Such term shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the definition of “service recipient” contained in Section 409A of the Code.
		
	(d)
	Beneficiary:  The person or persons or entity designated as such in accordance with Article 8 of the Program.

		
	(e)
	Board:  The Board of Directors of the Company.

		
	(f)

	(g)
	Change in Control:  The occurrence of one of the following events:

		
	(1)
	A change in ownership of the Company, which occurs on the date that any one person or more than one person acting as a group (within the meaning of the Regulations) acquires ownership of stock of the Company that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any one person or group is considered to own more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or group is not considered to cause a change in the ownership of the Company or a change in the effective control of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1(g)(2) of this Program). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires ownership of more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company as a result of the acquisition by the Company of stock of the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the percentage of shares beneficially owned by such person; provided, that if a Change in Control would occur as a result of such an acquisition by the Company (if not for the operation of this sentence), and after the Company’s acquisition such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional stock of the Company that increases the percentage of outstanding shares of stock of the Company owned by such person, a Change in Control shall then occur.

		
	(2)
	A change in effective control of the Company, which occurs on either of the following dates:

		
	(i)
	The date that any one person or more than one person acting as a group (within the meaning of the Regulations) acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or group) ownership of stock of the Company possessing 30% or more of the total voting 

2
607383560.7

power of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any one person or group is considered to own 30% or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or group is not considered to cause a change in the effective control of the Company or a change in ownership of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1(g)(1) of this Program). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires ownership of more than 30% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company as a result of the acquisition by the Company of stock of the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the percentage of shares beneficially owned by such person; provided, that if a Change in Control would occur as a result of such an acquisition by the Company (if not for the operation of this sentence), and after the Company’s acquisition such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional stock of the Company that increases the percentage of outstanding shares of stock of the Company owned by such person, a Change in Control shall then occur.
		
	(ii)
	The date that a majority of the Board is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election was not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board prior to the date of such appointment or election.

		
	(3)
	A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets, which occurs on the date that any one person or more than one person acting as a group (within the meaning of the Regulations) acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or group) assets that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 65% of the total gross fair market value of all the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions. The gross fair market value of assets shall be determined without regard to liabilities associated with such assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transfer of assets shall not result in a change in ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets if such transfer is to:

		
	(i)
	a shareholder of the Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to its stock;

		
	(ii)
	an entity 50% or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company;

3
607383560.7

		
	(iii)
	a person or group (within the meaning of the Regulations) that owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of the stock of the Company; or

		
	(iv)
	an entity, at least 50% of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly by a person or group described in Section 1(g)(3)(iii) of this Program.

Notwithstanding Sections 1(g)(1), 1(g)(2)(i) and 1(g)(3) above, the consummation of a Business Combination shall not be deemed a Change in Control if, immediately following such Business Combination:  (a) more than 50% of the total voting power of the Surviving Corporation or, if applicable, the Parent Corporation of such Surviving Corporation, is represented by Company Voting Securities that were outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination (or, if applicable, shares into which such Company Voting Securities were converted pursuant to such Business Combination); and such voting power among the holders thereof is in substantially the same proportion as the voting power of such Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof immediately prior to the Business Combination; (b) no person (other than any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Surviving Corporation or the Parent Corporation) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 20% or more of the total voting power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to elect directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation); and (c) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation), following the Business Combination, were members of the Company’s Board at the time of the Board’s approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an acquisition of stock of the Company described in Section 1(g)(1) or 1(g)(2)(i) above shall not be deemed to be a Change in Control by virtue of any of the following situations:  (a) an acquisition by the Company or any Subsidiary; (b) an acquisition by any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary; (c) an acquisition by any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (d) the acquisition of stock of the Company from the Company.

	(iv)
	a Non-Control transaction (as defined in paragraph (3));

		
	(v)
	as pertains to a Participant, any acquisition by the Participant or any group of persons (within the meaning of Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) including the Participant (or any entity in which the Participant or a group of persons including the Participant, directly or indirectly, holds a majority of the voting power of such entity’s outstanding voting interests); or

		
	(vi)
	the acquisition of Company Voting Securities from the Company, if a majority of the Board approves a resolution providing expressly that the acquisition pursuant to this clause (vi) does not constitute a Corporate Change Vesting Event under this paragraph (1);

