INTRODUCTION

The Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Retirement Income Plan For Salaried Employees (the “Plan”) as stated herein is an amendment and restatement of the most recently amended and restated version of the Plan that was generally effective as of January 1, 1989 (the “Prior Plan”). This amendment and restatement of the Plan is generally effective as of January 1, 1997, or such other dates as may be specifically provided herein or as otherwise required by law for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 401 (a) of the Code.

The provisions of this plan supersede the Prior Plan provisions for all persons in the employment of the Employer or any Affiliated Employer at any time on or after the Effective Date of this restatement and of all persons claiming through, under or against such persons. The provisions of the Plan as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of this restatement shall govern Participants who ceased to be employed, by retirement or otherwise, prior to the Effective Date of this restatement and of all persons claiming through, under or against such Participants. The preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that applying the provisions of the Plan as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of this restatement to such Participants would violate the “Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974” (ERISA), or any other applicable law, would result in disqualification of this Plan, or would require inconsistent administrative practices, in which case the provisions of this Plan shall apply.

The provisions of the Plan are subject to a determination by the Internal Revenue Service that the Plan is “qualified” under Section 401(a) of the Code. It is further intended that the Plan also conform to the requirements of Title I of ERISA, as amended from time to time.

See Article 16 for provisions that preclude from participation employees who first perform an Hour of Service on or after January 1, 2007, and employees who performed an Hour of Service before January 1, 2007, incur a Separation from Service, and next perform an Hour of Service on or after January 1, 2007.

1.27	“Employer”

1.29

“ERISA”

shall mean the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (Public Law #93-406), as amended from time to time.

1.30	“Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit”

means, as to a Participant retiring on or after Normal Retirement Date, the monthly Social Security retirement benefit to which the Participant would be entitled under Title II of the Social Security Act on the Participant’s Termination Date, without regard as to whether the Participant is actually entitled to a Social Security retirement benefit. As to a Participant who has a Termination Date or ceases to be an Eligible Employee prior to Normal Retirement Date, “Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit” means the monthly Social Security retirement benefit to which the Participant would be entitled at his Normal Retirement Date under Title II of the Social Security Act as in effect on the last day of employment as an Eligible Employee, assuming that the Participant’s Credited Service continued until the Participant attained age sixty-five (65), that until the date on which the Participant would have attained age sixty-five (65) the Participant received the same rate of compensation in effect when he last performed services as an Eligible Employee, that the Participant is actually entitled to a Social Security retirement benefit and elects to begin benefit payments upon reaching age sixty-five (65).

The Social Security benefit is computed on the basis of an estimated earnings history throughout the period during which the Participant could have been covered under the Social Security Act. Estimated earnings under this section will be computed by the Employer by applying a 6% discount to the employee’s annual rate of compensation as in effect immediately after the period for which the estimate is being made to the later of 1951 or the calendar year the Participant reached age 22.

In lieu of using an estimated compensation for a particular period, the Participant may elect to have his Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit based on the Participant’s actual wage history as furnished by the Social Security Administration or such other source as the Employer deems to be reliable. The Participant must, however, supply the Employer with satisfactory documentation of his actual wage history within one year of time following the later of his termination of employment or the date upon which the Employer notifies him of the benefit, if any, that he is entitled to receive under the Plan. If the Participant elects to furnish his actual wage history after the date that his Accrued Benefit has been determined by the Employer, the recalculated Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit shall not cause a reduction to his Accrued Benefit.

1.31	“Final Average Earnings”

shall mean the highest amount obtainable by averaging a Participant’s Monthly Earnings for any 60 consecutive months of Active Employment with a Participating Employer (or the total number of such months, if the Participant has completed fewer than 60 months of Active Employment with a Participating Employer) within the last 120 consecutive months prior to his last date of Active Employment with a Participating Employer. Prior to January 1, 1991, the 60-month average was based on consecutive months of Credited Service instead of consecutive months of Active Employment with a Participating Employer.

If a Participant’s last 120 consecutive months of employment include a period of continuous layoff which does not cause a Loss of Seniority, then his Final Average Earnings shall be equal to the greater of (i) the amount determined under the preceding paragraph of this Section 1.31, and (ii) the amount determined by assuming that he received Monthly Earnings during the period of continuous layoff at the same rate as in effect at the beginning of the period of layoff.

In calculating Final Average Earnings between January 1, 1989 and December 31, 1993, the total amount of Monthly Earnings taken into account in any consecutive 12-month period shall not exceed $200,000 times the Adjustment Factor applicable for that calendar year.

In calculating Final Average Earnings between January 1, 1994 and December 31, 2001, the total amount of Monthly Earnings taken into account in any consecutive 12-month period shall not exceed $150,000 times the Adjustment Factor applicable for such year only after the cumulative cost-of-living adjustments are equal to or exceed the next $10,000 increment thereafter. In applying such limit to any consecutive 12-month period, the applicable limit shall be based on the annual compensation limit in effect for the respective calendar year in which each 12-month period begins with the unadjusted $150,000 limit applied for all periods beginning prior to January 1,1994.

In calculating Final Average Earnings on or after January 1, 2002, the total amount of Monthly Earnings taken into account in any consecutive 12-month period shall not exceed $200,000. The $200,000 limit on annual compensation shall be adjusted for cost-of-living increases in accordance with Section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Code and the applicable limit shall be based on the annual compensation limit in effect for the calendar year in which each 12-month period begins. In determining benefit accruals in Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, the annual compensation limit for consecutive 12-month periods beginning before January 1, 2002 shall be $200,000.

In calculating Final Average Earnings for a Participant who is being credited with Credited Service under Section 5.08 of this Plan (relating to a Participant receiving benefits under a long-term disability plan), it shall be assumed that such Participant continued to receive earnings at the rate equal to his Monthly Earnings rate on the last day of Active Employment before his long-term disability benefits began.

In calculating Final Average Earnings for a Participant who is eligible for Credited Service while a member under the Raytheon Company Pension Plan for Salaried Employees, as provided under Section 2.05, it shall be assumed that the Participant’s period of Active Employment and Monthly Earnings under this Plan shall include his period of employment while a member under the Raytheon Company Pension Plan for Salaried Employees.

1.32

“Fund”

shall mean any fund provided for in a trust arrangement or an insurance contract or a combination of both, which is held by a Funding Agent, to which contributions under the Plan on and after the Effective Date will be made, and out of which benefits are paid to the Participants or otherwise provided for.

1.33	“Funding Agent”

shall mean a Trustee or insurance company or any duly appointed successor or successors selected to hold a Fund.

1.34	“Highly Compensated Employee” and “Highly Compensated Former Employee”

shall mean an Employee who is determined to be a Highly Compensated Employee or Highly Compensated Former Employee under the provisions of Article 6 of this plan.

1.35	“Hour of Service”

shall mean each hour for which an Employee is paid, or entitled to payment, by an Employer, an Affiliated Employer or a Predecessor Employer, for the performance of duties. Hours of Service shall be computed and credited in accordance with the Department of Labor regulations under Section 2530.200b.

1.36	“Joint Annuitant”

shall mean the Beneficiary who will receive retirement benefits after the death of the Participant based on the provisions of a joint and survivor annuity, as described in Article 9.

1.37	“Joint and Two-Thirds to Survivor Annuity”

shall mean a retirement benefit under which equal monthly installments are payable during the joint lifetimes of the retired Participant and the Joint Annuitant, and under which, upon the death of either the retired Participant or the Joint Annuitant, an amount equal to two-thirds of the amount payable during their joint lifetime continues to be paid for the lifetime of the survivor.

1.38	“Leased Employee”

means any person (other than an employee of the recipient) who pursuant to an agreement between the recipient and any other person (“leasing organization”) has performed services for the recipient (or for the recipient and related persons determined in accordance with Section 414(n)(6) of the Code) on a substantially full-time basis for a period of at least one year and such services are performed under primary direction or control by the recipient. Except as provided in the next sentence, solely for purposes of the requirements listed in Section 414(n)(3) of the Code, a Leased Employee shall be treated as an employee of the recipient, and contributions or benefits provided by the leasing organization which are attributable to services performed for the recipient shall be treated as provided by the recipient. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, a Leased Employee shall not be considered an employee of the recipient for purposes of the requirements listed in Section 414(n)(3) of the Code if both: (i) such employee is covered by a money purchase pension plan providing: (1) a nonintegrated employer contribution rate of at least 10 percent of compensation, as defined in Section 415(c)(3) of the Code, but including amounts contributed pursuant to a salary reduction agreement which are excludable from the employee’s gross income under Section 125, Section 402(e)(3), Section 401(h)(1)(B), Section 403(b) or, for years beginning after 2000, Section 132(f)(4) of the Code, (2) immediate participation, and (3) full and immediate vesting; and (ii) Leased Employees do not constitute more than 20 percent of the recipient’s nonhighly compensated workforce.

1.39	“Loss of Seniority”

shall mean the occurrence of an event that causes an Employee’s name to be removed from the seniority list maintained under a collective bargaining agreement between an Employer and a collective bargaining agent.

as to an Employee who is a Participant on or after January 1, 1991, straight-time pay while an hourly employee, and

(b)

Other elements of compensation, such as pay for overtime hours, income imputed for insurance coverages, the value of stock options and stock appreciation rights or any income from the sale or exercise of stock options, termination payments for unused sick leave or unused accrued vacation pay and allowances or reimbursements for expenses, shall be excluded from Monthly Earnings.

(c)

Except as provided below, any payments of compensation shall be included in Monthly Earnings for the month in which it is actually paid. The following rules shall be used to determine the month for which certain forms of compensation are included in Monthly Earnings:

(1)

he is an Eligible Employee,

(c)

if he is first employed after July 31, 1993, he has attained age 21.

