PREAMBLE

The SCI 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, originally effective as of July 1, 2000, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety. This amendment and restatement shall be effective as of January 1, 2009, but with respect only to Employees who retire, die, or otherwise terminate their employment on or after said date. The Plan, as amended and restated hereby, is intended to qualify as a profit-sharing plan under Code Section 401(a), and includes a cash or deferred arrangement that is intended to qualify under Code Section 401(k). The Plan is maintained for the exclusive benefit of eligible Employees and their Beneficiaries.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Participant's vested interest in his Account under the Plan on and after the effective date of this amendment and restatement shall be not less than his vested interest in his account on the day immediately preceding the effective date. In addition to the provisions otherwise set forth in this amendment and restatement of the Plan, the provisions in effect under the Plan prior to this amendment and restatement, as set forth in an Addendum to the Plan, shall continue in effect as if otherwise set forth in the Plan in the manner and for the periods set forth in the Addendum. Any provision of the Plan that restricted or limited withdrawals, loans, or other distributions, or otherwise required separate accounting with respect to any portion of a Participant's Account immediately prior to the later of the effective date of this amendment and restatement or the date this amendment and restatement is adopted and the elimination of which would adversely affect the qualification of the Plan under Code Section 401(a) shall continue in effect with respect to such portion of the Participant's Account as if fully set forth in this amendment and restatement.

DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

1.1 Plan Definitions

As used herein, the following words and phrases have the meanings hereinafter set forth, unless a different meaning is plainly required by the context:

A Participant's "Benefit Payment Date" means the first day on which all events have occurred which entitle the Participant to receive payment of his benefit.

A "Break in Service" means any "computation period" (as defined in Section 2.1 for purposes of determining years of Vesting Service) during which an Employee completes no more than 500 Hours of Service except that no Employee shall incur a Break in Service solely by reason of temporary absence from work not exceeding 12 months resulting from illness, layoff, or other cause if authorized in advance by an Employer or a Related Company pursuant to its uniform leave policy, if his employment shall not otherwise be terminated during the period of such absence.

includible in gross income, including, but not limited to, commissions paid to salesperson, compensation for services on the basis of a percentage of profits, commissions on insurance premiums, tips, bonuses, fringe benefits, and reimbursements or other expense allowances under a nonaccountable plan described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.62-2(c), (ii) in case of a Participant who is an employee within the meaning of Code Section 401(c)(1), the Participant's earned income, as described in Code Section 401(c)(2) and regulations issued thereunder, (iii) amounts described in Code Section 104(a)(3), 105(a), or 105(h), but only to the extent such amounts are includible in the gross income of the Participant, (iv) amounts paid or reimbursed by the Employer for moving expenses incurred by the Participant, but only to the extent it is reasonable to believe the amounts are not deductible by the Participant under Code Section 217, (v) the value of a non-statutory option (an option other than a statutory option, as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.421-1(b)) granted to the Participant by the Employer, but only to the extent that the value of the option is includible in the gross income of the Participant for the taxable year in which granted, (vi) amounts includible in the gross income of the Participant upon making an election described in Code Section 83(b), and (vii) amounts that are includible in the gross income of the Participant under the rules of Code Section 409A or 457(f)(1)(A) or because the amounts are constructively received by the Participant.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Compensation shall not include the following:

• reimbursements and other expense allowances, fringe benefits, moving expenses, deferred compensation, and welfare benefits.

Compensation includes (i) any elective deferral, as defined in Code Section 402(g)(3), (ii) any amount contributed or deferred by the Employer at the Participant's election which is not includable in the Participant's gross income by reason of Code Section 125, 132(f)(4), or 457, and (iii) certain contributions described in Code Section 414(h)(2) that are picked up by the employing unit and treated as employer contributions. Such amounts shall be included in Compensation only to the extent that they would otherwise have been included in Compensation as defined above.

If a Participant's employment terminates, Compensation does not include amounts received by the Participant following such termination except amounts paid within 2 ½ months after severance from employment if such amounts (1) would otherwise have been paid to the Participant in the course of his employment and are regular compensation for services during the Participant's regular working hours, compensation for services outside the Participant's regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential pay), commissions, bonuses, or other similar compensation or (2) are payments for accrued

bona fide sick, vacation or other leave, but only if the Participant would have been able to use such leave if his employment had continued.

For any Self-Employed Individual, Compensation for any period means his Earned Income for such period for services as a Covered Employee adjusted so that it is equivalent under regulations issued under Code Section 414(s) to Compensation for Participants who are not Self-Employed Individuals.

In no event, however, shall the Compensation of a Participant taken into account under the Plan for any Plan Year exceed the limit in effect under Code Section 401(a)(17) ($200,000 for Plan Years beginning in 2002, subject to adjustment annually as provided in Code Sections 401(a)(17)(B) and 415(d); provided, however, that the dollar increase in effect on January 1 of any calendar year, if any, is effective for Plan Years beginning in such calendar year). If the Compensation of a Participant is determined over a period of time that contains fewer than 12 calendar months, then the annual compensation limitation described above shall be adjusted with respect to that Participant by multiplying the annual compensation limitation in effect for the Plan Year by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of full months in the period and the denominator of which is 12; provided, however, that no proration is required for a Participant who is covered under the Plan for less than one full Plan Year if the formula for allocations is based on Compensation for a period of at least 12 months.

A "Contribution Period" means the period specified in Article VI for which Employer Contributions shall be made.

A "Covered Employee" means any Employee of an Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "Covered Employee" shall not include the following:

The term "Covered Employee" shall include any Employee who is covered by a collective bargaining agreement with the Employer only if and to the extent such collective bargaining agreement provides for coverage under the Plan.

"Disabled" means a Participant can no longer continue in the service of his employer because of a mental or physical condition that is likely to result in death or is expected to be of long-continued or indefinite duration. A Participant shall be considered Disabled only if:

• The Administrator determines he is Disabled based on a written certificate of a physician acceptable to it.

The "Earned Income" of an individual means the net earnings from self employment in the trade or business with respect to which the Plan is established, for which personal services of the individual are a material income producing factor. Net earnings will be determined without regard to items not included in gross income and the deductions allocable to such items. Net earnings are reduced by contributions by the individual's Employer to a qualified plan to the extent the contributions are deductible under Code

Plan#002                     4                     Contract#51344

Section 404. Net earnings shall be determined with regard to the deduction allowed to the taxpayer by Code Section 164(f).

"ERISA" means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time. Reference to a section of ERISA includes such section and any comparable section or sections of any future legislation that amends, supplements, or supersedes such section.

A "401(k) Contribution" means any amount contributed to the Plan on behalf of a Participant that the Participant could elect to receive in cash, but that the Participant elects, either affirmatively or pursuant to an automatic enrollment or passive increase provision, to have contributed to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of Article IV.

The "General Fund" means a Trust Fund maintained by the Trustee as required to hold and administer any assets of the Trust that are not allocated among any separate Investment Funds as may be provided in the Plan or the Trust Agreement. No General Fund shall be maintained if all assets of the Trust are allocated among separate Investment Funds.

A "Highly Compensated Employee" means any Covered Employee who is a "highly compensated active employee" as defined hereunder.

A "highly compensated active employee" includes any Covered Employee who performs services for an Employer or any Related Company during the Plan Year and who (i) was a five percent owner at any time during the Plan Year or the "look back year" or (ii) received "compensation" from the Employers and Related Companies during the "look back year" in excess of the dollar amount in effect under Code Section 414(q)(1)(B)(i) adjusted pursuant to Code Section 415(d) (e.g., $80,000 for "look back years" beginning in 1997, adjusted using as the base period the calendar quarter ending September 30, 1996).

The determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee hereunder shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 414(q) and regulations issued thereunder.

For purposes of this Section, contributions or benefits provided to a Leased Employee by the "leasing organization" that are attributable to services performed for the "recipient" shall be treated as provided by the "recipient".

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any person who performed services for a "recipient" pursuant to an agreement between the "recipient" and the "leasing organization" becomes a Covered Employee, all service performed by such person for the "recipient" shall be treated as employment with an Employer as an Employee, even if performed on less than a full-time basis, for less than a full year, or while an "excludable leased employee."

For purposes of this Article, the following terms have the following meanings:

A "computation period" for purposes of determining an Employee's years of Vesting Service means each Plan Year; provided, however, that if an Employee first completed an Hour of Service prior to the effective date of the Plan, a Plan Year shall not mean any short Plan Year beginning on the effective date of the Plan, if any, but shall mean any 12-consecutive-month period beginning before the effective date of the Plan that would have been a Plan Year if the Plan had been in effect.

The "continuous service" of an Employee means the continuous service credited to him in accordance with the provisions of this Article.

The "employment commencement date" of an employee means the date he first completes an Hour of Service, as described in Section 2.2(a).

A "maternity/paternity absence" means an Employee's absence from employment with an Employer or a Related Company because of the Employee's pregnancy, the birth of the Employee's child, the placement of a child with the Employee in connection with the Employee's adoption of the child, or the caring for the Employee's child immediately following the child's birth or adoption. An Employee's absence from employment will not be considered a maternity/paternity absence unless the Employee furnishes the Administrator such timely information as may reasonably be required to establish that the absence was for one of the purposes enumerated in this paragraph and to establish the number of days of absence attributable to such purpose.

The "reemployment commencement date" of an Employee means the first date following a "service break" on which he again completes an Hour of Service, as described in Section 2.2(a).

A "service break" with respect to an Employee means any 12-consecutive-month period beginning on the Employee's "severance date" and anniversaries of his "severance date" in which he does not complete an Hour of Service, as described in Section 2.2(a).

The "severance date" of an Employee means the earlier of (i) the date on which he retires, dies, or his employment with all Employers and Related Companies is otherwise terminated, or (ii) the first anniversary of the first date of a period during which he is absent from work with all Employers and Related Companies for any other reason; provided, however, that if he terminates employment with or is absent from work with all Employers and Related Companies on account of service with the armed forces of the United States, he shall not incur a "severance date" if he is eligible for reemployment rights under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 and he returns to work with an Employer or a Related Company within the period during which he retains such reemployment rights, but, if he does not return to work within such period, his "severance date" shall be the earlier of the date which is one year after his absence commenced or the last day of the period during which he retains such reemployment rights.

2.2 Crediting of Hours of Service

An Employee shall be credited with an Hour of Service for:

Plan#002                     9                     Contract#51344

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, each hour for which he is paid, or entitled to payment, by an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company on account of a period of time during which no duties are performed (irrespective of whether the employment relationship has terminated) due to vacation, holiday, illness, incapacity (including disability), lay-off, jury duty, military duty, or leave of absence.

(c) Each hour for which he would have been scheduled to work for an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company during the period that he is absent from work because of service with the armed forces of the United States provided he is eligible for reemployment rights under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 and returns to work with an Employer or a Related Company within the period during which he retains such reemployment rights; provided, however, that the same Hour of Service shall not be credited under paragraph (b) of this Section and under this paragraph (c).

(d) Each hour for which back pay, irrespective of mitigation of damages, is either awarded or agreed to by an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company; provided, however, that the same Hour of Service shall not be credited both under paragraph (a) or (b) or (c) of this Section, as the case may be, and under this paragraph (d); and provided, further, that the crediting of Hours of Service for back pay awarded or agreed to with respect to periods described in such paragraph (b) shall be subject to the limitations set forth therein and in Section 2.3.

(e) Solely for purposes of determining whether an Employee who is on a "maternity/paternity absence" has incurred a Break in Service for a "computation period", Hours of Service shall include those hours with which such Employee would otherwise have been credited but for such "maternity/paternity absence", or shall include eight Hours of Service for each day of "maternity/paternity absence" if the actual hours to be credited cannot be determined; except that not more than the minimum number of hours required to prevent a Break in Service shall be credited by reason of any "maternity/paternity absence"; provided, however, that any hours included as Hours of Service pursuant to this paragraph shall be credited to the "computation period" in which the absence from employment begins, if such Employee otherwise would incur a Break in Service in such "computation period", or, in any other case, to the immediately following "computation period".

(f) Solely for purposes of determining whether he has incurred a Break in Service, each hour for which he would have been scheduled to work for an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company during the period of time that he is absent from work on an approved leave of absence pursuant to the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; provided, however, that Hours of Service shall not be credited to an Employee under this paragraph if the Employee fails to return to employment with an Employer or a Related Company following such leave.

(c) A payment shall be deemed to be made by or due from an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company (i) regardless of whether such payment is made by or due from such employer directly or indirectly, through (among others) a trust fund or insurer to which any such employer contributes or pays premiums, and (ii) regardless of whether contributions made or due to such trust fund, insurer, or other entity are for the benefit of particular Employees or are on behalf of a group of Employees in the aggregate.

(d) No more than 501 Hours of Service shall be credited to an Employee on account of any single continuous period during which he performs no duties (whether or not such period occurs in a single "computation period"), unless no duties are performed due to service with the armed forces of the United States for which the Emlpoyee retains reemployment rights as provided in Section 2.2(c).

2.4 Department of Labor Rules

The rules set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Department of Labor Regulations Section 2530.200b-2, which relate to determining Hours of Service attributable to reasons other than the performance of duties and crediting Hours of Service to particular periods, are hereby incorporated into the Plan by reference.

Plan#002                     11                     Contract#51344

date", or (ii) the Employee's "service break" is less than the greater of 5 years or the Employee's period of "continuous service" determined as of his "severance date"; provided, however, that solely for purposes of applying this paragraph, if an Employee is on a "maternity/paternity absence" beyond the first anniversary of the first day of such absence, his "severance date" shall be the second anniversary of the first day of such "maternity/paternity absence".

Eligibility Service shall be credited in days.

(c) For purposes of determining the years of Vesting Service to be credited to an Employee, a "computation period" shall not include the "short computation period", but if an Employee completes at least 1,000 Hours of Service in the 12-consecutive-month period beginning on the

Plan#002                     12                     Contract#51344

first day of the "short computation period", such Employee shall be credited with a year of Vesting Service for such 12-consecutive-month period.

In no event shall an Employer deliver Matching Contributions to the Trustee on behalf of an Eligible Employee prior to the date the Eligible Employee performs the services with respect to which the Matching Contribution is being made, unless such pre-funding is to accommodate a bona fide administrative concern and is not for the principal purpose of accelerating deductions.

6.8 Allocation Requirements for Employer Contributions

An Eligible Employee shall be eligible to receive an allocation of Employer Contributions under this Article only if he satisfies any requirements specified in the applicable contribution Section and also meets the requirements of this Section.

(a) A person who was an Eligible Employee during a Contribution Period shall be eligible to receive an allocation of Nonelective Contributions for such Contribution Period only if he is employed as a Covered Employee on the last day of the Contribution Period.

(b) A person who was an Eligible Employee at any time during a Contribution Period shall be eligible to receive an allocation of Matching Contributions for such Contribution Period.

6.9 Vesting of Employer Contributions

A Participant's vested interest in his Nonelective and Matching Contributions Sub-Accounts shall be zero percent until the Participant has completed 3 years of Vesting Service at which time his vested interest in his Nonelective and Matching Contributions Sub-Accounts shall be 100 percent.

6.10 100% Vesting Events

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is employed by an Employer or a Related Company on his Normal Retirement Date, the date he becomes Disabled, or the date he dies, his vested interest in his full Employer Contributions Sub-Account shall be 100 percent, without regard to the number of his years of Vesting Service.

6.11 Election of Former Vesting Schedule

If the Sponsor adopts an amendment to the Plan that directly or indirectly affects the computation of a Participant's vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account, any Participant with three or more years of Vesting Service shall have a right to have his vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account continue to be determined under the vesting provisions in effect prior to the amendment rather than under the new vesting provisions, unless the vested interest of the Participant in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account under the Plan as amended is not at any time less than such vested interest determined without regard to the amendment. A Participant shall exercise his right under this Section by giving written notice of his exercise thereof to the Administrator within 60 days after the latest of (i) the date he receives notice of the amendment from the Administrator, (ii) the effective date of the amendment, or (iii) the date the amendment is adopted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant's vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account on the effective date of such an amendment shall not be less than his vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account immediately prior to the effective date of the amendment.

6.12 Forfeitures to Reduce Employer Contributions

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the amount of the Employer Contribution required under this Article for a Plan Year shall be reduced by the amount of any forfeitures occurring during the Plan Year or any prior Plan Year that are not used to pay Plan expenses and that are applied against Employer Contributions as provided in Article VII or XIV, as applicable.

