 MIRION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 

EFFECTIVE DATE 

JUNE 30, 2015 
  











 ARTICLE I 

Establishment and Purpose 
 Mirion
Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), establishes the Mirion Technologies, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) effective June 30, 2015 (the “Effective Date”). 

The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain key employees and non-employee Directors by providing Participants
with an opportunity to defer receipt of a portion of their Salary, Bonus, Commissions, Directors’ Fees, Long-Term Incentive Plan Compensation and other specified compensation. The Plan is not intended to meet the qualification requirements of
Code Section 401(a), but is intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A, and shall be operated and interpreted consistent with that intent. 

The Plan constitutes an unsecured promise by each Participating Employer to pay benefits in the future. Participants in the Plan shall have the status of
general unsecured creditors of the Company or the Adopting Employers, as applicable. Each Participating Employer shall be solely responsible for payment of the benefits of its Participants and their beneficiaries. The Plan is unfunded for federal
tax purposes, and is intended to be an unfunded arrangement for non-Employee Directors and eligible employees who are part of a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Employer within the meaning of Sections 201(2),
301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. Accordingly, the Plan is intended to qualify for the exemptions provided in Sections 201, 301, and 401 of ERISA. Any amounts set aside to defray the liabilities assumed by the Company or an Adopting Employer will
remain the general assets of the Company or the Adopting Employers, and shall remain subject to the claims of the Company’s or the Adopting Employers’ creditors, until such amounts are distributed to the Participants.

under the Plan.

the stock of such corporation, or to have effective control of such corporation within the meaning of part (b) of this Section, and such person or group acquires additional stock of such corporation, the acquisition of additional stock by such

determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii). A transfer of assets shall not be treated as a “change in the 



  
 3

with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii)(B).

Treas. Reg. §1.409A-l(h)(l)(ii). For purposes of determining whether a Separation from Service has occurred, the definition of “Affiliate” shall be modified by substituting 50% for 80% in

statute or contract). If the Employee’s period of leave exceeds six months and the Employee’s right to reemployment is not provided either by statute or by contract, the employment relationship is deemed to terminate on the first day
immediately following the expiration of such six-month period. Whether a termination of employment has occurred will be determined based on all of the facts and circumstances and in accordance with regulations
issued by the United States Treasury Department pursuant to Code Section 409A. 
  

	 	(b)	 For a Participant who provides services to an Employer as a
non-employee Director, except as otherwise provided in part (c) of this Section, a Separation from Service shall occur upon the expiration of the contract (or, in the case of more than one contract, all
contracts) under which services are performed for such Employer, provided that the expiration of such 



  
 8 













	 	
contract(s) is determined by the Committee to constitute a good-faith and complete termination of the contractual relationship between the Participant and such Employer. 


 

	 	(c)	 If a Participant provides services for an Employer as both an Employee and a Director, to the extent permitted
by Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h)(5) the services provided by such Participant as a Director shall not be taken into account in determining whether the Participant has experienced a Separation from Service as
an Employee, and the services provided by such Participant as an Employee shall not be taken into account in determining whether the Participant has experienced a Separation from Service as a Director. 



The determination of whether a Service Provider has had a Separation from Service shall be made in compliance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-l(h). 
  

	 	2.44	 Separation from Service Account. Separation from Service Account means one or more Accounts established
by the Committee to record the amounts payable to a Participant upon Separation from Service. Unless the Participant has established a Specified Date Account, or unless a Participating Employer has credited an Employer Contribution to a Specified

Committee without affecting the meaning thereof.

Eligibility and Participation 
  

	 	3.1	 Eligibility and Participation. The Committee shall designate the eligibility requirements for
participation in the Plan in its sole and absolute discretion, in accordance with applicable law and the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Committee’s eligibility determination shall be in writing and as determined in the discretion of the
Committee, may be changed from time to time. An Eligible Director or Eligible Employee, as the case may be, shall become eligible to accrue deferred compensation under the Plan or receive a Discretionary Contribution on the date such person becomes
a Participant. 


  

	 	3.2	 Duration. A Participant shall continue to be eligible to make Deferrals of Compensation and receive
allocations of Discretionary Contributions, if any, subject to the terms of the Plan, for as long as such Participant remains an Eligible Director or Eligible Employee or until the Committee in its discretion decides the Participant no longer is
entitled to participate in the Plan. A Participant who ceases to be an Eligible Director or Eligible Employee or who no longer is entitled to participate in the Plan but who has not Separated from Service or otherwise qualified for and received (or
has had a Beneficiary receive) a complete distribution of his or her Account Balance from the Plan, shall not make further Deferrals of Compensation effective as of the first day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Participant

a Participant shall remain a Participant as long as his or her Account Balance is greater than zero, and during such time may continue to make investment allocation elections as provided in
Section 8.4. An individual shall cease being a Participant in the Plan when all benefits under the Plan to which he or she is entitled have been paid. 

  

	 	3.3	 Reemployment. If a former Eligible Director or Eligible Employee is rehired by an Employer and is again
selected as eligible to participate in the Plan, he or she shall reenter the Plan on the first day of any Plan Year commencing after the date he or she is selected in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1. If such individual meets the
requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(a)(7) as of such reentry date, he or she will be treated as initially eligible to participate in the Plan for purposes of Section 4.2(a). Such Eligible
Director’s or Eligible Employee’s reentry into the Plan shall have no impact on any distributions that have been made or are being made in accordance with Article VI. Any amounts previously forfeited from the Participant’s Accounts
pursuant to this Plan shall not be restored or reinstated upon the Participant’s subsequent reentry into the Plan. 


  

	 	3.4	 Adoption by Affiliates. An employee of an Affiliate may not become a Participant in the Plan unless the
Affiliate has become an Adopting Employer. An Affiliate may become an Adopting Employer only by adopting the Plan with the approval of the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee (or their respective authorized delegates). By adopting this
Plan, the Adopting Employer shall be deemed to have agreed to assume the obligations and liabilities imposed upon it by this Plan, agreed to comply with all of the other terms and provisions of this Plan, delegated to the Committee the power and
responsibility to administer this Plan with respect to the Adopting Employer’s Employees, and delegated to the Company (by action of the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee, or their respective authorized delegates) the full power
to amend or terminate this Plan with respect to the Adopting Employer’s Employees. 


 ARTICLE IV 

Deferrals 
  

	 	4.1	 Deferral Elections, Generally. 



 

	 	(a)	 A Participant may elect to make Deferrals of Compensation by submitting a Compensation Deferral Agreement
during the enrollment periods established by the Committee and in the manner specified by the Committee, but in any event, in accordance with Section 4.2 and Code Section 409A. A Compensation Deferral Agreement that is not timely filed
with respect to a service period or component of Compensation shall be considered void, and shall have no effect with respect to such service period or Compensation. The Committee may accept or reject any Compensation Deferral Agreement and may
modify it as necessary to comply with Section 2.20 prior to the date the election becomes irrevocable under the rules of Section 4.2. 



