     (i) elect to defer an integral percentage of from 1% to 60% of his Base
Compensation for the Plan Year; and/or

     (ii) elect to defer an integral percentage of from 1% to 100% of his Bonus
earned during the Plan Year.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to an Eligible Employee who first becomes a
Participant on a date other than an Entry Date, any such Participant Deferrals pursuant to
Section 3.01(a)(i) shall apply only for the portion of such Plan Year commencing with the
date he first becomes a Participant and ending on the last day of such Plan Year. An
Eligible Employee who first becomes a Participant during a Plan Year may not elect to defer
any portion of his Bonus earned during such Plan Year.

     (b) If a Participant meets the eligibility requirements of Section 2.01(b), the
Participant may elect for a Plan Year to defer the applicable percentage of his Base
Compensation for the remaining portion of the Plan Year following the date his pre-tax
elective deferrals under the Thrift Plan are reduced under section 402(g) or section
401(a)(17) of the Code and that is not deferred on a pre-tax basis under the Thrift Plan or
under Section 3.01(a)(i) of the Plan. For purposes of this Section 3.01(b), the term
“applicable percentage” means the percentage of compensation that the Participant specifies
that he will defer on a pre-tax basis under the Thrift Plan in his election in effect on
December 31 immediately prior to such Plan Year (or on the first day the Participant becomes
a participant in the Thrift Plan during such Plan Year, if later). Except as specified
below, a Participant’s deferrals under Section 3.01(b) shall commence effective for the
period that begins when the Participant’s pre-tax elective deferrals under the Thrift Plan
are reduced as a result of the limitations contained in section 402(g) or section 401(a)(17)
of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant reduces his pre-tax elective
deferrals under the Thrift Plan during a Plan Year, any attendant decrease in his
Participant Deferrals under Section 3.01(b) will not be recognized under the Plan to the
extent that the decrease exceeds the amount of the limitation applicable to the Participant
for the Plan Year under section 402(g) of the Code. If a Participant increases

9

 

his pre-tax elective deferrals under the Thrift Plan during a Plan Year, the
Participant’s deferrals pursuant to this Section 3.01(b) shall commence and be computed in
the same manner as if no change had been made in the Participant’s pre-tax deferrals under
the Thrift Plan.

     3.02 Participant Deferral Elections. Pay for a Plan Year that is not deferred pursuant to an
election under Sections 3.01(a) and (b) shall be received by such Participant in cash. A
Participant’s election to defer an amount of his Pay pursuant to this Section shall be made by
effecting, in the form prescribed by the Plan Administrator, a Participant Deferral election
pursuant to which the Participant authorizes the Company to reduce his Pay in the elected amount
and the Company, in consideration thereof, agrees to credit an equal amount to his Participant
Deferral Account maintained under the Plan. The reduction in a Participant’s Pay pursuant to his
Participant Deferral election shall be effected by Pay reductions each payroll period as determined
by the Plan Administrator following the effective date of such election. Participant Deferrals
made by a Participant shall be credited to his Participant Deferral Account as of a date determined
in accordance with procedures established from time to time by the Plan Administrator; provided,
however, that such Participant Deferrals shall be credited to his Participant Deferral Account no
later than 30 days after the date upon which the Pay deferred would have been received by such
Participant in cash had he not elected to defer such amount pursuant to Section 3.01.

     3.03 Period of Effectiveness of Participant Deferral Elections. A Participant Deferral
election pursuant to Sections 3.01(a) and (b) shall become effective as of the Entry Date (or later
initial eligibility date, if applicable) which is on or after the date the election is effected by
the Participant. With respect to an Eligible Employee who first becomes a Participant on other than
an Entry Date, any such Participant Deferrals pursuant to Sections 3.01(a)(i) or 3.01(b) shall
apply only to Base Compensation earned during such Plan Year commencing after his deferral election
for such Plan Year. A Participant Deferral election pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(ii) shall become
effective as of the first day of the Plan Year following the date the election is effected by the
Participant. A Participant Deferral election shall remain in force and effect for the entire (or
partial, if applicable) Plan Year to which such election relates. A Participant Deferral election
shall be made for each Plan Year, or partial Plan Year, in which the Participant is eligible to
participate. Plan provisions to the contrary notwithstanding, a Participant Deferral election shall
be suspended during any period of unpaid leave of absence from the Company.

     3.04 Changes to Participant Deferral Election. A Participant who makes a Participant Deferral
election may change his election for future Participant Deferrals, as of the Entry Date of any
subsequent Plan Year, by effecting such change in the annual election prior to the Entry Date of
such Plan Year, in the form and within the time period prescribed by the Plan Administrator. Any
such change shall be effective as of the Entry Date of such Plan Year.

     3.05 Cancellation of Participant Deferral Election. A Participant who has made a Participant
Deferral election may cancel his election for future Participant Deferrals, as of the Entry Date of
any subsequent Plan Year, by effecting such cancellation in the annual election prior to the Entry
Date of such Plan Year, in the form and within the time period prescribed by the Plan
Administrator. Any such change shall be effective as of the Entry Date of such Plan Year. A
Participant who so cancels his Participant Deferral election may again make a new

10

 

Participant Deferral election for a subsequent Plan Year, if he satisfies the eligibility
requirements set forth in Article II, by effecting a new Participant Deferral election prior to the
Entry Date of such Plan Year, in the form and within the time period prescribed by the Plan
Administrator.

     3.06 Time and Form of Payment Specified in Participant Deferral Election. A Participant
Deferral election shall indicate the applicable time and form of payment, as provided in Sections
9.02, 9.03, 9.04 and 9.05 for the Pay deferred under the election for such Plan Year and the net
income (or net loss) allocated with respect thereto. Such time and form of payment election for
such Plan Year shall also apply to any Company Deferrals for such Plan Year and the earnings and
losses allocated with respect thereto. Each Participant’s Accounts shall be divided into
subaccounts to reflect the Participant’s various elections respecting time and form of payment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the portion of a Participant’s Account attributable
to the amount, if any, credited to his Account on December 31, 1994, under the Plan as in effect
immediately prior to the January 1, 1995 restatement of the Plan, such portion and the net income
(or net loss) allocated with respect thereto shall be allocated to a subaccount which shall be
payable at the time and in the form provided under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to such
restatement. In accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, a Participant
may elect to have his Account or subaccount balance paid or commence to be paid (i) upon the
expiration of a specified term following the Participant’s Separation from Service, (ii) as soon as
administratively practicable after December 31 of the Plan Year in which the Participant’s
Separation From Service occurs, (iii) on a date specified by the Participant that is at least 18
months following the end of the Plan Year for which the deferral election is made, or (iv) upon the
earlier to occur of the date specified in clause (iii) or the date specified in clause (ii) (the
“Deferral Period”). The Plan Administrator is authorized to establish written guidelines
concerning limitations on the number of subaccounts respecting time and form of payment that may be
maintained under the Plan for any given Participant. Any such written guidelines shall be deemed
to be incorporated by reference in the Plan. Once an election as to time and form of payment has
been made for a Plan Year, the election may not be changed by the Participant or former Participant
except as specified in Sections 3.07 and 3.08.

     3.07 Irrevocable Change of Election of Time and/or Form of Payment for Grandfathered Amounts.
In accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, a Participant or former
Participant may make a one-time irrevocable election to change the time and/or form of payment he
previously selected for all of the Grandfathered Amounts credited to his Account. Any such change
election must be made no later than 18 months before the date on which such amounts were scheduled
to be paid or commence to be paid under the Participant’s or former Participant’s original
election. In addition, any such change election may not provide for a payment or commencement of
payment that is earlier than 18 months after the date on which the change election is made. For
purposes of calculating the 18-month period, such period will commence on the first day of the
month immediately following the month in which the election is made.

     3.08 Change of Time and Form of Payment for Amounts Other Than Grandfathered Amounts. In
accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, a Participant or former
Participant may make an election to change the time and/or form of payment he previously selected
for the amounts credited to his Account other

11

 

than Grandfathered Amounts. Any such change election must be made no later than 12 months
before the date on which such amounts were scheduled to be paid or commence to be paid under the
Participant’s or former Participant’s original election. In addition, any such change election may
not provide for a payment or commencement of payment that is earlier than five years after the date
on which the amounts were originally scheduled to be paid or commence to be paid. For purposes of
this Section 3.08, installment payments shall be treated as a single payment.

     3.09 Suspension of Participant Deferrals Due to Withdrawal for Unforeseeable Financial
Emergency. Upon written petition of a Participant, in the event that the Plan Administrator
determines in its sole discretion that such Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Financial
Emergency or that such Participant will, absent termination of such Participant’s Participant
Deferral election then in effect, suffer an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, then the Participant
Deferral election of such Participant then in effect, if any, shall be terminated as soon as
administratively practicable after such determination. A Participant whose Participant Deferral
election has been so terminated may again make a new Participant Deferral election for a subsequent
Plan Year that commences at least twelve months after the effective date of such termination, if he
satisfies the eligibility requirements set forth in Article II and by effecting a new Participant
Deferral election for such Plan Year, in the form and within the time period prescribed by the Plan
Administrator.

