1.1.33. Recognized Employment — all service with the Employer by persons classified by the Employer as common law employees, excluding, however, service classified by the Employer as:

 

  (a) employment in a unit of employees whose terms and conditions of employment are subject to a collective bargaining agreement between the Employer and a union representing that unit of employees, unless (and to the extent) such collective bargaining agreement provides for the inclusion of those employees in the Plan,

 

-2-


  (b) employment of a nonresident alien who is not receiving any earned income from the Employer which constitutes income from sources within the United States,

 

  (c) employment in a division or facility of the Employer which is not in existence on January 1, 2000 (that is, was acquired, established, founded or produced by the liquidation or similar discontinuation of a separate subsidiary after January 1, 2000) unless and until the Committee shall declare such employment to be Recognized Employment,

 

  (d) services of a person who is not a common law employee of the Employer including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, services of a Leased Employee, leased owner, leased manager, shared employee, shared Leased Employee, temporary worker, independent contractor, contract worker, agency worker, freelance worker or other similar classification,

Employment of a United States citizen or a United States resident alien outside the United States shall be classified as Recognized Employment. The Employer’s classification of a person at the time of inclusion or exclusion in Recognized Employment shall be conclusive for the purpose of the foregoing rules. No reclassification of a person’s status with the Employer, for any reason, without regard to whether it is initiated by a court, governmental agency or otherwise and without regard to whether or not the Employer agrees to such reclassification, shall result in the person being included in Recognized Employment, either retroactively or prospectively. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this provision, however, the Committee may declare that a reclassified person will be included in Recognized Employment, either retroactively or prospectively. Any uncertainty concerning a person’s classification shall be resolved by excluding the person from Recognized Employment.

Such elective contributions, under the Plan and any other plan of the Employer and Affiliates for that Participant’s taxable year shall not exceed the dollar limit in effect for that taxable year under section 402(g) of the Code (as adjusted under the Code and by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases). The Committee may, from time to time under rules, change the minimum and maximum allowable elective contributions. The reductions in earnings for elective contributions elected by the Participant shall be made by the Employer from the Participant’s remuneration each payday on and after the Enrollment Date for so long as the Retirement Savings Election remains in effect. The Committee shall specify the method (including telephonic, electronic or similar methods) of providing or modifying a Retirement Savings Election and all procedures for providing and accepting Retirement Savings Elections and notices, including requirements for advance notice.

-4-


  (a) Each Participant may elect to designate all or a portion of the Participant’s catch-up elective contributions for the Participant’s taxable year as after-tax Roth contributions.

Any catch-up elective contributions designated as Roth contributions shall be includible in the Participant’s gross income at the time deferred and shall be allocated to the Participant’s Roth Account. Any catch-up elective contributions designated as pre-tax elective contributions shall not be includible in the Participant’s gross income at the time deferred and shall be allocated to the Participant’s Retirement Savings Account.

12. HARDSHIP DISTRIBUTIONS. Effective for distributions made on or after January 1, 2008, Section 7.2.2 of the Plan Statement shall be amended to read in full as follows:.

7.2.2. Hardship Distributions. A Participant may receive a hardship distribution from the Accounts listed in (e) below if the Committee determines that such hardship distribution is for one of the purposes described in (a) below and the conditions in (b) and (d) below have been fulfilled. To receive such a distribution, the Participant must apply to the Committee. In the application, the Participant shall specify the dollar amount to be distributed.

  (a) Purposes. Hardship distributions shall be allowed under Section 7.2.2 only if the Participant establishes that the hardship distribution is to be made for one of the following purposes:

 

  (i) expenses for (or necessary to obtain) medical care for the Participant, the Participant’s spouse or any dependents of the Participant (as defined in section 152 of the Code and without regard to sections 152(b)(1), 152(b)(2) and 152(d)(1)(B) of the Code) that would be deductible under section 213 of the Code (determined without regard to whether the expenses exceed seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of adjusted gross income),

 

  (ii) costs directly related to the purchase of a principal residence for the Participant (excluding mortgage payments),

 

  (iii) payment of tuition, room and board and related educational fees for the next twelve (12) months of post-secondary education for the Participant or the Participant’s spouse, children or dependents (as defined in section 152 of the Code and without regard to sections 152(b)(1), 152(b)(2) and 152(d)(1)(B) of the Code),

 

  (iv) payments necessary to prevent the eviction of the Participant from the Participant’s principal residence or foreclosure on the mortgage of that principal residence,

 

  (v) payments for burial or funeral expenses of the Participant’s deceased parent, spouse, children or dependents (as defined in section 152 of the Code and without regard to section 152(d)(1)(B) of the Code), or

-7-


Such purposes shall be considered to be an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant.

