 Article 1. Introduction 
 1.1 Background and History 
 The Walt Disney Company (“Company”) previously established The Walt Disney Productions and Associated
Companies Key Employees Deferred Compensation and Retirement Plan (“Plan”) to provide retirement income to certain employees and to equalize the benefits of employees participating in certain retirement plans, including the Disney Salaried
Service Pension Plan and the Disney Salaried Supplemental Pension Plan, both of which have been merged into the Disney Salaried Retirement Plan (“Retirement Plan”). The Plan was last restated effective as of May 1, 1984. (Capitalized
terms with special meanings are defined in Article 2 of this Plan.) 
 1.2 Restatement of Plan 
 Effective as of January 1, 2009, the Company hereby amends and restates the Plan as reflected herein to bring the Plan into compliance with Code section 409A and the
final Treasury Regulations thereunder. The provisions of this restatement shall be effective as of January 1, 2009, except as specifically provided in this document. Nothing contained in this restatement shall be interpreted as amending any
provision under the Key Plan Part I. 
 1.3 Purpose and Applicability of the Plan 
 The Company desires to provide certain designated key management and highly compensated Employees with enhanced retirement benefits over and above those provided under the applicable portion(s) of the Retirement Plan
due to the application of the limits under Code sections 415 and 401(a)(17). The purpose of the Plan document is to set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which these benefits are accrued and to describe the nature and extent of the
employees’ rights to these accrued benefits. 
 Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Plan restatement are applicable only to
Eligible Employees (other than Grandfathered Participants) who have a Payment Event on or after January 1, 2009. Unless otherwise explicitly provided in this Plan restatement, the Plan provisions, operation and administration in effect prior to
this restatement shall continue to govern the terms and conditions of the Plan prior to January 1, 2009. The benefits of Grandfathered Participants shall be determined solely under the provisions of Key Plan Part I. 
 1.4 Status of the Plan 
  

	(a)	 Nonqualified Plan. The Plan is not qualified within the meaning of Code section 401(a). The Plan is intended to provide an unfunded and unsecured
promise to pay money in the future and thus not to involve, pursuant to Treasury Regulations section 1.83-3(e), the transfer of “property” for purposes of Code section 83. Likewise, benefits credited under this Plan are not intended to
confer an economic benefit upon the Participant nor is the right to the receipt of future benefits under the Plan intended to result in any Participant, Beneficiary or alternate payee being in constructive receipt of any amount so as to result in
any benefit due under the Plan 



  

 1 









	 	 
being includible in the gross income of any Participant, Beneficiary or alternate payee in advance of the date on which payment of any benefit due under the
Plan is actually made. For tax purposes and purposes of Title I of ERISA, the Plan is intended to be an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan covering certain designated employees who are within a select group of key management or highly
compensated employees. 


  

	(b)	Compliance with Code Section 409A. This Plan is intended to comply with Code section 409A and related regulatory guidance. Therefore, the Plan shall be administered
and interpreted in a manner consistent with that purpose. The Committee shall have full authority to take any and all actions as it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out this intent and purpose of the Plan. 

  

	(c)	Additional or Special Arrangements. The Committee, the Company, or any other Employer may, in its sole discretion, provide by a separate written agreement that the benefits
payable to any individual who is also an Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the Plan, as the same may be modified in respect of that Eligible Employee under such agreement. Any such agreement may
provide such Eligible Employee with additional years of service, credit for service with affiliated companies, a different vesting schedule, an individualized formula for the determination of such Eligible Employee’s benefit, or such other
modification (which may constitute an enhancement or limitation) of the benefits provided hereby as the Committee, Company, or other Employer shall specify. Further, any separate agreement may provide for benefits which may be partially or wholly in
addition to or in lieu of any benefits provided hereunder, and which may be greater, less than or equal to any benefits provided hereunder and any such benefits may or may not be calculated or otherwise determined by reference to the benefits
provided by the Plan or by reference to, or by incorporation by reference of, any of the terms or provisions of the Plan. However, deferrals of compensation under this Plan and such other separate written agreement, if any, shall be aggregated with
respect to the Eligible Employee to the extent required under Code section 409A and related regulations for purposes of assuring compliance with those rules. 

  

	(d)	No Guarantees of Intended Tax Treatment. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted so as to satisfy the requirements for the intended tax treatment under the Code
described in this Plan section. However, the treatment of benefits earned under and benefits received from this Plan, for purposes of the Code and other applicable tax laws (such as state income and employment tax laws), shall be determined under
the Code and other applicable tax laws and no guarantee or commitment is made to any Participant, Beneficiary or alternate payee with respect to the treatment of accruals under or benefits payable from the Plan for purposes of the Code and other
applicable tax laws.

with adjustments to compensate for time or frequency of receipt, using the interest rates, mortality tables, and other actuarial assumptions provided in the definition of “Actuarial Equivalent” under the Retirement Plan, as adjusted to
comply with any required law changes. At any given time, 

  

	 	(1)	The same actuarial assumptions and methods shall be used in valuing each annuity payment option, in determining whether the payments are actuarially equivalent; and


  

	 	(2)	Such assumptions must be reasonable.

survived by the Joint/Contingent Annuitant, the monthly benefit that is payable shall be paid to the Joint/Contingent Annuitant for the remainder of the guaranteed payment period. If the Joint/Contingent Annuitant dies after the Participant and
before the end of the guaranteed payment period, then Actuarial Equivalent present value of the remaining guaranteed payments shall be paid to the estate of the Joint/Contingent Annuitant. If the Joint/Contingent Annuitant dies before the

	 	(A)	The Employee will not provide any additional services for the Company or any Affiliate after a certain date; or 

  

