If during the calendar year for which the Target Bonus is determined the Executive has not been assigned to an executive grade level of E1, E2, E3, E4 or E5, the Executive's grade level for purposes of this definition shall be the grade level between E1 and E5 that the Compensation Committee of the Board has determined is equivalent to the Executive's actual grade level.

On January 26, 2009 Executive A received a stock option grant that is scheduled to vest in three equal installments, on January 1, 2010, January 1, 2011 and January 1, 2012, respectively.  Executive A incurs a Severance on December 20, 2009. On the Severance Date the stock option installments scheduled to vest on January 1, 2010 and January 1, 2011 would vest but the installment scheduled to vest on January 1, 2012 (more than 18 months after the Severance Date) would not vest under the Vesting Provisions.

	Any further dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with the Agreement which remains after the final decision of the Employer Board as contemplated by Section 4.4 shall be settled exclusively by arbitration, conducted before a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association's National Rules for Resolution of Employment Disputes as then in effect.  Such arbitration shall be conducted in the metropolitan area closest to where the Executive lives. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction over such metropolitan area; provided however, that the Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his or her right to be paid or to receive benefits hereunder during the pendency of any dispute or controversy under or in connection with this Agreement. The fees and expenses of the arbitrator and the arbitration shall be borne by the Employer.

If, for any legal reason, a controversy arising from or concerning the interpretation or application of this Agreement cannot be arbitrated as provided above, the parties agree that any civil action shall be brought in United States District Court in the metropolitan area closest to where the Executive lives or, only if there is no basis for federal jurisdiction, in state court closest to where the Executive lives. The parties further agree that any such civil action shall be tried to the court, sitting without a jury. The parties knowingly and voluntarily waive trial by jury.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time a dispute or controversy arises the Executive is working outside of the United States, and if at such time the Executive maintains a residence in the United States, the dispute or controversy will be resolved (i) by arbitration in the metropolitan area closest to the Executive's residence in the United States or (ii) by litigation in the United States District Court in the metropolitan area closest to the Executive's residence in the United States or, only if there is no basis for federal jurisdiction, in state court closest to the Executive's residence in the United States. If the Executive does not maintain a United States residence at such time, the dispute or controversy will be subject to arbitration in Ann Arbor, Michigan or to litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan (or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Michigan).

	4.6
	The Employer shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in seeking in good faith to obtain or enforce any benefit or right provided by the Agreement.

The Employer shall not be obligated to pay legal fees and expenses incurred by any person other than the Executive or the Executive's successor in interest hereunder. However, the Employer shall be obligated to pay legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive on behalf of the Executive's dependents and legal fees and expenses incurred by the estate of the Executive on behalf of the Executive or the Executive's dependents.

		
	4.7
	The Employer agrees that, if the Executive incurs a Severance, the Executive is not required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the Executive hereunder.

5.    NOTICE OF TERMINATION. 
		
	5.1
	Any Involuntary Termination shall be communicated by written notice from the Employer to the Executive in accordance with Section 7.9, and shall follow the applicable procedures set forth in this Section 5.

The Executive agrees that, during the Executive's employment and at all times thereafter during the Severance Period, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity (whether as a sole proprietor, owner, employer, partner, investor, shareholder, member, employee, consultant, or otherwise), solicit, induce, or attempt to persuade any employee or agent of the Employer or any of its affiliates to leave such employment or other relationship or association with the Employer or any such affiliate in order to accept employment with or render services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity unaffiliated with the Employer. 

10

 

		
	6.3
	Non-Disparagement.  The Executive agrees, during the Executive's employment and at all times thereafter, not to make, participate in the making of, or encourage any other person to make, any statements, written or oral, that criticizes or disparages or damages the reputation, goodwill, or standing in the community of the Employer, the Company or any Affiliate, or their respective employees, officers, directors, products or services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit statements that are protected by applicable law or otherwise prohibit the Executive from giving truthful testimony or evidence to a governmental entity, or if properly subpoenaed or otherwise required to do so under applicable law.

