	b)		The Committee shall determine or approve Performance Target Bonus Percentages for each Participant and the Company’s Cost of Capital for the applicable Plan Year.
	c)		The Committee shall establish the Target SVA Improvement and the Bonus Interval for the applicable Plan Year, which standards may be set by the Committee for one or more Plan Years.

	a)		The Committee shall determine the Company’s annual SVA as of the end of the Plan Year and the resulting Actual Improvement.

2. If the Actual Improvement exceeds the Target SVA Improvement, the amount of that excess shall be the “Excess Improvement”;

3. If the Target SVA Improvement exceeds the Actual Improvement, the amount of that excess shall be the “Shortfall”;

John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. Sanfilippo Value Added Plan

c)

If the Actual Improvement is less than the Target SVA Improvement, the Declared Bonus Multiple shall equal the Shortfall (expressed as a negative number) divided by the Bonus Interval, plus one (1).

5. The Bonus Declared for each Participant shall equal the Participant’s Performance Target Bonus, multiplied by the Declared Bonus Multiple, with such amount being credited to the Participant’s Bonus Bank in accordance with Section VI of this Plan;

6. A Participant’s Bonus Declared may be based upon the Declared Bonus Multiple for the Company only, or at the discretion of the Committee, a Participant’s Bonus Declared may be based upon the Declared Bonus Multiple for a particular division, operation, or Subsidiary of the Company, or combination thereof as determined by the Committee.

VI.

Payment of Bonus Paid

A.

Bonus Bank Determination

Each Participant shall have a Bonus Bank to which the Bonus Declared shall be credited. For each applicable Plan Year the Bonus Bank shall be increased by the amount of any positive Bonus Declared or decreased by the amount of any negative Bonus Declared. The bonus payable to a Participant with respect to the applicable Plan Year, if any (“Bonus Paid”), shall be determined as set forth in Section VI(B).

B.

Determination of Bonus Paid

After the end of each applicable Plan Year, after first crediting the Participant’s Bonus Bank with the Participant’s Bonus Declared (which may be positive or negative), the Company shall pay each Participant a Bonus Paid equal to the sum of (i) the Participant’s Bonus Declared, if positive (but not exceeding 120% of the Performance Target Bonus), plus (ii) one-third (¹/₃) of the Participant’s remaining Bonus Bank balance as of the payment date (after reducing for (i)); provided that the Bonus Paid may not exceed the Participant’s Bonus Bank. If the amount in a Participant’s Bonus Bank prior to determining the Bonus Paid is less than the Participant’s Bonus Declared, the entire amount of the Participant’s Bonus Bank shall be paid. No Bonus Paid shall be payable to a Participant unless and until the Participant has a positive balance in his or her Bonus Bank as of an applicable payment date. The Bonus Paid shall be paid by the Company within thirty (30) days following the Committee’s determination of the Declared Bonus Multiple, but in no event earlier than the first day of the Plan Year following the applicable Plan Year and no later than the fifteenth (15^th) day of the third month following the end of the applicable Plan Year. The Bonus Paid determined under this subsection shall not be earned and vested by the Participant until such time as the date on which it is paid; provided, however, that in the event that a Participant’s prior Plan Year Bonus Paid has not yet been paid at the time such

John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. Sanfilippo Value Added Plan

Participant’s award is forfeited pursuant to the terms of this Plan, such forfeited amounts shall be distributed to other Participant(s) on a pro rata basis, or distributed to other Participant(s) as otherwise determined by the Committee.

C.

Payment Upon Termination of Employment

1. In General. Except as specified below, and unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event a Participant’s employment is terminated for any reason, including by the Company for Cause or by the Participant for any reason, or the Participant becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan, (i) the Participant shall not earn, and Participant’s Bonus Bank shall not be credited with, any Bonus Declared for the Plan Year in which the termination occurs, and (ii) in the event that the prior Plan Year Bonus Paid has not yet been paid, the Participant shall not earn, and Participant’s Bonus Bank shall not be credited with, any Bonus Declared for such prior Plan Year; provided, however, that any amounts forfeited pursuant to this VI(C)(1)(ii) shall be distributed to other Participant(s) on a pro rata basis, or distributed to other Participant(s) as otherwise determined by the Committee. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the full amount of the Participant’s Bonus Bank shall be forfeited in its entirety as of the termination date and the Participant shall have no rights or interests in the Plan thereafter. Any payments made under this Section VI(C)(1) at the discretion of the Committee shall be within the time set forth in Section VI(B) and the Participant shall have no rights or interests in the Plan thereafter.

