ABINGTON BANK AMENDED AND RESTATED

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

Abington Savings Bank, doing business as Abington Bank (the “Bank”), previously entered into a
certain Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan originally effective as of October 16, 2002 (the
“Prior SERP”). The Prior SERP was subsequently amended and restated effective as of November 28,
2007 (the “Amended SERP”), in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), including the final regulations issued thereunder,
with none of the benefits payable under the Amended SERP to be deemed grandfathered for purposes of
Section 409A of the Code. The Amended SERP is now being amended and restated again effective as of
January 25, 2011 (as amended and restated, the “Restated SERP”), in order to make certain
clarifying changes and to add certain provisions that shall apply in the event of a change in
control of Abington Bank or Abington Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”). This Restated SERP is designed
to comply with and shall at all times be construed consistent with Section 409A of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder.

The purpose of the Restated SERP is to provide those officers of the Bank who are listed in
Appendix A, which is attached hereto, with supplemental retirement benefits in order to provide
them with a reasonable level of retirement income which will assist them in maintaining an
appropriate standard of living in retirement. The Restated SERP is also intended to encourage and
induce the participating officers to remain in the Bank’s employ until they attain the retirement
age of 65.

ARTICLE I — DEFINITIONS

For purposes hereof, unless otherwise clearly apparent from the context, the following phrases
and terms shall have the indicated meanings:

1.1 Beneficiary. A person or entity designated in accordance with Article IV of this
Restated SERP to receive benefits upon the death of a Participant.

1.2 Change in Control. Change in Control shall mean a change in the ownership of the
Company or the Bank, a change in the effective control of the Company or the Bank or a change in
the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company or the Bank, in each case as
provided under Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

1.3 Compensation. The average of a Participant’s base compensation for the highest
three (3) calendar years during the ten (10) full calendar years immediately preceding the
Participant’s Separation from Service or Change in Control, as applicable (excluding bonus,
commissions, if any, and expense allowances), without reduction for compensation deferred pursuant
to any retirement plan (qualified or non-qualified) maintained by the Employer.

 

-1-

 

1.4 Employer. For purposes of this Restated SERP, the Employer is Abington Bank, a
Pennsylvania chartered savings bank.

1.5 Participant. An employee of the Employer who is eligible to participate in the
Restated SERP and approved by the Board of Directors of the Employer and who is a member of a
select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of Section 201(2) of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

1.7 Plan Committee. A committee of not less than three members of the Board of
Directors of the Employer, which shall be appointed by the Board of Directors of the Employer to
administer this Restated SERP.

1.6 Restated SERP. This Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan as adopted by the
Employer and as may be hereafter amended from time to time.

1.8 Retirement Date. The date on which a Participant reaches sixty-five (65) years of
age.

1.9 Separation from Service. “Separation from Service” means a termination of a
Participant’s services (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) to the Company and
the Bank. Whether a Separation from Service has occurred shall be determined in accordance with
the requirements of Section 409A of the Code based on whether the facts and circumstances indicate
that the Company, the Bank and the Participant reasonably anticipated that no further services
would be performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services the Participant
would perform after such date (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) would
permanently decrease to no more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide
services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately
preceding thirty-six (36) month period.

ARTICLE II — ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

2.1 Conditions of Eligibility. Eligibility to become a Participant in this Restated
SERP will be determined by the Board of Directors of the Employer. Such determination shall be
conclusive and binding upon all persons.

2.2 Commencement of Participation. The Employer or the Plan Committee shall notify
each employee who is eligible to participate in the Restated SERP of his eligibility to participate
in this Restated SERP. Eligible employees shall become Participants in this Restated SERP as of
the effective date of the Prior Plan or upon becoming eligible to participate in the Amended SERP
or this Restated SERP, as the case may be. Each employee who becomes a Participant in this
Restated SERP shall complete such forms as are reasonably required by the Plan Committee for
participation hereunder.

 

-2-

 

2.3 Additional Compensation. A Participant shall receive the benefits provided for
herein in addition to any compensation paid to or benefits provided to the Participant. Except as
otherwise provided herein, nothing in this Restated SERP shall be construed as limiting, varying or
reducing any provision or benefit to a Participant, a Participant’s estate or Beneficiaries
pursuant to any employment agreement, any retirement plan, including any qualified pension or
profit sharing plan, any health, disability or life insurance policies or any other agreement
between the Employer and the Participant.

ARTICLE III — RETIREMENT BENEFITS

3.1 Retirement Benefit. If a Participant has a Separation from Service on or after
the Retirement Date, the Employer will pay to the Participant an annual retirement benefit
(“Retirement Benefit”), determined pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, payable pursuant to the
provisions of Section 3.3 hereof, for ten (10) consecutive years.

3.2 Determination of Retirement Benefit. A Participant’s annual Retirement Benefit
shall be an amount, determined as of such Participant’s Retirement Date, equal to fifty (50%)
percent of the Participant’s Compensation.

3.3 Payment of Retirement Benefits. The Retirement Benefit payable to a Participant
upon such Participant’s Separation from Service, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.1 hereof,
shall be payable in the form of equal quarterly installment payments (“Quarterly Payments”) for ten
(10) consecutive years beginning on the first day of the first full calendar quarter following the
lapse of six months after a Participant’s Separation from Service. All subsequent Quarterly
Payments shall be paid on the first day of each subsequent calendar quarter.

3.4 Change in Control Benefit. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, a
Participant will become one hundred percent (100%) vested in all amounts then accrued for his
benefit under the Restated SERP as of the date of such Change in Control (the “Vested Benefit”).
If a Participant has a Separation from Service within two (2) years after a Change in Control, the
Employer will pay to the Participant the Vested Benefit in a single lump sum cash payment, as such
amount may be increased during the period commencing on the date of the Change in Control and
ending on the date of the Separation from Service based on the Participant’s Compensation, with
such payment to be made on the first day of the month following the lapse of six months after the
Participant’s Separation from Service.