A Participant who incurs a Break in Employment and is later re-employed as an Eligible Employee will be treated as a new Employee and will recommence Participation when he again satisfies the conditions of Section 3.01.

3.03	Termination of Participation

A Participant who incurs a Break in Employment at a time when he is not entitled to a retirement benefit or to a Deferred Vested Benefit shall cease Participation at his Severance from Service Date. A Participant who incurs a Break in Employment and who is entitled to a retirement benefit or a Deferred Vested Benefit shall cease Participation upon receipt of payments equal to his total benefit provided hereunder, as a lump sum benefit under the terms of Section 9.02 or otherwise.

3.04	Transfer to Another Plan

If at the time a Participant or Beneficiary becomes entitled to a benefit hereunder, the Participant or Beneficiary is also entitled to a benefit under another defined benefit plan of an Affiliated Employer that provides for a transfer of the Actuarial Equivalent Value of benefits earned under this Plan to the last such plan under which the Participant has earned a benefit; then the Actuarial Equivalent Value of the benefits earned under this Plan shall be transferred to that plan, and the benefits earned under this Plan will be paid according to the terms of that plan.

3.05	Transfer from Another Plan: Prohibition of Double Counting

In the event a Participant has previously participated in another defined benefit plan of an Affiliated Employer and becomes entitled to a benefit hereunder, which is calculated using

Credited Service which includes service that is also counted for benefits under such other defined benefit plan, then, unless such other plan provides an offset for benefits provided hereunder, his benefit provided hereunder shall be offset by the benefits provided by such other plan (or, if not payable in the same form, the Actuarial Equivalent of such benefits) that are attributable to such service. If at the time a Participant or a Beneficiary becomes entitled to a benefit hereunder the Participant or Beneficiary is also entitled to a benefit under another defined benefit plan of an Affiliated Employer that provides for a transfer of the actuarial equivalent value of benefits earned under said plan to this Plan, then said benefits shall become an obligation of this Plan and payable in an Actuarial Equivalent amount in the same form of payment as elected for benefits earned under this Plan.

3.06	Coordination with Raytheon Company Pension Plan for Salaried Employees

Raytheon Aircraft Company will cease to be a member of the same controlled group of corporations as Raytheon Company upon the closing of the divestiture of Raytheon Aircraft Company on March 26, 2007 (the “Closing Date”). As of such date, assets will be transferred from Exhibit A of the Raytheon Company Pension Plan for Salaried Employees (the “Raytheon Salaried Plan”) to this Plan, and assets will be transferred from this Plan to the Raytheon Salaried Plan, to provide for payment from only one plan of the entire benefit to which a person who had service under both plans is entitled. The asset transfer will be made to the plan in which such a person was an active participant as of the Closing Date or, if earlier, the date of termination of employment. The asset transfer will be based on the valuation of liabilities for accrued benefits under the terms of the respective plans, taking into account only service and compensation through the Closing Date. Benefits that accrue under this Plan for periods after the Closing Date will be determined without regard to the provisions of this Plan that otherwise coordinate benefits with the Raytheon Salaried Plan, including, without limitation, the third paragraph of Section 2.05 and the provisions of Article 3 other than this Section 3.06.

4.06	Recommencement of Benefits

Benefits which are suspended in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03 of this Article shall be paid in any month in which the Participant is not considered to be in Section 203(a)(3)(B) Service. If an Employee whose benefits are suspended continues or recommences Participation in this Plan and thereafter again becomes entitled to benefits hereunder by virtue of a new Early, Normal or Postponed Retirement, previously suspended benefits shall not be recommenced, and the Participant shall be entitled only to his Early, Normal or Postponed Retirement Benefit, as of the Participant’s new Early, Normal or Postponed Retirement Date, adjusted as provided in Section 5.06.

4.07	Required Commencement at Age 70 ¹/2

The payment of benefits to a Participant who has attained age 70¹ /2 and is subject to the mandatory distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code shall commence at the time payments must commence in order to comply with such requirements. Such payments shall be made notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Plan or election made by such Participant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, a Participant who attains age 70¹/2 after December 31, 1987 shall commence payment of his benefit no later than April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such Participant attains age 70¹/2. A Participant who is required to begin receiving benefits under this Section 4.07 shall commence receiving benefits as though he had retired on December 31 of the calendar year in which he attains age 70¹/2, with April 1 of the following calendar year as his Benefit Commencement Date. Each December 31 thereafter, and upon his later actual Postponed Retirement Date, his benefit payment shall be recalculated using his actual Credited Service and the Dollar Credit applicable to such date. But the recalculated benefit payments shall be reduced by the Actuarial Equivalent of any payments previously made to him. Any such reduction shall not cause benefit payments to be decreased to an amount less than the amount the Participant was receiving immediately prior to the date of recalculation, or, in the event of a recalculation because of his attaining his actual Postponed Retirement Date, immediately prior to his actual Postponed Retirement Date.

4.08	Required Commencement - Conditions

A Participant’s Accrued Benefit shall be a monthly amount equal to the sum of the amount determined under Supplement A (if applicable) and the largest of the amounts determined under subparagraphs (a), (b), (c), and (d) below as of his Termination Date, largest of the amounts determined under subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c) below as of his Termination Date.

(a)

An amount equal to the Participant’s Final Average Earnings less his Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit multiplied by 1.8% for his years of Credited Service, not exceeding 20, and multiplied by 1.2% for his years of Credited Service in excess of 20 but not in excess of 49 years. In no event shall the aggregate adjustment for Social Security under this Section 5.01(a) exceed 60% of a Participant’s Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit.

(b)

An amount equal to the Participant’s years of Credited Service under this Plan multiplied by the “dollar credit” specified in Section 5.01 of the Raytheon Aircraft Company Retirement Income Plan for Hourly Paid Employees for an Employee whose Termination occurs on the same date as the Participant.

(c)

Unless otherwise provided under the Plan, each section 401(a)(17) employee’s Accrued Benefit under this Plan will be the greater of the Accrued Benefit determined for the Participant under subparagraph (1) or (2) below:

(1)

The Participant’s Accrued Benefit determined with respect to the benefit formula applicable for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, as applied to the Participant’s total years of Credited Service, or

(2)

The sum of:

(i)

The Participant’s Accrued Benefit as of December 31, 1993, frozen in accordance with IRS regulations Section 1.401(a)(4)-13, and

(ii)

The Participant’s Accrued Benefit determined under the benefit formula applicable for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, as applied to the Participant’s years of Credited Service for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994; provided, however, that for purposes of determining whether the years of Credited Service after January 1, 1994 are years not in excess of 20 or years in excess of 20, years of service prior to January 1, 1994 shall be recognized.

If the Participant has more than 49 years of Credited Service, the Accrued Benefit under subsection (2) shall not exceed the sum of the benefit credits attributable to the 49 years that produce the largest benefit.

A “section 401(a)(17) employee” means a Participant whose current Accrued Benefit as of a date on or after January 1, 1994, is based on compensation for a year beginning prior to January 1, 1994, that exceeded $150,000.

(d)

For a Participant who became a member of this Plan before January 1, 1988, the lesser of (i) 1.2% of his Final Average Earnings multiplied by his Credited Service, and (ii) 60% of his Final Average Earnings less his Social Security Adjustment.

5.03	Postponed Retirement Benefit

A Participant whose Termination Date is after his Normal Retirement Date, and whose pension payments have not commenced under Section 4.07 before his Termination Date, shall be entitled to a Postponed Retirement Benefit of a monthly annuity for life, in an amount equal to his Accrued Benefit (as defined in Section 5.01) at his Postponed Retirement Date.

A Participant whose Termination Date is after his Normal Retirement Date and whose pension payments have commenced under Section 4.07 shall be entitled to a Postponed Retirement Benefit as determined under Section 4.07.

A Participant who has a Termination prior to his Normal Retirement Date but on or after attaining age 55, and who has completed at such time five years of Credited Service, including a comparable period of service under another plan maintained by an Affiliated Employer, shall be entitled to an Early Retirement Benefit of a monthly annuity for life, commencing at the date which would have been the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date had he not retired early, in an amount equal to his Accrued Benefit at his Early Retirement Date. At the election of the Participant, the Participant may receive his Early Retirement Benefit as an annuity commencing at his Early Retirement Date or at the first of any month thereafter and before his Normal Retirement Date, in a reduced amount calculated by multiplying the Early Retirement Benefit as calculated under the first sentence of this Section 5.04 by the appropriate factor contained in

Appendix A to reflect the earlier commencement of benefits. A Grandfathered Participant who incurred a Termination as a result of Raytheon Aerospace Company ceasing to be a Participating Employer under the Plan, as provided in Section 1.47, shall nevertheless not incur a Termination for purposes of this Section 5.04 until such Grandfathered Participant terminates employment with Raytheon Aerospace Company (or any successor employer). For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Grandfathered Participant is a Participant who as of the closing date referred to in Section 1.47(a) was an employee of Raytheon Aerospace Company, (b) has attained age 40, but not age 55, and (c) has completed five years of Credited Service.

(b)

Deferred Vested Benefit - Early Commencement

A Participant entitled to a Deferred Vested Benefit who has satisfied the service requirement for entitlement to an Early Retirement Benefit (specified in Section 5.04), and who subsequently satisfies the age requirement stated in that section for entitlement to an Early Retirement Benefit shall be entitled to elect to begin receiving his Deferred Vested Benefit on the first of any month thereafter and no later than his Normal Retirement Date, in an amount calculated in accordance with the factors included in Appendix A.

5.06	Adjustment for Suspension of Benefits

The otherwise payable Early, Normal or Postponed Retirement Benefit of any Participant who had previously become entitled to an Early, Normal or Postponed Retirement Benefit, but whose benefit payments were suspended pursuant to the provisions of Article 4, shall be reduced by the Actuarial Equivalent of any payments previously made to him. In no event, however, shall the redetermined benefit be less than the amount of monthly benefit the Participant had received prior to suspension of benefits.

