 Exhibit 10.30 
 ALLSCRIPTS HEALTHCARE SOLUTIONS, INC. 
 Restricted Stock Award Agreement 
 (Officers and Employees) 
 THIS AGREEMENT is made as of             , 2005 (the “Grant Date”), by and between Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Corporation”), and «First_Name» «Last_Name» («Last_Name») 
 WHEREAS,
«Last_Name» is expected to perform valuable services for the Corporation and the Corporation considers it desirable and in its best interests that «Last_Name» be given a proprietary interest in the Corporation and an
incentive to advance the interests of the Corporation by possessing shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in accordance with the Corporation’s Amended and Restated 1993 Stock
Incentive Plan adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Plan”). 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the
foregoing premises, it is agreed by and between the parties as follows: 
  

	1.	Grant of Restricted Stock. 

  

	 	(a)	Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, the Corporation hereby grants to «Last_Name» an award of
             restricted shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (the “Restricted Stock Award”), which shall vest and become unrestricted in accordance with
Section 2 hereof. 

  

	 	(b)	Legend. The certificate representing the shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement shall bear a legend, in addition to any other legends as appropriate, substantially
similar to the following: 

 “The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether
voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in the Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. 1993 Stock Incentive Plan, as restated and amended, and rules and administration adopted pursuant to
such Plan, and a Restricted Stock Agreement dated             , 2005. A copy of the Plan, such rules and such Restricted Stock Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of
Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc.” 
  

	 	(c)	Transferability. Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award and not then vested and unrestricted may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, alienated,
hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, alienate, hypothecate or encumber, or
otherwise dispose of such Common Stock, the Restricted Stock Award shall immediately become null and void. 

	2.	Vesting. 

  

	 	(a)	Time Vesting. Subject to paragraph (b) of this Section 2, the Restricted Stock Award shall vest and become unrestricted in accordance with the following schedule:
«Vesting Schedule» 

  

	 	(b)	Accelerated Vesting. If «Last_Name» continues to perform valuable services for the Corporation from the date of this Agreement until the occurrence of a Change of
Control (as hereinafter defined), the portion of the Restricted Stock Award which has not become vested and unrestricted under Section 2(a) at the date of such event shall immediately vest and become unrestricted with respect to 100% of the
Common Stock subject to this Restricted Stock Award simultaneously with the consummation of the Change of Control. A “Change of Control” shall mean and be determined to have occurred upon any one of the following events: (i) any
person or entity becoming the owner, directly or indirectly, of securities representing 35% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors
other than a person or entity which as of the date hereof owned, directly or indirectly, such amount or more; provided, however, that no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred if immediately subsequent to an acquisition of securities, at
least a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of the directors are owned, directly or indirectly, by the persons who, immediately prior to such
acquisition, were the owners, directly or indirectly, or at least a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, in substantially the same
proportion; or (ii) (A) the Corporation shall be a party to a merger or consolidation in which persons who were the owners, directly or indirectly, or at least a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of
the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of the directors immediately prior thereto do not own, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Corporation
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors immediately subsequent thereto or (B) the Corporation shall sell all or substantially all of its assets (each event in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be referred to herein as a
“Change of Control”). 

  

	 	(c)	Removal of Restriction. Upon the date shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement become vested and unrestricted, such shares shall become freely transferable. As soon
as practicable after such vesting date, the Corporation will notify its transfer agent to remove the restrictions applicable to such vested shares. 

  

	3.	Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the Plan, «Last_Name» shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of
the Corporation with respect to any unvested and restricted shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement; including the right to vote and to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such shares of Common Stock. If any such
dividends or distributions are paid in Common Stock or other property, such Common Stock or property shall be subject to the same restrictions as the shares with respect to which they were paid. 

	4.	Termination of Unvested Restricted Stock Award. If «Last_Name»’s employment with the Corporation is terminated for any reason, the portion of the
Restricted Stock Award which is not vested and unrestricted as of the date of termination shall be forfeited by «Last_Name» and such portion shall be cancelled by the Company. «Last_Name» irrevocably grants to the Corporation
the power of attorney to transfer any unvested shares of Common Stock forfeited to the Corporation and agrees to execute any document required by the Corporation in connection with such forfeiture and transfer. 

