amended) (other than the Company, the Partnership, any of their respective Subsidiaries, an employee benefit plan maintained by the Company, the Partnership or any of their respective Subsidiaries or a “person” that, prior to such

ARTICLE II

AND PARTICIPATION

Service Provider, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, including without limitation, restrictions as to the timing of Initial Deferral Elections. If a Participant receives a distribution of any portion of such Participant’s Account
pursuant to Section 6.1(e) hereof, such Participant shall cease to be an Eligible Service Provider for purposes 

  
 6 

	 	
of making deferrals following such distribution unless and until re-designated by the Committee as an Eligible Service Provider. 

 

	2.2	Participation. An Eligible Service Provider shall become a Participant in the Plan by submitting a valid Election to the Committee (or its designee) in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof.

 ARTICLE III 

DEFERRAL ELECTIONS; INVESTMENT ELECTIONS 
  

	3.1	Elections to Defer Salary, Commission and/or Bonus. 

  

	 	a)	Initial Deferral Election. Each Eligible Service Provider shall be permitted to make an Initial Deferral Election during the Initial Election Period applicable to such Eligible Service Provider by submitting to
the Committee (or its designee) an Election Form on or prior to the last day of such Eligible Service Provider’s Initial Election Period. If an Employee’s Initial Election Period expires prior to the time at which such Employee becomes an
Eligible Service Provider under this Plan (whether due to prior eligibility under a Company Account Plan or otherwise), then such Employee shall not be permitted to defer any Compensation under this Plan until the first Subsequent Election Period
occurring on or after the date on which such Employee becomes an Eligible Service Provider under this Plan (including any such Subsequent Election Period that coincides with the period which would have constituted such Eligible Service
Provider’s Initial Deferral Period under this Plan, but for such individual’s prior eligibility under a Company Account Plan). If a Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election is not made with respect to any subsequent Plan Year under this
Article III, an Eligible Service Provider’s Compensation with respect to such subsequent Plan Year will not be deferred under the Plan. 

  

	 	b)	Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Elections. Each Eligible Service Provider shall be permitted to make a Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election in any Subsequent Election Period during which such individual remains
an Eligible Service Provider by submitting to the Committee (or its designee) an Election Form on or prior to the last day of the applicable Subsequent Election Period. Elections contained in a Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election shall apply only
to Compensation earned in the Plan Year following the year in which such Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Elections are made (or, to the extent permitted by the Committee in its discretion, with respect to any Compensation that constitutes
Performance-Based Compensation, during the Plan Year in which such Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Elections are made, provided that such Elections are made more than six (6) months prior to the end of the applicable performance period) and
shall, in no event, modify the terms or conditions of deferrals or the time or form of distributions subject to prior Elections that have previously become irrevocable. If an Eligible Service Provider’s Initial Election Period occurs, in part
or in whole, during any period which would constitute a Subsequent Election Period for such Eligible Service Provider had it occurred after such Eligible Service Provider’s Initial Election Period, then such Eligible Service Provider shall, as
determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, be permitted to make either (i) a single Election with respect to amounts covered by both the Initial and Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Elections, or (ii) separate Initial and Subsequent
Plan-Year Deferral Elections with respect to amounts deferrable and/or distributable under each such Election, in either case, by timely submitting the appropriate Election Form(s) to the Committee (or its designee). 

 

	 	c)	 Re-Deferral Elections. Participants may re-defer amounts previously deferred under an Initial or Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election up to
one time per Plan Year by completing and submitting to the Committee a new Election Form in accordance with any rules or policies issued by the Committee with regard to such re-deferrals, provided, however, that (i) such
re-deferral 

  
 7 

	 	
elections may only be made prior to such time as a Participant ceases to be an Employee, (ii) any such re-deferral must be made at least one (1) year prior to the first date on which
any amounts subject to the re-deferral Election would otherwise be paid, absent such re-deferral, (iii) such re-deferral election shall not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the re-deferral election is
made, (iv) the payment with respect to which such re-deferral election is made must be deferred for an additional period of not less than five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been paid, and (v) any such
re-deferral must be timely submitted to the Committee (or its designee) on a form (which may be in paper or electronic format) prescribed by the Committee. 