ARTICLE IV — DEATH BENEFITS

4.1 Participant’s Death Following Retirement. If a Participant dies following a
Separation from Service and while receiving a Retirement Benefit, but prior to the payment of forty
(40) Quarterly Payments, the Employer shall pay to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated in
writing by such Participant (or to the Participant’s estate if the Participant fails to so
designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries) the remaining retirement benefits until the
Participant and such Beneficiary or Beneficiaries or estate have received a total of forty (40)
Quarterly Payments.

 

-3-

 

4.2 Participant’s Death Prior to Retirement. If a Participant dies after age
sixty-five (65) but prior to a Separation from Service with the Employer, the Employer shall pay to
the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated in writing by such Participant (or to the Participant’s
estate if the Participant fails to so designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries) the Retirement
Benefit provided for in Section 3.1. For purposes hereof, the date of death shall be deemed the
date of the Participant’s retirement. The Retirement Benefits shall be payable in the form of
equal quarterly installment payments for ten (10) consecutive years beginning with the first day of
the first full quarter following the Participant’s death. If a Participant dies while employed by
the Employer prior to age sixty-five (65), the Employer shall pay the present value of the
aggregate retirement benefit accrued by the Employer as of the date of the Participant’s death to
the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated in writing by the Participant (or to the Participant’s
estate if the Participant fails to so designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries), with such lump sum
payment to be made within seventy-five (75) days of such death.

4.3 Death of Beneficiary. In the event of the death of a Beneficiary who is receiving
a Retirement Benefit in installments pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, the remaining benefit to which
such Beneficiary was entitled at the time of such Beneficiary’s death shall continue to be payable
to the beneficiary or beneficiaries, designated in writing by such Beneficiary, on a form to be
submitted by such Beneficiary to the Plan Committee (or to the Beneficiary’s estate if the
Beneficiary fails to so designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries).

ARTICLE V — PLAN ADMINISTRATION

5.1 Plan Committee. This Restated SERP and all matters related hereto shall be
administered by the Plan Committee. The Plan Committee will interpret the provisions of this
Restated SERP and shall determine all questions arising in the administration, eligibility,
interpretation and application of this Restated SERP. Any such determination by the Plan Committee
shall be conclusive and binding on all persons and shall be consistently and uniformly applied to
all persons similarly situated. The Plan Committee shall engage the services of such independent
actuaries and administrative personnel as it deems appropriate to administer the Restated SERP.

5.2 Claim. Any person claiming a benefit, requesting an interpretation or ruling
under this Restated SERP, or requesting information under the Restated SERP shall present the
request, in writing, to the Plan Committee, which shall respond in writing as soon as practicable.

5.3 Denial of Claim. If the claim or request is denied, the written notice of denial
shall state the reason for denial, with specific reference to the Restated SERP provisions on which
the denial is based and a description of any additional material or information required.

 

-4-

 

5.4 Review of Claim. Any person whose claim or request is denied or who has not
received a response within 90 days may (within 60 days thereafter) request review by notice given
in writing to the Plan Committee. Such request for review must state the specific reasons,
including any Restated SERP provisions, upon which such request for review is based. The claim or
request shall be reviewed by the Plan Committee.

5.5 Final Decision. The decision on review shall normally be made within 60 days. If
an extension of time is required, the claimant shall be notified within 60 days and the time limit
shall be 120 days. The decision shall be in writing and shall state the reason and the relevant
Restated SERP provisions. All decisions on review shall be final and bind all parties concerned.

ARTICLE VI — PARTICIPANT’S RIGHTS

6.1 Participant’s Rights. The rights of a Participant or a Participant’s
Beneficiaries to benefits under this Restated SERP shall be solely those of an unsecured creditor
of the Employer. Any insurance policy or other asset acquired or held by, or on behalf of, the
Employer or funds allocated by the Employer in connection with the liabilities assumed by the
Employer pursuant to this Restated SERP shall not be deemed to be held under any trust for the
benefit of a Participant or Participant’s Beneficiaries or to be security for the performance of
the Employer’s obligations pursuant hereto, but shall be and remain a general asset of the
Employer.

6.2 Spendthrift Provision. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any
right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber,
transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable
hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be
non-assignable and non-transferrable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual
payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or
separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, nor be transferrable by operation
of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency.

6.3 Restated SERP Not An Employment Agreement. This Restated SERP shall not be deemed
to constitute an employment agreement between the parties hereto nor shall any provision hereof
restrict the right of the Employer to discharge a Participant as an employee of the Employer or
restrict a Participant’s right to terminate his employment.

6.4 Protective Provisions. A Participant will cooperate with the Employer by
furnishing any and all information requested by the Employer in order to facilitate the payment of
benefits hereunder, taking such physical examinations as the Employer may deem necessary and taking
such other action as may be requested by the Employer. If a Participant makes any material
misstatement of information or nondisclosure of medical history, then a Participant shall not be
considered as having been a Participant in the Restated SERP.

