         1.40(k)-1(d)(2)(iv)(B)(4) as a condition of such Participant's
         receipt of a hardship withdrawal from any plan of the Company which

         non-discrimination testing pursuant to Code Section 401(k)(3) or
         any successor section applicable to the Qualified Plan, that an
         additional elective contribution under Code Section 402(g)(3), or
         any successor section, could have been allocated to the
         Participant's Qualified Plan Subaccount A for such Plan Year, then
         pursuant to an election made by the Participant at the same time as
         the election made in Paragraph (a) of this Section, the amount of
         such additional elective contribution shall:

                           (i)      be deducted from the Participant's
                                    Supplemental Subaccount A and
                                    transferred to the Participant's
                                    Qualified Plan Subaccount A; or

                           (ii)     be paid directly to the Participant.

                  Any transfer or payment of such additional amount shall
         occur no later than March 15 of the Plan Year following the Plan
         Year for which such non-discrimination testing is made.

                  (d) In no event shall any deduction from the Participant's
         Supplemental Subaccount A for any Plan Year pursuant to Paragraph
         (c) of this Section exceed the amount that the Participant elected
         to defer for such Plan Year pursuant to Paragraph (a) of this
         Section. No earnings or appreciation attributable to any amount
         transferred or paid under Paragraph (c) of this Section shall be
         transferred or paid.

                  (e) The election by which a Participant elects to defer
         Compensation provided in Paragraph (a) of this Section and the
         additional election provided in Paragraph (c) of this Section shall
         be in writing, signed by the Participant, and delivered to the
         Company prior to January 1 of the Plan Year in which the

         Participant; except that:

                                    the date on which the Plan is effective;
                                    and

                           (ii)     for the Plan Year in which a Participant
                                    first becomes eligible to participate in

                                    Subaccount B of the Participant for the

                                    deferred by the Participant pursuant to
                                    subparagraph (a)(1) of Section 3.1,
                                    without giving effect to any reductions
                                    required by the limitations imposed by
                                    the Code on the Qualified Plan; provided
                                    that there shall be no match hereunder
                                    of any amount deferred which exceeds the
                                    Participant's annual limitation on
                                    elective contributions set forth in Code
                                    Section 402(g);

                           (ii)     The amount of the Qualified Plan Company
                                    Matching Contribution actually allocated
                                    to the Participant's Qualified Plan
                                    Subaccount B for the Plan Year.

         All Supplemental Company Matching Contributions shall be allocated
         to a Participant's Supplemental Subaccount B.

         Matching Contributions made pursuant to this Section relating to
         such transferred amounts shall be deducted from the Participant's
         Supplemental Subaccount B and transferred to the Participant's

                                    to any amount transferred pursuant to
                                    this Section shall be transferred;

                           (iii)    If a Participant elects to have an
                                    additional elective contribution paid to
                                    him pursuant to subparagraph (c)(ii) of
                                    Section 3.1, any Supplemental Company
                                    Matching Contribution relating to such
                                    amount shall remain in this Plan.

                                    Contribution shall be transferred to the
                                    Qualified Plan only to the extent that
                                    the Qualified Plan, after receiving such
                                    transferred contribution, will satisfy
                                    the non-discrimination tests set forth
                                    in Code Section 401(m) or any successor
                                    section for the applicable Plan Year.

                                 ARTICLE IV

                  INVESTMENT OF SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRIBUTIONS

         A Participant may request that his Supplemental Subaccounts A and B
be treated as if they were allocated among the available investment options
under the Qualified Plan, except that there shall be no deemed investment in
stock issued by the Company. The initial allocation request may be made at
the time a Participant executes his initial Supplemental Compensation
Reduction Agreement as provided in Section 3.2. Once made, an investment
allocation request shall remain in effect for all subsequent contributions
to the Plan until changed by a Participant. A Participant may change his
investment allocation by submitting a written request to the Company on such
forms as may be required by the Company. Such changes shall become effective
as soon as administratively feasible after the Company receives such written
request. Although the Company intends to invest contributions to the Plan
according to a Participant's requests, it reserves the right in its sole
discretion to invest contributions to the Plan without regard to such
requests.

