SECTION 3.
  ELIGIBILITY AND VESTING    
    

        3.1    ELIGIBILITY

        3.1.1    Any
executive of the Employer shall be eligible for consideration as a Participant in this Plan. 

        3.1.2    It
shall be the prerogative of the Board of Directors of Multifoods, or the Committee, to designate an Employee as a Participant under this Plan. The Board of
Directors of Multifoods, or the Committee, in designating Participants shall give full consideration to recommendations submitted by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Multifoods. 

        3.1.3    An
Employee designated as a Participant under this Plan will commence participation as soon as administratively practicable after he or she is notified of such
designation by the Company (or, if later, as of the date the Employee first becomes eligible to participate in the VISA Plan). 

        3.1.4    An
Employee designated as a Participant under this Plan will continue as a Participant under this Plan until death, termination of employment, or until removed from
participation by the Board of Directors of Multifoods, or by the Committee. However, the Plan is intended to cover only those Employees who are in a select group of management or highly compensated
employees within the meaning of Section 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and, accordingly, if any interpretation is issued by
the Department of Labor that would exclude any Employee from satisfying that requirement, such Employee immediately will cease to be a Participant. 

3

 

        3.2    VESTING

        A
Participant shall at all times have a fully vested and nonforfeitable interest in his or her Account under the Plan. 

 
 

SECTION 4.
  ACCOUNT CREDITS AND CHARGES    
    

        4.1    DEFERRED COMPENSATION CREDITS

        4.1.1    A
Participant may elect either or both of the following: 

        (a)   A
Participant may elect that, if his or her "Before-Tax Contributions" under the VISA Plan for a calendar year are limited under Code section 402(g)
(or, if the Participant is eligible for "Catch-Up Before-Tax Contributions" under the VISA Plan, if his or her Before-Tax Contributions are limited by the combined
limit under Code sections 402(g) and 414(v)), such additional amounts as would have been contributed as Before-Tax Contributions under the VISA Plan if such limit did not apply
(based upon the actual deferral elections made by the Participant under the VISA Plan) shall instead be deferred under this Plan. 

        In
the case of a Participant who becomes a Participant in the year in which he or she is first hired as an Employee, the Board of Directors of Multifoods or the Committee may, in its
sole discretion, waive for the year in which he or she becomes a Participant the requirement that he or she have reached the applicable limit specified above under the VISA Plan before he or she is
allowed to defer under this Plan, provided that the Participant certifies that he or she has reached the applicable limit under a qualified plan maintained by his or her prior employer during such
year. 

        (b)   A
Participant may elect to defer a percentage of his or her Excess Covered Pay under this Plan. The amount of the deferral may equal any whole percentage, but not less
than 2% or more than 10% of his or her Excess Covered Pay. 

        The
Account of each Participant shall be credited as of the last day of each calendar quarter during the year with the amount deferred by the Participant for such calendar quarter. 

        A
Participant who wishes to defer amounts hereunder for a calendar year must execute a salary reduction agreement and file the same with Multifoods prior to the first day of the calendar
year (or, in the case of an employee who commences participation during the calendar year, prior to date on which he or she commences participation). Such salary reduction agreement shall be
irrevocable for the calendar year. An election made by a Participant for a calendar year shall continue in effect for the next and subsequent calendar years until revoked or modified by the
Participant prior to the first day of a calendar year. 

        4.2    MATCHING CREDITS

        4.2.1    The
Account of each Participant shall be credited as of the last day of each calendar quarter during the year with a matching credit equal to the additional amount (if
any) that would have been contributed for payroll periods ending within such quarter as a "Matching Contribution" under the VISA Plan (other than a "true-up" Matching Contribution) if the
deferred compensation credits under this Plan for such calendar quarter had been made as "Before-Tax Contributions" under the VISA Plan and if the Excess Covered Pay of such Participant
were recognized for purposes of applying the matching formula under the VISA Plan. However, notwithstanding the prior sentence, additional credits shall not be added under this Plan prior to the
calendar quarter after the calendar quarter in which the Participant's aggregate Covered Pay (as defined in the VISA Plan) and Excess Covered Pay for the year equals the compensation limit in effect
for the calendar year under Code section 401(a)(17). 