ARTICLE VII — MISCELLANEOUS

7.1 Termination of Restated SERP. The Employer, upon written notice to a Participant,
shall have the right, at any time, to terminate this Restated SERP; provided, however, that if a
termination of the Restated SERP occurs following a Change in Control, then no such termination
shall adversely affect the rights of a Participant to his Vested Benefit. Such termination shall
become effective when authorized by the Board of Directors of the Employer and written notice is
given to a Participant. Upon termination of this Restated SERP, except as set forth below, (1)
those Participants then receiving Retirement Benefits pursuant to the provisions of Article III,
(2) those Beneficiaries receiving benefits pursuant to the provisions of Article IV, and (3) those
Participants entitled to receive a Vested Benefit following a Change in Control pursuant to Section
3.4 of the Restated SERP shall have a continued right to receive such benefits in accordance with
this Restated SERP. Other Participants who are not then receiving Retirement Benefits will not be
entitled to any benefits pursuant to this Restated SERP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Employer may, in its discretion, elect to irrevocably terminate this Restated SERP within the 30
days preceding a Change in Control and accelerate the payment of benefits under this Restated SERP,
provided that each of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) all arrangements sponsored by the
Company or the Bank and any successors immediately following the Change in Control that would be
aggregated with the Restated SERP under Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(c)(2) are also irrevocably
terminated with respect to each participant that experienced the Change in Control event, (2) each
Participant or beneficiary who is in the process of receiving payments of his or her retirement
benefits under Section III above shall receive all remaining unpaid installments in a lump sum
payment within 30 days following the date of termination of this Restated SERP, (3) each
Participant who is still employed by the Employer as of the date of termination of this Restated
SERP and who has reached his or her Retirement Date shall receive his or her Retirement Benefits in
a lump sum payment within 30 days following the date of termination of this Restated SERP, with the
lump sum payment to be discounted to present value using 120% of the applicable federal rate
determined under Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month in which the lump sum payment is made,
(4) each Participant who is still employed by the Employer as of the date of termination of this
Restated SERP and who has not yet reached his or her Retirement Date shall receive his or her
Vested Benefit in a lump sum payment within 30 days following the date of termination of this
Restated SERP, (5) all participants under the other aggregated arrangements which are required to
also be terminated shall receive all of their benefits under the terminated arrangements within 12
months of the date that all necessary action to irrevocably terminate this Restated SERP and the
other aggregated arrangements is taken, and (6) any other requirements imposed by Treasury
Regulation §1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) shall also be satisfied.

7.2 Inurement. This Restated SERP shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of the Employer and each Participant hereunder and their respective heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns.

 

-6-

 

7.3 Amendments and Modifications. This Restated SERP may be changed or altered by a
written instrument signed by the Employer and shall become effective upon written
notification to the Participants; provided, however, that following a Change in Control, no such
amendment shall adversely affect the rights of a Participant to his or her Retirement Benefits or
Vested Benefit as of the date of such amendment.

7.4 Governing Law. This Restated SERP is made pursuant to, and shall be governed by,
the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in all respects, including matters of construction,
validity and performance.

2005 MOLEX SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

(As Amended and Restated Generally Effective as of January 1, 2011)

ARTICLE 1. ESTABLISHMENT AND PURPOSES

     1.1 Establishment. Molex Incorporated originally adopted the 2005 Molex Supplemental
Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) effective January 1, 2005 to provide for (1) employee
voluntary deferrals, and (2) employer contributions to restore benefits lost by certain employees
under the Molex Incorporated Profit Sharing and Retirement Plan because of limitations imposed by
ERISA and the Code. Effective as of January 1, 2008, the portion of the Plan providing for
employee voluntary deferrals was spun-off to the Molex Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, and
the Molex Incorporated Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Old SERP”) was merged into this
Plan. Effective as of January 1, 2011, the Molex Incorporated Profit Sharing and Retirement Plan
(the “Profit Sharing Plan”) is being merged into The Molex Incorporated Retirement and Savings Plan
(the “Savings Plan”). Effective January 1, 2011, unless otherwise stated herein, this Plan is
hereby amended and restated to (1) restore certain benefits lost by certain employees under the
Savings Plan, as profit sharing contributions will no longer be made under the Profit Sharing Plan,
(2) reflect the merger of the Molex Executive Deferred Compensation Plan into this Plan, and (3)
provide for employee voluntary deferrals of salary and bonus in this Plan. The Plan is a
nonqualified retirement plan for key employees as described herein and is intended to comply with
the provisions of Code Section 409A and any regulations issued thereunder.

     1.2 Purposes. The purposes of the Plan are as follows:

     (a) Restoration of Qualified Benefits. To restore the intended
operation of the nonelective contribution provisions of the Savings Plan for a select group
of management or highly compensated employees of an Employer by replacing certain benefits
lost thereunder due to certain statutory restrictions.

     (b) Expatriate Deferrals. To allow an Expatriate to defer up to
100% of Salary and Bonus while he or she is expatriated out of the United States.

     (c) Discretionary Deferred Contributions. To allow an eligible
employee to defer all or a portion of Salary and Bonus.

     (d) Unfunded Plan. To be an unfunded plan maintained primarily to
provide benefits for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the
meaning of §§ 201, 301, and 401 of ERISA, and therefore to be exempt from the provisions of
Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Title I of ERISA.

