(a) The Normal Form of payment of retirement benefits for a Participant who  does not have a Spouse (as defined in the applicable Part) shall be a life only annuity for the life  of the Participant.  The normal form of payment of retirement benefits for a Participant who does  have a Spouse (as defined in the applicable Part) shall be a qualified joint and fifty percent (50%)  survivor annuity pursuant to which the Participant will be paid reduced amounts which are the  Actuarial Equivalent of the Accrued Benefit, and in the event the Participant predeceases his or  her Spouse (to which he was married on the Annuity Starting Date), monthly payments equal to  fifty percent (50%) of such reduced amounts shall be continued to such Spouse for his or her life.  (b) Any Participant who becomes eligible to receive benefits under the Plan  may select an optional form of benefit as provided in Section 3.02 hereof in lieu of the normal  form.  Section 3.02.

(a) In lieu of the normal form of payment provided in Section 3.01 hereof, a  Participant may elect to receive his or her retirement benefits in one of the following optional  forms of payment as hereinafter described, or, if applicable, any other optional forms described  in the applicable Part, each of which is the Actuarial Equivalent of the Participant’s Accrued  Benefit:  (i) Life Only Option.  A monthly benefit in the amount determined  under the applicable Part shall be payable to the Participant for  life, with the final payment being paid for the month in which the  Participant dies.  (ii) 10-Year Period Certain Option.  An actuarially reduced benefit  shall be payable to the Participant through the month in which  the Participant dies, and in the event the Participant dies prior to  receiving 120 monthly payments, monthly payments in the same  amount shall be continued payable to the Participant’s  Beneficiary until an aggregate of 120 monthly payments have  been made.  (iii) Joint and 50% Survivor Option.

If the Beneficiary is a person  other than the Participant’s Spouse, then the present value of the  benefits payable to the Participant shall not be less than fifty  percent (50%) of the present value of the benefits which would  

 

9  4841-1404-2944.2  have been payable to the Participant in the form of a Life Only  Option.  (iv) Joint and 75% Survivor Option.  An actuarially reduced benefit  shall be payable to the Participant through the month in which  the Participant dies and, in the event that the Participant dies  before his or her Beneficiary, monthly payments equal to  seventy-five percent (75%) of such reduced amount shall be  continued to the Beneficiary for his or her life.

(vi) Lump Sum Option.  If the Actuarial Equivalent lump sum value  of the Participant’s vested Accrued Benefit does not exceed  $10,000, then the Participant may elect a distribution in the form  of a lump sum, or in any other form described in this Section  3.02, at any time after termination of employment.

Such designation may be changed or revoked at any time prior to the Annuity  Starting Date or, in the case of the 10-Year Period Certain, at any time prior to the death of the  Participant.  If the Participant elects the 10-Year Period Certain Option and both the Participant  and his or her Beneficiary die prior to receipt of 120 monthly payments in the aggregate, then the  remainder of such 120 monthly payments shall be paid to the estate of the last to die of the  Participant or his or her Beneficiary.  (c) Any election pursuant to this Article III shall be made pursuant and  subject to such rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Administrator.  Any election of  an optional form by a Participant with a Spouse (as defined in the applicable Part) shall be  invalid unless either (i) the Participant’s Spouse as of the Annuity Starting Date has executed the  

 

10  4841-1404-2944.2  election form and acknowledged its effect, with such consent being witnessed by a notary public  or a Plan representative appointed by the Administrator, or (ii) the Participant has demonstrated  to the satisfaction of the Administrator that he or she has no Spouse of whom consent is required,  his or her Spouse cannot be located or he or she is excused from obtaining spousal consent  because of other circumstances recognized under the Code.  Any such election may be made or  revoked at any time prior to the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date.  Effective as of the Annuity  Starting Date, the form of payment selected shall be irrevocable.  The Administrator shall notify  the Participant and the Spouse of their rights under this Article as required by ERISA.  (d) If a Participant has an Accrued Benefit under more than one Part of this  Plan, the Participant may make separate distribution elections for each Part’s benefits.  Section 3.03. Commencement and Termination of Benefits.  (a) Unless otherwise provided under this Article III, a Participant’s retirement  benefits shall become payable as of the first day of the month in which occurs the Participant’s  effective date of commencement, as described below.  In no event shall benefits commence  hereunder until after a Participant has terminated employment from the Employer and its  Affiliates, unless expressly otherwise provided herein, and in no event shall benefits commence  hereunder unless and until the Participant has made proper application therefor.  (i) A Participant’s effective date of commencement of normal  retirement benefits is the later of the Participant’s Normal  Retirement Date or the first day of the month after his or her  termination of employment from the Employer and all of its  Affiliates.  (ii) A Participant’s effective date of commencement of early or  deferred retirement benefits is the date requested by the  Participant  after his or her termination from employment from  the Employer and all of its Affiliates, which date shall be no  earlier than his or her Early Retirement Date (as applicable) or  the date otherwise permitted by the applicable Part.  (iii) A Participant’s effective date of commencement of disability  retirement benefits, if applicable, is the later to occur of the first  day of the month following the date the Participant makes proper  application for such benefits or the date that is six months after  the Participant’s Total and Permanent Disability commences.   Except as set forth in an applicable Part of the Plan, disability  benefits shall cease if it is determined that the Participant’s Total  and Permanent Disability has ceased or upon the Participant’s  death prior to age sixty-five (65).  At age sixty-five (65), the  disability benefits shall stop and the Participant shall be entitled  to a normal retirement benefit, including the right to elect  optional methods of payment.  

 

11  4841-1404-2944.2  (b) If a Participant’s benefits are being paid in a form of payment that  provides for continued payments after the Participant’s death, then the death benefits shall  become payable as of the first day of the month which is next following the death of the  Participant.  (c) Subject to applicable spousal consent rules, a Participant may elect to  receive a lump sum payment of his or her Profit Sharing Benefit under Part A of the Plan at any  time after his or her termination of employment but in all events no later than his or her Annuity  Starting Date, whether or not he or she qualifies for a benefit pursuant to Article III of Part A.  (d) Any application for benefits hereunder shall be in writing on a form  provided by the Administrator and shall be made to the Administrator or to such representative  as may be designated by the Administrator for that purpose.  The Administrator may require any  applicant for a pension to furnish to it any such information as may reasonably be required.  (e) The Administrator will notify a Participant when a benefit under the Plan  is requested.  Within ninety (90) days but not less than thirty (30) days prior to a Participant’s  anticipated Annuity Starting Date, the Administrator shall provide to the Participant a written  explanation of:  (i) the terms and conditions of the normal form of benefit payable to the  Participant and the relative value of the optional forms of payment; (ii) a general description of  the eligibility conditions under the Plan; (iii) the Participant’s right to waive the normal form of  benefit and the effect of such a waiver; (iv) the rights of a Participant’s Spouse; (v) the  Participant’s right to revoke a previous waiver and the effect of revoking such a waiver; and (vi)  in the case of any distribution (other than an automatic cash-out of $5,000 or less) which is to  commence prior to the Participant’s attainment of Normal Retirement Date, the Participant’s  right to defer the commencement of the distribution until the Participant’s Normal Retirement  Date and the consequences of failing to defer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant’s  Annuity Starting Date may be less than thirty (30) days after the written explanation is provided  if (i) the written explanation clearly indicates that the Participant has the right to at least thirty  (30) days to consider whether to waive the normal form of distribution and election an optional  form, (ii) the Participant makes an affirmative election as to the form and time of distribution,  (iii) the Participant is permitted to revoke his or her affirmative election at least until the Annuity  Starting Date, or if later, at any time prior to the expiration of the 7-day period that begins the  day after the written explanation is provided to the Participant, and (iv) distribution in  accordance with the affirmative election is made after the expiration of such 7-day period.  (f) If the Participant dies prior to the Annuity Starting Date, any election  under this Article shall be considered revoked and void.  In any such case, benefits shall only be  payable pursuant to the death benefit rules set forth in the applicable Part.  (g) Benefit payments under this Article other than the guaranteed amounts  under the 10-Year Period Certain Option shall end with the payment made for the first day of the  month in which occurs the death of the Participant, Spouse, or Beneficiary, as applicable.  (h) Notwithstanding any other Section of the Plan, the payment of benefits  under the Plan to the Participant will begin no later than the 60th day after the close of the Plan  Year in which the last of the following occurs:  

 

12  4841-1404-2944.2  (i) the date on which the Participant attains age 65; or  (ii) the tenth anniversary of the date on which the Participant  commenced participation in the Plan; or  (iii) the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of a Participant and/or Spouse to make  proper application for a benefit as of the date specified above shall be deemed to be an election  to defer the start of benefits.  Section 3.04. Retroactive Annuity Starting Dates.  (a) Limited Application of Retroactive Annuity Starting Dates.  Except in the  limited circumstances described in this Section, the Plan does not provide for a retroactive  Annuity Starting Date (i.e., an Annuity Starting Date that occurs on or prior to the date the notice  described in Section 3.03(e) is provided to the Participant).  However, the Plan will permit a  Participant to elect a retroactive Annuity Starting Date in the following circumstances:  (i) the Participant files an application for benefits after the  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date; or  (ii) due to an administrative error or delay, the Administrator  provides to the Participant the notice described in Section 3.03  more than ninety (90) days after the Participant has made  application for benefits.  (b) If eligible, a Participant may elect a retroactive Annuity Starting Date  subject to the following rules:  (i) Either (A) in the case of a Participant who makes an application  for benefits after his or her Normal Retirement Date, the  retroactive Annuity Starting Date may not be before the later of  the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date or the first day of the  month following the date on which the Participant terminates  employment with the Employer and its Affiliates, or (B) in the  case of any other eligible Participant, the retroactive Annuity  Starting Date cannot be a date that precedes the first day of the  month following the date on which the Participant terminates  employment with the Employer and its Affiliates or, if later, the  first day of the month following the date on which the Participant  could have otherwise started to receive benefits under the Plan.  (ii) If the Participant is married, the Participant’s Spouse as of the  date the first benefit payment will be distributed will be treated  as a Spouse and must consent to the retroactive Annuity Starting  Date if either:  (A) the amount of the survivor’s benefit payable  to such Spouse under the joint and fifty percent (50%) survivor  

 

13  4841-1404-2944.2  annuity with a retroactive Annuity Starting Date is less than the  amount of the survivor’s benefit that would be payable to such  Spouse under the same form of benefit that commences  immediately after the notice is provided, or (B) the Participant  selects an optional form of distribution (other than an optional  joint and survivor benefit with respect to which such Spouse is  the designated contingent annuitant).  The consent of the  Participant’s Spouse as of the retroactive Annuity Starting Date  (if different than the Spouse as of the date benefits commence) is  not required, unless otherwise required by a qualified domestic  relations order.  (iii) The notice described in Section 3.03(e) is timely provided to the  Participant.  (iv) A Participant’s benefit shall be distributed pursuant to a  retroactive Annuity Starting Date only if the Participant is  eligible for and elects such a distribution (with consent of the  Participant’s Spouse as of the date benefits commence, where  required).  (v) The lump sum form of payment is not available to a Participant  for any benefits distributed pursuant to a retroactive Annuity  Starting Date.  (c) If payment is made pursuant to a retroactive Annuity Starting Date, then  the Participant shall receive, in addition to future monthly payments, a make-up payment to  reflect any missed payment or payments for the period from the retroactive Annuity Starting  Date to the date of the actual make-up payment, with interest, compounded annually, at a rate  determined by the Administrator.  Under current administrative practice, the interest rate is seven  percent (7%) per annum.  The retroactive payment or payments must not exceed the limits of  Code Section 415 as in effect on the dates the missed payment or payments would have been  made and, if the date that benefits commence is more than twelve (12) months after the Annuity  Starting Date, the retroactive payment or payments must also not exceed the limits of Code  Section 415 as in effect as of the date the payment or payments are actually made.   Section 3.05. Death Benefits.  If a vested Participant dies before his or her  Annuity Starting Date, the only death benefits payable shall be those set forth in the applicable  Part.  If a vested Participant dies on or after his or her Annuity Starting Date, the only death  benefits payable shall be those provided under the form of distribution in effect.  Section 3.06. Payment of Small Amounts and Service Cancellation Rules.  (a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event the  Actuarial Equivalent lump sum value of a Participant’s Accrued Benefit or the death benefits  payable to a Beneficiary or surviving Spouse) is less than $5,000, then the Administrator shall  pay such Actuarial Equivalent value in a lump sum to the Participant, Beneficiary or surviving  

 

14  4841-1404-2944.2  Spouse as soon as administratively feasible following the Participant’s separation from service or  death, as applicable.  The Actuarial Equivalent lump sum value shall be determined as soon as  administratively practicable after the Participant’s termination of employment or the date the  Administrator is provided notice of the Participant’s death, as applicable.  (b) In the event of a mandatory distribution greater than $1,000 that is made in  accordance with subsection (a) to a Participant without the Participant’s consent, if the  Participant does not elect to have such distribution paid directly to an “eligible retirement plan”  specified by the Participant in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution directly, then the  Administrator shall pay the distribution in a direct rollover to an individual retirement plan  designated by the Administrator.  (c) If a Participant’s entire vested benefit has been distributed or he or she has  no vested interest at the time of his or her termination of employment from the Employer and its  Affiliates, he or she shall be deemed cashed out from the Plan.  (d) If an employee is reemployed in a position covered by this Plan after  receiving a lump-sum benefit regardless of amount (including a deemed lump sum cashout), the  prior Vesting Service and Credited Service shall be retained and used in the calculation of the  subsequent benefits, if any, subject to an offset for the value of the monthly benefit paid by the  lump-sum distribution.  Section 3.07. Reemployment After Retirement.  In the event a Participant is  reemployed by the Employer or an Affiliate after commencing benefits under Article III hereof,  such benefit payments shall not be suspended during the period of reemployment, except as  provided in Section 3.08 or in a Part.  Section 3.08. Continued Employment or Re-Employment after Normal  Retirement Date.  (a) A Participant who has attained age sixty-five (65) but has not retired, or  who previously retired and was subsequently reemployed by the Employer or an Affiliate after  attaining age sixty-five (65), shall be deemed to have terminated employment for purposes of  this Plan if he or she completes fewer than forty (40) Hours of Service per calendar month.  Any  Participant who fails to receive benefit payments due to such employment shall be notified  pursuant to the requirements of DOL Reg. § 2530.203-3.  (b) For a Participant who receives an in-service distribution pursuant to the  application of subsection (a), upon such Participant’s termination of employment, he or she shall  be entitled to a pension hereunder based upon the Benefit Service or Credited Service, as  applicable, accrued prior to his or her attainment of age sixty-five (65) and the Benefit Service or  Credited Service, if any, accrued after his or her attainment of age sixty-five (65), but reduced by  the Actuarial Equivalent of the total amount of benefit payments received prior to the termination  of employment, but in no event shall Benefit Service or Credited Service, as applicable, be  credited after the date that such Benefit Service or Credited Service has been frozen under the  applicable Part of this Plan.  

 

15  4841-1404-2944.2  (c) If a Participant receives an in-service distribution during any calendar  month in which he or she completes forty (40) or more Hours of Service, such Participant’s  future benefit payments shall be offset by the amount of such in-service distribution, provided  that such offset does not exceed in any one month twenty-five (25%) percent of that month’s  total benefit payment which would have been due but for the offset.  Section 3.09. Direct Rollovers.  This Section deals with Participants’ and  Beneficiaries’ rights to distribution in the form of a direct rollover.  (a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would  otherwise limit a distributee’s election under this Plan, a distributee may elect, at the time and in  the manner prescribed by the Administrator, to have any portion of an eligible rollover  distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee in a direct  rollover.  (b) For purposes of this Section, the following definitions apply:  (i) Eligible rollover distribution:  An eligible rollover distribution is  any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit  of the distributee, except that an eligible rollover distribution  does not include:  (i) any distribution that is one of a series of  substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than  annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the distributee  or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the distributee and  the distributee’s designated beneficiary, or for a specified period  of ten years or more; (ii) any distribution to the extent such  distribution is required under Code Section 401(a)(9); or (iii) the  portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income  (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized  appreciation with respect to employer securities).   Notwithstanding the foregoing, a portion of a distribution shall  not fail to be an eligible rollover distribution merely because the  portion consists of after-tax employee contributions which are  not includible in gross income; however, such portion may be  transferred only as a direct rollover to an individual retirement  account or annuity described in Code Section 408(a) or (b), a  qualified plan described in Code Section 401(a) or 403(a), or a  tax-deferred annuity plan described in Code Section 403(b) that  agrees to separately account for amounts so transferred,  including separately accounting for the portion of such  distribution which is includible in gross income and the portion  of such distribution which is not so includible.  (ii) Eligible retirement plan:  An eligible retirement plan is an  individual retirement account described in Code Section 408(a),  an individual retirement annuity described in Code Section  408(b), a Roth IRA described in Code Section 408A, an annuity  

 

16  4841-1404-2944.2  plan described in Code Section 403(a), an annuity contract  described in Code Section 403(b), a qualified trust described in  Code Section 401(a), or an eligible plan described in Code  Section 457 which is maintained by a state, political subdivision  of a state, or an agency or instrumentality of a state or political  subdivision of a state and which agrees to separately account for  amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan, and that  accepts the distributee’s eligible rollover distribution.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, a non-spouse beneficiary may  roll over his or her interest only to an IRA.  (iii) Distributee:  A distributee includes an Employee or former  Employee.  In addition, the Employee’s or former Employee’s  spouse, surviving spouse or former spouse who is the alternate  payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in  Code Section 414(p), or non-spouse beneficiary qualify as  distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former  spouse.  (iv) Direct rollover:  A direct rollover is a payment by the Plan to the  eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee.  Section 3.10. Required Minimum Distributions.  (a) General.  The provisions of this Section 3.10 will apply for purposes of  determining required minimum distributions for calendar years beginning with 2003 and will  take precedence over any inconsistent provisions of the Plan.  This Section 3.10 shall not be  interpreted to provide any additional options to the recipient with respect to the form or timing of  payment beyond the other provisions of the Plan, except as necessary to comply with the  minimum requirements.  All Plan distributions will be determined and made in accordance with  the Treasury regulations under Code Section 401(a)(9).  Notwithstanding the other provisions of  this Section, distributions may be made under a designation made before January 1, 1984, in  accordance with Section 242(b)(2) of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) and  the Plan provisions that relate to Section 242(b)(2) of TEFRA.  (b) Definitions.  (i) Designated Beneficiary.  The designated beneficiary for purposes  of this Section is the individual who is the beneficiary designated  under the Plan and is the designated beneficiary under Code  Section 401(a)(9) and Section 1.401(a)(9)-1, Q&A-4, of the  Treasury regulations.  (ii) Distribution Calendar Year.  A distribution calendar year is a  calendar year for which a minimum distribution is required.  For  distributions beginning before the Participant’s death, the first  distribution calendar year is the calendar year immediately  

 

17  4841-1404-2944.2  preceding the calendar year which contains the Participant’s  required beginning date.  For distributions beginning after the  Participant’s death, the first distribution calendar year is the  calendar year in which distributions are required to begin under  Article III and/or the applicable Part of the Plan.  (iii) Life Expectancy.  Life expectancy means the value computed by  use of the Single Life Table in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the  Treasury regulations.  (iv) Required Beginning Date.  The date described in Section 1.01(x).  (c) Time and Manner of Distribution.  The Participant’s entire interest will be  distributed, or begin to be distributed, to the Participant no later than the Participant’s Required  Beginning Date.  If the Participant dies before distributions begin, the Participant’s entire interest  will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than as follows:  (i) If the Participant’s surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole  designated beneficiary, then distributions to the surviving spouse  will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately  following the calendar year in which the Participant died, or by  December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would  have attained age 701⁄2, if later.  (ii) If the Participant’s surviving spouse is not the Participant’s sole  designated beneficiary, then distributions to each designated  beneficiary will begin by December 31 of the calendar year  immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant  died.  (iii) If there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30 of the  year following the year of the Participant’s death, the  Participant’s entire interest will be distributed by December 31 of  the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the  Participant’s death.  (iv) If the Participant’s surviving spouse is the Participant’s sole  designated beneficiary and the surviving spouse dies after the  Participant but before distributions to the surviving spouse begin,  subparagraphs (ii) and (iii) will apply as if the surviving spouse  were the Participant.  Unless subsection (c)(iv) applies, distributions are considered to begin on the  Participant’s Required Beginning Date.  If subsection (c)(iv) applies, distributions are considered  to begin on the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse under subsection  (c)(i).  If distributions irrevocably commence to the Participant before the Participant’s Required  Beginning Date (or to the Participant’s surviving spouse before the date distributions are  

 

18  4841-1404-2944.2  required to begin to the surviving spouse under subsection (c)(i)), the date distributions are  considered to begin is the date distributions actually commence.  (d) Forms of Distribution.  Unless the Participant’s interest is distributed in  the form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company or in a single sum on or before the  Required Beginning Date, as of the first distribution calendar year distributions will be made in  accordance with the rules regarding required minimum distributions during the Participant’s  lifetime and after the Participant’s death, as applicable.  If the Participant’s interest is distributed  in the form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company, distributions thereunder will be  made in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(9) and the Treasury  regulations.  Any part of the Participant’s interest which is in the form of an individual account  described in Code Section 414(k) will be distributed in a manner satisfying the requirements of  Code Section 401(a)(9) and Treasury regulations that apply to individual accounts.  (e) Determination of Amount to be Distributed Each Year.  If the Participant’s  interest is paid in the form of annuity distributions under the Plan, payments under the annuity  will satisfy the following requirements:  (i) the annuity distributions will be paid in periodic payments made  at intervals not longer than one (1) year;  (ii) the distribution period will be over a life (or lives) or over a  period certain not longer than the period described in subsection  (f) or (g);  (iii) once payments have begun over a period, the period certain will  not be changed even if the period certain is shorter than the  maximum permitted;  (iv) payments will either be nonincreasing or increase only (A) by an  annual percentage increase that does not exceed the annual  percentage increase in a cost-of-living index that is based on  prices of all items and issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics;  (B) to the extent of the reduction in the amount of the  Participant’s payments to provide for a surviving benefit upon  death, but only if the beneficiary whose life was being used to  determine the distribution period described in subsection (i) dies  or is no longer the Participant’s beneficiary pursuant to a  qualified domestic relations order within the meaning of Code  Section 414(p); (C) to provide cash refunds of employee  contributions upon the Participant’s death; or (D) to pay  increased benefits that result from a plan amendment.  The amount that must be distributed on or before the Participant’s Required  Beginning Date (or, if the Participant dies before distributions begin, the date distributions are  required to begin under subsection (c)(i) or (ii)) is the payment that is required for one (1)  payment interval.  The second payment need not be made until the end of the next payment  

 

19  4841-1404-2944.2  interval even if that payment interval ends in the next calendar year.  Payment intervals are the  periods for which payments are received, e.g., bi-monthly, monthly, semi-annually, or annually.   All of the Participant’s benefit accruals as of the last day of the first distribution calendar year  will be included in the calculation of the amount of the annuity payments for payment intervals  ending on or after the Participant’s required beginning date.  Any additional benefits accruing to  the Participant in a calendar year after the first distribution calendar year will be distributed  beginning with the first payment interval ending in the calendar year immediately following the  calendar year in which such amount accrues.  (f) Requirements For Annuity Distributions That Commence During  Participant’s Lifetime.  If the Participant’s interest is being distributed in the form of a joint and  survivor annuity for the joint lives of the Participant and a non-spouse beneficiary, annuity  payments to be made on or after the Participant’s Required Beginning Date to the designated  beneficiary after the Participant’s death must not at any time exceed the applicable percentage of  the annuity payment for such period that would have been payable to the Participant using the  table set forth in Q&A-2 of Section 1.401(a)(9)-6 of the Treasury regulations.  If the form of  distribution combines a joint and survivor annuity for the joint lives of the Participant and a non- spouse beneficiary and period certain annuity, the requirement in the preceding sentence will  apply to annuity payments to be made to the designated beneficiary after the expiration of the  period certain.  Unless the Participant’s spouse is the sole designated beneficiary and the form of  distribution is a period certain and no life annuity, the period certain for an annuity distribution  commencing during the Participant’s lifetime may not exceed the applicable distribution period  for the Participant under the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the  Treasury regulations for the calendar year that contains the annuity starting date.  If the annuity  starting date precedes the year in which the Participant reaches age 70, the applicable distribution  period for the Participant is the distribution period for age 70 under the Uniform Lifetime Table  set forth in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury regulations plus the excess of 70 over the age  of the Participant as of the Participant’s birthday in the year that contains the annuity starting  date.  If the Participant’s spouse is the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary and the form of  distribution is a period certain and no life annuity, the period certain may not exceed the longer  of the Participant’s applicable distribution period, as determined under this subsection, or the  joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Participant and the Participant’s spouse as  determined under the Joint and Last Survivor Table set forth in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the  Treasury regulations, using the Participant’s and spouse’s attained ages as of the Participant’s  and spouse’s birthdays in the calendar year that contains the annuity starting date.  (g) Requirements For Minimum Distributions Where Participant Dies Before  Date Distributions Begin.  If the Participant dies before the date distribution of the Participant’s  interest begins and there is a designated beneficiary, the Participant’s entire interest will be  distributed, beginning no later than the time described in subsection (c)(i) or (ii), over the life of  the designated beneficiary or over a period certain not exceeding:  (i) unless the annuity starting date is before the first distribution  calendar year, the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary  determined using the beneficiary’s age as of the beneficiary’s  birthday in the calendar year immediately following the calendar  year of the Participant’s death; or  

 

20  4841-1404-2944.2  (ii) if the annuity starting date is before the first distribution calendar  year, the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary  determined using the beneficiary’s age as of the beneficiary’s  birthday in the calendar year that contains the annuity starting  date.  If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is no  designated beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year of the Participant’s  death, distribution of the Participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31 of the  calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.  If the Participant dies  before the date distribution of the Participant’s interest begins, the Participant’s surviving spouse  is the Participant’s sole designated beneficiary, and the surviving spouse dies before distributions  to the surviving spouse begin, this subsection will apply as if the surviving spouse were the  Participant, except that the time by which distributions must begin will be determined without  regard to subsection (f)(i).

