TO THE
UPS RETIREMENT PLAN
WHEREAS, United Parcel Service of America, Inc. (the "Company") maintains the UPS Retirement Plan (the "Plan"), amended and restated effective January 1, 2014; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Plan, the Company's board of directors (the "Board") may amend the Plan at any time; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to amend the Plan to freeze eligibility effective June 30, 2016, such that anyone hired, rehired, or transferred to Employee status on or after July 1, 2016 (other than those participants eligible to participate in the Plan in accordance with Appendix M) shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan; and
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the Plan is amended as follows, effective June 30, 2016:

The introductory section of the Plan is amended to add the following:
FURTHERMORE, the Plan was amended effective June 30, 2016 to provide for a freeze of eligibility effective as of that date for any individual hired, rehired, or transferred to Employee status on or after July 1, 2016. All employees who were employed as an Employee on June 30, 2016 shall remain Participants and shall continue to earn Benefit Service and accrue benefits as set forth under this Plan as long as such individual remains employed as an Employee, but any individual hired, rehired, or transferred to Employee status on or after July 1, 2016 shall generally be ineligible to participate in the Plan, and shall generally be ineligible to accrue benefits under the Plan, except as specifically set forth herein. This shall not affect any individual participating or who becomes eligible to participate in the Plan by Appendix M but only to the extent of the benefits described in Appendix M. For clarification, any individual hired, rehired, or transferred to Employee status on or after July 1, 2016 who had a previously accrued benefit under the Plan, shall continue to be considered a "Participant" under the Plan, but only to the extent of such previously accrued benefit. No additional Benefit Service for such an individual shall apply or be earned, nor shall any benefits generally increase following the date such individual is hired, rehired, or transferred to Employee status after June 30, 2016, except as may be specifically set forth under this Plan.
2.
Section 1.l (h) ("Benefit Service") is amended by revising paragraph (v) to read as follows:

An employee who was employed as an Employee on December 31, 2007 will continue to earn Benefit Service described in this Section 1.1(h) after 2007 for all purposes as long as he remains employed as an Employee, but an employee who ceases to be employed as an Employee whether as a result of termination of employment or a transfer to a non-Employee position will cease to earn Benefit Service credit after such termination or transfer except as provided in this Section 1.1(h)(v). An Employee who is transferred to a non-Employee position (whether on, before or after January 1, 2008) and then is transferred back to an Employee position or rehired as an Employee on or after January 1, 2008, but before July 1, 2016 and who has not commenced benefits under a Final Average Compensation Formula or the Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula shall continue to earn Benefit Service as described in Section 1.1(h) following such transfer or rehire solely for purposes of determining early retirement subsidies, but not benefit accrual, under a Final Average Compensation Formula or the Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula for the benefit accrued before he or she terminated service or transferred to the non-Employee position until he or she terminates employment with the Employer Company and all Related Employers. The provisions of this Section 1.l (h)(v) will not affect any Crewmember covered by Appendix M but only to the extent of the benefits described in Appendix M.

Any individual who is newly hired on or after July 1, 2016 shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan and shall not be entitled to earn any Benefit Service under this Section 1.l(h).

Participant in the Normal Form commencing as of his or her Normal Retirement Date or, if later, the date he or she actually retires determined as follows:
(i) | General. For a Participant, other than a Grandfathered Participant or a Pre-2001 Participant, the sum of A, B, C and D, where: |
(A) = the RPA Formula benefit, if any,
(B) = the UPS Freight Formula benefit, if any,

(D) = the Portable Account Benefit, if any.
For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2007, each Participant who has at least one Hour of Service on or after January 1, 2008 will accrue either a Portable Account Benefit or a Final Average Compensation Formula benefit, but not both.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant who is eligible for a Portable Account Benefit may continue to increase his or her Final Average Compensation and his or her years of Benefit Service earned after December 31, 2007, if any, will be taken into account solely for purposes of determining early retirement subsidies, but not benefit accrual, under the Final Average Compensation Formula and Pre-2006 Motor Cargo Formula.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each individual who is hired, reemployed, or transferred to Employee status on or after July 1, 2016, shall not be eligible to accrue additional benefits either under a Portable Account Benefit or a Final Average Compensation Formula benefit, except as specifically provided in Section 5.3(g).

Section 5.3(g)(iv) of the Plan is hereby revised to read as follows:
(iv) | Interest Credits.
