SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

WHEREAS, Sysco Corporation (“Sysco”) established the Sysco Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”), originally effective July 3, 1988, to provide a select group of highly compensated management personnel within the meaning of Sections 201, 301 and 401 of ERISA (and therefore exempt from the requirements of Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA as a “top hat” plan and eligible for the alternative method of compliance for reporting and disclosure which is available for such plans), a supplement to their retirement pay so as to retain their loyalty and to offer them a further incentive to maintain and increase their standard of performance;

WHEREAS, Sysco’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”) amended and restated the SERP pursuant to that certain Tenth Amended and Restated Sysco Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Current Plan”), effective as of August 27, 2010 (as amended pursuant to that certain First Amendment dated May 27, 2011, that certain Second Amendment dated February 22, 2012 and that certain Third Amendment dated November 13, 2012), which among other things adopted the Third Amended and Restated MIP Retirement Program effective as of December 31, 2012 (the “Program”) which is attached as Appendix I to the Current Plan;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Current Plan, the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) or their designees may amend the Current Plan (including the Program) by an instrument in writing;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Current Plan, the Compensation Committee may increase a participant’s vested percentage under the Current Plan to an amount not to exceed 100%;

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee has determined that it is in the best interests of Sysco and its stockholders to amend and restate the Current Plan to, among other things, (i) cease the accrual of benefits under the Current Plan effective June 29, 2013; (ii) provide that the accrued benefits of Active and Frozen Participants in the Current Plan on June 29, 2013 will be 100% vested effective June 29, 2013, subject to reduction pursuant to an early retirement factor for Participants who are not eligible for immediate commencement of benefit payment at Retirement or Vested Separation; and (iii) make such other changes to the Current Plan to implement the changes in (i) and (ii) above, and to ease administration of the Current Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, Sysco hereby adopts this Eleventh Amended and Restated Sysco Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (including the Third Amended and Restated Sysco Corporation MIP Retirement Program, attached as Appendix I hereto) (the “Plan”), effective as of June 29, 2013, as follows:

Ten-Year Final Average Compensation defined in (b) below, “salary” shall mean the annual rate of the Participant’s base salary as of his last day of employment during the applicable Plan Year.

(b) Ten-Year Final Average Compensation. Except as provided in Section 5.1(c), “Ten-Year Final Average Compensation” means the monthly average of the Participant’s Eligible Earnings for the ten (10) Plan Years (excluding those Plan Years in which the Participant does not have any Eligible Earnings) ending on June 29, 2013. If the Participant does not have ten (10) Plan Years of Eligible Earnings, the Participant’s Ten-Year Final Average Compensation shall be based on the monthly average of Eligible Earnings for the available Plan Years ending on June 29, 2013. The Plan Year in which the Participant was originally hired shall be disregarded if he was hired after the first business day of such Plan Year.

(c) High-Five Average Compensation as of June 28, 2008. Except as provided in Section 5.1(d), “High-Five Average Compensation as of June 28, 2008” means the monthly average of the Participant’s Eligible Earnings for the five (5) full Plan Years (which need not be successive) that yield the highest monthly average of Eligible Earnings out of the ten (10) full Plan Years ending June 28, 2008. If the Participant does not have five (5) full Plan Years of Eligible Earnings, the Participant’s High-Five Average Compensation as of June 28, 2008 shall be based on the monthly average of Eligible Earnings for the available full Plan Years ending June 28, 2008.

(d) Benefit Service. Except as provided in Section 5.1(b), “Benefit Service” means service with Sysco and its Subsidiaries through (i) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i), and (ii) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii), for which the Participant is awarded “credited service” under the Pension Plan for vesting purposes or would have been awarded “credited service” under the Pension Plan for vesting purposes if the Participant was covered under the Pension Plan; provided, however, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, award a Participant additional Benefit Service.

(e) Service Factor. “Service Factor” means a fraction equal to the Participant’s full years of Benefit Service as determined under Section 4.1(d) (not to exceed twenty (20) years) divided by twenty (20).

(g) Defined Benefit Offset. “Defined Benefit Offset” refers to the offset of the Participant’s vested accrued benefit under the Pension Plan, and each other U.S. tax-qualified defined benefit plan, or Canadian registered pension plan sponsored by Sysco or a Subsidiary (or any company for which the Participant worked that was acquired by Sysco or a Subsidiary), each determined as of (i) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, as provided under Section 5.1(f), and (ii) December 31, 2012, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, as provided under Section 5.1(f), and further determined as follows:

(i) Such a vested accrued benefit shall only reflect the benefit derived from employer contributions.

(ii) Each such vested accrued benefit will be adjusted in accordance with provisions of the applicable plan to reflect an assumed benefit commencement date of the later of (A) the Benefit Commencement Date or (B) the date a retirement benefit is first payable to the Participant under the applicable plan without regard to the actual election made by the Participant under such plan. The resulting amount shall be converted to an Actuarially Equivalent Annuity as of the assumed benefit commencement date.

(iii) Such benefits shall include prior distributions (subject to the limitation in item (i) and including but not limited to an in-service withdrawal or a qualified domestic relations order distribution), increased with interest. If the prior distribution was a lump-sum payment, interest will be credited from the date of the lump-sum payment. If the prior distribution consists or consisted of periodic payments, the Actuarially Equivalent single-sum value of the stream of payments will be determined as of the date of the first periodic payment and increased with interest from such date. Interest on the lump-sum payment or single-sum value of periodic payments will be credited to the assumed benefit commencement date described in (ii) above using the interest rate used for determining Actuarial Equivalence. The resulting amount will be converted to an Actuarial Equivalent Annuity as described in (ii) above.

(h) Defined Contribution Offset. “Defined Contribution Offset” refers to the offset of an Annuity that could be provided by the Participant’s vested account balance under the 401(k) Plan, and each other U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution plan or each Canadian tax-registered capital accumulation plan, sponsored by Sysco or a Subsidiary (or any company for which the Participant worked that was acquired by Sysco or a Subsidiary), determined as follows:

(i) Such account balance shall only reflect the vested balance derived from employer contributions, excluding the balance attributable to 401(k) Plan salary deferrals.

(ii) Such account balance shall be determined as (1) May 31, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, as provided under Section 5.1(f), and (ii) December 31, 2012, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, as provided under Section 5.1(f). This balance will be increased with interest to the Benefit Commencement Date, using the interest rate used for determining Actuarial Equivalence and shall be converted to an Actuarially Equivalent Annuity as of the Benefit Commencement Date.

(iii) Such balances shall include prior distributions (subject to the limitation in item (i) and including but not limited to an in-service withdrawal or a qualified domestic relations order distribution), increased with interest. Interest will be credited from the date of the lump-sum payment to the Benefit Commencement Date, using the interest rate used for determining Actuarial Equivalence. The resulting balance shall be converted to an Actuarially Equivalent Annuity as of the Benefit Commencement Date.

(i) Social Security Offset. “Social Security Offset” means the Participant’s monthly old-age benefit under the Federal Social Security Act or any similar federal act in effect (i) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, as of the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation as provided under Section 5.1(f), and (ii) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, as of the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation as provided under Section 5.1(f), and payable as of the later of age sixty-two (62) or the Benefit Commencement Date (the “Social Security Benefit”), and without regard to whether such Social Security Benefit is actually delayed, superseded, or forfeited because of failure to apply or for any other reason. The amount of the Social Security Benefit shall be determined based upon the pay and employment data that may be furnished by the Company and/or the Participant concerned and it shall be assumed that the Participant has no compensation after (1) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation, subject to Section 5.1(f), and (2) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation. Any pay for periods prior to the earliest data furnished shall be estimated by applying a salary scale discount, and the discount applied for this purpose shall be the actual change in average wages from year to year as determined by the Social Security Administration.

(j) Canada/Quebec Pension Plan Offset. “Canada/Quebec Pension Plan Offset” means the Participant’s monthly retirement benefit payable under the Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan, as applicable, as in effect (i) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, as of the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation as provided under Section 5.1(f), and (ii) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, as of the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation as provided under Section 5.1(f), and payable as of the later of age sixty (60) or the Benefit Commencement Date (the “Canada/Quebec Pension Benefit”), and without regard to whether such Canada/Quebec Pension Benefit is actually delayed, superseded, or forfeited because of failure to apply or for any other reason. The amount of the Canada/Quebec Pension Benefit shall be determined based upon the pay and employment data that may be furnished by the Company and/or the Participant concerned and it shall be assumed that the Participant has no compensation or service for benefit accrual purposes under such plan after (1) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation, subject to Section 5.1(f), and (2) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation.