		
	(2)
	individuals who, at the beginning of any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, that any person becoming a director subsequent to the beginning of such twenty-four (24) month period, whose election, or nomination for election, by the Company’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board who are then on the Board (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which such person is named as a nominee for director, without objection to such nomination) shall be, for purposes of this paragraph (2), considered as though such person were a member of the 

6
607383560.7

Incumbent Board; provided, however, that no individual initially elected or nominated as a director of the Company as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to directors or any other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any person other than the Board shall be deemed to be a member of the Incumbent Board;
		
	(3)
	the consummation of a Business Combination, unless:

		
	(i)
	immediately following such Business Combination:

		
	(A)
	more than 50% of the total voting power of the Surviving Corporation resulting from such Business Combination or, if applicable, the Parent Corporation of such Surviving Corporation, is represented by Company Voting Securities that were outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination (or, if applicable, shares into which such Company Voting Securities were converted pursuant to such Business Combination), and such voting power among the holders thereof is in substantially the same proportion as the voting power of such Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof immediately prior to the Business Combination;

		
	(B)
	no person (other than any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Surviving Corporation or the Parent Corporation) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 20% or more of the total voting power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to elect directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation); and

		
	(C)
	at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation), following the Business Combination, were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the Board’s approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such Business Combination (a “Non-Control Transaction”); or

		
	(ii)
	the Business Combination is effected by means of the acquisition of Company Voting Securities from the Company, and a majority of the Board approves a resolution providing expressly that such Business Combination does not constitute a Corporate Change Vesting Event under this paragraph (3); or

7
607383560.7

		
	(4)
	the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Corporate Change Vesting Event shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires beneficial ownership of more than 20% of the Company Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Company Voting Securities by the Company which, by reducing the number of Company Voting Securities outstanding, increases the percentage of shares beneficially owned by such person; provided, that if a Corporate Change Vesting Event would occur as a result of such an acquisition by the Company (if not for the operation of this sentence), and after the Company’s acquisition such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional Company Voting Securities that increases the percentage of outstanding Company Voting Securities beneficially owned by such person, a Corporate Change Vesting Event shall then occur.
Notwithstanding anything in this Program to the contrary, if the Participant’s employment is terminated prior to a Corporate Change Vesting Event, and the Participant reasonably demonstrates that such termination was at the request of a third party who has indicated an intention or taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Corporate Change Vesting Event, then for all purposes of this Program, the date immediately prior to the date of such termination of employment shall be deemed to be the date of a Corporate Change Vesting Event for such Participant.

	Crediting Rate:  For any Participant’s Account over any period, the notional gains or losses equal to those that would have been generated if the Account had been invested in those investment alternatives available under the Savings Restoration Plan (or as otherwise designated by the Investment Committee) as shall have been chosen by such Participant for such period.

A Participant may elect to allocate his or her Account among the available investment alternatives.  The gains or losses shall be credited based upon the daily unit values for the alternative(s) selected by the Participant.  The Participant’s allocation is solely for the purpose of calculating the Crediting Rate.

An individual may be designated a Participant by action of the Compensation Committee or in a written employment agreement approved by the Compensation Committee. Participation of each individual designated as a Participant shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations set forth in the Program and to such other terms, conditions and limitations as the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, impose upon the participation of any such individual at the time the individual is designated a Participant in the Program.

Subject only to the provisions of Section 2.04 and Article 7, an individual designated as a Participant shall continue to be a Participant for the purpose of eligibility to receive the supplemental retirement benefits provided by the Program and his or her participation in the Program shall not be terminated; provided, however, that a Participant who terminates employment at a time when he or she is not eligible for a benefit under Article 3 shall cease to be a Participant in the Program.

2.05    13-Month Service Requirement.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Program, a Participant shall not be eligible for supplemental retirement benefits under the Program unless the Participant remains employed by the Affiliated Group until the date that is 13 months after the date upon which he is designated as a Participant; provided, however, that the 13-month service requirement of this Section 2.05 shall be deemed to be satisfied upon the earlier of the Participant’s death, Disability, or the occurrence of a Change in Control.

	(b)
	such Participant’s (but not a Recipient’s) Account shall be increased by the product of (i) the lesser of (A) three (3) and (B) the quotient resulting from dividing the number of full and partial months from the date of a Corporate Change Vesting Event until the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, by twelve (12) and (ii) his or her Contribution Percentage for the Plan Year in which the Corporate Change Vesting Event occurs, based upon the Participant’s salary grade on the date of the Corporate Change Vesting Event and the Corporate Change Vesting Event Compensation.

