STOCK DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

As Amended and Restated effective as of the Effective

Date or Such Other Dates Set Forth Herein

Purpose

The purpose of this Plan is to provide specified benefits to a select group of management and highly compensated Employees, and Directors, who contribute materially to the continued growth, development and future business success of the Company and any other subsidiaries, if any, that sponsor this Plan. The benefits provided hereunder shall be distributed in the form of Company Stock. This Plan shall be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA.

Effective Date

The Plan, as amended and restated in this document, is effective upon execution (the “ Effective Date ”), except those provisions which are as of such other date as may be set forth herein). The distribution of benefits vested as of December 31, 2004 (together with earnings thereon) (“ Grandfathered Benefits ”) shall be governed solely by the terms of Appendix A.

ARTICLE 1

Definitions

For purposes of this Plan, unless otherwise clearly apparent from the context, the following phrases or terms shall have the following meanings:

1.1    “ Account Balance ” shall mean, with respect to a Participant, a credit on the records of the Employer equal to the sum of (i) the Employee Deferral Account, (ii) the Director Deferral Account (collectively, the Employee Deferral and Director Deferral Accounts shall hereinafter be referred to as the “ Deferral Account ”), and (iii) the Employer Contribution Account. The Account Balance, and each other specified account balance, shall be a bookkeeping entry only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to a Participant, or his or her designated Beneficiary, pursuant to this Plan.

1.2    “ Annual Bonus ” shall mean any compensation, in addition to Base Annual Salary relating to services performed during any calendar year, whether or not paid in such calendar year or included on the Federal Income Tax Form W-2 for such calendar year, payable to a Participant as an Employee under any Employer’s annual bonus and cash incentive plans, excluding equity awards. Under no circumstances shall Annual Bonus include any long-term incentive plan earned prior to an employee becoming a Participant.

1.3    “ Annual Deferral Amount ” shall mean that portion of a Participant’s Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus and/or Director’s Compensation that a Participant elects to have, and is deferred, in accordance with Article 3, for any one Plan Year. In the event of a Participant’s Disability (if deferrals cease in accordance with Section 6.1) or Separation from Service prior to the end of a Plan Year, such year’s Annual Deferral Amount shall be the actual amount withheld prior to such event.

1.4    “ Annual Installment Method ” shall be annual installment payments over the number of years selected by the Participant in accordance with the Plan, calculated as follows: Prior to the last Business Day (as defined in Section 3.7) of the year, the Account Balance of the Participant shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is the remaining number of annual payments due the Participant (including the installment being calculated). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any installment payments payable under the Plan shall constitute a single payment for purposes of compliance with Code Section 409A.

By way of example, if the Participant elects a 10 year Annual Installment Method, the first payment shall be 1/10 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition. The following year, the payment shall be 1/9 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition. Each annual installment shall be paid on or as soon as administratively practicable following the last Business Day of the applicable year, but in no event more than 30 days after such date.

1.5    “ Base Annual Salary ” shall mean the annual cash compensation relating to services performed during any calendar year, whether or not paid in such calendar year or included on the Federal Income Tax Form W-2 for such calendar year, excluding bonuses, commissions, overtime, fringe benefits, equity awards, relocation expenses, incentive payments, retention payments, change in control and severance payments, non-monetary awards, directors’ fees and other fees, automobile and other allowances paid to a Participant for employment services rendered (whether or not such allowances are included in the Employee’s gross income). Base Annual Salary shall be calculated before reduction for compensation voluntarily deferred or contributed by the Participant pursuant to all qualified or non-qualified plans of any Employer and shall be calculated to include amounts not otherwise included in the Participant’s gross income under Code sections 125, 402(e)(3), 402(h), or 403(b) pursuant to plans established by any Employer; provided, however, that all such amounts will be included in compensation only to the extent that, had there been no such plan, the amount would have been payable in cash to the Employee.

1.6    “ Beneficiary ” shall mean one or more persons, trusts, estates or other entities, designated in accordance with Article 8, that are entitled to receive benefits under this Plan upon the death of a Participant.

1.7    “ Beneficiary Designation Form ” shall mean the form established from time to time by or at the direction of the Committee that a Participant completes, signs and returns to the Committee or its designated agent to designate one or more Beneficiaries.

1.8    “ Benefit Payment Date ” shall mean:

(a)    For purposes of a Short-Term Payout payable to a Participant under Article 4, any date occurring during the 60-day period beginning on January 1st of the calendar year designated by the Participant as the payment year for an Annual Deferral Amount (“ Short Term Payment Year ”), provided that such Short Term Payment Year shall be at least five Plan Years after the end of the Plan Year in which such amounts are actually deferred.

2

(b)    For purposes of a Separation from Service Benefit payable to a Participant under Article 5 who is not a Specified Employee (determined as of the date of his or her Separation from Service), any date occurring during the 90-day period beginning on the date on which the Participant experiences the Separation from Service; provided that if the Participant has elected payment pursuant to the Annual Installment Method, the Benefit Payment Date for each annual installment shall occur during the 30-day period beginning after each December 1 ^st .

(c)    For purposes of a Separation from Service Benefit payable to a Participant under Article 5 who is also a Specified Employee (determined as of the date of his or her Separation from Service), (i) on or as soon as administratively practicable after the first date of the seventh month following the Participant’s Separation from Service date, but in no event more than 30 days after such date, or (ii) if earlier, on or as soon as administratively practicable after the date of the Participant’s death; provided that if the Participant has elected payment pursuant to the Annual Installment Method, the Benefit Payment Date for the first annual installment shall take place during the 30-day period beginning after the earlier of July 1 or December 1 to occur after the completion of the sixth (6th) month following the Participant’s Separation from Service and, for all subsequent annual installments, during the 30-day period beginning after each December 1 ^st .

(b)    individuals who were members of the Board on the Effective Date (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a member of the Board subsequent to the Effective Date (i) whose appointment as a director by the Board was approved by a vote of at least three quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or (ii) whose nomination for election as a member of the Board by the Company’s stockholders was approved by the Incumbent Board or recommended by the nominating committee serving under the Incumbent Board, shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board;

(c)    consummation of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation involving the Company or the Employer or the securities of either, other than (i) in the case of the Company, a transaction at the completion of which the stockholders of the Company immediately preceding completion of the transaction hold more than 60% of the outstanding securities of the resulting entity entitled to vote generally in the election of its directors or (ii) in the case of the Employer, a transaction at the completion of which the Company holds more than 50% of the outstanding securities of the resulting institution entitled to vote generally in the election of its directors;

Each event comprising a Change in Control is intended to constitute a “change in ownership or effective control,” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets,” of the Company or the Employer as such terms are defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Change in Control as used herein shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Merger shall constitute a Change in Control.

Any amounts deferred pursuant to this limitation shall continue to be credited/debited with additional amounts, even if such amount is being paid out in installments. The amounts so deferred and amounts credited thereon shall be distributed to the Participant or his or her Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant’s death) at the earliest possible date, as determined by the Employer in good faith, on which the deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable year of the Employer during which the distribution is made will not be limited by Code section 162(m), or if earlier, the effective date of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Deduction Limitation shall not apply to any distributions made after a Change in Control.

For each Plan Year prior to 2019, a Participant may elect to defer, as his or her Annual Deferral Amount, up to 100% of his or her Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus and/or Director’s Compensation, as the case may be. If no election is made, or a Participant does not make a timely election, the amount deferred shall be zero.

