Article 1.

1.1 Establishment. Exelis Inc., an Indiana corporation (hereinafter referred to as the
“Company”), establishes an incentive compensation plan to be known as the Exelis Inc. 2011 Omnibus
Incentive Plan (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”), as set forth in this document. The
Plan permits the grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation
Rights (SARs), Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Other Awards.

The Plan first became effective October 31, 2011 (the “Effective Date”) following the
spin-off of Exelis Inc. from ITT Corporation (the “Predecessor Corporation”) on October 31,
2011. The Predecessor Corporation maintained a similar plan prior to the spin-off (the
“Predecessor Plan”), and the Plan was created to govern the awards under the Predecessor
Plan, as revised to reflect the spin-off from the Predecessor Corporation. The Plan shall remain
in effect as provided in Section 1.3 hereof, and Participants shall receive full credit for their
service and participation with the Predecessor Corporation as provided in Section 5.3 hereof.

1.2 Purpose of the Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term interests of the
Company and its shareholders by strengthening the Company’s ability to attract and retain Employees
of the Company and its Affiliates and members of the Board of Directors upon whose judgment,
initiative, and efforts the financial success and growth of the business of the Company largely
depend, and to provide an additional incentive for such individuals through share ownership and
other rights that promote and recognize the financial success and growth of the Company and create
value for shareholders.

1.3 Duration of the Plan. The Plan shall commence as of the Effective Date, as described in Section
1.1 hereof, and shall remain in effect, subject to the right of the Compensation and Personnel
Committee of the Board, (the “Committee”) to amend or terminate the Plan at any time pursuant to
Article 14 hereof, until all Shares subject to it shall have been purchased or acquired according
to the Plan’s provisions.

its officers and Directors shall be entitled to rely upon the advice, opinions, or valuations of
any such persons. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the
Committee shall be final and binding upon the Participants, the Company, and all other interested
persons.

3.2 Authority of the Committee. The Committee shall have full and exclusive discretionary power to
interpret the terms and the intent of the Plan and to determine eligibility for Awards and to adopt
such rules, regulations, and guidelines for administering the Plan as the Committee may deem
necessary or proper. Such authority shall include, but not be limited to, selecting Award
recipients, establishing all Award terms and conditions and, subject to Article 14, adopting
modifications and amendments to the Plan or any Award Agreement, including without limitation, any
that are necessary to comply with the laws of the countries in which the Company and its Affiliates
operate.

Compensation to lose its status as such.

Article 4. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN AND MAXIMUM AWARDS

4.1 Number of Shares Available for Awards. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2 herein,
the number of Shares hereby reserved for issuance to Participants under the Plan shall be twenty
eight million (28,000,000). For purposes of the prior sentence, Shares subject to outstanding
awards under the Predecessor Plan shall not be considered available for issuance under the
Predecessor Plan. Any Shares related to Awards under the Plan or awards under the Predecessor Plan
that terminate by expiration,

 

 

forfeiture, cancellation, or otherwise without the issuance of such Shares, are settled in cash in
lieu of Shares, or are exchanged with the Committee’s permission for Awards not involving Shares,
shall be available again for grant under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) upon the
exercise of a stock-settled Stock Appreciation Right or net-settled Option, the number of Shares
subject to the Award (or portion of the Award) that is then being exercised shall be counted
against the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan as provided above,
on the basis of one Share for every Share subject thereto, regardless of the actual number of
Shares issued upon exercise and (b) any Shares withheld with respect to an Award (or, with respect
to Restricted Stock, returned) in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations shall be counted as
Shares issued.

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2 herein, the number of Shares hereby reserved for
issuance under the Plan for Full Value Awards (other than Converted Awards) shall not exceed
fourteen million (14,000,000). In addition, any Shares related to Full Value Awards under the Plan
or the Predecessor Plan that terminate by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation, or otherwise
without the issuance of such Shares, are settled in cash in lieu of Shares, or are exchanged with
the Committee’s permission for Awards not involving Shares, shall be available again for grant of
Full Value Awards under the Plan.

All of the reserved Shares may be used as ISOs.

The Shares available for issuance under the Plan may be authorized and unissued Shares or treasury
Shares.

The following limits (“Award Limits”) shall apply to Awards (other than Converted Awards),
dividends and dividend equivalent intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation:

     (a) Options: The maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be granted in the form of
Options, pursuant to any Award granted in any one Plan Year to any one Participant shall be
fifteen million (15,000,000).

     (b) SARs: The maximum number of Shares that may be granted in the form of Stock
Appreciation Rights, pursuant to any Award granted in any one Plan Year to any one
Participant shall be fifteen million (15,000,000).

     (c) Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units: The maximum aggregate grant with
respect to Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted in any one Plan
Year to any one Participant shall be three million (3,000,000).

     (d) Other Awards: The maximum aggregate number of Shares with respect to which Other
Awards may be granted in any one Plan Year to any one Participant shall be three million
(3,000,000) and the maximum aggregate cash that may be payable with respect to Other Awards
granted in any one Plan Year to any one Participant shall be twelve million ($12,000,000)
dollars.

 

 

     (e) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents: The maximum aggregate value of cash dividends
(other than large, nonrecurring cash dividends) or dividend equivalents that any one
Participant may receive pursuant to Awards in any one Plan Year shall not exceed five
million ($5,000,000) dollars.

4.2 Adjustments in Authorized Shares. In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning
of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718 (formerly FAS 123R) that causes the per share
value of Shares to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spin off, rights offering, or
recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend, the Committee shall cause there to be
made an equitable adjustment to: (a) the number and, if applicable, kind of shares that may be
issued under the Plan or pursuant to any type of Award under the Plan, (b) the Award Limits, (c)
the number and, if applicable, kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards and (d) as applicable,
the Option Price or Grant Price of any then outstanding Awards. In the event of any other change in
corporate structure or capitalization, such as a merger, consolidation, 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 Committee, in its sole discretion, in order
to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants’ rights under the Plan, shall cause there to be
made such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence. Any fractional shares
resulting from adjustments made pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be eliminated. Any adjustment
made pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of the Plan.

Except to the extent it would unintentionally cause Performance Based Compensation to fail to
qualify for the performance based exception to Code Section 162(m), appropriate adjustments may
also be made by the Committee in the terms of any Awards under the Plan to reflect such changes or
distributions and to modify any other terms of outstanding Awards on an equitable basis, including
modifications of performance goals and changes in the length of Performance Periods. The
determination of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and
binding on Participants under the Plan.

Subject to the provisions of Article 13, without affecting the number of Shares reserved or
available hereunder, the Committee may authorize the issuance or assumption of benefits under this
Plan in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, share
exchange, amalgamation, reorganization or similar transaction upon such terms and conditions as it
may deem appropriate; provided, however, that no such issuance or assumption shall be made without
affecting the number of Shares reserved or available hereunder if it would prevent the granting of
ISOs under the Plan.

Article 5. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

5.1 Eligibility. Individuals eligible to participate in this Plan include all Employees and
Directors.

 

 

5.2 Actual Participation. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, from time to
time, select from all eligible individuals, those to whom Awards shall be granted and shall
determine the form and amount of each Award.

5.3 Prior Participation. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, all prior
service and participation by a Participant with the Predecessor Corporation shall be credited in
full towards a Participant’s service and participation with the Corporation.

Article 6. STOCK OPTIONS

6.1 Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, Options may be granted to
Participants in such number, and upon such terms, and at any time and from time to time as shall be
determined by the Committee.

ISOs may not be granted following the ten-year (10) anniversary of the date the Plan was last
approved by shareholders in a manner that satisfies the shareholder approval requirements
applicable to ISOs. ISOs may be granted only to Employees.

6.2 Award Agreement. Each Option grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify
the Option Price, the duration of the Option, the number of Shares to which the Option pertains,
the conditions upon which an Option shall become vested and exercisable, and such other provisions
as the Committee shall determine which are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. The Award
Agreement also shall specify whether the Option is intended to be an ISO or an NQSO.

6.3 Option Price. The Option Price for each grant of an Option under this Plan shall be as
determined by the Committee; provided, however, the Option Price shall not be less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted.

6.4 Duration of Options. Each Option granted to a Participant shall expire at such time as the
Committee shall determine at the time of grant; provided, however, no Option shall be exercisable
later than the tenth (10th) anniversary of its grant.

6.5 Exercise of Options. Options granted under this Article 6 shall be exercisable at such times
and be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall in each instance approve, which
need not be the same for each grant or for each Participant.

6.6 Payment. Options granted under this Article 6 shall be exercised by the delivery of notice of
exercise to an agent designated by the Company or by complying with any alternative procedures
which may be authorized by the Committee, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which
the Option is to be exercised.

A condition of the issuance of the Shares as to which an Option shall be exercised shall be the
payment of the Option Price. The Option may be exercised (and the Option Price may be satisfied) by
(a) delivering cash or its equivalent, (b) tendering (either by actual delivery or attestation)
previously acquired Shares having an aggregate Fair Market

 

 

Value at the time of exercise equal to the Option Price, (c) broker-assisted cashless exercise, (d)
net exercise, (e) a combination of the foregoing or (f) by any other method approved by the
Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee shall determine acceptable methods for tendering
Shares as payment upon exercise of an Option and may impose such limitations and prohibitions on
the use of Shares to exercise an Option as it deems appropriate.

Subject to any governing rules or regulations, as soon as practicable after receipt of written
notification of exercise and full payment (including satisfaction of any applicable tax
withholding), the Company shall deliver to the Participant evidence of book entry Shares, or upon
the Participant’s request, Share certificates in an appropriate amount based upon the number of
Shares purchased under the Option(s).

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, all payments under the methods indicated above shall
be paid in United States dollars.

6.7 Restrictions on Share Transferability. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares
acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option granted under this Article 6 as it may deem
advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws,
under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed
and/or traded, and under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.

6.8 Termination of Employment or Service as a Director. The impact of a termination of a
Participant’s employment on an Option’s vesting and exercise period shall be determined by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, in the Participant’s Award Agreement, and need not be uniform
among Option grants or Participants. The impact of a termination on a Participant’s service as a
Director on an Option’s vesting and exercise period shall be determined by the Committee, in its
sole discretion, in the Participant’s Award Agreement, and need not be uniform among Option grants
or Participants.

6.9 Transferability of Options. During his or her lifetime, only the Participant shall have the
right to exercise the Options. After the Participant’s death, the Participant’s estate or
beneficiary shall have the right to exercise such Options.

     (a) Incentive Stock Options. No ISO granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred,
pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution.

     (b) Nonqualified Stock Options. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award
Agreement, no NQSO granted under this Article 6 may be sold, transferred, pledged,
assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution. Under no circumstances may an NQSO be transferable for value or
consideration.

6.10 Notification of Disqualifying Disposition. If any Participant shall make any disposition of
Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of an ISO under the circumstances described in Section
421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions),

 

 

such Participant shall notify the Company of such disposition within ten (10) days thereof.

Article 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

7.1 Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, SARs may be granted to
Participants at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee. The
Committee may grant Freestanding SARs, Tandem SARs, or any combination of these forms of SARs.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee shall have complete discretion in
determining the number of SARs granted to each Participant and, consistent with the provisions of
the Plan, in determining the terms and conditions pertaining to such SARs.

The SAR Grant Price for each grant of a Freestanding SAR shall be determined by the Committee and
shall be specified in the Award Agreement. The SAR Grant Price shall not be less than one hundred

the SAR.

7.5 Exercise of Tandem SARs. Tandem SARs may be exercised for all or part of the Shares subject to

Option is then exercisable.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, with respect to a Tandem SAR
granted in connection with an ISO: (a) the Tandem SAR will expire no later than the expiration of
the underlying ISO; (b) the value of the payout with respect to the Tandem SAR may be for no more
than one hundred percent (100%) of the difference between the Option Price of the underlying ISO
and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the underlying ISO at the time the Tandem SAR is
exercised; and (c) the Tandem SAR may be exercised only when the Fair Market Value of the Shares
subject to the ISO exceeds the Option Price of the ISO.

 

 

7.6 Payment of SAR Amount. Upon the exercise of a SAR, a Participant shall be
entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:

     The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over
the Grant Price; by

     (b) The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.

At the discretion of the Committee, the payment upon a SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of
equivalent value, in some combination thereof, or in any other manner approved by the Committee at
its sole discretion. The Committee’s determination regarding the form of SAR payout shall be set
forth in the Award Agreement pertaining to the grant of the SAR.

7.7 Termination of Employment or Service as a Director. The impact of a termination of a
Participant’s employment on a SAR’s vesting and exercise period shall be determined by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, in the Participant’s Award Agreement, and need not be uniform
among SAR grants or Participants. The impact of a termination on a Participant’s service as a
Director on a SAR’s vesting and exercise period shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, in the Participant’s Award Agreement, and need not be uniform among SAR grants or
Participants.

7.8 Nontransferability of SARs. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award Agreement, no
SAR granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or
hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Under no circumstances
may a SAR be transferable for value or consideration. Further, except as otherwise provided in a
Participant’s Award Agreement, all SARs granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be
exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant.

7.9 Other Restrictions. The Committee shall impose such other conditions and/or restrictions on any
Shares received upon exercise of a SAR granted pursuant to the Plan as it may deem advisable. This
includes, but is not limited to, requiring the Participant to hold the Shares received upon
exercise of a SAR for a specified period of time.

Restricted Stock Units granted herein may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise
alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction established by the
Committee and specified in the Award Agreement (and in the case of Restricted Stock Units until the
date of delivery or other payment), or upon earlier satisfaction of any other conditions, as
specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award Agreement.

federal or state securities laws.

To the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, the Company may retain the certificates
representing Shares of Restricted Stock in the Company’s possession until such time as all
conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares have been satisfied or lapse.

Except as otherwise provided in this Article 8, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each
Restricted Stock Award shall become freely transferable by the Participant after all conditions and
restrictions applicable to such Shares have been satisfied or lapse (including satisfaction of any
applicable tax withholding obligations), and Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in cash, Shares,
or a combination of cash and Shares as the Committee, in its sole discretion shall determine.

8.5 Voting Rights. To the extent permitted or required by law, as determined by the Committee,
Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may be granted the right to
exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares during the Period of Restriction. A
Participant shall have no voting rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units granted
hereunder.

8.6 Dividends and Other Distributions. During the Period of Restriction, Participants holding
Shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder may, if the Committee so
determines, be credited with dividends paid with respect to the underlying Shares or dividend
equivalents while they are so held in a manner determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
The Committee may apply any restrictions to the dividends or dividend equivalents that the
Committee deems appropriate. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine the time and form
of payment of dividends or dividend equivalents, including cash, Shares, Restricted Stock, or
Restricted Stock Units; provided, however, that if dividends or dividend equivalents

 

 

are granted with respect to any Shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Share Units that are
subject to performance goals, the dividends or dividend equivalents shall be accumulated or
reinvested and paid following the time such performance goals are met, as set forth by the
Committee in the applicable Award Agreement.

8.7 Termination of Employment or Service as a Director. The impact of a termination of a
Participant’s employment on a Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit’s vesting and settlement
shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, in the Participant’s Award Agreement,
and need not be uniform among Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit grants or Participants. The
impact of a termination of a Participant’s service as a Director on a Restricted Stock or
Restricted Stock Unit’s vesting and settlement shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, in the Participant’s Award Agreement, and need not be uniform among Restricted Stock or
Restricted Stock Unit grants or Participants.

8.8 Section 83(b) Election. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that the Award of
Restricted Stock is conditioned upon the Participant making or refraining from making an election
with respect to the Award under Section 83(b) of the Code. If a Participant makes an election
pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code concerning a Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall be
required to file promptly a copy of such election with the Company.

Article 9. OTHER AWARDS

The Committee may grant Other Awards, which may include, without limitation, unrestricted Shares,
the payment of Shares in lieu of cash, the payment of cash based on attainment of Performance
Goals, service conditions or other goals established by the Committee and the payment of Shares in
lieu of cash under other Company incentive or bonus programs. Payment under or settlement of any
such Other Awards shall be made in such manner, at such times and subject to such terms and
conditions as the Committee may determine.

Article 10. PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Unless and until the Committee proposes for shareholder vote and the shareholders approve a change
in the general Performance Measures set forth in this Article 10, the performance goals upon which
the payment or vesting of an Award to a Covered Employee that is intended to qualify as
Performance-Based Compensation shall be limited to one or more of the following Performance
Measures:

     (a) Net earnings;

     (b) Earnings per share;

     (c) Net sales growth;

     (d) Net income (before or after taxes);

 

 

     (e) Net operating profit;

     (f) Return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, capital, equity,
or sales);

     (g) Cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free cash flow);

     (h) Cash flow return on capital;

     (i) Earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation, and/or amortization;

     (o) Operating efficiency;

     (p) Customer satisfaction;

     (q) Employee satisfaction metrics;

     (r) Human resources metrics;

     (s) Working capital targets; and

     (t) EVA®.

Any Performance Measure(s) may be used to measure the performance of the Company or an Affiliate as
a whole or any business unit of the Company or an Affiliate or any combination thereof, as the
Committee may deem appropriate, or any of the above Performance Measures as compared to the
performance of a group of comparator companies, or published or special index that the Committee,
in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, or the Company may select Performance Measure (l) above
as compared to various stock market indices. The Committee also has the authority to provide for
accelerated vesting of any Award based on the achievement of performance goals pursuant to the
Performance Measures specified in this Article 10.

The Committee may provide in any such Award that any evaluation of performance may include or
exclude any of the following events that occurs during a Performance Period: (a) asset write—downs,
(b) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (c) the effect of

 

 

changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or provisions affecting reported results,
(d) any reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) extraordinary nonrecurring items as
described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in management’s discussion and
analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report
to shareholders for the applicable year, (f) acquisitions or divestitures, and (g) foreign exchange
gains and losses. To the extent such inclusions or exclusions affect Awards to Covered Employees,
they shall be prescribed in a form that meets the requirements of Code Section 162(m) for
deductibility.

Awards that are designed to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, and that are held by Covered
Employees, may not be adjusted upward. The Committee shall retain the discretion to adjust such
Awards downward.

In the event that applicable tax and/or securities laws change to permit Committee discretion to
alter the governing Performance Measures without obtaining shareholder approval of such changes,
the Committee shall have sole discretion to make such changes without obtaining shareholder
approval.

Article 11. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who
may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case
of his or her death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each such designation
shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the
Committee, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company
during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining
unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

Article 12. RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS

12.1 Employment. Nothing in the Plan or an Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way
the right of the Company and/or its Affiliates to terminate any Participant’s employment or of the
Board of Directors to terminate service as a Director at any time or for any reason not prohibited
by law, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue his or her employment or service as a
Director for any specified period of time.

Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an employment contract
with the Company and, accordingly, subject to Article 3 and Section 14.1, this Plan and the
benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the
Committee without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company, its Affiliates, and/or
its Subsidiaries.

12.2 Participation. No individual shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under
this Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future Award.

 

 

12.3 Rights as a Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8 of the Plan or in an Award
Agreement, a Participant shall have none of the rights of a shareholder with respect to Shares
covered by any Award until the Participant becomes the record holder of such Shares.

Article 13. ACCELERATION EVENT

The Compensation Committee shall specify in each Participant’s Award Agreement the treatment of
outstanding Awards upon an Acceleration Event; provided that any Converted Award will continue to
apply the definition of “change in control” or “acceleration event” as provided in the Predecessor
Corporation Equity Plan under which such Converted Award was originally granted, as adjusted
pursuant to the terms of the Benefits and Compensation Matters Agreement.

Article 14. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION

14.1 Amendment, Modification, Suspension, and Termination. Subject to Section 14.3, the Committee
may, at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, modify, suspend, or terminate the Plan and
any Award Agreement in whole or in part; provided, however, that, except for a
change or adjustment made pursuant to Section 4.2, no Option Price of an outstanding Option or
Grant Price of an outstanding SAR shall be reduced (whether through amendment, cancellation or
replacement of Awards with other Awards or other payments of cash or property) without shareholder
approval.

14.2 Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The
Committee may make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards
in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events
described in Section 4.2 hereof) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company
or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Committee
determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent unintended dilution or
enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan. The
determination of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and
binding on Participants under the Plan.

14.3 Awards Previously Granted. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no
termination, amendment, suspension, or modification of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall
adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the
written consent of the Participant holding such Award.

Article 15. WITHHOLDING

15.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or
require a Participant to remit to the Company, the minimum statutory amount to satisfy federal,
state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with
respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Plan.

 

 

15.2 Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of Options, or SARs,
upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, or any other taxable
event arising as a result of Awards granted hereunder, Participants may elect, subject to the
approval of the Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having
the Company withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined
equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction. All such
elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, and signed by the Participant, and shall be
subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate.

Article 16. SUCCESSORS

All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be
binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a
direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of
the business and/or assets of the Company.

Article 17. GENERAL PROVISIONS

17.1 Forfeiture Events. The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s
rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction,
cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in
addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events
shall include, but shall not be limited to, termination of employment for cause, violation of
material Company and/or Affiliate policies, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality, or other
restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that
is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company and/or its Affiliates.

17.2 Legend. The certificates for Shares may include any legend which the Committee deems
appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer of such Shares.

17.3 Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used
herein also shall include the feminine, the plural shall include the singular, and the singular
shall include the plural.

