 ARTICLE I 
 DEFINITIONS 
 1.01 “Account” means a hypothetical account balance established and
maintained for each Participant which will be credited or debited, as the case may be, with Contribution Credits, Interest Credits and any payments pursuant to Article IV. A Participant’s Account is a nominal account, and is used to determine
the amount of retirement benefits payable under the cash balance aspect. The Participant shall have no actual individual account, and shall have no claim to any particular assets of the Plan. The Participant’s Account will be charged with the
amount of any distributions paid to him or her under the Plan based on benefits payable under Article IV. 
 1.02 “Active
Participant” means Active Participant as defined under the Retirement Plan. 
 1.03 “Affiliate” means each
corporation, trade or business which is, together with any Employer, a member of a controlled group of corporations or an affiliated service group or under common control (within the meaning of section 414(b), (c) or (m) of the Code), but
only for the period during which such other entity is so affiliated with the Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in applying sections 1563(a)(1), (2) and (3) of the Code for purposes of determining a controlled group of corporations
under section 414(b) of the Code and in applying Treasury regulation section 1.414(c)-2 for purposes of determining trades or businesses that are under common control for purposes of section 414(c) of the Code, the phrase “at least 50
percent” will be used instead of “at least 80 percent” at each place it appears in such sections. 
 1.04
“Board” 
 means the Board of Directors of the Company, as constituted from time to time, except that any action that could
be taken by the Board of Directors may also be taken by a duly authorized Committee of the Board of Directors. 
 1.05 “Change in
Control Event” means a change in the ownership of the Company, a change in the effective control of the Company, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company as determined in accordance with section
409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code and Treasury regulation section 1.409A-3(i)(5), and as set forth below: 
 (a) A change in the ownership of the
Company occurs on the date that any one person or more than one person acting as a group (a “Person”), acquires ownership of the stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such Person, constitutes more than fifty percent
(50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (a), the acquisition of additional stock by any one Person who is considered to own more than fifty
percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company shall not be considered to cause a change in the 

  

 -1- 







 
ownership of the Company (or to cause a change in the effective control of the Company within the meaning of subsection (b) below). An increase in the
percentage of stock owned by any one Person as a result of a transaction in which the Company acquires its stock in exchange for property shall be treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of this subsection (a). This subsection
(a) applies only when there is a transfer of stock of the Company (or issuance of stock of the Company) and the Company’s stock remains outstanding after the transaction; 
 (b) A change in the effective control of the Company occurs on the date that either: (1) any one Person acquires (or has acquired during the
12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such Person) ownership of the stock of the Company possessing thirty percent (30%) or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company; or (2) a majority of the
members of the Board of Directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors prior to the date of the appointment or election. A change in
effective control also may occur in a transaction in which either of the two corporations involved in the transaction has a Change in Control Event under subsection (a) above or (c) below. For purposes of this subsection (b), if any one
Person is considered to effectively control the Company within the meaning of this subsection (b), the acquisition of additional control of the Company by such Person shall not be considered to cause a change in the effective control of the Company
(or to cause a change in the ownership of the Company within the meaning of subsection (a) above); or 
 (c) A change in the ownership
of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets occurs on the date that any one Person acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such Person) assets from the Company that have a
total gross fair market value equal to or more than forty percent (40%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions. For this purpose, “gross fair market
value” means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets. However, there is no Change in Control Event under this subsection
(c) when there is a transfer of assets of the Company to an entity that is controlled by the shareholders of the Company immediately after the transfer, as provided below. A transfer of assets by the Company shall not be treated as a change in
the ownership of such assets if the assets are transferred to: (1) a shareholder of the Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to the Company’s stock; (2) an entity, fifty percent (50%) or
more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company; (3) a Person, that owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock
of the Company; or (4) an entity, at least fifty percent (50%) of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a Person described in clause (3) above. For purposes of this subsection (c) and
except as otherwise provided, a person’s status is determined immediately after the transfer of the assets. 
 For purposes of this
Section 1.05, persons will not be considered to be acting as a group solely because they purchase or own stock of the Company at the same time. However, persons will 

  

