ARTICLE 5

DISCRETIONARY COMPANY CREDITS

     The Company, in its sole discretion, may credit to selected Participants’ Deferral Accounts a discretionary amount or match in an amount determined by the Company. These amounts and subsequent earnings are subject to vesting schedules established by the Administrator.

ARTICLE 6

ACCOUNTS AND INVESTMENT OPTIONS

     6.1 Accounts. Solely for record keeping purposes, the Company shall maintain a Deferral Account under the Plan for each Participant. Annual Deferrals shall be credited by the Employer to the Participant’s Deferral Account at the time such amounts would otherwise have been paid to the Participant. Such Account shall be credited (and compounded daily) with a notional rate of return (positive or negative) based on the Declared Rate(s) elected by the Participant under Section 6.2. All Distributions shall be debited from the applicable Account on the Valuation Date.

     6.2 Participant Election of Declared Rates. The crediting rate on amounts in a Participant’s Deferral Account shall be based on the Participant’s choice among the investment alternatives made available from time to time by the Committee. The Administrator shall establish a procedure by which a Participant may make an Allocation Election among any combination of Declared Rates in one percent (1%) increments up to one hundred percent (100%) and may change the Declared Rate(s) at least once per week with such change(s) effective as of the first day of the next following week. Such investment elections may apply to future deferrals and/or to the existing Deferral Account balances, as indicated by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to set aside or invest funds as directed by the Participant and, if the Company elects to invest funds as directed by the Participant, the Participant shall have no more right to such investments than any other unsecured general creditor of the Company.

     6.3 Declared Rates. A Participant may select from Declared Rates which may from time to time be established under the Plan and the number of which may be expanded by the Committee; it being the intention that at all times Participants will have at least nine (9) core investment fund choices comparable in focus, type and quality to those listed on Exhibit A. The Declared Rates provide a rate of return (positive or negative) that are based on the actual net performance of the Declared Rate(s) selected by the Participant. The Declared Rates credited to Participant Deferral Accounts shall be the actual net performance of the Declared Rates, to which will be added a basis point credit, which credit (when added to the actual net performance of the Declared Rates) will together be

approximately equivalent on average to crediting the actual gross performance of the Declared Rates less twenty (20) basis points.

     6.4 Valuation of Deferral Accounts. The value of a Deferral Account as of any date shall equal the amounts theretofore credited or debited to such Deferral Account, plus the deemed earnings or losses of such Deferral Account in accordance with this Article 6 through the day immediately preceding such date.

     6.5 Vesting. A Participant shall be one hundred percent (100%) vested at all times in amounts credited to the Participant’s Deferral Accounts.

     6.6 Statement of Deferral Accounts. The Administrator (or an agent thereof) shall provide to each Participant periodic statements or on-line access to information setting forth the Participant’s deferrals, Declared Rate(s) (credits or debits), Distributions and Deferral Account balance.

     6.7 Errors in Benefit Statements, Deferrals, Distributions or Administration. In the event an error is made in a benefit statement, such error shall be corrected on the next benefit statement following the date such error is discovered. In the event of an error in the amount of a Participant’s deferral, immediately upon the discovery of such error, if possible, the next deferral of such Participant shall be adjusted upward or downward to correct such prior error subject to compliance with permissible corrections procedures established under Code Section 409A. In the event of an error in a Distribution, the applicable Participant’s Deferral Account shall, immediately upon the discovery of such error, be adjusted to reflect such under or over payment and, if possible, the next Distribution to such Participant shall be adjusted upward or downward to correct such prior error subject to compliance with permissible corrections procedures established under Code Section 409A. If the remaining balance of a Participant’s Deferral Account is insufficient to cover an erroneous overpayment to such Participant, the Company may, at its discretion, offset other amounts payable to the Participant from the Company to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, to recoup the amount of such overpayment(s). It is the intent of the Company that the Plan be interpreted and administered to comply in all respects with Code Section 409A. However, Participants and/or their Beneficiaries shall be responsible for any and all taxes resulting from participation in the Plan, and the Company shall have no liability to the Participant or any Beneficiary in the event any taxes or excise taxes may ultimately be determined to be applicable to any deferral, contribution, vesting event or Distribution under the Plan.

