Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or in a Participant or Company payment election, the Plan may not make payment based on Separation from Service to a Participant who, on the date of Separation from Service is a Specified Employee, earlier than 6 months following Separation from Service (or if earlier, upon the Specified Employee’s death), except as permitted under this provision. This limitation applies regardless of the Participant’s status as a Specified Employee or otherwise on any other date including the next Specified Employee effective date had the Participant continued to render services through such date. Furthermore, the first six (6) months of any such payments of deferred compensation that are required to be paid in installments shall be paid at the beginning of the seventh (7^th) month following the Participant’s separation from Service. All remaining installment payments shall be made as would ordinarily have been made under the provisions of the Plan.

8

shares, or other similar corporate change, the Administrator shall make such adjustments in the number of shares of Phantom Stock reserved under the Plan and the number of shares of Phantom Stock with respect to which an Award held by any Participant is referenced, as are necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of an Award. Such adjustments shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties concerned.

ARTICLE 8. CANCELLATION OF AWARDS. The Administrator may cancel all or any part of an Award with the written consent of the Participant holding such Award. In the event of any cancellation, all rights of the Participant in respect of such cancelled Award shall terminate.

Awards shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and may be realized, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant or by his or her guardian or legal representative.

9.2. No Right to Awards or Employment. No Eligible Key Employee, Participant or other person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award.

Nothing contained in this Plan shall create or be construed as creating a trust of any kind or any other fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of the Company.

9

9.4. Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct from payment of an Award any taxes required by law to be withheld from the Participant with respect to such payment.

Whenever possible, each provision in the Plan and in every Award Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement made thereunder shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, then (i) such provision shall be deemed amended to, and to have contained from the outset such language shall be necessary to, accomplish the objectives of the provision as originally written to the fullest extent permitted by law, and (ii) all other provisions of the Plan and every Award Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

9.9. Governing Law. The Plan and the performance hereunder and all suits and special proceedings hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with and under and pursuant to the laws of the State of North Carolina without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof, except as superseded by applicable federal law.

10.2. Unilateral Authority of Administrator to Modify Plan and Awards. Notwithstanding Section 10.1, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) The Administrator shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and any Award (without Participant consent and without shareholder approval, unless such shareholder approval is required by Applicable Laws) to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws or changes to Applicable Laws (including but not limited to Code Section 409A or related regulations or other guidance and federal securities laws).

(b) The Administrator shall have unilateral authority to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or of changes in accounting principles, if the Administrator determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable accounting principles.

ARTICLE 11. COMPLIANCE WITH CODE SECTION 409A. To the extent applicable, the Company intends that this Plan comply with Section 409A of the Code, and all rules, regulations and other similar guidance issued thereunder (“Code Section 409A”). This Plan shall at all times be interpreted and construed in a manner to comply with Code Section 409A (including compliance with any applicable exemptions from Code Section 409A) and that should any provision be found not in compliance with Code Section 409A, the Company shall execute any and all amendments to this Plan deemed necessary and required by the Company’s legal counsel to achieve compliance with Code Section 409A or any applicable exemption. In no event shall any payment required to be made pursuant to ARTICLE 6 of this Plan that is considered deferred compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A be made to the Participant unless he has incurred a separation from service (as defined in Code Section 409A). In the event amendments are required to make this Plan compliant with Code Section 409A, the Company shall use its best efforts to provide the Participant with substantially the same benefits and payments he would have been entitled to pursuant to this Plan had Code

11

Section 409A not applied, but in a manner that is compliant with Code Section 409A or any of its exemptions. The manner in which the immediately preceding sentence shall be implemented shall be the subject of good faith determination of the Company. In no event shall any payment required to be made pursuant to this Plan that is considered deferred compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A (and is not otherwise exempt from the provisions thereof) be accelerated in violation of Code Section 409A. Any payment to a Specified Employee that is considered deferred compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A (and is not otherwise exempt from the provisions thereof) and is made as a result of a separation from service cannot commence under Code Section 409A until the lapse of six (6) months after a separation from service (or death of the Participant, if earlier).

ARTICLE 12. SUCCESSORS. The Plan shall bind any successor of or to the Company, the Company’s assets or the Company’s businesses (whether direct or indirect, by purchase of such assets or businesses, merger, consolidation or otherwise), in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be obligated under the Plan if no succession had taken place. In the case of any transaction in which a successor would not by the foregoing provision or by operation of law be bound by the Plan, the Company shall require such successor expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Company’s obligations under the Plan, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. The term “Company,” as used in the Plan, shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor or assignee to the business or assets which by reason hereof becomes bound by the Plan. The Plan shall bind the Participants, their executors, administrators, personal representatives and beneficiaries.
