provided by Article V;

(b) Effective May 20, 2004, a matching contribution on behalf of each Participant in the amount of fifty

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall the amount contributed by any

Highly Compensated Employees, if such amounts were contributed to the Plan.

In no event shall the amount of the contribution exceed the
maximum amount deductible by a Participating Company for the Fiscal Year with respect to which the contribution is made under Section 404(a) of the Code or the corresponding provision of any subsequent tax law.

Effective January 1, 2004, if as a result of Code Section 402(g) dollar limitation on the amount of the annual Section 401(k)
Contributions or the Code Section 401(a)(17) dollar limitation on Compensation, the Participant does not receive a total matching contribution pursuant to Section 3.1(b) under the payroll matching procedure, an additional matching
contribution shall be made on the Participants behalf so that the Participants total matching contribution is equal to 100% of the Participants Combined Basic Savings which does not exceed 6% of the Participants Compensation
for that Plan Year.

3.2 Time of Payment of Contributions. A Participating Company may pay its contributions at such time or
times and in such amount or amounts as it may deem appropriate during the Fiscal Year for which each such contribution becomes due and for such period thereafter during which payment thereof may be permitted as a deduction for the previous Fiscal
Year under the Code.

Trustees. Payments may be in cash, Qualifying Employer Securities (including treasury stock or previously unissued stock of Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.), Qualifying Employer Real Property or in such other property of any kind as the Named

Fiduciary, based on the report of an independent appraiser.

3.4 Return of Contributions to Company. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan,
any contributions made by a Participating Company pursuant to Section 3.1 shall, to the extent permitted by Section 403(c) of ERISA, be returned to a Participating Company if:

(b) A tax deduction claimed for the contributions pursuant to Section 404 of the Code is denied to the Company by the Internal Revenue Service; or

(c) The IRS determines that the Plan is not tax-qualified under Section 401 of the Code.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no contributions may be returned to a Participating Company under the above provisions later than one
(1) year from the date a mistaken contribution is made, a tax deduction for a contribution is denied, or the IRS determines that the Plan is not tax-qualified, as the case may be. Further, except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the

ARTICLE V.

SECTION 401(K) CONTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Designation of Flexible Compensation. The books and
records of the Company shall designate twenty percent (20%) of each Participants Compensation for each payroll period as Flexible Compensation. Flexible Compensation shall for all purposes, tax or otherwise, be treated as part
of a Participants Compensation and the designation of such amount shall be relevant only for purposes of this Article V.

5.2
Section 401(k) Contributions. Notwithstanding Section 2.1 and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article V, any Participant may, at any time and from time to time, elect to have contributed to the Trust Fund out of
his Flexible Compensation, specified in multiples of one percent (1%), an amount which shall be designated a Section 401(k) Contribution and shall constitute a contribution to the Trust Fund by the Company on behalf of the Participant under the
provisions of Section 401(k) of the Code.

5.3 Election Rules.

(a) Method of Election. The Committee shall determine the method by which an election may be made pursuant to this Article V. Any such election
method must be consistent with the provisions of Section 401(k)(2) of the Code and (assuming such consistency) may include either an affirmative election procedure whereby Participants shall only be treated as having made an election upon
written direction of the Participants or a negative election procedure whereby Participants shall be deemed to have made an election until and unless a Participant files a written direction negating the election. Regardless of the method of election
determined by the Committee, Participants shall be given prompt and adequate notice thereof and thus be afforded an appropriate opportunity to exercise their rights under this Article V.

(b) Effective Date of Election. An election shall become effective (unless previously revoked) upon the first day of the payroll period of the
Company immediately following receipt by the Plan Administrator of the election.

(c) Revocation or Amendment. An election may be
made to change a Participants rate of Section 401(k) Contributions to any other rate authorized under Section 5.2 at any time. Such election shall be made in the manner, and shall be effective, as specified by the Committee. In
addition, an election may be made to discontinue future Section 401(k) Contributions at any time. Such election to discontinue future contributions shall be effective as specified in Section 2.3, unless the Participant is depositing
After-tax Savings into the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 4.2. Finally, the Plan Administrator shall have the right and obligation to reduce a Participants rate of Section 401(k) Contribution to any rate as necessary, from time to
time, in order to assure compliance by this Plan with the standards of Section 401(k)(3) of the Code.

5.4 Compensation
Reduction. For each payroll period, a Participants Compensation shall be reduced by the portion of a Participants Flexible Compensation, which such Participant has elected to have contributed by the Company to the Trust Fund as a
Section 401(k) Contribution (or such lesser amount determined by the Plan Administrator pursuant to Section 5.3(c)). A Participants Flexible Compensation for the payroll period in excess of such amount shall be paid to the
Participant as cash compensation for the period.

5.5 Limitations on Section 401(k) Contributions. Except as permitted under
Section 5.12 of the Plan and Section 414(v) of the Code, if applicable, the annual addition that may be contributed or allocated to a participants account under the plan for any limitation year shall not exceed the lesser of:

(a) Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000) as adjusted for increases in the cost-of-living under Section 415(d) of the Code;

(b) One Hundred percent (100%) of the participants compensation, within the meaning of Section 415(c)(3) of the Code, for the limitation
year.

(c) Such lesser amount which may be allowed in order to assure compliance by the Plan with one of the Actual Deferral Percentage
Tests set forth in Section 5.6.

Furthermore, the maximum amount of a Participants Section 401(k) Contributions for a calendar year shall
not exceed the amount in effect under Section 402(g)(5) for such calendar year.

5.6 Actual Deferral Percentage Tests.
The Actual Deferral Percentage Test shall be satisfied for a Plan Year if one of the following two tests is met for such Plan Year:

(a) The
Actual Deferral Percentage for the eligible Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Deferral Percentage of all other eligible Employees for the prior Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or

(b) The Actual Deferral Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Deferral Percentage of all other eligible Employees
for the prior Plan Year multiplied by 2.0, and the excess of the Actual Deferral Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year over all other eligible Employees for the prior Plan Year is not more than two percentage
points.

