WHEREAS, the experience of the Participant, his knowledge of the affairs of the Plan Sponsor, his reputation and contacts in the industry are so valuable that assurance of his continued services is essential for the future growth and profits of the Plan Sponsor and it is in the best interests of the Plan Sponsor to arrange terms of continued employment for the Participant so as to reasonably assure his remaining in the Plan Sponsor's employment during his lifetime or until the age of retirement;

ARTICLE 3

BENEFITS

3.1 Normal Retirement Benefit. If the Participant remains in the service of the Plan Sponsor until reaching his Normal Retirement Age, the Participant shall be entitled to his Normal Retirement Benefit. The annual installments shall commence to be paid on the on the first day of the second month following the Participant's Separation

from Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Participant is determined by the Plan Administrator to be a Specified Employee, the first benefit payment shall be paid on the first day of the seventh month following Separation from Service, but all subsequent annual payments will be paid in accordance with the original schedule as if the individual was not a Specified Employee.

3.2 Death Prior to Commencement of Benefit Payments. In the event the Participant should die while actively employed by the Plan Sponsor at any time after the date of this Plan but prior to his Normal Retirement Age, the Plan Sponsor will pay the Accrued Benefit in fifteen (15) equal annual installments to the Participant's Beneficiary. The payments shall commence to be paid on the first day of the second month following the month in which the Participant dies.

3.3 Death Subsequent to Commencement of Benefit Payments. In the event the Participant dies while receiving payments, but prior to receiving the fifteen (15) annual installment payments due and owing hereunder, the unpaid balance of the payments shall continue to be paid to the Participant's Beneficiary for the balance of the fifteen (15) annual installments.

3.4 Disability Benefit. In the event the Participant becomes Disabled prior to the date the Participant dies or experiences a Separation from Service, and prior to the date of a Change in Control, the Participant shall be entitled to receive his Accrued Benefit, calculated as of the date of determination of Disability. Such benefit shall commence to be paid on the first day of the month following Normal Retirement Age or death (whichever occurs first) , and shall be paid in fifteen (15) equal annual installments.

3.5 Separation from Service Benefit. If the Participant experiences a Separation from Service prior to Normal Retirement Age, death, Disability, or as described in the second paragraph of Section 3.6, then the Participant shall be entitled to a benefit equal to the Accrued Benefit, calculated as of the date of Separation from Service. Such benefit shall commence to be paid on the first day of the second month following the month in which the Participant achieves Normal Retirement Age or dies (whichever occurs first), and shall be paid in fifteen (15) equal annual installments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Participant is determined by the Plan Administrator to be a Specified Employee, the first benefit payment shall be paid on the later of (i) the first day of the second month following the month in which the Participant achieves Normal Retirement Age or (ii) the first day of the seventh month following Separation from Service (except in the case of a Separation from Service due to death). In the event that (ii) applies, all subsequent annual payments will be paid in accordance with the original schedule as if the individual was not a Specified Employee.

3.6 Change in Control Benefit. In the event there is a Change in Control prior to the Participant's Normal Retirement Age, and prior to the date the Participant

dies, becomes Disabled or experiences a Separation from Service, the Participant’s benefit under this Plan shall be equal to the Participant’s Accrued Benefit calculated as of any subsequent Separation from Service following the Change in Control; provided, however, that in calculating the Executive’s Accrued Benefit under Section 1.1, the numerator in the fraction shall be increased as if the Executive had accrued an additional 36 months of service (“Change in Control Benefit”). If the Participant does not experience a Separation from Service within 24 months after the Change in Control, subject to Section 3.2, the Change in Control Benefit shall commence to be paid on the first day of the second month following the later of, (i) Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if the Participant is a Specified Employee, on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant's Separation from Service); or (ii) the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age or dies.

Notwithstanding the preceding, if the Participant experiences a Separation from Service within 24 months following the Change in Control, the following provisions apply. The Participant's Change in Control Benefit shall commence to be paid on the first day of the second month following the Participant's Separation from Service (or, if the Participant is a Specified Employee, on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant's Separation from Service). In lieu of receiving the Change in Control Benefit in fifteen (15) annual installments, the Participant may elect to receive the Change in Control Benefit pursuant to this Section 3.6 in the form of (i) a lump sum, (ii) equal annual installments over two (2) years, or (iii) equal annual installments over five (5) years. In the event the Participant elects one of the alternate forms of benefit noted in this Section 3.6, a 4.0% discount rate will be used to value the actuarial equivalent benefit amount. Any election by the Participant pursuant to this Section 3.6 must be submitted to the Plan Sponsor by the date the Participant initially becomes eligible to participate in the Plan.