     (e) Merger of Prior Plans and the Plan. To continue to reflect the
terms of: (i) the Molex Incorporated Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (As Amended and
Restated, Effective as of January 1, 2007) as merged into this 2005 Molex Supplemental
Executive Retirement Plan, effective as of January 1, 2008; and (ii) the Molex Executive
Deferred Compensation Plan (Effective as of January 1, 2008), as merged into this 2005 Molex
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, effective as of January 1, 2011, for

1

ARTICLE 3. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

     3.1 Eligibility. To be eligible for participation in the Plan for a given Plan Year,
an employee must be among a select group of management or highly compensated employees of an
Employer, and selected for participation by the Committee, such that the Plan qualifies for the
“top hat” exemption from most of the substantive requirements of Title I of ERISA, as described in
Section 1.2(d). Accordingly, the Committee may terminate the participation of any or all
Participants in order to achieve and maintain this intended result; provided, however, such
termination from participation shall not become effective until the first day of the next
succeeding Plan Year. Notwithstanding the prior provisions of this Section 3.1, such an employee
shall be eligible to receive Matching Contributions for a Plan Year only if as of December
1st of the prior Plan Year, the employee is expected to have Salary and Bonus (prior to
any deferrals or other withholdings, whether before or after tax) in excess of the Code Section
401(a)(17) limit ($245,000 for 2011); provided that if an employee becomes eligible to make a
deferral election during a Plan Year, the Committee may in its sole discretion provide that the
employee will be eligible for Matching Contributions if the employee’s Salary at the time of hire
or promotion is at an annual rate in excess of the Code Section 401(a)(17) limit. An employee who
is not otherwise eligible to participate shall be eligible to receive a Supplemental Company
Contribution for a Plan Year if and only if his Salary for the Plan Year prior to any deductions or
withholdings actually exceeds the Code Section 401(a)(17) limit for such Plan Year. The Committee
shall have the sole discretion to determine eligibility pursuant to the Plan.

     3.2 Notice of Eligibility. The Company shall notify eligible employees of their
eligibility to participate in the Plan. An eligible employees shall be treated as initially
eligible to participate in the Plan at the employee’s Initial Eligibility Date. Subject to the
Code Section 409A aggregation rules as applicable, for the first year an employee is notified of
eligibility under this Article 3, the employee must file an Election Form with respect to deferral
elections and payment of his/her Account within 30 days of his/her Initial Eligibility Date;
provided, however, that all such elections shall only be prospective. In the event such eligible
employee does not file an initial Election Form within 30 days of his/her Initial Eligibility Date,
then the eligible employee shall be deemed to: (1) have irrevocably elected not to make Salary
Deferrals or Bonus Deferrals or to receive Matching Contributions for the Plan Year, and (ii) have
irrevocably elected the default form of distribution under Section 5.5(a) of the Plan, which is a
lump-sum distribution, for all Plan Contributions for all Plan Years.

6

 

     3.3 Right to Participation or Employment. No employee shall have the right to be
selected to participate in this Plan or, having been so selected, to be selected to participate in
any future Plan Year. Further, nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the
right of an Employer to terminate any Participant’s employment at any time, nor confer upon any
Participant a right to continue in the employ of an Employer.

     3.4 Effect of Subsequent Ineligibility. In the event a Participant ceases to be
eligible for continued participation in the Plan for any reason, such individual shall become an
inactive Participant, retaining all the rights relating to previous Plan Contributions under the
Plan, until such time that such individual again is determined by the Committee to be an active
Participant or until Separation from Service.

ARTICLE 4. COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS

     4.1 Salary Deferrals. A Participant may elect to defer receipt of all or any portion
of his/her Salary for a given Plan Year by delivering a properly executed Election Form to the
Company within the time specified in Section 4.3(a). The Election Form shall designate the amount
or percentage of Salary that is to be deferred under the Plan for a given Plan Year. The Committee
shall have the sole discretionary authority to establish the maximum amount of Salary Deferrals any
particular Participant shall make to the Plan each Plan Year. The Election Form shall be
irrevocable for a given Plan Year once effective.

     4.2 Bonus Deferrals. A Participant may elect to defer receipt of all or any portion
of his/her Bonus for a given Fiscal Year, or portion thereof, by delivering a properly executed
Election Form to the Company within the time specified in Section 4.3(b). The Election Form shall
designate the amount or percentage of Bonus that is to be deferred under the Plan for a given
Fiscal Year. The Committee shall have the sole discretionary authority to establish the maximum
amount of Bonus Deferrals any particular Participant shall make to the Plan each Fiscal Year. The
Election Form shall be irrevocable for a given Fiscal Year once effective.

     4.3 Deferral Elections.

     (a) Salary Deferral Elections. A Participant shall make an
irrevocable election each Plan Year to defer all or any portion of his/her Salary under the
Plan for such Plan Year by delivering to the Company a properly executed Election Form. The
Election Form shall be completed and filed with the Company with respect to deferrals of
Salary before the beginning of the Plan Year for which services are performed so long as the
employee remains eligible to participate in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing and
subject to the aggregation rules under Code Section 409A, a newly-hired Participant or an
employee who becomes a Participant due to promotion or other such change to employment
status, shall be given thirty (30) days after his or her Initial Eligibility Date to
complete and submit an Election Form. Each properly completed and timely submitted Election
Form shall become effective as of the first day of the following Plan Year; provided,
however, that in the case of a Participant described in the preceding sentence, a properly
completed and timely submitted Election Form shall become effective on the date provided to
the Company.

7

 

     (b) Bonus Deferral Elections. A Participant shall make an
irrevocable election each Fiscal Year (or portion of a Fiscal Year that constitutes a
performance period for Bonus purposes) to defer any or all of his/her Bonus under the Plan
for such Fiscal Year or portion thereof by delivering to the Company a properly executed
Election Form. The Election Form shall be completed and filed with the Company with respect
to deferrals of Bonus before the first day of the Plan Year that includes the first day of
the Fiscal Year or portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the
aggregation rules under Code Section 409A, a newly-hired Participant or an employee who
becomes a Participant due to promotion or other such change to employment status, shall be
given thirty (30) days after his or her Initial Eligibility Date to complete and submit an
Election Form. Each properly completed and timely submitted Election Form shall become
effective as of the first day of the next following Plan Year with respect to Fiscal Years
or portions thereof beginning in such Plan Year; provided, however, that in the case of a
Participant described in the preceding sentence, a properly completed and timely submitted
Election Form shall become effective on the date provided to the Company, but if the date on
which the Election Form becomes effective occurs during a Bonus performance period, the
deferral election shall apply only to the portion of the Bonus determined by multiplying the
Bonus by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in the
performance period after the date on which the Election Form becomes effective and the
denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a Participant’s Bonus is based on a performance period that is coextensive
with one or more Fiscal Years, the Election Form with respect to deferral of such Bonus may
be submitted prior to the first day of such performance period, and to the extent that a
Participant’s Bonus is based on a performance period of at least twelve consecutive months
and otherwise constitutes “performance based compensation” (within the meaning of Code
Section 409A and regulations issued thereunder), the Participant’s Election Form with
respect to the deferral of such performance-based Bonus may be delivered to the Plan
Administrator no later than six months prior to the end of such performance period.

