ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

          Not applicable.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

          The Registrant’s Second Restated Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability (i) for any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

          The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers and may indemnify its employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Registrant believes that indemnification under its Amended and Restated Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties. The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws also permit the Registrant to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such capacity, regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. The Registrant currently has secured such insurance on behalf of its officers and directors.

          The Registrant has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and officers, in addition to indemnification provided for in the Registrant’s Bylaws. Subject to certain conditions, these agreements, among other things, indemnify the Registrant’s directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Registrant, arising out of such person’s services as a director or officer of the Registrant, any subsidiary of the Registrant or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Registrant.

          Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s Board of Directors to grant indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Exchange Act. The Registrant’s Second Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for indemnification of its officers, directors, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware Law.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

          Not applicable.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Exchange Act, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Exchange Act, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Effective January 1, 1998, clause (2) of subsection (1) of Section 1.1 is amended in its entirety to read as follows: "(2) Who is performing services for the Employer through an employment or [easing agency, including Leased Employees." 2. Effective 1, 1998, subsection (m) of Section 1.1 is amended in its entirety to read as follows: "(m) "Employee" shall mean a person currently employed by an Employer, any portion of whose income is subject to withholding of federal income tax and/or for whom Social Security contributions are made by the Employer, as well as any other person qualifying as a common law employee of the Employer. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, for purposes of the requirements listed in Code section 414(n)(3), the term "Employee" shall include Leased Employees; provided, however, that a Leased Employee shall not be considered an Employee if: (i) such employee is covered by a money purchase pension plan providing: (1) a nonintegrated employer contribution rate of at least 10 percent of compensation, as defined in Code section 4l5(c)(3), but including amounts contributed pursuant to a salary reduction agreement which are excludible from the employee's gross income under Code section 125, section 402(e)(3), section 402(h)(l)(B), or section 403(b) of the Code, (2) immediate participation, and (3) full and immediate vesting; and (ii) Leased Employees do not constitute more than 20 percent of the Employer's non-highly compensated work force." 3. Effective January 1,1997, Section 1.1 is amended by adding the following new subsection (ss) at the end thereof: "(ss) "Leased Employee" shall mean any person (other than an employee of the Employer) who pursuant to an agreement between the Employer and any other person ("leasing organization") has performed services for the Employer (or for the Employer and related person determined in accordance with Code section 414(n)(6)) on a substantially full time basis for a period of at least one year, and such services are performed under the primary direction or control by the Employer. Contributions or benefits provided to a Leased Employee by the 1 leasing organization which are attributable to services performed for the Employer shall be treated as provided by the Employer." 4. Effective January 1,2001, Section 3.5 is amended to read as follows: "Vesting of Contributions.

Further, effective January 1, 2001, if a Participant is employed by an Employer on January 1, 2001, his vested interest in his Matching Contribution Account and Profit Sharing Contribution Account shall be 100%.

Dated: ______________________ By: [ILLEGIBLE] ---------------------------------- 3 SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE NETWORK ASSOCIATES, INC. TAX DEFERRED SAVINGS PLAN The Network Associates, Inc. Tax Deferred Savings Plan, as amended and restated as of January 1, 1998, (the "Plan") is hereby amended, effective as of January 1, 2002, unless specified otherwise, as follows: 1. Plan Section 3.2(b)(3) is amended in its entirety to read as follows: "(3) Effective January 1, 2001, if the Participant has made Tax-Deferred Contributions to the Plan for the Plan Year, as of June 30 or December 31, in an amount at least equal to 6% of Compensation paid to the Participant during the Plan Year, the Participant shall receive an additional Matching Contribution equal to 4% of the Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year, less the amount of Matching Contributions made on behalf of such Participant pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(2) above with respect to such Plan Year. Compensation shall not include amounts paid during the Plan Year but prior to the date the Eligible Employee becomes a Participant in the Plan with respect to the Matching Contribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum amount of the Matching Contribution allocated to a Participant's Separate Account per Plan Year shall be $4,000. Matching Contributions shall not be made with respect to Tax-Deferred Contributions made prior to the date the Eligible Employee becomes a Participant in the Plan with respect to Matching Contributions. A Participant must be employed by an Employer on either June 30 or December 31 in order to receive the additional Matching Contribution set forth in this Section 3.2(b)(3). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Participant whose employment is terminated during the Plan Year as a result of death, disability (as determined under the Company's long-term disability plan), or after Normal Retirement Age shall receive an allocation of the additional Matching Contribution." 2. Plan Section 3.4 is amended in its entirety to read as follows: "3.4 After-Tax Contributions. Effective January 1, 2002, a Participant may make After-Tax Contributions to the Plan of not less than 1% nor more than the percentage determined by the Committee and communicated to participants from time to time, subject to the limits set forth in Section 2 of Appendix A. All After-Tax Contributions shall be transferred to the Trustee or such other depository as the Employer may designate as soon as it is reasonable to do so and in no event later than fifteen (15) business days following the close of the month in which such After-Tax Contributions were deducted from Participants' Compensation. Any assets so transferred on behalf of a Participant shall be allocated to the Participant's After-Tax Contribution Account." 3. Plan Section 6.7(f) is deleted in its entirety and Sections 6.7(g) and (h) are renumbered as Sections 6.7(f) and (g). 4. In accordance with Internal Revenue Service Ruling 2002-27, effective for limitation years beginning on or after January 1,1998, Plan Section 12.7 is amended by adding the following paragraph at the end of Section 12.7(a)(3): "For purposes of the definition of compensation under Section 12.7, amounts under Section 125 include any amounts not available to a participant in cash in lieu of group health coverage because the participant is unable to certify that he or she has other health coverage. An amount will be treated as an amount under Section 125 only if the Employer does not request or collect information regarding the participant's other health coverage as part of the enrollment process for the health plan." 5. The Plan is amended by adding the following new Appendix at the end thereof: "Appendix A to the Network Associates, Inc. Tax Deferred Savings Plan SECTION 1: PREAMBLE 1. Adoption and effective date of amendment. This Appendix amends the Plan to reflect certain provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 ("EGTRRA"). This amendment is intended as good faith compliance with the requirements of EGTRRA and is to be construed in accordance with EGTRRA and guidance issued thereunder. Except as otherwise provided, this amendment shall be effective as of the first day of the first plan year beginning after December 31, 2001. 2. Supersession of inconsistent provisions. This amendment shall supersede the provisions of the Plan to the extent those provisions are inconsistent with the provisions of this amendment. SECTION 2; LIMITATIONS ON CONTRIBUTIONS 1. Effective date. This section shall be effective for limitation years beginning after December 31, 2001. 2. Maximum annual addition. The Annual Addition that may be contributed or allocated to a Participant's Accounts under the Plan for any limitation year shall not exceed the lesser of: (a) $40,000, as adjusted for increases in the cost-of-living under section 415(d) of the Code, or (b) 100 percent of the Participant's Compensation, within the meaning of section 415(c)(3) of the Code, for the limitation year. The Compensation limit referred to 2 in (b) shall not apply to any contribution for medical benefits after separation from service (within the meaning of section 401(h) or section 419A(f)(2) of the Code) which is otherwise treated as an annual addition. SECTION 3: INCREASE IN COMPENSATION LIMIT The annual compensation of each participant taken into account in determining allocations for any plan year beginning after December 31, 2001, shall not exceed $200,000, as adjusted for cost-of-living increases in accordance with section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Code, Annual compensation means compensation during the plan year or such other consecutive 12-month period over which compensation is otherwise determined under the plan (the determination period). The cost-of-living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to annual compensation for the determination period that begins with or within such calendar year. SECTION 4: MODIFICATION OF TOP-HEAVY RULES 1. Effective date. This section shall apply for purposes of determining whether the plan is a top-heavy plan under section 416(g) of the Code for plan years beginning after December 31, 2001, and whether the plan satisfies the minimum benefits requirements of section 416(c) of the Code for such years. This section amends Article 13 of the Plan. 2. Determination of top-heavy status. 2.1 Key employee. Key employee means any employee or former employee (including any deceased employee) who at any time during the plan year that includes the determination date was an officer of the employer having annual compensation greater than $130,000 (as adjusted under section 416(i)(l) of the Code for plan years beginning after December 31, 2002), a 5-percent owner of the employer, or a 1-percent owner of the employer having annual compensation of more than $150,000. For this purpose, annual compensation means compensation within the meaning of section 415(c)(3) of the Code. The determination of who is a key employee will be made in accordance with section 416(i)(l) of the Code and the applicable regulations and other guidance of general applicability issued thereunder. 2.2 Determination of present values and amounts. This section 2.2 shall apply for purposes of determining the present values of accrued benefits and the amounts of account balances of employees as of the determination date. 2.2.1 Distributions during year ending on the determination date. The present values of accrued benefits and the amounts of account balances of an employee as of the determination date shall be increased by the distributions made with respect to the employee under the plan and any plan 3 aggregated with the plan under section 4l6(g)(2) of the Code during the 1-year period ending on the determination date. The preceding sentence shall also apply to distributions under a terminated plan which, had it not been terminated, would have been aggregated with the plan under section 416(g)(2)(A)(i) of the Code. In the case of a distribution made for a reason other than separation from service, death, or disability, this provision shall be applied by substituting "5-year period" for "1-year period." 2.2.2 Employees not performing services during year ending on the determination date. The accrued benefits and accounts of any individual who has not performed services for the employer during the 1-year period ending on the determination date shall not be taken into account. 3. Minimum benefits. Employer matching contributions shall be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the minimum contribution requirements of section 416(c)(2) of the Code and the plan. The preceding sentence shall apply with respect to matching contributions under the plan or, if the plan provides that the minimum contribution requirement shall be met in another plan, such other plan. Employer matching contributions that are used to satisfy the minimum contribution requirements shall be treated as matching contributions for purposes of the actual contribution percentage test and other requirements of section 401(m) of the Code. SECTION 5: DIRECT ROLLOVERS OF PLAN DISTRIBUTIONS 1. Effective date. This section shall apply to distributions made after December 31,2001. 2. Modification of definition of eligible retirement plan. For purposes of the direct rollover provisions in section 7.7 of the Plan, an eligible retirement plan shall also mean an annuity contract described in section 403(b) of the Code and an eligible plan under section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state and which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such plan from this plan. The definition of eligible retirement plan shall also apply in the case of a distribution to a surviving spouse, or to a spouse or former spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relation order, as defined in section 414(p) of the Code. 3. Modification of definition of eligible rollover distribution to exclude hardship distributions. For purposes of the direct rollover provisions in section 7.7 of the plan, any amount that is distributed on account of hardship shall not be an eligible rollover distribution and the distributee may not elect to have any portion of such a distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan. 4. Modification of definition of eligible rollover distribution to include after tax employee contributions. For purposes of the direct rollover provisions in section 7.7 4 of the plan, a portion of a distribution shall not fail to be an eligible rollover distribution merely because the portion consists of after-tax employee contributions which are not includible in gross income. However, such portion may be transferred only to an individual retirement account or annuity described in section 408(a) or (b) of the Code, or to a qualified defined contribution plan described in section 401 (a) or 403(a) of the Code that agrees to separately account for amounts so transferred, including separately accounting for the portion of such distribution which is includible in gross income and the portion of such distribution which is not so includible.

