ARTICLE I – FOREWORD
 
YUM! Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) established the YUM! Brands Leadership
Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) to benefit selected executives who are not eligible
to participate in the YUM! Brands Retirement Plan.  The Plan was effective as of
April 1, 2002, and it was originally known as the Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan.

This document is effective as of January 1, 2005 (the “Effective
Date”).  Effective January 1, 2008, this document was amended and restated to
add additional eligible executives and make certain other design changes.  In
December 2008, this document was further amended and restated to make certain
changes for Section 409A and other items.

This document sets forth the terms of the Plan that are applicable to benefits
that are subject to Section 409A, i.e., generally, benefits that are earned or
vested after December 31, 2004 (the “409A Program”).  Other benefits under the
Plan shall be governed by a separate set of documents that set forth the
pre-Section 409A terms of the Plan (the “Pre-409A Program”).  Together, this
document and the documents for the Pre-409A Program describe the terms of a
single plan.  However, amounts subject to the terms of this 409A Program and
amounts subject to the terms of the Pre-409A Program shall be tracked separately
at all times.  The preservation of the terms of the Pre-409A Program, without
material modification, and the separation between the 409A Program amounts and
the Pre-409A Program amounts are intended to be sufficient at all times to
permit the Pre-409A Program to remain exempt from Section 409A.

With respect to benefits covered by this document, this document sets forth the
terms of the Plan, specifying the group of executives of the Company and certain
affiliated employers who are eligible to participate and the Plan’s general
provisions for determining and distributing benefits.  Additional and alternate
provisions applicable to certain eligible executive’s benefits are set forth in
the Appendix.

The Plan is unfunded and unsecured for purposes of the Code and ERISA.  The
benefits of an executive are an obligation of that executive’s individual
employer.  With respect to his employer, the executive has the rights of an
unsecured general creditor.

 
1

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

 

ARTICLE II – DEFINITIONS
 
When used in this Plan, the following bold terms shall have the meanings set
forth below unless a different meaning is plainly required by the context:

2.01           Allocation Date:
 
The date as of which an Employer Credit is credited to the Participant’s LRP
Account.  Except as otherwise provided in the Appendix for one or more specific
Participants, the last business day of each Plan Year shall be an Allocation
Date.  In addition, when a Participant no longer is an active Participant, the
last day of the calendar quarter containing his Termination Date shall also be
an Allocation Date.

2.02           Authorized Leave of Absence:
 
A period of time when a Participant is considered to remain in the employment of
his Employer (except as provided below) while not actively rendering services to
his Employer as a result of one or more of the following –

(a)           Any absence of 6 months or less (or 24 months or less, if the
Participant retains a contractual right to return to work) that is authorized by
an Employer under the Employer’s standard personnel practices, whether paid or
unpaid, as long as there is a reasonable expectation that the Participant will
return to perform services for the Employer;

(b)           A leave of absence pursuant to the Uniformed Services Employment
and Reemployment Rights Act (“USERRA”); or

(c)           A leave of absence pursuant to the Family Medical Leave Act
(“FMLA”) or any other similar family medical leave law of a particular state, if
such law provides for a longer leave of absence than the FMLA.

2.03           Base Compensation:
 
An Eligible Executive’s gross base salary, as determined by the Plan
Administrator and to the extent paid in U.S. dollars from an Employer’s U.S.
payroll for a period that the Eligible Executive is an active Participant in the
Plan.  For any applicable period, an Eligible Executive’s gross base salary
shall be determined without regard to any reductions that may apply to the base
salary, including applicable tax withholdings, Executive-authorized deductions
(including deductions for the YUM! Brands 401(k) Plan and applicable health and
welfare benefits), tax levies and garnishments.

2.04           Beneficiary:
 
The person or persons (including a trust or trusts) properly designated by a
Participant, as determined by the Plan Administrator, to receive the
Participant’s Vested LRP Account in the event of the Participant's death.  To be
effective, any Beneficiary designation must be in writing, signed by the
Participant, and filed with the Plan Administrator prior to the Participant’s
death, and it must meet such other standards (including the requirement for
spousal consent to the naming of a non-Spouse beneficiary by a married
Participant) as the Plan Administrator shall require from time to time.  An
incomplete Beneficiary designation, as determined by the Plan Administrator,
shall be void and of no effect.  If some but not all of the persons designated
by a Participant to receive his Vested LRP Account at death predecease the
Participant, the Participant’s surviving Beneficiaries shall be entitled to the
portion of the Participant’s Vested LRP Account intended for such pre-deceased
persons in proportion to the surviving Beneficiaries’ respective shares;
provided that primary beneficiaries shall be paid before contingent
beneficiaries.  If no designation is in effect at the time of a Participant’s
death or if all designated Beneficiaries have predeceased the Participant, then
the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be (i) in the case of a Participant who is
married at death, the Participant’s Spouse, or (ii) in the case of a Participant
who is not married at death, the Participant’s estate.  In determining whether a
Beneficiary designation that relates to the Plan is in effect, unrevoked
designations that were received prior to the Effective Date of the 409A Program
shall be considered.  A Beneficiary designation of an individual by name (or
name and relationship) remains in effect regardless of any change in the
designated individual’s relationship to the Participant.  A Beneficiary
designation solely by relationship (for example, a designation of “Spouse,” that
does not give the name of the Spouse) shall designate whoever is the person (if
any) in that relationship to the Participant at his death.  An individual who is
otherwise a Beneficiary with respect to a Participant’s Vested LRP Account
ceases to be a Beneficiary when all applicable payments have been made from the
LRP Account.

2

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

 
2.05           Bonus Compensation:
 
The gross amount of an Eligible Executive’s target annual incentive or bonus
award, which shall be equal to the Eligible Executive’s current annualized Base
Compensation in effect as of the applicable Allocation Date multiplied by the
Eligible Executive’s current target bonus percentage, in effect as of the
applicable Allocation Date, under his Employer’s annual incentive or bonus
plan.  Bonus Compensation shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and
shall only be taken into account to the extent paid in U.S. dollars from an
Employer’s U.S. payroll.  An Eligible Executive’s Bonus Compensation shall be
determined without regard to any reductions that may apply, including applicable
tax withholdings, Executive-authorized deductions (including deductions for the
YUM! Brands 401(k) Plan and applicable health and welfare benefits), tax levies,
and garnishments.

2.06           Break in Service Payment Election:
 
The election to defer the distribution of a Participant’s Pre-Break Subaccount,
if applicable, pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.03.

2.07           Change in Control:
 
A “Change in Control” shall be deemed to occur if the event set forth in any one
of the following paragraphs shall have occurred:

 
3

indirectly, of securities of the Company (not including in the securities
beneficially owned by such Person any securities acquired directly from the

of the Company’s then outstanding securities, excluding any Person who becomes
such a Beneficial Owner in connection with a transaction described in clause (i)
of Subsection (c) below;

(b)           The following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a
majority of the number of directors then serving; individuals who, on the date
hereof, constitute the Board and any new director (other than a director whose

directors of the Company), whose appointment or election by the Board or
nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved or
recommended by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still
in office who either were directors on the date hereof or whose appointment,
election or nomination for election was previously so approved or recommended;
or

(c)           There is consummated a merger or consolidation of the Company or

Company or the surviving or resulting entity or any parent thereof, or (ii) a
merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company
(or similar transaction) in which no Person is or becomes the Beneficial Owner,
directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company (not including in the
securities beneficially owned by such Person any securities acquired directly
from the Company or an Affiliate) representing 20% or more of the combined
voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a “Change in Control” shall not be deemed to have
occurred by virtue of the consummation of any transaction or series of
integrated transactions immediately following which the record holders of the
common stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of
transactions continue to have substantially the same proportionate ownership in
an entity which owns all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
immediately following such transaction or series of transactions.

For purposes of the foregoing, the following capitalized and underlined words
shall have the meanings ascribed to them below:

“Affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 under Section 12 of
the Exchange Act.

other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) an underwriter temporarily holding securities
pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (iv) a corporation owned,
directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the
same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company.

“Subsidiary” means any corporation, partnership, joint venture or other entity
during any period in which at least a fifty percent voting or profits interest

The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

2.09           Company:
 
YUM! Brands, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the
State of North Carolina, or its successor or successors.

2.10           Disability:
 
A Participant shall be considered to suffer from a Disability, if, in the
judgment of the Plan Administrator (determined in accordance with the provisions
of Section 409A), the Participant –

(a)           Is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason
of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be
expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period
of not less than 12 months, or

impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last
for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, is receiving income
replacement benefits for a period of not less than 3 months under an accident
and health plan of the Company (including the YUM! Brands Short-Term Disability
Plan and the YUM! Brands Long-Term Disability Plan).

A Participant who has received a Social Security disability award will be
conclusively deemed to satisfy the requirements of Subsection (a).  In turn, a
Participant who has not received a Social Security disability award will be
conclusively deemed to not meet the requirements of Subsection (a).
 