  

	5.	Adjustment in Event of Happening of Condition. 

 In the event that there is any change in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Corporation without new consideration to the Corporation (such as by stock dividends or stock split-ups), then the number of unvested and restricted
shares subject to this Restricted Stock Award shall be adjusted in proportion to such change in issued shares. 
 If the outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Corporation shall be combined, or be changed into another kind of stock of the Corporation or into equity securities of another corporation, whether through recapitalization, reorganization, sale, merger, consolidation, etc.
(where such event is not a Change of Control as defined in Section 2(b) above) the Corporation shall cause adequate provision to be made whereby the unvested and unrestricted shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement shall be adjusted so
that the equitable securities received upon vesting shall be the same as if the vesting had occurred immediately prior to such recapitalization, reorganization, sale, merger, consolidation, etc. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a sale of the Company through a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its assets
where all or part of the consideration is cash or property (other than equity securities of another corporation) and where such event is not a Change of Control as defined in Section 2(b) above (a “Transaction”), the Restricted Stock
Award shall be assumed or an award of equivalent value shall be substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the
Restricted Stock Award, then simultaneously with the consummation of the Transaction, «Last_Name» shall fully vest in the Restricted Stock Award and all Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award shall become unrestricted. For
the purposes of this Section 5, the Restricted Stock Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Transaction, the Restricted Stock Award confers the right to receive, for each share of Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award
and unvested immediately prior to the Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Transaction by holders of Common Stock held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were
offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares). 

	6.	No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement shall not be construed as giving «Last_Name» the right to be retained in the employ of the Corporation.

  

	7.	Provisions of Plan. This Restricted Stock Award is granted pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Plan (which is incorporated herein by
reference). In the event a provision of this Agreement conflicts with the Plan, the terms of the Plan will prevail. «Last_Name» acknowledges receiving a copy of the Plan and this Agreement. Any capitalized term not defined herein shall
have the same meaning as in the Plan. 

  

	8.	Withholding of Taxes. The Corporation shall be entitled, if necessary or desirable, to withhold from any amounts due and payable by the Corporation to
«Last_Name» (or to secure payment from «Last_Name» in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax due from the Corporation with respect to any Common Stock which becomes vested and unrestricted under this
Agreement, and the Corporation may defer such issuance until such amounts are paid or withheld. 

  

	9.	Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrator, successors
and assigns. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day and year first
above written.

Participant enters the Plan to be effective as of the first payroll period next following the date the Salary Deferral Agreement is received by the Committee. A Participant’s election shall continue in effect, unless earlier modified by the
Participant, until the Participant separates from Service, or, if earlier, until the Participant ceases to be an Active Participant under the Plan. 
 4.1.3 A Participant may unilaterally modify a Salary Deferral Agreement (either to terminate, increase or decrease the portion of his future Compensation which is subject to salary deferral within the percentage
limits set forth in Section 4.1 of the Adoption Agreement) by providing a written modification of the Salary Deferral Agreement to the Employer. The modification shall become effective as of the first day of January following the date such

 Section 5.         Qualifying Distribution
Events: 
 5.1 Separation from Service. If the Participant separates from Service with the Employer, the vested balance in the
Deferred Compensation Account shall be paid to the Participant by the Employer as provided in Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no distribution shall be made earlier than six months after the date of separation from Service (or, if
earlier,, the date of death) with respect to a Participant who is a key employee (as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code without regard to paragraph (5) thereof) of a corporation the stock in which is traded on an established securities
market or otherwise.

Compensation Account shall be paid to the Participant by the Employer as provided in Section 6. 
 5.3 Death. If the Participant
dies while in Service, the Employer shall pay a benefit to the Participant’s Beneficiary in the amount designated in the Adoption Agreement, Payment of such benefit shall be made by the Employer as provided in Section 6. If a Participant
dies following his separation from Service for any reason, and before all payments under the Plan have been made, the vested balance in the Deferred Compensation Account shall be paid by the Employer to the Participant’s Beneficiary pursuant to
Section 6. 
 5.4 In-Service Withdrawals. If the Employer designates in the Adoption Agreement that in-service withdrawals are
permitted under the Plan, a Participant may elect in the Salary Deferral Agreement to withdraw a designated amount from the Deferred Compensation Account at the specified time or times designated by the Participant in the Salary Deferral Agreement,
and the Participant’s In-Service Account shall be credited with the amount designated for in-service withdrawals. In no event may an in-service withdrawal be made prior , to two years following the establishment of the In-Service Account of the
Participant. 

