Article 1. General Provisions

Section 1.1.    Purpose.

(a) This Plan is maintained to provide Participants an opportunity to defer compensation and to provide supplemental retirement benefits to Participants.

(b) This Plan is an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of Title I of ERISA. Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA provide that such benefits are not subject to the participation and vesting, funding, or fiduciary requirements (Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Title I) of ERISA.

(c) Benefits under the Plan shall be payable from the Company’s general assets or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, from the assets of the Employer or a Trust. All benefits under the Plan are subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors if the Company becomes bankrupt or insolvent.

Section 1.2.    History of the Plan.

(a) Before 2005, the Company provided deferred compensation benefits under a plan known as the “McCormick & Company, Incorporated Deferred Compensation Plan,” which was effective January 1, 2000 (the “2000 Plan”). The 2000 Plan was frozen effective January 1, 2005, and no further deferrals were permitted under the 2000 Plan after 2004. All benefits under the 2000 Plan were vested as of December 31, 2004.

(b) This Plan, originally known as the McCormick & Company, Incorporated 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan, was first effective January 1, 2005, and it incorporated the terms of the 2000 Plan, except to the extent those terms were inconsistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The provisions of the Plan, as in effect before February 1, 2017, are referred to in this document as the “Pre-2017 Plan.”

(c) Effective February 1, 2017, this Plan is being amended and restated in its entirety, and is being renamed as the McCormick & Company Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan. In addition to allowing Participants to defer compensation, the newly amended and restated Plan will provide employer contributions for Participants who receive Total Compensation that exceeds the limit set forth in Section 401(a)(17) of the Code ($270,000 in 2017) from an Employer during a Plan Year.

(d) Effective January 31, 2017, the McCormick & Company, Incorporated Restoration Plan (“Restoration Plan”) and The McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“DB SERP”) (collectively, the “Frozen Non-Qualified Plans”) were frozen.

(e) As a result of the amendment and restatement of this Plan and the freeze of the Frozen Non-Qualified Plans, (1) effective February 1, 2017, contributions to the Plan (including deferrals of compensation payable after January 31, 2017) shall be subject to the terms of the Plan rather than the terms of the Pre-2017 Plan, except to the extent such treatment would result in additional income tax under Section 409A of the Code, (2) no additional contributions shall be made to the Restoration Plan on or after February 1, 2017, (3) no benefits shall accrue under the DB SERP on or after February 1, 2017, (4) the amount of

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 1

the Pension Plan benefit used as the offset in the calculation of the DB SERP benefit shall be frozen effective January 31, 2017, (5) no individual shall become a participant in the Frozen Non-Qualified Plans on or after February 1, 2017, and (6) no individual whose employment is terminated and who is subsequently reemployed on or after February 1, 2017 may again participate in the Frozen Non-Qualified Plans. As soon as practicable after January 31, 2017, the Frozen Non-Qualified Plans will be merged into this Plan.

Section 1.3.    Benefit Structures and Merged Plans.

As a result of the merger of the Frozen Non-Qualified Plans into the Plan, the Plan consists of the following benefit structures:

(a) Benefits under the Pre-2017 Plan. Except as provided in this subsection (a), the payment of amounts deferred and contributions made under the Pre-2017 Plan shall be governed by the Pre-2017 Plan, which is set forth in Addendum A. Addendum A generally reflects the terms of the Pre-2017 Plan in effect immediately before the merger and is a continuation of the terms of the Pre-2017 Plan. Amounts deferred after January 31, 2017, will be treated as contributed under the Plan (rather than the Pre-2017 Plan), even if the applicable deferral election was made before February 1, 2017, except to the extent such treatment would result in a Participant owing additional income tax under Section 409A of the Code.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Article 7 (“Administration of the Plan”), Article 8 (“Amendment and Termination”), Article 9 (“Claims Procedures”), and Article 11 (“Miscellaneous”) of the Pre-2017 Plan as in effect immediately before February 1, 2107, which do not affect the payment or calculation of benefits, are no longer in effect, and instead, Article 7 (“Administration of the Plan”), Article 8 (“Amendment and Termination”), Article 9 (“Claims Procedures”), and Article 11 (“Miscellaneous”) of the Plan, as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Governance Provisions”), shall apply to Pre-2017 Plan benefits.

Addendum A applies only to persons who are eligible as defined in Addendum A and who have a benefit under the Pre-2017 Plan on or after February 1, 2017.

(b) Benefits under the Restoration Plan. Except as provided in this subsection (b), the payment of Restoration Plan benefits shall be governed by the Restoration Plan, which is set forth in Addendum B. Addendum B generally reflects the terms of the Restoration Plan in effect immediately before the merger and is a continuation of the terms of the Restoration Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, article 8 (“Administration of the Plan”), article 9 (“Amendment and Termination”), article 10 (“Claims Procedures”), and article 12 (“Miscellaneous”) of the Restoration Plan, which do not affect the payment or calculation of benefits, are no longer in effect, and instead the Governance Provisions of the Plan shall apply to Restoration Plan benefits.

Addendum B applies only to persons who are eligible as defined in Addendum B and who are participants in the Restoration Plan on or after February 1, 2017.

(c) Benefits under the DB SERP. Except as provided in this subsection (c), the payment of DB SERP benefits shall be governed by the DB SERP, which is set forth in Addendum C. Addendum C generally reflects the terms of the DB SERP in effect immediately before

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 2

the merger and is a continuation of the terms of the DB SERP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, article 5 (“Administration of the Plan”), article 6 (“Claims Procedures”), article 7 (“Amendment and Termination), and article 9 (“Miscellaneous”) of the DB SERP, which do not affect the payment or calculation of benefits, are no longer in effect, and instead the Governance Provisions of the Plan shall apply to DB SERP benefits.

Addendum C applies only to persons who are eligible as defined in Addendum C and who are participants in the DB SERP on or after February 1, 2017.

Section 1.4.    Effective Date.

The Plan, as amended and restated in this document, is effective February 1, 2017.

A Participant who has been notified by the Employer of his termination of employment does not have a Qualifying Termination until the effective date of such termination as established by the Employer. Any Participant who terminates employment with the Employer voluntarily without Good Reason (or is terminated involuntarily for Cause, or due to death or Disability, or, before a Change in Control, for performance reasons) before the effective date of the Participant’s termination established by the Employer has not had a Qualifying Termination. The termination of employment at the end of a leave of absence or period of short- or long-term disability as a result of a Participant’s inability or failure to return to his prior position in accordance with applicable law is not an involuntary termination of employment, except to the extent required by law.

(oo) Retirement. Theearlier of (1) the date on which the Participant has attained at least age 55, or (2) the date on which the Participant becomes “Totally and Permanently Disabled” within the meaning of the Company’s long-term disability plan.

(2) Total CompensationaboveSection 401(a)(17) Limit. A Participant (other than a Director) may designate a whole percentage to be deducted from his Total Compensation that exceeds the Section 401(a)(17) Limit, if any.

(3) Directors’ Fees. A Participant who is a Director may designate a whole percentage (or, if permitted by the Committee, a fixed dollar amount) to be deducted from his directors’ fees. Such amount shall be deducted from each regularly scheduled payment of directors’ fees.

(b) Minimum Deferral.

For any Plan Year, no deferral election (whether above or below the Section 401(a)(17) Limit) shall be valid unless it is at least equal to 5% for the Plan Year beginning January 1, 2018, and 6% for all Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2019.

If an Election Form is submitted which would yield less than the stated minimum amounts, the amount deferred shall be zero.

(c) Maximum Deferral.

For any Plan Year, no deferral election shall be valid to the extent that it exceeds the following maximum percentages:

Type of Compensation	Maximum Deferral Percentage
Total Compensation	80%
Directors’ Fees	100%

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 14

Deferral Contributions shall be deemed to be made to the Plan by the Participant as soon as practicable after the date the Participant would have received such compensation had it not been deferred pursuant to the Plan.

Section 4.2.    Deferral Contribution Elections.

(a) Subject to the requirements of this Article 4, a Participant may elect to defer the receipt of Total Compensation during any Plan Year.

(b) The Participant’s intent to defer shall be evidenced by an annual Election Form, completed and submitted (either electronically or in writing) to the Committee or its designee in accordance with such procedures and time frames as may be established by the Committee.