 -2- 







 
be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or
similar business transaction with the Company, and if a person, including an entity, owns stock in both the Company and another corporation and the Company and the other corporation enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of
stock, or similar transaction, such shareholder is considered to be acting as a group with other shareholders only with respect to the ownership in the Company before the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership
interest in the other corporation. Section 318(a) of the Code also applies to determine stock ownership. Stock underlying a vested option is considered owned by the individual who holds the vested option (and the stock underlying an unvested
option is not considered owned by the individual who holds the unvested option); provided, however, that if a vested option is exercisable for stock that is not substantially vested (as defined by Treasury regulation sections 1.83-3(b) and (j)), the
stock underlying the option is not treated as owned by the individual who holds the option. 
 1.06 “Committee” means the
Committee under the PMI Retirement Plan. 
 1.07 “Company” means The PMI Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or any
successor thereto and any Affiliate to the extent required. 
 1.08 “Contribution Credits” means an amount equal to the
difference between (i) the aggregate amount credited to the Participant’s account under the Retirement Plan for such calendar year pursuant to Section 6.02 thereof, and (ii) the aggregate amount that would have been credited to
the Participant’s account under the Retirement Plan for such calendar year, but for the restrictions of section 401(a)(17) and section 415 of the Code. Such Contribution Credits will be credited into the Account of each Participant under
the Plan as of the last day of each calendar year beginning on or after December 31, 2007. 
 1.09 “Covered
Compensation” means Covered Compensation as defined under the Retirement Plan. 
 1.10 “Disability” or
“Disabled” means (a) the Participant is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to
last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, or (b) the Participant is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a
continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Company. The Committee shall determine
whether or not a Participant is Disabled based on such evidence as the Committee deems necessary or advisable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant shall be deemed Disabled if he or she is determined to be totally disabled by the Social
Security Administration. 
 1.11 “Employer” means Employer as defined under the Retirement Plan. 
  

 -3- 







 1.12 “Final Average Compensation” means, subject to Section 3.02(a), Final Average
Compensation as defined under the Retirement Plan. 
 1.13 “Interest Credits” means the amount credited to a
Participant’s Account as interest in a Plan Year, calculated by using the rate of interest on 30-year Treasury securities as specified by the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service for the month of November preceding the Plan Year, or
such other time as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe. Such amount for any Plan Year shall be calculated at a rate that is not greater than the market rate of return, as defined in section 411(b)(5)(b)(i) and section 411(b)(5)(b)(vi) of
the Code and any successor provisions thereto. The Interest Credit for any Valuation Date shall be determined prior to crediting a Participant’s Account with any Contribution Credits with respect to such calendar year and shall be based on the
balance of the Participant’s Account as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date, with appropriate adjustments for payments made therefrom since such Valuation Date. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the
balance of a Participant’s Account shall be distributed prior to the last day of a calendar year (as of which the interest would ordinarily be credited), the Interest Credit otherwise allocable to such Participant’s Account for such year
shall be prorated, based upon the number of complete calendar months which have elapsed from the first day of such calendar year to the date of distribution. 
 1.14 “Participant” means any employee who: (a) is eligible for benefits under the Retirement Plan, (b) retires on or after January 1, 1989, and (c) meets the eligibility
requirements of Section 3.01 of this Plan. 
 1.15 “Plan” means The PMI Group, Inc. Supplemental Employee Retirement
Plan, as set forth in the instrument and as heretofore or hereafter amended from time to time. 
 1.16 “Retirement Plan
Benefits” is defined in Section 4.05 of this Plan. 
 1.17 “Retirement Plan” means The PMI Group, Inc.
Retirement Plan, as amended from time to time. 
 1.18 “Retired Participant” means a Participant who retired in accordance
with the provisions of the Retirement Plan. 
 1.19 “Separation from Service” means a Participant’s death, retirement
or other termination of employment with the Employer and all of its Affiliates (as determined in accordance with section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treasury regulation section 1.409A-1(h)), including, but not by way of limitation, a
termination by resignation, discharge, death, Disability, Retirement, or the disaffiliation of an Affiliate, but excluding any such termination where there is a simultaneous reemployment by the Company or an Affiliate. For this purpose, the
employment relationship shall be treated as continuing intact while the Participant is on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, except that if the period of such leave exceeds six (6) months and the Participant does
not retain a right to reemployment under an applicable statute or by contract, then the 

  

