PREAMBLE

Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. (“Ralcorp”) maintained the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc.
Supplemental Retirement Plan (the “Ralcorp Plan”). Ralcorp intends to distribute
on a pro rata basis to the holders of Ralcorp common stock at least 80% of the
outstanding shares of Post Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) common stock owned by
Ralcorp (“Spin-Off”). The Company hereby adopts the Post Holdings, Inc. Plan

for benefits unpaid with respect to all such transferred benefits.

The Plan as set out herein is intended to meet the requirements of section 409A
of the Code for deferrals after December 31, 2004. The Plan is not intended to

1.12 “RETIREMENT” means Separation from Service on or after becoming eligible to
receive benefits pursuant to an election under the Retirement Plan.

1.13 “RETIREMENT PLAN” means the Post Holdings, Inc. Retirement Plan or any
successor plan.

1.14 “SECTION 415 LIMITATION” means the limitation, imposed by section 415 of
the Code, on the amount of retirement benefits payable from a qualified
retirement plan to a participant in such plan.

1.15 “SEPARATION FROM SERVICE” means the date an Employee separates from service
within the meaning of Code section 409A. Generally, an Employee separates from
service if the Employee dies, retires, or otherwise has a termination of
employment with the Company, determined in accordance with the following:

(a) Leaves of Absence. The employment relationship is treated as continuing
intact while the Employee is on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide
leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months, or,
if longer, so long as the Employee retains a right to reemployment with the
Company under an applicable statute or by contract. A leave of absence
constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable
expectation that the Employee will return to perform services for the Company.
If the period of leave exceeds six (6) months and the Employee does not retain a
right to reemployment under an applicable statute or by contract, the employment
relationship is deemed to terminate on the first date immediately following such
six (6)-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a leave of absence is
due to any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be
expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period
of not less than six (6) months, where such impairment causes the Employee to be
unable to perform the duties of his or her position of employment or any
substantially similar position of employment, a twenty-nine (29)-month period of
absence shall be substituted for such six (6)-month period.

(b) Dual Status. Generally, if an Employee performs services both as an employee
and an independent contractor, such Employee must separate from service both as
an employee, and as an independent contractor pursuant to standards set forth in
Treasury Regulations, to be treated as having a Separation from Service.
However, if an Employee provides services to the Company as an employee and as a
member of the board of directors, and if any plan in which such person
participates as a board member is not aggregated with this Plan pursuant to
Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(c)(2)(ii), then the services provided as a
director are not taken into account in determining whether the Employee has a
Separation from Service as an employee for purposes of this Plan.

 

3

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

(c) Termination of Employment. Whether a termination of employment has occurred
is determined on whether the facts an circumstances indicate that the Company
and the Employee reasonably anticipated that no further services would be
performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services the
Employee would perform after such date (whether as an employee or as an
independent contractor, except as provided in section 1.14(b) would permanently
decrease to no more than twenty (20) percent of the average level of bona fide
services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor, except
as provided in section 1.14(b) over the immediately preceding thirty-six
(36)-month period (or the full period of services to the Company if the Employee
has been providing services to the Company less than thirty-six (36) months).
For periods during which an Employee is on a paid bona fide leave of absence and
has not otherwise terminated employment as described above, for purposes of this
paragraph (c), the Employee is treated as providing bona fide services at a
level equal to the level of services that the Employee would have been required
to perform to receive the compensation paid with respect to such leave of
absence. Periods during which an Employee is on an unpaid bona fide leave of
absence and has not otherwise terminated employment are disregarded for purposes
of this section (c) (including for purposes of determining the applicable
thirty-six (36)-month (or shorter) period). For the avoidance of doubt, no
Employee shall be treated as incurring a Separation from Service, termination of
employment, retirement, or other similar event for purposes of determining the
right to distribution, vesting, benefits, or any other purpose under the Plan as
a result of the Spin-Off.

(d) Service with Related Companies. For purposes of determining whether a
Separation from Service has occurred, the “Company” shall include the Company or
an Affiliated Company, as applicable, and any other entity that is aggregated
with the Company or such Affiliated Company pursuant to Code section 414(b) or
(c).

