respect to Compensation earned prior to 1989 by a Participant with at least one
Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1989 (but without any Hours of Service on
or after January 1, 1994). However, a Participant’s Benefit shall not be less

1993 in the case of a Participant without at least one Hour of Service on or
after January 1, 2002 or December 31, 1988 in the case of a Participant without
at least one Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1994), based on his Benefit
Service and Final Average Compensation determined as of such date.

Department of Labor Regulations, Section 2530.204-2(d), in calculating a
Participant’s benefit; to the extent that a Participant is credited with less
than a full year’s Benefit Service for a calendar year, then the Participant’s

 

17

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

Compensation taken into account for such year for purposes of the Final Average
Compensation Formula shall be annualized by dividing such Compensation by the
number of months of Benefit Service earned by the Participant for such calendar
year and multiplying the result by 12.

acquisition or merger shall include compensation, if any, earned prior to the
date such individual first became a Participant to the extent described in the

and may withhold payments until such proof is provided; and

 

  (ii) for determinations made on or after January 1, 2003, a total and
permanent physical or mental impairment that qualifies a Participant (and

  (viii) The individual and the Participant are the same sex,

reason for which Hours of Service will be credited under this paragraph. No more

one Hour of Service. Prior to

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

January 1, 2000, such Participant shall be credited with 108 Hours of Service
for each such month; provided however, if crediting such Participant with 190
Hours of Service for such month would result in a greater benefit, then such
Participant shall be credited with 190 Hours of Service.

In determining the Hours of Service for an Employee classified on the payroll as
(i) a full-time employee for which specific records of hours are not kept, or
(ii) as non-management employees who are paid on a basis other than hourly, an

FUNDING

Section 3.1 Funding Method and Policy. The Employer Companies shall contribute
to the Plan with respect to each Plan Year an amount sufficient to satisfy their
obligations hereunder and the minimum funding standard, which shall be
considered met if at the end of each Plan Year, the Plan insofar as it relates
to each Employer Company does not have an accumulated funding deficiency, as
defined in Section 302 of ERISA. Additional amounts may be contributed, in the
Employer Companies’ discretion.

The funding method shall be contributions from the Employer Companies and the
funding policy shall be such as is consistent with the objectives of the Plan.

Section 3.2 Establishment of Funding Standard Account. The Committee hereby
establishes a funding standard account which shall be maintained in accordance
with Section 302 of ERISA. Each Employer Company shall contribute to the Plan
with respect to each Plan Year an amount sufficient to prevent the occurrence of
an accumulated funding deficiency insofar as it is concerned. The Committee
shall notify each Employer Company of the existence of an accumulated funding
deficiency but failure to so notify the Employer Company shall not relieve the
Employer Company from their obligations hereunder. The Committee shall take
whatever action is appropriate to prevent an accumulated funding deficiency,
including making application for a variance from the minimum funding standard or
an extension of amortization periods, or establishing an alternative minimum
funding standard in accordance with Sections 303, 304 and 305 of ERISA.

Section 3.3 Payment of Contributions. An Employer Company may pay its
contribution for any Plan Year on any date or dates, provided, however, that the
total amount of the Employer Company’s contribution for any Plan Year shall be
paid in full not later than the last day for timely filing of its Federal income
tax return for the year with respect to which the contribution is made,
including extensions thereof granted by the Internal Revenue Service. In
determining when to make its contributions as aforesaid, the Employer Company
shall be mindful of the quarterly contribution rules described in Section 412(m)
of the Code.

Section 3.4 Contributions by Employer. All contributions to this Plan to fund
the benefits described in Article IV shall be made only by the Employer
Companies. Except as described in Article XII with respect to medical benefits
funded by means of this Plan, no Participant contributions shall be required or
permitted.

Section 3.5 Permissible Contributions and Irrevocability. Any amounts
contributed by the Employer Company pursuant to this Article III may be
contributed by the Employer Company in cash or other property. In no such event
and under no circumstances shall such contributions, or any part thereof, revert
to or be recoverable by the Employer Company until all obligations under this
Plan have been fully satisfied as provided in Section 7.5, except as follows:

 

(a) in the case of a contribution, or any part thereof, made under a mistake of
fact, the Employer Company may recover such contribution within one year of
payment; and

 

34

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

(b) because all contributions are conditioned on deductibility, in the event
that a contribution cannot be deducted by the Employer Company pursuant to
Section 404 of the Code, the Employer Company shall recover such contribution,
to the extent disallowed, within one year after the disallowance of the
deduction.

The amount which may be returned to the Employer Company is the excess of:
(a) the amount contributed by the Employer Company over (b) the amount that
would have been contributed by the Employer Company had there not occurred a
mistake of fact or a mistake in determining the deduction. Earnings attributable
to the excess contribution may not be returned to the Employer Company, but

termination of employment, the benefit will be recalculated at the end of each
Plan Year to reflect the actuarial increase. The additional amount accrued
during each Plan Year will be offset by the benefit that is already in pay
status.

 

51

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

(e) Rounding Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining
the amount of the benefit under the Alternative Formula or the Integrated
Formula, and the early commencement reductions applicable to benefits determined
under such formulas for a Grandfathered Participant and a Pre-2001 Participant,
such Participant’s aggregate years and months of Benefit Service shall be
rounded up to the next full year if he has 6 or more months of Benefit Service
in excess of full years of Benefit Service and shall be rounded down to the next
full year if he has 5 or fewer months of Benefit Service in excess of full years
of Benefit Service.

Section 5.3 Formulas.

 

(a) RPA Formula.

 

  (i) Alternative Account Formula. The Alternative Account Formula is (A + B) ÷
120, where

 

  A = the Participant’s Alternative Points times 1% of his Final Average
Compensation up to $48,000; and

 

  B = the Participant’s Alternative-PLUS Points times 1% of his Final Average
Compensation in excess of $48,000.

 

  (ii) Integrated Account Formula. The Integrated Account Formula is (C + D) ÷
120, where

 

  C = the Participant’s Integrated Points times 1% of his Final Average
Compensation and

 

  D = the Participant’s Integrated-PLUS Points times 1% of his Final Average
Compensation in excess of the Social Security Wage Base.

 

  (iii) Accumulation of RPA Points. A Participant who has at least one Hour of
Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 2001 shall accumulate Alternative
Points, Alternative-PLUS Points, Integrated Points and Integrated-PLUS Points
(collectively, “RPA Points”) for each year and partial year of RPA Benefit
Service without regard to whether such RPA Benefit Service was completed before
January 1, 2001. The points accumulated for any year of RPA Benefit Service will
be equal to the RPA Points described in Appendix F to this Plan (the “RPA
Schedule”) for the Employer Company or Employer Companies for which the
Participant performed the RPA Benefit Service determined in accordance with this
Section 5.3(a)(iii). Credit for each year of RPA Benefit Service completed
before January 1, 2001 will be determined under Appendix F-1 as in effect on
January 1, 2001 without regard to what Employer Company employed the Participant
at the time the RPA Benefit Service was completed. No Participant shall earn
credit for more than 12 months of RPA Benefit Service in any Plan Year.

 

52

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

(b) UPS Freight Formula. The UPS Freight Formula equals one twelfth of the
product of (A) and (B), where:

 

  A = 1.725% of the Participant’s Final Average Compensation; and

 

  B = the Participant’s years and partial years of UPS Freight Benefit Service
(up to a maximum of 30 years).

 

(c) Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula. The Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Benefit Formula shall
equal one-twelfth of A x B, where:

 

  A = the Participant’s years of Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Benefit Service (not to
exceed 25 years); and

 

  B = $240.00.

 

(d) Participation in Multiple Formulas in Same Plan Year. If a Participant has
RPA Benefit Service under more than one RPA Schedule or, effective January 1,
2006, a Participant has RPA Benefit Service and UPS Freight Service, in the same
Plan Year, the benefit such Participant accrues that Plan Year will be
determined as follows:

 

  (i) First, determine the RPA Benefit Service accrued under each RPA Schedule
and the UPS Freight Service based on the Hours of Service with the Employer
Company or Companies providing such RPA Schedule or such UPS Freight Formula;

 

  (ii) Second, allocate the Benefit Service determined under (i) above to the
UPS Freight Formula;

 

  (iii) Third, allocate the excess of the Participant’s Benefit Service
determined under (i) above, over the UPS Freight Service allocated under
(ii) above to the RPA Schedules starting with the actual service completed under
the RPA Schedule that provides the highest point value and continuing with the
actual Benefit Service under the RPA Schedule with the next highest point value
until the sum of the Benefit Service allocated under (ii) and the Benefit
Service allocated under this (iii) equals the total actual Benefit Service or 12
months, whichever is less;

For example, assume a Participant has 2000 total Hours of Service for Employer
Companies during the Plan Year, 874 hours are under the RPA Schedule with the
lowest point value (Schedule 3), 874 hours are under the highest RPA Point value
(Schedule 1) and 252 hours are UPS Freight Service. The Participant’s total

 

53

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

Benefit Service is 12 months. The Participant has 6 months of RPA Benefit
Service under RPA Schedule 1 and Schedule 3, and 2 months of UPS Freight
Service. The Participant will be credited with 2 months of UPS Freight Service,
6 months of RPA Benefit Service under RPA Schedule 1 and 4 months of RPA Benefit
Service under Schedule 3;

If the Participant had 874 hours of UPS Freight Service, 874 hours of
RPA Benefit Service under the RPA Schedule with the highest point value
(Schedule 1) and 252 hours of RPA Benefit Service under the RPA Schedule with
the lowest point value (Schedule 3), the Participant will be credited with 6
months of UPS Freight Service, 6 months of RPA Benefit Service under RPA
Schedule 1 and 0 months of RPA Benefit Service under RPA Schedule 3.

 

(e) Integrated Formula. A Participant’s benefit under the Integrated Formula
shall be equal to the benefit determined under (i) or (ii) as applicable plus
the Additional Monthly Retirement Benefit, if any, applicable to such
Participant as contained in Appendix D of the Plan.

 

 

(i)

No Hours After 1996. For a Participant who does not have at least one Hour of
Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 1997, the Integrated Formula is
1/12th of 50 percent of such Participant’s Final Average Compensation less
1/12th of 50 percent of his Social Security Amount where such Participant has 30
or more years of Benefit Service. If such Participant has less than 30 years of
Benefit Service at his Annuity Starting Date, the amount calculated above shall
be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of years of
Benefit Service to his Annuity Starting Date, and the denominator of which is
30.

In the case of a Participant with at least one Hour of Service as an Employee on
or after January 1, 1992 for whom the Normal Form of benefit is a Single Life
Only Annuity, the Integrated Formula benefit shall not be less than such
Participant’s benefit under the Integrated Formula, if any, calculated in
accordance with this Section 5.3(e) and payable in the form of a Single Life
Only Annuity 120 Month Guarantee, but taking into account for this purpose only
that Compensation earned by the Participant through December 31, 1991 and
Benefit Service earned by him through December 31, 1992.

 

 

(ii)

Hours After 1996. For a Participant who has at least one Hour of Service as an
Employee on or after January 1, 1997, the Integrated Formula is 1/12th of
58.33 percent of such Participant’s Final Average Compensation (as defined under
the terms of this Plan as of the date of the Participant’s retirement or other
termination of employment) less 1/12th of 58.33 percent of his Social Security
Amount where such Participant has 35 or more years of Benefit Service. If such
Participant has less than 35 years of Benefit Service at his Annuity Starting
Date, the amount calculated above shall be multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of years of Benefit Service to his Annuity
Starting Date, and the denominator of which is 35.

 

54

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

(f) Alternative Formula. A Participant’s benefit under the Alternative Formula
shall be equal to the benefit determined under (i) or (ii) as applicable plus
the Additional Monthly Retirement Benefit, if any, applicable to such
Participant as contained in Appendix D of the Plan.

 

  (i) Hours After August 1979.

 

  (A) Hours After August 1979 But Not After 1984. For a Participant with at
least one Hour of Service on or after September 1, 1979 but without at least one
Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1985, the Alternative Formula is $24 per
month for each year of Benefit Service completed by such Participant prior to
his Normal Retirement Date to a maximum of $600 per month; provided such
Participant has 10 or more Years of Service prior to his Normal Retirement Date.

 

  (B) Hours After 1984 But Not After 1991. For a Participant with at least one
Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1985 but without at least one Hour of
Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 1992, the Alternative Formula is
$32 per month for each year of Benefit Service completed by such Participant
prior to his Normal Retirement Date or (with respect to a Participant with at
least one Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1987) Postponed Retirement Date
to a maximum of $960 per month; provided such Participant has 10 or more Years
of Service prior to his Normal Retirement Date or Postponed Retirement Date.

If a Participant without at least one Hour of Service on or after January 1,
1989 has less than 10 Years of Service prior to his Normal Retirement Date or
Postponed Retirement Date, the amount shall be determined as set forth in
Section (A) or (B) above, as applicable, using the number of years of Benefit
Service multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is his number of Years
of Service to Normal Retirement Date (or, for a Participant with at least one
Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1987, his actual retirement date) not in
excess of 10, and the denominator of which is 10. If a Participant with at least
one Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1989, and who first became a
Participant in the Plan prior to January 1, 1989, has less than 5 Years of
Service prior to his Normal Retirement Date, the amount shall be determined
under subparagraph (B) using the number of years of Benefit Service multiplied
by a fraction, the numerator of which is his number of Years of Service to his
actual retirement date, not in excess of 5, and the denominator of which is 5.
The foregoing sentence shall not apply to any individual who first became a
Participant on or after January 1, 1989.

 

55

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

  (ii) Hours After 1991.

 

  (A) Hours After 1991 But Not After 1996. For a Participant with at least one
Hour of Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 1992 but without at least
one Hour of Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 1997, the Alternative
Formula is the sum of

 

 

(1)

1/12th of two percent (2%) of such Participant’s Final Average Compensation up
to $48,000, multiplied by his years of Benefit Service to a maximum of 30; plus

 

 

(2)

1/12th of one-half of one percent (0.5%) of such Participant’s Final Average
Compensation in excess of $48,000, multiplied by his years of Benefit Service to
a maximum of 30.

 

  (B) Hours After 1996. For a Participant with at least one Hour of Service as
an Employee on or after January 1, 1997, the Alternative Formula is the sum of

 

 

(1)

1/12th of two percent (2%) of such Participant’s Final Average Compensation up
to the Threshold Amount, multiplied by his years of Benefit Service to a maximum
of 35; plus

 

  (2) 1/12th of one-half of one percent (0.5%) of such 0Participant’s Final
Average Compensation in excess of the Threshold Amount, multiplied by his years
of Benefit Service to a maximum of 35.

For purposes of this subparagraph, the term “the Threshold Amount” means $48,000
for a Participant who was born in 1957 or later, $54,000 for a Participant who
was born in or after 1951 but before 1957, and $60,000 for a Participant born in
1950 or earlier.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the benefit amount calculated in accordance with
this Section 5.3(e)(ii) shall not be less than the Participant’s Accrued
Benefit, if any, calculated in accordance with Section 5.3(e)(2)(i) and payable
in the form of a Single Life Annuity and 120-Monthly Guarantee, taking into
account all Benefit Service earned by the Participant through December 31, 1992.

 

(g) Portable Account Formula.

 

  (i) General. For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2007, each
Participant who has at least one Hour of Service on or after January 1, 2008
will accrue either a Portable Account Benefit or a Final Average Compensation
Formula benefit, but not both. If a Participant is eligible to accrue a Portable
Account Benefit, he shall not be eligible to accrue a Final Average Compensation
Formula benefit.

 

56

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant who is eligible for a Portable
Account Benefit may continue to increase his Final Average Compensation.

 

  (ii) Eligibility for Portable Account Formula Benefit. A Participant is
eligible to accrue a Portable Account Benefit if:

 

  (A) he is hired or rehired as an Employee on or after January 1, 2008;

 

  (B) he is transferred from a non-Employee position into an Employee position
on or after January 1, 2008; or

 

  (C) effective January 1, 2009, he is an Employee who was less than age 29 on
December 31, 2007.

However, a Participant whose terms and conditions of employment are governed by
a collective bargaining agreement shall not be eligible to accrue a Portable
Account Formula benefit unless expressly provided by the collective bargaining
agreement.

 

  (iii) Annual Compensation Credits. For each Plan Year during which a
Participant is a Portable Account Participant and an Employee, his Portable
Account will be credited with a percentage of his Compensation for such Plan
Year based on the number of Portable Account Points he has accumulated on the
first day of such Plan Year and the Portable Account Points schedule set forth
in Appendix F-7 for his Employer Company for such Plan Year.

The Portable Account credit will be made annually as of the last day of the Plan
Year.

 

  (iv) Interest Credits. An Interest Credit will be allocated to each Portable
Account Participant’s Portable Account as of the last day of each Plan Year,
calculated by multiplying his Account Balance as of the first day of that Plan
Year by the Interest Credit Percentage for that Plan Year. A Portable Account
will be credited with an Interest Credit for each Plan Year until the Portable
Account Participant’s benefit commencement date without regard to whether the
Portable Account Participant is an Employee. If the Portable Account
Participant’s benefit commencement date is other than the last day of a Plan
Year, the Interest Credit for the Plan Year that includes the benefit
commencement date will be prorated based on the ratio of whole months expired in
the year before the benefit commencement date, to 12.

 

57

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

  (v) Accrued Benefit Attributable to Portable Account. The portion of the
Portable Account Participant’s Accrued Benefit that is attributable to his
Portable Account as of any date is the balance credited to his Portable Account.
That balance credited to the Portable Account is payable at the times described
in Section 4.7 in the form described in Section 5.4(h).

Section 5.4 Benefit Payment.

 

(a) Annuities. Except as provided in Section 5.4(e) for cash out of benefits and
unless the Participant elects an Optional Form of Benefit pursuant to
Section 5.4(b), a benefit described in Section 5.2 will be paid:

 

  (i) If a Participant is married on his Annuity Starting Date, in the form of a
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and

 

  (ii) If the Participant is not married on the Annuity Starting Date, in the
Normal Form.

 

(b) Election out of Normal Form of Benefit or Qualified Joint and Survivor
Annuity. In lieu of the Normal Form or the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity,
a Participant who is eligible for an annuity form of benefit, may elect, at any
time within the 90-day period ending on the Annuity Starting Date, to waive the
Normal Form or the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity in favor of one of the
Actuarial Equivalent Optional Forms of Benefit described below.

 

  (i) Form of Election. An election by a Participant under this Section must be
in writing in a form approved by the Committee, and, if the Participant is
married, such election shall not be effective unless:

 

  (A) the Spouse of the Participant consents to the election, and such consent
(1) is in writing, (2) acknowledges the Participant’s selection of an alternate
form of benefit and/or Beneficiary, which may not thereafter be changed without
spousal consent unless the Spouse’s prior consent expressly permits the
Participant to change the Beneficiary without further consent by the Spouse,
(3) acknowledges the effect of such election, and (4) is witnessed by a notary
public; or

 

  (B) it is established to the satisfaction of a representative of the Plan that
the Spouse’s consent cannot be obtained because (1) the Participant has no
Spouse, (2) the Participant’s Spouse cannot be located, or (3) one of the
conditions prescribed in Treasury regulations is satisfied.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no spousal consent shall be required if a
participant elects a Joint and Survivor annuity and his Spouse is the designated
beneficiary.

 

58

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

  (ii) Spouse Affected by Election. A Participant’s election to waive the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be effective only with respect to the
Spouse who consented to the election or who was deemed to consent pursuant to
Section 5.4(b)(i)(B).

 

  (iii) Revocation of Election. A Participant may revoke an election made under
this Section 5.4(b) at any time prior to the Annuity Starting Date. A Spouse’s
consent to the waiver of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and to the
specific Beneficiary and optional form designations made by the Participant is
irrevocable unless the Participant revokes his waiver election.

 

(c) Notice Requirements. Within 90 days prior to the Participant’s Annuity
Starting Date, the Committee shall provide the Participant with a written
explanation of:

 

  (i) the terms and conditions of the Normal Form, the Qualified Joint and
Survivor Annuity;

 

  (ii) the Participant’s right to make, and the effect of, an election to waive
the Normal Form or the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and the Optional
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity;

 

  (iii) the requirement that the Participant’s Spouse consent in writing to the
election in accordance with the spousal consent provisions set forth in
Section 5.4(b)(i); and

 

  (iv) the right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of an election not to
receive the Normal Form or a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity.

 

(d) Optional Forms of Benefit.

 

  (i) Actuarial Equivalent. Each benefit payment form described in this
Section 5.4(d) will be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Participant’s benefit
payable in the Normal Form.

 

  (ii) Joint and Survivor Annuity. Under the Joint and Survivor Annuity, a
reduced monthly benefit shall be paid to the Participant for his lifetime, and
his beneficiary, if such beneficiary survives at the Participant’s death, shall
be entitled to receive thereafter a lifetime survivorship benefit in a monthly
amount equal to 50%, 75% or 100%, as selected by the Participant, of the monthly
amount which had been payable to the Participant. The last payment of the Joint
and Survivor Annuity shall be made as of the first day of the month in which the
death of the last to die of the Participant and his beneficiary has occurred.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may not select a Joint and Survivor
Benefit with a Beneficiary who would not be eligible to receive the percentage
survivor benefit selected under the requirements of proposed Treasury Regulation
Section 1.401(a)(9)-2.

 

59

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

  (iii) Single Life Annuity with 120-Month Guarantee. Under the Single Life
Annuity with 120-Month Guarantee, a reduced monthly benefit shall be paid to the
Participant for his lifetime, with a guarantee of 120 monthly payments. If the
Participant dies after the Annuity Starting Date but before receiving 120
monthly payments, the monthly payments shall be paid to the Participant’s
Beneficiary, until the Participant and his Beneficiary have received a total of
120 monthly payments.

 

  (iv) Single Life Only Annuity. Under the Single Life Only Annuity, a monthly
benefit shall be paid to the Participant for his lifetime. The last payment of
the Single Life Only Annuity shall be made as of the first day of the month in
which the death of the Participant occurs.

 

  (v) Grandfathered Overnite Participant Optional Forms. In addition to the
Optional Forms of Benefit available under Sections 5.4(d)(i) through (iv), a
Grandfathered Overnite Participant whose Annuity Starting Date is prior to his
Normal Retirement Date may elect, as an Optional Form of Benefit, a “social
security leveling income option”, which shall be a benefit for the Participant’s
lifetime providing for the adjustment of the Participant’s Normal Retirement
Benefit to produce, so far as practicable, a level combined pension from this
Plan and the Participant’s Social Security benefit (both before and after such
Social Security benefit is payable).

 

  (vi) Grandfathered Motor Cargo Participant Optional Forms. In addition to the
Optional Forms of Benefit available under Section 5.4(d)(i) through (iv), a
Grandfathered Motor Cargo Participant may elect, as an Optional Form of Benefit,
a Five Year Certain and Life Annuity for his entire Accrued Benefit.

 

(e) Cash-Out of Benefits. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, if
following a Participant’s termination of employment with the Employer Company
and all Related Employers the Present Value of his entire vested benefit does
not exceed $1,000, the Committee shall, in lieu of such benefit, pay to the
Participant, without his consent, such Present Value in a lump sum. In the case
of a Participant who terminates employment prior to earning a vested benefit
hereunder, said benefit shall be deemed to be distributed immediately following
such termination of employment. In the event such nonvested Participant is
reemployed, his Benefit Service shall be restored in accordance with the rules
set forth in the definition of such term.

 

60

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

(f) Repayment of Cash-Out. After a distribution described in Section 5.4(e), the
Participant’s service with respect to which the distribution was made shall be
disregarded for purposes of the Plan unless, following reemployment, the
Participant repays the amount of the distribution to the Trustee together with
interest at the rate of 120 percent of the Federal mid-term rate, as in effect
under Code Section 1274 for the first month of the Plan Year in which the
restoration occurs or otherwise in accordance with Code Section 411(a)(7). Such
repayment must be made within five years of the Participant’s resumption of
employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may not repay any
distribution of his Portable Account.

 

(g) Special Transitional Rules for Certain Participants in Pay Status. In the
case of a Participant with at least one Hour of Service as an Employee on or
after January 1, 1992 and whose Annuity Starting Date is in 1992, the monthly
amount of the Participant’s Normal or Early Retirement Benefit, or Deferred
Vested Benefit shall, if calculated in accordance with the terms of this Plan
prior to the adoption of Amendment No. 15, be adjusted, retroactive to the
Participant’s Annuity Stating Date, to reflect his greater benefit, if any,
determined in accordance with the terms of this Plan as amended by Amendment
No. 15. Such increase shall be calculated based on the same payment form as
selected by the Participant.

 

(h) Portable Account Benefit.

 

  (i) Form of Payment. If the Portable Account is paid before the Portable
Account Participant’s Earliest Retirement Age, it will be paid in (1) a single
lump sum or (2) an immediate annuity in the Normal Form if the Portable Account
Participant does not have a Spouse or in the Qualified Joint and Survivor
Annuity or the Optional Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity if the Portable
Account Participant has a Spouse. If the Portable Account is paid on or after
the Portable Account Participant’s Earliest Retirement Age, the Portable Account
may be paid in any Optional Form of Benefit described in Section 5.4(d) in
addition to the forms described in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Participant also is eligible for a Final Average Compensation
Formula benefit or a Pre-2006 Motor Cargo benefit and the Participant’s Portable
Account Formula benefit is not paid before his Earliest Retirement Age, his
Portable Account Formula benefit must be paid on or after his Earliest
Retirement Age at the same time and in the same form as his Final Average
Compensation Formula benefit or if he does not have a Final Average Compensation
Formula benefit, as his Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula benefit.

 

  (ii)

Conversion of Portable Account to Annuity Benefit. If the annuity will be paid
before Normal Retirement Date, the Portable Account balance will be adjusted for
Interest Credits to the Annuity Starting Date The adjusted Portable Account
balance will be converted to an immediate Single Life Annuity commencing at the
Annuity Starting Date using the Applicable Interest Rate and the Applicable
Mortality Table for the Plan Year that

 

61

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

 

includes the Annuity Starting Date. If the benefit will be paid in a form of
annuity other than the Single Life Annuity, the reduced Single Life Annuity will
be converted to the applicable Optional Form of Benefit using the Actuarial
Equivalent Factors in Section 1.1(b)(i).

