section 280G of the Code. If a participant requests an independent verification, the Benefits Committee must provide him or her within 90 days of such a request an opinion, along with supporting calculations, from a nationally recognized
accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) selected by the participant, stating that it is the Accounting Firm’s opinion that the vesting of the Company Contribution Account would cause the deduction limitations of section 280G of
the Code to apply. The cost of such opinion and calculations shall be paid for by the Company. 
 (i) Forfeiture for
Termination of Employment for Cause or Competition with the Company. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, all unvested amounts credited to an FBU Participant’s Company Contribution Account and all earnings thereon and all
earnings credited to his or her FBU Deferral Account and FBU Bonus Account shall be forfeited (i) if the FBU Participant directly or indirectly becomes employed by or does any work for a competitor of the Company’s financial printing
business in the twelve-month period beginning on the first date of the month occurring after the month in which his or her termination of employment with the Company and its affiliates occurs or (ii) the FBU Participant’s employment with
the Company or an affiliate is terminated for cause (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion).

 Section 4.9. Deemed Investments. 

(a) Investment Elections. Each Participant in connection with his or her deferral elections pursuant to
Section 4.4 shall elect on the Election Form the percentage, in increments of 1%, of his or her Annual Deferral Amount and Company Contribution Amount that shall be deemed to be invested in one or more Measurement Funds. Each FBU Participant in
connection with his or her deferral elections pursuant to Section 4.4 shall elect on the Election Form the percentage, in increments of 1%, of the Base Salary or draw payments and commissions deferred by the FBU Participant, and the Company
Contribution Amount credited to his or her Company Contribution Account that shall be deemed to be invested in one or more Measurement Funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, until an FBU Participant becomes 100% vested in his or her Company
Contribution Account, such account shall be credited with earnings periodically throughout the Plan Year based upon the applicable percentage of the annual yield on the first business day of the Plan Year of U.S. Treasury Notes with a maturity of
five years, as posted on the Federal Reserve’s website. Prior to the fifth anniversary of the FBU Participant’s Crediting Date that applies to the employment agreement between the FBU Participant and the Employer pursuant to which a
Signing Credit or a Paid Billings Bonus was awarded, the FBU Participant shall elect, on the form and at the time and manner determined solely by the Committee in its discretion, the whole percentage or dollar amounts of such Signing Bonus and Paid
Billings Bonus that shall be deemed to be invested in one or more Measurement Funds. Each CSR Participant in connection with 

  
 -26- 








 
his or her deferral elections pursuant to Section 4.4 shall elect on the Election Form the percentage, in increments of 1%, of the Base Salary or draw payments and commissions deferred by
the CSR Participant that shall be deemed invested in one or more Measure Funds. If a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant does not elect any Measurement Fund, such amounts credited to his or her account(s) shall automatically be
deemed invested in the lowest-risk Measurement Fund (the “default Measurement Fund”), as determined by the Benefits Committee in its sole discretion. 

(b) Changing Investments. A Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant may elect, by use of any medium
approved by the Benefits Committee, to change the portion of the balance(s) of his or her account(s) that is deemed to be invested in one or more Measurement Funds by specifying the whole percentage of such amounts or account balances that is to be
deemed invested in each Measurement Fund. Any such election shall apply as of the first business day deemed reasonably practicable by the Benefits Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall continue to apply thereafter for each subsequent day in
which the participant participates in the Plan, unless changed in accordance with the previous sentence. 
 (c) Selection
of Measurement Funds. The Benefits Committee may, in its sole discretion, discontinue, substitute or add a Measurement Fund at any time. Each discontinuance, substitution or addition of a Measurement Fund shall take effect as of the first day of
the first calendar month that begins at least 30 days after the day on which the Benefits Committee gives Participants, FBU Participants and CSR Participants written notice of such discontinuance, substitution or addition. 