ARTICLE IV

COMPANY DEFERRALS

     4.01 Company Matching Deferrals. If the Participant makes the maximum pre-tax elective
deferral under the Thrift Plan permitted under section 402(g) of the Code (or other applicable
legal limitation) and the Participant elects to defer pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or Section
3.01(b), the Company shall make a Company Matching Deferral on his behalf in an amount equal to (A)
minus (B) where (A) is five percent of the Participant’s Base Compensation and Bonus scheduled to
be paid for the Plan Year (whether or not deferred under the Plan or the Thrift Plan) and (B) is
the amount of matching contributions made for the Participant for the Plan Year under the Thrift
Plan. If the Participant does not make the maximum pre-tax elective deferral under the Thrift Plan
permitted under section 402(g) of the Code (or other applicable legal limitation) and the
Participant elects to defer pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b), the Company shall make
a Company Matching Deferral on his behalf in an amount equal to (A) minus (B) where (A) is five
percent of the Participant’s Base Compensation and Bonus for the Plan Year (whether or not deferred
under the Plan or the Thrift Plan) and (B) is the maximum amount of matching contributions that
would have been made for the Participant for the Plan Year had he contributed the maximum pre-tax
deferral under the Thrift Plan permitted under section 402(g) of the Code (or other applicable
legal limitation). Company Matching Deferrals made on a Participant’s behalf pursuant to this
Section 4.01 shall be credited to such Participant’s Company Matching Deferral Account in one or
more installments, as determined by the Plan Administrator, as of a date or dates within the Plan
Year.

     4.02 Company Base Thrift Deferrals. For each payroll period, the Company shall defer an
amount on behalf of each Participant who is entitled to an allocation of “Company Base
Contributions” under the Thrift Plan for such payroll period. The amount of each such Company

12

 

Deferral shall be a percentage of the Participant’s Ineligible Thrift Plan Compensation, if
any, for such payroll period, with such percentage being equal to the percentage utilized under the
Thrift Plan to determine the Participant’s “Company Base Contribution” for such payroll period
under the Thrift Plan. Company Base Thrift Deferrals on behalf of a Participant pursuant to this
Section 4.02 shall be credited to such Participant’s Company Base Thrift Deferral Account in
accordance with the procedures established from time to time by the Plan Administrator.

     4.03 Company Pension Deferrals. For each payroll period, the Company shall defer an amount
on behalf of each Participant equal to the percentage of such Participant’s Ineligible Pension Plan
Compensation, if any, for such payroll period. Company Pension Deferrals on behalf of a
Participant pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall be credited to such Participant’s Company Pension
Deferral Account in accordance with the procedures established from time to time by the Plan
Administrator.

     4.04 Company Discretionary Deferrals. As of any date selected by the Company, the Company may
credit a Participant’s Company Discretionary Deferral Account with Company Discretionary Deferrals
in such amount, if any, as the Company shall determine in its sole discretion. Such credits may be
made on behalf of some Participants but not others, and such credits may vary in amount among
individual Participants.

     4.05 Time and Form of Payment Elections for Company Deferrals. A Participant who does not
have a time and form of payment election in effect pursuant to Section 3.06 for a given Plan Year
shall make a time and form of payment election, as provided in Sections 9.03 and 9.05 (Sections
9.02 and 9.04 with respect to Grandfathered Amounts), for Company Base Thrift Deferrals, Company
Pension Deferrals, and Company Discretionary Deferrals for such Plan Year. Such election shall be
made in accordance with the same procedures as apply to Participant Deferral elections under
Section 3.06. A Participant who had made a time and form of payment election pursuant to this
Section 4.05 may change his election for future Company Base Thrift Deferrals, Company Pension
Deferrals, and Company Discretionary Deferrals as of the Entry Date of any subsequent Plan Year, by
effecting a new election prior to the Entry Date of such Plan Year, in the form and within the time
period prescribed by the Plan Administrator. Each Participant’s Accounts shall be divided into
subaccounts to reflect the Participant’s various elections respecting time and form of payment.
Once an election as to time and form of payment has been made for a Plan Year, the election may not
be changed by the Participant or former Participant except as specified in Section 3.07, or Section
3.08, as applicable.

ARTICLE V

VALUATION OF ACCOUNTS

     All amounts allocated to the Accounts of a Participant shall be deemed to be invested as of
the date of such allocation, and the balance of each Account shall reflect the result of daily
pricing of the assets in which such Account is deemed to be invested from the time of such
allocation until the time of distribution.

13

 

ARTICLE VI

DEEMED INVESTMENT OF FUNDS

     Participants’ and former Participants’ Accounts shall be deemed to be credited with earnings
and losses. For the purpose of determining the earnings or losses to be credited to the
Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts under the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall assume
that the Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts are invested in units or shares of the
Funds in the proportions selected by the Participant or former Participant in accordance with
procedures established by the Plan Administrator. This amount accrued by the Plan Administrator as
additional deferred compensation shall be a part of the Company’s obligation to the Participant or
former Participant. The determination of deemed earnings and losses on amounts deemed credited to
the Participant’s or former Participant’s Account shall in no way affect the ability of the general
creditors of the Company to reach the assets of the Company (including any rabbi trust maintained
in connection with the Plan) in the event of the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or place
the Participants or former Participants in a secured position ahead of the general creditors of the
Company. Although a Participant’s or former Participant’s investment selections made in accordance
with the terms of the Plan and such procedures as may be established by the Plan Administrator
shall be relevant for purposes of determining the Company’s obligation to the Participant or former
Participant under the Plan, there is no requirement that any assets of the Company (including those
held in any rabbi trust) shall be invested in accordance with the Participant’s or former
Participant’s investment selections.

     Each Participant or former Participant shall designate, in accordance with the procedures
established from time to time by the Plan Administrator, the manner in which the amounts allocated
to his Accounts shall be deemed to be invested from among the Funds made available from time to
time for such purpose by the Plan Administrator. Such Participant or former Participant may
designate one of such Funds for the deemed investment of all such amounts allocated to his Accounts
or he may split the deemed investment of such amounts allocated to his Accounts among such Funds in
such increments as the Plan Administrator may prescribe. If a Participant or former Participant
fails to make a proper designation, then his Accounts shall be deemed to be invested in the Fund or
Funds designated in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner by the Plan Administrator from time to
time.

     A Participant may change his deemed investment designation for future deferrals to be
allocated to his Accounts. Any such change shall be made in accordance with the procedures
established by the Plan Administrator, and the frequency of such changes may be limited by the Plan
Administrator.

     A Participant or former Participant may elect to convert his deemed investment designation
with respect to the amounts already allocated to his Accounts. Any such conversion shall be made in
accordance with the procedures established by the Plan Administrator, and the frequency of such
conversions may be limited by the Plan Administrator.

14

 

ARTICLE VII

DETERMINATION OF VESTED INTEREST AND FORFEITURES

     7.01 Vested Interest. A Participant or former Participant shall have a 100% Vested Interest
in amounts credited to his Participant Deferral Account and his Company Matching Deferral Account
at all times. A Participant or former Participant shall have a Vested Interest in the amounts
credited to his Company Base Thrift Deferral Account and Company Discretionary Deferral Account
equal to his nonforfeitable interest in his “Company Non-Matching Accounts” under the Thrift Plan.
A Participant or former Participant shall have a Vested Interest in the amounts credited to his
Company Pension Deferral Account equal to his nonforfeitable interest in his account under the
Pension Plan. Further, a Participant or former Participant shall have a 100% Vested Interest in
amounts credited to his Company Base Thrift Deferral Account, Company Pension Deferral Account, and
Company Discretionary Deferral Account upon such Participant’s or former Participant’s Termination
of Employment after attainment of his Retirement Date or by reason of death. Effective July 24,
2008, if a Change in Control occurs, a Participant who has not incurred a Separation From Service
prior to the date of the Change in Control shall have a 100% Vested Interest in amounts credited to
his Company Base Thrift Deferral Account, Company Pension Deferral Account, Company Discretionary
Deferral Account and Company Pension Deferral Account upon the occurrence of the Change in Control.

     7.02 Forfeitures. A Participant or former Participant who incurs a Termination of Employment
with a Vested Interest in amounts credited to his Company Base Thrift Deferral Account, Company
Pension Deferral Account, and Company Discretionary Deferral Account that is less than 100%
(determined after giving effect to any provision in Section 7.01 that may provide for an increase
in such Participant’s Vested Interest upon a Termination of Employment) shall forfeit to the
Company the nonvested portion of amounts credited to his Company Base Thrift Deferral Account,
Company Pension Deferral Account, and Company Discretionary Deferral Account as of the date of such
Termination of Employment.