If a Participant has paid into both the US Federal Social Security and either the Canada Pension Plan or the Quebec Pension Plan, while an employee of Sysco or its Subsidiaries, the monthly Social Security Offset will be assumed to be zero and the monthly Canada/Quebec Pension Plan Offset will be determined to be a theoretical amount calculated under the Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan, as applicable, as if the Participant had always been covered under and contributing to the Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan. For purposes of determining the monthly Canada/Quebec Pension Plan Offset, the amount of the benefit shall be determined based upon the pay and employment data that may be furnished by the Company and/or the Participant while a Canadian Participant. Any pay for periods prior to the earliest data furnished shall be estimated by applying a salary scale discount, and the discount applied for this purpose shall be the actual change in average wages from year to year as determined for purposes of the Canada Pension Plan or the Quebec Pension Plan, as applicable. Any pay for periods prior to (i) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation as provided under Section 5.1(f), and (ii) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation, but after the latest data furnished, shall be estimated by applying a salary scale factor, and the factor applied for this purpose shall be the actual change in average wages from year to year as determined for purposes of the Canada Pension Plan or the Quebec Pension Plan, as applicable. It shall be assumed that the Participant has no compensation after (1) June 28, 2008, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation, subject to Section 5.1(f), and (2) June 29, 2013, for purposes of Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 4.2(b)(ii) or, in the case of a Frozen Participant, the Frozen Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation.

Article V

frozen participation

5.1 In General This Section 5.1 provides special rules that apply to a Participant whose status as of June 29, 2013 is that of a Frozen Participant, whether participation was frozen on or before June 29, 2013. In the case of a Frozen Participant whose participation was frozen before June 28, 2008, such Frozen Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit shall be determined using the benefit formula in effect under the Plan as of the date his participation was frozen.

(a) Vesting Service and Age Credit. During the period of time during which his participation is frozen, a Frozen Participant shall continue to be awarded Vesting Service and age credit for satisfaction of the Early Payment Criteria under Section 4.1(l) and determination of the ERF under Section 4.1(m).

(b) Benefit Service. A Frozen Participant’s service from and after the date his participation is so frozen shall not count as Benefit Service, except as provided under Section 5.2.

(c) Ten-Year Final Average Compensation. If a Frozen Participant is eligible for the benefits under Section 4.2(a)(ii) or 4.2(b)(ii), Ten-Year Final Average Compensation shall be determined as of the date his participation was so frozen.

(d) High-Five Average Compensation as of June 28, 2008. A Frozen Participant’s High-Five Average Compensation as of June 28, 2008 shall be determined as of the date his participation was frozen if such date was prior to June 28, 2008.

(e) MIP Participation. Frozen Participation shall not count as MIP Participation, except during periods in which such Frozen Participant is a MIP participant or as provided under Section 5.2.

(f) Offset Amount. If a Frozen Participant’s participation was frozen after June 28, 2008, such Frozen Participant’s Offset Amount used in the determination of such Frozen Participant’s benefits as of June 28, 2008 under Sections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b)(i) shall be determined in the same manner as an Active Participant. In all other cases, for purposes of determining the Offset Amount under the benefit formulas in Section 4.2, (i) the Defined Benefit Offset, Social Security Offset and Canada/Quebec Pension Plan Offset shall be determined as of the Frozen Participant’s date of Retirement or Vested Separation, and (ii) the account balance specified in the first sentence of Section 4.1(h)(ii) for the Defined Contribution Offset shall be the balance as of the last day of the month preceding the month of the Frozen Participant’s date of Retirement or Vested Separation, subject to the adjustments specified in Section 4.1(h).

5.2 Active Participant Previously Frozen. If the participation of an Active Participant on June 29, 2013 was previously frozen for a period of time and he subsequently became eligible to participate in the Current Plan on or before June 29, 2013, he shall, for all purposes under the Plan, be treated as though his participation had never been frozen.

Article VI
DEATH BENEFIT

6.1 Definitions The following definitions are used in this Article VI:

(a) Vested Separated Participant. “Vested Separated Participant” means a Participant who becomes entitled to a deferred Vested Accrued Benefit commencing under the payment criteria under Section 4.3(a) after June 29, 2013 and whose Benefit Commencement Date has not occurred.

(b) Retired Participant. “Retired Participant” means a Participant (i) whose Benefit Commencement Date occurred after June 29, 2013 but who has not yet received his first benefit payment or (ii) who is receiving benefit payments, which began after June 29, 2013.

(c) Three-Year Final Average Compensation. “Three-Year Final Average Compensation” means the annual average of the Participant’s Death Benefit Eligible Earnings for the three (3) Plan Years (excluding those Plan Years in which the Participant does not have any Eligible Earnings) ending on June 29, 2013. Unless otherwise provided herein, the Plan Year in which the Participant was originally hired shall be disregarded if he was hired after the first business day of such Plan Year. If the Participant does not have three (3) Plan Years of Death Benefit Eligible Earnings, the Participant’s Three-Year Final Average Compensation shall be based on the annual average of Death Benefit Eligible Earnings for the available Plan Years through June 29, 2013. If all Plan Years have been excluded (i.e. there are no “available” Plan Years), Three-Year Final Average Compensation shall mean the Participant’s Death Benefit Eligible Earnings in the Plan Year in which he was originally hired.

(d) Death Benefit Eligible Earnings. “Death Benefit Eligible Earnings” shall have the same meaning as “Eligible Earnings” (as defined in Section 4.1(a)); provided, however, the salary component of Eligible Earnings shall mean the annual rate of the Participant’s base salary as of his last day of employment during the applicable Plan Year, and the cap on the MIP Bonus shall not apply.

6.2 Death of an Active Participant. If an Active Participant dies while in the employ of the Company, such Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary shall be entitled to a monthly annuity payable for life with a ten (10) year certain period commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Participant’s death. Such monthly annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the greater of the Actuarially Equivalent single-sum value of (i) or (ii), where (i) is an annual payment equal to 25% of the Participant’s Three-Year Final Average Compensation payable for ten (10) years certain, and (ii) is (x) if the Participant is at least age 65 or satisfies the Early Payment Criteria under Section 4.1(l), the Retirement Benefit that would have been payable as an Annuity under Section 4.2(b) assuming the participant had retired on his date of death or (y) if the Participant does not satisfy the condition in (x), the hypothetical immediate Annuity equal to the deferred Annuity that would have been payable to the Participant under Section 4.2(a), assuming the Participant had retired on his date of death, reduced for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit precedes the first day of the month on or after date the

Participant would have attained age sixty-five (65), by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first one hundred twenty (120) calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence).

6.3 Death of Frozen Participant If a Frozen Participant dies while in the employ of Sysco or a Subsidiary, such Frozen Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary shall be entitled to a monthly annuity payable for life with a ten (10) year certain period commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Frozen Participant’s death. Such monthly annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the single sum value of the survivor’s benefit that would have been payable to the Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary if the Participant had begun receiving a hypothetical Retirement Benefit on his date of death, determined as follows:

(a) If the Participant is at least age 65 or has satisfied the Early Payment Criteria under Section 4.1(l) on his date of death, the amount of such hypothetical retirement benefit shall equal the Participant’s Retirement Benefit determined under Section 4.2(b) as of his date of death, adjusted, as applicable, to take into account the form of such Participant’s Retirement Benefit under Section 4.4.

(b) If the Participant does not meet the requirements of Section 6.3(a), the amount of such hypothetical retirement benefit shall equal the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit determined under Section 4.2(a) as of his date of death, reduced, for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit precedes the first day of the month on or after date the Participant would have attained age sixty-five (65), by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first one hundred twenty (120) calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence), adjusted, as applicable, to take into account the form of such Participant’s Retirement Benefit under Section 4.4.

(c) For purposes of determining the amount of the survivor’s benefit under this Section 6.3, if a Participant’s Retirement Benefit would have been paid in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity, and the Participant designated a Beneficiary other than his spouse, his Beneficiary shall be substituted for the Participant’s “spouse” for purposes of the conversion to a Joint and Survivor Annuity.

6.4 Death of Vested Separated Participant. Upon the death of a Vested Separated Participant, such Participant’s Beneficiary shall be entitled to a monthly annuity payable for life with a ten (10) year certain period commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Participant’s death. Such monthly annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the single-sum value of the survivor’s benefit that would have been payable to the Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary if the Participant had begun receiving a hypothetical retirement benefit on his date of death. The amount of such hypothetical retirement benefit shall equal the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit as determined under Section 4.2(a), reduced, for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit precedes the first day of the month on or after date the Participant would have attained age sixty-five (65), by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first one hundred twenty (120) calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence), adjusted as applicable, to take into account the form of such Participant’s Retirement Benefit under Section 4.4. For purposes of determining the amount of the survivor’s benefit under this Section 6.4, if a Participant’s Retirement Benefit would have been paid in the form of a Joint and

Survivor Annuity, and the Participant designated a Beneficiary other than his spouse, his Beneficiary shall be substituted for the Participant’s “spouse” for purposes of the conversion to the Joint and Survivor Annuity.

6.5 Death of Retired Participant before or after Commencement of Benefits . If a Retired Participant (a) dies before benefit payments begin or (b) dies after benefit payments begin, any death benefit that may be payable is a function of the form of payment applicable to such Retired Participant (Joint and Survivor Annuity or Annuity as provided under Section 4.4), as described below:

(a) Joint and Survivor Annuity.

(i) Death of Participant or Spouse during Ten (10) Year Certain Period. If either the Participant or his spouse (but not both) dies before the first benefit payment or during the ten (10) year certain period following the Benefit Commencement Date, the benefit amount payable during their joint lives shall be paid to the survivor for the balance of the ten (10) year certain period and then two-thirds (2/3) of that amount shall be paid to the survivor for life.