Section 5.5 Disability Retirement Benefit. Subject to the provisions of
Section 5.9 and of Appendix J and K, the amount of monthly benefit to which a
Participant is entitled under this Section 5.5 because of a Disability is:

 

(a) With reference to a Disability occurring prior to January 1, 1978, the
amount determined by multiplying $8.00 by the number of years of Benefit
Service, to a maximum of 25, completed by the Participant prior to his
Disability, or

 

(b) With reference to a Disability occurring on or after January 1, 1978, the
amount determined by multiplying $9.60 by the number of years of Benefit Service
to a maximum of 25 (30, in case of Disability occurring on or after January 1,
1992), completed by the Participant prior to his Disability.

The benefit payable under this Section 5.5 shall be paid to the disabled
Participant so long as he remains Disabled.

Section 5.6 Preretirement Survivor Annuity.

 

(a) Final Average Compensation Formula or Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula. If a
vested Participant dies prior to his Annuity Starting Date, his Spouse or
Domestic Partner will be entitled to receive a Preretirement Survivor Annuity
for that portion of his benefit attributable to the Final Average Compensation
Formula and Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula commencing:

 

  (i) if the Participant dies after attaining his Earliest Commencement Age, as
of the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date of the
Participant’s death; and

 

  (ii) if the Participant dies on or before attaining his Earliest Commencement
Age, as of the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date
the Participant would have attained his Earliest Commencement Age

 

(b) Amount of Preretirement Survivor Annuity for Final Average Compensation
Formula or Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula. The Preretirement Survivor Annuity to
which the Participant’s surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner shall be entitled
hereunder shall be equal to, for a surviving Spouse, the amount which would have
been payable to the Participant’s Spouse under the Qualified Joint and Survivor
Annuity or, for a Domestic Partner, the Joint and 50% Survivor Annuity:

 

  (i) if the Participant dies after he attains his Earliest Commencement Age,
had the Participant retired and commenced receiving benefits attributable to the
Final Average Compensation Formula and Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula on the day
immediately preceding his death;

 

62

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

  (ii) if the Participant dies on or before attaining his Earliest Commencement
Age, had the Participant:

 

  (A) separated from service on the date of his death (or his actual date of
separation, if earlier);

 

  (B) survived to his Earliest Commencement Age;

 

  (C) retired with an immediate Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity for the
Spouse or, in the case of a Participant with a Domestic Partner, the Joint and
50% Survivor Annuity at his Earliest Commencement Age, based on his benefit
attributable to the Final Average Compensation Formula and Pre-2006 Motor Cargo
Formula; and

 

  (D) died on the day after he would have attained his Earliest Commencement
Age; and

 

(c) Special Rule for 25 Years of Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
Participant (other than a UPS Freight Participant) with at least one Hour of
Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 1992 dies before attaining his
Early Retirement Date while actively employed by an Employer Company after
having earned at least 25 Years of Service, the Qualified Joint and Survivor
Annuity or the Joint and 50% Survivor Annuity used as the basis for calculating
the amount of the Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be determined by using
the early commencement reduction factors that would have been applicable to such
Participant with respect to Early Retirement Benefits had he survived to his
Early Retirement Date.

 

(d) Deferring Commencement. The Participant’s surviving Spouse or Domestic
Partner may elect to defer commencement of the Preretirement Survivor Annuity
attributable to the Final Average Compensation Formula and Pre-2006 Motor Cargo
Formula, but not later than the date the Participant would have attained his
Normal Retirement Date.

 

(e) Present Value Less Than $1,000. In lieu of the Preretirement Survivor
Annuity attributable to the Final Average Compensation Formula and Pre-2006
Motor Cargo Formula, before the first payment with respect to such benefit, the
Committee shall pay to the surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner, without his
consent, the Present Value of the benefit if such Present Value is less than
$1,000.

 

(f)

Preretirement Survivor Annuity Attributable to Portable Account. If a vested
Portable Account Participant dies (whether or not employed) or a nonvested
Portable Account Participant dies while employed with an Employer Company or a
Related Employer, the surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner of such Participant

 

63

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

 

will be entitled to receive the Portable Account balance as a preretirement
survivor annuity. The surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner may elect to have the
Portable Account paid in a (1) single lump sum or (2) an immediate or deferred
Single Life Annuity based on the life of the surviving Spouse or Domestic
Partner. Payment may be made as of the first day of the month after the Portable
Account Participant dies or as of the first day of any subsequent month on or
before the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date. If the Spouse or Domestic
Partner selects an annuity benefit, the Portable Account will be converted to a
Single Life Annuity for the life of the Spouse or Domestic Partner using the
same methodology described in Section 5.4(h). If the deceased Participant did
not have a Spouse or Domestic Partner at his death, the balance credited to the
Portable Account will be paid in a single lump sum to the Participant’s
Beneficiary as soon as practicable after the death of the deceased Participant
and the Beneficiary has completed an application for such benefit.

 

(g) Death After Payment of Portable Account. If the Portable Account Participant
dies after payment of his Portable Account has been made or has begun, the
surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner will not be entitled to a preretirement
survivor annuity from the Portable Account.

Section 5.7 Benefit Payments Under Other Plans and Programs. The benefits
otherwise provided in Sections 5.2 through 5.6 of this Plan shall be reduced by
the amount of any benefits payable to or on behalf of a Participant, under any
other non-government pension or retirement plan or program to which
contributions have been made by an Employer Company on behalf of such person or
under which service is counted in calculating benefits under this Plan, (other
than benefits under the Portable Account Formula) except any cash or deferred
plan described in Section 401(k) of the Code or the UPS Qualified Stock
Ownership Plan, to the extent that such benefits payable under such other plan
or program are based on a period of time included in the calculation of Benefit
Service, for purposes of this Plan and are not attributable to contributions
made to such other plan or program by the Participant.

If a reduction in benefits is also called for in another plan or plans sponsored
and maintained by the Employer Company by reason of the benefits payable to a
Participant under this Plan, the reduction in benefits shall be made only in the
benefits payable under the plan in which the Participant last participated, and
if he participated in more than one such other plan, then the reduction shall be
made in the reverse order of participation with no reduction in the benefits
payable under the plan in which the Participant first participated.

If the Participant receives one form of benefit under this Plan and another form
of benefit under any such other plan, any reduction hereunder shall be based on
actuarially equivalent forms of benefit.

 

64

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

Section 5.8 Preservation of Benefits and Maximum Pensions. Anything to the
contrary notwithstanding, a retirement benefit computed under this Article V
shall be subject to the following:

 

(a) Minimum Benefit for Participation as of the Effective Date. If a Participant
was included under the provisions of the Plan prior to January 1, 1976, and a
benefit becomes payable under this Plan resulting from termination of employment
for any reason on or after the January 1, 1976, such benefit shall not be less
than the actuarial equivalent of the benefit that would have been payable had
the provisions of the Plan in effect immediately prior to January 1, 1976
remained in effect until the Participant’s termination of employment,
considering the years of continuous employment accumulated at termination of
employment and the benefits in effect immediately prior to January 1, 1976.

 

(b) Maximum Benefits.

 

  (i) General Limitation. For limitation years ending after December 31, 2002,
the maximum annual benefit payable under this Plan shall not exceed the lesser
of: (A) $160,000 as adjusted, effective January 1 of each year, under
Section 415(d) of the Code in such manner as the Secretary shall prescribe (the
“dollar limitation”) or (B) 100% of the Participant’s average compensation (as
defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.415-2(d)) and reduced, if necessary, to
reflect the applicable annual compensation limitation under Section 401(a)(17)
of the Code, paid for the three consecutive calendar years during which he was
an active Participant in the Plan, and in which he received the greatest
aggregate compensation (as defined above)from the Employer Company, subject to
the following:

 

  (A) If the benefit is payable in any form other than a straight life annuity,
a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or a joint and survivor annuity with the
Spouse as the beneficiary, then the limitations of this subsection (1) shall be
applied to the straight life annuity which is the actuarial equivalent of such
benefit. The actuarially equivalent straight life annuity is equal to the
greater of the annuity benefit computed using the interest rate and mortality
table (or other tabular factor) specified in the Plan for adjusting benefits in
the same form, and the annuity benefit computed using a 5 percent interest rate
assumption and the Applicable Mortality Table. In determining the actuarially
equivalent straight life annuity for a lump sum benefit, the Applicable Interest
Rate will be substituted for 5 percent. No actuarial adjustment is required for
the value of a qualified joint and survivor annuity, benefits that are not
directly related to retirement benefits and the value of post-retirement
cost-of-living increases made in accordance with Section 415(d) of the Code and
the regulations thereunder.

 

65

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

  (B) (1) If the retirement benefit of the Participant commences before the age
62, such dollar limitation shall be adjusted as described below so that it is
the actuarial equivalent of an annual benefit of the dollar limitation beginning
at age 62, reduced for each month by which benefits commence before the month in
which the Participant attains age 62. The retirement benefit beginning prior to
age 62 shall be determined as the lesser of the actuarial equivalent retirement
benefit computed using the interest rate and mortality table (or other tabular
factor) equivalence for early retirement benefits specified in the Plan, and the
equivalent retirement benefit computed using a 5 percent interest rate and the
Applicable Mortality Table. Any decrease in the adjusted defined benefit dollar
limitation determined in accordance with this provision (B)(1) shall not reflect
any mortality decrement to the extent that benefits will not be forfeited upon
the death of the Participant. If any benefits are forfeited upon death, the full
mortality decrement is taken into account.

 

  (2) If the retirement benefit of a Participant commences after age 65, the
defined benefit dollar limitation shall be adjusted so that it is the actuarial
equivalent of a retirement benefit of such dollar limitation beginning at age
65. The actuarial equivalent retirement benefit beginning after age 65 shall be
determined as the lesser of the actuarial equivalent retirement benefit computed
using the interest rate and mortality table (or other tabular factor) specified
in the Plan for purposes of determining actuarial equivalence for delayed
retirement benefits, and the equivalent retirement benefit computed using a 5
percent interest rate assumption and the Applicable Mortality Table.

 

  (C) Subject to limitations imposed elsewhere in this Plan, an annual benefit
of $10,000 or less may be paid regardless of the limitations set forth in this
subsection (b)(i) if the benefit paid the Participant from all defined benefit
plans of the Employer Company does not exceed $10,000 for the Plan Year or any
prior Plan Year, and the Employer Company has not at any time maintained a
defined contribution plan in which the Participant participated.

 

  (D) If a Participant has less than 10 Years of service with the Employer
Company at the time the Participant begins to receive retirement benefits under
the Plan, the average compensation limitation, as well as the $10,000 benefit
exception described in subparagraph (b)(i)(C) above, shall be reduced by
multiplying such limitation by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of Years of Service with the Employer Company as of and including the current
limitation year, and the denominator of which is 10. In the case of the dollar
limitation where the Participant has less than 10 years of participation in the
Plan, such limitation shall be reduced by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of years of participation in the Plan as of and including the current
limitation year, and the denominator of which is 10.

 

66

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

  (ii) Limitation Adjustment. The rate of a Participant’s benefit accrual will
be automatically frozen or reduced to a level necessary to prevent the
limitations of this subsection (b) from being exceeded; provided, that if the
limitations of this subsection (b) will be exceeded only as a result of
considering another defined benefit plan sponsored by the Employer Company and
this Plan as one plan, the Participant’s benefit accrual under this plan will
not be frozen or reduced to a level necessary to prevent the limitations of this
subsection (b) from being exceeded in the event that such other defined benefit
plan provides for the freezing or reduction of benefit accruals.

 

  (iii) Single Plan Rule. For purposes of this subsection (b), all defined
benefit plans of the Employer Company (whether or not terminated) shall be
considered as one defined benefit plan.

 

  (iv) Automatic Adjustment. The limitations imposed by this subsection (b)
shall be adjusted automatically when permitted or required by law. With respect
to increases in these limitations which are permitted by law to reflect the
impact of inflation, in the event that a Participant’s Normal Retirement Benefit
or Early Retirement Benefit as of his Annuity Starting Date, must be reduced by
reason of the foregoing limitations in effect at such time, the following rules
shall apply:

 

  (A) A Participant’s Normal Retirement Benefit or Early Retirement Benefit,
taking into account the Compensation limitation under Section 401(a)(17) of the
Code (the “Compensation limitation”), and applying the applicable limitation or
limitations of Section 5.8(b)(i) or Section 5.7(b)(i)(B)(1) (as applicable, the
“415 limitations”) shall, following the Annuity Starting Date, be adjusted
upward as the result of any subsequent increase in the 415 limitations, provided
however, that in no event shall such benefit exceed the Participant’s Normal
Retirement Benefit or Early Retirement Benefit, as the case may be, including
the Compensation limitation.

 

  (B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Participant’s Normal
Retirement Benefit or Early Retirement Benefit, for any particular year, exceed
the 415 limitation for such year (based on the Participant’s age on his Annuity
Starting Date), and no increase as described in subparagraph (A) above shall be
retroactive for any preceding year.

 

67

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

  (C) A Participant’s Normal Retirement Benefit or Early Retirement Benefit
shall not be adjusted upward as the result of any change to the Compensation
limitation following the Annuity Starting Date.

 

  (v) Limitation Year. For purposes of this subsection (b), the limitation year
is the calendar year.

 

  (vi) Employer Company. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.8(b), “Employer
Company” means the Employer Company and each entity who would be determined to
be a member of the Employer Company’s controlled group under Section 414(b) or
(c) of the Code if the standard of “more than fifty percent” was substituted for
the standard of “at least eighty percent.

 

  (vii) Transitional Rules.

 

  (A) The limitation under Section 5.8(b)(i) for an Employee who was a
Participant in this Plan prior to January 1, 1983, shall be the greater of
(1) the limitation contained in such Section or (2) the Participant’s accrued
benefit, expressed as an annual benefit, as of December 31, 1982. For purposes
of this paragraph (A), neither changes in the terms and conditions of this Plan
nor cost of living adjustments occurring after July 1, 1982, shall be taken into
account.

 

  (B) The numerator of the defined contribution fraction shall, if necessary, be
adjusted as permitted by Treasury Regulations so that the sum of the defined
benefit fraction and the defined contribution fraction does not exceed 1.0 for
the last limitation year beginning before January 1, 1983.

 

(c) Incorporation by Reference. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 5.8, the limitations on the maximum benefits payable from this Plan
shall be in accordance with Code Section 415 and the regulations thereunder,
which are incorporated into this Plan by reference.

Section 5.9 Limitations Regarding Time of Payment of Benefits. All payments
authorized under this Plan shall commence no later than the 60th day after the
close of the Plan Year in which the Participant terminates his service with the
Employer Company, provided proper application under Section 4.1 is filed, or as
required by Article VI of Appendix M.

Section 5.10 Designation of Beneficiary.

 

(a)

Each Participant may designate beneficiaries (including a primary beneficiary
and one or more contingent beneficiaries in the event of the death of the
primary beneficiary) to receive such benefits as may be payable under the
provisions of this Plan. The designation of any beneficiary may be changed from
time to time

 

68

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

 

by the Participant filing a new designation with the Committee, to be effective
upon receipt by the Committee, provided it is received by the Committee prior to
the Participant’s death. The consent of any previously designated beneficiary to
such change shall not be required to effect the change. No designation of a
beneficiary shall be effective to the extent that honoring such designation
would conflict with the rights of the Participant’s Spouse under Section 5.4,
and no such designation shall be effective to the extent that, in conjunction
with such spousal rights, it would require duplication of benefit payments.

 

(b) In the event that a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary or if a
designated beneficiary does not survive the Participant or is not specified
elsewhere in this Plan, payment will be made to the Spouse or Domestic Partner
of the deceased Participant, if any, but if none survives the Participant, to
his surviving children. If no children survive the Participant, payment will be
made to the Participant’s estate. If a beneficiary who has begun to receive
payments pursuant to Article V dies before all payments are made, the balance
due, if any, shall be paid in a lump sum or in installments, as the Committee
shall direct, to the estate of the deceased beneficiary.

Section 5.11 Final Payment to Participant or Beneficiary. Any final payment or
distribution to any Participant or a legal representative or Beneficiary of a
Participant, or any one claiming under them, in accordance with this Plan, shall
be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the
Committee, any Employer Company, and all representatives, officers, employees
and agents thereof. The person receiving the payment or distribution may be
required to execute a receipt and release of all claims under the Plan upon a
final payment or distribution or a receipt and release to the extent of any
partial payment or distribution. The form and content of such receipt or release
shall be determined by the Committee.

Section 5.12 Suspension of Benefits.

 

(a) If a Participant, other than a Grandfathered Motor Cargo Participant,
entitled to receive benefits (which shall be deemed to include the actual
receipt of such benefits) should (i) return to employment or (ii) remain in
employment after attaining Normal Retirement Age, the payment of benefits to
said Participant shall be suspended for the period in which the Participant
remains employed but not beyond the required beginning date set forth in
Section 5.9(b). Benefit payments will be resumed no later than the first day of
the third calendar month after the month in which the Participant ceases to be
employed, provided the Participant has informed the Plan Administrator that he
has ceased such employment.

 

(b) For purposes of this Section 5.12, a period of employment as to which
benefits shall be suspended means any calendar month or a four or five week
period ending in a calendar month, if the Participant completes at least forty
hours of service (as defined in 29 CFR §2530.200b-2(a)(1) and (2)) with the
Employer Company or a Related Employer in such month or payroll period.

 

69

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

(c) Any Participant coming under this provision will be notified by first class
mail or personal delivery within the first calendar month or payroll period in
which the Plan withholds the payment of Retirement Benefits.

 

(d) Any Participant may request a determination of whether or contest a
determination that specific contemplated employment will be considered
employment for purposes of this Section 5.12. Request for status determinations
may be submitted in accordance with the claim procedures set forth in
Section 9.4.

 

(e) When the Participant is entitled to recommence benefits, his benefits shall
be recalculated on the basis of Compensation earned and years of Benefit Service
credited during such period of reemployment or continued employment, and no
actuarial or other adjustment shall be made to such Participant’s benefit so as
to reflect payments so suspended. In addition, such resumed payment shall be
offset by (i) any benefit paid with respect to a month in which the Participant
was in service described in Section 5.12(b) where the amount so paid has not
been returned or repaid to the Plan by such Participant and (ii) the Actuarial
Equivalent of any payments made to the Participant before his Normal Retirement
Date. A Participant whose benefits have been suspended during a period of
reemployment or continued employment shall be entitled to elect the form of
payment for his entire benefit, including amounts accrued both before and during
reemployment, in accordance with Section 5.4.

If a Participant returns to employment after receiving payment of his Portable
Account Benefit, his benefits attributable to the Portable Account Formula shall
not be suspended.

Section 5.13 Withholding of Income Tax.

 

(a) Notification of Withholding of Federal Income Tax. All Participants,
Spouses, Domestic Partners and Beneficiaries entitled to receive benefits under
the Plan (each, a “payee”) shall be notified of the Plan’s obligation to
withhold federal income tax from any benefits payable pursuant to the terms of
the Plan. Such notice shall be in writing, be given at the time set forth in
subsection (b) and contain the information set forth in subsection (c) of this
Section.

 

(b) Time of Notice. The notice described in subsection (a) shall be provided not
earlier than six months before such payment is to be made and not later than the
time the payee is furnished with his claim for benefits application.

 

(c) Content of the Notice. The notice required by subsection (a) shall, at a
minimum:

 

  (i)

with respect to any distribution which is an eligible rollover distribution
within the meaning of Code Section 3405(c)(3) (other than an eligible

 

70

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

 

rollover distribution of less than $200 which is exempt from withholding under
regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury), advise the payee that
there shall be withheld from such distribution an amount equal to 20 percent
thereof (or such other amount as may from time to time be prescribed by the
Code, or the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate), unless the payee
directs the Committee to transfer such distribution as a direct rollover to an
eligible retirement plan, within the meaning of Section 5.14 hereof, in
accordance with such procedures as the Committee may prescribe (a “transfer
direction”),

 

  (ii) with respect to any distribution which is not an eligible rollover
distribution within the meaning of Code Section 3405(c)(3):

 

  (A) advise the payee of his right to elect not to have withholding apply to
any payment or distribution and explain the manner in which such election may be
made, and include or indicate the source of any forms necessary to make the
election;

 

  (B) advise the payee of his right to revoke such an election at any time;

 

  (C) advise the payee that any election remains effective until revoked;

 

  (D) advise the payee that penalties may be incurred under the estimated tax
payment rules if the payee’s payments of estimated tax are not adequate and
sufficient tax is not withheld from payments under this Plan; and

 

  (E) advise the payee that the election not to have federal income tax withheld
from benefits is prospective only and that any election made after a payment or
distribution to the payee is not an election with respect to such payment or
distribution.

 

(d) Effective Date of Election. Any transfer direction, election or revocation
of any election by a payee shall become effective immediately upon receipt by
the Committee of the transfer direction, election or revocation. Thereafter, the
Committee shall, unless otherwise provided by applicable law, regulation or
other guidance by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate, instruct the
Trustee to withhold federal income tax in accordance or consistent with the
instructions filed by the payee.

 

(e) Failure to Make Election.

 

(i) In the case of an eligible rollover distribution, if the payee fails to
provide the Committee with a transfer direction, the Committee shall instruct
the Trustee to withhold an amount equal to 20% of the amount of the distribution
(or such other amount as may be from time to time prescribed by the Code, or the
Secretary of the Treasurer or his delegate).

 

71

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

  (ii) In the case of a distribution which is not an eligible rollover
distribution, if the payee fails to provide the Committee with a withholding
certificate, the Committee shall instruct the Trustee to withhold, in the case
of a periodic distribution, the amount which would be required to be withheld
from such payment if such payment were a payment of wages by an employer to an
employee for the appropriate payroll period, determined as if the payee were a
married person claiming three withholding allowances. In the case of a
nonperiodic distribution, 10% of the amount of the distribution shall be
withheld.

 

(f) Coordination with Internal Revenue Code and Regulations. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Committee shall discharge its withholding and notice obligations
in accordance with the Code and regulations and such other guidance with respect
thereto as may be promulgated from time to time by the Secretary of the Treasury
or his delegate.

Section 5.14 Direct Rollover.

 

(a) With respect to any distribution described in this Article V which
constitutes an eligible rollover distribution within the meaning of Code
Section 401(a)(31)(C), the distributee thereof shall, in accordance with
procedures established by the Committee, be afforded the opportunity to direct
that such distribution be transferred directly to the trustee of an eligible
retirement plan (a “direct rollover”). For purposes of the foregoing sentence,
an “eligible retirement plan” is (1) a qualified trust within the meaning of
Code Section 402 which is a defined contribution plan the terms of which permit
the acceptance of rollover distributions, (2) an individual retirement account
or annuity within the meaning of Code Section 408 (other than an endowment
contract), (3) an annuity plan within the meaning of Code Section 403(a), which
is specified by the distributee in such form and at such time as the Committee
may prescribe, and effective for distributions made after December 31, 2001,
(4) an annuity contract described in Code Section 403(b) and (5) an eligible
plan under Code Section 457(b) which is maintained by a state, political
subdivision of a state, or any agency instrumentality of a state or political
subdivision of a state and which agrees to separately account for amounts
transferred into such plan from this Plan. For distributions made after
December 31, 2001, the definition of “eligible retirement plan” shall also apply
in the case of a distribution to a surviving Spouse, or to a Spouse or former
Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relation order, as
defined in Code Section 414(p).

 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the distributee elects to have his
eligible rollover distribution paid in part to him, and paid in part as a direct
rollover:

 

  (i) The direct rollover must be in an amount of $500 or more.

 

72

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

  (ii) A direct rollover to two or more eligible retirement plans shall not be
permitted.

 

(c) The Committee shall, within a reasonable period of time prior to making an
eligible rollover distribution from this Plan, provide a written explanation to
the distributee of the direct rollover option described above, as well as the
provisions under which such distribution will not be subject to tax if
transferred to an eligible retirement plan within 60 days after the date on
which the distributee received the distribution.

Section 5.15 Recovery of Overpayments. No person is entitled to any benefit
under this Plan except and to the extent expressly provided under this Plan. The
fact that payments have been made from this Plan in connection with any claim
for benefits under this Plan does not (a) establish the validity of the claim,
(b) provide any right to have such benefits continue for any period of time, or
(c) prevent the Plan from recovering the benefits paid to the extent that the
Committee determines that there was no right to payment of the benefits under
this Plan or that there was a mistake in the calculation of benefits under this
Plan. Thus, if a benefit is paid under this Plan and it is thereafter determined
by the Committee that such benefit should not have been paid, or that such
benefit was overpaid (whether or not attributable to an error by the
Participant, the Committee or any other person), then the Committee may take
such action as it deems necessary or appropriate to remedy such situation,
including, without limitation, deducting the amount of any overpayment
theretofore made to or on behalf of the Participant from any succeeding payments
to or on behalf of the Participant or instituting legal action to recover such
overpayments. The period over which the Committee may recover any benefit
overpayment shall not be limited by the period during which the error occurred.

 

73

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

ARTICLE VI

VESTING

Section 6.1 Vesting. Each Participant shall have a 100% vested interest in his
Accrued Benefit, other than his Portable Account, after completing at least five
Years of Service, and have a 100% vested interest in his Portable Account after
completing at least three Years of Service, but except as provided in the
applicable Appendix or in Article XI, Top-Heavy Provisions, shall have no vested
interest prior thereto. In addition, the benefit to which a Participant is
entitled shall be fully vested in such Participant upon his attainment of his
Normal Retirement Date.

Any Participant in the Plan on the date of adoption of any amendment to the
vesting schedule may, within an election period which begins on the date of
adoption of such amendment to the vesting schedule and ends on the sixtieth day
after the latest of: (i) the date the amendment is adopted; (ii) the date the
amendment becomes effective; or (iii) the date the Participant is given written
notice of the amendment by the Committee, elect to have his vested percentage
determined under his vesting schedule as in effect immediately prior to the
effective date of amendment, provided he has completed three Years of Service
prior to the end of the election period. Any election made will be irrevocable.
Further no Participant shall have his vested percentage decreased by any change
in the vesting schedule.

