 Article 1 
  

PURPOSE AND INTENT 
  
 PerkinElmer, Inc. maintains the PerkinElmer, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) to increase the overall effectiveness of
the Company’s executive compensation program to attract, retain and motivate qualified senior executives; to provide retirement benefits more closely related to Total Compensation; and to soften the financial impact of early retirement for
Participants. The Plan is intended to be “a plan which is unfunded and is maintained by an employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the
meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, and shall be interpreted and administered in a manner consistent therewith. 
  
 This amendment and restatement of the Plan is effective January 1, 2001. The rights and benefits, if any, of each Participant who terminates service
before January 1, 2001 shall be determined in accordance with the respective provisions of the Plan in effect on the date such Participant separated from service. The original effective date of the Plan was January 1, 1978.

	 	b.	Service with a company other than the Company may, at the discretion of the Committee, be deemed to be Credited Service. 

  

	 	c.	If a Participant who has completed ten (10) or more Years of Service becomes a Disabled Participant, the period of disability up to age 65 shall be counted as Credited Service
regardless of whether the Participant remains in the employ of the Company. 

  

	 	d.	A Participant shall in no event be deemed to accrue more than one full year of Credited Service with respect to any year. 

  

	 	e.	If the Participant was an Employee of the Company, terminated his Employment and is rehired, the following rules shall apply in determining his years of Credited Service:


  

	 	(i)	in the case of a Participant who had five (5) or more Years of Service, his years of Credited Service accrued during his prior period of Employment shall be reinstated as of the
date of his re-employment; and 

  

	 	(ii)	in the case of a Participant whose Employment terminated before completing five (5) Years of Service, his years of Credited Service accrued during his prior period of Employment
shall be reinstated unless the “Break-in-Service” exceeds the greater of: (a) five (5) years, or (b) the number of prior Years of Service. 

  

	2.9	Disabled Participant means a Participant who incurs a physical or mental condition which, as determined by the Federal Social Security Administration, renders the
Participant eligible to receive disability benefits under Title II of the Federal Social Security Act, as amended from time to time. 

  

	2.10	Eligible Spouse means a person who was legally married to the Participant on the date of retirement or, if not retired, the date of death. 

  

	2.11	Employee means any person employed by the Company or a successor in a merger or other reorganization.

	2.15	Plan Benefit means the annual benefit payable in accordance with the Plan. 

  

	2.16	Social Security Benefit means the estimated annual Primary Old Age Insurance Amount which the Participant would be entitled to receive at retirement under the Federal
Social Security Act; provided, however, that the Social Security Benefit for a Participant who dies or retires prior to age 65 shall be calculated on such date as if: 

  

	 	a.	the Participant will not receive any future wages which would be treated as wages for purposes of the Federal Social Security Act; and 

  

	 	b.	the Participant had elected to begin receiving Social Security as of the earliest age then allowable to the Participant under said Act. 

  

	2.17	Social Security Tax Base means the 35 year average of maximum wages upon which Social Security taxes were based during each of the calendar years ending with the
calendar year in which the Employee reaches his Normal Retirement Date (as defined under the Basic Plan), assuming no change in the Social Security maximum taxable wage after the Employee’s termination of Employment. In order to determine the
Social Security Tax Base for an Employee who works beyond his Normal Retirement Date, it will be assumed that the Employee’s Normal Retirement Date occurs in the year of termination. 

  










	2.18	Surviving Spouse Option means a 50% Joint and Survivor form of payment under which a reduced amount shall be paid to the Participant during his lifetime and the
Eligible Spouse, if surviving at the Participant’s death, shall receive a lifetime benefit equal to 50% of the reduced benefit which had been payable to the Participant. The Surviving Spouse Option is the Actuarial Equivalent of the
Participant’s Plan Benefit had it been paid in the form of a Lifetime Income Option.

	2.20	Years of Service shall be determined in accordance with the following: 

  

	 	a.	A Participant shall accrue a Year of Service for each Year in which he has 1,000 or more Hours of Service with the Company. Any Year in which the Participant has less than 1,000 but
more than 500 Hours of Service shall not constitute a Break-in-Service but will not be considered as a Year of Service. If in any Year, the Participant has less than 500 Hours of Service, he shall incur a Break-In-Service. 


 

	 	b.	A Participant shall be considered as accruing Hours of Service in accordance with his normal work week for each week: 

  

	 	(i)	while on an authorized leave of absence, if at or before the end of such leave, the Participant returns to service, provided however, that a Participant on a leave who fails to
return to service at or before the end of such leave, will be considered to have terminated his Employment as of the last day of service with the Company. If, however, such failure to return was due to death, disability, or retirement on his early
or normal retirement date, the Participant’s date of termination will be the date on which one of the above occurs; 

  

	 	(ii)	during the one (1) year period following the date on which a Participant is laid off due to a reduction in work force, provided the Participant returns to service within the
one-year period following his date of termination. If the Participant does not return to service within said one-year period, whether because he was not recalled or was recalled but did not return to service, the Participant shall be considered to
have terminated his service as of the last day of service. 

