NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Principles of Consolidation

In our opinion, the accompanying interim, unaudited, consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2010, our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The results reported in these consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

For interim consolidated financial statement purposes, we provide for accruals under our various employee benefit plans and self-insurance reserves for each three month period based on one quarter of the estimated annual expense.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, finance receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair values as of March 31, 2010. The fair value of our investment securities is disclosed in Note 4, our short and long-term debt in Note 8, and our derivative instruments in Note 13.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying interim, unaudited, consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best information and actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

There were no accounting standards adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2010 that had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after March 31, 2010, are not expected to have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We issue employee share-based awards under the UPS Incentive Compensation Plan, which permits the grant of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance shares, performance units, and management incentive awards to eligible employees. The primary compensation programs offered under the UPS Incentive Compensation Plan include the UPS Management Incentive Awards Program, the UPS Long-Term Incentive Program and the UPS Long-Term Incentive Performance Award program. We also maintain an employee stock purchase plan which allows eligible employees to purchase shares of UPS class A common stock at a discount.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the first quarter of 2010, we granted target restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the UPS Long-Term Incentive Performance Award program to eligible management. Of the total 2010 target award, 90% of the target award will be divided into three substantially equal tranches, one for each calendar year in the three-year award cycle from 2010 to 2012, using performance criteria targets established each year. For 2010, those targets consist of consolidated operating return on invested capital and growth in consolidated revenue. The remaining 10% of the total 2010 target award will be based upon our achievement of adjusted earnings per share for the three-year award cycle compared to a target established at the beginning of the award cycle.

The number of RSUs earned each year will be the target number adjusted for the percentage achievement of performance criteria targets for the year. The percentage of achievement used to determine the RSUs earned may be a percentage less than or more than 100% of the target RSUs for each tranche. Based on the date that the eligible management population and performance targets were approved for the 2010 performance tranches, we determined the award measurement date to be March 18, 2010, and therefore the target RSU grant was valued for stock compensation expense purposes using the closing New York Stock Exchange price of $64.42 on that date.

Awards granted under the UPS Long-Term Incentive program are normally granted during the second quarter of each year, and awards granted under the Management Incentive Awards program are normally granted during the fourth quarter of each year. Compensation expense for share-based awards recognized in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $102 and $105 million pre-tax, respectively.

Auction Rate Securities

At March 31, 2010, we held $250 million in principal value of investments in auction rate securities. Some of these investments take the form of debt securities, and are structured as direct obligations of local governments or agencies (classified as “U.S. state and local municipal securities”). Other auction rate security investments are structured as obligations of asset-backed trusts (classified as “Asset-backed debt securities”), generally all of which are collateralized by student loans and are guaranteed by the U.S. Government or through private insurance. The remaining auction rate securities take the form of preferred stock, and are collateralized by securities issued directly by large corporations or money market securities. Substantially all of our investments in auction rate securities maintain investment-grade ratings of BBB / Baa or higher by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service (“Standard & Poor’s”) and Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), respectively.

During the first quarter of 2008, market auctions, including auctions for substantially all of our auction rate securities portfolio, began to fail due to insufficient buyers. As a result of the persistent failed auctions, and the uncertainty of when these investments could successfully be liquidated at par, we have continued to classify all of our investments in auction rate securities as non-current marketable securities (which are reported in “Other Non-Current Assets” on the consolidated balance sheet), as noted in the table above, as of March 31, 2010. The securities for which auctions have failed will continue to accrue interest and be auctioned at each respective reset date until the auction succeeds, the issuer redeems the securities, or the securities mature. In the first quarter of 2010, auction rate securities with a par value of $17 million were successfully auctioned.

Historically, the par value of the auction rate securities approximated fair value due to the frequent resetting of the interest rate. While we will continue to earn interest on these investments in failed auction rate securities (often at the maximum contractual interest rate), the estimated fair value of the auction rate securities no longer approximates par value due to the lack of liquidity. We estimated the fair value of these securities after considering several factors, including the credit quality of the securities, the rate of interest received since the failed auctions began, the yields of securities similar to the underlying auction rate securities, and the input of broker-dealers in these securities. As a result, we recorded an after-tax unrealized loss of approximately $24 million on these securities as of March 31, 2010 in other comprehensive income ($39 million pre-tax), reflecting the decline in the estimated fair value of these securities.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Investment Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

We have concluded that no other-than-temporary impairment losses existed as of March 31, 2010. In making this determination, we considered the financial condition and prospects of the issuer, the magnitude of the losses compared with the investments’ cost, the length of time the investments have been in an unrealized loss position, the probability that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security, the credit rating of the security, and our ability and intent to hold these investments until the anticipated recovery in market value occurs.

Maturity Information

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of marketable securities and short-term investments at March 31, 2010, by contractual maturity, are shown below (in millions). Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations without prepayment penalties.

Restricted Cash

We had $286 million of restricted cash related to our self-insurance requirements, as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, which is reported in “Other Non-Current Assets” on the consolidated balance sheet.

Fair Value Measurements

Marketable securities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange-traded equity securities and equity index funds, and most U.S. Government debt securities, as these securities all have quoted prices in active markets. Marketable securities utilizing Level 2 inputs include non-auction rate asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, and municipal bonds. These securities are valued using market corroborated pricing, matrix pricing, or other models that utilize observable inputs such as yield curves.

We have classified our auction rate securities portfolio as utilizing Level 3 inputs, as their valuation requires substantial judgment and estimation of factors that are not currently observable in the market due to the lack of trading in the securities. The valuation may be revised in future periods as market conditions evolve. These securities were valued as of March 31, 2010 considering several factors, including the credit quality of the securities, the rate of interest received since the failed auctions began, the yields of securities similar to the underlying auction rate securities, and the input of broker-dealers in these securities.

We maintain holdings in certain investment partnerships that are measured at fair value utilizing Level 3 inputs (classified as “other investments” in the tables below, and as “Other Non-Current Assets” in the

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

consolidated balance sheet). These partnership holdings do not have any quoted prices, nor can they be valued using inputs based on observable market data. These investments are valued internally using a discounted cash flow model based on each partnership’s financial statements and cash flow projections.

The following table presents information about our investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value (in millions).

We continually monitor our aircraft fleet utilization in light of current and projected volume levels, aircraft fuel prices, and other factors. In 2008, we had announced that we were in negotiations with DHL to provide air transportation services for all of DHL’s express, deferred and international package volume within the United States, as well as air transportation services between the United States, Canada and Mexico. In early April 2009, UPS and DHL mutually agreed to terminate further discussions on providing these services. Additionally, our U.S. Domestic Package air delivery volume had declined for several quarters as a result of persistent economic weakness and shifts in product mix from our premium air services to our lower cost ground services. As a result of these factors, the utilization of certain aircraft fleet types had declined and was expected to be lower in the future.

Based on the factors noted above, as well as FAA aging aircraft directives that would require significant future maintenance expenditures, we determined that a triggering event had occurred that required an impairment assessment of our McDonnell-Douglas DC-8-71 and DC-8-73 aircraft fleets. We conducted an impairment analysis as of March 31, 2009, and determined that the carrying amount of these fleets was not recoverable due to the accelerated expected retirement dates of the aircraft. Based on anticipated residual values for the airframes,

engines, and parts, we recognized an impairment charge of $181 million in the first quarter of 2009. This charge is included in the caption “Other expenses” in the Statement of Consolidated Income, and impacted our U.S. Domestic Package segment. The DC-8 fleets were subsequently retired from service. We currently continue to utilize and operate all of our other aircraft fleets.

The impaired airframes, engines, and parts had a net carrying value of $192 million, and were written down to an aggregate fair value of $11 million. The fair values for the impaired airframes, engines, and parts were determined using unobservable inputs (Level 3).

Sources of Credit

We are authorized to borrow up to $10.0 billion under the U.S. commercial paper program we maintain. We had $1.276 billion outstanding under this program as of March 31, 2010, with an average interest rate of 0.12%. As of March 31, 2010, we have classified the entire commercial paper balance as a current liability in our consolidated balance sheet. We also maintain a European commercial paper program under which we are authorized to borrow up to €1.0 billion in a variety of currencies, however there were no amounts outstanding under this program as of March 31, 2010.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We maintain two credit agreements with a consortium of banks. One of these agreements provides revolving credit facilities of $1.5 billion, and expires on April 14, 2011. Interest on any amounts we borrow under this facility would be charged at 90-day LIBOR plus a percentage determined by quotations from Markit Group Ltd. for our 1-year credit default swap spread, subject to certain minimum rates and maximum rates based on our public debt ratings from Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s. If our public debt ratings are A / A2 or above, the minimum applicable margin is 0.50% and the maximum applicable margin is 1.50%; if our public debt ratings are lower than A / A2, the minimum applicable margin is 1.00% and the maximum applicable margin is 2.50%.