3.7 Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if the Plan Sponsor terminates the Participant's employment for “Cause”, then the Participant shall not be entitled to any benefits under the terms of this Plan.

3.8 Prohibition on Acceleration of Payments. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, neither the Plan Sponsor nor a Participant may accelerate the time or schedule of any payment or amount scheduled to be paid under this Plan, except that the Plan Sponsor, in its discretion, may accelerate payments as permitted by Treasury Regulations §1.409A-3(j)(4). The Plan Sponsor shall deny any change made to an election if the Plan Sponsor determines that the change violates the requirements of authoritative guidance.

3.9 Subsequent Changes in the Time or Form of Payment. If permitted by the Plan Sponsor, a Participant may elect to change the time or form of payments (collectively, “payment elections”), provided the following conditions are met:

(a) Such change will not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the new payment election is made and approved by the Plan Administrator;

(b) If the change of payment election relates to a payment based on Separation from Service, or if the payment is at a specified time or pursuant to a fixed schedule, the change of payment election must result in payment being deferred for a period of not less than five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been paid (or in the case of a life annuity or installment payments, which are treated as a single payment, five (5) years from the date the first amount was scheduled to be paid);

(c) If the change of payment election relates to a payment at a specified time or pursuant to a fixed schedule, the Participant or Plan Sponsor must make the change of payment election not less than twelve (12) months before the date the payment is scheduled to be paid (or in the case of a life annuity or installment payments, which are treated as a single payment, twelve (12) months before the date the first amount was scheduled to be paid).

Notwithstanding the preceding, to the extent permitted under Section 409A and by the Plan Sponsor, the Participant may elect the timing and manner of distributions during 2008 (except that a Participant cannot in 2008 change payment elections with respect to payments that the Participant would otherwise receive in 2008, or make an election that causes payments scheduled for subsequent years to be made in 2008), and such election shall not be treated as a change in the form and timing of payment or an acceleration of payment under Section 409A.

3.10 Delay in Payment by Plan Sponsor.

(a) A payment may be delayed to a date after the designated payment date under any of the circumstances described below, and the provision will not fail to meet the requirements of establishing a permissible payment event. The delay in the payment will not constitute a subsequent deferral election, so long as the Plan Sponsor treats all payments to similarly situated Participants on a reasonably consistent basis.

(i) Payments subject to Section 162(m). A payment may be delayed to the extent that the Plan Sponsor reasonably anticipates that if the payment were made as scheduled, the Plan Sponsor's deduction with respect to such payment would not be permitted due to the application of Code §162(m). If a payment is delayed, such payment must be made either:

(1) during the Participant's first Taxable Year in which the Plan Sponsor reasonably anticipates, or should reasonably anticipate, that if the

payment is made during such year, the deduction of such payment will not be barred by application of Code §162(m) or,

(2) during the period beginning with the date of the Participant's Separation from Service and ending on the later of the last day of the Taxable Year of the Plan Sponsor in which the Participant separates from service or the 15th day of the third month following the Participant's Separation from Service. Where any scheduled payment to a specific Participant in the Plan Sponsor's Taxable Year is delayed in accordance with this Article, the delay in payment will be treated as a subsequent deferral election unless all scheduled payments to the Participant that could be delayed in accordance with this Article are also delayed. Where the payment is delayed to a date on or after the Participant's Separation from Service, the payment will be considered a payment upon a Separation from Service for purposes of the rules under Treasury Regulations §1.409A-3(i)(2) (payments to Specified Employees upon a Separation from Service) and, the 6 month delay rule will apply for Specified Employees.

(ii) Payments that would violate Federal securities laws or other applicable law. A payment may be delayed where the Plan Sponsor reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will violate Federal securities laws or other applicable law provided that the payment is made at the earliest date at which the Plan Sponsor reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will not cause such violation. The making of a payment that would cause inclusion in gross income or the application of any penalty provision or other provision of the Internal Revenue Code is not treated as a violation of applicable law.