	6.5
	Reasonableness.

	6.6
	Equitable Relief. 

(a)     Executive hereby acknowledges that, by virtue of his or her unique relationship with the Employer and/or its affiliates, the Executive has acquired and had access to, or will acquire and have access to, Confidential Information and will also develop a unique and comprehensive familiarity with the Employer and its Business and Affiliates, which the Executive would not have otherwise had but for his or her employment, and which the Executive acknowledges are valuable assets of the Employer and its affiliates.  Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Employer and its affiliates, that the Employer would not have entered into the Agreement in the absence of such restrictions, and that any violation of any provision of this Section 6 will result in immediate and irreparable injury to Employer and its affiliates for which damages cannot be readily calculated and for which damages are an inadequate remedy.  By entering into the Agreement, the Executive represents that his or her experience and capabilities are such that the restrictions contained in this Section 6 will not unreasonably restrict his or her post-employment opportunities. The Executive further represents and acknowledges that (i) he or she has been advised by Employer to consult his or her own legal counsel in respect of this Agreement, and (ii) that he or she has had full opportunity, prior to agreeing to enter into the Agreement, to review thoroughly this Agreement with his or her counsel.

11

 
(b)     Executive agrees that Employer and its affiliates shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent any actual or threatened breach or any continuing breach by the Executive of the covenants contained in this Section 6, without the necessity of proving actual damages, as well as an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from any violation of this Section 6, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Employer may be entitled.  The Executive further agrees to reimburse the Employer and its affiliates for all costs and expenditures, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, incurred by any of them in connection with the successful enforcement of any of their rights under Section 6.  In the event that any of the provisions of this Section 6 should ever be adjudicated by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to exceed the time, geographic, service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction or to otherwise be unreasonable or unenforceable, then such provisions shall be deemed modified or limited in such jurisdiction so that, as modified or limited, such provisions may be enforced to the maximum time, geographic, service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law. 
(c)    The running of the time periods set forth in this Section 6 shall be tolled during the period of any breach by the Executive of this Section 6 and during the period of any dispute involving the breach, applicability, scope, duration or other aspect of any of the provisions of this Section 6 whether or not any party has filed a lawsuit.  The provisions of this Section 6 shall remain in full force and effect for the duration of such breach or dispute, until the breach or dispute is fully and finally resolved by either (i) the written agreement of the parties to each such dispute or (ii) a final, non-appealable order from a court of competent jurisdiction, at which point the time-period of such provisions shall again commence running, unless such agreement or order (as applicable) expressly provides otherwise.
(d)     Executive irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees that any suit, action or other legal proceeding arising out of this Section 6, including without limitation, any action commenced by the Employer or the Company for preliminary and permanent injunctive relief or other equitable relief, may be brought in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Michigan, (ii) consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) waives any objection which Executive may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court. Executive also irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the service of any process, pleadings, notices or other papers in a manner permitted by the notice provisions of Section 7.9. 
		
	6.7
	Survival of Provisions.  The obligations contained in this Section shall survive the termination of Executive's employment with Employer and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.

12

7.    GENERAL PROVISIONS. 
		
	7.1
	Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of the Executive under the Agreement shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective; and no right or interest of the Executive under the Agreement shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Executive. When a payment is due under the Agreement to an Executive who is unable to care for his or her affairs, payment may be made directly to the Executive's legal guardian or personal representative.

		
	7.2
	If the Employer, the Company or any Affiliate is obligated pursuant to applicable law or by virtue of being a party to a contract (other than this Agreement) to pay severance pay, a termination indemnity, notice pay or the like or if the Employer, the Company or any Affiliate is obligated by law to provide advance notice of separation ("Notice Period"), then any Severance Payment hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any such severance pay, termination indemnity, notice pay or the like, as applicable, and by the amount of any compensation received during any Notice Period.