  
 11 













	 	(b)	 The Participant shall specify on his or her Compensation Deferral Agreement the amount of the Deferral for the
Plan Year, and whether to allocate the Deferral: (i) to the Separation from Service Account, (ii) to or among one or more Specified Date Accounts, or (iii) among the Separation from Service Account and one or more Specified Date
Accounts. If no allocation is indicated, or if an invalid allocation is made (such as a Deferral allocated to a Specified Date Account with a distribution date occurring in the same calendar year as the Plan Year to which the Deferral election
refers), the Deferral shall be allocated to the Separation from Service Account. A Participant may also specify in his or her Compensation Deferral Agreement the Payment Schedule applicable to his or her benefits, including his or her Separation
from Service Benefit and Specified Date Benefit(s), subject to the terms of the Plan. If the Payment Schedule for a Separation from Service Benefit is not specified in a Compensation Deferral Agreement, the Payment Schedule shall be in a single lump
sum and the distribution will be made as soon as is administratively practical on or after the first Business Day that follows the first January 30th following the Participant’s Separation from Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject
to Section 6.1(a), if a Participant is a Specified Employee on the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service, a distribution based on a Separation of Service will be made or begin no earlier than the first day of the seventh
calendar month following the calendar month in which the Separation from Service occurs and then otherwise in accordance with the applicable Payment Schedule, with any such payments that are otherwise due within such
six-month period aggregated and payable in a lump sum no earlier than the first day of the seventh calendar month following the calendar month in which the Separation from Service occurs.



  

	 	4.2	 Timing Requirements for Compensation Deferral Agreements. 



 

	 	(a)	 First Year of Eligibility. In the case of the first year in which an Eligible Director or an Eligible
Employee becomes eligible to participate in the Plan, he or she shall have up to 30 days following the date on which he or she becomes eligible to participate in the Plan, to submit a Compensation Deferral Agreement with respect to Compensation to
be earned during or after such Plan Year following the date such agreement becomes irrevocable. A completed Compensation Deferral Agreement described in this paragraph shall become irrevocable upon the end of such
30-day period, or upon a shorter period as determined by the Committee. The determination of whether an Eligible Director or Eligible Employee may file a Compensation Deferral Agreement under this paragraph
shall be determined in accordance with the rules of Code Section 409A, including the provisions of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(a)(7). 



  
 12 












 A Compensation Deferral Agreement filed under this paragraph applies to Compensation earned
for services performed after the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement becomes irrevocable. Any Compensation Deferral Agreement under this subsection (a) shall satisfy the requirements of Treas. Reg.
§1.409A-2(a)(7). 
  

	 	(b)	 Prior Year Election. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.2, Participants may defer
Compensation by filing a Compensation Deferral Agreement no later than December 31st of the calendar year prior to the calendar year in which the Compensation to be deferred is earned. A
Compensation Deferral Agreement described in this paragraph shall become irrevocable with respect to such Compensation no later than December 31st of the calendar year prior to the calendar year
in which such Compensation is earned. 


  

	 	(c)	 Performance-Based Compensation. Participants may file a Compensation Deferral Agreement with respect to
Performance-Based Compensation no later than the date that is six months before the end of the performance period, provided that: 


  

	 	(a)	 the Participant performs services continuously from the later of the beginning of the performance period or the
date the criteria are established through the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement is submitted; and 


  

	 	(b)	 the amount of the Compensation is not readily ascertainable as of the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement
is filed. 


 A Compensation Deferral Agreement becomes irrevocable with respect to Performance-Based Compensation as of
the date on which the deadline for filing such election occurs. The Committee shall determine the deadline for filing such an election in compliance with Code Section 409A. Any Compensation Deferral Agreement under this subsection
(c) shall satisfy the requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(a)(8). 
  

	 	(d)	 Short-Term Deferrals. Compensation that meets the definition of a “short-term deferral”
described in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4) may be deferred in accordance with the rules of Article VII, applied as if the date the Substantial Risk of Forfeiture lapses is the date on which payments were
originally scheduled to commence. Any Compensation Deferral Agreement under this subsection (d) shall satisfy the requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(a)(4). 



 

	 	(e)	 Certain Forfeitable Rights. With respect to a legally binding right to a payment in a subsequent year
that is subject to a forfeiture condition requiring the Participant’s continued services for a period of at least 12 months from the date the Participant obtains the legally binding right, an




  
 13 













	 	
election to defer such Compensation may be made on or before the 30th day after the Participant obtains the legally binding right to the
Compensation, provided that the election is made at least 12 months in advance of the earliest date at which the forfeiture condition could lapse. The Compensation Deferral Agreement described in this paragraph becomes irrevocable on such 30th day. If the forfeiture condition applicable to the payment lapses before the end of the required 12-month service period as a result of the Participant’s
death or disability (as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(4)) or upon a Change in Control (as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(5)),
the Compensation Deferral Agreement will be void unless it would be considered timely under another rule described in this Section. Any Compensation Deferral Agreement under this subsection (e) shall satisfy the requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(a)(5). 

  

	 	(f)	 “Evergreen” Deferral Elections. Deferral elections under the Plan are effective for a single
Plan Year; new elections must be made in order to defer Compensation during the following Plan Year. However, the Committee, in its discretion, may change this protocol by providing in the Compensation Deferral Agreement that such Compensation
Deferral Agreement will continue in effect for each subsequent Plan Year or performance period, as applicable. In such event, such “evergreen” Compensation Deferral Agreements will become effective with respect to an item of Compensation
on the date such election becomes irrevocable under this Section 4.2. An evergreen Compensation Deferral Agreement may be terminated or modified prospectively with respect to Compensation for which such election remains revocable under this
Section 4.2. A Participant whose Compensation Deferral Agreement is cancelled in accordance with Section 4.6 will be required to file a new Compensation Deferral Agreement under this Article IV in order to recommence Deferrals under the
Plan. 


  

	 	4.3	 Allocation of Deferrals. A Compensation Deferral Agreement may allocate Deferrals to one or more
Specified Date Accounts and/or to the Separation from Service Account. The Committee may, in its discretion, establish a minimum deferral period for the establishment of a Specified Date Account. 



 

	 	4.4	 Deductions from Compensation. The Committee has the authority to determine the payroll practices under
which any component of Compensation subject to a Compensation Deferral Agreement will be deducted from a Participant’s Compensation. 


  

	 	4.5	 Vesting. Participant Deferrals shall be 100% vested at all times. 



 

	 	4.6	 Cancellation of Deferrals. The Committee may cancel a Participant’s Deferral election: (a) for
the balance of the Plan Year in which an Unforeseeable Emergency (as defined in Section 2.50) occurs in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(viii), (b) if the Participant receives a
hardship distribution under the 401(k) Plan or any other qualified 401(k) plan maintained by an Affiliate in 



  
 14 













	 	
accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.40l(k)-1(d)(3) (relating to in-service distributions of 401(k) plan elective
contributions as a result of an immediate and heavy financial need), in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(viii), or (c) during periods in which the Participant is unable to perform the
duties of his or her position or any substantially similar position due to a mental or physical impairment that can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of at least six months, provided cancellation occurs by the later of
the end of the taxable year of the Participant or the 15th day of the third month following the date the Participant incurs the disability (as defined in this paragraph) in accordance with Treas.
Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(xii). 

