Deferred Compensation Plan

 EXHIBIT 10.11 
 UPS Deferred Compensation Plan 
 Enrollment 2011 

 July 22, 2010 
 Dear UPSer: 
 The UPS Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) is a non-qualified plan
established to allow you to make salary deferrals in addition to contributions you make to the UPS Savings Plan. This booklet is your 2011 Summary Plan Description/Prospectus, which explains both tax and investment advantages and risks associated
with this Plan. 
 The enrollment period begins on Friday, July 30, 2010 and ends on Friday, August 27, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern
Time. The maximum amount you can save from your monthly or semi-monthly pay is 35 percent. You may also elect up to 100 percent of a half month bonus, and your 2011 cash award from the Management Incentive Program (MIP). 

Even if you choose not to make contributions from your direct pay, you may want to consider electing 100 percent of any refund of excess pre-tax
contributions you may receive from the UPS Savings Plan if the Savings Plan fails the 2011 Average Deferral Percentage (ADP) Test. Please note that under current law, any elections you make to the 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Feature are
irrevocable, whether or not you are a UPS employee. For example, if you elect to defer a future ADP refund and subsequently retire, the ADP refund will be deferred into your Plan account. 
 In November of 2009, the Plan’s Core Funds lineup was expanded to include three new index funds, providing further diversification opportunities. The new funds are the US TIPS Index Fund, the US Real
Estate Index Fund, and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund. They are all managed by BlackRock Institutional Trust Company, N.A. An additional change occurred in April of this year when the Stable Value Fund was removed and replaced by the
Short-Term Bond Index Fund. The Short-Term Bond Index Fund is managed by State Street Global Advisors. Additional information on the fund changes can be found on the Plan Web site. 
 You may enroll in the 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Feature for Plan year 2011 online at the Plan Web site at http://upssavings.ingplans.com. See page 22 for enrollment instructions. Please keep
in mind that this will be the only opportunity you will have to enroll in the Plan for the 2011 calendar year. We continue to strive toward our goal of providing you with a Plan that will assist you in reaching your financial goals. 

Sincerely, 
 Mary Ann Tweddle 

Corporate Retirement and Financial Portfolio Manager

 Q. What is the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan? 
 A. The UPS Deferred Compensation
Plan (the “Plan”) is a non-qualified plan that has been established to allow you to defer up to 35 percent of your monthly or semi-monthly compensation. You may also elect to defer up to 100 percent of your half month bonus and the cash
portion of your MIP award, and 100 percent of any UPS Savings Plan Average Deferral Percentage (“ADP”) refund for the 2011 Plan Year. 

During the Plan’s annual enrollment period (Friday, July 30, 2010 – Friday, August 27, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time), you may elect
to defer from your 2011 monthly or semi-monthly compensation, 2011 half month bonus, the cash portion of your 2011 MIP award, and any 2011 ADP refund. Even if you do not choose to participate in the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan from your direct
pay, you may want to consider electing to defer 100 percent of any refund of pre-tax contributions you may receive from the UPS Savings Plan in the event the UPS Savings Plan fails the ADP Test for Plan Year 2011. 

Should the UPS Savings Plan fail the 2011 ADP Test, distributions will occur in March 2012. By electing to defer any pre-tax refund resulting from the
2011 ADP Test, you will defer taxation on the distribution. You will be issued a Form W2-C in March 2012 for the filing of your 2011 tax return, which supports the movement of the pre-tax refund from your UPS Savings Plan account to your UPS
Deferred Compensation Plan account. 
 Neither any Roth 401(k) contributions distributed to satisfy the 2011 ADP Test nor earnings associated
with the excess contributions may be deferred to the Plan. You will receive a Form 1099-R in January 2013 for any earnings received as the result of the refund, which must be reported on your 2012 tax return in April 2013. 

Please note that your deferrals into the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan will be in addition to your deferrals into the UPS Savings Plan. You may defer
one to 35 percent of your monthly or semi-monthly pay, up to 100 percent of your half month bonus and the cash portion of your 2011 MIP award on a pre-tax basis into the UPS Savings Plan, up to the annual maximum. If you are age 50 by the end of
2011, you may also elect a catch-up contribution to the UPS Savings Plan, up to the annual maximum. For 2011, we anticipate that the annual contribution limits for regular and catch-up contributions will be indexed for inflation. However, the limits
have not yet been announced by the Internal Revenue Service. For purposes of illustration, this booklet will use the annual 2010 maximums: $16,500 for regular pre-tax contributions and $5,500 for catch-up contributions. The Plan also allows
non-employee directors of United Parcel Service, Inc. to defer 100 percent of their retainer and meeting fees. 

 Q. What is a non-qualified plan? 
 A. A non-qualified plan is a plan which does not meet the tax code requirements for a qualified retirement plan and is not subject to most ERISA requirements. Amounts contributed to a non-qualified
plan remain part of the company’s general assets. These assets are subject to the claims of UPS’s and your employer’s creditors, and in the event of UPS’s or your employer’s insolvency or bankruptcy, your interest in the
Plan could be entirely lost. 
 Because of the additional risk associated with non-qualified plans, only non-employee directors and senior level
employees may be offered the opportunity to participate. 
 A manager’s base salary is $11,750 per month plus half month pay of $5,875 plus
a MIP cash portion of $23,500 (for illustration purposes only, the MIP factor is assumed to be 2) for total annual eligible compensation of $170,375. The manager would like to defer the maximum 35 percent of monthly or semi-monthly pay, 100 percent
of the half month bonus, and 100 percent of the cash portion of MIP to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan versus only contributing the maximum $16,500 (actual amount to be determined) per year in the UPS Savings Plan. The manager also elects to
defer any return of excess pre-tax contributions distributed as the result of an ADP Test failure for UPS Savings Plan year 2011.

 Should the UPS Savings Plan
fail the 2011 ADP Test, distributions will occur in March 2012 and are taxable on the 2012 tax return. By electing to defer any pre-tax refund resulting from the 2011 ADP Test, the manager will defer 2012 taxation on the pre-tax refund. 

Q. How does salary deferral under the qualified UPS Savings Plan differ from the salary deferral under the non-qualified UPS Deferred Compensation
Plan? 
 A.

	1	 If not rolled over.

	2	 “Hardship” definition is more stringent than in the UPS Savings Plan. 

Q. Does this mean I will have separate salary deferral accounts for the UPS Savings Plan and the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan? 

A. Yes, the UPS Savings Plan and the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan are two separate plans. You will receive a separate itemized annual statement
for each account you have in the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan. Statements may be viewed online at any time through the Plan Web site at http://upssavings.ingplans.com. 
 Eligibility 
 Q. Who is eligible to participate in the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan?

 A. You are eligible to participate in the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan if, as of July 30, 2010, you are a region department
manager or have equal or greater managerial responsibilities at UPS or one of the UPS authorized subsidiaries, are eligible to participate in the UPS Savings Plan and are not domiciled in Puerto Rico. In addition, non-employee directors of United
Parcel Service, Inc. are eligible to participate in the Plan. 
 You will cease to be eligible to make new deferral elections in the Plan if you
no longer meet the eligibility requirements above or you separate from service with UPS and each of its subsidiaries that is treated under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and related IRS regulations and guidance
(the “409A Rules”) as a single employer with UPS for purposes of determining whether a “separation from service” has occurred (“UPS”). However, your deferrals will continue to be deducted from your compensation, half
month bonus, the cash portion of your MIP award and your ADP refund until the end of the calendar year, or in the case of certain MIP awards and the ADP refunds, until such payments are made.  

For example, if you elect to contribute monthly to the Plan in 2011 and are subsequently demoted, your contributions will continue for the duration of
2011. Should you elect to defer a 2011 UPS Savings Plan ADP refund, that deferral will be made to the Plan in March 2012, even if you are no longer an eligible employee or you have a separation from service. 

Q. Can I participate if I am promoted mid-year? 
 A. No, you must be eligible to participate in the Plan as of the date the enrollment period begins (for 2011, the enrollment period begins on Friday, July 30, 2010). 

Deferral Elections 
 Q. When can I
make an election to defer? 
 A. Elections are made during the annual enrollment period. For 2011, you can elect to defer up to 35
percent of your monthly or semi-monthly salary, up to 100 percent of your half month bonus and/or up to 100 percent of the cash portion of your MIP award, all on a pre-tax basis. 
 You may also elect to defer 100 percent of a UPS Savings Plan return of excess pre-tax contributions, should the UPS Savings Plan fail the 2011 ADP Test. An ADP deferral you elect now will be made in
March 2012. The enrollment period this year begins Friday, July 30, 2010 and ends Friday, August 27, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. 

 During the enrollment period, non-employee directors may elect to defer 100 percent of their retainer and
meeting fees. New non-employee directors may make their initial deferral election within 30 days after being named a director. 
 Q. Should I
maximize my contribution into the UPS Savings Plan before making a contribution to this Plan? 
 A. Generally, yes. The UPS Savings
Plan is a qualified retirement plan where assets are held in trust for future payment to you. Depending upon which UPS subsidiary you work for, you may be eligible for matching contributions on your pre-tax contributions to the UPS Savings Plan.
The SavingsPLUS match has been suspended indefinitely as of January 30, 2009. Additionally, distributions from the UPS Savings Plan are eligible for special tax treatment (e.g., rollover to an IRA). Because the UPS
Deferred Compensation Plan is non-qualified these benefits will be subordinate to the claims of UPS’s and your employer’s creditors. Distributions to you from the Plan will be subject to immediate taxation and are not eligible for special
tax treatment (e.g., rollover, loan, IRA). If you do not take full opportunity of your contributions to the UPS Savings Plan, you may miss the opportunity to receive the maximum amount of matching contributions that you can receive. 

A manager elects to defer 12 percent from monthly salary, 50 percent from the half month bonus and 50 percent of the cash portion of MIP into the Salary
Deferral Feature (for illustration purposes only, the MIP factor is assumed to be 2) and 100 percent of any return of excess contributions as the result of the UPS Savings Plan failure of the 2011 ADP Test. The manager also elects to defer 12
percent of monthly salary into the UPS Savings Plan. 
 Manager’s base salary is $11,750 per month x 12 months $141,000 

Manager’s half month pay 5,875 

Manager’s cash portion of MIP 23,500 

Total Annual Eligible Compensation $170,375 
 Here’s what the monthly activity would look like for the UPS Savings Plan and the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan in this example.

 Should the UPS Savings Plan fail the
2011 ADP Test, distributions will occur in March 2012 and are taxable on the 2012 tax return. By electing to defer any pre-tax refund resulting from the 2011 ADP Test, the manager 

 
will defer 2012 taxation on the distribution of the pre-tax refund. 
 Before calculating
any amount to be deferred to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan, it is recommended that you choose a percentage which results in the contribution of the maximum permissible contribution to the UPS Savings Plan. In 2010, the maximum was $16,500, or
$22,000 if you were age 50 or over. You also may receive SavingsPLUS, the match on certain amounts deferred under the UPS Savings Plan. The SavingsPLUS match has been suspended indefinitely as of
January 30, 2009. 
 A manager elects to defer the maximum 35 percent from base salary and 100 percent from half month pay and the cash
portion of MIP into the Salary Deferral Feature (for illustration purposes only, the MIP factor is assumed to be 2) and 100 percent of any return of excess pre-tax contributions as the result of the UPS Savings Plan failure of the 2011 ADP Test. The
manager also elects to defer 12 percent of base salary into the UPS Savings Plan.

 Should the UPS Savings Plan fail the

Before calculating any amount to be deferred to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan, it is recommended that you choose a percentage which results in the contribution of the maximum permissible contribution to the UPS Savings Plan. In 2010, the
maximum was $16,500, or $22,000 if you were age 50 or over. You also may receive SavingsPLUS, the match on certain amounts deferred under the UPS Savings Plan. The SavingsPLUS match has been suspended
indefinitely as of January 30, 2009. 
 Q. Will I need to wait until my UPS Savings Plan pre-tax deferral reaches the maximum for
2011 before I begin to defer funds into the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan? 
 A. No. However, it is to your advantage to defer the
maximum amount into the UPS Savings Plan. Before you decide what percentage to defer into 

 
the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan, make sure you will be deferring the maximum limit into the UPS Savings Plan. If you will be 50 or older in 2011, you will also want to make a catch-up
contribution to the UPS Savings Plan. The amount you defer into the UPS Savings Plan can be changed monthly. Your deferral percentage into the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan cannot be changed for the entire calendar year. 