ARTICLE VII

LIMITATIONS ON CONTRIBUTIONS

7.1 Definitions

For purposes of this Article, the following terms have the following meanings:

The "annual addition" with respect to a Participant for a "limitation year" means the sum of the following amounts allocated to the Participant for the "limitation year":

(a) all employer contributions allocated to the Participant's account under any qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company, including "elective contributions" and amounts attributable to forfeitures applied to reduce the employer's contribution obligation, but excluding "catch-up contributions";

(b) all "employee contributions" allocated to the Participant's account under any qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company or any qualified defined benefit plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company if separate accounts are maintained under the defined benefit plan with respect to such employee contributions;

(c) all forfeitures allocated to the Participant's account under any qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer or a Related Company;

(d) all amounts allocated to an individual medical benefit account, as described in Code Section 415(l)(2), established for the Participant as part of a pension or annuity plan maintained by the Employer or a Related Company;

(e) if the Participant is a key employee, as defined in Code Section 419A(d)(3), all amounts derived from contributions paid or accrued after December 31, 1985, in taxable years ending after that date, that are attributable to post-retirement medical benefits allocated to the Participant's separate account under a welfare benefit fund, as defined in Code Section 419(e), maintained by the Employer or a Related Company; and

(f) all allocations to the Participant under a simplified employee pension.

A "catch-up contribution" means any elective deferral, as defined in Code Section 414(v)(2)(C), that is treated as a catch-up contribution in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 414(v).

The "contribution percentage" with respect to an "eligible participant" for a particular Plan Year means the ratio of the sum of the included contributions, described below, to the "eligible participant's" "test compensation" for such Plan Year. Contributions made on behalf of an "eligible participant" for the Plan Year that are used in computing the "eligible participant's" "contribution percentage" include the following:

• Matching Contributions, except as specifically provided below; and

Plan#002                     24                     Contract#51344

• if elected by the Sponsor, 401(k) Contributions, including Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions, to the extent such 401(k) Contributions are not included in determining the "eligible participant's" "deferral percentage" for such Plan Year.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Matching Contributions are not included in computing an "eligible participant's" "contribution percentage" for a Plan Year:

• Matching Contributions that are forfeited because they relate to 401(k) Contributions that are distributed as "excess contributions", "excess deferrals", or because they exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit;

• contributions to the Plan made pursuant to Code Section 414(u) that are treated as Matching Contributions; and

• Matching Contributions that are forfeited because they relate to 401(k) Contributions that are re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions.

Matching Contributions in excess of 100% of the 401(k) Contributions of an "eligible participant" who is not a Highly Compensated Employee for a Plan Year shall not be used in computing such "eligible participant's" "contribution percentage" for the Plan Year to the extent that such Matching Contributions exceed the greater of (i) 5% of the "eligible participant's" "test compensation" for the Plan Year or (ii) the product of 2 times the Plan's "representative match rate" multiplied by the "eligible participant's" 401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year. The Plan's "representative match rate" is the lowest "match rate" of any "eligible participant" who is not a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year in either (i) the group consisting of half of all "eligible participants" who are not Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year or (ii) the group of all "eligible participants" who are not Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year and who are employed by the Employer or a Related Company on the last day of the Plan Year and who make 401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year, whichever results in the greater amount. An "eligible participant's "match rate" means the Matching Contributions made on behalf of the "eligible participant" for the Plan Year divided by the "eligible participant's" 401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year; provided, however, that if Matching Contributions are made at different rates for different levels of Compensation, the "match rate" shall be determined assuming 401(k) Contributions equal to 6% of "test compensation".

To be included in computing an "eligible participant's" "contribution percentage" for a Plan Year, contributions must be allocated to the "eligible participant's" Account as of a date within such Plan Year and must be made to the Plan before the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year to which the contributions relate. For Plan Years in which the prior year testing method is used in applying the nondiscrimination requirements applicable to Matching Contributions, contributions used in computing the "contribution percentage" for the "testing year" of a non-Highly Compensated Employee must be made before the last day of the Plan Year for which the test is being applied.

If an Employer elects to change from the current year testing method to the prior year testing method, the following shall not be included in computing a non-Highly Compensated Employee's "contribution percentage" for the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year in which the prior year testing method is first effective:

• 401(k) Contributions that were included in computing the "eligible participant's" "contribution percentage" under the current year method for such immediately preceding Plan Year.

Plan#002                     25                     Contract#51344

The determination of an "eligible participant's" "contribution percentage" shall be made after any reduction required to satisfy the Code Section 415 limitations is made as provided in this Article VII and shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.

The "deferral percentage" with respect to an Eligible Employee for a particular Plan Year means the ratio of the sum of the included contributions, described below, to the Eligible Employee's "test compensation" for such Plan Year. Contributions made on behalf of an Eligible Employee for the Plan Year that are used in computing the Eligible Employee's "deferral percentage" include the following:

• 401(k) Contributions, except as specifically provided below.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following 401(k) Contributions are not included in computing an Eligible Employee's "deferral percentage" for a Plan Year:

• 401(k) Contributions that are distributed to a non-Highly Compensated Employee in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 because they exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit;

• contributions made to the Plan pursuant to Code Section 414(u) that are treated as 401(k) Contributions;

• Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions, except to the extent the Eligible Employee's 401(k) Contributions are re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions as a result of a failure to satisfy the nondiscrimination requirements applicable to 401(k) Contributions; and

• 401(k) Contributions that are included in determining an Eligible Employee's "contribution percentage" for the Plan Year.

To be included in computing an Eligible Employee's "deferral percentage" for a Plan Year, contributions must be allocated to the Eligible Employee's Account as of a date within such Plan Year and be made to the Plan before the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year to which the contributions relate. For Plan Years in which the prior year testing method is used in applying the nondiscrimination requirements applicable to 401(k) Contributions, contributions used in computing the "deferral percentage" for the "testing year" of a non-Highly Compensated Employee must be made before the last day of the Plan Year for which the test is being applied.

If an Employer elects to change from the current year testing method to the prior year testing method, the following shall not be included in computing a non-Highly Compensated Employee's "deferral percentage" for the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year in which the prior year testing method is first effective:

• 401(k) Contributions that were included in computing the Eligible Employee's "contribution percentage" under the current year method for such immediately preceding Plan Year.

The determination of an Eligible Employee's "deferral percentage" shall be made after any reduction required to satisfy the Code Section 415 limitations is made as provided in this Article VII and shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.

An "elective contribution" means any employer contribution made to a plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company on behalf of a Participant in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to his election (whether such election is an active election or a passive election) to defer under any qualified CODA as described in Code Section 401(k), any simplified employee pension cash or deferred arrangement as

Plan#002                     26                     Contract#51344

described in Code Section 402(h)(1)(B), or any plan as described in Code Section 501(c)(18), and any contribution made on behalf of the Participant by an Employer or a Related Company for the purchase of an annuity contract under Code Section 403(b) pursuant to a salary reduction agreement. For purposes of applying the limitations described in this Article VII, the term "elective contribution" includes designated Roth contributions and excludes "catch-up contributions".

An "elective 401(k) contribution" means any employer contribution made to a plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company on behalf of a Participant in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to his election (whether such election is an active election or a passive election) to defer under any qualified CODA as described in Code Section 401(k) including a designated Roth contribution. For purposes of applying the limitations described in this Article VII, the term "elective 401(k) contribution" excludes "catch-up contributions".

An "eligible participant" means any Eligible Employee who is eligible to have 401(k) Contributions made on his behalf (if 401(k) Contributions are taken into account in determining "contribution percentages"), or to participate in the allocation of Matching Contributions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Employees shall not be included as "eligible participants":

• Eligible Employees who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement between their Employer and employee representatives if retirement benefits were the subject of good faith bargaining.

An "employee contribution" means any employee after-tax contribution allocated to an Eligible Employee's account under any qualified plan of an Employer or a Related Company.

An "excess aggregate contribution" means any contribution made to the Plan on behalf of a Participant that exceeds the limitations described in Section 7.7.

An "excess contribution" means any contribution made to the Plan on behalf of a Participant that exceeds the limitations described in Section 7.4.

An "excess deferral" with respect to a Participant means that portion of a Participant's 401(k) Contributions, excluding Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions, for his taxable year that, when added to amounts deferred for such taxable year under other plans or arrangements described in Code Section 401(k), 408(k), or 403(b) (other than any such plan or arrangement that is maintained by an Employer or a Related Company and excluding any "catch-up contributions"), would exceed the dollar limit imposed under Code Section 402(g) as in effect on January 1 of the calendar year in which such taxable year begins and is includible in the Participant's gross income under Code Section 402(g).

The "415 compensation" of a Participant for any "limitation year" means the Participant's remuneration for services, including (A) his wages, salaries, fees for professional service, and all other amounts received (without regard to whether such amounts are paid in cash) for personal services actually rendered in the course of employment with an Employer or a Related Company, to the extent the amounts would have been received and includible in gross income, including, but not limited to, commissions paid to salesperson, compensation for services on the basis of a percentage of profits, commissions on insurance premiums, tips, bonuses, fringe benefits, and reimbursements or other expense allowances under a nonaccountable plan described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.62-2(c), (B) in case of a Participant who is an employee within the meaning of Code Section 401(c)(1), the Participant's earned income, as described in Code Section 401(c)(2) and regulations issued thereunder, (C) amounts described in Code Section 104(a)(3), 105(a), or 105(h), but only to the extent such amounts are includible in the gross

Plan#002                     27                     Contract#51344

income of the Participant, (D) amounts paid or reimbursed by the Employer or a Related Company for moving expenses incurred by the Participant, but only to the extent it is reasonable to believe the amounts are not deductible by the Participant under Code Section 217, (E) the value of a non-statutory option (an option other than a statutory option, as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.421-1(b)) granted to the Participant by the Employer or a Related Company, but only to the extent that the value of the option is includible in the gross income of the Participant for the taxable year in which granted, (F) amounts includible in the gross income of the Participant upon making an election described in Code Section 83(b), and (G) amounts that are includible in the gross income of the Participant under the rules of Code Section 409A or 457(f)(1)(A) or because the amounts are constructively received by the Participant. "415 compensation" excludes (i) contributions (other than elective contributions described in Code Section 402(e)(3), 408(k)(6), 408(p)(2)(A)(i), or 457(b)) made on behalf of the Participant by an Employer or a Related Company to a plan of deferred compensation (including a simplified employee pension described in Code Section 408(k) or a simple retirement account described in Code Section 408(p)), whether or not qualified, to the extent that, before application of the limitations of Code Section 415 to such plan, the contributions are not includible in the gross income of the Participant for the taxable year in which contributed, (ii) any distributions from a plan of deferred compensation, whether or not qualified, (except amounts received pursuant to an unfunded non-qualified plan in the year such amounts are includible in the gross income of the Participant), (iii) amounts realized from the exercise of a non-qualified option or when restricted stock or other property held by the Participant either becomes freely transferable or is no longer subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, (iv) amounts received from the sale, exchange or other disposition of stock acquired under a qualified stock option, (v) any other amounts that receive special tax benefits, such as premiums for group term life insurance (but only to the extent that the premiums are not includible in the gross income of the Participant and are not salary reduction amounts that are described in Code Section 125), and (vi) other items that are similar to the items listed in (i) through (v) above.

Effective for "limitation years" beginning in 2005 and thereafter, "415 compensation" does not include amounts paid to a Participant following severance from employment unless such amounts are paid within 2 ½ months of the Participant's severance from employment and (i) would otherwise have been paid to the Participant in the course of his employment and are regular compensation for services during the Participant's regular working hours, compensation for services outside the Participant's regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential pay), commissions, bonuses, or other similar compensation or (ii) are payments for accrued bona fide sick, vacation or other leave, but only if the Participant would have been able to use such leave if his employment had continued.

"415 compensation" also includes (i) any elective deferral, as defined in Code Section 402(g)(3) and (ii) any amount contributed or deferred by the Employer or Related Company at the Participant's election which is not includable in the Participant's gross income by reason of Code Section 125, 132(f)(4), or 457.

In no event, however, shall the "415 compensation" of a Participant taken into account under the Plan for any "limitation year" exceed the limit in effect under Code Section 401(a)(17) ($220,000 for "limitation years" beginning in 2006, subject to adjustment annually as provided in Code Sections 401(a)(17)(B) and 415(d); provided, however, that the dollar increase in effect on January 1 of any calendar year, if any, is effective for "limitation years" beginning in such calendar year). If the "415 compensation" of a Participant is determined over a period of time that contains fewer than 12 calendar months, then the annual compensation limitation described above shall be adjusted with respect to that Participant by multiplying the annual compensation limitation in effect for the Plan Year by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of full months in the period and the denominator of which is 12; provided, however, that no proration is required for a Participant who is covered under the Plan for fewer than 12 months.

Plan#002                     28                     Contract#51344

The "gap period" means the period between the close of the Plan Year in which "excess contributions" were made and the date the contributions are distributed.

A "limitation year" means the Plan Year.

A "matching contribution" means any employer contribution allocated to an Eligible Employee's account under any plan of an Employer or a Related Company solely on account of "elective contributions" made on his behalf or "employee contributions" made by him.

A "qualified matching contribution" means any employer contribution allocated to an Eligible Employee's account under any plan of an Employer or a Related Company solely on account of "elective contributions" made on his behalf or "employee contributions" made by him that is a qualified matching contribution as defined in regulations issued under Code Section 401(k), is nonforfeitable when made, and is distributable only as permitted in regulations issued under Code Section 401(k).

A "qualified nonelective contribution" means any employer contribution allocated to an Eligible Employee's account under any plan of an Employer or a Related Company that the Participant could not elect instead to receive in cash until distributed from the Plan, that is a qualified nonelective contribution as defined in Code Sections 401(k) and 401(m) and regulations issued thereunder, is nonforfeitable when made, and is distributable (other than for hardships) only as permitted in regulations issued under Code Section 401(k).

The "test compensation" of an Eligible Employee or "eligible participant" for any Plan Year means his Compensation as defined in Article I, unless the Administrator elects to substitute a different definition of compensation that satisfies the requirements of Code Section 414(s).

If elected by the Administrator with respect to a Plan Year, "test compensation" may exclude amounts earned by an individual during the Plan Year, but while the individual was not an Eligible Employee or "eligible participant".

In no event, shall the "test compensation" of a Participant taken into account under the Plan for any Plan Year exceed the limit in effect under Code Section 401(a)(17) ($220,000 for Plan Years beginning in 2006, subject to adjustment annually as provided in Code Sections 401(a)(17)(B) and 415(d); provided, however, that the dollar increase in effect on January 1 of any calendar year, if any, is effective for Plan Years beginning in such calendar year).

The "testing year" under the current year testing method means the Plan Year being tested. An Employer that has elected the current year testing method can change its election and elect the prior year testing method for a subsequent Plan Year only if either (1) the Plan has used the current year testing method for each of the preceding 5 Plan Years (or, if fewer, the number of Plan Years the Plan has been in existence) or (2) as a result of a merger or acquisition described in Code Section 410(b)(6)(C)(i), the Employer maintains both a plan using the prior year testing method and a plan using the current year testing method and the change is made within the transition period described in Code Section 410(b)(6)(C)(ii).

7.2 Code Section 402(g) Limit

In no event shall the amount of the 401(k) Contributions, excluding Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions, made on behalf of an Eligible Employee for his taxable year, when aggregated with any "elective contributions" made on behalf of the Eligible Employee under any other plan of an Employer or a Related Company for his taxable year, exceed the dollar limit imposed under Code Section 402(g), as in effect on January 1 of the calendar year in which such taxable year begins. In the event that the Administrator determines that

Plan#002                     29                     Contract#51344

the reduction percentage elected by an Eligible Employee will result in his exceeding the Code Section 402(g) limit, the Administrator may adjust the reduction authorization of such Eligible Employee by reducing the percentage of his 401(k) Contributions to such smaller percentage that will result in the Code Section 402(g) limit not being exceeded. If the Administrator determines that the 401(k) Contributions made on behalf of an Eligible Employee would exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit for his taxable year, the 401(k) Contributions for such Participant shall be automatically suspended for the remainder, if any, of such taxable year.

If an Employer notifies the Administrator that the Code Section 402(g) limit has nevertheless been exceeded by an Eligible Employee for his taxable year, the 401(k) Contributions that, when aggregated with "elective contributions" made on behalf of the Eligible Employee under any other plan of an Employer or a Related Company, would exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be either re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions or distributed to the Eligible Employee no later than the April 15 immediately following such taxable year.