The second agreement provides revolving credit facilities of $1.0 billion, and expires on April 19, 2012. Interest on any amounts we borrow under this facility would be charged at 90-day LIBOR plus 15 basis points. At March 31, 2010, there were no outstanding borrowings under either of these facilities.

In addition to these credit facilities, we have an automatically effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC that is available for registered offerings of short or long-term debt securities.

In March 2009, we completed an offering of $1.0 billion of 3.875% senior notes due April 2014, and $1.0 billion of 5.125% senior notes due April 2019. These notes pay interest semiannually, and we may redeem the notes at any time by paying the greater of the principal amount or a “make-whole” amount, plus accrued interest. After pricing and underwriting discounts, we received a total of $1.989 billion in cash proceeds from the offering. The proceeds from the offering were used for general corporate purposes, including the reduction of our outstanding commercial paper balance.

Debt Covenants

Our existing debt instruments and credit facilities do not have cross-default or ratings triggers, however these debt instruments and credit facilities do subject us to certain financial covenants. As of March 31, 2010 and for all prior periods, we have satisfied these financial covenants. These covenants limit the amount of secured indebtedness that we may incur, and limit the amount of attributable debt in sale-leaseback transactions, to 10% of net tangible assets. As of March 31, 2010, 10% of net tangible assets is equivalent to $2.244 billion, however we have no covered sale-leaseback transactions or secured indebtedness outstanding. Additionally, we are required to maintain a minimum net worth, as defined, of $5.0 billion on a quarterly basis. As of March 31, 2010, our net worth, as defined, was equivalent to $12.702 billion. We do not expect these covenants to have a material impact on our financial condition or liquidity.

Fair Value of Debt

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for long-term debt with similar terms and maturities, the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities, is approximately $11.253 and $10.216 billion as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

court’s ruling. In April 2008, the Court decertified the class and vacated the trial scheduled for that month. After decertification, some plaintiffs filed individual lawsuits raising the same allegations as in the underlying class action. These individual lawsuits are in various stages. We have denied any liability with respect to these claims and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in these cases. At this time, we have not determined the amount of any liability that may result from these matters or whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

In another case, Hohider v. UPS, which in July 2007 was certified as a class action in a Pennsylvania federal court, plaintiffs have challenged certain aspects of the Company’s interactive process for assessing requests for reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Plaintiffs purport to represent a class of over 35,000 current and former employees, and seek back-pay, and compensatory and punitive damages, as well as attorneys’ fees. In August 2007, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals granted our petition to hear the appeal of the trial court’s certification order. In July 2009, the Third Circuit issued its decision decertifying the class and remanding the case to the trial court for further proceedings. We have denied any liability with respect to these claims and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this case. At this time, we have not determined the amount of any liability that may result from this matter or whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

UPS and our subsidiary Mail Boxes Etc., Inc. are defendants in various lawsuits brought by franchisees who operate Mail Boxes Etc. centers and The UPS Store locations. These lawsuits relate to the rebranding of Mail Boxes Etc. centers to The UPS Store, The UPS Store business model, the representations made in connection with the rebranding and the sale of The UPS Store franchises, and UPS’s sale of services in the franchisees’ territories. In one of the actions, which is pending in California state court, the court certified a class consisting of all Mail Boxes Etc. branded stores that rebranded to The UPS Store in March 2003. We have denied any liability with respect to these claims and intend to defend ourselves vigorously. At this time, we have not determined the amount of any liability that may result from these matters or whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

In Barber Auto Sales v. UPS, which a federal court in Alabama certified as a class action in September 2009, the plaintiff asserts a breach of contract claim arising from UPS’s assessment of shipping charge corrections when UPS determines that the “dimensional weight” of packages is greater than reported by the shipper. We have denied any liability with respect to these claims and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this case. At this time, we have not determined the amount of any liability that may result from this matter or whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

We are a defendant in various other lawsuits that arose in the normal course of business. We believe that the eventual resolution of these cases will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

2006, and have been under the guidance of the National Mediation Board since January 2008. These talks are currently in recess. In addition, the majority (approximately 3,400) of our ground mechanics who are not employed under agreements with the Teamsters are employed under collective bargaining agreements with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (“IAM”). Our agreement with the IAM runs through July 31, 2014.

We participate in a number of trustee-managed multi-employer pension and health and welfare plans for employees covered under collective bargaining agreements. Several factors could cause us to make significantly higher future contributions to these plans, including unfavorable investment performance, changes in demographics, and increased benefits to participants. At this time, we are unable to determine the amount of additional future contributions, if any, or whether any material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity would result from our participation in these plans.

In January 2008, a class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York alleging price-fixing activities relating to the provision of freight forwarding services. UPS was not named in this case. On July 21, 2009, the plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint naming numerous global freight forwarders as defendants. UPS and UPS Supply Chain Solutions are among the 60 defendants named in the amended complaint. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this case. At this time, we have not determined the amount of any liability that may result from these matters or whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

Other Matters

We received grand jury subpoenas from the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) regarding the DOJ’s investigations into certain pricing practices in the air cargo industry in July 2006, and into certain pricing practices in the freight forwarding industry in December 2007.

In October 2007, June 2008, and February 2009, we received information requests from the European Commission (“Commission”) relating to its investigation of certain pricing practices in the freight forwarding industry, and subsequently responded to each request. On February 9, 2010, UPS received a Statement of Objections by the Commission. This document contains the Commission’s preliminary view with respect to alleged anticompetitive behavior in the freight forwarding industry by 18 freight forwarders, including UPS. Although it alleges anticompetitive behavior, it does not prejudge the Commission’s final decision, as to facts or law (which is subject to appeal to the European courts). The options available to the Commission include taking no action or imposing a monetary fine; the range of any potential action by the Commission is not reasonably estimable. Any decision imposing a fine would be subject to appeal. UPS has responded to the Statement of Objections and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this proceeding.

We also received and responded to related information requests from competition authorities in other jurisdictions.

We are cooperating with each of these inquiries. At this time, we are unable to determine the amount of any liability that may result from these matters or whether any such liability would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

NOTE 10. SHAREOWNERS’ EQUITY

Capital Stock, Additional Paid-In Capital, and Retained Earnings

We maintain two classes of common stock, which are distinguished from each other primarily by their respective voting rights. Class A shares are entitled to 10 votes per share, whereas Class B shares are entitled to one vote per share. Class A shares are primarily held by UPS employees and retirees, and these shares are fully convertible into Class B shares at any time. Class B shares are publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol “UPS”. Class A and B shares both have a $0.01 par value, and as of March 31, 2010, there were 4.6 billion Class A shares and 5.6 billion Class B shares authorized to be issued. Additionally, there are 200 million preferred shares, with a $0.01 par value, authorized to be issued; as of March 31, 2010, no preferred shares had been issued.

NOTE 11. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We report our operations in three segments: U.S. Domestic Package operations, International Package operations, and Supply Chain & Freight operations. Package operations represent our most significant business and are broken down into regional operations around the world. Regional operations managers are responsible for both domestic and export operations within their geographic area.

U.S. Domestic Package

Domestic Package operations include the time-definite delivery of letters, documents, and packages throughout the United States.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

International Package

International Package operations include delivery to more than 200 countries and territories worldwide, including shipments wholly outside the United States, as well as shipments with either origin or distribution outside the United States. Our International Package reporting segment includes the operations of our Europe, Asia, and Americas operating segments.

Supply Chain & Freight

Supply Chain & Freight includes our forwarding and logistics operations, UPS Freight, and other aggregated business units. Our forwarding and logistics business provides services in more than 175 countries and territories worldwide, and includes supply chain design and management, freight distribution, customs brokerage, mail and consulting services. UPS Freight offers a variety of less-than-truckload (“LTL”) and truckload (“TL”) services to customers in North America. Other aggregated business units within this segment include Mail Boxes, Etc. (the franchisor of Mail Boxes, Etc. and The UPS Store) and UPS Capital.

