(c)

On the Effective Date all assets and liabilities of the MW Plan shall be assets and liabilities of the FutureBuilder Plan, and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the name under which the MW Plan assets are held shall be changed to the Trustee under the FutureBuilder Plan.

All elections, designations and other exercises of rights and privileges by participants with respect to accounts under the MW Plan shall be deemed effective and applicable with respect to such accounts under the FutureBuilder Plan, until changed in accordance with the FutureBuilder Plan.



(e)

Any forfeitures from MW Plan accounts, arising after the Effective Date shall be allocated in accordance with the FutureBuilder Plan.

Any employee who has satisfied the requirements for participation under the MW Plan on the Effective Date and who is employed by Home Depot on the Effective Date, shall be a participant in the FutureBuilder Plan on the Effective Date, and any other employee shall become a participant in the FutureBuilder Plan upon satisfaction of the FutureBuilder Plan's participation requirements.
