 4 

 
the Board of Directors immediately prior to the acquisition of such fifty percent (50%) or more total combined voting power).

 5 

 
are classified by the Company as (A) leased from or otherwise employed by a third party; (B) independent contractors; or (C) contingent,
intermittent or temporary, even if any such classification is changed retroactively as a result of an audit, litigation or otherwise. Neither service as a director nor payment of a director’s fee by the Company shall be sufficient to constitute

 7 

 
the Closing Date, with the same level of responsibility, the same Annual Base Pay and in the same location.

a G-S Change of Control where such Participant’s last day of employment is no later than one (1) year of the Closing Date; provided, however, that a termination for Cause is not a Triggering Termination, and provided further that the
Participant did not decline an offer of a Substantially Similar Position. In addition, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, a Triggering Termination shall not be considered to result from any of the following events or a transfer of
employment in connection with any of the following events: a divestiture or other change of ownership or management of any club, resort or property, including without limitation a transaction pursuant to which the employer of the Participant after
the transaction is not (or is no longer) ClubCorp, Inc. (or any successor company) or any company which is a member of a controlled group of corporations (within the meaning of Code section 414(b)) of which ClubCorp, Inc. (or a successor company) is
a component member, where the Participant remains in substantially the same position as the Participant held prior to the divestiture, transfer or other change of ownership of a club or resort as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. A
Triggering Termination shall also not be considered to result from the current proposed change of ownership of Pinehurst, Inc. 
 “Triggering Termination Date” shall mean the Participant’s last day of employment as a result of a Triggering Termination. 
  

 8 

 “Year of Service” shall mean the twelve (12) month period beginning on the date the

of Service, whereby a Participant who has worked for the Company longer than the amount of time such Participant was gone, then whole years of prior service will be counted for purposes of calculating Years of Service.

 (i) To construe and interpret the terms and provisions of this Plan and to make factual determinations;

procedures for the administration of the Plan as are not inconsistent with the terms hereof; 
  

 14 

 (vi) To appoint a plan administrator or any other agent, and to delegate to them such
powers and duties in connection with the administration of the Plan as the Administrator may from time to time prescribe; and 
 (vii) To determine who shall be a Participant. 
 6.2 Construction and Interpretation. 
 (a) The Administrator shall have full discretion to construe and interpret the terms and provisions of this Plan, which interpretation or construction
shall be final and binding on all parties, including but not limited to, the Company and any Participant or any beneficiary. The Administrator shall administer such terms and provisions in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner and in full
accordance with any and all laws applicable to the Plan. 
 (b) Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company from
taking any action which is deemed by it to be appropriate or in its best interest. No Participant, beneficiary, or other person shall have any claim against the Company as a result of such action. Any decisions, actions or interpretations to be made
under the Plan by the Company or the Board, or the Administrator acting on behalf of the Company, shall be made in its respective sole discretion, not as a fiduciary, need not be uniformly applied to similarly situated individuals and shall be
final, binding and conclusive on all persons interested in the Plan. 
  

 15 

 6.3 Information. 
 To enable the Administrator to perform its functions, the Company shall supply full and timely information to the Administrator on all matters relating to all Participants, their death, or other cause of termination,
and such other pertinent facts as the Administrator may require. 
 6.4 Compensation, Expenses and Indemnity. 
 (a) The Administrator is authorized at the expense of the Company to employ such legal counsel as it may deem advisable to assist in the performance of
its duties hereunder. Expenses and fees in connection with the administration of the Plan shall be paid by the Company. 
 (b) To the extent
permitted by applicable state law, the Company shall indemnify and save harmless the Administrator and each member thereof, the Board and any delegate of the Administrator who is an employee of the Company against any and all expenses, liabilities
and claims, including legal fees to defend against such liabilities and claims arising out of their discharge in good faith of responsibilities under or incident to the Plan, other than expenses and liabilities arising out of willful misconduct.
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 or otherwise, as such indemnities are permitted under state law.