  

	 	d)	Election Forms. Participants shall effectuate Elections (and any re-deferral Elections) by completing and submitting to the Committee (or its designee) a deferral election form (which may be in paper or
electronic format) prescribed by the Committee (such form, an “Election Form”) in which Participants specify, at a minimum: 

  

	 	(i)	subject to Section 3.1(f) hereof, the levels and types of Compensation to be deferred under the Election; 

  

	 	(ii)	the distribution event with respect to the Compensation deferred under the Election, which may include: (i) an In-Service Distribution, (ii) the Participant’s Separation from Service, (iii) the
Participant’s death or Disability, and/or (iv) a Change in Control; 

  

	 	(iii)	to the extent that the Participant elects to receive an In-Service Distribution, subject to Article VI below, the specified year, if any, during which such In-Service Distribution shall be made (if a lump-sum) or begin
(if installments); 

  

	 	(iv)	the form of payment applicable to distributions of the Participant’s Account or Subaccount, which may be either lump-sum or up to ten (10) installments; and 

 

	 	(v)	subject to Section 3.3 hereof, the allocation of deferred Compensation and/or earnings thereon amongst available Investment Alternatives in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 

 

	 	e)	Priority of Distributions. Of the distribution events specified by a Participant in an applicable Election Form, the first such distribution event to occur shall govern the distributions of the amounts subject to
such Election and distributable on such distribution event. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Participant experiences a Separation from Service, dies, or experiences a Disability, or a Change in Control occurs, in any case, prior to the completion of
any In-Service Distribution installment payments which have commenced prior to such Separation from Service, death, Disability or Change in Control, as applicable, amounts subject to such In-Service Distribution Election shall continue to be
distributed in installments in accordance with Section 6.1(a) hereof. 

  

	 	f)	 Deferral Amounts. The Plan shall only be effective with respect to, and Eligible Service Providers may only elect to defer, Compensation earned
on or after January 1, 2014. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Employee who is not an Eligible Service Provider as of the Effective Date and first becomes eligible to participate in any Company Account Plan following the
Effective Date, such Eligible Service Provider may only elect to defer Compensation earned on or after the date on which such Initial Deferral Election takes effect or such later date as may be prescribed by the Company in the applicable Initial
Deferral Election form. Participants may, but are not required to, defer any or all of (i) Salary, (ii) Bonuses and/or (iii) Commissions as prescribed in the applicable Election Form. For the avoidance of doubt,

  
 8 

	 	
Eligible Service Providers are not required to defer any Compensation under the Plan, and do so solely at their own election. 

 

	 	g)	Deferrals Irrevocable. Any Election to defer any Compensation that has not been revoked in a writing submitted to the Committee on or prior to the last day of the applicable Initial or Subsequent Election Period,
as applicable, shall be irrevocable with respect to such Compensation. If an Eligible Service Provider fails to make a timely Election for any reason, then the Eligible Service Provider shall not be permitted to defer any Compensation under the Plan
until the next Subsequent Election Period (unless a prior Election remains in effect with respect to such Participant’s Compensation, in which case such prior Election shall control). 

 

	 	h)	Deferral Effectiveness; Termination. Elections covering Compensation shall be effective with respect to amounts earned during the first pay period beginning after the end of the Initial or Subsequent Election
Period in which such Elections are made or such later date as may be prescribed by the Committee or in the applicable Election Form (except, to the extent permitted by Section 409A, with respect to Performance-Based Compensation in the event
that the Committee determines to allow an Eligible Service Provider to make an election with respect to such Performance-Based Compensation under Treas. Reg. 1.409A-2(a)(8)). Any Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election that is not revoked in a
writing submitted to the Committee (or its designee) on or prior to the last day of the applicable Subsequent Election Period, shall be irrevocable with respect to amounts earned during the deferral period covered by such Subsequent Election Period.