Section 6.2 Breaks in Service for Vesting Purposes. If a Participant with no
vested interest, as determined under Section 6.1, incurs one or more consecutive
Breaks in Service:

 

(a) Prior to 2000, Years of Service before such Break in Service shall not be
taken into account for purposes of Section 6.1 until the Participant completes
one Year of Service after the Break in Service; and

 

(b) Years of Service prior to the Break in Service shall not be taken into
account for purposes of Section 6.1 if the number of consecutive Breaks in
Service equals or exceeds the greater of (i) the aggregate number of the
Participant’s Years of Service (excluding Years of Service not required to be
taken into account by reason of any prior Breaks in Service), or (ii) with
respect to a Break in Service incurred by a person who is an Employee on or
after January 1, 1985, regardless of when the Break in Service occurred, six.

Section 6.3 Forfeitures. All forfeitures of nonvested interests in the Plan
occurring during the Plan Year shall be applied to reduce future contributions
and shall not be used or applied to increase the benefits to which any
Participant would be entitled hereunder.

 

74

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

ARTICLE VII

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION; MERGER

Section 7.1 Right to Amend or Terminate. The Employer Companies hope, and
expect, to continue this Plan and the funding of benefits hereunder
indefinitely; but such continuance is not assumed as a contractual obligation
and, in order to protect both Participants and the Employer Companies against
unforeseen contingencies, the Employer Companies expressly reserve the right, by
action of their boards of directors, to discontinue contributions to this Plan
or to terminate this Plan at any time with respect to its Participants, without
the consent of any party. The right to amend this Plan in any respect or
particular is vested exclusively in the Board of Directors which right is not
conditional on the consent or approval of any other Employer Company.
Additionally, any amendment or modification may be made retroactive, if
necessary or appropriate to qualify or maintain the Plan as a qualified Plan
within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code, and to qualify or maintain the
Trust as tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code, and the regulations issued
thereunder. Notice of any amendment or modification of the Plan may be given by
posting, by mail, or by such other means as may be acceptable under ERISA.

Section 7.2 Withdrawal of Employer Company. Any Employer Company, by action of
its board of directors, may withdraw from the Plan at any time.

Section 7.3 Liquidation of Trust Fund. Upon termination or partial termination
of the Plan, each affected Participant’s benefits, determined prior to the date
of termination, shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable, to the extent
funded and to the extent such benefit is not restricted pursuant to the
provisions of Section 7.9 herein. The assets of the Trust Fund, shall be
allocated among Participants and beneficiaries, after payment of administration
expenses of the Plan, in the following order of priority as modified by the
provisions of IRS regulations 1.414(l)-1(f) or (h) if a special schedule of
benefits (as defined in the regulations) is in effect as a result of a plan
merger within the five year period prior to the date of termination:

 

(a) Benefits Payable Three Years Prior to Termination. First, to provide
benefits that become payable three or more years before the date of termination
of the Plan, or that would have become payable had the Participant retired
immediately prior to the beginning of such three year period, provided that

 

  (i) the benefit payable to a Participant or Beneficiary (or that could have
been payable) shall be based on the provisions of the Plan in effect during the
five year period prior to the date of termination of the Plan; and further
provided that,

 

  (ii) the lowest benefit payable during such three year period shall be
considered the benefit payable for purposes of this category (a).

 

(b) Other Benefits Eligible for Termination Insurance. Second, to the extent
that a benefit has not been provided in category (a), the remaining assets shall
be allocated to provide any benefit provided under the Plan for Participants and
beneficiaries to the extent guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation pursuant to Title IV of ERISA.

 

75

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

  (c) Other Benefits. To the extent that a benefit under the Plan has not been
provided in the foregoing categories, the assets of the Plan shall be allocated
to provide all other non-forfeitable benefits under the Plan and, finally, to
provide all other benefits under the Plan.

If the assets of the Trust Fund applicable to any of the above categories are
insufficient to provide full benefits for all persons in such group, the
benefits otherwise payable to such persons shall be allocated pro rata on the
basis of the present value of benefits as of the termination date. The Actuary
shall calculate the allocation of the assets of the Trust Fund in accordance
with the above priority categories, and certify his calculations to the
Committee. Each of the above classes shall be divided into subclasses, giving
first preference within the class to those Participants over 65 and those
beneficiaries receiving benefits; second preference to Participants over 60
years of age; third preference to Participants over 55 years of age; fourth
preference to Participants under 55 years of age having a deferred vested
benefit; and fifth preference to all others. The Committee may establish
additional subclasses within the classes set forth in subsection (a), (b), and
(c).

Section 7.4 Finality of Payment. Prior to making any distribution under the
terms of Section 7.3, the Committee shall satisfy itself that this procedure
complies with applicable law and shall obtain such waivers and authorizations
from Participants and beneficiaries as it deems advisable.

Section 7.5 Non-diversion of Assets. Except as provided in Section 3.5 hereof,
regarding return of contributions no part of the assets of the Trust, by reason
of any amendment or otherwise, shall at any time be used for, or diverted to,
purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants, former
Participants, or their beneficiaries, and for the payment of administrative
expenses under the Plan, or as will cause, or permit the assets of the Trust to
revert to, or become the property of an Employer Company at any time prior to
the satisfaction of all liabilities under the Plan. When all such liabilities
have been satisfied, any assets remaining will revert to the Employer Companies.

Section 7.6 Committee Functions during Termination. If the Plan is terminated,
the Committee in office at the time of such termination shall continue to act
with its full powers hereunder until the completion of the allocation and
distribution of the assets of the Trust Fund as in this Article VII provided;
and a majority of the members of the Committee then in office shall have the
power to fill any vacancies occurring in the Committee after such termination by
resignation, death, or otherwise. In the event the Committee within a reasonable
time after such termination shall not have provided for such allocation and
distribution, the Board of Directors shall succeed to all powers and duties of
the Committee and shall provide for such allocation and distribution of the
assets of the Trust Fund.

Section 7.7 Notice of Termination. Notice of termination of the Plan, in whole
or in part, shall be deemed adequately given if an Employer Company of the
Committee mails written notice of the same to the latest address on file of each
Participant or beneficiary who is affected by such termination; or by such other
means as may be acceptable under ERISA.

 

76

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

Section 7.8 Merger and Consolidation of Plan, Transfer of Assets. In the case of
any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets and liabilities to, any
other plan, provisions shall be made so that each Participant in the Plan on the
date thereof (if the Plan then terminated) would receive a benefit immediately
after the merger, consolidation or transfer which is equal to or greater than
the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately prior to the
merger, consolidation or transfer if the Plan had been terminated.

Section 7.9 Discontinuance of Plan Within Ten Years of Amendment. In the event
that the Plan is discontinued by any Employer Company within ten (10) years
after any amendment to the Plan which increases the benefits payable under the
Plan, or if the full current costs (including current service contributions and
interest on any unfunded liability for the initial cost of retroactive increases
in benefits not covered by current service contributions) are not met by such
Employer Company during such ten (10) year period, the contributions which may
be used to provide benefits for any one of the twenty-five (25) most highly
compensated employees on the effective date of such amendment, whose anticipated
retirement annuity based upon the rate of compensation as of that date would be
more than $1,500 per year, until such full current costs are funded for the
first time, shall not exceed the greatest of:

 

(a) The total contributions which would have been applied to provide a
retirement annuity for any such employee if the Plan prior to such amendment had
continued without change;

 

(b) $20,000; or

 

(c) The amount which would have been provided by contributions under the Plan
prior to such amendment if the Plan had been terminated the day before the
effective date of such amendment, plus an amount computed by multiplying the
number of years during which current costs beginning with the effective date of
such amendment are met by (i) 20% of any such employee’s annual compensation or
(ii) $10,000, whichever is less.

Any excess reserves resulting from the application of the foregoing provisions
of this Section shall be used and applied toward the funding of the benefits due
to other Participants in the Plan who are employees of such Employer Company, in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

If the Plan is in full force and effect and the full current costs have been
met, the foregoing conditions shall not restrict the current payment of full
benefits called for by the Plan to any Participant. The limitations of this
Section shall be inapplicable to the extent the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
or his duly authorized representative may later rule that the limitations are no
longer necessary for the Plan to meet the requirements for qualifications under
the Internal Revenue Code.

If this Plan is not terminated within the period specified above, the benefits,
if any, which have been withheld from a Participant in accordance with this
Section shall be turned over to the Participant or his representative at the end
of said period or as soon thereafter as the full current costs of the Plan
attributable to the said period have been met for the first time.

 

77

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

If this Plan is terminated within any of the said periods or thereafter, but
before the full current costs of the Plan attributable to any of the said
periods have been met for the first time, then any benefits which have been
withheld from a Participant in accordance with this Section shall, upon
termination of this Plan, be distributed as provided in Section 7.3, except that
no part of such funds shall be distributed or used to fund benefits for any
Participant who is affected by the limitations of this Article.

 

78

ARTICLE IX

ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE

Section 9.1 Establishment of Administrative Committee. The Plan shall be
operated and administered by an Administrative Committee consisting of not less
than three (3) members (“named fiduciaries”), who shall be appointed by the
Board of Directors. The Administrative Committee shall be the Plan Administrator
as that term is used in ERISA, agent for service of process on or with respect
to the Plan and a named fiduciary with respect to the Plan. Committee members
may be removed at any time by the Board of Directors and may resign at any time,
such resignation to be effective when accepted by the Board of Directors. All
vacancies shall be filled by the Board of Directors. The Committee may appoint
from their number such committees, which may include individuals not members of
the Committee, with such powers as they shall determine; may authorize one
(1) or more of their number, or any agent, to execute or deliver any instrument,
or to make any payment in their behalf; and may employ legal counsel (who shall
not be an employee of an Employer Company), actuaries, agents, and such
clerical, accounting and other services as they may require in carrying out the
provisions of the Plan. The Committee shall meet at least once during each
calendar quarter. A majority of the members of the Committee at the time in
office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. All
resolutions or other action taken by the Committee at a meeting shall be by the
vote of the majority of the Committee at any meeting; or without a meeting, by
instrument in writing signed by all of the members of the Committee.

The Committee, acting as agent for the Company, may from time to time appoint
additional named fiduciaries with respect to the Plan for the purpose of
facilitating the investment of Plan’s assets and each named fiduciary appointed
by the Committee shall have such powers, duties, obligations and
responsibilities as the Committee shall prescribe in its appointment.

Section 9.2 Delegation of Specific Responsibilities. The members of the
Committee may agree in a writing signed by each member to allocate to any one of
their number or to other persons (including corporations) any of the
responsibilities with which they are charged pursuant hereto, including the
appointment of an investment manager to manage the investments of the Trust
Fund, provided the responsibilities and duties so delegated are definitively set
forth so that the person to whom the delegation is made is clearly aware of such
duties and responsibilities. If such delegation is made to a person not a member
of the Committee, that person or, in the case of a corporation, its responsible
officer, shall acknowledge the acceptance and understanding of such duties and
responsibilities.

Section 9.3 Power to Establish Regulations. The Committee shall establish rules
and regulations for the administration of the Plan and the Committee. Except as
otherwise herein expressly provided, the Committee shall have the exclusive
right to interpret the Plan and decide any matters arising in the administration
and operation of the Plan, and any interpretations or decisions so made shall be
conclusive and binding on all persons; provided, however, that all such
interpretations and decisions shall be applied in a uniform manner to all
Employees and Participants similarly situated.

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

Section 9.4 Claims Procedure.

 

(a) All claims for benefits hereunder shall be directed to the Committee or to a
member of the Committee designated for that purpose. Within ninety (90) days
following receipt of a claim for benefits (forty-five (45) days in the case of a
claim for a Disability Retirement Benefit made on or after January 1, 2002 and
before January 1, 2003), the UPS Corporate Benefits Department manager
responsible for the day-to-day operation of the Plan (the “Initial Reviewer”)
shall determine whether the claimant is entitled to benefits under the Plan,
unless additional time is required for processing the claim. In this event, the
Initial Reviewer shall, within the initial ninety (90)-day period (forty-five
(45)-day period in the case of a claim for a Disability Retirement Benefit made
on or after January 1, 2002 and before January 1, 2003), notify the claimant
that additional time is needed, explain the reason for the extension, and
indicate when a decision on the claim will be made. In the case of claims other
than for a Disability Retirement Benefit made on or after January 1, 2002 and
before January 1, 2003, the initial decision must be made within 180 days of the
date the claim is filed. In the case of a claim for a Disability Retirement
Benefit made on or after January 1, 2002 and before January 1, 2003, the
forty-five (45)-day period for the initial decision may be extended for up to
thirty (30) additional days, provided the Initial Reviewer determines that the
extension is necessary due to matters beyond the control of the Plan. If prior
to the end of the initial thirty (30)-day extension, the Initial Reviewer
determines that, due to matters beyond the control of the Plan, a decision
cannot be made within the extension period, the period may be further extended
for up to an additional thirty (30) days, provided that the Initial Reviewer
notifies the claimant prior to the expiration of the first thirty (30)-day
extension of the circumstances requiring the extension and the date as of which
the Plan expects to make a decision. For a claim for a Disability Retirement
Benefit made on or after January 1, 2002 and before January 1, 2003, the notice
of extension for a disability retirement benefit claim must specifically explain
the standards on which entitlement to a disability retirement benefit is based,
the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim, and the additional
information needed to resolve those issues. The claimant shall have forty-five
(45) days within which to provide the specified information unless the Initial
Reviewer gives a longer period in the notification of the extension.

 

(b) A denial by the Initial Reviewer of a claim for benefits shall be stated in
writing and delivered or mailed to the claimant. Such notice shall set forth the
specific reasons for the denial, written in a manner calculated to be understood
by the claimant. The notice shall include specific reference to the Plan
provisions on which the denial is based and a description of any additional
material or information necessary to perfect the claim, an explanation of why
this material or information is necessary, and the steps to be taken if the
claimant wishes to submit his claim for review, and effective January 1, 2002, a
description of the Plan’s review procedures, and the time limits applicable to
such procedures, and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action
under ERISA Section 502(a) following an adverse benefit determination upon
review.

 

81

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

(c) In the case of a claim for a Disability Retirement Benefit made on or after
January 1, 2002 and before January 1, 2003, the notice of denial also shall
include the following:

 

  (i) If an internal rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion was
relied upon in making the adverse determination, the notice of denial will
include either a copy of the specific rule, guideline, protocol or other similar
criterion relied upon or a statement that such rule, guideline, protocol or
other similar criterion was relied upon in making the decision and that a copy
of such rule, guideline, protocol or other similar criterion will be provided to
the claimant free of charge upon request.

 

  (ii) If the denial is based on a medical necessity or experimental treatment
or similar exclusion or limit, the notice of denial will include either an
explanation of the scientific or clinical judgment for the determination,
applying the terms of the Plan to the claimant’s medical circumstances, or a
statement that such explanation will be provided free of charge upon request.

 

(d) The Committee shall afford a reasonable opportunity to any claimant whose
request for benefits has been denied for a review of the decision denying the
claim. The review must be requested by written application to the Committee
within sixty (60) days (one hundred eighty (180) days in the case of review of a
disability retirement benefit claim made on or after January 1, 2002 and before
January 1, 2003) following receipt by the claimant of written notification of
denial of his claim. Pursuant to this review, the claimant or his duly
authorized representative may review any documents, records and other
information which are pertinent to the denied claim and submit issues and
comments in writing. Effective January 1, 2002, a claimant may also submit
documents, records and other information relating to his claim, without regard
to whether such information was submitted in connection with his original
benefit claim.

 

(e) In the case of a claim for a Disability Retirement Benefit made on or after
January 1, 2002 and before January 1, 2003, the Committee shall review the
initial decision. In reviewing any denial based in whole or in part on a medical
judgment, the Committee shall consult with a health care professional who has
appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involved in the
medical judgment. The health care professional engaged for this purpose shall be
an individual who is neither an individual who was consulted in connection with
the adverse benefit determination that is the subject of the review, nor the
subordinate of any such individual. The Plan shall provide for the
identification of medical or vocational experts whose advice was obtained on
behalf of the Plan in connection with the initial denial of a claimant’s
disability retirement benefit claim, without regard to whether the advice was
relied upon in making the benefit determination.

 

82

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

(f) A decision on the claimant’s appeal of the denial of benefits (other than
for a disability retirement benefit claim made on or after January 1, 2002 and
before January 1, 2003) shall ordinarily be made by the Committee at the next
regularly scheduled meeting that immediately follows the receipt of the request
for review, unless the request for review is received within 30 days of such
meeting date. In that case, the review will occur at the second regularly
scheduled meeting following the Plan’s receipt of the request for review. If an
extension of time is required because of special circumstances, the Committee
will provide the claimant with written notice of the extension describing the
special circumstances and the date as of which the benefit determination will be
made, prior to the commencement of the extension. A benefit determination will
be made no later than the third regularly scheduled meeting of the Committee
following the Plan’s receipt of the request for review.

In the case of a review of a disability retirement benefit made on or after
January 1, 2002 and before January 1, 2003, a decision shall be made within
forty-five (45) days of the Plan’s receipt of the request for review, unless
additional time is required for a decision on review, in which event the
decision shall be rendered not later than ninety (90) days after receipt of the
request for a ruling. Notice in writing of the extended time required shall be
given to the claimant within forty-five (45) days of his request for review.

The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons
for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant, specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the decision is
based, and effective January 1, 2002, a statement that the claimant or his
authorized personal representative may review any documents and records relevant
to the claim determination, a statement describing further voluntary appeals
procedures, if any, and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring civil
action under ERISA Section 502(a).

 

(g) The foregoing special claims procedures provisions with respect to claims
for a Disability Retirement Benefit made on or after January 1, 2002 and before
January 1, 2003 shall have no effect with respect to claims for such a
Disability Retirement Benefit made on or after January 1, 2003.

Section 9.5 Forfeiture in Case of Unlocatable Participant or Beneficiary. If the
Committee is unable to pay benefits to any Participant or beneficiary who is
entitled to benefits hereunder when such benefits are due because the identity
or whereabouts of such person cannot be ascertained, the Committee shall proceed
as follows:

 

(a) As soon as administratively possible after the Committee has determined that
a Participant or beneficiary cannot be paid due to the circumstances stated
above, the Committee shall submit the last known address, and any other
information the Committee deems appropriate, to a locator service in accordance
with IRS procedures.

 

83

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

(b) If the locator service provides the Committee with a new address for the
Participant or beneficiary, the Committee shall mail the benefit payment to the
new address as soon as administratively possible after such new address is
known. If the locator service fails to identify a new address for the
Participant or beneficiary, all amounts held for his benefit shall be forfeited
as of the last day of the Plan Year in which the locator service notifies the
Committee that it cannot locate the individual. Upon forfeiture, all liability
for payment of the benefit shall thereupon terminate. In any such case, the
funds released as a result of such forfeiture shall be dealt with as provided in
Section 6.3. However, if an individual subsequently makes what the Committee
determines to be a valid and proper claim to the Committee for such amounts, the
account or accounts will be restored and will be distributable without interest
in accordance with the terms of this Plan.

Section 9.6 Liability of the Committee. The Committee and the members thereof,
to the extent of the exercise of their authority, shall discharge their duties
with respect to the Plan solely in the interests of the Plan’s Participants and
their Beneficiaries, and for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits thereto
in accordance with the terms of the Plan and to defray the reasonable
administration expenses thereof. In all such actions or omissions the Committee
and each member thereof shall exercise the care, skill, prudence and diligence
under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent man acting in a like
capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an
enterprise of like character and with like aims; provided, however, that no
member shall be responsible for the actions or omissions of a member or any
other party that is a fiduciary with respect to this Plan, other than himself,
which are not in conformity hereto, unless such member knowingly participates in
or knowingly conceals such conduct which he knows to be in breach of this
standard, his own conduct has enabled the other member or other fiduciary to be
in breach of this standard, or he has knowledge of such breach by another member
or other fiduciary and fails to make reasonable efforts under the circumstances
to remedy such breach.

Section 9.7 Fiduciary Responsibility Insurance; Bonding. If the Employer Company
has not done so, the Committee may direct the purchase of appropriate insurance
on behalf of the Plan and the Plan’s fiduciaries, including the members of the
Committee, to cover liability or losses occurring by reason of the acts or
omissions of a fiduciary; provided, however, that to the extent purchased by the
Plan such insurance must permit recourse by the insurer against the fiduciary in
the case of a breach of a fiduciary duty or obligation by such fiduciary. The
cost of such insurance shall be borne by the Fund, unless the insurance is
provided by and paid for by the Employer Company. The Trustees shall also obtain
a bond covering all the Plan’s fiduciaries, to be paid from the assets of the
Trust Fund.

 

84

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

Section 9.8 Meetings of Committee. The Committee shall hold meetings at least
once during each calendar quarter upon such notice, at such place or places, and
at such time or times as it may determine from time to time. Notice of a meeting
may be waived in writing.

Section 9.9 Compensation of Committee. The members of the Committee may receive
reasonable compensation for their services as the Board of Directors may from
time to time determine. Such compensation and all other expenses of the
Committee, including the compensation of officers, actuaries or counsel, agents
or others that the Committee may employ, shall be paid out of the Trust Fund,
unless paid by the Employer Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
Committee member who is employed on a full-time basis by an Employer Company
shall receive no compensation, but may be reimbursed for expenses incurred.

Section 9.10 Reliance by Committee. Board of Directors and Committee members
shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken or suffered by them in
good faith in reliance upon the advice or opinion of any actuary, accountant,
legal counsel (other than an employee of an Employer Company), or physician, and
all action so taken or suffered shall be conclusive upon all Participants and
beneficiaries, and any other person claiming under the Plan.

Section 9.11 Books and Records. The Committee shall keep appropriate books and
records.

Section 9.12 Disbursements. The Committee shall determine the manner in which
the Trust Fund shall be disbursed under the terms of the Plan and Trust
Agreement.

Section 9.13 Allocation of Responsibility Among Fiduciaries for Plan and Trust
Administration. The fiduciaries hereunder, including the Trustee, the Employer
Companies, the Board of Directors and the Committee, shall have only those
specific powers, duties, responsibilities and obligations as are specifically
given them under this Plan or the Trust Agreement. In general, the Employer
Companies shall have the sole responsibility for making the contributions
necessary to provide benefits under the Plan as specified in Article V, and the
Board of Directors shall have the sole authority to appoint and remove the
Trustee, members of the Committee and to amend or terminate, in whole or in
part, this Plan or the Trust, except as otherwise provided. The Committee shall
have the sole responsibility for the appointment and removal of any Investment
Manager which may be provided for under the Trust and the administration of this
Plan, which responsibility is specifically described in this Plan and the Trust.
Subject to any direction from the Committee, the Trustee shall have the
responsibility for the administration of the Trust and the management of the
assets held under the Trust, all as specifically provided income Trust. Each
fiduciary warrants that any directions given, information furnished, or action
taken by it shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or the Trust,
as the case may be, authorizing or providing for such direction, information or
action. Furthermore, each fiduciary may rely upon any such direction,
information or action of another fiduciary as being proper under this Plan or
the Trust, and is not required under this Plan or the Trust to inquire into the
propriety of any such direction, information or action. It is intended under
this Plan and the Trust that each fiduciary shall be responsible for the proper
exercise of its own powers, duties, responsibilities and obligations under this
Plan and the Trust and shall not be responsible for any act or failure to act of
another fiduciary. No fiduciary guarantees the Trust Fund in any manner against
investment loss or depreciation in asset value.

ARTICLE X

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 10.1 Prohibition Against Attachment.

 

(a) None of the benefits payable hereunder shall be subject to the claims of any
creditor of any Participant or Beneficiary nor shall the same be subject to
attachment, garnishment or other legal or equitable process by any creditor of
the Participant or beneficiary, nor shall any Participant or beneficiary have
any right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber or assign any of
such benefits.

 

(b) If any Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan becomes bankrupt or
attempts to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or
charge any benefit under the Plan, the interest of such person in such benefit
shall, in the discretion of the Committee, cease and terminate, and in that
event the Committee may direct the Trustee to hold or apply the same or any part
thereof to or for the benefit of such Participant or Beneficiary, his Spouse,
Domestic Partner, children, or other dependents, or any of them, in such manner
and in such proportion as the Committee may deem proper.

 

(c) Exception to general prohibition against attachment for Qualified Domestic
Relations Orders.

 

  (i) General rule. The restrictions of subsection (a) and subsection (b) of
this Section 10.1 will not be violated by either (A) the creation of a right to
payments from this Plan by reason of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order or
(B) the making of such payments.

 

  (ii) Definition of Qualified Domestic Relations Order. For purposes of this
subsection (c), the term “Qualified Domestic Relations Order” means any
judgment, decree, or order (including approval of a property settlement
agreement), made pursuant to a State domestic relations law (including a
community property law), which relates to the provision of child support,
alimony payments, or marital property rights to a Spouse, former Spouse, child,
or other dependent of a Participant (an “Alternate Payee”) and which:

 

  (A) creates or recognizes the right of an Alternate Payee to, or assigns to
any Alternate Payee the right to, receive all or a portion of the benefits
payable with respect to a Participant under this Plan;

 

  (B) clearly specifies (i) the name and last known mailing address (if any) of
the Participant and the name and mailing address of each Alternate Payee covered
by the order, (ii) the amount or percentage of the Participant’s benefits to be
paid by the Plan to each Alternate Payee, or the manner in which such amount
or percentage is to be determined, (iii) the number of payments or period to
which such order applies, and (iv) that the order applies to this Plan;

 

86

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

  (C) does not require this Plan to provide any type or form of benefit, or any
option, not otherwise provided under this Plan, unless, in the case of any
payment before a Participant has separated from service, the order requires
payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee (i) on or after the date the
Participant attains (or would have attained) the earliest age on which he could
elect to receive retirement benefits under the Plan, (ii) as if the Participant
had retired on the date such payment is to begin under such order (but taking
into account only the present value of the benefits actually accrued and not
taking into account the present value of any employer subsidy for early
retirement), and (iii) in any form in which such benefits may be paid under the
Plan to the Participant (other than in the form of a joint and survivor annuity
with respect to the Alternate Payee and his subsequent Spouse);

 

  (D) does not require this Plan to provide increased benefits (determined on
the basis of actuarial equivalence); and

 

  (E) does not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee which are
required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under another order previously
determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

Section 10.2 Facility of Payment. If any Participant or Beneficiary shall be
physically or mentally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of any
payment due under the terms of the Plan, the Committee may direct the Trustee to
make any such payment to a legal representative or, if no legal representative
shall have been appointed for him, to any person or institution maintaining such
Participant or beneficiary, and the payment to such person or institution in
good faith shall constitute a valid and complete discharge for such payment.