(iii) Other events and conditions. The Plan Sponsor may delay a payment upon such other events and conditions as the Commissioner of the IRS may prescribe.

(iv) Notwithstanding the above, a payment may be delayed where the payment would jeopardize the ability of the Plan Sponsor to continue as a going concern.

(b) Treatment of Payment as Made on Designated Payment Date. Each payment under this Plan is deemed made on the required payment date even if the payment is made after such date, provided the payment is made by the latest of: (i) the end of the calendar year in which the payment is due; (ii) the 15th day of the third calendar month following the payment due date; (iii) in case the Plan Sponsor cannot calculate the payment amount on account of administrative impracticality which is beyond the Participant's control (or the control of the Participant's estate), in the first calendar year in which payment is practicable; (iv) in the case where the payment would jeopardize the ability of the Plan Sponsor to continue as a going concern, in the first calendar year in which the making of the payment would not have such effect.

3.11 Unsecured General Creditor Status of Participant:

(a) Payment to the Participant or any Beneficiary hereunder shall be made from assets which shall continue, for all purposes, to be part of the general, unrestricted assets of the Plan Sponsor and no person shall have any interest in any such asset by virtue of any provision of this Plan. The Plan Sponsor's obligation hereunder shall be an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Plan Sponsor under the provisions hereof, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Plan Sponsor and no such person shall have or acquire any legal or equitable right, interest, or claim in or to any property or assets of the Plan Sponsor.

(b) In the event that the Plan Sponsor purchases an insurance policy or policies insuring the life of a Participant or employee, to allow the Plan Sponsor to recover or meet the cost of providing benefits, in whole or in part, hereunder, no Participant or Beneficiary shall have any rights whatsoever in said policy or the proceeds therefrom. The Plan Sponsor or the Trustee of the Trust (if any) shall be the primary owner and beneficiary of any such insurance policy or property and shall possess and may exercise all incidents of ownership therein. No insurance policy with regard to any director, “highly compensated employee”, or “highly compensated individual” as defined in IRS Section 101(j) shall be acquired before satisfying the Section 101(j) “Notice and Consent” requirements.

(c) In the event that the Plan Sponsor purchases an insurance policy or policies on the life of a Participant as provided for above, then all of such policies shall be subject to the claims of the creditors of the Plan Sponsor.

(d) If the Plan Sponsor chooses to obtain insurance on the life of a Participant in connection with its obligations under this Plan, the Participant hereby agrees to take such physical examinations and to truthfully and completely supply such information as may be required by the Plan Sponsor or the insurance company designated by the Plan Sponsor.

3.12 Facility of Payment. If a distribution is to be made to a minor, or to a person who is otherwise incompetent, then the Plan Administrator may make such distribution: (i) to the legal guardian, or if none, to a parent of a minor payee with whom the payee maintains his or her residence; or (ii) to the conservator or administrator or, if none, to the person having custody of an incompetent payee. Any such distribution shall fully discharge the Plan Sponsor and the Plan Administrator from further liability on account thereof.

3.13 Net after tax benefit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, if payments made under Section 3.6 of this Plan or otherwise from the Plan Sponsor or any affiliate of the Plan Sponsor are considered “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (such payments hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”), then such payments shall be reduced to the greatest amount that may be paid to the Participant under Section 280G of the Code without causing any loss of deduction to the Plan Sponsor or its affiliates under such section (hereinafter referred to as the “Reduced Payments”), however, the payments or benefits shall not be reduced if the net after tax benefit to the Participant of receiving the Total Payments exceeds the net after tax benefit of receiving the Reduced Payments by at least $50,000. “Net after tax benefit” for purposes of this Plan shall mean the sum of the present value of (i) the Total Payments or Reduced Payments (as applicable), less (ii) the amount of federal, state and local income and payroll taxes payable with respect to the foregoing calculated at the maximum marginal tax rates expected for each year in which the foregoing shall be paid to the Participant (based upon the rates in effect as set forth in the Code under state and local laws at the time of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Plan Sponsor), less (iii) the amount of excise taxes imposed with respect to the payments and benefits described in (i) above by Section 4999 of the Code. The determination as to whether and to what extent payments are required to be reduced in accordance with this Section 3.13 shall be made at the Plan Sponsor’s expense by an accounting firm, consulting firm or law firm experienced in such matters. Any reduction in payments required by this Section 3.13 shall occur in the following order: (i) any cash severance, (ii) any other cash amount payable to the Participant and treated entirely as a “parachute payment”, (iii) any benefit valued entirely as a “parachute payment,” (iv) the acceleration of vesting of any equity award that is treated entirely as a “parachute payment”, (v) the acceleration of vesting of any equity awards that are time-vested options, and (vi) the acceleration of vesting of any other time-vested equity awards. Within any such category of payments and benefits, a reduction shall occur first with respect to amounts that are not “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and then with respect to amounts that are. In the event that acceleration of compensation from equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be canceled, subject to the immediately preceding sentence, in the reverse order of the date of grant.