17.4 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any
reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan
shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

17.5 Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares under the Plan shall be
subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental
agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

17.6 Securities Law Compliance. With respect to Insiders, transactions under this Plan are intended
to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successor

 

 

under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to
so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by
the Committee.

17.7 Registration and Listing. The Company may use reasonable endeavors to register Shares allotted
pursuant to the exercise of an Award with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or
to effect compliance with the registration, qualification, and listing requirements of any national
securities laws, stock exchange, or automated quotation system.

17.8 Delivery of Title. The Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver evidence of title
for Shares issued under the Plan prior to:

     (a) Obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are
necessary or advisable; and

     (b) Completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any
applicable national or foreign law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company
determines to be necessary or advisable.

17.9 Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any
regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be
necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any
liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite
authority shall not have been obtained.

17.10 Employees or Directors Based Outside of the United States. Notwithstanding any provision of
the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other countries in which the Company
and its Affiliates operate or have Employees or Directors, the Committee, in its sole discretion,
shall have the power and authority to:

     (a) Determine which Affiliates shall be covered by the Plan;

     (b) Determine which Employees and/or Directors outside the United States are eligible
to participate in the Plan;

     (c) Modify the administrative terms and conditions of any Award granted to Employees
and/or Directors outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign laws;

     (d) Establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures,
to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable. Any subplans and modifications to
Plan terms and procedures established under this Section 17.10 by the Committee shall be
attached to this Plan document as appendices; and

 

 

     (e) Take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems advisable to
obtain approval or comply with any necessary local government regulatory exemptions or
approvals.

Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be
granted, that would violate the Exchange Act, the Code, any securities law, or governing statute or
any other applicable law.

17.11 Uncertificated Shares. To the extent that the Plan provides for issuance of certificates to
reflect the transfer of Shares, the transfer of such Shares may be effected on a noncertificated
basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange.

17.12 Unfunded Plan. Participants shall have no right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any
investments that the Company may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under the Plan. Nothing
contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed
to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant,
beneficiary, legal representative, or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a
right to receive payments from the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the
right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. All payments to be made hereunder shall be
paid from the general funds of the Company and no special or separate fund shall be established and
no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such amounts except as expressly set
forth in the Plan. The Plan is not subject to ERISA.

17.13 No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan
or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, Awards, or other property shall be issued
or paid in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall
be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

17.14 Retirement and Welfare Plans. The value of compensation paid under this Plan will not be
included as “compensation” for purposes of computing the benefits payable to any participant under
the Company’s retirement plans (both qualified and non-qualified) or welfare benefit plans unless
such other plan expressly provides that such compensation shall be taken into account in computing
a participant’s benefit.

17.15 Governing Law. The Plan and each Award Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of New York, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer
construction or interpretation of the Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction. Unless
otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, recipients of an Award under the Plan are deemed to
submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal or state courts of New York, to
resolve any and all issues that may arise out of or relate to the Plan or any related Award
Agreement.exv4w4

EXELIS SALARIED INVESTMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN

(As Amended and Restated Effective October 31, 2011)

ARTICLE 1

INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE

The ITT Investment and Savings Plan for Salaried Employees (the “ISP”) was established effective
April 1, 1974 by ITT Corporation for the benefit of certain salaried employees. The ISP was
subsequently renamed the ITT Salaried Investment and Savings Plan.

The ISP was amended and restated effective November 27, 2001, to convert a portion of the ISP into
an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(7) of the Internal
Revenue Code (the “Code”). Effective January 1, 2007, the ESOP was amended to include only amounts
invested in ITT Corporation stock.

The ISP was amended and restated, effective as of January 1, 2002, to reflect certain design and
administrative changes and to conform the ISP to certain legislative and regulatory changes that
went into effect since the prior restatement.

The ISP was last amended and restated, generally effective January 1, 2010. That restatement
incorporated all amendments adopted to the ISP since its prior restatement and was intended to
reflect then current law and regulations including but not limited to the Economic Growth and Tax
Relief Reconciliation Act of 2002 (“EGTRRA”); the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (“PPA”); the
Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Tax Act of 2008 (“HEART”); and the Worker, Retiree, and
Employer Recovery Act of 2008 (“WRERA”), to the extent applicable and effective as of the date of
that restatement.

Effective October 31, 2011, ITT Corporation restructured into three separate publicly traded
companies named ITT Corporation, Exelis Inc., and Xylem Inc. In connection with the restructuring,
sponsorship of the ISP was transferred to Exelis Inc. Also in connection with the restructuring,
ITT Corporation and Xylem Inc. each established new profit sharing plans with cash or deferred
arrangements and employee stock ownership plan features. Assets in the ISP attributable to members
who became employees of ITT Corporation and Xylem Inc. on October 31, 2011 were transferred to the
new plans of ITT Corporation and Xylem Inc. as applicable. Assets in the ISP attributable to
members who became employees of Exelis Inc. remained in the ISP and were transferred to the trust
established by excels Inc. in connection with its becoming the sponsor of the ISP.

The ISP is hereby renamed the Exelis Salaried Investment and Savings Plan (hereinafter referred to
as the “Plan”) and is hereby amended and restated effective October 31, 2011 as contained in this
Plan document. This Plan shall constitute a successor plan to the ISP.

The Plan is intended to constitute a profit sharing plan with an employee stock ownership plan
(“ESOP”) feature within the meaning of Section 4975(e) of the Code and a cash or deferred
arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code. The portion of the Plan intended to
qualify as an ESOP is designed to invest primarily in qualifying employer securities as such term
is defined in Section

1

 

4975(e)(8) of the Code and is intended to comply with the distributions
requirements of Section 409(o) of the Code.

The provisions of the Plan as amended and restated herein are conditioned upon the Plan’s
qualification under Section 401(a) of the Code and Company contributions being deductible under
Section 404 of the Code. It is further intended that
the Plan also conform to the requirements of Title I of ERISA and that the Trust be qualified under
Section 501 of the Code.

ARTICLE 2

DEFINITIONS

	2.1	 	“Accounts” shall mean, with respect to any Member or Deferred Member, his After-Tax Account,
Before-Tax Account, Company Floor Account, Company Matching Account, Prior ESOP Account, Prior
Plan Account, and Rollover Account.
	 
	2.2	 	“Actual Contribution Percentage” shall mean, with respect to a specified group of Employees
referred to in Section 4.6, the average of the ratios, calculated separately for each Employee
in that group, of:

	 	(a)	 	the sum of the After-Tax Savings and Company Matching Contributions (excluding
Company Matching Contributions forfeited under Section 4.1 or 4.6) made for a Plan Year
to
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Employee’s Statutory Compensation for a Plan Year

	 	 	provided, however, that only Company Matching Contributions that are permitted to be taken
into account under applicable Treasury Regulations for purposes of the test described in
Section 4.6 shall be taken into account for purposes of calculating the Actual Contribution
Percentage. An Actual Contribution Percentage shall be computed to the nearest one-hundredth
of one percent of the Employee’s Statutory Compensation. For purposes of this calculation,
the non-Highly Compensated Employee Actual Contribution Percentage shall be determined based
on the then current Plan Year and the Highly Compensated Employee Actual Contribution
Percentage shall also be determined for the then current Plan Year. For purposes of this
Section, Statutory Compensation shall exclude compensation paid to the Employee while he is
not a Plan Member.
	 
	2.3	 	“Actual Deferral Percentage” shall mean, with respect to a specified group of Employees
referred to in Section 4.1(d), the average of the ratios, calculated separately for each
Employee in that group, of:

	 	(a)	 	the amount of Regular Before-Tax Savings made on the Employee’s behalf for a Plan
Year under Section 4.1(a) (including Regular Before-Tax Savings returned to a Highly
Compensated Employee under Section 4.1(c)(ii) and Regular Before-Tax Savings returned to
any Employee under Section 4.1(c)(iii)) to
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Employee’s Statutory Compensation for a Plan Year.

	 	 	Such Actual Deferral Percentage shall be computed to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent
of the Employee’s Statutory Compensation. For purposes of this calculation, the non-Highly
Compensated Employee Actual Deferral Percentage shall be determined based on the then current
Plan Year and the Highly Compensated Employee Actual Deferral Percentage shall also be
determined for the then current Plan Year. For purposes of this Section, Statutory
Compensation shall exclude compensation paid to the Employee while he is not a Plan Member.
For purposes of this Section, Regular Before-Tax Savings may be taken into account for a Plan
Year only if they relate to compensation that either would have been received by the Member
in the Plan Year but for the deferral election or are attributable to services performed by
the Member in the Plan Year and would have been received by the Member within 21/2 months after
the close of the Plan Year but for the deferral election; are allocated to the Member as of a
date within that Plan Year and the allocation is not contingent on the participation or
performance of service after such date;

3

12 months after the end of the Plan Year to which the contributions relate.

	2.4	 	“After-Tax Account” shall mean that portion of the Trust Fund, which, with respect to any

profit sharing or other defined contribution plan previously in effect at a
Participating Corporation or Participating Division and that are transferred to the Plan
on the Member’s behalf

	 	 	plus any investment earnings and gains or losses on such amounts.

	2.5	 	“After-Tax Savings” shall mean the contributions made by a Member pursuant to Section 4.2.
	 
	2.6	 	“Associated Company” shall mean any division, subsidiary or affiliated company of Exelis not
participating in the Plan designated by the Board of Directors or by the Benefits
Administration Committee, pursuant to authority delegated to it by the Board of Directors, as
an Associated Company for purposes of the Plan during the period for which such designation
exists; provided, however, that any such division, subsidiary or affiliated company not
participating in the Plan which is:

	 	(a)	 	a component member of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in Section
414(b) of the Code), which controlled group of corporations includes as a component
member Exelis;
	 
	 	(b)	 	any trade or business under common control (as defined in Section 414(c) of the
Code) with Exelis;
	 
	 	(c)	 	any organization (whether or not incorporated) which is a member of an affiliated
service group (as defined in Section 414(m) of the Code) which includes Exelis; or
	 
	 	(d)	 	any other entity required to be aggregated with Exelis pursuant to regulations
under Section 414(o) of the Code,

	 	 	shall automatically be an Associated Company hereunder during the period it is a division,
subsidiary or affiliated company of Exelis or during such period as may otherwise be
determined by the Board of Directors or by the Benefits Administration Committee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of the preceding sentence and Section 5.4(a) of
the Plan the definitions of Section 414(b) and (c) of the Code shall be modified by
substituting the phrase “more than 50 percent” for the phrase “at least 80 percent” each
place it appears in Section 1463(a)(1) of the Code.

	2.7	 	“Before-Tax Account” shall mean that portion of the Trust Fund, which, with respect to any
Member or Deferred Member, is attributable to:

	 	(a)	 	Regular Before-Tax Savings made to the Plan under Section 4.1(a);
	 
	 	(b)	 	Catch-Up Contributions made to the Plan under Section 4.1(b); and

4

 

	 	(c)	 	any amounts that are attributable to before-tax contributions (including catch-up
contributions) made to the ISP or any qualified profit sharing or other defined
contribution plan previously in effect at a Participating Corporation or Participating
Division and that are transferred to the Plan on the Member’s behalf

	 	 	plus any investment earnings and gains or losses on such amounts.
	 
	2.8	 	“Before-Tax Savings” shall mean:

	 	(a)	 	Regular Before-Tax contributions made on a Member’s behalf under Section 4.1(a);
and
	 
	 	(b)	 	Catch-Up Contributions made on a Member’s behalf under Section 4.1(b).

	2.9	 	“Beneficiary” shall mean such primary beneficiary or beneficiaries as may be designated from
time to time by the Member or Deferred Member, in accordance with procedures prescribed by the
Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose, to receive, in the event of the Member’s
or Deferred Member’s death, the value of his Vested Share at the time of his death. If more
than one Beneficiary is designated, the percentage payable to each Beneficiary must be
designated. A Member may also designate a contingent Beneficiary to receive the value of his
Vested Share at the time of the Member’s death in the event the primary beneficiary
predeceases the Member, or, if there is more than one primary beneficiary, in the event all
primary beneficiaries predecease the Member. In the event that more than one primary

Beneficiary shall remain valid unless otherwise provided in a qualified domestic relations
order (as described in Article 18 of the Plan) or unless such Member or Deferred Member

in effect at the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death or if no person, persons or entity so
designated survives the Member or Deferred Member, the Member’s or Deferred Member’s surviving

	 	(a)	 	A Member shall file an enrollment election with the Savings Plan Administrator in
a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee. By filing the
enrollment election, the Employee shall designate a Beneficiary and he may:

	 	(i)	 	designate the rate of his After-Tax Savings and authorize the
Company to make regular payroll deductions of the amount of his After-Tax
Savings, if any;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	designate the rate of his Before-Tax Savings and authorize the
Company to reduce his Salary by the amount of his Before-Tax Savings, if any;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	make an investment election as described in Section 7.2; and
	 
	 	(iv)	 	make a dividend election as described in Section 8.7.

	 	 	 	A Member’s election shall become effective as soon as administratively possible
following the date such election is made in accordance with procedures prescribed by
the Benefits Administration Committee.
	 
	 	(b)	 	In the case of a Member who does not file a timely enrollment election under (a)
above with the Savings Plan Administrator in a form or manner approved by the Benefits
Administration Committee with respect to his initial Enrollment Date, such Member shall,
except as otherwise provided herein:

	 	(i)	 	be deemed to have designated his spouse as his Beneficiary if he is
married and be deemed to have designated his estate as his Beneficiary if he is
unmarried;

15

 

	 	(ii)	 	be deemed to have elected to have Company Floor Contributions under
Section 5.2 invested in the Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on
the Member’s year of birth (or such other Investment Fund as may be designated by
the PFTIC); and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	be deemed to have dividends paid with respect to ITT Stock in the
ESOP reinvested in shares of ITT Stock.

	 	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member who is deemed to have made elections hereunder
may elect to change such deemed elections as of the later of the first day of any
subsequent pay period or as soon as administratively possible thereafter by making an
election in the form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee.

	3.3	 	Rehired Member
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary with respect to Enrollment Dates contained herein,
any rehired Employee who at the time of his Termination of Employment was eligible to be a
Member will become a Member as of the date of such Employee’s rehire (his “re-enrollment
date”) and the provisions of Section 3.2 shall be applied in a manner similar to a new
Member.
	 
	3.4	 	Transferred Members
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Member who remains in the employ
of the Company or an Associated Company but ceases to be an Employee shall continue to be a
Member of the Plan but shall not be eligible to make Before-Tax Savings or After-Tax Savings
or to receive allocations of Company Matching Contributions or Company Floor Contributions
while his employment status is other than as an Employee.
	 
	3.5	 	Termination of Membership
	 
	 	 	A Member’s membership shall terminate on the date he is no longer employed by the Company or
any Associated Company unless the Member is entitled to benefits under the Plan in which
event his membership shall terminate when those benefits are distributed to him.

ARTICLE 4

MEMBER SAVINGS

	4.1	 	Member Before-Tax Saving.

	 	(a)	 	Regular Before-Tax Savings

	 	(i)	 	Each Member, other than a Member subject to Puerto Rican income
tax, may elect, subject to the provisions of (iii) and (c) below, to have his
subsequent Salary reduced by any whole percentage from 2% to 25%, and to have
that amount contributed to the Trust Fund as Before-Tax Savings by the Company
that employs said Member. Before-Tax Savings under this Section 4.1(a)(i)
shall be referred to as “Regular Before-Tax Savings.” Such election shall be
effective as soon as administratively possible following the date such election
is made in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Benefits Administration
Committee. A Member may also elect not to have his Salary reduced and to
receive his entire Salary in cash from the Company.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	With respect to Members who on and after January 1, 2006 are
hired or rehired, or whose status changes to that of an Employee or who are
employed on a temporary or part-time basis and first complete a 1,000 Hours
Worked on or after January 1, 2006, effective as of such Member’s Enrollment
Date, a Member who has not made the election described in (i) above shall have
his Salary reduced by 2 percent and that amount shall be contributed on his
behalf to the Plan by the Company as Regular Before-Tax Savings until and
unless the Member elects, in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the
Benefits Administration Committee, to either receive such Salary directly from
the Company in cash or to reduce his Salary as described above in some other
percentage. Such reduction in Salary shall be applied to Salary that could
have been subsequently received by the Member. Such amounts shall be invested
in the Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the Member’s year of
birth (or such other Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC) until
the Member makes an investment election pursuant to Section 7.2.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	From time to time and in order to comply with Section
40l(k)(3) of the Code, the Benefit Administration Committee may impose a
limitation on the extent to which a Member who is a Highly Compensated Employee
may reduce his Salary in accordance herewith, based on the Benefits
Administration Committee’s reasonable projection of Before-Tax Savings rates of
Members who are not Highly Compensated Employees.
	 
	 	(iv)	 	A Member may elect to change the rate of his Salary reduction
under this paragraph (a) as of the first day of any pay period by making an
election in the form or manner approved by the Benefit Administration Committee
for such purpose. The changed rate of Salary reduction shall be effective as
soon as administratively possible following the date the election is received
by the Savings Plan Administrator.

17

 

	 	(b)	 	Catch-Up Contributions
	 
	 	 	 	A Member, other than a Member subject to Puerto Rican income tax, who has attained
or will attain age 50 by the last day of the Member’s taxable year may elect, in
accordance with procedures prescribed by the Benefit Administration Committee, to
make Catch-Up
Contributions for any Plan Year in accordance with and subject to the limitations of
Section 414(v) of the Code. Such Catch-Up Contributions shall be treated under the
Plan as Before-Tax Savings but shall be subject to the following special rules:

	 	(i)	 	A Member’s Catch-Up Contributions shall not be taken into
account for purposes of applying the maximum percentage limitation described in
(a)(i) above or the limitations under Sections 402(g) and 415 of the Code and
Members’ Catch-Up Contributions shall not be taken into account in applying the
Actual Deferral Percentage test of (d) below.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	The Plan shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the
provisions of the Plan implementing the requirements of Section 401(k)(3),
401(k)(11), 401(k)(12), 410(b), or 416 of the Code, as applicable, by reason of
making such Catch-Up Contributions.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	The determination of whether a Before-Tax Savings contribution
under this Section constitutes a Catch-Up Contribution for any Plan Year shall
be determined as of the end of such Plan Year, in accordance with Section
414(v) of the Code. Before-Tax Savings contributions that are intended to be
Catch-Up Contributions for a Plan Year but which do not qualify as Catch-Up
Contributions as of the end of the Plan Year shall be treated for all purposes
under the Plan as regular Before-Tax Savings, except that the provisions of
(iv) below shall continue to apply to such reclassified Catch-Up Contributions
and no Company Matching Contributions will be allocated with respect to such
reclassified contributions.
	 
	 	(iv)	 	The Company shall not take a Member’s Catch-Up Contributions
into account for purposes of determining the amount of Company Matching
Contributions under Section 5.1 for a Plan Year.
	 
	 	(v)	 	A Member’s Catch-Up Contributions shall be subject to the same
withdrawal and distribution restrictions as Regular Before-Tax Savings
contributions.
	 
	 	(vi)	 	In the event that the sum of a Member’s Catch-Up Contributions
and similar contributions to any other qualified defined contribution plan
maintained by the Company or an Associated Company exceeds the dollar limit on
catch-up contributions under Section 414(v) of the Code for any calendar year
as in effect for such calendar year, the Member shall be deemed to have elected
a return of the Catch-Up Contributions in excess of the limit under Section
414(v) of the Code and such amount shall be treated in the same manner as
“excess deferrals” under (c) below.
	 
	 	(vii)	 	If a Member makes catch-up contributions under a qualified
defined contribution plan and/or Code Section 403(b) plan maintained by an
employer other than the Company or an Associated Company for any calendar year
and those contributions when added to his Catch-Up Contributions exceed the
dollar limit on catch-up contributions under Section 414(v) of the Code for
that calendar

18

 

	 	 	 	year, the Member may allocate all or a portion of such “excess
catch-up contributions” to this Plan. In the event such Member notifies the
Benefits Administration Committee of the “excess catch-up contributions” in the
same manner as is required for allocated “excess deferrals” under (c) below,
such “excess catch-up contributions” shall be distributed in the same manner as
“excess deferrals” under (c) below.

	 	 	 	A Member may elect to change the rate of his Catch-Up Contributions under this
paragraph (b) as of the first day of any pay period by making an election in the
form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose.
The changed rate of Catch-Up Contributions shall be effective as soon as
administratively possible following the date the election is received by the Savings
Plan Administrator.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Application of Maximum Dollar Limit on Regular Before-Tax Savings
	 
	 	 	 	The maximum dollar amount of Before-Tax Savings and similar contributions made on a
Member’s behalf by the Company or any Associated Company to all plans, contracts or
arrangements subject to the provisions of Section 401(a)(30) of the Code for a
calendar year shall be the maximum amount determined by the Secretary of the
Treasury for such calendar year, pursuant to Section 402(g) of the Code as in effect
for such calendar year, except as permitted under Section 414(v) of the Code.
Amounts contributed in excess of such limit shall constitute “excess deferrals.”