(ii) Death of Both Participant and Spouse during Ten (10) Year Certain Period. If both the Participant and his spouse die before the first benefit payment or during the ten (10) year certain period following the Benefit Commencement Date, the benefit amount payable during their joint lives shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary for the balance of the ten (10) year certain period.

(iii) Cessation of Benefits. No further benefits are payable after the later of (a) the deaths of the Participant and his spouse or (b) the end of the ten (10) year certain period.

(iv) Spouse. For purposes of this Section 6.5(a), “spouse” refers to the Participant’s spouse whose birth date was used in the calculation of the Joint and Survivor Annuity, even if the Participant is married to a different individual at the time of the Participant’s death.

(b) Annuity.

(i) Death of Participant during Ten (10) Year Certain Period. If the Participant dies before the first benefit payment or during the ten (10) year certain period following the Benefit Commencement Date, the benefit amount shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary for the balance of the ten (10) year certain period.

(ii) Cessation of Benefits. No further benefits are payable after the later of (a) the death of the Participant or (b) the end of the ten (10) year certain period.

6.6 Administrative Delay. Death benefits shall commence as of the date set forth in this Article VI or the first day of the month as soon as administratively practicable thereafter but in any event within ninety (90) days of the Participant’s death. The aggregate amount of any such delayed payments, without interest on such delayed payments, shall be paid to the Beneficiary on such delayed commencement date.

6.7 Beneficiary Designation for Ten (10) Year Certain Period . A Beneficiary designation shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrative Committee of a properly executed form which the Administrative Committee has approved for that purpose, and shall remain in force until revoked or changed by the Participant. The Participant may, from time to time, revoke or change any designation of Beneficiary by filing another approved Beneficiary designation form with the Administrative Committee.

(a) Upon entering the Plan, each Participant shall file with the Administrative Committee a designation of one or more Beneficiaries to whom the death benefit provided by Sections 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4 shall be payable. Any Beneficiary designation by a married Participant who designates any person or entity other than the Participant’s spouse shall be ineffective unless the Participant's spouse has indicated consent by completing and signing the applicable spousal consent section of the approved beneficiary designation form.

(b) Upon Retirement and prior to commencement of benefits under Article IV, the Participant shall designate one or more Beneficiaries to receive the remaining period certain payments, which designation shall be made and modified in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.7. If the Participant does not designate one or more Beneficiaries to receive the remaining period certain payments, the Beneficiaries designated by the Participant upon entering the Plan shall be the Participant’s Beneficiaries for purposes of the remaining period certain payments. A spouse of a Participant may not change the Beneficiaries designated by the Participant, including the Beneficiaries to whom the remaining period certain payments may be paid. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 6.7(b), in the case of a Joint and Survivor Annuity, a Beneficiary designation shall have no effect unless the Participant and the Participant’s spouse both die during the ten (10) year certain period and (b) if the Participant dies during the ten (10) year certain period and the Beneficiaries designated by the Participant have predeceased the Participant or otherwise ceased to exist, the Participant’s surviving spouse who is receiving the survivor benefit under the Joint and Survivor Annuity may designate the Beneficiaries to receive any remaining guaranteed payments if the spouse should die during the ten (10) year certain period.

(c) If there is no valid Beneficiary designation on file with the Administrative Committee at the time of the Participant’s death, or if all of the Beneficiaries designated in the last Beneficiary designation have predeceased the Participant or, in the case of an entity, otherwise ceased to exist, the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s spouse, if the spouse survives the Participant, or otherwise the Participant’s estate. A Beneficiary who is an individual shall be deemed to have predeceased the Participant if the Beneficiary dies within thirty (30) days of the date of the Participant’s death. If any Beneficiary survives the Participant but dies or, in the case of an entity, otherwise ceases to exist, before receiving all payments due under this Article VI, the balance of the payments that would have been paid to that Beneficiary shall, unless the Participant’s designation provides otherwise, be distributed to the deceased individual Beneficiary’s estate or, in the case of an entity, to the Participant’s spouse, if the spouse survives the Participant, or otherwise to the Participant’s estate.

Article VII
PROVISIONS RELATING TO ALL BENEFITS

7.1 Effect of this Article. The provisions of this Article shall control over all other provisions of the Plan (including the Program).

7.2 Termination of Employment. A Participant’s termination of employment for any reason prior to the Participant’s vesting under Article III shall cause the Participant and all his Beneficiaries to forfeit all interests in and under this Plan, other than any benefit payable to such Participant’s Beneficiaries under Article VI.

7.3 Forfeiture for Cause.

(a) Forfeiture on Account of Discharge. If the Administrative Committee finds, after full consideration of the facts presented on behalf of Sysco or a Subsidiary and a former Participant, that the Participant was discharged by Sysco or a Subsidiary for: (i) fraud, (ii) embezzlement, (iii) theft, (iv) commission of a felony, (v) proven dishonesty in the course of his employment by Sysco or a Subsidiary which damaged Sysco or a Subsidiary, or (vi) disclosing trade secrets of Sysco or a Subsidiary ((i) through (vi) individually and collectively referred to as a “For Cause Event”), the entire Vested Accrued Benefit of the Participant and/or his Beneficiaries shall be forfeited.

(b) Forfeiture after Commencement of Benefits. If the Administrative Committee finds, after full consideration of the facts presented on behalf of Sysco or a Subsidiary and the former Participant, that a former Participant who has begun receiving benefits under this Plan engaged in a For Cause Event during his employment with Sysco or a Subsidiary (even though the Participant was not discharged from Sysco or the Subsidiary for such a For Cause Event), the former Participant’s and/or Beneficiaries remaining benefit payments under the Plan (including the Program) shall be forfeited.

(c) Administrative Committee Discretion. The decision of the Administrative Committee as to the existence of a For Cause Event shall be final. No decision of the Administrative Committee shall affect the finality of the discharge of the Participant by Sysco or the Subsidiary in any manner.

(d) Special Rule for Change of Control. Notwithstanding the above, the forfeitures created by Sections 7.3(a) and 7.3(b) above shall not apply to a Participant or former Participant who: (i) is discharged during the Plan Year in which a Change of Control occurs, or during the next three (3) succeeding Plan Years following the Plan Year in which a Change of Controls occurs (the “Change of Control Period”) or (ii) during the Change of Control Period is determined by the Administrative Committee to have engaged in a For Cause Event, unless a court reviewing the Administrative Committee’s findings agrees with the Administrative Committee’s determination to apply the forfeiture.

7.4 Forfeiture for Competition If, at the time a distribution is being made or is to be made to a Participant, the Administrative Committee finds, after full consideration of the facts presented on behalf of Sysco or a Subsidiary and the Participant, that the Participant has engaged in any of the conduct set forth in this Section 7.4, the entire benefit remaining to be paid to the Participant and/or his Beneficiaries shall be forfeited, even though it may have been previously vested under any portion of this Plan; provided, however, that this Section 7.4 shall not apply to any Participant whose termination of employment from Sysco or a Subsidiary occurs during a Change of Control Period. A forfeiture shall occur if, at any time after his termination of employment from Sysco or a Subsidiary and while any remaining benefit is to be paid to the Participant and/or his Beneficiaries under this Plan, and without written consent of Sysco’s Chief Executive Officer or General Counsel, the Participant:

(a) either directly or indirectly owns, operates, manages, controls, or participates in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or is employed by, or is paid as a consultant or other independent contractor by, a business which competes with any aspect of the business of Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed (as the scope of Sysco’s or such Subsidiary’s business is defined as of the date of Participant’s termination of employment) in a trade area served by Sysco or the Subsidiary and in which the Participant directly or indirectly represented Sysco or the Subsidiary while employed by it; and the Participant continues to be so engaged ten (10) days after written notice has been given to him by or on behalf of Sysco or the Subsidiary;

(b) either directly or indirectly owns, operates, manages, controls, or participates in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or is employed by, or is paid as a consultant or other independent contractor by, a customer or supplier of Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed and with whom the Participant dealt, either directly or indirectly through the supervision of others, on behalf of Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed; and the Participant continues to be so engaged ten (10) days after written notice has been given to him by or on behalf of Sysco or the Subsidiary;

(c) on behalf of a business which competes with Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed, directly or indirectly markets, solicits or sells to any actual or prospective customer of Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed and with whom the Participant dealt, either directly or indirectly through the supervision of others, on behalf of Sysco or the Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed;

(d) on behalf of a business which competes with Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed, directly or indirectly markets to, solicits or buys from any supplier of Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed and with whom the Participant dealt, either directly or indirectly through the supervision of others, on behalf of Sysco or the Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed;

(e) on behalf of a business which competes with Sysco or a Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed, directly or indirectly solicits, offers employment to, hires or otherwise enters into a consulting relationship with any employee of Sysco or any Subsidiary;

(f) either (i) fails to return to Sysco or the Subsidiary by which he was formerly employed, within ten (10) days of any request issued to the Participant, any and all trade secrets or confidential information or any portion thereof and all materials relating thereto in his possession, or (ii) fails to hold in confidence or reproduces, distributes, transmits, reverse engineers, decompiles, disassembles, or transfers, directly or indirectly, in any form, by any means, or for any purpose, any Sysco or Subsidiary trade secrets or confidential information or any portion thereof or any materials relating thereto; or

(g) makes any disparaging comments or accusations detrimental to the reputation, business, or business relationships of Sysco (as reasonably determined by Sysco or a Subsidiary), and the Participant fails to retract such comments or accusations within sixty (60) days after written notice demanding such retraction has been provided to him by or on behalf of Sysco or the Subsidiary.

