 OSI Systems, Inc. Nonqualified Defined Benefit Plan 
 ARTICLE I 
 Establishment and Purpose 
 OSI Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby adopts the OSI Systems, Inc. Nonqualified Defined Benefit Plan (the “Plan”), effective October 10, 2008.

 The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain key employees by providing Participants with a nonqualified defined benefit plan in addition to the
Company’s tax-qualified retirement plans. 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 a 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 Employer, as applicable. Each Participating Employer shall be solely responsible for payment of the benefits of its employees and their beneficiaries. The Plan is
unfunded for Federal tax purposes and is intended to be an unfunded arrangement for 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. 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 Employer and shall remain subject to the claims of the Company’s or
the Adopting Employer’s creditors until such amounts are distributed to the Participants. 
 ARTICLE II 
 Definitions 
  

	2.1	Accrued Benefit. Accrued Benefit means the portion of the Normal Retirement Benefit earned by the Participant, determined under the accrual rate specified in the
Participant’s award. The Committee may specify different accrual rates for individual Participants and may accelerate accruals in its sole discretion. 

  

	2.2	Adopting Employer. Adopting Employer means an Affiliate who, with the consent of the Company, has adopted the Plan for the benefit of its eligible employees.


  

	2.3	Affiliate. Affiliate means a corporation, trade or business that, together with the Company, is treated as a single employer under Code Section 414(b) or (c).


  

	2.4	Average Annual Compensation. Average Annual Compensation means a Participant’s highest average salary earned over a five consecutive calendar year period occurring
within the ten calendar years preceding the earlier of (i) the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date or (ii) the date the Participant is no longer an Eligible Employee (including Separation from Service). For purposes of determining
consecutive calendar years, if a Participant loses his or her status as an Eligible Employee and later regains such status prior to his or her Normal Retirement Date, the calendar years during which he or she was ineligible will be disregarded if
such Participant remains continuously employed as an Employee during such years.

	2.5	Beneficiary. Beneficiary means a natural person, estate, or trust designated by a Participant to receive payments to which a Beneficiary is entitled in accordance with
provisions of the Plan. The Participant’s spouse, if living, otherwise the Participant’s estate, shall be the Beneficiary if: (i) the Participant has failed to properly designate a Beneficiary; or (ii) all designated
Beneficiaries have predeceased the Participant. 

 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)(1)(B). 
  

	2.6	Business Day. Business Day means each day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for business. 

  

	2.7	Change in Control. Change in Control means, with respect to a Participating Employer that is organized as a corporation, any of the following events: (i) a change in the
ownership of the Participating Employer; (ii) a change in the effective control of the Participating Employer; or (iii) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Participating Employer.


 For purposes of this Section, a change in the ownership of the Participating Employer occurs on the date on which any one
person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock of the Participating Employer that, together with stock held by such person or group constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of the
stock of the Participating Employer. A change in the effective control of the Participating Employer occurs on the date on which either: (i) a person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock of the Participating
Employer possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Participating Employer, taking into account all such stock acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition; or (ii) a majority
of the members of the Participating Employer’s Board of Directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of such Board of Directors prior to the date of the
appointment or election, but only if no other corporation is a majority shareholder of the Participating Employer . A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of assets occurs on the date on which any one person, or more than one person
acting as a group, other than a person or group of persons that is related to the Participating Employer, acquires assets from the Participating Employer that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40% of the total gross fair
market value of all of the assets of the Participating Employer immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions, taking into account all such assets acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition.

performs services for the Participating Employer that has experienced the Change in Control, or the Participant’s relationship to the affected Participating Employer otherwise satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(ii). 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to a Participating Employer that is a
partnership, Change in Control means only a change in the ownership of the partnership or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the partnership, and the provisions set forth above respecting such changes relative to a
corporation shall be applied by analogy. 
 The determination as to the occurrence of a Change in Control shall be based on objective facts

under such section. 