	 	(B)	The level of bona fide services performed by the Employee after a certain date will permanently decrease to no more than 40 percent of the average level of bona fide services

provided under applicable law or regulatory guidance. 
 2.5 Severability

 Article 3. Participation, Service and Vesting 
 3.1 Participation 
 Each Eligible Employee whose benefit under the applicable portion of the Retirement Plan, for any
calendar year, is limited by Code sections 415 and/or 401(a)(17) shall be a Participant in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Employee who becomes an Eligible Employee pursuant to an agreement approved by the Committee shall become a
Participant as of the date, if any, specified in such agreement or otherwise specified by the Committee. Each individual who is a Participant in the Plan on the date immediately preceding January 1, 2009 shall continue as a Participant in the
Plan in accordance with the terms of the Plan (or, in the case of a Grandfathered Participant, the terms of Key Plan Part I). 
 3.2 Duration 

 An individual who becomes a Participant under the Plan shall remain a Participant for as long as he remains an Employee or is entitled to receive any
benefits hereunder. 
 3.3 Transfers 
  

	(a)	Transfers to Eligible Employee Status. An Employee who transfers employment such that he becomes an Eligible Employee and satisfies the requirements of Plan section 3.1
as of the date of transfer shall be a Participant in the Plan as of the date of transfer. 

  

	(b)	Transfers from Eligible Employee Status. To the extent a Participant transfers employment to an Affiliate and is no longer an Eligible Employee: 

  

	 	(1)	The Participant may become vested in his Retirement Income pursuant to Plan section 3.4, even though he is no longer an Eligible Employee. 

  

	 	(2)	The Participant shall, if he is or becomes vested in his Retirement Income, remain a Participant in the Plan until the date his vested Retirement Income is distributed from the
Plan. 

  

	 	(3)	To the extent the Participant has no vested interest in his Retirement Income under the Plan but remains employed by an Affiliate, the Participant shall remain a Participant in the
Plan until the date he ceases to be employed by the Company and all Affiliates at a time when he has no vested Retirement Income under the Plan. If he remains employed by an Affiliate until his Retirement Income under the Plan vests, his status as a
Participant shall be determined under paragraph (2). 

 3.4 Vesting 
  

	(a)	 Vested Benefit. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan section, a Participant who is vested under the Retirement Plan shall be 100 percent vested in his
Retirement Income and shall be entitled to a benefit from the Plan. If a Participant has a 



  

 11

	(a)	Default Time of Payment. Except as otherwise provided for under the terms of the Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to a payment of Retirement Income under the Plan as
of the earlier Payment Date determined below: 

  

	 	(1)	If the Payment Event is the later of the Participant’s Separation from Service or attainment of age 55; then the Payment Date is the first day of the second calendar month

Employee and the Specified Employee’s Payment Date, as determined under subsection (a)(1). 

  

	(c)	Earlier Payments. An earlier payment may be made, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, only to the extent that a permissible Code section 409A and related

for purposes of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(c)(2), is less than the Code section 402(g)(1)(B) limit as of a Benefit Calculation Date, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, distribute the Participant’s Retirement Income to

 Article 6. Transfers, Rehires and Other Special Situations 
 6.1 Effect and Applicability 
 This Article provides additional
information and rules covering special situations under which Retirement Income may become payable under Article 4 and Article 5. In the event of a conflict between a provision under Article 4 and Article 5 and a provision of this Article, the
provision of this Article shall govern with respect to the Participants or circumstances specified in this Article and the provisions of Article 4 and Article 5 shall continue to govern with respect to other Participants and circumstances.

 6.2 Code Section 409A Aggregation Rules 
 The
Company has the authority to provide to any individual or individuals selected by the Company or Committee benefits under the Plan or under a separate agreement, method, program or other arrangement that constitutes a nonaccount balance plan. To the
extent any Participant is entitled to a deferral of compensation under any such nonaccount balance plan, then, only to the extent required by Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations, the separate nonaccount balance plan shall be
aggregated with the Plan. 
 6.3 No Duplication of Benefits 
  

	(a)	Key Plan Part I Benefits. In determining the Participant’s Retirement Income at any time, to the extent a Participant is entitled to a benefit under the Key Plan
Part I as a result of also being a Grandfathered Participant, the amount of Retirement Income payable to a Participant with respect to a Payment Event shall be reduced as of the Benefit Calculation Date by the Actuarially Equivalent lump sum
present value of the Participant’s benefit under the Key Plan Part I, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-6(a)(3)(i), so that the Participant shall not receive a duplication of benefits under the Plan.


  

	(b)	Post-Payment Event Accruals. In determining the Participant’s Retirement Income at any time after a Payment Event, the Participant’s prior service and
earnings may be taken into account to the extent such service and earnings are taken into account when determining a Participant’s Retirement Plan Benefit following such Payment Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the
amount of any additional Retirement Income payable to a Participant with respect to a new Payment Event shall be reduced by the Actuarially Equivalent value of the Participant’s vested Retirement Income determined as of the Benefit Calculation
Date for any prior Payment Event increased at the Interest Rate, so that the Participant shall not receive a duplication of benefits under the Plan. 

 6.4 Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit 
  

	(a)	Limited Applicability. The provisions of this section apply only if a Participant had Accumulated Contributions under the Plan as in effect on April 30, 1984, and the
Accumulated Contributions have not been distributed as of December 31, 2008. 

  

 16 









	(b)	Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit Payable to a Participant 

  

	 	(1)	Amount of Benefit. An Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit shall be payable to the Participant only if and to the extent that, as of the Benefit Calculation Date, the
Participant’s Accumulated Contributions exceeds the Actuarial Equivalent present value of the Participant’s Past Service Frozen Benefit. 