21  4841-1404-2944.2  than $30,001 as of the Program Annuity Starting Date, (D) who  has not yet commenced receiving, nor would otherwise be  required under the Plan’s required minimum distribution rules to  commence receiving, his or her benefit payments as of the  Program Annuity Starting Date, and (E) who is living on the  Program Annuity Starting Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a  Participant whose election package is returned as undeliverable  mail will not be considered an Eligible Participant under this  Section.  (iv) “Lump Sum Actuarial Equivalent”  means the actuarial equivalent  benefit calculated using the applicable mortality table under Code  Section 417(e)(3)(B) for 2014 and the applicable interest rate  under Code Section 417(e)(3)(C) for the month of November,  2013 (the November preceding the first day of the Plan Year in  which occurs the Program Annuity Starting Date).  (v) “Lump Sum Amount” means the Lump Sum Actuarial Equivalent  value of the Distributable Benefit Amount.  If an Eligible  Participant had previously received any benefit payments under  the Plan (e.g., payment of the Eligible Participant’s Profit Sharing  Benefit under Part A of the Plan), then the Lump Sum Amount  will be reduced by the amount of any payments previously made  to or on behalf of the Participant.    (vi) “Program” means the 2014 Lump Sum Window Program  described in this Section.   (vii) “Program Annuity Starting Date” means December 1, 2014.   (b) Eligibility.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, an Eligible  Participant shall be eligible to participate in the Program.  Participation is limited to Eligible  Participants and, except as otherwise provided in subsection (g) below, is voluntary.  Surviving  spouses or beneficiaries of deceased Participants, and alternate payees under a qualified domestic  relations order, are not eligible.  If an Eligible Participant’s Lump Sum Amount is $5,000 or  more, then the Eligible Participant’s participation in the Program is governed by subsections (c)  – (f) below.  If an Eligible Participant’s Lump Sum Amount is less than $5,000, then the Eligible  Participant’s participation in the Program is governed by subsection (g) below.  (c) Distribution Timing and Form.  An Eligible Participant whose Lump Sum  Amount is $5,000 or more may, but need not, elect to participate in the Program and receive his  or her benefits as follows:  (i) If the Eligible Participant, as of the Program Annuity Starting  Date, is eligible to commence his or her monthly retirement  benefits under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to the  

 

22  4841-1404-2944.2  adoption of the Program, then such Eligible Participant may elect  to receive his or her benefits as:  (1) A single payment equal to the Lump Sum Amount  payable on the Program Annuity Starting Date (or as soon as  administratively feasible thereafter); or  (2) An annuity, commencing on the Program Annuity  Starting Date, in any annuity form otherwise available under the  Plan; provided that if the Program Annuity Starting date is after the  Eligible Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, then the Participant  may elect to receive his or her benefits as an annuity with a  retroactive Annuity Starting Date in accordance with the otherwise  applicable terms of the Plan.   (ii) If the Eligible Participant, as of the Program Annuity Starting  Date, is not eligible to commence his or her monthly retirement  benefits under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to the  adoption of the Program, then such Eligible Participant may elect  to receive his or her benefits as:  (A) A single payment equal to the Lump Sum Amount payable  on the Program Annuity Starting Date (or as soon as  administratively feasible thereafter); or  (B) An annuity, commencing on the Program Annuity Starting  Date, in any annuity form otherwise available under the  master Plan document (i.e., without regard to any optional  forms available solely under Parts A through G).  If an Eligible Participant elects an annuity form of payment, but does not  designate the annuity form, then such Eligible Participant’s benefits will be paid as a life only  annuity (for a Participant who does not have a Spouse on the Program Annuity Starting Date) or  as a joint and 50% survivor annuity (for a Participant who has a Spouse on the Program Annuity  Starting Date) with the Spouse as the contingent annuitant.  (d) Election Period and Procedures.  An Eligible Participant whose Lump  Sum Amount is $5,000 or more and who wishes to participate in the Program must make the  election referred to in subsection (c) above during the Election Window.  Elections by Eligible  Participants are irrevocable as of the Program Annuity Starting Date. An Eligible Participant’s  election shall be made in such form and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe,  consistent, other than with regard to the election period provided under this Section, with the  spousal consent, notice, and election requirements otherwise provided in the Plan and in  accordance with Code Sections 401(a)(11) and 417 with respect to benefit commencement and  the selection of the applicable form of payment. An Eligible Participant is not required to elect to  commence benefits under the Program.  If an Eligible Participant does not make a benefit  payment election under the Program during the Election Window or does not survive to the  

 

23  4841-1404-2944.2  Program Annuity Starting Date, then the special payment options available under the Program  will no longer be available, and the Participant’s vested Plan benefit will continue to be  distributable in accordance with the otherwise applicable terms of the Plan.  (e) Calculation of Immediate Annuity Benefit. If an Eligible Participant elects  to receive payment of his or her vested benefit in the form of an immediate monthly annuity,  then the annuity shall be the actuarial equivalent of the Distributable Benefit Amount, calculated  using the normal Actuarial Equivalent factors otherwise specified under the Plan for converting  one form of periodic payment to another.  (f) Death Before Payment.  If an Eligible Participant who has elected a  distribution under subsection (c) dies before the Program Annuity Starting Date, then the election  shall be null and void and the only benefits payable will be in accordance with the otherwise  applicable terms of the Plan.  If an Eligible Participant has elected to receive a distribution under  subsection (c) in the form of an annuity and the contingent annuitant dies before the Program  Annuity Starting Date, then the Eligible Participant’s election to participate in the Program shall  be null and void and the Eligible Participant will only be eligible to receive his or her benefit in  accordance with the otherwise applicable terms of the Plan.   An Eligible Participant whose  contingent annuitant dies before the end of the Election Window shall be permitted to re-submit  a new election before the end of the Election Window.  (g) Lump Sum Amount of Less than $5,000.  Notwithstanding anything  herein to the contrary, if an Eligible Participant’s Lump Sum Amount is less than $5,000, then  the Administrator will distribute such amount in a lump sum to the Eligible Participant on the  Program Annuity Starting Date (or as soon as administratively feasible thereafter).  If the Lump  Sum Amount of a mandatory distribution under this subsection (g) is greater than $1,000, and the  Eligible Participant does not elect to have such distribution paid directly to an “eligible  retirement plan” specified by the Eligible Participant in a direct rollover or to receive the  distribution directly, then the Administrator will make the distribution in a direct rollover to an  individual retirement account designated by the Administrator. No immediate annuity option is  available to an Eligible Participant whose Lump Sum Amount is less than $5,000.   Section 3.12. 2016 Lump Sum Window Program.  (a) Definitions.

24  4841-1404-2944.2  would be payable on the Program Annuity Starting Date,  calculated pursuant to the normal provisions of this Plan  (including any actuarial adjustments required under the terms of  the Plan with respect to the benefit of any Eligible Participant  whose Normal Retirement Date precedes the Program Annuity  Starting Date).  (ii) “Election Window” means the period commencing September  19, 2016 and ending October 31, 2016, with exceptions that may  be allowed by the Company, in its sole discretion, in reasonable  circumstances resulting in an untimely election.

If an  Eligible Participant had previously received any benefit  payments under the Plan (e.g. payment of the Eligible  

 

25  4841-1404-2944.2  Participant’s Profit Sharing Benefit under Part A of the Plan),  then the Lump Sum Amount will be reduced by the amount of  any payments previously made to or on behalf of the Participant.  (vi) “Program” means the 2016 Lump Sum Window Program  described in this Section.  (vii) “Program Annuity Starting Date” means December 1, 2016.  (b) Eligibility.

(c) Distribution Timing and Form.  An Eligible Participant whose Lump Sum  Amount is $5,000 or more may, but need not, elect to participate in the Program and receive his  or her benefits as follows:  (i) If the Eligible Participant, as of the Program Annuity Starting  Date, is eligible to commence his or her monthly retirement  benefits under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to the  adoption of the Program, then such Eligible Participant may elect  to receive his or her benefits as:  (A) A single payment equal to the Lump Sum Amount payable  on the Program Annuity Starting Date (or as soon as  administratively feasible thereafter); or  (B) An annuity, commencing on the Program Annuity Starting  Date, in any annuity form otherwise available under the  Plan; provided that if the Program Annuity Starting date is  after the Eligible Participant’s Normal Retirement Date,  then the Participant may elect to receive his or her benefits  as an annuity with a retroactive annuity starting date in  accordance with the otherwise applicable terms of the Plan.  In no event will a lump sum be available as of a retroactive  annuity starting date.  (ii) If the Eligible Participant, as of the Program Annuity Starting  Date, is not eligible to commence his or her monthly retirement  benefits under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to the  adoption of the Program, then such Eligible Participant may elect  to receive his or her benefits as:  

 

26  4841-1404-2944.2  (A) A single payment equal to the Lump Sum Amount payable  on the Program Annuity Starting Date (or as soon as  administratively feasible thereafter); or  (B) An annuity that is the Actuarial Equivalent of the  Distributable Benefit Amount, commencing on the  Program Annuity Starting Date in any annuity form  otherwise available to the Participant under the Master Plan  Document (i.e., without regard to any optional forms  available solely under Parts A through G); provided that the  joint and 50% and joint and 75% survivor annuity options  will only be available if the Eligible Participant’s spouse is  the contingent annuitant.  If an Eligible Participant elects an annuity form of payment, but  does not designate the annuity form, then such Eligible  Participant’s benefits will be paid as a life only annuity (for a  Participant who does not have a Spouse on the Program Annuity  Starting Date) or as a joint and 50% survivor annuity (for a  Participant who has a Spouse on the Program Annuity Starting  Date) with the Spouse as the contingent annuitant.   (d) Election Period and Procedures.  An Eligible Participant whose Lump  Sum Amount is $5,000 or more and who wishes to participate in the Program must make  the election referred to in subsection (c) above during the Election Window.  Elections by  Eligible Participants are irrevocable as of the Program Annuity Starting Date.

An Eligible Participant is not required to elect to commence benefits under the Program.   If an Eligible Participant does not make a benefit payment election under the Program  during the Election Window or does not survive to the Program Annuity Starting Date,  then the special payment options available under the Program will no longer be available,  and the Participant’s vested Plan benefit will continue to be distributable in accordance  with the otherwise applicable terms of the Plan.  (e) Calculation of Immediate Annuity Benefit. If an Eligible Participant elects  to receive payment of his or her vested benefit in the form of an immediate monthly  annuity, then the annuity shall be the actuarial equivalent of the Distributable Benefit  Amount, calculated using the normal Actuarial Equivalent factors otherwise specified  under the Plan for converting one form of periodic payment to another.  (f) Death Before Payment. If an Eligible Participant who has elected a  distribution under subsection (c) dies before the Program Annuity Starting Date, then the  election shall be null and void and the only benefits payable will be in accordance with

An Eligible Participant whose contingent annuitant dies  before the end of the Election Window shall be permitted to re-submit a new election  before the end of the Election Window.  (g) Lump Sum Amount of Less than $5,000.  Notwithstanding anything  herein to the contrary, if an Eligible Participant’s Lump Sum Amount is less than $5,000,  then the Administrator will distribute such amount in a lump sum to the Eligible  Participant on the Program Annuity Starting Date (or as soon as administratively feasible  thereafter).  If the Lump Sum Amount of a mandatory distribution under this subsection  (g) is greater than $1,000, and the Eligible Participant does not elect to have such  distribution paid directly to an “eligible retirement plan” specified by the Eligible  Participant in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution directly, then the  Administrator will make the distribution in a direct rollover to an individual retirement  account designated by the Administrator. No immediate annuity option is available to an  Eligible Participant whose Lump Sum Amount is less than $5,000.

The  Administrator shall be the administrator of the Plan for all purposes of ERISA and, subject to the  provisions of the Plan, shall have all discretionary authority that is necessary and appropriate to  carry out its duties as such.  The duties and authority of the Administrator shall include, but shall  not be limited to, the following, and shall be exercised by the Administrator in its discretion:  (a) Interpret and apply all provisions of the Plan, including without limitation,  the power to determine who is a Participant in the Plan, and the amount of Benefit Service and  Vesting Service for each such Participant;  (b) Formulate, issue and apply rules and regulations which are consistent with  the terms and provisions of the Plan and the requirements of applicable law;  (c) Make appropriate determinations and calculations and direct payment of  benefits accordingly;  (d) Prescribe and require the use of appropriate forms;  (e) Prepare all reports which may be required by law; and  (f) Inform any qualified funding agent of anticipated contributions and  benefit payments in order to aid in the establishment of an investment policy with respect to the  assets of the Plan.  The Administrator shall exercise such authority in a manner consistent with the provisions of the  Plan and so that employees in like circumstances are treated similarly.  All determinations made by the Administrator pursuant to its discretionary  authority shall be final and binding on all parties unless arbitrary and capricious.  Section 4.03. Procedure.  The Administrator may adopt in writing such bylaws,  procedures and operating rules as the Administrator may deem appropriate.  Section 4.04. Delegation of Duties and Responsibilities.

Use of Professional Services.  The Administrator may obtain the  services of such attorneys, actuaries, accountants or other persons the Administrator may deem  appropriate, any of whom may be the same persons who are providing services to the Company.   In any case in which the Administrator utilizes such services, the Administrator shall retain  exclusive discretion, authority and control respecting the administration and operation of the  Plan.  Section 4.06. Fees and Expenses.  An Administrator who is an employee of the  Company shall serve without compensation but shall be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses  incurred in his or her capacity as Administrator.  Compensation for services and expenses may  be paid in whole or in part by the Company, but to the extent that they are not paid by the  Company, such compensation shall be paid out of the Plan assets.  Section 4.07. Claims Procedure.  (a) Claims.  The Administrator shall make all determinations as to the right of  any person to a benefit under the Plan.  Any Participant, Spouse or other Beneficiary under this  Plan who believes that a benefit has been denied him or her hereunder (including, but not limited  to, the belief that the amount or form of payment is incorrect or that payment was made to the  incorrect beneficiary), who desires to determine or clarify his or her rights to future benefits  hereunder (including, but not limited to, any questions relating to the vesting schedules, break in  service rules, or a Participant’s beneficiary designation), or who believes an operational error has  occurred affecting his or her benefit hereunder (a “claimant”) must file, or have his or her duly  authorized representative file, a claim with the Administrator under this Section.  Any such claim  must be filed in writing stating the nature of the claim, the facts supporting the claim, the amount  claimed, and the name and address of the claimant.  The claim must be filed within one hundred  eighty (180) days of the date the claimant knew (or should have known with reasonable  diligence) of the existence of the facts giving rise to the claim.  Any claim filed after such date  shall be considered untimely.  The Administrator or its designee shall consider the claim and answer it in writing  stating whether the claim is granted or denied.  A determination of the claim shall be made  within ninety (90) days of receipt, provided that if, due to circumstances beyond the control of  the claim reviewer, an extension of time is needed to consider the claim, the claim reviewer shall  have up to one hundred eighty (180) days to consider the claim if the claim reviewer provides  written notice of the extension, the reasons therefor and the expected date of determination to the  claimant prior to the end of the original 90-day period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for  disability benefit claims, the determination shall be made within forty-five (45) days after the  Administrator’s receipt of the claim; provided that if, due to circumstances beyond the control of  the claim reviewer, an extension of time is necessary to consider the claim, the claim reviewer  shall have an additional thirty (30) days to consider the claim if the claim reviewer provides  written notice of the extension to the claimant before the end of the initial 45-day period; and  further provided that if, due to circumstances beyond the control of the claim reviewer, a further  extension of time is necessary to consider the claim, the claim reviewer shall have a second thirty  

 

30  4841-1404-2944.2  (30) day extension if the claim reviewer provides written notice to the claimant before the end of  the first 30-day extension.  In the case of any extension outlined in the preceding sentence, the  notice of extension shall include (i) an explanation for the circumstances requiring the extension,  (ii) the date by which the reviewer expects to render a decision, (iii) an explanation of the  standards upon which the entitlement to benefits is based, (iv) the unresolved issues preventing a  decision on the claim, and (v) the additional information needed to resolve those issues (the  claimant shall be afforded at least forty-five (45) days within which to provide the specified  information, during which time, the period for making the benefit determination will be tolled).  If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the claimant shall be furnished with a  written notice of such denial containing (i) the specific reason(s) for the denial, (ii) a specific  reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (iii) a description of any additional  material or information which it is necessary for the claimant to submit and an explanation of  why such material or information is necessary, and (iv) an explanation of the Plan’s appeal  procedure, including the claimant’s right to bring a suit under ERISA Section 502(a) following  an adverse decision on appeal.  (b) Appeals.  If a claimant wishes to appeal the denial of his or her claim, he  or she must mail a written notice of appeal to the Administrator certified, return receipt requested  within sixty (60) days (180 days for disability benefit claims) of his or her receipt of the written  denial.  In order that the Administrator may expeditiously decide such appeal, the written notice  of appeal should contain (i) a statement of the ground(s) for the appeal, (ii) a specific reference to  the Plan provisions on which the appeal is based, (iii) a statement of the argument(s) and  authority, (if any), supporting each ground for the appeal, and (iv) any other pertinent documents  or comments which the appellant desires to submit in support of his or her appeal.  The Administrator shall decide the claimant’s appeal within sixty (60) days of  receipt of the appeal; provided that, if due to circumstances beyond the Administrator’s control,  an extension of time is necessary in order to review the appeal, the Administrator shall have up  to one-hundred twenty (120) days to consider the appeal of the Administrator provides written  notice of the extension, the reason therefore and the expected date of determination to the  claimant prior to end of the original 60-day period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for disability  benefit claims the appellant’s appeal shall be decided within forty-five (45) days of the receipt of  the appeal; provided that, if due to circumstances beyond the Administrator’s control, an  extension of time is necessary in order to review the appeal, the Administrator shall have an  additional forty-five (45) days to consider the appeal if the Administrator provides, prior to the  termination of the initial forty-five (45) days, written notice to the claimant of such extension,  the reason therefor, and the expected date of determination.  Furthermore, the Administrator shall  adhere to the following guidelines when deciding appeals of disability benefit claims:  (i) the  Administrator shall not afford deference to the initial adverse benefit determination, (ii) if the  initial adverse benefit determination was based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, the  Administrator shall consult with a health care professional who has appropriate training and  experience in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment, (iii) the Administrator  shall provide for the identification of the medical or vocational experts whose advice was  obtained in connection with the adverse benefit determination, regardless of whether such advice  was relied upon, and (iv) any health care professional consulted for the appeal shall not be the  same health care professional consulted in the initial determination nor the subordinate of such  

 

31  4841-1404-2944.2  individual.  If the appeal is denied in whole or in part, the Administrator shall provide the  claimant with written notice of the denial which shall contain:  (i) the reasons for the decision  and reference to the Plan provisions on which the decision is based; (ii) a statement that the  claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies  of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim; and (iii) a  statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a).  If the  claimant fails to receive a written notice before the end of the applicable period, the claim shall  be deemed denied upon review.  (c) Limitations on Actions.  No claimant may commence a legal action or  proceeding for benefits until after the claims and appeals procedures of this section have been  exhausted and in no event after the earlier of (i) one hundred eighty (180) days after the claimant  receives, or is deemed to receive, notice of a denial of his or her claim upon review under  subsection (b), or (ii) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations under applicable  federal law.  Section 4.08. Communications.  All requests, claims, appeals, elections and  other communications to the Administrator shall be in writing and shall be made by transmitting  the same via the U.S. Mail, certified, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:  Regal Beloit America, Inc.  200 State Street  Beloit, Wisconsin 53511  Attention:  Retirement Plan Committee  Section 4.09. Agent for Service of Process.  The Administrator is an agent for  service of legal process with respect to matters pertaining to the Plan.  

 

32  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE V. CONTRIBUTIONS AND FUNDING POLICY  Section 5.01. Company Contribution.  The Company shall make annual  contributions which are at least equal to the minimum funding requirements prescribed by  ERISA and the Code, unless a funding waiver is approved.  The Company may make annual  contributions at a rate greater than that required by ERISA and the Code, but nothing herein shall  be interpreted to require the Company to contribute to the Plan at a rate greater than the  minimum prescribed by ERISA and the Code or to make any contributions following the  termination of the Plan, except and then only to the extent that ERISA or the Code may  specifically provide otherwise.  All contributions made to the Plan and all assets held for  investment under the Plan (and earnings thereon) shall be held in trust with a trustee appointed  by the Administrator.  Section 5.02. Funding Policy.  The funding policy of the Plan shall be as  follows:  (a) Benefits under the Plan shall be funded under a funding method  recommended by the actuary and shall be provided solely by means of Company contributions  plus the earnings from the investment of Plan assets.  The Administrator may authorize the  trustee to commingle and invest the assets accumulated under this Plan with the assets of any  other plan qualified under Code Section 401(a).  (b) Company contributions allocated to the Plan shall be invested in a manner  consistent with the investment objectives determined by the Administrator.  In establishing and  implementing the investment objectives of the Plan, the Administrator shall consider the  actuarial assumptions established by the actuary.  The Administrator shall communicate its  investment objectives and funding policy to any investment managers it selects.  Section 5.03. Exclusive Benefit.  All contributions made under the Plan shall be  paid to the trust and all property and funds of the trust allocable to the Plan, including income  from investments and from all other sources, shall be managed solely in the interest of  Participants, Spouses and Beneficiaries and for the exclusive purpose of:  (a) providing benefits to Participants, Spouses and Beneficiaries; and  (b) defraying reasonable expenses of administering the Plan.  

 

33  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE VI. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION  Section 6.01. Amendment.  Subject to the terms of any applicable bargaining  agreement, the Company shall have the right, by action of its officers, to modify, alter or amend  the Plan at any time and in any manner which does not cause any part of the assets of the Plan to  be used for, or diverted to, any purpose other than the exclusive benefit of the Participants,  Spouses or Beneficiaries.  Such amendment may be retroactively effective to the extent  determined by the Company to correct an operational error, to correct a drafting error, to supply  an omission or clarify an ambiguity, or to implement a change that is permitted by law to be  retroactively adopted, even if such amendment adversely affects the rights of a Participant or  other individual with an interest under the Plan.  Section 6.02. Termination.  Subject to the terms of any applicable bargaining  agreement, (a) the Company shall have the right to terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, by  action of the Board and (b) an Employer may terminate its participation in the Plan by action of  its board of directors.  Section 6.03. Priorities Upon Termination.  Upon complete termination of the  Plan or upon partial termination of the Plan, the accrued benefit of each Participant affected by  such termination or partial termination shall become fully vested to the extent then funded.  In  the event of a complete termination, the assets allocable to the Plan or to the portion of the Plan  terminated, shall be liquidated (after provision is made for the expenses of liquidation) by the  payment or provision for the payment of benefits in the manner determined by the Administrator  pursuant to ERISA and the Code.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, a  Participant shall have no recourse toward satisfaction of any benefit from other than the Plan  assets allocable to the termination or from the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.  Section 6.04. Non-Reversion of Assets.  In no event shall the Employers receive  any amount from the Plan, except that, (a) upon termination of the Plan, and notwithstanding any  other provision therein or herein, the Employers shall receive such amounts, if any, as may  remain after the satisfaction of all liabilities of the Plan and arising out of any variations between  actual requirements and expected actuarial requirements, (b) to the extent that any contributions  hereunder are made by a mistake of fact, such amount may, at the request of the Administrator,  be returned within one (1) year after it is made, and (c) all contributions hereto being hereby  expressly conditioned on the deductibility of the contribution under Code Section 404, to the  extent such deduction is disallowed it may, at the request of the Administrator, be returned  within one (1) year after the disallowance of such deduction.  

 

34  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE VII. GENERAL PROVISIONS  Section 7.01. Participants to Furnish Information.  Each Participant or other  person entitled to benefits under the Plan shall furnish to the Administrator such evidence, data  or information as the Administrator considers necessary or desirable in order to properly  administer the Plan.  Section 7.02. Non-Guarantee of Employment or Other Benefits.  Neither the  establishment of the Plan, nor any modification or amendment hereof, nor the payment of  benefits hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant or other person whomsoever any  legal or equitable right against the Employers, the Board, the Administrator, or the trustee, or the  right to payment of any benefits hereunder (unless the same shall be specifically provided herein)  or as giving any Employee the right to be retained in the service of the Employers or the  Affiliates.  Section 7.03. Responsibility for Co-Fiduciaries.  Neither the Company, the  Board, the Administrator nor any other person or corporation guarantees the Plan in any manner  against loss or depreciation of assets, and they shall not be liable for any act or failure to act  unless such is a breach of fiduciary duty under ERISA.  The Company, the members of the  Board, and the trustee shall not be responsible for any act or failure to act of the Administrator  except as may be otherwise specifically provided under ERISA.  The Administrator and the  trustee shall not be responsible for any act or failure to act of the Company, or the Board, except  as may be otherwise specifically provided under ERISA.  The Company, the Board, and the  Administrator shall not be responsible for any act or failure to act of the trustee, except as may  be otherwise specifically provided under ERISA.  Section 7.04. Mergers, Consolidations and Transfers of Plan Assets.  In the case  of any merger, consolidation with, or transfer of assets or liabilities to any other plan, each  Participant must be entitled (if the Plan then terminated) to receive a benefit immediately after  the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit he or she  would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer (if  the Plan then terminated) pursuant to the requirements of ERISA and the Code.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Plan terminates or there is a  spinoff of part of the Plan (in excess of the 3 percent of the plan assets permitted under Treasury  Regulation Section 1.414(1) 1(n)(2)) within five years following the date of any merger of  another plan into this Plan, and if the sum of the assets of this Plan after any such merger was  less than the sum of the present values of the accrued benefits (whether or not vested) of both  plans on a termination basis on the merger date, then a special schedule of benefits shall be  created from the necessary (as identified by an enrolled actuary) data maintained by the  Administrator and shall be inserted in and modify the allocation priorities set forth above in this  Section at the time of such termination or spinoff in accordance with Treasury Regulation  Sections 1.414(1) 1(e-j) and any applicable regulations of the Pension Benefit Guaranty  Corporation.  Further, following the merger of the Predecessor Plans with and into this Plan  effective December 31, 2012, there shall be established a schedule showing, with respect to the  

 

35  4841-1404-2944.2  Participants in each of the Predecessor Plans as of the date immediately preceding the merger,  the accrued benefit of each Participant as of such date, the amount of assets in each of the  Predecessor Plans which would have been allocated in satisfaction of such benefits if all such  plans had terminated on such date, and such other information as may be necessary to comply  with applicable regulations under Code Section 414(l).  In lieu of actually establishing such a  schedule, the Company may maintain records sufficient to enable such a schedule to be  established in the event of the termination, partial termination, or spin-off of assets of the Plan  within the five-year period following the applicable merger.  In the event the Plan is terminated or assets are spun-off, in whole or in part,  within the five year period following any such merger, then to the extent required under Code  Section 414(l), the assets of the Plan shall be allocated among Participants in accordance with the  priorities established under Section 4044 of ERISA, as modified in accordance with Section  1.414(l)-1 of the Income Tax Regulations.  Section 7.05. Spendthrift Clause.  No Participant, former Participant, Spouse, or  Beneficiary entitled to benefits hereunder shall have the right to transfer, assign, alienate,  anticipate, pledge or encumber any part of such benefits, nor shall such benefits, or any part of  the Plan assets or any contract from which such benefits are payable, be subject to seizure by  legal process by any creditor of such Participant, former Participant, Spouse, or Beneficiary.  In  the event that such Participant or other person entitled to such benefits, or such creditor thereof,  requests a division as hereinabove described, of any such benefit, the Administrator may, in its  discretion, direct the trustee to pay over to or apply on the behalf of such Participant, former  Participant, Spouse, or Beneficiary, all or any part of such benefits to which such person would  otherwise have been entitled hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall  recognize a qualified domestic relations order with respect to child support, alimony payments,  or marital property rights if such order contains sufficient information for the Administrator to  determine that it meets the applicable requirements of Code Section 414(p).  The Administrator  shall establish written procedures concerning the notification of interested parties and the  determination of the validity of such orders, which procedures may include, on a uniform and  nondiscriminatory basis, rules providing for the distribution of nonforfeitable benefits to the  alternate payee at an earlier time than benefits might otherwise be available to the Participant.   However, such procedures may not permit distribution be made to the alternate payee in a  payment form otherwise not available under the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant’s benefit hereunder may be fully  offset by the amount awarded the Plan in accordance with ERISA Section 206(d)(4).  Section 7.06. Restriction on Highly Compensated Participants’ and Former  Participants’ Benefits.  (a) Restriction of Benefits.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the  contrary, in the event the Plan is terminated, to the extent required by law the benefit of any  Participant or former Participant who is a highly compensated employee or highly compensated  former employee within the meaning of Code Section 414(4) shall be limited to a benefit that is  nondiscriminatory under Code Section 401(a)(4).  

