 (ii) 3%. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant incurs a Termination Date on or after attaining age 65 and has at least three Years of Service on such Termination Date, then the Participant’s annual benefit amount shall not be reduced by this

 4.3 Alternative Forms of Benefit Payments. 
 (a) A Participant may elect to receive the Actuarial Equivalent of his or her Supplemental Retirement Benefit in the form of: (i) a five year
certain annuity; or (ii) ten year certain annuity. The Participant must make this election within 30 days following the date on which he or she initially becomes a Participant in the Plan. If the Participant does not make this election, the

that is no sooner than five years after the distribution date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefits; and 
 (iii) The election must be made at least 12 months prior to the distribution date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefits. 
 For purposes of applying the provisions of this Section 4.3(b), a Participant’s election to change the form of payment for such benefits shall not be considered to be made until the date on which the
election becomes irrevocable. Such an election shall become irrevocable no later than the date that is 12 months prior to the distribution date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefits. Subject to the requirements of this
Section 4.3(b), the election form most recently accepted by the Administrator that has become effective shall govern the form of payout of such benefits. 
 4.4 Commencement of Benefit Payments. 
 (a) The Company shall begin paying the Participant or Beneficiary (if applicable) his or her Supplemental Retirement Benefit, less any applicable payroll, withholding or other taxes, on the later of: (i) 30th day following the Termination Date; (ii) a date certain elected by the Participant in accordance with Section 4.4(b) below; and (iii) the first

 (b) A Participant may elect to receive his or her Supplemental Retirement Benefit, less any
applicable payroll, withholding or other taxes, on a date certain. The Participant must make this election within 30 days following the date on which he or she initially becomes a Participant in the Plan. If the Participant does not make this
election, the Supplemental Retirement Benefit shall be paid on the 30th day following the Termination Date (subject to subpart (iii) in
Section 4.4(a) above). 
 (c) A Participant may elect to postpone the date elected above in accordance with the following criteria:

 (i) The election shall not take effect until at least 12 months after the date on which the election is made; 

(ii) The new distribution date for such benefits must be the first day of a calendar year that is no sooner than five years after the
distribution date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefits; and 
 (iii) The election must be made at least
12 months prior to the distribution date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefits. 
 For purposes of applying the
provisions of this Section 4.4(c), a Participant’s election to postpone the distribution date elected for such benefits shall not be considered to be made until the date on which the election becomes irrevocable. Such an election shall
become irrevocable no later than the date that is 12 months prior to the distribution date that would otherwise have 

  

 -7- 

 
been applicable to such benefits. Subject to the requirements of this Section 4.4(c), the election form most recently accepted by the Administrator that
has become effective shall govern the new distribution date of such benefits. 
 4.5 Benefit Payments to Beneficiaries.

 (a) In the event of the death of a Participant, after benefit payments to the Participant have begun, the amount remaining to be paid
shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary in the same form, and payable at the same time, as if the Participant were still living. 
 (b) In the event of the death of a Participant prior to such time as benefit payments have begun, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall receive the Participant’s Supplemental Retirement Benefit in the form elected by the
Participant. 
 4.6 Forfeiture of Benefits. If a Participant engages, directly or indirectly (either as principal,
agent, employee, consultant, stockholder, partner, or in any other individual or representative capacity), in any business activity within the Company’s area of business which is competitive with any business conducted by the Company as of the
Participant’s Termination Date, and if in the opinion of the Administrator, the Participant would reasonably be expected to utilize any confidential information (such as Company trade secrets including business records, actual and prospective
customer and supplier lists, and the like) concerning the Company in connection with such business activity, then any payments due to the Participant from the Plan shall be forfeited, and as a result neither the Company, the Administrator, nor the
trustee of a trust shall be liable to pay the Participant, or any Beneficiary, any benefit under the Plan. 
 4.7 Benefits
Unfunded. The benefits payable under the Plan shall be paid by the Company out of its general assets and shall not be otherwise specifically funded in any manner. Nothing herein contained shall preclude the creation of a bookkeeping
or other reserve for benefits payable through the use of a trust. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 TRUST 
 5.1 Establishment of a Trust. The Company
shall establish a trust, and shall transfer over to such trust such assets as it determines, in its sole discretion, are necessary to provide for the Company’s future liabilities created under this Plan. 
 5.2 Interrelationship of the Plan and a Trust. The provisions of the Plan shall govern the rights of a Participant to receive
distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of such trust shall govern the rights of the Participants and the creditors of the Company to the assets transferred to such trust. The Company shall at all times remain liable to carry out its
obligations under the Plan. The Company’s obligations under the Plan may be satisfied with trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of such trust, and any such distribution shall reduce the Company’s obligations under this Plan.