Any 401(k) Contributions that are distributed to an Eligible Employee in accordance with this Section shall not be taken into account in determining the Eligible Employee's "deferral percentage" for the "testing year" in which the 401(k) Contributions were made, unless the Eligible Employee is a Highly Compensated Employee.

If excess 401(k) Contributions are distributed to a Participant or are re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions in accordance with this Section, Matching Contributions that are attributable solely to the re-characterized or distributed 401(k) Contributions, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be forfeited by the Participant no earlier than the date on which re-characterization or distribution of 401(k) Contributions pursuant to this Section occurs and no later than the last day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Matching Contributions were made.

7.3 Distribution of "Excess Deferrals"

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant notifies the Administrator in writing no later than the March 1 following the close of the Participant's taxable year that "excess deferrals" have been made on his behalf under the Plan for such taxable year, the "excess deferrals", plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be distributed to the Participant no later than the April 15 immediately following such taxable year.

Any 401(k) Contributions that are distributed to a Participant in accordance with this Section shall nevertheless be taken into account in determining the Participant's "deferral percentage" for the "testing year" in which the 401(k) Contributions were made.

If 401(k) Contributions are distributed to a Participant in accordance with this Section, Matching Contributions that are attributable solely to the distributed 401(k) Contributions, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be forfeited by the Participant no earlier than the date on which distribution of 401(k) Contributions pursuant to this Section occurs and no later than the last day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Matching Contributions were made.

7.4 Limitation on 401(k) Contributions of Highly Compensated Employees - ADP Test

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the 401(k) Contributions made with respect to a Plan Year on behalf of Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees may not result in an average "deferral percentage" for such Eligible Employees that exceeds the greater of:

Plan#002                     30                     Contract#51344

(a) a percentage that is equal to 125 percent of the average "deferral percentage" for all other Eligible Employees for the "testing year"; or

(b) a percentage that is not more than 200 percent of the average "deferral percentage" for all other Eligible Employees for the "testing year" and that is not more than two percentage points higher than the average "deferral percentage" for all other Eligible Employees for the "testing year",

unless the "excess contributions", determined as provided in the following Section are re-characterized or distributed as provided in Section 7.6.

If the Plan provides that Employees are eligible to make 401(k) Contributions before they have satisfied the minimum age and service requirements under Code Section 410(a)(1)(A) and applies Code Section 410(b)(4)(B) in determining whether the cash or deferred arrangement meets the requirements of Code Section 410(b)(1), the Administrator may apply the limitations described above either:

(c) by comparing the average "deferral percentage" of all Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year to the average "deferral percentage" for the "testing year" of all other Eligible Employees who have satisfied the minimum age and service requirements under Code Section 410(a)(1)(A); or

(d) separately with respect to Eligible Employees who have not satisfied the minimum age and service requirements under Code Section 410(a)(1)(A) and Eligible Employees who have satisfied such minimum age and service requirements.

In order to assure that the limitation contained herein is not exceeded with respect to a Plan Year, the Administrator is authorized to set a limit on the percentage of Compensation that a Highly Compensated Employee may contribute to the Plan as 401(k) Contributions for the Plan Year, to suspend completely further 401(k) Contributions on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees for any remaining portion of a Plan Year, or to adjust the projected "deferral percentages" of Highly Compensated Employees by reducing the percentage of their deferral elections for any remaining portion of a Plan Year to such smaller percentage that will result in the limitation set forth above not being exceeded. If the Administrator limits the 401(k) Contributions that may be made by Highly Compensated Employees for a Plan Year, the Administrator shall communicate that limit as soon as reasonably practicable. In the event of a suspension or reduction, Highly Compensated Employees affected thereby shall be notified of the reduction or suspension as soon as possible. An affected Highly Compensated Employee may be entitled to make a new election for the following Plan Year.

In determining the "deferral percentage" for any Eligible Employee who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year, "elective 401(k) contributions", "qualified nonelective contributions", and "qualified matching contributions" (to the extent that "qualified nonelective contributions" and "qualified matching contributions" are taken into account in determining "deferral percentages") made to his accounts under any plan of an Employer or a Related Company that is not mandatorily disaggregated pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.410(b)-7(c), as modified by Section 1.401(k)-1(b)(4) (without regard to the prohibition on aggregating plans with inconsistent testing methods contained in Section 1.401(k)-1(b)(4)((iii)(B) and the prohibition on aggregating plans with different plan years contained in Section 1.410(b)-7(d)(5)), shall be treated as if all such contributions were made to the Plan; provided, however, that if such a plan has a plan year different from the Plan Year, any such contributions made to the Highly Compensated Employee's accounts under the other plan during the Plan Year shall be treated as if such contributions were made to the Plan.

Plan#002                     31                     Contract#51344

If one or more plans of an Employer or Related Company are aggregated with the Plan for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) or 410(b), then "deferral percentages" under the Plan shall be calculated as if the Plan and such one or more other plans were a single plan. Pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(k)-1(b)(4)(v), an Employer may elect to calculate "deferral percentages" aggregating ESOP and non-ESOP plans. In addition, an Employer may elect to calculate "deferral percentages" aggregating bargained plans maintained for different bargaining units, provided that such aggregation is done on a reasonable basis and is reasonably consistent from year to year. Plans may be aggregated under this paragraph only if they have the same plan year and utilize the same testing method to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 401(k).

The Administrator shall maintain records sufficient to show that the limitation contained in this Section was not exceeded with respect to any Plan Year and the amount of the "qualified nonelective contributions" and/or "qualified matching contributions" taken into account in determining "deferral percentages" for any Plan Year.

7.5 Determination and Allocation of "Excess Contributions" Among Highly Compensated Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the limitation on 401(k) Contributions described in the preceding Section is exceeded in any Plan Year, the Administrator shall first determine the dollar amount of the excess by reducing the dollar amount of the contributions included in determining the "deferral percentage" of Highly Compensated Employees in order of their "deferral percentages" as follows:

(a) The highest "deferral percentage(s)" shall be reduced to the greater of (1) the maximum "deferral percentage" that satisfies the limitation on 401(k) Contributions described in the preceding Section or (2) the next highest "deferral percentage".

(b) If the limitation on 401(k) Contributions described in the preceding Section would still be exceeded after application of the provisions of paragraph (a), the Administrator shall continue reducing "deferral percentages" of Highly Compensated Employees, continuing with the next highest "deferral percentage", in the manner provided in paragraph (a) until the limitation on 401(k) Contributions described in the preceding Section is satisfied.

The determination of the amount of "excess contributions" hereunder shall be made after 401(k) Contributions and "excess deferrals" have been re-characterized or distributed pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3, if applicable.

After determining the dollar amount of the "excess contributions" that have been made to the Plan, the Administrator shall then allocate such excess among Highly Compensated Employees in order of the dollar amount of their "deferral percentages" as follows:

(c) The contributions included in the "deferral percentage(s)" of the Highly Compensated Employee(s) with the largest dollar amount of "deferral percentage" for the Plan Year shall be reduced by the dollar amount of the excess (with such dollar amount being allocated equally among all such Highly Compensated Employees), but not below the dollar amount of the "deferral percentage" of the Highly Compensated Employee(s) with the next highest dollar amount of "deferral percentage" for the Plan Year.

Plan#002                     32                     Contract#51344

(d) If the excess has not been fully allocated after application of the provisions of paragraph (c), the Administrator shall continue reducing the contributions included in the "deferral percentages" of Highly Compensated Employees, continuing with the Highly Compensated Employees with the largest remaining dollar amount of "deferral percentages" for the Plan Year, in the manner provided in paragraph (c) until the entire excess determined above has been allocated.

7.6 Treatment of "Excess Contributions"

Except to the extent that a Highly Compensated Employee's "excess contributions" may be re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions, "excess contributions" allocated to a Highly Compensated Employee pursuant to the preceding Section, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be distributed to the Highly Compensated Employee prior to the end of the next succeeding Plan Year. If such excess amounts are distributed more than 2 1/2 months after the last day of the Plan Year for which the excess occurred, an excise tax may be imposed under Code Section 4979 on the Employer maintaining the Plan with respect to such amounts.

If excess 401(k) Contributions are distributed to a Participant or are re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions in accordance with this Section, Matching Contributions that are attributable solely to the re-characterized or distributed 401(k) Contributions, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be forfeited by the Participant no earlier than the date on which re-characterization or distribution of 401(k) Contributions pursuant to this Section occurs and no later than the last day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Matching Contributions were made.

7.7 Limitation on Contributions of Highly Compensated Employees - ACP Test

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Matching Contributions made with respect to a Plan Year on behalf of "eligible participants" who are Highly Compensated Employees may not result in an average "contribution percentage" for such "eligible participants" that exceeds the greater of:

(a) a percentage that is equal to 125 percent of the average "contribution percentage" for all other "eligible participants" for the "testing year"; or

(b) a percentage that is not more than 200 percent of the average "contribution percentage" for all other "eligible participants" for the "testing year" and that is not more than two percentage points higher than the average "contribution percentage" for all other "eligible participants" for the "testing year",

unless the "excess aggregate contributions", determined as provided in the following Section are forfeited or distributed as provided in Section 7.8.

If the Plan provides that Employees are eligibleto receive Matching Contributions before they have satisfied the minimum age and service requirements under Code Section 410(a)(1)(A) and applies Code Section 410(b)(4)(B) in determining whether the portion of the Plan subject to Code Section 401(m) meets the requirements of Code Section 410(b)(1), the Administrator may apply the limitations described above either:

(c) by comparing the average "contribution percentage" of all "eligible participants" who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year to the average "contribution percentage" for the "testing year" of all other "eligible participants" who have satisfied the minimum age and service requirements under Code Section 410(a)(1)(A); or

Plan#002                     33                     Contract#51344

(d) separately with respect to "eligible participants" who have not satisfied the minimum age and service requirements under Code Section 410(a)(1)(A) and "eligible participants" who have satisfied such minimum age and service requirements.

In determining the "contribution percentage" for any "eligible participant" who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year, "matching contributions", "employee contributions", "qualified nonelective contributions", and "elective 401(k) contributions" (to the extent that "qualified nonelective contributions" and "elective 401(k) contributions" are taken into account in determining "contribution percentages") made to his accounts under any plan of an Employer or a Related Company that is not mandatorily disaggregated pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.410(b)-7(c), as modified by Section 1.401(m)-1(b)(4) (without regard to the prohibition on aggregating plans with inconsistent testing methods contained in Section 1.401(m)-1(b)(4)((iii)(B) and the prohibition on aggregating plans with different plan years contained in Section 1.410(b)-7(d)(5)), shall be treated as if all such contributions were made to the Plan; provided, however, that if such a plan has a plan year different from the Plan Year, any such contributions made to the Highly Compensated Employee's accounts under the other plan during the Plan Year shall be treated as if such contributions were made to the Plan.

If one or more plans of an Employer or a Related Company are aggregated with the Plan for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) or 410(b), the "contribution percentages" under the Plan shall be calculated as if the Plan and such one or more other plans were a single plan. Pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(m)-1(b)(4)(v), an Employer may elect to calculate "contribution percentages" aggregating ESOP and non-ESOP plans. In addition, an Employer may elect to calculate "contribution percentages" aggregating bargained plans maintained for different bargaining units, provided that such aggregation is done on a reasonable basis and is reasonably consistent from year to year. Plans may be aggregated under this paragraph only if they have the same plan year and utilize the same testing method to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 401(m).

The Administrator shall maintain records sufficient to show that the limitation contained in this Section was not exceeded with respect to any Plan Year and the amount of the "elective 401(k) contributions", "qualified nonelective contributions", and/or "qualified matching contributions" taken into account in determining "contribution percentages" for any Plan Year.

7.8 Determination and Allocation of Excess Aggregate Contributions Among Highly Compensated Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the limitation described in the preceding Section is exceeded in any Plan Year, the Administrator shall first determine the dollar amount of the excess by reducing the dollar amount of the contributions included in determining the "contribution percentage" of Highly Compensated Employees in order of their "contribution percentages", as follows:

(a) The highest "contribution percentage(s)" shall be reduced to the greater of (1) the maximum "contribution percentage" that satisfies the limitation described in the preceding Section or (2) the next highest "contribution percentage".

(b) If the limitation described in the preceding Section would still be exceeded after application of the provisions of paragraph (a), the Administrator shall continue reducing "contribution percentages" of Highly Compensated Employees, continuing with the next highest "contribution percentage", in the manner provided in paragraph (a) until the limitation described in the preceding Section is satisfied.

Plan#002                     34                     Contract#51344

The determination of the amount of the "excess aggregate contributions" shall be made after application ofSections 7.2, 7.3, and 7.6, if applicable.

After determining the dollar amount of the "excess aggregate contributions" that have been made to the Plan, the Administrator shall next allocate such excess among Highly Compensated Employees in order of the dollar amount of their "contribution percentages" as follows:

(c) The contributions included in the "contribution percentages" of the Highly Compensated Employee(s) with the largest dollar amount of "contribution percentage" shall be reduced by the dollar amount of the excess (with such dollar amount being allocated equally among all such Highly Compensated Employees), but not below the dollar amount of the "contribution percentage" of the Highly Compensated Employee(s) with the next highest dollar amount of "contribution percentage" for the Plan Year.

(d) If the excess has not been fully allocated after application of the provisions of paragraph (c), the Administrator shall continue reducing the contributions included in the "contribution percentages" of Highly Compensated Employees, continuing with the Highly Compensated Employees with the largest remaining dollar amount of "contribution percentages" for the Plan Year, in the manner provided in paragraph (c) until the entire excess determined above has been allocated.

7.9 Treatment of "Excess Aggregate Contributions"

"Excess aggregate contributions" allocated to a Highly Compensated Employee pursuant to the preceding Section, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be forfeited, to the extent forfeitable, or distributed to the Participant prior to the end of the next succeeding Plan Year as hereinafter provided. If such excess amounts are forfeited or distributed more than 2 1/2 months after the last day of the Plan Year for which the excess occurred, an excise tax of 10% will be imposed under Code Section 4979 on the Employer maintaining the Plan with respect to such amounts.

Excess amounts shall be forfeited or distributed from a Highly Compensated Employee's Account in the order prescribed by the Administrator, which order shall be uniform with respect to all Highly Compensated Employees and non-discriminatory.

"Excess aggregate contributions" that are vested shall in all cases be distributed. Excess Matching Contributions that are not vested shall be forfeited. Any amounts forfeited with respect to a Participant pursuant to this Section shall be treated as a forfeiture under the Plan no later than the last day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the Matching Contributions were made.

7.10 Treatment of Forfeited Matching Contributions

Any Matching Contributions that are forfeited pursuant to the provisions of the preceding Sections of this Article shall be applied first against Plan expenses for such Plan Year and then against the Employers' contribution obligations for the Plan Year.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, should the amount of all such forfeitures for any Plan Year exceed the amount of the Employers' contribution obligations for the Plan Year, the excess amount of such forfeitures shall be held unallocated in a suspense account and shall for all Plan purposes be applied against Plan expenses and the Employers' contribution obligations for the following Plan Year.

Plan#002                     35                     Contract#51344

7.11 Determination of Income or Loss

The income or loss attributable to contributions in excess of a limit described above that are distributed pursuant to this Article shall be determined by multiplying the income or loss for the preceding Plan Year and the "gap period" attributable to the Employee's Sub-Account to which the excess was credited by a fraction, the numerator of which is the excess amount contributed to such Sub-Account on the Employee's behalf for the preceding Plan Year and the denominator of which is (a) the balance of the Sub-Account on the first day of the preceding Plan Year, plus (b) the contributions made to such Sub-Account for the preceding Plan Year and the "gap period". Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, at the election of the Administrator, income for the "gap period" may be calculated either under the fractional method set forth above or as the product of ten percent of the amount of the income determined under the fractional method set forth above for the Plan Year multiplied by the number of calendar months that elapse during the "gap period". For purposes of determining the number of calendar months that elapse during the "gap period", a distribution that is made on or before the 15th day of the month shall be treated as having been made on the last day of the preceding calendar month and a distribution that is made after the 15th day of the month shall be treated as having been made on the first day of the succeeding calendar month.

