date precedes the Participant’s Normal Retirement
Date, except that in the case of a Participant who has completed at least 30
Years of Vesting Service, the reduction applicable to the portion of the benefit
determined under Section 4.1(b)(i)(A)(1) of the Plan or the amount of the
benefit determined under Section 4.1(b)(ii) of the Plan shall be none

 

23

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

 

for the first three full years, 8.4% for each of the next two years and 4.2% for
each of the next seven years by which the Annuity Starting Date precedes the
Participant’s Normal Retirement Date.  Any reduction described in the preceding
sentence shall be applied proportionately to each monthly interval.

 

(ii)                                  With respect to that portion of the
Participant’s Retirement Income accrued on or after January 1, 2004 as set forth
in Section 4.1(b)(i)(B) of the Plan, the Participant’s Retirement Income that
otherwise would have commenced on his Normal Retirement Date shall be reduced
for early commencement by 1/15th for each of the first five full years,
1/30th for each of the next five years and 5% for each of the next two years by
which the Annuity Starting Date precedes the Participant’s Normal Retirement
Date.  Any reduction described in the preceding sentence shall be applied
proportionately to each monthly interval.

 

4.3                               In-Service Withdrawal after Attainment of Age
62

 

(a)                                 Not withstanding any provision in
Section 3.3(b) to the contrary, a Participant may elect at any time after
attainment of age 62 to begin receiving his or her vested Retirement Income
while still in the employ of the Company.  The Participant shall begin receiving
benefits on the first day of the calendar month after the Plan Administrator
receives his written application to receive benefits.  In-Service Withdrawals
provided under this Section 4.3 shall be subject to the following restrictions:

 

(i)                                     The Participant must have a reduced work
schedule, which provides for the completion of less than 40 Hours of Service
with the Employer in any month.

 

(ii)                                  If the Participant actually completes more
than 40 Hours of Service in any month, that month shall be treated as a month of
suspension service under

 

24

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

 

Section 3.3, and the Participant’s Retirement Income shall be suspended for that
month.

 

(b)                                 The Participant shall continue to earn
Credited Service as provided above in Section 3.2(b) for a Participant who does
not normally work the regular full-time work week for his Employer.

 

(c)                                  The Participant shall continue to accrue
benefits at the rate provided above in Section 4.1(b) until the Participant’s
retirement, subject to the exclusions set forth in Sections 4.1(c) and (d).

 

(d)                                 The Participant’s Retirement Income that
otherwise would have commenced on his Normal Retirement Date shall be calculated
in the same manner as the early Retirement Income calculated pursuant to
Sections 4.2(b)(i) and (ii), above.

 

4.4                               Vesting

 

(a)                                 A Participant shall have a 100 percent
vested nonforfeitable right to his Accrued Benefit upon the earlier to occur of
the completion of five Years of Vesting Service or the attainment of age
forty-five while in the employ of the Company.  If the Participant’s employment
with the Employer is subsequently terminated for reasons other than retirement
or death, he shall be eligible for a vested Retirement Income after the Plan
Administrator receives his written application for the Retirement Income.

 

If an Employee dies while on an approved leave of absence on account of military
service that is otherwise protected by applicable Federal Veterans Reemployment
Rights laws then, for the purposes of this Section 4.4(a), that Employee shall
be treated as if he or she had returned to Service and then died, but only if
the individual’s death occurs after December 31, 2006 and within the period the
individual’s reemployment rights are protected by such laws.

 

(b)                                 The vested Retirement Income shall begin on
the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date and, subject to the provisions of
Section 5.1, shall be equal to

 

25

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

 

his Accrued Benefit as of his date of Separation from Service.  However, a
Participant who has completed 10 Years of Vesting Service may elect to have his
vested Retirement Income begin on the first day of any calendar month after his
attainment of the age described in Section 4.2(a) and before his Normal
Retirement Date.  In that event, the Participant’s Retirement Income that
otherwise would have commenced on his Normal Retirement Date shall be reduced
for early commencement in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2(b).

 

4.5                               Disability Retirement

 

(a)                                 A Participant who has not reached his Normal
Retirement Date but who has completed at least 10 Years of Vesting Service and
incurred a Disability shall be eligible to receive a Disability Retirement
Income commencing on his Normal Retirement Date or on the first day of any month
on or after his eligibility for early retirement pursuant to Section 4.2(a).

 

(b)                                 The Disability Retirement Income of a
Participant commencing on his Normal Retirement Date shall be his normal
Retirement Income determined in accordance with Section 4.1, except that (i) the
Participant’s Average Earnings shall be determined by assuming that his Earnings
continued during the period of his Disability at the same rate as in effect on
the date of his Separation from Service, (ii) Credited Service shall continue to
be granted during the period of his Disability in accordance with the
Participant’s normal work schedule and (iii) the Participant’s long-term
disability payments under an Employer-sponsored plan will be reduced by the
amount of his normal Retirement Income payable under this Plan.

 

(c)                                  The Disability Retirement Income of a
Participant commencing on or after his eligibility for early retirement shall be
his early Retirement Income determined in accordance with Section 4.2(b), except
that (i) the Participant’s Average Earnings shall be determined by assuming that
his Earnings continued during the period of his Disability at the same rate as
in effect on the date of his

 

26

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

 

Separation from Service, (ii) Credited Service shall continue to be granted
during the period of his Disability in accordance with the Participant’s normal
work schedule and (iii) the Participant’s long-term disability payments under an
Employer-sponsored plan will be reduced by the amount of his early Retirement
Income payable under this Plan.

 

4.6                               Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Retirement
Income

 

(a)                                 A Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s
Retirement Income is payable to the surviving Spouse of a Participant who at the
time of his death had a nonforfeitable vested right to his Accrued Benefit. 
Such surviving Spouse shall receive a Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s
Retirement Income, which is of Equivalent Actuarial Value to the form of benefit
described in Section 5.1(a) that would begin on the Participant’s Normal
Retirement Date, calculated in accordance with (i) or (ii) as follows, whichever
is applicable:

 

(i)                                     If the Participant’s date of death
occurred prior to the earliest date on which he could have elected to receive
Retirement Income pursuant to Section 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5 (“earliest retirement
age”), such Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Retirement Income shall be
calculated as if the Participant had terminated employment on his date of death
or on his date of termination of employment, if earlier, had survived to his
earliest retirement age, had elected to retire at that time and have payments
commence immediately in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity of
Equivalent Actuarial Value to the Retirement Income that otherwise would be
payable pursuant to Section 5.1(a) and had died on the day after his earliest
retirement age.  Benefits may commence as early as the date on which the
Participant would have attained his earliest retirement age, subject to the
provisions of Section 5.3.  Benefits commencing after the date on which the
Participant would have attained his earliest retirement age shall be of
Equivalent Actuarial Value to the

 

27

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

 

benefit the surviving Spouse would have been entitled to if payments had
commenced immediately in accordance with this paragraph (a)(i).

 

(ii)                                  If the Participant’s date of death
occurred on or after his earliest retirement age, such Qualified Pre-Retirement
Spouse’s Retirement Income shall be calculated as if the Participant had retired
on the day before his death or on his date of termination of employment, if
earlier, with payments commencing immediately in the form of a Qualified Joint
and Survivor Annuity of Equivalent Actuarial Value to the Retirement Income that
otherwise would be payable pursuant to Section 5.1(a) and had died on the day
after his retirement.  The surviving Spouse may elect to commence payment under
such annuity within a reasonable period after the Participant’s death.  Benefits
that commence later than those that would have been paid to the surviving Spouse
under a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be actuarially adjusted to
reflect the delayed payment.

 

(b)                                 The Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s
Retirement Income shall be paid in monthly installments to, and during the life
of, the Participant’s surviving Spouse.  The earliest period for which the
surviving Spouse may receive a Spouse’s benefit shall be the month in which the
Participant would have attained his earliest retirement age.

