ITT RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN


(As Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2018)

ARTICLE 1 
     
INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE
The ITT Investment and Savings Plan for Salaried Employees (the “ISP”) was established effective April 1, 1974 by ITT Corporation for the benefit of certain salaried employees. The ISP was subsequently renamed the ITT Salaried Investment and Savings Plan.
Effective October 31, 2011, ITT Corporation restructured into three separate publicly traded companies named ITT Corporation, Exelis Inc., and Xylem Inc. In connection with the restructuring, sponsorship of the ISP was transferred to Exelis Inc.
Also in connection with the restructuring, ITT Corporation (as in existence after the restructuring) established, effective as of October 31, 2011, the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees (the “Plan”), for the eligible employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Accounts in the ISP attributable to participants in the ISP who became employees on October 31, 2011 of ITT Corporation (as in existence after the restructuring) or any of its subsidiaries as well as accounts attributable to participants in the ISP who were former employees of the closed Water Technologies Division of Goulds Pumps were transferred to the Plan and that portion of the Plan constitutes a successor plan to the ISP.
Effective from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2015, the Plan was designed to be a safe harbor plan with respect to before-tax savings (pursuant to Section 401(k)(12) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”)) and with respect to matching contributions (pursuant to Section 401(m)(11) of the Code).
Effective as of the close of business on December 31, 2012, the following qualified plans were merged into the Plan and accounts for each participant and beneficiary thereof were transferred to the Plan:
ITT Koni Friction Products Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
ITT Engineered Valves CA Pure Flo Solutions Group Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
ITT Pure Flo Precision Savings Plan for Hourly Employees 


Effective as of the close of business on December 31, 2013, the following qualified plans were merged into the Plan and accounts for each participant and beneficiary thereof were transferred to the Plan:
ITT Aerospace Controls Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
ITT Control Technologies Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
ITT Cannon Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
ITT BIW Connector Systems Employees’ Savings Plan
ITT Engineered Valves -- Fabri Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
ITT Engineered Valves -- Lancaster Savings Plan for Hourly Employees


Effective January 1, 2014, the Plan was renamed the “ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan.”  In addition, effective January 1, 2014, assets and liabilities attributable to account balances transferred to the ITT Industrial Process Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees (the “IPRSP”) from the Pro Cast and Goulds Pumps Service Center Employees’ Savings Plan (the “Pro Cast Plan”) on December 31, 2013 were transferred from the IPRSP to the Plan for each former participant and beneficiary of the Pro Cast Plan.


Effective as of the close of business on December 31, 2015, the following qualified plans were merged into the Plan and accounts for each participant and beneficiary thereof were transferred to the Plan:
AcousticFab, LLC 401(k) Plan
Electrofilm Manufacturing Company, LLC 401(k) Plan
Industrial Tube Company, LLC 401(k) Plan


Effective January 1, 2016, ITT Industries Holdings, Inc. became the Plan Sponsor and the Plan was renamed the “ITT Retirement Savings Plan.”

Effective as of the close of business on September 4, 2018, the ITT Industrial Process Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees was merged into the Plan and accounts for each participant and beneficiary thereof were transferred to the Plan.


The Plan, as amended and restated herein effective January 1, 2018, and such other dates as are expressly provided herein, is intended to constitute a profit sharing plan with an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) feature within the meaning of Section 4975(e) of the Code and a cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code. The portion of the Plan intended to qualify as an ESOP is designed to invest primarily in qualifying employer securities as such term is defined in Section 4975(e)(8) of the Code and is intended to comply with the distributions requirements of Section 409(o) of the Code.
The provisions of the Plan are conditioned upon the Plan’s qualification under Section 401(a) of the Code and Company contributions being deductible under Section 404 of the Code. It is further intended that the Plan also conform to the requirements of Title I of ERISA and that the Trust be qualified under Section 501 of the Code.



ARTICLE 2 
     
DEFINITIONS
		
	2.1
	“Accounts” shall mean, with respect to any Member or Deferred Member, his After-Tax Account, Before-Tax Account, Company Core Account, Company Floor Account, Company Matching Account, Industrial Process Transfer Contributions Account, Industrial Process Transition Credit Account, Merged Bargained Plan Matching Employer Contributions Account, Merged Employer Contributions Account, Merged Matching Employer Contributions Account, Prior Company Matching Account, Prior ESOP Account, Prior Plan Account, Rollover Account, Roth Account, Roth Rollover Account, Special Company Contribution Account, and Special Transition Contributions Account.


		
	2.2
	“Actual Contribution Percentage” shall mean, with respect to a specified group of employees referred to in Section 4.5, the average of the ratios, calculated separately for each employee in that group, of:


		
	(a)
	the After-Tax Savings and Company Matching Contributions (excluding Company Matching Contributions forfeited under Section 4.1 or 4.5) made by or on behalf of the employee for the Plan Year; to


		
	(b)
	the employee’s Statutory Compensation for a Plan Year.


Only Company Matching Contributions that are permitted to be taken into account under applicable Treasury Regulations for purposes of the test described in Section 4.5 shall be taken into account for purposes of calculating the Actual Contribution Percentage. An Actual Contribution Percentage shall be computed to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent of the employee’s Statutory Compensation.  For purposes of this calculation, the non-Highly Compensated Employee Actual Contribution Percentage shall be determined based on the then current Plan Year and the Highly Compensated Employee Actual Contribution Percentage shall also be determined for the then current Plan Year. For purposes of this Section, Statutory Compensation shall exclude compensation paid to the employee while he is not a Plan Member. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective for any Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2012, and before January 1, 2016, the Benefits Administration Committee may elect to calculate the Actual Contribution Percentage without regard to Company Matching Contributions.
		
	2.3
	“Actual Deferral Percentage” shall mean, with respect to a specified group of employees referred to in Section 4.1(d), the average of the ratios, calculated separately for each employee in that group, of:

	(b)
	the employee’s Statutory Compensation for a Plan Year.


Such Actual Deferral Percentage shall be computed to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent of the employee’s Statutory Compensation. For purposes of this calculation, the non-Highly Compensated Employee Actual Deferral Percentage shall be

determined based on the then current Plan Year and the Highly Compensated Employee Actual Deferral Percentage shall also be determined for the then current Plan Year. For purposes of this Section, Statutory Compensation shall exclude compensation paid to the employee while he is not a Plan Member. For purposes of this Section, Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions may be taken into account for a Plan Year only if they relate to compensation that either would have been received by the Member in the Plan Year but for the deferral election or are attributable to services performed by the Member in the Plan Year and would have been received by the Member within 21⁄2 months after the close of the Plan Year but for the deferral election; are allocated to the Member as of a date within that Plan Year and the allocation is not contingent on the participation or performance of service after such date; and are actually paid to the Trustees no later than 12 months after the end of the Plan Year to which the contributions relate.

	(a)
	a component member of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in Section 414(b) of the Code), which controlled group of corporations includes as a component member ITT;


		
	(b)
	any trade or business under common control (as defined in Section 414(c) of the Code) with ITT;


		
	(c)
	any organization (whether or not incorporated) which is a member of an affiliated service group (as defined in Section 414(m) of the Code) which includes ITT; or


		
	(d)
	any other entity required to be aggregated with ITT pursuant to regulations under Section 414(o) of the Code,


during the period it is described in (a), (b), (c), or (d).

In the event that more than one primary Beneficiary is named (or, in the event of the death of all of the primary Beneficiaries, more than one contingent Beneficiary is named), they shall share equally in the value of the Vested Share of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts unless the Member or Deferred Member shall have designated different percentages for the different Beneficiaries. Unless otherwise specified by the Member or Deferred Member, the designation of any primary Beneficiary or contingent Beneficiary who subsequently predeceases the Member or Deferred Member shall be deemed void and have no further effect. In accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations, a trust may be designated as either a primary or contingent Beneficiary. Except as hereinafter provided, in the case of a Member or Deferred Member who is married, the sole Beneficiary shall be the Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse unless such spouse consents in writing on a form witnessed by a notary public to the designation of another person as primary Beneficiary. Such consent shall be irrevocable with respect to such Beneficiary designation. In the case of a Member or Deferred Member who incurs a divorce under applicable State law prior to commencing benefits under the Plan, such Member’s or Deferred Member’s designation of a named Beneficiary shall remain valid unless otherwise provided in a qualified domestic relations order (as described in Article 18 of the Plan) or unless such Member or Deferred Member changes his named Beneficiary or is subsequently remarried. If no Beneficiary designation is in effect at the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death or if no person, persons or entity so designated survives the Member or Deferred Member, the Member’s or Deferred Member’s surviving spouse, if any, shall be the sole Beneficiary; otherwise the Beneficiary shall be the personal representative of the estate of the Member or Deferred Member.

	In order to comply with Section 415 of the Code, the Benefits Administration Committee may impose an additional limit on any Member’s Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contributions based on the Benefits Administration Committee’s reasonable projection of the total “annual addition” (as defined in Section 5.4) that will be credited to a Member’s Accounts for a Plan Year.


		
	(iii)
	Prior to January 1, 2012, and on and after January 1, 2016, in order to comply with Section 401(k)(3) of the Code, the Benefits Administration Committee may impose a limitation on the extent to which a Member who is a Highly Compensated 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 16





Employee may reduce his Salary in accordance herewith, based on the Benefits Administration Committee’s reasonable projection of Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contribution rates of Members who are not Highly Compensated Employees.
		
	(iv)
	A Member may elect to change the rate of Regular Before-Tax Savings under this paragraph (a) or regular Roth Contributions under Section 4.7 as of the first day of any pay period by making an election in the form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose. The changed rate shall be effective as soon as administratively possible following the date the election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator.


Effective as of such date as is approved by the Benefit Administration Committee and in accordance with such rules and procedures as may be prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee, a Member may elect to have the rate of his Regular Before-Tax Savings or regular Roth Contributions automatically escalated.  
Effective beginning April 1, 2015, and subject to such rules and procedures as may be prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee, the contribution rate of a Member shall be automatically increased by 1 percent each April 1 as follows:
		
	(A)
	The contribution rate increase shall apply only if (1) the Member does not opt out of the automatic increase pursuant to such rules and procedures as may be prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee, and (2) as of such April 1, the Member has in effect a contribution rate of less than 10 percent with respect to the combination of Before-Tax Savings, After-Tax Savings, and Roth Contributions.  The contribution rate increase shall not apply, however, on April 1, 2015, with respect to a Member who, as of such date, has elected to make Roth Contributions.


		
	(B)
	If the contribution rate increase applies, the Member’s contribution rate for Before-Tax Savings shall be increased, as of such April 1, by one percent, except:  (1) if, as of such April 1, the Member’s contribution rate for Before-Tax Savings is zero percent and the Member has a contribution rate for Roth Contributions that is greater than zero percent, the one-percent increase shall instead be applied to the Member’s contribution rate for Roth Contributions, and (2) if, as of such April 1, the Member’s contribution rate for Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contributions is zero percent and the Member has a contribution rate for After-Tax Savings that is greater than zero percent, the one-percent increase shall instead be applied to the Member’s contribution rate for After-Tax Savings.


		
	(b)
	Catch-Up Contributions


A Member who has attained or will attain age 50 by the last day of the Member’s taxable year may elect, in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee, to make Catch-Up Contributions for any Plan Year in accordance with and subject to the limitations of Section 414(v) of the Code. Such Catch-Up Contributions shall be treated under the Plan as Before-Tax Savings or Roth Contributions, as elected by the Member, but shall be subject to the following special rules:
		
	(i)
	A Member’s Catch-Up Contributions shall not be taken into account for purposes of applying the maximum percentage limitation described in (a) above or the limitations under Sections 402(g) and 415 of the Code and Members’ Catch-Up Contributions shall not be taken into account in applying the Actual Deferral Percentage test of (d) below.


		
	(ii)
	The Plan shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the provisions of the Plan implementing the requirements of Section 401(k)(3), 401(k)(11), 401(k)(12), 410(b), or 416 of the Code, as applicable, by reason of making such Catch-Up Contributions.


		
	(iii)
	The determination of whether a Before-Tax Savings contribution under this Section or a Roth Contribution under Section 4.7 constitutes a Catch-Up Contribution for any Plan Year 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 17





shall be determined as of the end of such Plan Year, in accordance with Section 414(v) of the Code. Before-Tax Savings contributions or Roth Contributions that are intended to be Catch-Up Contributions for a Plan Year but which do not qualify as Catch-Up Contributions as of the end of the Plan Year shall be treated for all purposes under the Plan as Regular Before-Tax Savings or regular Roth Contributions.
		
	(iv)
	The Company shall take a Member’s Catch-Up Contributions into account for purposes of determining the amount of Company Matching Contributions under Section 5.1 for a Plan Year.


		
	(v)
	A Member’s Catch-Up Contributions shall be subject to the same withdrawal and distribution restrictions as Regular Before-Tax Savings contributions and regular Roth Contributions.


		
	(vi)
	In the event that the sum of a Member’s Catch-Up Contributions and similar contributions to any other qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Company or an Associated Company exceeds the dollar limit on catch-up contributions under Section 414(v) of the Code for any calendar year as in effect for such calendar year, the Member shall be deemed to have elected a return of the Catch-Up Contributions in excess of the limit under Section 414(v) of the Code and such amount shall be treated in the same manner as “excess deferrals” under (c) below.


		
	(vii)
	If a Member makes catch-up contributions under a qualified defined contribution plan and/or Code Section 403(b) plan maintained by an employer other than the Company or an Associated Company for any calendar year and those contributions when added to his Catch-Up Contributions exceed the dollar limit on catch-up contributions under Section 414(v) of the Code for that calendar year, the Member may allocate all or a portion of such “excess catch-up contributions” to this Plan. In the event such Member notifies the Benefits Administration Committee of the “excess catch-up contributions” in the same manner as is required for allocated “excess deferrals” under (c) below, such “excess catch-up contributions” shall be distributed in the same manner as “excess deferrals” under (c) below.


A Member may elect to change the rate of his Catch-Up Contributions under this paragraph (b) as of the first day of any pay period by making an election in the form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose. The changed rate of Catch-Up Contributions shall be effective as soon as administratively possible following the date the election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator.
		
	(c)
	Application of Maximum Dollar Limit on Regular Before-Tax Savings and Regular Roth Contributions


The maximum dollar amount of Regular Before-Tax Savings, regular Roth Contributions, and similar contributions made on a Member’s behalf by the Company or any Associated Company to all plans, contracts or arrangements subject to the provisions of Section 401(a)(30) of the Code for a calendar year shall be the maximum amount determined by the Secretary of the Treasury for such calendar year, pursuant to Section 402(g) of the Code as in effect for such calendar year, except as permitted under Section 414(v) of the Code. Amounts contributed in excess of such limit shall constitute “excess deferrals.”
		