5.07	Disability Retirement Benefit

A Participant who has incurred a Total and Permanent Disability during Active Employment while an Employee of a Participating Employer shall be entitled to a Disability Retirement Benefit of a monthly annuity for life, commencing on the first day of the month following his eligibility date in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 1.2% of his Final Average

Earnings multiplied by his Credited Service and (ii) 60% of his Final Average Earnings less his Social Security Adjustment subject to the following conditions and restrictions:

(a)

Eligibility Date - Work-Related Disability

A Participant who incurs a Total and Permanent Disability in the course of his employment during the hours for which he is compensated shall be eligible for a Disability Retirement Benefit on the later of (i) the first date on which he meets the requirements for a work-related Total and Permanent Disability and (ii) the date he files a proper application with the Employer for a Disability Retirement Benefit.

(b)

Eligibility Date - Non-Work-Related Disability

A Participant who has completed ten years of Vesting Service and incurs a Total and Permanent Disability that is established as not having occurred in the course of his employment shall be eligible for a Disability Retirement Benefit on the later of (i) the first date on which he meets the requirements for a non-work-related Total and Permanent Disability and (ii) the date he files a proper application with the Employer for a Disability Retirement Benefit.

(c)

Continued Proof of Disability

The Committee may require each Participant in the receipt of a Disability Retirement Benefit to submit, not more than semiannually, evidence that the Participant’s Total and Permanent Disability continues in effect (evidence that the Participant remains eligible for benefits under the Social Security Act). If, as of any time before the Participant attains his Normal Retirement Age, he refuses to submit such evidence or if it is determined that the Participant no longer meets the conditions for a Total and Permanent Disability, the Disability Retirement Benefit shall cease and the Participant shall thereafter only be entitled to the benefits which the Participant may qualify for under another section of the Plan. However, the period of time prior to such a refusal or determination shall be disregarded for purposes of determining whether a Break in Employment has occurred.

(d)

Termination of Disability Retirement Benefit

Payment of a Disability Retirement Benefit to a Participant shall terminate with the payment made on the first day of the month preceding the date on which any of the following events occur:

(1)

Death of the Participant. In such event, an Automatic Preretirement Spousal Death Benefit shall be payable to the Participant’s surviving spouse, if any.

(2)

Events described in Section 5.07(c) above.

(3)

Attainment of Normal Retirement Age by the Participant. In such event, the Participant shall become entitled to receive a Normal Retirement Benefit based

upon the Vesting Service and Credited Service which was credited to the Participant as of the date of the Participant’s Total and Permanent Disability. The Normal Retirement Benefit shall be payable as provided in Article IX.

5.08	Adjustment for Participants Receiving LTD Benefits

If a Participant who is making voluntary employee contributions under a long-term disability plan being maintained by the Employer incurs an interruption of Active Employment while a Salaried Plan Employee which results in his eligibility to receive long-term disability benefits, then he shall be entitled to whichever of the following benefits are applicable to him in lieu of the Disability Retirement Benefit described in Section 5.07.

(a)

If such Participant (i) does not recover prior to attaining his Normal Retirement Date, (ii) is no longer receiving long-term disability benefits, and (iii) has not claimed or accepted a Disability or Early Retirement Benefit or Deferred Vested Benefit, then he shall be entitled to a Normal or Postponed Retirement Benefit, whichever is applicable, based on the formula used to determine his Accrued Benefit as of the date that he became eligible to receive long-term disability benefits, with the following modifications:

(1)

His Credited Service shall be calculated as though he had remained in Active Employment until the date that long-term disability benefits end.

(2)

His Final Average Earnings shall be determined as though he had continued to receive compensation during his period of disability at the rate of his Monthly Earnings in effect on the last day of Active Employment before his long-term disability benefits began.

(3)

His Estimated Primary Social Security Benefit shall be determined under Title II of the Social Security Act as in effect on the date he became eligible to receive long-term disability benefits, assuming the Participant received compensation at the rate specified in subparagraph (2) until the date that his Normal Retirement Benefit or Postponed Retirement Benefit begins.

(b)

If such Participant (i) recovers prior to attaining his Normal Retirement Date so he is no longer eligible to receive long-term disability benefits, (ii) makes a bona fide application immediately after such recovery for reemployment with the Employer in a position comparable to that held by him when his long-term disability occurred (and accepts such employment in good faith), and (iii) has not claimed or accepted any Disability Retirement or Early Retirement Benefit or Deferred Vested Benefit, then he shall have his Credited Service and Final Average Earnings calculated as though he had remained in Active Employment for the entire period of his long-term disability.

(c)

If such Participant dies while still receiving long-term disability benefits and he has not claimed or accepted any retirement benefits under this Plan (including a Disability Retirement Benefit), then any Automatic Preretirement Spousal Death Benefit payable to his surviving spouse shall be calculated (under Section 8.01) as though he had remained in Active Employment as a Salaried Plan Employee until his death, and his Final Average Earnings will be determined as though he had continued to receive compensation at the rate of his Monthly Earnings in effect on the last day of Active Employment before long-term disability benefits began.

(d)

In all other cases such Participant shall be deemed for all purposes of the Plan to have incurred a Break in Employment at the end of his period of Active Employment.

5.09	Cessation and Restoration of Accrued Benefits for Highly Compensated Employees

The Plan was amended on April 7, 1989, to provide that no Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee within the meaning of Section 414(q)(1)(A) or (B) of the Code shall accrue any additional benefit under the Plan on or after December 31, 1988 and on January 1, 1990, to provide that no other Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code shall accrue any additional benefit under the Plan on or after January 1, 1990, to the extent that such additional benefit accruals exceed the benefit that would otherwise accrue in accordance with the terms of the Plan as subsequently amended to comply with the qualification requirements described in IRS regulations Section 1.401(b)-1 (b)(2)(ii) (Tax Reform Act of 1986). During the period January 1, 1989, through August 31, 1991, any differential between the pension benefit otherwise payable under the Plan and the benefit actually paid as a result of the foregoing suspension of benefit accrual was paid to retired Participants through the Beech Aircraft Corporation Excess Benefit Plan.

Effective September 1, 1991, Highly Compensated Employees who did not retire from the Plan during the period January 1, 1989, through August 31, 1991, had their Accrued Benefit restored to the level which it would have attained had the suspension of benefit accruals not been placed in effect. With respect to Participants who retired on or after February 1, 1989, and prior to September 1, 1991, the pension benefits payable as of September 1, 1991, and for subsequent months were restored to the amount which would have been payable if the suspension of benefit accruals had not been placed in effect. In no event shall a Participant receive payment under the Plan for a benefit which has already been paid pursuant to the Beech Aircraft Corporation Excess Benefit Plan.

5.10	Commencement of Benefit Payments

The payment of benefits under the Plan shall commence no later than the sixtieth (60^th) day after the close of the Plan Year in which the Participant either attains Normal Retirement Age or, if later, terminates service with the Employer.

ARTICLE 6

Required Benefit Limitations

6.01	Code Section 415 Limits

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, in no event may that portion of Participant’s benefit paid in any one Limitation Year under this Plan and any other defined benefit plan maintained by the Affiliated Employers and not attributable under Regulations of the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate to benefits attributable to Participant contributions or benefits directly transferred to this Plan from another qualified plan, exceed the maximum permissible amount determined as an amount Actuarially Equivalent to a benefit payable annually in the form of a straight life annuity (with no ancillary benefits) equal to the lesser of (1) or (2) below, where;

(1) is (i) for the first Limitation Year ending on or after January 1,1987, $90,000, and for each January thereafter through 2001 shall automatically be adjusted as provided under Section 415(d) of the Code in such manner as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe; and (ii) for the first Limitation Year ending on or after January 1, 2002, $160,000, and for each January thereafter shall automatically be adjusted as provided under Section 415(d) of the Code in such manner as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe. In each case, the adjusted limitation will apply to the Limitation Year ending within the calendar year of he date of adjustment. The dollar limitation may be adjusted under subsections (b) and (c) if the retirement benefit commences before the Participant’s Social Security retirement date; and

(2) is 100% of the Participant’s average Compensation for the three (3) consecutive calendar years while participating in the Plan in which the Participant’s Compensation was highest.

(b) For Limitation Years ending before January 1, 2002, if the retirement benefit commences before the Participant’s Social Security retirement age but on or after the date the Participant reaches age sixty-two (62), the maximum annual benefit described in subsection (a)(1) shall be determined as follows:

(1) If a Participant was born before 1938, the dollar limitation for benefits commencing on or after age 62 is determined by reducing the defined benefit dollar limitation by ⁵/9ths of one percent for each month by which benefits commence before the month of the Participant’s Social Security retirement age; and

(2) If a Participant was born after 1937, the dollar limitation for benefits commencing on or after age 62 is determined by reducing the defined benefit dollar limitation by ⁵/9ths of one percent for each of the first 36 months and ⁵/12ths of one percent for each of the additional months (up to 24 months) by which benefits commence before the month of the Participant’s Social Security retirement age.

For Limitation Years ending after December 31, 2001, if the retirement benefit commences on or after the date the Participant reaches age sixty-two (62), the maximum annual benefit described in subsection (a)(1) shall not be reduced.