                                 ARTICLE V

                                DISTRIBUTIONS

         5.1. Distribution - General Rule. All amounts credited to a
              ---------------------------
Participant's Supplemental Subaccounts A and B, including gains and losses
credited in accordance with Article IV of the Plan, shall be distributed to
or with respect to a Participant only upon termination of the Participant's
employment with the Company and all affiliates thereof for any reason
including retirement, death or disability. All amounts distributable under
the Plan shall be distributed in the form of a single lump-sum payment;
provided, however, if the Participant's termination of employment is due to
his retirement under the terms of the Qualified Plan, then the Participant
may request that instead of a single lump-sum payment, he receive payment of
his Supplemental Subaccounts A and B under the Plan in installments over a
period not to exceed ten (10) years; however, such request shall not be
effective unless expressly approved in writing by the Committee. If the
Committee shall not approve such request in writing, then the form of
payment of the Participant's Supplemental Subaccounts A and B shall be a
single lump-sum payment.

                                     6

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

         If a Participant should die before distribution of the full amount
of Supplemental Subaccounts A and B has been made to him, any remaining
amounts shall be distributed to the Beneficiary and in the form of a single
lump-sum payment. If a Participant has not designated a Beneficiary, or if
no designated Beneficiary is living on the date of distribution, such
amounts shall be distributed to those persons entitled to receive
distributions of the Participant's accounts under the Qualified Plan and in
the form of a single lump-sum payment.

         5.2. Distribution - Special Rule. In addition to or in lieu of the
              ---------------------------
distribution set forth in Section 5.1, a Participant may elect to allocate,
in whole or in part, amounts to be credited to his Supplemental Subaccounts
A and B to a "Fixed Period Subsubaccount" which shall be distributed as
follows: All amounts credited to a Fixed Period Subsubaccount, including
gains and losses credited in accordance with Article IV of the Plan, shall
be distributed to the Participant in the form of a single lump-sum payment
within ninety (90) days after the January 1 of the Plan Year selected for
payment by such Participant. A Participant may establish a maximum of four
(4) Fixed Period Subsubaccounts, with separate payment years for each such
Subsubaccount. The minimum initial deferral period for each Subsubaccount
shall be five (5) years. If a Participant should die before distribution of
the full amount of Subaccounts A and B which have been allocated to any
Fixed Period Subsubaccount, any remaining amount shall be distributed to the
Beneficiary and in the form of a single lump-sum payment. If a Participant
has not designated a Beneficiary, or no designated Beneficiary is living on
the date of the distribution, such amounts shall be distributed to those
persons entitled to receive distributions of the Participant's accounts
under the Qualified Plan and in the form of a single lump-sum payment. The
election to allocate amounts to be credited to Supplemental Subaccounts A &
B to a Fixed Period Subsubaccount shall be made on the Supplemental
Compensation Reduction Agreement (see Exhibit A) and in accordance with
Sections 3.1(e) and 3.2 hereof. A Participant may not modify, alter, amend
or revoke such allocation for a Plan Year after such Plan Year begins.
Furthermore, amounts in one Fixed Period Subsubaccount cannot be transferred
to another Fixed Period Subaccount.

         5.3. Unforeseeable Emergency. The Committee shall have the sole and
              -----------------------
absolute discretion to grant a Participant's request to withdraw all or any
amount credited to his Supplemental Subaccounts A and B to the extent
reasonably needed to satisfy an emergency need created by an Unforeseeable
Emergency. An "Unforeseeable Emergency" is a severe financial hardship to
the Participant resulting from a sudden and unexpected illness or accident
of the Participant or a dependent (as defined in Code Section 152(a)) of the
Participant, loss of the Participant's property due to casualty, or other
similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of
events beyond the control of the Participant. The circumstances that will
constitute an Unforeseeable Emergency will depend on the facts of each case,
but in any case, payment may not be made to the extent that such hardship is
or may be relieved (i) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or
otherwise, (ii) by liquidation of the Participant's assets, to the extent
the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial
hardship, or (iii) by cessation of all contributions under the Plan.
Examples of what are not considered to be Unforeseeable Emergencies include
the need to send the Participant's child to college or the desire to
purchase a home.

         6.3.3. Company's right to settle claims. The Company may, at its own
                --------------------------------
         expense, settle any claim asserted or proceeding brought against

                          AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION

         7.1. Amendment or Termination. The Company intends the Plan to be
              ------------------------

sole opinion of the Company, such amendment or termination is advisable. Any
such amendment or termination shall be made pursuant to a resolution of the
Board and shall be effective as of the date of such resolution.

         7.2. Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment or
              ----------------------------------
termination of the Plan shall directly or indirectly reduce the balance of
any Supplemental Subaccount A or B held hereunder as of the effective date
of such amendment or termination. Upon termination of the Plan, distribution
of amounts in Supplemental Subaccounts A or B shall be made to the
Participant or his beneficiary in the manner and at the time described in
Section 5.1 of the Plan. No additional credits of Supplemental Compensation
Reduction Contributions or Supplemental Company Matching Contributions shall
be made to the Supplemental Subaccounts of a Participant after termination
of the Plan, but the Company shall continue to credit gains and losses to
Supplemental Subaccounts pursuant to Article IV until the balance of such
Subaccounts have been fully distributed to the Participant or his
beneficiary.