 ARTICLE 7 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 7.1 Unsecured General Creditor. 
 Participants and their beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interest in any specific property or assets of the Company. No assets of 

  

 16 

 
the Company shall be held under any trust, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under this Plan.
Any and all of the Company’s assets shall be, and remain, the general unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay
money in the future, and the rights of the Participants and beneficiaries shall be no greater than those of unsecured general creditors. 
 7.2
Restriction Against Assignment. 
 The Company shall pay all amounts payable hereunder only to the person or persons designated by
the Plan and not to any other person or corporation. No Participant shall be liable for the debts, contracts, or engagements of any Participant, his or her beneficiary, or successors in interest, nor shall Participant’s benefits under this Plan
be subject to execution by levy, attachment, or garnishment or by any other legal or equitable proceeding, nor shall any such person have any right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber, or assign any benefits or payments hereunder in
any manner whatsoever. If any Participant, beneficiary or successor-in-interest is adjudicated bankrupt or purports to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any distribution or payment from the Plan, voluntarily or
involuntarily, the Administrator, in its discretion, may cancel such distribution or payment (or any part thereof) to or for the benefit of such Participant, beneficiary or successor-in-interest in such manner as the Administrator shall direct.

  

 17 

 7.3 Withholding. 
 There shall be deducted from each payment made under the Plan or other compensation payable to the Participant (or beneficiary) all taxes which are required to be withheld by the Company in respect to such payment of
this Plan. The Company shall have the right to reduce any payment (or other compensation) by the amount of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes. 
 7.4 Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Termination. 
 Prior to the Closing Date, the Board may at any time, or
from time to time, in its sole discretion amend or terminate the Plan in any manner that the Board deems appropriate, including amending or terminating all or any portion of the Plan, if necessary or appropriate to comply with changes to applicable
law, without the consent of any Participant. After the Closing Date, no amendment or termination is permitted if it decreases or impairs the rights of Participants. 
 7.5 Governing Law. 
 This Plan shall be construed, governed and administered in accordance
with the laws of the State of Texas. 
 7.6 Receipt or Release. 
 Any payment to a Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Administrator and the
Company. The Administrator may require such Participant or beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect, including but not limited to a Severance Payment and Release Agreement. 
  

 18 

 Severance offers will generally remain open until thirty (30) days after the Participant’s
receipt of the Severance Payment and Release Agreement. If the Severance Payment and Release Agreement has not been fully executed and received by the Company by that date, the offer in the Severance Payment and Release Agreement, including but not
limited to the benefits available under this Plan (if any), will automatically expire and be withdrawn without further notice to the Participant, and without further action required by the Company. The Participant will receive no additional
consideration. 
 7.7 Payments on Behalf of Persons Under Incapacity. 
 In the event that any amount becomes payable under the Plan to a person who, in the sole judgment of the Administrator, is considered by reason of
physical or mental condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the Administrator may direct that such payment be made to any person found by the Administrator, in its sole judgment, to have assumed the care of such person. Any payment
made pursuant to such determination shall constitute a full release and discharge of the Administrator and the Company. 
 7.8 Headings.

 Headings and subheadings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction
of the provisions hereof. 
 7.9 Statement of ERISA Rights. 
 As a Participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all Plan Participants shall be entitled to:

  

 19 

	 	1)	Examine, without charge, at the Administrator’s office and at other specified locations, such as worksites and union halls, all documents governing the Plan, including
insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Employee Benefits Security
Administration. 

  

	 	2)	Obtain, upon written request to the Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and
copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated Summary Plan Description. The Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. 

  

	 	3)	Receive a summary of the Plan’s annual financial report. The Administrator is required by law to furnish each Participant with a copy of this summary annual report.

 In addition to creating rights for Plan Participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the
operation of your Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called “fiduciaries” of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan Participants and beneficiaries. No one, including the Company, a union, or
any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a pension benefit under the Plan or for exercising your rights under ERISA. 
  