(c) For all Limitation Years, if the retirement benefit under the Plan commences before age sixty-two (62), the maximum annual benefit described in subsection (a)(1) determined at age sixty-two (62) as provided herein shall, in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury, be reduced actuarially to the date the benefit commences, using an interest rate of 7%. If the retirement benefit under the Plan commences (i) for Limitation Years ending before January 1, 2002 after the Participant’s Social Security retirement age, and (ii) for Limitation Years ending after December 31, 2001 after the Participant’s attains age 65, the benefit may not exceed the dollar limitation described in subsection (a)(1) actuarially adjusted to the date the benefit commences utilizing an interest rate assumption of 5%. For determinations made after December 31, 1998, the mortality assumptions to be used in determining actuarial equivalence for purposes of this subsection (c) shall be taken from the “applicable mortality table” prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to Section 417(e)(3)(A)(ii)(l) of the Code.

(d) If the Participant has less than ten (10) years of participation in the Plan, the dollar limitation in subsection (a)(1) is reduced by one-tenth for each year of participation (or part thereof) less than ten (10). To the extent provided in regulations or in other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service, the preceding sentence shall be applied separately with respect to each change in the benefit structure of the Plan. If the Participant has less than ten (10) years of service with the Affiliated Employers, the amount in subsection (a)(2) is reduced by one-tenth for each year of service (or part thereof) less than ten (10). The adjustments contained herein shall be applied in the denominator of the defined benefit fraction described in subsection (g)(1) based upon years of service. Years of service shall include future years occurring before the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date. Such future years shall include the year which contains the date the Participant reaches Normal Retirement Date, only if it can be reasonably anticipated that the Participant will receive a year of service for such year.

(e) If the Participant’s benefit is payable in a form other than a straight life annuity or a qualified joint and survivor annuity, the benefit shall be adjusted to an actuarial equivalent

straight life annuity before applying the limitations of this Section 6.01. For determinations made before January 1, 1999, such actuarially equivalent straight life annuity is equal to the annuity benefit computed using an interest rate of 7 percent (7%). For determinations made after December 31, 1998, except as otherwise provided in the next sentence, the actuarially equivalent straight life annuity is equal to the greater of the annuity benefit computed using an interest rate of 7% and mortality assumptions described in Section 2(b) of Appendix A, and the annuity benefit computed using a 5 percent (5%) interest rate assumption and the “applicable mortality table” defined in Section 417(e)(3)(A)(ii)(l) of the Code. In determining the actuarially equivalent straight life annuity for a benefit in the form of a lump sum, the “applicable interest rate,” as defined in Section 417(e)(3)(A)(ii)(ll) of the Code, shall be substituted for “a 5 percent (5%) interest rate assumption” in the preceding sentence.

(f) (1) This subsection (1) shall apply to Limitation Years that begin before January 1, 2000. In the case of any Employee who is a Participant in this Plan and in any defined contribution plan of the Affiliated Employers, the sum of the defined benefit plan fraction and the defined contribution plan fraction for any year shall not exceed 1.0. In the event the sum of such fractions exceeds 1.0, the annual benefits under this Plan shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the sum of such fractions determined with respect to the Employee does not exceed 1.0.

(2) This subsection (2) shall apply to Limitation Years that begin after December 31,1999 and shall apply only with respect to Participants who have an Accrued Benefit on or after January 1, 2000. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Accrued Benefit of a Participant, including a Participant who is receiving benefits under this Plan, shall be increased as provided herein and in accordance with Internal Revenue Service Notice 99-44 (and subsequent guidance). For this purpose, the benefit payable to any Participant who has commenced benefits under the Plan before January 1, 2000 in a form that is not subject to Section 417(e)(3) of the Code shall be increased to the benefit that would have been permitted for any Limitation Year beginning on or after January 1, 2000 under this Section 6.01 if subsection (f)(1) had not limited the benefit at the time of commencement. The benefit payable to any Participant who has commenced benefits under the Plan before January 1, 2000 in a form that is subject to Section 417(e)(3) of the Code shall be increased by an amount that is Actuarially Equivalent to the amount of increase that could have been provided had the benefit been paid in the form of a straight life annuity.

(3) Notwithstanding subsection (f)(2), the Accrued Benefit of Participants who, prior to January 1, 2000, received benefit payments from either this Plan, the Raytheon

Excess Pension Plan, or from both plans (or the predecessor plans thereto), shall not be increased in excess of the remaining payments that were scheduled to be made from both plans as of January 1, 2000.

(g) For purposes of applying the limitations of subsection (f)(1), the following definitions shall apply:

(1) The term “defined benefit plan fraction” shall mean a fraction the numerator of which is the projected annual benefit payable under this Plan and any other defined benefit plan of the Affiliated Employers (determined as of the close of the Limitation Year), and the denominator of which is the lesser of the product of 125% multiplied by the dollar limitation in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for such year, or the amount determined under subsection (a)(2) multiplied by 140%.

(2) the term “defined contribution plan fraction” shall mean the aggregate annual additions to all of the Affiliated Employers’ defined contribution plans (whether or not terminated), including the annual additions attributable to any nondeductible employee contributions to any other defined benefit plans of the Affiliated Employers (whether or not terminated) determined as of the close of the Limitation Year without regard to limitations on contributions over the sum of the lesser of the following amounts determined for such year and for each prior year of service with the Affiliated Employers: the dollar limitation determined under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for such year (determined without regard to Section 415(c)(6) of the Code) multiplied by 125%, or 35% of the Participant’s Compensation determined for such year.

(h) If the benefit the Participant would otherwise accrue in a Limitation Year would produce an annual benefit in excess of the maximum permissible amount provided in subsection (a), the rate of accrual will be reduced so that the annual benefit will equal the maximum permissible amount.

(i) (1) In no event shall a Participant’s maximum annual benefit allowable under this Section 6.01 be less than the greater of the following amounts:

(A) the Participant’s GATT old law benefit; or

(B) the Participant’s GATT old law benefit plus the portion of the Participant’s total benefit that exceeds the Participant’s GATT old law benefit (after application of the limitations otherwise prescribed in this Section 6.01).

(2) For purposes of this Section 6.01(i), a Participant’s “GATT old law benefit” is an amount equal to the Participant’s Accrued Benefit under the terms of the Plan as of December 31, 1998 (the “GATT freeze date”), for the Benefit Commencement Date and optional form and taking into account the old law limitations. In determining the amount of a Participant’s

GATT old law benefit, the following amounts shall be disregarded: (i) any Plan amendment increasing benefits adopted after the GATT freeze date, and (ii) any cost of living adjustments that become effective after the GATT freeze date. A Participant’s GATT old law benefit is not increased after the GATT freeze date, but if the old law limitations, as applied as of a subsequent determination date, are less than the limitations that were applied to determine the Participant’s GATT old law benefit on the GATT freeze date, then the Participant’s GATT old law benefit will be reduced in accordance with such reduced limitations. If, at any date after the GATT freeze date, the Participant’s total Accrued Benefit, before the application of Section 415 of the Code, is less than the Participant’s GATT old law benefit, the GATT old law benefit will be reduced to the Participant’s total Accrued Benefit.

(3) For purposes of this Section 6.01(i), the “old law limitations” are the limitations of Section 415 of the Code, as in effect on December 7, 1994, including the participation requirements under Section 415(b)(5) of the Code. For all determinations using the old law assumptions, an interest rate of 7 percent (7%) and the dollar limitation prescribed in Section 6.01(a)(1) shall be the amounts in effect as of the particular date of determination (the GATT freeze date or subsequent determination date, as applicable). For purposes of determining a Participant’s GATT old law benefit, the old law limitations are applied using all Plan terms that were in effect on December 7, 1994 and that are relevant in determining actuarial equivalence under Section 415(b)(2)(E) of the Code. For determinations made after the GATT freeze date, the old law limitations are applied using all applicable Plan terms in effect on the date of determination.

(j) The benefit increases resulting from the changes in Subsections 6.01(a)(1), (b) and (c) for Limitation Years ending after December 31, 2001, which reflect the amendments to Section 415(b) of the Code by the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (“EGTRRA changes”), shall be provided to all current and former Participants who have an Accrued Benefit under the Plan on or after December 31, 2001 (other than an Accrued Benefit resulting from a benefit increase solely as a result of the EGTRRA changes). Except as otherwise provided herein, the Accrued Benefit of a Participant, including a Participant who is receiving benefits under this Plan, shall be increased as provided herein and in accordance with Internal Revenue Service Revenue Ruling 2001-51 (and subsequent guidance). For this purpose, the benefit payable to any Participant who has commenced benefits under the Plan before January 1, 2002 in a form that is not subject to Section 417(e)(3) of the Code shall be increased to the benefit that would have been permitted for any Limitation Year ending on or after January 1, 2002 under this Section 6.01 if the EGTRRA changes had been effective on the Benefit Commencement Date. The benefit payable

to any Participant who has commenced benefits under the Plan before January 1, 2002 in a form that is subject to Section 417(e)(3) of the Code shall be increased by an amount that is Actuarially Equivalent to the amount of increase that could have been provided had the benefit been paid in the form of a straight life annuity.

6.02	Restrictions on Twenty-Five Highest Paid Employees

(a) Restrictions of Benefits: In the event of Plan termination, the benefit hereunder of any highly compensated Employee and any highly compensated former Employee (as defined in Section 414(q) of the Code) is limited to a benefit that is nondiscriminatory under Section 401(a)(4) of the Code.

(b) Restrictions on Distribution: The annual payments to any “high-25” Employee (defined below) are restricted to an amount equal to the payments that would be made on behalf of the Employee under (i) a single life annuity that is the Actuarial Equivalent of the sum of the Employee’s Accrued Benefit and the Employee’s other benefits under the Plan (other than a social security supplement), and (ii) any payments the Employee is entitled to receive under a social security supplement. The restrictions do not apply, however if:

(1)

After payment to such Employee of all such benefits, the value of Plan assets equals or exceeds one hundred ten percent (110%) of the value of current liabilities (as defined in Section 412(1)(7) of the Code), or

(2)

The value of such benefits for such an Employee is less than one percent (1%) of the value of such current liabilities, or

(3)

(1)

If the Participant at the date of death was eligible to retire and receive a benefit under the Plan at an Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement Date, including early commencement of a Deferred Vested Benefit, then his surviving spouse shall automatically receive a death benefit in an amount equal to one-half of the amount of retirement benefit which would have been payable to the spouse if the Participant had retired on the day preceding his death, under whichever benefit provides the greatest amount, with payments in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity.