 ARTICLE V 

Discretionary Contributions 
  

	 	5.1	 Discretionary Contributions. A Participating Employer may credit one or more Discretionary Contributions
to a Participant in such amounts and at such times as are determined by the Committee from time to time in its sole discretion. Any such amounts shall be credited at the sole discretion of the Committee, and the fact that a Discretionary
Contribution is credited in one year shall not obligate the Participating Employer or the Committee to continue to make such Discretionary Contributions in subsequent years. Any such Discretionary Contributions shall be subject to the approval of
the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee to the extent required by applicable law. Neither the Participating Employer nor the Committee shall have any obligation to make any such Discretionary Contributions or to make them on a
consistent basis among similarly-situated Participants. Any Discretionary Contributions credited to a Participant’s Account pursuant to this Section shall be credited on a date or dates to be determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute
discretion, and the crediting date or dates may be different for different Participants. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, a reference to Discretionary Contributions shall include Earnings attributable to such contributions. Any
Discretionary Contribution will be credited to a Participant’s Separation from Service Account, unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, elects in writing on or before the date on which the Participant obtains a legally binding right to
such Discretionary Contribution (which election shall be irrevocable on such date) to credit the Discretionary Contribution to a Specified Date Account of a Participant. Following a Separation from Service, a Participant shall not receive any
further Discretionary Contributions. 


  

	 	5.2	 Vesting of Discretionary Contributions. A Participant shall be vested in his or her Discretionary
Contributions described in this Section 5.1, if any, in accordance with the vesting schedules established by the Committee, at the time such amount is first credited to the Participant’s Account under this Plan. The Committee may, at any
time, in its sole and absolute discretion (subject to any approval by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee required by applicable law), increase a Participant’s vested interest in a Discretionary Contribution. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, all Discretionary Contributions shall become 100% vested upon the 



  
 15 













	 	
occurrence of the earliest of: (i) the death of the Participant prior to Separation from Service, (ii) the Disability of the Participant prior to Separation from Service, or
(iii) a Change in Control prior to Separation from Service. The portion of a Participant’s Accounts that remains unvested upon his or her Separation from Service after the application of the terms of this Section shall be forfeited
immediately following the Separation from Service. 

 ARTICLE VI 

Benefits 
  

	 	6.1	 Benefits, Generally. A Participant shall be entitled to the following benefits under the Plan:



  

	 	(a)	 Separation from Service Benefit. Except as provided in Section 6.1(e) below, upon the
Participant’s Separation from Service, he or she shall be entitled to a Separation from Service Benefit. The Separation from Service Benefit shall be equal to the vested portion of the Participant’s Separation from Service Account and the
vested portion of any Specified Date Accounts with respect to which payments have not yet commenced, based on the value of those Accounts as of the end of the calendar month next preceding the calendar month of distribution. Payment of the
Separation from Service Benefit will be made (or begin in the case of installments) according to the Participant’s Deferral election: (i) as soon as is administratively practical on the first Business Day that follows the first January 30th following the Participant’s Separation from Service, or (ii) the first anniversary of the date specified in the immediately preceding (i). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant
is a Specified Employee on the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service, and elects to receive or begin receiving the distribution before the date that is 6 months following the Separation from Service, such distribution will be made
or begin on the first day of the seventh calendar month following the calendar month in which the Separation from Service occurs. If the Separation from Service Benefit is to be paid in the form of installments, any subsequent installment payments
will be paid on the anniversary of the date such payments commence. 


  

	 	(b)	 Specified Date Benefit. If the Participant has established one or more Specified Date Accounts and has
not experienced a Separation from Service prior to the date designated for distribution by the Participant, he or she shall be entitled to a Specified Date Benefit with respect to each such Specified Date Account. The Specified Date Benefit shall be
equal to the vested portion of the Specified Date Account, based on the value of that Account as of the end of the calendar month next preceding the calendar month of distribution. Payment of the Specified Date Benefit will be made (or begin in the
case of installments) as soon as is administratively practical on or after the first Business Day that follows the January 30th of the calendar year




  
 16 













	 	
selected by the Participant in his or her Compensation Deferral Agreement. If the Specified Date Benefit is to be paid in the form of installments, any subsequent installment payments will be
paid as soon as is administratively practical on or after the first Business Day that follows the anniversary of the date described in the immediately preceding sentence. 


 

	 	(c)	 Disability Benefit. In the event that a Participant becomes Disabled, he or she shall be entitled to a
Disability Benefit. The Disability Benefit shall be equal to the vested portion of the Separation from Service Account and the vested portion of the unpaid balances of any Specified Date Accounts. The payment date for the Disability Benefit shall be
as soon as administratively practical on or after the first Business Day of the calendar month next following the calendar month in which the Committee determined that the Participant has become Disabled, and the Disability Benefit shall be based on
the value of the Accounts as of the last day of the calendar month in which the Committee makes a determination as to the Participant’s Disability. The Disability Benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum. 



 

	 	(d)	 Death Benefit. In the event of the Participant’s death, his or her designated Beneficiary(ies)
shall be entitled to a Death Benefit. The Death Benefit shall be equal to the vested portion of the Separation from Service Account and the vested portion of the unpaid balances of any Specified Date Accounts. The payment date for the Death Benefit
shall be as soon as administratively practical on or after the first Business Day of the calendar month next following the calendar month in which the Committee is notified of, and provided reasonably satisfactory proof of, the Participant’s
death, and the Account(s) will be valued as of the end of the calendar month in which such notification and proof are received. The Death Benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum. 



Each Participant may, pursuant to such procedures as the Committee may specify, designate one or more Beneficiaries in connection with the
Plan. If a Participant is married and names someone other than his or her spouse as a primary Beneficiary with respect to any portion of his or her Accounts, spousal consent shall be required to be provided in a form designated by the Committee,
executed by such Participant’s spouse and returned to the Committee. A Participant may change or revoke a Beneficiary designation by delivering to the Committee a new designation (or revocation). Any designation or revocation shall be effective
only if it is received in proper form by the Committee. However, when so received, the designation or revocation shall be effective as of the date the notice is executed (whether or not the Participant still is living), but without prejudice to any
Employer on account of any payment made before the change is recorded. The last effective designation received by the Committee shall supersede all prior designations. If a Participant dies without having effectively designated a Beneficiary, or if
no Beneficiary survives the Participant, the Death Benefit shall be payable (i) to his or her surviving spouse, or (ii) if the Participant is 

  
 17 













	 	
not survived by his or her spouse, to his or her estate. A former spouse shall have no interest under the Plan, as Beneficiary or otherwise, unless the Participant designates such person as a
Beneficiary after dissolution of the marriage, except to the extent provided under the terms of a domestic relations order as described in Code Section 414(p)(l)(B). 


 

	 	(e)	 Change in Control Benefit. A Participant may make an election with respect to the Payment Schedule for a
Change in Control Benefit. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, in the event a Participant makes such an election and experiences a Separation from Service within two years following a Change in Control, the Participant shall be
entitled to a Change in Control Benefit. The Change in Control Benefit shall be equal to the vested portion of the Separation from Service Account and the vested portion of any unpaid Specified Date Accounts, based on the value of those Accounts as
of the end of the calendar month next proceeding the calendar month of distribution. Payment of the Change in Control Benefit will be made as soon as administratively practical on or after the first Business Day of the calendar month next following
the calendar month in which the Separation of Service takes place. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant is a Specified Employee on the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service, a distribution based on a Separation from
Service will be made not earlier than as allowed under Treas. Reg. Sections 409A-l(c)(3)(v) and 1.409A-3(i)(2). 


