PREAMBLE

Investors Title Insurance Company the
(“Company”) previously established a non-qualified deferred compensation plan
referred to as the Investors Title Insurance Company Nonqualified Deferred
Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), originally effective June 1, 2004. The Company
is amending and restating the Plan effective January 1, 2009 as set forth herein
to (i) reflect certain design changes to the Plan, (ii) provide for the Plan’s
documentary compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and
(iii) otherwise meet current needs. 

The purpose of this Plan is to permit
selected management employees to set-aside additional retirement benefits on a
pre-tax basis. This Plan shall be unfunded and maintained primarily for the
purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or
highly compensated employees within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3)
and 401(a)(l) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”). The Plan is intended to be effective with respect to Compensation
earned after December 31, 2002. 

Benefits are based upon hypothetical
contributions from a Participant’s Compensation, and from Company Contributions,
in each case which are credited to a Participant’s “Account”. 

It is intended that funds accumulated
under this Plan on a Participant’s behalf will be paid to the Participant at a
specified future date determined under procedures described herein, or upon
disability or Termination of Employment. The Participant may select a lump sum,
or from among other payment options for Plan benefits. Upon the Participant’s
death, the Participant’s remaining Account balance, if any, will be paid to the
Participant’s named Beneficiary. 

Account balances resulting from a
Participant’s deferred compensation may be credited with interest, at a rate
determined by the Company, or with amounts reflecting and corresponding to the
performance (i.e., income, gains, losses, etc.) of a designated security or
index. Further, the Company may choose to set aside assets relating to Plan
obligations in a Rabbi Trust, the corpus of which will be available to the
Company’s creditors in the event of bankruptcy. However, the Company is under no
obligation to invest amounts deemed contributed to the Plan or to set aside
funds in a Rabbi Trust. In all cases, the Company may elect to pay the benefits
promised hereunder from other general assets. Notwithstanding the fact that the
Company may set aside assets in respect of its obligations under the Plan, the
Plan is unfunded and the rights of Participants and Beneficiaries are limited to
those of general, unsecured creditors of the Company.

      Except as provided in (b) and (c)
      below, an individual who is employed by the Company is an Eligible
      Employee with respect to a particular Plan Year only if he is both (i)

      Each Eligible Employee shall

ARTICLE 3
ESTABLISHMENT OF
ACCOUNTS 

	3.1	Accounts. 
	 	
	 	
      The Plan Administrator will
      establish and maintain separate memorandum Accounts for each Participant,
      for bookkeeping purpose only, which will be used to measure the amount of
      the Company’s liability to each Participant and Beneficiary under this
      Plan. 

	 
	3.2	Credits and Debits
      to Accounts. 
	 
	 	
      The Plan Administrator will, as
      often and as soon as may be reasonable and practicable, make such
      adjustments to the Accounts, by credit (addition) or debit (reduction), as
      may be necessary and/or appropriate to reflect: 

	              
    	              
    	
	 	(a)	a Participant’s Elective
      Deferrals,

	 	(c)	
      any accrued interest (if Company
      contributions are deemed to be invested at interest), and

	 
	 	(d)	
      any income and/or expense, and
      any gain or loss (i.e., increase or decrease, whether realized or
      unrealized), associated with any other investment(s) in which the
      contributions are deemed be invested, so that the balance of any portion
      of the Account that is deemed to be invested will be adjusted in the same
      manner and amount that it would have been adjusted had the Account
      investment actually been made (i.e., so as to reflect the net amount
      invested, and any changes in the investment’s market or net asset
      value).

ARTICLE 4
CONTRIBUTIONS AND
BENEFITS 

	4.1	Benefits. 
	 
	 	
      Participants (or their
      Beneficiaries) will be entitled to benefits from this Plan upon the
      Participant’s Termination of Employment. Benefits will be based upon the
      value of a Participant’s Account, which will reflect credits for (i)
      hypothetical “contributions” made by the Company in an amount equal to a
      Participant’s Elective Deferrals, (ii) hypothetical contributions made by
      the Company in amounts as described in Section 4.3, and (iii)
      additional credits (or debits) for the hypothetical investment performance
      of those contributions, as hereinafter described.

      A Participant may file a written
      election with the Company (on a form approved by the Company) to defer
      receipt of any Compensation which the Participant would otherwise be
      entitled to receive from the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein,
      the Participant’s election to defer payment of his Compensation must be
      made at least thirty (30) days before the beginning of the calendar year
      for which the Compensation is payable. If the Participant elects to defer
      any Compensation under this Section 4.2, the election may not be revoked
      during the calendar year in which it was intended to be applicable;
      however, the Participant may revoke and/or re-elect for Compensation that
      may be earned subsequent calendar years. 

	 
	4.3	Company
      Contributions.

      Contribution. On or before December 31,
      2004, the Company credited to the account of each Participant who was

      amount that the Company would have contributed to such Participant’s SEP
      during the period from January 1 to December 31, 2003 if the Company’s
      contributions to the SEP had not been limited by Code Sections 401(a)(17)
      and 415(c) less the amount actually contributed to such Participant’s SEP
      during such calendar year. 

	 
	 	(b)	
      Pre-2008 Annual
      Contributions. On or before December 31
      of each calendar year beginning on or after January 1, 2004 but before
      January 1, 2008, the Company credited to the account of each Participant a
      sum equal to the amount that the Company would have contributed to such
      Participant’s SEP during such calendar year if the Company’s contributions
      to the SEP for such calendar year had not been limited by Code Sections
      401(a)(17)and 415(c) less the amount actually contributed to such
      Participant’s SEP during such calendar year. 

