	Purpose. The purpose of the G&K Services, Inc.

The Plan is also intended to facilitate recruiting and retaining talented executives for key positions by providing an attractive capital accumulation opportunity. The Plan was initially adopted by the Board (as defined below) as the G&K Services, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan on August 23, 2006, and approved by the shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders held November 16, 2006.

Restated Equity Incentive Plan (2010) and as such was adopted by the Board on August 19, 2010, and approved by the shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders scheduled for November 4, 2010. The Plan is now being restated as the G&K Services, Inc. Restated Equity Incentive Plan (2013).

The Committee shall consider such factors as it deems relevant, in its sole and absolute discretion, to making such decisions, determinations and interpretations including, without limitation, the recommendations or advice of any officer or other employee of the Company and such attorneys, consultants and accountants as it may select.

		
	4.
	Shares Available Under the Plan; Limitation on Awards.

		
	4.1.
	Aggregate Limits. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 25, the aggregate number of Shares issuable pursuant to all Awards under this Plan shall not exceed 4,000,000 Shares. Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Deferred Stock Units, and Stock cannot exceed 1,600,000 Shares of the 4,000,000 Shares authorized. Awards of Performance Units that entitle a Participant to a payment only of cash (and not of Stock) shall not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Shares available for issuance under the Plan may be increased by the number of adjusted Company Shares available for issuance under any equity incentive plan assumed by the Company in connection with a merger or other acquisition but only if and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Shares issued pursuant to Awards granted under this Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized but unissued Stock or treasury Stock not reserved for any other purpose.

		
	4.2.
	Issuance of Shares. For purposes of this Section 4, the aggregate number of Shares available for Awards under this Plan at any time shall not be reduced by Shares subject to Awards that have been canceled, expired, or forfeited, but shall be reduced by the portion of Awards settled in cash (other than Awards of Performance Units that entitle a Participant to a payment only of cash and not of Stock) or withheld in connection with the exercise or settlement of an Award. Net Share counting shall not be used to determine the number of Shares available for Awards, nor shall Shares tendered in connection with the exercise of an Award affect the number of Awards available for issuance under the Plan.

		
	4.3.
	Tax Code Limits. No Participant may be awarded in any calendar year Awards covering an aggregate of more than 250,000 Shares, which limits shall be calculated and adjusted pursuant to Section 25 only to the extent that such calculation or adjustment will not affect the status of any Award theretofore issued or that may thereafter be issued as “performance based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. The maximum amount payable pursuant to that portion of a Performance Unit granted under this Plan in any calendar year to any Participant that is to be paid in cash (and not in Stock) and that is intended to satisfy the requirements for 

6

“performance based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code shall be a dollar amount not to exceed $5,000,000.
		
	5.
	Participation. Participation in the Plan shall be limited to Employees, prospective employees, directors or advisors of the Company or an Affiliate selected by the Committee. Options intending to qualify as Incentive Stock Options may only be granted to Employees of the Company or any subsidiary within the meaning of the Code. Participation is entirely at the discretion of the Committee, and is not automatically continued after an initial period of participation.

		
	6.
	Performance Shares and Performance Units. An Award of Performance Shares or Performance Units under the Plan shall entitle the Participant to future payments or Shares or a combination thereof based upon the level of achievement with respect to one or more pre-established performance criteria (including Qualifying Performance Criteria) established for a Performance Cycle. 

		
	6.1.
	Amount of Award. The Committee shall establish a maximum amount of a Participant's Award, which amount shall be denominated in Shares in the case of Performance Shares or in dollars in the case of Performance Units.

		
	6.2.
	Communication of Award. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Award of Performance Shares or Performance Units shall contain provisions regarding (i) the target and maximum amount payable to the Participant pursuant to the Award, (ii) the performance criteria and level of achievement versus the criteria that shall determine the amount of such payment, (iii) the Performance Cycle as to which performance shall be measured for determining the amount of any payment, (iv) the timing of any payment earned by virtue of performance, (v) restrictions on the alienation or transfer of the Award prior to actual payment, (vi) forfeiture provisions and (vii) such further terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with this Plan, as may be determined from time to time by the Committee.

		
	6.3.
	Performance Criteria. Performance criteria established by the Committee shall relate to corporate, group, unit or individual performance, and may be established in terms of earnings, growth in earnings, ratios of earnings to equity or assets, or such other measures or standards determined by the Committee; provided, however, that the performance criteria for any portion of an Award of Performance Shares or Performance Units that is intended by the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) shall be a measure based on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria selected by the Committee and specified at the time the Award is granted. Multiple performance targets may be used and the components of multiple performance targets may be given the same or different weighting in determining the amount of an Award earned, and may relate to absolute performance or relative performance measured against other groups, units, individuals or entities.