7.5 Restrictions on any Portion of Total Payments Determined to be Excess Parachute Payments. If any payment or benefit received or to be received by a Participant in connection with a “change of control” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder) of Sysco would either (i) result in such payment or benefit not being deductible, whether in whole or in part, by Sysco or any Subsidiary, as a result of Section 280G of the Code, and/or (ii) result in the Participant being subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, then the benefits payable under the Executive Retirement Plans shall be reduced until no portion of the Total Payments is not deductible as a result of Section 280G of the Code (and/or not subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code) or the benefits payable under the Executive Retirement Plans have been reduced to zero. If a Participant is entitled to a benefit under more than one (1) of the Executive Retirement Plans, then the reduction shall be applied in the order determined by the Administrative Committee in its sole discretion. The reduction in benefits payable under this Plan, if any, shall be determined by reducing the Vested Percentage of the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit. In determining the amount of the reduction, if any, under this Plan: (a) no portion of the Total Payments which the Participant has waived in writing prior to the date of the payment of benefits under this Plan shall be taken into account, (b) no portion of the Total Payments which tax counsel, selected by Sysco’s independent auditors and reasonably acceptable to the Participant (“Tax Counsel”), determines not to constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code shall be taken into account (including, without limitation, amounts not treated as a “parachute payment” as a result of the application of Section 280G(b)(4)(A)), (c) no portion of the Total Payments which Tax Counsel, determines to be reasonable compensation for services rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code will be treated as an “excess parachute payment” in the manner provided by Section 280G(b)(4)(B), and (d) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by Sysco’s independent auditors in accordance with Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, the Compensation Committee, may, within its sole discretion and pursuant to an agreement approved by the Compensation Committee, waive application of this Section 7.5, when it determines that specific situations warrant such action.

7.6 Claims Procedure Any person who believes that he or she is being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled under this Plan (including the Program) (referred to hereinafter as a “Claimant”) must file a written request for such benefit with the Administrative Committee; provided, however, that any claim involving entitlement to, the amount of or the method or timing of payment of a benefit affected by a Change of Control shall be governed by Section 7.6(e). Such written request must set forth the Claimant’s claim and must be addressed to the Administrative Committee at the Company’s principal office.

(a) Initial Claims Decision. The Administrative Committee shall generally provide written notice to the Claimant of its decision within ninety (90) days after the claim is filed with the Administrative Committee; provided, however, that the Administrative Committee may have up to an additional ninety (90) days to decide the claim, if the Administrative Committee determines that special circumstances require an extension of time to decide the claim, and the Administrative Committee advises the Claimant in writing of the need for an extension (including an explanation of the special circumstances requiring the extension) and the date on which it expects to decide the claim.

(b) Appeals. A Claimant may appeal the Administrative Committee’s decision by submitting a written request for review to the Administrative Committee within sixty (60) days after the earlier of receiving the denial notice or after expiration of the initial review period. Such written request must be addressed to the Administrative Committee at the Company’s principal office. In connection with such request, the Claimant (and his or her authorized representative, if any) may review any pertinent documents upon which the denial was based and may submit issues and comments in writing for consideration by the Administrative Committee. If the Claimant’s request for review is not received within the earlier of sixty (60) days after receipt of the denial or after expiration of the initial review period, the denial shall be final, and the Claimant shall be barred and estopped from challenging the Administrative Committee’s determination.

(c) Decision Following Appeal. The Administrative Committee shall generally make its decision on the Claimant’s appeal in writing within sixty (60) days following its receipt of the Claimant’s request for appeal; provided, however, that the Administrative Committee may have up to an additional sixty (60) days to decide the claim, if the Administrative Committee determines that special circumstances require an extension of time to decide the claim and the Administrative Committee advises the Claimant in writing of the need for an extension (including an explanation of the special circumstances requiring the extension) and the date on which it expects to decide the claim. The Administrative Committee shall notify the Claimant of its decision on the Claimant’s appeal in writing, regardless of whether the decision is adverse.

(d) Decisions Final; Procedures Mandatory. A decision on appeal by the Administrative Committee shall be binding and conclusive upon all persons, and completion of the claims procedures described in this Section 7.6 shall be a mandatory precondition to commencement of any court proceeding brought in connection with this Plan (including the Program) by a person claiming rights under this Plan (including the Program) or by another person claiming rights through such a person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Administrative

Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive the procedures described in Sections 7.6(a) through 7.6(c) as a mandatory precondition to such an action.

7.7 Compensation Committee Decisions. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan (including the Program) to the contrary, any determination made or to be made with respect to the benefits or rights of an Executive Officer under the Plan (including the Program) shall not be made by the Administrative Committee but shall instead be made by the Compensation Committee, and each provision of the Plan (including the Program) otherwise governing such a determination shall be interpreted and construed to substitute the Compensation Committee for the Administrative Committee in such provision.

ARTICLE VIII

(ii) any question it deems advisable to determine in order to promote the uniform administration of this Plan (including the Program) for the benefit of all parties at interest; and

8.4 Committee Discretion The Administrative Committee (or, as applicable, the Compensation Committee), in exercising any power or authority granted under this Plan (including the Program), or in making any determination under this Plan (including the Program), shall perform or refrain from performing those acts pursuant to such authority using its sole discretion and judgment. By way of amplification, and without limiting the foregoing, the Company specifically intends that the Administrative Committee (or, as applicable, the Compensation Committee) have the greatest possible discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of this Plan (including the Program) and to determine all questions concerning eligibility, participation and benefits.

The Administrative Committee’s (or, as applicable, the Compensation Committee’s) decisions shall never be subject to de novo review. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Committee’s (or, as applicable, the Compensation Committee’s) decisions, refraining to act or acting is to be subject to judicial review for those incidents occurring during the Change of Control Period.

8.5 Reimbursement of Expenses. The Administrative Committee shall serve without compensation for their services but shall be reimbursed by Sysco for all expenses properly and actually incurred in the performance of their duties under this Plan (including the Program).

8.6 Indemnification.

Article IX
ADOPTION BY SUBSIDIARIES

9.1 Procedure for and Status after Adoption. Any Subsidiary may, with the approval of the Administrative Committee, adopt this Plan prior to June 29, 2013 by appropriate action of its board of directors. The terms of this Plan shall apply separately to each Subsidiary adopting this Plan and its Participants in the same manner as is expressly provided for Sysco and its Participants except that the powers of the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee and the Administrative Committee under this Plan (including the Program) shall be exercised by the Board of Directors of Sysco, Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Sysco or the Administrative Committee of Sysco, as applicable. Sysco and each Subsidiary adopting this Plan shall bear the cost of providing Plan benefits for its own Participants. Sysco shall initially pay the costs of the Plan each Plan Year. However, each adopting Subsidiary shall then be billed back for the actuarially determined costs pertaining to it in accordance with the appropriate Financial Accounting Standards Board pronouncements. It is intended that the obligation of Sysco and each Subsidiary with respect to its Participants shall be the sole obligation of the Company that is employing the Participant and shall not bind any other Company.

9.2 Termination of Participation by Adopting Subsidiary. Any Subsidiary adopting this Plan may, by appropriate action of its board of directors, terminate its participation in this Plan. The Administrative Committee may, in its discretion, also terminate a Subsidiary’s participation in this Plan at any time. The termination of the participation in this Plan by a Subsidiary shall not, however, affect the rights of any Participant who is working or has worked for the Subsidiary as to benefits previously accrued by the Participant under this Plan without his consent.

Article X
AMENDMENT AND/OR TERMINATION

10.1 Amendment or Termination of the Plan. The Compensation Committee may amend or terminate this Plan (including the Program) at any time by an instrument in writing without the consent of any adopting Company.

10.2 No Retroactive Effect on Awarded Benefits

(a) General Rule. Absent a Participant’s prior consent, no amendment shall affect the rights of such Participant to his Vested Accrued Benefit as of the date of such amendment (“Minimum Vested Accrued Benefit”) or shall change such Participant’s rights under any provision relating to a Change of Control after a Change of Control has occurred. On and after the effective date of such amendment, for purposes of vesting under Article III, the Early Payment Criteria under Section 4.1(l), and the Early Retirement Factor under Section 4.1(m), a Participant shall continue to be awarded (i) Vesting Service and age credit until such Participant’s termination of employment with Sysco and its Subsidiaries, and (ii) years of MIP Participation until such Participant is no longer a MIP participant.

(b) Benefits on or after the Amendment. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.2, the Compensation Committee retains the right at any time (1) to change in any manner or to discontinue the death benefit provided in Article VI, except for a period of four (4) years after a Change of Control for those persons who at that time were covered by the death benefit, and (2) to change in any manner the benefit under Article IV, provided such benefit is not less than the minimum benefit under Section 10.2(a).