4

 

        4.2.2    A
"true-up" matching credit will be added to the Account of a Participant as of the last day of the calendar year if such Participant is an Employee on the
last day of the calendar year and a true-up Matching Contribution is added to his or her account under the VISA Plan. The amount of the true-up matching credit under this Plan
will equal the additional amount (if any) that would have been contributed for the Plan Year as a true-up Matching Contribution under the VISA Plan if the deferred compensation credits
under this Plan for the Plan Year had been made as "Before-Tax Contributions" under the VISA Plan and if the Excess Covered Pay of such Participant were recognized for purposes of applying
the true-up matching formula under the VISA Plan. 

        4.3    INTEREST CREDITS

        The
Account of each Participant (and each subaccount thereunder) shall be credited as of the last day of each calendar quarter during the year with interest at a rate equal to one
quarter of the annual rate reported for such date (or the next preceding business day) in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release as the yield on U.S. Treasury bills with a constant maturity of
10 years. Such interest shall be credited based on the balance of the Account (or subaccount) as of the first day of the calendar quarter,
reduced by any withdrawals or distributions made from the Account (or subaccount) during the calendar quarter (but not increased for deferred compensation or matching credits made for the calendar
quarter). 

        4.4    DISTRIBUTION/WITHDRAWAL CHARGE

        The
Account of each Participant shall be charged with any distribution or withdrawal as of the date of the distribution or withdrawal. 

 
 

SECTION 5.
  BENEFITS    
    

        5.1    BENEFIT PAYABLE TO PARTICIPANT

        5.1.1    The
balance of a Participant's Account shall be paid (or start to be paid) to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable following the termination of
employment of the Participant. 

        5.1.2    The
balance of a Participant's Account shall be paid in either of the following forms as elected by the Participant: 

        (a)   A
single lump-sum payment. 

        (b)   A
series of substantially equal annual installments over a period not exceeding the lesser of 10 years or the life expectancy of the Participant. 

The
election of an alternative payment form must be made contemporaneously with the first salary reduction agreement entered into by the Participant for this Plan. 

        5.1.3    Notwithstanding
any provisions to the contrary contained in this Plan, if the balance of the Participant's Account is $10,000 or less as of his or her termination of
employment, such balance shall
be paid in the form of a single lump-sum payment as soon as administratively practicable following termination of employment. 

5

  

        5.2    BENEFIT PAYABLE UPON DEATH

        If
a Participant dies before full payment of the balance of his or her Account under this Plan, the remaining balance shall be paid to his or her beneficiary as soon as administratively
practicable after the Participant's death. Such balance shall be paid in a single lump-sum payment. 

        A
Participant's "beneficiary" for this purpose means any person (including a trust) designated in writing by the Participant to receive the death benefit payable under this Plan. If no
such designation is made by the Participant, or if such designation fails, in whole or in part, by reason of the prior death of such person or for any other cause, then the Participant's "beneficiary"
shall mean the surviving spouse of the Participant, if one shall then survive; or, if not, then the surviving issue of the Participant per stirpes and not per capita; or, if no issue survive the
Participant, then the executor, administrator or personal representative of the estate of the deceased Participant. 

        5.3    HARDSHIP WITHDRAWALS

        If
a Participant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Committee that he or she is facing a financial hardship (as defined below), he or she may withdraw in a single
lump-sum all or any portion of his or her Account. 

        A
"financial hardship" for this purpose means a need that is determined by the Committee to be an immediate and heavy financial need that arises from an unforseen emergency affecting the
Participant and that cannot be satisfied through other resources that are reasonably available to the Participant. 

        5.4    CHANGE IN CONTROL OF THE COMPANY

        Notwithstanding
any provisions to the contrary contained in this Plan, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company, the fact and the date ("Date") of which is to be
determined finally and conclusively by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or by the Vice-President—Finance and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, to be evidenced
by a letter signed by such officer, addressed and delivered to the Committee, the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to each Affected Participant under this Plan in lieu of any
benefits (excluding benefits paid to any Affected Participant prior to the Date of a Change in Control of the Company) payable pursuant to Sections 5.1 through 5.3 hereof, automatically and
simultaneously, without any further action, determination or notice of any kind, a lump sum in an amount equal to the balance (or the remaining balance) of his or her Account under this Plan. 

        If
a Change in Control of the Company occurs and both the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Vice President-Finance and Chief Financial Officer of the Company fail, for any
reason whatsoever, to sign, address and deliver to the Committee the letter described above in this Section 5.4, such failure shall not affect in any manner the obligation of the Company or the
full right, title and interest of each Affected Participant under this Plan to receive from the Company the full amount of the lump sum payment determined and calculated in accordance with the
forgoing provisions of this Section 5.4, subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.5 hereof; and the entitlement of each Affected Participant to receive such sum from
the Company shall be valid and enforceable by each Affected Participant in any state or federal court having jurisdiction thereof. 