 

(c)                                  The Participant’s surviving Spouse may
elect to receive the Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Retirement Income in the
form of Option 5 of Section 5.2.  The Plan Administrator will provide a
notification to the surviving Spouse that shall include a general description of
the material features, and an explanation of the relative values of, the
optional forms of benefit available under the Plan in a manner that would
satisfy the notice requirements of IRC 417(a)(3) and Treas. Reg. 1.417(a)(3)-1.

 

28

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

 

4.7                               Maximum Benefits

 

(a)                                 Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Plan to the contrary, the total annual amount of a Participant’s Retirement
Income derived from Employer contributions under this Plan and under all other
defined benefit plans of an Employer shall not exceed the Maximum Permissible
Benefit pursuant to Section 415(b)(1) of the Code.  Benefit increases resulting
from the increase in the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation shall be provided to
all Employees participating in the Plan who have one Hour of Service on or after
December 31, 2001.  For purposes of determining the Maximum Permissible Benefit,
the “Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation” is $160,000, as adjusted, effective
January 1 of each year, under Code Section 415(d) in such manner as the
Secretary shall prescribe, and payable in the form of a straight life annuity. 
This limitation as adjusted will apply to limitation years ending with or within
the calendar year for which the adjustment applies.  For purposes of determining
the Maximum Permissible Benefit, the “Defined Benefit Compensation Limitation”
is 100% of the Participant’s average compensation for the three consecutive
years of service, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation
Section 1.415(b)-1(a)(5), in which he received the highest aggregate
compensation from the Employer, adjusted as provided below.  For purposes of
applying the limitations of Code Section 415, compensation shall be determined
in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Sections
1.415(c)-2(b)and (c), including compensation described in Treasury Regulation
Sections 1.415(c)-2(e)(3)(i), (ii) and (iii) and (e)(4) (to the extent any such
compensation is paid by the Employer).  For purposes of this Section 4.7, and
applying the limitations of Code Section 415, compensation shall include any
amount which is contributed or deferred by the Employer on behalf of and at the
election of a Participant and which is not includible in gross income by reason
of Code Section 125, 402(e)(3) or 457 or, effective January 1, 2001, Code
Section 132(f)(4).

 

29

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

 

(b)                                 The “Maximum Permissible Benefit” is the
lesser of the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation or the Defined Benefit
Compensation Limitation (both adjusted where required, as provided in (i) below
and if applicable (ii) or (iii) below).

 

(i)                                     If the Participant has fewer than 10
years of participation in the Plan, the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation shall
be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of years (or
part thereof) of participation in the Plan and the denominator of which is 10. 
In the case of a Participant who has fewer than 10 Years of Service with the
Employer, the Defined Benefit Compensation Limitation shall be multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Years (or part thereof) of
Service with the Employer and the denominator of which is 10.

 

(ii)                                  Adjustment of Limitation for Commencement
prior to Attaining Age 62.  The Dollar Limitation applicable to the Participant
at such earlier age is an annual benefit payable in the form of a straight life
annuity beginning at the earlier age that is the Actuarial Equivalent of the
Dollar Limitation applicable to the Participant at age 62 (as adjusted under
(i) above, if required).

 

(A)                               For Benefits Commencing in Limitation Years
Beginning before July 1, 2007.  The Dollar Limitation applicable at an age prior
to age 62 is determined as the lesser of:

 

(I)                                   the Actuarial Equivalent (at such age) of
the Dollar Limitation computed using the interest rate and mortality table (or
other tabular factor) specified in Section 1.24(b) of the Plan; and

 

(II)                              the Actuarial Equivalent (at such age) of the
Dollar Limitation computed using a 5% interest rate and the

 

30

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

 

Applicable Mortality Table as defined in Section 1.24 (c)(ii)(C) of the Plan.

 

Any decrease in the Dollar Limitation determined in accordance with this
paragraph (ii) shall not reflect a mortality decrement to the extent that
benefits are not forfeited upon the death of the Participant.

 

(B)                               For Benefits Commencing in Limitation Years
Beginning on or after July 1, 2007.

 

(I)                                   If the Plan does not have an immediate
commencing straight life annuity payable both at age 62 and the age of benefit
commencement, the Dollar Limitation applicable at an age prior to age 62 is
determined using 5% interest rate and the Applicable Mortality Table as defined
in Section 1.24(c)(ii)(C) of the Plan (and expressing the participant’s age
based on completed calendar months as of the Annuity Starting Date).

 

(II)                              If the plan has an immediate commencing
straight life annuity payable both at age 62 and the age of benefit
commencement, the Dollar Limitation applicable at an age prior to age 62 is
determined as the lesser of:

 

a)                                     the Dollar Limitation calculated under
subparagraph (B)(I), above; and

 

b)                                     the Dollar Limitation set forth in
paragraph (a), above, multiplied by the ratio of 1) to 2), where:

 

1)                                     is equal to annual amount of the
immediately commencing straight life

 

31

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

 

annuity under the Plan at the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date ; and

 

2)                                     is equal to the annual amount of the
immediately commencing straight life annuity under the Plan at age 62.

 

The annual amounts under both subsections 1) and 2) above are determined without
applying the limitations under Code Section 415.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all adjustments of the Dollar Limitation for
benefits commencing in Limitation Years beginning on or after July 1, 2007 shall
be made in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.415(b)-1, and all
adjustments of the Dollar Limitation for benefits commencing in Limitation Years
beginning before July 1, 2007 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of
Code Section 415 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder as in effect at the
time distribution of benefits commenced.

 

(iii)                               Adjustment of Limitation for Commencement
after Age 65.  The Dollar Limitation applicable to the Participant is the annual
benefit payable in the form of a straight life annuity beginning at the later
age that is Actuarially Equivalent to the Dollar Limitation applicable to the
Participant at age 65 (as adjusted under (i) above, if required).

 

(A)                               For Benefits Commencing in Limitation Years
Beginning before July 1, 2007.  The Actuarial  Equivalent of the Dollar
Limitation applicable at an age after age 65 is determined as the lesser of:

 

(I)                                   the Actuarial Equivalent (at such age) of
the Dollar Limitation computed using the interest rate and mortality table (or
other tabular factor) specified in Section 1.24(b) of the Plan; and

 

32

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

 

(II)                              the Actuarial Equivalent (at such age) of the
Dollar Limitation computed using a 5% interest rate assumption and the
Applicable Mortality Table as defined in Section 1.24 (c)(ii)(C) of the Plan.

 

For these purposes, mortality between age 65 and the age at which benefits
commence shall be ignored , to the extent that benefits are not forfeited upon
death of the Participant.

 

(B)                               For Benefits Commencing in Limitation Years
Beginning on or after July 1, 2007.

 

(I)                                   If the Plan does not have an immediate
commencing straight life annuity payable both at age 65 and the age of benefit
commencement, the increase in the Dollar Limitation applicable at the
Participant’s Annuity Starting Date  is determined using 5% interest rate and
the Applicable Mortality Table as defined in Section 1.24(c)(ii)(C) of the Plan
(and expressing the participant’s age based on completed calendar months as of
the Annuity Starting Date ).

 

(II)                              If the Plan has an immediate commencing
straight life annuity payable both at age 65 and the age of benefit
commencement, the Dollar Limitation applicable at an age subsequent to age 65 is
determined as the lesser of:

 

a)                                     the Dollar Limitation calculated under
subparagraph (B)(I), above; and

 

b)                                     the Dollar Limitation set forth in
paragraph (a), above, multiplied by the ratio of 1) to 2), where:

 

33

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

 

1)                                     is equal to the annual amount of the
immediately commencing straight life annuity under the Plan at the Participant’s
Annuity Starting Date (computed disregarding the Participant’s accruals after
age 65 but including actuarial adjustments even if those actuarial adjustments
are applied to offset accruals); and

 

2)                                     is equal to the annual amount of the
immediately commencing straight life annuity under the Plan at age 65 (the
annual amount of such annuity that would be payable under the plan to a
hypothetical participant who is age 65 and has the same accrued benefit as the
participant.).