be paid by the Company accordingly. 
 6.2 Finality of Decisions. The decisions made by and the actions taken by the
Administrator in the administration of the Plan shall be final and conclusive as to all persons, and the Administrator shall not be subject to individual liability with respect to the Plan. Without limiting the generality of this Section, the

 ARTICLE 7 
 CLAIMS PROCEDURES 
 7.1 Presentation of Claim. Any Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant or duly authorized representative of either (such Participant or Beneficiary or duly authorized representative
being referred to below as a “Claimant”) may deliver to the Administrator a written claim for a determination with respect to the amounts distributable to such Claimant from the Plan. If such a claim relates to the contents of a notice
received by the Claimant, the claim must be made within 60 days after such notice was received by the Claimant. The claim must state with particularity the benefit determination desired by the Claimant. 
 7.2 Notification of Decision. The Administrator shall consider a Claimant’s claim within a reasonable time, but not later than
90 days after receipt of the claim by the Plan, unless the Administrator determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If the Administrator determines that an extension of time for processing is
required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the termination of the initial 90-day period. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of 90 days from the end of such initial period. The extension notice
shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Administrator expects to render the benefit determination. Once the benefit determination is made in accordance with the foregoing, the Administrator
shall notify the Claimant in writing: 
 (a) that the Claimant’s requested benefit determination has been made, and that the claim has
been allowed in full; or 
 (b) that the Administrator has reached a conclusion adverse, in whole or in part, to the Claimant’s
requested benefit determination. The Administrator’s notice of adverse benefit determination must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and it must contain: 
 (i) the specific reason(s) for the adverse benefit determination; 
  

 -9- 

 (ii) reference to the specific provisions of the Plan upon which such adverse benefit
determination was based; 
 (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to
perfect the claim, and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and 
 (iv) a description of the
Plan’s claim review procedures set forth in Section 7.3 below and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a) following an
adverse benefit determination on review. 
 7.3 Review of a Denied Claim. Within 60 days after receiving a notice from
the Administrator of an adverse benefit determination, a Claimant may file with the Board a written request for a review of such adverse determination. Thereafter, but not later than 30 days after the review procedure began, the Claimant:

 (a) may submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for benefits; 
 (b) shall be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to
the Claimant’s claim for benefits; and/or 
 (c) may request a hearing, which the Board, in its discretion, may grant. 
 The Board shall take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether such
information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. 
 7.4 Decision on Review. The Board shall
render its decision on review within a reasonable time, and not later than 60 days after the receipt of the Claimant’s review request, unless a hearing is held or other special circumstances require additional time, in which case the
Board’s decision must be rendered within 120 days after the receipt of the Claimant’s review request. If the Board determines that an extension of time for processing is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the
Claimant prior to the termination of the initial 60-day period. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of 60 days from the end of the initial period. The extension notice shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of
time and the date by which the Board expects to render the benefit determination on review. The Board’s decision must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and it must contain: 
 (a) specific reasons for the decision; 
 (b)
reference to the specific Plan provisions upon which the decision was based;

statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action under ERISA Section 502(a) concerning an adverse benefit determination; and 
 (e) such other matters as the Board deems relevant. 
 For purposes of this Article, a document, record, or other information shall be considered
“relevant” to a Claimant’s claim if such document, record, or other information was relied upon in making the benefit determination; was submitted, considered, or generated in the course of making the benefit determination, without
regard to whether such document, record, or other information was relied upon in making the benefit determination; or demonstrates compliance with the administrative processes and safeguards required under ERISA in making the benefit determination.

prerequisite to a Claimant’s right to commence any legal action with respect to any claim for benefits under this Plan.

 ACCELERATED PAYMENTS 
 9.1 Accelerated Distribution in Certain Events. If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefit under this
Plan becomes includable in income under Section 409A of the Code to the Participant prior to receipt, the Participant shall receive an amount equal to the taxable portion of his or her benefit which amount shall not exceed a Participant’s
unpaid benefits under the Plan. Such a distribution shall affect and reduce the benefits to be paid under this Plan.

 10.2 Plan Binding On Successors. The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company), and such successor shall assume and agree to perform this Plan in the same manner
and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform as if no such succession had occurred.