3.2     Election to Defer; Effect of Election Form .

(b)     Subsequent Plan Years . For each succeeding Plan Year, a Participant may revoke or make a new deferral election for the subsequent Plan Year, provided that such election is made before the applicable Deferral Election Date. In the absence of the timely delivery of such a new Election Form, the Election Form in effect at the end of the preceding Plan Year shall constitute the Participant’s irrevocable deferral election for the succeeding Plan Year.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant, pursuant to Section 4.1, elects a Short-Term Payout, such election shall be effective for the subsequent Plan Year and shall render all of a Participant’s prior deferral elections, if any, ineffective for subsequent Plan Years. To defer compensation for subsequent Plan Years, the Participant must submit a new Election Form. In the absence of the timely delivery of a new Election Form, the Participant’s deferral amount shall be deemed to be zero for the subsequent Plan Year and will remain zero for all subsequent Plan Years unless and until he or she timely delivers a new Election Form to the Committee.

(d)     Election Form. For the above elections to be valid, the Election Form must be properly completed and signed by the Participant and timely delivered to and accepted by the Committee.

For any Plan Year, Matching Contributions may be made for some, but not all, Participants, and the amount of the Matching Contribution may vary from Participant to Participant, all as determined by the Employer in its sole discretion. No earnings shall be credited on any Matching Contributions until after such contributions are allocated to a Participant’s Employer Contribution Account.

(b)     Discretionary Employer Contributions . Each Employer may, but is not required to, contribute on behalf of a Participant who is an Employee of that Employer an additional Employer Contribution. For any Plan Year, Employer Contributions may be made for some, but not all, Participants, and the amount of the Employer Contribution may vary from Participant to Participant, all as determined by the Employer in its sole discretion.

The Participant’s Employer(s), or the trustee of the Trust, shall withhold from any payments made to a Participant under this Plan all federal, state and local income, employment and other taxes required to be withheld by the Employer(s), or the trustee of the Trust, in connection with such payments, in amounts and in a manner to be determined in the sole discretion of the Employer(s) and the trustee of the Trust.

11

The Participant’s election shall be made by submitting an Election Form to the Committee that is accepted by the Committee setting forth the Measurement Fund(s) to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to his or her Account Balance, or to change the portion of his or her Account Balance allocated to a previously elected Measurement Fund. Elections made in accordance with the previous sentence shall be made no more frequently than daily and shall apply to the next day the New York Stock Exchange is open (“ Business Day ”) in which the Participant participates in the Plan and continue thereafter, unless changed in accordance with the previous sentence.

(d)     Default Measurement Fund . In the event a Participant has not made an effective election to allocate amounts described in Section 3.9(a) above credited to the Participant’s Account Balance, such amounts shall be allocated to the Default Measurement Fund until such time as the Participant elects to allocate the amounts to another Measurement Fund.

(e)     Proportionate Allocation . In making any election described in Section 3.9(c) above, the Participant shall specify on the Election Form, in increments of one percent (1%), the percentage of his or her Account Balance to be allocated to a Measurement Fund (as if the Participant was making an investment in that Measurement Fund with that portion of his or her Account Balance).

(f)     Measurement Funds . The Participant may elect one or more measurement funds, based on such funds as are designated from time to time by Committee (the “ Measurement Funds ”). As necessary, the Committee may, in its discretion, discontinue, substitute or add a Measurement Fund. The Committee shall give Participants advance written notice of any such changes.

(g)     Crediting or Debiting Method . The performance of each elected Measurement Fund (either positive or negative) will be determined by the Committee, in its reasonable discretion, based on the performance of the Measurement Funds themselves. Each Business Day, a Participant’s Account Balance shall be credited or debited based on the performance of each Measurement Fund selected by the Participant, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as though (i) a Participant’s Account Balance were invested in the Measurement Fund(s) selected by the Participant, in the percentages applicable to such date, at the closing price on such date; (ii) the portion of the Annual Deferral Amount that was actually deferred during any payroll period was invested in the Measurement Fund(s) selected by the Participant, in the percentages applicable to that date, no later than the close of business on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the day on which such amounts are actually deferred from the Participant’s Base Annual Salary through reductions in his or her payroll, at the closing price on such date; and (iii) any distribution made to a Participant that decreases such Participant’s Account Balance ceased being invested in the Measurement Fund(s), in the applicable percentages, no earlier than one Business Day prior to the distribution, at the closing price on such date. Any Employer Contributions and/or Employer Matching Contributions shall be credited to a Participant’s Account Balance no later than the end of the first calendar quarter following the Plan Year to which such contributions relate. Despite the foregoing, to the extent the other amounts described in this Article 3 are paid into the Trust and the Trust assets are invested from time to time to reflect the elections made by Participants pursuant to Section 3.9(c) above, then each Participant’s Account Balance shall be debited or credited on the basis of the actual investment gains or losses of the Trust in lieu of crediting of the gains or losses in accordance with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

12

(h)     No Actual Investment . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the Measurement Funds are to be used for measurement purposes only, and a Participant’s election of any such Measurement Fund, the allocation to his or her Account Balance thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting or debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Account Balance shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of his or her Account Balance in any such Measurement Fund. In the event that the Company or the Trustee (as that term is defined in the applicable trust agreement with the Trust), in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in any or all of the Measurement Funds, no Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves. Without limiting the foregoing, a Participant’s Account Balance shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his or her behalf by the Company or the Trust; the Participant shall at all times remain an unsecured creditor of the Company.

ARTICLE 4

Short-Term Payout; Unforeseeable Financial Emergencies

4.1     Short-Term Payout . In connection with each election to defer an Annual Deferral Amount, a Participant may irrevocably elect to receive a future Short-Term Payout from the Plan with respect to such Annual Deferral Amount. Subject to the Deduction Limitation and Section 4.2, the Short-Term Payout shall be a lump sum payment in an amount that is equal to the Annual Deferral Amount plus amounts credited or debited in the manner provided in Section 3.8 above on that amount, determined at the time that the Short-Term Payout becomes payable. Subject to the Deduction Limitation and the other terms and conditions of this Plan, each Short-Term Payout elected shall be paid out on the applicable Benefit Payment Date. By way of example, if a five year Short-Term Payout is elected for an Annual Deferral Amount deferred in the Plan Year commencing January 1, 2015, the five-year Short-Term Payout would become payable during the 60-day period commencing January 1, 2021. For purposes of this Section 4.1, “Participant” shall not include Directors.

4.2     Other Benefits Take Precedence Over Short-Term . Should an event occur that triggers payment of a Separation from Service Benefit under Article 5, any Annual Deferral Amount, plus amounts credited or debited thereon, that is subject to a Short-Term Payout election under Section 4.1 shall not be paid in accordance with Section 4.1 but shall be paid in accordance with Article 5.

4.3     Withdrawal Payout/Suspensions for Unforeseeable Financial Emergencies . If the Participant experiences an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, the Participant may petition the Committee to (i) suspend any deferrals required to be made by a Participant and/or (ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Plan. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Participant’s Account Balance, calculated as if such Participant were receiving a Separation from Service Benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the Unforeseeable Financial Emergency. If, subject to the sole discretion of the Committee, the petition for a deferral suspension and/or payout is approved, the deferral suspension shall take effect upon the date of approval and any payout shall be made within 60 days of the date of approval. The payment of any amount under this Section 4.3 shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

13

4.4     Manner of Payment . All distributions made pursuant to this Article 4 shall be made in the form of Company Stock except for fractional shares and amounts credited to Measurement Funds, which shall be distributed in cash.