  

	 	(2)	Time and Form of Payment. Any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit payable to the Participant under this subsection shall be paid in a single sum as of the Payment Date,
which is the first day of the second calendar month following the Benefit Calculation Date; provided, however, that in the case of a Specified Employee, the Payment Date shall in no event be earlier than the first day of the month coinciding with or
next following the date that is six months after the Specified Employee’s Separation from Service. In the case of a Specified Employee, the missed payments shall be adjusted at the Interest Rate for the period between the Payment Date that
would have applied had the Participant not been a Specified Employee and the Specified Employee’s Payment Date. The Participant may not elect any different form of payment of the Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit.


  

	(c)	Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit Payable to a Beneficiary 

  

	 	(1)	Amount of Benefit 

  

	 	(A)	Participant’s Death before Separation from Service. Prior to the Participant’s Separation from Service, an Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit shall be payable
to the Participant’s Beneficiary only if and to the extent that, as of the Benefit Calculation Date (i.e., the first day of the calendar month following the Participant’s death), the Accumulated Contributions exceeds the Actuarial
Equivalent present value of the Participant’s Past Service Frozen Benefit. 

  

	 	(B)	Participant’s Death after Retirement Plan Benefits Commence. If, as of the date that all benefit payments with respect to the Participant from the Retirement Plan cease
(which shall be the Benefit Calculation Date for this purpose), clause (i) exceeds clause (ii), then such excess shall be distributed to the Participant’s Beneficiary. For purposes of this subparagraph, clause (i) and
clause (ii) shall be defined as follows: 

  

	 	(i)	The Participant’s Accumulated Contributions that have not been previously distributed as of the Benefit Calculation Date. 

  

	 	(ii)	 The Actuarial Equivalent present value of all benefits paid from the Retirement Plan, excluding the Flat Benefit (as defined in the 



  

 17 









	 	 
Retirement Plan), to all persons and entities with respect to the Participant, including after the Participant’s death, through the Benefit Calculation
Date. 


  

	 	(2)	Time and Form of Payment. Any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit payable to one or more Beneficiaries under this subsection shall be paid in a single sum as of the
Payment Date, which is the first day of the fourth calendar month following the Benefit Calculation Date. The Beneficiary may not elect any different form of payment of the Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit. 

  

	 	(3)	Beneficiary Determination. For purposes of determining the Beneficiary entitled to receive any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit, the Beneficiary of the Participant
shall be: 

  

	 	(A)	The person, persons or entity named by the Participant by written designation under the Retirement Plan; or 

  

	 	(B)	If the Participant has not made such a designation or the person, persons or entity so designated predecease the Participant, the Beneficiary shall be determined under Plan
section 7.3, disregarding the last sentence thereof; or 

  

	 	(C)	If the Participant has no survivors in any of the categories specified under Plan section 7.3, the Participant’s estate or, if the Participant’s estate has been
settled, the estate of the last Beneficiary to die. 

  

	(d)	Aggregation of Benefits for Cash-Out Purposes. Except as provided in this subsection, the payment of any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit shall not affect in any way
the determination of the amount, time or form of payment of any Retirement Income or Pre-Commencement Death Benefit payable under any other provision of this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing: 

  

	 	(1)	Any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit shall be aggregated with any Retirement Income benefits payable to the Participant for determining whether such benefits may be
cashed-out under Plan section 5.4 only if both such benefits have the same Payment Date; and 

  

	 	(2)	Any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit shall be aggregated with any Pre-Commencement Death Benefit payable to the Beneficiary for determining whether such benefits may be
cashed-out under Plan section 7.4 only if the Payment Date of any Excess Accumulated Contribution Benefit is the same or later than the Payment Date of the Pre-Commencement Death Benefit. 

  

	(e)	Definitions Applicable to this Plan Section. In addition to the terms defined in Plan section 2.1 or elsewhere in this Plan, whenever used in this Plan section, the
following terms shall have the respective meanings set forth below.

Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine from time to time. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee, the interest rate shall be based on the weighted average prime rate of Bank of America, as determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion. Such interest shall be determined at the end of each calendar year. Interest shall be credited on the Participant’s average balance during the calendar year just ended. No interest shall be credited for any period following the
Participant’s Separation from Service or, if earlier, the Participant’s death. 

  

	 	(2)	“Past Service Frozen Benefit” means the Participant’s Pre-May 1984 Service Benefit, as determined under the Retirement Plan. 

 6.5 Transfers from Nonaccount Plans 
  

	(a)	General Rule. Except as otherwise described in this Plan section, in calculating a Participant’s Retirement Income at any time after the Participant transfers to an
Employer from another Affiliate in which the Participant accrued a benefit under another nonaccount balance nonqualified plan, his prior service and earnings shall not be taken into account in determining Retirement Income under this Plan, even if
such service and earnings are taken into account when determining his Retirement Plan Benefit. 

  

	(b)	Transfers from ABC. Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, the Participant’s Retirement Income under this Plan at any time after the Participant transfers

	 	(1)	If, as of any Benefit Calculation Date, the Participant’s Add-On Benefit is greater than his All-Service Benefit, then the Participant’s Retirement Income shall be
determined under the terms of this Plan without adjustment for the Participant’s service and earnings with a BEP Employer. 

  

	 	(2)	If, as of any Benefit Calculation Date, the Participant’s All-Service Benefit is greater than his Add-On Benefit, the Participant’s Retirement Income shall be the
Participant’s All-Service Benefit reduced by the Participant’s Retirement Income, as defined in and determined under the BEP. Because it is the express intent of this Plan that there be no prohibited substitution of benefits in violation
of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(f), Retirement Income under this Plan and Retirement Income under the BEP are payable only at the same time and only in forms that are Actuarially Equivalent life annuities, applying the same reasonable
actuarial assumptions and methods across the Plan, the Retirement Plan, the BEP and the ABC Plan. 

  

 19 









	(c)	Definitions Applicable to this Plan Section. In addition to the terms defined in Plan section 2.1 or elsewhere in this Plan, whenever used in this Plan section, the
following terms shall have the respective meanings set forth below.

