 Effective     /    /200   (the “Grant Date”),
you have been granted «Shares» shares of Common Stock of Harley-Davidson, Inc. (the “Company”) constituting Restricted Stock under the Company’s 2004 Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”). 
 All of the Restricted Stock will become fully unrestricted (or “vest”) on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date, subject to accelerated vesting and
forfeiture as discussed below. You may not sell, transfer or otherwise convey an interest in or pledge any of your Shares of Restricted Stock until they are vested. In addition, (i) you cannot sell or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Stock
that has vested except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and any applicable state securities laws or in a transaction that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, is exempt from such registration
and (ii) the Company may place a legend on any certificates for such Shares to such effect. 
 The Shares of Restricted Stock are granted under and
governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Restricted Stock Agreement including Exhibit A. Additional provisions regarding your Restricted Stock and definitions of capitalized terms used and not defined in this Restricted Stock
Agreement can be found in the Plan. Without limitation, “Committee” means the Human Resources Committee of the Board or its delegate in accordance with the Plan.

 Exhibit A to Restricted Stock Agreement 
 Termination of Employment: If your employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement, then
you will forfeit any Shares of Restricted Stock that are not vested as of the date your employment is terminated. If you cease to be employed by the Company and its Affiliates by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, then, effective immediately
prior to the time of cessation of employment, a portion of the unvested Restricted Stock will vest, which portion will be equal to the number of unvested Shares multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Months (counting a
partial Month as a full Month) from the Grant Date until the date your employment is terminated by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, and the denominator of which is 48 months, and you will forfeit the remaining Shares of Restricted Stock
that are not vested. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Month” shall mean the period that begins on the first calendar day after the Grant Date, or the anniversary of the Grant Date that occurs in each calendar month, and ends on the
anniversary of the Grant Date that occurs in the following calendar month. 
 Issuance of Share Certificates: The Company may issue in your name
certificate(s) evidencing your Shares of Restricted Stock. In addition to any other legends placed on the certificate(s), such certificate(s) will bear the following legend: 
 The shares of Stock represented by this certificate are subject to forfeiture, and the sale or other transfer of the shares of Stock represented by this
certificate (whether voluntary or by operation of law) is subject to certain restrictions, as set forth in a Restricted Stock Agreement, dated as of
                    , by and between Harley-Davidson, Inc. and the registered owner hereof. A copy of such Agreement may be obtained from the
Secretary of Harley-Davidson, Inc. 
 Upon the vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock, you will be entitled to a new certificate for the Shares that have
vested, without the foregoing legend, upon making a request for such certificate to the Secretary of the Company or to such other person as the Company may designate. 
 In lieu of issuing in your name certificate(s) evidencing your Shares of Restricted Stock, the Company may cause its transfer agent or other agent to reflect on its records your ownership of such Shares, subject to
the terms of this Restricted Stock Agreement. 
 [over] 

 Voting Rights and Dividends: While your Shares of Restricted Stock are subject to forfeiture, you may exercise
full voting rights and will receive all cash dividends and other distributions paid with respect to the Restricted Stock (reduced for any tax withholding due), in each case so long as the applicable record date occurs before you forfeit such Shares.
If, however, any dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, such Shares will be subject to the same risk of forfeiture, restrictions on transferability and other terms of this Restricted Stock Agreement as are the Shares of Restricted Stock with
respect to which they were paid. 
 Tax Withholding: To the extent that your receipt of Restricted Stock or the vesting of Restricted Stock results in
income to you for federal, state or local taxes, you must deliver to the Company or to such other person as the Company may designate at the time the Company is obligated to withhold taxes that arise from such receipt or vesting, as the case may be,
such amount as the Company requires to meet its withholding obligation under applicable tax laws or regulations. If you fail to deliver such amount as the Company requires, the Company has the right and authority to deduct or withhold from other
compensation it would pay to you an amount, and/or to treat you as having surrendered vested Shares of Restricted Stock having a value, sufficient to satisfy its withholding obligations. 
 When income results from the vesting of Restricted Stock, to the extent the Company permits you to do so, you may satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by electing to have the Company accept that
number of vested Shares of Restricted Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that the Company must withhold in connection with the vesting of such Shares. If you
would be left with a fractional share after satisfying the withholding obligation on the Restricted Stock, the fair market value of that fractional share will be applied to your general federal tax withholding. If the Company does not allow you to
elect to have the Company accept vested Shares of Restricted Stock, or if you want to keep all of the shares that are vesting, you will have to deliver to the Company or to such other person as the Company may designate funds in an amount sufficient
to cover the withholding tax obligation on a date advised by the Company. Where you may elect to deliver funds to satisfy the withholding tax obligation, your election to deliver funds must be irrevocable, in writing, and submitted to the Secretary
or to such other person as the Company may designate on or before the date that the Company specifies, which will be before the applicable vesting date, and if you fail to deliver such election then you will be deemed to have elected to have the
Company accept vested Shares of Restricted Stock as described above. 
 If you do so within thirty (30) days of the Grant Date, you may make an election
under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for this Award so that the receipt of the Restricted Stock, rather than vesting, results in income. In that case, you will have to deliver to the Company or to such other
person as the Company may designate funds in an amount sufficient to cover the withholding tax obligation. 
 Rejection/Acceptance: You may return
this Restricted Stock Agreement to the Company (in care of the Vice President and Treasurer) within thirty (30) days after the Grant Date, together with any certificate you have received evidencing Shares, and by doing so you will forfeit any
rights under this Restricted Stock Agreement and any rights to Shares that the Company has transferred to you under this Restricted Stock Agreement. If you choose to retain this Restricted Stock Agreement beyond that date, then you accept the terms
of this Award, acknowledge these tax implications and agree and consent to all amendments to the Plan and the Harley-Davidson, Inc. 1995 Stock Option Plan through the Grant Date as they apply to this Award and any prior awards of any kind to you
under such plans.Amended & restated Management Deferred Compensation Plan

 HARLEY-DAVIDSON 
 MANAGEMENT DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 
 Harley-Davidson Motor Company Group, Inc. (the
“Company”) maintains the Harley-Davidson Management Deferred Compensation Plan for the benefit of eligible employees of the Company and its Affiliates. 
 The Plan is intended to promote the best interests of the Company and its Affiliates by attracting and retaining key management employees possessing a strong interest in the successful operation of the Company and its
Affiliates and encouraging their continued loyalty, service and counsel to the Company and its Affiliates. The Plan is amended and restated effective January 1, 2009 to comply with final regulations under Code Section 409A. 