ARTICLE 7

BENEFITS

     7.1 Normal Retirement Benefit Distribution Election.

          (a) Initial Election. At the time of entering the Plan or, if later, on or before December 31, 2008, Participants shall designate the form of distributions of amounts credited to their Deferral Account upon Normal Retirement, from among the distribution alternatives specified herein. A Participant may only change a distribution election for the Deferral Account in accordance with the change in elections provisions specified in Section 7.1(b).

          (b) Modification of Election. A distribution election with respect to an existing Deferral Account under the Plan may only be changed under the terms and conditions specified by the Committee in compliance with Code Section 409A. After December 31, 2008, except as expressly provided in this Article 7, no acceleration of a distribution is permitted and a subsequent election that delays payment or changes the form of payment shall be permitted if and only if all of the following requirements are met:

               (i) the new election does not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the new election is made; and

               (ii) in the case of payments made on account of Termination of Service (other than by reason of death or Disability) or Change in Control, the new election delays payment for at least five (5) years from the date that payment would otherwise have been made, absent the new election.

     For purposes of application of the above change limitations, installment payments from a Deferral Account shall be treated as a single payment. Changes complying with the requirements of this Section 7.1(b) may be made any number of times with respect to the same Deferral Account but in no event may any change delay the distribution of benefits payable from any Deferral Account beyond the date the Participant attains (or a deceased Participant would have attained) age ninety-two (92). Election changes made pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) shall be made in accordance with rules established by the Committee, and shall comply with all applicable requirements of Code Section 409A and applicable authorities.

     7.2 Normal Retirement Benefit Distribution Alternatives. The Participant shall be entitled to select the form of payment of Distributions from a Deferral Account from among the following alternatives set forth below. Benefits

shall be paid according to the Participant’s distribution elections unless such distribution election is superseded by an alternative distribution event such as death, Disability, or Change in Control, as specified in this Article 7.

          (a) Form of Distribution. The available forms of payment from the Participant’s Deferral Account upon Normal Retirement shall be as follows:

          (i) Lump-Sum. One lump-sum payment.

          (ii) Installment Payments. Monthly installments of principal and interest payable over a period of any number of years up to twenty (20), but in no event ending later than the date on which the Participant shall attain age ninety-two (92). Installment payments shall be calculated on an annual basis but paid during the Plan Year at approximately monthly intervals as may be determined by the Committee, provided that such intervals shall not be less frequent than quarterly, except in the final year of payments when only one installment shall be made in January in such final Plan Year. Installment payments shall be based on the Participant’s Deferral Account balance at the beginning of the payment period and shall be recalculated annually by dividing the Participant’s Deferral Account balance as of the last day of the Plan Year by the number of remaining years in the payment period based on the Participant’s retirement payment election. Deferral Accounts shall continue to be credited during the payment period based on the Participant’s choice among Declared Rates as provided in Article 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an installment payout election shall not be available prior to the date that the Participant shall have qualified for Normal Retirement.

(iii) Small Benefit Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the total balance payable from all of a Participant’s Accounts under this Plan (and any other plans aggregated with this Plan for purposes of Code Section 409A) is less than the applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B) for the calendar year of payment, the Administrator shall have the discretion to pay all of the Participant’s benefits under the Plan (and such other aggregated plans) in the form of a single lump-sum, at any time, subject to compliance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v), as may be further revised or amended.

If no election is made regarding the form of benefits from a particular Account, benefits from that Account shall be paid in a single lump-sum.

          (b) Commencement of Payment of Benefits. The commencement date for payment of benefits from a Participant’s Deferral Account on Normal Retirement shall be upon the Settlement Date next following the Participant’s Normal Retirement.

     7.3 Early Termination Benefit. In the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than death, Disability, or Normal Retirement, the Participant shall receive an Early Termination Benefit equal to the outstanding balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account, credited with notional earnings as provided in Article 6, payable in the form of a single lump-sum distribution on the Settlement Date next following such early Termination of Service. The Participant shall be entitled to no further Benefits under this Plan.

     7.4 Survivor Benefits. In the event of a Participant’s death prior to complete distribution of all of the Participant’s Deferral Account, the Participant’s Beneficiary shall receive a Survivor Benefit equal to the outstanding balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account, credited with notional earnings as provided in Article 6, payable in the form of a single lump-sum Distribution on the last day of the fifteenth (15 ^th ) month commencing after the month in which the Participant’s death occurs, unless the Beneficiary makes a timely election during the first three (3) months following the Participant’s death, which is in compliance with Code Section 409A, to delay commencement of the Deferral Account by a minimum of five (5) years and to receive the benefits in January of a later Plan Year, in the form of a single lump-sum or over a period of up to twenty (20) years.