 

36  4841-1404-2944.2  (b) Restriction on Distributions.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to  the contrary, the annual payments from the Plan to a Participant or former Participant described  in subsection (c) below shall not exceed an amount equal to the payments which would have  been made on behalf of such Participant or former Participant under a single life annuity which is  the actuarial equivalent of the sum of his or her  Accrued Benefit and other benefits under the  Plan.  (c) Participants and Former Participants Subject to Restriction.  The  Participants or former Participants who are affected by the restriction in subsection (b) above in  any one (1) year are limited to the twenty-five (25) highly compensated employees or highly  compensated former employees of the Company as defined in Code Section 414(q) with the  greatest compensation.  The Company reserves the right to amend this subsection (c) at any time.  (d) Restrictions Not Applicable.  The restrictions of subsection (b) shall not  apply if:  (i) After payment to a Participant or former Participant described in  subsection (c) above of all benefits, the value of Plan assets  equals or exceeds one hundred ten percent (110%) of the value of  the Plan’s current liabilities, as defined in Code Section  412(1)(7); or  (ii) The value of the benefits for a Participant or former Participant  described in subsection (c) above is less than one percent (1%) of  the value of the Plan’s current liabilities, as defined in Code  Section 412(1)(7).  For purposes of this subsection (d), the term “benefits” shall include any periodic  income, any withdrawal values payable to a living Participant or former Participant, and any  death benefits not provided for by insurance on the Participant’s or former Participant’s life.  Section 7.07. Maximum Benefit.  (a) The Plan is subject to the limitations on benefits and contributions  imposed by Code Section 415 which are incorporated herein by this reference, including the  definition of “compensation” in Code Section 415(c)(3).  Specifically, no annual benefit (as  defined in Code Section 415) or distribution under this Plan shall accrue or be made that would  exceed the limitations of Code Section 415, as such limits are adjusted from time to time.  The  limitation year shall be the Plan Year.  (b) For purposes of this Section 7.07 and the application of the Code Section  415 limitations, “compensation” for a terminated Participant shall include all of the following if  such payments are made by the later of 21⁄2 months after severance from employment or the end  of the limitation year that includes the date of severance from employment:  (i) regular compensation for services during the employee’s regular  working hours, or compensation for services outside the  employee’s regular working hours (such as overtime or shift  

 

37  4841-1404-2944.2  differential), commissions, bonuses, or other similar payments if  any of such payments would have been paid to the employee  prior to severance from employment if the employee had  continued in employment with the Company or an Affiliate;  (ii) payment for unused accrued bona fide sick, vacation or other  leave, but only if the employee would have been able to use the  leave if employment had continued; and  (iii) payments received from a nonqualified unfunded deferred  compensation plan, but only if the payment would have been  paid to the employee at the same time if the employee had  continued in employment with the Company or an Affiliate and  only to the extent the payment is includible in the employee’s  gross income.  No other post-severance compensation shall be included.  In addition, compensation in excess of  the limit in effect under Code Section 401(a)(17) for the limitation year shall not be considered.  (c) In the event that there are multiple defined benefit pension plans in which  a Participant participates, the following order shall determine the manner in which benefits are  restricted in order to satisfy these requirements:  benefits shall first be reduced under the defined  benefit pension plan in which the Participant’s accrued benefit is smaller to the extent necessary,  and then shall be reduced under the other defined benefit pension plan, to the extent necessary.  Section 7.08. Successors and Assigns.  The Plan shall be binding upon the  successors and assigns of the Company.  Section 7.09. Wisconsin Law Applies.  The Plan shall be construed and its  validity determined according to the laws of the state of Wisconsin to the extent not preempted  or superseded by ERISA or applicable federal law.  In case any provision of the Plan shall be  held illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining  parts of the Plan, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if said illegal and invalid  provisions had never been inserted herein.  Section 7.10. Top-Heavy Restrictions.  (a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, in accordance with  Code Section 416, if the Plan is a top-heavy plan for any Plan Year, then the provisions of this  Section shall be applicable.  The Plan is “top-heavy” for a Plan Year if as of the last day of the  preceding Plan Year (the Plan’s “determination date”), the total present value of the accrued  benefits of key employees (as defined in Code Section 416(i)(1) and applicable regulations)  exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the total present value of the accrued benefits of all employees  under the Plan (excluding those of former key employees) (as such amounts are computed  pursuant to Section 416(g) and applicable regulations using the interest and actuarial  assumptions used for the actuarial funding report for the valuation date or, if none, the  immediately preceding report) unless the Plan can be aggregated with other plans maintained by  the applicable controlled group in either a permissive or required aggregation group and such  

 

38  4841-1404-2944.2  group as a whole is not top-heavy.  In addition, the Plan is top-heavy if it is part of a required  aggregation group which is top-heavy.  Any plan of a controlled group may be included in a  permissive aggregation group as long as together they satisfy the Code Sections 401(a)(4) or 410  discrimination requirements.  The present values of aggregated plans are determined separately  as of each plan’s determination date and the results aggregated for the determination dates which  fall in the same calendar year.  A “controlled group” for purposes of this Section includes any  group of employers aggregated pursuant to Code Sections 414(b), (c) or (m).  The calculation of  the present value shall be done as of a valuation date which for a defined contribution plan is the  determination date and for a defined benefit plan is the date as of which funding calculations are  generally made within the twelve (12) month period ending on the determination date.  In  addition, the present values of accrued benefits and the amounts of account balances of an  employee as of the determination date shall be increased by the distributions made with respect  to the employee under the Plan and any plan aggregated with the Plan under Code Section  416(g)(2) during the 1-year period ending on the determination date.  The preceding sentence  shall also apply to distributions under a terminated plan which, had it not been terminated, would  have been aggregated with the Plan under Code Section 416(g)(2)(A)(i).  In the case of a  distribution made for a reason other than severance from employment, death, or disability, this  provision shall be applied by substituting “5-year period” for “1-year period.”  Finally, for  purposes of this Section 7.10(a), the accrued benefits and accounts of any individual who has not  performed services for the employer during the 1-year period ending on the determination date  shall not be taken into account.  (b) If the Plan is top-heavy in a Plan Year, the maximum annual  compensation utilized herein for any employee for such year shall be two hundred thousand  dollars ($200,000) (or such higher amount permitted pursuant to applicable regulations due to  cost of living increases), provided that no benefit accrued as of the determination date shall be  diminished on account of this provision.  (c) If the Plan is top-heavy in a Plan Year, the vesting schedule shall  automatically be amended for any employee employed on the first day of such year or thereafter  so that the vested percentage for employer-derived benefits is equal to the greater of the vesting  provided under other provisions of the Plan or the following schedule:  Years of Service Nonforfeitable Percentage     1 0%  2 20%  3 40%  4 60%  5 80%  6 or more 100%     where “years of service” means the years credited for vesting purposes under the Plan or, if  greater, the years required to be counted under Code Section 411 and applicable regulations  thereto.  If the Plan thereafter ceases to be top-heavy for a Plan Year, the vesting schedule above  shall be disregarded and the original schedule applied, except with respect to any Participant  with five (5) or more years of service and except that no Participant’s vested percentage as of the  

 

39  4841-1404-2944.2  end of the prior year shall be decreased.  Any non-vested Participant who acquires a vested  interest in the employer-derived benefit by operation of the amended vesting schedule shall not  be subject thereafter to a cancellation of service.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the  contrary, the amendment of the vesting schedule pursuant to this subsection shall not affect the  calculation of benefit amounts or the determination of benefit commencement dates hereunder.  (d) If a defined benefit plan is top-heavy in a Plan Year and no defined  contribution plan is maintained, the employer-derived accrued benefit on a life only basis  commencing at the normal retirement age of each non-key employee shall be at least equal to a  percentage of the highest average compensation for five (5) consecutive years, excluding any  years after such Plan permanently ceases to be top-heavy, such percentage being the lesser of (i)  twenty percent (20%) or (ii) two percent (2%) times the years of service after December 31,  1983, in which a Plan Year ends in which a Plan is top-heavy.  For purposes of this Section  7.10(d), in determining years of service, any service with the Employer shall be disregarded to  the extent such service occurs during a Plan Year when the Plan benefits (within the meaning of  Code Section 410(b)) no key employees or former key employees.  If the controlled group  maintains both a defined contribution plan and a defined benefit plan which cover the same non- key employee, such employee will only be entitled to the defined benefit plan minimum.  Section 7.11. Restrictions Related to Plan Funding.  (a) Limitations Applicable If the Plan’s AFTAP Is Less Than 80 Percent, But  Not Less Than 60 Percent.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, if the Plan’s  adjusted funding target attainment percentage for a Plan Year is less than 80 percent (or would  be less than 80 percent to the extent described in subsection (a)(ii) below) but is not less than 60  percent, then the limitations set forth in this subsection (a) apply.  (i) 50 Percent Limitation on Single Sum Payments, Other  Accelerated Forms of Distribution, and Other Prohibited  Payments.  A Participant or beneficiary is not permitted to elect,  and the Plan shall not pay, a single sum payment or other  optional form of benefit that includes a prohibited payment with  an annuity starting date (as defined in subsection (h) hereof) on  or after the applicable section 436 measurement date, and the  Plan shall not make any payment for the purchase of an  irrevocable commitment from an insurer to pay benefits or any  other payment or transfer that is a prohibited payment, unless the  present value of the portion of the benefit that is being paid in a  prohibited payment does not exceed the lesser of:  (A) 50 percent of the present value of the benefit payable in the  optional form of benefit that includes the prohibited  payment; or  (B) 100 percent of the PBGC maximum benefit guarantee  amount (as defined in Section 1.436-1(d)(3)(iii)(C) of the  Treasury Regulations).  

 

40  4841-1404-2944.2  The limitation set forth in this subsection (a)(i) does not apply to  any payment of a benefit which under Code Section 411(a)(11)  may be immediately distributed without the consent of the  Participant.  If an optional form of benefit that is otherwise  available under the terms of the Plan is not available to a  Participant or beneficiary as of the annuity starting date because of  the application of the requirements of this subsection (a)(i), the  Participant or beneficiary is permitted to elect to bifurcate the  benefit into unrestricted and restricted portions (as described in  Section 1.436-1(d)(3)(iii)(D) of the Treasury Regulations).  The  Participant or beneficiary may also elect any other optional form of  benefit otherwise available under the Plan at that annuity starting  date that would satisfy the 50 percent/PBGC maximum benefit  guarantee amount limitation described in this subsection (a)(i), or  may elect to defer the benefit in accordance with any general right  to defer commencement of benefits under the Plan.  (ii) Plan Amendments Increasing Liability for Benefits.  No  amendment to the Plan that has the effect of increasing liabilities  of the Plan by reason of increases in benefits, establishment of new  benefits, changing the rate of benefit accrual, or changing the rate  at which benefits become nonforfeitable shall take effect in a Plan  Year if the adjusted funding target attainment percentage for the  Plan Year is:  (A) Less than 80 percent; or  (B) 80 percent or more, but would be less than 80 percent if the  benefits attributable to the amendment were taken into  account in determining the adjusted funding target  attainment percentage.  The limitation set forth in this subsection (a)(ii) does not apply to  any amendment to the Plan that provides a benefit increase under a  Plan formula that is not based on compensation, provided that the  rate of such increase does not exceed the contemporaneous rate of  increase in the average wages of Participants covered by the  amendment.  (b) Limitations Applicable If the Plan’s AFTAP Is Less Than 60 Percent.   Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, if the Plan’s adjusted funding target attainment  percentage for a Plan Year is less than 60 percent (or would be less than 60 percent to the extent  described in subsection (b)(ii) below), then the limitations in this subsection (b) apply.  (i) Single Sums, Other Accelerated Forms of Distribution, and Other  Prohibited Payments Not Permitted.  A Participant or beneficiary is  not permitted to elect, and the Plan shall not pay, a single sum  

 

41  4841-1404-2944.2  payment or other optional form of benefit that includes a  prohibited payment with an annuity starting date on or after the  applicable section 436 measurement date, and the Plan shall not  make any payment for the purchase of an irrevocable commitment  from an insurer to pay benefits or any other payment or transfer  that is a prohibited payment.  The limitation set forth in this  subsection (b)(i) does not apply to any payment of a benefit which  under Code Section 411(a)(11) may be immediately distributed  without the consent of the Participant.  (ii) Shutdown Benefits and Other Unpredictable Contingent Event  Benefits Not Permitted to Be Paid.  An unpredictable contingent  event benefit with respect to an unpredictable contingent event  occurring during a Plan Year shall not be paid if the adjusted  funding target attainment percentage for the Plan Year is:  (A) Less than 60 percent; or  (B) 60 percent or more, but would be less than 60 percent if the  adjusted funding target attainment percentage were  redetermined applying an actuarial assumption that the  likelihood of occurrence of the unpredictable contingent  event during the Plan Year is 100 percent.  (iii) Benefit Accruals Frozen.  Benefit accruals under the Plan shall  cease as of the applicable section 436 measurement date.  In  addition, if the Plan is required to cease benefit accruals under this  subsection (b)(iii), then the Plan is not permitted to be amended in  a manner that would increase the liabilities of the Plan by reason of  an increase in benefits or establishment of new benefits.  (c) Limitations Applicable If the Plan Sponsor Is In Bankruptcy.   Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, a Participant or beneficiary is not permitted to  elect, and the Plan shall not pay, a single sum payment or other optional form of benefit that  includes a prohibited payment with an annuity starting date that occurs during any period in  which the Plan sponsor is a debtor in a case under title 11, United States Code, or similar Federal  or State law, except for payments made within a Plan Year with an annuity starting date that  occurs on or after the date on which the Plan’s enrolled actuary certifies that the Plan’s adjusted  funding target attainment percentage for that Plan Year is not less than 100 percent.  In addition,  during such period in which the Plan sponsor is a debtor, the Plan shall not make any payment  for the purchase of an irrevocable commitment from an insurer to pay benefits or any other  payment or transfer that is a prohibited payment, except for payments that occur on a date within  a Plan Year that is on or after the date on which the Plan’s enrolled actuary certifies that the  Plan’s adjusted funding target attainment percentage for that Plan Year is not less than 100  percent.  The limitation set forth in this subsection (c) does not apply to any payment of a benefit  which under Code Section 411(a)(11) may be immediately distributed without the consent of the  Participant.  

 

42  4841-1404-2944.2  (d) Provisions Applicable After Limitations Cease to Apply.  (i) Resumption of Prohibited Payments.  If a limitation on  prohibited payments under subsection (a)(i), subsection (b)(i), or  subsection (c) above applied to the Plan as of a section 436  measurement date, but that limit no longer applies to the Plan as  of a later section 436 measurement date, then that limitation does  not apply to benefits with annuity starting dates that are on or  after that later section 436 measurement date.  (ii) Resumption of Benefit Accruals.  If a limitation on benefit  accruals under subsection (b)(iii) above applied to the Plan as of  a section 436 measurement date, but that limitation no longer  applies to the Plan as of a later section 436 measurement date,  then benefit accruals shall resume prospectively and that  limitation does not apply to benefit accruals that are based on  service on or after that later section 436 measurement date,  except as otherwise provided under the Plan.  The Plan shall  comply with the rules relating to partial years of participation  and the prohibition on double proration under Department of  Labor regulation 29 CFR § 2530.204-2(c) and (d).  (iii) Shutdown and Other Unpredictable Contingent Event Benefits.   If an unpredictable contingent event benefit with respect to an  unpredictable contingent event that occurs during the Plan Year  is not permitted to be paid after the occurrence of the event  because of the limitation of subsection (b)(ii) above, but is  permitted to be paid later in the same Plan Year (as a result of  additional contributions or pursuant to the enrolled actuary’s  certification of the adjusted funding target attainment percentage  for the Plan Year that meets the requirements of Section 1.436- 1(g)(5)(ii)(B) of the Treasury Regulations), then that  unpredictable contingent event benefit shall be paid, retroactive  to the period that benefit would have been payable under the  terms of the Plan (determined without regard to subsection  (b)(ii)).  If the unpredictable contingent event benefit does not  become payable during the Plan Year in accordance with the  preceding sentence, then the Plan is treated as if it does not  provide for that benefit.  (iv) Treatment of Plan Amendments That Do Not Take Effect.  If a  Plan amendment does not take effect as of the effective date of  the amendment because of the limitation of subsection (a)(ii) or  subsection (b)(iii), but is permitted to take effect later in the same  Plan Year (as a result of additional contributions or pursuant to  the enrolled actuary’s certification of the adjusted funding target  attainment percentage for the Plan Year that meets the  

 

43  4841-1404-2944.2  requirements of Section 1.436-1(g)(5)(ii)(C) of the Treasury  Regulations), then the Plan amendment must automatically take  effect as of the first day of the Plan Year (or, if later, the original  effective date of the amendment).  If the Plan amendment cannot  take effect during the same Plan Year, then it shall be treated as  if it were never adopted, unless the Plan amendment provides  otherwise.  (e) Notice Requirement.  See Section 101(j) of ERISA for rules requiring the  Plan administrator of a single employer defined benefit pension plan to provide a written notice  to Participants and beneficiaries within 30 days after certain specified dates if the Plan has  become subject to a limitation described in subsection (a)(i), subsection (b), or subsection (c)  above.  (f) Methods to Avoid or Terminate Benefit Limitations.  See Code Section  436(b)(2), (c)(2), (e)(2), and (f) and Section 1.436-1(f) of the Treasury Regulations for rules  relating to employer contributions and other methods to avoid or terminate the application of the  limitations set forth in subsections (a) through (c) for a Plan Year.  In general, the methods a Plan  sponsor may use to avoid or terminate one or more of the benefit limitations under subsections  (a) through (c) for a Plan Year include employer contributions and elections to increase the  amount of Plan assets which are taken into account in determining the adjusted funding target  attainment percentage, making an employer contribution that is specifically designated as a  current year contribution that is made to avoid or terminate application of certain of the benefit  limitations, or providing security to the Plan.  (g) Special Rules.  (i) Rules of Operation for Periods Prior to and After Certification of  Plan’s Adjusted Funding Target Attainment Percentage.  (A) In General.  Code Section 436(h) and Section 1.436-1(h) of  the Treasury Regulations set forth a series of presumptions  that apply (1) before the Plan’s enrolled actuary issues a  certification of the Plan’s adjusted funding target  attainment percentage for the Plan Year and (2) if the  Plan’s enrolled actuary does not issue a certification of the  Plan’s adjusted funding target attainment percentage for the  Plan Year before the first day of the 10th month of the Plan  Year (or if the Plan’s enrolled actuary issues a range  certification for the Plan Year pursuant to Section 1.436- 1(h)(4)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations but does not issue a  certification of the specific adjusted funding target  attainment percentage for the Plan by the last day of the  Plan Year).  For any period during which a presumption  under Code Section 436(h) and Section 1.436-1(h) of the  Treasury Regulations applies to the Plan, the limitations  under subsections (a) through (c) are applied to the Plan as  

 

44  4841-1404-2944.2  if the adjusted funding target attainment percentage for the  Plan Year were the presumed adjusted funding target  attainment percentage determined under the rules of Code  Section 436(h) and Section 1.436-1(h)(1), (2), or (3) of the  Treasury Regulations.  These presumptions are set forth in  subsection (g)(i)(B) though (D).  (B) Presumption of Continued Underfunding Beginning First  Day of Plan Year.  If a limitation under subsection (a), (b),  or (c) applied to the Plan on the last day of the preceding  Plan Year, then, commencing on the first day of the current  Plan Year and continuing until the Plan’s enrolled actuary  issues a certification of the adjusted funding target  attainment percentage for the Plan for the current Plan  Year, or, if earlier, the date subsection (g)(i)(C) or  subsection (g)(i)(D) applies to the Plan:  (1) The adjusted funding target attainment percentage  of the Plan for the current Plan Year is presumed to  be the adjusted funding target attainment percentage  in effect on the last day of the preceding Plan Year;  and  (2) The first day of the current Plan Year is a section  436 measurement date.  (C) Presumption of Underfunding Beginning First Day of 4th  Month.  If the Plan’s enrolled actuary has not issued a  certification of the adjusted funding target attainment  percentage for the Plan Year before the first day of the 4th  month of the Plan Year and the Plan’s adjusted funding  target attainment percentage for the preceding Plan Year  was either at least 60 percent but less than 70 percent or at  least 80 percent but less than 90 percent, or is described in  Section 1.436-1(h)(2)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations, then,  commencing on the first day of the 4th month of the current  Plan Year and continuing until the Plan’s enrolled actuary  issues a certification of the adjusted funding target  attainment percentage for the Plan for the current Plan  Year, or, if earlier, the date Section 7.11(g)(i)(D) applies to  the Plan:  (1) The adjusted funding target attainment percentage  of the Plan for the current Plan Year is presumed to  be the Plan’s adjusted funding target attainment  percentage for the preceding Plan Year reduced by  10 percentage points; and  

 

45  4841-1404-2944.2  (2) The first day of the 4th month of the current Plan  Year is a section 436 measurement date.  (D) Presumption of Underfunding On and After First Day of  10th Month.  If the Plan’s enrolled actuary has not issued a  certification of the adjusted funding target attainment  percentage for the Plan Year before the first day of the 10th  month of the Plan Year (or if the Plan’s enrolled actuary  has issued a range certification for the Plan Year pursuant  to Section 1.436-1(h)(4)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations but  has not issued a certification of the specific adjusted  funding target attainment percentage for the Plan by the last  day of the Plan Year), then, commencing on the first day of  the 10th month of the current Plan Year and continuing  through the end of the Plan Year:  (1) The adjusted funding target attainment percentage  of the Plan for the current Plan Year is presumed to  be less than 60 percent; and  (2) The first day of the 10th month of the current Plan  Year is a section 436 measurement date.  (ii) New Plans, Plan Termination, Certain Frozen Plans, and Other  Special Rules.  (A) First 5 Plan Years.  The limitations in subsection (a)(ii),  subsection (b)(ii), and subsection (b)(iii) do not apply to a  new Plan for the first 5 Plan Years of the Plan, determined  under the rules of Code Section 436(i) and Section 1.436- 1(a)(3)(i) of the Treasury Regulations.  (B) Plan Termination.  The limitations on prohibited payments  in subsection (a)(i), subsection (b)(i), and subsection (c) do  not apply to prohibited payments that are made to carry out  the termination of the Plan in accordance with applicable  law.  Any other limitations under this section of the Plan do  not cease to apply as a result of termination of the Plan.  (C) Exception to Limitations on Prohibited Payments Under  Certain Frozen Plans.  The limitations on prohibited  payments set forth in subsections (a)(i), (b)(i), and (c) do  not apply for a Plan Year if the terms of the Plan, as in  effect for the period beginning on September 1, 2005, and  continuing through the end of the Plan Year, provide for no  benefit accruals with respect to any Participants.  This  Section (g)(ii)(C) shall cease to apply as of the date any  

 

46  4841-1404-2944.2  benefits accrue under the Plan or the date on which a Plan  amendment that increases benefits takes effect.  (D) Special Rules Relating to Unpredictable Contingent Event  Benefits and Plan Amendments Increasing Benefit  Liability.  During any period in which none of the  presumptions under subsection (g)(i) apply to the Plan and  the Plan’s enrolled actuary has not yet issued a certification  of the Plan’s adjusted funding target attainment percentage  for the Plan Year, the limitations under subsection (a)(ii)  and subsection (b)(ii) shall be based on the inclusive  presumed adjusted funding target attainment percentage for  the Plan, calculated in accordance with the rules of Section  1.436-1(g)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations.  (iii) Special Rules Under PRA 2010.  (A) Payments Under Social Security Leveling Options.  For  purposes of determining whether the limitations under  subsection (a)(i) or (b)(i) apply to payments under a social  security leveling option, within the meaning of Code  Section 436(j)(3)(C)(i), the adjusted funding target  attainment percentage for a Plan Year shall be determined  in accordance with the “Special Rule for Certain Years”  under Code Section 436(j)(3) and any Treasury Regulations  or other published guidance thereunder issued by the  Internal Revenue Service.  (B) Limitation on Benefit Accruals.  For purposes of  determining whether the accrual limitation under  subsection (b)(iii) applies to the Plan, the adjusted funding  target attainment percentage for a Plan Year shall be  determined in accordance with the “Special Rule for  Certain Years” under Code Section 436(j)(3) (except as  provided under section 203(b) of the Preservation of  Access to Care for Medicare Beneficiaries and Pension  Relief Act of 2010, if applicable).

The limitations imposed by this  section of the Plan shall be interpreted and administered in  accordance with Code Section and Section 1.436-1 of the  Treasury Regulations.  (h) Definitions.

(a) Death Benefits.  If a Participant dies while performing qualified military  service, the beneficiaries of such Participant shall be entitled to the additional death benefits, if  any (other than benefit accruals relating to the period of qualified military service) that would  have been available had the Participant resumed employment with the Company immediately  prior to the date of his or her death and thereafter terminated from employment as a result of  death.  For purposes of this Section, “qualified military service” is defined as service in the  uniformed services of the United States for which an individual has reemployment rights with  the Company under chapter 43 of title 38 of the United States Code.  (b) Differential Pay.  In accordance with the provisions of Code Section  414(u), during the period a Participant on military leave is receiving differential wage payments  (as defined in Code Section 3401(h)(2)), to the extent required by the Code, such Participant  shall be treated as remaining in the employment of the Company and such differential wage  payments shall be considered compensation for purposes of applying the provisions of the Code  to the Plan.

