 4.3 Prior Deferred Amounts. The Sponsor has assumed deferred compensation obligations (“Assumed Amounts”) of certain Participants who were
participants of the Cendant Corporation Savings Restoration Plan (the “Cendant Plan”). Assumed Amounts have become obligations of the Sponsor hereunder and have been credited to the Accounts of applicable participants hereunder. Assumed
Amounts credited to Accounts hereunder shall remain subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such amounts under the terms of the Cendant Plan and any applicable Participant election, including any election made pursuant to the
First Amendment to the Cendant Plan; provided, that the Plan Administrator hereunder may prescribe rules and regulations governing the Assumed Amounts, including the ability of Participants to revise the investment vehicles in which the Assumed
Amounts are deemed to be invested. 
 Article V - Earnings 
 5.1 Investment Direction. Each Participant has the right to select, subject to the approval of the Committee, the Investment Fund in which the Deferral Contributions and any related Earnings will be deemed to have been
invested as of the date such amounts have been allocated to the Participant’s Account. Any selection made by the Participant shall be reflected on the Enrollment Agreement or in such other manner acceptable to the Committee. The Committee, in
its sole discretion, may allow, limit or prohibit changes by a Participant to his or her selected Investment Funds. Neither the Employer nor the Committee is liable for any loss resulting from the Investment Fund vehicles offered for investment of a
Participant’s Account nor from a Participant’s direction of the investment of any part of his or her Account. Any Participant election may be subject to the approval of any trustee of any trust holding Deferred Contributions. 

5.2 Calculation of Earnings and Losses. As of each Valuation Date, earnings or losses will be credited to each Participant’s Account for the period
beginning with the previous Valuation Date and ending with the current Valuation Date. Earnings and losses shall be based on rate of return (including a negative return) determined by the performance of the Investment Fund. 







 Article VI - Vesting 
 6.1 Vesting. A Participant’s Deferral Contributions and any related Earnings shall at all times be fully vested. 
 Article
VII - Distribution and Form of Benefits 
 7.1 Timing of Distribution. Except as provided in Section 7.3 hereof, amounts credited to a
Participant’s Account shall be distributed to the Participant or Beneficiary as soon as administratively feasible following the later to occur of the close of the Plan Year during which the Participant has incurred a Termination of Employment
and the date which is seven months following the Participant’s Termination of Employment. 
 7.2 Form of Benefit. Amounts distributable
pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof will be paid in any of the following forms: (i) in one lump sum or (ii) in installments payable for a term not to exceed five years. Distributions shall be made in the form elected by the Participant in
writing in a manner acceptable to the Committee. Such election shall be made in such Participant’s Enrollment Agreement at the time of such Participant’s initial participation in the Plan and can only be amended in accordance with the
procedures established and maintained by the Committee. Notwithstanding the above, if at the time of a Participant’s Termination of Employment the Account balance of a Participant on the date of such Participant’s Termination of Employment
is less than $25,000, the Committee shall distribute the entire Account balance in a single lump sum. 
 7.3 Unforeseeable Emergency
Distribution. Notwithstanding Section 7.1, in the event a Participant (or a former Participant who is then receiving a distribution of his or her Accounts pursuant to the installment method under Section 7.2) suffers an
Unforeseeable Emergency (as hereinafter defined), the Company shall distribute to such Participant as a hardship benefit (the “Hardship Benefit”) all or any portion of the Participant’s Accounts, but only such amount necessary to
satisfy the Unforeseeable Emergency, net of tax withstanding. An Unforeseeable Emergency shall be distributed at such times as the Committee shall determine, and the Participant’s Accounts shall be reduced by the amount so distributed.
Unforeseeable Emergency shall have the meaning set forth under Section 409A of the Code and/or the regulations thereunder as in effect from time to time. The Committee shall make the decision of whether or not, and to what extent, an
Unforeseeable Emergency is payable to the Participant, based on the facts and circumstances of the case. The Committee’s decision as to whether or not an Unforeseeable Emergency is payable, and to what extent it is payable, shall be final,
conclusive and binding on all persons. 
 7.4 Change of Control. As soon as possible following a Change of Control, each Participant shall be
paid his or her entire Account balance in a single lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after such Change of Control. Change of Control shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the Company’s assets, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. 







 7.5 Income Inclusion Under Section 409A of the Code. If the Internal Revenue Service or a court of
competent jurisdiction determines that Plan benefits are includible for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of a Participant before his or her actual receipt of such benefits due to a failure of the Plan to satisfy the requirements of
Code Section 409A, the Participant’s Account balance shall be distributed to the Participant in a lump sum cash payment immediately following such determination or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter; provided, however, that
such payment may not exceed the amount required to be included in income as a result of the failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 
 Article VIII - Beneficiary Designation 
 8.1 Designation. Upon enrollment in the Plan, each Participant shall file with the
Committee a written designation of one or more persons as the Beneficiary who shall be entitled to receive the amount, if any, payable under the Plan upon the Participant’s death. A Participant may, from time to time, revoke or change his or
her Beneficiary designation without the consent of any prior Beneficiary by filing a new such designation with the Committee on a form designated by the Committee for such purpose. The most recent such designation received by the Committee shall be
controlling and shall be effective upon receipt and acceptance by the Committee; provided, however, that no designation, or change or revocation thereof, shall be effective unless received by the Committee prior to the Participant’s death.

