MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, hereby establishes this Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), effective July 1, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), for the purpose of assisting Participants in providing tax-deferred savings for themselves and their beneficiaries.  The Plan is amended and restated effective July 29, 2022.
ARTICLE I.  DEFINITIONS
Section 1.01.  Definitions.  The following terms have the following meanings unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:
 (a)    “Account” means the account maintained on the books of the Company and/or pursuant to any Trust Agreement for each Participant, used solely to calculate the amount payable to each Participant (or his Beneficiary) under this Plan.  Separate Accounts shall be maintained on behalf of a Participant to the extent needed to properly administer the Plan and comply with the Participant’s elections.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be a separate Account for Company credits described in Section 3.02(b)(i) (the “Employer Credit Account”).
(b)    “Administrator” means the  Committee identified in Section 17.1 of the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Retirement Savings Plan or, to the extent the administration of the Plan entails setting the compensation of the executive officers of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation within the meaning of its charter, the Compensation Policy Committee of the Board of Directors or, to the extent the administration of the Plan entails setting the compensation of the Non-Employee Directors of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation, the Board of Directors. 
(c)    “Beneficial Owner” or “Beneficial Ownership” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Rule 13d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act.
(d)    “Beneficiary” means the person(s) or entity(ies) designated by the Participant to be the beneficiary(ies) of the Participant’s Account under the Plan.  If a valid designation of Beneficiary is not in effect at the time of the death of a Participant, the estate of the Participant is deemed to be the sole Beneficiary of such Account.  
(e)    “Board of Directors” means the Board of Directors of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation.
(f)    “Bonus” means any type of incentive-based compensation that is payable in cash, whether based on objective and/or subjective criteria, and whether paid on a monthly, quarterly or other periodic basis or on an ad hoc basis, but excluding commissions.  
(g)    “Change of Control” means, and shall be deemed to have occurred if:

4844-5815-6307.3

(i)     Any Person directly or indirectly becomes the Beneficial Owner of more than thirty percent (30%) of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (measured on the basis of voting power), provided that the Person (A) has not acquired such voting securities directly from the Company, (B) is not the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (C) is not a trustee or other fiduciary holding voting securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (D) is not an underwriter temporarily holding the voting securities in connection with an offering thereof, and (E) is not a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Company stock; or
(ii)     The Company merges or consolidates with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation resulting in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company, the other corporation (if such corporation is the surviving corporation) or the parent of the Company or other corporation, in each case outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or
(iii)     Continuing Directors cease to represent a majority of the Board of Directors, where “Continuing Directors” shall mean the members of the Board of Directors immediately after the date this Plan is adopted, and any other director whose appointment, election or nomination for election by the stockholders is approved by at least a majority of the Continuing Directors at such time; or

If a Participant initially becomes eligible to participate in the Plan on a date other than January 1, then the amount of Performance-Based Compensation that may be deferred for such initial year of participation shall be limited to the total amount of such Performance-Based Compensation multiplied by the ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole percentage) of the number of days remaining in the year after the Election Form is filed over the total number of days in the year.
(v)    “Person” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof, including a “group” as defined in Section 13(d) thereof.

(x)    “Retirement” means a Participant’s Separation from Service (for reasons other than cause, as determined in the reasonable, good faith discretion of the Compensation Policy Committee of the Board of Directors or a subcommittee of one or more officers of the Company to whom the Committee delegates authority to make such determinations) after reaching age fifty-five (55) and having completed ten (10)  Years of Service.

Section 2.02.  Termination of Participation.

5
4844-5815-6307.3

must be irrevocable under Code Section 409A shall continue to be made according to such election.  If a Participant terminates service with the Company and subsequently returns to service, he shall be treated as a new employee or other potential Participant for all Plan purposes.
Section 2.03.  Election Forms; Deferral Elections.
  