	 
	 	(c)	
      2008 Annual
      Contributions. On or before March 15,
      2009, the Company will credit to the account of each Participant a sum
      equal to the amount that the Company would have contributed to such
      Participant’s account under the Section 401(k) Plan as Non-Elective
      Company Contributions during such calendar year if Non-Elective Company
      Contributions to the Section 401(k) Plan for such calendar year
      2008 had not been limited by Code Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3), 401(m),
      402(g), and 415(c) less the Non-Elective Company Contributions actually
      contributed to such Participant’s account under the Section 401(k) Plan
      during the 2008 calendar year.

			 
		(d)	
      Cessation of Company Contributions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Company
      Contribution shall be made hereunder for calendar years beginning on or
      after January 1, 2009.

	4.4	Crediting Elective
      Contributions to Accounts.

	 
	 	
      Elective Deferrals will be
      credited to a Participant’s Account within fifteen (15) days after the end
      of the month to which the Elective Deferrals relates. No amount shall
      actually be set aside for payment under this Plan, and the existence of
      the Account shall not create and shall not be deemed to create a trust of
      any kind, or fiduciary relationship between the Company and the
      Participant or his Beneficiary. 

	 
	4.5	Taxation. 
	 
	 	
      Amounts credited to a
      Participant’s Account under this Plan are subject to rules of taxation
      (including employment taxes) as may be applicable from time to time. Any
      taxes owing in a year will be deducted from a Participant’s Compensation
      pursuant to rules established by the Committee. 

	 
	4.6	Investment
      Funds. 
	              
    	              
    	
	 	(a)	
      Investment Funds Offered under
      Plan. The Company, in conjunction with
      the advice and recommendations of its investment advisors, shall designate
      one or more investments to be offered under the Plan, and shall provide
      the Participant a list of the mutual funds, stocks, bonds securities or
      other assets into which the Participant’s Account may be deemed
      invested. 

	 
	 	(b)	
      Change in Investment Funds
      Offered under Plan. In its sole
      discretion, the Company may from time to time, upon advice and
      recommendations by its investment advisors, designate other investment
      funds in addition to or in lieu of the investment funds then being offered
      under the Plan. Any such change in the investment funds offered under the
      Plan may be made without amending the Plan. Any addition or deletion of a
      designated investment fund shall be communicated to the Participant.
      

	 	 	
	 	(c)	
      Participant’s Choice of
      Funds. The Participant’s choice of the
      investment funds into which an Account is deemed to be invested shall be
      the sole responsibility of the Participant. At the time an individual
      becomes a Participant (or within a short period of time thereafter), he
      may make an initial election regarding such deemed investment funds by
      submitting a completed investment election form to the Plan Administrator
      (in such documents as the Plan Administrator may designate).

	 	(d)	
      Revised Participant’s
      Elections Regarding Investment Funds.
      The Participant may elect to change the investment funds into which his
      Account is deemed to be invested by completing a new investment election
      form. On such form, the Participant may designate the investment funds
      into which future Elective Deferrals and Company Contributions will be
      deemed to be invested and may change the investment funds into which prior
      Elective Deferrals and Company Contributions are deemed to be invested.
      Such changes shall become effective as soon as administratively feasible
      following the date the investment election form is completed and submitted
      to the Plan Administrator. 

	              
    	              
    	
	 	(e)	
      Default
      Provision. In the event the Participant
      fails to provide instructions on the investment of his Account, the
      Participant’s Account shall be deemed invested in a money market or
      similar type fund until further instructions are received from the
      Participant. 

	 
	 	(f)	
      Investment Performance Not
      Guaranteed. The Participant shall
      assume all risks that the investments attributable to his Account may
      decrease in value when invested in accordance with his investment
      instructions made pursuant to this Section 4.5. Notwithstanding any other
      provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Company shall not be liable to
      the Participant for any decrease in the value of investments attributable
      to the Participant’s Account resulting from his investment selections,
      including, but not be limited to, market value fluctuations,
      administrative fees, sales commissions, and withdrawal or surrender
      penalties/charges. 

	 
	4.7	Company
      Investments. 
	 
	 	
      Any investment the Company may
      actually make in connection with Section 4.5 of the Plan shall at all
      times remain part of the general assets of the Company, within the
      Company’s control and available for any Company purpose, subject to the
      provisions of any Rabbi Trust to which any actual investment is
      transferred; and the rights of Participants and their Beneficiaries will
      remain those of unsecured general creditors of the Company.

      of Employment, the Company will pay benefits to the Participant in the
      amount and manner described in Article 6. 

	 
	5.2	Death
      Benefits. 
	 
	 	(a)	
      Prior to his death, a Participant
      shall have the right to designate one or more Beneficiary for the amount
      payable under this Section 5.2. 

	 
	 	(b)	
      If the Participant’s Termination
      of Employment occurs as a result of such Participant’s death, the
      Participant’s Account will be paid to the Participant’s named
      Beneficiary(ies) in a lump sum as described in Section 6.3. Payment will
      occur as soon as may be practicable under procedures established by the
      Plan Administrator. 

	 
	 	(c)	
      Unless the Participant’s
      Beneficiary designation provides to the contrary, the following will apply
      with respect to payments after the Participant’s death: 

	              
    	              
    	              
    	
	 	 	(i)	
      If the primary Beneficiary
      survives the Participant but dies before distribution of the amount
      credited to such Participant’s Account, such amount will be paid to the
      Beneficiary’s estate. 

	 
	 	 	(ii)	
      If the primary Beneficiary does
      not survive the Participant, payment will be made to a contingent
      Beneficiary or, if none is named or none survives the Participant, to the
      Participant’s estate. 

	 
	5.3	Payor. 
	 
	 	
      The Company may pay directly any
      amounts due under the Plan to a Participant or Beneficiary, or it may
      delegate responsibility for payments to a trustee or other third
      party. 

