 DANAHER CORPORATION & SUBSIDIARIES 
 SAVINGS PLAN 
 WHEREAS, Danaher determined that it was in the best interest of
the eligible employees of Danaher and the Affiliated Employers to maintain two qualified employee benefit plans, one plan for the benefit of those employees not covered by any collective bargaining agreement and another plan for the benefit of those
employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan Sponsor established the Danaher Corporation &
Subsidiaries Savings Plan (the “Plan”), effective as of November 30, 2002, as a qualified profit sharing plan with a cash or deferred arrangement under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the
“Code”) for the benefit of eligible employees of the Plan Sponsor and the Affiliated Employers who are not covered by any collective bargaining agreement and any other employers as may adopt this Plan with the consent of the Plan Sponsor;
and 
 WHEREAS, amounts representing the accounts of employees and former employees of the Plan Sponsor and the Affiliated Employers who are
not covered by any collective bargaining agreement were transferred from the Danaher Corporation & Subsidiaries Retirement & Savings Plan (the “Prior Plan”) to the Trustee of the Plan on or about November 30, 2002;
and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan Sponsor subsequently amended the Plan effective December 27, 2002, effective July 1, 2003, and effective
September 30, 2003, to reflect the various mergers into the Plan of the qualified plans formerly maintained by GLI International LLC, Hydrolab LLC, Reliable Power Meters, Inc., Orbisphere Laboratories Overseas, LLC, Hach Company with respect to
its subsidiary, Environmental Test Systems, Inc., Willett America, Inc., and Raytek Corporation and to provide for the prefunding of certain Employer Contributions to the extent permitted by law; and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan Sponsor amended and restated the Plan effective December 27, 2003 (i) to incorporate the prior three amendments to the Plan,
(ii) to provide for a Unilateral Employer Contribution to be made as of each Valuation Date and a Discretionary Employer Contribution to be made as of the last day of a Plan Year, both effective December 27, 2003, and (iii) to provide
for the transfer of this Plan of account balances maintained under the Thomson Retirement Savings Plan on behalf of employees of Thomson Industries, Inc. and its participating subsidiaries who are not covered by any collective bargaining agreement,
effective December 31, 2003; and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan Sponsor subsequently amended the Plan effective March 31, 2004, and effective
June 1, 2004, to reflect the various mergers into the Plan of the qualified plans maintained by Quantic Industries, Inc. and ELE International, LLC; and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan Sponsor amended and restated the Plan effective December 27, 2003, except as otherwise specifically provided, to (i) incorporate the prior two amendments to the Plan, (ii) conform
certain provisions of the Plan to the manner in 

  

 1 








 
which the Plan has been and is being administered, and (iii) to reflect the various mergers into the Plan of the qualified plans maintained by Motion
Engineering, Inc. effective December 31, 2004, Accu-Sort Systems, Inc. effective January 3, 2005, KaVo America Corporation effective January 3, 2005, SenDx Medical, Inc. effective December 31, 2004, and Radiometer America, Inc.
effective December 31, 2004; and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan Sponsor subsequently amended the Plan seven (7) times, effective
December 27, 2004, December 30, 2005, June 1, 2006, September 29, 2006, December 27, 2006, April 30, 2007, and October 12, 2007, to (i) incorporate various plan amendments over the
three (3) year period, (ii) to change the plan year from a fiscal year ending on December 26 to the calendar year effective January 1, 2007, (iii) to comply with the final regulations under Code Section 401(k) and
401(m), (iv) to permit a delay in the commencement of required minimum distributions, (v) to comply with the final regulations under Code Section 415, (vi) to modify certain Plan provisions pertaining to settlor responsibilities
and fiduciary responsibilities, and (vii) to comply with the requirements of Sections 1165(a) and (e) of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 1994, as amended, with respect to participants who are bona fide residents of Puerto Rico;
and 
 WHEREAS, the Appointing Committee desires to amend and restate the Plan, effective January 1, 2008, to incorporate the prior
seven (7) amendments to the 2004 restatement to comply with the determination letter requirements of Rev. Proc. 2007-44 and to comply with the applicable provisions of the Pension Protection Act of 2006. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in accordance with the foregoing, the Appointing Committee has adopted this amendment and restatement of the Plan, as hereinafter stated,
to be effective as of January 1, 2008, except as shall be otherwise specifically provided in this Plan. 
 It is intended that this
Plan, together with the related Trust Agreement, shall constitute a “profit sharing plan with a cash or deferred arrangement” that shall meet the requirements of the Code and ERISA, and that the Plan shall be interpreted, wherever
possible, to comply with the Code and ERISA, each as amended from time to time, and all formal regulations, rulings, and guidance issued thereunder.

 1.1 The term “ACMS” shall mean ACMS,
Inc. or an Affiliated Employer thereof that shall have been participating in the ACMS Plan as of September 30, 1996. 
 1.2 The term
“ACMS Plan” shall mean the former Acme-Cleveland Corporation and Subsidiaries Retirement Savings Plan.

 1.6 The term “Actual Contribution Percentage Test” shall mean the test that shall be considered to be met with respect to
an Eligible Participant Testing Group for a Plan Year if either Subsection (a) or Subsection (b) below is true: 
 (a) The Actual

Percentage for Nonhighly Compensated Eligible Participants for the last preceding Plan Year shall be used. 
 Furthermore, if the Plan Administrator elects to apply Code Section 410(b)(4)(B) in determining that, with respect to an Eligible Participant
Testing Group for the Plan Year, the portion of this Plan providing Matching Contributions meets Code Section 410(b), the Plan Administrator may elect to exclude from the Eligible Participant Testing Group for purposes of the Actual
Contribution Percentage Test all Nonhighly Compensated Eligible Participants who have not attained age twenty-one (21). 
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Plan Administrator determines that (i) for a Plan Year this Plan satisfies the requirements of Code Sections 401(k), 401(m), 401(a)(4), and/or 410(b) only if aggregated with one or more plans of the Employer, as the term

with this Plan, then the Actual Contribution Percentage Test of the Eligible Participant Testing Group for the Plan Year shall be determined using the Actual Contribution Percentages of (1) the Eligible Participants in such Eligible Participant
Testing Group and (2) all eligible employees in such other plans who would otherwise satisfy the requirements of such Eligible Participant Testing Group if such employees were participants in this Plan. 
 1.7 The term “Actual Deferral Percentage” shall mean, with respect to an Eligible Employee Testing Group for a Plan Year, the ratio

group for the Plan Year. 
 (b) The Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Eligible Employees in such group for the Plan Year is
not greater than two (2) multiplied by the Actual Deferral Percentage for Nonhighly Compensated Eligible Employees in such group for the Plan Year, and the difference between the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Eligible

may elect to have a percentage of his or her Basic Compensation for each Payroll Period during which he or she shall be an Eligible Employee and shall have in effect an election with respect thereto withheld by his or her Employer and paid to the
Trust Fund as a Salary Deferral Contribution. The designated percentage of an Eligible Employee’s Basic Compensation that he or she may elect to have withheld as a Salary Deferral Contribution shall be as follows: (i) with respect to a
Nonhighly Compensated Eligible Employee, (A) effective 