In evaluating financial performance, we focus on operating profit as a segment’s measure of profit or loss. Operating profit is before investment income, interest expense, and income taxes. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of accounting policies included in the financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, with certain expenses allocated between the segments using activity-based costing methods. Unallocated assets are comprised primarily of cash, marketable securities, short-term investments, and investments in limited partnerships.

Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 is as follows (in millions):


	2010		2009
Revenue:
U.S. Domestic Package	$	7,102	$	6,949

NOTE 13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Risk Management Policies

We are exposed to market risk, primarily related to foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices, and interest rates. These exposures are actively monitored by management. To manage the volatility relating to certain of these exposures, we enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments. Our objective is to reduce, where it is deemed appropriate to do so, fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency rates, commodity prices, equity prices, and interest rates. It is our policy and practice to use derivative financial instruments only to the extent necessary to manage exposures. As we use price sensitive instruments to hedge a certain portion of our existing and anticipated transactions, we expect that any loss in value for those instruments generally would be offset by increases in the value of those hedged transactions. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Credit Risk Management

The forward contracts, swaps, and options discussed below contain an element of risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. However, we minimize such risk exposures for these instruments by limiting the counterparties to banks and financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines, and monitoring counterparty credit risk to prevent concentrations of credit risk with any single counterparty. Additionally, the majority of our master agreements for derivatives provide for the early

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

termination of any derivative transactions in the event that either the bank counterparty or UPS receives a credit rating below BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa2 by Moody’s, or ceases to be rated by either firm. We do not have any credit-risk triggers in our outstanding master agreements that require UPS or the bank counterparties to post collateral.

We have not historically incurred, and do not expect to incur in the future, any losses as a result of counterparty default.

Accounting Policy for Derivative Instruments

We recognize all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the derivative, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a cash flow hedge, a fair value hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.

A cash flow hedge refers to hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of AOCI, and reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are recognized in the income statement during the current period.

A fair value hedge refers to hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an existing asset or a liability on the balance sheet that is attributable to a particular risk. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recognized in the income statement during the current period, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item.

A net investment hedge refers to the use of cross currency swaps, forward contracts, or foreign currency denominated debt to hedge portions of our net investments in foreign operations. For hedges that meet the effectiveness requirements, the net gains or losses attributable to changes in spot exchange rates are recorded in the cumulative translation adjustment within other AOCI. The remainder of the change in value of such instruments is recorded in earnings.

Types of Hedges:

Commodity Risk Management:

Currently, the fuel surcharges that we apply to our domestic and international package and LTL services are the primary means of reducing the risk of adverse fuel price changes on our business. We periodically enter into option contracts on energy commodity products to manage the price risk associated with forecasted transactions involving refined fuels, principally jet-A, diesel, and unleaded gasoline. The objective of the hedges is to reduce the variability of cash flows, due to changing fuel prices, associated with the forecasted transactions involving those products. We have designated and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges of the underlying forecasted transactions involving these fuel products and, therefore, the resulting gains and losses from these hedges are recognized as a component of fuel expense or revenue when the underlying transactions occur.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Foreign Currency Risk Management:

To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows from our international package business, we maintain a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. Our most significant foreign currency exposures relate to the Euro, the British Pound Sterling, and the Canadian Dollar. We hedge portions of our forecasted revenue denominated in foreign currencies with option contracts. We have designated and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges of anticipated foreign currency denominated revenue and, therefore, the resulting gains and losses from these hedges are recognized as a component of international package revenue when the underlying sales transactions occur.

We have foreign currency denominated debt obligations and capital lease obligations associated with our aircraft. For some of these debt obligations and leases, we hedge the foreign currency denominated contractual payments using cross-currency interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the foreign currency denominated contractual payments into U.S. Dollar denominated payments. We have designated and account for these swaps as cash flow hedges of the forecasted contractual payments and, therefore, the resulting gains and losses from these hedges are recognized in the income statement when the currency remeasurement gains and losses on the underlying debt obligations and leases are incurred.

Interest Rate Risk Management:

Our indebtedness under our various financing arrangements creates interest rate risk. We use a combination of derivative instruments, including interest rate swaps and cross-currency interest rate swaps, as part of our program to manage the fixed and floating interest rate mix of our total debt portfolio and related overall cost of borrowing. The notional amount, interest payment, and maturity dates of the swaps match the terms of the associated debt being hedged. Interest rate swaps allow us to maintain a target range of floating rate debt within our capital structure.

We have designated and account for interest rate swaps that convert fixed rate interest payments into floating rate interest payments as hedges of the fair value of the associated debt instruments. Therefore, the gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the interest rate swaps and fair value adjustments to the associated debt instruments are recorded to interest expense in the period in which the gains and losses occur. We have designated and account for interest rate swaps that convert floating rate interest payments into fixed rate interest payments as cash flow hedges of the forecasted payment obligations. The gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the interest rate swap are recorded to AOCI.

We periodically hedge the forecasted fixed-coupon interest payments associated with anticipated debt offerings, using forward starting interest rate swaps, interest rate locks, or similar derivatives. These agreements effectively lock a portion of our interest rate exposure between the time the agreement is entered into and the date when the debt offering is completed, thereby mitigating the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. These derivatives are settled commensurate with the issuance of the debt, and any gain or loss upon settlement is amortized as an adjustment to the effective interest yield on the debt.

of interest bearing receivables. These foreign exchange forward contracts are intended to provide an economic offset to foreign currency remeasurement risks for certain assets and liabilities in our balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we recognized $18 and $20 million in gains, respectively, on the fair value of the foreign exchange forward contracts, which were reported in “other operating expenses” in the consolidated income statement, while the impact of the interest rate swap contracts was not material. The foreign exchange forward contracts are settled at the end of each month, and therefore no asset or liability was recorded on the balance sheet at March 31, 2010.

NOTE 14. RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND RELATED EXPENSES

In the first quarter of 2010, we incurred restructuring costs associated with the termination of employees, facility consolidations and other costs directly related to restructuring initiatives. These initiatives have resulted from the integration of acquired companies, as well as restructuring activities associated with cost containment and operational efficiency programs.

Supply Chain & Freight—Germany

In February 2010, we completed the sale of a specialized transportation and express freight business in Germany within our Supply Chain & Freight segment. As part of the sale transaction, we incurred certain costs associated with employee severance payments, other employee benefits, transition services, and leases on operating facilities and equipment. Additionally, we have provided a guarantee for a period of two years for certain employee benefit payments being assumed by the buyer. We recorded a pre-tax loss of $38 million ($35 million after-tax) for this transaction in the first quarter of 2010, which included the costs associated with the sale transaction and the fair value of the guarantee.

U.S. Domestic Package Restructuring

In an effort to improve performance in the U.S. Domestic Package segment, we announced a program to streamline our domestic management structure in January 2010. As part of this restructuring, we are reducing the number of domestic districts and regions in our U.S. small package operation, in order to better align our operations geographically and allow more local decision-making and resources to be deployed for our customers. Effective in April 2010, we reduced our U.S. regions from five to three and our U.S. districts from 46 to 20. The restructuring will eliminate approximately 1,800 management and administrative positions in the U.S. To facilitate this goal, approximately 1,100 employees were offered voluntary severance packages. Other impacted employees received severance benefits and access to support programs based on length of service. We recorded a pre-tax charge of $98 million ($64 million after-tax) in the first quarter of 2010 related to the costs of this program, which reflects the value of voluntary retirement benefits, severance benefits and unvested stock compensation. Throughout the remainder of 2010, we will incur additional costs related to relocation of employees and other restructuring activities, however we believe those costs will be approximately offset by savings from the staffing reductions.

NOTE 15. INCOME TAXES

In the first quarter of 2010, we changed the tax status of a German subsidiary that was taxable in the U.S. and its local jurisdiction to one that is taxed solely in its local jurisdiction. This change was made primarily to allow for more flexibility in funding this subsidiary’s operations with local liquidity sources, improve the cash flow position in the U.S., and help mitigate future currency re-measurement risk. As a result of this change in tax status, we recorded a non-cash charge of $76 million, which resulted primarily from the write-off of related deferred tax assets which will not be realizable following the change in tax status.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, most U.S. state and local jurisdictions, and many non-U.S. jurisdictions. We have substantially resolved all U.S. federal income tax matters for tax years prior to 2003. During the third quarter of 2009, we received a refund of $271 million as a result of the resolution of tax years 1999 through 2002 with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Appeals Office. For the tax years 2003 through 2004, we anticipate concluding the limited number of unagreed issues with the IRS Appeals Office by the end of the second quarter of 2010. Along with the audit for tax years 2005 through 2007, the IRS is currently examining non-income based taxes, including employment and excise taxes, which could lead to proposed assessments. The IRS has not presented an official position with regard to these taxes at this time, and therefore we are not able to determine the technical merit of any potential assessment. We anticipate receipt of the IRS reports on these matters by the end of the second quarter of 2010. We have filed all required U.S. state and local returns reporting the result of the resolution of the U.S. federal income tax audit of the tax years 1999 through 2002. A limited number of U.S. state and local matters are the subject of ongoing audits, administrative appeals or litigation.