 

The annual amounts under both subsections 1) and 2) above are determined without
applying the limitations under Code Section 415.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all adjustments of the Dollar Limitation for
benefits commencing in Limitation Years beginning on or after July 1, 2007 shall
be made in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.415(b)-1, and all
adjustments of the Dollar Limitation for benefits commencing in Limitation Years
beginning before July 1, 2007 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of
Code Section 415 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder as in effect at the
time distribution of benefits commenced.

 

(c)                                  For distributions that commenced prior to
January 1, 2002, for purposes of determining whether the limitation contained in
the first sentence of paragraph (a) has been satisfied, in the case of any
benefit that may commence prior to a

 

34

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

 

Participant’s Social Security Retirement Age but on or after the Participant’s
attainment of age 62, the dollar limitation of Code Section 415(b)(1)(A) shall
be reduced by 5/9 of 1% for each of the first 36 months and 5/12 of 1% for each
of the next 24 months (if applicable) by which benefits commence before the
month in which the Participant attains Social Security Retirement Age. 
Effective January 1, 2002, this paragraph (c) shall no longer apply and shall
have no effect under the terms of the Plan.

 

(d)                                 For purposes of determining whether the
limitation contained in the first sentence of paragraph (a) has been satisfied
for any benefit that may commence in a form other than a straight life annuity,
the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation shall be adjusted (in accordance with the
regulations prescribed by the Secretary) so that it is of Equivalent Actuarial
Value to the limitation for a benefit payable as a straight life annuity as
follows:

 

(i)                                     Benefit Forms Not Subject to Code
Section 417(e)(3).

 

(A)                               For Limitation Years beginning before July 1,
2007, the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation shall be adjusted using whichever of
the following produces the greater applicable limitation:  (I) the interest rate
and mortality table specified in Section 1.24(b) or (II) the interest rate and
mortality table specified of Section 1.24(c)(ii) (with respect to a benefit
payable in a form other than a straight life annuity) after adjustment, if
necessary, for a benefit commencing prior to age 62 or after age 65.

 

(B)                               For Limitation Years beginning on or after
July 1, 2007, the adjusted Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation is the greater of: 
(I) the annual amount of the straight life annuity (if any) payable to the
Participant under the Plan commencing at the same annuity starting date as the
form of benefit payable to the Participant or (II) the annual amount of the
straight life annuity commencing at the same Annuity Starting Date that has the
same actuarial present

 

35

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

 

value as the form of benefit payable to the Participant, computed using a 5
percent interest assumption and the mortality table described in
Section 1.24(c)(ii) for that Annuity Starting Date.

 

(ii)                                  Benefit Forms Subject to Code
Section 417(e)(3).  The Defined Benefit Dollar limitation shall be adjusted
using the following assumptions:

 

(A)                               For distributions with Annuity Starting Dates
prior to January 1, 2004, the mortality table described in Section 1.24(b) and
interest at 5% per annum.

 

(B)                               For distributions with Annuity Starting Dates
on or after January 1, 2004, but before January 1, 2006, whichever of the
following produces the greater limitation: (I) the mortality table and interest
rate described in Section 1.24(b), above, or (II) the mortality table described
in Section 1.24(c)(ii), above, and interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum.  If
the Annuity Starting Date is on or after the first day of the Plan Year
beginning in 2004 and before December 31, 2004, and the Plan applies the
transition rule in section 101(d)(3) of Pension Funding Equity Act of 2004 in
lieu of the rule set forth in the first sentence of this Subsection (B), the
annual amount of the straight life annuity commencing at the same Annuity
Starting Date that has the same actuarial present value as the Participant’s
form of benefit, determined in accordance with Notice 2004-78.

 

(C)                               For distributions with Annuity Starting Dates
on or after January 1, 2006, whichever of the following produces the lower
limitation:

 

(I)                                   the mortality table described in
Section 1.24(c)(ii) and interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum;

 

(II)                              the mortality table described in
Section 1.24(c)(ii) and interest at the rate that provides a benefit of not more
than

 

36

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

 

105% of the benefit that would be provided if the applicable interest rate (as
described in section 417(e)(3)) were the interest rate assumption; or

 

(III)                         the mortality table and interest rate set forth in
Section 1.24(b), above.

 

(e)                                  For purposes of this Section and
Section 4.7, references to annual amounts of benefits or contributions shall be
for a Limitation Year.

 

4.8                               Limitation in Case of Dual Plans

 

If a Participant is also participating in one or more defined contribution plans
of an Employer, the annual additions (as defined in Code Section 415(c)(2)) to
such defined contribution plans shall be limited (or reduced, if applicable) so
that a “combined benefit factor” in excess of 1.0 shall not result, pursuant to
Code Section 415(e).  The provisions of this Section 4.7 will cease to apply on
and after any Limitation Year beginning after December 31, 1999.

 

4.9                               Transfers and Employment

 

(a)                                 If an Employee becomes employed by the
Employer in any capacity other than as an Eligible Employee, he shall retain any
Credited Service he has under this Plan and future Service with the Employer
shall count as Years of Vesting Service under the Plan.  Upon his later
retirement or termination of employment with the Employer, any benefits to which
he is entitled under the Plan shall be determined under the Plan provisions in
effect on the date he ceases to be an Eligible Employee and only on.  the basis
of his Credited Service accrued while he was an Eligible Employee.

 

(b)                                 Subject to the Break in Service provisions
of Article III, if a person who is originally employed by the Employer in any
capacity other than as an Eligible Employee becomes an Eligible Employee, his
period of Service with the Employer before becoming an Eligible Employee shall
count as Vesting

 

37

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

 

Service under the Plan.  Upon his later retirement or termination of employment,
the benefits payable under the Plan shall be computed under the Plan provisions
in effect at that time and only on the basis of the Credited Service accrued
while he is an Eligible Employee.

 

4.10                        Funding-Based Limits.

 

To the extent required by Code section 436, the following funding-based limits
on benefits and benefit accruals are effective January 1, 2008:

 

(a)                                 Funding-Based Limitation on Unpredictable
Contingent Event Benefits.  An Unpredictable Contingent Event Benefit payable
with respect to an event occurring in a Plan Year may not be provided if the
Adjusted Funding Target Attainment Percentage for such Plan Year is less than
60% or would be less than 60% taking into account such occurrence.  The
limitation of this Subsection 4.10(a) shall not apply if a contribution is made
in accordance with Code section 436(b)(2).

 

(b)                                 Limitation on Plan Amendments Increasing
Liability for Benefits.  An amendment that has the effect of increasing
liabilities of the Plan by reason of increases in benefits, establishment of new
benefits, changing the rate of benefit accrual or changing the rate at which
benefits become nonforfeitable may not take effect for a Plan Year if the
Adjusted Funding Target Attainment Percentage for such Plan Year is less than
80% or would be less than 80% taking into account such amendment.  The
limitation of this Subsection 4.10(b) shall not apply if a contribution is made
in accordance with Code section 436(c)(2) or, to the extent provided in Code
section 436(c)(3), the increase is not based on a Participant’s compensation.

 

(c)                                  Limitation on Accelerated Benefit

(i)                                     If the Adjusted Funding Target
Attainment Percentage for a Plan Year is less than 60%, the Plan may not pay any
Prohibited Payment after the valuation date for such Plan Year.

 

38

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

 

(ii)                                  During any period in which the Company is
a debtor under Title 11, United Stated Code, or similar Federal or State law,

certified to be not less than 100%.

 

(iii)                               If the Adjusted Funding Target Attainment
Percentage for a Plan Year is 60% or greater but less than 80%, the Plan may not
pay any Prohibited Payment after the valuation date for such Plan Year in an
amount that exceeds the lesser of (A) 50% of the amount of the payment which
could be made without regard to this Subsection 4.10(c)(iii) or (B) the present
value (determined under guidance prescribed by the PBGC using the Code section
417(e) interest and mortality rates) of the maximum guarantee with respect to
the Participant under ERISA section 4022.  Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, only one (1) Prohibited Payment under this Subsection 4.10(c)(iii) may
be made with respect to any Participant during any period of consecutive Plan
Years in which the limitations of Subsection 4.10(c)(i) or 4.9(c)(ii) apply. 
For these purposes, a Participant and Beneficiary, including an Alternate Payee,
shall be treated as one (1) Participant.