		
	7.3
	Neither the entering into of this Agreement, nor the payment of any benefits hereunder shall be construed as giving the Executive, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Employer, and the Executive shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Agreement had never been executed.

		
	7.4
	If any provision of the Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and the Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

		
	7.5
	The Company, the Employer and the Executive intend for the Agreement to comply with the requirements of Code section 409A such that none of the payments hereunder will result in compensation to be includible in the Executive's income pursuant to Code section 409A(a)(1)(A). The Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent.

The payments to Executive pursuant to this Agreement are also intended to be exempt from Code section 409A to the maximum extent possible, under either the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) or as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4), and for such purpose, any installment paid to Executive under this Agreement shall be considered a separate payment.    

If any provision of the Agreement would cause compensation to be includible in the Executive's income pursuant to Code section 409A(a)(1)(A), such provision shall be void, and the Employer shall have the unilateral right to amend the Agreement retroactively for compliance with Code section 409A in such a way as to achieve substantially similar economic results without causing such inclusion. Any such amendment shall be binding on the Executive.  In the event the Agreement does not comply with the requirements of Code section 409A, the Executive will be solely responsible for any adverse tax consequences to the Executive.

13

To the extent any amounts under this Agreement are payable by reference to Executive's Severance Date or “termination of employment” such terms and similar terms shall be deemed to refer to Executive's “separation from service,” within the meaning of Code section 409A.

Any reimbursement payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be conditioned on the submission by Executive of all documentation reasonably required by Employer, and shall be paid to Executive within 30 days following receipt of such documentation, but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurred the reimbursable expense.  Any amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit provided, during a calendar year shall not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit to be provided, during any other calendar year.  The right to any reimbursement or in-kind benefit pursuant to this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

		
	7.6
	The Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Employer and its successors and assigns, and by the Executive and by the personal and legal representatives, executors, administra-tors, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees of the Executive. If the Executive shall die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the death of the Executive) if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Agreement to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the Executive's estate. 

		
	7.7
	The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Agreement, and shall not be employed in the construction of the Agreement.

		
	7.8
	The Agreement shall not be funded. The Executive shall not have any right to, or interest in, any assets of the Employer which may be applied by the Employer to the payment of benefits or other rights under the Agreement.

		
	7.9
	All notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement (i) shall be in writing, (ii) shall be hand delivered, sent by overnight courier or by United States registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, addressed, in the case of the Employer, to the principal office of the Employer, attention President, and in the case of the Company, to 2211 Old Earhart Road, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 48105, attention President and General Counsel, and in the case of the Executive, to the last known address of the Executive, and (iii) shall be effective only upon actual receipt.

		
	7.10
	The Agreement shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof) to the extent not preempted by federal law, which shall otherwise control.

Exhibit 10.11

NON-CHANGE IN CONTROL SEVERANCE POLICY
(CON-WAY INC. AND CON-WAY ENTERPRISE SERVICES INC.)
ADOPTED AS OF DECEMBER 18, 2009
AMENDED AS OF SEPTEMBER 21, 2012
This Non-Change in Control Severance Policy (“Policy”) is established and maintained by Con-way Inc. (the “Company”) and by Con-way Enterprise Services, Inc. (“CES”), an affiliate of the Company (the Company and CES each being a “Participating Employer” and collectively the “Participating Employers”).  Capitalized terms used in this Policy without definition have the meanings shown on Attachment 1. 
This Policy sets forth the terms and conditions under which an executive in executive grade level E1 or E2 employed by a Participating Employer (each an “Executive” and collectively the “Executives”) is eligible to receive certain severance payments and benefits from his or her Employer (as defined herein) in the event of the Executive's termination of employment in certain circumstances.  Except as provided in the following paragraph, this Policy supersedes (i) all prior severance agreements between an Executive and a Participating Employer and (ii) all prior severance plans, policies and other severance arrangements of any Participating Employer applicable to the Executive.
This Policy is not intended to and does not address severance payments and benefits that may be made available to Executives whose employment is terminated in connection with change in control transactions.  Accordingly, this Policy does not supersede or otherwise affect any severance agreements, plans, policies or arrangements, whether now in effect or hereafter entered into or established by any Participating Employer, that provide for severance payments and benefits to be made available to Executives whose employment is terminated in connection with change in control transactions (as the term “change in control” is defined in such agreements, plans, policies or arrangements).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Policy does not supersede or otherwise affect a Severance Agreement (Change in Control), as may be amended, entered into by an Executive and his or her Employer.  In no event and under no circumstances shall any Executive be entitled to receive severance payments and benefits both under any such change in control agreement, plan, policy or arrangement and also under this Policy.  
		
