described in Articles III through VII, as of the Separation Date or such other
date(s) as set out herein or as Millipore and Mykrolis may mutually agree.
Except as specified otherwise in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall

any respect any Mykrolis Plan, any benefit under any Mykrolis Plan or any trust,
insurance policy or funding vehicle related to any Mykrolis Plans, or any
employment or other service arrangement with the Mykrolis Employees or vendors
(to the extent permitted by law).
2.4 TERMS OF PARTICIPATION BY MYKROLIS EMPLOYEES IN MYKROLIS PLANS.
(a) NON-DUPLICATION OF BENEFITS. Except as specified otherwise in
the Agreement, as of the Separation Date, or other later date that applies
to the particular Mykrolis Plan established thereafter, the Mykrolis Plans
shall be, with respect to Mykrolis Employees, in all respects the
successors in interest to, and shall not provide benefits that duplicate
benefits provided by, the corresponding Millipore Plans. Millipore and
Mykrolis shall agree on methods and procedures, including amending the
respective
-6-
Plan documents, to prevent Mykrolis Employees from receiving
duplicate benefits from the Millipore Plans and the Mykrolis Plans.
(b) SERVICE CREDIT. Except as specified otherwise in this Agreement,
with respect to Mykrolis Employees, each Mykrolis Plan shall provide that
all service, all compensation and all other benefit-affecting
determinations that, as of the Separation Date, were recognized under the
corresponding Millipore Plan shall, as of the Separation Date, receive full
recognition and credit and be taken into account under such Mykrolis Plan
to the same extent as if such items occurred under such Mykrolis Plan,
except to the extent that duplication of benefits would result. The service
crediting provisions shall be subject to any respectively applicable
"service bridging," "break in service," "employment date," or "eligibility
date" rules under the Mykrolis Plans and the Millipore Plans.
(c) ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES. Except as specified otherwise in this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the exception applicable to self-
insured long-term disability and workers compensation plans), the
provisions of this Agreement for the transfer of assets relating to
Millipore Plans to Mykrolis and/or the appropriate Mykrolis Plans are based
upon the understanding of the parties that Mykrolis and/or the appropriate
Mykrolis Plan shall assume all liabilities of the corresponding Millipore
Plan to or relating to Mykrolis Employees, as provided for herein.
2.5 BENEFITS COMMITTEE. From the date of this Agreement through the later
of the Distribution Date or the end of the Post-Distribution Period, as
applicable, the management of the Plans shall be conducted under the supervision
of the Millipore Vice President, Human Resources, and the Mykrolis Vice
President, Human Resources (or his authorized delegate). Issues that cannot be
resolved by the Benefits Committee shall be decided, at the request of either
party, by a designated representative of the Mykrolis Corporate Executive
Committee and a designated representative of the Millipore Corporate Executive
Committee.
2.6 FOREIGN PLANS. Mykrolis and Millipore each intend that the matters,
issues or liabilities relating to, arising out of, or resulting from Foreign
Plans and non-U.S.-related employment matters be handled in a manner that is in
compliance with the requirements of applicable local law and, to the extent
permitted by applicable local law, in a manner consistent with comparable U.S.