  

 9 

 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant incurs a Qualifying Distribution Event prior to the date on which the entire balance in the In-Service
Account has been distributed, then the balance in the In-Service Account on the date of the Qualifying Distribution Event shall be distributed to the Participant in the same manner and at the same time as the balance in the Deferred Compensation
Account is distributed under Section 6 and in accordance with the rules and elections in effect under Section 6. 
 5.5
Education Withdrawals. If the Employer designates in the Adoption Agreement that education withdrawals are permitted under the Plan, a Participant may elect in the Salary Deferral Agreement to withdraw a designated amount from the Deferred
Compensation Account at the specified time or times designated by the Participant in the Salary Deferral Agreement, and the Participant’s Education Account shall be credited with the amount designated for in-service withdrawals. If the
Participant designates more than one Student, the Education Account will be divided into a separate Education Account for each Student, and the Participant may designate in the Salary Deferral Agreement the percentage or dollar amount of the
Deferred Compensation Account to be credited to each Education Account. In the absence of a clear designation, all credits made to the Education Account shall be equally allocated to each Education Account. The Employer shall pay to the Participant
the balance in the Education Account with respect to the Student at the time and in the manner designated by the Participant in the Salary Deferral Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant incurs a Qualifying Distribution Event
prior to the date on which the entire balance of the Education Account has been distributed, then the balance in the Education Account on the date of the Qualifying Distribution Event shall be distributed to the Participant in the same manner and at

  

 10 

 
the same time as the Deferred Compensation Account is distributed under Section 6 and in accordance with the rules and elections in effect under
Section 6. 
 5.6 Change in Control. If the Employer designates in the Adoption Agreement that distributions are permitted under
the Plan due to a Change in Control, the vested balance in the Deferred Compensation Account shall be paid to the Participant by the Employer as provided in Section 6 as soon as practicable following a Change in Control regardless of whether
the Participant has separated from Service with the Employer. 
 5.7 Unforeseeable Emergency. A distribution of the Deferred
Compensation Account may be made to a Participant in the event of an Unforeseeable Emergency, subject to the following provisions: 
 5.7.1 A Participant may, at any time prior to his separation from Service for any reason, make application to the Committee to receive a distribution in a lump sum of all or a portion of the vested balance in the Deferred Compensation
Account (determined as of the date the distribution, if any, is made under this Section 5.7) because of an Unforeseeable Emergency. A distribution because of an Unforeseeable Emergency shall not exceed the amount required to satisfy the
Unforeseeable Emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of such distribution, after taking into account the extent to which the Unforeseeable Emergency may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by
insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extend the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). 
 5.7.2 The Participant’s request for a distribution on account of Unforeseeable Emergency must be made in writing to the Committee.
The request must specify the nature of the financial hardship, the total amount requested to be distributed from the Deferred Compensation Account, and the total amount of the actual expense incurred or to be incurred on account of financial
hardship. 
 5.7.3 If a distribution under this Section 5.7 is approved by the Committee, such distribution will be made
as soon as practicable following the date it is approved. The processing of the request shall be completed as soon as practicable from the date on which the Committee receives the properly completed written request for a distribution on account of
an Unforeseeable Emergency. A distribution due to Unforeseeable Emergency shall not affect any deferral election previously made by the Participant. If a Participant’s separation 

  