 ARTICLE I. DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION 
 Section 1.01. Definitions. 
 The following terms have the meanings indicated below unless the context in which the term is used clearly indicates otherwise: 
 (a) Account: The record keeping account or accounts maintained to record the interest of each Participant under the Plan. An Account is established for record keeping purposes only and not to reflect (or require) the
physical segregation of assets on the Participant’s behalf. To the extent relevant with respect to any Participant, the Participant’s overall Account may consist of such subaccounts or balances as the Administrator may determine to be
necessary or appropriate. 
 (b) Administrator: The Retirement Plans Committee appointed by the Board. 
 (c) Affiliate: Each corporation, trade or business that, with the Company, forms part of a controlled group of corporations or group of trades or
businesses under common control within the meaning of Code Sections 414(b) or (c); provided that for purpose of determining when a Participant has incurred a Separation from Service, the phrase “at least fifty percent (50%)” shall be used
in place of “at least eighty percent (80%)” each place it appears in Code Section 414(b) and (c) and the regulations thereunder. 
 (d) Annual Bonus Deferral: See Section 1.01(l)(ii). 
 (e) Base Compensation: The base salary or wage
payable by a Participating Employer to an Eligible Employee for services performed prior to reduction for contributions by the Eligible Employee to this Plan or pre-tax or after-tax contributions by the Eligible Employee to any other employee
benefit plan maintained by a Participating Employer, but exclusive of extraordinary payments such as overtime, bonuses, meal allowances, reimbursed expenses, termination pay, moving pay, commuting expenses, severance pay, non-elective deferred
compensation payments or accruals, stock options or restricted stock, or the value of employer-provided fringe benefits or coverage, all as determined in accordance with such uniform rules, regulations or standards as may be prescribed by the
Administrator. 
  

 2 

 (f) Base Compensation Deferral: See Section 1.01(l)(i). 
 (g) Beneficiary: The person or entity designated by a Participant to be his or her beneficiary for purposes of this Plan. If a beneficiary dies before
receiving all payments due such beneficiary, any remaining payments will be made to the designated beneficiary’s estate unless a contingent beneficiary was designated by the Participant as to such amounts. If there is a contingent beneficiary
payments will be made to the contingent beneficiary and, if such contingent beneficiary dies, any remaining payments will be made to the contingent beneficiary’s estate. If there is no beneficiary designation in force when Plan benefits become
payable upon the death of a Participant, payment shall be made to the Participant’s current spouse, or if the Participant is not married or the spouse is not then living, to the Participant’s estate. Beneficiary designations shall be in
writing, filed with the Administrator, be in such form as the Administrator may prescribe for this purpose, and shall become effective only upon acknowledgement by the Administrator. 
 (h) Board: The Board of Directors of the Company. 
 (i) Code: The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as interpreted by regulations and rulings issued pursuant thereto, all as amended and in effect from time to time. Any reference to a specific provision of the Code shall be deemed to include
reference to any successor provision thereto. 
 (j) Committee: The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Harley-Davidson, Inc.

 (k) Company: Harley-Davidson Motor Company Group, Inc., or any successor thereto. 
 (l) Deferral: An amount credited, in accordance with a Participant’s election, to the Participant’s Account under the Plan in lieu of the
current payment of an equal amount of compensation to the Participant. Deferrals include the following: 
  

	 	(i)	Base Compensation Deferral: A Deferral of all or a portion of a Participant’s Base Compensation in accordance with Section 3.01. 

  

 3 

	 	(ii)	Annual Bonus Deferral: A Deferral of all or a portion of a Participant’s annual bonus award in accordance with Section 3.02. 

  

	 	(iii)	Restricted Stock Deferral: A Deferral of all or a portion of a Participant’s restricted stock or restricted stock unit award under the Incentive Stock Plan, in accordance with
Section 3.03. 

 (m) Disability: The inability of a Participant to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of
a medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, as determined by the Administrator. 
 (n) Eligible Employee: A common law employee of a Participating Employer who has been designated by the Administrator or the Committee as being eligible
to participate in this Plan or who is eligible for the benefits described in Section 3.05. 
 (o) ERISA: The Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as interpreted by regulations and rulings issued pursuant thereto, all as amended and in effect from time to time. Any reference to a specific provision of ERISA shall be deemed to include reference to any successor provision
thereto. 
 (p) Incentive Stock Plan: The Harley-Davidson, Inc. 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, or any successor to such plan. 
 (q) Investment Options: The hypothetical investment options established by the Administrator from time to time (which may, but need not, be based upon
one or more of the investment options available under the Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees of Harley-Davidson). 
 (r) Matching
Contribution Credits: The amounts (if any) credited in accordance with Section 3.04. 
  

 4 

 (s) Participant: An Eligible Employee or a former Eligible Employee with an undistributed Account balance
under the Plan. 
 (t) Participating Employer: The Company and each Affiliate that, with the consent of the Administrator or the Committee,
participates in the Plan for the benefit of one or more Participants. 
 (u) Plan: The Harley-Davidson Management Deferred Compensation Plan,
as amended and in effect from time to time. 
 (v) Separation from Service: The date on which a Participant separates from service (within
the meaning of Code Section 409A) from the Company and all Affiliates. A Separation from Service occurs when the Company and the Participant reasonably anticipate that no further services will be performed by the Participant for the Company and
its Affiliates after that date or that the level of bona fide services the Participant will perform after such date as an employee of the Company or an Affiliate will permanently decrease to no more than 20% of the average level of bona fide
services performed by the Participant (whether as an employee or independent contractor) for the Company and its Affiliates over the immediately preceding 36-month period (or such lesser period of services). The Participant is not considered to have
incurred a Separation from Service if the Participant is absent from active employment due to military leave, sick leave or other bona fide reason if the period of such leave does not exceed the greater of (i) six months, or (ii) the
period during which the Participant’s right to reemployment by the Company or an Affiliate is provided either by statute or by contract; provided that if the leave of absence is due to a medically determinable physical or mental impairment that
can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of not less than six months, where such impairment causes the Participant to be unable to perform the duties of his or her position of employment or any substantially similar
position of employment, the leave may be extended for up to 29 months without causing the Participant to have incurred a Separation from Service. 
 (w) Specified Employee: A Participant who, as of the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service, is treated as a Specified Employee in accordance with Code Section 409A and the rules below. The Plan will identify Specified
Employees each year as of December 31, which shall be the Plan’s Specified Employee identification date. A Participant who is identified as of December 31 as 

  

 5 

 
satisfying the requirements for classification as a Specified Employee will be treated as a Specified Employee for the entire 12 month period that begins on
the April 1 following the December 31 Specified Employee identification date and ends on the following March 31. A Participant satisfies the requirements for classification as a Specified Employee if the Participant, at any time
during the 12-month period ending on the Specified Employee identification date, is (i) an officer of the Company or an Affiliate having annual compensation from the Company and its Affiliates of greater than $130,000, as indexed; provided that
no more than 50 employees, or if lesser, the greater of three or 10 percent of all employees, shall be treated as officers, (ii) a five percent owner of the Company or an Affiliate, or (iii) .a one percent owner of the Company or an
Affiliate having annual compensation from the Company and its Affiliates of greater than $150,000, as indexed, in all cases applied in accordance with the regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A. 