(a) The Participant may designate any person or persons (who may be named contingently or successively) to receive any benefits payable under the Plan upon the Participant's death, and the designation may be changed from time to time by the Participant by filing a new designation. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the Participant and shall be in the form prescribed by the Administrator, and shall be effective only when filed in writing with the Administrator during the Participant's lifetime.

(b) In the absence of a valid Beneficiary designation, or if, at the time any benefit payment is due to a Beneficiary, there is no living Beneficiary validly named by the Participant, the Plan Sponsor shall pay the benefit payment to the Participant's spouse, if then living, and if the spouse is not then living to the Participant's then living descendants, if any, per stirpes, and if there are no living descendants, to the Participant's estate. In determining the existence or identity of anyone entitled to a benefit payment, the Plan Sponsor may rely conclusively upon information supplied by the Participant's personal representative, executor, or administrator.

(c) If a question arises as to the existence or identity of anyone entitled to receive a death benefit payment under the Plan, or if a dispute arises with respect to any death benefit payment under the Plan, the Plan Sponsor may distribute the payment to the Participant's estate without liability for any tax or other consequences, or may take any other action which the Plan Sponsor deems to be appropriate.

5.2 Information to be Furnished by Participants and Beneficiaries; Inability to Locate Participants or Beneficiaries. Any communication, statement, or notice addressed to the Participant or to a Beneficiary at his or her last post office address as shown on the Plan Sponsor's records shall be binding on the Participant or Beneficiary for all purposes of this Plan.

ARTICLE 7

CLAIMS PROCEDURE

7.1 Claims Procedures. This Section 7.1 is based on final regulations issued by the Department of Labor and published in the Federal Register on November 21, 2000 and codified at section 2560.503 -1 of the Department of Labor Regulations. If any

provision of this Section 8.4 conflicts with the requirements of those regulations, the requirements of those regulations will prevail.

(a) Initial Claim. A Participant or Beneficiary who believes he or she is entitled to any Benefit (a “Claimant”) under this Plan may file a claim with the Administrator. The Administrator will review the claim itself or appoint another individual or entity to review the claim.

(i) Benefit Claims that do not Require a Determination of Disability. If the claim is for a benefit other than a disability benefit, the Claimant will be notified within ninety (90) days after the claim is filed whether the claim is allowed or denied, unless the Claimant receives written notice from the Administrator or appointee of the Administrator before the end of the ninety (90) day period stating that special circumstances require an extension of the time for decision, such extension not to extend beyond the day which is one hundred eighty (180) days after the day the claim is filed.

(ii) Disability Benefit Claims. In the case of a benefits claim that requires a determination by the Plan Administrator of a Participant's disability status, the Plan Administrator will notify the Claimant of the Plan's adverse benefit determination within a reasonable period of time, but not later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of the claim. If, due to matters beyond the control of the Plan, the Plan Administrator needs additional time to process a claim, the Claimant will be notified, within forty-five (45) days after the Plan Administrator receives the claim, of those circumstances and of when the Plan Administrator expects to make its decision but not beyond seventy- five (75) days. If, prior to the end of the extension period, due to matters beyond the control of the Plan, a decision cannot be rendered within that extension period, the period for making the determination may be extended for up to one hundred five (105) days, provided that the Plan Administrator notifies the Claimant of the circumstances requiring the extension and the date as of which the Plan expects to render a decision. The extension notice will specifically explain the standards on which entitlement to a disability benefit is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim and the additional information needed from the Claimant to resolve those issues, and the Claimant will be afforded at least forty-five (45) days within which to provide the specified information.