  

	2.23	Plan Year. Plan Year means January 1 through December 31. The period from the Effective Date through December 31, 2008 will constitute a “short” Plan
Year. 

  

	2.24	Retirement Benefit. Retirement Benefit means the benefit payable to a Participant under the Plan following the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date.


  

	2.25	Separation from Service. An Employee incurs a Separation from Service upon termination of employment with the Employer. Whether a Separation from Service has occurred shall
be determined by the Committee in accordance with Code Section 409A. 

 Except in the case of an Employee on a bona fide
leave of absence as provided below, an Employee is deemed to have incurred a Separation from Service if the Employer and the Employee reasonably anticipated that the level of services to be performed by the Employee after a date certain would be
reduced to 20% or less of the average services rendered by the Employee during the immediately preceding 36-month period (or the total period of employment, if less than 36 months), disregarding periods during which the Employee was on a bona fide
leave of absence. 
 An Employee who is absent from work due to military leave, sick
leave, or other bona fide leave of absence shall incur a Separation from Service on the first date immediately following the later of: (i) the six month anniversary of the commencement of the leave; or (ii) the expiration of the
Employee’s right, if any, to reemployment under statute or contract. Notwithstanding the preceding, however, an Employee who is absent from work due to a physical or mental impairment that is expected to result in death or last for a continuous
period of at least six months and that prevents the Employee from performing the duties of his position of employment or a similar position shall incur a Separation from Service on the first date immediately following the 29th month anniversary of the commencement of the leave.

 OSI Systems, Inc. Nonqualified Defined Benefit Plan 
  

 For purposes of determining whether a Separation from Service has occurred, the Employer means the
Employer as defined in Section 2.17 of the Plan, except that for purposes of determining whether another organization is an Affiliate of the Company, common ownership of at least 50% shall be determinative. 
 The Committee specifically reserves the right to determine whether a sale or other disposition of substantial assets to an unrelated party constitutes a
Separation from Service with respect to a Participant providing services to the seller immediately prior to the transaction and providing services to the buyer after the transaction. Such determination shall be made in accordance with the
requirements of Code Section 409A.

 ARTICLE IV 
 Vesting

  

	4.1	Vesting. Accrued Benefits vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Committee’s award of a Retirement Benefit to the Participant. All awards shall
become 100% vested upon the occurrence of the earliest of: (i) the death of the Participant while actively employed; (ii) the disability of the Participant; (iii) the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date; or (iv) a Change in
Control. The Participating Employer may, at any time, in its sole discretion, increase a Participant’s vested interest. The portion of a Participant’s Accrued Benefit that remains unvested upon his or her termination of employment after
the application of the terms of this Section 4.1 shall be forfeited.

 Page 5 of 16 









 OSI Systems, Inc. Nonqualified Defined Benefit Plan 
  


	 	(b)	Death Benefit. In the event of the Participant’s death, his or her designated Beneficiary(ies) shall be entitled to a Death Benefit. If the Participant was receiving his
Retirement Benefit at the time of his or her death, the Death Benefit shall be any remaining payments under the specified period certain for the normal form of benefit described in Section 5.2(a). If the Participant’s death occurs prior to
his or her Normal Retirement Date, his or Beneficiary will receive the Participant’s Retirement Benefit, payable in the normal form under Section 5.2(a), commencing on the first day of the month following the month the Participant would
have attained his or her Normal Retirement Date. 

  

	5.2	Form of Payment. 

  

	 	(a)	Retirement Benefit. Unless an optional annuity payment is selected under 5.2(b), a Participant who is entitled to receive a Retirement Benefit shall receive payment in the
form of a ten year period certain (the “normal form of payment”). 

  

	 	(b)	Death Benefit. A designated Beneficiary who is entitled to receive a Death Benefit shall receive any remaining payments under the period certain for the normal form of
benefit. 

  

	 	(c)	Change in Control. A Participant will receive the actuarial equivalent of his or her Retirement Benefit in a single lump sum payment equal to the unpaid balance of all of his
or her Accrued Benefit if Separation from Service occurs within 24 months following a Change in Control. 