Section 2.08. Transfer to Employment with an Affiliate.  If a Participant is  transferred by an Employer to employment with an Affiliate which is not an Employer, such  individual shall remain a Participant in this Part of the Plan so long as he or she otherwise  continues to meet the requirements of an Employee (without regard to the requirement that  employment be with an Employer) and service with such Affiliate shall count as Benefit Service  under the Plan, provided that no additional benefits shall accrue on or after January 1, 2009 for a  Participant who had less than twenty-five (25) years of Vesting Service as of December 31,  2008.  Section 2.09. Termination.

Section 3.05. Death Benefits.  (a) If a Participant has accrued at least five (5) years of Vesting Service or has  attained age sixty-five (65), his or her Spouse shall be entitled to a death benefit in the event that  the Participant dies after the Effective Date and prior to the Participant’s termination of  employment from the Employer and its Affiliates.  The Spouse of a Participant who has  terminated employment from the Employer and its Affiliates after attaining age fifty-five (55)  and completing at least ten (10) years of Vesting Service shall be entitled to a death benefit in the  event that the Participant dies after the Effective Date and prior to his or her Annuity Starting  Date.  The death benefit payable to the Spouse shall be a monthly amount equal to fifty  percent (50%) of the retirement benefit the Participant would have been entitled to receive if he  or she had retired on the date of his or her death and had begun to receive benefits as of the date  the Spouse’s benefit is to begin, and had elected a life only annuity, provided that the early  commencement reduction factor shall be no greater than sixty percent (60%).  The special  surviving spouse benefit under this subsection (a) shall be payable during the life of the Spouse  

 

  A-11  4841-1404-2944.2  commencing with any month beginning with the month following the death of the Participant  and no later than the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, as the Spouse may elect.

Each Participant with a Profit Sharing  Benefit may name, or change the name of, his or her Beneficiary who will receive any death  benefits payable hereunder.

A lump sum payment equal to the  Participant’s Profit Sharing Benefit shall be payable to the  Participant at his or her direction on the Annuity Starting Date,  and an annuity benefit actuarially reduced to reflect the lump  sum payment shall be payable in the form of an optional annuity  hereunder on the Annuity Starting Date.

The Profit Sharing Benefit shall be paid at  the Participant’s direction in annual installments, commencing  on the Annuity Starting Date, over a period determined by the  Participant not to exceed ten years.  Installments shall generally  be substantially equivalent amounts, but the Participant may elect  to receive part of the Profit Sharing Benefit in an initial lump  sum amount on the Annuity Starting Date.  During any period of  installment payments, interest shall continue to be credited under  the provisions of Section 1.01(l) of this Part on the outstanding  balance until such entire amount has been paid to the Participant  or his or her designated Beneficiary.  (c) If a Participant who is eligible for a Profit Sharing Benefit elects the Lump  Sum and Annuity or Installments and Annuity optional forms of payment as described in Section  4.02(b) of this Part, payment of the Participant’s annuity benefit shall commence on the same  Annuity Starting Date on which the Participant receives or commences payment of his or her  Profit Sharing Benefit under Section 4.02(b) of this Part.

  A-16  4841-1404-2944.2  SCHEDULE A-2  The Accrued Benefit of Participants whose employment was terminated on or  after January 1, 1982 and prior to January 1, 1989 shall be a monthly amount equal to:  (i) the difference of  (A) 1.14% of his or her Average Monthly Compensation, multiplied by  his or her years of Benefit Service to a maximum of forty-five (45)  years; less  (B) 1.43% of his or her Social Security Benefit; multiplied by his or  her years of Benefit Service to a maximum percentage of 63.2%;  less  (ii) any Other Benefits.  For this purpose, “Average Monthly Compensation” is determined according to  Section 1.01(b) of this Part, without regard to the second paragraph thereof.  “Social Security Benefit” means the estimated monthly primary old-age insurance  benefit available at the later of the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date or Severance from  Service, determined under the provisions of the federal Social Security Act in effect on the date  of the Participant’s Severance from Service.

In  the Administrator’s discretion, covered earnings for years prior to termination may be estimated  on the basis of uniform assumptions consistently applied by the Administrator to all Participants  in like circumstances unless the Participant furnishes evidence satisfactory to the Administrator  which shows such covered earnings to have been actually different than the amount estimated.   Once the monthly amount of a Participant’s Social Security Benefit has been determined as  hereinabove specified, such amount shall not thereafter be subject to adjustment except for  arithmetical errors in the computation thereof and shall, for all purposes of the Plan, be assumed  to remain as thus finally computed regardless of any subsequent fact, event or occurrence which  might cause a change or an adjustment in the monthly amount thereof actually available to the  Participant such as, but not limited to, continuation in covered employment under said Act  following commencement of his or her insurance benefit payments thereunder or increases in the  insurance benefit amounts available thereunder by reason of automatic and/or legislated  increases thereunder at any time subsequent to such Participant’s Severance from Service.   Written notice of a Participant’s rights regarding the calculation of the earnings history will be  given by the Administrator at such times and in such manner as may be prescribed under the  Code.  

 

  A-17  4841-1404-2944.2  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant who was a participant in a Prior Plan  who has at least ten (10) years of Vesting Service shall have an Accrued Benefit equal to $7.50  times his or her years of Benefit Service or an amount equal to the Actuarial Equivalent of his or  her Profit Sharing Benefit, whichever is greater, if such accrued benefit exceeds the accrued  benefit under the foregoing formula.

(c) “Compensation” means an Employee’s wages, salary, fees for professional  service and other amounts received (without regard to whether or not an amount is paid in cash)  for personal services actually rendered in the course of employment with the Participating  Employer to the extent that the amounts are includable in gross income and reported on the  Employee’s Form W-2 for purposes of federal income tax withholding for the determination  period, adjusted as follows:  (i) Including elective deferrals (as defined in Code Section  402(g)(3)) and any amount that is contributed or deferred by the  Participating Employer at the election of the Employee and not  includable in the gross income of the Employee by reason of  Code Sections 125 or 132(f)(4); and  (ii) Excluding (A) reimbursements or other expense allowances, (B)  fringe benefits (cash and noncash), (C) moving expenses, (D)  deferred compensation (unless otherwise specifically included)  and (E) welfare benefits.  

 

  E-3  4841-1404-2944.2  Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, Compensation earned after  April 30, 2011 shall not be counted under this Part of the Plan for the purposes of benefit  accruals.  For purposes of this subsection, the “determination period” is a Plan Year, unless  any other section of this Part of the Plan explicitly provides for the determination of  Compensation over an applicable period other than the Plan Year.  The annual Compensation of each Participant in any Plan Year shall not exceed  the annual compensation limit of Code Section 401(a)(17), as adjusted for increases in the cost of  living in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(17)(B).  The cost-of-living adjustment in effect  for a calendar year applies for the Plan Year that begins with or within such calendar year.  If the  Plan determines Compensation for a determination period that is less than 12 consecutive  months, the annual compensation limit is multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the  number of months in the short Plan Year, and the denominator of which is 12.  The annual Compensation of each Participant taken into account in determining  benefit accruals in any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2001 shall not exceed $200,000,  as adjusted as described above.

Compensation paid within the later of 21⁄2 months after severance from  Employment (within the meaning of Section 1.415(a)-1(f)(5) of the Treasury regulations) or the  end of the limitation year that includes the date of severance from Employment shall be included  in Compensation if the payments, absent the severance from Employment, would have been paid  to the employee while the Employee continued in Employment with the Participating Employer  and are regular compensation for services during the Employee’s regular working hours,  compensation for services outside the Employee’s regular working hours, or other similar  circumstances.  Payments not described above shall not be considered Compensation if paid after  severance from Employment, even if paid within the time period referenced above.  (d) “Covered Compensation” means the average (without indexing) of the  taxable wage bases in effect for each calendar year during the 35-year period ending with the last  day of the calendar year in which the Participant attains (or will attain) social security retirement  age (as defined in Code Section 415(b)(8)).  In determining a Participant’s Covered  Compensation for a Plan Year, the taxable wage base for all calendar years beginning after the  first day of the Plan Year shall be assumed to be the same as the taxable wage base in effect as of  the beginning of the Plan Year for which the determination is being made.

(i) “Final Average Compensation” means a Participant’s average annual  Compensation paid to the Participant during the 60 consecutive months of the final 120 months  of the Participant’s Employment that produce the highest average.  If a Participant has less than  60 months of Employment, the average shall be taken over his or her total period of  Employment.

No more than 501 Hours of Service will be credited for  any single continuous period (whether or not such period occurs  in a single Plan Year or other computation period).

An Employee who is not compensated on an hourly basis shall be credited with  190 Hours of Service for each calendar month in which he or she would be credited with one or  more Hours of Service if he or she were compensated on an hourly basis.

(k) “Normal Retirement Date” means the first day of the month coincident  with or next following a Participant’s sixty-fifth (65th) birthday.  (l) “Participating Employer” means Unico, Inc. and any other Affiliate which  had adopted this Part of the Plan prior to April 30, 2011, which was the date that this Part of the  Plan was frozen.

Such period begins on the date the  Employee retires, quits or is discharged, or if earlier, the 12-month anniversary of the date on  which the Employee was otherwise first absent from service.  In the case of an individual who is  absent from work for maternity or paternity reasons, the 12-consecutive month period beginning  on the first anniversary of the first date of such absence shall not constitute a break in service.   For purposes of this paragraph, an absence from work for maternity or paternity reasons means  an absence (i) by reason of the pregnancy of the individual, (ii) by reason of the birth of a child  of the individual, (iii) by reason of the placement of a child with the individual in connection  with the adoption of such child by such individual, or (iv) for purposes of caring for such child  for a period beginning immediately following such birth or placement.

The Severance from Service Date of an Employee who is  absent from service beyond the first anniversary of the first day of absence by reason of  maternity or paternity absence is the second anniversary of the first day of such absence.  For  purposes of this paragraph, an absence from work for maternity or paternity reasons means an  absence (i) by reason of the pregnancy of the individual, (ii) by reason of the birth of a child of  the individual, (iii) by reason of the placement of a child with the individual in connection with  the adoption of such child by such individual, or (iv) for purposes of caring for such child for a  period beginning immediately following such birth or placement.

The monthly benefit will be an amount equal to 50% of the monthly benefit to which the  Employee would have otherwise been entitled pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Master Plan  Document if the benefit were paid in form of a single life annuity commencing at the later of the  date of death or the date the Employee would have been first eligible for a retirement or deferred  vested benefit, provided that the benefit payments to the surviving Spouse shall be reduced by  1% for each full year exceeding 10 years by which the Employee’s Spouse is younger than the  Employee.  The surviving Spouse benefit shall commence on the latest of:  (i) the month following the Employee’s or disability retiree’s date of  death,  (ii) the month following the date the Employee would have been first  eligible for a retirement or a deferred vested benefit, or

Benefit payments under this Section shall cease with the death of the surviving  Spouse.  Section 3.05. Supplemental Allowance.  Any provision to the contrary herein  notwithstanding:  (a) Employees retiring with 30 or more years of Credited Service shall be  entitled to a monthly supplemental allowance in the amount of $150.00 upon attaining age 57  which is to be added to the monthly benefit calculated in accordance with Section 3.01 of this  Part; provided that such supplemental allowance shall not be paid under the Plan if it is payable  by the Prior Plan.  (b) If the monthly benefit payable under Section 3.01 of this Part is in the  form of a survivor annuity, then the amount of supplemental allowance calculated in this Section  shall be added to the Employee’s benefit without regard to the actuarial reduction; however, such  supplemental allowance shall not be payable to a surviving Spouse.  (c) Payment of the supplemental allowance shall cease on the first occurrence  of (i) the first day of the month following the Employee’s death, or (ii) the date the Employee  first becomes eligible for old age benefits under the then applicable Federal Social Security Act,  or (iii) the date on which the disability commences for Social Security disability insurance  purposes and the Employee is entitled to receive disability benefits under the then applicable  Federal Security Social Security Act, regardless of the date of the decision by the Social Security  Administration.  Upon cessation of the supplemental allowance, the Employee will be eligible  only for the monthly benefit otherwise payable.  Section 3.06. Additional Benefits.  Any Employee who retires under Section  2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 2.05 or 2.06 of this Part shall be paid an additional monthly amount (hereinafter  “Additional Benefit”) equal to that required at retirement (not to exceed $18.50 per month per  individual or $37.00 per month for retired Employee and Spouse) to purchase Medicare  coverage; provided that such Additional Benefit shall not be paid under this Part of the Plan if it  is payable by the Prior Plan.  The Additional Benefit will commence with the first calendar  month following the month in which the retired Employee or Spouse, respectively, becomes  eligible for Medicare coverage by virtue of age or disability.  Payment of additional benefits  shall be subject to the following limitations:  (a) Payment to the Employee of the Spouse’s Additional Benefit shall cease  the first of the month following the death of the Spouse.  (b) Payment of the Spouse’s Additional Benefit shall cease upon the death of  the Employee unless the Spouse is eligible to receive a survivor benefit under Section 3.04 of  this Part or as a result of being a contingent annuitant.  

 

  F-11  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE IV. PAYMENT OF BENEFITS  Section 4.01. Transfers and Reemployment.  (a) Out of Employee Status:  If either (x) an Employee is transferred to or (y)  a terminated former Employee is reemployed in non-Employee status with a Participating  Employer or an Affiliate, the benefits hereunder shall be determined as of the date such  individual ceased active participation hereunder by (x) transferring to non-Employee  employment or (y) terminating employment, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms  of this Part of the Plan in effect on such date, but only upon subsequent termination of  employment with all Participating Employer and its Affiliates.  For purposes of this Section, the  applicable benefit determined as of the date of (x) transfer or (y) initial termination shall be the  individual’s accrued benefit.  If the individual is eligible under another defined benefit plan or  another Part of the Plan with a corollary provision to this Section and elects to have the  equivalent to this Section apply in such other plan or Part, then the applicable benefit shall also  include any retirement supplements to which the individual (x) would then have been entitled if  he or she had retired on the date of transfer, or (y) was or, if he or she had then retired, would  have been entitled on the date of initial termination, except for any location closedown benefits,  early retirement window supplements, periodic retiree increases limited to retirement within  specified time periods, or similar benefits which require termination of employment due to  certain causes or within a certain time period which is not satisfied.  (b) Into Employee Status:  Either (x) an individual who transfers to Employee  status from non-Employee employment with a Participating Employer or its Affiliates or (y) a  terminated, former Employee of a Participating Employer and its Affiliates who is subsequently  reemployed in Employee status shall receive from this Plan a benefit calculated as described in  (i), (ii), if eligible, or (iii) below at the individual’s election:  (i) This method provides a benefit as follows:  (A) a benefit using the formula hereunder with Credited Service  earned from and after the date the individual becomes an  Employee; plus  (B) the Normal Retirement Date benefit payable under the  defined benefit plan or other Part of this Plan in which the  individual participated prior to becoming an Employee (the  “prior plan”) using the formula and service credits of the  prior plan or prior Part as of (x) the transfer date and  assuming termination of employment on that date, or (y)  the date of initial termination; plus  (C) in the event (1) the benefit payable from the prior plan or  prior Part is a deferred vested benefit, and (2) the prior plan  or prior Part has a different calculation formula for  Deferred Vested Participants than for retirees, and (3) such  individual retires from this Part of the Plan, the benefit  

 

  F-12  4841-1404-2944.2  under this Part of the Plan shall be increased by a  supplement equal to the difference between the retirement  and deferred vested calculations referenced in (1) and (2).  The benefit amount calculated above is payable as a Normal Retirement Date  benefit.  Vesting provisions, any early commencement factors, and optional form  of payment factors shall be determined pursuant to this Part of the Plan, together  with eligibility for any retirement supplements.  In order to elect this option (i), an  individual must receive any benefits payable from the prior plan or prior Part in  the same form, at the same time, and subject to the same actuarial adjustment  factors as provided in this Part of the Plan, and there shall be a monthly offset  under this Part of the Plan for the amount of any benefit payment from the prior  plan or prior Part.  In no event may an individual receive duplicate benefits from  this Part of the Plan and the prior plan or prior Part.  (ii) If either (x) an individual transfers to Employee status and  remains an Employee for a minimum of 36 consecutive calendar  months following the end of the month preceding such transfer  or (y) a terminated, former Employee of a Participating  Employer and its Affiliates is subsequently reemployed in  Employee status and remains an Employee for a minimum of 36  consecutive calendar months following the end of the month  preceding such reemployment, the individual may elect this  option (ii).  The 36-month service requirement shall be waived  for any individual (x) transferring to or (y) reemployed in  Employee status who had previously been an Employee  hereunder or who, while an Employee, dies, becomes totally and  permanently disabled, or is terminated as a result of job  abolition.  Under this option, the benefit payable under this Part  of the Plan shall be the greater of the following:  the amount determined under (i) above, or  (A) the amount determined under the formula of this Part using  all years of Credited Service before and after (x) the  transfer date or (y) the date of reemployment, calculated  using the Credited Service definition under this Part of the  Plan, both for service as an Employee and for service prior  to the (x) transfer date or (y) date of initial termination.  The benefit amount calculated above is payable as a Normal Retirement Date  benefit.  Vesting provisions, any early commencement factors and optional form  of payment factors shall be determined pursuant to this Part of the Plan, together  with eligibility for any retirement supplements.  In order to elect this option (ii),  an individual must receive any benefits payable from the prior plan in the same  form, at the same time, and subject to the same actuarial adjustment factors as  provided in this Part of the Plan, and there shall be a monthly offset under this  

 

  F-13  4841-1404-2944.2  Part of the Plan for the amount of any benefit payment from the prior plan or prior  Part.  In no event may an individual receive duplicate benefits from this Part of  the Plan and the prior plan or prior Part.  (iii) This option is the benefit payable under the prior plan or prior  Part with the following three rules:  (1) using the actuarial factors  and supplements of the prior plan or prior Part to which (x) the  individual would have been entitled if termination of  employment occurred at the transfer date, or (y) the individual  was or would have been entitled at the date of initial termination;  (2) with vesting calculated using the terms of the prior plan or  prior Part as of (x) the transfer date, or (y) the date of initial  termination, but (3) disregarding any location closedown  benefits, early retirement window supplements, periodic retiree  increases limited to retirement within specified time periods, or  similar benefits which require termination of employment due to  certain causes or within a certain time period which is not  satisfied.  If assets and liabilities are transferred to this Plan from  the prior plan, this subsection benefit shall be paid from this  Plan; otherwise, it shall be paid from the prior plan.  (c) For purposes of this Section, previous employment with an Affiliate  includes only employment with such entity while it is an Affiliate and not employment prior to  the date such entity became an Affiliate, if applicable.

Capitalized words and phrases defined in Section 1.02 of  this Part shall have that defined meaning when used in this Part, unless the context clearly  indicates otherwise.  Additional capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 1.01 of the  Master Plan Document.  Similarly, cross references in this Part shall apply to the referenced  section in this Part, unless specifically referred to as a section of the Master Plan Document.  Section 1.02. Definitions.

(b) “Actuarial Equivalent” or “Actuarially Calculated” shall be determined for  all purposes (except as required by Code Section 417(e)) using the RP-2000CH mortality table  (weighted 50% male and 50% female) and an 8% interest rate; provided that, in no event shall a  Participant’s actuarial equivalent optional form of benefit hereunder be less valuable than the  value of such Participant’s accrued benefit under Section 3.01 of the Prior Plan as of December  1, 2011 calculated based on the 1971 Group Annuity Mortality Table using a 95% male and 5%  female weighting, with interest at 8%.  (c) “Break in Service” means any Plan Year during which an Employee has  500 or less Hours of Service.  Solely for the purposes of determining whether an Employee has  incurred a Break in Service, the Employee shall be credited with Hours of Service with respect to  any period of unpaid absence under the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 (“FMLA”), or with  respect to any period of a child-rearing absence which is due to:  (i) the Employee’s pregnancy;  (ii) the birth of a child of the Employee;  (iii) the placement of a child with the Employee as a result of the  Employee’s adoption of such child; or  (iv) the caring of such child immediately following such birth or  placement.  Such Hours of Service shall be credited on the basis of the Hours of Service with  which the Employee would have been credited but for such absence or, where those hours cannot  be determined by the Administrator, eight hours per normal workday of the absence.  No more  than 501 such hours shall be credited with respect to any single continuous period of a child- related or FMLA absence due to one or more of the reasons specified above, even though some  or all of those hours may also be recognized as Hours of Service under Section 1.01(h).  The  Hours credited under this subsection shall apply to the Plan Year immediately following the Plan  Year in which the child-related or FMLA absence commences unless such credit is needed to  

 

  G-3  4841-1404-2944.2  avoid a Break in Service in the former Plan Year.  Regardless of the Plan Year to which such  credit is applied, only that portion of such credit which is credited under Section 1.01(h), shall be  recognized in determining the number of years of Vesting Service.  No Hours of Service credit  shall be given for a child-related or FMLA absence under this Section unless sufficient  information to establish the number of days needed for such absence and that such absence is for  one or more of the reasons specified in the FMLA or in clauses (i)-(iv) above, as applicable, is  provided by the Employee to the Administrator in such form and at such time as the  Administrator may specify from time to time under uniform rules consistently applied in like  circumstances for personnel who are similarly situated in respect to such Employee.  (d) “Credited Service” means employment for which credit is given for  purposes of determining the amount of benefits, as follows:  (i) With respect to an Employee who is considered a Transferred  Employee (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement), such  employee will be credited with Credited Service equal to the  Credited Service (in whole and fractional years) credited to such  individual under the terms of the Prior Plan as of the date such  individual becomes a Transferred Employee.  (ii) On and after the Effective Date, Employees shall receive credit  for one year of Credited Service for each Plan Year during which  the Employee receives pay from the Participating Employer for  1,700 or more hours; or a proportionate credit to the nearest  complete 1/10th year for each year during which the Employee  receives pay from the Participating Employer for less than 1,700  hours.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Plan’s  initial Plan Year, any Hours of Service credited to a Transferred  Employee under the Prior Plan for the period from January 1,  2011 through the date such individual becomes a Transferred  Employee and that are not counted in determining Credited  Service under such Prior Plan shall be counted towards Credited  Service hereunder.  (iii) Employees shall receive credit for all service credited under any  other retirement plan or plans to which the Participating  Employer contributes; provided, however, that there shall be no  duplication of benefits for the same period of Credited Service  under the various plans to which the Participating Employer  contributes.  (iv) A non-vested Employee shall lose his or her Credited Service if  his or her employment is terminated and he or she incurs five  consecutive Breaks in Service.  (v) Any Employee who is reemployed prior to five consecutive  Breaks in Service shall have his or her original Credited Service

(e) “Early Retirement Date” means the first day of the month coincident with  or next following the date a Participant is eligible for benefits under Section 2.03, 2.04, or 2.05  of this Part.

An Hour of Service shall be earned for:  (i) An hour for which an individual directly or indirectly receives  pay (or is entitled to payment) for services performed in the  course of employment for the Participating Employer and any  Affiliate Participating Employer and its Affiliates, or for reasons  other than the performance of duties during the applicable  computation period, such as vacation, holidays, jury duty, sick or  funeral leaves, and similar periods of nonworking time;  (ii) Periods of absence because of military leaves (as to which the  individual is entitled to reinstatement as defined in the Veteran’s  Reemployment Rights Act or the Uniformed Services  Employment and Reemployment Rights Act);  (iii) Periods for which back pay is awarded or agreed to (irrespective  of mitigation of damages); and  (iv) Periods of approved personal leaves, but only if the individual  returns within the period authorized for such leave.  The number of Hours of Service credited to an individual as a result of payment  for other than duties performed shall be the same number of Hours of Service the individual  would have received if services had been performed for the Participating Employer and any  Affiliate Participating Employer and its Affiliates during that computation period, based upon  the individual’s customary Hours of Service immediately prior to the absence.  Hours of Service  shall be deemed accumulated for all purposes herein during the period for which they accrued  irrespective of when payment is made, and shall be calculated and credited pursuant to Section  2530.200b-2 of the Department of Labor regulations which are hereby incorporated by reference.  (i) “Normal Retirement Date” means the first day of the month coincident  with or next following the date on which the Employee attains age 65.

The existence of Total and Permanent Disability  shall be determined by the Administrator on the basis of medical evidence.  (n) “Vesting Service” means employment for which credit is given for  purposes of determining eligibility for benefits, as follows:  (i) With respect to an Employee who is considered a Transferred  Employee (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement) such  employee will be credited with Vesting Service equal to the  Vesting Service (in whole and fractional years) credited to such  individual under the terms of the Prior Plan as of the date such  individual becomes a Transferred Employee.  (ii) On and after the Effective Date, Employees shall receive credit  for one year of Vesting Service for each Plan Year, during which  at least 1,000 Hours of Service are accumulated.  A proportionate  year of Vesting Service to the nearest completed one-tenth year  shall be accrued for each 170 Hours of Service for Plan Years  during which the Employee does not accumulate at least 1,000  Hours of Service.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to  the Plan’s initial Plan Year, any Hours of Service credited to a  Transferred Employee under the Prior Plan for the period from  January 1, 2011 through the date such individual becomes a  Transferred Employee and that are not counted in determining  Vesting Service under such Prior Plan shall be counted towards  Vesting Service hereunder.

Every eligible Employee  upon retirement may elect to receive whichever of the following benefits is applicable:  (a) Normal Retirement Benefits:  Subject to subsection (c), the Normal  Retirement Benefit for an eligible Employee shall be a monthly amount per year of Credited  Service based on the following table:  Retirement Date Monthly Amount     On or after August 22, 2011 $27.50     (b) Early Retirement Benefits:  Subject to subsection (c), the Early Retirement  Benefit for an eligible Employee shall be an immediate or deferred benefit as determined in  accordance with Section 3.01(a) of this Part, reduced by 1/180th thereof for each full month by  which the Annuity Starting Date precedes the first day of the month following the month age 65  is attained, except if age 65 is attained on the first day of a month, that month shall not be  included.  (c) Offset from Benefits Payable under the Prior Plan.  With respect to any  eligible Employee who was a Transferred Employee, the Normal Retirement Benefit or Early  Retirement Benefit shall be reduced by the amount of the benefit payable to such eligible  Employee under the terms of the Prior Plan, calculated assuming the benefit payment under the  Prior Plan had the same Annuity Starting Date as the benefits payable under this Part of the Plan.  Section 3.02. Disability Retirement Benefits.  The Disability Retirement Benefit  for an Employee eligible therefor shall be composed of a disability annuity and a supplemental  disability benefit.  The disability annuity shall be a monthly amount computed in the same  manner as Section 3.01(a) of this Part (including with application of the offset described in  Section 3.01(c) of this Part).