 8.2 Failure to Designate Beneficiary. If no such Beneficiary designation is in effect at the time of a Participant’s death, or if no
designated Beneficiary survives the Participant, or if such designation conflicts with law, the Participant’s estate shall be deemed to have been designated as the Beneficiary and shall receive the payment of the amount, if any, payable under
the Plan upon the Participant’s death. If the Committee is in doubt as to the right of any person to receive such amount, the Committee may retain such amount, without liability for any interest thereon, until the rights thereto are determined,
or the Committee may pay such amount into any court of appropriate jurisdiction and such payment shall be a complete discharge of the obligations of the Employer under the Plan. 
 8.3 Payment to Representatives. If the Committee determines that a Participant or Beneficiary is legally incapable of giving valid receipt and discharge for the payment due from this Plan, such amounts
shall be paid to a duly appointed and acting guardian, if any. If no such guardian is appointed and acting, the Committee may retain such amount, without liability for any interest thereon, until the rights thereto are determined, or the Committee
may pay such amount into any court of appropriate jurisdiction on behalf of the Participant or Beneficiary and such payment shall be a complete discharge of the obligations of the Employer under the Plan. 
 Article IX - Plan Administration 
 9.1 Powers and Duties of
Administrative Committee. The Committee shall have absolute discretion with respect to the operation, interpretation and administration of the Plan. The Committee’s powers and duties shall include, but not be limited to:

benefits under, the Plan. Any action of the Committee may be taken by a vote or written consent of the majority of the Committee members entitled to act. Any Committee member shall be entitled to represent the Committee, including the signing of any
certificate or other written direction, with regard to any action approved by the Committee. 
 9.2 Expenses. All expenses, including, but not
limited to any investment fees, administrative fees and income taxes, incurred with respect to the Plan shall be paid by the Employer. 
 9.3 Claims
Procedure. In the event a claim by a Participant relating to the amount of any distribution is denied, such person will be given written notice by the Committee of such denial, which notice shall set forth the reason for denial. The
Participant may, within sixty (60) days after receiving the notice, request a review of such denial by filing notice in writing with the Committee. The Committee, in its discretion, may request a meeting with the Participant to clarify any
matters it deems pertinent. The Committee will render a written decision within sixty (60) days after receipt of such request, stating the reason for its decision. If the Committee is unable to respond within sixty (60) days, an additional
sixty (60) days may be taken by the Committee to respond. The Participant will be notified if the additional time is necessary by the end of the initial sixty (60) day period. The determination of the Committee as to any disputed questions
or issues arising under the Plan and all interpretations, determinations and decisions of the Committee with respect to any claim hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons.

 10.2 Termination. Subject to Section 409A and Section 10.3, the Sponsor, by action of its Board or such other governing body
charged with the management of the Sponsor, or its 








 
designee, may terminate this Plan at any time. Upon termination of the Plan, all future Deferral Contributions hereof will be suspended. However, earnings
will continue to be credited in accordance with Article V until such time that a complete distribution has been made. Upon such Plan termination, distributions from the Plan will be made in accordance with Article VII as if no such termination had
occurred. 
 10.3 Protection of Benefit. No amendment or termination of this Plan shall reduce the rights of any Participant with respect to
amounts allocated to a Participant’s Account prior to the date of such amendment or termination without the Participant’s express written consent.

assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant. In no event shall the Employer make any payment under this Plan to any person or entity other than the Participant or Beneficiary, unless required by law.

 11.4 Employment. The adoption and maintenance of this Plan does not constitute a contract between the Employer and any
Participant and is not consideration for the employment of any person. Nothing contained herein gives any Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Employer or derogates from the right of the Employer to discharge any Participant at
any time and for any reason without regard to the effect of such discharge upon his or her rights as a Participant in the Plan. 
 11.5 Indemnity of

 Article XII - Funding 
 12.1 Unfunded Plan. This Plan is intended to be unfunded for tax purposes and all distributions hereunder shall be made out of the general assets of the Employer. No Participant or Beneficiary shall have any right, title,
interest, or claim in or to any assets of the Employer other than as an unsecured creditor. The Plan constitutes only an unsecured commitment by the Employer to pay benefits to the extent, and subject to the limitations, provided for herein.
Although, this Plan constitutes an “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), it is intended to cover only a select group of management or
highly compensated employees pursuant to Sections 201, 301 and 401 of ERISA. 
 12.2 Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employer shall
contribute to an irrevocable grantor trust amounts allocated to a Participant’s Account under Article IV and V hereof. The assets of such trust shall be available to the creditors of the Employer in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency. To the
extent of the trust assets, amounts due under the Plan shall be payable first from such trust to Plan Participants before any claim is made against the Employer. The Committee may provide direction to the trustee or custodian on behalf of the
Employer as it deems necessary to provide for the proper distribution of benefits from the trust.