     4.4 Supplemental Company Contributions. For each Plan Year, the Company shall make a
contribution, equal to the Supplemental Company Contribution for such Plan Year, to the Account of
each Participant, if applicable.

     4.5 Matching Contributions. For each Plan Year, the Company shall make a contribution,
equal to the applicable Matching Contribution for such Plan Year to the Account of each Participant
who, as of December 1st of the prior Plan Year, was expected to have Salary and Bonus in
excess of the Code Section 401(a)(17) limit ($245,000 for 2011).

Committee shall have the sole discretionary authority to determine whether a Participant has
incurred a Disability. Payment(s) shall be made in the form elected by the Participant in
accordance with Section 5.5 (or Section 5.6 if applicable) on the Participant’s Election Form.

     5.4 Benefits Upon Death. Notwithstanding the election on the Participant’s Election
Form related to the form of distribution, upon a Participant’s death, the Committee shall pay to
the Participant’s Beneficiary a benefit equal to the remaining balance in the Participant’s Account
in a single lump sum payment, whether or not the Participant’s distribution had commenced before
the date of death. Effective as of January 1, 2009, payment shall be made not more than ninety
(90) days following the Participant’s death.

     5.5 Payment Forms. To the extent a Participant had a distribution election in place
for certain portions of his or her Account in the Plan, the Old SERP, or the Deferred Compensation
Plan before January 1, 2011, such portions of such Accounts shall be distributed in accordance with
the form of distribution previously elected by the Participant pursuant to the terms of the Plan,
the Old SERP, or the Deferred Compensation Plan, for the applicable Plan Year, unless a change in
election is made and is effective pursuant to Section 5.6. Effective for Plan Contributions made
on or after January 1, 2011, the form of payment elected on the Participant’s Election Form for the
2011 Plan Year, or the Participant’s initial Election Form if the Participant’s Initial Eligibility
Date is after December 31, 2010, shall be irrevocable and shall

10

 

apply to all Plan Contributions
made for all Plan Years to a Participant’s Account on or after January 1, 2011. In the event a
Participant does not file an initial Election Form specifying a form of distribution by December
31, 2010, or the Initial Eligibility Date if later, then the Participant shall be deemed to have
irrevocably elected the default form of distribution, which is a lump-sum distribution, for all
Plan Contributions made to his/her Account for all Plan Years beginning with 2011.

     (a) Default Form of Distribution. Unless a Participant otherwise
elects in accordance with paragraph (b) below, his/her Vested Benefits shall be paid in a
single lump sum.

     (b) Forms of Distribution. In lieu of a lump sum form of payment,
a Participant may elect to receive a distribution of his/her Vested Benefits in the form of
substantially equal annual installment payments upon the relevant Distribution Date. A
Participant may select the number of years within the options provided by the Committee on
the Election Form, over which the Vested Benefits are to be paid, up to a maximum of ten
years. Such election shall be made on the Participant’s Election Form for the 2011 Plan
Year, or the Participant’s initial Election Form if the Participant’s Initial Eligibility
Date is after December 31, 2010, as required by the Committee. During the payout period,
earnings shall accrue on a Participant’s Plan Contributions in the manner provided in
Section 6.2. The amount of each installment payment shall be equal to the balance
remaining in the vested portion of the Participant’s Account immediately prior to each such
payment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of
which is the number of installment payments remaining, with the last installment consisting
of the balance of the vested portion of a Participant’s Account, as liquidated to
completely settle the Account. The first installment payment shall be made on the
Distribution Date specified for purposes of Section 5.2, 5.3, or 5.4, and each subsequent
installment shall be paid on the anniversaries of such Distribution Date, except that in
the case of a termination of employment pursuant to Section 5.2(a), installments beginning
with the second installment shall be paid on the anniversaries of the date of the
Participant’s Separation from Service.

     5.6 Changes to Time and Form of Payment in 2010.

     (a) Five (5) Year Rule. Effective only for the Election Form for
the 2011 Plan Year, a Participant who is eligible to make an election for the 2011 Plan
Year may change a prior distribution election under the Plan to another form of
distribution permitted under the Plan; provided, however, that the first payment under the
newly elected form of distribution shall be deferred to a date that is at least five years
after the date the distribution would otherwise have commenced. Such changes in election
will not be permitted on or after January 1, 2011.

     (b) Twelve (12) Month Rule. Any such election changes shall be
completed in accordance with Committee rules, and shall not be effective unless made more
than twelve (12) months before the date payment would otherwise be made or begin to be made
and additionally, such change election shall not become effective for twelve (12) months
after such change election is filed with the Committee. If a Participant dies, becomes
Disabled, or incurs a Separation from Service, during the twelve (12) month

11

 

period after the new election becomes irrevocable, the new election shall be null and void.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in accordance with Code §409A, election changes that have
the effect of accelerating the time for payment shall be prohibited.