 20 

 If your claim for a pension benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you have a right to know
why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decisions without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. 
 Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of plan documents or the latest annual report from the plan and do not receive them within thirty
(30) days, you may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the court may require the Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of
reasons beyond the control of the Administrator. If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or Federal court. If it should happen that the Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s
assets, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are
successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. 
 If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights
under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Employee Benefits Security Administration at the U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the
Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also 

  

 21 

 
obtain certain publications about your rights and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Employee Benefits Security
Administration. 
 7.10 Claims Procedure. 
 Normally, whenever you or your beneficiary becomes entitled to receive benefits under the Plan, procedures will automatically be initiated to provide for the payment of such benefits. 
 If you are not contacted when you become entitled to benefits, or if you have any questions or concerns about actions taken by the Administrator, you may
file a written claim with the Administrator for the benefits to which you (or your beneficiary) feel entitled. In addition, if you (or your beneficiary) feel you are being denied any benefit or right provided under the Plan, you (or your
beneficiary) (as the “Claimant”) must file a written claim with the Administrator. All such claims shall be submitted on a form provided by the Administrator which shall be signed by the Claimant and shall be considered filed on the date
the claim is received by the Administrator. 
 The Administrator will respond to a claim for benefits within ninety (90) days after it
receives such claim, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If an extension is required, the Claimant will be notified, in writing, of such extension prior to the termination of the initial ninety
(90) day period. If an extension is required, the Administrator will notify Claimant of a decision no later than one hundred and eighty (180) days after the claim for benefits is filed. 
 Any time a claim for benefits is denied by the Administrator in whole or in part, the Administrator will notify the Claimant in writing. The notification
will set forth: (i) the specific reason or reasons for the adverse determination, (ii) the specific reference to Plan provisions on 

  

 22 

 
which the determination is based, (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his claim and an
explanation of why such material or information is necessary, (iv) information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit a request for review, including applicable time limits, and (v) the Claimant’s right to bring
a civil action under section 502(a) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). 
 If the
Claimant disagrees with the denial of benefits, the Claimant or his authorized representative may submit an appeal. Any appeal of an adverse benefit determination must be submitted in writing to the Administrator within sixty (60) days after
receipt of the Administrator’s notice of an adverse benefit determination, requesting that the Administrator review the claim. With the request for appeal, the Claimant may also submit additional written comments, documents, records, and other
information relating to his claim for benefits. In conducting its review, the Administrator shall consider any written statement or other evidence presented by the Claimant or his authorized representative in support of his claim, regardless as to
whether this information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The Administrator shall give the Claimant and his authorized representative reasonable access to all pertinent documents necessary for the preparation of his
claim. 
 If a Claimant fails to appeal within sixty (60) days of receiving the Administrator’s notice of a denial of benefits, the
Administrator’s determination will be final, binding, and conclusive. 
 The Administrator will respond to a written application for
review of a claim within sixty (60) days after it receives such written application, unless special circumstances require an extension 

  

 23 

 
of time for processing the claim. If an extension is required, the Claimant will be notified, in writing, of such extension prior to the termination of the
initial sixty (60) day period. If an extension is required, the Administrator will notify Claimant of a decision on appeal no later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the claim for benefits is filed. 
 The Administrator’s notification of decision on appeal will contain: (i) the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (ii) specific
references to Plan provisions on which the benefit determination is based, (iii) a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all material and required information
relevant to the claim for benefits, (iv) a statement describing any voluntary appeals offered by the Plan, including information concerning the procedures of the voluntary appeal that would allow the Claimant to make an informed decision about
whether to appeal and such other information which the Administrator determines is appropriate regarding alternative dispute resolution options, and (v) a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action under section 502(a) of ERISA.