(x) Stock Unit: A hypothetical share of common stock of Harley-Davidson, Inc. 
 (y) Valuation Date: See Section 4.03. 
 Section 1.02. Construction and Applicable Law. 
 (a) Wherever any words are used in the
masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and wherever any words are use in the singular or the plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or the
singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply. Titles of articles and sections are for general information only, and the Plan is not to be construed by reference to such items. 
 (b) This Plan is intended to be a plan of deferred compensation maintained for a select group of management or highly compensated employees as that term
is used in ERISA, and shall be interpreted so as to comply with the applicable requirements thereof. In all other respects, the Plan is to be construed and its validity determined according to the laws of the State of Wisconsin (without reference to
conflict of law principles thereof) to the extent such laws are not preempted by federal law, and any action for benefits under the Plan or to enforce the terms of the Plan shall be heard in the State of Wisconsin by the court with jurisdiction over
the claim. In case any provision of the Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, but the Plan shall, to the extent possible, be construed and enforced as if the
illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted. 
  

 6 

 ARTICLE II. PARTICIPATION 
 Section 2.01. Eligibility. 
 Except for Section 3.05, an employee shall be eligible to participate in the Plan only if the employee is employed by a Participating Employer and if the employee has been designated as an Eligible Employee by
the Administrator or the Committee. When designating an employee as an Eligible Employee, the Administrator or the Committee, in their sole discretion, may designate the employee for participation in the entire Plan or any part thereof. An employee
who satisfies the requirements Section 3.05 is eligible to participate in the Plan with respect to the benefits described in that Section, whether or not the Participant has been designated for participation in the other components of the Plan.

  

 7 

 ARTICLE III. EMPLOYEE DEFERRED COMPENSATION 
 Section 3.01. Deferrals Of Base Compensation. 
 (a) Amount. A Participant may elect, in such form and manner as the Administrator may prescribe, to defer payment of a portion of the Base Compensation that would otherwise be paid to the Participant. A
Participant’s election shall specify either a fixed dollar amount or a percentage (in increments of 1% to a maximum of 85% or such lower percentage specified by the Administrator) of the Participant’s Base Compensation that the Participant
wishes to defer. The minimum annual Base Compensation Deferral is $5,000 (or if the Participant has designated a percentage of Base Compensation to be deferred, the percentage that, when applied to the Participant’s Base Compensation rate at
the time the Deferral election is made, is expected to result in an annual Base Compensation Deferral of at least $5,000). 
 (b) Initial
Deferral Election. In the case of a Participant who has been designated for participation for the first time (and who has not previously been designated as being eligible for participation in another deferred compensation plan that is required
to be aggregated with this Plan for purposes of Code Section 409A), the Participant may submit his or her initial Base Compensation Deferral election within 30 days of being designated for participation in the Plan. If the Participant does so,
the Participant’s validly executed Base Compensation Deferral election shall become effective with respect to Base Compensation attributable to services to be performed subsequent to the date on which the election is filed with the
Administrator, or as soon thereafter as is practicable. Alternatively, the Participant at any time may elect to make Base Compensation Deferrals by submitting a validly executed Base Compensation Deferral election to the Administrator, but the
election shall become effective and shall apply only to Base Compensation attributable to services performed on or after January 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year during which the election is received by the Administrator, or
as soon thereafter as practicable. A Participant’s Base Compensation Deferral election, once effective, shall remain in effect until modified by the Participant in accordance with subsection (c) below or otherwise revoked in accordance
with Plan rules. 
 (c) Revised Deferral Election. Except to the extent that the Administrator is permitted (and elects) to give
earlier effect to a Participant’s revocation or revision to his or her Base Compensation Deferral election in accordance with regulations promulgated by 

  

 8 

 
the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A, a Participant’s Deferral election, once effective with respect to a calendar year, may not
be revoked or modified with respect to Base Compensation for that calendar year. A Participant may modify his or her then current Base Compensation Deferral election by filing a revised Base Compensation Deferral election form, properly completed
and signed, with the Administrator. However, except to the extent that the Administrator is permitted (and elects) to give earlier effect to a Participant’s revised election in accordance with regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the
Treasury under Code Section 409A, the revised election will be effective only with respect to Base Compensation for services performed on or after January 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year during which the revised election
is received by the Administrator, or as soon thereafter as practicable. A Participant’s revised Deferral election, once effective, shall remain in effect until again modified by the Participant under this Section or otherwise revoked in
accordance with Plan rules. 
 (d) Base Compensation Paid Following Year End For the Payroll Period That Includes December 31.
For purposes of applying a Participant’s Base Compensation Deferral election, Base Compensation paid after December 31 of a calendar year that is attributable solely to services performed during the payroll period that includes
December 31, if paid in accordance with the normal timing arrangement by which a Participating Employer compensates employees for services rendered, is treated as Base Compensation for services performed in the subsequent calendar year, even
though part or all of the Participant’s services might have been performed in the prior calendar year. 
 Section 3.02. Deferrals of Annual Bonus Awards. 
 A Participant may irrevocably elect, in such form and manner as the
Administrator may prescribe, to defer payment of a portion of the annual cash bonus that may be awarded and that would otherwise be paid to the Participant with respect to any calendar year. A Participant’s election shall specify either a fixed
dollar amount or a percentage (in increments of 1% to a maximum of 85% or such lesser amount or percentage as may be established by the Administrator, or as may be consistent with Code Section 409A and necessary in order to comply with
applicable withholding obligations, whether attributable to withholdings required under applicable 

  

 9 

 
law or other authorized withholdings) of the Participant’s annual cash bonus that the Participant wishes to defer. In the case of any bonus award that
does not constitute performance-based compensation for purposes of Code Section 409A, a validly executed Annual Bonus Deferral election shall be effective only if the Annual Bonus Deferral election is received by the Administrator prior to the
last day of the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which the Participant performs the services on which the bonus award is based, or by such other time as provided in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury and adopted by
the Administrator. In the case of any bonus award that constitutes performance-based compensation for purposes of Code Section 409A, a validly executed Annual Bonus Deferral election shall become effective with respect to the bonus that may be
awarded to the Participant with respect to a calendar year if the Participant’s Deferral election is received by the Administrator at least six (6) months prior to the end of the (calendar year) performance period for the bonus, or by such
earlier (but not later) date as the Administrator may establish. A Participant’s Annual Bonus Deferral election becomes irrevocable at the end of the permitted election period, and the Participant may not thereafter revoke or modify his or her
election, except as may be permitted by the Administrator in accordance with regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A. A Participant’s election to defer a bonus award shall be effective only for the
performance period to which the election relates, and shall not carry over from year to year. 
 Section 3.03.
Restricted Stock Deferrals. 
 (a) A Participant may elect, in such form and manner as the Administrator may prescribe, to defer payment
of all or any portion of any restricted stock or restricted stock unit award that the Participant receives under the Incentive Stock Plan. A Participant’s election shall specify the whole number of shares or units (up to 100% of such shares or
units, or such lesser number or percentage as may be established by the Administrator or as may be consistent with Code Section 409A and necessary in order to comply with applicable withholding obligations, whether attributable to withholdings
required under applicable law or other authorized withholdings) of the Participant’s award that the Participant wishes to defer; provided that if the Participant specifies a deferral percentage and application of that percentage does not
produce a whole number of shares or units, the number of shares or units to be 

  