ARTICLE 5

Separation from Service Benefit

(a)    A Participant who is an Employee and experiences a Separation from Service shall receive, as a Separation from Service Benefit, his or her Employee Deferral Account and Employer Contribution Account on the Benefit Payment Date.

(b)    A Participant who is a Director and experiences a Separation from Service shall receive, as a Separation from Service Benefit, his or her Director Deferral Account on the Benefit Payment Date.

5.2     Payment of Separation from Service Benefit .

(a)    A Participant, in connection with his or her commencement of participation in the Plan, shall elect whether to receive payment of the Separation from Service Benefit in (i) a lump sum, (ii) 5 annual installments, or (iii) 10 annual installments. Annual installments shall be paid pursuant to the Annual Installment Method. Such election shall be made no later than the applicable Deferral Election Date and may be changed in accordance with Section 5.2(f) below.

(b)    If a Participant, in connection with his or her commencement of participation in the Plan, elects payment of his Separation from Service Benefit in annual installments, the Participant may elect whether, in the event of his death before all such installment payments are made, his Beneficiary should receive his remaining Account Balance in (i) installment payments over the remaining number of years and in the same amounts as the benefit would have been paid to the Participant had the Participant survived, or (ii) a lump sum.    Such election shall be made no later than the applicable Deferral Election Date.

(c)    If a Participant does not make any election with respect to the payment of the Separation from Service Benefit, then such benefit shall be payable in a lump sum to be paid on the Benefit Payment Date.

(d)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5.2(a) and (b) above, if the Participant’s Account Balance is less than the dollar limitation in effect under Code section 402(g) at the time of Separation from Service, payment of the Account Balance shall be made in a lump sum no later than 30 days after the last day of the calendar quarter in which the Participant experiences the Separation from Service; provided, however, that payment of the Account Balance to a Participant who is also a Specified Employee shall be made pursuant to Section 1.8(c). Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

14

(e)    All distributions made pursuant to this Article 5 shall be made in the form of Company Stock except for fractional shares and amounts credited to Measurement Funds, which shall be distributed in cash.

(f)    A Participant may change his or her distribution election made pursuant to Section 5.2(a) above by submitting the applicable election form to the Committee in accordance with the following criteria. A Participant shall be permitted one (1) distribution election change.

(ii)    The new Benefit Payment Date for the Participant’s Separation from Service Benefit shall be 5 years after the Benefit Payment Date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefit; and

(iii)    The election must be made at least 12 months prior to the Benefit Payment Date that would otherwise have been applicable to the Participant’s Separation from Service Benefit.

(g)    In no event shall any election under the Plan cause any amount in a Participant’s Account Balance to be distributed later than the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Participant’s Separation from Service.

ARTICLE 6

Disability Waiver

6.1     Waiver of Deferral . A Participant who suffers from a Disability may petition the Committee to be excused from fulfilling that portion of the Annual Deferral Amount commitment that would otherwise have been withheld from the Participant’s Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus, or Director’s Compensation for the Plan Year during which the Participant first suffers a Disability. Such petition must be submitted by the 15th day of the third month following the date the participant becomes Disabled. The suspension shall take effect upon the date the petition is approved by the Committee. During the period of Disability, the Participant shall not be allowed to make any additional deferral elections, but will continue to be considered a Participant for all other purposes of this Plan.

(a)     Return to Work . If a Participant returns to employment with an Employer after a Disability ceases, the Participant may elect to defer an Annual Deferral Amount for the Plan Year following his or her return to employment or service and for every Plan Year thereafter while a Participant in the Plan; provided such deferral elections are otherwise allowed and an Election Form is delivered to and accepted by the Committee for each such election in accordance with Section 3.2 above.

ARTICLE 7

Elections Relating to Employer Contributions; 409A Transition Elections

7.1     Timing of Election . If an individual initially becomes a Participant solely as a result of the crediting of an Annual Employer Contribution Amount, such Participant shall make the appropriate elections relating to the distribution of such Amounts within 30 days after the end of the Plan Year with respect to which such Annual Employer Contribution Amount is credited.

15

7.2     409A Transition Elections . Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, effective through December 31, 2008, a Participant may make new distribution elections with respect to benefits other than Grandfathered Benefits; provided that any such elections may only apply to benefits that would not otherwise be payable in 2008 and may not cause a benefit to be paid in 2008 that would not otherwise be payable in 2008. No election under this Section 7.2 shall violate any constructive receipt or other tax rule that would result in the acceleration of taxation of benefits.

ARTICLE 8

Beneficiary Designation

8.1     Beneficiary . Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate his or her Beneficiary(ies) (both primary as well as contingent) to receive any benefits payable under the Plan to a beneficiary upon the death of a Participant. The Beneficiary designated under this Plan may be the same as or different from the Beneficiary designation under any other plan of an Employer in which the Participant participates.

8.2     Beneficiary Designation . A Participant shall designate his or her Beneficiary by completing and signing the Beneficiary Designation Form and returning it to the Committee or its designated agent. A Participant shall have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Committee’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. If the Participant names someone other than his or her spouse as a Beneficiary, a spousal consent, in the form designated by the Committee, must be signed by that Participant’s spouse and returned to the Committee. Upon the acceptance by the Committee of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be canceled. The Committee shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by the Participant and accepted by the Committee prior to his or her death.

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

8.4     No Beneficiary Designation . If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided under this Article 8 or, if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Participant or die prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, then the Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his or her surviving spouse. If the Participant has no surviving spouse, the benefits remaining under the Plan to be paid to a Beneficiary shall be payable to the executor or personal representative of the Participant’s estate.

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

8.6     Discharge of Obligations . The payment of benefits under the Plan to a Beneficiary shall fully and completely discharge all Employers and the Committee from all further obligations under this Plan with respect to the Participant, and that Participant’s Plan Agreement shall terminate upon such full payment of benefits.

ARTICLE 9

Leave of Absence

If a Participant is authorized by the Participant’s Employer for any reason to take a paid leave of absence from the employment of the Employer, the Participant shall continue to be considered employed by the Employer and the Annual Deferral Amount shall continue to be withheld during such paid leave of absence in accordance with Section 3.3.

9.2     Unpaid Leave of Absence . If a Participant is authorized by the Participant’s Employer for any reason to take an unpaid leave of absence from the employment of the Employer, the Participant shall continue to be considered employed by the Employer and the Participant shall be excused from making deferrals until the earlier of the date the leave of absence expires or the Participant returns to paid employment status. Upon such expiration or return, deferrals shall resume for the remaining portion of the Plan Year in which the expiration or return occurs, based on the deferral election, if any, made for that Plan Year. If no election was made for that Plan Year, no deferral shall be withheld.

(b)    Upon termination of the Plan, the Plan Agreements of the Participants shall terminate and their Account Balances shall be distributed in a lump sum. The termination of the Plan shall not adversely affect any Participant or Beneficiary who has become entitled to the payment of any benefits under the Plan as of the date of termination; provided however, that upon Plan termination, each Employer shall accelerate installment payments without a premium or prepayment penalty by paying the Account Balance in a lump sum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions shall not be made in connection with the termination of the Plan unless all the requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) are satisfied. After a Change in Control, the effect of termination of the Plan shall be governed by Section 10.3 below.

10.2     Amendment . Subject to Section 10.3 below relating to amendments made after a Change in Control, any Employer may, at any time, amend or modify the Plan in whole or in part with respect to that Employer by the action of its board of directors; provided, however, that: (i) no amendment or modification shall be effective to decrease or restrict the value of a Participant’s Account Balance in existence at the time the amendment or modification is made, calculated as if the Participant had experienced a Separation from Service as of the effective date of the amendment or modification; and (ii) no amendment or modification of this Section 10.2 or Section 11.2 of the Plan shall be effective. Such amendment or modification of the Plan shall not affect any Participant or Beneficiary who has become entitled to the payment of benefits under the Plan as of the date of the amendment or modification.