7

		
	6.4.
	Discretionary Adjustments. Notwithstanding satisfaction of any performance goals, the amount paid under an Award of Performance Shares or Performance Units on account of either financial performance or personal performance evaluations may be reduced by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee shall determine.

		
	6.5.
	Payment of Awards. Following the conclusion of each Performance Cycle, the Committee shall determine the extent to which performance criteria have been attained, and the satisfaction of any other terms and conditions with respect to an Award relating to such Performance Cycle. The Committee shall determine what, if any, payment is due with respect to an Award and whether such payment shall be made in cash, Stock or a combination thereof. Payment shall be made in a lump sum or installments, as determined by the Committee at the time the Award is granted, commencing as promptly as practicable following the end of the applicable Performance Cycle, subject to such terms and conditions and in such form as may be prescribed by the Committee. Payment in Stock may be in Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, as determined by the Committee at the time the Award is granted.

		
	6.6.
	Termination of Employment. Unless the Committee provides otherwise:

		
	(a)
	Due to Death or Disability. If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee or if a Participant who is a director ceases to be a director before the end of a Performance Cycle, in either case by reason of death or permanent disability, the Performance Cycle for such Participant for the purpose of determining the amount of Award payable shall end at the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date on which said Participant ceased to be an Employee or director, as the case may be. The amount of an Award payable to a Participant (or the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant) to whom the preceding sentence is applicable shall be paid at the end of the Performance Cycle, and shall be that fraction of the Award computed pursuant to the preceding sentence, the numerator of which is the number of calendar quarters during the Performance Cycle during all of which said Participant was an Employee or director and the denominator of which is the number of full calendar quarters in the Performance Cycle.

		
	(b)
	Due to Reasons Other Than Death or Disability. Upon any other termination of employment as an Employee or director of a Participant during a Performance Cycle, participation in the Plan shall cease and all outstanding Awards of Performance Shares or Performance Units to such Participant shall be cancelled.

		
	7.
	Restricted Stock Awards. An Award of Restricted Stock under the Plan shall consist of Shares, the grant, issuance, retention, vesting and/or transferability of which are subject, during specified periods of time, to such conditions and terms as the Committee deems appropriate. 

8

Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan need not be identical, but each grant of Restricted Stock must contain and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.
		
	7.1.
	Award Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall contain provisions regarding (i) the number of Shares subject to the Award or a formula for determining such number, (ii) the purchase price of the Shares, if any, and the means of payment, (iii) such terms and conditions on the grant, issuance, vesting and/or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock as may be determined from time to time by the Committee, (iv) restrictions on the transferability of the Award and (v) such further terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with this Plan, as may be determined from time to time by the Committee. Shares issued under an Award of Restricted Stock may be issued in the name of the Participant and held by the Participant or held by the Company, in each case as the Committee may provide.

		
	7.2.
	Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions. The grant, issuance, retention, vesting and/or settlement of Shares of Restricted Stock shall occur at such time and in such installments as determined by the Committee or under criteria established by the Committee. The Committee shall have the right to make the timing of the grant and/or the issuance, ability to retain, vesting and/or settlement of Shares of Restricted Stock subject to continued employment, passage of time and/or such performance criteria as deemed appropriate by the Committee.

		
	7.3.
	Rights as a Shareholder. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant shall have all voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights with respect to Restricted Stock held by such Participant as if the Participant held unrestricted Stock; provided that the unvested portion of any award of Restricted Stock shall be subject to any restrictions on transferability or risks of forfeiture imposed pursuant to Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.4. Unless the Committee otherwise determines or unless the terms of the applicable Award Agreement or grant provides otherwise, any non-cash dividends or distributions paid with respect to shares of unvested Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same restrictions and vesting schedule as the Shares to which such dividends or distributions relate.

		
	7.4.
	Termination of Employment. Unless the Committee provides otherwise:  

		
	(a)
	Due to Death or Disability. If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee or if a Participant who is a director ceases to be a director prior to the lapse of restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock, in either case by reason of death or permanent disability, all restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock held for the Participant’s benefit shall immediately lapse.

		
	(b)
	Due to Reasons Other Than Death or Disability. Upon any other termination of employment as an Employee or director prior to the lapse of restrictions, participation in the Plan shall cease and all Shares of Restricted Stock held for the benefit of a Participant shall be forfeited by the Participant.

