Deferral Elections, Generally.

An Eligible Employee may make an initial election to defer Compensation by submitting a Compensation Deferral Agreement during the Enrollment Period established by the Committee and in the manner specified by the Committee, but in any event, in accordance with Section 4.2.

A Compensation Deferral Agreement that is not timely filed (as described in 4.1(a)) with respect to a service period or component of Compensation, or that is submitted by a Participant who Separates from Service prior to the latest date such agreement would become irrevocable under Section 409A of the Code, shall be null and void and shall not take effect with respect to such item of Compensation. The Committee may modify or revoke any Compensation Deferral Agreement prior to the date the election becomes irrevocable under the rules of Section 4.2.

The Committee may permit different deferral amounts in a Compensation Deferral Agreement for each component of Compensation and may specify in the enrollment materials a minimum or maximum deferral amount for each such component.

Deferrals of cash Compensation shall be calculated with respect to the gross cash Compensation payable to the Participant prior to any deductions or withholdings, but shall be reduced by the Committee as necessary so as not to exceed 100% of the cash Compensation of the Participant remaining after deduction of all required income and employment taxes, required employee benefit deductions, deferrals to 401(k) plans and other deductions required by law. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may disregard any changes to payroll withholdings that affect the amount of Compensation being deferred to the Plan.

The Eligible Employee shall specify on their Compensation Deferral Agreement the amount of Deferrals and whether to allocate Deferrals to the Primary Separation Account or to one or more Flex Accounts. If no designation is made, Deferrals shall be allocated to the Primary Separation Account.

Initial Eligibility. As described in Section 3.1(c), the Committee may permit certain newly-hired Eligible Employees to defer certain Compensation earned during the Plan Year that includes their date of hire. In addition, as described in Section 3.1(d), the Committee may permit Eligible Employees hired after the end of the last Enrollment Period applicable to Compensation earned during a Plan Year to defer certain Compensation earned during that Plan Year. In either case, the Compensation Deferral Agreement must be filed and becomes irrevocable on the last day of the applicable Enrollment Period described in Section 3.1(c), unless the Compensation Deferral Agreement specifies that it is irrevocable on an earlier date.

Prior Year Election. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.2, the Committee may permit an Eligible Employee to defer Compensation by filing a Compensation Deferral Agreement during an Enrollment Period, the last day of which shall be no later than December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the Compensation to be deferred is earned. A Compensation Deferral Agreement filed under this paragraph shall become irrevocable with respect to such Compensation on the latest date permitted by the Committee, which shall be no later than December 31.

Performance-Based Compensation. The Committee may permit an Eligible Employee to defer Compensation which qualifies as Performance-Based Compensation by filing a Compensation Deferral Agreement during an Enrollment Period, the last day of which shall be no later than the date that is six months before the end of the applicable performance period, provided that:

the Participant performs services continuously from the later of the beginning of the performance period or the date the performance criteria are established through the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement is submitted; and

the Compensation is not readily ascertainable as of the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement is filed.

Certain Forfeitable Rights. With respect to a legally binding right to a payment in a subsequent year that is subject to a forfeiture condition requiring the Participant’s continued services for a period of at least 12 months from the date the Participant obtains the legally binding right, the Committee may permit an Eligible Employee to defer such Compensation by filing a Compensation Deferral Agreement on or before the 30^th day after the legally binding right to the Compensation accrues, provided that the Compensation Deferral Agreement is submitted at least 12 months in advance of the earliest date on which the forfeiture condition could lapse. The Compensation Deferral Agreement described in this paragraph becomes irrevocable not later than such 30^th day. If the forfeiture condition applicable to the payment lapses before the end of such 12-month period as a result of the Participant’s death or disability (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(4)) or upon a change in control (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)), the Compensation Deferral Agreement will be void unless it would be considered timely under another rule described in this Section.

Allocation of Deferrals. A Compensation Deferral Agreement may allocate Deferrals to the Primary Separation Account or to one or more Flex Accounts. The Committee may, in its discretion, establish in a written communication during enrollment a minimum deferral period for the establishment of a Specified Date Account (for example, the second Plan Year following the year Compensation is first allocated to such Accounts).

Deductions from Pay. The Committee has the authority to determine the payroll practices under which any component of Compensation subject to a Compensation Deferral Agreement will be deducted from a Participant’s Compensation.

Vesting. Participant Deferrals of cash Compensation shall be 100% vested at all times.