 11 

 
from Service occurs after a request is approved in accordance with this Section 5.7.3, but prior to distribution of the full amount approved, the
approval of the request shall be automatically null and void and the benefits which the Participant is entitled to receive under the Plan shall be distributed in accordance with the applicable distribution provisions of the Plan. 
 5.7.4 The Committee may from time to time adopt additional policies or rules governing the manner in which such distributions may be made
so that the Plan may be conveniently administered. 
 Section 6.         Qualifying
Distribution Events Payment Options: 
 6.1 Payment Options. The Employer shall designate in the Adoption Agreement the payment
options available upon a Qualifying Distribution Event. The Participant shall elect in the Salary Deferral Agreement the method under which the vested balance in the Deferred Compensation Account shall be distributed from among the designated
payment options. Payment shall be made in the manner elected by the Participant and shall commence as soon as practicable following the Qualifying Distribution Event. If the Participant elects the installment payment option, the payment of each
annual installment shall be made on the anniversary of the date of the first installment payment, and the amount of the annual installment shall be adjusted on such anniversary for credits or debits to the Participant’s account pursuant to
Section 8 of the Plan. Such adjustment shall be made by dividing the balance in the Deferred Compensation Account on such date by the number of annual installments remaining to be paid hereunder; provided that the last annual installment due
under the Plan shall be the entire amount credited to the Participant’s account on the date of payment. In the event the Participant fails to make a valid election of the payment method, the distribution will be made in a single lump sum
payment upon the Qualifying Distribution Event. Notwithstanding any election made by the Participant, the vested balance in the Deferred Compensation Account of the Participant will be distributed in a single lump sum payment if the amount of such
benefit on the date that payment 

  

 12 

 
is to commence does not exceed the maximum amount permitted to be automatically distributed under the regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the
Code. 
 6.2 Subsequent Elections. With the consent of the Committee, a Participant may delay or change the method of payment of the
Deferred Compensation Account subject to the following requirements: 
 6.2.1 The new election may not take effect until at
least 12 months after the date on which the new election is made. 
 6.2.2 If the new election relates to a payment for a
Qualifying Distribution Event other than the death of the Participant, the Participant becoming Disabled, or an Unforeseeable Emergency, the new election must provide for the deferral of the first payment for a period of at least five years from the
date such payment would otherwise have been made. 
 6.2.3 If the new election relates to a payment from the In-Service
Account or Education Account, the new election must be made at least 12 months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment from such account. 
 6.3 Acceleration Prohibited. The acceleration of the time or schedule of any payment due under the Plan is prohibited except as provided in regulations promulgated under Section 409 A of the Code. 
 Section 7.         Vesting: 
 A Participant shall be fully vested in the portion of his Deferred Compensation Account attributable to Salary Deferral Credits, and all income, gains and
losses attributable thereto. A Participant shall become fully vested in the portion of his Deferred Compensation Account attributable to Employer Credits, and income, gains and losses attributable thereto, in accordance with the vesting schedule and
provisions designated by the Employer in the Adoption Agreement. If a Participant’s Deferred Compensation Account is not fully vested upon separation from Service, the portion of the Deferred Compensation Account that is not fully vested shall
thereupon be forfeited. 
  

 13 

 Section 8.         Accounts; Deemed Investment:
Adjustments to Account: 
 8.1 Accounts. The Committee shall establish a book reserve account, entitled the “Deferred
Compensation Account,” on behalf of each Participant. The Committee shall also establish an In-Service Account and Education Account as a part of the Deferred Compensation Account of each Participant, if applicable. The amount-credited to the
Deferred Compensation Account shall be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.3. 
 8.2 Deemed Investments. The Deferred
Compensation Account of a Participant shall be credited with an investment return determined as if the account were invested in one or more investment funds made available by the Committee. The Participant shall elect the investment funds in which
his Deferred Compensation Account shall be deemed to be invested. Such election shall he made in the manner prescribed by the Committee and shall take effect upon the entry of the Participant into the Plan. The investment election of the Participant
shall remain in effect until a new election is made by the Participant. In the event the Participant fails for any reason to make an effective election of the investment return to be credited to his account, the investment return shall be determined
by the Committee. 
 8.3 Adjustments to Deferred Compensation Account. With respect to each Participant who has a Deferred
Compensation Account under the Plan, the amount credited to such account shall be adjusted by the following debits and credits, at the times and in the order stated: 
 8.3.1 The Deferred Compensation Account shall be debited each business day with the total amount of any payments made from such account
since the last preceding business day to him or for his benefit. 
 8.3.2 The Deferred Compensation Account shall be credited
on each Crediting Date with the total amount of any Salary Deferral Credits and Employer Credits to such account since the last preceding Crediting Date. 
  