5.7 Recharacterization of Certain Section 401(k) Contributions. To the extent that contributions made on behalf
of a Participant pursuant to an election under Section 5.2 by a Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee would otherwise cause the Plan to fail to comply with the Actual Deferral Percentage Test set forth in Section 5.6, such
contributions shall constitute After-tax Savings by the Participant rather than Section 401(k) Contributions. Excess contributions for a Plan Year shall be recharacterized as After-tax Savings on the basis of the amount of contributions by, or
on behalf of, each Highly Compensated Employee starting with the Highly Compensated Employee having the highest dollar amount.

5.8
Coordination of After-tax Savings and Section 401(k) Contributions. A Section 401(k) Contribution is made in lieu of all or a portion of such Participants After-tax Savings deposits into the Trust Fund under
Section 4.2 of the Plan. Thus, the maximum After-tax Savings deposit which may be made by a Participant under Section 4.2 during any Fiscal Year is equal to (a) the amount which may be made under Section 4.2 without regard to
this Section 5.8, less (b) the Section 401(k) Contribution made on behalf of the Participant under Section 5.2.

the Company on the earliest date on which such Section 401(k) Contributions can reasonably be segregated from the Companys general assets. A statement showing the amount representing the Section 401(k) Contributions of each
Participant shall accompany each such payment.

(1) The Participants severance from
employment (within the meaning of Section 401(k)(2)(B) of the Code), death or Permanent Disability;

(a)(2) or (3) of this Section may withdraw his Section 401(k) Contributions during the Participants continued employment, as provided in Section 10.5 or Section 10.7, as applicable.

5.11 Effect of Termination of Plan or Discontinuance of Section 401(k) Contributions. In the event (a) the Plan is terminated or
partially terminated with respect to a Participating Company or particular group or class of Participants, or (b) the Company or any Participating Company discontinues the making of Section 401(k) Contributions, the election made by any
affected Participant under the provisions of this Article V shall be immediately null and void and of no further effect, and no additional amounts of such Participants Flexible Compensation shall be contributed to the Trust Fund by the Company
or the Participating Company.

5.12 Catch-up Contributions. All Participants who are eligible to make elective deferrals
under the Plan and who have attained age 50 before the close of the Plan Year shall be eligible to make catch-up contributions in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, Section 414(v) of the Code. Such catch-up contributions shall
not be taken into account for purposes of the provisions of the Plan implementing the required limitations of sections 402(g) and 415 of the Code. The Plan



19



---

shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the provisions of the Plan implementing the requirements of section 401(k)(3), 401(k)(11), 401(k)(12), 410(b), or
416 of the Code, as applicable, by reason of the making of such catch-up contributions.

5.13 Contribution Limitation. No
participant shall be permitted to have elective deferrals made under this Plan, or any other qualified plan maintained by the employer during any taxable year, in excess of the dollar limitation contained in section 402(g) of the Code in effect for
such taxable year, except to the extent permitted under Section 5.12 of the Plan and section 414(v) of the Code, if applicable.

amount of After-tax Savings (including recharacterized Section 401(k) contributions) for the Plan Year. This process is repeated until the Plans excess aggregate contributions are reduced to zero. Each Highly Compensated Employees
After-tax Savings (including recharacterized Section 401(k) contributions that are treated as excess aggregate contributions) shall consist first of unmatched After-tax Savings (including recharacterized Section 401(k) contributions), and
then to the extent necessary, matched Employee

After-tax Savings (including recharacterized Section 401(k) contributions). (A#4, effective January 1, 2006) Distributions of
credited amounts shall include any income attributable thereto to the extent required under the Code and applicable regulations thereunder.

6.7 Special Provision for Allocating Company Contributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, Company contributions pursuant to Sections 3.1(b) and 3.1(c) shall be allocated and applied to the accounts of
Participants who are not Highly Compensated Employees as if the reduction of contributions provided in the last subsection of Section 3.1(c) had not taken place. Company contributions shall be allocated and applied to the accounts of Highly
Compensated Employees after taking into account the reduction of contributions provided in the next to last paragraph of Section 3.1 so that no amounts constituting excess aggregate contributions (within the meaning of
Section 401(m)(6)(B) of the Code) are allocated to the Company Contribution Account of any Participant under this Article VI.

6.8
Allocation of Net Income. As of each Valuation Date, each Fund shall be charged or credited with the net earnings, gains, losses, Investment Expenses and the Pro Rata Share of Administrative Expenses as well as any appreciation or
depreciation in the market value using publicly issued fair market values when available or appropriate. To the extent that a Participants Subaccounts are invested in Funds that are accounted for as pooled assets or investments, the allocation
of earnings, gains and losses of each Participants accounts shall be based upon the total amount of funds so invested, in a manner proportionate to the Participants share of such pooled investment. To the extent that a Participants
Subaccounts are invested in Funds that are accounted for as segregated assets, the allocation of earnings, gains and losses from such assets shall be made on a separate and distinct basis.

6.9 Use of Forfeitures. Forfeitures, as described in Section 9.5(a), shall be applied in the following order: (a) first to
restore forfeitures of Terminated Participants readmitted to the Plan in accordance with Section 9.5(b) and unclaimed benefits previously reallocated in accordance with Section 9.6, (b) second to pay Plan expenses, and (c) third,
to reduce the Company Contributions.

6.10 Use of Unclaimed Benefits.

(a) Method of Allocation. Unclaimed benefits, as described in Section 19.10, shall be reallocated in the same manner as forfeitures as
provided in Section 6.9.

(b) Reduction in Forfeitures. If the Plan Administrator pays any unclaimed benefits, which had
previously been reallocated hereunder, the amount of such benefits shall reduce the amount of forfeitures otherwise reallocated pursuant to Section 6.9. In the event that forfeitures for the Fiscal Year in question are not sufficient to pay any
unclaimed benefits, the Company contribution for such Fiscal Year shall first be applied for such payment.