The related term, “Disabled,” shall mean to suffer from a Disability.

 
5

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

 
 

2.11           Disability Benefits:
 
The receipt by a Participant of short-term disability benefits from the YUM!
Brands Short-Term Disability Plan (or such other short-term disability plan
sponsored by his Employer) or long-term disability benefits from the YUM! Brands
Long-Term Disability Plan (or such other long-term disability plan sponsored by
his Employer).

2.12           Disability Leave of Absence:
 
A continuous period of absence during which the Participant is receiving
Disability Benefits.  A Participant’s Disability Leave of Absence shall end on
the earlier of the date when the Participant is no longer receiving Disability
Benefits or the date that the Participant is entitled to payment under Section
5.03 as a result of the Participant’s Separation from Service (i.e., when the
Participant Separates from Service as a result of his Disability or age 55, if
later).  However, if the Participant executes a valid Disability Payment
Election pursuant to Section 4.02, such Participant’s Disability Leave of
Absence shall be extended until the specific payment date listed in the
Disability Payment Election (or such later Disability Payment Election).  The
Participant shall be considered to be on a Disability Leave of Absence without
regard to whether the Participant is generally considered to be a continuing
Employee of the Employer.

2.13           Disability Payment Election:
 
The voluntary election that can be made by a Disabled Participant under Section
4.02 to extend his Disability Leave of Absence and the payment of his LRP
Benefits.

2.14           Earnings Credit:
 
The increment added to a Participant’s LRP Account as a result of crediting the
account with a return based on the Participant’s Earnings Rate.

2.15           Earnings Rate:
 
(a)           Earnings Rate as of the Effective Date.  As of the Effective Date,
the Earnings Rate shall be 6% per annum, compounded annually.  In the event a
Valuation Date occurs less than 12 months after the prior Valuation Date, this
Earnings Rate shall be converted to a rate for the period since the last
Valuation Date by reducing it to a rate that is appropriate for such shorter
period.  Such reduction shall be done in a way that would result in the
specified 6% annual rate of return being earned for the number of such periods
that equals one year.  The Earnings Rate is used to determine the Earnings
Credit that is credited to the Participant’s LRP Account from time to time
pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.01(d).

(b)           Earnings Rate from and after July 1, 2006.  Except as provided in
the Appendix, from and after July 1, 2006, the Earnings Rate for all
Participants shall be 5% per annum, compounded annually.  In the event a
Valuation Date occurs less than 12 months after the prior Valuation Date, this
Earnings Rate shall be converted to a rate for the period since the last
Valuation Date by reducing it to a rate that is appropriate for such shorter
period.  Such reduction shall be done in a way that would result in the
specified 5% annual rate of return being earned for the number of such periods
that equals one year.  The Earnings Rate is used to determine the Earnings
Credit that is credited to the Participant’s LRP Account from time to time
pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.01(d).

 
6

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

 

 
(c)           Adjustments to the Earnings Rate.  As provided by Section 5.01(d),
the Earnings Rate shall be evaluated and may be revised by the Company on an
annual basis.

2.16           Employer:
 
The Company, and each division of the Company and each of the Company’s
subsidiaries and affiliates (if any) that is currently designated as an adopting
Employer of the Plan by the Company.  Where there is a question as to whether a
particular division, subsidiary or affiliate is an Employer under the Plan, the
determination of the Plan Administrator shall be absolutely conclusive.  An
entity shall be an Employer hereunder only for the period that it is – (a) so
determined by the Plan Administrator, and (b) a member of the YUM! Organization.

2.17           Employer Credit / Employer Credit Percentage:
 
The Employer Credit is an amount that is credited to a Participant’s LRP Account
as of each Allocation Date pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.01(b) and (c)
or the Appendix.  The “Employer Credit Percentage” is the percentage in Section
5.01(b) of Base Compensation or Bonus Compensation (or both), which is used to
calculate a Participant’s Employer Credit pursuant to Section 5.01(c).

2.18           ERISA:
 
Public Law 93-406, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended from time to time.

2.19           Executive / Eligible Executive:
 
An “Executive” is any individual in an executive classification of an Employer
who (i) is receiving remuneration for personal services that he or she is
currently rendering in the employment of an Employer (or who is on an Authorized
Leave of Absence), and (ii) is paid in U.S. dollars from the Employer’s U.S.
payroll.  An “Eligible Executive” shall have the meaning provided in Section
3.01.

2.20           409A Program:
 
The program described in this document.  The term “409A Program” is used to
identify the portion of the Plan that is subject to Section 409A.

 
7

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

 

2.21           Key Employee:
 
The individuals identified in accordance with principles set forth in Subsection
(a), as modified by the following provisions of this Section.

(a)           In General.  Any Eligible Executive or former Eligible Executive
who at any time during the applicable year is –

(1)           An officer of an Employer having annual compensation greater than
$130,000 (as adjusted under Code Section 416(i)(1));

(2)           A 5-percent owner of an Employer; or

(3)           A 1-percent owner of an Employer having annual compensation of
more than $150,000.

For purposes of (1) above, no more than 50 employees identified in the order of
their annual compensation (or, if lesser, the greater of 3 employees or 10
percent of the employees) shall be treated as officers.  For purposes of this
Section, annual compensation means compensation as defined in Code Section
415(c)(3).  The Plan Administrator shall determine who is a Key Employee in
accordance with Code Section 416(i) and the applicable regulations and other
guidance of general applicability issued thereunder or in connection therewith
(including the provisions of Code Section 416(i)(3) that treat self employed
individuals as employees for purposes of this definition); provided, that Code
Section 416(i)(5) shall not apply in making such determination, and provided
further that the applicable year shall be determined in accordance with Section
409A and that any modification of the foregoing definition that applies under
Section 409A shall be taken into account.

(b)           Special Operating Rules.  To ensure that the Company does not fail
to identify any Key Employees based on the provisions of Subsection (a), the
Company shall treat as Key Employees for the Plan Year of their Separation from
Service those individuals who meet the provisions of paragraph (1) or (2) below
(or both).

(1)           The Company shall treat as Key Employees all Eligible Executives
(and former Eligible Executives) that are classified for any portion of the Plan
Year of their Separation from Service as Level 15 and above; and

(2)           The Company shall treat as a Key Employee any Eligible Executive
who would be a Key Employee as of his Separation from Service date based on the
standards in this paragraph (2).  For purposes of this paragraph (2), the
Company shall determine Key Employees under Subsection (a)(1) and (3) above
based on compensation (as defined in Code Section 415(c)(3)) that is taken into
account as follows:

 
8

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

 

(i)           If the determination is in connection with a Separation from
Service in the first calendar quarter of a Plan Year, the determination shall be
made using compensation earned in the calendar year that is two years prior to
the current calendar year (e.g., for a determination made in the first quarter
of 2005, compensation earned in the 2003 calendar year shall be used); and

(ii)           If the determination is in connection with a Separation from
Service in the second, third or fourth calendar quarter of a Plan Year, the
determination shall be made using the compensation earned in the prior calendar
year (e.g., for a determination made in the second quarter of 2005, compensation
earned in the 2004 calendar year shall be used).

In addition, a Participant shall be considered an officer for purposes of
Subsection (a)(1), a 5-percent owner for purposes of Subsection (a)(2) or a
1-percent owner for purposes of Subsection (a)(3) with respect to a Separation
from Service distribution, if the Participant was an officer, a 5-percent owner
or a 1-percent owner (as applicable) at some point during the calendar year that
applies, in accordance with Subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, in determining the
Participant’s compensation for purposes of that Separation from Service.

2.22           LRP Account:
 
The individual account maintained for a Participant on the books of his Employer
that indicates the dollar amount that, as of any time, is credited under the
Plan for the benefit of the Participant.  The balance in such LRP Account shall
be determined by the Plan Administrator.  The Plan Administrator may establish
one or more subaccounts as it deems necessary for the proper administration of
the Plan, and may also combine one or more subaccounts to the extent it deems
separate subaccounts are not then needed for sound recordkeeping.  Where
appropriate, a reference to a Participant’s LRP Account shall include a
reference to each applicable subaccount that has been established
thereunder.  “Pre-Break Subaccount” and “Post-Break Subaccount” shall have the
meanings given to them in Section 3.04.

2.23           LRP Benefit:
 
The amount or amounts that are distributable to a Participant (or Beneficiary)
in accordance with Section 5.03.  A Participant’s LRP Benefit shall be
determined by the Plan Administrator based on the terms of the entire Plan.

2.24           One-Year Break in Service:
 
A 12 consecutive-month period beginning on a Participant’s Separation from
Service and ending on the first anniversary of such date.  Subsequent One-Year
Breaks in Service shall begin on the first and later anniversaries of such date
and end on the next following anniversary.  A Break in Service shall continue
until the Participant is reemployed as an eligible Executive.  No break in
service shall begin until after a Participant is no longer an active Participant
pursuant to Section 3.03(b).