matters, issues or liabilities as reflected in this Agreement. Without in any
way limiting the general principle set forth in the preceding sentence, Schedule
2.6 sets forth the manner in which certain existing Millipore Foreign Plans in
non-U.S. jurisdictions shall be handled, effective as of the Separation Date (or
such other date(s)) as Millipore and Mykrolis may mutually agree) consistent
with the provisions of this Section 2.6 or as permitted under applicable local
law. To the extent that any existing Millipore Foreign Plan is not contained on
Schedule 2.6 either due to mistake or omission, the parties agree to amend the
Schedule 2.6 to include such Plans. n
2.7 CERTAIN TRANSFERS OF EMPLOYEES BETWEEN MILLIPORE AND MYKROLIS. If any
Mykrolis Employee (who was formerly employed by Millipore) is rehired by
Millipore, with the consent of Mykrolis, within the 24-month period following
the Separation Date, all service of such Employee with, and compensation from,
Mykrolis after the Separation
-7-
Date shall be counted under all applicable Millipore benefit plans as if it were
service with, and compensation from, Millipore, and to the extent practicable,
such Employee shall be treated as if he had not terminated service with
Millipore. If any Millipore Employee is hired by Mykrolis, with the consent of
Millipore, within the 24-month period following the Separation Date, all service
of such Employee with, and compensation from, Millipore before and after the
Separation Date shall be counted under all applicable Mykrolis benefit plans as
if it were service with, and compensation from, Mykrolis, and to the extent
practicable, such Employee shall be treated as if he had transferred employment
to Mykrolis as of the Separation Date.
ARTICLE III
401(k) PLAN
3.1 401(k) PLAN. Effective as of the Separation Date (or such other
date as Millipore and Mykrolis may mutually agree), Mykrolis shall establish or
cause to be established a separate plan and trust which are intended to be tax-
qualified under Code Section 401(a) and 401(k), to be exempt from taxation under
Code Section 501(a)(1), and to be known as the Mykrolis Savings and Investment
Plan, to which Mykrolis Employees may make salary reduction contributions and
Mykrolis can make matching contributions and discretionary profit sharing
contributions. To the extent that Mykrolis makes a discretionary profit sharing
contribution to the Mykrolis Savings and Investment Plan for 2001, it shall make
such contribution with respect to compensation of plan participants that was
earned from Millipore and Mykrolis during 2001.
3.2 TRANSFER OF ACCOUNTS FROM MILLIPORE 401(k) PLAN. As soon as
practicable after the Separation Date (or such other date as Millipore and
Mykrolis may mutually agree), Millipore shall cause to be transferred to the
Mykrolis Savings and Investment Plan the accounts in the Millipore 401(k) Plan
that are attributable to Mykrolis Employees. As a result of the transfer of
such accounts from the Millipore 401(k) Plan, the Mykrolis Savings and
Investment Plan shall hold as part of its assets Millipore employer securities.
Mykrolis shall assume sole responsibility for ensuring that the Mykrolis Savings
and Investment Plan's company stock fund, and the Millipore stock held in such
fund, are maintained in compliance with all requirements of the SEC. In
addition, effective as of the Separation Date (or such other date as Millipore
and Mykrolis may mutually agree), Millipore shall cause any participant loans
held in the Millipore 401(k) Plan that are attributable to Mykrolis Employees to
be assigned to the Trustee of the Mykrolis Savings and Investment Plan to enable
such MYKROLIS Employees to continue to repay such loans through payroll
deduction, and after such assignment such Mykrolis Employees shall repay such
loans to the Mykrolis Savings and Investment Plan only.
ARTICLE IV
NON-QUALIFIED PLANS
4.1 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS.
(a) ESTABLISHMENT OF Mykrolis RABBI TRUST. Effective on or before
the Separation Date (or such other date as Millipore and MYKROLIS may
mutually
-8-
agree), Mykrolis shall establish the Mykrolis Deferred Compensation Plan
and the Mykrolis Rabbi Trust.
(b) ALLOCATION AND ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES. As of the date that
Mykrolis establishes the Mykrolis Deferred Compensation Plan, Millipore
shall determine the amount of liabilities under the Millipore Deferred
Compensation Plan and the Millipore SERP, attributable to Mykrolis
Employees. As soon as administratively practicable thereafter, Millipore
shall pay to Mykrolis or to the trustee of the Mykrolis Rabbi Trust, as
Mykrolis specified, an amount of Millipore's assets equal to the
liabilities under the Millipore Deferred Compensation Plan. Coincident with
the receipt of such transfer of assets, Mykrolis shall assume all
responsibilities and obligations relating to, arising out of, or resulting