  
 -27- 








 (d) Crediting or Debiting Method. The performance of each Measurement Fund
(either positive or negative) shall be determined by the Director of Global Trust Investments, in its reasonable discretion, based on the performance of the investment vehicles upon which the Measurement Funds are based. In determining the value of
each Measurement Fund, the Benefits Committee may establish the value of the Measurement Fund at a lower amount than the investment vehicle upon which such Measurement Fund is based to take into account expenses incurred in the administration of the
Plan. Each Participant’s Account, each FBU Participant’s FBU Account and each CSR Participant’s CSR Account shall be credited or debited on each business day to the extent values are available for the investments upon which the
Measurement Funds elected (or the default Measurement Fund deemed elected) by him or her are based. 
 (e) No Actual
Investment. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the Measurement Funds, as well as the rate based upon the U.S. Treasury Notes with a maturity of five years in the case of Company Contribution
Accounts of FBU Participants who are not 100% vested in such accounts, are to be used for measurement purposes only and shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of a Participant’s Account, an FBU
Participant’s FBU Account or a CSR Participant’s CSR Account. In the event that the Company or the Trustee decides to invest funds of the Trust in any or all of the investments on which the Measurement Funds are based or in U.S. Treasury
Notes with a maturity of five years, no Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments. Without limiting the foregoing, each Participant’s Account, each FBU Participant’s FBU Account and
each CSR Participant’s CSR Account shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his or her behalf by the Company or the Trust. 

  
 -28- 








 (f) FBU Transferred Accounts. Earnings shall be credited to the balance of
each FBU Transferred Account periodically throughout the Plan Year based upon the applicable percentage of the annual yield on the first business day of the Plan Year of United States Treasury Notes with a maturity of five years, as posted on the
Federal Reserve’s website. If an FBU Account is distributed to an accountholder as of any day other than January 1st, then the FBU Account shall be credited with an amount representing
earnings based upon the number of whole months during the Plan Year prior to the date of distribution. Each FBU Transferred Account shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on behalf of the
accountholder. 
 (g) Unvested Signing Bonuses and Paid Billings Bonuses. Until an FBU Participant’s Signing
Credit(s) and earned Paid Billings Bonus(es) become vested pursuant to Section 4.8, an amount representing earnings in respect of such Signing Credit(s) and Paid Billings Bonus(es) shall be credited to his or her FBU Bonus Account periodically
throughout the Plan Year based upon the applicable percentage of the annual yield on the first business day of the Plan Year of United States Treasury Notes with a maturity of five years, as posted on the Federal Reserve’s website. If an FBU
Bonus Account is distributed to an accountholder as of any day other than January 1st, then the FBU Bonus Account shall be credited with an amount representing earnings based upon the number
of whole months during the Plan Year prior to the date of distribution. 

  
 -29- 








 (h) Unsecured Creditors. Participants, FBU Participants and CSR
Participants shall at all times be unsecured creditors of the Employers. 
 Section 4.10. No Crediting to Accounts After
Distribution. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, should the complete distribution of a Participant’s vested Account balance, an FBU Participant’s vested FBU Account balance or a CSR Participant’s vested CRS
Account balance occur before the date on which any amount would otherwise be credited to such account, such amount, other than a Company Contribution Amount, shall be paid to the former Participant, former FBU Participant or former CSR Participant,
as the case may be, on or before the March 15th occurring immediately after the end of the Plan Year in which such amount would have been credited to the account. Any Company Contribution
Amount that otherwise would have been credited to a Company Contribution Account of a Participant or FBU Participant and any amount representing earnings that would otherwise have been credited to a Company Contribution Account, a Deferral Account,
FBU Deferral Account, an FBU Transferred Account or a CSR Deferral Account after the Distribution Date shall be forfeited. 

Section 4.11. FICA and Other Taxes. 

(a) Annual Deferral Amounts, FBU Deferral Amounts and CSR Deferral Amounts. For each Plan Year in which an Annual
Deferral Amount is being withheld from a Participant’s current compensation, the Participant’s Employer shall withhold, in a manner determined by the Company, from the Participant’s Base Salary and Annual Bonus that are not being
deferred, as applicable, the Participant’s share of FICA and other taxes on such Annual Deferral Amount. For each Plan Year in which an FBU 

  
 -30- 








 
Deferral Amount is being withheld from an FBU Participant’s current compensation, the FBU Participant’s Employer shall withhold, in a manner determined by the Company, from the FBU
Participant’s Base Salary or draw payments that are not being deferred the FBU Participant’s share of FICA and other taxes on such FBU Deferral Amount. For each Plan Year in which a CSR Deferral Amount is being withheld from a CSR
Participant’s current compensation, the CSR Participant’s Employer shall withhold, in a manner determined by the Company, from the CSR Participant’s Base Salary or draws payments that are not being deferred the CSR Participant’s
share of FICA and other taxes on such CSR Deferral Amount. If deemed necessary, the Benefits Committee may reduce any Annual Deferral Amount, FBU Deferral Amount or CSR Deferral Amount in order to comply with this Section 4.11(a). 