 10 

 
deferred shall be increased to the next higher whole number of share or units. In the case of any award that is not performance-based compensation for
purposes of Code Section 409A, a validly executed Restricted Stock Deferral election shall be effective only if the Restricted Stock Deferral election is received by the Administrator prior to the last day of the calendar year preceding the
calendar year in which begins the service period for which the restricted stock or restricted stock units are granted, or by such other time as provided in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury and adopted by the Administrator. In
the case of any award that is performance-based compensation for purposes of Code Section 409A, a validly executed Restricted Stock Deferral election shall become effective with respect to shares or units to be earned by the Participant with
respect to any performance period if the Participant’s Restricted Stock Deferral election is received by the Administrator at least six (6) months prior to the end of such performance period or by such earlier (but not later) date as the
Administrator may establish. A Participant’s Restricted Stock Deferral election becomes irrevocable at the end of the permitted election period, and the Participant may not thereafter revoke or modify his or her election, except as may be
permitted by the Administrator in accordance with regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A. A Participant’s Restricted Stock Deferral election shall be effective only for the particular restricted
stock or restricted stock unit award to which the election relates, and a Participant’s election does not carry over from award to award. 
 (b) A Participant who has made a Restricted Stock Deferral election will be credited under this Plan, on a one-for-one basis, with a number of Stock Units equal to the number of shares of restricted stock or the number of stock units that
originally were granted to the Participant under the Incentive Stock Plan but that the Participant has elected to defer under this Plan as a Restricted Stock Deferral. Any dividends (or similar distribution) that would have been payable on the Stock
Units credited to a Participant’s Account if such Stock Units were actual shares of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock will be credited to the Participant’s Account in the form of additional Stock Units. If any such dividend or other
distribution is not already expressed in the form of shares, it shall be converted, for record keeping purposes, into whole and fractional Stock Units. The conversion shall be accomplished by dividing the amount of the dividend or distribution by
the closing price of a share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock on the payment date for the dividend or distribution. 
  

 11 

 (c) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Participant’s interest in Stock Units
attributable to a Restricted Stock Deferral shall be subject to the same vesting or forfeiture conditions to which the Participant would have been subject if the Participant had received the restricted stock or restricted stock unit award directly
rather than electing to defer delivery of such award. Similarly, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the dividend (or distribution) credits that are made in the form of additional Stock Units in accordance with subsection (b), shall
be subject to the same vesting or forfeiture conditions as apply with respect to the Stock Unit on which the dividend (or distribution) credit is based. 
 (d) In the event of any merger, share exchange, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend or stock split involving Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock, or other event in which Harley-Davidson,
Inc. common stock is subdivided or combined, or a cash dividend is declared the amount of which, on a per share basis, exceeds fifteen percent (15%) of the fair market value of a share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock, at the time the
dividend is declared, or Harley-Davidson, Inc. shall effect any other dividend or other distribution of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock that the Board determines by resolution is extraordinary or special in nature or that is in connection with a
transaction that Harley-Davidson, Inc. characterizes publicly as a recapitalization or reorganization of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock or words of similar import, or any other event shall occur, which, in the judgment of the Committee
necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, the Committee shall make appropriate equitable adjustments with respect to the Stock Units (if any)
credited to the Account of each Participant. The nature of any such adjustment shall be determined by the Committee, in its discretion. 
 (e) Shares of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock distributed in settlement of a Participant’s Stock Units, including the shares distributed in settlement of dividend (or distribution) credits that were made in the form of additional
Stock Units, shall be charged against the pool of available shares under the Incentive Stock Plan.

 Section 3.04. Matching Contribution Credits. 
 The Administrator will also credit to the Account of each Eligible Employee a Matching Contribution Credit (denominated in cash). For each year, the
Matching Contribution Credit will be equal to the difference between (a) the matching contribution that would have been credited to the Eligible Employee’s account under the Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees of Harley-Davidson
(“Retirement Savings Plan”) for the applicable year if (i) the Eligible Employee’s pre-tax contributions to the Retirement Savings Plan had included the Base Compensation Deferrals and Annual Bonus Deferrals made by the Eligible
Employee under this Plan and (ii) the matching contribution under the Retirement Savings Plan were calculated without regard to the maximum compensation limitation of Code Section 401(a)(17), the maximum limit on elective deferrals under
Code Section 402(g), and the maximum annual addition limitation of Code Section 415, and (b) the matching contribution actually credited to the Eligible Employee’s account under the Retirement Savings Plan for the year. This
Matching Contribution Credit will be made as of the last day of the calendar year quarter in which the employer matching contribution is deposited to the Retirement Savings Plan for a year. The Matching Contribution Credit, and the earnings
attributed to it, are subject to the vesting rules of the Retirement Savings Plan so that an Eligible Employee who terminates employment prior to becoming vested in his or her matching contributions under the Retirement Savings Plan shall forfeit
the portion of his or her Account under this Plan that is attributable to Matching Contribution Credits, and earnings thereon. Matching Contribution Credits to this Plan shall not be deemed to be an employer matching contribution to the Retirement
Savings Plan for any nondiscrimination testing purposes. 
 Section 3.05. Employer Retirement Contribution
Restoration Credits. 
 (a) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, a Participant (whether or not designated for participation in
other aspects of the Plan) who is hired on or after August 1, 2006 and who is covered under the Employer Retirement Contribution feature of the Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees of Harley-Davidson or the Buell Motorcycle Company
Retirement Savings Plan (collectively, the “Retirement Savings Plan”) will be eligible to receive an additional credit to his or her Account for each year, in accordance with the rules of this Section, if the Participant’s Employer
Retirement Contribution under the Retirement Savings Plan is limited because of the limitations of Code Section 401(a)(17) or 415. 
  

 13 

 (b) With respect to each Participant whose Employer Retirement Contribution is limited in the manner
described in subsection (a), the Participant shall receive an additional credit under this Plan equal to the difference between (i) the Employer Retirement Contribution that would have been allocated to the Participant for the year under the
Retirement Savings Plan if the Code Section 401(a)(17) and 415 limitations did not apply and if Base Compensation and Annual Bonus Deferrals made by the Participant under this Plan are treated as if they had been paid to the Participant in
cash, and (ii) the Employer Retirement Contribution to which the Participant is actually entitled for such year under the Retirement Savings Plan. 
 (c) A Participant will have a vested and non-forfeitable right to the credits made under this Section, and any deemed investment gains or losses on such credits, if the Participant is vested in the Employer Retirement
Contributions made to his or her account under the Retirement Savings Plan. If the Participant terminates employment prior to obtaining a vested right to the Employer Retirement Contributions under the Retirement Savings Plan, the credits made on
the Participant’s behalf under this Section, together will all deemed investment gains or losses on such credits, shall be forfeited. 
 Section 3.06. Other Deferrals and Credits. 
 The Administrator or the Committee, in their
discretion, may, with respect to any Participant, determine that the Participant is eligible to make Deferrals with respect to additional components of the Participant’s remuneration or receive employer contribution credits in addition to the
credits described herein. In no event, however, shall the Administrator or Committee authorize such additional Deferrals or credits unless the Administrator or Committee has first determined that the Deferrals or credits have been elected or
authorized in a manner that will not result in the imposition of tax under Code Section 409A. 
  