(c) Amounts deferred by a Participant with respect to a given Plan Year shall be referred to collectively as Deferral Contributions and shall be credited to a Deferral Contribution Account established in the name of the Participant. The Deferral Contribution Account shall be used solely as a device for the measurement of amounts to be paid to the Participant under the Plan. The Deferral Contribution Account shall not be, constitute or be treated as an escrow, trust fund, or any other type of funded account for Code or ERISA purposes, and amounts credited to any such account shall not be considered “plan assets” for ERISA purposes. The Deferral Contribution Account merely provides a record of the bookkeeping entries relating to the benefits that the Employer intends to provide to the Participant and shall thus reflect a mere unsecured promise to pay such amounts in the future.

(d) Except with respect to a newly eligible Participant, as provided in subsection (e), below, the Election Form must be submitted by May 30 of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year during which the Total Compensation will be paid in order to comply with the requirement in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(a)(8) that elections with respect to deferrals of Bonus that constitute “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code be submitted at least six months before the end of the applicable performance cycle.

(e) A newly eligible Participant shall be permitted to defer Base Annual Compensation and Bonus as follows:

(1) Compensation Paid in Plan Year in which Participant Becomes Eligible. A newly eligible Participant cannot elect to defer Total Compensation paid in the Plan Year in which he becomes eligible.

(2) Compensation Paid in Plan Year Following Plan Year in which Participant Becomes Eligible.

(B) On or Before May 30. If a newly eligible Participant becomes eligible on or before May 30, he will submit an Election Form, in accordance with

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 15

subsection (d), above, solely with respect to Base Annual Compensation paid during the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which he becomes eligible. A newly eligible Participant cannot elect to defer Bonus that is paid in the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which he first becomes eligible.

(f) An Election Form shall remain in effect, notwithstanding any change in the Participant’s Base Annual Compensation and Bonuses, until changed or terminated in accordance with this Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 (“Suspension of Deferrals”). For the avoidance of doubt, to increase, decrease, or terminate his Deferral Contribution election, Election Forms must be filed by May 30 of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year during which the Total Compensation will be paid. If a Participant becomes an Ineligible Employee after May 30, as described in Section 3.4 (“Change of Employment Category”), his Deferral Contribution election will remain in place with respect to Total Compensation paid in the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which he becomes an Ineligible Employee.

(g) If a Participant fails to submit an Election Form or fails to submit such form on a timely basis (and one is not already in effect in accordance with subsection (f), above) with respect to Total Compensation for a Plan Year, the Participant shall not make Deferral Contributions with respect to Total Compensation paid during that Plan Year.

(h) Except to the extent specifically permitted under Section 409A of the Code, a Participant’s Election Form with respect to Total Compensation is irrevocable once that election period ends and may not be changed until the following election period.

(b) Disability. If a Participant is deemed to have suffered a Disability, any current Election Form of the Participant shall automatically be suspended and no further deferrals shall be required to be made by the Participant pursuant to his current Election Form as of the date on which the Participant incurs the Disability.

(c) Discretionary Contributions. If a Participant’s Deferral Contributions are suspended pursuant to Section 4.3(a) or (b), the Committee may also suspend the Participant’s eligibility for Discretionary Contributions, Non-Elective Contributions, and Transition Credits.

Section 4.4.    Matching Contributions.

(a) 2018 Plan Year. For the Plan Year beginning January 1, 2018, the Employer shall make a Matching Contribution to the Plan with respect to each payroll period on behalf of each Participant who satisfies the eligibility requirements in Section 3.1(b), in an amount equal to (A) 100% of the Participant’s Deferral Contributions with respect to Total

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 16

Compensation that exceeds the Section 401(a)(17) Limit, to the extent that such Deferral Contributions do not exceed 3% of the Participant’s Total Compensation; and (B) 50% of the Participant’s Deferral Contributions with respect to Total Compensation that exceeds the Section 401(a)(17) Limit, to the extent that such Deferral Contributions do not exceed 2% of the Participant’s Total Compensation.

(c) True-up. At the end of each Plan Year the Committee shall re-determine any Matching Contribution for each Participant based on the Participant’s Total Compensation paid during the Plan Year in accordance with the Matching Contribution formula in subsection (a) or (b) above, as applicable. Any Participant for whom any Matching Contribution has not been sufficiently made in accordance with the Matching Contribution formula shall receive an additional Matching Contribution so that the total Deferral Contributions for the Plan Year reflected as a percentage of Total Compensation paid during the Plan Year are matched in accordance with the applicable Matching Contribution formula (“true-up” of Matching Contributions).

(d) Last Day Requirement. A Participant must be employed by an Employer on December 31 of the applicable Plan Year to receive a true-up in accordance with subsection (c) above, unless Separation of Service is due to Retirement or death.

The Matching Contribution Account shall not be, constitute or be treated as an escrow, trust fund, or any other type of funded account for Code or ERISA purposes, and amounts credited to such an account shall not be considered “plan assets” for ERISA purposes. The Matching Contribution Account merely provides a record of the bookkeeping entries relating to the benefits that the Employer intends to provide to the Participant and shall thus reflect a mere unsecured promise to pay such amounts in the future.

(e) Hypothetical Account. The Non-Elective Contribution Account shall be used solely as a device for the measurement of amounts to be paid to the Participant under the Plan. The Non-Elective Contribution Account shall not be, constitute or be treated as an escrow, trust fund, or any other type of funded account for Code or ERISA purposes, and amounts credited to such an account shall not be considered “plan assets” for ERISA purposes. The Non-Elective Contribution Account merely provides a record of the bookkeeping entries relating to the benefits that the Employer intends to provide to the Participant and shall thus reflect a mere unsecured promise to pay such amounts in the future.

If a Participant’s Account Balance is vested in accordance with Section 4.11(f)(2) (“Change in Control Termination”) or Section 4.11(f)(3) (“Plan Termination Following a Change in Control”), his Account Balance shall be paid in a single lump sum within ten (10) days after the Change in Control Event.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit a Participant to elect to be paid on the “earlier of” or the “later of” any of the permissible payment dates set forth in this Section 5.5.

Section 5.6.    Withdrawal in the Event of a Financial Emergency.

A Participant who believes he has experienced a Financial Emergency may request in writing a withdrawal of a portion of his Vested Account Balance (except Stock) necessary to satisfy the emergency. The Committee shall determine (a) whether a Financial Emergency has occurred, (b) the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the Financial Emergency (which may include amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, local, or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution), and (c) the accounts from which the withdrawal shall be made. If the Committee approves the petition for a withdrawal, the distribution shall be made within thirty (30) days of the date of approval by the Committee.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 26

Section 6.2.    Beneficiary.

Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive, in the event of the Participant’s death, those benefits payable under the Plan.

A Participant shall have the right to change his Beneficiary by completing and submitting to the Committee (or its designated agent) a revised Beneficiary Designation Form in accordance with the Committee’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time.Upon receipt by the Committee (or its designated agent) of a revised Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be deemed canceled. The Committee shall rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form received by the Committee (or its designated agent) prior to the Participant’s death.

Section 6.4.    Receipt.

No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until received and accepted by the Committee or its designated agent.

Section 6.5.    No Beneficiary Designation.

If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided above or, if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Participant or die prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, then the Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his surviving spouse. If the Participant has no surviving spouse, the benefits remaining under the Plan shall be payable to the estate of the Participant.

Section 6.6.    Doubt as to Beneficiary.

If the Committee has any doubt as to the proper Beneficiary to receive payments pursuant to this Plan, the Committee shall have the right to cause the Participant’s Employer (or, if applicable, the trustee of the Trust) to withhold such payments until this matter is resolved to the Committee’s satisfaction.

Section 6.7.    Discharge of Obligations.

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

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 27

Article 7. Administration of the Plan

Section 7.1.    Designation of Committee.

This Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or the Management Committee of the Company, as the case may be.

Any individual serving on the Committee who is a Participant shall not vote or act on any matter relating solely to himself. When making a determination or calculation, the Committee shall be entitled to rely on information furnished by a Participant or an Employer.

Section 7.3.    Agents.