 For purpose of determining these benefits, service and
earnings shall be measured using the appropriate terms, such as, but not limited to, Compensation or Credited Service, used under the benefit formulas of the relevant plans. 
  

	 	(3)	“All-Service Benefit” means, with respect to a Participant who transfers to an Employer from a BEP Employer, the Participant’s Retirement Income under this
Plan and Retirement Plan Benefit under the Retirement Plan taking into account the Participant’s service and earnings with all Employers and BEP Employers. For purpose of determining these benefits, service and earnings shall be measured using
the appropriate terms, such as, but not limited to, Compensation or Credited Service, used under the benefit formulas of the relevant plans. 

  

	 	(4)	“BEP” means the Benefit Equalization Plan of ABC Inc., a nonqualified, nonaccount balance plan under Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(c)(2).


  

	 	(5)	“BEP Employer” means an Employer, as that term is defined in the BEP, as opposed to an Employer defined under this Plan. 

  

 20 








 6.6 Additional Retirement Income 
 If a Participant has a Payment Event and then accrues additional vested Retirement Income under the Plan, the additional vested Retirement Income shall be payable to the Participant as described in this Plan section.
The time and form of payment for any additional Retirement Income that is payable shall be determined in accordance with the terms of subsections (a) and (b) as follows: 
  

	(a)	Continued Employment After Change in Control. To the extent a Participant is entitled to additional Retirement Income following a Change in Control as a result of continued

Service accruals or additional Retirement Income as a result of either: 

  

	 	(1)	Becoming reemployed as an Employee of an Employer (or reemployed by an Affiliate and later transfers employment to an Employer) after his Separation from Service (or his termination
pursuant to the Key Plan Part I), or 

  

	 	(2)	Increasing the level of bona fide service he provides as an Employee of an Employer following a Separation from Service, such that he may have a subsequent Separation from Service,


 the Participant’s Benefit Calculation Date (and Payment Date) for such additional Retirement Income shall be
January 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such additional Retirement Income accrues. The last payment of Retirement Income under this subsection shall occur on January 1 of the calendar year following the calendar
year in which the Participant ceases accruing additional Retirement Income. It is intended that the additional Retirement Income that becomes payable under this subsection shall not constitute a deferral of compensation for purposes of Code
section 409 because the additional Retirement Income will be paid under the short-term deferral rule of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(b)(4). 
 6.7 Permissible Delays or Accelerations 
 If the Company or Committee determines that a delay or an acceleration of a Participant’s
Retirement Income is permitted or required by Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations (e.g., a delay to comply with Code section 162(m) or an acceleration to pay employment taxes), the Company or the Committee may either
delay or accelerate the payment of a Participant’s Retirement Income in accordance with the terms of Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations in its sole discretion as it deems advisable. 
  

 21

Benefit Calculation Date that would be payable to a Joint/Contingent Annuitant if: 
  

	(a)	The Participant’s vested Retirement Income had commenced as of the Payment Date under Plan section 5.2(a)(1), disregarding any delay in the Payment Date because the
Participant was a Specified Employee as of the date of his death, 

  

	(b)	In the form of a 50% Joint and Survivor Annuity, and 

  

	(c)	The Participant died on the date following such commencement.

of the fourth calendar month next following the Beneficiary’s Payment Event. 

  

	(b)	Form of Payment of Death Benefit. The Pre-Commencement Death Benefit payable under this Article 7 shall be paid to the Beneficiary in the form of a Single Life Annuity.


  

	(c)	Catch-Up Payments. Once payments commence, the Plan shall provide the Participant with a one-time payment equal to the amount of missed payments between the Benefit
Calculation Date and the actual Payment Date. 

  

	(d)	Earlier Payments. An earlier payment may be made, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, only to the extent that a permissible Code section 409A and related
Treasury Regulations exception may be applied. 

  

	(e)	Delayed Commencement. If the payment or commencement of any benefit due under this Plan section is paid after the Beneficiary’s Payment Date, the benefit shall be paid

	(d)	The Participant’s surviving parents, if any, and if not, 

  

	(e)	The Participant’s surviving siblings, if any. 

 If there is more than
one Beneficiary in any category described above, any amounts payable shall be paid equally to all Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if the Participant has no survivors in any of the above categories, no Pre-Commencement
Death Benefit is payable from the Plan. 
 7.4 Cash-Out Payment of Pre-Commencement Death Benefit 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, if the Actuarially Equivalent lump sum present value of all nonqualified deferred compensation plan benefits
that the Beneficiary (or, to the extent applicable, all Beneficiaries entitled to a Pre-Commencement Death Benefit) is entitled to receive under all the nonaccount balance plans of the Company and all Affiliates, that must be aggregated for purposes
of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(c)(2), is less than the Code section 402(g)(1)(B) limit as of the Benefit Calculation Date, the Company may, in its sole discretion, distribute the Beneficiary’s Pre-Commencement Death Benefit
in the form of a single lump sum payment; provided, however, that all of the Beneficiary’s other nonaccount balance nonqualified plan benefits are also paid in a single lump sum payment as of the same date. 
  

 23 








 Article 8. Financing and Administration 
 8.1 Financing 
  

	(a)	General Creditors. The Plan constitutes a mere promise of the Employer to make payments in accordance with the terms of the Plan. This Plan does not give any Participant,
Joint/Contingent Annuitant or Beneficiary any interest, lien, or claim in or against any specific assets of the Company or any Affiliate. The Participant, Joint/Contingent Annuitant and/or Beneficiary shall have only the rights of general, unsecured
creditors of the Employer with respect to their rights under the Plan. 