17

10.3     Effect of Change in Control . The provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 above shall govern Plan amendments and/or Plan termination following a Change in Control.

10.4     Plan Agreement . Despite the provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 above, if a Participant’s Plan Agreement contains benefits or limitations that are not in this Plan document, the Employer may amend or terminate such provisions only with the consent of the Participant.

10.5     Effect of Payment . The full payment of the applicable benefit under Articles 4 or 5 of the Plan shall completely discharge all obligations to a Participant and his or her designated Beneficiaries under this Plan and the Participant’s Plan Agreement shall thereafter terminate.

10.6     Action by Board of Directors . For purposes of this Article 10, any action taken by the Committee or its Chairman shall constitute actions by the board of directors or the Company or any Employer, along with actions by any other person or entity to which such board of directors has delegated its authority under this Plan.

Miscellaneous

15.1     Status of Plan . The Plan is intended to be a plan that is not qualified within the meaning of Code section 401(a) and that “is unfunded and is maintained by an employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of ERISA sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1).

15.2     Unsecured General Creditor . Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of an Employer. For purposes of the payment of benefits under this Plan, any and all of an Employer’s assets shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged unrestricted assets of the Employer. An Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future.

15.3     Employer ’ s Liability . An Employer’s liability for the payment of benefits shall be defined only by the Plan and the Plan Agreement, as entered into between the Employer and a Participant. An Employer shall have no obligation to a Participant under the Plan except as expressly provided in the Plan and his or her Plan Agreement.

15.4     Nonassignability . Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise.

15.5     Not a Contract of Employment . The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between any Employer and the Participant. Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an “at-will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, unless expressly provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of any Employer as an Employee, or to interfere with the right of any Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

15.6     Furnishing Information . A Participant or his or her Beneficiary will cooperate with the Committee by furnishing any and all information requested by the Committee and take such other actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such physical examinations as the Committee may deem necessary.

21

15.7     Terms . Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and whenever any words are used herein in the singular or in the plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or the singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply.

15.8     Captions . The captions of the articles, sections and paragraphs of this Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

15.9     Governing Law . Subject to ERISA, the provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the internal laws of the State of Illinois without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

Fifth Third Pension, 401(k) and Medical Plan Committee

Cincinnati, OH 45263

Attn: Leslie Koenig

Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.

Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a Participant under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by mail, to the last known address of the Participant.

15.11     Successors . The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Participant’s Employer and its successors and assigns and the Participant and the Participant’s designated Beneficiaries. The Company shall require any successor or assignee to expressly and unconditionally assume and agree to perform or cause to be performed each Employer’s obligations hereunder. In addition, the Company shall require the ultimate parent entity of any successor or assignee to expressly guaranty the prompt performance by such successor or assignee.

15.12     Spouse ’ s Interest . The interest in the benefits hereunder of a spouse of a Participant who has predeceased the Participant shall automatically pass to the Participant and shall not be transferable by such spouse in any manner, including but not limited to such spouse’s will, nor shall such interest pass under the laws of intestate succession.

15.13     Validity . In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein.

22

15.14     Incompetent . If the Committee determines in its discretion that a benefit under this Plan is to be paid to a minor, a person declared incompetent or a person incapable of handling the disposition of that person’s property, the Committee may direct payment of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or incapable person. The Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate, prior to distribution of the benefit. Any payment of a benefit shall be a payment for the account of the Participant and the Participant’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Plan for such payment amount.

15.15     Court Order . The Committee is authorized to make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the Committee has been named as a party. In addition, if a court determines that a spouse or former spouse of a Participant has an interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan in connection with a property settlement or otherwise, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the right, notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, to immediately distribute the spouse’s or former spouse’s interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan to that spouse or former spouse.

15.16     Distribution in the Event of Taxation .

(a)     In General . If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefits under this Plan becomes taxable to the Participant prior to receipt, a Participant may petition the Committee before a Change in Control, or the trustee of the Trust after a Change in Control, for a distribution of that portion of his or her benefit that has become taxable. Upon the grant of such a petition, which grant shall not be unreasonably withheld (and, after a Change in Control, shall be granted), a Participant’s Employer shall distribute to the Participant immediately available funds in an amount equal to the taxable portion of his or her benefit (which amount shall not exceed a Participant’s unpaid Account Balance under the Plan). If the petition is granted, the tax liability distribution shall be made within 90 days of the date when the Participant’s petition is granted. Such a distribution shall affect and reduce the benefits to be paid under this Plan.

(b)     Trust . If the Trust terminates in accordance with its terms and benefits are distributed from the Trust thereunder to a Participant, the Participant’s benefits under this Plan shall be reduced to the extent of such distributions.

15.17     Insurance . The Employers, on their own behalf or on behalf of the trustee of the Trust, and, in their sole discretion, may apply for and procure insurance on the life of the Participant, in such amounts and in such forms as the Trust may choose. The Employers or the trustee of the Trust, as the case may be, shall be the sole owner and beneficiary of any such insurance. The Participant shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or policies and at the request of the Employers shall submit to medical examinations and supply such information and execute such documents as may be required by the insurance company or companies to whom the Employers have applied for insurance.

23

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has signed this Plan document as of February 8, 2019, effective as of the dates set forth herein.

APPENDIX A

The following provisions govern the distribution of benefits that were earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 (including any earnings thereon). The provisions of this Appendix A mirror the Plan provisions effective as of December 31, 2004 and should be interpreted accordingly.

A.1.     Definitions .

(a)    “Account Balance” shall mean a Participant’s vested interest in the Plan as of December 31, 2004.

(b)    “Annual Installment Method” shall be annual installment payments over the number of years selected by the Participant in accordance with the Plan, calculated as follows: Prior to the last Business Day of the year, the Account Balance of the Participant shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is the remaining number of annual payments due the Participant (including the installment being calculated). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any installment payments payable under the Plan shall constitute a single payment for purposes of compliance with Code section 409A.

By way of example, if the Participant elects a 10 year Annual Installment Method, the first payment shall be 1/10 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition. The following year, the payment shall be 1/9 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition. Each annual installment shall be paid on or as soon as administratively practicable following the last Business Day of the applicable year, but in no event more than 30 days after such date.

ARTICLE 1

Definitions

For purposes of this Plan, unless otherwise clearly apparent from the context, the following phrases or terms shall have the following meanings:

1.1    “ Account Balance ” shall mean, with respect to a Participant, an entry on the records of the Employer equal to the sum of the balances in the Participant’s 2004-2014 Account and each Annual Account. The Account Balance shall be a bookkeeping entry only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to a Participant, or his or her designated Beneficiary, pursuant to this Plan. If a Participant is both an Employee and a Director and participates in the Plan in each capacity, then separate Account Balances and separate Annual Accounts, if applicable, shall be established for such Participant as a device for the measurement and determination of the (a) amounts deferred under the Plan that are attributable to the Participant’s status as an Employee, and (b) amounts deferred under the Plan that are attributable to the Participant’s status as a Director.