2007-86 
 The capitalized terms below shall have the same meaning as provided in Article 2 of the Plan. 
 Opportunity to Make New (or Revise Existing) Distribution Elections. Notwithstanding the required deadline for the submission of an initial
distribution election under Article 4 of the Plan, the Administrator may, to the extent permitted by Notice 2007-86, provide a limited period in which Participants may make new distribution elections, or revise existing distribution elections, with
respect to amounts subject to the terms of the Plan, by submitting an election form on or before the deadline established by the Administrator, which in no event shall be later than December 31, 2008. Any distribution election(s) made by a
Participant, and accepted by the Administrator, in accordance with this Appendix A shall not be treated as a change in either the form or timing of a Participant’s benefit payment for purposes of Code Section 409A or the Plan. If any
distribution election submitted by a Participant in 2007 in accordance with this Appendix A either (a) relates to an amount that would otherwise be paid to the Participant in 2007, or (b) would cause an amount to be paid to the Participant
in 2007, such election shall not be effective. If any distribution election submitted by a Participant in 2008 in accordance with this Appendix A either (a) relates to an amount that would otherwise be paid to the Participant in 2008, or

 ARTICLE 1 
 Purpose and Construction 
  

	1.1	Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide non-employee directors and a select group of management and highly compensated employees who have contributed to, and
are expected to continue to contribute to, the growth, development and business success of PerkinElmer, Inc. with an opportunity to defer receipt of their compensation in order to build savings. 

  

	1.2	Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to be a plan that is not qualified within the meaning of Code section 401(a) and that “is unfunded and is maintained by an
employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of ERISA Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1). The Plan is also intended to provide
for deferred compensation that is subject to and compliant with the requirements of section 409A of the Code. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with that intent. 

  

	1.3	Effective Date. The Plan is generally effective January 1, 2008, except that the provisions implementing the requirements of section 409A of the Code are
effective January 1, 2005. This Plan replaces the Prior Plan, which remains in existence solely to hold amounts grandfathered from the application of section 409A of the Code to the extent that such amounts were earned and vested as of
December 31, 2004 and not materially modified subsequent to January 1, 2005.

	 	(a)	Elective Deferrals. Except as provided in (b) below, in order to become a Participant in the Plan, each Eligible Executive or Eligible Director shall complete, and the
Administrator shall accept, an election to make Elective Deferrals under the Plan. Such elections shall comply with the requirements of Article 4 below. 

  

	 	(b)	Employer Contributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Eligible Executive shall automatically become a Participant effective upon the earlier of (i) designation by
the Administrator as a Designated Executive or (ii) the time an Employer Contribution is credited to his Account. 

  

	3.2	Termination of Participation. An individual who has become a Participant will remain a Participant until his or her entire Account has been distributed.

  

 -7- 

 ARTICLE 4 
 Deferral Elections 
  

	4.1	In General. The election to defer the receipt of Eligible Compensation shall be made in the form prescribed by the Administrator and shall apply separately to each
type of Eligible Compensation to be deferred. The Administrator may in its sole discretion establish a minimum deferral amount at any time or from time to time, may increase the maximum amount which may be deferred and may establish different
minimum and maximum deferral amounts for different Participants. If no election is made, the amount deferred shall be zero. 

  

	4.2	Timing of Election. 

  

	 	(a)	Generally. A new election regarding Elective Deferrals will be required for each Plan Year. An election form must be delivered, in accordance with procedures established by
the Administrator, before the end of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year for which the election is to be effective, except as provided in paragraphs (b) through (e), below. No election shall be required with respect to Employer Contributions.

  

	 	(b)	Initial Year of Eligibility. To the extent provided by the Administrator, elections for the Plan Year in which an individual first becomes an Eligible Executive or Eligible
Director may be made within 30 days after such individual becomes an Eligible Executive or is elected as an Eligible Director. If an individual first becomes a Participant after the first day of a Plan Year, the election to defer shall only apply to
that portion of the Eligible Compensation which has not yet been earned by the Participant as of the date the election is accepted by the Administrator. 

  

	 	 (c)
	 Certain Forfeitable Rights. With respect to Eligible Compensation that is subject to a condition that the
Eligible Executive provide at least 12 months of vesting service from the date the Eligible Executive obtains a “legally binding right” to such compensation (i.e. the grant date of a restricted stock or performance unit award, to the
extent such compensation is determined to be Eligible Compensation), an election to defer such compensation may, if permitted by the Administrator, be made on or before the 30th day following such date, provided the election is made at least 12 months in advance of the vesting date. 

