Amended August 15, 1988 and

December 21, 1992

	
1.
	
PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
The purpose of the Chemical Financial Corporation Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (the "Plan") is threefold: (i) to reimburse a Corporate Officer of Chemical Financial Corporation (the "Company") for any reduction in his benefit payments under the Chemical Financial Corporation Employees' Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan") which may be caused by the limitations imposed thereon by Section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "415 Limit" or Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "401(a)(17) Limit"); (ii) to provide incentive and reward to such officer through additional retirement income in recognition of this meritorious service and material contribution to the Company' s continued growth and development; and (iii) to assist the Company in retaining and attracting high caliber key executives upon whose efforts the future successful and profitable operation of its business is dependent.

	
 
	
 

	
2.
	
EFFECTIVE DATE

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
This Plan was approved and adopted by the Board of Directors of Chemical Financial Corporation as of May 20, 1985 and amended as of August 15, 1988 and December 21, 1992.

	
 
	
 

	
3.
	
PARTICIPANTS IN THE PLAN

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
The Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors consisting of not less than three members of the Board of Directors (the Compensation Committee). The Plan empowers the Compensation Committee to grant such key employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as shall be selected from time to time by the Committee, participation rights in the Plan.

	
 
	
 

	
4.
	
PENSION PLAN BENEFITS

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
For purposes of this section, "Unrestricted Pension Benefit" means the amount which would have been payable from the Pension Plan if the 415 Limit or 401(a)(17) Limit did not apply, calculated as of the participant' s date of retirement based on the applicable optional payment method. "Restricted Benefit Amount" means the amount actually payable from the Pension Plan calculated as of the participant' s date of retirement based on the applicable optional payment method.

	
 
	
Pension Plan benefits are only available to a participant who is employed by the Company immediately prior to his normal or early retirement from the Company under the terms of the Pension Plan.

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
A participant who retires pursuant to the normal or early retirement provisions of the Pension Plan and elects benefits from the Pension Plan shall, subject to approval by the Committee, receive a monthly supplement from the Plan. The supplement shall be equal to the difference between (i) the Unrestricted Pension Benefit and (ii) the Restricted Benefit Amount, both calculated according to the form of payment elected for his Pension Plan Benefits. In the event the participant' s death and payment election from causes a Pension Plan payment to a beneficiary, a portion of the supplement shall be paid to such beneficiary during the period of any related Pension Plan payment. The portion of the supplement to be paid (if any) shall equal the portion of the participant' s Pension Plan benefit which is continued for such beneficiary(ies).

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
However, upon a Change in Control (as hereafter defined), each participant or his/her recognized survivor shall be paid the present value of the benefit accrued under the Supplemental Plan in the following manner:

	
 
	
a.
	
If an active employee or former employee with a deferred benefit who is eligible to retire, the participant' s benefit shall be calculated as if the participant terminated employment and then retired and elected to receive the 100% Joint Annuitant Option benefit as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Change in Control.

	
 
	
 
	
 

	
 
	
b.
	
If an employee or former employee who is not eligible to retire, the participant' s benefit shall be calculated as if the participant terminated employment and then elected to receive the lump sum equivalent of a vested deferred benefit as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Change in Control.

	
 
	
All amounts shall be paid in a single lump sum within 90 days of the Change in Control unless the participant consents to another form of payment.

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
For purposes of the Supplemental Plan, a Change in Control shall mean a change in control of a nature that would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), whether or not the Company is then subject to such reporting requirement; provided that, without limitation, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) any individual, partnership, firm, corporation, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity, or any syndicate or group deemed to be a person under Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in rule 13D-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20 percent or more the of the combined voting power of the Company' s then outstanding securities entitled to vote in the election of directors of the Company; or (ii) during any

-2-

	
 
	
period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the adoption of thisamendment), individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors and any new directors whose election by the Board of Directors or nomination for election by the Company' s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters (3/4) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof.