To the extent permitted by Section 1.409A-2(a)(5) of the Regulations, within 30 days of the time an individual is designated as a Participant under this Program, he or she may elect, on his or her initial Participation Agreement, to receive payment of his or her supplemental retirement benefit under this Program in the form of a single lump sum payment equal to the value of his or her account as of the Valuation Date or in substantially equal annual installments over five, ten or fifteen years commencing on the date specified in Section 4.01 and on January 1 of each succeeding year in the applicable 5, 10 or 15 year period.

	(2)
	as a result of any such election, payment shall be delayed for five (5) years from the date the payment was scheduled to commence or to be made (taking into account any delay in payment or commencement of payment under Section 4.01 on account of a Participant’s status as a Specified Employee).

Thirty (30) days after a Change in Control, in lieu of any other payments due with respect to benefits earned under the Program to the date of the Change in Control, each Participant and each Recipient shall receive a lump sum payment equal to the value of his or her account as of the Valuation Date.

		
	(d)
	Special Rule Applicable to Specified Employees.  If a Specified Employee dies after Termination of Employment but prior to commencement of benefits, the Specified Employee’s Beneficiary shall receive a payment as of the first of the month following the Specified Employee’s date of death equal to the aggregate of the monthly payments that would have been made to the Specified Employee in accordance with Section 4.01 but substituting the Specified Employee’s date of death for the actual commencement of payment.  Any additional amounts payable to the Specified Employee’s Beneficiary shall be determined as of the Specified Employee’s date of death in accordance with the form of payment applicable to the Specified Employee as of the Specified Employee’s Termination of Employment.

		
	(e)

	Non-Competition

7.01    Condition of Payment.  In consideration of payment of supplemental retirement benefits under the Program, whether in the form of a lump-sum payment or installment payments, the Participant or retiree Recipient shall not engage in competition (as defined in Section 7.02) with the Company at any time during the five (5) year period after the date of 

15
607383560.7

Termination of Employment with the Company; provided, however, that this Section 7.01 shall not apply to a Participant following his or her Termination of Employment if such Termination of Employment occurs after the date of a Corporate Change Vesting Event that occurs at the time the Participant is actively employed by the Affiliated Group.
7.02    Competition.  Competition for purposes of the Program shall mean assuming an ownership position or a consulting, management, employee or director position with a business engaged in the manufacture, processing, purchase or distribution of products of the type manufactured, processed or distributed by the Affiliated Group; provided, however, that in no event shall ownership of less than two percent of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote for the election of directors of a corporation with a class of equity securities held of record by more than 500 persons in itself be deemed Competition; and provided further, that all of the following shall have taken place:
		
	(a)
	the Secretary of the Company shall have given written notice to the Participant or retiree-Recipient that, in the opinion of the Compensation Committee, the Participant or retiree-Recipient is engaged in Competition within the meaning of the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.02, specifying the details;

		
	(b)

	(c)
	following any hearing pursuant to Section 7.02(b), the Secretary of the Company shall have given written notice to the Participant or retiree-Recipient that the Compensation Committee determined that the Participant or retiree-Recipient is engaged in Competition; and

		
	(d)
	the Participant or retiree-Recipient shall neither have ceased to engage in such Competition within thirty days from his or her receipt of notice of such determination nor diligently taken all reasonable steps to that end during such thirty-day period and thereafter.

		
	8.
	Beneficiary Designation

The Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any person or persons as Beneficiary (both primary and contingent) to whom payment under the Program shall be made in the event of the Participant’s death. The Beneficiary designation shall be effective when it is submitted in writing to the Administrator during the Participant’s lifetime on a form prescribed by the Administrator.
The submission of a new Beneficiary designation shall cancel all prior Beneficiary designations. Any finalized divorce or marriage of a Participant subsequent to the date of a Beneficiary designation shall revoke such designation, unless in the case of divorce the previous 

16
607383560.7

Spouse was not designated as Beneficiary and unless in the case of marriage the Participant’s new Spouse has previously been designated as Beneficiary. The Spouse of a married Participant shall consent to any designation of a Beneficiary other than the Spouse, and the Spouse’s consent shall be witnessed by a notary public.
If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided above, or if the Beneficiary designation is revoked by marriage, divorce, or otherwise without execution of a new designation, or if every person designated as Beneficiary predeceases the Participant or dies prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, then the Administrator shall direct the distribution of such benefits to the estate of the last to die of the Participant and the Beneficiaries.
		
