C. First-Year Participation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.3, when an individual first becomes eligible to participate in this Plan during a Regular Compensation Deferral Period, a Deferral Election may be filed with the Committee with respect to Regular Compensation earned during such Regular Compensation Deferral Period. Such a Deferral Election must be filed no later than 30 days after the date the individual becomes eligible to participate in the Plan. The Deferral Election will be effective only as to Regular Compensation that is earned during the Regular Compensation Deferral Period in which the Participant first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan with respect to services that are performed following the filing of the Deferral Election Form with the Committee (and shall not be effective as to any subsequent Deferral Period).

2.4 Modification Of Deferral Election.

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, a Deferral Election shall be irrevocable during a Deferral Period. If the Committee determines, in its discretion, that a Participant is no longer eligible to participate in the Plan, but his or her employment with the Participating Employer has not terminated, then the Participant’s Deferral Election shall continue in effect until the end of the Deferral Period.

9

2.5 Impact Of Financial Hardship On Election.

If the Committee (or its delegate) determines that a Participant has incurred a Financial Hardship prior to the end of a Regular Compensation Deferral Period, the Participant’s Deferral Election as to Regular Compensation shall end as of the date of such determination (and no additional Regular Compensation will be deferred for the remainder of the Regular Compensation Deferral Period for such Participant). No future Deferral Election by the Participant shall be effective until the beginning of the Regular Compensation Deferral Period that commences at least 12 months after the date of determination of Financial Hardship by the Committee.

2.6 Limited Period To Elect To Defer Additional Compensation.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, a Participant may elect (to the extent permitted under applicable Treasury Regulations or other Internal Revenue Service or Treasury Department guidance) prior to January 1, 2009 in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee, to defer Compensation payable after December 31, 2008 by submitting a written election to the Committee no later than the date established by the Committee).

2.7 Executive Retirement Contributions

The Committee, in its discretion, may designate employees of a Participating Employer on whose behalf the Participating Employer shall make Executive Retirement Contributions under the Plan. The Executive Retirement Contributions shall be credited to an Executive Retirement Contribution Account on behalf of each such designated employee, who shall be considered a Participant in the Plan without regard to whether the employee also participates in the Plan pursuant to the elective deferral provisions of Section 2.1. Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator, an Executive Retirement Contribution will be made on behalf of employees designated by the Committee as members of Group A and Group B equal to the following percentages of the employee’s Compensation to be earned for services performed for a Participating Employer each calendar year, commencing with 2010:

By way of example, deferral of an annual, performance-based bonus payment earned based on the Participant’s service during the calendar year 2006 and otherwise payable in March 2007 will be credited to the Participant’s Account in March 2007 (or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter). Executive Retirement Contributions shall be credited to the Participant’s Account at the end of each calendar quarter based upon the amount of Compensation paid during that quarter.

3.3 Withholding Of Payroll Taxes On Amounts Deferred.

Any withholding of taxes or other amounts with respect to compensation deferred under the Plan that is required by local, state or federal law shall be withheld from the Participant’s corresponding non-deferred portion of compensation to the maximum extent possible, and the remaining amount of any such taxes required to be withheld shall reduce the amounts credited to the Participant’s Accounts in a manner determined by the Committee.

ARTICLE 4

DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1 Distribution Of Deferred Compensation Accounts.

(a) Time Of Distribution. A Participant’s Deferred Compensation Accounts will be distributed as follows, except as provided in Sections 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4:

(i) If the Participant has made an election to receive benefits at Termination of Employment with respect to a Deferral Period Account, as described in Section 2.2(b)(ii), the Participant (or, after his or her death, the Participant’s Beneficiary) shall be paid or commence to be paid benefits from such Account during the 60-day period (on a date determined in the discretion of the Plan Administrator) following the earliest to occur of the Participant’s Termination of Employment, Disability (while an employee of a Participating Employer) or death;

(ii) If the Participant has made a Special Deferral Election with respect to a Deferral Period Account, as described in Section 2.2(b)(i), the Participant (or, after his or her death, the Participant’s Beneficiary) shall be paid or commence to be paid benefits from such Account during the 60-day period (on a date determined by the Plan Administrator) following the earliest to occur of:

(1) The date set forth in the Participant’s Special Deferral Election;

(2) The Participant’s death;

(3) The Participant’s Disability (while an employee of a Participating Employer); or

(4) The Participant’s Termination of Employment before his or her Retirement.

For purposes of Section 4.1(a)(ii)(4), a Participant has a “Termination of Employment before his or her Retirement” if, on the date of the Participant’s Termination of Employment, he or she has not yet either: (A) attained age 65; or (B) attained age 55 and been credited with at least ten years of Vesting Service (as defined in the BancWest Corporation 401(k) Savings Plan, as in effect as of October 3, 2004). A Participant’s Termination of Employment on or after the date that he or she meets the requirement(s) in either (A) or (B) of the previous sentence shall not be an event that triggers the payment (or commencement of payment) of benefits from a Deferral Period Account with respect to which the Participant has made a Special Deferral Election.

(iii) A Participant’s Executive Retirement Contribution Account shall be paid or commence to be paid to the Participant (or, after his or her death, the Participant’s Beneficiary) during the 60-day period (on a date determined by the Plan Administrator) following the Participant’s Termination of Employment.

14

The value of an Account shall be determined as of the Valuation Date prior to a distribution from such Account.

(b) Form Of Distribution.

(i) Except as provided in Section 4.3, a distribution of a Deferral Period Account shall be paid in the form selected by the Participant under Section 2.2(c) from among the following alternatives:

(1) A lump sum; or

(2) Substantially equal annual installments over a period of five, ten, or 15 years, pursuant to the Annual Installment Method.

(ii) Except as provided in Section 4.3, the distribution of an Executive Retirement Contribution Account shall be made in the form elected by the Participant from among the following alternatives:

(1) A lump sum; or

(2) Substantially equal annual installments over a period of five, ten, 15, 20 or 25 years, pursuant to the Annual Installment Method;

provided, however, that such election is filed by the Participant, in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, prior to January 1, 2010. If there is no valid election of an alternative payment form in effect with respect to any portion of an Executive Retirement Contribution Account, such portion shall be distributed in a lump sum.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an employee first becomes eligible for an allocation of an Executive Retirement Contribution on or after January 1, 2010, the Plan Administrator may allow the employee to file an election for an alternative form of distribution (from among those specified in this clause (ii)) no later than 30 days after the date the employee first becomes eligible; provided, however, that such election will be effective only for Executive Retirement Contributions made with respect to Compensation earned for services that are performed following the filing of the election with the Plan Administrator, as determined in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A.

In addition, if a Participant becomes eligible for a different level of Executive Retirement Contribution by reason of a change in the Participant’s position, the Plan Administrator may allow the Participant to elect an alternative form of distribution (from among those specified in this clause (ii)), provided that such election shall be effective only for Executive Retirement Contributions made with respect to Compensation that is earned for services that are performed following the calendar year in which the Participant files the new election with the Plan Administrator, as determined in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A; to the extent an alternative form is not elected, the form of distribution otherwise applicable to such Executive Retirement Contributions shall remain in effect.

15

(c) Subsequent Elections. A Participant may elect to change an election described in Section 2.2 regarding the form or time (or both the form and time) of distribution of a Deferral Period Account, or an election described in Section 4.1(b) regarding the form of distribution of an Executive Retirement Contribution Account, by submitting a written election to the Plan Administrator, in accordance with the Plan Administrator’s rules and procedures, no later than the date established by the Plan Administrator and subject to the following additional requirements:

(i) Such election must be submitted at least 12 months before the date that the distribution is scheduled to be made; and

(ii) The payment with respect to which the election is submitted must be deferred for a period of five years from the date such payment would otherwise have been made. For purposes of this Section 4.1(c)(ii) and Code Section 409A, an installment form of distribution described in Section 4.1(b)(i)(2)(2) shall be treated as a single payment.

(d) Distribution Upon Participant’s Death. Upon the death of the Participant, benefits payable from a Deferral Period Account with respect to which no benefits have been distributed (except as described in Section 4.3), will be distributed (or commence to be distributed) within the 60-day period (on a date determined in the discretion of the Plan Administrator) following his or her death in the form and over the period designated in his or her Deferral Election Form. Upon the Participant’s death after the commencement of benefits from one or more of the Participant’s Deferral Period Accounts, benefits payable with respect to such Account(s) will continue to be distributed in the form and over the period of time designated by the Participant in his or her Deferral Election Form. Benefits payable from an Executive Retirement Contribution Account shall be distributed (or continue to be distributed, if distribution had already commenced) to the Participant’s Beneficiary, in the form and over the period of time otherwise specified under the Plan, following the Participant’s death.

4.2 Distributions To A Specified Employee.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan, a distribution to which a Participant would otherwise be entitled will be delayed until the earlier of: (i) the first day of the month following the expiration of the six (6)-month period from the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations issued under Code Section 409A) with a Participating Employer; or (ii) the date of the Participant’s death, if the Committee in good faith determines that the Participant is a Specified Employee at the time of such separation from service and that the delayed commencement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2). Upon the expiration of the applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2) deferral period, all amounts deferred pursuant to the Plan (whether they would otherwise have been payable in a single sum or in any other form in the absence of such deferral) shall be distributed to the Participant in a lump sum and any other benefits due under the Plan shall be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them under the Plan. The Participant shall be entitled to earnings as determined under Section 3.1 for the period that the commencement is delayed by reason of Code Section 409A(a)(2).

16

4.3 Accelerated Distributions.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, except as provided in Sections 4.2 or 4.4, in the Committee’s discretion, the amount in a Participant’s Accounts may be distributed or commence to be distributed under the following circumstances:

(a) Income Inclusion Under Code Section 409A. If the Plan fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations thereunder, a distribution may be made to the Participant in the amount required to be included in income as a result of the failure to comply with such requirements.

(b) Divestiture. The date of distribution of all or a portion of the value of a Participant’s Accounts may be accelerated to the extent necessary for an employee in the executive branch of the United States federal government to comply with an ethics agreement or to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of an applicable federal, state, local or foreign ethics law or conflicts of interest law.

(c) Financial Hardship. Distribution of all or a portion of a Participant’s Accounts may be made as a result of a Financial Hardship. Such amount must be limited to the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need (which may include amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, local, or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution). Determinations of amounts reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need must take into account any additional compensation that is available under another employee benefit plan that provides for cancellation of a deferral election upon a payment due to an unforeseeable emergency. However, the determination of amounts reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need is not required to take into account any additional compensation that due to the unforeseeable emergency is available under another nonqualified deferred compensation plan but has not actually been paid.

(d) Other. Distribution of all or a portion of the value of a Participant’s Accounts may be accelerated under such circumstances as are permitted pursuant to applicable guidance under Code Section 409A.

4.4 Delayed Distribution.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the Committee’s discretion, the distribution of an amount in a Participant’s Deferred Compensation Accounts may be delayed beyond the date provided under this Article 4 in the following circumstances:

(a) Violation of Applicable Laws. Distribution of all or a portion of the value of a Participant’s Accounts may be delayed in the event the Committee reasonably anticipates that the distribution will violate federal securities laws or other applicable law. Distribution of the amounts delayed under this Section 4.4(a) will be made at the earliest date at which the Committee reasonably anticipates that making the payment will not cause a violation of such law.

17

(b) Administrative Practicality. Distribution of all or a portion of the Participant’s Accounts may be delayed if calculation of the amount of the payment is not administratively practicable (such delay must be due to events that are beyond the control of the Participant). Payment of any delayed amount must be made no later than the first Plan Year in which calculation of such amount is administratively practicable.

(c) Other. Distribution of all or a portion of the value of a Participant’s Accounts may be delayed under such other circumstances as are permitted pursuant to applicable guidance under Code Section 409A.

4.5 Excise Tax And Lost Benefit Makeup.

If as a result of participating in the Plan a Participant is required to pay additional excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or receives a smaller benefit from any other employee benefit plan as a result of limitation imposed by Section 280G of the Code, then a makeup amount shall be payable from the Plan. This amount shall be equal to the amount of Section 4999 excise tax payable and any lost benefit from such other plan due to Section 280G of the Code, as a result of participation in the Plan, plus any excise tax and income taxes payable due to this payment. Any makeup amount that replaces a benefit under another employee benefit plan must be distributed at the time it would have been paid under such plan. The distribution of a makeup amount related to additional taxes that are paid by a Participant is subject to the requirements of Section 4.2 and must be distributed no later than the end of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Participant pays such taxes. The Committee and the Participant shall cooperate in good faith in making such determination and in providing the necessary information for this purpose.

4.6 Limited Period To Elect New Form Or Time Of Payment Of Benefits.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, an individual who is designated as a Participant before January 1, 2009 may elect (to the extent permitted under applicable Treasury Regulations or other Internal Revenue Service or Treasury Department guidance) a new time or form (or a new time and form) of distribution of benefits from his or her Accounts by submitting a written election to the Committee (in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee) no later than the date permitted by the Committee. Such election shall not be treated as a change in the form or time of payment of a Participant’s benefits for purposes of Code Section 409A and Section 4.1(c) of the Plan.

4.7 Withholding on Distributions.

The Company shall withhold, from any amount distributed under the Plan, any taxes required to be withheld from such amount under local, state or federal law.

19

ARTICLE 6

CLAIMS PROCEDURE

6.1 Claims For Benefits And Inquiries.

All claims for benefits and all inquiries concerning the Plan, or concerning present or future rights to benefits under the Plan, shall be submitted to the Plan Administrator in writing. If required by the Plan Administrator, an application for benefits must be made on a form prescribed by the Plan Administrator. The Participant or Beneficiary may authorize a representative to act on his or her behalf in pursuing benefit claims, in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator or the Committee for determining whether an individual is so authorized. All claim determinations shall be made by the Plan Administrator or Committee in accordance with the Plan provisions.

6.2 Denial Of Claims.

In the event any claim for benefits is denied in whole or in part, the Plan Administrator shall notify the applicant of such denial in writing and shall advise the applicant of the right to a review thereof. Such written notice shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant,

(a) specific reasons for the denial,

(b) specific references to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based,

(c) a description of any information or material necessary for the claimant to perfect the application, including an explanation of why such material is necessary, and

(d) an explanation of the Plan’s claims review procedure, the time limits applicable under the procedures and a statement regarding the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on appeal.

Such written notice shall be given to the applicant within 90 days (45 days for a claim for Disability benefits) after the Plan Administrator receives the application, unless special circumstances require an extension of time of up to an additional 90 days (30 days for a Disability benefits claim) for processing the application. A 30-day extension period for a Disability benefits claim may be extended for an additional 30 days. If such an extension of time for processing is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the applicant prior to the termination of the initial 90-day period (45-day or 30-day period for a Disability benefits claim). This notice of extension shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render its decision on the application for benefits.

20

6.3 Requests For A Review.

Any person whose application for benefits is denied in whole or in part, or such person’s authorized representative, may appeal from such denial by submitting to the Committee a request for a review of the application within 60 days (180 days for a Disability benefits claim) after receiving written notice of such denial from the Plan Administrator. If the claimant does not request a review of the determination within such 60-day period (180-day period for a Disability benefits claim), the claimant shall be barred from challenging the determination. The request for a review shall be in writing and shall set forth all of the grounds on which it is based, all facts and documents in support of the request and any other matters which the applicant deems pertinent. The Committee may require the applicant to submit such additional facts, documents or other material as it may deem necessary or appropriate in making its review. The claimant may submit written comments, documents, records and other information related to the benefit claim on appeal. The claimant must be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the benefit claim. A document is considered relevant to the claim if it (i) was relied upon in making the benefit determination; (ii) was submitted, considered or generated in the course of making the benefit determination, without regard as to whether it was relied upon in making the decision; or (iii) demonstrates compliance in making the benefit decision with the requirement that the benefit determination must follow the terms of the Plan and be consistent when applied to similarly situated claimants.

6.4 Decision On Review.

The Committee on appeal must undertake a full and fair review of the claim and consider all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the claimant, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The Committee shall act upon each request for review within 60 days after receipt thereof (45 days for review of a Disability benefits claim) unless special circumstances require an extension of time of up to an additional 60 days (45 days for a Disability benefits claim) for processing the request. If such an extension is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the applicant prior to the end of the initial 60-day period (45-day period for a Disability benefits claim). This notice of extension shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Committee expects to render its decision on the application for benefits. If an extension of time is required due to the claimant’s failure to submit information necessary to review the claim, the period of time that the Committee has to review the claim will be tolled from the date on which the notice of extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for additional information.

Within the time prescribed above, the Committee shall give written notice of its decision to the applicant. In the event that the Committee confirms the denial of the application for benefits in whole or in part, such notice shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant,

(a) the specific reasons for such denial,

21

(b) specific references to the Plan provisions on which the decision is based,

(c) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the benefit claim. A document is considered relevant to the claim if it (i) was relied upon in making the benefit determination; (ii) was submitted, considered or generated in the course of making the benefit determination, without regard as to whether it was relied upon in making the decision; or (iii) demonstrates compliance in making the benefit decision with the requirement that the benefit determination must follow the terms of the Plan and be consistent when applied to similarly situated claimants, and

(d) a description of any voluntary appeal procedures offered under the Plan, the claimant’s right to obtain information about such procedures and a statement regarding the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on appeal.

In the event that the Committee determines that the application for benefits should not have been denied in whole or in part, the Committee shall take appropriate remedial action as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

6.5 Rules And Procedures.

The Committee may establish such rules and procedures, consistent with the Plan and with ERISA, as it may deem necessary or appropriate in carrying out its responsibilities under this Article 6. The Committee may require an applicant who wishes to submit additional information in connection with an appeal from the denial of benefits in whole or in part to do so at the applicant’s own expense.

6.6 Exhaustion Of Remedies.

No legal action for benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless and until the applicant (a) has submitted a written claim for benefits in accordance with Section 6.1; (b) has been notified by the Plan Administrator that the application is denied; (c) has filed a written request for a review of the application in accordance with Section 6.3; and (d) has been notified in writing that the Committee has affirmed the denial of the application. However, an action may not be brought by the claimant under Section 502(a) of ERISA if the claimant fails to bring such claim within the period prescribed by law.

ARTICLE 7

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

7.1 Amendment.

Subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A, the Board may at any time amend the Plan by written instrument (including a retroactive amendment required to comply with Code section 409A), provided that no amendment shall reduce the value of a Participant’s Accounts as of the date of the amendment. In addition, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company(or his or her delegate) may adopt such amendments to the Plan that he or she (or his or her delegate) deem necessary or appropriate under the following circumstances: (i) to insure that the Plan meets the requirements of applicable law; (ii) to revise routine day-to-day procedures under which the Plan is operated; or (iii) to restate the Plan document to incorporate prior amendments.

7.2 Company’s Right To Terminate.

Subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A, the Board may at any time terminate the Plan. Such termination will not reduce the value of a Participant’s Accounts as of the date of termination.

(a) The termination and liquidation of the Plan must not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Company;

(b) The Company must terminate and liquidate all other arrangements required to be aggregated under such regulations;

(c) No distributions may be made during the twelve months following the date the Company takes all necessary actions to terminate and liquidate the Plan (other than amounts that would have been distributed if such actions had not been taken) and all benefits must be distributed no later than the end of the twenty four month period following the date the company takes such actions; and

(d) No new plan may be adopted to the extent required under such regulations.

23

ARTICLE 8

MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Unfunded Plan.