In the administration of this Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, employ or designate agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees fit (including acting through a duly appointed representative) and may from time to time consult with counsel who may be counsel to any Employer.

Section 7.4.    Binding Effect of Decisions.

The decision or action of the Committee with respect to any question arising out of or in connection with the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee hereunder shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan.

Article 8. Amendment and Termination

Section 8.1.    Amendment, Suspension, and Termination.

(a) Subject to subsections (b), (c), and (d), below, the Company, or a committee designated by the Company, may, at any time, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole or in part with respect to any or all Employers. Subject to subsections (b), (c), and (d), below, the Committee shall have the authority, except to the extent corporate governance documents (including the Compensation Committee Charter) or applicable law require the Board to adopt amendments to the Plan, to adopt any amendments to the Plan that the Committee determines does not materially increase the Company’s costs or expenses relating to the Plan; provided that any action of the Committee to amend the Plan shall be in writing.

(b) No amendment, suspension, or termination shall decrease or restrict the value of a Participant’s Vested Account Balance in existence at the time the amendment or modification is made, calculated as if the Participant had experienced a Separation from Service as of the effective date of the amendment, suspension, or termination, unless such affected Participant or Beneficiary consents in writing to such amendment.

(c) Any resolution to amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan that is adopted or becomes effective during the period beginning six (6) months before a Change in Control Event and ending two (2) years after a Change in Control Event, shall not adversely affect in a material way an individual who was a Participant or Beneficiary as of immediately before the Change in Control Event, unless such affected Participant or Beneficiary consents in writing to such amendment.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, either the Company or the Committee may amend the Plan at any time to the extent necessary to avoid adverse consequences under any applicable law. Any such amendment shall, to the maximum extent possible, preserve the Plan’s benefits for all Participants and Beneficiaries.

(e) Although the Employers anticipate that they will continue the Plan for an indefinite period of time, there is no guarantee that any Employer will continue the Plan or will not terminate the Plan at any time in the future. Accordingly, each Employer, subject to subsections (b), (c), and (d), above, reserves the right to discontinue its sponsorship of the Plan and to terminate the Plan, at any time, with respect to its participating employees by action of its board of directors.

(f) Upon the termination of the Plan with respect to any Employer (and any other plan required to be aggregated with this Plan pursuant to Section 409A of the Code), the Company may, in its discretion, elect to distribute to each Participant the full amount of his benefit under the Plan in a lump sum no earlier than the 13th month and no later than the 24th month after the termination of the Plan, provided that the termination of the Plan is not proximate to a downturn in the Company’s financial health and the Company does not adopt any new arrangement that would have been aggregated with the Plan under Section 409A of the Code within three years following the date of the Plan’s termination.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 30

Section 8.2.    Effect of Payment.

The full payment of the applicable benefit under the provisions of the Plan shall completely discharge all obligations to a Participant and his Beneficiaries under this Plan and each of the Participant’s Election Forms shall terminate.

Section 8.3.    Section 409A of the Code.

If the Company determines that any provision of the Plan is or might be inconsistent with the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent that the Company determines is necessary to bring it into compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Any such deemed amendment shall be effective as of the earliest date such amendment is necessary under Section 409A of the Code. No amendment or termination pursuant to Section 8.1 (“Amendment, Suspension, and Termination”) shall be effective to the extent that it would result in an imposition of any additional income tax under Section 409A of the Code.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 31

Article 9. Claims Procedures

Section 9.1.    Presentation of Claim.

Any Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant (such Participant or Beneficiary being referred to below as a “Claimant”) may deliver to the Committee a written claim for a determination with respect to the amounts distributable to such Claimant from the Plan. If such a claim relates to the contents of a notice received by the Claimant, the claim must be made within thirty (30) days after such notice was received by the Claimant. All other claims must be made within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date on which the event that caused the claim to arise occurred. Each claim must state with particularity the determination desired by the Claimant.

Section 9.2.    Notification of Decision.

The Committee shall consider a Claimant’s claim and shall notify the Claimant in writing or by electronic means:

(a) that the Claimant’s requested determination has been made, and that the claim has been allowed in full; or

(b) that the Committee has reached a conclusion contrary, in whole or in part, to the Claimant’s requested determination, and in that event, such notice shall set forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant:

(1) the specific reason(s) for the denial of the claim, or any part of it;

(2) specific reference(s) to pertinent provisions of the Plan upon which such denial was 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; and

(4) an explanation of the review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review.

Any such notice shall be provided within ninety (90) days after receipt of the claim by the Plan, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim for up to a maximum of an additional ninety (90) days. The Claimant will receive written notification if any such extension is necessary.

Section 9.3.    Review of a Denied Claim.

Within sixty (60) days after receiving a notice from the Committee that a claim has been denied, in whole or in part, a Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly authorized representative) may file with the Committee a written request for a review of the denial of the claim. Thereafter, the Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly authorized representative):

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 32

(a) may review and request copies of pertinent documents, records, and other information relevant to the claim for benefits;

(b) may submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for benefits (regardless of whether such comments, documents, records, or other information was submitted or considered in connection with the initial claim); and/or

(c) may, but not later than thirty (30) days after the review procedure began, request a hearing, which the Committee may grant.

No claim shall be reviewed if the Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly authorized representative) fails to file the written request for review in a timely manner.

A Claimant who fails to request a review (and fails to have a duly authorized representative seek review on his behalf) in accordance with this Section 9.3 shall not be permitted to bring an action under ERISA to enforce his rights under the Plan.

Section 9.4.    Decision on Review.

The Committee shall render its decision on review promptly, and not later than sixty (60) days after the filing of a written request for review of the denial, unless a hearing is held or other special circumstances require additional time, in which case the Committee’s decision must be rendered within one hundred twenty (120) days after such date. The Claimant will receive written notification if any extension beyond the original sixty (60) days is necessary. Such decision must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and it must contain:

(a) specific reasons for the decision;

(b) specific reference(s) to the pertinent Plan provisions upon which the decision was 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 claim for benefits; and

(d) a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA.

Section 9.5.    Section 409A of the Code.

If a Participant or Beneficiary believes he is entitled to benefits but has not received them, the Participant or Beneficiary must accept any payment made under the Plan and make prompt and reasonable, good faith efforts to collect the remaining portion of the payment, as determined under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(g). For this purpose (and as determined under such regulation), efforts to collect the payment will be presumed not to be prompt, reasonable, good faith efforts, unless the Participant or Beneficiary provides notice to the Committee within ninety (90) days of the latest date upon which the payment could have been timely made in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the regulations under Section 409A of the Code, and unless, if not paid, the Participant or Beneficiary takes further enforcement measures within one hundred eighty (180) days after such latest date.

Section 9.6.    Time Limit on Commencing Litigation.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 33

(a) If a Claimant wishes to file a lawsuit against the Plan (1) to recover benefits believed due under the terms of the Plan or any law, (2) to clarify the Claimant’s right to future benefits under the Plan, (3) to enforce the Claimant’s rights under the Plan, or (4) to seek a remedy, ruling or judgment of any kind against the Plan that relates to the Plan, the claimant must file the suit within the Applicable Limitations Period or the suit will be time-barred.

(b) The “Applicable Limitations Period” is the period ending two years after:

(1) In the case of a claim to recover benefits allegedly due under the Plan or to clarify rights to future benefits from the Plan, the earliest of (A) the date the first benefit payment was actually made; (B) the date the first benefit payment was allegedly due; or (C) the date the Company, the Plan, or the Committee first repudiated the alleged obligation to provide such benefits.

A repudiation may be made in the form of a direct communication to the Claimant (e.g., denial of a claim under administrative review procedures established by the Committee) or a more general oral or written communication related to benefits payable under the Plan (for example, a summary plan description, a summary of material modifications, a benefit statement, or an agreement or offer letter);

(2) In the case of a claim or action to enforce an alleged right under the Plan (other than a claim for plan benefits), the date the Plan first denied the Claimant’s request to exercise such right; or

(3) In the case of any other claim or action, the earliest date on which the Claimant knew or should have known of the material facts on which such claim or action is based, regardless of whether the Claimant was aware of the legal theory underlying the claim or action.

(c) If a request for administrative review under the procedures established by the Committee is pending when the Applicable Limitations Period expires, the Applicable Limitations Period will be extended to the date that is sixty (60) calendar days after the final denial (including a deemed denial) of such claim on administrative review.