  

	 	(f)	 Unforeseeable Emergency. A Participant who experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency may submit a written
request to the Committee to receive payment of all or any portion of his or her vested Accounts. Whether a Participant is faced with an Unforeseeable Emergency permitting an emergency payment shall be determined by the Committee based on the
relevant facts and circumstances of each case, but, in any case, a distribution on account of Unforeseeable Emergency may not be made to the extent that such emergency is or may be reimbursed through insurance or otherwise, by liquidation of the
Participant’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not cause severe financial hardship, or by cessation of Deferrals under this Plan. If an emergency payment is approved by the Committee, the amount of the payment shall
not exceed the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the need, taking into account the additional compensation that is available to the Participant as the result of cancellation of Deferrals under the Plan, including amounts necessary to pay any
taxes or penalties that the Participant reasonably anticipates will result from the payment. The amount of the emergency payment shall be subtracted first from the vested portion of the Participant’s Separation from Service Account until
depleted and then from the vested portion(s) of the Specified Date Accounts, beginning with the Specified Date Account with the latest payment commencement date. Emergency payments shall be paid in a single lump sum within the 90-day period following the date the payment is approved by the Committee. No Participant may receive more than one 



  
 18 













	 	
distribution on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency in any Plan Year. A Participant who receives a distribution on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency, and who is still employed by an
Employer shall be prohibited from making Deferrals for the remainder of the Plan Year in which the distribution is made. 

  

	 	(g)	 Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan,
any provision that would cause the Plan to fail to satisfy Code Section 409A will have no force and effect until amended to comply therewith (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Code Section 409A).



  

	 	(h)	 Forfeiture of Unvested Account Balances. Unless otherwise set forth herein or as determined by the
Committee, the unvested portion of a Participant’s Accounts shall be forfeited upon the occurrence of the Participant’s Separation from Service, the Participant’s death, the Participant’s Disability or the occurrence of a Change
in Control. 


  

	 	6.2	 Form of Payment. 



 

	 	(a)	 Separation from Service Benefit. 



 

	 	(i)	 A Participant who is entitled to receive a Separation from Service Benefit shall receive payment of such
benefit in a single lump sum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the Participant is at least 60 years of age at the time of his or her Separation from Service, and (2) the Participant elects an alternate form of payment on the initial
Compensation Deferral Agreement upon which an allocation of Deferrals is made to the Separation from Service Account (or the initial Compensation Deferral Agreement that precedes the Plan Year in which an Employer Contribution is allocated to the
Separation from Service Account), then he or she shall receive a Separation from Service Benefit in the form so elected. Permissible alternate forms of payment for the Separation from Service Benefit are (1) substantially equal annual
installments over a period of two to fifteen years, as elected by the Participant, and (2) a portion as a lump-sum and the remainder in substantially equal annual installments over a period of two to
fifteen years, as elected by the Participant. 


  

	 	(ii)	 Prior to a Plan Year, the Committee may permit, in its sole discretion, the creation of a sub-account within the Separation from Service Account for that Plan Year. If so created, a Participant may elect with respect to the Deferrals and Employer Contributions allocated to that sub-account for that Plan Year any of the permitted forms of payment set forth in Section 6.2(a) above. Each such election shall be made on the Compensation Deferral Agreement that




  
 19 













	 	
pertains to that Plan Year. If more than one sub-account is created, a Participant may elect a different form of payment for each such sub-account. 

  

	 	(b)	 Specified Date Benefit. The Specified Date Benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum, unless the
Participant elects on the Compensation Deferral Agreement with which the Account was established to have the Specified Date Account paid in substantially equal annual installments over a period of two to five years, as elected by the Participant.



 Notwithstanding any Specified Date election of a Participant, if a Participant Separates from Service before
distributions with respect to a Specified Date Account have commenced, dies or becomes Disabled, such amounts shall be paid in accordance with the time and form of payment applicable to the Participant’s Separation from Service Benefit, Death
Benefit, or Disability Benefit (as applicable). With respect to Specified Date Account Balances that have commenced to be paid in installment payments prior to the date of the Separation from Service, such Specified Date Accounts shall continue to
be paid in accordance with the form of payment election applicable to the Specified Date Account. 
  

	 	(c)	 Disability Benefit. In the event of the Participant’s Disability, he or she shall be entitled to a
Disability Benefit as set forth in Section 6.1(c). The Disability Benefit shall be payable in a single lump sum. 


  

	 	(d)	 Death Benefit. In the event of the Participant’s death, his or her designated Beneficiary(ies)
shall be entitled to a Death Benefit as set forth in Section 6.1(d). The Death Benefit shall be payable in a single lump sum. 


  

	 	(e)	 Change in Control Benefit. In the event a Participant (i) makes an election with respect to the
Payment Schedule for a Change in Control Benefit and (ii) experiences a Separation from Service within two years following a Change in Control, he or she shall be entitled to a Change in Control Benefit. The Change in Control Benefit shall be
payable in a single lump sum. 


  

	 	(f)	 Small Account Balances. Notwithstanding any contrary Plan provision, the Committee shall pay the vested
portion of the Participant’s Accounts upon a Separation from Service in a single lump sum if the vested balance of such Accounts (together with any amounts deferred under any other nonqualified deferred compensation plan that must be aggregated
with the Accounts pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-l(c)) is not greater than the amount specified in Code Section 402(g)(1)(B), provided the payment represents the complete liquidation of the
Participant’s interest in the Plan together with any plan with which the Accounts must be aggregated as described above and the Committee’s decision to cash out the Accounts is evidenced no later than the date of payment.




  
 20 













	 	(g)	 Amounts allocated to Company Stock. Any portion of a Participant’s Account that is payable in
Company Stock in accordance with Section 8.6 shall be paid according to the Participant’s Separation from Service election in an equivalent number of shares of Company Stock at the time distribution is otherwise scheduled to commence
hereunder. 


  

	 	(h)	 Rules Applicable to Installment Payments. If a Payment Schedule specifies substantially equal
installment payments, annual payments will be made beginning as of the payment commencement date for such installment, and shall continue on each anniversary thereof until the number of installment payments specified in the Payment Schedule has been
paid. The amount of each installment payment shall be determined by dividing (i) by (ii), where (i) equals the vested Account Balance as of the Valuation Date and (ii) equals the remaining number of installment payments. For purposes of
this subsection (h), the term “Valuation Date” means a date that is at the end of the calendar month preceding the month in which the distribution is made, or such other date as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine in a
manner consistent with Code Section 409A. 


 For purposes of Article VI, installment payments will be treated as a
single form of payment. 
  

	 	6.3	 Acceleration of or Delay in Payments. The Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to
accelerate the time or form of payment of a benefit owed to the Participant hereunder, provided such acceleration is permitted under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4). The Committee may also, in its sole and
absolute discretion, delay the time for payment of a benefit owed to the Participant hereunder, to the extent permitted under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(7). Subject to the following sentence, if the Plan
receives a domestic relations order (within the meaning of Code Section 414(p)(1)(B)) directing that all or a portion of a Participant’s Accounts be paid to an “alternate payee,” any amounts to be paid to the alternate payee(s)
shall be paid only in a single lump sum, and such amounts will be subtracted from the Participant’s Accounts. Any domestic relations order will have effect under the Plan only if the Committee determines that it complies with such policies and
procedures as the Committee (in its discretion) may specify from time to time. 


