percentage not exceeding 20% of the amount of the Participant’s Compensation. The
elections described in this Article III shall specify the form and time of
distribution of benefits as described in Section 6.01. Unless otherwise provided, an
election must be made each year in order to participate in this Plan.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Deferral of Performance Shares and Restricted Stock Units. Each
Participant who receives a grant of Performance Shares or a grant of Restricted Stock
Units in a Plan Year may elect to defer all or any percentage of the Performance Shares
or Restricted Stock Units he or she may be entitled to receive (including dividend
equivalents credited to such shares) upon the achievement of any performance
requirements or lapse of the vesting period to which the grant is subject. This
election shall be made by giving notice in a manner and within the time prescribed by

	 	(a)	 	Elections to Defer Compensation. For each Plan Year, a Participant (or
any Eligible Employee who is expected to become eligible to participate in the Plan)
may make an election to defer his or her salary by filing an election form with the
Administrative Committee within a reasonable period of time, as specified by the
Committee, before the beginning of the Plan Year to which the Deferral election
applies. Except as provided in this Plan, a Deferral election shall be irrevocable on
the December 31 preceding the Plan Year, or at such earlier time as the Committee
prescribes, and may not be changed or revoked during the Plan Year that it is
effective; provided, however, that a Participant’s election shall terminate if such
Participant receives a distribution on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency or
hardship withdrawal from the 401(k) Plan and thereafter the
Participant must submit a new election during the next enrollment period to resume
participation in the Plan.

 4 

 

	 	(b)	 	Elections to Defer Performance-Based Bonuses. The Company, in its
discretion, may permit a separate election to defer a Performance-Based Bonus, and such
election may be made and be irrevocable no later than six months prior to the end of
the applicable performance period; provided, however, that such election shall be made
prior to the date that the Performance-Based Bonus is readily ascertainable.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Elections to Defer Performance Shares and Restricted Stock Units. The
Company, in its discretion, may permit a separate election to defer distribution of
Performance Share awards and Restricted Stock Unit awards, and such election may be
made and be irrevocable no later than thirty days following the grant date of the
awards.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Deferral of Distribution of Performance Share Awards and Restricted Stock
Unit Awards Granted Prior to March 13, 2008

	 
	 	 	 	
Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, for the purposes of
Performance Share awards and Restricted Stock Unit awards granted prior to March 13,
2008, a Participant may defer the time of distribution of any unvested portion of
such Performance Share awards and Restricted Stock Unit awards (including dividend
equivalents credited to such shares); provided that: (1) such deferral shall not
become effective for 12 months and (2) the date of payment is at least five years
subsequent to the originally scheduled payment date, and (3) the form is accepted by
the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion. The election may be modified or
revoked until twelve months prior to the originally scheduled vesting date or such
earlier time that the Committee determines in its discretion, at which time such
change shall become irrevocable. The last valid form accepted by the Committee
shall govern the payout of a Participant’s deferred shares subject to Performance
Share awards and Restricted Stock Unit awards granted prior to March 13, 2008,
(including dividend equivalents credited to such shares), as applicable.

ARTICLE IV

ACCOUNTS, FUNDING AND VALUATION

	 	4.01	 	Establishment of Account

The Administrative Committee shall open and maintain a separate Account for each
Participant. Such Account shall be credited with all Deferrals for the Participant. As
soon as reasonably practicable after each Valuation Date, each Participant shall be notified
of the value of his or her Account.

 5 

 

	 	4.02	 	Valuation of Account Prior to the Implementation of a Supplemental Plan 

	 	(a)	 	Until the date designated by the Administrative Committee for implementation of
a supplemental 401(k) Plan, as described in Section 4.03, interest shall be credited to
each Participant’s Account as of each Valuation Date equal to the product of

	 	(1)	 	the amount credited to the Participant’s Account as of the last
preceding Valuation Date, less any distributions or withdrawals and plus
one-half of Deferrals, if any, since the last preceding Valuation Date,
multiplied by
	 
	 	(2)	 	the applicable interest rate.

	 	(b)	 	On each Valuation Date, each Participant’s Account will be credited with
interest. The amount of interest will be derived from the prime interest rate
published in The Wall Street Journal on the last business day coinciding with or next
preceding the Valuation Date. Any prime rate up to 6% will be considered in full, and
one-half of any prime rate over 6% will be considered; provided, however, that
effective April 1, 2007, the interest rate will not exceed 120% of the long-term
applicable federal rate (compounded quarterly), as published by the Internal Revenue
Service for the applicable Plan Year. The amount credited will be a proration of the
interest rate applied taking into consideration the period of time elapsed since the
last Valuation Date.