(a)    Deferral Elections.  An Eligible Employee or Non-Employee Director may make Participant Deferrals by executing and filing with the Administrator an Election Form, subject to the terms and conditions described herein.  
(i)    For individuals who first become Eligible Employees or Non-Employee Directors other than on a January 1, the individual may file an Election Form within the first thirty (30) days after the individual becomes an Eligible Employee or Non-Employee Director, as applicable.  Such deferral shall apply only to Compensation earned after the date the Election Form is filed with the Administrator and shall be irrevocable for the remainder of the calendar year.  
(ii)    For all other Eligible Employees or Non-Employee Directors:
(1)    Prior to December 31 of a year (or such earlier date specified by the Administrator), the Eligible Employee or Non-Employee Director may file an Election Form with respect to Compensation earned for the following calendar year.  The last election filed by December 31 (or such earlier date specified by the Administrator) shall be irrevocable for the following calendar year.   
(2)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may allow an Eligible Employee or a Non-Employee Director to file an Election Form to defer Performance-Based Compensation prior to the date that is six (6) months before the end of the performance period; provided that such election shall be given effect only with respect to the portion of the Performance-Based Compensation that is not then reasonably ascertainable and only if the Eligible Employee or Non-Employee Director has performed services for the Company continuously from the later of the beginning of the performance period or the date the performance criteria were established through the date on which the Election Form is filed with the Administrator.  Such election shall be made by the deadline specified by the Administrator and shall be irrevocable with respect to the Performance-Based Compensation to which it relates.
(iii)    Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, Participant Deferral elections shall not carry over from year to year, and shall not carry over with respect to future Performance-Based Compensation. 
6
4844-5815-6307.3

(b)    Distribution Elections.  Within the same time periods as are specified under subsection (a) above, an Eligible Employee or a Non-Employee Director may file an Election Form specifying the time and form of payment of the Account(s) to which the election applies.  The Administrator may permit an Eligible Employee or a Non-Employee Director to select a different time and form of payment for each type of Account established for the year.  In the absence of an election, Section 4.02(d) shall apply.
(c)    Administrative Rules. The Administrator shall determine the form of the Election Form from time to time.  Upon the filing of an Election Form, an Eligible Employee or Non-Employee Director shall be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and such Election Form. 
Section 2.04. Limits on Deferrals.  The permitted deferral percentage(s) with respect to Participant Deferrals are as follows:
(a)    Base salary: any percentage (in whole or fractional percentages up to one decimal point) from one percent (1%) to eighty percent (80%).
(b)    Bonus (including Performance-Based Compensation):  any percentage (in whole or fractional percentages up to one decimal point) from one percent (1%) to eighty percent (80%).
(c)    Commission:  any percentage (in whole or fractional percentages up to one decimal point) from one percent (1%) to eighty percent (80%).
(d)    Non-Employee Director fees:  any percentage (in whole or fractional percentages up to one decimal point) from one percent (1%) to one hundred percent (100%).
The Administrator may, from time to time, in its sole discretion, prospectively adjust the minimum and maximum deferrals.  
      ARTICLE III.  ACCOUNTS
Section 3.01.  Accounts.  The Company shall establish one or more Accounts on its books for each Participant, as necessary to account for credits to and earnings on such Accounts and to properly administer the Plan.
Section 3.02.  Credits to Accounts
(a)    Participant Deferrals.  The Company shall credit to a Participant’s Account any amounts deferred by the Participant as soon as practicable after the date such amounts would have otherwise been paid to the Participant but for the deferral.  Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the Company shall deduct any amounts it is required to withhold as to such deferred Compensation under any state, federal, or local law for taxes or other charges from the Participant’s non-deferred Compensation.
(b)    Employer Credits; Vesting.  

7
4844-5815-6307.3

(i)    The Company  may credit to a Participant’s Employer Credit Account amounts equal to any matching contributions that the Participant would have received under the Retirement Savings Plan for the year if the Participant had not elected to defer amounts under the Plan.  Should the Company elect to do so, such Employer Credits will be credited to the Participant’s Employer Credit Account as soon as practicable after the calendar year.  The Company also may credit to the Employer Credit Account of a Participant an Employer Credit in an amount determined each year by the Company in its discretion.  The Company shall determine the date as of which such discretionary Employer Credit shall be allocated to the Participant’s Employer Credit Account. A separate Account shall be established for each year for which an Employer Credit is allocated hereunder.  
(ii)    Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or its designees, each Employer Credit Account shall become vested at a rate of twenty-five percent (25%) per year on each of the first four (4) anniversaries of the date such Employer Credit was allocated to such Account, provided the Participant remains in continuous service with the Company.  Upon a Participant’s Separation from Service other than due to Retirement or death, the unvested portion of all of the Participant’s Employer Credit Accounts shall be forfeited.  All of a Participant’s Employer Credit Accounts shall become fully vested immediately upon a Change of Control or upon the Participant’s Retirement or death.
(iii)    The Account(s) to which Employer Credits are made with respect to any year shall be subject to the Participant’s elections as to the time and form of payment made on an Election Form under Section 2.03(b).  In the absence of an election, Section 4.02(d) shall apply. 
(iv)    If the Administrator determines that a Participant is Engaging in Competition, then all Accounts to which Employer Credits have been allocated shall be immediately forfeited as of the date of such determination, even if vested.
(v)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has the ability to vest a portion or all of a Participant’s Employer Credit at its complete and sole discretion. 
Section 3.03.  Earnings on Accounts.  The Account(s) of a Participant shall be credited with an investment return (which may include a fixed rate of interest) determined as if the account were invested in one or more investment funds made available by the Administrator (or which may be based on a fixed rate of interest selected by the Administrator). If the Administrator makes available alternatives for deemed investments or rates of return, then the Participant shall elect among the alternatives in the manner prescribed by the Administrator and such election shall take effect upon the entry of the Participant into the Plan.  Any such investment election of the Participant shall remain in effect until a new election is made by the 
8
4844-5815-6307.3