1.2    “ Annual Account ” shall mean, with respect to a Participant, an entry on the records of the Employer equal to (a) the sum of the Participant’s Annual Deferral Amounts and Company Contributions for any one Plan Year, plus (b) amounts credited or debited to such amounts pursuant to this Plan, less (c) all distributions made to the Participant or his or her Beneficiary pursuant to this Plan that relate to the Annual Account for such Plan Year. The Annual Account shall be a bookkeeping entry only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to a Participant, or his or her designated Beneficiary, pursuant to this Plan.

1.3    “ Annual Bonus ” shall mean any compensation, in addition to Base Annual Salary relating to services performed during any calendar year, whether or not paid in such calendar year or included on the Federal Income Tax Form W-2 for such calendar year, payable to a Participant as an Employee under any Employer’s annual bonus and cash incentive plans, excluding equity awards. Under no circumstances shall Annual Bonus include any long-term incentive plan earned prior to an employee becoming a Participant.

1.4    “ Annual Deferral Amount ” shall mean that portion of a Participant’s Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus and/or Director’s Compensation that a Participant elects to have deferred, and is deferred, in accordance with Article 3, for any one Plan Year. In the event of a Participant’s Disability (if deferrals cease in accordance with Section 6.1) or Separation from Service prior to the end of a Plan Year, such year’s Annual Deferral Amount shall be the actual amount withheld prior to such event.

1.5    “ Base Annual Salary ” shall mean the annual cash compensation relating to services performed during any calendar year, whether or not paid in such calendar year or included on the Federal Income Tax Form W-2 for such calendar year, excluding bonuses, commissions, overtime, fringe benefits, equity awards, relocation expenses, incentive payments, retention payments, change in control and severance payments, non-monetary awards, directors’ fees and other fees, and automobile and other allowances paid to a Participant for employment services rendered (whether or not such allowances are included in the Employee’s gross income). Base Annual Salary shall be calculated before reduction for compensation voluntarily deferred or contributed by the Participant pursuant to all qualified or non-qualified plans of any Employer and shall be calculated to include amounts not otherwise included in the Participant’s gross income under Code sections 125, 402(e)(3), 402(h), or 403(b) pursuant to plans established by any Employer; provided, however, that all such amounts will be included in compensation only to the extent that, had there been no such plan, the amount would have been payable in cash to the Employee.

1.6    “ Beneficiary ” shall mean one or more persons, trusts, estates or other entities, designated in accordance with Article 8, that are entitled to receive benefits under this Plan upon the death of a Participant.

1.7    “ Beneficiary Designation Form ” shall mean the form established from time to time by or at the direction of the Committee that a Participant completes, signs and returns to the Committee or its designated agent to designate one or more Beneficiaries.

(b)    For purposes of a Separation from Service Benefit payable to a Participant under Section 5.2(a)(i), (iii) or (iv) who is not a Specified Employee (determined as of the date of his or her Separation from Service), any date occurring during the 90-day period beginning on the date on which the Participant experiences his or her Separation from Service.

If the Participant has elected payment pursuant to the Monthly Installment Method, installments that would otherwise be paid to the Participant prior to the Benefit Payment Date shall be accumulated and paid to the Participant on the Benefit Payment Date. By way of example, if a Participant’s Benefit Payment Date is the date determined under (i) above, the Participant’s first six monthly installments shall be delayed until the Benefit Payment Date, such that the initial payment on the Benefit Payment Date will equal seven monthly installments (calculated using the Monthly Installment Method).

1.9    “ Board ” shall mean the Board of Directors of the Company or the Committee, to the extent the Board of Directors has delegated its authority hereunder to the Committee.

(b)    individuals who were members of the Board on the Effective Date (the “ Incumbent Board ”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a member of the Board subsequent to the Effective Date (i) whose appointment as a director by the Board was approved by a vote of at least three quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or (ii) whose nomination for election as a member of the Board by the Company’s stockholders was approved by the Incumbent Board or recommended by the nominating committee serving under the Incumbent Board, shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board;

For the avoidance of doubt, the Merger shall constitute a Change in Control.

(a)    Each event comprising a Change in Control is intended to constitute a “change in ownership or effective control,” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets,” of the Company or the Employer as such terms are defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Change in Control as used herein shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

1.15    “ Deduction Limitation ” shall mean the following described limitation on a benefit that may otherwise be distributable pursuant to the provisions of this Plan. Except as otherwise provided, this limitation shall be applied to all distributions that are “subject to the Deduction Limitation” under this Plan. If an Employer determines in good faith prior to a Change in Control that there is a reasonable likelihood that any compensation paid to a Participant for a taxable year of the Employer would not be deductible by the Employer solely by reason of the limitation under Code section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Employer to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution to the Participant pursuant to this Plan prior to the Change in Control is deductible, the Employer may defer all or any portion of a distribution under this Plan. Any amounts deferred pursuant to this limitation shall continue to be credited/debited with additional amounts in accordance with Section 3.7 below, even if such amount is being paid out in installments. The amounts so deferred and amounts credited thereon shall be distributed to the Participant or his or her Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant’s death) at the earliest possible date, as determined by the Employer in good faith, on which the deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable year of the Employer during which the distribution is made will not be limited by Code section 162(m), or if earlier, the effective date of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Deduction Limitation shall not apply to any distributions made after a Change in Control.

Provided an Employee or Director selected to participate in the Plan has met all enrollment requirements set forth in this Plan and required by the Committee, including returning all required documents to the Committee or its designated agent within the specified time period, that Employee or Director shall commence participation in the Plan as soon as administratively practicable following the month in which the Employee or Director completes all enrollment requirements or another date, such as the first day of the next Plan Year, as specified by the Committee. If an Employee or Director fails to meet all such requirements within the period required, in accordance with Section 2.2, that Employee or Director shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan until the first day of the Plan Year following the delivery to and acceptance by the Committee or its designated agent of the required documents.

2.4     Termination of Participation and/or Deferrals . If the Committee determines in good faith that a Participant no longer qualifies as a member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees, as membership in such group is determined in accordance with Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, or is no longer a Director, the Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to prevent the Participant from making future deferral elections as of the first day of the subsequent Plan Year.

Separate bookkeeping accounts shall be maintained under this Plan with respect to amounts transferred from the FOBB Plan into this Plan. Such accounts shall distinguish between amounts that are subject to Section 409A, and amounts that are not, and shall be treated as such under this Plan. Accounts transferred from the FOBB Plan to this Plan shall be subject to the provisions of this Plan (including but not limited to the distribution provisions of this Plan and not the FOBB Plan), including separate treatment for amounts that are subject to Section 409A and amounts that are not, to the extent applicable.

ARTICLE 3

Deferral Commitments/Employer Contributions/Crediting/Taxes

3.1     Compensation Deferrals . For each Plan Year, prior to 2020 a Participant may elect to defer, as his or her Annual Deferral Amount, up to 100% of his or her Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus and/or Director’s Compensation, as the case may be. If no election is made, or if a Participant does not make a timely election, the amount deferred shall be zero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant first becomes a Participant after the first day of a Plan Year, the maximum Annual Deferral Amount shall be limited to the amount of compensation not yet earned by the Participant as of the date the Participant submits a Plan Agreement and Election Form to the Committee for acceptance.

3.2     Election to Defer; Effect of Election Form .

(a)     General Rules . Except as provided below, a Participant must make his or her deferral election as to each Plan Year no later than the applicable Deferral Election Date and such election shall become irrevocable as of the last day of such preceding Plan Year.

(b)     Subsequent Plan Years . For each succeeding Plan Year, a Participant may revoke or make a new deferral election for the subsequent Plan Year, provided that such election is made before the applicable Deferral Election Date. In the absence of the timely delivery of such a new Election Form, the Election Form in effect at the end of the preceding Plan Year shall constitute the Participant’s irrevocable deferral election for the succeeding Plan Year.