 ARTICLE 2 
 PARTICIPATION 
 Each Eligible Employee shall automatically participate in this Plan; provided,
however, that only a Participant who suffers a Triggering Termination is eligible for any benefits under this Plan. 
 ARTICLE 3

 SEVERANCE BENEFIT 
 3.1
Entitlement to Severance Benefits. 
 In the event a Participant suffers a Triggering Termination, such Participant shall be
entitled to receive a Severance Benefit. 
 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, including without limitation the
immediately preceding paragraph, if the Company has entered into an employment agreement with the Participant, or if the Participant is entitled to a severance benefit under any other plan or program sponsored by the Company, pursuant to which the
Participant is entitled to and receives a severance payment equal to or greater than the Severance Benefit to which the Participant would otherwise be entitled under this Plan, the Participant will not be eligible for a Severance Benefit under this
Plan. 
 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, including without limitation the first paragraph of this Section, if the
Company has entered into an employment agreement with the Participant, or if the Participant is entitled to a severance benefit under any other plan or program sponsored by the Company, pursuant to which the Participant is entitled to and receives a
severance payment which is less than the Severance Benefit to which the Participant would otherwise be entitled under this Plan, the Participant’s Severance Benefit under this Plan will be an amount equal 
  

 7 

 to the excess of (a) the Severance Benefit to which the Participant would otherwise be entitled under this Plan
except for the operation of this paragraph, over (b) the payment made under the employment agreement or other plan or program. 
 3.2 Form of
Payment. 
 A Participant’s Severance Benefit, if any, will be paid in a single lump sum. Such lump sum payment will be made by
the tenth (10th) business day after the date the Participant fully and properly executes the required Severance
Payment and Release Agreement, provided, however, that payment of a Participant’s Severance Benefit will not be made until after the end of any applicable rescission period. 
 3.3 Subsequent Employment. 
 If a Participant who suffered a Triggering Termination
subsequently finds employment within the Company following receipt of a lump sum payment of his Severance Benefit, the Participant will be treated as any other rehire. 
 3.4 Amounts Due to the Company. 
 Any outstanding balance owed by the Participant in connection
with any associate club privileges will be deducted from payments made under this Plan. The Participant will be responsible for any additional or remaining charges processed after receipt of all payments under this Plan. 
 The Participant must pay any money owed to the Company and return all Company-owned property. Any monies owed to the Company, if not paid, will be
deducted from payments made under this Plan. Office space, voice mail and e-mail will cease as of the last day worked. 
  

 8 

 3.5 Status for State or Federal Unemployment Purposes. 
 Benefits under this Plan are in lieu of notice that the Participant’s employment will end, and therefore the Participant will not be considered or
reported as eligible for unemployment compensation for the period of time covered by any Severance Benefit received. 
 ARTICLE 4

 ADDITIONAL BENEFITS 
 A Participant shall also be entitled to such Participant’s applicable Club Benefits, Relocation Benefit and Outplacement Services, if any, upon a Triggering Termination. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 OTHER BENEFITS 
 Participants will be paid all wages earned through their last day worked in accordance with applicable law. Associate club privileges will end as of the

twenty (20) days, or as otherwise mandated by state law, as provided in the Participant’s applicable benefits handbook entitled “Our Benefits Guide.” Vacation will be paid in accordance with the Company’s vacation policy.

Plan, the Individual Investment Plan, the Employee Stock Ownership Plan, the Long Term Disability Program, the Group Term Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance, the Supplemental Life Insurance, the Omnibus Stock Plan, the Change of
Control Severance Plan, any stockholder agreements and any bonus or variable compensation programs.

 (a) The Administrator shall have full discretion to construe and interpret the terms and provisions of this Plan, which interpretation or construction
shall be final and binding on all parties, including but not limited to, the Company and any Participant or any beneficiary. The Administrator shall administer such terms and provisions in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner and in full
accordance with any and all laws applicable to the Plan. 
 (b) Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company from
taking any action which is deemed by it to be appropriate or in its best interest. No Participant, beneficiary, or other person shall have any claim against the Company as a result of such action. Any decisions, actions or interpretations to be made
under the Plan by the Company or the Board, or the Administrator acting on behalf of the Company, shall be made in its respective sole discretion and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons interested in the Plan. 
 6.3 Information. 
 To enable the Administrator
to perform its functions, the Company shall supply full and timely information to the Administrator on all matters relating to all Participants, their death, or other cause of termination, and such other pertinent facts as the Administrator may

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 or otherwise, as such indemnities are permitted under state law.

