 WHEREAS, Section 6.2 of the Plan authorizes
the Board of Directors of the Company to amend the Plan; 
 WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has
recommended that the Board of Directors make certain amendments to the Plan; and 
 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the
Company desires to make such amendments to the Plan effective November 1, 2012. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended as
follows: 
 1. 

Section 1.1 of the Plan (titled “Account”) is amended to read as follows: 

1.1 “Account” shall mean the bookkeeping account maintained for each Member to record his Deferrals and Additional Credits, as
adjusted pursuant to Article 4. The Administrator shall establish such sub-accounts within a Member’s Account as it deems necessary to implement the provisions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, sub-accounts for all Deferrals and
Additional Credits that are subject to a common Distribution Option election (i.e., the Deferrals and Additional Credits that will be paid at the same time or upon the same event and in the same form). 

2. 
 Section 1.10 of the Plan
(titled “Compensation”) is amended to read as follows: 
 1.10 “Compensation” shall mean the compensation of
an Eligible Executive as defined for purposes of the Savings Plan, determined prior to any Deferrals under Article 3. “Compensation” shall also include Incentive Compensation Awards (as defined in the Bonus Plan and LTIP) and/or
Awards (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) payable under the Bonus Plan, the LTIP and/or the Omnibus Plan; provided that “Compensation” shall not include Incentive Compensation Awards (as defined in the LTIP) or Awards (as defined in the
Omnibus Plan) payable under the LTIP to the extent such Compensation is attributable to an Incentive Compensation Award Period (as defined in the LTIP) or a Performance Period (as defined in the Omnibus Plan) beginning on or after January 1, 2012.








 3. 
 Section 1.15 of the Plan (titled “Distribution Option”) is amended to read as follows: 
 1.15 “Distribution Option(s)” shall mean the election by the Member of the event triggering the commencement of distribution and the method of distribution. A Distribution Option election shall

 4. 
 Paragraph
(a) of Section 5.1 of the Plan (titled “Commencement of Payment”) is amended to read as follows: 
  

	(a)	The distribution of the Member’s or former Member’s Account shall commence, pursuant to Section 5.2, on or after the occurrence of (i), (ii),
(iii) or (iv) below, as designated by the Member as part of his Distribution Option election: 

  

	 	(i)	either the date of the Member’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder) with the Affiliated
Companies for any reason, whether with or without cause, or the first anniversary of such date,

59 1/2 nor later than age 70 1/2, 


  

	 	(iii)	the earlier of (i) or (ii) above, or 

  

	 	(iv)	the later of (i) or (ii) above. 

 In the event a Member elects either (ii) or (iii) above, he may not elect an age less than three (3) years subsequent to his current age. If a Member fails to designate a permissible
payment event as part of his Distribution Option election, such Member shall be deemed to have elected to have payment made upon the date the Member separates from Service. A Member or former Member shall not change his Distribution Option election
of the designation of the event which entitles him to distribution of his Account, except as provided in Section 5.1(b) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if payment of a Member’s Account is to be made or is to commence upon separation
from service and if, at the time of such separation from service, such Member is a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A(1)(B) of the Code), such payment shall be made or shall commence on the date that six (6) months and
one day following such Member’s separation from service. 







 5. 
 The last sentence of Section 5.2 of the Plan (titled “Method of Payment”) is amended to read as follows: 
 If a Member fails to make a proper election as to the form of distribution of his Account, he shall be deemed to have elected to have his Account distributed to him or his Beneficiary in a single lump

Award Periods or Performance Periods beginning on or after such January 1. With respect to Compensation under the Bonus Plan, the LTIP and/or the Omnibus Plan that meets the requirements of Section 3.6(a), the new Distribution Option