7.12 Code Section 415 Limitations on Crediting of Contributions and Forfeitures

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the "annual addition" with respect to a Participant for a "limitation year" shall in no event exceed the lesser of (i) the maximum dollar amount permitted under Code Section 415(c)(1)(A), adjusted as provided in Code Section 415(d) (e.g., $42,000 for the "limitation year" ending in 2005) or (ii) 100 percent of the Participant's "415 compensation" for the "limitation year"; provided, however, that the limit in clause (i) shall be pro rated for any short "limitation year". The limit in clause (ii) shall not apply to any contribution for medical benefits within the meaning of Code Section 401(h) or 419A(f)(2) after separation from service which is otherwise treated as an "annual addition" under Code Section 419A(d)(2) or 415(l)(1). A Participant's 401(k) Contributions may be re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions and excluded from the Participant's "annual additions" for the "limitation year" to satisfy the preceding limitation.

If the "annual addition" to the Account of a Participant in any "limitation year" would otherwise exceed the amount that may be applied for his benefit under the limitation contained in this Section, the limitation shall be satisfied by reducing contributions made to the Participant's Account to the extent necessary in the following order:

401(k) Contributions made on behalf of the Participant for the "limitation year" that have not been matched, if any, shall be reduced.

401(k) Contributions made on behalf of the Participant for the "limitation year" that have been matched, if any, and the Matching Contributions attributable thereto shall be reduced pro rata.

Nonelective Contributions otherwise allocable to the Participant's Account for the "limitation year", if any, shall be reduced.

The amount of any reduction of 401(k) Contributions (plus any income attributable thereto) shall be returned to the Participant. The amount of any reduction of Employer Contributions shall be deemed a forfeiture for the "limitation year".

Amounts deemed to be forfeitures under this Section shall be held unallocated in a suspense account established for the "limitation year" and shall be applied against the Employer's contribution obligation for

Plan#002                     36                     Contract#51344

the next following "limitation year" (and succeeding "limitation years", as necessary). If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a "limitation year", all amounts in the suspense account must be applied against the Employer's contribution obligation before any further contributions that would constitute "annual additions" may be made to the Plan.

For purposes of this Article, excesses shall result only from the allocation of forfeitures, a reasonable error in estimating a Participant's annual "415 compensation", a reasonable error in determining the amount of "elective contributions" that may be made with respect to any Participant under the limits of Code Section 415, or other limited facts and circumstances that justify the availability of the provisions set forth above.

7.13 Application of Code Section 415 Limitations Where Participant is Covered Under Other Qualified Defined Contribution Plan

If a Participant is covered by any other qualified defined contribution plan (whether or not terminated) maintained by an Employer or a Related Company concurrently with the Plan, and if the "annual addition" for the "limitation year" would otherwise exceed the amount that may be applied for the Participant's benefit under the limitation contained in the preceding Section, such excess shall be reduced first by reducing "annual additions" under the Plan as provided in the preceding Section. If the limitation contained in the preceding Section still is not satisfied, such excess shall be reduced as provided in the defined contribution plans other than the Plan.

7.14 Scope of Limitations

The Code Section 415 limitations contained in the preceding Sections shall be applicable only with respect to benefits provided pursuant to defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans described in Code Section 415(k). For purposes of applying the Code Section 415 limitations contained in the preceding Sections, the term "Related Company" shall be adjusted as provided in Code Section 415(h).

CREDITING AND VALUING ACCOUNTS

11.1 Crediting Accounts

All contributions made under the provisions of the Plan shall be credited to Accounts in the Trust Funds by the Trustee, in accordance with procedures established in writing by the Administrator, either when received or on the succeeding Valuation Date after valuation of the Trust Fund has been completed for such Valuation Date as provided in Section 11.2, as shall be determined by the Administrator.

11.2 Valuing Accounts

Accounts in the Trust Funds shall be valued by the Trustee on the Valuation Date, in accordance with procedures established in writing by the Administrator, either in the manner adopted by the Trustee and approved by the Administrator or in the manner set forth in Section 11.3 as Plan valuation procedures, as determined by the Administrator.

11.3 Plan Valuation Procedures

With respect to the Trust Funds, the Administrator may determine that the following valuation procedures shall be applied. As of each Valuation Date hereunder, the portion of any Accounts in a Trust Fund shall be adjusted to reflect any increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund for the period of time occurring since the immediately preceding Valuation Date for the Trust Fund (the "valuation period") in the following manner:

(a) First, the value of the Trust Fund shall be determined by valuing all of the assets of the Trust Fund at fair market value.

(b) Next, the net increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund attributable to net income and all profits and losses, realized and unrealized, during the valuation period shall be determined on the basis of the valuation under paragraph (a) taking into account appropriate adjustments for contributions, loan payments, and transfers to and distributions, withdrawals, loans, and transfers from such Trust Fund during the valuation period.

(c) Finally, the net increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund shall be allocated among Accounts in the Trust Fund in the ratio of the balance of the portion of such Account in the Trust Fund as of the preceding Valuation Date less any distributions, withdrawals, loans, and transfers from such Account balance in the Trust Fund since the Valuation Date to the aggregate balances of the portions of all Accounts in the Trust Fund similarly adjusted, and each Account in the Trust Fund shall be credited or charged with the amount of its allocated share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may adopt such accounting procedures as it considers appropriate and equitable to establish a proportionate crediting of net increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund for contributions, loan payments, and transfers to and distributions, withdrawals, loans, and transfers from such Trust Fund made by or on behalf of a Participant during the valuation period.

Plan#002                     43                     Contract#51344

11.4 Unit Accounting Permitted

The Administrator may, for administrative purposes, establish unit values for one or more Investment Fund (or any portion thereof) and maintain the accounts setting forth each Participant's interest in such Investment Fund (or any portion thereof) in terms of such units, all in accordance with such rules and procedures as the Administrator shall deem to be fair, equitable, and administratively practicable. In the event that unit accounting is thus established for an Investment Fund (or any portion thereof), the value of a Participant's interest in that Investment Fund (or any portion thereof) at any time shall be an amount equal to the then value of a unit in such Investment Fund (or any portion thereof) multiplied by the number of units then credited to the Participant.

11.5 Finality of Determinations

The Trustee shall have exclusive responsibility for determining the value of each Account maintained hereunder. The Trustee's determinations thereof shall be conclusive upon all interested parties.

11.6 Notification

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each Plan Year, the Administrator shall notify each Participant and Beneficiary of the value of his Account and Sub-Accounts as of a Valuation Date during the Plan Year.

LOANS

12.1 Application for Loan

A Participant who is a party in interest as defined in ERISA Section 3(14) may make application to the Administrator for a loan from his Account. Loans shall be made to Participants in accordance with written guidelines which are hereby incorporated into and made a part of the Plan. To the extent that such written guidelines comply with the requirements of Code Section 72(p), but are inconsistent with the provisions of this Article, such written guidelines shall be given effect.

12.2 Collateral for Loan

As collateral for any loan granted hereunder, the Participant shall grant to the Plan a security interest in his vested interest under the Plan equal to the amount of the loan; provided, however, that in no event may the security interest exceed 50 percent of the Participant's vested interest under the Plan determined as of the date as of which the loan is originated in accordance with Plan provisions. In the case of a Participant who is an active employee, the Participant also shall enter into an agreement to repay the loan by payroll withholding.

No loan in excess of 50 percent of the Participant's vested interest under the Plan shall be made from the Plan.

Loans shall not be made available to Highly Compensated Employees in an amount greater than the amount made available to other employees.

A loan shall not be granted unless the Participant consents to the charging of his Account for unpaid principal and interest amounts in the event the loan is declared to be in default.

12.3 Reduction of Account Upon Distribution

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the amount of a Participant's Account that is distributable to the Participant or his Beneficiary under Article XIII or XV shall be reduced by the portion of his vested interest that is held by the Plan as security for any loan outstanding to the Participant, provided that the reduction is used to repay the loan. If distribution is made because of the Participant's death prior to the commencement of distribution of his Account and the Participant's vested interest in his Account is payable to more than one individual as Beneficiary, 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 each such individual.

12.4 Legal Requirements Applicable to Plan Loans

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the following terms and conditions shall apply to any loan made to a Participant under this Article:

Plan#002                     45                     Contract#51344

(a) The amount of any loan to a Participant (when added to the outstanding balance of all other loans to the Participant from the Plan or any other plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company) shall not exceed the lesser of:

(i) $50,000, reduced by the excess, if any, of the highest outstanding balance of any other loan to the Participant from the Plan or any other plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company during the preceding 12-month period over the outstanding balance of such loans on the date a loan is made hereunder; or

(ii) 50 percent of the vested portions of the Participant's Account and his vested interest under all other plans maintained by an Employer or a Related Company.

(b) The term of any loan to a Participant shall be no greater than 5 years, except in the case of a loan used to acquire any dwelling unit which within a reasonable period of time is to be used (determined at the time the loan is made) as a principal residence (as defined under Code Section 121) of the Participant.

(c) Substantially level amortization shall be required over the term of the loan with payments made not less frequently than quarterly. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if so provided in the written guidelines applicable to Plan loans, the amortization schedule may be waived and payments suspended while a Participant is on a leave of absence from employment with an Employer or any Related Company (for periods in which the Participant does not perform military service as described in paragraph (d) below), provided that all of the following requirements are met:

(i) Such leave is either without pay or at a reduced rate of pay that, after withholding for employment and income taxes, is less than the amount required to be paid under the amortization schedule;

(ii) Payments resume after the earlier of (a) the date such leave of absence ends or (b) the one-year anniversary of the date such leave began;

(iii) The period during which payments are suspended does not exceed one year;

(iv) Payments resume in an amount not less than the amount required under the original amortization schedule; and

(v) The waiver of the amortization schedule does not extend the period of the loan beyond the maximum period permitted under this Article.

(d) If a Participant is absent from employment with any Employer or any Related Company for a period during which he performs services in the uniformed services (as defined in chapter 45 of title 38 of the United States Code), whether or not such services constitute qualified military service, the suspension of payments shall not be taken into account for purposes of applying either paragraph (b) or paragraph (c) of this Section provided that all of the following requirements are met:

(i) Payments resume upon completion of such military service;

(ii) Payments resume in an amount not less than the amount required under the original amortization schedule and continue in such amount until the loan is repaid in full;

Plan#002                     46                     Contract#51344

(iv) The loan is repaid in full, including interest accrued during the period of such military service, no later than the maximum period otherwise permitted under this Article extended by the period of such military service.

(e) The loan shall be evidenced by a legally enforceable agreement that demonstrates compliance with the provisions of this Section.

(f) Subject to the requirements of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, the interest rate on any loan to a Participant shall be a reasonable interest rate commensurate with current interest rates charged for loans made under similar circumstances by persons in the business of lending money.

12.5 Administration of Loan Investment Fund

Upon approval of a loan to a Participant, the Administrator shall direct the Trustee to transfer an amount equal to the loan amount from the Investment Funds in which it is invested, as directed by the Administrator, to the loan Investment Fund established in the Participant's name. Any loan approved by the Administrator shall be made to the Participant out of the Participant's loan Investment Fund. All principal and interest paid by the Participant on a loan made under this Article shall be deposited to his Account and shall be allocated upon receipt among the Investment Funds in accordance with the Participant's currently effective investment election. The balance of the Participant's loan Investment Fund shall be decreased by the amount of principal payments and the loan Investment Fund shall be terminated when the loan has been repaid in full.

12.6 Default

If either (i) a Participant fails to make or cause to be made, any payment required under the terms of the loan by the end of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which the payment was due, unless payment is not made because the Participant is on a leave of absence and the amortization schedule is waived as provided in paragraph (c) or (d) of Section 12.4, or (ii) there is an outstanding principal balance existing on a loan after the last scheduled repayment date (extended as provided in Section 12.4(d), if applicable), the Administrator shall 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. In any such event, if such balance and interest thereon is not then paid, the Trustee shall charge the Account of the borrower with the amount of such balance and interest as of the earliest date a distribution may be made from the Plan to the borrower without adversely affecting the tax qualification of the Plan or of the cash or deferred arrangement.

12.7 Deemed Distribution Under Code Section 72(p)

If a Participant's loan is in default as provided in Section 12.6, the Participant shall be deemed to have received a taxable distribution in the amount of the outstanding loan balance as required under Code Section 72(p), whether or not distribution may actually be made from the Plan without adversely affecting the tax qualification of the Plan.

If a Participant is deemed to have received distribution of an outstanding loan balance hereunder, no further loans may be made to such Participant from his Account.

Plan#002                     47                     Contract#51344

12.8 Treatment of Outstanding Balance of Loan Deemed Distributed Under Code Section 72(p)

The balance of any loan that is deemed to have been distributed to a Participant hereunder shall cease to be an outstanding loan for purposes of Code Section 72(p) and a Participant shall not be treated as having received a taxable distribution when his Account is offset by such outstanding loan balance as provided in Section 12.6. Any interest that accrues on a loan after it is deemed to have been distributed shall not be treated as an additional loan to the Participant and shall not be included in the Participant's taxable income as a deemed distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, unless a Participant repays such loan, with interest, the amount of such loan, with interest thereon calculated as provided in the original loan note, shall continue to be considered an outstanding loan for purposes of determining the maximum permissible amount of any subsequent loan under Section 12.4(a).

If a Participant elects to make payments on a loan after it is deemed to have been distributed hereunder, such payments shall be treated as "employee contributions", as defined in Section 7.1, to the Plan solely for purposes of determining the taxable portion of the Participant's Account and shall not be treated as "employee contributions" for any other Plan purpose, including application of the limitations on contributions applicable under Code Sections 401(m) and 415.

The provisions of this Section regarding treatment of loans that are deemed distributed shall not apply to loans made prior to January 1, 2002, except to the extent provided under the transition rules in Q & A 22(c)(2) of Section 1.72(p)-l of the Treasury Regulations.

(a) Minimum Loan Amount: A Participant may not request a loan for less than $1,000.

(b) Maximum Number of Outstanding Loans: A Participant may not have more than two outstanding loans at any time. A Participant with two outstanding loans may not apply for another loan until all but one of the existing loans is repaid in full and may not refinance an existing loan or obtain a third loan for the purpose of paying off an existing loan. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any loans made prior to the effective date of this amendment and restatement; provided, however, that any such loan shall be taken into account in determining whether a Participant may apply for a new loan hereunder.

(c) Pre-Payment Without Penalty: A Participant may pre-pay all or any part of the outstanding balance of any loan hereunder prior to the date it is due without penalty.

(d) Effect of Termination of Employment: Upon a Participant's termination of employment, the balance of any outstanding loan hereunder shall immediately become due and owing.

(e) No Roll Over of Loans: A Participant may not elect to roll over any loan note held pursuant to the provisions of this Article.

12.10 Prior Loans

14.2 Disposition of Non-Vested Amounts

That portion of a Participant's Employer Contributions Sub-Account that is not vested upon the occurrence of his Settlement Date shall be disposed of as follows:

(a) If the Participant has no vested interest in his Account upon the occurrence of his Settlement Date or his vested interest in his Account as of the date of distribution does not exceed $5,000, resulting in the distribution or deemed distribution to the Participant of his entire vested interest in his Account, the non-vested balance in the Participant's Employer Contributions Sub-Account shall be forfeited and his Account closed as of (i) the Participant's Settlement Date, if the Participant has no vested interest in his Account and is therefore deemed to have received distribution on that date, or (ii) the date actual distribution is made to the Participant.

(b) he resumes employment covered under the Plan before the earlier of (i) the end of the 5-year period beginning on the date he is reemployed or (ii) the date he incurs 5-consecutive Breaks in Service commencing after the date he received, or is deemed to have received, distribution of his vested interest in his Account; and

ARTICLE XV

DISTRIBUTIONS

15.1 Distributions to Participants

Subject to the provisions of Section 15.3, a Participant whose Settlement Date occurs shall receive distribution of his vested interest in his Account in the form provided under Article XVI beginning as soon as reasonably practicable following his Settlement Date or the date his application for distribution is filed with the Administrator, if later.

15.2 Distributions to Beneficiaries

Subject to the provisions of Section 15.3, if a Participant dies prior to his Benefit Payment Date, his Beneficiary shall receive distribution of the Participant's vested interest in his Account in the form provided under Article XVI beginning as soon as reasonably practicable following the date the Beneficiary's application for distribution is filed with the Administrator. If distribution is to be made to a Participant's Spouse, it shall be made available within a reasonable period of time after the Participant's death that is no less favorable than the period of time applicable to other distributions.

If a Participant dies after the date distribution of his vested interest in his Account begins under this Article, but before his entire vested interest in his Account is distributed, his Beneficiary shall receive distribution of the remainder of the Participant's vested interest in his Account beginning as soon as reasonably practicable following the Participant's date of death.

15.3 Code Section 401(a)(9) Requirements

The provisions of this Section take precedence over any inconsistent provision of the Plan; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section are not intended to create additional forms of payment that are not otherwise provided under Article XVI.