	9.
	General Provisions

9.01    Claims Procedure.  The Administrator shall notify a Participant in writing, within ninety (90) days after his or her written application for benefits, of his or her eligibility or noneligibility for benefits under the Program. If the Administrator determines that a Participant is not eligible for benefits or full benefits, the notice shall set forth:
		
	(a)
	the specific reasons for such denial;

		
	(b)
	a specific reference to the provisions of the Program on which the denial is based;

		
	(c)
	a description of any additional information or material necessary for the claimant to perfect his or her claim, and a description of why it is needed; and

		
	(d)
	an explanation of the Program’s claims review procedure and other appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Participant wishes to have the claim reviewed. If the Administrator determines that there are special circumstances requiring additional time to make a decision, the Administrator shall notify the Participant of the special circumstances and the date by which a decision is expected to be made, and may extend the time for up to an additional ninety-day period.

9.02    Review Procedure.  If a Participant is determined by the Administrator not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Participant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Participant shall have the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Administrator by filing a petition for review with the Administrator within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice issued by the Administrator. The petition shall state the specific reasons which the Participant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits. Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Administrator of the petition, the Administrator shall afford the Participant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his or her position to the Administrator in writing, and the Participant (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents. The Administrator shall notify the Participant of its decision in writing within the sixty-day period, stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Participant and the specific provisions of the Program on which the decision is based. If the sixty-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred 

17
607383560.7

for up to another sixty-day period at the election of the Administrator, but notice of this deferral shall be given to the Participant. In the event of the death of the Participant, the same procedures shall apply to the Participant’s Beneficiary.
9.03    ERISA Plan.  The Program is intended to be an unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for “a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of Sections 201, 301 and 401 of ERISA and therefore to be exempt from Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA.
9.04    Trust.  The Company shall be responsible for the payment of all benefits under the Program. The Company may establish one or more grantor trusts for the purpose of providing for payment of benefits under the Program. Such trust or trusts may be irrevocable, but the assets thereof shall be subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors. Benefits paid to a Participant from any such trust shall be considered paid by the Company for purposes of meeting the obligations of the Company under the Program.
9.05    Rights of Participants.  Except as expressly provided in any grantor trust agreement established by the Company:
		
	(a)
	no Participant or Recipient shall have any right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any investments which the Company may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under the Program;

		
	(b)
	nothing contained in the Program shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant, Recipient or any other person;

		
	(c)
	to the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under the Program, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company; and

		
	(d)
	all payments to be made under the Program shall be paid from the general funds of the Company and no special or separate fund shall be established and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of amounts payable under the Program.

9.06    Administration.  The Administrator shall be responsible for the general administration of the Program and for carrying out the provisions thereof. Any act authorized, permitted or required to be taken by the Company under the Program may be taken by action of the appropriate Committee.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.01 relating to denial of claims and claims review procedure, any action taken by a Committee which is authorized, permitted or required under the Program shall be final and binding upon the Company, all persons who have or who claim an interest under the Program, and all third parties dealing with the Company.
9.07    Program Non-Contractual. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a commitment or agreement on the part of any person to continue his or her employment with the 

18
607383560.7

Company, and nothing herein contained shall be construed as a commitment on the part of the Company to continue the employment or the rate of compensation of any such person for any period, and all employees of the Company shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Program had never been put into effect.
9.08    Non-Alienation of Retirement Rights or Benefits. No right or benefit under the Program shall at any time be subject in any manner to alienation or encumbrances. If any person shall attempt to, or shall, alienate or in any way encumber his or her rights or benefits under the Program, or any part thereof, or if by reason of his or her bankruptcy or other event happening at any time any such benefits would otherwise be received by anyone else or would not be enjoyed by him or her, his or her interest in all such benefits shall automatically terminate and the same, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, shall be held or applied to or for the benefit of such person, his or her Spouse, children, or other dependents as the Compensation Committee may select.
9.09    Payment of Benefits to Others. If any person to whom a supplemental retirement benefit is payable is unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness or accident, any payment due (unless prior claim therefor shall have been made by a duly qualified guardian or legal representative) may be paid to the Spouse, parent, brother, or sister, or any other individual deemed by the Administrator to be maintaining or responsible for the maintenance of such person. Any payment made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.08 shall be a complete discharge of any liability of the Program with respect to the supplemental retirement benefit so paid.
9.10    Notices.  All notices provided for by the Program shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently given if and when mailed in the continental United States by registered or certified mail or personally delivered to the party entitled thereto at the address stated below or to such changed address as the addressee may have given by a similar notice:
		