 14 

 Section 3.07. Effect of Unforeseeable Emergency or Hardship. 
 Notwithstanding the general timing rules under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 that govern Participant Deferral elections, if a Participant receives a
distribution on account of (a) “unforeseeable emergency” under Section 5.04 or (b) a distribution on account of “hardship” under the Retirement and Savings Plan or any other qualified plan maintained by the Company
or an Affiliate that includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement under Code Section 401(k) where such plan requires the Participant to cease qualified and non-qualified deferrals as a condition of receiving the distribution, then the
Participant’s then-existing Base Compensation Deferral election, Annual Bonus Deferral election, and any Restricted Stock Deferral election may be terminated (and not merely suspended) to the extent this Administrator so determines. Any
Deferral election made after a termination of a Deferral election due to hardship or unforeseeable emergency will be considered an “initial deferral election” that is subject to the rules of Code Section 409A and the regulations
promulgated thereunder with respect to “initial deferral elections.” 
 Section 3.08. Involuntary
Termination of Deferral Elections. 
 Subject to Code Section 409A, a Participant’s Deferral election will terminate, or
contribution credits to a Participant’s Account will cease, if the Administrator or the Committee determines that the Participant is no longer eligible to participate in the Plan or that revocation of a Participant’s eligibility is
necessary or desirable in order for the Plan to qualify under ERISA as a plan of deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees. 
  

 15 

 ARTICLE IV. ACCOUNTING AND HYPOTHETICAL INVESTMENT ELECTIONS 
 Section 4.01. Investment Options. 
 The Administrator may designate two or more Investment Options. The Administrator’s designation of an Investment Option does not imply any obligation on the part of the Participating Employers to set aside or
otherwise invest funds in the designated Investment Option. The Investment Option serves merely as a device for determining the amount of deemed investment gain or loss to be credited or charged to the Participant’s Account. Further, the
Administrator may at any time modify the roster of available Investment Options, including the elimination of any Investment Option that was previously available under the Plan. 
 Section 4.02. Participant Investment Elections. 
 (a) This Section applies to the deemed investment of a Participant’s Account, other than the portion attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals and
the portion that is credited with interest at the Plan Interest Rate in accordance with Section 4.05. The portion of a Participant’s Account that is attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals is deemed to be invested in Stock Units, and
the Participant is not permitted to exercise investment discretion with respect to this portion. 
 (b) In accordance with uniform rules
prescribed by the Administrator, which shall permit Participants to make investment directions at least annually, each Participant shall designate, in writing or in such other manner as the Administrator may prescribe, how his or her Account (other
than the portion of the Account attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals) shall be deemed to be invested among the Investment Options. A Participant’s investment designation, when effective, shall operate both (i) to reallocate the
Participant’s existing Account balance (other than the portion of the Account attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals) in the percentages specified by the Participant in his or her investment election, and (ii) as a direction with
respect to the deemed investment of future Deferrals or other credits (other than Restricted Stock Deferrals) made while the designation is in effect. If the Participant fails to make a timely and complete investment designation, he or she shall be
deemed to have elected that 100% of his or her Account credited to the default Investment Option specified by the Administrator. 
  

 16 

 (c) When selecting more than one Investment Option, the Participant shall designate, in whole multiples
of 1% or such other percentage determined by the Administrator, the percentage of his or her eligible Account (and of future eligible Deferrals or credits) to be allocated to each Investment Option. 
 (d) A Participant’s investment election or deemed investment election shall become effective on the date established by the Administrator for this
purpose, and shall remain in effect unless and until modified by a subsequent election that becomes effective in accordance with the rules of this Section. 
 (e) Other than a reallocation of a Participant’s eligible Account pursuant to a revised investment election submitted by the Participant, the deemed investment allocation of a Participant will not be adjusted to
reflect differences in the relative investment return realized by the various hypothetical Investment Options that the Participant has designated, i.e., the Participant’s Account will not be periodically “rebalanced” to return the
investment allocation of the Participant’s account to the investment allocation in effect on the effective date of the Participant’s most recent investment election. 
 Section 4.03. Allocation of Deemed Investment Gain or Loss. 
 As of the last day of each calendar quarter, or at such other times as the Administrator may prescribe (each, a “Valuation Date”), and except as
provided in Section 4.05, the Account of each Participant will be credited (or charged) based upon the investment gain (or loss) that the Participant would have realized with respect to his or her Account since the immediately preceding
Valuation Date had the Account been invested in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Participant’s actual or deemed investment election. 
 Section 4.04. Accounts are For Record Keeping Purposes Only. 
 Plan Accounts and the record
keeping procedures described herein serve solely as a device for determining the amount of benefits accumulated by a Participant under the Plan, and shall not constitute or imply an obligation on the part of a Participating Employer to fund such
benefits. In any event, a Participating Employer may, in its discretion, set aside assets and/or contribute to a trust assets equal to part or all of such account balances and invest such assets in life insurance or any other investment deemed

  

 17 

 
appropriate. Any such assets held by a Participating Employer or in a trust shall be and remain the sole property of the Participating Employer or the trust,
as applicable, and a Participant shall have no proprietary rights of any nature whatsoever with respect to such assets. 
 Section 4.05. Pre-2000 Deferrals Under Program A. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section
applies to deferrals made prior to January 1, 2000 that are credited under the Life Insurance Investment Program (sometimes referred to herein as “Program A”) 
 (b) The Life Insurance Investment Program was the original investment program that has been available under the Plan since 1988. Under the Life Insurance
Investment Program or Program A, a Participant’s deferred compensation amounts were credited to a special Account (the “Program A Account”) that is credited with interest at the Plan Interest Rate, and with respect to which a
potential death benefit (described in subsection (d) below) may become payable. The Life Insurance Investment Program is closed to new deferrals effective January 1, 2000. A Participant may elect that the Participant’s Program A
Account shall cease being deemed credited with interest at the Plan Interest Rate and shall thereafter be deemed to be invested in accordance with Sections 4.01 through 4.04 above. 
 (c) For each twelve (12) consecutive month period beginning on September 1 of each year and ending on August 31 of the following year, the
Plan Interest Rate is the Moody’s Long Term Bond Rate in effect on such September 1 (or the last business day immediately preceding such date if September 1 is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday). 
  

 18 

 (d) Upon the death of a Participant prior to termination of employment, and before any benefit payments
have been made or have started, the Company will pay to the designated Beneficiary of a Participant with a Program A, Account, as compensation for services rendered prior to the date of death, a benefit equal to the Participant’s Program A
Account measured as of the last day of the calendar year quarter in which the date of death occurred or, if greater, a death benefit determined as follows:

 (e) Following the Participant’s death, no additional earnings are credited on the portion of any
death benefit amount that is determined as a multiple of a Participant’s Program A deferral commitment. 
 (f) If there is a reduction
in a Program A Account, including a premature distribution from a Program A Account due to hardship, the Administrator will advise the Participant as to the corresponding effect on the Participant’s death benefit. If a Participant has made more
than one deferral commitment under Program A, the Participant’s death benefit will be separately determined for each commitment. A special rule applies, however, for any Participant who was not insurable for a death benefit larger than the
“guaranteed issue” amount available to the Company at standard rates when the Participant, prior to January 1, 2000, completed a deferred compensation agreement calling for a deferral commitment to Program A. In that case, the
affected Participant’s death benefit with respect to such deferral commitment is limited to the greater of (i) the balance in the participant’s Program A Account attributable to such deferral commitment, or (ii) an amount of
death benefit able to be insured by the Company at standard rates at the time the Participant completed his or her deferred compensation agreement providing for such Program A deferral commitment. 
  