The monthly benefit will be an amount equal to 50% of the monthly benefit to which the  Employee would have otherwise been entitled pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Master Plan  Document – if the benefit were paid in the form of a single life annuity at the later of the date of  death or the date the Employee would have been age 57, provided that the benefit payments to  the surviving Spouse shall be reduced by 1% for each full year exceeding 10 years by which the  Employee’s Spouse is younger than the Employee.  The surviving Spouse benefit shall  commence on the latest of:  (i) the month following the Employee’s or disability retiree’s date of  death,

  G-11  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE IV. PAYMENT OF BENEFITS  Section 4.01. Transfers and Reemployment.  (a) Out of Employee Status:  If either (x) an Employee is transferred to or (y)  a terminated former Employee is reemployed in non-Employee status with a Participating  Employer or an Affiliate, the benefits hereunder shall be determined as of the date such  individual ceased active participation hereunder by (x) transferring to non-Employee  employment or (y) terminating employment and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of  this Part of the Plan in effect on such date, but only upon subsequent termination of employment  with all Participating Employers and its Affiliates.  For purposes of this Section, the applicable  benefit determined as of the date of (x) transfer or (y) initial termination shall be the individual’s  accrued benefit.  If the individual is eligible under another defined benefit plan or another Part of  the Plan with a corollary provision to this Section and elects to have the equivalent to this  Section apply in such other plan or Part, then the applicable benefit shall also include any  retirement supplements to which the individual (x) would then have been entitled if he or she had  retired on the date of transfer, or (y) was or, if he or she had then retired, would have been  entitled on the date of initial termination, except for any location closedown benefits, early  retirement window supplements, periodic retiree increases limited to retirement within specified  time periods, or similar benefits which require termination of employment due to certain causes  or within a certain time period which is not satisfied.  (b) Into Employee Status:  Either (x) an individual who transfers to Employee  status from non-Employee employment with a Participating Employer or its Affiliates or (y) a  terminated, former Employee of a Participating Employer and its Affiliates who is subsequently  reemployed in Employee status shall receive from this Plan a benefit calculated as described in  (i), (ii), if eligible, or (iii) below at the individual’s election:  (i) This method provides a benefit as follows:  (A) a benefit using the formula hereunder with Credited Service  earned from and after the date the individual becomes an  Employee; plus  (B) the Normal Retirement Date benefit payable under the  defined benefit plan or other Part of this Plan in which the  individual participated prior to becoming an Employee (the  “prior plan”) using the formula and service credits of the  prior plan or prior Part as of (x) the transfer date and  assuming termination of employment on that date, or (y)  the date of initial termination; plus  (C) in the event (1) the benefit payable from the prior plan or  prior Part is a deferred vested benefit, and (2) the prior plan  or prior Part has a different calculation formula for  Deferred Vested Participants than for retirees, and (3) such  individual retires from this Part of the Plan, the benefit  

 

  G-12  4841-1404-2944.2  under this Part of the Plan shall be increased by a  supplement equal to the difference between the retirement  and deferred vested calculations referenced in (1) and (2).  The benefit amount calculated above is payable as a Normal Retirement Date  benefit.  Vesting provisions, any early commencement factors, and optional form of payment  factors shall be determined pursuant to this Part of the Plan, together with eligibility for any  retirement supplements.  In order to elect this option (i), an individual must receive any benefits  payable from the prior plan or prior Part in the same form, at the same time, and subject to the  same actuarial adjustment factors as provided in this Part of the Plan, and there shall be a  monthly offset under this Part of the Plan for the amount of any benefit payment from the prior  plan or prior Part.  In no event may an individual receive duplicate benefits from this Part of the  Plan and the prior plan or prior Part.  (ii) If either (x) an individual transfers to Employee status and  remains an Employee for a minimum of 36 consecutive calendar  months following the end of the month preceding such transfer  or (y) a terminated, former Employee of a Participating  Employer and its Affiliates is subsequently reemployed in  Employee status and remains an Employee for a minimum of 36  consecutive calendar months following the end of the month  preceding such reemployment, the individual may elect this  option (ii).  The 36-month service requirement shall be waived  for any individual (x) transferring to or (y) reemployed in  Employee status who had previously been an Employee  hereunder or who, while an Employee, dies, becomes totally and  permanently disabled, or is terminated as a result of job  abolition.  Under this option, the benefit payable under this Part  of the Plan shall be the greater of the following:  the amount determined under (i) above, or  (A) the amount determined under the formula of this Part using  all years of Credited Service before and after (x) the  transfer date or (y) the date of reemployment, calculated  using the Credited Service definition under this Part of the  Plan, both for service as an Employee and for service prior  to the (x) transfer date or (y) date of initial termination.  The benefit amount calculated above is payable as a Normal Retirement Date  benefit.  Vesting provisions, any early commencement factors and optional form of payment  factors shall be determined pursuant to this Part of the Plan, together with eligibility for any  retirement supplements.  In order to elect this option (ii), an individual must receive any benefits  payable from the prior plan in the same form, at the same time, and subject to the same actuarial  adjustment factors as provided in this Part of the Plan, and there shall be a monthly offset under  this Part of the Plan for the amount of any benefit payment from the prior plan or prior Part.  In  

 

  G-13  4841-1404-2944.2  no event may an individual receive duplicate benefits from this Part of the Plan and the prior  plan or prior Part.  (iii) This option is the benefit payable under the prior plan or prior  Part with the following three rules:  (1) using the actuarial factors  and supplements of the prior plan or prior Part to which (x) the  individual would have been entitled if termination of  employment occurred at the transfer date, or (y) the individual  was or would have been entitled at the date of initial termination;  (2) with vesting calculated using the terms of the prior plan or  prior Part as of (x) the transfer date, or (y) the date of initial  termination, but (3) disregarding any location closedown  benefits, early retirement window supplements, periodic retiree  increases limited to retirement within specified time periods, or  similar benefits which require termination of employment due to  certain causes or within a certain time period which is not  satisfied.  If assets and liabilities are transferred to this Plan from  the prior plan, this subsection benefit shall be paid from this  Plan; otherwise, it shall be paid from the prior plan.  (c) For purposes of this Section, previous employment with an Affiliate  includes only employment with such entity while it is an Affiliate and not employment prior to  the date such entity became an Affiliate, if applicable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the  Participant’s Postponed Retirement Benefit be less than the Normal Retirement Benefit as of his  or her Normal Retirement Date increased by an actuarially equivalent value to reflect the  monthly payments that would have been paid, if he or she had actually retired on such date, for  each calendar month that he or she does not receive pay for at least 40 Hours of Service  (disregarding for this purpose any Hours of Service resulting from an award or agreement as to  back pay); provided, that the amount of such increase shall be reduced (but not below zero) on an  actuarially equivalent basis to reflect the amount, if any, the Participant accrues since his or her  Normal Retirement Date (but not beyond his Required Beginning Date).  (b) Suspension. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant remains  employed by the Employer beyond his or her Normal Retirement Date, then his Normal  Retirement Benefit shall be suspended until his or her Postponed Retirement Date or, if earlier,  his or her Required Beginning Date.  The Employer shall notify the Participant of such  suspension pursuant to the requirements of Department of Labor Regulations Section 2530.203-3  during the first calendar month in which the Participant attains his or her Normal Retirement  Date.  If, however, the Employer fails to provide such notice, then the benefits payable under the  Plan shall be increased by an actuarially equivalent value in accordance with the requirements of  the Code and ERISA Section 203(a); provided, that the amount of such increase shall be reduced  (but not below zero) on an actuarially equivalent basis to reflect the amount the Participant  accrues since his or her Normal Retirement Date (but not beyond his Required Beginning Date).   In no event, however, shall a Participant’s benefits be suspended hereunder if he or she earns  fewer than 40 Hours of Service during a calendar month after such Participant’s Normal  Retirement Date.  Section 5.04. In-Service Benefit.  A Participant who remains employed by the  Employer until his or her Required Beginning Date shall begin receiving a monthly in-service  Benefit commencing as of his or her Required Beginning Date in the manner specified in Article  IX.  The amount of a Participant’s in-service benefit, when expressed as a monthly benefit for  the Participant’s life, shall be equal to the benefit to which he or she would be entitled at his or  her Normal Retirement Date as calculated under Section 5.01 based on his or her years of  Credited Service up to, and the dollar benefit rate applicable to such Participant as of, the date on  which his or her benefits commence (or as of December 31, 2016, if earlier).  As long as such a  Participant remains employed by the Employer, his or her benefit shall be recalculated as of the  first day of each succeeding calendar year based on his or her years of Credited Service up to,  and the dollar benefit rate applicable to such Participant as of, the date of such calculation (or as  of December 31, 2016, if earlier), but such recalculated benefit shall be offset by the Actuarial  Equivalent of the in-service benefits which the Participant has received under the Plan.  In no  event shall any such recalculated benefit be less than the benefit the Participant was receiving  immediately prior to such recalculation.  

 

  H-12  4841-1404-2944.2  Section 5.05. Actuarial Increase.  The benefit of a Participant whose Annuity  Starting Date is later than the April 1 following the calendar year in which he or she attains age  701⁄2 shall be actuarially increased, to the extent required under Code Section 401(a)(9)(C), to  take into account the period after such April 1 during which the Participant is not receiving any  benefits under the Plan.  Section 5.06. Limitation Of Benefit.  Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to  the contrary, a Participant who is no longer employed by the Employer or any Affiliate shall be  considered a terminated Employee and such Participant’s accrual of benefits under the Plan shall  cease no later than the date he or she no longer is employed.  

 

  H-13  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE VI. DISABILITY BENEFIT  Section 6.01. Disability Payments.  A Participant who has attained age 40 and  completed 20 years of Credited Service (or 10 years of Credited Service if hired before July 1,  1990) and who becomes permanently and totally disabled, as set out in Section 6.02 hereof, prior  to his or her Normal Retirement Date shall become fully vested (if not already fully vested) in  his or her benefit.  Such Participant may elect, after he or she is determined to be disabled, to  begin receiving the benefits provided in Section 5.01 as of an Annuity Starting Date.  Such  benefit shall be based on his or her years of Credited Service, and the dollar benefit rate  applicable to such Participant, as of his or her date of disability (or as of December 31, 2016, if  earlier).  The Participant’s disability benefit shall be reduced by any benefits payable to the  Participant under Worker’s Compensation or Occupational Disease laws for which the Employer  is liable (except fixed statutory payments for the loss of any bodily member).  Any lump sum  payment on account of Worker’s Compensation or Occupational Disease laws which is  deductible in accordance with this Section shall be divided by the number of weeks for which the  award is based and the monthly amount shall be charged against the monthly disability benefit  otherwise payable under the Plan from the date of such lump sum payment until such lump sum,  as so charged, is exhausted.  If prior to the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date the  Administrator determines that the Participant is no longer disabled, or if the Participant refuses to  submit to a medical examination at any reasonable time prior to his or her Normal Retirement  Date (no more frequently than semi-annually) for the purpose of verifying the continuance of his  or her disability, payment of his or her disability benefit shall cease.  If the Participant’s  disability benefit is not discontinued prior to his or her Normal Retirement Date, the Participant  shall continue to be entitled to the same monthly benefit after his or her Normal Retirement Date.  Section 6.02. Determination Of Disability.  A Participant shall be deemed to be  permanently and totally disabled only if:  (a) while employed by the Employer he or she has been totally disabled by  bodily injury or disease so as to be prevented thereby from engaging in any substantial gainful  activity; and  (b) such total disability shall have continued for a period of six (6)  consecutive months and will, in the opinion of a qualified physician satisfactory to the  Administrator, be permanent and continuous during the remainder of such Participant’s lifetime.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a permanent and total disability which is either  incurred while serving in the armed forces, intentionally self-inflicted, or the result of malicious  criminal conduct, addiction to narcotics or habitual drunkenness shall not give rise to a disability  benefit under this Section.  The Administrator shall have the right to verify the continued  existence of a Participant’s permanent and total disability at reasonable times prior to his or her  Normal Retirement Date.  A Participant who refuses to submit to a medical examination shall be  presumed to have recovered from his or her permanent and total disability.

Section 8.06. Accelerated Vesting.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  contained in the Plan, each Participant who is an active Participant on December 31, 2016 shall  have a nonforfeitable right to such Participant’s Accrued Benefit, regardless of the number of  years of Vesting Service such Participant has completed as of such date.  

 

  H-16  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE IX. TIMING AND OPTIONAL FORMS OF BENEFITS  Section 9.01. Suspension of Benefits Upon Reemployment.  In the event a  Participant who is receiving benefits under the Plan returns to the full-time employment of the  Employer (as defined in the Employer’s employment practices) prior to his or her Required  Beginning Date, payment of his or her benefits will continue.  Upon his or her subsequent  termination of employment with the Employer, the Participant shall continue to receive the  benefit he or she was receiving during the period of reemployment; provided that, if the  Participant’s most recent termination of employment occurred prior to January 1, 2018, then, to  the extent the law so requires, in no event shall the Participant receive a benefit that is less  valuable, on an actuarial basis, than the benefits to which he or she would be entitled under the  Plan as in effect on the date of such subsequent termination, taking into account his or her age at  the time of such subsequent termination and his or her years of Credited Service earned during  his or her period of reemployment (if any), reduced by the value of the benefits, other than  disability benefits, he or she received prior to his or her subsequent termination date.  Section 9.02. Timing Of Distributions.  (a) Prior To Normal Retirement Date.  If a Participant’s employment is  terminated before his or her Normal Retirement Date for any reason other than his or her death,  the Participant may request the distribution application forms at any time on or after the date  ninety (90) days before the date he or she is first eligible to begin receiving an Early Retirement  Benefit or Normal Retirement Benefit, as applicable.  If a Participant remains employed until he  or she meets the requirement for early retirement, such Participant may request at any time that  the Employer provide him or her with the distribution notice described in Section 3.03 of the  Master Plan Document as well as benefit election forms.  When such a request is made, the  Employer shall promptly provide the distribution notice and benefit election forms to the  Participant if the Actuarial Equivalent lump sum value of the Participant’s vested Accrued  Benefit exceeds $5,000.  In order to begin receiving benefits, the Participant must properly  complete his or her benefit election forms and make certain the Employer receives them before  the first day of the month which contains the date which is ninety (90) days after the date of the  distribution notice provided by the Employer.  If the forms are properly completed and timely  received, distribution of the Participant’s benefits will commence in the form elected by the  Participant (1) as of the first day of the month following the date the distribution notice is  distributed to the Participant if properly completed forms are returned either on or before such  first day of the month or before the expiration of the seven (7) day period beginning the day after  the date the distribution notice is distributed, or (2) as of the first day of the month after the  Employer receives properly completed forms if such forms are returned after the time described  in (1) above.  Such first day of the month shall be his or her Annuity Starting Date. In no event  shall any payments be made before seven (7) days have elapsed since the date the Participant  received the distribution notice.  (b) Continued Employment Until Required Beginning Date.  A Participant  who remains employed by the Employer until the January immediately preceding his or her  Required Beginning Date shall receive the distribution notice described in Section 3.03 of the  Master Plan Document as well as benefit election forms within the 30- to 90-day period before  his or her Required Beginning Date.

  H-17  4841-1404-2944.2  election forms and returns them to the Employer before his or her Required Beginning Date, the  Participant’s benefits will commence in the form elected by the Participant as of his or her  Required Beginning Date.  If the Participant fails to properly complete and return his or her  benefit election forms before his or her Required Beginning Date, distribution of his or her  vested Accrued Benefit will commence at his or her Required Beginning Date in the Normal  Payment Form, and his or her Annuity Starting Date shall be his or her Required Beginning  Date.  Section 9.03. Payment Forms.  In the absence of an election otherwise, a  Participant’s will receive his or her retirement benefits in the Normal Payment Form.

(s) “Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity” means, for a Participant who has a  Spouse, an immediate survivorship life annuity, where the survivorship percentage is fifty  percent (50%) and the Contingent Annuitant is the Participant’s Spouse.

This absence may be the  result of any combination of reasons, including vacation, holiday,  sickness, disability, leave of absence, or layoff, but excluding  quit, retirement, discharge or death.  Solely to determine whether a one-year Period of Severance has occurred for eligibility or  vesting purposes for an Employee who is absent from service beyond the first anniversary of the  first day of a Parental Absence, the Severance Date is the second anniversary of the first day of  the Parental Absence.  The period between the first and second anniversaries of the first day of  the Parental Absence is not a Period of Service and is not a Period of Severance.  (w) “Severance from Employment” means the date an Employee has ceased to  be an Employee.

A Participant who terminates employment  from the Employer and its Affiliates on his or her Normal Retirement Date may commence  receiving his or her vested Normal Retirement Benefit.  The monthly Normal Retirement Benefit  is an amount equal to the product of (i) and (ii) below:  (i) An amount equal to $37.50 ($38.00, for a Participant who was  credited with an Hour of Service as a Part I Employee on and  after January 1, 2012).  (ii) His or her Pension Credited Service on such date.  (b) Early Retirement Date.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, a  Participant’s retirement benefit on his Early Retirement Date shall be equal to his or her Accrued  Benefit on such date, multiplied by the factor shown below corresponding to the number of years  his or her Annuity Starting Date precedes his or her Normal Retirement Date.  NUMBER OF YEARS EARLY  RETIREMENT DATE  PRECEDES NORMAL  RETIREMENT DATE FACTOR     1 .9333  2 .8667  3 .8000  4 .7333  5 .6667     The above factors shall be prorated for a partial year (counting a partial month as  a complete month).  If the Participant was covered under the Plan on the last day of the 1988 Plan  Year, his or her retirement benefit on his or her Early Retirement Date shall not be less than his  or her Accrued Benefit on such date multiplied by the applicable early retirement factor as if the  Plan as in effect on that date had continued unchanged.  An active Participant’s retirement benefit on his or her Early Retirement Date  shall be equal to his or her Accrued Benefit on such date, with no reduction, if he or she has  completed 30 years of Vesting Service.  (c) Special Early Retirement Date.  An active Participant’s retirement benefit  on his or her Special Early Retirement Date shall be equal to his or her Accrued Benefit on such  date.

An active Participant’s retirement benefit on his or  her Late Retirement Date shall be equal to the greatest of (i), (ii), or (iii) below:  (i) The Participant’s Accrued Benefit on his or her Late Retirement  Date.  (ii) The Participant’s Accrued Benefit on his or her Normal  Retirement Date, multiplied by the factor shown below  corresponding to the number of years the Late Retirement Date  follows his or her Normal Retirement Date.  NUMBER OF YEARS EARLY  LATE RETIREMENT DATE  FOLLOWS NORMAL  RETIREMENT DATE FACTOR     1 1.0600  2 1.1200  3 1.1900  4 1.2600  5 1.3400  6 1.4200  7 1.5000  8 1.5900  9 1.6900  10 1.7900     The above factors shall be prorated for a partial year (counting a  partial month as a complete month).  Factors for years beyond ten  (10) shall be determined using a consistently applied reasonable  actuarially equivalent method.  (iii) This (iii) applies only to a Participant whose Late Retirement  Date occurs after the April 1 following the calendar year in  which he or she attains age 701⁄2.  Such Participant’s retirement  benefit will be adjusted to take into account the period after such  date in which the Participant was not receiving his or her  retirement benefit.  The amount in this (iii) shall be equal to the  retirement benefit that would have been paid on such date  (determined as if his or her Late Retirement Date had occurred  on such date) multiplied by the factor in (ii) above for one (1)  year past Normal Retirement Date, prorated for a partial year  based on the number of months in the period (counting a partial  month as a complete month).  If the Participant’s Late Retirement Date occurs after the first day  of the Plan Year following such date, the amount in this (iii) shall  

 

  I-11  4841-1404-2944.2  be equal to the retirement benefit that would have been paid on the  first day of the Plan Year, multiplied by the factor in (ii) above for  one (1) year past Normal Retirement Date, prorated for a partial  year based on the number of months since the first day of the Plan  Year (counting a partial month as a complete month).  The amount in this (iii) shall be redetermined on the first day of  each Plan Year based on the retirement benefit that would have  been paid on such date (determined as if his Late Retirement Date  has occurred on such date) multiplied by the factor in (ii) above for  one (1) year past Normal Retirement Date, prorated for a partial  year based on the number of months since the first day of the Plan  Year (counting a partial month as a complete month).  (e) Special Lump Sum Payment.  If a Participant retires under normal, early,  special early or late retirement, he or she is eligible to receive a lump sum special payment to  cover his or her first three (3) months of retirement.  This special payment is equal to thirteen  (13) weeks of vacation pay for the vacation year in which he or she retires, less any vacation pay  he or she actually receives for that vacation year, multiplied by his or her weekly rate of vacation  pay for that vacation year.  This special payment will be paid to the Participant in a lump sum within the first  full month following his or her retirement.  A Participant is entitled to only one special payment.   If he or she returns to work after retiring, he or she will not receive a second special payment  when he or she retires again.  (f) Benefit Not Less than Early Retirement Amount.  A Participant’s  retirement benefit under the Normal Form shall not be less than the greatest amount of benefit  that would have been provided for him or her had he or she retired on any earlier retirement date.  (g) Benefits Upon Employment After Retirement Date.  If a Participant is  employed by the Employer after his or her Annuity Starting Date, any monthly retirement benefit  payment he or she is receiving shall continue unchanged.  If such Participant again became an active Participant after his or her Retirement  Date, his or her benefits under this Plan shall not be duplicated.  The retirement benefit from the  Accrued Benefit resulting from such additional period of Pension Credited Service shall be  payable according to the provisions of Article V.  Any death benefit from the Accrued Benefit he  or she accrued during his or her latest period as an active Participant shall be determined as  provided in Section 4.01.  Section 3.02. Disregard of Accrued Benefit.  If a Participant receives a single  sum payment equal to the Actuarial Equivalent present value of his or her entire vested Accrued  Benefit, then his or her entire Accrued Benefit as of the date of the distribution shall be  disregarded.  If the Actuarial Equivalent present value of a Participant’s vested Accrued Benefit  was zero and he or she was deemed to have received a distribution of such present value of his  

 

  I-12  4841-1404-2944.2  entire vested Accrued Benefit, and he or she again becomes an Eligible Employee before the end  of the first period of five (5) consecutive one-year Periods of Severance that begin after the date  of the deemed distribution, upon the date he or she again performs an Hour of Service as an  Eligible Employee, the Employer-derived Accrued Benefit (including all optional forms of  benefits and subsidies relating to such benefits) shall be restored to the amount of such Accrued  Benefit on the date of the deemed distribution.    

 

  I-13  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE IV. OTHER BENEFITS  Section 4.01. Death Benefits.  (a) A Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be payable only if the  Participant is survived by a Spouse.  If this requirement is met, then the Qualified Preretirement  Survivor Annuity shall become payable on the earliest date on or after the date of the  Participant’s death on which he or she could have elected to retire if he or she had a Severance  from Employment on the date of his death (or the date he or she last had a Severance from  Employment, if earlier) and survived to retire.  The Spouse may elect to start benefits on any  later first day of the month.  If the Spouse chooses to start benefits later, the Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Qualified Preretirement  Survivor Annuity that would have been payable on the date the Qualified Preretirement Survivor  Annuity would otherwise have been payable.  Benefits must start by the date the Participant  would have been age 70 1/2.  If the Spouse dies before the Qualified Preretirement Survivor  Annuity starts, no death benefits are payable hereunder.  Subject to applicable Code rules, a surviving Spouse who is entitled to a Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity may elect to receive such benefit in any annuity that is an  optional form of retirement benefit.  (b) If a vested Participant dies while an Employee and after meeting the Early  Retirement Age and Service Requirements, and if a Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity is  not payable upon the Participant’s death, then his or her Beneficiary will receive sixty (60)  monthly payments.  The amount of each payment is equal to the monthly amount the Participant  would have received had he or she retired on the day before his or her death under the Normal  Form.  (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant elects within ninety (90)  days before the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date a survivorship annuity providing a greater  than fifty percent (50%) death benefit and the Contingent Annuitant is the Participant’s Spouse,  then such greater percentage shall be paid in lieu of the fifty percent (50%) benefit described in  subsection (c) above. Such election must be a qualified election according to the provisions of  Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Master Plan Document.    Section 4.02. Disability Benefits.  If an active Participant became Totally and  Permanently Disabled before his or her Normal Retirement Date, a disability benefit shall be  payable to him or her if the disability occurs on or after he or she has completed ten (10) years of  Vesting Service.  The disability benefit payable to a Participant who met the requirements above is  an immediate monthly benefit equal to his or her Accrued Benefit on the day before his or her  monthly disability benefit begins, but not less than $100.  Monthly disability benefit payments shall begin on the earliest first day of the  month on or after the date the Participant meets the requirements under this Section.  Such  payments shall continue through the last monthly payment made before the earliest of his or her  

 

  I-14  4841-1404-2944.2  Annuity Starting Date (or Normal Retirement Date, if earlier), the date of his or her death, or the  day following the date he or she is no longer Totally and Permanently Disabled.  If the payments continue through the month immediately preceding the  Participant’s Annuity Starting Date (or Normal Retirement Date, if earlier), retirement benefits  shall be provided for him or her on his retirement date under the provisions of Article III.  The  Participant’s Accrued Benefit shall be equal to his or her Accrued Benefit as of the day before  the disability benefit began.  However, such Accrued Benefit shall not be less than the amount of  monthly disability payment paid to him or her under this Section.  If, before the Participant’s  Annuity Starting Date (or Normal Retirement Date, if earlier), he or she recovers and returns to  active work for the Employer within one month of his or her recovery, then the payments shall  stop.  If, before the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date (or Normal Retirement Date, if earlier),  he or she recovers and does not return to active work for the Employer within one (1) month of  his or her recovery, then the payments shall stop and his or her benefits shall become payable  under the Deferred Vested Benefits provisions of the Plan.  Section 4.03. Vested Benefits.   (a) If a vested Participant dies before his or her Annuity Starting Date, the  only death benefits payable shall be the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity, or, if  applicable, the death benefit described in subsection (e).  (b) If a Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity becomes payable pursuant  to subsection (a), the Participant’s surviving Spouse shall be paid, commencing on the first day  of the month following the later of the Participant’s death or the date the Participant would have  attained his or her Early Retirement Age, a survivor annuity for the life of the surviving Spouse;  provided, however, that distribution to the surviving Spouse shall not be made prior to the date  the Participant would have attained his or her Normal Retirement Age without the consent of the  surviving Spouse. Benefits must start by the date the Participant would have been age 701⁄2. If the  Spouse dies before the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity starts, no death benefits are  payable hereunder.  (c) If the Participant is employed by the Employer at the time of his or her  death, then the amount payable to the Participant’s surviving Spouse in the form of a Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be fifty percent (50%) of the amount calculated under  Section 3.01 of this Part based on the Pension Credited Service accrued as of the date of his or  her death, reduced by the early retirement reduction factors if the death benefit begins before the  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date.  If the Participant is not employed at the time of his or her  death, the amount payable to the Participant’s surviving Spouse in the form of Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be fifty percent (50%) of the amount calculated under  Section 3.01 of this Part based on the Pension Credited Service accrued as of the date of his or  her death, with the following adjustments:  (i) The benefit shall be reduced by the actuarial factors used to  convert the benefit under Section 3.02 to a Qualified Joint and  Survivor Annuity; and  

 

  I-15  4841-1404-2944.2  (ii) The early retirement reduction factors shall be applied if the  death benefit begins before the Participant’s Normal Retirement  Date.  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant elects within ninety (90)  days before the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date a survivorship annuity providing a greater  than fifty percent (50%) death benefit and the Contingent Annuitant is the Participant’s Spouse,  then such greater percentage shall be paid in lieu of the fifty percent 50% benefit described in  subsection (c) above. Such election must be a qualified election according to the provisions of  Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Master Plan Document.    (e) If a vested Participant dies while an Employee and after meeting the Early  Retirement Age and Service Requirements, and if a Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity is  not payable upon the Participant’s death, then his or her Beneficiary will receive sixty (60)  monthly payments. The amount of each payment is equal to the monthly amount the Participant  would have received had he or she retired on the day before his or her death under the Normal  Form.   