                                ARTICLE VIII

                             GENERAL PROVISIONS

         8.1. Participant's Rights Unsecured. The Plan at all times shall be
              ------------------------------
entirely unfunded and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to
segregating any assets of the Company for payment of any distributions
hereunder. The right of a Participant or his designated beneficiary to
receive a distribution hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the
general assets of the Company, and neither the Participant nor a designated
beneficiary shall

                                     9

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

have any rights in or against any specific assets of the Company. All
amounts credited to Supplemental Subaccounts A and B of Participants shall
constitute general assets of the Company and may be disposed of by the
Company at such time and for such purposes as it may deem appropriate.

         8.2. General Conditions. Except as otherwise expressly provided
              ------------------
herein, all terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan applicable to a
Qualified Plan Salary Reduction Contribution or a Qualified Plan Company
Matching Contribution will also be applicable to a Supplemental Compensation
Reduction Contribution or a Supplemental Company Matching Contribution to be
made hereunder. Any Qualified Plan Salary Reduction Contribution or
Qualified Plan Company Matching Contribution, or any other contributions to
be made under the Qualified Plan, shall be made solely in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan and nothing in this Plan
shall operate or be construed in any way to modify, amend or affect the
terms and provisions of the Qualified Plan.

         8.3. No Guarantee of Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan shall
              ------------------------
constitute a guaranty by the Company or any other person or entity that the
assets of the Company will be sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder.

         8.4. No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant shall have
              ---------------------------------
any right to receive a distribution of contributions made under the Plan
except in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Establishment of the Plan
shall not be construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in
the service of the Company.

         8.5. Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in,
              ---------------------
or right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any
manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or
other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right
to receive a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily for
the satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against,
such person or entity, including claims for alimony, support, separate
maintenance and claims in bankruptcy proceedings.

         8.6. Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and administered
              --------------
under the laws of the State of Missouri.

         8.7. Incapacity of Recipient. If any person entitled to a distribution
              -----------------------
under the Plan is deemed by the Company to be incapable of personally receiving
and giving a valid receipt for such payment, then, unless and until claim
therefor shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian or other legal
representative of such person, the Company may provide for such payment or
any part thereof to be made to any other person or institution then
contributing toward or providing for the care and maintenance of such
person. Any such payment shall be a payment for the account of such person
and a complete discharge of any liability of the Company and the Plan
therefor.

         8.8. Corporate Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically
              --------------------
terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Company or by the merger
or consolidation of the Company into or with any other corporation or other
entity, but the Plan shall be continued after such sale, merger or
consolidation only if and to the extent that the transferee, purchaser or
successor entity

                                     10

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

agrees to continue the Plan. In the event that the Plan is not continued by
the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the Plan shall terminate
subject to the provisions of Section 7.2.

         8.9. Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Company
              -----------------
informed of his current address and the current address of his designated
Beneficiary. The Company shall not be obligated to search for the
whereabouts of any person. If the location of a Participant is not made
known to the Company within three (3) years after the date on which payment
of the Participant's Supplemental Subaccounts A and B may first be made,
payment may be made as though the Participant had died at the end of the
three-year period. If, within one additional year after such three-year
period has elapsed, or, within three years after the actual death of a
Participant, the Company is unable to locate any designated Beneficiary of
the Participant, then the Company shall have no further obligation to pay
any benefit hereunder to such Participant or Beneficiary and such benefit
shall be irrevocably forfeited.

         8.10. Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any of the
               ------------------------
preceding provisions of the Plan, neither the Company nor any individual
acting as employee or agent of the Company shall be liable to any
Participant, former Participant or other person for any claim, loss,
liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Plan to be executed
by a duly authorized officer this 1st day of November, 2003.

Compensation Plan, I hereby agree as follows:

         1. The compensation otherwise payable to me by Angelica Corporation
for any calendar year, commencing with the year which begins on January 1,
20  , shall be reduced by      % and the amount of such reduction shall be
  --                      -----
allocated as a Supplemental Compensation Reduction Contribution made for my
benefit pursuant to the Angelica Corporation Mirror 401(k) and Deferred
Compensation Plan for such year. Optional Election With Respect To Any
Bonus.

Box A / / For purposes of this election, I wish to EXCLUDE any bonus paid to
me.

