The shares of SUPERVALU INC. common stock shall at all times remain in the form of SUPERVALU INC. common stock and shall not be liquidated, reinvested or exchanged for other assets, provided that if SUPERVALU INC. common stock is exchanged, converted or otherwise changed into another security by reason of a corporate transaction or similar event, the Trustee shall hold such replacement asset in the Trust Fund. Section 4.4 Distribution of Trust Assets; Limitations. (a) At the direction of the Employer to the Recordkeeper prior to the Effective Time or upon the Application of a Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant following the Effective Time, the Recordkeeper shall prepare a certification to the Trustee that benefits under the RSUs have become payable, which certification shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A" as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Such certification shall include the number of RSUs payable on each payment date, the number of shares and amount of cash to be paid, the terms of payment, and the name, address and social security number of the recipient. The Recordkeeper shall provide a separate certification (with an updated calculation of the cash payable) for each payment date, with the amount payable to each Participant indicated separately. Upon the receipt of such certified statement and subject to Section 4.6, the Trustee shall liquidate such Trust assets as may be available and necessary to pay the benefits set forth in such certification and shall make or commence cash distributions and distributions of SUPERVALU INC. common stock from the Trust Fund in accordance therewith to the person or persons so indicated and to the appropriate taxing authorities with respect to taxes required to be withheld, provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to make any distribution which would reduce the value of the cash assets of the Trust Fund described in Section 4.3 to less than the Retention Amount. The Recordkeeper shall also furnish a copy of such certification to the Participant or the beneficiary of a deceased Participant. The Employer shall furnish the Trustee with the applicable rates for tax withholding, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such information. The Trustee shall furnish each Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant with the appropriate tax information form evidencing such payment and the amount thereof. The Trustee shall provide the Employer with written confirmation of any payments hereunder within 10 business days after such payments are made or commenced to a Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant. (b) If a Participant is entitled to receive a fractional share of SUPERVALU INC. common stock, the Trustee shall pay to the Participant the cash value of such fractional share from the cash assets in the Trust. -6- (c) Subject to Section 4.6, the only persons who shall be entitled to payments from this Trust pursuant to this Section 4.4 following the Effective Time shall be Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants, and persons who become beneficiaries of such persons. The Trustee shall make distributions pursuant to this Section 4.4 only as directed by the Recordkeeper and shall rely on a certification received from the Recordkeeper for purposes of complying with this Section 4.4. (d) If payments to be made from the Trust to a Participant plus the Retention Amount exceed the Value of the Trust Fund and if the Employer does not otherwise provide the accrued benefits to the Participant outside of the Trust, the unpaid benefits shall constitute a Deficiency Amount, and the cash portion of the unpaid benefits shall accrue interest from the date payment would otherwise have been made, until paid, at the Interest Crediting Rate. Employer shall pay any Deficiency Amounts as soon as practicable from assets outside the Trust. In determining whether the Employer has made any payment from assets outside the Trust, the Trustee is entitled to rely on a certification from the Employer that the Employer has made such payments. Section 4.5 Protection of Trustee. The Trustee shall be fully protected in making or refraining from making any payments in accordance with the terms of this trust agreement. Section 4.6 Creditors of Employer. The Trust Fund shall at all times be subject to the claims of the Employer's general creditors but shall be utilized to satisfy any such claims only in the case of the Employer's bankruptcy or insolvency. The Employer shall be considered "bankrupt" or "insolvent" if the Employer is either unable to pay its debts when due or is subject to a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101, et seq. The Board of Directors and chief executive officer of the Employer are responsible to give written notice to the Trustee and the Recordkeeper of the Employer's bankruptcy or insolvency as soon as practicable following the occurrence of such event. Upon receipt of such notice of the Employer's bankruptcy or insolvency, or in the case of the Trustee's receipt of a written notice from a creditor of the Employer alleging the Employer's bankruptcy or insolvency, the Trustee shall discontinue payments to Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants and shall hold the Trust Fund for the benefit of the Employer's general creditors. The Trustee shall resume payments to Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants only after it has been notified by the Employer (or has received an Expert's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel stating) that the Employer is no longer bankrupt or insolvent or pursuant to an order of a court of competent jurisdiction. If the Trustee discontinues payments to Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants, the first payment following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate of all payments which