1.16 “SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT AWARD” (“SRA”) means a retirement benefit awarded
pursuant to Article Four of the Plan.

1.17 “SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT BENEFITS” means benefits payable pursuant to
Article Three of the Plan.

ARTICLE II

ELIGIBILITY

2.1 SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT BENEFITS. Any Employee who is designated by the
Committee as eligible shall be eligible to accrue Supplemental Retirement
Benefits as described in Article Three in the event that such Employee’s
retirement benefits accrued pursuant to the Retirement Plan are less than they
would be due to the following factors:

 

4

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

(a) the Employee’s making a Deferral of Compensation

(b) the Section 415 Limitation; and/or

(c) the Compensation limitations imposed by Code section 401(a)(17).

Such factors shall collectively be known as the Benefit Limitations.

2.2 SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT AWARDS. An Employee designated by the Committee as
eligible shall be eligible for a Supplemental Retirement Award (“SRA”) as
described in Article Four if:

(a) he or she is a Corporate Officer of Post and an SRA for such Employee is
approved by the Committee; or

(b) he or she is not a Corporate Officer of Post and an SRA with a present value
in excess of $200,000 (as determined for pension expense purposes of the
Affiliated Companies) has been approved for such Employee by the Committee; or

(c) he or she is not a Corporate Officer of Post and an SRA with a present value
of $200,000 or less (as determined for pension expense purposes of the
Affiliated Companies) has been approved for such Employee by a Chief Executive
Officer of Post.

2.3 LIMITATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no person shall become
an eligible Employee or otherwise accrue a benefit hereunder after the Spin-Off,
except to the extent determined by the Committee.

ARTICLE III

SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT BENEFITS

3.1 AMOUNT AND FORM OF EMPLOYEE’S BENEFIT. Any Employee who meets the
eligibility requirements of Section 2.1 and is otherwise designated by the
Committee as eligible shall be entitled to receive a Supplemental Retirement
Benefit which shall be equal in value to the additional benefit which such
Employee would have received pursuant to the Retirement Plan with respect to
service performed after the Spin-Off (determined, if Subsection (a) is
applicable, as of the date provided in Subsection (a), regardless of whether
payment of benefits under the Retirement Plan actually begins on such date) but
for the Benefit Limitations. In addition, an Employee whose name is listed on
Appendix B hereto shall be entitled to receive a Supplemental Retirement Benefit
which shall be equal in value to the supplemental retirement benefit determined
with respect to such Employee under the Ralcorp Plan as in effect on the
Spin-Off.

 

5

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

(a) Default Form of Payment. The amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.1
shall be paid monthly beginning on the later of (1) the first day of the month
coinciding with or immediately following the Employee’s Separation from Service,
or (2) the first day of the month nearest the date on which the Employee attains
age 55 (and, if an Employee’s birthday is equally near the first days of two
months, the first day of the month in which such birthday occurs), in the form
of:

(i) if the Employee is unmarried at the time of commencement of payment, a
five-year certain life annuity, under which monthly payments shall be made to
the Employee until his or her death and, if the Employee dies before receiving
60 months payments, monthly payments shall continue after the Employee’s death
to his or her Beneficiary until an aggregate of 60 monthly payments have been
made. If the death of the Employee and the Beneficiary shall both occur before
an aggregate of 60 monthly payments have been made, the commuted value of the
remaining payments shall be paid to the estate of the last to die. If an
Employee dies on a monthly payment date, the payment due shall be paid to the
Beneficiary; or

(ii) if the Employee is married at the time of commencement of payment, a 50%
contingent annuitant life benefit with his or her spouse as contingent
annuitant, under which a reduced amount, determined in accordance with the
applicable factors under the Retirement Plan, shall be paid to the Employee
until the Employee’s death and, if the spouse survives the Employee, monthly
payments equal to 50% of the amount payable to the Employee shall continue to
the spouse until his or her death;

subject to the Employee’s election of a different form of payment in accordance
with (b) below.