(d) The Applicable Limitations Period replaces and supersedes any limitations period that ends at a later time and that otherwise might be deemed applicable under state or federal law in the absence of this Section 9.6. The Applicable Limitations Period does not extend any limitations period under state or federal law.

(e) The Committee may extend the Applicable Limitations Period upon a showing of exceptional circumstances, but such an extension is at the discretion of the Committee and is not subject to review.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 34

Article 10. Trust

Section 10.1.    Establishment of the Trust.

The Company may utilize one or more Trusts to which the Employers may transfer such assets as the Employers determine in their sole discretion to assist in meeting their obligations under the Plan. Any Trust shall conform to the restrictions under Section 409A of the Code relating to the funding of nonqualified deferred compensation plans. Benefits under the Plan may also be paid out of the general assets of the Company or an Employer. Any Trust shall maintain separate subaccounts for each of the Frozen Non-Qualified Plans and this Plan.

Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant or any other person.

Section 10.2.    Automatic Funding of Trust.

Upon a Change in Control Event, (a) if it has not done so already, the Company shall establish a Trust, and (b) the Employers shall contribute amounts to such Trust (or any pre-existing Trust or Trusts) sufficient to fund all benefits due under the Plan.

Section 10.3.    Interrelationship of the Plan and the Trust.

The provisions of the Plan shall govern the rights of a Participant to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the Employers, Participants and the creditors of the Employers to the assets transferred to the Trust.

Section 10.4.    Distributions From the Trust.

Each Employer’s obligations under the Plan may be satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and any such distribution shall reduce the Employer’s obligations under this Plan.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 35

Article 11. Miscellaneous

Section 11.1.    Status of Plan.

The Plan is intended to be a plan that is not qualified within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code and that “is unfunded and is maintained by an employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of ERISA. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with that intent. All Participant accounts and all credits and other adjustments to such Participant accounts shall be bookkeeping entries only and shall be used solely as a device for the measurement and determination of amounts to be paid under the Plan. No Participant accounts, credits or other adjustments under the Plan shall be interpreted as an indication that any benefits under the Plan are in any way funded.

Section 11.2.    Unsecured General Creditor.

Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of the Company or an Employer or in any property or assets held in a Trust maintained with respect to the Plan. For purposes of the payment of benefits under this Plan, any and all of an Employer’s assets, shall be, and shall remain, the general, unpledged unrestricted assets of the Employer. Any Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan, such rights shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

Section 11.3.    Employer’s Liability.

An Employer’s liability for the payment of benefits shall be defined only by the Plan and the Election Form. An Employer shall have no obligation to a Participant under the Plan except as expressly provided in the Plan and his Election Form.

Section 11.4.    Nonassignability.

Except to the extent required by an approved domestic relations order, neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in actual receipt, the amount, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. Except as required by law or an approved domestic relations order, no part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency.

Section 11.5.    Not a Contract of Employment.

The terms and conditions of this Plan and the Election Form shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between any Employer and the Participant. Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an “at will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 36

any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, except as otherwise provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this Plan or any Election Form shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of any Employer as an employee or to interfere with the right of any Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

Section 11.6.    Furnishing Information.

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

Section 11.7.    Governing Law.

The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to ERISA and the internal laws of the State of Maryland without regard to its conflicts of laws principles, to the extent not preempted by ERISA.

Section 11.8.    Forum Selection.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, any lawsuit brought in whole or in part under Section 502 of ERISA (or any successor provision) and relating to the Plan, the lawfulness of any Plan provision or the administration of the Plan must be filed in one of the following courts:

(1) the United States District Court for the District of Maryland or for the district in which the Company is headquartered;

(2) in the case of an action brought by an individual plaintiff, the United States District Court for the district in which such plaintiff resides; or

(3) in the case of an action brought by more than one plaintiff, the United States District Court for the district in which the largest number of plaintiffs (or in the case of a putative class action, the largest number of putative class members) resides or is reasonably believed to reside.

(b) If any action within the scope of subsection (a) is filed in a jurisdiction other than one of those described in subsection (a), or if any non-class action filed in such a jurisdiction is subsequently amended or altered to add additional plaintiffs or to add class action allegations, then the Plan, any plaintiffs, and all alleged Plan participants must take all necessary steps to have the action removed to, transferred to, or re-filed in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a). Such steps may include, but are not limited to (1) a joint motion to transfer the action or (2) a joint motion to dismiss the action without prejudice to its re-filing in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a), with any applicable time limits or statutes of limitations applied as if the suit or class action allegation had originally been filed or asserted in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a) at the same time that it was filed or asserted in a jurisdiction not described therein.

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 37

(c) This forum selection provision is waived if no party invokes it within 120 days of the filing of a putative class action, the addition of plaintiffs or the assertion of class action allegations.

(d) This Section 11.8 does not relieve the Plan or any putative class member of any obligation existing under the Plan or by law to exhaust administrative remedies before initiating litigation or to comply with the limitation of actions provision set forth in Section 9.6 (“Time Limit on Commencing Litigation”).

Section 11.9.    Notices, Signature, Delivery.

Whenever a signature, acceptance, notice or delivery of a document is required or appropriate under the Plan, signature, notice or delivery may be accomplished by paper or written format, by electronic means, or by default. If electronic means are used for the signature, notice or delivery of a document hereunder, the electronic record or confirmation of that signature, notice or delivery maintained by or on behalf of the Committee shall for purposes of the Plan be treated as if it was a written signature or notice and was delivered in the manner provided herein for a written document. Similarly, to the extent that acceptance of a document occurs by default, the Committee’s failure to receive a rejection or opting out of a document shall for purposes of the Plan be treated as if it was a written acceptance delivered in the manner provided herein for a written document.

Section 11.10.    Successors.

The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Participant’s Employer and its successors and assigns, the Participant, the Participant’s Beneficiaries and their successors and assigns.

Section 11.11.     Severability.

If any provision of the Plan shall be held unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, the unlawfulness, invalidity, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Plan, each of which shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 11.12.     Payment on Behalf of Person Unable to Manage Affairs.

If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under this Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim therefor shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian, committee or other legal representative) may be paid to the spouse, a child, a parent, or a brother or sister, or to any person deemed by the Committee to have incurred expense for such person otherwise entitled to payment, in such manner and proportions as the Committee may determine. The Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Company under this Plan.

Section 11.13.     Distribution in the Event of Taxation.

(a) If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefit under this Plan becomes includable in the Participant’s gross income for Federal income tax purposes prior to

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 38

receipt of such benefit, the Participant may petition the Committee for a distribution of that portion of his benefit that has become taxable. Upon the grant of such a petition, which grant shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Participant’s Employer shall immediately distribute to the Participant funds in an amount equal to the taxable portion of his benefit (which amount shall not exceed the Participant’s unpaid Vested Account Balance under the Plan). If the petition is granted, the tax liability distribution shall be made within ninety (90) days of the date when the Participant’s petition is granted. Such a distribution shall correspondingly reduce the benefits with respect to the Participant under this Plan.

(b) In its discretion, the Committee may distribute all or a portion of the Participant’s benefit prior to the date the benefit would otherwise commence under Article 5 to the extent necessary to pay any FICA or income taxes which may be owed by the Participant on his benefit under the Plan and to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code.

Section 11.14.    Insurance.

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

Section 11.15.     Section 409A of the Code.

(a) The Plan will be interpreted to ensure that the payments contemplated hereby to be made by the Company to a Participant are exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that nothing in this Plan shall be interpreted or construed to transfer any liability for any tax (including a tax or penalty due as a result of a failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code) from any Participant, Participant’s spouse, Beneficiary, or estate to the Company, any Employer, or any other individual or entity.

(b) Any payment under the Plan that is subject to Section 409A of the Code and that is contingent on a termination of employment is contingent on a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Each such payment will be considered to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

(c) If, upon separation from service, a Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, any payment to such Participant that is subject to Section 409A of the Code and would otherwise be paid within six months after the Participant’s separation from service will instead be paid in the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service (to the extent required by Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code).

McCormick Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan Page 39

Section 11.16.     Other Benefits and Agreements.