Participant. In the event a Participant fails for any reason to make an effective election, the investment return shall be based on the return of the default fund (or rate) determined by the Administrator.
Section 3.04.  Periodic Statements of Account.  The Administrator shall provide to each Participant, not less frequently than annually, a statement with respect to each of his Accounts in such form as the Administrator determines to be appropriate, setting forth the amounts credited or debited during the reporting period, the balance to the credit of such Participant in such Account, and other information the Administrator determines is appropriate.
Section 3.05.  Participant’s Rights Unsecured.  The right of the Participant or his Beneficiary to receive a distribution hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company, and neither the Participant nor any Beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any amount credited to his Account or any other specific assets of the Company.  The right of a Participant or Beneficiary to the payment of benefits under this Plan shall not be assigned, transferred, pledged or encumbered.
Section 3.06.  Unfunded Plan.  This Plan is unfunded and is maintained by the Company primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management and highly compensated employees.  Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to its terms shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or Beneficiary, or any other person.
Section 3.07.  Effect of Change of Control.  Notwithstanding the preceding sections of this Article III, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company or any successor entity shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) business days of the Change of Control, deposit a sum equal to the amounts deferred under this Plan (less any amounts already deposited into a trust fund for the payment of such benefits) into a trust fund (the “Rabbi Trust”); provided that the Rabbi Trust shall not be funded if the funding thereof would result in taxable income to a Participant by reason of Section 409A(b) of the Code.  Any payments by the trustee of the Rabbi Trust out of such trust shall, to the extent thereof, discharge the Company’s obligation to pay amounts deferred under this Plan (including any earnings credited thereon), it being the intent of the Company that assets in such Rabbi Trust be held as security for the Company’s obligation to pay amounts deferred under this Plan. Any similar payments made directly by the Company to a Participant pursuant to this Plan will relieve the trustee of the Rabbi Trust of the obligation to make such payments and will relieve the Company of the obligation to fund the Rabbi Trust to the extent of such payments.  In addition, at such other time as determined by the Board of Directors, payments due to be made under the Plan may be paid out of assets transferred by the Company to a trust fund maintained pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Trust Agreement.  A Change of Control, however, will not accelerate or otherwise affect the timing of distributions from Accounts. 
Section 3.08.  Effect of Divestiture.  Effective as of the time of the Divestiture, a Divested Participant shall no longer be permitted to make Participant Deferrals, nor receive Employer Credits, under the Plan, and the Accounts of such Divested Participants will be treated as follows:
9
4844-5815-6307.3