Participant Rollover Contributions from Other Plans. The Plan will accept a participant contribution of an eligible rollover distribution from a qualified plan described in section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code, including after-tax employee contributions; an annuity contract described in section 403(b) of the Code, including after-tax employee contributions; and an eligible plan under section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state. 4. Participant Rollover Contributions from IRAs. The Plan will accept a participant rollover contribution of the portion of a distribution from an individual retirement account or annuity described in section 408(a) or 408(b) of the Code that is eligible to be rolled over and would otherwise be includible in gross income. SECTION 7: ROLLOVERS DISREGARDED IN INVOLUNTARY CASH-OUTS 1. Applicability and effective date. This section shall apply to distributions made after December 31, 2001, but before November 1, 2002. 2. Rollovers disregarded in determining value of account balance for involuntary distributions. For purposes of section 7.3(d) of the Plan, the value of a participant's nonforfeitable account balance shall be determined without regard to that portion of the account balance that is attributable to rollover contributions (and earnings allocable thereto) within the meaning of sections 402(c), 403(a)(4), 403(b)(8), 408(d)(3)(A)(ii), and 457(e)(16) of the Code. If the value of the participant's nonforfeitable account balance as so determined is $5,000 or less, the plan shall immediately distribute the participant's entire nonforfeitable account balance. 5 SECTION 8: REPEAL OF MULTIPLE USE TEST The multiple use test described in Treasury Regulation section 1.401(m)-2 and section 12.4 of the plan shall not apply for plan years beginning after December 31,2001.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, Compensation with respect to any period ending prior to the date on which an Employee first became eligible to participate in the allocation of Profit Sharing Contributions shall be disregarded in determining the amount of the Employee's allocable share.

For Participants who do not have at least one Hour of Service in any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 1988, the preceding sentence shall be applied by substituting "5 Years of Vesting Service" for "3 Years of Service" where such language appears.

(e) Loans must be evidenced by the borrowing Participant's promissory note for a fixed term bearing interest at a reasonable rate of interest as determined by the Administrative Committee. (f) Loans must be required to be repaid within five (5) years; however, if the proceeds of the loan are to be used to acquire any dwelling unit which within a reasonable time is to be used as the Participant's principal residence, such a loan must be repaid within fifteen (15) years.

If distribution is made because of the Participant's death prior to the commencement of the distribution of his Account and less than 100% of the Participant's vested interest in his Account (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) is payable to his surviving spouse, then the balance of the Participant's vested interest in his Account shall be adjusted by reducing the vested account balance by the amount of the security used to repay the loan, as provided in the preceding sentence, prior to determining the amount of the benefit payable to the surviving spouse. (i) If a Participant fails to make or cause to be made any payment required under the terms of the loan by the last day of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which such payment was due or there is an outstanding principal balance existing on a loan 16 after the last scheduled repayment date, the Administrative Committee may direct the Trustee to declare the loan to be in default, and the entire unpaid balance of such loan, together with accrued interest, shall be immediately due and payable.

(c) The Plan shall rely on the safe harbor requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.401(k)-1(d)(2)(iv)(A) and (B) for purposes of determining that an immediate and heavy financial need exists and that a distribution is necessary to satisfy such financial need. (d) The Participant must have obtained any loans and distributions which he or she may be entitled to obtain under the Plan, unless obtaining a loan would increase his or her financial hardship. (e) Except as otherwise permitted by the Company for good reason and pursuant to policies which are uniformly applied to all Participants on a non-discriminatory 19 basis, no Participant shall be permitted to make more than one hardship withdrawal in any Plan Year pursuant to this Section 6.7. (f) The Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions to the Plan and all other plans maintained by the Company shall be limited for the calendar year following the year in which a hardship withdrawal is received to the maximum amount permitted under Code section 402(g) for such calendar year reduced by the amount of the Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions for the calendar year in which the hardship withdrawal is received. (g) The Participant may not authorize Tax-Deferred Contributions or After-Tax Contributions to the Plan and all other qualified and nonqualified plans of deferred compensation maintained by the Company for twelve (12) months after the receipt of a hardship withdrawal. (h) The minimum hardship withdrawal that a Participant may make is $1,000. ARTICLE VII DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION 7.1 Form of Distribution. The normal form of distribution of the balance in the Participant's Accounts shall be a single sum payment. Distribution shall be made in cash or in kind at the Participant's or his Beneficiary's election. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.1, a former Cinco Networks 401(k) Plan participant ("Cinco Participant") or his Beneficiary, if the Cinco Participant has died, shall with respect to his Plan interest, have the option to receive a distribution in installment payments over a period certain, not to extend beyond the life expectancy of the Cinco Participant or the joint life expectancy of the Cinco Participant and his Beneficiary. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Participant may elect to receive distribution of the fair market value of his Separate Account in the form of Employer Stock. 7.2 Amounts Available for Distribution. The value of the Participant's Accounts shall be determined based on the Valuation Date coincident with or preceding the date on which the distribution is made. 7.3 Distribution Payments. Distributions shall not, except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.3 and Article 6, begin before the Participant's termination of employment with the Employer. Upon a termination of employment with the Employer, the balances in the Participant's Accounts, reduced to the extent necessary to discharge any outstanding loan obligation, shall be distributed as follows: (a) Timing of Distribution Payments - General Rule. A distribution of the vested balance in a Participant's Accounts shall be made as soon as practicable after the earlier of: (1) The date the Administrative Committee receives the Participant's written distribution request, but not earlier than thirty (30) days after the notice required under 20 Treasury Regulation section 1.411(a)-11(c) is given unless the Participant has waived the thirty (30) day notice requirement pursuant to Section 7.3(b); or (2) The sixtieth (60th) day after the close of the Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occur: (i) The Participant's Normal Retirement Date; (ii) The tenth (10th) anniversary of Participant's commencement of participation in the Plan; or (iii) The Participant's termination of employment with the Employer. (b) Waiver of 30-day Notice Requirement. A terminated Participant may elect to waive the 30-day notice period and such distribution may commence less than thirty (30) days after the notice required under Treasury Regulation section 1.411(a)-11(c) is given, provided that: (1) The Administrative Committee clearly informs the Participant that the Participant has a right to a period of at least thirty (30) days after receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a particular distribution option), and (2) The Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively elects a distribution. (c) Distributions In Accordance with Code Section 401(a)(9). Notwithstanding any other Plan provision, effective for Participants who reach age 70 1/2 on or after January 1, 2000, other than 5% owners (as described in Code section 416), distributions shall begin no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the calendar year in which the Participant reaches age 70 1/2 or retires. For a 5% owner (as described in Code section 416), and for Participants who attain age 70 1/2 prior to January 1, 2000, distributions shall commence no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70 1/2; provided however, effective January 1, 1997, Participants who have not terminated employment with the Company, other than employees who are 5% or greater shareholders of the Company, may elect to defer their distribution until termination of employment. All distributions shall be made in accordance with Code section 401(a)(9) and the regulations promulgated thereunder. (d) Involuntary Cashouts. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.3(a) above, the Accounts of a terminated Participant shall be distributed in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable after termination if the vested value of the Participant's Accounts at the time of any distribution has never exceeded $3,500 ($5,000 as of January 1, 1998), or with respect to distributions on or after March 22, 1999, if the value of the Participant's vested Accounts at the time of distribution does not exceed $5,000. 21 (e) Distributions Impossible. If the amount of a required distribution cannot be ascertained by the date the distribution is to be made or if it is not possible to make such distribution because the Employer has been unable to locate the Participant after making reasonable efforts to do so, a distribution retroactive to the required commencement date may be made no later than sixty (60) days after the earliest date on which the amount of such distribution can be ascertained under the Plan or the date on which the Participant is located, whichever is applicable. 7.4 Death Benefits. Upon the death of a Participant, his or her Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive a death benefit determined as follows: (a) The death benefit shall be an amount equal to the balances in the Participant's Accounts, reduced to the extent necessary to discharge any outstanding loan obligation, at the time of the Participant's death. The death benefit shall be paid in a single sum payment. (b) Payment of the death benefit shall be made or commence, as appropriate, to the Participant's Beneficiary as soon as administratively feasible following the date the Plan Administrator receives notice of the Participant's death, but in no event later than five (5) years following notice, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Committee, of the Participant's death. 7.5 Investment of Deferred Distributions. When the distribution to a terminated Participant is deferred because such terminated Participant has not submitted a written request for distribution, as required by Section 7.3(a), then such inactive Participant shall have all the rights of a Participant who is currently employed with respect to the investment of his or her Accounts. 7.6 Forfeitures. (a) Occurrence of Forfeitures. The portion of a Participant's Separate Account that is not vested upon the occurrence of his Termination of Employment shall be disposed of as follows: (i) If the Participant has no vested interest in his Separate Account upon the occurrence of his Termination of Employment or the aggregate value as of the date of distribution does not exceed $3,500 ($5,000 as of January 1, 1998) resulting in the Participant's receipt of a single sum payment of his vested interest in his Separate Account, the non-vested balance remaining in the Participant's Matching Contribution Account and Profit Sharing Contribution Account will be forfeited and his Separate Account closed as of (i) the Participant's Termination of Employment, if the Participant has no vested interest in his Separate Account, or (ii) the date the single sum payment occurs. (ii) If the aggregate value of the Participant's vested interest in his Separate Account exceeds $3,500 ($5,000 as of January 1, 1998) and the Participant is eligible for and consents in writing to payment of his vested interest in his Separate Account, the non-vested balance remaining in the Participant's Matching Contribution Account and Profit Sharing Contribution Account will be forfeited and his Separate Account closed as of the date the 22 payment occurs, provided that such distribution occurs prior to the end of the second Plan Year beginning on or after the Participant's Termination of Employment. (iii) neither paragraph (1) nor paragraph (2) is applicable, the non-vested portion of the Participant's Matching Contribution Account and Profit Sharing Contribution Account will continue to be held in such accounts and will not be forfeited until the end of the five-year period beginning on his Termination of Employment. Whenever the non-vested portion of a Participant's Matching Contribution Account and Profit Sharing Contribution Account is forfeited under the provisions of the Plan with respect to a Plan Year, the amount of such forfeiture, as of the last day of the Plan Year, shall be applied against the employer contribution obligations for the Plan Year of the Employer for which the Participant last performed services as an Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, should the amount of all such forfeitures for any Plan Year with respect to any Employer exceed the amount of such Employer's employer contribution obligation for the Plan Year, the excess amount of such forfeitures shall be held unallocated in a suspense account established with respect to the Employer and shall for all Plan purposes be applied against the Employer's employer contribution obligations for the following Plan Year. (b) Recrediting of Forfeited Amounts. A former Participant who forfeited the non-vested portion of his Matching Contribution Account and Profit Sharing Contribution Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.6(a) and who is reemployed by an Employer or a Related Company shall have such forfeited amounts recredited to a new Separate Account in his name, without adjustment for interim gains or losses experienced by the Trust, if: (i) he returns to employment with an Employer or a Related Company before the end of the five-year period beginning on the later of his Termination of Employment or the date he received distribution of his vested interest in his Separate Account; (ii) he resumes employment covered under the Plan before the end of the five-year period beginning on the date he is reemployed; and (iii) if he received distribution of his vested interest in his Separate Account, he repays to the Plan the full amount of such distribution before the end of the five-year period beginning on the date he is reemployed. Funds needed in any Plan Year to recredit the Separate Account of a Participant with the amounts of prior forfeitures in accordance with the preceding sentence shall come first from forfeitures that arise during such Plan Year, and then from Trust income earned in such Plan Year, with each Trust Fund being charged with the amount of such income proportionately, unless his Employer chooses to make an additional employer contribution, and shall finally be provided by his Employer by way of a separate employer contribution. 