The amount of any such reduction shall be credited to the Eligible Director’s Account in accordance with Article 5.
3.2.    Filing of Election.  Except as provided in Section 3.3, no Election shall be effective with respect to Annual Fees and/or Equity Awards unless it is filed with the Company on or before the close of business on December 31 of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year to which the Election applies.  An Election described in the preceding sentence shall become irrevocable on December 31 of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year to which the Election applies.
3.3.    Filing of Election by New Eligible Directors.  Notwithstanding Section 3.2, a New Eligible Director may elect to defer up to 85% of his or her Annual Fees and/or all or any portion Equity Award earned for the performance of services in the Plan Year in which the New Eligible Director becomes a New Eligible Director, beginning with the next following payment of any Annual Fees and/or Equity Awards after the filing of an Election with the Company and before the close of such Plan Year by making and filing the Election with the Company within 30 days of the date on which such New Eligible Director becomes a New Eligible Director.

A separate Election may be made for each Plan Year as to which an Eligible Director desires to defer such Eligible Director’s Annual Fees and/or Equity Awards, or an Eligible Director may make an Election with respect to a Plan Year that will remain in effect for subsequent Plan Years unless the Eligible Director revokes such Election or timely makes a new Election with respect to a subsequent Plan Year.  Any revocation of an Election must be in writing and must be filed with the Company on or before December 31 of the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year to which such revocation applies.  The failure of an Eligible Director to make an Election for any Plan Year shall not affect such Eligible Director’s right to make an Election for any other Plan Year.
3.5.    Election of Form of Equity Award.  If Eligible Directors are entitled to designate the form of equity to be awarded pursuant to an annual Equity Award, each Eligible Director shall, contemporaneously with an Election to defer all or a portion of an annual Equity Award, also elect such form of equity applicable to the annual Equity Award.  This election as to the form of an annual Equity Award shall be subject to the same timing and revocation requirements as an Election as described in Section 3.2 and Section 3.3.
3.6.    Distribution Events.
3.6.1.    Separation from Service.  A Participant may designate Separation from Service, or a specified number of years after the Participant’s Separation from Service, as a distribution event.

3.6.2.    Specified Date.  A Participant may designate a specific date as a distribution event.  
3.6.3.    Death.  The death of a Participant or an Inactive Participant prior to complete distribution of the Account shall be a distribution event.  
3.6.4.    Election of Distribution Event.  A designation of a distribution event shall be made contemporaneously with an Election or shall be made in a Subsequent Deferral in the manner described in Section 3.7.  Furthermore, a Participant may elect a distribution event that is the first to occur of a distribution event election under Section 3.6.1 or Section 3.6.2.  If no distribution event is designated pursuant to Section 3.6.1 or Section 3.6.2, then the Participant’s Separation from Service shall be a distribution event.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan otherwise and notwithstanding any election of a later distribution event, a Participant’s death prior to full distribution of the Participant’s Account shall be a distribution event. 
3.7.    Subsequent Deferrals.  A Participant may subsequently change a distribution election made under Section 3.6.2, may further defer a distribution event that would have occurred due to a Separation from Service and/or may change the form of distribution elected pursuant to Section 4.1 (each a “Subsequent Deferral”) provided that (i) the Subsequent Deferral shall not become effective until the date that is 12 months after the most recent of the relevant Election or Subsequent Deferral, as applicable, (ii) the specified date or number of years after Separation from Service elected in the Subsequent Deferral must be 5 years or more after the date the distribution is scheduled to be made, except for a distribution event due to the Participant’s death, and (iii) the Subsequent Deferral must be made at least 12 months before the date the distribution is scheduled to be made.

Subject to any required delay under Section 3.10, the Company shall make a lump-sum payment or commence making installment payments, as applicable, of any amount to which such election applies on the applicable of the following dates (or if such date is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day):  (a) the date 60 days after a distribution event due to death, (b) if the distribution event is due to Separation from Service, as soon as practicable in January of the year following the year of the Participant’s Separation from Service, (c) if the distribution event is a number of years following Separation from Service, as soon as practicable in January of the year following the specified number of years after the Participant’s Separation from Service, (d) if the distribution event is a specified date, on the specified date (or, if such date is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day), (e) the date that is 30 days after any distribution event permitted under Section 409A as the Committee may approve and set forth in an election form.
3.9.    Rabbi Trust.  The Committee may authorize the Company to establish an irrevocable trust with a duly authorized bank or corporation with trust powers designated by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“Rabbi Trust”), pursuant to such terms and conditions as are set forth in the governing trust agreement.  Any such Rabbi Trust shall be intended to be treated as a “grantor trust” under the Code, and the establishment of the Rabbi Trust shall not be intended to cause Participants performing services for the Company to realize current income on amounts contributed thereto nor to cause the Plan to be “funded” with respect to the Company, 