(c)     Effect of Short-Term Payout Election . Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant, pursuant to Section 4.1, elects a Short-Term Payout, such election shall be effective for the subsequent Plan Year and shall render all of a Participant’s prior deferral elections, if any, ineffective for subsequent Plan Years. To defer compensation for subsequent Plan Years, the Participant must submit a new Election Form. In the absence of the timely delivery of a new Election Form, the Participant’s deferral amount shall be deemed to be zero for the subsequent Plan Year and will remain zero for all subsequent Plan Years unless and until he or she timely delivers a new Election Form to the Committee.

(d)     Election Form . For the above elections to be valid, the Election Form must be properly completed and signed by the Participant and timely delivered to and accepted by the Committee.

3.3     Employer Contributions .

(a)     Discretionary Matching Contributions . For each Plan Year an Employer, in its sole discretion, may agree to contribute to any Participant’s Annual Account a Matching Contribution with respect to that Plan Year.

9

The amount of the Matching Contribution shall be determined in relation to the Participant’s Annual Deferral Amount, or to such other compensation that the Participant makes to any other plan of deferred compensation. For any Plan Year, Matching Contributions may be made for some, but not all, Participants, and the amount of the Matching Contribution may vary from Participant to Participant, all as determined by the Employer in its sole discretion. No earnings shall be credited on any Matching Contributions until after such contributions are allocated to a Participant’s Annual Account.

(b)     Discretionary Employer Contributions . For each Plan Year an Employer may, but is not required to, contribute to any Participant’s Annual Account an additional Employer Contribution. For any Plan Year, Employer Contributions may be made for some, but not all, Participants, and the amount of the Employer Contribution may vary from Participant to Participant, all as determined by the Employer in its sole discretion. No earnings shall be credited on any Employer Contributions until after such contributions are allocated to a Participant’s Annual Account.

3.4     Withholding and Crediting of Annual Deferral Amounts . For each Plan Year, the Base Annual Salary portion of the Annual Deferral Amount shall be withheld from each regularly scheduled Base Annual Salary payroll in equal amounts, as adjusted from time to time for increases and decreases in Base Annual Salary. The Annual Bonus and/or Director Compensation portion of the Annual Deferral Amount shall be withheld at the time the Annual Bonus or Director Compensation are or otherwise would be paid to the Participant, whether or not this occurs during the Plan Year itself. Annual Deferral Amounts shall be credited to the Participant’s applicable Annual Account for such Plan Year at the time such amounts would otherwise have been paid to the Participant.

3.5     Investment of Trust Assets . In the event that a Trust is established, the Trustee of the Trust shall be authorized, upon written instructions received from the Committee or investment manager appointed by the Committee, to invest and reinvest the assets of the Trust in accordance with the applicable trust agreement.

3.6     Vesting . A Participant shall at all times be 100% vested in his or her Account Balance.

3.7     Crediting/Debiting of Account Balances . In accordance with, and subject to, the rules and procedures that are established from time to time by the Committee, in its sole discretion, amounts shall be credited or debited to a Participant’s Account Balance in accordance with the following rules:

(a)     Election of Measurement Funds . A Participant, in connection with his or her initial deferral election in accordance with Section 3.2(a) above, shall elect, on the Election Form, one or more Measurement Fund(s) (as described in Section 3.7(c) below) to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to his or her Account Balance. A Participant shall elect, by submitting an Election Form to the Committee that is accepted by the Committee, the Measurement Fund(s) to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to his or her Account Balance, or to change the portion of his or her Account Balance allocated to each previously newly elected Measurement Fund. Elections made in accordance with the previous sentence shall be made no more frequently than daily and shall apply to the next day the New York Stock Exchange is open (“Business Day”) in which the Participant participates in the Plan and continue thereafter, unless changed in accordance with the previous sentence.

10

(b)     Proportionate Allocation . In making any election described in Section 3.7(a) above, the Participant shall specify on the Election Form, in increments of one percent (1%), the percentage of his or her Account Balance to be allocated to a Measurement Fund (as if the Participant was making an investment in that Measurement Fund with that portion of his or her Account Balance).

(c)     Measurement Funds . The Participant may elect one or more measurement funds, based on such funds as are designated from time to time by Committee (the “Measurement Funds”). As necessary, the Committee may, in its discretion, discontinue, substitute or add a Measurement Fund. The Committee shall give Participants advance written notice of any such changes.

(d)     Crediting or Debiting Method . The performance of each elected Measurement Fund (either positive or negative) will be determined by the Committee, in its reasonable discretion, based on the performance of the Measurement Funds themselves. Each Business Day, a Participant’s Account Balance shall be credited or debited based on the performance of each Measurement Fund selected by the Participant, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as though (i) a Participant’s Account Balance were invested in the Measurement Fund(s) selected by the Participant, in the percentages applicable to such date, at the closing price on such date; (ii) the portion of the Annual Deferral Amount that was actually deferred during any payroll period was invested in the Measurement Fund(s) selected by the Participant, in the percentages applicable to that date, no later than the close of business on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the day on which such amounts are actually deferred from the Participant’s Base Annual Salary through reductions in his or her payroll, at the closing price on such date; and (iii) any distribution made to a Participant that decreases such Participant’s Account Balance ceased being invested in the Measurement Fund(s), in the applicable percentages, no earlier than one Business Day prior to the distribution, at the closing price on such date. Any Employer Contributions and/or Employer Matching Contributions shall be credited to a Participant’s Account Balance no later than the end of the first calendar quarter following the Plan Year to which such contributions relate. Despite the foregoing, to the extent the other amounts described in this Article 3 are paid into the Trust and the Trust assets are invested from time to time to reflect the elections made by Participants pursuant to Section 3.7(a) above, then each Participant’s Account Balance shall be debited or credited on the basis of the actual investment gains or losses of the Trust in lieu of crediting of the gains or losses in accordance with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

(e)     No Actual Investment . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the Measurement Funds are to be used for measurement purposes only, and a Participant’s election of any such Measurement Fund, the allocation to his or her Account Balance thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting or debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Account Balance shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of his or her Account Balance in any such Measurement Fund.

11

In the event that the Company or the Trustee (as that term is defined in the applicable trust agreement with the Trust), in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in any or all of the Measurement Funds, no Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves. Without limiting the foregoing, a Participant’s Account Balance shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his or her behalf by the Company or the Trust; the Participant shall at all times remain an unsecured creditor of the Company.

3.8     FICA and Other Taxes .

(a)     Annual Accounts . For each Plan Year in which an Annual Deferral Amount is being withheld from a Participant, the Participant’s Employer(s) shall withhold from that portion of the Participant’s Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus and Director’s Compensation that is not being deferred, in a manner determined by the Employer(s), the Participant’s share of FICA and other employment taxes on such Annual Deferral Amount. If necessary, the Committee may reduce the Annual Deferral Amount in order to comply with this Section 3.8.

(b)     Employer Contributions . When a Participant is credited with an Employer Contribution Amount or Matching Contribution Amount in his or her applicable Annual Account, the Participant’s Employer(s) shall withhold from the Participant’s Base Annual Salary and/or Annual Bonus that is not deferred, in a manner determined by the Employer(s), the Participant’s share of FICA and other employment taxes on such amount. If necessary, the Committee may reduce the applicable Annual Account in order to comply with this Section 3.8.