 A Participant or
Beneficiary receiving payments when a Change in Control occurs, will receive the actuarial equivalent of the remaining payments in a single lump sum within 90 days following the Change in Control. 
  

	5.3	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. Section 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. Section 1.409A-2(b)(7). 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 Accrued Benefit be
paid to an “alternate payee,” any amounts to be paid to the alternate payee(s) shall be paid in a single lump sum.

 ARTICLE VI 
 Administration 
  

	6.1	Plan Administration. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee which shall have discretionary authority to make, amend, interpret and enforce all appropriate rules and
regulations for the administration of this Plan and to utilize its discretion to decide or resolve any and all questions, including but not limited to eligibility for benefits and interpretations of this Plan and its terms, as may arise in
connection with the Plan. Claims for benefits shall be filed with the Committee and resolved in accordance with the claims procedures in Article IX. 

  

	6.2	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 (or if such person is unable or unwilling to act, the next highest ranking officer) prior to the Change in Control shall have the authority (but shall not be obligated) to
appoint an independent third party to act as the Committee. 

 Upon such
Change in Control, the Company may not remove the Committee, unless  2/3rds of the members of the Board of Directors of the
Company and a majority of Participants and Beneficiaries with Accrued Benefits consent to the removal and replacement of the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Committee nor the officer described above shall have authority to
direct investment of trust assets under any rabbi trust described in Section 8.2. 
 The Participating Employer shall, with
respect to the Committee identified under this Section: (i) pay all reasonable expenses and fees of the Committee; (ii) indemnify the Committee (including individuals serving as Committee members) against any costs, expenses and
liabilities including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses arising in connection with the performance of the Committee’s duties hereunder, except with respect to matters resulting from the Committee’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct; and (iii) supply full and timely information to the Committee on all matters related to the Plan, any rabbi trust, Participants, Beneficiaries and Accrued Benefits as the Committee may reasonably require. 
  

	6.3	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
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. 

  

	6.4	 Indemnification. The Participating Employers shall indemnify and hold harmless each employee, officer, director, 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 Committee and its agents, against all claims, liabilities, fines and penalties, and all
expenses reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him or it (including but not limited to reasonable attorney

fees) which arise as a result of his 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 by liability insurance purchased or paid for by the Participating Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participating Employer shall not
indemnify any person or organization if his or its actions or failure to act are due to gross negligence or willful misconduct or for any such amount incurred through any settlement or compromise of any action unless the Participating Employer
consents in writing to such settlement or compromise. 


  

	6.5	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. 

  

	6.6	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 and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan. 

 ARTICLE VII 
 Amendment and Termination 
  

	7.1	Amendment and Termination. The Company may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan or may terminate the Plan as provided in this Article VII. Each Participating
Employer may also terminate its participation in the Plan. 

  

	7.2	Amendments. The Company, by action taken by its Board of Directors, may amend the Plan at any time and for any reason, provided that any such amendment shall not reduce the
vested Accrued Benefits of any Participant accrued as of the date of any such amendment or restatement (as if the Participant had incurred a voluntary Separation from Service on such date) or reduce any rights of a Participant under the Plan or
other Plan features with respect to vested Accrued Benefits prior to the date of any such amendment or restatement without the consent of the Participant. The Board of Directors of the Company may delegate to the Committee the authority to amend the
Plan without the consent of the Board of Directors for the purpose of: (i) conforming the Plan to the requirements of law; (ii) facilitating the administration of the Plan; (iii) clarifying provisions based on the Committee’s
interpretation of the document; and (iv) making such other amendments as the Board of Directors may authorize. 

  

	7.3	Termination. The Company, by action taken by its Board of Directors, may terminate the Plan and pay Participants and Beneficiaries their vested Accrued Benefits in a single
lump sum at any time, to the extent and in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix). If a Participating Employer terminates its participation in the Plan, the benefits of affected Employees shall be paid at the time provided in
Article V.