	 
	5.4	One-Time Benefit
      Event. 
	 
	 	
      Notwithstanding any other
      provision to the contrary, a Participant may elect to receive a

      such election is (i) in writing; and (ii) received by the Plan
      Administrator no later than December 31, 2008. Such distribution will
      occur on or before January 31, 2009.

VALUATION AND
DISTRIBUTION OF ACCOUNTS

	6.1	Valuation of
      Accounts. 
	 
	 	
      A Participant’s Account shall be
      valued as of each Valuation Date under procedures established by the Plan
      Administrator. 

	              
    	
	6.2	Commencement of
      Benefits. 
	 
	 	
      Benefits will be paid after the
      Participant’s Benefit Commencement Date, which shall be determined in
      accordance with the terms of Article 5. Notwithstanding any provision
      herein to the contrary, to the extent applicable, in no event shall any
      payment hereunder be made earlier than six months after the date of the
      Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, except in
      connection with the Participant’s death. 

	 
	6.3	Form and Amount of
      Payment. 
	 	
	 	
      A Participant will receive a full
      lump sum payable on or within thirty days after the Participant’s
      Benefit Commencement Date, equal to the Account balance as of the
      Valuation Date immediately preceding the Benefit Commencement Date

      Benefits.

      opportunity to postpone the commencement of his benefits for his Account,
      as follows: At least twelve (12) months prior to the date on which
      distribution would otherwise commence, the Participant may elect to
      postpone, but not accelerate, his Benefit Commencement Date to a later
      specified date which may not be earlier than five years after the date on
      which distribution would otherwise commence. Any election which is
      determined, considering the date upon which the Participant terminates or
      is deemed to have terminated under Article 5, to have been made too late,
      and not otherwise in accordance with this Section 6.4 or Section 409A of
      the Code, will be void and without effect.

ARTICLE 7
ADMINISTRATION
AND CLAIMS PROCEDURE 

	7.1	Administration. 
	              
    	
	 	
      The Plan shall be administered by
      the Board, which shall have the authority, duty and power to interpret and
      construe the provisions of the Plan as the Board deems appropriate
      including the authority to determine eligibility for benefits under the
      Plan. The Board shall have the duty and responsibility of maintaining
      records, making the requisite calculations and disbursing the payments
      hereunder. The interpretations, determinations, regulations and
      calculations of the Board shall be final and binding on all persons and
      parties concerned. Any benefits payable under this Plan will be paid only
      if the Plan Administrator decides in its discretion that the applicant is
      entitled to them. 

	 
	7.2	Expenses; Reliance on
      Third-Parties. 
	 
	 	
      Expenses of administration shall
      be paid by the Company. The Board shall be entitled to rely on all tables,
      valuations, certificates, opinions, data and reports furnished by any
      actuary, accountant, controller, counsel or other person employed or
      retained by the Company with respect to the Plan. 

	 
	7.3	Annual
      Statements. 
	 
	 	
      The Board shall furnish
      individual annual statements of accrued benefits to each Participant, or
      Beneficiary, in such form as determined by the Board. 

	 
	7.4	Appointment of a
      Conservator. 
	 
	 	
      The Company may from time to time
      establish rules and procedures which it determines to be necessary for the
      proper administration of the Plan and the benefits payable to an
      individual in the event that individual is declared incompetent and a
      conservator or other person legally charged with that individual’s care is
      appointed. Except as otherwise provided herein, when the Company
      determines that such individual is unable to manage his or her financial
      affairs, the Company may pay such individual’s benefits to such
      conservator, person legally charged with such individual’s care, or
      institution then contributing toward or providing for the care and
      maintenance of such individual. Any such payment shall constitute a
      complete discharge of any liability of the Company and the Plan for such
      individual. 

	 
	7.5	Limitation of
      Liability. 
	 
	 	
      Notwithstanding any provision
      herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor any individual acting as
      an employee or agent of the Company shall be liable to any Participant,
      former Participant, designated Beneficiary, or any other person for any
      claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan,
      unless attributable to fraud or willful misconduct on the part of the
      Company or any such employee or agent of the Company.
  

10

	7.6	Claims for
      Benefits. 
	 
		All claims for benefits
      shall be handled through the following procedure: 
	 
	 	(a)	
      Claim. A person who believes that he is being denied a
      benefit to which he is entitled under the Plan (hereinafter referred to as
      a “Claimant”) may file a written request for such benefit with the
      Company, setting forth his claim. The request must be addressed to the
      Plan Administrator at the Company’s then principal place of
      business. 

	 
	 	(b)	
      Claim Decision. Upon receipt of a claim, the Plan Administrator shall
      advise the Claimant that a reply will be forthcoming within ninety (90)
      days and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such period. The Plan
      Administrator may, however, extend the reply period for an additional
      ninety (90) days for reasonable cause. 

	 
		
      If the claim is denied in whole
      or in part, the Plan Administrator shall adopt a written opinion, using
      language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting
      forth: 

	              
    	              
    	              
    	
	 	 	(i)	
      The specific reason or reasons for such denial;

	 
	 	 	(ii)	
      The specific reference to pertinent provisions of this
      Agreement on which such denial is based; 

	 
	 	 	(iii)	
      A description of any additional material or information
      necessary for the Claimant to perfect his claim and an explanation why
      such material or such information is necessary;

	 
	 	 	(iv)	
      Appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if
      the Claimant wishes to submit the claim for review; and

	 
	 	 	(v)	
      The time limits for requesting a review under Section
      7.6(c) and for review under Section 7.6(d).