would have been made to the Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants together with interest on the cash portion from the date payment would otherwise have been made, until paid, at the Interest Crediting Rate. Section 4.7 Compensation and Expenses. The Trustee and the Recordkeeper shall be entitled to receive compensation for services rendered. Such compensation shall be the usual -7- and customary fees of the Trustee or Recordkeeper in effect from time to time for similar services unless in the case of the Trustee, an amount is agreed upon in writing by the Employer and the Trustee and in the case of the Recordkeeper, the Employer and the Recordkeeper, and shall, unless paid directly by the Employer, be a lien against and paid out of the assets of the Trust Fund, provided, an individual serving as Trustee who receives compensation from the Employer for full-time employment shall not receive additional compensation from the Trust. The Recordkeeper and the Trustee (whether or not the Trustee is a full-time employee of the Employer) shall be reimbursed for any reasonable expenses, including reasonable counsel and Expert fees, incurred by the Recordkeeper or the Trustee in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Trust Fund or Trust and the exercise or performance of any of their respective powers or duties hereunder, and such expenses shall, unless paid directly by the Employer, be a lien against and paid out of the assets of the Trust Fund. Section 4.8 Limitation of Administrative Duties. Nothing contained in the Merger Agreement (including any Disclosure Letter related thereto), the Plans or the terms of the RSUs, or any other document either expressly or by implication, shall be deemed to impose any responsibilities, obligations or duties on the Trustee or the Recordkeeper other than those set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall have no responsibility, obligation or duty (a) with respect to any action required by the Merger Agreement (including any Disclosure Letter related thereto), the Plans, the terms of the RSUs, or this Trust to be taken by the Employer, the Recordkeeper, or any other Expert, any employee, Participant, beneficiary or any other person and (b) to enforce any of the Employer's obligations to make contributions to the Trust.

Upon receipt of written approval of the accounting from the Employer (or upon the passage of 60 days without written objections having been delivered to the Trustee) such accounting shall be deemed to be approved, and the Trustee shall be released and discharged as to all items, matters and things set forth in such accounting. -8- Section 4.10 General Management Powers.

As soon as practicable after the Recordkeeper has resigned or has been removed hereunder, it shall deliver to the successor Recordkeeper all reports, records, documents and other written information in its possession regarding the RSUs, the Trust Fund and the Participants, and thereupon shall be entitled to all unpaid fees, compensation and reimbursements to which it is entitled under this Trust and shall be relieved of all responsibilities and duties under this Trust. (h) If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its trust business or assets to another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. Section 4.14 Duties of the Recordkeeper. Within 10 days following the close of each Trust Year ending after the Effective Time, the Recordkeeper shall file with the Employer and the Trustee a written statement setting forth for each Participant and beneficiary of a deceased Participant his or her Value of Accrued Benefits as of the last day of such Trust Year. In the event the Employer fails to provide the Recordkeeper with the information necessary to prepare such written statement, the Recordkeeper shall file the written statement based on a good faith estimate of the Value of Accrued Benefits. In addition, the Recordkeeper shall maintain or cause to be maintained all the Participant records required by this Trust and shall perform such other duties and responsibilities necessary or advisable to achieve the objectives of this Trust. Following the Effective Time, the Recordkeeper shall prepare and distribute to the Employer, Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants, Participant statements, with respect to payments to Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants. In the event that the Employer refuses or neglects to provide updated Participant information, as contemplated herein, the Recordkeeper shall be entitled to rely on the most recent information furnished to it by the Employer. The Recordkeeper shall have no responsibility to verify information provided to it by the Employer; provided, however, no information provided by the Employer following the Effective Time shall reduce any benefit to which a Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant was entitled under the RSUs or this Trust as of the Effective Time. Section 4.15 Determinations by the Trustee; Notices. Within 21 days following receipt by the Trustee of written notice from any Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant that such Participant or beneficiary believes the Effective Time has taken place, the Trustee shall determine if the Effective Time has in fact occurred. Within 5 days of making the foregoing determination the Trustee shall give written notice of its determination to the Employer, -13- Recordkeeper and all Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants, which notice shall attach a complete copy of any Opinion of Counsel rendered to the Trustee with regard to the foregoing, a complete copy of any notice to the Trustee alleging that the Effective Time has occurred as well as all materials in the possession of the Trustee which relate to the foregoing determinations; provided, however, that no notice from the Trustee is required if the Employer has notified Participants of the occurrence of the Effective Time or has otherwise publicly disclosed in a press release or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that the Effective Time has occurred. Section 4.16 Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, and in making any determination with respect to the Effective Time, the Value of the Trust Fund or any other determination hereunder (including but not limited to determinations of the validity of consents of the Majority Participants), the Trustee may require and rely on an Expert's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both covering such matters as the Trustee may reasonably require. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Expert's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel or with the consent of the Majority Participants. (c) The Trustee may act through agents and Experts and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or Expert appointed and retained with due care or with the consent of the Employer or the Majority Participants. (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, provided that the Trustee's conduct does not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take and which constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. (e) No provision of this trust agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Section 4.17 Priority of Distribution and Liquidation of Trust Assets. Whenever Trust assets are required to be distributed pursuant to this trust agreement, the Trustee shall pay such distributions with SUPERVALU INC. common stock, as directed by the Recordkeeper, and cash on hand, if any. To the extent cash on hand (not including the Retention Amount) is not sufficient to pay such distributions, the Trustee shall liquidate investments described in Section 4.3. -14- ARTICLE V GENERAL ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS Section 5.1 Exchange of Information by the Employer and the Trustee. The Trustee shall furnish to or on the order of the Employer whatever information relating to the Trust Fund is necessary for the performance by the Employer of its functions with respect to the RSUs or the Obligations or this Trust. The Employer shall furnish to or on the order of the Trustee whatever information relating to the Trust Fund and Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants is necessary for the performance by the Trustee of its functions hereunder. The Employer and Trustee may each rely and act upon information so furnished without further inquiry. For purposes of this trust agreement, a certification from the Employer shall mean a written communication signed by a person authorized to act for the Employer stating that the contents of the communication are certified to by the author as being true and accurate. Section 5.2 Information to the Recordkeeper and Trustee. The Employer shall provide the Recordkeeper with a certified copy of the Plans, a schedule of RSU holdings by Participant and all amendments thereto, payment elections provided to the Employer by the Participants, and all information necessary to determine the benefits payable to or with respect to each Participant, including any benefits payable after each Participant's death and the recipient of the same. The Employer shall regularly, at least annually, or promptly on the request of the Recordkeeper, furnish revised updated information to the Recordkeeper. In addition, promptly after the last day of each calendar year quarter, the Employer agrees to notify the Trustee and Recordkeeper as to those persons who are then Participants or beneficiaries of deceased Participants, which notice shall specify the name, address and social security number of such persons. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the latest available written notice from the Employer regarding such information. The Employer shall be responsible for keeping accurate books and records with respect to the employees of the Employer, their compensation and their rights and interests in the Trust Fund and with respect to the RSUs and the Obligations. Section 5.3 Mistake of Fact. Any misstatement or any other mistake of fact in any certificate, notice or other document filed with the Employer, the Recordkeeper or the Trustee shall be corrected when it becomes known and proper adjustment shall be made by reason thereof; provided, however, the Trustee shall offset any overpayment to any Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant against future payments to such Participant or beneficiary but shall have no obligation to seek reimbursement from any Participant, beneficiary of a deceased Participant or other person to whom the Trustee has disbursed amounts from the Trust Fund pursuant to any such certificate, notice or other document. Section 5.4 Taxes. The Employer may from time to time pay taxes of any and all kinds whatsoever which at any time are levied or assessed upon or become payable in respect of the Trust Fund, the income therefrom or any property forming a part thereof, or any purchase, sale, collateral security or other transaction pertaining thereto. To the extent that any taxes levied or assessed upon the Trust Fund or in respect of such income, property or transaction are not paid by the Employer, the Trustee shall pay such taxes out of the Trust Fund and the Employer, shall reimburse the Trustee for any amounts so paid. The Trustee shall, at the Employers expense, contest the validity of such taxes in any manner deemed appropriate by the Employer or its counsel, but only if the Trustee has received an indemnity bond or other security satisfactory to it to pay all of its fees and expenses with respect to such contest; provided, however, the Trustee shall have no obligation to contest if it receives an Opinion of Counsel to -15- the effect that there is no reasonable basis in law or fact for such