	7.4	Benefits Taxable Under Code Section 409A. The Plan is intended to constitute a plan of deferred compensation that meets the requirements for deferral of income taxation
under Code Section 409A. The Committee, pursuant to its authority to interpret the Plan, may sever from the Plan or any award any provision or exercise of a right that otherwise would result in a violation of Code Section 409A.


 ARTICLE VIII 
 Informal
Funding 
  

	8.1	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 VIII. No Participant, spouse or Beneficiary shall have any right, title or interest whatever in 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 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 Employer. 

  

	8.2	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 Employer 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 IX 
 Claims 
  

	9.1	Filing a Claim. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Plan shall be filed in writing with the Committee which shall make all determinations concerning
such claim. Any claim filed with the Committee and any decision by the Committee denying such claim shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the Participant or Beneficiary filing the claim (the “Claimant”). 


 

	 	(a)	In General. Notice of a denial of benefits (other than Disability benefits) will be provided within 90 days of the Committee’s receipt of the Claimant’s claim for
benefits. If the Committee determines that it needs additional time to review the claim, the Committee will provide the Claimant with a notice of the extension before the end of the initial 90-day period. The extension will not be more than 90 days
from the end of the initial 90-day period and the notice of extension will explain the special circumstances that require the extension and the date by which the Committee expects to make a decision.

	 	(b)	Contents of Notice. If a claim for benefits is completely or partially denied, notice of such denial shall be in writing and shall set forth the reasons for denial in plain
language. The notice shall: (i) cite the pertinent provisions of the Plan document; and (ii) explain, where appropriate, how the Claimant can perfect the claim, including a description of any additional material or information necessary to
complete the claim and why such material or information is necessary. The claim denial also shall include an explanation of the claims review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s
right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse decision on review. 

  

	9.2	Appeal of Denied Claims. A Claimant whose claim has been completely or partially denied shall be entitled to appeal the claim denial by filing a written appeal with a
committee designated to hear such appeals (the “Appeals Committee”). A Claimant who timely requests a review of the denied claim (or his or her authorized representative) may review, upon request and free of charge, copies of all
documents, records and other information relevant to the denial and may submit written comments, documents, records and other information relevant to the claim to the Appeals Committee. All written comments, documents, records, and other information
shall be considered “relevant” if the information: (i) was relied upon in making a benefits determination; (ii) was submitted, considered or generated in the course of making a benefits decision regardless of whether it was
relied upon to make the decision; or (iii) demonstrates compliance with administrative processes and safeguards established for making benefit decisions. The Appeals Committee may, in its sole discretion and if it deems appropriate or
necessary, decide to hold a hearing with respect to the claim appeal. 

  

	 	(a)	In General. Appeal of a denied benefits claim must be filed in writing with the Appeals Committee no later than 60 days after receipt of the written notification of such
claim denial. The Appeals Committee shall make its decision regarding the merits of the denied claim within 60 days following receipt of the appeal (or within 120 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 Appeals Committee expects to render the determination on review. The review will take into account comments, documents, records
and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

	 	(b)	Contents of Notice. If a benefits claim is completely or partially denied on review, notice of such denial shall be in writing and shall set forth the reasons for denial in
plain language. 

 The decision on review shall set forth: (i) the specific reason or reasons for the denial;
(ii) specific references 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,
or other information relevant (as defined above) to the Claimant’s claim; and (iv) a statement describing any voluntary appeal procedures offered by the plan and a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action under
Section 502(a) of ERISA. 
  

	 9.3
	 Claims Appeals Upon Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control, the Appeals Committee, as constituted
immediately prior to such Change in Control, shall continue to act as the Appeals Committee. Upon such Change in Control, the Company may not remove any member of the Appeals Committee, but may replace resigning members if  2/3rds of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company and a majority of Participants and Beneficiaries with Accrued Benefits
consent to the replacement. 