	 
	 	(c)	
      Request for
      Review. Within sixty (60) days after
      the receipt by the Claimant of the written opinion described above, the
      Claimant may request in writing that the Assistant Secretary of the
      Company review the determination of the Company. Such request must be
      addressed to the Assistant Secretary of the Company, at its then principal
      place of business. The Claimant or his duly authorized representative may,
      but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and
      comments in writing for consideration by the Company. If the Claimant does
      not request a review of the Company’s determination by the Assistant
      Secretary of the Company within such sixty (60) day period, he shall be
      barred and estopped from challenging the Company’s
      determination.

	 	 	 
	 	(d)	
      Review of
      Decision. Within sixty (60) days after
      the Assistant Secretary’s receipt of a request for review, he will review
      the Company’s determination. After considering all materials presented by
      the Claimant, the Assistant Secretary will render a written
      opinion, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant,
      setting forth the specific reasons for the decision and containing
      specific references to the pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which
      the decision is based. If special circumstances require that the sixty
      (60) day time period be extended, the Assistant Secretary will so notify
      the Claimant and will render the decision as soon as possible, but no
      later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request for
      review.

FUNDING 

	8.1	In General.
	              
    	
	 	
      This Plan is unfunded. The rights of a
      Participant or Beneficiary are those of an unsecured general creditor of
      the Company. In general, benefits will be paid by the Company from its
      general assets when due. 

	 
	 	
      The Company, in its sole
      discretion, shall decide whether or not to underwrite its obligations
      under the Plan by actually investing amounts equal to the Company
      contributions in any investment vehicle. If the Company decides to invest
      its contributions, no Participant or Beneficiary will have any interest in
      those actual investments, even if those actual investments correspond to
      the Plan’s hypothetical investments, and even if the amounts invested
      correspond to the amounts of the Company’s hypothetical Plan
      contributions. Any investment the Company makes in connection with the
      Plan shall at all times remain part of the general assets of the Company,
      subject to the provisions of any Rabbi Trust to which any actual
      investment is transferred; and the rights of Participants and their
      Beneficiaries will remain those of unsecured general creditors of the
      company. 

	 
	 	
      Participants and their
      Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or
      equitable rights, claims, or interests in any specific property or assets
      of the Company, including any investments actually acquired in connection
      with the Company’s obligations under the Plan, except as may be provided
      for in a Rabbi Trust which the Company may choose to establish, as
      provided for in Section 8.2. No life insurance policy(ies) or other
      asset(s) of the Company shall be held by the Company, or by any other
      person or entity, in a fiduciary capacity, under any trust expressed or
      implied, for the benefit of Participants, their Beneficiaries, heirs,
      successors, or assigns (other than under a Rabbi Trust), or shall be held
      as collateral security for the fulfillment of the obligations of the
      Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company’s assets, including
      such Policies, shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted
      assets of the Company. 

	 
	 	
      Whether or not the Company sets
      aside assets in a Rabbi Trust in connection with this Plan, the Company’s
      obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and
      unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future.
  

	 
	8.2	Rabbi Trust. 
	 
	 	
      The Company may transfer cash,
      life insurance policies or any other assets to a Rabbi Trust which it may
      establish in connection with the Plan. 

	 
	 	
      In that event, Plan benefits may
      be paid, in the absolute discretion of the Company, from the Company’s
      other general assets, or from assets held in the Rabbi Trust.
    

	 
	 	
      In the event that assets are
      placed in a Rabbi Trust, those assets shall remain available to general
      creditors of the Company in the event of its insolvency.

AMENDMENT,
TERMINATION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL

	9.1	Amendment or
      Termination. 
	              
    	
	 	
      The Company reserves the right to
      amend, modify, suspend or terminate this Plan in whole or in part at
      anytime by action of its Board, to the extent permitted under Section 409A
      of the Code. No amendment shall reduce the Account credited to a
      Participant under this Plan as of the amendment date, except to the extent
      that the Participant agrees in writing to such a reduction.
  

	 
	9.2	Change of
      Control. 
	 
	 	
      Following a Change of Control (as
      that term is defined in the Employment Agreement), the Plan shall be
      continued by the surviving entity, and the participant’s rights under this
      Plan shall not be impaired without the consent of the Participant.

GENERAL
PROVISIONS 

	10.1	Payment to Minors and
      Incompetents. 
	              
    	
	 	
      If any Participant or Beneficiary
      entitled to receive any benefits hereunder is a minor or is deemed by the
      Plan Administrator, or adjudged to be, legally incapable of giving valid
      receipt and discharge for benefits received, benefits will be paid to such
      person or institution as the Plan Administrator may designate or to the
      duly appointed guardian of the Participant or Beneficiary, as the case may
      be. Any payment so made shall be deemed to be in complete discharge of the
      Participant or Beneficiary’s right to such payment under the Plan.
      

	 
	10.2	No Contract. 
	 
	 	
      This Plan shall not be deemed to
      create a contract of employment with any Participant, nor shall any
      provision of the Plan alter in any way the rights and responsibilities of
      the Company or any Participant under any employment agreement entered into
      by the Company and a Participant. 

	 
	10.3	Use of Masculine and Feminine;
      Singular and Plural. 
	 
	 	
      Wherever used in this Plan, the
      masculine gender will include the feminine gender and the singular will
      include the plural, unless the context indicates otherwise.
  

	 
	10.4	Non-Alienation of
      Benefits. 
	 
	 	
      No amount payable to, or held
      under the Plan for the account of, any Participant or Beneficiary shall be
      subject in any manner to alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge,
      encumbrance, or charge, and any attempt to so anticipate, alienate, sell,
      transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, or charge the same shall be void. Nor
      shall any amount payable to, or held under the Plan for the account of,
      any Participant or Beneficiary be in any manner liable for his debts,
      contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts, or be subject to any legal
      process to levy upon or attach. 