(iii) Manner and Content of Denial of Initial Claims. If the Plan Administrator denies a claim, it must provide to the Claimant, in writing or by electronic communication:

(A) The specific reasons for the denial;

(B) A reference to the Plan provision or insurance contract provision upon which the denial is based;

(C) A description of any additional information or material that the Claimant must provide in order to perfect the claim;

(D) An explanation of why such additional material or information is necessary;

(E) Notice that the Claimant has a right to request a review of the claim denial and information on the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to request a review of the claim denial; and

(F) A statement of the participant's right to bring a civil action under ERISA section 502(a) following a denial on review of the initial denial.

In addition, in the case of a denial of disability benefits on the basis of the Plan Administrator's independent determination of the Participant's disability status, the Plan Administrator will provide a copy of any rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion relied upon in making the adverse determination (or a statement that the same will be provided upon request by the Claimant and without charge).

(b) Review Procedures.

(i) Benefit Claims that do not Require a Determination of Disability. Except for claims requiring an independent determination of a Participant's disability status, a request for review of a denied claim must be made in writing to the Plan Administrator within sixty (60) days after receiving notice of denial. The decision upon review will be made within sixty (60) days after the Plan Administrator's receipt of a request for review, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which case a decision will be rendered not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a request for review. A notice of such an extension must be provided to the Claimant within the initial sixty (60) day period and must explain the special circumstances and provide an expected date of decision.

The reviewer will afford the Claimant an opportunity to review and receive, without charge, all relevant documents, information and records and to submit issues and comments in writing to the Plan Administrator. The reviewer will take into account all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim regardless of whether the information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

(ii) Disability Benefit Claims. In addition to having the right to review documents and submit comments as described in (i) above, a Claimant whose claim for disability benefits requires an independent determination by the Plan Administrator of the Participant's disability status has at least one hundred eighty (180)

days following receipt of a notification of an adverse benefit determination within which to request a review of the initial determination. In such cases, the review will meet the following requirements:

(A) The Plan will provide a review that does not afford deference to the initial adverse benefit determination and that is conducted by an appropriate named fiduciary of the Plan who did not make the initial determination that is the subject of the appeal, nor is a subordinate of the individual who made the determination.

(B) The appropriate named fiduciary of the Plan will consult with a health care professional who has appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment before making a decision on review of any adverse initial determination based in whole or in part on a medical judgment. The professional engaged for purposes of a consultation in the preceding sentence will not be an individual who was consulted in connection with the initial determination that is the subject of the appeal or the subordinate of any such individual.

(C) The Plan will identify to the Claimant the medical or vocational experts whose advice was obtained on behalf of the Plan in connection with the review, without regard to whether the advice was relied upon in making the benefit review determination.

(D) The decision on review will be made within forty-five (45) days after the Plan Administrator's receipt of a request for review, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which case a decision will be rendered not later than ninety (90) days after receipt of a request for review. A notice of such an extension must be provided to the Claimant within the initial forty-five (45) day period and must explain the special circumstances and provide an expected date of decision.

(iii) Manner and Content of Notice of Decision on Review. Upon completion of its review of an adverse initial claim determination, the Plan Administrator will give the Claimant, in writing or by electronic notification, a notice containing:

(A) its decision;

(B) the specific reasons for the decision;

(D) a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and without charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information in the Plan's files which is relevant to the Claimant's claim for benefits;

(E) a statement describing the Claimant's right to bring an action for judicial review under ERISA section 502(a); and

(F) if an internal rule, guideline, protocol or other similar criterion was relied upon in making the adverse determination on review, a statement that a copy of the rule, guideline, protocol or other similar criterion will be provided without charge to the Claimant upon request.

(c) Calculation of Time Periods. For purposes of the time periods specified in this Section, the period of time during which a benefit determination is required to be made begins at the time a claim is filed in accordance with the Plan procedures without regard to whether all the information necessary to make a decision accompanies the claim. If a period of time is extended due to a Claimant's failure to submit all information necessary, the period for making the determination shall be tolled from the date the notification is sent to the Claimant until the date the Claimant responds.