 ARTICLE 7 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 7.1 Unsecured General Creditor. 
 Participants and their beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interest in any specific property or assets of the Company. No assets of the Company shall be
held under any trust, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company’s assets shall be, and remain, the general unpledged, unrestricted assets of the
Company. The Company’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future, and the rights of the Participants and beneficiaries shall be no greater than those of
unsecured general creditors. 
  

 12 

 7.2 Restriction Against Assignment. 
 The Company shall pay all amounts payable hereunder only to the person or persons designated by the Plan and not to any other person or corporation. No
Participant shall be liable for the debts, contracts, or engagements of any Participant, his or her beneficiary, or successors in interest, nor shall Participant’s benefits under this Plan be subject to execution by levy, attachment, or
garnishment or by any other legal or equitable proceeding, nor shall any such person have any right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber, or assign any benefits or payments hereunder in any manner whatsoever. If any Participant,
beneficiary or successor-in-interest purports to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any distribution or payment from the Plan, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Administrator, in its discretion, may cancel such
distribution or payment (or any part thereof) to or for the benefit of such Participant, beneficiary or successor-in-interest in such manner as the Administrator shall direct. 
 7.3 Withholding. 
 There shall be deducted from each payment made under the Plan or other
compensation payable to the Participant (or beneficiary) all taxes which are required to be withheld by the Company in respect to such payment of this Plan. The Company shall have the right to reduce any payment (or other compensation) by the amount
of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes. 
  

 13 

 7.4 Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Termination. 
 The Board may at any time, or from time to time, in its sole discretion amend or terminate the Plan in any manner that the Board deems appropriate,
including amending or terminating all or any portion of the Plan, if necessary or appropriate to comply with changes to applicable law, without the consent of any Participant; provided, however that no amendment or termination is permitted in
relation to a Participant who has suffered a Triggering Termination at the time of the effective date such amendment or termination if it decreases or impairs the rights of such Participant. 
 7.5 Governing Law. 
 This Plan shall be
construed, governed and administered in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas. 
 7.6 Receipt or Release. 
 Any payment to a Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full
satisfaction of all claims against the Administrator and the Company. The Administrator may require such Participant or beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect, including but not limited
to a Severance Payment and Release Agreement. 
 Severance offers will generally remain open until thirty (30) days after the
Participant’s receipt of the Severance Payment and Release Agreement. If the Severance Payment and Release Agreement has not been fully executed and received by the Company by that date, the offer in the Severance Payment and Release Agreement,
including but not limited to the benefits available under this Plan (if any), will automatically expire and be withdrawn without further notice to the Participant, and without further action required by the Company. The Participant will receive no
additional consideration. 
  

 14 

 7.7 Payments on Behalf of Persons Under Incapacity. 
 In the event that any amount becomes payable under the Plan to a person who, in the sole judgment of the Administrator, is considered by reason of
physical or mental condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the Administrator may direct that such payment be made to any person found by the Administrator, in its sole judgment, to have assumed the care of such person. Any payment
made pursuant to such determination shall constitute a full release and discharge of the Administrator and the Company. 
 7.8 Headings.

 Headings and subheadings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction
of the provisions hereof. 
 7.9 Statement of ERISA Rights. 
 As a Participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all Plan Participants shall be entitled to:

 (a) Examine, without charge, at the Administrator’s office and at other specified locations, such as worksites and union halls, all
documents governing the Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure
Room of the Employee Benefits Security Administration. 
  

