	4.2	Benefit Formula: 

 If the Participant Separates
from Service before reaching the Early Retirement Date, the Participant shall not have an Accrued Benefit. 
 For the other Qualifying
Distribution Events, the Participant’s Accrued Benefit on a Straight Life basis is a monthly amount equal to (a) X (b) X [(c) / (d)], where 
  

	 	(a)	equals the Participant’s Average Compensation, divided by 12; 

  

	 	(b)	equals 45%; 

  

	 	(c)	equals the Participant’s Years of Service as of the date the Participant becomes an Inactive Participant; and 

  

	 	(d)	equals the Participant’s projected Years of Service determined as if the Participant continued employment until the Normal Retirement Age; 

 and where [(c) / (d)] shall not exceed one. 
 If the Qualifying Distribution Event is after a Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, the benefit percentage in (b) above is replaced with the following percentage based on the Participant’s age: 
  

				
	 Age 66
	  	47	%
	 Age 67
	  	49	%
	 Age 68
	  	51	%

	 Age 73
	  	61	%
	 Age 74
	  	63	%
	 Age 75 or older
	  	65	%

 The benefit is further increased with interest from the first day of the month following the
Normal Retirement Date to the actual date of determination based on the interest rate in the Present Value definition. 
 If the date
of a Participant’s Qualifying Distribution Event is prior to the attainment of age sixty-two (62) and ten (10) years of service, or age fifty-five (55) and twenty-five (25) years of service, the Accrued Benefit shall be
reduced by one half of one percent (1/2%) per month for each month between the Participant’s event date and the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date. For the purpose of this factor, a year of service shall mean the total number of
full years in which a Participant is employed by an Employer. A year of employment shall be a 365 day period (or 366 day period in the case of a leap year) that begins on the later of December 31, 2006 or the Participant’s date of hire,

each year or for each Participant. 
 If the Participant is covered by an employment agreement (“Employment Agreement”) and
the Qualifying Distribution Event is the Participant’s death or becoming Disabled, then the Participant’s Accrued Benefit is modified by the following: 
 If the Accrued Benefit under this Plan is greater than the benefit under the Employment Agreement on an Actuarial Equivalent basis, the Participant’s Accrued Benefit under this Plan is reduced by Actuarial

 EXHIBIT A 
 TO 
 KFORCE INC. SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN 
 (As Amended and Restated December 31, 2006) 
 The
purpose of this Exhibit A to the Kforce Inc. Supplement Executive Retirement Plan (“Plan”) is to set forth terms and conditions that revise, supplement or are in addition to the terms and conditions of the Principal Executive Nonqualified
Defined Benefit Plan (“Basic Plan Document”) and Adoption Agreement adopted by Kforce Inc. (the “Company”) to implement the Plan. The terms of this Exhibit A shall supercede any provision of the Basic Plan Document or Adoption
Agreement to the contrary. 
  

	1.	The Company and a Participant may enter into an agreement (“Plan Agreement”) with respect to such Participant’s participation in the Plan. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Basic Plan Document or Adoption Agreement to the contrary, each Plan Agreement executed by a Participant shall provide for the entire benefit to which such Participant is entitled under the Plan; should there be more than one Plan
Agreement, the Plan Agreement bearing the latest date of acceptance by the Company shall supercede all previous Plan Agreements in their entirety and shall govern such entitlement. The terms of any Plan Agreement may be different for any
Participant, and any Plan Agreement may provide additional benefits not set forth in the Plan or limit the benefits otherwise provided under the Plan; provided, however, that any such additional benefits or benefit limitations must be agreed upon by
both the Company and Participant. 

  

	2.	The following Section 2:28 shall be substituted for Section 2.28 of the Basic Plan Document: 

 Section 2.28: “Present Value” means the current value of a benefit that is payable in a specified form on a specified date. The
basis for the calculation shall be: (a) the RP-2000 Mortality Table for Healthy Annuitants (sex distinct) and (b) an annual rate equal to the Moody’s Aa Long Term Corporate Bond Yield at month end close for December prior to the date
for which the rate is to be used rounded to the nearest .25% or such other rate deemed appropriate by the Company in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The actuarial assumptions may be adjusted from time to time as
selected by the Company and such assumptions shall be applied consistently to all Participants. 
  