To the extent required under Code Section 401(a)(9), all distributions made from the Plan shall be determined and made in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 401(a)(9) and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, as set forth in this Section.

(a) A Participant's vested interest in his Account shall be distributed to the Participant no later than the Participant's Required Beginning Date.

(b) If a Participant dies on or after his Required Beginning Date, but before his vested interest in his Account has been distributed in full, the remainder of the Participant's vested Account balance shall be distributed to the Participant's Beneficiary in a single sum payment as soon as reasonably practicable following the Participant's death.

(c) If a Participant dies before his Required Beginning Date and before his vested interest in his Account has been distributed in full, the Participant's vested Account balance shall be distributed to the Participant's Beneficiary in a single sum payment no later than the 5th anniversary of the Participant's death; provided, however, that if the Participant's Spouse is his sole "designated beneficiary" with respect to all or any portion of the Participant's vested Account, the Spouse may elect to postpone payment until December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would

Plan#002                     54                     Contract#51344

have attained age 70 1/2, if later. The Spouse's election to defer payment must be made no later than September 30 of the calendar year that contains the 5th anniversary of the Participant's death.

If the Participant's Spouse is a sole "designated beneficiary" with respect to all or any portion of the Participant's interest and the Spouse dies after the Participant but before distribution to the Spouse is made, the rules described above shall be applied with respect to the interest for which the Spouse was the sole "designated beneficiary," substituting the date of the Spouse's death for the date of the Participant's death. A Participant's Spouse qualifies as the Participant's sole "designated beneficiary" if she is entitled to the Participant's entire vested interest in his Account or his entire vested interest in a segregated portion of the Participant's Account and no other "designated beneficiary" is entitled to any portion of that interest unless the Spouse dies prior to receiving full distribution of that interest.

(d) For purposes of this Section the following terms have the following meanings:

(i) A Participant's "designated beneficiary" means the individual who is the Participant's Beneficiary under Article XVII of the Plan and is the designated beneficiary under Code Section 401(a)(9) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(a)(9)-4.

If a Participant has no vested interest in his Account on his Settlement Date, he shall be deemed to have received distribution of such vested interest on his Settlement Date.

If a Participant's vested interest in his Account exceeds $5,000, distribution shall not commence to such Participant prior to his Normal Retirement Date or the date he attains age 62, if later, without the Participant's written consent.

15.5 Automatic Rollover of Mandatory Distributions

If distribution of a Participant's vested interest is to be made to a Participant as provided in the preceding Section before the later of the Participant's Normal Retirement Date or the date the Participant attains age 62, and the amount of such vested interest exceeds $1,000, distribution of such vested interest shall be made through a direct rollover to an individual retirement plan selected by the Administrator, unless the Participant affirmatively elects distribution in a single sum payment or through a direct rollover to an "eligible retirement plan" (as defined in Code Section 402(c)(8)(B), modified as provided in Code Section 401(a)(31)(E)) specified by the Participant. Any distribution made to a Participant's surviving Spouse or other Beneficiary or to an alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order shall not be subject to the automatic rollover provisions described in the preceding sentence.

15.6 Required Commencement of Distribution

Unless the Participant elects a later date, distribution of his vested interest in his Account shall commence to the Participant no later than 60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which occurs the latest of (i) the Participant's Normal Retirement Date, (ii) the Participant's attainment of age 65, (iii) the tenth anniversary of the year in which the Participant commenced participation, or (iv) the Participant's Settlement Date. A

Plan#002                     55                     Contract#51344

Participant who does not make application for his benefit to commence shall be deemed to have elected to postpone distribution hereunder.

15.7 Reemployment of a Participant

If a Participant whose Settlement Date has occurred is reemployed by an Employer or a Related Company, he shall lose his right to any distribution or further distributions from the Trust arising from his prior Settlement Date and his interest in the Trust shall thereafter be treated in the same manner as that of any other Participant whose Settlement Date has not occurred.

15.8 Restrictions on Alienation

Except as provided in Code Section 401(a)(13) (relating to qualified domestic relations orders), Code Section 401(a)(13)(C) and (D) (relating to offsets ordered or required under a criminal conviction involving the Plan, a civil judgment in connection with a violation or alleged violation of fiduciary responsibilities under ERISA, or a settlement agreement between the Participant and the Department of Labor in connection with a violation or alleged violation of fiduciary responsibilities under ERISA), Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(a)-13(b)(2) (relating to Federal tax levies and judgments), or as otherwise required by law, no benefit under the Plan at any time shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, assignment (either at law or in equity), encumbrance, garnishment, levy, execution, or other legal or equitable process; and no person shall have power in any manner to anticipate, transfer, assign (either at law or in equity), alienate or subject to attachment, garnishment, levy, execution, or other legal or equitable process, or in any way encumber his benefits under the Plan, or any part thereof, and any attempt to do so shall be void.

15.9 Facility of Payment

If the Administrator finds that any individual to whom an amount is payable hereunder is incapable of attending to his financial affairs because of any mental or physical condition, including the infirmities of advanced age, such amount may, in the discretion of the Administrator, be paid to such individual's court appointed guardian or to another person with a valid power of attorney. The Trustee shall make such payment only upon receipt of written instructions to such effect from the Administrator. Any such payment shall be charged to the Account from which the payment would otherwise have been paid to the individual found incapable of attending to his financial affairs and shall be a complete discharge of any liability therefor under the Plan.

If distribution is to be made to a minor Beneficiary, the Administrator may, in its discretion, pay the amount to a duly qualified guardian or other legal representative, to an adult relative under the applicable state Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, as custodian, or to a trust that has been established for the benefit of the minor. Any such payment shall be charged to the Account from which the payment would otherwise have been paid to the minor and shall be a complete discharge of any liability therefor under the Plan.

15.10 Inability to Locate Payee and Non-Negotiated Checks

If any benefit becomes payable to any person, or to the executor or administrator of any deceased person, and if that person or his executor or administrator does not present himself to the Administrator within a reasonable period after the Administrator mails written notice of his eligibility to receive a distribution hereunder to his last known address and makes such other diligent effort to locate the person as the Administrator determines, such as (1) providing a distribution notice to the lost Participant at his/her last known address by certified mail, (2) use of the Internal Revenue Service letter forwarding program under

Plan#002                     56                     Contract#51344

IRS Revenue Procedure 94-22, (3) use of a commercial locater service, the internet or other general search method, or (4) use of the Social Security Administration search program, that benefit will be forfeited. However, if the payee later files a claim for that benefit, the benefit will be restored.

If a distribution check has been issued and is outstanding for more than 180 days and the Administrator has been unable to locate the payee after diligent efforts have been made to do so, then except as specifically directed by the Administrator, the amount of the check shall be re-deposited to the Plan and forfeited. However, if the payee is subsequently located, the check amount will be restored to an Account established on the payee's behalf, without adjustment for investment gains or losses since the date of issuance.

Any amount forfeited under this Section shall be applied first against Plan expenses and then against the Employer Contribution obligations for any subsequent Contribution Period 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 Contribution Period with respect to any Employer exceed the amount of such Employer's Employer Contribution obligations for the Contribution Period, the excess amount of such forfeitures shall be held unallocated in a suspense account established with respect to the Employer and shall be applied against Plan expenses and the Employer's Employer Contribution obligations for the following Contribution Period.

15.11 Distribution Pursuant to Qualified Domestic Relations Orders

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a qualified domestic relations order so provides, distribution may be made to an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Code Section 414(p), regardless of whether the Participant's Settlement Date has occurred or whether the Participant is otherwise entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan.

In addition, the Spouse's written consent must either (i) specify any non-Spouse Beneficiary designated by the Participant and that such Beneficiary may not be changed without the Spouse's written consent or (ii) acknowledge that the Spouse has the right to limit consent to a specific Beneficiary, but permit the Participant to change the designated Beneficiary without the Spouse's further consent. A Participant's Spouse will be deemed to have given written consent to the Participant's designation of Beneficiary if the Participant establishes to the satisfaction of a Plan representative that such consent cannot be obtained because the Spouse cannot be located or because of other circumstances set forth in Section 401(a)(11) of the Code and regulations issued thereunder. Any written consent given or deemed to have been given by a Participant's Spouse hereunder shall be valid only with respect to the Spouse who signs the consent.

17.3 Revocation of Beneficiary Designation Upon Divorce

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XVII to the contrary, if a Participant designates his or her Spouse as Beneficiary under the Plan, such designation shall automatically become null and void as of the date of any final divorce or similar decree or order unless either (i) the Participant re-designates such former Spouse as his or her Beneficiary after the date of the final decree or order or (ii) such former Spouse is designated as the Participant's Beneficiary under a qualified domestic relations order; provided, however, that such former Spouse shall be the Participant's Beneficiary under this clause (ii) only to the extent required in accordance with the qualified domestic relations order.

ARTICLE XVIII

ADMINISTRATION

18.1 Authority of the Sponsor

The Sponsor, which shall be the administrator for purposes of ERISA and the plan administrator for purposes of the Code, shall be responsible for the administration of the Plan and, in addition to the powers and authorities expressly conferred upon it in the Plan, shall have all such powers and authorities as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan, including the power and authority to interpret and construe the provisions of the Plan, to make benefit determinations, and to resolve any disputes which arise under the Plan. The Sponsor may employ such attorneys, agents, and accountants as it may deem necessary or advisable to assist in carrying out its duties hereunder. The Sponsor shall be a "named fiduciary" as that term is defined in ERISA Section 402(a)(2). The Sponsor, by action of its board of directors, may:

(a) allocate any of the powers, authority, or responsibilities for the operation and administration of the Plan (other than trustee responsibilities as defined in ERISA Section 405(c)(3)) among named fiduciaries; and

(b) designate a person or persons other than a named fiduciary to carry out any of such powers, authority, or responsibilities;

except that no allocation by the Sponsor of, or designation by the Sponsor with respect to, any of such powers, authority, or responsibilities to another named fiduciary or a person other than a named fiduciary shall become effective unless such allocation or designation shall first be accepted by such named fiduciary or other person in a writing signed by it and delivered to the Sponsor.

The Sponsor shall also have the authority and discretion to engage an Administrative Delegate who shall perform, without discretionary authority or control, administrative functions within the framework of policies, interpretations, rules, practices, and procedures made by the Sponsor or other "named fiduciary". Any action made or taken by the Administrative Delegate may be appealed by an affected Participant to the Sponsor in accordance with the claims review procedure as provided in Section 18.4. Any decisions which call for interpretations of plan provisions not previously made by the Sponsor shall be made only by the Sponsor. The Administrative Delegate shall not be considered a fiduciary with respect to the services it provides.

18.2 Discretionary Authority

In carrying out its duties under the Plan, including making benefit determinations, interpreting or construing the provisions of the Plan, making factual determinations, and resolving disputes, the Sponsor (or any individual to whom authority has been delegated in accordance with Section 18.1, other than the Administrative Delegate) shall have absolute discretionary authority. The decision of the Sponsor (or any individual to whom authority has been delegated in accordance with Section 18.1, other than the Administrative Delegate) shall be final and binding on all persons and entitled to the maximum deference allowed by law.

Plan#002                     61                     Contract#51344

18.3 Action of the Sponsor

Any act authorized, permitted, or required to be taken under the Plan by the Sponsor and which has not been delegated in accordance with Section 18.1, may be taken by a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Sponsor, either by vote at a meeting, or in writing without a meeting, or by the employee or employees of the Sponsor designated by the board of directors to carry out such acts on behalf of the Sponsor. All notices, advice, directions, certifications, approvals, and instructions required or authorized to be given by the Sponsor under the Plan shall be in writing and signed by either (i) a majority of the members of the Sponsor's board of directors or by such member or members as may be designated by an instrument in writing, signed by all the members thereof, as having authority to execute such documents on its behalf, or (ii) the employee or employees authorized to act for the Sponsor in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

18.4 Claims Review Procedure

Except to the extent that the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement provide another method of resolving claims for benefits under the Plan, the provisions of this Section shall control whenever a claim for benefits under the Plan filed by any person (referred to in this Section as the "Claimant") is denied. The provisions of this Section shall also control whenever a Claimant seeks a remedy under any provision of ERISA or other applicable law in connection with any error regarding his Account (including a failure or error in implementing investment directions) and such claim is denied.

Whenever a claim under the Plan is denied, whether in whole or in part, the Sponsor shall transmit a written notice of such decision to the Claimant within 90 days of the date the claim was filed or, if special circumstances require an extension, within 180 days of such date, which notice shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and shall contain a statement of (i) the specific reasons for the denial of the claim, (ii) specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such information is necessary, (iv) that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, (v) records and other information relevant to the Claimant's claim, a description of the review procedures and in the event of an adverse review decision, a statement describing any voluntary review procedures and the Claimant's right to obtain copies of such procedures, and (vi) a statement that there is no further administrative review following the initial review, and that the Claimant has a right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a) if the Sponsor's decision on review is adverse to the Claimant. The notice shall also include a statement advising the Claimant that, within 60 days of the date on which he receives such notice, he may obtain review of such decision in accordance with the procedures hereinafter set forth. Within such 60-day period, the Claimant or his authorized representative may request that the claim denial be reviewed by filing with the Sponsor a written request therefor, which request shall contain the following information:

(a) the date on which the Claimant's request was filed with the Sponsor; provided, however, that the date on which the Claimant's request for review was in fact filed with the Sponsor shall control in the event that the date of the actual filing is later than the date stated by the Claimant pursuant to this paragraph;

(b) the specific portions of the denial of his claim which the Claimant requests the Sponsor to review;

(c) a statement by the Claimant setting forth the basis upon which he believes the Sponsor should reverse the previous denial of his claim for benefits and accept his claim as made; and

Plan#002                     62                     Contract#51344

(d) any written material (offered as exhibits) which the Claimant desires the Sponsor to examine in its consideration of his position as stated pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section.

Within 60 days of the date determined pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section or, if special circumstances require an extension, within 120 days of such date, the Sponsor shall conduct a full and fair review of the decision denying the Claimant's claim for benefits and shall render its written decision on review to the Claimant. The Sponsor's decision on review shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and shall specify the reasons and Plan provisions upon which the Sponsor's decision was based.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, special procedures apply for processing claims and reviewing prior claim determinations if a Claimant's claim for benefits is contingent upon a determination as to whether a Participant is Disabled under the Plan.

18.5 Special Rules Applicable to Claims Related to Investment Errors

Any person alleging that there has been a failure or error in implementing investment directions with respect to a Participant's Account must file a claim with the Administrator on or before the earlier of (a) 60 days from the mailing of a trade confirmation, account statement, or any other document, from which the error can be discovered, or (b) one year from the date of the transaction related to the error. Any claim filed outside of such period shall be limited to the benefit that would have been determined if the claim were timely filed, and therefore any adjustments shall be calculated for such period only.

18.6 Exhaustion of Remedies

No civil action for benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless and until the aggrieved person has (a) submitted a timely claim for benefits in accordance with this Article, (b) been notified by the Administrator that the claim has been denied, (c) filed a written request for a review of the claim in accordance with the preceding Section, (d) been notified in writing of an adverse benefit determination on review, and (e) filed the civil action within 1 year of the date he receives a final adverse determination of his claim on review.

18.7 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders

The Sponsor shall establish reasonable procedures to determine the status of domestic relations orders and to administer distributions under domestic relations orders which are deemed to be qualified orders. Such procedures shall be in writing and shall comply with the provisions of Code Section 414(p) and regulations issued thereunder.

18.8 Indemnification

In addition to whatever rights of indemnification the members of the Sponsor's board of directors or any employee or employees of the Sponsor to whom any power, authority, or responsibility is delegated pursuant to Section 18.3, may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or regulations of the Sponsor, under any provision of law, or under any other agreement, the Sponsor shall satisfy any liability actually and reasonably incurred by any such person or persons, including expenses, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement (other than amounts paid in settlement not approved by the Sponsor), in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding which is related to the exercising or failure to exercise by such person or persons of any of the powers, authority, responsibilities, or discretion as provided under the Plan, or reasonably believed by such person or persons to be provided hereunder, and any action taken by such person or persons in connection therewith,

Plan#002                     63                     Contract#51344

unless the same is judicially determined to be the result of such person or persons' gross negligence or willful misconduct.

18.9 Prudent Man Standard of Care

The Trustee, the Sponsor and any other fiduciary under the Plan shall discharge his duties under the Plan solely in the interests of Participants and Beneficiaries and, in accordance with the requirements of ERISA Section 404(a)(1)(B), with the care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the prevailing circumstances that a prudent man acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in conducting an enterprise of like character with like aims.

