DYNEGY INC.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR CERTAIN DIRECTORS

ARTICLE I

Purposes of Plan

The Company has previously established the Dynegy Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Certain
Directors (the “Plan”) for the purpose of providing nonemployee directors of the Company with the
opportunity to defer all or a portion of their cash compensation, to promote the long-term growth
of the Company by increasing the proprietary interest of directors in the Company, to attract and
retain directors with outstanding competence and ability, to stimulate the active interest of such
persons in the development and financial success of the Company and to further the identity of
interests of such directors with those of the Company’s stockholders generally. The Plan is hereby
amended and restated solely with respect to amounts deferred under the Plan on or after January 1,
2005 and the related earnings thereon, effective as of January 1, 2008, to make such modifications
as are necessary or desirable to comply with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and Code
Section 409A, and to make other Plan and administrative amendments. Amounts deferred under the
Plan on or after January 1, 2005 have been administered in good faith compliance with Section 409A
from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2008. The Company intends to maintain the “grandfather”
status of the Plan with respect to amounts deferred prior to January 1, 2005 and the related
earnings thereon, in accordance with Section 409A, and such deferrals and earnings shall continue
to be subject to, and governed by, the terms and conditions of the Plan in effect on October 3,
2004, which have not been “materially modified” for purposes of Section 409A, as set forth in
Appendix A attached hereto. The Plan will be construed and administered in a manner that is
consistent with and gives effect to the foregoing. The Plan is intended to be unfunded for tax
purposes.

Account”) a number of hypothetical shares (including fractional shares) of Common Stock
equal to (a) the Phantom Stock Amount divided by (b) the closing price of a share of
Common Stock on the last Trading Day of the calendar quarter ending on such March 31,
June 30, September 30 or December 31, as applicable; provided, however, that a
Qualified Director’s Company Deferral Account shall receive such credit only if such
individual was a Qualified Director on the March 31, June 30, September 30 or December

the calendar quarter ending on such date by reason of death or disability. The Company
Deferral Account shall be a bookkeeping entry only and shall be utilized solely as a
device for the measurement and determination of the amount to be paid to a Participant
pursuant to the Plan, if any.

	 	(b)	 	Dividends. Dividends and other distributions that would be paid with
respect to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of hypothetical

4

 

	4.2	 	Director Deferrals.

	 	(a)	 	Annual Election to Defer Cash Compensation. With respect to any Plan
Year, a Qualified Director may irrevocably elect, in accordance with this Section 4.2
and Plan Rules, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of his or her Cash
Compensation earned during that Plan Year. In the event that the deferral election is
expressed as a percentage of Cash Compensation, any such deferral election will
automatically apply to any adjusted Cash Compensation during the applicable Plan Year.

	 	(b)	 	Time of Filing Election. A deferral election will not be effective
unless it is made on a properly completed election form received by the Company before
the first day of the Plan Year to which the deferral election relates or such earlier
time as may be required by the Company. However, in the case of an individual who
first becomes a Qualified Director on or after the first day of a Plan Year, the
deferral election may be made within 30 days after the date such individual becomes a
Qualified Director, which shall apply to the Cash Compensation earned after the date of
such election; provided such new Qualified Director was not eligible to participate in
a plan of the Company that is to be aggregated with this Plan under Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(c)(2).

	 	(c)	 	Duration of Deferral Elections. A deferral election made pursuant to
this Section 4.2 for a Plan Year (or remainder thereof in the case of a new Qualified
Director) is irrevocable after the latest date by which the deferral election is
required to be given to the Plan Administrator for such Plan Year (or remainder
thereof) and will remain in effect for future Plan Years unless and until the Qualified
Director changes his or her deferral for future Plan Years. A Qualified Director may
change his or her deferral, including reducing it to zero, by delivering a new deferral
election not later than the day before the first Plan Year to which the new deferral
election relates or such earlier time as may be required by the Plan Administrator.

	 	(d)	 	Deferred Money Account. For each Qualified Director electing to defer
Cash Compensation under the Plan in accordance with this Section 4.2, there shall be
maintained a deferred money account (a “Deferred Money Account”). Deferred Compensation
of each Qualified Director shall be credited as a dollar amount to the Qualified
Director’s Deferred Money Account on the date such Cash Compensation otherwise would be
payable in cash to the Qualified Director. The Deferred Money Account shall be a
bookkeeping entry only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and
determination of the amount to be paid to a Participant pursuant to the Plan, if any.

	 	(e)	 	Vesting. A Participant shall at all times be 100% vested in his or her
Deferred Money Account.

 

5

 

ARTICLE V

Deemed Investment of Accounts 

	5.1	 	Deemed Investments. Each Participant shall designate, in accordance with Plan Rules,
the manner in which the amounts allocated to his or her Deferred Money Account shall be deemed
to be invested from among the investment funds made available from time to time for such
purpose (the “Funds”); provided, however, that one of the Funds that shall be made available
for purposes of this Section 5.1 shall be a hypothetical fund maintained by the Plan
Administrator consisting primarily of Common Stock (the “Dynegy Stock Fund”). A Participant
may designate one of such Funds for the deemed investment of all such amounts allocated to the
Participant’s Deferred Money Account, or he or she may split the deemed investment of such
amounts allocated to his or her Deferred Money Account among such Funds in such increments as
the Plan Administrator may prescribe. If a Participant fails to make a proper designation,
then his or her Deferred Money Account shall be deemed to be invested in the Fund or Funds
designated by the Plan Administrator from time to time in a uniform and nondiscriminatory
manner.

	5.2	 	Changes to Deemed Investments.

	 	(a)	 	A Participant may change his or her deemed investment designation for future
deferrals to be allocated to the Participant’s Deferred Money Account. Any such change
shall be made in accordance with Plan Rules, and the frequency of such changes may be
limited by the Plan Administrator.

	 	(b)	 	A Participant may elect to convert his or her deemed investment designation
with respect to the amounts already allocated to the Participant’s Deferred Money
Account. Any such conversion shall be made in accordance with Plan Rules, and the
frequency of such conversions may be limited by the Plan Administrator. No election of
a conversion designation by a Participant which has the effect of increasing the total
amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund may be made on a date which is less than six
months following (i) the date of any prior election of a conversion designation by such
Participant which had the effect of decreasing the total amount allocated to the Dynegy
Stock Fund or (ii) the date of any election by such Participant with respect to any
other plan of the Company or any subsidiary thereof which had the effect (directly or
indirectly) of making a disposition on behalf of such Participant of Common Stock. No
election of a conversion designation by a Participant which has the effect of
decreasing the total amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund may be made on a date
which is less than six months following (1) the date of any prior election of a
conversion designation by such Participant which had the effect of increasing the total
amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund or (2) the date of any election by such
Participant with respect to any other plan of the Company or any subsidiary thereof
which had the effect (directly or indirectly) of making an acquisition on behalf of the
Participant of Common Stock. The restrictions set forth in the two preceding sentences
shall not apply to a Participant at any time he or she is not subject to Section 16(b)
of the Exchange Act.