	3.	Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7 of the Basic Plan Document, the following provisions shall govern administration of the Plan following a Change in Control:

 Within one hundred and twenty (120) days following a Change in Control, the individuals who comprised the Committee
immediately prior to the Change in Control (whether or not such individuals are members of the Committee following the Change in Control) may, by written consent of the majority of such individuals, appoint an independent third party administrator
(the “Administrator”) to perform any or all of the Committee’s duties described in Sections 7 and 9 of the Plan, including, without limitation, the power to determine any questions arising in connection with the administration or
interpretation of the Plan, and the power to make benefit entitlement determinations. Upon and after the effective date of such appointment, (i) the Company must pay all reasonable administrative expenses and fees of the Administrator, and
(ii) the Administrator may only be terminated with the written consent of the majority of Participants with benefits under the Plan as of the date of such proposed termination. 
  

	4.	By adding the following to the end of Section 14.1 of the Basic Plan Document: 

 If such claim relates to the contents of a notice received by the claimant, the claim must be made within sixty (60) days after such notice was received by the claimant. All other claims must be made within 180
days of the date on which the event that caused the claim to arise occurred. 
  

	5.	By adding the following new Section 14.6 to the Basic Plan Document: 

 14.6 Arbitration. If a claimant has complied with the foregoing provisions of this Section 14, the claimant shall have the right to submit the controversy to final and binding arbitration pursuant to the
then most applicable Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) provided, however, that unless the parties otherwise agree, the arbitration shall be before a single arbitrator selected either by mutual agreement or, failing
agreement, from a list of seven arbitrators provided by AAA. In the event the 

  

 14 

 
parties are unable to agree upon such an arbitrator from such list of seven, each party shall strike one name in turn with the first to strike being chosen
by lot. When only one name remains, that person shall be the parties’ arbitrator. The parties expressly waive their rights, if any, to have such matters heard by a jury or a judge, whether in state or federal court. The cost of the arbitration,
including, but not limited to, any reasonable legal fees or other expenses incident thereto incurred in connection with such arbitration shall be borne by the party that is determined by the arbitrator(s) not to have prevailed with respect to the
applicable claim(s). In the arbitration the Committee’s decision on appeal shall not be entitled to a presumption of correctness; rather, the dispute shall be decided de novo. 
  

	6.	Section 10.2 of the Basic Plan Document shall be deleted in its entirety. For the avoidance of doubt, the Plan shall not recognize any domestic relations order purporting to
assign a Participant’s benefits to an alternate payee, except to the extent specifically required by law. 

  

	7.	Section 15.1 of the Basic Plan Document shall be deleted in its entirety. For the avoidance of doubt, the Employer may not reduce the amount of any payment otherwise payable to
or on behalf of a Participant under the Plan by the amount of any loan, cash advance, extension of credit or other obligation of the Participant to the Employer, except as provided under Section 15.10 of the Basic Plan Document with respect to
tax withholding.

member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees. The Committee’s determination of eligibility for any given Plan Year does not guarantee eligibility in subsequent Plan Years. In the event any Employee is no longer

 Section 4. Election to Defer 
  

	4.1	 Election to Participate. Any Eligible Employee may enroll in the Plan effective as of the first day of a Plan Year, by filing a completed and fully executed
Election Form with the Committee during enrollment periods established by the Committee, but in no event later than the last day of the immediately preceding Plan Year. On such Election Form 

  

 6 

	 	 
for each Plan Year, the Eligible Employee shall (i) irrevocably elect the amount of Compensation for such Plan Year to be deferred, and
(ii) irrevocably elect the time and form of distribution in which the Deferral Sub-Account for such Plan Year shall be paid in accordance with Section 6. A Participant’s deferral election and election as to time and form of

Plan Years, and 90 percent of any Incentive Awards earned and accrued for such Plan Years (less such amounts necessary to cover any applicable tax withholding or payroll deductions). The minimum deferral of Base Salary or Incentive Award for any
Plan Year shall be 1%.

Section 4.1(a)) is less than the applicable compensation limit under Code section 401(a)(17) shall be entitled to have a Matching Contribution made to such Participant’s Deferral Account, up to the matching limit for matching contributions
under the Savings Plan for such Plan Year. The Matching Contribution for each Plan Year will be equal to the lesser of (i) such matching limit under the Savings Plan, or (ii) the product of (1) the amount of Compensation the
Participant elects to defer under the Plan, and (2) the matching rate as in effect under the Savings Plan. Matching Contributions shall be made on the last day of the Plan Year provided the Participant is an Employee on such date, and shall be
invested as part of the Participant’s Deferral Account in accordance with Section 5.1 of the Plan in the same proportions and in the same Investment Indexes as the Participant’s Compensation reduction amount. 