 The Appeals Committee shall have the exclusive authority at the appeals stage to
interpret the terms of the Plan and resolve appeals under the Claims Procedure. 
 Each Participating Employer shall, with respect to the
Committee identified under this Section: (i) pay its proportionate share of all reasonable expenses and fees of the Appeals Committee; (ii) indemnify the Appeals Committee (including individual committee members) against any costs,
expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses arising in connection with the performance of the Appeals Committee hereunder, except with respect to matters resulting from the Appeals Committee’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct; and (iii) supply full and timely information to the Appeals Committee on all matters related to the Plan, any rabbi trust, Participants, Beneficiaries and Accrued Benefits as the Appeals Committee may
reasonably require. 
  

	9.4	Legal Action. A Claimant may not bring any legal action, including commencement of any arbitration, relating to a claim for benefits under the Plan unless and until the
Claimant has followed the claims procedures under the Plan and exhausted his or her administrative remedies under such claims procedures. 

 If a Participant or Beneficiary prevails in a legal proceeding brought under the Plan to enforce the rights of such Participant or any other similarly situated Participant or Beneficiary, in whole or in part, the
Participating Employer shall reimburse such Participant or Beneficiary for all legal costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees and such other liabilities incurred as a result of such proceedings. If the legal proceeding is brought in connection with a
Change in Control, or a “change in control” as defined in a rabbi trust described in Section 8.2, the Participant or Beneficiary may file a claim directly with the trustee for reimbursement of 

  

 Page 11 of 16 









 OSI Systems, Inc. Nonqualified Defined Benefit Plan 
  

 
such costs, expenses and fees. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the amount of the claim shall be treated as if it were an addition to the
Participant’s or Beneficiary’s Accrued Benefit. 
  

	9.5	Discretion of Appeals Committee. All interpretations, determinations and decisions of the Appeals Committee with respect to any claim shall be made in its sole discretion,
and shall be final and conclusive. 

  

	9.6	Arbitration. 

  

	 	(a)	Prior to Change in Control. If, prior to a Change in Control, any claim or controversy between a Participating Employer and a Participant or Beneficiary is not resolved
through the claims procedure set forth in this Article IX, such claim shall be submitted to and resolved exclusively by expedited binding arbitration by a single arbitrator. Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:


 The complaining party shall promptly send written notice to the other party identifying the matter in dispute and the
proposed remedy. Following the giving of such notice, the parties shall meet and attempt in good faith to resolve the matter. In the event the parties are unable to resolve the matter within 21 days, the parties shall meet and attempt in good faith
to select a single arbitrator acceptable to both parties. If a single arbitrator is not selected by mutual consent within ten Business Days following the giving of the written notice of dispute, an arbitrator shall be selected from a list of nine
persons each of whom shall be an attorney who is either engaged in the active practice of law or recognized arbitrator and who, in either event, is experienced in serving as an arbitrator in disputes between employers and employees, which list shall
be provided by the main office of either JAMS, the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. If, within three Business Days of the parties’ receipt of such list, the parties are unable
to agree on an arbitrator from the list, then the parties shall each strike names alternatively from the list, with the first to strike being determined by the flip of a coin. After each party has had four strikes, the remaining name on the list
shall be the arbitrator. If such person is unable to serve for any reason, the parties shall repeat this process until an arbitrator is selected. 
 Unless the parties agree otherwise, within 60 days of the selection of the arbitrator, a hearing shall be conducted before such arbitrator at a time and a place agreed upon by the parties. In the event the parties are unable to agree upon
the time or place of the arbitration, the time and place shall be designated by the arbitrator after consultation with the parties. Within 30 days of the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, the arbitrator shall issue an award, accompanied by a
written decision explaining the basis for the arbitrator’s award.