(2)

If the Participant at the date of death was not eligible to retire under the Plan and receive a benefit under the Plan at a Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement Date, then the Participant’s surviving spouse shall receive an automatic spousal death benefit in an amount equal to the amount that would have been payable to the spouse under the normal form of payment under Section 9.01, assuming:

(b)

An “eligible spouse” under this section is the surviving spouse to whom a Participant has been married throughout the one-year period ending on the date of his death.

(c)

The “coverage effective date” shall be the later of: (i) The date on which the Participant has both attained age 55 and completed five years of Credited Service, and (ii) two years following the date on which the election for coverage is filed with the Employer. If the Participant dies due to accidental causes prior to the coverage effective date, but after he has both attained age 55 and completed five years of Credited Service, and during the two-year election period, the coverage effective date shall be deemed to be the date he filed his election with the Employer. If a Participant’s coverage under this section has been discontinued as a result of an event described in subsection (d), the Participant may elect to file a new election for coverage subject to all of the conditions described above. The two-year election period shall not apply for a Participant who elects coverage within 30 days of the date that he is notified of his option to resume coverage, if his prior coverage discontinuance date was the result of attainment of his Normal Retirement Date and there was no interruption in his period of Active Employment between his Normal Retirement Date and January 1, 1991.

(d)

The “coverage discontinuance date” shall be the earliest of the following dates:

(1)

The effective date specified in a notice filed with the Employer to discontinue coverage under this section, which notice is subject to consent of the Participant’s spouse and shall not be effective prior to the date it is received by the Employer.

The date of the Participant’s divorce from his eligible spouse.

(5)

The date on which the Participant’s period of Active Employment is terminated.

(6)

The Participant’s Benefit Commencement Date.

(e)

If this option becomes effective, the benefits which are subsequently payable to the Participant, his eligible spouse, if any, or his contingent annuitant, if any, shall be reduced by the percentage factor described in Appendix B for the period during which the option was in effect between the coverage effective date and the coverage discontinuance date.

(f)

In lieu of the monthly annuity provided under subsection (a), the surviving spouse may elect to receive the benefit under this section in a single payment that is the lump sum Actuarial Equivalent of the monthly annuity.

(g)

The “election period” for purposes of this section shall commence two years and 90 days before the Participant has both attained age 55 and completed five years of Credited Service and shall end on his Severance from Service Date.

(h)

When this option becomes effective, the Participant’s Accrued Benefit shall be reduced by the sum of the applicable percentage factors, as determined from the table in Appendix B, for each year during which the coverage is in effect. The annual reduction factor shall be prorated for each month that coverage is in effect.

8.04	Limitation on Total Benefit

Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the following limitations shall apply with respect to the benefits provided under the preceding sections of this Article 8.

(a)

The sum of (1) whichever benefit is applicable under Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.02 and (2) the monthly benefit payable under Section 8.03(a), shall not exceed 100% of the Participant’s “anticipated normal retirement benefit.” The “anticipated normal retirement benefit” is the benefit that would be payable to the Participant in the form of a life annuity

at Normal Retirement Date if he had continued Credited Service and received compensation at the same rate of pay to his Normal Retirement Date, or to his Postponed Retirement Date, if later.

(b)

For purposes of applying the limitation in subparagraph (a) the amount of monthly benefit provided in Section 8.03(a) shall be reduced to an amount which will prevent the combined benefit under the preceding sections of Article 8 from exceeding the limitation described in subparagraph (a) above.

ARTICLE 9

9.06	Beneficiary

A Participant may name a Joint Annuitant who is an individual for a Joint and Survivor Annuity option. For a years certain and life income option, the Participant may elect, in writing, an individual or individuals, or any entity or entities, including corporations, partnerships or trusts, provided that such individuals and entities are ascertainable, and the shares of each are clearly set forth.

The claimant or representative may review pertinent documents relating to the claim and its denial, may submit issues and comments in writing to the Committee and may request a hearing. Within sixty (60) days after receipt of such a request for review, the Committee shall reconsider the claim, and if the claimant shall have so requested, shall afford the claimant or his representative a hearing before the Committee and make a decision on the merits of the claim. If circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim, the sixty (60) day period may be extended but in no event more than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the receipt of a request for review. The decision on review will be in writing and include specific reasons and references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based. Any adverse decision shall inform the claimant about the right to bring a civil action under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

ARTICLE 12

Funding Policy and Contributions

12.01

Employer Contributions

The Employer intends to make contributions to fund this Plan at such times and in such amounts as the Actuary shall certify to the Employer as being no less than the amounts required to be contributed under Section 412 of the Code. Any actuarial gains arising under the Plan shall be used to reduce future Employer contributions to the Plan and shall not be applied to increase retirement benefits with respect to remaining Participants.

12.02

Participant Contributions

Participant contributions to the Fund are not permitted.

12.03

Contingent Nature of Contributions

Unless the Employer notifies the Committee and the Funding Agent in writing to the contrary, all contributions made to this Plan are conditioned upon their deductibility under Section 404 of the Code.

ARTICLE 13

Amendment, Termination and Merger of the Plan

13.01

Right to Amend the Plan

The Plan Sponsor reserves the right to modify, alter or amend this Plan from time to time to any extent that it may deem advisable including, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any amendment deemed necessary to ensure the continued qualification of the Plan under Section 401 of the Code or the appropriate provisions of any subsequent revenue law. The procedure for the Plan Sponsor to amend the Plan in any respect is approval of the amendment by a majority of the members of the Plan Sponsor’s Board of Directors and with respect to non-substantive matters for purposes of maintaining the qualified status of the Plan is by a majority of the members of the Committee. Action by the Board of Directors or the Committee amending the Plan shall be a settlor function of the Plan Sponsor and not a fiduciary function of the Board of Directors or the Committee. No such amendment shall increase the duties or responsibilities of a Funding Agent without its consent thereto in writing. No such amendment(s) shall have the effect of reinvesting in the Employer the whole or any part of the principal or income of the Fund or to allow any portion of the principal or income of the Fund to be used for any purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants or Beneficiaries at any time prior to the satisfaction of all the liabilities under the Plan with respect to such persons. No amendment shall (a) reduce a Participant’s Accrued Benefit on the effective date of the Plan amendment, (b) eliminate or reduce an early retirement benefit, retirement-type subsidy or an optional form of benefit under the Plan with respect to the Participant’s Accrued Benefit on the date of the amendment, (c) reduce a retired Participant’s retirement benefit as of the effective date of the amendment, or (d) directly or indirectly reduce the nonforfeitable percentage of a Participant’s right to his or her Accrual Benefit to an amount less than the nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan without regard to the amendment.

13.02

Right to Terminate the Plan

The Plan Sponsor shall have the right to terminate this Plan at any time with respect to itself, any or all other Participating Employers or any designated group of Employees, former Employees or Beneficiaries. The procedure for the Plan Sponsor to terminate the Plan is approval of the termination by a majority of the members of the Plan Sponsor’s Board of Directors. Action by the Board of Directors terminating the Plan shall be a settlor function of the Plan Sponsor and not a fiduciary function of the Board of Directors. In the event of such termination all affected Participants shall be vested as provided in Section 7.05.

13.03

Allocation of Assets and Surplus

In the event the Plan shall be terminated as provided in Section 13.02 above, the then present value of retirement benefits vested in each Participant shall be determined as of the discontinuance date, and the assets then held by the Funding Agents as reserves for benefits for Participants, Joint Annuitants or Beneficiaries under this Plan shall, subject to any necessary approval by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, be allocated, to the extent that they shall be sufficient, after providing for expenses of administration, in the order of precedence provided for under Section 4044 of ERISA, as modified by the provisions of IRS regulations 1.414(l)-1(f) or (h) if a special schedule of benefits (as defined in such regulations) is in effect as a result of a plan merger within the five year period prior to the date of termination. The retirement benefits for which funds have been allocated in accordance with Section 4044 of ERISA shall be provided through the continuance of the existing Fund arrangements or through a new instrument entered into for that purpose and shall be paid either in a lump sum or in equal monthly installments through the purchase of a nontransferable annuity contract(s). After all liabilities of the Plan have been satisfied with respect to all Participants so affected by the Plan’s termination, the Funding Agent shall distribute any balance of Plan assets which shall remain to Participants in the proportion that each Participant’s liability bears to the total liability of all Participants.

13.04

Plan Mergers, Consolidations and Transfers

The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by the Employer’s acquisition by or merger into any other company, trade or business, but the Plan shall be continued after such merger provided the successor employer agrees to continue the Plan with respect to affected Participants herein. All rights to amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan with respect to Participants of the Employer shall be transferred to the successor employer, effective as of the date of the merger or acquisition. The merger or consolidation with, or transfer of the allocable portion of the assets and liabilities of the Fund to any other qualified retirement plan trust shall be permitted only if the benefit each Plan Participant would receive, if the Plan were terminated immediately after such merger or consolidation, or transfer of the allocable portion of the assets and liabilities, would be at least as great as the benefit he would have received had this Plan been terminated immediately before the date of merger, consolidation or transfer.