Overview

Our U.S. Domestic Package, International Package, and Supply Chain & Freight segments were all impacted by the improving worldwide economic situation in early 2010 compared with 2009, leading to improvements in volume, revenue, and operating profit. Significant portions of the world economy are experiencing improved economic growth, international trade, inventory rebuilding, and retail sales. These trends allow us to leverage our transportation network, and provided for strong operating results in the first quarter of 2010.

In addition to the improved volume and revenue trends, cost containment initiatives and better network efficiencies undertaken over the last several quarters also positively impacted our results. We have continued undertaking initiatives to improve our transportation network. During the first quarter of 2010, we opened the second phase of our Worldport expansion which will allow the use of larger and more fuel-efficient aircraft, and further improve network efficiencies. We opened our new intra-Asia air hub in Shenzhen, China, which will allow us to better serve our customers by reducing time in transit for shipments in the region. We have also streamlined our domestic management structure, sold a non-core supply chain business, and continued to better align our cost structure with current volume levels.

Results of Operations – Segment Review

The results and discussions that follow are reflective of how our executive management monitors the performance of our reporting segments. We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including operating profit, operating margin, pre-tax income, effective tax rate, net income and earnings per share adjusted for the non-comparable items discussed previously. We believe that these adjusted measures provide meaningful information to assist investors and analysts in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. We believe these adjusted financial measures are important indicators of our results of operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and provide a better baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Volume

In the first quarter of 2010, our overall volume increased as improvements in industrial production and retail sales increased overall demand in the U.S. small package market. Overall average daily package volume increased slightly, as ground volume increased while air volume declined. Among our air products, letter volume declined largely due to weakness in the financial and other service industries. However, our air package volume performed relatively better as inventory rebuilding in the manufacturing and retailing sectors impacted volume. Within our ground product, basic and residential volume continued to increase faster than commercial ground volume, however the difference in the growth rates narrowed when compared with previous quarters, reflecting the impact of the strengthening economy.

Revenue Per Piece

Overall revenue per piece increased for our ground and air products in 2010 at the strongest rate since the third quarter of 2008, due to a combination of base price increases and fuel surcharge rate changes. The revenue per piece increase for our air products improved due to higher average package weights, but was negatively impacted by a mix shift toward lower yielding products such as Next Day Air Saver and Three Day Select. The increase in revenue per piece for our ground products was adversely affected by slightly lower average package weights and a mix shift towards lower yielding products.

Revenue per piece for our ground and air products was also impacted by an increase in base rates that took effect on January 4, 2010. We increased the base rates 6.9% on UPS Next Day Air, UPS 2nd Day Air, and UPS 3 Day Select, and 4.9% on UPS Ground. Other pricing changes included an increase in the residential surcharge, and an increase in the delivery area surcharge on both residential and commercial services to certain ZIP codes. These rate changes are customary and occur on an annual basis.

Fuel Surcharges

UPS applies a fuel surcharge on our domestic air and ground services. The air fuel surcharge is based on the U.S. Energy Department’s Gulf Coast spot price for a gallon of kerosene-type jet fuel, while the ground fuel surcharge is based on the U.S. Energy Department’s On-Highway Diesel Fuel Price. Based on published rates, the average fuel surcharge for domestic air and ground products was as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
	2010		2009		%
Next Day Air / Deferred	7.0	%	3.7	%	3.3	%
Ground	5.2	%	3.6	%	1.6	%

On January 4, 2010, we modified the fuel surcharge on air services by reducing the index used to determine the fuel surcharge by 2%. Additionally, we adjusted the fuel surcharge tables to better align the surcharges between our air and ground products, and to reduce the volatility of air surcharges when fuel prices fluctuate. The 2010 increase in the air and ground fuel surcharges was due to the significant increase in jet and diesel fuel prices, but partially offset by the reduction in the index on the air surcharge. Total domestic fuel surcharge revenue, net of the impact of hedging, increased by $49 million in 2010, primarily due to the higher fuel surcharge rates discussed above, as well as the increase in volume for our ground products.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operating Profit and Margin

Operating profit in 2010 was positively impacted by the overall economic growth in the U.S., which drove increased volume and yields. Combined with increased network efficiencies and cost containment initiatives, this resulted in strong operating leverage. Network efficiencies have been gained over the last several quarters, as we adjusted our air and ground networks to better match volume levels, and utilized our expanded Worldport facility to utilize larger aircraft as well as increase package sorting efficiency. These changes have resulted in reductions in aircraft block hours, labor hours in our operations, and the overall numbers of employees, resulting in cost savings. The combination of these factors led to an increase in the operating margin in 2010 compared with the corresponding period in 2009. Operating profit was negatively impacted by lower fuel hedging gains in 2010 compared with 2009.

Volume

Export volume increased, primarily due to strong growth in Asia, where volume growth exceeded 20%. The Europe and U.S. export lanes also had strong volume growth compared with the prior year, as the worldwide economy and world trade began to improve. In 2010, we experienced an overall lengthening of trade lanes, as inter-regional trade increased (including 37% volume growth in our Asia-to-Europe export lane), leading to relatively stronger growth for our higher yielding products.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Non-U.S. domestic volume increased for the quarter, largely due to the acquisition of Unsped Paket Servisi San ve Ticaret A.S. (“Unsped”) in Turkey in the third quarter of 2009. Excluding the acquisition of Unsped, domestic volume growth increased 13%, powered by strength in core European markets.

Revenue Per Piece

Export revenue per piece increased, largely due to the favorable impact of currency exchange rates, higher fuel surcharge rates, and product mix, as well as base rate increases. Currency-adjusted export revenue per piece increased 2.9% for 2010. Domestic revenue per piece increased slightly, primarily due to favorable currency exchange rate fluctuations, as well as the impact of higher fuel surcharge rates. Domestic revenue per piece declined 7.5% on a currency-adjusted basis, largely due to the impact of product mix changes and lower-yielding domestic packages from the Unsped acquisition. Total average revenue per piece decreased 4.4% for the year on a currency-adjusted basis, largely due to the greater volume growth among lower-yielding domestic products.

On January 4, 2010, we increased the base rates 6.9% for international shipments originating in the United States (Worldwide Express, Worldwide Express Plus, UPS Worldwide Expedited and UPS International Standard service). Rate changes for shipments originating outside the U.S. were made throughout the year and varied by geographic market.

Fuel Surcharges

On January 4, 2010, we modified the fuel surcharge on certain U.S.-related international air services by reducing the index used to determine the fuel surcharge by 2%. Additionally, we adjusted the fuel surcharge tables to reduce the volatility of air surcharges when fuel prices fluctuate. The fuel surcharges for products originating outside the United States continue to be indexed to fuel prices in the international region where the shipment takes place. Total international fuel surcharge revenue increased by $65 million in 2010, due to higher fuel surcharge rates caused by increased fuel prices as well as an increase in international air volume.

Operating Profit and Margin

The increase in operating profit for the quarter was primarily driven by volume increases in all major regions and trade lanes worldwide. Additionally, network efficiencies and cost containment initiatives created operating leverage which contributed to the increase in operating profits. These factors led to an increase in the operating margin in 2010 compared with the corresponding period in 2009.

Revenue

Forwarding and logistics revenue increased in the first quarter of 2010, primarily due to growth in the demand for forwarding as a result of the expansion of the global economy, inventory rebuilding and international trade. International air freight and ocean freight experienced solid revenue growth, and were impacted by higher volumes, fuel surcharges, and other accessorial charges. In our logistics products, we experienced growth in mail services, distribution and post-sales services revenue, with solid growth being achieved in the healthcare and technology sectors.