9

		
	7.5.
	Certificates. The Committee may require that certificates representing Shares of Restricted Stock be retained and held in escrow by a designated employee or agent of the Company or any Affiliate until any restrictions applicable to Shares of Restricted Stock so retained have been satisfied or lapsed. Each certificate issued in respect to an Award of Restricted Stock may, at the election of the Committee, bear the following legend:

“This certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture provisions and restrictions against transfer) contained in the G&K Services, Inc. Restated Equity Incentive Plan (2013) and the Restricted Stock Award. Release from such terms and conditions shall obtain only in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the Award, a copy of each of which is on file in the office of the Secretary of G&K Services, Inc.”
		
	8.
	Stock Awards.

		
	8.1.
	Grant. A Participant may be granted one or more Stock Awards under the Plan. Stock Awards shall be subject to such terms and conditions, consistent with the other provisions of the Plan, as may be determined by the Committee.

		
	8.2.
	Rights as a Shareholder. A Participant shall have all voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights with respect to Shares issued to the Participant as a Stock Award under this Section 8 upon the Participant becoming the holder of record of the Shares granted pursuant to such Stock Award; provided that the Committee may impose such restrictions on the assignment or transfer of Shares awarded pursuant to a Stock Award as it considers appropriate.

		
	9.
	Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units are Awards denominated in units under which the issuance of Shares is subject to such conditions and terms as the Committee deems appropriate. Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to the Plan need not be identical, but each grant of Restricted Stock Units must contain and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. Restricted Stock Units may be granted without vesting or forfeiture restrictions. Such Restricted Stock Units may also be called “Deferred Stock Units,” in the discretion of the Committee.

		
	9.1.
	Award Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall contain provisions regarding (i) the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to such Award or a formula for determining such number, (ii) the purchase price of the Shares subject to the Award, if any, and the means of payment, (iii) such terms and conditions on the grant, issuance, vesting and/or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units as may be determined from time to time by the Committee, (iv) restrictions on the transferability of the Award, and (v) such further terms and conditions in each case not inconsistent with this Plan as may be determined from time to time by the Committee.

10

		
	9.2.
	Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions. The grant, issuance, retention, vesting and/or settlement of Restricted Stock Units shall occur at such time and in such installments as determined by the Committee or under criteria established by the Committee. The Committee shall have the right to make the timing of the grant and/or the issuance, ability to retain, vesting and/or settlement of Restricted Stock Units subject to continued employment, passage of time and/or such performance criteria as deemed appropriate by the Committee.

		
	9.3.
	Rights as a Shareholder. Participants shall have no voting rights with respect to Shares underlying Restricted Stock Units unless and until such Shares are reflected as issued and outstanding shares on the Company's stock ledger. Shares underlying Restricted Stock Units shall be entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents only to the extent provided by the Committee. If an Award of Restricted Stock Units includes dividend equivalents, an amount equal to the dividends that would have been paid if the Restricted Stock Units had been issued and outstanding Shares as of the record date for the dividends shall be paid to the Participant in cash subject to applicable withholding taxes in accordance with the terms of the Award as determined by the Committee, to the extent consistent with Section 409A of the Code.

		
	9.4.
	Termination of Employment. Unless the Committee provides otherwise:

		
	(a)
	Due to Death or Disability. If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee or if a Participant who is a director ceases to be a director, in either case by reason of the Participant's death or permanent disability, all restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units of the Participant shall lapse in accordance with the terms of the Award as determined by the Committee.

		
	(b)
	Due to Reasons Other Than Death or Disability. For Awards designated Restricted Stock Units by the Committee, if a Participant ceases employment as an Employee or director for any reason other than death or permanent disability, all Restricted Stock Units of the Participant and all rights to receive dividend equivalents thereon shall immediately terminate without notice of any kind and shall be forfeited by the Participant. The forgoing sentence shall not apply to an Award designated as a Deferred Stock Unit by the Committee unless the Committee provides to the contrary in the Award.

		
	10.
	Options. The Committee may grant an Option or provide for the grant of an Option, either from time-to-time in the discretion of the Committee or automatically upon the occurrence of specified events, including, without limitation, the achievement of performance goals (which may include Qualifying Performance Criteria). Except to the extent provided herein, no Participant (or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant) shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject to an Option granted hereunder until said Shares have been issued. Options granted pursuant to the Plan need not be identical, but each Option must contain and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.

11

		
	10.1.
	Type of Option; Number of Shares. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement identifying the Option represented thereby as an Incentive Stock Option or Non-Qualified Stock Option, as the case may be, and the number of Shares to which the Option applies.

		
	10.2.
	Exercise Price. The exercise price under each Option shall be established by the Committee and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option on the date of grant; provided, however, that the exercise price per Share with respect to an Option that is granted in connection with a merger or other acquisition as a substitute or replacement award for options held by optionees of the acquired entity may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date such Option is granted.