	5.3	 	Exchange Act Restrictions. The restrictions contained in the Plan regarding
investment designations, changes, and/or conversions by Participants who are subject to
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act respecting the Dynegy Stock Fund are intended to comply
with, and enable such Participants to rely upon, the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under
the Exchange Act. Any future amendment to Rule 16b-3 or any successor rule promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission affecting the investment by such Participants in the Dynegy
Stock Fund shall be incorporated by reference herein and be deemed to be an amendment to the
Plan in order that such Participants shall continue to be entitled to rely upon the exemption
provided by such rule without any interruption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may alter the
designation, change and/or conversion restrictions applicable to Participants, as set forth
in the Plan, as a result of changes in Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. 

	5.4	 	Earnings Allocations and Account Statements. The balance of each account maintained
on behalf of a Participant shall reflect the result of daily pricing of the assets in which
such account is deemed invested from time to time until the time of distribution. Each
Participant shall be furnished at least annually with a statement of his accounts, which
statement shall show the balance, if any, credited to each of his or her Deferred Money
Account and Company Deferral Account.

ARTICLE VI

Distributions

	6.1	 	Distributions.

	 	(a)	 	Elections as to Time and Form of Payment.

	 	(i)	 	Initial Election. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 6.1(a)(iv) or in Sections 6.1(g), 7.1 and 10.2, a Participant shall
elect, in accordance with Plan Rules and subject to Section 409A, the manner of
distribution (as described in clause (ii)) and the time of distribution (as
defined in clause (iii)), provided such election, as it relates to deferrals
under Sections 4.1 and 4.2, is made no later than the date of the initial
deferral election in the first year of participation and, as it relates to
deferrals credited under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 after the first year of
participation, is made no later than the close of the Plan Year preceding the
first Plan Year during which the services giving rise to such Cash Compensation
are performed or such earlier time as may be required by the Plan
Administrator.

	 	(ii)	 	Form of Distribution. When making an election as to
the form of payment of his or her Accounts, a Participant may elect to receive
the balance in such Accounts in a lump sum or in monthly, quarterly, or annual
installment payments over a specified term certain. In the event a Participant
fails to elect (or elect timely) the form in which his or her Account benefit
payments are to be made, such benefit payments shall be in the form of a
single, lump sum payment to such Participant.

	 	(iii)	 	Time of Distribution. When making an election as to
the time of payment of his or her Accounts, a Participant may elect to receive
the balance in such Accounts as of the later of his or her Separation from
Service or a specified date or dates following his or her Separation from
Service. If no such election is made with respect to such Accounts, the
Participant’s Accounts will be distributed as of his or her Separation from
Service. Distribution upon a Separation from Service will be made, or will
commence, as soon as administratively practicable following his or her
Separation from Service, but no later than the end of the calendar year in
which the Separation from Service occurs or, if later, the 15th day
of the third month following the Separation from Service. Distributions upon a
specified date will be made, or will commence, as soon as administratively
practicable following such specified date, but no later than the end of the
calendar year in which the specified date occurs or, if later, the
15th day of the third month following the specified date.

	 	(iv)	 	Redeferral Election. A Participant may elect to change
the time and manner of his or her distribution provided, in accordance with
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b), (A) the Participant elects, in accordance with Plan Rules and
subject to Section 409A, at least twelve (12) months prior to the date that
the Participant’s first scheduled payment was to begin, (B) the election may
not take effect until at least 12 months after the date on which the
election is made, and (C) the election defers the first payment at least
five (5) years beyond the date

payment otherwise would have been made. For
this purpose, an installment payment distribution option is treated as a
single payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in accordance with the
transition rules set forth under IRS Notice 2005-1, the preamble to the
Proposed Regulations under Code Section 409A, IRS Notice 2006-79 and IRS
Notice 2007-86, the Plan may provide a Participant with the opportunity to
change the time and form of his or distribution, with respect to deferrals
made on or after January 1, 2005, prior to the end of the applicable
transition period. Any election made pursuant to this Section 6.1(a)(iv)
shall be subject to the approval of the 16b-3 Committee and shall not take
effect prior to such date that such election would be deemed to be an exempt
transaction pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. As used in the
Plan, the term “Rule 16b-3 Committee” means a committee appointed by the
Board with respect to the Plan that is comprised solely of “Non-Employee
Directors” as described in Rule 16b-3 promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission; provided, however, that if the Board does not appoint
such a committee, then the full Board shall serve as the Rule 16b-3
Committee.

	 	(b)	 	Medium of Distribution. Subject to the provisions of the Plan that
specify that certain payments shall be made in cash, a Participant shall have the right
to make a one-time election, in accordance with Plan Rules, to receive payments under
the Plan that are attributable to the balance in his or her Company Deferral Account in
 shares of Common Stock or cash; provided, however, that if the Company determines that
shareholder approval of this restatement of the Plan is necessary or desirable under
applicable law and/or the rules of any national or regional securities exchange on
which the Common Stock has been listed in order to make such payments under the Plan in
 shares of Common Stock, then a Participant shall not have the right to make any such
election and he or she shall be deemed to have elected to receive such payments in cash
if the first such payment that is payable to such Participant is required to be paid to
him or her pursuant to this Section 6.1 prior to the date upon which such shareholder
approval is obtained by the Company.

	 	(c)	 	Amount of Distribution for Deferred Money Account. Payments under the
Plan that are attributable to the balance in a Participant’s Deferred Money Account
shall be paid in cash, and the amount of each such payment shall be computed by
dividing the unpaid balance in the Participant’s Deferred Money Account (determined as
of the date of such payment unless another determination date is expressly specified in
the Plan) by the remaining number of payments to be made under the Plan to the
Participant.

	 	(d)	 	Amount of Distribution for Company Deferral Account.

	 	(i)	 	Common Stock Payment. If a Participant elects to
receive such payments in shares of Common Stock, then the number of shares
included in each payment shall equal the number of whole shares determined by
dividing the total number of hypothetical shares of Common Stock credited to
his or her Company Deferral Account as of the date of such payment by the
remaining number of payments to be made under the Plan to the Participant (and
the value of any fractional share shall be paid in cash based on the closing
price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next preceding the date of
payment).

