ELECTION TO DEFER

     1. Eligibility. Any Director may elect to defer receipt of all or a specified part of
his or her Fees for any Year in accordance with Section 2 of this Article. A Director’s
entitlement to defer shall cease with respect to the Year following the Year in which he or she
ceases to be a Director.

     2. Election to Defer. (i) A Director who desires to defer the payment of all or a
portion of his or her Fees for any Year must complete and deliver an Election Agreement to the
Secretary of the Company before the first day of the first Year of service for which such Fees are
payable. A Director who timely delivers an Election Agreement to the Secretary of the Company
shall be a Participant.

          (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provision of Subsection (i), any Director hereafter elected
to the Board of Directors of the Company who was not a Director on the preceding December 31 may
make an election to defer payment of Fees with respect to services performed subsequent to the
filing of the Election Agreement by delivering the Election Agreement to the Secretary of the
Company within thirty (30) days of such election.

2

 

          (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provision of Subsection (i), with respect to any
“performance-based” compensation (as determined by the Company in accordance with Section 409A of
the Code) based on services performed over a period of at least 12 months a Participant may
complete and deliver an Election Agreement to the Secretary of the Company no later than six months
before the end of such period.

          (iv) An Election Agreement, once timely delivered, shall be effective for all Fees for the
succeeding Year and, except as otherwise specified by a Director in his or her Election Agreement,
shall continue to be effective from Year to Year until terminated or modified by written notice to

order to be effective to revoke or modify an election to defer fees otherwise payable in any
particular Year, a revocation or modification must be delivered prior to the date that an initial
election would be required to be delivered under either Subsection (i) or Subsection (iii) above.

          (v) Subject to the approval of the Company, a Participant may make a subsequent election
requesting a change in the period of deferral (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3 of
this Article) and/or the form of payment (subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5).
Such subsequent election must meet all of the following requirements and shall be in writing on a
form provided by the Company:

               (a) the subsequent election shall not take effect until at least 12 months after the date on
which such amendment is made;

               (b) in the case of a subsequent election related to a payment not made on account of the
Participant’s death or an Unforeseeable Emergency, the first payment with respect to which the
amendment is made shall in all cases be deferred for a period of not less then 5 years from the
date on which such payment otherwise would have been made;

               (c) in the case of a subsequent election related to a payment that is to be made at a
specified time or pursuant to a fixed schedule, such an amendment of the election must be made at
least 12 months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment.

     3. Amount Deferred; Period of Deferral. A Participant shall designate on the Election
Agreement the percentage of his or her Fees that are to be deferred. That percentage of Fees shall
be deferred until the earliest to occur of (i) the date the Participant experiences a “separation
from service” with the Company (determined in accordance with the standards of Section 409A of the
Code); provided, however, that in the case of a Participant who is a “specified employee” (within
the meaning of Code Section 409A of the Code) as of the date of such separation from service, such
date shall be the first business day of the seventh month after the date of the Participant’s
separation from service with the Company, or (ii) the date specified by the Participant on the
Election Agreement, at which time payment of the amount deferred shall be made in accordance with
Section 5 or 6 of this Article.

     4. Account; Earnings. The percentage of Fees which a Participant elects to defer
shall be treated as if it were set aside in an Account on the date the Fees would otherwise have
been paid to the Participant. A Participant’s Account shall be credited with gains, losses and
earnings based

3

 

on hypothetical investment directions made by the Participant, in accordance with investment
deferral crediting options and procedures adopted by the Committee from time to time. A
Participant may change such hypothetical investment directions pursuant to such procedures adopted
by the Committee from time to time. The Company specifically retains the right in its sole
discretion to change the investment deferral crediting options and procedures from time to time.
By electing to defer any amount pursuant to the Plan, each Participant shall thereby acknowledge
and agree that the Company is not and shall not be required to make any investment in connection
with the Plan, nor is it required to follow the Participant’s hypothetical investment directions in
any actual investment it may make or acquire in connection with the Plan or in determining the
amount of any actual or contingent liability or obligation of the Company thereunder or relating
thereto. Any amounts credited to a Participant’s Account with respect to which a Participant does
not provide investment direction shall be credited with earnings in an amount determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion or, if an amount is not so determined, such amounts shall bear
interest at                      until further ordered by the Committee or the Board of Directors. A
Participant’s Account shall be adjusted as of each business day, except that interest, if any, for
a calendar quarter shall be credited on the first day of the following quarter.