(b) Company Contribution Account. When a Participant or an FBU Participant becomes vested in a Company Contribution
Amount that had been credited to his or her Company Contribution Account for a Plan Year, his or her Employer shall withhold from the portion of his or her current compensation that is not deferred his or her share of FICA and other taxes due on
such vested amount. If deemed necessary, the Benefits Committee may reduce the vested portion of such Company Contribution Account in order to satisfy the taxes due as a result of such vesting. 

(c) Distributions. Each Participant’s, FBU Participant’s and CSR Participant’s Employer, or the Trustee,
shall withhold from any payments under the Plan made to such Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant, as the case may be, all federal, state and local income, employment and other taxes required to be withheld by the Employer or the Trustee,
in connection with such payments, in amounts and in a manner to be determined in the sole discretion of the Company or the Trustee. 

  
 -31- 








 Section 4.12. Spin-Off. Pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement, as
of the Effective Date, the Company assumed, and transferred to the Plan, all assets, liabilities and obligations of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company under the RRD Plan with respect to any Transferred LSC Participant, and any such obligations
shall be administered and paid under the terms of this Plan; provided, however, that all deferral, investment and distribution elections made by such Transferred LSC Participants under the RRD Plan with respect to any Plan Year occurring prior to
the Effective Date and the Plan Year in which the Effective Date occurs will continue to apply and shall be administered under this Plan. All service and compensation that would be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of a
Transferred LSC Participant’s benefit under the RRD Plan as of the Effective Date shall be taken into account for the same purposes under this Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Transferred LSC Participant shall be treated as incurring a
Separation from Service, Retirement or similar event for purposes of determining the right to a distribution, benefits or any other purpose under the Plan as a result of the Spin-Off or the transfer of the Transferred LSC Participant’s
employment to the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. As of the Effective Date, the Plan shall assume and honor the terms of all domestic relations orders in effect under the RRD Plan in respect of Transferred LSC Participants.

account of such participant’s Retirement shall be made, or shall commence, within 60 days of the Distribution Date according to his or her direction on the most recently filed Election Form, provided that the conditions set forth in
Article IX are satisfied, and provided further that if the amount of such Account, FBU Account or CSR Account and, with respect to an FBU Participant any FBU Transferred Account, added together with the interests of the Participant, FBU
Participant or CSR Participant, as the case may be, under all other plans and arrangements of the same type within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(c)(2), is not greater than the then applicable dollar limit under section

 ARTICLE VIII 

SCHEDULED DISTRIBUTIONS; UNFORESEEABLE EMERGENCY PAYMENTS 

Section 8.1. Scheduled Distributions. In connection with each election to defer an Annual Deferral Amount, a Participant
may irrevocably elect to receive a Scheduled Distribution from the Plan with respect to all or a portion of such Annual Deferral Amount, adjusted for deemed earnings and losses. In connection with each election to defer an FBU Deferral Amount, an
FBU Participant may irrevocably elect to receive a Scheduled Distribution from the Plan with respect to all or a portion of such FBU Deferral Amount, adjusted for deemed earnings and losses. In connection with each election to defer a CSR Deferral
Amount, a CSR Participant may irrevocably elect to receive a Scheduled Distribution from the Plan with respect to all or a portion of such CSR Deferral Amount, adjusted for deemed earnings and losses. A Scheduled Distribution shall be paid in cash
lump sum, calculated as of the close of business on the Distribution Date, in an amount equal to the portion of the Annual Deferral Amount, FBU Deferral Amount or CSR Deferral Amount that the participant elected to have distributed in a Scheduled
Distribution. Subject to the other terms and conditions of the Plan, including Section 9.2, each Scheduled Distribution shall be paid within 60 days of the date of the Distribution Date. 

Section 8.2. Other Payments Take Precedence Over Scheduled Distributions. If a Distribution Date occurs that triggers a
payment under Article V, VI, VII or X or a payment is to be made pursuant to Section 8.3, then any amount subject to a Scheduled Distribution election shall not be paid in accordance with Section 8.1, to the extent it is payable
pursuant to such other applicable Article or Section 8.3. If a payment on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency is to be made pursuant to Section 8.3, then, to the extent necessary to satisfy the Unforeseeable 

  
 -37- 








 
Emergency, any amount subject to a Scheduled Distribution election shall not be paid in accordance with Section 8.1, but shall be paid in accordance with Section 8.3. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Benefits Committee shall interpret this Section 8.2 in a manner that is consistent with applicable law. 