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
For purposes of this lump sum payment in the event of a Change in Control, the present value of the accrued benefit shall be calculated using such actuarial assumptions as the Compensation Committee shall adopt from time to time.

	
 
	
 

	
5.
	
ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee. The Committee shall have all such powers that may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan in the absence of any action by the Board, including without limitation, the power to delegate administrative matters to other persons, to construe and interpret the Plan, to adopt and revise the rules, regulations and forms relating to and consistent with the Plan' s terms and to make any other determinations which it deems necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the Plan provided, however, that the right and power to amend and/or terminate the Plan are reserved exclusively to the Board. Subject to the foregoing, all decisions and determinations by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive as to all parties including, without limitation, the Company, any participant hereunder and all other employees and persons.

	
 
	
 

	
6.
	
SOURCE OF BENEFIT PAYMENTS

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
No fund or other assets of the Company shall be segregated and attributable to any benefit payments to be made at a later time, as herein above provided, but rather benefit payments under the Plan shall be made from the general assets of the company at the time any such payment becomes due and payable. Benefit payments under the Plan are to be taken as deductions for income tax purposes in the Company' s fiscal year that they are actually made. At such time as any benefit payments are made, it shall be determined by the Company whether any portion thereof is allocable to any affiliates(s) of the Company because of their recipient having also served as a Corporate Officer of such affiliate(s); and, if such is the case, the Company may elect to obtain reimbursement from such affiliate(s) as appropriate, for such allocable portion. No participant or surviving spouse or beneficiary thereof shall have any proprietary rights of any nature whatsoever with respect to any benefit payments, unless and until such time a benefit payment is made to such participant or the surviving spouse or beneficiaries thereof, and then only as to the amount of such payment.

NON-ALIENATION OF PAYMENTS

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
Any benefits payable under the Plan shall not be subject in any manner to alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment or encumbrance of any kind, by will, or by inter vivos instrument. Any attempt to alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber any such payment, whether currently or thereafter payable, shall not be recognized by the Committee or the Company. Any benefit payment due hereunder shall not in any manner be liable for, or subject to, the debts or liabilities of any participant or the surviving spouse or beneficiary thereof, as the case may be.

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
If any such participant, surviving spouse or beneficiary shall attempt to alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber any benefit payments to be made to that person under the Plan or any part thereof, or if by reason of such person' s bankruptcy or other event happening at any time, such payments would devolve upon anyone else or would not be enjoyed by such person, then the Committee, in its discretion, may terminate such person' s interest in any such benefit payment, and hold or apply it to or for the benefit of that person, the spouse, children, or other dependents hereof, or any of them, in such manner as the Committee may deem proper.

	
 
	
 

	
8.
	
INCOMPETENCY

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
Every person receiving or claiming benefit payments under the Plan shall be conclusively presumed to be mentally competent until the date on which the Committee receives a written notice, in a form and manner acceptable to the Committee, that such person is incompetent and that a guardian, conservator, or other person legally vested with the care of his estate has bee appointed. In the event a guardian or conservator of the estate of any person receiving or claiming benefit payment under the Plan shall be appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction, payments may be made to such guardian or conservator; provided that proper proof of appointment and continuing qualification is furnished in a form and manner acceptable to the Committee. Any such payment so made shall be a complete discharge of any liability therefor.

	
 
	
 

	
9.
	
LIMITATION OF RIGHTS AGAINST THE COMPANY

	
 
	
 

	
 
	
Participation in this Plan, or any modifications thereof, or the payments of any benefits hereunder, shall not be construed as giving to any participant any right to be retained in the service of the Company, limiting in any way the right of the Company to terminate such participant' s employment at any time, evidencing any agreement or understanding express or implied, that the Company will employ such participant in any particular position or at any particular rate of compensation and/or guaranteeing such participant any right to receive any other form or amount of renumeration from the Company.