	To the Company or the Administrator:
	Attention:  Secretary

Cleveland, Ohio 44124-4141

		
	To the Participant:
	Address of residence on file with the Company

Any such notice delivered in person shall be deemed to have been received on the date of delivery.
9.11    Amendment, Modification, Termination.  The Program may at any time be terminated, or at any time or from time to time be amended or otherwise modified, prospectively, by the Board of Directors of the Company or by the committee or individual authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company to exercise such powers; provided, however, that no such termination, amendment or modification of the Program shall operate to:

	(e)
	permit an acceleration of time of payment of a Participant’s benefit under the Program, other than:

		
	(1)
	as necessary to comply with a certificate of divestiture, as defined in Section 1043(b)(2) of the Code;

		
	(2)
	as necessary to pay Federal Insurance Contribution (“FICA”) taxes and any resulting federal, state, local or foreign income taxes attributable to amounts deferred under the Program, subject to the limitations of Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(vi) of the Regulations;

		
	(3)
	in the event the arrangement fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to one or more Participants, and then only in such amount as is included in income of such Participant(s) as a result of such failure;

		
	(4)
	due to a termination of the Program that meets the requirements of Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) of the Regulations; or

		
	(5)
	as otherwise may be permitted under Section 409A of the Code.

9.12    Applicable Law. Except to the extent preempted by ERISA or the Code, the laws of the State of Ohio shall govern the Program and any disputes arising thereunder.
9.13    Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the person or persons may require. As the context may require, the singular may be read as the plural and the plural as the singular.

Exhibit 10(d)

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED
SAVINGS RESTORATION PLAN

Adopted:  December 16, 2015
Effective:   January 22, 2015

Parker-Hannifin Corporation, an Ohio corporation, (the "Company"), established this Savings Restoration Plan (the "Plan"), originally effective October 1, 1994, for the purpose of attracting high quality executives and promoting in its executives increased efficiency and an interest in the successful operation of the Company by restoring some of the deferral opportunities and employer-provided benefits that are lost under The Parker Retirement Savings Plan due to legislative limits. 

The Plan has been amended and restated from time to time.  The Plan underwent significant and comprehensive changes when it was amended during December 2005 to provide for certain transitional rules and was amended and restated as of July 21, 2008 and such other dates as specified herein to reflect the requirements of the American Jobs Creation Act (“the Act”) with respect to the terms and conditions applicable to amounts that are deferred under the Savings Restoration Plan after December 31, 2004 and subject to Section 409A of the Code.  Except as otherwise specifically provided in Sections 4.1(a), 6.2(c) and 8.4 of this Plan, all benefits deferred and vested under the Plan prior to January 1, 2005 and any additional amounts that are not subject to Section 409A of the Code, including the portion of a Participant's Excess RIA Account that was vested under the terms of the Plan in effect on December 31, 2004 and earnings thereon, (the “Grandfathered Amounts”) shall continue to be subject solely to the terms of the separate Plan as in effect on December 31, 2004.  The Plan will be administered in a manner consistent with the Act and Section 409A of the Code and any Regulations or other guidance thereunder and any provision in the Plan that is inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code shall be void and without effect.  Notwithstanding anything else in the Plan to the contrary, nothing herein shall be read to preclude the Plan from using any transition rules permitted under the Act, provided that no action will be permitted with respect to the Grandfathered Amounts that will subject such amounts to Section 409A of the Code. 

The Plan is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as of January 22, 2015.

	1.4.
	Affiliated Group shall mean the Company and all entities with which the Company would be considered a single employer under Sections 414(b) and 414(c) of the Code, provided that in applying Section 1563(a)(1), (2), and (3) of the Code for purposes of determining a controlled group of corporations under Section 414(b) of the Code, the language "at least 50 percent" is used instead of "at least 80 percent" each place it appears in Section 1563(a)(1), (2), and (3) of the Code, and in applying Section 1.414(c)-2 of the Treasury Regulations for purposes of determining trades or businesses (whether or not incorporated) that are under common control for purposes of Section 414(c) of the Code, "at least 50 percent" is used instead of "at least 80 percent" each place it appears in that regulation.