  
 If a Participant terminates his Employment and is rehired, the following rules shall apply in determining his Years of Service: 
  


	 	a.	In the case of a Participant who had five (5) or more Years of Service, his Years of Service accrued during his prior period of Employment shall be reinstated as of the date of his
re-employment. 

  

	 	b.	In the case of a Participant whose Employment terminated before completing five (5) Years of Service, his Years of Service accrued during his prior period of Employment shall be
reinstated unless the “Break-in-Service” exceeds five (5) years. 

  
 In no event shall a Participant be deemed to have more than one Year of Service with respect to any Year. 
  









 Article 3 
  

ADMINISTRATION 
  
 The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret the provisions of the Plan and decide all questions
and settle all disputes which may arise in connection with the Plan, all in the sole exercise of its discretion. The Committee may establish operative and administrative rules and procedures in connection therewith, provided that such procedures are
consistent with the requirements of Section 503 of ERISA. All interpretations, decisions and determinations made by the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons concerned. No member of the Committee who is a Participant may
vote or otherwise participate in any decision or act with respect to a matter relating to himself or his beneficiaries. The Committee and the individual members thereof shall be indemnified by the Company against any and all liabilities arising by
reason of any act or failure to act made in good faith pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, including expenses reasonably incurred in the defense of any claim relating thereto. 







 Article 4 
  

PARTICIPATION 
  

	4.1	Participation. Each Participant in the Plan on December 31, 2000, shall continue to be a Participant in the amended and restated Plan on January 1, 2001.


  
 The remaining Participants shall be those
Executive Officers or other Employees who are both selected by the Committee and are “management” or “highly compensated” employees within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA.

to be a management or highly compensated employee. In addition, the Committee may terminate a Participant’s participation in the Plan, but such termination shall not reduce the obligation of the Company to any Participant below the amount to
which he would be entitled under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to such termination of participation if his employment with the Company were then terminated. 








 Article 5 
  

PLAN BENEFITS 
  

	5.1	Amount of Plan Benefit. The amount of Plan Benefit payable upon retirement as a monthly retirement income for life to a Participant who, while in the

	5.2	Pre-Retirement Death Benefit. If a Participant who, while in the employ of the Company, had attained age 55 and completed five (5) Years of Service dies
prior to retirement, the Participant’s Eligible Spouse, if any, shall be entitled to receive an annual Plan Benefit determined as if the Participant had retired and elected a Surviving Spouse Option on the day before the Participant died.

entitled to receive an annual Plan Benefit in the form of a Surviving Spouse Option commencing on the day the Participant would have attained age 55, if still living.

Participant retires, but in no event later than April 1st of the Calendar Year following the Participant attaining
age 701⁄2. 

  

	5.5	Except as provided in Article 8 and in Section 11.1, the Company shall promptly pay all Participants or Eligible Spouses the benefits due them under the Plan without any right to
offset or to delay any benefits pending the outcome of any arbitration, lawsuit or other dispute with any such Participant.

	6.2	Termination of Employment. A Participant who terminates employment with the Company before he satisfies both conditions stated in Section 6.1 shall not
be entitled to any benefits hereunder.

 Article 8 
  

FORFEITURE OF BENEFITS 
  
 To the extent permitted by applicable law and notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, a Participant who acts in a manner prejudicial to the
interests of the Company shall forfeit his rights to benefits under the Plan. A Participant shall be deemed to have acted in a manner prejudicial to the interests of the Company if, at any time within one (1) year after termination of employment,
the Participant engages in any activity in competition with any business activity of the Company, or inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company, including, but not limited to: 
  

	 	(i)	conduct related to the Participant’s employment for which either criminal or civil penalities may be sought against the Participant, 

  

	 	(ii)	violation of Company policies, including, without limitation, the Company’s personnel and insider trading policies, 

  

	 	(iii)	accepting employment that is in competition with or acting against the interests of the Company,

provision shall be fully severable, and the remaining provisions of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the severed provision or by its severance. 







 Article 9 
  

AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION 
  
 The Company intends the Plan to be permanent but reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan upon action of the Board of Directors of PerkinElmer,
Inc. Any amendment approved by the board must be in writing and be executed by the officer authorized to take such action. An amendment shall be effective when approved by the board in its resolution. No amendment or termination shall directly or
indirectly deprive any current or former Participant or beneficiary of all or any portion of any benefit payment which has commenced prior to the effective date of such amendment or termination or which could be payable if the Participant terminated
employment for any reason, including death, immediately prior to the effective date such amendment or termination. 