		
	10.3.
	Exercisability. The Committee shall have the right to make the timing of the ability to exercise any Option subject to continued employment, the passage of time and/or such performance requirements as deemed appropriate by the Committee.

		
	10.4.
	Exercise Term. Each Option shall have a Term established by the Committee, provided that no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable after ten years from the date of grant.

		
	10.5.
	Payment for Shares. The exercise price of the Shares with respect to which an Option is exercised shall be payable at the time of exercise in accordance with procedures established by the Company. The exercise price of any Option may be paid in cash or, to the extent allowed by the Committee, an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the Shares issuable under an Option, the delivery (either physically or by attestation) of previously-owned Shares, or a combination thereof.

		
	10.6.
	No Repricing. Other than in connection with a change in the Company's capitalization (as described in Section 25), an Option may not be re-priced without shareholder approval (including canceling previously awarded Options and re-granting them with a lower exercise price). 

		
	10.7.
	No Reload Grants. Stock Options shall not be granted under the Plan in consideration for and shall not be conditioned upon the delivery of Shares to the Company in payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligation under any other employee stock option or stock appreciation right.

		
	10.8.
	Incentive Stock Options. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, each Option shall be subject to any terms, conditions and provisions as the Committee determines necessary or desirable in order to qualify the Option as an Incentive Stock Option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option (a) if the Participant owns stock possessing more than 10 percent of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (a “10% Shareholder”), the exercise price of such Option must be at least 110 percent of the 

12

Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, and the Option must expire within a period of not more than five years from the date of grant, and (b) termination of employment will be deemed to occur when the person to whom an Award was granted ceases to be an employee (as determined in accordance with Section 3401(c) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) of the Company and its subsidiaries. Options designated as Incentive Stock Options may not be issued more than ten years after the date that the Plan was adopted, or the date the Plan was approved by shareholders, whichever is later. If this Plan as restated herein is approved by the shareholders in accordance with Minnesota Statute Section 302A.437, at the annual meeting scheduled for November 6, 2013, the Plan shall be considered to have been adopted as of the date of that annual meeting with respect to the number of Shares available for issuance as of that date. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10 to the contrary, Options designated as Incentive Stock Options shall not be eligible for treatment under the Code as Incentive Stock Options (and shall be deemed Non-Qualified Stock Options) to the extent that either (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares (determined as of the time of grant) with respect to which such Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Affiliate) exceeds $100,000, taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted, and (ii) such Options otherwise remain exercisable but are not exercised within three months of termination of employment (or such other period of time provided in Section 422 of the Code).
		
	10.9.
	Termination of Employment.

		
	(a)
	Due to Death or Disability. If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee or if a Participant who is a director ceases to be a director in either case by reason of death or permanent disability, each outstanding Option shall become exercisable to the extent and for such period or periods determined by the Committee but not beyond the expiration date of said Option. If a Participant dies before exercising all outstanding Options, the outstanding Options shall be exercisable by the Participant's Beneficiary.

		
	(b)
	Due to Reasons Other Than Death or Disability. Unless the Committee provides otherwise, upon any other termination of employment as an Employee or director, all rights of the Participant under this Plan shall immediately terminate without notice of any kind.

		
	11.
	Stock Appreciation Rights.

		
	11.1.
	General. An Award of a Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant, subject to terms and conditions determined by the Committee to receive upon exercise of the right an amount equal to or otherwise based on the excess of (a) the Fair Market Value of a Share at the time of exercise over (b) the exercise price of the right, as established by the Committee on the date the Award is granted. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to Participants from time to time either in tandem with, or as 

13

a component of, an Option granted under Section 10, other Awards granted under the Plan or stock options granted under any other Company equity compensation plan (“tandem SARs”) or without reference to other Awards or stock options (“freestanding SARs”). Any Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with an Option may be granted at the same time such Option is granted or at any time thereafter before exercise or expiration of such Option. The Committee may provide that the exercise of a tandem SAR will be in lieu of the exercise of the stock option or Award in connection with which the tandem SAR was granted. A tandem SAR may not be exercised at any time when the per Share Fair Market Value of the Shares to which it relates does not exceed the exercise price of the Option associated with the tandem SAR. The provisions of Stock Appreciation Rights need not be the same with respect to each grant or each recipient. All freestanding SARs shall be granted subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to Options as set forth in Section 10, and all tandem SARs shall have the same vesting, exercisability, forfeiture and termination provisions as such Award or stock option to which they relate. Subject to the foregoing sentence and the terms of the Plan, the Committee may impose such other conditions or restrictions on any Stock Appreciation Right as it shall deem appropriate.
		