  

	 	6.4	 Distributions Treated as Made Upon a Designated Event. If the Company fails to make any distribution on
account of any of the events listed in Section 6.1, either intentionally or unintentionally, within the time period specified in Section 6.2, but the payment is made within the same calendar year, such distribution will be treated as made
within the time period specified in Section 6.2 pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(d). In addition, if a distribution is not made due to a dispute with respect to such distribution, the distribution
may be delayed in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(g). 


  

	 	6.5	 Deductibility. All amounts distributed from the Plan are intended to be deductible by the Company or a
Participating Employer. If the Committee determines in good 



  
 21 













	 	
faith that all or a portion of any distribution will not be deductible by the Company or a Participating Employer solely by reason of the limitation under Section 162(m) of the Code, then
such distribution to the Participant will be delayed until the first year in which it is deductible. 

 ARTICLE VII 

Modifications to Payment Schedules 
  

	 	7.1	 Participant’s Right to Modify. A Participant may modify any or all of the Payment Schedules with
respect to the Participant’s Separation from Service Account or Specified Date Account(s), consistent with the permissible Payment Schedules available under the Plan, provided such modification complies with the requirements of this Article VII
and Code Section 409A and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b). Modifications of Payment Schedules with respect to Accounts not explicitly identified in the immediately preceding sentence are not permissible under the Plan. 



 

	 	7.2	 Time of Election. The date on which a modification election is submitted to the Committee must be at
least 12 months prior to the date on which payment is scheduled to commence under the Payment Schedule in effect prior to the modification in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(l)(iii).



  

	 	7.3	 Date of Payment under Modified Payment Schedule. The date on which payments are to commence under the
modified Payment Schedule must be no earlier than five years after the date on which payment would have commenced under the original Payment Schedule (or, in the case of installment payments treated as a single payment, five years after the first
amount was scheduled to be paid) in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(l)(ii). Under no circumstances may a modification election result in an acceleration of payments in violation of Code
Section 409A. 


  

	 	7.4	 Effective Date. A modification election submitted in accordance with this Article VII is irrevocable
upon receipt by the Committee and shall not become effective until 12 months after such date in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(l)(i). 



 

	 	7.5	 Effect on Accounts. An election to modify a Payment Schedule is specific to the Account or payment event
to which it applies, and shall not be construed to affect the Payment Schedules of any other Accounts. 



  
 22 












 ARTICLE VIII 

Valuation of Account Balances; Investments 
  

	 	8.1	 Valuation. Deferrals shall be credited to appropriate Accounts on or about the date such Compensation
would have been paid to the Participant absent the Compensation Deferral Agreement. Discretionary Contributions shall be credited at the time or times determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Valuation of Accounts shall be performed under
procedures approved by the Committee. 


  

	 	8.2	 Adjustment for Earnings. Each Account will be adjusted to reflect Earnings on each Business Day.
Adjustments shall reflect the net earnings, gains, losses, expenses, appreciation and depreciation associated with the investment option for the deemed investment of each portion of the Account allocated to such option (“investment
allocation”). 


  

	 	8.3	 Investment Options. The options for the deemed investment of Accounts will be determined by the
Committee. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall be permitted to add, remove or substitute investment options from the Plan from time to time; provided however, that any such additions, removals or substitutions of investment options shall
not be effective with respect to any period prior to the effective date of such change. In addition, following a Change in Control, the Committee may add or remove an investment option, provided however, that (i) any decision to add or remove
an investment option shall be made in good faith, and (ii) there shall at all times be no less than the number of investment options that existed immediately prior to the Change of Control. 



 

	 	8.4	 Investment Allocations. Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan to the contrary, a Participant’s
investment allocation constitutes a deemed, not actual, investment among the investment options comprising the investment menu. At no time shall a Participant have any real or beneficial ownership in any investment option included in the investment
menu, nor shall the Participating Employer or any trustee acting on its behalf have any obligation to purchase actual securities as a result of a Participant’s investment allocation. A Participant’s investment allocation shall be used
solely for purposes of adjusting the value of a Participant’s Account Balances. 


 A Participant shall specify a
deemed investment allocation for each of his or her Accounts in accordance with procedures established by the Committee in its discretion and from time to time. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, (a) allocation among the investment
options must be designated in increments of 1%, and (b) the Participant’s investment allocation will become effective on the same Business Day or, in the case of investment allocations received after a time specified by the Committee, the
next Business Day. 
 A Participant may change an investment allocation on any Business Day, both with respect to future credits to the Plan
and with respect to existing Account Balances, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Committee. Changes shall become effective on the same Business Day or, in the case of investment allocations received after a time specified by the
Committee, the next Business Day, and shall be applied prospectively. 

  
 23 













	 	8.5	 Unallocated Deferrals and Accounts. If the Participant fails to make an investment allocation with
respect to an Account, such Account shall be deemed invested in an investment option, the primary objective of which is the preservation of capital, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. 



 

	 	8.6	 Company Stock. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if a Participant elects to defer
payment under the Plan of an award that by its terms is payable in Company Stock, such payment shall be made in shares of Company Stock at the time and in the manner prescribed under the Plan. The award will continue to be subject to the adjustment
provisions of the applicable plan and/or award agreement. In the event that the Company Stock is no longer publicly traded, the Committee may make reasonable provision for such award to be paid in cash or other property as appropriate in the
circumstances. In no event shall any portion of any such deferral be allocated to any investment option offered under the Plan. 


  

	 	8.7	 Dividend Equivalents. Dividend equivalents with respect to Company Stock will be credited to the
applicable Accounts in the form of additional shares or units of Company Stock or in cash, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. In the event that the Company Stock is no longer publicly traded, the Committee may make reasonable
provision for such dividend equivalents to be paid in cash or other property as appropriate in the circumstances. In the event of a corporate transaction affecting the capitalization of the Company, any shares of Company stock credited as dividend
equivalent payments shall be adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be awarded under the Plan. 


  

	 	8.8	 No Warranties. Neither the Company nor the Committee warrants or represents that the value of any
Participant’s Account will increase. Each Participant assumes the risk in connection with the deemed investment of his or her Accounts. 



ARTICLE IX 

Administration 
  

	 	9.1	 Plan Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have the
authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan, including the authority and ability to delegate administrative functions to a third party. Claims for benefits shall be filed with the Committee and resolved in accordance
with the claims procedures in Article XII. 


  

	 	9.2	 Actions by Committee. Each decision of a majority of the members of the Committee then in office shall
constitute the final and binding act of the Committee. The Committee may act with or without a meeting being called or held and shall keep minutes of all meetings held and a record of all actions taken by written consent. 