	1.
	Qualifying Termination of Employment.   An Executive will be eligible to receive the severance payments and benefits described in this Policy only if the Executive incurs a Severance. 

		
	2.
	Severance Payments and Benefits.  Subject to the other provisions of this Policy, if an Executive incurs a Severance, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the following from the Employer:

		
	(a)
	Severance Payment.  

The Severance Payment is in lieu of any severance payments or benefits to which the Executive may otherwise be entitled under any other severance plan or agreement of any Participating Employer or Affiliate, except as otherwise provided in the third paragraph of this Policy.
		
	(b)
	Annual Bonus Amount, provided that the Executive has been employed for at least one full calendar quarter during the year in which the Severance occurs.

1

		
	(c)
	 Health Benefits.

		
	(d)
	 Outplacement Services.

In addition, if an Executive incurs a Severance the Executive's unvested Qualifying Long-Term Incentive Awards shall vest in accordance with and to the extent provided in the Vesting Provisions. Nothing in this Policy shall modify or otherwise affect the vesting provisions or other terms of any of Executive's long-term incentive awards which are not Qualifying Long-Term Incentive Awards.   
		
	3.
	Waiver and Release; Agreement to Comply with Covenants.   An Executive shall not be eligible to receive a Severance Payment, Annual Bonus Amount, Health Benefits or Outplacement Services under the Policy unless the Executive (or, in the event of the death of the Executive, the executor, personal representative or administrator of the Executive's estate) first executes and delivers to the Company the Waiver and Release of Claims and Restrictive Covenant Agreement substantially in the form of Attachment 2 hereto within the timeframe specified in the written release (but in no event later than 45 days following the Severance Date) and such Waiver and Release of Claims and Restrictive Covenant Agreement becomes effective pursuant to its terms prior to the time that the Executive (or the Executive's estate, as applicable) is to receive all or any part of the Severance Payment, the Annual Bonus Amount, Health Benefits or Outplacement Services. 

 
		
	4.
	Timing of Payments; Taxes.  The Severance Payment and any Health Benefits that are payable in cash shall be payable to the Executive in a lump sum payment within sixty days following the Severance Date.  The Annual Bonus Amount shall be paid no later than March 15th of the year immediately following the year in which the Severance Date occurs.    The Executive shall be liable for the payment of all Taxes.  The Employer shall be entitled to withhold from amounts to be paid to the Executive hereunder any Taxes which it is from time to time required to withhold.

 
		
	5.
	Disputes and Controversies. In the event that the Executive or a dependent of the Executive believes that he or she is not receiving the full amounts to which he or she is entitled under the Policy, such person may make a claim to the Employer Board and the claims procedure set forth in Section A of the Administrative Appendix to the Con-way Inc. 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives and Key Employees, as amended and restated in December 2008 and as subsequently amended from time to time (“DCP”), shall apply with the Employer Board treated as the Committee.  Although claims for amounts under this Policy are governed by claims procedures under the DCP that also apply to ERISA-covered claims, neither this Policy nor any amounts payable hereunder are, or are intended to be, governed by ERISA.