Wherever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine for all cases where they would so apply; and wherever any words are used herein in the singular or the plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or the singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3, each Member who is not an Adjunct Instructor shall have his or her Salary reduced by 2%, and that amount shall be contributed on his or her behalf to the Plan by the Company as Pre-Tax Savings until and unless the Member elects in accordance with the procedures and within the time period prescribed by the Committee, to receive that Salary directly from the Company in cash.  This
reduction in Salary shall commence as soon as administratively practicable following (1) the Member's Enrollment Date or (2) the Member's  reenrollment date, as defined in Article III, and shall be applied to Salary that could have been subsequently received by the Member.  The Member may elect, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (b) through (d) below, to increase or decrease the reduction of his or her subsequent Salary, in increments of 1%, down to a total of 1%, or up to an unlimited
total percent, and have that amount contributed on his or her behalf to the Plan by the Company as Pre-Tax Savings.  An election shall be effective with the first payroll period on or after the date as of which the election is to apply or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter.

 

	
  
	
(ii)
	
Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3, each Member who is an Adjunct Instructor may elect, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (b) through (d) below, to have his or her Salary reduced by at least 1%, up to an unlimited total percent, in increments of 1%, and have that amount contributed on his or her behalf to the Plan by the Company as Pre-Tax Savings.

If a Member who is an Adjunct Instructor makes no election pursuant to the preceding provisions of this paragraph, his or her Salary will not be reduced and he or she will receive his or her Salary directly from the Company in cash.

 

	
  
	
(iii)
	
A Member, including a Member who is an Adjunct Instructor, also may elect, subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) through (d) below and in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Committee, to automatically increase the reduction of his or her subsequent Salary annually, in increments of 1%, over a period of one or more years, specifying the month in which each annual increase shall be effective and the amount

Elections specified to be effective in a particular month shall be effective with the first payroll period of that month.  A Member may cancel his or her election to automatically and annually increase the reduction of his or her subsequent Salary at any time.

 

	
  
	
(iv)
	
A Member who elects to receive the 2% of Salary described in the above paragraph (i) or who receives the Salary described in the above paragraph (ii) directly from the Company in cash, may elect at a later date, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (b) and (d) below, to have his or her subsequent Salary reduced by at least 1%, or up to an unlimited total percent, in increments of 1%, and have that amount contributed

Such catch-up contributions shall not be taken into account for purposes of
the provisions of the Plan implementing the required limitations of Sections 402(g) and 415 of the Code.  The Plan shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the provisions of the Plan implementing the requirements of Sections 401(k)(3), 401(k)(11), 401(k)(12), 410(b), or 416 of the Code, as applicable, by reason of the making of such catch-up contributions.

(vii)
	
A Member's Pre-Tax Savings shall consist of the following:

 

	
  
	
(A)
	
Basic Pre-Tax Savings – Contributions under this Section that are not in excess of 5% of the Member's Salary for the payroll processing period for which the contributions are made shall be known as Basic Pre-Tax Savings and shall be credited to his or her Pre-Tax Investment Account; and

 

	
  
	
(B)
	
Supplemental Pre-Tax Savings – Contributions under this Section, that are in excess of the maximum allowed under the preceding subparagraph (A) shall be known as Supplemental Pre-Tax Savings and shall be credited to a Member's Pre-Tax Investment Account.

In no event shall the Member's Pre-Tax Savings and similar contributions made on his or her behalf by the Company or an Associated Company to all plans, contracts, or arrangements subject to the provisions of Section 401(a)(30) of the Code in any calendar year exceed the applicable dollar amount under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code, other than as provided at Section 4.1(a)(vi).  Except as provided
at Section 4.1(a)(vi), if a Member's Pre-Tax Savings in a calendar year reach that dollar limitation, his or her election of Pre-Tax Savings for the remainder of the calendar year will be canceled.  As of the first payroll period of the calendar year following that cancellation, the Member's election of Pre-Tax Savings shall again become effective in accordance with his or her previous election.