 

 7 

	 	d.	Additional Pension Contribution. Each Participant shall be entitled to receive an additional Pension Contribution to such Participant’s Deferral Account on the last day
of the Plan Year provided the Participant is an Employee on such date if his or her pension benefits are reduced under the Pension Plan as a result of Compensation deferral under this Plan. The additional Pension Contribution shall be the lump sum
amount equal to the excess of (1) the benefit that the Participant would be entitled to under the Pension Plan if his or her deferral of Compensation under the Plan had not reduced the benefits otherwise payable under the Pension Plan, over
(2) the actual benefit to which the Participant is entitled under the Pension Plan, plus interest on such contributions credited at the rate provided under the Pension Plan as if the Pension Contribution had been directly credited under the
Pension Plan. 

  

	 	e.	A Matching Contribution and Pension Contribution shall be made on the last day of the Plan Year for any Participant who is Displaced or ceases to be an Employee on account of
Retirement during the Plan Year and who would otherwise be eligible for such contributions. 

  

	 	f.	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Participants may not make any voluntary deferrals of Compensation under the Plan after December 31, 2008 until determined
otherwise by the Committee. 

 Section 5. Deferral Accounts 
  

	5.1	Deferral Accounts. The Committee shall establish and maintain a separate Deferral Account for each Participant. The amount by which a Participant’s Compensation is
reduced pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be credited by the Company to the Participant’s Deferral Account as of the date the amount of the compensation that is deferred otherwise would have been payable. The value of each Participant’s
Deferral Account shall be adjusted each day the financial markets in the United States are open as follows: 

  

 8 

	 	a.	Pursuant to the procedures established by the Committee, a Participant shall elect to have his Deferral Sub-Account for a given Plan Year allocated among Deferral Sub-Accounts to
reflect the Participant’s selection of the Investment Indexes available under the Plan at that time, in 1 percent increments, up to 100 percent of the amount credited to such Deferral Sub-Account. 

  

	 	b.	Such Deferral Sub-Account shall be credited or debited to reflect gains or losses (including dividends and capital gains and losses) as if the Deferral Sub-Account had been invested
in an equivalent number of shares or units of the funds or investments referenced by the Investment Indexes available under the Plan from time to time, pursuant to the allocation elections made by the Participant from time to time.

  

	 	c.	Pursuant to the procedures established by the Committee, a Participant may change the election with respect to the allocation of the Participant’s Deferral Sub-Accounts among
the Investment Indexes available under the Plan from time to time. Unless the Participant indicates otherwise, any such reallocation election shall apply to all such Participant’s Deferral Sub-Accounts. 

  

	5.2	Charge Against Accounts. There shall be charged against each Participant’s Deferral Account any payments made to the Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with
Section 6. In addition, the Committee may allocate a portion of any administrative expenses of the Plan to each Participant’s Deferral Account. 

  

	5.3	Statement of Accounts. The Committee shall submit to each participant, within a reasonable period of time after the close of each calendar quarter of a Plan Year, a statement
of the balance in each such Participant’s Deferral Account as of the last Valuation Date of such quarter, in such form as the Committee deems appropriate. 

  

	5.4	 Acquired Deferral Accounts. In addition to the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company may authorize the transfer to a Participant’s
Deferral Account, such Participant’s deferred balances held under a deferral plan maintained by any organization acquired by the Company or an Affiliated Company. Such balances transferred will 

  

 9 

	 	 
retain the deferral period, vesting provisions and distribution provisions as set forth in the original deferral plan acquired by the Company or an
Affiliated Company, and such provisions shall be incorporated herein. 

 Section 6. Benefits 
  

	6.1	Retirement Benefit. Upon Retirement of a Participant, the Committee shall direct the Participant’s Employer to pay a Retirement Benefit based on the value of the
Participant’s Deferral Account as of the Retirement Valuation Date (as set forth below). Such Retirement Benefit shall be paid in the manner originally elected by the Participant on each Plan Year’s Election Form in the form of either a
lump sum, or annual installments over five (5) or ten (10) years. 

  

	 	a.	If a Participant’s Deferral Sub-Account is payable in a lump sum, the Participant shall receive payment of such Retirement Benefit as soon as reasonably possible after the
Retirement Valuation Date, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year of the Retirement Valuation Date or the 15th day of the third calendar month following the Retirement Valuation Date, if later. 

  

	 	b.	If a Participant’s Deferral Sub-Account is payable in installments, the amount to be paid with each installment shall be the value of such Deferral Sub-Account as of the date
of the installment Valuation Date multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one (1) and the denominator of which is the number of installment payments remaining. For purposes of this Section, the installment Valuation Date for the
first installment payment shall be the Retirement Valuation Date, and the installment Valuation Date for subsequent installment payments shall be the first Valuation Date of each Plan Year thereafter, provided, however, that in no event shall more
than one installment payment be made to a Participant in any one Plan Year. A Participant shall receive each installment payment as soon are reasonably possible after the applicable installment Valuation Date, but in no event later than the end of
the calendar year of the applicable Valuation Date or the 15th day of the third calendar month following the applicable Valuation Date, if later. 