 14 

 8.3.3 The Deferred Compensation Account shall be credited or debited on each day
securities are traded on a national stock exchange with the amount of deemed investment gain or loss resulting from the performance of the investment funds elected by the Participant in accordance with Section 8.2. The amount of such deemed
investment gain or loss shall be determined by the Committee and such determination shall be final and conclusive upon all concerned. 
 Section 9.         Administration by Committee:

 9.4 Transaction of Business. A majority of the members of the Committee at the time in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business. All resolutions or other actions taken by the Committee at any meeting shall be by vote of a majority of those

all of the members of the Committee. 
 9.5 Committee Records. The Committee shall maintain full and complete records of its
deliberations and decisions. The minutes of its proceedings shall be conclusive proof of the facts of the operation of the Plan.

 9.7 Conflicts of Interest. No individual member of the Committee shall have any right to vote or decide upon any matter relating solely to
himself or to any of his rights or benefits under the Plan (except that such member may sign unanimous written consent to resolutions adopted or other action taken without a meeting), except relating to the terms of his Salary Deferral Agreement.

 9.8 Correction of Errors. The Committee may correct errors and, so far as practicable, may adjust any benefit or credit or payment
accordingly. The Committee may in its discretion waive any notice requirements in the Plan; provided, that a waiver of notice in one or more cases shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of notice in any other case. With respect to any power or
authority which the Committee has discretion to exercise under the Plan, such discretion shall be exercised in a nondiscriminatory manner. 
 9.9 Authority to Interpret Plan. Subject to the claims procedure set forth in Section 16 the Plan Administrator and the Committee shall have the duty and discretionary authority to interpret and construe the provisions of the
Plan and to decide any dispute which 

  

 16 

 
may arise regarding the rights of Participants hereunder, including the discretionary authority to construe the Plan and to make determinations as to
eligibility and benefits under the Plan. Determinations by the Plan Administrator and the Committee shall apply uniformly to all persons similarly situated and shall be binding and conclusive upon all interested persons. 
 9.10 Third Party Advisors. The Committee may engage an attorney, accountant, actuary or any other technical advisor on matters regarding the
operation of the Plan and to perform such other duties as shall be required in connection therewith, and may employ such clerical and related personnel as the Committee shall deem requisite or desirable in carrying out the provisions of the Plan.
The Committee shall from time to time, but no less frequently than annually, review the financial condition of the Plan and determine the financial and liquidity needs of the Plan. The Committee shall communicate such needs to the Employer so that

the proceeds of any insurance policy the premiums for which are paid from the Employer’s own assets), each member of the Committee and each other officer, employee, or director of the Employer to 

  

 17 

 
whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be delegated or allocated, against any unreimbursed or uninsured cost
or expense (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the prior written approval of the Board) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person’s own fraud, bad faith, willful
misconduct or gross negligence. 
 Section 10.         Contractual Liability;
Trust: 
 10.1 Contractual Liability. The obligation of the Employer to make payments hereunder shall constitute a contractual
liability of the Employer to the Participant. Such payments shall be made from the general funds of the Employer, and the Employer shall not be required to establish or maintain any special or separate fund, or otherwise to segregate assets to
assure that such payments shall be made, and the Participant shall not have any interest in any particular assets of the Employer by reason of its obligations hereunder. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payment from the
Employer, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of the Employer. 
 10.2 Trust. If so designated in
Section 2.33 of the Adoption Agreement, the Employer may establish a Trust with the Trustee, pursuant to such terms and conditions as are set forth in the Trust Agreement. The Trust, if and when established, is intended to be treated as a

be so interpreted and administered. 
  

 18

alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be void, nor shall any portion of such benefit be in any manner payable to any assignee, receiver or any one trustee, or be liable for his debts, contracts, liabilities,
engagements or torts. Notwithstanding the 

  