	(i)
	Prevention of Excess Deferrals Under Plan. If a Member’s Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions in a calendar year reach the dollar limit on elective deferrals under Section 401(a)(30) of the Code in any calendar year, the Member’s election to make Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions will be canceled. Such Member may elect at any time to make After-Tax Savings in accordance with Section 4.2. As of the first pay period of the calendar year following the cancellation of a Member’s Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions in accordance with first sentence of this paragraph, the Member’s election of Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions shall again become effective in accordance with his previous election, unless the Member elects otherwise in accordance with Section 4.3.




 EXHIBIT 10.15

	(ii)
	Treatment of Excess Deferrals under Plan and Plans of Associated Companies. In the event that the sum of a Member’s Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions and similar contributions to any other qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Company or an Associated Company exceeds the dollar limit on elective deferrals under Section 402(g) of the Code for any calendar year as in effect for such calendar year, a Member who is eligible to make Catch-Up Contributions to the Plan will be deemed to have such excess deferrals reclassified as Catch-Up Contributions (with regular Roth Contributions reclassified first), subject to the limitations of (b) above. To the extent that the reclassification described in the preceding sentence is not applicable, or is insufficient to fully resolve the issue of the excess deferrals, the Member shall be deemed to have elected a return of the Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions in excess of the limit under Section 402(g) of the Code from this Plan (with the excess allocated first to regular Before-Tax Savings). The excess deferrals, together with Earnings, shall be returned to the Member no later than April 15 following the end of the calendar year in which the excess deferrals were made. The amount of excess deferrals to be returned for any calendar year shall be reduced by any Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions previously returned to the Member under (d) below for that calendar year. In the event any Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions returned under this paragraph were matched by Company Matching Contributions, those Company Matching Contributions, together with Earnings, shall be forfeited and used to reduce future Company contributions.


		
	(iii)
	Treatment of Member-Allocated Excess Deferrals. If a Member makes tax-deferred contributions under another qualified defined contribution plan and/or a Code Section 403(b) plan maintained by an employer other than the Company or an Associated Company for any calendar year and those contributions when added to his Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions exceed the dollar limit on elective deferrals under Section 402(g) of the Code for that calendar year, the Member may allocate all or a portion of such excess deferrals to this Plan. In that event, a Member who is eligible to make Catch-Up Contributions to the Plan will be deemed to have such excess deferrals reclassified as Catch-Up Contributions (with regular Roth Contributions reclassified first), subject to the limitations of (b) above. To the extent that the reclassification described in the preceding sentence is not applicable, or is insufficient to fully resolve the issue of the excess deferrals, such excess deferrals (with the excess allocated first to Regular Before-Tax Savings), together with Earnings, shall be returned to the Member no later than the April 15 following the end of the calendar year in which such excess deferrals were made. However, the Plan shall not be required to return excess deferrals unless the Member notifies the Benefits Administration Committee or its designee, in writing, not later than March 1, of that following year, of the amount of the tax-deferred contributions made to the plan of the other employer. The amount of any excess deferrals to be returned for any calendar year shall be reduced by any Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions previously returned to the Member under (d) below for that calendar year. In the event any Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions returned under this paragraph were matched by Company Matching Contributions, those Company Matching Contributions, together with Earnings, shall be forfeited and used to reduce Company contributions.


Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as provided for in Appendix M, in lieu of a return of the excess deferrals, a Member may elect, to the extent permitted under applicable Treasury Regulations, to have the Plan treat all or a portion of the excess deferrals attributable to his Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions as After-Tax Savings, subject to the limitations of Section 4.2; provided the Member notifies the Benefits Administration Committee or its designee, in writing, by the date determined by the Benefits Administration Committee. For this purpose, the excess deferrals, together with Earnings, shall be deemed distributed to the Member and then recontributed to the Plan by the Member as After-Tax Savings for the Plan Year in which the excess deferrals were made. Reclassified excess deferrals shall be considered After-Tax Savings made in the Plan Year to which the excess deferrals relate for purposes of Section 4.5 and shall be subject to the withdrawal provisions applicable to After-Tax Savings under Article 9. If the excess deferrals were matched by Company Matching Contributions, the corresponding Company Matching Contributions shall remain 


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 19





allocated to the Member’s Company Account to the extent such excess deferrals if made, as After-Tax Savings would have been matched under the provisions of Section 5.1. The Member’s election to reclassify excess deferrals shall be made no later than April 1 following the close of the Plan Year in which the excess deferrals were made or within such shorter period as the Benefits Administration Committee may prescribe.
		
	(iv)
	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Member who (A) ceases to be an Employee during a Plan Year; (B) is employed during such Plan Year by an employer which is not the Company or an Associated Company; and (C) exceeds the limitation on elective deferrals enumerated in Section 402(g) of the Code based on the Member’s participation in the Plan and participation in a plan maintained by the subsequent employer; the Plan shall not distribute to the Member any Before-Tax Savings, Roth Contributions (or any income thereon) arising solely as a result of such Member’s exceeding the limit under Section 402(g) of the Code for the Plan Year, unless the exceeding of such limit is based solely on the Member’s participation in this Plan without considering any other plan.


		
	(d)
	ADP Test on Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contributions


Effective for Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 2012, and before January 1, 2016, except as provided in Appendix K for certain Union Employees described therein, the Plan is intended to satisfy the safe harbor alternative method of meeting the nondiscrimination requirements under Section 401(k)(12) of the Code by treating the first three percent of Company Core Contributions under Section 5.2 as nonelective contributions pursuant to Section 401(k)(12)(C) of the Code. Accordingly, the Plan is deemed to satisfy the ADP Test under Section 401(k) of the Code for such Plan Years with respect to Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions.
Prior to January 1, 2012, and on and after January 1, 2016, the amount of Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions made to the Plan for a Plan Year shall comply with the provisions of Section 401(k)(3) of the Code, including any regulations issued thereunder and any subsequent Internal Revenue Service guidance issued under Section 401(k) of the Code. The current year testing method shall be used.
Amounts that would cause the Plan to fail the ADP test shall constitute “excess contributions.” If the Benefits Administration Committee determines that the limitation has been exceeded, the following provisions shall apply:
		
	(i)
	The excess contributions shall first be treated as Catch-Up Contributions to the extent possible under Section 4.1(b) (with regular Roth Contributions reclassified first).


		
	(ii)
	Any remaining excess contributions, together with Earnings thereon, will be allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the greatest dollar amount of such contributions in the following manner:


		
	(A)
	The amount to be allocated shall be the lesser of (1) the total excess contributions or (2) such amount as will cause the dollar amount of such Highly Compensated Employee’s Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions to equal the dollar amount of the Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions.  For this purpose, excess contributions will be allocated first to Regular Before-Tax Savings and then to regular Roth Contributions.


		
	(B)
	The process described in (A) above shall be repeated, if necessary, until the total excess contributions shall have been allocated. At any stage in this allocation process, if two or more Highly Compensated Employees have the same dollar amount remaining of Regular Before-Tax Savings and regular Roth Contributions, the allocation shall be made to both of them in equal amounts.




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 20





		
	(iii)
	The excess contributions allocated to Highly Compensated Employees under (ii) above shall be distributed to such Members before the close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the excess contributions were made, and to the extent practicable, within 21⁄2 months of the close of the Plan Year in which the excess contributions were made. Alternatively, under rules adopted by the Benefits Administration Committee, such Members may elect to recharacterize such excess contributions as After-Tax Savings provided such election to recharacterize the excess contributions is made within 21⁄2 months after the close of the Plan Year in which the excess contributions were made or within such shorter period as the Benefits Administration Committee may prescribe. When the total excess contributions shall have been allocated and distributed or recharacterized in the manner described above, the Plan shall be deemed to satisfy the tests set forth in this Section, regardless of whether the final Average Deferral Percentage of the Highly Compensated Employees in fact satisfy such tests. In the event any Regular Before-Tax Savings and/or regular Roth Contributions distributed under this Section were matched by Company Matching Contributions, those Company Matching Contributions, together with Earnings, shall be forfeited and used to reduce Company contributions.


		
	4.2
	Member After-Tax Savings


		
	(a)
	Except as otherwise provided in Appendix M, by authorizing payroll deductions, each Member may elect, subject to (b) below, to contribute to the Trust Fund as After-Tax Savings any whole percentage from 1 percent to 50 percent of his Salary in such payroll period, subject to the following:


		
	(i)
	The total amount of After-Tax Savings for any Plan Year may not exceed 50 percent of his Salary reduced by the rate of Before-Tax Savings being made pursuant to Section 4.1(a) and/or Roth Contributions being made pursuant to Section 4.7.


		
	(ii)
	In order to comply with Section 415 of the Code, the Benefits Administration Committee may impose an additional limit on any Member’s After-Tax Savings based on the Benefits Administration Committee’s reasonable projection of the total “annual addition” (as defined in Section 5.4) that will credited to a Member’s Accounts for a Plan Year.


A Member’s election shall be effective as soon as administratively possible following the date such election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the special provisions of (A) Section 4.1(a)(i)(A) shall apply with respect to an Employee who is employed as an Employee by the Company on October 31, 2011 and (B) Section 4.1(a)(i)(B) shall apply with respect to individuals who were active participants in a Merged Plan or the Merged Bargained Plan on December 31, 2013.
		
	(b)
	In order to comply with Section 401(m) and/or 415 of the Code, the Benefits Administration Committee may impose an additional limit on the extent to which a Member who is a Highly Compensated Employee may contribute to the Trust Fund as After-Tax Savings, based on the Benefits Administration Committee’s reasonable projection of After-Tax Savings rates of Members who are not Highly Compensated Employees and the necessity of satisfying the test described in Section 4.5.


A Member may elect to change his After-Tax Savings rate on any business day by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose. The changed After-Tax Savings rate shall be effective as soon as administratively possible following the date notice is received by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.
		
	4.3
	Suspension and Resumption of Member Savings


		
	(a)
	A Member may suspend his Savings under Section 4.1 and/or Section 4.2 or his Roth Contributions under Section 4.7 as of any business day by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose. Such suspension will become effective as soon as administratively possible following the date the election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee. If a 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 21





Member takes a withdrawal from his Before-Tax Account under Section 9.3(a) or (b), his Savings and Roth Contributions shall be suspended for a period of six months to the extent provided in the applicable Section. Such suspension will become effective as soon as administratively possible following the Withdrawal Valuation Date. No Company Matching Contributions shall be made under Section 5.1 during the period of a Member’s suspension although he will continue to be considered a Member and he will be entitled to Company Core Contributions and any Special Company Contributions or Special Transition Contributions that may be payable during the period of suspension.
		
	(b)
	A Member who suspends his Savings and/or Roth Contributions in accordance with the first sentence of (a) above may resume his Savings under Section 4.1 and/or under Section 4.2 and/or his Roth Contributions under Section 4.7 as of any pay period after the date the suspension commenced by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose.


		
	(c)
	A Member whose Savings and or Roth Contributions are suspended in accordance with the third sentence of (a) above (or were suspended as of the merger date under any similar provision in any Merged Hartzell Plan, Merged Plan, the Merged Bargained Plan, or the Merged Industrial Process Plan) may resume his Savings under Section 4.1 and/or under Section 4.2 and/or his Roth Contributions under Section 4.7 as of the first day of any pay period following the six-month suspension by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose. A resumption elected pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall occur as soon as administratively possible after the election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.


		
	4.4
	Rollover Contributions


		
	(a)
	With the permission of the Benefits Administration Committee, and without regard to any limitation on contributions under this Article 4 or Section 5.4, the Plan may accept from or on behalf of a Member, but not a Deferred Member, a Rollover Contribution in cash, consisting of any amount, including after-tax amounts but, prior to February 1, 2015, excluding any amount attributable to Roth contributions, previously received (or deemed to be received) by him from an “eligible retirement plan.” Such Rollover Contributions shall be subject to the following:


		
	(i)
	For purposes of this Section, “eligible retirement plan” means:


		
	(A)
	another employer’s qualified plan described in Section 401(a) of the Code (or another qualified defined contribution plan sponsored by the Company or an Associated Company, provided that the Rollover Contribution represents the rollover of all or a portion of a full distribution of the individual’s account balance in such plan due to the sale or closing of a business unit sponsoring such plan);


		
	(B)
	an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code;


		
	(C)
	an annuity contract described in Section 403(b) of the Code;


		
	(D)
	an eligible Plan under Section 457(b) of the Code that is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state; or


		
	(E)
	an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity of the Member described in Section 408(a) or 408(b) of the Code that contains only amounts that were originally distributed from a qualified plan described in Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code (i.e., a “conduit IRA”).


		
	(b)
	Such Rollover Contribution may be received in any of the following ways:


		
	(i)
	The Plan may accept such amount as a direct rollover of an eligible rollover distribution, including after-tax amounts (other than Roth contributions described in (ii), below) provided such after-tax 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 22





amounts are received directly from a plan that is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code or an annuity contract described in Section 403(b) of the Code.
		
	(ii)
	On or after February 1, 2015, the Plan may accept a rollover of Roth contributions to a Member’s Roth Rollover Account, but only if it is a direct rollover from another Roth contribution account under an applicable retirement plan described in section 402A(e)(1) of the Code and only to the extent the rollover is permitted under the rules of section 402(c) of the Code.


		
	(iii)
	The Plan may accept such amount directly from the Member provided such amount:


		
	(A)
	was distributed to the Member by an eligible retirement plan;


		
	(B)
	is received by the Plan on or before the 60th day after the day it was received by the Member;


		
	(C)
	would otherwise be includible in gross income; and


		
	(D)
	is not attributable to Roth contributions.


Notwithstanding (B) above, the Benefits Administration Committee may accept a Rollover Contribution more than 60 days after the amount was received by the Member provided the Member has received from the Secretary of the Treasury a waiver of the 60-day requirement, pursuant to Section 402(c)(3)(B) of the Code.
		