  

 29 








 
prior to January 1, 2009, a whole percentage between one percent (1%) and twenty percent (20%), inclusive and (B) effective on and after
January 1, 2009, a whole percentage between one percent (1%) and seventy-five percent (75%), inclusive; and (ii) with respect to a Highly Compensated Eligible Employee, (A) a whole percentage between one percent (1%) and
twenty percent (20%), inclusive, if the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee is not an Eligible Participant and (B) otherwise, a whole percentage between one percent (1%) and nine percent (9%), inclusive; provided, however, that the Plan

to, requiring that the designated percentage of a Highly Compensated Eligible Employee’s Basic Compensation to be withheld as a Salary Deferral Contribution shall not exceed a specified percentage determined by the Plan Administrator.

 (b) Elections. Subject to any procedures established by the Plan Administrator pursuant to Subsection (d) below, a Participant
may make, change, or revoke an election with respect to Salary Deferral Contributions only as described in Paragraphs (i) through (iii) below: 
 (i) Initial Election and Changes. An Eligible Employee may make his or her initial election to have Salary Deferral Contributions made on his or her behalf by properly completing an election form and filing it

Eligible Employee has not filed a properly completed election form with the Plan Administrator by such date, starting with the Payroll Period that begins on or as soon as administratively possible after the Eligible Employee files a properly
completed election form with the Plan Administrator so long as the Eligible Employee remains an Eligible Employee on the first (1st) day of such Payroll Period. 
 An Eligible Employee who has in effect an election to have Salary Deferral Contributions made on his or her behalf may change such election by properly completing an election form and filing it with the Plan
Administrator. Such election shall be effective for successive Payroll Periods starting with the Payroll Period beginning as soon as administratively possible on or after the Eligible Employee files the election form with the Plan Administrator so
long as the individual remains an Eligible Employee on the first day of such Payroll Period. 
 (ii) Revocations. An Eligible
Employee may at any time revoke an existing election with respect to Salary Deferral Contributions by filing with the Plan Administrator a new election form that provides for such revocation. Any such revocation shall be effective for Payroll
Periods beginning as soon as administratively possible after the date that the Eligible Employee files the election form with the Plan Administrator. 
 (iii) Deemed Elections. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan Administrator, the Salary Deferral Contributions designated to be made on behalf of 

  

 30 








 
an Eligible Employee on the last election form properly completed by the Eligible Employee and filed with the Plan Administrator shall continue until the

behalf elections with respect to Salary Deferral Contributions shall be in effect for a Payroll Period shall withhold the designated Salary Deferral Contribution from each such Eligible Employee’s Basic Compensation in accordance with the
respective such election. Then, as soon as administratively possible after each Valuation Date, the Employer shall pay to the Trustee the aggregate Salary Deferral Contributions that were withheld from its Eligible Employees’ Basic Compensation
for the Valuation Period that ends on such date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding an election with respect to Salary Deferral Contributions made by a Highly Compensated Eligible Employee, the Plan Administrator may take any such actions as
the Plan Administrator may determine to be necessary or desirable in order to avoid distributions of Excess Contributions pursuant to Section 3.9(b)(iii) of this Plan, including, but not limited to, prohibiting the payment to the Trustee of
Salary Deferral Contributions that would otherwise be so paid on behalf of the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee for the remainder of a Plan Year and specifying the amount of any Salary Deferral Contribution that would otherwise be paid to the
Trustee on behalf of the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee as may be so paid. 
 (d) Election Form Procedures. The Plan
Administrator shall adopt and may amend procedures to be followed by Eligible Employees in electing to make, to change, or to revoke Salary Deferral Contributions and, pursuant thereto, may, among other actions, format election forms, establish
deadlines for elections, develop an approval process for elections, and determine the methods under which a Participant’s Salary Deferral Contributions may be distributed to him or her, if necessary, pursuant to Section 3.9 or 3.11 of this
Plan. 
 (e) Suspension of Salary Deferral Contributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing Subsections, an Eligible Employee who has

 (a) Required Contributions. With respect to each Employer that shall be a Contributing Employer for purposes of this Section, as of each Valuation Date, (a) with respect to each individual who was an
Eligible Participant of the Employer at any time during the one (1) or more Payroll Periods included in the Valuation Period ending on such Valuation Date and on whose behalf a Salary Deferral Contribution was made for any such Payroll Period,
there shall be made a Matching Contribution with respect to each such Salary Deferral Contribution in an amount equal to the Match Amount; and (b)

  

 31 








 
as soon as administratively possible after the Valuation Date, the Employer shall pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the aggregate Matching Contributions
so determined for the Valuation Period ending on such date; provided, however, that, if the Valuation Date is a Forfeiture Allocation Date for the Employer, the Employer shall pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such
aggregate Matching Contributions over (i) the balance in the Employer’s Forfeitures Account (if any) as of such Valuation Date and (ii) any amount thereof as shall have been earmarked as of such Valuation Date to be used as all or
part of the Employer’s Unilateral Employer Contribution (if any) for the respective Valuation Period pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Plan. 
 (b) Definition. For purposes of this Section, the term “Match Amount” shall mean, with respect to an Eligible Participant, an amount equal to the lesser of (A) fifty percent (50%) of the
Salary Deferral Contribution or (B) three percent (3%) of the Eligible Participant’s Basic Compensation for the Payroll Period from which the Salary Deferral Contribution was withheld. 
 3.5 Additional Employer Contributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan: 
 (a) Corrective Contributions. An Employer shall make any such contribution to the Trust Fund on behalf of an Eligible Employee or an Eligible
Participant as the Plan Administrator may determine shall be required to correct a Participant’s Account, including, but not limited to, a correction to include an individual who was erroneously excluded from participation in this Plan.