Cancellation of Deferrals. The Committee in its sole discretion may cancel a Participant’s Deferrals: (i) upon written request of the Participant, for the balance of the Plan Year in which an Unforeseeable Emergency described in Section 6.5 occurs, and (ii) during periods in which the Participant is unable to perform the duties of their position or any substantially similar position due to a mental or physical impairment that can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of at least six months, provided cancellation occurs by the later of the end of the taxable year of the Participant or the 15^th day of the third month following the date the Participant incurs the disability (as defined in this paragraph (ii)).

Discretionary Company Contributions. The Company may, from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion, credit discretionary Company Contributions in the form of matching, profit sharing or other contributions to any Participant in any amount determined by the Company. Discretionary Company Contributions are credited at the sole discretion of the Company and the fact that a discretionary Company Contribution is credited to a Participant at any particular time shall not obligate any Participating Employer to continue to make any such Company Contributions at any other time. Such discretionary Company Contributions (other than Restoration Matching Contributions, as described below) shall be memorialized in a writing signed by a member of the Committee. Such writing must include the following information: (i) the name of the Participant, (ii) the amount that is being credited, (iii) the Account to which such amount shall be credited, (iv) the Payment Schedule, and (v) any vesting conditions that may apply to such credited amount.

Vesting. Unless specified otherwise by the Committee in accordance with Section 5.1, Company Contributions are always 100% vested.

Death. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, upon the death of the Participant (regardless of whether such Participant is an Employee at the time of death), all remaining vested Account Balances shall be paid to their Beneficiary in a single lump sum no later than December 31 of the calendar year following the year of the Participant’s death.

Designation of Beneficiary in General. The Participant shall designate a Beneficiary in the manner and on such terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe. No such designation shall become effective unless filed with the Committee during the Participant’s lifetime. A Participant may from time to time

No Beneficiary. If a designated Beneficiary does not survive the Participant, or if there is no valid Beneficiary designation, amounts payable under the Plan upon the death of the Participant shall be paid to (i) the Participant’s beneficiary under the McDonald’s Corporation Supplemental Profit Sharing and Savings Plan, or, if no such beneficiary is on file, (ii) then to the duly appointed and currently acting personal representative of the Participant’s estate.

Unforeseeable Emergency. A Participant who experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency may submit a written request to the Committee to cease Deferrals to the Plan for the remainder of the current Plan Year. If the emergency need cannot be relieved by cessation of Deferrals to the Plan, the Committee may approve an emergency payment from the Participant’s vested Accounts not to exceed the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the need, taking into account the additional compensation that is available to the Participant as the result of cancellation of deferrals to the Plan, including amounts necessary to pay any taxes or penalties that the Participant reasonably anticipates will result from the payment. The amount of the emergency payment shall be subtracted pro-rata from all of the Participant’s Accounts. Emergency payments shall be paid in a single lump sum within the 90-day period following the date the payment is approved by the Committee. The Committee may specify that Deferrals will be distributed before any Company Contributions. The Committee has sole discretionary authority to determine whether an Unforeseeable Emergency exists and the amount necessary to satisfy the need, if any.

Cash-Out of Small Balances. Notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, if the balance in a Participant’s Accounts established under the Plan (including under the Prior Plan Document) as of the Participant’s Separation from Service is less than $50,000, then such Participant’s Accounts shall be paid in a single lump sum in the seventh month following the Participant’s Separation from Service. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, the Committee may at any time and without regard to whether a payment event has occurred, direct in writing an immediate lump sum payment of the Participant’s Accounts if the balance of such Accounts, combined with any other amounts required to be treated as deferred under a single plan pursuant to Code Section 409A, does not exceed the applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B), provided any other such aggregated amounts are also distributed in a lump sum at the same time.

Acceleration of or Delay in Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to accelerate the time or form of payment of an Account, provided such acceleration is permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4). The Committee may also, in its sole and absolute discretion, delay the time for payment of an Account, to the extent permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7).

Rules Applicable to Installment Payments. If a Payment Schedule specifies installment payments, payments will be made beginning as of the payment commencement date for such installments and shall continue to be made on the first day of each subsequent payment period until the number of installment payments specified in the Payment Schedule has been paid. The first day with respect to each payment commencement date under Section 6.2 or 6.3 is (i) for annual payments, each anniversary of the payment commencement date, (ii) for quarterly payments, the first day of every third calendar month and (iii) for monthly payments, the first day of each calendar month. The amount of each installment payment shall be determined by dividing (a) by (b), where (a) equals the Account Balance as of the Valuation Date and (b) equals the remaining number of installment payments. For purposes of Section 6.9, installment payments will be treated as a single payment. If an Account is payable in installments, the Account will continue to be credited with Earnings in accordance with Article VII hereof until the Account is completely distributed.