	4.5
	ACP Test on After-Tax Savings and Company Matching Contributions


Effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2012, and before January 1, 2016, except as provided for certain Union Employees pursuant to Appendix K, the Plan is intended to satisfy the alternative method of meeting the nondiscrimination requirements with respect to Company Matching Contributions under Section 401(m)(11) of the Code by treating the first three percent of Company Core Contributions under Section 5.2 as nonelective contributions pursuant to Section 401(k)(12)(C) of the Code. Accordingly, with respect to such Plan Years, the Plan is deemed to satisfy the ACP Test under Section 401(m)(11) of the Code with respect to Company Matching Contributions.
Except as provided for certain Union Employees pursuant to Appendix K, the amount of After-Tax Savings and, for Plan Years beginning before January 1, 2012 and on or after January 1, 2016, Company Matching Contributions made to the Plan shall comply with the provisions of Section 401(m)(2) of the Code (the “ACP Test”), including any regulations issued thereunder and any subsequent Internal Revenue Service guidance issued under Section 401(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, for any Plan Year, the Benefits Administration Committee may elect to take Company Matching Contributions for the Plan Year into account for purposes of the ACP Test, to the extent permitted under applicable law.
Amounts that would cause the Plan to fail the ACP test constitute “excess aggregate contributions.” If the Benefits Administration Committee determines that the limitation has been exceeded, the following provisions apply:
		
	(a)
	The payment or forfeiture of the excess aggregate contributions, together with Earnings thereon, shall be made before the close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the excess aggregate contributions were made and, to the extent practicable, any payment or forfeiture will be made within 21⁄2 months following the end of the Plan Year for which the contributions were made.


		
	(b)
	The total amount of excess aggregate contributions, together with Earnings thereon, shall be allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the greatest dollar amount of such contributions in the following manner:


		
	(i)
	The amount to be allocated shall be the lesser of (A) the total excess aggregate contributions, or (B) such amount as will cause the dollar amount of such Highly Compensated Employee’s After Tax Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions, to equal the dollar amount of the After Tax Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions, of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of After Tax Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions.




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 23





		
	(ii)
	The process described in (i) above shall be repeated, if necessary, until the total excess aggregate contributions shall have been allocated. At any stage in the allocation process herein described, if two or more Highly Compensated Employees have the same dollar amount remaining of After Tax Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions, the allocation shall be made to both of them in equal amounts.


		
	(c)
	The excess aggregate contributions allocated to Highly Compensated Employees under (b) above, together with Earnings thereon, shall be paid or returned to a Member from the following categories of contributions (adjusted to reflect earnings or losses attributable thereto):


		
	(i)
	first, unmatched After-Tax Savings;


		
	(ii)
	second, matched After-Tax Savings; and


		
	(iii)
	third, Company Matching Contributions, if applicable.


Once the excess aggregate contributions are paid or returned as described above, the Plan shall be deemed to satisfy the ACP test set forth in this Section, regardless of whether the final Average Contribution Percentage of the Highly Compensated Employees in fact satisfy such tests.
		
	(d)
	A Member’s Actual Contribution Percentage shall be determined after a Member’s excess Before-Tax Savings are either recontributed to the Plan as After-Tax Savings or paid to the Member.


		
	4.6
	Transfer Contributions


With the permission of the Benefits Administration Committee and under such conditions as it may require, but without regard to any limitations on contributions set forth in this Article 4 or Section 5.4, the Plan may accept an amount, if any, from another qualified plan that, in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.9, the Member elects under such plan to transfer to this Plan, or which the Trustee of such other qualified plan transfers directly to the Trustee of this Plan. Such transferred contributions shall be paid to the Trustee as soon as practicable and shall be held in the Accounts of the Member, as determined by the Benefits Administration Committee. The Member shall be required to establish that such prior employer’s plan meets the qualification requirements under Section 401(a) of the Code; and no such trust-to-trust transfer shall be permitted unless the amount transferred is free of all defined benefit or money purchase characteristics and does not make the Plan a transferee plan under Section 401(a)(11)(B)(iii)(III) of the Code.
		
	4.7
	Member Roth Contributions.  


		
	(a)
	On or after February 1, 2015, a Member may elect to:


		
	(i)
	reduce his future Salary and to have the amount of such reduction contributed to the Plan by the Company; and


		
	(ii)
	designate the contribution irrevocably, at the time of the election, as a Roth Contribution that is being made in lieu of all or a portion of the Regular Before-Tax Savings or Catch-Up Contributions the Member is otherwise eligible to make under Section 4.1(a) or (b), respectively, of the Plan.


		
	(b)
	Roth Contributions shall:


		
	(i)
	be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.1(a) and (b) and Section 4.3 as if they were Before-Tax Savings;


		
	(ii)
	be includible in the Member’s income pursuant to section 402A of the Code; 


		
	(iii)
	be accounted for separately in accordance with Section 8.2; and




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 24





		
	(iv)
	together with any Regular Before-Tax Savings made on behalf of the Member, be subject to the limits imposed by Sections 4.1(c) and (d).



ARTICLE 5 
 
COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS
		
	5.1
	Company Matching Contributions


Except as otherwise provided in Appendix M, the Company, with respect to each eligible Member employed by it, shall contribute to the Trust a Company Matching Contribution in an amount equal to 50 percent of the Member’s Savings and Roth Contributions for each pay period; provided, however, that only the first 6 percent of the Member’s Salary will be eligible for such a Company Matching Contribution during each pay period so that the maximum Company Matching Contribution shall be 3 percent of the Member’s Salary. Company Matching Contributions will be applied first to a Member’s Before-Tax Savings. Any remaining Company Matching Contributions will be applied to the Member’s Roth Contributions and then to the Member’s After-Tax Savings.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 2012, if as of the last day of the Plan Year, the amount of Matching Contributions allocated to a Member for such Plan Year is less than 50 percent of the Member’s Savings and Roth Contributions up to 6 percent of the Member’s Salary for the Plan Year, the Company shall make a “true-up” Company Matching Contribution on behalf of such Member in an amount equal to the difference. The true-up Company Matching Contribution described in the preceding sentence shall also be made with respect to a Member who terminates employment during the Plan Year and such true-up Company Matching Contribution shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the end of the calendar year in which the Member terminates employment.
Company Matching Contributions shall be credited to the Member’s Company Matching Account.

Except as otherwise described in Appendix M, the Company shall contribute to the Trust Fund, with respect to each eligible Member employed by it, Company Core Contributions in the following amounts:

	With respect to a Member whose age plus Service as of the first day of the Plan Year total less than 50, the Company shall make Company Core Contributions each pay period equal to 3 percent of the Member’s Salary for such pay period.


		
	(ii)
	With respect to a Member whose age plus Service as of the first day of the Plan Year total 50 or more, the Company shall make Company Core Contributions each pay period equal to 4 percent of the Member’s Salary for such pay period.


For purposes of the preceding provisions, a Member’s age and Service shall be calculated on a basis uniformly applicable to all Members similarly situated as established by the Benefits Administration Committee.  Certain Members described in Appendices K and M are not eligible for Company Core Contributions.
Company Core Contributions shall be credited to the Member’s Company Core Account.
		
	(b)

Special Transition Contributions shall be credited to the Member’s Special Transition Contributions Account.
		
	(d)
	Qualified Nonelective Contributions


The Company may make “qualified nonelective contribution” to the Plan pursuant to the provisions of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System. Any such contributions shall be held in a separate account, which shall be considered an “Account” as defined in Section 2.1. Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, a Member may direct the investment of the amounts held in such separate account in the same manner as Special Company Contributions and all or a portion of such separate account shall be available for withdrawal under the provisions of Section 9.2 (as the last available source), provided the Member has attained age 591⁄2 as of the proposed Withdrawal Valuation Date.  If any account holding qualified nonelective contributions and associated investment gains or losses was transferred to the Plan from a Merged Frozen Plan, a Merged Hartzell Plan, a Merged Plan, the Merged Bargained Plan, or the Merged Industrial Process Plan, the funds in such account shall be held for the Member or Deferred Member in the separate account described in this paragraph.
		
	5.3
	Mode of Payment of Company Contributions


Company contributions under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall be made in cash.
		
	5.4
	Maximum Annual Additions.


		
	(a)
	The annual addition to a Member’s Accounts for any Plan Year, which shall be considered the “limitation year” for purposes of Section 415 of the Code, when added to the Member’s annual addition for that Plan Year under any other qualified defined contribution plan of the Company or any Associated Company, shall not exceed an amount which is equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of his Statutory Compensation for that Plan Year, or (ii) $40,000, as adjusted in accordance with Section 415(d) of the Code.


		
	(b)
	For purposes of this Section, the “annual addition” to a Member’s Accounts under this Plan or any other qualified defined contribution plan (including a deemed qualified defined contribution plan under a qualified defined benefit plan) maintained by the Company or an Associated Company shall be determined in accordance with (i) and (ii) below.


		
	(i)
	The annual addition shall include all of the following amounts that have been allocated to the Member’s Accounts under this Plan or any other qualified defined contribution plan (including a deemed qualified defined contribution plan under a qualified defined benefit plan) maintained by the Company or an Associated Company:


		
	(A)
	the total Company contributions made on the Member’s behalf by the Company and all Associated Companies, including any Company Matching Contributions distributed or forfeited under the provisions of Section 4.1 or 4.5;


		
	(B)
	all Before-Tax Savings, Roth Contributions, and After-Tax Savings, including Before-Tax Savings and/or Roth Contributions distributed as excess contributions under Section 4.1(d) and After-Tax Savings distributed as excess aggregate contributions under the provisions of Section 4.5;


		
	(C)
	forfeitures, if applicable; and


		
	(D)
	solely for purposes of the dollar limit under clause (ii) of paragraph (a) above, amounts described in Sections 415(1)(1) and 419A(d)(2) of the Code allocated to the Member.

	(ii)
	The annual addition shall not include:


		
	(A)
	Rollover Contributions;


		
	(B)
	loan repayments made under Article 10;


		
	(C)
	Before Tax Savings and/or Roth Contributions distributed as excess deferrals under Section 4.1(c); and


		
	(D)
	Catch-Up Contributions.


		
	(c)
	To the extent that the annual additions to a Member’s Accounts exceed the limitation set forth in Section 415(c)(2) of the Code, corrections shall be made in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System as set forth in Revenue Procedure 2008-50 or any subsequent guidance. In the event that a Member of the Plan is a participant in any other defined contribution plan (whether or not terminated), maintained by the Company or any Associated Company, the total amount of annual additions to such Member’s accounts under all such defined contribution plans shall not exceed the limitations set forth in this Section 5.4. The Benefits Administration Committee, under uniform rules equally applicable to similarly situated Members, shall determine how to apply the provisions of this Section in order to satisfy the limitation. In making its decision, the Benefits Administration Committee shall take into account the applicable provisions of the other qualified defined contribution plans.


		
	5.5
	Contributions for a Period in Uniformed Services


		
	(a)
	Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits, and service credit with respect to qualified uniformed service duty will be provided in accordance with Section 414(u) of the Code. A Member who is reemployed and is credited with Service for the purpose of vesting because of a period of service in the uniformed services of the United States may elect to contribute to the Plan the Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contributions (including Catch-Up Contributions) and/or After-Tax Savings that could have been contributed to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan had he remained continuously employed by the Company throughout such period of absence (“make-up contributions”). For purposes of determining the amount of make-up contributions a Member may make, his Salary for the period of absence shall be deemed to be the rate of Salary he would have received had he remained employed as an Employee for that period or, if such rate is not reasonably certain, on the basis of the Member’s Salary during the 12-month period immediately preceding such period of absence (or if shorter, the period of employment immediately preceding such period). Any Before-Tax Savings, Roth Contributions, Catch-Up Contributions, and/or After-Tax Savings so determined shall be limited as provided in Sections 4.1(c), 4.1(d) and 4.5 with respect to the Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate rather than the Plan Year in which payment is made. The make-up contributions may be made over a period not to exceed three times the period of military leave or five years, if less, but in no event later than the Member’s Termination of Employment (unless he is subsequently rehired). The make-up period shall start on the later of (i) the Member’s date of reemployment, or (ii) the date the Benefits Administration Committee notifies the Employee of his rights under this Section.  Earnings (or losses) on make-up contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the make-up contribution is made.


		
	(b)
	With respect to a Member who makes the election described in paragraph (a) above, the Company shall make Company Matching Contributions on the make-up contributions in the amount described in Section 5.1, as in effect for the Plan Year to which such make-up contributions relate. Company Matching Contributions under this paragraph shall be made to the Plan at the same time as Company Matching Contributions are required to be made for Before-Tax Savings, Roth Contributions, and/or After-Tax Savings made during the same period as the make-up contributions are actually made. Earnings (or losses) on Company Matching Contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the contributions are made. Any limitations on Company Matching Contributions described in Section 4.5 shall be applied with respect to the Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate rather than the Plan Year or Years in which payment is made.




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 27





		
	(c)
	The Company shall make Company Core Contributions, Special Company Contributions, and Special Transition Contributions (and any other non-matching employer contributions that may have been required under a predecessor plan) (“make-up Company contributions”) in the amounts described in Section 5.2 (or the provisions of a predecessor plan) as in effect for the Plan Year to which such make-up Company contributions relate. For purposes of determining the amount of such make-up Company contributions, a Member’s Salary for the period of absence shall be deemed to be the rate of Salary he would have received had he remained employed as an Employee for that period or, if such rate is not reasonably certain, on the basis of the Member’s Salary during the 12-month period immediately preceding such period of absence (or if shorter, the period of employment immediately preceding such period). Make-up Company contributions under this paragraph shall be made as soon as practicable after the Member’s reemployment and shall be deemed to have been made to the Plan at the same time as such contributions would have been made but for the Member’s absence. Earnings (or losses) on make-up Company contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the make-up Company contributions are made.


		
	(d)
	All contributions under this Section, other than make-up Catch-Up Contributions, are considered “annual additions,” as defined in Section 415(c)(2) of the Code, and shall be limited in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4 with respect to the Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate rather than the Plan Year in which payment is made.


		
	(e)
	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, the maximum amount of make-up contributions made by or on behalf of a Member shall be reduced by the actual amount of Company Core Contributions, Special Company Contributions, Special Transition Contributions, Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contributions (including Catch-Up Contributions), After-Tax Savings, and Company Matching Contributions, as applicable, made by or on behalf of the Member during his period of service in the uniformed services as a result of differential wage payments (as defined in Section 3401(h) of the Code) that were made to the Member or for any other reason.


		
	5.6
	Return of Contributions


		
	(a)
	If the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, on timely application made after the initial establishment of the Plan, determines that the Plan is not qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code or refuses, in writing, to issue a determination as to whether the Plan is so qualified, the Company’s contributions made on or after the date on which that determination or refusal is applicable shall be returned to the Company. The return shall be made within one year after the denial of qualification. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply only if the application for the determination is made by the date prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.


		
	(b)
	If all or part of the Company’s deductions for contributions to the Plan are disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the portion of the contributions to which that disallowance applies shall be returned to the Company without interest but reduced by any investment loss attributable to those contributions, provided that the contribution is returned within one year after the disallowance of deduction. For this purpose, all contributions made by the Company are expressly declared to be conditioned upon their deductibility under Section 404 of the Code.