	11.2.
	Exercise Price. The per Share price for exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be determined by the Committee, but shall be a price that is equal to or greater than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Award on the date of grant; provided, however, that the per Share exercise price with respect to a Stock Appreciation Right that is granted in connection with a merger or other acquisition as a substitute or replacement award for stock appreciation rights held by awardees of the acquired entity may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date such Award is granted.

		
	11.3.
	No Repricing. Other than in connection with a change in the Company's capitalization (as described in Section 25), a Stock Appreciation Right may not be re-priced without shareholder approval (including canceling previously awarded Stock Appreciation Rights and re-granting them with a lower exercise price). 

		
	11.4.
	No Reload Grants. Stock Appreciation Rights shall not be granted under the Plan in consideration for and shall not be conditioned upon the delivery of Shares to the Company in payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligation under any other employee stock option or stock appreciation right.

		
	11.5.
	Termination of Employment.

		
	(a)
	Due to Death or Disability.

		
	(i)
	If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee or if a Participant who is a director ceases to be a director, in either case by reason of death or permanent disability, each outstanding freestanding SAR shall become exercisable to the extent and for such 

14

period or periods determined by the Committee but not beyond the expiration date of said Stock Appreciation Right.
		
	(ii)
	If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee or if a Participant who is a director ceases to be a director, in either case by reason of death or permanent disability, each outstanding tandem SAR shall become exercisable to the extent and for such period or periods determined by the Committee but not beyond the expiration date of said Stock Appreciation Right. If a Participant dies before exercising all tandem SARs, the outstanding tandem SARs shall be exercisable by the Participant's Beneficiary.

		
	(b)
	Due to Reasons Other Than Death or Disability. Unless the Committee provides otherwise, upon any other termination of employment as an Employee or director, all rights of the Participant under this Plan shall immediately terminate without notice of any kind.

		
	11.6.
	Payment. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, payment shall be made in the form of cash, Shares or a combination thereof as determined by the Committee at the time the Award is granted. However, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, in no event may the payment (whether in cash or Stock) upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right exceed an amount equal to 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Stock Appreciation Right at the time of grant.

		
	12.
	Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may grant or sell Awards of Shares and Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on the Fair Market Value of, Shares. Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be in such form, and dependent on such conditions, as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, the right to receive, or vest with respect to, one or more Shares (or the equivalent cash value of such Shares) upon the completion of a specified period of service, the occurrence of an event and/or the attainment of performance objectives. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted alone or in addition to any other Awards granted under the Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine the number of Shares to be awarded to a Participant under (or otherwise related to) such Other Stock-Based Awards; whether such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be settled in cash, Shares or a combination of cash and Shares; and all other terms and conditions of such Awards (including, without limitation, the vesting provisions thereof and provisions ensuring that all Shares so awarded and issued shall be fully paid and non-assessable).

		
	13.
	Nontransferability of Rights.    Unless the Committee provides otherwise, (i) no rights under any Award will be assignable or transferable and no Participant or Beneficiary will have any power to anticipate, alienate, dispose of, pledge or encumber any rights under any Award, and (ii) the rights and the benefits of any Award may be exercised and received during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or by the Participant's legal representative. The Participant may, by completing and signing a written beneficiary designation form which is delivered to and accepted by the Company, designate a beneficiary to receive any 

15

payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards upon the Participant's death. If at the time of the Participant's death there is not on file a fully effective beneficiary designation form, or if the designated beneficiary did not survive the Participant, the person or persons surviving at the time of the Participant's death in the first of the following classes of beneficiaries in which there is a survivor, shall have the right to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards:
		
	(a)
	Participant's surviving spouse;

		
	(b)
	Equally to the Participant's children, except that if any of the Participant's children predecease the Participant but leave descendants surviving, such descendants shall take by right of representation the share their parent would have taken if living;

		
	(c)
	Participant's surviving parents equally;

		
	(d)
	Participant's surviving brothers and sisters equally; or

		
	(e)
	The legal representative of the Participant's estate.

If a person in the class surviving dies before receiving any payment and/or exercising any rights with respect to outstanding Awards (or the person's share of any payment and/or rights in case of more than one person in the class), that person's right to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards will lapse and the determination of who will be entitled to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards will be determined as if that person predeceased the Participant.
		
	14.
	Termination of Employment.

		
	14.1.
	Transfers of employment between the Company and an Affiliate, or between Affiliates, will not constitute termination of employment for purposes of any Award.

		
	14.2.
	Subject to compliance with applicable law, the Committee may specify whether any authorized leave of absence or absence for military or government service or for any other reasons will constitute a termination of employment for purposes of the Award and the Plan.