	 
	10.5	Protective
      Provisions. 
	 
	 	
      Each Participant shall cooperate
      with the Company by furnishing any and all information requested by the
      Company in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder, taking
      such physical examination as the Insurer may require and such other
      relevant action as may be requested by the Plan Administrator. If a
      Participant refuses to cooperate with any requirements reasonably imposed,
      the Company shall have no further obligation to the Participant under the
      Plan, other than payment to the Participant of the cumulative amounts
      previously deferred by the Participant under the Plan.

	10.6	Governing Law. 
	              
    	
	 	
      The provisions of the Plan shall
      be interpreted, construed, and administered in accordance with the laws of
      the State of North Carolina, except to the extent federal law (including,
      but not limited to, ERISA) applies. ERISA will govern all issues and
      matters relating to the Plan and shall preempt all state laws relating to
      the Plan. 

	 
	10.7	Captions. 
	 
	 	
      The captions contained in the
      Plan are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in
      no way define, limit, enlarge, or describe the scope or intent of the Plan
      nor in any way affect the construction of any provision of the
      Plan. 

	 
	10.8	Compliance with Section 409A
      of the Code.

PREAMBLE 

Investors Title Insurance Company (the
“Company”) previously established a non-qualified deferred compensation plan
referred to as the Investors Title Insurance Company Non-qualified Supplemental
Retirement Benefit Plan (the “Plan”), originally effective November 17, 2003.
The Company is amending and restating the Plan effective January 1, 2009 as set
forth herein to (i) reflect certain design changes to the Plan, (ii) provide for
the Plan’s documentary compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the
Code, and (iii) otherwise meet current needs. 

The purpose of this Plan is to provide
additional retirement benefits to Eligible Employees on a non-qualified,
tax-deferred basis. This Plan shall be unfunded and maintained primarily for the
purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or
highly compensated employees within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3)
and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”). The Plan is intended to be effective with respect to Compensation
earned after October 1, 2003.

Benefits are based upon hypothetical
Company contributions credited to Participant “Accounts”.

It is intended that funds accumulated
under this Plan on a Participant’s behalf will be paid to the Participant at a
specified future date determined under procedures described herein, or upon
disability or Termination of Employment. The Participant may select a lump sum,
or from among other payment options for Plan benefits. Upon the Participant’s
death, the Participant’s remaining Account balance, if any, will be paid to the
Participant’s named Beneficiary.

Account balances resulting from
employer contributions may be credited with interest, at a rate determined by
the Company, or with amounts reflecting and corresponding to the performance
(i.e., income, gains, losses, etc.) of a designated security or index. Further,
the Company may choose to set aside assets relating to Plan obligations in a
Rabbi Trust, the corpus of which will be available to the Company’s creditors in
the event of bankruptcy. However, the Company is under no obligation to invest
amounts deemed contributed to the Plan or to set aside funds in a Rabbi Trust.
In all cases, the Company may elect to pay the benefits promised hereunder from
other general assets. Notwithstanding the fact that the Company may set aside
assets in respect of its obligations under the Plan, the Plan is unfunded and
the rights of Participants and Beneficiaries are limited to those of general,
unsecured creditors of the Company.

      Except as provided in (b) and (c) below, an
      individual who is employed by the Company is an Eligible Employee with
      respect to a particular Plan Year only if he is both (i) within a select
      group of management or highly compensated Employees within the meaning of

	 	(b)	
      Each Eligible Employee must cooperate with
      the Company by furnishing any and all information requested by the Company
      in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder. Notwithstanding
      any provision in the Plan to the contrary, an individual who would
      otherwise be eligible to receive benefits under the Plan shall
      nevertheless be considered ineligible, and may be barred by the Company
      from participation in the Plan, (i) if he refuses to cooperate with any
      requirement which the Committee or Plan Administrator may reasonably
      impose; or (ii) if the Company chooses, in its discretion, to purchase one
      or more life insurance policies on the life of the individual in
      connection with its obligations under this plan, and the individual fails
      to submit a complete and accurate application in connection with the
      acquisition of the policy(ies), or fails to submit to any physical
      examination that the insurer may require, or fails to provide any other
      information that the insurer or Plan Administrator may reasonably request

ESTABLISHMENT OF
ACCOUNTS 

	3.1	Accounts.
	              
      	
	 	
      The Plan Administrator will
      establish and maintain separate memorandum Accounts for each Participant,
      for bookkeeping purpose only, which will be used to measure the amount of
      the Company’s liability to each Participant and Beneficiary under this
      Plan.

	 
	3.2	
      Credits and
      Debits to Accounts.

	 
	 	
      The Plan Administrator will, as
      often and as soon as may be reasonable and practicable, make such
      adjustments to the Accounts, by credit (addition) or debit (reduction), as
      may be necessary and/or appropriate to reflect:

	 
	 	(a)	
      Company
    contributions,

		              
      	
	 	(b)	
      any accrued interest (if Company
      contributions are deemed to be invested at interest), and

	 
	 	(c)	
      any income and/or expense, and
      any gain or loss (i.e., increase or decrease, whether realized or
      unrealized), associated with any other investment(s) in which the
      contributions are deemed be invested, so that the balance of any portion
      of the Account that is deemed to be invested will be adjusted in the same
      manner and amount that it would have been adjusted had the Account
      investment actually been made (i.e., so as to reflect the net amount
      invested, and any changes in the investment’s market or net asset
      value).

CONTRIBUTIONS AND
BENEFITS 

	4.1	Benefits.
	              
      	
	 	
      Participants (or their
      Beneficiaries) will be entitled to benefits from this Plan upon the
      Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason. Benefits will be
      based upon the value of a Participant’s Account, which will reflect
      credits for hypothetical “contributions” made by the Company, as well as
      additional credits (or debits) for the hypothetical investment performance
      of those Plan contributions, as hereinafter described.