This plan is an unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for a select group of “management or highly-compensated employees” within the meaning of Sections 201, 301, and 401 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and therefore is exempt from the provisions of Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA. Accordingly, to the extent permitted under Code Section 409A, the Board may remove certain employees as Participants if it is determined by the United States Department of Labor, a court of competent jurisdiction, or an opinion of counsel that the Plan constitutes an employee pension benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA (as currently in effect or hereafter amended) which is not so exempt.

8.2 Unsecured General Creditor.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, Participants and Participants’ Beneficiary shall be unsecured general creditors, with no secured or preferential rights to any assets of Company or any other party for payment of benefits under this Plan. Any property held by Company with respect to the Plan, including property for the purpose of generating the cash flow for benefit payments, shall remain the Company’s general, unpledged and unrestricted assets and shall remain subject to the claims of the Company’s general unsecured creditors. The Company’s obligation under the Plan shall be an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future.

8.3 Establishment Of, And Contributions To, The Trust.

The Company will enter into a Trust Agreement with a trustee selected by the Company under which a Trust will be established. In the discretion of the Company, the Company may contribute to the Trust all or a portion of the amounts credited to Accounts under the Plan. In addition, such amounts will be contributed to the Trust to the extent required under the Trust Agreement. Within 30 days following a Change In Control Of The Company, any amount credited to the Account of a Participant (or his or her Beneficiary) that has not previously been contributed to the Trust will be so contributed. Within 30 days following a Change In Control Of A Bank Subsidiary, any amount credited to the Account of a Participant who is a current or former employee of such Bank Subsidiary (or his or her Beneficiary) that has not previously been contributed to the Trust will be so contributed. A current (or former employee) of a corporation in which the Bank Subsidiary owns 100% of the common stock immediately prior to the Change In Control of the Bank Subsidiary will be considered an employee (or former employee) under the previous sentence. Although the Trust shall be irrevocable, its assets shall be held for payment of all Company’s general creditors in the event of the Company’s bankruptcy or insolvency. To the extent any benefits provided under the Plan are paid from the Trust, the Company shall have no further obligation to pay them. If not paid from the Trust, such benefits shall remain the obligation of Company.

24

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the Trust Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall a contribution be made to the Trust for the purpose of paying any amount to an “applicable covered employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A(b)(3)(D)(i)) during any “restricted period” (as defined in Code Section 409A(b)(3)(B)), if such contribution would result in the imposition of any taxes, penalties or interest on such applicable covered employee under Code Section 409A(b)(3).

8.4 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 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 or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency.

8.5 No Contract Of Employment.

This Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment between Company and the Participant. Nothing in this Plan shall give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discipline or discharge a Participant at any time.

8.6 Protective Provisions.

A Participant will cooperate with Company by furnishing any and all information requested by Company, in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder, and by taking such physical examinations as Company may deem necessary and taking such other action as may be requested by Company.

8.7 Governing Law.

The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted under ERISA or other applicable federal law, or, to the extent not preempted by ERISA (or other federal law), to the laws of the State of Delaware.

8.8 Validity.

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

8.9 Notice.

Any notice required or permitted under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by registered or certified mail. Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date

25

of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification. Mailed notice to the Committee or the Plan Administrator shall be directed to the Company’s address. Mailed notice to a Participant or Beneficiary shall be directed to the individual’s last known address in company’s records.

8.10 Successors.

The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of Company and its successors and assigns. The term successors as used herein shall include any corporate or other business entity which shall, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the business and assets of Company, and successors of any such corporation or other business entity.

8.11 Code Section 409A.

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no distributions will be made under the Plan earlier or later than permitted under the requirements of Code Section 409A and no elections to defer Compensation shall be permitted, unless they are permissible under such requirements. This Plan is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A and shall be interpreted and administered in a manner that is consistent with such intent. If there is any inconsistency between the provisions of the Plan and the requirements of Code Section 409A, as interpreted by the Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service in guidance issued thereunder, the provisions of the Plan shall be applied in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A.