Freight revenue increased, primarily due to higher fuel surcharge rates and a base rate increase that took effect in January 2010. Average LTL shipments per day and weight per shipment declined modestly, as market share gains were more than offset by the overall decline in the LTL market. LTL revenue per hundredweight increased, primarily as a result of the higher fuel surcharge rates, as total fuel surcharge revenue increased $24 million for the quarter primarily resulting from higher diesel fuel prices. An increase in base prices took effect on January 4, 2010, as UPS Freight increased minimum charge, LTL and TL rates an average of 5.7%, covering non-contractual shipments in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

The other businesses within Supply Chain & Freight experienced an increase in revenue. A primary driver of this increase was our contract to provide air transportation services to the U.S. Postal Service.

Operating Profit and Margin

Operating profit in the forwarding unit increased slightly in the first quarter of 2010, largely due to tonnage increases and lessening margin pressures. During the latter half of 2009, capacity constraints led to rapidly escalating rates on air freight which could not be passed on to customers, resulting in a negative impact to our operating profit and margin. This situation began to improve in the first quarter of 2010, as capacity constraints lessened slightly and we were able to implement revenue management plans which better matched customer pricing with market conditions. The operating profit for our logistics unit strengthened, as margins in our distribution, post-sales services, and mail units expanded.

Our UPS Freight unit incurred an operating loss in the first quarter of 2010, however these results were an improvement compared with the prior year, due to better productivity, increases in base pricing, and the impact of fuel. Productivity metrics increased, including increases in pickup and delivery stops per hour and linehaul utilization. The comparison between 2010 and 2009 operating results was positively impacted by the price of fuel, as surcharge revenue increased at a faster pace than the increase in fuel expense.

The combined operating income for all of our other businesses in this segment increased during the quarter primarily due to improved results at our financial services business unit.

Compensation and Benefits

The increase in compensation and benefits expense during 2010 compared with 2009 was impacted by several items. A large component of this increase was related to benefits expense, which increased primarily due to higher employee health and welfare costs and pension expense. Employee health and welfare program costs were impacted by higher union contribution rates and lower employee turnover in the union workforce. Pension

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

expense increases resulted from higher union contribution rates for multi-employer pension plans, combined with increased service and interest costs, and the amortization of actuarial losses for company-sponsored plans. The interest cost grew due to continued service accruals, while the actuarial losses were primarily due to the negative asset returns experienced in 2008.

These cost increases were partially offset by reductions in certain employee payroll costs, as union labor hours declined, and management payroll decreased as a result of a reduction in the total number of management employees through attrition combined with a wage freeze.

Repairs and Maintenance

Repairs and maintenance expense declined in 2010, largely due to reduced building and facility repairs and maintenance.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 2010, primarily as a result of higher depreciation expense on equipment and facilities, as certain Worldport assets added in the recent expansion began to be depreciated. Amortization of intangible assets also increased as a result of new intangibles recognized related to the Unsped acquisition in Turkey in 2009, as well as corporate sponsorships entered into in 2010.

Purchased Transportation

The increase in purchased transportation in 2010 was driven by a combination of higher volume in our international package and forwarding businesses, currency fluctuations, and increased fuel surcharge rates charged to us by third-party carriers as a result of higher fuel prices.

Fuel

The increase in fuel expense in 2010 was impacted by higher prices for jet-A fuel, diesel, and unleaded gasoline, but was slightly offset by lower usage of these products in our operations.

Other Occupancy

The decrease in other occupancy expense in 2010 was primarily caused by lower natural gas costs, due to commodity price fluctuations.

Other Expenses

The decline in other expenses in the first quarter of 2010 was largely due to cost containment programs, as we experienced reductions in telecom expenses, employee expense reimbursements, office supplies, and printing costs. We also incurred lower expense associated with customer claims for lost or damaged packages, and lower bad debt expense.

Investment Income and Interest Expense (in millions):
Investment Income (Loss)	$	(4	)	$	13		N/A
Interest Expense	$	(85	)	$	(82	)	3.7	%

Investment Income

The decline in investment income in 2010 was largely due to a significantly lower yield earned on our invested assets as a result of declines in short-term interest rates in the United States, a loss on the fair value adjustments of certain investment partnerships, and a loss realized on the sale of investment securities. These factors were partially offset by a higher average balance of interest-earning investments in our portfolio in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the same period of 2009.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense was largely due to lower capitalized interest, due to the recent completion of several large construction projects, including our Worldport expansion. This was partially offset by a lower average balance of outstanding debt in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the same period of 2009.

Effective Tax Rate		44.1	%		38.2	%
Adjusted Effective Tax Rate		35.0	%		37.7	%

Income tax expense increased primarily due to higher pre-tax income. The increase in our effective tax rate in 2010 compared with 2009 was primarily due to the change in the tax filing status of a German subsidiary, and because we are currently unable to recognize the entire potential tax benefit of tax loss carryforwards generated from the sale of a Supply Chain & Freight business in Germany. Our first quarter 2009 income tax provision increased as a result of providing a valuation allowance of $14 million against certain deferred tax assets in our International Package business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash From Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to $1.549 billion in the first three months of 2010 from $2.196 billion during the same period of 2009. The decrease in operating cash flow was impacted by higher contributions to our company-sponsored pension plans.

(a)	Represents depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on derivative transactions and foreign exchange, deferred income taxes, provisions for uncollectible accounts, pension and postretirement benefit expense, stock compensation expense, impairment charges, and other non-cash items.

Contributions to our company-sponsored pension plans have varied based primarily on whether any minimum funding requirements are present for individual pension plans. The increase in contributions in 2010 was largely due to minimum funding requirements related to the UPS IBT Pension Plan. As discussed in Note 6 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, we expect to contribute $405 million to our company-sponsored pension plans over the remainder of 2010.

Operating cash flow increased in 2010 due to higher net income. Partially offsetting this were changes in our working capital position, as the collection of accounts receivable had a larger impact in the first three months of 2009 compared with the same period in 2010. Accounts receivable normally decline in the first quarter each year, due to the collection of receivables generated in the seasonally strong fourth quarter, however the decline was larger in the first quarter of 2009 as a result of the decrease in revenue among all three of our business segments. Cash flow also benefits in the first quarter of each year as a result of the lack of any required U.S. Federal estimated income tax payments.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities

Our primary uses of cash flows for investing activities were for capital expenditures, as follows (amounts in millions):

Net (increase) decrease in finance receivables	$	—		$	60
Net (purchases) sales of marketable securities	$	24		$	(102	)
Other sources (uses) of cash from investing activities	$	9		$	28

We have commitments for the purchase of aircraft, vehicles, equipment and real estate to provide for the replacement of existing capacity and anticipated future growth. We generally fund our capital expenditures with our cash from operations. In 2010, capital spending on buildings and facilities declined, as a result of completion of the most recent expansion of our Worldport facility in Louisville, KY and our intra-Asia hub in Shenzhen, China. Future capital spending for anticipated growth and replacement assets will depend on a variety of factors, including economic and industry conditions.

The net change in finance receivables is primarily due to customer paydowns and new loan origination activity, primarily in our commercial lending, asset-based lending and leasing portfolios. The purchases and sales of marketable securities are largely determined by liquidity needs, and will therefore fluctuate from period to period. Other investing activities include the cash settlement of derivative contracts used in our energy and currency hedging programs, the timing of aircraft purchase contract deposits on our Boeing 767-300 and Boeing 747-400 aircraft orders, and changes in restricted cash balances.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Financing Activities

Our primary uses of cash flows for financing activities are to repurchase shares, pay cash dividends, and repay debt principal, as follows (amounts in millions, except per share data):

Total capitalization	$	17,567		$	18,863
Debt to Total Capitalization %		56.7	%		64.1	%

As a result of the uncertain economic environment, we have slowed our share repurchase activity during the 2009 and 2010 periods. We currently intend to repurchase shares in 2010 at a rate that will at least offset the dilution from our stock compensation programs. As of March 31, 2010, we had $5.741 billion of our existing share repurchase authorization remaining.

The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on various factors, including our net income, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects, and other relevant factors. We increased our quarterly cash dividend payment to $0.47 per share in the first quarter of 2010, compared with the previous $0.45 quarterly dividend rate. We expect to continue the practice of paying regular cash dividends.

Issuances of debt in 2010 consisted primarily of commercial paper, while in 2009 issuances consisted primarily of commercial paper and an offering of fixed rate senior notes (discussed further below). Repayments of debt consisted primarily of paydowns of commercial paper, scheduled principal payments on our capitalized lease obligations and early redemptions of certain tranches of UPS Notes. We consider the overall fixed and floating interest rate mix of our portfolio and the related overall cost of borrowing when planning for future issuances and non-scheduled repayments of debt.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The cash outflows in other financing activities primarily relate to hedging activities. In conjunction with the senior fixed rate debt offering in the first quarter of 2009, we settled several interest rate derivatives that were designated as hedges of these debt offerings, which resulted in a cash outflow of $243 million.