		
	15.
	Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control or Disaffiliation after the Effective Date, the Committee may (subject to Sections 25 and 31), but shall not be obligated to, (a) accelerate, vest or cause the restrictions to lapse with respect to, all or any portion of an Award, (b) cancel Awards for fair value (as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee) which, in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, may equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration to be paid in the Change in Control or Disaffiliation transaction to holders of the same number of Shares subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights (or, if no consideration is paid in any such transaction, the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights) over the 

16

aggregate exercise price of such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, and which for Performance Shares and Performance Units may be determined as if the Performance Cycle ended as of the close of the calendar quarter preceding the consummation of the Corporate Transaction or Disaffiliation, with a pro rata portion of the Award payable based upon the number of completed calendar quarters in the Performance Cycle, (c) provide for the issuance of substitute Awards that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected Awards previously granted hereunder as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, or (d) provide that for a period of at least 30 days prior to the Change in Control or Disaffiliation, Options or Awards shall be exercisable as to all Shares subject thereto and that upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, such Option or Awards shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Committee determines that, as of the date of the Change in Control or Disaffiliation, the Award has no value, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment.
		
	16.
	Qualifying Performance-Based Compensation.

		
	16.1.
	General. The Committee may specify that all or a portion of any Award is intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code; provided that the performance criteria for any portion of an Award that is intended by the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code shall be a measure based on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria selected by the Committee and specified at the time such Award is granted. The Committee shall certify the extent to which any Qualifying Performance Criteria has been satisfied, and the amount payable as a result thereof, prior to payment, settlement or vesting of any Award that is intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of Shares issued or the amount paid under an Award may be reduced by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee shall determine.

		
	16.2.
	Qualifying Performance Criteria. For purposes of this Plan, the term “Qualifying Performance Criteria” shall mean any one or more of the following performance criteria, either individually, alternatively or in any combination, applied to either the Company as a whole or to a business unit or Affiliate, either individually, alternatively or in any combination, and measured either annually or cumulatively over a period of years, on an absolute basis or relative to a pre-established target, to previous years' results or to a designated comparison group, in each case as specified and determined by the Committee:  (a) cash flow, (b) earnings per share of the Company, (c) earnings before interest, taxes and amortization, (d) share price performance, (e) return on capital, (f) return on assets or net assets, (g) revenue, (h) net earnings or net income, (i) operating income or net operating income, (j) operating profit or net operating profit, (k) operating margin or profit margin, (l) return on operating revenue, (m) return on invested capital, (n) market segment share, (o) brand recognition/acceptance, (p) customer satisfaction, (q) return on equity, (r) total shareholder return, 

17

(s) growth in sales, (t) productivity ratios, (u) expense targets, (v) working capital targets, (w) operating efficiencies, (x) sales, (y) net sales, (z) return on capital employed, (aa) pre or after tax income (before or after allocation of corporate overhead and bonuses), (bb) diluted earnings per share, or (cc) costs. The Committee may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under a Qualifying Performance Criteria to exclude any of the following events that occurs during a Performance Cycle:  (i) asset write-down, (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (iii) the effect of changes in or under provisions under tax laws, accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) accruals for reorganizations or restructuring programs, and (v) any extraordinary nonrecurring items as described in FASB Accounting Standards Codification 255-20, formerly Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to shareholders for the applicable year. Any Qualifying Performance Criteria must be objectively determinable, must be established by the Committee while the outcome for the Performance Cycle is substantially uncertain and while no more than 90 days, or if less, 25 percent of the number of days in the Performance Cycle have passed, and must otherwise meet the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.
		
	17.
	Effective Date of the Plan. The Plan was initially adopted by the Board on August 23, 2006, as the G&K Services, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and was approved by the shareholders at their November 16, 2006 annual meeting. The Plan was restated as the G&K Services, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (2010), and as such, was approved by the Board on August 19, 2010, and approved by the shareholders at their November 4, 2010 annual meeting. The Plan is restated herein as the G&K Services, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (2013), and as such, was adopted by the Board on August 22, 2013, subject to approval by the shareholders at their annual meeting scheduled for November 6, 2013. If this Plan as restated herein is not approved by the shareholders in accordance with Minnesota Statute Section 302A.437, at the next annual meeting, the Plan as restated herein shall be void, but the Plan as in existence before the restatement herein shall remain in effect. Awards issued before the date that this Plan as restated herein is approved by shareholders shall be governed by the Plan before its restatement. The Plan shall remain available for the grant of Awards until all shares available for grant have been awarded and all Awards have been settled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan may be terminated at such earlier time as the Board may determine. Termination of the Plan will not affect the rights and obligations of the Participants and the Company arising under Awards theretofore granted and then in effect.

		
	18.
	Right to Terminate Employment. Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon any Participant the right to continue in the employment of the Company or any Affiliate or affect any right which the Company or any Affiliate may have to terminate employment of the Participant.

