Defined Benefit Plan Fraction does not exceed 1.0 for any Limitation Year; provided, that this limitation shall only apply if and to the extent that the benefits under the Employer’s Retirement Plan or any other defined contribution plan
are not limited so that such sum is not exceeded. In the case of a Participant who is entitled to contributions under any other qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer, such Participant’s Annual Additions under such other

 (vi) Maximum Permissible Amount: The maximum Annual
Addition that may be contributed or allocated to a Participant’s Account under the Plan for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of: (a) $30,000, as adjusted under Section 415(d) of the Code or (b) 25% of the Participant’s Total
Compensation for the

401(h) of the Code) which is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition under Section 415(l)(1) of the Code. 
  

	16.	 	Section 9.3 - Section 9.3 shall be amended, effective as of July 1, 2001, to read in its entirety as follows: 

  
 Upon the termination of employment of a Participant or
Former Participant for any reason other than death or Disability, that portion of the balance credited to his Account which is not vested at the date of such termination shall be forfeited upon the earliest of (a) full distribution of the vested
portion of the Account or (b) the fifth anniversary following the date of re-employment. The proceeds of such forfeited amounts, reduced by any amounts required to be credited because of re-employment pursuant to section 9.4, shall be treated as
Forfeitures and shall be disposed of as provided in section 9.5. If no portion of the balance credited to an Account of a Participant or Former Participant is vested as of the date of his termination of employment, a distribution of $0, representing
full distribution of the Account, shall be deemed to have been made to the Participant or Former Participant on such date. 
  

	17.	 	Section 9.4 - Section 9.4 shall be amended, effective as of July 1, 2001, to read in its entirety as follows: 

  
 If an Employee forfeited any amount of the balance credited
to his Account upon his termination of employment, and is re-employed by any Affiliated Employer prior to the occurrence of five consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, then: 
  
 (a) an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares forfeited, determined as of the date of
forfeiture; and 
  
 (b) the amount credited to
his General Investment Account that was forfeited, determined as of the date of forfeiture; 
  
 shall be credited back to his Account; provided, however, that the Employee repays the amount distributed to him from his Account as a result of such termination no later than the fifth anniversary of his
re-employment or the end of the fifth Plan Year to begin after such distribution, whichever is earlier. Such amounts to be re-credited shall be obtained from the proceeds of the forfeited amounts redeemed pursuant to section 9.3 during the Plan Year
in which the repayment is made, unless such proceeds are insufficient, in which case the Employee’s Employer shall make an additional contribution in the amount of such deficiency. For purposes of this section 9.4, a Participant or Former
Participant who received a distribution of $0, 

 
shall be deemed to have made repayment on the date of re-employment with an Employer. 
  

	18.	 	Section 13.3 - Section 13.3(a)(i) shall be amended, effective as of July 1, 2001, by adding a new sentence at the end thereof to read as follows: 

  
 If an Account of a Participant or Former Participant does not contain any
vested amounts as of the date of his termination of employment with all Affiliated Employers, a distribution of $0, representing full distribution of the Account, shall be deemed to have been made to the Participant or Former Participant on such
date. 
  

	19.	 	Section 13.4 - Effective as of July 1, 1998, the Plan shall be amended by adding the following to the end of Section 13.4: 

  
 (c) If an Employee terminates service, and the value of the
Employee’s vested Account balance is not greater than $5,000, the Employee will receive a distribution of the value of the entire vested portion of such Account balance and the nonvested portion will be treated as a Forfeiture. If an Employee
would have received a distribution under the preceding sentence but for the fact that the Employee’s vested Account balance exceeded $5,000 when the Employee terminated Service and if at a later time such Account balance is reduced such that it
is not greater than $5,000, the Employee will receive a distribution of such Account balance and the nonvested portion will be treated as a Forfeiture. For purposes, of this section, if the value of an Employee’s vested Account balance is zero,
the Employee shall be deemed to have received a distribution of such vested Account balance. 
  

	20.	 	Section 13.5 - Section 13.5(a) of the Plan shall be amended, effective as of July 1, 1997, to read in its entirety as follows: 

  
 (a) Required minimum distributions of a Participant’s or Former
Participant’s Account shall commence no later than: 
  

	 	(i)	 	if the Participant or Former Participant is not a Five Percent Owner at any time during the Plan Year ending in the calendar year in which he attains age 70 1/2, the later of (A) the calendar year in which he attains or attained age 70 1/2 or (B) the calendar year in which he terminates employment with the Employer; or

  

	 	(ii)	 	if the Participant or Former Participant is or was a Five Percent Owner at any time during the Plan Year ending in the calendar year in which he attains age 70 1/2, the later of (A) the calendar year in which he attains age 70 1/2 or (B) the calendar year in which he first becomes a Five Percent Owner. 

	21.	 	Section 16.6 - Section 16.6 shall be amended, effective as of July 1, 1998, to read in its entirety as follows: 

  
 Section 16.6 Required Aggregation

any Affiliated Employers that cover Key Employees; and (c) any other qualified plans currently maintained (or previously maintained and terminated within the five year period ending on the Determination Date) by the Employer and any Affiliated
Employers that cover Key Employees that are required to be aggregated for purposes of satisfying the requirements of sections 401(a)(4) or 410(b) of the Code. 
  

	22.	 	Section 17.8 - Section 17.8 shall be amended, effective as of July 1, 1997, by replacing the phrase “of a type historically performed by employees in the business field”