(b) Change in Form of Annuity. If an Employee elects a form of payment under the
Retirement Plan that is different from the default form of payment described in
(a) above, payment under this Plan shall be in the same form as the elected form
under the Retirement Plan, provided that:

(i) the elected form of payment is a “life annuity” within the meaning of
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations, or any successor
provision;

(ii) the elected form of life annuity has the same starting payment date as the
default life annuity;

 

6

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

(iii) the elected form of life annuity is actuarially equivalent to the default
life annuity applying reasonable actuarial methods and assumptions; and

(iv) the election is received by the Committee in accordance with Committee
policies and procedures before any annuity payment has been made.

3.2 DEATH BENEFIT. In the event of a married Employee’s death prior to the
commencement of payment under Section 3.1, and provided that such Employee had
been legally and continuously married to his or her spouse for at least one year
on the date of his or her death, such Employee’s surviving spouse shall receive
Supplemental Retirement Benefits equal in amount to the additional monthly
benefit which such spouse would have received from the Retirement Plan but for
the Benefit Limitations. Such Supplemental Retirement Benefits shall be payable
beginning on the first day of the month following the later of the death of the
Employee or the date the Employee would have attained age 55 and shall continue
to the spouse until the first day of the month immediately preceding or
coinciding with the death of the spouse. If the spouse receives monthly benefits
under the Retirement Plan prior to the date the Employee would have attained age
55, Supplemental Retirement Benefits attributable to such monthly benefits shall
be payable on the first day of the month following the date the Employee would
have attained age 55. If an Employee dies prior to the commencement of payment
under Section 3.1 and he or she is not married (or has not been legally and
continuously married for a period of at least one year), then no Supplemental
Retirement Benefits will be paid under the Plan.

3.3 LUMP SUM PAYMENTS. In lieu of monthly installment payments described in
Section 3.1 and 3.2, the Employee (or, in the event of the Employee’s death, his
or her spouse) shall be paid on the sixtieth day after Retirement or the death
of the Employee, as applicable, Supplemental Retirement Benefits in the form of
a single lump-sum distribution equal in amount to the present value of the right
to receive such Supplemental Retirement Benefits on a monthly basis, but only in
the event that such monthly benefit payment is less than $100 and the present
value of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit does not exceed the applicable
dollar amount under Code section 402(g). The present value shall be determined
using the applicable mortality table and applicable interest rate utilized in
the Retirement Plan to determine the present value of lump-sum cash
distributions pursuant to Code section 417.

 

7

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

ARTICLE IV

SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT AWARDS

4.1 AMOUNT AND FORM OF EMPLOYEE’S BENEFIT. An Employee who meets the eligibility
requirements of Section 2.2 and is otherwise designated by the Committee as
eligible shall be entitled to receive an SRA in the amount, if any, approved by
the Committee or a Chief Executive Officer of Post, as applicable.

The SRA shall be payable to the Employee in equal monthly installments for the
lifetime of the Employee beginning at his or her Retirement at age 62 or later,
subject to reduction, change in form of payment or forfeiture for Retirement
before age 62 or termination of employment as described in Section 4.2.

4.2 REDUCTION, CHANGE IN FORM OF PAYMENT OR FORFEITURE. A reduced amount of the
SRA shall be payable to an Employee in equal monthly installments for the
lifetime of the Employee beginning at his or her Retirement at or after age 55.
The monthly benefit otherwise payable to the Employee at his or her Retirement
at age 62 or later shall be reduced by 5/12% for each month or fraction thereof
by which the Employee’s Retirement at or after age 55 precedes the Employee’s
sixty-second birthday, to a maximum reduction of 35% at age 55. If the
Employee’s Retirement does not occur until age 62 or later, the SRA shall be
paid with no reduction for early retirement. The SRA shall not be increased if
the Employee’s Retirement occurs after age 62.