  
 24 













	 	9.3	 Powers of Committee. The Committee shall have all powers and discretionary authority necessary or
appropriate to supervise the administration of the Plan and to control its operation in accordance with its terms, including, but not by way of limitation, the following powers and discretionary authority: 



 

	 	(a)	 To interpret and determine the meaning and validity of the provisions of the Plan, and to determine any
question arising under, or in connection with, the administration, operation or validity of the Plan, or any amendment thereto; 


  

	 	(b)	 To determine any and all considerations affecting the eligibility of any Employee to become a Participant or
remain a Participant in the Plan; 


  

	 	(c)	 To cause one or more separate Accounts to be maintained for each Participant; 



 

	 	(d)	 To cause Deferrals and Discretionary Contributions, if applicable, as well as deemed Earnings thereon, to be
credited to Participants’ Accounts; 


  

	 	(e)	 To establish and revise an accounting method or formula for the Plan; 



 

	 	(f)	 To determine the status and rights of Participants and their spouses, Beneficiaries or estates;



  

	 	(g)	 To employ such counsel, agents, and advisers, and to obtain such legal, clerical and other services, as it may
deem necessary or appropriate in carrying out the provisions of the Plan; 


  

	 	(h)	 To establish, from time to time, rules for the performance of its powers and duties and for the administration
of the Plan; 


  

	 	(i)	 To arrange for periodic distribution to each Participant of a statement of benefits accrued under the Plan;



  

	 	(j)	 To publish a claims and appeal procedure satisfying the minimum standards of Section 503 of ERISA pursuant
to which individuals or estates may claim Plan benefits and appeal denials of such claims; 


  

	 	(k)	 To determine the form, manner and time for making elections under the Plan (provided that the deadlines
prescribed by the Committee may be earlier, but not later, than the deadlines otherwise specified in the Plan); 


  

	 	(l)	 To delegate to any one or more of its members or to any other person, severally or jointly, the authority to
perform for and on behalf of the Committee one or more of the functions of the Committee under the Plan; and 



  
 25 













	 	(m)	 To decide all issues and questions regarding Account balances, and the time, form, manner, and amount of
distributions to Participants. 


  

	 	9.4	 Administration Upon Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control, the Committee, as constituted
immediately prior to such Change in Control, shall continue to act as the Committee. The individual who was the Chief Executive Officer of the Company immediately prior to the Change in Control (the “Ex-CEO”) shall have the authority (but
shall not be obligated) to appoint an independent third party to act as the Committee. 


 After a Change in Control, no
member of the Committee may be removed (and/or replaced) by the Company without the consent of either (a) 2/3rds of the members of the Board of Directors and a majority of the Participants and the Beneficiaries who have account
balances under the Plan at the time of the approval (with a majority being determined based on the dollar amount of the account balances of the Participants and Beneficiaries consenting to the action (rather than the number of Participants and
Beneficiaries consenting to the action)) or (b) the Ex-CEO or, in the event the Ex-CEO is no longer a Participant, his or her appointee who is a Participant. 

The Participating Employers shall, with respect to the Committee identified under this Section: (a) directly pay all reasonable expenses
and fees of the Committee (or promptly reimburse the Committee, with all such reimbursements to be made in a manner that avoids subjecting the Committee to any taxes, costs or income inclusion under Code Section 409A), (b) indemnify the
Committee (including individuals serving as Committee members) in accordance with Section 9.6, and (c) supply full and timely information to the Committee on all matters related to the Plan, Participants, Beneficiaries and Accounts as the
Committee may reasonably require. 
  

	 	9.5	 Withholding. The Participating Employer shall have the right to withhold from any payment due under the
Plan (or with respect to any amounts credited to the Plan) any taxes or other amounts required by law to be withheld in respect of such payment (or credit). Withholdings with respect to amounts credited to the Plan shall be deducted from
Compensation that has not been deferred to the Plan. 


  

	 	9.6	 Indemnification. The Participating Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless each employee, officer,
member of the Board of Directors, member of the Compensation Committee, agent or organization, to whom or to which are delegated duties, responsibilities, and authority under the Plan or otherwise with respect to administration of the Plan,
including, without limitation, the Compensation Committee and its agents, and the Committee and its agents, against all claims, liabilities, fines and penalties, and all expenses reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him or her or it (including but
not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) which arise as a result of his or her or its actions or failure to act in connection with the operation and administration of the Plan to the extent lawfully allowable and to the extent that such
claim, liability, fine, penalty, or expense is not paid for 



  
 26 












 by liability insurance purchased or paid for by the Participating Employer. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Participating Employer shall not indemnify any individual or entity if his or her or its actions or failure to act were not taken or omitted in good faith. Further, the Participating Employer shall have the right to direct and
control any settlement or compromise of any action under this Section 9.6. 
  

	 	9.7	 Delegation of Authority. In the administration of this Plan, the Committee may, from time to time,
employ agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees fit, and may from time to time consult with legal counsel who shall be legal counsel to the Company. 



 

	 	9.8	 Binding Decisions or Actions. The decision or action of the Committee in respect of any question arising
out of or in connection with the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan and the rules and regulations thereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan, and shall be given the
maximum deference permitted by law. 


  

	 	9.9	 Eligibility to Participate. No member of the Committee who also is an Eligible Director or Eligible
Employee shall be excluded from participating in the Plan, but as a member of the Committee, he or she shall not be entitled to act or pass upon any matters pertaining specifically to his or her own Account. 



 

	 	9.10	 Administrative Expenses. All expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan by the Committee, or
otherwise, including legal fees and expenses, shall be paid and borne by the Participating Employers. 


  

	 	9.11	 Non-Uniform Treatment. The Committee’s determinations under
the Plan need not be uniform and any such determinations may be made selectively among Participants. 


 ARTICLE X

 Amendment and Termination 
  

	 	10.1	 Termination. The Company and each other Participating Employer intend to continue the Plan indefinitely,
and to maintain each Participant’s Account until it is scheduled to be paid to him or her in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. However, the Plan is voluntary on the part of the Company and the other Participating Employers, and the
Participating Employers do not guarantee to continue the Plan. Accordingly, the Company reserves the right to discontinue its sponsorship of the Plan (or the sponsorship of another Participating Employer) and/or to terminate the Plan at any time
with respect to any or all of the participating Eligible Employees, by action of the Board of Directors. Upon the termination of the Plan with respect to any Participating Employer, the participation of the affected Participants who are employed by
that Participating Employer shall terminate. However, after the Plan termination, the Account Balances of such Participants shall continue to be credited with Deferrals attributable to a deferral 



  
 27 












 election that was in effect prior to the Plan termination to the extent deemed necessary to
comply with Code Section 409A and related Treasury Regulations, and additional amounts shall continue to credited or debited to such Participants’ Account Balances pursuant to Article VIII. The investment options available to Participants
following the termination of the Plan shall be comparable in number and type to those investment options available to Participants in the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year in which the Plan termination is effective. In addition, following a Plan
termination, Participant Account Balances shall remain in the Plan and shall not be distributed until such amounts become eligible for distribution in accordance with the other applicable provisions of the Plan. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, to the extent permitted by Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix), the Company may provide that, upon termination of the Plan, all Account Balances of the Participants shall be distributed, subject to
and in accordance with any rules established by the Company deemed necessary to comply with the applicable requirements and limitations of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix). 