6.11 Allocation
Limitations.

(a) Maximum Additions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, the sum of: (1) the
total Additions made to the Account of a Participant under this Plan for any Fiscal Year; and (2) the annual additions (as defined in Section 415 of the Code) made to the account of a Participant under any other qualified
defined contribution plan maintained by the Company or any Affiliated Company, shall not exceed the Maximum Permissible Amount.



23



---

(b) Correction of Excess. If the Maximum Permissible Amount is exceeded in any Plan Year for any
Participant, the Plan shall distribute to the Participant any After-tax Savings or Section 401(k) Contributions made by the Participant to the Plan for the Plan Year to the extent such distribution would cause the excess to be reduced. If,
after returning such After-tax Savings or Section 401(k) Contributions to the Participant an excess still exists, such excess shall be corrected in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 415-6(b)(6) or such other
rules or procedures as the Internal Revenue Service shall allow.

(c) Further Limitations on Additions. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 6.11, the otherwise permissible annual additions for any Participant under this Plan shall be further reduced to the extent necessary, as determined by the Committee to prevent disqualification of the Plan
under Section 415 of the Code, which imposes additional limitations on the benefits payable to Participants who also may be participating in another tax-qualified pension, profit sharing, savings or stock bonus plan of the Company or any
Affiliated Company. The Committee shall advise affected Participants of any additional limitation of their annual Additions required by the preceding sentence.

6.12 Transfers From Other Qualified Plans.

(a) Manner of Rollover or Direct Transfer.
An Employee (including an Employee who is not a Participant) may rollover or transfer to this Plan amounts received from a retirement plan which are eligible to be rolled over or transferred to this Plan pursuant to the provisions of
Section 402 of the Code, including a direct transfer of an eligible rollover distribution pursuant to the provisions of Sections 401(a) and 403(a) of the Code, an annuity that meets the requirements of Section 403(b) of the Code, or from
an eligible plan under Section 457(b) of the Code. Such rollover or transfer must comply with the requirement of Section 402 of the Code.

(b) Governing Provisions. The assets so rolled over or transferred shall be solely in cash. The Committee shall develop such procedures, and may require such information from the Employee desiring to make such a rollover or transfer,
as it deems necessary to determine that the proposed rollover or transfer will meet the requirements of this Section and will not jeopardize the tax qualified status of the Plan. All amounts rolled over or transferred pursuant to this Section shall
be deposited in the Trust Fund and shall be credited to a rollover account. The rollover account shall be one hundred percent (100%) vested in the Participant, shall share in income allocations in accordance with Section 6.8 (but shall not
share in Company contributions) and shall be invested in accordance with the provisions of Article XIV. Distributions of amounts so transferred shall be subject to the same restrictions as those stated in Section 5.10.

8.2 Death. The death of any Participant or Former Participant shall be reported promptly to the Plan Administrator by
the Company. The death of a Terminated Participant or a Retired Participant shall be reported to the Plan Administrator by dependents or beneficiaries who are directly concerned. Upon the Participants death, the Participants Beneficiary
shall be entitled to payment of the balance of the Participants vested Account in the manner provided by the Plan.

8.3

8.4 Valuation of Account Balance. The Account balance

Participants pro rata share of the Company contribution under Section 3.1(c), as determined under Section 6.4(b), if any, for the year in which such Participant terminated employment).

8.5 Available Payment Options. Subject to the mandatory cash-out of small amounts provided in Section 8.10, a Retired, Deceased or

Section 8.6.



27



---

8.6 Spousal Consent Rules.

(a) Revocation of an Annuity. A married Participant who has selected a Term Annuity pursuant to Section 8.5(c) or a single life annuity or
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity (hereinafter QJSA), pursuant to Section 8.5(d), may revoke such election and elect instead to receive his or her benefits as follows:

(1) If the Participant elected a term certain annuity form of payment and the commercial annuity contract has not yet been purchased by the Plan, the
Participant (or the Surviving Spouse, if the Participant has died) may elect to receive any other form of benefit available for the Plan;

(2) If the Participant elected a life annuity or a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity form of payment and the commercial annuity contract has not yet been purchased by the Plan, the Participant (or his Surviving Spouse, if the Participant
has died) may elect to receive any other form of benefit available from the Plan, provided that the Participant and his Spouse (or the Surviving Spouse, if the Participant has died) consent in writing to the distribution revocation of such election
in accordance with Section 8.6(b ).

(b) Waiver of Life Annuity or Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. A Participant who is
married on the Annuity Starting Date may elect a single life annuity pursuant to Section 8.5(d) only if the Participants Spouse provides a waiver of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. A married Participant who has selected a QJSA,
pursuant to Section 8.5(d), may if permitted under Section 8.6(a) elect to revoke such election and waive the QJSA payment option. Such waivers must be made within the one hundred eighty (180) day period ending on the
Participants Annuity Starting Date with respect to such benefit. Subject to Section 8.6(a), a Participant may subsequently revoke the election to waive the QJSA and elect again to waive the QJSA at any time and any number of times prior
to such Annuity Starting Date. All such elections and revocations shall be in writing. Any election to waive the QJSA must:

(1) Specify
the alternate payment option elected;

(2) Be accompanied by the designation of a specific non-spouse Beneficiary (including any class of
beneficiaries or any contingent beneficiaries) who will receive the benefit upon the Participants death, if applicable; and

(3) Be
accompanied by Spousal Consent.

(A#4, effective January 1, 2008)If the Participant elects to waive the QJSA in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.6, then he may elect distribution in the form of a qualified optional survivor annuity at any time prior to the Annuity Starting Date. A qualified optional survivor
annuity is an annuity for the life of the Participant with an annuity for the Surviving Spouse equal to 75% of the amount payable during the joint lives of the Participant and the Spouse.

(A#4, effective January 1, 2007)Notwithstanding the above, no consent under this subsection (b) shall be valid unless, within
thirty (30) days and no more than one hundred eighty (180) days before the Annuity Starting Date, the Plan Administrator has provided the Participant



28



---

with the written explanation described in subsection (c) of this Section. A Participant may elect to receive distribution prior to the expiration of
such thirty (30) day period if distribution commences more than seven (7) days after the written explanation described in the previous sentence was provided.