 (b) Required Contributions. An Employer shall make any such contribution to the Trust Fund on behalf of an Eligible Employee or an
Eligible Participant as the Plan Administrator may determine shall be required to comply with USERRA. 
 3.6 Transferred

transferred to the Trust Fund cash or other property constituting: 
 (i) a direct rollover of an eligible rollover distribution from
(1) a qualified plan described in Code Section 401(a) or 403(a), excluding after-tax employee contributions, (2) an annuity contact described in Code Section 403(b), excluding after-tax employee contributions, or (3) an
eligible plan under 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 
 (ii) a participant contribution of an eligible rollover distribution from (1) a qualified plan described in Code Section 401(a) or 403(a),
(2) an annuity contact described in Code Section 403(b), or (3) an eligible plan under 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

 (b) Trustee-to-trustee Transfers. 
 (i) Individual Transfer. A Participant shall be entitled, upon receipt of the consent of the Plan Administrator, to have transferred to the Trust
Fund, in the form of a trustee-to-trustee transfer, cash or other property representing his or her account in, or benefits under, another qualified trust or a qualified annuity plan. 
 (ii) Plan Transfer. Pursuant to any merger of this Plan with another qualified plan, or any transfer of assets to this Plan from another
qualified plan, the Plan Administrator may determine that all or any portion of the amount trustee-to-trustee transferred to the Plan on a Participant’s behalf shall be deemed to be a Transferred Contribution made on the Participant’s
behalf. 
 3.7 Conditional Employer Contributions. Any contribution made to the Trust Fund by an Employer pursuant to
Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.5 of this Plan shall be conditioned upon its deductibility under Code Section 404 and shall be subject to reversion to the Employer in accordance with Section 3.8 of this Plan. 
 3.8 Reversion of Employer Contributions. No contribution made to the Trust Fund by an Employer pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.5
of this Plan may revert to the Employer except as follows:

 33 








 3.9 Actual Deferral Percentage Test. 
 (a) In General. As soon as possible after the end of each Plan Year, the Plan Administrator shall determine whether the Actual Deferral Percentage
Test is met with respect to each Eligible Employee Testing Group for the Plan Year; provided, however, that the Actual Deferral Percentage Test shall be deemed to have been met with respect to an Eligible Employee Testing Group for the Plan Year if
all of the Eligible Employees in such group are (i) Highly Compensated Eligible Employees for the Plan Year or (ii) Nonhighly Compensated Eligible Employees for the Plan Year. If the Actual Deferral Percentage Test is not met with respect
to an Eligible Employee Testing Group, the Plan Administrator shall take the steps in Subsection (b) below. 
 (b) Corrections for
Compliance with Actual Deferral Percentage Test. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in order that the Actual Deferral Percentage Test shall be met for the Plan Year with respect to an Eligible Employee Testing Group, the Plan
Administrator shall determine and cause to be distributed the Excess Contributions of the Eligible Employee Testing Group for the Plan Year in accordance with Paragraphs (i) through (vi) below: 
 (i) Reduction of Deferral Percentages. The Plan Administrator shall determine a reduced Deferral Percentage for one (1) or more Highly
Compensated Eligible Employees in the Eligible Employee Testing Group pursuant to the following leveling process: (A) first, the Deferral Percentage for the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group with the highest Deferral Percentage
shall be reduced to equal the greater of the percentage that enables the Actual Deferral Percentage Test to be met or the second (2nd) highest Deferral Percentage of any Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group; (B) secondly, the
Deferral Percentage for the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group with the second (2nd) highest Deferral Percentage (before the reduction in (A) above) shall be reduced to equal the greater of the percentage that enables the
Actual Deferral Percentage Test to be met or the third (3rd) highest Deferral Percentage of any Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group; and (C) such leveling process shall be continued only until the Actual Deferral Percentage
Test is met when such reduced Deferral Percentages are used; provided, however, that, in the event that more than one (1) Highly Compensated Eligible Employee has the same Deferral Percentage, each such Eligible Employee’s Deferral
Percentage shall be reduced (if at all) to the same percentage, which shall be determined on a pro-rata basis if necessary. 
 (ii)
Determination of Excess Contributions. The Plan Administrator shall determine the Excess Contributions as the sum, with respect to the group of Highly Compensated Eligible Employees whose Deferral Percentages were reduced pursuant to
Paragraph (i) above, of the product, calculated for each such Highly Compensated Eligible Employee, of (A) the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee’s Basic Compensation as was used to determine his or her Deferral Percentage before
such reduction and (B) the difference between (I) such Deferral Percentage and (II) his or her Deferral Percentage after such reduction. 
  

 34 








 (iii) Determination of Individual Excess Contributions. The Plan Administrator shall determine,
with respect to the Highly Compensated Eligible Employees in the Eligible Employee Testing Group, his or her Individual Excess Contributions as the difference between his or her Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions and his or her Applicable
Salary Deferral Contributions after any reduction thereof in accordance with the following leveling process: (A) first, the Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions of the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group with the highest
Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions shall be reduced such that either (I) his or her Individual Excess Contributions equal the Excess Contributions or (II) his or her Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions equal the second
(2nd) highest Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions of any Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group, based on whichever reduction is less; (B) secondly, the Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions of the Highly Compensated
Eligible Employee in such group with the second (2nd) highest Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions shall be reduced such that either (I) the aggregate Individual Excess Contributions so determined equal the Excess Contributions or (II)
his or her Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions equal the third (3rd) highest Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions of any Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group, based on whichever reduction is less; and (C) such
leveling process shall be continued only until the aggregate Individual Excess Contributions so determined equal the Excess Contributions; provided, however, that, in the event that more than one (1) Highly Compensated Eligible Employee has the
same amount of Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions, each such Eligible Employee’s Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions shall be reduced (if at all) to the same amount, which shall be determined on a pro-rata basis if necessary.

 (iv) Distribution of Distributable Excess Contributions. On any Distribution Date, the Plan Administrator shall cause to be
distributed to each Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in the Eligible Employee Testing Group (other than any such Highly Compensated Eligible Employee who has no balance in his or her Salary Deferral Contributions Subaccount) his or her
Distributable Excess Contributions (if any) (or any such lesser amount as remains in his or her Salary Deferral Contributions Subaccount), plus or minus any earnings or losses, respectively, allocable thereto as determined pursuant to Paragraph
(vi)(A) below. 
 (v) Forfeiture of Matching Contributions. Any Matching Contributions attributable to a Participant’s
Distributable Excess Contributions, plus or minus any earnings or losses, respectively, allocable thereto as determined pursuant to Paragraph (vi)(B) below, shall be forfeited as of the Distribution Date applicable pursuant to Paragraph
(iv) above. 
 (vi) Determination of Earnings or Losses. 
 (A) Distributable Excess Contributions. The earnings or losses allocable to a Participant’s Distributable Excess Contributions as of the
applicable Distribution Date shall equal (I) the aggregate earnings or losses allocable to the Participant’s Salary Deferral Contributions for the Plan Year multiplied by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the
Participant’s Distributable Excess 

  