ARTICLE VIII

ACCELERATED DISTRIBUTIONS

     8.01 Restrictions on In-Service Distributions and Loans. Except as provided in Section 8.02,
or as elected by a Participant pursuant to Section 3.06 or Section 4.05 (as such election may be
changed pursuant to Section 3.07 or Section 3.08) Participants shall not be permitted to make
withdrawals from, or to receive distributions under, the Plan while they are employed by the
Company or an Affiliate. Participants shall not, at any time, be permitted to borrow from the
Trust Fund. Except as provided in Sections 8.02 and 14.04, all benefits under the Plan shall be
paid in accordance with the provisions of Article IX.

     8.02 Emergency Benefit. In the event that the Plan Administrator, upon written petition of a
Participant who has not incurred a Termination of Employment, determines in its sole discretion
that such Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, such Participant shall be
entitled to a distribution in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (a) the amount determined by
the Plan Administrator as necessary to meet such Participant’s needs
created by the Unforeseeable Financial Emergency or (b) the then value of such Participant’s

15

 

Vested Interest in his Accounts. Such benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum payment as soon
as administratively practicable after the Plan Administrator has made its determinations with
respect to the availability and amount of such benefit. If a Participant’s Accounts are deemed to
be invested in more than one Fund, such benefit shall be distributed pro rata from each Fund in
which such Accounts are deemed to be invested. If a Participant’s Accounts contain more than one
distribution subaccount, such benefit shall be considered to have been distributed, first, from the
subaccount with respect to which the earliest distribution would be made, then, from the subaccount
with respect to which the next earliest distribution would be made, and continuing in such manner
until the amount of such distribution has been satisfied.

ARTICLE IX

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

     9.01 Amount of Benefit. Upon the expiration of the Deferral Period, the Participant (or, in
the event of the death of the Participant while employed by the Company or an Affiliate, the
Participant’s designated beneficiary) or former Participant shall be entitled to a benefit equal in
value to the Participant’s or former Participant’s Vested Interest in the balance in his Accounts
as of the date the payment of such benefit is to commence pursuant to Section 9.02 and/or Section
9.03 (adjusted for subsequent deemed investment gains or losses in the case of benefits paid in the
form of installments).

     9.02 Time of Payment of Grandfathered Amounts. Payment of a Participant’s or former
Participant’s benefit under Section 9.01 shall be made or shall commence, with respect to such
Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts, or with respect to such Participant’s or former
Participant’s subaccounts established pursuant to Section 3.06 and/or Section 4.05 separately and
respectively, as follows. To the extent that the Participant or former Participant elected to have
his Accounts or subaccounts paid upon his Termination of Employment, the Participant’s or former
Participant’s benefit shall be paid or commence to be paid as soon as administratively practicable
after the last day of the calendar year coincident with or next following the date the Participant
or former Participant incurs a Termination of Employment. To the extent that the Participant or
former Participant elected to have his Accounts or subaccounts paid after a specified term, the
Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit shall be paid or commence to be paid as soon as
administratively practicable after the expiration of such specified term. With respect to any
portion of a Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit for which no time of payment election is
in effect, payment of such amount shall be made or commence as soon as administratively practicable
after the last day of the calendar year coincident with or next following the date the Participant
or former Participant incurs a Termination of Employment. A Participant’s or former Participant’s
benefit shall not, however, be paid or commence prior to the date that all Participant Deferrals
and Company Deferrals made pursuant to the Plan have been allocated to such Participant’s or former
Participant’s Accounts.

     9.03 Time of Payment of Amounts Other Than Grandfathered Amounts. Payment of a Participant’s
or former Participant’s benefit under Section 9.01 shall be made or shall commence, with respect to
such Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts, or with respect to such Participant’s or
former Participant’s subaccounts established pursuant to Section 3.06
and/or Section 4.05 separately and respectively, as follows. To the extent that the
Participant or

16

 

former Participant elected to have his Accounts or subaccounts paid upon his
Separation From Service, the Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit shall be paid or
commence to be paid on the later of (1) the first day of the month coincident with or next
following the date that is six months after the date of the Separation From Service or (2) the
first day of the Plan Year next following the date of the Participant’s or former Participant’s
Separation From Service. To the extent that the Participant or former Participant elected to have
his Accounts or subaccounts paid after a specified term, the Participant’s or former Participant’s
benefit shall be paid or commence to be paid upon the expiration of such specified term. With
respect to any portion of a Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit for which an election was
not made in accordance with Section 3.06 or Section 4.05, payment of such amount shall be made or
commence on the later of (1) the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date
that is six months after the date of the Participant’s or former Participant’s Separation From
Service or (2) the first day of the Plan Year next following the date of the Participant’s or
former Participant’s Separation From Service.

     9.04 Alternative Forms of Benefit Payments for Grandfathered Amounts. A Participant’s or
former Participant’s benefit under Section 9.01 shall be paid, with respect to such Participant’s
or former Participant’s Grandfathered Amounts, or with respect to such Participant’s or former
Participant’s subaccounts established pursuant to Section 3.06 and/or Section 4.05 that are
attributable to his Grandfathered Amounts separately and respectively, in one of the following
forms irrevocably elected by such Participant or former Participant pursuant to Section 3.06 and/or
Section 4.05:

     (a) A single lump sum payment; or

     (b) Any number (from two to 20 as designated by such Participant or former Participant)
of annual installment payments and, in the event of such Participant’s or former
Participant’s death prior to the receipt of all of the elected installment payments, the
remaining installments shall be paid to such Participant’s or former Participant’s
designated beneficiary as provided in Section 9.08. The amount of each annual installment
shall be computed by dividing the Vested Interest in the unpaid balance in the Participant’s
or former Participant’s Accounts as of the date of payment of such annual installment by the
number of annual installments remaining.

     With respect to any portion of a Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit
attributable to his Pre-2009 Accounts for which an election was not made in accordance with
Section 3.06 or Section 4.05, such amount shall be paid in the form of 15 annual installment
payments to such Participant or former Participant or, in the event of such Participant’s or
former Participant’s death prior to his receipt of all such installments, to his designated
beneficiary as provided in Section 9.08; provided, however, that with respect to
Grandfathered Amounts, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, elect to make
such benefit payment in any other available form. If a Participant or former Participant
dies prior to the date the payment of his benefit begins and if no form of payment election
is in effect for any portion of such Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit, such
amount shall be paid to the Participant’s or former Participant’s designated beneficiary in
the form described in the preceding sentence. If a Participant or former
Participant dies prior to the date the payment of his benefit begins with a form of

17

 

payment election in effect, then benefit payments shall be made to the Participant’s or
former Participant’s designated beneficiary in the form elected by the Participant or former
Participant.

     9.05 Alternative Forms of Benefit Payments for Amounts Other Than Grandfathered Amounts.

     A Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit under Section 9.01 shall be paid, with
respect to such Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts other than his Grandfathered
Amounts, or with respect to such Participant’s or former Participant’s subaccounts
established pursuant to Section 3.06 and/or Section 4.05 that are not attributable to his
Grandfathered Amounts separately and respectively, in one of the following forms irrevocably
elected by such Participant or former Participant pursuant to Section 3.06 and/or Section
4.05:

     (a) A single lump sum payment; or

     (b) Any number (from two to 20 as designated by such Participant or former Participant)
of annual installment payments and, in the event of such Participant’s or former
Participant’s death prior to the receipt of all of the elected installment payments, the
remaining installments shall be paid to such Participant’s or former Participant’s
designated beneficiary as provided in Section 9.08. The amount of each annual installment
shall be computed by dividing the Vested Interest in the unpaid balance in the Participant’s
or former Participant’s Accounts as of the date of payment of such annual installment by the
number of annual installments remaining.

     With respect to any portion of a Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit for
which an election was not made in accordance with Section 3.06 or Section 4.05, other than
amounts attributable to his Pre-2009 Accounts, such amount shall be paid in the form of
single sum payment to such Participant or former Participant. If no form of payment
election is in effect for any portion of such Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit,
and the Participant or former Participant dies prior to the date such amount is paid, such
amount shall be paid to the Participant’s or former Participant’s designated beneficiary in
the form described in the preceding sentence. If a Participant or former Participant dies
prior to the date the payment of his benefit begins with a form of payment election in
effect, then benefit payments shall be made to the Participant’s or former Participant’s
designated beneficiary in the form elected by the Participant or former Participant.

     9.06 Accelerated Pay-Out of Certain Grandfathered Amounts. Notwithstanding any provision of
the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant’s or former Participant’s benefit payments respecting
Grandfathered Amounts credited to any one subaccount established pursuant to Section 3.06 or
Section 4.05 are to be paid in a form other than a single lump sum payment and the aggregate
Grandfathered Amounts credited to such subaccount at the time of commencement of such payments is
less than $50,000, then the Plan Administrator may, in its
sole discretion, elect to cause such Grandfathered Amounts credited to such subaccount to be
paid in a single lump sum payment.