 
9

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

 

2.25           Participant:
Any Executive who is qualified to participate in this Plan in accordance with
Section 3.01 and for whom an Employer maintains on its books a LRP Account.  An
active Participant is one who is due an Employer Credit for the Plan Year (as

3.03           Termination of Participation.
(a)           General.  Except as modified below and except as provided in
subsection (b), an individual’s eligibility to participate actively in this Plan
shall cease upon his “Termination Date,” which is the earliest to occur of the
following:

(1)           The date the individual ceases to be an Eligible Executive; or

(2)           The first day an individual begins a period of severance (i.e.,
the period that follows a Separation from Service).

Notwithstanding the prior sentence, an individual shall continue to participate
actively in this Plan during a period of an Authorized Leave of Absence, and an
individual who is on an Authorized Leave of Absence shall have a “Termination
Date” on the day the individual does not return to active work at the end of
such Authorized Leave of Absence.  The calculation of an individual’s Employer
Credit shall not take into account any compensation earned from and after his
Termination Date.  In addition, a Participant’s Participation Period for
purposes of determining Years of Participation shall end on the Participant’s
Termination Date.  If an individual incurs a Termination Date but otherwise
remains an employee of the YUM! Organization (e.g., does not incur a Separation
from Service), such individual shall continue to accrue Years of Service while
remaining in the employ of the YUM! Organization.

(b)           Disability Leave of Absence.  Notwithstanding subsection (a)
above, an individual shall continue to participate actively in this Plan during
a period of a Disability Leave of Absence.  Accordingly, such individual shall
have a “Termination Date” on the last day of his Disability Leave of
Absence.  If the Participant executes a valid Disability Payment Election
pursuant to Section 4.02, such Participant’s Disability Leave of Absence shall
be extended until the specific payment date listed in the Disability Payment
Election (or such later Disability Payment Election).  However, if the
Participant’s Disability Leave of Absence terminates due to the Participant’s
cessation of Disability Benefits and he returns to active work with an Employer,
such Participant shall not have a Termination Date (and active participation
shall continue) if the Participant returns to work as an eligible Executive
pursuant to Section 3.01.  A Participant’s Participation Period for purposes of
determining Years of Participation shall end on the Participant’s Termination
Date.  Active participation in this Plan shall continue as provided above
without regard to whether the Participant is generally considered to be a
continuing Employee of the Employer.

(c)           Effect of Distribution of Benefits.  An individual, who has been a
Participant under the Plan, ceases to be a Participant on the date his Vested
LRP Account is fully distributed.

3.04           Break in Service.
 
(a)           Less than a One-Year Break in Service.  If a Participant incurs a
break in service and returns in an eligible classification, but such break in
service is less than a One-Year Break in Service, such Participant shall be
deemed to not have incurred a Termination Date and his Participation Period,
Years of Service, Employer Credit and Earnings Credit shall be recomputed as if
such break in service never occurred.

 
15

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

 
 

(b)           One-Year Break in Service – Vested Participants.  A Participant
who has satisfied the requirements for vesting under Section 5.02 at the time he
incurs a One-Year Break in Service and who is again employed at any time
thereafter in an eligible classification shall re-participate in this Plan as of
the date he becomes an eligible Executive.  Such individual’s pre-break Years of
Service shall be restored in determining his rights and benefits under the
Plan.  In addition, such individual shall begin a new Participation Period
beginning with the date he once again becomes an active Participant pursuant to
Section 3.02.  However, such individual shall not be entitled to an Employer
Credit for the period of the break.

(c)           One-Year Break in Service – Non-Vested Participants.  Any
Participant not described in subsection (b) who incurs a One-Year Break in
Service and who is again employed in an eligible classification shall
re-participate in this Plan as of the date he becomes an eligible
Executive.  His pre-break Years of Service shall be restored, but only if the
number of his consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service is less than the greater
of: (i) 5, or (ii) the aggregate number of his pre-break Years of Service.  In
addition, such individual shall begin a new Participation Period beginning with
the date he once again becomes an active Participant pursuant to Section
3.02.  However, such individual shall not be entitled to an Employer Credit for
the period of the break.

(d)           Break in Service Subaccounts.  If a Participant incurs a break in
service under this Section and the Participant did not receive a distribution of
his LRP Benefit during or as a result of the break in service (e.g., the break
in service occurs prior to the Participant’s 55th birthday), the Employer
Credits (and the Earnings Credits related thereto) that are credited after the
break in service shall be credited to a separate subaccount of the Participant’s
LRP Account (the “Post-Break Subaccount”).  The Post-Break Subaccount shall be
separately distributed from the value of the Participant’s pre-break LRP
Account, which shall be referred to as the “Pre-Break Subaccount.”  An affected
Participant shall be able to extend the payment date of the Participant’s
Pre-Break Subaccount by making a Break in Service Payment Election pursuant to
Section 4.03.  A Participant’s Pre-Break Subaccount and Post-Break Subaccount
shall consist of the Participant’s entire LRP Account.  A Participant who has a
Pre-Break and Post-Break Subaccount shall be referred to as a “Break in Service
Participant.”

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

 

ARTICLE IV – ELECTIONS
 
4.01           Beneficiaries.
 
A Participant shall be able to designate, on a form provided by the Plan

paid in accordance with the terms of the Beneficiary designation form, as
interpreted by the Plan Administrator in accordance with the terms of this
Plan.  At any time, a Participant may change a Beneficiary designation by
completing a new Beneficiary designation form that is signed by the Participant

elections to extend the time of payment of his LRP Benefit.  This opportunity to
extend the Participant’s time of payment is referred to as a “Disability Payment
Election.”

(b)           Requirements for Disability Payment Elections.  A Disability
Payment Election must comply with all of the following requirements:

(1)           If a Participant’s LRP Benefit will be paid at age 55 pursuant to

Payment Election no later than 12 months before the Participant’s 55th birthday;
provided however a Participant can make a valid Disability Payment Election
within 12 months of his 55th birthday, if the Participant’s 55th birthday is in

Election during the 2008 calendar year.

(2)           If a Participant’s LRP Benefit will be paid at Separation from

Disability Payment Election at least 12 months before his Separation from
Service; provided however a Participant can make a valid Disability Payment
Election within 12 months of his Separation from Service, if the Participant’s
Separation from Service occurs in the 2009 calendar year and if the Participant
makes the Disability Payment Election during the 2008 calendar year.

(3)           A Participant’s first Disability Payment Election must specify a

A Disability Payment Election will be void and payment will be made based on the
provisions of the Plan other than this Section 4.02, if all of the provisions of
the foregoing paragraphs of this subsection are not satisfied in full.  A
Participant’s Disability Payment Election shall become effective 12 months after
the date on which the election is made pursuant to Section 409A(a)(4)(C)(i).  If
a Participant’s Disability Payment Election becomes effective in accordance with
the provisions of this subsection, the Participant’s prior payment date shall be
superseded (including any specific payment date specified in a prior Disability
Payment Election).

(c)           Plan Administrator’s Role.  Each Participant has the sole
responsibility to make a Disability Payment Election by contacting the Plan
Administrator and to comply with the requirements of this Section.  The Plan
Administrator may provide a notice of a Disability Payment Election opportunity
to some or all affected Participants, but the Plan Administrator is under no
obligation to provide such notice (or to provide it to all affected
Participants, in the event a notice is provided only to some Participants).  The
Plan Administrator has no discretion to waive or otherwise modify any
requirement set forth in this Section or in Section 409A.

provisions of the foregoing paragraphs of this subsection are not satisfied in
full.  A Participant’s Break in Service Payment Election shall become effective
12 months after the date on which the election is made pursuant to Section
409A(a)(4)(C)(i).  If a Participant’s Break in Service Payment Election becomes

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

 

ARTICLE V – PARTICIPANT LRP BENEFITS
 
5.01           Credits to a Participant’s LRP Account.
 
(a)           General.  The Plan Administrator shall credit to each
Participant’s LRP Account the Employer Credit (if any) and the Earnings Credit
at the times and in the manner specified in this Section.  A Participant’s LRP
Account is solely a bookkeeping device to track the value of his LRP Benefit
(and the Employer’s liability therefor).  No assets shall be reserved or
segregated in connection with any LRP Account, and no LRP Account shall be
insured or otherwise secured.

