ARTICLE ONE 
 Scope of
Plan and Definitions 
  

	1.1	 Purpose and Scope of Plan - The purpose of the Plan (this and other capitalized terms having the meanings set forth below) is to provide
benefits to Eligible Employees who participate in the Thrift Plan in excess of those permitted under the Thrift Plan because of the limitations set forth in Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 of the Code. To the extent that benefits are provided under
the Plan, solely because of the limitations set forth in Section 415 of the Code, the Company intends to maintain the Plan as an “excess benefit plan” as that term is defined in Section 3(36) of ERISA. The rights of each
Participant and his Beneficiaries to benefits under the Plan shall be governed by the Plan as set forth herein and as it may hereafter be amended from time to time. This Plan is effective January 1, 2009, unless expressly provided otherwise
herein. 


  

	1.2	 Applicability - The Supplemental Thrift Plan was bifurcated into two components, effective January 1, 2009. As reflected in the terms of
this Plan, one such component is applicable solely to those amounts that were not, as of December 31, 2004, both credited to a Participant’s Account and fully vested or as to which the Participant had a vested right in accordance with the
terms of the Supplemental Thrift Plan as in effect on December 31, 2004 (including related investment gains and losses occurring thereafter). With respect to any other amounts credited to a Participant’s account under the Supplemental
Thrift Plan, the rights of the Participant and his Beneficiaries shall be governed by the component of the Supplemental Thrift Plan known as the “Supplemental Thrift Plan (409A Grandfathered Component) of Union Pacific Corporation, as amended
and restated effective January 1, 2009.” Prior to January 1, 2009, with respect to all amounts credited under the Supplemental Thrift Plan that were subject to section 409A of the Code, the Supplemental Thrift Plan was administered in
good faith compliance with section 409A of the Code. 


  

	1.3	 Definitions - As used in the Plan, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below, unless a different meaning is plainly required
by the context: 


  

	 	(a)	 “Account” shall mean the entries maintained on the books of the Company which represent a Participant’s interest under the Plan. The
term “Account” shall refer, as the context indicates, to either or both of the following: 


  

	 	(1)	 “A Account” shall mean the Account which shows amounts credited to a Participant pursuant to Section 2.1, valued in accordance with
Section 2.4 and adjusted for payments made pursuant to Article Four. 



  
 1 









	 	(2)	 “B Account” shall mean the Account which shows amounts credited to a participant pursuant to Section 2.2, valued in accordance with
Section 2.4 and adjusted for payments made pursuant to Article Four. 


  

	    	 Under no circumstances shall a Participant’s Account be deemed to include amounts (including investment gains and losses thereon) which under the terms
of the Supplemental Thrift Plan were credited or as to which the Participant had a vested right as of December 31, 2004 and were fully vested as of that date. 



 

	 	(b)	 “Beneficiary” shall mean the person designated by a Participant to receive his interest under the Thrift Plan in the event of his death,
unless the Participant designates a different person to be his Beneficiary hereunder pursuant to procedures adopted by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration. If a Participant has made no such designation under the Thrift Plan, the Participant
shall designate the person to be his Beneficiary hereunder pursuant to procedures adopted by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration. Absent such designation, the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be his estate. 



 

	 	(c)	 “Compensation” shall mean the fixed and basic salary or wage paid by the Company or any Affiliated Company to an Employee during a Plan Year,
exclusive of (1) overtime, (2) bonuses, (3) fees, (4) retainers, (5) incentive payments, lump-sum merit awards or any other form of extra remuneration, (6) cash payments received under the Long-Term Disability Plan of
Union Pacific, and (7) any amounts that the Employee receives with respect to periods when he is not an Eligible Employee. Notwithstanding the above, Compensation shall be determined prior to giving effect to any salary reduction election made
pursuant to the Thrift Plan or pursuant to the Union Pacific Flexible Benefits Program and prior to giving effect to any Compensation reduction agreement hereunder. Compensation shall be determined prior to giving effect to any salary reduction
election made pursuant to the Union Pacific Transportation Spending Account Program. 