  

 10 

	 	c.	Following receipt of a Participant’s complete Retirement Benefit, such Participant shall be entitled to no further benefits under the Plan. 

  

	6.2	Disability. If a Participant suffers a Disability, the value of each of the Participant’s Deferral Sub-Accounts will continue to be adjusted in accordance with
Section 5.1(b). If the Disability leave is at least six months, the Participant shall for purposes of the Plan be deemed on the first day following such six-month period to have had a Termination of Employment, and the Participant’s
Deferral Account will be distributed as a Retirement Benefit or Termination Benefit, as applicable. 

  

	6.3	Termination Benefit. If a Participant has a Termination of Employment for a reason other than a Retirement (as described in Section 6.1), including a Termination of
Employment due to Disability, the Committee shall direct the Participant’s Employer to pay a Termination Benefit based on the value of the Participant’s Deferral Account as of the Termination Valuation Date (as set forth below). Such
Termination Benefit shall be paid in the manner elected by the Participant on each Plan Year’s Election Form in the form of either a lump sum payment or annual installments over five (5) or ten (10) years. 

  

	 	a.	If a Participant’s Deferral Sub-Account is payable in a lump sum, the Participant shall receive payment of such Termination Benefit as soon as reasonably possible after the
Termination Valuation Date, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year of the Termination Valuation Date or the 15th day of the third calendar month following the Termination Valuation Date, if later. 

  

	 	b.	 If a Participant’s Deferral Sub-Account is payable in installments, the amount to be paid with each installment shall be the value of such Deferral Sub-Account
as of the date of the installment Valuation Date multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one (1) and the denominator of which is the number of installment payments remaining. For the purposes of this Section, the installment
Valuation Date for the first installment payment shall be the Termination Valuation Date, and the installment Valuation Date for subsequent installment payments shall be the first Valuation Date of each Plan Year thereafter; provided, however, that
in no event shall more than one installment payment be made to a 

  

 11 

	 	 
Participant in any one Plan Year. A Participant shall receive each installment payment as soon are reasonably possible after the applicable installment
Valuation Date, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year of the applicable Valuation Date or the 15th day of the third calendar month following the applicable Valuation Date, if later. 

  

	 	c.	Following receipt of a Participant’s complete Termination Benefit, such Participant shall be entitled to no further benefits under the Plan. 

  

	6.4	Survivor Benefits. 

  

	 	a.	Pre-Retirement. If a Participant dies before otherwise becoming eligible to receive Retirement Benefits, a Survivor Benefit will be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary in a
lump sum equal to such Participant’s Deferral Account as of the Death Valuation Date. A Beneficiary shall receive the Survivor Benefit as soon as possible after the Death Valuation Date, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year
of the Death Valuation Date or the 15th day of the third calendar month following the Death Valuation Date, if later. If a Participant dies after becoming eligible to receive Retirement Benefits but before such benefits have been paid in full, the
Retirement Benefits the deceased Participant would have otherwise received shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary as a Survivor Benefit pursuant to the Participant’s prior elections. 

  

	 	b.	Post-Retirement. If a Participant dies after such Retirement Benefits have commenced, the Retirement Benefits the deceased Participant would have otherwise received shall be paid to
the Participant’s Beneficiary as a Survivor Benefit pursuant to the Participant’s prior elections. 

  

	 	c.	Following receipt of a Participant’s complete Survivor Benefit, a Beneficiary shall be entitled to no further benefits under the Plan. 

  

 12 

	6.5	Withdrawal on Account of Unforeseeable Emergency. 

  

	 	a.	While employed by the Company or an Affiliated Company, a Participant or Beneficiary may, in the event of an unforeseeable emergency (as defined below) request a withdrawal from his
or her Deferral Account by filing a withdrawal request at a time and in a manner determined by the Committee. Any such withdrawal shall not be for a greater amount than the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency
(including applicable income taxes and penalties reasonably expected to result from the withdrawal), and shall be subject to approval by the Committee. The Committee shall consider any requests for payment under this provision on a uniform and
nondiscriminatory basis and in accordance with the standards of interpretation described in Code section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The circumstances that will constitute an unforeseeable emergency will depend upon the facts of
each case, but, in any case, no withdrawal may be made to the extent that such hardship is or may be relieved (i) through reimbursement or compensation by available insurance or otherwise, (ii) by liquidation of the Participant’s
assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship, or (iii) by the additional compensation that will be available to the Participant as a result of the suspension of Participant deferrals
pursuant to subsection (c) below. The withdrawal shall be paid in the form of a single lump payment five (5) days following the Committee’s approval of the withdrawal, or at such later time as permitted under Code section 409A and the
Treasury Regulations thereunder. 