  

	(b)	Allocation Among Employers. The obligation to pay benefits hereunder shall be the obligation of the Employers whose Employees are Participants entitled to benefits hereunder.
The Company and each Employer shall provide the benefits described in the Plan and allocable to such entity from its general assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the authority to allocate the total
liability to pay benefits under the Plan among the Employers in such manner and amounts as it deems appropriate. 

  

	(c)	Alternative Funding. The Company may, but shall not be required to, establish a grantor trust as a funding source for its obligations under the Plan. If such a trust is so
established, it shall be the intention of the Company that the trust shall constitute an unfunded arrangement for purposes of the Plan, such that the Plan shall continue to be an unfunded plan maintained for the purpose of providing deferred
compensation to a select group of management or highly compensated employees under ERISA. With respect to any Participant, the assets of the trust so established shall remain subject to the claims of the creditors of that Participant’s Employer
in the event of the Employer’s bankruptcy or insolvency. However, to the extent that funds placed in a trust and allocable to the benefits payable under the Plan are sufficient, the trust assets may be used to pay benefits under the Plan. If
such trust assets are not sufficient to pay all benefits due under the Plan, then the appropriate Employer shall have the obligation, and the Participant, Joint/Contingent Annuitant or Beneficiary who is due such benefits shall look to such Employer
to provide such benefits. 

 8.2 Plan Administrative Committee 
 The general administration of the Plan and the responsibility for carrying out the provisions of the Plan resides with the Committee. The members of the Committee shall be determined under the provisions of the
Retirement Plan. 
 8.3 Duties of Committee 
 The members
of the Committee shall elect a chairman from their number and a secretary who may be but need not be one of the members of the Committee; may appoint from their number such subcommittees with such powers as they shall determine; and may authorize
one or more of their number or any agent to execute or deliver any instrument or make any payment on their behalf. In addition, the Committee may retain counsel, employ agents, and provide for such 

  

 24 








 
clerical, accounting, actuarial and consulting services as it may require in carrying out the terms of the Plan; and may allocate among its members or
delegate all or such portion of the duties under the Plan, as it, in its sole discretion, shall decide. 
 8.4 Meetings 
 The Committee shall hold meetings upon such notice, at such place or places, and at such time or times as it may from time to time determine. 
 8.5 Actions by the Committee 
 Any act which the Plan authorizes or
requires the Committee to do may be done, if done at a meeting, by a majority of a quorum of members. A quorum is 50% of all members of the Committee then in office. The action of that majority expressed from time to time by a vote at a meeting
shall constitute the action of the Committee and shall have the same effect for all purposes as if assented to by all members of the Committee at the time in office. Alternatively, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Committee may be
done by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting. 
 8.6 Compensation and Bonding 
 No member of the Committee shall receive any compensation from the Plan for his services as such. Except as may otherwise be required by law, no bond or other security need be required of any member in that capacity
in any jurisdiction. 
 8.7 Establishment of Rules and Interpretation of Plan 
 The Committee shall have full discretionary power and authority as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the discretionary power to:

  

	(a)	Promulgate and enforce rules and regulations as it deems necessary or appropriate for the administration of the Plan; 

  

	(b)	Construe and interpret the Plan and decide all matters arising thereunder, including the right to remedy possible ambiguities, inconsistencies, and omissions and correct defects;


  

	(c)	Make factual determinations and decide all questions relating to individuals’ eligibility for participation or for benefits under the Plan, vesting, forfeitures, the amount,
manner and timing of payment of benefits, and the status of persons as Participants, Grandfathered Participants, Employees, Eligible Employees, Spouses, Domestic Partners, Joint/Contingent Annuitants, Beneficiaries and alternate payees; and


  

	(d)	Require any person to furnish such documentation, information, or other matter as the Committee may require for the proper administration of the Plan and as a prerequisite to any
payment or distribution by the Plan. 

  

 25 








 All decisions of the Committee relating to matters within its jurisdiction shall be final, conclusive, and binding. If,
pursuant to Plan section 8.3, the Committee delegates all or any portion of its duties under the Plan, the individual, entity, or group of persons to which duties have been delegated shall have the same discretionary power and authority as the
Committee unless the delegation specifically provides otherwise. 
 8.8 Limitation of Liability 
 Except as and to the extent otherwise provided by applicable law, no liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by the members of the Committee or by the
shareholders, directors, officers, or employees of the Company or an Affiliate under or by reason of any of the terms and conditions contained in the Plan or in any of the contracts procured pursuant thereto or implied therefrom. 
 8.9 Indemnification 
 To the maximum extent permitted by the
Company’s by-laws, as amended from time to time, the Company shall indemnify each member of the Committee, and each director, officer, and employee or agent of the Company or an Affiliate against any expenses and liabilities that such person
may incur as a result of any act or failure to act, made in good faith, by such person in relation to the Plan. 
 8.10 Claims Procedures 

 

	(a)	Every claim for benefits under the Plan by a person (hereinafter referred to as “Claimant”) or by a Claimant’s authorized representative shall be filed by submitting
to the person (“claim administrator”) designated by the Committee, a written application on a form designated by the Committee. The claim administrator shall process such application and approve or disapprove it. Claims for benefits under
the Plan shall be governed by subsections (b) through (f). Subsection (g) and Plan sections 8.11 and 8.12 shall apply to all claims under the Plan, including, but not limited to claims for benefits (both based on the terms of the Plan
and those based on an alleged violation of the law), claims for breach of fiduciary duty, and other claims that some aspect of the Plan’s operation, administration or design or some aspect of the Plan’s investments, is unlawful or violates
the terms of the Plan. 