	 
	4.2	Contributions.
	 
	 	
      For each calendar quarter during
      the Employment Period, the Company shall make a contribution on the
      Participant’s behalf to the Plan in an amount equal to twenty-two percent
      (22%) of the Participant’s Base Salary and Bonus Compensation paid during
      such calendar quarter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the
      Participant has a Termination of Employment before the Company has
      contributed said amount for twenty (20) calendar quarters, then in such
      event the Company shall make a lump sum contribution to the Plan equal to
      the number of calendar quarters less than twenty (20), using as a base for
      determining such amount twenty-two percent (22%) of the Participant’s Base
      Salary and Bonus Compensation for the twelve (12) months preceding the
      Termination of Employment. After the Company has contributed to the Plan
      an amount equal to twenty-two percent (22%) of the Participant’s Base
      Salary and Bonus Compensation paid during the calendar quarter for twenty
      (20) calendar quarters, the Company, in its sole discretion, may determine
      the amount, if any, contributed for subsequent calendar quarters during
      the Employment Period.

	  
	4.3	
      Changes in Base
      Salary and/or Base Compensation.

	 
	 	
      The rate of Company contribution
      shall continue in effect for the Employment Period to which it applies,
      notwithstanding any change in the Participant’s Base Salary and Bonus
      Compensation which may occur during such year.

	 
	4.4	Crediting of Contributions.
	 
	 	
      Company contributions to the Plan
      will be credited to a Participant’s Account within ten (10) days after the
      end of the calendar quarter to which the contribution relates. No amount
      shall actually be set aside for payment under this Plan, and the existence
      of the Account shall not create and shall not be deemed to create a trust
      of any kind, or fiduciary relationship between the Company and the
      Participant or his Beneficiary.

	 		 
	4.5	Taxation.
	 
	 	
      Amounts credited to a
      Participant’s account under this Plan are subject to rules of taxation
      (including employment taxes) as may be applicable from time to time. Any
      taxes owing in a year will be deducted from a Participant’s Base Salary
      and/or Bonus Compensation pursuant to rules established by the
      Committee.

6 

	4.6	
      Deemed
      Investment of Contributions.

	              
      	
	 	
      Solely for the purpose of
      measuring the Company’s liability to a Participant under the Plan, Company
      contributions credited to Participant Accounts will be deemed invested as
      the Participant/Committee shall from time to time determine. Credits to
      Participant Accounts for hypothetical investment performance will, if
      amounts are deemed invested at interest, be based upon a rate of interest
      determined by the Board from time to time. Otherwise, such credits (or
      debits) will be based upon the performance of a security, index or other
      investment (or upon any other method) determined by the Committee and
      specified in an Appendix to this Plan, which will be amended, as
      appropriate, to reflect any change in the investment made by the
      Committee. 

	 
	4.7	
      Company
      Investments.

	 
	 	
      The Company, in its sole
      discretion, shall decide whether or not to underwrite its obligations
      under the Plan by actually investing its hypothetical contributions. If
      the Company decides to invest any amounts, Plan Participants and
      Beneficiaries shall have no interest (other than those of unsecured
      general creditors) in such actual investments even if they correspond to
      the securities, index or other hypothetical investments used for the
      measurement of Plan benefits. Any investment the Company may actually make
      in connection with the Plan shall at all times remain part of the general
      assets of the Company, within the Company’s control and available for any
      Company purpose, subject to the provisions of any Rabbi Trust to which any
      actual investment is transferred; and the rights of Participants and their
      Beneficiaries will remain those of unsecured general creditors of the
      Company.

EVENTS 

	5.1	
      Benefits
      Following Retirement and Certain Other Events.

	              
      	
	 	
      Upon a Participant’s Termination
      of Employment for any reason other than as a result of such Participant’s
      Termination for Disability (as that term is defined in the Employment
      Agreement) or death, the Company will pay benefits to the Participant (or
      his Beneficiary) in the amount and manner described in Article
      6.

	 
	5.2	
      Benefits
      Following a Termination for Disability.

	 
	 	(a)	In the event that a
      Participant’s Termination of Employment is the result of such
      Participant’s Termination for Disability (as that term is defined in the
      Employment Agreement), such Participant’s Termination of Employment will
      be deemed to have occurred on the date specified by the Board in
      accordance with Section 409A of the Code and the Company’s 409A Policy, if
      any, and the Company will pay benefits to the Participant (or his
      Beneficiary) in the amount and manner as described in Article
    6.

		              
      	 
	 	(b)	For the purpose of
      this Article, subject to Section 409A of the Code and the terms of the
      Company’s 409A Policy, a Participant who is otherwise disabled and absent
      from employment with the Company due to that disability will be considered
      to be employed in the active, full-time service of the Company for as long
      as he remains disabled.

	 
	5.3	Death
      Benefits.
	 
	 	(a)	Prior to his death,
      a Participant shall have the right to designate a Beneficiary or
      beneficiaries for the amount payable under this Section 5.3, and to select
      a separate payment option for benefits commencing upon death, upon a form
      approved by the Plan Administrator.

	 
	 	(b)	If the
      Participant’s Termination of Employment occurs as a result of such
      Participant’s death, the Participant’s Account will be paid to the
      Participant’s named Beneficiary(ies) according to a form of payment option
      described in Section 6.3 (or otherwise permitted by the Plan
      Administrator) and elected by the Participant separately for this
      post-death benefit distribution. Payment of these amounts will commence as
      soon as may be practicable under procedures established by the Plan
      Administrator.