2. Upon Death, Disability, Retirement, or Termination by the Company Other than for Cause. In the event of a Participant’s Death, Disability, Retirement or termination by the Company other than for Cause:

(i) To the extent not previously paid, any Bonus Paid with respect to the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year in which termination occurs shall be considered vested and earned in accordance with the terms of Section VI(B) and shall be paid by the Company to the former Participant, or in the event of his or her death, to his or her estate or designated beneficiary, within the time set forth in Section VI(B) and the Participant shall have no rights or interests in the Plan thereafter.

(ii) The Participant’s Bonus Bank shall be credited as of the end of the Plan Year in which the termination occurs (the “Termination Year”), with a Bonus Declared determined in accordance with Section VI(B) of the Plan, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the

John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. Sanfilippo Value Added Plan

total number of days during the Termination Year in which the Participant was employed by the Company, and the denominator of which shall be 365. Thereafter, following the payment, if any, of the Bonus Paid for the Termination Year, the full amount of the Participant’s Bonus Bank (if a positive balance then exists) shall be considered vested and earned as of the termination date and shall be paid by the Company to the former Participant, or in the event of his or her death, to his or her estate or designated beneficiary, in one lump sum within the time set forth in Section VI(B) above and the Participant shall have no rights or interests in the Plan thereafter.

3. Condition of Payments. At the discretion of the Committee, any payment hereunder that is due to termination of employment by the Company other than for Cause or by the Participant may be subject to a requirement that the Participant execute a release of claims (including claims relating to age discrimination) against the Company and its Subsidiaries and related persons at the time and in the form determined by the Company from time to time.

VIII.		Amendment and Termination of the Plan
		The Board may, from time to time, amend the Plan in any respect, or may discontinue or terminate the Plan at any time, provided, however, that:

	A.		Impact on Existing Rights
			No amendment, discontinuance or termination of the Plan shall alter or otherwise affect the amount credited to a Participant’s Bonus Bank or affect the amount of a Bonus Declared which may be earned prior to the date of termination;
	B.		Impact on SVA Performance Measurement System
			No amendment shall be made which would replace the SVA performance measurement system for purposes of determining the Bonus Declared under the Plan during a Plan Year for such Plan Year, provided that the Board or Committee shall have the authority to adjust and establish Target SVA Improvement, Performance Target Bonus Percentages, and other criteria utilized in the SVA performance measurement system;
	C.		Consequence of Full Termination of Plan
			In the event of the termination of this Plan, the full amount, if any, then credited to a Participant’s Bonus Bank shall be paid in full within sixty (60) days following the effective date of termination, but in no event later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following the Plan Year in which the Plan is terminated. If the Plan is terminated prior to the end of a Plan Year, the Bonus Declared for that Plan Year shall be determined and credited to a Participant’s Bonus Bank as set forth in Section VI of the Plan, assuming that Target SVA Improvement for that Plan Year had been achieved, then pro-rated for the actual number of days in the Plan Year before the Plan was terminated; and
	D.		Consequence of Change in Control
			In the event of a Change in Control, the Bonus Declared for that Plan Year shall be determined and credited to a Participant’s Bonus Bank as set forth in Section VI of the Plan, assuming that Target SVA Improvement for that Plan Year had been achieved, then pro-rated for the actual number of days in the Plan Year before the Change in Control, except that the Bonus Paid shall equal one hundred percent (100%) of the Participant’s

	E.		Section 409A
			Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan:

1. To the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable pursuant to this Plan during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s termination of employment shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Participant’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A; and

2. A Participant shall not be entitled to any payments resulting from or arising due to a “termination of employment”, “termination” or “retirement” (or other similar term having a similar import) unless (and until) such Participant has “separated from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

3. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee would subject any Participant to liability for interest or additional taxes under Section 409A, it will be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee. It is intended that the Plan will be exempt from Section 409A (or if subject to Section 409A, compliant with Section 409A), and the Plan shall be interpreted and construed on a basis consistent with such intent. The Plan may be amended in any respect deemed necessary (including retroactively) by the Board in order to preserve exemption from (or compliance with) Section 409A. The preceding shall not be construed as a guarantee of any particular tax effect for Plan payments. A Participant is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on such person in connection with any payments to such person under the Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and the Company (or any affiliate or subsidiary) shall have no obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold a Participant harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