Section 10.3 Payment to Minor Beneficiary. If the Beneficiary of any Participant
shall be a minor and no guardian shall have been appointed for him, the
Committee may direct the Trustee to retain any payment due under the Plan for
his benefit until he attains majority. Such amount, as authorized by the
Committee, may be held in cash, deposited in bank accounts, or invested or
reinvested in direct obligations of the United States, and the income thereon
may be accumulated and invested, or the income and principal may be expended and
applied directly for the maintenance, education and support of such minor
without the intervention of any guardian and without application to any court.

Section 10.4 No Rights of Employment. The Plan shall not confer upon any
Employee or Participant any right of employment, nor shall any provision of the
Plan interfere with the right of an Employer Company to discharge any Employee.

 

87

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

Section 10.5 Payments Only From Trust Fund. Except as otherwise required by law,
no liability shall attach to the Employer Companies for payment of any benefits
or claims hereunder and every Participant or Beneficiary or person claiming
under them shall have recourse only to the Trust Fund for payment of any benefit
hereunder and the rights of such persons are hereby expressly limited
accordingly.

Section 10.6 Applicable Law. All provisions of the Plan, including definitions,
shall be construed according to the laws of the State of Georgia, except to the
extent preempted by Federal law.

Section 10.7 Titles. Titles of Articles and Sections are inserted for
convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or construction of the Plan.

Section 10.8 Counterparts. This Plan may be executed by the Employer Companies
in various counterparts to this document, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original but all shall be deemed to be one document.

Section 10.9 No Access to Books and Records. Nothing herein or in the Trust
Agreement contained shall give any Participant or Beneficiary or any other
person the right or privilege to examine or have access to the books or records
of any Company or of the Committee or the Trustee; nor shall any such person
have any right, legal or equitable, against any Company or against any director,
officer, employee, agent or representative thereof or against the Trustee or the
Committee, except as herein expressly provided or permitted by law.

Section 10.10 Procedures for Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. The Committee
shall develop and implement procedures (a) for determining whether an order
received by the Plan is a “Qualified Domestic Relations Order” within the
meaning of subsection (c) of Section 10.1, (b) for administering distributions
under such orders, and (c) for holding amounts which would be payable under such
orders pending the determination described in subsection (a) of this
Section 10.10.

Section 10.11 USERRA. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary,
contributions, benefits and service credit with respect to qualified military
service shall be provided in accordance with Section 414(u) of the Code.

of this subsection, but a distribution from a terminated plan shall be
considered a “distribution” for purposes of this subsection if such terminated
plan, had it not been terminated, would have been described in
Section 11.2(c)(i) or (ii).

the five year period ending on the Determination Date, shall not be taken into
account. In the case of a distribution made for a reason other than a
termination of employment, death or disability, this subsection shall be applied
by substituting “five-year period” for “one-year period”.

 

  (ii) For Plan Years beginning on or before December 31, 2001, the sum of the
present values of all accrued benefits plus the sum of distributions made with
respect to such benefits during the five-year period ending on the Determination

was a Key Employee in a prior Plan Year but is no longer a Key Employee, and
(3) any accrued benefits attributable to deductible employee contributions, and
(4) the accrued benefit of any individual who has not received any compensation
from the Employer Company (other than benefits under any plan maintained by the
Employer Company) during the five year period ending on the Determination Date,
shall not be taken into account.

A transfer from one plan of the Employer Company to any other such plan shall be
considered neither a “distribution” nor a “rollover contribution” for purposes
of this subsection, but a distribution from a terminated plan shall be
considered a “distribution for purposes of this subsection if such terminated
plan, had it not been terminated, would have been described in
Section 11.2(c)(i) or (ii).

 

(h) “Total Benefit” is the sum of the Account Aggregate of all plans within an
Aggregation Group which are defined contribution plans, and the Cumulative
Accrued Benefit of all plans within an Aggregation Group which are defined
benefit plans.

Solely for the purpose of determining if the Plan, or any other plan included in
a required aggregation group of which this Plan is a part, is Top-Heavy, the
accrued benefit of an Employee other than a Key Employee shall be determined
under (a) the method, if any, that uniformly applies for accrual purposes under
all plans maintained by the Employer, or (b) if there is no such method, as if
such benefit accrued not more rapidly than the slowest accrual rate permitted
under the fractional accrual rate of Section 411(b)(1)(C) of the Code.

 

  (i) “Total Compensation” is the Participant’s compensation as defined in

1984.

is a Top-Heavy Plan, the vesting schedule provided in this Section 11.3 (the
“Top-Heavy Vesting Schedule”) shall apply, and for each Plan Year thereafter for

average compensation during the Testing Period and (b) the lesser of (1) 2%
multiplied by the number of the Participant’s Years of Service with the Employer
Company or (2) 20%. For purposes of this Section 11.4, a “Year of Service” shall

compensation, or (b) if a different amount has been fixed by the Secretary of
the Treasury pursuant to Section 416(d)(2) of the Code, such amount. The limit
set by this Section shall be imposed after any reduction imposed elsewhere in
this Plan on the compensation of a Participant which is taken into account for
purposes of determining contributions and benefits.

 

93

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

Section 11.6 Top-Heavy Adjustment to Section 415 Limitations. For each Plan Year
for which the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan prior to January 1, 2000, the limit
imposed by Section 5.8(b)(2) shall be applied by substituting “1.0” for “1.25”
in each place where it appears, unless the Employer Company elects to make, and
does make, additional contributions sufficient to meet the requirements
specified in subsection (b) hereof. Such election shall only be effective for
those Plan Years in which:

 

(a) the Plan would not be a Top-Heavy Plan as defined in Section 11.2(a), above,
if “ninety percent” were substituted for “sixty percent” in Section 11.2(a)(ii)
and Section 11.2(d), and

 

(b) with respect to each plan described in Section 11.2(c)(i) or (ii): (1) the

ARTICLE XII

RETIREE MEDICAL BENEFITS

Section 12.1 Creation of Separate Account.

 

(a) There is created, established and maintained under this Plan a separate
account known as the Medical Benefits Account. The Trustee and Administrative
Committee agree to hold and administer the Medical Benefits Account, and to
receive contributions hereto, for the purpose of providing for the payment of
certain medical expenses pursuant to Section 401(h) of the Code, for Retired
Participants, within the meaning of Section 12.2(d), and their Covered
Dependents. The separate Account shall be for record keeping purposes only.
Funds contributed to the Medical Benefits Account need not be invested
separately and may be invested in the Committee’s discretion with funds in the
funding standard account without identification of which investment properties
are allocable to each account. However, where the investment properties are not
allocated to each account, the earnings on such properties must be allocated
between each account in a reasonable manner.

 

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

 

  (ii) Any amounts in the Medical Benefits Account which remain in such account
following the satisfaction of all liabilities for the payment of Medical
Benefits arising under this Article shall be returned to the Employer Companies.

 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a separate Medical Benefit Account shall be
maintained for any Medical Benefits payable to a Five-Percent Owner, as defined
in Section 5.9(d) or his Covered Dependents. Medical Benefits for such
Five-Percent Owner or his Covered Dependents shall be paid only from such
account. This paragraph shall apply to all Five-Percent Owners who were such at
any time during the plan year or during any preceding plan year in which
contributions were made on his behalf.

Section 12.2 Definitions. Whenever used in this Article XII, and in the Medical
Benefits Schedule attached to and made a part of this Article, the following
words shall have the meaning set forth below unless otherwise clearly required

(a) “Covered Dependent” means a Retired Participant’s Spouse or Domestic Partner

Participant), and a child of the Retired Participant who meets the following
conditions:

 

  (i) The child is unmarried, is the child of a Retired Participant, or the
Retired Participant’s Spouse, and is under 19 years of age. Said child shall be
covered up to the end of the calendar year in which he attains age 19.

 

  (ii) The child is unmarried, is the child of a Retired Participant, or the

maintenance.

In no event will the term Covered Dependent include any person who is an
eligible Retired Participant himself or herself nor any person who is employed
full-time with an Employer Company. If both parents of any Covered Dependent

the Covered Dependent child is considered as a Covered Dependent of only the
Participant whose birth date is the earlier in the calendar year.

 

(b) “Medical Benefits” means the payment of sickness, accident, hospitalization
and other Medical Expenses, within the meaning of Section 401(h) of the Code,

than One Year of Service as a Participant in this Plan;

 

  (C)

An individual employed, at the time of his retirement, by an Employer Company
pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement under which retirement benefits
for the individual are to be provided under this Plan, but which does not
specifically state that Medical Benefits are also to be provided for said
individual under this Article XII. For clarification, a member of one of the

(a) Medical Benefits shall begin to be paid with respect to claims incurred by
Retired Participants, or their Covered Dependents, after the date on which
coverage for medical expenses ends for such individuals under the UPS Insurance
Plan (or any successor health plan covering active Employees). Thereafter, and
subject to subsections (b) and (c) below, Medical Benefits shall continue to be
paid with respect to claims incurred up until the end of the calendar month in
which the first of the following occurs:

 

  (i) In the case of a Retired Participant, his death or;

 

  (ii) In the case of a Covered Dependent who is the Spouse of the Retired
Participant, the first to occur of (A) the divorce or legal separation of the
Retired Participant and Spouse, (B) the remarriage of the Spouse following the
Retired Participant’s death, (C) the date upon which, following the Retired
Participant’s death, the Spouse becomes eligible for coverage under any other
group health plan as the result of his employment, or (D) the death of the
Spouse;

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (a), in the event that a
Participant Contribution, as described in Section 12.10, is required to be paid
with respect to Medical Benefits for any Retired Participant or Covered
Dependent, payment of Medical Benefits shall cease to be made with respect to
claims incurred by such individuals during any calendar month for which a
Participant Contribution is due but is not timely paid. A Retired Participant
may elect to discontinue Medical Benefits for his Covered Dependents (in favor
of no or a reduced level of benefits as may be permitted from time to time by
the Committee) by filing a form for this purpose with the Committee or its
designee, and by providing such other information as the Committee or its
designee shall require. In such event, payment of Medical Benefits shall cease
to be made with respect to claims incurred by such Covered Dependents after the
effective date of the discontinuance of coverage, or in the case of the election
of a reduced level of benefits, when the applicable limitations with respect to
such reduced benefit level have been exceeded or the Retired Participant (or
Covered Dependent) ceases to pay any required Participant Contribution necessary
to sustain the benefit level elected. The Committee may establish procedures for
permitting Covered Dependents for whom Medical Benefits have been discontinued
to later resume coverage, but only upon the provision of evidence satisfactory
to the Committee of medical insurability.

 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 12.2(a), in certain circumstances and
for a limited period of time, commencing on and after January 1, 1987, a Covered
Dependent who would otherwise be ineligible for Medical Benefits under this
Article due to the death or divorce of the Retired Participant, or who is no
longer a Covered Dependent as defined in paragraphs (a)(i) or (ii) of
Section 12.2, shall be entitled to elect to continue to be eligible for such
Medical Benefits (“Continuation Coverage”) upon the occurrence of the following
Qualifying Events:

 

  (i) In the event of the death of the Retired Participant, a Covered Dependent
may elect to continue to be eligible for Medical Benefits for a period not to
exceed 36 months following the Retired Participant’s death, subject to the
restrictions of subparagraph (iv).

 

  (ii) In the event of the divorce of a Retired Participant from his Spouse,
such Spouse may elect to continue to be eligible for Medical Benefits for a

Benefits for a period not to exceed 36 months following such date, subject to
the restrictions of subparagraph (iv).

  (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii),
Continuation Coverage for a Covered Dependent shall cease upon the first to

otherwise) under any other group health plan which does not contain any
exclusion or limitation with respect to any preexisting condition of such
individual.

 

  (B) The date that such Covered Dependent becomes entitled to receive Medicare
benefits under Title XVIII of the Social Security Act.

 

  (C) The date upon which this Plan ceases to provide retiree medical benefits
to any Retired Participant and his Covered Dependents, and the Employer
Companies do not provide such benefits through another funding vehicle or group
health plan or plans.

 

  (D) The date upon which coverage ceases as a result of the Covered Dependent
failing to make timely payment of the premium required pursuant to paragraph
(d) of this Section.

 

(d) The Committee shall require the payment of a premium by a Covered Dependent
for any period of Continuation Coverage, subject to the following restrictions:

 

  (i) The decision to require payment of a premium, and the amount of such
premium, shall be applied consistently to all Covered Dependents of Retired
Participants similarly situated;

 

  (ii) The premium shall not exceed 102 percent of the “applicable premium” for
such period, as that term is defined in ERISA Section 604; and

 

  (iii) The premium may, at the election of the Covered Dependent, be made in
monthly installments.

If an election by a Covered Dependent to receive Continuation Coverage is made
after the occurrence of the Qualifying Event, the Covered Dependent shall be
permitted to pay for Continuation Coverage during the period preceding the
election, such payment to be made within 45 days of the date of the election.

 

(e) (i) The Committee, or its delegate, shall inform each Retired Participant
and his Spouse (if any) of the rights provided under this Section 12.3, at the
time of commencement of coverage under this Article or as otherwise provided by
law.

after the Committee, or its delegate, is notified of the occurrence of a
Qualifying Event as set forth in paragraph

 

100

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

 

(c). Notification to a Covered Dependent who is the Spouse of the Retired
Participant shall be treated as notification to all other Covered Dependents who

except those relating to (i) Continuation Coverage provided for in Section 12.3
hereof and (ii) that portion of coverage with respect to which Participant
Contributions are required as provided for in Section 12.10 hereof. Subject to
the restrictions of this Section 12.4 and Sections 12.5, and taking into account
Participant Contributions and contributions for Continuation Coverage, the
Employer Companies shall contribute to the Medical Benefits Account an annual
amount which is reasonably estimated to cover the total cost of the Medical
Benefits to be provided hereunder and which satisfies the general requirements
applicable to deductions allowable under Section 404 of the Code (as set forth
in Treasury Regulation § 1.404(a)-1). The total cost of providing Medical
Benefits shall be determined in accordance with any generally accepted actuarial
method which is reasonable in view of the provisions and coverage of the Plan,
the funding medium, and other applicable considerations. The amount deductible
by each Employer Company on account of such contributions for any taxable year
shall not exceed the greater of:

and current service credits as a level amount, or as a level percentage of
compensation, over the remaining future service of each Participant employed by
the Employer Company.

 

(b) 10 percent of the cost which would be required to completely fund or
purchase Medical Benefits provided hereunder for the Participants employed by
the Employer Company and their Covered Dependents.

In determining the amount deductible, an Employer Company must apply either
paragraph (a) for all Participants or paragraph (b) for all Participants. If
contributions paid by an Employer Company in a taxable year to fund Medical
Benefits hereunder exceed the limitation of this Section, but otherwise satisfy
the conditions for deduction under Section 404 of the Code, then the excess
contributions may be carried over in accordance with the provisions of Treasury
Regulation § 1.404(a)(3)(f) and be deducted in a later year. For the purpose of
applying paragraph (a), if the remaining future service of a Participant is one
year or less, it shall be treated as one year.

 

101

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

Section 12.5 Subordination to Retirement Benefits.

 

(a) It is intended that the Medical Benefits provided under this Article, when
added to any Life Insurance Protection provided under this Plan be subordinate
at all times to the retirement benefits provided under this Plan. Therefore, the
aggregate of contributions (made after the effective date of this Article XII)
for the funding of Medical Benefits pursuant to this Article XII, as well as any
Life Insurance Protection, shall at no time exceed 25 percent of the aggregate
contributions (made after such effective date) other than contributions to fund
past service credits.

 

(b) For purposes of this Section, “Life Insurance Protection” means any benefit
paid under the Plan on behalf of a Participant as a result of the Participant’s
death to the extent such payment exceeds the amount of the reserve to provide
the retirement benefits for such Participant existing at his death.

Section 12.6 Forfeitures. In the event that a Participant’s interest in the
Medical Benefits Account is forfeited prior to termination of such account, an
amount equal to the amount of the forfeiture must be applied as soon as possible
to reduce Employer contributions to fund the Medical Benefits provided under
this Article.

Section 12.7 Benefits Provision. The benefits payable pursuant to this Article
shall be limited to the payment of Medical Benefits for Retired Participants and
their Covered Dependents. No benefit shall be provided which is not described in
Section 401(h) of the Internal Revenue Code or the Regulations thereunder. It is
anticipated that the same level of Medical Benefits shall be provided to all
eligible Retired Participants, and in any event the Medical Benefits provided
under this Article and the Employer contributions to fund said Benefits shall
not discriminate in favor of the officers, shareholders, supervisory employees,
or highly compensated employees of the Employer Companies within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation § 1.401.14. The specific Medical Benefits payable shall be
as described in the Medical Benefits Schedule attached to and made a part of
this Article, which may be amended from time to time by action of the Board of
Directors, consistent with the terms of this Article.

Section 12.8 Supervision of Account. The Administrative Committee shall have
general supervision of the operation of the Medical Benefits Account and shall
conduct the business of said Account, including the administration of claims, in
accordance with Article IX and the other provisions of this Plan, except as
otherwise provided in this Article, or in accordance with applicable law.

Section 12.9 Coordination with Employer-Maintained Group Medical Insurance for
Active Participants and their Covered Dependents. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Article, if a Retired Participant, or his Covered Dependent,
is eligible for Medical Benefits under this Article and also eligible for
medical benefits under another group medical insurance plan sponsored and
maintained by an Employer Company for active employees and their covered
dependents (for example, the UPS Insurance Plan) (“Alternate Plan”), then no
Medical Benefits under this Article shall be paid. Payment of Medical Benefit
under this Article shall commence on the day following the day eligibility for
benefits under the Alternate Plan ceases.

 

102

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

Section 12.10 Participant Contributions.

 

(a) The Committee may, from time to time, require Retired Participants and
Covered Dependents to pay a portion of the cost of Medical Benefits as an annual
contribution (a “Participant Contribution”), and shall in such event establish
objective procedures for determining the amount and payment of Participant
Contributions.

 

(b) Effective for individuals who first become Retired Participants on or after
January 1, 1993, and their Covered Dependents, an annual Participant
Contribution shall be required in an amount equal to:

 

  (i) the projected per-capita cost of providing Medical Benefits for Retired
Participants and/or Covered Dependents, or specified classes thereof, for the
Plan Year, as determined by the Committee in accordance with such reasonable
nondiscriminatory procedures as it shall adopt from time to time; over

 

  (ii) the Retired Participant’s Defined Dollar Benefit (“DDB”) balance, as
described in subsection (c) or (d) below.

 

(c) Subject to the rules of this Section 12.10(c), a Retired Participant will
earn a DDB amount for each Year of Service with an Employer Company which will
be applied to purchase Medical Benefits before the Retired Participant or his
Covered Dependents become eligible for Medicare (“Pre-Medicare Eligible
Coverage”) and after the Retired Participant or his Covered Dependents become
eligible for Medicare (“Medicare Eligible Coverage”). The DDB amount earned for
each Year of Service with an Employer Company will be accumulated over the
period that the Retired Participant is employed with an Employer Company as a
DDB balance (the “Pre-Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB Balance” and “Medicare
Eligible Coverage DDB Balance,” collectively, the “DDB Balance”).

 

(d)

A Retired Participant’s DDB amount for any Year of Service after December 31,
2000 with an Employer Company will be equal to the DDB amount for the Employer
Company for which the Retired Participant performed service during that Plan
Year as set forth in Appendix F. If a Retired Participant performs service under
more than one schedule in any Plan Year, the Retired Participant shall receive
credit for his Year of Service, if any, completed in that Plan Year under the
schedule with the highest DDB amount under which he has at least one Hour of
Service. The DDB amount for each Year of Service with an Employer Company while
it is an Employer Company completed prior January 1, 2001 shall be equal to $250
for Pre-Medicare Eligible Coverage and $42 for Medicare Eligible Coverage.
However, except as provided in Appendix F, no DDB amount shall be earned for
Years of Service with an Employer Company that first becomes an Employer Company
on or after January 1, 2001 before that Employer Company first began to offer
Medical Benefits under this Plan. Except as

 

103

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

 

provided Section 12.10(d)(ii), in no event shall the Pre-Medicare Eligible
Coverage DDB Balance exceed $7500 or the Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB Balance
exceed $1260. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Grandfathered Retired
Participant’s DDB amount for any Year of Service (up to a maximum of $7,500)
with an Employer Company shall never be less than $250 for Pre-Medicare Eligible
Coverage and $42 for Medicare Eligible Coverage.

 

(e) The Retired Participant and his Spouse or Domestic Partner each may apply
the DDB Balance to purchase Medical Benefits. If the Retired Participant has
Covered Dependents who are children, they will be treated as a unit with the
younger of the Retired Participant and his Spouse. If the Retired Participant
does not have a Spouse or Domestic Partner, the Covered Dependents who are
children will be treated as a separate unit and the Retired Participant and his
Covered Dependent unit each may apply the DDB Balance to purchase Pre-Medicare
Eligible Coverage or Medicare Eligible Coverage. Any unused DDB Balance may not
be carried forward from one Plan Year to a future Plan Year.

 

(f) The Pre-Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB Balance is applied to the Participant
Contribution for each Plan Year (or portion thereof) prior to the calendar month
in which the Retired Participant or his Spouse or Domestic Partner, as
applicable, becomes eligible for Medicare. The Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB
Balance is applied to the Participant Contribution for each Plan Year (or
portion thereof) from the first day of the calendar month in which the Retired
Participant or his Spouse or Domestic Partner, as applicable, becomes eligible
for Medicare. The DDB Balance of a Covered Dependent who is not a Spouse or
Domestic Partner will be adjusted to the Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB Balance
as of the first day of the calendar month in which the younger parent first
becomes eligible for Medicare or if there is no Spouse or Domestic Partner, as
of the first day of the calendar month in which the Retired Participant first
becomes eligible for Medicare.

 

(g) The DDB Balance credited to a Retired Participant is determined as follows:

 

  (i) For a Retired Participant who did not complete at least one Year of
Service with an Employer Company prior to 1993, the DDB Balance is the sum of
the DDB amounts for each of the Retired Participant’s Years of Service with an
Employer Company as determined under Section 12.10(c)(ii).

 

  (ii) For each Grandfathered Retired Participant who completed at least one
Year of Service with an Employer Company prior to 1993, the DDB Balance is
calculated as follows:

 

  (A) The sum of the DDB amounts for each of his Years of Service with an
Employer Company as determined under Section 12.10(c) subject to the maximum DDB
balance thereunder plus

 

104

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

  (B) Two times the DDB amount for each of his Years of Service with an Employer
Company completed prior to January 1, 1993 (up to a maximum of $15,000 for
Pre-Medicare Eligible Coverage and $2520 for Medicare Eligible Coverage).

 

  (iii) As a minimum, each Grandfathered Retired Participant described in
Section 12.10(d)(ii) shall be credited with a minimum DDB Balance in accordance
with the following table:

 

Age at Retirement from
Employment with the
Employer Company

   Pre-Medicare Eligible    Minimum DDB
Amount Medicare

65 or older

   $ 7500    $ 1260

   $ 5500    $ 924

56

   $ 5250    $ 882

55

   $ 5000    $ 840

 

(h) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 12.10,

 

  (i) a Retired Participant hired by an Employer Company or a Related Employer
on or after January 1, 2006 shall not earn a DDB amount;

 

  (ii) A Retired Participant hired by Overnite or by Motor Cargo after
December 31, 2001 shall not earn a DDB amount;

 

  (iii) an LTD Participant or a Participant receiving a Disability Retirement
Benefit shall not earn Year of Service credit or a DDB amount while he is a LTD
Participant or is receiving a Disability Retirement Benefit; and

 

  (iv) an individual shall not earn a DDB amount while he is performing services
for an Employer Company or a Related Employer, as a “leased employee” or who
otherwise is not classified on the payroll as an employee of an Employer Company
or a Related Employer regardless of whether he is reclassified as an employee.

ARTICLE XIII

SPECIAL BENEFITS UPON VOLUNTARY TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

Section 13.1 Special Early Retirement. A Participant (other than an Employee
subject to a collective bargaining agreement and participating in this Plan,
except to the extent so provided in the applicable collective bargaining
agreement), who is actively employed by an Employer Company as of June 15, 1995,
and who has not otherwise attained his Early Retirement Date shall be eligible
to retire under the Early Retirement Benefit provisions of Section 4.3 and
receive an Early Retirement Benefit in an amount determined under
subsection 5.2(b)(ii)(C)(4) and (5) (except that for this purpose,
subsection 5.2(b)(ii)(C)(4) and (5) shall be modified to provide that the
reduction factor shall apply with respect to each month or partial month by
which the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date precedes his 55th birthday),
provided that each of the following conditions is satisfied:

 

(a) Eligibility Requirements. The Participant is assigned a salary grade below
Grade 26 and has, prior to August 15, 1995, both attained age 50, and either
(i) in the case of a Participant who is a “Highly Compensated Employee” (within
the meaning of Code Section 414(q)), was hired by an Employer Company on or
before August 15, 1975, or (ii) in the case of a Participant who is not a
“Highly Compensated Employee,” has completed at least five (5) Years of Service.

 

(b) Election Requirements. An eligible Participant described in
subsection 13.1(a) above must elect to retire and execute any related forms,
releases or waivers prescribed for this purpose by the Company, during the
period commencing on June 15, 1995, and ending on August 15, 1995. Any
Participant who makes such an election must actually retire by September 1,
1995, unless an extension for a specified number of days is requested by his
Employer Company.

 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following employees shall be eligible for
the Special Early Retirement benefit described in this Section 13.1:

 

  (i) employees of Roadnet Technologies, Inc. who were terminated as a result of
the reduction in force occurring on March 1, 1995 and who satisfied the

  (ii) employees of II Morrow, Inc. who were terminated as a result of the
reduction in force occurring on February 2, 1995 and who satisfied the
requirements of Section 13.1(a) as of February 2, 1995.