  

	3.3	Investment Elections. 

  

	 	a)	Initial Allocation. Each Participant shall designate in the first Election Form filed with the Committee (or its designee) by such Participant, the initial allocation of such Participant’s deferred
Compensation and any earnings thereon amongst the Investment Alternatives available under the Plan, which allocation shall be designated in increments of whole integral percentage points. As determined by the Committee in its sole discretion,
Participant allocation elections may either be individualized by Subaccount (if any) or may apply generally to all Subaccounts (if any) comprising a Participant’s Account. If a Participant fails to elect Investment Alternatives under this
Section 3.3(a) with respect to some or all of such Participant’s Account balance or fails to elect a new Investment Alternative following the elimination of an Investment Alternative in which any portion of such Participant’s Account
is notionally invested (as provided under Section 3.3(d) below), such Participant shall be deemed to have elected a notional investment in a money-market or similar account selected by the Committee with respect to such amounts.

  

	 	b)	Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Elections. Each Participant who makes a Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election (following any prior Election) may elect to allocate Compensation and any earnings thereon arising
under such Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral Election in the same manner or differently from allocations designated in the preceding Election Form, as indicated by the Participant in the Election Form applicable to such Subsequent Plan-Year Deferral
Election. 

  

	 	c)	 Reallocation. Each Participant may reallocate such Participant’s Account balance (including any earnings thereon) in whole integral
percentage points amongst the available Investment Alternatives, as often as daily, by submitting a form (which may be in paper or electronic format) prescribed by the Committee to the Committee (or its designee) indicating the extent to which such
reallocation applies to (i) any existing Account balances, and (ii) any future Compensation deferrals and earnings thereon. Account reallocations made in accordance with this Section 3.3(c) shall take effect no later than the first
business day following the business day on which a 

  
 9 

	 	
valid reallocation form is received by the Committee (or its designee), unless received by the Committee after 1:00 p.m. (PST), in which case such reallocations shall take effect no later than
the second business day following the business day on which a valid reallocation form is received by the Committee (or its designee). 

  

	 	d)	Investment Alternatives. The Investment Alternatives amongst which Participants shall be eligible to allocate and reallocate their Account balances, future deferrals and earnings on any of the foregoing shall be
selected by the Committee. The Committee may from time to time change the available Investment Alternatives, either by eliminating existing Investment Alternatives, adding new Investment Alternatives, or both, provided, however, that
no such change of available Investment Alternatives shall be made with retroactive effect. The Committee shall communicate any such changes in available Investment Alternatives to Participants as soon as reasonably practicable once known to the
Committee. 

  

	 	e)	Notional Investments. Allocation of Participants’ Accounts amongst the Investment Alternatives shall be for purposes of tracking notional gains and losses on such amounts and shall create no obligation on
the part of the Company, any Trust (or trustee thereof) or any other party to make any actual investments in such Investment Alternatives, whether in accordance with Participant allocations or otherwise. The Company or the Trust (if any) may,
however, in its sole discretion, invest as it deems appropriate in one or more of the Investment Alternatives. 

 ARTICLE IV

 ACCOUNTS 
  

	4.1.	Accounts. The Committee shall establish and maintain (or cause to be established and maintained) a hypothetical bookkeeping account for each Participant for purposes of reflecting Compensation
deferred by such Participant and any notional gains or losses thereon generated by the Investment Alternatives in which such bookkeeping account is notionally invested, as provided herein. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, create (or cause
to be created) one or more Subaccounts under any Participant Account to reflect amounts which may be subject to different distribution schedules or otherwise as necessary or convenient to the administration of the Plan (such hypothetical accounts,
together with any Subaccounts thereunder, the “Accounts”). Except as expressly provided in Section 6.3 hereof (with regard to the Trust), neither the Plan nor any of the Accounts established hereunder shall hold any actual
investments, funds or assets or shall give any Participant or Beneficiary any right, interest or claim in any particular asset of the Company or any Trust, other than that of a general, unsecured creditor. 

 

	4.2	Crediting of Accounts. All Compensation properly deferred by Participants shall be credited to the Participants’ respective Accounts no later than the third business day following the date on which
such deferred Compensation would otherwise have been paid to the deferring Participant. 

  

	4.3	Account Valuation; Statements. The Participants’ Accounts shall be valued periodically, but no less often than monthly, taking into account any increase or decrease in the value of the Investment
Alternatives in which such Accounts are notionally invested (the “Account Value”). No less frequently than quarterly, statements of such Account valuations shall be made available to Participants either electronically or in a paper
format under procedures established by the Committee (or its designee). 