		
	(c)
	The Company may recover, without interest, the amount of its contributions to the Plan made on account of a mistake of fact, reduced by any investment loss attributable to those contributions, if recovery is made within one year after the date of those contributions.


		
	(d)
	In the event that Before-Tax Savings made under Section 4.1(a) and/or Roth Contributions made under Section 4.7 are returned to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the elections to reduce Salary that were made by Members on whose behalf those contributions were made shall be void retroactively to the beginning of the period for which those contributions were made. The Before-Tax Savings and/or Roth Contributions so returned shall be distributed in cash to those Members for whom those contributions were made, provided, however, that if the contributions are returned under the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the amount of Before-Tax Savings and/or Roth Contributions to be distributed to Members shall be adjusted to reflect any investment gains or losses attributable to those contributions.

	5.7
	Contributions Not Contingent Upon Profits


The Company may make contributions to the Plan without regard to the existence or the amount of current and accumulated Company earnings and profits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, this Plan is designed to qualify as a “profit-sharing plan” for all purposes of the Code.



ARTICLE 6 
 
VESTED SHARE OF ACCOUNTS
		
	6.1
	Full Vesting of all Accounts in Plan


Except as provided otherwise in Appendix I, J, K, or L, a Member shall at all times be 100 percent vested in, and have a nonforfeitable right to, his Accounts in the Plan.



ARTICLE 7 
 
INVESTMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS
		
	7.1
	Investment Funds


		
	(a)
	Accounts in the Plan shall be invested by the Trustee in one or more Investment Funds as authorized by the PFTIC. Such Investment Funds shall include:


		
	(i)
	the ITT Stock Fund;


		
	(ii)
	such Target Retirement Funds as the PFTIC shall select; and


		
	(iii)
	for such period after October 31, 2011 as shall be determined by the PFTIC, the Exelis Stock Fund and the Xylem Stock Fund.


Such Investment Funds may also include equity funds, international equity funds, fixed income funds, money market funds, and other funds as the PFTIC elects to offer.
		
	(b)
	In addition to the Investment Funds selected by the PFTIC, a Member may establish a self-directed brokerage account (“SDA”), subject to the following terms and conditions:


		
	(i)
	Common stock of ITT is not a permitted investment in the SDA.


		
	(ii)
	Account fees associated with a Member’s SDA, as well as commissions, special handling fees, and any other transaction charges associated with transactions in the Member’s SDA will be charged to the Member’s SDA.


		
	(c)
	In any Investment Fund, the Trustee temporarily may hold cash or make short-term investments in obligations of the United States Government, commercial paper, an interim investment fund for tax-qualified employee benefit plans established by the Trustee, unless otherwise provided in the applicable trust agreement or by applicable law, or other investments of a short-term nature. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee in its discretion may hold such amounts in cash, consistent with its obligations as Trustee, as it deems advisable in accordance with the provisions of the trust agreement.


		
	(d)
	For the purpose of determining the value of ITT Stock, Exelis Stock, or Xylem Stock hereunder, in the event such stock is traded on a national securities exchange, such stock shall be valued as of the closing quoted selling price of such stock on the New York Stock Exchange composite tape on the business day such stock is delivered to the Trustee. In the event such ITT Stock, ITT Exelis Stock, or Xylem Stock is not traded on a national securities exchange, such shares shall be valued in good faith by an independent appraiser selected 




 EXHIBIT 10.15

by the Trustee and meeting requirements similar to those in the regulations prescribed under Section 170(a)(1) of the Code.
		
	(e)
	The Plan is intended to constitute a plan described in Section 404(c) of ERISA. Consequently, each Member is solely responsible for the selection of his investment options. The Trustees, the Benefits Administration Committee, the Company, the PFTIC, and the officers, supervisors, and other employees of the Company are not empowered to advise a Member as to the manner in which his Accounts shall be invested. The fact that an Investment Fund is available to Members for investment under the Plan shall not be construed as a recommendation for investment in the Investment Fund.


		
	(f)
	The Trustee, or such other custodian as the PFTIC may designate, shall maintain the ITT Stock Fund. It is specifically contemplated that the ITT Stock Fund will operate as an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) that is designed to invest primarily in ITT Stock, within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code. Consistent with the ITT Stock Fund’s status as an ESOP, the Trustee may keep such amounts of cash, securities or other property as it, in its sole discretion, shall deem necessary or advisable as part of the Trust Fund, all within the limitations specified in the trust agreement.


		
	(g)
	Dividends, interest, and other distributions received on the assets held by the Trustee in respect to the Investment Funds shall be reinvested in the respective Investment Fund, provided, however, with respect to the ITT Stock Fund, dividends, interest, and other distributions received on the assets held by the Trustee in respect to the ITT Stock Fund shall be reinvested in the ITT Stock Fund, except as otherwise may be provided in Section 8.8 with respect to dividends on ITT Stock.


		
	7.2
	Investment of Contributions


Subject to special provisions described in Appendices J, K, and L for certain prior participants in the Merged Plans, the Merged Bargained Plan, and the Merged Hartzell Plans, respectively, contributions under the Plan shall be invested by the Trustee as follows:
		
	(a)
	Subject to the following provisions of this Section 7.2, a Member shall make one investment election, in multiples of 1%, covering his Savings, Roth Contributions, Company Matching Contributions, Company Core Contributions, Special Company Contributions, and Special Transition Contributions made to his Accounts, to have such amounts invested in any one or more of the Investment Funds. If no investment election is made, such contribution shall be invested in the Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the Member’s year of birth (or such other Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC), unless and until the Member elects to have all or part of his contributions invested in or transferred to other funds pursuant to Sections 7.3 and 7.4.


		
	(b)
	A Member cannot elect to direct the investment of any contributions into the Exelis Stock Fund or the Xylem Stock Fund prospectively. Amounts invested in the Exelis Stock Fund or the Xylem Stock Fund as a result of the restructuring of ITT coincident with the establishment of the Plan are the only amounts that may be invested in such funds. A Member may elect at any time to direct the amounts invested in the Exelis Stock Fund or the Xylem Stock Fund into any other Investment Fund in the Plan, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.2 and Section 7.4.


		
	(c)
	Except as provided in Section 7.4(d), no more than 20% of a Member’s Accounts may be invested in the ITT Stock Fund. A Member’s investment election with respect to future contributions cannot direct more than 20% to be invested in the ITT Stock Fund.


		
	(d)
	Contributions may not be initially invested in a Member’s SDA. Any amounts to be invested in a Member’s SDA must be transferred into the SDA pursuant to Section 7.4.


		
	(e)
	A Member making a Rollover Contribution pursuant to Section 4.4 or a transfer contribution pursuant to Section 4.6 may make a separate initial investment election under this Section 7.2. Such Rollover Contribution or transfer contribution shall be invested, in multiples of 1%, in any one or more of the Investment Funds as elected by the Member. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Rollover Contributions or transfer contributions may not be initially invested in the ITT Stock Fund, the Exelis Stock Fund, Xylem Stock Fund, 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 30





or a Member’s SDA. A Member may subsequently transfer or reallocate his Rollover Contributions or transfer contributions to the ITT Stock Fund or the Member’s SDA pursuant to Section 7.4. If a Member has not made an election with respect to the initial investment of his Rollover Contributions or transfer contributions under Section 4.6, such Rollover Contributions or transfer contributions shall be invested in the Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the Member’s year of birth (or such other Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC).
		
	(f)
	A Member may enroll in a managed account program under which investment professionals will monitor the Member’s Plan Accounts and manage all investment elections and transactions. The terms of the program shall supersede any contrary provisions of this Plan with respect to Members enrolled therein and any fees charged to the Member will be determined under the terms of the program.


		
	(g)
	A Member’s Prior ESOP Account shall be invested entirely in the ITT Stock Fund, Exelis Stock Fund, and Xylem Stock Fund, as applicable, except when a Member elects to have all or part of his Prior ESOP Account transferred to or invested in another Investment Fund pursuant to this Article 7.


		
	7.3
	Changes in Investment Election for Future Contributions


On any business day, by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose, a Member may change his investment election within the limitations set forth in Section 7.2 with respect to future Savings, Roth Contributions, Company Matching, Company Core, Special Company Contributions, and Special Transition Contributions to be made for any payroll deposited with the Trustee on or after the effective date of such notice. The effective date of such election shall be the business day following the date of the election. A Member shall be permitted to make only one investment election, covering his Savings, Roth Contributions, Company Matching, Company Core, Special Company Contributions, and Special Transition Contributions. A separate election may be made for future Rollover Contributions or transferred contributions made under Section 4.6.
		
	7.4
	Redistribution of Investments


Members and Deferred Members may redistribute their investments as follows:
		
	(a)
	On any business day, by making an advance election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose, a Member or Deferred Member may elect to reallocate (or transfer, as the case may be) on any Valuation Date all or part, in multiples of 1%, all of his Accounts among the Investment Funds, provided however no more than 20% of a Member’s Accounts may be invested in the SDA or the ITT Stock Fund after such reallocation or transfer and no amounts may be reallocated or transferred into the Exelis Stock Fund or the Xylem Stock Fund, except as provided in Section 7.4(d). The reallocation or transfer shall be effective as soon as administratively practicable after the Valuation Date.


		
	(b)
	The PFTIC may establish such rules and restrictions regarding the redistribution of investments as it deems appropriate, including restrictions on the maximum number of transfers in a calendar month.


		
	(c)
	Any amounts invested in a fund of guaranteed investment contracts or an investment fund covered by a prospectus or other document of similar import or effect shall be subject to any and all terms of such contracts, prospectus or other documents of similar import or effect, including any limitations therein placed on the exercise of any rights otherwise granted to a Member or Deferred Member under any other provisions of this Plan with respect to such amounts.


		
	(d)
	No more than 20% of a Member’s Accounts may be invested in the ITT Stock Fund. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence: 


		
	(i)
	a Member with more than 20% of his Accounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund under the ISP on October 31, 2011 (or such other date as may be designated by the PFTIC) may elect to direct that amounts invested in the Exelis Stock Fund and/or the Xylem Stock Fund be transferred to the ITT Stock Fund without regard to the 20% limit, provided however that such Member may not make any further investments in, or transfers into, the ITT Stock Fund until the 20% limitation described in the preceding sentence has been complied with.




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 31





		
	(ii)
	a Member with more than 20% of his accounts invested in a Merged Plan as of January 1, 2009, in the Merged Bargained Plan as of February 1, 2010, or in a Merged Frozen Plan as of October 31, 2011, shall not be required to transfer such pre-January 1, 2009, pre-February 1, 2010, or pre-October 31, 2011 (as applicable) account balance in excess of 20% out of the ITT Stock Fund.  If any such Member has 20% or more of his Accounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund, (A) no amounts can be transferred or reallocated from another Investment Fund under the Plan to the ITT Stock Fund, and (B) no future Company contributions can be invested in the ITT Stock Fund.


		
	7.5
	Valuation Date


The Valuation Date applicable with respect to reallocations made in accordance with Section 7.4 shall be the business day such election is received and processed by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee and shall not be later than the next business day following the day on which the Member’s completed request is received and processed by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.
		
	7.6
	Voting of ITT Stock


Each Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary (in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member) is, for the purposes of this Section 7.6, hereby designated a named fiduciary within the meaning of Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA with respect to the shares of ITT Stock allocated to his Accounts, determined as herein described. Each Member and Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member) may direct the Trustee as to the manner in which the ITT Stock allocated to his Accounts, determined as herein described, is to be voted. An individual’s proportionate share of the ITT Stock Fund as to which he holds fiduciary status for voting purposes shall be determined at the time such voting rights are exercisable by multiplying the number of shares credited at that time to such portion by a fraction, the numerator of which is the value (as of the Valuation Date designated by the Benefits Administration Committee for this purpose) of that part of the individual’s Accounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund with respect to which the individual provides instructions to the Trustee and the denominator of which is the aggregate value of all amounts allocated to that part of all Member Accounts which is invested in the ITT Stock Fund for which instructions are provided to the Trustee. Before each annual or special meeting of shareholders of ITT, each Member, Deferred Member, and Beneficiary shall be furnished with information regarding how to obtain a copy of the proxy solicitation material for such meeting and the form requesting instructions to the Trustee on how to vote the ITT Stock allocated to such Member’s, Deferred Member’s and Beneficiary’s Accounts. Upon receipt of such instructions, the Trustee shall vote such shares as instructed. In lieu of voting fractional shares as instructed by Members, Deferred Members, or Beneficiaries, the Trustee may vote the combined fractional shares of ITT Stock to the extent possible to reflect the directions of Members, Deferred Members, or Beneficiaries with allocated fractional shares of each class of stock. The Trustee shall vote shares of ITT Stock allocated to Accounts under the Plan but for which the Trustee received no valid voting instructions in the same manner and in the same proportion as the shares of ITT Stock in the Accounts in the respective funds with respect to which the Trustee received valid voting instructions are voted. Instructions to the Trustee shall be in such form and pursuant to such regulations as the Benefits Administration Committee may prescribe.
Any instructions received by the Trustee from Members, Deferred Members, and Beneficiaries regarding the voting of ITT Stock shall be confidential and shall not be divulged by the Trustee to the Company, or to any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, it being the intent of this provision of this Section 7.6 to ensure that the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) cannot determine the voting instructions given by any Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary.
In the event of a tender or exchange offer, the provisions of Article 15 shall control, rather than this Section.
		
	7.7
	Blackout Periods


Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, when required for administrative reasons, the Benefits Administration Committee may temporarily suspend, limit, or restrict the rights of Members, Deferred Members, Beneficiaries or alternate payees (as applicable) to direct or diversify the investment of some or all of their Accounts, to obtain loans from the Plan, and to obtain distributions (including in-service withdrawals) from the Plan. The number and length of such suspensions and the imposition of such limitations or restrictions shall be limited to the greatest extent practicable. Any suspension, limitation or restriction of rights under this Section shall comply with all applicable law and any guidance issued thereunder and may be imposed only if the Benefits Administration Committee timely provides notice of the suspension, limitation or restriction of such rights, as required by Section 101 of ERISA, any guidance issued thereunder, and any other applicable law.


 EXHIBIT 10.15

	7.8
	Diversification Requirements


The Plan shall comply with the diversification requirements of Section 401(a)(35) of the Code and regulations thereunder with respect to amounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund.  In this respect, available investment options other than the ITT Stock Fund into which amounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund may be reallocated at the election of the Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary shall include no fewer than three investment options, each of which shall be diversified and have materially different risk and return characteristics (within the meaning of applicable regulations).  In addition, the opportunity to make such reallocation from the ITT Stock Fund to such other investment options shall be reasonable and periodic, occurring not less frequently than quarterly, and no direct or indirect restrictions or conditions that are prohibited under Section 401(a)(35)(D)(ii)(II) of the Code and regulations thereunder shall be imposed.