13.05

Amendment of Vesting Schedule

If the vesting provisions of this Plan are amended, including an amendment caused by the expiration of top-heavy status under the terms of Article 14, Participants with three (3) or more Years of Service, or three (3) or more years of employment, whether or not consecutive, at the later of the date the amendment is adopted or becomes effective, shall automatically be vested, from that point forward, in the greater of the amount vested under the vesting schedule as amended or the amount vested under the vesting schedule prior to amendment.

ARTICLE 14

Top-Heavy Plan Provisions

14.01

General Rule

For any Plan Year for which this Plan is a “Top-Heavy Plan” as defined in Section 14.06 below, this Plan shall be subject to the provisions of this Article 14.

14.02

Vesting Provision

Each Participant who has completed an Hour of Service during the Plan Year in which the Plan is top-heavy and has completed the number of Years of Vesting Service specified in the following table, shad have a vested right to the percentage of his Accrued Benefit under this Plan, correspondingly shown in the following table:


Years of Vesting Service		Percentage of Accrued Benefit
Less than 2 years		0%
2		20%
3		40%
4		60%
5		80%
6 or more		100%

Each Participant’s Deferred Vested Benefit shall not be less than his vested Accrued Benefit determined as of the last day of the last Plan Year in which the Plan was not a Top-Heavy Plan. If the Plan ceases to be a Top-Heavy Plan, an Employee with three or more years of employment, whether or not consecutive, shall have his Deferred Vested Benefit determined either in accordance with this Section 14.02 or Section 7.03, as provided in Section 13.05. Each such Participant shall have the right to elect the applicable schedule within 60 days after the day he is issued written notice by the Committee, or as otherwise provided in accordance with regulations issued under the provisions of the Code relating to changes in the vesting schedule.

14.03

Minimum Benefit Provision

If the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan in any Plan Year, each Participant who is a Non-Key Employee shall, as of the end of that Plan Year, be entitled to an Accrued Benefit that is at least equal to the Applicable Percentage of the Participant’s Average Compensation for Years in the Testing Period. For purposes of this Section:

(a)

“Applicable Percentage” shall mean the lesser of two (2) percent multiplied by Years of Service of the Participant, or twenty (20) percent;

(b)

“Average Compensation for Years in the Testing Period” shall mean average annual earnings for that period of five (5) consecutive years that produces the highest average. In determining consecutive years, any year not included as a Year of Vesting Service under the provisions of Article 2 shall be ignored. In calculating Average Compensation for Years in the Testing Period, the amount of compensation taken into account shall not exceed $200,000 times the Adjustment Factor applicable at the date such benefits are calculated.

14.04

Change in 415(e) Limits

If the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan the combined plan limit of Section 415(e) of the Code shall be applied by substituting “1.0” for “1.25” in Code Sections 415(e)(2)(b) and 415(e)(3)(b). The first sentence of this Section 14.04 will not apply if the Plan is not a Super Top-Heavy Plan, as defined in Section 14.06, and if the Accrued Benefit of each Participant would meet the requirements of Section 14.03 if the Applicable Percentage under that Section were the lesser of (a) or (b) where:

(a)

is three (3) percent multiplied by Years of Service

(b)

is twenty (20) percent increased by one (1) percent for each year the Plan was subject to the change in 415(e) limits under this Section 14.04, but not to more than 30 percent.

14.05

Coordination with Other Plans

In the event that another defined contribution or defined benefit plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer provides contributions or benefits on behalf of Participants in this Plan, such other plan shall be treated as part of this Plan pursuant to applicable principles (such as Rev. Rul. 81-202 or any successor ruling) in determining whether this Plan satisfies the requirements of Sections 14.02 and 14.03. Such determination shall be made upon the advice of counsel by the Committee.

14.06

Top-Heavy and Super Top-Heavy Plan Definition

This Plan shall be a “Top-Heavy Plan” for any Plan Year if, as of the determination date (as defined in subsection 14.06(a)) the present value of the cumulative Accrued Benefits under the Plan for Participants (including former Participants) who are Key Employees (as defined in Section 14.07) exceeds sixty (60) percent of the present value of the cumulative Accrued Benefits under the Plan for all Participants, excluding former Key Employees, or if this Plan is required to be in an aggregation group (as defined in Section 14.06(c)) which for such Plan Year is a top-heavy group (as defined in Section 14.06(d)). This Plan shall be a “Super Top-Heavy Plan” for any Plan Year if it meets the above definition after substituting “ninety (90) percent” for “sixty (60) percent.” For purposes of this Section:

(a)

“Determination date” means for any Plan Year the last day of the immediately preceding Plan Year (except that for the first Plan Year of this Plan the determination date means the last day of such Plan Year).

(b)

The present value shall be determined as of the most recent valuation date (the date on which liabilities and assets are valued for purposes of determining plan costs for minimum funding) that is within the twelve (12)-month period ending on the determination date. Present values for purposes of determining whether this Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan shall be based on the following interest and mortality rates:

(1)

Interest Rate: 7%

(2)

Mortality Rate: 1971 Group Annuity Mortality Table, male rates, with one year age setback

(c)

“Aggregation group” means the group of plans, if any, that includes both the group of plans that are required to be aggregated and the group of plans that are permitted to be aggregated.

(1)

The group of plans that are required to be aggregated (the “required aggregation group”) includes:

(i)

Each plan of an Affiliated Employer in which a Key Employee is a participant, including collectively bargained plans.

(ii)

Each other plan, including collectively bargained plans of an Affiliated Employer, which enables a plan in which a Key Employee is a participant to meet the requirements of the Code prohibiting discrimination as to contributions or benefits in favor of employees who are officers, shareholders or the highly compensated or prescribing the minimum participation standards.

(2)

The group of plans that are permitted to be aggregated (the “permissive aggregation group”) includes the required aggregation group plus one or more plans of an Affiliated Employer that is not part of the required aggregation group. Such plan or plans may be added to the permissive aggregation group only if, after the addition, the aggregation group as a whole continues to satisfy the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code.

(d)

“Top-heavy group” means the aggregation group, if as of the applicable determination date, the sum of the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all defined benefit plans included in the aggregation group plus the aggregate of the accounts of key employees under all defined contribution plans included in the aggregation group

exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the sum of the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for all Employees, excluding former Key Employees, under all such defined benefit plans plus the aggregate accounts for all Employees, excluding former Key Employees, under such defined contribution plans. If the aggregation group that is a top-heavy group is a required aggregation group, each plan in the group will be top heavy. If the aggregation group that is a top-heavy group is a permissive aggregation group, only those plans that are part of the required aggregation group will be treated as top-heavy. If the aggregation group is not a top-heavy group, no plan within such group will be top-heavy.

(e)

In determining whether this Plan constitutes a “Top-Heavy Plan,” the Committee (or its agent) shall make the following adjustments in connection therewith:

(1)

When more than one plan is aggregated, the Committee shall determine separately for each plan as of each plan’s determination date the present value of the accrued benefits or account balance. The results shall then be aggregated by adding the results of each plan as of the determination dates for such plans that fall within the same calendar year.

(2)

For Plan Years beginning before January 1, 2002, in determining the present value of the cumulative accrued benefit or the amount of the account of any Employee, such present value or account shall include the amount in dollar value of the aggregate distributions made to such Employee under the applicable plan during the five-year period ending on the determination date, unless reflected in the value of the accrued benefit or account balance as of the most recent valuation date. For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2001, in determining the present value of the cumulative accrued benefit or the amount of the account of any Employee, such present value or account shall include the amount in dollar value of the aggregate distributions made to such Employees under the applicable plan during the one-year period ending on the determination date. The preceding sentence shall also apply to distributions under a terminated plan which, had it not been terminated, would have been aggregated with the Plan under Section 416(g)(2)(A)(i) of the Code. In the case of a distribution made for a reason other than separation from service, death, or disability, the second sentence in this subsection (2) shall be applied by substituting “five-year period” for “one-year period.”

(3)

Further, in making such determination, such present value or such account shall include any rollover contribution (or similar transfer), as follows:

(i)

If the rollover contribution (or similar transfer) is initiated by the employee and made to or from a plan maintained by another employer, the plan providing the distribution shall include such distribution in the present value or such account; the plan accepting the distribution shall not include such distribution in the present value or such account unless the plan accepted it before December 31, 1983.

(ii)

If the rollover contribution (or similar transfer) is not initiated by the employee or made from a plan maintained by another employer, the plan accepting the distribution shall include such distribution in the present value or such account, whether the plan accepted the distribution before or after December 31, 1983; the plan making the distribution shall not include the distribution in the present value or such account.

(4)

Further, in making such determination, in any case where an individual is a “non-key employee,” as defined in Section 14.08 with respect to an applicable plan, but was a key employee with respect to such plan for any prior plan year, any accrued benefit and any account of such employee shall be altogether disregarded. For this purpose, to the extent that a key employee is deemed to be a key employee if he met the definition of key employee within any of the four preceding plan years, this provision shall apply following the end of such period of time.

14.07

Key Employee

(a) For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2001, the term “Key Employee” means any Employee or former Employee (including any deceased Employee) who at any time during the Plan Year that includes the determination date was an officer of one of the Adopting Employers having annual compensation for the Plan Year greater than one hundred thirty thousand dollars ($130,000) (as adjusted under Section 416(i)(l) of the Code for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2002), a five percent (5%) owner of one of the Adopting Employers, or a one percent (1%) owner of one of the Adopting Employers having annual compensation of more than one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000). The determination of who is a Key Employee will be made in accordance with Section 416(i)(l) of the Code and the applicable regulations and other guidance of general applicability issued thereunder.