7.7 Direct Transfer of Eligible Rollover Distributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Distributee may request that the Company direct the Trustee to pay any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution directly to the Eligible Retirement Plan designated by the Distributee. Such direct payment shall be made in accordance with the distribution timing rules set forth in Section 7.3, as appropriate. The amount of such direct 23 payment may not exceed the portion of the distribution which would be included in the Distributee's gross income for income tax purposes if it were not directly paid or otherwise transferred in a timely manner to an Eligible Retirement Plan. For the purposes of this direct transfer provision, the following definitions shall apply: (a) Eligible Rollover Distribution. An Eligible Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include: any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee's designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Code section 401(a)(9); the portion of any distribution that is not includable in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities); and effective for distributions after December 31, 1999, a hardship distribution described in Code section 401(k)(2)(B)(i)(IV) in the amount described in Treasury Regulation section 1.401(k)-1(d)(2)(ii). (b) Eligible Retirement Plan. An Eligible Retirement Plan shall include the following: (i) an individual retirement account described in Code section 408(a), (ii) an individual retirement annuity described in Code section 408(b), (iii) an annuity plan described in Code section 403(a), and (iv) a qualified plan trust described in Code section 401(a), provided that such plan accepts rollover distributions. However, in the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to the surviving spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is limited to an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity. (c) Distributee. A Distributee includes an Employee or former Employee. In addition, the Employee's or former Employee's surviving spouse and the Employee's or former Employee's spouse or former spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Code section 414(p), are Distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse. (d) Direct Rollover. A Direct Rollover is a payment by the Plan to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee. 7.8 No Liability. Any payment to a Participant, or to his or her legal representative or Beneficiary, or direct transfer to an Eligible Retirement Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, shall be, to the extent of such payment, in full satisfaction of all claims to Plan benefits against the Trustee, the Company and the Employer. The Administrative Committee does not guarantee the Trust, the Participants, or their legal representatives or Beneficiaries against loss of or depreciation in value of any right or benefit payable under the terms of the Plan. All of the benefits payable under the Plan shall be paid or provided for solely from the Trust; the Employer assumes no liability or responsibility for payments of Plan benefits. 7.9 Mandatory Withholding. All distributions except direct transfers of Eligible Rollover Distributions pursuant to Section 7.7 shall be subject to mandatory federal income tax withholding pursuant to Code section 3405 and the regulations thereunder. 24 ARTICLE VIII BENEFICIARIES 8.1 Beneficiary Designation. Subject to the provisions of this Section and Section 8.3, each Participant shall have the right to designate, in the form required by the Administrative Committee, a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive the benefits provided under the Plan in the event of his or her death. Each Participant shall have the right at any time to revoke such designation or to substitute another such Beneficiary or Beneficiaries. If a married Participant designates or has previously designated a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries other than the Participant's spouse to receive any portion of the benefits provided under this Plan, such designation shall be invalid unless and until (a) the Participant's spouse consents in writing to such designation, (b) such consent acknowledges the effect of the beneficiary designation, and (c) such consent is witnessed by a Notary Public or a Plan representative. Once such consent is given, it may not be revoked and the Participant may not change his or her beneficiary designation (except to name the Participant's spouse as the sole Beneficiary) without a new consent by the Participant's spouse, which new consent must also meet the above requirements. 8.2 Absence of Valid Designation. If, upon the death of a Participant, former Participant or Beneficiary, there is no valid designation of Beneficiary on file with the Administrative Committee, the Company shall designate as the Beneficiary, in order of priority: (a) The surviving spouse; or (b) The Participant's estate. 8.3 Surviving Spouse Beneficiary. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, if a Participant or former Participant dies leaving a surviving spouse, and if such spouse had been married to the Participant on the date of the Participant's death, such surviving spouse shall be the Beneficiary for all purposes under the Plan unless the Participant previously designated another or an additional Beneficiary, and such surviving spouse consented to this designation in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.1. ARTICLE IX QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS 9.1 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. In accordance with Code section 414(p), ERISA section 206(d)(3), and any regulations promulgated thereunder, the Administrative Committee shall establish reasonable written procedures to determine the qualified status of domestic relations orders received with respect to Participants and to administer distributions to alternate payees under such qualified domestic relations orders. 9.2 Payments Pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (a) Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, and in accordance with reasonable procedures applied in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner, the Administrative Committee shall direct the Trustee to make a payment as soon as administratively 25 feasible to an alternate payee pursuant to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order received with respect to a Participant, regardless of whether such Participant has terminated employment with the Employer; provided, however, that if the amount of such payment exceeds $3,500 ($5,000 effective January 1, 1998), the payment shall not be made without the written consent of the alternate payee. (b) Any payment to an alternate payee, or to his or her legal representative or beneficiary, pursuant to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order shall be in full satisfaction of all claims under such order against the Employer, the Company, and the Trustee, as the case may be, any of whom may require such alternate payee, or his or her legal representative or beneficiary, to execute a receipt therefor in such form as shall be determined by the Employer or the Trustee, as the case may be. ARTICLE X CLAIMS PROCEDURE 10.1 General Procedure. A Participant or Beneficiary entitled to benefits under the Plan need not file a request to receive such benefits. However, if the Participant or Beneficiary believes that his or her benefits have been incorrectly determined, he or she may make a written application for review of the determination previously made by the Administrative Committee. All such applications for review shall be submitted to the Administrative Committee at the offices of the Company currently located at 3965 Freedom Circle, Santa Clara, California 95054 (Attn: 401(k) Administrative Committee) in writing in the form prescribed by the Administrative Committee and must be signed by the Participant, the Beneficiary or legal representative of the Participant. Each application shall be acted upon and approved or disapproved within ninety (90) days following its receipt by the Administrative Committee, which period may be extended up to an additional ninety (90) days upon written notice by the Administrative Committee to the applicant. In the event any application for benefits is denied, in whole or in part, the Administrative Committee shall notify the applicant in writing of such denial and of the applicant's right to a review by the Administrative Committee. Said denial shall set forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant specific reasons for such denial, specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, a description of any additional material or information necessary for the applicant to perfect his or her application, an explanation of why such material or information is necessary and an explanation of the Plan's review procedure. Any person, or such person's duly authorized representative, whose application for benefits is denied in whole or in part may appeal from such denial to the Administrative Committee for a review of the decision by submitting to the Administrative Committee within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from the Administrative Committee of the denial of the claim a written statement: (a) Requesting a review of his or her application for benefits by the Administrative Committee; 26 (b) Setting forth all of the grounds upon which his or her request for review is based and any facts in support thereof; and (c) Setting forth any issues or comments which the applicant deems pertinent to this application. 10.2 Procedure of Administrative Committee to Review Appeals. (a) The Administrative Committee shall make a full and fair review of each such application and any written materials submitted by the applicant in connection therewith and may require the applicant to submit such additional facts, documents or other evidence as the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable in making such a review. On the basis of its review, the Administrative Committee shall make a determination of the applicant's eligibility for benefits under the Plan. The decision of the Administrative Committee on any application for benefits shall be final and conclusive upon all persons if supported by substantial evidence in the record. Such a decision on review shall ordinarily be made within sixty (60) days after the Administrative Committee's receipt of an applicant's request for review, unless the Administrative Committee requires further time, in which case a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of an applicant's request for review. (b) In the event the Administrative Committee denies an application in whole or in part, the Administrative Committee shall give written notice of its decision to the applicant setting forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant the specific reasons for such denial and the specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the Administrative Committee's decision was based. 10.3 Exhaustion of the Claims Procedure. No individual shall be entitled to bring a legal action to enforce the terms of this Plan unless such individual has first exhausted the claims procedure set forth in this Article 10. ARTICLE XI DESIGNATION OF NAMED FIDUCIARY 11.1 Administrative Committee. The Administrative Committee is the named fiduciary and administrator of the Plan as provided for by ERISA and shall have the power and authority to manage and control the operation and administration of the Plan. The Administrative Committee is also the named fiduciary for investments and shall have the power and authority to manage the Plan assets in accordance with ERISA. 11.2 Composition of Administrative Committee. Effective May 1, 2000, the Administrative Committee shall be comprised of the individuals who may from time to time hold the following positions with the Company (or comparable positions in the event that the Company renames such positions): Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President Corporate Controller, Vice President of Human Resources, Director, Compensation and Benefits, and Benefits Analyst (formerly known as 401(k) Analyst). The appointment of any person to such position shall automatically constitute the appointment of such person to the Administrative 27 Committee and the resignation, termination or transfer of any person from such position shall constitute the automatic resignation of such person from the Administrative Committee. In the event of a vacancy on the Administrative Committee due to a vacancy in one or more of the above positions listed above, the members of the Administrative Committee or the Board may appoint an interim member to fill such vacancy, such individual to serve until a person is named to the designated position, at which time the interim member shall be deemed to have resigned and the person appointed to the designated position shall become an Administrative Committee member. 