     5. Payment of Account. The amount of a Participant’s Account shall be paid to the
Participant in a lump sum or in a number of approximately equal quarterly installments (not to
exceed 40), as designated by the Participant on the Election Agreement. The amount of the Account
remaining unpaid shall continue to be credited with gains, losses and earnings, as provided in
Section 4 of this Article. The lump sum payment or the first quarterly installment, as the case
may be, shall be made on the last day of the period of deferral as specified in Section 3 of this
Article. Each payment to the Participant shall be considered a separate payment and not one of a
series of payments.

     6. Death of Participant. In the event of the death of a Participant, the amount of
the Participant’s Account shall be paid to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated in a writing
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, in accordance with the Participant’s
Election Agreement and Section 5 of this Article. A Participant’s Beneficiary designation may be
changed at any time prior to his death by execution and delivery of a new Beneficiary designation
form. The form on file with the Corporation at the time of the Participant’s death which bears the
latest date shall govern. In the absence of a Beneficiary designation or the failure of any
Beneficiary to survive the Participant, the amount of the Participant’s Account shall be paid to
the Participant’s estate. In the event of the death of the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries after the
death of a Participant, the remaining amount of the Account shall continue to be paid to the estate
of the last Beneficiary to receive payments. Any payments to be made upon the death of the
Participant before the Participant’s Account has begun to be paid shall be paid or commence to be
paid within ninety (90) days of the date of the Participant’s death, provided that the Beneficiary
shall not have the right to designate the taxable year of payment. Any payments to be made upon
the death of the Participant after the Participant’s Account has begun to be paid shall be paid to
the Beneficiary at the same time as they would have been paid to the Participant if then living.

     7. Small Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, upon the date that payments
would commence under Section 3, the total value of the account balance(s) held by a Participant
under this Plan, and any other agreements, methods, programs, plans or other arrangements with
respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single

4

 

nonqualified deferred compensation plan with the account balances under the Plan under Treas.
Reg. § 1.409A-1(c)(2), does not exceed the applicable dollar amount under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of
the Code, the entire amount of the Account shall be paid in a lump sum in accordance with Section 5
of this Article.

     8. Acceleration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in the event of the acquisition
of substantially all of the assets of the Company or more than fifty percent (50%) of its stock by
any person, firm, corporation or group of related corporations, in a transaction or transactions
not approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, provided such transaction constitutes a
“change in the ownership or effective control of the corporation, or in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the assets of the corporation” (for purposes of Section 409A of the Code),
the entire amount of a Participant’s Account will be paid in a lump sum to the Participant or his
Beneficiary on the date of the closing of such transaction, or (ii) if a Participant incurs an
Unforeseeable Emergency, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, an amount from such
Participant’s Account or Accounts shall be immediately paid to the Participant on the date within
thirty (30) days after the date the Committee determines that the Participant has incurred an
Unforeseeable Emergency, provided that the Participant shall not have the right to designate the
taxable year of payment.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION

          The Company, through its Board of Directors, shall be responsible for the general
administration of the Plan and for carrying out the provisions hereof. The Board of Directors may
delegate any or all of its authority under the Plan to the Committee. The Company shall have all
such powers as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan, including the power to
determine all questions relating to eligibility for and the amount in the Account and all questions
pertaining to claims for benefits and procedures for claim review; to resolve all other questions
arising under the Plan, including any questions of construction; and to take such further action as
the Company shall deem advisable in the administration of the Plan. The actions taken and the
decisions made by the Company hereunder shall be final and binding upon all interested parties. In
accordance with the provisions of Section 503 of the Employee Income Retirement Security Act of
1974, the Company shall provide a procedure for handling claims of Participants or their
Beneficiaries under this Plan. Such procedure shall be in accordance with regulations issued by
the Secretary of Labor and shall provide adequate written notice within a reasonable period of time
with respect to the denial of any such claim as well as a reasonable opportunity for a full and
fair review by the Company of any such denial.

ARTICLE IV

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

          The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan with respect to any future Year
at any time by action of its Board of Directors; provided, however, that no such action shall
adversely affect any Participant or Beneficiary who has a Account or shall result in

5

 

acceleration of payment of the amount of an Account, except as otherwise permitted under the
Plan.

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

     1. Nonalienation of Deferred Compensation. No Participant or Beneficiary shall
encumber or dispose of the right to receive any payments hereunder.

     2. Interest of Director. The obligation of the Company under the Plan to make payment
of amounts reflected on an Account merely constitutes the unsecured promise of only the Company to
make payments from its general assets as provided herein, and no Participant or Beneficiary shall
have any interest in, or a lien or prior claim upon, any property of the Company. Further, no
Participant or Beneficiary shall have any claim whatsoever against any Subsidiary for amounts
reflected on an Account. The Company may establish a so-called “rabbi trust” to hold funds, stock
or other securities to be used in payment of its obligations under the Plan, and may fund such
trust; provided, however, that any funds contained therein shall remain subject to the claims of
the Company’s general creditors.