Q. When will my salary deferrals under the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan begin? 
 A. Salary deferrals will begin in January 2011 and continue through December 2011. If you elect to have money deferred from your half month check, this amount will be deducted from your December
2011 half month pay. 
 The percentage of your 2011 MIP cash award that you elect to defer into the 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account will
be reflected on the Mellon Web site, where you may view it during the 2011 fall election of the 2011 MIP cash award. You will not be able to make a change to this percentage. The funds will be deferred at the time the 2011 MIP is distributed.

 If you elect to defer the refund of 2011 pre-tax contributions you receive from the UPS Savings Plan, in the event the UPS Savings Plan fails
the ADP Test for 2011, 100 percent of the pre-tax refund will be contributed to your Plan account in March 2012. You will receive a Form W-2C in March 2012 for the filing of your 2011 taxes, which will support the movement of the pre-tax refund from
the UPS Savings Plan to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan. You will receive a Form 1099-R in January 2013 for any earnings received as the result of the refund, which must be reported on your 2012 tax return in April 2013. 

Remember, even if you cease to be eligible to make new deferral elections in the future or you separate from service with UPS, your deferrals will
continue to be deducted from your 2011 compensation, half month bonus, the cash portion of your MIP award and your ADP refund for 2011. 
 Your
2005 and Beyond Account will continue to be credited with these contributions elected for 2011 even if you are no longer an eligible employee or if you have separated from service. If you are receiving monthly installments, the amount of the ADP
refund will be included in the calculation of the installments. If you previously have received a lump sum distribution, you will receive the ADP refund as an additional distribution as soon as administratively possible, but in no event later than
90 days following the event (with the actual payment date determined by UPS in its sole discretion). 
 Q. Will I see a deferral percentage
on the Mellon Web site during the 2010 fall election for the 2010 MIP cash award? 
 A. If you had previously elected to defer a
percentage of your 2010 MIP cash award to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan during the 2010 Plan enrollment period which was August 1, 2009 through August 28, 2009, that percentage will be displayed on the Mellon Web site during the MIP
election in 2010. It may not be changed. 
 The election you make now will apply to your 2011 MIP cash award,

 
and you will then see it on the Mellon Web site during the election for the 2011 MIP. 

Q. Does the ADP election I make now apply to a refund received next March? 
 A. No. The ADP election you make in August 2010 applies to the testing performed on the UPS Savings Plan for Plan year 2011. If the UPS Savings Plan fails for 2011, refunds of excess contributions
will be made in March 2012. 
 If during the 2010 enrollment period which was August 1, 2009 to August 28, 2009 you previously elected
to defer ADP excess contributions for UPS Savings Plan year 2010, 100 percent of the pre-tax refund will be contributed to your Plan account in March 2011. 
 Q. How will my salary deferral under the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan be accounted for? 

A. Any salary deferrals that you make to the Plan on or after January 1, 2005 will be credited for bookkeeping purposes to your 2005 and
Beyond Salary Deferral Account. This account will be subject to the rules set forth in this booklet. 
 Any salary deferrals you made to this
Plan prior to January 1, 2005 will continue to be credited for bookkeeping purposes in your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account. Amounts credited to this account will continue to be subject to the rules set forth in the 2004 version of the
UPS Deferred Compensation Plan Summary Plan Description booklet. 
 Q. When will my salary deferrals be credited to my account?

 A. Salary deferrals will be credited to your account as soon as practicable following each pay period, but generally no later than
ten business days after you receive the paycheck from which the deduction was made.  
 Q. Can I change my UPS Deferred Compensation
Plan annual deferral elections during the calendar year? 
 A. No, your annual election to defer salary to the UPS Deferred
Compensation Plan, once made, cannot be changed for that calendar year. Your election must be made online during the enrollment period, Friday, July 30, 2010 to August 27, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Once you make your annual deferral
election, you cannot change the deferral percentage amount until the next annual deferral election period in 2011 for Plan year 2012.  

Investment Options

investment options?

 Notes: 
  

	•	 	 ALL transactions related to UPS Stock, whether through the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan or otherwise, are subject to the UPS Insider Trading
Guidelines. You must verify that the trading window is open before you make any transactions involving UPS Stock. 

  

	•	 	 The Self-Managed Account is not available as an investment option for the Salary Deferral Feature of the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan.

  

	•	 	 Fund Fact Sheets and investment returns are available on the Plan Web site for your review at http://upssavings.ingplans.com. If you have any
questions, you may call the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan Recordkeeper at 1-800-541-6154. 

  

	•	 	 Because the Plan is non-qualified, your investment selections are for recordkeeping purposes only and no funds will be set aside or invested in the
options you select. Your selections will be used solely for purposes of determining the value of your Salary Deferral Account. 

  

	3	 The Plan will assess
a 2 percent short-term trading fee against the portion of your account balance transferred from the EAFE Fund and/or paid out as a distribution within 30 days of investment in the Fund. The 2 percent redemption fee is assessed against the gross
proceeds from the sales transaction. This short-term trading fee will only apply to a sale of the Fund due to a transfer request and/or a distribution. For this purpose, units held longest will be liquidated first and units held the shortest will be
liquidated last. The redemption fees assessed are treated as reinvested into the EAFE Fund for the benefit of all participants in the Plan with balances in the Fund. This fee is designed to offset market impact and other costs associated with
fluctuations in the EAFE Fund caused by short-term shareholder trading. 

 Q. Can I reallocate my Salary Deferral Account
balance between the investment options? 
 A. Yes, you may reallocate your Salary Deferral Account balance among the different
investment options on a daily basis. (Please note that all transactions related to UPS Stock, whether in the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan or otherwise, are subject to the UPS Insider Trading Guidelines.) You will be able to change your investment
selections by accessing your account online at http://upssavings.ingplans.com. You may also change your investment selections by calling the Information Line at 1-800-541-6154 and speaking with a Participant Services Representative Monday through
Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, except for stock market holidays. This reallocation capability includes both the new deferrals being deferred into your account and your existing investment account balance. Your account will continue
to accrue earnings or losses based on your investment elections until your Salary Deferral Account balance is fully distributed.  

Q. What are the investment risks? 
 A.
Due to the risks inherent in all investment activities, the total value of your account may be greater or smaller than your total deferrals. Additionally, because your account is unfunded, your rights to receive payments in the event of
UPS’s or your employer’s bankruptcy or insolvency will be the same as that of any other unsecured general creditor.  

Distribution Options 

 Q. When am I eligible to receive a distribution of my 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account?

 A. You are eligible to receive a distribution of your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account (a) in the event you retire or
have another “separation from service” with UPS (within the meaning of the 409A Rules), (b) in the event of a “change in control” of United Parcel Service, Inc. as defined in the 2009 UPS Incentive Compensation Plan that
also constitutes a “change in the ownership or effective control” of United Parcel Service, Inc. under 409A Rules (a “Change in Control”), or (c) in the event of your death. 

If you are entitled to a distribution of your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account as a result of your separation from service, you will receive (or
begin to receive, in the case of installments) your distribution on the first day of the calendar month that is 6 months following your separation from service. Distributions of your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account as a result of a Change in
Control or your death will be paid as soon as administratively possible, but in no event later than 90 days following the date of the Change in Control or your death (with the actual payment date determined by UPS in its sole discretion).

 If you are enrolling in the 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Feature for the first time, you will be asked to make a distribution election.
Please consider your distribution choice for your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account carefully: once made, your distribution election may not be changed. Should you fail to elect a distribution option upon your initial enrollment for funds
contributed in 2005 and subsequent years, your distribution will be paid out under the default option, the Lump Sum Payment. 
 You are eligible
to receive a distribution of your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account and your Stock Option Deferral Account (pre-2005 deferrals) in accordance with the rules set forth in the 2004 Summary Plan Description. (A copy of the 2004 Summary Plan
Description may be obtained on the Plan Web site at http://upssavings.ingplans.com or from the Corporate Compensation Department.) Please note that your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account and your Stock Option Deferral Account will not
automatically be distributed to you in the event of a Change in Control. 
 Q. What are my distribution options? 

A. The Plan provides for five distribution options: 
 Option 1: 3 Year Installment (36 monthly payments) 
 Option 2: 5 Year Installment (60
monthly payments) 
 Option 3: 7 Year Installment (84 monthly payments) 
 Option 4: 10 Year Installment (120 monthly payments) 
 Option 5: Lump Sum Payment
(one payment) - DEFAULT 
 Each installment distribution option pays out on a calendar month basis. For distributions during or after
2010, if the total balance in your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account (plus the total balance in any other account which must be aggregated with your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account under the 409A Rules) is less than the Code
Section 402(g) deferral limit in effect for the UPS Savings Plan on the date you become eligible for the distribution, you will receive a Lump Sum Payment from this account regardless of the option you selected. The 402(g) limit for 2011 has
not yet 

 
been announced. For 2010, it is $16,500. (Please note that as of January 1, 2010, there are no other accounts which must be aggregated with your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account under
409A Rules.) 

 If you made deferrals to the Plan prior to January 1, 2005, the distribution option you previously
chose for your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account will continue to apply. (If your total 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account balance is less than $20,000 as of your termination date, you will receive a Lump Sum Payment from this account
regardless of the option you have selected.) 
 A copy of the 2004 Summary Plan Description may be obtained on the Plan Web site at
http://upssavings.ingplans.com, or from the Corporate Compensation Department. 
 Q. How do I change my distribution option? 

A. After your initial enrollment, you may not change your selected (or if no selection was made, the default) distribution option for your 2005 and
Beyond Salary Deferral Account. 
 In order to change your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account distribution option, you may go
to the Plan Web site at http://upssavings.ingplans.com and print a 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Feature Distribution Election Form from the FORMS section. You may also direct your request to the Information Line at
1-800-541-6154 and speak with a Participant Services Representative. The representative will send you a form. You must complete and return the updated form to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan Recordkeeper at the address printed on it. A new
distribution option for your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account must be on file for at least 12 months in order to become effective.  
 Q. What happens to my Salary Deferral Accounts if I should die prior to receiving distribution of the entire account balance? 
 A. You may designate a beneficiary(ies) when you enroll in the Plan. Your beneficiary designation may be changed at any time, but must be the same for any accounts you have in the Plan. The balance
in your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account will be paid to your designated beneficiary(ies) (or begin to be paid, in the case of installments) in accordance with your distribution election in effect at the time of your death, as soon as
administratively possible, but in no event later than 90 days following your death (with the actual payment date determined by UPS in its sole discretion). Your beneficiary(ies) will not be able to select a distribution option. 

In the event that you have not designated a beneficiary, your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account balance will be distributed to your estate as soon
as administratively possible, but in no event later than 90 days following your death (with the actual payment date determined by UPS in its sole discretion). 
 Amounts credited to your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account or your Stock Optional Deferral Account will be distributed to your beneficiary(ies) in accordance with your distribution election.
However, your beneficiary(ies) may elect to withdraw your entire 2004 and Before Salary Deferral or your Stock Option Deferral Account balances (pre-2005 deferrals) at any time. Ten percent of the total value of those accounts at the time of the
withdrawal will be forfeited. Withdrawals will be paid as a lump sum. Note that this option is not available for deferrals made to your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account. 

 Q. How do I designate a beneficiary? 
 A. When you initially enroll, you will designate one or more beneficiaries online. This beneficiary designation can be changed at any time using a Beneficiary Designation Form. 

Note: Your beneficiary designation applies to any of your UPS Deferred Compensation Plan accounts (2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account,
2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account and/or Stock Option Deferral Account). 
 Q. How do I change my beneficiary? 

A. To make a beneficiary change, you may go to the Plan Web site at http://upssavings.ingplans.com and print a Beneficiary Designation Form from
the FORMS section. You may also direct your request to the Information Line at 1-800-541-6154 and speak with a Participant Services Representative. The representative will mail you a Beneficiary Designation Form. You must
complete and return the updated beneficiary form to the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan Recordkeeper at the address printed on the form. 