	 	4.03	 	Investment Elections After Implementation of a Supplemental 401(k) Plan 

	 	(a)	 	Effective upon the date selected for implementation of a supplemental 401(k)
Plan by the Administrative Committee, each Participant shall make an investment
election in the manner prescribed by the Administrative Committee, indicating the
Participant’s election to have the value of his or her Account determined by crediting
it with such earnings, gains and losses as would have accrued to the Participant’s
Account had such funds actually been invested in one or more of the investment funds
maintained in the 401(k) Plan. Such investment election may be changed from time to
time by the Participant with respect to both past and future deferrals by following the
procedures prescribed by the Committee.
	 
	 	(b)	 	If an investment fund is eliminated from the 401(k) Plan, the value of the

ARTICLE V

PARTICIPANTS’ VESTED INTERESTS

	 	5.01	 	Vesting

Each Participant shall always be 100% vested in the portion of his or her Account
attributable to Deferrals and interest or earnings credited pursuant to Section 4.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article V, the vesting of shares subject to
a Restricted Stock Unit award or to a Performance Share award granted to a participant shall
always be subject to the vesting schedules and performance requirements set forth in the
equity award’s applicable plan or agreement.

ARTICLE VI

DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS

	 	6.01	 	Distribution of Benefits

Except as otherwise provided in Article VI of the Plan, a Participant’s Account may not be
distributed to a Participant or his or her Beneficiary before the dates chosen pursuant to
the election made by the Participant.

	 	(a)	 	Form of Distribution. A Participant will elect, in writing, on a form
prescribed by the Administrative Committee, which of the distribution options described
below will govern the payment of the Participant’s Account upon a Separation from
Service. The Participant’s Account will be distributed to him (subject to the timing
requirements outlined in paragraphs (b) — (e) below) on any of the following schedules:

	 	(1)	 	A single lump sum,
	 
	 	(2)	 	Four annual installments, or
	 
	 	(3)	 	Ten annual installments.

If the Participant made no election at the time specified in Section 3.02, his or her
benefit shall be paid as a single lump sum upon a Separation from Service. For purposes of
this Plan, installment payments shall be treated as a single distribution under section 409A
of the Code.

	 	(b)	 	Time of Distribution

	 	(1)	 	Separation from Service. If a Participant Separates
from Service, his or her Account shall be distributed in the form elected by
the Participant pursuant to paragraph (a) above. Subject to the timing
requirements of paragraphs (c), a Participant’s Account shall be distributed
on the seventh

 7 

 

	 	 	 	month following his or her Separation from Service. The amount in the
Participant’s Account shall be determined as of the Valuation Date that last
precedes the date of distribution, plus Deferrals and less any withdrawals
or distributions, if any, for the period from the last preceding Valuation
Date to the date of distribution.
	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, if a
Participant elects to defer the receipt of Performance Shares or Restricted
Stock Units granted prior to March 13, 2008, then such shares (including
dividend equivalents credited to such shares) shall be distributed in the
year in which the Participant elects; provided that such distribution shall
not occur at any time prior to the five-year anniversary of the originally
scheduled payment date of such shares; provided further that if the
Participant experiences a Separation from Service at any time prior to such
elected distribution date, the vested portion of any shares subject to such
Performance Share award or Restricted Stock Unit award granted prior to
March 13, 2008, shall be distributed on the seventh month following his or
her Separation from Service.
	 
	 	(2)	 	Disability. Effective January 1, 2007, if a
Participant becomes Disabled, his or her Account shall be distributed or begin
to be distributed, in the manner elected by the Participant pursuant to
paragraph (a) above, as soon as administratively feasible, but no later than 90
days, after the Participant becomes Disabled. The amount in the Participant’s
Account shall be determined as of the Valuation Date that last precedes the
date of distribution, plus Deferrals and less any withdrawals or distributions,
if any, for the period from the last preceding Valuation Date to the date of
distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a distribution of a Participant’s Account in
subparagraphs (1) and (2) above, and after January 1, 2007 but prior to the implementation
of a supplemental 401(k) Plan as described in Section 4.03, the Company shall credit to a
Participant’s Account interest on the amount that is the difference of the value of the
Participant’s Account as of the last Valuation Date preceding the scheduled distribution
date. Interest shall be calculated using the principles set forth in Section 4.02.