  

	 	b.	For purposes of this provision, “unforeseeable emergency” shall mean (i) a severe financial hardship to the Participant resulting from an illness or accident of the
Participant, the Participant’s spouse, the Participant’s Beneficiary or the Participant’s dependent (as defined in Code section 152, without regard to Code section 152(b)(1), (b)(2) or (d)(1)(B)); (ii) loss of the
Participant’s property due to casualty; or (iii) other similar or extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. 

  

 13 

	 	c.	In the event a Participant receives a withdrawal pursuant to this provision, his or her Compensation deferrals under the Plan will be automatically suspended. The Participant may
apply to the Committee to resume Compensation deferrals with respect to Plan Years beginning on or after the January 1 following the date of suspension, provided, that the Committee shall approve such resumption only if the Committee determines
that the Participant is no longer incurring the unforeseeable emergency for which the withdrawal was approved. Any application to resume Compensation deferrals must be made in accordance with the deferral election procedures set forth in
Section 4. 

 The amount of benefits otherwise payable under the Plan shall thereafter be adjusted to reflect the
reduction of a Deferral Account due to the early payment of the Financial Hardship Distribution. 
  

	6.6	Scheduled Distributions. 

  

	 	a.	In General. A Participant may, when filing an Election Form with respect to a given Plan Year, elect to receive a distribution while employed of all or a portion of the
Participant’s Deferral Sub-Account for such Plan Year at a specified time or times in the future. The election of such a Scheduled Distribution shall be irrevocable and shall apply only to prospective deferrals for that Plan Year.

  

	 	b.	Timing and Forms of Distribution. The first year specified for a Scheduled Distribution must be at least five (5) Plan Years after the Plan Year in which commencement of
deferrals covered by the Election Form in which a Scheduled Distribution is elected. A Participant will receive such Scheduled Distribution in either a lump sum or in annual installments over five (5) of ten (10) years as specified on the
Election Form. 

  

	 	c.	Election Void Upon Death and Termination of Employment. In the event a Participant has elected to receive any Scheduled Distributions and, before said distributions the Participant
dies or has a Termination of Employment, the election with respect to such Scheduled Distributions shall be voided and such Participant’s Deferral Account shall be paid as a Termination Benefit. 

  

 14 

	6.7	Small Benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the total amount owed to a Participant or a Beneficiary after the Participant ceases to be an
Employee is no greater than $15,500 (or such greater amount as is permitted under Code section 409A and the Regulations thereunder), the Committee shall distribute such amount in a single lump sum. 

  

	6.8	Special Election before December 31, 2008. Prior to December 31, 2008 (or such earlier time as the Committee may designate), a Participant who has a Deferral
Account may make a new distribution election with respect to amounts credited to the Participant’s Deferral Account pursuant to Section 4 hereof on or after January 1, 2005 (“Post-2004 Deferrals”) indicating a new time and
form of distribution of his Post-2004 Deferrals in accordance with the procedures established by the Committee, provided that payment may not commence pursuant to such election prior to July 2009. The Participant may choose from a lump sum payment
or annual installments over five (5) or ten (10) years with respect to the Participant’s Post-2004 Deferrals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, a Participant shall not be permitted in calendar year 2008 to (a) change
payment elections in a manner that will defer distribution of amounts that the Participant otherwise would have received in 2008 or (b) accelerate payments that would otherwise be made at a later date into 2008. 

  

	6.9	Withholding; Payroll Taxes. To the extent required by the law in effect at the time payments are made, a Participant’s Employer shall withhold from payments made
hereunder the taxes required to be withheld by the federal or any state or local government. As to any payroll tax that is due from a Participant for Compensation deferred under this Plan, the Employer shall collect such tax from funds paid to such
Participant with respect to other compensation not deferred under the Plan unless said other compensation is insufficient to pay such payroll taxes whereupon the shortfall shall serve to reduce the elected deferral amount. 

 

 15 

	6.10	No Acceleration of Payment. No Participant shall be permitted, and the Committee shall not have any discretion, to accelerate the timing or schedule of any benefit payment
under this Plan, except as specifically provided herein or as may be permitted pursuant Code section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. 

