Re:
SUPERSEDING PROVISIONS 

for

Plan Name:  Chicago Board Options
Exchange Supplemental Retirement Plan

 

(a)           Superseding Provision(s)
— The following provisions supersede other provisions of this Adoption
Agreement and/or the Basic Plan Document as described below:

 

1.     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 1.03(a)(2), all Employees described in item 5 below are eligible to
participate and shall be considered “Participants” in the Plan to the extent
set forth in item 5.

 

2.     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 1.04, for purposes of determining Deferral Contributions under the
Plan, Compensation shall include only base compensation and bonuses (including
amounts deferred by the Participant under the Chicago Board Options Exchange
Deferred Compensation Plan for Officers). 
Compensation shall specifically exclude amounts contributed by the
Employer under the Senior Executive Cafeteria Plan.

 

3.     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Sections 1.05(a)(1) and 1.05(a)(2), Deferral Contributions shall be in whole
and fractional percentages as designated by a Participant in his or her
election form.

 

4.     Section 1.05 -Contributions.  A Participant may elect to make deferral
contributions, pursuant to § 1.05(a) of the Adoption Agreement in an amount or
percentage of his or her Compensation for any Plan Year in excess of
$230,000.  Deferral contributions with
respect to Compensation amounts below $230,000 may be made only under the Chicago
Board Options Exchange Smart Plan. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article 4.01, an election to
defer Compensation shall continue in effect for Compensation relating to all
services performed in succeeding calendar years until modified or revoked by
the Participant with a subsequent election form pursuant to Article 4.

 

The Company
will make a matching contribution to the Plan as set forth in § 1.05(b) of the
Adoption Agreement based upon the amount of each Participant’s deferral
contributions made under the Plan; provided that such matching contribution
will be based only on the Participant’s deferral contributions that relate to
his Compensation in excess of $230,000. 
Compensation for purposes of § 1.05 shall have the meaning set forth in
§ 1.04.

 

The $230,000
amounts referred to above shall all in cases be adjusted periodically to
reflect cost of living increases at the same time and in the same manner as
such amount is adjusted under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17), or any
successor section.

 

5.     Section 1.05(b)(2) — Matching
Contributions.  Notwithstanding the
coverage requirements of Section 1.03(a) or the matching contribution described
in Section 1.05(b) of the Adoption Agreement, the Employer shall make a
matching contribution and/or a profit sharing 

 

18

 

contribution to the Plan
for the Plan Year for any Employee (regardless of the amount of his or her
Compensation for such Plan Year) who elects to defer earnings otherwise payable
to him or her in such Plan Year pursuant to the terms of the Chicago Board
Option Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan for Officers, and as a result
thereof receives a reduced matching contribution and/or a reduced profit
sharing contribution for such Plan Year pursuant to the terms of the Chicago
Board Options Exchange Smart Plan.  The
amount of the matching contribution and/or a profit sharing contribution made
by the Employer to the Plan for a Participant pursuant to the terms of the
preceding sentence shall equal the amount by which the matching contribution
and/or profit sharing contribution made for him or her for the applicable Plan
Year pursuant to the terms of the Chicago Board Options Exchange Smart Plan is
reduced as a result of a deferral of earnings made pursuant to the terms of the
Chicago Board Options Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan for Officers.  A matching contribution and/or a profit
sharing contribution made for a Participant pursuant to this paragraph shall be
in addition to any matching contribution, if any, made for him or her for the
applicable Plan Year pursuant to the Adoption Agreement.

 

6.     If elected by the Participant on his or her
initial election form, distribution of a Participant’s entire interest in the
Plan shall be made after the date of consummation of a Change in Control in
accordance with Sections 1.07(a)(1)(G) and 1.07(c)(1); provided, however, that
a Change in Control shall not include:

 

(a)           any change in form of organization of
the Employer from a non-stock entity to a stock corporation, or

 

(b)           any public offering of the Employer’s
shares of stock after it becomes a stock corporation.

 

If the Participant fails to make an election,
a Change in Control distribution shall not be made to the Participant.

 

7.     Article 7.02 shall be replaced in its
entirety with the following:

 

7.02.  Death.  If provided by the Employer in Section 1.08(e)(2),
the Account of a Participant or former Participant who dies before the
distribution of his entire Account will be 100% vested, provided that at the
time of his death he is earning Years of Service.

 

Each Participant from time to time, pursuant
to a beneficiary designation form furnished by the Employer, may designate any
legal or natural person or persons (who may be designated contingently or
successively) to whom his or her Plan interest is to be paid if he or she dies
before receiving the entire balance thereof. 
A beneficiary designation shall be effective only when the executed
beneficiary form is delivered to the Employer in writing or by other method
prescribed by the Employer while the Participant is alive and will cancel all
beneficiary designation forms delivered earlier.  If a deceased Participant fails to designate
a beneficiary prior to his or her death, or if all designated beneficiaries
predecease the Participant, his or her interest in the Plan shall be paid to
his or her surviving spouse, or if none, to his or her lawful 

 

19

 

descendants, per stirpes,
or if none survive him or her, to the legally appointed representatives of his
or her estate, or if none are appointed within six months after the date of his
or her death, to his or her heirs at law.