 Article 10 
  
 CLAIMS PROCEDURES 
  

	10.1	General. Any claim for benefits under the Plan shall be filed by the Participant or beneficiary (claimant) of the Plan on the form prescribed for such purpose with the
Committee, or in lieu thereof, by written communication which is made by the claimant’s authorized representative in a manner reasonably calculated to bring the claim to the attention of the Committee. 

  

	10.2	Denials. If a claim for a Plan benefit is wholly or partially denied, notice of the decision shall be furnished to the claimant by the Committee within a reasonable
period of time after receipt of the claim by the Committee. 

  

	10.3	Notice. Any claimant who is denied a claim for benefits shall be furnished written notice setting forth: 

  

	 	(a)	the specific reason or reasons for the denial; 

  

	 	(b)	specific reference to the pertinent Plan or provision upon which the denial is based; 

  

	 	(c)	a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim; and 

  

	 	(d)	an explanation of the Plan’s claim review procedure. 

  

	10.4	Appeals Procedure. To appeal the denial of a claim, a claimant or his duly authorized representative: 

  

	 	(a)	may request a review by written application to the Company’s board of directors, or its designate, not later than sixty (60) days after receipt by the claimant of written
notification of denial of claim; 

  

	 	(b)	may review pertinent documents; and 

  

	 	(c)	may submit issues and comments in writing. 

  

	10.5	Review. A decision on review of a denied claim shall be made not later than sixty (60) days after receipt of a request for review, unless special circumstances require
an extension of time for processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered within a reasonable period of time, but not later than 120 days after receipt of a request for review. The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include the
specific reason(s) for the decision and the specific reference(s) to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based. 

  

	10.6	Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising under or relating to a claim for benefits under the Plan shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the
rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. The Plan shall not be required to submit any such claim or controversy until the claimant has first exhausted the procedures described in Section 10.5 although the Committee may
voluntarily do so at any point in processing an appeal from a prior claim denial or other disputed benefit determination. 

  
 The Company shall bear all costs of an arbitration, except that the arbitrator shall have the power to apportion among the parties other expenses such as
prehearing discovery, travel costs and attorney’s fees. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on all parties and judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. 







 Article 11 
  
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
  

	11.1	Plan Not Funded. The Plan is intended to be and shall be construed and administered as an employee pension benefit plan under Section 3(2)(A) of ERISA which is
unfunded and maintained by the Company solely to provide deferred compensation to a “select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. The obligation of the
Company to make payments under the Plan constitutes nothing more than an unsecured promise of the Company to make such payments. No Participant, beneficiary or any other person shall have any interest in any particular assets of the Company by
reason of the right to receive a benefit under the Plan and any such Participant, beneficiary or other person shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to any rights under the Plan. PerkinElmer, Inc., in
its sole discretion, may create one or more trusts to hold assets of the Plan and to provide for the payment of benefits. PerkinElmer, Inc. shall be the owner of each trust and the trust corpus shall be subject to the claims of general creditors in
the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of PerkinElmer, Inc. The trusts shall contain such other terms and conditions as PerkinElmer, Inc. may deem necessary or advisable to ensure that benefits are not includable, by reason of the trusts, in the
income of trust beneficiaries prior to actual distribution and that the existence of the trusts does not cause the Plan to be considered “funded” for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.


  

	11.2	No Guaranty of Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guaranty by the Company or any other entity or person that the assets of the Company will be
sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder. 

  

	11.3	No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant or beneficiary shall have any right to a benefit under the Plan except in accordance with terms of the Plan.
Establishment of the Plan shall not be construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company. 

  

	11.4	Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in, or right to receive a benefit under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive a benefit be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts or other obligations or
claims against, such person or entity, including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance and claims in bankruptcy proceedings. 

  

	11.5	Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and administered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 

  

	11.6	Incapacity of Recipient. If any person entitled to a benefit payment under the Plan is deemed by the Company to be incapable of personally receiving and giving a valid
receipt for such payment, then, unless and until claim therefor shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian or other legal representative of such person, the Company may provide for such payment or any part thereof to be made to any other
person or institution than contributing toward or providing for the care and maintenance of such person. Any such payment shall be a payment for the account of such person and a complete discharge of any liability of the Company and the Plan
thereof. 

  

	11.7	Corporate Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Company. 








 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused the Plan to be executed by its duly authorized representative this 13th day of
December, 2000.

generally in the election of directors, respectively, of the surviving, resulting or acquiring corporation in such Business Combination (which shall include, without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or
substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more other entities) (such resulting or acquiring corporation is referred to herein as the “Acquiring Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as
their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, respectively; and (B) no Person beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the then
outstanding shares of common stock of the Acquiring Corporation, or of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (except to the extent that such ownership

calculated as follows:” 
  
 6. The last