 35 








 
Contributions and the denominator of which is (i) the balance in the Participant’s Salary Deferral Contributions Subaccount as of the first
(1st) day of the Plan Year plus (ii) the Salary Deferral Contributions made on the Participant’s behalf for the Plan Year. 
 (B) Forfeited Matching Contributions. The earnings or losses allocable to a Participant’s Matching Contributions forfeited pursuant to Paragraph (v) above as of the applicable Distribution Date shall equal (I) the
earnings or losses allocable to the Matching Contributions made on the Participant’s behalf for all or the portion of the Plan Year preceding the Distribution Date multiplied by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the
Matching Contributions to be forfeited and the denominator of which is (i) the balance in the Participant’s Matching Contributions Subaccount as of the first (1st) day of the Plan Year plus (ii) the Matching Contributions made on
the Participant’s behalf for all or the portion of the Plan Year preceding the Distribution Date. 
 (c) Retesting. In the event
that, subsequent to the time that the Plan Administrator has determined compliance for a Plan Year with the Actual Deferral Percentage Test with respect to an Eligible Employee Testing Group, a Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in such group who
has received a distribution of Distributable Excess Contributions pursuant to Subsection (b) above notifies the Plan Administrator pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(i) of this Plan of an amount to be designated as Excess Deferrals for the Plan
Year, the Plan Administrator shall again determine whether the Actual Deferral Percentage Test is met with respect to the Eligible Employee Testing Group for the Plan Year and, if not, the Plan Administrator shall take the steps in Subsection
(b) above; where, for such purposes, the Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions of such Highly Compensated Eligible Employee shall be increased by the difference between the amount of the Distributable Excess Contributions that he or she
received and the amount of the newly designated Excess Deferrals. 
 (d) Definitions. For purposes of this Section: 
 (i) The term “Distributable Excess Contributions” shall mean, as of a Distribution Date for a Highly Compensated Eligible Employee who
has Individual Excess Contributions for a Plan Year, the difference (if positive) between such Individual Excess Contributions and any amount of the Applicable Salary Deferral Contributions made on behalf of the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee
already distributed to him or her as of the Distribution Date pursuant to Section 3.11(b) of this Plan. 
 (ii) The term
“Distribution Date” shall mean, with respect to a Plan Year, a date selected by the Plan Administrator during the next succeeding Plan Year. 
 (iii) The term “Individual Excess Contributions” shall mean, with respect to a Highly Compensated Eligible Employee in an Eligible Employee Testing Group for a Plan Year, the amount (if any)
determined for the Highly Compensated Eligible Employee for the Plan Year pursuant to Subsection (b)(iii) above. 
  

 36 








 (e) Incorporation by Reference. Salary Deferral Contributions are subject to the limits of Code
Section 401(k)(3), as described above. Plan provisions relating to the Code Section 401(k)(3) limits are to be interpreted and applied in accordance with Code Sections 401(k)(3) and 401(a)(4), which are hereby incorporated by reference,
and in such manner as to satisfy such other requirements relating to Code Section 401(k) as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury from time to time. 
 3.10 Actual Contribution Percentage Test. 
 (a) In General. As soon as possible after the end
of each Plan Year, the Plan Administrator shall determine whether the Actual Contribution Percentage Test is met with respect to each Eligible Participant Testing Group for the Plan Year; provided, however, that the Actual Contribution Percentage
Test shall be deemed to have been met with respect to an Eligible Participant Testing Group for the Plan Year if all of the Eligible Participants in such group are (i) Highly Compensated Eligible Participants for the Plan Year, or
(ii) Nonhighly Compensated Eligible Participants for the Plan Year. If the Actual Contribution Percentage Test is not met with respect to an Eligible Participant Testing Group, the Plan Administrator shall take the steps in Subsection
(b) below. 
 (b) Corrections for Compliance with Actual Contribution Percentage Test. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Plan, in order that the Actual Contribution Percentage Test shall be met for the Plan Year with respect to an Eligible Participant Testing Group, the Plan Administrator shall determine and cause to be forfeited and/or distributed the Excess
Aggregate Contributions of the Eligible Participant Testing Group for the Plan Year in accordance with Paragraphs (i) through (vi) below: 
 (i) Reduction of Contribution Percentages. The Plan Administrator shall determine a reduced Contribution Percentage for one (1) or more Highly Compensated Eligible Participants in the Eligible Participant
Testing Group pursuant to the following leveling process: (A) first, the Contribution Percentage for the Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such group with the highest Contribution Percentage shall be reduced to equal the greater of the
percentage that enables the Actual Contribution Percentage Test to be met or the second (2nd) highest Contribution Percentage of any Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such group; (B) secondly, the Contribution Percentage for the
Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such group with the second (2nd) highest Contribution Percentage shall be reduced to equal the greater of the percentage that enables the Actual Contribution Percentage Test to be met or the third
(3rd) highest Contribution Percentage of any Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such group; and (C) such leveling process shall be continued only until the Actual Contribution Percentage Test is met when such reduced Contribution
Percentages are used; provided, however, that, in the event that more than one (1) Highly Compensated Eligible Participant has the same Contribution Percentage, each such Eligible Participant’s Contribution Percentage shall be reduced (if
at all) to the same percentage, which shall be determined on a pro-rata basis if necessary. 
  

 37 








 (ii) Determination of Excess Aggregate Contributions. The Plan Administrator shall determine the
Excess Aggregate Contributions as the sum, with respect to the group of Highly Compensated Eligible Participants whose Contribution Percentages were reduced pursuant to Paragraph (i) above, of the product, calculated for each such Highly
Compensated Eligible Participant, of (A) the Highly Compensated Eligible Participant’s Basic Compensation as was used to determine his or her Contribution Percentage before such reduction and (B) the difference between (I) such
Contribution Percentage and (II) his or her Contribution Percentage after such reduction. 
 (iii) Determination of Individual Excess
Aggregate Contributions. The Plan Administrator shall determine, with respect to each Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in the Eligible Participant Testing Group, his or her Individual Excess Aggregate Contributions as the difference
between his or her Applicable Matching Contributions and his or her Applicable Matching Contributions after any reduction thereof in accordance with the following leveling process: (A) first, the Applicable Matching Contributions of the Highly
Compensated Eligible Participant in such group with the highest Applicable Matching Contributions shall be reduced such that either (I) his or her Individual Excess Aggregate Contributions equal the Excess Aggregate Contributions or (II) his or
her Applicable Matching Contributions equal the second (2nd) highest Applicable Matching Contributions of any Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such group, based on whichever reduction is less; (B) secondly, the Applicable
Matching Contributions of the Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such group with the second (2nd) highest Applicable Matching Contributions shall be reduced such that either (I) the aggregate Individual Excess Aggregate
Contributions so determined equal the Excess Aggregate Contributions or (II) his or her Applicable Matching Contributions equal the third (3rd) highest Applicable Matching Contributions of any Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in such
group, based on whichever reduction is less; and (C) such leveling process shall be continued only until the aggregate Individual Excess Aggregate Contributions so determined equal the Excess Aggregate Contributions; provided, however, that, in
the event that more than one (1) Highly Compensated Eligible Participant has the same amount of Applicable Matching Contributions, each such Eligible Participant’s Applicable Matching Contributions shall be reduced (if at all) to the same
amount, which shall be determined on a pro-rata basis if necessary. 
 (iv) Distribution of Distributable Excess Aggregate
Contributions. On any Distribution Date, the Plan Administrator shall cause to be distributed to each Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in the Eligible Participant Testing Group (other than any such Highly Compensated Eligible Participant
who has no balance in his or her Matching Contributions Subaccount) his or her Distributable Excess Aggregate Contributions (if any) (or any such lesser amount thereof as remains in his or her Matching Contributions Subaccount), plus or minus any
earnings or losses, respectively, allocable thereto as determined pursuant to Paragraph (vi)(A) below. 
 (v) Forfeiture of Forfeitable
Excess Aggregate Contributions. On any Distribution Date, the Plan Administrator shall cause to be forfeited, with respect to each Highly Compensated Eligible Participant in the Eligible Participant Testing 

