form. An alternative benefit payment form, if approved by the Committee, shall commence as of the same date the monthly retirement benefit otherwise would have commenced pursuant to the provisions of

installments for the life of a Participant or Disabled Participant and thereafter for the life of his or her Spouse, if the Spouse survives, where (1) the identity of such Spouse shall be
established on the date of which benefit payments first are scheduled to commence under this form to the Participant or Disabled Participant and thereafter shall not be changed for any reason
whatsoever, and (2) the amount of the monthly benefit payable to such surviving Spouse at the death of the Participant or Disabled Participant shall equal the applicable percentage, as elected,
of the monthly benefit that was payable to the Participant the Participant during his or her lifetime. A Participant or Disabled Participant alternatively may request that his or her benefit to be
paid in the form of a series of six (6) annual installment payments, with the first installment due on the same date the monthly retirement benefit otherwise would have commenced pursuant to
the provisions of Article 2 or 3, as appropriate. The installment benefit payment form will be paid on a level amortization basis, including principal and interest, and interest will accrue at
the rate of seven percent (7%) on any unpaid balance related to the installment payments. A request by a Participant or Disabled Participant for the payment of his or her Plan benefit in one of the
alternative forms set forth in this Article 5 shall be made in writing and shall be filed before the date as of which his or her benefit payments are scheduled to commence under this Plan. The