10.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of the Plan, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) With respect to benefits that become payable as a result of a distribution event on or after the effective date of the Plan’s termination, a Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit shall be determined as provided under Article IV.

(b) The Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, authorize distributions to Participants as a result of the Plan’s termination, provided that:

(i) All deferred compensation arrangements sponsored by the Company that would be aggregated with this Plan (which may include the Program) under Section 1.409A-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations (or any corresponding provision of succeeding law) if the Participant participated in such arrangements are terminated;

(ii) No distributions other than distributions that would be payable under the terms of this Plan if the termination had not occurred are made within twelve (12) months of the termination of this Plan;

(iii) All distributions of benefits to be provided hereunder are paid within twenty-four (24) months of the termination of this Plan; and

(iv) The Company does not adopt a new deferred compensation arrangement at any time within three (3) years following the date of the termination of the Plan that would be aggregated with this Plan under Section 1.409A-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations (or any corresponding provision of succeeding law) if the Participant participated in this Plan and the new arrangement.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.3(a) and 10.3(b), on and after the effective date of the Plan’s termination, (i) the Plan shall continue to be administered as it was prior to the Plan’s termination, (ii) all retirement benefits accrued prior to the date of termination shall be payable only under the conditions, at the time, and in the form then provided in this Plan, (iii) no Participant shall be entitled to Plan benefits solely as a result of the Plan’s termination in accordance with the provisions of this Article X, and (iv) the forfeiture provisions of Sections 7.3 and 7.4, and the restrictions set forth in Section 7.5 shall continue in effect.

Article XI
FUNDING

11.1 Payments Under This Plan are the Obligation of the Company. The Company last employing a Participant shall pay the benefits due the Participant under this Plan (including the Program); however, should it fail to do so when a benefit is due, then, except as provided in Section 11.5, the benefit shall be paid by the Trust. In any event, if the Trust fails to pay for any reason, the Company still remains liable for the payment of all benefits provided by this Plan (including the Program).

11.2 Plan May Be Funded Through the Trust. It is specifically recognized by both the Company and the Participants that the Company may, but is not required to, purchase life insurance so as to accumulate assets to fund the obligations of the Company under this Plan (including the Program), and that the Company may, but is not required to, contribute any policy or policies it may purchase and any amounts or other assets it finds desirable to the Trust. However, under all circumstances, the Participants shall have no rights to any of those policies or any other assets contributed to the Trust; and, likewise, under all circumstances, the rights of the Participants to the assets held in the Trust shall be no greater than the rights expressed in this Plan (including the Program) and the Trust Agreement. Nothing contained in the Trust Agreement shall constitute a guarantee by any Company that assets of the Company transferred to the Trust shall be sufficient to pay any benefits under this Plan (including the Program) or would place the Participant in a secured position ahead of general creditors should the Company become insolvent or bankrupt. The Trust Agreement must specify that Participants in this Plan (including the Program) are only unsecured general creditors of the Company in relation to their benefits under this Plan (including the Program).

11.3 Reversion of Excess Assets. Sysco may, at any time, request the actuary for the Plan to determine the present value of the Vested Accrued Benefit assuming the Vested Accrued Benefit to be fully vested (whether it is or not), as of the end of this Plan (including the Program) Year coincident with or last preceding the request, of all Participants and Beneficiaries of deceased Participants for which all Companies are or will be obligated to make payments under this Plan (including the Program). For periods prior to a Change of Control, if the fair market value of the assets held in the Trust, as determined by the Trustee as of that same date, exceeds the total of the Vested Accrued Benefits of all Participants and Beneficiaries under this Plan (including the Program), Sysco may direct the Trustee to return to Sysco the assets which are in excess of the Vested Accrued Benefits under this Plan (including the Program). For periods following a Change of Control, if the fair market value of the assets held in the Trust, as determined by the Trustee as of that same date, exceeds the total of the Vested Accrued Benefits of all Participants and Beneficiaries under this Plan (including the Program) by 10%, Sysco may direct the Trustee to return to Sysco the assets which are in excess of 110% of the Vested Accrued Benefits under this Plan (including the Program). For this purpose, the present value of the Vested Accrued Benefits under this Plan (including the Program) shall be calculated using the data for the preceding Plan Year brought forward using the assumptions used to determine the actuarially determined costs according to the appropriate Financial Accounting Standards Board pronouncements. If there has been a Change of Control, to determine excess assets, all contributions made prior to the Change of

Control shall be subtracted from the fair market value of the assets held in the Trust as of the determination date but before the determination is made.

11.4 Participants Must Rely Only on General Credit of the Company. The Company and the Participants recognize that this Plan (including the Program) is only a general corporate commitment, and that each Participant is merely an unsecured general creditor of the Company with respect to any of the Company’s obligations under this Plan (including the Program).

11.5 Funding of Benefits for Participants Subject to Canadian Income Tax Laws is Prohibited. No Company employing a Participant whose income is subject to the Canadian tax laws shall be permitted to fund its obligation to that person through any rabbi trust, fund, sinking fund, or other financial vehicle even though under applicable law the assets held to fund the obligation are still subject to the general creditors of the Company.

Article XII
MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Responsibility for Distributions and Withholding of Taxes. The Administrative Committee shall furnish information, to the Company last employing the Participant, concerning the amount and form of distribution to any Participant entitled to a distribution so that the Company may make or cause the Rabbi Trust to make the distribution required. The Administrative Committee shall also calculate the deductions from the amount of the benefit paid under this Plan (including the Program) for any taxes required to be withheld by federal, state, local, or foreign government and shall cause them to be withheld.

12.2 Limitation of Rights. Nothing in this Plan (including the Program) shall be construed:

(a) to give a Participant any right with respect to any benefit except in accordance with the terms of this Plan (including the Program);

(b) to limit in any way the right of Sysco or a Subsidiary to terminate a Participant’s employment;

(c) to evidence any agreement or understanding, expressed or implied, that Sysco or a Subsidiary shall employ a Participant in any particular position or for any particular remuneration; or

Should a Participant become incompetent or should a Participant designate a Beneficiary who is a minor or incompetent, the Administrative Committee is authorized to pay the funds due to the parent of the minor or to the guardian of the minor or incompetent or directly to the minor or to apply those funds for the benefit of the minor or incompetent in any manner the Administrative Committee determines in its sole discretion.

12.5 Nonalienation of Benefits. No right or benefit provided under this Plan (including the Program) is subject to transfer, anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge by the Participant, except upon his death to a named Beneficiary as provided in this Plan (including the Program). If any Participant or any Beneficiary becomes bankrupt or attempts to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any right or benefit under this Plan (including the Program), that right or benefit shall, in the discretion of the Administrative Committee, be forfeited. In that event, the Administrative Committee may have the Company hold or apply the right or benefit or any part of it to the benefit of the Participant or Beneficiary, his or her spouse, children or other

dependents or any of them in any manner and in any proportion the Administrative Committee believes to be proper in its sole and absolute discretion, but is not required to do so.

12.6 Reliance upon Information The Administrative Committee shall not be liable for any decision or action taken in good faith in connection with the administration of this Plan (including the Program). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any decision or action taken by the Administrative Committee when it relies upon information supplied it by any officer of the Company, the Company’s legal counsel, the Company’s actuary, the Company’s independent accountants or other advisors in connection with the administration of this Plan (including the Program) shall be deemed to have been taken in good faith.

12.7 Amendment Applicable to Active Participants Only Unless it Provides Otherwise. No benefit which has accrued to any Participant who has died, retired, become disabled or separated or who is a Frozen Participant prior to the execution of an amendment shall be changed in amount or subject to any adjustment provided in that amendment unless the amendment specifically provides that it shall apply to those persons and it does not have the effect of reducing those persons Vested Accrued Benefit as then fixed without their consent.

12.8 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Plan (including the Program) is held to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, the rest of this Plan (including the Program) shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated.

12.9 Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Committee or a Participant shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by U.S. mail to the principal office of the Company or to the residential mailing address of the Participant. Notice shall be deemed to be given as of the date of hand delivery or if delivery is by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark.

12.10 Gender and Number If the context requires it, words of one gender when used in this Plan (including the Program) shall include the other genders, and words used in the singular or plural shall include the other.

12.11 Governing Law The Plan (including the Program) shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware except to the extent such laws are pre-empted by federal law. The Participant and the Company agree that subject to the provisions of Sections 7.6(a) through 7.6(c), the sole and exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute under this Plan (including the Program) shall lie in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, and the parties hereby waive any jurisdictional or venue-related defense to litigating at this forum.

12.12 Effective Date. The Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan was originally effective as of July 3, 1988. This Eleventh Amended and Restated Sysco Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan is effective as of June 29, 2012.

12.13 Compliance with Section 409A. This Plan (including the Program) is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code in both form and operation, and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted, to the extent possible, in a manner that complies with Section 409A.

(E) for which Sysco Service was forfeited under the Pension Plan following a period of severance.