18

 

     9.07 Accelerated Pay-Out of Certain Amounts Including Grandfathered Amounts. Effective
January 1, 2009, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if the aggregate
amount of the Participant’s or former Participant’s Account balances under the Plan (including
Grandfathered Amounts) does not exceed the Cashout Amount (as defined below), the amounts credited
to the Participant’s or former Participant’s Account shall be distributed to him immediately in the
form of a single lump sum payment; provided, however, that no such payment shall be made to a
Participant or former Participant prior to the later of (1) the first day of the month coincident
with or next following the date that is six months after the date of the Participant’s or former
Participant’s Separation From Service and (2) the first day of the Plan Year next following the
date of the Participant’s or former Participant’s Separation From Service; and provided further
that the payment results in the termination and liquidation of the entirety of the Participant’s or
former Participant’s interest under the Plan and all arrangements that are treated as having been
deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Department of Treasury
Regulation section 1.409A-1(c)(2). For purposes of this Section 9.07, the term “Cashout Amount”
means the applicable dollar amount under section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code in effect during the Plan
Year.

     9.08 Designation of Beneficiaries.

     (a) Each Participant or former Participant shall have the right to designate the
beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive payment of his benefit in the event of his death.
Each such designation shall be made by executing the beneficiary designation form prescribed
by the Plan Administrator and filing same with the Plan Administrator. Any such designation
may be changed at any time by execution of a new designation in accordance with this
Section.

     (b) If no such designation is on file with the Plan Administrator at the time of the
death of the Participant or former Participant or such designation is not effective for any
reason as determined by the Plan Administrator, then the designated beneficiary or
beneficiaries to receive such benefit shall be as follows:

     (i) If a Participant or former Participant leaves a surviving spouse, his
benefit shall be paid to such surviving spouse;

     (ii) If a Participant or former Participant leaves no surviving spouse, his
benefit shall be paid to such Participant’s or former Participant’s executor or
administrator, or to his heirs at law if there is no administration of such
Participant’s or former Participant’s estate.

     9.09 Payment of Benefits. To the extent the Trust Fund has sufficient assets, the Trustee
shall pay benefits to Participants or former Participants or their respective beneficiaries, except
to the extent the Company pays the benefits directly and provides adequate evidence of such payment
to the Trustee. To the extent the Trustee does not or cannot pay benefits out of the Trust Fund,
the benefits shall be paid by the Company. Any benefit payments made to a
Participant, or former Participant, or for his benefit pursuant to any provision of the Plan
shall be debited to such Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts. All benefit payments
shall be made in cash to the fullest extent practicable.

19

 

     9.10 Unclaimed Benefits. In the case of a benefit payable on behalf of a Participant or
former Participant, if the Plan Administrator is unable, after reasonable efforts, to locate the
Participant, the former Participant or the beneficiary to whom such benefit is payable, upon the
Plan Administrator’s determination thereof, such benefit shall be forfeited to the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if subsequent to any such forfeiture the Participant, the former
Participant or beneficiary to whom such benefit is payable makes a valid claim for such benefit,
such forfeited benefit (without any adjustment for earnings or loss) shall be restored to the Plan
by the Company and paid in accordance with the Plan.

     9.11 Plan Administrator Determination of Pay-Out of Certain Benefits. Notwithstanding any
provision in Section 3.06 to the contrary, the form of payment of a Participant’s or former
Participant’s benefits with respect to the portion of his Account attributable to the amount, if
any, credited to his Account on December 31, 1994, under the Plan as in effect immediately prior to
the January 1, 1995 restatement of the Plan, and the earnings and losses allocated with respect
thereto may, in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator, be changed from the form elected by
such Participant or former Participant pursuant to the provisions of the Plan as in effect
immediately prior to the January 1, 1995 restatement of the Plan to one or more other forms
provided in Section 9.04. In making its determination as to the form(s) of payment, the Plan
Administrator may consider the age, family status, health, financial status, or such other facts as
it deems relevant respecting the Participant or former Participant. The Participant or former
Participant may, but shall not be required to, express his preference to the Plan Administrator as
to such form(s) of payment, but the Plan Administrator shall be under no obligation to follow such
preference. Any such change shall be prior to the time such portion becomes payable to such
Participant or former Participant.

     9.12 Statutory Benefits. If any benefit obligations are required to be paid under the Plan to
a Participant or former Participant in conjunction with severance of employment under the laws of
the country where the Participant or former Participant is employed or under federal, state or
local law, the benefits paid to a Participant or former Participant pursuant to the provisions of
the Plan will be deemed to be in satisfaction of any statutorily required benefit obligations.

     9.13 Payment to Alternate Payee Under Domestic Relations Order. Plan benefits that are
awarded to an Alternate Payee in a Domestic Relations Order shall be paid to the Alternate Payee at
the time and in the form directed in the Domestic Relations Order. The Domestic Relations Order
may provide for an immediate lump sum payment to an Alternate Payee. A Domestic Relations Order
may not otherwise provide for a time or form of payment that is not permitted under the Plan. A
Domestic Relations Order will be disregarded to the extent it awards an Alternate Payee benefits in
excess of the applicable Participant’s or former Participant’s Vested Interest.

ARTICLE X

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

     10.01 Plan Administrator. Baker Hughes shall be the “Plan Administrator” and the “named
fiduciary” for purposes of ERISA and shall be subject to service of process on behalf of the Plan.

     10.02 Resignation and Removal. The members of a Committee serving as Plan Administrator shall
serve at the pleasure of the Board; they may be officers, directors, or Employees of the Company or
any other individuals. At any time during his term of office, any member of a Committee or any
individual serving as Plan Administrator may resign by giving written notice to the Board, such
resignation to become effective upon the appointment of a substitute or, if earlier, the lapse of
thirty days after such notice is given as herein provided. At any time during its term of office,
and for any reason, any member of a Committee or any individual serving as Plan Administrator may
be removed by the Board.

     10.03 Records and Procedures. The Plan Administrator shall keep appropriate records of its
proceedings and the administration of the Plan and shall make available for examination during
business hours to any Participant, former Participant or the beneficiary of any Participant or
former Participant such records as pertain to that individual’s interest in the Plan. If a
Committee is performing duties as the Plan Administrator, the Committee shall designate the
individual or individuals who shall be authorized to sign for the Plan Administrator and, upon such
designation, the signature of such individual or individuals shall bind the Plan Administrator.

     10.04 Self-Interest of Plan Administrator. Neither the members of a Committee nor any
individual Plan Administrator shall have any right to vote or decide upon any matter relating
solely to himself under the Plan or to vote in any case in which his individual right to claim any
benefit under the Plan is particularly involved. In any case in which any Committee member or
individual Plan Administrator is so disqualified to act, the other members of the Committee shall
decide the matter in which the Committee member or individual Plan Administrator is disqualified.

     10.05 Compensation and Bonding. Neither the members of a Committee nor any individual Plan
Administrator shall receive compensation with respect to their services on the Committee or as Plan
Administrator. To the extent required by applicable law, or required by the Company, neither the
members of a Committee nor any individual Plan Administrator shall furnish bond or security for the
performance of their duties hereunder.

     10.06 Plan Administrator Powers and Duties. The Plan Administrator shall supervise the
administration and enforcement of the Plan according to the terms and provisions hereof and shall
have all powers necessary to accomplish these purposes, including, but not by way of limitation,
the right, power, and authority:

     (a) to make rules, regulations, and bylaws for the administration of the Plan that are
not inconsistent with the terms and provisions hereof, and to enforce the terms of the Plan
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Plan Administrator;

21

 

     (b) to construe in its discretion all terms, provisions, conditions, and limitations of
the Plan;

     (c) to correct any defect or to supply any omission or to reconcile any inconsistency
that may appear in the Plan in such manner and to such extent as it shall deem in its
discretion expedient to effectuate the purposes of the Plan;

     (d) to employ and compensate such accountants, attorneys, investment advisors, and
other agents, employees, and independent contractors as the Plan Administrator may deem
necessary or advisable for the proper and efficient administration of the Plan;

     (e) to determine in its discretion all questions relating to eligibility;

     (f) to determine whether and when a Participant has incurred a Separation From Service
or Termination of Employment, and the reason for such termination;

     (g) to make a determination in its discretion as to the right of any individual to a
benefit under the Plan and to prescribe procedures to be followed by distributees in
obtaining benefits hereunder;

     (h) to receive and review reports from the Trustee as to the financial condition of the
Trust Fund, including its receipts and disbursements; and

     (i) to establish or designate Funds as deemed investment options as provided in Article
VI.

     10.07 Reliance on Documents, Instruments, etc. The Plan Administrator may rely on any
certificate statement or other representation made on behalf of the Company, any Employee or any
Participant, which the Plan Administrator in good faith believes to be genuine, and on any
certificate, statement, report or other representation made to it by any agent or any attorney,
accountant or other expert retained by it or the Company in connection with the operation and
administration of the Plan.