	 	(ii)	 	Cash Payment. If a payment to a Participant under the
Plan that is attributable to the Participant’s Company Deferral Account is to
be paid in cash, then the amount of such payment shall be computed by dividing
the unpaid value of the Participant’s Company Deferral Account (determined
based on the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next
preceding the date of such payment (or on the Trading Day next preceding such
other determination date as is expressly specified in the Plan)) by the
remaining number of payments to be made under the Plan to the Participant.

	 	(e)	 	Adjustments to Dynegy Stock Fund. If the Company determines that any
distribution (whether in the form 0f cash, shares, other securities, or other
property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of shares or
other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase
 shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or
event affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Company to
be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits intended to
be provided under the Plan, then the Company shall, in such manner as it may deem
equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or
other securities or property) comprising the Dynegy Stock Fund, (ii) the number and
type of hypothetical shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) credited
to a Participant’s Company Deferral Account, and (iii) the number and type of shares of
Common Stock (or other securities or property), if any, to be distributed to a
Participant pursuant to Section 6(b).

	 	(f)	 	Adjustments to Accounts. Once an amount has been paid to a Participant
or his Beneficiary, such amount shall be debited from the Participant’s Deferred Money
Account or Company Deferral Account, as applicable.

	 	(g)	 	Death of Participant. If a Participant shall cease to be a Board
member by reason of his or her death or if he or she shall die after he or she shall be
entitled to distributions hereunder but prior to receipt of all distributions
hereunder, then the aggregate unpaid balance in such Participant’s Deferred Money
Account and Company Deferral Account (computed as of the date of his or her death)
shall be distributed in a single, lump sum cash payment to such Beneficiary as the
Participant shall designate in accordance with Article VIII, or in the absence of such
designation, shall be distributed to the individual or estate as determined under
Section 8.4. Distribution shall be made as soon as possible following the
Participant’s death, but no later than the end of the calendar year in which such death
occurs or, if later, the 15th day of the third month following such death.

ARTICLE VII

Change in Control

	7.1	 	Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision in Article VI to the contrary, if a
Qualified Director incurs a Separation from Service with the Company (or any successor) as a
result of or in connection with a Change in Control that occurs no later than two years
following such Change in Control, then the aggregate unpaid balance in the Participant’s
Deferred Money Account and Company Deferral Account (computed as of the later of the date of
such Change in Control or the date such Participant incurs such a Separation from Service with
the Company (or any successor) (the “Computation Date”)) shall be paid to the Participant in a
single, lump sum cash payment as soon as administratively feasible, but no later than 30 days,
after the Computation Date in full satisfaction of all of such Qualified Director’s benefits
hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

Beneficiary Designation

	8.1	 	Beneficiary. Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate his or
her Beneficiary(ies) (both primary as well as contingent) to receive any benefits payable
under the Plan to a beneficiary upon the death of a Participant.

	8.2	 	Beneficiary Designation; Change of Beneficiary Designation. A Participant shall
designate his or her Beneficiary by completing and signing a beneficiary designation form, and
returning it to the Plan Administrator. A Participant shall have the right to change a
Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of a beneficiary
designation form and Plan Rules, as in effect from time to time. Upon the acceptance by the
Plan Administrator of a new beneficiary designation form, all Beneficiary designations
previously filed shall be canceled. The Company shall be entitled to rely on the last
beneficiary designation form filed by the Participant and accepted by the Plan Administrator
prior to his or her death.

	8.3	 	Acknowledgment. No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be
effective until received and acknowledged in writing by the Plan Administrator.

	8.4	 	No Beneficiary Designation. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as
provided in Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 above or, if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the
Participant or die prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, then the
benefits remaining under the Plan to be paid to a Beneficiary shall be payable to the executor
or personal representative of the Participant’s estate, or if none is appointed within six
months of his or her death, to his or her spouse, or if not then living, to his or her then
living descendents, per stirpes.

	8.5	 	Doubt as to Beneficiary. If the Plan Administrator has any doubt as to the proper
Beneficiary to receive payments pursuant to the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall have the
right, exercisable in its discretion, to withhold such payments until this matter is resolved
to the Plan Administrator’s satisfaction.

	8.6	 	Discharge of Obligations. The payment of benefits under the Plan to a Beneficiary
shall fully and completely discharge the Company and all Affiliates from all further
obligations under the Plan with respect to the Participant.

ARTICLE IX

Nature of the Plan and Trust Establishment 

	9.1	 	Unfunded Nature of Plan and Participant’s Rights Unsecured. The Plan constitutes a
mere promise by the Company to make benefit payments in the future. Plan benefits herein
provided are to be paid out of the general assets of Dynegy Administrative Services Company,
an Affiliate of the Company, and the right of any Participant to receive a distribution
hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company and Dynegy
Administrative Services Company, an Affiliate of the Company. The deferred compensation and
benefits hereunder may not be encumbered or assigned by a Participant. The Plan Administrator
may, but shall not be obligated to, acquire shares of outstanding Common Stock, or other
investment assets from time to time in anticipation of the obligation to make distributions
under the Plan, but no Participant shall have any rights in or against any shares of Common
Stock or other investment assets so acquired or in any cash or other investment assets held in
his or her Company Deferral Account and Deferred Money Account. All such Common Stock, other
investment assets and cash shall constitute general assets of Dynegy Administrative Services
Company and may be disposed of by the Plan Administrator at such time and for such purposes as
it may deem appropriate.

 

10

 

	9.2	 	Discretionary Establishment of Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
Dynegy Administrative Services Company, in its sole and absolute discretion in its role as a
Plan Administrator pursuant to the delegation of certain administrative authorities by the
Company, may establish one or more accounts, funds or grantor trusts (the “Trust”) to reflect
obligations under the Plan and may make such investments as it may deem desirable to assist in
meeting such obligations.  The Plan Administrator may transfer money or other property to any
such Trust, and the Trust shall pay Plan benefits to Participants and their Beneficiaries out
of the Trust Fund. Assets held in such Trust shall remain assets of Dynegy Administrative
Services Company, subject to the claims of general creditors of Dynegy Administrative Services
Company. No Participant or Beneficiary shall have any preferred claim to, or any beneficial
ownership interest in, any assets of the Trust, and Participants shall have the status of
general unsecured creditors of the Company and Dynegy Administrative Services Company.

	9.3	 	Interrelationship of the Plan and the Trust. The provisions of the Plan shall govern
the rights of a Participant to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of
the Trust shall govern the rights of Dynegy Administrative Services Company, Participants and
the creditors of the Company and Dynegy Administrative Services Company to the assets
transferred to the Trust. The Company shall at all times remain liable to carry out its
obligations under the Plan.