The benefits provided for a Participant and Participant’s Beneficiary under the Plan are in addition to any other benefits available to such Participant under any other plan or program for employees of the Participant’s Employer. The Plan shall supplement and shall not supersede, modify or amend any other such plan or programs except as may otherwise be expressly provided.

Section 11.17.    Complete Statement of the Plan

This Plan contains a complete statement of its terms. The Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated only in writing and then only as provided in Section 8.1 (“Amendment, Suspension, and Termination”). A Participant’s right to any benefit of a type provided under the Plan is determined solely in accordance with the terms of the Plan. No other evidence, whether written or oral, will be taken into account in interpreting the provisions of the Plan.

Article 1. General Provisions

Section 1.1.    Purpose.

(a) This Plan is maintained to provide Participants an opportunity to defer compensation that would otherwise be currently payable to such Participants.

(b) This Plan is intended to be an unfunded plan maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Income Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Section 1.2.    History of the Plan.

(a) Before 2005, the Company provided deferred compensation benefits under a plan known as the “McCormick & Company, Incorporated Deferred Compensation Plan,” which was effective January 1, 2000 (the “2000 Plan”). On December 23, 2004, the 2000 Plan was frozen effective January 1, 2005, and no further deferrals were permitted under the 2000 Plan after 2004. All benefits under the 2000 Plan were vested as of December 31, 2004.

(b) This Plan was first effective January 1, 2005, and it incorporated the terms of the 2000 Plan, except to the extent those terms were inconsistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Since January 1, 2005, the Plan has been operated in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the applicable guidance thereunder.

Section 1.3.    Effective Date.

The Plan, as amended and restated in this document, is effective January 1, 2005.

(3) any person (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) becoming the beneficial owner (as defined in Section 4, “Common Stock,” subsection (b)(2)(C) of the Charter), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 13% (the “Specified Percentage”) of the voting power of all the outstanding securities of the Company having the right to vote in an election of the Board (after giving effect, to the extent applicable, to the operation of Section 4, “Common Stock,” subsection (b) of the Charter) (including, without limitation, any securities of the Company that any such person has the right to acquire pursuant to any agreement, or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options, or otherwise, which shall be deemed beneficially owned by such person), provided, however, that in the event that the vote limitation with respect to Substantial Stockholders set forth in Section 4, “Common Stock,” subsection (b) of the Charter becomes inoperative by virtue of the operation of Section 4, “Common Stock,” subsection (b)(12) of the Charter, or otherwise, the “Specified Percentage” shall be increased, without requirement for further action, to 35%; or

(1) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise,

(2) Bonus. A Participant may designate a fixed dollar amount, a whole percentage, or a percentage above a fixed dollar amount to be deducted from his Bonus. If a fixed dollar amount is designated by the Participant to be deducted from any Bonus payment and such fixed dollar amount exceeds the Bonus actually payable to the Participant, the entire amount of such Bonus shall be deducted.

Type of Compensation	Minimum Deferral Percentage
Base Annual Salary	10%
Bonus	10%
Directors’ Fees	10%

If an Election Form is submitted which would yield less than the stated minimum amounts, the amount deferred shall be zero.

(c) Maximum Deferral.

For any Plan Year, no deferral election shall be valid to the extent that it exceeds the following maximum percentages:

Type of Compensation	Maximum Deferral Percentage
Base Annual Salary	80%

Section 4.2.    Elections to Defer.

(a) Subject to the requirements of this Article 4, a Participant may elect to defer the receipt of Base Annual Salary and/or Bonus during any Plan Year.

(b) The Participant's intent to defer shall be evidenced by an annual Election Form, completed and submitted (either electronically or in writing) to the Committee or its designee in accordance with such procedures and time frames as may be established by the Committee.

(c) Amounts deferred by a Participant with respect to a given Plan Year shall be referred to collectively as Deferral Contributions and shall be credited to a Deferral Contribution Account established in the name of the Participant. The Deferral Contribution Account shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement of amounts to be paid to the Participant under the Plan. The Deferral Contribution Account shall not be, constitute or be treated as an escrow, trust fund, or any other type of funded account for Code or ERISA purposes, and amounts credited to any such account shall not be considered “plan assets” for ERISA purposes. The Deferral Contribution Account merely provides a record of the bookkeeping entries relating to the benefits that the Employer intends to provide Participant and shall thus reflect a mere unsecured promise to pay such amounts in the future.

(d) The Election Form must be submitted by the end of the immediately preceding Plan Year in order to be deemed timely for the following Plan Year with respect to deferrals of Base Annual Salary, except that a newly eligible Participant shall be permitted to submit an Election Form within 30 days of first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(a)(7).

(e) The Election Form must be submitted by the end of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year for which the Bonus is earned in order to be deemed timely for the following Plan Year

with respect to deferrals of Bonus, except that (1) a newly eligible Participant shall be permitted to submit an Election Form within 30 days of first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(a)(7), and (2) the Committee shall be permitted to treat as timely an Election Form that is submitted at least six months before the end of the applicable performance cycle with respect to deferrals of Bonus that constitute “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the elections otherwise comply with the requirements of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(a)(8).

(f) An Election Form shall be effective only with respect to (1) Base Annual Salary earned in the Plan Year to which the Election Form applies and (2) Bonuses earned for the Plan Year for which the Election Form applies (not Bonuses paid in the Plan Year for which the Election Form applies).

(g) If a Participant fails to submit an Election Form with respect to Base Salary for a Plan Year or fails to submit such form on a timely basis, the Participant shall not make Deferral Contributions with respect to Base Salary during the Plan Year. If a Participant fails to submit an Election Form with respect to Bonus for a Plan Year or fails to submit such form on a timely basis, the Participant shall not make Deferral Contributions with respect to the Participant’s Bonus earned during the Plan Year.

Section 4.3.    Suspension of Deferrals.

(a) Financial Emergencies. If a Participant experiences a Financial Emergency, the Participant may petition the Committee to suspend any deferrals required to be made by the Participant pursuant to his current Election Form. The Committee shall determine whether to approve the Participant’s petition. If the petition for a suspension is approved, suspension shall commence upon the date of approval and shall continue until the end of the Plan Year during which the Financial Emergency occurs. The Participant’s eligibility for Discretionary Contributions may also be similarly suspended.

(b) Disability. If a Participant is deemed to have suffered a Disability, any current Election Form of the Participant shall automatically be suspended and no further deferrals shall be required to be made by the Participant pursuant to his current Election Form as of the date on which the Participant incurs the Disability.

(c) If a Participant’s Deferral Contributions are suspended pursuant to Section 4.3(a) or (b), the Committee may also suspend the Participant’s eligibility for Discretionary Contributions.

Section 4.4.    Discretionary Contributions.

(a) A Participant may be credited with Discretionary Contributions for any Plan Year in which such amounts are declared by the applicable Employer with respect to the Participant. Such Discretionary Contributions shall be credited to a Discretionary Contribution Account in the name of the Participant.

(b) The applicable Employer shall have sole discretion to determine with respect to each Plan Year and each Participant (1) whether any Discretionary Contribution was declared with respect to the Participant, (2) the amount of such Discretionary Contribution, (3) the date as of which such Discretionary Contribution shall be credited to a Participant’s Discretionary Contribution Account, and (4) any other condition (such as vesting) that applies with respect to such Discretionary Contribution.

(c) The Discretionary Contribution Account shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement of amounts to be paid to the Participant under the Plan. The Discretionary Contribution Account shall not be, constitute or be treated as an escrow, trust fund, or any other type of funded account for Code or ERISA purposes, and amounts credited to such an account shall not be considered “plan assets” for ERISA purposes. The Discretionary Contribution Account merely provides a record of the bookkeeping entries relating to the benefits that the Employer intends to provide Participant and shall thus reflect a mere unsecured promise to pay such amounts in the future.

Section 4.5.    Selection of Hypothetical Investments.

(a) The Committee shall provide each Participant with a list of Hypothetical Investments available under the Plan. From time to time, the Committee may revise the Hypothetical Investments available within the Plan.

(b) The Participant shall, via his Investment Allocation Form(s) and his Investment Re-Allocation Form(s), select one or more Hypothetical Investments among which his various contributions shall be allocated.

