Section 3.03. Company Deferrals. 

(a) Company Deferrals Prior August 1, 2013. Effective prior to August 1, 2013, the Company shall cause
to be credited to a Participant’s Account for each Plan Year an amount equal to the Participant’s contributions made pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.02 of the Plan in respect of such Plan Year; provided, however, that such Company
Deferrals shall not exceed 6% of the Participant’s Compensation. Company matching contributions shall first be made to the Savings Plan up to the maximum permissible amount allowed by the Savings Plan prior to Company Deferrals being made to
this Plan. In no event shall the total Company Deferrals under this Plan plus the Company matching contributions under the Savings Plan in the same Plan Year exceed $12,000, in the aggregate, in respect of any such Participant. All such amounts
shall be credited to the Participant’s Account as soon as practicable and after the Company is able to determine the amount of such Company Deferrals to be made for the Participant to this Plan. The Company Deferral shall be deemed to be made
in shares of Company Stock or cash in the Company’s sole discretion in accordance with and to the extent consistent with procedures approved by the Administration Committee or its delegate.

the occurrence of an event described in paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall override such election. A Participant’s election options concerning the timing of his distributions shall include: 

(i) The earlier of a specific date which occurs no earlier than December 31 of the second Plan Year following the Plan
Year in which the deferrals designated for distribution were earned or the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service, or

(iii) A specific date which occurs no earlier than December 31 of the second Plan Year following the Plan Year in which
the deferrals designated for distribution were earned. 
 A Participant may elect a separate form of distribution pursuant to
Sections 5.03 and 5.05 with respect to each election under this Section and, if a distribution pursuant to subsection (b)(i) of this Section is elected, a Participant may make a separate election under Section 5.03 or 5.05 with respect to each
of the different potential distribution dates under subsection (b)(i) of this Section. 
 5. The Administration Committee or its delegate is
hereby authorized to take any action necessary or advisable to implement this amendment.