 -4- 







 
employment relationship shall be deemed to have terminated on the first day immediately following such six-month period. A leave of absence constitutes a
bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Participant will return to perform services for the Employer. 
 1.20 “Specified Participant” means a Participant who, as of the date of his or her Separation from Service, is a key employee of the Company. For this purpose, a Participant shall be deemed to be a “key employee”
of the Company if he or she meets the requirements of section 416(i)(1)(A)(i), (ii) or (iii) of the Code (applied in accordance with the regulations thereunder and disregarding section 416(i)(5) of the Code) at any time during the 12-month
period ending on September 30 (the “Identification Date”). In this connection, the definition of compensation under Treasury regulation section 1.415(c)-2(a) will be used, applied as if no safe harbor provided in Treasury regulation
section 1.415(c)-2(d) were used, no elective special timing rules provided in Treasury regulation section 1.415(c)-2(e) were used, and no elective special rules provided in Treasury regulation section 1.415(c)-2(g) were used. If a Participant is a
key employee of the Company as of any Identification Date, then he or she will be treated as such for the entire 12-month period beginning on the first day of the fourth month following the Identification Date. 
 1.21 “Spouse” means Spouse as defined in the Retirement Plan. 
 1.22 “Termination” means Termination as defined under the Retirement Plan. 
 1.23 “Trust” means a trust established pursuant to Section 4.09 of the Plan for the purposes of holding assets for the payment of
the Employer’s general creditors, including the Employer’s Participants. Such Trust shall be intended to be a grantor trust, of which the Employer is the grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J,
subtitle A of the Code. In addition, the Trust, if established, shall be irrevocable and shall conform to the provisions of Revenue Procedure 92-64. 
 1.24 “Valuation Date” means the last business day of each calendar year, or such other or additional days as the Committee may deem necessary or appropriate. 
 1.25 “Year of Benefit Accrual Service” means Year of Benefit Accrual Service as defined under the Retirement Plan. 
 ARTICLE II 
 INTRODUCTION 

2.01 Purpose. The purpose of this Plan is: (1) to restore to Participants the benefits they lose under the Retirement Plan as a
result of the compensation limit in section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any successor provision, and (2) to restore to Participants the benefits they lose as a result of
section 415 of the Code, as amended, or any successor provision. The Plan is an unfunded deferred compensation program for a select group of management and highly compensated employees. Thus, the Plan is subject to Part 1 of Title I
of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), but is exempt from Parts 2, 3 and 4 thereof. 
  

 -5- 







 2.02 Administration. The Plan will be administered by the Committee. The Committee has all
discretionary authority to issue such rules as it deems appropriate and to interpret the provisions of the Plan and make factual determinations, including the power to determine the rights or eligibility of employees or participants and any other
persons, and the amounts of their benefits under the Plan, and to remedy ambiguities, inconsistencies, or omissions. Any decision by the Committee shall be final, binding; and conclusive on all participants and all other persons, and shall be given
the maximum possible deference permitted by law. 
 ARTICLE III 
 ELIGIBILITY AND AMOUNT OF BENEFITS 
 3.01 Eligibility. Each employee of an Employer who meets
the definition of Section 1.13 is eligible to receive a benefit under this Plan if he or she is vested in benefits under the Retirement Plan and if such vested benefits have been reduced because of the application of section 401(a)(17) or
section 415 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition to the above eligibility requirements, a Participant’s eligibility to obtain an Account is governed by the following rules: 
 (a) For a Participant who is an Active Participant on September 1, 2007, and who does not incur a Termination on or before December 31, 2010,
such Participant shall be eligible to receive a Contribution Credit for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2010. 
 (b) For a
Participant who is an Active Participant on September 1, 2007, and who does incur a Termination on or before December 31, 2010, but is subsequently rehired and becomes an Active Participant thereafter, such Active Participant shall be
eligible to receive a Contribution Credit for Plan Years on or after his or her date of re-eligibility to participate in the Retirement Plan. 
 (c) For a Participant who is not an Active Participant on September 1, 2007, such Active Participant shall be eligible to receive a Contribution Credit to the extent the Participant is eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan.

 3.02 Amount of Benefit. The amount of benefit paid from the Plan will be equal to: (a) plus (b) minus (c) below:

 (a) The benefit, if any, which would have been payable to the Participant under the terms of Article 5 of the Retirement Plan at his or her
Separation from Service, but for the restrictions of section 401(a)(17) and section 415 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Retirement Plan, “Compensation,” for purposes of
determining a Participant’s Final Average Compensation, shall mean Compensation as defined under the Retirement Plan, but shall include amounts a Participant defers under any nonqualified deferred compensation sponsored by an Employer.