 

  I-16  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE V. WHEN BENEFITS START AND DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS  Section 5.01. When Benefits Start.  (a) A Participant with a vested benefit who terminates employment on or after  meeting the Early Retirement Age and Service Requirements may commence receipt of his or  her benefits on an Early Retirement Date, or on any later date as he or she may elect.  (b) A Participant who terminates employment prior to his or her Early  Retirement Date but who has met the service requirements under the Early Retirement Age and  Service Requirements may elect to begin receiving an early retirement benefit on the first day of  any month coincident with or following his or her Early Retirement Age, or on any later date as  he or she may elect, or may elect to receive a Normal Retirement Benefit commencing on his or  her Normal Retirement Date.

The automatic form of retirement benefit for a  Participant who does not die before his Annuity Starting Date shall be:  (i) The Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity for a Participant who  has a Spouse on his or her Annuity Starting Date.  (ii) The Normal Form for a Participant who does not have a Spouse  on his or her Annuity Starting Date.  (b) Death Benefits.  The automatic form of death benefit for a Participant who  dies before his or her Annuity Starting Date is determined according to the provisions of Section  4.01.  Section 5.03. Optional Forms Of Retirement Benefits.  The optional forms of  retirement benefits shall be those stated in Section 3.02 of the Master Plan Document, as well as  a single life annuity with a certain period of five (5) years. For the 5-year period certain  option,  an actuarially reduced benefit shall be payable to the Participant through the month in which the  participant dies, and in the event the Participant dies prior to receiving sixty (60) monthly  payments, monthly payments in the same amount shall be continued payable to the Participant’s  Beneficiary until an aggregate of sixty (60) monthly payments have been made.   The Participant must designate a Beneficiary on a form prescribed by and  submitted to the Administrator in accordance with Section 3.02 of the Master Plan Document.  Such designation may be changed or revoked at any time prior to the death of the Participant. If  both the Participant and his or her Beneficiary die prior to the receipt of sixty (60) monthly  payments in the aggregate, then the remainder of such sixty (60) monthly payments shall be paid  to the estate of the last to die of the Participant or his or her Beneficiary.

If the disabled Participant is entitled to  receive disability benefits for any period after his or her Normal Retirement Date pursuant to a  long term disability plan maintained by the Employer, then he or she shall continue to receive his  or her Disability Benefit hereunder, and when his or her benefit pursuant to such long term  disability plan ceases, his or her Disability Benefit hereunder shall cease and he or she shall be  deemed to be retired at his or her Late Retirement Date and shall be eligible to receive a  Postponed Retirement Benefit, in accordance with the Plan’s procedures (including the  requirement that an application for benefits be made).

(k) “Employment Commencement Date” means the date an Employee first  performs an Hour of Service.  (l) “Late Retirement Date” means the first day of any month that is after a  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date and on which retirement benefits begin.

For  benefit accrual purposes, Pension Credited Service accrued while not an Eligible Employee shall  be disregarded.  (i) When determining Pension Credited Service for purposes other  than vesting, the following special rules shall apply:  (A) Only the first year of any Employer-approved leave of  absence described in Section 2.04 of this Part shall be  included as Pension Credited Service;  (B) The first twelve (12) months of any period of layoff not  treated as a termination of employment by McGill  Manufacturing Company, Inc. shall be counted;  (C) No portion of a Participant’s Periods of Severance shall be  counted.  (D) If an individual is transferred from employment as an  hourly employee of McGill Manufacturing Company, Inc.  to employment as an Eligible Employee, the individual’s  Pension Credited Service as an hourly employee of McGill  Manufacturing Company, Inc. shall be counted for  purposes of computing his or her benefits under this Part;  provided, however, that the benefit to which such  individual is entitled under this Part shall be reduced by the  

 

  L-5  4841-1404-2944.2  actuarial equivalent of the benefits to which the individual  is entitled under Part L (or any other Part that provides  benefit accruals for such hourly service) or any qualified  defined benefit plan which affords a benefit for such hourly  service.  (ii) When determining Pension Credited Service for vesting  purposes, the following special rules shall apply:  (A) A full year of Pension Credited Service shall be granted for  the twelve (12) month period commencing on the  Participant’s employment anniversary date next preceding  his or her termination of employment date if the Participant  completes 1,000 Hours of Service during the portion of  such period before his or her termination of employment  date; otherwise, the Participant shall be granted a fractional  year of Pension Credited Service for the period between  such employment anniversary date and his or her  termination of employment date calculated in completed  months, and any portion of a month in excess of a whole  number of months during that period shall be counted as a  completed month.  However, if such a Participant is rehired  before twelve (12) months have elapsed since his or her  termination of employment date and thereby receives  Pension Credited Service for vesting purposes for his or her  Severance Period between his or her date of termination of  employment and his or her date of rehire, the preceding  sentence shall not apply.  (B) Pension Credited Service completed prior to the date the  Participant attains age 18 shall be disregarded.  A Participant who becomes permanently and totally disabled while employed by  the Employer after completing ten (10) years of Pension Credited Service and is  receiving disability benefits pursuant to the Social Security Laws shall be treated  as continuing employment of the Employer; provided, however, that if prior to  such Participant’s Annuity Starting Date, the Administrator determines that the  Participant is no longer disabled or the Participant refuses to submit to medical  examinations at any reasonable time (but not more frequently than semi-annually)  to verify the continuation of his or her disability, or such Participant declines to  resume active employment with the Employer within ninety (90) days after said  determination by the Administrator, then the Participant’s employment with the  Employer shall be deemed to have terminated on the first anniversary of the date  the Participant became disabled (or on the date of said determination by the  Administrator, if earlier) for purposes of determining his or her entitlement to  benefits under any other provisions of the Plan.  

 

  L-6  4841-1404-2944.2  (s) “Period of Service” means a period of time beginning on an Employee’s  Employment Commencement Date or Reemployment Commencement Date (whichever applies)  and ending on his most recent Severance Date.  For purposes of calculating an Employee’s  Period of Service, the following rules shall apply:  (i) A Period of Service shall be expressed as years and fractional  parts of a year (to two decimal places) on the basis that 365 days  equal one year.  (ii) A Period of Severance shall be deemed to be a Period of Service  under either of the following conditions:  (A) the Period of  Severance immediately follows a period during which an  Employee is not absent from work and ends within twelve (12)  months; or (B) the Period of Severance immediately follows a  period during which an Employee is absent from work for any  reason other than quitting, being discharged, or retiring (such as  a leave of absence or layoff) and ends within twelve (12) months  of the date he or she was first absent.  (iii) A Period of Service shall be reduced by (A) all or any part of a  Period of Service that is not counted pursuant to the rules set  forth in this Plan and/or (B) any Period of Severance that  occurred prior to his most recent Severance Date, unless such  Period of Severance is included under the service spanning rules  described in (ii) above.  (t) “Period of Severance” means a period of time beginning on an  Employee’s Severance Date and ending on the date he or she again performs an Hour of Service.   A one-year Period of Severance means a Period of Severance of twelve (12) consecutive months.   Solely for purposes of determining whether a one-year Period of Severance has occurred for  eligibility or vesting purposes, the consecutive twelve (12) month period beginning on the first  anniversary of the first date of a Parental Absence shall not be a one-year Period of Severance.  (u) “Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity” means a straight life annuity  payable to the surviving Spouse of a Participant who dies before his Annuity Starting Date with a  vested benefit hereunder calculated as provided in Section 4.01.

(v) “Reemployment Commencement Date” means the date an Employee first  performs an Hour of Service following a Period of Severance.  (w) “Retirement Date” means the date a retirement benefit will begin and is a  Participant’s Early, Special Early, Normal, or Late Retirement Date, as the case may be.  (x) “Severance Date” means the earlier of:  

 

  L-7  4841-1404-2944.2  (i) the date on which an Employee quits, retires, dies, or is  discharged, or  (ii) the first anniversary of the first date an Employee remains absent  from service (with or without pay).  This absence may be the  result of any combination of reasons, including vacation, holiday,  sickness, disability, leave of absence, or layoff, but excluding  quit, retirement, discharge or death.  Solely to determine whether a one-year Period of Severance has  occurred for eligibility or vesting purposes for an Employee who  is absent from service beyond the first anniversary of the first  day of a Parental Absence, the Severance Date is the second  anniversary of the first day of the Parental Absence.  The period  between the first and second anniversaries of the first day of the  Parental Absence is not a Period of Service and is not a Period of  Severance.  (y) “Severance from Employment” means the date an Employee has ceased to  be an Employee.  (z) “Spouse” means either (1) the person to whom a Participant is lawfully  married on his or her Annuity Starting Date or (2) in the event the Participant dies prior to his or  her Annuity Starting Date, the person to whom the Participant was married throughout the ninety  (90) day period preceding the Participant’s death.  For purposes hereof, “lawfully married”  means legally married (A) under the laws of the United States (or one of the United States) or  any other generally recognized jurisdiction and (B) for federal tax purposes.

  L-9  4841-1404-2944.2  Severance equals or exceeds the greater of six (6) years or one year plus his or her Period of  Service, whether or not consecutive, completed before such Period of Severance, then any Period  of Service accrued prior to such break in service shall be disregarded.  (b) Service with Foreign Corporation.  A Participant who leaves the  employment of the Employer and its Affiliates to accept employment with a corporation which is  directly or indirectly owned fifty percent (50%) or more by the Company or a Subsidiary but  which is organized outside of the United States, or to accept employment (at the written request  of the Employer) with any other corporation organized outside of the United States, shall, if he or  she thereafter returns to employment in the United States with the Employer or its Affiliates for  at least twelve (12) months, earn benefits as if he or she had continued in the employment of the  Employer and its Affiliates for the period of such foreign employment; provided, however, that  any benefits credited for such period shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any  foreign pension or severance payment earned during such period.  (c) Disability Accrual.  Except as may be provided otherwise in this Part, a  Participant who becomes disabled while employed by the Employer or its Affiliates and is  receiving disability benefits pursuant to the Social Security Laws shall for the purposes of this  Plan be considered as having continued in the employment of the Employer, so long as he or she  continues to receive such benefits, until the earliest of (i) the date he or she is no longer  permanently and totally disabled, (ii) the date he or she has attained his or her Normal  Retirement Date, (iii) his or her Annuity Starting Date, or (iv) the date he or she dies.

Such approved leaves of absence shall be given on a uniform non-discriminatory basis.  

 

  L-10  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE III. RETIREMENT BENEFITS  Section 3.01. Retirement Benefits.  (a) Normal Retirement Benefit.

The  monthly Normal Retirement Benefit shall be equal to the sum of (i) plus (ii) plus (iii), minus the  amount described in (iv) below:  (i) 1.0% of Average Compensation up to one-twelfth of the Average  Social Security Wage Base multiplied by Pension Credited  Service not to exceed 35 years; plus  (ii) 1.4% of Average Compensation in excess of one-twelfth of the  Average Social Security Wage Base multiplied by Pension  Credited Service not to exceed 35 years; plus  (iii) 1.0% of Average Compensation multiplied by Pension Credited  Service in excess 35 years; minus  (iv) The monthly Normal Retirement Benefit amount payable to the  Participant under the Emerson Plan, in the Normal Form (e.g.,  the Emerson Plan accrued benefit).  Notwithstanding the preceding, a Participant’s Normal Retirement Benefit (before offset by the  amount described in (iv) above) shall not be less than the Participant’s Normal Retirement  Benefit as of December 31, 1994, as reported by the Administrator of the Emerson Plan.  This  amount, after reduction by the amount described in (iv) above, shall be referred to in subsection  (b) as the Participant’s Grandfathered Normal Retirement Benefit.  (b) Early Retirement Reduction Factor(s).  A Participant who retires at his or  her Early Retirement Date shall receive a monthly Early Retirement Benefit equal to his or her  monthly Normal Retirement Benefit, reduced for each month by which the Annuity Starting Date  of the Participant precedes his or her Normal Retirement Date at the rate of 1/4% for each such  month between the first day of the month on or after the 55th and 60th birthdays of the  Participant, and at the rate of 1/6% for each such month between the first day of the month on or  after 60th birthday of the Participant and his or her Normal Retirement Date.

If a Participant has completed 10 or more years of Pension Credited  Service but not 30 years of Pension Credited Service, his or her Early Retirement Benefit shall  not be less than the Participant’s Grandfathered Normal Retirement Benefit reduced for those  months by which the Annuity Starting Date of the Participant precedes his or her Normal  Retirement Date at the rate 1/3% for each such month between the first day of the month on or  after the 55th and 60th birthdays of the Participant, and at the rate of 1/2% for those months  

 

  L-11  4841-1404-2944.2  between the first day of the month on or after the 60th birthday of the Participant and his or her  Retirement Date.  (c) Late Retirement Benefit.  A Participant who retires at his or her Late  Retirement Date shall receive a monthly Late Retirement Benefit equal to the benefit he or she  would have received at his or her Normal Retirement Date but based upon his or her Benefit  Factors up to his or her actual retirement.  If an Employee continues working for an Employer or  any Affiliate after his or her Normal Retirement Date, then the Employer shall notify the  Employee during the first calendar month of the payroll period in which the Participant attains  Normal Retirement Age that his benefits will not commence until the earlier of his or her actual  retirement or, if applicable, his or her Required Beginning Date.  Such notification shall contain  a description of the specific reasons why benefit payments are being suspended, a general  description of the Plan provisions relating to the suspension of payments, a copy of such Plan  provisions, information regarding the Plan’s procedure for affording a review of the suspension  of benefits, and a statement to the effect that applicable Department of Labor regulations may be  found in section 2530.203-3 of Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations.  Section 3.02. Disregard of Accrued Benefit.  If a Participant receives a single  sum payment equal to the Actuarial Equivalent present value of his or her entire vested Accrued  Benefit, then his or her entire Accrued Benefit as of the date of the distribution shall be  disregarded.  If the Actuarial Equivalent present value of a Participant’s vested Accrued Benefit  was zero and he or she was deemed to have received a distribution of such present value of his  entire vested Accrued Benefit, and he or she again becomes an Eligible Employee before the end  of the first period of five (5) consecutive one-year Periods of Severance that begin after the date  of the deemed distribution, upon the date he or she again performs an Hour of Service as an  Eligible Employee, the Employer-derived Accrued Benefit (including all optional forms of  benefits and subsidies relating to such benefits) shall be restored to the amount of such Accrued  Benefit on the date of the deemed distribution.    

 

  L-12  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE IV. OTHER BENEFITS  Section 4.01. Death Benefits.  (a) If a vested Participant dies before his or her Annuity Starting Date, the  only death benefits payable shall be the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity.  (b) If a Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity becomes payable pursuant  to subsection (a), the Participant’s surviving Spouse shall be paid, commencing on the first day  of the month following the later of the Participant’s death or the date the Participant would have  attained his or her Early Retirement Age, a survivor annuity for the life of the surviving Spouse;  provided, however, that distribution to the surviving Spouse shall not be made prior to the date  the Participant would have attained his or her Normal Retirement Age without the consent of the  surviving Spouse. Benefits must start by the date the Participant would have been age 701⁄2. If the  Spouse dies before the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity starts, no death benefits are  payable hereunder.  (c) If the Participant is employed by the Employer at the time of his or her  death, then the amount payable to the Participant’s surviving Spouse in the form of a Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be fifty percent (50%) of the amount calculated under  Section 3.01 of this Part based on the Pension Credited Service accrued as of the date of his or  her death, reduced by the early retirement reduction factors if the death benefit begins before the  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date.  If the Participant is not employed at the time of his or her  death, the amount payable to the Participant’s surviving Spouse in the form of a Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be fifty percent (50%) of the amount calculated under  Section 3.01 of this Part based on the Pension Credited Service accrued as of the date of his or  her death, with the following adjustments:  (i) The benefit shall be reduced by the actuarial factors used to  convert the benefit under Section 3.02 to a Qualified Joint and  Survivor Annuity; and  (ii) The early retirement reduction factors shall be applied if the  death benefit begins before the Participant’s Normal Retirement  Date.  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant elects within ninety (90)  days before the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date a survivorship annuity providing a greater  than fifty percent (50%) death benefit and the Contingent Annuitant is the Participant’s Spouse,  then such greater percentage shall be paid in lieu of the fifty percent (50%) benefit described in  subsection (c) above. Such election must be a qualified election according to the provisions of  Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Master Plan Document.    

 

  L-13  4841-1404-2944.2  Section 4.02. Vested Benefits.A Participant whose employment is terminated  after he or she has earned at least five (5) years of Vesting Service shall be entitled to a benefit as  described in this section.  (b) A person whose employment is terminated other than by death before he  or she has earned five (5) years of Vesting Service or reached Normal Retirement Age shall  receive no benefit under this Plan.  (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Participant who dies  while employed with the Employer or who remains in employment with the Employer until the  date he or she satisfies the requirements for Normal Retirement Age shall have a one-hundred  percent (100%) nonforfeitable right to his or her Accrued Benefit.

(ii) If the Participant has satisfied the Early Retirement Age and  Service Requirements, a deferred monthly retirement benefit  under the Normal Form to begin on his or her Early Retirement  Date.  The deferred retirement benefit shall be equal to the  amount under (i) above multiplied by the applicable early  retirement factor set forth in Section 3.01(b).  (iii) A deferred monthly retirement benefit under the Normal Form to  begin on his or her Late Retirement Date.  The deferred  retirement benefit shall be determined as follows:  (A) For a Participant who became an inactive Participant on or  before his or her Normal Retirement Date, an amount equal  to the amount under (i) above multiplied by the late  retirement factor in Article III that corresponds to the  number of years his or her Late Retirement Date follows  his Normal Retirement Date.  (B)  For a Participant who became an inactive Participant after  his or her Normal Retirement Date, an amount equal to the  greater of (1) or (2) below:  (1) The Participant’s Accrued Benefit on the day before  the date he or she became an inactive Participant.  (2) His or her Accrued Benefit on his or her Normal  Retirement Date actuarially adjusted to reflect the  

 

  L-14  4841-1404-2944.2  delay in commencement of benefits after his or her  Normal Retirement Date.  Provided, however, for an inactive Participant whose Late  Retirement Date occurs after the April 1 following the calendar  year in which he or she attains age 701⁄2, such Participant’s  deferred monthly retirement benefit determined in (1) or (2) above,  whichever applies, shall be actuarially adjusted to reflect the delay  in commencement of benefits after such April 1 date.  Any distribution of vested benefits shall be a retirement benefit and shall be  subject to the distribution of benefits provisions of Article V and the provisions of Section 3.06  of the Master Plan Document.  The Participant’s Accrued Benefit shall be calculated on the day  before he or she became an inactive Participant.  The amount of payment under any form (other  than the Normal Form) shall be determined as provided under Section 3.02 of the Master Plan  Document.  If the Participant dies before his or her Annuity Starting Date, death benefits shall  be distributed according to the provisions of Section 4.01.

Suspension of Benefits Upon Reemployment.  In the event a Participant who is receiving benefits under the Plan returns to the  full-time employment of the Employer (as defined in the Employer’s employment practices)  prior to his or her Required Beginning Date, payment of his or her benefits will continue.  Upon  his or her subsequent termination of employment with the Employer, the Participant shall  continue to receive the benefit he or she was receiving during the period of reemployment;  provided that, if the Participant’s most recent termination of employment occurred prior to  January 1, 2018, then, to the extent the law so requires, in no event shall the Participant receive a  benefit that is less valuable, on an actuarial basis, than the benefits to which he or she would be  entitled under the Plan as in effect on the date of such subsequent termination, taking into  account his or her age at the time of such subsequent termination and his or her Benefit Factors

The purpose of this Part M is to provide benefits for Eligible Employees equal to the sum of their  benefit with their prior employer(s) as calculated under the Emerson Electric Co. Retirement  Plan (including Appendix 79 thereto) (the “Emerson Plan”) and their benefit provided with the  Employer for periods on and after January 30, 2015, but then offset by the benefits that will be  provided under the Emerson Plan.  The following designations and provisions shall apply only to  persons who are Eligible Employees under this Part.  

 

  M-2  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE I. DEFINITIONS AND FORMAT OF TERMS  Section 1.01. Format.  Capitalized words and phrases defined in Section 1.02  shall have that defined meaning when used in this Part, unless the context clearly indicates  otherwise.  Additional capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 1.01 of the Master  Plan Document.  Similarly, cross references in this Part shall apply to the referenced section in  this Part, unless specifically referred to as a section of the Master Plan Document.  Section 1.02. Definitions.  (a) “Actuarial Equivalent” means, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the  contrary, a benefit of equivalent value calculated using the table in Exhibit M-1 of this Part M.  (b) “Contingent Annuitant” means an individual named by the Participant to  receive a benefit after the Participant’s death in accordance with a survivorship annuity.  (c)  “Early Retirement Age and Service Requirements” means age fifty-five  (55) with ten (10) years of Pension Credited Service.  (d) “Early Retirement Date” means the first day of any month before a  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date that the Participant selects as his or her Annuity Starting  Date.  This day shall be on or after the date he or she has a Severance from Employment and  satisfies the Early Retirement Age and Service Requirements.  (e) “Eligible Employee” means an Employee who is classified by the  Employer as a non-union hourly employee of McGill Manufacturing Company, Inc., at its  Bearings Division, Monticello, Indiana Plant and is employed in such classification on January  30, 2015.  A person who by written contract has waived coverage under the Plan shall not be  considered an Eligible Employee.  (f) “Employment Commencement Date” means the date an Employee first  performs an Hour of Service.  (g) “Late Retirement Date” means the first day of any month that is after a  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date and on which retirement benefits begin.  If a Participant  continues to work for the Employer after his or her Normal Retirement Date, his or her Late  Retirement Date shall be the first day of the month on or after the date he or she has a Severance  from Employment.  (h) “Normal Form” means a single life annuity.  (i) “Normal Retirement Age” means age sixty-five (65).  (j) “Normal Retirement Benefit” means the Participant’s Accrued Benefit.

  M-3  4841-1404-2944.2  (l) “Parental Absence” means an Employee’s absence from work:  (i) by reason of the pregnancy of the Employee,  (ii) by reason of the birth of a child of the Employee,  (iii) by reason of the placement of a child with the Employee in  connection with adoption of such child by such Employee, or  (iv) for purposes of caring for such child for a period beginning  immediately following such birth or placement.  (m) “Pension Credited Service” means a service period determined using the  elapsed time method.  For periods prior to January 30, 2015, Pension Credited Service is the  service as credited under the Emerson Plan, as reported to the Administrator by the Emerson  Plan.  For periods on or after January 30, 2015, an Eligible Employee shall accrue Pension  Credited Service equaling his or her Periods of Service, subject to the rules in Section 2.04.  When determining Pension Credited Service for all purposes, all periods of any  Employer-approved leave of absence described in Section 2.04 shall be included as Pension  Credited Service for the location to which the leave relates; provided, however, that if a  Participant, in the case of an unpaid leave of absence, does not return to active employment  immediately following the expiration of his or her leave and has not terminated employment at  his or her Early, Normal or Late Retirement Date or died during the term of the leave of absence,  the Participant shall be considered to have terminated employment for purposes of the Plan as of  the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the date the leave of absence of the Participant  commenced; or (ii) the last day of the term of the leave of absence of the Participant.  When determining Pension Credited Service for all purposes other than vesting,  no portion of a Participant’s Periods of Severance shall be counted.  When determining Pension Credited Service for benefit accrual purposes, services  while other than an Eligible Employee shall not be counted.  When determining Pension Credited Service for vesting purposes, the following  special rule shall apply:  a full year of Pension Credited Service shall be granted for the twelve  (12) month period commencing on the Participant’s employment anniversary date next preceding  his or her termination of employment date if the Participant completes 1,000 Hours of Service  during the portion of such period before his or her termination of employment date; otherwise,  the Participant shall be granted a fractional year of Pension Credited Service for the period  between such employment anniversary date and his or her termination of employment date  calculated in completed months, and any portion of a month in excess of a whole number of  months during that period shall be counted as a completed month.  However, if such a Participant  is rehired before twelve (12) months have elapsed since his or her termination of employment  date and thereby receives Pension Credited Service for vesting purposes for his or her Severance  Period between his or her date of termination of employment and his or her date of rehire, the  preceding sentence shall not apply.  