(b) For Plan Years beginning before January 1, 2002, the term “Key Employee” means any Employee or former Employee under this Plan who, at any time during the Plan Year containing the determination date or during any of the four preceding Plan Years, is or was one of the following:

(1) An officer of the Employer having annual compensation greater than fifty percent (50%) of the amount in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for such Plan Year. Whether an individual is an officer shall be determined by the Committee on the basis of all the facts and circumstances, such as an individual’s authority, duties and term of office, not on the mere fact that the individual has the title of an officer. For any such Plan Year, there shall be treated as officers no more than the lesser of:

(i)

50 Employees, or

(ii)

the greater of three Employees or 10 percent of the Employees.

For this purpose, the highest paid officers shall be selected.

(2) One of the ten Employees owning (or considered as owning, within the meaning of the constructive ownership rules of the Code) the largest interests in an Affiliated Employer. An Employee who has some ownership interest is considered to be one of the top ten owners unless at least ten other Employees own a greater interest than the Employee. However, an Employee will not be considered a top ten owner for a plan year if the Employee earns less than the amount in effect under Code Section 415(c)(1)(A) as in effect for the calendar year in which the determination date falls.

(3) Any person who owns (or is considered as owning within the meaning of the constructive ownership rules of the Code) more than five percent of the outstanding stock of an Affiliated Employer or stock possessing more than five percent of the combined total voting power of all stock of the employer.

(4) A one percent owner of an Affiliated Employer having an annual compensation from the Employer of more than $150,000, and possessing more than five percent of the combined total voting power of all stock of an Affiliated Employer. For purposes of this section, compensation means compensation as defined in Section 415 of the Code.

For purposes of parts (1), (2), (3) and (4) of this definition, a beneficiary of a Key Employee shall be treated as a Key Employee. For purposes of parts (3) and (4), each Affiliated Employer is treated separately in determining ownership percentages; but, in determining the amount of compensation, each Affiliated Employer is taken into account.

14.08

Non-Key Employee

The term “Non-Key Employee” means any Participant who is not a Key Employee.

14.09

Collective Bargaining Rules

The provisions of Sections 14.02, 14.03 and 14.04 do not apply with respect to any Employee included in a unit of Employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement unless the application of such sections has been agreed upon with the collective bargaining agent.

ARTICLE 15

Miscellaneous

15.01

Limitation on Distributions

Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan regarding payment to Beneficiaries or Participants, or any other person, the Committee may withhold payment to any person if the Committee determines that such payment may expose the Plan to conflicting claims for payment. As a condition for any payments, the Committee may require such consent, representations, releases, waivers or other information as it deems appropriate. The Committee may, in its discretion, comply with the terms of any judgment or other judicial decree, order, settlement or agreement including, but not limited to, a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Code Section 414(p).

15.02

Limitation on Reversion of Contributions

Except as provided in subsections (a) through (c) below, Employer contributions made under the Plan will be held for the exclusive benefit of Participants, Joint Annuitants or Beneficiaries and may not revert to the Employer.

(a)

A contribution made by the Employer under a mistake of fact may be returned to the Employer within one (1) year after it is contributed to the Plan, to the extent that it exceeds the amount which would have been contributed, absent the mistake in fact.

(b)

A contribution conditioned on the Plan’s initial qualification under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code may be returned to the Employer, if the Plan does not qualify, within one (1) year after the date the Plan is denied qualification.

(c)

A contribution conditioned upon its deductibility under Section 404 of the Code, may be returned, to the extent the deduction is disallowed, to the Employer within one (1) year after the disallowance.

Earnings attributable to amounts which may be returned to the Employer pursuant to this Section may not be distributed, but, in the event that there are losses attributable to such amounts, the amount returned to the Employer shall be reduced by the amount of such losses.

15.03

Voluntary Plan

The Plan is purely voluntary on the part of the Employer and neither the establishment of the Plan nor any Plan amendment nor the creation of any fund or account, nor the payment of any benefits will be construed as giving any Employee or any person legal or equitable right against the Employer, any trustee or other Funding Agent, or the Committee unless specifically

provided for in this Plan or conferred by affirmative action of the Committee or the Employer according to the terms and provisions of this Plan. Such actions will not be construed as giving any Employee or Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Employer. All Employees and/or Participants will remain subject to discharge to the same extent as though this Plan had not been established.

15.04

Nonalienation of Benefits

Participants and Beneficiaries are entitled to all the benefits specifically set out under the terms of the Plan, but neither those benefits nor any of the property rights in the Plan are assignable or distributable to any creditor or other claimant of a Participant or Beneficiary. A Participant will not have the right to anticipate, assign, pledge, accelerate, or in any way dispose of or encumber any of the monies or benefits or other property that may be payable or become payable to such Participant or his Beneficiary provided, however, the Committee shall recognize and comply with a valid Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Code Section 414(p). Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective August 5, 1997, a Participant’s benefits under this Plan can be used to satisfy an amount that the Participant is ordered or required to pay to the Plan to the extent permitted by Code Section 401(a)(13)(C), which generally applies if such order or requirement to pay arises (i) under a judgment of conviction for a crime involving the Plan, (ii) under a civil judgment (including a consent order or decree) entered in an action brought in connection with a violation (or alleged violation) of the ERISA fiduciary responsibility provisions, or (iii) pursuant to a settlement agreement between the Secretary of Labor and the Participant, or a settlement agreement between the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation and the Participant, in connection with a violation (or alleged violation) of the ERISA fiduciary responsibility provisions.

15.05

Inability to Receive Benefits

If the Committee receives evidence that a person entitled to receive any payment under the Plan is physically or mentally incompetent to receive payment and to give a valid release, and another person or any institution is maintaining or has custody of such person, and no guardian, committee, or other representative of the estate of such person has been duly appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then any distribution made under the Plan may be made to such other person or institution. The release of such other person or institution will be a valid and complete discharge for the payment of such distribution.

15.06

Missing Persons

If the Committee is unable, after reasonable and diligent effort, to locate a Participant, Joint Annuitant, or Beneficiary where no contingent beneficiary is provided under the Plan, who

is entitled to a distribution under the Plan, the distribution due such person will be forfeited after five (5) years. If, however, such a person later files a claim for such benefit, it will be reinstated without any interest earned thereon. In the event that a distribution is due to a Beneficiary where a contingent beneficiary is provided under the Plan (including the situation on which the contingent beneficiary is the Participant’s estate), and the Committee is unable, after reasonable and diligent effort, to locate the Beneficiary, the benefit shall be payable to the contingent beneficiary, and such non-locatable Beneficiary shall have no further claim or interest hereunder. Notification by certified or registered mail to the last known address of the Participant or Beneficiary will be deemed a reasonable and diligent effort to locate such person.

15.07

Limitation of Third Party Rights

Nothing expressed or implied in the Plan is intended or will be construed to confer upon or give to any person, firm, or association other than the Employer, the Participants or Beneficiaries, and their successors in interest, any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Plan except pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Code Section 414(p).

15.08

Invalid Provisions

In case any provision of this Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan. The Plan will be construed and enforced as if the illegal and invalid provisions had never been included.

15.09

One Plan

This Plan may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and the counterparts will constitute one and the same instrument and may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart.

15.10

Use and Form of Words

Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine gender, they will be construed as though they were also used in the feminine gender in all cases where that gender would apply, and vice versa. Whenever any words are used herein in the singular form, they will be construed as though they were also used in the plural form in all cases where the plural form would apply, and vice versa.

15.11

Headings

Headings to Articles and Sections are inserted solely for convenience and reference, and in the case of any conflict, the text, rather than the headings, shall control.

15.12

Governing Law

The Plan will be governed by and construed according to the federal laws governing employee benefit plans qualified under the Code and according to the laws of the state of Kansas where such laws are not in conflict with the federal laws.

ARTICLE 16

Special Eligibility Rules

16.1	Applicability

This Article is effective January 1, 2007 (except section 16.4 of this Article is effective March 1, 2007), and supersedes all other provisions of this Plan, including any provisions that purport to apply notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, unless such provisions specifically refer to this Article.

16.2	Special Eligibility Rules

A person who first performs an Hour of Service on or after January 1, 2007, shall not be eligible to participate in this plan.

A person who incurs a Separation from Service, and next performs an Hour of Service on or after January 1, 2007, after expiration of any salary continuation payments, shall not be eligible to participate in this plan. Such a person’s benefit shall be the accrued benefit determined as of the date (the “Benefit Determination Date”) that is the earlier of (i) the date immediately before the date on which the person performs an Hour of Service following the person’s most recent Separation from Service, and (ii) the date on which the person stopped earning a benefit under the plan. That accrued benefit will be the pension defined in the plan as having been earned as of the Benefit Determination Date, and will be based on all factors relevant under the plan as they exist on the Benefit Determination Date (including age, earnings, eligibility for early retirement, credited service or plan membership, estimated Social Security benefit, minimum benefit level, and any other personal or plan factors affecting the pension in its standard form). Service after the Benefit Determination Date will be counted, to the extent provided in the relevant provisions of the pension plan, only for determining vesting, eligibility for early retirement, and eligibility for any retirement subsidies.

A person who (i) first performs an Hour of Service before January 1, 2007, and either (ii) does not incur a Separation from Service, or (iii) incurs a Separation from Service but then performs an Hour of Service before expiration of any salary continuation payments, shall again be eligible to participate in this plan, subject to the other provisions of the plan.

16.3	Definitions

When used in this Article, the following terms have the following meaning:

Separation from Service. The termination of employment by reason of quit (including Retirement), discharge, Layoff (beyond the period of eligible recall pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement) or death; or the failure to return from Authorized Leave of Absence, Qualified Military Service or Disability.

Authorized Leave of Absence. An absence approved by an Employer on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis for any of the following reasons: illness of an Employee or a relative, the death of a relative, education of the Employee, or personal or family business of an extraordinary nature, provided in each case that the Employee returns to the service of the Employer within the time period specified by the Employer.