 

(iv)                              This Subsection 4.10(c) shall not apply to
involuntary cash-outs under Code section 411(a)(11) to the extent such

Subsection 4.10(d) shall not apply with respect to any Plan Year, effective as
of the first of the Plan Year, if a contribution is made in accordance with Code
section 436(e)(2).  For the 2009 Plan Year, the Adjusted Funding Target
Attainment Percentage for the 2008

 

39

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

 

Plan Year may be used in determining whether the restriction of this Subsection
4.10(d) applies.

 

(e)                                  Treatment of Plan as of Close of
Restriction Period.  Payments and accruals will resume effective as of the close
of the period for which any limitation of payment or benefit accrual described
in this Section 4.10 applies.

 

(f)                                   Definitions.  The following definitions
apply for purposes of this Section 4.10.

 

(i)                                     Adjusted Funding Target Attainment
Percentage.  The term “Adjusted Funding Target Attainment Percentage” has the
meaning given by Code section 436(j)(2).

ARTICLE V
PAYMENT OF RETIREMENT INCOME

 

5.1                               Automatic Form of Payment

 

(a)                                 If a Participant does not have a Spouse on
his Annuity Starting Date, and if he has not elected an optional benefit as
provided in Section 5.2, his Retirement Income shall be payable in monthly
installments ending with the last monthly payment before death.

 

(b)                                 If a Participant has a Spouse on his Annuity
Starting Date, and if he has not.  elected an optional form of payment as
provided in Section 5.2, his Retirement Income shall be a Qualified Joint and
Survivor Annuity.  The Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity provides Retirement
Income to the Participant for his life in an amount that is of Equivalent
Actuarial Value to the Retirement Income otherwise payable pursuant to
Section 5.1(a).  Upon the Participant’s death on or after his Annuity Starting
Date, 50 per cent of the initial amount of monthly Retirement Income payable to
the Participant will be paid to, and during the life of, the surviving Spouse.

 

(c)                                  A single sum payment of Equivalent
Actuarial Value shall be made in lieu of all benefits if the present value of a
Participant’s Retirement Income at the time of any Separation from Service does
not exceed $1,000.  The single sum payment will be made as soon as practicable
following the Participant’s Separation from Service.  If a Participant’s vested
Retirement Income is zero, a single sum payment of Equivalent Actuarial Value
shall be deemed to have been paid and the entire Accrued Benefit shall be
treated as a forfeiture and applied as provided in Section 6.1.  If such
Participant again becomes a Participant before incurring five consecutive
one-year Breaks in Service, his Accrued Benefit will be restored to the amount
of such Accrued Benefit on the date of the deemed distribution.

 

41

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

 

5.2                               Optional Forms of Payment

 

Any Participant may, by written notice received by the Plan Administrator during
the election period specified in Section 5.3, elect to convert the Retirement
Income otherwise payable to him into an optional benefit of Equivalent Actuarial
Value, as provided in one of the options named below.  However, if the
Beneficiary selected is not the Participant’s Spouse or if the option selected
is not a joint and survivor form of benefit, the amount of the monthly benefit
payable to the Beneficiary pursuant to the option shall not exceed the
applicable percentage of the Retirement Income payable to the Participant during
his lifetime determined under Treasury Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-6 Q&A-2.

 

Option 1.                                       Retirement Income payable
pursuant to Section 5.1(a), even if the Participant has a Spouse.

 

Option 2.                                       A modified Retirement Income
payable during the Participant’s life and after his death payable at the rate of
50, 75 or 100 per cent of his modified Retirement Income, as the Participant
elects, during the life of and to the Beneficiary named by him when he elected
the option.

 

Option 3.                                       A modified Retirement Income
payable in monthly installments ending with the last monthly payment before
death, unless the Participant has not received 120 monthly payments (the “period
certain”), in which case payments shall continue to be made to his Beneficiary
until all guaranteed payments have been made.  If the Beneficiary also dies
before the expiration of the period certain, a single sum payment of Equivalent
Actuarial Value to the remaining guaranteed payments shall be paid to the estate
of the last to survive of the Participant and his Beneficiary.  In no event,
however, shall payments under this Option 3 extend beyond the joint and last
survivor expectancy of the Participant and his Beneficiary.

 

Option 4.                                       Retirement Income payable in
monthly installments during the Participant’s life, beginning only on an Annuity
Starting Date that is prior to the first day on which the Participant would
otherwise be entitled (upon proper

 

42

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

 

application) to receive his old age Social Security benefit, whether or not on a
reduced basis because of early commencement of such old age benefit.  Retirement
Income payments on or after such first day shall be adjusted to provide, insofar
as practicable, that the total of such Retirement Income and the estimated
primary old age Social Security benefit payable on such first day shall equal
the monthly amount of Retirement Income payments prior to such first day.

 

Option 5.                                       A single sum payment of
Equivalent Actuarial Value provided the present value of the Participant’s
Retirement Income exceeds $1,000 but does not exceed $5,000.  A Participant may
elect to receive such single sum payment without regard to the spousal consent
requirements in Section 5.3(c).

 

5.3                               Election of Options

 

(a)                                 The Plan Administrator, no less than 30 days
and no more than 90 days prior to the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date, shall
furnish each Participant a written explanation in nontechnical language of
(i) the terms and conditions of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity
provided by Section 5.1(b), (ii) the financial effect upon the Participant’s
Retirement Income if he instead elects payment under one of the optional forms
described in Section 5.2, (iii) in the case of a married Participant the rights
of the Participant’s Spouse to consent or not to consent to the Participant’s
election of an optional form of payment and (iv) the right of the Participant to
make, and to revoke, an election under Section 5.2.  An election under
Section 5.2 may be made at any time after that information is furnished to the
Participant and before the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date; provided that
the period during which the election may be made shall be the 90-day period
ending on the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date.

 

The Plan Administrator will provide a notification to the Participant that shall
include a general description of the material features, and an explanation of
the relative values of, the optional forms of benefit available under the Plan
in a

 

43

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

 

manner that would satisfy the notice requirements of IRC 417(a)(3) and Treas.
Reg. 1.417(a)(3)-1.

 

An election of an option under Section 5.2 may be revoked on a form supplied by
the Plan Administrator, and a new election may be made at any time and any
number of times during the applicable election period.

 

(b)                                 An election of an option under Section 5.2
shall be made by written notice received by the Plan Administrator prior to the
Participant’s Annuity Starting Date.  The election shall become effective on the
Participant’s Annuity Starting Date.  The Participant may revoke his option by
written notice to the Plan Administrator prior to that date.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a Participant’s Annuity Starting Date may be before the date the
election is made, provided that the Participant may revoke his option within the
7-day period beginning on the day after the Participant receives the explanation
described in paragraph (a) above and that distribution.  under the option does
not begin until the expiration of that 7-day period.  A Participant’s Annuity
Starting Date may also be less than 30 days after receipt of the written
explanation described in paragraph (a) above, provided that the Participant may
revoke his option and distributions may not begin until the later of the Annuity
Starting Date or the expiration of the 7-day period referred to in the preceding
sentence.

 

An election of Option 2 shall be deemed to be revoked in the event the
Beneficiary named under the option shall die prior to the Participant’s Annuity
Starting Date and the Participant may thereafter make another election, subject
to the conditions required therefor.  If a Participant who has elected an option
shall die prior to the effective date of his election, the option shall not
become operative and the provisions of Section 4.6 shall apply.  A Participant
may change the Beneficiary named in his election at any time prior to the later
of the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date or the date distribution under the
option actually commences, or, in the case of Option 3, at any time prior to the
expiration of the period certain.