(1) Investment Allocation Form. The document that (A) shall apply with respect to those Deferral Contributions and Discretionary Contributions made to the Plan after the effective date of the Investment Allocation Form but before the effective date of a timely filed subsequent Investment Allocation Form and (B) shall determine the manner in which such Deferral Contributions and/or Discretionary Contributions shall be initially allocated by the Participant among the various Hypothetical Investments within the Plan. A new Investment Allocation Form may be submitted by the Participant in written or electronic format, at such times and according to such procedures as the Committee shall establish.

(2) Investment Re-allocation Form. The document required by the Committee that shall re-direct the manner in which earlier Deferral Contributions and/or Discretionary Contributions, as well as any appreciation (or depreciation) to-date, are invested within the Hypothetical Investments (except Stock) available in the Plan.An Investment Re-Allocation Form may be submitted by the Participant in written or electronic format, at such times and according to such procedures as the Committee shall establish.

(c) All Hypothetical Investment selections must be denominated in whole percentages unless the Committee determines that lower increments (or whole dollar amounts) are

acceptable. A Participant may make changes in his selected Hypothetical Investments (except Stock) on a daily basis via submission of a new Investment Allocation Form or submission of a new Investment Re-Allocation Form. Before March 1, 2009 (or such other date as the Committee may establish for this purpose), once a Participant allocates a portion of the Participant’s accounts to hypothetical shares of Stock, the Participant may not decrease the number of hypothetical shares of Stock held in the Participant’s accounts. Effective March 1, 2009 (or such other date as the Committee may establish for this purpose), a Participant shall be permitted to increase or decrease an allocation with respect to Stock to the same extent, and subject to the same restrictions, as participants in The McCormick 401(k) Retirement Plancan modify their investments in Company stock in that plan.

(d) Any Participant who does not have on file a valid selection of Hypothetical Investments for his entire account shall be deemed to have elected to invest any portion for which there is no valid selection in the Hypothetical Investment that the Committee selects for this purpose.

Section 4.6.    Adjustment of Participant Accounts.

(a) While a Participant’s accounts do not represent the Participant’s ownership of, or any ownership interest in, any particular assets, the Participant’s accounts shall be adjusted in accordance with the Hypothetical Investment(s) chosen by the Participant on his Investment Allocation Form or Investment Re-Allocation Form, subject to the conditions and procedures set forth herein or established by the Committee.

(b) Any cash earnings generated under a Hypothetical Investment (such as hypothetical interest and cash dividends) shall, in the Committee’s sole discretion, either be deemed to be reinvested in that Hypothetical Investment or reinvested in one or more other Hypothetical Investment(s) designated by the Committee.

(c) All notional acquisitions and dispositions of Hypothetical Investments that occur within a Participant’s accounts, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, shall be deemed to occur at such times as the Committee shall determine to be administratively feasible and the Participant’s accounts shall be adjusted accordingly. Accordingly, if a distribution or re-allocation must occur pursuant to the terms of the Plan and all or some portion of the Account Balance must be valued in connection such distribution or re-allocation (to reflect Investment Adjustments), the Committee may, unless otherwise provided for in the Plan, select a date or dates that shall be used for valuation purposes.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, any Investment Adjustments made to any Participants’ accounts following a Change in Control shall be made in a manner no less favorable to Participants than the practices and procedures employed under the Plan, or as otherwise in effect, as of the date of the Change in Control.

Section 4.7.    Withholding of Taxes.

(a) Annual Withholding from Compensation. For any Plan Year in which Deferral Contributions are credited under the Plan, the Employer shall withhold the Participant’s share of FICA and other employment taxes from the portion of the Participant’s Base Annual Salary and/or Bonus not deferred. If deemed appropriate by the Committee, the Committee may reduce the amount deferred pursuant to the Participant’s Election Form where necessary to facilitate compliance with applicable withholding requirements.

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

Section 4.8.    Vesting.

The Participant shall at all times be one hundred percent (100%) vested in all Deferral Contributions, adjusted to reflect any appreciation (or depreciation) specifically attributable to such contributions due to Investment Adjustments.

Article 5. Payments from the Plan

Except as provided in Section 5.2 or Section 5.3, a Participant’s Account Balance shall be paid in a lump sum on the date that is six months after the Participant’s Separation from Service.

Section 5.2.    Election of Alternate Time or Form of Payment.

(a) In General. Except as provided in Section 5.3, if the Participant has a valid election on file with the Company as to the time and form of his benefit payment under the Plan, his benefit shall be paid at the time and in the form designated in his election.

(b) Initial Election.

(1) The Participant may elect a different time and/or form of payment for his benefit under the Plan from among the different alternatives available under the Plan as provided in Section 5.4.

(2) When the Participant submits his Election Form(s) in accordance with the requirements of Section 4.2 for a Plan Year, he shall specify the time and form of payment that shall apply with respect to the deferrals of Base Salary or Bonus for that Plan Year that are to be deferred pursuant to the Election Form submitted. The Participant may elect a different time and/or form of payment with respect to the deferral of Base Salary and Bonus for the same Plan Year, and with respect to the deferral of Base Salary and Bonus for different Plan Years.

(c) Changes to Election. A Participant may file an election to change the timing of his benefit payments or the form of benefit payments at the time and in the manner designated by the Committee, subject to the following conditions:

(1) the election to change the time or form of payment shall not take effect until twelve (12) months after the election is made;

(2) the election to change the time or form of payment must be filed at least 12 months prior to the date on which payments to the Participant are otherwise scheduled to commence; and

(3) the first payment with respect to which such election to change the form of payment is made must be deferred for a period of 5 years from the date such payment would otherwise have been made.

(d) Special Election in 2008. Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 5.2(c), Participants may make elections on or before December 31, 2008 as to the time and/or

form (or forms) of payment of such amounts, provided that such elections shall apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable in 2008 and may not cause an amount to be paid in 2008 that would not otherwise be payable in 2008.

Section 5.3.    Cash Out of Small Benefits.

Notwithstanding any elections to the contrary, if a Participant’s Account Balance on the date of his Separation from Service is less than the limit set forth in Section 402(g) of the Code ($15,500 in 2008), the benefit shall be paid in a lump sum on the date that is six months after the Participant’s Separation from Service.

Section 5.4.    Forms of Payment.

Benefits under the Plan may be payable in the form of annual installments over 5, 10, 15 or 20 years, a lump sum, or any other form of payment permitted by the Committee. If benefits are paid in the form of installments, the amount of each payment shall equal the unpaid portion of the Participant’s Vested Account Balance that is subject to the election to be paid in installments at the time the payment is made multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the total number of installment payments remaining to be made.

Section 5.5.    Time of Benefit Payments.

Except as provided in subsection (d) below, a Participant’s Account Balance (or portion thereof) that is not distributed in accordance with Section 5.1 or Section 5.3 shall be distributed upon the earliest of the payment events listed as Section 5.5(a)-(c) below, as elected by the Participant in accordance with Section 5.2, and payments shall be made at the time indicated for each payment event as follows:

(a) Separation from Service. If a Participant has elected to be paid in connection with the Participant’s Separation from Service with respect to any Deferral Contribution, payment of such Deferral Contribution and any appreciation or depreciation of such amount due to Investment Adjustments shall commence on the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service, except that any payments that are scheduled to be made on or within the first six months after Separation from Service shall be paid in one lump sum on the date that is six months after the Participant’s Separation from Service.

(b) Disability. Any portion of a Participant’s Account Balance that has not begun to be paid as of the date that the Participant is determined to be Disabled shall commence (in the case of installments) or be paid (in the case of a lump sum) within thirty (30) days after the Participant is determined to be Disabled.

(c) Interim Distribution Date. If the Participant has elected an Interim Distribution Date with respect to any Deferral Contribution, payment of such Deferral Contribution and any appreciation or depreciation of such amount due to Investment Adjustments shall commence within thirty (30) days after the earlier of (1) such Interim Distribution Date or (2) the Participant’s Separation from Service (subject to the six-month delay described in

subsection (a) above). Notwithstanding the prior sentence, in no event shall a Participant be permitted to select an Interim Distribution Date that is less than four (4) years from the date the election is made.