	9.4	 	Distributions From the Trust. The Company’s obligations under the Plan may be
satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and any such
distribution shall reduce the Company’s obligations under the Plan.

ARTICLE X

Amendment or Termination

	10.1	 	Amendments to the Plan. The Board may amend the Plan at any time, without the
consent of the Participants or other beneficiaries; provided, however, that no amendment shall
divest any Participant or Beneficiary of rights to which he or she would have been entitled if
the Plan had been terminated on the effective date of such amendment except to the extent
necessary to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation, including, but not limited
to, Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan and any payment hereunder may
be amended unilaterally by the Board at any time to make such changes as may be required to
comply with Section 409A.

	10.2	 	Termination of the Plan. The Board shall have the right to terminate the Plan at any
time. Upon termination of the Plan, distributions in respect of credits to a Participant’s
account as of the date of the termination shall be made in the manner and at the time
heretofore prescribed. If the Plan is terminated and a Trust has been established (as
described in Section 9.1), the Trust will pay benefits as provided under the amended or
terminated Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion,
terminate the Plan and accelerate the time and form of payment of benefits under the Plan,
only under the following circumstances:

	 	(a)	 	The Board may terminate and liquidate the Plan within twelve months of a
corporate dissolution taxed under Code Section 331, or with the approval of a
bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 503(b)(1)(A), provided that the remaining
unpaid benefits under the Plan are included in the Participants’ respective gross
incomes in the latest of: (A) the calendar year in which the Plan termination and
liquidation occurs; (B) the first calendar year in which such benefits are no longer
subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or (C) the first calendar year in which
the payment is administratively practicable.

	 	(b)	 	The Board may terminate and liquidate the Plan in connection with the
occurrence of a “change in control event” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)) (a “Section 409A Change in Control”), provided that the
following requirements are satisfied:

	 	(i)	 	The Board takes irrevocable action to terminate and liquidate
the Plan during the period beginning thirty (30) days preceding the Section
409A Change in Control and ending twelve (12) months following such Section
409A Change in Control;

 

11

 

	 	(ii)	 	The benefits of each Participant under the Plan and all other
plans and other arrangements that are treated as single plan with this Plan
under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A-1(c) and 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)
(collectively, the “Other Arrangements”) are distributed within twelve (12)
months following the date that all necessary action to terminate and liquidate
the Plan and the Other Arrangements is irrevocably taken; and

	 	(iii)	 	All Other Arrangements are terminated and liquidated with
respect to each Participant who experienced such Section 409A Change in
Control. For purposes of any Section 409A Change in Control that results from
an asset purchase transaction, the applicable “service recipient” (within the
meaning of Code Section 409A) with the discretion to liquidate and terminate
the Plan and the Other Arrangements shall be the “service recipient” that is
primarily liable immediately after the transaction for the payment of the Plan
benefits.

	 	(c)	 	The Board may terminate and liquidate the Plan for any other reason, provided
that:

	 	(i)	 	The termination and liquidation of the Plan does not occur
proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Company and all of its
Affiliates;

	 	(ii)	 	The Company and all of its Affiliates terminate and liquidate
all Other Arrangements;

	 	(iii)	 	No payments in liquidation of the Plan are made within twelve
months of the date that the Company takes all necessary action to irrevocably
terminate and liquidate the Plan, other than payments that would be payable
under the terms of the Plan if the action to terminate and liquidate the Plan
had not occurred;

	 	(iv)	 	All payments are made within 24 months of the date that the
Company takes all necessary action to irrevocably terminate and liquidate the
Plan; and

	 	(v)	 	The Company and all Affiliates do not adopt any Other
Arrangement at any time during the three-year period following the date the
Company takes all necessary action to irrevocably terminate and liquidate the
Plan.

	 	(d)	 	The Board may terminate and liquidate the Plan upon such other events and
conditions as permitted under Section 409A.

ARTICLE XI

Administration

	11.1	 	Plan Rules and Regulations. The Plan Administrator has the discretionary power and
authority to make such Plan Rules as the Plan Administrator determines to be consistent with
the terms, and advisable in connection with the administration, of the Plan and to modify or
rescind any such Plan Rules.

	11.2	 	Discretion. The Plan Administrator has the sole discretionary power and authority to
make all determinations necessary for administration of the Plan and to construe, interpret,
apply and enforce the provisions of the Plan and Plan Rules whenever necessary to carry out
its intent and purpose and to facilitate its administration, including, without limitation,
the discretionary power and authority to remedy ambiguities, inconsistencies, omissions and
erroneous benefit calculations and to make a determination as to the right of any person to a
benefit under the Plan. In the exercise of its discretionary power and authority, the Plan
Administrator will treat all similarly situated persons uniformly.

 

12

 

ARTICLE XII

Miscellaneous

	12.1	 	Payment in Event of Incapacity. If any individual entitled to receive any payment
under the Plan is, in the judgment of the Plan Administrator, physically, mentally or legally
incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of the payment, and no legal representative
has been appointed for the individual, the Plan Administrator may (but is not required to)
cause the payment to be made to any one or more of the following as may be chosen by the Plan
Administrator: the Beneficiary; the institution maintaining the individual; a custodian for
the individual under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act of any state; or the individual’s
spouse, child, parent, or other relative by blood or marriage. The Plan Administrator is not
required to see to the proper application of any such payment, and the payment completely
discharges all claims under the Plan against the Company, and the Plan to the extent of the
payment.

	12.2	 	Expenses. Costs of administration of the Plan will be paid by the Plan
Administrator.

	12.3	 	Securities Law and Other Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan or any agreements entered into pursuant to the Plan to the contrary, the Company is not
required to issue or distribute any Common Stock under the Plan, and a Participant or
distributee may not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of Common Stock issued or
distributed pursuant to the Plan, unless (a) there is in effect with respect to such Common
Stock a registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of
a state or foreign jurisdiction or an exemption from such registration under the Securities
Act and applicable state or foreign securities laws, and (b) there has been obtained any other
consent, approval or permit from any other regulatory body which the Company, in its sole
discretion, deems necessary or advisable. The Company may condition such issuance,
distribution, sale or transfer upon the receipt of any representations or agreements from the
parties involved, and the placement of any legends on certificates representing Common Stock,
as may be deemed necessary or advisable by the Company in order to comply with such securities
law or other restrictions.

	12.4	 	No Rights to Continued Service Created. Neither the establishment of or
participation in the Plan gives any individual the right to continued service on the Board or
limits the right of the Company or its stockholders to terminate or modify the terms and
conditions of service of such individual on the Board or otherwise deal with any individual
without regard to the effect that such action might have on him or her with respect to the
Plan.