     5.7 Unforeseeable Emergency.

     (a) Request for Distribution. A Participant may request that all
or a portion of his/her vested Account balance be distributed at any time by submitting a
written request to the Committee demonstrating that he or she has suffered an Unforeseeable
Emergency, and that the distribution is necessary to alleviate the financial hardship
created by the Unforeseeable Emergency.

     (b) Committee Determination. The Committee shall have the sole
discretionary authority to determine whether a Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable
Emergency. Whether a Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Emergency shall be
determined based on the relevant facts and circumstances of each case. In making such a
determination, the Committee shall take into account the extent that such Unforeseeable
Emergency is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or
otherwise, or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (unless such liquidation itself
would cause a severe financial hardship).

     (c) Timing of Distribution. Upon the finding that the Participant
has suffered an Unforeseeable Emergency, the Committee shall distribute to the Participant
in a lump sum that portion of his/her Account necessary to satisfy the Unforeseeable
Emergency, plus taxes attributable thereto. Distributions made pursuant to this Section
5.7 shall be made no later than ninety (90) days after the Committee has reviewed and
approved the request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions due to Unforeseeable
Emergencies shall only be made in accordance with regulations promulgated by the Department
of Treasury or other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service under Code §409A.

     (d) Impact of Hardship Withdrawals Under Savings Plan. A
Participant shall not be required to take any hardship withdrawal or loan to which he is
entitled under the Savings Plan or any other tax qualified retirement plan as a condition
of receiving a distribution pursuant to this Section 5.7, but if a Participant receives a
hardship withdrawal from the Savings Plan or any other tax-qualified §401(k) plan
maintained by an Employer and the terms of such plan require a suspension of the
Participant’s deferrals for six months following the date of the distribution, then the
Participant’s Salary Deferral and Bonus Deferral elections shall be permanently revoked for
the Plan Year in which the Participant receives the hardship withdrawal and, if such
hardship withdrawal is received less than six months prior to the end of the Plan Year, any
Salary Deferral or Bonus Deferral elections made for the following Plan Year shall not
apply to any compensation paid or payable within six months following the date of the
hardship withdrawal.

     5.8 Source of Assets for Benefits. All Vested Benefits shall be paid first from the
Trust, to the extent assets exist in the Trust and then, as necessary, by the Employer from other
general assets.

12

 

     5.9 Forfeitures. Any Forfeitures triggered in a given Plan Year shall be applied in
the same manner as forfeitures are applied under the Savings Plan.

     5.10 Withholding of Taxes. The Employer shall have the right to require Participants
to remit to the Employer an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local tax withholding
requirements, or to deduct from all payments made pursuant to the Plan amounts sufficient to
satisfy such withholding requirements.

ARTICLE 6. INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS

     6.1 Participants’ Accounts. The Employer shall establish and maintain individual
Accounts for each Participant hereunder. The establishment and maintenance of Participants’
Accounts, however, shall not be construed as entitling any Participant to any specific assets of an
Employer. Supplemental Company Contributions shall be credited to a Participant’s Account annually
during the immediately following Plan Year after the relevant computations have been completed
under the Savings Plan. Salary Deferrals and Bonus Deferrals shall be credited to a Participant’s
Account on the date of funding pursuant to Section 7.5.

     6.2 Earnings and Losses. Each Participant’s Plan Contributions shall be credited with
earnings (or losses) thereon daily or some less frequent time period as agreed upon by the
Committee and the Trustee. Such earnings (or losses) shall be based upon the actual returns
achieved pursuant to the Investment Elections of each Participant.

     6.3 Distributions. There shall be charged against each Participant’s Plan
Contributions any payments of Vested Benefits made to the Participant or to a Participant’s
Beneficiary and any Forfeitures associated therewith.

     6.4 Participant Statements. Statements that identify the Participant’s Account
balance shall be provided to Participants on a basis no less frequent than quarterly.

ARTICLE 7. THE TRUST

     7.1 Establishment of Irrevocable Trust. The Company has established an Irrevocable
Trust, governed by the Trust Agreement, (which shall be a grantor trust within the meaning of Code
§§671-678) with the Company as the grantor, for the benefit of Plan Participants and Beneficiaries
of Participants, as appropriate. The Trust shall receive and hold all Plan Contributions, and
earnings (or losses) thereon, and shall make the payments provided by the Plan. The Trust fund
shall be held and invested by the Trustee at the direction of the Committee and in accordance with
the Trust Agreement.

     7.2 Trustee. The Trust shall have an independent Trustee (such Trustee to have a
fiduciary duty to carry out the terms and conditions of this Plan) as selected by the Company, and
shall have restrictions as to the Company’s ability to amend the Trust or to cancel benefits
provided thereunder. Except to the extent that investments of the Trust fund are subject to the
direction of the Committee, or to the direction of investment managers appointed pursuant to
Section 7.3, the Trustee shall have the sole and exclusive responsibility for investing the Trust
fund. The Trust Fund shall not be required to be invested in any of the Investment Funds

13

 

     7.3 Investment Managers. The Committee may designate one or more investment managers
to control and manage (including the power to direct the acquisition and disposition of) the
investment funds and to make professional investment decisions or recommendations. The Committee
shall not be liable for any act or omission of such investment managers, except as required by law

     7.4 Assets. Assets contained in the Trust shall at all times be specifically subject
to the claims of the Employer’s general creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency; such
terms shall be specifically defined within the provisions of the Trust, along with a required
procedure for notifying the Trustee of any such bankruptcy or insolvency.