 

  (b) Limitations. In no event shall the cumulative amount of hardship distributions withdrawn exceed the amount of contributions to a Participant’s Retirement Savings Account or Roth Account made pursuant to Section 3.2 (i.e., hardship distributions shall not include any earnings on such contributions or any qualified nonelective contributions (as defined under section 401(m)(4)(C)) or earnings on such qualified nonelective contributions). The amount of the hardship distribution shall not exceed the amount of the Participant’s immediate and heavy financial need; provided, however, that the amount of the immediate and heavy financial need may include amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution. In addition, a hardship distribution from the Participant’s Retirement Savings Account or Roth Account shall not be allowed unless the Participant has obtained all distributions, including distribution of ESOP dividends under section 404(k) of the Code but not including other hardship distributions, and all nontaxable loans (at the time of the loan) currently available under all plans maintained by the Employer and Affiliates. Other funds are not currently available unless the funds are available prior to or coincidently with the date the hardship distribution is available.

  (d) Coordination with Other Plans. The Participant’s Retirement Savings Election and elective contributions and employee contributions under all other plans maintained by the Employer and Affiliates shall be canceled for six (6) months after receipt of a hardship distribution. Following the completion of that six (6) month period the Participant’s Retirement Savings Election shall be automatically reinstated, provided the Participant is in Recognized Employment on that date. For the purposes of this Section 7.2.2(d), all other plans maintained by the Employer and Affiliates shall mean all qualified and nonqualified plans of deferred compensation maintained by the Employer and Affiliates (including stock option, stock purchase or similar plans).

 

-8-

Retirement Savings Account

Roth Account.

 

  (f) Coordination with Section 4.1. If the hardship distribution is made from a Retirement Savings Account or a Roth Account which is invested in more than one (1) Subfund authorized and established under Section 4.1, the amount withdrawn shall be charged to each Subfund in the same proportions as the Retirement Savings Account or Roth Account is invested in each Subfund.

13. ADDITION OF IN-SERVICE WITHDRAWAL. Effective for distributions made on or after January 1, 2008, the Plan Statement shall be amended to add a new Section 7.2.3, which shall read in full as follows:

To receive such a distribution, the Participant must apply to the Committee. In the application, the Participant shall specify the dollar amount to be distributed. Such distribution shall be approved by the Committee and such distribution shall be made in a lump sum cash payment as soon as administratively practicable following the approval of the application by the Committee.

 

  (a) Limitations. The following rules and limitations shall apply to in-service withdrawals. No in-service withdrawal shall be made from any portion of a Participant’s Total Account that is invested in a self-managed brokerage Subfund authorized and established under Section 4.1. No in-service withdrawal shall be made from any portion of a Participant’s Total Account that consists of the unpaid balance of any outstanding loans of the Participant under Section 7.

 

  (b) Accounting for In-Service Distributions. In the application, the Participant shall specify the extent to which the in-service distribution is to be made from the Participant’s After-Tax Account. Except to the extent the Participant has specified that the in-service distribution is to be made from the Participant’s After-Tax Account, any such distribution shall first be taken from and charged to the Participant’s Accounts in the following sequence:

Rollover Account

Roth Rollover Account.

 

-9-


Any general in-service distribution shall be deemed to have been taken from a combination of (i) the Participant’s after-tax contributions to the After-Tax Account, to the extent of the aggregate amount thereof not previously withdrawn, and (ii) the earnings in the After-Tax Account and all contributions and all earnings in all other Accounts. The portion of each such in-service withdrawal that is deemed to be earnings will be in the same ratio as the earnings in the After-Tax Account and all contributions and all earnings in all other Accounts bear to the Total Account.

 

  (c) Investment in More Than One Subfund. If an in-service withdrawal is made from an Account which is invested in more than one (1) Subfund, the amount withdrawn shall be charged to each Subfund in the same proportions as the Account (minus any portion of the Account invested in a self-managed brokerage Subfund) is invested in each Subfund.