	 
	 	(c)	If a Participant
      dies after his Benefit Commencement Date but prior to receiving a
      distribution of his entire Account, and the Participant had not elected a
      single life annuity option for his retirement benefit, the balance
      remaining in his Account (or, in the event that the Participant elected an
      annuity payable over the life of Participant and spouse, the survivor
      annuity) will be paid to the Participant’s named Beneficiary(ies) (or
      surviving annuitant) according to the Participant’s election for
      retirement benefits, for the remainder of the period over which the
      retirement benefits were to be paid.

8 

		(d)	
      Unless the Participant’s
      Beneficiary designation provides to the contrary, the following will apply
      with respect to payments after the Participant’s death:

	              
      	              
      	
		 	(i)	
      If the primary Beneficiary
      survives the Participant but dies before all amounts due to the
      Beneficiary under the Plan are paid out, the present value of any payments
      due after the death of the primary Beneficiary will be paid to the
      Beneficiary’s estate in a lump sum.

			              
      	
		 	(ii)	
      If the primary Beneficiary does
      not survive the Participant, any payments due after the death of the
      Participant will be paid to the contingent Beneficiary or, if none is
      named or none survives the Participant, the present value of all amounts
      not yet paid to the Participant will be paid to the Participant’s estate
      in a lump sum.

		 
		 	(iii)	
      In the case of installment
      payments other than an annuity, the present value of amounts not yet paid
      will be the remaining Account Balance.

		 
		 	(iv)	
      In the case of an annuity, the
      present value will be determined by the Plan Administrator using the
      mortality table set forth in Revenue Ruling 95-6, 1995-1 CB 80 and a
      reasonable interest determined by the Plan Administrator considering the
      type of annuity and prevailing market rates.

		  

	5.4	Payor.
	              
      	
	 	
      The Company may pay directly any
      amounts due under the Plan to a Participant or Beneficiary, or it may
      delegate responsibility for payments to a trustee or other third
      party.

	 
	5.5	
      One-Time Benefit
      Event.

	 
	 	
      Notwithstanding any other
      provision to the contrary, a Participant may elect to receive a
      distribution equal to 100% of his Account under the Plan provided that
      such election is (i) in writing; and (ii) received by the Plan
      Administrator no later than December 31, 2008. Such distribution will
      occur on January 15, 2009.

      the Account Balance on the Valuation Date immediately preceding the
      payment, divided by the remaining number of installment payments to be
      made. For the purpose of determining the amount of all payments following,
      the first payment, interest shall be credited to the Account Balance
      remaining after the first payment at such rate as the Board may determine
      from time to time (but not less than five percent (5%));

      Life Annuity
      Options. For Account balances of not
      less than $10,000, equal annual installments, beginning on or within
      thirty days after the Participant’s Benefit Commencement Date, payable
      over the life of the Participant, or over the lives of the Participant and
      spouse, with or without a minimum period certain, as elected by the
      Participant at the commencement of his participation in the Plan, or in a
      later change of form of payment made pursuant to Section 6.3. This annuity
      will be the actuarial equivalent of the Account balance on the Valuation
      Date immediately preceding first payment, as determined by the Plan
      Administrator using the mortality table set forth in Revenue Ruling 95-6,
      1995-1 CB 80 and a reasonable interest rate determined by the Plan
      Administrator considering the type of annuity and prevailing market
      rates.

      Election of
      Payment Options and Deferral of Benefits.

	              
      	
	 	(a)	
      Elections as to the manner of
      distribution of the Participant’s Account will be made upon forms provided
      by and according to procedures established by the Plan Administrator. At
      the commencement of an Eligible Employee’s participation in the Plan, he
      shall be required to make a written election indicating his form of
      payment option. This election will be binding and apply to all amounts
      held for the Participant under the Plan except as provided under (b)
      below.

	 
	 	(b)	
      A Participant will have one
      opportunity to postpone the commencement of his benefits and/or change his
      initial election regarding the form of payment option for his Account, as
      follows: At least twelve (12) months prior to the date on which
      distribution would otherwise commence, the Participant may elect to
      postpone, but not accelerate, his Benefit Commencement Date to a later
      specified date which may not be earlier than five years after the date on
      which distribution would otherwise commence. A Participant may also elect
      to specify a different form of payment, provided, however, that any such
      election will provide for a specified date for distribution which may not
      be earlier than five years after the date on which distribution would
      otherwise commence. Any election which is determined, considering the date
      upon which the Participant terminates or is deemed to have terminated
      under Article 5, to have been made too late, and not otherwise in
      accordance with this Section 6.4 or Section 409A of the Code, will be void
      and without effect.

ADMINISTRATION AND CLAIMS
PROCEDURE 

	7.1	Administration.
	              
      	
	 	
      The Plan shall be administered by
      the Board, which shall have the authority, duty and power to interpret and
      construe the provisions of the Plan as the Board deems appropriate
      including the authority to determine eligibility for benefits under the
      Plan. The Board shall have the duty and responsibility of maintaining

      hereunder. The interpretations, determinations, regulations and
      calculations of the Board shall be final and binding on all persons and

      if the Plan Administrator decides in its discretion that the applicant is
      entitled to them.

	 
	7.2	
      Expenses;
      Reliance on Third Parties.

	 
	 	
      Expenses of administration shall
      be paid by the Company. The Board shall be entitled to rely on all tables,
      valuations, certificates, opinions, data and reports furnished by any
      actuary, accountant, controller, counselor other person employed or
      retained by the Company with respect to the Plan.

	 
	7.3	
      Annual

      Beneficiary, in such form as determined by the Board.