	 	 	 	 (i) Prevention of Excess Deferrals Under Plan. If a Member’s Regular
Before-Tax Savings in a calendar year reach the dollar limit on elective
deferrals under Section 401(a)(30) of the Code in any calendar year, the
Member’s election to make Regular Before-Tax Savings will be reclassified as
an election to make After-Tax Savings to be matched by Company Matching
Contributions, at the same rate as was previously in effect for his
Before-Tax Savings. Each Member affected by this paragraph may elect to
change or suspend the rate at which he makes After-Tax Savings. As of the
first pay period of the calendar year following such cancellation, the
Member’s election of Regular Before-Tax Savings shall again become effective
in accordance with his previous election, unless the Member made a
subsequent election to change his Savings rate after his Regular Before-Tax
Savings were reclassified as After-Tax Savings.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Treatment of Excess Deferrals Under Plan and Plans of
Associated Companies. In the event that the sum of a Member’s Regular
Before-Tax Savings and similar contributions to any other qualified defined
contribution plan maintained by the Company or an Associated Company exceeds
the dollar limit on elective deferrals under Section 402(g) of the Code for any
calendar year as in effect for such calendar year, a Member who is eligible to
make Catch-Up Contributions to the Plan will be deemed to have such excess
deferrals reclassified as Catch-Up Contributions, subject to the limitations of
(b) above. To the extent that the reclassification described in the preceding
sentence is not applicable, or is insufficient to fully resolve the issue of
the excess deferrals, the Member’s election to make Regular Before-Tax Savings
will be reclassified as an election to make After-Tax Savings. For this
purpose, the excess deferrals, together with Earnings, shall be deemed
distributed to the Member and then recontributed to the Plan by the Member as
After-Tax Savings for the Plan Year in which the excess deferrals were made.
Reclassified excess deferrals, together with Earnings, shall be considered
After-Tax Savings made in the Plan Year to which the excess deferrals relate
for purposes of Section 4.6 and shall be subject to the

19

 

	 	 	 	withdrawal provisions
applicable to After-Tax Savings under Article 9. If the excess deferrals were
matched by Company Matching Contributions, the corresponding Company Matching
Contributions shall remain allocated to the Member’s Company Matching Account
to the extent such excess deferrals if
made, as After-Tax Savings would have been matched under the provisions of
Section 5.1. To the extent that the reclassification described in the
preceding sentence is not applicable, or is insufficient to fully resolve
the issue of the excess deferrals, the Member shall be deemed to have
elected a return of the Regular Before-Tax Savings in excess of the limit
under Section 402(g) of the Code from this Plan. The excess deferrals,
together with Earnings, shall be returned to the Member no later than April
15 following the end of the calendar year in which the excess deferrals were
made. The amount of excess deferrals to be returned for any calendar year
shall be reduced by any Regular Before-Tax Savings previously returned to
the Member under (d) below for that calendar year. In the event any Regular
Before-Tax Savings returned under this paragraph were matched by Company
Matching Contributions, those Company Matching Contributions, together with
Earnings, shall be forfeited and used to reduce future Company
contributions.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Treatment of Member-Allocated Excess Deferrals. If a Member
makes tax-deferred contributions under another qualified defined contribution
plan and/or a Code Section 403(b) plan maintained by an employer other than the
Company or an Associated Company for any calendar year and those contributions
when added to his Regular Before-Tax Savings exceed the dollar limit on
elective deferrals under Section 402(g) of the Code for that calendar year, the
Member may allocate all or a portion of such excess deferrals to this Plan. In
that event, a Member who is eligible to make Catch-Up Contributions to the Plan
will be deemed to have such excess deferrals reclassified as Catch-Up
Contributions, subject to the limitations of (b) above. To the extent that the
reclassification described in the preceding sentence is not applicable, or is
insufficient to fully resolve the issue of the excess deferrals, such excess
deferrals, together with Earnings, shall be returned to the Member no later
than the April 15 following the end of the calendar year in which such excess
deferrals were made. However, the Plan shall not be required to return excess
deferrals unless the Member notifies the Benefits Administration Committee or
its designee, in writing, on or before his Enrollment Date or such later date
as determined by the Benefits Administration Committee (but not later than
March 1, of that following year), of the amount of the tax-deferred
contributions made to the plan of the other employer. The amount of any excess
deferrals to be returned for any calendar year shall be reduced by any Regular
Before-Tax Savings previously returned to the Member under (d) below for that
calendar year. In the event any Regular Before-Tax Savings returned under this
paragraph were matched by Company Matching Contributions, those Company
Matching Contributions, together with Earnings, shall be forfeited and used to
reduce Company contributions.
	 
	 	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of a return of the excess deferrals,
a Member may elect to have the Plan treat all or a portion of the excess
deferrals attributable to his Regular Before-Tax Savings as After-Tax
Savings, subject to the limitations of Section 4.2; provided the Member
notifies the Benefits Administration Committee or its designee, in writing,
on or before his Enrollment Date or such later date as determined by the
Benefits Administration

20

 

	 	 	 	Committee. For this purpose, the excess deferrals,
together with Earnings, shall be deemed distributed to the Member and then
recontributed to the Plan by the Member as After-Tax Savings for the Plan
Year in which the excess deferrals were made. Reclassified excess deferrals
shall be considered After-Tax Savings
made in the Plan Year to which the excess deferrals relate for purposes of
Section 4.6 and shall be subject to the withdrawal provisions applicable to
After-Tax Savings under Article 9. If the excess deferrals were matched by
Company Matching Contributions, the corresponding Company Matching
Contributions shall remain allocated to the Member’s Company Account to the
extent such excess deferrals if made, as After-Tax Savings would have been
matched under the provisions of Section 5.1. The Member’s election to
reclassify excess deferrals shall be made no later than April 1 following
the close of the Plan Year in which the excess deferrals were made or within
such shorter period as the Benefits Administration Committee may prescribe.
	 
	 	(iv)	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Member who
(A) ceases to be an Employee during a Plan Year; (B) is employed during such
Plan Year by an employer which is not the Company or an Associated Company; and
(C) exceeds the limitation on elective deferrals enumerated in Section 402(g)
of the Code based on the Member’s participation in the Plan and participation
in a plan maintained by the subsequent employer; the Plan shall not distribute
to the Member any Before-Tax Savings (or any income thereon) arising solely as
a result of such Member’s exceeding the limit under Section 402(g) of the Code
for the Plan Year, unless the exceeding of such limit is based solely on the
Member’s participation in this Plan without considering any other plan.

	 	(d)	 	ADP Test on Before-Tax Savings
	 
	 	 	 	With respect to each Plan Year, the Plan shall satisfy the actual deferral
percentage (“ADP”) test as prescribed in this Section. Amounts that would cause the
Plan to fail the ADP test shall constitute “excess contributions.”

	 	(i)	 	With respect to each Plan Year, the Actual Deferral Percentage
for Highly Compensated Employees who are Members shall not exceed the greater
of:

	 	(A)	 	125 percent of the Actual Deferral Percentage
for all other Employees who are Members; or
	 
	 	(B)	 	the lesser of (1) 200 percent of the Actual
Deferral Percentage of all other Employees who are Members, or (2) the
Actual Deferral Percentage of all other Employees who are Members plus
2 percentage points.

	 	(ii)	 	In the event the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly
Compensated Employees for any Plan Year exceeds the limits described in (i)
above, the excess contributions shall first be treated as Catch-Up
Contributions to the extent possible under (b) above.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Any remaining excess contributions, together with Earnings
thereon, will be allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the
greatest dollar amount of such contributions in the following manner:

21

 

	 	(A)	 	The amount to be allocated shall be the lesser
of (1) the total excess contributions or (2) such amount as will cause
the dollar amount of such Highly Compensated Employee’s Regular
Before-Tax Savings to equal the dollar amount of the Regular Before-Tax
Savings of the Highly
Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of Regular
Before-Tax Savings.
	 
	 	(B)	 	The process described in (A) above shall be
repeated, if necessary, until the total excess contributions shall have
been allocated. At any stage in this allocation process, if two or
more Highly Compensated Employees have the same dollar amount remaining
of Regular Before-Tax Savings, the allocation shall be made to both of
them in equal amounts.

	 	(iv)	 	The excess contributions allocated to Highly Compensated
Employees under (iii) above shall be distributed to such Members before the
close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the excess
contributions were made, and to the extent practicable, within 21/2 months of the
close of the Plan Year in which the excess contributions were made.
Alternatively, under rules adopted by the Benefits Administration Committee,
such Members may elect to recharacterize such excess contributions as After-Tax
Savings provided such election to recharacterize the excess contributions is
made within 21/2 months after the close of the Plan Year in which the excess
contributions were made or within such shorter period as the Benefits
Administration Committee may prescribe. When the total excess contributions
shall have been allocated and distributed or recharacterized in the manner
described above, the Plan shall be deemed to satisfy the tests set forth in
this Section, regardless of whether the final Average Deferral Percentage of
the Highly Compensated Employees in fact satisfy such tests. In the event any
Regular Before-Tax Savings distributed under this Section were matched by
Company Matching Contributions, those Company Matching Contributions, together
with Earnings, shall be forfeited and used to reduce Company contributions.

	4.2	 	Member After-Tax Savings

	 	(a)	 	By authorizing payroll deductions, each Member may elect, subject to (b) below,
to contribute to the Trust Fund as After-Tax Savings any whole percentage from 1% to
25% of his Salary in such payroll period, effective as soon as administratively
possible following the date such election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator
or its designee. A Member may not contribute more than the difference between 25% of
his Salary and the amount of Before-Tax Savings he elected pursuant to Section 4.1(a).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member who contributes only After-Tax Savings in
accordance with this Section shall be subject to a minimum contribution of 2% of his
Salary.
	 
	 	(b)	 	From time to time and in order to comply with Section 40l(m) of the Code, the
Benefits Administration Committee may impose an additional limit on the extent to which
a Member who is a Highly Compensated Employee may contribute to the Trust Fund as
After-Tax Savings, based on the Benefits Administration Committee’s reasonable
projection of After-Tax Savings rates of Members who are not Highly Compensated
Employees and the necessity of satisfying the test described in Section 4.6.

22

 

	 	 	A Member may elect to change his After-Tax Savings rate on any business day by making an
election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such
purpose. The changed After-Tax Savings rate shall be effective as soon as administratively
possible following the date notice is received by the Savings Plan Administrator or its
designee.
	 
	4.3	 	Suspension and Resumption of Member Savings

	 	(a)	 	A Member may suspend his Savings under Section 4.1 and/or Section 4.2 as of any
business day by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits
Administration Committee for such purpose. Such suspension will become effective as
soon as administratively possible following the date the election is received by the
Savings Plan Administrator or its designee. If a Member takes a withdrawal from his
Before-Tax Account under Section 9.3(b), his Savings shall be suspended for a period of
six months. Such suspension will become effective as soon as administratively possible
following the Withdrawal Valuation Date. No Company Matching Contributions shall be
made under Section 5.1 during the period of a Member’s suspension although he will
continue to be considered a Member and he will be entitled to Company Floor
Contributions.
	 
	 	(b)	 	A Member who suspends his Savings in accordance with the first sentence of (a)
above may resume his Savings under Section 4.1 and/or under Section 4.2 as of any pay
period after the date the suspension commenced by making an election in a form or
manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose.
	 
	 	(c)	 	A Member whose Savings are suspended in accordance with the third sentence of
(a) above may resume his Savings under Section 4.1 and/or under Section 4.2 as of the
first day of any pay period following the six-month suspension by making an election in
a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose. A
resumption elected pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall occur as soon as administratively
possible after the election is received by the Savings Plan Administrator or its
designee.

	4.4	 	Rollover Contributions

	 	(a)	 	With the permission of the Benefits Administration Committee, and without
regard to any limitation on contributions under this Article 4 or Section 5.6, the Plan
may accept from or on behalf of a Member, but not a Deferred Member, a Rollover
Contribution in cash, consisting of any amount, including after-tax amounts but
excluding any amount attributable to Roth contributions, previously received (or deemed
to be received) by him from an “eligible retirement plan.” Such Rollover Contributions
shall be subject to the following:

	 	(i)	 	For purposes of this Section, “eligible retirement plan” means:

	 	(A)	 	another employer’s qualified plan described in
Section 401(a) of the Code (or another Exelis qualified defined
contribution plan, provided that the Rollover Contribution represents
the rollover of all or a portion of a full distribution of the
individual’s account balance in such plan due to the sale or closing of
a business unit sponsoring such plan);
	 
	 	(B)	 	an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of
the Code;
	 
	 	(C)	 	an annuity contract described in Section 403(b)
of the Code;

23

 

	 	(D)	 	an eligible Plan under Section 457(b) of the
Code that is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state or
any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a
state; or
	 
	 	(E)	 	an individual retirement account or individual
retirement annuity of the Member described in Section 408(a) or 408(b)
of the Code that contains only amounts that were originally distributed
from a qualified plan described in Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code
(i.e., a “conduit IRA”).

	 	(b)	 	Such Rollover Contribution may be received in either of the following ways:

	 	(i)	 	The Plan may accept such amount as a direct rollover of an
eligible rollover distribution, including after-tax amounts provided such
after-tax amounts are received directly from a plan that is qualified under
Section 401(a) of the Code or an annuity contract described in Section 403(b)
of the Code.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	The Plan may accept such amount directly from the Member
provided such amount:

	 	(A)	 	was distributed to the Member by an eligible
retirement plan;
	 
	 	(B)	 	is received by the Plan on or before the 60th
day after the day it was received by the Member;
	 
	 	(C)	 	would otherwise be includible in gross income;
and
	 
	 	(D)	 	is not attributable to Roth contributions.

	 	 	 	Notwithstanding (B) above, the Benefits Administration Committee may accept a
Rollover Contribution more than 60 days after the amount was received by the Member
provided the Member has received from the Secretary of the Treasury a waiver of the
60-day requirement, pursuant to Section 402(c)(3)(B) of the Code.

	 	 	The Rollover Account shall be invested as directed by the Member, provided, however, if the
Member does not make an investment election with respect to such Rollover Contribution the
amount shall be invested in the Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the
Member’s year of birth (or such other Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC).
If the Member elects to invest the Rollover Contribution in the Exelis Stock Fund and such
contribution would cause the Member’s percentage investment in the ITT Stock Fund to exceed
the 20% maximum applicable to such fund, the amount of the Rollover Account in excess of the
amount that may be contributed to the Exelis Stock Fund shall be invested in the Target
Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the Member’s year of birth (or such other
Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC) until the Member elects otherwise
pursuant to Section 7.2(d).
	 
	4.5	 	Vesting of Member’s and Deferred Member’s Contributions
	 
	 	 	The Vested Share of each Member’s and Deferred Member’s Before-Tax Account, After-Tax
Account and Rollover Account shall be determined in accordance with Article 6.

24

 

	4.6	 	ACP Test on After-Tax Savings and Company Matching Contributions

	 	(a)	 	With respect to each Plan Year, the Plan shall satisfy the actual contribution
percentage (“ACP”) test as prescribed in this Section. Amounts that would cause the
Plan to fail the ACP test shall constitute “excess aggregate contributions.”
	 
	 	(b)	 	With respect to each Plan Year, the Actual Contribution Percentage for Highly
Compensated Employees who are Members shall not exceed the greater of:

	 	(i)	 	125 percent of the Actual Contribution Percentage for all other
Employees who are Members; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the lesser of (A) 200 percent of the Actual Contribution
Percentage of all other Employees who are Members or (B) the Actual
Contribution Percentage of all other Employees who are Members or eligible to
become Members plus 2 percentage points.

	 	(c)	 	In the event the Actual Contribution Percentage for Highly Compensated
Employees for any Plan Year exceeds the limits described in (b) above, the payment or
forfeiture of the excess aggregate contributions, together with Earnings thereon, shall
be made before the close of the Plan year following the Plan Year for which the excess
aggregate contributions were made and, to the extent practicable, any payment or
forfeiture will be made within 21/2 months following the end of the Plan Year for which
the contributions were made.
	 
	 	(d)	 	The total amount of excess aggregate contributions, together with Earnings
thereon, shall be allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the greatest
dollar amount of such contributions in the following manner:

	 	(i)	 	The amount to be allocated shall be the lesser of (A) the total
excess aggregate contributions, or (B) such amount as will cause the dollar
amount of such Highly Compensated Employee’s After Tax Savings, and, if
applicable, Company Matching Contributions, to equal the dollar amount of the
After Tax Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions, of the
Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of After Tax
Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	The process described in (i) above shall be repeated, if
necessary, until the total excess aggregate contributions shall have been
allocated. At any stage in the allocation process herein described, if two or
more Highly Compensated Employees have the same dollar amount remaining of
After Tax Savings, and, if applicable, Company Matching Contributions, the
allocation shall be made to both of them in equal amounts.

	 	(e)	 	The excess aggregate contributions allocated to Highly Compensated Employees
under (d) above, together with Earnings thereon, shall be paid or returned to a Member
from the following categories of contributions (adjusted to reflect earnings or losses
attributable thereto):

	 	(i)	 	first, unmatched After-Tax Savings;

25

 

	 	(ii)	 	second, matched After-Tax Savings (to the extent that
associated Company Matching Contributions are vested, they also shall be
distributed in this category);
	 
	 	(iii)	 	third, remaining vested Company Matching Contributions; and
	 
	 	(iv)	 	to the extent that an additional adjustment is required,
nonvested Company Matching Contributions shall be forfeited.

	 	 	 	Once the excess aggregate contributions are paid or returned as described above, the
Plan shall be deemed to satisfy the ACP test set forth in this Section, regardless
of whether the final Average Contribution Percentage of the Highly Compensated
Employees in fact satisfy such tests.
	 
	 	(f)	 	A Member’s Actual Contribution Percentage shall be determined after a Member’s
excess Before-Tax Savings are either recontributed to the Plan as After-Tax Savings or
paid to the Member.

	4.7	 	Additional Discrimination Testing Provisions

	 	(a)	 	If any Highly Compensated Employee is a member of another qualified plan of the
Company or an Associated Company, including an employee stock ownership plan described
in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code but excluding any other qualified plan which must be
mandatorily disaggregated under Section 410(b) of the Code, under which deferred cash
contributions or matching contributions are made on behalf of the Highly Compensated
Employee or under which the Highly Compensated Employee makes after-tax contributions,
the Benefits Administration Committee shall implement rules, which shall be uniformly
applicable to all employees similarly situated, to take into account all such
contributions for the Highly Compensated Employee made for the applicable Plan Year
under all such plans in applying the limitations of Sections 4.1(d) and 4.6.
If any other such qualified plan has a plan year other than the Plan Year, the
contributions to be taken into account in applying the limitations of Sections 4.1(d)
and 4.6 will be those made within the Plan Year.
	 
	 	(b)	 	In the event that this Plan is aggregated with one or more other plans to
satisfy the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) or 410(b) of the Code (other than for
purposes of the average benefit percentage test) or if one or more other plans is
aggregated with this Plan to satisfy the requirements of such sections of the Code,
then the provisions of Sections 4.1(d) and 4.6 shall be applied by determining the
Actual Deferral Percentage and Actual Contribution Percentage of employees as if all
such plans were a single plan. If this Plan is permissively aggregated with any other
plan or plans for purposes of satisfying the provisions of Section 401(k)(3) of the
Code, the aggregated plans must also satisfy the provisions of Sections 401(a)(4) and
410(b) of the Code as though they were a single plan. Plans may be aggregated under
this paragraph (b) only if they have the same plan year.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The Benefits Administration Committee may elect to use Before-Tax Savings to
satisfy the test described in Section 4.6, provided that the test described in Section
4.1(d) is met prior to such election and continues to be met following the Company’s
election to shift the application of those Before-Tax Savings from Section 4.1(d) to
Section 4.6 and provided further that the tests described in Sections 4.1(d) and 4.6
are both performed on either a prior year testing method or a current year testing
method.

26

 

	 	(d)	 	The Benefits Administration Committee may authorize that special “qualified
nonelective contributions” shall be made for a Plan Year, which shall be allocated in
such amounts and to such Members, who are not Highly Compensated Employees, as the
Benefits Administration Committee shall determine, provided such allocation procedure
complies with the applicable provisions of Treasury Regulation Section
1.401(k)-2(a)(6). The
Benefits Administration Committee shall establish such separate accounts as may be
necessary. Qualified nonelective contributions shall be 100 percent nonforfeitable
when made. Qualified nonelective contributions made for the Plan Year may be used
to satisfy the tests described in Sections 4.1(d) and 4.6, where necessary.
	 
	 	(e)	 	If the Benefits Administration Committee elects to apply the provisions of
Section 410(b)(4)(B) of the Code to satisfy the requirements of Section 401(k)(3)(A)(i)
of the Code, the Benefits Administration Committee may apply the provisions of Sections
4.1(d) and 4.6 by excluding from consideration all eligible employees (other than
Highly Compensated Employees) who have not met the minimum age and service requirements
of Section 410(a)(1)(A) of the Code.

	4.8	 	Transfer Contributions
	 
	 	 	With the permission of the Benefits Administration Committee and under such conditions as it
may require, but without regard to any limitations on contributions set forth in this
Article 4 or Section 5.6, the Plan may accept an amount, if any, from another qualified plan
that, in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.10, the Member elects under such plan
to transfer to this Plan, or which the Trustee of such other qualified plan transfers
directly to the Trustee of this Plan. Such transfer contributions shall be paid to the
Trustee as soon as practicable and shall be held in the Accounts of the Member, as
determined by the Benefits Administration Committee. The Member shall be required to
establish that such prior employer’s plan assets meets the qualification requirements under
Section 401(a) of the Code; and no such trust-to-trust transfer shall be permitted unless
the amount transferred is free of all defined benefit or money purchase characteristics and
does not make the Plan a transferee plan under Section 401(a)(11)(B)(iii)(III) of the Code.