  
 10 

 ARTICLE V 

VESTING 
  

	5.1	Compensation; Earnings. Subject to Section 8.5 below, all Compensation deferred by Participants under this Plan and any notional gains thereon shall be fully vested at all times, except that all such
amounts shall be subject to reduction resulting from notional losses generated by Investment Alternatives in which such amounts are notionally invested in accordance with Participant Elections. 

ARTICLE VI 

DISTRIBUTIONS 
  

	6.1.	Distribution of Benefits. Participants’ Accounts (or Subaccounts) shall be distributed to Participants in accordance with this Section 6.1 based on the distribution event(s) specified in the
applicable Election Form. At the time a Participant elects to defer amounts hereunder, such Participant shall make an election with respect to the form of payment of such deferrals, in accordance with the requirements set forth below or as otherwise
provided by the Committee, by filing an Election Form with the Committee. Lump-sum distributions shall be calculated based on the Account (or Subaccount) Value as of the most recent date, prior to the distribution, on which such Account (or
Subaccount) Value was determined in accordance with Section 4.3 above. With respect to any designation of installment payment distributions, (i) payments shall begin on the initial applicable Payment Date or Change in Control date
described in Sections 6.1(a) through (d) below and shall continue to be paid on each succeeding Payment Date until fully paid in accordance with such Election, and (ii) on each such distribution date, the Participant shall receive a
portion of the Account (or Subaccount) Value allocable to such designation multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which equals one and the denominator of which equals the number of installment payments remaining, including the payment subject to
such calculation. Each such installment payment shall be calculated using the Account (or Subaccount) Value as of the most recent date, prior to such distribution, on which such Account (or Subaccount) Value was determined in accordance with
Section 4.3 above. If no distribution election is made as to the form of payment or if the aggregate Account Value determined as set forth above as of the initial Payment Date or Change in Control date, as applicable, is less than $50,000, the
distribution shall be in the form of a lump sum. This Section 6.1 shall be applied in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 3.1(e) hereof. 

  

	 	a)	In-Service Distributions. With respect to Elections to receive an In-Service Distribution, a Participant may elect to receive his or her Account or Subaccount (determined on a Plan Year basis) in (i) two
(2) to ten (10) annual installments as specified by the Committee in an Election Form, or (ii) a lump sum. Payment shall be made or commence, as applicable, on the Payment Date that occurs during the specified year of such In-Service
Distribution. 

  

	 	b)	Separation from Service. With respect to Elections to commence distributions upon a Separation from Service, a Participant may elect to receive his or her Account or Subaccount (determined on a Plan Year basis)
in (i) two (2) to ten (10) annual installments as specified by the Committee in an Election Form, or (ii) a lump sum. Subject to Section 6.2 below, payment shall be made or commence, as applicable, on the Payment Date that
occurs in the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant incurs a Separation from Service. 

  

	 	c)	 Death; Disability. With respect to Elections to commence distributions upon a Participant’s death or Disability, a Participant may elect
to have his or her Account or Subaccount (determined on a 

  
 11 

	 	
Plan Year basis) paid to his or her Beneficiary in (i) two (2) to ten (10) annual installments as specified by the Committee in an Election Form, or (ii) a lump sum. Payment
shall be made or commence, as applicable, on the Payment Date that occurs in the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant’s death occurs or the Participant incurs a Disability, as applicable.

  

	 	d)	Change in Control. With respect to Elections to commence distributions upon a Change in Control, a Participant may elect to receive his or her Account or Subaccount (determined on a Plan Year basis) in
(i) two (2) to ten (10) annual installments as specified by the Committee in an Election Form, or (ii) a lump sum. Payment shall be made or commence, as applicable, upon, or as soon as practicable after, the consummation of a
Change in Control, based on the Account Value most recently determined prior to such distribution in accordance with Section 4.3 above. 

  

	 	e)	Unforeseeable Emergency. If a Participant experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit an early distribution of that portion of such Participant’s Account
reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need giving rise to the Unforeseeable Emergency, including any taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from such distribution and taking into consideration any funds that may become available
as a result of the termination of such Participant’s existing Election(s) in connection with such distribution, as described below. If the Participant’s Account is comprised of one or more Subaccounts, the Committee shall determine, in its
sole discretion, from which Subaccount such funds shall be distributed. If a Participant takes a distribution pursuant to this Section 6.1(e), such Participant’s existing deferral Election shall immediately terminate with regard to
Compensation not yet earned at the time of such distribution and the Participant shall only be eligible to make future Elections under the Plan as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion and in accordance with Section 409A.