	1.9.
	Change in Control means the occurrence of one of the following events:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any one person or group is considered to own more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or group is not considered to cause a change in the ownership of the Company or a change in the effective control of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.9(b) of this Plan).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires ownership of more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company as a result of the acquisition by the Company of stock of the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the percentage of shares beneficially owned by such person; provided, that if a Change in Control would 

2
607380684.7

occur as a result of such an acquisition by the Company (if not for the operation of this sentence), and after the Company's acquisition such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional stock of the Company that increases the percentage of outstanding shares of stock of the Company owned by such person, a Change in Control shall then occur.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any one person or group is considered to own 30% or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or group is not considered to cause a change in the effective control of the Company or a change in ownership of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.9(a) of this Plan).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires ownership of more than 30% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company as a result of the acquisition by the Company of stock of the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the percentage of shares beneficially owned by such person; provided, that if a Change in Control would occur as a result of such an acquisition by the Company (if not for the operation of this sentence), and after the Company's acquisition such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional stock of the Company that increases the percentage of outstanding shares of stock of the Company owned by such person, a Change in Control shall then occur.

		
	(ii)
	The date that a majority of the Company’s board of directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election was not endorsed by a majority of the members of the board prior to the date of such appointment or election.

The gross fair market value of assets shall be determined without regard to liabilities associated with such assets.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transfer of assets shall not result in a change in ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets if such transfer is to: (i) a shareholder of the Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to its stock, (ii) 

3
607380684.7

an entity 50% or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, (iii) a person or group (within the meaning of the Regulations under Section 409A of the Code) that owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of the stock of the Company, or (iv) an entity, at least 50% of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly by a person or group described in Section 1.9(c)(iii) of this Plan.
Notwithstanding Sections 1.9(a), 1.9(b)(i) and 1.9(c) above, the consummation of a merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar form of corporate reorganization of the Company or any Subsidiary that requires the approval of the Company's stockholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in connection with the transaction or otherwise (a "Business Combination"), shall not be deemed a Change in Control if, immediately following such Business Combination: (a) more than 50% of the total voting power of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (the "Surviving Corporation") or, if applicable, the ultimate parent corporation which directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of 100% of the voting securities eligible to elect directors of the Surviving Corporation (the "Parent Corporation"), is represented by securities of the Company eligible to vote for the election of the Board (the “Company Voting Securities") that were outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination (or, if applicable, shares into which such Company Voting Securities were converted pursuant to such Business Combination), and such voting power among the holders thereof is in substantially the same proportion as the voting power of such Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof immediately prior to the Business Combination, (b) no person (other than any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Surviving Corporation or the Parent Corporation) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 20% or more of the total voting power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to elect directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation), and (c) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation), following the Business Combination, were members of the Company's Board at the time of the Board's approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, an acquisition of stock of the Company described in Section 1.9(a) or 1.9(b)(i) above shall not be deemed to be a Change in Control by virtue of any of the following situations:  (a) an acquisition by the Company or any Subsidiary; (b) an acquisition by any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary; (c) an acquisition by any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (d) the acquisition of stock of the Company from the Company.

	a single lump sum payment in cash; or

		
	(b)
	monthly installments over 5, 10 or 15 years.

		
	8.3.
	Time of Payment.

	8.4.
	Survivor Benefits Paid From Grandfathered Amounts.  To the extent that the Company pays to a Participant's Beneficiary a Survivor Benefit consisting of Grandfathered Amounts, the time and form of payment of such Grandfathered Amounts shall be governed by the Participant's election as in effect on December 31, 2006 and the terms of the Plan as in effect on December 31, 2004; provided, however, that after December 31, 2006 a Participant may make a one-time election to have all Grandfathered Amounts paid in a lump sum as of the first day of the second month after the Participant's death (regardless of whether the Participant dies before or after the date that payment of Grandfathered Amounts would otherwise commence under the Plan).  In accordance with the terms of the Plan as in effect on December 31, 2004, any election to change the form of payment of Survivor Benefits from Grandfathered Amounts must be filed at least thirteen (13) months prior to the date that payment of Survivor Benefits would otherwise commence or be made, unless the Participant's Beneficiary agrees to take a ten percent (10%) reduction in the value of the Grandfathered Amounts.

		
	8.5.
	Small Benefit Payments.    

		
	(a)
	Benefits Payable Prior to January 1, 2008.