11.3 Administrative Powers. The Administrative Committee shall have complete control of the administration of the Plan, with all powers necessary to enable it properly to carry out its duties in that respect. Not in limitation, but in amplification of the foregoing, the Administrative Committee shall have the power and authority to: (a) Construe the Plan and to determine all questions that shall arise as to interpretations of the Plan's provisions, including determination of eligibility of Employees, amounts of credits, allocation of assets, method of payment, whether distributions from the Trust shall be made in cash or in kind and the assets to be distributed, and participation and benefits under the terms of the Plan; (b) Establish reasonable rules and procedures which shall be applied in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner for enrollment in the Plan and to changes by Participants on their contributions and investment options; (c) Establish the rules and procedures by which the Plan will operate; (d) Establish a Plan loan policy pursuant to Article 5 and rules and procedures for the administration of such Plan loan policy that are consistent with the Plan and all applicable laws and regulations; (e) Establish procedures in accordance with Code section 414(p) to determine the qualified status of domestic relations orders and to administer distributions under such qualified orders; (f) Construe and interpret the Plan and Trust Agreement and adopt rules for Plan administration that are consistent with the terms of the Plan documents and with ERISA and the Code and regulations thereunder; (g) Compile and maintain all records it determines to be necessary, appropriate or convenient in connection with the administration of the Plan; (h) Adopt amendments to the Plan document and/or the Trust Agreement that are (i) requested by the Internal Revenue Service to ensure that the Plan is qualified under Code Section 401(a); (ii) necessary to ensure that the Plan complies with subsequent changes in any law applicable to the Plan; and (iii) such other amendments which shall, in the Administrative Committee's discretion, be appropriate or desirable, except such amendments that shall obligate the Company to make additional or greater contributions to the Plan or revise the vesting schedule for Matching Contributions and Profit Sharing Contributions set forth in Section 3.5; 28 (i) Employ such persons or organizations to render service or perform services with respect to the administrative responsibilities of the Administrative Committee under the Plan as the Administrative Committee determines to be necessary and appropriate, including but not limited to actuaries, attorneys, accountants, and benefit, financial and administrative consultants. 11.4 Investment Powers and Responsibilities. In the exercise of its power and responsibilities as the named fiduciary for investments, the Administrative Committee shall have the power, authority and responsibility to: (a) Establish an investment policy and select, review and retain or change the investment funds offered under the Plan in accordance with its established investment policy; (b) Review the performance of the Trustee with respect to the Trustee's duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Plan and Trust Agreement; (c) Direct the investment of the assets of the Trust in accordance with each Participant's investment directions; (d) Communicate Participants' investment directions to the Trustee in a timely manner; (e) Appoint (or remove) Investment Managers, as defined in Section 1.1(s); (f) Offer one or more investment funds that are invested in whole or in part in equity securities issued by an Employer or Related Company that are publicly traded and are "qualifying employer securities" as defined in ERISA section 407(d)(5). (g) Take such other action as may be necessary or appropriate to the management and investment of the Plan assets. 11.5 Fiduciary Responsibility. The Plan is intended to constitute a plan described in ERISA Section 404(c). To the extent that a Participant exercises control over the assets in his Separate Account, as determined under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Labor, neither the Company, any Related Company, any Participating Company, the Administrative Committee, the Trustee nor any other fiduciary or designee shall be liable for any loss, or by reason of any breach, which results from such Participant's exercise of control and investment direction. Neither the Company, any Affiliated Company, any Participating Company, the Administrative Committee, the Trustee nor any other fiduciary or designee who complies with the standards set forth in Article XI hereof shall be liable for any loss which results from investment performance under any of the investment funds including, but not limited to, depreciation in the value of stock or other property held under any of the investment funds. The Trustee and the Administrative Committee or their designees shall provide information to Participants consistent with ERISA Section 404(c) and the regulations and other guidance issued thereunder. 11.6 Decisions of the Administrative Committee. Decisions of the Administrative Committee made in good faith upon any matter within the scope of its authority shall be final, 29 conclusive and binding upon all persons, including Participants and their legal representatives or Beneficiaries; but the Company shall at all times, in giving effect to its decisions, act without discrimination in favor of or against any Participant, legal representative or Beneficiary. 11.7 Exclusive Benefit. The Administrative Committee shall perform its duties under the Plan solely in the interest of the Participants and their Beneficiaries. Any discretion granted to the Administrative Committee shall be exercised only in accordance with rules and policies established by the Administrative Committee that are applicable on a nondiscriminatory basis. 11.8 Fiduciaries. Any person or group of persons may serve in more than one fiduciary capacity with respect to the Plan. 11.9 Indemnification. The Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the Board, the Administrative Committee and any other Employees to whom any fiduciary responsibility with respect to the Plan is allocated or delegated, from and against any and all liabilities, costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by such persons as a result of any act, or omission to act, in connection with the performance of their duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Plan and under ERISA, other than such liabilities, costs and expenses as may result from the bad faith, willful misconduct or criminal acts of such persons or to the extent such indemnification is specifically prohibited by ERISA. The Employer shall have the obligation to conduct the defense of such persons in any proceeding to which this Section 11.9 applies. If any Board member, Administrative Committee member or any Employee covered by this indemnification clause of this Section 11.9 determines that the defense of the Employer is inadequate, that member shall be entitled to retain separate legal counsel for his or her defense and the Employer shall be obligated to pay for all reasonable legal fees and other court costs incurred in the course of such defense unless a court of competent jurisdiction finds such person has acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misconduct or criminal acts. The Employer may satisfy its obligation under this Section 11.9 in whole or in part, through the purchase of a policy or policies of insurance, but no insurer shall have any rights against the Company arising out of this Section 11.9. 11.10 Expenses. The expenses associated with the operation of the Plan and Trust shall be paid by the Employer or, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Committee, charged to the Plan and paid from the Plan's assets provided that such payments by the Plan are not prohibited by ERISA or the regulations thereunder. ARTICLE XII LIMITS ON CONTRIBUTIONS 12.1 Section 415 Limits on Contribution Allocations. (a) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in accordance with the requirements of Code section 415, no contribution to the Plan shall knowingly be made and no amount shall be allocated to a Tax-Deferred Contribution Account, Matching Contribution Account, Profit Sharing Contribution Account and After-Tax Contribution Account if such contribution or allocation would cause the Annual Addition to the Participant's Accounts for a 30 limitation year to exceed the lesser of: (i) twenty five percent (25%) of the Participant's Compensation from the Employer for such Plan Year, or (ii) thirty-thousand dollars ($30,000). For purposes of this Section 12.1(a), the following definitions and rules shall apply: (1) "Annual Addition" shall mean for any Plan Year the sum of the Tax-Deferred Contributions, Matching Contributions, Profit Sharing Contributions and After-Tax Contributions allocated to a Participant's Accounts. Additionally, "Annual Addition" shall include amounts allocated to an individual medical account, as defined in Code section 415(l)(2), that is part of a defined benefit plan maintained by the Company and amounts derived from contributions paid or accrued that are attributable to post-retirement medical benefits allocated to the separate account of a Key Employee (as defined in Code section 419A(d)(3)) under a welfare benefit fund (as defined in Code section 419(e)) maintained by the Company. (2) If the Employer is contributing to another defined contribution plan, as defined in Code section 414(i), for Employees of the Employer, some or all of whom may be Participants of the Plan, then any such Participant's Annual Addition in such other plan shall be aggregated with such Participant's Annual Addition derived from the Plan for purposes of the limitation in this Section 12.1(a). (3) "Compensation" shall have the meaning set forth in Section 12.7(a). (b) For Plan Years beginning before January 1, 2000, if a Participant in the Plan is also a participant in a defined benefit plan, as defined in Code section 414(j), to which contributions are made by the Employer, then in addition to the limitation contained in Section 12.1(a), for any Plan Year the sum of such Participant's defined benefit plan fraction (as defined by Code section 415(e)(2)) for all such plans and his or her defined contribution plan fraction (as defined by Code section 415(e)(3)) for all such plans for such Plan Year shall not exceed 1.0. In any Plan Year in which the Plan is a Top Heavy or Super Top Heavy Plan, the above limitation on Annual Additions shall be calculated by substituting the fraction "1.0" for the fraction "1.25" wherever it is used to determine the Participant's defined benefit fraction (as defined by Code section 415(e)(2)) and the defined contribution plan fraction (as defined by Code section 415(e)(3)). (c) Effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2000, in order to implement the limitations set forth in Sections 12.1(a) and 12.1(b), the aggregate of the Annual Additions to the Plan and the Annual Additions to any other defined contribution plan shall be limited or reduced until the applicable limitation is satisfied, (to the extent permitted by regulations promulgated by the Secretary of Treasury) in the following order: in the following order of priority: (1) Return of any After-Tax Contributions to the Participant (plus attributable earnings) to the extent that they would reduce the excess amount; (2) If after application of paragraph (c)(1) an excess amount still exists, return of any Tax-Deferred Contributions (plus attributable earnings) to the Participant to the extent that they would reduce the excess amount; 31 (3) If after the application of paragraph (c)(2) an excess amount still exists, and the Participant is covered by the Plan at the end of the limitation year, the excess amount in the Participant's account will be used to reduce employer contributions (including any allocation of forfeitures) for such Participant in the next limitation year, and each succeeding limitation year if necessary. (4) If after the application of paragraph (c)(2) an excess amount still exists, and the Participant is not covered by the plan at the end of a limitation year, the excess amount will be held unallocated in a suspense account. The suspense account will be applied to reduce future employer contributions for all remaining Participants in the next limitation year, and each succeeding limitation year if necessary. The suspense account shall be unadjusted for income or loss and shall be allocated as of each date on which an allocation of contributions may be made in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3.2 and 3.3, above, until the suspense account is exhausted. No further employer contributions may be made under the Plan on behalf of the Participant until the suspense account is exhausted. Upon termination of the Plan, any amount credited to the suspense account remaining unallocated shall be repaid to the Employer, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary. 12.2 Annual Limitation on Tax-Deferred Contributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no Participant shall be permitted to have Tax-Deferred Contributions made to the Plan on his or her behalf during any calendar year in excess of the dollar limit specified in Code section 402(g) ($10,000 in 1998) less any amounts deferred under other plans or arrangements described in Code sections 401(k), 408(k) or 403(b) maintained by the Company or any other employer of the Participant. This dollar limitation shall be adjusted automatically for each Plan Year by the cost of living adjustment prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury under Code section 415(d), as applied in such manner as the Secretary shall provide. (a) Excess Deferrals. For purposes of this Section 12.2, a Participant's "Excess Deferrals" shall mean the amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions for a calendar year which are in excess of the limit set forth above in this Section 12.2 (as applied to all tax deferred elective contributions under the Plan and other plans specified by law) and which the Participant allocates to the Plan as part of the Participant's election. (b) Distribution of Excess Deferrals. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess Deferrals and income allocable thereto for a given calendar year may be distributed no later than April 15 of the following calendar year to Participants who claim such Excess Deferrals by making a timely election in the form required by the Administrative Committee. Such election must be made no later than March 1 immediately following the close of the calendar year in which the Excess Deferrals were made. If an amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions is distributed to a Participant in accordance with this Section, Matching Contributions that are attributable solely to the distributed Tax-Deferred Contributions, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be forfeited by the Participant. Any such forfeited amounts shall be treated as a forfeiture under the Plan as of the last day of the month in which the distribution of Tax-Deferred Contributions pursuant to this Section occurs. 