Sources of Credit

We are authorized to borrow up to $10.0 billion under our U.S. commercial paper program. We had $1.276 billion outstanding under this program as of March 31, 2010, with an average interest rate of 0.12%. All of this commercial paper was classified as a current liability as of March 31, 2010. We also maintain a European commercial paper program under which we are authorized to borrow up to €1.0 billion in a variety of currencies, however no amounts were outstanding under this program as of March 31, 2010.

Our Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s short-term credit ratings are P-1 and A-1+, respectively. Our Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s long-term credit ratings are Aa3 and AA-, respectively. We have a stable outlook from Moody’s, and a negative outlook from Standard & Poor’s.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except as described in this quarterly report, the nature and amounts of our payment obligations under our debt, capital and operating lease agreements, purchase commitments, and other liabilities as of March 31, 2010 have not materially changed from those at December 31, 2009, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

We believe that funds from operations and borrowing programs will provide adequate sources of liquidity and capital resources to meet our expected long-term needs for the operation of our business, including anticipated capital expenditures, such as commitments for aircraft purchases, for the foreseeable future.

Guarantees and Other Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have guarantees or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including variable interest entities, which we believe could have a material impact on our financial condition or liquidity.

Contingencies

We are a defendant in a number of lawsuits filed in state and federal courts containing various class-action allegations under state wage-and-hour laws. In one of these cases, Marlo v. UPS, which was certified as a class action in a California federal court in September 2004, plaintiffs allege that they improperly were denied overtime, and seek penalties for missed meal and rest periods, and interest and attorneys’ fees. Plaintiffs purport to represent a class of 1,300 full-time supervisors. In August 2005, the court granted summary judgment in favor of UPS on all claims, and plaintiffs appealed the ruling. In October 2007, the appeals court reversed the lower court’s ruling. In April 2008, the Court decertified the class and vacated the trial scheduled for that month. After decertification, some plaintiffs filed individual lawsuits raising the same allegations as in the underlying class action. These individual lawsuits are in various stages. We have denied any liability with respect to these claims and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in these cases. At this time, we have not determined the amount of any liability that may result from these matters or whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As of December 31, 2009, we had approximately 254,000 employees employed under a national master agreement and various supplemental agreements with local unions affiliated with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (“Teamsters”). These agreements run through July 31, 2013. We have approximately 2,800 pilots who are employed under a collective bargaining agreement with the Independent Pilots Association (“IPA”), which becomes amendable at the end of 2011. Beginning May 23, 2010, we will begin the process of furloughing 170 of our airline pilots. Any additional furloughs will be phased in based on prevailing economic conditions. Our airline mechanics are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters Local 2727, which became amendable in November 2006. We began formal negotiations with Teamsters Local 2727 in October 2006, and have been under the guidance of the National Mediation Board since January 2008. These talks are currently in recess. In addition, the majority (approximately 3,400) of our ground mechanics who are not employed under agreements with the Teamsters are employed under collective bargaining agreements with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (“IAM”). Our agreement with the IAM runs through July 31, 2014.

industry, and subsequently responded to each request. On February 9, 2010, UPS received a Statement of Objections by the Commission. This document contains the Commission’s preliminary view with respect to alleged anticompetitive behavior in the freight forwarding industry by 18 freight forwarders, including UPS. Although it alleges anticompetitive behavior, it does not prejudge the Commission’s final decision, as to facts or law (which is subject to appeal to the European courts). The options available to the Commission include taking no action or imposing a monetary fine; the range of any potential action by the Commission is not reasonably estimable. Any decision imposing a fine would be subject to appeal. UPS has responded to the Statement of Objections and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this proceeding.

We also received and responded to related information requests from competition authorities in other jurisdictions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

There were no accounting standards adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2010 that had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after March 31, 2010, are not expected to have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, and certain commodity prices. This market risk arises in the normal course of business, as we do not engage in speculative trading activities. In order to manage the risk arising from these exposures, we utilize a variety of foreign exchange, interest rate, equity and commodity forward contracts, options, and swaps.

The total fair value asset (liability) of our derivative financial instruments is summarized in the following table (in millions):


	March 31, 2010		December 31, 2009
	March 31, 2010		December 31, 2009
Energy Derivatives	$	—	$	—
Currency Derivatives		5		12
Interest Rate Derivatives		100		59

	$	105	$	71

Our market risks, hedging strategies, and financial instrument positions at March 31, 2010 have not materially changed from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The forward contracts, swaps, and options previously discussed contain an element of risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. However, we minimize such risk exposures for these instruments by limiting the counterparties to banks and financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines. We do not expect to incur any losses as a result of counterparty default.

The information concerning market risk under the caption “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” on pages 49-50 of our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, is hereby incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management to allow their timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

In the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that the related Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by the Borrower to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing for such Revolving Credit Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing when such Revolving Credit Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.

(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it as part of any Revolving Credit Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under any Notes shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding , in the case of each Lender and the Agent, taxes imposed on its net income, as well as any branch profit taxes imposed by the

United States of America or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which such Lender is located, franchise taxes measured by income imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its net income, and franchise taxes measured by income imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under any Notes being hereinafter referred to as “ Taxes ”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Lender or the Agent (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Notes hereinafter referred to as “ Other Taxes ”).

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.14) paid by such Lender or the Agent or any of its Affiliates (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender, the Agent or such Affiliate (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If no Taxes are payable in respect of any payment hereunder or under any Notes, the Borrower will furnish to the Agent, at such address, a certificate from each appropriate taxing authority, or an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Agent, in either case stating that such payment is exempt from or not subject to Taxes.

(e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide each of the Agent and the Borrower with Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or (in the case of a Lender that has certified in writing to the Agent that it is not a “bank” as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code) Form W-8 (and, if such Non-U.S. Lender delivers a Form W-8, a certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within

the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code)),as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. Each such Lender shall provide the Agent and the Borrower with a new form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8, as appropriate, if and at such time as the previously provided form becomes invalid. If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement or at any other time indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from “Taxes” as defined in Section 2.14(a).

(f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form described in subsection (e) of this Section 2.14 (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e) of this Section 2.14), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.14 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided , however , that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes.

(g) Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement, in the event that a Lender that originally provided such form as may be required under subsection (e) of this Section 2.14 thereafter ceases to qualify for complete exemption from United States withholding tax, such Lender, with the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, may assign its interest under this Agreement to any assignee and such assignee shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Section 2.14 as the assignor provided that the rate of United States withholding tax applicable to such assignee shall not exceed the rate then applicable to the assignor.

(h) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.14 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Eurocurrency Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(i) If any Lender or Agent, as the case may be, determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes for which payment has been made pursuant to this Section 2.14, which refund in the good faith judgment of such Lender or Agent, as the case may be (and without any obligation to disclose its tax records) is allocable to such payment made under this Section 2.14, the amount of such refund (together with any interest received thereon and reduced by reasonable costs incurred in obtaining such refund) promptly shall be paid to the Borrower to the extent payment has been made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14, provided , however , if the jurisdiction which refunded such Taxes or Other Taxes subsequently asserts such Taxes or Other Taxes are due, then the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as

the case may be, pursuant to Section 2.14(c). Each Lender and Agent shall take such action, as the Borrower may reasonably request, in order to apply for and obtain any refund of such amounts the Borrower reasonably determines to be appropriate under the circumstances; provided that any such actions shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 2.14(i) shall require any Lender to make available to the Borrower its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems in good faith to be confidential).