	Benefits Payable After December 31, 2007.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective December 31, 2007 with respect to a Survivor Benefit under the Plan that would otherwise be paid in installments after December 31, 2007, if the aggregate balances of the Participant's accounts under the Plan, the Executive Deferral Plan and any other nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement that is aggregated with any portion of the Plan or the Executive Deferral Plan under Section 1.409A-1(c) of the Regulations as of the date that payment of the Survivor Benefit would otherwise commence is less than or equal to the applicable dollar amount in effect on such date under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code, the Company shall pay the Survivor Benefit under the Plan in a single lump sum.  

ARTICLE 8DISABILITY BENEFITS
If a Participant suffers a Disability, the Company shall pay the Retirement Benefit described in Article 6 to the Participant as if the date of the Participant's Disability were the Participant's Normal Retirement Date; provided, however, that the provisions of Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5 regarding payment to a Specified Employee and the 5-year delay of payments following certain elections shall be disregarded for purposes of the payment of the Disability Benefit pursuant to this Article 9.
ARTICLE 9CHANGE IN CONTROL
If a Change in Control occurs, the Participant shall receive a lump sum payment of the balance of the vested Account thirty (30) days after the Change in Control.  Such balance shall be determined as of the date of the Change in Control, without regard to gains or losses attributable to the Account thereafter.  
ARTICLE 10WITHDRAWALS
Upon a finding by the Administrator that the Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Emergency, the Administrator may permit the Participant to cease any on-going deferrals for the Plan Year.  Furthermore, the Participant may elect to receive a distribution from his or her Account equal to the amount reasonably necessary to alleviate such Unforeseeable Emergency, including the amount reasonably determined to be sufficient to satisfy any applicable income taxes and penalties anticipated to result from the distribution. In any case, no distribution may be made to a Participant pursuant to this Article 11 to the extent that the Unforeseeable Emergency is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation from insurance or otherwise, by liquidation of the Participant's assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not cause severe financial hardship), or by cessation of deferrals under the Plan, the Executive Deferral Plan and any other nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement that is aggregated with any portion of the Plan or the Executive Deferral Plan under Section 1.409A-1(c) of the Regulations.  If a distribution is made to a Participant on account of Unforeseeable Emergency, the Participant may not make further Annual Deferrals under the Plan until one entire Plan Year following the Plan Year in which a distribution based on Unforeseeable Emergency was made has elapsed, or such longer period as may be required by the Code.   If, after December 31, 2007, a distribution is made from Grandfathered Amounts due to a "Financial Hardship" (as defined in the separate Plan applicable to Grandfathered 

17
607380684.7

Amounts), no cessation of deferrals shall be required with respect to Non-Grandfathered Amounts pursuant to this Article 11.  Distributions to a Participant in the event of an Unforeseeable Emergency pursuant to this Article 11 shall be made as follows: (a) first, from Grandfathered Amounts under the Plan, to the extent thereof; (b) second, from other amounts under the Plan, to the extent thereof; (c) third, from Grandfathered Amounts under the Executive Deferral Plan, to the extent thereof; and (d) fourth, from other amounts under the Executive Deferral Plan, to the extent thereof.
ARTICLE 11CONDITIONS RELATED TO BENEFITS
		
	12.1.
	Non-assignability.  The benefits provided under the Plan may not be alienated, assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated by or to any person or entity, at any time or in any manner whatsoever.  These benefits shall be exempt from the claims of creditors of any Participant or other claimants and from all orders, decrees, levies, garnishment or executions against any Participant to the fullest extent allowed by law.

		
	12.2.
	No Right to Company Assets.  The benefits paid under the Plan shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, and the Participants and any Beneficiaries shall be no more than unsecured general creditors of the Company with no special or prior right to any assets of the Company for payment of any obligations under this Plan.

		
	12.3.
	Protective Provisions.  Each Participant shall cooperate with the Company by furnishing any and all information requested by the Administrator, in order to facilitate the payment of benefits under this Plan, taking such physical examinations as the Administrator may deem necessary and taking such other actions as may be requested by the Administrator.  If a Participant refuses to cooperate, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Participant under the Plan.  If a Participant makes any material misstatement of information or nondisclosure of medical history, then no benefits shall be payable to the Participant or the Participant's Beneficiary or estate under the Plan beyond the sum of the Participant's Annual Deferrals.