	12.5	 	Successors. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all obligations of
the Company under the Plan are binding on any successor to the Company whether the successor
is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise of all of
the business and/or assets of the Company.

	12.6	 	Governing Law. Questions pertaining to the construction, validity, effect and
enforcement of the Plan will be determined in accordance with the internal, substantive laws
of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of laws rules of the State of Delaware
or any other jurisdiction.

APPENDIX A

Grandfathered Plan Provisions

This Appendix A shall solely govern and control the administration of the Grandfathered
Deferral Accounts of a Participant, if any, with respect to the matters specified in this Appendix
A. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Appendix A and the Plan,
the terms and conditions of this Appendix A shall govern and control. All Section references in
this Appendix A shall refer to Sections within this Appendix A. Plan Definitions under Article II
shall be applicable to this Appendix A unless otherwise stated.

1. Deemed Investment of Deferred Money Accounts.

	 	(a)	 	For the period preceding July 1, 2003, amounts credited to a
Participant’s Deferred Money Account shall be deemed to be invested in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan then in effect. From and after July
1, 2003, amounts credited to a Participant’s Deferred Money Account shall be
deemed to be invested in accordance with the following provisions of this
Section 1.

	 	(b)	 	Each Participant shall designate, in accordance with the
procedures established from time to time by the Company, the manner in which
the amounts allocated to his or her Deferred Money Account shall be deemed to
be invested from among the Funds; provided, however, that one of the Funds that
shall be made available for purposes of this Section 1 shall be the Dynegy
Stock Fund. Such Participant may designate one of such Funds for the deemed
investment of all such amounts allocated to the Participant’s Deferred Money
Account or he or she may split the deemed investment of such amounts allocated
to his or her Deferred Money Account among such Funds in such increments as the
Company may prescribe. If a Participant fails to make a proper designation,
then his or her Deferred Money Account shall be deemed to be invested in the
Fund or Funds designated by the Company from time to time in a uniform and
nondiscriminatory manner.

	 	(c)	 	A Participant may change his or her deemed investment
designation for future deferrals to be allocated to the Participant’s Deferred
Money Account. Any such change shall be made in accordance with the procedures
established by the Company, and the frequency of such changes may be limited by
the Company.

	 	(d)	 	A Participant may elect to convert his or her deemed investment
designation with respect to the amounts already allocated to the Participant’s
Deferred Money Account. Any such conversion shall be made in accordance with
the procedures established by the Company, and the frequency of such
conversions may be limited by the Company. No election of a conversion
designation by a Participant which has the effect of increasing the total
amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund may be made on a date which is less
than six months following (i) the date of any prior election of a conversion
designation by such Participant which had the effect of decreasing the total
amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund or (ii) the date of any election by
such Participant with respect to any other plan of the Company or any
subsidiary thereof which had the effect (directly or indirectly) of making a
disposition on behalf of such Participant of Common Stock. No election of a
conversion designation by a Participant which has the effect of decreasing the
total amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund may be made on a date which is
less than six months following (1) the date of any prior election of a
conversion designation by such Participant which had the effect of increasing
the total amount allocated to the Dynegy Stock Fund or (2) the date of
any election by such Participant with respect to any other plan of the
Company or any subsidiary thereof which had the effect (directly or
indirectly) of making an acquisition on behalf of the Participant of Common
Stock. The restrictions set forth in the two preceding sentences shall not
apply to a Participant at any time he or she is not subject to Section 16(b)
of the Exchange Act.

 

15

 

	 	(e)	 	The restrictions contained in the Plan regarding investment
designations, changes, and/or conversions by Participants who are subject to
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act respecting the Dynegy Stock Fund are intended
to comply with, and enable such Participants to rely upon, the exemption
provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. Any future amendment to Rule
16b-3 or any successor rule promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission affecting the investment by such Participants in the Dynegy Stock
Fund shall be incorporated by reference herein and be deemed to be an amendment
to the Plan in order that such Participants shall continue to be entitled to
rely upon the exemption provided by such rule without any interruption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may alter the designation, change
and/or conversion restrictions applicable to Participants, as set forth in the
Plan, as a result of changes in Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

2. Earnings Allocations and Account Statements. The balance of each account
maintained on behalf of a Participant shall reflect the result of daily pricing of the assets in
which such account is deemed invested from time to time until the time of distribution. Each
Participant shall be furnished at least annually with a statement of his accounts, which statement
shall show the balance, if any, credited to each of his or her Deferred Money Account and Company
Deferral Account.

3. Distribution.

	 	(a)	 	If a Participant’s service as a director terminates prior to
July 1, 2003, then such Participant’s benefits under the Plan shall be paid in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan then in effect. Subject to the
provisions of Sections 3(c), 4 and 7, if a Participant’s service as a director
terminates during the six-month period beginning on July 1, 2003, then the
aggregate amounts credited to his or her Deferred Money Account and Company
Deferral Account (determined as provided in Sections 3(d), (e), (f) and (g))
shall be paid to such Participant in such number of annual installments as
shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion (but not exceeding
ten (10) annual installments). The Company may counsel with a Participant prior
to such determination, and each such annual installment shall be made as of
January 31, beginning with the January 31 following the termination of the
Participant’s service as a director. Except as expressly provided in the
preceding provisions of this Section 3(a), the following provisions of this
Section 3 shall apply only to a Participant whose service as a director
terminates after December 31, 2003.

	 	(b)	 	A Participant shall elect, subject to the provisions of
Sections 3(c), 4 and 7, the time (which may not be prior to the date on which
he or she terminates service as a director) and the mode (which may either be a
lump sum payment or monthly, quarterly, or annual installment payments over a
specified term certain) for payment of the aggregate amounts credited to his or
her Deferred Money Account and Company Deferral Account. A Participant may
revise his or her election regarding the time and mode of payment of amounts
credited to his or her accounts only if, and at such time as, such revised
election is approved by a Rule 16b-3 Committee (as hereinafter 

 

16

 

defined);
provided, however, that such revised election shall not be effective unless the Participant continues
service as a director until the later of (i) the January I following the
date such revised election is approved or (ii) the date that is six months
after the date such revised election is approved. In the absence of
direction by a Participant regarding the time or mode of payment of amounts
credited to his or her accounts, such amounts shall be distributed in a
single lump sum cash payment as soon as practicable after the date on which
he or she terminates service as a director. As used herein, the term “Rule
16b-3 Committee” means a committee appointed by the Board with respect to
the Plan that is comprised solely of “Non-Employee Directors” as described
in Rule 16b-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission;
provided, however, that if the Board does not appoint such a committee, then
the full Board shall serve as the Rule 16b-3 Committee.