Section 13.2 Supplemental Retirement Benefit. A Participant (other than an
Employee subject to a collective bargaining agreement and participating in this
Plan, except to the extent so provided in the applicable collective bargaining
agreement), who is actively employed by an Employer Company as of June 15, 1995,
shall be eligible to receive a supplemental retirement benefit under the Plan
following his retirement or termination of employment, provided that each of the
following conditions is satisfied:

 

(a) Eligibility Requirements. The Participant is assigned a salary grade below
Grade 26 and is either (i) eligible to retire under the provisions of
Section 4.2, 4.3 or 13.1 of the Plan, or (ii) a full-time management Employee
who is employed at any division, unit, operation or facility of an Employer
Company other than Region 22, including all districts therein, (Air Operations)
or Region 20 - District 29 (Information Services, New Jersey).

 

106

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

(b) Election Requirements. An eligible Participant described in
subsection 13.2(a) above must elect to retire or voluntarily terminate
employment and execute any related forms, releases or waivers prescribed for
this purpose by the Company, during the period commencing on June 15, 1995, and
ending on August 15, 1995. Any Participant who makes such an election must
actually retire or terminate by September 1, 1995, unless an extension for a
specified number of days is requested by his Employer Company.

 

(c) Amount of Benefit. Any eligible Participant who satisfies the election
requirements of subsection 13.2(b) above, shall be entitled to receive a
supplemental retirement benefit at his Normal Retirement Date, the amount of
which shall be determined as follows:

 

  (i) First, a weekly rate of basic salary or wages shall be determined based
upon the rate of basic salary or the hourly wage rate in effect on the last day
of the Participant’s active employment. Such weekly rate of basic salary for a
salaried Participant shall equal basic monthly salary divided by 4.33. Such
weekly rate of basic wages for a Participant who is an hourly-paid Employee
shall equal the product of the basic hourly wage rate and forty (40) hours, if
the Participant is a full-time Employee, or twenty (20) hours if the Participant
is a part-time Employee. For purposes of the foregoing, a part-time employee
shall be defined to include those employees with an employment code of “I,” “E”
or “D” as of June 15, 1995.

 

  (ii) Second, the Participant’s weekly rate of basic salary or wages shall be
multiplied by the number of weeks with which he is credited as follows:

 

  (A) Base Credit. Each eligible Participant shall receive 4.33 weeks of credit,
regardless of his length of service.

 

  (B) Additional Credit. In addition, each eligible Participant shall be
credited with two (2) weeks for each full year of employment by an Employer
Company, measured by each twelve (12) month anniversary date from date of hire,
and excluding any fractional year, up to a maximum of forty (40) weeks of such
additional credit.

 

107

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

  (iii) Third, for eligible Participants who are covered by the UPS Managers
Incentive Plan, an amount equal to the product of (i) and (ii), where (i) is the
product of (A) the eligible Participants weekly rate of basic salary or wages,
(B) 4.33 and (C) 1.25 and (ii) is a fraction, the numerator of which is eight
(8) and the denominator of which is twelve (12).

 

  (iv) Fourth, the sum of the amounts described in subsection 13.2(c)(ii) and
(iii) above shall be increased each year by the percentage rate(s) of interest
described in subsection 5.7(c), from the first day of the month following the
last day on which the Participant was actively employed until his Normal
Retirement Date.

 

  (v) Fifth, the lump sum amount described in subsection 13.2(c)(iv) above shall
be converted to a Single Life Only Annuity using, for conversion purposes, the
1971 Towers, Perrin, Forster and Crosby Forecast Morality Table and the interest
rate(s) described in subsection 5.7(c), provided, however, that for participants
whose distributions commence on or before December 31, 1995, the interest rate
will be the greater of the interest rate set forth in subsection 5.7(c) or such
rate as was in effect as of January 1, 1995. Such Single Life Only Annuity
(consisting of monthly payments commencing at Normal Retirement Date) shall
hereafter be referred to as the “Supplemental Retirement Benefit.”

 

(d) Form of Benefit. If an eligible Participant is not married as of his
Supplemental Retirement Benefit commencement date, the normal form of payment of
such benefit will be a Single Life Only Annuity, commencing on his Normal
Retirement Date. If an eligible Participant is married as of his Supplemental
Retirement Benefit commencement date, the Normal Form of payment of his
Supplemental Retirement Benefit will be a Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit,
commencing on his Normal Retirement Date, and the amount of his monthly
Supplemental Retirement Benefit will be reduced in the manner described in
subsection 1.1(b).

 

(e)

Alternate Benefit Elections. Each eligible Participant may elect, subject to the
spousal consent provisions contained in Section 5.4(b), either (i) to receive
his Supplemental Retirement Benefit in any of the forms permitted under Article
V as soon as practicable following his termination of employment or as of an
Early or Normal Retirement Date, if later, or (ii) in the form of an immediate
single lump sum payment equal to the greater of (A) the actuarial equivalent
present value of the monthly Supplemental Retirement Benefit, or (B) the sum of
the amounts described in subsection 13.2(c)(ii) and (iii) above. (For purposes
of the preceding sentence, actuarial equivalence will be determined by use of
the mortality table referenced in Section 13.2(c)(v) and the rate(s) of interest
described in subsection 5.7(c), provided, however, that for participants whose
distributions commence on or before December 31, 1995, the interest rate will be
the greater of the interest rate set forth in subsection 5.7(c) or such rate as
was in effect as of January 1, 1995).

 

108

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

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that an eligible Participant’s
Supplemental Retirement Benefit is to be paid as an annuity, the actual form of
annuity payment shall be that form which is in effect for the payment of the
eligible Participant’s Normal or Early Retirement Benefit, if any.

Section 13.3 Legal Compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the eligibility of
Participants who are “Highly Compensated Employees” (within the meaning of Code
Section 414(q)) for the special benefits provided under this Article XIII
(and/or the amount of such benefits) shall be limited to the extent required to
satisfy the applicable nondiscrimination requirements of the Code.

Plan; however, for a Grandfathered OPL Participant who completes an Hour of
Service as an Employee on or after March 1, 2002 determined without regard to
this Section, Compensation shall also include remuneration actually paid by OPL
to such Grandfathered OPL Participant for the applicable year to the extent such
remuneration was included as “compensation” under the OPL Plan.

was included as an “hour of service” under the OPL Plan.

 

133

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

Solely for purposes of entitlement to retiree medical benefits under Article XII
of the Plan, including the determination of whether such Grandfathered OPL

Participant shall be deemed to have an Hour of Service for each “hour of
service” he was credited with under the OPL Plan.

 

(e) “OPL” means the Overseas Partners Ltd, Overseas Partners Capital Corporation

Participant’s years of “benefit service” under the OPL Plan on February 28,
2002.

 

  (i) OPL Minimum Accrued Benefit. The OPL Minimum Accrued Benefit of a
Grandfathered OPL Participant is set forth in Section 4(a) above, which is the

Normal Retirement Age in the Normal Form determined as if such Grandfathered OPL
Participant had terminated employment with UPS and OPL on the earlier of

percent for each year the Spouse’s or beneficiary’s age is greater (or less)
than the Participant’s age, with no minimum but to a maximum of 99 percent.

 

135

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

with respect to the Single Life Annuity with 120-Month Guarantee, 95 percent of
the Participant’s monthly benefit payable in the Normal Form.

Section 5.3 of the Plan, a Grandfathered OPL Participant, upon the termination
of the UPS Retirement Plan, shall have the option to receive the Present Value
of the Grandfathered OPL Participant’s accrued benefit in the OPL Plan defined
in Section 4(b)(i) determined as if such Grandfathered OPL Participant had
terminated employment with UPS and OPL on the earlier of February 28, 2002 or
the date he last actually terminated employment with UPS and OPL in a single
cash lump sum payment or an immediate annuity which shall be the Actuarial
Equivalent value of the benefit defined in Section 4(b)(i) determined as

determined (without regard to any other subparagraph of Section 807(d)(5) of the
Code) and, for benefits paid on or before March 31, 2003, the annual rate of
interest on 30 year Treasury securities for the month before the date of
distribution or the Applicable Interest Rate, whichever rate produces the
greater amount, and, for benefits paid on and after April 1, 2003, the
Applicable Interest Rate.

AMOUNT AND PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Minimum Accrued Benefit. Notwithstanding any provision in this Appendix or the
main text of Plan to the contrary, but taking into account the break in service
rules in Article IX of the Overnite Plan:

 

  (a) the Accrued Benefit of a Grandfathered Overnite Participant who was an
Active Participant on December 31, 1988 shall not be less than his accrued
benefit, determined as of December 31, 1988 under the terms of the Overnite Plan
as in effect through December 31, 1988;

 

  (b) the Accrued Benefit of a Grandfathered Overnite Participant who was an
Active Participant on December 31, 1993 shall not be less than his accrued
benefit, determined as of December 31, 1993 under the terms of the Overnite Plan
as in effect through December 31, 1993; and

 

  (c) the Accrued Benefit of a Grandfathered Overnite Participant shall not be
less than his “accrued benefit” determined as of December 31, 2005 under the
terms of the Overnite Plan as if he had had a termination of employment on such
date.

Benefit Offset. The Overnite Plan required the benefit payable from such plan be
offset by any benefit payable from another qualified defined benefit plan if the
same service performed by the Participant is recognized as “benefit service” in
both plans. If such benefit offset has been communicated to an affected
Participant prior to the merger of the Overnite Plan into this Plan, the amount
of the offset shall remain as calculated under the Overnite Plan. If the benefit
offset amount has not been communicated to the Participant, the offset shall be
calculated as determined in the Overnite Plan.

Optional Lump Sum Form of Benefit Payment. If a Grandfathered Overnite
Participant had a Termination of employment with Overnite on or after March 28,
2005 but prior to January 1, 2006, such Grandfathered Overnite Participant may
elect to receive his Accrued Benefit payable under Section 5.4(e) in a cash lump
sum as soon as practicable after his termination of employment if the Present
Value of such benefit is at least $1,000 but does not exceed $5,000.

 

139

Repayment of Lump Sum Distribution. An individual who received a lump sum
distribution of his entire accrued benefit from the Overnite Plan prior to
January 1, 2006 and is re-employed by an Employer Company on or after January 1,
2006 has the right to repay the Trustee the lump sum distribution he received,
in accordance with Section 5.4(f) of the main text of the Plan provided his
repayment right has not expired.

Disability Retirement Benefit. The Disability Retirement Benefit described in
this Appendix shall apply only to an Overnite Participant who is determined to
be Totally Disabled (as defined in this Appendix) as of any date prior to
July 1, 2006. The Disability Retirement Benefit described in Section 5.5 of the
main text of the Plan shall apply to any Overnite Participant who is determined
to be Totally Disabled (as defined in Article I of the main text of the Plan) as
of any date on or after July 1, 2006.

 

  (1) Each Overnite Participant who has a Disability Retirement Date shall be
entitled to an immediate disability benefit commencing on the first day of the
month coincident with or next following his Disability Retirement Date and
ending on the date he ceases to be a Disabled Participant. Except to the extent
the Disabled Participant is eligible for and elects to receive an Early
Retirement Benefit in the interim, no Disability Retirement Benefit shall be
paid to a Disabled Participant under this Appendix pending determination of the
Total Disability by the Social Security Administration; provided, however, that
the first payment made to a Disabled Participant under this Appendix following
such determination of Total Disability shall include all amounts due the
Disabled Participant for the period between the Disability Retirement Date and
the date of the first payment.

 

  (2) A Disabled Participant shall cease to be such if and when:

 

  (i) he reaches Normal Retirement Date;

 

  (ii) he ceases to suffer from Total Disability; or

 

  (iii) he dies.

When a Disabled Participant ceases to be such his current Disability Retirement
Benefit (including any survivor benefit attributable to the elected form of
payment) shall end, and (i) if he ceases to be a Disabled Participant because he
ceases to suffer from a Total Disability prior to his Normal Retirement Date, he
shall be entitled to a benefit under the provisions of the main text of the Plan
or this Appendix, applied on the basis of his termination of employment due to
his Total Disability and determined using his Final Average Compensation and
actual years of Benefit Service as of such separation date, (ii) if he ceases to
be a Disabled Participant on his Normal Retirement Date, he shall be entitled to
the benefit described in Section (4) below, or (iii) if he ceases to be a
Disabled Participant due to his death, death benefits shall be payable to his
surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner, the monthly periodic payments under which
shall equal the amount which would be payable under the survivor benefit portion
of the qualified joint and survivor annuity (as defined in the Overnite Plan),
if the Overnite Participant had:

 

140

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

  (i) a termination of employment on the date of his death (and did not
thereafter return to service) or on the date of his actual termination of
employment, if earlier;

 

  (ii) survived and retired with an immediate qualified joint and survivor
annuity on the Annuity Starting Date elected by the Spouse, and

 

  (iii) died the following day.

 

  (3) The immediate Disability Retirement Benefit payable to a Disabled
Participant under this Appendix shall be an annual benefit, payable monthly in a
Single Life Only Annuity equal to the Participant’s Accrued Benefit determined
using his Final Average Compensation as of his Disability Retirement Date and
the number of years of Benefit Service (to a maximum of 30 years) the
Participant would have had had he remained an Employee of an Employer Company
until his Normal Retirement Date, without reduction for early commencement.
Alternatively, a Disabled Participant may elect in accordance with the
procedures in Section 5.4(b) to have his Disability Retirement Benefit paid in a
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or in a Joint and 50% Survivor Annuity that
is the Actuarial Equivalent of the Single Life Only Annuity.

 

  (4) A Disabled Participant who ceases to be such solely because he has reached
his Normal Retirement Date shall be entitled to receive his Accrued Benefit
determined using his Final Average Compensation as of his Disability Retirement
Date and the number of years of Benefit Service (to a maximum of 30 years) the
Participant would have had had he remained an Employee of an Employer Company
until his Normal Retirement Date.

AMOUNT AND PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Commencement at Normal Retirement Age. A Grandfathered Motor Cargo Participant

Companies and Related Employers. If a Grandfathered Motor Cargo Participant
continues to work past the date benefits commence under this Section, the

elect to receive his Accrued Benefit in a cash lump sum as soon as practicable

Benefit shall be paid under this Appendix pending a determination of Total
Disability by the Social Security Administration.

main text of the Plan, the Accrued Benefit of a Grandfathered Motor Cargo
Participant who completed at least one “hour of service” (as defined in § 1.27
of the Motor Cargo Plan) on or after January 1, 1994 and prior to January 1,

benefit under this Appendix, such benefit shall be paid from the Plan as soon as
administratively possible.

If the minimum benefit is not claimed within 6 months after the Grandfathered
Motor Cargo Participant is notified of the minimum benefit by either certified
or registered mail at his last known address, the minimum benefit will be
forfeited.

employees and their covered dependants. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Article, if a Retired Participant, or his Covered Dependent, is eligible
for Medical Benefits under this Article and also eligible for medical benefits
under another group medical insurance plan sponsored and maintained by an
Employer Company for active employees and their covered dependents (for example,
the UPS Insurance Plan) (“Alternate Plan”), then no Medical Benefits under this

commence on the day following the day eligibility for benefits under the
Alternate Plan ceases.

which he is represented for purposes of collective bargaining by a Union, or

ARTICLE IV

BENEFIT ELIGIBILITY AND AMOUNTS

If a Participant is eligible for more than one Retirement Benefit for a period
of Covered Employment, such Participant’s Retirement Benefit shall be the
Retirement Benefit that provides the largest monthly dollar amount payable as of
the date his benefit is scheduled to commence with respect to such period of
Covered Employment.

Section 4.01 Normal Retirement Benefit. Refer to Section 4.3 of the applicable
Benefit Schedule.

Section 4.08 [Reserved]

Section 4.09 Other Plan Benefits Offset. Except as to retirements occurring
prior to March l, 1975, and except as otherwise covered under a reciprocal
agreement, the Retirement Benefit shall be reduced by the amount of any benefit
the Participant receives or is entitled to receive from any non-government
pension or retirement plan (other than a defined contribution plan) to which the
Employer made contributions on behalf of the Participant and under which the
same period of service with the Employer is taken into account to calculate
Retirement Benefits also is taken into account in calculating benefits under
that plan. If a reduction in benefits is also called for in another plan or
plans sponsored and maintained by the Employer by reason of the benefits payable
to a Participant under this Plan, the reduction in benefits shall be made only
in the benefits payable under the plan in which the Participant last
participated, and if he participated in more than one other such plan, then the
reduction shall be made in the reverse order of participation with no reduction
in the benefits payable under the plan in which the Participant first
participated.

If the Participant receives one form of benefit under this Plan and another form
of benefit under any such other plan, any reduction shall be based on
actuarially equivalent forms of benefit. If the other benefit is a defined
contribution plan benefit, the “reduction based on actuarially equivalent forms
of benefit” means that the Present Value of the benefit payable under this Plan
shall be reduced by the Present Value of the benefit payable from the defined
contribution plan as of the date benefits are scheduled to commence.

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

Section 4.10 [Reserved]

Section 4.11 Normal and Optional Forms of Payment.

(a) Normal Form. If a Participant is entitled to receive a Retirement Benefit,
such benefit shall be paid in the normal form unless he elects a different form
of benefit in accordance with Section 4.11(b). The normal form of benefit for a
married Participant is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity (as described
below). The normal form of benefit for a single Participant is the Single Life
Only Annuity which is based on the life of the Participant.

The Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a
Single Life Only Annuity. Under the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the
Participant shall be paid his pension for his lifetime; and his spouse as of the
date his Retirement Benefit commences who survives the Participant, shall be
entitled to receive a lifetime survivorship benefit following the Participant’s
death in a monthly amount equal to 50% of the monthly amount which had been
payable to the Participant. The last payment of the Qualified Joint and Survivor
Annuity shall be made as of the first day of the month in which the death of the
last to die of the Participant and his spouse has occurred.

(b) Optional Forms of Benefit. In lieu of the normal form described in
Section 4.11(a), a Participant may elect in writing, at any time prior to
receiving a first payment under this Section 4.11, to receive his Retirement
Benefit in one of the optional benefit payment forms described below. Prior to
January 1, 2005, the only optional benefit payment form was a Single Life Only
Annuity for a married Participant. Each benefit payment form described in this
Section 4.11(b) will be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Participant’s Single
Life Only Annuity.

(i) Joint and 50% or 100% Survivor Annuity. Under the joint and survivor
annuity, a reduced monthly benefit shall be paid to the Participant for his
lifetime, and his beneficiary, if such beneficiary survives at the Participant’s
death, shall be entitled to receive a lifetime survivorship benefit following
the Participant’s death in a monthly amount equal to 50% or 100%, as selected by
the Participant, of the monthly amount which had been payable to the
Participant. The last payment of the joint and 50% survivor annuity or the joint
and 100% survivor annuity shall be made as of the first day of the month in
which the death of the last to die of the Participant and his beneficiary has
occurred.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless specifically provided by an applicable
Benefit Schedule, a Participant may not elect to receive payment of his
Retirement Benefit in the form of a joint and 100% survivor annuity if he has a
non-spousal beneficiary who is younger than the Participant by more than 10
years based on their ages on the date benefit payments commence.

 

- 10 -

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

(ii) Single Life Annuity with 120-Month Guarantee. Under the single life only
annuity with 120-month guarantee, a reduced monthly benefit shall be paid to the
Participant for his lifetime, with a guarantee of 120 monthly payments. If the
Participant dies after the benefit commencement date but before receiving 120
monthly payments, the monthly payments shall be paid to the Participant’s
beneficiary, designated in accordance with Section 5.2, until the Participant’s
beneficiary has received a total of 120 monthly payments.

(iii) Single Life Only Annuity.

(c) Form of Election. An election to waive the normal form of benefit described
in Section 4.11(a) must be in writing in a form approved by the Committee and
shall not be effective if the Participant is married unless:

(i) the spouse of the Participant consents to the election, and such consent:

a) is in writing,

b) acknowledges the Participant’s selection of an alternative form of benefit
and/or beneficiary, which may not thereafter be changed without spousal consent
unless the spouse’s prior consent specifically permits the Participant to change
the beneficiary without further consent by the spouse,

c) acknowledges the effect of the election, and

d) is witnessed by a notary public: or

(ii) it is established to the satisfaction of the Committee that the spouse’s
consent cannot be obtained because:

a) the Participant has no spouse,

b) the Participant’s spouse cannot be located, or

c) one of the conditions prescribed in Treasury regulations is satisfied.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no spousal consent shall be required if a
Participant elects a joint and 100% survivor annuity (as described in
Section 4.11(b)(1)) and his spouse is his designated beneficiary.

(iii) Revocation of Election. A Participant may revoke an election made under
this Section 4.11(c) at any time prior to the first payment of his Retirement
Benefit. A spouse’s consent to the waiver of the Qualified Joint and Survivor
Annuity and to the specific beneficiary and optional form designations made by
the Participant is irrevocable unless the Participant revokes his waiver
election.

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

Section 4.12 Qualified Preretirement Joint and Survivor Annuity.

(a) In General. Each vested Participant who on or after August 23, 1984 has at
least one Hour of Service or at least one hour of paid leave shall have the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity effective for the benefit of his spouse so
that if he dies prior to his benefit commencement date his spouse will be
entitled to receive a survivor benefit as of the following date:

(i) If the Participant dies on or after attaining his Early Retirement Date, as
of the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date of the
Participant’s death; and

(ii) If the Participant dies before attaining his Early Retirement Date, as of
the first day of the month coincident with or next following the earliest date
the Participant would have been entitled to commence benefits based upon his
Vesting Years.

(b) Amount of Qualified Preretirement Joint and Survivor Annuity. The benefit
payable to the Participant’s surviving spouse shall be equal to the amount which
would have been payable to the Participant’s spouse under the Qualified Joint
and Survivor Annuity determined as follows:

(i) If the Participant dies on or after attaining his Early Commencement Age, as
if the Participant had retired and commenced receiving benefits on the date
immediately preceding his death; and

(ii) If the Participant dies before attaining his Early Commencement Age, as if
the Participant had:

a) terminated employment on the date of his death;

b) survived to the earliest date benefits could have commenced to him based on
his completed Vesting Years;

c) retired with an immediate Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity at his Early
Commencement Age; and

d) died on the day after the earliest date benefits could have commenced to him
based on his completed Vesting Years.

In the case of a vested Participant who terminated employment with the Employer
and all Related Employers before the date of such Participant’s death, paragraph
(A) above shall not apply.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, if a married vested Participant dies after
electing the Joint and 100% Survivor Annuity with his Spouse as beneficiary, but
before payment of such benefit has begun, the Committee will adjust the
Qualified Preretirement Joint and Survivor Annuity to reflect the greater
survivor percentage.

 

- 12 -

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

In lieu of the Qualified Preretirement Joint and Survivor Annuity, before the
first payment with respect to such benefit, the Committee shall pay to the
surviving spouse, without such spouse’s consent, the Present Value of the
benefit if such Present Value is less than $1,000 for payments made after
March 1, 2005. For payments made before March 1, 2005, such Present Value does
not exceed $3,500 for Participants terminating employment before September 1,
1998 or $5,000 for Participants terminating employment on or after September 1,
1998.

(c) One-Year Marriage Requirement.

(i) Before January 1, 2004. With respect to Participants who die before
January 1, 2004, a Qualified Preretirement Joint and Survivor Annuity shall not
be paid to a Participant’s spouse unless the Participant and spouse had been
married throughout the one-year period ending on the date of the Participant’s
death.

(ii) On or After January 1, 2004. With respect to Participants who die on or
after January 1, 2004, the one year marriage requirement set forth in
Section 4.12(c)(1) shall not apply.

Section 4.13 [Reserved]

Section 4.14 Preservation of Benefits and Maximum Benefits. Anything to the
contrary notwithstanding, a benefit computed under this ARTICLE IV shall be
subject to the following:

(a) [Reserved]

(b) Maximum Benefit.

(i) General Limitation. The maximum annual benefit payable under this Plan shall
not exceed the lesser of: $160,000 as adjusted, effective January 1 of each
year, under Section 415(d) of the Code in such manner as the Secretary shall
prescribe (the “dollar limitation”) or 100% of the Participant’s average
compensation (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.415-2(d)) paid for
the three consecutive calendar years during which he was an active Participant
in the Plan, and in which he received the greatest aggregate compensation from
the Employer, subject to the following:

a) If the Retirement Benefit is payable in any form other than a Single Life
Only Annuity, a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or a joint and 50% or 100%
survivor annuity (as described in Section 4.11(b)(1)) with the spouse as the
beneficiary, then the limitations of this subsection (1) shall be applied to the
Single Life Only Annuity which is the actuarial equivalent of such benefit. The
actuarially equivalent Single Life Only Annuity is equal to the greater of the
annuity benefit computed

 

- 13 -

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

using the interest rate and mortality table (or other tabular factor) specified
in the Plan for adjusting benefits in the same form, and the annuity benefit
computed using a 5 percent interest rate assumption and the Applicable Mortality
Table. In determining the actuarially equivalent Single Life Only Annuity for a
lump sum benefit, the Applicable Interest Rate will be substituted for 5
percent. No actuarial adjustment is required for the value of a Qualified Joint
and Survivor Annuity or a joint and 50% or 100% survivor annuity (as described
in Section 4.11(b)(1)) with the spouse as beneficiary, benefits that are not
directly related to retirement benefits and the value of post-retirement
cost-of-living increases made in accordance with Section 415(d) of the Code and
the regulations thereunder.

b) If the Retirement Benefit of the Participant commences before age 62, such
dollar limitation shall be adjusted so that it is the actuarial equivalent of an
annual benefit of the dollar limitation beginning at age 62, reduced for each
month by which benefits commence before the month in which the Participant
attains age 62. The Retirement Benefit beginning prior to age 62 shall be
determined as the lesser of the equivalent Retirement Benefit computed using the
interest rate and mortality table (or other tabular factor) equivalence for an
Early Retirement Benefit specified in the Plan, and the equivalent Retirement
Benefit computed using a 5 percent interest rate and the Applicable Mortality
Table. Any decrease in the adjusted defined benefit dollar limitation determined
in accordance with this provision (B) shall not reflect any mortality decrement
to the extent that benefits will not be forfeited upon the death of the
Participant. If any benefits are forfeited upon death, the full mortality
decrement is taken into account.

c) If the Retirement Benefit of a Participant commences after age 65, the
defined benefit dollar limitation shall be adjusted so that it is the actuarial
equivalent of a Retirement Benefit of such dollar limitation beginning at age
65. The actuarial equivalent Retirement Benefit beginning after age 65 shall be
determined as the lesser of the actuarial equivalent Retirement Benefit computed
using the interest rate and mortality table (or other tabular factor) specified
in the Plan for purposes of determining actuarial equivalence for a Postponed
Retirement Benefit, and the equivalent Retirement Benefit computed using a 5
percent interest rate assumption and the Applicable Mortality Table.

d) Subject to limitations imposed elsewhere in this Plan, an annual benefit of
$10,000 or less may be paid regardless of the limitations set forth in this
paragraph (1) if the benefit paid to the Participant from all defined benefit
plans of the Employer does not exceed $10,000 for the Plan Year or any prior
Plan Year, and the Employer has not at any time maintained a defined
contribution plan in which the Participant participated.