  

	(b)	If a Claimant is denied any benefits under the Plan either in total or in an amount less than the full benefit to which he claims to be entitled, the claim administrator shall
advise the Claimant of the denial within 90 days after receipt of the claim by the claim administrator. The claim administrator shall furnish the Claimant with a written notice setting forth: 

  

	 	(1)	The computation of the Claimant’s benefit, if any; 

  

	 	(2)	The specific reason or reasons for the denial; 

  

	 	(3)	The specific Plan sections on which the denial is based; 

  

 26 









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

  

	 	(5)	A description of the Plan’s claim review procedures, the time limits under such procedures and a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA
section 502(a) following a denial of benefits on appeal. 

 If unforeseeable or special administrative problems or circumstances
require an extension of time for processing the claim, the claim administrator shall furnish a written notice to the Claimant prior to close of the 90-day period explaining why an extension of time is needed and the approximate date by which the
claim administrator expects to have processed the claim. In no event shall the claim administrator render a final decision on the validity of a claim later than 180 days after the claim administrator initially receives the claim. 
  

	(c)	Within 60 days of receipt of the information described in subsection (b), the Claimant or his duly authorized representative may file written appeal of the determination with
the Committee. As part of his appeal, the Claimant may submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim. 

  

	(d)	As long as the Claimant’s appeal is pending (including the 60-day period described in subsection (c)) the Claimant or his duly authorized representative shall be provided,
upon request and free of charge, access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim and may review pertinent Plan documents and may submit issues and comments in writing to the Committee.


  

	(e)	The Committee shall notify the Claimant in writing of the appeals decision (whether or not adverse) in written or electronic form within a reasonable period of time, but not later
than 60 days after the Committee’s receipt of the appeal. Notwithstanding, if the Committee determines that special circumstances (for example, the need to hold a hearing) require an extension of time, the Committee shall notify the
Claimant of the reason or reasons for the extension and of the date by which it expects to make its decision. This extended period shall not exceed 60 days from the end of the initial 60-day period. The Committee’s decision on appeal shall take
into account all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant and relevant to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.


  

	(f)	If the Committee decides to deny benefits on appeal, the Committee shall provide the Claimant in writing with: 

  

	 	(1)	The specific reason or reasons for the denial; 

  

	 	(2)	The specific Plan provisions on which the denial is made; 

  

 27 









	 	(3)	A statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim;
and 

  

	 	(4)	A statement regarding the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA section 5.02(a) following a denial of benefits on appeal. 

  

	(g)	Any person eligible to receive benefits under the Plan shall furnish to the claim administrator or the Committee any information or evidence requested by the claim administrator or
the Committee and reasonably required for the proper administration of the Plan. Failure on the part of any person to comply with any such request within a reasonable period of time shall be sufficient grounds for delay in the payment of any
benefits that may be due under the Plan until such information or evidence is received by the claim administrator or the Committee. If any person claiming benefits under the Plan makes a false statement that is material to the claim for benefits,
the claim administrator or the Committee may offset against future payments any amount paid to such person to which he was not entitled under the provisions of the Plan. 

 8.11 Limitation on Actions 
  

	(a)	Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, none of the following claims or action may be filed in any court unless and until the requirements of subsection (b) are
fully met. 

  

	 	(1)	A claim or action to recover benefits allegedly due under the provisions of the Plan or by reason of any law; 

  

	 	(2)	A claim or action to enforce rights under the Plan; 

  

	 	(3)	A claim or action to clarify rights to future benefits under the Plan; 

  

	 	(4)	Any other claim or action that 

  

	 	(A)	Relates to the Plan, and 

  

	 	(B)	Seeks a remedy, ruling, or judgment of any kind against the Plan or the Committee. 

  

	(b)	The requirements of this subsection are not met: 

  

	 	(1)	Until the Claimant (as defined in Plan section 8.10(a)) has exhausted the administrative review procedure set forth in Plan section 8.10; and 

  

	 	(2)	Unless such claim or action is filed in a court with jurisdiction over such claim or action no later than 36 months after: 

  

 28 









	 	(A)	In the case of a claim or action to recover benefits, the date the first benefit payment was actually made or was allegedly due whichever is earlier; 

  

	 	(B)	In the case of a claim or action to enforce a right, the date the Committee or its delegate first denied the Claimant’s request to exercise such right, regardless of whether
such denial occurred during administrative review pursuant to Plan section 8.10; 

  

	 	(C)	In the case of a claim or action to clarify rights to future benefits, the date the Committee first repudiated its alleged obligation to provide such future benefits, regardless of
whether such repudiation occurred during administrative review pursuant to Plan section 8.10; or 

  

	 	(D)	In the case of any other claim or action described in subsection (a)(4), above, the earliest date on which the claimant knew or should have known of the material facts on which
such claim or action is based; 

 provided that if a request for administrative review pursuant to Plan section 8.10 is
pending before the claims administrator designated by the Committee to review such claims when the 36-month period described in this paragraph (2) expires, the deadline for filing such claim or action in a court with proper jurisdiction shall
be extended to the date that is 60 calendar days after the final denial of the claim on administrative review. 
  

	 	(3)	The period described in paragraph (2), above, is hereafter referred to as the “Applicable Limitations Period.” The Applicable Limitations Period replaces and
supersedes any limitations period that might otherwise be deemed applicable under state or federal law in the absence of this Plan section 8.11. Except as provided in the following two sentences, a claim or action filed after the expiration of
the Applicable Limitations Period shall be deemed time-barred. The Committee shall have the discretion to extend the Applicable Limitations Period upon a showing of exceptional circumstances that, in the opinion of the Committee, provide good cause
for extension. The exercise of this discretion is committed solely to the Committee and is not subject to review. 