Withdrawal Options 
 Q. May I take a
hardship withdrawal? 
 A. Hardship withdrawals are available under very limited circumstances. In the event of an unforeseeable
emergency which results in a severe financial hardship, you may petition the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan Committee for a distribution of the amount reasonably necessary to meet your financial need. This definition of hardship is more stringent
than the hardship provision in a qualified 401(k) plan, and does not, for instance, include college expenses or costs in connection with a home purchase. It generally encompasses hardship generated by unforeseen circumstances such as medical
expenses, loss of property due to casualty and other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond your control. A hardship withdrawal may not be made to the extent the hardship is or may be relieved
through reimbursement, insurance, liquidation of your assets (under certain circumstances) or the cessation of Plan deferrals. The Committee may approve or deny the request in its sole discretion. Hardship withdrawals will be paid in a lump sum as
soon as administratively possible, but in no event later than 90 days following approval by the Committee (with the actual payment date determined by UPS in its sole discretion). 
 Q. May I take a withdrawal for reasons other than hardship? 
 A. You may withdraw all
of your 2004 and Before Salary Deferral Account balance or your Stock Option Deferral Account balance (pre-2005 deferrals) at any time. However, you will forfeit ten percent of the total value of your accounts. Withdrawals will be paid in a lump
sum. Other than in the event of hardship as described above, you may not withdraw amounts credited to your 2005 and Beyond Salary Deferral Account. 
 Q. May I take a loan? 
 A. Unlike the UPS Savings Plan or other qualified 401(k)
plans, loans are not permitted under the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan.  

 Q. May I roll over my deferred account balance? 

A. Unlike qualified 401(k) plans, rollovers are not permitted under the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan.  

Taxes 
 Q. Am I taxed on my deferrals
or earnings that are credited to my account? 
 A. Under current law, neither the deferrals nor the earnings on those amounts are
subject to federal income tax until they are withdrawn from the Plan, as long as you make your election before you earn the income. All states with income taxes, except New Jersey, follow the federal law. As a result, other than in the state of New
Jersey, there will be no state income tax liability until you actually receive a distribution. Distributions from the Plan will be taxed as ordinary income upon receipt. You should consult with your legal counsel or tax advisor concerning your
specific state or local city and county tax laws. 
 Note: We intend for the Plan to satisfy the 409A Rules. If the
Plan does not satisfy these rules, you may be subject to additional taxes and interest.  

 Q. What about Social Security and Medicare Taxes? 

A. Deferred amounts are subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes at the time of the deferral (when they are deducted from your pay). However,
the distributions from the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan, including the earnings, are not subject to these taxes under current law. Payments from the Plan will not reduce the Social Security benefits after retirement, as they do not represent wages
for service performed at that time.  
 Note: Non-employee directors are not subject to Social Security and Medicare
taxes on amounts deferred under the Plan. 

 Q. How will my distribution payments be reported? 

A. Whether you are an active, terminated, or retired employee, your distribution payments will be reported to you on a Form W-2. Payments to
beneficiaries, in the event of your death, will be reported on a Form 1099. Payments to non-employee directors will be reported on a Form 1099-MISC. 
 Q. How will my distributions be taxed? 
 A. Under current law, distributions from the
UPS Deferred Compensation Plan generally are taxed as ordinary income when received, and no special tax advantages or penalties apply. Federal, state and local income taxes (see page 20 for the exception - New Jersey) will be withheld from your
distribution payments when they are actually made.  
 Note: No federal, state or local income taxes will be
withheld from payments made to non-employee directors, unless requested by the non-employee directors. 
 Q. Is my distribution eligible to
be rolled over to an IRA? 
 A. No, because this is not a tax-qualified plan under the Code, distributions are not eligible to be
rolled over into an IRA.  
 Q. Will benefits paid to my beneficiaries be included in my gross estate for federal tax purposes?

 A. Yes, the cumulative amounts in your account at the time of death will be included in your estate. 

Note: You should consult with your own legal counsel or tax advisor concerning your beneficiary(ies) designations and plan to
obtain the most appropriate result for your personal situation.

 Q. Do I need to do anything if I do not want to participate in 2011? 
 A. No.

 Plan Administrator 
 Q.
Who is the administrator and how can I check my account balance? 
 A. The administrator for the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan is the
administrative committee appointed by the Salary Committee of United Parcel Service, Inc., and the recordkeeper for the Plan is ING Institutional Plan Services, LLC. The Plan administrator has the exclusive responsibility and complete discretionary
authority to control the operation, management and administration of the Plan, with all powers necessary to enable it properly to carry out those responsibilities, including (but not limited to) the power to construe the Plan, to determine
eligibility for benefits, to settle disputed claims and to resolve all administrative, interpretive, operational, equitable and other questions that arise under the Plan. The decisions of the Plan administrator on all matters within the scope of its
authority will be final and binding. To the extent a discretionary power or responsibility under the Plan is expressly assigned to a person by the Plan administrator, that person will have complete discretionary authority to carry out that power or
responsibility, and that person’s decisions on all matters within the scope of that person’s authority will be final and binding. Although you will receive an annual statement, you can determine the

 
balance in your account at any time by accessing your account online at http://upssavings.ingplans.com. 
 You can also call the Information Line at 1-800-541-6154 and speak with a Participant Services Representative. Participant Services Representatives are available from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time
Monday through Friday, except for stock market holidays. 
 Plan Amendment or Termination 

Q. Can the Plan be amended or discontinued? 
 A. Yes. United Parcel Service of America, Inc. (“UPS America”) has established the Plan with the expectation that it will be continued indefinitely. Nevertheless, UPS America retains the
right to amend or terminate all or part of the Plan at any time. However, your Salary Deferral Accounts and the number of shares credited to your Stock Option Account, at the time of any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan, cannot be
reduced (except by reason of future investment losses). Note: UPS America may be required to make further amendments to the Plan in order to comply with the federal tax law applicable to non-qualified deferred compensation plans. You
will be notified of those amendments if they materially affect information provided in this Summary Plan Description/Prospectus. 

Miscellaneous 
 Q. Which documents
govern the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan? 
 A. The terms governing the UPS Deferred Compensation Plan are set forth in this UPS
Deferred Compensation Plan document, which also serves as the Summary Plan Description and Prospectus.  
 Q. Can I transfer, pledge
or assign my accounts? 
 A. No. Rights to your Salary Deferral Accounts cannot be transferred, assigned, pledged or alienated. You
may not pledge or assign your account balances to secure a bank loan or other indebtedness. 
 Q. Are there any restrictions on my ability to
sell shares of UPS Stock that 
 I receive in a distribution under the Plan? 
 A. Each person who controls, or is a member of a group that controls, or who is under common control with, UPS and who distributes any shares of UPS Stock obtained through a distribution under the
Plan, and any broker or dealer who participates in any such distribution, may, in connection with such a distribution, be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”)
unless the shares are sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. This brochure may not be used in connection with any resales of any shares received by such a person. In addition, the filing requirements of Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act’) and the short-swing profit rules under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act may apply to purchases and sales of UPS Stock, including shares received in a distribution under the Plan
and subsequent resale of these shares, by any person who is an executive officer, director or beneficial owner of 10 percent or more of UPS’s outstanding common stock. 
 Officers and directors should consult with the UPS Legal Department before offering for sale any of the shares of UPS Stock received in a distribution

 
under the Plan so that we may ensure compliance with Rule 144, Section 16 and any other applicable provisions of federal and state securities laws. To the extent any transaction could, in
the absolute discretion of UPS, cause a participant to be subject to liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, UPS may refuse to permit such transaction. In addition, UPS may establish procedures to ensure that transactions under the Plan
will be executed in accordance with the requirements of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and any regulations promulgated thereunder. 

Q. What Claims Procedures apply under the Plan? 
 A. Any claim for a benefit under the Plan must be filed and resolved in accordance with the claims procedure provided under the UPS Savings Plan, which claims procedure is incorporated in the Plan
by reference, except that the Plan administrator is the entity with whom a claim for review should be filed under the Plan, and the Plan administrator has absolute discretion to resolve any claims under the Plan.  

Q. What other rules apply under the Plan? 

A. The following rules also apply under the Plan: Construction: The Plan will be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Georgia. Headings have been added only for convenience of reference and will have no substantive effect whatsoever. All references to the singular include the plural, and all references to the plural include the singular.  

No Contract of Employment: Nothing contained in the Plan will be construed as a contract of employment between UPS and any employee, as a right of
any employee to be continued in the employment of UPS, or as a limitation of the right of UPS to discharge an employee with or without cause at any time. 
 No Liability: No Plan participant or beneficiary will have the right to look to, or have any claim whatsoever against, any officers, director, employee or agent of UPS in his or her individual
capacity for the distribution of his or her Account. 
 ERISA: UPS intends that the Plan come within the various exceptions and
exemptions to ERISA for a plan maintained for a “select group of management or highly compensated employees” as described in Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, and any ambiguities in the Plan will be construed to effect
this intent.

 ARTICLE I – STATEMENT OF PURPOSE 

This Plan is intended to provide a means whereby an Employer may provide a measure of financial security for its qualified Employees and
their Beneficiaries upon retirement or death. It is intended that the Plan shall qualify as a pension plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. 
 ARTICLE II – DEFINITIONS 
 The following words and phrases, when used
in this Plan, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, shall have the following meanings: 
 2.1 Accrued Benefit.
The amount from time to time payable to a Participant in the form of a Single Life Annuity beginning on the Normal Retirement Date of the Participant determined in accordance with the Plan, including any applicable Supplement, as if the
Participant had incurred a Termination of Employment at such time, but determined without regard to whether the Participant has a vested right to such amount. 
 2.2 Actuary. An actuary, enrolled by the Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries, selected by the Sponsor. 

2.3 Affiliate. Any corporation or other business entity that from time to time is, along with the Sponsor, a member
of a controlled group of businesses (as defined in Sections 414(b) and 414(c) of the Code, a member of an affiliated service group (as defined in Section 414(m) of the Code), or a member of a group defined in 414(o) of the Code; and any other
business entity that is an Employer. A business entity is an Affiliate only while a member of such group. 
 2.4 Annuity
Starting Date. The first day of the first period for which an amount is paid in accordance with the Plan (not the actual day of payment); or, for payments in a form other than an annuity, the date as of which distribution is made.

 2.5 Average Total Earnings. The greater of the earnings in the following two earnings computation periods:

  

	(a)	The monthly average of earnings received during the thirty-six full months immediately before the date the Participant most recently ceased to be a full-time Employee
in Covered Employment, multiplied by twelve; and 

  

	(b)	The monthly average of earnings received during the highest three of the five most recent full calendar years ending on or before the day the Participant most recently
ceased to be a full-time Employee in Covered Employment, multiplied by twelve. 

  
 - 3 -

 Notwithstanding the above, the earnings of a Participant who most recently ceased to be in
Covered Employment before May 1, 2003, but who had not yet incurred a Termination of Employment as of May 1, 2003, shall be determined with respect to the thirty-six month or five calendar year period ending on April 30, 2003.

 Computation of a Participant’s Average Total Earnings shall be subject to the following: 

 

	(a)	For purposes of calculating Average Total Earnings during the final thirty-six month computation period, if the Participant has no earnings during one or more of his
final thirty-six months, then his Average Total Earnings shall be the average of his monthly earnings during such final thirty-six months in which he had earnings; 

 

	(b)	If his base salary has been reduced because of a decline in his physical or mental capacity to continue his former assignment, or because he was transferred to a
position of reduced responsibilities or his assignment was abolished or its responsibilities curtailed, his Average Total Earnings shall be computed as if his base salary had not been reduced; 

 

	(c)	If he received disability income from any employee welfare benefit plan maintained by his Employer or in which his Employer participates, then his average monthly
earnings for the computation periods for determination of Average Total Earnings shall be computed: 

  

	 	(i)	On the assumption that for each month of such computation periods during which month he received disability income under such plan he had monthly earnings equal to but
not less than his base salary for the month immediately preceding the month in which his disability income commenced under such plan; and 

  

	 	(ii)	With respect to the balance of such computation periods, if any, by applying the actual earnings received; 

 

	(d)	If a Participant, who was employed by a member of the Monsanto Controlled Group on August 31, 1987, incurs a Termination of Employment prior to completing
thirty-six months of service with a member of the Controlled Group, Average Total Earnings shall include monthly earnings during the computation period from the Monsanto Controlled Group; and 

 

	(e)	Effective on and after January 1, 2001, in the event a Participant’s Average Total Earnings in any year or twelve-month period falling within the applicable
computation period described in this section shall be based on less than 2080 Hours of Service, such Average Total Earnings shall be adjusted to reflect 2080 Hours of Service in such year or twelve-month period for purposes of this Section. The
adjusted Average Total Earnings shall be determined by dividing 2080 by the number of actual Hours of Service for such year or twelve-month period, and then multiplying this factor by the actual Average Total Earnings for such year or twelve-month
period. 