  

	6.11	Payment Delay for Key Employees. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, no distribution which becomes due and payable by reason of a Participant’s
“separation from service” under Code section 409A shall be made to the Participant prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of the Participant’s “separation
from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations issued under Code section 409A) or (ii) the date of the Participant’s death, if the Participant is deemed at the time of such separation from service to be a “key
employee” within the meaning of that term under Code section 416(i) and such delayed commencement is otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code section 409A(a)(2). Upon the expiration of the
applicable Code section 409A(a)(2) deferral period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Section 6.11 (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such deferral) shall be paid to the
Participant (or the Participant’s Beneficiary in the event of the Participant’s death) in a lump sum, and any remaining payments due under the Plan shall be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. During
such deferral period, the Participant’s Deferral Account under the Plan shall continue to be subject to the investment return provisions of Section 5.1. 

 Section 7. Beneficiary Designation 
  

	7.1	Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any person or persons as Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to whom payment under this
Plan shall be made in the event of Participant’s death prior to complete distribution to Participant of the Benefits due under the Plan. Each Beneficiary designation shall become effective only when filed in writing with the Committee during
the Participant’s lifetime on a form prescribed by the Committee. 

  

 16 

 The filing of a new Beneficiary designation form will cancel all Beneficiary designations previously
filed. 
 Section 8. Administration of the Plan 
  

	8.1	Administration. The Plan shall be administered by a committee (the “Committee”) of two (2) or more members as designated from time to time by the MRCC of the
Board. The Committee shall have full and complete authority to (i) administer the Plan; (ii) select the eligible employees who are to participate in the Plan; (iii) appoint additional members of the Committee; and (iv) delegate
authority to perform particular functions with respect to the Plan, including, without limitation, functions involving the exercise of discretion, to any agent (including any officer or employee of the Company) or to any subcommittee or member of
the Committee, provided that such delegation shall be subject to revocation at any time at the discretion of the Committee. 

  

	8.2	Authority. The interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan and the adoption of rules and regulations for plan administration shall be made by the Committee.
Decisions of the Committee shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Plan, including (without limitation) all decisions relating to an individual’s eligibility for participation in the Plan, his or her entitlement to
benefits hereunder and the amount of any such benefit entitlement. Prior to paying a benefit under the Plan, the Committee may require the Participant, former Participant or Beneficiary to provide such information or material as the Committee, in
its sole discretion, shall deem necessary to make any determination it may be required to make under the Plan. The Committee may withhold payment of a benefit under the Plan until it receives all such information and material and is reasonably
satisfied of its correctness and genuineness. 

  

	8.3	 Hold Harmless. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no member of the Committee shall be personally liable by reason of any contract or other instrument
executed by such member or on such member’s behalf in such member’s capacity as a member of the Committee nor for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, directly from its own assets
(including the proceeds of any insurance policy the premiums of which are paid from the Company’s 

  

 17 

	 	 
own assets), each member of the Committee and each other officer, employee, or director of the Company or an Affiliated Company to whom any duty or power
relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan against any cost or expense (including counsel fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the approval of the Company) arising out of any act or omission to
act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person’s own fraud or bad faith. 

  

	8.4	Rules of Administration. The Committee shall adopt such rules for administration of the Plan as it considers desirable, provided they do not conflict with the Plan, and may
construe the Plan, correct defects, make factual decisions and determinations, supply omissions and reconcile inconsistencies to the extent necessary to effectuate the Plan and, except as provided in Section 8.5, such action (including factual
decisions and determinations) shall be binding and conclusive. The determinations of the Committee shall be subject to review only for abuse of discretion. 

  

	8.5	Claims Procedures. 

  

	 	a.	Benefits under this Plan will be paid only if the Committee decides in its discretion that the applicant is entitled to them. All claims for benefits under the Plan shall be
submitted to the Committee, which shall have the initial responsibility for determining the eligibility of any Participant or beneficiary for benefits. Applications for benefits shall be submitted within two years of the later of (i) the date
on which payment of benefits under the Plan was made, or (ii) the date on which the action complained or grieved of occurred. The Committee may adopt forms for the submission of claim for benefits in which case all claims for benefits shall be
filed on such forms. The term “Committee” as used in this Section shall refer to any committee or organization, if any, that has been delegated the authority described herein by the Committee. 

  

	 	b.	Any claims for benefits shall be made in writing and shall set forth the facts which such Participant or beneficiary believes to be sufficient to entitle him to the benefit claimed.
Each such claim must be supported by such information and data as the Committee deems relevant and appropriate. Evidence of age, marital status (and, in the appropriate instances, health, death or Disability), and location of residence shall be
required of all claims for benefits. 