 8.12 Class Action Forum

  

	(a)	To the fullest extent permitted by law, any putative class action lawsuit brought in whole or in part under ERISA section 502 (or any successor provision) and relating to the
Plan, the lawfulness of any Plan provision, the administration of the Plan, the management, investment or handling of Plan assets, or the performance or non-performance of Plan fiduciaries or administrators shall be filed in one of the following
jurisdictions: 

  

 29 









	 	(1)	The jurisdiction in which the Plan is principally administered, or 

  

	 	(2)	The jurisdiction in which the largest number of putative class members reside (or if that jurisdiction cannot be determined, the jurisdiction in which the largest number of class
members is reasonably believed to reside). 

  

	(b)	If any putative class action within the scope of subsection (a) is filed in a jurisdiction other than one of those described in subsection (a), or if any non-class action
filed in such a jurisdiction is subsequently amended or altered to include class action allegations, then the Plan, all parties to such action that are related to the Plan (such as a Plan fiduciary, administrator, or party in interest), and all
alleged Participants and Beneficiaries shall take all necessary steps to have the action removed to, transferred to, or re-filed in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a). Such steps may include, but are not limited to:


  

	 	(1)	A joint motion to transfer the action, or 

  

	 	(2)	A joint motion to dismiss the action without prejudice to its re-filing in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a), with any applicable time limits or statutes of
limitations applied as if the suit or class action allegation had originally been filed or asserted in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a) at the same time it was filed or asserted in a jurisdiction not described therein.


  

	(c)	The provisions of this Plan section 8.12 shall be waived if no party invokes them within 120 days of the filing of a putative class action or assertion of class action
allegations. 

  

	(d)	Nothing in this Plan section 8.12 shall relieve any putative class member of any obligation existing under the Plan or by law to exhaust all administrative remedies before
initiating litigation. 

 8.13 Records 
 The
records of an Employer or Affiliate with respect to length of employment, employment history, base pay, absences, and all other relevant matters may be conclusively relied on by the Committee.

 Article 9. Amendment and Termination 
 9.1 Amendments 
 The Company must necessarily and does hereby reserve the right to amend, modify, or terminate the
Plan at any time by action of its Board. The Committee in its sole discretion shall have the power to amend the Plan to: 
  

	(a)	Comply with laws and regulations, or as otherwise may be desirable when prompted by a change in law or regulation; and 

  

	(b)	Make any other change that may be necessary or desirable provided any amendment adopted pursuant to this Plan section 9.1 shall not increase the Company’s annual expense
by more than five (5) million dollars. 

 Any material amendment shall be in writing and executed by a duly authorized officer of the
Company or a member of the Committee. An amendment to the Plan may modify its terms in any respect whatsoever, and may include, without limitation, a permanent or temporary freezing of the Plan such that the Plan shall remain in effect with respect
to existing accrued benefits without permitting any new benefit accruals. All Participants and Beneficiaries shall be bound by any amendment. 
 9.2
Termination of Plan 
 The Company, through action of the Board, reserves the right to discontinue and terminate the Plan at any time, for any reason. Any
action to terminate the Plan shall be taken by the Board in the form of a written Plan amendment executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company. If the Plan is terminated, such discontinuance or termination shall not have the effect of
decreasing the level of benefits which a Participant would be entitled to receive under Article 5 if he incurred a Separation from Service with the Company and all Affiliates on the later of: 
  

	(a)	The date the resolution to terminate and discontinue the Plan is adopted; or 

  

	(b)	The date the termination and discontinuance is effective. 

 Vested
Retirement Income and any Pre-Commencement Death Benefits shall be distributed as soon as practicable if such distribution is permitted because the Plan’s termination and liquidation meets the requirements of Treasury Regulations
section 1.409A-3(j)(4) and, if such requirements are not met, at the earliest time otherwise permitted under the terms of the Plan in accordance with Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations. Such termination shall be binding on
all Participants and all other persons. 
 9.3 Successors 
 In case of the merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution or reorganization of an Employer, or the sale by an Employer of all or substantially all of its assets, provision may be made by written agreement between the Company and any
successor corporation acquiring or 

  

 31 








 
receiving a substantial part of the Employer’s assets, whereby the Plan shall be continued by the successor. If the Plan is to be continued by the
successor, then effective as of the date of the reorganization or transfer, the successor corporation shall be substituted for the Employer under the Plan. To the extent applicable, such written agreement may also specify no later than the closing
date of an asset purchase transaction, whether Employees covered by the transaction shall incur a Separation from Service. The substitution of a successor corporation for an Employer shall not in any way be considered a termination of the Plan.

 9.4 Prohibition on Changes Due to Code Section 409A 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Board nor the Committee may amend or terminate the Plan in any manner that the Board or the Committee determines in its sole discretion and in accordance with the advice of counsel, violates the
applicable provisions of Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations, including, but not limited to, the applicable time and form of payment requirements, the applicable prohibitions on accelerations, and the plan termination and
liquidation provisions. 
 9.5 Additional Participating Employers 
  

	(a)	Adoption. With the consent of the Company, any Affiliate may adopt the Plan for its Eligible Employees and thereby become an Employer under the Plan. An Affiliate adopting
the Plan shall compile and submit all information required by the Committee with reference to its Eligible Employees. An entity will be considered to have adopted the Plan with the consent of the Company if it takes significant action that is
consistent with the adoption of the Plan, the Board or Committee is aware of the action, and neither objects to the action. 

  

	(b)	Crediting of Prior Service. If an Affiliate adopts the Plan in accordance with subsection (a), or if any persons become Employees of an Employer as the result of
merger or consolidation or as the result of acquisition of all or part of the assets or business of another company, the Company shall determine to what extent, if any, previous service with the Affiliate or acquired business shall be recognized
under the Plan. 

  

	(c)	Withdrawal by Affiliate. Any Employer may withdraw its participation in the Plan on appropriate action by it. In addition, an Employer will automatically cease to participate
in the Plan from and after the date it ceases to be an Affiliate. In either event, the benefits under the Plan will be earned with respect that Employer’s participation in the Plan shall be determined by the Committee. Pensions payable to
Employees employed by the withdrawing Employer shall be payable to such Employees when due under the Plan, but such Employees shall not be considered Eligible Employees from and after the date of withdrawal by their Employer.


