ADOPTION OF PLAN — [Select one] 
  

	 ̈	Adoption - The undersigned          (the “Employer”) hereby adopts as a
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan for the individuals identified in Item 5 herein the form of Plan known as the Nonqualified Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan. 


 

	 ̈	Amendment of Previous Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan – With “Grandfathered” Amounts -
             (the “Employer”) previously has adopted a Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, known as the
         [enter name of previous plan], and the execution of this Adoption Agreement constitutes an amendment to that Plan, effective only for
Deferrals, Contributions, earnings, gains, losses, depreciation and appreciation vested and credited thereto or debited therefrom on and after the Effective Date listed in Section 2 below, or, if otherwise determined by the Employer, on and
after January 1, 2005 with respect to Plan provisions required under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder. All other amounts in the plan shall be subject to the provisions of the previous plan document.
This option is appropriate if the previous plan contains grandfathered amounts not subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Grandfathered amounts were contributed to the plan prior to January 1, 2005 under the terms of the
plan in effect prior to October 4, 2004, and those plan terms have not since been materially modified. Grandfathered amounts and earnings will be administered under the terms of the prior plan document.

adopted a Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, known as the Kraft Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, and the execution of this Adoption Agreement constitutes a restatement of that Plan, effective as of the
Effective Date listed in Section 2 below for all funds under the Plan. This option is appropriate if the previous plan does not contain “grandfathered” amounts (see description above), or if Employer wishes to apply Section 409A
rules to all amounts in the plan (even pre-2005 amounts), or if previous plan has been materially modified and thus become subject to Section 409A.