  

	 	(d)	Performance-Based Compensation. If the Committee determines that Eligible Compensation qualifies as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of section
409A of the Code, the Eligible Employee’s election to defer compensation with respect to such Eligible Compensation may be made at such time as is permitted by Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(a)(8), provided such Eligible Executive is continuously
employed through such date. 

  

	 	(e)	Timing of Elections for 2005. Pursuant to IRS Notice 2005-1, on or before March 15, 2005, Participants may make an election to defer compensation for service performed
on or before December 31, 2005 but which had not yet been paid or became payable at the time of the election. 

  

 -8- 

	 	(f)	Effectiveness. An election shall be effective only upon its acceptance by the Company through transmission to the Vice President-Compensation, Benefits and HRIM or his or her
designee. 

  

	4.3	Irrevocability. An election shall be irrevocable once accepted as final by the Administrator, and may not be revoked changed or altered, except as provided in this
Section 4.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, annual elections made under Section 4.2(a) shall be revocable as defined by the Administrator but no later than December 31, at which point they will become irrevocable.

  

 -9- 

 ARTICLE 5 
 Contributions and Accounts 
  

	5.1	Participant Accounts. The Administrator shall establish an Account on the books and records of the Company to which shall be credited a Participant’s Elective
Deferrals and Employer Contributions. The Administrator may establish one or more sub-accounts to reflect the Plan Year in which such deferral is made and the type of Eligible Compensation (or Employer Contribution) to which such sub account
relates. 

  

	5.2	Vesting. A Participant shall be at all times 100% vested in his or her Account, except as otherwise determined by the Committee. 

  

	5.3	Timing of Credits. 

  

	 	(a)	Elective Deferrals attributable to a deferral in Base Salary shall be withheld from each regularly scheduled payroll in equal amounts, and likewise credited to a Participant’s
Account. 

  

	 	(b)	Elective Deferrals attributable to a deferral of bonus, performance units or an Eligible Director’s annual retainer or stock award shall be withheld and credited to a
Participant’s Account at the time the compensation would have been paid to the Participant, whether or not this occurs during the Plan Year itself. 

  

	 	(c)	Elective Deferrals attributable to a deferral of restricted stock shall be credited to a Participant’s Account immediately prior to such time as the restricted stock becomes
vested. 

  

	 	(d)	Employer Contributions shall be credited to a Participant’s Account within 180 days of the close of the Plan Year to which the contribution relates. 

 

	5.4	Measurement Funds. 

  

	 	(a)	Accounting. The Administrator shall increase or decrease the balance in each Account as follows: (i) by adding the amount of the Participant’s Elective Deferrals
and the amount of any Employer Contributions or other contributions or transfers to the Plan, (ii) crediting or debiting each Account with earnings and losses of the Measurement Funds, and (iii) subtracting distributions made to or on
behalf of the Participant under this Plan. 

  

	 	(b)	 Earnings. The Participant, in any manner permitted by the Administrator, may elect, from time to time, the Measurement Fund in which his or her Account shall
be treated as having been invested. A Participant’s Accounts shall be treated as if invested in accordance with the Participant’s election, as determined by the Administrator, for purposes of debiting or crediting the balance in such
Accounts to reflect the performance of the Measurement Fund. If the Administrator or the 

  

 -10- 

	 	 
trustee of any trust established with respect to this Plan invests any assets in the investments selected as the Measurement Funds, no Participant shall have
any right in or to such investments themselves, and the Participant’s rights shall at all times be only to receive the amount calculated under the terms of this Plan from the Company. 

  

	 	(c)	Company Stock Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any election of the Company Stock Fund cannot be changed, except prospectively with respect to future contributions. In the
case of deferrals of the receipt of Company stock, such deferrals shall be invested solely in the Company Stock Fund. Any amounts deferred representing shares of Company common stock shall be accounted for on a share by share basis, with appropriate
adjustments to reflect changes in the capital structure of the Company, and shall, when distributed, be distributed in the form of common stock of the Company, subject to Section 13.3. Dividends shall be automatically reinvested in the Company
Stock Fund 

  

	 	(d)	Expenses. In the discretion of the Administrator, plan expenses may be allocated to and reduce the balance in Participants’ Accounts. Any such allocation shall be borne
equitably, as determined by the Administrator, among similarly situated Participants. 