A Participant who is not married on the Annuity Starting Date may, subject to Section 8.6(a), revoke an election to receive a single life annuity. The election must comply with this Section and
Section 8.6(c) as if it were an election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity by a married participant, but without the Spousal Consent requirement.

(c) Written Explanation. (A#4, effective February 1, 2006)The written explanation shall be designed to meet the requirements of Treas. Reg. Section 1.417(a)(3)-1, and shall contain the
following:

(1) The terms and conditions of the QJSA;

(2) The Participants right to make, and the effect of, an election to waive the QJSA payment option and, effective January 1, 2008, the qualified optional survivor annuity;

(3) The rights of the Participants Spouse;

(4) The right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of a previous election to waive the QJSA; and

(5) A general description
of the eligibility conditions and other material features of the Plans other forms of benefit and their financial effects.

(d)
Result of Effective Waiver. In the event of an effective waiver of the QJSA payment option, in accordance with the terms of subsection (b) of this Section, the amount payable to the married Retired or Disabled Participant (or to the
Beneficiary of a Deceased Participant) shall be distributed by the Trustees or their delegate under such of the alternate payment options set forth in Section 8.5 as the Participant or his legal representative may select.

(e) Spousal Consent. A Spousal Consent shall specify the non-spouse Beneficiary. Once made, a consent shall be irrevocable unless the Participant
changes his Beneficiary designation or revokes his election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; upon such event, the consent shall be deemed to be revoked. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Spousal Consent is not required if the
Participant establishes to the satisfaction of the Plan Administrator that such written consent cannot be obtained because there is no Spouse or that the Spouse cannot be located. In addition, no Spousal Consent is necessary if the Participant has
been legally separated or abandoned within the meaning of local law and the Participant provides the Plan Administrator with a court order to that effect, so long as such court order does not conflict with a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. If
the Spouse is legally incompetent to consent, the Spouses legal guardian may consent on his behalf, even if the legal guardian is a Participant.

8.7 Distributions Upon Married Participants Death. If a Participant is married on the date of his death, the full amount of the Participants Account balance shall be payable on the death of



29



---

the Participant to the Participants Surviving Spouse, unless the Participants Surviving Spouse has given Spousal Consent to the designation of a
specific non-spouse Beneficiary (including any class of beneficiaries or any contingent beneficiaries) who will receive the Account balance upon the Participants death.

8.8 General Distribution Requirements. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, all Plan distributions to Participants and
Beneficiaries shall comply with the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

(2) If the Participant dies before receiving any portion of his Account balance then distribution of the Participants entire Account balance shall
be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Participants death unless:

Beneficiary does not elect a method of distribution, distribution of the entire Account balance shall be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Participants death.

If the Surviving Spouse dies after the Participant but before payments to such Surviving Spouse begin, then the provisions of subsection (b)(2) of this
Section with the exception of subsection (b)(2)(ii) of this Section shall be applied as if the Spouse were the Participant.

Distribution
of a Participants Account balance shall be made or commence as provided in Appendix A to the Plan.

any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee in a direct rollover. Any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution that is not paid directly to an Eligible Retirement

other resources of the Participant as described in Treas. Reg. Section 1.401(k)-I(d)(2)(ii)(B). Such distributions shall be limited to the sum of (1) amounts in the Participants Section 401(k) Contribution Account attributable
to amounts transferred from the Prior Plan that had accrued on or before December 31, 1988 (along with earnings attributable thereto), plus (2) amounts in the Participants Section 401(k) Contribution Account accrued under the
Prior Plan and this Plan after December 31, 1988 (exclusive of any earnings), plus (3) amounts in the Participants Rollover Account.

(b) Restrictions. Participants receiving Hardship distribution under this Section 10.7 shall be subject to the following restrictions:

(1) The Participants limit under Section 402(g) of the Code on Section 401(k) Contributions for the Fiscal Year immediately following the
Fiscal Year in which a distribution is made to the Participant shall be reduced by the amount of Section 401(k) Contributions for the Fiscal Year in which such distribution was made; and

(2) The Participant shall be prohibited for six (6) months from the date of a distribution under this Section 10.7 from electing any
Section 401(k) Contributions under Article V or making contributions of Basic or Additional After-tax Savings under Article IV of this Plan. The Participant shall likewise be prohibited for the same six (6) month period from making
employee contributions under any deferred compensation plan of the Company, in accordance with written guidelines set forth by the Committee.

(c) Committee Guidelines and Determination. The Committee shall set forth written guidelines for the Administrator to make its determination under this Section 10.7 in accordance with the above standards (and the definition of
Hardship) in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner. The Committee shall make its determination under this Section 10.7 in accordance with the above standards (and the definition of Hardship) and in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner.

period of more than 179 days or for an indefinite period by reason of being a member of a reserve component (as defined in 37 U.S.C. Section 101). For purposes of this section, a qualified reservist distribution is a distribution of

ARTICLE XI.

LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS

11.1 General Provisions. The Committee shall direct the
Trustees to make a loan to Participants who are parties in interest (as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) (and to beneficiaries of such Participants as designated in written rules set forth by the Committee) as provided in this
Section 11.1. Such loan shall be in an amount that does not exceed the amount set forth in Section 11.2. Loans shall be made on written application to the Plan Administrator and on such terms and conditions as set forth in this Article XI,
and in accordance with the rules and procedures established by the Committee in a written resolution. All such rules and procedures shall be uniform and nondiscriminatory and shall relate to such matters as:



| | (a) | Procedures for applying for loans;
| | --- | ----------------------------------



| | (b) | The basis on which loans will be approved or denied;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Limitations on the types of loans offered;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------



| | (d) | The procedure for determining a reasonable rate of interest;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------

| | --- | ------------------------------------------------



| | (f) | The events constituting default;
| | --- | --------------------------------



| | (g) | Minimum loan amounts;
| | --- | ---------------------



| | (h) | Frequency of loans; and
| | --- | -----------------------



| | (i) | Any other appropriate matters consistent with this Article XI.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------

11.2 Maximum Loan Amount. A loan to a Participant (when added to the outstanding balance of all other loans made to the Participant under this Plan) shall not be in an amount that exceeds the Allocable Portion of the total
balance in the Participants After-tax Savings Account and Section 401(k) Contribution Account (valued as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of such loan). The Allocable Portion shall be adjusted
accordingly in the event the maximum permissible loan amount under Section 72(p) of the Code (or any successor provision) is decreased.