	 	(c)	 	Changes to Distribution Elections
	 
	 	 	 	A Participant may change his or her form of distribution of his or her Account upon
a Separation from Service by submitting a form, as the Committee prescribes;
provided that (1) any such change is not effective for 12 months and (2) the date of
payment is at least five years subsequent to the originally scheduled date of
payment, and (3) the form is accepted by the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion. The change may be modified or revoked until twelve months prior to the
time a Participant is originally scheduled to receive a payment, at which time such
change shall become irrevocable. The last valid

 8 

 

	 	 	 	form accepted by the Committee shall govern the payout of a Participant’s Account,
as applicable.
	 
	 	 	 	Distributions made pursuant to this paragraph (c) will be made as soon as
administratively practicable, but no later than 90 days, after the newly scheduled
date of distribution.

	 	(d)	 	No Cessation of Distribution for Rehired Participants
	 
	 	 	 	In addition, if a Participant Separates from Service and is later rehired by an
Employer, distributions shall not cease, but continue to be distributed as elected.

	 	6.02	 	Unforeseeable Emergency Withdrawals

	 	(a)	 	A Participant may withdraw up to 100% of the amount in his or her Deferral
Account in the event of an unforeseeable emergency to the extent provided in this
Section 6.02.
	 
	 	(b)	 	For purposes of this Section 6.02, unforeseeable emergency means a severe
financial hardship to the Participant resulting from a sudden and unexpected illness or
accident of the Participant or a dependent (as defined in section 152(a) of the Code)
of the Participant, loss of the Participant’s property due to casualty, or other
similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events
beyond the Participant’s control.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The withdrawal under this Section 6.02 may not exceed the amount reasonably
necessary to satisfy the financial need (including the amount of any federal, state or
local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the withdrawal).
The withdrawal may not be made to the extent the need may be satisfied (1) through
reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, (2) by liquidation of the
Participant’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of the assets would not itself
cause severe financial hardship, or (3) by ceasing Deferrals under the Plan.
	 
	 	(d)	 	A Participant who wishes to withdraw any amount pursuant to this Section 6.02
must submit, on a form provided by the Administrative Committee, a written request by
the Participant that states:

	 	(1)	 	The unforeseeable emergency for which the withdrawal is
requested;
	 
	 	(2)	 	The amount needed to satisfy the financial need, which amount
may include any federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably
anticipated to result from the withdrawal;
	 
	 	(3)	 	A representation that the need cannot be satisfied in any of
the ways stated in the second sentence of paragraph (c);
	 
	 	(4)	 	The date the funds are required; and

 9 

 

	 	(5)	 	Any other information the Administrative Committee deems
necessary.

	 	(e)	 	The Administrative Committee will determine if an unforeseeable emergency
withdrawal will be allowed by applying the standards set forth in paragraphs (b) and
(c).
	 
	 	(f)	 	A withdrawal from a Participant’s Account under this Section 6.02 shall be paid
in a lump sum.

	 	6.03	 	Special Distribution Election on or before December 31, 2007

Participants who are identified by the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, may
make a special distribution election to receive a distribution of their Accounts in calendar
year 2008 or later, provided that the distribution election is made at least twelve months
in advance of the newly elected distribution date (and the previously scheduled distribution
date, if any) and the election is made no later than December 31, 2007. An election made
pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be subject to any special administrative rules imposed
by the Committee including rules intended to comply with section 409A of the Code. No
election under this Section 6.03 shall (a) change the payment date of any distribution
otherwise scheduled to be paid in 2007 or cause a payment to be paid in 2007, or (b) be
permitted after December 31, 2007.

	 	6.04	 	Prohibition on Acceleration

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no distribution will be
made from the Plan that would constitute an impermissible acceleration of payment as defined
in section 409A(a)(3) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

	 	6.05	 	Distributions to Key Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, distributions to a Key
Employee may not be made before the date that is six months after the date of his or her
Separation from Service.