For purposes of this Article 8, “business day” means each day on which the New York Stock Exchange or any successor to its business is open for trading or such other day(s) as may be designated by the PFTIC.

At the end of each business day, the Trustee shall determine the total fair market value of all assets then held by it in each Investment Fund. The Benefits Administration Committee reserves the right to change from time to time the procedures used in valuing the Accounts or crediting (or debiting) the Accounts if it determines, after due deliberation and upon the advice of counsel and/or the current recordkeeper, that such an action is justified in that it results in a more accurate reflection of the fair market value of assets. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Article and such new administrative procedures, those new administrative procedures shall prevail.
		
	8.7
	Allocation of Assets


At the end of each business day when the value of all assets in each Investment Fund has been determined pursuant to Section 8.6, the Trustee shall determine the gain or loss in the value of such assets in each of the Investment Funds. Such gain or loss shall be allocated pro rata by Investment Fund to the balances credited to the Accounts of all Members and Deferred Members as of such business day.
		
	8.8
	Dividends Paid with respect to Stock in the ESOP


Dividends with respect to Exelis Stock and Xylem Stock shall be reinvested in the Exelis Stock Fund and Xylem Stock Fund, respectively. Dividends with respect to ITT Stock shall be subject to the following provisions:
		
	(a)
	Dividend Election


A Member or Deferred Member may elect, with respect to a dividend paid on ITT Stock in the ESOP as of the record date of such dividend, to have the dividend either distributed in cash to the Member or Deferred Member or reinvested in shares of ITT Stock. The Savings Plan Administrator shall prescribe rules regarding the timing and manner of a dividend election.
		
	(b)
	Default Election


In the absence of an affirmative dividend election, the Member or Deferred Member shall be deemed to have elected to have the dividend reinvested in ITT Stock.
		
	(c)
	Effect and Duration of Election


An election made in accordance with (a) or (b) above shall remain in effect until changed by the Member or Deferred Member in accordance with the rules established by the Savings Plan Administrator. The election shall apply to all dividends with a record date on or after the election date.
A Member or Deferred Member may change his dividend election at any time in the manner prescribed by the Savings Plan Administrator.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Section to the contrary, in the event that two or more dividend checks payable to a Member or Deferred Member remain uncashed at one time, that action shall be deemed as an election by the Member or Deferred Member to have his dividends reinvested in ITT Stock in the Plan and the Savings Plan Administrator shall reinvest any further dividends payable to the Member or Deferred Member until the Member or Deferred Member cashes the outstanding checks and makes another affirmative election to receive his dividends in cash.
		
	(d)
	Cash Payment


Dividends elected to be paid in cash shall be distributed to the Member or Deferred Member as soon as administratively practicable after the dividend is received by the Trustee in the Trust Fund. The amount of cash dividends distributed shall be reduced by the amount of any losses attributable to such dividends while held in the Trust Fund. No earnings attributable to such dividends shall be distributed.

ARTICLE 9
 
WITHDRAWALS PRIOR TO TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
		
	9.1
	General Conditions for Withdrawals


At any time before Termination of Employment, a Member may request a withdrawal from his Vested Share of his Accounts by submitting to the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee, and shall conform to the standards set by the Benefits Administration Committee, if any, regarding minimum and maximum amounts of withdrawals. Any such withdrawal shall be in accordance with the conditions of Section 9.2 or Section 9.3. For purposes of this Article 9, a Member’s Accounts shall be valued as of the applicable Withdrawal Valuation Date. Amounts to be distributed to Members will not participate in the investment experience of the Plan after the Withdrawal Valuation Date. Such amounts generally will be paid as soon as administratively possible following the Withdrawal Valuation Date. Except where specifically provided otherwise, Savings and Roth Contributions by the Member under the Plan may be continued without interruption.
		
	9.2
	Withdrawals from Certain Accounts


Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, a Member (but not a Deferred Member) can withdraw amounts in any whole dollar amount or percentage less than or equal to the described value of his Vested Share of the following Accounts; provided, however, that the full withdrawable amount from each source from (a) through (h) below must be withdrawn before any amount can be withdrawn from the source next following on the list of sources from (a) through (h) below:
		
	(a)
	all or a portion of his After-Tax Account;

	(f)
	all or a portion of his Company Floor Account, Merged Employer Contributions Account, Merged Bargained Plan Matching Employer Contributions Account, Merged Matching Employer Contributions Account, and Prior Company Matching Account;


		
	(g)
	all or a portion of his Company Matching Account provided the Member has attained age 591⁄2 as of the proposed Withdrawal Valuation Date and all or portion of the amounts specified in Section G of Appendix M;


		
	(h)
	all or a portion of his Company Core Account or Industrial Process Transfer Contributions Account provided in each case that the Member has attained age 591⁄2 as of the proposed Withdrawal Valuation Date; 


		
	(i)
	all or a portion of his Special Company Contribution Account,  Special Transition Contributions Account or Industrial Process Transition Credit Account provided in each case that the Member has attained age 591⁄2 as of the proposed Withdrawal Valuation Date.


Effective September 4, 2018, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, a Member who, as of a Withdrawal Valuation Date, (i) has established a Total and Permanent Disability, (ii) has become eligible for a qualified reservist distribution as provided in Section 401(k)(2)(B)(i)(V) of the Code, or (iii) is deployed in the uniformed services as provided in Section 414(u)(12) of the Code may withdraw all or any portion of his Accounts. If a Member takes a withdrawal pursuant to (iii) above, the Member may not make Before-Tax Savings, Roth Contributions, or After-Tax Savings under the Plan during the six-month period beginning on the date of the withdrawal.


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 35





Withdrawals will be deemed to be deducted from each of the Investment Funds described in Article 7 on a pro rata basis, provided, however, that amounts invested in a Member’s SDA are not available as a source of any withdrawals described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Member may reallocate his balance in the SDA to the other Investment Funds in the Plan as provided in Article 7 and such Investment Funds may then be available as a source for withdrawals in accordance with the provisions of this Article 9.
		
	9.3
	Withdrawal from Before-Tax Account, Roth Account, or Roth Rollover Account


		
	(a)
	Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.1, a Member who, as of a Withdrawal Valuation Date, has attained age 591⁄2 may withdraw all or any portion of his Before-Tax Account or Roth Account; provided, however, that the full withdrawable amount from each source listed in (a) through (i) of Section 9.1 must be withdrawn before any amount can be withdrawn pursuant to this Section 9.3(a). 


		
	(b)
	Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, a Member who has not qualified for a withdrawal under Section 9.3(a) as of a Withdrawal Valuation Date and who has withdrawn all amounts available under Section 9.2 may withdraw all or a portion of his Before-Tax Account, Roth Account, and/or Roth Rollover Account (except for the portion that represents investment earnings credited to his Before-Tax Account and/or Roth Account, as applicable) provided he has an immediate and heavy financial need and the withdrawal is necessary to satisfy such need, as provided below. If a Member has not withdrawn all amounts available under Section 9.2, he must take a separate withdrawal of the amounts available under Section 9.2 and that withdrawal shall not be treated as a withdrawal due to hardship.


		
	(i)
	As a condition for receiving a withdrawal pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.3(b), there must exist with respect to the Member an immediate and heavy financial need to draw upon his Accounts. For purposes of this subparagraph (b), the Benefits Administration Committee shall presume the existence of an immediate and heavy financial need if the requested withdrawal is on account of any of the following:


		
	(A)
	expenses for (or necessary to obtain) medical care that would be deductible under Section 213(d) of the Code (determined without regard to whether the expenses exceed 7.5 percent of adjusted gross income);


		
	(B)
	costs directly related to the purchase of a principal residence of the Member (excluding mortgage payments);


		
	(C)
	payment of tuition and related educational fees, and room and board expenses, for the next 12 months of post-secondary education of the Member, his spouse, children or dependents (as defined in Section 152 of the Code and determined without regard to Sections 152(b)(1), (b)(2) and (d)(1)(B) of the Code);


		
	(D)
	payment of amounts necessary to prevent eviction of the Member from his principal residence or to avoid foreclosure on the mortgage of his principal residence;


		
	(E)
	payments for burial or funeral expenses for the Member’s deceased parent, spouse, children or dependents (as defined in Section 152 of the Code and without regard to Section 152(d)(1)(B) of the Code);


		
	(F)
	expenses for the repair of damages to the Member’s principal residence that would qualify for the casualty deduction under Section 165 of the Code (determined without regard to whether the loss exceeds 10 percent of the Member’s adjusted gross income); or


		
	(G)
	the inability of the Member to meet such other expenses, debts, or other obligations recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as giving rise to immediate and heavy financial need for purposes of Section 401(k) of the Code.


The amount of the withdrawal may not be in excess of the amount of the financial need of the Member, including an additional amount equal to 20 percent of the amount otherwise needed to satisfy such financial 


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 36





need to pay any federal, state, or local taxes and any amounts necessary to pay any penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the hardship distribution.
		
	(ii)
	As a condition for receiving a withdrawal pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.3(b), the Member must demonstrate that the requested withdrawal is necessary to satisfy the financial need described in (i) above. For purposes of this subparagraph, the Benefits Administration Committee shall presume that the withdrawal is necessary to satisfy the immediate and heavy financial need if the following requirements are met:


		
	(A)
	The Member has obtained all distributions (other than hardship distributions) available under all other retirement plans maintained by the Company and all Associated Companies, including this Plan and including distribution of all cash dividends currently available to the Member under Section 8.8 of the Plan and all non-taxable loans available under all retirement plans maintained by the Company and all Associated Companies, including this Plan, provided that the loan repayments do not result in an additional financial hardship for the Member.


		
	(B)
	The Member agrees to cease all Before-Tax Savings, Roth Contributions, and After-Tax Savings under this Plan and under any other plans of the Company or of any Associated Company for a period of not less than six months following the hardship withdrawal.


The Benefits Administration Committee or its designee shall make determinations of financial hardship in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner, with reference to all the relevant facts and circumstances and in accordance with applicable tax law under Section 401(k) of the Code.
		
	9.4
	Form of Payment


Withdrawal payments shall be made in the form of cash, except that the Member may request to receive the portion of his Accounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund to be paid in shares of ITT Stock, with any fractional shares being paid in cash.
		
	9.5
	Death after Withdrawal Election


If a Member elects a withdrawal and dies after the issuance of the check(s) or shares of ITT Stock comprising such withdrawal but prior to negotiation of such check(s) comprising all or a portion of such distribution, then any unpaid cash portion of the withdrawal as represented by the non-negotiated check(s) shall be paid to his estate. If more than one check comprises such withdrawal and the Member negotiates the first check but dies prior to the issuance of any subsequent check, then any subsequent check shall be paid to his estate. If a Member elects a withdrawal and dies prior to the issuance of any check(s) or shares of ITT Stock comprising such withdrawal, then the withdrawal election shall be voided.
		
	9.6
	Direct Rollover


Certain withdrawals or portions thereof paid pursuant to this Article 9 may be “eligible rollover distributions” as defined and discussed in Section 11.7 and are governed with respect thereto by such Section.



ARTICLE 10
 
LOANS
		
	10.1
	General Conditions for Loans


Subject to the restrictions in this Article 10, at any time before Termination of Employment, a Member may file an application in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee requesting a loan from his Accounts. By filing the loan forms, the Member:
		
	(a)
	specifies the amount and the term of the loan;




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 37





		
	(b)
	agrees to the annual percentage rate of interest;


		
	(c)
	agrees to the finance charge;


		
	(d)
	promises to repay the loan; and


		
	(e)
	authorizes the Company to make regular payroll deductions to repay the loan, with the loan repayments computed based on the frequency of the Member’s payroll payments.


The Member shall certify in such application as to the existence and amount of any outstanding loans (including any loans deemed distributed) from any qualified plans maintained by the Company and all Associated Companies.
If at the time a loan is to be issued to a Member a prior loan has been deemed distributed to the Member and not repaid, a new loan may only be issued to a Member if the Member repays the unpaid loan balance, including accrued interest to the date of repayment.
To the extent required by law and under such rules as the Benefits Administration Committee shall adopt, loans shall also be made available on a reasonably equivalent basis to any Beneficiary or former Employee who maintains an account balance under the Plan and who is still a party-in-interest (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA).
		
	10.2
	Amounts Available for Loans


A Member may request a loan in any specified whole dollar amount which must be at least $1,000 but which, when added to the outstanding balance of any other loans to the Member from this Plan or any other qualified plan of the Company or any Associated Company, including the amount of any unpaid deemed loan distribution and accrued interest thereon, does not exceed the lesser of:
		
	(a)
	50% of his Vested Share of his Accounts; or


		
	(b)
	$50,000, reduced by the excess of (i) the Member’s highest outstanding loan balance(s) from this Plan or any other plan sponsored by the Company or any Associated Company, if any, during the one-year period ending on the day before the day the loan is made, over (ii) the outstanding balance of loans to the Member from such plans on the date on which the loan is made.


For purposes of determining amounts actually available for loans, a Member's Accounts shall be determined based on the Loan Valuation Date at the time he files his loan request with the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.
		
	10.3
	Account Ordering for Loans


For purposes of processing a loan, the amount of such loan will be deducted from the Member’s Accounts in the order set by the Benefits Administration Committee under loan rules.
A loan is deducted from a Member’s Accounts as of the Loan Valuation Date. Amounts so deducted and distributed to a Member as a Plan loan will not participate in the investment experience of the Plan except as such amounts are repaid to the Member’s Accounts. Loans will be deemed to be deducted from each of the Investment Funds on a pro rata basis, provided, however, that no amount shall be deemed to be deducted from the ITT Stock Fund until all amounts have been withdrawn from all of the other Investment Funds, and provided further that amounts invested in a Member’s SDA are not available as a source of any loans described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Member may reallocate his balance in the SDA to the other Investment Funds and such Investment Funds may then be available as a source for loans.
		
	10.4
	Interest Rate for Loans


The Benefits Administration Committee shall establish and communicate to Members a reasonable rate of interest for loans commensurate with the interest rates charged by persons in the business of lending money for loans which would be made under similar circumstances, as determined by the Benefits Administration Committee, which interest rate shall remain in effect for 


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 38





the term of the loan, except that with respect to a Member who enters the uniformed services of the United States, the Member may elect to have the interest rate applicable to the unpaid loan balance during the period of leave reduced to 6%.
		