     3. Claims of Other Persons. The provisions of the Plan shall in no event be construed
as giving any person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right as against the Company or
any subsidiary, or the officers, employees, or directors of the Company or any subsidiary, except
any such rights as are specifically provided for in the Plan or are hereafter created in accordance
with the terms and provisions of the Plan.

     4. Severability. The invalidity and unenforceability of any particular provision of
the Plan shall not affect any other provision hereof, and the Plan shall be construed in all
respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted herefrom.

     5. Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio.

     6. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended
that this Plan and any grants made hereunder comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the
Code. The Plan and any grants made hereunder shall be administered in a manner consistent with
this intent.

all or a portion of his or her Incentive Compensation must complete and deliver an Election
Agreement to the Secretary of the Company before the first day of the first Year of service for
which such Incentive Compensation is payable. An Eligible Associate who timely delivers an

Eligible Associate after the Effective Date, e.g., new hires or promoted associates, may

Election Agreement within thirty (30) days after becoming an Eligible Associate.

          (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provision of Subsection (i), subject to the approval of
the Company, with respect to any “performance-based” compensation (as determined by the Company in
accordance with Section 409A of the Code) based on services performed over a period of at least 12
months, an Eligible Associate may complete and deliver an Election Agreement to the Secretary of
the Company no later than six months before the end of such period.

          (iv) An Election Agreement that is timely delivered shall be effective for the succeeding Year
and, except as otherwise specified by an Eligible Associate in his or her Election Agreement, shall
continue to be effective from Year to Year until revoked or modified by written notice to the

          (v) Subject to the approval of the Company, a Participant may make a subsequent election

               (a) the subsequent election shall not take effect until at least 12 months after the date on
which such amendment is made;

               (b) in the case of a subsequent election related to a payment not made on account of the
Participant’s death or an Unforeseeable Emergency, the first payment with respect to which the
amendment is made shall in all cases be deferred for a period of not less then 5 years from the
date on which such payment otherwise would have been made;

               (c) in the case of a subsequent election related to a payment that is to be made at a
specified time or pursuant to a fixed schedule, such an amendment of the election must be made at
least 12 months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment.

Agreement the percentage of his or her Incentive Compensation that is to be deferred. A
Participant may specify in the Election Agreement that different percentages shall apply to
different Incentive Compensation plans or different forms of payment, i.e., cash or Common Shares.
The applicable percentage or percentages of Incentive Compensation shall be deferred until the
earlier to occur of (a) the date the Participant experiences a “separation from service” with the
Company (determined in accordance with the standards of Section 409A of the Code);
provided, however, that in the case of a Participant who is a “specified employee”
(within the meaning of Code Section 409A of the Code) as of the date of such separation from
service, such date shall be the first day of the seventh month after the date of the Participant’s
separation from service with the Company, or (b) the date specified by the Participant on the
Election Agreement.

     4. Accounts. (i) Cash Incentive Compensation that a Participant elects to defer
shall be treated as if it were set aside in an Account on the date the Incentive Compensation would
otherwise have been paid to the Participant. A Participant’s Account shall be credited with gains,
losses and earnings based on hypothetical investment directions made by the Participant, in
accordance with investment deferral crediting options and procedures adopted by the Committee from
time to time. A Participant may change such hypothetical investment directions pursuant to such
procedures adopted by the Committee from time to time. The Company specifically retains the right
in its sole discretion to change the investment deferral crediting options and procedures from time
to time. By electing to defer any amount pursuant to the Plan, each Participant shall thereby
acknowledge and agree that the Company is not and shall not be required to make any investment in
connection with the Plan, nor is it required to follow the Participant’s hypothetical investment
directions in any actual investment it may make or acquire in connection with the Plan or in
determining the amount of any actual or contingent liability or obligation of the Company
thereunder or relating thereto. Any amounts credited to a Participant’s Account with respect to
which a Participant does not provide investment direction shall be credited with earnings in an
amount determined by the Committee in its sole discretion or, if an amount is not so determined,
such amounts shall bear interest at                      until further ordered by the Committee or the Board
of Directors. A Participant’s Account shall be adjusted as of each business day, except that
interest, if any, for a calendar quarter shall be credited on the first day of the following
quarter.