11.3 Minimum Loan Amount. The minimum loan amount for each loan shall be One Thousand Dollars ($1,000).

11.4
Repayment Period. The term of a loan made under this Article XI shall be fixed by the Committee, but in no event shall such term exceed (a) one hundred twenty (120) months in the case of a loan for the purchase of a principal
residence, or (b) sixty (60) months in the case of a loan for any other purpose.

11.5 Terms and Conditions. Loans
made to Participants shall be made in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

(a) The loans shall be secured by the
Participants interest in the Plan, plus by the Participants promissory note for the amount of the loan (including interest) payable to the order of the Trustees. The Plan Administrator may also require such other collateral which in a
normal commercial setting would be considered adequate for the full protection of the Trust Fund.



38



---

(b) The interest rate for the loan shall be the Federal prime rate as of the last day of the quarter
immediately preceding or ending on the date the loan is made.

(c) Payment of principal and interest shall be made through appropriate
payroll deductions from the Compensation otherwise payable to the Participant while the Participant is an Employee. Such payroll deductions shall continue until the full outstanding balance of any loans is repaid, regardless of whether the borrower
remains a Participant in the Plan. Payment of principal by an individual who is no longer an Employee shall be made through such other means (not less frequently than quarterly) as the Committee deems appropriate.

(d) The loan shall be made to the Participant from his Account and shall be treated as an investment of assets of such Account. All interest and all
losses attributable to loans shall be charged to the borrowing Participants Account, and all loan payments shall be credited to the Participants Account.

(e) The loan shall not be used as a means of distributing benefits before they otherwise become due.

(f)
Any loan made under the Plan shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine are necessary or appropriate, including the condition that the Participant pay (through payroll withholding) the reasonable expenses
determined by the Committee incurred by the Plan to make and service the loan.

(g) Loan repayments will be suspended during a period of
Qualified Military Service as defined in Section 414(u) of the Code.

(h) A married Participant who has elected payment in the form of
a life annuity or a QJSA, pursuant to Section 8.5(d), must obtain Spousal Consent to obtain a loan.

11.6
Nondiscrimination. In making loans under this Article XI, the Committee shall not discriminate in favor of or against any Participant or group of Participant. Accordingly, loans shall be available to all Participants on a reasonably
equivalent basis and shall not be made to Highly-Compensated Employees of the Company in an amount greater than the amount made available to other Participants.

11.7 Offset of Account Balance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in the Plan, in determining the amount of any distribution made in accordance with Article VIII or Article IX,
the amount of any security interest held by the Plan by reason of any loan made against the Participants Account under this Article XI, including accrued interest, shall be collected by the Plan Administrator from any amounts standing to the
credit of the Participant in the Plan in satisfaction of the loan before making any payments to the Participant or to the Participants Beneficiary.

11.8 Default. In the event a Participant defaults on the repayment of a loan (under uniform and nondiscriminatory written standards adopted by the Committee as to what constitutes default), the Trustees
may treat the loan as a distribution and pay the principal and interest owing under the loan from the Participants After-tax Savings Account in the following order of priority:



| | (a) | Current year After-tax Savings;
| | --- | -------------------------------



39



---

| | (b) | Prior years After-tax Savings;
| | --- | -------------------------------



| | (c) | Earnings on prior years After-tax Savings; and
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Earnings on current year After-tax Savings.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------

In the event
the Participants After-tax Savings Account is insufficient to repay the full amount of principal and interest owing, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may treat the unpaid balance as a distribution from the vested portion of the
Participants Company Contribution Account.

In the event the
Participants After-tax Savings Account and the vested portion of the Participants Company Contribution Account are insufficient to repay the full amount of principal and interest owing, a determination shall be made whether the
Participant qualifies for a Hardship withdrawal under the provisions of Section 10.7, and, if so, a distribution shall be made in accordance therewith. If the Participant fails to qualify for a Hardship distribution, the Plan Administrator
shall take such other collection action as it deems fit, in accordance with written standards adopted by the Committee; provided, however, that the Plan Administrator shall defer making any distribution from the Participants
Section 401(k) Contribution Account to repay any unpaid loan balance until such time as the Participant has incurred a Separation Date or has attained age 59 1/2, or until an event described in Section 401(k)(10) of the Code has occurred or as defined in Section 1.24.

ARTICLE XII.

BENEFICIARIES

12.1 Designation of Beneficiary. Each Participant or Alternate Payee
may designate, on the forms provided by the Plan Administrator, one or more Beneficiaries and contingent Beneficiaries to receive the Plan benefits in the event of the Participants or Alternate Payees death. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, if the Participant is married at the time of his death and has not elected a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, his Account balance shall be payable in full to his Surviving Spouse, unless he has designated a different beneficiary with
the consent of his Spouse, if any, in accordance with Sections 1.66 and 8.6(c).

12.2 Manner of Designation. Such designation
may be delivered, on forms provided by the Plan Administrator, at the time such Participant commences participation in the Plan, or thereafter. A beneficiary designation completed by an Alternate Payee may be delivered at the time the Administrator
notifies the Alternate Payee that he is entitled to Plan benefits under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or thereafter. A Participant or Alternate Payee may designate different Beneficiaries at any time by delivering a new written designation
to the Plan Administrator. Any such designation shall become effective only upon its receipt by the Plan Administrator. The last effective designation received by the Plan Administrator shall supersede all prior designations. A designation of a
Beneficiary shall be effective only if the designated Beneficiary survives the Participant or Alternate Payee. All designations must be signed by either the Participant or Alternate Payee, as appropriate.