 

- 14 -

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

e) If a Participant has less than 10 Years of Service with the Employer at the
time the Participant begins to receive Retirement Benefits under the Plan, the
average compensation limitation, as well as the $10,000 benefit exception
described in subparagraph (1)(D) above, must be reduced by multiplying such
limitation by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Years of
Service with the Employer as of and including the current limitation year, and
the denominator of which is 10. In the case of the dollar limitation where the
Participant has less than 10 years of participation in the Plan, such limitation
shall be reduced by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of years of
participation in the Plan as of and including the current limitation year, and
the denominator of which is 10.

(ii) Limitation Adjustment. The rate of a Participant’s benefit accrual will be
automatically frozen or reduced to a level necessary to prevent the limitations
of this paragraph (b) from being exceeded.

(iii) Single Plan Rule. For purposes of this paragraph (b), all defined benefit
plans of the Employer (whether or not terminated) shall be considered as one
defined benefit plan.

(iv) Automatic Adjustment. The limitations imposed by this paragraph (b) shall
be adjusted automatically when permitted or required by law.

(v) Limitation Year. For purposes of this paragraph (b), the limitation year is
the calendar year.

(vi) Employer. For purposes of this paragraph (b), “Employer” means the Employer
and all Related Employers.

(vii) Transitional Rules. The limitation under subsection (b)(1) for an employee
who was a Participant in this Plan prior to the Plan Year beginning on or after
the earlier of (a) the date on which the last of the collective bargaining
agreements relating to the Plan, as of September 3, 1982, terminates or
(b) January 1, 1986, shall be the greater of (i) the limitation contained in
such subsection or (ii) the Participant’s accrued benefit, expressed as an
annual benefit, as of the last plan year beginning before the earlier of:
(a) the date on which the last of the collective bargaining agreements, as of
September 3, 1982, terminates or (b) January 1, 1986. For purposes of this
subparagraph (7), neither changes in the terms and conditions of this Plan nor
cost of living adjustments occurring after July 1, 1982 shall be taken into
account except for changes in the terms and conditions of the Plan made under a
collective bargaining agreement reached before July 1, 1982, and ratified prior
to September 3, 1982.

(c) Incorporation by Reference. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 4.15, the limitations on maximum benefits payable from this Plan shall
be in accordance with Code Section 415 and the regulations thereunder, which are
incorporated into the Plan by reference.

 

- 15 -

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

Section 4.15 Effect of Collective Bargaining Agreement. The provisions of this
Article IV and the applicable Benefit Schedule as they apply to each Participant
shall be amended from time to time by any Collective Bargaining Agreement which
governs participation in this Plan for such Participant and the terms of any
such Collective Bargaining Agreement are incorporated herein by reference from
the date such agreement becomes binding on the Employer.

thereof.

Section 5.03 Duplication of Benefits. A Participant shall not be entitled to the

Section 4.5 or 4.13, and no such designation shall be effective to the extent
that, in conjunction with spousal rights under Section 4.5 or 4.13 or as
otherwise mandated by the Retirement Equity Act of 1984, it would require
duplication of benefit payments.

Section 5.04 Incompetence or Incapacity of Participant. In the event it is
determined that any Participant is unable to care for his affairs because of
mental or physical incapacity, the Committee may pay the benefits due such
Participant to this legal guardian, or guardians, or legal representatives or,
in the absence of any of them, to any relative by blood or connection by
marriage who is deemed by the Committee to be entitled thereto. Payment by the
Committee to such legal representative or relative of the Participant shall
operate to discharge the Committee from any liability to such Participant or to
anyone representing him or his interest.

Section 5.05 Suspension of Benefits.

(a) If a Participant entitled to receive benefits (which shall be deemed to
include the actual receipt of such benefits) should (1) return to Covered
Employment, or (2) remain in Covered Employment after attaining age 65 (in
administering the Plan the Committee has consistently interpreted age 65 in this
context to mean normal retirement

 

- 17 -

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

age as defined in each of the applicable Benefit Schedules), the payment of
benefits to said Participant shall be suspended for the period in which the
Participant remains employed, but not beyond the required beginning date set
forth in Section 5.1(b)(1). Benefit payments will be resumed no later than the
first day of the third calendar month after the month in which the Participant
ceases to be employed, provided the Participant has informed the Plan
Administrator that he has ceased such employment.

(b) For purposes of this Section 5.5, a period of employment as to which
benefits shall be suspended means any calendar month or a four or five week
period ending in a calendar month, if the Participant completes at least forty
hours of service (as defined in 29 CFR § 2530.200b-2(a)(1) and (2)) with the
Employer or a Related Employer in such month or payroll period.

(c) Any Participant coming under this provision will be notified by first-class
mail or personal delivery within the first calendar month or payroll period in
which the plan withholds the payment of retirement benefits.

(d) Any Participant may request a determination of whether specific contemplated
employment will be considered employment for purposes of this Section 5.5.
Request for status determinations may be submitted in accordance with the claim
procedures set forth in Section 11.4.

ARTICLE VI

APPLICATIONS AND PROOF

Section 6.01 Application. Each Participant or former Participant shall make
written application to the Committee, or their designated representative, for
the benefits, if any, to which he is entitled under this Plan at least sixty
(60) days, but not more than ninety (90) days, in advance of the first day of
the month on which the benefits applied for are to be paid, on a form or forms
to be provided by the Employer for this purpose. The Committee may require each
applicant for retirement benefits to submit such information as may reasonably
be required for the proper administration of the Plan. Except for good cause
show, or unless the delay is due to the failure of the Committee to furnish the
necessary information to the Employee at his last known address as indicated on
the Employer’s records, failure to submit such an application within the time
prescribed shall result in the forfeiture of any benefits that would have been
payable, had the application been timely filed, prior to the date on which such
an application is delivered to the Committee. When any Participant elects any of
the options provided by the Plan, he must make such election on a properly
completed pension application form and in the manner within the time prescribed
above.

Section 6.02 Information and Proof. Every Participant shall furnish, at the
request of the Committee, any information or proof reasonably required for the
administration of the Plan or for the determination of any matter that the
Committee may legitimately have before them. The falsity of any statement
material to an application or the furnishing of fraudulent information or proof
shall be sufficient reason for the recapture, by means of suspension or
discontinuance of benefits, or otherwise, of any excess benefit, if any, paid
under this Plan.

Section 6.03 Action of Committee. The Committee shall be the sole judges of:

 

  (a) the standard of proof required in any case

 

  (b) the application and interpretation of this Plan

 

  (c) the correctness of the computation of Service Credit.

The decision of the Committee with respect to any of the foregoing shall be
final and binding on all parties, subject to the claims procedure set forth in
Section 11.4. Wherever in the Plan the Committee are given discretionary powers,
the Committee shall exercise such powers in a uniform and non-discriminatory
manner.

Section 6.04 Employer Records. For purposes of this Plan and the Trust Agreement
established as a part thereof, the records of the Employer with respect to
Service Credit, Covered Employment, termination of service, military service,
and any and all other matters pertaining to the employment and participation of
an Employee in this Plan shall be controlling.

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

ARTICLE VII

FUNDING OF BENEFITS

Section 7.01 Funding Method and Policy. The Employers shall contribute to the
Plan with respect to each Plan Year an amount sufficient to satisfy their
obligations hereunder and the minimum funding standard, which shall be
considered met if at the end of each Plan Year, the Plan insofar as it relates
to each Employer does not have an accumulated funding deficiency, as defined in
Section 302 of ERISA. Additional amounts may be contributed, in the Employer’s
discretion.

The funding method shall be contributions from the Employers and the funding
policy shall be such as is consistent with the objectives of the Plan.

Section 7.02 Establishment of Funding Standard Account. The Committee hereby
establishes a funding standard account which shall be maintained in accordance
with Section 302 of ERISA. Each Employer shall contribute to the Plan with
respect to each Plan Year an amount sufficient to prevent the occurrence of an
accumulated funding deficiency insofar as it is concerned. The Committee shall
notify each Employer of the existence of an accumulated funding deficiency but
failure to so notify the Employer shall not relieve the Employer from their
obligations hereunder. The Committee shall take whatever action is appropriate
to prevent an accumulated funding deficiency, including making application for a
variance from the minimum funding standard or an extension of amortization
periods, or establishing an alternative minimum funding standard in accordance
with Sections 303, 304 and 305 of ERISA.

Section 7.03 Payment of Contributions. An Employer may pay its contribution for
any Plan Year on any date or dates, provided, however, that the total amount of
the Employer’s contribution for any Plan Year shall be paid in full not later
than the last day for timely filing of its Federal income tax return for the
year with respect to which the contribution is made, including extensions
thereof granted by the Internal Revenue Service. In determining when to make its
contributions as aforesaid, the Employer shall be mindful of the quarterly
contribution rules described in Section 412(m) of the Code.

Section 7.04 Forfeitures. Forfeitures arising under this Plan, if any, shall be
applied to reduce Employer contributions and shall not be used or applied to
increase the benefits any Employee would otherwise be entitled to receive
hereunder.

Section 7.05 Contributions by Employer. All contributions to this Plan to fund
the benefits described in the Benefit Schedules shall be made only by the
Employers.

Section 7.06 Permissible Contributions and Irrevocability. Any amounts
contributed by the Employer pursuant to this Article VII may be contributed by
the Employer in cash or other property. In no such event and under no
circumstances shall such contributions, or any part thereof, revert to or be
recoverable by the Employer until all obligations under this Plan have been
fully satisfied as provided in Section 710.3, except as follows:

 

  (a) in the case of a contribution, or any part thereof, made under a mistake
of fact, the Employer may recover such contribution within one year of payment;
and

 

- 20 -

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

  (b) because all contributions are conditioned on deductibility, in the event
that a contribution cannot be deducted by the Employer pursuant to Section 404
of the Code, the Employer shall recover such contribution, to the extent
disallowed, within one year after the disallowance of the deduction.

The amount which may be returned to the Employer is the excess of: (a) the
amount contributed by the Employer over (b) the amount that would have been
contributed by the Employer had there not occurred a mistake of fact or a
mistake in determining the deduction. Earnings attributable to the excess
contribution may not be returned to the Employer, but losses attributable
thereto must reduce the amount to be so returned.

ARTICLE X

AMENDMENT, TERMINATION; MERGER

Section 10.01 Right to Amend or Terminate. The Employers hope, and expect, to
continue this Plan and the funding of benefits hereunder indefinitely; but such
continuance is not assumed as a contractual obligation and, in order to protect
both Participants and the Employers against unforeseen contingencies, the
Employers expressly reserve the right, by action of their boards of directors,
to discontinue contributions to this Plan or to terminate this Plan at any time
with respect to its Participants, without the consent of any party. The right to
amend this Plan in any respect or particular is vested exclusively in the Board
of Directors which right is not conditional on the consent or approval of any
other Employer. Additionally, any amendment or modification may be made
retroactive, if necessary or appropriate to qualify or maintain the Plan as a
qualified Plan within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code, and to qualify
or maintain the Trust as tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code, and the
regulations issued thereunder. Notice of any amendment or modification of the
Plan may be given by posting, by mail, or by such other means as may be
acceptable under ERISA.

Section 10.02 Withdrawal of Employer. Any Employer, by action of its board of
directors, may withdraw from the Plan at any time.

Section 10.03 Liquidation of Trust Fund. Upon termination or partial termination
of the Plan, each affected Participant’s benefits, determined prior to the date
of termination, shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable, to the extent
funded and to the extent such benefit is not restricted pursuant to the
provisions of Section 10.9 herein. The assets of the Trust Fund, shall be
allocated among Participants and beneficiaries, after payment of administration
expenses of the Plan, in the following order of priority as modified by the
provisions of IRS regulations 1.414(l)-1(f) or (h) if a special schedule of
benefits (as defined in the regulations) is in effect as a result of a plan
merger within the five year period prior to the date of termination:

(a) Benefits Payable Three Years Prior to Termination. First, to provide
benefits that become payable three or more years before the date of termination
of the Plan, or that would have become payable had the Participant retired
immediately prior to the beginning of such three year period, provided that

(i) the benefit payable to a Participant or beneficiary (or that could have been
payable) shall be based on the provisions of the Plan in effect during the five
year period prior to the date of termination of the Plan; and further provided
that,

(ii) the lowest benefit payable during such three year period shall be
considered the benefit payable for purposes of this category (a).

(b) Other Benefits Eligible for Termination Insurance. Second, to the extent
that a benefit has not been provided in category (a), the remaining assets shall
be allocated to provide any benefit provided under the Plan for Participants and
beneficiaries to the extent guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation pursuant to Title IV of ERISA.

 

- 22 -

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

(c) Other Benefits. To the extent that a benefit under the Plan has not been
provided in the foregoing categories, the assets of the Plan shall be allocated
to provide all other non-forfeitable benefits under the Plan and, finally, to
provide all other benefits under the Plan.

If the assets of the Trust Fund applicable to any of the above categories are
insufficient to provide full benefits for all persons in such group, the
benefits otherwise payable to such persons shall be allocated pro rata on the
basis of the present value of benefits as of the termination date. The Actuary
shall calculate the allocation of the assets of the Trust Fund in accordance
with the above priority categories, and certify his calculations to the
Committee. Each of the above classes shall be divided into subclasses, giving
first preference within the class to those Participants over 65 and those
beneficiaries receiving benefits; second preference to Participants over 60
years of age; third preference to Participants over 55 years of age; fourth
preference to Participants under 55 years of age having a deferred vested
benefit; and fifth preference to all others. The Committee may establish
additional subclasses within the classes set forth in subsection (a), (b), and
(c).

Section 10.04 Finality of Payment. Prior to making any distribution under the
terms of Section 10.3, the Committee shall satisfy itself that this procedure
complies with applicable law and shall obtain such waivers and authorizations
from Participants and beneficiaries as it deems advisable.

Section 10.05 Non-diversion of Assets. Except as provided in Section 7.5 hereof,
regarding return of contributions no part of the assets of the Trust, by reason
of any amendment or otherwise, shall at any time be used for, or diverted to,
purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants, former
Participants, or their beneficiaries, and for the payment of administrative
expenses under the Plan, or as will cause, or permit the assets of the Trust to
revert to, or become the property of an Employer at any time prior to the
satisfaction of all liabilities under the Plan. When all such liabilities have
been satisfied, any assets remaining will revert to the Employers.

Section 10.06 Committee Functions during Termination. If the Plan is terminated,
the Committee in office at the time of such termination shall continue to act
with its full powers hereunder until the completion of the allocation and
distribution of the assets of the Trust Fund as in this Article X provided; and
a majority of the members of the Committee then in office shall have the power
to fill any vacancies occurring in the Committee after such termination by
resignation, death, or otherwise. In the event the Committee within a reasonable
time after such termination shall not have provided for such allocation and
distribution, the Board of Directors shall succeed to all powers and duties of
the Committee and shall provide for such allocation and distribution of the
assets of the Trust Fund.

Section 10.07 Notice of Termination. Notice of termination of the Plan, in whole
or in part, shall be deemed adequately given if an Employer of the Committee
mails written notice of the same to the latest address on file of each
Participant or beneficiary who is affected by such termination; or by such other
means as may be acceptable under ERISA.

 

- 23 -

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

Section 10.08 Merger and Consolidation of Plan, Transfer of Assets. In the case
of any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets and liabilities to,
any other plan, provisions shall be made so that each Participant in the Plan on
the date thereof (if the Plan then terminated) would receive a benefit
immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer which is equal to or
greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately
prior to the merger, consolidation or transfer if the Plan had been terminated.

Section 10.09 Discontinuance of Plan Within Ten Years of Amendment. In the event
that the Plan is discontinued by any Employer within ten (10) years after any
amendment to the Plan which increases the benefits payable under the Plan, or if
the full current costs (including current service contributions and interest on
any unfunded liability for the initial cost of retroactive increases in benefits
not covered by current service contributions) are not met by such Employer
during such ten (10) year period, the contributions which may be used to provide
benefits for any one of the twenty-five (25) most highly compensated employees
on the effective date of such amendment, whose anticipated retirement annuity
based upon the rate of compensation as of that date would be more than $1,500
per year, until such full current costs are funded for the first time, shall not
exceed the greatest of:

(a) The total contributions which would have been applied to provide a
retirement annuity for any such employee if the Plan prior to such amendment had
continued without change;

(b) $20,000; or

(c) The amount which would have been provided by contributions under the Plan
prior to such amendment if the Plan had been terminated the day before the
effective date of such amendment, plus an amount computed by multiplying the
number of years during which current costs beginning with the effective date of
such amendment are met by (i) 20% of any such employee’s annual compensation or
(ii) $10,000, whichever is less.

Any excess reserves resulting from the application of the foregoing provisions
of this Section shall be used and applied toward the funding of the benefits due
to other Participants in the Plan who are employees of such Employer, in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

If the Plan is in full force and effect and the full current costs have been
met, the foregoing conditions shall not restrict the current payment of full
benefits called for by the Plan to any Participant. The limitations of this
Section shall be inapplicable to the extent the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
or his duly authorized representative may later rule that the limitations are no
longer necessary for the Plan to meet the requirements for qualifications under
the Internal Revenue Code.

If this Plan is not terminated within the period specified above, the benefits,
if any, which have been withheld from a Participant in accordance with this
Section shall be turned over to the Participant or his representative at the end
of said period or as soon thereafter as the full current costs of the Plan
attributable to the said period have been met for the first time.

 

- 24 -

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

If this Plan is terminated within any of the said periods or thereafter, but
before the full current costs of the Plan attributable to any of the said
periods have been met for the first time, then any benefits which have been
withheld from a Participant in accordance with this Section shall, upon
termination of this Plan, be distributed as provided in Section 10.3, except
that no part of such funds shall be distributed or used to fund benefits for any
Participant who is affected by the limitations of this Article.

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

ARTICLE XI

ADMINISTRATION

Section 11.01 Establishment of Administrative Committee. The Plan shall be
operated and administered by an Administrative Committee consisting of not less
than three (3) members (“named fiduciaries”), who shall be appointed by the
Board of Directors. The Administrative Committee shall be the Plan Administrator
as that term is used in ERISA, agent for service of process on or with respect
to the Plan and a named fiduciary with respect to the Plan. Committee members
may be removed at any time by the Board of Directors and may resign at any time,
such resignation to be effective when accepted by the Board of Directors. All
vacancies shall be filled by the Board of Directors. The Committee may appoint
from their number such committees, which may include individuals not members of
the Committee, with such powers as they shall determine; may authorize one
(1) or more of their number, or any agent, to execute or deliver any instrument,
or to make any payment in their behalf; and may employ legal counsel (who shall
not be an employee of an Employer), actuaries, agents, and such clerical,
accounting and other services as they may require in carrying out the provisions
of the Plan. The Committee shall meet at least once during each calendar
quarter. A majority of the members of the Committee at the time in office shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. All resolutions or other
action taken by the Committee at a meeting shall be by the vote of the majority
of the Committee at any meeting; or without a meeting, by instrument in writing
signed by all of the members of the Committee.

The Committee, acting as agent for the Company, may from time to time appoint
additional named fiduciaries with respect to the Plan for the purpose of
facilitating the investment of Plan’s assets and each named fiduciary appointed
by the Committee shall have such powers, duties, obligations and
responsibilities as the Committee shall prescribe in its appointment.

Section 11.02 Delegation of Specific Responsibilities. The members of the
Committee may agree in a writing signed by each member to allocate to any one of
their number or to other persons (including corporations) any of the
responsibilities with which they are charged pursuant hereto, including the
appointment of an investment manager to manage the investments of the Trust
Fund, provided the responsibilities and duties so delegated are definitively set
forth so that the person to whom the delegation is made is clearly aware of such
duties and responsibilities. If such delegation is made to a person not a member
of the Committee, that person or, in the case of a corporation, its responsible
officer, shall acknowledge the acceptance and understanding of such duties and
responsibilities.

Section 11.03 Power to Establish Regulations. The Committee shall establish
rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan and the Committee.
Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the Committee shall have the
exclusive right to interpret the Plan and decide any matters arising in the
administration and operation of the Plan, and any interpretations or decisions
so made shall be conclusive and binding on all persons; provided, however, that
all such interpretations and decisions shall be applied in a uniform manner to
all Employees and Participants similarly situated.

 

- 26 -

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

Section 11.04 Claims Procedure.

 

  (a) All claims for benefits hereunder shall be directed to the Committee or to
a member of the Committee designated for that purpose. Within ninety (90) days
following receipt of a claim for benefits, the UPS Corporate Benefits Department
manager responsible for the day-to-day operation of the Plan (the “Initial
Reviewer”) shall determine whether the claimant is entitled to benefits under
the Plan, unless additional time is required for processing the claim. In this
event, the Initial Reviewer shall, within the initial ninety (90)-day period,
notify the claimant that additional time is needed, explain the reason for the
extension, and indicate when a decision on the claim will be made. If prior to
the end of the initial thirty (30)-day extension, the Initial Reviewer
determines that, due to matters beyond the control of the Plan, a decision
cannot be made within the extension period, the period may be further extended
for up to an additional thirty (30) days, provided that the Initial Reviewer
notifies the claimant prior to the expiration of the first thirty (30)-day
extension of the circumstances requiring the extension and the date as of which
the Plan expects to make a decision. The claimant shall have forty-five
(45) days within which to provide the specified information unless the Initial
Reviewer gives a longer period in the notification of the extension.

 

  (b) A denial by the Initial Reviewer of a claim for benefits shall be stated
in writing and delivered or mailed to the claimant. Such notice shall set forth
the specific reasons for the denial, written in a manner calculated to be
understood by the claimant. The notice shall include specific reference to the
Plan provisions on which the denial is based and a description of any additional
material or information necessary to perfect the claim, an explanation of why
this material or information is necessary, and the steps to be taken if the
claimant wishes to submit his claim for review, a description of the Plan’s
review procedures, and the time limits applicable to such procedures, and a
statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA
Section 502(a) following an adverse benefit determination upon review.

 

  (c) [Reserved]

 

  (d) The Committee shall afford a reasonable opportunity to any claimant whose
request for benefits has been denied for a review of the decision denying the
claim. The review must be requested by written application to the Committee
within sixty (60) days following receipt by the claimant of written notification
of denial of his claim. Pursuant to this review, the claimant or his duly
authorized representative may review any documents, records and other
information which are pertinent to the denied claim and submit issues and
comments in writing. A claimant may also submit documents, records and other
information relating to his claim, without regard to whether such information
was submitted in connection with his original benefit claim.

 

  (e) [Reserved]

 

- 27 -

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

  (f) A decision on the claimant’s appeal of the denial of benefits shall
ordinarily be made by the Committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting that
immediately follows the receipt of the request for review, unless the request
for review is received within 30 days of such meeting date. In that case, the
review will occur at the second regularly scheduled meeting following the Plan’s
receipt of the request for review. If an extension of time is required because
of special circumstances, the Committee will provide the claimant with written
notice of the extension describing the special circumstances and the date as of
which the benefit determination will be made, prior to the commencement of the
extension. A benefit determination will be made no later than the third
regularly scheduled meeting of the Committee following the Plan’s receipt of the
request for review.

The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons
for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant, specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the decision is
based, and a statement that the claimant or his authorized personal
representative may review any documents and records relevant to the claim
determination, a statement describing further voluntary appeals procedures, if
any, and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring civil action under ERISA
Section 502(a).

Section 11.05 Forfeiture in Case of Unlocatable Participant or Beneficiary. If
the Committee is unable to pay benefits to any Participant or beneficiary who is
entitled to benefits hereunder when such benefits are due because the identity
or whereabouts of such person cannot be ascertained, the Committee shall proceed
as follows:

 

  (a) As soon as administratively possible after the Committee has determined
that a Participant or beneficiary cannot be paid due to the circumstances stated
above, the Committee shall submit the last known address, and any other
information the Committee deems appropriate, to a locator service in accordance
with IRS procedures.

 

  (b) If the locator service provides the Committee with a new address for the
Participant or beneficiary, the Committee shall mail the benefit payment to the
new address as soon as administratively possible after such new address is
known. If the locator service fails to identify a new address for the
Participant or beneficiary, all amounts held for his benefit shall be forfeited
as of the last day of the Plan Year in which the locator service notifies the
Committee that it cannot locate the individual. Upon forfeiture, all liability
for payment of the benefit shall thereupon terminate. In any such case, the
funds released as a result of such forfeiture shall be dealt with as provided in
Section 7/4. However, if an individual subsequently makes what the Committee
determines to be a valid and proper claim to the Committee for such amounts, the
account or accounts will be restored and will be distributable without interest
in accordance with the terms of this Plan.

 

- 28 -

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

Section 11.06 Liability of the Committee. The Committee and the members thereof,
to the extent of the exercise of their authority, shall discharge their duties
with respect to the Plan solely in the interests of the Plan’s Participants and
their Beneficiaries, and for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits thereto
in accordance with the terms of the Plan and to defray the reasonable
administration expenses thereof. In all such actions or omissions the Committee
and each member thereof shall exercise the care, skill, prudence and diligence
under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent man acting in a like
capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an
enterprise of like character and with like aims; provided, however, that no
member shall be responsible for the actions or omissions of a member or any
other party that is a fiduciary with respect to this Plan, other than himself,
which are not in conformity hereto, unless such member knowingly participates in
or knowingly conceals such conduct which he knows to be in breach of this
standard, his own conduct has enabled the other member or other fiduciary to be
in breach of this standard, or he has knowledge of such breach by another member
or other fiduciary and fails to make reasonable efforts under the circumstances
to remedy such breach.