 

6. Effective January 1, 2008, Sections 4.1(c) and (d) are amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
(c)
	
In the event that the sum of the Pre-Tax Savings and similar contributions to any other qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Company or an Associated Company exceeds the dollar limitation in Section 4.1(b) for any calendar year, the Member shall be deemed to have elected a return of Pre-Tax Savings in excess of that limit ("excess deferrals") from this Plan.  The excess deferrals, together
with investment income thereon for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred, shall be returned to the Member no later than the 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 Pre-Tax Savings previously returned to the Member under Section 6.1 for that calendar year.  In the event any Pre-Tax Savings returned under this paragraph (c) were matched by
Matching Company Contributions under Section 5.1, those Matching Company Contributions, together with investment income, shall be forfeited and used to reduce Company contributions.

 

	
  
	
(d)
	
If a Member makes tax-deferred contributions under another qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an employer other than the Company or an Associated Company for any calendar year and those contributions when added to his or her Pre-Tax Savings exceed the dollar limitation under Section 4.1(b) for that calendar year, the Member may allocate all or a portion of those excess deferrals to this Plan.  In
that event, the excess deferrals, together with investment income thereon for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred, shall be returned to the Member no later than the April 15 following the end of the calendar year in which the excess deferrals were made.  However, the Plan shall not be required to return excess deferrals unless the Member notifies the Plan Committee, in writing, by March 1 of that following calendar year, of the amount of the excess deferrals allocated to this Plan.  The
amount of any such excess deferrals to be returned for any calendar year shall be reduced by any Pre-Tax Savings previously returned to the Member under Section 6.1 for that calendar year.  In the event any Pre-Tax Savings returned under this paragraph (d) were matched by Matching Company Contributions under Section 5.1, those Matching Company Contributions, together with investment income thereon for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred, shall be forfeited and used to reduce Company contributions.

 

7. Effective January 1, 2009, a new Section 4.3(c) is added to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
(c)
	
If a Member who is treated as having Terminated Employment due to performance of military service described in Section 3401(h)(2)(A) of the Code elects, pursuant to Section 11.1(b), to have his or her Pre-Tax Investment Account distributed to him during the performance of that service, his or her Pre-Tax Savings will be suspended for the six-month period following the distribution.

 

-3-

 

8. Effective January 1, 2009, Section 4.7(b) is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
(b)
	
Without regard to any limitations on contributions set forth in this Plan, but subject to Section 4.3(c), a Member who is credited with Service because of a period of service in the uniformed services of the United States may elect to contribute to the Plan the Pre-Tax Savings that could have been contributed to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan had he or she remained continuously employed
by the Company throughout that period of absence ("make-up contributions").  The amount of make-up contributions shall be determined on the basis of the Member's Salary in effect immediately prior to the period of absence and the terms of the Plan at that time.  Any Pre-Tax Savings so determined shall be limited as provided in Sections 4.1 and 5.1 with respect to the Plan Year or Plan Years to which the contributions relate rather than the Plan Year or Plan Years in which payment is made.  Any
payment to the Plan described in this paragraph shall be made during the period, beginning with the date of reemployment, the duration of which is the lesser of three times the period of absence or five (5) years.  Earnings (or losses) on make-up contributions shall be credited commencing with the date the make-up contribution is made in accordance with the provisions of Articles III and IV.

 