  

	 	(d)	 “Eligible Employee” shall mean an Eligible Employee as defined in the Thrift Plan (1) for whom the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration
determines that the contributions that would be made and allocated under the Thrift Plan for a month if the limitations set forth in Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 of the Code did not apply might exceed his After-Tax Employee Contribution,
Elective Contribution and Matching Contribution made and allocated for the month, and (2) whom the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration has designated as eligible to participate in this Plan. 



 

	 	(e)	 “Participant” shall mean (1) any Eligible Employee for whom credits have been or are being made hereunder, or (2) any former
Eligible Employee 



  
 2 









	 	 
for whom credits have been made hereunder and who either (A) continues to be employed by the Company or an Affiliated Company, or (B) has an interest in all or a portion of his Account
which has not been distributed pursuant to Article Four. 


  

	 	(f)	 “Plan” shall mean the Union Pacific Corporation Supplemental Thrift Plan (409A Non-Grandfathered Component), effective as of January 1,
2009 as set forth herein, and as it may hereafter be amended from time to time.

thereafter be amended from time to time. The Supplemental Thrift Plan is comprised of the following components, each of which is set forth in a separate document: (1) The Union Pacific Corporation Supplemental Thrift Plan (409A Grandfathered
Component), and (2) The Union Pacific Corporation Supplemental Thrift Plan (409A Non-Grandfathered Component). 


  

	 	(i)	 “Thrift Plan” shall mean the Union Pacific Corporation Thrift Plan, as in effect as of January 1, 1989, and as it may thereafter be
amended from time to time. 


  

	1.4	 Terms Defined in the Thrift Plan - For all purposes of the Plan, the following terms shall have the meanings specified in the Thrift Plan,
unless a different meaning is plainly required by the context: “Affiliated Company”; “After-Tax Employee Contribution”; “Elective Contribution”; “Board of Directors”; “Code”; “Company”;
“Employee”; “ERISA”; “Matching Contribution”; “Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration”; and “Plan Year.” 



 

	1.5	 Other Definitional Provisions - The terms defined in Sections 1.3 and 1.4 of the Plan shall be equally applicable to both the singular and
plural forms of the terms defined. The masculine pronoun, whenever used, shall include the feminine and vice versa. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used
in the Plan shall refer to the Plan as a whole and not to any particular provision of the Plan, unless otherwise specified. 


  

 
 ARTICLE TWO 

Deferrals and Credits 
  

	2.1	 Deferrals and Credits 



  
 3 









	 	(a)	 An Eligible Employee may, with respect to any Plan Year, elect to make deferrals to be credited under the Plan by filing a Compensation reduction
agreement with the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration on such form and at such time in advance as may be prescribed by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration for such purpose. Such agreement shall authorize the Company or the Affiliated Company by
which the Eligible Employee is employed to reduce the Eligible Employee’s Compensation by the percentage elected by the Eligible Employee, with such percentage being not less than the minimum deferral percentage permitted under the Thrift Plan
and not more than the maximum deferral percentage permitted under the Thrift Plan, commencing as of the date determined pursuant to subparagraph (c)(1) below. The Company shall credit such amount to the Eligible Employee’s A Account under the
Plan. 


  

	 	(b)	 Any election made by an Eligible Employee to defer Compensation made pursuant to paragraph (a) above must be made prior to the beginning of the
calendar year in which the Eligible Employee performs the services for which the Compensation is payable. An Eligible Employee’s election shall remain in effect until the earlier of: 1) when his status as an Eligible Employee ends; or
2) December 31 of the Plan Year to which the election pertains. 


  

	 	(c)	 At an Eligible Employee’s election, his deferrals under paragraph (a) above shall: 



 

	 	(1)	 commence at the earlier of when (A) the Eligible Employee’s Compensation for the Plan Year to which such election applies equals the
limitation set forth in Section 401(a)(17) of the Code or (B) the percentage of Compensation the Eligible Employee elected to defer under the Thrift Plan has resulted in annual additions on behalf of the Eligible Employee (including such
additions attributable to Matching Contributions under the Thrift Plan as in effect on the first day of such Plan Year) equal to the limit set forth in Section 415 of the Code; and 



 

	 	(2)	 equal the percentage of the Eligible Employee’s Compensation for the period following the commencement date of such deferral determined pursuant
to subparagraph (c)(1) above as elected by the Eligible Employee pursuant to paragraph (a) above. 