	 	(c)	 	If a Participant shall cease to be a director by reason of his
or her death or if he or she shall die after he or she shall be entitled to
distributions hereunder but prior to receipt of all distributions hereunder,
then the aggregate unpaid balance in such Participant’s Deferred Money Account
and Company Deferral Account (computed as of the date of his or her death)
shall be distributed in a single lump sum cash payment to his or her
Beneficiary, or in the absence of such designation, to his or her personal
representative, or if none is appointed within six months of his or her death
to his or her spouse, or if not then living, to his or her then living
descendents, per stirpes.

	 	(d)	 	Payments under the Plan that are attributable to the balance in
a Participant’s Deferred Money Account shall be paid in cash, and the amount of
each such payment shall be computed by dividing the unpaid balance in the
Participant’s Deferred Money Account (determined as of the date of such payment
unless another determination date is expressly specified in the Plan) by the
remaining number of payments to be made under the Plan to the Participant

	 	(e)	 	Subject to the provisions of the Plan that specify that certain
payments shall be made in cash, a Participant shall have the right to make a
one-time election (at the time and in accordance with the procedures prescribed
by the Company) to receive payments under the Plan that are attributable to the
balance in his or her Company Deferral Account in shares of Common Stock or
cash; provided, however, that if the Company determines that shareholder
approval of this restatement of the Plan is necessary or desirable under
applicable law and/or the rules of any national or regional securities exchange
on which the Common Stock has been listed in order to make such payments under
the Plan in shares of Common Stock, then a Participant shall not have the right
to make any such election and he or she shall be deemed to have elected to
receive such payments in cash if the first such payment that is payable to such
Participant is required to be paid to him or her pursuant to this Section 3
prior to the date upon which such shareholder approval is obtained by the
Company. If the Participant elects to receive such payments in shares of Common
Stock, then the number of shares included in each payment shall equal the
number of whole shares determined by dividing the total number of hypothetical
 shares of Common Stock credited to his or her Company Deferral Account as of
the date of such payment by the remaining number of payments to be made under
the Plan to the Participant (and the value of any fractional share shall be
paid in cash based on the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the
Trading Day next preceding the date of payment). If a payment to a Participant
under the Plan that is attributable to the Participant’s Company Deferral
Account is to be paid in cash, then the amount of
such payment shall be computed by dividing the unpaid value of the
Participant’s Company Deferral Account (determined based on the closing
price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next preceding the date
of such payment (or on the Trading Day next preceding such other
determination date as is expressly specified in the Plan)) by the remaining
number of payments to be made under the Plan to the Participant.

 

17

 

	 	(f)	 	If the Company determines that any distribution (whether in the
form of cash, shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization,
stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of shares or other
securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase
 shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate
transaction or event affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is
determined by the Company to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or
enlargement of the benefits intended to be provided under the Plan, then the
Company shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of
(i) the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or
property) comprising the Dynegy Stock Fund, (ii) the number and type of
hypothetical shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) credited
to a Participant’s Company Deferral Account, and (iii) the number and type of
 shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property), if any, to be
distributed to a Participant pursuant to Section 3(e).

	 	(g)	 	Once an amount has been paid to a Participant or his
beneficiary, such amount shall be debited from the Participant’s Deferred Money
Account or Company Deferral Account, as applicable.

4. Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision in Section 3 to the contrary, if
a Participant’s service as a director of the Company (or any successor) shall terminate as a result
of or in connection with a Change in Control, then the aggregate unpaid balance in the
Participant’s Deferred Money Account and Company Deferral Account (computed as of the later of the
date of such Change in Control or the date such Participant ceases to be a director of the Company
(or any successor) (the “Computation Date”)) shall be paid to the Participant in a single lump sum
cash payment as soon as administratively feasible, but no later than thirty (30) days, after the
Computation Date in full satisfaction of all of such Participant’s benefits hereunder.

5. Participant’s Rights Unsecured. The right of any Participant to receive a
distribution hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company. The
deferred Compensation and benefits hereunder may not be encumbered or assigned by the Participant.
The Company may, but shall not be obligated, to acquire shares of its outstanding Common Stock or
other investment assets from time to time in anticipation of its obligation to make distributions
under the Plan, but no Participant shall have any rights in or against any shares of Common Stock
or other investment assets so acquired or in any cash held in his or her Company Deferral Account
and Deferred Money Account. All such Common Stock, other investment assets and cash 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.

6. Amendments to Appendix A. The Board may amend this Appendix A at any time,
without the consent of the Participants or other beneficiaries; provided, however, that no
amendment shall divest any Participant or beneficiary of rights to which he or she would have been
entitled if the Plan had been terminated on the effective date of such amendment.

TRUST UNDER DYNEGY INC.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR CERTAIN DIRECTORS

This TRUST AGREEMENT (“Agreement or Trust Agreement”), effective the 1st day of January,
2009, by and between DYNEGY ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES COMPANY (“Company”), and VANGUARD FIDUCIARY
TRUST COMPANY, a trust company incorporated under Chapter 10 of the Pennsylvania Banking Code
(“Trustee”):

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, DYNEGY INC. (“Dynegy”), an affiliate of the Company, (Dynegy and Company, hereafter
referred to collectively as, “Employer”) has adopted the DYNEGY INC. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
FOR CERTAIN DIRECTORS (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2008) (the “Plan”);

WHEREAS, Employer has incurred or expects to incur liability under the terms of such Plan
with respect to the individuals participating in such Plan;

WHEREAS, Company (in its capacity as a Plan administrator pursuant to the delegation of
certain administrative authorities to Company by Dynegy under the Plan) wishes to establish a
trust (hereinafter called “Trust”) and to contribute to the Trust assets that shall be held
therein, subject to the claims of Company’s creditors in the event of Company’s Insolvency, as
herein defined, until paid to Plan participants and their beneficiaries in such manner and at such
times as specified in the Plan;

WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that this Trust shall constitute an unfunded
arrangement and shall not affect the status of the Plan as an unfunded plan, nor if the Plan is so
structured, one maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of
management or highly compensated employees for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended;

 

 

 

WHEREAS, it is the intention of Company to make contributions to the Trust to provide a
source of funds to assist in the meeting of the liabilities under the Plan; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties do hereby establish the Trust and agree that the Trust shall be
comprised, held and disposed of as follows:

SECTION 1. Establishment of Trust.