  

 18 

	 	c.	If a claim for benefits is denied in whole or in part, the Committee shall give the claimant written notice of the decision within ninety (90) days of the date the claim was
submitted. Such written notice shall set forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant (1) the specific reason or reasons for the denial; (2) specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based;
(3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim, along with an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and (4) appropriate information about the steps to be
taken if the claimant wishes to submit the claim for review of the denial. 

  

	 	d.	The ninety-day period for review of a claim for benefits may be extended for an additional ninety (90) days by a written notice to the claimant setting forth the reason for the
extension, which notice shall be furnished to the claimant before the end of the original ninety (90) day period. 

  

	 	e.	If a claim for benefits is denied in whole or in part, the claimant or his duly authorized representative, at the claimant’s sole expense, may appeal the denial to the
Committee within sixty (60) days of receipt of the denial. In pursuing his appeal, the claimant or his duly authorized representative: 

  

	 	(i)	may request in writing that the Committee review the denial; 

  

	 	(ii)	may review pertinent documents; and 

  

	 	(iii)	may submit issues and comments in writing. 

  

	 	f.	 The decision on review shall be made within sixty (60) days of receipt of the request for review, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for
processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later than one-hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request for review. If such an extension of time is required, written notice of the extension
shall be 

  

 19 

	 	 
furnished to the claimant before the end of the original sixty-day period. The decision on review shall be made in writing, shall be written in a manner
calculated to be understood by the claimant, and in the event of an adverse decision on review shall give the specific reason or reasons for the denial, shall include specific references to the provision of the plan on which any claim denial is
based, and shall inform the claimant that access will be afforded to all documents pertinent to the claim for benefits. No action at law or in equity to recover benefits under the Plan shall be commenced later than one year from the date a decision
on review is furnished to the claimant. 

  

	 	g.	All power and authority granted to the Committee as a Plan Administrator for purposes of this provision and all purposes under the Plan may be delegated by the Committee to any
person, committee, or entity pursuant to a specific or general delegation. 

 Section 9. Nature of Company’s
Obligation 
  

	9.1	No Trust. The Company’s obligation under this Plan shall be an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay. The Company shall not be obligated under any circumstances to fund
its financial obligations under this Plan prior to the date any benefits become payable pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and neither the Company, members of the Board or Committee, nor any other person shall be deemed to be a trustee of any
amounts to be paid under the Plan; provided, however, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) establish a grantor trust, the income of which Code sections 671 through 679, to provide for the accumulation of funds to satisfy
all or a portion of its financial liabilities with respect to this Plan, (ii) purchase life insurance policies on the life of a Participant, in which case the Participant shall cooperate with the Company in complying with any underwriting
requirements with respect to such a policy, or (iii) both. 

  

	9.2	 Nature of Participant’s Rights and Interests. Any assets which the Company may choose to acquire to help cover its financial liabilities, including, but
not limited to any assets referred to in Section 9.1, are and will remain general assets of the Company subject to the claims of its general creditors. The Company does not give, and this Plan 

  

 20 

	 	 
does not give, any ownership interest in any assets of the Company to a Participant or Beneficiary. All rights of ownership in any assets are and remain in
the Company, and the rights of each Participant, any Beneficiary, or any person claiming through a Participant shall be solely those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. Any liability of the Company to any Participant, Beneficiary, or
any person claiming through a Participant shall be based solely upon the contractual obligations created by the Plan. 

 Section 10. Miscellaneous 
  

	10.1	Alienation of Benefits; Domestic Relations Orders. 

  

	 	a.	No person entitled to benefits under the Plan shall have any right to transfer, assign, alienate, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber his or her interest in such benefits
prior to actual receipt of those benefits. Except for the offset rights provided under Section 10.4, the benefits payable under the Plan shall not, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts,
judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person and shall not, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be transferable by operation of law in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Participant or any
other person. 

  

	 	b.	 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payments otherwise due the Participant hereunder may instead be assigned or distributed to his or her spouse or former spouse
pursuant to the terms of any domestic relations order within the meaning of Code section 414(p)(1)(B) which is issued with respect to those subaccounts, and the Participant shall cease to have any right, interest or entitlement to the portion of any
payment or subaccount assigned or distributed to his or her spouse or former spouse in accordance with the terms of such order. The portion of the payment or subaccount assigned or distributable to the spouse or former spouse shall be paid in the
form of a single lump distribution within 15 days following the Committee’s approval of the domestic relations order or at such later time as permitted under Code section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, provided the Participant is
at the time fully vested in that portion. A domestic 

  

 21 

	 	 
relations order shall not qualify for approval under this provision, and no distribution shall be made with respect to such order, if the order requires that
payment be made at a time or in a manner other than the time and manner specified herein. Distributions made pursuant to this provision are intended to comply with the requirements of Code section 409A and Treasury Regulations thereunder, and this
provision shall be construed and administered accordingly. 

