NONQUALIFIED SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

COVERING OFFICER-EMPLOYEES OF

CSS INDUSTRIES, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES




ARTICLE I




HISTORY AND PURPOSE OF THE PLAN




Section 1.01 History. CSS previously adopted the Prior CSS Plan. In addition,
certain Subsidiaries of CSS previously adopted the Prior Subsidiary Plans. CSS has determined to
merge the Prior Subsidiary Plans with and into the Prior CSS Plan, effective as of January 1, 2009,
so that CSS sponsors one plan for itself and its participating Subsidiaries. The Prior CSS Plan
will be the surviving plan. In addition, CSS has determined to amend and restate the surviving
Prior CSS Plan, as merged with the Prior Subsidiary Plans, to incorporate the requirements of
section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations with respect to that portion of each
Participant’s Account that is subject to the requirements of section 409A of the Code, as well as
to make certain design changes that will be reflected in the surviving CSS Plan. This Plan
document shall reflect the terms and conditions of the surviving Prior CSS Plan, as amended and
restated, effective as of January 1, 2009. This Plan document covers any Participant who was
entitled to receive a benefit from the Prior CSS Plan or a Prior Subsidiary Plan as of December 31,
2008, but did not receive payment of his benefit under such plans as of such date, as well as any
individual who becomes a Participant in the Plan on or after January 1, 2009. Benefit payments
commencing prior to January 1, 2009 are governed by the terms of the Prior CSS Plan or Prior
Subsidiary Plans as they existed prior to January 1, 2009 and are either grandfathered from the
requirements of section 409A of the Code or payable pursuant to a fixed scheduled as required by,
and in compliance with, section 409A of the Code, with payments made between January 1, 2005 and
December 31, 2008 that are subject to the requirements of section 409A of the Code, such plans have
been operated in accordance with the transition relief established by the Treasury Department and
Internal Revenue Service pursuant to section 409A of the Code.



Section 1.02 Purpose. The purpose of the Plan, as amended and restated effective as
of the Effective Date, is to recognize the services provided by certain key employees and officers
of CSS and its Subsidiaries. The Plan is intended to make additional retirement benefits and
increased financial security available to the Participant’s on a tax-favored basis by providing
additional Employer contributions that cannot be made under the Qualified Plans of CSS and its
Subsidiaries due to certain restrictions applicable under the Code. CSS intends that the Plan
shall at all times be maintained on an unfunded basis for federal income tax purposes under the
Code and administered as a non-qualified “top-hat” plan exempt from the substantive requirements of
ERISA. CSS also intends that the Plan shall be maintained and operated in accordance with the
requirements of section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations, with respect to amounts
subject to such requirements.



Section 1.03 Employer Contributions Covered by the Plan. The Plan covers amounts
credited to Accounts on behalf of Participants that have not been fully distributed to Participants
prior to January 1, 2009.

necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan and to make any other
determinations, including factual determinations, and to take any other such actions as it deems
necessary or advisable in carrying out its duties under the Plan. All actions taken by the
Committee arising out of, or in connection with, the administration of the Plan or any rules

conclusive and binding upon the Employers, the Employees, the Participants, the Beneficiaries and

Employee shall become an Eligible Employee but, in any event, prior to the Plan Year in which such
individual may first participate in the Plan. By becoming a Participant, each Eligible Employee
shall for all purposes be deemed conclusively to have assented to the terms of the Plan and to all
amendments thereto.



Section 4.03 Change in Status. A Participant who ceases to be employed as an Eligible
Employee (whether or not he is still employed in another capacity by the Employer or a
non-participating Subsidiary) shall no longer be eligible to participate in the Plan as an active
Participant for purposes of eligibility to receive Employer Contributions and Discretionary
Contributions until he again becomes an Eligible Employee, at which time he will again become an
active Participant for purposes of eligibility to receive Employer Contributions and Discretionary
Contributions, commencing with the first Plan Year that follows the date on which he again becomes
an Eligible Employee.