  
 - 4 -

 Average Total Earnings shall include the total amount of cash paid to an Employee, or that
would be paid to an Employee but for amounts withheld from payroll for taxes or pursuant to a salary reduction agreement entered into by the Employee, by a member of the Controlled Group that is comprised of base salary and incentive pay that is
determined on the basis of individual performance. Pay other than base salary that is not determined on the basis of individual performance, such as moving expenses and cost of living supplements for temporary assignments, are not included in
Average Total Earnings. In no event shall pay used in the calculation of Average Total Earnings exceed one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of base salary for any calendar year or portion thereof. For this purpose, a bonus received in a
calendar year shall be treated as if one-twelfth of the bonus had been received in each month of such calendar year. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in no event shall the earnings of a Participant taken into account under this Plan for
any Plan Year exceed the maximum amount permitted in Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for that Plan Year ($245,000 for 2009) as adjusted from time to time. The $200,000 compensation limit shall apply to years beginning prior to January 1,
2002, in determining benefit accruals after December 31, 2001. If the period for determining earnings in a Plan Year is less than the full Plan Year, the maximum amount for that Plan Year shall be reduced proportionately. 

2.6 Beneficiary. The person or persons validly designated by a Participant to receive whatever benefits may be
payable on or after the death of the Participant, other than a person designated as a joint annuitant under a joint and survivor form of annuity. A person designated as such a joint annuitant may not name a beneficiary. 

2.7 Board of Directors. The Board of Directors of the Sponsor. 

2.8 Code. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Reference to a section of the Code shall include that section and any
comparable section or sections of any future legislation that amends, supplements or supersedes said section. 
 2.9
Controlled Group. The Sponsor and each Affiliate. 
 2.10 Covered Employment. All
service performed for an Employer for which an Employee is compensated on a salaried basis while classified by the Employer as an employee (without regard to any retroactive reclassification) assigned to any of the following locations or job

	(a)	The amount specified in Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code, as adjusted for any applicable increases in the cost of living in accordance with Section 415(d) of
the Code, as in effect on the last day of the Plan Year; and 

  

	(b)	One-hundred percent (100%) of the average compensation of such Participant for his high three (3) consecutive Plan Years as provided in Section 415 of
the Code. 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this section, the annual benefit, when paid in the form
of a joint and survivor annuity, can be as great as that of a Single Life Annuity for the Participant, not in excess of the limitations contained in the first sentence of this section, plus a survivor annuity at the same level for the
Participant’s Spouse. 
 For purposes of this section, Section 415 of the Code, which limits the benefits and
contributions under qualified plans, is hereby incorporated by reference; provided that the repeal of Section 415(e) of the Code, which is effective for limitation years beginning on or after January 1, 2000, shall apply only to a
Participant whose Accrued Benefit increases on or after January 1, 2000. The modified limitation for benefits beginning before or after a Participant’s Normal Retirement Age shall be determined in accordance with applicable regulations
using the actuarial assumptions prescribed in Article IX, except as otherwise required by Section 415(b)(2)(E) of the Code. 
 For purposes of this section, compensation shall mean wages within the meaning of Section 3401(a) of the Code (for purposes of income tax withholding at the source) but determined without regard to

purposes of this Section, compensation generally must be paid or treated as paid to the Employee before the severance from employment of the Employee. However, compensation paid by the later of 2 1/2 months after the severance from employment of an Employee or the
end of the limitation year that includes the date of severance from employment of the Employee shall be treated as compensation to the extent such amounts are compensation for services rendered that would have been paid absent a severance from
employment, payments of accrued vacation or other leave the Employee would have been able to use if employment had continued, or payments of unfunded nonqualified compensation that would have been paid at the same time if the Employee had continued
in employment. For purposes of this Section, severance from employment means termination of common law employment; unless, in the case of a sale of substantially all of the assets of a business, the Employee is employed by the buyer of the business
immediately after the sale and the buyer adopts this Plan or a successor qualified plan that accepts the assets and liabilities of this Plan with respect to such Employee; or, in the case of cessation of affiliated company status, such former
affiliated company or a member of its new controlled group adopts this Plan or a successor qualified plan that accepts the assets and liabilities of the Plan with respect to such Employee.

an election pursuant to a plan or plans governed by Section 125, Section 132(f)(4), Section 401(k) or Section 403(b) of the Code (inclusively). 
 8.2 Reduction of Benefits. Effective on or after January 1, 2000, reduction of benefits or contributions to all plans, where required to comply with Section 8.1, shall be
accomplished by reducing the Participant’s benefit under any defined benefit plans maintained by the Company in which he participated, such reduction to be made first with respect to the plan in which he most recently accrued benefits and
thereafter in such priority as shall be determined by the Plan Administrators and the administrators of such other plans.

of the Participant with a survivor annuity for the life of his Spouse which is equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the annuity payable to the Participant during the joint lives of the Participant and his Spouse. In the case of a

 9.3 Waiver of Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. An election to receive an optional form of benefit in lieu of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity may be made (and any prior such
election may be revoked) by a Participant entitled to receive his retirement income in such form, subject to the following:

respect to the Spouse who signs the consent, or the designated Spouse whose consent cannot be so obtained); 

  

	(d)	Both the waiver of the Participant and the consent of the Spouse, if such a consent is required, must specify the nonspouse beneficiary (or class of beneficiaries) who
will receive the benefit and must specify the particular optional form of benefit. 

  

	(e)	 Any such election may be revoked by the Participant by a subsequent election made in accordance with this subsection during the Election Period
prescribed in Section 9.4. Any such election also may be changed by the Participant by a subsequent election made

in accordance with this subsection during the Election Period prescribed in Section 9.4; however, so long as the Spouse of the Participant is alive, any such election for which spousal
consent is required may be changed to specify a different nonspouse beneficiary or a different optional form of payment only if, during such Election Period and in a manner that satisfies all of the consent requirements prescribed in this
subsection, either (i) the Spouse consents specifically to the change, or (ii) the Spouse consents generally to a change of that kind, including an acknowledgment that the Spouse has the right to limit consents to specific beneficiaries
and forms of payment but voluntarily relinquishes such rights. 

 A Spouse may not revoke a consent after it
is made. 
 9.4 Notice and Election Rules. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6 (payment of
benefits under $1,000), payment of benefits under this Plan shall not commence until after the notice and election requirements of this Article have been satisfied.

availability of additional specific information of the financial effect of making such an election. If the Annuity Starting Date is before the Participant’s Normal Retirement Age, such notice shall explain the right of the Participant to defer
receipt of the distribution until Normal Retirement Age. 
 An election to begin receiving benefits, and to receive an optional
form of benefits, must be made in the Election Period of the Participant and before the date the distribution commences. 

Subject only to the following exceptions, the Election Period of a Participant shall not commence until at least thirty (30) days
after such notice is provided; shall end on the Annuity Starting Date; and shall not extend more than ninety (90) days before the Annuity Starting Date.

distributions commence shall be treated as the Annuity Starting Date for purposes of the provisions of this section (notice and election procedures) and Section 2.32 (definition of Spouse). 

A Participant can waive the requirement that such Election Period extend for at least thirty (30) days; provided the distribution
commences more than seven (7) days after such notice is provided. 
 9.5 Optional Forms of Payment. Subject
to Sections 9.3 and 9.4, a Participant may elect, in lieu of any benefit to which he would otherwise be entitled under this Article, to receive his benefit in one of the following forms; provided that, the benefit so elected shall have an actuarial

may elect to receive such 

  
 - 27 -

	 	 
benefit in the form of an adjusted annuity payable in a greater amount during the period before commencement of Social Security benefits, and a correspondingly reduced amount, actuarially
determined, after such commencement, such that the total income, including both the adjusted annuity payable under this Plan and the Social Security benefit to which such person is expected to be entitled, shall be as nearly uniform as possible both

	 	(i)	The applicant shall specify the date up to which the increased annuity shall be payable, which shall be not earlier than the earliest date for which he is eligible for
Social Security retirement benefits and not later than his Social Security Retirement Age, and in no event earlier than the date at which his annuity under this Plan shall commence; 

 

	 	(ii)	The amount of Social Security benefit to be used in the computation shall be estimated by the Plan Administrator based on Social Security benefit levels no greater than

 9.6 Distribution of Small Amounts.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant or Surviving Spouse becomes entitled to a retirement income or death benefit under this Plan the present value of which exceeds $1,000 but does not exceed $5,000 at the time of
distribution, subject to the consent of the Participant as provided below, the present value of such benefit (but not less than all of such amount) shall be distributed in one lump-sum payment as soon as administratively feasible after the
termination of employment of the Participant. 
 Such consent to distribution must be made in accordance with such procedures as
the Plan Administrator may specify after the Participant receives a notice as described below, and must be made within the one hundred eighty (180) day period ending on the date of distribution.

  
 - 28 -

 
The written notice must describe the Participant’s right to defer receipt of the distribution until Normal Retirement age, and a description of the consequences of failing to defer such
receipt. 
 Such distribution may commence less than thirty (30) days after the notice required by the preceding paragraph
is provided, provided that: 
  

	(a)	The Plan Administrator clearly informs the Participant that the Participant has a right to a period of at least thirty (30) days after receiving the notice to
consider the decision of whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a particular distribution option), and 

  

	(b)	The Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively elects a distribution. 

The written consent to the distribution may not be made before the Participant receives the notice and must not be made more than one
hundred eighty (180) days before the date of distribution. 
 The consent of the spouse is not required for such a lump-sum
distribution. 
 In the event a Participant or Surviving Spouse becomes entitled to a retirement income or death benefit under
this Plan the present value of which does not exceed $1,000 at the time of distribution to the Participant, the present value of such benefit (but not less than all of such amount) shall be distributed in one lump-sum payment as soon as
administratively feasible after the death or Termination of Employment of the Participant. Furthermore, if the present value of a vested terminated benefit of a Participant payable pursuant to Section 6.1 is less than $1,000 as of the last day
of any Plan Year after Termination of Employment of the Participant, the present value of such benefit (but not less than all of such amount) shall be distributed in one lump-sum payment as soon as administratively feasible after the end of such
year. 
 The present value of a lump-sum distribution shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit payable to the
Participant commencing at his Normal Retirement Date, determined on the basis of the “Applicable Interest Rate” and the “Applicable Mortality Table” as defined in Section 417(e)(3) of the Code. For purposes of this
paragraph, the Applicable Interest Rate for a distribution made in a Plan Year shall be the rate specified by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for the second month preceding the first day of the Plan Year. 

9.7 Benefit Upon Re-employment After Cash-out. If payment of a lump-sum distribution is made pursuant to Section 9.6
no later than the close of the second Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the recipient incurred a Termination of Employment, the Average Total Earnings and the Benefit Service with respect to which the Participant shall have received the
lump-sum distribution shall be disregarded completely for purposes of determining the benefit to which the Participant shall be entitled under this Plan upon his subsequent re-employment. 

In the event a Participant shall receive such a lump-sum distribution after such time, the Benefit Service on which such a lump-sum
distribution was based shall count toward computing 

  
 - 29 -

 
the benefit of the Participant on a subsequent Termination of Employment, but such a subsequent benefit shall be offset by the amount of retirement income previously paid to the Participant in
the form of the lump-sum distribution. 
 9.8 Actuarial Equivalent. The value of any form of benefit payable under
this Plan, other than a lump-sum distribution, shall be actuarially equivalent to the value of the Single Life Annuity form of the retirement income of the Participant, determined on the basis of the assumed mortality rates provided by the UP 1984
Mortality Table using a one-year age setback for the Participant and a five-year age setback for the Beneficiary or Spouse, and an assumed annual rate of investment return of seven percent (7%). 

Effective on and after January 1, 1996, the present value of a lump-sum distribution shall be the actuarial equivalent of the
benefit payable to the Participant commencing at his Normal Retirement Date, determined on the basis of the “Applicable Interest Rate” and the “Applicable Mortality Table” as defined in Section 417(e)(3) of the Code. For
purposes of this paragraph, the Applicable Interest Rate for a lump-sum distribution made in a Plan Year shall be the rate specified by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for the second month preceding the first day of the Plan Year that contains
the Annuity Starting Date for such distribution. 
 9.9 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. In the event the
former spouse of a Participant is entitled to a benefit under this Plan pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, as described in Section 414(p) of the Code, such former spouse may receive such benefit in the form of a Single Life
Annuity for the lifetime of such spouse commencing on or after such Participant attains his Early Retirement Date. The monthly amount of such a Single Life Annuity shall be determined so that such benefit is the Actuarial Equivalent, determined as
of the benefit commencement date in accordance with Section 9.8, of the portion of the Accrued Benefit of the Participant payable to the former spouse pursuant to the Qualified Domestic Relations Order. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Plan, the Accrued Benefit of a Participant shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Actuarial Equivalent of any benefit paid to his former spouse pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. 