     7.5 Funding. The Employer shall contribute cash or cash equivalents to the Trust for
the benefit of Participants for each component comprising Plan Contributions as soon as practicable
after the amount of each such respective component is known for each Participant, provided the
Employer shall not be required to contribute cash or cash equivalents to the Trust for Matching
Contributions and Supplemental Company Contributions until a reasonable time after the applicable
Plan Year. The aggregate amount to be so contributed by the Employer on a periodic basis to the
Trust shall be equal to the aggregate Plan Contributions of all Participants.

ARTICLE 8. INVESTMENT ELECTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS

     8.1 Investment Election. Each Participant shall make an Investment Election to have
the earnings or losses on his/her Account determined as if the Account were allocated among among
the investment funds described below in any combination in multiples of one percent (1%). To the
extent that a Participant shall have made no election hereunder, such Participant’s Account shall
be allocated to the investment fund having investment guidelines that contemplate the least risk of
loss of principal as determined by the Committee. To the extent that a Participant makes no new
election provided for hereunder in accordance with this Section 8.1, the allocation of his/her
Account among the investment funds shall remain unchanged. The Committee shall designate two or
more separate investment funds as selected from time to time, each of which shall consist either of
separate accounts within the Trust, or mutual funds or other investment vehicles with objectively
determined investment returns. The Committee shall have the authority to select and change the
number of investment funds available and to set the investment guidelines of each investment fund
and to otherwise set policy and establish the funding strategies utilized by the Trust, as the
Committee may deem appropriate. All or any portion of any investment fund may, on a temporary
basis, be retained in cash or invested in property other than that specified as the primary type of
investment for such investment fund. Any investment fund may be partially or entirely invested in
any common or commingled fund that is invested in property of the kind specified for such
investment fund.

     8.2 Change of Prior Election. Subject to rules and procedures as the Committee may
establish, each Participant may change the allocation of his/her Account among the investment funds
provided for in Section 8.1 by making a new Investment Election. The Committee shall have the
authority and discretion to limit reallocation or trading practices that the Committee or an
Investment Manager determines to be abusive or adverse to the investment fund or to the interests
of other Plan participants.

14

 

     8.3 Form of Election. The Investment Elections shall be made in such form and in such
manner as the Committee shall prescribe.

     8.4 Transfer of Funds. When an amount or amounts must be transferred between
investment funds by reason of a Participant’s election hereunder, such amount shall be transferred
to one or more of the other investment funds pursuant to such election as soon as practical.

     8.5 Allocating Distributions. Any time a distribution (as defined in Section 6.3) of
part or all of the amount allocated to the Account of a Participant is made pursuant to this Plan,
a pro rata share of such distribution shall be made from each investment fund in which said Account
is invested.

ARTICLE 9. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

     9.1 Designation of Beneficiary. Each Participant shall be entitled to designate a
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries who, upon the Participant’s death, shall receive the amounts that
otherwise would have been paid to the Participant under the Plan. All designations shall be signed
by the Participant, and shall be in a form prescribed by the Committee. The Participant may change
his/her designation of Beneficiary at any time, on a form prescribed by the Committee. The filing
of a new Beneficiary designation form by a Participant shall automatically revoke all prior
designations by that Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such new Beneficiary designation
is not effective until received by the Committee during the Participant’s lifetime.

     9.2 Death of Beneficiary. In the event that all the Beneficiaries named by a
Participant, pursuant to Section 9.1 herein, predecease the Participant, the Plan Contributions
that would have been paid to the Participant shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

     9.3 Ineffective Designation. In the event the Participant does not designate a
Beneficiary, or for any reason such designation is ineffective in whole or in part, the
ineffectively designated amounts shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

ARTICLE 10. ADMINISTRATION

     10.1 The Committee. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee in accordance
with any rules and regulations that the Committee shall establish from time to time, which are
consistent with the provisions of this Plan.

     10.2 Authority of the Committee. The Committee shall have full power to make any
determination that may be necessary or advisable for the Plan’s administration including, but not
limited to, the following:

a key employee;

     (b) establish the maximum Salary and/or Bonus Deferrals;

an Unforeseeable Emergency; and

     (f) establish, amend, or waive rules and regulations for the Plan’s
administration.

     10.3 Delegation of Committee Members’ Powers. A Committee member may delegate any or
all of his/her rights, powers, duties, and discretions to any other Committee member, with the
consent of the latter. The Committee may delegate any or all of its powers, rights, duties, and
discretions to an individual to act as “Administrator” who may, but need not be, a Committee member
or an employee of the Company. Such delegation and the acceptance thereof by such individual shall
be in writing and written notice of such delegation shall be given to the Company. To the extent
the Committee has delegated its powers, rights, duties, and discretions to an Administrator, the
term “Committee” as used in this Plan shall include such Administrator.

     10.4 Manner of Action of the Committee. The Committee members may act by meeting, or
by writing signed without meeting, and may sign any document by signing one document or concurrent
documents.

     10.5 Decisions Binding. All determinations and decisions made by the Committee
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all persons,
including the Employer, its owners, employees, Participants, and their estates and Beneficiaries.

     10.6 Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold the members of the
Committee, its and their delegates and each Employer’s directors, officers, and employees harmless
from all claims, liabilities, and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of the
good faith performance of their functions hereunder.

     10.7 Claims Procedures. Claims for benefits under the Plan shall be determined by the
Committee, which shall have the sole discretionary authority to interpret the Plan, to determine
factual matters under the Plan and to decide claims for benefits under the Plan. The claims
procedures used by the Committee under the Plan shall be the claims procedures set forth in the
Savings Plan for claims for benefits under the Savings Plan. Benefits shall be paid under the Plan
only if the Committee determines in its discretion that the claimant is entitled to them.