Box B / / For purposes of this election, I wish to EXCLUDE any salary paid
          to me, and instead defer entirely from any bonus paid to me.

         2. No later than March 15 of each calendar year following a
calendar year for which an election is in effect pursuant to paragraph 1
above, Angelica Corporation shall allocate from my Supplemental Subaccount A
to my Qualified Plan Subaccount A under the Angelica Corporation Retirement
Savings Plan a portion (not to exceed 100%) of the Supplemental Compensation
Reduction Contribution made for my benefit for such preceding calendar year
pursuant to paragraph 1 above, equal to the maximum amount of elective
contributions that can be made to my Qualified Plan Subaccount A under the
Angelica Corporation Retirement Savings Plan consistent with all applicable
limitations of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to that Plan for such
preceding calendar year.

         3. Optional Election to Allocate Contributions to a Fixed Period
Subsubaccount (Plan Section 5.2). I wish to allocate contributions to be
made pursuant to paragraph 1 above and/or Supplemental Company Matching
Contributions as follows:

                  (a) Rather than receive distribution of contributions made
         to the Plan pursuant to the general rule stated in Plan Section
         5.1, I wish to create a "Fixed Period Subsubaccount" which shall be
         payable January 1 of the following year:               (insert the
                                                  -------------
         year which for an initial deferral must be at least five (5) years
         after the Plan Year the election is effective).

                  (b) Further, I wish to allocate the percentage of
         contributions made on my behalf to the account created in (a) above
         as follows:

                  o  Supplemental Compensation Reduction Contributions        %
                                                                       -------

                  o  Supplemental Company Matching Contributions              %
                                                                       -------

         4. These elections shall be irrevocable for all calendar years
commencing on and after January 1, 20-- and prior to the date I revoke the
elections by written instrument delivered to Angelica Corporation.

         B.       APPROVAL OF INITIAL CLAIM

         If a claim for benefits is approved, the Plan Administrator shall
provide the Claimant with written or electronic notice of such approval. The
notice shall include:

                  1.       The amount of benefits to which the Claimant is
                           entitled.

         C.       DENIAL OF INITIAL CLAIM

         If a claim for benefits is denied (in whole or in part) by the Plan
Administrator, the Plan Administrator shall provide the Claimant with
written or electronic notification of such denial within ninety (90) days
(forty-five (45) days in the case of a claim for disability benefit) after
receipt of the claim, unless special circumstances require an extension of
time for processing the claim. (See Section III for the procedures
concerning extensions of time.)

         The notice of denial of the claim shall include:

                  1.       The specific reason that the claim was denied.

                  2.       A reference to the specific plan provisions on
                           which the denial was based.

                  3.       A description of any additional material or
                           information necessary to perfect the claim, and

                           bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a)
                           if the claim is denied on appeal.

                  5.       Any materials required under 29 C.F.R. Section
                           2560.503-1(g)(1)(v).

         The Claimant (or his duly authorized representative) may review
pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing to the Plan
Administrator. The Claimant may appeal the denial as set forth in the next
section of this procedure. IF THE CLAIMANT FAILS TO APPEAL SUCH ACTION TO
THE PLAN ADMINISTRATOR IN WRITING WITHIN THE PRESCRIBED PERIOD OF TIME
DESCRIBED IN THE NEXT SECTION, THE PLAN ADMINISTRATOR'S DENIAL OF A CLAIM
SHALL BE FINAL, BINDING AND CONCLUSIVE.

II.      APPEAL PROCEDURES

         A.       FILING THE APPEAL

         In the event that a claim is denied (in whole or in part), the
Claimant may appeal the denial by giving written notice of the appeal to the
Plan Administrator within 60 days (one hundred eighty (180) days in the case
of a claim for disability benefit) after the Claimant receives the notice of
denial of the claim.

         At the same time the Claimant submits a notice of appeal, the
Claimant may also submit written comments, documents, records, and other
information relating to the claim. The Employer (or its designee) shall
review and consider this information without regard to whether the
information was submitted or considered in conjunction with the initial
claim.

         B.       GENERAL APPEAL PROCEDURE

         The Employer may hold a hearing or otherwise ascertain such facts
as it deems necessary and shall render a decision which shall be binding
upon both parties.

         The Employer shall render a decision on appeal within sixty (60)
days (forty-five (45) days in the case of a claim involving disability)
after the receipt by the Plan Administrator of the notice of appeal, unless
special circumstances require an extension of time. (See Section III for the
procedures concerning extensions of time.)