Section 4.04 Employer Contributions. Each Plan Year in which an Employer makes a
Qualified Plan Contribution to a Qualified Plan on behalf of a Participant, CSS shall credit to
such Participant’s Employer Contribution Account an amount that is equal to the product of (x) and
(y), where “(x)” is the sum of (i) Qualified Plan Contribution Percentage and (ii) the lesser of
(A) the Qualified Plan Contribution Percentage or (B) the greater of (I) 6.2% or (II) the old-age
insurance portion of the employer OASDI tax rate in effect at the beginning of the Plan Year
pursuant to section 3111(a) of the Code; and “(y)” is the difference between (a) such Participant’s
total Compensation for such Plan Year and (b) the compensation limit under section 401(a)(17)(A) of
the Code (for 2009, the limit is $245,000), as adjusted in accordance with section 401(a)(17)(B) of
the Code. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if the Participant’s Compensation
for any Plan Year is equal to or less than the compensation limit under section 401(a)(17)(A) of
the Code, as adjusted in accordance with section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Code, for such Plan Year, no
Employer Contribution shall be made to the Participant’s Employer Contribution Account for such
Plan Year. For the avoidance of doubt, the amount, if any, that will be contributed to the
Participant’s Employer Contribution Account for a Plan Year pursuant to this Section will be solely
dependent on the Qualified Plan for which Participant participates in for the relevant Plan Year.
If no Qualified Plan Contribution is made to the Qualified Plan in which the Participant
participates during the Plan Year, the Participant shall not be eligible to receive an Employer
Contribution under this Plan for the Plan Year.



Section 4.05 Discretionary Contributions. After the end of each Plan Year, CSS may
credit, in its sole discretion, to each Participant’s Discretionary Contribution Account who CSS
has determined to credit a Discretionary Contribution an amount that will be based on a percentage
of such Participant’s Compensation that exceeds the contribution limitation (subject to applicable
COLA) imposed by section 401(a)(17) of the Code. An amount credited to a Participant’s
Discretionary Contribution Account pursuant to this Section 5.02 is purely discretionary and is in
the sole discretion of the Committee and is independent of any Employer Contribution, if any,
credited to a Participant pursuant to Section 5.01. If a Discretionary Contribution will be
credited for a Plan Year, the Committee shall determine, in its sole
discretion, which Participants shall be eligible for such Discretionary Contribution and the
relevant percentage for such Participant, which percentages need not be uniform among Participants.

Section 4.06 Timing of Employer Contributions and Discretionary Contributions.
Employer Contributions shall be credited to the Participant’s Employer Contribution Account at the
same time as Qualified Plan Contributions are credited to the Participant’s account under the
Qualified Plan. Discretionary Contributions shall be credited to the Participant’s Discretionary
Contribution Account at the time determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.



ARTICLE V




ACCOUNTS




Section 5.01 Accounts. CSS shall establish and maintain on behalf of each Employer
separate Accounts with respect to each Participant. A Participant’s Account(s) shall consist of
one or more of the following subaccounts: Employer Contribution Account, Discretionary
Contribution Account, Prior CSS Contribution Account, Prior Subsidiary Contribution Account, Prior
Grandfathered CSS Contribution Account and Prior Grandfathered Subsidiary Contribution Account.
The Participant’s Account(s) shall be reduced by the amount of any payments made by the Employer to
the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary pursuant to this Plan.



Section 5.02 Earnings (or Losses) on Accounts. A Participant’s Account(s) shall be
credited with all deemed earnings (or losses) generated by the Investment Funds elected by the
Participant from time to time. Participants may allocate the amounts credited to their Account(s)
among the Investment Funds available under the Plan only in whole percentages. The deemed rate of
return, positive or negative, credited under each Investment Fund is based upon the actual
investment performance of the corresponding investment portfolios that the Committee may designate
from time to time, and shall equal the total return of each such Investment Fund net of asset based
charges, including, without limitation, money management fees and fund expenses. The Committee
may, on a prospective basis, add to or delete any of the Investment Funds.



Section 5.03 Investment Funds. Notwithstanding that the rates of return credited to
Participants’ Account(s) are based upon the actual performance of the corresponding Investment
Funds as the Committee may designate, neither CSS nor any other Employer shall be obligated to
actually invest any amounts credited under this Plan in such Investment Funds or any other
Investment Funds.



Section 5.04 Change in Investment Funds. A Participant may change the Investment
Funds in which the amounts credited to his Account(s) are deemed to be allocated with whatever
frequency is determined by the Committee. Each such change may include (a) reallocation of the
amounts credited to the Participant’s existing Account(s) in whole percentages, and/or (b) change
in investment allocation of amounts to be credited to the Participant’s Account(s) in the future,
as the Participant may elect.

Section 5.05 Valuation of Account(s). The value of a Participant’s Accounts as of any
date shall equal the amounts theretofore credited to such Account(s), including any earnings
(positive or negative) deemed to be earned on each such Account(s) in accordance with Section
6.02, through the day preceding such date, less the amounts theretofore deducted from such
Accounts.



Section 5.06 Statement of Accounts. The Committee shall provide to each Participant,
not less frequently than annually, a statement in such form as the Committee deems desirable
setting forth the balance standing to the credit of each Participant in each Account.