ARTICLE 5

COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS

	5.1	 	Company Matching Contributions
	 
	 	 	The Company, with respect to each Member employed by it, shall contribute to the Trust a
Company Matching Contribution in an amount equal to 50% of the Member’s Savings for each pay
period; provided, however, that only 6% of the Member’s Salary will be eligible for such a
Company Matching Contribution during each pay period. Company Matching Contributions will
be applied first to a Member’s Before-Tax Savings. Any remaining Company Matching
Contributions will be applied to the Member’s After-Tax Savings. Company Matching
Contributions shall be invested pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2. Company Matching
Contributions shall be credited to the Member’s Company Matching Account. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Company Matching Contributions shall not be made in respect of a Member’s
Savings that are made during a suspension period following a withdrawal prior to Termination
of Employment as provided in Section 9.8. Company Matching Contributions shall also not be
made with respect to Catch-Up Contributions, described in Section 4.1(b).
	 
	5.2	 	Company Floor Contributions
	 
	 	 	The Company shall contribute to the Trust Fund, with respect to each Member employed by it,
a Company Floor Contribution in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of such
Member’s Salary for each pay period. Company Floor Contributions shall be invested in the
Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the Member’s year of birth (or such
other Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC) until the Member makes an
investment election pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2. Company Floor Contributions
shall be credited to the Member’s Company Floor Account. For any given month, the Company,
in its discretion, may make additional Company Floor Contributions.
	 
	5.3	 	Mode of Payment of Company Contributions
	 
	 	 	Company contributions under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall be made in cash.
	 
	5.4	 	Vesting of Company Contributions and Prior Plan Account
	 
	 	 	The Vested Share of each Member’s and Deferred Member’s Company Matching Account, Company
Floor Account and Prior Plan Account shall be determined in accordance with Article 6.
	 
	5.5	 	Forfeitures

	 	(a)	 	In the event of Termination of Employment of a Member, the portion of the
Member’s Account that is not vested in accordance with Article 6 shall be forfeited.
However, if he is reemployed by the Company or an Associated Company prior to incurring
a Break in Service, the provisions of Section 11.7 shall apply.
	 
	 	(b)	 	As soon as practicable after an event giving rise to a forfeiture shall have
occurred, the amount of any such forfeiture shall be applied to reduce future Company
contributions under the Plan.

28

 

	 	(c)	 	In the event of the termination of the Plan or complete discontinuance of
Company contributions hereunder, any forfeitures not previously applied in accordance
with the foregoing provisions of this Section shall be credited proportionately to the
Accounts of all Members as provided in Section 14.2(b).

	5.6	 	Maximum Annual Additions.

	 	(a)	 	The annual addition to a Member’s Accounts for any Plan Year, which shall be
considered the “limitation year” for purposes of Section 415 of the Code, when added to
the Member’s annual addition for that Plan Year under any other qualified defined
contribution plan of the Company or any Associated Company, shall not exceed an amount
which is equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of his Statutory Compensation for that Plan
Year, or (ii) $40,000, as adjusted in accordance with Section 415(d) of the Code.
	 
	 	(b)	 	For purposes of this Section, the “annual addition” to a Member’s Accounts
under this Plan or any other qualified defined contribution plan (including a deemed
qualified defined contribution plan under a qualified defined benefit plan) maintained
by the Company or an Associated Company shall be determined in accordance with (i) and
(ii) below.

	 	(i)	 	The annual addition shall include all of the following amounts
that have been allocated to the Member’s Accounts under this Plan or any other
qualified defined contribution plan (including a deemed qualified defined
contribution plan under a qualified defined benefit plan) maintained by the
Company or an Associated Company:

	 	(A)	 	the total Company contributions made on the
Member’s behalf by the Company and all Associated Companies, including
any Company Matching Contributions distributed or forfeited under the
provisions of Section 4.1 or 4.6;
	 
	 	(B)	 	all Before-Tax Savings and After-Tax Savings,
including Before-Tax Savings distributed as excess contributions under
Section 4.1(d) and After-Tax Savings distributed as excess aggregate
contributions under the provisions of Section 4.6;
	 
	 	(C)	 	forfeitures, if applicable; and
	 
	 	(D)	 	solely for purposes of the dollar limit under
clause (ii) of paragraph (a) above, amounts described in Sections
415(1)(1) and 419A(d)(2) of the Code allocated to the Member.

	 	(ii)	 	The annual addition shall not include:

	 	(A)	 	Rollover Contributions;
	 
	 	(B)	 	loan repayments made under Article 10;
	 
	 	(C)	 	amounts required to be repaid under Section
11.7 as a condition of the restoration of a Member’s forfeited Company
Contribution Account balance;

29

 

	 	(D)	 	Before Tax Savings distributed as excess
deferrals under Section 4.1(c); and
	 
	 	(E)	 	Catch-Up Contributions.

	 	(c)	 	To the extent that the annual additions to a Member’s Accounts exceed the
limitation set forth in Section 415(c)(2) of the Code, corrections shall be made in a
manner consistent with the provisions of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution
System as set forth in Revenue Procedure 2008-50 or any subsequent guidance. In the
event that a Member of the Plan is a participant in any other defined contribution plan
(whether or not terminated), maintained by the Company or any Associated Company, the
total amount of annual additions to such Member’s accounts under all such defined
contribution plans shall not exceed the limitations set forth in this Section 5.6. The
Benefits Administration Committee, under uniform rules equally applicable to similarly
situated Members, shall determine how to apply the provisions of this Section in order
to satisfy the limitation. In making its decision, the Benefits Administration
Committee shall take into account the applicable provisions of the other qualified
defined contribution plans.

	5.7	 	Contributions for a Period in Uniformed Services

	 	(a)	 	Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, contributions,
benefits, and service credit with respect to qualified uniformed service duty will be
provided in accordance with Section 414(u) of the Code. A Member who is reemployed and
is credited with Service for the purpose of vesting because of a period of service in
the uniformed services of the United States may elect to contribute to the Plan the
Before-Tax Savings (including Catch-Up Contributions) and/or After-Tax Savings that
could have been contributed to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan
had he remained continuously employed by the Company throughout such period of absence
(“make-up contributions”). For purposes of determining the amount of make-up
contributions a Member may make, his Salary for the period of absence shall be deemed
to be the rate of Salary he would have received had he remained employed as an Employee
for that period or, if such rate is not reasonably certain, on the basis of the
Member’s Salary during the 12-month period immediately preceding such period of absence
(or if shorter, the period of employment immediately preceding such period). Any
Before-Tax Savings, Catch-Up Contributions, and/or After-Tax Savings so determined
shall be limited as provided in Sections 4.1(c), 4.1(d) and 4.6 with respect to the
Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate rather than the Plan Year in
which payment is made. The make-up contributions may be made over a period not to
exceed three times the period of military leave or five years, if less, but in no event
later than the Member’s Termination of Employment (unless he is subsequently rehired).
The make-up period shall start on the later of (i) the Member’s date of
reemployment, or (ii) the date the Benefits Administration Committee notifies
the Employee of his rights under this Section. Earnings (or losses) on make-up
contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the make-up contribution is
made.
	 
	 	(b)	 	With respect to a Member who makes the election described in paragraph (a)
above, the Company shall make Company Matching Contributions on the make-up
contributions in the amount described in Section 5.1, as in effect for the Plan Year to
which such make-up contributions relate. Company Matching Contributions under this
paragraph shall be made to the Plan at the same time as Company Matching Contributions
are required to be made for Before-Tax Savings and/or After-Tax Savings made during the
same period as the make-up contributions are actually made. Earnings (or losses) on
Company Matching

30

 

	 	 	 	Contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the contributions are made.
Any limitations on Company Matching Contributions described in Section 4.6 shall be
applied with respect to the Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate
rather than the Plan Year or Years in which payment is made.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The Company shall make Company Floor Contributions in the amount described in
Section 5.2, as in effect for the Plan Year to which such Company Floor Contributions
relate. For purposes of determining the amount of such Company Floor Contributions,
his Salary for the period of absence shall be deemed to be the rate of Salary he would
have received had he remained employed as an Employee for that period or, if such rate
is not reasonably certain, on the basis of the Member’s Salary during the 12-month
period immediately preceding such period of absence (or if shorter, the period of
employment immediately preceding such period). Company Floor Contributions under this
paragraph shall be made as soon as practicable after the Member’s reemployment and
shall be deemed to have been made to the Plan at the same time as such contributions
would have been made but for the Member’s absence. Earnings (or losses) on Company
Floor Contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the Company Floor
Contributions are made.
	 
	 	(d)	 	All contributions under this Section, other than make-up Catch-Up
Contributions, are considered “annual additions,” as defined in Section 415(c)(2) of
the Code, and shall be limited in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.6 with
respect to the Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate rather than the
Plan Year in which payment is made.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, the maximum amount of
make-up contributions made by or on behalf of a Member shall be reduced by the actual
amount of Company Floor Contributions, Before-Tax Savings (including Catch-Up
Contributions), After-Tax Savings, and Company Matching Contributions, as applicable,
made by or on behalf of the Member during his period of service in the uniformed
services as a result of differential wage payments (as defined in Section 3401(h) of
the Code) that were made to the Member or for any other reason.

	5.8	 	Return of Contributions

	 	(a)	 	If all or part of the Company’s deductions for contributions to the Plan are
disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the portion of the contributions to which
that disallowance applies shall be returned to the Company without interest but reduced
by any investment loss attributable to those contributions, provided that the
contribution is returned within one year after the disallowance of deduction. For this
purpose, all contributions made by the Company are expressly declared to be conditioned
upon their deductibility under Section 404 of the Code.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The Company may recover, without interest, the amount of its contributions to
the Plan made on account of a mistake of fact, reduced by any investment loss
attributable to those contributions, if recovery is made within one year after the date
of those contributions.
	 
	 	(c)	 	In the event that Before-Tax Savings made under Section 4.1(a) are returned to
the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the elections to reduce
Salary that were made by Members on whose behalf those contributions were made shall be
void retroactively to the beginning of the period for which those contributions were
made. The Before-Tax Savings so returned shall be distributed in cash to those Members

31

 

	 	 	 	for whom those contributions were made, provided, however, that if the contributions
are returned under the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the amount of Before-Tax
Savings to be distributed to Members shall be adjusted to reflect any investment
gains or losses attributable to those contributions.

	5.9	 	Contributions Not Contingent Upon Profits
	 
	 	 	The Company may make contributions to the Plan without regard to the existence or the amount
of current and accumulated Company earnings and profits. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
however, this Plan is designed to qualify as a “profit-sharing plan” for all purposes of the
Code.

19, 1995 if any one of the following events occurs during his employment by the Company
or an Associated Company:

to Company Matching Contribution made for periods on and after December 19, 1995.

or applicable law.

ARTICLE 7

INVESTMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS

	7.1	 	Investment Funds

	 	(a)	 	Contributions to the Plan shall be invested by the Trustee in one or more
Investment Funds as authorized by the PFTIC. Such Investment Funds shall include:

	 	(i)	 	the Exelis Stock Fund;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	such Target Retirement Funds as the PFTIC shall select; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	for such period after the Effective Date as shall be
determined by the PFTIC, the Xylem Stock Fund and the ITT Stock Fund.

	 	 	 	Such Investment Funds may also include equity funds, international equity funds,
fixed income funds, money market funds, and other funds as the PFTIC elects to
offer.
	 
	 	(b)	 	In addition to the Investment Funds selected by the PFTIC, a Member may
establish a self-directed brokerage account (“SDA”), subject to the following terms and
conditions:

	 	(i)	 	Common stock of the Company is not a permitted investment in
the SDA.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Account fees associated with a Member’s SDA, as well as
commissions, special handling fees, and any other transaction charges
associated with transactions in the Member’s SDA will be charged to the
Member’s SDA.

	 	(c)	 	In any Investment Fund, the Trustee temporarily may hold cash or make
short-term investments in obligations of the United States Government, commercial
paper, an interim investment fund for tax-qualified employee benefit plans established
by the Trustee, unless otherwise provided in the applicable trust agreement or by
applicable law, or other investments of a short-term nature. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Trustee in its discretion may hold such amounts in cash, consistent with
its obligations as Trustee, as it deems advisable in accordance with the provisions of
the trust agreement.
	 
	 	(d)	 	For the purpose of determining the value of Exelis Stock, ITT Stock, or Xylem
Stock hereunder, in the event such stock is traded on a national securities exchange,
such stock shall be valued as of the closing quoted selling price of such stock on the
New York Stock Exchange composite tape on the business day such stock is delivered to
the Trustee. In the event such Exelis Stock, ITT Stock, or Xylem Stock is not traded
on a national securities exchange, such shares shall be valued in good faith by an
independent appraiser selected by the Trustee and meeting requirements similar to those
in the regulations prescribed under Section l70(a)(1) of the Code.
	 
	 	(e)	 	The Plan is intended to constitute a plan described in Section 404(c) of ERISA.
Consequently, each Member is solely responsible for the selection of his investment
options. The Trustees, the Benefits Administration Committee, the Company, the PFTIC,
and the officers, supervisors, and other employees of the Company are not empowered to
advise a Member as to the manner in which his Accounts shall be invested. The fact
that an Investment Fund is available to Members for investment under the Plan shall not
be construed as a recommendation for investment in the Investment Fund.

35

 

	 	(f)	 	The Trustee, or such other custodian as the PFTIC may designate, shall maintain
the Exelis Fund. It is specifically contemplated that the Exelis Stock Fund will
operate as an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) that is designed to invest
primarily in Exelis Stock, within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code.
Consistent with the Exelis Stock Fund’s status as an ESOP, the Trustee may keep such
amounts of cash, securities or other property as it, in its sole discretion, shall deem
necessary or advisable as part of the Trust Fund, all within the limitations specified
in the trust agreement.
	 
	 	(g)	 	Dividends, interest, and other distributions received on the assets held by the
Trustee in respect to the Investment Funds shall be reinvested in the respective
Investment Fund, provided, however, with respect to the Exelis Stock Fund, dividends,
interest, and other distributions received on the assets held by the Trustee in respect
to the Exelis Stock Fund shall be reinvested in the Exelis Stock Fund, except as
otherwise may be provided in Section 8.7 with respect to dividends on Exelis Stock.

	7.2	 	Investment of Contributions
	 
	 	 	Contributions under the Plan shall be invested by the Trustee as follows:

	 	(a)	 	Subject to the provisions of (b), (c), (d) and (e) below, a Member shall make
one investment election, in multiples of 1%, covering his Member Savings, Company
Matching Contributions and Company Floor Contributions made to his Accounts, to have
such amounts invested in any one or more of the Investment Funds. If no investment
election is made, such amounts shall be invested in the Target Retirement Fund that is
appropriate based on the Member’s year of birth (or such other Investment Fund as may
be designated by the PFTIC), unless and until the Member elects to have all or part of
his contributions invested in or transferred to other funds pursuant to Sections 7.3
and 7.4.
	 
	 	(b)	 	A Member cannot elect to direct the investment of any amounts into the ITT
Stock Fund or the Xylem Stock Fund prospectively. Amounts invested in the ITT Stock
Fund or the Xylem Stock Fund as a result of the restructuring of ITT coincident with
the establishment of the Plan are the only amounts that may be invested in such funds.
A Member may elect at any time to direct the amounts invested in the ITT Stock Fund or
the Xylem Stock Fund into any other Investment Fund in the Plan, subject to the
provisions of this Section 7.2 and Section 7.4.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Except as provided in Section 7.4(d), no more than 20% of a Member’s Accounts
may be invested in the Exelis Stock Fund. A Member’s investment election with respect
to future contributions cannot direct more than 20% to be invested in the Exelis Stock
Fund.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Contributions may not be initially invested in a Member’s SDA. Any amounts to
be invested in a Member’s SDA must be transferred into the SDA pursuant to Section 7.4.
	 
	 	(e)	 	A Member making a Rollover Contribution pursuant to Section 4.4 or a transfer
contribution pursuant to Section 4.8 may make a separate initial investment election
under this Section 7.2. Such Rollover Contribution or transfer contribution shall be
invested, in multiples of 1%, in any one or more of the Investment Funds as elected by
the Member. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Rollover Contributions or transfer
contributions may not be initially invested in the Exelis Stock Fund, the ITT Stock
Fund, Xylem Stock Fund, or a Member’s SDA. A Member may subsequently transfer or
reallocate his Rollover Contributions or transfer contributions to the Exelis Stock
Fund or

36

 

	 	 	 	the Member’s SDA pursuant to Section 7.4. If a Member has not made an election with
respect to the initial investment of his Rollover Contributions or transfer
contributions, such Rollover Contributions or transfer contributions shall be
invested in the Target Retirement Fund that is appropriate based on the Member’s
year of birth (or such other Investment Fund as may be designated by the PFTIC).
	 
	 	(f)	 	A Member may enroll in a managed account program under which investment
professionals will monitor the Member’s Plan Accounts and manage all investment
elections and transactions. The terms of the program shall supersede any contrary
provisions of this Plan with respect to Members enrolled therein and any fees charged
to the Member will be determined under the terms of the program.
	 
	 	(g)	 	A Member’s Prior ESOP Account shall be invested entirely in the Exelis Stock
Fund, ITT Stock Fund, and Xylem Stock Fund, as applicable, except when a Member elects
to have all or part of his Prior ESOP Account transferred to or invested in another
Investment Fund pursuant to this Article 7.

	7.3	 	Changes in Investment Election for Future Contributions
	 
	 	 	On any business day, by making an election in a form or manner approved by the Benefits
Administration Committee for such purpose, a Member may change his investment election
within the limitations set forth in Section 7.2 with respect to future Savings and Company
Matching and Floor Contributions to be made for any payroll deposited with the Trustee on or
after the effective date of such notice. The effective date of such election shall be the
business day following the date of the election. A Member shall be permitted to make only
one investment election, covering his Member Savings, Company Floor Contributions and
Company Matching Contributions. A separate election may be made for future Rollover
Contributions.
	 
	7.4	 	Redistribution of Investments
	 
	 	 	Members and Deferred Members may redistribute their investments as follows:

	 	(a)	 	On any business day, by making an advance election in a form or manner approved
by the Benefits Administration Committee for such purpose, a Member or Deferred Member
may elect to reallocate (or transfer, as the case may be) on any Valuation Date all or
part, in multiples of 1%, all of his Accounts among the Investment Funds, provided
however no more than 20% of a Member’s Accounts may be invested in the SDA or the
Exelis Stock Fund after such reallocation or transfer and no amounts may be reallocated
or transferred into the Xylem Stock Fund or the ITT Stock Fund, except as provided
below. The reallocation or transfer shall be effective as soon as administratively
practicable after the Valuation Date.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The PFTIC may establish such rules and restrictions regarding the
redistribution of investments as it deems appropriate, including restrictions on the
maximum number of transfers in a calendar month.
	 
	 	 	 	Unless otherwise provided by the PFTIC, a Member or Deferred Member may perform a
maximum of four fund reallocations or transfers in any calendar month. For purposes
of this Section, a reallocation or a transfer shall be defined as a single
reallocation or a single transfer, or as a series of reallocations and/or transfers
taking place on a single business day. Transfers within the SDA shall not be taken
into account for purposes of the limitation on reallocations or transfers described
above.

37

 

	 	(c)	 	Any amounts invested in a fund of guaranteed investment contracts or an
investment fund covered by a prospectus or other document of similar import or effect
shall be subject to any and all terms of such contracts, prospectus or other documents
of similar import or effect, including any limitations therein placed on the exercise
of any rights otherwise granted to a Member or Deferred Member under any other
provisions of this Plan with respect to such amounts.
	 
	 	(d)	 	No more than 20% of a Member’s Accounts may be invested in the Exelis Stock
Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member with more than 20% of his Accounts
invested in the ITT Stock Fund under the ISP immediately prior to October 31, 2011 (or
such other date as may be designated by the PFTIC) may elect to direct that amounts
invested in the Xylem Stock Fund and/or the ITT Stock Fund be transferred to the Exelis
Stock Fund without regard to the 20% limit, provided, however, that such Member may not
make any further investments in, or transfers into, the Exelis Stock Fund until the 20%
limitation described in the preceding sentence has been complied with.

	7.5	 	Valuation Date
	 
	 	 	The Valuation Date applicable with respect to reallocations made in accordance with Section
7.4 shall be the business day such election is received and processed by the Savings Plan
Administrator or its designee and shall not be later than the next business day following
the day on which the Member’s completed request is received and processed by the Savings
Plan Administrator or its designee.
	 