 In any arbitration hereunder, the Participating Employer shall pay all administrative fees of the
arbitration and all fees of the arbitrator, except that the Participant or Beneficiary may, if he/she/it wishes, pay up to one-half of those amounts. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses, unless the arbitrator
orders otherwise. The prevailing party in such arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator, and in any enforcement or other court proceedings, shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to reimbursement from the other party for all of the
prevailing party’s costs (including but not limited to the arbitrator’s compensation), expenses, and attorneys’ fees. The arbitrator shall have no authority to add to or to modify this Plan, shall apply all applicable law, and shall
have no lesser and no greater remedial authority than would a court of law resolving the same claim or controversy. The arbitrator shall have no authority to add to or to modify this Plan, shall apply all applicable law, and shall have no lesser and
no greater remedial authority than would a court of law resolving the same claim or controversy. The arbitrator shall, upon an appropriate motion, dismiss any claim without an evidentiary hearing if the party bringing the motion establishes that it
would be entitled to summary judgment if the matter had been pursued in court litigation. 
 The parties shall be entitled to discovery as
follows: Each party may take no more than three depositions. The Participating Employer may depose the Participant or Beneficiary plus two other witnesses, and the Participant or Beneficiary may depose the Participating Employer, pursuant to Rule
30(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, plus two other witnesses. Each party may make such reasonable document discovery requests as are allowed in the discretion of the arbitrator. 
 The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, binding, and non-appealable, and may be enforced as a final judgment in any court of competent
jurisdiction. 
 This arbitration provision of the Plan shall extend to claims against any parent, subsidiary, or affiliate of each party,
and, when acting within such capacity, any officer, director, shareholder, Participant, Beneficiary, or agent of any party, or of any of the above, and shall apply as well to claims arising out of state and federal statutes and local ordinances as
well as to claims arising under the common law or under this Plan. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and unless otherwise agreed between the
parties, either party may apply to a court for provisional relief, including a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction, on the ground that the arbitration award to which the applicant may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without
provisional relief. 
 Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act: provided, however, that,
in the event of any inconsistency between the rules and procedures of the Act and the terms of this Plan, the terms of this Plan shall prevail.

 If any of the provisions of this Section 9.6(a) are determined to be unlawful or otherwise
unenforceable, in the whole part, such determination shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this section and this section shall be reformed to the extent necessary to carry out its provisions to the greatest extent possible and to insure
that the resolution of all conflicts between the parties, including those arising out of statutory claims, shall be resolved by neutral, binding arbitration. If a court should find that the provisions of this Section 9.6(a) are not absolutely
binding, then the parties intend any arbitration decision and award to be fully admissible in evidence in any subsequent action, given great weight by any finder of fact and treated as determinative to the maximum extent permitted by law.

 The parties do not agree to arbitrate any putative class action or any other representative action. The parties agree to arbitrate only the
claims(s) of a single Participant or Beneficiary. 
  

	 	(b)	Upon Change in Control. If, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, any dispute, controversy or claim arises between a Participant or Beneficiary and the Participating
Employer out of or relating to or concerning the provisions of the Plan, such dispute, controversy or claim shall be finally settled by a court of competent jurisdiction which, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, shall apply a de novo
standard of review to any determination made by the Company or its Board of Directors, a Participating Employer, the Committee, or the Appeals Committee. 

 ARTICLE X 
 General Provisions 
  

	10.1	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)(1)(B)). 

 The Company may assign any or all of its liabilities under this Plan in connection with any
restructuring, recapitalization, sale of assets or other similar transaction affecting a Participating Employer without the consent of the Participants. 
  

	10.2	 No Legal or Equitable Rights or Interest. No Participant or other person 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 the Participating Employer. The right and power of a Participating Employer to dismiss or discharge an Employee is expressly reserved. The
Participating Employers make no representations or warranties as to the tax consequences to a Participant or a Participant’s beneficiaries resulting from a deferral of income pursuant to the Plan. 



	

  

	10.3	No Employment Contract. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to constitute a contract of employment between an Employee and a Participating Employer.


  

	10.4	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

	10.5	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. 

  

	10.6	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. 

  

	10.7	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 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. 

  

	10.8	 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: (i) to the legal guardian, or if none, to a parent of a minor payee with whom the payee maintains his or her residence, or (ii) 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 Company, and the Plan from further liability on account thereof.