		
	19.
	Compliance With Laws; Listing and Registration of Shares. All Awards granted under the Plan (and all issuances of Stock or other securities under the Plan) shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to the requirement that if at any time the 

18

Committee shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares covered thereby upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant of such Award or the issuance or purchase of Shares thereunder, such Award may not be exercised in whole or in part, or the restrictions on such Award shall not lapse, unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.
		
	20.
	Conditions and Restrictions Upon Securities Subject to Awards. The Committee may provide that the Shares issued upon exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or otherwise subject to or issued under an Award shall be subject to such further agreements, restrictions, conditions or limitations as the Committee in its discretion may specify prior to the exercise of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the grant, vesting or settlement of such Award, including without limitation, conditions on vesting or transferability, forfeiture or repurchase provisions and method of payment for the Shares issued upon exercise, vesting or settlement of such Award (including the actual or constructive surrender of Shares already owned by the Participant) or payment of taxes arising in connection with an Award. Without limiting the foregoing, such restrictions may address the timing and manner of any re-sales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any Shares issued under an Award, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy or pursuant to applicable law, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by the Participant and holders of other Company equity compensation arrangements, and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such re-sales or other transfers.

		
	21.
	Withholding Taxes. The Company or an Affiliate shall be entitled to:  (a) withhold and deduct from future wages of a Participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to a Participant from the Company or an Affiliate), including all payments under this Plan, or make other arrangements for the collection of (including through the sale of Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the applicable Award), all legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all federal, state, local and foreign withholding and employment-related tax requirements attributable to an Award, including, without limitation, the grant, exercise or vesting of, or payment of dividends with respect to, an Award or a disqualifying disposition of Common Stock received upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option; or (b) require a Participant promptly to remit the amount of such withholding to the Company before taking any action with respect to an Award. To the extent specified by the Committee, withholding may be satisfied by withholding Stock to be received upon exercise or vesting of an Award or by delivery to the Company of previously owned Stock. In addition, the Company may reasonably delay the issuance or delivery of Shares pursuant to an Award as it determines appropriate to address tax withholding and other administrative matters.

		
	22.
	Deferral of Payments. The Committee may, in an Award Agreement or otherwise, provide for the deferred delivery of Shares upon settlement, vesting or other events with respect to Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, or in payment or satisfaction of an Award of 

19

Performance Shares or Performance Units. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event will any deferral of the delivery of Shares or any other payment with respect to any Award be allowed if the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the deferral would result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A(1)(B) of the Code. Shares that are allocated after August 23, 2006, in connection with the deferral of an Award under the Director Deferred Compensation Plan (which includes dividend equivalents that are to be allocated under that plan after August 23, 2006, in connection with deferrals under the 1996 Director Stock Option Plan) or Shares that are allocated after August 23, 2006, under any other deferred compensation plan allowing for payment in Shares that refers specifically to this Plan, shall be issued under this Plan. Such issuances shall reduce the number of Shares available for Awards under this Plan.
		
	23.
	No Liability of Company. The Company and any Affiliate which is in existence or hereafter comes into existence shall not be liable to a Participant, Beneficiary or any other person as to:  (a) the non-issuance or sale of Stock as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the matter, the authority deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder; (b) any tax consequence to any Participant, Beneficiary or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Award granted hereunder; or (c) any provision of law or legal restriction that prohibits or restricts the transfer of Shares issued pursuant to any Award.

		
	24.
	Amendment, Modification and Termination of the Plan. The Board or Committee may at any time terminate, suspend or modify the Plan, except that the Board or Committee will not, without authorization of the shareholders of the Company, effect any change (other than through adjustment for changes in capitalization as provided in Section 25) which will:

		
	(a)
	increase the total amount of Stock which may be awarded under the Plan;

		
	(b)
	increase the individual maximum limits in Section 4.3;

		
	(c)
	change the class of persons eligible to participate in the Plan;

		
	(d)
	reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights; or

		
	(e)
	otherwise amend the Plan in any manner requiring shareholder approval by law or under listing requirements of any exchange or interdealer quotation system on which the Shares are listed.

No termination, suspension, or modification of the Plan will adversely affect any right acquired by any Participant or any Beneficiary under an Award granted before the date of termination, suspension, or modification, unless otherwise agreed to by the Participant; but, it will be conclusively presumed that any adjustment for changes in capitalization provided for in Section 25 does not adversely affect any right.

