    Purpose

    

    The

      of Directors of Hooker Furniture Corporation (the “Company”) has determined that

      Corporation Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (the “Plan”) will assist it in
      attracting and retaining those employees whose judgment, abilities and
      experience will contribute to the Company’s continued progress. The Plan is
      intended to be unfunded and maintained primarily for the purpose of providing
      deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated
      employees, as described under sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of
      the
      Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The Plan
      shall be administered and construed in a manner that is consistent with this
      intent.

    Notwithstanding
      the forgoing, the Board may in its discretion designate that a Participant
      will
      be subject to a vesting schedule different from the schedule contained in this
      Section 3.4. Any such designation of an alternative vesting schedule, and the
      Participant or Participants to which the alternative vesting schedule applies,
      shall be described in the attached Appendix B.

    

    3.5. Time
      of
      Payment. The vested portion of the Participant’s Supplemental Benefit, if any,
      shall begin to be paid on the first day of the month following the Participant’s
      Separation from Service or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable,
      but
      no later than the fifteenth (15th)
      day of
      such month. 

    

    3.6. Pre-Retirement
      Survivor Benefit. If a Participant dies while employed by the Company and before
      commencement of payment of his vested Supplemental Benefit, the Participant’s
      Beneficiary shall be entitled to a death benefit equal to Participant’s vested
      Supplemental Benefit and payable in accordance with Sections 3.1, 3.2, or 3.3,
      and as applicable, 3.4.

    3.7. Post-Retirement
      Survivor Benefit. If a Participant dies after commencement of payment of his
      vested Supplemental Benefit, then the balance of any remaining payment of his
      vested Supplemental Benefit shall continue to be paid to his Beneficiary over
      the remaining period of such payments.

    

    3.8. Designation
      of Beneficiary. A Participant may, at any time and in a manner determined by
      the
      Administrative Committee, designate a beneficiary and one or more contingent
      beneficiaries (which may include the Participant’s estate) to receive any
      Supplemental Benefit which may be payable under this Plan upon his death. If
      the
      Participant does not designate a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary, or
      if
      the beneficiary and the contingent beneficiaries do not survive the Participant,
      such Supplemental Benefit shall be paid to the Participant’s estate. A
      Participant may revoke or change any designation made under this Section 3.7
      in
      a time and manner determined by the Administrative Committee.

    

    3.9. Change
      in
      Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each Participant who has
      not yet begun to receive payment of his Supplemental Benefit shall become fully
      vested in his Supplemental Benefit, and the present value of each such
      Participant’s Supplemental Benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum to the
      Participant (or his Beneficiary in the event of his death) within no later
      than
      fifteen (15) days following the Change in Control. In addition, the present
      value of the unpaid balance of any Participant’s vested Supplemental Benefit for
      which payment commenced prior to the Change in Control shall be paid in a single
      lump sum to such Participant or his Beneficiary, as applicable, within no later
      than fifteen (15) days following the Change in Control. For purposes of this
      Section 3.9, the present value of a Participant’s Supplemental Benefit shall be
      determined by applying a discount rate equal to the discount rate required
      to be
      applied for purposes of Code Section 280G and applicable regulations thereunder,
      as in effect on the date of the Change in Control.

     

    3.10. Special
      Payment Delay. In the event that (i) a Participant is a Transferred Participant
      and (ii) such Transferred Participant incurs a Separation from Service on or
      before December 31, 2008, the payment of the Participant’s Supplemental Benefit
      shall commence on the six-month anniversary of the date on which his Salary
      Continuation Agreement was amended.

     

    3.11. Payment
      Delay for Specified Employees. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the
      contrary, if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of
      Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and Treasury Regulations and other guidance
      thereunder, no payment may be made by reason of the Participant’s Separation
      from Service before the date which is 6 months after the date of such
      Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of the
      Participant’s death). Upon the expiration of the six-month deferral period
      referred to in the preceding sentence or the Participant’s death, all payments
      deferred pursuant to this Section 3.11 shall be paid to the Participant (or
      the
      Participant’s Beneficiary in the event of the Participant’s death) in a lump
      sum. No interest shall be paid on the amounts for which payment is delayed
      pursuant to this Section 3.11. The determination of whether a Participant is
      a
“specified employee” for this purpose shall be made in accordance with Section
      409A and Treasury Regulations thereunder and in accordance with guidelines
      adopted by the Company for such purposes.

    Article
      IV

    Guarantees

    

    The
      Company has only a contractual obligation to make payments of the benefits
      described in Article III. All benefits are to be satisfied solely out of the
      general corporate assets of the Company, which shall remain subject to the
      claims of its creditors. No assets of the Company will be segregated or
      committed to the satisfaction of its obligations to any Participant or
      Beneficiary under this Plan. If the Company, in its sole discretion, elects
      to
      purchase life insurance on the life of a Participant in connection with the
      Plan, the Participant must submit to a physical examination, if required by
      the
      insurer, and otherwise cooperate in the issuance of such policy or his rights
      under the Plan will be forfeited.

      of Employment
      or
      Participation

    

    5.1. The
      Plan
      does not in any way limit the right of the Company or an Affiliate at any time
      and for any reason to terminate the Participant’s employment or terminate such
      Participant’s status as an Eligible Employee, or limit the right of the Board
      pursuant to Article II to declare that a Participant shall no longer be a
      Participant. In no event shall the Plan, by its terms or by implication,
      constitute an employment contract of any nature whatsoever between the Company
      or an Affiliate and a Participant.