     7.5 Change of Control or other Benefit. In the event a Change in Control occurs before a Participant’s Deferral Account has been fully distributed, the Participant shall receive an amount equal to the balance of the Deferral Account, credited with notional earnings as provided in Article 6, payable in the form of a single lump-sum distribution on the last day of the fifteenth (15 ^th ) month commencing after the month in which such Change in Control occurs, unless the Participant makes a timely election under Section 7.1(b), during the first three (3) months following such Change in Control, to delay commencement of the Deferral Account by a minimum of five (5) years and to receive the benefits in January of a later Plan Year, in the form of a single lump-sum or over a period of up to twenty (20) years.

     7.6 Unforeseeable Emergency. Upon a finding by the Committee that the Participant has suffered a Unforeseeable Emergency, subject to compliance with Code Section 409A, the Administrator may at the request of the Participant, approve cessation of current deferrals or accelerate distribution of benefits under the Plan in the amount reasonably necessary to alleviate such financial hardship. The amount distributed pursuant to this Section 7.7 with respect to an Unforeseeable Emergency shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy such emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by

insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship).

ARTICLE 8

BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

     Each Participant and Beneficiary shall have the right, at any time, to designate any person or persons as Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to whom payment under this Plan shall be made in the event of death of the Participant or Beneficiary, as the case may be, prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s Benefits due under the Plan. Each Beneficiary designation shall become effective only when filed in writing with the Administrator during the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s lifetime, as the case may be, on a form prescribed by the Administrator.

     The filing of a new Beneficiary designation form by a Participant will cancel and revoke all Beneficiary designations previously filed by such Participant.

If a Participant or Beneficiary, as the case may be, fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided above, or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Participant or Beneficiary, as the case may be, or die prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s Benefits, then the Administrator shall direct the distribution of such Benefits to the estate of the Participant or Beneficiary, as the case may be.

ARTICLE 9

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

     A Committee consisting of three (3) or more members shall be appointed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to administer the Plan, which shall have the exclusive right and full discretion (i) to appoint agents and service providers to act on its behalf, (ii) to interpret the Plan, (iii) to decide any and all matters arising hereunder (including the right to remedy possible ambiguities, inconsistencies, or admissions), (iv) to make, amend and rescind such rules and procedures as it deems necessary for the proper administration of the Plan and (v) to make all other determinations and resolve all questions of fact necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, including determinations regarding eligibility for benefits payable under the Plan.

ARTICLE 10

AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF PLAN

     The Chief Executive Officer, the Board of Directors of the Company, or the Committee (at the direction of the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors) may amend the Plan; provided, however, that (i) no such amendment shall be effective to decrease the Benefits accrued by any Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant (including, but not limited to, the rate of earnings credited on Deferral Accounts); (ii) no such amendment shall revise the substantive provisions of the Plan related to the calculation of Benefits (including, without limitation, the provisions of Article 6), the minimum number of Declared Rates or the manner or timing of payments to be made under the Plan so as to prejudice the rights of any Participant or Beneficiary, except to the extent required by law, and (iii) no amendment shall change the timing or form of Distributions or otherwise violate the provisions of Code Section 409A so as to result in the imposition of excise taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan shall be interpreted in all respects to comply with the provisions of Code Section 409A and the Committee may amend the Plan at anytime as may be necessary to assure such compliance.

     The Company shall not terminate the Plan but may, in its complete and sole discretion, freeze the Plan and allow no further deferrals into this Plan on a prospective basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Participating Subsidiary may accelerate distribution upon termination of the Plan in the event of a Change in Control subject to compliance with all requirements of Code Section 409A.

ARTICLE 11

MAINTENANCE OF ACCOUNTS

     The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, all such books of account, records and other data as may be necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan, and to reflect properly the affairs thereof, and to determine the nature and amount of the interests of the respective Participants in each Deferral Account. Separate accounts or records for the respective Participants’ Deferral Accounts shall be maintained for operational and accounting purposes, but no such account or record shall be considered as creating a lien of any nature whatsoever on or as segregating any of the assets with respect to the Deferral Accounts under this Plan from any other funds or property of the Company.