  

 -6- 







 (b) The benefit, if any, which would have been payable to the Participant under the terms of
Section 6.02 of the Retirement Plan at his or her Separation from Service, but for the restrictions of section 401(a)(17) and section 415 of the Code and as set forth in the Participant’s Account. 
 (c) The amount of benefit that would be payable to the Participant under the terms of Article 5 and/or Article 6 of the Retirement Plan at his or her
Separation from Service. 
 3.03 Preretirement Surviving Spouse Benefit. Preretirement Surviving Spouse Benefits will be payable under
this Plan on behalf of a Participant. The benefit payable will be equal to the lump sum that would have been paid to the Participant had they retired the day before their death. In the event that the Participant does not have a surviving Spouse, the
lump sum will be paid to their beneficiary or estate. 
 3.04 Death Benefits After Retirement. Benefits will be payable from this Plan
to a beneficiary or contingent annuitant designated by a Retired Participant. The normal form of benefit under the Plan is a single lump sum and if the Participant has received their benefit in the form of a lump sum, then there are no other
benefits – including death benefits – payable under the Plan. If the Participant has elected, under section 4.02, to receive their benefit in the form of an annuity, then the death benefit, if any, will be based on the terms of that
annuity payable to the beneficiary of death benefits for that annuity. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 PAYMENT OF BENEFITS 
 4.01 Payment of Benefits. Subject to the provisions
of Sections 4.02 and 4.03, a Participant who incurs a Separation from Service shall receive the benefits due him or her under this Plan in the form of single lump sum cash payment based on a life annuity at the time of the Separation from Service.
Such payment shall be made on the first day of the calendar month that immediately follows the Participant’s Separation from Service (the “Original Payment Date”) or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter. The Retirement
Plan factors for calculating the Participant’s payment under the Plan in effect at the time of his or her Separation from Service will be used to calculate such payment. All distributions from a Participant’s Account will be based on the
value of such Account measured as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date of distribution. 
 4.02 Benefit Payment
Election. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 4.01, a Participant may elect to defer the payment of the benefits due him or her under this Plan beyond the Original Payment Date (as defined in Section 4.01) and receive
such benefits in the form of an 

  

 -7- 







 
annuity that is permitted under the terms of the Retirement Plan, provided that the following requirements (the “Deferral Requirements”) are
satisfied: (a) the election is made at least twelve (12) months before the Original Payment Date, (b) the newly-elected payment date is at least five (5) years after the Original Payment Date but not more than ten (10) years
after the Original Payment Date, and (c) the election does not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in accordance with Treasury regulation section
1.409A-2(b)(8) the Deferral Requirements shall be deemed to be satisfied to the extent the Committee (in its discretion) provides a Participant with an election to satisfy the requirements of the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights
Act of 1994, as amended, if applicable 
 4.03 Required Six-Month Delay of Payment to a Specified Participant. Notwithstanding any
contrary Plan provision, any payment(s) that are otherwise required to be made under the Plan to a Specified Participant as a result of his or her Separation from Service shall be accumulated during the first six (6) months following such
Separation from Service and shall instead be paid on the first day of the calendar month that immediately follows the end of such six-month period (or if earlier, the date of death of such Specified Participant) or as soon as administratively
practicable thereafter. 
 4.04 Retirement Plan Termination. No further benefits may be earned under this Plan with respect to the
Retirement Plan after the termination of the Retirement Plan. 
 4.05 Retirement Plan Benefits. The term “Retirement Plan
Benefits” generally means the benefits actually payable to a Participant, Spouse, beneficiary, or contingent annuitant under the Retirement Plan. However, this Plan is only intended to remedy pension reductions caused by the operation of
section 401(a)(17) and section 415 of the Code and not reductions caused for any other reason. In those instances where pension benefits are reduced for some other reason, the term “Retirement Plan Benefits” shall be deemed to mean the
benefits that would have been actually payable but for such other reason. 
 Examples of such other reasons include, but are not limited to,
the following: 
 (a) A reduction in pension benefits as a result of a distress termination (as described in section 4041(c) of ERISA, or
any comparable successor provision of law) of the Retirement Plan. In such a case, the Retirement Plan Benefits will be deemed to refer to the payments that would have been made from the Retirement Plan had it terminated on a fully funded basis as a
standard termination (as described in ERISA section 4041(b) or any comparable successor provision of law). 
 (b) A reduction of accrued
benefits as permitted under section 412(c)(8) of the Code, as amended, or any comparable successor provision of law. 
 (c) A reduction
of pension benefits as a result of payment of all or a portion of a Participant’s benefits to a third party on behalf of or with respect to a Participant. 
  

