INTERMEC,
INC.
 DIRECTOR
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
  1.           Introduction.
  (a) Purpose. The purposes of the
Intermec, Inc. Director Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), which is an amendment
and restatement of the 2002 Director Stock Option and Fee Plan), are to further
long-term growth of the Company by providing members of the Board of Directors
of Intermec, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), who are neither
officers nor employees of the Company, the ability to defer receipt of their
compensation, keeping their financial interests aligned with the Company,
thereby providing them with a long-term incentive to remain in the service of
the Company and increase their efforts for the success of the Company. The Plan
is also intended to assist the Company in attracting experienced and qualified
candidates to become members of the Board. The Plan is intended to be a
continuation of the deferral components of the 2002 Director Stock Option and
Fee Plan, as amended effective November 13, 2007 (the "2002 Plan").
  (b) Effective Date.The Plan is effective as of
the date of the Company's 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Effective Date"), provided
that the Plan will become effective only if Company's stockholders approve the
2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan at that meeting. The Plan is also effective
with respect to all amounts under the 2002 Plan deferred on or after
January 1, 2005 that remain unpaid as of the Effective Date. All amounts
earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 shall continue to be governed by the
terms of the 2002 Plan in place as of December 31, 2004 or any earlier
applicable date in accordance with then applicable Internal Revenue Service
("IRS") guidance. All amounts earned or vested from January 1, 2005 through the
day before the Effective Date shall be governed by this Plan, as modified by the
operations of the Plan during such period in accordance with Section 409A and
then applicable IRS guidance (including transition relief). No amendment to the
Plan on and after January 1, 2005 is intended to, nor shall it be deemed to,
apply to other than the terms and conditions of the Plan in effect prior to
January 1, 2005 unless expressly provided by such amendment.

due to casualty (including the need to rebuild a home following damage to a home

be determined by the Plan Administrator.
  3.           Terms and
Conditions of Deferral Elections.
  (a) In General. Each Director may
irrevocably elect annually to defer receiving all or a portion of (i) the shares
of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued in connection with the Director's
retainer fees or meeting fees in respect of a calendar year, (ii) the shares of
Common Stock that would otherwise be issued upon a Director's election to
receive cash retainer fees or meeting fees in shares of Common Stock, or (iii) a
Director's cash retainer fees or meeting fees in respect of a calendar year that
are not subject to an election to receive such fees in shares of Common Stock (a
"Deferral Election").
Each Deferral Election shall state the amount of cash or stock that the Director
is electing to defer. A Director who has made a Deferral Election with respect
to shares of Common Stock shall have the number of shares of Common Stock that
are the subject of the Deferral Election credited to a Share Account in the form
of Share Units. A Director who has made a Deferral Election with respect to
Meeting Fees that are not subject to a Share Election shall have the amount of
deferred fees credited to a Cash Account.
  Page 3 of