(c) Eligible Earnings. “Eligible Earnings” means the aggregate of the excess of a Participant’s Compensation for each calendar year during the period such Participant was accruing benefits under this Program over the Annual Compensation Limit with respect to each such calendar year; provided, however, such Annual Compensation Limit shall be ignored for periods during which the Participant did not accrue benefits under the Pension Plan and provided, further, the Annual Compensation Limit shall be prorated for any short plan year under the Pension Plan.

(d) Benefit Commencement Date. “Benefit Commencement Date” means the first day of the month coinciding with or next following the date determined as follows: (i) if the Participant has at least ten (10)

If a Participant’s Benefit Commencement Date is other than the first day of the month coinciding with or next following the Participant’s actual Retirement or Vested Separation date such Participant’s Retirement Benefit shall be referred to herein as a “Deferred Retirement Benefit.”

(e) Normal Retirement Date. “Normal Retirement Date” means the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Participant’s sixty-fifth (65th) birthday or actual Retirement date, whichever is later.

(f) Retirement. “Retirement” means the Participant’s Separation from Service from Sysco or its Subsidiaries other than for death, provided that at the time of such Separation from Service, the Participant is (i) at least age fifty-five (55) and has at least ten (10) years of Sysco Service; or (ii) at least age sixty-five (65).

4.4Retirement Benefit. Subject to Sections 4.6 and 4.7, a Participant shall be entitled to his Vested Accrued Benefit commencing on his Benefit Commencement Date; provided, however, the Vested Accrued Benefit will be reduced by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first sixty (60) calendar months and 5/18ths of one percent (1%) for each of the next sixty (60) calendar months by which the Benefit Commencement Date precedes the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date.

4.5Form of Payment. If, at the time a Participant first became eligible to participate in the Program, the Participant was: (i) not married, the Retirement Benefit will be paid in the form of an Annuity; or (ii) married, the Retirement Benefit will be paid in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity which is Actuarially Equivalent to the Annuity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after a Participant’s Separation from Service but prior to the time the first monthly annuity payment has been made to the Participant under this Program, the Administrative Committee may change the form of payment of a Participant’s Retirement Benefit between an Annuity and a Joint and Survivor Annuity based upon the marital status of such Participant as of the date of such change, and such change shall become immediately effective; provided that such change shall become effective only if the Administrative Committee determines that the Annuity and Joint and Survivor Annuity are “actuarially equivalent life annuities” within the meaning of Section 409A.

4.6Administrative Delay. Except as required under Section 4.7, payment of the Participant’s Retirement Benefit under Section 4.4 shall begin on the Benefit Commencement Date or the first day of the month as soon as administratively practicable thereafter but in no event later than the last day of the taxable year in which the Benefit Commencement Date occurs, or if later within two and one-half (2½) months of the Benefit Commencement Date, unless an exception under Section 409A applies. The aggregate amount of any delayed payments, without interest, shall be paid to the Participant on such delayed commencement date.

4.7Delay of Payments under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the distribution of a Retirement Benefit under Section 4.4 to a Participant who is a Specified

Employee shall not commence earlier than the date that is six (6) months after the date of such Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation if such earlier commencement would result in the imposition of the excise tax under Section 409A. If distributions to a Participant are so delayed, such distributions shall commence at the later of (a) the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date that is six (6) months after the Participant’s Retirement or Vested Separation; or (b) the Participant’s Benefit Commencement Date. If a Participant’s distributions are delayed by reason of clause (a), above, the aggregate amount of any such delayed payments, together with interest on such delayed payments (calculated using the interest rate used for determining Actuarial Equivalence), shall be paid to the Participant on such delayed commencement date.

ARTICLE V

FROZEN PARTICIPATION

5.1In General. This Article V provides special rules that apply to a Participant who is a Frozen Participant. To the extent that this Article V or other provisions of this Program do not otherwise specify, such Participant shall be treated as any other Participant to the extent necessary to implement this Article V.

(a) Sysco Service and Age Credit. During the period of time during which his participation is frozen, a Frozen Participant shall continue to be awarded Sysco Service and age credit.

(b) Eligible Earnings. A Participant’s Compensation during the period that such Participant was a Frozen Participant shall not be included in the calculation of such Participant’s Eligible Earnings.

ARTICLE VI

DEATH BENEFIT

6.1Definitions. The following definitions are used in this Article VI:

(a) Death Benefit Eligible Earnings. “Death Benefit Eligible Earnings” for a Plan Year shall mean the sum of (i) the annual rate of the Participant’s base salary as of his last day of employment during the applicable Plan Year, and (ii) the cash bonus earned by the Participant under the MIP, other than MIP Additional Bonuses (as defined in the MIP), with respect to such Plan Year, without regard to whether or not such MIP bonus was deferred under the EDCP.

(b) Retired Participant. “Retired Participant” means a Participant (i) whose Benefit Commencement Date has occurred but who has not yet received his first benefit payment hereunder or (ii) who is receiving benefit payments hereunder.

(c) Three-Year Final Average Compensation. “Three-Year Final Average Compensation” means the annual average of the Participant’s Death Benefit Eligible Earnings for the three (3) Plan Years (excluding those Plan Years in which the Participant does not have any Death Benefit Eligible Earnings) ending immediately before June 30, 2013. Unless otherwise provided herein, the Plan Year in which the Participant was originally hired shall be disregarded if he was hired after the first business day of such Plan Year. Similarly, the Plan Year in which death occurs shall be disregarded if death occurs before the last business day of such Plan Year. If the Participant does not have three (3) Plan Years of Death Benefit Eligible Earnings, the Participant’s Three-Year Final Average Compensation shall be based on the annual average of Death Benefit Eligible Earnings for the available Plan Years ending immediately before June 30, 2013. If all Plan Years have been excluded (i.e. there are no “available” Plan Years), Three-Year Final Average Compensation shall mean the Participant’s Death Benefit Eligible Earnings in the Plan Year ending June 29, 2013.

(d) Vested Separated Participant. “Vested Separated Participant” means a Participant who is entitled to a Deferred Retirement Benefit and whose Benefit Commencement Date has not occurred.

6.2Death of an Active Participant. If an Active Participant dies while in the employ of Sysco or a Subsidiary, such Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary shall be entitled to a monthly annuity payable for life with a ten (10) year certain period commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Participant’s death. Such monthly annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the greater of the Actuarially Equivalent single-sum value of: (i) an annual payment equal to 25% of the Participant’s Three-Year Final Average Compensation payable for ten (10) years certain, or (ii) the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit as of his date of death, reduced for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit precedes the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first sixty (60) calendar months, 5/18ths of one percent (1%) for each of the next sixty (60) calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence).

6.3Death of Frozen Participant. If a Frozen Participant dies while in the employ of Sysco or a Subsidiary, the Frozen Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary shall be entitled to a monthly annuity payable for life with a ten (10) year certain period commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Frozen Participant’s death. Such monthly annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the single sum value of the survivor’s benefit that would have been payable to the Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary if the Participant had begun receiving a hypothetical retirement benefit on his date of death. The amount of such hypothetical retirement benefit shall equal the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit as of his date of death, reduced, for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit precedes the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first sixty (60) calendar months, 5/18ths of one percent (1%) for each of the next sixty (60) calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence), adjusted, as applicable, to take into account the form of payment of such Participant’s Retirement Benefit under Section 4.5 of this Program. For purposes of determining the amount of the survivor’s benefit under this Section 6.3, if a Participant’s Retirement Benefit was to be paid in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity, and the Participant

designated a Beneficiary other than his spouse, his Beneficiary shall be substituted for the Participant’s “spouse” for purposes of conversion to a Joint and Survivor Annuity.

6.4Death of Vested Separated Participant. Upon the death of a Vested Separated Participant such Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary shall be entitled to a monthly annuity payable for life with a ten (10) year certain period commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the Participant’s death. Such monthly annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the single sum value of the survivor’s benefit that would have been payable to the Participant’s spouse or other Beneficiary if the Participant had begun receiving a hypothetical retirement benefit on his date of death. The amount of such hypothetical retirement benefit shall equal the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit as of his Retirement or Vested Separation date, reduced, for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit precedes the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first sixty (60) calendar months, 5/18ths of one percent (1%) for each of the next sixty (60) calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence), adjusted, as applicable, to take into account the form of payment of such Participant’s Retirement Benefit under Section 4.5 of this Program. For purposes of determining the amount of the survivor’s benefit under this Section 6.4, if a Participant’s Retirement Benefit was to be paid in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity, and the Participant designated a Beneficiary other than his spouse, his Beneficiary shall be substituted for the Participant’s “spouse” for purposes of conversion to a Joint and Survivor Annuity.

6.5Death of Retired Participant before or after Commencement of Benefits. If a Retired Participant (a) dies before benefit payments begin or (b) dies after benefit payments begin, any death benefit that may be payable hereunder is a function of the form of payment applicable to such Retired Participant (“Joint and Survivor Annuity” or “Annuity” as provided under Section 4.5 of this Program), as described below:

(a) Joint and Survivor Annuity.