    

    5.2. A
      Participant who ceases to be an Eligible Employee, whose employment with the
      Company or an Affiliate is terminated or whom the Board declares is no longer
      a
      Participant shall immediately cease to be a Participant under this Plan and
      shall be entitled to receive the vested portion of his accrued Supplemental
      Benefit, if any, subject to the provisions of Article III. A Participant on
      an

      amend or modify this Plan, wholly or partially, at any time and from time to
      time.

      or attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge
      any
      right to a benefit hereunder, then such right or benefit, in the discretion
      of
      the Board, shall cease and terminate, and, in such event, the Board may hold
      or
      apply the same or any part thereof for the benefit of such Participant or
      Beneficiary, his or her spouse, children, or other dependents, or any of them,
      in such manner and in such portion as the Board may deem
      proper.

      participation, contributions, benefits or other aspects of the operation of
      the
      Plan shall be made in writing to the Administrative Committee. 

     

    9.2. If
      the
      claim is denied in whole or in part, the claimant shall be furnished written
      notice of the denial of the claim within ninety (90) days after the
      Administrative Committee’s receipt of the claim, or within one hundred eighty
      (180) days after such receipt if special circumstances require an extension
      of
      time. If special circumstances require an extension of time, the claimant shall
      be furnished written notice prior to the termination of the initial ninety
      (90)
      day period which explains the special circumstances requiring an extension
      of
      time and the day by which the Administrative Committee expects to render the
      benefit determination. A written notice of denial of the claim shall contain
      the
      following information:

    

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              Specific

              Specific
                reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is
                based,

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (c)

            	
              A
                description of any additional material or information necessary for
                the
                claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why the material
                or
                information is necessary, and

                a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following a denial upon
                review of the claim.

            

    

    

    9.3. The
      claimant may appeal the denial of a claim by submitting a written request for
      review to the Board, as the case may be, within sixty (60) days following the
      date the claimant received written notice of the denial of his or her claim.
      The
      Board shall afford the claimant a full and fair review of the decision denying
      the claim that takes into account all comments, documents, records and other
      information submitted by the claimant relating to the claim, without regard
      to
      whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial
      determination, and, if so requested, shall:

    

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              provide,
                upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies
                of all

                the claimant to submit written comments, documents, records and other
                information relating to the claim. 

            

    

    

      9.4. The
      decision on review by the Board shall be in writing and shall be issued within
      sixty (60) days following receipt of the request for review. The period for
      decision may be extended to a date not later than one hundred twenty (120)
      days
      after such receipt if the Board determines that special circumstances require
      extension. If special circumstances require an extension of time, the claimant
      shall be furnished written notice prior to the termination of the initial sixty
      (60) day period which explains the special circumstances requiring an extension
      of time and the date by which the Board expects to render its decision on
      review. The decision on review shall include:

              a
                statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request

      as may be necessary to carry out the purposes hereof. Except as specifically
      provided in Article IX, the Administrative Committee’s interpretation and

      conclusive.

    

    10.2. The
      Company shall indemnify and save harmless each member of the Administrative
      Committee against any and all expenses and liabilities arising out of his
      membership on such Administrative Committee, excepting only expenses and
      liabilities arising out of his own willful misconduct. Expenses against which
      a
      member of the Administrative Committee shall be indemnified hereunder shall
      include without limitation, the amount of any settlement or judgment, costs,
      counsel fees, and related charges reasonably incurred in connection with a
      claim
      asserted, or a proceeding brought or settlement thereof. The foregoing right
      of
      indemnification shall be in addition to any other rights to which any such
      member may be entitled.

    

    10.3. In
      addition to the powers hereinabove specified, the Administrative Committee

      time
      to time payable to Participants and their Beneficiaries under the Plan, to
      authorize all disbursements for such purposes, and to determine whether a
      Participant is entitled to a benefit under Article III.

    10.4. To
      enable
      the Administrative Committee to perform its functions, the Company shall supply
      full and timely information to the Administrative Committee on all matters
      relating to the Earnings of all Participants, their retirement, death or other
      cause for termination of employment, and such other pertinent facts as the
      Committee may require.

    

    Article

    Miscellaneous

    

    11.1. The
      Plan
      shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns (subject to
      the

      their respective assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.

    

    11.2. To
      the
      extent not preempted by federal law, the Plan shall be governed and construed

      pronouns wherever used shall include feminine pronouns and the use of the

      requirements or any similar provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
      Company may, in its discretion, pay withholding taxes from other amounts payable
      by the Company to a Participant or Beneficiary to the extent such withholding
      taxes are due prior to the time that benefits are payable under the
      Plan.

    

    11.5 It
      is
      intended that this Plan comply with Section 409A and any regulations, guidance
      and transition rules issued thereunder, and the Plan shall be interpreted and
      operated consistently with that intent. If the Administrative Committee shall
      determine that any provisions of this Plan do not comply with the requirements
      of Section 409A, the Administrative Committee shall have the authority to amend
      the Plan to the extent necessary (including retroactively) in order to preserve
      compliance with said Section 409A. The Administrative Committee shall also
      have
      the express discretionary authority to take such other actions as may be
      permissible to correct any failures to comply with Section 409A.