  

	6.2	Specified Employees. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan or any Election Form to the contrary, with respect to any Participant who is a Specified Employee at the time of such Participant’s
Separation from Service, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, the distribution of such Participant’s Account (and all Subaccounts) upon such Separation from Service shall, to the extent required so as not to result in a
prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, be delayed until the date which is six (6) months and one (1) day after the date on which such Separation from Service occurs (such delayed payment date, the
“Specified Employee Payment Date”), provided, however, that to the extent that all or any portion of such Participant’s Account would have been distributed during the six (6)-month period following such Separation
from Service, whether in a lump sum or installments, in either case, without regard to such Separation from Service, such amounts shall continue be distributed in accordance with such schedule without regard to this Section 6.2, and any
remaining balance in such Participant’s Account shall be distributed on the Specified Employee Payment Date. 

  

	6.3	Trust. The Company may, in its sole discretion, establish a Trust for purposes of allocating funds to satisfy the obligations arising under this Plan. The rights of Participants and Beneficiaries (if any)
with respect to any assets so held in Trust (if any) shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the document(s) creating such Trust. 

ARTICLE VII 

ADMINISTRATION 
  

	7.1	 Administration. This Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board, which may, in its sole discretion, subject
to the express provisions of this Plan, delegate its duties 

  
 12 

	 	
and responsibilities to a committee comprised of one or more members of the Board and/or one or more employees of the Company, who shall serve at the pleasure of the Compensation Committee of the
Board to administer the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VII, (i) the Committee may appoint a plan administrator and/or other similar agent without taking formal action pursuant to this Article VII, (ii) the
Committee may delegate the administration of ministerial duties with respect to the Plan to one or more individuals or sub-committees without taking formal action pursuant to this Article VII, and (iii) if the Committee makes any such
appointment or delegation, the plan administrator, other agent and or delegate may act within the scope of its delegated authority without Committee approval of any such act. Appointees, designees and delegates pursuant to the preceding sentence
need not be employees of the Company or members of the Board. References to the Committee throughout this Plan shall be understood to refer to the appropriate administrative body as provided under this Section 7.1 (the
“Committee”), and shall include any appointee, designee or delegate of the Committee, as appropriate. 

  

	7.2	Committee Action. The Committee shall act at meetings by affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Committee. Any action permitted to be taken at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if,
prior to such action, a written consent to the action is signed by all members of the Committee and such written consent is filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Committee. A member of the Committee shall not vote or act upon any matter
which relates solely to himself or herself as a Participant or an Eligible Service Provider. The chairman, chairwoman or any other member or members of the Committee designated by the chairman or chairwoman may execute any certificate or other
written direction on behalf of the Committee. 

  

	7.3	Powers and Duties of the Committee. The Committee, on behalf of the Participants and their Beneficiaries, shall administer the Plan in accordance with its terms, and shall have all powers necessary to
accomplish its purposes, including, but not by way of limitation, the following: 

  

	 	a)	To designate Employees as Eligible Service Providers; 

  

	 	b)	To designate the commencement date of any Subsequent Election Periods; 

  

	 	c)	To select and modify Investment Alternatives in accordance with Section 3.3(d) hereof; 

  

	 	d)	To determine the Initial Deferral Period applicable to any Eligible Service Provider and to determine whether a leave of absence or other break in service or change in role constitutes a Separation from Service or
otherwise affects eligibility under the Plan; 

  

	 	e)	To construe and interpret the terms and provisions of this Plan and to make all factual determinations relevant to the Plan; 

  

	 	f)	To compute the amount and kind of benefits payable to Participants and Beneficiaries; 

  

	 	g)	To maintain all records that may be necessary for the administration of the Plan; 

  

	 	h)	To provide for the disclosure of all information and the filing or provision of all reports and statements to Participants, Beneficiaries or governmental agencies as required by law; 

 

	 	i)	To make and publish such rules, forms, policies and procedures for the administration of the Plan as are not inconsistent with the terms hereof; 

 

	 	j)	 To appoint a plan administrator, other agent and/or one or more sub-committees or individuals to assist with the administration of the Plan and to
delegate to them such 

  
 13 

	 	
powers and duties in connection with the administration of the Plan as the Committee may from time to time prescribe; 

 

	 	k)	To direct and instruct the trustee of the Trust (if the Company establishes a Trust), to the extent the Company is authorized or required to do so under the Plan; and 

 

	 	l)	To take all actions set forth in this Plan document. 

