AMENDMENTS TO OMNIBUS



 Exhibit 10.13 
 Amendments 
 to the 
 Omnibus Benefit Restoration Plan of Sonoco Products Company 
 Whereas, Sonoco Products Company (the
“Company”) presently maintains the Omnibus Benefit Restoration Plan of Sonoco Products Company (the “Plan”); and 
 Whereas,
the Company has reserved the right to amend the Plan by action of the Board’s Executive Compensation Committee (the “Committee”); and 
 Whereas, the Committee has authorized and directed the Senior Vice President of Human Resources, to take such actions to effect such amendments; and 
 Whereas, consistent with actions taken previously with respect to the Sonoco Savings Plan, the Company desires to suspend the 401(k) Plan Restoration Benefit for the period beginning on June 1, 2009 and
ending on December 31, 2009; and 
 Whereas, consistent with actions taken previously with respect to the Sonoco Pension Plan, the Company
desires to (i) freeze accruals under the Plan’s Executive Benefit effective as of December 31, 2018 and (ii) extend the DC SERP Benefit to participants affected by such freeze effective as of January 1, 2019; and 

Whereas, the Company has decided to eliminate the social security level income annuity as a payment option with respect to certain restoration benefits
provided under the Plan; 
 Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Plan shall be amended as follows: 
  

	1.	Effective June 1, 2009, Section 5.2(a) shall be deleted and replaced with the following: 

  

	 	“(a)	401(k) Plan Restoration Benefit 

  

	 	(1)	General Rule. Subject to subsection (a)(2) below, for each Plan Year, the Company shall credit to the 401(k) Plan Restoration Account of each Participant an amount equal
to: 

  

	 	(A)	the portion of the Participant’s Eligible Compensation for the Plan Year that exceeds the limit in effect for such Plan Year under Code section 401(a)(17); multiplied
by 

  

	 	(B)	the matching contribution percentage that would have applied to the Participant under the 401(k) Plan for such Plan Year assuming that he or she had been contributing at a rate
to qualify for the maximum matching contribution percentage under the 401(k) Plan. 

  

	 	(2)	Suspension of Company Allocations. For the Plan Year beginning January 1, 2009, the Company shall credit to the 401(k) Plan Restoration Account of each Participant an
amount equal to four percent of the amount by which the Participant’s Eligible Compensation for the period beginning January 1, 2009 and ending May 31, 2009 exceeds $102,083. 

 The Company shall not credit any additional contributions under this section 5.2(a) for Eligible Compensation earned during the period beginning on
June 1, 2009 and ending on December 31, 2009.”