  

	2.2	 Matching Credits - The Company shall credit an Eligible Employee’s B Account with an amount equal to the Matching Contribution that would
have been allocated to the Eligible Employee under the Thrift Plan with respect to the deferral being credited to the Eligible Employee’s A Account pursuant to Section 2.1. 



  
 4 









	2.3	 Timing of Credits - Credits for a month under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall be made as of the same date that such amounts would have been
allocated to the Participant’s accounts under the Thrift Plan had such amounts been included in the Participant’s After-Tax Employee Contributions, Elective Contributions and Matching Contributions for the month.



  

	2.4	 Valuation of Accounts - Pending distribution pursuant to Article Four, the value of amounts credited to a Participant’s A and B Accounts as
of any subsequent date shall be determined by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration as follows: 


  

	 	(a)	 except as provided in (b) and (c) below, as if such amounts had instead been actually contributed to the Thrift Plan and been invested in
accordance with the investment provisions set forth in Article VI (effective August 8, 2007, without regard to Section 6.05A) thereof, provided that investment elections for purposes of the Plan may differ from those made by such
Participant under the Thrift Plan; or 


  

	 	(b)	 except as provided in (c) below, after a Participant’s accounts under the Thrift Plan are transferred to another defined contribution plan
maintained within the controlled group of corporations of which the Company is the common parent, as if such Accounts had been actual investments transferred to such transferee plan and been invested in accordance with the investment provisions set
forth in such transferee plan (effective August 8, 2007, without regard to a provision, if any, in such transferee plan permitting participants in such transferee plan to participate in the Vanguard Advisers Managed Account Program), provided
that investment elections for purposes of the Plan may differ from those made by such Participant under such transferee plan; or 


  

	 	(c)	 effective May 1, 1991 for a Participant who is subject to the restrictions under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as if
such amounts had instead been actually contributed to the Thrift Plan and been invested in accordance with the investment provisions set forth in Article VI (effective August 8, 2007, without regard to Section 6.05A) thereof except
that the Participant must make separate investment elections for purposes of this Plan so that no amount will be treated as if it were actually invested in the Company common stock fund and may make other investment elections for purposes of the
Plan that differ from those made under the Thrift Plan.

 ARTICLE FOUR 
 Payments 

 

	4.1	 Payments on Separation from Service - 


  

	 	(a)	 A Participant who fails to make a timely election described in subparagraph (b) shall be deemed to have elected to receive the value of his
Account at the time of his Separation from Service in a single lump-sum payment in cash. Such payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the completion of the first valuation of a Participant’s Account pursuant to
Section 2.4 which coincides with or next follows the Participant’s Separation from Service, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year in which the Participant’s Separation from Services occurs or, if later, ninety
(90) days after such Separation from Service. 


  

	 	  (b)	 (1)   A Participant who has an Account in the Plan as of any time during the 2008 calendar year may elect in writing, according to such rules
and using such forms as may be prescribed by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration, to have his Account paid to him in one of the forms specified in paragraph (c) below, provided such Participant’s Separation from Service occurs after
December 31, 2008. Such election must be made no later than December 31, 2008 and shall apply to the Participant’s entire Account payable at the Participant’s Separation from Service after December 31, 2008, subject to
paragraph (d) below. 


  

	 	    	 (2)   A Participant who is not eligible to make an election under subparagraph (b)(1) above, may elect in writing, according to such rules
and using such forms as may be prescribed by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration to have his Account paid to him in one of the forms specified in paragraph (c) below. Such election must be made no later than the December 31 immediately
preceding the calendar year in which 



  
 6 









	 	 
his initial deferral election under Section 2.1 becomes effective and shall apply to the Participant’s entire Account payable at the Participant’s Separation from Service, subject
to paragraph (d) below. 