If the Employee’s Separation from Service occurs:

(a) prior to age 55 due to voluntary termination of employment, whether by
Retirement or other termination; or

(b) at any time due to termination of employment for cause;

no benefit shall be payable under this Article Four of the Plan either to the
Employee or to his or her Beneficiaries. If the Employee’s Separation from
Service occurs prior to age 55 due to involuntary termination of employment
other than for cause, within 90 days after the date of such Separation from
Service he or she will be paid a lump sum equal to the Minimum Benefit described
in Section 4.3 in lieu of the SRA described in Sections 4.1 and 4.2. For
purposes of this Section 4.2, termination of employment for cause means an
Employee’s termination of employment with an Affiliated Company because the
Employee willfully engaged in gross misconduct; provided, however, that a
termination of employment for cause shall not include a termination attributable
to (i) poor work performance, bad judgment or negligence on the part of the
Employee, or (ii) an act or omission reasonably believed by the Employee in good
faith to have been in or not opposed to the best interests of his or her
employer and reasonably believed by the Employee to be lawful.

 

8

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

4.3 MINIMUM BENEFIT. If an Employee should die before commencement of payment of
the SRA described in Sections 4.1 or 4.2, within 90 days after the date of his
or her death the Employee’s Beneficiary shall be paid a lump sum in cash equal
to the Minimum Benefit approved by the Committee or a Chief Executive Officer of
Post at the time the SRA was approved. The Beneficiary shall be designated by
the Employee on a beneficiary designation form provided in connection with this
Plan. If no such Beneficiary has been designated on a form received the Employee
Benefits Department of Post, or if no such Beneficiary survives the Employee,
then the Minimum Benefit shall be paid to the Employee’s estate.

If the Employee dies after payment of the SRA described in Sections 4.1 or 4.2
has commenced, but before an amount equal to the Minimum Benefit has been paid,
then within 90 days after the date of the Employee’s death the Beneficiary shall
be paid a lump sum in cash equal to the difference between the Minimum Benefit
and the amount of the SRA paid prior to the Employee’s death.

4.4 CALCULATION OF MINIMUM BENEFIT. The Minimum Benefit shall be a lump sum
equal to the present value of the SRA described in Section 4.1 as if it were
payable beginning at the Employee’s age 65. Except in unusual circumstances
approved by the Committee or a Chief Executive Officer at the time an SRA is
approved, the present value of the Minimum Benefit shall be calculated by using
the discount rate utilized by Post calculating pension expense for financial
accounting purposes as of the date the Award is approved. The present value
shall also be based on mortality assumptions used in qualified defined benefit
plans of the Affiliated Companies for their United States employees and certain
other assumptions deemed reasonable by Post.

4.5 TOTAL AND PERMANENT DISABILITY. If an Employee becomes totally and
permanently disabled at or after age 55, payment of the SRA shall commence in
equal monthly installments for the lifetime of the Employee at the time the
finding of disability is made. Reduction factors described in Section 4.2 for
Retirement at or after age 55 shall apply. If an Employee becomes totally and
permanently disabled before age 55, the Minimum Benefit shall be paid to the
Employee upon the Employee’s Separation from Service. An Employee shall be
considered to be “totally and permanently disabled” if the Employee is, 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 twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a
period of not less than six (6) months under the Company’s long term disability
plan, or has been determined by the Social Security Administration to be
disabled.

agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee against any
and all expenses and liabilities arising out of his or her action or failure to

extension of time for processing the claim, the Company shall furnish the
Claimant, within 90 days after its receipt of such claim, written notification
of the extension explaining the circumstances requiring such extension and the
date that it is anticipated that such written statement will be furnished, and

In the event the claim is denied, the Company shall provide such Claimant a
written statement of the Adverse Benefit Determination, as defined in Subsection
(d) below. The notice of Adverse Benefit Determination shall be delivered or
mailed to the Claimant by certified or registered mail to his or her last known

Committee review his or her claim and may request to appear before the Committee
for such review. If the Claimant does not request a review of the Adverse
Benefit Determination within such 60 day period, he or she shall be barred and
estopped from appealing the Company’s Adverse Benefit Determination. Any appeal
shall be filed with the committee at the address prescribed by the Committee,
and it shall be considered filed on the date it is received by the addressee. In

fiduciary.