	 
	7.4	
      Appointment of a
      Conservator.

	 
	 	
      The Company may from time to time
      establish rules and procedures which it determines to be necessary for the
      proper administration of the Plan and the benefits payable to an
      individual in the event that individual is declared incompetent and a
      conservator or other person legally charged with that individual’s care is
      appointed. Except as otherwise provided herein, when the Company
      determines that such individual is unable to manage his or her financial
      affairs, the Company may pay such individual’s benefits to such
      conservator, person legally charged with such individual’s care, or
      institution then contributing toward or providing for the care and
      maintenance of such individual. Any such payment shall constitute a
      complete discharge of any liability of the Company and the Plan for such
      individual.

	 
	7.5	
      Limitation of
      Liability.

	 
	 	
      Notwithstanding any provision
      herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor any individual acting as
      an employee or agent of the Company shall be liable to any Participant,
      former Participant, designated Beneficiary, or any other person for any
      claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan,
      unless attributable to fraud or willful misconduct on the part of the
      Company or any such employee or agent of the
  Company.

	7.6	Claims for Benefits.
	              
      	
	 	
      All claims for benefits shall be
      handled through the following procedure:

	 
	 	(a)	
      Claim. A person who believes that he is being denied a
      benefit to which he is entitled under the Plan (hereinafter referred to as
      a “Claimant”) may file a written request for such benefit with the
      Company, setting forth his claim. The request must be addressed to the
      Plan Administrator at the Company’s then principal place of
      business.

		              
      	
	 	(b)	
      Claim Decision. Upon receipt of a claim, the Plan Administrator shall
      advise the Claimant that a reply will be forthcoming within ninety (90)
      days and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such period. The Plan
      Administrator may, however, extend the reply period for an additional
      ninety (90) days for reasonable cause.

	 
	 	 	
      If the claim is denied in whole
      or in part, the Plan Administrator shall adopt a written opinion, using
      language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting
      forth:

	 
	 	 	(i)	
      The specific reason or reasons
      for such denial;

			              
      	
	 	 	(ii)	
      The specific reference to
      pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which such denial is
      based;

	 
	 	 	(iii)	
      A description of any additional
      material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his claim
      and an explanation why such material or such information is
      necessary;

	 
	 	 	(iv)	
      Appropriate information as to the
      steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit the claim for review;
      and

	 
	 	 	(v)	
      The time limits for requesting a
      review under Section 7.6(c) and for review under Section
    7.6(d).

	 
	 	(c)	
      Request for
      Review. Within sixty (60) days after
      the receipt by the Claimant of the written opinion described above, the
      Claimant may request in writing that the Assistant Secretary of the
      Company review the determination of the Company. Such request must be
      addressed to the Assistant Secretary of the Company, at its then principal
      place of business. The Claimant or his duly authorized representative may,
      but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and
      comments in writing for consideration by the Company. If the Claimant does
      not request a review of the Company’s determination by the Assistant
      Secretary of the Company within such sixty (60) day period, he shall be
      barred and estopped from challenging the Company’s
      determination.

	  
	 	(d)	
      Review of
      Decision. Within sixty (60) days after
      the Assistant Secretary’s receipt of a request for review, he will review
      the Company’s determination. After considering all materials presented by
      the Claimant, the Assistant Secretary will render a written opinion,
      written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting
      forth the specific reasons for the decision and containing specific
      references to the pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which the
      decision is based. If special circumstances require that the sixty (60)
      day time period be extended, the Assistant Secretary will so notify the
      Claimant and will render the decision as soon as possible, but no later
      than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request for
      review.

FUNDING 

	8.1	In
      General.
	              
      	
	 	
      This Plan is unfunded. The rights
      of a Participant or Beneficiary are those of an unsecured general creditor
      of the Company. In general, benefits will be paid by the Company from its
      general assets when due.

	 
	 	
      The Company, in its sole
      discretion, shall decide whether or not to underwrite its obligations
      under the Plan by actually investing amounts equal to the Company
      contributions in any investment vehicle. If the Company decides to invest
      its contributions, no Participant or Beneficiary will have any interest in
      those actual investments, even if those actual investments correspond to
      the Plan’s hypothetical investments, and even if the amounts invested
      correspond to the amounts of the Company’s hypothetical Plan
      contributions. Any investment the Company makes in connection with the
      Plan shall at all times remain part of the general assets of the Company,
      subject to the provisions of any Rabbi Trust to which any actual
      investment is transferred; and the rights of Participants and their
      Beneficiaries will remain those of unsecured general creditors of the
      Company.

	 
	 	
      Participants and their
      Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or
      equitable rights, claims, or interests in any specific property or assets
      of the Company, including any investments actually acquired in connection
      with the Company’s obligations under the Plan, except as may be provided
      for in a Rabbi Trust which the Company may choose to establish, as
      provided for in Section 8.2. No life insurance policy(ies) or other
      asset(s) of the Company shall be held by the Company, or by any other
      person or entity, in a fiduciary capacity, under any trust expressed or
      implied, for the benefit of Participants, their Beneficiaries, heirs,
      successors, or assigns (other than under a Rabbi Trust), or shall be held
      as collateral security for the fulfillment of the obligations of the
      Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company’s assets, including
      such Policies, shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted
      assets of the Company.

	 
	 	
      Whether or not the Company sets
      aside assets in a Rabbi Trust in connection with this Plan, the Company’s
      obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and
      unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the
  future.

	 
	8.2	
      Rabbi
      Trust.

	 
	 	
      The Company may transfer cash,
      life insurance policies or any other assets to a Rabbi Trust which it may
      establish in connection with the Plan.

	 
	 	
      In that event, Plan benefits may
      be paid, in the absolute discretion of the Company, from the Company’s
      other general assets, or from assets held in the Rabbi
  Trust.

	 
	 	
      In the event that assets are
      placed in a Rabbi Trust, those assets shall remain available to general
      creditors of the Company in the event of its
  insolvency.

  reduction.