  

 38 








 
Group (other than any such Highly Compensated Eligible Participant who has no balance in his or her Matching Contributions Subaccount), his or her
Forfeitable Excess Aggregate Contributions (if any) (or any such lesser amount thereof as remains in his or her Matching Contributions Subaccount), plus or minus any earnings or losses, respectively, allocable thereto as determined pursuant to
Paragraph (vi)(B) below. 
 (vi) Determination of Earnings or Losses. 
 (A) Distributable Excess Aggregate Contributions. The earnings or losses allocable to a Participant’s Distributable Excess Aggregate
Contributions as of the applicable Distribution Date shall equal (I) the aggregate earnings or losses allocable to the Participant’s Matching Contributions for the Plan Year multiplied by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the

fractions thereof) of such Period of Severance equals or exceeds the greater of five (5) or the number of such years of the Participant’s participation; or 
 (iii) The date that the Participant’s Employment terminates.

percent (5%) per annum interest) would be less than fifty-one percent (51%) of the value of the Participant’s Nonforfeitable Account. 
 (c) Administrative Matters. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, delay the date for distribution of the benefit payable to or on behalf of a Participant to the extent necessary to determine the
benefit properly, or, notwithstanding Sections 6.3, 6.4, and 7.1 of this Plan, the Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, commence payment of the benefit payable to or on behalf of a Participant despite the fact that a timely claim therefor has

 6.15 Required Minimum Distributions. 
 (a) General Rules. 
 (i) Effective
Date. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, payment of any benefit to or on behalf of a Participant shall be subject to the calculations provided in Subsections (a) through (f), as applicable: 
 (ii) Precedence. The requirements of this Section 6.15 will take precedence over any inconsistent provisions of the Plan. The Plan generally
permits lump sum distributions only. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section 6.15, which provisions are drawn from the Model Amendment published by the Internal Revenue Service, that relate to payments over a period of time (i.e., life
expectancy(ies)) shall not be the basis for permitting distributions to Participants (or beneficiaries of a deceased Participant) in any form other than a lump sum distribution. Whenever a Participant is required to receive a distribution under
Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, such distribution shall be in the form of a lump sum distribution. 
 (iii) Requirements of Treasury
Regulations Incorporated. All distributions required under this Section 6.15 will be determined and made in accordance with the Treasury regulations under Section 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code. 
 (iv) TEFRA Section 242(b)(2) Elections. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 6.15, distributions may be made under a
designation made before January 1, 1984, in accordance with Section 242(b)(2) of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (“TEFRA”) and the provisions of the Plan that relate to Section 242(b)(2) of TEFRA. 
 (b) Time and Manner of Distribution. 
 (i) Required Beginning Date. The Participant’s entire interest will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, to the Participant no later than the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. 
 (ii) 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, except as provided in Subsection (f) below, 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. 
 (B) If
the Participant’s surviving spouse is not the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary, then, except as provided in Subsection (f)

  

 66 








 
below, 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 begin, this Subsection (b)(ii), other than Subsection (b)(ii)(A), will apply as if the surviving spouse were the Participant. 
 For purposes of this Subsection (b)(ii) and Subsection (d), unless Subsection (b)(ii)(D) applies, distributions are considered to begin on the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. If Subsection (b)(ii)(D)
applies, distributions are considered to begin on the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse under Subsection (b)(ii)(A). 
 (iii) Forms of Distribution. Unless the Participant’s interest is distributed in the form of a single sum on or before the Required Beginning Date, as of the first Distribution Calendar Year distributions
will be made in accordance with Subsections (c) and (d) of this Section 6.15. 
 (c) Required Minimum Distributions During
Participant’s Lifetime. 
 (i) Amount of Required Minimum Distribution For Each Distribution Calendar Year. During the
Participant’s lifetime, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each Distribution Calendar Year is the lesser of 
 (A) the
quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury regulations, using the Participant’s age as of the
Participant’s birthday in the Distribution Calendar Year; or 
 (B) if the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary for the
Distribution Calendar Year is the Participant’s spouse, the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the number in the Joint and Last Survivor Table set forth in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury
regulations, using the Participant’s and spouse’s attained ages as of the Participant’s and spouse’s birthdays in the Distribution Calendar Year. 
 (ii) Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions Continue Through Year of Participant’s Death. Required minimum distributions will be determined under this Subsection (c) beginning with the first
Distribution Calendar Year and up to and including the Distribution Calendar Year that includes the Participant’s date of death. 
  

 67 








 (d) Required Minimum Distributions After Participant’s Death. 
 (i) Death On or After Date Distributions Begin. 
 (A) Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is a Designated Beneficiary, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each
Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the longer of the remaining Life Expectancy of the Participant or the remaining Life Expectancy
of the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary, determined as follows: 
 (I) The Participant’s remaining Life Expectancy is
calculated using the age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced by one for each subsequent year. 
 (II) If the Participant’s
surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary, the remaining Life Expectancy of the surviving spouse is calculated for each Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death using the surviving
spouse’s age as of the spouse’s birthday in that year. For Distribution Calendar Years after the year of the surviving spouse’s death, the remaining Life Expectancy of the surviving spouse is calculated using the age of the surviving
spouse as of the spouse’s birthday in the calendar year of the spouse’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent calendar year. 
 (III) If the Participant’s surviving spouse is not the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary, the Designated Beneficiary’s remaining Life Expectancy is calculated using the age of the beneficiary in the year following the
year of the Participant’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent year. 
 (B) No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant
dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year after the year of the Participant’s death, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each Distribution Calendar Year
after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the Participant’s remaining Life Expectancy calculated using the age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced
by one for each subsequent year. 
 (ii) Death Before Date Distributions Begin. 
 (A) Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. Except as provided in Subsection (f) below, if the Participant dies before the date
distributions begin and there is a Designated Beneficiary, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s
Account Balance by the remaining Life Expectancy of the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary, determined as provided in Subsection (d)(i) above. 
  