14. REMOVAL OF QDRO RULES. Effective for domestic relations orders first received on or after January 1, 2008, the second sentence of Section 7.5.2 shall read in full as follows:

7.5.4. Distribution in Cash. Except as provided in Appendix F, distribution of a Participant’s Vested Total Account shall be made in cash. If, however, the Vested Total Account:

 

  (a) consists in whole or in part of a Participant’s unpaid promissory note and the distributee elects distribution in kind pursuant to a direct rollover to another tax-qualified plan, or

 

  (b) is in whole or in part invested in investments for which the distributee elects distribution in kind pursuant to a direct rollover to another tax-qualified plan (to the extent that no administrative issues prevent such request from being accommodated), or

 

  (c) is in whole or in part invested in an individual Subfund under Section 4.1.2 and the distributee elects distribution in kind (to the extent the investment provides for in-kind distributions), the Trustee shall cause distribution of that portion of the Vested Total Account to be made in kind.

16. REVISED LOAN PROCEDURES. Effective for loans made on or after January 1, 2008, Section 7.6.1 of the Plan Statement shall be amended to read in full as follows:

7.6.1. Availability. Loans shall be made available to all Participants who are either actively employed by the Employer or an Affiliate or on an authorized leave of absence as determined by the Committee, subject to limitations and conditions established under this Section on a reasonably equivalent basis and shall not be made available to Highly Compensated Employees in an amount (expressed as a percentage of the Vested Total Account) greater than is made available to other employees.

17. REVISED LOAN PROCEDURES. Effective for loans made on or after January 1, 2008, Section 7.6.6(b) of the Plan Statement shall be amended to read in full as follows:

 

  (b) Interest Rate. The interest rate on any loan shall be equal to the prime rate (the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks) as reported by the Federal Reserve on the first business day of the calendar month in which the loan is granted plus one percent (1%).

18. REVISED LOAN PROCEDURES. Effective for loans made on or after January 1, 2008, Section 7.6.6(h) of the Plan Statement shall be amended to read in full as follows:

 

  (h) Event of Default. Subject to subsection (i) below, nonpayment within thirty (30) days after a payment due date and the existence of a principal balance outstanding as of the term of the loan sixty (60) days after the due date shall be an event of default, unless the loan’s promissory note is distributed in kind in connection with Section 7.5.4. If a payment is not made by payroll deduction, then payment shall be considered made for this purpose only when the personal check, cashier’s check, certified check or money order is received in fact by the Trustee or the Committee as agent for the Trustee. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Participant’s Vested Accounts in the Plan given as security shall be offset by the amount of the then outstanding balance of the loan in default at the end of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which loan payment was discontinued (including, to the extent required under the Code, interest on the amount in default from the time of the default until the time of the offset). In the case of a Participant who has not had an Event of Maturity, however, this offset shall be deferred until an Event of Maturity as to such Participant, but, in the interim, it shall not be possible to cure the default. Such offset shall be automatic. No notice shall be required prior to offset.

If the Participant is on an authorized leave of absence as determined by the Committee, and the Participant’s wages during the leave are less than the amount of the loan payment, then loan payments shall be suspended for a period of up to one (1) year; provided, however, that the Participant’s death even while payments are suspended shall nevertheless terminate the loan as provided in subsection (g). As soon as administratively practicable following the Participant’s return to active employment with the Employer or an Affiliate, the Participant’s loan shall be reamortized so that the unpaid balance of the Participant’s loan will continue to be paid in equal periodic installments each payroll period in amounts sufficient to retire the entire loan indebtedness (principal and interest) by the original maturity date of the loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, special rules apply to Participants on leaves of absence covered by the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994.

20. REMOVAL OF QDRO RULES. Effective for domestic relations orders first received on or after January 1, 2008, Appendix C shall be deleted in its entirely without replacement.

21. ADDITION OF REQUIRED 75% QJ&SA. Effective for distributions made on or after January 1, 2008, Section 1.2 of Appendix E of the Plan Statement shall be amended to read in full as follows:

1.2. QJ&SA Contract.

The seventy-five percent (75%) QJ&SA contract shall be equal to the value of the fifty percent (50%) QJ&SA contract. The contract shall be a QJ&SA contract only if it is issued on a premium basis which does not discriminate on the basis of the sex of the Participant or the surviving spouse.

22. SAVINGS CLAUSE. Save and except as herein expressly amended, the Plan Statement shall continue in full force and effect.