  

	7.4	Construction and Interpretation. The Committee shall have full discretion to construe and interpret the terms and provisions of this Plan, which construction and interpretation shall be final and binding
on all parties, including but not limited to the Company and all Participants and Beneficiaries. 

  

	7.5	Compensation, Expenses and Indemnity. 

  

	 	a)	Compensation. The members of the Committee, including members of any subcommittee and other individuals providing services in connection with the administration of this Plan, shall serve without compensation for
their services hereunder. 

  

	 	b)	Agents, Advisors and Expenses. The Committee is authorized, at the expense of the Company, to employ such legal, financial and tax counsel, as well as any other agents that it deems advisable, to assist in the
performance of its duties hereunder. Expenses and fees incurred in connection with the administration of the Plan, including without limitation the foregoing, shall be paid by the Company. 

 

	 	c)	Indemnification. To the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Committee and each member thereof, the Board and any delegate of the Committee who is an
Employee against any and all expenses, liabilities and claims, including without limitation any legal fees to defend against such liabilities and claims, in each case arising out of any such individual’s discharge in good faith of
responsibilities under or incident to the Plan, but excluding any expenses and liabilities arising out of the willful misconduct of any such individual. This indemnity shall be additional to and not in limitation of any further indemnities that may
be available under insurance purchased by the Company or provided by the Company under any bylaw, agreement or otherwise. 

  

	7.6	Disputes. 

  

	 	a)	Claimants. A person who believes that he or she is being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled under the Plan (hereinafter referred to as “Claimant”) may file a written request for such
benefit with the Committee, setting forth such Claimant’s claim. 

  

	 	b)	 Rendering and Notification of Decision. Upon receipt of a claim, the Committee shall advise the Claimant that a reply will be forthcoming
within ninety (90) days and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such period. The Committee may, however, at its sole discretion, extend the reply period for an additional ninety (90) days. If the claim is denied in whole or in part,
the Committee shall inform the Claimant in writing, using language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth: (i) the specific reason or reasons for such denial; (ii) the specific reference to pertinent provisions of the
Plan, any Election Form(s) or any other documentation on which such denial is based; (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or her claim and an explanation why such material or
such information is necessary; (iv) appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes 

  
 14 

	 	
to submit the claim for review; and (v) the time limits for requesting a review under Section 7.6(c) hereof. 

 

	 	c)	Within sixty (60) days after the receipt by the Claimant of the written notification described in Section 7.6(b) hereof, the Claimant may make a request in writing for review of the determination of the
Committee. Such request must be addressed to the Committee. The Claimant or his or her duly authorized representative may, but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing for consideration by the Committee. If
the Claimant does not request a review within such sixty (60) day-period, he or she shall be barred and estopped from challenging the Committee’s determination. 

 

	 	d)	Within sixty (60) days after the Committee’s receipt of a request for review, the Committee shall review the request, taking into consideration all materials presented by the Claimant. The Committee will
inform the Claimant in writing, in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, of its decision setting forth the specific reasons for the decision and containing specific references to the pertinent provisions of the Plan on which the
decision is based. If special circumstances require that the sixty (60)-day time period be extended, the Committee will so notify the Claimant and will render the decision as soon as possible, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days
after receipt of the request for review. 

 ARTICLE VIII 

MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	8.1	Unsecured General Creditors. Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interest in any specific property or assets of the
Company or any Trust. Any and all of the Company’s assets and the Trust assets (if any) which are attributable to amounts paid into the Trust by the Company shall be, and remain, the general unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company, which
shall be subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors. The Company’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future, and the rights of the
Participants and Beneficiaries shall be no greater than those of unsecured general creditors. It is the intention of the Company that the Plan (and the Trust, if any) be unfunded for purposes of the Code and for purposes of Title I of ERISA.