 68 








 (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. 
 (C) Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distributions to Surviving Spouse Are
Required to Begin. If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin, the Participant’s surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary, and the surviving spouse dies before distributions are required to
begin to the surviving spouse under Subsection (b)(ii)(A) above, this Subsection (d)(ii) will apply as if the surviving spouse were the Participant. 
 (e) Definitions. 
 (i) Designated Beneficiary. The individual who is designated as the
Beneficiary under the Plan and is the designated beneficiary under Section 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 1.401(a)(9)-1, Q&A-4, of the Treasury regulations. 
 (ii) 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 under Subsection (b)(ii). The required minimum distribution for the Participant’s first distribution calendar year will be made on or
before the Participant’s required beginning date. The required minimum distribution for other distribution calendar years, including the required minimum distribution for the distribution calendar year in which the Participant’s required
beginning date occurs, will be made on or before December 31 of that distribution calendar year. 
 (iii) Life Expectancy. Life
expectancy as computed by use of the Single Life Table in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury regulations. 
 (iv)
Participant’s Account Balance. The Account balance as of the last valuation date in the calendar year immediately preceding the distribution calendar year (valuation calendar year) increased by the amount of any contributions made and
allocated or forfeitures allocated to the Account balance as of dates in the valuation calendar year after the valuation date and decreased by distributions made in the valuation calendar year after the valuation date. The Account balance for the
valuation calendar year includes any amounts rolled over or transferred to the Plan either in the valuation calendar year or in the distribution calendar year if distributed or transferred in the valuation calendar year. 
  

 69 








 (v) Required Beginning Date. The date specified in Section 1.95 of the Plan when
distributions under Section 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code are required to begin. 
 (f) Election to Apply 5 Year Rule to
Distributions to Designated Beneficiaries. If the Participant dies before distributions begin and there is a Designated Beneficiary, distribution to the Designated Beneficiary is not required to begin by the date specified in Subsection (b)(ii)
of this Section 6.15, but the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed to the Designated Beneficiary by December 31, of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death. 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 either the Participant or the surviving spouse begin this election will apply
as if the surviving spouse were the Participant.

certified copy of the death certificate of a Participant. The failure by a Participant or the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant to furnish such information or proof promptly and in good faith, or the furnishing of false or fraudulent information
or proof by the Participant or Beneficiary, shall be sufficient reason for the denial, suspension, or discontinuance of benefits thereto and the recovery of any benefits paid in reliance thereon. 
 7.3 Notice of Address Change. Each Participant and any Beneficiary of a deceased Participant who is or may be entitled to a benefit under this
Plan shall notify the Plan Administrator in writing of any change of his or her address.

(b) below. 
 The Plan Administrator shall furnish such notice of a claim denial within ninety (90) days after the date that the
Plan Administrator received the claim. If special circumstances require an extension of time for deciding a claim, the Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing thereof within such ninety (90)-day period and shall specify the date a
decision on the claim shall be made, which shall not be more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date that the Plan Administrator received the claim. Then, the Plan Administrator shall furnish any denial notice on the claim by the
later date so specified. 
 (b) Appeal Procedure. A claimant or his or her duly authorized representative shall have the right to file

Plan’s administrative processes and safeguards), and to submit comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim, even if the information was not submitted or considered in the initial determination. 
 (c) Decision Upon Appeal. In considering an appeal made in accordance with Subsection (b) above, the Plan Administrator shall review and
consider any written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim, even if the information was not submitted or considered in the initial determination by the claimant or his or her duly authorized representative. The
claimant or his or her representative shall not be entitled to appear in person before any representative of the Plan Administrator. 
 The Plan
Administrator shall issue a written decision on an appeal within sixty (60) days after the date the Plan Administrator receives the appeal together with any written comments relating thereto. If special circumstances require an extension of
time for a decision on an appeal, the Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing thereof within such sixty (60)-day period. Then, the Plan Administrator shall furnish a written decision on the appeal as soon as possible but no later
than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date that the Plan Administrator received the appeal. The decision on the appeal shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant and shall include specific references to the
pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based. If the claimant loses on appeal, the decision shall include the following information provided in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant: (1) the specific reason(s) for the
adverse determination; (2) reference to the specific Plan provisions on which the determination is based; (3) a statement of the claimant’s right to receive at no cost information and copies of documents relevant to the claim, even if
such information was not relied upon in making determinations; and (4) a statement of the claimant’s rights to sue under ERISA. 
 7.5 Status, Responsibilities, Authority, and Immunity of Plan Administrator. 
 (a) Status of Plan Administrator and

Administrator shall have absolute and exclusive discretion to formulate and to adopt any and all standards for use in any actuarial calculations required in connection with this Plan and rules, 

  

 72 








 
regulations, and procedures that it deems necessary or desirable to effectuate the terms of this Plan, including, but not limited to, procedures governing
applications and claims for Plan benefits and appeals of claim denials; provided, however, that the Plan Administrator shall not adopt a rule, regulation, or procedure that shall conflict with this Plan or the Trust Agreement. Subject to the terms
of any applicable contract or agreement, any interpretation or application of this Plan or the Trust Agreement by the Plan Administrator, or any rules, regulations, and procedures duly adopted by the Plan Administrator, shall be final and binding
upon Employees, Participants, Beneficiaries, and any and all other persons dealing with this Plan. No other provision of this Plan, whether by its terms or the fact of its inclusion herein, nor the absence from this Plan of any provision, shall be
construed as limiting the generality of the foregoing except to the extent that any provision included in this Plan specifically limits the authority, responsibility, or discretion of the Plan Administrator. 
 (c) Delegation of Authority and Reliance on Agents. The Plan Administrator or any fiduciary designated thereby in accordance with Subsection
(a) above may, in its discretion, allocate ministerial duties and responsibilities for the operation and administration of this Plan to one or more persons, who may or may not be Employees, and employ or retain one or more persons, including
accountants and attorneys, to render advice with regard to any responsibility of such fiduciary. 
 (d) Reliance on Documents. Neither
the Plan Administrator nor any fiduciary designated thereby in accordance with Subsection (a) above shall incur any liability in relying or in acting upon any instrument, application, notice, request, letter, telegram, or other paper or

Immunity of Plan Administrator. Except as and to the extent prohibited by ERISA, neither the Plan Administrator nor any fiduciary designated thereby in accordance with Subsection (a) above shall be liable for any of its acts or
omissions, the acts or omissions of any other such fiduciary, or the acts or omissions of any employee or agent authorized or retained pursuant to Subsection (c) above by the Plan Administrator or other such fiduciary, except any act of any
such person as constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 7.6 Facility of Payment. If the Plan Administrator shall
determine that a Participant or the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant to whom a benefit is payable is unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness, accident, or other incapacity, the Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, direct
the Trustee to make any payment otherwise due to the Participant or Beneficiary to the legal guardian or other representative of the Participant or Beneficiary. Furthermore, the Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, direct the Trustee to make
any payment otherwise due to a minor Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant to the guardian of the minor or the person having custody of the minor. Any payment made in accordance with this Section to a person other than a Participant
or Beneficiary shall, to the extent thereof, be a complete discharge of the Trust Fund’s obligation to the Participant or Beneficiary. 
  