 20 

 ARTICLE V. DISTRIBUTION OF ACCOUNTS 
 Section 5.01. Distribution of Account. 
 Except as provided in Section 5.07, distribution of a Participant’s vested Account will be made, in accordance with this Article V, following the date on which the Participant incurs a Separation from
Service. The manner in which a Participant’s Account will be distributed depends on whether the Participant has attained age fifty-five (55) on or prior to the date on which the Participant incurs a Separation from Service. 
 (a) If the Participant incurs a Separation from Service prior to attaining fifty-five (55) years of age, the Participant’s vested Account will
be distributed in a single sum cash payment notwithstanding any contrary distribution election made by the Participant in accordance with Section 5.02 below. The distribution shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Valuation
Date that is coincident with or next follows the Participant’s Separation from Service; provided that if the Participant is a Specified Employee at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service, the distribution shall be made
within thirty (30) days following the Valuation Date that is coincident with or next follows the six (6) month anniversary of the Participant’s Separation from Service. Distribution shall be made in cash, except that with respect to
the portion of the Participant’s Account that is attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals, the Participant shall receive one (1) share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock for each whole Stock Unit credited to the Participant’s
Account, and cash in lieu of any fractional Stock Unit. 
 (b) If the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs on or after the
Participant’s attainment of fifty-five (55) years of age, the Participant’s vested Account balance will be distributed in one (1) to fifteen (15) annual installments, as elected by the Participant in accordance with
Section 5.02 below. The first installment will be paid within thirty (30) days following the Valuation Date that is coincident with or next follows the Participant’s Separation from Service; provided that if the Participant is a
Specified Employee at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service, the distribution shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Valuation Date that is coincident with or next following the six (6) month anniversary
of the Participant’s Separation from Service. Each subsequent installment shall be made in June of each calendar year subsequent to the year the initial installment was paid, 

  

 21 

 
during the installment period. Distributions shall be made in cash, except that with respect to the portion of any installment that is attributable to the
Participant’s Restricted Stock Deferrals, the Participant shall receive one (1) share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock for each whole Stock Unit that is being settled/distributed, and cash in lieu of any fractional Stock Unit. The
cash portion of a Participant’s annual distribution amount shall be determined by dividing (A) the Participant’s aggregate vested balance in the Account (other than the portion attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals) as of the
Valuation Date immediately preceding the installment distribution date by (B) the number of installment payments remaining to be made under the distribution period selected by the Participant. The stock portion of the Participant’s annual
distribution amount shall be determined by dividing (A) the Participant’s vested Stock Units in the Account by (B) the number of installment payments remaining to be made under the distribution period selected by the Participant.
During the installment payment period, the undistributed Account will continue to be credited or charged with deemed investment gains or losses in the same way that deemed gains or losses are credited or charged while the Participant is employed.

 Section 5.02. Distribution Election. 
 (a) Distribution Election. A Participant shall elect the number of annual installments, from one (1) to fifteen (15), over which his or her
Account is to be distributed following the Participant’s Separation from Service. The election shall be in such form as the Administrator shall prescribe. 
 (b) Timing of Distribution Election and Default Distribution Election. An Eligible Employee shall make a distribution election at the same time as the Participant first makes a Deferral election under the Plan.
A Participant who fails to make a distribution election with respect to the Participant’s Account (or any portion thereof) shall be deemed to have elected distribution in ten (10) annual installments. Except as described in
subsection (c) below, a Participant’s election or deemed distribution election is irrevocable. 
 (c) Modification of
Distribution Election. On or before December 31, 2008, a Participant may revise his or her distribution election or deemed distribution election; provided that a revised distribution election made during calendar years 2006, 2007 or 2008

  

 22 

 
(including the election described in Section 5.07) will not be given effect, and the Participant’s immediately prior valid distribution election
(or deemed election) will continue in effect, if the revised election would operate to cause amounts that would otherwise be distributable in the calendar year in which the revised distribution election is made to be deferred for distribution in a
subsequent calendar year, or to cause amounts that would otherwise be distributable in a subsequent calendar year to become distributable in the calendar year in which the revised election is made. On and after January 1, 2009, a Participant
may modify his or her distribution election (or deemed distribution election) only if (i) the Participant’s application to modify the Participant’s distribution election is approved by the Administrator, (ii) the revised
distribution election is submitted to the Administrator at least twelve (12) months prior to the first scheduled payment date under the Participant’s then-current distribution election and the revised election is not given effect for
twelve (12) months after the date on which the revised election is submitted, and (iii) except as permitted under Code Section 409A, payment pursuant to the revised distribution election is deferred for at least five (5) years
from the date payment would otherwise have been made under the Participant’s prior distribution election. For purposes of applying the rules of Code Section 409A, a series of installment payments will be considered a single payment form.

 (d) Effectiveness of Distribution Election. A Participant’s distribution election will be given effect only if the
Participant’s Separation from Service occurs on or after the date on which the Participant attains age fifty-five (55). If the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs prior to attainment of age fifty-five (55), the Participant’s
distribution election will be null and void, and the Participant’s vested Account will be distributed, in accordance with Section 5.01(a), in a single payment. 
 (e) Distribution Election Procedures. A distribution election or modified distribution election shall be deemed made only when it is received and accepted as complete by the Administrator. 
 (f) Acceleration of Payments. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if the Administrator determines that all or any portion of a
Participant’s Account is required to be included in the Participant’s income as a result of a failure to comply with the 

  

 23 

 
requirements of Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the Company or applicable Affiliate shall immediately make distribution
from the Plan to the Participant or Beneficiary, in one lump sum, of the amount (but not exceeding the amount) that is so taxable. 
 Section 5.03. Death Benefit Payments. 
 (a) Death Prior to Separation from Service. Upon the death of a
Participant prior to the Participant’s Separation from Service, the Participant’s Beneficiary will receive a single sum benefit equal to the Participant’s vested undistributed Account balance, the cash portion of which shall be valued
as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately preceding the date of the Participant’s death. The distribution will be made within ninety (90) days following the Participant’s death. The six (6) month payment delay for
Participants who are Specified Employees will not apply. Distribution shall be made in cash, except that with respect to the portion of the Participant’s Account that is attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals, the Beneficiary shall receive
one (1) share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock for each whole Stock Unit credited to the Participant’s Account, and cash in lieu of any fractional Stock Unit. 
 (b) Death After Separation from Service. Upon the death of a Participant following the Participant’s Separation from Service but prior to
completion of distribution of the Participant’s vested Account, the Participant’s Beneficiary will receive a single sum benefit equal to the Participant’s undistributed vested Account balance, the cash portion of which shall be valued
as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately preceding the date of the Participant’s death. The distribution will be made within ninety (90) days following the Participant’s death. The six (6) month payment delay for
Participants who are Specified Employees will not apply. Distribution shall be made in cash, except that with respect to the portion of the Participant’s Account that is attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals, the Beneficiary shall receive
one (1) share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock for each whole Stock Unit credited to the Participant’s Account, and cash in lieu of any fractional Stock Unit. 
  