(d) Change in Control Event. Any portion of a Participant’s Account Balance that has not been paid as of the date of a Change in Control Event shall be paid in a single lump sum within ten (10) days after such Change in Control Event.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit a Participant to elect to be paid on the “earlier of” or the “later of” any of the permissible payment dates set forth in this Section 5.5.

Section 5.6.    Withdrawal in the Event of a Financial Emergency.

A Participant who believes he has experienced a Financial Emergency may request in writing a withdrawal of a portion of his accounts (except Stock) necessary to satisfy the emergency. The Committee shall determine (a) whether a Financial Emergency has occurred, (b) the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the Financial Emergency (which may include amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, local, or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution), and (c) the accounts from which the withdrawal shall be made. If the Committee approves the petition for a withdrawal, the distribution shall be made within thirty (30) days of the date of approval by the Committee.

Article 6. Death Benefits

Section 6.1.    Payments in the Event of Death.

(a) Death Benefit. If the Participant dies before the payment date designated in Article 5, the Participant’s Beneficiary shall receive the pre-retirement death benefit described below and no other benefits shall be payable under the Plan.

(b) Payment of Pre-Retirement Death Benefit. The pre-retirement death benefit shall be a lump-sum payment equal to the Participant’s Vested Account Balance and shall be made no later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Participant's death.

Section 6.2.    Beneficiary.

Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive, in the event of the Participant’s death, those benefits payable under the Plan. The Beneficiary(is) designated under this Plan may be the same as or different from the Beneficiary designation made under any other plan of the Employer.

Section 6.3.    Beneficiary Designation; Change; Spousal Consent.

A Participant shall designate his Beneficiary by completing and signing a Beneficiary Designation Form, and returning it to the Committee or its designated agent. A Participant shall have the right to change his Beneficiary by completing, signing and submitting to the Committee a revised Beneficiary Designation Form in accordance with the Committee’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time.If the Participant names someone other than his spouse as a Beneficiary, a spousal consent, in the form designated by the Committee, must be signed by that Participant’s spouse and returned to the Committee. Upon acknowledgement by the Committee of a revised Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be deemed canceled. The Committee shall rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form both (a) filed by the Participant and (b) acknowledged by the Committee, prior to the Participant’s death.

Section 6.4.    Acknowledgment.

No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until received, accepted and acknowledged in writing by the Committee or its designated agent. Any such acknowledgement not received by the Participant before his death shall not be valid.

Section 6.5.    No Beneficiary Designation.

If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided above or, if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Participant or die prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, then the Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his surviving spouse. If the Participant has no surviving spouse, the benefits remaining under the Plan shall be payable to the estate of the Participant.

Section 6.6.    Doubt as to Beneficiary.

If the Committee has any doubt as to the proper Beneficiary to receive payments pursuant to this Plan, the Committee shall have the right to cause the Participant’s Employer (or, if applicable, the trustee of the Trust) to withhold such payments until this matter is resolved to the Committee’s satisfaction.

Section 6.7.    Discharge of Obligations.

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

Article 7. Administration of the Plan

Section 7.1.    Designation of Committee.

This Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or the Management Committee of the Company, as the case may be. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the participation and benefits for the Company’s “executive officers,” as defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any other employees that it designates. The Management Committee reviews and approves the participation and benefits for all other executives. Members of the Management Committee may participate in this Plan.

Section 7.2.    Authority of Committee.

The Committee shall have the discretion and authority to (a) make, amend, interpret, and enforce all appropriate rules and regulations for the administration of this Plan and (b) decide or resolve any and all questions including interpretations of this Plan and facts that are relevant to the administration of the Plan, as may arise in connection with the Plan. Any individual serving on the Committee who is a Participant shall not vote or act on any matter relating solely to himself or herself. When making a determination or calculation, the Committee shall be entitled to rely on information furnished by Participant or an Employer.

Section 7.3.    Agents.

In the administration of this Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, employ or designate agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees fit (including acting through a duly appointed representative) and may from time to time consult with counsel who may be counsel to any Employer.

Section 7.4.    Binding Effect of Decisions.

The decision or action of the Committee with respect to any question arising out of or in connection with the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee hereunder shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan.

Section 7.5.    Indemnity of Committee.

All Employers shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the Committee, and any employee to whom duties of the Committee may be delegated, against any and all claims, losses, damages, expenses or liabilities arising from any action or failure to act with respect to this Plan, except in case of willful misconduct by the Committee or any of its members or any such employee.

Section 7.6.    Employer Information.

To enable the Committee to perform its functions, each Employer shall supply full and timely information to the Committee on all matters relating to the compensation of its Participants, the date and circumstances of the Disability, death or Separation from Service of its Participants, and such other pertinent information as the Committee may reasonably require.

Section 7.7.    Finality of Decisions.

Any actions taken hereunder, including any valuation of the amount, or designation of a recipient, or any payment to be made hereunder, shall be binding and conclusive on all persons for all purposes.

Article 8. Amendment and Termination

Section 8.1.    Amendment.

The Company may, at any time, amend or modify the Plan in whole or in part with respect to any or all Employers; provided that (a) no amendment or modification shall decrease or restrict the value of a Participant’s Vested Account Balance in existence at the time the amendment or modification is made, calculated as if the Participant had experienced a Separation from Service as of the effective date of the amendment or modification, and (b) after a Change in Control, no amendment or modification shall adversely affect the vesting, calculation or payment of benefits hereunder to any Participant or Beneficiary or diminish any other rights or protections any Participant or Beneficiary would have had, but for such amendment or modification, unless such affected Participant or Beneficiary consents in writing to such amendment.

Section 8.2.    Termination.

Although the Employers anticipate that they will continue the Plan for an indefinite period of time, there is no guarantee that any Employer will continue the Plan or will not terminate the

Plan at any time in the future. Accordingly, each Employer reserves the right to discontinue its sponsorship of the Plan and to terminate the Plan, at any time, with respect to its participating employees by action of its board of directors. Upon the termination of the Plan with respect to any Employer (and any other plan required to be aggregated with this Plan pursuant to Section 409A of the Code), the Company may, in its discretion, elect to distribute to each Participant the full amount of his benefit under the Plan in a lump sum no earlier than the 13th month and no later than the 24th month after the termination of the Plan, provided that the termination of the Plan is not proximate to a downturn in the Company’s financial heath and the Company does not adopt any new arrangement that would have been aggregated with the Plan under Section 409A within three years following the date of the Plan’s termination.

Section 8.3.    Effect of Payment.

The full payment of the applicable benefit under the provisions of the Plan shall completely discharge all obligations to a Participant and his Beneficiaries under this Plan and each of the Participant’s Participation Agreement shall terminate.

Section 8.4.    Section 409A of the Code.

If the Company determines that any provision of the Plan is or might be inconsistent with the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent that the Company determines is necessary to bring it into compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Any such deemed amendment shall be effective as of the earliest date such amendment is necessary under Section 409A of the Code. No amendment or termination pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan shall be effective to the extent that it would result in a violation of any requirement under Section 409A of the Code.

Article 9. Claims Procedures

Section 9.1.    Presentation of Claim.

Any Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant (such Participant or Beneficiary being referred to below as a “Claimant”) may deliver to the Committee a written claim for a determination with respect to the amounts distributable to such Claimant from the Plan. If such a claim relates to the contents of a notice received by the Claimant, the claim must be made within thirty (30) days after such notice was received by the Claimant. The claim must state with particularity the determination desired by the Claimant. All other claims must be made within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date on which the event that caused the claim to arise occurred. The claim must state with particularity the determination desired by the Claimant.

Section 9.2.    Notification of Decision.

The Claimant will receive written notification if any such extension is necessary.

Section 9.3.    Review of a Denied Claim.

Within sixty (60) days after receiving a notice from the Committee that a claim has been denied, in whole or in part, a Claimant (or the Claimant’s duly authorized representative) may file with the Committee a written request for a review of the denial of the claim.

Section 9.4.    Decision on Review.

The Committee shall render its decision on review promptly, and not later than sixty (60) days after the filing of a written request for review of the denial, unless a hearing is held or other special circumstances require additional time, in which case the Committee’s decision must be rendered within one hundred twenty (120) days after such date. The Claimant will receive written notification if any extension beyond the original sixty (60) days is necessary. Such decision must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and it must contain:

(a) specific reasons for the decision;

(b) specific reference(s) to the pertinent Plan provisions upon which the decision was based;

(d) a statement of the Claimant's right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA.