SECTION 2.15. Sharing of Payments, Etc . If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.14 or 8.04(d)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Revolving Credit Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lenders) such participations in the Revolving Credit Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided , however , that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.16. Extensions of Termination Date and Final Maturity Date . (a) No earlier than 60 days and no later than 45 days prior to the Termination Date then in effect, the Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent, request that the Termination Date then in effect be extended for a period of 364 days. Such request shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower (subject to the provisions of subsection (b) to this Section 2.16). The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request. If a Lender agrees, in its individual and sole discretion, to so extend its Commitment (an “ Extending Lender ”), it shall deliver to the Agent a written notice of its agreement to do so no earlier than 30 days and no later than 20 days prior to such Termination Date and the Agent shall notify the Borrower of such Extending Lender’s agreement to extend its Commitment no later than 15 days prior to such Termination Date. The Commitment of any Lender that fails to accept or respond to the Borrower’s request for extension of such Termination Date (a “ Declining Lender ”) shall be terminated on such Termination Date (without regard to any extension by other Lenders) and on such Termination Date the Borrower shall pay in full the principal amount of all Advances owing to such Declining Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of such payment of principal and all other amounts payable to such Declining Lender under this Agreement. The Agent shall promptly notify each Extending Lender of the aggregate Commitments of the Declining Lenders. The Extending Lenders, or any of them, may offer to increase their respective Commitments by an aggregate amount up to the aggregate amount of the Declining Lenders’ Commitments and any such Extending Lender shall deliver to the Agent a notice of its offer to so increase its Commitment no later than 15 days prior to such Termination Date. To the extent of any shortfall in the aggregate amount of extended Commitments, the Borrower shall have the right to require

any Declining Lender, to assign in full its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees designated by the Borrower and acceptable to the Agent, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, that agree to accept all of such rights and obligations (each a “ Replacement Lender ”), provided that (i) such increase and/or such assignment is otherwise in compliance with Section 8.07, (ii) such Declining Lender receives payment in full of the principal amount of all Advances owing to such Declining Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of such payment of principal and all other amounts payable to such Declining Lender under this Agreement and (iii) any such increase shall be effective on the Termination Date in effect at the time the Borrower requests such extension and any such assignment shall be effective on the date specified by the Borrower and agreed to by the Replacement Lender and the Agent. If, but only if, Extending Lenders and Replacement Lenders have agreed to provide Commitments in an aggregate amount greater than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments outstanding 30 days prior to the Termination Date in effect at the time the Borrower requests such extension, the Termination Date shall be extended by 364 days for such Extending Lenders and Replacement Lenders, subject, however, to the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 2.16.

(b) On the Termination Date in effect at any time, the Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent, request that the Final Maturity Date be a date occurring up to the first anniversary of such Termination Date. Such request shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request. Subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.02 as of such Termination Date and the payment by the Borrower to the Agent, for the account of each Lender, such Lender’s pro rata share of an extension fee in an amount equal to 1.00% on the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding, the Final Maturity Date shall be, effective as of such Termination Date, such date as the Borrower shall request pursuant to this subsection (b) of this Section 2.16. In the event that the Borrower shall request that the Final Maturity Date be a date occurring up to the first anniversary of such Termination Date, and the Final Maturity Date shall be so extended as provided in this subsection (b) of this Section 2.16, the right of the Borrower to request an extension of the Termination Date pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.16 shall automatically terminate and any extension of the Termination Date in effect at the time such request is made which would otherwise occur as provided in subsection (a) of this Section 2.16 shall automatically be cancelled. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of any such extension of the Final Maturity Date and any such cancellation of an extension of the Termination Date.

SECTION 2.17. Substitution of Lender . If the obligation of any Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or Competitive Bid Advances has been suspended pursuant to Section 2.12, any Lender has demanded compensation or the Borrower is otherwise required to pay additional amounts under Section 2.11 or 2.14, such Lender is a Defaulting Lender or such Lender is or becomes insolvent, the Borrower shall have the right to seek a substitute lender or lenders who qualify as Eligible Assignees to assume, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.07, the Commitment of such Lender and to purchase the Revolving Credit Advances or Competitive Bid Advances made by such Lender (without recourse to or warranty by such Lender).

SECTION 2.18. Evidence of Debt . (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the

Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Revolving Credit Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Revolving Credit Advances. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a Revolving Credit Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Revolving Credit Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender.

(b) The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(g) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided , however , that the failure of the Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.19. Defaulting Lenders . Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) to the extent permitted by applicable law, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, any prepayment of the Revolving Credit Advances shall, if the Borrower so directs at the time of making such prepayment, be applied to the Revolving Credit Advances of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Revolving Credit Advances, outstanding; (b) such Defaulting Lender’s unused Commitment shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the unused commitment fee payable to Lenders pursuant to Section 2.04(a) in respect of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender; and (c) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Advances as at any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Advances of such Defaulting Lender for purposes of determining the aggregate amount of the total Commitments available to be drawn by the Borrower. No Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.19, performance by the Borrower or any Lender of its obligations hereunder shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of any failure by a Defaulting Lender to fund or the operation of this Section 2.19. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.19 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower, the Agent or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Defaulted Advance.

COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER

SECTION 5.01. Affirmative Covenants . So long as any Advance shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder, the Borrower will, and will cause each of its Material Subsidiaries to, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing:

(a) Compliance with Laws, Etc . Comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority, whether now in effect or hereafter enacted, such compliance to include, without limitation, compliance with ERISA, applicable environmental laws and the Patriot Act, except for such noncompliance as would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Payment of Taxes, Etc . Pay and discharge promptly when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default; provided , however , that such payment and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be

contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to pay such tax, assessment, charge or levy would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in respect of taxes, assessments, charges and levies are, in the opinion of the Borrower, adequate.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.06, the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

Furthermore, the Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment

Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail or telecopier address to which a Notice may be sent by electronic transmission (including by electronic communication) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Agent has on record an effective e-mail or telecopier address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail or telecopier address.

SECTION 8.03. No Waiver; Remedies . No failure on the part of any Lender or the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 8.04. Costs and Expenses . (a) The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, modification and amendment of this Agreement, any Notes and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, (i) all syndication (including printing, distribution and bank meetings) expenses and (ii) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent with respect thereto. The Borrower further agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and the Lenders, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, any Notes and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent and each Lender in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 8.04(a).

(b) The Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, each Arranger, each Lender, each of their Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “ Indemnified Party ”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses (other than loss of profits), damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (excluding any taxes and including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnified Party in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not such Indemnified Party shall be designated a party thereto), imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnified Party in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Notes, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Commitments, the use of proceeds, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto (collectively, the “ Indemnified Matters ”); provided , however , the Borrower shall have no

obligation to an Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters directly caused by or directly resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower also agrees not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against the Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to any Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances.

(c) Promptly after receipt by any Indemnified Party of written notice of any Indemnified Matter in respect of which indemnity may be sought by it under this Section 8.04, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Borrower thereof; provided that failure to give any such notice hereunder shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower under this Section 8.04. Thereafter, such Indemnified Party and the Borrower shall consult, to the extent appropriate, with a view to minimizing the cost to the Borrower of its obligations hereunder. In case any such Indemnified Party receives written notice of any Indemnified Matter in respect of which indemnity may be sought by it hereunder and it notifies the Borrower thereof, the Borrower shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof, and to the extent that the Borrower may elect by notice delivered to such Indemnified Party promptly after receiving aforesaid notice from such Indemnified Party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory at all times to such Indemnified Party and at the Borrower’s expense; provided , that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Borrower to represent such Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest or (ii) the parties against whom any Indemnified Matter arises include both such Indemnified Party and the Borrower and such Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Parties which are different from or additional to those available to the Borrower and may conflict therewith, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such Indemnified Matter on behalf of such Indemnified Party at the Borrower’s expense. Upon receipt of notice from the Borrower to such Indemnified Party of the Borrower’s election so to assume the defense of such Indemnified Matter, and approval of counsel by such Indemnified Party, the Borrower shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) such Indemnified Party shall have employed counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence, (ii) the Borrower shall not have employed within a reasonable time and continued to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to represent such Indemnified Party, or (iii) the Borrower shall have approved the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Party at the Borrower’s expense. The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Borrower will not settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Borrower under this Agreement, whether or not such Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding, without such Indemnified Party’s written consent,

which shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement (x) does not require any performance by or adverse admission of such Indemnified Party, (y) does not adversely affect its business and (z) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding.

(d) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance, LIBO Rate Advance or Local Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.05(b), 2.08(c) or (d), 2.10 or 2.12, acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.07(a), the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender within five Business Days of such payment (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. If the amount of the Committed Currency purchased by any Lender in the case of a Conversion or exchange of Advances in the case of Section 2.08 or 2.12 exceeds the sum required to satisfy such Lender’s liability in respect of such Advances, such Lender agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under any Notes.

(f) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender’s ratable share (determined as of the time the event giving rise to such indemnification occurred) of any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses, joint or several, of any kind or nature (including the fees (in the case of counsel, reasonable attorney’s fees), charges and disbursements of any advisor or counsel for such Person that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Notes or any action taken or omitted by the Agent hereunder or under the Notes; provided , however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements or expenses to the extent resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent for its ratable share (determined as of the time the event giving rise to such reimbursement occurred) of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 8.04(a), to the extent that the Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower.