Section 8.3. Unforeseeable Emergency. 

(a) In General. A Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant who experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency may
file a request with the Benefits Committee to receive a distribution from his or her vested Account balance, vested FBU Account balance or CSR Account balance, as the case may be, equal to an amount reasonably necessary to satisfy his or her
emergency financial need and pay any taxes and penalties reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution. The Executive Vice President, Chief Human Resource Officer, in his or her sole discretion, shall determine whether the Participant, FBU
Participant or CSR Participant, as applicable, has experienced an Unforeseeable Emergency. The Benefits Committee shall not make a distribution on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency to the extent that the Executive Vice President, Chief Human
Resource Officer determines that the emergency need may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation from insurance or otherwise, by liquidation of the assets of the Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant, as the case may be (to the
extent such liquidation would not cause severe financial hardship), or by cessation of the participant’s deferrals under the Plan. In making his or her determination, the Executive Vice President, Chief Human Resource Officer is not required to
consider any amounts that are available under a tax-qualified plan (including any amount that may be available by obtaining a loan under such a plan) or under another nonqualified deferred 

  
 -38- 








 
compensation plan. The payment of any amount under this Section 8.3 shall be subject to Section 9.2. If the Executive Vice President, Chief Human Resource Officer, grants a request for
a payment on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency, then the deferral election of the requesting participant shall be cancelled for the remainder of the Plan Year or, if longer, for six months. 

(b) Coordination with 401(k) Plan. If a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant receives a hardship
distribution within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.401(k)-1(d)(3) under the RR Donnelley & Sons Company Savings Plan or any other plan with a cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of section 401(k) of the
Code that is maintained by an Employer or an Affiliate, then his or her deferral election under the Plan shall be cancelled, and he or she shall not be permitted to defer any amounts under the Plan for a period of six months after the receipt of the
hardship distribution. The Employee shall be again eligible to defer compensation under the Plan upon the expiration of such six-month period if he or she is then eligible to participate. 

ARTICLE IX 
 CHANGES IN THE FORM
OR TIMING OF PAYMENTS 
 Section 9.1. Election Changes. Each Participant, FBU Participant and CSR Participant may change
the form or timing of a payment of his or her vested account balance(s) only in accordance with this Section 9.1. Such an individual who wishes to change the time or form of a previously elected payment must submit a new Election Form to the
Benefits Committee, in accordance with any rules and procedures established by the Benefits Committee, at least 12 months before the payment would otherwise be made, except that any change in the form of Retirement payment must be made before
the individual attains age 50. The first payment pursuant to a new election must be at least five years after the time the payment would otherwise have been made, and the new election shall have no effect until at least 12 months after the date
on which such election is made. 

  
 -39- 








 Section 9.2. Other Changes. 

(a) Section 162(m). The Company shall delay a payment to a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant to
the extent the Company reasonably anticipates that if the payment were made as scheduled, the Employer of such individual would not be permitted fully to deduct the payment under section 162(m) of the Code, provided that the payment is
made, at the Company’s discretion, either (i) during the first taxable year of the individual in which the Company reasonably anticipates that the payment would be deductible for such year or (ii) during the period beginning with the
date of the Separation from Service or Retirement of the individual and ending on the later of (w) the last day of the Employer’s taxable year in which the such Separation from Service or Retirement occurs and (x) the fifteenth day of
the third month following such Separation from Service or Retirement. If a payment is delayed to a date on or after such Separation from Service or Retirement, however, and the individual is a Specified Employee on the date of his or her Separation
from Service or Retirement, then the payment shall be treated as a payment on account of the his or her Separation from Service or Retirement. Thus, in the case of a delayed payment to such an individual, the payment shall be made during the period
beginning with the date that is six months after such Separation from Service or Retirement and ending on the later of (y) the last day of the Employer’s taxable year in which occurs the last day of the sixth month period beginning on the
date after such Separation from Service or Retirement and (z) the fifteenth day of the third 

  
 -40- 








 
month following the last day of the sixth month beginning on the date after such Separation from Service or Retirement. The Participant’s Account, the FBU Participant’s FBU Account and
any FBU Transferred Account, or the CSR Participant’s CSR Account, as applicable, shall continue to be adjusted in accordance with Section 4.9 until it is fully paid. 