(i) Death of Participant or Spouse during Ten (10) Year Certain Period. If either the Participant or his spouse (but not both) dies before the first benefit payment or during the ten (10) year certain period following the Benefit Commencement Date, the benefit amount payable during their joint lives shall be paid to the survivor for the balance of the ten (10) year certain period and then two-thirds (2/3rds) of that amount shall be paid to the survivor for life.

(iii) Cessation of Benefits. No further benefits are payable after the later of (A) the deaths of the Participant and his spouse or (B) the end of the ten (10) year certain period.

(b) Annuity.

(ii) Cessation of Benefits. No further benefits are payable after the later of (a) the death of the Participant or (b) the end of the ten (10) year certain period.

6.6Administrative Delay. Death benefits shall commence as of the date set forth in this Article VI or the first day of the month as soon as administratively practicable thereafter but in any event within ninety (90) days of the Participant’s death. The aggregate amount of any such delayed payments, without interest on such delayed payments, shall be paid to the Beneficiary on such delayed commencement date.

6.7Beneficiary Designation for Ten (10) Year Certain Period. A Beneficiary designation shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrative Committee of a properly executed form which the Administrative Committee has approved for that purpose, and shall remain in force until revoked or changed by the Participant. The Participant may, prior to the commencement of benefits under the Plan, from time to time, revoke or change any designation of Beneficiary by filing another approved Beneficiary designation form with the Administrative Committee.

(a) Upon entering the Plan, each Participant shall file with the Administrative Committee a designation of one or more Beneficiaries to whom the death benefit provided by Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5 of this Program shall be payable. Any Beneficiary designation by a married Participant who designates any person or entity other than the Participant’s spouse shall be ineffective unless the Participant’s spouse has indicated consent by completing and signing the applicable spousal consent section of the approved Beneficiary designation form.

(b) Upon Retirement or Vested Separation and prior to commencement of benefits under Article IV of this Program, the Participant shall designate one or more Beneficiaries to receive the remaining period certain payments, which designation shall be made and modified in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.8. If the Participant does not designate one or more Beneficiaries to receive the remaining period certain payments, the Beneficiaries designated by the Participant upon entering the Plan shall be the Participant’s Beneficiaries for purposes of the remaining period certain payments. A spouse of a Participant may not change the Beneficiaries designated by the Participant, including the Beneficiaries to whom the remaining period certain payments may be paid. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 6.8(b), in the case of a Joint and Survivor Annuity, a Beneficiary designation shall have no effect unless (i) the Participant and the Participant’s spouse both die during the ten (10) year certain period and (ii) if the Participant dies during the ten (10) year certain period and the Beneficiaries designated by the Participant have predeceased the Participant or, in the case of an entity, otherwise ceased to exist, the Participant’s surviving spouse who is receiving the survivor benefit under the Joint and Survivor Annuity may designate the Beneficiaries to receive any remaining guaranteed payments if the spouse should die during the ten (10) year certain period.

(c) If there is no valid Beneficiary designation on file with the Administrative Committee at the time of the Participant’s death, or if all of the Beneficiaries designated in the last Beneficiary designation have predeceased the Participant or, in the case of an entity, otherwise ceased to exist, the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s spouse, if the spouse survives the Participant, or otherwise the Participant’s estate. A Beneficiary who is an individual shall be deemed to have predeceased the Participant if the Beneficiary dies within thirty (30) days of the date of the Participant’s death. If any Beneficiary survives the Participant but dies or, in the case of an entity, otherwise ceases to exist, before receiving all payments due under this Article VI, the balance of the payments that would have been paid to that Beneficiary shall, unless the Participant’s Beneficiary designation provides otherwise, be distributed to the deceased individual Beneficiary’s estate or, in the case of an entity, to the Participant’s spouse, if the spouse survives the Participant, or otherwise to the Participant’s estate.

ARTICLE VII

PROVISIONS RELATING TO ALL BENEFITS

7.1Effect of this Article. The provisions of this Article shall control over all other provisions of the Plan (including this Program).

7.2Termination of Employment. A Participant’s termination of employment for any reason prior to the Participant’s vesting under Article III of this Program shall cause the Participant and all his Beneficiaries to forfeit all interests in and under this Program, other than any death benefit payable to such Participant’s Beneficiaries under Article VI of this Program.

7.3Forfeiture for Cause.

(b) Forfeiture after Commencement of Benefits. If the Administrative Committee finds, after full consideration of the facts presented on behalf of Sysco or a Subsidiary and the former Participant, that a former Participant who has begun receiving benefits under the Plan (including this Program) engaged in a For Cause Event during his employment with Sysco or a Subsidiary (even though the Participant was not discharged from Sysco or the Subsidiary for such a For Cause Event), the former Participant’s and/or Beneficiaries’ remaining benefit payments under the Plan (including this Program) shall be forfeited.

7.4Forfeiture for Competition. If, at the time a distribution is being made or is to be made to a Participant, the Administrative Committee finds, after full consideration of the facts presented on behalf of Sysco or a Subsidiary and the Participant, that the Participant has engaged in any of the conduct set forth in this Section 7.4, the entire benefit remaining to be paid to the Participant and/or his Beneficiaries shall be forfeited, even though it may have been previously vested under any portion of the Plan (including this Program); provided, however, that this Section 7.4 shall not apply to any Participant whose termination of employment from Sysco or a Subsidiary occurs during a Change of Control Period. A forfeiture shall occur if, at any time after his termination of employment from Sysco or a Subsidiary and while any remaining benefit is to be paid to the Participant and/or his Beneficiaries under the Plan (including this Program), and without written consent of Sysco’s Chief Executive Officer or General Counsel, the Participant:

termination of employment) in a trade area served by Sysco or the Subsidiary and in which the Participant directly or indirectly represented Sysco or the Subsidiary while employed by it; and the Participant continues to be so engaged ten (10) days after written notice has been given to him by or on behalf of Sysco or the Subsidiary;

7.5Restrictions on any Portion of Total Payments Determined to be Excess Parachute Payments. If any payment or benefit received or to be received by a Participant in connection with a “change of control” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder) of Sysco would either (i) result in such payment or benefit not being deductible, whether in whole or in part, by Sysco or any Subsidiary, as a result of Section 280G of the Code, and/or (ii) result in the Participant being subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, then the benefits payable under the Executive Retirement Plans shall be reduced until no portion of the Total Payments is not deductible as a result of Section 280G of the Code (and/or not subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code) or the benefits payable under the Executive Retirement Plans have been reduced to zero. If a Participant is entitled to a benefit under more than one (1) of the Executive Retirement Plans, then the reduction shall be applied in the order determined by the Administrative Committee in its sole discretion. The reduction in benefits payable under this Program, if any, shall be determined by reducing the Vested Percentage of the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit. In determining the amount of the reduction, if any, under this Program: (a) no portion of the Total Payments which the Participant has waived in writing prior to the date of the payment of benefits under this Plan shall be taken into account, (b) no portion of the Total Payments which tax counsel, selected by Sysco’s independent auditors and reasonably acceptable to the Participant (“Tax Counsel”), determines not to constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code shall be taken into account (including, without limitation, amounts not treated as a “parachute payment” as a result of the application of Section 280G(b)(4)(A)), (c) no portion of the Total Payments which Tax Counsel, determines to be reasonable compensation for services rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code will be treated as an “excess

parachute payment” in the manner provided by Section 280G(b)(4)(B), and (d) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by Sysco’s independent auditors in accordance with Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, the Compensation Committee, may, within its sole discretion and pursuant to an agreement approved by the Compensation Committee, waive application of this Section 7.5, when it determines that specific situations warrant such action.

7.6Claims Procedure. Any person who believes that he or she is being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled under the Plan (including this Program) (referred to hereinafter as a “Claimant”) must file a written request for such benefit with the Administrative Committee; provided, however, that any claim involving entitlement to, the amount of or the method or timing of payment of a benefit affected by a Change of Control shall be governed by Section 8.3(d)(i) of this Program. Such written request must set forth the Claimant’s claim and must be addressed to the Administrative Committee at the Company’s principal office.

(d) Decisions Final; Procedures Mandatory. A decision on appeal by the Administrative Committee shall be binding and conclusive upon all persons, and completion of the claims procedures described in this Section 7.6 shall be a mandatory precondition to commencement of any court proceeding brought in connection with the Plan (including this Program) by a person claiming rights under the Plan (including this Program) or by another person claiming rights through such a person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Administrative Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive the procedures described in Sections 7.6(a) through 7.6(c) of this Program as a mandatory precondition to such an action.

7.7 Compensation Committee Decisions. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan (including this Program) to the contrary, any determination made with respect to the benefits or rights of an Executive Officer under this Program shall not be made by the Administrative Committee but shall instead be made by the Compensation Committee, and each provision of the Plan (including this Program) otherwise governing such a determination shall be interpreted and construed to substitute the Compensation Committee for the Administrative Committee in such provision.

Program. The Administrative Committee’s (or, as applicable, the Compensation Committee’s) decisions shall never be subject to de novo review. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Committee’s (or, as applicable, the Compensation Committee’s) decisions, refraining to act or acting is to be subject to judicial review for those incidents occurring during the Change of Control Period.