SECTION 8.05. Right of Setoff . Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Advances due and

payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding any accounts designated as collateral accounts securing other Debt) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and any Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 8.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

SECTION 8.06. Binding Effect . This Agreement shall become effective (other than Sections 2.01 and 2.03, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.03) when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Agent and when the Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

SECTION 8.07. Assignments, Designations and Participations . (a) Each Lender (other than a Designated Bidder) may, with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and shall, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing and if demanded by the Borrower (pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.17) upon at least five Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Agent, assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it and any Revolving Credit Note or Notes held by it); provided , however , that:

(iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee,

(v) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrower or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement,

Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

SECTION 8.12. Judgment . (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase Dollars with such other currency at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M.

(b) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in a Foreign Currency into Dollars, the parties agree to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase such Foreign Currency with Dollars at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

(c) The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the “ Primary Currency ”) to any Lender or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.

SECTION 8.13. Substitution of Currency . If a change in any Foreign Currency occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definitions of Eurocurrency Rate and LIBO Rate) will be amended to the extent determined by the Agent

(acting reasonably and in consultation with the Borrower) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrower in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such Foreign Currency had occurred.

SECTION 8.14. Patriot Act Notice . Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

EXHIBIT E TO THE

CREDIT AGREEMENT

April 15, 2010

To each of the Lenders parties to the 364-Day Credit Agreement

defined below, dated as of April 15, 2010, among

United Parcel Service, Inc., such Lenders, and Citibank, N.A.,

as Administrative Agent

Re: United Parcel Service, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 3.01(e)(iv) of that certain U.S. 364-Day Credit Agreement (the “ Credit Agreement ”), dated as of April 15, 2010, among United Parcel Service, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Borrower ”), the banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders (collectively, the “ Lenders ”) listed on the signature pages thereto, Citibank, N.A. (“ Citibank ”), as administrative agent (the “ Agent ”) for the Lenders, with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., as joint arrangers and book managers. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

We have acted as special New York counsel for the Borrower in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement. In that connection, we have examined:

(1)

the Credit Agreement;

(2)

the corporate charter of the Borrower and all amendments thereto (its “ Charter ”);

(3)

the by-laws of the Borrower (its “ By-laws” ); and

(4) certificate of the Secretary of State of Delaware dated March 30, 2010, attesting to the continued corporate existence of the Borrower in such state.

We have also examined the certificate of the Assistant Secretary of the Borrower, dated April 15, 2010 and attached hereto (without any of the Annexes thereto except for Annex I ) as Exhibit A (the “ Certificate ”) and the originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of the documents listed in the Certificate. In addition, we have examined the originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such other corporate records of the Borrower, certificates of public officials and of officers of the Borrower and agreements, instruments and other documents, as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established by us, relied upon the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Credit Agreement and certificates of the Borrower or its officers.

For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that all items submitted to us as originals are authentic and all signatures thereon are genuine, all items submitted to us as copies conform to the originals, and each such item has been duly executed and delivered by each party pursuant to due authorization therefor and constitutes such party’s (other than the Borrower’s) legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms.

Our opinions expressed herein are limited to Applicable Laws, and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other law. The term “Applicable Laws” means those laws, rules and regulations of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the State of New York and of the laws of the United States of America which are actually known to us (based upon our review of those laws, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Agreement).

Based upon the foregoing and upon such investigation as we have deemed necessary, we are of the following opinion that as of the date hereof:

1. Based solely on the certificate described in item 4 above, the Borrower is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby are within the Borrower’s corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not contravene (i) its Charter or its By-laws or (ii) any Applicable Laws applicable to the Borrower (including, without limitation, Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or (iii) any contractual or legal restriction contained in any document listed in Annex I to the Certificate or otherwise known to us. The Credit Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower.

3. No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body in the State of New York or the United States of America is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Agreement.

4. The Credit Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

5. To our knowledge, except as otherwise described in the Credit Agreement or in the Borrower’s reports on Forms 10-Q or
10-K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there are no pending or overtly threatened actions or proceedings against the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator which purport to affect the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby or which are likely to have a materially adverse effect upon the financial condition or operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications:

(a) No opinion is rendered as to matters not specifically referred to herein and you may not infer from anything stated herein or not stated herein any opinions with respect thereto.

(b) Our opinion in paragraph 4 above is subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent obligation or conveyance, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

(c) Our opinion in paragraph 4 above is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including (without limitation) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(d) No opinion is rendered as to (i) whether a Federal or state court outside of the State of New York would give effect to the choice of New York law provided for in the Credit Agreement, (ii) Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement insofar as it provides that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant thereto may exercise setoff or similar rights with respect to such participation, (iii) the effect of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York wherein any Lender may be located or wherein enforcement of the Credit Agreement may be sought that limits the rates of interest legally chargeable or collectible, or (iv) the submission by the Borrower to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of New York State courts or Federal courts of the United States of America, sitting in New York City. In addition, certain other provisions contained in the Credit Agreement may be limited or rendered ineffective by Applicable Laws of the State of New York or judicial decisions governing such provisions or holding their enforcement to be unreasonable under the then existing circumstances, but the inclusion of such provisions does not affect the validity of the Credit Agreement as a whole and does not materially diminish the practical realization of the substantive rights and benefits intended to be provided thereby.

(e) Whenever our opinion with respect to the existence or absence of facts is indicated to be based on our knowledge or awareness, we are referring solely to the actual knowledge of the particular King & Spalding LLP attorneys who have represented the Borrower in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement. Except as expressly set forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such fact and no inference as to our knowledge concerning such facts should be drawn from the fact that such representation has been undertaken by us.

The opinions set forth herein are intended only for the benefit of the Lenders, and any future Eligible Assignee of or successor to the Lenders’ rights under the Credit Agreement, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement and may not be relied upon by, or delivered to, any other Person or used for any other purpose, without our written permission.

Very truly yours,

KING & SPALDING LLP

United Parcel Service, Inc.

Form of Non-Management Director

Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement

THIS AGREEMENT evidences the grant by UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in accordance with the United Parcel Service, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) to , a non-management director of the Company, of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”). Each RSU has a value that equals the value of one share of the Company’s class A common stock (“Share”). This Award is granted effective as of May 5, 2010 (“Grant Date”) and is subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth below.

Terms and Conditions

1. Plan . This Award is subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, which is herein incorporated by reference. Terms not defined in this agreement are defined in the Plan. If any term or condition in this Award is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall control. By accepting this Award, you unconditionally agree to be bound by the applicable terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and this Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Award shall not be amended or adjusted if such amendment or adjustment would cause this Award to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The grant of an Award in any year does not entitle an individual to an Award in any subsequent year.

2. Bookkeeping Account . A bookkeeping account will be maintained to keep track of the RSUs you earn and any dividend equivalents units (“DEUs”) attributable to your RSUs as described below.

3. Dividend Equivalent Units . The RSUs credited to your account will be credited quarterly with DEUs for cash or stock dividends paid on a Share. DEUs attributable to cash dividends are determined by

•

multiplying the cash dividend paid per Share by the number of RSUs and DEUs previously credited to your account, and

•

dividing the product determined above by the New York Stock Exchange closing price of the Company’s class B common stock on the day before the dividend is paid.

Each whole DEU or fraction thereof has a value equal to one Share or the corresponding fraction thereof.

4. Vesting . The RSUs credited to your account will be fully vested on the Grant Date and any DEUs credited to your account will be fully vested on the date they are credited to your account.

5. Shares . A number of Shares equal to the number of vested RSUs and DEUs credited to your account (less Shares withheld to pay taxes) will be transferred to you on the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) with the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) you are a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code taking into account such elections as the Board may choose to make from time to time and as are binding on all of the Company’s deferred compensation plans), and (ii) the distribution event is a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), other than death, then no amount shall be distributed to you before the date that is 6 months and one day after the date of your separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of your death) and any amounts that would have been distributed during the 6 months after your separation from service (or prior to death) shall be accumulated and distributed on the date that is 6 months and one day after the date of your separation from service (or, if earlier, upon the date of your death).

The benefit payable to you will be based entirely on the number of vested RSUs and DEUs credited to your account at the time this Award becomes so payable.

6. Nontransferable . This Award and your RSUs and DEUs are not transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