(b) Payment upon Income Inclusion Under Section 409A. To the extent an amount deferred under the Plan is included
in the income of a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant as a result of a failure to comply with section 409A of the Code, the Plan shall distribute to the Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant, as the case may be, in
the year of inclusion an amount equal to the lesser of the amount included in his or her income and the amount of the Participant’s vested Account balance, the FBU Participant’s vested FBU Account balance and any FBU Transferred Account or
the CSR Participant’s CSR Account, as applicable. 
 (c) Payments That Would Violate Applicable Law. If the
Company reasonably anticipates that a payment would violate a federal securities law or other applicable law, then the payment shall be delayed until the earliest date the Company reasonably anticipates that the payment can be made without a
violation of law.

and signing the Beneficiary designation form and returning it to the Benefits Committee or its designated agent. Each participant shall have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of the
Beneficiary designation form and the Benefits Committee’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. If a participant designates more than one person to be his or her primary Beneficiary and one or more of those persons predeceases
such participant, then the share of such deceased person(s) shall be allocated pro rata to such surviving persons. 

Section 11.2. Spousal Consent. If a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant names someone other than his or
her spouse as a Beneficiary, then the Benefits Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine that spousal consent is required to be provided in a form designated by the Benefits Committee, executed by such spouse and returned to the 

  
 -42- 








 
Benefits Committee. Upon the acceptance by the Benefits Committee of a new Beneficiary designation form from a participant, all Beneficiary designations previously filed by such participant shall
be canceled. The Benefits Committee shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary designation form filed by a participant and accepted by the Benefits Committee prior to his or her death. 

Section 11.3. Acknowledgment. No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until received
and acknowledged in writing by the Benefits Committee or its designated agent. 
 Section 11.4. No Beneficiary
Designation. If a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary or, if no Beneficiary survives the participant (or if no Beneficiary survives until the complete distribution of the Participant’s
vested Account balance, the FBU Participant’s vested FBU Account balance and any FBU Transferred Account balance or the CSR Participant’s CSR Account balance), then the participant’s Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his or her
surviving spouse. If the deceased Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant has no surviving spouse, then the Participant’s vested Account balance, the FBU Participant’s vested FBU Account balance and any vested FBU Transferred
Account balance or the CSR Participant’s CSR Account balance, as the case may be, shall be payable to the executor or personal representative of the deceased participant’s estate.

Participant’s FBU Account and any FBU Transferred Account or a deceased CSR Participant’s CSR Account balance to his or her Beneficiary shall fully and completely discharge all Employers and the Benefits Committee from all obligations
under the Plan with respect to such Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant.

Section 12.1. Amendment. The Company shall have the right, at any time, to amend the Plan in whole or in part by the action

other arrangements that are of the same type (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(c)(2)) as the Plan are terminated and liquidated with respect to each Participant, FBU
Participant and CSR Participant affected by the Change in Control, and provided further that all such Participants, FBU Participants and CSR Participants receive all compensation deferred under the Plan and all plans, agreements and other

 -46- 








 (d) Other Permissible Events. The Company may terminate and liquidate the
Plan upon any other event or condition that the Internal Revenue Service may provide in a regulation, ruling or notice or other publication in the Internal Revenue Bulletin. 

Section 12.3. Effect of Payment. The full payment of a Participant’s vested Account balance, an FBU Participant’s
vested FBU Account and any FBU Transferred Account and a CSR Participant’s CSR Account balance shall completely discharge all obligations to such Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant and his or her Beneficiary under the Plan, and the
Participant’s, FBU Participant’s or CSR Participant’s Plan Agreement shall terminate.