  

	5.5	Special Transition Credit. The Account of any Participant who was given the opportunity to make a Transition Election with respect to his or her account under the
Prior Plan shall be credited with an amount equal to his or her account balance under the Prior Plan at the time of the Transition Election. 

  

	5.6	Deferrals from Other Plans. The Committee may direct the Administrator and trustee to accept the transfer of amounts deferred by a Participant under a deferral plan or
arrangement sponsored by the Company, another Participating Employer or by a former employer of the Participant. 

  

	5.7	Employment Taxes. For each Plan Year, arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator (including withholding from other compensation payable to the Participant) shall
be made for the payment of the Participant’s share of any employment or other taxes payable with respect to Elective Deferrals, Employer Contributions and any earnings thereon. 

  

 -11- 

 ARTICLE 6 
 Distributions 
  

	6.1	Distributions. A Participant shall receive a distribution of his or her Accounts on the date, and in the form, elected by the Participant, subject to the provisions of
this ARTICLE 6. All distributions under this Plan shall be in cash, except that any amount treated as invested in the Company Stock Fund under Section 5.4(b) shall be distributed in shares of voting common stock of the Company, valued at the
time of distribution. The amount of distribution shall be reduced by applicable withholding in accordance with Section 13.3. 

  

	6.2	Election of Time and Form of Distribution. At the time of a deferral election under Section 4.2 or, in the case of Employer Contributions, before the expiration
of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year to which such Employer Contribution relates, each Participant shall elect the time of (in accordance with Section 6.3) and form of (in accordance with Section 6.4) distribution of Elective Deferrals
and Employer Contributions for the applicable Plan Year. Elections shall be made on a year-by-year basis and different elections may be made with respect to the different types of Elective Deferrals and with respect to Employer Contributions. Such
election shall, subject to Sections 6.5 and 6.6, be irrevocable except as provided in Section 6.7 or 6.8. In the absence of a timely election of an alternate time and form of distribution, a Participant’s vested account shall be paid in a
lump sum upon Termination of Employment. 

  

	6.3	Time of Distribution. A Participant shall elect to have all or a portion of his or her Account distributed, subject to Section 6.5 and Section 6.6:

  

	 	(a)	On such specified quarterly date(s) as permitted by the Administrator; or 

  

	 	(b)	Upon the quarterly distribution date next following Termination of Employment or other separation from service, subject to Section 6.9. 

  

	 	(c)	The Participant’s election of a date of distribution may only be changed consistent with Section 6.7. 

 Notwithstanding a Participant’s election of a specified distribution date, if the Participant has a Termination of Employment (including by reason of
death) prior to the elected distribution date, the Participant’s Account shall be distributed in a single lump sum payment, except as permitted under Section 6.4 with respect to elections of installment distributions in connection with
Terminations of Employment after attainment of Normal Retirement Age. This payment upon earlier Termination of Employment is intended to provide for payment on the “earlier” of two events in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409(a)-3(b).

  

	6.4	 Form of Distribution. A Participant shall elect, with respect to distributions on a specified date or with respect to distributions on account of
Termination of Employment after attainment of Normal Retirement Age, that distributions may be made in a lump sum or in installments of from 2 to 10 years. Each installment distribution is treated as a 

  

 -12- 

	 	 
“separate payment” for purposes of Code section 409A. If installments are elected, then the specified date of each installment shall be the
anniversary of the first installment. The installment shall be calculated by multiplying the balance in the Account (or sub account) being distributed by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is the remaining number
of annual payments due the Participant. Installment payments of amounts deferred in the form of Company Stock shall be determined using the procedures set forth in the preceding sentence, except that no fractional shares shall be distributed. By way
of example, if the Participant elects 10 year installments, the first payment shall be  1/10 of the Account with respect to which
this election is made. The following year, the payment shall be  1/9 of the then value of the Account, etc.

  

	6.5	Automatic Distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing: 

  

	 	(a)	All distributions, regardless of the date for distribution elected by the Participant, must commence no later than the calendar year following Termination of Employment or, with
respect to Eligible Directors, termination of service as a director of the Company. 

  

	 	(b)	In the case of a Participant whose employment terminates before attaining Normal Retirement Age, distributions may only be made in the form of a lump sum. 

 

	 	(c)	If a Participant dies before his or her Account is completely distributed, the Participant’s remaining Accounts shall continue in effect under the terms of this Plan and shall
be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary in the form of a lump sum within 180 days of the date of death. 