 5 




and the Rabbi Trust shall be so interpreted.  Any amounts subsequently due to a Participant under the Plan shall be first satisfied by the Rabbi Trust, and any remaining obligations shall be satisfied by the Company, in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
3.10.    Delay of Payment Under Certain Circumstances.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, if the Committee reasonably determines with respect to any payment under the Plan that the making of such payment would violate (i) the terms of any loan arrangement or similar contract to which the Company is a party and such violation would cause material harm to the Company or (ii) Federal securities law or any other law applicable to the Company, such payment shall be delayed until the earliest date the Company reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will not cause such violation (or, in the case of (i) above, such violation will not cause material harm to the Company) and any amounts for which distribution is delayed pursuant to this Section shall continue to be credited or debited with additional amounts in accordance with Section 5.2.
3.11.    Discretion to Distribute in Full Upon or Following a Change of Control.  To the extent permitted under Section 409A, in connection with a Change of Control, and for the 12‐month period following a Change of Control, the Committee may exercise its discretion to terminate the Plan and, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the terms of any Election, distribute the Account balance of each Participant in full and thereby effect the revocation of any outstanding Elections.  For purposes of this Plan, “Change of Control” means a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, in each case within the meaning of Section 409A.

4.1.    Forms of Distribution.
4.1.1.    Distribution Form.  Amounts credited to an Account shall be distributed, pursuant to an Election, in one of the following forms of distribution:
4.1.1.1.    A lump-sum payment; or
4.1.1.2.    Substantially equal annual installments over a period of not more than 10 years.
If an Eligible Director fails to elect a form of distribution in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.1, he or she shall be deemed to have elected to receive a lump-sum payment as the form of distribution.  In the event the payment event is due to death, the form of distribution shall be limited to a lump-sum payment.  For purposes of the Plan and Section 409A of the Code, annual installments under Section 4.1.1.2 shall be treated as the entitlement to a single payment.
4.1.2.    Payment Form.  A Participant who has made an election to defer Annual Fees payable in the form of equity of the Company pursuant to Section 5.1.1 or an Equity Award shall receive a distribution from the Account in the number and kind of equity allocated to the Stock Fund.  Unless otherwise approved by the Committee, all other distributions shall be made in the form of cash payments.

 6 




4.1.3.    Lump-Sum Distribution for Small Accounts.  To the extent permitted under Section 409A, notwithstanding any Election or any other provision of the Plan to the contrary:
4.1.3.1.    distributions shall be made in the form of a lump-sum payment unless the portion of a Participant’s Account subject to distribution pursuant to Section 4.1.1.2, as of the payment commencement date, has a value of more than $10,000; and
4.1.3.2.    following a Participant’s Separation from Service for any reason, if the amount remaining credited to the Participant’s Account at the time of or after giving effect to any other distribution has a value of $10,000 or less, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, direct that such amount be distributed to the Participant (or Beneficiary, as applicable) in one lump-sum payment.
4.2.    Determination of Account Balances For Purposes of Distribution.  The amount of any distribution made pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be based on the balance in the Participant’s Account on the date of distribution and the applicable distribution period.  For this purpose, the value of a Participant’s Account shall be calculated by taking into account applicable credits or debits in accordance with Section 5.2 through the end of the day immediately preceding the date of distribution.  In the event an installment form of distribution election is applicable to the Stock Fund, each installment shall be determined based on a pro rata distribution of each class, series or unit of securities included in the Participant's Account in the Stock Fund, with each determination made on the basis of the number of such securities or using such other method as the Committee may approve.  Fractional shares or units will not be distributed from the Stock Fund; any distributions from the Stock Fund will be rounded to the nearest whole share or unit.
5.    BOOK ACCOUNTS
5.1.    Deferred Compensation Account.  A deferred compensation Account shall be established for each Eligible Director when such Eligible Director becomes a Participant.  Annual Fees and Equity Awards deferred pursuant to the Plan shall be credited to the Account on the date such Annual Fees or Equity Awards would otherwise have been payable to the Participant.  All deemed interest, dividends, earnings, losses and other relevant amounts applicable to each Account shall be credited or debited to the Account as they are deemed to occur, as provided in Section 5.2.
5.1.1.    Crediting of Deferred Annual Fees.  If Eligible Directors are entitled to designate the form of payment of Annual Fees, the amount of deferred Annual Fees that are designated by the Eligible Director to be paid in the form of equity in the Company shall be credited to the Stock Fund in the Eligible Director’s Account.  Deferred Annual Fees that are payable in the form of cash shall be credited to the Credited Interest Fund as provided in Section 5.2.
5.1.2.    Crediting of Deferred Equity Awards.  Deferred Equity Awards shall be credited to the Stock Fund in the Eligible Director’s Account at the time of vesting, together with any related Dividend Equivalents, as defined in the Incentive Plan.