(b) Benefits Committee Duties and Actions. The Benefits Committee shall have the authority to (i) make, amend,
interpret and enforce all appropriate rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan, (ii) decide or resolve any and all questions, including interpretations of the Plan, as may arise in connection with the Plan, and (iii) take

to 

  
 -47- 








 
himself or herself. When making a determination or calculation, the Benefits Committee shall be entitled to rely on information furnished by a Participant, an FBU Participant, a CSR Participant
or the Company. Any action taken by the Benefits Committee with respect to any one or more Participants, FBU Participants or CSR Participants shall not be binding on the Benefits Committee as to any action to be taken with respect to any other
participant. Each determination required or permitted under the Plan shall be made by the Benefits Committee in its sole and absolute discretion. The members of the Benefits Committee may allocate their responsibilities and may designate any other
person or committee, including employees of the Company, to carry out any of their responsibilities with respect to administration of the Plan. 

Section 13.2. Administration Upon Change In Control. Upon and after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Plan shall
be administered by an independent third party selected by the Trustee and approved by the individual who, immediately prior to the Change in Control, was the Company’s highest ranking officer (the “Ex-CEO”). Such independent third
party (the “Administrator”) shall have the discretionary power to determine all questions arising in connection with the administration of the Plan and the interpretation of the Plan and Trust including, but not limited to benefit
entitlement determinations. Upon a Change in Control and for a period of three years thereafter, the Administrator may be terminated (and a replacement appointed) by the Trustee only with the approval of the Ex-CEO. Upon a Change in Control and for
a period of three years thereafter, the Company may not terminate the services of the Administrator. 
 Section 13.3.
Agents. In the administration of the Plan, the Benefits Committee or, if applicable, the Administrator, may from time to time employ agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees fit (including acting through a duly
appointed representative) and may from time to time consult with counsel who may be counsel to any Employer. 

  
 -48- 








 Section 13.4. Binding Effect of Decisions. Any decision or action of the
Benefits Committee or, if applicable, the Administrator, with respect to any matter arising out of or in connection with the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons having
any interest in the Plan and all persons claiming under any Participant, FBU Participant, CSR Participant, former Participant, former FBU Participant, former CSR Participant or Beneficiary. 

Section 13.5. Indemnity. The Company shall: (i) pay all reasonable administrative expenses and fees of the Benefits
Committee or, if any, the Administrator; and (ii) indemnify and hold harmless the Benefits Committee or, if any, the Administrator (or any agent or delegate of either the Benefits Committee or the Administrator) against any and all claims,
losses, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and expenses arising in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, except with respect to matters resulting from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of the Benefits Committee or, as applicable, the Administrator, or the employees, delegates or agents of either. 

Section 13.6. Employer Information. To enable the Benefits Committee or, as the case may be, the Administrator, to perform
its functions, the Company and each Employer shall supply full and timely information to the Benefits Committee or the Administrator as requested, on all matters relating to the compensation of the Participants, FBU Participants and CSR
Participants, the date and circumstances of the Retirement, disability, death or Separation from Service of the Participants, FBU Participants and CSR Participants, and such other pertinent information as the Benefits Committee or Administrator may
reasonably require.

conducted by the Benefits Committee, with or without the presence of the Claimant, as determined by the Benefits Committee in its discretion. The Benefits Committee shall consider the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan, information and
evidence that is presented by the Claimant and any other information the Benefits Committee deems relevant. In reviewing the Claim, the Benefits Committee shall also consider determinations made within the immediately preceding 24 months of Claims
of similarly situated Claimants.

	 	(i)	specify the specific reason or reasons for the Adverse Determination; 

  

	 	(ii)	reference the specific provision(s) of the Plan on which the Adverse Determination is based; 

  

	 	(iii)	describe any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the Claim and explain of why such material or information is necessary; and 


 

	 	(iv)	describe the Plan’s appeal procedure and the time limits applicable to such procedure, and include a statement describing the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA after an

60 days of the delivery to the Claimant of the notice of the Adverse Determination for the related Claim, the Claimant shall be barred from filing an appeal of such Claim and he or she shall be deemed to have failed to exhaust all
administrative remedies under the Plan. 
 Section 15.7. Appeal Procedure. An appeal of an Adverse Determination shall be
conducted by the Benefits Committee, with or without the presence of the Claimant, as determined by the Benefits Committee in its discretion. The Benefits Committee shall consider the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan, information and
evidence that is presented by the 

  
 -52- 








 
Claimant (including all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial
Determination) and any other information the Benefits Committee deems relevant. The Claimant shall be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all relevant documents and shall be allowed to submit any supporting
comments, documents, records and other information. 
 Section 15.8. Timing and Notification of the Determination of an
Appeal.