18.10 Actions Binding

Subject to the provisions of Section 18.4, any action taken by the Sponsor which is authorized, permitted, or required under the Plan shall be final and binding upon the Employers, the Trustee, all persons who have or who claim an interest under the Plan, and all third parties dealing with the Employers or the Trustee.

Plan#002                     64                     Contract#51344

ARTICLE XIX

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

19.1 Amendment by Plan Sponsor

Subject to the provisions of Section 19.3, the Sponsor may at any time and from time to time, by action of its board of directors, or such officers of the Sponsor as are authorized by its board of directors, amend the Plan, either prospectively or retroactively. Any such amendment shall be by written instrument executed by the Sponsor.

19.2 Amendment by Volume Submitter Practitioner

In the event that there is a change in the law applicable to the Plan, as reflected in the Code, regulations issued thereunder, revenue rulings, or other statements published by the Internal Revenue Service, the "volume submitter practitioner" may amend the Plan to comply with such changes on behalf of the Sponsors who have adopted its "specimen plan" prior to the date that its "specimen plan" is amended to comply with such change. In addition, the "volume submitter practitioner" may amend the Plan to correct its prior approved "specimen plan." No amendment by the "volume submitter practitioner" shall be effective prior to February 17, 2005.

The "volume submitter practitioner" shall maintain, or have maintained on its behalf, a record of the Sponsors adopting its "specimen plan." The "volume submitter practitioner" shall make reasonable and diligent efforts to ensure that a copy of any amendment adopted hereunder is provided to each Sponsor at the Sponsor's last known address, as shown in the record maintained in accordance with the preceding sentence. Where necessary, the "volume submitter practitioner" shall make reasonable and diligent efforts to ensure that each Sponsor adopts new documents when necessary.

An amendment made by the "volume submitter practitioner" in accordance with the provisions of this Section may be made effective on a date prior to the first day of the Plan Year in which it is adopted if, in published guidance, the Internal Revenue Service either permits or requires such an amendment to be made to enable the Plan and Trust to satisfy the applicable requirements of the Code and all requirements for the retroactive amendment are satisfied.

The "volume submitter practitioner" may not amend a Plan on behalf of its Sponsor if either (a) the Plan modifies the "specimen plan" to incorporate a type of plan that is not permitted under the volume submitter program, as described in applicable Revenue Procedures or other statements of the Internal Revenue Service, or (b) the Internal Revenue Service has advised the Sponsor that the Plan modifies the "specimen plan" in such a manner or to such an extent that the Plan must be treated as an individually-designed plan and will not receive the extended 6-year remedial amendment cycle applicable to volume submitter plans.

For purposes of this Section, the following terms have the following meanings:

(a) The "specimen plan" means the plan with respect to which the Internal Revenue Service has issued an advisory letter to the "volume submitter practitioner."

(b) The "volume submitter practitioner" means Thompson Hine, LLP d/b/a Plan Document Systems.

Plan#002                     65                     Contract#51344

19.3 Limitation on Amendment

Except as otherwise required by law, no amendment shall be made to the Plan that decreases the accrued benefit of any Participant or Beneficiary, except that nothing contained herein shall restrict the right to amend the provisions of the Plan relating to the administration of the Plan and Trust. Moreover, no such amendment shall be made hereunder which shall permit any part of the Trust to revert to an Employer or any Related Company or be used or be diverted to purposes other than the exclusive benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries. The Sponsor shall make no retroactive amendment to the Plan unless such amendment satisfies the requirements of Code Section 401(b) and/or Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(a)(4)-11(g), as applicable.

19.4 Termination

The Sponsor reserves the right, by action of its board of directors, to terminate the Plan as to all Employers at any time (the effective date of such termination being hereinafter referred to as the "termination date"). Upon any such termination of the Plan, the following actions shall be taken for the benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries:

(a) As of the termination date, each Investment Fund shall be valued and all Accounts and Sub-Accounts shall be adjusted in the manner provided in Article XI, with any unallocated contributions or forfeitures being allocated as of the termination date in the manner otherwise provided in the Plan. The termination date shall become a Valuation Date for purposes of Article XI. In determining the net worth of the Trust, there shall be included as a liability such amounts as shall be necessary to pay all expenses in connection with the termination of the Trust and the liquidation and distribution of the property of the Trust, as well as other expenses, whether or not accrued, and shall include as an asset all accrued income.

(b) All Accounts shall then be disposed of to or for the benefit of each Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of Article XV as if the termination date were his Settlement Date; provided, however, that notwithstanding the provisions of Article XV, if the Plan does not offer an annuity option and if neither his Employer nor a Related Company establishes or maintains another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Code Section 4975(e)(7)), the Participant's written consent to the commencement of distribution shall not be required regardless of the value of the vested portions of his Account.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, no distribution shall be made to a Participant of any portion of the balance of his 401(k) Contributions Sub-Account on account of Plan termination (other than a distribution made in accordance with Article XIII or required in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(9)) unless (i) neither his Employer nor a Related Company establishes or maintains another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Code Section 4975(e)(7), a tax credit employee stock ownership plan as defined in Code Section 409, a simplified employee pension as defined in Code Section 408(k), a SIMPLE IRA plan as defined in Code Section 408(p), a plan or contract that meets the requirements of Code Section 403(b), or a plan that is described in Code Section 457(b) or (f)) either at the time the Plan is terminated or at any time during the period ending 12 months after distribution of all assets from the Plan; provided, however, that this provision shall not apply if fewer than 2% of the Eligible Employees under the Plan were eligible to participate at any time in such other defined contribution plan during the 24 month period beginning 12 months before the Plan termination, and (ii) the distribution the Participant receives is a "lump sum distribution" as

Plan#002                     66                     Contract#51344

defined in Code Section 402(e)(4), without regard to clauses (I), (II), (III), and (IV) of sub paragraph (D)(i) thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, upon any such Plan termination, the vested interest of each Participant and Beneficiary in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account shall be 100 percent; and, if there is a partial termination of the Plan, the vested interest of each Participant and Beneficiary who is affected by the partial termination in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account shall be 100 percent. For purposes of the preceding sentence only, the Plan shall be deemed to terminate automatically if there shall be a complete discontinuance of contributions hereunder by all Employers.

19.5 Inability to Locate Payee on Plan Termination

If distribution of a Participant's Account is to be made to the Participant, his Beneficiary, or an alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order (a "payee") on account of the termination of the Plan, and such payee does not present himself to the Administrator within a reasonable period after the Administrator mails written notice of his eligibility to receive a distribution hereunder to his last known address and makes such other diligent effort to locate the person as the Administrator determines, distribution of such Account shall be made at the direction of the Administrator through a direct rollover to an individual retirement plan established on behalf of the payee with a provider selected by the Administrator, purchase of an annuity contract on behalf of the payee, or transfer to another "eligible retirement plan", as defined in Section 16.2.

19.6 Reorganization

The merger, consolidation, or liquidation of any Employer with or into any other Employer or a Related Company shall not constitute a termination of the Plan as to such Employer.

19.7 Withdrawal of an Employer

An Employer other than the Sponsor may withdraw from the Plan at any time upon notice in writing to the Administrator (the effective date of such withdrawal being hereinafter referred to as the "withdrawal date"), and shall thereupon cease to be an Employer for all purposes of the Plan. An Employer shall be deemed automatically to withdraw from the Plan in the event of its complete discontinuance of contributions, or, subject to Section 19.7 and unless the Sponsor otherwise directs, it ceases to be a Related Company of the Sponsor or any other Employer. Upon the withdrawal of an Employer, the withdrawing Employer shall determine whether a partial termination has occurred with respect to its Employees. In the event that the withdrawing Employer determines a partial termination has occurred, the action specified in Section 19.4 shall be taken as of the withdrawal date, as on a termination of the Plan, but with respect only to Participants who are employed solely by the withdrawing Employer, and who, upon such withdrawal, are neither transferred to nor continued in employment with any other Employer or a Related Company. The interest of any Participant employed by the withdrawing Employer who is transferred to or continues in employment with any other Employer or a Related Company, and the interest of any Participant employed solely by an Employer or a Related Company other than the withdrawing Employer, shall remain unaffected by such withdrawal; no adjustment to his Accounts shall be made by reason of the withdrawal; and he shall continue as a Participant hereunder subject to the remaining provisions of the Plan.

ADOPTION BY OTHER ENTITIES

20.1 Adoption by Related Companies

A Related Company that is not an Employer may, with the consent of the Sponsor, adopt the Plan and become an Employer hereunder by causing an appropriate written instrument evidencing such adoption to be executed in accordance with the requirements of its organizational authority. Any such instrument shall specify the effective date of the adoption.

20.2 Effective Plan Provisions

An Employer who adopts the Plan shall be bound by the provisions of the Plan in effect at the time of the adoption and as subsequently in effect because of any amendment to the Plan.

Plan#002                     68                     Contract#51344

ARTICLE XXI

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

21.1 No Commitment as to Employment

Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a commitment or agreement upon the part of any person to continue his employment with an Employer or Related Company, or as a commitment on the part of any Employer or Related Company to continue the employment, compensation, or benefits of any person for any period.

21.2 Benefits

Nothing in the Plan nor the Trust Agreement shall be construed to confer any right or claim upon any person, firm, or corporation other than the Employers, the Trustee, Participants, and Beneficiaries.

21.3 No Guarantees

The Employers, the Administrator, and the Trustee do not guarantee the Trust from loss or depreciation, nor do they guarantee the payment of any amount which may become due to any person hereunder.

21.4 Expenses

The expenses of operation and administration of the Plan, including the expenses of the Administrator and fees of the Trustee, shall be paid from the Trust, unless the Sponsor elects to make payment. To the extent paid from the Trust, administrative expenses shall be paid first from any forfeitures. Any remaining expenses shall be allocated among Participants' Accounts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the costs incident to the management of the assets of an Investment Fund or to the purchase or sale of securities held in an Investment fund shall be allocable to Accounts invested in such Investment Fund and administrative expenses that are incurred directly with respect to an individual Participant's Account will be allocated to that Account.

21.5 Precedent

Except as otherwise specifically provided, no action taken in accordance with the Plan shall be construed or relied upon as a precedent for similar action under similar circumstances.

21.6 Duty to Furnish Information

The Employers, the Administrator, and the Trustee shall furnish to any of the others any documents, reports, returns, statements, or other information that the other reasonably deems necessary to perform its duties hereunder or otherwise imposed by law.

21.7 Merger, Consolidation, or Transfer of Plan Assets

The Plan shall not be merged or consolidated with any other plan, nor shall any of its assets or liabilities be transferred to another plan, unless, immediately after such merger, consolidation, or transfer of assets or liabilities, each Participant in the Plan would receive a benefit under the Plan which is at least equal to

Plan#002                     69                     Contract#51344

the benefit he would have received immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, or transfer of assets or liabilities (assuming in each instance that the Plan had then terminated).

21.8 Condition on Employer Contributions

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan or the Trust Agreement, any contribution of an Employer hereunder is conditioned upon the continued qualification of the Plan under Code Section 401(a), the exempt status of the Trust under Code Section 501(a), and the deductibility of the contribution under Code Section 404. Except as otherwise provided in this Section and Section 21.9, however, in no event shall any portion of the property of the Trust ever revert to or otherwise inure to the benefit of an Employer or any Related Company.

21.9 Return of Contributions to an Employer

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the Trust Agreement to the contrary, in the event any contribution of an Employer made hereunder:

(a) is made under a mistake of fact, or

(b) is disallowed as a deduction under Code Section 404,

such contribution, reduced for any losses experienced by the Trust Fund, may be returned to the Employer within one year after the payment of the contribution or the disallowance of the deduction to the extent disallowed, whichever is applicable. In the event the Plan does not initially qualify under Code Section 401(a), any contribution of an Employer made hereunder may be returned to the Employer within one year of the date of denial of the initial qualification of the Plan, but only if an application for determination was made within the period of time prescribed under ERISA Section 403(c)(2)(B).

21.10 Validity of Plan

The validity of the Plan shall be determined and the Plan shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state or commonwealth in which the Sponsor has its principal place of business, except as preempted by applicable Federal law. The invalidity or illegality of any provision of the Plan shall not affect the legality or validity of any other part thereof.

21.11 Trust Agreement

The Trust Agreement and the Trust maintained thereunder shall be deemed to be a part of the Plan as if fully set forth herein and the provisions of the Trust Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into the Plan.

21.12 Parties Bound

The Plan shall be binding upon the Employers, all Participants and Beneficiaries hereunder, and, as the case may be, the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns of each of them.

21.13 Application of Certain Plan Provisions

For purposes of the general administrative provisions and limitations of the Plan, a Participant's Beneficiary or alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order shall be treated as any other person entitled to receive benefits under the Plan. Upon any termination of the Plan, any such Beneficiary

Plan#002                     70                     Contract#51344

or alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order who has an interest under the Plan at the time of such termination, which does not cease by reason thereof, shall be deemed to be a Participant for all purposes of the Plan. A Participant's Beneficiary, if the Participant has died, or alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order shall be treated as a Participant for purposes of directing investments as provided in Article X.

21.14 Merged Plans

In the event another defined contribution plan (the "merged plan") is merged into and made a part of the Plan, each Employee who was eligible to participate in the "merged plan" immediately prior to the merger shall become an Eligible Employee on the date of the merger. In no event shall a Participant's vested interest in his Sub-Account attributable to amounts transferred to the Plan from the "merged plan" (his "transferee Sub-Account") on and after the merger be less than his vested interest in his account under the "merged plan" immediately prior to the merger. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Participant's service credited for eligibility and vesting purposes under the "merged plan" as of the merger, if any, shall be included as Eligibility and Vesting Service under the Plan to the extent Eligibility and Vesting Service are credited under the Plan. Special provisions applicable to a Participant's "transferee Sub-Account", if any, shall be specifically reflected in the Plan or in an Addendum to the Plan.

21.15 Transferred Funds

If funds from another qualified plan are transferred or merged into the Plan, such funds shall be held and administered in accordance with any restrictions applicable to them under such other plan to the extent required by law and shall be accounted for separately to the extent necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

21.16 Veterans Reemployment Rights

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits, and service credit with respect to qualified military service shall be provided in accordance with Code Section 414(u). Any contributions required to be made in accordance with this Section shall be contributed to the Plan within the time period prescribed under applicable regulations or other guidance. Any Matching Contributions required to be made because of 401(k) Contributions made by a Participant in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 414(u), shall be contributed to the Plan as soon as administratively practicable after the date on which the Participant's contributions are paid to the Plan. The Administrator shall notify the Trustee of any Participant with respect to whom additional contributions are made because of qualified military service. Additional contributions made in accordance with the provisions of this Section that are treated as 401(k) Contributions shall not be included in applying the limitations on 401(k) Contributions described in Article VII. In addition, any Matching Contributions required to be made because of 401(k) Contributions made by a Participant in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 414(u), shall not be included in applying the limitations on Matching Contributions described in Article VII.

21.17 Delivery of Cash Amounts

To the extent that the Plan requires the Employers to deliver cash amounts to the Trustee, such delivery may be made through any means acceptable to the Trustee, including wire transfer.

21.18 Written Communications

Any communication among the Employers, the Administrator, and the Trustee that is stipulated under the Plan to be made in writing may be made in any medium that is acceptable to the receiving party and permitted under applicable law. In addition, any communication or disclosure to or from Participants and/

Plan#002                     71                     Contract#51344

or Beneficiaries that is required under the terms of the Plan to be made in writing may be provided in any other medium (electronic, telephonic, or otherwise) that is acceptable to the Administrator and permitted under applicable law.

21.19 Trust to Trust Transfer

Any Employee, including an Employee who has not yet satisfied any age and/or service requirements to become an Eligible Employee under the Plan, may, with the approval of the Administrator, have Transfer Contributions made to the Plan on his behalf by causing assets to be directly transferred by the trustee of another qualified retirement plan to the Trustee of the Plan.

Amounts contributed to the Plan through a direct rollover shall not constitute Transfer Contributions.

Transfer Contributions made on behalf of an Employee shall be deposited in the Trust and credited to a Transfer Contributions Sub-Account established in the Employee's name. Such Sub-Account shall share in the allocation of earnings, losses, and expenses of the Trust Fund(s) in which it is invested, but shall not share in allocations of Employer Contributions.