(b)           Employer Credit Percentage.  A Participant’s Employer Credit
Percentage (if any) shall be determined under the following subsections –

(1)           For Periods From and After January 1, 2008.  For Plan Years
beginning from and after January 1, 2008, unless otherwise provided in the
Appendix for one or more specific Participants, a Participant’s Employer Credit
Percentage (if any) shall be equal to (i) 1.0% for a Participant of any level
whose age is less than 40 as of the Allocation Date and (ii) the following
applicable percentage for a Participant whose age is 40 or greater as of the
Allocation Date –

Participant Level as of Allocation Date
 
Employer Credit Percentage for
 Participants Age 40 or Greater
 
Level 12
4.5%
Level 13
5.0%
Level 14
5.5%
Level 15
6.5%
Level 16
7.5%
Leadership Team (LT)
8.0%
Partners Council (PC)
9.5%

(2)           For Periods Prior to January 1, 2008.  For Plan Years beginning

9.5%

 
21

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

 

The Participant shall be assigned the corresponding Employer Credit Percentage
for a Plan Year based upon his level (and age) as of the Allocation Date,
regardless of whether the Participant was at that level (or age) for the entire
Plan Year.

(c)           Employer Credit Amount.

(1)           General Rules.  Unless otherwise provided in the Appendix for one
or more specified Participants, the Plan Administrator shall convert the
Employer Credit Percentage into a dollar amount by multiplying the Employer
Credit Percentage by the Participant’s Base Compensation and Bonus Compensation
(each as modified in paragraph (2) below) for the Plan Year, thereafter
crediting the resulting product to the Participant’s LRP Account.  The Employer
Credit shall be determined by the Plan Administrator as soon as administratively
practicable after each Allocation Date and shall be credited to the
Participant’s LRP Account effective as of the Allocation Date.  The calculation
of the Employer Credit by the Plan Administrator shall be conclusive and binding
on all Participants (and their Beneficiaries).  A Participant shall not receive
an Employer Credit for any Allocation Dates that occur after the Participant’s
Termination Date.

(2)           Operating Rules.  The following operating rules shall apply for
purposes of determining a Participant’s Employer Credit under this Subsection
(c):

(i)           The Plan Administrator shall use the Participant’s annualized Base
Compensation in effect on the Allocation Date (without regard to whether the
Participant’s Base Compensation changed during the Plan Year) in determining the
Participant’s Base Compensation and Bonus Compensation.

(ii)           If a Participant has less than 1 full Year of Participation for
the Plan Year (e.g., as may apply in the Participant’s first and last Plan Year
of Participation), the Participant’s Base Compensation and Bonus Compensation
that shall be used shall be multiplied by the Participant’s fractional Year of
Participation for the Plan Year.

(iii)           If the Participant is on an Authorized Leave of Absence or a
Disability Leave of Absence when an Allocation Date occurs, and as of the
Allocation Date the Participant is not treated by his Employer as having
currently applicable information with respect to Base Compensation, Bonus
Compensation or Participant level, then the item or items of information that is
inapplicable shall be replaced with the corresponding information that was
applicable to the Participant as of the day prior to the Participant going on
the Authorized Leave of Absence or Disability Leave of Absence.

(iv)           For those Employer Credits that are made from and after when a
Participant attains age 40, a Participant shall not receive an Employer Credit
under the Plan after the Participant’s LRP Account has been credited with 20
full Employer Credits as an age 40 or older active Participant (i.e., after 20
full Years of Participation as an age 40 or older active Participant in the
Plan).  For this purpose, a Participant’s Years of Participation shall be the
total number that is counted pursuant to the break in service rules in Article
III, and fractional Years of Participation shall be aggregated into full Years
of Participation.  Accordingly, if a Participant has an initial fractional Year
of Participation and thereafter works continuously as an Eligible Executive for
at least 20 years, the Participant would have an initial fractional Year of
Participation, followed by 19 full Years of Participation, and ending with a
fractional Year of Participation, which when added to the initial Year of
Participation results in a full Year of Participation.  Employer Credits that
are made before a Participant attains age 40 shall not be limited pursuant to
this subparagraph.

 
22

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

 
 

(d)           Earnings Credit.

(1)           General Rules.  As of each Valuation Date, the Plan Administrator
shall determine a Participant’s Earnings Credit for the period since the last
Valuation Date by multiplying the Earnings Rate for the period since the last
Valuation Date by the balance of the Participant’s LRP Account as of the current
Valuation Date.  This Earnings Credit will be determined as soon as practicable
after the applicable Valuation Date, and it shall be credited to the
Participant’s LRP Account effective as of such Valuation Date.  If a Participant
has less than 1 full Year of Participation for the Plan Year (e.g., as may apply
in the Participant’s first and last Plan Year of participation), the Participant
shall receive a pro-rated Earnings Credit for that Plan Year that shall be based
upon the Participant’s fractional Year of Participation for the Plan Year that
was earned prior to the Valuation Date on which the pro-rated Earnings Credit
will be made.

(2)           Revisions to Earnings Rate.  As of the end of each Plan Year,
beginning with the end of the 2007 Plan Year, the Company shall analyze the
current Earnings Rate to determine if the rate provides a market rate of
interest.  If the Earnings Rate is considered to provide a market rate of
interest, then the Earnings Rate will remain the same for the following Plan
Year.  If the Company concludes, in its discretion, that the Earnings Rate does
not provide for a market rate of interest, then the Company currently intends to
establish a new Earnings Rate to provide a market rate of interest, and the
Company currently intends that such new Earnings Rate will apply for the
following Plan Year.  The determination of a market rate of interest shall be
entirely within the discretion of the Company and shall be based on such factors
as the Company determines to consider (e.g., the current 30-year Treasury Bond
yield, the current yield on a certificate of deposit equal to the remaining time
period for the average Participant to reach Retirement and the LRP Account
balance for the average Participant, and such other factors as the Company shall
determine in its sole discretion).  The Company’s determination regarding a
market rate of interest is final and non-reviewable, and the Company reserves
the right to revise its intent in this regard.  If the Earnings Rate is revised
for a Plan Year, the Company shall authorize attaching an Exhibit to this Plan
document indicating the revised Earnings Rate and the Plan Year to which it
applies.

The portion of the Participant’s Vested LRP Account that is governed by the
terms of this 409A Program shall be distributed as provided in this
Section.  All distributions shall be paid in cash.  In no event shall any

shall be distributed upon a Participant’s Separation from Service (other than

(2)           If a Participant is less than age 55 on the Participant’s
Separation from Service, the Participant’s Vested LRP Account shall be
distributed in a single lump sum payment as of the last day of the calendar
quarter that occurs on or immediately follows the Participant’s 55th birthday.

(3)           If the Participant is classified as a Key Employee at the time of
the Participant’s Separation from Service (or at such other time for determining
Key Employee status as may apply under Section 409A), then such Participant’s
Vested LRP Account shall not be paid, as a result of the Participant’s
Separation from Service, earlier than the date that is at least 6 months after
the Participant’s Separation from Service.  This shall be implemented as follows
–

(i)           If the Participant is less than age 55 on the Participant’s

LRP Benefit shall be forfeited subject to Section 3.04.

 
25

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

 
 
 
(b)           Distributions Upon Death.  Notwithstanding subsection (a), (c) or

(1)           Upon a Participant’s death, the Participant’s Vested LRP Account
shall be distributed in a single lump sum payment as of the last day of calendar
quarter that occurs on or immediately follows the Participant’s death.  Amounts
paid following a Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s
Beneficiary.

(2)           Any claim to be paid any amounts standing to the credit of a
Participant in connection with the Participant’s death must be received by the
Plan Administrator at least 14 days before any such amount is distributed.  Any
claim received thereafter is untimely, and it shall be unenforceable against the
Plan, the Company, the Plan Administrator or any other party acting for one or
more of them.

(c)           Disability Payment Elections.  If a Participant has made a valid
Disability Payment Election, his Vested LRP Account shall be distributed in a
single lump sum payment on the last day of the calendar quarter that occurs on
or immediately follows the specific payment date selected on the Disability
Payment Election.

(d)           Break in Service.  Subject to subsection (e), a Break in Service
Participant’s Vested LRP Account shall be distributed as follows:

Subaccount shall be distributed in a single lump sum payment as of the last day
of the calendar quarter that occurs on or immediately follows the Participant’s
55th birthday.  However, if a Break in Service Participant has made a valid
Break in Service Payment Election, his Pre-Break Subaccount shall be distributed

Separation from Service) as selected on the Break in Service Payment Election.

(2)           Post-Break Subaccount.  The distribution of a Break in Service
Participant’s Post-Break Subaccount shall be governed by the provisions of
subsection (a).

(e)           Involuntary Cashout.  Notwithstanding subsection (a) or (d), if a
Participant incurs a Separation from Service (other than for death or
Disability) and the Participant’s Vested LRP Benefit (together with any other
deferred compensation benefits that are required to be aggregated with the LRP
Benefit under Section 409A) is equal to or less than $15,000 at any time on or
after such Separation from Service, the Participant’s Vested LRP Account shall
be distributed in a single lump sum payment as of the last day of the calendar
quarter on or immediately following the Participant’s Separation from Service
(or on or immediately following such later date that this subsection is
determined to apply).  However, if the Participant is classified as a Key
Employee at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service (or at such
other time for determining Key Employee status as may apply under Section 409A),
then such Participant’s Vested LRP Account shall be paid as of the last day of
the calendar quarter on or immediately following the date that is 6 months after
the Participant’s Separation from Service.