	7.6	 	Voting of Exelis Stock
	 
	 	 	Each Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary (in the event of the death of the Member or
Deferred Member) is, for the purposes of this Section 7.6, hereby designated a named
fiduciary within the meaning of Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA with respect to the shares of
Exelis Stock allocated to his Accounts, determined as herein described. Each Member and
Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member)
may direct the Trustee as to the manner in which the Exelis Stock allocated to his Accounts,
determined as herein described, is to be voted. An individual’s proportionate share of the
Exelis Stock Fund as to which he holds fiduciary status for voting purposes shall be
determined at the time such voting rights are exercisable by multiplying the number of
shares credited at that time to such portion by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the value (as of the Valuation Date designated by the Benefits Administration Committee for this
purpose) of that part of the Member’s Accounts invested in the Exelis Stock Fund with
respect to which the Member provides instructions to the Trustee and the denominator of
which is the aggregate value of all amounts allocated to that part of all Member Accounts
which is invested in the Exelis Stock Fund for which instructions are provided to the
Trustee. Before each annual or special meeting of shareholders of Exelis, each Member,
Deferred Member, and Beneficiary shall be furnished with information regarding how to obtain
a copy of the proxy solicitation material for such meeting and the form requesting
instructions to the Trustee on how to vote the Exelis Stock allocated to such Member’s,
Deferred Member’s and Beneficiary’s Accounts. Upon receipt of such instructions, the
Trustee shall vote such shares as instructed. In lieu of voting fractional shares as
instructed by Members, Deferred Members, or Beneficiaries, the Trustee may vote the combined
fractional shares of Exelis Stock to the extent possible to reflect the directions of
Members, Deferred Members, or Beneficiaries with allocated fractional shares of each class
of stock. The Trustee shall vote shares of Exelis Stock allocated to Accounts under the
Plan but for which the Trustee received no valid voting instructions in the same manner and
in the same proportion as the shares of Exelis Stock in the

38

 

	 	 	Accounts in the respective funds
with respect to which the Trustee received valid voting
instructions are voted. Instructions to the Trustee shall be in such form and pursuant to
such regulations as the Benefits Administration Committee may prescribe.
	 
	 	 	Any instructions received by the Trustee from Members, Deferred Members, and Beneficiaries
regarding the voting of Exelis Stock shall be confidential and shall not be divulged by the
Trustee to the Company, or to any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, it
being the intent of this provision of this Section 7.6 to ensure that the Company (and its
directors, officers, employees and agents) cannot determine the voting instructions given by
any Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary.
	 
	 	 	In the event of a tender or exchange offer, the provisions of Article 15 shall control,
rather than this Section.
	 
	7.7	 	Blackout Periods
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, when required for administrative
reasons, the Benefits Administration Committee may temporarily suspend, limit, or restrict
the rights of Members, Deferred Members, Beneficiaries or alternate payees (as applicable)
to direct or diversify the investment of some or all of their Accounts, to obtain loans from
the Plan, and to obtain distributions (including in-service withdrawals) from the Plan. The
number and length of such suspensions and the imposition of such limitations or restrictions
shall be limited to the greatest extent practicable. Any suspension, limitation or
restriction of rights under this Section shall comply with all applicable law and any
guidance issued thereunder and may be imposed only if the Benefits Administration Committee
timely provides notice of the suspension, limitation or restriction of such rights, as
required by Section 101 of ERISA, any guidance issued thereunder, and any other applicable
law.

ALLOCATION OF ASSETS

	8.1	 	Before-Tax Savings, After-Tax Savings and Rollover Contributions
	 
	 	 	Before-Tax Savings, After-Tax Savings and Rollover Contributions made on behalf of or by a
Member shall be allocated to the Before-Tax Account, After-Tax Account or Rollover Account
of such Member, as appropriate, as soon as practicable after such contributions are
transferred to the Trust Fund.
	 
	8.2	 	Company Matching Contributions
	 
	 	 	Company Matching Contributions made for a Member shall be allocated to the Company Matching
Account of such Member, as soon as practicable after such contributions are made to the
Trust Fund.
	 
	8.3	 	Company Floor Contributions
	 
	 	 	Company Floor Contributions made for a Member shall be allocated to the Company Floor
Account of such Member, as soon as practicable after such contributions are made to the
Trust Fund.
	 
	8.4	 	Credits to Members’ Accounts
	 
	 	 	At the end of each business day in which the Plan is in effect and operation, the amount of
each Member’s credit in each of the Investment Funds shall be expressed and credited in
dollars of contributions by the Member and Company allocated to a Member’s Accounts for such
day. For purposes of this Article 8, “business day” means each day on which the New York
Stock Exchange or any successor to its business is open for trading or such other day(s) as
may be designated by the PFTIC.
	 
	8.5	 	Valuation of Assets
	 
	 	 	At the end of each business day, the Trustee shall determine the total fair market value of
all assets then held by it in each Investment Fund. The Benefits Administration Committee
reserves the right to change from time to time the procedures used in valuing the Accounts
or crediting (or debiting) the Accounts if it determines, after due deliberation and upon
the advice of counsel and/or the current recordkeeper, that such an action is justified in
that it results in a more accurate reflection of the fair market value of assets. In the
event of a conflict between the provisions of this Article and such new administrative
procedures, those new administrative procedures shall prevail.
	 
	8.6	 	Allocation of Assets
	 
	 	 	At the end of each business day when the value of all assets in each Investment Fund has
been determined pursuant to Section 8.5, the Trustee shall determine the gain or loss in the
value of such assets in each of the Investment Funds. Such gain or loss shall be allocated
pro rata by Investment Fund to the balances credited to the Accounts of all Members and
Deferred Members as of such business day.

40

 

	8.7	 	Dividends Paid with respect to Stock in the ESOP
	 
	 	 	Dividends with respect to ITT Stock and Xylem Stock shall be reinvested in the ITT Stock
Fund and Xylem Stock Fund, respectively. Dividends with respect to Exelis Stock shall be
subject to the following provisions:

	 	(a)	 	Dividend Election
	 
	 	 	 	A Member or Deferred Member may elect, with respect to a dividend paid on Exelis
Stock in the ESOP as of the record date of such dividend, to have the dividend
either distributed in cash to the Member or Deferred Member or reinvested in shares
of Exelis Stock, provided however that if the amount of dividends to be paid to the
Member or Deferred Member is ten dollars or less, said dividends shall be
automatically reinvested in shares of Exelis Stock. The Savings Plan Administrator
shall prescribe rules regarding the timing and manner of a dividend election.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Default Election
	 
	 	 	 	In the absence of an affirmative dividend election, the Member or Deferred Member
shall be deemed to have elected to have the dividend reinvested in Exelis Stock.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Effect and Duration of Election
	 
	 	 	 	An election made in accordance with (a) or (b) above shall remain in effect until
changed by the Member or Deferred Member in accordance with the rules established by
the Savings Plan Administrator. The election shall apply to all dividends with a
record date on or after the election date.
	 
	 	 	 	A Member or Deferred Member may change his dividend election at any time in the
manner prescribed by the Savings Plan Administrator.
	 
	 	 	 	Notwithstanding any provision of this Section to the contrary, in the event that two
or more dividend checks payable to a Member remain uncashed at one time, that action
shall be deemed as an election by the Member to have his dividends reinvested in
Exelis Stock in the Plan and the Savings Plan Administrator shall reinvest any
further dividends payable to the Member until the Member cashes the outstanding
checks and makes another affirmative election to receive his dividends in cash.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Cash Payment
	 
	 	 	 	Dividends elected to be paid in cash shall be distributed to the Member or Deferred
Member as soon as administratively practicable after the dividend is received by the
Trustee in the Trust Fund. The amount of cash dividends distributed shall be
reduced by the amount of any losses attributable to such dividends while held in the
Trust Fund. No earnings attributable to such dividends shall be distributed.

ARTICLE 9

WITHDRAWALS PRIOR TO TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

	9.1	 	General Conditions for Withdrawals
	 
	 	 	At any time before Termination of Employment, a Member may request a withdrawal from his
Accounts by submitting to the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee an election in a
form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee, and shall conform to the
standards set by the Benefits Administration Committee, if any, regarding minimum and
maximum amounts of withdrawals. Any such withdrawal shall be in accordance with the
conditions of Section 9.2 or Section 9.3. For purposes of this Article 9, a Member’s
Accounts shall be valued as of the applicable Withdrawal Valuation Date. Amounts to be
distributed to Members will not participate in the investment experience of the Plan after
the Withdrawal Valuation Date. Such amounts generally will be paid as soon as
administratively possible following the Withdrawal Valuation Date. Except where
specifically provided otherwise, Savings by the Member under the Plan may be continued
without interruption.
	 
	9.2	 	Withdrawals from Certain Accounts
	 
	 	 	Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, a Member (but not a Deferred Member) can withdraw
amounts in any whole dollar amount or percentage less than or equal to the described value
of the following Accounts; provided, however, that the full withdrawable amount from each
source from (a) through (h) below must be withdrawn before any amount can be withdrawn from
the source next following on the list of sources from (a) through (h) below:

	 	(a)	 	all or a portion of his After-Tax Account;
	 
	 	(b)	 	all or a portion of his Prior Plan Account;
	 
	 	(c)	 	all or a portion of his Rollover Account;
	 
	 	(d)	 	all or a portion of his Prior ESOP Account;
	 
	 	(e)	 	Company Floor Contributions and a Member’s Vested Share of Company Matching
Contributions, including any earnings related to such contributions, that were made by
the Company prior to October 1, 1996; and
	 
	 	(f)	 	Company Floor Contributions and a Member’s Vested Share of Company Matching
Contributions that were made by the Company on and after October 1, 1996, including any
earnings related to such contributions, provided such contributions have been in the
Plan more than 24 months prior to the proposed Withdrawal Valuation Date.

	 	 	Withdrawals will be deemed to be deducted from each of the Investment Funds described in
Article 7 on a pro rata basis, provided, however, that no amount shall be deemed to be
deducted from the Exelis Stock Fund until all amounts have been withdrawn from all of the
other Investment Funds, and provided further that amounts invested in a Member’s SDA are not
available as a source of any withdrawals described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
however, a Member may reallocate his balance in the SDA to the other Investment Funds in the
Plan as provided in Article 7 and such Investment Funds (other than the Exelis Stock Fund)
may then be available as a source for withdrawals in accordance with the provisions of this
Article 9.

42

 

	9.3	 	Withdrawal from Before-Tax Account

	 	(a)	 	Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.1 and 9.8, a Member who has attained
age 591/2 as of a Withdrawal Valuation Date may withdraw all or any portion of his
Before-Tax Account.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1 and 9.8, a Member who has not attained
age 591/2 as of a Withdrawal Valuation Date and who has withdrawn all amounts available
under Section 9.2 may withdraw all or a portion of his Before-Tax Account (except for
the portion that represents investment earnings credited to his Before-Tax Account
provided he has an immediate and heavy financial need and the withdrawal is necessary
to satisfy such need, as provided below. If a Member has not withdrawn all amounts
available under Section 9.2, he must take a separate withdrawal of the amounts
available under Section 9.2 and that withdrawal shall not be treated as a withdrawal
due to hardship.

	 	(i)	 	As a condition for receiving a withdrawal pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 9.3(b), there must exist with respect to the Member
an immediate and heavy financial need to draw upon his Accounts. For purposes
of this subparagraph (b), the Benefits Administration Committee shall presume
the existence of an immediate and heavy financial need if the requested
withdrawal is on account of any of the following:

	 	(A)	 	expenses for (or necessary to obtain) medical
care that would be deductible under Section 213(d) of the Code
(determined without regard to whether the expenses exceed 7.5 percent
of adjusted gross income);
	 
	 	(B)	 	costs directly related to the purchase of a
principal residence of the Member (excluding mortgage payments);
	 
	 	(C)	 	payment of tuition and related educational
fees, and room and board expenses, for the next 12 months of
post-secondary education of the Member, his spouse, children or
dependents (as defined in Section 152 of the Code and determined
without regard to Sections 152(b)(1), (b)(2) and (d)(1)(B) of the
Code);
	 
	 	(D)	 	payment of amounts necessary to prevent
eviction of the Member from his principal residence or to avoid
foreclosure on the mortgage of his principal residence;
	 
	 	(E)	 	payments for burial or funeral expenses for the
Member’s deceased parent, spouse, children or dependents (as defined in
Section 152 of the Code and without regard to Section 152(d)(1)(B) of
the Code);
	 
	 	(F)	 	expenses for the repair of damages to the
Member’s principal residence that would qualify for the casualty
deduction under Section 165 of the Code (determined without regard to
whether the loss exceeds 10 percent of the Member’s adjusted gross
income); or
	 
	 	(G)	 	the inability of the Member to meet such other
expenses, debts, or other obligations recognized by the Internal
Revenue Service as giving rise to immediate and heavy financial need
for purposes of Section 401(k) of the Code.

43

 

	 	 	 	The amount of the withdrawal may not be in excess of the amount of the
financial need of the Member, including an additional amount equal to 20
percent of the amount otherwise needed to satisfy such financial need to pay
any federal, state, or local taxes and any amounts necessary to pay any
penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the hardship distribution.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	As a condition for receiving a withdrawal pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 9.3(b), the Member must demonstrate that the
requested withdrawal is necessary to satisfy the financial need described in
(i) above. For purposes of this subparagraph, the Benefits Administration
Committee shall presume that the withdrawal is necessary to satisfy the
immediate and heavy financial need if the following requirements are met:

	 	(A)	 	The Member has obtained all distributions
(other than hardship distributions) available under all other
retirement plans maintained by the Company and all Associated
Companies, including this Plan and including distribution of all cash
dividends currently available to the Member under Section 8.7 of the
Plan and all non-taxable loans available under all retirement plans
maintained by the Company and all Associated Companies, including this
Plan, provided that the loan repayments do not result in an additional
financial hardship for the Member.
	 
	 	(B)	 	The Member agrees to cease all Before-Tax
Savings and After-Tax Savings under this Plan and under any other plans
of the Company or of any Associated Company for a period of not less
than six months following the hardship withdrawal.

	 	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee or its designee shall make determinations of
financial hardship in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner, with reference to all
the relevant facts and circumstances and in accordance with applicable tax law under
Section 40l(k) of the Code.

	9.4	 	Form of Payment
	 
	 	 	Withdrawal payments shall be made in the form of cash, except that the Member may request to
receive the portion of his Accounts invested in the Exelis Stock Fund to be paid in shares
of Exelis Stock, with any fractional shares being paid in cash.
	 
	9.5	 	Death after Withdrawal Election
	 
	 	 	If a Member elects a withdrawal and dies after the issuance of the check(s) or shares of
Exelis Stock comprising such withdrawal but prior to negotiation of such check(s) comprising
all or a portion of such distribution, then any unpaid cash            portion of the
withdrawal as represented by the non-negotiated check(s) shall be paid to his estate. If
more than one check comprises such withdrawal and the Member negotiates the first check but
dies prior to the issuance of any subsequent check, then any subsequent check shall be paid
to his estate. If a Member elects a withdrawal and dies prior to the issuance of any
check(s) or shares of Exelis Stock comprising such withdrawal, then the withdrawal election
shall be voided.

44

 

	9.6	 	Direct Rollover
	 
	 	 	Certain withdrawals or portions thereof paid pursuant to this Article 9 may be “eligible
rollover distributions” as defined and discussed in Section 11.8 and are governed with
respect thereto by such Section.
	 
	9.7	 	Repayment of Withdrawal from Plan
	 
	 	 	If a Member made a withdrawal prior to September 30, 1996, as a result of which he forfeited
all or a portion of the value of his “Company Contribution Account” under the Plan at such
time, he shall be permitted to repay in full the amounts previously withdrawn from his
“Company Contribution Account” by providing to the Savings Plan Administrator or its
designee prior written notice on a form approved by the Benefits Administration Committee
for such purpose. Such payment may be made at any time provided the Member is then eligible
for the Plan and further provided the Member has not incurred a Break in Service. Such
repayment amounts shall be deposited into the Member’s Company Matching Accounts and
invested in accordance with the Member’s investment election under Section 7.2.
	 
	9.8	 	Penalty for Withdrawal of Certain Amounts
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Member who withdraws amounts from his
Company Floor Account, his ESOP Account or his Vested Share of his Company Matching Account
pursuant to Section 9.2 shall have Company Matching Contributions made pursuant to Section
5.1 suspended for a period of three months following the applicable Withdrawal Valuation
Date. However, during this period Company Floor Contributions will continue to be made to
the Member’s Account and he may continue to make Before-Tax Savings, After-Tax Savings and
Rollover Contributions.
	 
	9.9	 	Determination of Vested Share of Company Matching Account
	 
	 	 	If a Member is not fully vested in his Company Matching Account at the time he makes a
withdrawal from that Account under this Article, as of any subsequent date, such Member’s
Vested Share of his Company matching Account shall be determined in accordance with the
following formula:

X = P  ́ (AB + D) —  D

	 	 	where X is the value of the Member’s Vested Share of such Account, P is the nonforfeitable
percentage at the relevant time, AB is the value of his Company Matching Account at the
relevant time, and D is the amount of the prior distribution from such Account.

ARTICLE 10

LOANS

	10.1	 	General Conditions for Loans
	 
	 	 	Subject to the restrictions in this Article 10, at any time before Termination of
Employment, a Member may file an application in a form or manner approved by the Benefits
Administration Committee requesting a loan from his Accounts. By filing the loan forms, the
Member:

	 	(a)	 	specifies the amount and the term of the loan;
	 
	 	(b)	 	agrees to the annual percentage rate of interest;
	 
	 	(c)	 	agrees to the finance charge;
	 
	 	(d)	 	promises to repay the loan; and
	 
	 	(e)	 	authorizes the Company to make regular payroll deductions to repay the loan,
with the loan repayments computed based on the frequency of the Member’s payroll
payments.

	 	 	The Member shall certify in such application as to the existence and amount of any
outstanding loans (including any loans deemed distributed) from any qualified plans
maintained by the Company and all Associated Companies. The Benefits Administration
Committee may, in its sole discretion, deny a loan to a Member who is a director or
executive officer (or the equivalent thereof) of the Company or of an Associated Company
based on a reasonable concern regarding the legality of the loan under Section 13(k) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
	 
	 	 	If at the time a loan is to be issued to a Member a prior loan has been deemed distributed
to the Member and not repaid, a new loan may only be issued to a Member if the Member repays
the unpaid loan balance, including accrued interest to the date of repayment.
	 
	 	 	To the extent required by law and under such rules as the Benefits Administration Committee
shall adopt, loans shall also be made available on a reasonably equivalent basis to any
Beneficiary or former Employee who maintains an account balance under the Plan and who is
still a party-in-interest (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA).
	 
	10.2	 	Amounts Available for Loans
	 
	 	 	A Member may request a loan in any specified whole dollar amount which must be at least
$1,000 but which, when added to the outstanding balance of any other loans to the Member
from this Plan or any other qualified plan of the Company or any Associated Company,
including the amount of any unpaid deemed loan distribution and accrued interest thereon,
does not exceed the lesser of:

	 	(a)	 	50% of his Vested Share; or
	 
	 	(b)	 	$50,000, reduced by the excess of (i) the Member’s highest outstanding loan
balance(s) from this Plan or any other plan sponsored by the Company or any Associated
Company, if any, during the one-year period ending on the day before the day the loan
is made, over (ii) the outstanding balance of loans to the Member from such plans on
the date on which the loan is made.

46

 

	 	 	For purposes of determining amounts actually available for loans, a Member’s Vested Share
shall be determined based on the Loan Valuation Date at the time he files his loan request
with the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.
	 
	10.3	 	Account Ordering for Loans
	 
	 	 	For purposes of processing a loan, the amount of such loan will be deducted from the
Member’s Accounts in the order set by the Benefits Administration Committee under loan
rules.
	 
	 	 	A loan is deducted from a Member’s Accounts as of the Loan Valuation Date. Amounts so
deducted and distributed to a Member as a Plan loan will not participate in the investment
experience of the Plan except as such amounts are repaid to the Member’s Accounts. Loans
will be deemed to be deducted from each of the Investment Funds on a pro rata basis,
provided, however, that no amount shall be deemed to be deducted from the Exelis Stock Fund
until all amounts have been withdrawn from all of the other Investment Funds, and provided
further that amounts invested in a Member’s SDA are not available as a source of any loans
described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Member may reallocate his
balance in the SDA to the other Investment Funds and such Investment Funds may then be
available as a source for loans.
	 
	10.4	 	Interest Rate for Loans
	 
	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee shall establish and communicate to Members a
reasonable rate of interest for loans commensurate with the interest rates charged by
persons in the business of lending money for loans which would be made under similar
circumstances, as determined by the Benefits Administration Committee, which interest rate
shall remain in effect for the term of the loan, except that with respect to a Member who
enters the uniformed services of the United States, the Member may elect to have the
interest rate applicable to the unpaid loan balance during the period of leave reduced to
6%.
	 
	10.5	 	Term and Repayment of Loan

	 	(a)	 	The term of any loan shall be for a period of from 1 to 60 whole months, at the
election of the Member, provided that a Member who is using a loan to acquire his own
principal residence may elect to repay a loan over a period of whole months between 1
and 180. Except as provided in (b) or (c) below, payments of principal and interest
will be made by after-tax payroll deductions or in a manner agreed to by the Member and
the Benefits Administration Committee in substantially level amounts, but no less
frequently than quarterly, in an amount sufficient to amortize the loan over the
repayment period. A Member who is actively employed by the Company cannot elect to
cease payroll deductions for repayment of a loan. Except as set forth below with
respect to Members who enter the uniformed services of the United States, no extension
of the loan term shall be permitted after the loan is made. Repayment of the loan is
made to the Member’s Accounts from which the loan amount was deducted in the inverse
order to the Account Ordering for Loans described in Section 10.3. Repayments are
invested in the Member’s Accounts in accordance with his current investment election.
Loan repayments are not credited with investment experience under the Plan until the
first business day following the day on which such repayments are received by the Trust
Fund.
	 
	 	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member may repay a loan for the purpose of
acquiring his own principal residence over a period of up to 30 years provided that
such loan was

47

 

	 	 	 	transferred to the Plan from the Goulds Pumps, Inc. Retirement Savings and
Investment Plan.
	 