To the extent a former spouse is treated as the Spouse of the Participant by reason of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, any current
spouse of the Participant shall not be treated as the Spouse. Where, because of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, more than one individual is to be treated as the Spouse of a Participant, the total amount paid in the form of a Qualified
Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity or the survivor portion of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity shall not exceed the amount that would be paid if there were only one Surviving Spouse. 

In the event the former spouse of a Participant becomes entitled to a benefit under this Plan pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations
Order the present value of which does not exceed $5,000, the present value of such benefit shall be distributed to the former spouse in one lump-sum payment. 

  
 - 30 -

 The present lump-sum value of such a QDRO benefit of a former spouse shall be the actuarial
equivalent of the benefit payable to the former spouse, determined in accordance with Section 9.8. 
 No benefit shall be
payable to a former spouse pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, as described in Section 414(p) of the Code, until the former spouse shall have filed a claim for benefits with the Plan Administrator or its designated representative.
Such a claim must be submitted in writing on a form provided by or suitable to the Plan Administrator at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which payments begin. Payments to a former spouse in the form prescribed above may be made
prior to the time payments are made to the Participant. 
 9.10 Terminated Vested Options. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Article, a pension benefit payable to a Vested Terminated Participant pursuant to Section 6.1 shall be payable only in the form of a Single Life Annuity or a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. The other
optional forms of payment are not available to pensions paid pursuant to Section 6.1. 
 9.11 Protected
Options. In lieu of any form of benefit specified in this Article, a Participant whose pension has not yet commenced as of an Amendment Date, shall be entitled to (a) the Pre-Amendment Accrued Benefit payable in any optional form of
payment available to such Participant under the Plan as in effect immediately before such Amendment Date, computed using the actuarial factors in effect under the Plan immediately before such Amendment Date, and (b) the balance of his Accrued
Benefit paid in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity reduced to the Actuarial Equivalent of a single life annuity commencing at his Normal Retirement Date. (The post-amendment Accrued Benefit is actuarially reduced, instead of reduced
at the rate of three percent (3%) per year, or other applicable factor.) 
 “Amendment Date” means the date on
which an amendment to this Plan is adopted or becomes effective, whichever is later. 
 “Pre-Amendment Accrued
Benefit” means the monthly benefit in the form of a Single Life Annuity beginning at the Normal Retirement Date of the Participant to which the Participant would have been entitled if the Participant had incurred a Termination of Employment
immediately preceding the Amendment Date. 
 9.12 Direct Rollover of Eligible Rollover Distributions.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a distributee’s election under this section, a distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any portion
of an eligible rollover distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee in a direct rollover. 

Definitions. 

  
 - 31 -

	(a)	Eligible rollover distribution: Effective January 1, 1999, an eligible rollover distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the
credit of the distributee, except that an eligible rollover distribution does not include: any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy)
of the distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the distributee and the distributee’s designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; any distribution to the extent such distribution is required
under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; any hardship distribution described in Section 401(k)(2)(B)(I)(IV) of the Code; and the portion of any distribution that is not includable in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for
net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities). 

  

	(b)	Eligible retirement plan: An eligible retirement plan is an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement
annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, that accepts the distributee’s eligible rollover
distribution. However, in the case of an eligible rollover distribution to the Surviving Spouse, an eligible retirement plan is an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity. 

 

	(c)	Distributee: A distributee includes an Employee or former Employee. In addition, the Employee’s or former Employee’s Surviving Spouse and the
Employee’s or former Employee’s Spouse or former Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code, are distributees with regard to the interest of the Spouse or
former Spouse. 

  

	(d)	Direct rollover: A direct rollover is a payment by the Plan to the eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee. 

For purposes of the direct rollover provisions in this Section 9.12, an eligible retirement plan shall also mean an annuity contract described in
Section 403(b) of the Code and an eligible plan under Section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state and which
agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan. The definition of eligible retirement plan shall also apply in the case of a distribution to a surviving spouse, or to a spouse or former spouse who is the alternate
payee under a qualified domestic relation order, as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code. 
 ARTICLE X – PAYMENT OF
BENEFITS 
 10.1 Claim for Benefits. No pension or other benefit shall be payable under this Plan to any
Participant or Beneficiary except as expressly provided for in this Article. The Plan Administrator shall authorize payments under this Plan. 

  
 - 32 -

 No pension or other benefit shall be payable until the Participant, Surviving Spouse or
Beneficiary shall have filed a claim for benefits with the Plan Administrator or its designated representative. Such claim must be submitted in writing on a form provided by or suitable to the Plan Administrator at least fifteen (15) days prior
to the date on which payments begin. The Plan Administrator may require any applicant to furnish it with such information as may be reasonably necessary, including a copy of the Participant’s death certificate, if applicable. 

10.2 Date and Duration of Retirement Income. Except as provided in Section 9.6 with respect to certain lump-sum
distributions and subject to Section 10.1, the retirement income payable under this Plan to a Participant shall commence, if he shall then be living, as of the Participant’s Normal (or Late) Retirement Date, unless the Participant incurred
a Termination of Employment before attaining his Normal Retirement Date and elects an earlier commencement of benefits in accordance with Article V or Article VI, in which case the retirement income payable under this Plan to such a Participant
shall commence, if he shall then be living, on the first day of the month so elected. 
 Such retirement income shall be payable
to the retired Participant as of the first day of each month thereafter during his lifetime; provided that the income of a retired Participant who shall receive his retirement income in the form of a joint annuity shall be payable as of the first
day of each month during the lifetime of the retired Participant or his contingent annuitant, whichever ends later; provided further that if a Participant elects an optional form of payment providing for a term certain, payments shall be made
accordingly. 
 10.3 Date and Duration of a Pre-Retirement Surviving Spouse’s Annuity. The annuity payable to
the Surviving Spouse of a Participant pursuant to subsection 7.1(a) or Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 shall commence as of the first day of the month next following the death of the Participant and shall cease with the payment due on the first
day of the month in which the death of the Surviving Spouse occurs. The annuity payable to the Surviving Spouse of a Participant pursuant to subsection 7.1(b) shall commence, if such Spouse shall then be living, as of the first day of the first
month after which the Participant would have attained fifty-five (55) years of age and shall cease with the payment due on the first day of the month in which the death of the Surviving Spouse occurs. 

If the present value of such an annuity, as determined in accordance with Section 9.6, is $5,000 or less, such amount shall be paid
to the Surviving Spouse in cash in lieu of the annuity as soon as administratively feasible after the death of the Participant. 

10.4 Latest Time of Payment. This section does not contain the general rules of the Plan governing the
time and form of distribution. In particular, this section in and of itself does not give any right to a Participant or Beneficiary to defer distributions beyond the time of distribution provided in the preceding articles. The provisions of
this section shall apply only to the extent they specifically override the other provisions of this Plan governing the payment of pensions. 

  
 - 33 -

	(a)	Unless the Participant elects otherwise in writing, the latest date on which payment of benefits must commence shall be the sixtieth (60th) day after the close of
the Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occurs: 

  

	 	(i)	The Participant attains his Normal Retirement Date; 

  

	 	(ii)	The participant incurs a Termination of Employment; and 

  

	 	(iii)	Ten (10) years have elapsed from the time the Participant commenced participation in the Plan. 

If payment in full is not feasible within the time limits prescribed by this paragraph, the Administrator may direct interim payments.
Payments shall not be required to commence under this subsection until after the Participant files a written claim for benefits with the Plan Administrator. 
  

	(b)	The provisions of this section will apply for purposes of determining required minimum distributions for calendar years beginning with the 2003 calendar year. The
requirements of this section will take precedence over any inconsistent provisions of the Plan. 

 All
distributions required under this section will be determined and made in accordance with the Treasury regulations under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code. 
  

	 	(i)	Required Beginning Date. The Participant’s entire interest will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, to the Participant no later than the
Participant’s required beginning date. 

 Death of Participant Before Distributions Begin. If the
Participant dies before distributions begin, the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than as follows: 
  

	 	(1)	 If the Participant’s surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary, then distributions to the surviving spouse will begin
by December 31st of the calendar year immediately
following the calendar year in which the Participant died, or by December 31st of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age seventy and a half (70 1/2), if later. 

  

	 	(2)	 If the Participant’s surviving spouse is not the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary, then distributions to the designated beneficiary
will begin by December 31st of the calendar year
immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant died. 

  

	 	(3)	 If there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30th of the year following the year of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s entire

  
 - 34 -

	 	 
interest will be distributed by December 31st of the calendar year containing the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Participant’s death. 

  

	 	(4)	If the Participant’s surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary and the surviving spouse dies after the Participant but before
distributions to the surviving spouse begin, this Section 10.4(b)(i), other than Section 10.4(b)(i)(1), will apply as if the surviving spouse were the Participant. 

For purposes of Section 10.4(b)(i)(1) and Section 10.4(b)(iv), distributions are considered to begin on the Participant’s
required beginning date (or, if Section 10.4(b)(i)(4) applies, the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse under Section 10.4(b)(i)(1)). If annuity payments irrevocably commence to the Participant before the
Participant’s required beginning date (or to the Participant’s surviving spouse before the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse under Section 10.4(b)(i)(1)), the date distributions are considered to begin
is the date distributions actually commence. 
 Unless the Participant’s interest is distributed in the form of an annuity
purchased from an insurance company or in a single sum on or before the required beginning date, as of the first distribution calendar year distributions will be made in accordance with Sections 10.4(b)(ii), (iii) and (iv). If the
Participant’s interest is distributed in the form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company, distributions thereunder will be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the Treasury regulations.

  

	 	(ii)	Determination of Amount to be Distributed Each Year.  

 General Annuity Requirements. If the Participant’s interest is paid in the form of annuity distributions under the Plan, payments under the annuity will satisfy the following requirements:

  

	 	(1)	The annuity distributions will be paid in periodic payments made at intervals not longer than one year; 

 

	 	(2)	The distribution period will be over a life (or lives) or over a period certain not longer than the period described in Section 10.4(b)(iii) or 10.4(b)(iv);

  

	 	(3)	Once payments have begun over a period certain, the period certain will not be changed even if the period certain is shorter than the maximum permitted;

  

	 	(4)	Payments will either be non-increasing or increase only as follows: 

  
 - 35 -

	 	(A)	By an annual percentage increase that does not exceed the annual percentage increase in a cost-of-living index that is based on prices of all items and issued by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics; 

  

	 	(B)	To the extent of the reduction in the amount of the Participant’s payments to provide for a survivor benefit upon death, but only if the beneficiary whose life was
being used to determine the distribution period described in Section 10.4(b)(iii) dies or is no longer the Participant’s beneficiary pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order within the meaning of Section 414(p) of the Code;

  

	 	(C)	To provide cash refunds of employee contributions upon the Participant’s death; or 

 

	 	(D)	To pay increased benefits that result from a Plan amendment. 

 Amount Required to be Distributed by Required Beginning Date. The amount that must be distributed on or before the Participant’s required beginning date (or, if the Participant dies before
distributions begin, the date distributions are required to begin under Section 10.4(b)(i)(1) or (2)) is the payment that is required for one payment interval. The second payment need not be made until the end of the next payment interval
even if that payment interval ends in the next calendar year. Payment intervals are the periods for which payments are received, e.g., bi-monthly, monthly, semi-annually, or annually. All of the Participant’s benefit accruals as of the last day
of the first distribution calendar year will be included in the calculation of the amount of the annuity payments for payment intervals ending on or after the Participant’s required beginning date. 

Additional Accruals After First Distribution Calendar Year. Any additional benefits accruing to the Participant in a calendar year
after the first distribution calendar year will be distributed beginning with the first payment interval ending in the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which such amount accrues. 

 

	 	(iii)	Requirements For Annuity Distributions That Commence During Participant’s Lifetime. 