Section 9.5.    Section 409A of the Code.

For this purpose (and as determined under such regulation), efforts to collect the payment will be presumed not to be prompt, reasonable, good faith efforts, unless the Participant or Beneficiary provides notice to the Committee within 90 days of the latest date upon which the payment could have been timely made in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the regulations under Section 409A of the Code, and unless, if not paid, the Participant or Beneficiary takes further enforcement measures within 180 days after such latest date.

Article 10. Trust

Section 10.1.    Establishment of the Trust.

The Company may utilize one or more Trusts to which the Employers may transfer such assets as the Employers determine in their sole discretion to assist in meeting their obligations under the Plan. Any Trust shall conform to the restrictions under Section 409A of the Code relating to the funding of nonqualified deferred compensation plans. Benefits under the Plan may also be paid out of the general assets of the Company or an Employer.

Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant or any other person.

Section 10.2.    Interrelationship of the Plan and the Trust.

The provisions of the Plan shall govern the rights of a Participant to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the Employers, Participants and the creditors of the Employers to the assets transferred to the Trust.

Section 10.3.    Distributions From the Trust.

Each Employer’s obligations under the Plan may be satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and any such distribution shall reduce the Employer’s obligations under this Agreement.

Article 11. Miscellaneous

Section 11.1.    Status of Plan.

The Plan is intended to be a plan that is not qualified within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code and that “is unfunded and is maintained by an employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of ERISA. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with that intent. All Participant accounts and all credits and other adjustments to such Participant accounts shall be bookkeeping entries only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of amounts to be paid under the Plan. No Participant accounts, credits or other adjustments under the Plan shall be interpreted as an indication that any benefits under the Plan are in any way funded.

Section 11.2.    Unsecured General Creditor.

Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of the Company or an Employer or in any property or assets held in a Trust maintained with respect to the Plan. For purposes of the payment of benefits under this Plan, any and all of an Employer’s assets, shall be, and shall remain, the general, unpledged unrestricted assets of the Employer. Any Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan, such rights shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

Section 11.3.    Employer’s Liability.

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

Section 11.4.    Nonassignability.

Except to the extent required by an approved domestic relations order, neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in actual receipt, the amount, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. Except as required by law or an approved domestic relations order, no part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency.

Section 11.5.    Not a Contract of Employment.

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

Section 11.6.    Furnishing Information.

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

Section 11.7.    Governing Law.

The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to ERISA and the internal laws of the State of Maryland without regard to its conflicts of laws principles, to the extent not preempted by ERISA.

Section 11.8.    Required or Permitted Notices.

Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Committee under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, to the address below:

McCormick & Company, Incorporated

18 Loveton Circle

Sparks, Maryland 21152

Attn: Vice President – Human Relations

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

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

Section 11.9.    Successors.

The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Participant’s Employer and its successors and assigns, the Participant, the Participant’s Beneficiaries and their successors and assigns.

Section 11.10.     Severability.

If any provision of the Plan shall be held unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, the unlawfulness, invalidity, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Plan, each of which shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 11.11.     Payment on Behalf of Person Unable to Manage Affairs.

If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under this Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim therefor shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian, committee or other legal representative) may be paid to the spouse, a child, a parent, or a brother or sister, or to any person deemed by the Committee to have incurred expense for such person otherwise entitled to payment, in such manner and proportions as the Committee may determine. The Committee may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Company under this Plan.

Section 11.12.     Distribution in the Event of Taxation.

(a) If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefit under this Plan becomes includable in the Participant’s gross income for Federal income tax purposes prior to receipt of such benefit, the Participant may petition the Committee for a distribution of that portion of his benefit that has become taxable. Upon the grant of such a petition, which grant shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Participant’s Employer shall immediately distribute to the Participant funds in an amount equal to the taxable portion of his benefit (which amount shall not exceed the Participant’s unpaid Vested Account Balance under the Plan). If the petition is granted, the tax liability distribution shall be made within ninety (90) days of the date when the Participant’s petition is granted. Such a distribution shall correspondingly reduce the benefits with respect to the Participant under this Plan.

(b) In its discretion, the Committee may distribute all or a portion of the Participant’s benefit prior to his Benefit Commencement Date to the extent necessary to pay any FICA or income taxes which may be owed by the Participant on his benefit under the Plan and to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code.

Section 11.13.    Insurance.

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

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

Section 11.14.     Section 409A of the Code.

No provision in the Plan shall be interpreted or construed to (a) create any liability for the Company or an Employer related to a failure to comply with Section 409A or (b) transfer any liability for a failure to comply with Section 409A from a Participant, a Participant’s spouse, beneficiary, estate or other individual to the Company or an Employer.

Section 11.15.     Other Benefits and Agreements.

The benefits provided for a Participant and Participant’s Beneficiary under the Plan are in addition to any other benefits available to such Participant under any other plan or program for employees of the Participant’s Employer. The Plan shall supplement and shall not supersede, modify or amend any other such plan or programs except as may otherwise be expressly provided.

NON-QUALIFIED RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

Article 1. General Provisions

Section 1.1.    Purpose.

This Plan is designed to restore benefits that would have accrued under the Pension Plan but are restricted due to the limits on compensation imposed by Sections 415 and 401(a)(17) of the Code and to provide supplemental retirement benefits to senior executives in management positions selected by the Committee. Benefits provided under the Plan are structured to facilitate an orderly transition within the ranks of senior management and to provide for an equitable retirement benefit for such individuals consistent with competitive conditions in the marketplace.

Section 1.2.    History of the Plan.

(a) Effective June 19, 2001, the Company amended and restated the Plan. The terms of the Plan, as set forth in the 2001 restatement, continue to apply to Grandfathered Benefits, which are not subject to Section 409A of the Code, and are set forth in Appendix A of the current restatement.

(b) On December 24, 2004, the Company adopted a resolution to amend the Plan to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. As part of this resolution, the Company undertook to administer the Plan in accordance with a reasonable interpretation of Section 409A of the Code. This resolution was effective January 1, 2005.

(c) In accordance with the December 24, 2004, resolution and amendment, the Plan has been operated in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the applicable guidance since January 1, 2005.

(d) Effective January 31, 2017, the Plan has been frozen and merged into the McCormick & Company Incorporated Nonqualified Retirement Savings Plan. After that date, no Participant shall accrue any additional benefits under the Plan and no individual shall become a Participant in the Plan. In addition, the calculation of a Participant’s benefit under the McCormick Pension Plan used to offset the benefit under the Plan shall be frozen effective January 31, 2017.

Section 1.3.    Effective Date.

The Plan, as amended and restated in this document, is effective February 1, 2017.

benefits calculated under this Section shall be based on the Employee’s actual attained age at the time of the calculation.

McCormick Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan        Page 13

Service or Disability to a form of payment permitted under Section 4.3(a) that is not treated as an actuarially equivalent life annuity (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(ii)(B)) with respect to the form of benefit that he would have received under Section 4.1(a) or Section 4.1(b), provided that such change is made at the time and in the manner designated by the Committee, and subject to the following conditions:

An Employee may file separate elections to change the time or form of payment for payments upon a Separation from Service and Disability. For purposes of this Section 4.5(b), a series of installment payments over a period of five years or less shall be treated as a single payment, and an election between actuarially equivalent life annuities shall be permitted at any time permitted under Section 409A of the Code.

Section 4.6.    Beneficiary in the Event of Death.

If the Employee dies before age 55, the surviving spouse’s benefit shall commence payment on the first day of the month following the date on which the Employee would have reached age 55, and the surviving spouse’s benefit shall be calculated as if the Employee had reached age 55, but based on the Employee’s actual compensation and years of service as of his date of death. If death occurs after the Employee has begun to receive payment of his benefit under the Plan, the beneficiary shall receive any benefit to which he is entitled under the form in which the benefit was being paid. If the Employee is unmarried and has not yet commenced his or her benefit at the time of the Employee’s death, the Employee’s beneficiaries, heirs, or estate shall not be entitled to a benefit under the Plan.