	10.5
	Term and Repayment of Loan


		
	(a)
	The term of any loan shall be for a period of from 1 to 60 whole months, at the election of the Member, provided that a Member who is using a loan to acquire his own principal residence may elect to repay a loan over a period of whole months between 1 and 180. Except as provided in (b) or (c) below, payments of principal and interest will be made by after-tax payroll deductions or in a manner agreed to by the Member and the Benefits Administration Committee in substantially level amounts, but no less frequently than quarterly, in an amount sufficient to amortize the loan over the repayment period. A Member who is actively employed by the Company cannot elect to cease payroll deductions for repayment of a loan. Except as set forth below with respect to Members who enter the uniformed services of the United States, no extension of the loan term shall be permitted after the loan is made. Repayment of the loan is made to the Member’s Accounts from which the loan amount was deducted in the inverse order to the Account Ordering for Loans described in Section 10.3; provided, however, that if a Member’s loan is funded in part by an amount attributable to his Roth Account and/or Roth Rollover Account, a proportionate share of each of the Member’s loan payments shall be allocated to the Member’s Roth Account and/or Roth Rollover Account, as applicable. Repayments are invested in the Member’s Accounts in accordance with his current investment election. Loan repayments are not credited with investment experience under the Plan until the first business day following the day on which such repayments are received by the Trust Fund.


		
	(b)
	If a Member with an outstanding loan takes a leave of absence to enter the uniformed services of the United States, and such Member will receive military differential wage payments (as defined in Section 3401(h) of the Code) in an amount equal to or greater than his loan repayment, his after-tax payroll deduction loan repayments shall continue during such leave of absence. If a Member with an outstanding loan takes a leave of absence to enter the uniformed services of the United States and such Member will not receive military differential wage payments sufficient to cover his loan repayments, his after-tax payroll deduction loan repayments shall be suspended during the period of leave unless the Member elects to make payments directly by certified check or money order. If payments are suspended, upon the Member’s reemployment from the uniformed services, the period of repayment shall be extended by the number of months of the period of service in the uniformed services or, if greater, the number of months that would remain if the original loan term were five years plus the number of months in the period of absence; provided, however, if the Member incurs a Termination of Employment and requests a distribution pursuant to Article 11, the loan shall be canceled, and the outstanding loan balance shall be distributed pursuant to Article 11. The Member shall resume payments in the same amount as before the leave with the balance of the loan (including any interest that accrued during the period of uniformed service) due upon the expiration of the repayment period. Alternatively, the Member may elect to have the remaining balance (including any interest that accrued during the period of uniformed service) reamortized in substantially level installments over the extended term of the loan.


		
	(c)
	If a Member with an outstanding loan takes an authorized leave of absence without pay or reduced pay that is less than the required loan payments, for reasons other than to enter the uniformed services of the United States, the Member shall pay any loan payments that become due during such leave directly to the Plan, in the form and manner and at such time as may be prescribed by the Benefit Administration Committee.


		
	10.6
	Frequency of Loan Requests


A Member may have no more than two loans outstanding at any time. Each loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note payable to the Plan.
		
	10.7
	Prepayment of Loans


A Member may prepay the entire outstanding balance of a loan, with interest to date of prepayment except as provided under Section 10.8, at any time. Partial prepayments are not permitted.


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 39





		
	10.8
	Outstanding Loan Balance at Termination of Employment


Upon a Member’s Termination of Employment, the Deferred Member may continue to make periodic repayments of his outstanding loans provided that his Accounts plus his loan balance at the time of his Termination of Employment is greater than $5,000, and provided further that if the Deferred Member requests a distribution of his remaining Accounts pursuant to Article 11, the unpaid loan balance shall be treated as an offset distribution.  Effective with loans approved on or after January 1, 2014, a Member will no longer be permitted to continue to make loan repayments after the Member’s Termination of Employment.
If a Deferred Member fails to pay the loan balance in full or make loan repayments in accordance with Section 10.5, the Benefits Administration Committee may execute upon its security interest in the Member’s Accounts under the Plan to satisfy the debt; provided, however, the Plan shall not levy against amounts held in the Member’s Accounts until such time as a distribution of such Accounts could otherwise be made under the Plan.
		
	10.9
	Loan Default


Under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, a Member’s failure to make timely loan repayments, the Benefits Administration Committee may declare the Member’s loan to be in default. If a Member’s loan is not repaid in accordance with the terms contained in the promissory note and a default occurs, the Plan may execute upon its security interest in the Member’s Accounts under the Plan to satisfy the debt; provided, however, the Plan shall not levy against amounts held in the Member’s Accounts until such time as a distribution of such Accounts could otherwise be made under the Plan.
		
	10.10
	Incorporation by Reference


Any additional rules or restrictions as may be necessary to implement and administer Plan loans shall be in writing and communicated to Members. Such further documentation is hereby incorporated into the Plan by reference, and, pursuant to Section 13.3, the Benefits Administration Committee is hereby authorized to make such revisions to these rules, as it deems necessary or appropriate on the advice of counsel.
		
	10.11
	Death after Loan Application


If a Member applies for a loan and dies after a check for the loan amount has been issued but prior to negotiation of the check, then the loan shall be paid to his estate or voided, at the option of the Benefits Administration Committee. If a Member applies for a loan and dies before the check for the loan amount is issued, then the loan application shall be voided.
		
	10.12
	Transfer of Loans


The Benefits Administration Committee may designate that the Plan will accept the transfer of a loan from another qualified retirement plan on behalf of a Member who becomes an Employee as a result of an acquisition by ITT or the Company.  Loans were transferred for prior participants in the Merged Frozen Plans, the Merged Plans, the Merged Bargained Plan, the Merged Hartzell Plans, and the Merged Industrial Process Plan as set forth in Appendices I, J, K, L, and M, respectively.



ARTICLE 11 
 
DISTRIBUTIONS
		
	11.1
	General


		
	(a)
	Upon Termination of Employment, a Member may apply for distribution of the value of his Vested Share of his Accounts. Alternatively, upon Termination of Employment, a Member whose Vested Share of his Accounts exceeds $5,000 may elect to defer distribution of his Vested Share of his Accounts until December 31 of the year in which he attains age 701⁄2. If a Member terminates employment with no Vested Share in his Accounts, he shall be deemed to have received a full distribution of his benefit at the time of his Termination of Employment. If a Member whose Vested Share of his Accounts exceeds $5,000 does not apply for a distribution of his Vested Share of his Accounts within 90 days of his Termination of Employment, he shall be deemed to be a Deferred Member. A Deferred Member may elect a partial distribution of any portion of his Vested Share of his Accounts in a lump sum amount at any time, and from time to time, after his Termination of Employment, 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 40





provided said Deferred Member is not receiving installment payments pursuant to an election under Section 11.3. All distributions under this Section 11.1(a) will be deemed to be deducted from each of the Deferred Member’s Investment Funds on a pro rata basis, provided, however, that amounts invested in an SDA are not available as a source of any partial distributions described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Deferred Member may reallocate the balance in his SDA to other Investment Funds in the Plan as provided in Article 7 and such Investment Funds may then be available as a source for partial distributions under this Section.
		
	(b)
	Upon the death of a Member or Deferred Member, the value of the Vested Share of such Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts shall be distributed to his Beneficiary, subject to the following:


		
	(i)
	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not the spouse of such Member or Deferred Member, the Vested Share of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts shall be distributed to the Beneficiary in accordance with said Beneficiary’s election under Section 11.3; provided the entire value of the Vested Share of the Member’s Accounts is distributed no later than five years from the Member’s or Deferred Member’s date of death. Such nonspouse Beneficiary may also elect partial distributions of the Member’s benefit in lump sums from time to time during this five-year period, provided that the entire value of the Vested Share of the Member’s Accounts is distributed no later than five years from the Member’s or Deferred Member’s date of death.


		
	(ii)
	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is his spouse and the value of the Accounts to be distributed to the spouse Beneficiary exceeds $5,000, such spouse Beneficiary may elect to defer receipt of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts until the December 31 Valuation Date of the year in which the Member or Deferred Member would have reached age 701⁄2. If a spouse Beneficiary’s Accounts exceed $5,000 and the spouse Beneficiary does not apply for a distribution of his Accounts within 90 days of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death, such spouse Beneficiary will be deemed to be a Deferred Member. Such spouse Beneficiary will receive distribution of the Accounts as of the date the Member or Deferred Member would have attained age 65, provided such spouse Beneficiary files application for such distribution. A spouse Beneficiary may, however, file application for distribution of such Accounts at any time prior to the December 31 Valuation Date of the year in which the Member or Deferred Member would have reached age 701⁄2. In addition to the methods of distribution in Section 11.3, a spouse Beneficiary of a deceased Member or Deferred Member may elect a partial distribution of any portion of his Accounts in a lump-sum amount at any time, and from time to time and subject to the provisions of (a) above.


		
	(c)
	Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, distributions shall commence as follows:


		
	(i)
	A Member or Deferred Member who is a “5-percent owner” as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code must commence distribution of his Accounts no later than December 31 of the year in which he attains age 701⁄2.


		
	(ii)
	A Member or Deferred Member who is not a “5-percent owner” as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code must commence distribution of his Accounts after his Termination of Employment by December 31 of the later of the calendar year in which the Member attains age 701⁄2 or the calendar year in which the Member’s Termination of Employment occurs.


		
	(iii)
	The Accounts of a Member or a Deferred Member who has attained age 701⁄2 and is required to commence distribution under this paragraph shall be paid under the payment method described in Section 11.3(c)(ii) below if the Member or Deferred Member does not apply for distribution and elect a form of payment before payments are required to commence. 


		
	(d)
	Notwithstanding the provisions of (a), (b), or (c), above, or Section 11.3 below, a Member or Deferred Member (or Beneficiary) may elect to commence distribution of the value of the Vested Share of the Member’s Accounts held in the ESOP portion of the Plan not later than one year after the end of the Plan Year:


		
	(i)
	in which the Member separates from service on or after attaining age 65 or by reason of Disability or death; or




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 41





		
	(ii)
	which is the fifth Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Member otherwise separates from service, unless the Member is reemployed by the Company or any Associated Company before such year.


		
	(e)
	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Member or Deferred Member fails to file a claim for benefits in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Member or Deferred Member shall be deemed to have elected to defer distribution of his Accounts to as soon as administratively practicable following the date the Member terminated employment or attained age 701⁄2, if later; provided that in no event shall payment commence later than the April 1 following the calendar year in which the Member terminated employment or attained age 701⁄2, if later.


		
	11.2
	Valuation Date and Conditions of Distribution


		
	(a)
	The value of any distribution will be determined as of the Valuation Date on which a completed application for the distribution by the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary is received and processed by the Savings Plan Administrator (or its designee) or the next business day.


		
	(b)
	Application by the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary must be in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee or its designee.


		
	(c)
	Generally, all funds distributed will be paid as soon as practicable following the applicable Valuation Date. If part of the distribution is to be paid in stock, the stock certificate will be distributed after the check representing the cash distribution has been distributed.


		
	11.3
	Methods of Distribution


After Termination of Employment occurs, and as soon as practicable following application by the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary, distributions under the Plan shall be made in the following manner:
		
	(a)
	All distributions from other than the ITT Stock Fund shall be made in cash.


		
	(b)
	Unless the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary elects to take ITT Stock for distributions from the ITT Stock Fund, a distribution from such fund shall be in cash. In all cases, fractional shares shall be paid in cash.


		
	(c)
	All distributions shall be made in the form of a lump sum payment, unless the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary elects otherwise, as provided below. All distributions shall be made as soon as practicable after receipt of the application by the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary in accordance with Section 11.2(b). However, with prior notice in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee, distribution may be made in one of the installment methods of payment described in (i) or (ii) below, subject to the restrictions provided below or in Section 11.1(b).


		
	(i)
	Provided the value of the Vested Share of the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts is at least $5,000, and the first payment is at least $1,000, by payment in annual installments over a period elected by the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary. The period over which annual installments may be paid may not exceed the life expectancy of the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary, or if the Member or Deferred Member (for this purpose Deferred Member does not include a spouse Beneficiary) is married, and so elects, the joint life expectancy of the Member or Deferred Member and the Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse. All such installments shall be determined as follows:


		
	(A)
	The amount of the annual installments to be paid to each Member or Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death) making such an election shall be based upon the value of the Vested Share of his Accounts as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or next following the date of receipt by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee of his completed application and each anniversary thereof, and shall be determined by multiplying 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 42





such value by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be one and the denominator of which shall be the number of unpaid annual installments.
		
	(B)
	Any Member or Deferred Member who is no more than 70 years old and who elects annual installment payments may, at any time thereafter, elect, by filing a request with the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee, to cancel annual installment payments. The Valuation Date applicable to such election shall be the business day coinciding with or next following the date on which his completed request is received and processed by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee. Such Member or Deferred Member may at any time thereafter, make another payment election under the Plan, provided that he may elect only a lump sum payment or partial distributions.


		
	(C)
	If a Member or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not his spouse, and the Member is deceased, annual installment payments to such Beneficiary may not extend beyond the end of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the death of the Member or Deferred Member.


		
	(ii)
	Provided the value of the Vested Share of the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts is at least $5,000, and the first payment is at least $1,000, by payment in annual installments over the Member’s or Deferred Member’s life expectancy or, if the Member or Deferred Member is married, and so elects, over the joint life expectancies of the Member or Deferred Member and the Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse, as actuarially determined at the time of commencement of the initial installment and as redetermined annually thereafter. The amount of such installments will be based on the value of the Vested Share of his Accounts as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or next following the date of receipt by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee of his application and each anniversary thereof, and shall be determined by multiplying such value by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be one and the denominator of which shall be the number of years and fraction thereof of his life expectancy based on his age and the mortality table adopted by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose at the time the installment is payable. Any Member or Deferred Member who is no more than 70 years old and who elects annual installment payments over his life expectancy may at any time thereafter elect to cancel such payments by filing a request with the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee. Such Member or Deferred Member may, at any time thereafter, make another payment election under the Plan. Life expectancy installments described in this paragraph are not available to a Beneficiary who is not the spouse of a Member or Deferred Member.


Installment payments under (i) or (ii) above shall be made in the form of ITT Stock or cash, or both, as provided in (a) and (b), above.
		
	(d)
	If a Member or Deferred Member elects a distribution other than installments as provided in (c)(i) or (c)(ii) above and the Member or Deferred Member dies after the Valuation Date applicable to such distribution but prior to negotiation of any check(s) comprising any portion of such distribution, then the distribution otherwise payable in cash shall be paid to his estate. If more than one check comprises the cash portion of such distribution and the Member or Deferred Member negotiates the first check but dies prior to the negotiation of any subsequent check, then any subsequent check shall be paid to his estate. If a Member or Deferred Member elects a distribution and the Member or Deferred Member dies prior to the Valuation Date applicable to such distribution, then the distribution shall be paid to his Beneficiary.


