    The John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
      Supplemental Plan (the "Supplemental Plan") was amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2009 to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code as enacted by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, and the regulations promulgated
      thereunder and again amended and restated to reflect all amendments through August 1, 2010. This amendment and restatement of the Supplemental Plan is effective as of January 1, 2014 (unless otherwise stated in the plan) and is intended to reflect
      all amendments through that date, including the amendments effective as of June 30, 2013 which froze plan participation and ceased all benefit accruals under said plan as of that date. This document sets forth the provisions of the Supplemental Plan
      as applicable to participants who commence payment of their supplemental benefits on or after June 30, 2013. Except as provided herein, events occurring prior to June 30, 2013 shall be governed by the terms of the Supplemental Plan in effect at the
      time the event occurred. The benefits accrued and vested under the provisions of the Supplemental Plan by a Participant who terminated employment with the Company and all its Affiliated Companies (as such terms are defined in the Retirement Plan)
      prior to January 1, 2005 shall be subject to the provisions of the Supplemental Plan as in effect on October 3, 2004. In addition, with respect to certain Participants who were employed by the Company on January 1, 2005, the portion of their benefits
      payable under this restated Supplemental Plan equal to their Grandfathered Supplemental Benefit (as defined herein) shall be subject to the provisions of the Supplemental Plan without regard to any amendments after October 3, 2004 which would
      constitute a material modification for Code Section 409A purposes.

    The purpose of the John
      Wiley & Sons, Inc. Supplemental Benefit Plan (the "Supplemental Plan") is to provide supplemental benefits to certain Participants in the John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Employees' Retirement Plan (the "Retirement Plan") whose benefits under the Retirement Plan are limited by the provisions of Section 4.08 of the
      Retirement Plan and Section 415(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and/or Section 1.12 of the Retirement Plan and Section 401(a)(17) of the Code. Supplemental benefits are provided hereunder as additional   deferred  
      compensation    for    services     rendered     by    the    Participant    to John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (the "Corporation"). Capitalized terms used in this Supplemental
      Plan which are not otherwise defined have the same meaning as under the Retirement Plan.

                this Section 5, which is to be paid in the form of a life annuity, into an optional benefit of Equivalent Actuarial value as provided in one of the options set forth below:

            


    

    

       

    Option 1. "Contingent Annuity". A modified benefit payable monthly during the
      Participant's life and after his death payable at 50%, 75% or 100% (as elected by the Participant) of the rate of his modified benefit during the life of, and to, the Beneficiary named by him on his Benefit Commencement Date.

    

       

    Option 2. "Pop-Up-Option". A modified benefit payable under Option 1, provided that in the
      event the Beneficiary named by the Participant at the time he elected the form of payment predeceases the Participant, the annual benefit payable to the Participant after the Beneficiary's death shall equal the Benefit that would have been payable
      pursuant to Section 5.2(a).

    Option 3.   "Certain & Life Option".   A modified benefit payable monthly for the life of the Participant; however if the Participant dies within the 10,
      11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 year period (as elected by the Participant) commencing on the Participant's Benefit Commencement Date' payments in that reduced amount will be payable
      to the Participant's Beneficiary until the 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15th anniversary of his Benefit Commencement Date.

    

       

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              Such Equivalent Actuarial value shall be defined as set forth in Item I of Appendix A of the Retirement Plan.

            


    

    

       

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, a Participant's election to receive the
                portion of his Supplemental Benefit payable under Section 4.1 in the form of a life annuity in an optional form as described in paragraph (b) above shall be effective as of the Benefit Commencement Date applicable to that portion of the
                Participant's benefit, provided that the Participant makes and submits to the Committee his election of such optional form prior to his Benefit Commencement Date.  A Participant who fails to elect an optional form of benefit payment in a
                timely manner shall receive his benefit in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section 5.2.

            


    

    

       

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3, a Participant's 409A Supplemental Disability
                Benefit determined under Section 4.2 shall be paid in a single lump sum payment equal to the then equivalent actuarial value of the 409A Supplemental Disability Benefit. For purposes of this clause (e),

            


    

    equivalent actuarial value shall be determined on the basis of the IRS Mortality Table (as defined in the Retirement Plan) and the IRS
      Interest Rate (as defined in the Retirement Plan) as published in the calendar month preceding the Participant’s Disability Date.