(a) The Company shall from time to time deposit amounts with Trustee in trust and such
amounts received by the Trustee shall become the principal of the Trust to be held,
administered and
disposed of by Trustee as provided in this Trust Agreement.

(b) The Trust hereby established shall be irrevocable.

(c) The Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, of which Company is the grantor, within the
meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J, chapter 1, subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986,
as amended, (the “Code”) and shall be construed accordingly.

(d) The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon shall be held separate and apart from
other funds of Company and Dynegy and shall be used exclusively for the uses and purposes of
Plan
participants and general creditors as herein set forth. Plan participants and their
beneficiaries shall have
no preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of the Trust. Any
rights
created under the Plan and this Trust Agreement shall be mere unsecured contractual rights of
Plan
participants and their beneficiaries against Company. Any assets held by the Trust will be
subject to
the claims of Company’s general creditors under federal and state law in the event of
Insolvency, as
defined in Section 3(a) herein.

(e) Company, in its sole discretion, may at any time, or from time to time, make additional
deposits of cash or other property in trust with Trustee to augment the principal to be held,
administered and disposed of by Trustee as provided in this Trust Agreement. Neither Trustee nor
any Plan participant or beneficiary shall have any right to compel such additional deposits.

 

Pg. 2

 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall money and/or property
be transferred to the Trust if prior to such transfer it is known that such transfer would result
in adverse tax consequences to a participant or his beneficiaries pursuant to section 409A(b) of
the Code.

SECTION 2. Payments to Plan Participants and Their Beneficiaries.

(a) Company shall deliver to Trustee a schedule (the “Payment Schedule”) that indicates the
amounts payable in respect of each Plan participant (and his or her beneficiaries), that
provides a
formula or other instructions acceptable to Trustee for determining the amounts so payable,
the form in
which such amount is to be paid (as provided for or available under the Plan), and the time of
commencement for payment of such amounts. The Company shall provide such Payment Schedule
and any updates thereto to the Trustee at such times as will permit the Trustee to make timely
payments
to Plan participants and their beneficiaries pursuant to the terms of the Plan. Except as
otherwise
provided herein, Trustee shall make payments to the Plan participants and their beneficiaries
in
accordance with such Payment Schedule. The Trustee shall make provision for the reporting
and
withholding of any federal or state taxes that may be required to be withheld with respect to
the
payment of benefits pursuant to the terms of the Plan and shall pay amounts withheld to the
appropriate
taxing authorities or determine that such amounts have been reported, withheld and paid by
Company.

(b) The entitlement of a Plan participant or his or her beneficiaries to benefits under the
Plan
shall be determined by Dynegy or such party as it shall designate under the Plan, and any
claim for
such benefits shall be considered and reviewed under the procedures set out in the Plan.

(c) Company may make payment of benefits directly to Plan participants or their beneficiaries
as they become due under the terms of the Plan. Company shall notify Trustee of its decision
to make
payment of benefits directly prior to the time amounts are payable to participants or their
beneficiaries.
In addition, if the principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon, are not sufficient to
make payments
of benefits in accordance with the terms of the Plan, Company shall make the balance of each
such
payment as it falls due. In so much as Trustee has sufficient knowledge, Trustee shall notify
Company
where principal and earnings are not sufficient in a reasonably timely fashion prior to a
payment
becoming due.

 

Pg. 3

 

SECTION 3. Trustee Responsibility Regarding Payments to Trust Beneficiary When Company is
Insolvent.

(a) Trustee shall cease payment of benefits to Plan participants and their beneficiaries if
the
Company is Insolvent. Company shall be considered “Insolvent” for purposes of this Trust
Agreement
if (i) Company is unable to pay its debts as they become due, or (ii) Company is subject to a
pending
proceeding as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code.

(b) At all times during the continuance of this Trust, as provided in Section 1(d) hereof, the
principal and income of the Trust shall be subject to claims of general creditors of Company
under
federal and state law as set forth below.

(1) The Board of Directors and the President of Company shall have the duty to inform
Trustee in writing of Company’s Insolvency. If a person claiming to be a creditor of
Company
alleges in writing to Trustee that Company has become Insolvent, Trustee shall
determine
whether Company is Insolvent and, pending such determination, Trustee shall
discontinue
payment of benefits to Plan participants or their beneficiaries.

(2) Unless Trustee has actual knowledge of Company’s Insolvency, or has received
notice from Company or a person claiming to be a creditor alleging that Company is
Insolvent,
Trustee shall have no duty to inquire whether Company is Insolvent. Trustee may in all
events
rely on such evidence concerning Company’s solvency as may be furnished to Trustee and
that
provides Trustee with a reasonable basis for making a determination concerning
Company’s
solvency.

(3) If at any time Trustee has determined that Company is Insolvent, the Trustee shall
discontinue payments to Plan participants or their beneficiaries and shall hold the
assets of the
Trust for the benefit of Company’s general creditors. Nothing in this Trust Agreement
shall in
any way diminish any rights of Plan participants or their beneficiaries to pursue
their rights as
general creditors of Company with respect to benefits due under the Plan or otherwise.

(4) Trustee shall resume the payment of benefits to Plan participants or beneficiaries
in accordance with Section 2 of this Trust Agreement only after Trustee has determined that
Company is not Insolvent (or is no longer Insolvent).

 

Pg. 4

 

(c) Provided that there are sufficient assets, if Trustee discontinues the payment of
benefits from the Trust pursuant to subsection 3(b) hereof and subsequently resumes such payments,
the first payment following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount of all payments
due to Plan participants or their beneficiaries under the terms of the Plan for the period of such
discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of any payments made to Plan participants or their
beneficiaries by Company in lieu of the payments provided for hereunder during any such period of
discontinuance.

SECTION 4. Payments to Company.

Except as provided in Section 3 and 12 hereof, Company shall have no right or power to direct
Trustee to return to Company or to divert to others any of the Trust assets before all payments of
benefits have been made to Plan participants and their beneficiaries pursuant to the terms of the
Plan.

SECTION 5. Investment Authority.

(a) Trustee may invest in securities (including stock or rights to acquire stock) or
obligations
issued by Employer. All rights associated with assets of the Trust shall be exercised by
Trustee or the
person designated by Trustee, and shall in no event be exercisable by or rest with Plan
participants,
except that voting rights with respect to Trust assets will be exercised by Company. Company
shall
have the right at anytime, and from time to time in its sole discretion, to substitute assets
of equal fair
market value for any asset held by the Trust. This right is exercisable by Company in a non
fiduciary
capacity without the approval or consent of any person in a fiduciary capacity.