32 (c) Adjustment of Excess Deferrals for Income or Losses. A Participant's Excess Deferrals shall be adjusted for income or loss for the calendar year in which the Excess Deferrals occurred, which shall be determined by multiplying the total amount of income or loss allocable to the Tax-Deferred Contribution Account for the applicable calendar year by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Participant's Excess Deferrals and the denominator of which shall be the balance in the Tax-Deferred Contribution Account on the last day of the applicable calendar year (excluding any income or loss allocable to such Account for the calendar year in which the Excess Deferrals occurred). If the distribution of Excess Deferrals to a Participant is made after the calendar year in which the Excess Deferrals occur, then the Participant's Excess Deferrals shall also be adjusted for income or loss for the period between the end of the applicable calendar year and the time of the distribution by any method permitted under regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury, provided that the method selected shall be applied in a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis for all Participants with Excess Deferrals. (d) Correction of Erroneous Excess Deferrals. In the event a Participant erroneously makes Excess Deferrals to the Plan during a calendar year, the Plan may make a corrective distribution of such Excess Deferrals during the same calendar year provided that the individual designates the distribution as an Excess Deferral, the corrective distribution is made after the date on which the Plan received the Excess Deferral and the Plan designates the distribution as a distribution of Excess Deferrals. 12.3 Actual Deferral Percentage Limitation. (a) Actual Deferral Percentage Test. In order that the Plan comply with the requirements of Code section 401(k), the Tax-Deferred Contributions made for each Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests: (1) The Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage determined under the testing method specified in Section 12.3(c)(2) below, for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (2) The Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage in Section 12.3(c)(2) for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by two (2), provided that the Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees does not exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees by more than two (2) percentage points, or such lesser amount as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe to prevent the multiple use of this alternative test with respect to any Highly Compensated Employee. (b) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 12.3, the following definitions shall apply: 33 (1) "Actual Deferral Percentage" shall mean the average (expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest one hundredth of one percent) of the Deferral Percentages of the Participants in a group. (2) "Deferral Percentage" shall mean the ratio (expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest one hundredth of one percent) that a Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions made during a Plan Year bears to the Participant's Compensation for such Plan Year. In the case of a Participant who makes no Tax-Deferred Contributions during the Plan Year, such Participant's Deferral Percentage shall be zero (0). (3) "Compensation," for purposes of this Section 12.3, shall have the meaning set forth in Section 12.7(a). (4) "Participant" shall include any Eligible Employee who would be eligible to make Tax-Deferred Contributions" to the Plan, but for (i) an election or requirement to suspend Tax-Deferred Contributions, (ii) an election not to make Tax-Deferred Contributions or (iii) an inability to receive additional Annual Additions because of the limits imposed by Code section 415(c)(1) or for limitation years commencing before January 1, 2000, Code section 415(e). (c) Special Rules. For purposes of this Section 12.3, the following special rules shall apply: (1) Effective for Plan Years beginning or after January 1, 1999, at the discretion of Administrative Committee, and in accordance with Code section 401(k)(3)(F), all Non-Highly Compensated Employees who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of Code section 401(a)(1)(A) may be excluded from the Actual Deferral Percentage tests set forth in this Section 12.3. (2) For purposes of the Actual Deferral Percentage test in Section 12.3(a) above, the Plan shall use the current year testing method. (3) The Deferral Percentage for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have elective deferral contributions allocated to his or her account under two or more plans or arrangements described in Code section 401(k) that are maintained by the Company or a Related Company shall be determined as if all such elective deferrals were made under a single arrangement. (4) As provided in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury, the Administrative Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to take into account matching contributions and qualified non-elective contributions, as defined in Code section 401(m), made on behalf of a Participant under the Plan or any other plan of the Employer for purposes of determining such Participant's Deferral Percentage, provided that such contributions are nonforfeitable when made and distributable only in accordance with Code sections 401(k)(2)(B) and 401(k)(10). (5) The Administrative Committee shall maintain such records as are necessary to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this Section 12.3, including the 34 extent to which Matching Contributions and qualified non-elective contributions are taken into account for purposes of determining a Participant's Deferral Percentage. (6) The determination and treatment of the Tax-Deferred Contributions and Deferral Percentage of any Participant shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. (7) For purposes of determining whether this Plan satisfies the Actual Deferral Percentage test set forth in Section 12.3(a), all elective contributions made under two or more plans that are aggregated for purposes of Code section 401(a)(4) or 410(b) (other than Code section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii)) are to be treated as though made under a single plan. Additionally, if two or more plans are permissively aggregated for purposes of Actual Deferral Percentage test, the aggregated plans must also satisfy the requirements in Code sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single plan. (d) Definition of Excess Contributions. For purposes of this Section 12.3, "Excess Contributions" shall mean the excess of: (1) The aggregate amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions contributed on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees who were Participants during a Plan Year, over (2) The maximum amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions permitted under Section 12.3(a) for such Plan Year. (e) Avoidance of Excess Contributions. In order that the Plan shall comply with the requirements of Code section 401(k) and the regulations thereunder, at any time in a Plan Year the Administrative Committee (in its sole discretion) may reduce for the remainder of that Plan Year the rate of Tax-Deferred Contributions authorized by any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee, or the Administrative Committee may require that any Highly Compensated Employee who is a Participant discontinue all Tax-Deferred Contributions for the remainder of that Plan Year. Such a reduction or discontinuance may be applied selectively to individual Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees or to a particular class of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees, as the Administrative Committee may determine. Upon the close of the Plan Year, or on such earlier date as the Administrative Committee may determine, this Section 12.3(e) shall automatically cease to apply until the Administrative Committee again determines that a reduction or discontinuance of Tax-Deferred Contributions is required for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee. (f) Correction of Excess Contributions. (1) Methods of Correction. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan except Section 12.1, in the event neither of the special tests described in Section 12.3(a) can be satisfied, then the Excess Contributions of certain Highly Compensated Employees for a Plan Year shall first be offset by any Excess Deferrals previously distributed pursuant to Section 12.2 for the Participant's taxable year ending in the Plan Year. Any remaining Excess Contribution shall be corrected by the use of one or more of the following methods, as determined by the Administrator: 35 (i) By distribution of such Excess Contributions and allocable income to any Participants with Excess Contributions for such Plan Year. Distribution must be made, if administratively feasible, within the first 2-1/2 months of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Excess Contributions were made; provided, however, that in no event shall distribution occur later than the end of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Excess Contributions were made. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the consent of a Participant or his or her spouse shall not be required for a distribution of Excess Contributions and allocable income. (ii) By contribution by the Employer of Matching Contributions or qualified non-elective contributions, as described in Code sections 401(k) and 401(m), which may be taken into account for purposes of determining a Participant's Deferral Percentage, as provided in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury. If such method is used to correct Excess Contributions under this Section 12.3, it cannot also be used to correct Excess Aggregate Contributions pursuant to Section 12.4. In no event shall the Administrative Committee apply this method to correct Excess Contributions for a Plan Year without the prior approval of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Matching Contributions or qualified non-elective contributions made under this paragraph may be allocated selectively to individual Participants or to a particular class of Participants, as the Administrative Committee may determine in its sole discretion. Contributions to be made under this paragraph shall be contributed by the Employer as soon as administratively feasible, but in no event later than the end of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Excess Contributions were made. (iii) By any other method permitted under regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury. (2) Correction by Distribution of Excess Contributions. Correction of the Excess Contributions of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees through the distribution by Excess Contributions (and allocable income) as described in Section 12.3(f)(1)(i) must be accomplished on an Employee-by-Employee basis. The Excess Contributions shall be distributed as follows: Step 1: Calculate the individual dollar amount of Excess Contributions for each affected Highly Compensated Employee in a manner described in Code section 401(k)(8)(B) and the regulations promulgated thereunder; Step 2: Determine the aggregate of the individual dollar amounts calculated in Step 1 (the total Excess Contributions) and distribute this amount in accordance with Steps 3 and 4 below; Step 3: The Tax-Deferred Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest individual dollar amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions is reduced by the amount required to cause that Highly Compensated Employee's Tax-Deferred Contributions to equal the dollar amount of the Tax-Deferred Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest individual dollar amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions. This reduction amount is then distributed to the Highly Compensated Employee 36 with the highest individual dollar amount. However, if a lesser reduction, when added to the total dollar amount already distributed under this step, would equal the total Excess Contributions, the lesser reduction amount is distributed. Step 4: If the total amount distributed is less than the total Excess Contributions, Step 3 is repeated. If distributions of the Excess Contributions are made in accordance with this Section 12.3(f)(2), the Plan shall be treated as meeting the Actual Deferral Percentage Test of Code section 401(k)(3) regardless of whether the Actual Deferral Percentage Test, if recalculated after distributions of the Excess Contributions, would satisfy Code section 401(k)(3). (3) Income Allocable to Excess Contributions. The income allocable to Excess Contributions shall be equal to the sum of the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year for which the Excess Contributions were made, and the allocable gain or loss for the period between the end of such Plan Year and the date of distribution or forfeiture, as determined as follows: (i) The income allocable to a Participant's Excess Contributions for a Plan Year shall be determined by multiplying the total income for the Plan Year allocable to the Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions (including amounts treated as Tax-Deferred Contributions) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Participant's Excess Contributions, and the denominator of which shall be the total balance of the Participant's Account(s) attributable to Tax-Deferred Contributions (including amounts treated as Tax-Deferred Contributions) as of the end of the Plan Year, reduced by the gain allocable to such total amount for the Plan Year, and increased by the loss allocable to such total amount for the Plan Year. (ii) The allocable income shall include income for the period between the end of the Plan Year for which the Excess Contributions were made, and the date on which the corrective distribution occurs. For purposes of calculating the allocable income for this period, the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, shall select one of the two following methods, provided that the method selected shall be applied on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis for all Participants with Excess Contributions: a. The "fractional method," under which the income for the period between the end of the