		
	(e)
	If a Member or Deferred Member elects installment distributions as provided in (c)(i) or (c)(ii) above and the Member or Deferred Member dies before all the installments are paid, then the following provisions shall apply:


		
	(i)
	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not his spouse, and if an installment is paid with a Valuation Date that occurred prior to the date of death of the Member or Deferred Member and prior to the Member’s or Deferred Member’s negotiation of the check 




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 43





comprising all or a portion of such installment, then such installment (or portion thereof) shall be paid to his estate; the remaining value of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts shall be paid to his Beneficiary at one time.
		
	(ii)
	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not his spouse, such Beneficiary may request annual installment payments, provided that the number of installments does not extend beyond the end of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the death of the Member or Deferred Member.


		
	(iii)
	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is his spouse, then such spouse Beneficiary may continue receiving payment of the deceased Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts pursuant to the same method of distribution elected by the Member or Deferred Member, except that the spouse’s life expectancy shall be substituted for the life expectancy of the Member. The spouse Beneficiary may, at any time while receiving payment of such Accounts, elect, by filing a request with the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee, to cancel installment payments. Such spouse Beneficiary may at any time thereafter, elect a lump sum payment or partial distributions, subject to the provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.


		
	(f)
	The Vested Share of the Accounts of a Member who, following Termination of Employment, fails to apply for distribution of such Accounts, shall be paid in cash (or, if the Member so elects shares of ITT Stock) in the form of a lump sum payment, provided that the value of the Vested Share of such Accounts is $5,000 or less on a Valuation Date no earlier than the next business day following his Termination of Employment, without regard to the value of the Member’s Accounts at the time of an earlier distribution.


In the event a Member who is subject to the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph and whose Vested Share of his Accounts is in excess of $1,000 fails to make an affirmative election to either receive the lump sum payment in cash or have it directly rolled over to an eligible retirement plan pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.7 within such election period as shall be prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee, the Benefits Administration Committee shall direct the Trustee to transfer such lump sum payment to an individual retirement plan (within the meaning of Section 7701(c)(37) of the Code) (“IRA”) selected by the PFTIC; provided, however, that, for purposes of applying the $1,000-threshold, a Member’s Roth Account and Roth Rollover Account and the remainder of the Member’s Accounts shall be treated as held under two separate plans. The IRA shall be maintained for the exclusive benefit of the Member on whose behalf such transfer is made. The transfer shall occur as soon as practicable following the end of the election period. The funds in the IRA shall be invested in an investment product designed to preserve principal and provide a reasonable rate of return, whether or not such return is guaranteed, consistent with liquidity, as determined from time to time by the PFTIC. In implementing the provisions of this paragraph, the Benefits Administration Committee and/or the PFTIC as appropriate pursuant to the terms of this paragraph, shall:
		
	(i)
	enter into a written agreement with each IRA provider setting forth the terms and conditions applicable to the establishment and maintenance of the IRA in conformity with applicable law;


		
	(ii)
	furnish Members with notice of the Plan’s automatic rollover provisions, including, but not limited to, a description of the nature of the investment product in which the assets of the IRA will be invested and how the fees and expenses attendant to the IRA will be allocated, and a statement that a Member may roll over the assets of the IRA to another eligible retirement plan. Such notice shall be provided to Members in such time and form as shall be prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee in accordance with applicable law;


		
	(iii)
	keep records, when appropriate, of a Member’s after-tax basis in the amount transferred to the IRA; and


		
	(iv)
	fulfill such other requirements of the safe harbor contained in Department of Labor Regulation §2550.404a-2 and, if applicable, the conditions of Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 2004-16.




 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 44





Alternative methods of distribution may apply to that portion of a Member’s or a Deferred Member’s Accounts attributable to a Prior Plan Account, as specified in the applicable appendices to the Plan.
		
	11.4
	Death of Beneficiary


Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, upon the death of a Beneficiary with Accounts remaining in the Plan, the remaining value of all such Accounts shall be paid in a lump sum distribution within one year of the Beneficiary’s death to the Beneficiary selected by the Beneficiary, if any, or if no such Beneficiary has been named by the Beneficiary, the remaining value of all such Accounts shall be paid in a lump sum distribution within one year of the Beneficiary’s death to the estate of the Beneficiary.
		
	11.5
	Proof of Death and Right of Beneficiary or Other Person


The Benefits Administration Committee may require and rely on such proof of death and such evidence of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the undistributed value of the Accounts of a deceased Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary as the Benefits Administration Committee may deem proper, and its determination of death and of the right of such Beneficiary or other person to receive payment shall be conclusive. Payment to any Beneficiary shall be final and fully satisfy and discharge the obligation of the Plan with respect to any and all Accounts of a deceased Member or Deferred Member.
In the event of a dispute regarding the account of a deceased Member or Deferred Member, the Benefits Administration Committee may make a final determination, or initiate or participate in any action or proceeding as may be necessary or appropriate to determine any Beneficiary under the Plan.
During the pendency of any action or proceeding, the Benefits Administration Committee may deposit an amount equal to the disputed payment with the court and such deposit shall relieve the Plan of all of its obligations with respect to any such disputed Accounts. Alternatively the Benefits Administration Committee, at its discretion, may direct any disputed accounts be invested in the Stable Value Fund or such other as designated by the PFTIC pending the resolution of any dispute regarding a deceased Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts.
		
	11.6
	Completion of Appropriate Notice


Except as provided in this Section, if the value the Vested Share of a Member’s Accounts exceeds $5,000, an election by the Member or Deferred Member (for this purpose Deferred Member does not include a spouse Beneficiary) to receive a distribution prior to age 65 shall not be valid unless the written election is made after the Member or Deferred Member has received the notice required under Section 1.411(a)-11(c) of the Income Tax Regulations and within a reasonable time before the effective date of the commencement of the distribution as prescribed by said regulations. Such distribution may commence less than 30 days after the notice required under Section 1.411(a)-11(c) of the Income Tax Regulations is given, provided that:
		
	(a)
	the Benefits Administration Committee clearly informs the Member that he has a right to a period of at least 30 days after receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a particular distribution option); and


		
	(b)
	the Member, after receiving the notice under Sections 411 and 417 of the Code, affirmatively elects a distribution.


The Benefits Administration Committee may permit any notices to be given electronically, in accordance with procedures to be established in the Benefits Administration Committee’s sole discretion.
		
	11.7
	Direct Rollover of Certain Distributions


Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, with respect to any withdrawal or distribution from this Plan pursuant to Article 9 or this Article 11 which is determined by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee to be an “eligible rollover distribution,” the distributee may elect, at the time and in a manner prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose, to have the Plan make a “direct rollover” of all or part of such withdrawal or distribution to a maximum of two “eligible retirement plans” which accept such rollover.

	(b)
	Status of Elective Transfer as Distribution


The transfer of Accounts pursuant to the elective transfer rules of this Section generally is not treated as a distribution for purposes of Section 401(a) of the Code (except to the extent the Member is eligible to receive a full distribution of his Accounts under this Plan on the date of the transfer). In all cases, however, the transfer is not treated as a distribution for purposes of the minimum distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.

For a Member who is a 5-percent owner in active service, the first distribution calendar year is the calendar year in which the Member attains age 701⁄2. For a Member who is not a 5-percent owner, the first distribution calendar year is the later of the calendar year in which the Member attains age 701⁄2 or the year in which the Member terminates employment.


		
	(iii)

In addition, where the number of persons is deemed to be substantial, the Benefits Administration Committee shall have the further right to exercise such powers as may be delegated to the Benefits Administration Committee by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE 14 
 
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
		
	14.1
	Amendment of Plan


The Board of Directors or its delegate 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; provided that no such modification or amendment (a) shall make it possible for any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Members, Deferred Members and Beneficiaries; or (b) shall increase the duties of the Trustee without its consent thereto in writing, other than to comport with changes in the Code, ERISA or the rules thereunder. Except as may be required to conform with governmental regulations, no such amendment shall adversely affect the rights of any Member or Deferred Member with respect to contributions made on his behalf prior to the date of such amendment.
However, no amendment shall make it possible for any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled to benefits under the Plan. Except to the extent permitted under Section 411(d)(6) of the Code and regulations issued thereunder, no amendment shall be made which has the effect of decreasing the balance of the Accounts of any Member or Deferred Member or of reducing the nonforfeitable percentage of the balance of the Accounts of a Member or Deferred Member below the nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan as in effect on the date on which the amendment is adopted, or if later, the date on which the amendment becomes effective. In addition, no amendment shall be made that has the effect of eliminating or restricting an optional form of benefit to the extent it is protected under Section 411(d)(6) of the Code.
		
	14.2
	Termination of Plan


		
	(a)
	The Plan is entirely voluntary. The Board of Directors reserves the right at any time to terminate the Plan or to suspend, reduce or partially or completely discontinue contributions thereto. In the event of such termination or partial termination of the Plan or complete discontinuance of contributions, the interests of Members and Deferred Members shall automatically become nonforfeitable.


		
	(b)
	Upon termination of the Plan, Before-Tax Savings and/or Roth Contributions, with earnings thereon, shall only be distributed to Members if (i) neither the Company nor an Associated Company establishes or maintains a successor defined contribution plan, and (ii) payment is made to the Members in the form of a lump sum distribution (as defined in Section 402(e)(4)(D) of the Code, without regard to subclauses (I) through (IV) of clause (i) thereof). For purposes of this paragraph, a “successor defined contribution plan” is a defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code (“ESOP”) or a simplified employee pension as defined in Section 408(k) of the Code (“SEP”)) which exists at the time the Plan is terminated or within the 12-month period beginning on the date all assets are distributed. However, in no event shall a defined contribution plan be deemed a successor plan if fewer than 2 percent of the employees who are eligible to participate in the Plan at the time of its termination are or were eligible to participate under another defined contribution plan of the Company or an Associated Company (other than an ESOP or a SEP, as herein defined) at any time during the period beginning 12 months before and ending 12 months after the date of the Plan’s termination.


		
	14.3
	Merger or Consolidation of Plan


The Board of Directors or its delegate may, in its sole discretion, merge this Plan with another qualified plan or transfer a portion of the Plan’s assets or liabilities to another qualified plan, subject to any applicable legal requirement. The Plan may not be merged or consolidated with, nor may its assets or liabilities be transferred to, any other plan unless each Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary under the Plan would, if the resulting plan were then terminated, receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer if the Plan had then terminated.

ARTICLE 15 
 
TENDER OFFER
		
	15.1
	Applicability


The provisions of this Article 15 shall apply in the event any person, either alone or in conjunction with others, makes a tender offer, or exchange offer, or otherwise offers to purchase or solicits an offer to sell to such person one percent or more of the outstanding shares of a class of ITT Stock held by the Trustee hereunder (herein jointly and severally referred to as a “tender offer”). As to any tender offer, each Member and Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member) shall have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the Plan will be tendered.
		
	15.2
	Instructions to Trustee


In the event a tender offer for ITT Stock is commenced, the Benefits Administration Committee, promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of such tender offer, shall transfer certain of its recordkeeping functions to an independent recordkeeper. The functions so transferred shall be those necessary to preserve the confidentiality of any directions given by the Members and Deferred Members (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member) in connection with the tender offer. The Trustee may not take any action in response to a tender offer except as otherwise provided in this Article 15. Each Member, Deferred Member, and Beneficiary is, for all purposes of this Article 15, hereby designated a named fiduciary within the meaning of Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA with respect to the shares of ITT Stock allocated to his Accounts, determined as herein described. An individual’s proportionate share of the ITT Stock Fund as to which he holds fiduciary status for purposes of responding to a tender or exchange offer shall be determined at the time such fiduciary rights are exercisable by multiplying the number of shares credited at that time to the ITT Stock Fund by a fraction, the numerator of which is the value (as of the Valuation Date designated by the Benefits Administration Committee for this purpose) of that part of the individual’s Accounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund and the denominator of which is the aggregate value of all amounts allocated to the ITT Stock Fund. Each Member and Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member) may direct the Trustee to sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the ITT Stock allocated to any such individual’s Accounts in accordance with the provisions, conditions and terms of such tender offer and the provisions of this Article 15, provided, however, that such directions shall be confidential and shall not be divulged by the Trustee or independent recordkeeper to the Company or to any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, it being the intent of this provision of Section 15.2 to ensure that the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) cannot determine the direction given by any Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary. Such instructions shall be in such form and shall be filed in such manner and at such time as the Trustee may prescribe. The confidentiality provision of this Section shall likewise apply to the directions given to, and actions taken by, the Trustee pursuant to Section 15.5.
		
	15.3
	Trustee Action on Member Instructions


The Trustee shall sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the ITT Stock allocated to the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts with respect to which it has received directions to do so under this Article 15 or as provided in Section 15.5. The proceeds of a disposition directed by a Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary from his Accounts under this Article 15 shall be allocated to such individual’s Accounts and be governed by the provisions of Section 15.5 or other applicable provisions of the Plan and the trust agreements established under the Plan.
		
	15.4
	Action With Respect to Members Not Instructing the Trustee or Not Issuing Valid Instructions


To the extent to which Members, Deferred Members and Beneficiaries do not issue valid directions to the Trustee to sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the ITT Stock allocated to their Accounts, such individuals shall be deemed to have directed the Trustee that such shares remain invested in ITT Stock subject to all provisions of the Plan, including Section 15.5 and the trust agreements established under the Plan.
		
	15.5
	Investment of Plan Assets after Tender Offer


To the extent possible, the proceeds of a disposition of ITT Stock in an individual’s Accounts shall be reinvested in ITT Stock by the Trustee as expeditiously as possible in the exercise of the Trustee’s fiduciary responsibility and shall otherwise be held by the Trustee subject to the provisions of the trust agreement, the Plan and any applicable note or loan agreement. In the event that ITT Stock is no longer available to be acquired following a tender offer, the Company may direct the substitution of new 


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 54





employer securities for the ITT Stock or for the proceeds of any disposition of ITT Stock. Pending the substitution of new employer securities or the termination of the Plan and trust, the Trust Fund shall be invested in such securities as the Trustee shall determine; provided, however, that, pending such investment, the Trustee shall invest the cash proceeds in short-term securities issued by the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof or any other investments of a short-term nature, including corporate obligations or participations therein and interim collective or common investment funds.



ARTICLE 16 
 
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
		
	16.1
	Relief from Liability


The Plan is intended to constitute a Plan as described in Section 404(c) of ERISA and Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations Section 2550.404c-1. The Plan fiduciaries are relieved of any liability for any losses that are the direct and necessary result of investment instructions given by any Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary.
		