ARTICLE VII

DEATH

	 	7.01	 	Death

If a Participant dies before distribution of his or her Account has begun or been completed,
the remaining portion of the Participant’s Account shall be payable in a single lump sum to
the Participant’s Beneficiary no later than 90 days after the date of the Participant’s
death. The value of the Participant’s Account shall be determined in accordance with the
rules set forth in Section 4.

PARTICIPANTS’ RIGHTS

	 	9.01	 	Special Disclosures

The Company shall furnish at least every six months each Participant or Beneficiary with a
written statement, based on the latest available information, indicating his or her total

the disposition of such Account.

     9.02 Filing a Claim for Benefits

A Participant or Beneficiary or the Employer acting in his or her behalf shall notify the
Administrative Committee of a claim for benefits under the Plan. Such request may be in any
form acceptable to the Administrative Committee and shall set forth the basis of such claim
and shall authorize the Administrative Committee to conduct such examinations as may be
necessary to determine the validity of the claim and to take such steps as may be necessary
to facilitate the payment of any benefits to which the Participant or Beneficiary may be
entitled under the terms of the Plan. The Administrative Committee shall review the claim
and may require additional information if necessary to process the claim. The
Administrative Committee shall issue its decision, in writing, no later than 90 days after

 13 

 

the date the claim is received, unless circumstances require an extension of time. If such
an extension is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the person
making the claim within the initial 90-day period, and the notice shall state the
circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Administrative Committee
expects to reach a decision on the claim. In no event shall the extension exceed a period

Whenever a claim for benefits by any Participant or Beneficiary has been denied, in whole or

within the period specified in Section 9.02 above. The notice shall set forth, in a manner
calculated to be understood by the claimant, (i) the specific reason or reasons for the
denial; (ii) reference to the specific Plan provisions upon which the denial is based; (iii)
a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to
perfect the claim and an explanation of why such information is necessary; and (iv) an

procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under
Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review.

Participation hereunder shall not grant any Participant the right to be retained in the
service of the Employer or any rights or interest other than those specifically herein set
forth.

ARTICLE X

	 	10.01	 	Amendment

The Board may at any time and from time to time amend this Plan in whole or in part
(including retroactively). The Board shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Committee
a written copy of the document amending the Plan. The Board shall not have the right to
amend the Plan retroactively in such a manner as to deprive any Participant or Beneficiary
of any benefit to which he or she was entitled under the Plan by reason of Deferrals
credited prior to the amendment.

The Committee may amend the Plan to bring the Plan into compliance with applicable law
(including changes required in order to avoid penalty taxes applied to Participants under
Section 409A of the Code), to admit additional employees to the Plan in connection with the
acquisition of assets or additional business operations by the Employer, or to make such
other changes as the Committee deems desirable; provided that such changes do not materially
increase the cost of the Plan to the Employer or take the Plan out of compliance with
applicable law, and provided further that the Committee may not amend this Article X.

 14 

 

	 	10.02	 	Termination of the Plan

	 	(a)	 	General. The Board may terminate the Plan at any time and in the
Board’s discretion the Accounts of Participants may be distributed within the period
beginning twelve months after the date the Plan was terminated and ending twenty-four
months after the date the Plan was terminated. If the Plan is terminated and Accounts
are distributed, the Company shall terminate all account balance non-qualified deferred
compensation plans with respect to all participants and shall not adopt a new account
balance non-qualified deferred compensation plan for at least three years after the
date the Plan was terminated.

	 	10.03	 	Termination upon a Change in Control

	 	(a)	 	“Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred upon a change in
the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the assets of the Company as defined in the regulations
promulgated under section 409A of the Code.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Discretionary Distribution of Accounts
	 
	 	 	 	The Board, in its discretion may terminate the Plan 30 days prior to, or twelve
months following, a Change in Control and distribute the Accounts of the
Participants within the 12-month period following the termination of the Plan. If
the Plan is terminated and Accounts are distributed, the Company shall terminate all
substantially similar non-qualified deferred compensation plans sponsored by the
Company and all of the benefits of the terminated plans shall be distributed within
twelve months following the termination of the plans.

	 	10.04	 	Termination upon Dissolution or Bankruptcy

The Board, in its discretion, may terminate the Plan upon a corporate dissolution of the
Company that is taxed under section 331 of the Code or with the approval of a bankruptcy
court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. section 503(b)(1)(A), provided that the Participants’ Accounts
are distributed and included in the gross income of the Participants by the latest of (i)
the calendar year in which the Plan terminates or (ii) the first calendar year in which
payment of the Accounts is administratively practicable.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

	 	11.01	 	Execution of Receipts and Releases

Any payment to any Participant or Beneficiary, in accordance with the provisions of this
Plan, shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims hereunder against
the Plan, and the Administrative Committee may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a

 15 

 

condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release therefor in such form
as the Administrative Committee shall determine.