	25.
	Adjustment for Changes in Capitalization.

		
	(a)
	In the event of a reorganization, reclassification, combination of shares, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, stock dividend, dividend in kind, cash dividend (other than normal cash dividends), other distribution or other such event, each Share that has been authorized for issuance under the Plan, whether such Share is then currently subject to or may become subject to an Award under the Plan, as well as the per share limits set forth in Section 4, shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee to reflect such event, in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable. The terms of any outstanding Award shall also be adjusted by the Committee in its sole discretion as to price, number of Shares subject to such Award and other terms, including equitable substitution or proportionate adjustment, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participant rights under the Plan.

		
	(b)
	In the event of a Disaffiliation, the Committee may arrange for the assumption of Awards, or replacement of Awards with new awards based on other property or other securities (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company), by the affected Affiliate or division of the Company or by the entity that controls such Affiliate or division of the Company following such Disaffiliation (as well as any corresponding adjustments to Awards that remain based upon Company Stock).

		
	(c)
	In the event there shall be any other change in the number or kind of outstanding Shares, or any stock or other securities into which such Shares shall have been changed, or for which it shall have been exchanged, whether by reason of a merger, consolidation or otherwise, then the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be effected. The terms of any outstanding Award shall also be adjusted to reflect the foregoing events. In the event of such change described in this subsection the Committee may accelerate the time or times at which any Award may be exercised and may provide for cancellation of such accelerated Awards that are not exercised within a time prescribed by the Committee in its sole discretion. 

		
	(d)
	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any adjustment to Options granted pursuant to this Plan intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options shall comply with the requirements, provisions and restrictions of the Code, and no change shall be made that would result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A(1)(B) of the Code.

		
	(e)
	No right to purchase fractional Shares shall result from any adjustment in Awards pursuant to this Section 25. In case of any such adjustment, the Shares subject to the Award shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. Notice of any adjustment shall be given by the Company to each Participant, which 

21

shall have been so adjusted and such adjustment (whether or not notice is given) shall be effective and binding for all purposes of the Plan.
		
	26.
	Transferability. Unless the Award Agreement (or an amendment thereto authorized by the Committee) expressly states that the Award is transferable, no Award granted under this Plan, nor any interest in such Award, may be sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee may grant an Award or amend an outstanding Award to provide that the Award is transferable or assignable (a) in the case of a transfer without the payment of any consideration, to any “family member” as such term is defined in Section A.1(a)(5) of the General Instructions to Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as such may be amended from time to time, and (b) in any transfer described in clause (i) or (ii) of Section A.1(a)(5) of the General Instructions to Form S-8 under the 1933 Act as amended from time to time, provided that following any such transfer or assignment the Award will remain subject to substantially the same terms applicable to the Award while held by the Participant to whom it was granted, as modified as the Committee shall determine appropriate, and as a condition to such transfer the transferee shall execute an agreement agreeing to be bound by such terms; provided further, that an Incentive Stock Option may be transferred or assigned only to the extent consistent with Section 422 of the Code. Any purported assignment, transfer or encumbrance that does not qualify under this Section 26 shall be void and unenforceable against the Company.

		
	27.
	International Participants. With respect to Participants who reside or work outside the United States of America and who are not (and who are not expected to be) “covered employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend the terms of the Plan or Awards with respect to such Participants in order to conform such terms with the requirements of local law or to obtain more favorable tax or other treatment for a Participant, the Company or an Affiliate. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 10.2 and 11.2, where applicable foreign law requires that a compensatory stock right be priced based upon a specific price averaging method and period, an Award granted in accordance with such applicable foreign law will be treated as meeting the requirements of Section 10.2 or 11.2, provided that the averaging period does not exceed 30 days.

		
	28.
	Other Benefit Plans. All Awards shall constitute a special incentive payment to the Participant and shall not be taken into account in computing the amount of salary or compensation of the Participant for the purpose of determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit-sharing, bonus, life insurance or other benefit plan of the Company or under any agreement between the Company and the Participant, unless such plan or agreement specifically provides otherwise.

		
	29.
	Written Materials; Electronic Documents. Electronic documents may be substituted for any written materials required by the terms of the Plan, including, without limitation, Award Agreements.

		
	30.
	Choice of Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to conflicts of laws, and except as otherwise 

22

provided in the pertinent Award Agreement, any and all disputes between a Participant and the Company or any Affiliate relating to an Award shall be brought only in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
		
	31.
	Section 409A. Notwithstanding other provisions of the Plan or any Award agreements thereunder, no Award shall be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified under this Plan in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon a Participant. In the event that it is reasonably determined by the Committee that, as a result of Section 409A of the Code, payments in respect of any Award under the Plan may not be made at the time contemplated by the terms of the Plan or the relevant Award Agreement, as the case may be, without causing the Participant holding such Award to be subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code, the Company will make such payment on the first day that would not result in the Participant incurring any tax liability under Section 409A of the Code.