  (b)  Timing of Deferral
Election.The
Deferral Election shall be in writing and delivered to the Secretary of the
Company on or prior to December 31 of the calendar year preceding the calendar
year in which the applicable Fees are to be earned; provided, however,that a Director who
commences service on the Board on or subsequent to January 1 of a calendar year
may make a prospective Deferral Election during the 30-day period immediately
following the commencement of his or her directorship, and, accordingly, such
Deferral Election shall apply only with respect to compensation paid for
services to be performed subsequent to the Deferral Election. A Deferral
Election, once made, shall be irrevocable for the calendar year with respect to
which it is made and shall remain in effect for future calendar years unless
revoked or modified by a subsequent Deferral Election with respect to future
calendar years on or prior to December 31 of the calendar year preceding the
calendar year in which such revocation shall take effect and in accordance with
the provisions hereof. No subsequent Deferral Election may be made with respect
to Fees earned during the current calendar year or prior calendar
years.
  4.           Crediting of
Accounts.
  (a) Share Accounts.Each Share Account shall be
deemed to be invested in shares of Common Stock. Whenever regular cash dividends
are paid by the Company on outstanding Common Stock, there shall be credited to
the Director's Share Account additional Share Units equal to (i) the aggregate
dividend that would be payable on outstanding shares of Common Stock equal to
the number of Share Units in such Share Account on the record date for the
dividend, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the
payment date of the dividend.
  (b) Cash Accounts.Each Director's Cash
Account shall be credited with earnings, gain or loss, on the last day of each
calendar quarter. The earnings on each Cash Account shall be deemed invested in
the Investment Options chosen by each Director at the time of his or her
Deferral Election and modified thereafter pursuant to such rules and procedures
as the Board may establish in its discretion. Earnings shall be calculated on
the basis of the average daily balance in the Cash Account during the calendar
quarter.
  (c)  No Account Transfers.A Director may not transfer
or convert a Share Account to a Cash Account, or vice versa.
  (d)  Status of Accounts.The Share Account and Cash
Account shall not be funded, and all Deferred Amounts shall be held in the
general assets of the Company and be subject to the claims of general creditors
of the Company.
  5.           Payment of
Deferred Amounts.
  (a)  Commencement of Payment.Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 5, a Director's Deferred Amounts shall become
payable in the January following the year in which the Director separates from
service as a Director; provided, however, that if a Director is also providing
services to the Company or an Affiliated Company as an independent contractor,
his or her Deferred Amounts cannot be paid until he or she has separated from
service both as a Director and as an independent contractor. Payments from a
Cash Account shall be paid in cash. Payments from a Share Account shall be made
by converting Share Units into Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, with payment
of fractional shares to be made in cash based on the Fair Market Value of such
fractional share on the last market day of the preceding calendar
quarter.
  (b)  Timing of Payments.Subject to
Sections 5(c) and (d), each Director shall elect in his or her Deferral
Election to receive payment of his or her Deferred Amounts in the event the
Director separates from service as a Director (for reasons other than death,
Disability or Unforeseeable Emergency) either in a lump sum or in two to 15
substantially equal annual installments. Effective January 1, 2009, a Director
may elect to change such form of payment only under the following
conditions:
  (i) The
election does not take effect until as least 12 months after the date on which
the election is made; and
  Page 4 of
8
  (ii)  The
payment with respect to which such election is made shall be deferred for a
period of not less than five years from the date such payment would otherwise
have been paid (or in the case of any method of installment payments, each of
which are treated as a single payment for purposes of Section 409A, five years
from the date the first installment was scheduled to be paid).
  With
respect to each of the calendar years that include December 31, 2007 and
December 31, 2008, respectively, the Directors were and will be given the
ability to elect to change such form of payment without regard to the
limitations imposed in the foregoing subsections (i) and (ii) above, to the full
extent permitted by applicable all applicable Treasury regulations, IRS rulings
and other guidance governing the transition period under Section
409A.
   (c)  PaymentUpon Death, Disability or
Unforeseeable Emergency.In the event of a
Director's death, payment of the remaining portion of the Director's Deferred
Amounts shall be made to the Director's Beneficiary (or, if no Beneficiary has
been designated, to the Director's estate or other legal representative) in a
lump sum. Payment shall be made to a Director in a lump sum in the event of
Disability or upon the occurrence of an Unforeseeable Emergency. A Director who
experiences a Disability or an Unforeseeable Emergency may request a payment
from his or her Accounts under the Plan by submitting a request in writing
to the Secretary of the Company for presentation to the Board. Such request
shall specify the date of the occurrence of such Disability or Unforeseeable
Emergency and the amount of the payment requested. A distribution based on an
Unforeseeable Emergency is limited to the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy
the emergency need and may include amounts necessary to pay any federal, state
or local income tax penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the
distribution. Payment under this Section 5(c) shall be made on or before the
90th day immediately following the event that triggers such payment. A
Director's Deferral Election shall be cancelled for the remainder of any
calendar year in which he or she receives a distribution based on an
Unforeseeable Emergency.
  (d)  Delay in Payments Allowed by Plan
Administrator. Tothe extentpermitted by Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7), a delay in payments shall be allowed
under the Plan if the Plan Administrator determines that the amount would not be
deductible under Code § 162(m) or if the payment would violate federal
securities laws or other applicable laws.
  6.           Limitation of
Rights.
  (a)  No Right to Continue as a
Director.Neither the Plan nor the making of a Deferral Election nor any other
action taken pursuant to the Plan shall constitute or be evidence of any
agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company shall retain a
Director for any period of time or at any particular rate of
compensation.
  (b)  No Stockholder's Rights.A Director who has made a
Deferral Election (or his or her representative) shall have no rights as a
stockholder with respect to any Share Units with respect to a Deferral Election
until the date of the actual issuance to him or her (or such representative) of
shares of Common Stock (either through the Company's Direct Registration System
or by certification), and, except as expressly provided by the terms of the
Plan, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the
record date is prior to the date such shares are issued.
  7.           Effect of Certain
Changes in Capitalization.In the event of any change
in corporate capitalization (such as a stock split), any corporate transaction
(such as any merger, consolidation or separation (including a spinoff)), any
other distribution of stock or property of the Company, any reorganization
(whether or not such reorganization comes within the definition of such term in
Section 368 of the Code) or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company,
the Board shall equitably adjust the Share Account to reflect any such
transaction and shall make such substitution or adjustments in the aggregate
number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan.