Plan Year and the last day of the month preceding the distribution shall be multiplied by a fraction determined under the method described in paragraph (i) above, or b. The "10% method," under which ten percent (10%) of the allocable income determined pursuant to paragraph (i) above, shall be multiplied by the number of calendar months that have elapsed between the end of the Plan Year and the distribution date. For purposes of determining the number of calendar months under the 10% method, a distribution that occurs on or before the fifteenth day of a month shall be treated as having occurred on the last day of the preceding month, and a distribution occurring after the 37 fifteenth day of a month shall be treated as having occurred on the first day of the following month. (4) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the determination and treatment of Excess Contributions shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. (5) If Excess Contributions and allocable income for a Plan Year are not corrected by distribution before the close of the first 2-1/2 months of the following Plan Year, the Employer shall be subject to a 10% excise tax on the amount of such Excess Contributions, pursuant to Code section 4979. Such excise tax shall be due at the same time as the Employer's income tax for its taxable year with or within which the Plan Year ends. (6) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, Matching Contributions and qualified non-elective contributions which are properly taken into account pursuant to Section 12.3(c)(4) may permit the Plan to avoid Excess Contributions for a Plan Year even if such Matching Contributions and qualified non-elective contributions are made after the close of the first 2-1/2 months of the following Plan Year. 12.4 Limits on Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions. (a) Actual Contribution Percentage Test. To ensure that the Plan complies with the requirements of Code section 401(m), the total of Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions made for each Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests: (1) The Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Actual Contribution Percentage determined under the testing method specified in Section 12.4(c)(2) below for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (2) The Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees multiplied by two (2), provided that the Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees does not exceed the Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees by more than two (2) percentage points, or such lesser amount as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe to prevent the multiple use of this alternate test with respect to any Highly Compensated Employee. (b) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 12.4, the following definitions shall apply: (1) "Actual Contribution Percentage" shall mean the average (expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest one hundredth of one percent) of the Contribution Percentages of the Participants in a group. 38 (2) "Contribution Percentage" shall mean the ratio (expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest one hundredth of one percent) that the Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions made on behalf of or by a Participant during the Plan Year bear to the Participant's Compensation for such Plan Year. (3) "Compensation" for purposes of this Section 12.4, shall have the meaning set forth in Section 12.7(a). (c) Special Rules. For purposes of this Section 12.4, the following special rules shall apply: (1) Effective for Plan Years beginning or after January 1, 1999, at the discretion of Administrative Committee, and in accordance with Code section 401(m)(5)(C), all Non-Highly Compensated Employees who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of Code section 401(a)(1)(A) may be excluded from the Actual Contribution Percentage tests set forth in this Section 12.4. (2) For purposes of the Actual Contribution Percentage test in Section 12.4(a), above, the Plan shall use the current year testing method. (3) The Contribution Percentage for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Matching Contributions or After-Tax Contributions allocated to his account under two or more plans described in Code section 401(a) or arrangements described in Code section 401(k) that are maintained by the Company or a Related Company shall be determined as if all such contributions were made under a single plan or arrangement. The previous sentence shall only apply if such plans or arrangements have the same plan years. (4) As provided in the regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury, the Administrative Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to take into account elective deferrals and qualified non-elective contributions, as defined in Code section 401(m), made on behalf of a Participant under the Plan or any other plan of the Employer for purposes of determining such Participant's Contribution Percentage only if such contributions meet the requirements set forth in Treasury Regulation section 1.401(m)-1(b)(5). (5) The Administrative Committee shall maintain such records as are necessary to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of Section 12.4(a), including the extent to which elective deferrals and qualified non-elective contributions are taken into account for purposes of determining a Participant's Contribution Percentage. (6) The determination and treatment of the Matching Contributions and Contribution Percentage of any Participant shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. (7) For purposes of determining whether this Plan satisfies the Actual Contribution Percentage test set forth in Section 12.4(a), all after-tax and matching contributions made under two or more plans that are aggregated for purposes of Code section 401(a)(4) or 410(b) (other than Code section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii)) are to be treated as though made under a single 39 plan. Additionally, if two or more plans are permissively aggregated for purposes of the Actual Contribution Percentage test, the aggregated plans must also satisfy the requirements in Code sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single plan. (d) Definition of Excess Aggregate Contributions. For purposes of this Article 12.4, "Excess Aggregate Contributions" shall mean the excess of: (1) The aggregate amount of the Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions made on behalf of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees during a Plan Year, over (2) The maximum amount of the Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions permitted under Section 12.4(a) for such Plan Year. (e) Correction of Excess Aggregate Contributions. (1) Methods of Correction. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event neither of the special tests described in Section 12.4(a) can be satisfied, then the Excess Aggregate Contributions of certain Highly Compensated Employees for a Plan Year shall be corrected by use of one or more of the following methods, as determined by the Administrative Committee: (i) By distribution or forfeiture of such Excess Aggregate Contributions and allocable income to any Participant with Excess Aggregate Contributions for such Plan Year. After-Tax Contributions shall be distributed first; to the extent that such Excess Aggregate Contributions and allocable income exceeds a Participant's After-Tax Contributions, Matching Contributions and allocable income shall be forfeited (to the extent unvested) or distributed (to the event vested). Distribution must be made, if administratively feasible, within the first 2-1/2 months of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Excess Aggregate Contributions were made; provided, however, that in no event shall distribution occur later than the end of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Excess Aggregate Contributions were made. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the consent of a Participant or his or her spouse shall not be required for a distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions and allocable income. Such distributions shall be in compliance with Code section 401(a)(4). (ii) By an Employer contribution of qualified non-elective contributions, as defined in Code section 401(k) and 401(m), which may be taken into account for purposes of determining a Participant's Contribution Percentage, as provided in regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury. If such method is used to correct Excess Aggregate Contributions, it may not also be used to correct Excess Contributions pursuant to Section 12.3. In no event shall the Administrative Committee apply this method to correct Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year without the prior approval of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, qualified non-elective contributions made under this paragraph may be allocated selectively to Participants or to a particular class of Participants, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Contributions to be made under this paragraph shall be contributed by the Employer as soon as administratively feasible, but in no 40 event later than the end of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Excess Aggregate Contributions were made. (iii) By any other method permitted under regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury. (2) Correction by Distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions. In order to correct the Excess Aggregate Contributions of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees, the methods of correction described in Section 12.4(e)(1) must be accomplished on an Employee-by-Employee basis. The Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be reduced as follows: Step 1: Calculate the individual dollar amount of Excess Aggregate Contributions for each affected Highly Compensated Employee in a manner described in Code section 401(m)(6)(B) and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Step 2: Determine the aggregate of the individual dollar amounts calculated in Step 1 (the total Excess Aggregate Contributions) and distribute or forfeit this amount in accordance with Steps 3 and 4 below: Step 3: The Excess Aggregate Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest individual dollar amount of Aggregate Contributions is reduced by the amount required to cause that Highly Compensated Employee's Aggregate Contributions to equal the dollar amount of the Aggregate Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest individual dollar amount of Aggregate Contributions. In accordance with Section 12.4(e)(1)(i), After-Tax Contributions shall be distributed first and then, Matching Contributions shall be forfeited (to the extent unvested) or distributed (to the extent vested), if necessary, to the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest individual dollar amount. However, if a lesser reduction, when added to the total dollar amount already distributed under this step, would equal the total Excess Aggregate Contributions, the lesser reduction amount is distributed. Step 4: If the total amount distributed is less than the Total Excess Aggregate Contributions, Step 3 is repeated. If distributions of the Excess Aggregate Contributions are made in accordance with this Section 12.4(e)(2), the Plan shall be treated as meeting the Actual Contribution Percentage Test of Code section 401(m)(2) regardless of whether the Actual Contribution Percentage Test, if recalculated after distribution of the Excess Aggregate Contributions, would satisfy Code section 401(m)(2). (3) Income Allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions. The income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be equal to the sum of the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year for which the Excess Aggregate Contributions were made, and the allocable gain or loss for the period between the end of such Plan Year and the date of distribution, as determined as follows: 41 (i) The income allocable to a Participant's Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year shall be determined by multiplying the total income for the Plan Year allocable to the sum of the Participant's Matching Contributions (including amounts treated as Matching Contributions) plus the Participant's After-Tax Contributions by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Participant's Excess Aggregate Contributions, and the denominator of which shall be the total balance of the Participant's Account(s) attributable to Matching Contributions (including amounts treated as Matching Contributions) plus After-Tax Contributions as of the end of the Plan Year, reduced by the gain allocable to such total amount for the Plan Year, and increased by the loss allocable to such total amount for the Plan Year. (ii) The allocable income shall include income for the period between the end of the Plan Year for which the Excess Contributions were made, and the date on which the corrective distribution occurs. For purposes of calculating the allocable income for this period, the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, shall select one of the two following methods, provided that the method selected shall be applied on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis for all Participants with Excess Aggregate Contributions: a. The "fractional method," under which the income for the period between the end of the Plan Year and the last day of the month preceding the distribution date shall be multiplied by a fraction determined under the method described in paragraph (i) above, or b. The "10% method," under which ten percent (10%) of the allocable income determined pursuant to paragraph (i) above, shall be multiplied by the number of calendar months that have elapsed between the end of the Plan Year and the distribution date. For purposes of determining the number of calendar months under the 10% method, a distribution that occurs on or before the fifteenth day of a month shall be treated as having occurred on the last day of the preceding month, and a distribution occurring after the fifteenth day of a month shall be treated as having occurred on the first day of the following month. (4) Notwithstanding any other provision to the Plan, a Participant's Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be determined after first determining his or her Excess Deferrals under Section 12.2 and then determining his or her Excess Contributions under Section 12.3. (5) If Excess Aggregate Contributions and allocable income are not corrected by