 
26

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

 

(f)           Actual Payment Date.  An amount payable on a date specified in
this Section shall be paid no later than the later of (a) the end of the

third calendar month following such specified date.  In addition, the
Participant (or Beneficiary) is not permitted to designate the taxable year of
the payment.

5.04           Valuation.
 
In determining the amount of any individual distribution pursuant to Section
5.03, the Participant's LRP Account shall continue to be credited with earnings
(whether positive or negative) as specified in Section 5.01(d) until the
Valuation Date that is used in determining the amount of the distribution under
Section 5.03.  The Valuation Date to be used in valuing a distribution under
Section 5.03 shall be the Valuation Date that occurs on the last day of the
calendar quarter on which the payment is to be made.

5.05           FICA Taxes and LRP Account Reduction.
 
(a)           Calculation of FICA Taxes.  For each Plan Year in which a
Participant’s Account (or portion of the Account) vests pursuant to Section 5.02
or the Appendix, the Company shall calculate the applicable FICA taxes that are
due and shall pay such FICA taxes to the applicable tax authorities as provided
by Treasury Regulation Section 31.3121(v)(2)-1.  The amount of the applicable
FICA taxes that are the responsibility of the Participant pursuant to Code
Section 3101 shall be paid from the Participant’s LRP Account as provided in
Subsection (b).

(b)           Reduction in LRP Account Balance.  Effective as of each Allocation
Date in a Plan Year for which FICA taxes are paid for a Participant pursuant to
Subsection (a), the Company shall withhold such FICA taxes from the
Participant’s LRP Account and reduce the Participant’s LRP Account balance by
the following amount –

(1)           The amount of the applicable FICA taxes calculated by the Company
that are the responsibility of the Participant pursuant to Code Section 3101
(the “FICA Amount”), plus

(2)           The amount of Federal, state and local income taxes that are due
on the distribution of the FICA Amount from the Participant’s LRP Account, which
net of its own Federal, state and local income taxes, is sufficient to enable
the Company to pay the full FICA Amount from the Participant’s LRP Account to
the applicable tax authorities.

The amount calculated pursuant to this Subsection shall be final and binding on
the Participant and shall reduce the Participant’s LRP Account effective as of
each applicable Allocation Date for which a FICA Amount is paid.

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

 

ARTICLE VI – PLAN ADMINISTRATION
 
6.01           Plan Administrator.
 
The Plan Administrator is responsible for the administration of the Plan.  The
Plan Administrator has the authority to name one or more delegates to carry out
certain responsibilities hereunder, as specified in the definition of Plan
Administrator.  Action by the Plan Administrator may be taken in accordance with
procedures that the Plan Administrator adopts from time to time or that the
Company’s Law Department determines are legally permissible.

6.02           Powers of the Plan Administrator.
 
The Plan Administrator shall administer and manage the Plan and shall have (and
shall be permitted to delegate) all powers necessary to accomplish that purpose,
including the power:

(a)           To exercise its discretionary authority to construe, interpret,
and administer this Plan;

(b)           To exercise its discretionary authority to make all decisions
regarding eligibility, participation and benefits, to make allocations and
determinations required by this Plan, and to maintain records regarding
Participants’ LRP Accounts;

(c)           To compute and certify to the Employer the amount and kinds of
payments to Participants or their Beneficiaries, and to determine the time and
manner in which such payments are to be paid;

(d)           To authorize all disbursements by the Employer pursuant to this
Plan;

(e)           To maintain (or cause to be maintained) all the necessary records
for administration of this Plan;

(f)           To make and publish such rules for the regulation of this Plan as
are not inconsistent with the terms hereof;

(g)           To delegate to other individuals or entities from time to time the
performance of any of its duties or responsibilities hereunder;

(h)           To hire agents, accountants, actuaries, consultants and legal
counsel to assist in operating and administering the Plan; and

(i)           To perform any other acts or make any other decisions with respect
to the Plan as it deems are appropriate or necessary.

 
28

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

 

The Plan Administrator has the exclusive and discretionary authority to construe
and to interpret the Plan, to decide all questions of eligibility for benefits,
to determine the amount and manner of payment of such benefits and to make any
determinations that are contemplated by (or permissible under) the terms of this
Plan, and its decisions on such matters shall be final and conclusive on all
parties.  Any such decision or determination shall be made in the absolute and
unrestricted discretion of the Plan Administrator, even if (1) such discretion
is not expressly granted by the Plan provisions in question, or (2) a
determination is not expressly called for by the Plan provisions in question,
and even though other Plan provisions expressly grant discretion or call for a
determination.  As a result, benefits under this Plan will be paid only if the
Plan Administrator decides in its discretion that the applicant is entitled to
them.  In the event of a review by a court, arbitrator or any other tribunal,
any exercise of the Plan Administrator’s discretionary authority shall not be
disturbed unless it is clearly shown to be arbitrary and capricious.

6.03           Compensation, Indemnity and Liability.
 
The Plan Administrator shall serve without bond and without compensation for
services hereunder.  All expenses of the Plan and the Plan Administrator shall
be paid by the Employer.  To the extent deemed appropriate by the Plan
Administrator, any such expense may be charged against specific Participant LRP
Accounts, thereby reducing the obligation of the Employer.  No member of the
Plan Administrator, and no individual acting as the delegate of the Plan
Administrator, shall be liable for any act or omission of any other member or
individual, nor for any act or omission on his own part, excepting his own
willful misconduct.  The Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless each member
of the Plan Administrator and any employee of the Company (or a Company
affiliate, if recognized as an affiliate for this purpose by the Plan
Administrator) acting as the delegate of the Plan Administrator against any and
all expenses and liabilities, including reasonable legal fees and expenses,
arising out of his service as the Plan Administrator (or his serving as the
delegate of the Plan Administrator), excepting only expenses and liabilities
arising out of his own willful misconduct.

6.04           Taxes.
 
If the whole or any part of any Participant’ s LRP Account becomes liable for
the payment of any estate, inheritance, income, employment, or other tax which
the Company may be required to pay or withhold, the Company will have the full
power and authority to withhold and pay such tax out of any moneys or other
property in its hand for the account of the Participant.  If such withholding is
made from a Participant’s Plan distribution (or the Participant’s LRP Account),
the amount of such withholding will reduce the amount of the Plan distribution
(or the Participant’s LRP Account).  To the extent practicable, the Company will
provide the Participant notice of such withholding.  Prior to making any
payment, the Company may require such releases or other documents from any
lawful taxing authority as it shall deem necessary.  In addition, to the extent
required by Section 409A amounts deferred under this Plan shall be reported on
the Participants’ Forms W-2.  Also, any amounts that become taxable hereunder
shall be reported as taxable wages on a Participant’s Form W-2.

 
29

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

 

6.05           Records and Reports.
 
The Plan Administrator shall exercise such authority and responsibility as it
deems appropriate in order to comply with ERISA and government regulations
issued thereunder relating to records of Participants’ service and benefits,
notifications to Participants; reports to, or registration with, the Internal
Revenue Service; reports to the Department of Labor; and such other documents
and reports as may be required by ERISA.

6.06           Rules and Procedures.
 
The Plan Administrator may adopt such rules and procedures as it deems
necessary, desirable, or appropriate.  To the extent practicable and as of any
time, all rules and procedures of the Plan Administrator shall be uniformly and
consistently applied to Participants in the same circumstances.  When making a
determination or calculation, the Plan Administrator shall be entitled to rely
upon information furnished by a Participant or Beneficiary and the legal counsel
of the Plan Administrator or the Company.

6.07           Applications and Forms.
 
The Plan Administrator may require a Participant or Beneficiary to complete and
file with the Plan Administrator an application for a distribution and any other
forms (or other methods for receiving information) approved by the Plan
Administrator, and to furnish all pertinent information requested by the Plan
Administrator.  The Plan Administrator may rely upon all such information so
furnished it, including the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s current mailing
address, age and marital status.

6.08           Conformance with Section 409A.
 
At all times during each Plan Year, this Plan shall be operated (i) in
accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, and (ii) to preserve the
status of benefits under the Pre-409A Program as being exempt from Section 409A,
i.e., to preserve the grandfathered status of the Pre-409A Program.  In all
cases, the provisions of this Section shall apply notwithstanding any contrary
provision of the Plan that is not contained in this Section.