  

	 	(c)	 A Participant may elect to have his Account paid to him in accordance with one of the following forms: 



 

	 	(1)	 A single lump-sum distribution as provided in subparagraph (a) payable in the year of the Participant’s Separation from Service or, if
elected by the Participant, January of the next year following such Separation from Service; 


  

	 	(2)	 Annual installments over a period not to exceed fifteen (15) years (such installment period to be elected by the Participant), beginning
(i) as soon as administratively practicable following the Participant’s Separation from Service, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs or, if later, ninety
(90) days after such Separation from Service, or (ii) if elected by the Participant, January of the next year following such Separation from Service, with (under either option) subsequent installments paid in January of each subsequent
year, provided that all subsequent installments will be paid in the next succeeding January, with each installment determined by dividing the value of the Participant’s Account by the number of installments remaining to be made; or



  

	 	(3)	 A single lump-sum distribution payable in January of a year following the Participant’s Separation of Service that is not earlier than two
(2) years, and not later than fifteen (15) years following the Participant’s Separation from Service, such year to be elected by the Participant. The amount of such distribution shall equal the balance in the Participant’s
Account at such specified date. Pending the lump-sum distribution as aforesaid, the Participant’s Account shall continue to be invested in accordance with Section 2.4. At the end of each calendar quarter following the Participant’s
Separation from Service, the net increase or decrease in the value of the Participant’s Account, measured from the first valuation of the Participant’s Account pursuant to Section 2.4 which coincides with or next follows the
Participant’s Separation from Service, shall be determined. Subject to subparagraph (d)(1)(A), the amount of any such net increase for any calendar quarter shall be distributed to the Participant within thirty (30) days following the end
of such calendar quarter. 


  

	 	(d)	 A Participant who has made the election or the deemed election described in subparagraphs (b) or (a) respectively may elect in writing to
change the 



  
 7 









	 	 
form of payment and/or the payment commencement date in accordance with the following rules: 


  

	 	(1)	 When a Participant’s existing form of payment 


  

	 	    	 (A) is described in subparagraphs (a), (c)(1) or (c)(2) above, a Participant may elect to receive the Participant’s Account in any form set forth in
paragraph (c) above, provided that any election of the form described in subparagraph (c)(3) above shall not provide separate quarterly payments of investment income; and 



 

	 	    	 (B) is described in subparagraph (c)(3) above, a Participant may elect to receive the Participant’s Account in the form described in subsection (c)(2)
above or change the date as of which the Participant will be paid a single lump-sum under subparagraph (c)(3) above. 


  

	 	(2)	 A Participant’s election to modify a prior election shall be made both prior to his Separation from Service and at least twelve (12) months
prior to the date on which payments would have commenced in accordance with his prior election. 


  

	 	(3)	 Notwithstanding the payment date indicated by the form of payment elected thereby, a Participant’s modification election to alter the form of
payment and/or the date on which his payments will commence must have the effect of postponing the payment commencement date by at least five (5) years, and shall be administered accordingly. No such election shall be permitted if the payment
commencement date that was previously elected was more than ten (10) years after the Participant’s Separation from Service. 


  

	 	(4)	 In the case of a Participant who desires to (A) change the form of payment from a single lump-sum distribution to annual installments, or
(B) postpone the payment commencement date of annual installments that he previously elected, the maximum number of annual installments shall be fifteen (15), minus the number of years (with a fractional year rounded up to a full year) between
the Participant’s Separation from Service and the postponed payment commencement date. 


  

	 	(5)	 For purposes of this paragraph (d), 


  

	 	    	 (A) the date as of which payments to a Participant would have commenced, absent the election provided by this paragraph, shall be deemed to be the first
possible date as of which such payments could have been made to the Participant; 



  
 8 









	 	    	 (B) the quarterly payment of investment income provided under paragraph (c)(3) above shall be treated as a separate form of payment from the single lump-sum
distribution provided by such paragraph; and 


  

	 	    	 (C) the entitlement to a series of installment payments shall be treated as the entitlement to a single form of payment. 