12.3 Absence of Valid Designation of Beneficiary. Except as provided in section 8.7, if a Participant or Alternate Payee fails to designate
a Beneficiary, if no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant or Alternate Payee, or if such designation is for any reason illegal or ineffective, distribution of benefits otherwise payable under this Plan shall be made to the
Participants or Alternate Payees estate.

12.4 Beneficiary Bound by Plan Provisions. Whenever the rights of a
Participant or Alternate Payee are stated or limited in the Plan, the Participants or Alternate Payees Beneficiaries shall be bound thereby.

ARTICLE XIII.

QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS

13.1 Governing Provisions. Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Plan, a Participants Account may be assigned in whole or in part pursuant to the provisions of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (hereinafter QDRO). In such case, the following rules shall apply:

(a) A separate account shall be established for any Alternate Payee who has been awarded Plan assets, unless a QDRO obligates the Plan to
distribute, as soon as administratively practicable, all or part of a Participants Account to the Alternate Payee. In such cases, a pro rata portion of the amount payable to the Alternate Payee shall be withdrawn from each Fund in which the
Participant, pursuant to Section 14.1, has invested. This pro rata withdrawal from each Fund shall be calculated according to the percentage of the Participants total Account, which the Participant has placed in each Fund. Thus, for
example, if a Participant with an Account of $200,000 has invested fifty percent (50%) in the Balanced Fund and fifty percent (50%) in the Bond Fund, and a QDRO awards $100,000 to an Alternate Payee, fifty percent (50%) of the
Alternate Payees award shall be deducted from the Bond Fund and fifty percent (50%) from the Balanced Fund.

(b) All such
payments pursuant to a QDRO shall be subject to reasonable rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee respecting the time of payment pursuant to such order and the valuation of the Participants Account from which payment is made,
provided that all such payments are made in accordance with such order and Section 414(p) of the Code.

(c) The balance of a
Participants Account subject to any QDRO shall be reduced by the amount of any payment made pursuant to such order.

An Alternate Payee for whom a
separate Account is established pursuant to this Article XIII shall be entitled to file an election with regard to investment of that Account in the manner specified by Article XIV and subject to the terms of the QDRO. All such elections shall be
subject to the same terms and conditions as Article XIV imposes upon Participant elections, and all such elections shall be carried out by the Administrator in accordance with Article XIV.

Upon the death of an Alternate Payee, the Alternate Payees Beneficiaries shall be entitled to payment of benefits in an amount and in the manner provided by the
Plan.

After-tax Savings and Section 401(k) Contributions, be invested, in specified multiples of one percent (1%), in any of the Funds maintained under the Plan, provided the Participant elects to do so. The Plan Administrator shall carry out the

in which his (1) Account balance, (2) share of future allocations of Company contributions, (3) share of future forfeitures, and (4) future After-tax Savings and Section 401(k) Contributions, are to be invested. Upon the
receipt by the Plan Administrator of a Participants request for a change in writing or in some other form authorized by the Plan Administrator, the election shall be effective as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section.

(e) Default Election. In the event that a Participant does not make an initial election to direct investments, his (1) Account balance,

each have a balance as of the Transfer Date giving effect to the percentages indicated by the Participants election. If a Participant has not made an election as to any Fund, such Participants Account shall be placed into the Fund(s)

Property; (2) shall be designed to enable Participants, by choosing among them, to minimize the risk of large losses in their Accounts; (3) shall be designed to enable Participants, by combining them, to achieve general risk and return
characteristics in their Accounts as desired by Participants; (4) shall be designed to limit a Participants investment in Company stock or Qualifying Employer Securities to no more than twenty percent (20%) of the Participants

(2) Each Participant shall be entitled to direct the exercise of rights other than voting rights (such as, for example, a conversion privilege) with
respect to all shares held in the Participants Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. Stock Fund Subaccount in the same manner as prescribed in this Section 14.7, to the extent required by the provisions of the Plan and applicable laws.

(3) Notwithstanding the above, in the event of a tender offer for Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. common stock with time limits that
do not permit voting rights with respect to the offer to be passed through to Participants, the Committee shall instruct the Trustee regarding the exercise of rights with respect to the tender offer.

PLAN ADMINISTRATION

16.1 Administration of the Plan.

(a) Authority to Administer. On behalf of the Named Fiduciary, the Committee shall administer the Plan in accordance with its terms and shall have
all powers and discretionary authority necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan, including but not limited to, the power to: (1) interpret and construe the provisions of the Plan, including making factual determinations;
(2) prepare any rules and regulations which may become necessary or desirable in the operation of the Plan, including but not limited to specifying procedures to be followed by eligible Employees in electing to participate in the Plan and in
revoking such participation; (3) determine eligibility for benefits and determine the amounts and manner of payment thereof under the provisions of the Plan; (4) keep individual accounts; (5) establish investment policies to be
followed by the Trustees; and (6) perform such other duties as may be required for the proper administration of the Plan. The Committee shall have absolute discretion in interpreting the provisions of the Plan and administering the Plan in
accordance with such provisions, including by way of illustration and not of limitation, the making of determinations of eligibility to participate and the calculation of benefits accruing or payable under this Plan.

(b) Delegation of Authority to Plan Administrator. In accordance with Section 15.3(b), the duties described in subsection (a) of this
Section shall be exercised by the Plan Administrator acting on behalf of the Committee, subject to review by the Committee under Section 16.2(c) of a denial of a claim for benefits.

(c) Finality of Decision. Any decision of the Named Fiduciary or of the Committee on its behalf, in matters within its jurisdiction shall be
final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and upon all persons who have participated or have any interest or concern, whatsoever, in the Plan.