 73 








 7.7 Unclaimed Benefits. If the Plan Administrator cannot locate a Participant or the Beneficiary
of a deceased Participant to whom payment of a benefit under this Plan is required, following a diligent effort by the Plan Administrator to locate the Participant or Beneficiary, such benefit shall be forfeited; provided that the benefit shall be
restored upon the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s subsequent application therefor.

 9.2 Right to Terminate. The Plan Sponsor reserves the right to
terminate this Plan, by action duly taken by its Board of Directors, at any time as the Plan Sponsor may deem advisable. Upon termination of this Plan, (a) the Plan Administrator shall determine the value of the Accounts in accordance with
Article IV of this Plan; (b) the Plan Administrator shall direct the Trustee to distribute the balance in each Account to or on behalf of the respective Participant in a lump sum, in cash or in kind, provided that no in-kind distribution shall
be made of a life annuity; and (c) each Employer on whose behalf an amount is being held in a suspense account pursuant to Section 4.8(b) of this Plan shall receive a reversion of such amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon Plan
termination, if distribution of Accounts shall be prohibited under Code Sections 401(k)(2)(B) and 401(k)(10), the Plan Administrator shall direct the Trustee to continue the Trust Fund, shall direct the merger of this Plan with any other defined
contribution plan that may be maintained or established by the Plan Sponsor or another Employer, or shall take any other such actions as the Plan Administrator shall determine to be consistent with such Code Sections.

 78 








 
distributions under a terminated plan which, had it not been terminated, would have been aggregated with this Plan under Code Section 416(g)(2)(A)(i).

 ARTICLE XI 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
 11.1 Named Fiduciaries. The Plan Administrator and the Trustee
shall each be a “named fiduciary,” as such term is defined in Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA, to the extent of their respective duties under this Plan. 
 11.2 Agreement Not An Employment Contract. This Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between any Employer and any Participant or Employee or to be a consideration or an inducement for the
employment of any Participant or Employee. Nothing contained in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Participant or Employee the right to be retained in the service of the Employer or to interfere with the right of any Employer to discharge any
Participant or Employee at any time regardless of the effect that such discharge shall have upon such individual as a Participant in this Plan. 
 11.3 Nonalienation of Benefits. 
 (a) Prohibition Against Alienation or Assignment. Subject to Subsections
(b) and (c) below, benefits payable under this Plan shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution, or levy of any kind, either voluntary or
involuntary, including any such liability that is for alimony or other payments for the support of a spouse or former spouse, or for the support of any other relative, before payment thereof is received by the person entitled to the benefits under
this Plan; and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, charge, or otherwise dispose of any right to benefits payable under this Plan shall be void; provided, however, that this Subsection shall not prohibit the
Plan Administrator from offsetting, pursuant to Section 11.4 of this Plan, any payments due to a Participant, a Beneficiary of a deceased Participant, or any other person who may be entitled to receive a benefit under this Plan, and provided
further that this Subsection shall not preclude the enforcement of a federal tax levy, the collection of a judgment by the United States of an unpaid tax assessment, or any arrangement excluded from the term “assignment” or
“alienation” in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury. 
 (b) Exception for Qualified Domestic Relations
Order. Notwithstanding Subsection (a) above or any other provision of this Plan, the Plan Administrator shall comply with a “qualified domestic relations order,” as such term is defined in Code Section 414(p). The Plan
Administrator shall establish a procedure to determine whether a domestic relations order that purports to affect benefits under this Plan is a qualified domestic relations order and, if so, to administer distributions thereunder. To the extent
provided under a qualified domestic relations order, the former spouse of a Participant shall be treated as the surviving spouse of the Participant upon his or her death for all purposes under this Plan. A qualified domestic relations order may
require payment of benefits to an alternate payee before the Participant has separated from service on or after the date on which the Participant attains or would have attained the “earliest retirement age” under this Plan, where the
“earliest retirement age” shall be as defined in Code Section 414(p)(4)(B). 
  

 80 








 (c) Exception for Certain Judgments and Settlements. Notwithstanding Subsection (a) above or
any other provision of this Plan, the Plan Administrator shall comply with a judgment, order, decree, or settlement agreement described in Code Section 401(a)(13)(C) and obtained, issued, or entered into, as applicable, to the extent that it
relates to this Plan. The Plan Administrator shall establish a procedure to determine whether an order or requirement that purports to affect benefits under this Plan meets the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(13)(C) and, if so, to
administer distributions thereunder. 
 11.4 Offset of Benefits. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, in the event
that a Participant or the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant owes any amount to the Trust Fund, whether as a result of an overpayment or otherwise, the Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, offset the amount owed or any percentage thereof in
any manner against any payments due from the Trust Fund to the Participant or Beneficiary. 
 11.5 Merger or Consolidation of Plan. In
the event of a merger or consolidation of this Plan with any other plan or a transfer of assets or liabilities of this Plan to any other plan, a Participant shall be entitled to receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or
transfer (if the successor or transferee plan had then been terminated) that is equal to or greater than the benefit that he or she would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer (if this Plan had then
been terminated). 
 11.6 Merger or Consolidation of Employer. If an Employer is merged or consolidated with another business
organization, or another business organization acquires all or substantially all of an Employer’s assets, such organization may become an Employer hereunder by action of its board of directors and by action of the board of directors of such
prior Employer, if still existent. Such a change in Employers shall not be deemed a termination of the Employer’s participation in this Plan by either the predecessor or successor Employer. 
 11.7 Suspension of Employer Contributions. Each Employer reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or suspend contributions to this
Plan, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time and for any period or periods and to discontinue contributions to this Plan at any time. 
 11.8 Plan Continuance Voluntary. Although it is the intention of the Plan Sponsor that this Plan shall be continued, this Plan is entirely voluntary on the part of the Plan Sponsor and each other Employer, and
the continuance of this Plan and Employer contributions to this Plan are not assumed as a contractual obligation of the Plan Sponsor or any other Employer. 
 11.9 Savings Clause. If any term, covenant, or condition of this Plan, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall to any extent be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this
Plan, or the application of any such term, covenant, or condition to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has 

  