     10.08 Claims Review Procedures; Claims Appeals Procedures.

     (a) Claims Review Procedures. When a benefit is due, the Participant, or the
person entitled to Benefits under Section 9.06, should submit a claim to the office
designated by the Plan Administrator to receive claims. Under normal circumstances, the Plan
Administrator will make a final decision as to a claim within 90 days after receipt of the
claim. If the Plan Administrator notifies the claimant in writing during the initial 90-day
period, it may extend the period up to 180 days after the initial receipt of the claim. The
written notice must contain the circumstances necessitating the extension and the
anticipated date for the final decision. If a claim is denied during the claims period, the
Plan Administrator must notify the claimant in writing, and the written notice must set
forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant:

     (1) the specific reason or reasons for the denial;

22

 

     (2) specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based;

(3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the
claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information
is necessary; and

(4) an explanation of the Plan claims review procedures and time limits, including a
statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of
ERISA.

If a decision is not given to the Participant within the claims review period, the claim is treated
as if it were denied on the last day of the claims review period.

     (b) Claims Appeals Procedures. For purposes of this section the Participant or
the person entitled to Benefits under Section 10 is referred to as the “claimant.” If a
claimant’s claim made pursuant to Section 10.08(a) is denied and he wants a review, he must
apply to the Plan Administrator in writing. That application can include any arguments,
written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for
benefits. In addition, the claimant is entitled to receive on request and free of charge
reasonable access to and copies of all information relevant to the claim. For this purpose,
“relevant” means information that was relied on in making the benefit determination or that
was submitted, considered or generated in the course of making the determination, without
regard to whether it was relied on, and information that demonstrates compliance with the
Plan’s administrative procedures and safeguards for assuring and verifying that Plan
provisions are applied consistently in making benefit determinations. The Plan
Administrator must take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information
submitted by the claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether the information
was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The claimant may either
represent himself or appoint a representative, either of whom has the right to inspect all
documents pertaining to the claim and its denial. The Plan Administrator can schedule any
meeting with the claimant or his representative that it finds necessary or appropriate to
complete its review.

     The request for review must be filed within 90 days after the denial. If it is not, the
denial becomes final. If a timely request is made, the Plan Administrator must make its
decision, under normal circumstances, within 60 days of the receipt of the request for
review. However, if the Plan Administrator notifies the claimant prior to the expiration of
the initial review period, it may extend the period of review up to 120 days following the
initial receipt of the request for a review. All decisions of the Plan Administrator must be
in writing and must include the specific reasons for its action, the Plan provisions on
which its decision is based, and 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 for benefits, and a statement of the
claimant’s right to bring an action under section 502(a) of ERISA If a decision is not
given to the claimant within the review period, the claim is treated as if it were denied on
the last day of the review period.

23

 

     Within 60 days of receipt by a claimant of a notice denying a claim under the preceding
paragraph, the claimant or his or her duly authorized representative may request in writing
a full and fair review of the claim by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator may
extend the 60-day period where the nature of the benefit involved or other attendant
circumstances make such extension appropriate. In connection with such review, the claimant
or his or her duly authorized representative may review pertinent documents and may submit
issues and comments in writing. The Plan Administrator shall make a decision promptly, and
not later than 60 days after the Plan’s receipt of a request for review, unless special
circumstances (such as the need to hold a hearing) require an extension of time for
processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later
than 120 days after receipt of a request for review. The decision on review shall be in
writing and shall include specific reasons for the decision, written in a manner calculated
to be understood by the claimant, and specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions
on which the decision is based.

     10.09 Company to Supply Information. The Company shall supply full and timely information to
the Plan Administrator, including, but not limited to, information relating to each Participant’s
Base Compensation, Bonus, Ineligible Thrift Plan Compensation, Ineligible Pension Plan
Compensation, age, Retirement, death, or other cause of Termination of Employment and such other
pertinent facts as the Plan Administrator may require. The Company shall advise the Trustee of
such of the foregoing facts as are deemed necessary for the Trustee to carry out the Trustee’s
duties under the Plan and the Trust Agreement. When making a determination in connection with the
Plan, the Plan Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon the aforesaid information furnished by
the Company.

     10.10 Indemnity. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify and
save harmless the Board, each member of the Committee, each delegate of the Committee or the Board
and the Plan Administrator against any and all expenses, liabilities and claims (including legal
fees incurred to investigate or defend against such liabilities and claims) arising out of their
discharge in good faith of responsibilities under or incident to the Plan. Expenses and
liabilities arising out of willful misconduct shall not be covered under this indemnity. This
indemnity shall not preclude such further indemnities as may be available under insurance purchased
by the Company or provided by the Company under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise, as such indemnities are permitted under applicable law.

ARTICLE XI

ADMINISTRATION OF FUNDS

     11.01 Payment of Expenses. All expenses incident to the administration of the Plan and Trust,
including but not limited to, legal, accounting, Trustee fees, and expenses of the Plan
Administrator, may be paid by the Company and, if not paid by the Company, shall be paid by the
Trustee from the Trust Fund, if any.

     11.02 Trust Fund Property. All income, profits, recoveries, contributions, forfeitures and
any and all moneys, securities and properties of any kind at any time received or held by the

24

 

Trustee, if any, shall be held for investment purposes as a commingled Trust Fund pursuant to
the terms of the Trust Agreement. The Plan Administrator shall maintain one or more Accounts in
the name of each Participant or former Participant, but the maintenance of an Account designated as
the Account of a Participant or former Participant shall not mean that such Participant or former
Participant shall have a greater or lesser interest than that due him by operation of the Plan and
shall not be considered as segregating any funds or property from any other funds or property
contained in the commingled fund. No Participant or former Participant shall have any title to any
specific asset in the Trust Fund, if any.

ARTICLE XII

ADOPTION OF PLAN BY OTHER EMPLOYERS

     12.01 Adoption Procedure.

     (a) With the written approval of the Plan Administrator, any entity that is an
Affiliate may adopt the Plan by appropriate action of its board of directors or noncorporate
counterpart, as evidenced by a written instrument executed by an authorized officer of such
entity or an executed adoption agreement (approved by the board of directors or noncorporate
counterpart of the Affiliate), agreeing to be bound by all the terms, conditions and
limitations of the Plan except those, if any, specifically described in the adoption
instrument, and providing all information required by the Plan Administrator. The Plan
Administrator and the adopting Affiliate may agree to incorporate specific provisions
relating to the operation of the Plan that apply to the adopting Affiliate only and shall
become, as to such adopting Affiliate and its employees, a part of the Plan.

     (b) The provisions of the Plan may be modified so as to increase the obligations of an
adopting Affiliate only with the consent of such Affiliate, which consent shall be
conclusively presumed to have been given by such Affiliate unless the Affiliate gives the
Company written notice of its rejection of the amendment within 30 days after the adoption
of the amendment.

     (c) The provisions of the Plan shall apply separately and equally to each adopting
Affiliate and its employees in the same manner as is expressly provided for the Company and
its employees, except that the power to appoint or otherwise affect the Plan Administrator
and the power to amend or terminate the Plan shall be exercised by the Company. The Plan
Administrator shall act as the agent for each Affiliate that adopts the Plan for all
purposes of administration thereof.

     (d) Any adopting Affiliate may, by appropriate action of its board of directors or
noncorporate counterpart, terminate its participation in the Plan. Moreover, the Plan
Administrator may, in its discretion, terminate an Affiliate’s participation in the Plan at
any time.

     (e) The Plan will terminate with respect to any Affiliate that has adopted the Plan
pursuant to this Section if the Affiliate ceases to be an Affiliate or revokes its

25

 

adoption of the Plan by resolution of its board of directors or noncorporate
counterpart evidenced by a written instrument executed by an authorized officer of the
Affiliate. If the Plan terminates with respect to any Affiliate, the employees of that
Affiliate will no longer be eligible to be Participants in the Plan.

     (f) For purposes of the Code and ERISA, the Plan as adopted by the Affiliates shall
constitute a single plan rather than a separate plan of each Affiliate.

     12.02 No Joint Venture Implied. The document which evidences the adoption of the Plan by an
Affiliate shall become a part of the Plan. However, neither the adoption of the Plan by an
Affiliate nor any act performed by it in relation to the Plan shall ever create a joint venture or
partnership relation between it and any other Affiliate.