(a)  Accounts Transferred to Buyer or Maintained by Company.  Subject to Section 3.8(c) below, (i) if the buyer of the divested business so agrees, all Plan assets and liabilities with respect to Divested Participant Accounts shall be transferred to the buyer, or (ii) if the buyer does not so agree, then the Company shall continue to maintain all Divested Participant Accounts, and in the case of either (i) or (ii), all Accounts shall be paid out at the times and in the forms that the Participant elected (or according to Section 4.02(d) if no such election was made).
(b)  Timing of Separation from Service.  For purposes of Section 3.8(a):
(i)  Disposition of Assets.  If the Divestiture is a Disposition of Assets, then Divested Participants shall experience a Separation from Service as of the date of their transfer of employment to the buyer unless, in accordance with Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(h)(4), the Company and the buyer agree and specify in writing, no later than the date of the Disposition of Assets, that the Divested Participants will not be treated as having a Separation from Service upon transfer to the buyer for purposes of the Plan (and will only be treated as having experienced a Separation from Service upon subsequent termination from the buyer and its affiliates), provided all Divested Participants are treated consistently and the requirements of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h)(4) are otherwise met.
(ii)  Disposition of Equity.  If the Divestiture is a Disposition of Equity, then Divested Participants will not be treated as having experienced a Separation from Service solely as a result of the Divestiture, and shall only be treated as having experienced a Separation from Service upon termination from the buyer and its affiliates following the Divestiture.
(c)  Termination and Liquidation of Accounts.  Notwithstanding Section 3.8(a), the Company may decide, in its discretion, pursuant to an irrevocable action taken within 30 days preceding or 12 months following a Divestiture, to terminate and liquidate the Divested Participant Accounts in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) provided that (i) the Divestiture would be a “change in control event” with respect to the Divested Participant’s employer under Treas. Reg. 1.409A-3(i)(5) and (ii) all other plans and agreements that are treated as being aggregated with the Plan under Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(c)(2) are likewise terminated and liquidated with respect to the Divested Participants.  The effect of the termination and liquidation is that the Company shall pay out the Account balances of Divested Participants within 12 months of the date the Company takes such irrevocable action.  The Committee shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section 3.8(c), provided that if any Divested Participant is an executive officer of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation, then only the Compensation Policy Committee of the Board of Directors shall have such authority.

ARTICLE IV.  DISTRIBUTIONS
Section 4.01.  Distributions.  All distributions hereunder shall be made promptly by the Company as they become due under the terms of the Plan except to the extent such distributions are made by the Trustee.  Any payment of amounts due Participants or Beneficiaries under the Plan which are made by the Trustee shall be deemed to be payment by the Company for all Plan purposes.  

10
4844-5815-6307.3

Section 4.02.  Time and Form of Distributions.  A Participant may elect to receive (or commence receipt of) the vested balance of his Account:
(a)    Separation from Service.  Upon the Participant’s Separation from Service, in either a lump sum or installments payable over five (5), ten (10), fifteen (15) or twenty (20) years.  The lump sum will be paid or installments will commence, as applicable, during the January that follows the calendar year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs, or if the Participant is a Specified Employee, on the first day of the seventh month after the Participant’s Separation from Service, if later. 
(b)    Anniversary of Separation from Service. Upon any of the first five anniversaries of the Participant’s Separation from Service, in either a lump sum or installments over five (5), ten (10), fifteen (15) or twenty (20) years.   The lump sum will be paid or installments will commence, as applicable, during the January that follows the calendar year that includes the designated anniversary date.  
(c)    Specified Year.  In a specified year, provided that (i) the minimum deferral period for any Account other than an Employer Credit Account shall be three (3) years, and (ii) the minimum deferral period for an Employer Credit Account shall be four (4) years.  If a Participant’s specified year election does not comply with the foregoing minimum deferral periods, then such election shall be automatically revised so that it is deemed to have indicated the earliest permitted year for distribution. The form of payment may be in either a lump sum or installments payable over five (5), ten (10), fifteen (15) or twenty (20) years. The lump sum payment will be made or installments will commence, as applicable, during the January of such specified year.  
(d)    Default Election.  In the absence of an election as to the time and/or form of payment for any Account to which Participant elective deferrals are credited, such Account shall be distributed in a lump sum during the January that follows the calendar year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs, or if the Participant is a Specified Employee, on the first day of the seventh month after the Participant’s Separation from Service, if later.  If a Participant fails to elect the time and/or form of payment for any Employer Credit Account, then such account shall be subject to the same time and form of payment election as the Participant has made with respect to Participant elective deferrals for the same year or, if no such election has been made, or multiple elections have been made, then such account shall be distributed in a lump sum during the January that follows the calendar year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs, or if the Participant is a Specified Employee, on the first day of the seventh month after the Participant’s Separation from Service, if later.
(e)    Further Deferral of Distributions or Change in Form of Payment.  A Participant may elect to further defer a distribution of any Account, or to change the form of payment for such Account, subject to the following:
(i)    The new election may not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made.
11
4844-5815-6307.3