 

44

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

 

(c)                                  If the Participant has an eligible Spouse
and if the Participant desires to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity
form of Retirement Income, his eligible Spouse must consent to such waiver
(within the 90-day election period) in a written instrument received by the Plan
Administrator.  The eligible Spouse’s consent must acknowledge the financial
effect of the waiver.  The waiver must either (i) designate the Beneficiary (if
any) and form of Retirement Income payment or (ii) expressly permit the
Participant to designate any Beneficiary and the form of payment without further
consent by the eligible Spouse, and must (iii) further acknowledge that the
eligible Spouse has the right to limit the consent to a specific Beneficiary and
form of payment and state that any relinquishment of such right is voluntary by
the eligible Spouse.  The eligible Spouse’s written consent and acknowledgment
must be witnessed by a Plan representative or a notary public.  The Participant
may revoke the election at any time and any number of times before his
Retirement Income payments begin.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, spousal consent to a Participant’s designation
shall not be required if:

 

(i)                                     the eligible Spouse is designated as the
primary beneficiary or contingent annuitant by the Participant and the method of
payment chosen for the eligible Spouse by the Participant conforms with the
definition of a qualified joint and survivor annuity under the Code, or

 

(ii)                                  it is established to the satisfaction of
the Plan Administrator that spousal consent cannot be obtained because there is
no eligible Spouse, because the eligible Spouse cannot be located or because of
such other circumstances as may be prescribed in regulations issued by the
Secretary of the Treasury.

 

45

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

 

5.4                               Required Commencement Dates

 

(a)                                 Unless a Participant otherwise elects, the
payment of benefits under the Plan to the Participant will begin not later than
the 60th day after the close of the Plan Year in which the later of the

following the calendar year in which he attains age 70½.  In the case of a
Participant other than a Five Percent Owner who has a Separation from Service in
a calendar year after the calendar year in which he attains age 70-1/2, his
Accrued Benefit shall be actuarially increased to take into account the period
after age 70-1/2 in which the Participant was not receiving any benefits under
the Plan, to the extent required under Code Section 401(a)(9)(C)(iii).

 

Distributions to a Participant must be made over the life of the Participant (or
the lives of the Participant and his Spouse or Beneficiary) or over a period not
exceeding the life expectancy of the Participant (or the life expectancies of
the Participant and his Spouse or Beneficiary).

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all distributions required under this Article V
shall be determined and made in accordance with the Treasury Regulations §§
1.401(a)(9)-2 through 1.401(a)(9)-9, and the incidental benefit requirements of
Code Section 401(a)(9)(G).

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

 

5.5                               Direct Rollovers

 

(a)                                 In General

 

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise
limit a Distributee’s election under this Section 5.5, a Distributee may elect,
at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any
portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible
Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee in a Direct Rollover.

 

(b)                                 Eligible Rollover Distribution

 

An Eligible Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of
the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover
Distribution does not include:  any distribution that is one of a series of
substantially equal periodic payments (no less frequently than annually) made
for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or
joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee’s designated
beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; any distribution to
the extent such distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code;
and the portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income.

 

(c)                                  Eligible Retirement Plan

 

An Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account described in
Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity described in
Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the
Code, an annuity contract described in Section 403(b) of the Code, a qualified
trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, or an eligible plan under
Section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by a state, political subdivision
of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision
of a state which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such
plan from the Plan, that accepts the Distributee’s Eligible Rollover
Distribution.  With respect to a Distributee who is a non-spouse Beneficiary,
only an individual retirement plan as

 

47

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

 

provided for under section 402(c)(11) of the Code will qualify as an Eligible
Retirement Plan.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the
contrary, and subject to the provisions of Section 408A(e) of the Code,
distributions from this Plan may paid directly to a Roth IRA specified by a
Distributee.

 

(d)                                 “Distributee”

 

A Distributee includes:

 

(i)                                     an Eligible Employee or former Eligible
Employee;

 

(ii)                                  an Eligible Employee or former Eligible
Employee’s surviving spouse;

 

(iii)                               an Eligible Employee or former Eligible
Employee’s spouse or former spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified
domestic relations order (as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code) with regard
to the interest of that spouse or former spouse; and

 

(iv)                              subject to the limitations set forth in
subsection (c) above, an Eligible Employee or former Eligible Employee’s
non-spouse Beneficiary.

 

(e)                                  Direct Rollover

 

A Direct Rollover is a payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan
specified by the Distributee.

 

5.6                               Retroactive Annuity Starting Date.

 

(a)                                 Retroactive Annuity Starting Date.  In the
event a general notice of distribution regarding a Participant’s optional forms
of payment is required and provided after the Participant’s annuity starting
date as defined in Q&A-l0(b) of Section 1.401(a)-20 of the Treasury Regulations
solely due to an administrative delay in providing such notice, the
Participant’s Annuity Starting Date shall be deemed a “retroactive annuity
starting date.”  In such event, the following shall apply:

 

48

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

 

(i)                                     The date the first payment is actually
made to the Participant (the ‘current annuity starting date’) shall occur no
later than 90 days after the date the general notice of distribution is provided
to the Participant (unless any delay beyond the 90 days is attributable to
administrative delay in the payment of benefits).

 

(ii)                                  The general notice of distribution shall
include the Participant’s right to elect either a retroactive annuity starting
date or a current annuity starting date.

 

(iii)                               The information included in the general
notice of distribution shall include information based on both the Participant’s
retroactive annuity starting date and current annuity starting date.

 

(iv)                              The Participant shall have the opportunity to
elect in writing either:

 

(A)                               A benefit determined based on the retroactive
annuity starting date, or

 

(B)                               A benefit determined based on the current
annuity starting date.

 

(v)                                 In the event that:

 

(A)                               A Participant elects to receive his benefit
determined as of a retroactive annuity starting date, and

 

(B)                               Under the form of payment elected by such
Participant the benefit payable to the Participant’s Spouse upon the
Participant’s death would be less than the benefit payable to such Spouse if the
Participant had elected to receive a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity with
his Spouse as Beneficiary determined and payable as of the current annuity
starting date, then the Participant’s Spouse must consent in writing to the
Participant’s election of such retroactive annuity starting date.

 

49

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

 

(vi)                              Except in the case where payment of the
Participant’s benefit (other than a form of payment that is subject to Section
417(e) of the Code) commences no more than 12 months after the retroactive
annuity starting date, the Participant’s benefit determined based on the
retroactive annuity starting date (including any interest adjustments) shall
satisfy the requirements of Section 415 of the Code if the current annuity
starting date were to be substituted for the retroactive annuity starting date
for all purposes of determining the limits under Section 415 of the Code,
including for purposes of determining the applicable interest rate and the
applicable mortality table used to adjust such limits.

 

(vii)                           If the Participant’s benefit is payable in a
form of payment which would have been subject to Section 417(e) of the Code if
payment had commenced as of the retroactive annuity starting date, then the
amount of payment as of the current annuity starting date shall be no less than
the amount of payment produced by applying the applicable interest rate and the
applicable mortality table (as defined in Section 1.24 of the Plan), determined
as of such date to the annuity form that was used to determine the amount of
payment as of the Participant’s retroactive annuity starting date.

 

(viii)                        In the event that a Participant elects (with
Spousal consent, if applicable) to receive his benefit determined as of a
retroactive annuity starting date, the Participant shall receive a make-up
payment to reflect any missed payment or payments for the period from the
retroactive annuity starting date to the date of the actual make-up payment,
with an appropriate adjustment for interest from the date the missed payment or
payments would have been made (including, if applicable, a payment of the
single-sum value of the Participant’s retirement income) to the date of the
actual make-up payment.  If the Participant’s benefit is paid in a form other
than a single-sum payment, the benefit payments, other than any required make-up
payment, shall be in an amount that is equal to the amount which

 

50

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

 

would have been paid to the Participant had payments actually commenced on his
retroactive annuity starting date.

 

(ix)                              For purposes of the foregoing, references to a
Participant’s Spouse shall include an alternate payee who, under the terms of a
qualified domestic relations order, is required to be treated as a surviving
Spouse in the event of the Participant’s death.