(c)     Distributions . The Participant’s Employer(s), or the trustee of the Trust, shall withhold from any payments made to a Participant under this Plan all federal, state and local income, employment and other taxes required to be withheld by the Employer(s), or the trustee of the Trust, in connection with such payments, in amounts and in a manner to be determined in the sole discretion of the Employer(s) and the trustee of the Trust.

ARTICLE 4

Short-Term Payout; Unforeseeable Financial Emergencies

4.1     Short-Term Payout . In connection with each election to defer an Annual Deferral Amount, a Participant may irrevocably elect to receive a future Short-Term Payout from the Plan with respect to such Annual Deferral Amount. Subject to the Deduction Limitation and Section 4.2, the Short-Term Payout shall be a lump sum payment in an amount that is equal to the Annual Deferral Amount plus amounts credited or debited in the manner provided in Section 3.7 above on that amount, determined at the time that the Short-Term Payout becomes payable. Subject to the Deduction Limitation and the other terms and conditions of this Plan, each Short-Term Payout elected shall be paid out on the applicable Benefit Payment Date. By way of example, if a five-year Short-Term Payout is elected for an Annual Deferral Amount deferred in the Plan Year commencing January 1, 2015, the five-year Short-Term Payout would become payable during the 60-day period commencing January 1, 2021. For purposes of this Section 4.1, “Participant” shall not include Directors.

4.2     Other Benefits Take Precedence Over Short-Term . Should an event occur that triggers payment of a Separation from Service Benefit under Article 5, any Annual Deferral Amount, plus amounts credited or debited thereon, that is subject to a Short-Term Payout election under Section 4.1 shall not be paid in accordance with Section 4.1 but shall be paid in accordance with Article 5.

12

4.3     Withdrawal Payout/Suspensions for Unforeseeable Financial Emergencies . If the Participant experiences an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, the Participant may petition the Committee to (i) suspend any deferrals required to be made by a Participant and/or (ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Plan. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Participant’s Account Balance, calculated as if such Participant were receiving a Separation from Service Benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the Unforeseeable Financial Emergency. If, subject to the sole discretion of the Committee, the petition for a deferral suspension and/or payout is approved, the deferral suspension shall take effect upon the date of approval and any payout shall be made within 60 days of the date of approval. The payment of any amount under this Section 4.3 shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

ARTICLE 5

Separation from Service Benefit

5.1     Separation from Service Benefit . Subject to Section 5.2 and the Deduction Limitation:

5.2     Payment of Separation from Service Benefit .

(a)    As part of his/her election to make Compensation Deferrals to an Annual Account, a Participant may elect to receive such Annual Account in (i) a lump sum upon Separation from Service, (ii) a lump sum on the first, second, third, fourth, or fifth anniversary of Separation from Service, (iii) 60 monthly installments commencing upon Separation from Service, (iv) 60 monthly installments commencing on the first, second, third, fourth, or fifth anniversary of Separation from Service, or (v) 120 monthly installments commencing upon Separation from Service. Monthly installments shall be paid pursuant to the Monthly Installment Method. Such election shall be made no later than the applicable Deferral Election Date and shall be irrevocable.

(b)    If a Participant elects payment of his Separation from Service Benefit in monthly installments, the Participant may elect whether, in the event of his death before all such installment payments are made, his Beneficiary should receive his remaining Account Balance in (i) installment payments over the remaining number of months and in the same amounts as the benefit would have been paid to the Participant had the Participant survived, or (ii) a lump sum. Such election shall be made no later than the applicable Deferral Election Date.

13

(c)    If a Participant does not make any election with respect to the payment of the Separation from Service Benefit, then such benefit shall be payable in a lump sum upon the Participant’s Separation from Service to be paid on the applicable Benefit Payment Date.

(d)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5.2(a) and (b) above, if the Participant’s Account Balance is less than the dollar limitation in effect under Code section 402(g) at the time of Separation from Service, payment of the Account Balance shall be made in a lump sum no later than 30 days after the last day of the calendar quarter in which the Participant experiences the Separation from Service; provided, however, that payment of the Account Balance to a Participant who is also a Specified Employee shall be made pursuant to Section 1.8(d). Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

(e)    A Participant may change his or her distribution election (time and/or form) for the 2005-2014 Account and each Annual Account by submitting the applicable election form to the Committee in accordance with the following criteria. A Participant shall be permitted one distribution election change for each such account.

(i)    The election shall not take effect until at least 12 months after the date on which the election is made;

(ii)    The new Benefit Payment Date for the Participant’s Separation from Service Benefit shall be 5 years after the Benefit Payment Date that would otherwise have been applicable to such benefit; and

(iii)    The election must be made at least 12 months prior to the Benefit Payment Date that would otherwise have been applicable to the Participant’s Separation from Service Benefit.

(f)    In no event shall any election under the Plan cause any amount in a Participant’s Account Balance to be distributed later than the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Participant’s Separation from Service.

ARTICLE 6

Disability Waiver

6.1     Waiver of Deferral . A Participant who suffers from a Disability may petition the Committee to be excused from fulfilling that portion of the Annual Deferral Amount commitment that would otherwise have been withheld from the Participant’s Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus or Director’s Compensation for the Plan Year during which the Participant first suffers a Disability. Such petition must be submitted by the 15th day of the third month following the date the participant becomes Disabled. The suspension shall take effect upon the date the petition is approved by the Committee. During the period of Disability, the Participant shall not be allowed to make any additional deferral elections but will continue to be considered a Participant for all other purposes of this Plan.

(a)     Return to Work . If a Participant returns to employment with an Employer after a Disability ceases, the Participant may elect to defer an Annual Deferral Amount for the Plan Year following his or her return to employment or service and for every Plan Year thereafter while a Participant in the Plan; provided such deferral elections are otherwise allowed and an Election Form is delivered to and accepted by the Committee for each such election in accordance with Section 3.2 above.

7.2     409A Transition Elections . Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, effective through December 31, 2008, a Participant may make new distribution elections with respect to benefits other than Grandfathered Benefits; provided that any such elections may apply only to benefits that would not otherwise be payable in 2008 and may not cause a benefit to be paid in 2008 that would not otherwise be payable in 2008.

ARTICLE 8

Beneficiary Designation

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

8.2     Beneficiary Designation . A Participant shall designate his or her Beneficiary by completing and signing the Beneficiary Designation Form and returning it to the Committee or its designated agent. A Participant shall have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Committee’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. If the Participant names someone other than his or her spouse as a Beneficiary, a spousal consent, in the form designated by the Committee, must be signed by that Participant’s spouse and returned to the Committee. Upon the acceptance by the Committee of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be canceled. The Committee shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by the Participant and accepted by the Committee prior to his or her death.

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

Upon such expiration or return, deferrals shall resume for the remaining portion of the Plan Year in which the expiration or return occurs, based on the deferral election, if any, made for that Plan Year. If no election was made for that Plan Year, no deferral shall be withheld.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions shall not be made in connection with the termination of the Plan unless all the requirements of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) are satisfied.

An Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future.

15.3     Employer ’ s Liability . An Employer’s liability for the payment of benefits shall be defined only by the Plan and the Plan Agreement, as entered into between the Employer and a Participant. An Employer shall have no obligation to a Participant under the Plan except as expressly provided in the Plan and his or her Plan Agreement.

15.4     Nonassignability . Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise.

15.5     Not a Contract of Employment . The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between any Employer and the Participant. Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an “at-will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, unless expressly provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of any Employer as an Employee, or to interfere with the right of any Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

20

15.6     Furnishing Information . A Participant or his or her Beneficiary will cooperate with the Committee by furnishing any and all information requested by the Committee and take such other actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such physical examinations as the Committee may deem necessary.