Section 11.07 Fiduciary Responsibility Insurance; Bonding. If the Employer has
not done so, the Committee may direct the purchase of appropriate insurance on
behalf of the Plan and the Plan’s fiduciaries, including the members of the
Committee, to cover liability or losses occurring by reason of the acts or
omissions of a fiduciary; provided, however, that to the extent purchased by the
Plan such insurance must permit recourse by the insurer against the fiduciary in
the case of a breach of a fiduciary duty or obligation by such fiduciary. The
cost of such insurance shall be borne by the Fund, unless the insurance is
provided by and paid for by the Employer. The Committee shall also obtain a bond
covering all the Plan’s fiduciaries, to be paid from the assets of the Trust
Fund.

Section 11.08 Meetings of Committee. The Committee shall hold meetings at least
once during each calendar quarter upon such notice, at such place or places, and
at such time or times as it may determine from time to time. Notice of a meeting
may be waived in writing.

Section 11.09 Compensation of Committee. The members of the Committee may
receive reasonable compensation for their services as the Board of Directors may
from time to time determine. Such compensation and all other expenses of the
Committee, including the compensation of officers, actuaries or counsel, agents
or others that the Committee may employ, shall be paid out of the Trust Fund,
unless paid by the Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Committee member
who is employed on a full-time basis by an Employer shall receive no
compensation, but may be reimbursed for expenses incurred.

Section 11.10 Reliance by Committee. Board of Directors and Committee members
shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken or suffered by them in
good faith in reliance upon the advice or opinion of any actuary, accountant,
legal counsel (other than an employee of an Employer), or physician, and all
action so taken or suffered shall be conclusive upon all Participants and
beneficiaries, and any other person claiming under the Plan.

Section 11.11 Books and Records. The Committee shall keep appropriate books and
records.

Section 11.12 Disbursements. The Committee shall determine the manner in which
the Trust Fund shall be disbursed under the terms of the Plan and Trust
Agreement.

 

- 29 -

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

Section 11.13 Allocation of Responsibility Among Fiduciaries for Plan and Trust
Administration. The fiduciaries hereunder, including the trustee, the Employers,
the Board of Directors and the Committee, shall have only those specific powers,
duties, responsibilities and obligations as are specifically given them under
this Plan or the Trust Agreement. In general, the Employers shall have the sole
responsibility for making the contributions necessary to provide benefits under
the Plan as specified in Article V, and the Board of Directors shall have the
sole authority to appoint and remove the trustee, members of the Committee and
to amend or terminate, in whole or in part, this Plan or the Trust, except as
otherwise provided. The Committee shall have the sole responsibility for the
appointment and removal of any Investment Manager which may be provided for
under the Trust and the administration of this Plan, which responsibility is
specifically described in this Plan and the Trust. Subject to any direction from
the Committee, the Trustee shall have the responsibility for the administration
of the Trust and the management of the assets held under the Trust, all as
specifically provided income Trust. Each fiduciary warrants that any directions
given, information furnished, or action taken by it shall be in accordance with
the provisions of the Plan or the Trust, as the case may be, authorizing or
providing for such direction, information or action. Furthermore, each fiduciary
may rely upon any such direction, information or action of another fiduciary as
being proper under this Plan or the Trust, and is not required under this Plan
or the Trust to inquire into the propriety of any such direction, information or
action. It is intended under this Plan and the Trust that each fiduciary shall
be responsible for the proper exercise of its own powers, duties,
responsibilities and obligations under this Plan and the Trust and shall not be
responsible for any act or failure to act of another fiduciary. No fiduciary
guarantees the Trust Fund in any manner against investment loss or depreciation
in asset value.

Section 11.14 Withholding of Income Tax.

(a) Notification of Withholding of Federal Income Tax. All Participants and
beneficiaries entitled to receive benefits under the Plan shall be notified of
the Plan’s obligation to withhold federal income tax from any benefits payable
pursuant to the terms of the Plan. Such notice shall be in writing, be given at
the times set forth in subsection (b) and contain the information set forth in
subsection (c) of this Section.

(b) Time of Notice. The notice described in subsection (a) shall be provided not
earlier than six months before such payment is to be made and not later than the
time the Participant or beneficiary is furnished with his or her claim for
benefits application.

(c) Content of the Notice. The notice required by subsection (a) shall, at a
minimum:

(i) with respect to any distribution which is an eligible rollover distribution
within the meaning of Code Section 3405(c)(3) (other than an eligible rollover
distribution of less than $200 which is exempt from withholding under
regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury), advise the payee that
there shall be withheld from such distribution an amount equal to 20 percent
thereof (or such other amount as may from time to time be prescribed by the
Code, or the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate), unless the payee
directs the Committee to transfer such distribution as a direct rollover to an
eligible retirement plan, within the meaning of Section 11.15 hereof, in
accordance with such procedures as the Committee may prescribe (a “transfer
direction”),

 

- 30 -

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

(ii) with respect to any distribution which is not an eligible rollover
distribution within the meaning of Code Section 3405(c)(3):

a) advise the payee of his or her right to elect not to have withholding apply
to any payment or distribution and explain the manner in which such election may
be made, and include or indicate the source of any forms necessary to make the
election;

b) advise the payee of his or her right to revoke such an election at any time;

c) advise the payee that any election remains effective until revoked;

d) advise the payee that penalties may be incurred under the estimated tax
payment rules if the payee’s payments of estimated tax are not adequate and
sufficient tax is not withheld from payments under this Plan; and

e) advise the payee that the election not to have federal income tax withheld
from benefits is prospective only and that any election made after a payment or
distribution to the payee is not an election with respect to such payment or
distribution.

(d) Effective Date of Election. Any transfer direction, election or revocation
of any election by a payee shall become effective immediately upon receipt by
the Committee of the transfer direction, election or revocation. Thereafter, the
Committee shall, unless otherwise provided by applicable law, regulation or
other guidance by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate, withhold
federal income tax in accordance or consistent with the instructions filed by
the payee.

(e) Failure to Make Election.

(i) In the case of an eligible rollover distribution, if the payee fails to
provide the Committee with a transfer direction, the Committee shall withhold an
amount equal to 20% of the amount of the distribution (or such other amount as
may be from time prescribed by the Code, or the Secretary of the Treasury or his
delegate).

(ii) In the case of a distribution which is not an eligible rollover
distribution, if the payee fails to provide the Committee with a withholding
certificate, the Committee shall withhold, in the case of a periodic
distribution, the amount which would be required to be withheld from such
payment if such payment were a payment of wages by an employer to an employee
for the appropriate payroll period, determined as if the payee were a married
person

claiming three withholding allowances. In the case of a nonperiodic
distribution, 10% of the amount of the distribution shall be withheld.

 

- 31 -

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

(f) Coordination with Internal Revenue Code and Regulations. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Committee shall discharge their withholding and notice
obligations in accordance with the Code and regulations and such other guidance
with respect thereto as may be promulgated from time to time by the Secretary of
the Treasury or his delegate.

Section 11.15 Direct Rollover.

(a) With respect to any distribution of $200 or more described in Article IV
which constitutes an eligible rollover distribution within the meaning of Code
Section 401(a)(31)(C), the distributee thereof shall, in accordance with
procedures established by the Committee, be afforded the opportunity to direct
that such distribution be transferred directly to the trustee of an eligible
retirement plan (a “direct rollover”). For purposes of the foregoing sentence,
an “eligible retirement plan” is (1) a qualified trust within the meaning Code
Section 402 which is a defined contribution plan the terms of which permit the
acceptance of rollover distributions, (2) an individual retirement account or
annuity within the meaning of Code Section 408 (other than an endowment
contract), or (3) an annuity plan within the meaning of Code Section 403(a),
which is specified by the distributee in such form and at such time as the
Committee may prescribe, and effective for distributions made after December 31,
2001, an (4) an annuity contract within the meaning of Code Section 403(b), and
(5) an eligible retirement plan within the meaning of Code Section 457(b) which
is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or
instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state and which agrees
to separately account for the amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan.
The definition of “eligible retirement plan” shall also apply in the case of a
distribution to a surviving Spouse, or to a Spouse or former Spouse who is the
alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, within the meaning
of Code Section 414(p).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the distributee elects to have his
eligible rollover distribution paid in part to him and part as a direct
rollover:

1) the direct rollover must be in an amount of $500 or more; and

2) A direct rollover to two or more eligible retirement plans shall not be
permitted.

(c) The Committee shall, within a reasonable period of time prior to making an
eligible rollover distribution from this Plan, provide a written explanation to
the distributee of the direct rollover option described above, as well as the
provisions under which such distribution will not be subject to tax if
transferred to an eligible retirement plan within 60 days after the date on
which the distributee received the distribution.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 12.01 Prohibition Against Attachment.

 

  (a) None of the benefits payable hereunder shall be subject to the claims of
any creditor of any Participant or Beneficiary nor shall the same be subject to
attachment, garnishment or other legal or equitable process by any creditor of
the Participant or beneficiary, nor shall any Participant or beneficiary have
any right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber or assign any of
such benefits.

 

  (b) If any Participant or beneficiary under the Plan becomes bankrupt or
attempts to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or
charge any benefit under the Plan, the interest of such person in such benefit
shall, in the discretion of the Committee, cease and terminate, and in that
event the Committee may direct the Trustee to hold or apply the same or any part
thereof to or for the benefit of such Participant or beneficiary, his Spouse,
Domestic Partner, children, or other dependents, or any of them, in such manner
and in such proportion as the Committee may deem proper.

 

  (c) Exception to general prohibition against attachment for Qualified Domestic
Relations Orders.

 

  (i) General rule. The restrictions of subsection (a) and subsection (b) of
this Section 12.1 will not be violated by either (A) the creation of a right to
payments from this Plan by reason of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order or
(B) the making of such payments.

 

  (ii) Definition of Qualified Domestic Relations Order. For purposes of this
subsection (c), the term “Qualified Domestic Relations Order” means any
judgment, decree, or order (including approval of a property settlement
agreement), made pursuant to a State domestic relations law (including a
community property law), which relates to the provision of child support,
alimony payments, or marital property rights to a Spouse, former Spouse, child,
or other dependent of a Participant (an “Alternate Payee”) and which:

 

  1) creates or recognizes the right of an Alternate Payee to, or assigns to any
Alternate Payee the right to, receive all or a portion of the benefits payable
with respect to a Participant under this Plan;

 

  2) clearly specifies (i) the name and last known mailing address (if any) of
the Participant and the name and mailing address of each Alternate Payee covered
by the order, (ii) the amount or percentage of the Participant’s benefits to be
paid by the Plan to each Alternate Payee, or the manner in which such amount
or percentage is to be determined, (iii) the number of payments or period to
which such order applies, and (iv) that the order applies to this Plan;

 

- 34 -

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

  3) does not require this Plan to provide any type or form of benefit, or any
option, not otherwise provided under this Plan, unless, in the case of any
payment before a Participant has separated from service, the order requires
payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee (i) on or after the date the
Participant attains (or would have attained) the earliest age on which he could
elect to receive retirement benefits under the Plan, (ii) as if the Participant
had retired on the date such payment is to begin under such order (but taking
into account only the present value of the benefits actually accrued and not
taking into account the present value of any employer subsidy for early
retirement), and (iii) in any form in which such benefits may be paid under the
Plan to the Participant (other than in the form of a joint and survivor annuity
with respect to the Alternate Payee and his subsequent Spouse);

 

  4) does not require this Plan to provide increased benefits (determined on the
basis of actuarial equivalence); and

 

  5) does not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee which are
required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under another order previously
determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

Section 12.02 Facility of Payment. If any Participant or beneficiary shall be
physically or mentally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of any
payment due under the terms of the Plan, the Committee may direct the Trustee to
make any such payment to a legal representative or, if no legal representative
shall have been appointed for him, to any person or institution maintaining such
Participant or beneficiary, and the payment to such person or institution in
good faith shall constitute a valid and complete discharge for such payment.

Section 12.03 Payment to Minor Beneficiary. If the beneficiary of any
Participant shall be a minor and no guardian shall have been appointed for him,
the Committee may direct the Trustee to retain any payment due under the Plan
for his benefit until he attains majority. Such amount, as authorized by the
Committee, may be held in cash, deposited in bank accounts, or invested or
reinvested in direct obligations of the United States, and the income thereon
may be accumulated and invested, or the income and principal may be expended and
applied directly for the maintenance, education and support of such minor
without the intervention of any guardian and without application to any court.

Section 12.04 No Rights of Employment. The Plan shall not confer upon any
Employee or Participant any right of employment, nor shall any provision of the
Plan interfere with the right of an Employer to discharge any Employee.

 

- 35 -

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

Section 12.05 Payments Only From Trust Fund. Except as otherwise required by
law, no liability shall attach to the Employers for payment of any benefits or

them shall have recourse only to the Trust Fund for payment of any benefit
hereunder and the rights of such persons are hereby expressly limited
accordingly.

various counterparts to this document, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original but all shall be deemed to be one document.

Section 12.09 No Access to Books and Records. Nothing herein or in the Trust
Agreement shall give any Participant or beneficiary or any other person the
right or privilege to examine or have access to the books or records of any
Employer or of the Committee or the trustee; nor shall any such person have any
right, legal or equitable, against any Employer or against any director,
officer, employee, agent or representative thereof or against the trustee or the
Committee, except as herein expressly provided or permitted by law.

received by the Plan is a “Qualified Domestic Relations Order” within the
meaning of subsection (c) of Section 12.1, (b) for administering distributions

SECTION 4.3. - Normal Retirement Benefit. If a Participant separates from

Retirement Date, his Normal Retirement Benefit payable as of his Normal
Retirement Date shall equal his Monthly Single-Life Benefit as determined in
Section 4.2 as of his Normal Retirement Date, reduced by the Other Plan Benefits
Offset described below.

SECTION 4.4. - Postponed Retirement Benefit. If a Participant separates from
service with the Employer Company and all Related Employers on or after his
Normal Retirement Date, his Postponed Retirement Benefit payable as of his
Postponed Retirement Date shall equal the greatest of (a) his Monthly
Single-Life Benefit as determined in Section 4.2 as of his Postponed Retirement
Date, reduced by the Other Plan Benefits Offset described below, (b) the benefit

Employer or a Related Employer. A Participant’s Deferred Vested Benefit shall

years of Service Credit earned prior to his most recent separation from service
with the Employer Company and all Related Employers, reduced, if applicable, for
early commencement as described below and further reduced by the Other Plan
Benefits Offset described below. A Participant’s Deferred Vested Benefit shall
be payable as of his Normal Retirement Date or, if he has completed five Vesting
Years and so elects, as of the first day of the month coincident with or next
following his attainment of 55 years of age. If the Participant’s benefit is
paid before he reaches Normal Retirement Age, it will be actuarially reduced
based on the period of time by which the beginning of the benefit precedes the
Normal Retirement Age so as to be the Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit
payable at Normal Retirement Age.

SECTION 4.7. - Social Security Offset. The monthly benefit payable to a
Participant shall be reduced by A times the lesser of B or C where

A = the ratio of the Participant’s years of Service Credit (not to exceed 30) to

payable to the Participant at age 65; and

C = 50% of the amount determined under Section 4.2 before the reduction for the
Social Security Offset.

The reduction shall commence at the age at which unreduced social security
primary insurance benefits are first payable to the Participant or, if later,
when the Participant actually retires. For purposes of calculating the
Participant’s social security benefit, (a) the Participant’s wages prior to his
first full calendar year of employment with the Employer will be estimated by
projecting the Participant’s compensation for his first full calendar year of
employment backward at 7% per year to the later of the year in which the
Participant attained age 21 or 1951 and (b) in the event the Participant
separates from service with the Employer Company and all Related Employers
before his Normal Retirement Age, his post termination wages will be estimated
assuming he will continue to receive compensation at the same rate in effect on
the date he separates from service with the Employer Company and all Related
Employers until he attains Normal Retirement Age. If the Participant separates
from service with the Employer Company and all Related Employers before his
Normal Retirement Age, the social security benefit will be calculated based on
the law in effect on the date he separates from service with the Employer
Company and all Related Employers. If the Participant dies before he begins
receiving benefits under the Plan, any survivor benefit payable to his surviving
spouse will be calculated based on the social security benefit that the
Participant would have been entitled to receive at age 65 if he had lived to
that date, using the assumptions described above.

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

SECTION 4.8. - Other Plan Benefits Offset. The Other Plan Benefits Offset is the
reduction described in Section 4.9 of the main text of this Appendix; provided
that benefits under any defined contribution plan shall not be considered a
“retirement plan to which the Employer made contribution on behalf of the
Participant or under which service with the Employer is counted in calculating
benefits” for purposes of that Section. Further, any such retirement plan is
referred to in this Section as an “Other Plan.”

(a) Retirement Benefits Payable in Annuity Form. If the Retirement Benefit is
payable in an annuity form, the amount of the reduction shall be determined and
subtracted from the Retirement Benefit as of the later of the date as of which
Retirement Benefits commence under the Plan or the earliest date such
Participant could begin receiving benefits under such Other Plan (the
“Determination Date”). Thus, if a Participant is not eligible for a benefit
under an Other Plan when he begins receiving benefits under this Plan, his
Retirement Benefit will not be reduced until the earliest date he could have
begun receiving a benefit under the Other Plan. The amount of the reduction
shall be equal to the Single Life Only Annuity that would have been payable
under the Other Plan as of the Determination Date or, if the Single Life Only
Annuity is not available under such Other Plan, the Single Life Only Annuity
which is the Actuarial Equivalent of the normal form of benefit that would have
been payable under such Other Plan as of the Determination Date. If a
Participant begins receiving a benefit under an Other Plan before the
Determination Date, the amount of the reduction will be actuarially adjusted.

(b) Retirement Benefit Payable in Lump Sum. If the Retirement Benefit is payable
in a lump sum, the Present Value of the benefit payable under this Plan shall be
reduced by the Present Value of the benefit actually paid to such Participant or
payable to him under such Other Plan.

(c) Estimation. If the Committee determines that it is not reasonably
practicable to obtain the actual amount of the benefit payable to or on behalf
of a Participant under an Other Plan in sufficient time to make payment of
his/her benefit under this Plan, the Committee may estimate the amount of the
Other Plan benefit using such methods as they in their discretion deem
appropriate. If the Committee estimates the Other Plan benefit, they shall use
their best efforts to obtain the actual amount of the Other Plan benefit and
adjust the benefit being paid from this Plan accordingly. In the event that the
estimated Other Plan benefit is less than the actual Other Plan benefit, the
Committee shall reduce the payments under this Plan immediately to reflect the
amount of the difference and may recover any previous overpayments from this
Plan by deducting such overpayments from future benefit payments due under this
Plan or by such other methods as the Committee deems appropriate. In the event
that the estimated Other Plan benefit is larger than the actual Other Plan
benefit, the Committee shall increase the payments under this Plan immediately
to reflect the amount that of such difference and shall make an additional
payment equal to the amount that would have been received if the Plan had used
the actual Other Plan benefit from the commencement of payment.

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

SECTION 4.9. - Qualified Joint and Survivor (Husband and Wife) Preretirement
Survivor Benefit. If a vested Participant dies prior to receiving a benefit
under the Plan, his surviving Spouse will be entitled to a survivor benefit
under Section 4.12 of the main text of this Appendix, determined without regard
to whether the Participant and his spouse had been married for at least one year
prior to his death.

SECTION 4.10. - Payment of Retirement Benefit. The benefits shall be paid in the
form of a Single Life Only Annuity (for unmarried Participants) or the Qualified
Joint and Survivor Annuity (for married Participants) described in Article IV of
the main text of this Appendix unless the Participant properly waives the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or Single Life Only Annuity and selects an
optional benefit form described in Article V.

SECTION 4.11. - Lump Sum Payment. Notwithstanding any contrary provision, if the
Present Value of the Retirement Benefit payable to a Participant or the Present
Value of the survivor benefit payable to a Participant’s surviving spouse under
Section 4.12 of the main text of this Appendix is less than $1,000, payment of
such Present Value shall be made in a lump sum as soon as administratively
practicable following the Participant’s separation from service with the
Employer Company and all Related Employers, without the Participant’s, or if the
Participant is deceased, the surviving spouse’s, consent, in lieu of all other
benefits under the Plan. If the Present Value of such benefit is at least $1,000
but not greater than $3,500, the Committee may pay such Present Value to the
Participant or if the Participant is deceased, to the surviving spouse, in a
lump sum in lieu of all other benefits under the Plan with the consent of the
Participant or the surviving spouse, following the Participant’s separation from
service with the Employer Company and all Related Employers or, in the case of a
survivor benefit, the Participant’s death. If the Present Value of a
Participant’s nonforfeitable Retirement Benefit under this Plan is zero as of
the date the Participant separates from service with the Employer Company and
all Related Employers, such Participant shall be deemed to have received a
distribution of such nonforfeitable benefit when the Participant separates from
service.

If the Participant’s Retirement Benefit is cashed out pursuant to this
Section 4.11, service with respect to which the distribution of the Present
Value was made shall be disregarded for purposes of the Plan, provided, however,
that such service shall be counted in determining the Employee’s Vesting Years
and years of Service Credit if, upon reemployment, the distribution is repaid by
the Employee to the Trust Fund, together with interest at 5% or such other rate
as may in the future be established or otherwise made effective by regulation or
administration action implementing Sections 204(c)(2)(C) and 204(e) or ERISA.

SECTION 4.12. - Maximum Benefit. Notwithstanding Section 4.14(b) of the main
text of this Appendix or any contrary provision of the main text of this
Appendix, the limitations on maximum benefits payable from this Appendix shall
be in accordance with Section 415 of the Code, including, particularly,
Section 415(b)(9) of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, which are
incorporated into this Appendix by reference.

SECTION 4.13. - Special Increase for Participants Reaching Normal Retirement Age
After December 31, 2003. Notwithstanding the limitations of Section 1.5, as soon
as practicable after August 31, 2006 (the “Ratification Date”) (a) the
Compensation of each Affected Participant shall be redetermined such that his
Compensation for a calendar year is limited only by Section 401(a)(17) of the
Code; (b) such Affected Participant’s Final Average Earnings shall

 

- 45 -

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

be recalculated using the Compensation determined in (a); and (c) such Affected
Participant’s Retirement Benefit shall be increased effective as of the first
day of the month after the Ratification Date to reflect any increase in his
Final Average Earnings as a result of the recalculation in (b) and shall be paid
as soon as administratively practicable. The increase described in (c) shall be
prospective only and benefits paid before the Ratification Date shall not be
increased. An Affected Participant is any Participant (i) who reached Normal
Retirement Age after December 31, 2003 and before the Ratification Date and
(ii) whose Compensation for any calendar year was limited to $150,000 as a
result of Section 1.5.

OPTIONAL BENEFIT FORMS

SECTION 5.1. - General. In addition to the Single Life Only Annuity, the
following optional forms are available to a Participant who properly waives the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or Single Life Only Annuity:

(a) Joint and Survivor Annuity. The benefit under a Joint and Survivor Annuity
shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a Single Life Only Annuity based on the
life of the Participant. Under the Joint and Survivor Annuity, the Participant
shall be paid his pension for his lifetime; and his designated beneficiary as of
the date of the Participant’s retirement, if surviving at the Participant’s
death, shall be entitled to receive thereafter a lifetime survivorship benefit
in a monthly amount equal to a percentage (50%, 66 2/3%, 75%, or 100%, as
selected by the Participant) of the monthly amount which had been payable to the
Participant. The last payment of the Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be made as
of the first day of the month in which the death of the last to die of the
Participant and his designated beneficiary has occurred. A Participant may not
elect to receive payment of his Retirement Benefit in the form of a joint and
survivor annuity if he has a non-spousal beneficiary and such beneficiary is
younger than the Participant by more than the maximum number of years specified
in the following table based on their ages on their birthdays in the calendar
year in which benefit payments commence:

 

Annuity Form

   Maximum Number of Years

Joint and 100% Survivor Annuity

   10 years

Joint and 75% Survivor Annuity

   19 years

Joint and 66 2/3% Survivor Annuity

   25 years

(b) Period Certain and Continuous Annuity. The benefit under a Period Certain
and Continuous Annuity shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a Monthly
Single-Life Benefit based on the life of the Participant. Under the Period
Certain and Continuous Annuity, the Participant shall be paid his pension for
his lifetime; and if the Participant dies before receiving a specified number of
monthly payments (120, 180, 240, as selected by the Participant (“guaranteed
payments”)), the Participant’s designated beneficiary shall be entitled to
receive thereafter a monthly guaranteed payment equal to the payment which had
been payable to the Participant until all of the monthly payments have been made
from the Plan to the Participant and his designated beneficiary. The last
payment of the Period Certain and Continuous Annuity

 

- 46 -

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

shall be made as of the first day of the month in which occurs the later of the
death of the Participant or the last of the guaranteed monthly payments has been
made. Each Participant who selects this option shall designate a beneficiary in
writing, in the form and manner required by the Committee, and such beneficiary
may be changed by such Participant in the same manner, but such designation
shall not be considered made until received by the Committee or its designees on
such form and unless it is received by the Committee prior to the Participant’s
death. The Committee shall be the sole judges of the effectiveness of the
designation or change thereof. If a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary
or his designated beneficiary fails to survive the Participant, the
Participant’s designated beneficiary shall be deemed to be his surviving Spouse,
if any; or if there is no surviving Spouse, his surviving children, in equal
shares; or if there are no surviving children, his estate. If a beneficiary dies
before all payments are made under this optional form, the remaining payments
shall be made in a lump sum or in installments as the Committee shall direct to
the beneficiary designated by such beneficiary or, if there is no such
designation, to such beneficiary’s estate.