  

	8.2	Section 409A. To the extent applicable, the Plan, all Election Forms and all other instruments evidencing amounts subject to the Plan shall be interpreted in accordance with Code Section 409A and
Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation, any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date (together, “Section 409A”).
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, any Election Form or any other instrument evidencing amounts subject to the Plan to the contrary, if the Committee determines that any amounts subject to the Plan may be or become subject to
Section 409A, the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan, any Election Form(s) and any other instruments relating to the Plan, and/or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive
effect), or take any other actions as the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt such amounts from Section 409A, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A, in any case, to preserve the intended
tax treatment of the such amounts. 

  
 15 

	8.3	Restriction Against Assignment. Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of any Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in
part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective, and no right or interest of
any Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Participant. When a payment is due under this Plan to a Participant or Beneficiary who is unable to care for his or her affairs,
payment may be made directly to his or her legal guardian or personal representative. 

  

	8.4	Withholding. The Company, the Partnership, and their respective Subsidiaries shall have the authority and the right to deduct, withhold or require a Participant or Beneficiary to remit to the Company, the
Partnership, or one of their respective Subsidiaries an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including without limitation any income and employment tax obligations) required by law to be withheld with respect to
amounts payable under this Plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) for each Plan Year in which a Participant makes a Deferral under Article III, the Company, the Partnership or such Subsidiary shall withhold from that
portion of the Participant’s Compensation that is not being deferred, in a manner determined by the Company, the Participant’s share of FICA and other employment taxes on such amount, or (b) to the extent permitted by
Section 409A, the Committee may accelerate the payment of Compensation deferred by the Participant in order to pay such taxes. 

  

	8.5	Clawback. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, amounts paid or payable under this Plan shall, to the extent applicable, be subject to (a) the provisions of any clawback policy
implemented by the Company, including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, and
(b) any other clawback requirements under applicable law. 

  

	8.6	Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company. 

  

	8.7	Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder to a Participant or Beneficiary will be properly given if delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Participant or Beneficiary at his or
her last post office address as shown in the Company’s records. Any notice to the Committee or the Company shall be properly given or filed upon receipt by the Committee or the Company at such address as may be specified from time to time by
the Committee. Each individual entitled to a benefit under the Plan must file with the Company, in writing, his or her post office address and each change of post office address which occurs between the date of his or her Separation from Service and
the date he or she ceases to be a Participant. Any communication, statement or notice addressed to such individual at his or her latest reported address will be binding upon such individual for all purposes of the Plan. 

 

	8.8	No Right to Continue Service. Nothing in the Plan, any Election Form or any other instrument evidencing amounts subject to the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company, the
Partnership or any of their respective Subsidiaries to terminate any Participant’s employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company, the Partnership or any of
their respective Subsidiaries. 

  

	8.9	Amendment, Suspension or Termination. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, at any time; provided, that no amendment, suspension or termination shall retroactively
reduce any amounts allocated to a Participant’s Account. 

  
 16 

	8.10	Additional Board Authority. The Board or the Committee may, in its sole discretion, with respect to this Plan and all matters arising hereunder, take any action permitted under Treas. Reg. 1.409A-3(j) or
any successor provision thereto, as such provisions may be amended from time to time, including without limitation, terminating or liquidating the Plan, whether or not in connection with a Change in Control, and providing that all amounts
then-contained in Participant Accounts under the Plan shall be distributed to Participants upon, or as soon as practicable after, such termination or liquidation. 

 

	8.11	Governing Law. This Plan shall be construed, governed and administered in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code, ERISA and, to the extent not preempted by applicable federal law, the laws of
the State of California, without regard to any conflict of laws principles thereof. 

  

	8.12	Release. Any payment to a Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims arising under, or with respect to, the
Plan against the Committee and the Company. The Committee may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release in a form prescribed by the Committee. 

 

	8.13	Captions. The captions contained in this Plan are for convenience only and shall have no bearing on the meaning, construction or interpretation of the Plan’s provisions. 

 

	8.14	Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Plan shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Plan, which shall remain in full force and effect.