ARTICLE XIII

NATURE OF THE PLAN

AND ESTABLISHMENT OF THE TRUST

     13.01 Nature of the Plan. The Company intends and desires by the adoption of the Plan to
recognize the value to the Company of the past and present services of employees covered by the
Plan and to encourage and assure their continued service with the Company by making more adequate
provision for their future retirement security. The establishment of the Plan is, in part, made
necessary by certain benefit limitations which are imposed on the Thrift Plan and the Pension Plan
by the Code. The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded, unsecured plan of deferred
compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company. Plan
benefits herein provided are a contractual obligation of the Company which shall be paid out of the
Company’s general assets. Nevertheless, subject to the terms hereof and of the Trust Agreement,
the Company may transfer money or other property to the Trustee to provide Plan benefits hereunder,
and the Trustee shall pay Plan benefits to Participants, former Participants and their
beneficiaries out of the Trust Fund. To the extent the Company transfers assets to the Trustee
pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Plan Administrator may, but need not, establish procedures for
the Trustee to invest the Trust Fund in accordance with each Participant’s or former Participant’s
designated deemed investments pursuant to Article VI respecting the portion of the Trust Fund
assets equal to such Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts.

     13.02 Establishment of the Trust. The Board, in its sole discretion, may establish the Trust
and direct Baker Hughes, for and on behalf of each Company, to enter into the Trust Agreement. In
such event, the Company shall remain the owner of all assets in the Trust Fund and the assets shall
be subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors if the Company ever becomes insolvent. For
purposes hereof, the Company shall be considered “insolvent” if (a) the Company is unable to pay
its debts as they become due or (b) the Company is subject to a pending proceeding as a debtor
under the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor federal statute). The chief executive
officer of the Company and its board of directors shall have the duty to inform the Trustee in
writing if the Company becomes insolvent. Such notice given under the preceding sentence by any
party shall satisfy all of the parties’ duty to give notice. When so informed, the Trustee shall
suspend payments to the Participants and former

26

 

Participants and hold the assets for the benefit of the Company’s general creditors. If the
Company subsequently alleges that it is no longer insolvent or if the Trustee receives a written
allegation from a third party that the Company is insolvent, the Trustee shall suspend payments to
the Participants and former Participants and hold the Trust Fund for the benefit of the Company’s
general creditors, and shall determine in accordance with the Trust Agreement whether the Company
is insolvent. If the Trustee determines that the Company is not insolvent, the Trustee shall
resume payments to the Participants and former Participants. No Participant, former Participant or
beneficiary shall have any preferred claim to, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets
of the Trust Fund, and, upon commencement of participation in the Plan, each Participant and former
Participant shall have agreed to waive his priority credit position, if any, under applicable state
law with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund.

ARTICLE XIV

MISCELLANEOUS

     14.01 Plan Not Contract of Employment. The adoption and maintenance of the Plan shall not be
deemed to be a contract between the Company and any individual or to be consideration for the
employment of any individual. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to (a) give any individual
the right to be retained in the employ of the Company, (b) restrict the right of the Company to
discharge any individual at any time, (c) give the Company the right to require any individual to
remain in the employ of the Company, or (d) restrict any individual’s right to terminate his
employment at any time.

     14.02 Alienation of Interest Forbidden. The interest of a Participant, former Participant or
his beneficiary or beneficiaries hereunder may not be sold, transferred, assigned, or encumbered in
any manner, either voluntarily or involuntarily, and any attempt so to anticipate, alienate, sell,
transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, or charge the same shall be null and void; neither shall the
benefits hereunder be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or
torts of any individual to whom such benefits or funds are payable, nor shall they be an asset in
bankruptcy or subject to garnishment, attachment or other legal or equitable proceedings. The
provisions of this Section 14.02 shall not apply to a Domestic Relations Order.

     14.03 Withholding. All credits to a Participant’s or former Participant’s Accounts and
payments provided for hereunder shall be subject to applicable withholding and other deductions as
shall be required of the Company under any applicable local, state or federal law.

     14.04 Amendment and Termination. The Board, may from time to time, in its discretion, amend,
in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of the Plan on behalf of any Company; provided,
however, that no amendment may be made that would impair the rights of a Participant or former
Participant with respect to amounts already credited to his Accounts. The Board may terminate the
Plan at any time. If the Plan is terminated, (a) the Grandfathered Amounts credited to a
Participant’s or former Participant’s Account shall be paid to such Participant, or former
Participant, or his designated beneficiary in the manner specified by the Plan Administrator, which
may include the payment of a single lump sum payment in full satisfaction of all of such
Participant’s, former Participant’s or beneficiary’s benefits hereunder, and (b) any other amounts
credited to the Participant’s or former Participant’s Account shall be

27

 

paid to such Participant, or former Participant, or his designated beneficiary at the time(s)
and in the form(s) elected by the Participant or former Participant under Sections 3.06 and 4.05
(as such elections may have been changed pursuant to Section 3.07).

     14.05 Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any
reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions hereof; instead,
each provision shall be fully severable and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if said
illegal or invalid provision had never been included herein.

     14.06 Arbitration. Any controversy arising out of or relating to the Plan, including without
limitation, any and all disputes, claims (whether in tort, contract, statutory or otherwise) or
disagreements concerning the interpretation or application of the provisions of the Plan, the
Company’s employment of the Participant, or former Participant, and the termination of that
employment, shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Employee Benefit Plan Claims
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) then in effect. No
arbitration proceeding relating to the Plan may be initiated by either the Company or the
Participant, or former Participant, unless the claims review and appeals procedures specified in
Section 10.08 have been exhausted. Within ten (10) business days of the initiation of an
arbitration hereunder, the Company and the Participant, or former Participant, will each separately
designate an arbitrator, and within twenty (20) business days of selection, the appointed
arbitrators will appoint a neutral arbitrator from the panel of AAA National Panel of Employee
Benefit Plan Claims Arbitrators. The arbitrators shall issue their written decision (including a
statement of finding of facts) within thirty (30) days from the date of the close of the
arbitration hearing. The decision of the arbitrators selected hereunder will be final and binding
on both parties. This arbitration provision is expressly made pursuant to and shall be governed by
the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections 1-16 (or replacement or successor statute).
Pursuant to Section 9 of the Federal Arbitration Act, the Company and any Participant agrees that
any judgment of the United States District Court for the District in which the headquarters of
Baker Hughes is located at the time of initiation of an arbitration hereunder shall be entered upon
the award made pursuant to the arbitration. Nothing in this Section 14.06 shall be construed to,
in any way, limit the scope and effect of Article X. In any arbitration proceeding full effect
shall be given to the rights, powers, and authorities of the Plan Administrator under Article X.

     14.07 Compliance With Section 409A. Except with respect to Grandfathered Amounts, the Plan is
intended to comply with Section 409A and the Plan shall be interpreted and operated in a manner
consistent with this intention.

     14.08 Governing Law. All provisions of the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the
laws of Texas, except to the extent preempted by federal law and except to the extent that the
conflicts of laws provisions of the State of Texas would require the application of the relevant
law of another jurisdiction, in which event the relevant law of the State of Texas will nonetheless
apply, with venue for litigation being in Houston, Texas.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be executed by its duly
authorized officer this ___ day of                     , 2008.

     “Stock Option” or “Stock Options” are the stock options issued to Participants in
exchange for Deferred Compensation pursuant to Section 7, or if permitted by the Committee,
pursuant to any other plan that would permit the grant of options under the Plan.

     “Stock Option Price” means the price at which a Participant may purchase a Share

     “Unforeseeable Financial Emergency” means a severe financial hardship of the

property due to casualty (including the need to rebuild a home following damage to a home
not otherwise covered by insurance), or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable
circumstance arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. The
circumstances that will constitute an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency will depend upon the
facts of each case, but, in any case, payment may not be made to the extent that the
emergency is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or
otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of
such assets will not itself cause severe financial hardship. Such foreseeable needs for
funds as the desire to send a Participant’s child to college or to purchase a home will not
be considered to be unforeseeable emergencies. Whether an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency
exists and the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the emergency will be determined by the
Committee.

     “Voting Securities” means the outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors or other governing body.

1.3 Interpretation and Construction. As used in the Plan, unless the context otherwise
expressly requires to the contrary, references to the singular include the plural, and vice
versa; references to the masculine include the feminine and neuter; references to
“including” mean “including (without limitation),” and references to Sections mean the
sections of the Plan.

2. Administration.

     The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee is authorized to
interpret the Plan and may, from time to time, adopt such rules and regulations, consistent
with the provisions of the Plan, as it may deem advisable to carry out the Plan. All
determinations made by the Committee shall be final. No member of the Committee shall have
any right to vote or decide upon any matter relating to himself under the Plan or to vote in
any case in which his individual right to claim any benefit under the Plan is particularly
involved. The Committee may delegate to the Vice President of Human Resources or other
officer of the Company its duties for the day-to-day administration of the Plan, including
accepting deferral elections and accounting for deferrals and distributions under the Plan.
All expenses incurred in connection with the administration of the Plan shall be borne by
the Company.

5

 

     All determinations and decisions made by the Committee and the Board pursuant to the
provisions of the Plan and all related orders and resolutions of the Committee and the Board
shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company, its
stockholders, Directors, Participants and the estates and beneficiaries of Directors and
Participants.