 

	 	10.2	 Amendments. 


  

	 	(a)	 The Company, by action taken by the Board of Directors or its authorized delegates, may amend the Plan at any
time and for any reason, provided that any such amendment shall not reduce the vested Account Balances of any Participant accrued as of the date of any such amendment or restatement (as if the Participant had incurred a Separation from Service on
such date) or otherwise adversely affect the rights of a Participant without the Participant’s consent. The Compensation Committee or its authorized delegates shall have the authority to amend the Plan for the purpose of: (i) conforming
the Plan to the requirements of law (which amendments, notwithstanding any provisions in this Section 10.2 to the contrary, may also be made without the consent of any Participant or any other individual or entity), (ii) facilitating the
administration of the Plan, and (iii) clarifying provisions based on the Compensation Committee’s (or its delegates’) interpretation of the document. 



 

	 	(b)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, if and to the extent the Compensation Committee or its
authorized delegates shall determine that the terms of the Plan may result in the failure of the Plan, or amounts deferred by or for any Participant under the Plan, to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, or any applicable
regulations or guidance promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury in connection therewith, the Compensation Committee or its authorized delegates shall have authority to take such action to amend, modify, cancel or terminate the Plan (effective
with respect to all Employers) or distribute any or all of the vested amounts deferred by or for a Participant, as it deems necessary or advisable, including without limitation: 



 

	 	(i)	 Any amendment or modification of the Plan to conform the Plan to the requirements of Code Section 409A or
any regulations or other guidance thereunder (including, without limitation, any amendment or modification of the terms of any applicable to any Participant’s Accounts regarding the timing or form of payment). 



  
 28 













	 	(ii)	 Any cancellation or termination of any unvested interest in a Participant’s Accounts without any payment
to the Participant. 


  

	 	(iii)	 Any cancellation or termination of any vested interest in any Participant’s Accounts, with immediate
payment to the Participant of the amount otherwise payable to such Participant. 


  

	 	(iv)	 Any such amendment, modification, cancellation, or termination of the Plan that may adversely affect the rights
of a Participant without the Participant’s consent. 


 ARTICLE XI 

Informal Funding 
  

	 	11.1	 General Assets. Obligations established under the terms of the Plan may be satisfied from the general
funds of the Participating Employers, or a trust described in this Article XI. No Participant, spouse or Beneficiary shall have any right, title or interest whatever in any assets of the Participating Employers. Nothing contained in this Plan, and
no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Participating Employers and any Director, Employee, spouse, or Beneficiary. To the extent that any
person acquires a right to receive payments hereunder, such rights are no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Participating Employers. 



 

	 	11.2	 Rabbi Trust. A Participating Employer may, in its sole discretion, establish a grantor trust, commonly
known as a rabbi trust, as a vehicle for accumulating assets to pay benefits under the Plan. Payments under the Plan may be paid from the general assets of the Participating Employers or from the assets of any such rabbi trust. Payment from any such
source shall reduce the obligation owed to the Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan. 


 ARTICLE XII 

Claims 
  

	 	12.1	 Claim Procedure. A Participant or Beneficiary (the “Claimant”) must file with the Committee a
written claim for Plan benefits if the Claimant believes he or she has not received the benefits he or she is entitled to receive. 


  

	 	(a)	 In General. Notice of a denial of a claim for benefits (other than benefits due to Disability) will be
provided by the Committee to the Claimant within 90 days after the Committee’s receipt of the Claimant’s written claim for benefits, provided that the Committee, in its discretion, may determine that




  
 29 













	 	an additional 90-day extension is warranted if it needs additional time to review the claim due to special circumstances. In such event, the Committee shall notify the Claimant
prior to the end of the initial 90-day period that an extension is needed, the reason therefor and the date by which the Committee expects to render a decision. 


 

	 	(b)	 Disability Claims. Notice of a denial of a claim for benefits due to Disability (a “Disability
Claim”) will be provided within 45 days of the Committee’s receipt of the Claimant’s Disability Claim. If the Committee determines that it needs additional time to review the Disability Claim due to matters beyond the control of the
Committee, the time period for making a determination may be extended for up to 30 days. In such event, the Committee will provide the Claimant with a notice of the extension before the end of the initial
45-day period. If the Committee determines that a decision cannot be made within the first extension period due to matters beyond the control of the Committee, the time period for making a determination may be
further extended for an additional 30 days. If such an additional extension is necessary, the Committee shall notify the Claimant prior to the expiration of the initial 30 day extension. Any notice of extension shall indicate the circumstances
necessitating the extension of time, the date by which the Committee expects to furnish a notice of decision, the specific standards on which such entitlement to a benefit is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim and any
additional information needed to resolve those issues. A Claimant will be provided a minimum of 45 days to submit any necessary additional information to the Committee. In the event that a 30 day extension is necessary due to a Claimant’s
failure to submit information necessary to decide a claim, the period for furnishing a notice of decision shall be tolled from the date on which the notice of the extension is sent to the Claimant until the earlier of the date the Claimant responds
to the request for additional information or the response deadline 


  

	 	(c)	 Contents of Notice. If a Claimant’s request for benefits is denied, the notice of denial shall be
in writing and shall contain the following information: 


  

	 	(i)	 The specific reason or reasons for the denial in plain language; 



 

	 	(ii)	 A specific reference to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; 



 

	 	(iii)	 A description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an
explanation of why such material or information is necessary; 


  

	 	(iv)	 An explanation of the claims review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures;




  
 30 













	 	(v)	 A statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following
an adverse determination upon review; and 


  

	 	(vi)	 In the case of a complete or partial denial of a Disability Claim, the notice shall provide a statement that
the Committee will provide to the Claimant, upon request and free of charge, a copy of any internal rule, guideline, protocol or other similar criterion that was relied upon in making the decision. 



 

	 	12.2	 Appeal of Denied Claims. 



 

	 	(a)	 In General. A Claimant whose claim (other than a Disability Claim) has been wholly or partially denied
shall be entitled to appeal the claim denial by filing a written appeal to the Committee within 60 days after Claimant’s receipt of the Committee’s decision denying the claim. Any claim filed more than 60 days after Claimant’s receipt
of the decision will be untimely. A Claimant who timely appeals a denied claim will have the opportunity, upon request and free of charge, to have reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the
Claimant’s appeal. The Claimant may submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to his or her claim with the appeal. The Committee will review all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by
the Claimant relating to the claim, regardless of whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial claim determination. The Committee shall make a determination on the appeal within 60 days after receiving the Claimant’s
written appeal, provided that the Committee may determine that an additional 60-day extension is necessary due to special circumstances, in which event the Committee shall notify the Claimant prior to the end
of the initial 60-day period that an extension is needed, the reason therefor and the date by which the Committee expects to render a decision. 



 

	 	(b)	 Disability Claims. An appeal of a denied Disability Claim must be filed in writing with the Committee no
later than 180 days after receipt of the written notification of such claim denial. The review shall be conducted by the Committee (exclusive of the person who made the initial adverse decision or such person’s subordinate). In reviewing the
appeal, the Committee shall: (i) not afford deference to the initial denial of the Disability Claim, (ii) consult a medical professional who has appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine relating to the Claimant’s
Disability and who was neither consulted as part of the initial denial nor is the subordinate of such individual and (iii) identify the medical or vocational experts whose advice was obtained with respect to the initial benefit denial, without
regard to whether the advice was relied upon in making the decision. The Committee shall make its decision regarding the merits of the denied Disability Claim within 45 days following receipt of the




  
 31 













	 	appeal (or within 90 days after such receipt, in a case where there are special circumstances requiring extension of time for reviewing the appealed claim). If an extension of time for reviewing the appeal is required
because of special circumstances, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the commencement of the extension. The notice will indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which
the Committee expects to render the determination on review. Following its review of any additional information submitted by the Claimant, the Committee shall render a decision on its review of the denied Disability Claim. 