	16.2
	Payment of Expenses


		
	(a)
	Direct charges and expenses arising out of the purchase or sale of securities and taxes levied on or measured by such transactions, and any investment management fees, with respect to any Investment Fund, may be paid in part by the Company. Any such charges, expenses, taxes and fees not paid by the Company shall be paid from the Investment Fund with respect to which they are incurred.


		
	(b)
	An annual charge to the Trust Fund of up to 0.25% of the market value of the assets held by such Trust Fund may be charged and applied to satisfy expenses incurred in conjunction with Plan administration, including, but not limited to, Trustee, recordkeeping, and audit fees; the Company shall pay all other expenses reasonably incurred in administering the Plan, including expenses of the Benefits Administration Committee, the PFTIC and the Trustee, such compensation to the Trustee as from time to time may be agreed between the PFTIC and Trustee, fees for legal services, any investment management fees not paid pursuant to Section 16.2(a), and all taxes, if any.


		
	16.3
	Source of Payment


Benefits under the Plan shall be payable only out of the Trust Fund, and the Company shall not have any legal obligation, responsibility or liability to make any direct payment of benefits under the Plan. Neither the Company nor the Trustee guarantees the Trust Fund against any loss or depreciation or guarantees the payment of any benefit hereunder. No person shall have any rights under the Plan with respect to the Trust Fund, or against the Company, except as specifically provided for herein.
		
	16.4
	Inalienability of Benefits


Except as specifically provided in the Plan or as Section 401(a)(13) of the Code or other applicable law may otherwise require or as may be required under the terms of a qualified domestic relations order, no benefit under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempts so to do shall be void, nor shall any such benefit be in any manner liable for or subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the person entitled to such benefit; and in the event that the Benefits Administration Committee shall find that any attempt has been made to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any of the benefits under the Plan of any Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary who is or may become entitled to benefits hereunder, except as specifically provided in the Plan or as applicable law may otherwise require, then such benefit shall cease and terminate, and in that event the Benefits Administration Committee shall hold or apply the same to or for the benefit of such Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary who is or may become entitled to benefits hereunder, his spouse, children, parents or other blood relatives, or any of them.
A Member’s benefit under the Plan shall be offset or reduced by the amount the Member is required to pay to the Plan under the circumstances set forth in Section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code.
A Member’s benefit under the Plan shall be distributed as required because of the enforcement of a federal tax levy made pursuant to Section 6331 of the Code or the collection by the United States on a judgment resulting from an unpaid tax assessment.

	16.5
	No Right to Employment


Nothing herein contained nor any action taken under the provisions hereof shall be construed as giving any Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company.
		
	16.6
	Prevention of Escheat


Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Benefits Administration Committee is unable to locate any person to whom a payment is due under the Plan or any person fails to present a check for payment in a timely manner, the amount due such person shall be forfeited at such time as the Benefits Administration Committee shall determine in its sole discretion and pursuant to nondiscriminatory rules established for that purpose (but in all events prior to the time such payment would otherwise escheat under any applicable State law). If, however, such a person later files a claim for such payment before the Plan is terminated, the benefit will be reinstated and payment made without any interest earned thereon.
All forfeitures under the Plan that are not expressly provided for herein shall be used to reduce future Company contributions or pay Plan expenses.
		
	16.7
	Uniform Action


Action by the Benefits Administration Committee shall be uniform in nature as applied to all persons similarly situated, and no such action shall be taken which will discriminate in favor of any Members who are Highly Compensated Employees.
		
	16.8
	Headings


The headings of the sections in this Plan are placed herein for convenience of reference and in the case of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such headings, shall control.
		
	16.9
	Use of Pronouns


The masculine pronouns as used herein shall be equally applicable to both men and women, and words used in the singular are intended to include the plural, whenever appropriate.
		
	16.10

ARTICLE 18 
 
QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS

Within a reasonable period of time after the receipt of a certified copy of a Domestic Relations Order (or any modification thereof), the Benefits Administration Committee or its designee shall determine whether such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. The Benefits Administration Committee shall have full and complete discretion to determine whether a domestic relations order constitutes a qualified domestic relations order and whether the Alternate Payee otherwise qualifies for benefits hereunder.
		
	18.4
	Establishment of Segregated Accounts and Payment Procedures


		
	(a)
	Separate Account for Deferred Amounts


If a Domestic Relations Order has been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order in accordance with Section 18.3, a separate account for the benefits of the Alternate Payee named in such order shall be established.
		
	(b)
	Temporary Holding Account


If, during any period in which the issue of (i) whether a Domestic Relations Order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or (ii) whether a proposed Domestic Relations Order would, if it were perfected as a Domestic Relations Order, be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order is being determined (by the Benefits Administration Committee, by a court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise), the Alternate Payee would be entitled to any payment if the order has been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, the Benefits Administration Committee shall separately account for, and may cause to be segregated in a separate account, all amounts which would have been payable to any Alternate Payee during such period if such order had been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.


 EXHIBIT 10.15  
Page | 58





		
	(c)
	Payment from Temporary Holding Account in Certain Cases


If, by the expiration of the 18-month period beginning on the date the first payment would be required to be made to an Alternate Payee under a Domestic Relations Order, either it has been determined that a Domestic Relations Order is not a Qualified Domestic Relations Order or the issue as to whether such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order has not been resolved, the Benefits Administration Committee shall cause to be paid all amounts which have been segregated (or separately accounted for) by reason of such order pursuant to paragraph (b) above, including any earnings having accrued thereon, to the person or persons who would have been entitled to such amounts if there had been no order. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the Member or his or her Beneficiaries are not yet entitled, or have not elected, to receive benefit payments under the Plan, such amounts, including all earnings having accrued thereon, shall be restored to the Member’s Accounts and invested in accordance with the investment election most recently submitted by the Member pursuant to Section 7.4.
		
	(d)
	Payment from Separate Account and Temporary Holding Account to Alternate Payee of Order if Determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order


If a Domestic Relations Order (or any modification thereof) is determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, the Benefits Administration Committee shall instruct the Trustee to apply, on a prospective basis, the terms and provisions of such Qualified Domestic Relations Order, and, in the event any amounts were segregated (or separately accounted for) by reason of such order pursuant to paragraph (b) above, the Benefits Administration Committee shall cause to be paid in accordance with the provisions of the Plan all amounts which have been so segregated (and have not been released pursuant to paragraph (c)) (or separately accounted for), including any earnings having accrued thereon, to the Alternate Payee(s) entitled thereto.
		
	18.5
	Subsequent Determination or Order to be Applied Prospectively

	18.6
	Withdrawals, Distributions and Loans by or to Members.


		
	(a)
	Withdrawals and Distributions


A Member or Deferred Member shall not be permitted to withdraw from the Plan, nor shall there be distributed to a Member or Deferred Member, any amounts being held in a segregated account by reason of a Domestic Relations Order.
		
	(b)
	Loans


In determining the maximum amount of any loan to a Member pursuant to Article 10, the Benefits Administration Committee shall not include any portion of the Member’s Accounts being held in a segregated account (or being separately accounted for) by reason of a Domestic Relations Order.
		
	18.7
	Earliest Commencement Date


A Domestic Relations Order shall not fail to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order merely because it provides for distribution to the Alternate Payee prior to the Member’s Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the amount payable to the Alternate Payee under the Qualified Domestic Relations Order is less than $5,000, such amount shall be paid in one lump sum as soon as practicable following the qualification of the order. If the amount exceeds $5,000, it may be paid as soon as practicable following the qualification of the order if the Qualified Domestic Relations Order so provides and the Alternate Payee consents thereto; otherwise, it may not be payable before the earliest of the Member’s Termination of Employment, the time such amount could otherwise be withdrawn under the terms of this Plan, or the Member’s attainment of age 50.

2.    In installments at intervals not more frequently than once per calendar quarter over a period of years which does not extend beyond the Member’s or Deferred Member’s life expectancy, calculated as follows:
(i)    the fixed payment shall be determined annually at the time payments are to commence, and as of the first day of each succeeding Plan Year, by multiplying the amount transferred to the ISP from the Allis-Chalmers Plan by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator is the Member’s or Deferred Member’s life expectancy as of the date of such determination, as determined under Section 72 of the Code and the regulations thereunder; and

If an annuity form other than a qualified joint and survivor annuity is elected hereunder, such annuity may not be in a form that will provide for payments over a period extending beyond either the life of the Member or Deferred Member (or the lives of the Member or Deferred Member and his designated Beneficiary) or the life expectancy of the Member or Deferred Member (or the life expectancy of the Member or Deferred Member and his designated Beneficiary), and such other forms available under the annuity contract shall be so designed as to provide that at least 50 percent of the reserve that would be required to provide payments to the Member or Deferred Member in the normal form under the Plan will be applied to him over his normal life expectancy.
The Company shall cause the contract to be assigned or delivered to the person or persons then entitled to payment under it. Before the assignment or delivery of an annuity contract, such contract shall be rendered nontransferable except by surrender to the issuing insurance company.

Page | 72





on December 31, 2013, and who either (I) is an employee of the Company or an Associated Company on January 1, 2014 or (II) resumes employment as an employee of the Company or an Associated Company after January 1, 2014 and before incurring a Permanent Break in Service as defined in Section F below; and (2) to the Company Matching Account of a Member who is a Union Employee on or after January 1, 2014:


Years of Vesting Service    Portion of affected Account in which the Member is Vested


Less than 1                    0%
1 but less than 2                    33-1/3%
2 but less than 3                    66-2/3%
3 or more                    100%


In addition, a Member described in this Section E shall become fully vested in his Merged Bargained Plan Matching Employer Contributions Account and Company Matching Account upon the occurrence of the earliest of the following events while employed with the Company or an Associated Company:


(i) the Member’s death;
(ii) the Member’s attainment of age 65 (normal retirement age);
(iii) the establishment of the Member’s Permanent and Total Disability; or
(iv) transfer to employment in which he is an Employee other than a Union Employee.


For purposes of this Section E, “Years of Vesting Service” equal the sum of (I) Years of Service earned under the Plan after December 31, 2013, plus (II) “Years of Service” credited under the Merged Bargained Plan for vesting purposes as of December 31, 2013.


The non-vested portion of the accounts transferred to the Plan from the Merged Bargained Plan for a Prior Merged Bargained Plan Participant who is not credited with an Hour Worked after December 31, 2013 shall be permanently forfeited on the date such Prior Merged Bargained Plan Participant incurs a Permanent Break in Service as defined in Section F, below.


F.    Effect of Termination or Rehire on Vesting.  If a Member described in (1) or (2) of Section E, above, terminates employment with the Company and all Associated Companies before becoming fully vested in all of his Accounts under the Plan, the following rules shall apply: 


1.    That portion of any Account  in which the Member is not fully vested shall be accounted for separately from the Vested Share and shall be disposed of as provided in 2 and 3, below.  If prior to termination of employment the Member receives a distribution (including a withdrawal) from any Account in which he is not fully vested at the time, his Vested Share of such Account shall be an amount (“X”) determined by the following formula:


X = P (AB + D) - D


For purposes of the formula,:


P = The Member’s vested percentage of such Account on the date distribution is to be made.


AB = The balance of such Account as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date distribution is to be made.


D = The amount of all prior distributions from such Account.


2.     That portion of any Account that is not vested upon a Member’s termination of employment with the Company and all Associated Companies shall be disposed of a follows:


I.    If the Member has no Vested Share in any Account upon his termination, the Member’s Accounts shall be deemed to have been distributed to him upon termination.


II.    If the Member receives payment of his Vested Share of his Accounts because of his termination of participation, the non-vested balance remaining in the Member’s Accounts shall be forfeited and his Accounts closed as of the date the 


 EXHIBIT 10.15

actual distribution is made to the Member.  A distribution is deemed made because of a Member’s termination of participation in the Plan if it occurs prior to the end of the second Plan Year beginning on or after the Member’s termination of employment with the Company and all Associated Companies.


III.    If neither I nor II above applies, the non-vested portion of the Member’s Accounts shall continue to be held in such Accounts and shall not be forfeited until the date the Member incurs a Permanent Break in Service.  A “Permanent Break in Service” is a five-consecutive-year period beginning on a Member’s Severance Date during which the Member is not credited with an Hour Worked.


3.    Whenever the non-vested portion of a Member’s Accounts is forfeited in accordance with 2, above, the amount of such forfeiture shall be applied as described in Section 16.6 of the Plan.


4.    If a Member described in this Section F returns to employment with the Company or an Associated Company, his Years of Service for vesting purposes shall be determined as described in Section E; provided, however, that previously non-vested amounts shall be restored and become eligible to vest in the future only to the extent provided in 5, below.


5.    If a Member who forfeited the non-vested portion of his Accounts under subparagraph I or II of 2, above, is reemployed by the Company or an Associated Company, such forfeited amounts shall be recredited to the Member’s Accounts, without adjustment for interim gains and losses experienced by the Plan:


I.    If the Member returns to employment with the Company or an Associated Company before he incurs a Permanent Break in Service as defined in subparagraph III of 2, above, commencing after the date he received, or is deemed to have received, distribution of his Vested Share of his Accounts; and


II.    If he received a distribution from the Plan subsequent to his termination of employment, he repays the full amount of the distribution attributable to his Accounts that were not fully vested.


Funds needed in any Plan Year to recredit the Accounts of a Member with prior forfeitures shall come first from forfeitures that arise during such Plan Year or shall be provided by the Company by way of a separate contribution.  Repayments of forfeitures shall be invested in accordance with the Member’s investment election for new contributions under Section 7.2 of this Plan.  


G.    ADP and ACP Tests.  For any Plan Year in which at least one Union Employee is a Highly Compensated Employee, the ADP Test described in Section 4.1(d) of the Plan shall apply separately to Before-Tax Savings and Roth Contributions (other than Catch-Up Contributions) contributed for Union Employees for the Plan Year.  For After-Tax Savings and Company Matching Contributions made for or on behalf of Union Employees, the ACP test is deemed to be satisfied for all Plan Years pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(m)-1(b)(2).


H.    Repayment of Certain Withdrawals.  If a Prior Merged Bargained Plan Participant made a withdrawal from his matching employer contributions account under the Merged Bargained Plan that resulted in the forfeiture of a portion of such account, he shall be permitted to repay in full the amount received from his Merged Plan matching employer contributions account.  Such repayment may be made at any time while the Prior Merged Bargained Plan Participant is a Member and before the date the Prior Merged Bargained Plan Participant incurs a Permanent Break in Service (as defined in Section F, above).  Upon such repayment, the forfeited portion of the Prior Merged Bargained Plan Participant’s matching employer contributions account under the Merged Bargained Plan shall be restored at the value of such forfeited amount as of the date the withdrawal was distributed.  Any repaid amounts shall be invested in accordance with Section 7.2.