        5.5    PARACHUTE PAYMENTS

        In
the event it shall be determined that any payment by the Company to or for the benefit of the Participant hereunder determined without regard to any additional payments required under
this Section 5.5 (a "Payment") would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Code section 4999 or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Affected Participant with respect to such
excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then the Affected Participant shall be entitled to receive an
additional payment (a "Gross-Up 

6

 

Payment")
in an amount such that after payment by the Affected Participant of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any
income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Affected Participant retains an amount of the
Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payment. 

        For
purposes of these calculations, all applicable amounts shall be determined by the Company's independent auditors. 

 
 

SECTION 6.
  LIABILITY OF COMPANY    
    

        6.1    The
benefits of this Plan shall be paid by Multifoods or any of its consolidated subsidiaries or by a trust established by the Company for this purpose. The amounts of
all benefits under the Plan, shall be provided for in such manner and form as shall be approved, from time to time, by the Board of Directors or the Committee, to assure that funds will be available
to pay all such amounts when due, to Participants under the Plan. 

        6.2    A
Participant who has a benefit under this Plan shall be an unsecured general creditor of the Company as to the payment of any benefit under the Plan. 

 
 

SECTION 7.
  ADMINISTRATION    
    

        7.1    Except
for the functions reserved to the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company or a trustee, if any,
appointed by the Company, the administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the Committee. 

        7.2    The
Committee shall have the power and the duty to take all actions necessary and proper to carry out the provisions of this Plan. The determinations of the Committee

        7.4    The
Committee may appoint a person or persons to act in the day-to-day administration of the Plan, which person or persons may or may not be a
Participant or a member of the Committee. 

        7.5    Except
in circumstances involving bad faith, no member of the Committee, the Board of Directors of the Company or the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company,
or any person assisting in the Plan administration, shall be liable, in respect to this Plan, for any act whether of commission or omission taken by any other member of the Committee, officer, agent
or employee of

amend or revise this Plan in such respects as the Board of Directors of Multifoods by resolution may deem advisable; provided that no such extension, modification, amendment or revision shall deprive
a Participant or any beneficiary designated by a Participant, of any portion of his or her Account under this Plan determined as of the date of such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
amendment of Section 4.3 regarding the rate used for interest credits may apply to all interest credits after the date the amendment is adopted, including credits with respect to existing
Account balances. The fact that a director is, has been, or will be a Participant in this Plan shall not disqualify such Participant from voting as a director for or against an extension,
discontinuance, modification, amendment or revision of this Plan or any part thereof. 

        8.2    The
Company intends to continue this Plan indefinitely, but nevertheless assumes no contractual obligation, other than as specifically provided herein, beyond the

Account determined as of the date of termination shall be paid in the form of a single lump-sum payment as soon as administratively practicable following the termination of the Plan.
Payment of a lump-sum shall be in full satisfaction of all benefits otherwise payable under this Plan. 

 
 

SECTION 9.
  MISCELLANEOUS    
    

        9.l    This
Plan is not a contract between the Employer and any Participant or beneficiary, and nothing herein shall affect the right of the Employer to discharge an Employee. 

        9.2    Except
to the extent required by law, no benefit hereunder shall be subject to anticipation, alienation, garnishment, sale, pledge, transfer, encumbrance, judgment or
damage. Any attempt at such
may cause the Committee to cancel the benefit, or pay it otherwise for the use of the Participant or beneficiary. 

        9.3    If
the Committee determines that a person entitled to benefits hereunder is incompetent, it may cause benefits to be paid to another person for the use of the
Participant or beneficiary, in total discharge of the Plan's obligations. 

        9.4    The
provisions of the Plan shall be construed and governed under the laws of the State of Minnesota, unless and except as preempted by federal law; provided, however,
that the provisions of any trust agreement relating to a trust established for the purpose of accumulating assets to assist the Company in fulfilling the obligations of the Company under this Plan
shall be construed and under the laws of the jurisdiction stated in such trust agreement. 

        9.5    In
determining entitlement to benefits and in calculating the amount of any credits to Participants and benefits payable to Participants under this Plan which are based
or predicated upon the VISA Plan, the terms and conditions (including, without limitations, any provisions governing payment options available to Participants) of the VISA Plan shall govern and
control, except as specifically provided otherwise in this Plan.