  

	6.6	Additional Distribution Provisions. 

  

	 	(a)	Distribution on Change in Control. A Participant may elect to receive a distribution of upon a Change in Control. If such an election is in force with respect to a
Participant upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, amounts payable on a Change in Control shall be paid to him or her in a lump sum as soon as possible following the occurrence of the Change in Control, but in no event later than 90 days
following such event. 

  

	 	(b)	 Distribution for Unforeseeable Emergencies. If the Participant experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency, the Participant may request, in writing, a partial or
full distribution from the Plan. The distribution shall not exceed the lesser of the sum of the Participant’s Account, calculated as if such Participant were receiving a distribution, in a lump sum, on termination of employment, or the amount
reasonably needed to satisfy the Unforeseeable Emergency as determined by the Committee. In no event may the distribution pursuant to this Section 6.6(b) exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy such emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes
reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the participant’s
assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself 

  

 -13- 

	 	 
cause severe financial hardship). Distributions shall be made from all subaccounts proportionately. If the Committee grants the request for a distribution,
it shall be made within 60 days of the date of approval. 

  

	 	(c)	Tax Reimbursement Distribution. If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefits under this Plan becomes taxable to the Participant, the Participant
shall receive in distribution a Tax Reimbursement Distribution no later than the end of the year following the year the Participant remits the tax on such benefits. A Tax Reimbursement Distribution shall be accounted for as a distribution and shall
reduce a Participant’s Account in a like amount. 

  

	6.7	Subsequent Deferral Election. A Participant may make a second election to change the time and form of the payment of the Participant’s Account previously elected
pursuant to this Article 6, if: 

  

	 	(a)	the second election defers payment for a period of not less than 5 years for the date such payment would otherwise have been made; 

  

	 	(b)	the second election is made not less than 12 months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment; and 

  

	 	(c)	The second election does not take effect until at least 12 months after the date on which the election is made. 

  

	6.8	Transition Election. Participants may change the time or form of payment of the balance in his or her Account as of December 31, 2007 by means of a valid
Transition Election completed prior to December 7, 2007. 

  

	6.9	Restriction on Distribution to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding the terms of any election or Plan provision, distribution to a Specified Employee made on account
of separation from service may not be made before the quarterly distribution date (the “New Payment Date”) next following the date which is 6 months and 1 day after the date of separation from service as determined under section 409A
of the Code. Distributions that otherwise would have been paid to the Participant during the period between the separation from service and the New Payment Date shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum on such New Payment Date. Thereafter, any
payments that remain outstanding as of the day immediately following the New Payment Date shall be paid without delay over the time period originally scheduled, in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Participant’s election.

  

	6.10	Domestic Relations Orders. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, payment under the Plans may be made to an individual other than the Participant, and such
payment may be accelerated, to the extent necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order. 

  

 -14- 

 ARTICLE 7 
 Beneficiary Designation 
  

	7.1	Beneficiary. Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate his or her Beneficiary(ies) (both primary as well as contingent) to receive any benefits
payable under the Plan to a beneficiary upon the death of a Participant. The Beneficiary designated under this Plan may be the same as or different from the Beneficiary designation under any other plan of a Participating Employer in which the
Participant participates. 

  

	7.2	Beneficiary Designation; Change. A Participant shall designate his or her Beneficiary in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator. A Participant
shall have the right to change a Beneficiary in accordance with the Administrator’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. Upon the acceptance by the Administrator of a new Beneficiary designation, all Beneficiary designations
previously filed shall be canceled. The Company and trustee shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary designation made by the Participant and accepted by the Administrator prior to his or her death. 

  

	7.3	No Beneficiary Designation. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided in this ARTICLE 7, or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the
Participant or die prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, then the Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his or her surviving spouse. If the Participant has no surviving spouse, the benefits
remaining under the Plan to be paid to a Beneficiary shall be payable to the then living issue of the Participant per stirpes and, if there is no such issue, to the executor or personal representative of the Participant’s estate.

  

	7.4	Doubt as to Beneficiary. If the Administrator has any doubt as to the proper Beneficiary to receive payments pursuant to this Plan, the Administrator shall have the
right, exercisable in its discretion, to direct the Company to withhold such payments until this matter is resolved to the Administrator’s satisfaction. 

  

 -15- 

 ARTICLE 8 
 Leave of Absence/Disability 
  

	8.1	Paid Leave of Absence. If a Participant is authorized by the Company for any reason to take a paid leave of absence the Participant shall continue to be considered
employed and the deferral elections shall continue during such paid leave of absence, unless and until such time as such leave of absence results in a Termination of Employment under the Plan. 

  

	8.2	Unpaid Leave of Absence. If a Participant is authorized by the Company for any reason to take an unpaid leave of absence from the employment of the Employer, the
Participant shall continue to be considered employed (unless and until such time as such leave of absence results in a Termination of Employment under the Plan) but the Participant shall be excused from making deferrals until the earlier of the date
the leave of absence expires or the Participant returns to a paid employment status, except that deferral elections with respect to restricted stock shall be honored. Upon such expiration or return and absent a Termination of Employment, deferrals
shall resume for the remaining portion of the Plan Year in which the expiration or return occurs, based on the deferral election, if any, made for that Plan Year. If no election was made for that Plan Year, no deferral shall be withheld.

  

	8.3	Disability. A Participant who is disabled and receiving short or long term disability payments from the Company’s disability carrier shall be treated in the same
manner as a Participant on an authorized, unpaid leave of absence until the Participant’s employment is terminated or the Participant returns to active employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a disabled Participant is utilizing
paid time off or is receiving similar leave or vacation pay from the Company, the Participant’s deferral elections shall continue. 

  

 -16- 

 ARTICLE 9 
 Termination, Amendment and Modification 
  

	9.1	Termination of the Plan. Although the Company anticipates that it will continue the Plan for an indefinite period of time, it reserves the right to terminate the Plan
at any time, by action of the Committee. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of Plan termination, Accounts shall be distributed to Participants in lump sum payments as soon as permitted under Treas. Reg.
§1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix). 

  

	9.2	Amendment and Termination. The Board or the Committee may, at any time, amend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part; provided, however, that no amendment or
modification shall be effective to decrease or restrict the value of a Participant’s Accounts in existence at the time of the amendment or termination, except as required by law in order to avoid penalty or additional tax. The amendment or
modification of the Plan shall not affect any Participant or Beneficiary who has become entitled to the payment of benefits under the Plan as of the date of the amendment or modification. 

  

 -17- 

 ARTICLE 10 
 Administration 
  

	10.1	Committee Duties. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee, who may delegate day-to-day administrative duties to the Administrator. The Committee shall also
have the complete discretion and authority to (a) make, amend, interpret, and enforce all appropriate rules and regulations for the administration of this Plan and (b) decide or resolve any and all questions including interpretations of
this Plan, as may arise in connection with the Plan. When making a determination or calculation, the Committee shall be entitled to rely on information furnished by a Participant or the Company.

administration, interpretation and application of the Plan and the rules and regulations promulgated hereunder shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan. 

  

	10.4	Indemnity of Committee. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the Committee, the Administrator and any other employee of the Company to whom the
duties of the Committee may be delegated, against any and all claims, losses, damages, expenses or liabilities arising from any action or failure to act with respect to this Plan, to the full extent permitted by law, if the individual was acting in
the good faith belief that such action or failure to act was in the best interest of the Company and consistent with the terms of the Plan. 

  

	10.5	Employer Information. To enable the Committee or Administrator to perform its functions, the Company and every Participating Employer shall supply full and timely
information to the Committee on all matters relating to the compensation of its Participants and such other pertinent information as the Committee may reasonably require. 

  

 -18- 

 ARTICLE 11 
 Claims Procedures 
  

	11.1	Presentation of Claim. Any Claimant may deliver to the Committee a written claim for a determination with respect to the amounts distributable to such Claimant from
the Plan. If such a claim relates to the contents of a notice received by the Claimant, the claim must be made within 60 days after such notice was received by the Claimant. All other claims must be made within 180 days of the date on which the

 ARTICLE 12 
 Trust 
  

	12.1	Establishment of the Trust. The Company and each Participating Employer may establish one or more Trusts and the Company shall at least annually transfer over to the
Trust such assets as the Company and each Participating Employer determines, in its sole discretion, are necessary to provide for its liabilities under the Plan. 

  

	12.2	Interrelationship of the Plan and the Trust. The provisions of the Plan shall govern the rights of a Participant to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The
provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the Company, each Participating Employer, Participants and the creditors of the Company to the assets transferred to the Trust. The Company and each Participating Employer shall at all times remain
liable to carry out its obligations under the Plan. 

  

	12.3	Investment of Trust Assets. The Trustee of any trust established with respect to this Plan shall be authorized, upon written instructions received from the Committee,

be reduced to the extent of such distributions. 

  

 -21- 

 ARTICLE 13 
 Miscellaneous 
  

	13.1	Other Benefits and Agreements. The benefits provided for a Participant and such Participant’s Beneficiary under the Plan are in addition to any other benefits
available to such Participant under any other plan or program for employees of the Company. The Plan shall supplement and shall not supersede, modify or amend any other such plan or program except as may otherwise be expressly provided.

  

	13.2	Unsecured General Creditor. Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any
property or assets of the Company or any Participating Employer. For purposes of the payment of benefits under this Plan, any and all of the assets of the Company or Participating Employer shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged unrestricted
assets of the Company or Participating Employer, respectively. Their obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. 

  

	13.3	Withholding. Any withholding required under any applicable law with respect to any payment under this Plan shall be made as determined by the Administrator. Upon the
distribution of shares of Company stock, to the extent that the tax withholding obligation resulting from such distribution exceeds the amount of cash included in such distribution, then such portion of the shares included in such distribution will,
with no further action by the Participant, be automatically sold such that the proceeds of such sale equal (as nearly as reasonably possible) the minimum statutory withholding obligations, based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal
and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that result form such distribution. This automatic sale provision is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and shall be interpreted
to comply with the requirements of such rule. 

  

	13.4	Payments that Would Violate Federal Securities Laws. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, any payment scheduled to be made under the Plan will be
delayed if the Company reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will violate federal securities laws or other applicable law. Any such delayed payment will be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that
the making of the payment will not cause such violation. 

  

	13.5	 Deduction Limitation on Benefit Payments. If the Company reasonably anticipates that its deduction with respect to any distribution from this Plan
would be limited or eliminated by application of Code section 162(m), then to the extent permitted by Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(7)(i), payment may be delayed as deemed necessary to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution from this Plan
is deductible. Any amounts for which distribution is delayed pursuant to this Section shall continue to be credited/debited with additional amounts in accordance with Article 5. The delayed amounts (and any amounts credited thereon) shall be
distributed to the Participant (or his or her Beneficiary in the event of the Participant’s death) at the earliest date the Company reasonably anticipates that the deduction of the payment of the amount will not be limited or eliminated by
application of Code section 162(m). In the event that such date is determined to be after 

  

 -22- 

	 	 
a Participant’s Termination of Employment and the Participant to whom the payment relates is determined to be a Specified Employee, then to the extent
deemed necessary to comply with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(2), the delayed payment shall not made before the end of the six-month period following such Participant’s Termination of Employment. This provision shall not be applicable to
Terminations of Employment made in connection with a Change in Control. 

  

	13.6	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, alienate 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. No
part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be
transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise. 

  

	13.7	Not a Contract of Employment. The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Company or any Participating
Employer and the Participant. Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an “at will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, unless
otherwise expressly provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company or any Participating Employer or to interfere with the right of the
Company or any Participating Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time. 

  

	13.8	Furnishing Information. A Participant or his or her Beneficiary will cooperate with the Committee by furnishing any and all information requested by the Committee and
take such other actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such physical examinations as the Committee may deem necessary.

  

	13.9	Discharge of Obligations. The payment of benefits under the Plan to a Beneficiary shall fully and completely discharge the Company, the Committee and the Administrator
from all further obligations under this Plan with respect to the Participant. 

  

	13.10	Governing Law. Subject to ERISA, the provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. 

  

	13.11	Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Committee under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by
registered or certified mail, to the address below: 

 Compensation and Benefits Committee 
 c/o Corporate Compensation Department 
 PerkinElmer, Inc. 
 940 Winter Street 
 Waltham, MA 02451 
  

 -23- 

 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. 
 Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a
Participant under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by mail, to the last known address of the Participant. 
  

	13.12	Successors. The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Company or any Participating Employer and their successors and assigns and the
Participant and the Participant’s designated Beneficiaries. 

  

	13.13	Validity. In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but
this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein. 

  

	13.14	Incompetent. If the Committee determines in its discretion that a benefit under this Plan is to be paid to a minor, a person declared incompetent or to a person the
Committee determines in good faith to be incapable of handling the disposition of that person’s property, the Committee may direct payment of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of such
minor, incompetent or incapable person. The Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any payment of a benefit shall be a payment for the
account of the Participant and the Participant’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Plan for such payment amount.