  

 32 








 Article 10. Miscellaneous Provisions 
 10.1 Good-Faith Valuation Binding 
 In determining the value of the Participant’s Retirement Income, the
Committee shall exercise its best judgment, and all such determinations of value (in the absence of bad faith) shall be binding upon all Participants and their Joint/Contingent Annuitants and Beneficiaries. 
 10.2 Taxation 
 It is the intention of the Company that the benefits
payable hereunder shall not be deductible by the Employers nor taxable for federal income tax purposes to Participants or Beneficiaries until such benefits are paid by the Employers to such Participants or Beneficiaries. Without limiting the
foregoing, it is intended that the Plan meet the requirements of Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations and the Committee shall use its reasonable best efforts to interpret and administer the Plan in accordance with such
requirements. When benefits are paid hereunder, it is the intention of the Company that they shall be deductible by the Employers under Code section 162. 
 10.3 Withholding 
 All distributions shall be net of any applicable federal, state, or local income or employment taxes or any other amounts
required to be withheld by law. In addition, the Company or any Affiliate may withhold from a Participant’s currently payable salary, bonus, or other compensation any applicable federal, state, or local income or employment taxes that may be
due upon accruing benefits under the Plan. 
 10.4 Offset for Obligations to the Company or an Affiliate 
 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant or Beneficiary has any outstanding obligation to the Company or any Affiliate (whether or not such
obligation is related to the Plan), the Committee may cause the Retirement Income of such Participant or Beneficiary to be reduced and offset by, and to be applied to satisfy, the amount of such obligation; provided, the offset is not in excess of
$5,000 for any tax year (determined based on the tax year of the Company and Affiliates) and the offset occurs at the same time as the outstanding obligation to the Company or any Affiliate is due. 
 10.5 No Enlargement of Employment Rights 
 This Plan is strictly a
voluntary undertaking on the part of the Company and the Employers and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Employers and any Employee or Participant, Beneficiary, or alternate payee, or to be consideration for, or an inducement
to, or a condition of, the employment of any Employee. Nothing contained in this Plan or any modification of the same or act done in pursuance hereof shall be construed as giving any person any legal or equitable right against the Employer, unless
specifically provided herein, or as giving any person a right to be retained in the employ of the Employer. All Participants 

  

 33 








 
shall remain subject to assignment, reassignment, promotion, transfer, layoff, reduction, suspension, and discharge to the same extent as if this Plan had
never been established. 
 10.6 Non-Alienation 
  

	(a)	Except as otherwise permitted by the Plan, no benefit payable at any time under the Plan shall be subject to the debts or liabilities of a Participant or his Beneficiary. Any
attempt to alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or otherwise encumber any such benefit, whether presently or thereafter payable, shall be void. Except as provided in this Plan section, no benefit under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to
attachment, garnishment, or encumbrance of any kind. 

  

	(b)	Payment may be made from a Participant’s Retirement Income to an alternate payee, pursuant to a domestic relations order. 

  

	 	(1)	The Committee shall establish reasonable written procedures for reviewing court orders made, pursuant to state domestic relations law (including a community property law), relating
to child support, alimony payments, or marital property rights of a Spouse, child, or other dependent of a Participant and for notifying Participants and alternate payees of the receipt of such orders and of the Plan’s procedures for
determining if the orders are approved domestic relations orders and for administering distributions under domestic relations orders. 

  

	 	(2)	Except as may otherwise be required by applicable law, such domestic relations orders may not require a retroactive transfer of all or part of a Participant’s Retirement
Income. 

 10.7 No Examination or Accounting 
 Neither this Plan nor any action taken thereunder shall be construed as giving any person the right to an accounting or to examine the books or affairs of the Company or any Affiliate. 
 10.8 Incompetency 
 Every person receiving or claiming benefits under
the Plan shall be conclusively presumed to be mentally competent and of age until the date on which the Committee receives a written notice, in a form and manner acceptable to the Committee, that such person is incompetent or a minor, for whom a
guardian or other person legally vested with the care of his person or estate has been appointed; provided, however, that if the Committee shall find that any person to whom a benefit is payable under the Plan is unable to care for his affairs
because of incompetency, or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim therefore shall have been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may be paid instead to the guardian of such person or to the person having custody of such person,
without further liability on the part of an Employer for the amount of such payment to the person on whose account such payment is made. 
  

 34 








 10.9 Notice of Address 
 Each person entitled to benefits from the Plan must file with the Committee or its agent, in writing, his post office address and each change of post office address. Any communication, statement, or notice addressed to such a person at his
latest reported post office address will be binding upon him for all purposes of the Plan, and neither the Committee nor the Company shall be obliged to search for or ascertain his whereabouts. 
 10.10 Data 
 All persons entitled to benefits from the Plan must
furnish to the Committee such documents, evidence, or information, including information concerning marital status, as the Committee considers necessary or desirable for the purpose of administering the Plan. 
 10.11 Service of Legal Process 
 The General Counsel of the Company is
hereby designated agent of the Plan for the purpose of receiving service of summons, subpoena, or other legal process. 
 10.12 Qualified Military Service

 Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary and to the fullest extent permitted under Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-2(a)(15),
the election requirements under this Plan shall be deemed satisfied to the extent that an election is provided to the Participant to satisfy the requirements of the Uniformed Service Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, as amended.

 10.13 Counterparts 
 This Plan may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original. All the counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument and may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart. 
 In Witness Whereof, the undersigned, duly authorized by the Committee, has caused this instrument to be executed on November 18, 2008, but effective as of
January 1, 2009.