Joint Life Annuities Where the Beneficiary Is Not the Participant’s Spouse. If the Participant’s interest is being
distributed in the form of a joint and survivor annuity for the joint lives of the Participant and a nonspouse beneficiary, annuity payments to be made on or after the Participant’s required beginning date to the designated beneficiary after
the Participant’s death must not at any time exceed the applicable percentage of the annuity payment for such period that would have been payable to the Participant using the table set forth in Q&A-2 of Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-6T. If
the form of distribution combines a joint and survivor annuity 

  
 - 36 -

 
for the joint lives of the Participant and a nonspouse beneficiary and a period certain annuity, the requirement in the preceding sentence will apply to annuity payments to be made to the
designated beneficiary after the expiration of the period certain. 
 Period Certain Annuities. Unless the
Participant’s spouse is the sole designated beneficiary and the form of distribution is a period certain and no life annuity, the period certain for an annuity distribution commencing during the Participant’s lifetime may not exceed the
applicable distribution period for the Participant under the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-9 for the calendar year that contains the annuity starting date. If the annuity starting date precedes the year in which
the Participant reaches age seventy (70), the applicable distribution period for the Participant is the distribution period for age seventy (70) under the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-9 plus the excess of
seventy (70) over the age of the Participant as of the Participant’s birthday in the year that contains the annuity starting date. If the Participant’s spouse is the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary and the form of
distribution is a period certain and no life annuity, the period certain may not exceed the longer of the Participant’s applicable distribution period, as determined under this Section 10.4(b)(iii), or the joint life and last survivor
expectancy of the Participant and the Participant’s spouse as determined under the Joint and Last Survivor Table set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-9, using the Participant’s and spouse’s attained ages as of the
Participant’s and spouse’s birthdays in the calendar year that contains the annuity starting date. 
  

	 	(iv)	Requirements For Minimum Distributions Where Participant Dies Before Date Distributions Begin.  

Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies before the date distribution of his or her interest begins
and there is a designated beneficiary, the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed, beginning no later than the time described in Section 10.4(b)(i)(1) or (2), over the life of the designated beneficiary or over a period certain
not exceeding: 
  

	 	(1)	Unless the annuity starting date is before the first distribution calendar year, the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary determined using the
beneficiary’s age as of the beneficiary’s birthday in the calendar year immediately following the calendar year of the Participant’s death; or 

 

	 	(2)	If the annuity starting date is before the first distribution calendar year, the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary determined using the beneficiary’s
age as of the beneficiary’s birthday in the calendar year that contains the annuity starting date. 

 No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30th of the year

  
 - 37 -

 
following the year of the Participant’s death, distribution of the Participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31st of the calendar year containing the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Participant’s death. 

Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distributions to Surviving Spouse Begin. If the Participant dies before the date distribution of
his or her interest begins, the Participant’s surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary, and the surviving spouse dies before distributions to the surviving spouse begin, this Section 10.4(b)(iv) will apply as
if the surviving spouse were the Participant, except that the time by which distributions must begin will be determined without regard to Section 10.4(b)(i)(1). 
  

	 	(v)	Definitions. 

Designated beneficiary. The individual who is designated as the beneficiary under the Plan and is the designated beneficiary under
Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-1, Q&A-4. 
 Distribution calendar year. A
calendar year for which a minimum distribution is required. For distributions beginning before the Participant’s death, the first distribution calendar year is the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year which contains the
Participant’s required beginning date. For distributions beginning after the Participant’s death, the first distribution calendar year is the calendar year in which distributions are required to begin pursuant to Section 10.4(b)(i).

 Life expectancy. Life expectancy as computed by use of the Single Life Table in Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-9.

 Required beginning date. The required beginning date of a Participant is the April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the
Participant attains seventy and a half
(70 1/2) years of age. 

With respect to distributions under the Plan made for calendar years beginning on or after January 1, 2001, the Plan will apply the
minimum distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code in accordance with the regulations under Section 401(a)(9) that were proposed on January 17, 2001, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the
contrary. This amendment shall continue in effect until the end of the last calendar year beginning before the effective date of final regulations under Section 401(a)(9) or such other date as may be specified in guidance published by the
Internal Revenue Service. 
 Section 401(a)(9) of the Code is hereby incorporated by reference, and distributions under
this Plan shall be made no later than the times and no less than in the amounts determined in accordance with such section and the regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury interpreting such section. Provisions reflecting
Section 401(a)(9) of the Code shall override any other distribution options that may be inconsistent with such section and this subsection. Any 

  
 - 38 -

 
distributions required under the incidental death benefit requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code shall be treated as distributions required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and
this subsection. 
 10.5 Payments to Legal Incompetents. If the Plan Administrator shall receive satisfactory
evidence that a Participant or Beneficiary entitled to receive any benefit under this Plan is, at the time when such benefit becomes payable, physically unable or mentally incompetent to receive such benefit and to give a valid release therefor and
that another person or an institution is then maintaining or has custody of such Participant or Beneficiary, and that no guardian or other representative of the estate of such Participant or Beneficiary shall have been duly appointed, then the Plan
Administrator may authorize payment of such benefit otherwise payable to such Participant or Beneficiary to such other person or institution, and the release of such other person or institution shall be valid and complete discharge for the payment
of such benefit. 
 10.6 Misstatement in Application for Annuity. If any Participant or any Beneficiary in his
application for an annuity or in response to a request of an Employer or of the Plan Administrator for information gives any material fact which is erroneous or omits any material fact or fails before receiving his first payment to correct any
material fact that he previously incorrectly furnished to such Employer for its records, the amount of his annuity shall be adjusted on the basis of the correct information and the amount of any overpayment or underpayment theretofore made to such
Participant shall be deducted from or added to his next succeeding payments as the Plan Administrator shall direct. 
 10.7 Suspension of Benefits for Continued Employment after Retirement Age. If a Participant continues employment after attaining Normal Retirement Age, subject to the minimum distribution
rules (age 70 1/2 rule) of Section 10.4,
payment of benefits to such Participant shall not commence until the Late Retirement Date of the Participant. Such a Participant shall continue to accrue benefits based on Years of Benefit Service, if any, credited during such period of employment;
provided that such additional accruals shall be offset by the actuarial equivalent, as determined in accordance with Section 9.8, of payments, if any, made before the Late Retirement Date of the Participant on account of the minimum
distribution rules (age 70 1/2 rule) of
Section 10.4 to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount that would have been payable to the Participant by such time if the Participant had elected to receive his or her benefit in the form of a Single Life Annuity beginning on
his or her Normal Retirement Date. 
 The Participant shall be notified within thirty (30) days following
attainment of Normal Retirement Age of such suspension of benefits. 
 The monthly amount of the retirement income payable upon
the Late Retirement Date of such a Participant shall not be increased actuarially to reflect the amounts that would have been payable after the Normal Retirement Date of the Participant with respect to a period of time with respect to which the
Participant completes at least forty (40) Actual Hours of Work per month. 

  
 - 39 -

 
However, the monthly amount of the retirement income payable upon the Late Retirement Date of such a Participant shall be increased actuarially to reflect the amounts that would have been payable
after the Normal Retirement Date of the Participant with respect to a period of time with respect to which the Participant does not complete at least forty (40) Actual Hours of Work per month. 

For purposes of this section and Section 10.8, “Actual Hour of Work” means each hour for which an Employee is paid, or
entitled to payment, for the performance of duties for a member of the Controlled Group, which shall be credited to the computation period in which the duties are performed; and each hour for which an Employee is paid, or entitled to payment, of
compensation by a member of the Controlled Group, directly or indirectly, on account of a period of time in which no duties are performed, which shall be credited to the computation period that includes the time increment with respect to which such
payment is made. 
 10.8 Benefits for Re-Hired Retirees. If a Participant is re-employed after his or her
Annuity Starting Date, pension payments shall continue to be made in the amount and in the form determined as of such Annuity Starting Date. Such a Participant shall continue to accrue benefits based on Years of Benefit Service, if any, credited
after such re-employment as of the close of each Plan Year, provided that any such additional benefit accrual through the close of a Plan Year shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the actuarial equivalent, as determined in accordance with
Section 9.8, of the total benefit distributions made to the Participant by the close of such Plan Year to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount that would have been payable to the Participant by such time if the Participant had
elected to receive his or her benefit in the form of a Single Life Annuity beginning on such prior Annuity Starting Date. 

Notwithstanding the above, such offset of continued accruals shall apply to a Participant who is reemployed, after attaining Normal
Retirement Age only with respect to a period of time with respect to which the Participant completes at least forty (40) Actual Hours of Work per month. The Participant shall be notified within thirty (30) days following such re-employment
of the offset of such accruals. 
 10.9 Date of QDRO Payments. No benefit shall be payable to a former spouse
pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, as described in Section 414(p) of the Code, until the former spouse shall have filed a claim for benefits with the Plan Administrator or its designated representative. Such a claim must be
submitted in writing on a form provided by or suitable to the Plan Administrator at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which payments begin. Payments to a former spouse in the form prescribed in Section 9.8 may be made prior to
the time payments are made to the Participant. 
 ARTICLE XI – FUNDING 

11.1 Pension Fund. The Sponsor shall establish a Trust Fund into which the Employers shall make contributions at such times
and in such amounts as the Sponsor (or such person or persons as the Sponsor from time to time shall 

  
 - 40 -

 
designate) shall determine and as may be necessary to keep the pension fund actuarially sound with respect to the obligation to pay the benefits under the Plan. The assets in the Trust Fund shall
be held by the Trustee for the exclusive benefit of the Participants and Beneficiaries and at no time prior to the satisfaction of all of the liabilities under the Plan to pay benefits to Participants and Beneficiaries shall any part of the Trust
Fund be used for or diverted to any purpose other than for their exclusive benefit or to pay administrative expenses of the Plan, except as specifically provided in this Article. 

11.2 Annual Actuarial Examination. At least once each year, the Sponsor shall cause the liabilities of the Plan with
respect to retirement benefits to be evaluated by an Actuary who shall report to the Sponsor on the soundness and solvency of the Trust Fund in relation to such liabilities and on the amount of the contribution for the year which is necessary to
meet the minimum funding standards of ERISA. 
 11.3 Allocation of Contributions Among Employers. Each Employer
shall pay that portion of the annual contribution for each Plan Year that is attributable to its Employees, as determined by the Sponsor. 
 11.4 Rights of Participants. No person shall have any financial interest in or right to any assets in the Trust Fund, except as expressly provided for in this Plan. Each Participant shall be
entitled to look only to assets in the Trust Fund for satisfaction of any benefit payable to such person under this Plan. No liability for payment of benefits under this Plan shall be imposed upon an Employer, the Board of Directors of an Employer,
or the officers or stockholders of an Employer. 
 11.5 Return of Employer Contributions. In the event an Employer
contribution is made by reason of a mistake of fact, the excess of the amount contributed over the amount that would have been contributed had there not occurred a mistake of fact (without earnings attributable to such excess, but after reduction of
losses attributable thereto) may be returned to the Employer within one year of such a mistaken payment. Also, the excess of an amount contributed for a Plan Year over the amount that would have been contributed for such year had there not occurred
a mistake in determining the amount deductible for such year under Section 404 of the Code (without earnings attributable to such excess, but after reduction of losses attributable thereto) may be returned to the Employer within one year after
disallowance of the deduction. 
 11.6 Employee Contributions. No Employee contributions are required or permitted
under this Plan. 
 ARTICLE XII – TRUST FUND INVESTMENTS 

12.1 Trust Agreement. The funds accumulated under the Plan shall be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the
Participants of 

  
 - 41 -

 
the Plan and their Beneficiaries under a Trust Agreement between the Sponsor and the Trustee or Trustees appointed by the Sponsor, which Trust Agreement forms a part of the Plan. 