 

  M-4  4841-1404-2944.2  (n) “Period of Service” means a period of time beginning on an Employee’s  Employment Commencement Date or Reemployment Commencement Date (whichever applies)  and ending on his most recent Severance Date.  For purposes of calculating an Employee’s  Period of Service, the following rules shall apply:  (i) A Period of Service shall be expressed as years and fractional  parts of a year (to two decimal places) on the basis that 365 days  equal one year.  (ii) A Period of Severance shall be deemed to be a Period of Service  under either of the following conditions:  (A) the Period of  Severance immediately follows a period during which an  Employee is not absent from work and ends within twelve (12)  months; or (B) the Period of Severance immediately follows a  period during which an Employee is absent from work for any  reason other than quitting, being discharged, or retiring (such as  a leave of absence or layoff) and ends within twelve (12) months  of the date he or she was first absent.  (iii) A Period of Service shall be reduced by (A) all or any part of a  Period of Service that is not counted pursuant to the rules set  forth in this Plan and/or (B) any Period of Severance that  occurred prior to an Employee’s most recent Severance Date,  unless such Period of Severance is included under the service  spanning rules described in (ii) above.  (o) “Period of Severance” means a period of time beginning on an  Employee’s Severance Date and ending on the date he or she again performs an Hour of Service.   A one-year Period of Severance means a Period of Severance of twelve (12) consecutive months.   Solely for purposes of determining whether a one-year Period of Severance has occurred for  eligibility or vesting purposes, the consecutive twelve (12) month period beginning on the first  anniversary of the first date of a Parental Absence shall not be a one-year Period of Severance.  (p) “Permanent and Total Disability” (or derivations thereof) means that an  Eligible Employee is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of a  medically determinable physical or mental disability which has existed for six (6) continuous  months and which, in the opinion of the qualified physician selected by the Administrator, can  reasonably be expected to continue for the balance of his or her life, exclusive of disability  resulting from service in the Armed Forces for which he or she received a military pension,  intentional self-inflicted injury, participation in a felonious criminal act, or habitual excessive use  of intoxicants, drugs or narcotics.  The Administrator shall have the responsibility for  determining whether a Participant has incurred a disability and, before approving payment of any  disability retirement benefit, may require reasonable proof of such disability.  (q) “Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity” means, for a Participant who has a  Spouse, an immediate survivorship life annuity, where the survivorship percentage is fifty  percent (50%) and the Contingent Annuitant is the Participant’s Spouse. A former spouse will be  

 

  M-5  4841-1404-2944.2  treated as the Spouse to the extent provided under a qualified domestic relations order as  described in Code Section 414(p).  This Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be at least the Actuarial Equivalent of any form  of annuity benefit offered under the Plan.  (r) “Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity” means a straight life annuity  payable to the surviving Spouse of a Participant who dies before his Annuity Starting Date with a  vested benefit hereunder calculated as provided in Section 4.01. A former Spouse will be treated  as the surviving Spouse to the extent provided under a qualified domestic relations order as  described in Code Section 414(p).  (s) “Reemployment Commencement Date” means the date an Employee first  performs an Hour of Service following a Period of Severance.  (t) “Severance Date” means the earlier of:  (i) the date on which an Employee quits, retires, dies, or is  discharged, or  (ii) the first anniversary of the first date an Employee is absent from  service (with or without pay).  This absence may be the result of  any combination of reasons, including vacation, holiday,  sickness, disability, leave of absence, or layoff, but excluding  quit, retirement, discharge or death.  Solely to determine whether a one-year Period of Severance has occurred for eligibility or  vesting purposes for an Employee who is absent from service beyond the first anniversary of the  first day of a Parental Absence, the Severance Date is the second anniversary of the first day of  the Parental Absence.  The period between the first and second anniversaries of the first day of  the Parental Absence is not a Period of Service and is not a Period of Severance.  (u) “Severance from Employment” means an Employee has ceased to be an  Employee.  (v) “Spouse” means either (i) the person to whom a Participant is lawfully  married on his or her Annuity Starting Date or (ii) in the event the Participant dies prior to his or  her Annuity Starting Date, the person to whom the Participant was married throughout the ninety  (90) day period preceding the Participant’s death.  For purposes hereof, “lawfully married”  means legally married (A) under the laws of the United States (or one of the United States) or  any other generally recognized jurisdiction and (B) for federal tax purposes.  (w) “Vesting Service” – see Pension Credited Service.  

 

  M-6  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE II. PARTICIPATION AND SERVICE  Section 2.01. Eligibility.  Each Eligible Employee who was a “Participant” under  Appendix 79 of the Emerson Plan on January 29, 2015 shall become a Participant hereunder on  January 30, 2015.  No individual who is employed or re-employed after January 30, 2015 shall  become a Participant hereunder.  Section 2.02. Inactive Participant.  (a) An active Participant shall become an inactive Participant (stop accruing  benefits) on the earliest of the following:  (i) The date he or she ceases to be an Eligible Employee.  (ii) The effective date of complete termination of the Plan under  Section 6.02 of the Master Plan Document.  (iii) Their Severance from Employment date.  (b) An inactive participant or a former Participant shall not again become an  active participant (shall not resume active participation in the Plan).  Section 2.03. Cessation of Participation.  A Participant, whether active or  inactive, shall cease to be a Participant on the earlier of the following:  (a) The date of his death.  (b) The date he or she receives a single sum distribution in satisfaction of all  of his or her benefits under the Plan.  An inactive participant shall also cease to be a Participant on the earliest date on  which he or she is not entitled to a deferred monthly income under Section 7.07 of the Master  Plan Document.  An individual who ceases to be a Participant hereunder shall not resume  participation at any later date.  Section 2.04. Calculation of Pension Credited Service.  (a) Disregarded Service.  If a person’s employment with the Employer and its  Affiliates is terminated when he or she has no nonforfeitable right to a benefit derived from  Employer contributions under the Plan, then if the number of days in the Employee’s Period of  Severance equals or exceeds the greater of six (6) years or one year plus his or her Period of  Service, whether or not consecutive, completed before such Period of Severance, then any Period  of Service accrued prior to such break in service shall be disregarded.  (b) Service with Foreign Corporation.  A Participant who leaves the  employment of the Employer and its Affiliates to accept employment with a corporation which is  

 

  M-7  4841-1404-2944.2  directly or indirectly owned fifty percent (50%) or more by the Company or an Affiliate but  which is organized outside of the United States, or to accept employment (at the written request  of the Employer) with any other corporation organized outside of the United States, shall, if he or  she thereafter returns to employment in the United States with the Employer or its Affiliates for  at least twelve (12) months, earn benefits as if he or she had continued in the employment of the  Employer and its Affiliates for the period of such foreign employment; provided, however, that  any benefits credited for such period shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any  foreign pension or severance payment earned during such period.  (c) Disability Accrual.  Except as may be provided otherwise in this Part, a  Participant who becomes disabled while employed by the Employer or its Affiliates and who is  receiving disability benefits pursuant to the Social Security Laws shall for the purposes of this  Plan be considered as having continued in the employment of the Employer, so long as he or she  continues to receive such benefits, until the earliest of (i) the date he or she is no longer  permanently and totally disabled, (ii) the date he or she has attained his or her Normal  Retirement Date, (iii) his or her Annuity Starting Date, or (iv) the date he or she dies.  (d) Leaves of Absence.  A Participant under this Part on an Employer- approved leave of absence not described in Section 2.04 of the Master Plan Document shall be  considered as having continued in the employment of the Employer for the period such leave of  absence up to a maximum of two (2) years, provided such person (i) applies for and accepts (if  offered) reemployment with the Employer or its Affiliates, and (ii) completes at least one (1)  Year of Service with the Employer or its Affiliates after the completion of such leave of absence.  Such approved leaves of absence shall be given on a uniform non-discriminatory basis.    

 

  M-8  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE III. RETIREMENT BENEFITS  Section 3.01. Retirement Benefits.  (a) Normal Retirement Benefit. A Participant who terminates employment  from the Company and its Affiliates at his or her Normal Retirement Date may commence  receiving his or her vested Normal Retirement Benefit.  The monthly Normal Retirement Benefit  shall equal eighteen dollars and fifty cents ($18.50) multiplied by his or her years (and fractions  thereof) of Pension Credited Service, reduced by the normal retirement benefit payable for such  Participant under the Emerson Plan (e.g., the Emerson Plan accrued benefit).  (b) Early Retirement Benefit. A Participant who terminates employment from  the Company and its Affiliates after meeting the Early Retirement Age and Service Requirement  and before Normal Retirement Age shall be entitled to receive a monthly Early Retirement  Benefit equal to his or her monthly Normal Retirement Benefit, reduced as follows:  (i) If a Participant has not completed 30 or more years of Pension  Credited Service at his or her Annuity Starting Date, the amount  so determined shall be reduced for each month by which the  Annuity Starting Date of the Participant precedes his or her  Normal Retirement Date at the rate of 1/3% for each such month  between the first day of the month on or after the 55th and 60th  birthdays of the Participant, and at the rate of 1/2% for each such  month between the first day of the month on or after the 60th  birthday of the Participant and his or her Normal Retirement  Date.  (ii) If a Participant has completed at least 30 years of Pension  Credited Service at his or her Annuity Starting Date, the amounts  so determined shall be reduced for each month by which the  Annuity Starting Date of the Participant precedes his or her  Normal Retirement Date at the rate of 1/3% for each such month  between the first day of the month on or after the 55th and 60th  birthdays of the Participant, and at the rate of 1/2% for each such  month between the first day of the month on or after the 60th and  62nd birthdays of the Participant.  (c) Late Retirement Benefit. A Participant who terminates employment from  the Company and its Affiliates after Normal Retirement Age shall receive a monthly postponed  Retirement Benefit equal to the benefit he or she would have received at his or her Normal  Retirement Date but based upon his or her Pension Credited Service up to his or her actual  retirement.  If an Employee continues working for an Employer or any Affiliate after his Normal  Retirement Date, then the suspension of benefits provisions of Section 3.08 of the Master Plan  Document shall apply.  

 

  M-9  4841-1404-2944.2  Section 3.02. Disregard of Accrued Benefit.  If a Participant receives a single  sum payment equal to the Actuarial Equivalent present value of his or her entire vested Accrued  Benefit, then his or her entire Accrued Benefit as of the date of the distribution shall be  disregarded.  If the Actuarial Equivalent present value of a Participant’s vested Accrued Benefit  was zero and he or she was deemed to have received a distribution of such present value of his  entire vested Accrued Benefit, and he or she again becomes an Eligible Employee before the end  of the first period of five (5) consecutive one-year Periods of Severance that begin after the date  of the deemed distribution, upon the date he or she again performs an Hour of Service as an  Eligible Employee, the Employer derived Accrued Benefit (including all optional forms of  benefits and subsidies relating to such benefits) shall be restored to the amount of such Accrued  Benefit on the date of the deemed distribution.    

 

  M-10  4841-1404-2944.2  ARTICLE IV. OTHER BENEFITS  Section 4.01. Death Benefits.  (a) If a vested Participant dies before his or her Annuity Starting Date, the  only death benefits payable shall be the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity.  (b) If a Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity becomes payable pursuant  to subsection (a), the Participant’s surviving Spouse shall be paid, commencing on the first day  of the month following the later of the Participant’s death or the date the Participant would have  attained his or her Early Retirement Age, a survivor annuity for the life of the surviving Spouse;  provided, however, that distribution to the surviving Spouse shall not be made prior to the date  the Participant would have attained his or her Normal Retirement Age without the consent of the  surviving Spouse. Benefits must start by the date the Participant would have been age 701⁄2. If the  Spouse dies before the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity starts, no death benefits are  payable hereunder.  (c) If the Participant is employed by the Employer at the time of his or her  death, then the amount payable to the Participant’s surviving Spouse in the form of a Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be fifty percent (50%) of the amount calculated under  Section 3.01 of this Part based on the Pension Credited Service accrued as of the date of his or  her death, reduced by the early retirement reduction factors if the death benefit begins before the  Participant’s Normal Retirement Date.  If the Participant is not employed at the time of his or her  death, the amount payable to the Participant’s surviving Spouse in the form of a Qualified  Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be fifty percent (50%) of the amount calculated under  Section 3.01 of this Part based on the Pension Credited Service accrued as of the date of his or  her death, with the following adjustments:  (i) The benefit shall be reduced by the actuarial factors used to  convert the benefit under Section 3.02 to a Qualified Joint and  Survivor Annuity; and  (ii) The early retirement reduction factors shall be applied if the  death benefit begins before the Participant’s Normal Retirement  Date.  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant elects within ninety (90)  days before the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date a survivorship annuity providing a greater  than fifty percent (50%) death benefit and the Contingent Annuitant is the Participant’s Spouse,  then such greater percentage shall be paid in lieu of the fifty percent (50%) benefit described in  subsection (c) above. Such election must be a qualified election according to the provisions of  Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Master Plan Document.    Section 4.02. Disability Benefits.  (a) Disability Benefit Exception. A Participant who:  (i) has twenty (20) years  (ten (10) years if hired on or before July 1, 1989) of Pension Credited Service; (ii) has attained  age 40; and (iii) has met the requirements for Permanent and Total Disability (while working as  

 

  M-11  4841-1404-2944.2  an Eligible Employee), shall receive a monthly Disability Benefit, beginning with the date he or  she is eligible to receive disability benefits under the Social Security Act.  The monthly  Disability Benefit shall be a monthly amount equal to the benefit to which he or she would be  entitled at his or her Normal Retirement Date as calculated under Section 3.01 but based on his  or her Pension Credited Service accrued as of the first day of the month coincident with or next  following the date the Participant is determined to be Permanently and Totally Disabled, reduced  by any lump sum payment due on account of workers compensation or occupational disease  laws.  No disability benefit shall be due until such lump sum, as so charged on a monthly basis  against the monthly disability retirement benefit otherwise payable under the Plan, is exhausted.   Such Disability Benefit shall continue until the Participant ceases to be Permanently and Totally  Disabled, dies, or reaches his or her Normal Retirement Date or Annuity Starting Date.  If the  disabled Participant is not entitled to receive disability benefits for any period after his or her  Normal Retirement Date pursuant to a long term disability plan maintained by the Employer, he  or she will be deemed to be retired on his or her Normal Retirement Date and shall be eligible to  begin to receive a Normal Retirement Benefit, in accordance with the Plan’s procedures  (including the requirement that an application for benefits be made).  If the disabled Participant  is entitled to receive disability benefits for any period after his or her Normal Retirement Date  pursuant to a long term disability plan maintained by the Employer, he or she shall continue to  receive his or her Disability Benefit hereunder, and when his or her benefit pursuant to such long  term disability plan ceases, his or her Disability Benefit hereunder shall cease and he or she shall  be deemed to be retired at his or her late Retirement Date and shall be eligible to receive a late  Retirement Benefit, in accordance with the Plan’s procedures (including the requirement that an  application for benefits be made).  In calculating the Early Retirement Benefit (if any), Normal  Retirement Benefit, or late Retirement Benefit, for purposes of this Section, only the Pension  Credited Service earned before the Participant became Permanently and Totally Disabled shall  be counted.  Section 4.03. Vested Benefits.  (a) A Participant whose employment is terminated after he or she has earned  at least five (5) years of Vesting Service shall be entitled to a benefit as described in this section.  (b) A person whose employment is terminated other than by death before he  or she has earned five (5) years of Vesting Service or reached Normal Retirement Age shall  receive no benefit under this Plan.  (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Participant who dies  while employed with the Employer or who remains in employment with the Employer until the  date he or she satisfies the requirements for Normal Retirement Age shall have a one-hundred  percent (100%) nonforfeitable right to his or her Accrued Benefit.  (d) A Participant who becomes an inactive Participant before retirement or  death (and, if applicable, before the date a disability payment begins under Section 4.02) will be  entitled to one of the following, whichever is applicable:  (i) Payment of his Accrued Benefit to begin on his or her Normal  Retirement Date.  

 

  M-12  4841-1404-2944.2  (ii) If the Participant has satisfied the Early Retirement Age and  Service Requirements, a deferred monthly retirement benefit  under the Normal Form to begin on his or her Early Retirement  Date.  The deferred retirement benefit shall be equal to the  amount under (i) above multiplied by the applicable early  retirement factor set forth in Section 3.01(b).  (iii) A deferred monthly retirement benefit under the Normal Form to  begin on his Late Retirement Date.  The deferred retirement  benefit shall be determined as follows:  (A) For a Participant who became an inactive Participant on or  before his or her Normal Retirement Date, an amount equal  to the amount under (i) above multiplied by the late  retirement factor in Article III that corresponds to the  number of years his Late Retirement Date follows his  Normal Retirement Date.  (B) For a Participant who became an inactive Participant after  his or her Normal Retirement Date, an amount equal to the  greater of (1) or (2) below:  (1) The Participant’s Accrued Benefit on the day before  the date he or she became an inactive Participant.  (2)  His or her Accrued Benefit on his or her Normal  Retirement Date actuarially adjusted to reflect the  delay in commencement of benefits after his  Normal Retirement Date.  Provided, however, for an inactive Participant whose Late  Retirement Date occurs after the April 1 following the calendar  year in which he or she attains age 701⁄2, such Participant’s  deferred monthly retirement benefit determined in (1) or (2) above,  whichever applies, shall be actuarially adjusted to reflect the delay  in commencement of benefits after such April 1 date.  Any distribution of vested benefits shall be a retirement benefit and shall be  subject to the distribution of benefits provisions of Article V and the provisions of Section 3.06  of the Master Plan Document.  The Participant’s Accrued Benefit shall be calculated on the day  before he or she became an inactive Participant.  The amount of payment under any form (other  than the Normal Form) shall be determined as provided under Section 3.02 of the Master Plan  Document.

For this purpose, a full-value Award includes Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units (valued in relation to a Share), Deferred Stock Rights and any other similar Award under which the value of the Award is measured as the full value of a Share, rather than the increase in the value of a Share.  For purposes of determining the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, any fractional Share shall be rounded to the next highest full Share.
(b)Incentive Stock Option Award Limits.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 16, the Company may issue only an aggregate of Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) Shares upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options.  
(c)Replenishment of Shares Under this Plan.  If (i) an Award lapses, expires, terminates or is cancelled without the issuance of all of the Shares under the Award (whether due currently or on a deferred basis), (ii) it is determined during or at the conclusion of the term of an Award that all or some portion of the Shares with respect to which the Award was granted will not be issuable on the basis that the conditions for such issuance will not be satisfied, (iii) Shares are forfeited under an Award or (iv) Shares are issued under any Award and the Company subsequently reacquires them pursuant to rights reserved upon the issuance of the Shares, then such Shares shall be recredited to the Plan’s reserve (in the same number as they depleted the reserve) and may again be used for new Awards under this Plan, but Shares recredited to the Plan’s reserve pursuant to clause (iv) may not be issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the following Shares be recredited to the Plan’s reserve: Shares tendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of an Option or as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding SAR; Shares withheld to satisfy federal, state or local tax withholding obligations; and Shares purchased by the Company using proceeds from Option exercises.
(d)Addition of Shares from Prior Plan.  After the Effective Date, if any Shares subject to awards granted under the Prior Plan would again become available for new grants under the terms of such plans if such plans were still in effect (taking into account such plan’s provisions concerning termination or expiration, if any), then those Shares will be available for the purpose of granting Awards under this Plan, thereby increasing the number of Shares available for issuance under this Plan as determined under Section 6(a). Any such Shares will not be available for future awards under the terms of the Prior Plan.
(e)Director Award Limit. In no event shall the aggregate grant date value (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) of all Awards granted to a Non-Employee Director in a fiscal year of the Company, taken together with any cash fees paid during a calendar year to the Non-Employee Director, exceed $500,000. 
7.Options.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each Option, including but not limited to: 
(a)Whether the Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a “nonqualified stock option” which does not meet the requirements of Code Section 422; 
(b)The number of Shares subject to the Option; 
8
4846-1436-1435.4

(c)The date of grant, which may not be prior to the date of the Administrator’s approval of the grant;
(d)The exercise price, which may not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option as determined on the date of grant; provided that an Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% Shareholder must have an exercise price at least equal to 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option as determined on the date of grant; 
(e)The terms and conditions of exercise, including the manner and form of payment of the exercise price; provided that if the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to all ISOs granted to a Participant (as determined on the date of grant of each such Option) that become exercisable during a calendar year exceed $100,000, then such ISOs shall be treated as nonqualified stock options to the extent such $100,000 limitation is exceeded; and
(f)The term; provided that each Option must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant and each Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% Shareholder must terminate no later than five (5) years after the date of grant. 
In all other respects, the terms of any Incentive Stock Option should comply with the provisions of Code Section 422 except to the extent the Administrator determines otherwise.   If an Option that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option fails to meet the requirements thereof, the Option shall automatically be treated as a nonqualified stock option to the extent of such failure.
8.Stock Appreciation Rights. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each SAR, including but not limited to: 
(a)Whether the SAR is granted independently of an Option or relates to an Option; 
(b)The number of Shares to which the SAR relates; 
(c)The date of grant, which may not be prior to the date of the Administrator’s approval of the grant;
(d)The grant price, provided that the grant price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the SAR as determined on the date of grant; 
(e)The terms and conditions of exercise or maturity; 
(f)The term, provided that each SAR must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant; and 
(g)Whether the SAR will be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof. 
If an SAR is granted in relation to an Option, then, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the SAR shall be exercisable or shall mature at the same time or times, on the same conditions and to the extent and in the proportion, that the related Option is exercisable and may be exercised or mature for all or part of the Shares subject to the related Option. Upon exercise of any number of SARs, the number of Shares subject to the related Option shall be reduced accordingly and such Option may not be exercised with respect to that number of Shares.  The exercise of any number of Options that relate to an SAR shall likewise result in an equivalent reduction in the number of Shares covered by the related SAR.
9.Performance and Stock Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each award of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Deferred Stock Rights, Performance Shares or Performance Units, including but not limited to: 
(a)The number of Shares and/or units to which such Award relates; 
9
4846-1436-1435.4

(b)Whether, as a condition for the Participant to realize all or a portion of the benefit provided under the Award, one or more Performance Goals must be achieved during such period as the Administrator specifies; 
(c)The performance period for Performance Awards (which must be at least one (1) year or run from annual meeting date to annual meeting date, subject to the provisions of Sections 3, 13 and 17);
(d)With respect to Performance Units, whether to measure the value of each unit in relation to a designated dollar value or the Fair Market Value of one or more Shares; and 
(e)With respect to Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units, whether to settle such Awards in cash, in Shares, or a combination thereof. 
Unless the Administrator shall otherwise provide, during the time Restricted Stock is subject to the Restriction Period, (1) to the extent not prohibited by law, the Participant shall be deemed to have appointed the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Corporate Secretary, and each of them, as proxies, each with the power to appoint a substitute, authorizing them to represent and to vote the Participant’s Restricted Stock in accordance with the Board’s recommendations on all matters that are submitted to a shareholder vote (such appointment being irrevocable and coupled with an interest and extending until the expiration of the Restriction Period) and (2) the Participant shall have the right to receive any dividends paid with respect to such Stock; provided that such dividends shall be subject to the same conditions and restrictions applicable to such Stock and shall not be paid currently but shall be accrued and paid within thirty (30) days of such time as all applicable restrictions lapse and the Restriction Period expires.
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, at such time as all restrictions applicable to an Award of Restricted Stock, Deferred Stock Rights or Restricted Stock Units are met and the Restriction Period expires, ownership of the Stock subject to such restrictions shall be transferred to the Participant free of all restrictions except those that may be imposed by applicable law; provided that if Restricted Stock Units are paid in cash, the payment shall be made to the Participant after all applicable restrictions lapse and the Restriction Period expires.  
10.Dividend Equivalent Units.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each award of Dividend Equivalent Units, including but not limited to whether: (a) such Award will be granted in tandem with another Award; (b) payment of the Award be made currently or credited to an account for the Participant that provides for the deferral of such amounts until a stated time; and (c) the Award will be settled in cash or Shares; provided that Dividend Equivalent Units may be granted only in connection with a “full-value” Award as defined in Section 6(a) and may not may not be granted in connection with Options or SARs; and provided further that each Dividend Equivalent Unit granted in tandem with another Award shall provide for payment only if, when, and only to the same extent as, such other Award vests; and provided further that, to the extent settled in cash, Dividend Equivalent Units shall not deplete the number of Shares reserved under Section 6(a).
11.Other Stock-Based Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator may grant to Participants other types of Awards, which shall be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, Shares, either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other Awards, and payable in Stock or cash.  Without limitation, such Award may include the issuance of unrestricted Shares, which may be awarded in payment of director fees, in lieu of cash compensation, in exchange for cancellation of a compensation right, as a bonus, upon the attainment of Performance Goals or otherwise, or rights to acquire Stock from the Company.  The Administrator shall determine all terms and conditions of the Award, including but not limited to, the time or times at which such Awards shall be made, and the number of Shares to be granted pursuant to such Awards or to which such Award shall relate; provided that any Award that provides for purchase rights shall be priced at 100% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant of the Award and provided further that any Dividend Equivalent Units relating to such Awards shall not be paid with respect to such Award prior to its vesting, and any dividend payable on any Share issued pursuant to this Section 11 shall be accumulated and paid if and only to the same extent as the Share vests.
10
4846-1436-1435.4

12.Minimum Vesting Period.  All Awards granted under the Plan shall have a minimum vesting period of one year from the date of grant, provided that such minimum vesting period will not apply in connection with (a) a Change of Control as provided in Section 17(c), (b) a Participant’s termination due to death or Disability, (c) a substitute award that does not reduce the vesting period of the award being replaced, or (d) Awards with respect to up to 5% of the total number of Shares reserved pursuant to Section 6(a).  For purposes of Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors, “one year” may mean the period of time from one annual shareholders meeting to the next annual shareholders meeting, provided that such period of time is not less than 50 weeks.
13.Effect of Termination on Awards.  Subject to the provisions of Section 12, if the Participant has in effect an employment, retention, change of control, severance or similar agreement with the Company or any Affiliate that discusses the effect of the Participant’s termination of employment or service on the Participant’s Awards, then such agreement shall control.  In any other case, subject to the provisions of Section 12, except as otherwise provided by the Administrator in an Award agreement or as determined by the Administrator prior to or at the time of termination of a Participant’s employment or service, the following provisions shall apply upon a Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates.
(a)Termination of Employment or Service.  If a Participant’s service with the Company and its Affiliates as an employee or Director ends for any reason other than (i) a termination for Cause, (ii) death or (iii) Disability, then:
(i)Any outstanding unvested Options or SARs shall be forfeited immediately upon such termination, and any outstanding vested Options or SARs shall be exercisable until the earlier of one hundred eighty (180) days following the Participant’s termination date and the expiration date of the Option or SAR under the terms of the applicable Award agreement.  
(ii)All other Awards made to the Participant, to the extent not then earned, vested or paid to the Participant, shall terminate on the Participant’s last day of employment or service.
(b)Death of Participant.  If a Participant dies during employment with the Company and its Affiliates or while a Director: 
(i)All outstanding unvested Options or SARs shall be forfeited immediately on the date of death, and any outstanding vested Options or SARS shall be exercisable by the Participant’s estate or the person who has acquired the right to exercise such Awards by bequest or inheritance.  The Participant’s estate, or any person who succeeds to the Participant’s benefits under the Plan, may exercise such Options or SARs until the earlier of twelve (12) months following the date of the Participant’s death and the expiration date of the Option or SAR under the terms of the applicable Award agreement.
(ii)All restrictions on all outstanding Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Units (that are not Performance Awards) shall be deemed to have lapsed on a prorated basis based on the portion of the Restriction Period that the Participant has completed on the date of death.  
(iii)All outstanding Deferred Stock Rights (that are not Performance Awards) shall be vested on a prorated basis based on the portion of the deferral period that the Participant has completed on the date of death.
(iv)All Performance Awards outstanding on the date of the Participant’s death shall be paid in either unrestricted Shares or cash, as the case may be, following the end of the performance period and based on achievement of the Performance Goals established for such Awards, as if the Participant had not died, but prorated based on the portion of the performance period that the Participant has completed at the time of death.
(c)Disability of Participant.  If a Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates or service as a Director terminates due to a Disability, then:
11
4846-1436-1435.4