Any further dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with the Policy which remains after the final decision of the Employer Board shall be settled exclusively by arbitration, conducted before a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association's National Rules for Resolution of Employment Disputes as then in effect.  Such arbitration shall be conducted in the metropolitan area closest to where the Executive lives. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction over such metropolitan area; provided however, that the Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his/her right to be paid or to receive benefits hereunder during the pendency of any dispute or controversy under or in connection with this Policy. The fees and expenses of the arbitrator and the arbitration shall be borne by the Employer.

2

If, for any legal reason, a controversy arising from or concerning the interpretation or application of this Policy cannot be arbitrated as provided above, the parties agree that any civil action shall be brought in United States District Court in the metropolitan area closest to where the Executive lives or, only if there is no basis for federal jurisdiction, in state court closest to where the Executive lives. The parties further agree that any such civil action shall be tried to the court, sitting without a jury. The parties knowingly and voluntarily waive trial by jury.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time a dispute or controversy arises the Executive is working outside of the United States, and if at such time the Executive maintains a residence in the United States, the dispute or controversy will be resolved (i) by arbitration in the metropolitan area closest to the Executive's residence in the United States or (ii) by litigation in the United States District Court in the metropolitan area closest to the Executive's residence in the United States or, only if there is no basis for federal jurisdiction, in state court closest to the Executive's residence in the United States. If the Executive does not maintain a United States residence at such time, the dispute or controversy will be subject to arbitration in Ann Arbor, Michigan or to litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan (or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Michigan).
		
	6.
	Fees and Expenses; Mitigation.  The Employer shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in seeking in good faith to obtain or enforce any benefit or right provided by the Policy. Such payment shall be made within five (5) busi-ness days after delivery of the Executive's written requests for payment accompanied with such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Employer reasonably may require. The Employer shall not be obligated to pay legal fees and expenses incurred by any person other than the Executive or the Executive's successor in interest hereunder. However, the Employer shall be obligated to pay legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive on behalf of the Executive's dependents and legal fees and expenses incurred by the estate of the Executive on behalf of the Executive or the Executive's dependents.

The Employer agrees that, if the Executive incurs a Severance, the Executive is not required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the Executive hereunder. Further, the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in the Policy shall not be reduced (except as provided in the definition of Health Benefits) by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to the Employer, or otherwise.
7.    NOTICE OF TERMINATION. 
		
	(a) 
	Any Involuntary Termination shall be communicated by written notice from the Employer to the Executive in accordance with Section 8(i), and shall follow the applicable procedures set forth in this Section 7. A notice of termination for Cause shall include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Employer Board at a meeting of the Employer Board which was called and held for the purpose of considering such termination (after reasonable notice to the Executive of no less than thirty (30) days and an opportunity for the Executive, together with the Executive's counsel, to be heard before the Employer Board and to have no less than thirty (30) days to substantially cure the acts or omissions that are the basis for Executive's termination of employment) finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Employer Board, the Executive was guilty of conduct set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of the definition of Cause herein, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

3

		
	(b) 
	The notice of termination from the Employer shall specify the date of termination, which shall not be less than ten (10) days from the date such notice of termination is given. Once the Employer has specified a date of termination in a notice of termination, the date of termination may not be changed except by mutual consent of the Employer and the Executive. 

		
	(c)
	Any Termination for Good Reason shall be communicated by written notice from the Executive to the Employer in accordance with Section 8(i) of this Policy. A notice of Termination for Good Reason shall indicate the specific provision in the Policy relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for Termination for Good Reason. The notice of termination shall specify the termination date, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days, respectively, from the date such notice is given and which shall constitute the “Severance Date” for purposes of the Policy. Once the Executive has specified a date of termination in a notice of termination, the date of termination may not be changed except by mutual consent of the Employer and the Executive.

8.    General Provisions
		
	(a)
	This Policy may be terminated or amended at any time in the sole discretion of the Company; provided that such action shall not affect the rights under the Policy of an Executive who incurs a Severance prior to such action. 