 

	 	(c)	 Contents of Notice. If the Claimant’s appeal is denied in whole or part, the Committee shall
provide written notice to the Claimant of such denial. The written notice shall include the following information: 


  

	 	(i)	 The specific reason or reasons for the denial; 



 

	 	(ii)	 A specific reference to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; 



 

	 	(iii)	 A statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and
copies of all documents, records, and other information relevant to the Claimant’s claim; 


  

	 	(iv)	 A statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA; and



  

	 	(v)	 For the denial of a Disability Claim, the notice will also include a statement that the Committee will provide,
upon request and free of charge, (A) any internal rule, guideline, protocol or other similar criterion relied upon in making the decision, (B) any medical opinion relied upon to make the decision and (C) the required statement under Section 2560.503-1 (j)(5)(iii) of the Department of Labor regulations. 


  

	 	12.3	 Relevance. For purposes of Section 12.1 and Section 12.2, documents, records, or other
information shall be considered “relevant” to a Claimant’s claim for benefits if such documents, records or other information: 


  

	 	(a)	 were relied upon in making the benefit determination; 



 

	 	(b)	 were submitted, considered, or generated in the course of making the benefit determination, without regard to
whether such documents, records or other information were relied upon in making the benefit determination; or 



  
 32 













	 	(c)	 demonstrate compliance with the administrative processes and safeguards required pursuant to Section 12.1
and Section 12.2 regarding the making of the benefit determination. 


  

	 	12.4	 Six Month Deadline for Filing Suit. A Claimant dissatisfied with the Committee’s decision upon
appeal under Section 12.2 must file any lawsuit challenging that decision no later than six months after the Committee mails the notice of denial, regardless of any state or federal statues establishing provisions relating to limitations on
actions. Any suit brought more than six months after the denial on appeal shall be deemed untimely. In ruling on any such suit, the court shall uphold the Committee’s determinations unless they constitute an abuse of discretion or fraud. No
Claimant may institute any action or proceeding in any state or federal court of law or equity, or before any administrative tribunal or arbitrator, for a claim for benefits under the Plan until he or she first has exhausted the procedures set forth
in Sections 12.1 and 12.2. 


  

	 	12.5	 Decisions of Committee. All actions, interpretations, and decisions of the Committee shall be conclusive
and binding on all persons, and shall be given the maximum deference permitted by law. 


 ARTICLE XIII 

General Provisions 
  

	 	13.1	 Assignment. No interest of any Participant, spouse or Beneficiary under this Plan and no benefit payable
hereunder shall be assigned as security for a loan, and any such purported assignment shall be null, void and of no effect, nor shall any such interest or any such benefit be subject in any manner, either voluntarily or involuntarily, to
anticipation, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance by or through any Participant, spouse or Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, however, the Committee has the discretion to make payments to an alternate payee in
accordance with the terms of a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(l )(B)). 


 A Participating
Employer may assign any or all of its liabilities under this Plan in connection with any restructuring, recapitalization, sale of assets or other similar transactions affecting such Participating Employer without the consent of the Participant or
any other individual or entity. 
  

	 	13.2	 No Legal or Equitable Rights or Interest. No Participant or other person or entity shall have any legal
or equitable rights or interest in this Plan that are not expressly granted in this Plan. Participation in this Plan does not give any person any right to be retained in the service of a Participating Employer. The right and power of a Participating
Employer to dismiss or discharge an Employee is expressly reserved. 


  

	 	13.3	 No Guarantee of Tax Consequences. While the Plan is intended to provide U.S. income tax deferral for
Participants, the Plan is not a guarantee that the intended tax deferral will be achieved. Participants are solely responsible and liable for the 



  
 33 













	 	
satisfaction of all taxes, costs and penalties that may arise in connection with this Plan (including any taxes arising under Code Section 409A). No Participating Employer or any of their
directors, officers or employees shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any Participant harmless from any such taxes, penalties or costs. No Participating Employer makes any representations or warranties as to the tax consequences
to a Participant or a Participant’s Beneficiary(ies) resulting from eligibility for, or participation in, the Plan. 

  

	 	13.4	 No Effect on Service. Neither the establishment or maintenance of the Plan, the making of any Deferrals
nor any action of a Participating Employer or the Committee, shall be held or construed to confer upon any individual: (a) any right to be continued as an employee or (b) upon dismissal, any right or interest in any specific assets of any
Participating Employer or the Committee other than as provided in the Plan. Each Participating Employer expressly reserves the right to discharge any employee at any time, with or without cause. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to
constitute a contract of employment between an Employee and any Participating Employer. 


  

	 	13.5	 Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be delivered to the Committee under this Plan
shall be delivered in writing, in person, or through such electronic means as is established by the Committee. Notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the
receipt for registration or certification. Written transmission shall be sent by certified mail to: 


 MIRION
TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 
 2652 MCGRAW AVENUE 

IRVINE, CA 92614 
 ATTN:
VICE PRESIDENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES 
 Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a Participant under this Plan shall be
sufficient if in writing or hand-delivered, or sent by mail to the last known address of the Participant. 
  

	 	13.6	 Headings. The headings of Sections are included solely for convenience of reference, and if there is any
conflict between such headings and the text of this Plan, the text shall control. 


  

	 	13.7	 Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or
unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof and the Committee may elect in its sole discretion to construe such invalid or unenforceable provisions in a manner that conforms to applicable law or as
if such provisions, to the extent invalid or unenforceable, had not been included. 


  

	 	13.8	 Lost Participants or Beneficiaries. Any Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to a benefit from the
Plan has the duty to keep the Committee advised of his or her 



  
 34 













	 	
current mailing address. If benefit payments are returned to the Plan or are not presented for payment after a reasonable amount of time, the Committee shall presume that the payee is missing.
The Committee, after making such efforts as in its discretion it deems reasonable and appropriate to locate the payee, shall stop payment on any uncashed checks and may discontinue making future payments until contact with the payee is restored to
the extent permitted by Code Section 409A. 

  

	 	13.9	 Facility of Payment to a Minor. If a distribution is to be made to a minor, or to a person who is
otherwise incompetent, then the Committee may, in its discretion, make such distribution: (a) to the legal guardian, or if none, to a parent of a minor payee with whom the payee maintains his or her residence, or (b) to the conservator or
committee or, if none, to the person having custody of an incompetent payee. Any such distribution shall fully discharge the Committee, the Participating Employers, and the Plan from further liability on account thereof. 



 

	 	13.10	 Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan shall be construed, administered and enforced in accordance
with ERISA, and to the extent not preempted by ERISA, with the laws of the State of California (other than California’s conflict of laws provisions). 


  

	 	13.11	 Compliance with Code Section 409A. This Plan is intended to be administered in compliance with Code
Section 409A and each provision of the Plan shall be interpreted, to the extent possible, to comply with Code Section 409A. 



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned executed this Plan as of the 30th day of June, 2015.