  

	10.2	No Employment Right. Neither the action of the Company or the Participating Employer in establishing or maintaining the Plan, nor any action taken under the Plan by the
Committee, nor any provision of the Plan itself shall be construed so as to grant any person the right to remain in the employ of the Company, the Participating Employer or any other Affiliated Company for any period of specific duration, and the
Participant shall at all times remain an Employee at will and may accordingly be discharged at any time, with or without cause and with or without advance notice of such discharge. 

  

	10.3	 Amendment or Termination. The MRCC or its delegate may at any time amend the provisions of the Plan to any extent and in any manner the MRCC shall deem
advisable, and such amendment shall become effective at the time of such MRCC action. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the MRCC or its delegate may amend the Plan to impose such restrictions upon the timing, filing and effectiveness
of the investment procedures and investment alternatives available under Section 5 and the distribution provisions of Section 6 which the MRCC or its delegate deems appropriate or advisable in order to avoid the current income taxation of
the balances credited to the outstanding Deferral Accounts under the Plan or any other adverse tax consequences which might otherwise occur as a result of changes to the tax laws and regulations governing incentive and deferred compensation
arrangements such as the Plan. The MRCC or its delegate may also at any time terminate the Plan in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of Code section 409A regarding plan terminations. Except for such modifications, limitations or
restrictions as may otherwise be required to avoid current income taxation or other adverse tax consequences to Participants as a result of changes to the tax laws and regulations applicable to the Plan, no such plan amendment or plan termination,
whether authorized by the MRCC or its delegate, shall adversely affect the benefits of 

  

 22 

	 	 
Participants accrued to date under the Plan or otherwise reduce the then outstanding balances credited to their Deferral Accounts or otherwise adversely
affect the vesting schedules or distribution provisions in effect for those Deferral Accounts, and the balances credited to those Deferral Accounts prior to the date of any such plan amendment or termination shall, subject to the foregoing
exception, continue to become due and payable in accordance with the vesting and distribution provisions as in effect immediately prior to such amendment or termination. The terms of an employment agreement or other individual agreement with a
Participant (a “Participant Agreement”) may modify the terms of the Plan with respect to that Participant, provided that the Participant Agreement was approved by the MRCC or its delegate. The manner and extent to which a Participant
Agreement modifies the terms of this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. 

  

	10.4	Offset. Should the Participating Employer or any other Affiliated Company have a right of offset against any outstanding debt or other monetary obligation owed to the
Company by the Participant, then the Participating Employer shall be authorized to offset the amount of that debt or obligation (whether or not then due and payable) against the amount of benefits which otherwise remain distributable to the
Participant under the Plan after the Participating Employer’s collection of all applicable withholding taxes on that distribution, to the maximum extent permissible by law and to the extent permitted under Code section 409A and applicable
regulations. 

  

	10.5	Protective Provisions. Each Participant shall cooperate with the Employer by furnishing any and all information requested by the Employer in order to facilitate the payment
of benefits hereunder, taking such physical examinations as the Employer may deem necessary and taking such other relevant action as may be requested by the Employer. If a Participant refuses to so cooperate, the Employer shall have no
further obligation to the Participant under the Plan, other than payment to such Participant of the cumulative reductions in Compensation theretofore made pursuant to this Plan. 

  

	10.6	Gender, Singular, and Plural. All pronouns and any 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. 

  

 23 

	10.7	Captions. The captions of the sections and paragraphs of this Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its
provisions. 

  

	10.8	Validity. In the event any provision of the Plan is held invalid, void, or unenforceable, the same shall not affect the validity of any other provision of this Plan.

  

	10.9	Applicable Law. The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded deferred compensation arrangement for a select group of management and other highly compensated individuals,
and all rights hereunder shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects in accordance with the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (as amended from time to time) applicable to such an arrangement and, to
the extent not pre-empted thereby, the laws of the State of North Carolina without resort to its conflict-of-laws provisions. If any provision of this Plan shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the
remaining provisions of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect. 

  

	10.10	Successors and Assigns. The obligation of each Participating Employer to make the payments required hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of that
Participating Employer, whether by merger, consolidation, acquisition or other reorganization. 

  

	10.11	Section 409A Compliance. This Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Code section 409A and regulations thereunder. Any provision of this document
that is contrary to the requirements of Code section 409A and the regulations thereunder shall be null, void and of no effect and the Committee shall interpret the document consistent with the requirements of Code section 409A, which shall govern
the administration of the Plan in the event of a conflict between Plan terms and the requirements of Code section 409A and the regulations thereunder.