In the event a Transfer Contribution is made on behalf of an Employee who has not yet satisfied the requirements to become an Eligible Employee under the Plan, such Transfer Contributions Sub-Account shall represent the Employee's sole interest in the Plan until he becomes an Eligible Employee.

21.20 Plan Correction Procedures

The Employer shall take such action as it deems necessary to correct any Plan failure, including, but not limited to, operational failures, documentation failures (such as a failure to timely amend), failures affecting Plan qualification, etc. Subject to the requirements of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System, as set forth in Revenue Procedure 2006-27, or any superseding guidance ("EPCRS"), the Employer may adopt any correction method that it deems appropriate under the circumstances. In addition to any correction method specified in the Plan, the Employer may, where appropriate, make correction in accordance with EPCRS, including the making of a Qualified Nonelective Contribution permitted under EPCRS, but not otherwise provided under the Plan.

In the event of a fiduciary breach or a prohibited transaction, correction shall be made in accordance with the requirements of ERISA and the Code.

A "required aggregation group" means the group of tax-qualified plans maintained by an Employer or a Related Company consisting of each plan in which a "key employee" participates or participated at any time during the Plan Year containing the "determination date" or any of the 4 preceding Plan Years (regardless of whether the plan has terminated) and each other plan that enables a plan in which a "key employee" participates to meet the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) or Code Section 410.

A "top-heavy group" with respect to a particular Plan Year means a "required" or "permissive aggregation group" if the sum, as of the "determination date", of the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for "key employees" under all defined benefit plans included in such group and the aggregate of the account balances of "key employees" under all defined contribution plans included in such group exceeds 60 percent of a similar sum determined for all employees covered by the plans included in such group.

A "top heavy plan" with respect to a particular Plan Year means (i) in the case of a defined contribution plan (including any simplified employee pension plan), a plan for which, as of the "determination date", the aggregate of the accounts (within the meaning of Code Section 416(g) and the regulations and rulings thereunder) of "key employees" exceeds 60 percent of the aggregate of the accounts of all participants under the plan, with the accounts valued as of the relevant valuation date and increased for any distribution of an account balance made during the 1-year period ending on the "determination date" (5-year period ending on the "determination date" if distribution is made for any reason other than severance from employment, death, or disability), (ii) in the case of a defined benefit plan, a plan for which, as of the

Plan#002                     73                     Contract#51344

"determination date", the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits payable under the plan (within the meaning of Code Section 416(g) and the regulations and rulings thereunder) to "key employees" exceeds 60 percent of the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits under the plan for all employees, with the present value of accrued benefits for employees (other than "key employees") to be determined under the accrual method uniformly used under all plans maintained by an Employer or, if no such method exists, under the slowest accrual method permitted under the fractional accrual rate of Code Section 411(b)(1)(C) and including the present value of any part of any accrued benefits distributed during the 1-year period ending on the "determination date" (5-year period ending on the "determination date" if distribution is made for any reason other than severance from employment, death, or disability), and (iii) any plan (including any simplified employee pension plan) included in a "required aggregation group" that is a "top heavy group". For purposes of this paragraph, the accounts and accrued benefits of any employee who has not performed services for an Employer or a Related Company during the 1 year period ending on the "determination date" shall be disregarded. For purposes of this paragraph, the present value of cumulative accrued benefits under a defined benefit plan for purposes of top heavy determinations shall be calculated using the actuarial assumptions otherwise employed under such plan, except that the same actuarial assumptions shall be used for all plans within a "required" or "permissive aggregation group". A Participant's interest in the Plan attributable to any Rollover Contributions, except Rollover Contributions made from a plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company, shall not be considered in determining whether the Plan is a "top-heavy plan". Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a plan is included in a "required" or "permissive aggregation group" that is not a "top-heavy group", such plan shall not be a "top-heavy plan".

The "valuation date" with respect to any "determination date" means the most recent Valuation Date occurring within the 12-month period ending on the "determination date".

22.2 Applicability

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Article shall be applicable during any Plan Year in which the Plan is determined to be a "top-heavy plan" as hereinafter defined.

22.3 Minimum Employer Contribution

If the Plan is determined to be a "top heavy plan" for a Plan Year, the Employer Contributions allocated to the Account of each "non-key employee" who is an Eligible Employee and who is employed by an Employer or a Related Company on the last day of such top heavy Plan Year shall be no less than the lesser of (i) three percent of his "compensation" or (ii) the largest percentage of "compensation" that is allocated as an Employer Contribution and/or 401(k) Contribution for such Plan Year to the Account of any "key employee"; except that, in the event the Plan is part of a "required aggregation group", and the Plan enables a defined benefit plan included in such group to meet the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) or 410, the minimum allocation of Employer Contributions to each such "non-key employee" shall be 3% of the "compensation" of such "non key employee". Any minimum allocation to a "non-key employee" required by this Section shall be made without regard to any social security contribution made on behalf of the "non-key employee", his number of hours of service, his level of "compensation", or whether he declined to make elective or mandatory contributions.

Employer Contributions allocated to a Participant's Account in accordance with this Section shall be considered "annual additions" under Article VII for the "limitation year" for which they are made and shall be separately accounted for. Employer Contributions allocated to a Participant's Account shall be

Plan#002                     74                     Contract#51344

allocated upon receipt among the Investment Funds in accordance with the Participant's currently effective investment election.

22.4 Exclusion of Collectively-Bargained Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, Employees who are covered by an agreement that the Secretary of Labor finds to be a collective bargaining agreement between employee representatives and one or more employers shall not be entitled to a minimum allocation or accelerated vesting under this Article, unless otherwise provided in the collective bargaining agreement.

Final 411(a) regulations Compliance Appendix

TO

SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

This Compliance Appendix amends the Plan to comply with final Treasury Regulations issued under Code Section 411(a) addressing the interaction between the anti-cutback requirements of Code Section 411(d)(6) and the nonforfeitability requirements of Code Section 411(a). This Compliance Appendix is intended as good faith compliance with the requirements of the final regulations and is to be construed in accordance with the Treasury Regulations construing Code Section 411(a) and is effective for amendments adopted on or after August 9, 2006.

Accordingly, Section 6.11 of the Plan is amended in its entirety to provide as follows:

6.11Election of Former Vesting Schedule

If there is a change in the vesting schedule because the Plan Sponsor adopts an amendment to the Plan that directly or indirectly affects the computation of a Participant's vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account, the following shall apply:

(a) In no event shall a Participant's vested interest in his Account on the effective date of the change in vesting schedule be less than his vested interest in his Account immediately prior to the effective date of the amendment.

(b) In no event shall a Participant's vested interest in attributable to his Account determined as of the later of (i) the effective date of such amendment or (ii) the date such amendment is adopted, be determined on and after the effective date of such amendment under a vesting schedule that is more restrictive than the vesting schedule applicable to such Account immediately prior to the effective date of such amendment.

(c) Any Participant with 3 or more years of Vesting Service shall have a right to have his vested interest in his Account (including amounts credited to such Account following the effective date of such amendment) continue to be determined under the vesting provisions in effect prior to the amendment rather than under the new vesting provisions, unless the vested interest of the Participant in his Account under the Plan as amended is not at any time less than such vested interest determined without regard to the amendment. A Participant shall exercise his right under this Section by giving written notice of his exercise thereof to the Administrator within 60 days after the latest of (i) the date he receives notice of the amendment from the Administrator, (ii) the effective date of the amendment, or (iii) the date the amendment is adopted.

415 COMPLIANCE APPENDIX

TO

SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

This Appendix amends the Plan to comply with final regulations released on April 4, 2007 under Code Section 401(k) ("401(k) regulations revisions") and Code Section 415 ("final 415 regulations"). This Appendix is intended as good faith compliance with the requirements of the 401(k) regulations revisions and final 415 regulations. To the extent the provisions of the Plan are inconsistent with the provisions of this Appendix, the provisions of this Appendix shall be controlling.

_________________________________________________

1. Effective the first day of the first Plan Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the definition of "Compensation" in Section 1.1 of the Plan is amended by the addition of the following provisions at the end of such definition. This amendment shall have no effect on amounts included as Compensation for periods prior to that date and shall not be construed as creating an inference as to whether post-severance amounts were or were not included in Compensation prior to that date.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, effective for Plan Years beginning on and after July 1, 2007, if a Participant has a severance from employment (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(k)-1(d)(2)) with the Employers and all Related Companies, Compensation shall not include amounts received by the Participant following such severance from employment except as provided below:

• Compensation shall include amounts that would otherwise have been paid to the Participant in the course of his employment and are regular compensation for services during the Participant's regular working hours, compensation for services outside the Participant's regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential pay), commissions, bonuses, or other similar compensation, but only to the extent such amounts (1) would have been includable in Compensation if his employment had continued and (2) are paid before the later of (a) the close of the "limitation year" (as defined in Section 7.1) in which the Participant's severance from employment occurs or (b) within 2 ½ months of such severance.

• Compensation shall include amounts that are payments for accrued bona fide sick, vacation or other leave, but only if (1) the Participant would have been able to use such leave if his employment had continued, (2) such amounts would have been includable in Compensation if his employment had continued, and (3) such amounts are paid before the later of (a) the close of the "limitation year" (as defined in Section 7.1) in which the Participant's severance from employment occurs or (b) within 2 ½ months of such severance.

• Compensation shall include amounts received by the Participant pursuant to a non-qualified, unfunded deferred compensation plan, but only if the Participant would have received such payments at the same time if he had continued in employment and only to the extent the payments (1) are includable in the Participant's gross income and (2) are made before the later of (a) the close of the "limitation year" (as defined in Section 7.1) in which the Participant's severance from employment occurs or (b) within 2 ½ months of such severance.

Plan#002                     79                     Contract#51344

2. Effective beginning the first day of the first limitation year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the following replaces and supersedes the definition of "annual addition" in Section 7.1.

The "annual addition" with respect to a Participant for a "limitation year" means the sum of the following amounts credited to the Participant's account(s) for the "limitation year":

(a) all employer contributions credited to the Participant's account for the "limitation year" under any qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company, including "elective contributions" (other than "elective contributions" to an eligible deferred compensation plan under Code Section 457) and amounts attributable to forfeitures applied to reduce the employer's contribution obligation, but excluding "catch-up contributions";

(b) all "employee contributions" credited to the Participant's account for the "limitation year" under any qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company or any qualified defined benefit plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company if either separate accounts are maintained under the defined benefit plan with respect to such employee contributions or such contributions are mandatory employee contributions within the meaning of Code Section 411(c)(2)(C) (without regard to whether the plan is subject to the provisions of Code Section 411);

(c) all forfeitures credited to the Participant's account for the "limitation year" under any qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer or a Related Company;

(d) all amounts credited for the "limitation year" to an individual medical benefit account, as described in Code Section 415(l)(2), established for the Participant as part of a pension or annuity plan maintained by the Employer or a Related Company;

(e) if the Participant is a key employee, as defined in Code Section 419A(d)(3), all amounts derived from contributions paid or accrued after December 31, 1985, in taxable years ending after that date, that are attributable to post-retirement medical benefits credited for the "limitation year" to the Participant's separate account under a welfare benefit fund, as defined in Code Section 419(e), maintained by the Employer or a Related Company; and

(f) all amounts credited to the Participant for the "limitation year" under a simplified employee pension.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any restorative payment made to a plan by an Employer or a Related Company to make up for losses to the plan resulting from the action or non-action of a fiduciary for which there is a reasonable risk of liability for a breach of fiduciary duty under ERISA or other applicable federal or state law shall not be treated as an annual addition provided that similarly situated participants are treated similarly with respect to the restorative payment.

Except as otherwise specifically provided below, an amount will be treated as credited to a Participant's account for a "limitation year" if such amount is both (1) allocated to the Participant's account as of a date within such "limitation year" (provided that if allocation of an amount is contingent upon the satisfaction of a future condition, such amount shall not be treated as allocated for purposes of determining "annual additions" for a "limitation year" until the date all such conditions are satisfied) and (2) actually contributed to the account within the applicable period described herein. If contributions are made after the end of the applicable period, they shall be treated as credited to the Participant's account for the "limitation year" in which they are made. The applicable period for making "employee contributions" is

Plan#002                     80                     Contract#51344

within 30 days of the close of the "limitation year." The applicable period for making employer contributions is: (i) for contributions by a taxable entity, within 30 days of the close of the period described in Code Section 404(a)(6), as applicable to the entity's taxable year with or within which the "limitation year" ends; or (ii) for contributions by a non-taxable entity (including a governmental employer) within 15 days of the last day of the 10th calendar month following the end of the calendar year or fiscal year (as applicable, based on how the entity maintains its books) with or within which the "limitation year" ends.

Forfeitures re-allocated to a Participant's account are treated as credited to the Participant's account for the "limitation year" in which they are allocated to such account. Corrective contributions and contributions required by reason of qualified military service (as defined in Code Section 414(u)) are treated as "annual additions" for the "limitation year" to which they relate, rather than the "limitation year" in which they are made.

3. Effective beginning the first day of the first limitation year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the definition of "415 compensation" in Section 7.1 of the Plan is amended by the addition of the following provisions at the end of such definition.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, effective for "limitation years" beginning on and after July 1, 2007, if a Participant has a severance from employment (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.415(a)-1(f)(5)) with the Employer and all Related Companies, "415 compensation" does not include amounts received by the Participant following such severance from employment except amounts paid before the later of (a) the close of the "limitation year" in which the Participant's severance from employment occurs or (b) within 2 ½ months of such severance if such amounts:

• would otherwise have been paid to the Participant in the course of his employment, are regular compensation for services during the Participant's regular working hours, compensation for services outside the Participant's regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential pay), commissions, bonuses, or other similar compensation, and would have been included in the Participant's "415 compensation" if he had continued in employment.

• are payments for accrued bona fide sick, vacation or other leave, but only if the Participant would have been able to use such leave if his employment had continued and such amounts would have been includable in "415 compensation" if his employment had continued.

• are received by the Participant pursuant to a non-qualified, unfunded deferred compensation plan, but only if the Participant would have received such payments at the same time if he had continued in employment and only to the extent the payments are includable in the Participant's gross income.

For purposes of this subsection, a Participant will not be considered to have incurred a severance from employment if his new employer continues to maintain the plan with respect to such Participant.

To be included in a Participant's "415 compensation" for a particular "limitation year", an amount must have been received by the Participant (or would have been received, but for the Participant's election under Code Section 125, 132(f)(4), 401(k), 402(h)(1)(B), 403(b), 408(p)(2)(A)(i), or 457) within such "limitation year".

4. Effective beginning the first day of the first Plan Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the definition of "test compensation" in Section 7.1 of the Plan is amended by the addition of the following

Plan#002                     81                     Contract#51344

provisions at the end of such definition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may elect to substitute a different definition of compensation that satisfies the requirements of Code Section 414(s).

If a Participant has a severance from employment (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.401(k)-1(d)(2)) with the Employer and all Related Companies, "test compensation" does not include amounts received by the Participant following such severance from employment except amounts paid before the later of (a) the close of the "limitation year" in which the Participant's severance from employment occurs or (b) within 2 ½ months of such severance if such amounts:

• would otherwise have been paid to the Participant in the course of his employment, are regular compensation for services during the Participant's regular working hours, compensation for services outside the Participant's regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential pay), commissions, bonuses, or other similar compensation, and would have been included in the Participant's "test compensation" if he had continued in employment.

• are payments for accrued bona fide sick, vacation or other leave, but only if the Participant would have been able to use such leave if his employment had continued and such amounts would have been includable in "test compensation" if his employment had continued.

• are received by the Participant pursuant to a non-qualified, unfunded deferred compensation plan, but only if the Participant would have received such payments at the same time if he had continued in employment and only to the extent the payments are includable in the Participant's gross income.

5. Effective beginning the first day of the first limitation year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the following replaces and supersedes Section 7.12 of the Plan.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the "annual addition" with respect to a Participant for a "limitation year" shall in no event exceed the lesser of (i) the maximum dollar amount permitted under Code Section 415(c)(1)(A), adjusted as provided in Code Section 415(d) (e.g., $46,000 for the "limitation year" beginning in 2008) or (ii) 100 percent of the Participant's "415 compensation" for the "limitation year"; provided, however, that the limit in clause (i) shall be pro‑rated for any short "limitation year". The limit in clause (ii) shall not apply to any contribution to an individual medical account, as defined in Code Section 415(l), or to a post-retirement medical benefits account maintained for a key employee which is treated as an "annual addition" under Code Section 419A(d)(2). A Participant's 401(k) Contributions may be re-characterized as Catch-Up 401(k) Contributions and excluded from the Participant's "annual additions" for the "limitation year" to satisfy the preceding limitation.