contest. Alternatively, the Employer may itself contest the validity of any such taxes. Section 5.5 Voting of SUPERVALU INC. Stock. The Trustee will vote the SUPERVALU INC. common stock held in the Trust and may exercise any right appurtenant to such stock, either in person or by general or limited proxy, power of attorney or other instrument. Section 5.6 Investment Company Act. Notwithstanding any other provision of this trust agreement, the Employer and the Trustee agree that in the event the Trust may be deemed to be an "investment company" as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), they shall use their best efforts to take such action as shall be necessary so that either (i) the Trust will qualify for an exemption from the provisions of the Investment Company Act or (ii) the Trust will not be deemed to be such an investment company. ARTICLE VI AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION Section 6.1 Right to Amend. Prior to the time when the Trust shall become irrevocable as provided in Section 6.2, this trust agreement may be amended by an instrument in writing, duly executed by the Employer and delivered to the Trustee, which instrument shall certify to the Trustee that the Trust has not become irrevocable. When the Trust shall become irrevocable as provided in Section 6.2, this trust agreement may not thereafter be amended in whole or part by the Employer, provided, however, that this trust agreement may nonetheless be amended by an instrument in writing, duly executed by the Employer, and delivered to the Trustee and all Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants only (a) with the express written consent of the Majority Participants on the date of such amendment, (b) as necessary to obtain a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the tax consequences of the establishment or settlement of the Trust as a grantor trust within the meaning of Section 671 of the Code, or (c) as necessary to prevent the Trust from being deemed an "investment company" as defined under the Investment Company Act or to ensure that the Trust qualifies for an exemption from the provisions of such act, provided, that the duties, powers and liabilities of the Trustee shall not be increased without the Trustee's written consent, and, provided further, that the amount or time of payment of any benefit hereunder to any Participant or beneficiary of a deceased Participant may not be reduced, altered or adversely affected without the written consent of the affected Participant or beneficiary. Section 6.2 Termination of Trust and Reversion of Assets. Following the occurrence of the Effective Time, the Trust shall be irrevocable; provided that the Trust shall nonetheless terminate upon the earlier of (a) the payment of all Obligations and amounts due Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants under the RSUs, as determined by the Recordkeeper, and (b) the date that there are no longer Trust assets in the Trust Fund. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Trust may be revoked by the Employer by an instrument in writing delivered to the Trustee and accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Trust is revocable and that the Effective Time has not occurred. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, if the Trustee has received notice, pursuant to Section 3.3 or Section 4.15, that the Effective Time may have occurred, the Trust may not be revoked until the Trustee has determined that the Effective -16- Time has not occurred. Upon revocation of the Trust, any and all assets remaining in the Trust Fund after payment of the Trustee's and Recordkeeper's compensation and other expenses of the Trust, shall revert to the Employer and the Trustee shall promptly transfer any such assets to the Employer. Upon termination of the Trust other than by revocation, the Trustee shall pay all Obligations due Participants and beneficiaries of deceased Participants under the RSUs, as determined by the Recordkeeper, and any and all assets remaining in the Trust Fund after payment of the Trustees and Recordkeeper's compensation and other expenses of the Trust, shall revert to the Employer and the Trustee shall promptly transfer any such assets to the Employer. Upon termination of the Trust for whatever reason the Trustee shall prepare and file a final statement and accounting with the Employer and all necessary returns, statements, forms and reports as may be required of the Trustee by law. Upon receipt of written approval of the accounting from the Employer (or upon the passage of 60 days without written objections having been delivered to the Trustee) such accounting shall be deemed approved, and the Trustee shall be released and discharged as to all items, matters and things set forth in such accounting.

If a dispute arises as to the amounts or timing of any such benefits or the persons entitled thereto under the RSUs or this Trust, the Employer agrees that such dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration proceedings initiated in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association and that the results of such proceedings shall be -17- conclusive and shall not be subject to judicial review. It is expressly understood and agreed that pending a resolution of any such dispute, payment of benefits shall be made and continued by the Trustee in accordance with the certification by the Recordkeeper and that the Trustee and the Recordkeeper shall have no liability with respect to such payments. The Employer agrees to pay the entire cost of any arbitration or legal proceeding, including the legal fees of the Trustee, the Recordkeeper and the Participant or the beneficiary of any deceased Participant regardless of the outcome of any such proceeding or the party which initiated any such proceeding, and until so paid the expenses thereof shall be a charge on and lien against the Trust Fund.