ARTICLE 11. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     11.1 Right to Terminate and Amend. The Company or the Committee may amend, modify,
and/or terminate the Plan at any time. While the Company contemplates carrying out the provisions
of the Plan indefinitely, the Company shall be under no obligation or liability to maintain the
Plan for any minimum or other amount of time.

     11.2 Notice of Termination. Upon any termination of the Plan in its entirety, the
Committee shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee and to each Participant.

16

 

     11.3 Effect of Termination. Except as provided by law, upon any termination of the
Plan, the Company shall thereafter be under no obligation, liability, or responsibility to make any
future contribution or other payment to the Trustee on behalf of any Participant or any other
person, trust, or fund for any purpose under or in connection with the Plan except as provided in
Section 13.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all other provisions of the Plan concerning the
investment of Accounts and distribution of benefits shall continue. No distributions of any
Account shall be made or accelerated on account of the termination of the Plan except as otherwise
permitted by §409A of the Code or regulations issued thereunder.

     11.4 Limitations on Amendments. The provisions of this Article 11 are subject to and
limited by the following restrictions:

     (a) No such amendment or termination shall in any manner adversely affect
any Participant’s rights to contributions previously made, or to pay previously deferred, or
earnings thereon, without the consent of the Participant.

     (b) The provisions of the Trust may only be amended or modified with the
written consent of both the Company and the Trustee.

     11.5 Merger, Consolidation, Reorganization, or Transfer.

     (a) General Rule. The merger, consolidation, or reorganization of
the Company, or the sale or transfer by it of all or substantially all of its assets shall
not terminate the Plan if there is delivery to the Company by the Company’s successor or by
the purchaser of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, of a written instrument
requesting that the successor or purchaser be substituted for the Company and agreeing to
perform all the provisions hereof which the Company is required to perform. Upon the
receipt of said instrument, with the approval of the Company, the successor or the purchaser
shall be substituted for the Company herein, and the Company shall be relieved and released
from any obligations of any kind, character, or description herein or in any trust agreement
imposed upon it.

     (b) No Assumption of Plan by Company’s Successor. In the event
that the Plan is not assumed by the Company’s successor or by the purchaser of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets in a merger, consolidation, reorganization or
sale/transfer of the Company, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company
shall only be permitted to freeze the Plan to new participants as of such transactional date
but not terminate the Plan as of such transactional date. Current Participants as of such
transactional date who are not yet fully vested in their Account pursuant to Section 4.6
shall be permitted to continue vesting in their Account following such amendment to freeze
as of the transactional date. Notwithstanding Section 11.1, the Company shall not be
permitted to terminate and liquidate the Plan until all Participants have become fully
vested under Section 4.6 following such transactional date.

ARTICLE 12. PARTICIPATION IN AND WITHDRAWAL

FROM THE PLAN BY AN EMPLOYER

     12.1 Affiliate Participation in the Plan. Any Affiliate which desires to become an
Employer hereunder may elect, with the consent of its board of directors, to become a party to

17

 

the Plan and Trust Agreement by adopting the Plan for the benefit of its eligible employees, effective
as of the date specified in such adoption:

     (a) by filing with the Company a certified copy of a resolution of its
board of directors to that effect, and such other information as the Company may require;
and

     (b) by the Company’s filing with the then Trustee a copy of such
resolution, together with a certified copy of resolutions of the adopting organization’s
board of directors approving such adoption.

The adoption resolution may contain such specific changes and variations in Plan or Trust Agreement
terms and provisions applicable to such adopting Employer and its employees as may be acceptable to
the Company and the Trustee. However, the Company reserves the sole, exclusive right of any other
amendment of whatever kind or extent to the Plan or Trust Agreement. The Company may not amend
specific changes and variations in the Plan or Trust Agreement terms and provisions as adopted by
the Employer in its adoption resolution without the consent of such Employer. The adoption
resolution shall become, as to such adopting organization and its employees, a part of this Plan as
then amended or thereafter amended and the related Trust Agreement. It shall not be necessary for
the adopting organization to sign or execute the original or then amended Plan and Trust Agreement
documents. The coverage date of the Plan for any such adopting organization shall be that stated
in the resolution or decision of adoption, and from and after such effective date, such adopting
organization shall assume all the rights, obligations, and liabilities of an individual employer
entity hereunder and under the Trust Agreement. The administrative powers and control of the
Company, as provided in the Plan and Trust Agreement, including the sole right to amendment, and of
appointment and removal of the Committee, the Trustee, and their successors, shall not be
diminished by reason of the participation of any such adopting organization in the Plan and Trust
Agreement.

     12.2 Withdrawal from the Plan. Any Employer, by action of its board of directors or
other governing authority, may withdraw from the Plan and Trust Agreement after giving 90 days’
notice to the Company, provided the Company consents to such withdrawal. The Company shall
thereafter be under no obligation, liability or responsibility to make any future contribution or
other payment to the Trustee on behalf of any employee or any other person with respect to such
Employer under the Plan. No distributions of any Account shall be made or accelerated on account
of the Employer’s withdrawal except as otherwise permitted by §409A of the Code or regulations
issued thereunder.

ARTICLE 13. MISCELLANEOUS

     13.1 Costs of the Plan. All costs of implementing and administering the Plan shall be
borne by the Employer.

     13.2 Nontransferability. Participants’ rights to their Accounts under the Plan may
not be sold, transferred, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution. In no event shall the Employer make any payment under
the Plan to any assignee or creditor of a Participant or to any assignee or creditor of a
Participant’s Beneficiary.

18

 

     13.3 Successors. All obligations of the Employer under the Plan shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of any successor to the Employer, whether the existence of such successor
is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Employer.

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

     13.5 Applicable Law. To the extent not preempted by federal law, the Plan shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Illinois.

     13.6 Gender and Number. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine
