&#147;2011 Deferred Compensation Plan&#148;). The 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan, which becomes effective on January&nbsp;1, 2011, is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for a select group of management and other highly compensated employees
of the Company and its subsidiaries. Approximately 160 of the Company&#146;s employees, including all of the Company&#146;s named executive officers, will be eligible to participate in the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan for the 2011 calendar year.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan allows for deferrals by participants of up to 75% of base salary and sales commissions and up to 100% of
bonuses and other cash or equity-based compensation approved by the Company&#146;s Compensation Committee. The 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan also provides that the Company may establish rules permitting a participant to defer performance-based
compensation up to six months prior to the end of a performance period. For the 2011 calendar year, participants in the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan may elect to defer base salary, sales commissions, bonuses and other cash compensation. There is
no maximum dollar limit on the amount that may be deferred by a participant each year. Participants in the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan will elect to have the participant&#146;s account credited with earnings and investment gains and losses by
assuming that deferred amounts were invested in one or more hypothetical investment options selected by the participant. An Apogee common stock fund will not be one of the investment options available under the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan.
Participants are permitted to change their investment elections at any time. The Company may also make discretionary contributions to a participant&#146;s account under the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan, and the Company will designate a vesting
schedule for each such contribution. The participants are always 100% vested in the amount they defer and the earnings, gains and losses credited to their accounts. </FONT></P>

(as defined in the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan), or unforeseeable emergency that results in &#147;severe financial hardship&#148; that is consistent with the meaning of such term under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
Distributions are in a lump sum, installments or a combination of lump sum with installments based upon the participant&#146;s election as allowed under the 2011 Deferred Compensation Plan. </FONT></P>

providing Participants with an opportunity to defer receipt of a portion of their salary, bonus, and other specified compensation. The Plan is not intended to meet the qualification requirements of Code Section&nbsp;401(a), but is intended to meet
the requirements of Code Section&nbsp;409A, and shall be operated and interpreted consistent with that intent. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Plan constitutes an

solely responsible for payment of the benefits of its employees and their beneficiaries. The Plan is unfunded for federal tax purposes and is intended to be an unfunded arrangement for eligible employees who are part of a select group of management
or highly compensated employees of the Employer within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. Any amounts set aside to defray the liabilities assumed by the Company or an Adopting Employer will remain the general assets
of the Company or the Adopting Employer and shall remain subject to the claims of the Company&#146;s or the Adopting Employer's creditors until such amounts are distributed to the Participants. </FONT></P>