distribution or forfeiture before the close of the first 2-1/2 months of the following Plan Year, the Employer shall be subject to a 10% excise tax on the amount of such Excess Aggregate Contributions, pursuant to Code section 4979. Such excise tax shall be due at the same time as the Employer's income tax for its taxable year with or within which the Plan Year ends. (6) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, qualified non-elective contributions which are properly taken into account pursuant to Section 12.4(c)(4) may permit the Plan to avoid Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year even if such qualified 42 non-elective contributions are made after the close of the first 2-1/2 months of the following Plan Year. 12.5 Further Limits on Non-Discrimination Testing of Salary Deferral, Matching and After-Tax Contributions. (a) In order for the Plan to comply with the requirements of Code sections 401(k) and 401(m), the Plan must satisfy the tests set forth in Section 12.3 and Section 12.4 hereof. However, the Employer must avoid the multiple use of the alternative limitation as set forth in Sections 12.3(a)(2) and 12.4(a)(2) with respect to Highly Compensated Employees. (b) For purposes of this Section 12.5, a multiple use of the alternative limitation is present when all of the following conditions occur: (1) One or more Highly Compensated Employees of the Employer are eligible to participate in a cash or deferred arrangement subject to Code section 401(k) and in a plan maintained by the Employer subject to Code section 401(m); (2) The sum of the Actual Deferral Percentage of the entire group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees under such arrangement subject to Code section 401(k) and the Actual Contribution Percentage of the entire group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees under such plan subject to Code section 401(m) exceeds the Aggregate Limit; (3) The Actual Deferral Percentage of the entire group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees under the arrangement subject to Code section 401(k) exceeds 125 percent of the Actual Deferral Percentage of the entire group of eligible Non-Highly Compensated Employees; and (4) The Actual Contribution Percentage of the entire group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees under such plan subject to Code section 401(m) exceeds 125 percent of the Actual Contribution Percentage of the entire group of eligible Non-Highly Compensated Employees. (c) For purposes of this Section 12.5, the Aggregate Limit is defined as the greater of: (1) The sum of: (i) 125 percent of the greater of the Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage or the Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage, and (ii) Two (2) percentage points plus the lesser of the Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage or the Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage. In no event, however, shall this amount exceed twice the lesser of the Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage or the Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage; or (2) The sum of: 43 (i) 125 percent of the lesser of the Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage or the Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage, and (ii) Two (2) percentage points plus the greater of the Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage or the Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage. In no event, however, shall this amount exceed twice the greater of the Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage or the Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage. (d) For purposes of this Section 12.5, the term "Relevant Actual Deferral Percentage" and the term "Relevant Actual Contribution Percentage" mean, respectively, the Actual Deferral Percentage and the Actual Contribution Percentage of the eligible group of Non-Highly Compensated Employees. (e) (1) In the event a multiple use of the alternative limitation as described in Section 12.5(b) is present, such multiple use shall be corrected by reducing the Actual Deferral Percentage or the Actual Contribution Percentage of the Highly Compensated Employees so that the combined Actual Deferral Percentage and the Actual Contribution Percentage does not exceed the Aggregate Limit. (2) The required reduction shall be treated as an Excess Contribution as described in Section 12.3(d) or as an Excess Aggregate Contribution as described in Section 12.4(d). (3) The Employer may elect to reduce the Actual Deferral Percentage or the Actual Contribution Percentage in order to correct the multiple use of the alternative limitation. (4) The method of correction to be used to reduce the Actual Deferral Percentage shall be the method as set forth in Section 12.3(f)(2). The method of correction to be used to reduce the Actual Contribution Percentage shall be the method as set forth in Section 12.4(e)(2). 12.6 Forfeiture of Matching Contributions. Matching Contributions attributable to the portion of the Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions which have been determined to be Excess Deferrals or Excess Contributions shall be forfeited and shall reduce the Matching Contributions to the Plan. 12.7 Special Definitions. (a) Compensation Definition. For purposes of this Article 12, "Compensation" shall mean compensation as defined in Code section 415(c)(3) and Treasury Regulation section 1.415-2(d) which shall include the items listed in paragraph (1) and exclude the items listed in paragraph (2) below: (1) Compensation shall mean wages, salaries, fees for professional services and other amounts received for personal services actually rendered in the course of employment with the Company or a Related Company (up to the applicable dollar limit set forth in Code section 401(a)(17)) which are paid in cash or in kind to an Employee during such Plan 44 Year. Such Compensation shall include, but shall not be limited to, wages under Code section 3401(a), commissions paid salespeople, compensation for services on the basis of a percentage of profits, commissions on insurance premiums, tips, bonuses, fringe benefits, reimbursements and expense allowances under a nonaccountable plan (as described in Treasury Regulation section 1.62-2(c)), which are paid in cash or in kind to an Employee during the Plan Year. Compensation shall also include foreign earned income (as defined in Code section 911(b)), whether or not excludable from gross income under Code section 911; amounts described in Code sections 104(a)(3), 105(a) and 105(h); amounts paid or reimbursed by the Employer for moving expenses incurred by an Employee, but only to the extent that it is reasonable to believe such amounts are not deductible by the Employee under Code section 217; the value of a nonqualified stock option granted to an Employee by an Employer, but only to the extent that the value of the option is includable in the Employee's gross income for the taxable year in which granted; and any amount includable in an Employee's gross income upon making an election described in Code section 83(b). (2) The following shall be excluded from the definition of Compensation: (i) Contributions made by the Company or any Related Company to a plan of deferred compensation to the extent that, before the application of the limitations of Code section 415 to that plan, the contributions are not includable in the gross income of the Employee for the taxable year in which contributed. In addition, Company or Related Company contributions made on behalf of an Employee to a simplified employee pension plan described in Code section 408(k) are not considered as compensation for the taxable year in which contributed to the extent such contributions are deductible by the Employee under Code section 219(b)(7). Additionally, any distributions from a plan of deferred compensation are not considered as compensation for purposes of Code section 415, regardless of whether such amounts are includable in the gross income of the Employee when distributed. However, any amounts received by an Employee pursuant to an unfunded non-qualified plan may be considered as Compensation for the purposes of this Section 12.7(a) in the Plan Year such amounts are includable in the gross income of the Employee. (ii) Amounts realized from the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, or when restricted stock (or property) held by an Employee either becomes freely transferable or is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture pursuant to Code section 83 and the regulations thereunder. (iii) Amounts realized from the sale, exchange or other disposition of stock acquired under a qualified stock option. (iv) Other amounts which receive special tax benefits, such as premiums for group term life insurance, but only to the extent that the premiums are not includable in the gross income of the Employee, or contributions made by the Company towards the purchase of an annuity contract described in Code section 403(b) (whether or not the contributions are excludable from the gross income of the Employee). 45 (3) Elective Deferrals Included After December 31, 1997. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.7(a)(4), below, with respect to limitation years beginning on or after January 1, 1998, Employee Compensation shall include any elective deferrals as defined in Code section 402(g)(3), and any amount which is contributed or deferred by the Employer at the election of the Employee and which is not includable in the gross income by reason of Code sections 125 or 457. (4) Special Rules. For purposes of Section 12.7(a), the following rules shall apply: (i) The annual Compensation of each Participant taken into account for determining all benefits provided under the Plan for any Plan Year shall not exceed $150,000, as adjusted for increases in the cost-of-living in accordance with Code section 401(a)(17)(B). The cost-of-living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to any determination period beginning in such calendar year. If a determination period consists of fewer than twelve (12) months, the annual Compensation limit is an amount equal to the otherwise applicable annual Compensation limit multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the short determination period, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). (ii) For Plan Years beginning prior to January 1, 1998, for all purposes hereunder except Section 12.1 (Code section 415 limit on Annual Additions) at the discretion of the Administrative Committee, "Compensation" of all Employees may be modified to INCLUDE elective contributions that are made by the Employer on behalf of its Employees that are not includable in gross income under Code sections 125, 402(e)(3), 402(h) and 403(b). For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 1997, for all purposes hereunder except Section 12.1 (Code section 415 limit on Annual Additions) Compensation may be modified to EXCLUDE elective Contributions that are made by the Employer on behalf of its Employees that are not includable in gross income under Code sections 125, 402(e)(3), 402(h) and 403(b). (iii) At the discretion of the Administrative Committee, Compensation for all Highly Compensated Employees may be modified to exclude any portion of the Compensation of some or all of such Highly Compensated Employees. (iv) "Compensation" shall include all amounts paid by a Related Company which has adopted the Plan. (b) Highly Compensated Employee Definition. For plan years beginning after December 31, 1996, for purposes of the Article 12, "Highly Compensated Employee" shall mean: (1) Any Employee who, during the current Plan Year or the 12-month period immediately preceding the current Plan Year: (i) Was at any time a 5% owner, as defined in Section 13.5(c)(1); 46 (ii) Received Compensation in excess of $80,000 (adjusted by the Adjustment Factor); and (iii) If the Administrative Committee elects the application of this clause for the preceding year and amends the Plan to so provide, was in the top twenty percent (20%) of Employees, ranked on the basis of Compensation for such Plan Year. (2) For purposes of this Section 12.7(b), a former Employee shall be treated as a Highly Compensated Employee if: (i) Such Employee was a Highly Compensated Employee when such Employee separated from service; or (ii) Such Employee was a Highly Compensated Employee at any time after attaining age 55. (3) For purposes of determining a Highly Compensated Employee under this Section 12.7(b), an Employee described in Code section 414(q)(8) shall be excluded. (4) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the Employer may elect to determine Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the "calendar year calculation election" set forth in the regulations promulgated by the Treasury Secretary. (5) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the determination of Highly Compensated Employees shall be made in accordance with Code section 414(q) and the regulations promulgated thereunder. ARTICLE XIII TOP HEAVY PROVISIONS 13.1 Top Heavy Determination. The Plan will be considered a Top Heavy Plan for the Plan Year if as of the last day of the preceding Plan Year (or in the case of the first Plan Year of the Plan, the last day of such Plan Year), (a) the value of the sum of the Accounts of Key Employees (as defined in Section 13.5) exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the value of the sum of the Accounts of all Participants and certain former participants in the Plan (the "60% Test") or (b) the Plan is part of a Required Aggregation Group (within the meaning of Code section 416(g)) and the Required Aggregation Group is a Top Heavy Group. In determining the value of Accounts of Participants for purposes of the 60% Test, any contributions to the Plan pursuant to Section 3.1 initiated by an Employee shall not, except to the extent provided by Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code section 416(g)(4), be taken into account. A Participant's Accounts for purposes of applying the 60% Test shall be measured as of the most recent Valuation Date occurring within a 12-month period ending on the determination date, and an adjustment in the amount of any contributions actually made after the Valuation Date but on or before the determination date. In the first Plan Year, such adjustment shall also include the amount of any contributions made after the determination date that are allocated as of a date in the first Plan Year. An individual's Accounts shall not be taken into 47 consideration for the purposes of applying the 60% Test if either (a) that individual was a Non-Key Employee with respect to the Plan for any Plan Year, but such individual was a Key Employee with respect to the Plan prior to a Plan Year in which the individual was a Non-Key Employee, or (b) that individual has not performed any services for the Employer at any time during the 5-year period ending on the determination date. Notwithstanding the results of the 60% Test, the Plan shall not be considered a Top Heavy Plan for any Plan Year in which the Plan is a part of a Required Aggregation Group or permissive aggregation group (within the meaning of section 416(g) of the Internal Revenue Code) which is not a Top Heavy Group. 