		
	12.4.
	Withholding.  Each Participant and Beneficiary shall make appropriate arrangements with the Company for satisfaction of any federal, state or local income tax withholding requirements and Social Security or other employee tax requirements applicable to the payment of benefits under the Plan.  If no other arrangements are made, the Company may provide, at its discretion, for such withholding and tax payments as may be required.

ARTICLE 12ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN
The Administrator shall administer the Plan and shall have discretionary authority to interpret, construe and apply its provisions in accordance with its terms, provided that such authority shall be exercised consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.  The Administrator shall further establish, adopt or revise such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.  All decisions of the Administrator shall be final and binding.  The individuals serving on a Committee shall, except as prohibited by law, be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any and all liabilities, costs, and expenses (including legal fees), to the extent not covered by liability insurance arising out of any action taken by any member 

18
607380684.7

of the Committee with respect to the Plan, unless such liability arises from the individual's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
ARTICLE 13BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION
The Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any person or persons as Beneficiary (both primary and contingent) to whom payment under the Plan shall be made in the event of the Participant's death.  The Beneficiary designation shall be effective when it is submitted in writing to the Administrator during the Participant's lifetime on a form prescribed by the Administrator.
The submission of a new Beneficiary designation shall cancel all prior Beneficiary designations.  Any finalized divorce or marriage of a Participant subsequent to the date of a Beneficiary designation shall revoke such designation, unless in the case of divorce the previous Spouse was not designated as Beneficiary and unless in the case of marriage the Participant's new Spouse has previously been designated as Beneficiary.  The Spouse of a married Participant shall consent to any designation of a Beneficiary other than the Spouse, and the Spouse's consent shall be witnessed by a notary public.
If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided above, or if the Beneficiary designation is revoked by marriage, divorce, or otherwise without execution of a new designation, or if every person designated as Beneficiary predeceases the Participant or dies prior to complete distribution of the Participant's benefits, then the Administrator shall direct the distribution of such benefits to the estate of the last to die of the Participant and the Beneficiaries.
ARTICLE 14AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN
		
	15.1.
	Amendment of Plan.  

		
	(a)
	The Company may at any time amend the Plan in whole or in part, provided, however, that such amendment:  (i) shall not decrease the balance of the Participant's Account at the time of such amendment; and (ii) shall not retroactively decrease the applicable Crediting Rate of the Plan prior to the time of such amendment.  

		
	(b)
	In addition, no amendment shall permit an acceleration of time of payment of a Participant’s benefit under the Plan, other than:  (i) as necessary to comply with a certificate of divestiture, as defined in Section 1043(b)(2) of the Code; (ii) in accordance with Sections 6.5 and 8.5 with respect to small cashouts; (iii) as necessary to pay Federal Insurance Contribution (“FICA”) taxes and any resulting federal, state, local or foreign income taxes attributable to amounts deferred under the Plan, subject to the limitations of Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(vi) of the Regulations; (iv) in the event the arrangement fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to one or more Participants, and then only in such amount as is included in income of such Participant(s) as a result of such failure; (v) due to a termination of the Plan pursuant to Section 15.2 that meets the requirements of Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) of the Regulations; or (vi) as otherwise may be permitted under Section 409A of the Code.  

19

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may at any time determine to cease all future deferrals and contributions to the Plan.  In such event, Participants' Accounts shall continue to be held and administered in accordance with the terms of this Plan; provided, however that the Company shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether to continue to credit Participants' Accounts with earnings at the otherwise applicable Crediting Rates or instead to credit Participants' Accounts, as of January 1 of the year that all future deferrals and contributions to the Plan are ceased, with a reasonable rate of interest, not less than the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, in either case continuing until distribution of Participants' Accounts in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

		
	15.3.
	Company Action.  Except as provided in Section 15.4, the Company's power to amend or terminate the Plan shall be exercisable by the Company's Board of Directors or by the committee or individual authorized by the Company's Board of Directors to exercise such powers.

		
	15.4.
	Distribution on Income Inclusion Under Section 409A.  In the event the Administrator determines that amounts deferred under the Plan fail to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and must be recognized as income for federal income tax purposes, distribution of the amount required to be included in income shall be made to affected Participants to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code.

	16.7.

	17.2.
	Review Procedure.  If a Participant is determined by the Administrator not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Participant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Participant shall have the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Administrator by filing a petition for review with the Administrator within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice issued by the Administrator.  Said petition shall state the specific reasons which the Participant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits.  Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Administrator of the petition, the Administrator shall afford the Participant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his or her position to the Administrator in writing, and the Participant (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents.