ARTICLE VI




VESTING

ARTICLE VIII




MISCELLANEOUS




Section 8.01 Amendment and Termination. The Plan may be amended, suspended,
discontinued or terminated at any time by the Committee; provided, however, that no such amendment,
suspension, discontinuance or termination shall reduce or in any manner adversely affect the rights
of any Participant with respect to benefits that are payable or may become payable under the Plan
based upon the balance of the Participant’s Account(s) as of the effective date of such amendment,
suspension, discontinuance or termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may make
all technical, administrative, regulatory and compliance amendments to the Plan that the Committee
deems necessary and appropriate so that the Plan meets the requirements of section 409A of the Code
and its corresponding regulations.




Section 8.02 Claims Procedures.



(a) Claim. A person who believes that he is being denied a benefit to which he is
entitled under the Plan (hereinafter referred to as a “Claimant”) may file a written
request for such benefit with the Committee, setting forth the claim.



(b) Claim Decision. Upon receipt of a claim, the Committee shall advise the Claimant
that a reply shall be forthcoming within 90 days and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such
period. The Committee may, however, extend the reply period for an additional 90 days for
reasonable cause. If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Claimant shall be provided a
written opinion, using language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth:




(i) The specific reason or reasons for such denial;



(ii) The specific reference to pertinent provisions of this Plan on which such denial is
based;



(iii) A description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to
perfect his claim and an explanation why such material or such information is necessary;



(iv) Appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit the
claim for review, including the time limits for requesting a review under subsection (c) and for
review under subsection (d) hereof; and



(v) The Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following an
adverse benefit determination on review.



(c) Request for Review. Within 60 days after the receipt by the Claimant of the
written opinion described above, the Claimant may request in writing that the Committee review the
determination of the Committee. The Claimant or his duly authorized representative
may, but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing
for consideration by the Committee. If the Claimant does not request a review of the initial
determination within such 60-day period, the Claimant shall be barred and stopped from challenging
the determination.


 


11









 





(d) Review of Decision. Within 60 days after the Committee’s receipt of a request for
review, it shall review the initial determination. After considering all materials presented by
the Claimant, the Committee shall render a written opinion, written in a manner calculated to be
understood by the Claimant, setting forth (i) the specific reason or reasons for the decision, (ii)
the specific references to the pertinent provisions of this Plan on which the decision is based,
(iii) a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive upon request and free of charge, access
to and copies of all documents and other information relevant to the claim, and (iv) the Claimant’s
right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit
determination on review. If special circumstances require that the 60 day time period be extended,
the Committee shall so notify the Claimant and shall render the decision as soon as possible, but
no later than 120 days after receipt of the request for review.



Section 8.03 Designation of Beneficiary. In the Beneficiary Designation Agreement,
each Participant may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive any payments that may be
made following the Participant’s death. Such designation may be changed or canceled by the
Participant at any time without the consent of any such Beneficiary. Any such designation, change
or cancellation must be made in the Beneficiary Designation Agreement, which may be subsequently
changed, and shall not be effective until received by the Committee, or its designee. If no
Beneficiary has been named in the Beneficiary Designation Agreement, or the designated Beneficiary
or Beneficiaries shall have predeceased the Participant, the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s
designated Beneficiary under the Qualified Plan in which the Participant last actively
participated, and if no Beneficiary has been designated under such Qualified Plan, the Beneficiary
shall be the Participant’s estate. If a Participant designates more than one Beneficiary, the
interests of such Beneficiaries shall be paid in equal shares, unless the Participant has
specifically designated otherwise.



Section 8.04 Limitation of Participant’s Right. Nothing in this Plan shall be
construed as conferring upon any Participant any right to continue in the employment of the
Employer, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Employer to terminate the employment of any
Participant and/or to take any personnel action affecting any Participant without regard to the
effect that such action may have upon such Participant as a recipient or prospective recipient of
benefits under the Plan. Any amounts payable hereunder shall not be deemed salary or other
compensation to a Participant for the purposes of computing benefits to which the Participant may
be entitled under any qualified retirement arrangement established by the Employer for the benefit
of its employees.



Section 8.05 No Limitation on Employer Actions. Nothing contained in the Plan shall
be construed to prevent the Employer from taking any action that is deemed by it to be appropriate
or in its best interest. No Participant, Beneficiary, or other person shall have any claim against
the Employer as a result of such action.