          (ii) Incentive Compensation payable in the form of Common Shares that a Participant elects to
defer shall be reflected in a separate Account, which shall be credited with the number of Common
Shares that would otherwise have been issued or transferred and delivered to the Participant. Such
Account shall be credited from time to time with amounts equal to dividends or other distributions
paid on the number of Common Shares reflected in such Account, and such Account shall be credited
with gains, losses and earnings on cash amounts credited to such Account from time to time in the
manner provided in Subsection (i) above with respect to Cash Incentive Compensation.

     5. Payment of Accounts. The amounts in Participants’ Accounts shall be paid as
provided in this Section 5.

          (i) The amount of a Participant’s Account attributable to deferral of cash Incentive
Compensation shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum or in a number of approximately equal
quarterly installments (not to exceed 40), as designated by the Participant in the Election
Agreement. The amount of such Account remaining unpaid shall continue to be credited with gains,
losses and earnings as provided in Section 4 of this Article. The lump sum payment or the first
quarterly installment, as the case may be, shall be made on the last day of the period of deferral
as specified in Section 3 of this Article. Each payment to the Participant under this Section 5(i)
shall be considered a separate payment and not one of a series of payments.

          (ii) The number of Common Shares in a Participant’s Account attributable to deferral of
Incentive Compensation payable in the form of Common Shares shall be issued or transferred to the
Participant on the last day of the period of deferral as specified in Section 3 of this Article.
All amounts credited to such Account in respect of dividends and distributions, and the gains,
losses and earnings thereon as provided in Subsection (ii) of Section 4 of this Article shall
likewise be paid to the Participant at such time. Upon application of an Eligible Associate prior
to his or her election to defer Incentive Compensation payable in the form of Common Shares, the
Committee may authorize payment in installments of the amounts in his or her Account attributable
to such Incentive Compensation, which shall commence to be paid on the last day of the period of
deferral as specified in Section 3 of this Article. Each payment to the Participant under this
Section 5(ii) shall be considered a separate payment and not one of a series of payments.

     6. Death of a Participant. In the event of the death of a Participant, the amount of
the Participant’s Account or Accounts shall be paid to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated
in a writing substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Beneficiary
Designation”), in accordance with the Participant’s Election Agreement and Section 5 of this
Article. A Participant’s Beneficiary Designation may be changed at any time prior to his or her
death by the execution and delivery of a new Beneficiary Designation. The Beneficiary Designation
on file with the Company that bears the latest date at the time of the Participant’s death shall
govern. In the absence of a Beneficiary Designation or the failure of any Beneficiary to survive
the Participant, the amount of the Participant’s Account or Accounts shall be paid to the
Participant’s estate. In the event of the death of the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries after the
death of a Participant, the remaining amount of the Account or Accounts shall continue to be paid
to the estate of the last Beneficiary to receive payments. Any payments to be made upon the death
of the Participant before the Participant’s Account has begun to be paid shall be paid or commence
to be paid within ninety (90) days of the date of the Participant’s death, provided that the
Beneficiary shall not have the right to

6

 

designate the taxable year of payment. Any payments to be made upon the death of the
Participant after the Participant’s Account has begun to be paid shall be paid to the Beneficiary
at the same time as they would have been paid to the Participant if then living.

     7. Small Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, upon the date that payments
would commence under Section 3, the total value of the account balance(s) held by a Participant
under this Plan, and any other agreements, methods, programs, plans or other arrangements with
respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single
nonqualified deferred compensation plan with the account balances under the Plan under Treas. Reg.
§ 1.409A-1(c)(2), does not exceed the applicable dollar amount under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the
Code, the entire amount of the Account shall be paid in a lump sum in accordance with Section 5 of
this Article.

     8. Acceleration. Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing: (i) if a Change in
Control, which constitutes a “change in the ownership or effective control of the corporation, or
in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the corporation” (for purposes of
Section 409A of the Code), occurs, the amount of each Participant’s Account or Accounts shall
immediately be paid to the Participant in full on the date of the closing of such transaction or
(ii) if a Participant incurs an Unforeseeable Emergency, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of
the Code, an amount from such Participant’s Account or Accounts shall be immediately paid to the
Participant on the date within thirty (30) days after the date the Committee determines that the
Participant has incurred an Unforeseeable Emergency, provided that the Participant shall not have
the right to designate the taxable year of payment.

     9. Adjustments. The Board may make or provide for such adjustments in the numbers of
Common Shares credited to Participants’ Accounts, and in the kind of shares so credited, as the
Board in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, may determine is equitably required to
prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants that otherwise would result from (i)
any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the
capital structure of the Company, or (ii) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out,
split-up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets, issuance
of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (iii) any other corporate transaction or event
having an effect similar to any of the foregoing. Moreover, in the event of any such transaction
or event, the Board, in its discretion, may provide in substitution for any or all Common Shares
deliverable under this Plan such alternative consideration as it, in good faith, may determine to
be equitable in the circumstances.