60 additional days if the Benefits Committee determines that circumstances require an extension of time. The Benefits Committee shall notify the Claimant before the end of the initial 60-day period of the
circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Benefits Committee expects to render a decision. If such an extension is due to a failure of the Claimant to submit information necessary to decide the appeal, the period in
which the Benefits Committee is required to make a decision shall be tolled by the Benefits Committee from the date on which the Benefits Committee notifies the Claimant until the date the Benefits Committee has received the requested information
from the Claimant. If the Claimant fails to respond to the Benefits Committee’s request for additional information within a reasonable time, the Benefits Committee may, in its discretion, render a Determination on the appeal based on the record
before the Benefits Committee.

class postage prepaid and return receipt requested, and (c) the date of confirmation of successful transmission of a facsimile or electronic mail. If the requirements described in this Section 15.10 are not satisfied, then the notice,

Section 16.4. Distributions From the Trust. Each Employer’s obligations under the Plan may be satisfied with Trust
assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and any such distribution shall reduce the Employer’s obligations under the Plan. 

ARTICLE XVII 
 MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 17.1. Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to be a plan that is not qualified within the meaning of
section 401(a) of the Code and that “is unfunded and is maintained by an employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of
sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(l) of ERISA. The Plan is also intended to comply with section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a
manner consistent with the intent expressed in this Section 17.1. 
 Section 17.2. Unsecured General Creditor.
Participants, FBU Participants, CSR Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of any Employer. For purposes of the payment of benefits
under the Plan, any and all of an Employer’s assets shall be, and remain, the 

  
 -56- 








 
general, unpledged unrestricted assets of the Employer. An Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future, and
Participants, FBU Participants, CSR Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall at all times be unsecured creditors of the Employers. 

Section 17.3. Employer’s Liability. An Employer’s liability for the payment of benefits shall be defined only by
the Plan and the Plan Agreements. An Employer shall have no obligation to a Participant, an FBU Participant, a CSR Participant or any Beneficiary under the Plan except as expressly provided in the Plan or in a Plan Agreement. 

Section 17.4. Nonassignability. No Participant, FBU Participant, a CSR Participant, Beneficiary or any other person shall
have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are,
and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts,
judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant, FBU Participant, CSR Participant, Beneficiary or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of his or her bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a
spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise. Any attempt to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, except as
specifically permitted under the Plan, shall be null and void and without legal effect. 

  
 -57- 








 Section 17.5. Withholding for Taxes. Notwithstanding anything contained in the
Plan to the contrary, the Employers shall withhold from payments to be made under the Plan such amount or amounts as may be required for purposes of complying with the tax withholding provisions of the Code or any applicable State law for purposes
of paying any tax attributable to any amounts payable or creditable under the Plan. The Company may reduce a Participant’s Account, an FBU Participant’s FBU Account and any FBU Transferred Account or a CSR Participant’s CSR Account in
the amount of employment taxes payable with respect to compensation deferred before the Participant’s, FBU Participant’s or CSR Participant’s Separation from Service. 

Section 17.6. Immunity of Benefits Committee Members. The members of the Benefits Committee may rely upon any information,
report or opinion supplied to them by any officer of the Company or any legal counsel, independent public accountant or actuary, and shall be fully protected in relying upon any such information, report or opinion. No member of the Benefits
Committee shall have any liability to the Company or any Participant, FBU Participant, CSR Participant, former Participant, former FBU Participant, former CSR Participant, any Beneficiary, or to any person claiming under or through any Participant,
FBU Participant, CSR Participant, former Participant, former FBU Participant, former CSR Participant or any Beneficiary or other person interested or concerned in connection with any decision made by such member of the Benefits Committee pursuant to
the Plan which was based upon any such information, report or opinion if such member of the Benefits Committee relied thereon in good faith. 

Section 17.7. Not a Contract of Employment. The terms and conditions of the Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a
contract of employment between any Employer and a 

  
 -58- 








 
Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant. Employment of a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant is hereby acknowledged to be an “at will” employment
relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, unless expressly provided otherwise in a written employment agreement. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give a
Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant the right to be retained in the service of any Employer or to interfere with the right of any Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant at any time.

 Section 17.8. Furnishing Information. A Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant or his or her Beneficiary
will cooperate with the Benefits Committee by furnishing any and all information requested by the Benefits Committee and take such other actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and payments hereunder,
including but not limited to taking such physical examinations as the Benefits Committee may deem necessary in connection with the purchase of insurance, as described in Section 17.18. 