9. Effective January 1, 2010, Section 5.1 of the Plan is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
5.1
	
Matching Company Contributions.  The Company shall contribute to the Plan on behalf of each of its Members who elects to make Basic Pre-Tax Savings, a Matching Company Contribution each payroll processing period.  The Matching Company Contribution amount is equal to 100 percent of the first 1 percent, and 50 percent of the next
4 percent, of the Member's Salary contributed to the Plan as Basic Pre-Tax Savings on behalf of the Member during each payroll processing period.  In no event, however, shall the Matching Company Contributions pursuant to this Section exceed 3.0 percent of the Member's Salary while a Member with respect to any Plan Year.  The Matching Company Contributions with respect to a Member shall be paid into the Trust Fund and credited to the Member's Company Matching Contribution Account
as soon as practicable.  No Matching Company Contributions shall be made with respect to a Member's Supplemental Pre-Tax Savings or catch-up contributions described in Section 4.1(a)(vi).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Matching Company Contributions shall not be made during the period the Member's Basic Pre-Tax Savings are suspended as described in Section 4.3(c) or 9.3(d).  Matching Company Contributions are made expressly conditional on the Plan satisfying the provisions
of Section 4.1, 6.1 and 6.2.  If any portion of the Basic Pre-Tax Savings to which the Matching Company Contribution relates is returned to the Member under Section 4.1 or 6.1, the corresponding Matching Company Contribution shall be forfeited, and if the amount of the Matching Company Contribution is deemed an excess aggregate contribution under Section 6.2, the amount shall be forfeited in accordance with that Section.

For
this purpose, a Member who dies while performing qualified military service (as defined in Section 414(u) of the Code) will be treated as having resumed employment with the Employer and then terminated employment on account of death.

 

A Member who shall have performed services for Pre-Distribution ITT at any time between June 30, 1995 and December 19, 1995, shall be fully vested in the balance (determined at the later date), of his or her ESOP Account and his or her Company Matching Contribution Account, except with respect to the portion of his or her Company

except to the extent restored pursuant to Section 11.6 of this Plan on account of subsequent employment with the Company or an Associated Company.

 

Each Member and Deferred Member shall, at all times, be fully vested in his or her Retirement Contribution Account and his or her ITT Floor Contribution Account.

 

11. Effective January 1, 2008, Section 6.1 is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
6.1
	
Actual Deferral Percentage Test.

 

	
  
	
(a)
	
With respect to each Plan Year, the Actual Deferral Percentage for that Plan Year for Highly-Compensated Employees who are Members for that Plan Year shall not exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage for that Plan Year for all Non-Highly-Compensated Employees who are Members for that Plan Year multiplied by 1.25.  If the Actual Deferral Percentage for those Highly-Compensated Employees does not meet the foregoing
test, the Actual Deferral Percentage for such Highly-Compensated Employees for that Plan Year may not exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage for that Plan Year for all Non-Highly-Compensated Employees who are Members for that Plan Year by more than two percentage points, and the Actual Deferral Percentage for those Highly-Compensated Employees for the Plan Year may not be more than 2.0 times the Actual Deferral Percentage for that Plan Year for all Non-Highly-Compensated Employees who are Members for that Plan
Year.

 

If the Committee determines that the foregoing limitation has been exceeded in any Plan Year, the following provisions shall apply:

 

The actual deferral ratio of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the highest actual deferral ratio shall be reduced to the extent necessary to meet the Actual Deferral Percentage test or to cause that ratio to equal the actual deferral ratio of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the next highest ratio.  This process will be
repeated until the Actual Deferral Percentage test is passed.  Each ratio shall be rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of 1% of the Member's Statutory Compensation.  The amount of Pre-Tax Savings Contributions made by each Highly-Compensated Employee in excess of the amount permitted under his or her revised deferral ratio shall be added together.  This total dollar amount of excess contributions ("excess contributions") shall then be allocated to some or all Highly-Compensated
Employees by reducing the Pre-Tax Savings of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the highest dollar amount of Pre-Tax Savings by the lesser of (i) the amount required to cause that Employee's Pre-Tax Savings to equal the dollar amount of the Pre-Tax Savings of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount, or (ii) an amount equal to the total excess contributions.  This procedure is repeated until all excess contributions are allocated.  The amount of excess contributions
allocated to a Highly-Compensated Employee (adjusted to reflect earnings or losses attributable thereto, but only for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred) shall be distributed to him or her in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (c).

 

-5-

 

	
  
	
(b)
	
The Committee may implement rules limiting the Pre-Tax Savings that may be made on behalf of some or all Highly-Compensated Employees so that the limitation under this Section 6.1 is satisfied.