 24 

 Section 5.04. Hardship Withdrawals. 
 A Participant who has incurred an “unforeseeable emergency” may request, and the Administrator may (but need not) approve a distribution of part
or all of the Participant’s vested Account balance, in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section. An “unforeseeable emergency” means a severe financial hardship to the Participant resulting from an
illness or accident of the Participant, the Participant’s spouse, or the Participant’s dependent (as defined in Code Section 152(a) without regard to Sections 152(b)(1), (b)(2), and (d)(1)(B)), loss of the Participant’s
property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. The amount authorized by the Administrator for distribution with respect to an emergency
may not exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy the emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through
reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets, to the extent that liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship. 
 Section 5.05. Automatic Single Sum Distribution. 
 In the case of any Participant or Beneficiary whose vested Account (when added to the balance of any other account under a non-qualified deferred
compensation arrangement that is required to be aggregated with this Plan under Code Section 409A) has a value equal to or less than the applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B), e.g., $15,500 for 2008, the Account will be
distributed in the form of a single sum payment on the date on which distributions would otherwise commence, and such single sum payment shall be in lieu of any installment distribution period that would otherwise apply. Distribution shall be made
in cash, except that with respect to the portion of the Participant’s Account that is attributable to Restricted Stock Deferrals, the Participant shall receive one (1) share of Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock for each whole Stock Unit
credited to the Participant’s Account, and cash in lieu of any fractional Stock Unit. 
  

 25 

 Section 5.06. Acceleration of Payments Upon a Change of Control. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a change of control event (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) with respect to
Harley-Davidson, Inc, the vested Account of each Participant shall be paid to the Participant or Beneficiary, as applicable, as soon as practicable, but in no event more than 30 days, after the change of control event in a single sum payment,
regardless of any distribution election then in effect. 
 Section 5.07. Election of Distribution at a Stated Date.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary and in accordance with transition rules published by the Internal Revenue Service for purposes of Code Section 409A, on or before December 31, 2008, a Participant who is actively
employed may elect to have the portion of his or her vested Account (exclusive of any portion credited to the Program A Account) as of December 31, 2008, together with deemed gains or losses from December 31, 2008 through the Valuation
Date selected by the Participant, distributed to the Participant in a single sum payment. Distribution will be made within thirty (30) days following the Valuation Date designated by the Participant. The Valuation Date selected by a Participant
must be the last day of a calendar quarter no earlier than June 30, 2009. Because distribution is being elected a stated date unrelated to the Participant’s Separation from Service, the six (6) month payment delay applicable to
Specified Employees for distributions on account of Separation from Service will not apply. A Participant’s election shall not be recognized if the effect of the election would be to defer amounts that would otherwise be distributable in 2008
for distribution into 2009 or subsequent years. 
  

 26 

 ARTICLE VI. GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 Section 6.01. Administration. 
 The Administrator shall administer and interpret the Plan and supervise preparation of Participant elections, forms, and any amendments thereto. The Administrator may, in its discretion, delegate any or all of its
authority and responsibility, and to the extent of any such delegation, any references herein to the Administrator shall be deemed references to such delegee; provide that any such delegee shall not act in any non-ministerial fashion in a matter
affecting the delegee’s own participation or interest in the Plan. Interpretation of the Plan shall be within the sole discretion of the Administrator or the Committee and shall be final and binding upon each Participant and Beneficiary. The
Administrator or the Committee may adopt and modify rules and regulations relating to the Plan as it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. Further, the Administrator shall not act in any non-ministerial fashion in any
matter that affects one or more of the members of the committee that is the Administrator (unless such action affects all Participants uniformly) and any such action will be taken or decision made by the Committee. 
 Section 6.02. Restrictions to Comply with Applicable Law. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Participating Employers shall have no obligation to make any payment under the Plan unless such
payment is in accordance with the terms of the Plan and will comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity. The Administrator or the Committee shall have the right to restrict any
transaction, or impose other rules and requirements, to the extent it deems necessary or desirable in order to comply with any law or exemption. 
 Section 6.03. Claims Procedures. 
 (a) If a Participant or Beneficiary (the “claimant”)
believes that he is entitled to a benefit under the Plan that is not provided, the claimant or his or her legal representative shall file a written claim for such benefit with the Administrator, not later than ninety (90) days after the payment
(or first payment) is made (or should have been made) in accordance with the terms of the Plan or in 

  

 27 

 
accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A. Any such claim shall be filed in writing stating the nature
of the claim, and the facts supporting the claim, the amount claimed and the name and address of the claimant. The Administrator shall review the claim. If the Administrator denies the claim, it shall deliver, within one hundred thirty-five
(135) days of the date the first payment was made (or should have been made) in accordance with the terms of the Plan or in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A, a written notice of
such denial decision. If the claimant’s claim is denied in whole or part, the Administrator shall provide written notice to the claimant of such denial. The written notice shall include the specific reason(s) for the denial; reference to
specific Plan provisions upon which the denial is based; 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 a description
of the Plan’s review procedures (as set forth in subsection (b)) and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an
adverse determination upon review. 
 (b) The claimant has the right to appeal the Administrator’s decision by filing a written appeal
to the Administrator within 180 days after the payment (or first payment) is made (or should have been made) in accordance with the terms of the Plan or in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code
Section 409A. The claimant will have the opportunity, upon request and free of charge, to have reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s appeal. The claimant may submit
written comments, documents, records and other information relating to his or her claim with the appeal. The Administrator will review all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the claimant relating to the claim, regardless
of whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial claim determination. The Administrator shall make a determination on the appeal within 60 days after receiving the claimant’s written appeal; provided that the Administrator
may determine that an additional 60-day extension is necessary due to circumstances beyond the Administrator’s control, in which event the Administrator shall notify the claimant prior to the end of the initial period that an extension is
needed, the reason therefor and the date by which the Administrator expects to render a decision. If the claimant’s appeal is denied in whole or part, the Administrator shall provide written notice to the claimant of such denial. The written
notice shall