Section 17.9. Terms. Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were in
the feminine in all cases where they would so apply. Whenever any word is used herein in the singular, it shall be construed as though it was used in the plural, in all cases where it would reasonably so apply; and whenever any word is used herein
in the plural, it shall be construed as though it was used in the singular, in all cases where it would so reasonably apply.

 Section 17.10. Captions. The captions of the articles, sections and paragraphs
of the Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions. 

Section 17.11. Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the internal laws
of the State of Illinois without regard to its conflicts of laws principles, to the extent not preempted by any applicable federal law. 

Section 17.12. Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Benefits Committee under the Plan
shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, to the address below: 
 LSC
Communications, Inc. 
 Attn: Director of Compensation 

4101 Winfield Road 

Warrenville, IL 60555 

Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the
receipt for registration or certification. 
 Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a Participant, FBU Participant or
CSR Participant, any former participant or any Beneficiary under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by mail, to his or her last known address. 

Section 17.13. Successors. The provisions of the Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Employers and their
successors and assigns and to the Participants, FBU Participants and CSR Participants and their Beneficiaries. 

  
 -60- 








 Section 17.14. Spouse’s Interest. The interest in the benefits hereunder
of a spouse of a Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant who has predeceased such Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant shall automatically pass to the Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant, as applicable, and shall not
be transferable by such spouse in any manner, including but not limited to such spouse’s will, nor shall such interest pass under the laws of intestate succession. 

Section 17.15. Validity. In case any provision of the Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or
invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein. 

Section 17.16. Incompetent. If the Benefits Committee determines in its discretion that a payment under the Plan is to be
made to a minor, a person declared incompetent or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of such person’s property, the Benefits Committee may direct that such payment be made to the guardian, legal representative or person having
the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or incapable person. The Benefits Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to such payment. Any payment made shall be for the
account of the Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant, as the case may be, or his or her Beneficiary, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Plan for such payment. 

Section 17.17. Court Order. The Benefits Committee is authorized to comply with any court order in any action in which the
Plan or the Benefits Committee has been named as a party, including any action involving a determination of a Participant’s, FBU Participant’s or CSR 

  
 -61- 








 
Participant’s rights or interests under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Benefits Committee shall interpret this provision in a manner that is consistent with applicable tax law,
including but not limited to guidance issued after the effective date of the Plan or any amendment or restatement thereof. 

Section 17.18. Insurance. The Employers, on their own behalf or on behalf of the Trustee, and, in their sole discretion,
may apply for and procure insurance on the life of a Participant, an FBU Participant or a CSR Participant, in such amounts and in such forms as the Trust may choose. The Employers or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall be the sole owner and
beneficiary of any such insurance. Such Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or policies, and at the request of his or her Employer shall submit to medical examinations and supply such
information and execute such documents as may be required by the insurance company or companies to whom the Employers have applied for insurance. 

Section 17.19. Legal Fees To Enforce Rights After Change in Control. The Company and each Employer are aware that upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control, the Board or the board of directors of an Employer (which might then be composed of new members) or a shareholder of the Company or an Employer, or of any successor corporation might then cause or attempt to cause
the Company, an Employer or such successor to refuse to comply with its obligations under the Plan and might cause or attempt to cause the Company or an Employer to institute, or may institute, litigation seeking to deny Participants, FBU
Participants or CSR Participants the payments intended under the Plan. In these circumstances, the purpose of the Plan could be frustrated. Accordingly, if, following a Change in Control, it should appear to any Participant, FBU Participant or CSR
Participant that the Company, his or her Employer or any 

  
 -62- 








 
successor corporation has failed to comply with any of its obligations under the Plan or any Plan Agreement thereunder or, if the Company, such Employer or any other person takes any action to
declare the Plan void or unenforceable or institutes any litigation or other legal action designed to deny, diminish or to recover from any Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant the payments intended to be provided, then the Company and
his or her Employer irrevocably authorize such Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant to retain counsel of his or her choice at the expense of the Company and his or her Employer (who shall be jointly and severally liable) to represent such
Participant, FBU Participant or CSR Participant in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Company, his or her Employer or any director, officer, shareholder or other person
affiliated with the Company, his or her Employer or any successor thereto in any jurisdiction. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has signed this Plan
document as of September 22, 2016.