 7 




5.2.    Crediting/Debiting of Account Balances.  In accordance with, and subject to, the rules and procedures that are established from time to time by the Committee, amounts shall be credited or debited to a Participant’s Account in accordance with the following rules:
5.2.1.    Credited Interest Fund.  A Participant’s Account attributable to Annual Fees payable in cash that are deferred on or after January 1, 2010 shall remain allocated to the Credited Interest Fund.
5.2.2.    Stock Fund.  Deferred Annual Fees payable in the form of equity in the Company and deferred Equity Awards shall remain allocated to the Stock Fund and the Participant shall not be entitled to change the portion of his Account allocated to the Stock Fund; provided, however, that any cash dividends payable with respect to the number and kind of equity allocated to the Stock Fund shall be credited to the Participant's Account in the Credited Interest Fund.
5.2.3.    Crediting or Debiting Method.  Each Participant’s Account allocated to the Credited Interest Fund shall be credited with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate.  Credits and debits under this Section 5.2.3 shall be calculated with respect to cash amounts of Annual Fees deferred by such Participant in accordance with this Plan from the date such Annual Fees would otherwise have been payable to the Participant through the end of the day immediately preceding the date on which such deferred Annual Fees are paid to such Participant (or his or her Beneficiary) in accordance with this Plan.  
5.2.4.    No Actual Investment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, in the event that the Company or the trustee of the Rabbi Trust, if any, in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in any investment, no Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves.  Without limiting the foregoing, a Participant’s Account shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his or her behalf by the Company or the Rabbi Trust, if any; the Participant shall at all times remain an unsecured creditor of the Company.
5.3.    Status of Deferred Amounts.  All Annual Fees and/or Equity Awards deferred under this Plan shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general funds or unissued shares of the Company.
5.4.    Participants’ Status as General Creditors.  An Account shall at all times represent the general obligation of the Company.  Each Participant shall be a general creditor of the Company with respect to this obligation and shall not have a secured or preferred position with respect to his or her Account.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to create an escrow, trust, custodial account or fiduciary relationship of any kind.  Nothing contained herein shall be construed to eliminate any priority or preferred position of a Participant in a bankruptcy matter with respect to claims for compensation.
6.    NO ALIENATION OF BENEFITS
Except as otherwise required by law, the right of any Participant or Beneficiary to any benefit or interest under any of the provisions of the Plan shall not be subject to encumbrance, attachment, execution, garnishment, assignment, pledge, alienation, sale, transfer or anticipation, 

 8 




either by the voluntary or involuntary act of any Participant or Beneficiary or by operation of law, nor shall such payment, right or interest be subject to any other legal or equitable process.
7.    DEATH OF PARTICIPANT
7.1.    Death of Participant.  A Deceased Participant’s Account shall be distributed in a lump sum to the Deceased Participant’s Beneficiary to whom the right to payment under the Plan shall have passed.  For purposes of clarity, if an Inactive Participant who has elected a distribution in the form of annual installments under Section 4.1.1.2 dies prior to receiving his or her entire Account, the remainder of the Deceased Participant’s Account shall be distributed in a lump sum notwithstanding the Deceased Participant’s Election of annual installments.
7.2.    Designation of Beneficiaries.  Each Participant and Beneficiary shall have the right to designate one or more Beneficiaries to receive distributions in the event of the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s death by filing with the Company a Beneficiary designation on the form provided by the Company for such purpose.  The designation of Beneficiary or Beneficiaries may be changed by a Participant or Beneficiary at any time prior to such Participant’s or Beneficiary’s death by the delivery to the Company of a new Beneficiary designation form.
8.    OTHER ACCELERATION EVENTS
8.1.    Other Acceleration Events.  To the extent permitted under Section 409A, notwithstanding the terms of an Election, distribution of all or part of a Participant’s Account may be made:
8.1.1.    To the extent necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order (as deemed in section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code).

8.1.4.    To pay foreign tax obligations arising from participation in the Plan that apply to an amount deferred under the Plan (the “Tax Obligation Amount”) plus the income tax at source on wages imposed under section 3401 of the Code with respect to the Tax Obligation Amount, and to pay the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the pyramiding section 3401 wages and taxes, provided that the total amount distributable under this Section 8.1.4 shall not exceed the sum of the Tax Obligation Amount and the income tax withholding related to such Tax Obligation Amount.