 
30

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

 

ARTICLE VII – CLAIMS PROCEDURES
 
7.01           Claims for Benefits.
 
If a Participant, Beneficiary or other person (hereafter, “Claimant”) does not
receive timely payment of any benefits which he believes are due and payable
under the Plan, he may make a claim for benefits to the Plan Administrator.  The
claim for benefits must be in writing and addressed to the Plan
Administrator.  If the claim for benefits is denied, the Plan Administrator
shall notify the Claimant in writing within 90 days after the Plan Administrator
initially received the benefit claim.  However, if special circumstances require
an extension of time for processing the claim, the Plan Administrator shall
furnish notice of the extension to the Claimant prior to the termination of the
initial 90-day period and such extension may not exceed one additional,
consecutive 90-day period.  Any notice of extension shall indicate the reasons
for the extension and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to make a
determination.  Any notice of a denial of benefits shall be in writing and
drafted in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and shall advise
the Claimant of the basis for the denial, any additional material or information
necessary for the Claimant to perfect his claim, and the steps which the
Claimant must take to have his claim for benefits reviewed on appeal.

7.02           Appeals.
 
Each Claimant whose claim for benefits has been denied may file a written
request for a review of his claim by the Plan Administrator.  The request for
review must be filed by the Claimant within 60 days after he received the
written notice denying his claim.  Upon review, the Plan Administrator shall
provide the Claimant a full and fair review of the claim, including the
opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records and other information
relevant to the claim and the Plan Administrator's review shall take into
account such comments, documents, records and information regardless of whether
they were submitted or considered at the initial determination.  The decision of
the Plan Administrator shall be made within 60 days after receipt of a request
for review and will be communicated in writing and in a manner calculated to be
understood by the Claimant.  Such written notice shall set forth the basis for
the Plan Administrator's decision.  If there are special circumstances which
require an extension of time for completing the review, the Plan Administrator
shall furnish notice of the extension to the Claimant prior to the termination
of the initial 60-day period and such extension may not exceed one additional,
consecutive 60-day period.  Any notice of extension shall indicate the reasons
for the extension and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to make a
determination.

7.03           Special Claims Procedures for Disability Determinations.
 
Notwithstanding Sections 7.01 and 7.02, if the claim or appeal of the Claimant
relates to benefits while a Participant is disabled, such claim or appeal shall
be processed pursuant to the applicable provisions of Department of Labor
Regulation Section 2560.503-1 relating to disability benefits, including
Sections 2560.503-1(d), 2560.503-1(f)(3), 2560.503-1(h)(4) and
2560.503-1(i)(3).  These provisions include the following:

 
31

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

 

(a)           If the Plan Administrator wholly or partially denies a Claimant’s
claim for disability benefits, the Plan Administrator shall provide the
Claimant, within a 45-day response period following the receipt of the claim by
the Plan Administrator, a comprehensible written notice setting forth (1) the
basis for the denial, (2) any additional material or information necessary for
the Claimant to perfect his claim, and (3) the steps which the Claimant must
take to have his claim for benefits reviewed on appeal.  If, for reasons beyond
the control of the Plan Administrator, an extension of time is required for
processing the claim, the Plan Administrator will send a written notice of the
extension, an explanation of the circumstances requiring extension and the
expected date of the decision before the end of the 45-day period.  The Plan
Administrator may only extend the 45-day period twice, each in 30-day
increments.  If at any time the Plan Administrator requires additional
information in order to determine the claim, the Plan Administrator shall send a
written notice explaining the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the
claim and a listing of the additional information needed to resolve those
issues.  The Claimant will have 45 days from the receipt of that notice to
provide the additional information, and during the time that a request for
information is outstanding, the running of the time period in which the Plan
Administrator must decide the claim will be suspended.

(b)           If the Plan Administrator denies all or part of a claim, further
review of the claim is available upon written request by the Claimant to the
Plan Administrator within 180 days after receipt by the Claimant of written
notice of the denial.  Upon review, the Plan Administrator shall provide the
Claimant a full and fair review of the claim, including the opportunity to
submit written comments, documents, records and other information relevant to
the claim and the Plan Administrator’s review shall take into account such
comments, documents, records and information regardless of whether it was
submitted or considered at the initial determination.  The decision on review
shall be made within 45 days after receipt of the request for review, unless
circumstances beyond the control of the Plan Administrator warrant an extension
of time not to exceed an additional 45 days.  If this occurs, written notice of
the extension will be furnished to the Claimant before the end of the initial
45-day period, indicating the special circumstances requiring the extension and
the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to make the final
decision.  The final decision shall be in writing and drafted in a manner
calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and shall include the specific
reasons for the decision with references to the specific Plan provisions on
which the decision is based.

7.04           Exhaustion of Claims Procedures.
 
Before filing any claim or action in court or in another tribunal, the
Executive, former Executive, Participant, former Participant, Spouse, former
Spouse or other individual, person, entity, representative, or group of one or
more of the foregoing (collectively, a “Claimant”) must first fully exhaust all
of the Claimant’s actual or potential rights under the claims procedures of
Sections 7.01, 7.02 and 7.03, including such rights as the Plan Administrator
may choose to provide in connection with novel claims, disputes or issues or in
particular situations.  For purposes of the prior sentence, any Claimant that
has any claim, dispute, issue or matter that implicates in whole or in part –

 
32

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

 

(a)           The interpretation of the Plan,

(b)           The interpretation of any term or condition of the Plan,

(c)           The interpretation of the Plan (or any of its terms or conditions)
in light of applicable law,

(d)           Whether the Plan or any term or condition under the Plan has been
validly adopted or put into effect,

(e)           Whether the Plan or any term or condition under the Plan satisfies
any applicable law, or

(f)           Any claim, issue or matter deemed similar to any of the foregoing
by the Plan Administrator

(or two or more of these) shall not be considered to have satisfied the
exhaustion requirement of this Section unless the Claimant first submits the
claim, dispute, issue or matter to the Plan Administrator to be processed
pursuant to the claims procedures of Sections 7.01, 7.02 and 7.03 or to be
otherwise considered by the Plan Administrator, and regardless of whether
claims, disputes, issues or matters that are not listed above are of greater
significance or relevance.  The exhaustion requirement of this Section shall
apply even if the Plan Administrator has not previously defined or established
specific claims procedures that directly apply to the submission and
consideration of such claim, dispute, issue or matter, and in which case the
Plan Administrator (upon notice of the claim, dispute, issue or matter) shall
either promptly establish such claims procedures or shall apply (or act by
analogy to) the claims procedures of Sections 7.01, 7.02 and 7.03 that apply to
claims for benefits.  Upon review by any court or other tribunal, this
exhaustion requirement is intended to be interpreted to require exhaustion in as
many circumstances as possible (and any steps necessary to effect this intent
should be taken).

7.05           Limitations on Actions.
 
Effective from and after January 1, 2008, any claim or action filed in state or
Federal court (or any other tribunal) by or on behalf of a Claimant (as defined
in Section 7.04) with respect to this Plan must be brought within the applicable
timeframe that relates to the claim or action, listed as follows:

(a)           Any claim or action relating to the alleged wrongful denial of
Plan benefits must be brought within two years of the earlier of the date that
the Claimant received the payment of the Plan benefits that are the subject of
the claim or action or the date that the Claimant has received his calculation
of Plan benefits that are the subject of the claim or action; and

 
33

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

 

(b)           Any other claim or action not covered by subsection (a) above
(including a claim or action relating to an alleged interference or violation of
ERISA-protected rights), must be brought within two years of the date when the
Claimant has actual or constructive knowledge of the acts that are alleged to
give rise to the claim or action.

Failure to bring any such claim or action within the aforementioned timeframes
shall mean that such claim or action is null and void and of no
effect.  Correspondence or other communications (including the mandatory claims
procedures in this Article VII) by the Company, an Employer, the Plan
Administrator or any other person or entity related or affiliated with the YUM!
Organization shall have no effect on the above timeframes.

 
34

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

 

ARTICLE VIII – AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
 
8.01           Amendment to the Plan.
 
The Company, or its delegate, has the right in its sole discretion to amend this
Plan in whole or in part at any time and in any manner, including the terms and
conditions of LRP Benefits, the terms on which distributions are made, and the
form and timing of distributions.  However, except for mere clarifying
amendments necessary to avoid an inappropriate windfall, no Plan amendment shall
reduce the balance of a Participant’s Vested LRP Account as of the date such
amendment is adopted.  In addition, the Company shall have the limited right to
amend the Plan at any time, retroactively or otherwise, in such respects and to
such extent as may be necessary to fully qualify it under existing and
applicable laws and regulations, and if and to the extent necessary to
accomplish such purpose, may by such amendment decrease or otherwise affect
benefits to which Participants may have already become entitled, notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary.

The Company’s right to amend the Plan shall not be affected or limited in any
way by a Participant’s Retirement or other Separation from Service.  In
addition, the Company’s right to amend the Plan shall not be affected or limited
in any way by a Participant’s death or Disability.  Prior practices by the
Company or an Employer shall not diminish in any way the rights granted the
Company under this Section.  Also, it is expressly permissible for an amendment
to affect less than all of the Participants covered by the Plan.