If the Employer or a Related Company participates in a multiemployer plan, in determining whether the "annual additions" made on behalf of a Participant to the Plan, when aggregated with "annual additions" made on the Participant's behalf under the multiemployer plan satisfy the above limitation, only "annual additions" made by the Employer (or a Related Company) to the multiemployer plan shall be aggregated with the "annual additions" under the Plan and "415 compensation" shall include only compensation paid to the Participant by the Employer (or a Related Company).

If the "annual addition" to the Account of a Participant in any "limitation year" beginning on or after July 1, 2007, nevertheless exceeds the amount that may be applied for his benefit under the limitations described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, correction shall be made in accordance with the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System, as set forth in Revenue Procedure 2006-27, or any superseding guidance.

Plan#002                     82                     Contract#51344

6. Effective beginning the first day of the first limitation year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the following replaces and supersedes Section 7.13 of the Plan.

If a Participant is covered by any other qualified defined contribution plan (whether or not terminated) maintained by an Employer or a Related Company concurrently with the Plan, and if the "annual addition" to be made under the Plan for the "limitation year" when combined with the "annual addition" to be made under such other qualified defined contribution plan(s) would otherwise exceed the amount that may be applied for the Participant's benefit under the limitation contained in the preceding Section, the "annual addition" to be made under the Plan shall be reduced, to the extent necessary so that the limitation in the preceding Section is satisfied.

If the "annual addition" to the Account of a Participant in any "limitation year" beginning on or after July 1, 2007, when combined with the "annual addition" made under any other qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company nevertheless exceeds the amount that may be applied for the Participant's benefit under the limitation contained in the preceding Section, correction shall be made in accordance with the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System, as set forth in Revenue Procedure 2006-27, or any superseding guidance.

Plan#002                     83                     Contract#51344

PPA, HEART, and WRERA COMPLIANCE APPENDIX

TO

SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

This Appendix incorporates the elections made in the PPA, HEART, and WRERA Compliance Election Form adopted by the Sponsor for purposes of amending the Plan to comply with the Pension Protection Act of 2006 ("PPA"), the Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Tax Act of 2008 ("HEART"), the Worker, Retiree, and Employer Recovery Act of 2008 ("WRERA") and applicable guidance. This Appendix, together with the PPA, HEART, and WRERA Compliance Election Form, is intended as good faith compliance with the requirements of the PPA, HEART, and WRERA and applicable guidance. To the extent the provisions of the Plan are inconsistent with the provisions of this Appendix, the provisions of this Appendix shall be controlling.

_________________________________________________

1. Section 6.10 of the Plan is amended by the addition of the following paragraph.

For purposes of determining whether a Participant is 100 percent vested under this Section, a Participant who is absent from employment as an Employee because of military service and who dies after December 31, 2006, while performing qualified military service (as described in the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994) shall be treated as having returned to employment with an Employer or a Related Company immediately prior to his death and as having died while employed by an Employer or a Related Company.

2. Effective as of August 9, 2006, Section 6.11 of the Plan is amended in its entirety to provide as follows.

If there is an amendment to the vesting schedule applicable to a Participant's Employer Contributions Sub-Account because the Sponsor adopts an amendment to the Plan that directly or indirectly affects the computation of a Participant's vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub Account, the following special rules shall apply:

(a) In no event shall a Participant's vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub Account accrued as of the later of (i) the effective date of such amendment or (ii) the date such amendment is adopted, be less than his vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub Account immediately prior to such date.

(b) In no event shall a Participant's vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account accrued as of the later of (i) the effective date of such amendment or (ii) the date such amendment is adopted, be determined on and after the effective date of such amendment under a vesting schedule that is more restrictive than the vesting schedule applicable to such Employer Contributions Sub-Account immediately prior to the effective date of such amendment.

Plan#002                     84                     Contract#51344

(c) Any Participant with 3 or more years of Vesting Service shall have a right to have his vested interest in his Employer Contributions Sub Account (including amounts accrued following the effective date of such amendment) continue to be determined under the vesting provisions in effect prior to the amendment rather than under the new vesting provisions, unless the vested interest of the Participant in his Employer Contributions Sub Account under the Plan as amended is not at any time less than such vested interest determined without regard to the amendment. A Participant shall exercise his right under this Section by giving written notice of his exercise thereof to the Administrator within 60 days after the latest of (i) the date he receives notice of the amendment from the Administrator, (ii) the effective date of the amendment, or (iii) the date the amendment is adopted.

3. The definition of "415 compensation" in Section 7.1 of the Plan is amended by the addition of the following provision.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is absent from employment as a Covered Employee to perform service in the uniformed services (as defined in Chapter 43 of Title 38 of the United States Code), his Compensation will include any differential pay, as defined hereunder, he receives or is entitled to receive from his Employer. For purposes of this paragraph, "differential pay" means any payment made to the Participant by the Employer after December 31, 2008, with respect to a period during which the Participant is performing service in the uniformed services while on active duty for a period of more than 30 days that represents all or a portion of the wages the Participant would have received if he had continued employment with the Employer as a Covered Employee.

4. Section 7.11 of the Plan is amended by the addition of the following.

Effective for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2007, income and loss for the "gap period" shall not be distributed with respect to contributions in excess of any limit described in the preceding Sections of this Article VII.

5. A new Section is added at the end of Article X to provide as follows.

Diversification of Employer Stock

The provisions of this Section shall apply to any Plan that provides for investment in Employer stock if such Employer stock is publicly traded or treated as publicly traded under Code Section 401(a)(35). Employer stock that is not publicly-traded shall be treated as publicly-traded securities if the Employer or any member of its controlled group (determined as provided in Code Section 414(b), but substituting 50 percent for 80 percent) has issued publicly-traded securities, unless neither the Employer nor its parent company has issued either (i) publicly-traded securities or (ii) a special class of stock that grants particular rights to or bears particular risks for the holder or issuer with respect to any member of the controlled group.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Participant whose 401(k) Contributions Sub-Account is invested, in whole or in part, in the Employer stock Investment Fund shall be permitted to divest such investments and re-invest such Sub-Account(s) in other Investment Funds provided under the Plan.

Plan#002                     85                     Contract#51344

A Participant whose Employer Contributions Sub-Account is invested, in whole or in part, in the Employer stock Investment Fund and who is credited with at least 3 years of Vesting Service shall be permitted to divest such investment and re-invest his Employer Contributions Sub-Account in other Investment Funds provided under the Plan.

The Plan shall offer at least three Investment Fund options as alternatives to the Employer stock Investment Fund. Each such alternative Investment Fund shall be diversified and shall have materially different risk and return characteristics.

The Administrator shall notify each eligible Participant of his diversification rights no later than 30 days prior to the date he is first eligible to divest his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund.

The Plan shall not be treated as meeting the requirements of this Section if the Plan imposes any restrictions or conditions on investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund that do not also apply to investment in the other Investment Funds. Prohibited restrictions and conditions include, but are not limited to, provisions that:

• permit a Participant to divest investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund on a less frequent basis than the Participant may divest his investments in any other Investment Fund (e.g., quarterly divestment from the Employer stock Investment Fund, but daily divestment from other Investment Funds);

• treat a Participant who divests his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund less favorably than a Participant who retains such investment (e.g., the Plan provides a higher match rate for Participants who invest in the Employer stock Investment Fund); and

• preclude a Participant who divests his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund from re-investing in the Employer stock Investment Fund for a specified period of time.

The preceding provisions do not preclude the Plan from (a) limiting the extent to which a Participant's Account may be invested in the Employer stock Investment Fund or (b) treating the Employer stock Investment Fund as a closed Investment Fund in which no future contributions are invested and to which no other amounts may be transferred.

The provisions of this Section shall be effective as follows:

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided below with respect to restrictions or conditions on investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund, the diversification requirements shall apply with respect to Employer stock acquired in Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2007.

(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided below, the diversification requirements shall be phased in, beginning with the 2007 Plan Year, with respect to Employer stock acquired in prior Plan Years and shall apply to the applicable percentage of such Employer stock, as determined for each Plan Year based on the chart below:

Plan#002                     86                     Contract#51344

Plan Year	Applicable Percentage
1st Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2007	33%
2nd Plan Year	66%

Final Employer Stock Diversification Regulations

COMPLIANCE APPENDIX

TO

PDSCustom-Fit™ Volume Submitter 401(k) Savings/PS Plan

This Appendix is adopted by the "volume submitter practitioner" (as defined in Section 16.2 of the Plan) to reflect final Treasury regulations released May 11, 2010 interpreting the provisions of the Pension Protection Act of 2006 ("PPA") regarding requirements for diversification of Employer stock that are applicable to qualified defined contribution plans. To the extent the provisions of the Plan, including a prior Compliance Appendix addressing PPA changes, are inconsistent with the provisions of this Appendix, the provisions of this Appendix shall be controlling. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Plan includes a HEART (Notice 2010-15) Compliance Appendix that includes specific provisions regarding Employer stock diversification, the provisions of the more specific Appendix shall continue to apply.

Capitalized terms used in this Appendix refer to those terms as defined and used in the EGTRRA version of volume submitter specimen plan M580395a. If the Plan has been modified to substitute a different term for the defined term used in the EGTRRA document, the provisions of the Appendix shall be deemed to apply as if reference were made to the modified term used in the Plan.

References to provisions by Article and title are to the provisions associated with the Article and title in the EGTRRA version of volume submitter specimen plan M580395a. If the Plan has been modified in such a way that the Article numbers or titles have been changed, references are to the provisions in the Plan that are associated with the Article numbers or titles in the EGTRRA document.

_________________________________________________

The provisions of this Appendix apply only with respect to a Plan that provides for investment in Employer stock that is publicly traded or treated as publicly traded under the final regulations. The provisions of this Appendix do NOT apply to an ESOP that (1) does not include any contributions to which Code Section 401(k) or 401(m) apply and (2) is separate from any other plan maintained by the Employer for purposes of Code Section 414(l) .

_________________________________________________

The Section of Article X entitled "Diversification of Employer Stock", as added by the PPA, HEART and WRERA Compliance Appendix, if applicable, is revised in its entirety to provide as follows.

Diversification of Employer Stock

The provisions of this Section shall apply to any Plan that provides for investment in Employer stock if such Employer stock is publicly traded or treated as publicly traded under Code Section 401(a)(35). Employer stock that is not publicly-traded shall be treated as publicly-traded securities if the Employer or any member of its controlled group (determined as provided in Code Section 414(b), but substituting 50 percent for 80 percent) has issued publicly-traded securities, unless neither the Employer nor its parent company has issued either (i) publicly-traded securities or (ii) a special class of stock that grants particular rights to or bears particular risks for the holder or issuer with respect to any member of the controlled group.

SCI 401(K) Retirement Savings Plan                                    51344-1

Subject to the effective date provisions of this Section, but notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent the Plan provides for 401(k) Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, and/or Rollover Contributions and permits any or all of such contributions to be invested in the Employer stock Investment Fund, a Participant whose 401(k), After-Tax, and/or Rollover Contributions Sub-Accounts are invested, in whole or in part, in the Employer stock Investment Fund shall be permitted to divest such investments and re-invest such Sub-Account(s) in other Investment Funds provided under the Plan. This paragraph shall also apply to an alternate payee who has an Account under the Plan and the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant.

To the extent the Plan provides for Employer Contributions and permits such contributions to be invested in the Employer stock Investment Fund, a Participant whose Employer Contributions Sub-Account is invested, in whole or in part, in the Employer stock Investment Fundshall be permitted to divest such investment and re-invest his Employer Contributions Sub-Account in other Investment Funds provided under the Plan beginning on the date he completes 3 years of Vesting Service or, if the Plan does not credit Vesting Service, the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of his date of hire. This paragraph shall also apply to an alternate payee who has an Account under the Plan with respect to a Participant who meets the requirements of this paragraph and the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant.

The Plan shall offer at least 3 Investment Fund options (other than employer securities) as alternatives to the Employer stock Investment Fund. Each such alternative Investment Fund shall be diversified and shall have materially different risk and return characteristics.

The Administrator shall notify each eligible Participant of his diversification rights no later than 30 days prior to the date he is first eligible to divest his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund.

Except as otherwise specifically provided below, the Plan shall not be treated as meeting the requirements of this Section if the Plan imposes any restrictions or conditions on investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund, either directly or indirectly, that do not also apply to investment in the other Investment Funds. A prohibited restriction or condition means:

• conditioning a benefit on investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund or

• restricting a Participant's right to divest his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund if such restriction does not also apply to the Participant's right to divest his investment in any other Investment Fund

Examples of prohibited restrictions and conditions include, but are not limited to, provisions that:

• permit a Participant to divest investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund on a less frequent basis than the Participant may divest his investments in any other Investment Fund (e.g., quarterly divestment from the Employer stock Investment Fund, but daily divestment from other Investment Funds)

• treat a Participant who divests his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund less favorably than a Participant who retains such investment (e.g., the Plan provides a higher match rate for Participants who invest in the Employer stock Investment Fund)

SCI 401(K) Retirement Savings Plan                                    51344-1

• preclude a Participant who divests his investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund from re-investing in the Employer stock Investment Fund for a specified period of time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following restrictions or conditions may be imposed under the Plan:

• The Plan may limit the extent to which a Participant's Account may be invested in the Employer stock Investment Fund, provided such limit applies without regard to a Participant's prior exercise of rights to divest investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund.

• The Plan may impose reasonable restrictions on the timing and number of investment elections a Participant may make with respect to the Employer stock Investment Fund, provided the restrictions are designed to limit short-term trading in Employer stock.

• The Plan will not be considered to condition a benefit on investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund if it imposes fees on other Investment Funds that are not imposed on the Employer stock Investment Fund.

• The Plan will not be considered to have impermissibly restricted diversification of investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund if it imposes a reasonable fee for the divestment of Employer stock.

• The Plan may allow transfers into or out of a stable value or similar Investment Fund more frequently than it allows transfers into or out of the Employer stock Investment Fund. A stable value of similar Investment Fund means an Investment Fund designed to preserve principal and provide a reasonable rate of return, while providing liquidity.

• The Plan may allow transfers out of a qualified default investment option, within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulations Section 2550.404c-5(e), more frequently than it allows transfers out of the Employer stock Investment Fund.

• The Plan may treat the Employer stock Investment Fund as a closed Investment Fund in which no future contributions are invested and to which no other amounts may be transferred. (The Plan may provide for dividends paid on Employer stock held under the Plan to be re-invested in the Employer stock Investment Fund without violating this requirement.If the Plan is an ESOP that provides for Matching Contributions, the Plan will not violate this requirement if it provides for the release of Employer stock in the form of Matching Contributions from a suspense account holding Employer stock acquired in a Plan Year beginning before January 1, 2007, with the proceeds of an exempt loan that has not been refinanced after the end of the last Plan Year beginning before January 1, 2007.)

The provisions of this Section shall be effective as follows:

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided below with respect to restrictions or conditions on investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund, the diversification requirements shall apply with respect to Employer stock acquired in Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2007; provided that for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2007 and before January 1, 2011, the Plan may be administered in accordance with (1) Notice

SCI 401(K) Retirement Savings Plan                                    51344-1

2006-107, (2) the proposed regulations issued in January, 2008, or (3) the foregoing provisions.

(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided below, the diversification requirements shall be phased in, beginning with the 2007 Plan Year, with respect to Employer stock acquired in prior Plan Years and shall apply to the applicable percentage of such Employer stock, as determined for each Plan Year based on the chart below:

Plan Year	Applicable Percentage
1st Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2007	33%
2nd Plan Year	66%
3rd Plan Year	100%

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b), if a Participant is age 55 and has completed 3 years of Vesting Service before the first day of the 2007 Plan Year, the diversification requirements shall apply to the Participant's full investment in the Employer stock Investment Fund.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, any restriction or condition on investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund that was in effect on December 18, 2006, and that either (1) applied to all Investment Funds other than a stable value Investment Fund or (2) provided for divestment of investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund on a less frequent basis than divestment was permitted with respect to other Investment Funds, may continue to be applied through December 31, 2007, but, except as otherwise provided above, may no longer be applied on or after January 1, 2008.

(e) Any other restriction or condition on investments in the Employer stock Investment Fund that was in effect on December 18, 2006, may continue to be applied through March 30, 2007, but, except as otherwise provided above, may no longer be applied on or after March 31, 2007.