13.2 Required Aggregation Group. "Required Aggregation Group" shall mean each plan of the Employer which has a Key Employee as a Participant and any other Employer plan (including a terminated plan of the Employer to the extent required by validly issued Treasury regulations) which enables a plan of the Employer in which a Key Employee is a participant to meet the requirements of Code section 401(a)(4) or 410. In applying the 60% Test to two or more plans, the 60% Test is applied to each plan and then the plans are aggregated by adding together the results as of each plan's determination date which falls within the same calendar year. 13.3 Top Heavy Group. "Top Heavy Group" shall mean any aggregation group, whether or not a Required Aggregation Group, which meets the 60% Test. In applying the 60% Test to two or more plans, the 60% Test is applied to each plan and then the plans are aggregated by adding together the results as of each plan's determination date which falls within the same calendar year. 13.4 Minimum Contribution for Top Heavy Plan. For any Plan Year in which the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan, an amount shall be credited to the Matching Contribution Account of each Participant who is not a Key Employee and who is eligible to share in this special minimum contribution for a Top Heavy Plan pursuant to paragraph (c) below which is equal to: (a) the lesser of: (1) The amount of all contributions (including Tax-Deferred Contributions, Matching Contributions and Profit Sharing Contributions) expressed as a percentage of compensation (as defined in Section 12.7(a)) which are credited to the Accounts with respect to such Plan Year of the Key Employee having the highest such percentage, or (2) Three percent (3%) of compensation (as defined in Section 12.7(a)). (b) reduced by the amount of the Matching Contribution and the Profit Sharing Contribution otherwise credited to the Accounts of each Employee who is not a Key Employee for such Plan Year. (c) All Participants who are not Key Employees and who are employed the last day of the Plan Year are eligible to share in this special minimum contribution for a Top Heavy Plan described in this Section 13.4. Participants who are not Key Employees are not required to complete 1000 hours of service or make 401(k) Contributions to be eligible for an allocation of the special minimum contribution for a Top Heavy Plan. 48 13.5 Key Employees. (a) The term "Key Employee" shall mean an Employee who, at any time during the Plan Year or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years, is: (1) An officer of the Employer having an annual compensation greater than fifty percent (50%) of the maximum dollar amount as set forth in Code section 415(b)(1)(A) (or such greater amount as may be permitted pursuant to regulations issued under Code section 415(d)(1)) for any such Plan Year; (2) One of ten Employees having annual compensation from the Employer of more than the maximum dollar amount set forth in Code section 415(b)(1)(A) and owning (or considered as owning within the meaning of Code section 318), the largest interests in the Employer; (3) A five percent (5%) owner of the Employer; or (4) A one percent (1%) owner of the Employer, having an annual compensation from the Employer of more than $150,000. (b) For purposes of paragraph (a)(1) above, no more than fifty (50) Employees (or, if fewer, the greater of three (3) Employees or ten percent (10%) of the Employees) shall be treated as officers. For purposes of paragraph (a)(2) above, if two Employees have the same interest in the Employer, the Employee having the greater Compensation from the Employer shall be treated as having a larger interest. (c) For purposes of this definition: (1) "5% owner" shall mean, in the case of a corporation, any person who owns (or who is considered as owning within the meaning of Code section 318) more than 5% of the outstanding stock of the corporation or stock possessing more than 5% of the total combined voting power of all stock of the corporation and, in the case of an Employer which is not a corporation, any person who owns more than 5% of the capital or profits interest in the Employer; and (2) A "1% owner" is any person who would be described in paragraph (1), above, if "1%" were substituted for "5%" each place it appears therein. (d) For purposes of paragraphs (a)(2) and (c) above, the rules of Code section 318 shall be modified as set forth in Code section 416(i)(1)(B)(iii). (e) A Key Employee shall also include the Beneficiary of a Key Employee. (f) A Key Employee shall include an individual who is either currently or was formerly employed by the Employer who meets the definition set forth in paragraph (a) above. 13.6 Non-Key Employee. "Non-Key Employee" shall mean any Employee who is not a Key Employee. 49 13.7 Top Heavy Vesting. (a) In any Plan Year in which the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan, the Accounts of a Participant shall vest in accordance with the following Top Heavy Vesting Schedule, except to the extent the regular vesting schedule set forth in Section 3.5 provides for a rate of vesting which is as rapid as or more rapid than the Top Heavy Vesting Schedule selected in this Section 13.7.
Year of Service for Percentage Vesting Purposes Vested ---------------- ------ less than 2 0 2 20 3 40 4 60 5 80 6 100
(b) For the purposes of determining a Participant's Years of Service for Vesting purposes applicable to the Top Heavy Vesting Schedule set forth in Section 13.7(a), all of the Participant's service with the Company or a Related Company shall be taken into account. (c) If the Plan becomes a Top Heavy Plan and subsequently ceases to be such, the Top Heavy Vesting Schedule set forth in Section 13.7(a) shall continue to apply in determining the vested percentage of the Matching Contribution Account for any Participant who had at least three Years of Service as of the last Plan Year in which the Plan was a Top Heavy Plan. For other Participants, said schedule shall apply only to their account balance in their Matching Contribution Account as of the last day of such Plan Year and Matching Contributions relating to subsequent Plan Years shall vest according to the vesting schedule set forth in Section 3.5. ARTICLE XIV TRUST FUND AND TRUSTEE 14.1 Trust Agreement. Contributions made by the Employer and all other assets of the Plan shall be held in Trust in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement. All benefits payable under the Plan shall be paid as provided for solely from the Trust, and the Employer assumes no liability or responsibility therefor. ARTICLE XV AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 15.1 Amendment. The Company reserves the right at any time or times to amend the Plan to any extent and in any manner that it may deem advisable. The Plan may be amended by a resolution adopted by a majority of the Board or, to the extent provided in Article 11, by a majority vote of the Administrative Committee. Upon such amendment, the Employer, the 50 Trustee, and all Participants, their Beneficiaries and all other persons having any interest in the Plan shall be bound by the Plan as amended. Such power includes the right, without limitation, to make retroactive amendments referred to in Code section 401(b) (as amended by section 1023 of ERISA). However, except as provided in Article 9 no amendment: (a) Shall cause or permit any part of the principal or income of the Trust to revert to the Employer or to be used for, or to be diverted to, any purpose other than the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries, except that: (1) A contribution made by the Employer by a mistake of fact shall be returned to the Employer within one year after the payment of such contribution to the extent permitted by section 403(c) of ERISA. A Tax-Deferred Contribution, or a portion thereof, returned to the Employer pursuant to this Section 15.1(a)(1) shall be returned to the Employee from whose Compensation the amount was withheld, as soon as administratively feasible, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the return of such contribution to the Employer. (2) If an Employer contribution is conditioned upon the deductibility of the contribution under Code section 404 or any successor provision thereto, then to the extent such contribution is disallowed, this paragraph shall not prohibit the return to the Employer of such contribution (to the extent disallowed) within one (1) year after such disallowance of the deduction. A Tax-Deferred Contribution, or a portion thereof, returned to the Employer pursuant to this Section 15.1(a)(2) shall be returned to the Employee from whose Compensation the amount was withheld, as soon as administratively feasible, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the return of such contribution to the Employer. (b) Shall change the duties or liabilities of the Trustee, or an Investment Manager appointed pursuant to the Trust Agreement without written consent to such amendment. (c) Shall retroactively reduce the benefits of any Participant or his or her Beneficiary accrued under the Plan by reason of contributions made by the Employer prior to the amendment except to the extent that such reduction is permitted by ERISA. (d) Be effective to the extent that it has the effect of decreasing a Participant's accrued benefit. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the amount credited to a Participant's Accounts may be reduced to the extent permitted under section 412(c)(8) of the Code. For purposes of this paragraph, a Plan amendment which has the effect of decreasing the amount credited to a Participant's Accounts or eliminating an optional form of benefit with respect to benefits attributable to Service prior to the effective date of such amendment, shall be treated as reducing an accrued benefit. 15.2 Termination. The Employer has established the Plan with the bona fide intention and expectation that the Plan will continue indefinitely and that it will be able to make its contributions indefinitely, but the Company and each Related Company shall be under no obligation to continue its contributions or to maintain the Plan for any given length of time and may, in its sole and absolute discretion, discontinue its contributions or terminate its sponsorship of the Plan in whole at any time without any liability whatsoever. The Company or any Related Company may terminate the Plan or its obligation to maintain and contribute to the Plan by 51 adoption of a resolution so providing pursuant to a majority vote of its Board of Directors. In the event of the complete or partial termination of the Plan or complete discontinuance of further contributions to the Plan by the Company or a Related Company, the full value of the Accounts of all Participants employed by the business terminating its sponsorship of the Plan or completely discontinuing its contributions to the Plan shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan. However, the Trust shall continue until all Participants' Accounts have been completely distributed to or for the benefit of the Participants in accordance with the Plan. ARTICLE XVI MISCELLANEOUS 16.1 No Employment Relationship Established by Plan. The adoption and maintenance of the Plan and Trust shall not be deemed to be a contract between the Employer and any Employee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to give any Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Employer or to interfere with the right of the Employer to discharge any Employee in its employ at any time, nor shall it be deemed to give the Employer the right to require any Employee to remain in its employ, nor shall it interfere with the Employee's right to terminate his or her employment at any time. 16.2 Plan Merger or Consolidation. (a) In no event shall the Plan be merged or consolidated with any other plan, nor shall there be any transfer of assets or liabilities from the Plan to any other plan, unless immediately after such merger, consolidation or transfer, each Participant's benefits, if such other plan were then to terminate, are at least equal to or greater than the benefits which the Participant would have been entitled to had the Plan been terminated immediately before such merger, consolidation, or transfer. (b) If the Employer merges or consolidates with or into a corporation, or if substantially all of the assets of the Employer shall be transferred to a corporation, the Plan hereby created shall terminate on the effective date of such merger, consolidation or transfer. However, if the surviving corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation, or the corporation to which the assets have been transferred, adopts the Plan, the Plan shall continue and said corporation shall succeed to all rights, powers and duties of the Employer under the Plan. The employment of any Employee who is continued in the employ of such successor corporation shall not be deemed to have been terminated for any purpose under the Plan. 16.3 Special Rule Relating to Veteran's Reemployment Rights Under ERISA. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits and service credit with respect to qualified military service will be provided in accordance with Code section 414(u). 16.4 Notices. All notices, statements and other communications from the Trustee, the Employer or the Company to an Employee, Participant, legal representative or designated Beneficiary required or permitted under the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given, 52 furnished, delivered or transmitted, as the case may be, when delivered to (or when mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid and addressed to) the Employee, Participant or Beneficiary at his address last appearing on the books of the Employer. 16.5 Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Plan shall continue to be fully effective. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Networks Associates, Inc. adopts the Plan effective as of the date set forth above. NETWORKS ASSOCIATES, INC. Dated: __________________ By: _____________________________ 53