The Claimant shall have the rights to:

(i) submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating
to the claim for benefits;

(ii) request, free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of all documents,
records and other information relevant to his or her claim for benefits.

circumstances require an extension of time for processing such application, the
Committee shall so notify the Claimant of its decision not later than 120 days

mean a determination that results in any of the following: the denial,
reduction, or termination of, or a failure to provide or make payment (in whole
or in part) for, a benefit, including any such denial, reduction, termination,
or failure to provide or make payment that is based on a determination of the
Claimant’s eligibility to participate in the Plan.

(e) A Claimant may bring a legal action with respect to a claim only if (i) all
procedures described above have been exhausted, and (ii) the action is commenced
within ninety (90) days after a decision on review is furnished. In light of the
Company’s substantial contacts with the State of Missouri, the fact that the
Company is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, and the Company’s establishment
of, and the Committee’s maintenance of, this Plan in Missouri, any legal action
brought by a Claimant shall be filed and conducted exclusively in the federal
courts in the Eastern District of Missouri.

5.4 EXPENSES. All expenses of the Committee with respect to the Plan shall be
paid by the Company.

5.5 CONCLUSIVENESS OF ACTION. Any action on matters within the discretion of the
Committee will be conclusive, final and binding upon all Employees and upon all
persons claiming any rights under the Plan, including the Employee’s spouse and
Beneficiaries.

ARTICLE VI

MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 OBLIGATIONS UNFUNDED. All benefits due an Employee or the Employee’s spouse
or Beneficiary pursuant to the Plan are unfunded and unsecured and are payable
out of the general funds of the Affiliated Companies. The Affiliated Companies
shall make no provision for the funding or insuring of any benefits payable
hereunder. In the event that an Affiliated Company shall decide to establish an
advance accrual reserve on its books against the future expense of payments made
hereunder, such reserve shall not under any circumstances be deemed to be an
asset of the Plan, nor a source of payment of any claims under the Plan but at
all times shall remain a part of the general assets of the Affiliated Company,
and shall be subject to the claims of its creditors.

Post may, in its sole and absolute discretion, establish a grantor trust for the
payment of benefits hereunder, the assets of which shall be at all times subject
to the claims of creditors of Post, as provided for in such trust, provided that
such trust does not alter the characterizations of the Plan as an unfunded plan
for purposes of ERISA. Such trust shall make distributions in accordance with
the terms of the Plan.

 

13

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

6.2 EXCESS BENEFIT PLAN. The portion of the Plan relating to Supplemental
Retirement Benefits payable on account of the Section 415 Limitations
constitutes an excess benefit plan as defined in Section 3(36) of ERISA.

6.3 NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. Neither the establishment of the Plan nor
the payment of any benefits thereunder nor any action of the Affiliated
Companies shall be held or construed to confer upon any person any legal right
to be continued in the employ of any Affiliated Company.

6.4 POWER TO AMEND OR TERMINATE. The Board of Directors of Post, the Committee
and their delegates are each empowered to amend, modify or terminate this Plan
at any time, except that no amendment, modification or termination may reduce or
otherwise detrimentally affect benefits payable under this Plan to an Employee
or his or her spouse or Beneficiary without regard to such amendment unless the
Employee (or spouse or Beneficiary, if the Employee is deceased) consents to
such change. Any amendment made to this Plan shall be in accordance with Code
section 409A and the regulations thereunder, and may not materially modify the
Plan with respect to benefits earned and vested prior to January 1, 2005.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Appendix A may be amended prospectively without
the consent of any Employee, spouse or Beneficiary and such amendment shall
apply to Deferrals of Compensation made after the effective date of such
amendment.

6.5 BENEFITS UPON DIVESTITURE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF BUSINESS. In the event
that, as a result of a sale of stock or assets or another transaction by which
all or part of an Affiliated Company ceases to be an affiliate of Post, an
Employee’s employment with an Affiliated Company is terminated or his or her
employer is no longer an Affiliated Company, Post reserves the right to offset
against any Supplemental Retirement Benefits, otherwise payable to such Employee
or his or her spouse or Beneficiary, retirement benefits payable to such
Employee or his or her spouse or Beneficiary from any pension or retirement plan
of such purchaser, its affiliate or successor (“Purchaser”) after consummation