8.5Reimbursement of Expenses. The Administrative Committee shall serve without compensation for their services but shall be reimbursed by Sysco for all expenses properly and actually incurred in the performance of their duties under the Plan (including this Program).

8.6Indemnification. To the extent permitted by law, members of the Board of Directors, members of the Compensation Committee, members of the Administrative Committee, employees of the Company, and all agents and representatives of the Company shall be indemnified by the Company, and saved harmless against any claims resulting from any action or conduct relating to the administration of the Plan (including this Program), except claims arising from gross negligence, willful neglect or willful misconduct.

9.1Procedure for and Status after Adoption. Any Subsidiary may, with the approval of the Administrative Committee, adopt this Program by appropriate action of its board of directors. The terms of this Program shall apply separately to each Subsidiary adopting this Program and its Participants in the same manner as is expressly provided for by Sysco and its Participants except that the powers of the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee and the Administrative Committee under this Program shall be exercised by the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee, or the Administrative Committee, as applicable. Sysco and each Subsidiary adopting this Program shall bear the cost of providing Program benefits for its own Participants. Sysco shall initially pay the costs of the Program each Plan Year. However, each adopting Subsidiary shall then be billed back for the actuarially determined costs pertaining to it in accordance with the appropriate Financial Accounting Standards Board pronouncements. It is intended that the obligation of Sysco and each Subsidiary with respect to its Participants shall be the sole obligation of the Company that is employing the Participant and shall not bind any other Company.

9.2Termination of Participation by Adopting Subsidiary. Any Subsidiary adopting this Program may, by appropriate action of its board of directors, terminate its participation in this Program. The Administrative Committee may, in its sole discretion, also terminate a Subsidiary’s participation in this Program at any time.

ARTICLE X

10.2No Retroactive Effect on Awarded Benefits.

Absent a Participant’s prior consent, no amendment to this Program shall affect the rights of such Participant to his Vested Accrued Benefit as of the date of such amendment (“Minimum Vested Accrued Benefit”) or shall change such Participant’s rights under any provision relating to a Change of Control after a Change of Control has occurred.

(b) Determination of Minimum Vested Accrued Benefit. For purposes of calculating a Participant's Minimum Vested Accrued Benefit as of the date of an amendment to this Program:

ARTICLE XI

FUNDING

11.1Payments Under the Plan (including this Program) are the Obligation of the Company. The Company last employing a Participant shall pay the benefits due the Participant under the Plan (including this Program); however, should it fail to do so when a benefit is due, then, except as provided in Section 11.5, the benefit shall be paid by the Trust. In any event, if the Trust fails to pay for any reason, the Company still remains liable for the payment of all benefits provided by the Plan (including this Program).

11.2The Plan (including this Program) May Be Funded Through the Trust. It is specifically recognized by both the Company and the Participants that the Company may, but is not required to, purchase life insurance so as to accumulate assets to fund the obligations of the Company under the Plan (including this Program), and that the Company may, but is not required to, contribute any policy or policies it may purchase and any amounts or other assets it finds desirable to the Trust. However, under all circumstances, the Participants shall have no rights to any of those policies or other assets contributed to the Trust; and, likewise, under all circumstances, the rights of the Participants to the assets held in the Trust shall be no greater than the rights expressed in the Plan (including this Program) and the Trust Agreement. Nothing contained in the Trust Agreement shall constitute a guarantee by any Company that assets of the Company transferred to the Trust shall be sufficient to pay any benefits under the Plan (including this Program) or would place the Participant in a secured position ahead of general creditors should the Company become insolvent or bankrupt. The Trust Agreement must specify that Participants in the Plan (including this Program) are only unsecured general creditors of the Company in relation to their benefits under the Plan (including this Program).

11.3Reversion of Excess Assets. Sysco may, at any time, request the actuary for the Plan to determine the present value of the Vested Accrued Benefit as of the end of the Plan Year coincident with or last preceding the request, of all Participants and Beneficiaries of deceased Participants for which all Companies are or will be obligated to make payments under the Plan (including this Program). For periods prior to a Change of Control, if the fair market value of the assets held in the Trust, as determined by the Trustee as of that same date, exceeds the total of the Vested Accrued Benefits of all Participants and Beneficiaries under the Plan (including this Program), Sysco may direct the Trustee to return to Sysco the assets which are in excess of the Vested Accrued Benefits under the Plan (including this Program). For periods following a Change of Control, if the fair market value of the assets held in the Trust, as determined by the Trustee as of that same date, exceeds the total of the Vested Accrued Benefits of all Participants and Beneficiaries under the Plan (including this Program) by 10%, Sysco may direct the Trustee to return to Sysco the assets which are in excess of 110% of the Vested Accrued Benefits under the Plan (including this Program). For this purpose, the present value of the Vested Accrued Benefits under the Plan (including this Program) shall be calculated using the data for the preceding Plan Year brought forward using the assumptions used to determine the actuarially determined costs according to the appropriate Financial Accounting Standards Board pronouncements. If there has been a Change of Control, to determine excess assets, all contributions made prior to the Change of Control shall be subtracted from the fair market value of the assets held in the Trust as of the determination date but before the determination is made.

11.4 Participants Must Rely Only on General Credit of the Company. The Company and the Participants recognize that the Plan (including this Program) is only a general corporate commitment, and that each Participant is merely an unsecured general creditor of the Company with respect to any of the Company’s obligations under the Plan (including this Program).

ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS

12.1Responsibility for Distributions and Withholding of Taxes. The Administrative Committee shall furnish information to the Company last employing the Participant concerning the amount and form of distribution to any Participant entitled to a distribution so that the Company may make or cause the Rabbi Trust to make the distribution required. The Administrative Committee shall also calculate the deductions from the amount of the benefit paid under the Plan (including this Program) for any taxes required to be withheld by federal, state, local, or foreign government and shall cause them to be withheld.

12.2Limitation of Rights. Nothing in the Plan (including this Program) shall be construed:

(a) to give a Participant any right with respect to any benefit except in accordance with the terms of the Plan (including this Program);

(b) to limit in any way the right of Sysco or a Subsidiary to terminate a Participant’s employment;

(c) to evidence any agreement or understanding, expressed or implied, that Sysco or a Subsidiary shall employ a Participant in any particular position or for any particular remuneration; or

(d) to give a Participant or any other person claiming through him any interest or right under the Plan (including this Program) other than that of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

12.3Benefits Dependent Upon Compliance with Certain Covenants. The benefits provided to a Participant under this Program by the Company are dependent upon the Participant’s full compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.4 of this Program.

12.4Distributions to Incompetents or Minors. Should a Participant become incompetent or should a Participant designate a Beneficiary who is a minor or incompetent, the Administrative Committee is authorized to pay the funds due to the parent of the minor or to the guardian of the minor or incompetent or directly to the minor or to apply those funds for the benefit of the minor or incompetent in any manner the Administrative Committee determines in its sole discretion.

12.5Non-alienation of Benefits. No right or benefit provided under the Plan (including this Program) is subject to transfer, anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge by the Participant, except upon his death to a named Beneficiary as provided in the Plan (including this Program). If any Participant or any Beneficiary becomes bankrupt or attempts to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any right or benefit under the Plan (including this Program), that right or benefit shall, in the discretion of the Administrative Committee, be forfeited. In that event, the Administrative Committee may have the Company hold or apply the right or benefit or any part of it to the benefit of the Participant or Beneficiary, his or her spouse, children or other dependents or any of them in any manner and in any proportion the Administrative Committee believes to be proper in its sole and absolute discretion, but is not required to do so.

12.6Reliance upon Information. The Administrative Committee shall not be liable for any decision or action taken in good faith in connection with the administration of the Plan (including this Program). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any decision or action taken by the Administrative Committee when it relies upon information supplied it by any officer of the Company, the Company’s legal counsel, the Company’s actuary, the Company’s independent accountants or other advisors in connection with the administration of the Plan (including this Program) shall be deemed to have been taken in good faith.

amendment specifically provides that it shall apply to those persons and it does not have the effect of reducing those persons’ Vested Accrued Benefits as then fixed without their consent.

12.8Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of the Plan (including this Program) is held to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, the rest of the Plan (including this Program) shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated.

12.9Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Committee or a Participant shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by U.S. mail to the principal office of the Company or to the residential mailing address of the Participant. Notice shall be deemed to be given as of the date of hand delivery or if delivery is by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark.

12.10Gender and Number. If the context requires it, words of one gender when used in the Plan (including this Program) shall include the other genders, and words used in the singular or plural shall include the other.

12.11Governing Law. The Plan (including this Program) shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware except to the extent such laws are pre-empted by federal law. The Participant and the Company agree that subject to the provisions of Sections 7.6(a) through 7.6(c) of this Program, the sole and exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute under this Program shall lie in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, and the parties hereby waive any jurisdictional or venue-related defense to litigating at this forum.

12.12Effective Date. This Program is effective as of December 31, 2012.

12.13Compliance with Section 409A. The Plan (including this Program) is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code in both form and operation, and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted, to the extent possible, in a manner that complies with Section 409A.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Sysco has executed this document on this November 14, 2012, effective as of December 31, 2012.