12.2 Investment of Trust Assets. The Trustee shall have the exclusive authority and discretion to manage and control the
assets of the Plan in accordance with the Trust Agreement, except to the extent that the authority to manage, acquire or dispose of assets of the Plan is delegated to one or more investment managers. The Plan Administrator may, but shall not be
required to, appoint an investment manager or managers in accordance with the Trust Agreement to manage all or any portion of the assets of the Plan. An investment manager shall have the exclusive authority and discretion to manage and control in
accordance with the Trust Agreement the assets of the Plan assigned to it by the Plan Administrator. The Trustee shall not be obligated to invest or otherwise manage any assets of the Plan so assigned to an investment manager, nor shall the trustees
be liable for the acts or omissions of such an investment manager. 
 12.3 Funding Policy. The Plan Administrator
may establish a funding policy for each of the respective investment Funds. The Plan Administrator shall provide the Trustee and each investment manager, if any, with a written copy of any such policy. The Trustee and investment manager shall
exercise their authority and discretion to manage assets of the Plan in accordance with such a policy, as provided in the Trust Agreement. 
 ARTICLE XIII – ADMINISTRATION 
 13.1 Appointment of Plan
Administrator. The Sponsor shall appoint a Plan Administrator to serve at its pleasure. The Plan Administrator may be a corporation (including the Sponsor) or corporations, an individual, or a committee of individuals, or any combination of
the above. The Sponsor may change such appointments from time to time and shall publish such changes in a manner designed to enable interested parties to ascertain the person or persons responsible for operating the Plan. In absence of such an
appointment, the Sponsor shall serve as Plan Administrator provided that, if the Sponsor serves as Plan Administrator, it shall designate specified individuals or other persons to carry out specified fiduciary responsibilities under the Plan in such
a manner and to such an extent that Employees and other interested parties are able to ascertain the person or persons responsible for operating the Plan, and in the absence of any such designation, the person responsible for operating the Plan on
behalf of the Sponsor shall be the Vice President-Human Resources and Administration. 
 13.2 Allocation of
Duties. The Plan Administrator shall have the duty and power to administer this Plan in all its details except the duty and power to invest and reinvest Trust assets which is assigned to the Trustee; provided that, the Plan Administrator in
its discretion may appoint an investment manager and may establish a funding policy. The duties and powers of the Plan Administrator shall include, but not be limited to, the following: 

  
 - 42 -

	(a)	To keep accurate and detailed records of the administration of the Plan, which records shall be open to inspection by the Sponsor at all reasonable times;

Information. All claims, elections, instructions and requests by a Participant must be made in writing to the Plan Administrator. Each Participant shall furnish the Plan Administrator any requested information as needed to administer the
Plan. Each Employer and the Trustee shall furnish the Plan Administrator with the information needed to administer the Plan. 

13.4 Compensation of Fiduciaries. Any Trustee or Plan Administrator may receive reasonable compensation for services
rendered on behalf of the Plan or Trust, provided that no person who renders services to the Plan who already receives full-time pay from an Employer shall receive compensation from the Trust Fund except for reimbursement of expenses properly and
actually incurred. 
 13.5 Expenses of Administration. An Employer at its sole discretion may assume and pay, in
addition to its contributions under this Plan, such compensation to the Trustee as may be determined, from time to time, by agreement between the Sponsor and Trustee and all other expenses of administration and taxes of this Plan, including the

determines in its discretion that any such taxes, compensation or other expenses paid out of the Trust Fund are properly allocable to the account or interest of a particular Participant, the Plan Administrator shall charge the same against such
Participant’s account or interest, and in all other cases such taxes, compensation or other expenses shall be charged against the Trust Fund as a whole.

to whom each such duty or power is so allocated. The committee may delegate to any agents (including the Trustee) such duties and powers, both ministerial and discretionary, as it deems appropriate, by an instrument in writing which specifies which
such duties are so delegated and to whom each such duty is so delegated. 
 13.7 Agent for Service of Legal
Process. The Plan Administrator shall appoint a person to serve as agent for service of legal process. In absence of such appointment the Sponsor shall serve as agent for legal process. 

13.8 Standard of Review. The Plan Administrator shall perform its duties as the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion
shall determine is appropriate in light of the reason and purpose for which the Plan is established and maintained. In particular, the interpretation of all plan provisions, and the determination of whether a Participant or Beneficiary is entitled
to any benefit pursuant to the terms of the Plan, shall be exercised by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. Any construction of the terms of the Plan for which there is a rational basis that is adopted by the Plan Administrator shall be
final and legally binding on all parties. 
 Any interpretation of the Plan or other action of the Plan Administrator made in
good faith in its sole discretion shall be subject to review only if such an interpretation or other action is without a rational basis. Any review of a final decision or action of the Plan Administrator shall be based only on such evidence

compensated for in part by benefits payable pursuant to this Plan, hereby consents to actions or the Plan Administrator made in its sole discretion and agrees to the narrow standard of review prescribed in this section. 

13.9 Indemnification of Plan Administrator. The Sponsor shall indemnify any Employee serving as Plan

 ARTICLE XIV – CLAIMS AND REVIEW PROCEDURE 

  
 - 44 -

 14.1 Claims for Benefits. A Participant or Beneficiary who believes that he is
being denied or will be denied benefits to which he is entitled under the Plan may file a written request for such benefits with the Plan Administrator setting forth his claim. 

14.2 Written Denials of Claims. Within ninety (90) days after receipt of the request, the Plan Administrator shall
provide to every claimant who is denied a claim for benefits, written notice setting forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant: 
  

	(a)	The specific reason or reasons for the denial; 

  

	(b)	Specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; 

 

	(c)	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 

  

	(d)	An explanation of the claim review procedure and the time limits applicable to such 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. 

 If special
circumstances require an extension of time beyond the initial ninety (90) day period, prior to the end of such initial ninety (90) day period the Plan Administrator shall provide to the claimant written notice of the extension, the special
circumstances requiring the extension, and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render the final decision. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of ninety (90) days from the end of the initial ninety (90) day
period. If the Plan Administrator does not furnish a response within the initial ninety (90) day period or extended period, the claimant shall be deemed to have exhausted the claims and review procedures set forth in this Article XIV and shall
be entitled to file suit in state or federal court. 
 14.3 Appeal of Denial. Within sixty (60) days after a
claim is denied, the claimant or his duly authorized representative may appeal such denial to the Plan Administrator by filing a written notice of appeal of the claim denial with the Plan Administrator, provided that if the claimant or his duly
authorized representative fails to file such appeal within sixty (60) days after the claim is denied, the claimant shall be deemed to have waived any right to appeal the denial of the claim. The notice of appeal shall reasonably apprise the
Plan Administrator of the reasons and grounds for such appeal and shall specify the scope of review desired by requesting any or all of the procedures as follows: 
  

	(a)	Review, upon request and free of charge, all documents, records and other information in the possession of the Plan Administrator that are relevant to the claim; and

  

	(b)	Submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim. 

  
 - 45 -

 If review of a decision is requested, such review shall include a review of 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 determination. The Plan Administrator shall furnish a written decision on
review not later than sixty (60) days after the notice of appeal is filed. If the decision on review is not furnished within such time, the appeal shall be deemed denied on review. However, if special circumstances require an extension of time
beyond the initial sixty (60) day period, prior to the end of such initial sixty (60) day period the Plan Administrator shall provide to the claimant, written notice of the extension, the special circumstances requiring the extension, and
the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render the final decision. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of sixty (60) days from the end of the initial sixty (60) day period. Any denial shall inform the claimant of
the specific reason or reasons for the denial, refer to the specific Plan provisions on which the denial is based, state that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of all documents,
records and other information relevant to the claim, and state that the claimant has a right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA. 
 ARTICLE XV – AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 
 15.1 Amendment.
The Sponsor reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or amend the Plan in whole or in part by duly adopting an instrument in writing setting forth such amendments; provided that no such modification or amendment shall decrease
the Accrued Benefit of any Participants accrued to the date of such an amendment, reduce an early retirement benefit or subsidy accrued to the date of such an amendment or eliminate an optional form of benefit to the extent the benefit is accrued to
the date of such an amendment, except to the extent necessary to maintain the qualified status of the Plan; and provided further that the duties or liabilities of a Trustee shall not be increased without its written consent. 

15.2 Termination. The Sponsor reserves the right at any time to terminate the Plan in its entirety or only with respect to
a portion of the Trust Fund by duly adopting an instrument in writing. 
 All Accrued Benefits to the extent then funded shall
vest as of the effective date of the termination of the Plan, and there shall be no forfeitures thereafter. In the event of a partial termination, all rights to benefits with respect to which the Plan terminated to the extent then funded shall be
fully vested and nonforfeitable as of the date of such partial termination. 
 In the event of complete termination of this
Plan, the Plan Administrator shall cause an actuarial valuation to be made. The funds in the Trust Fund shall be allocated on an actuarial basis to pay the benefits in the order and in the manner provided by Section 4044 of ERISA with no
subclasses and categories within the classes described therein. All assets in the Trust Fund 

  
 - 46 -

 
that are not needed to satisfy in full the accrued retirement benefit of each Participant at the time of such a termination shall revert to the Employer. 

15.3 Limitations on Benefits upon Termination. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Plan to the contrary, the
payment of benefits to or on behalf of a “Restricted Employee” in any year shall not exceed an amount equal to the payments that would be made to or on behalf of the Restricted Employee in that year under a Single Life Annuity that is the
Actuarial Equivalent of the accrued benefit, as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(4)-5(b), and other benefits to which the Restricted Employee is entitled under the Plan (other than a Social Security Supplement), and a Social Security
Supplement, if any, that the Restricted Employee is entitled to receive. 
 Non-applicability in certain cases: the
restrictions in the immediately preceding paragraph do not apply if any one of the following requirements is satisfied: 
  

	(a)	After taking into account payment to or on behalf of the Restricted Employee of all benefits payable to or on behalf of that Restricted Employee under the Plan, the
value of Plan assets is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the value of current liabilities, as defined in Section 412(1)(7) of the Code; 

 

	(b)	The value of the benefits payable to or on behalf of the Restricted Employee are less than one percent (1%) of the value of such current liabilities before
distribution; and 

  

	(c)	The value of the benefits payable to or on behalf of the Restricted Employee do not exceed the amount described in Section 411(a)(11)(A) (restrictions on certain
mandatory distributions). 

 Notwithstanding the preceding, a Restricted Employee’s otherwise restricted
benefit may be distributed in full to the affected Employee if, prior to receipt of the restricted amount, the Employee enters into a written agreement with the Plan Administrator to secure repayment to the Plan of the restricted amount. The
restricted amount is the excess of the amounts distributed to the Employee (accumulated with reasonable interest); over the amounts that could have been distributed to the employee under the Single Life Annuity described in Section 9.4 of the
Plan (accumulated with reasonable interest). The employee may secure repayment of the restricted amount upon distribution by: (1) entering into an agreement for promptly depositing in escrow with an acceptable depository property having a fair
market value equal to at least one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the restricted amount, (2) providing a bank letter of credit in an amount equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the restricted amount, or
(3) posting a bond equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the restricted amount. If the Employee elects to post bond, the bond will be furnished by an insurance company, bonding company or other surety for federal bonds.

 The escrow arrangement may provide that an employee may withdraw amounts in excess of one hundred twenty-five percent
(125%) of the restricted amount. If the market value of the property in an escrow account falls below one hundred ten percent (110%) of the remaining restricted amount, the Employee must deposit additional property to bring the value of
the 

  
 - 47 -

 
property held by the depository up to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the restricted amount. The escrow arrangement may provide that Employee may have the right to receive any
income from the property placed in escrow, subject to the Employee’s obligation to deposit additional property, as set forth in the preceding sentence. 
 A surety or bank may release any liability on a bond or letter of credit in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of the restricted amount. 

If the Plan Administrator certifies to the depository, surety or bank that the Employee (or the Employee’s estate) is no longer
obligated to repay any restricted amount, a depository may redeliver to the Employee any property held under an escrow agreement, and a surety or bank may release any liability on an Employee’s bond or letter of credit. 

Restricted Employee, for purposes of this Section, means any HCE who is one of the twenty-five nonexcludable (for purposes of Sections
410(b) and 401(a)(4) of the Code) Employees or former Employees of the Controlled Group with the largest amount of compensation in the current or any prior year. 
 HCE means Highly Compensated active Employees and Highly Compensated former Employees. 
 A Highly Compensated active Employee includes any Employee who performs services for the Controlled Group during the determination year and who, during the look-back year, received compensation from the
Controlled Group in excess of $80,000, as adjusted by the Secretary for increases in the cost of living in accordance with Section 414(q)(1) of the Code, and any Employee who is a five percent (5%) owner (as defined in Section 416(i)
of the Code) at any time during the look-back year or determination year. For this purpose the determination year shall be the Plan Year and the look-back year shall be the immediately preceding year. 

A Highly Compensated former Employee includes any Employee who separated from service (or was deemed to have
separated) prior to the determination year, performs no service for the Controlled Group during the determination year, and was a Highly Compensated active Employee for either the separation year or any determination year ending on or after the
Employee’s fifty-fifth (55th) birthday.

 The determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee will be made in accordance with Section 414(q) of the Code and
the regulations thereunder. 
 ARTICLE XVI – MISCELLANEOUS 

16.1 Anti-Assignation. None of the payments, benefits, rights or interest provided for under this Plan shall be subject to
any claim of any creditor of any Participant in law or in equity and shall not be subject to attachment, garnishment, execution or other legal process by any such creditor; nor shall the Participant have

  
 - 48 -

 
any right to assign, transfer, encumber, anticipate or otherwise dispose of any such payments, benefits, rights or interest or their proceeds or avails. 