 15 

 (b) Obtain, upon written request to the Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the
Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated Summary Plan Description. The Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. 
 (c) Receive a summary of the Plan’s annual financial report. The Administrator is required by law to furnish each Participant with a copy of this
summary annual report. 
 In addition to creating rights for Plan Participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for
the operation of your Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called “fiduciaries” of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan Participants and beneficiaries. No one, including the Company, a
union, or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a pension benefit under the Plan or for exercising your rights under ERISA. 
 If your claim for a pension benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents
relating to the decisions without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. 
 Under ERISA, there are steps you
can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of plan documents or the latest annual report from the plan and do not receive them within thirty (30) days, you may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the
court may require the Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the Administrator. If you have a claim for
benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state 
  

 16 

 or Federal court. If it should happen that the Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s assets, or if you are
discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court
may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. 
 If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights
under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Employee Benefits Security Administration at the U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the
Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also obtain certain publications about your rights and
responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Employee Benefits Security Administration. 
 7.10 Claims Procedure.

 Normally, whenever you or your beneficiary becomes entitled to receive benefits under the Plan, procedures will automatically be
initiated to provide for the payment of such benefits. 
 If you are not contacted when you become entitled to benefits, or if you have any
questions or concerns about actions taken by the Administrator, you may file a written claim with the Administrator for the benefits to which you (or your beneficiary) feel entitled. In addition, if you (or your beneficiary) feel you are being
denied any benefit or right provided under the Plan, you (or your 
  

 17 

 beneficiary) (as the “Claimant”) must file a written claim with the Administrator. All such claims shall be
submitted on a form provided by the Administrator which shall be signed by the Claimant and shall be considered filed on the date the claim is received by the Administrator. 
 The Administrator will respond to a claim for benefits within ninety (90) days after it receives such claim, unless special circumstances require an
extension of time for processing the claim. If an extension is required, the Claimant will be notified, in writing, of such extension prior to the termination of the initial ninety (90) day period. If an extension is required, the Administrator
will notify Claimant of a decision no later than one hundred and eighty (180) days after the claim for benefits is filed. 
 Any time a
claim for benefits is denied by the Administrator in whole or in part, the Administrator will notify the Claimant in writing. The notification will set forth: (a) the specific reason or reasons for the adverse determination, (b) the
specific reference to Plan provisions on which the determination is based, (c) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his claim and an explanation of why such material or information is
necessary, (d) information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit a request for review, including applicable time limits, and (e) the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). 
 If the Claimant disagrees with the denial of benefits, the
Claimant or his authorized representative may submit an appeal. Any appeal of an adverse benefit determination must be submitted in writing to the Administrator within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Administrator’s 
  

 18 

 notice of an adverse benefit determination, requesting that the Administrator review the claim. With the request for
appeal, the Claimant may also submit additional written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to his claim for benefits. In conducting its review, the Administrator shall consider any written statement or other evidence
presented by the Claimant or his authorized representative in support of his claim, regardless as to whether this information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The Administrator shall give the Claimant and his
authorized representative reasonable access to all pertinent documents necessary for the preparation of his claim. 
 If a Claimant fails to
appeal within sixty (60) days of receiving the Administrator’s notice of a denial of benefits, the Administrator’s determination will be final, binding, and conclusive. 
 The Administrator will respond to a written application for review of a claim within sixty (60) days after it receives such written application,
unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If an extension is required, the Claimant will be notified, in writing, of such extension prior to the termination of the initial sixty (60) day period. If an
extension is required, the Administrator will notify Claimant of a decision on appeal no later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the claim for benefits is filed. 
 The Administrator’s notification of decision on appeal will contain: (a) the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (b) specific
references to Plan provisions on which the benefit determination is based, (c) a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all material and required information
relevant to the claim for benefits, (d) a statement describing any voluntary appeals offered by the Plan, including information 
  

 19 

 concerning the procedures of the voluntary appeal that would allow the Claimant to make an informed decision about
whether to appeal and such other information which the Administrator determines is appropriate regarding alternative dispute resolution options, and (e) a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action under section 502(a) of ERISA.