16.2 Claims.

(a) Claims for Benefits. Any claim for benefits under the Plan shall be made in writing to the
Plan Administrator. Except as to his own account, no claimant shall have any legal right to inquire as to any payment under the Plan having been made or as to determining the amount of such payment. Benefits will be paid under the Plan only if the
Plan Administrator, or its delegate, determines in its discretion that the claimant is entitled to them.

The Plan Administrators
final decision shall be conclusive, final and binding on all parties. No action may be brought at law or in equity for benefits under the Plan until the claims procedures described in this Section 16.2 and Appendix B have been exhausted and the
Plan benefits requested in that appeal have been denied in whole or in part. If a claim for benefits under the Plan is finally denied by the Plan Administrator, a claimant may then bring suit in Federal court, but must do so within 90 days of the
date of the Plan Administrators decision.

(b) Notice of Claim Denied. If a claim for benefits is denied, in whole or in part,
the claims procedure set forth in Appendix B shall apply.

ARTICLE XVII.

PARTICIPATING COMPANY WITHDRAWAL FROM PLAN;

TERMINATION OR MERGER OF THE PLAN

17.1 Voluntary Withdrawal from Plan.

(a) Withdrawal By Participating Company. Any Participating Company may at any time withdraw from the Plan upon giving the Named Fiduciary at least thirty (30) days notice in writing of its intention to withdraw, unless the Named
Fiduciary shall waive such thirty (30) days notice. The withdrawal of such Participating Company shall be effective on the last day of the Month in which the foregoing thirty (30) day period ends.

(b) Segregation of Trust Assets Upon Withdrawal. Upon the withdrawal of a Participating Company pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section,
the Plan Administrator shall segregate the share of the assets in the Trust Fund, the value of which, determined on the day the withdrawal of such Participating Company shall be effective, shall equal the total credited to the accounts of
Participants of the withdrawing Participating Company. The determination of which assets are to be so segregated shall be made by the Committee acting on behalf of the Named Fiduciary in its sole discretion.

(c) Exclusive Benefit of Participants. Neither the segregation and transfer of the Trust assets upon the withdrawal of a Participating Company nor
the execution of a new agreement and declaration of trust by such withdrawing Participating Company shall operate to permit any part of the Trust Fund to be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of the Participants.

(d) Applicability of Withdrawal Provisions. The withdrawal provisions contained in this Section 17.1 shall be applicable only
if the withdrawing Participating Company continues to cover its Participants and eligible employees in another profit-sharing plan or pension plan and trust qualified under Sections 401 and 501 of the Code. Otherwise, the termination provisions of
Section 17.3 shall apply.

17.2 Amendment of Plan. The Board of Directors may amend the Plan with respect to all
Participating Companies or with respect to a particular Participating Company at any time, and from time to time, pursuant to written resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors (and all Employees and persons claiming any interest hereunder shall
be bound thereby); provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(a) Alter the rights, duties or responsibilities of the Named Fiduciary
or Trustees without their written consent;

(b) Permit any portion of the Trust Fund to inure to the benefit of the Company or permit any
portion of the Trust Fund to be held or used other than for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to Participants and their Beneficiaries and defraying reasonable costs of administering the Plan; or



52



---

(c) Have the effect of decreasing the accrued benefit of any Participant as proscribed in
Section 411(d)(6) of the Code;

(d) Have the effect of reducing any then vested percentage of benefits of any Participant as computed
in accordance with the vesting schedule under Article VII of the Plan.

If the vesting schedule under Article VII of the Plan shall be
amended and such an amendment would, at any time, decrease the percentage of vested benefits which any Participant would have been entitled to receive had the vesting schedule not been so amended, then each Participant who is an Employee on the date
such amendment is adopted, or the date such amendment is effective, whichever is later, and who has three (3) or more Periods of Service as of the end of the period within which such Participant may make the election provided for herein, shall
be permitted, beginning on the date such amendment is adopted, to irrevocably elect to have the Participants vested interest computed without regard to such amendment. Written notice of such amendment and the availability of such election must
be given to each such Participant, and each such Participant shall be granted a period of sixty (60) days after the later of:

(1) The
Participants receipt of such notice; or

(2) The effective date of such amendment within which to make such election.

Such election shall be exercised by the Participant by delivering or sending written notice thereof to the Named Fiduciary prior to the expiration of
such sixty (60) day period.

17.3 Voluntary Termination of Plan.

(a) Right to Terminate Plan. Each Participating Company contemplates that the Plan shall be permanent and that it shall be able to make
contributions to the Plan. Nevertheless, in recognition of the fact that future conditions and circumstances cannot now be entirely foreseen, each Participating Company reserves the right to terminate (as to such Participating Company) either the
Plan (exclusive of the Trust Fund) or both the Plan and the Trust Fund, at any time, by resolution of the board of directors of the Participating Company.

(b) Merger or Consolidation of Plan and Trust. Neither the Plan nor the Trust Fund may be merged or consolidated with, nor may its assets or liabilities be transferred to, any other plan or trust, unless each
Participant would (if the Plan then terminated) receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit the Participant would have been entitled to receive immediately before the
merger, consolidation, or transfer (if the Plan had then terminated).

(c) Termination of Plan and Trust Fund. If the board of
directors of a Participating Company determines to terminate (as to such Participating Company) the Plan and Trust Fund completely, the Plan and Trust Fund shall be terminated insofar as they are applicable to such Participating Company as of the
date specified in certified copies of resolutions of such board of directors delivered to the Named Fiduciary, the Committee and the Trustees. Upon such termination of the Plan and Trust Fund, after payment of all expenses and proportional
adjustment



53



---

of accounts of Participants employed by such Participating Company to reflect such expenses, Trust Fund earnings or losses, and allocations of any previously
unallocated funds to the date of termination, such Participating Companys Participants shall be entitled to receive the amount then credited to their respective accounts in the Trust Fund. The Named Fiduciary, in its sole discretion, may make
payment of such amount in cash, in assets of the Trust Fund, or in the form of immediate or deferred payment term annuity contracts for such Participants.