  8.           Change
ofControl. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control:
  (a)  All Share Units
credited to a Share Account shall be converted into Common Stock and, together
with all Deferred Amounts credited to a Cash Account, shall be transferred
within 90 days of the Change of Control to each Director; and
  (b)  Fees earned in
respect of the calendar quarter in which the Change of Control occurs shall be
paid in cash as soon as practicable.
  9.           Claims
Procedures.
  (a)  Presentation of Claim. Any
Director or Beneficiary (such Director or Beneficiary being referred to in this
Section as a "Claimant")
may deliver to the Board a written claim for a determination with respect to the
amounts distributable to such Claimant from the Plan. If such a claim relates to
the contents of a notice received by the Claimant, the claim must be made within
60 days after the Claimant received such notice. All other claims must be
made within 180 days of the date on which the event that caused the claim to
arise occurred. The claim must state with particularity the determination
desired by the Claimant.
  (b)  Notification of Decision. The
Board shall consider a Claimant's claim within a reasonable time, and shall
notify the Claimant in writing:
  (i) That the Claimant's
requested determination has been made, and that the claim has been allowed in
full; or
  (ii) That the
Board has reached a conclusion contrary, in whole or in part, to the
Claimant's requested determination, in which case such notice shall state
(1) the specific reason(s) for the denial of the claim, or any part of it,
and (2) the specific references to pertinent provisions of the Plan on
which such denial was based.
  (c)  Legal Action. Compliance with
the foregoing provisions of this Section 9 is a mandatory prerequisite to a
Claimant's right to commence any legal action with respect to any claim for
benefits under the Plan.
  10.           Amendment;
Termination.
  (a)  Amendment. The Board may at
any time and from time to time alter, amend or suspend the Plan in whole or in
part; provided, however, that no amendment which is required by any
regulation, law or stock exchange rule to be approved by stockholders shall be
effective unless it is approved by the stockholders of the Company entitled to
vote thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall affect adversely
any of the rights of any Director, under any option or under any election
theretofore in effect under the Plan, or with respect to Deferred Amounts,
without such Director's consent.
  (b)  Termination. The Plan shall
continue for an indefinite period of time unless earlier terminated by the
Board. Notwithstanding the Plan's termination, amounts shall be delivered
pursuant to any Deferral Election made prior to the Plan's termination in
accordance with such election. Deferral Elections may not be made for any
Director retainer fees or meeting fees that would be paid following the date of
the termination of the Plan.
  11.        
Nontransferability.No right or interest of any
Director in Deferred Amounts shall be transferable by a Director other than (a)
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or (b) pursuant to the same
rules and procedures that apply to a qualified domestic relations order (as
defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended). All rights with respect to Deferred Amounts shall be
exercisable, during the Director's lifetime, only by the Director or by the
guardian or legal representative of the Director or an alternate payee pursuant
to a qualified domestic relations order.

  12.         Beneficiaries.The Board shall establish
such procedures as it deems appropriate for a Director to designate a
Beneficiary to whom any amounts payable in the event of a Director's death are
to be paid. Directors shall make a beneficiary election with respect to Deferred
Amounts at the same time that a Deferral Election is made.
  13.         ComplianceWith Law,