 

(x)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a benefit
shall not be determined based on a retroactive annuity starting date to the
extent not permitted under applicable law (including regulations and other
administrative guidance under the Code).

 

51

6.1                               Employer’s Contributions

 

It is the intention of the Employer to continue the Plan and make the
contributions that are necessary to maintain the Plan on a sound actuarial basis
and to meet the minimum funding standards prescribed by law.  However, should
the Board of Directors terminate the Plan in accordance with the provisions of
Article X, the Employer shall discontinue its contributions.  Any forfeitures
shall be used to reduce the Employer’s contributions otherwise payable.

 

6.2                               Return of Contributions

 

(a)                                 If all or part of the Employer’s
contributions hereunder are conditioned upon their deductibility under Section
404 of the Code and the deduction for all or any part of such contributions to
the Plan is disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the portion of the
contributions to which that disallowance applies shall be returned to the
Employer without interest, but reduced by any investment loss attributable to
those contributions.  The return shall be made within one year after the date of
the disallowance of deduction.  All Employer contributions to the Plan are
conditioned upon their deductibility.

 

(b)                                 If an Employer contribution is made due to a
mistake in fact, the Employer may require the Trustee to return the
contribution, without interest but reduced by any investment loss allocable to
the contribution.  The return shall be made as soon as practicable within one
year after the date the contribution was made.

 

(c)                                  If an Employer contribution hereunder is
conditioned on initial qualification of the Plan under Section 401(a) of the
Code and if the Plan receives an adverse determination letter with respect to
its initial qualification, such contribution shall be returned to the Employer
within one year after the date the initial qualification is denied, but only if
the application for determination is made by the time prescribed by law for
filing the Employer’s return for the taxable year

10.2                        Exclusive Benefit Rule

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no part of the corpus or income of the
funds of the Plan shall be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the

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

 

ARTICLE XI
TOP-HEAVY PROVISIONS

 

11.1                        When Applicable

 

If this Plan is determined to be “Top-Heavy”, as defined in Section 11.5, for
any Plan Year, the provisions of this Article shall supersede any conflicting
provisions in the Plan.

 

11.2                        Minimum Accrual

 

For each Plan Year that this Plan is Top-Heavy, each Participant who is not a
Key Employee must accrue a nonintegrated benefit that, when expressed as an
annual benefit payable as a single life annuity commencing at Normal Retirement
Age, is not less than two percent of the Participant’s Average Earnings
multiplied by his years of Credited Service.  Average Earnings are averaged over
the five consecutive years (disregarding years during which the Plan is not
Top-Heavy) for which the Participant had the highest Earnings.  However, a
Participant’s minimum benefit is not required to exceed 20 percent of his
Average Earnings.  This minimum accrual shall be made even though, under other
Plan provisions, the Participant would not otherwise be entitled to receive an
accrual or would have received a lesser accrual for the year because of (i) the
Participant’s failure to be employed on a specified date such as the last day of
the Plan Year, (ii) the Participant’s failure to make mandatory contributions,
if any, to the Plan, or (iii) the Participant’s Earnings being less than a
stated amount.  To the extent that the Participant does not receive the minimum
accrual under this Plan but is covered under the URS Corporation 401(k)
Retirement Plan or the URS Corporation 401(k) Retirement Plan for Specified
Contract Employees, the requirements of this Section shall be satisfied if the
minimum benefit or minimum allocation requirements applicable to Top-Heavy plans
are met in the URS Corporation 401(k) Retirement Plan or the URS Corporation
401(k) Retirement Plan for Specified Contract Employees.  For purposes of
determining Credited Service with the Employer under this Section 11.2, any
service with the Employer shall be disregarded to the extent that such service
occurs during a Plan Year when the Plan benefits (within the meaning of Section
410(b) of the Code) no Key Employee or former Key Employee.

 

64

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

 

11.3                        Vesting Rules

 

For any Plan Year in which this Plan is Top-Heavy, the minimum vesting schedule
as described in Section 11.4 will automatically apply to the Plan in lieu of the
schedule provided in Article IV.  The minimum vesting schedule applies to all
accrued benefits within the meaning of Code Section 411(a)(7) (except those
attributable to Participant contributions, if any), including benefits accrued
before the Plan became Top-Heavy.  Further, no reduction in vested benefits may
occur in the event the Plan’s status as Top-Heavy changes for any Plan Year. 
However, this Section does not apply to the Accrued Benefit of any Employee who
does not complete any Vesting Service regarding any period after the Plan has
initially become Top-Heavy and such Employee’s Accrued Benefit will be
determined without regard to this Section.

 

11.4                        Vesting Schedule

 

In the event the minimum vesting schedule shall apply, the nonforfeitable
interest of each Participant in his Accrued Benefit attributable to Employer
contributions shall be determined on the basis of the following:

 

NUMBER OF YEARS OF SERVICE

 

VESTED INTEREST

 

 

 

 

 

Less than 2 Years

 

0

%

 

 

 

 

2 Years but less than 3

 

20

%

 

 

 

 

3 Years but less than 4

 

40

%

 

 

 

 

4 Years but less than 5

 

60

%

 

 

 

 

5 Years or more

 

100

%

 

11.5                        Top-Heavy Determination

 

A Top-Heavy Plan is a Plan in which, as of the Valuation Date, the ratio of the
present value of the accrued benefits for Key Employees to the present value of
the accrued benefits for all Employees exceeds 60 percent.  For purposes of
determining the present value of the accrued benefit of any Employee or the
amount of an account of any Employee, distributions made with respect to such
Employee under the Plan (and any plan aggregated with the Plan under Section
416(g)(2) of the Code) during the one-year

 

65

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

 

period ending on the Determination Date must be included.  The preceding
sentence shall apply to distributions under a terminated plan which, had it not
been terminated, would have been aggregated with the Plan under Section
416(g)(2)(A)(i) of the Code.  In the case of a distribution made for a reason
other than severance from employment, death or disability, this provision shall
be applied by substituting five-year period for one-year period.  The accrued
benefits and accounts of an individual who has not performed services for the
Employer during the one-year period ending on the Determination Date shall not
be taken into account.

 

The Determination Date is the last day of the preceding Plan Year.  The
Valuation Date is the day during the Plan Year in which the Determination Date
occurs that is used in computing Plan costs for minimum funding.

 

Present value shall be based on the interest rate and mortality table described
in the second sentence of Section 1.24.  If this Plan is required to be or is
permissively aggregated with any other plan or plans as provided in Section
11.6, the same mortality and interest assumptions shall apply to all plans that
are aggregated.

 

The present value of accrued benefits of any Employee other than a Key Employee
under any defined benefit plan used in testing whether the Plan is Top-Heavy
shall be determined as if such benefits accrued not more rapidly than the
slowest accrual rate permitted under Code Section 411(b)(1)(C) unless the same
accrual method uniformly applies for all defined benefit plans maintained by the
Employer.

 

11.6                        Aggregation Groups

 

The required aggregation group consists of each plan of the Employer in which a
Key Employee is a participant and each other plan of the Employer that enables
any plan of such Employer to meet the qualification requirements of Code Section
401(a)(4) or the minimum participation standards of Code Section 410.  The
Employer may permit any plan not required to be included in an aggregation group
as being part of such group if such group would continue to meet the
qualification requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) and the minimum
participation standards of Code Section 410.

 

66

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

 

Each plan of the Employer required to be included in an aggregation group shall
be treated as a Top-Heavy plan if such group is a Top-Heavy group.  A required
aggregation group will be considered a Top-Heavy group if the sum of the present
value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all defined
benefit plans included in such group and the aggregate of the account balances
of Key Employees under all defined contribution plans included in such groups
increased by the aggregate distributions made in the five-year period ending on
the Determination Date exceeds 60 percent of a similar sum determined for all
Employees.