 81 








 
been held to be invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and, except to the extent of any such invalidity or unenforceability, this Plan and
each term, covenant, and condition hereof shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 11.10 Governing
Law. This Plan shall be construed, regulated, and administered under the laws of the State of Georgia to the extent not pre-empted by ERISA or any other federal law. 
 11.11 Construction. As used in this Plan, the masculine and feminine gender shall be deemed to include the neuter gender, as appropriate, and the singular or plural number shall be deemed to include the other,
as appropriate, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary. 
 11.12 Headings No Part of Agreement. Headings of articles,
sections, and subsections of this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference; they constitute no part of this Plan and are not to be considered in the construction of this Plan. 
 11.13 Indemnification. The Plan Sponsor hereby agrees to indemnify any of its current or former Employees or any current or former members of its
board of directors to the full extent of any expenses, penalties, damages, or other pecuniary loss that any such indemnitee may suffer as a result of his or her responsibilities, obligations, or duties in connection with this Plan or fiduciary
responsibilities actually performed in connection with this Plan. Such indemnification shall be paid by the Plan Sponsor to the indemnitee to the extent that fiduciary liability insurance is not available to cover the payment of such items, but in
no event shall any such amount be paid out of Plan assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section shall not relieve any current or former Employee or member of an Employer’s board of directors serving in a fiduciary capacity of his or her
fiduciary responsibilities or liabilities to this Plan for breaches of fiduciary obligations, nor shall this Section be deemed to violate any provision of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA as it may be interpreted from time to time by the United States
Department of Labor and any courts of competent jurisdiction.

 FIRST AMENDMENT 
 TO THE 
 DANAHER CORPORATION & SUBSIDIARIES SAVINGS PLAN 
 This is the First Amendment to the Danaher Corporation & Subsidiaries Savings Plan (the “Plan”), which was amended and restated effective January 1, 2008. Pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Plan, the Appointing
Committee of Danaher Corporation (the “Committee”) has reserved unto itself the right to amend the Plan. The Committee desires to amend the Plan, effective January 1, 2009, to permit a Participant to take an in-service withdrawal of
all or any portion of his or her Nonforfeitable Account on or after the date the Participant incurs a Disability, and, accordingly, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Plan, the Committee hereby amends the Plan in following particulars, effective as
of January 1, 2009: 
 1. 
 Amend Article I of the Plan by adding the following new Section 1.30A immediately following Section 1.30 of the Plan: 
 “1.30A The term “Disability” shall mean a physical or mental condition arising after an Employee has become a Participant that totally and permanently prevents the Participant from engaging in his or her regular
employment duties for his or her Employer, which such disability shall be deemed to be permanent if it is anticipated that it shall last for at least six (6) months. The determination as to whether a Participant is totally and permanently
disabled shall be made (i) on medical evidence by a licensed physician designated by the Plan Administrator, (ii) on evidence that the Participant is eligible for disability benefits under any long-term disability plan sponsored by his or
her Employer, (iii) on evidence that the Participant is eligible for a Disability Pension under the terms of the Danaher Corporation & Subsidiaries Pension Plan, or (iv) on evidence that the Participant is eligible for total and
permanent disability benefits under the Social Security Act.” 
 2. 
 Amend Section 2.3 of the Plan by adding the following sentence at the end of 

  

 A-1 








 
such Section: 
 “Effective November 12, 2008,
employees of Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc. (“Sea-Bird”) who were actively employed by Sea-Bird on November 11, 2008 shall be “Eligible Participants” as defined in the Plan for purposes of any contribution and allocation of
Unilateral Employer Contribution, Discretionary Employer Contribution, and Matching Contributions under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.4 of the Plan on and after November 12, 2008, notwithstanding any eligibility provision of the Plan
to the contrary.” 
 3. 
 Amend Section 3.1 of the Plan by deleting such Section in its entirety and substituting the following therefor: 
 “3.1
Unilateral Employer Contributions. With respect to each Employer that shall be a Contributing Employer for purposes of this Section, as of each Valuation Date, (a) a Unilateral Employer Contribution shall be made on behalf of the group
of individuals each of whom shall have been an Eligible Participant of the Employer at any time during the Valuation Period ending on the Valuation Date in an amount equal to a percentage of the Eligible Participant’s Basic Compensation for the
Valuation Period as the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion may determine for all Controlled Group Employers, where such percentage shall be greater than or equal to zero percent (0%) and less than or equal to three percent (3%) of the
aggregate Basic Compensation of such Eligible Participants for such Valuation Period; and (b) as soon as administratively possible after the Valuation Date, the Employer shall pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the Unilateral Employer
Contribution so determined for the respective Valuation Period; provided, however, that, if the Valuation Date is a Forfeiture Allocation Date for the Employer, the Employer shall pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such
Unilateral Employer Contribution over the balance (if any) in the Employer’s Forfeitures Account as of such Valuation Date.” 
 4.

 Amend Section 3.4 of the Plan by deleting such Section in its entirety and substituting the following therefor: 
 “3.4 Matching Contributions. 
 (a) Required Contributions. With respect to each Employer that shall be a Contributing Employer for purposes of this Section, as of each Valuation Date, (a) with respect to each individual who was an Eligible Participant of the
Employer at any time during the one (1) or more Payroll Periods included in the Valuation Period ending on such Valuation Date and on whose behalf a Salary Deferral Contribution was made for any such Payroll Period, there shall be made a
Matching Contribution with respect to each such Salary Deferral Contribution in an amount equal to the Match Amount; and (b) as soon as administratively possible after the Valuation Date, the Employer shall pay to 

  

 A-2 








 
the Trustee an amount equal to the aggregate Matching Contributions so determined for the Valuation Period ending on such date; provided, however, that, if
the Valuation Date is a Forfeiture Allocation Date for the Employer, the Employer shall pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such aggregate Matching Contributions over (i) the balance in the Employer’s Forfeitures
Account (if any) as of such Valuation Date and (ii) any amount thereof as shall have been earmarked as of such Valuation Date to be used as all or part of the Employer’s Unilateral Employer Contribution (if any) for the respective
Valuation Period pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Plan. 
 (b) Definition. For purposes of this Section, the term “Match
Amount” shall mean, with respect to an Eligible Participant, an amount equal to the lesser of (A) a percentage of the Eligible Participant’s Salary Deferral Contribution for the Payroll Period as the Plan Administrator in its sole
discretion may determine for all Controlled Group Employers, where such percentage shall be greater than or equal to zero percent (0%) and less than or equal to fifty percent (50%), or (B) three percent (3%) of the Eligible
Participant’s Basic Compensation for the Payroll Period from which the Salary Deferral Contribution was withheld.” 
 5. 

Amend Section 5.01(c) of the Plan by deleting such Section in its entirety and substituting the following therefor:

any) that the Participant incurs a Disability or dies while he or she is an Employee.” 
 6. 
 Amend Article VI of the Plan by adding the following new Section 6.16 at the end of such Article: 
 “6.16 In-service Distributions upon Disability. An Employee who incurs a Disability may, at any time, elect to receive all or any portion of
his or her Nonforfeitable Account.”