Any amendment shall be in writing and adopted by the Company or by any officer
of the Company who has authority or who has been granted or delegated the
authority to amend this Plan.  An amendment or restatement of this Plan shall
not affect the validity or scope of any grant or delegation of such authority,
which shall instead be solely determined based upon the terms of the grant or
delegation (as determined under applicable law).  All Participants and
Beneficiaries shall be bound by such amendment.

Any amendments made to the Plan shall be subject to any restrictions on
amendment that are applicable to ensure continued compliance under Section 409A.

8.02           Termination of the Plan.
 
The Company expects to continue this Plan, but does not obligate itself to do
so.  The Company reserves the right to discontinue and terminate the Plan at any
time, in whole or in part, for any reason (including a change, or an impending
change, in the tax laws of the United States or any state).  Such termination
shall be in writing and adopted by the Company or by any officer of the Company
who has authority or who has been granted or delegated the authority to
terminate this Plan.  An amendment or restatement of this Plan shall not affect
the validity or scope of any grant or delegation of such authority, which shall
instead be solely determined based upon the terms of the grant or delegation (as
determined under applicable law).

 
35

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

 

Termination of the Plan shall be binding on all Participants (and a partial
termination shall be binding upon all affected Participants), but in no event
may such termination reduce the balance of a Participant’s Vested LRP Account at
the time of the termination.  If this Plan is terminated (in whole or in part),
the affected Participants’ Vested LRP Accounts may either be paid in a single
lump sum immediately, or distributed in some other manner consistent with this
Plan, as provided by the Plan termination resolution.  The Company’s rights
under this Section shall be no less than its rights under Section 8.01.  Thus,
for example, the Company may amend the Plan pursuant to the third sentence of
Section 8.01 in conjunction with the termination of the Plan, and such amendment
will not violate the prohibition on reducing a Participant’s Vested LRP Account
under this Section 8.02.  This Section is subject to the same restrictions
related to compliance with Section 409A that apply to Section 8.01.

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

 

ARTICLE IX – MISCELLANEOUS
 
9.01           Limitation on Participant Rights.
 
Participation in this Plan does not give any Participant the right to be
retained in the Employer's or Company's employ (or any right or interest in this
Plan or any assets of the Company or Employer other than as herein
provided).  The Company and Employer reserve the right to terminate the
employment of any Participant without any liability for any claim against the
Company or Employer under this Plan, except for a claim for payment of benefits
as provided herein.

9.02           Unfunded Obligation of Individual Employer.
 
The benefits provided by this Plan are unfunded.  All amounts payable under this
Plan to Participants are paid from the general assets of the Participant’s
individual Employer.  Nothing contained in this Plan requires the Company or
Employer to set aside or hold in trust any amounts or assets for the purpose of
paying benefits to Participants.  Neither a Participant, Beneficiary, nor any
other person shall have any property interest, legal or equitable, in any
specific Employer asset.  This Plan creates only a contractual obligation on the
part of a Participant’s individual Employer, and the Participant has the status
of a general unsecured creditor of his Employer with respect to benefits granted
hereunder.  Such a Participant shall not have any preference or priority over,
the rights of any other unsecured general creditor of the Employer.  No other
Employer guarantees or shares such obligation, and no other Employer shall have
any liability to the Participant or his Beneficiary.  In the event a Participant
transfers from the employment of one Employer to another, the former Employer
shall transfer the liability for benefits made while the Participant was
employed by that Employer to the new Employer (and the books of both Employers
shall be adjusted appropriately).

9.03           Other Benefit Plans.
 
This Plan shall not affect the right of any Eligible Executive or Participant to
participate in and receive benefits under and in accordance with the provisions
of any other employee benefit plans which are now or hereafter maintained by any
Employer, unless the terms of such other employee benefit plan or plans
specifically provide otherwise or it would cause such other plan to violate a
requirement for tax-favored treatment.

9.04           Receipt or Release.
 
Any payment to a Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of
this Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims
against the Plan Administrator, the Employer and the Company, and the Plan
Administrator may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition
precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect.

 
37

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

 

9.05           Governing Law.
 
This Plan shall be construed, administered, and governed in all respects in
accordance with ERISA and, to the extent not preempted by ERISA, in accordance
with the laws of the State of Kentucky.  If any provisions of this instrument
shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully
effective.

9.06           Adoption of Plan by Related Employers.
 
The Plan Administrator may select as an Employer any division of the Company, as
well as any member of the YUM! Organization, and permit or cause such division
or organization to adopt the Plan.  The selection by the Plan Administrator
shall govern the effective date of the adoption of the Plan by such related
Employer.  The requirements for Plan adoption are entirely within the discretion
of the Plan Administrator and, in any case where the status of an entity as an
Employer is at issue, the determination of the Plan Administrator shall be
absolutely conclusive.

9.07           Rules of Construction.
 
The provisions of this Plan shall be construed according to the following rules:

(a)           Gender and Number.  Whenever the context so indicates, the
singular or plural number and the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender shall be
deemed to include the other.

(b)           Examples.  Whenever an example is provided or the text uses the
term “including” followed by a specific item or items, or there is a passage
having a similar effect, such passage of the Plan shall be construed as if the
phrase “without limitation” followed such example or term (or otherwise applied
to such passage in a manner that avoids limitation on its breadth of
application).

(c)           Compounds of the Word “Here”.  The words "hereof", “herein”,
"hereunder" and other similar compounds of the word "here" shall mean and refer
to the entire Plan, not to any particular provision or section.

(d)           Effect of Specific References.  Specific references in the Plan to
the Plan Administrator’s discretion shall create no inference that the Plan
Administrator’s discretion in any other respect, or in connection with any other
provisions, is less complete or broad.

(e)           Subdivisions of the Plan Document.  This Plan document is divided
and subdivided using the following progression: articles, sections, subsections,
paragraphs, subparagraphs and clauses.  Articles are designated by capital roman
numerals.  Sections are designated by Arabic numerals containing a decimal
point.  Subsections are designated by lower-case letters in
parentheses.  Paragraphs are designated by Arabic numbers in
parentheses.  Subparagraphs are designated by lower-case roman numerals in
parenthesis.  Clauses are designated by upper-case letters in parentheses.  Any
reference in a section to a subsection (with no accompanying section reference)
shall be read as a reference to the subsection with the specified designation
contained in that same section.  A similar reading shall apply with respect to
paragraph references within a subsection and subparagraph references within a
paragraph.

 
38

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

 

(f)           Invalid Provisions.  If any provision of this Plan is, or is
hereafter declared to be void, voidable, invalid or otherwise unlawful, the
remainder of the Plan shall not be affected thereby.

9.08           Successors and Assigns; Nonalienation of Benefits.
 
This Plan inures to the benefit of and is binding upon the parties hereto and
their successors, heirs and assigns; provided, however, that the amounts
credited to the LRP Account of a Participant are not (except as provided in
Sections 5.05 and 6.04) subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale,
transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution or
levy of any kind, either voluntary or involuntary, and any attempt to
anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, charge or
otherwise dispose of any right to any benefits payable hereunder, including,
without limitation, any assignment or alienation in connection with a
separation, divorce, child support or similar arrangement, will be null and void
and not binding on the Plan or the Company or any Employer.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Plan Administrator reserves the right to make payments in
accordance with a divorce decree, judgment or other court order as and when cash
payments are made in accordance with the terms of this Plan from the Vested LRP
Account of a Participant.  Any such payment shall be charged against and reduce
the Participant’s Account.

9.09           Facility of Payment.
 
Whenever, in the Plan Administrator's opinion, a Participant or Beneficiary
entitled to receive any payment hereunder is under a legal disability or is
incapacitated in any way so as to be unable to manage his financial affairs, the
Plan Administrator may direct the Employer to make payments to such person or to
the legal representative of such person for his benefit, or to apply the payment
for the benefit of such person in such manner as the Plan Administrator
considers advisable.  Any payment in accordance with the provisions of this
Section shall be a complete discharge of any liability for the making of such
payment to the Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan.

APPENDIX
 

This Appendix modifies particular terms of this Plan document as it may apply to
certain groups and situations.  Except as specifically modified in this
Appendix, the foregoing main provisions of this Plan document shall fully apply
in determining the rights and benefits of Participants.  In the event of a
conflict between this Appendix and the foregoing main provisions of this Plan
document, the Appendix shall govern.

 
41

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

 

APPENDIX ARTICLE A – LRP BENEFITS FOR CERTAIN PARTICIPANTS
 

A.01           Scope.
 
