Exhibit 10.30
INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
SUPPLEMENTAL EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
(AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2009)
INTRODUCTION
Ingersoll-Rand Company (the Company) established the Ingersoll-Rand Company Employee Savings Plan (the Qualified Savings Plan) effective January 1, 2003 for employees employed by the Company and certain subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company (the Employees), under which benefits do not reflect compensation of Employees in excess of the limitation imposed by Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) or Compensation deferred under the IR Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the Deferral Plan).
The purpose of this amended and restated Ingersoll-Rand Company Supplemental Employee Savings Plan, which was formerly known as the Ingersoll-Rand Company Supplemental Savings and Stock Investment Plan (the Supplemental Savings Plan) is to provide a vehicle under which Employees can be paid benefits which are supplemental to benefits payable under the Qualified Savings Plan with respect to compensation that is not taken into account under the Qualified Savings Plan.
Effective August 1, 2002, the liabilities under the Ingersoll-Rand Company Supplemental Retirement Account Plan (the Supplemental RAP) were merged into this Supplemental Savings Plan. This Supplemental Savings Plan was last amended and restated effective January 1, 2003 with respect to all Employees except those Employees employed by The Torrington Company.
This Supplemental Savings Plan is hereby amended and restated effective January 1, 2009. The provisions of this Supplemental Savings Plan as in effect prior to January 1, 2003 shall continue to apply to Employees of The Torrington Company.
It is intended that this Supplemental Savings Plan be treated as a plan which is unfunded and is maintained by an employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings as they have under the Qualified Savings Plan.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Supplemental Savings Plan to the contrary, the terms of this Supplemental Savings Plan are limited to amounts credited to Employees accounts hereunder (including earnings on such amounts) with respect to compensation earned in years commencing prior to January 1, 2005 that pursuant to the effective date rules of Section 885(d) of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-6(a), are
not subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company has established the Ingersoll-Rand Company Supplemental Savings Plan II to provide similar supplemental benefits that are subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to compensation earned by Employees in years commencing after December 31, 2004.

To the extent permitted by law, the right of any Employee or any beneficiary in any benefit hereunder shall not be subject to attachment or other legal process for the debts of such Employee or beneficiary; nor shall any such benefit be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance. |
