PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS

3.1 Elective Deferrals.

(a) General. A Participant may elect to reduce his Covered Pay prospectively by any whole percentage between 1% and 75%, on a payroll period basis, and have such amounts contributed on his behalf to the Plan as Elective Deferrals. A Participant may designate all or a portion of such Elective Deferrals as Roth Contributions, and any such designation shall be irrevocable once the Elective Deferral provided for therein has been effected, provided that such designation may be changed prospectively by the Participant by submitting a new Elective Deferral Agreement. In the absence of such designation, any such Elective Deferrals shall be Pre-Tax Contributions. The portion of a Participant’s Elective Deferrals that are Catch-up

14

Contributions shall not be taken into account for purposes of the provisions of the Plan implementing the required limitations of Code Section 415. The Plan shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the provisions of the Plan implementing the requirements of Code Sections 401(k)(3), 401(k)(11), 401(k)(12), 410(b), or 416, as applicable, by reason of the making of Catch-up Contributions. Roth Contributions by the Participant are included in the Participant’s gross income pursuant to applicable federal income tax law. Automatic increases in Elective Deferrals shall be permitted.

(b) Payroll Withholding. Each Participating Employer shall reduce a Participant’s Covered Pay, on a payroll period basis, in an amount equal to the Elective Deferrals specified under the Participant’s Elective Deferral Agreement and remit such amounts to the Trust.

(c) Remittance of Elective Deferrals to Trust. The Participating Employer shall pay, or shall cause to pay, to the Trustee its Elective Deferrals as of the earliest date on which such amounts can reasonably be segregated from the Participating Employer’s general assets, which date shall not be later than the 15th business day of the month following the month containing the date on which such amounts would otherwise have been payable to the Participants in cash.

(d) Allocation. Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions made on behalf of a Participant for a payroll period shall be allocated to the Participant’s Pre-Tax Sub-Account or Roth Sub-Account, as the case may be, established in accordance with Section 6.1, as soon as administratively practicable following their receipt by the Trustee.

(e) Elective Deferral Limit. A Participant’s Elective Deferrals, together with his other elective deferrals (as defined in Code Section 402(g)(3)) under any other plan sponsored or maintained by the Employer for any taxable year of the Participant, shall not exceed the amount set forth in Code Section 402(g)(1), as adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury. For the sake of clarity, in the case of a Participant who will be at least age 50 on or before the last day of the taxable year, the amount set forth in Code Section 402(g)(1) for such taxable year is the combined amounts under Code Sections 402(g)(1)(B) and 402(g)(1)(C), as adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury. The BAC may limit a Participant’s Elective Deferrals as necessary to comply with the foregoing limit. Any amount contributed to the Plan by a Participating Employer on behalf of a Participant for any Plan Year that is in excess of the limitations set forth in this subsection, adjusted for earnings, gains, and losses allocable thereto, shall be paid directly to the Participant within the time period set forth in Code Section 402(g)(2). If a Participant has excess Elective Deferrals for a taxable year, the distribution of such excess shall be comprised first of Roth Contributions, if any, and then, to the extent an excess remains, from Pre-Tax Contributions.

(f) Elective Deferral Authorization, Suspension. A Participant may authorize Elective Deferrals under Section 3.1(a) at a rate which would exceed the legal maximum dollar amount in effect under Code Section 402(g)(1) for the calendar year, unless otherwise restricted by the BAC. However, a Participant’s Elective Deferrals shall be suspended during the Plan Year if and at the time the Participant’s aggregate Elective Deferrals for the calendar year, together with any elective contributions made under any other plan of the Employer for the calendar year, would exceed the maximum dollar amount in effect under Code Section 402(g)(1) for the calendar year.

(i) shows the first year of the five year period described in Code Section 402A(d)(2)(B) and the portion of the distribution that consists of the Participant’s Roth contributions (i.e., the Participant’s “tax basis”); or

(f) A Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee shall only be permitted to transfer (by exchange, rebalancing or otherwise) any portion of his Account that is invested in an Investment Fund other than the Company Stock Fund to the Company Stock Fund, to the extent that doing so will not cause the percentage of the Participant’s, Beneficiary’s or Alternate Payee’s Account that is invested in the Company Stock Fund to exceed twenty percent (20%) of his Account.

The Trustee shall take reasonable efforts to retain approximately between 0.5% and 3% of the total value of such fund as of any Valuation Date in cash. Cash held by the Company Stock Fund shall be invested in a money market fund or in such other manner as the BIC may from time to time approve.

(b) The Company Stock Fund shall, to the extent possible, regardless of market fluctuations, purchase, retain and sell Company Stock only to permit distributions and transfers from and investments in the Company Stock Fund.

Subject to Section 17.24(d), dividends and other distributions (if any) received by the Plan with respect to Company Stock held for the Company Stock Fund shall be reinvested in the Company Stock Fund by the Trustee.

(c) All voting, tender and similar rights appurtenant to Company Stock allocated to a Participant’s Account shall be passed through to the Participant. The Participant shall direct the Trustee as to the exercise of such rights and, upon timely receipt of a valid direction, the Trustee shall exercise such rights as directed by the Participant in accordance with the Trust Agreement, except in the case where the Trustee determines that to do so would be inconsistent with the provisions of Title I of ERISA. In the absence of a timely and valid

22

affirmative exercise of voting rights by a Participant, Company Stock allocated to a Participant’s Account will be voted in the same proportions as Company Stock for which the Trustee has received timely and valid instructions from Participants, except in the case where the Trustee determines that to do so would be inconsistent with the provisions of Title I of ERISA. With respect to the exercise of all other rights appurtenant to Company Stock allocated to a Participant’s Account, including tender offer rights, a Participant who does not issue valid directions to the Trustee to sell, offer to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of such shares shall be deemed to have directed the Trustee not to sell, offer to sell, exchange, dispose of or take any other affirmative action with respect to such shares, except in the case where the Trustee determines that to do so would be inconsistent with the provisions of Title I of ERISA.

The BAC is hereby designated as the fiduciary responsible for ensuring that these confidentiality procedures are adequate and are followed. In the event that the BAC determines that a particular situation exists which involves a potential for undue influence by a Participating Employer upon Participants and Beneficiaries with respect to the exercise of rights appurtenant to Company Stock held in the Company Stock Fund, the BAC shall designate an independent fiduciary, who shall not be a director, officer, employee or affiliate of the Company, to assume responsibility for all activities under this Section 7.6.

(e) All investments in the Company Stock Fund by Participants shall comply with the requirements of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. 78p and accompanying rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, Participants are bound by and shall at all times comply with the insider trading policies of the Company with respect to all investment decisions concerning the Company Stock Fund.

(f) Investment by Participants, Beneficiaries and Alternate Payees in the Company Stock Fund shall at all times be subject to such additional restriction and administrative procedures as may from time to time be imposed by the BAC.

(a) Subject to subsection (b), distribution of a Participant’s Prior Pension Sub-Account shall be made in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. The amount of benefit payable under the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity shall be the amount of benefit that may be provided by the Participant’s vested Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account (or, if the Participant requests a partial distribution of his vested Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account, such portion) through the purchase of an annuity from an insurance company. The amount of benefit payable under the Qualified Optional Annuity shall be the amount of benefit that may be provided by the Participant’s vested Prior Pension Sub-Account (or, if the Participant requests a partial distribution of his vested Prior Pension Sub-Account, such portion) through the purchase of such an annuity from an insurance company.

(b) A Participant whose vested Account (including his Pre-Tax Rollover Sub-Account and Roth Rollover Sub-Account) exceeds one thousand dollars ($1,000) may elect to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity (with the consent of his Spouse, if he is married) or Qualified Optional Survivor Annuity and instead receive his Account in an alternate form described in Section 11.3. To be effective, the Spouse’s consent shall satisfy the following requirements:

(i) The Spouse’s consent shall be witnessed by a notary public.

(ii) The Spouse’s consent shall acknowledge the effect of the election.

(iii) Spousal consent is not required if the Participant establishes to the satisfaction of the BAC that the consent of the Spouse cannot be obtained because there is no Spouse or the Spouse cannot be located.

(iv) A Spouse’s consent under this Section shall not be valid with respect to any other Spouse.

(v) A Participant may revoke a prior election without the consent of the Spouse. Any new election will require a new Spouse’s consent, unless the consent of the Spouse expressly permits such election by the Participant without further consent by the Spouse.

38

(c) If a Participant has a Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account, in addition to the explanation described in Section 11.3(d), the BAC shall furnish to the Participant a written explanation with respect to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity that describes the following: (i) the terms and conditions of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and the material features and relative values of the other forms of payment available under the Plan; (ii) the Participant’s right to make, and the effect of, an election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, including the financial effect upon the Participant’s benefit of electing not to have benefits distributed in accordance with the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; (iii) the rights of the Participant’s Spouse; and (iv) the right to revoke an election and the effect of such a revocation.

11.6 Timing and Notice Requirements. The BAC shall provide the written explanations described in Sections 11.3(d) and 11.5(c) within the 150-day period ending thirty (30) days before the Participant’s benefit commencement date. A Participant may elect, modify, or change an election of an optional form of payment by written notice delivered to the BAC at any time after receipt of the written explanations and up to one hundred and eighty (180) days before his benefit commencement date.

Except as otherwise provided herein, distributions shall commence no sooner than thirty (30) days after the written explanations described in Sections 11.3(d) and 11.5(c) are provided to the Participant. However, distribution may commence fewer than thirty (30) days after the explanations are provided if (i) the BAC clearly informs the Participant in writing that the Participant has a right to a period of at least thirty (30) days after receiving the explanations to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a particular distribution option); and (ii) the Participant, after receiving the explanations, affirmatively elects a distribution.

11.7 Required Minimum Distributions. The Participant’s entire interest will begin to be distributed to the Participant no later than the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. Distributions subject to this Section 11.7 shall be subject to Code Section 401(a)(9). If a married Participant has a Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account as of his or her Required Beginning Date, and spousal consent is required for payment in a form other than the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the Plan shall make any required minimum distributions from the Participant’s Account other than the Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account, to the extent possible. After all of a Participant’s Account other than the Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account is exhausted, required minimum distributions shall be made from the Participant’s Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account. At that time, (A) if it is permissible under Code Section 411(a)(11), the Participant’s Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account shall be paid to the Participant in a single lump sum payment; and (B) if it is not permissible at that time to make a single lump sum payment to the Participant, required minimum distributions shall be paid to the Participant in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity as provided in Section 11.5. Any partial withdrawal that a Participant receives from his Account for a Plan Year for which a required minimum distribution is payable shall be applied towards the required minimum distribution for such Plan Year, provided that the Participant requests such partial withdrawal sufficiently in advance to afford the Plan sufficient time to make the required minimum distribution for such Plan Year.

39

(a) directly to such Participant; or

(b) to such Participant’s legal representative, including but not limited to a court-appointed guardian, a person with a valid power of attorney or a minor Participant’s custodian.

Any payment made pursuant to this Section shall be in complete discharge of the obligation therefore under the Plan.

11.9 Inability to Locate Payee. If after making reasonable efforts (including mailing a notice to the last known address of the Participant or other payee under the Plan, and/or using a commercial locator service, credit reporting agency and/or internet search tools), the Plan is unable to locate a Participant or other payee to whom payment of an Account under the Plan is due, such Account may be forfeited; provided, however, that any payment so forfeited shall be reinstated (without an earnings credit) if the Participant or other payee is subsequently located or identified.

(b) Married Participant. Upon the death of a married Participant prior to the distribution of his entire Account (other than the Prior Plan Pension Sub-Account), the BAC shall direct the Trustee to make payment of the vested portion of the balance of the Participant’s Account to the Participant’s surviving Spouse unless, prior to his death, the Participant had designated an alternate Beneficiary, with the consent of his Spouse (in accordance with subsections (c) and (d) below) or it is established to the satisfaction of the BAC that the Participant has no Spouse or that such Spouse cannot be located, or under such other circumstances as may be provided by the Code or applicable regulations thereunder.

(c) Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant shall designate a person, persons or entity as Beneficiary to receive the death benefit provided under this Article, by submitting to the BAC a signed instrument in a written or electronic form acceptable to the BAC. A Participant may designate both a primary beneficiary and a contingent beneficiary. A married Participant must designate his/her Spouse as Beneficiary, unless the spouse irrevocably consents to another Beneficiary. The last such Beneficiary designation received by the BAC in a form acceptable to the BAC shall serve to revoke all prior designations and be effective. The BAC shall use its best efforts to notify Participants if their Beneficiary designation form cannot be located or is unacceptable.

40

(d) Spouse’s Consent. A Spouse’s consent to a Participant’s designation of a non-Spouse Beneficiary shall acknowledge its effect, be made on a form acceptable to the BAC, and be witnessed by a notary public and be filed with the BAC. Any Beneficiary designation consented to by a Spouse pursuant to this subsection shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only with respect to such Spouse. Any Beneficiary designation may be revoked at any time by the Participant, but the designated non-Spouse Beneficiary may not be changed by the Participant without the consent of the Participant’s Spouse in accordance with this subsection.

(e) Missing or Invalid Beneficiary Designation. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary, if such designation is determined by the BAC to be invalid for any reason, or if no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant, his Account shall be paid:

(i) to his surviving Spouse (if he is married);

(ii) if there is no surviving Spouse, to his children, per stirpes;

(iii) if there are no children, to his parents;

(iv) if there are no parents, to his duly appointed and qualified executor or other personal representative of the Participant to be distributed in accordance with the Participant’s will or applicable intestacy law; or

(v) in the event that there shall be no such representative duly appointed and qualified within six (6) months after the date of death of such deceased Participant, then to such persons as, at the date of his death, would be entitled to share in the distribution of such deceased Participant’s personal estate under the provisions of the applicable statute then in force governing the descent of intestate property, in the proportions specified in such statute.

(f) As soon as practicable after the death of the Participant, his Beneficiary shall designate a beneficiary for the payment of any unpaid portion of the Participant’s death benefit upon the Beneficiary’s death, absent designation by the Participant of a contingent Beneficiary to receive distribution in such event. If the Beneficiary fails to designate a beneficiary, if such designation is for any reason illegal or ineffective, or if no beneficiary survives the Beneficiary, and the Participant has not designated a contingent Beneficiary to receive payment in the event of the Beneficiary’s death, the Participant’s unpaid death benefit shall be paid:

(i) to the Beneficiary’s children, per stirpes;

(ii) if no children, to the Beneficiary’s parents;

(iii) if no parents, to the Beneficiary’s duly appointed and qualified executor or other personal representative of the Beneficiary to be distributed in accordance with the Beneficiary’s will or applicable intestacy law; or

41

(iv) in the event that there shall be no such representative duly appointed and qualified within six (6) months after the date of death of such deceased Beneficiary, then to such persons as, at the date of his death, would be entitled to share in the distribution of such deceased Beneficiary’s personal estate under the provisions of the applicable statute then in force governing the descent of intestate property, in the proportions specified in such statute.

A beneficiary of a Beneficiary under this subsection shall be permitted to receive the death benefit in the same manner and method of payment as a Beneficiary under Sections 12.3 and 12.4(a), except as required to comply with Code Section 401(a)(9) and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder.

(g) If a Beneficiary entitled to payment under this Plan wishes to disclaim the payment, the Beneficiary shall provide the BAC with a signed waiver and release. Following receipt of the waiver and release, the Plan will make payment to the individual designated by the disclaimant in the release, or if no individual is so designated, to the individual who would be entitled to the benefit if the disclaimant died before payment had been fully made. The Plan does not permit partial disclaimers of payments under this Plan.

(h) The BAC may determine the identity of the distributees of any death benefit payable under the Plan and in so doing may act and rely upon any information it may deem reliable upon reasonable inquiry, and upon any affidavit, certificate, or other paper believed by it to be genuine, and upon any evidence believed by it sufficient.

12.2 Timing of Payment. This Section shall apply to a Participant’s Account.

(a) Election to Commence. Subject to subsections (b) and (c), payment shall be made or commence as soon as practicable after the death of the Participant, upon the Beneficiary’s election to commence benefits.

(b) A Participant may waive the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity or revoke a waiver of the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity at any time and any number of times during the election period. An election shall be effective only if it meets the consent requirements below.

44

(i) A Participant may waive the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity with the consent of his Spouse (described in subsection (b)(ii) below) within the period beginning on the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age thirty-five (35) or, if he incurs a Severance From Employment prior to such date, his Severance From Employment date. A Participant who has not incurred a Severance From Employment may waive the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity prior to the Plan Year in which he attains age thirty-five (35); provided, however, that such election shall cease to be effective as of the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 35. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant’s election to waive the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity may not be made before the date the Participant is provided the explanation described in subsection (c) below.

(ii) A Participant’s waiver of the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall only be effective if complies with the following spousal consent rules:

(A) The Spouse’s consent shall be witnessed by a notary public.

(B) The Spouse’s consent must acknowledge the effect of the election, including that the Spouse had the right to limit consent only to a specific Beneficiary, if applicable, and that the relinquishment of such right was voluntary. Unless the consent of the Spouse expressly permits designations by the Participant without a requirement of further consent by the Spouse, the Spouse’s consent shall be limited to the Beneficiary, class of Beneficiaries, or contingent Beneficiary named in the election.

(C) Spousal consent shall not be required if the Participant establishes to the satisfaction of the BAC that the consent of the Spouse cannot be obtained because there is no Spouse or the Spouse cannot be located.

(D) A Spouse’s consent under this Section shall not be valid with respect to any other spouse.

(E) A Participant may revoke a prior election without the consent of the Spouse, provided that any new election shall require a new Spouse’s consent, unless the consent of the Spouse expressly permits such election by the Participant without further consent by the Spouse.

(c) The BAC will provide the Participant with a written explanation with respect to the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity describing the following: (A) the terms and conditions of the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity; (B) the Participant’s right to make, and the effect of, an election to waive the Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity; (C) the rights of the Participant’s Spouse; and (D) the right to revoke an election and the effect of such a revocation.

13.7 Claims Procedures.

(a) Claims for Benefits. Each Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee or any other person or entity claiming rights in connection with the Plan (“Claimant”) shall be entitled to file a written claim for benefits under the Plan with the BAC. A Claimant shall furnish the BAC with such documents, evidence, data, or information in support of his claim as he considers necessary or desirable. A Claimant may appoint a representative to pursue any claim or appeal of an adverse benefit determination on his behalf, provided that he furnishes the BAC with a written notice, signed by the Claimant, authorizing the representative to act on his behalf in pursuing a benefit claim or appeal.

48

(b) Initial Claim Review. The BAC shall review the claim when filed and advise the Claimant as to whether the claim is approved or denied. If the claim is wholly or partially denied, the BAC shall furnish a written or electronic denial within a reasonable period of time, but not later than 90 days after receipt of the claim by the Plan, unless the BAC determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If the BAC determines that an extension of time for processing a claim is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the expiration of the initial 90-day period, which shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which Plan expects to render a decision. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of 90 days from the end of the initial period. If the BAC denies the claim for a benefit in whole or in part, the BAC shall provide the Claimant a written or electronic notice of the adverse benefit determination. The notification shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, (1) the specific reason or reasons for the adverse benefit determination; (2) reference to the specific Plan provisions on which the determination is based; (3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; (4) a description of the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a) following an adverse benefit determination on review.

(c) Appeal of adverse benefit determination. If the claim is denied, a Claimant may appeal the denial of the claim to the BAC within 60 days after receipt of the adverse benefit determination. The appeal shall be in writing addressed to the BAC and shall state the reason why the BAC should grant the appeal. The Claimant may submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to his claim for benefits. Upon request, the Claimant shall be provided free of charge and reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to his claim, as determined under subsection (f). The BAC shall conduct a full and fair review of the claim that takes into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant or his authorized representative relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The review shall not afford deference to the initial benefit determination and shall be conducted by one or more individuals who are neither those who made the adverse benefit determination that is the subject of the appeal, nor the subordinates of such individuals.

(d) Timing of Appeal on Review. The BAC shall notify the Claimant of the determination on review within a reasonable period of time, but not later than 60 days after receipt of the appeal unless the BAC determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If the BAC determines that an extension of time for processing is required, the BAC shall notify the Claimant in writing prior to the termination of the initial 60-day period, indicating the special circumstances that require an extension of time and the date the Plan expects to render a determination on appeal. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of 60 days from the end of such initial period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the BAC holds quarterly meetings, the BAC shall instead make a benefit determination no later than the

49

date of the meeting that immediately follows the Plan’s receipt of a request for review, unless the request for review is filed within 30 days preceding the date of such meeting. In such case, a benefit determination may be made no later than the date of the second meeting following the Plan’s receipt of the request for review. If special circumstances (such as the need to hold a hearing) require a further extension of time for processing, a benefit determination shall be rendered not later than the third meeting of the BAC following the Plan’s receipt of the request for review. If such an extension of time for review is required because of special circumstances, the BAC shall provide the Claimant with written notice of the extension, describing the special circumstances and the date as of which the benefit determination will be made, prior to the commencement of the extension. The BAC shall notify the Claimant of the benefit determination as soon as possible, but not later than 15 days after the benefit determination is made.

(e) Denial on Appeal. If the BAC denies the claim on appeal, it shall furnish the Claimant a written or electronic adverse benefit determination, stating the reasons for the denial in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and shall make specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the benefit determination is based. The notification of the benefit determination also shall include a statement of the Claimant’s right to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the Claimant’s claim for benefits and to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA no later than one (1) year after the final adverse determination on appeal. The BAC’s decision upon appeal, or the BAC’s initial decision if no appeal is taken, shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties.

(f) Relevant documents and records. For purposes of the foregoing claim procedures, a document, record or other information is “relevant” if it: (i) was relied on in making the claim decision; (ii) was submitted, considered or generated in making the decision; or (iii) demonstrates compliance with the Plan’s procedural and administrative safeguards.

(g) Exhaustion of Claims Procedures. Completion of the claims procedures described in this Section 13.7 is a condition precedent to the commencement of any legal or equitable action in connection with a claim for benefits under the Plan by any current or former Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee or any other person or entity claiming rights in connection with the Plan. After exhaustion of the Plan’s claims procedures, any further legal action taken against the Plan or its fiduciaries by the Claimant for benefits under the Plan shall be filed in a court of law in accordance with Section 17.5 no later than one (1) year after the final adverse determination on appeal. No action at law or in equity shall be brought to recover benefits under this Plan until the appeal rights provided in this Section 13.7 have been exercised and the Plan benefits requested in such appeal have been denied in whole or in part.

ARTICLE XIV

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

14.1 Amendment of Plan.

50

Such resolution or written instrument shall specify the effective date of termination or permanent discontinuance, which shall not be earlier than the day of which includes the date of the resolution or written instrument.

14.3 Payments on Termination of or Permanent Discontinuance of Contributions to the Plan. If the Plan is terminated as herein provided, or if it should be partially terminated, or upon the complete discontinuance of Company contributions to the Plan, the following procedure shall be followed, except that, in the event of a partial termination, it shall be followed only in cases of those Participants and Beneficiaries directly affected:

(a) Each Participant shall become 100% vested in the balance of his Account, provided that the forfeitable percentage of the unpaid balance of such Account of a Participant whose employment has terminated and who has incurred a one-year Break in Service on the date of such Plan termination or discontinuance of contributions shall be forfeited on the effective date of such termination or discontinuance of contributions and shall not be vested.

(b) Distribution to Participants and Beneficiaries shall be made at such time after termination of or discontinuance of contributions to the Plan as shall be determined by the BAC.

14.4 Merger, Consolidation or Sale of the Company. In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other entity, or in the event substantially all of the assets of the Company shall be transferred to another entity, the successor entity resulting from the consolidation or merger, or transfer of such assets, as the case may be, may adopt and continue the Plan and succeed to the position of the Company hereunder with the consent of the Company. Nothing in this Plan shall prevent the consolidation or merger of the Company, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets.

In the event that a Prior Plan Participant has a loan outstanding under a Prior Plan at the time the Trustee receives a direct transfer of such Prior Plan Participant’s accounts from the trustee under the Prior Plan, such loan shall be assigned to, and assumed by, the Trustee.

TOP-HEAVY PROVISIONS

16.1 Top-Heavy Status. The provisions of this Article shall not apply to the Plan with respect to any Plan Year for which the Plan is not a Top-Heavy Plan. If the Plan is or becomes a Top-Heavy Plan in any Plan Year, the provisions of this Article will supersede any conflicting provisions elsewhere in the Plan.

16.2 Definitions. For purposes of this Article, the following words and phrases shall have the meanings stated below unless a different meaning is required by the context:

(b) The minimum contribution allocable pursuant to this Section will be determined without regard to any contributions by the Company for any Employee under the Federal Social Security Act.

(c) A Non-Key Employee will not be excluded from an allocation pursuant to this Section merely because his Compensation is less than a stated amount. A Non-Key Employee who has become a Participant but who fails to complete a Year of Eligibility Service in a Plan Year in which the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan shall not be excluded from an allocation pursuant to this Section. A Non-Key Employee who is a Participant in the Plan and who declined to elect to have Elective Deferrals made to the Plan for the Plan Year shall receive an allocation for that Plan Year pursuant to this Section.

MISCELLANEOUS

17.1 Duty To Furnish Information and Documents. Participants, Beneficiaries and Alternate Payees shall furnish to the BAC and the Trustee such evidence, data or information as the BAC considers necessary or desirable for the purpose of administering the Plan, and the provisions of the Plan for each person are applicable upon the condition that he will furnish promptly full, true, and complete evidence, data, and information requested by the BAC. All parties to, or claiming any interest under, the Plan hereby agree to perform any and all acts, and to execute any and all documents and papers, necessary or desirable for carrying out the Plan and the Trust.

17.2 BAC’s Statements and Available Information. The BAC shall cause Eligible Employees to be advised of the eligibility requirements and benefits under the Plan. As soon as practicable after making the valuations and allocations provided for in the Plan, once each calendar quarter and at such other times as the BAC may determine, the BAC shall cause each Participant, Beneficiary and Alternate Payee with respect to whom an Account is maintained, to be provided with a statement reflecting the current status of his Account, including the balance thereof. No Participant, except a member of the BAC, shall have the right to inspect the records reflecting the Account of any other Participant. The BAC shall make available for inspection at reasonable times by Participants, Beneficiaries and Alternate Payees copies of the Plan, any amendments thereto, the summary plan description, and all reports of Plan and Trust operations that are required by law.

17.3 No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed as a contract of employment between the Employer and any person, nor shall the Plan be deemed to give any person the right to be retained in the employ of the Employer or limit the right of the Employer to employ or discharge any person with or without cause, or to discipline any Employee.

17.4 Applicable Law. All questions pertaining to the validity, construction and administration of the Plan shall be determined in conformity with the laws of Delaware to the extent that such laws are not preempted by ERISA and Regulations promulgated thereunder.

17.5 Forum Selection and Limitations on Actions. Any action brought to enforce any claim or to obtain any benefit under this Plan shall be litigated exclusively in the State courts of the State in which the Participant was last employed by a Participating Employer or any United States District Court of the State in which the Participant was last employed by a Participating Employer.

54

17.6 No Guarantee. None of the Employer, Trustee, BIC or BAC in any way guarantees the Trust Fund from loss or depreciation or the payment of any benefits that may be or become due to any person from the Trust Fund. No Participant or other person shall have any recourse against the Employer, Trustee, GBOC or BAC if the Trust Fund is insufficient to provide Plan benefits in full. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to give any Participant, former Participant, or Beneficiary an interest in any specific part of the Trust Fund or any other interest except the right to receive benefits out of the Trust Fund in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and Trust.

17.7 Unclaimed Funds. Each Participant shall keep the BAC informed of his current address and the current address of his Beneficiary or Beneficiaries. None of the BAC, Trustee or Employer shall be obligated to search for the whereabouts of any person, except as required by law.

17.8 Merger or Consolidation of Plan. Any merger or consolidation of the Plan with another Plan, or transfer of Plan assets or liabilities to any other Plan, shall be effected in accordance with ERISA Section 208 and related Regulations, in such a manner that each Participant in the Plan would receive, if the merged, consolidated or transferee Plan were terminated immediately following such event, a benefit that is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive if the Plan had terminated immediately before such event.

17.9 Interest Nontransferable.

(a) Except as provided in Article IX and in this Section, no interest of any person or entity in, or right to receive distributions from, the Trust Fund shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive distributions be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such person or entity, including claims in bankruptcy proceedings. The Account of any Participant, however, shall be subject to and payable in accordance with the applicable requirements of any qualified domestic relations order, as that term is defined in Code Section 414(p), and the BAC shall direct the Trustee to provide for payment from a Participant’s Account in accordance with such order and with the provisions of Code Section 414(p) and any Regulations promulgated thereunder. A payment from a Participant’s Account may be made to an Alternate Payee prior to the date the Participant reaches his earliest retirement age (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(4)(B)) if such payments are made pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. All such payments pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order shall be subject to reasonable procedures respecting the time of payment pursuant to such order and the valuation of the Participant’s Account from which payment is made; provided that all such payments are made in accordance with such order and Code Section 414(p). The balance of an Account that is subject to any qualified domestic relations order shall be reduced by the amount of any payment made pursuant to such order.

(b) To the extent permitted under Code Section 401(a)(13)(C), the Account of any Participant may also be offset by an amount set forth in a court order or requirement to pay that arises from (i) a judgment of conviction for a crime involving the Plan, (ii) a civil judgment (or consent to order or decree) that is entered by a court in an action brought in connection with a breach (or alleged breach) of a fiduciary duty under ERISA, or (iii) a settlement agreement entered into by the Participant with either the Secretary of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation in connection with a breach of fiduciary duty under ERISA by a fiduciary or any other person.

55

(c) Notwithstanding subsection (b) above, if any Participant borrows money pursuant to Article IX, the Trustee and the BAC shall have all rights to collect upon such indebtedness as are granted pursuant to Article IX and any agreements or documents executed in connection with such loan.

17.10 Prudent Man Rule. The Trustee, the BAC, the BIC and the Company shall exercise their powers and discharge their duties under this Plan and Trust Agreement for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to Participants and their Beneficiaries, and shall act with the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances that a prudent man acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims.

17.11 Limitations on Liability. None of the Company, Trustee, BIC or BAC or any member thereof, any Participating Employer or any individual acting as an employee or agent of any of them shall be liable to any Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan, except when the same shall have been judicially determined.

17.12 Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each individual acting as an Employee or agent of the Company, including Committee members, from any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of any actual or alleged act or failure to act with respect to the administration of the Plan, except that no indemnification or defense shall be provided to any person with respect to conduct which has been judicially determined, or agreed by the parties, to have constituted bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such person, or to have resulted in his receipt of personal profit or advantage to which he is not entitled. In connection with the indemnification provided by the preceding sentence, expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding, or incurred in connection with a civil or criminal investigation, may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, proceeding, or investigation, as authorized by the Company in the specific case, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the party to be indemnified to repay such amount, unless it shall ultimately be determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to this Section. The preceding provisions of this Section shall not apply to any claims, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses arising out of any actual or alleged act or failure to act of a Participant, or any individual acting as an employee or agent of a Participant, in the selection of investment media for his Account, or the investment of the assets in his Account.

17.13 Headings. The headings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construction of the provisions hereof.

56

17.14 Gender and Number. Except when otherwise required by the context, any masculine terminology in this document shall include the feminine, and any singular terminology shall include the plural.

17.15 ERISA and Approval Under Internal Revenue Code. This Plan is intended to qualify Code Section 401(a) and the Trust which is a part of the Plan is intended to be exempt from tax under Code Section 501(a), as now in effect or hereafter amended, so that the income of the Trust Fund may be exempt from taxation under Code Section 501(a), contributions of any Employer under the Plan may be deductible for federal income tax purposes under Code Section 404 and amounts subject to Elective Deferral Agreements are not treated as distributed to Participants for federal income tax purposes under Code Section 402(a), all as now in effect or hereafter amended. Any modification or amendment of the Plan and/or Trust Agreement may be made retroactively, as necessary or appropriate, to establish and maintain such qualification and to meet any requirement of the Code or ERISA.

17.16 Rules Relating to Veterans Reemployment Rights Under USERRA. The following special provisions of this Section 17.17 shall apply to an Eligible Employee or Participant who is reemployed in accordance with the reemployment provisions of the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (“USERRA”) following a period of qualifying military service (as determined under USERRA):

(a) Each period of qualifying military service served by an Employee or Participant shall, upon such reemployment, be deemed to constitute service with the Company for all purposes of the Plan, including determining the Participant’s vested percentage in his Account, if applicable.

(b) The Participant shall be permitted to make up Elective Deferrals missed during the period of qualifying military service. The Participant shall have a period of time beginning on the date of the Participant’s reemployment with a Participating Employer following his period of qualifying military service and extending over the lesser of (i) the product of three and the Participant’s period of qualifying military service, and (ii) five years, to make up such missed Elective Deferrals.

(c) If the reemployed Participant elects to make up Elective Deferrals in accordance with subsection (b) above, the Participating Employer shall make any Matching Contributions that would have been made on behalf of such Participant had the Participant made such Elective Deferrals during the period of qualifying military service.

(d) If a Participating Employer made any Contributions to the Plan during the period of qualifying military service, it shall make a Contribution on behalf of the Participant upon the Participant’s reemployment following his period of qualifying military service, in the amount that would have been made on behalf of such Participant had the Participant been employed during the period of qualifying military service.

(e) The Company shall not (i) credit earnings to a Participant’s Account with respect to any Elective Deferrals, Matching Contributions or other Contributions before such Contributions are actually made, or (ii) make up any allocation of forfeitures, with respect to the period of qualifying military service.

57

(f) A reemployed Participant shall be entitled to accrued benefits attributable to Elective Deferrals only if such contributions are actually made.

(g) For all purposes under the Plan, including the Participating Employer’s liability for making Contributions on behalf of a reemployed Participant as described above, the Participant shall be treated as having received Covered Pay from the Company based on the rate of Covered Pay the Participant would have received during the period of qualifying military service, or if that rate is not reasonably certain, on the basis of the Participant’s average rate of Covered Pay during the 12-month period immediately preceding such period.

(h) If a Participating Employer makes an Elective Deferral, Matching Contributions or other Contribution in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section:

(i) such Contributions shall not be subject to any otherwise applicable limitation under Code Sections 402(g), 404(a) or 415, and shall not be taken into account in applying such limitations to other Participants’ or Participating Employer Contributions under the Plan or any other plan, with respect to the Plan Year in which such Contributions are made, and such Contributions shall be subject to these limitations only with respect to the Plan Year to which such Contributions relate and only in accordance with Regulations promulgated by the Department of the Treasury; and

(ii) the Plan shall not be treated as failing to meet the requirements of Code Sections 401(a)(4), 401(k)(3), 401(k)(11), 401(k)(12), 401(m), 410(b) or 416 by reason of such Contributions.

(i) If a Participant who is absent from employment as an Eligible Employee because of military service dies while performing qualified military service (as defined in Code Section 414(u)), the Participant shall be treated as having returned to employment as an Eligible Employee on the day immediately preceding his death for purposes of determining the Participant’s vested interest in his Account and his Beneficiary’s eligibility for a death benefit under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such a Participant shall not be entitled to additional Participating Employer Contributions with respect to his period of military leave.

17.17 Conditions on Contributions. All Contributions made by the Participating Employers under the Plan are conditioned upon the qualification of the Plan under Code Section 401(a) and deductibility of the Contributions under Code Section 404.

17.18 Exclusive Benefit of Employees. All Contributions made pursuant to the Plan shall be held by the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Trust for the exclusive benefit of Participants under the Plan, including former Employees and their Beneficiaries, and shall be applied to provide benefits under the Plan and to pay expenses of administration of the Plan and the Trust, to the extent that such expenses are not otherwise paid by the Company. At no time prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to such Participants and their Beneficiaries shall any part of the Trust Fund (other than such part as may be required to pay administration expenses and taxes), be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of such Employees and their Beneficiaries. However, without regard to the provisions of this Section:

58

(a) If a Contribution is conditioned upon the deductibility of the contribution under Code Section 404, then, to the extent the deduction is disallowed, the Trustee shall upon written request of the Company return the Contribution (to the extent disallowed) to the Company within one year after the day the deduction is disallowed; and

(b) If a Contribution or any portion thereof is made by a Participating Employer by a mistake of fact, the Trustee shall, upon written request of the Participating Employer, return the Contribution or such portion to the Participating Employer within one year after the date of payment to the Trustee.

Earnings attributable to amounts to be returned to the Participating Employer pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) above shall not be returned to the Participating Employer, and losses attributable to amounts to be returned to the Participating Employer pursuant to subsections (a) or (b) shall reduce the amount to be so returned.

17.19 Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In no event shall any provision under the Plan be given effect to the extent that such provision may result in a violation of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the rules promulgated thereunder.

17.20 Severability. Each of the Sections contained in the Plan shall be enforceable independently of every other Section in the Plan, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any Section shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other Section contained herein. If any Section or provision in a Section is found invalid or unenforceable, it is the intent of the parties that a court of competent jurisdiction shall reform the Section or provision to produce its nearest enforceable economic equivalent.

17.21 Successors. The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company expressly to assume this Plan. This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor of or to the Company, including without limitation any persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company whether by sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the “Company” for the purposes of this Plan), and the heirs, beneficiaries, executors and administrators of each Participant.

17.22 Withholding of Taxes. Subject to Section 6.5, to the extent required by the law in effect at the time payments are made, the Affiliated Group may withhold or cause to be withheld from any amounts deferred or payable under the Plan all federal, state, local and other taxes as shall be legally required. The Affiliated Group shall have the right in its sole discretion to (i) require a Participant to pay or provide for payment of the amount of any taxes that the Affiliated Group may be required to withhold with respect to amounts that the Company credits to a Participant’s Account(s) or (ii) deduct from any amount of salary, bonus, incentive compensation or other payment otherwise payable in cash to the Participant the amount of any taxes that the Company may be required to withhold with respect to amounts that the Company credits to a Participant’s Account(s).

59

17.23 Electronic Media. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan may permit the use of electronic media in communications and procedures between the Plan or the BAC and Participants, Beneficiaries and/or Alternate Payee. Electronic media may include, but are not limited to, e-mail, the Internet, intranet systems and automatic telephonic response systems.

17.24 Special ESOP Provisions.

(a) Right of First Refusal. If the Company Stock ceases to be publicly traded within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 54.4975-7(b)(1)(iv), all shares held under the ESOP Feature distributed by the Trustee may, as determined by the Company, be subject to a “right of first refusal.” Such a “right” shall provide that prior to any subsequent transfer, the shares must first be offered in writing to the Trust, and then, if refused by the Trust, to the Company. In the event that the proposed transfer constitutes a gift or other such transfer at less than fair market value, the price per share shall be the fair market value determined as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date offered to the Trust, or in the event of a proposed purchase by a prospective bona fide purchaser other than a Related Employer, the offer to the Trustee and the Company shall be at the greater of fair market value determined as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date offered to the Trust or at the price offered to be paid by the prospective bona fide purchaser; provided, however, that in the case of a purchase by the Trust from a disqualified person (as defined in Code Section 4975) the price per share shall be determined as of the date of the purchase; and, provided, further, that the Trust shall not purchase any shares when the purchase price of such shares is in excess of fair market value. The Trust or the Company, as the case may be, may accept the offer at any time during a period not exceeding fourteen days after receipt of such offer. The right of first refusal shall lapse fourteen days after the security holder gives written notice to the Trust of its right of first refusal with respect to the shares.

(b) Put Option. At any time at which Company Stock held under the ESOP Feature has ceased to be readily tradeable on an established securities market, a Participant or Beneficiary shall be granted at any such time that such shares are distributed to him, an option to “put” such shares to the Company; provided, however, that the Trust shall have the option to assume the rights and obligations of the Company at the time the “put” option is exercised. Such “put” option shall provide that, for a period of sixty (60) days (excluding any period during which the Company is prohibited from honoring the “put” option by applicable federal or state law) after such shares are distributed by the Trustee to a Participant or Beneficiary, the Participant or Beneficiary shall have the right to have the Company purchase such shares at their fair market value, and if the “put” option is not exercised within such 60-day period, it may be exercised within an additional period of sixty (60)days during the Plan Year next commencing after the date such shares were distributed by the Trustee. For purposes of this Section, fair market value shall be based on the fair market value determined as of the Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of exercise. Such “put” option shall be exercised by notifying the Company in writing. The terms of payment for the purchase of such

60

shares shall be reasonable. In the case of deferral of payment, adequate security and a reasonable rate of interest shall be provided for any credit extended, and cumulative payments as of any given date shall be no less than the aggregate of reasonable periodic payments as of such date. Periodic payments shall be considered reasonable if annual installments, commencing within 30 days after the “put” is exercised, are substantially equal and if the payment period extends for not more than five years after the date the “put” is exercised.

(c) Other Options. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, no person may be required to sell shares held under the ESOP Feature to the Company, nor may the Trust enter into an agreement which obligates the Trust to purchase such shares at an indefinite time determined upon the happening of an event such as the death of a shareholder.

(d) Dividend Distributions. Any cash dividends payable on shares held in the Company Stock Fund attributable to the Accounts of Participants, Beneficiaries and Alternate Payees shall be reinvested in Company Stock, unless the Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee elects to have the dividends paid to the Trust and distributed in cash to such Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payees no later than ninety (90) days after the close of the Plan Year in which the dividends are paid to the Plan; provided that if dividends are reinvested in the Company Stock Fund, then Company Stock allocated to the Participant’s Account shall have a fair market value not less than the amount of the dividends that would have been allocated to the Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee. Such distribution (if any) of cash dividends shall be limited to dividends on shares of Company Stock which are then vested.

(e) Special ESOP Valuation. At any time at which Company Stock held under the ESOP Feature has ceased to be readily tradable on an established securities market, valuation of such Company Stock with respect to activities carried on by the Plan shall be by an independent appraiser in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(28)(C).

(f) Exempt Loans and 1042 Transactions. The ESOP Feature of the Plan shall not engage or participate in the following transactions:

(i) Exempt loans within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 54.4975-7(b)(1)(iii).

(ii) Sales of Company Stock to the Plan in accordance with Code Section 1042.

17.25 Back Pay Awards. The provisions of this Section shall apply only to an Employee or former Employee who becomes entitled to back pay by an award or agreement of a Participating Employer without regard to mitigation of damages. If a person to whom this Section applies was or would have become an Eligible Employee after such back pay award or agreement has been effected, and if any such person who had not previously elected to make Elective Deferrals pursuant to Section 3.1 shall within thirty (30) days of the date he receives notice of the provisions of this Section make an election to make Elective Deferrals in accordance with such Section 3.1 (retroactive to any date as of which he was or has become eligible to do so), then such Participant may elect that any Elective Deferrals not previously made on his behalf but which, after application of the foregoing provisions of this Section, would

61

have been made under the provisions of Article III shall be made out of the proceeds of such back pay award or agreement. In addition, if any such Employee or former Employee would have been eligible to receive Matching Contributions or other Contributions under the provisions of Article IV for any prior Plan Year after such back pay award or agreement has been effected, his Participating Employer shall make a Matching Contribution or other Contribution equal to the amount of the Contribution which would have been made to such Participant under the provisions of Article IV as in effect during each such Plan Year. The amounts of such additional Contributions shall be credited to the Account of such Participant. Any additional Contributions made pursuant to this Section shall be made in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of the applicable provisions of the Plan.

17.26 Mental or Physical Incompetency. If the BAC determines that any person entitled to payments under the Plan is incompetent by reason of physical or mental disability, as established by a court of competent jurisdiction, the BAC may cause all payments thereafter becoming due to such person to be made to any other person for his benefit, without responsibility to follow the application of amounts so paid. Payments made pursuant to this Section shall completely discharge the BAC, the Employer and the Plan with respect thereto.

17.27 Recoupment of Overpayments. • In the event the Plan pays all or a portion of a Participant’s Account in error, the BAC shall have an equitable lien on the erroneous overpayment and shall have the right to recoup the overpayment from the individual(s) to whom, or for whose benefit, the payment was made. To the maximum extent permissible under applicable Internal Revenue Service and/or Department of Labor guidance, the BAC may recoup the amount of the overpayment by collecting payment directly from one or more of the affected individuals (plus any earnings or interest) and/or by withholding amounts from any future Plan payments to which the affected individuals are entitled. To the extent an overpayment is caused by a record keeper or Trustee’s error, and the Plan is not able to recover all or any portion of such overpayment from the affected individuals or from future Plan payments payable to the affected individuals, the BAC shall cause such record keeper or Trustee, as applicable, to reimburse the Plan for any portion of such overpayment that is not recovered, plus any earning or interest, consistent with applicable Internal Revenue Service and/or Department of Labor guidance.

* * *

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused the Plan to be executed in its name by a duly authorized officer this day of 2017, effective as of January 1, 2018.

(b) In the case where the excess Elective Deferrals described in paragraph (a) arose after taking into account only Elective Deferrals made to this Plan, a Puerto Rican Participant shall be deemed to have notified the BAC. Contributions made to other plans of a Related Employer shall be added for purposes of determining if the rules described in this paragraph have been met.

(c) The income allocable to such excess Elective Deferrals shall include income for the Plan Year for which the excess Elective Deferrals was made. The income allocable to excess Elective Deferrals shall be determined under any reasonable method selected by the BAC.

(d) Any amount distributed under this Section 1 shall be included in the Puerto Rican Participant’s deferral percentage unless such a Puerto Rican Participant is a non-Highly Compensated Employee and such excess arose solely because of excess Elective Deferrals under Section 1 of this Appendix made to the Plan. Effective January 1, 2012, contributions made to other plans of a Related Employer shall be added for purposes of determining compliance with the limitations described in this paragraph.

2. Rollovers. Upon the Severance From Employment of a Puerto Rican Participant, the Puerto Rican Participant may elect, in a time and manner prescribed by the BAC, to have any portion of a total distribution or partial distribution contributed to (1) an individual retirement account or annuity under the provisions of PRIRC Section 1081.02, (2) a nondeductible individual retirement account, (2) a nondeductible individual retirement account under the provisions of PRIRC Section 1081.03 or (3) a qualified retirement plan under the provisions of PRIRC Section 1081.01 within 60 days after receiving such distribution.

A Participant is in the “Top Paid Group” for such Plan Year if he is in the group consisting of the top twenty percent (20%) of all employees of the Employer (for purposes of Code Section 414(q)(3)) when ranked on the basis of his Section 415 Compensation paid during such Plan Year, provided that the Section 415 Compensation of a Participant for purposes of determining the Top Paid Group shall be determined without regard to the Code Section 401(a)(17) limit on compensation.

For purposes of this Section, the term “Determination Year” means the Plan Year for which the determination as to who is a Highly Compensated Employee is being made; and the term “Look-Back Year” means the 12 month period immediately preceding the Determination Year, or if the BAC elects, the Determination Year.