              Notwithstanding any Supplemental Plan provision to the contrary, payment of the 409A Supplemental Benefit payable to a
                Participant who is a member of the 1989 SERP on January 1, 2009, shall be paid in the same form as the Participant's 409A Additional Benefit, if any, (as defined in the 1989 SERP) is paid pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.5(b)(i) of
                the 1989 SERP. The 409A Supplemental Benefit paid under this Section shall be of Equivalent Actuarial value to the Participant's 409A Supplemental Benefit payable over his lifetime as determined under

            


    

    Section 4.1. For purposes of this Section 5.3(a) Equivalent Actuarial value shall be
      determined on the same basis as provided in Section 6.3. In the event any portion, of such Participant's 409A Supplemental Benefit is to be paid in the form of a life annuity, such Participant may elect in accordance with the provision of Sections 5.2(b) and 5.2(d) to convert such amount into an optional annuity form of payment.

    

       

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              (i) Notwithstanding any provision of the Supplemental Plan to the contrary, if a Participant who is entitled to a benefit under  Section  5.1 of
                the 2005 SERP has made an election under Section 5.l(a) of the 2005 SERP to receive such benefit in the form of a life annuity, the Participant's 409A Supplemental Disability  Benefit payable pursuant to Section 4.2 shall be paid in the
                form of a life annuity, unless the Participant has made a valid optional annuity form of payment election under Section 5.2 hereof.

            


    

    

       

    (ii) Notwithstanding any provision of the Supplemental Plan to the
      contrary, with respect to a Participant who is a member of the 1989 SERP as of January 1, 2005, any 409A Supplemental Disability Benefit payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2 to such Participant shall be paid in the same form as such
      Participant's 409A Additional Ben fit, if any, is paid to such Participant pursuant to Section 5.1 of the 1989 SERP. The benefit payable pursuant to this clause (ii) shall be of Actuarial Equivalent value (as defined in

                due to the death of the Participant prior to his Separation from Service, shall be paid in the same form as any Pre-Retirement Survivor Benefit attributable to such Participant's 409A Additional Benefit (as defined in the 1989 SERP) is paid
                under the SERP. The survivor benefit payable under this paragraph (c) shall be of Actuarial Equivalent value (as defined in Section 6.3) to the survivor benefit attributable to the Participant's 409A Supplemental Benefit that would have
                been payable for the life of the Designated Beneficiary.

              Timing of Payment for "Specified Employees"

            


    

    Notwithstanding any provision of the Supplemental Plan to the contrary,
      if a Participant is classified as a "Specified Employee" on his date of Separation from Service, the actual payment of the portion of his 409A Supplemental Benefit due under the provisions of Section 4, on account of such Participant's Separation
      from Service with the Company and all Affiliated Companies (for reasons other than death or his becoming Disabled) shall not commence prior to the first day of the seventh month following the Participant's Separation from Service.   For avoidance of
      doubt, the provisions of this Section 5.4 do not apply to the portion of a Participant's Benefit equal to his Grandfathered Supplemental Benefit or any benefit payable to or on behalf of the Participant pursuant to the death of the Participant or to
      the provisions of Section 4.2. Any payment to the Participant which he would have otherwise received under Section 4.1, during the six- month period immediately following such Participant's Separation from Service shall be accumulated, with interest,
      compounded on a monthly basis, at the Applicable Interest Rate and paid within 60 days of the first day of the seventh month following the Participant's Separation from Service. For purposes of this Section 5.4 the Applicable Interest Rate is one
      year U.S. Treasury rate (constant maturities) as published on the last business day of the calendar month preceding the date of the Participant's Separation from Service occurs.

      of the Supplemental Plan as in effect on October 3, 2004, without regard to any amendments after such date which would constitute a material modification for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

              6.1

            	
              Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as such term is defined in Section 4.2 of the 2005 SERP), all former
                Participants or Beneficiaries of former Participants then receiving or then entitled to receive a 409A Supplemental Benefit or 409A Supplemental Disability Benefit under Section 4 of the Supplemental Plan shall automatically receive, in a
                single lump sum payment, the actuarial equivalent value of the remaining 409A Supplemental Benefit or 409A Supplemental Disability Benefit payments due to such former Participant or Beneficiary as of the date the Change of Control occurs.
                If such former Participant (or Beneficiary) dies after the Change of Control occurs but before receiving such single lump sum payment, the single lump sum payment shall be made to the Participant's Designated Beneficiary, otherwise to his
                estate.

            


    

    

       

    
      	
              6.2

            	
              Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, upon a Participant's Separation from Service for any reason within two
                years following the date a Change of Control occurs, such Participant shall automatically receive, in a single lump sum payment, the actuarial equivalent value of his Supplemental Benefit accrued under Section 4 of the Supplemental Plan as
                of his date of Separation from Service.   If such Participant dies after his Separation from Service within two years of a Change of Control but before receiving
                such single lump sum payment, such single lump sum payment shall be made to his Designated Beneficiary, otherwise to his estate.