	 	(b)	 	If a Member with an outstanding loan takes a leave of absence to enter the
uniformed services of the United States, and such Member will receive military
differential wage payments (as defined in Section 3401(h) of the Code) in an amount
equal to or greater than his loan repayment, his after-tax payroll deduction loan
repayments shall continue during such leave of absence. If a Member with an
outstanding loan takes a leave of absence to enter the uniformed services of the United
States and such Member will not receive military differential wage payments sufficient
to cover his loan repayments, his after-tax payroll deduction loan repayments shall be
suspended during the period of leave unless the Member elects to make payments directly
by certified check or money order. If payments are suspended, upon the Member’s
reemployment from the uniformed services, the period of repayment shall be extended by
the number of months of the period of service in the uniformed services or, if greater,
the number of months that would remain if the original loan term were five years plus
the number of months in the period of absence; provided, however, if the Member incurs
a Termination of Employment and requests a distribution pursuant to Article 11, the
loan shall be canceled, and the outstanding loan balance shall be distributed pursuant
to Article 11. The Member shall resume payments in the same amount as before the leave
with the balance of the loan (including any interest that accrued during the period of
uniformed service) due upon the expiration of the repayment period. Alternatively, the
Member may elect to have the remaining balance (including any interest that accrued
during the period of uniformed service) reamortized in substantially level installments
over the extended term of the loan.
	 
	 	(c)	 	If a Member with an outstanding loan takes an authorized leave of absence without
pay or reduced pay that is less than the required loan payments, for reasons other than
to enter the uniformed services of the United States, loan payments may be suspended at
the request of the Member, for a period of up to 12 months or until the end of the term
of the loan, if earlier. Upon a Member’s reemployment from the leave of absence, the
Member shall resume payments either in the same amount as before the leave with the
full balance due upon the expiration of the repayment period or by reamortizing the
loan in substantially level installments over the remaining term of the loan.

	10.6	 	Frequency of Loan Requests
	 
	 	 	A Member may have no more than two loans outstanding at any time. Each loan shall be
evidenced by a promissory note payable to the Plan.
	 
	10.7	 	Prepayment of Loans
	 
	 	 	A Member may prepay the entire outstanding balance of a loan, with interest to date of
prepayment except as provided under Section 10.8, at any time. Partial prepayments are not
permitted.
	 
	10.8	 	Outstanding Loan Balance at Termination of Employment
	 
	 	 	Upon a Member’s Termination of Employment, the Deferred Member may continue to make periodic
repayments of his outstanding loans provided that his Vested Share plus his loan balance at
the time of his Termination of Employment is greater than $5,000, and provided further that
if

48

 

	 	 	the Deferred Member requests a distribution of his remaining Vested Share pursuant to
Article 11, the unpaid loan balance shall be treated as an offset distribution.
	 
	 	 	If a Deferred Member fails to pay the loan balance in full or make loan repayments in
accordance with Section 10.5, the Benefits Administration Committee may execute upon its
security interest in the Member’s Accounts under the Plan to satisfy the debt; provided,
however, the Plan shall not levy against amounts held in the Member’s Accounts until such
time as a distribution of such Accounts could otherwise be made under the Plan.
	 
	10.9	 	Loan Default
	 
	 	 	Under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, a Member’s failure to make
timely loan repayment, the Benefits Administration Committee may declare the Member’s loan
to be in default. If a Member’s loan is not repaid in accordance with the terms contained
in the promissory note and a default occurs, the Plan may execute upon its security interest
in the Member’s Accounts under the Plan to satisfy the debt; provided, however, the Plan
shall not levy against amounts held in the Member’s Accounts until such time as a
distribution of such Accounts could otherwise be made under the Plan.
	 
	10.10	 	Incorporation by Reference
	 
	 	 	Any additional rules or restrictions as may be necessary to implement and administer Plan
loans shall be in writing and communicated to Members. Such further documentation is hereby
incorporated into the Plan by reference, and, pursuant to Section 13.2, the Benefits
Administration Committee is hereby authorized to make such revisions to these rules, as it
deems necessary or appropriate on the advice of counsel.
	 
	10.11	 	Death after Loan Application
	 
	 	 	If a Member applies for a loan and dies after a check for the loan amount has been issued
but prior to negotiation of the check, then the loan shall be paid to his estate or voided,
at the option of the Benefits Administration Committee. If a Member applies for a loan and
dies before the check for the loan amount is issued, then the loan application shall be
voided.
	 
	10.12	 	Transfer of Loans
	 
	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee may designate that the Plan will accept the transfer
of a loan from another qualified retirement plan on behalf of a Member who becomes an
Employee as a result of an acquisition by the Company.

ARTICLE 11

DISTRIBUTIONS

	11.1	 	General

	 	(a)	 	Upon Termination of Employment, a Member may apply for distribution of the
value of his Vested Share. Alternatively, upon Termination of Employment, a Member
whose Vested Share exceeds $5,000 may elect to defer distribution of his Vested Share
until December 31 of the year in which he attains age 701/2. If a Member terminates
employment with no Vested Share, he shall be deemed to have received a full
distribution of his benefit at the time of his Termination of Employment. If a Member
whose Vested Share exceeds $5,000 does not apply for a distribution of his Vested Share
within 90 days of his Termination of Employment, he shall be deemed to be a Deferred
Member. A Deferred Member may elect a partial distribution of any portion of his
Vested Share in a lump sum amount at any time, and from time to time, after his
Termination of Employment, provided said Deferred Member is not receiving installment
payments pursuant to an election under Section 11.3. All distributions under this
Section 11.1(a) will be deemed to be deducted from each of the Deferred Member’s
Investment Funds on a pro rata basis, provided, however, that no amount shall be deemed
to be deducted from the Exelis Stock Fund until all amounts have been withdrawn from
all of the other Investment Funds, and provided further that amounts invested in an SDA
are not available as a source of any partial distributions described herein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Deferred Member may reallocate the balance in
his SDA to other Investment Funds in the Plan as provided in Article 7 and such
Investment Funds may then be available as a source for partial distributions under this
Section.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Upon the death of a Member or Deferred Member, the value of such Member’s or
Deferred Member’s Vested Share shall be distributed to his Beneficiary, subject to the
following:

	 	(i)	 	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not the
spouse of such Member or Deferred Member, the Member’s or Deferred Member’s
Vested Share shall be distributed to the Beneficiary in accordance with said
Beneficiary’s election under Section 11.3; provided the entire value of the
Member’s Vested Share is distributed no later than five years from the Member’s
or Deferred Member’s date of death. Such nonspouse Beneficiary may also elect
partial distributions of the Member’s benefit in lump sums from time to time
during this five-year period, provided that the entire value of the Member’s
Vested Share is distributed no later than five years from the Member’s or
Deferred Member’s date of death.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is his spouse
and the value of the Vested Share to be distributed to the spouse Beneficiary
exceeds $5,000, such spouse Beneficiary may elect to defer receipt of the
Member’s or Deferred Member’s Vested Share until the December 31 Valuation Date
of the year in which the Member or Deferred Member would have reached age 701/2.
If a spouse Beneficiary’s Vested Share exceeds $5,000 and the spouse
Beneficiary does not apply for a distribution of his Vested Share within 90
days of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death, such spouse Beneficiary will
be deemed to be a Deferred Member. Such spouse Beneficiary will receive
distribution of the Vested Share as of the date the Member or Deferred Member
would have

50

 

	 	 	 	attained age 65, provided such spouse Beneficiary files application for such
distribution. A spouse Beneficiary may, however, file application for
distribution of such Vested Share at any time prior to the December 31
Valuation Date of the year in which the Member or Deferred Member would have
reached age 701/2. In addition to the methods of distribution in Section
11.3, a spouse Beneficiary of a deceased Member or Deferred Member may elect
a partial distribution of any portion of his Vested Share in a lump-sum
amount at any time, and from time to time and subject to the provisions of
(a) above.

	 	(c)	 	Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, distributions shall
commence as follows:

	 	(i)	 	A Member or Deferred Member who is a “5-percent
owner” as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code must commence distribution of
his Vested Share no later than December 31 of the year in which he attains age
701/2.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	A Member or Deferred Member who is not a “5-percent owner” as
defined in Section 416(i) of the Code must commence distribution of his Vested
Share after his Termination of Employment by December 31 of the later of the
calendar year in which the Member attains age 701/2 or the calendar year in which
the Member’s Termination of Employment occurs.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	The Vested Share of a Member or a Deferred Member who has
attained age 701/2 shall be paid under the payment method described in Section
11.3(c)(ii) below.

	 	(d)	 	Notwithstanding the provisions of (a), (b), or (c), above, or Section 11.3
below, a Member or Deferred Member (or Beneficiary) may elect to commence distribution
of the value of the Member’s Vested Share held in the ESOP portion of the Plan not
later than one year after the end of the Plan Year:

	 	(i)	 	in which the Member separates from service on or after
attaining age 65 or by reason of Disability or death; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	which is the fifth Plan Year following the Plan Year in which
the Member otherwise separates from service, unless the Member is reemployed by
the Company or any Associated Company before such year.

	 	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Member or Deferred Member fails to
file a claim for benefits in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Member or
Deferred Member shall be deemed to have elected to defer distribution of his Vested
Share to as soon as administratively practicable following the date the Member
terminated employment or attained age 701/2, if later; provided that in no event shall
payment commence later than the April 1 following the calendar year in which the
Member terminated employment or attained age 701/2, if later.

	11.2	 	Valuation Date and Conditions of Distribution

	 	(a)	 	The value of any distribution will be determined as of the Valuation Date on
which a completed application for the distribution by the Member, Deferred Member or
Beneficiary is received and processed by the Savings Plan Administrator (or its
designee) or the next business day.

51

 

	 	(b)	 	Application by the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary must be in a form or
manner approved by the Benefits Administration Committee or its designee.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Generally, all funds distributed will be paid as soon as practicable following
the applicable Valuation Date. If part of the distribution is to be paid in stock, the
stock certificate will be distributed after the check representing the cash
distribution has been distributed.

	11.3	 	Methods of Distribution
	 
	 	 	After Termination of Employment occurs, and as soon as practicable following application by
the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary, distributions under the Plan shall be made in
the following manner:

	 	(a)	 	All distributions from other than the Exelis Stock Fund shall be made in cash.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Unless the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary elects to take Exelis Stock
for distributions from the Exelis Stock Fund, a distribution from such fund shall be in
cash. In all cases, fractional shares shall be paid in cash.
	 
	 	(c)	 	All distributions shall be made in the form of a lump sum payment, unless the
Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary elects otherwise, as provided below. All
distributions shall be made as soon as practicable after receipt of the application by
the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary in accordance with Section 11.2(b).
However, with prior notice in a form or manner approved by the Benefits Administration
Committee, distribution may be made in one of the installment methods of payment
described in (i) or (ii) below, subject to the restrictions provided below or in
Section 11.1(b).

	 	(i)	 	Provided the value of the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or
Beneficiary’s Vested Share is at least $5,000, and the first payment is at
least $1,000, by payment in annual installments over a period elected by the
Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary. The period over which annual
installments may be paid may not exceed the life expectancy of the Member,
Deferred Member or Beneficiary, or if the Member or Deferred Member (for this
purpose Deferred Member does not include a spouse Beneficiary) is married, and
so elects, the joint life expectancy of the Member or Deferred Member and the
Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse. All such installments shall be
determined as follows:

	 	(A)	 	The amount of the annual installments to be
paid to each Member or Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of
the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death) making such an election shall
be based upon the value of his Accounts as of the Valuation Date
coinciding with or next following the date of receipt by the Savings
Plan Administrator or its designee of his completed application and
each anniversary thereof, and shall be determined by multiplying such
value by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be one and the
denominator of which shall be the number of unpaid annual installments.
	 
	 	(B)	 	Any Member or Deferred Member who is no more
than 70 years old and who elects annual installment payments may, at
any time thereafter, elect, by filing a request with the Savings Plan
Administrator or its designee, to cancel annual installment payments.
The Valuation Date

52

 

	 	 	 	applicable to such election shall be the business day coinciding with
or next following the date on which his completed request is received
and processed by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee.
Such Member or Deferred Member may at any time thereafter, make
another payment election under the Plan, provided that he may elect
only a lump sum payment or partial distributions.
	 
	 	(C)	 	If a Member or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is
not his spouse, and the Member is deceased, annual installment payments
to such Beneficiary may not extend beyond the end of the calendar year
which contains the fifth anniversary of the death of the Member or
Deferred Member.

	 	(ii)	 	Provided the value of the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or
Beneficiary’s Vested Share is at least $5,000, and the first payment is at
least $1,000, by payment in annual installments over the Member’s or Deferred
Member’s life expectancy or, if the Member or Deferred Member is married, and
so elects, over the joint life expectancies of the Member or Deferred Member
and the Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse, as actuarially determined at the
time of commencement of the initial installment and as redetermined annually
thereafter. The amount of such installments will be based on the value of his
Accounts as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or next following the date of
receipt by the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee of his application
and each anniversary thereof, and shall be determined by multiplying such value
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be one and the denominator of which
shall be the number of years and fraction thereof of his life expectancy based
on his age and the mortality table adopted by the Benefits Administration
Committee for such purpose at the time the installment is payable. Any Member
or Deferred Member who is no more than 70 years old and who elects annual
installment payments over his life expectancy may at any time thereafter elect
to cancel such payments by filing a request with the Savings Plan Administrator
or its designee. Such Member or Deferred Member may, at any time thereafter,
make another payment election under the Plan. Life expectancy installments
described in this paragraph are not available to a Beneficiary who is not the
spouse of a Member or Deferred Member.

	 	 	 	Installment payments under (i) or (ii) above shall be made in the form of Exelis
Stock or cash, or both, as provided in (a) and (b), above.
	 
	 	(d)	 	If a Member or Deferred Member elects a distribution other than installments as
provided in (c)(i) or (c)(ii) above and the Member or Deferred Member dies after the
Valuation Date applicable to such distribution but prior to negotiation of any check(s)
comprising any portion of such distribution, then the distribution otherwise payable in
cash shall be paid to his estate. If more than one check comprises the cash portion of
such distribution and the Member or Deferred Member negotiates the first check but dies
prior to the negotiation of any subsequent check, then any
subsequent check shall be paid to his estate. If a Member or Deferred Member
elects a distribution and the Member or Deferred Member dies prior to the Valuation
Date applicable to such distribution, then the distribution shall be paid to his
Beneficiary.
	 
	 	(e)	 	If a Member or Deferred Member elects installment distributions as provided in
(c)(i) or (c)(ii) above and the Member or Deferred Member dies before all the
installments are paid, then the following provisions shall apply:

53

 

	 	(i)	 	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not his
spouse, and if an installment is paid with a Valuation Date that occurred prior
to the date of death of the Member or Deferred Member and prior to the Member’s
or Deferred Member’s negotiation of the check comprising all or a portion of
such installment, then such installment (or portion thereof) shall be paid to
his estate; the remaining value of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts
shall be paid to his Beneficiary at one time.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is not his
spouse, such Beneficiary may request annual installment payments, provided that
the number of installments does not extend beyond the end of the calendar year
which contains the fifth anniversary of the death of the Member or Deferred
Member.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	If the Member’s or Deferred Member’s Beneficiary is his
spouse, then such spouse Beneficiary may continue receiving payment of the
deceased Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts pursuant to the same method of
distribution elected by the Member or Deferred Member, except that the spouse’s
life expectancy shall be substituted for the life expectancy of the Member.
The spouse Beneficiary may, at any time while receiving payment of such
Accounts, elect, by filing a request with the Savings Plan Administrator or its
designee, to cancel installment payments. Such spouse Beneficiary may at any
time thereafter, elect a lump sum payment or partial distributions, subject to
the provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.

	 	(f)	 	The Vested Share of a Member who, following Termination of Employment, fails to
apply for distribution of such Vested Share, shall be paid in cash (or, if the Member
so elects shares of Exelis Stock) in the form of a lump sum payment, provided that the
value of such Vested Share is $5,000 or less on a Valuation Date no earlier than the
next business day following his Termination of Employment, without regard to the value
of the Member’s Vested Share at the time of an earlier distribution.
	 
	 	 	 	In the event a Member who is subject to the provisions of the immediately preceding
paragraph and whose Vested Share are in excess of $1,000 fails to make an
affirmative election to either receive the lump sum payment in cash or have it
directly rolled over to an eligible retirement plan pursuant to the provisions of
Section 11.8 within such election period as shall be prescribed by the Benefits
Administration Committee, the Benefits Administration Committee shall direct the
Trustee to transfer such lump sum payment to an individual retirement plan (within
the meaning of Section 7701(c)(37) of the Code) (“IRA”) selected by the PFTIC. The
IRA shall be maintained for the exclusive benefit of the Member on whose behalf such
transfer is made. The transfer shall occur as soon as practicable following the end
of the election period. The funds in the IRA shall be invested in an investment
product designed to preserve principal and provide a reasonable rate of return,
whether or not such return is guaranteed, consistent with liquidity, as determined
from time to time by the PFTIC. In implementing the provisions of this paragraph,
the Benefits Administration Committee and/or the PFTIC as appropriate pursuant to
the terms of this paragraph, shall:

	 	(i)	 	enter into a written agreement with each IRA provider setting
forth the terms and conditions applicable to the establishment and maintenance
of the IRA in conformity with applicable law;

54

 

	 	(ii)	 	furnish Members with notice of the Plan’s automatic rollover
provisions, including, but not limited to, a description of the nature of the
investment product in which the assets of the IRA will be invested and how the
fees and expenses attendant to the IRA will be allocated, and a statement that
a Member may roll over the assets of the IRA to another eligible retirement
plan. Such notice shall be provided to Members in such time and form as shall
be prescribed by the Benefits Administration Committee in accordance with
applicable law;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	keep records, when appropriate, of a Member’s after-tax basis
in the amount transferred to the IRA; and
	 
	 	(iv)	 	fulfill such other requirements of the safe harbor contained in
Department of Labor Regulation §2550.404a-2 and, if applicable, the conditions
of Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 2004-16.

	 	 	Alternative methods of distribution may apply to that portion of a Member’s or a Deferred
Member’s Accounts attributable to a Prior Plan Account, as specified in the applicable
appendices to the Plan.
	 
	11.4	 	Death of Beneficiary
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, upon the death of a Beneficiary
with Accounts remaining in the Plan, the remaining value of all such Accounts shall be paid
in a lump sum distribution within one year of the Beneficiary’s death to the Beneficiary
selected by the Beneficiary, if any, or if no such Beneficiary has been named by the
Beneficiary, the remaining value of all such Accounts shall be paid in a lump sum
distribution within one year of the Beneficiary’s death to the estate of the Beneficiary.
	 
	11.5	 	Proof of Death and Right of Beneficiary or Other Person
	 
	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee may require and rely on such proof of death and such
evidence of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the undistributed value
of the Accounts of a deceased Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary as the Benefits
Administration Committee may deem proper, and its determination of death and of the right of
such Beneficiary or other person to receive payment shall be conclusive. Payment to any
Beneficiary shall be final and fully satisfy and discharge the obligation of the Plan with
respect to any and all Accounts of a deceased Member or Deferred Member.
	 
	 	 	In the event of a dispute regarding the account of a deceased Member or Deferred Member, the
Benefits Administration Committee may make a final determination, or initiate or participate
in any action or proceeding as may be necessary or appropriate to determine any Beneficiary
under the Plan.
	 
	 	 	During the pendency of any action or proceeding, the Benefits Administration Committee may
deposit an amount equal to the disputed payment with the court and such deposit shall
relieve the Plan of all of its obligations with respect to any such disputed Accounts.
Alternatively the Benefits Administration Committee, at its discretion, may direct any
disputed accounts be invested in the Stable Value Fund or such other as designated by the
PFTIC pending the resolution of any dispute regarding a deceased Member’s or Deferred
Member’s Accounts.

55

 

	11.6	 	Completion of Appropriate Notice.
	 
	 	 	Except as provided in this Section, if the value of a Member’s Vested Share exceeds $5,000,
an election by the Member or Deferred Member (for this purpose Deferred Member does not
include a spouse Beneficiary) to receive a distribution prior to age 65 shall not be valid
unless the written election is made after the Member or Deferred Member has received the
notice required under Section 1.411(a)-11(c) of the Income Tax Regulations and within a
reasonable time before the effective date of the commencement of the distribution as
prescribed by said regulations. Such distribution may commence less than 30 days after the
notice required under Section 1.411(a)-11(c) of the Income Tax Regulations is given,
provided that:

	 	(a)	 	the Benefits Administration Committee clearly informs the Member that he has a
right to a period of at least 30 days after receiving the notice to consider the
decision of whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a particular
distribution option); and
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Member, after receiving the notice under Sections 411 and 417 of the Code,
affirmatively elects a distribution.

	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee may permit any notices to be given electronically, in
accordance with procedures to be established in the Benefits Administration Committee’s sole
discretion.
	 
	11.7	 	Restoration of Prior Forfeiture

	 	(a)	 	On Rehire
	 
	 	 	 	If a Member’s employment is terminated other than by Retirement or Disability and as
a result of such termination a portion of his Account is forfeited, such amount
shall be subsequently restored to his Accounts provided:

	 	(i)	 	he is reemployed by the Company or an Associated Company before
he incurs a Break in Service; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	if he received a distribution from the Plan subsequent to his
Termination of Employment, he repays the full amount of his Company Matching
Account and Company Floor Account that was distributed to him.