ARTICLE 12

MISCELLANEOUS

     12.1 Applicable Law. Except to the extent preempted by ERISA and applicable substantive provisions of federal law, this Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely therein.

     12.2 Captions. The captions of the articles, sections, and paragraphs of this Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

     12.3 Limitation. A Participant and the Participant’s Beneficiary shall assume all risks in connection with the performance of any Declared Rate and any decrease in value of the Deferral Accounts, and none of the Company, any of its officers, employees, or directors, the Committee or the Administrator shall be liable or responsible therefor.

     12.4 Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Administrator under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, to the principal office of the Company, directed to the attention of the Administrator with a copy to the Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Company. Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.

     12.5 Limits on Transfer. Other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or legal or judicial process related to dissolution of marriage, no right, title or interest of any kind in the Plan shall be transferable or assignable by a Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary or be subject to alienation, anticipation, encumbrance, garnishment, attachment, levy, execution or other legal or equitable process, nor subject to the debts, contracts, alimony, liabilities or engagements, or torts of any Participant or Participant’s Beneficiary. Any attempt to alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, garnish, attach or take any other action subject to legal or equitable process or encumber or dispose of any interest in the Plan shall be void.

     12.6 Satisfaction of Claims. Payments to any Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full or partial satisfaction of claims against the Company for the compensation or other amounts deferred and relating to the Deferral Account to which the payments relate.

     12.7 Participant Cooperation. Each Participant shall cooperate with the Company by furnishing any and all information requested by the Company in order to facilitate the payment of Benefits hereunder, taking such physical examinations as the Company may deem necessary and taking such other relevant action as may be requested by the Company. If a Participant refuses to so cooperate, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Participant under the Plan, other than payment to such Participant of the cumulative deferrals theretofore made pursuant to this Plan. If a Participant commits suicide during the two (2) year period beginning on the first day on which he participates in the Plan or if the Participant makes any material misstatement of information or nondisclosure of medical history, then no Benefits will be payable hereunder to such Participant of the deferrals theretofore made pursuant to this Plan, provided, that in the Company’s sole discretion, Benefits may be payable in an amount reduced to compensate the Company for any loss, cost, damage or expense suffered or incurred by the Company as a result in any way of any such action, misstatement or nondisclosure.

     12.8 Unfunded Status of Plan; Creation of Rabbi Trust. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan of deferred compensation and Participants shall rely solely on the unsecured promise of the Company for payment hereunder. With respect to any payment not yet made to a Participant under the Plan, nothing contained in the Plan

shall give a Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. The Company has established the Avery Dennison Corporation Directors Compensation Trust (“Rabbi Trust”). The assets of the Rabbi Trust shall be subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors. To the extent any Benefits provided under the Plan are actually paid to a Participant or Beneficiary from the Rabbi Trust, the Company shall have no further obligation with respect thereto, but to the extent not so paid, such Benefits shall remain the obligation of, and shall be paid by, the Company. Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interest, or claims in or to any specific property or assets of the Company, nor shall they be beneficiaries of, or have any rights, claims, or interests in any life insurance policies, annuity contracts, or the proceeds therefrom owned or which may be acquired by the Company (“Policies”). Apart from the Rabbi Trust, such Policies or other assets of the Company shall not be held under any trust for the benefit of Participants, their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, or assigns, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company’s assets and Policies shall be, and shall remain, the general, un-pledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company’s obligations under the Plan shall be merely an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future.

     12.9 Waiver of Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the Benefits due hereunder, wherever such laws may be enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the administration or performance of this Plan; and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) the Company hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the realization of any Benefits to which the Participants hereunder are entitled, but will suffer and permit the realization of all such Benefits as though no such law had been enacted. The provisions of this Section 12.9 are not intended, however, to prevent compliance of the Plan with the provisions of Code Section 409A.

     12.10 Status. The establishment and maintenance of, or allocations and credits to, the Deferral Account of any Participant shall not vest in any Participant any right, title or interest in and to any Plan assets or Benefits except at the time or times and upon the terms and conditions and to the extent expressly set forth in the Plan and in accordance with the terms of the Rabbi Trust.

     12.11 Validity. In the event any provision of this Plan is held invalid, void, or unenforceable, the same shall not affect, in any respect whatsoever, the validity of any other provision of this Plan.

     12.12 Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party of any breach of any provision of the Plan by any other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

     12.13 Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the person or persons may require. As the context may require, the singular may be read as the plural and the plural as the singular.