15.7     Terms . Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and whenever any words are used herein in the singular or in the plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or the singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply.

15.8     Captions . The captions of the articles, sections and paragraphs of this Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

15.9     Governing Law . Subject to ERISA, the provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the internal laws of the State of Illinois without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

Attn: Leslie Koenig

Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.

Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a Participant under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by mail, to the last known address of the Participant.

15.11     Successors . The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Participant’s Employer and its successors and assigns and the Participant and the Participant’s designated Beneficiaries. The Company shall require any successor or assignee to expressly and unconditionally assume and agree to perform or cause to be performed each Employer’s obligations hereunder. In addition, the Company shall require the ultimate parent entity of any successor or assignee to expressly guaranty the prompt performance by such successor or assignee.

21

15.12     Spouse ’ s Interest . The interest in the benefits hereunder of a spouse of a Participant who has predeceased the Participant shall automatically pass to the Participant and shall not be transferable by such spouse in any manner, including but not limited to such spouse’s will, nor shall such interest pass under the laws of intestate succession.

15.13     Validity . In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein.

15.14     Incompetent . If the Committee determines in its discretion that a benefit under this Plan is to be paid to a minor, a person declared incompetent or a person incapable of handling the disposition of that person’s property, the Committee may direct payment of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or incapable person. The Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate, prior to distribution of the benefit. Any payment of a benefit shall be a payment for the account of the Participant and the Participant’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Plan for such payment amount.

15.15     Court Order . The Committee is authorized to make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the Committee has been named as a party. In addition, if a court determines that a spouse or former spouse of a Participant has an interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan in connection with a property settlement or otherwise, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the right, notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, to immediately distribute the spouse’s or former spouse’s interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan to that spouse or former spouse.

15.16     Distribution in the Event of Taxation .

(a)     In General . If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefits under this Plan becomes taxable to the Participant prior to receipt, a Participant may petition the Committee before a Change in Control, or the trustee of the Trust after a Change in Control, for a distribution of that portion of his or her benefit that has become taxable. Upon the grant of such a petition, which grant shall not be unreasonably withheld (and, after a Change in Control, shall be granted), a Participant’s Employer shall distribute to the Participant immediately available funds in an amount equal to the taxable portion of his or her benefit (which amount shall not exceed a Participant’s unpaid Account Balance under the Plan). If the petition is granted, the tax liability distribution shall be made within 90 days of the date when the Participant’s petition is granted. Such a distribution shall affect and reduce the benefits to be paid under this Plan.

(b)     Trust . If the Trust terminates in accordance with its terms and benefits are distributed from the Trust thereunder to a Participant, the Participant’s benefits under this Plan shall be reduced to the extent of such distributions.

15.17     Insurance . The Employers, on their own behalf or on behalf of the trustee of the Trust, and, in their sole discretion, may apply for and procure insurance on the life of the Participant, in such amounts and in such forms as the Trust may choose.

22

The Employers or the trustee of the Trust, as the case may be, shall be the sole owner and beneficiary of any such insurance. The Participant shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or policies and at the request of the Employers shall submit to medical examinations and supply such information and execute such documents as may be required by the insurance company or companies to whom the Employers have applied for insurance.

If the Participant’s Employer does not sponsor such a plan, or discontinues to sponsor such a plan, Disability shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

(c)    “Retirement,” “Retire(s)” or “Retired” shall mean severance from employment from all Employers for any reason other than a leave of absence, death or Disability on or after the earlier of the attainment of (a) age sixty-five (65) or (b) age fifty-five (55) with ten (10) years of service.

If the Participant experiences an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, the Participant may petition the Committee to receive a partial or full payout from the Plan. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Participant’s Account Balance, calculated as if such Participant were receiving a Termination Benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the Unforeseeable Financial Emergency.

The payment of any amount under this Section A.2(a) shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

(b)     Withdrawal Election . A Participant (or, after a Participant’s death, his or her Beneficiary) may elect, at any time, to withdraw all of his or her Account Balance, calculated as if there had occurred a Termination of Employment as of the day of the election, less a withdrawal penalty equal to 10% of such amount (the net amount shall be referred to as the “Withdrawal Amount”). This election can be made at any time, before or after Retirement, Disability, death or Termination of Employment, and whether or not the Participant (or Beneficiary) is in the process of being paid pursuant to an installment payment schedule. If made before Retirement, Disability or death, a Participant’s Withdrawal Amount shall be his or her Account Balance calculated as if there had occurred a Termination of Employment as of the day of the election.

Installment payments shall be calculated and paid pursuant to the Monthly Installment Method. The lump sum payment shall be made, or installment payments shall commence, no later than 60 days after the date of the Participant’s Retirement. Also, the Committee, in its sole and unrestricted discretion, but taking into account any request made by the Participant, shall determine whether the lump-sum payment shall be in cash or in kind. Payment shall be made no later than 60 days after the date of the Participant’s Retirement. Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

(e)     Termination Benefit . Subject to the Deduction Limitation, the Participant shall receive a Termination Benefit, which shall be equal to the Participant’s Account Balance, if a Participant experiences a Termination of Employment prior to his or her Retirement, death or Disability.

(i)     Payment of Termination Benefit . The Committee, in its sole and unrestricted discretion, but taking into account any election made by the Participant, shall determine whether the Participant will receive distribution of all amounts payable to him under this paragraph, in a lump sum, in installments over 60 months or in installments over 120 months. The Participant may change his elected form of payment by submitting an Election Form to that effect which is accepted by the Committee at least twelve (12) months prior to his or her Retirement Date.

(f)     Disability Waiver and Benefit .

(i)     Disability Benefit . A Participant suffering a Disability shall, for benefit purposes under this Plan, continue to be considered to be employed and shall be eligible for the benefits provided in (a)-(e) above. Notwithstanding the above, the Committee shall have the right to, in its sole and absolute discretion and for purposes of this Plan only, and must in the case of a Participant who is otherwise eligible for Retirement, deem the Participant to have experienced a Termination of Employment, or in the case of a Participant who is eligible for Retirement, to have attained (or reached) Retirement, at any time (or in the case of a Participant who is eligible for Retirement, as soon as practicable) after such Participant is determined to be suffering a Disability, in which case the Participant shall receive a Disability Benefit equal to his or her Account Balance at the time of the Committee’s determination; provided, however, that should the Participant otherwise have been eligible for Retirement, he or she shall be paid in accordance with (c) above. The Disability Benefit shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days of the Committee’s exercise of such right. Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

(g)     Court Order . The Committee is authorized to make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the Committee has been named as a party. In addition, if a court determines that a spouse or former spouse of a Participant has an interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan in connection with a property settlement or otherwise, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the right, notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, to immediately distribute the spouse’s or former spouse’s interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan to that spouse or former spouse.

If the petition is granted, the tax liability distribution shall be made within 90 days of the date when the Participant’s petition is granted. Such a distribution shall affect and reduce the benefits to be paid under this Plan.

(ii)     Trust . If the Trust terminates in accordance with Section 3.6(e) of the Trust, and benefits are distributed from the Trust to a Participant in accordance with that Section, the Participant’s benefits under this Plan shall be reduced to the extent of such distributions.

If the Committee determines in good faith that a Participant no longer qualifies as a member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees, as membership in such group is determined in accordance with Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, or is no longer a director, the Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion immediately distribute the Participant’s then Account Balance as a Termination Benefit to the Participant.