	 	(b)	 	On Rehire of Deferred Member
	 
	 	 	 	If a Deferred Member whose employment is terminated other than by Retirement or
Disability and as a result of such termination an amount to his credit was forfeited
under this Plan or the Pre-Distribution ITT Plan, such amount shall be subsequently
restored to his Accounts, without adjustment for earnings during the period from the
time of termination to the date of restoration, provided he is reemployed by the
Company or an Associated Company before he incurs a Break in Service. Such
restoration shall be made as of the Valuation Date next following the date the
Savings Plan Administrator or its designee is informed of the Deferred Member’s
reemployment. Such restored amounts shall be invested in accordance with the
Member’s current investment election under the provisions of Section 7.2. The
extent to which the Member earns a Vested Share in amounts restored under this
Section 11.7(b) shall be determined under Section 5.4 and Article 6.

56

 

	11.8	 	Direct Rollover of Certain Distributions
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, with respect to any withdrawal or
distribution from this Plan pursuant to Article 9 or this Article 11 which is determined by
the Savings Plan Administrator or its designee to be an “eligible rollover distribution,”
the distributee may elect, at the time and in a manner prescribed by the Benefits
Administration Committee for such purpose, to have the Plan make a “direct rollover” of all
or part of such withdrawal or distribution to a maximum of two “eligible retirement plans”
which accept such rollover. The following definitions apply to the terms used in this
Section 11.8:

periodic payments made for the life or life expectancy of the distributee, or
for a specified period of ten years or more;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	any distribution required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	after-tax amounts (determined without regard to the exclusion

individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, or a
Roth individual retirement account described in Section 408A(b) of the Code; or
transferred (i.e., directly rolled) to a qualified plan described in Section
401(a) of the Code or to an annuity plan described in Section 403(b) of the
Code provided such plan agrees to separately account for such after-tax amount
and earnings thereon;
	 
	 	(iv)	 	any in-service withdrawal that is made on account of hardship;

applicable part thereof shall be of no further force or effect without necessity of further
amendment of the Plan.
	 
	11.9	 	Elective Transfers From Plan
	 
	 	 	The Accounts of a Member or Deferred Member shall be eligible for an elective transfer to a
like transferee employee plan in connection with an asset or stock acquisition, merger, or
other similar transaction involving a change in employer of the Member or Deferred Member
(i.e., an acquisition or disposition within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.410(b)-2(f)) or, with the permission of the Benefits Administration Committee, in
connection with the Member or Deferred Member’s transfer of employment to a different job
for which service does not result in additional allocations under the Plan as set forth
herein.

	 	(a)	 	Elective Transfer. An elective transfer of a Member’s or Deferred Member’s
Accounts between this Plan and another qualified plan maintained by a transferee shall
be available only if the transfer meets the requirements of Section 414(l) of the Code
and each of the following requirements have been met:

	 	(i)	 	Voluntary Election

	 	(A)	 	Member Election
	 
	 	 	 	The transfer must have been conditioned upon a voluntary, fully
informed election by the Member or Deferred Member to transfer such
Accounts to such transferee plan.

58

 

	 	(B)	 	Benefit Retention Alternative
	 
	 	 	 	In making the voluntary election provided for in this section, the
Member or Deferred Member shall have had the option of retaining such
Member’s or Deferred Member’s Accounts (including all optional forms

Appendices.
	 
	 	(C)	 	Spousal Election

	 	(D)	 	Notice Requirement
	 
	 	 	 	The notice requirement under Section 417 of the Code, if applicable,
must have been met with respect to the Member or Deferred Member and
spousal transfer election.

	 	(ii)	 	Amount of Benefit Transferred
	 
	 	 	 	The amount of the Accounts transferred, including the amount of any
contemporaneous Section 401(a)(31) of the Code transfer to the transferee
plan, must have equaled the entire balance of Accounts under the Plan of the
Member or Deferred Member whose Accounts are being transferred.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Benefit Under the Transferee Plan
	 
	 	 	 	An elective transfer may be permitted even if the Member’s or Deferred
Member’s Accounts are not fully vested, provided that the requirements of
Section 411(a)(10) of the Code are satisfied by the transferee employee
plan.

	 	(b)	 	Status of Elective Transfer as Distribution
	 
	 	 	 	The transfer of Accounts pursuant to the elective transfer rules of this Section
generally is not treated as a distribution for purposes of Section 401(a) of the
Code (except to the extent the Member is eligible to receive a full distribution of
his Accounts under this Plan on the date of the transfer). In all cases, however,
the transfer is not treated as a distribution for purposes of the minimum
distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.

	11.10	 	Elective Transfer to Plan
	 
	 	 	The Plan shall accept elective transfers from plans qualified under Section 401(a) of the
Code that result from an asset or stock acquisition, merger, or other similar transaction
involving a change in employer of the Employee (i.e., an acquisition or disposition within
the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.410(b)-2(f)) or, with the permission of the
Benefits Administration Committee, in connection with the Employee’s transfer of employment
to a different job for which service does not result in additional allocations under the
Plan, provided that the elective transfer meets the requirements of Section 414(l) of the
Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.411(d)-(4), Q&A-3.

59

 

	11.11	 	Minimum Required Distributions
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 11, all distributions from the Plan
shall conform to the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including the incidental
death benefit provisions of Section 401(a)(9)(G) of the Code. Distributions under this
Article 11 shall meet the requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.401(a)(9)-2 through
1.401(a)(9)-9. Such requirements shall be administered in accordance with the regulations
issued under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, as follows:

	 	(a)	 	The portion of any distribution that constitutes a required minimum
distribution under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code shall be the lesser of:

	 	(i)	 	the quotient obtained by dividing the Member’s Accounts by the
distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Treasury
Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-9, using the Member’s age as of the Member’s
birthday in the distribution calendar year; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	if the Member’s sole designated beneficiary for the
distribution calendar year is the Member’s spouse, and the spouse is more than
ten years younger than the Member, the quotient obtained by dividing the
Member’s Accounts by the number in the Joint and Last Survivor Table set forth
in Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-9, using the Member’s and spouse’s
attained ages as of the Member’s and the spouse’s birthdays in the distribution
calendar year.

	 	 	 	The provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the regulations thereunder shall
override any Plan provision that is inconsistent with Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.
	 
	 	(b)	 	For purposes of paragraph (a) above, the following definitions apply:

	 	(i)	 	“Designated beneficiary” means the individual who is designated
as the Beneficiary and is the designated beneficiary under Section 401(a)(9) of
the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations. In the event a trust is
designated as the beneficiary of the Member, the beneficiaries of the trust
shall be deemed designated beneficiaries provided the applicable requirements
set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-4 are met.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	“Distribution calendar year” means a calendar year for which a
minimum distribution is required. For a Member who is a 5-percent owner in
active service, the first distribution calendar year is the calendar year in
which the Member attains age 701/2. For a Member who is not a 5-percent owner,
the first distribution calendar year is the later of the calendar year in which
the Member attains age 701/2 or the year in which the Member terminates
employment.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	“Life expectancy” means life expectancy as computed by use of
the Single Life Table in Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-9, Q & A-1.
	 
	 	(iv)	 	“Member’s Accounts” means the balance of the Member’s Accounts
as of the last Valuation Date in the calendar year immediately preceding the
distribution calendar year (“valuation calendar year”) increased by the amount
of contributions made and allocated or forfeitures allocated to the Member’s
Accounts as of dates in the valuation calendar year after such last Valuation
Date

60

 

	 	 	 	and decreased by distributions made in the valuation calendar year after
such last Valuation Date. The Member’s Accounts for the valuation calendar
year include any amounts rolled over or transferred to the Plan either in
the valuation calendar year or in the distribution calendar year if
distributed or transferred in the valuation calendar year.

	 	(c)	 	Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the following special
rules applied with respect to required minimum distributions for the 2009 distribution
calendar year:

	 	(i)	 	A Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary who would have been
required to receive a required minimum distribution for the 2009 distribution
calendar year but for the enactment of Section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code (a
“2009 RMD”) and who would have satisfied that requirement by receiving a
distribution equal to only the 2009 RMD did not receive that 2009 RMD unless
such Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary chose to receive such distribution.
All affected Members, Deferred Members and Beneficiaries were given the
opportunity to elect to receive their 2009 RMDs.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	A Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary who would have been
required to receive a 2009 RMD and who would have satisfied that requirement by
receiving:

	 	(A)	 	a total distribution;
	 
	 	(B)	 	a distribution that was one or more payments in
a series of substantially equal distributions (that included the 2009
RMD) made at least annually and expected to last for the life (or life
expectancy) of the Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary;
	 
	 	(C)	 	a distribution that was one or more payments in
a series of substantially equal distributions (that included the 2009
RMD) made at least annually and expected to last for the joint lives
(or joint life expectancies) of the Member, Deferred Member or
Beneficiary and the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or Beneficiary’s
designated beneficiary; or
	 
	 	(D)	 	a distribution that was one or more payments in
a series of substantially equal distributions (that included the 2009
RMD) made for a period of at least 10 years

	 	 	 	received that distribution for the 2009 distribution calendar year.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Notwithstanding Section 11.8(b) and solely for purposes of
applying the direct rollover provisions of the Plan, a 2009 RMD was not treated
as an eligible rollover distribution.

	 	(b)	 	The Benefits Administration Committee shall have total and complete discretion

ARTICLE 14

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

	14.1	 	Amendment of Plan
	 
	 	 	The Board of Directors or its delegate reserves the right at any time and from time to time,
and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate to conform with governmental
regulations or other policies, to modify or amend in whole or in part any or all of the
provisions of the Plan; provided that no such modification or amendment (a) shall make it
possible for any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted to, purposes
other than for the exclusive benefit of Members, Deferred Members and Beneficiaries; or (b)
shall increase the duties of the Trustee without its consent thereto in writing, other than
to comport with changes in the Code, ERISA or the rules thereunder. Except as may be
required to conform with governmental regulations, no such amendment shall adversely affect
the rights of any Member or Deferred Member with respect to contributions made on his behalf
prior to the date of such amendment.
	 
	 	 	However, no amendment shall make it possible for any part of the funds of the Plan to be
used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled
to benefits under the Plan. Except to the extent permitted under Section 411(d)(6) of the
Code and regulations issued thereunder, no amendment shall be made which has the effect of
decreasing the balance of the Accounts of any Member or of reducing the nonforfeitable
percentage of the balance of the Accounts of a Member below the nonforfeitable percentage
computed under the Plan as in effect on the date on which the amendment is adopted, or if
later, the date on which the amendment becomes effective. In addition, no amendment shall be
made that has the effect of eliminating or restricting an optional form of benefit to the
extent it is protected under Section 411(d)(6) of the Code.
	 
	14.2	 	Termination of Plan

	 	(a)	 	The Plan is entirely voluntary on the part of the Company. The Board of
Directors reserves the right at any time to terminate the Plan, the trust agreement and
the trust hereunder or to suspend, reduce or partially or completely discontinue
contributions thereto. In the event of such termination or partial termination of the
Plan or complete discontinuance of contributions, the interests of Members and Deferred
Members shall automatically become nonforfeitable.
	 
	 	(b)	 	In the event of such termination or partial termination or complete
discontinuance, any forfeitures not previously applied in accordance with Section 5.5
shall be credited ratably to the Accounts of all Members and Deferred Members in
proportion to the amounts of Company Matching Contributions made pursuant to Section
5.1 credited during the current calendar year, or, if no Company Matching Contributions
have been made during the current calendar year, then in proportion to such Company
Matching Contributions during the last previous calendar year during which such Company
Matching Contributions were made.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Upon termination of the Plan, Before-Tax Savings, with earnings thereon, shall
only be distributed to Members if (i) neither the Company nor an Associated Company
establishes or maintains a successor defined contribution plan, and (ii) payment is
made to the Members in the form of a lump sum distribution (as defined in Section
402(e)(4)(D) of the Code, without regard to subclauses (I) through (IV) of clause (i)
thereof). For purposes of this paragraph, a “successor defined contribution plan” is a

66

 

	 	 	 	defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in
Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code (“ESOP”) or a simplified employee pension as defined
in Section 408(k) of the Code (“SEP”)) which exists at the time the Plan is
terminated or within the 12-month period beginning on the date all assets are
distributed. However, in no event shall a defined contribution plan be deemed a
successor plan if fewer than 2 percent of the employees who are eligible to
participate in the Plan at the time of its termination are or were eligible to
participate under another defined contribution plan of the Company or an Associated
Company (other than an ESOP or a SEP, as herein defined) at any time during the
period beginning 12 months before and ending 12 months after the date of the Plan’s
termination.

	14.3	 	Merger or Consolidation of Plan
	 
	 	 	The Board of Directors or its delegate may, in its sole discretion, merge this Plan with
another qualified plan or transfer a portion of the Plan’s assets or liabilities to another
qualified plan, subject to any applicable legal requirement. The Plan may not be merged or
consolidated with, nor may its assets or liabilities be transferred to, any other plan
unless each Member, Deferred Member, or Beneficiary under the Plan would, if the resulting
plan were then terminated, receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or
transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to
receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer if the Plan had then
terminated.

67

 

ARTICLE 15

TENDER OFFER

	15.1	 	Applicability
	 
	 	 	The provisions of this Article 15 shall apply in the event any person, either alone or in
conjunction with others, makes a tender offer, or exchange offer, or otherwise offers to
purchase or solicits an offer to sell to such person one percent or
more of the outstanding shares of a class of Exelis Stock held by the Trustee hereunder (herein jointly and
severally referred to as a “tender offer”). As to any tender offer, each Member and
Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member)
shall have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the Plan
will be tendered.
	 
	15.2	 	Instructions to Trustee
	 
	 	 	In the event a tender offer for Exelis Stock is commenced, the Benefits Administration
Committee, promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of such tender offer, shall
transfer certain of its recordkeeping functions to an independent recordkeeper. The
functions so transferred shall be those necessary to preserve the confidentiality of any
directions given by the Members and Deferred Members (or Beneficiary in the event of the
death of the Member or Deferred Member) in connection with the tender offer. The Trustee may
not take any action in response to a tender offer except as otherwise provided in this
Article 15. Each Member is, for all purposes of this Article 15, hereby designated a named
fiduciary within the meaning of Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA with respect to the shares of
Exelis Stock allocated to his Accounts, determined as herein described. An individual’s
proportionate share of the Exelis Stock Fund as to which he holds fiduciary status for
purposes of responding to a tender or exchange offer shall be determined at the time such
fiduciary rights are exercisable by multiplying the number of shares credited at that time
to the Exelis Stock Fund by a fraction, the numerator of which is the value (as of the
Valuation Date designated by the Benefits Administration Committee for this purpose) of that
part of the Member’s Accounts invested in the Exelis Stock Fund and the denominator of which
is the aggregate value of all amounts allocated to the Exelis Stock Fund. Each Member and
Deferred Member (or Beneficiary in the event of the death of the Member or Deferred Member)
may direct the Trustee to sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the Exelis
Stock allocated to any such individual’s Accounts in accordance with the provisions,
conditions and terms of such tender offer and the provisions of this Article 15, provided,
however, that such directions shall be confidential and shall not be divulged by the Trustee
or independent recordkeeper to the Company or to any director, officer, employee or agent of
the Company, it being the intent of this provision of Section 15.2 to ensure that the
Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) cannot determine the direction
given by any Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary. Such instructions shall be in such form
and shall be filed in such manner and at such time as the Trustee may prescribe. The
confidentiality provision of this Section shall likewise apply to the directions given to,
and actions taken by, the Trustee pursuant to Section 15.5.
	 
	15.3	 	Trustee Action on Member Instructions
	 
	 	 	The Trustee shall sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the Exelis Stock
allocated to the Member’s, Deferred Member’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts with respect to which
it has received directions to do so under this Article 15 or as provided in Section 15.5.
The proceeds of a disposition directed by a Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary from his
Accounts under this Article 15 shall be allocated to such individual’s Accounts and be
governed by the provisions of

68

 

	 	 	Section 15.5 or other applicable provisions of the Plan and the trust agreements established
under the Plan.
	 
	15.4	 	Action With Respect to Members Not Instructing the Trustee or Not Issuing Valid Instructions
	 
	 	 	To the extent to which Members, Deferred Members and Beneficiaries do not issue valid
directions to the Trustee to sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the
Exelis Stock allocated to their Accounts, such individuals shall be deemed to have directed
the Trustee that such shares remain invested in Exelis Stock subject to all provisions of
the Plan, including Section 15.5 and the trust agreements established under the Plan.
	 
	15.5	 	Investment of Plan Assets after Tender Offer
	 
	 	 	To the extent possible, the proceeds of a disposition of Exelis Stock in an individual’s
Accounts shall be reinvested in Exelis Stock by the Trustee as expeditiously as possible in
the exercise of the Trustee’s fiduciary responsibility and shall otherwise be held by the
Trustee subject to the provisions of the trust agreement, the Plan and any applicable note
or loan agreement. In the event that Exelis Stock is no longer available to be acquired
following a tender offer, the Company may direct the substitution of new employer securities
for the Exelis Stock or for the proceeds of any disposition of Exelis Stock. Pending the
substitution of new employer securities or the termination of the Plan and trust, the Trust
Fund shall be invested in such securities as the Trustee shall determine; provided, however,
that, pending such investment, the Trustee shall invest the cash proceeds in short-term
securities issued by the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof
or any other investments of a short-term nature, including corporate obligations or
participations therein and interim collective or common investment funds.

fees, with respect to any Investment Fund, may be paid in part by the Company. Any
such charges, expenses, taxes and fees not paid by the Company shall be paid from the
Investment Fund with respect to which they are incurred.
	 
	 	(b)	 	An annual charge to the Trust Fund of up to 0.25% of the market value of the
assets held by such Trust Fund may be charged and applied to satisfy expenses incurred
in conjunction with Plan administration, including, but not limited to, Trustee,
recordkeeping, and audit fees; the Company shall pay all other expenses reasonably
incurred in administering the Plan, including expenses of the Benefits Administration
Committee, the PFTIC and the Trustee, such compensation to the Trustee as from time to
time may be agreed between the PFTIC and Trustee, fees for legal services, any
investment management fees not paid pursuant to Section 16.2(a), and all taxes, if any.

	16.3	 	Source of Payment
	 
	 	 	Benefits under the Plan shall be payable only out of the Trust Fund, and the Company shall
not have any legal obligation, responsibility or liability to make any direct payment of
benefits under the Plan. Neither the Company nor the Trustee guarantees the Trust Fund
against any loss or depreciation or guarantees the payment of any benefit hereunder. No
person shall have any rights under the Plan with respect to the Trust Fund, or against the
Company, except as specifically provided for herein.
	 
	16.4	 	Inalienability of Benefits
	 
	 	 	Except as specifically provided in the Plan or as Section 401(a)(13) of the Code or other
applicable law may otherwise require or as may be required under the terms of a qualified
domestic relations order, no benefit under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to
anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any
attempts so to do shall be void, nor shall any such benefit be in any manner liable for or
subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the person entitled to
such benefit; and in the event that the Benefits Administration Committee shall find that
any attempt has been made to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber
or charge any of the benefits under the Plan of any Member, Deferred Member or Beneficiary
who is or may become entitled to benefits hereunder, except as specifically provided in the
Plan or as applicable law may otherwise require, then such benefit shall cease and
terminate, and in that event the Benefits Administration Committee shall hold or apply the
same to or for the benefit of such Member, Deferred Member

70

 

	 	 	or Beneficiary who is or may become entitled to benefits hereunder, his spouse, children,
parents or other blood relatives, or any of them.
	 
	 	 	A Member’s benefit under the Plan shall be offset or reduced by the amount the Member is
required to pay to the Plan under the circumstances set forth in Section 401(a)(13)(C) of
the Code.
	 
	 	 	A Member’s benefit under the Plan shall be distributed as required because of the
enforcement of a federal tax levy made pursuant to Section 6331 of the Code or the
collection by the United States on a judgment resulting from an unpaid tax assessment.
	 
	16.5	 	No Right to Employment
	 
	 	 	Nothing herein contained nor any action taken under the provisions hereof shall be construed
as giving any Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company.
	 
	16.6	 	Inability to Locate Member or Beneficiary
	 
	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Benefits Administration Committee is unable to locate
any person to whom a payment is due under the Plan or any person fails to present a check
for payment in a timely manner, the amount due such person shall be forfeited at such time
as the Benefits Administration Committee shall determine in its sole discretion and pursuant
to nondiscriminatory rules established for that purpose (but in all events prior to the time
such payment would otherwise escheat under any applicable State law). If, however, such a
person later files a claim for such payment before the Plan is terminated, the benefit will
be reinstated and payment made without any interest earned thereon.
	 
	16.7	 	Uniform Action
	 
	 	 	Action by the Benefits Administration Committee shall be uniform in nature as applied to all
persons similarly situated, and no such action shall be taken which will discriminate in
favor of any Members who are Highly Compensated Employees.
	 
	16.8	 	Headings
	 
	 	 	The headings of the sections in this Plan are placed herein for convenience of reference and
in the case of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such headings, shall control.
	 
	16.9	 	Use of Pronouns
	 
	 	 	The masculine pronouns as used herein shall be equally applicable to both men and women, and
words used in the singular are intended to include the plural, whenever appropriate.
	 
	16.10	 	Construction
	 
	 	 	The Plan shall be construed, regulated and administered in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, subject to the provisions of applicable federal laws.