(c) Level Income Option. The benefit under a Level Income Option shall be the
Actuarial Equivalent of a Monthly Single-Life Benefit based on the life of the
Participant. Under the Level Income Option, the Participant shall be paid a
higher benefit until age 62 or 65, as selected by the Participant, and a reduced
benefit after age 62 or 65, as applicable, to provide a more level income over
the Participant’s lifetime, taking into account the social security primary
insurance benefits the Participant is expected to receive at the selected age.
The last payment of the Level Income Option shall be made as of the first day of
the month in which the death of the Participant occurs.

below and further reduced by the Other Plan Benefits Offset as described below.
A Participant’s Early Retirement Benefit shall be payable as of his Normal
Retirement Date or, if he so elects, as of his Early Retirement Date. If the
Participant’s benefit is paid before he reaches Normal Retirement Age, it will
be actuarially reduced based on the period of time by which the commencement of
his benefit precedes his Normal Retirement Age so as to be the Actuarial
Equivalent of the benefit payable at Normal Retirement Age.

SECTION 4.6. - Deferred Vested Benefit. A Participant shall be fully vested upon
the completion of one Vesting Year. A Participant shall receive credit for
vesting purposes for employment from his initial date of employment with an
Employer or a Related Employer. A Participant’s Deferred Vested Benefit shall
equal his Monthly Single Life as determined in Section 4.2 based on his years of
Service Credit earned prior to his most recent separation from service with the
Employer Company and all Related Employers, reduced, if applicable, for early
commencement as described below and further reduced by the Other Plan Benefits
Offset described below. A Participant’s Deferred Vested Benefit shall be payable
as of his Normal Retirement Date or, if he has completed five Vesting Years and
so elects, as of the first day of the month coincident with or next following
his attainment of 55 years of age. If the Participant’s benefit is paid before
he reaches Normal Retirement Age, it will be actuarially reduced based on the
period of time by which the beginning of the benefit precedes the Normal
Retirement Age so as to be the Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit payable at
Normal Retirement Age.

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

SECTION 4.7. - Other Plan Benefits Offset. The Other Plan Benefits Offset is the
reduction described in Section 4.9 of the main text of this Appendix; provided
that benefits under any defined contribution plan shall not be considered a
“retirement plan to which the Employer made contribution on behalf of the
Participant or under which service with the Employer is counted in calculating
benefits” for purposes of that Section. Further, any such retirement plan is
referred to in this Section as an “Other Plan.”

(a) Retirement Benefits Payable in Annuity Form. If the Retirement Benefit is
payable in an annuity form, the amount of the reduction shall be determined and
subtracted from the Retirement Benefit as of the later of the date as of which
Retirement Benefits commence under the Plan or the earliest date such
Participant could begin receiving benefits under such Other Plan (the
“Determination Date”). Thus, if a Participant is not eligible for a benefit
under an Other Plan when he begins receiving benefits under this Plan, his
Retirement Benefit will not be reduced until the earliest date he could have
begun receiving a benefit under the Other Plan. The amount of the reduction
shall be equal to the Monthly Single-Life Benefit that would have been payable
under the Other Plan as of the Determination Date or, if the Monthly Single-Life
Benefit is not available under such Other Plan, the Monthly Single-Life Benefit
which is the Actuarial Equivalent of the normal form of benefit that would have
been payable under such Other Plan as of the Determination Date. If a
Participant begins receiving a benefit under an Other Plan before the
Determination Date, the amount of the reduction will be actuarially adjusted.

(b) Retirement Benefit Payable in Lump Sum. If the Retirement Benefit is payable
in a lump sum, the Present Value of the Retirement Benefit payable under this
Plan shall be reduced by the Present Value of the benefit actually paid to such
Participant or payable to him under such Other Plan.

(c) Estimation. If the Committee determines that it is not reasonably
practicable to obtain the actual amount of the benefit payable to or on behalf
of a Participant under an Other Plan in sufficient time to make payment of his
benefit under this Plan, the Committee may estimate the amount of the Other Plan
benefit using such methods as they in their discretion deem appropriate. If the
Committee estimates the Other Plan benefit, they shall use their best efforts to
obtain the actual amount of the Other Plan benefit and adjust the benefit being
paid from this Plan accordingly. In the event that the estimated Other Plan
benefit is less than the actual Other Plan benefit, the Committee shall reduce
the payments under this Plan immediately to reflect the amount of the difference
and may recover any previous overpayments from this Plan by deducting such
overpayments from future benefit payments due under this Plan or by such other
methods as the Committee deems appropriate. In the event that the estimated
Other Plan benefit is larger than the actual Other Plan benefit, the Committee
shall increase the payments under this Plan immediately to reflect the amount
that of such difference and shall make an additional payment equal to the amount
that would have been received if the Plan had used the actual Other Plan benefit
from the commencement of payment.

SECTION 4.8. - Qualified Joint and Survivor (Husband and Wife) Preretirement
Survivor Benefit. If a vested Participant dies prior to receiving a benefit
under the Annuity, his surviving spouse will be entitled to a survivor benefit
under Section 4.12 of the main text of this Appendix, determined without regard
to whether the Participant and his spouse had been married for at least one year
prior to his death.

 

- 56 -

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

SECTION 4.9. - Payment of Retirement Benefit. The benefits shall be paid in the
form of a Single Life Only Annuity (for unmarried Participants) or the Qualified
Joint and Survivor Annuity (for married Participants) described in Article IV of
the main text of this Appendix unless the Participant properly waives the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or Single Life Only Annuity and selects an
optional benefit form described in Article V.

SECTION 4.10. - Lump Sum Payment. Notwithstanding any contrary provision, if the
Present Value of the benefit payable to a Participant or the Present Value of
the survivor benefit payable to a Participant’s surviving spouse under
Section 4.12 of the main text of this Appendix is less than $1,000, payment of
such Present Value shall be made in a lump sum as soon as administratively
practicable following the Participant’s separation from service with the
Employer Company and all Related Employers, without the Participant’s, or if the
Participant is deceased the surviving spouse’s, consent, in lieu of all other
benefits under the Plan. If the Present Value of such benefit is at least $1,000
but not greater than $3,500, the Committee may pay such Present Value to the
Participant or if the Participant is deceased, to the surviving spouse, in a
lump sum in lieu of all other benefits under the Plan with the consent of the
Participant or the surviving spouse, following the Participant’s separation from
service with the Employer Company and all Related Employers or in the case of a
survivor benefit, the Participant’s death. If the Present Value of a
Participant’s nonforfeitable benefit under this Plan is zero as of the date the
Participant separates from service with the Employer Company and all Related
Employers, such Participant shall be deemed to have received a distribution of
such nonforfeitable benefit when the Participant separates from service.

If the Participant’s benefit is cashed out pursuant to this Section 4.10,
service with respect to which the distribution of the present value was made
shall be disregarded for purposes of the Plan, provided, however, that such
service shall be counted in determining the Employee’s Vesting Years and years
of Service Credit if, upon reemployment, the distribution is repaid by the
Employee to the Committee, together with interest at 5% or such other rate as
may in the future be established or otherwise made effective by regulation or
administration action implementing Sections 204(c)(2)(C) and 204(e) or ERISA.

SECTION 4.11. - Maximum Benefit. Notwithstanding Section 4.14(b) of the main
text of this Appendix or any contrary provision of the main text of this
Appendix or this Benefit Schedule, the limitations on maximum benefits payable
from this Appendix shall be in accordance with Section 415 of the Code,
including, particularly, Section 415(b)(9) of the Code, and the regulations
thereunder, which are incorporated into this Benefit Schedule by reference.

ARTICLE V

OPTIONAL BENEFIT FORMS

SECTION 5.1. - General. In addition to the Single Life Only Annuity, the
following optional forms are available to a Participant who properly waives the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or Single Life Only Annuity:

(a) Joint and Survivor Annuity. The benefit under a Joint and Survivor Annuity
shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a Single Life Only Annuity based on the
life of the Participant. Under the Joint and Survivor Annuity, the Participant
shall be paid his pension for his lifetime; and his designated beneficiary as of
the date of the Participant’s retirement, if surviving at the Participant’s
death, shall be entitled to receive thereafter a lifetime survivorship benefit
in a monthly amount equal to a percentage (50%, 66 2/3%, 75%, or 100%, as
selected by the Participant) of the monthly amount which had been payable to the
Participant. The last payment of the Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be made as
of the first day of the month in which the death of the last to die of the
Participant and his designated beneficiary has occurred. A Participant may not
elect to receive payment of his Retirement Benefit in the form of a joint and
survivor annuity if he has a non-spousal beneficiary and such beneficiary is
younger than the Participant by more than the maximum number of years specified
in the following table based on their ages on their birthdays in the calendar
year in which benefit payments commence:

 

Annuity Form

  

Maximum Number of Years

Joint and 100% Survivor Annuity

   10 years

Joint and 75% Survivor Annuity

   19 years

Joint and 66 2/3% Survivor Annuity

   25 years

(b) Period Certain and Continuous Annuity. The benefit under a Period Certain
and Continuous Annuity shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a Single Life Only
Annuity based on the life of the Participant. Under the Period Certain and
Continuous Annuity, the Participant shall be paid his pension for his lifetime;
and if the Participant dies before receiving a specified number of monthly
payments (120, 180, 240, as selected by the Participant (“guaranteed
payments”)), the Participant’s designated beneficiary shall be entitled to
receive thereafter a monthly guaranteed payment equal to the payment which had
been payable to the Participant until all of the monthly payments have been made
from the Plan to the Participant and his designated beneficiary. The last
payment of the Period Certain and Continuous Annuity shall be made as of the
first day of the month in which occurs the later of the death of the Participant
or the last of the guaranteed monthly payments has been made. Each Participant
who selects this option shall designate a beneficiary in writing, in the form
and manner required by the Committee, and such beneficiary may be changed by
such Participant in the same manner, but such designation shall not be
considered made until received by the Committee or its designees on such form
and unless it is received by the Committee prior to the Participant’s death. The
Committee shall be the sole judges of the effectiveness of the designation or
change thereof. If a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary or his
designated beneficiary fails to survive the Participant, the Participant’s
designated beneficiary shall be deemed to be his surviving Spouse, if any; or if
there is no surviving Spouse, his surviving children, in equal shares; or if
there are no surviving children, his estate. If a beneficiary dies before all
payments are made under this optional form, the remaining payments shall be made
in a lump sum or in installments as the Committee shall direct to the
beneficiary designated by such beneficiary or, if there is no such designation,
to such beneficiary’s estate.

(c) Level Income Option. The benefit under a Level Income Option shall be the
Actuarial Equivalent of a Monthly Single-Life Benefit based on the life of the
Participant. Under the Level Income Option, the Participant shall be paid a
higher benefit until age 62 or 65, as selected by the Participant, and a reduced
benefit after age 62 or 65, as applicable, to provide a more level income over
the Participant’s lifetime, taking into account the social security primary
insurance benefits the Participant is expected to receive at the selected age.
The last payment of the Level Income Option shall be made as of the first day of
the month in which the death of the Participant occurs.

INDEPENDENT PILOTS ASSOCIATION

Section 1. General Rules.

1.1. Precedence and Effective Date. Subject to Article 5.1, Joint and Survivor
Annuity Requirements, the requirements of this Appendix shall apply to any
distribution of a Participant’s interest and will take precedence over any
inconsistent provisions of this Plan. Unless otherwise specified, the provisions
of this Appendix apply to calendar years beginning after December 31, 2002.

1.2. Requirements of Regulations Incorporated. All distributions required under
this Appendix shall be determined and made in accordance with § 401(a)(9) of the
Code, including the incidental death benefit requirement in § 401(a)(9)(G), and
the regulations thereunder.

1.3. Limits on Distribution Periods. As of the first Distribution Calendar Year,
distributions to a Participant if not made in a single sum may only be made over
one of the following periods:

(a) the life of the Participant,

(b) the joint lives of the Participant and a Designated Beneficiary,

(c) a period certain not extending beyond the joint life and last survivor
expectancy of the Participant and a Designated Beneficiary.

1.4. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not defined herein will have the same
meaning assigned to those terms in the main text of the Plan or Appendix, as
applicable.

Section 2. Time and Manner of Distribution.

2.1. Required Beginning Date. The Participant’s entire interest will be
distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than the Participant’s
Required Beginning Date. If a Participant continues to work past the date
benefits are required to commence under this Section, his benefit shall be
adjusted annually to reflect the additional benefits, if any, accrued in the
immediately preceding Plan Year. Such adjustment shall be made on or before each
April 1 retroactive to January 1 of the year in which the adjustment is made.

2.2. Death of Participant Before Distributions Begin. If the Participant dies
before distributions begin, the Participant’s entire interest will be
distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than as follows:

(a) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated
Beneficiary, then distributions to the surviving Spouse will begin by
December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in
which the Participant died, or by December 31 of the calendar year in which the
Participant would have attained age 70 1/2, if later.

 

- 59 -

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

(b) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is not the Participant’s sole
Designated Beneficiary, then, except as provided in the adoption agreement,
distributions to the Designated Beneficiary will begin by December 31 of the
calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant
died.

(c) If there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year
following the year of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s entire interest
will be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth
anniversary of the Participant’s death.

(d) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated
Beneficiary and the surviving Spouse dies after the Participant but before
distributions to the surviving Spouse are required to begin, this Section 2.2,
other than Section 2.2(a), will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the
Participant.

For purposes of this Section 2.2 and Section 5, unless Section 2.2(d) applies,
distributions are considered to begin on the Participant’s Required Beginning
Date. If Section 2.2(d) applies, distributions are considered to begin on the
date distributions are required to begin to the surviving Spouse under
Section 2.2(a). If distributions under an annuity meeting the requirements of
this Appendix commence to the Participant before the Participant’s Required
Beginning Date (or to the Participant’s surviving Spouse before the date
distributions are required to begin to the surviving Spouse under
Section 2.2(a)), the date distributions are considered to begin is the date
distributions actually commence.

2.3. Forms of Distribution. Unless the Participant’s interest is distributed in
the form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company or in a single sum on
or before the Required Beginning Date, as of the first Distribution Calendar
Year distributions will be made in accordance with Sections 3, 4 and 5 of this
Appendix. If the Participant’s interest is distributed in the form of an annuity
purchased from an insurance company, distributions thereunder will be made in
accordance with the requirements of § 401(a)(9) of the Code and § 1.401(a)(9) of
the regulations. Any part of the Participant’s interest which is in the form of
an individual account described in § 414(k) of the Code will be distributed in a
manner satisfying the requirements of § 401(a)(9) of the Code and § 1.401(a)(9)
of the regulations that apply to individual accounts.

Section 3. Determination of Amount to be Distributed Each Year.

3.1. General Annuity Requirements. If the Participant’s interest is to be paid
in the form of annuity distributions under the Plan, payments under the annuity
shall satisfy the following requirements:

(a) the annuity distributions will be paid in periodic payments made at uniform
intervals not longer than one year;

 

- 60 -

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

(b) the distribution period will be over a life (or lives) or over a period
certain not longer than the period described in Section 4 or 5:

(c) once payments have begun over a period, the period will be changed only in
accordance with Section 6 of this article;

 

  (d) payments will either be nonincreasing or increase only as follows:

(1) by an annual percentage increase that does not exceed the percentage
increase in an Eligible Cost-Of-Living Index for a 12-month period ending in the
year during which the increase occurs or a prior year;

(2) by a percentage increase that occurs at specified times and does not exceed
the cumulative total of annual percentage increases in an Eligible
Cost-Of-Living Index since the Annuity Starting Date, or if later, the date of
the most recent percentage increase;

(3) by a constant percentage of less than 5 percent per year, applied not less
frequently than annually;

(4) as a result of dividend or other payments that result from Actuarial Gains,
provided:

(i) Actuarial Gain is measured not less frequently than annually,

(ii) the resulting dividend or other payments are either paid no later than the
year following the year for which the actuarial experience is measured or paid
in the same form as the payment of the annuity over the remaining period of the
annuity (beginning no later than the year following the year for which the
actuarial experience is measured),

(iii) the Actuarial Gain taken into account is limited to Actuarial Gain from
investment experience,

(iv) the assumed interest rate used to calculate such Actuarial Gains is not
less than 3 percent, and

(v) the annuity payments are not increased by a constant percentage as described
in (3) of this Section 3.1(d);

 

- 61 -

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

(5) to the extent of the reduction in the amount of the Participant’s payments
to provide for a survivor benefit, but only if there is no longer a survivor
benefit because the Beneficiary whose life was being used to determine the
distribution period described in Section 4 dies or is no longer the
Participant’s Beneficiary pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order
within the meaning of § 414(p) of the Code:

(6) to provide a final payment upon the Participant’s death not greater than the
excess of the actuarial present value of the Participant’s accrued benefit
(within the meaning of § 411(a)(7) of the Code) calculated as of the Annuity
Starting Date using the Applicable Interest Rate and the Applicable Mortality
Table (or, if greater, the total amount of employee contributions, if any) over
the total of payments before the Participant’s death;

(7) to allow a Beneficiary to convert the survivor portion of a joint and
survivor annuity into a single sum distribution upon the Participant’s death; or

(8) to pay increased benefits that result from a Plan amendment.

3.2. Amount Required to be Distributed by Required Beginning Date and Later
Payment Intervals. The amount that must be distributed on or before the
Participant’s Required Beginning Date (or, if the Participant dies before
distributions begin, the date distributions are required to begin under
Section 2.2(a) or (b)) is the payment that is required for one payment interval.
The second payment need not be made until the end of the next payment interval
even if that payment interval ends in the next calendar year. All of the
Participant’s benefit accruals as of the last day of the first Distribution
Calendar Year will be included in the calculation of the amount of the annuity
payments for payment intervals ending on or after the Participant’s Required
Beginning Date.

3.3. Additional Accruals After First Distribution Calendar Year. Any additional
benefits accruing to the Participant in a calendar year after the first
Distribution Calendar Year will be distributed beginning with the first payment
interval ending in the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in
which such benefit accrues.

Section 4. Requirements For Annuity Distributions That Commence During
Participant’s Lifetime.

4.1. Joint Life Annuities Where the Beneficiary Is Not the Participant’s Spouse.
If the Participant’s interest is being distributed in the form of a joint and
survivor annuity for the joint lives of the Participant and a nonSpouse
Beneficiary, annuity payments to be made on or after the Participant’s Required
Beginning Date to the Designated Beneficiary after the Participant’s death must
not at any time exceed the applicable percentage of the annuity payment for such
period that would have been payable to the Participant, using the table set
forth in § 1.401(a)(9)-6, Q&A 2(c)(2), in the manner described in Q&A 2(c)(1),
of the regulations, to determine the applicable percentage. If the form of
distribution combines a joint and survivor annuity for the joint lives of the
Participant and a nonSpouse Beneficiary and a period certain annuity the
requirement in the preceding sentence will apply to annuity payments to be made
to the Designated Beneficiary after the expiration of the period certain.

 

- 62 -

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

4.2. Period Certain Annuities. Unless the Participant’s Spouse is the sole
Designated Beneficiary and the form of distribution is a period certain and no
life annuity, the period certain for an annuity distribution commencing during
the Participant’s lifetime may not exceed the applicable distribution period for
the Participant under the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in § 1.401(a)(9)-9,
Q&A-2, of the regulations for the calendar year that contains the Annuity
Starting Date. If the Annuity Starting Date precedes the year in which the
Participant reaches age 70, the applicable distribution period for the
Participant is the distribution period for age 70 under the Uniform Lifetime
Table set forth in § 1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-2, of the regulations plus the excess of
70 over the age of the Participant as of the Participant’s birthday in the year
that contains the Annuity Starting Date. If the Participant’s Spouse is the
Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary and the form of distribution is a
period certain and no life annuity, the period certain may not exceed the longer
of the Participant’s applicable distribution period, as determined under this
Section 4.2, or the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Participant
and the Participant’s Spouse as determined under the Joint and Last Survivor
Table set forth in § 1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-3, of the regulations, using the
Participant’s and Spouse’s attained ages as of the Participant’s and Spouse’s
birthdays in the calendar year that contains the Annuity Starting Date.

Section 5. Requirements For Minimum Distributions After the Participant’s Death.

5.1. Death After Distributions Begin. If the Participant dies after distribution
of his or her interest begins in the form of an annuity meeting the requirements
of this article, the remaining portion of the Participant’s interest will
continue to be distributed over the remaining period over which distributions
commenced.

5.2. Death Before Distributions Begin.

(a) Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. Except as provided in the
adoption agreement, if the Participant dies before the date distribution of his
or her interest begins and there is a Designated Beneficiary, the Participant’s
entire interest will be distributed, beginning no later than the time described
in Section 2.2(a) or (b), over the life of the Designated Beneficiary or over a
period certain not exceeding:

(i) unless the Annuity Starting Date is before the first Distribution Calendar
Year, the Life Expectancy of the Designated Beneficiary determined using the
Beneficiary’s age as of the Beneficiary’s birthday in the calendar year
immediately following the calendar year of the Participant’s death: or

(ii) if the Annuity Starting Date is before the first Distribution Calendar
Year, the Life Expectancy of the Designated Beneficiary determined using the
Beneficiary’s age as of the Beneficiary’s birthday in the calendar year that
contains the Annuity Starting Date.

(b) No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies before the date
distributions begin and there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of
the year following the year of the Participant’s death, distribution of the
Participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31 of the calendar
year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.

 

- 63 -

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

(c) Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distributions to Surviving Spouse Begin. If
the Participant dies before the date distribution of his or her interest begins,
the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated
Beneficiary, and the surviving Spouse dies before distributions to the surviving
Spouse begin, this Section 5 will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the
Participant, except that the time by which distributions must begin will be
determined without regard to Section 2.2(a).

Section 6. Changes to Annuity Payment Period.

6.1. Permitted Changes. An annuity payment period may be changed only in
association with an annuity payment increase described in Section 3.1(d) of this
Appendix or in accordance with Section 6.2.

6.2. Reannuitization. An annuity payment period may be changed and the annuity
payments modified in accordance with that change if the conditions in
Section 6.3 are satisfied and:

(a) the modification occurs when the Participant retires or in connection with a
Plan termination;

(b) the payment period prior to modification is a period certain without life
contingencies; or

(c) the annuity payments after modification are paid under a qualified joint and
survivor annuity over the joint lives of the Participant and a Designated
Beneficiary, the Participant’s Spouse is the sole Designated Beneficiary, and
the modification occurs in connection with the Participant becoming married to
such Spouse.

6.3. Conditions. The conditions in this Section 6.3 are satisfied if:

(a) the future payments after the modification satisfy the requirements of
§ 401(a)(9) of the Code, § 1.401(a)(9) of the regulations, and this Appendix
(determined by treating the date of the change as a new Annuity Starting Date
and the actuarial present value of the remaining payments prior to modification
as the entire interest of the Participant);

(b) for purposes of § 415 and § 417 of the Code, the modification is treated as
a new Annuity Starting Date;

(c) after taking into account the modification, the annuity (including all past
and future payments) satisfies the requirements of § 415 of the Code
(.determined at the original Annuity Starting Date, using the interest rates and
mortality tables applicable to such date); and

 

- 64 -

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

(d) the end point of the period certain, if any, for any modified payment period
is not later than the end point available to the employee at the original
Annuity Starting Date under § 401(a)(9) of the Code and this Appendix.

Section 7. Payments to a Surviving Child.

7.1. Special rule. For purposes of this Appendix, payments made to a
Participant’s surviving child until the child reaches the age of majority (or
dies if earlier) shall be treated as if such payments were made to the surviving
Spouse to the extent the payments become payable to the surviving Spouse upon
cessation of the payments to the child.

7.2. Age of majority. For purposes of this Section, a child shall be treated as
having not reached the age of majority if the child has not completed a
specified course of education and is under the age of 26. In addition, a child
who is disabled within the meaning of § 72(m)(7) of the Code when the child
reaches the age of majority shall be treated as having not reached the age of
majority so long as the child continues to be disabled.

Section 8. Definitions.

8.1. Actuarial Gain. The difference between an amount determined using the
actuarial assumptions (i.e., investment return, mortality, expense, and other
similar assumptions) used to calculate the initial payments before adjustment
for any increases and the amount determined under the actual experience with
respect to those factors. Actuarial Gain also includes differences between the
amount determined using actuarial assumptions when an annuity was purchased or
commenced and such amount determined using actuarial assumptions used in
calculating payments at the time the Actuarial Gain is determined.

8.2. Designated Beneficiary. The individual who is designated by the Participant
(or the Participant’s surviving Spouse) as the Beneficiary of the Participant’s
interest under the Plan and who is the Designated Beneficiary under § 401(a)(9)
of the Code and § 1.401(a)(9)-4 of the regulations.

8.3. Distribution Calendar Year. A calendar year for which a minimum
distribution is required. For distributions beginning before the Participant’s
death, the first Distribution Calendar Year is the calendar year immediately
preceding the calendar year which contains the Participant’s Required Beginning
Date. For distributions beginning after the Participant’s death, the first
Distribution Calendar Year is the calendar year in which distributions are
required to begin pursuant to Section 2.2.

8.4. Eligible Cost-Of-Living Index. An index described in paragraphs (b)(2),
(b)(3) or (b)(4) of § 1.401(a)(9)-6, Q&A-14, of the regulations.

8.5. Life Expectancy. Life Expectancy as computed by use of the Single Life
Table in § 1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-1, of the regulations.

 

- 65 -

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

8.6. Required Beginning Date. The Required Beginning Date of a Participant is
April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the calendar year in which
the Participant attains age 70 1/2 or the calendar year in which the Participant
retires, except that benefit distributions to a 5-Percent Owner must commence by
April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the
Participant attains age 70 1/2.

8.7. 5-Percent Owner. A Participant is treated as a 5-Percent Owner for purposes
of this Amendment if the Participant is a 5-percent Participant as defined in
§ 416 of the Code at any time during the Plan year ending with or within the
calendar year in which such owner attains age 70 1/2. Once distributions have
begun to a 5-Percent Owner under this Amendment, they must continue to be
distributed, even if the Participant ceases to be a 5 -percent owner in a
subsequent year.

Section 9. Transition Rule. F-3 and F-3A of § 1.401(a)(9)-1 of the 1987 proposed
regulations, A-1 of § 1.401(a)(9)-6 of the 2001 proposed regulations,
§ 1.401(a)(9)-6T of the temporary regulations, or a reasonable and good faith
interpretation of the requirements of § 401(a)(9) of the Code (as elected by the
employer) apply in lieu of the requirements of Sections 3, 4 and 6 of this
Appendix for purposes of determining minimum required distributions for calendar
years 2003, 2004, and 2005.