(i)All outstanding unvested Options or SARs shall be forfeited immediately on such termination, and any outstanding vested Options or SARs shall be exercisable by the Participant until the earlier of twelve (12) months following the date of the Participant’s termination and the expiration date of the Option or SAR under the terms of the applicable Award agreement.  
(ii)All restrictions applicable to an outstanding Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Units (that are not Performance Awards) shall be deemed to have lapsed on a prorated basis, based on the portion of the Restriction Period the Participant completed as of the date of such termination.  
(iii)All outstanding Deferred Stock Rights (that are not Performance Awards) shall be vested on a prorated basis based on the portion of the deferral period that the Participant completed on the date of such termination.
(iv)All Performance Awards outstanding on the date of such termination shall be paid in either unrestricted Shares or cash, as the case may be, based on the degree to which the Participant had attained the applicable Performance Goals as of the date of such termination, but prorated based on the portion of the performance period that the Participant has completed at the time of termination.
(d)Termination for Cause.  If a Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates or service as a Director is terminated for Cause, all Awards and grants of every type, whether or not then vested, shall terminate no later than the Participant’s last day of employment.  The Committee shall have discretion to waive the application of this Section 13(d) in whole or in part and to determine whether the event or conduct at issue constitutes Cause for termination. 
(e)Consultants and Other Stock-Based Awards.  The Committee shall have the discretion to determine, at the time an Award is made, the effect of the termination of service of a Consultant on Awards held by such individual, and the effect on other Stock-based Awards of the Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates.
14.Transferability.  
(a)Restrictions on Transfer. No Award (other than unrestricted Shares), and no right under any such Award, shall be assignable, alienable, saleable, or transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; provided that, at the discretion of the Administrator, a Participant may be entitled, in the manner established by the Administrator, to designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise his or her rights, and to receive any property distributable, with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant.  No Award (other than unrestricted Shares), and no right under any such Award, may be pledged, attached or otherwise encumbered, and any purported pledge, attachment or encumbrance thereof shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate.
(b)Restrictions on Exercisability.  Each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by such individual or, if permissible under applicable law, by such individual’s guardian or legal representative. 
15.Termination and Amendment of Plan; Amendment, Modification or Cancellation of Awards.  
(a)Term of Plan.  Unless the Board or Committee earlier terminates this Plan pursuant to Section 15(b), this Plan will terminate on the date all Shares reserved for issuance have been issued.  If the term of this Plan extends beyond ten (10) years from the Effective Date, no Incentive Stock Options may be granted after such time unless the shareholders of the Company have approved an extension of this Plan.
12
4846-1436-1435.4

(b)Termination and Amendment.  The Board or the Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Plan at any time, subject to the following limitations: 
(i)the Board must approve any amendment of this Plan to the extent the Company determines such approval is required by: (A) action of the Board, (B) applicable corporate law, or (C) any other applicable law;
(ii)shareholders must approve any amendment of this Plan to the extent the Company determines such approval is required by: (A) Section 16 of the Exchange Act, (B) the Code, (C) the listing requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which the Shares are then traded, or (D) any other applicable law; and 
(iii)shareholders must approve any of the following Plan amendments: (A) an amendment to materially increase any number of Shares specified in Section 6(a) or 6(b) (except as permitted by Section 16), (B) an amendment to expand the group of individuals that may become Participants, or (C) an amendment that would diminish the protections afforded by Section 15(e) or that would materially change the minimum vesting and performance requirements of an Award as required in the Plan. 
(c)Amendment, Modification, Cancellation and Disgorgement of Awards.  
(i)Except as provided in Section 15(e) and subject to the requirements of this Plan, the Administrator may modify, amend or cancel any Award or waive any restrictions or conditions applicable to any Award or the exercise of the Award, provided that any modification or amendment that materially diminishes the rights of the Participant, or the cancellation of the Award, shall be effective only if agreed to by the Participant or any other person(s) as may then have an interest in the Award, but the Administrator need not obtain Participant (or other interested party) consent for the modification, amendment or cancellation of an Award pursuant to the provisions of subsection (ii) or Section 16 or as follows:  (A) to the extent the Administrator deems such action necessary to comply with any applicable law, the listing requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which the Shares are then traded; (B) to the extent the Administrator deems necessary to preserve favorable accounting or tax treatment of any Award for the Company; or (C) to the extent the Administrator determines that such action does not materially and adversely affect the value of an Award or that such action is in the best interest of the affected Participant or any other person(s) as may then have an interest in the Award.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, any such amendment shall be made in a manner that will enable an Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A to continue to be so exempt, or to enable an Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A to continue to so comply.
(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in an Award Agreement, the Administrator shall have full power and authority to terminate or cause the Participant to forfeit an Award, and require the Participant to disgorge to the Company any gains attributable to the Award, if (A) while the Participant is employed by or in service with the Company or any Affiliate, the Participant competes with the Company or an Affiliate, participates in any enterprise that competes with the Company or an Affiliate or uses or discloses, other than as expressly authorized by the Company, any confidential business information or trade secrets that the Participant obtains during the course of his or her employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate; or (B) after the Participant is no longer employed by or in service with the Company or any Affiliate, the Participant is determined by the Administrator in its reasonable discretion (1) to be in breach of any confidentiality, noncompetition, nonsolicitation or similar agreement between the Participant, on the one hand, and the Company or any Affiliate, on the other hand (the Participant’s “Restrictive Agreement”), or (2) while any Award Agreement is in effect, to have engaged in conduct that would have constituted a breach of the Participant’s Restrictive Agreement if such Restrictive Agreement were then in effect.  
(iii)Any Awards granted pursuant to this Plan, and any Stock issued or cash paid pursuant to an Award, shall be subject to (A) any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock 
13
4846-1436-1435.4

ownership or similar policies adopted by the Company from time to time (to the extent contemplated by such policies) and (B) any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock ownership or similar requirements made applicable by law, regulation or listing standards to the Company from time to time (to the extent contemplated by such requirements).
(iv)Unless the Award Agreement specifies otherwise, the Administrator may cancel any Award at any time if the Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and the Plan.
(d)Survival of Authority and Awards.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authority of the Board and the Administrator under this Section 15 and to otherwise administer the Plan will extend beyond the date of this Plan’s termination. In addition, termination of this Plan will not affect the rights of Participants with respect to Awards previously granted to them, and all unexpired Awards will continue in force and effect after termination of this Plan except as they may lapse or be terminated by their own terms and conditions. 
(e)Repricing and Backdating Prohibited.  Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, and except for the adjustments provided in Section 16, neither the Administrator nor any other person may decrease the exercise or grant price for any outstanding Option or SAR after the date of grant, cancel an outstanding Option or SAR in exchange for cash or other Awards (other than cash or other Awards with a value equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Option or SAR at the time of cancellation over the exercise or grant price for such Shares) or allow a Participant to surrender an outstanding Option or SAR to the Company as consideration for the grant of a new Option or SAR with a lower exercise price.  In addition, the Administrator may not make a grant of an Option or SAR with a grant date that is effective prior to the date the Administrator takes action to approve such Award.
(f)Foreign Participation.  To assure the viability of Awards granted to Participants employed or residing in foreign countries, the Administrator may provide for such special terms as it may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Moreover, the Administrator may approve such supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of, this Plan as it determines is necessary or appropriate for such purposes. Any such amendment, restatement or alternative versions that the Administrator approves for purposes of using this Plan in a foreign country will not affect the terms of this Plan for any other country. In addition, all such supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions must comply with the provisions of Section 15(b)(ii). 
In addition, if an Award is held by a Participant who is employed or residing in a foreign country and the amount payable or Shares issuable under such Award would be taxable to the Participant under Code Section 457A in the year such Award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, then the amount payable or Shares issuable under such Award shall be paid or issued to the Participant as soon as practicable after such substantial risk of forfeiture lapses (or, for Awards that are not considered nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, no later than the end of the short-term deferral period permitted by Code Section 457A) notwithstanding anything in this Plan or the Award Agreement to contrary.
(g)Code Section 409A.  The provisions of Code Section 409A are incorporated herein by reference to the extent necessary for any Award that is subject to Code Section 409A to comply therewith.  
16.Taxes. 
(a)Withholding.  In the event the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is required to withhold any Federal, state or local taxes or other amounts in respect of any income recognized by a Participant as a result of the grant, vesting, payment or settlement of an Award or disposition of any Shares acquired under an Award, the Company may deduct (or require an Affiliate to deduct) from any payments of any kind otherwise due the Participant cash, or with the consent of the Committee, Shares otherwise deliverable or vesting under an Award, to satisfy such tax obligations.  Alternatively, the 
14
4846-1436-1435.4

Company may require such Participant to pay to the Company, in cash, promptly on demand, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment to the Company of the aggregate amount of any such taxes and other amounts.  If Shares are deliverable upon exercise or payment of an Award, the Committee may permit a Participant to satisfy all or a portion of the Federal, state and local withholding tax obligations arising in connection with such Award by electing to (i) have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under the Award, (ii) tender back Shares received in connection with such Award or (iii) deliver other previously owned Shares; provided that the amount to be withheld may not exceed the total maximum statutory tax withholding obligations associated with the transaction to the extent needed for the Company to avoid an accounting charge. If an election is provided, the election must be made on or before the date as of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined and otherwise as the Committee requires.  In any case, the Company may defer making payment or delivery under any Award if any such tax may be pending unless and until indemnified to its satisfaction.  
(b)No Guarantee of Tax Treatment.  Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan, the Company does not guarantee to any Participant or any other Person with an interest in an Award that (i) any Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A shall be so exempt, (ii) any Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A or Code Section 422 shall so comply, (iii) any Award shall otherwise receive a specific tax treatment under any other applicable tax law, nor in any such case will the Company or any Affiliate indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual with respect to the tax consequences of any Award.  
(c)Participant Responsibilities.  If a Participant shall dispose of Stock acquired through exercise of an ISO within either (i) two (2) years after the date the Option is granted or (ii) one (1) year after the date the Option is exercised (i.e., in a disqualifying disposition), such Participant shall notify the Company within seven (7) days of the date of such disqualifying disposition.  In addition, if a Participant elects, under Code Section 83, to be taxed at the time an Award of Restricted Stock (or other property subject to such Code section) is made, rather than at the time the Award vests, such Participant shall notify the Company within seven (7) days of the date the Participant makes such an election.
17.Adjustment Provisions; Change of Control.  
(a)Adjustment of Shares.  If:  (i) the Company shall at any time be involved in a merger or other transaction in which the Shares are changed or exchanged; (ii) the Company shall subdivide or combine the Shares or the Company shall declare a dividend payable in Shares, other securities or other property; (iii) the Company shall effect a cash dividend the amount of which, on a per Share basis, exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share at the time the dividend is declared, or the Company shall effect any other dividend or other distribution on the Shares in the form of cash, or a repurchase of Shares, that the Board determines by resolution is special or extraordinary in nature or that is in connection with a transaction that the Company characterizes publicly as a recapitalization or reorganization involving the Shares; or (iv) any other event shall occur, which, in the case of this clause (iv), in the judgment of the Board or Committee necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then the Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, adjust as applicable: (A) the number and type of Shares subject to this Plan (including the number and type of Shares described in Section 6) and which may after the event be made the subject of Awards; (B) the number and type of Shares subject to outstanding Awards; (C) the grant, purchase, or exercise price with respect to any Award; and (D) the Performance Goals of an Award.   In any such case, the Administrator may also (or in lieu of the foregoing) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award in exchange for the cancellation of all or a portion of the Award (without the consent of the holder of an Award) in an amount determined by the Administrator effective at such time as the Administrator specifies (which may be the time such transaction or event is effective). However, in each case, with respect to Awards of Incentive Stock Options, no such adjustment may be authorized to the extent that such authority would cause this Plan to violate Code Section 422(b).  Further, the number of Shares subject to any Award payable or denominated in Shares must always be a whole number. In any event, previously granted Options or SARs are subject only to such adjustments as are necessary to 
15
4846-1436-1435.4

maintain the relative proportionate interest the Options and SARs represented immediately prior to any such event and to preserve, without exceeding, the value of such Options or SARs.
Without limitation, in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or other similar corporate transaction or event, whether or not constituting a Change of Control (other than any such transaction in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which the outstanding Stock is not being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof), the Administrator may substitute, on an equitable basis as the Administrator determines, for each Share then subject to an Award and the Shares subject to this Plan (if the Plan will continue in effect), the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Stock are or will be entitled in respect of each Share pursuant to the transaction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a stock dividend (other than a stock dividend declared in lieu of an ordinary cash dividend) or subdivision or combination of the Shares (including a reverse stock split), if no action is taken by the Administrator, adjustments contemplated by this subsection that are proportionate shall nevertheless automatically be made as of the date of such stock dividend or subdivision or combination of the Shares.
(b)Issuance or Assumption.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, and without affecting the number of Shares otherwise reserved or available under this Plan, in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization, the Administrator may authorize the issuance or assumption of awards under this Plan upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate. 
(c)Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control:
(i)If the purchaser, successor or surviving entity (or parent thereof) so agrees, some or all outstanding Awards shall be assumed, or replaced with the same type of award with similar terms and conditions, by the purchaser, successor or surviving entity (or parent thereof) in the Change of Control transaction.  If applicable, each Award which is assumed by the purchaser, successor or surviving entity (or parent thereof) shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change of Control, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have been issuable to the Participant upon the consummation of such Change of Control had the Award been exercised, vested or earned immediately prior to such Change of Control, and other appropriate adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Award shall be made.  Upon the Participant’s termination of employment by the successor or surviving entity without Cause, or by the Participant for Good Reason, in either case within twenty-four (24) months following the Change of Control, all of the Participant’s Awards that are in effect as of the date of such termination shall be vested in full or deemed earned in full (assuming the maximum performance goals provided under such Award were met, if applicable) effective on the date of such termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant has in effect an employment, retention, change of control, severance or similar agreement with the Company or any Affiliate that discusses the effect of a Participant’s termination of employment following Change of Control on the Participant’s Awards, then such agreement shall control to the extent it provides better treatment than is provided hereinabove. 
(ii)To the extent the purchaser, successor or surviving entity (or parent thereof) in the Change of Control transaction does not assume the Awards or issue replacement awards as provided in clause (i), then immediately prior to the date of the Change of Control: 
(A)    Each Option or SAR that is then held by a Participant who is employed by or in the service of the Company or an Affiliate shall become immediately and fully vested, and, unless otherwise determined by the Board or Committee, all Options and SARs shall be cancelled on the date of the Change of Control in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the Change of Control price of the Shares covered by the Option or SAR that is so cancelled over the purchase or grant price of such Shares under the Award; 
16
4846-1436-1435.4

(B)    Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Rights (that are not Performance Awards) that are not then vested shall vest; 

(C)    All Performance Awards that are earned but not yet paid shall be paid, and all Performance Awards for which the performance period has not expired shall be cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the amount that would have been due under such Award(s) based on the level of achievement of the Performance Goals (as measured at the time of the Change of Control), but pro-rated based on the length of the performance period that has elapsed as of the date of the Change of Control ; and

(D)    All Dividend Equivalent Units that are not vested shall vest (to the same extent as the Award granted in tandem with the Dividend Equivalent Unit, if applicable) and be paid; and 

(E)    All other Awards that are not vested shall vest (if vesting is based on time only) or shall vest in the same manner as described in clause (C) (if vesting is based on performance) and if an amount is payable under such vested Award, such amount shall be paid in cash based on the value of the Award. 

For purposes of this clause (ii), if the value of an Award is based on the Fair Market Value of a Share, Fair Market Value shall be deemed to mean the per share Change of Control price.  The Administrator shall determine the per share Change of Control price paid or deemed paid in the Change of Control transaction.  
(d)Application of Limits on Payments.  
(i)Determination of Cap or Payment.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in any agreement between a Participant and the Company or an Affiliate, if any payment or benefits paid by the Company pursuant to this Plan, including vesting or similar provisions (“Plan Payments”), would cause some or all of the Plan Payments or any other payments made to or benefits received by a Participant in connection with a Change of Control (such payments or benefits, together with the Plan Payments, the “Total Payments”) to be subject to the tax (“Excise Tax”) imposed by Code Section 4999 but for this Section 17(d), then the Total Payments shall be delivered either (A) in full or (B) in an amount such that the value of the aggregate Total Payments that the Participant is entitled to receive shall be One Dollar ($1.00) less than the maximum amount that the Participant may receive without being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of (A) or (B) results in the receipt by the Participant of the greatest benefit on an after-tax basis (taking into account applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax).
(ii)Procedures.  Upon the reasonable request of either the Participant or the Company, the Company, at the Company’s expense, shall engage nationally recognized tax counsel (“National Tax Counsel”), selected by the Company’s independent auditors (which may be regular outside counsel to the Company), to make the determination (which need not be unqualified) of which alternative under the preceding paragraph results in the receipt by the Participant of the greatest benefit on an after-tax basis.  The determination of National Tax Counsel shall be addressed to the Company and the Participant and shall be binding upon the Company and the Participant.  If such National Tax Counsel so requests, the Company shall obtain, at the Company’s expense, and the National Tax Counsel may rely on, the advice of a firm of recognized executive compensation consultants for any matters relevant to such determination
(iii)Costs of Determinations.  The Company agrees to bear all costs associated with, and to indemnify and hold harmless, the National Tax Counsel of and from any and all claims, damages, and expenses resulting from or relating to its determinations pursuant to this Section 17(d), except for claims, damages or expenses resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such firm.

18.Miscellaneous.  
(a)Other Terms and Conditions.  The grant of any Award may also be subject to other provisions (whether or not applicable to the Award granted to any other Participant) as the Administrator determines appropriate, including, without limitation, provisions for: 
(i) one or more means to enable Participants to defer the delivery of Shares or recognition of taxable income relating to Awards or cash payments derived from the Awards on such terms and conditions as the Administrator determines, including, by way of example, the form and manner of the deferral election, the treatment of dividends paid on the Shares during the deferral period or a means for providing a return to a Participant on amounts deferred, and the permitted distribution dates or events (provided that no such deferral means may result in an increase in the number of Shares issuable under this Plan);
(ii)restrictions on resale or other disposition of Shares; and 
(iii)compliance with federal or state securities laws and stock exchange requirements. 
(b)Employment and Service.  The issuance of an Award shall not confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continued employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate, or the right to continue as a Director.  Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, for purposes of the Plan and all Awards, the following rules shall apply:
(i)a Participant who transfers employment between the Company and its Affiliates, or between Affiliates, will not be considered to have terminated employment;
(ii)a Participant who ceases to be a Non-Employee Director because he or she becomes an employee of the Company or an Affiliate shall not be considered to have ceased service as a Non-Employee Director with respect to any Award until such Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates;  
(iii)a Participant who ceases to be employed by the Company or an Affiliate and immediately thereafter becomes a Non-Employee Director, a non-employee director of an Affiliate, or a consultant to the Company or any Affiliate shall not be considered to have terminated employment until such Participant’s service as a director of, or consultant to, the Company and its Affiliates has ceased; and
(iv)a Participant employed by an Affiliate will be considered to have terminated employment when such entity ceases to be an Affiliate. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of an Award that is subject to Code Section 409A, if a Participant’s termination of employment or service triggers the payment of compensation under such Award, then the Participant will be deemed to have terminated employment or service upon his or her “separation from service” within the meaning of  Code Section 409A.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan or an Award to the contrary, if any Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A as of the date of his or her “separation from service” within the meaning of  Code Section 409A, then, to the extent required by Code Section 409A, any payment made to the Participant on account of such separation from service shall not be made before a date that is six months after the date of the separation from service.
(c)No Fractional Shares.  No fractional Shares or other securities may be issued or delivered pursuant to this Plan, and the Administrator may determine whether cash, other securities or other property will be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or other securities, or whether such fractional Shares or other securities or any rights to fractional Shares or other securities will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. 
18
4846-1436-1435.4

(d)Unfunded Plan.  This Plan is unfunded and does not create, and should not be construed to create, a trust or separate fund with respect to this Plan’s benefits. This Plan does not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person. To the extent any person holds any rights by virtue of an Award granted under this Plan, such rights are no greater than the rights of the Company’s general unsecured creditors. Income recognized by a Participant pursuant to an Award shall not be included in the determination of benefits under any employee pension benefit plan (as such term is defined in Section 3(2) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) or group insurance or other benefit plans applicable to the Participant which are maintained by the Company or any Affiliate, except as may be provided under the terms of such plans or determined by resolution of the Board.
(e)Requirements of Law and Securities Exchange.  The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares in connection with an Award are subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement, the Company has no liability to deliver any Shares under this Plan or make any payment unless such delivery or payment would comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity, and unless and until the Participant has taken all actions required by the Company in connection therewith.  The Company may impose such restrictions on any Shares issued under the Plan as the Company determines necessary or desirable to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations or the requirements of any national securities exchange.
(f)Restrictive Legends; Representations. All Shares delivered (whether in certificated or book entry form) pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall bear such legends or be subject to such stop transfer orders as the Administrator may deem advisable under the Plan or under applicable laws, rules or regulations or the requirements of any national securities exchange.  The Administrator may require each Participant or other Person who acquires Shares under the Plan by means of an Award to represent to the Company in writing that such Participant or other Person is acquiring the Shares without a view to the distribution thereof.
(g)Governing Law.  This Plan, and all agreements under this Plan, will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without reference to any conflict of law principles.  Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, may only be heard in a “bench” trial, and any party to such action or proceeding shall agree to waive its right to a jury trial.
(h)Limitations on Actions.  Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, must be brought within one year (365 days) after the day the complaining party first knew or should have known of the events giving rise to the complaint.  
(i)Construction.  Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and wherever any words are used in the singular or plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply.  Titles of sections are for general information only, and this Plan is not to be construed with reference to such titles.
(j)Severability.  If any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement or any Award (i) is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or (ii) would disqualify this Plan, any Award Agreement or any Award under any law the Administrator deems applicable, then such provision should be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Administrator, materially altering the intent of this Plan, Award Agreement or Award, then such provision should be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of this Plan, such Award Agreement and such Award will remain in full force and effect.

Appendix A 
Regal Rexnord Corporation 2018 Equity Incentive Plan
1.Assumed Equity Awards.  In connection with the Spin-Off  (as defined in the Separation and Distribution Agreement dated as of February 15, 2021, by and among Rexnord Corporation (“Rexnord”), Land Newco, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Rexnord (“Spinco”), and Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Corporation”)) and the subsequent merger (the “Merger”) of Spinco with a subsidiary of the Corporation, as contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of February 15, 2021 among the Corporation, Phoenix 2021, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation, Rexnord and Spinco, equity-based awards held by certain employees of Rexnord and its subsidiaries that, prior to the Spinoff and Merger, related to securities of Rexnord, were substituted with awards that relate to common shares of the Corporation. Such awards (the “Replacement Awards”) are subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Plan except as modified by this Appendix A.  Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this Appendix A shall have the same meanings as in the Plan. 

2.Change of Control.  Upon a Change of Control, the following provisions shall apply to the Replacement Awards in lieu of the provisions in Sections 17(c) and (d) of the Plan:

(a)If the Administrator has made a provision for the substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation or settlement of the Replacement Award or (unless the Administrator has provided for the termination of the award) the award would otherwise continue in accordance with its terms, then, unless the Replacement Award agreement provides otherwise and a Participant experiences an “involuntary termination” of employment from the Company and its Subsidiaries (or any successor employer thereto) during the period commencing 90 days prior to and ending on the second anniversary of the date of the Change of Control (the “Protection Period”), then, effective upon the later of the closing of the Change of Control or the Participant’s involuntary termination:

(i)each then-outstanding Option or SAR shall become fully vested, 
(ii)all Restricted Stock Units then outstanding shall become fully vested and be settled in accordance with the terms of the Replacement Award agreement; and 
(iii)each other Replacement Award that is then outstanding shall become payable to the holder of such award.

(b)For purposes of Section 2(a), a Participant shall have an “involuntary termination” of employment if his or her employment is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause or by the participant for Good Reason. Termination of employment due to death or Disability shall not be considered an involuntary termination.

(c)“Cause” means any of the following:

(i)A Participant’s willful and continued failure to perform substantially his or her duties owed to the Company or an Affiliate after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant specifically identifying the nature of such unacceptable performance and is not cured by the Participant within a reasonable period, not to exceed 30 days;
(ii)A Participant is convicted of (or pleads guilty or no contest to) a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude;
(iii)A Participant has engaged in conduct that constitutes gross misconduct in the performance of his or her employment duties; or
(iv)A Participant breaches any representation, warranty or covenant under an award agreement or an employment agreement or other agreement or arrangement with the Company or an Affiliate.
20
4846-1436-1435.4

An act or omission by a participant shall not be “willful” if conducted in good faith and with the participant’s reasonable belief that such conduct is in the best interests of the Company or an Affiliate.
(d)“Good Reason” means, without the express written consent of a participant, the occurrence of any of the following events during a Protection Period:

(i)The Participant’s base salary or target annual bonus opportunity is materially reduced;
(ii)The Participant’s duties or responsibilities are negatively and materially changed in a manner inconsistent with the Participant’s position (including status, offices, titles, and reporting responsibilities) or authority; or
(iii)The Company or an Affiliate requires a Participant’s principal office to be relocated more than 50 miles from its location as of the date immediately preceding the Change of Control.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not exist unless the Participant provides the Board not less than 30 but not more than 90 days’ written notice, with specificity, of the grounds constituting Good Reason and an opportunity for a period of at least 30 days during such notice period for the Company to cure such grounds, and the Company fails to cure such grounds within the prescribed time period. Such notice shall be given within 90 days following the initial existence of such grounds constituting Good Reason for such notice and subsequent termination, if not so cured above, to be effective.

(e)The Administrator may delay the payment or settlement of any award to the extent required to comply with Code Section 409A, and may accord the holder of any Replacement Award a right to refuse any acceleration, whether pursuant to the award agreement or otherwise, in such circumstances as the Administrator may approve. 

(f)Notwithstanding anything else contained in the Plan or this Appendix A to the contrary, in no event shall any Replacement Award be accelerated to an extent or in a manner so that such Replacement Award, together with any other compensation and benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, the Participant under any other plan or agreement of the Company or any of its Affiliates, would not be fully deductible by the Company or an Affiliate for federal income tax purposes because of Section 280G of the Code. If a Participant would be entitled to benefits or payments hereunder and under any other plan or program that would constitute “parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Code, then, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the Participant may, by written notice to the Company, designate the order in which such parachute payments will be reduced or modified so that neither the Company nor any Affiliate is not denied federal income tax deductions for any “parachute payments” because of Section 280G of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant is a party to an employment or other agreement with the Company or an Affiliate, or is a Participant in a severance program sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate, that contains express provisions regarding Section 280G and/or Section 4999 of the Code (or any similar successor provision), then the Section 280G and/or Section 4999 provisions of such employment or other agreement or plan, as applicable, shall control as to the Replacement Awards.