17.4 Discontinuance of Contributions. Whenever a Participating Company determines that it is impossible or inadvisable for it to make further contributions as provided in the Plan, the board of directors
of such Participating Company may, without terminating the Trust Fund, adopt an appropriate resolution permanently discontinuing all further contributions by such Participating Company. A certified copy of such resolution shall be delivered to the
Named Fiduciary, the Committee and the Trustees. Thereafter, the Named Fiduciary, the Committee and the Trustees shall continue to administer all the provisions of the Plan, which are necessary and remain in force, other than the provisions relating
to contributions by such Participating Company. However, the Trust Fund shall remain in existence with respect to such Participating Company and all of the provisions of the Plan relating to the Trust Fund shall remain in force.

17.5 Rights to Benefits Upon Termination of Plan or Complete Discontinuance of Contributions. Upon the termination or partial termination
of the Plan or the complete discontinuance of contributions by a Participating Company, the rights of each of such Participating Companys Participants affected by such termination or partial termination to the amount credited to such
Participants Account at such time shall be nonforfeitable without reference to any formal action on the part of such Participating Company, the Named Fiduciary, the Committee or the Trustees.

ARTICLE XX.

TOP HEAVY PROVISIONS

20.1 Determination of Top Heavy Status. For purposes of this
Article, the Plan shall be a Top Heavy Plan if, as of the Determination Date, either:

(a) The sum of the aggregated accounts of
Participants who are key employees (as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code) exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the sum of the aggregated accounts of all Plan Participants; or

(b) The Plan is included in a Top Heavy Group.

If a
Participant has received no compensation from the Company during the five (5) year period preceding the Determination Date, his account balance may be disregarded for purposes of determining whether the Plan is top-heavy. Solely for purposes of
determining which Participants are key employees, the term compensation (as used in Section 416(1) of the Code) shall mean the compensation stated on an Employees Form W-2 for the calendar year that ends with or
within the Plan Year.

20.2 Definitions. For purposes of this Article, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth
herein:

(a) Aggregation Group means:

(1) Each Section 401 Plan of the Company in which a key employee (as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code) is a participant; and

(2) Each Section 401 Plan of the Company which enables any plan described in subsection (a)(i) of this Section to meet the requirements of
Section 401(a)(4) or 410 of the Code.

(3) To the extent elected by the Committee, any other Section 401 Plan of the Company
that when aggregated with any plans described in Subsections (a)(1) and (2) of this Section meets the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code.

(b) Determination Date means, with respect to any Plan Year, the last day of the preceding Plan Year. In the case of the Plan Year which includes the Effective Date of the Plan, the last day of such
Plan Year.

(c) Section 401 Plan means any stock bonus, pension, or profit sharing plan subject to the qualification
requirements of Section 401 of the Code.

(d) Top Heavy Group means any Aggregation Group determined to be a Top
Heavy Group in accordance with the test set forth in Code Section 416(g)(2)(B).

(e) Valuation Date shall have the
same meaning as set forth in Section 1.72.

20.3 Requirements if Plan is a Top Heavy Plan. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Plan, for any Plan Year for which the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan, a minimum allocation shall be



59



---

made on behalf of each Participant who is not a key employee (as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code) and who is employed on the last day
of such Plan Year in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) three percent (3%) of such Participants Compensation or (b) the largest percentage of Compensation allocated to any key employee during such Plan Year. 401(k) elective
deferrals made by a non-key employee under this Plan or any other plan of the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to a cash or deferred arrangement shall not be credited toward the minimum allocation described in the preceding sentence. The minimum
allocation shall not apply to any non-key employee who receives a minimum contribution or a minimum benefit under any other plan of the Company or a Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the above, if a non-key employee participates in this Plan and a defined
benefit plan that is included in an Aggregation Group, the non- key employee shall receive a minimum benefit under the defined benefit plan rather than a minimum allocation under this Plan, provided that if the defined benefit plan does not provide
for a minimum benefit, the non-key employee shall receive a minimum allocation under this Plan of five percent (5%) of Compensation.

20.4 Applicability of Top-Heavy Rules. The top-heavy requirements of Section 416 of the Code and Article 20 of the Plan shall not apply in any year beginning after December 31, 2001, in which the plan consists solely
of a cash or deferred arrangement which meets the requirements of Section 401(k)(12) of the Code and matching contributions with respect to which the requirements of the Section 401(m)(11) of the Code are met.

A-2.1. 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.

A-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 the later of 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 701/2.

(b) If the Participants surviving spouse is not the Participants sole designated beneficiary, then, 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 section A-2.2, other than section A-2.2(a), will apply as if the surviving spouse were
the Participant.

---

For purposes of this section A-2.2 and section A-4, unless section A-2.2(d) applies, distributions are considered to
begin on the Participants Required Beginning Date. If section A-2.2(d) applies, distributions are considered to begin on the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse under section A-2.2(a). If distributions under an
annuity purchased from an insurance company irrevocably 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 A-2.2(a)), the date distributions are considered to begin is the date distributions actually commence.

A-2.3. Forms of
Distribution. Unless the Participants interest is distributed 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 A-3 and A-4 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 Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the
Treasury regulations.

Section A-3. Required Minimum Distributions During Participants Lifetime.

A-3.1. 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 Treas. Reg. Sec. 1.401(a)(9)-9, 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 Treas. Reg. Sec.1.401(a)(9)-9, using the Participants and spouses attained ages as of the Participants and
spouses birthdays in the distribution calendar year.

A-3.2. Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions Continue Through Year of Participants
Death. Required minimum distributions will be determined under this section A-3 beginning with the first distribution calendar year and up to and including the distribution calendar year that includes the Participants date of death

Section A-4. Required Minimum Distributions After Participants Death.

A-4.1. 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:

(1) 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.



A-2



---

(2) 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.

(3) 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.

A-4.2. Death Before Date Distributions Begin

(a) Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. 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 section A-4.1.

(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 section A-2.2(a), this section A-4.2 will apply as if the surviving spouse were the Participant.