3. Participation in the Plan.

3.1 Eligibility. Directors shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. An individual
shall be considered to be a Director until the close of business on the day preceding the
earlier of the first date the individual (1) becomes a common-law employee of the Company or
its subsidiaries or (2) ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason whatsoever.

3.2 Election to Participate. An eligible Director may elect to become a Participant by
electing to defer an integral percentage (from 1% to 100%) of his Compensation. All
elections shall be made in the form and manner prescribed by the Committee.

4. Compensation Deferrals.

4.1 Time of Elections. Compensation deferral elections shall be made with respect to each
calendar year. Except as specified in the following paragraph, any election by a
Participant to defer Compensation under the Plan must be made on or before the December 31st
preceding the calendar year to which the election relates or such earlier date as the
Committee may determine. Any such election shall apply to the Participant’s Compensation
for the period commencing on January 1st of the applicable calendar year and ending upon
December 31st of such calendar year.

     If a directorship commences during a calendar year, any deferral election with respect
to the first year of the directorship must be made by the Director within thirty (30) days
of the date he or she first becomes a Director. Any such deferral election will apply
commencing on the date he or she first becomes a Director to the Participant’s Compensation
for services performed subsequent to the election during the calendar year in which he or
she first becomes a Director.

4.2 Irrevocability of Elections. Any election to defer Compensation which may be made by a
Participant shall be irrevocable once made with respect to the calendar year. Any election
to defer Compensation made by a Participant with respect to any calendar year shall be
deemed to have been made with respect to each subsequent calendar year, unless the
Participant changes such election prior to the expiration of the time for making the
election with respect to the subsequent calendar year.

4.3 Retirement Income Deferrals. Deferrals of Retirement Income were allowed prior to
January 1, 2002. Amounts attributable to such deferrals shall be paid in accordance with
the Participants’ Retirement Income deferral elections made hereunder prior to January 1,
2002.

6

 

5. Election of Deferral Vehicles.

At the time of making a deferral election, a Participant shall select one or more deferral
vehicles (“Deferral Vehicles”) for the Participant’s Deferred Compensation respecting the
applicable calendar year or years as described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

5.1 Stock Option-Related Deferral Vehicles. The Participant’s Deferred Compensation shall
be exchanged for Stock Options. All Stock Options granted in exchange for Deferred
Compensation under the Plan shall be subject to all of the applicable terms and provisions
of the Plan or such other plan from which the Stock Option is granted.

     If Stock Options are elected, the Participant’s aggregate Deferred Compensation as of
the last day of each calendar quarter which would otherwise have been paid during such
quarter shall be increased by a multiplier of 4.4 and then divided by the Fair Market Value
of the Company’s Common Stock on the last day of such quarter to determine the number of
Stock Options to be granted in exchange for the Deferred Compensation.

5.2 Cash-Based Deferral Vehicles. The Participant’s Deferred Compensation shall be credited
to an Account established by the Committee as of the date or dates the Deferred Compensation
would otherwise have been paid. A Participant who elects a Cash-Based Deferral Vehicle
shall also elect whether to receive Prime Rate Equivalents or S&P 500 Equivalents for the
deferral period that commences on the date or dates such Deferred Compensation is credited
to the Account and ending on the Designated Date. All Deferred Compensation and interest
and earnings equivalents credited to an Account shall be nonforfeitable pending payment as
of the Designated Date.

     (a) Prime Rate Equivalents. To the extent Prime Rate Equivalents are elected,
interest equivalents will be credited to the Participant’s Account as of the last day of
each calendar month based upon the average daily balance in the Account for the month and
the prime lending rate as declared by Citibank, or such other lending institution as is
selected by the Committee, to be in effect from time to time.

     (b) S&P 500 Equivalents. To the extent S&P 500 Equivalents are elected, the
earnings (or loss) equivalents will be credited (or debited) to the Participant’s Account as
of the last day of each calendar quarter based upon the balance in the Account as of the
last day of the quarter and the returns realized by the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index for the
quarter.

     (c) Designated Date. At the time of making a deferral election, a Participant
shall specify the applicable time of payment of the Deferred Compensation (a “Designated
Date”).

     (1) Any Designated Date respecting Deferred Compensation subject to Prime Rate
Equivalents shall be as of the last day of a calendar month.

     (2) Any Designated Date respecting Deferred Compensation subject to S&P 500
Equivalents shall be as of the last day of a calendar quarter.

7

 

     (3) Except with respect to Grandfathered Amounts, a Designated Date must be
either (a) a specified date or (b) a date that follows the occurrence of the
Participant’s Separation from Service; provided, however, that in no event shall a
Designated Date be more than ten years from the date of the Participant’s Separation
from Service.

6. Shares Available for Stock Options.

6.1 Number of Shares Available for Stock Options. Subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 6.2, the number of Shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance to Participants
under the Plan shall be up to 500,000. These Shares may consist of authorized but unissued
Shares or previously issued Shares reacquired by the Company as treasury shares. The number
of Shares that are the subject of Stock Options under this Plan that are forfeited or
terminated or expire unexercised shall again immediately become available to be issued as
Stock Options under this Plan. Shares approved pursuant to the Long Term Incentive Plan of
Baker Hughes Incorporated, as amended, and the Baker Hughes Incorporated 1998 Employee Stock
Option Plan, as amended, that have not been awarded under such plans, including Shares that
are canceled, terminated, expired unexercised, settled in cash in lieu of Shares or in a
manner such that all or some of the Shares covered thereby are not issued to a participant
or are exchanged for a consideration that does not involve Shares, and Shares that are so
canceled, terminated, expired unexercised, settled in cash in lieu of Shares or in a manner
such that all or some of the Shares covered thereby are not issued to a participant or are
exchanged for a consideration that does not involved Shares, and Shares that are so
canceled, terminated, expired unexercised, settled in cash in lieu of Shares or in a manner
such that all or some of the Shares covered thereby are not issued to a participant or are
exchanged for a consideration that does not involve Shares, will immediately become
available for Stock Options under this Plan. The Shares described in the foregoing sentence
shall be included in the up to 500,000 Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan. The
Committee shall determine the appropriate methodology for calculating the number of Shares
issued pursuant to this Plan.

6.2 Adjustments in Authorized Shares. The existence of outstanding Stock Options shall not
affect in any manner the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or
authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the
capital stock of the Company or its business or any merger or consolidation of the Company,
or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock (whether or not such
issue is prior to, on a parity with or junior to the Shares) or the dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or
business or any other corporate act or proceeding of any kind, whether or not of a character
similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above.

     If there shall be any change in the Shares of the Company or the capitalization of the
Company through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend,
stock split, reverse stock split, split up, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of
shares, dividend in kind or other like change in capital structure or distribution (other
than normal cash dividends) to stockholders of the Company, the

8

 

Board, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants’
rights under the Plan, shall adjust, in an equitable manner, as applicable, the number and
kind of Shares that may be issued under the Plan, the number and kind of Shares subject to
outstanding Stock Options and other value determinations applicable to outstanding Stock
Options. In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or
stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Board shall be authorized to issue or
assume Stock Options by means of substitution of new Stock Options, as appropriate, for
previously issued Stock Options.

7. Stock Options.

7.1 Calculation of Exercise Price. The exercise price to be paid for each share of Common
Stock deliverable upon exercise of each Stock Option granted shall be equal to the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock at the time of grant as determined by the Committee.
The exercise price for each Stock Option shall be subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 6.2.

7.2 Terms and Conditions of Options. Stock Options shall be in such form as the Committee
may from time to time approve and shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

     (a) Exercise Periods for Stock Options. Each Stock Option shall vest and become
exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Each Stock Option shall be
exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, at any time after one year from the date
of grant and prior to the date which is ten years after the date of grant, subject to the
provisions of clause (b) of this Section 7.2 (the “Option Expiration Date”).

     (b) Exercise Periods in the Event of Directorship Termination. A Director’s
directorship shall terminate at the close of business on the day preceding the day he or she
ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason whatsoever. When a Director’s directorship
is terminated, each of his or her Stock Options and all rights thereunder shall expire three
years after the Director’s directorship terminates for any reason. Any Stock Options
unexercised at the time of the Director’s death (including the Director’s death which
results in termination of his or her directorship or the Director’s death during the
three-year period after his or her directorship terminates) may be exercised by the
Director’s estate or by the Person or Persons who acquire the right to exercise his or her
Stock Option by bequest or inheritance.

     (c) Transferability of Stock Options. Except as otherwise provided in the Stock Option
agreement, no Stock Option may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise
alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
Further, except as otherwise provided in the Stock Option agreement, all Stock Options
granted under the Plan shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by the
Participant. Any attempted assignment of a Stock Option in violation of this Section shall
be null and void.

9

 

     (d) Payment of Stock Option Price. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be
exercised in the form and manner as the Committee shall determine from time to time.