            


    

    

       

    
      	
              6.3

            	
              The amount of a single lump sum payment made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6 shall be calculated in the same
                manner and on the same actuarial equivalent basis utilized to calculate a lump sum payment under Option 6 as set forth in Section 5.02 of the Retirement Plan. The
                lump sum payment shall be based on the age of the former Participant or Beneficiary on the date the Change of Control occurs or the date of the Participant's Separation from Service with the Company and all Affiliated Companies, if later.
                The calculation of the lump sum payment hereunder represents a complete settlement of all benefits accrued on the Participant's (or former Participant's) behalf under the Supplemental Plan.

                Grandfathered Supplemental Benefit, except that the definition of the term "Change of Control" (as defined therein) shall be revised to be the later of a "Change of Control" (as such term is defined in Section 4.2 of the 2005 SERP or a
                "Change of Control" as defined in Section 3(b) of the Supplemental Plan as in effect on October 3, 2004 without regard to any amendments after such date which would constitute a material modification for purposes of Section 409A of the

              Funding

            


    

    The Corporation may, but shall not be obligated to, fund its obligations hereunder with
      insurance, by establishing a trust or a reserve fund or otherwise. In the event the Corporation elects to fund its obligations hereunder, neither the Participant nor his designated beneficiaries shall have an interest in any such insurance, reserve
      fund, trust or other arrangement.

                hereunder shall have any right, title, or interest whatsoever in any specific assets of the Corporation.  Nothing contained in the Supplemental Plan and no action taken pursuant to its provisions shall create or be construed to create a
                trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Corporation and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments under the Supplemental Plan, such right shall be no greater than
                the right of any general unsecured creditor of the Corporation.

    In the event that the Benefit Administrative Board shall find that a
      Participant or Beneficiary is incompetent to care for his affairs or is a minor, the Benefit Administrative Board may direct that any benefit payment due him, unless claim shall have been made therefore by a duly appointed legal representative, be
      paid on his behalf to his spouse, a child, a parent or other relative, and any such payment so made shall thereby be a complete discharge of the liability of the Corporation and the Supplemental Plan for that payment.

              Acceleration of or Delay in Payments,

            


    

    The Benefit Administrative Board in its sole and absolute discretion,
      may elect to accelerate the time or form of payment of a benefit owed to the Participant hereunder, provided such acceleration is permitted under Treas. Reg. Section l.409A-3(j)(4). The Benefit Administrative Board may also, in its sole and absolute
      discretion, delay the time for payment of a benefit owed to the Participant hereunder, to the extent permitted under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(7).

    9.5     Designated Beneficiary

    To the extent that any benefit would be paid to a Beneficiary under the Retirement Plan, the
      corresponding supplemental benefit under the Supplemental Plan shall be paid to such Beneficiary, unless the Participant designated an alternative beneficiary applicable to the Supplemental Plan and/or the SERP by a designation in writing, signed by
      the Participant and delivered to the Benefits Administrative Board prior to the death of the Participant. The Participant may, from time to time, revoke any such designation and make a new designation.

    The Supplemental Plan shall be administered by the Corporation's
      Benefits Administration Board. The Benefits Administration Board shall determine all questions involving the administration, interpretation, and application of the Supplemental Plan. Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all
      persons, except as otherwise provided by law.

    This Supplemental Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
      of the Corporation and its successors and assignees and the Participant, his designees and his estate. Nothing in the Supplemental Plan shall preclude the Corporation from consolidating or merging into or with, or transferring all or substantially
      all of its assets to, another corporation which assumes the Supplemental Plan and all obligations of the Corporation hereunder. Upon such a consolidation, merger or transfer of assets and assumption, the terms "Corporation" and "Company" shall refer
      to such other corporation and the Supplemental Plan shall continue in full force and effect.

    The Board of Directors of the Corporation may amend or terminate the Supplemental Plan at
      any time and from time to time, provided however that no such amendment or termination shall adversely affect the supplemental benefits which a Participant has accrued as of the date of such amendment or termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
      modification or amendment shall be made to Section 6 after the occurrence of a Change of Control. To the extent consistent with the rules relating to plan terminations and liquidations in Treasury Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(4)(ix) or otherwise
      consistent with Code Section 409A, the Corporation may provide that, without the prior written consent of Participants, the Participants' 409A Supplemental Benefit shall be distributed in a lump sum upon termination of the Supplemental Plan. Unless
      so distributed in accordance with the preceding sentence, in the event of a Plan termination, the 409A Supplemental Benefit shall continue to be paid in accordance with the foregoing provisions of the Supplemental Plan.