(b) The Trust shall be invested by the Trustee among regulated investment companies which
have been previously designated as investment fund alternatives by the Company (the
“Investment
Funds”). The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the selection of the Investment
Funds and
any changes thereto. The Trustee shall invest the Trust in accordance with the written
directions of the
Company or to the extent that such directions are not received for all or a portion of the
Trust and upon
reasonable efforts the Trustee is unable to obtain such directions from the Company, in the
Trustee’s discretion among any of the Investment Funds. The Trustee shall have no liability or
responsibility for acting without question on the direction of the Company with respect to Trust
investments, or for the exercise of investment discretion in the absence of direction from the
Company, unless such actions are contrary to the express provisions of this Trust Agreement or are
negligent or otherwise in willful disregard of the Trustee’s duties under this Trust Agreement.
The Company will indemnify the Trustee for liability to any party resulting from the Trustee
acting without question on the direction of the Company with respect to Trust investments, and for
liability to any party resulting from the exercise of investment discretion in the absence of
investment direction from the Company as to all or a portion of the Trust, unless such actions are
contrary to the express provisions of this Trust Agreement or are negligent or otherwise in
willful disregard of the Trustee’s duties under this Trust Agreement.

 

Pg. 5

 

SECTION 6. Disposition of Income.

During the term of the Trust, all income received by the Trust, net of expenses and taxes,
shall be accumulated and reinvested.

SECTION 7. Accounting by Trustee.

Trustee shall keep accurate and detailed records of all investments, receipts, disbursements,
and all other transactions required to be made, including such specific records as shall be agreed
upon in writing between Company and Trustee. Within one hundred and twenty (120) days following the
close of each calendar year and within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the removal or
resignation of Trustee, Trustee shall deliver to Company a written account of its administration of
the Trust during such year or during the period from the close of the last preceding year to the
date of such removal or resignation, setting forth all investments, receipts, disbursements and
other transactions effected by it, including a description of all securities and investments
purchased and sold with the cost or net proceeds of such purchases or sales (accrued interest paid
or receivable being shown separately), and showing all cash, securities and other property held in
the Trust at the end of such year or as of the date of such removal or resignation, as the case may
be.

 

Pg. 6

 

SECTION 8. Responsibility of Trustee.

(a) Trustee shall act with the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances
then
prevailing that a prudent person acting in like capacity and familiar with such matters would
use in the
conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims, provided, however, that
Trustee shall
incur no liability to any person for any action taken pursuant to a direction, request or
approval given
by Company which is contemplated by, and in conformity with, the terms of the Plan or this
Trust
Agreement and is given in writing by Company. In the event of a dispute between Company and
a
party, Trustee may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to resolve the dispute.

(b) If Trustee undertakes or defends any litigation arising in connection with this Trust,
Company agrees to indemnify Trustee against Trustee’s costs, expenses and liabilities
(including,
without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) relating thereto and to be primarily liable
for such
payments subject to Section 8(g). If Company may be liable for such costs, expenses and
liabilities
under Section 8(g), then Company shall be given the opportunity to be consulted and to
participate in
the litigation (including, but not limited to, participating in selection of counsel for such
litigation) and
to disapprove any negotiated settlement. If Company disapproves any negotiated settlement, it
is
understood that Company shall continue to be obligated under Section 8(g) to indemnify and
save
harmless Trustee against further costs with respect to such claim after the date of such
disapproval, and
the amount (if any) by which the final settlement exceeds the negotiated settlement (but only
provided
that Section 8(g) requires the Company’s indemnification of such amount). If Company does not
pay
such costs, expenses and liabilities in a reasonably timely manner, Trustee may obtain payment
from
the Trust; provided, however, the Trustee shall not be paid out of the Trust unless: (i)
either authorized
to do so by the Company; or (ii) at least 90 days have elapsed since a claim was submitted to
the
Company and the Company has not registered any objections to such claim.

(c) Trustee may consult with legal counsel (who may also be counsel for Company generally)
with respect to any of its duties or obligations hereunder. The Trustee shall obtain approval from
the Company before such consultation or employment to the extent such action will result in an
additional expense for the Plan or Employer.

 

Pg. 7

 

(d) Trustee may hire agents, accountants, actuaries, investment advisors, financial
consultants or other professionals to assist it in performing any of its duties or obligations
hereunder. The Trustee shall obtain approval from the Company before such consultation or
employment to the extent such action will result in an additional expense for the Plan or
Employer.

(e) Trustee shall have, without exclusion, all powers conferred on Trustees by applicable law,
unless expressly provided otherwise herein, provided, however, that if an insurance policy is
held as an
asset of the Trust, Trustee shall have no power to name a beneficiary of the policy other than
the Trust,
to assign the policy (as distinct from conversion of the policy to a different form) other
than to a
successor trustee, or to loan to any person the proceeds of any borrowing against such policy.

(f) Notwithstanding any powers granted to Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement or to
applicable law, Trustee shall not have any power that could give this Trust the objective of
carrying on
a business and dividing the gains therefrom, within the meaning of section 301.7701-2 of the
Procedure
and Administrative Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code.

(g) Unless resulting from the Trustee’s negligence, willful misconduct, lack of good faith, or
breach of its duties under this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify and save harmless the
Trustee
from, against, for and in respect of any and all damages, losses, obligations, liabilities,
liens,
deficiencies, costs and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees
incident to
any suit, action, investigation, claim or proceedings suffered, sustained, incurred or
required to be paid
by the Trustee in connection with the Plan or this Trust Agreement. If Company does not pay
such
costs, expenses and liabilities for which it is liable hereunder in a reasonably timely
manner, Trustee
may obtain payment from the Trust unless another payment arrangement is agreed upon in writing
between the Company and Trustee; provided, however, the Trustee shall not be paid out of the
Trust
unless: (i) either authorized to do so by the Company; or (ii) at least 90 days have elapsed
since a claim
for compensation or reimbursement was submitted to the Company and the Company has not
registered any objections to such claim.

The Trustee shall indemnify and save harmless the Employer from, against, for and in respect
of any and all damages, losses, obligations, liabilities, liens, deficiencies, costs and expenses,
including
without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees incident to any suit, action, investigation, claim
or proceedings suffered, sustained, incurred or required to be paid by the Employer in connection
with this Trust Agreement resulting from the Trustee’s negligence, willful misconduct, lack of
good faith, or breach of its duties under this Agreement.

the Trust unless: (i) either authorized to do so by the Company: or (ii) at least 90 days have

assets. The former Trustee shall execute any instrument necessary or reasonably requested by
Company or the successor trustee to evidence the transfer.