This Article A provides special rules that relate to certain Participants in the
Plan.  This Article A applies only to the following Class I Appendix
Participants and Class II Appendix Participants listed as follows –

(a)           Class I Appendix Participants are Scott Bergren, Clyde Leff, Micky
Pant, Robert Lauber, Michael Liewen and effective as of May 7, 2007, Albert
Baladi; and

(b)           Class II Appendix Participants are Brian Niccol, Angelia Pelham,
Misty Reich, Patrick Grismer, Douglas Hasselo and William Pearce.

A.02           Allocation Date for Class I Appendix Participants.
 
(a)           From and After January 1, 2007.  Beginning from and after January
1, 2007, the Allocation Date listed in Article II shall apply to each Class I
Appendix Participant.

(b)           Plan Years Prior to January 1, 2007.  Except as provided in
Subsection (c) below, for Plan Years prior to January 1, 2007, the Allocation
Date for a Class I Appendix Participant shall be each anniversary of a Class I
Appendix Participant’s date of hire by his Employer beginning with the first
anniversary that is one (1) year after his date of hire.  A Class I Appendix
Participant shall also have an Allocation Date on his Termination Date.

(c)           Transition Rules for 2006.  For the 2006 Plan Year, each Class I
Appendix Participant shall have two (2) Allocation Dates during the 2006 Plan
Year.  The first Allocation Date shall be as provided in Subsection (b)
above.  The second Allocation Date shall be as of the last business day of the
2006 Plan Year.  In determining the Employer Credit amount for each Allocation
Date during 2006, the Plan Administrator shall use the Class I Appendix
Participant’s annualized Base Compensation in effect on each Allocation Date
(and shall not prorate the compensation if the Class I Appendix Participant
received an increase in Base Compensation during the applicable period).  In
addition, for the second Allocation Date (which shall be on the last business
day of the 2006 Plan Year) the Class I Appendix Participant’s Base Compensation
that shall be used shall be equal to the Class I Appendix Participant’s
annualized Base Compensation in effect on the second Allocation Date multiplied
by the Class I Appendix Participant’s fractional Year of Participation earned
from the period beginning from the first Allocation Date and ending on the
second Allocation Date.

A.03           Employer Credit for Class I Appendix Participants.
 
(a)           Employer Credit Percentage.  In lieu of the Employer Credit
Percentage under Section 5.01(b), a Class I Appendix Participant’s Employer
Credit Percentage (and his “Maximum Years of Employer Credits” in Subsection
(b)(2)(vi) below) shall be equal to the following –

Class I Appendix Participant
 
Employer Credit Percentage
Maximum Years of
 Employer Credits
 
Albert Baladi
21.5%
No maximum
Scott Bergren
28%
No maximum
Clyde Leff
20%
9
Micky Pant
20%
No maximum
Robert Lauber
16%
20
Michael Liewen
20%
12

 
42

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

 

 
The Employer Credit Percentage listed above shall remain the same during the
Class I Appendix Participant’s participation in the Plan and shall not change
due to a change in his employment level or age.

(b)           Employer Credit Amount.

(1)           General Rule.  In lieu of the provisions under Section 5.01(c), a
Class I Appendix Participant’s Employer Credit shall be determined by the Plan
Administrator by converting the Employer Credit Percentage into a dollar amount
by multiplying the Employer Credit Percentage by the Class I Appendix
Participant’s Base Compensation (as modified in paragraph (2) below), thereafter
crediting the resulting product to the Class I Appendix Participant’s LRP
Account.  However, notwithstanding the foregoing, effective from and after
January 1, 2008 the Employer Credit for Scott Bergren, Mickey Pant and Albert
Baladi shall be determined by multiplying their respective Employer Credit
Percentages by their Base Compensation and Bonus Compensation (as modified in
paragraph (2) below), and thereafter crediting the resulting product to their
respective LRP Accounts.  The Employer Credit shall be determined by the Plan
Administrator as soon as administratively practicable after each Allocation Date
and shall be credited to the Class I Appendix Participant’s LRP Account
effective as of the Allocation Date.  The calculation of the Employer Credit by
the Plan Administrator shall be conclusive and binding on all Class I Appendix
Participants (and their Beneficiaries).

(2)           Operating Rules.  The following operating rules shall apply for
purposes of determining a Class I Appendix Participant’s Employer Credit under
this Subsection (b):

(i)           The Plan Administrator shall use the Class I Appendix
Participant’s annualized Base Compensation in effect on the Allocation Date (and
shall not prorate the compensation if the Class I Appendix Participant received
an increase in Base Compensation during the applicable period).

 
43

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

 

(ii)           If a Class I Appendix Participant has less than one (1) Year of
Participation measured from the last Allocation Date for which the Class I
Appendix Participant received an Employer Credit to the current Allocation Date
(e.g., as may apply upon the Class I Appendix Participant’s Termination Date),
the Class I Appendix Participant’s Base Compensation that shall be used shall be
equal to the Class I Appendix Participant’s annualized Base Compensation
multiplied by the Class I Appendix Participant’s fractional Year of
Participation for such period.

(iii)           If applicable, the transition rules in Section A.02 for the 2006
Plan Year shall apply.

(iv)           The rules of Section 5.01(c)(2)(iii) shall apply (i.e., the rules
on Employer Credits during an Authorized Leave of Absence); provided, however,
an Employer Credit for a Class I Appendix Participant shall only be based on his
Base Compensation (or his Base Compensation and Bonus Compensation for Scott
Bergren, Mickey Pant and Albert Baladi).

(v)           Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or the Appendix to the
contrary, a Class I Appendix Participant shall not receive an Employer Credit
using his applicable Bonus Compensation; provided however this subparagraph
shall not apply to Scott Bergren, Mickey Pant and Albert Baladi.

(vi)           A Class I Appendix Participant shall not receive an Employer
Credit under the Plan after the Class I Appendix Participant’s LRP Account has
been credited with the “Maximum Years of Employer Credits” listed in the chart
in Subsection (a) above (i.e., after the applicable number of full Years of
Participation as an active Participant in the Plan).  For this purpose, all of a
Class I Appendix Participant’s Years of Participation shall be counted
(including Years of Participation before a break in service), and fractional
Years of Participation shall be aggregated into full Years of
Participation.  However, if a Class I Appendix Participant has “no maximum”
listed in the chart in Subsection (a) above, then the provisions of this
subparagraph shall not apply to such Class I Appendix Participant.

A.04           Special Interim Earnings Rate for Class I Appendix Participants.
 
Notwithstanding Section 2.11(b), the Earnings Rate for Class I Appendix
Participants for the period prior to January 1, 2007 shall be the Earnings Rate
provided in Section 2.11(a) (i.e., 6% per annum).  Beginning from and after
January 1, 2007, the Earnings Rate for Class I Appendix Participants shall be as
provided in Section 2.11(b) (i.e., 5% per annum), subject to adjustment in
Section 5.01(d).

 
44

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

 

A.05           Vesting for Class I Appendix Participants.
 
In lieu of Section 5.02(b), a Class I Appendix Participant’s LRP Account shall
become vested and nonforfeitable as follows:

(a)           For Scott Bergren, his LRP Account shall become vested and
nonforfeitable as follows:

Years of Service
 
Vested Percentage
1
0%
2
25%
3
50%
4
75%
5
100%

(b)           For all Class I Appendix Participants other than Scott Bergren,
their LRP Accounts shall become 100% vested and nonforfeitable after five (5)
Years of Service.

(c)           Effective January 1, 2008, all Class I Appendix Participants shall
become 100% vested in his LRP Account upon attaining three (3) Years of
Service.  For purposes of Class I Appendix Participants in this Plan as of
December 31, 2007, this paragraph shall apply to all existing LRP Account
balances as of January 1, 2008 based on the Class I Appendix Participant’s Years
of Service earned both before and after January 1, 2008.

A.06           Initial Eligibility Date for Class II Appendix Participants.
 
Each Class II Appendix Participant’s initial eligibility date under Section
3.02(b) shall be July 1, 2006.

A.07           Employer Credit Percentage for Class II Appendix Participants.
 
In lieu of the Employer Credit Percentage under Section 5.01(b), a Class II
Appendix Participant’s Employer Credit Percentage shall be equal to the
following –

Class II Appendix Participant Level as of
 Allocation Date
 
Employer Credit Percentage
Level 14
7.0%
Level 15
8.0%
Level 16
9.0%
Leadership Team (LT)
9.5%
Partner Counsel (PC)
11.5%

 
45

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

 

The Employer Credit Percentage listed above shall be used for all Allocation
Dates for a Class II Appendix Participant that occur while the Class II Appendix
Participant is earning Years of Service under the Plan that is prior to a break
in service.  The Class II Appendix Participant shall be assigned the
corresponding Employer Credit Percentage for a Plan Year based upon his level
status as of the Allocation Date, regardless of whether the Class II Appendix
Participant was at that level for the entire Plan Year.  The amount of the
Employer Credit shall then be calculated under the provisions of Section
5.01(c).