 19 

 
foregoing, in the event that all or any portion of the benefit of a Participant is transferred to the former spouse of the Participant incident to a divorce,
the Committee shall maintain such amount for the benefit of the former spouse until distributed in the manner required by an order of any court having jurisdiction over the divorce, and the former spouse shall be entitled to the same rights as the
Participant with respect to such benefit. 
 12.2 Payments to Minors and Others. If any individual entitled to receive a payment under
the Plan shall be physically, mentally or legally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of such payment, the Committee, upon the receipt of satisfactory evidence of his incapacity and satisfactory evidence that another person or
institution is maintaining him and that no guardian or committee has been appointed for him, may cause any payment otherwise payable to him to be made to such person or institution so maintaining him. Payment to such person or institution shall be
in full satisfaction of all claims by or through the Participant to the extent of the amount thereof. 
 Section 13.
        Beneficiary: 
 The Participant’s beneficiary shall be the person or persons
designated by the Participant on the beneficiary designation form provided by and filed with the Committee or its designee. If the Participant does not designate a beneficiary, the beneficiary shall be his Surviving Spouse. If the Participant does
not designate a beneficiary and has no Surviving Spouse, the beneficiary shall be the Participant’s estate. The designation of a beneficiary may be changed or revoked only by filing a new beneficiary designation form with the Committee or its
designee. If a beneficiary (the “primary beneficiary”) is receiving or is entitled to receive payments under the Plan and dies before receiving all of the payments due him, the balance to which he is entitled shall be paid to the
contingent beneficiary, if any, named in the Participant’s current beneficiary designation form. If there is no contingent beneficiary, the balance shall be 

  

 20 

 
paid to the estate of the primary beneficiary. Any beneficiary may disclaim all or any part of any benefit to which such beneficiary shall be entitled
hereunder by filing a written disclaimer with the Committee before payment of such benefit is to be made. Such a disclaimer shall be made in a form satisfactory to the Committee and shall be irrevocable when filed. Any benefit disclaimed shall be
payable from the Plan in the same manner as if the beneficiary who filed the disclaimer had died on the date of such filing. 
 Section 14.         Amendment and Termination of Plan: 
 The Board
may amend any provision of the Plan or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, that in no event shall such amendment or termination reduce the balance in any Participant’s Deferred Compensation Account as of the date of such amendment or
termination, nor shall any such amendment affect the terms of the Plan relating to the payment of such Deferred Compensation Account. 
 Section 15.         Communication to Participants: 
 The Employer
shall make a copy of the Plan available for inspection by Participants and their beneficiaries during reasonable hours at the principal office of the Employer. 
 Section 16.         Claims Procedure: 
 The
following claims procedure shall apply with respect to the Plan: 
 16.1 Filing of a Claim for Benefits. If a Participant or
beneficiary (the “claimant”) believes that he is entitled to benefits under the Plan which are not being paid to him or which are not being accrued for his benefit, he shall file a written claim therefor with the Plan Administrator. In the
event the Plan Administrator shall be the claimant, all actions which are required to be taken by the Plan Administrator pursuant to this Section 16 shall be taken instead by another member of the Committee designated by the Committee.

  

 21 

 16.2 Notification to Claimant of Decision. Within 90 days after receipt of a claim by the Plan
Administrator (or within 180 days if special circumstances require an extension of time), the Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant of the decision with regard to the claim. In the event of such special circumstances requiring an extension of
time, there shall be furnished to the claimant prior to expiration of the initial 90-day period written notice of the extension, which notice shall set forth the special circumstances and the date by which the decision shall be furnished. If such
claim shall be wholly or partially denied, notice thereof shall be in writing and worded in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, and shall set forth: (i) the specific reason or reasons for the denial; (ii) specific
reference to pertinent provisions of the Plan on which the denial is based; (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is
necessary; and (iv) an explanation of the procedure for review of the denial and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA following an adverse benefit
determination on review. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if the claim relates to a Participant who is Disabled, the Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant of the decision within 45 days (which may be extended for an additional 30 days if
required by special circumstances). 
 16.3 Procedure for Review. Within 60 days following receipt by the claimant of notice denying
his claim, in whole or in part, or, if such notice shall not be given, within 60 days following the latest date on which such notice could have been timely given, the claimant shall appeal denial of the claim by filing a written application for
review with the Committee. Following such request for review, the Committee shall fully and fairly review the decision 

  