(d) Failure of Plan to Follow Procedures. If the Plan fails to follow the claims procedures required by this Section 7.1, a Claimant shall be deemed to have exhausted the administrative remedies available under the Plan and shall be entitled to pursue any available remedy under ERISA section 502(a) on the basis that the Plan has failed to provide a reasonable claims procedure that would yield a decision on the merits of the claim.

(e) Failure of Claimant to Follow Procedures. A Claimant's compliance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1 is a mandatory prerequisite to the Claimant's right to commence any legal action with respect to any claim for benefits under the Plan.

7.2 Arbitration of Claims. All claims or controversies arising out of or in connection with this Plan shall, subject to the initial review provided for in the foregoing provisions of this Article, be resolved through arbitration. Except as otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties, any arbitration shall be administered under and by the Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”), in accordance with the JAMS procedures then in effect. The arbitration shall be held in the JAMS office nearest to where the Claimant is or was last employed by the Plan Sponsor or at a mutually agreeable location.

ARTICLE 8

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

8.1 Amendment. The Plan Sponsor reserves the right to amend this Plan at any time to comply with Section 409A and other Applicable Guidance or for any other purpose, provided that such amendment will not cause the Plan to violate the provisions of Section 409A. Except to the extent necessary to bring this Plan into compliance with Section 409A, no amendment or modification shall be effective to decrease the value or vested percentage of a Participant's Accrued Benefit in existence at the time an amendment or modification is made to the Plan.

8.2 Plan Termination. The Plan Sponsor reserves the right to terminate this Plan in accordance with one of the following, subject to the restrictions imposed by Section

409A and authoritative guidance:

(a) Corporate Dissolution or Bankruptcy. This Plan may be terminated within twelve (12) months of a corporate dissolution taxed under Code § 331, or with the approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 503(b)(1)(A), and distributions may then be made to the Participant provided that the amounts payable under this Plan are included in the Participants' gross income in the latest of:

(i) The calendar year in which the Plan termination occurs;

(ii) The first calendar year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or

(iii) The first calendar year in which the payment is administratively practicable.

(b) Change in Control. This Plan may be terminated within the thirty (30) days preceding or the twelve (12) months following a Change in Control. This Plan will then be treated as terminated only if all arrangements that are treated as having been deferred under a single plan in accordance with Applicable Guidance are terminated so that all participants in all those terminated arrangements who experienced the Change in Control event are required to receive all amounts of compensation deferred under the terminated arrangements within twelve (12) months of the date of termination of the arrangements.

(i) All plans sponsored by the Plan Sponsor that would be aggregated with any terminated arrangements under Treasury Regulations §1.409A-l(c) are terminated;

(ii) No payments, other than payments that would be payable under the terms of this Plan if the termination had not occurred, are made within twelve (12) months of this Plan termination;

(iii) All payments are made within twenty-four (24) months of this Plan termination;

(iv) Neither the Plan Sponsor nor any of its affiliates adopts a new plan that would be aggregated with any terminated plan if the same Participant participated in both arrangements at any time within three (3) years following the date of termination of this Plan; and

(v) The termination does not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Plan Sponsor.

ARTICLE 9

THE TRUST

9.1 Establishment of Trust. The Plan Sponsor may establish a grantor trust (the “Trust”), of which the Plan Sponsor is the grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J, subtitle A of the Code, to pay benefits under this Plan. If the Plan Sponsor establishes a Trust, all benefits payable under this Plan to a Participant shall be paid directly by the Plan Sponsor from the Trust. To the extent such benefits are not paid from the Trust, the benefits shall be paid from the general assets of the Plan Sponsor. The Trust, (if any), shall be a grantor trust which conforms to the terms of the model trust as described in IRS Revenue Procedure 92-64, I.R.P. 1992-33, as same may be amended or modified from time to time. If the Plan Sponsor establishes a Trust, the assets of the Trust will be subject to the claims of the Plan Sponsor's creditors in the event of its insolvency. Except as may otherwise be provided under the Trust, the Plan Sponsor shall not be obligated to set aside, earmark, or escrow any funds or other assets to satisfy its obligations under this Plan, and the Participant and/ or his or her designated Beneficiaries shall not have any property interest in any specific assets of the Plan Sponsor other than the unsecured right to receive payments from the Plan Sponsor, as provided in this Plan.