 


12









 





Section 8.06 Obligations to Employer. To the extent permitted under section 409A of
the Code, if the Committee acting on the Employer’s behalf determines that any Participant has
outstanding any debt, obligation, or other liability representing an amount owing to or guaranteed
by the Employer, that Participant’s benefits shall be calculated in accordance with all other
applicable provisions of this Plan, then reduced by the amount of such debt, obligation, or other
liability prior to payment of benefits to the Participant pursuant to Article VIII above.



Section 8.07 Nonalienation of Benefits. Except as expressly provided herein, no
Participant or Beneficiary shall have the power or right to transfer (otherwise than by the laws of
descent and distribution), alienate, or otherwise encumber the Participant’s interest under the
Plan. The Employer’s obligations under this Plan are not assignable or transferable except to (a)
any corporation or partnership that acquires all or substantially all of the Employer’s assets or
(b) any corporation or partnership into which the Employer may be merged or consolidated. The
provisions of the Plan shall inure to the benefit of each Participant and the Participant’s
Beneficiaries, heirs, executors, administrators or successors in interest.



Section 8.08 Protective Provisions. Each Participant shall cooperate with the
Employer by furnishing any and all information requested by the Employer in order to facilitate the
payment of benefits hereunder, and taking such other relevant action as may be requested by the
Employer. If a Participant refuses to cooperate, the Employer shall have no further obligation to
the Participant under the Plan, other than payment to such Participant of the then current vested
balance of the Participant’s Account in accordance with the Plan.



Section 8.09 Withholding Taxes. The Employer may make such provisions and take such
actions as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes that the Employer
is required to withhold by any law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether Federal,
state or local, to withhold in connection with any benefits under the Plan, including, but not
limited to, the withholding of appropriate sums from any amount otherwise payable to the
Participant (or his Beneficiary). Each Participant (or his Beneficiary), however, shall be
responsible for the payment of all individual tax liabilities relating to any such benefits.



Section 8.10 Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an
“unfunded” plan of deferred compensation for Participants. Benefits payable hereunder shall be
payable out of the general assets of the Employer, and no segregation of any assets whatsoever for
such benefits shall be made. Notwithstanding any segregation of assets or transfer to a grantor
trust, with respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant, nothing contained herein shall
give any such Participant any rights to assets that are greater than those of a general creditor of
the Employer.



Section 8.11 Trust Fund. The Employer shall be responsible for the payment of all
benefits provided under the Plan. At its discretion, the Employer may establish one or more
trusts, with such trustees as the Board may approve, for the purpose of assisting in the payment of
such benefits. Although such a trust shall be irrevocable, its assets shall be held for payment to
all of the Employer’s general creditors in the event of insolvency. To the extent any benefits
provided under the Plan are paid from any such trust, the Employer shall have no further obligation
to pay them. If not paid from the trust, such benefits shall remain the obligation of the
Employer.


 


13









 





Section 8.12 Severability. If any provision of this Plan is held unenforceable, the
remainder of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable
provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the
Plan.



Section 8.13 Successors. The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the
benefit of the Employer and its successors and assigns. The term successors as used herein shall
include any corporate or other business entity which shall, whether by merger, consolidation,
purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Employer,
and successors of any such corporation or other business entity.



Section 8.14 Governing Law. The Plan shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without reference to the principles of
conflict of laws.



Section 8.15 Headings. Headings are inserted in this Plan for convenience of
reference only and are to be ignored in the construction of the provisions of the Plan.



Section 8.16 Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof
shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the person or
persons may require. As the context may require, the singular may read as the plural and the
plural as the singular.



Section 8.17 Notice. Any notice required or permitted under the Plan shall be
sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by registered or certified mail. 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. Mailed notice to the
Committee shall be directed to CSS’ address. Mailed notice to a Participant or Beneficiary shall
be directed to the individual’s last known address in the Employer’s records.



Section 8.18 Incapacity. In the event that any amount becomes payable under the Plan
to a person who, in the sole judgment of the Committee, is considered by reason of physical or
mental condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the Committee may direct that such
payment be made to any person found by the Committee, in its sole judgment, to have assumed the
care of such person. Any payment made pursuant to such determination shall constitute a full
release and discharge of the Committee and the Employer.



Section 8.19 Section 409A. The Plan is intended to comply with the applicable
requirements of section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations and related guidance
with respect to all amounts subject to such requirements, and shall be maintained in accordance
with such requirements with respect to those amounts that are subject to such requirements.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, distributions from the Plan with respect to
amounts subject to the requirements of section 409A of the Code may only be made in a manner, and
upon an event, permitted by section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of the Plan
would cause a conflict with the requirements of section 409A of the Code, or would cause the
administration of the Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the
Code, such provision shall be deemed null and void to the extent permitted by applicable law.
In no event shall a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.