 

	
  
	
(c)
	
Pre-Tax Savings subject to reduction under this Section, together with investment income thereon for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred, ("excess contributions") shall be paid to the Member 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.  However, any excess contributions for any Plan Year shall be reduced by any Pre-Tax Savings previously returned to the Member under Section 4.1 for that Plan Year.  In the event any Pre-Tax Savings returned under this Section 6.1 were matched by Matching Company Contributions, the corresponding Matching Company Contributions, with investment income thereon for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred, shall be forfeited and used to reduce Company contributions.

 

12. Effective January 1, 2008, Section 6.2 is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
6.2
	
Actual Contribution Percentage Test.

 

	
  
	
(a)
	
With respect to each Plan Year, the Actual Contribution Percentage for that Plan Year for Highly-Compensated Employees who are Members for that Plan Year shall not exceed the Actual Contribution Percentage for that Plan Year for all Non-Highly-Compensated Employees who were Members for that Plan Year multiplied by 1.25.  If the Actual Contribution Percentage for a Plan Year for those Highly-Compensated Employees
does not meet the foregoing test, the Actual Contribution Percentage for the Highly-Compensated Employees for the Plan Year may not exceed the Actual Contribution Percentage for that Plan Year for all Non-Highly-Compensated Employees who were Members for that Plan Year by more than two percentage points, and the Contribution Percentage for those Highly-Compensated Employees for the Plan Year may not be more than 2.0 times the Actual Contribution Percentage for that Plan Year for all Non-Highly-Compensated Employees
who were Members for that Plan Year.

 

If the Committee determines that the limitation under this Section 6.2 has been exceeded in any Plan Year, the following provisions shall apply:

 

	
  
	
(i)
	
The actual contribution ratio of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the highest actual contribution ratio shall be reduced to the extent necessary to meet the Actual Contribution Percentage test or to cause that ratio to equal the actual contribution ratio of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the next highest actual contribution ratio.  This process will be repeated until the Actual Contribution Percentage
test is passed.  Each ratio shall be rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of 1% of a Member's Statutory Compensation.  The amount of Matching Company Contributions made by or on behalf of each Highly-Compensated Employee in excess of the amount permitted under his or her revised actual contribution ratio shall be added together.  This total dollar amount of excess contributions ("excess aggregate contributions") shall then be allocated to some or all Highly-Compensated Employees
in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph (a).

 

	
  
	
(ii)
	
The Matching Company Contributions of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the highest dollar amount of those contributions shall be reduced by the lesser of (i) the amount required to cause that Employee's Matching Company Contributions to equal the dollar amount of those contributions of the Highly-Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of those contributions, or (ii) an amount equal to the total
excess aggregate contributions.  This procedure is repeated until all excess aggregate contributions are allocated.  The amount of excess aggregate contributions allocated to each Highly-Compensated Employee, (adjusted to reflect earnings or losses attributable thereto, but only for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred), shall be distributed or forfeited in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) below.

 

 

-6-

 

	
  
	
(b)
	
To the extent contributions must be paid or returned to a Member under paragraph (a) above, so much of the Matching Company Contributions, together with investment income thereon for the Plan Year during which the excess occurred, as shall be necessary to equal the balance of the excess aggregate contributions shall be reduced with the vested Matching Company Contributions being paid to the Member and the Matching Company
Contributions that are forfeitable under the Plan being forfeited and applied to reduce Company contributions.

 

	
  
	
(c)
	
Any repayment or forfeiture of excess aggregate contributions 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 repayment or forfeiture shall be made within 21⁄2 months of the close of the Plan Year in which the excess aggregate contributions were made.

 

13. Effective January 1, 2010, Section 6.4(a) of the Plan is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
(a)
	
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(a)(vi) and this Section 6.4(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 Associated Company,
shall not exceed an amount that is equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of his or her Statutory Compensation for the year or (ii) $40,000, as adjusted for increases in the cost of living under Section 415(d) of the Code.  The limit referred to in (i) shall not apply to any contribution for medical benefits after separation from service (within the meaning of Sections 401(h) or 419A(f)(2) of the Code), which is otherwise treated as an annual addition.