ARTICLE 17

TOP-HEAVY PROVISIONS

	17.1	 	Definitions
	 
	 	 	The following definitions apply to the terms used in this Section:

	 	(a)	 	“applicable determination date” means the last day of the preceding Plan Year;
	 
	 	(b)	 	“top-heavy ratio” means the ratio of (i) the value of the aggregate of the
Accounts under the Plan for key employees to (ii) the value of the aggregate of the
Accounts under the Plan for all key employees and non-key employees;
	 
	 	(c)	 	“key employee” means any employee or former employee (including any deceased
employee) who at any time during the Plan Year that includes the determination date was
an officer of the Company or Associated Company having Statutory Compensation greater
than $130,000 (as adjusted under Section 416(i)(1) of the Code for Plan Years beginning
after December 31, 2002), a 5-percent owner (as defined in Section 416(i)(1)(B)(i) of
the Code) of the Company or Associated Company, or a 1-percent owner (as defined in
Section 416(i)(1)(B)(ii) of the Code) of the Company or Associated Company having
Statutory Compensation of more than $150,000. The determination of who is a key
employee will be made in accordance with Section 416(i) of the Code and the applicable
regulations and other guidance of general applicability issued thereunder;
	 
	 	(d)	 	“non-key employee” means any Employee who is not a key employee;
	 
	 	(e)	 	“applicable Valuation Date” means the Valuation Date coincident with or
immediately preceding the last day of the preceding Plan Year;
	 
	 	(f)	 	“required aggregation group” means any other qualified plan(s) of the Company
or an Associated Company (including plans that terminated within the five-year period
ending on the applicable determination date) in which there are Members who are key
employees or which enable(s) the Plan to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(4) or
410 of the Code; and
	 
	 	(g)	 	“permissive aggregation group” means each plan in the required aggregation
group and any other qualified plan(s) of the Company or an Associated Company in which
all members are non-key employees, if the resulting aggregation group continues to meet
the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code.

	17.2	 	Determination of Top Heavy Status
	 
	 	 	For purposes of this Section, the Plan shall be “top-heavy” with respect to any Plan Year if
as of the applicable determination date the top-heavy ratio exceeds 60 percent. The
top-heavy ratio shall be determined as of the applicable Valuation Date in accordance with
Sections 416(g)(3) and (4) of the Code and Article 5 of this Plan, and shall take into
account any contributions made after the applicable Valuation Date but before the last day
of the Plan Year in which the applicable Valuation Date occurs. The determination of
whether the Plan is top-heavy is subject to the following:

72

 

	 	(a)	 	the Accounts under the Plan will be combined with the account balances or the
present value of accrued benefits under each other plan in the required aggregation
group and, in the Company’s discretion, may be combined with the account balances or
the present value of accrued benefits under any other qualified plan in the permissive
aggregation group;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Accounts for an employee as of the applicable determination date shall be
increased by the distributions made with respect to the employee under the Plan and any
plan aggregated with the Plan under Section 416(g)(2) of the Code during the one-year
period (five-year period in the case of a distribution made for a reason other than
severance from employment, death, or disability) ending on the applicable determination
date;
	 
	 	(c)	 	distributions under any plan that terminated within the five-year period ending
on the applicable determination date shall be taken into account if such plan contained
key employees and, therefore, would have been part of the required aggregation group;
and
	 
	 	(d)	 	if an individual has not performed services for the Company or an Associated
Company at any time during the one-year period ending on the applicable determination
date, such individual’s accounts and the present value of his or her accrued benefits
shall not be taken into account.

	17.3	 	Minimum Requirements
	 
	 	 	For any Plan Year with respect to which the Plan is top-heavy, an additional Company
contribution shall be allocated on behalf of each Member (or each Employee eligible to
become a Member) who is not a “key employee,” and who has not separated from service as of
the last day of the Plan Year, to the extent that the amounts allocated to his Accounts as a
result of contributions made on his behalf under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 for the Plan Year
would otherwise be less than 3% of his Statutory Compensation. However, if the greatest
percentage of Statutory Compensation contributed on behalf of a key employee under Sections
4.1, 5.1, and 5.2 for the Plan Year (disregarding any contributions made under Section 5.7
for the Plan Year) would be less than 3%, such lesser percentage shall be substituted for
“3%” in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
17.3, no minimum contribution shall be made with respect to a Member, or an Employee who is
eligible to become a Member, if the required minimum benefit under Section 4l6(c)(1) of the
Code is provided by the Exelis Salaried Retirement Plan or any other qualified defined
benefit plan of the Company or an Associated Company.

73

 

ARTICLE 18

QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS

	18.1	 	Applicability of Article
	 
	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee shall apply the provisions of this Article with regard
to a Domestic Relations Order (as defined below) to the extent not inconsistent with Section
414(p) of the Code.
	 
	18.2	 	Establishment of Procedures
	 
	 	 	The Benefits Administration Committee shall establish procedures, consistent with Section
414(p) of the Code, to determine the qualified status of any Domestic Relations Order (as
defined below), to administer distributions under any Qualified Domestic Relations Order (as
defined below), and to provide to the Member and the Alternate Payee(s) (as defined below)
all notices required under Section 414(p) of the Code with respect to any Domestic Relations
Order. Such procedures shall be binding on all Members and Alternate Payees.
	 
	18.3	 	Determination of Qualified Domestic Relations Order Status
	 
	 	 	Within a reasonable period of time after the receipt of a certified copy of a Domestic
Relations Order (or any modification thereof), the Benefits Administration Committee or its
designee shall determine whether such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. The
Benefits Administration Committee shall have full and complete discretion to determine
whether a domestic relations order constitutes a qualified domestic relations order and
whether the Alternate Payee otherwise qualifies for benefits hereunder.
	 
	18.4	 	Establishment of Segregated Accounts and Payment Procedures

	 	(a)	 	Separate Account for Deferred Amounts
	 
	 	 	 	If a Domestic Relations Order has been determined to be a Qualified Domestic
Relations Order in accordance with Section 18.3, a separate account for the benefits
of the Alternate Payee named in such order shall be established.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Temporary Holding Account
	 
	 	 	 	If, during any period in which the issue of (i) whether a Domestic Relations Order
is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or (ii) whether a proposed Domestic
Relations Order would, if it were perfected as a Domestic Relations Order, be a
Qualified Domestic Relations Order is being determined (by the Benefits
Administration Committee, by a court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise), the
Alternate Payee would be entitled to any payment if the order has been determined to
be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, the Benefits Administration Committee shall
separately account for, and may cause to be segregated in a separate account, all
amounts which would have been payable to any Alternate Payee during such period if
such order had been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

74

 

	 	(c)	 	Payment from Temporary Holding Account in Certain Cases
	 
	 	 	 	If, by the expiration of the 18-month period beginning on the date the first payment
would be required to be made to an Alternate Payee under a Domestic Relations Order,
either it has been determined that a Domestic Relations Order is not a Qualified
Domestic Relations Order or the issue as to whether such order is a Qualified
Domestic Relations Order has not been resolved, the Benefits Administration
Committee shall cause to be paid all amounts which have been segregated (or
separately accounted for) by reason of such order pursuant to paragraph (b) above,
including any earnings having accrued thereon, to the person or persons who would
have been entitled to such amounts if there had been no order. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, if the Member or his or her Beneficiaries are not yet entitled,
or have not elected, to receive benefit payments under the Plan, such amounts,
including all earnings having accrued thereon, shall be restored to the Member’s
Accounts and invested in accordance with the investment election most recently
submitted by the Member pursuant to Section 7.4.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Payment from Separate Account and Temporary Holding Account to Alternate Payee
of Order if Determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order
	 
	 	 	 	If a Domestic Relations Order (or any modification thereof) is determined to be a
Qualified Domestic Relations Order, the Benefits Administration Committee shall
instruct the Trustee to apply, on a prospective basis, the terms and provisions of
such Qualified Domestic Relations Order, and, in the event any amounts were
segregated (or separately accounted for) by reason of such order pursuant to
paragraph (b) above, the Benefits Administration Committee shall cause to be paid in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan all amounts which have been so segregated
(and have not been released pursuant to paragraph (c)) (or separately accounted
for), including any earnings having accrued thereon, to the Alternate Payee(s)
entitled thereto.

	18.5	 	Subsequent Determination or Order to be Applied Prospectively
	 
	 	 	If a determination is made after the expiration of the 18-month period beginning on the date
the first payment would be required to be made to an Alternate Payee under a Domestic
Relations Order that such order (or any modification thereof) is a Qualified Domestic
Relations Order, such order shall be applied prospectively only.
	 
	18.6	 	Withdrawals, Distributions and Loans by or to Members.

	 	(a)	 	Withdrawals and Distributions
	 
	 	 	 	A Member or Deferred Member shall not be permitted to withdraw from the Plan, nor
shall there be distributed to a Member or Deferred Member, any amounts being held in
a segregated account by reason of a Domestic Relations Order.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Loans
	 
	 	 	 	In determining the maximum amount of any loan to a Member pursuant to Article 10,
the Benefits Administration Committee shall not include any portion of the Member’s
Vested Share being held in a segregated account (or being separately accounted for)
by reason of a Domestic Relations Order.

75

 

	18.7	 	Earliest Commencement Date
	 
	 	 	A Domestic Relations Order shall not fail to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order merely
because it provides for distribution to the Alternate Payee prior to the Member’s
Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the amount
payable to the Alternate Payee under the Qualified Domestic Relations Order is less than
$5,000, such amount shall be paid in one lump sum as soon as practicable following the
qualification of the order. If the amount exceeds $5,000, it may be paid as soon as
practicable following the qualification of the order if the Qualified Domestic Relations
Order so provides and the Alternate Payee consents thereto; otherwise, it may not be payable
before the earliest of the Member’s Termination of Employment, the time such amount could
otherwise be withdrawn under the terms of this Plan, or the Member’s attainment of age 50.
	 
	18.8	 	Definitions
	 
	 	 	For purposes of this Article:

	 	(a)	 	Alternate Payee shall mean any spouse, former spouse, child or other dependent
of a Member who is recognized by a Domestic Relations Order as having a right to
receive all, or a portion of, the benefits payable under the Plan with respect to such
Member.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Domestic Relations Order shall mean any judgment, decree or order (including
approval of a property settlement agreement) which:

	 	(i)	 	relates to the provision of child support, alimony payments or
marital property rights to a spouse, former spouse, child, or other dependent
of a Member; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	is made pursuant to a state domestic relations law (including a
community property law).

	 	(c)	 	Qualified Domestic Relations Order shall mean a Domestic Relations Order which
meets the requirements of Section 414(p)(1) of the Code.

76

 

APPENDIX A

This Appendix A shall apply solely to Members and Deferred Members who formerly participated in the
Allis-Chalmers Savings Plan (the “Allis-Chalmers Plan”) and with respect to whom assets were
transferred to the ISP from the Allis-Chalmers Plan. All service recognized under the
Allis-Chalmers Plan for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting shall be recognized
hereunder as Service.

	A.	 	Subject to Section 11.3 with respect to Vested Shares that are less than $5,000 and in
addition to the distribution forms enumerated in Section 11.3 of the Plan, upon incurring a
Termination of Employment a Member or Deferred Member described above may elect to receive
those amounts transferred from the Allis-Chalmers Plan to the ISP in the distribution forms
described herein:

	 	1.	 	In installments at intervals not more frequently than once per calendar quarter
over a period of years not exceeding the joint life expectancy of the Member or
Deferred Member and his spouse, as determined under Section 72 of the Code and the
regulations thereunder.
	 
	 	2.	 	In installments at intervals not more frequently than once per calendar quarter
over a period of years which does not extend beyond the Member’s or Deferred Member’s
life expectancy, calculated as follows:

	 	(i)	 	the fixed payment shall be determined annually at the time
payments are to commence, and as of the first day of each succeeding Plan Year,
by multiplying the amount transferred to the ISP from the Allis-Chalmers Plan
by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator is the
Member’s or Deferred Member’s life expectancy as of the date of such
determination, as determined under Section 72 of the Code and the regulations
thereunder; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	then dividing the amount determined under (i) above, by the
number of payments to be paid to the Member or Deferred Member during that Plan
Year.

	 	3.	 	By purchasing an annuity contract for the benefit of the Member or Deferred
Member from a legal reserve life insurance company selected by the Company. If the
Member or Deferred Member is married, such annuity contract shall be in the form of a
qualified joint and survivor annuity unless the Member or Deferred Member, with his
spouse’s consent unless it is established to the satisfaction of the Benefits
Administration Committee that the spouse cannot be located, elects another form of
annuity contract and does not revoke such election within the 90-day period ending on
the first day of the first period for which an amount is received as an annuity. Any
election by a Member or Deferred Member to waive a qualified joint and survivor annuity
must be in writing. The spouse’s consent must be in writing, must acknowledge the
effect of such election and be witnessed by a notary public. A qualified joint and
survivor annuity means an annuity for the life of the Member or Deferred Member with a
survivor annuity for the life of the spouse which is not less than 50 percent and not
more than 100 percent of the annuity which is payable during the joint lives of the
Member or Deferred Member and the spouse, and which is the actuarial equivalent of a
single life annuity for the life of the Member or Deferred Member.
	 
	 	 	 	The Member or Deferred Member shall, no less than 30 days and no more than 90 days
prior to the first day of the first period for which an amount is received as an
annuity, be provided a written explanation of (i) the terms and conditions of the
qualified joint and

77

 

	 	 	 	survivor annuity; (ii) the Member’s or Deferred Member’s right to make and the
effect of an election to waive the qualified joint and survivor annuity form of
benefit; (iii) the rights of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse; and (iv) the
right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of a previous election to waive the
qualified joint and survivor annuity. If an annuity form other than a qualified
joint and survivor annuity is elected hereunder, such annuity may not be in a form
that will provide for payments over a period extending beyond either the life of the
Member or Deferred Member (or the lives of the Member or Deferred Member and his
designated Beneficiary) or the life expectancy of the Member or Deferred Member (or
the life expectancy of the Member or Deferred Member and his designated
Beneficiary), and such other forms available under the annuity contract shall be so
designed as to provide that at least 50 percent of the reserve that would be
required to provide payments to the Member or Deferred Member in the normal form
under the Plan will be applied to him over his normal life expectancy.
	 
	 	 	 	The Company shall cause the contract to be assigned or delivered to the person or
persons then entitled to payment under it. Before the assignment or delivery of an
annuity contract, such contract shall be rendered nontransferable except by
surrender to the issuing insurance company.
	 
	 	4.	 	A Member or Deferred Member may elect to receive the benefits to which this
Appendix A applies in any combination of the forms enumerated herein.

	B.	 	Subject to Section 11.3 with respect to Vested Shares that are less than $5,000 and in
addition to the distribution forms enumerated in Section 11.3 of the Plan, in the event a
Member or Deferred Member dies before his benefit attributable to amounts transferred from the
Allis-Chalmers Plan to the ISP, or any portion thereof, has been paid to him, the unpaid
balance of such amount shall be paid to his designated Beneficiary as follows:

	 	1.	 	If the beneficiary is an individual or individuals, the amount described in
paragraph (B) above shall be paid to such Beneficiary in one of the methods described
in paragraph (A) above, as elected by such Beneficiary. In the case of a Beneficiary
who elects to receive installments or an annuity, payments thereunder shall not extend
beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary.
	 
	 	2.	 	If the Beneficiary is other than an individual or individuals, the Member’s or
Deferred Member’s benefit subject to this Appendix A shall be paid in a lump sum
payment.

	C.	 	Subject to Section 11.3 with respect to Vested Share that are less than $5,000 and in
addition to the distribution forms enumerated in Section 11.3 of the Plan, in the event a
Member or Deferred Member dies after installments have commenced, the remainder of his
distributable benefit will be paid to his Beneficiary in a single lump sum except that such
Beneficiary may elect to receive such benefit in the installment forms described in paragraph
(A) above. If the Beneficiary so elects, installments shall be over a period of years not
exceeding the number of years that installments would have continued to be paid to the Member
or Deferred Member had he lived, provided the Member or Deferred Member had been receiving
installments under subsection (A)(1) and over a period of years which does not extend beyond
the Member’s or Deferred Member’s life expectancy on the day before the date of his death,
provided the Member or Deferred Member has been receiving installments under subsection
(A)(2).
	 
	D.	 	Notwithstanding anything in this Appendix A to the contrary, single sum payments shall be
made, installments shall commence, and annuity contracts shall be purchased not later than one
year after the date of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s death. In the event a Beneficiary
dies before

78

 

	 	 	he has received the entire amount payable to him under this Appendix A, the Beneficiary’s
beneficiary shall be paid the balance of the amount payable hereunder in a single lump sum
payment within one year of the Beneficiary’s death.

79

 

APPENDIX B

This Appendix B shall apply solely to Members and Deferred Members who formerly participated in the
ITT Higbie Manufacturing Company Retirement Profit-Sharing Plan (the “Higbie Plan”) and with
respect to whom assets and liabilities were transferred to the ISP from the Higbie Plan. All
service recognized under the Higbie Plan for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting
were recognized under the ISP as Service.

	A.	 	Subject to Section 11.3 with respect to Vested Shares that are less than $5,000 and in
addition to the distribution forms enumerated in Section 11.3 of the Plan, upon incurring a
Termination of Employment after attaining age 50 and 10 years of Service or attaining age 65,
a Member described above may elect to receive those amounts transferred from the Higbie Plan
to the ISP in the distribution forms described herein. Such amounts shall commence, as
selected by the Member, as of the earlier of the Valuation Date next following a Member’s
Termination of Employment on or after his age 65 or any Valuation Date selected by the Member
following the Member’s attainment of age 50 and 10 years of Service but prior to the Valuation
Date next following his age 65:

	 	1.	 	In approximately equal monthly or annual installments over a period not to
exceed 10 years.
	 
	 	2.	 	By purchasing an annuity contract for the benefit of the Member or Deferred
Member from a legal reserve life insurance company selected by the Company. If the
Member elects to receive his benefits hereunder in the form of an annuity and if the
Member is married on the date benefits commence, such annuity contract shall be in the
form of a 50 percent qualified joint and survivor annuity unless the Member, with his
spouse’s consent unless it is established to the satisfaction of the Benefits
Administration Committee that the spouse cannot be located, elects another form of
annuity contract and does not revoke such election within the 90-day period ending on
the first day of the first period for which an amount is received as an annuity. Any
election by a Member or Deferred Member to waive a qualified joint and survivor annuity
must be in writing. The spouse’s consent must be in writing, must acknowledge the
effect of such election and be witnessed by a notary public. A qualified joint and
survivor annuity means an annuity for the life of the Member with a survivor annuity
for the life of the spouse which is not less than 50 percent and not more than 100
percent of the annuity which is payable during the joint lives of the Member and the
spouse, and which is the actuarial equivalent of a single life annuity for the life of
the Member. In the event the Member elects to receive his benefit hereunder in the
form of an annuity other than a joint and survivor annuity with his spouse as
Beneficiary, the value of the benefit payable to the Member under the annuity shall
never be less than 51 percent of the total value of the benefits payable under the
annuity to the Member and his Beneficiary.
	 
	 	 	 	The Member shall, no less than 30 days and no more than 90 days prior to the first
day of the first period for which an amount is received as an annuity, be provided a
written explanation of (i) the terms and conditions of the qualified joint and
survivor annuity; (ii) the Member’s or Deferred Member’s right to make and the
effect of an election to waive the qualified joint and survivor annuity form of
benefit; (iii) the rights of the Member’s or Deferred Member’s spouse; and (iv) the
right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of a previous election to waive the
qualified joint and survivor annuity. If an annuity form other than a qualified
joint and survivor annuity is elected hereunder, such annuity may not be in a form
that will provide for payments over a period extending beyond either the

80

 

	 	 	 	life of the Member (or the lives of the Member and his designated Beneficiary) or
the life expectancy of the Member (or the life expectancy of the Member and his
designated Beneficiary), and such other forms available under the annuity contract
shall be so designed as to provide that at least 50 percent of the reserve that
would be required to provide payments to the Member in the normal form under the
Plan will be will be applied to him over his normal life expectancy.

	B.	 	In the event of the death of a Member or Deferred Member prior to commencing benefits
hereunder, such benefit shall be paid to his Beneficiary as of the Valuation Date coincident
with or next following the Member’s or Deferred Member’s date of death in a single sum payment
or in installment payments, if the Member or Deferred Member has named one Beneficiary and has
so elected, such amount shall be payable in 120 equal, as near as may be, monthly
installments, with any funds remaining at the death of the Beneficiary to go to the
Beneficiary’s estate in one lump sum, or if no Beneficiary survives the Member or Deferred
Member, such amounts shall be payable to the Member’s or Deferred Member’s estate in a single
lump sum. In either case, the Member or Deferred Member may name one or more contingent
Beneficiaries to take in full at such Member’s or Deferred Member’s death in the event the
primary Beneficiary or Beneficiaries have not survived the Member or Deferred Member.
	 
	C.	 	In the event of the death of a Member who is receiving installments pursuant to paragraph
(A)(1) hereof and who has designated a Beneficiary to receive installment payments pursuant to
paragraph (B) hereof, such Member’s installment payments shall continue until the July 31 next
following the Member’s death and thereafter shall be payable pursuant to paragraph (B) above
in 120 equal, as near as may be, monthly installments, with any amounts remaining at the death
of the Beneficiary to go to the Beneficiary’s estate in a single lump sum.

81

 

APPENDIX C

This Appendix C shall apply solely to Members and Deferred Members who formerly participated in the