 

11.7                        Key Employee Defined

 

(a)                                 A Key Employee is any Employee or former
Employee (including any deceased Employee) who at any time during the Plan Year
that includes the Determination Date was (i) an officer of the Employer having
annual compensation greater than $130,000 (as adjusted under
Section 416(i)(1) of the Code for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2002),
(ii) a Five Percent Owner of the Employer or (iii) is a One Percent Owner and
has annual compensation from the Employer of more than $150,000.

 

For purposes of determining if an officer is a Key Employee, annual compensation
means compensation within the meaning of Section 415(c)(3) of the Code.  The
determination of who is a Key Employee will be made in accordance with
Section 416(l)(1) of the Code and the applicable regulations and other guidance
of general applicability thereunder.

 

(b)                                 A Five Percent Owner is any Employee who
owns more than five percent of the outstanding stock of the corporation or stock
possessing more than five percent of the total combined voting power of all
stock of the corporation.

 

(c)                                  A One Percent Owner is any Employee who
owns more than one percent of the outstanding stock of the corporation or stock
possessing more than one percent of the total combined voting power of all stock
of the corporation.

12.1                        Establishment of Retiree Health Plan

 

(a)                                 There is created, established and maintained
under this Plan a separate account known as the Retiree Health Plan Account. 
The Trustee and Plan Administrator agree to hold and administer the Retiree
Health Plan Account, and to receive contributions hereto, for the purpose of
providing for the payment of certain medical expenses, pursuant to
Section 401(h) of the Code, for Covered Retirees and their Covered Dependents
(as such terms are defined below).  The separate account shall be for record
keeping purposes only.  Funds contributed to the Retiree Health Plan Account may
be invested without identification of which investments are allocable to the
Retiree Health Plan Account.

 

(b)                                 (i)                       No part of the
income or corpus of the Retiree Health Plan Account shall be (either within the
taxable year of contribution or thereafter) used for, or diverted to, any
purpose (including the provision of any retirement benefits provided under the
Plan) other than the provision of Medical Benefits, at any time prior to the
satisfaction of all liabilities under this Plan with regard to the payment of
Medical Benefits in accordance with this Article X.  Notwithstanding the above,
the payment of any necessary or appropriate expenses attributable to the
administration of the Retiree Health Plan Account may be made from the income or
corpus of such account.

 

(ii)                                  Notwithstanding any other termination
provisions herein, any amounts in the Retiree Health Plan Account which remain
in such account following satisfaction of all liabilities for the payment of
Medical Benefits arising under this Article X shall be returned to the Employer.

 

68

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

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Medical
Benefits shall be payable to any person who is, or ever has been, a Key
Employee, as defined in Section 11.7, or his Covered Dependents.

 

12.2                        Definitions

 

For purposes of this Article X, the following terms shall have the meaning set
forth below unless otherwise clearly required by the context:

 

(a)                                 “Covered Dependent” shall mean a Covered
Retiree’s dependent who meets the conditions for coverage under the URS Federal
Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan.  In no event will the term Covered Dependent
include any person who is an eligible Covered Retiree himself or any person who
is employed full-time with the Employer.  If both parents of any Covered
Dependent child are eligible Covered Retirees, then the Covered Dependent child
shall be considered as a Covered Dependent of only one of the Covered Retirees.

 

(b)                                 “Covered Retiree” shall mean a Retired
Participant who has completed at least ten (10) Years of Vesting Service on his
Normal Retirement Date or date of eligibility for early retirement.  In no event
shall a Covered Retiree include a person not covered under the URS Federal
Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan, or a person who is or ever was a Key
Employee.

 

(c)                                  “Medical Benefits” shall mean,

 

(i)                                     with respect to a Covered Retiree who
became a Covered Retiree prior to January 1, 2013, a percentage of the Per
Capita Retiree Health Cost, such percentage being equal to $3,400 (as indexed
from time to time) divided by the Per Capita Retiree Health Cost, but in no
event in excess of 100% of such cost.

 

(ii)                                  with respect to a Covered Retiree who
becomes a Covered Retiree on or after January 1, 2013, a percentage of the Per
Capita Retiree Health Cost, such percentage being equal to:

 

69

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

 

(A)                               $3,400 (as indexed from time to time) divided
by the Per Capita Retiree Health Cost, but in no event in excess of 100% of such
cost, through the date immediately preceding the date the Covered Retiree
attains age 65; and

 

(B)                               $1,100 (as indexed from time to time) divided
by the Per Capita Retiree Health Cost, but in no event in excess of 100% of such
cost, on and after the date the Covered Retiree attains age 65.

 

(d)                                 “Per Capita Retiree Health Cost” for any
year means the total annual Employer cost of claims under the URS Federal
Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan, divided by the number of retired employees
covered under that plan at any time during that year.

 

(e)                                  “URS Federal Services, Inc. Retiree Health
Plan” shall mean the URS Federal Services, Inc. (formerly URS Federal Technical
Services, Inc.) VEBA Trust Welfare Benefits Plan and the URS Federal
Services, Inc. (formerly URS Federal Technical Services, Inc.) Non-VEBA Trust
Welfare Benefits Plan, as they relate to retired persons, as they shall be
amended from time to time, and the provisions of such Plans shall be
incorporated by reference herein.

 

(f)                                   “Retired Participant” means an individual
who was an active Participant under this Plan until his retirement date and who
retires from employment with the Employer and is thereupon immediately eligible
to receive retirement benefits hereunder.

 

12.3                        Election to Continue Coverage

 

In the event a Covered Dependent loses coverage as a result of the death or
divorce of a Covered Retiree, such Covered Dependent shall have coverage
continuation rights as shall be provided under the URS Federal Services, Inc.
Retiree Health Plan, and the provisions of such continuation coverage shall be
incorporated by reference with respect to benefits under the URS Federal
Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan Account created hereunder.  Because such
continuation coverage shall be provided under the URS Federal

 

70

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

 

Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan at the Covered Dependent’s expense, no
further benefits will be paid from the Retiree Health Plan Account with respect
to such Covered Dependents.

 

12.4                        Funding Method and Policy

 

All contributions to fund benefits provided under this Section shall be made by
the Employer, except those relating to continuation coverage described in
Section 12.3.  Subject to the restrictions of this Section, the Employer shall
contribute to the Retiree Health Plan Account annually an amount that is
reasonably estimated to cover the total cost of the benefits to be provided
hereunder and that satisfies the general requirements applicable to deductions
allowable under Code Section 404 (as set forth in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.404(a)-3(f)).  The total cost of providing Medical Benefits shall be
determined in accordance with any generally accepted actuarial method that is
reasonable in view of the provisions and coverage of the Plan, the funding
medium, and other applicable considerations.

 

12.5                        Subordination to Retirement Benefits

 

It is intended that the Medical Benefits provided under this Article X be
subordinate at all times to the retirement benefits provided under the Plan. 
Therefore, the aggregate of contributions to the Retiree Health Plan Account
shall at no time exceed 25 percent of the aggregate of contributions for all
purposes of this Plan, other than contributions to fund past service credits. 
For this purpose contributions to this plan for benefits other than Medical
Benefits shall not be deemed to be less than the cost of such benefits
determined under the projected unit credit method (other than the cost of past
service credits).

 

12.6                        Benefits Provision

 

The benefits payable pursuant to this Section shall be limited to the payment of
Medical Benefits for Covered Retirees and their Covered Dependents.  The Medical
Benefits provided under this Section and the Employer contributions to fund said
Benefits shall not discriminate in favor of the highly compensated employees of
the Employer within the meaning of Code Section 414(q).

 

71

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

 

12.7                        Coordination with URS Federal Services, Inc. Retiree
Health Plan

 

Benefits under this plan shall be provided by reimbursing annually the Employer
or other paying agent under the URS Federal Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan
for the percentage of the Per Capita Retiree Health Cost for each Covered
Retiree.