The Company, the Employer and the Executive intend for the payments to Executive pursuant to this Policy to be exempt from Code section 409A to the maximum extent possible, under either the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) or as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4), and for this purpose, any installment paid to Executive under this Policy shall be considered a separate payment.  The Policy shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent.  
If at any time any provision of the Policy would cause compensation to be includible in an Executive's income pursuant to Code section 409A(a)(1)(A), such provision shall be void, and the Executive's Employer shall have the unilateral right to amend the Policy retroactively for compliance with Code section 409A in such a way as to achieve substantially similar economic results without causing such inclusion. Any such amendment shall be binding on the Executive.  In the event the Policy does not comply with the requirements of Code section 409A, the Executive will be solely responsible for any adverse tax consequences to the Executive.
To the extent any amounts under this Policy are payable by reference to Executive's Severance Date or “termination of employment” such terms and similar terms shall be deemed to refer to Executive's “separation from service,” within the meaning of Code section 409A.
Any reimbursement payable to Executive pursuant to this Policy shall be conditioned on the submission by Executive of all documentation reasonably required by Employer, and shall be paid to Executive within 30 days following receipt of such documentation, but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurred the reimbursable expense.  Any amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit provided, during a calendar year shall not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit to be provided, during any other calendar year.  The right to any reimbursement or in-kind benefit pursuant to this Policy shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. 

4

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Policy, to the extent any part of the Severance Payment, the Annual Bonus Amount, Health Benefits or Outplacement Services constitutes payments of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Code section 409A, then (A) each such payment which is conditioned upon Executive's execution of the Waiver and Release of Claims and Restrictive Covenant Agreement and which is to be paid during a designated period that begins in a first taxable year and ends in a second taxable year shall be paid in the second taxable year and (B) if the Executive is a Specified Employee as of the Severance Date, each such payment that would have been paid prior to the six-month anniversary of the Severance Date shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day after the Severance Date and (ii) the date of the Executive's death.
		
	(b)
	Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of the Executive under the Policy shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective; and no right or interest of the Executive under the Policy shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Executive. When a payment is due under the Policy to an Executive who is unable to care for his or her affairs, payment may be made directly to the Executive's legal guardian or personal representative.

		
	(c)
	If the Employer, the Company or any Affiliate is obligated pursuant to applicable law or by virtue of being a party to a contract (other than this Policy) to pay severance pay, a termination indemnity, notice pay or the like to an Executive or if the Employer, the Company or any Affiliate is obligated by law to provide advance notice of separation ("Notice Period") to an Executive, then any Severance Payment made to the Executive hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any such severance pay, termination indemnity, notice pay or the like, as applicable, and by the amount of any compensation received during any Notice Period.

		
	(d)
	Neither the entering into of this Policy, nor the payment of any benefits hereunder shall be construed as giving an Executive, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Employer, and the Executive shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Policy had never been executed.

		
	(e)
	If any provision of the Policy shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and the Policy shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

		
	(f)
	The Policy shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Employer and its successors and assigns, and by an Executive and by the personal and legal representatives, executors, administra-tors, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees of the Executive. If an Executive shall die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the death of the Executive) if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Policy to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the Executive's estate. 

5

		
	(g)
	The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Policy, and shall not be employed in the construction of the Policy.

		
	(h)
	The Policy shall not be funded. No Executive shall have any right to, or interest in, any assets of the Employer which may be applied by the Employer to the payment of benefits or other rights under the Policy.

		
	(i)
	All notices and all other communications provided for in the Policy (i) shall be in writing, (ii) shall be hand delivered, sent by overnight courier or by United States registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, addressed, in the case of the Employer, to the principal office of the Employer, attention President, and in the case of the Company, to 2211 Old Earhart Road, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 48105, attention President and General Counsel, and in the case of an Executive, to the last known address of the Executive, and (iii) shall be effective only upon actual receipt.

		
	(j)
	This Policy shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof) to the extent not preempted by federal law, which shall otherwise control.