(ii)    The new election must provide for the deferral of the payment for a period of at least five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been made (or, in the case of installment payments, five (5) years from the date the first payment would otherwise have been made). 
(iii)    The new election must be made at least twelve (12) months prior to the original date of the payment (or, in the case of installment payments, twelve (12) months prior to the original date of the first installment payment). 
Any such deferral election must be made in writing on the form prescribed by the Administrator for this purpose.  The Administrator may further limit the availability and frequency of change elections in accordance with rules announced in advance and generally applied to all Participants.  For purposes of this Section 4.02(e), any entitlement to installment payments shall be treated as an entitlement to a single payment.
Section 4.03.  Installment Payments.  If the installment method of payment is elected, then the periodic payments will include earnings adjustments to any remaining balance during the payout period.  After the first payment is made, the remaining installments will be paid in January of each succeeding year.  Annual amounts to be distributed under the installment method are determined by multiplying the amount in the Participant’s Account immediately prior to the payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which is one (1) and the denominator of which is the number of annual payments remaining to be paid (e.g., for 10 installments, 1/10, 1/9, 1/8, etc.).   
Section 4.04.  Unforeseeable Emergency Withdrawals.  If a Participant provides information to the Administrator that is sufficient, as determined solely and conclusively by the Administrator, to establish that Unforeseeable Emergency has occurred, then the Administrator may authorize immediate payment to such Participant from the Participant’s Account, an amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need, taking tax consequences and the extent to which the Participant has exhausted his ability to borrow money under tax qualified retirement plans into account.  Distributions under this paragraph shall be made first from Accounts with the earliest scheduled payment date.
Section 4.05.  Permissible Delays in Distribution.  Notwithstanding any distribution elections made under the Plan, distributions may be delayed in accordance with the following provisions, provided that any such distribution shall be made solely in the discretion of the Administrator without regard to the request, intent or wishes of any Participant or Beneficiary:
(a)    162(m).  Subject to the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(i), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may delay distributions to a Participant to the extent necessary to avoid application of the deduction limitation under Code Section 162(m).
12
4844-5815-6307.3

(b)    Violations of Law. Subject to the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii), the Administrator may delay distributions to a Participant or Beneficiary to the extent that it reasonably anticipates that the distribution, if paid, will violate Federal securities laws or other applicable law.
Section 4.06.  Payments Upon Death of Participant.  In the event of a Participant’s death, the vested balance of the Participant’s Accounts shall generally be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary(ies) in a single lump sum no later than ninety (90) days after the date of death, provided that the Participant’s Beneficiary, estate, or legal representative timely notifies the Administrator of the Participant’s death and provides the Administrator with all information needed to authorize such payment (such as the Participant’s death certificate). To the extent the Administrator cannot make a payment because it has not received such information, then the Administrator shall make such payment(s) to the Beneficiary(ies) as soon as practicable after it has received all information necessary to make such payment, provided that such payment(s) must be completed by December 31 of the year after the date of the Participant’s death in order to avoid additional taxes under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s Beneficiary, estate or legal representative fails to notify the Administrator of the death of the Participant or fails to provide all information needed to authorize the payment, such that the Company is unable to make timely payment hereunder, then the Company shall not be treated as in breach of this Plan and shall not be liable to the Beneficiary, estate or legal representative for any losses, damages, or other claims resulting from such late payment.  If a Beneficiary dies while entitled to receive a distribution from the Plan, the distribution shall be paid to the estate of the Beneficiary.  Beneficiary designations shall be in writing on such form as the Administrator may prescribe for this purpose, and must be filed with the Administrator while the Participant is living to be given effect.  
ARTICLE V.  ADMINISTRATION
Section 5.01.  Administration of the Plan.  The Administrator shall administer and interpret the Plan, and supervise preparation of Election Forms and Beneficiary designation forms, and any amendments thereto.  Interpretation of the Plan shall be within the sole discretion of the Administrator and shall be final and binding upon each Participant and Beneficiary.  The Administrator may adopt and modify rules and regulations relating to the Plan as it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.  If a member of the Administrator shall also be a Participant or Beneficiary, such person shall not participate in any determinations affecting such person’s participation in the Plan.  The Administrator may, from time to time, employ agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees fit, and may from time to time consult with counsel who may be counsel to the Company.
Section 5.02.  Claims and Appeals.   
(a)    Claim Filing.  Any person or entity claiming a benefit, or requesting an interpretation, ruling, or information under the Plan (hereinafter referred to as "Claimant"), shall present the request in writing to the Administrator within one (1) year following the date that such person or entity knew or, exercising reasonable care, should have known of such claim, and the Administrator shall respond in writing as soon as practical, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after receiving the initial claim.  If special circumstances require an extension 
13
4844-5815-6307.3