 22 

 
denying the claim. Prior to the decision of the Committee, the claimant shall be given an opportunity to review pertinent documents and to submit issues and
comments in writing. 
 16.4 Decision on Review. The decision on review of a claim denied in whole or in part by the Plan
Administrator shall be made in the following manner: 
 16.4.1 Within 60 days following receipt by the Committee of the
request for review (or within 120 days if special circumstances require an extension of time), the Committee shall notify the claimant in writing of its decision with regard to the claim. In the event of such special circumstances requiring an
extension of time, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the claimant prior to the commencement of the extension. If the decision on review is not furnished in a timely manner, the claim shall be deemed denied as of the close of the
initial 60-day period (or the close of the extension period, if applicable). Notwithstanding the forgoing, if the claim relates to a Participant who is Disabled, the Committee shall notify the claimant of the decision within 45 days (which may be
extended for an additional 45 days if required by special circumstances). 
 16.4.2 With respect to a claim that is denied in
whole or in part, the decision on review shall set forth specific reasons for the decision, shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, and shall cite specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the
decision is based. 
 16.4.3 The decision of the Committee shall be final and conclusive. 
 16.5 Action by Authorized Representative of Claimant. All actions set forth in this Section 16 to be taken by the claimant may likewise be
taken by a representative of the claimant duly authorized by him to act in his behalf on such matters. The Plan Administrator and the Committee may require such evidence as either may reasonably deem necessary or advisable of the authority to act of
any such representative. 
 Section 17.         Miscellaneous Provisions:

 17.1 Set off. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the Employer may reduce the amount of any payment otherwise
payable to or on behalf of a Participant hereunder by the amount of any loan, cash advance, extension of credit or other obligation of the 

  

 23 

 
Participant to the Employer that is then due and payable, and the Participant shall be deemed to have consented to such reduction. 
 17.2 Notices. Each Participant who is not in Service and each Beneficiary shall be responsible for furnishing the Committee or its designee with
his current address for the mailing of notices and benefit payments. Any notice required or permitted to be given to such Participant or Beneficiary shall be deemed given if directed to such address and mailed by regular United States mail, first
class, postage prepaid. If any check mailed to such address is returned as undeliverable to the addressee, mailing of checks will be suspended until the Participant or beneficiary furnishes the proper address. This provision shall not be construed
as requiring the mailing of any notice or notification otherwise permitted to be given by posting or by other publication. 
 17.3 Lost
Distributees. A benefit shall be deemed forfeited if the Plan Administrator is unable to locate the Participant or Beneficiary to whom payment is due on or before the fifth anniversary of the date payment is to be made or commence; provided,
that the deemed investment rate of return pursuant to Section 8.2 shall cease to be applied to the Participant’s account following the first anniversary of such date; provided further, however, that such benefit shall be reinstated if a
valid claim is made by or on behalf of the Participant or Beneficiary for all or part of the forfeited benefit. 
 17.4 Reliance on
Data. The Employer, the Committee and the Plan Administrator shall have the right to rely on any data provided by the Participant or by any Beneficiary. Representations of such data shall be binding upon any party seeking to claim a benefit
through a Participant, and the Employer, the Committee and the Plan Administrator shall 

  

 24 

 
have no obligation to inquire into the accuracy of any representation made at any time by a Participant or beneficiary. 
 17.5 Receipt and Release for Payments. Subject to the provisions of Section 17.1, any payment made from the Plan to or with respect to any
Participant or Beneficiary, or pursuant to a disclaimer by a Beneficiary, shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims hereunder against the Plan and the Employer with respect to the Plan. The recipient of any payment from the
Plan may be required by the Committee, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release with respect thereto in such form as shall be acceptable to the Committee. 
 17.6 Headings. The headings and subheadings of the Plan have been inserted for convenience of reference and are to be ignored in any construction
of the provisions hereof. 
 17.7 Continuation of Employment. The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as conferring any
legal or other rights upon any Employee or any persons for continuation of employment, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Employer to discharge any Employee or to deal with him without regard to the effect thereof under the Plan.

 17.8 Merger or Consolidation; Assumption of Plan. No employer-party to the Plan shall consolidate or merge into or with another
corporation or entity, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, partnership, trust or other entity (a “Successor Entity”) unless such Successor Entity shall assume the rights, obligations and liabilities
of the employer-party under the Plan and upon such assumption, the Successor Entity shall become obligated to perform the terms and conditions of the Plan. Nothing herein shall prohibit the assumption of the obligations and liabilities of the
Employer under the Plan by any Successor Entity. 
  

 25 

 17.9 Construction. The Employer shall designate in the Adoption Agreement the state according to
whose laws the provisions of the Plan shall be construed and enforced, except to the extent that such laws are superseded by ERISA.