 

14. Effective January 1, 2009, Section 9.1 of the Plan is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
9.1
	
General Conditions for Withdrawals.  Subject to the restrictions set forth below, at any time before Termination of Employment, a Member may request a withdrawal of any amount from his or her Accounts in accordance with the administrative procedures and within the time period prescribed by the Committee.  Any such withdrawal shall be payable
only in cash and shall be in accordance with the conditions of Section 9.2, 9.3, or 9.4.  No more than two withdrawal requests of any kind, including hardship, shall be permitted each calendar year. For purposes of this Article IX, a Member's Accounts shall be valued as of the applicable Valuation Date.  Amounts to be withdrawn and distributed to Members will not participate in the investment experience of the Plan after that Valuation Date.  Withdrawn amounts generally
shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Valuation Date.  If a Member has Accounts in more than one Fund, the amount withdrawn shall be prorated among the Funds based on their respective values.

 

15. Effective August 25, 2005, a new Section 10.13 is added to the Plan to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
10.13
	
Delay of Repayment for Qualified Hurricane Individuals.  Pursuant to Section 1400Q(c) of the Code, in the case of a "qualified individual" (as defined at Section 1400Q(c)(3)(A) of the Code) with an outstanding loan on or after the "qualified beginning date" (as defined at Section 1400Q(c)(4) of the Code), if the due date for any loan repayment
occurs during the period beginning on the qualified beginning date and ending on December 31, 2006, the due date shall be delayed for one year, any subsequent repayments shall be adjusted to reflect the delay in the due date and any interest accruing during the delay, and the period of delay shall be disregarded in determining the 5-year period and term of the loan under Section 72(p)(2) of the Code.

 

16. Effective January 1, 2009, Section 11.1(b) is amended to read as follows:

 

 

-7-

 

	
  
	
(b)
	
In lieu of a distribution as described in paragraph (a) above received before May 16, 2008, a Member or Deferred Member whose Vested Share exceeds $1,000 (as determined under Section 11.9) may, in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Committee, elect to have the distribution of his or her Vested Share commence as of any Valuation Date coincident with or following his or her Termination of Employment
that is before the date described in paragraph (a) above.  In lieu of a distribution as described in paragraph (a) above received after May 15, 2008, a Member or Deferred Member whose Vested Share exceeds $5,000 (as determined under Section 11.9) may, in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Committee, elect to have the distribution of his or her Vested Share commence as of any Valuation Date coincident with or following his or her Termination of Employment that is before
the date described in paragraph (a) above.  A Member performing military service described in Section 3401(h)(2)(A) of the Code will be treated as having Terminated Employment during the performance of the service for the purpose of electing to have a distribution of his or her Pre-Tax Investment Account.  However, a Member or Deferred Member whose Vested Share does not exceed $1,000 (as determined under Section 11.9) before May 16, 2008 or $5,000 (as determined under Section 11.9)
after May 15, 2008 shall receive distribution of his or her Vested Share as described in Section 11.3.

 

17. Effective January 1, 2010, the first paragraph of Section 11.7 is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
11.7
	
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 IX or this Article XI that is determined by the Committee to be an "eligible rollover distribution," the distributee may elect, at the time and in a manner prescribed by
the Committee for that purpose, to have the Plan make a "direct rollover" of all or part of the withdrawal or distribution to an "eligible retirement plan" that accepts such rollovers.  Further, a non-spouse Beneficiary who is a "designated beneficiary" (as defined in Section 401(a)(9)(E) of the Code) of a Member may elect to have any portion of a distribution payable to him or, to the extent provided in rules prescribed by the Secretary, payable to a trust maintained for his or her benefit, transferred
in a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer to an individual retirement plan described in Section 402(c)(8)(B)(i) or (ii) of the Code established for the purpose of receiving the distribution on behalf of the Beneficiary.  The following definitions apply to the terms used in this Section 11.7:

 

18. Effective January 1, 2007, Section 11.7(b) is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
(b)
	
"Eligible rollover distribution" is any withdrawal or distribution of all or any portion of a Member's or Deferred Member's Vested Share owing to the credit of a distributee, except that the following distributions shall not be eligible rollover distributions:  (i) any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal 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) the portion of a distribution not includible in gross income, (iv) any hardship distribution and (v) any other distribution that is not an eligible rollover distribution under the Code or regulations thereunder.  A portion of a distribution shall not fail to be an eligible rollover distribution merely because the portion consists of after-tax employee contributions that are not
includible in gross income.  However, the portion of an eligible rollover distribution consisting of after-tax employee contributions that are not includible in gross income may be transferred only to an individual retirement account or annuity described in Section 408(a) or (b) of the Code, or to a qualified defined contribution or defined benefit plan described in Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code or an annuity contract described in Section 403(b) of the Code that agrees to separately
account for amounts so transferred, including separately accounting for the portion of such distribution that is includible in gross income and the portion of such distribution that is not so includible.

 

19. Effective January 1, 2008, Section 11.7(c) is amended to read as follows:

 

	
  
	
(c)
	
"Eligible retirement plan" means any of the following that accepts an eligible rollover distribution:  subject to the applicable requirements of Section 408A of the Code, a Roth IRA described in Section 408A of the Code; an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code; an individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code; an annuity plan described in Section
403(a) of the Code; a qualified plan described in Section 401(a) of the Code; an annuity contract described in Section 403(b) of the Code; and an eligible plan under Section 457(b) of the Code, which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state and which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan.

 

20. Effective January 1, 2009, a new Section 18.7 is added to read as follows:

 

 

-8-

 

	
  
	
18.7
	
Special Rule for 2009.  Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Article XVIII, a Member or Beneficiary who would have been required to receive required minimum distributions for 2009 but for the enactment of Section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code ("2009 RMDs"), and who would have satisfied that requirement by receiving distributions that
are equal to the 2009 RMDs, will not receive those distributions for 2009 unless the Member or Beneficiary chooses to receive the distributions.  Members and Beneficiaries described in the preceding sentence will be given the opportunity to elect to receive the distributions described in the preceding sentence.

 

In addition, notwithstanding the provisions of the Plan providing for direct rollovers, and solely for purposes of applying the direct rollover provisions of the Plan, 2009 RMDs will be treated as eligible rollover distributions on or after June 8, 2009.  Prior to this date, a direct rollover was offered only for distributions
that would be eligible rollover distributions without regard to Section 401(a)(9)(H).

 

A Member or Beneficiary who would have been required to receive 2009 RMDs but for the enactment of Section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code, and who would have satisfied that requirement by receiving distributions in one or more payments in a series of substantially equal distributions (that include the 2009 RMDs) made at least annually and
expected to last for the life (or life expectancy) of the Member, the joint lives (or joint life expectancy) of the Member and the Member's designated Beneficiary, or for a period of at least 10 years ("Extended 2009 RMDs"), will receive those distributions for 2009 unless the Member or Beneficiary chooses not to receive such distributions.

 

For purposes of applying the direct rollover provisions of the Plan, Extended 2009 RMDs are not treated as eligible rollover distributions.

 

Subject to the timing requirements outlined in applicable rules and regulations, the Plan will accept rollovers of 2009 RMDs and Extended 2009 RMDs distributed from the Plan.  However, such amounts will be accepted from terminated Members only if the Plan otherwise allows terminated Members to make rollover contributions to the
Plan.

 

21. Except as modified in this Second Amendment, the Plan shall remain unchanged.

 

  

-9-

  

 

This Second Amendment of ESI 401(k) Plan is executed this 17 day of December, 2009.