include the specific reason(s) for the denial; reference to specific Plan provisions upon which the denial is based; a statement that the claimant is
entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim; and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under
Section 502(a) of ERISA. 
 Section 6.04. Participant Rights Unsecured. 
 (a) Unsecured Claim. The right of a Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary to receive a distribution hereunder shall be an unsecured
claim, and neither the Participant nor any Beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any amount credited to his or her Account or any other specific assets of a Participating Employer. The right of a Participant or Beneficiary to the payment
of benefits under this Plan shall not be assigned, encumbered, or transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The rights of a Participant hereunder are exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the
Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative. 
 (b) Contractual Obligation. The Company may authorize the creation of a
trust or other arrangements to assist it in meeting the obligations created under the Plan. However, any liability to any person with respect to the Plan shall be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created pursuant to the
Plan. No obligation of a Participating Employer shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge of, or other encumbrance on, any property of a Participating Employer. Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to its terms shall create
or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between a Participating Employer and any Participant or Beneficiary, or any other person. 
 Section 6.05. Distributions for Tax Withholding and Payment. 
 (a) Notwithstanding the time or schedule of payments otherwise applicable to the Participant, the Administrator may direct that distribution from a
Participant’s vested Account be made (i) to pay the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax imposed under Code Sections 3101, 3121(a) and 3121(v)(2) with respect to compensation deferred under the Plan, (ii) to pay the
income tax at source on wages imposed under Code Section 3401 or the corresponding withholding provisions of applicable state, local, or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of FICA taxes, and (iii) to pay the additional income tax
at source on wages attributable to the 

  

 29 

 
“pyramiding” of Code Section 3401 wages and taxes; provided that the total amount distributed under this provision must not exceed the
aggregate of the FICA tax and the income tax withholding related to such FICA tax. 
 (b) The amount actually distributed to the Participant
in accordance with the time or schedule of payments applicable to the Participant will be reduced by applicable tax withholding except to the extent such withholding requirements previously were satisfied in accordance with subsection (a)
above. 
 Section 6.06. Amendment or Termination of Plan. 
 (a) There shall be no time limit on the duration of the Plan. 
 (b) The Company, by action of the Human Resources Committee of the Board, may at any time amend the Plan, including but not limited to modifying the terms and conditions applicable to (or otherwise eliminating)
Deferrals or contribution credits to be made on or after the amendment date; provided, however, that no amendment or termination may reduce or eliminate any Account balance accrued to the date of such amendment or termination (except as such Account
balance may be reduced as a result of investment losses allocable to such Account). 
 (c) The Company, by action of the Human Resources
Committee of the Board, may terminate the Plan at any time. Upon termination of the Plan, Accounts may be paid to Participants and Beneficiaries in a single sum payment, without regard to any distribution election then in effect, but only if the
following are met: 
  

	 	(i)	The Plan is terminated within twelve (12) months of a corporate dissolution taxed under Code Section 331, or with the approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C.
§503(b)(1)(A), and the amounts accrued under the Plan but not yet paid are distributed to the Participants or Beneficiaries, as applicable, by the latest of: (A) the last day of the calendar year in which the Plan termination and
liquidation occurs, (B) the last day of the calendar year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, or (C) the last day of the first calendar year in which payment is administratively practicable.

  

 30 

	 	(ii)	The Plan is terminated at any time during the period that begins thirty (30) days prior and ends twelve (12) months following a change of control event (within the meaning
of Code Section 409A), provided that all arrangements required to be aggregated with the Plan (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate are terminated and liquidated with respect to each Participant
that experienced the change of control event, so that all participants under similar arrangements are required to receive all amounts of compensation deferred under the terminated arrangements within twelve (12) months of the date of
termination of the arrangements. 

  

	 	(iii)	 The Plan is terminated at any other time, provided that such termination does not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Company or an
Affiliate. In such event, all amounts accrued under the Plan but not yet paid will be distributed to all Participants or Beneficiaries, as applicable, no earlier than twelve (12) months (and no later than twenty-four (24) months) after the
date of termination. This provision shall not be effective unless all other plans required to be aggregated with this Plan under Code Section 409A are also terminated and liquidated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment that would
otherwise be paid during the twelve (12)-month period beginning on the Plan termination date pursuant to the terms of the Plan shall be paid in accordance with such terms. 

  

 31 

	 	 
In addition, the Company or any Affiliate shall be prohibited from adopting a similar arrangement within three (3) years following the date of the
Plan’s termination, unless any individual who was a Participant under this Plan is excluded from participating thereunder for such three (3) year period. 

 Except as provided in Paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above or as otherwise permitted in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code Section 409A, any action that purports to
terminate the Plan shall instead be construed as an amendment to discontinue further benefit accruals, but the Plan will continue to operate, in accordance with its terms as from time to time amended and in accordance with applicable Participant
elections, with respect to the Participant’s benefit accrued through the date of termination, and in no event shall any such action purporting to terminate the Plan form the basis for accelerating distributions to Participants and
Beneficiaries. 
 Section 6.07. Administrative Expenses. 
 Costs of establishing and administering the Plan will be paid by the Participating Employers. 
 Section 6.08. Successors and Assigns. 
 This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Participating Employers, their successors and assigns and the Participants and their heirs, executors, administrators, and legal representatives.

 Section 6.09. Right of Offset. 
 The Participating Employers shall have the right to offset from the benefits payable hereunder (and at the time such benefit would otherwise be payable) any amount that the Participant owes to the Company or an
Affiliate or other entity in which the Company or an Affiliate maintains an ownership interest. The offset shall be applied so as to include, but shall not be limited to, any 

  

 32 

 
fines, penalties, damages or any other amounts (including attorneys’ fees) imposed on or paid by the Company or Affiliate as a result of any conduct of
the Participant during the Participant’s employment. The Company may effectuate the offset without the consent of the Participant (or the Participant’s spouse or Beneficiary, in the event of the Participant’s death). 
 Section 6.10. Not a Contract of Employment. 
 This Plan may not be construed as giving any person the right to be retained as an employee of the Company or any Affiliate. 
 Section 6.11. Miscellaneous Distribution Rules. 
 (a) Accelerated Distribution Following Section 409A Failure. If an amount under this Plan is required to be included in a Participant’s
income under Code Section 409A prior to the date such amount is actually distributed, the Participant shall receive a distribution, in a lump sum, within ninety (90) days after the date it is finally determined that the Plan fails to meet
the requirements of Code Section 409A. The distribution shall equal the amount required to be included in the Participant’s income as a result of such failure. 
 (b) Permitted Delay in Payment. If a distribution required under the terms of this Plan would jeopardize the ability of the Company or of an Affiliate to continue as a going concern, the Company or the
Affiliate shall not be required to make such distribution. Rather, the distribution shall be delayed until the first date that making the distribution does not jeopardize the ability of the Company or of an Affiliate to continue as a going concern.
Further, if any distribution pursuant to the Plan will violate the terms of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or other Federal securities laws, or any other applicable law, then the distribution shall be delayed until the
earliest date on which making the distribution will not violate such law. 
 (c) Disregard of Six Month Delay. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if at the time of a Participant’s Separation from Service, the stock of Harley-Davidson, Inc. or any other related entity that is considered a “service recipient” within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code is not traded on an established securities market or otherwise, then the provisions of the Plan requiring 

  

 33 

 
that payments for Specified Employees be delayed for six months shall cease to apply. In such event, the payment (if a lump sum) or initial payment (if
installments) shall be made within ninety (90) days following the event triggering the benefit payment(s).