	 	11.02	 	Notice and Unclaimed Benefits

Each Participant and Beneficiary must file with the Employer from time to time in writing
his or her post office address and each change of post office address. Any communication,
statement, or notice addressed to a Participant or Beneficiary at his or her last post
office address filed with the Employer (or if no address was filed with the Employer, then
at his or her last post office address shown on his or her “Employer’s Records”) will be
binding on the Participant and his or her Beneficiary for all purposes of the Plan. Neither
the Employer, Administrative Committee, nor any insurance company providing annuity
contracts under the Plan shall be obliged to search for or ascertain the whereabouts of any
Participant or Beneficiary. For the purpose of this Section, “Employer Records” means the
payroll records maintained by an Employer. Such records shall be conclusive, unless shown
to the Employer’s satisfaction to be incorrect.

The Committee shall notify any Participant or Beneficiary when a distribution is required
under the Plan. The Committee may also request the Social Security Administration to notify
the Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with any procedures the Administration has
established for this purpose. In the event that the Participant or Beneficiary shall fail
to respond to any notice from the Committee, the amount in his or her Account shall be
forfeited.

	 	11.03	 	Non-Alienation of Benefits

Except in the case of a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in section 414(p) of
the Code:

	 	(a)	 	No Participant or Beneficiary, and no creditor of a Participant or Beneficiary
shall have any right to assign, pledge, sell, hypothecate, anticipate or in any way
create a lien upon his or her benefits under the Plan by operation of law or otherwise,
and any attempt to do so shall be void; nor shall any such benefits in any manner be
liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the
person entitled to such benefits.
	 
	 	(b)	 	No interest in the Plan shall be subject to assignment or transfer or otherwise
be alienable, either by voluntary or involuntary act or by operation of law or equity,
or subject to attachment, execution, garnishment, sequestration, levy or other seizure
under any legal, equitable or other process, or be liable in any way for the debts or
defaults of Participants and Beneficiaries.

	 	11.04	 	Loans to Participants

A Participant may not receive a loan from the Plan of any portion of his or her Account.

	 	11.05	 	Benefits Payable to Incompetents

 16 

 

Each individual receiving benefit payments under the Plan shall be conclusively presumed to
have been legally competent until the date upon which the Administrative Committee shall
have received written notice in the form and manner acceptable to it that such individual is
an incompetent for whom a guardian or other person legally vested with his or her care shall
have been appointed. From and after the date of receipt of such notice by the
Administrative Committee, all future benefit payments to which such individual is entitled
under the Plan shall be payable to his or her guardian or other person legally vested with
his or her care, until such time as the Administrative Committee shall be furnished with
evidence satisfactory to it that such individual is legally competent.

	 	11.06	 	Applicable Law

This Plan shall be governed and construed under Federal laws, the laws of the State of
California and, to the extent applicable, ERISA and regulations thereunder.

	 	11.07	 	Headings as Guide

The headings of this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be
considered in construction of the provisions hereof.

	 	11.08	 	Pronouns

When necessary to the meaning hereof, either the masculine or the neuter pronoun shall be
deemed to include the masculine, the feminine, and the neuter, and the singular shall be
deemed to include the plural.

	 	11.09	 	Reference to Laws

Any reference to any section or regulation under the Code or ERISA or to any other statute
or law shall be deemed to include any successor law of similar import.

	 	11.10	 	Agent Designated for Service of Process

The designated person upon whom service of process may be made in any action involving the
Plan shall be any current member of the Administrative Committee.

	 	11.11	 	Participant’s Rights Unsecured

The right of the Participant or his or her designated Beneficiary to receive a distribution
hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company, and neither
the Participant nor his or her designated Beneficiary shall have any rights in or against
any amount credited to his or her Account or any other specific assets of the Company. All
amounts credited to an Account shall constitute general assets of the Company and may be
disposed of by the Company at such time and for such purposes as it may deem appropriate.
An Account may not be encumbered or assigned by a Participant or any Beneficiary, as
provided in Section 11.03.