 -8- 







 4.06 Facility of Payment. Any amount payable under the Plan to a person under a Disability
may be paid to such person’s legal representative, or may be applied for the benefit of such person in any manner selected by the Committee. 
 4.07 Review of Benefit Determinations. The Committee will provide notice in writing to any Participant or beneficiary whose claim for benefits under the Plan is denied and the Committee shall afford such Participant or beneficiary a
review of its decision if so requested. 
 4.08 Payment and Funding of Benefits. Amounts payable under the Plan to or on account of a
Participant shall be paid directly by the Employers, and shall be provided solely from the general assets of the Employers. Benefits under the Plan are not funded, the Employers’ obligation to pay such benefits is merely an unsecured
contractual obligation, and a Participant or beneficiary shall be treated as a general creditor of the Employers with respect to any benefits payable under the Plan. Except as provided in Section 4.09, nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to
create a trust of any kind for the benefit of the Participant or any beneficiary, or create any fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant or any beneficiary with respect to any assets of the Company. 
 4.09 Contributions to Trust Upon a Change in Control Event. Upon a Change in Control Event
and by the fifteenth (15th) business day following the end of each calendar month of each Plan year thereafter, the Employer shall irrevocably deposit
cash (or its equivalent) to a Trust for the investment of benefits payable under the Plan to or on account of each Participant. However, any contributions made to the Trust in respect of each Participant shall remain subject to the claims of the
general creditors of the Employers. Nothing contained in this Section 4.09 shall give any Participant or beneficiary any interest in or claim against any specific assets of the Company. 
 ARTICLE V 
 MISCELLANEOUS 

5.01 Action by Company. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Company under the Plan shall be by resolution of its Board of
Directors, by resolution of a duly authorized committee of its Board of Directors, or by a person or persons authorized by resolution of its Board of Directors or such committee. 
 5.02 Amendment and Plan Termination. The Company may, in its sole discretion, terminate, suspend, or amend this Plan at any time or from time to
time, in whole or in part, but no amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of a Participant, reduce the accrued benefit of the Participant or any Spouse; provided, however, that this Section 5.02 shall not
prevent reductions on account of the Participant’s (or Spouse’s) benefit ceasing to be affected (or becoming affected to a lesser degree) by the limitations of section 401(a)(17) and section 415 of the Code. 
  

 -9- 







 5.03 No Effect on Employment. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the
right of the Company or the Employer directly employing the Participant to terminate any Participant’s employment at any time, with or without cause. Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is on an at-will basis only. 
 5.04 Assignment of Benefits. A Participant, Retired Participant, surviving Spouse, or beneficiary may not, either voluntarily or involuntarily,
assign, anticipate, alienate, commute, pledge, or encumber any benefits to which he or she is or may become entitled under the Plan, nor may the same be subject to attachment or garnishment by any creditor’s claim or to legal process.

 5.05 Construction. The Committee shall have full discretionary authority to determine eligibility and to construe and interpret the
terms of the Plan, including the power to remedy possible ambiguities, inconsistencies, or omissions. 
 5.06 Account Statements.
Periodically (as determined by the Committee), each Participant shall receive a statement indicating the amounts credited to and payable from the Participants’ Account. 
 5.07 Applicable Law. The Plan is intended to comply with the provisions of section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any contrary Plan provision,
the Plan shall be construed, administered and enforced in a manner that is consistent with such intent. The provisions of the Plan also shall be construed, administered and enforced in accordance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, and to the
extent not preempted by ERISA, with the applicable state laws described in Section 5.08. 
 5.08 Governing State Law;
Severability. The Plan shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of California (but without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law, provision or rule which would cause the
application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California). If any provision of the Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully
effective. 
 5.09 Number. The singular, where appearing in this Plan, will be deemed to include the plural, unless the context
clearly indicates the contrary. 
 5.10 Participation of Affiliates. One or more Affiliates of the Company may become a participating
employer by adopting the Plan. By adopting the Plan, an Affiliate is deemed to agree to all of its terms, including (but not limited to) the provisions granting exclusive authority to the Company to amend the Plan and the provisions granting
exclusive authority to the Committee to administer and interpret the Plan. Any Affiliate may terminate its participation in the Plan at any time subject, in each case, to the approval of the Company. The liabilities incurred under the Plan to the
Participants employed by each employer shall be solely the liabilities of that employer, and no other employer shall be liable for benefits accrued by a Participant during any period when he or she was not employed by such employer.

members of the Committee, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including attorneys’ fees and amounts paid, with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, in settlement of any claim) arising out of or
resulting from the implementation of a duty, act or decision with respect to the Plan, so long as such duty, act or decision does not involve gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any such individual. 
 5.12 Income Inclusion Under Section 409A of the Code. If the Internal Revenue Service or a court of competent jurisdiction determines that
Plan benefits are includible for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of a Participant before his or her actual receipt of such benefits due to a failure of the Plan to satisfy the requirements of section 409A of the Code, Participant
shall be solely responsible for his or her expenses, including additional taxation, related to such a determination. 
 5.13 No Guarantees
Regarding Tax Treatment. Participants (or their beneficiaries) shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to any benefits under the Plan. The Company and the other Affiliates make no guarantees regarding the tax treatment to any person of
any payments made under this Plan.