Disability. A Participant who is totally and permanently disabled by bodily injury or disease so as to be prevented from engaging in any occupation for compensation or profit. The determination of Disability shall be made by the Administrator with the aid of competent medical advice. It shall be based on such evidence as the Administrator deems necessary to establish Disability or the continuation thereof.

Layoff. An involuntary interruption of service due to reduction of work force with the possibility of recall to employment when conditions warrant.

Qualified Military Service. Any service in the uniformed services by any Employee if such Employee is entitled to reemployment rights under Chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code, provided, the Employee returns to employment, with the Employer within the applicable time limits prescribed in Chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code.

Retirement. A termination of employment that occurs after a Participant has either attained age 55 and completed at least ten (10) years or periods of service, as determined under the plan, or reached age 65.

16.4	Pension Plan Distributee

A Pension Plan Distributee shall not be eligible to participate in this plan. “Pension Plan Distributee” means a person who incurred a Separation from Service, becomes an Employee again on or after March 1, 2007, and is receiving or has ever received a distribution from a Pension Plan, regardless of whether the person met or meets the age and service conditions for retirement under the Pension Plan, and regardless of the form of benefit selected by the person. “Pension Plan” means a defined benefit pension plan intended to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Code and sponsored by the Company or a member of the Company’s controlled group of corporations within the meaning of section 414(b) of the Code. A person is not a Pension Plan Distributee if the only payments made to the person by a Pension Plan are: (a) a distribution of a lump sum cashout that was made without participant consent under section 417(e) of the Code; (b) a return of the person’s contributions under a Pension Plan and the

interest credited under the Pension Plan on those contributions; or (c) a transfer of pension assets and the liabilities corresponding to those assets to the pension plan of an entity to which the Company disposes of a business or function. A person also is not a Pension Plan Distributee if, after first receiving a distribution from a Pension Plan, the person becomes an Employee as a result of the Company’s acquisition of a business that employed the person at the time of the acquisition.

APPENDIX A

Procedures For Calculation Of Actuarial Equivalent Values

Each “Actuarial Equivalent Value” under this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the following methods, tables, interest rates and other factors. References to the “PBGC rates” mean the set of rates used by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation for purposes of valuing lump sum distributions under terminating non-multiemployer pension plans.

1.	Lump Sum Payment Option - For purposes of determining/converting to a lump sum value, the following factors shall be used:

(a)

Rate of Interest: For determinations before January 1, 1999, the PBGC rates in effect on the first day of the Plan Year for which the distribution is made. For determinations after December 31, 1998, the annual rate of interest on 30-year Treasury securities as specified by the Commissioner for the month of November preceding the Plan Year in which the distribution is made.

(b)

Mortality: For determinations before January 1, 1999, the PBGC mortality rate table for healthy males with ages of the Participant set back one year and ages of the spouse or Joint Annuitant set back four years. For determinations after December 31, 1998 and before December 31, 2002, the 1983 Group Annuity Mortality Table using a blend of fifty percent (50%) of the male table and fifty percent (50%) of the female table. For determinations on or after December 31, 2002, the 94 GAR/GATT 2003 Mortality Table prescribed in Revenue Ruling 2001-62.

2.	Optional Forms Of Retirement Benefit - For purposes of determining an optional form of benefit payment (other than a lump sum) under Sections 6.01, 8.01, and 9.05, and for any purpose for which no other definition is specified, the following factors shall be used:

(a)

Rate of Interest: 7%

(b)

Mortality: The 1971 Group Annuity Mortality Table, male rates, with ages of the Participant set back one year and ages of the spouse or Joint Annuitant set back five years.

Notwithstanding the above, for purposes of computing installment amounts under Section 8.01, the factors in Section 1 of this Appendix A shall be used rather than the factors in this section 2, if the factors in Section 1 result in larger installment payments.

Asset Transfer Between Plans - Unless another basis is established by the Actuary to satisfy the requirements of Regulation Section 1.414 (l)-1 that asset transfers must be equal to the “present value of the benefits on a termination basis,” the asset transfer specified in Section 3.04 shall be based on the following factors:

(a)

Rate of Interest: 8%

Appendix A - 1

(b)

Mortality: The 1971 Group Annuity Mortality Table for males and females.

4.	Early Commencement Factors - For purposes of determining the amount of a retirement benefit payable on an early commencement date under Sections 5.04 and 5.05(b), the following factors shall be used:


Age At Early Commencement Date	Factor For Section 5.04	Factor For Section 5.05(b)

SUPPLEMENT A

Special Provisions

Applicable to Former Hangar One, Inc. Salaried Employees

A-1

Introduction. On December 31, 1987, the assets and liabilities held under the Hangar One, Inc. Restated Pension Plan and Trust (the “Hangar One Plan”) with respect to each salaried employee who was participating in the plan on that date were merged into this Plan. The purpose of this Supplement A is to provide for payment under the Plan of the additional benefits described below with respect to salaried employees of Hangar One, Inc. on December 31, 1987 who became Participants in the Plan on January 1, 1988 (hereinafter referred to as “Hangar One Salaried Employees”).

A-2	Vesting Service. For the purpose of determining the Vesting Service of a Hangar One Salaried Employee, but not for other purposes, periods of employment with Hangar One, Inc. occurring prior to March 30, 1983 shall be considered as employment with an Employer.

A-3

Accrued Benefit. The Accrued Benefit for a Hangar One Salaried Employee shall be equal to the sum of the Accrued Benefit defined in Section 5.01 of this Plan for periods of Credited Service after December 31, 1987 plus whichever of the amounts determined under subparagraphs (a), (b), or (c) below is the greatest.

(a)

Shall be equal to the applicable “dollar credit” determined under section 5.01 of the Beech Base Retirement Income Plan as of the Participant’s Termination Date multiplied by the Participant’s Credited Service for the period ending on December 31, 1987. For this purpose, Credited Service shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 of the Plan as it existed prior to January 1, 1989 as if all periods of employment after March 29, 1983 are considered to be employment as an “active participant” under the Plan.

(b)

Shall be equal to 1.09642, which is the factor for converting a ten-year certain and life annuity form to a life annuity form payable at age 65, multiplied by the amount, if any, identified in Exhibit A hereof as the Participant’s “Accrued Benefit 12/31/87,” and with the result multiplied by a fraction, not less than one, the numerator of which is the Participant’s Adjusted Average Annual Earnings on his Termination Date and the denominator of which is the Participant’s “Average Annual Earnings on 12/31/87” as set forth in Exhibit A. For this purpose, Adjusted Average Annual Earnings shall mean the highest annual average of a

Suppl A - 1

Participant’s compensation for any consecutive five completed calendar years of employment within the ten-year period immediately preceding his Termination Date. If a Participant has less than five completed years of employment, Adjusted Average Annual Earnings shall be based on the average of all completed calendar years of employment. A Participant’s compensation shall include his total compensation, exclusive of any fringe benefits, paid by the Employer and includible during a calendar year in his gross income for Federal income tax purposes plus any reduced compensation amounts attributable to the Participant’s participation under an IRS qualified section 401(k) plan or a section 125 cafeteria plan. In calculating Adjusted Average Annual Compensation between January 1, 1989 and December 31, 1993, total compensation for any calendar year shall not exceed $200,000 times the Adjustment Factor applicable for that calendar year with $200,000 applied for all years prior to January 1, 1989. In calculating Adjusted Average Annual Compensation on or after January 1, 1994, total compensation for any calendar year shall not exceed $150,000 times the Adjustment Factor applicable for such year with $150,000 applied for all years prior to January 1, 1994.

(c)

Shall be the Participant’s “Conversion Date Value,” if any, at his Normal Retirement Date (or his actual retirement date, if later) multiplied by the monthly life annuity conversion factor .0083. For this purpose, the “Conversion Date Value” shall be equal to the amount set forth in Exhibit A for an employee who was a participant in the Hangar One Plan as of December 1, 1976 accumulated with interest at the rate of 5% per year, compounded annually, to the date it is applied for the calculation of the Participant’s Accrued Benefit under this Plan.

A-4	Additional Rules. If and to the extent they are more favorable than any other provisions of this Plan, the following rules also apply to a Hangar One Salaried Employee.

(a)

If a Hangar One Salaried Employee has at least five (5) years but less than ten (10) years of “credited service” (as defined under the Hangar One Plan prior to January 1, 1988) as of January 1, 1988, he shall continue to become vested in his Accrued Benefit in accordance with the graded vesting schedule of section 5.01 of the Hangar One Plan. For the purpose of determining such graded vesting, the Participant’s “credited service” after January 1, 1988 shall be equal to his “credited service” on January 1, 1988 plus his years of Vesting Service earned under this Plan for periods of employment after December 31, 1987.

Suppl A - 2

(b)

A Hangar One Salaried Employee who is identified in Exhibit A with a Conversion Date Value on December 1, 1976 shall continue to have the benefit of the single-sum cash option defined in Section 6.06(b) of the Hangar One Plan and the survivorship benefits defined in Section 6.06(d) of the Hangar One Plan. In the event that a single-sum cash benefit is paid to or on behalf of a Participant under either of said sections, the amount of any benefit otherwise payable under the provisions of this Plan shall be reduced on an Actuarial Equivalent basis to reflect the value of the single-sum cash benefit so provided.

(c)

If a Hangar One Salaried Employee receives an Early Retirement Benefit under Section 5.04 of this Plan or a Deferred Vested Benefit under Section 5.05 of this Plan, the amount of his benefit, before adjustment for any optional form of payment, shall be at least equal to the greater of (i) his “Accrued Benefit 12/31/87,” as identified in Exhibit A, adjusted to the life annuity form or (ii) his vested percentage multiplied by the monthly amount defined in paragraph A-3(c) above, with either amount reduced by 5/18 of 1% for each month by which his first payment date precedes his Normal Retirement Date.