of the time for processing the claim, the initial ninety (90) day period may be extended for up to an additional ninety (90) days.  If such an extension is required, the Administrator will provide written notice of the required extension before the end of the initial ninety (90) day period, which notice shall (i) specify the circumstances requiring an extension, (ii) a description of any additional material or information required and an explanation of why it is necessary, and (iii) the date by which the Administrator expects to make a decision.
(b)    Denial of Claim.  If a claim is denied, the Administrator shall provide the Claimant with written notice containing: (i) the reasons for the denial, with specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based; (ii) an explanation of the Plan's claim review procedure; and (iii) any other information required by ERISA.  
(c)    Review of Claim.  Any Claimant whose claim or request is denied or who has not received a response within the applicable time period set forth in subsection (a) may request a review by notice given in writing to the Administrator.  Such a request must be made within sixty (60) days after receiving notice of the denial or the expiration of the time period set forth in subsection (a) if the Claimant has not received a response.  Such a request shall then be reviewed by the Administrator which may, but shall not be required to, grant the Claimant a hearing.  On review, the Claimant may have representation, examine pertinent documents, and submit issues and comments in writing. 
(d)    Final Decision.  The Administrator shall provide the Claimant with written notice of its decision on review within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Claimant’s review request or hearing date.  If special circumstances require an extension of the time to process the decision on review, the processing period may be extended for up to an additional sixty (60) days.    If such an extension is required, the Administrator will provide written notice of the required extension to the Claimant before the end of the initial sixty (60) day period.  If the claim is denied, the Administrator will provide the Claimant with a written notice containing the reasons for the denial, with specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based, and all other information required by ERISA.  All decisions on review shall be final and bind all parties concerned.
ARTICLE VI.  OTHER PROVISIONS
Section 6.01.  Amendment and Termination; Acceleration of Distributions.  The Administrator may amend or terminate the Plan without the consent of the Participants or Beneficiaries, provided, however, that no amendment or termination may reduce any Account balance accrued on behalf of a Participant based on deferrals already made, or divest any Participant of rights to which he would have been entitled if the Plan had been terminated immediately prior to the effective date of such amendment; provided, however, this Section shall not restrict the right of the Administrator to cause all Accounts to be distributed in the event of Plan termination, provided all Participants and Beneficiaries are treated in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner.
Section 6.02.  Expenses.  Costs of administration of the Plan will be paid by the Company, except that, following a Participant’s Separation from Service for any reason other than Retirement, the Administrator may deduct a reasonable administrative fee (assessed no 
14
4844-5815-6307.3

more frequently than quarterly) from the balance of the Participant’s aggregate undistributed Accounts.
Section 6.03.  Severability.  If any of the provisions of the Plan shall be held to be invalid, or shall be determined to be inconsistent with the purpose of the Plan, the remainder of the Plan shall not be affected thereby.
Section 6.04.  Binding Upon Successors.  This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation, its successors and assigns, and the Participants and their heirs, executors, administrators, and legal representatives.
Section 6.05.  Not a Contract of Employment.  This Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment between the Company and the Participant.  Nothing in this Plan shall give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discipline or discharge a Participant at any time.
Section 6.06.  Protective Provisions.   A Participant or Beneficiary will cooperate with the Company by furnishing any and all information requested by the Company, in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder, and by taking such physical examinations as the Company may deem necessary and taking such other action as may be requested by the Company.
Section 6.07.  Notice.  Any notice required or permitted under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by registered or certified mail.  Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.  Mailed notice to the Administrator shall be directed to the address for the headquarters of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation.  Mailed notice to a Participant or Beneficiary shall be directed to the individual's last known address in the Company's records.
Section 6.08.  Nonassignability. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and non-transferable, and no part of the amounts payable hereunder shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant's or any other person's bankruptcy or insolvency other than (a) to a Participant’s Beneficiary pursuant to the provisions herein, (b) pursuant to a domestic relations order deemed legally sufficient by the Administrator or (c) by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
Section 6.09.  Offset.  If, at the time a payment is due hereunder, the Company determines that the Participant is indebted or obligated to the Company, then the payment to be made to or with respect to such Participant (including a payment to the Participant’s Beneficiary) may, at the discretion of the Company, be reduced by the amount of such indebtedness or 
15
4844-5815-6307.3

obligation; provided, however, that an election by the Company to not reduce any such payment shall not constitute a waiver of its claim for such indebtedness or obligation.
Section 6.10.  Governing Law.  This Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of Florida, without reference to conflict of law principles thereof, to the extent not preempted by federal law.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation has caused this Plan to be executed by its duly authorized officers.