 

12.8                        Reservation of the Right to Terminate Benefits

 

The Employer reserves the right to amend or terminate the Medical Benefits
provided hereunder or the URS Federal Services, Inc. Retiree Health Plan at any
time.  In such event assets in the Medical Benefit Account shall be used to
provide the Medical Benefits provided hereunder, both to Covered Retirees and
those Participants who at the date of termination subsequently become Covered
Retirees, but only to the extent assets remain in such account.  After the
satisfaction of all such liabilities, any assets remaining shall revert to the
Employer.

 

12.9                        Disallowance of Deduction

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of
Section 6.2(a) and (c) shall apply with respect to all contributions made to the
Retiree Health Plan Account.

 

72

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

 

ARTICLE XIII
AMENDMENT, MERGER AND TERMINATION

 

13.1                        Amendment of Plan

 

The Board of Directors reserves the right at any time and from time to time,
and, to the extent permitted by the Code or Treasury Regulations, retroactively
if deemed necessary or appropriate, to amend in whole or in part any or all of
the provisions of the Plan.  However, no amendment shall make it possible for
any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other
than for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled to benefits under the Plan
before the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to them.  No amendment
shall be made that has the effect of decreasing the Accrued Benefit of any
Participant or of reducing the nonforfeitable percentage of the Accrued Benefit
of a Participant below the nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan as
in effect on the date on which the amendment is adopted or, if later, the date
on which the amendment becomes effective.  For purposes of the preceding
sentence, an amendment that has the effect of (i) eliminating or reducing an
early retirement benefit or a retirement-type subsidy, or (ii) eliminating an
optional form of benefit, with respect to benefits attributable to service
before the amendment shall be treated as reducing Accrued Benefits.  In the case
of a retirement-type subsidy, the preceding sentence shall apply only with
respect to a Participant who satisfies (either before or after the amendment)
the preamendment conditions for the subsidy.  If the Plan is amended in any way
that directly or indirectly affects the computation of a Participant’s
nonforfeitable percentage, each Participant with at least three Years of Vesting
Service may elect, within a reasonable period after the adoption of the
amendment, to have his nonforfeitable percentage computed without regard to such
amendment.

 

No amendment which has the effect of increasing Plan liabilities by reason of
increases in benefits, establishment of new benefits, changing the rate of
benefit accrual, or changing the rate at which benefits become nonforfeitable
may take effect during any Plan Year if the Plan’s AFTAP (as defined in
Section 4.10(d)(i)) for such Plan Year is less than 80% (or would be less than
80% taking into account such amendment); provided that this

 

73

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

 

Section shall cease to apply to any Plan Year, effective as of the first day of
such Plan Year, upon payment by the Employer of a contribution (in addition to
any minimum required contribution under Code Section 430) equal to the amount of
the increase in the Plan’s funding target under Code Section 430 for the Plan
Year attributable to the amendment (or sufficient to result in an AFTAP of
80%).  This paragraph of Section 13.1 shall not apply to any amendment which
provides for an increase in benefits under a formula which is not based on a
Participant’s compensation, but only if the rate of such increase is not in
excess of the contemporaneous rate of increase in average wages of Participants
covered by the amendment.

 

13.2                        Merger or Consolidation

 

The Plan may not be merged or consolidated with, and its assets or liabilities
may not be transferred to, any other plan unless each person entitled to
benefits under the Plan would, if the resulting plan were then terminated,
receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer that
is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive
immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer if the Plan had then
terminated.

 

13.3                        Additional Participating Employers

 

(a)                                 If any company is or becomes a subsidiary of
or associated with the Company, the Board of Directors may include the employees
of that subsidiary or associated company in the participation of the Plan upon
appropriate action by that company necessary to adopt the Plan.  In that event,
or if any persons become Employees of an Employer as the result of merger or
consolidation or acquisition of all or part of the assets or business of another
company or for purposes of a specific assignment at a specific location, the
Board of Directors shall determine to what extent, if any, previous service with
the subsidiary, associated or other company or at the specific location shall be
recognized under the Plan, but subject to the continued qualification and
tax-exempt status of the Plan and trust, respectively, under the Code.

 

74

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

 

(b)                                 Any Employer may terminate its participation
in and withdraw from the Plan upon appropriate action by its board of directors,
in which event the funds of the Plan held on account of Participants in the
employ of that Employer shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and shall
be applied as provided in Section 13.4 if the Plan should be terminated, or
shall be segregated by the Trustee as a separate trust, pursuant to
certification to the Trustee by the Plan Administrator, continuing the Plan as a
separate plan for the employees of that Employer under which the board of
directors of that Employer shall succeed to all the powers and duties of the
Board of Directors, including the appointment of a plan administrator.  Except
as required by applicable law, the withdrawal of an Employer from the Plan shall
not constitute a partial or complete termination of the Plan as thereafter in
effect with respect to any other Employer.

 

13.4                        Termination of Plan

 

The Employer intends to continue the Plan indefinitely.  However, the Board of
Directors may terminate the Plan for any reason at any time.  In case of
termination of the Plan, the rights of Participants to the benefits accrued
under the Plan to the date of the termination, to the extent then funded or
guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, if greater, shall be
nonforfeitable.  The funds of the Plan shall be used for the exclusive benefit
of persons entitled to benefits under the Plan as of the date of termination,
except as provided in Section 6.2.  However, any funds not required to satisfy
all liabilities of the Plan for benefits because of erroneous actuarial
computation shall be returned to the Employer.  The Plan Administrator shall
determine on the basis of actuarial valuation the share of the funds of the Plan
allocable to each person entitled to benefits under the Plan in accordance with
Section 4044 of ERISA or corresponding provision of any applicable law in effect
at the time.  In the event of a partial termination of the Plan, the provisions
of this Section shall be applicable to the Participants affected by that partial
termination.

 

75

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

 

ARTICLE XIV
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

14.1                        Compliance with ERISA

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, nothing above or any other
provision contained elsewhere in the Plan shall relieve a fiduciary or other

voluntary or involuntary, including any such liability which is for alimony or
other payment for the support of a spouse or former spouse, or any relative of a
Participant prior to actually being received by the person entitled to the
benefit pursuant to the terms of the Plan.  Any attempt to anticipate, alienate,
sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, charge or otherwise dispose of any
right to amounts payable hereunder shall be void.  Furthermore, no benefit under
the Plan shall in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts,
liabilities, engagements or torts of the person entitled to such benefit.  If
the terms of this Section 14.4 are contrary to the law governing in a particular
circumstance, then, only as to that circumstance, or any such payment shall be
exempt to the maximum extent permitted by such law.

 

14.3                        Employment Not Guaranteed By Plan

benefit pursuant to the Plan shall be construed as giving any Participant the
right to continue as

or impose penalties upon the Participant or as modifying in any other way the
terms of employment of any Participant.

permitted to be made by or to a Participant, the Plan Administrator, the
Company, or an Employer in writing shall be made in such form as the Plan
Administrator shall prescribe.  Such communication shall be effective upon
mailing if sent first class, postage prepaid and addressed to the addressee at
its principal office, or to the Participant at his last known address, or upon
personal delivery, if delivered to an officer of the addressee or to the
Participant, as the case may be.

 

14.5                        Facility of Payment

 

In the event that the Participant entitled to receive payments hereunder is

duly qualified guardian or legal representative is appointed for such
Participant, the Plan Administrator shall direct the Trustees to pay any amount
to which the Participant is entitled to such duly.  qualified guardian or legal
representative upon claim of such guardian or legal representative.  If a duly
qualified guardian or legal representative is not appointed for such
Participant, the Plan Administrator shall direct the Trustees to pay any amount
to which the Participant is entitled to such person’s Spouse, child, grandchild,
parent, brother or sister or to a person deemed by the Plan Administrator to
have incurred expense for such person entitled to payment.  Any payment made
pursuant to this Section 14.7 in good faith shall be a payment for the account
of the Participant and shall be a complete discharge from any liability of the
Trust Fund or the Trustees therefor.

 

14.6                        Service in More Than One Fiduciary Capacity

 

Any individual, entity or group of persons may serve in more than one fiduciary
capacity with respect to the Plan, the Trust Fund or both.