     10. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue any fractional
Common Shares pursuant to this Plan. The Board may provide for the elimination of fractions or for
the settlement of fractions in cash.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION

     The Company, through its Board, shall be responsible for the general administration of the
Plan and for carrying out the provisions hereof. The Board may delegate any or all of its
authority

7

 

under the Plan to the Committee. The Company shall have all such powers as may be necessary
to carry out the provisions of the Plan, including the power to (i) determine all questions
relating to eligibility for participation in the Plan and the amount in the Account or Accounts of
any Participant and all questions pertaining to claims for benefits and procedures for claim
review, (ii) resolve all other questions arising under the Plan, including any questions of
construction, and (iii) take such further action as the Company shall deem advisable in the
administration of the Plan. The actions taken and the decisions made by the Company hereunder
shall be final and binding upon all interested parties. In accordance with the provisions of
Section 503 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Company shall provide a
procedure for handling claims of Participants or their Beneficiaries under this Plan. Such
procedure shall be in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor and shall
provide adequate written notice within a reasonable period of time with respect to the denial of
any such claim as well as a reasonable opportunity for a full and fair review by the Company of any
such denial.

ARTICLE IV

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan with respect to any future Year
at any time by action of the Board; provided, however, that no such action shall adversely affect
any Participant or Beneficiary who has an Account, or result in the acceleration of payment of the
amount of any Account (except as otherwise permitted under the Plan).

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

     1. Non-alienation of Deferred Compensation. Except as permitted by this Plan, no
right or interest under this Plan of any Participant or Beneficiary shall, without the written
consent of the Company, be (i) assignable or transferable in any manner, (ii) subject to
alienation, anticipation, sale, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, garnishment or other legal process
or (iii) in any manner liable for or subject to the debts or liabilities of the Participant or
Beneficiary.

     2. Participation by Associates of Subsidiaries. An Eligible Associate who is employed
by a Subsidiary and elects to participate in the Plan shall participate on the same basis as an
associate of the Company. The Account or Accounts of a Participant employed by a Subsidiary shall
be paid in accordance with the Plan solely by such Subsidiary to the extent attributable to
Incentive Compensation that would have been paid by such Subsidiary in the absence of deferral
pursuant to the Plan.

     3. Interest of Associate. The obligation of the Company under the Plan to make
payment of amounts reflected in an Account merely constitutes the unsecured promise of the Company
to make payments from its general assets or in the form of its Common Shares, as the case may be,
as provided herein, and no Participant or Beneficiary shall have any interest in, or a lien or
prior claim upon, any property of the Company. Further, no Participant or Beneficiary shall have
any claim whatsoever against any Subsidiary for amounts reflected in an Account. The Company shall
establish a so-called “rabbi trust” to hold funds, Common Shares or other securities

8

 

to be used in payment of its obligations under the Plan, and may fund such trust; provided,
however, that any funds contained therein shall remain subject to the claims of the general
creditors of the Company or the Subsidiary for which the Eligible Associate performs services.
Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as guaranteeing future employment to Eligible Associates.
It is the intention of the Company that the Plan be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of
Title I of ERISA.

     4. Claims of Other Persons. The provisions of the Plan shall in no event be construed
as giving any other person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right as against the
Company or any Subsidiary or the officers, associates or directors of the Company or any
Subsidiary, except any such rights as are specifically provided for in the Plan or are hereafter
created in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan.

     5. Severability. The invalidity and unenforceability of any particular provision of
the Plan shall not affect any other provision hereof, and the Plan shall be construed in all
respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted herefrom.

     6. Governing Law. Except to the extent preempted by federal law, the provisions of
the Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio.

     7. Relationship to Other Plans. This Plan is intended to serve the purposes of and to
be consistent with the 1991 Plan and any similar plan approved by the Board for purposes of this
Plan. The issuance or transfer of Common Shares pursuant to this Plan shall be subject in all
respects to the terms and conditions of the 1991 Plan and any other such plan. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, Common Shares credited to the Accounts of Participants pursuant to
this Plan as Incentive Compensation shall be taken into account for purposes of Section 3 of the
1991 Plan (Shares Available Under the Plan) and for purposes of the corresponding provisions of any
other such plan.

     8. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended
that this Plan and any grants made hereunder comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the
Code. The Plan and any grants made hereunder shall be administered in a manner consistent with
this intent.