 

8.     Section 1.08(d) - Forfeiture.  Notwithstanding the vesting schedules set
forth in Sections 1.08(a) and (b), if the employment of any Participant,
including the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Employer, shall be
terminated by the Employer for Cause, the Matching Contributions and
Discretionary Employer Contributions credited to the Account of the Participant
shall be forfeited, and no amount shall be payable to or with respect to the
Participant pursuant to the terms of the Plan. 
For purposes of this Section, Cause shall be deemed to exist if, and
only if:

 

(a)           A Participant shall engage, during
the performance of his or her duties for the Employer, in acts or omissions
constituting dishonesty, intentional breach of fiduciary obligation, or
intentional wrongdoing or malfeasance;

 

(b)           A Participant shall intentionally disobey
or disregard a lawful and proper direction of the Board of Directors; or

 

(c)           A Participant shall materially breach
an employment agreement entered into between the Participant and the Employer
and such breach by its nature is incapable of being cured, or such breach
remains uncured for more than 30 days following receipt by the Participant of
written notice from the Employer specifying the nature of the breach and
demanding the cure thereof.  For purposes
of this clause (c), a material breach of any such employment agreement that
involves inattention by the Participant to his or her duties under the
employment agreement shall be deemed a breach capable of cure.

 

In addition, the Participant’s employment
shall be deemed to have terminated for Cause if, after the Participant’s
employment has terminated, facts and circumstances arising during the course of
the Participant’s employment are discovered that would have justified a
termination for Cause.

 

The following
shall not constitute Cause:

 

(a)           Any personal or policy disagreement
between a Participant and the Employer, or any member of the Employer or of the
Board of Directors, or

 

(b)           Any action taken by a Participant in
connection with his or her duties for the Employer, or any failure to act, if
the Participant acted or failed to act in good faith, and in a manner he or she
reasonably believed to be in, and not opposed to, the best interest of the
Employer, and he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct
was unlawful.

 

If the Matching Contributions and
Discretionary Employer Contributions credited to the Account of a Participant
shall be forfeited by reason of his or her termination of employment for Cause,
the Employer shall give at least 30 days prior written notice to the Participant
specifying in detail the reason or reasons constituting Cause.

 

20

 

9.     In addition to the events indicated under Section
1.07(e), a Participant will be fully vested in his or her Account in the event
of the termination of the Plan.

Re: 
SUPERSEDING PROVISIONS

for

Plan Name:  Chicago Board Options
Exchange Deferred Compensation for Officers

 

(a)           Superseding Provision(s) -
The following provisions supersede other provisions of this Adoption Agreement
and/or the Basic Plan Document as described below:

 

1.             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 1.04,
for purposes of determining Deferral Contributions under the Plan, Compensation
shall include only base compensation and bonuses.  Compensation shall specifically exclude
amounts contributed by the Employer under the Senior Executive Cafeteria Plan.

 

2.             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections
1.05(a)(1) and 1.05(a)(2), Deferral Contributions shall be in whole and
fractional percentages as designated by a Participant in his or her election
form.

 

3.             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article 4.01,
an election to defer Compensation shall continue in effect for Compensation
relating to all services performed in succeeding calendar years until modified
or revoked by the Participant with a subsequent election form pursuant to Article 4.

 

4.             If elected by the Participant on his or her initial
election form, distribution of a Participant’s entire interest in the Plan
shall be made after the date of consummation of a Change in Control in
accordance with Sections 1.07(a)(1)(G) and 1.07(c)(1); provided, however,
that a Change in Control shall not include:

 

(a)           any
change in form of organization of the Employer from a non-stock entity to a
stock corporation, or

 

(b)           any
public offering of the Employer’s shares of stock after it becomes a stock
corporation.

If the Participant fails to make an election, a Change in Control
distribution shall not be made to the Participant.

 

5.             Article 7.02 shall be replaced in its entirety with
the following:

 

7.02.       Death. 
If provided by the Employer in Section 1.08(e)(2), the Account of a
Participant or former Participant who dies before the distribution of his
entire Account will be 100% vested, provided that at the time of his death he
is earning Years of Service.

 

Each Participant from time to time, pursuant to a beneficiary
designation form furnished by the Employer, may designate any legal or natural
person or persons 

 

18

 

(who may be designated contingently or successively) to whom his or her
Plan interest is to be paid if he or she dies before receiving the entire
balance thereof.  A beneficiary
designation shall be effective only when the executed beneficiary form is
delivered to the Employer in writing or by other method prescribed by the
Employer while the Participant is alive and will cancel all beneficiary
designation forms delivered earlier.  If
a deceased Participant fails to designate a beneficiary prior to his or her
death, or if all designated beneficiaries predecease the Participant, his or
her interest in the Plan shall be paid to his or her surviving spouse, or if
none, to his or her lawful descendants, per stirpes, or if
none survive him or her, to the legally appointed representatives of his or her
estate, or if none are appointed within six months after the date of his or her
death, to his or her heirs at law under the laws of descent and distribution of
the state in which the Participant is domiciled at the date of death.