         The appeal decision of the Employer shall be provided in written or
electronic form to the Claimant. If the appeal decision is adverse to the
Claimant, then the written decision shall include the following:

                  1.       The specific reason or reasons for the appeal
                           decision.

                  2.       Reference to the specific plan provisions on
                           which the appeal decision is based.

                  3.       A statement that the Claimant is entitled to
                           receive, upon request and free of charge,
                           reasonable access to, and copies of, all
                           documents, records, and other information
                           relevant to the Claimant's claim for benefits.
                           (Whether a document, record, or other information
                           is relevant to a claim for benefits shall be
                           determined by reference to 29 C.F.R. Section
                           2560.503-1 (m)(8).)

                  4.       A statement describing any voluntary appeal
                           procedures offered by the Plan and the Claimant's
                           right to obtain the information about such
                           procedures.

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

                  5.       A statement of the Claimant's right to bring an
                           action under Section 502(a) of the Employee
                           Retirement Income Security Act.

         C.       SPECIAL APPEAL PROCEDURE FOR DISABILITY CLAIMS.

         For the purpose of any appeal of an adverse benefit determination
regarding a disability benefit, in addition to the procedures set forth in
Section II.B., the following procedures shall also apply:

                  1.       The appeal will be conducted by an appropriate
                           named Fiduciary designated by the Employer. The
                           Fiduciary will be neither the individual who
                           denied the claim initially, nor a subordinate of
                           such individual.

                  2.       In deciding the appeal, the Fiduciary shall not
                           give any deference to the initial determination
                           that was made concerning the claim.

                  3.       If the initial claim was denied based in whole or
                           in part on a medical judgment (including a
                           judgment as to whether a particular treatment,
                           drug, or other item is experimental,
                           investigational, or not medically necessary or
                           appropriate), then the Fiduciary shall consult
                           with a health care professional who has
                           appropriate training and experience in the field
                           of medicine involved in the medical judgment. Any
                           such professional shall be neither an individual
                           who was consulted in connection with the initial
                           claim, nor the subordinate of any such
                           individual.

                  4.       If the Fiduciary obtains the advice of medical or
                           vocational experts in connection with the appeal,
                           then the Fiduciary must identify the expert(s),
                           without regard to whether the fiduciary relied
                           upon the advice when deciding the appeal.

                  5.       In the event of an adverse determination on
                           appeal:

                           a.       If an internal rule, guideline,
                                    protocol, or other similar criterion was
                                    relied upon in making decision on
                                    appeal, then the written decision on
                                    appeal shall include either (a) the
                                    specific rule, guideline, protocol, or
                                    other similar criterion, or (b) a
                                    statement that such rule, guideline,
                                    protocol, or other similar criterion was
                                    relied upon in making the adverse
                                    determination and that a copy of the
                                    rule, guideline, protocol, or other
                                    similar criterion will be provided to
                                    the Claimant free of charge upon
                                    request.

                           b.       If the decision on appeal was based on a
                                    medical necessity or experimental
                                    treatment or similar exclusion or limit,
                                    then the written decision on appeal
                                    shall include either (a) an explanation
                                    of the scientific or clinical judgment
                                    for the determination, applying the
                                    terms of the Plan to the Claimant's
                                    medical circumstances, or (b) a
                                    statement that such explanation will be
                                    provided free of charge upon request.

                           c.       The written decision on appeal shall
                                    include the following statement: "You
                                    and your plan may have other voluntary
                                    alternative dispute resolution options,
                                    such as mediation. One way to find out
                                    what may be available is to contact your
                                    local U.S. Department of Labor Office
                                    and your State insurance regulatory
                                    agency."

III.     EXTENSIONS OF TIME

         A.       NOTICE OF EXTENSION

         If the Employer requires an extension of time, the Employer shall
provide the Claimant with written or electronic notice of the extension

         The notice of the extension shall include:

                  1.       An explanation of the circumstances requiring the

                  2.       The date by which the Administrator or Employer

                  4.       The unresolved issues, if any, that prevent a
                           decision on the claim or on appeal, and the
                           information needed to resolve those issues. In
                           the event that such information is needed:

                           a.       The Claimant shall have at least
                                    forty-five (45) days in which to provide
                                    the specified information.

                           b.       The time for determining an initial
                                    claim shall be tolled from the date on
                                    which the notice of extension is sent to
                                    the Claimant, until the date on which
                                    the Claimant responds to the request for
                                    additional information.

than one extension of ninety (90) days shall be allowed.

         For purposes of an initial claim involving disability, no more than
two extensions of thirty (30) days each shall be allowed.

         For purposes of an appeal not involving disability, no more than
one extension of sixty (60) days shall be allowed.

         For purposes of an appeal involving disability, no more than one