9.2 Interrelationship of the Plan and the Trust. The provisions of this Plan shall govern the rights of a Participant to receive distributions pursuant to this Plan. The provisions of the Trust (if established) shall govern the rights of the Participant and the creditors of the Plan Sponsor to the assets transferred to the Trust. The Plan Sponsor and each Participant shall at all times remain liable to carry out its obligations under this Plan.

The Plan Sponsor's obligations under this Plan may be satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust.

9.3 Contribution to the Trust. Amounts may be contributed by the Plan Sponsor to the Trust at the sole discretion of the Plan Sponsor.

ARTICLE 10

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Validity. In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein; except to the extent that Section 409A requires that this Section 10.1 be disregarded because it purports to nullify Plan terms that are not in compliance with Section 409A.

10.2 Nonassignability. Neither any Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage, or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate, or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part hereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment (except to the extent the Plan Sponsor may be required to garnish amounts from payments due under this Plan pursuant to applicable law), or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony, or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant's or any other person's bankruptcy or insolvency, or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise. If any Participant, Beneficiary, or successor in interest is adjudicated bankrupt or purports to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber transfer, hypothecate, alienate, or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amount, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, the Plan Administrator, in its discretion, may cancel such distribution or payment (or any part thereof) to or for the benefit of such Participant, Beneficiary, or successor in interest in such manner as the Plan Administrator shall direct.

10.3 Not a Contract of Employment. The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Plan Sponsor and the Participant. Nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Plan Sponsor as an employee or otherwise or to interfere with the right of the Plan Sponsor to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

10.4 Unclaimed Benefits. In the case that the Plan Administrator is unable to locate the Participant or Beneficiary to whom a benefit is payable, such Plan benefit shall

be forfeited to the Plan Sponsor upon the Plan Administrator's determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payment may be made to a Participant, and that payment will be treated as made upon the date specified under the Plan, if the Participant provides notice to the Plan Sponsor within ninety (90) days of the latest date upon which the payment could have been timely made in accordance with the terms of the Plan and Section 409A, and if not paid, if the Participant takes further enforcement measures within one-hundred eighty (180) days after such latest date.

10.5 Governing Law. Subject to ERISA, the provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the internal laws of the State of Maryland without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

10.6 Notice. Any notice, consent or demand required or permitted to be given under the provisions of this Plan shall be in writing and shall be signed by the party giving or making the same.

The date of such mailing shall be deemed the date of notice consent or demand. Any person may change the address to which notice is to be sent by giving notice of the change of address in the manner aforesaid.

10.7 Coordination with Other Benefits. The benefits provided for a Participant and Participant's Beneficiary under this Plan are in addition to any other benefits available to such Participant under any other plan or program for employees of the Plan Sponsor. This Plan shall supplement and shall not supersede, modify, or amend any other such plan or program except as may otherwise be expressly provided herein.

10.8 Compliance. A Participant shall have no right to receive payment with respect to the Participant's Accrued Benefit until all legal and contractual obligations of the Plan Sponsor relating to establishment of the Plan and the making of such payments shall have been complied with in full.

10.9 Compliance with Section 409A and Authoritative Guidance. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, all provisions of this Plan, including but not limited to the definitions of terms, elections to defer, and distributions, shall be made in accordance with and shall comply with Section 409A and any authoritative guidance. The Plan Sponsor will amend the terms of this Plan retroactively, if necessary, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A and any authoritative guidance. No election made by a Participant hereunder, and no change made by a Participant to a previous election, shall be accepted by the Plan Sponsor if the Plan Sponsor determines that acceptance of such election or change could violate any of the requirements of Section 409A or the authoritative guidance. This Plan and any accompanying forms shall be interpreted in accordance with, and incorporate the terms

and conditions required by, Section 409A and the authoritative guidance, including, without limitation, any such Treasury Regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the date hereof.

10.10 Not Contrived Against the Drafter. This Plan has been negotiated and prepared by the parties and their respective legal counsel, and no provision of this Plan shall be construed more strictly against one party as the drafter.