 

	 	(e)	 On the death of a Participant who has not received payment of his full Account under subparagraphs (a) or (c), the Named Fiduciary-Plan
Administration shall cause the unpaid balance of the Participant’s Account to be paid in a single lump-sum payment to such Participant’s Beneficiaries. Such payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following completion
of the first valuation of the Participant’s Account pursuant to Section 2.4 which coincides with or next follows the Participant’s date of death, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year in which the Participant’s
date of death occurs or, if later, ninety (90) days after such date of death. 


  

	4.2	 No Payments Prior to Separation From Service – Under no circumstances shall a Participant receive any payment from the Plan prior to his
Separation from Service. 


  

	4.3	 Specified Employee Restriction – Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, no payment shall be made to a “specified
employee” (as determined in accordance with a uniform policy adopted by the Company with respect to all arrangements subject to Section 409A of the Code maintained by the Company and its Affiliated Companies) until six (6) months plus
one day following such specified employee’s Separation from Service; provided however, that in the event of the specified employee’s death before his payment commencement date, this provision shall not prevent payment of death benefits at
the time prescribed by Section 4.1(e). 


  

	4.4	 Deferrals from STD Payments Subsequent to Separation from Service – To the extent that a Participant’s deferral election under
Section 2.1 applies to Compensation paid to him following a Separation from Service that consists of short-term disability benefits under a short-term disability plan of the Company or an Affiliated Company, the amount credited to his Account
from such deferral for a calendar year, valued in accordance with Section 2.4, shall be paid to such Participant in a single lump-sum payment in cash in January of the next year following such deferral. 



 

	4.5	 Responsibility for Payments – All payments attributable to credits made hereunder on behalf of a Participant shall be made by the Company
on its own behalf or on behalf of the Affiliated Company by who such Participant was 



  
 9 









	 	 
employed when such credits were made. Such Affiliated Company shall reimburse the Company for all amounts paid on its behalf.

Administration shall have the responsibility and power to interpret the Plan, to make factual determinations and to determine whether a credit should be made on behalf of a Participant, the amount of the credit and the value of the amount so

	6.1	 Amendment - The Board of Directors reserves the right at any time and from time to time, and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate to
conform with governmental regulations or other policies, to modify or amend in whole or in part any or all of the provisions of the Plan. In addition, (i) prior to March 1, 2013 the Senior Vice President-Human Resources of the Company; and

at the time the amendment is adopted. 


  

	6.2	 Termination - The Plan is purely voluntary and the Board of Directors reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time, provided, however,
that the termination shall not operate to reduce the accrued benefit of any individual who is a Participant at the time the Plan is terminated.

General Provisions 
  

	7.1	 Source of Payments - The Plan shall not be funded and all payments hereunder to Participants and their Beneficiaries shall be paid from the
general assets of the Company. The Company shall not, by virtue of any provisions of the Plan or by any action of any person hereunder, be deemed to be a trustee or other fiduciary of any property for any Participant or his Beneficiaries and the
liabilities of the Company to any Participant or his Beneficiaries pursuant to the Plan shall be those of a debtor only pursuant to such contractual obligations as are created by the Plan and no such obligation of the Company shall be deemed to be
secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any property of the Company. To the extent that any Participant or his Beneficiaries acquire a right to receive a payment from the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of
any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 



  
 11 









	7.2	 No Warranties - Neither the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration nor the Company warrants or represents in any way that the value of each
Participant’s Account will increase or not decrease. Such Participant assumes all risk in connection with any change in such value.

sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge and any attempt to do so shall be void; nor shall any such benefit or interest be in any manner liable for or subject to garnishment, attachment, execution or levy or liable for or subject to
the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Participant or his Beneficiaries. In the event that the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration shall find that any Participant or his Beneficiaries has become bankrupt or that any attempt
has been made to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any benefit payable under, or interest in, the Plan, the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration shall hold or apply such benefit or interest or any part thereof
to or for the benefit of such Participant or his Beneficiaries, his spouse, children, parents or other relatives or any of them.

or other specialist engaged by the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration.

of Directors nor the Named Fiduciary-Plan Administration shall be responsible or liable in any manner to any Participant, Beneficiary or any person claiming through them for any action taken or omitted in connection with the granting of benefits or
the interpretation and administration of the Plan.

amounts of income and other taxes.

choice of law principles thereof. 



  
 12