Notwithstanding anything in this section to the contrary, the Plan Administrator may: 

 

	(a)	Comply with a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code, to the extent that it does not alter the amount or form of
benefit specified under the Plan, except as required by law; and 

  

	(b)	Surrender to the government of the United States of America any portion of a Participant’s Accrued Benefit which is subject to a federal tax levy made pursuant to
Section 6331 of the Code. 

 If any portion of the Trust Fund which is attributable to benefits, rights or
interests of any Participant is transferred to any other entity pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) to satisfy a debt or other obligation of such Participant, the Participant’s Accrued Benefit shall be reduced by an equivalent amount.

 16.2 Rights of Employee. Neither the action of the Sponsor in establishing this Plan, nor any action taken by
an Employer or the Trustee, nor any provision of the Plan shall be construed as giving to any Employee the right to be retained in the employ of an Employer or the right to any payments other than those expressly in the Plan to be paid from the
Trust Fund. Each Employer expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss any Employee without any liability for any claim against such Employer or against the Trust Fund other than with respect to the benefits provided for by the Plan.

 16.3 Source of Benefits. All benefits to be paid to a Participant or his Beneficiary under this Plan shall be
paid solely out of the Trust Fund, and an Employer assumes no liability or responsibility therefor. 
 16.4 Notice of
Address. Each person entitled to benefits under this Plan must file with the Plan Administrator, in writing, his Social Security number, his post office address and each change of post office address. Any communication, statement, or notice
addressed to such person at his latest post office address as filed with the Plan Administrator will be binding upon such person for all purposes of the Plan, and neither the Trustee nor the Plan Administrator shall be obliged to search for or to
ascertain the whereabouts of any such person. If the Plan Administrator notifies any such person that he is entitled to benefits under the Plan and also notifies him of the provisions of this section, and if such person fails to collect his benefits
or make his whereabouts known to the Plan Administrator within two (2) years after any benefits hereunder shall become payable, the Plan Administrator will notify the Social Security Administration of such circumstances, and the Plan
Administrator shall be justified in postponing any further action in such case pending directions from the Social Security Administration. 
 16.5 Actions by a Corporation. Whenever under the terms of this Plan a corporation is permitted or required to take some action,

  
 - 49 -

 
such action may be taken by the Vice-President of Finance of the Sponsor, or by any other officer of the corporation who has been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of such corporation.

 16.6 Rules of Construction. The terms and provisions of this Plan shall be construed according to the
principles and in the priority as follows: first, in accordance with the meaning under, and which will bring the Plan into conformity with the Code and with ERISA; and, secondly, in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri. The Plan shall
be deemed to contain the provisions necessary to comply with such laws. If any provision of this Plan shall be held illegal or invalid, the remaining provisions of this Plan shall be construed as if such provision had never been included. Wherever
applicable, the masculine pronoun as used herein shall include the feminine, and the singular shall be the plural. 
 16.7
Plan Mergers. In the event of any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets or liabilities to any other plan, each Participant in the Plan shall be entitled to a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer
if the other plan then terminated which is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation or transfer if this Plan had then been terminated. 

16.8 Forfeitures. No forfeitures under the Plan shall be applied to increase the benefits of any person under the Plan
prior to the termination of the Plan or permanent discontinuance of Employer contributions to the Plan, and all forfeitures shall be used to reduce the Employer’s contributions. 

16.9 Acceptance of Transfers from Other Qualified Plans. The Plan Administrator may direct the Trustee to accept a transfer
of assets and liabilities on behalf of a Participant from the trustee of the Silgan Plastics Pension Plan for Hourly-Paid Employees (the “Hourly Plan”) on behalf of a Participant who transferred from employment covered by the Hourly Plan
to Covered Employment under this Plan. Such a transfer shall be considered a plan amendment with the accrued benefit of such Participant under the Hourly Plan, determined at the time of such transfer, protected by Section 5.6; as well as a
merger subject to Section 16.7. The Plan Administrator may establish such procedures as it deems appropriate to determine that the acceptance of such transfer will not adversely affect the qualified status of the Plan. For purposes of this
section a rollover contribution is not considered a transfer. 
 ARTICLE XVII – TOP-HEAVY 

17.1 Top-Heavy Determination. For purposes of this Article, the Plan will be determined to be Top-Heavy for a Plan Year if,
as of the Determination Date for that Plan Year, the present value of the cumulative Accrued Benefits of Key Employees under this Plan exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the present value of 

  
 - 50 -

 
the cumulative Accrued Benefits of all Participants under the Plan, as determined pursuant to Section 416(g) of the Code. 

All Plans qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and adopted by a member of the Controlled Group shall be aggregated and treated
as one plan (the “Plan”) for purposes of this Article; except that any plan not required to be in an aggregation group under Section 416(g)(1)(A)(i) of the Code may be aggregated and treated as part of the Plan only if such
aggregation group would continue to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(4) and Section 410 of the Code with such plan being taken into account. The present value of the cumulative Accrued Benefit of a Participant in a defined
contribution plan shall be the balance credited to the account of the Participant. 
 The Determination Date, with respect to
any Plan Year, shall be the last day of the immediately preceding Plan Year. 
 17.2 Valuation as of Determination
Date. The present value of the Accrued Benefit of the respective Participants as of a Determination Date shall be determined as if the Participant terminated employment on the Valuation Date used for computing plan costs for minimum funding
purposes for the Plan Year ending on such Determination Date, using the actuarial assumptions set forth in Section 9.8. If the Controlled Group maintains more than one defined benefit plan and there is no single accrual rate used by all of such
plans, the present value of the Accrued Benefit of each Participant shall be determined by treating the benefits of the non-Key Employees as accruing no more rapidly than the slowest rate permitted by Section 411(b)-(1)(C) of the Code (the
fractional rule). Distributions made within the Plan Year that include such Determination Date and within the four (4) Plan Years immediately preceding such Plan Year shall be added to the present value of Accrued Benefits. The Accrued Benefit
of a Participant who is not a Key Employee but who was a Key Employee in a prior year shall be disregarded. The Accrued Benefit of a Participant who has not performed services for a member of the Controlled Group during the five (5) Plan Years
immediately preceding such Plan Year shall be disregarded. The Accrued Benefit derived from an unrelated rollover received by the Plan shall also be disregarded. 
 17.3 Key Employee. “Key Employee” means an Employee, former Employee or Employee’s Beneficiary who at any time during the Plan Year or any of the four (4) preceding Plan
Years is: 
  

	(a)	An officer of an Employer having an annual compensation greater than fifty percent (50%) of the amount in effect under Section 415(b)(l)(A) of the Code for
any such Plan Year; 

  

	(b)	One of the ten (10) Employees having annual compensation from an Employer of more than the limitation in effect under Section 415(c)(l)(A) of the Code and
owning (or considered as owning within the meaning of Section 318 of the Code) the largest interests in an Employer; 

  
 - 51 -

	(c)	A five percent (5%) owner of an Employer; or 

  

	(d)	A one percent (l%) owner of an Employer having an annual compensation from the Employer of more than $150,000, 

as defined in accordance with Section 416(i)(l) of the Code. 
 17.4 Vesting Requirements. If the Plan is determined to be Top-Heavy for a Plan Year, the vested percentage of the Accrued Benefit of a Participant as of such Plan Year shall be redetermined
in accordance with the following schedule: 
  

					
	 After Two Years of Service
	  	 	20	% 
	 After Three Years of Service
	  	 	40	% 
	 After Four Years of Service
	  	 	60	% 
	 After Five Years of Service
	  	 	100	% 

 If the Plan is determined
to be Top-Heavy for a Plan Year and subsequently ceases to be Top-Heavy, the vesting provision in Article VI shall be applicable in such subsequent year; provided that any portion of the Accrued Benefit that was nonforfeitable before the Plan ceased
to be Top-Heavy must remain so vested, and that any Participant with three (3) or more Years of Service may elect, with a reasonable time after receipt of notice by the Plan Administrator that the Plan is no longer Top-Heavy, to have his
nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan as though the Plan continued to be Top-Heavy. 
 17.5 Minimum
Benefits. If the Plan is determined to be Top-Heavy for a Plan Year, the Accrued Benefit derived from Employer contributions of each Participant, calculated as of any date from time to time, shall never be less than a monthly retirement
income in the form of a Single Life Annuity, or a benefit in another form as permitted in Article IX that has an Actuarial Equivalent value to a Single Life Annuity, commencing at the Normal Retirement Age of the Participant, the monthly amount of
which is equal to the Five-Year Average Compensation of the Participant multiplied by the lesser of: 
  

	(a)	Twenty percent (20%); and 

  

	(b)	Two percent (2%) for each Includable Year of Participation, where: 

  

	 	(i)	Five-Year Average Compensation means the Participant’s average monthly compensation for the five (5) consecutive Plan Years when the Participant had the
highest aggregate compensation (as defined in Section 8.1) from an Employer; and 

  

	 	(ii)	Includable Year of Participation means each year of Benefit Service, excluding years of Benefit Service completed in a Plan Year beginning before January l, l984, and
excluding Years of Benefit Service completed during a Plan Year when the Plan was not Top-Heavy. 

  
 - 52 -

 17.6 Adjustment to Combination Defined Benefit Plan and Defined Contribution Plan
Limitations. If the Plan is determined to be Top-Heavy for a Plan Year ending on or before January 1, 2000 in accordance with Section 17.1, paragraphs 2(B) and 3(B) of Section 415(e) of the Code shall be applied by
substituting “1.0” for “1.25” unless: 
  

	(a)	Section 17.5 shall be applied by substituting “thirty percent (30%)” for “twenty percent (20%)” and by substituting “three percent
(3%)” for “two percent (2%)”; and 

  

	(b)	The present value of the Accrued Benefits of Key Employees does not exceed ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate present value of the Accrued Benefits of all
Participants under the Plan. 

 17.7 Subsequent Amendment of Provisions. In the event that it should
be determined by statute or ruling by the Internal Revenue Service that the provisions of this Article are no longer necessary to qualify the Plan under the Internal Revenue Code, this Article shall be ineffective without amendment to the Plan.

 17.8 EGTRRA Addendum. 
  

	(a)	Effective date. This section shall apply for purposes of determining whether the Plan is a top-heavy plan under Section 416(g) of the Code for Plan Years
beginning after December 31, 2001, and whether the Plan satisfies the minimum benefits requirements of Section 416(c) of the Code for such years. This section amends Article XVII of the Plan. 

 

	(b)	Determination of top-heavy status. 

  

	 	(i)	Key Employee. Key Employee means any Employee or former Employee (including any deceased Employee) who at any time during the Plan Year that includes the
determination date was an officer of the Employer having annual compensation greater than $130,000 (as adjusted under Section 416(i)(1) of the Code for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2002), a five percent (5%) owner of the
Employer, or a one percent (1%) owner of the Employer having annual compensation of more than $150,000. For this purpose, annual compensation means compensation within the meaning of Section 415(c)(3) of the Code. The determination of who
is a Key Employee will be made in accordance with Section 416(i)(1) of the Code and the applicable regulations and other guidance of general applicability issued thereunder. 

 

	 	(ii)	Determination of present values and amounts. This Section 17.8(b)(ii) shall apply for purposes of determining the present values of accrued benefits and the
amounts of account balances of Employees as of the determination date. 

  
 - 53 -

	 	(1)	Distributions during year ending on the determination date. The present values of accrued benefits and the amounts of account balances of an Employee as of the
determination date shall be increased by the distributions made with respect to the Employee under the Plan and any plan aggregated with the Plan under Section 416(g)(2) of the Code during the 1-year period ending on the determination date. The
preceding sentence shall also apply to distributions under a terminated plan which, had it not been terminated, would have been aggregated with the Plan under Section 416(g)(2)(A)(i) of the Code. In the case of a distribution made for a reason
other than separation from service, death, or disability, this provision shall be applied by substituting “5-year period” for “1-year period.” 

 

	 	(2)	Employees not performing services during year ending on the determination date. The accrued benefits and accounts of any individual who has not performed
services for the Employer during the 1-year period ending on the determination date shall not be taken into account. 

  

	(c)	Minimum benefits. For purposes of satisfying the minimum benefit requirements of Section 416(c)(1) of the Code and the Plan, in determining years of service
with the Employer, any service with the Employer shall be disregarded to the extent that such service occurs during a Plan Year when the Plan benefits (within the meaning of Section 410(b) of the Code) no Key Employees or former Key Employees.