     Upon the exercise of any Stock Option, the Stock Option Price shall be payable
to the Company in full either (i) in cash or its equivalent; (ii) by tendering
previously acquired Shares having an aggregate fair market value at the time of
exercise equal to the total Stock Option Price (provided that the Shares that are
tendered must have been held by the Participant for at least six months prior to
their tender to satisfy the Stock Option Price); (iii) by a combination of (i) and
(ii); or (iv) any other method approved by the Committee in its sole discretion at
the time of grant and as set forth in the Stock Option.

     Subject to any governing rules or regulations, after the exercise of the Stock
Option and full payment of the Stock Option Price in the form and manner as the
Committee shall determine, the Director may pay the required fee and request a Share
certificate based upon the number of Shares purchased under the Stock Option through
the third-party administrator designated by the Committee to have this
administrative duty. In addition, the Company may, at its option, issue or cause to
be issued Share certificates.

     Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, all payments under all of the
methods indicated above shall be paid in United States dollars.

     (e) Listing and Registration of Shares. Each Stock Option shall be subject to the
requirement that if at any time the Committee determines, in its discretion, that the
listing, registration or qualification under the regulations of any securities exchange or
under any state or federal law of the Shares subject to the Stock Option, or the consent or
approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of,
or in connection with, the issue or purchase of the Shares under such Stock Option, the
Stock Option may not be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration,
qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained and the same shall
have been free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

     (f) Amendment. The Committee may, with the consent of the Person or Persons entitled
to exercise any outstanding Stock Option, amend such Stock Option; provided, however, that
any such amendment shall be subject to stockholder approval when required. No amendment
shall be made to an Option to extend the period of exercisability of the Option if such
amendment would cause the Participant to become subject to taxation under Section 409A.

     (g) Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of a Stock Option, the
Company may require the person exercising such Stock Option to represent and warrant at the
time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

10

 

     (h) Uncertificated Shares. To the extent that the Plan provides for issuance of
certificates to reflect the transfer of Shares, the transfer of such Shares may be effected
on a noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the rules of
any stock exchange.

     (i) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant
to the Plan or any Stock Option agreement. The Committee shall determine whether cash or
other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such
fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

     (j) Other Provisions.

     (i) The person or persons entitled to exercise, or who have exercised,
a Stock Option shall not be entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the
Company with respect to any Shares subject to such Stock Option until he or
she shall have become the holder of record of such Shares.

     (ii) No Stock Option shall be construed as limiting any right which
either the Company’s stockholders or the Board of Directors may have to
remove at any time from the Board of Directors, with or without cause, any
person to whom such Stock Option has been granted.

     (iii) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or the terms of any
Stock Option agreement, the Company shall not be required to issue any
Shares hereunder if such issuance would, in the judgment of the Committee,
constitute a violation of any state or federal law or of the rules or
regulations of any governmental regulatory body.

     (iv) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, the Committee may not
exercise any discretion with respect to this Section 7 which would be
inconsistent with the intent that the Plan meet the requirements of Rule
16b-3 promulgated by the Securities Exchange Commission under the Exchange
Act.

8. Payment of Amounts in Accounts.

8.1 Payment Generally. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8, the Deferred
Compensation and interest and earnings equivalents credited to a Participant’s Account(s)
with respect to a calendar year or years, as applicable, shall be paid in cash to the
Participant in one lump sum as of the Designated Date elected by the Participant. In the
absence of a valid election of a Designated Date by the Participant, effective as of the
date of the Participant’s deferral election for the applicable calendar year, the
Participant’s Designated Date for such calendar year shall be deemed to be the date of the
Participant’s Separation From Service.

11

 

8.2 Payment of Simultaneous Amounts. It is recognized that a Participant may elect to defer
Compensation with respect to more than one calendar year, so that Deferred Compensation and
interest and earnings equivalents are credited to the Participant’s Accounts with respect to
more than one calendar year, and the payment of such amounts with respect to more than one
calendar year may, but need not, become payable to the Participant as of the same Designated
Date.

8.3 Unforeseeable Financial Emergency. In the event that the Committee, upon written
petition of a Participant, determines in its sole discretion that such Participant has
suffered an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, such Participant shall be entitled to a
distribution in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (a) the amount determined by the
Committee as necessary to meet such Participant’s needs created by the Unforeseeable
Financial Emergency or (b) the then value of such Participant’s interest in his or her
Accounts. Such benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum payment as soon as
administratively practicable after the Committee has made its determination with respect to
the availability and amount of such benefit. If a Participant’s Accounts contain more than
one distribution subaccount, such benefit shall be considered to have been distributed,
first, from the subaccount with respect to which the earliest distribution would be made,
then, from the subaccount with respect to which the next earliest distribution would be
made, and continuing in such manner until the amount of such distribution has been
satisfied.

8.4 Disability. In the event of the Disability of the Participant, as determined in the
sole discretion of the Committee, all cash payments that would otherwise be made on a later
Designated Date under this Section 8 shall be accelerated by being made as soon as
practicable, following the Committee’s determination of such Disability, in one lump sum.

8.5 Death. In the event of the death of the Participant, all of the cash payments that
would otherwise be made on later Designated Date under this Section 8, shall be accelerated
by being made as soon as practicable following the death of the Participant. A Participant,
by written instrument filed with the Committee in such manner and form as it may prescribe,
may designate one or more beneficiaries to receive payment of the Participant’s Deferred
Compensation and interest or earnings equivalents in the event of the death of the
Participant. Any such beneficiary designation may be changed from time to time prior to the
death of the Participant. In the absence of a beneficiary designation on file with the
Committee at the time of the Participant’s death, the Deferred Compensation and interest or
earnings equivalents remaining to be paid to the Participant shall be paid to the executor
or administrator of the Participant’s estate.

8.6 Debiting of Plan Accounts. Once Deferred Compensation and interest or earnings
equivalents have been paid, such amounts shall be debited from the Participant’s Account,
and the Company shall no longer be accountable for such paid amounts.

9. Prohibition Against Assignment or Encumbrance.

     No right, title, interest or benefit hereunder shall ever be liable for or charged with
any of the torts or obligations of a Participant or any Person claiming under a Participant,
or be subject to seizure by any creditor of a Participant or any Person claiming under a
Participant. Except as to the selection of a “designated beneficiary” in the event of
death, no Participant or any Person claiming under a Participant shall have the power to
anticipate or dispose of any right, title, interest or benefit hereunder in any manner until
the same shall have been actually distributed free and clear of the terms of the Plan.

10. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

     Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee may at any time and from time to time
alter, amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, except that no
amendment, modification, suspension or termination that would adversely affect in any
material way the rights of any Participant under any Stock Option previously granted to such
Participant under the Plan shall be made without the written consent of such Participant or
to the extent stockholder approval is otherwise required by applicable legal requirements.
The Committee may terminate the Plan at any time with respect to periods following the date
such termination is effected. No amounts may be paid to a Participant or former Participant
under the Plan to the extent such a payment would be an acceleration of payment of deferred
compensation prohibited by Section 409A.

11. Nature of the Plan.

     The Plan constitutes an unfunded, unsecured liability of the Company to provide
benefits in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Company, at its election, may fund
the payment of benefits under the Plan by setting aside and investing, in an account on the
Company’s books, such funds as the Company may, from time to time, determine. Neither the
establishment of the Plan, the crediting of amounts to Accounts nor the setting aside of any
funds shall be deemed to create a trust. Legal and equitable title to any funds set aside
pursuant to the Plan shall remain in the Company, and neither the Participants nor any
persons claiming under the Participants shall have any security or other interest in such
funds. Any funds so set aside or acquired shall remain subject to the claims of the
creditors of the Company, present and future. The Plan is not subject to Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

12. Reorganization.

     The Company shall not merge or consolidate with any other entity or entities,
liquidate, dissolve, reorganize, or sell substantially all of its assets and business unless
and until a succeeding or continuing entity or entities agrees to assume and discharge the
obligations of the Company under this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of such an event, the
term “Company” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to such successor or
survivor entity or entities.

13. Acceleration of Vesting of Stock Options.

     Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of an
occurrence of a Change in Control, all Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall
become fully vested and immediately exercisable.

14. Miscellaneous.

14.1 Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any
reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and
the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been
included.

14.2 Requirements of Law. The issuance of Shares under the Plan shall be subject to all
applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or
national securities exchanges as may be required. The Company shall receive the
consideration required by law for the issuance of Shares under the Plan.

14.3 Securities Law Compliance. All transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with
all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successor under the Exchange Act, unless
determined otherwise by the Board. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the
Board fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law
and deemed advisable by the Board.

14.4 Compliance With Section 409A. Except with respect to Grandfathered Amounts, the Plan
shall be operated in compliance with Section 409A and the provisions of Section 409A shall
override any provisions of the Plan to the extent that they are inconsistent with Section
409A. Except with respect to Grandfathered Amounts the terms of this Agreement reflect the
manner in which the Plan has been operated in good faith compliance with Section 409A since
January 1, 2005.

14.5 Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, excluding
any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or
interpretation of the Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.