Modifications to Payment Schedules. A Participant may modify the Payment Schedule elected by him or her with respect to an Account, consistent with the permissible Payment Schedules available under the Plan for the applicable payment event, provided such modification complies with the requirements of this Section 6.9.

Time of Election. The modification election must be submitted to the Committee not less than 12 months prior to the date payments would have commenced under the Payment Schedule in effect prior to modification (the “Prior Election”).

Date of Payment under Modified Payment Schedule. The date payments are to commence under the modified Payment Schedule generally must be no earlier than five years after the date payment would have commenced under the Prior Election, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b). Under no circumstances may a modification election result in an acceleration of payments in violation of Code Section 409A.

Irrevocability; Effective Date. A modification election is irrevocable when filed and becomes effective 12 months after the filing date.

Effect on Accounts. An election to modify a Payment Schedule is specific to the Account or payment event to which it applies, and shall not be construed to affect the Payment Schedules or payment events of any other Accounts.

Payments to Rehired Participants. If a Participant has a bona fide Separation from Service and thereafter resumes service with the Company or any Affiliate (whether as an employee or independent contractor), the portion of the Participant’s Account balance attributable to amounts deferred from compensation earned prior to such Separation from Service (as adjusted for net investment earnings, gains and losses) shall be distributed to the Participant based on such Separation from Service without regard to the Participant’s resumption of service, and any amounts deferred from compensation earned after the Participant’s resumption of service (as adjusted for net investment earnings, gains and

Domestic Relations Orders. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, if any portion of a Participant’s Account is assigned to a person other than the Participant pursuant to a judgment, decree, order (including approval of a property settlement agreement) which (a) relates to the provision of child support, alimony payments, or marital property rights to the Participant’s spouse, child or other dependent (an “Alternate Payee”), and (b) is made pursuant to the domestic relations law (including a community property law) of any state or territory (a “Domestic Relations Order”), the Committee shall direct the immediate distribution to the Alternate Payee of the portion, if any, of each such Account of the Participant that has been assigned to such Alternate Payee. Payments shall be made pro-rata from all Participant’s Accounts and in accordance with such additional procedures and requirements as the Committee shall specify.

Valuation. Deferrals shall be credited to appropriate Accounts on the date such Compensation would have been paid to the Participant absent the Compensation Deferral Agreement. Valuation of Accounts shall be performed under procedures approved by the Committee.

Earnings Credit. Each Account will be credited with Earnings on each Business Day, based upon the Participant’s deemed investment allocation among the menu of investment options selected in advance by the Committee, in accordance with the provisions of this Article VII (“investment allocation”).

Investment Options. Deemed investment options will be determined by the Committee. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall be permitted to add or remove deemed investment options from the Plan menu from time to time, provided that any such additions or removals of deemed investment options shall not be effective with respect to any period prior to the effective date of such change.

No Actual Investment. A Participant’s investment allocation constitutes a deemed, not actual, investment among the investment options comprising the investment menu. At no time shall a Participant have any real or beneficial ownership in any investment option included in the investment menu, nor shall the Participating Employer or any trustee acting on its behalf have any obligation to purchase actual securities as a result of a Participant’s investment allocation. A Participant’s deemed investment allocation shall be used solely for purposes of adjusting the hypothetical value of a Participant’s Account Balances.

Unallocated Deferrals and Accounts. If the Participant fails to make a deemed investment allocation with respect to an Account, such Account shall be deemed invested in an investment option, the primary objective of which is the preservation of capital, as determined by the Committee.

Valuations Final After 140 Days.

Claims for benefits shall be filed with the Committee and resolved in accordance with the claims procedures in Article XI.

Administration Upon Change in Control.

For purposes of this Section 8.2, a “change in control” means a change in control within the meaning of the rabbi trust agreement associated with the Plan or if no such definition is provided, the term shall have the meaning under Code Section 409A.

Withholding. The Participating Employer shall have the right to withhold from any payment due under the Plan (or with respect to any amounts credited to the Plan) any amounts it reasonably determines to be required by law to be withheld in respect of such payment (or credit). Withholdings with respect to amounts credited to the Plan shall be deducted from Compensation that has not been deferred to the Plan.

Indemnification. The Participating Employers shall indemnify and hold harmless each employee, officer, director, agent or organization, to whom or to which are delegated duties, responsibilities, and authority under the Plan or otherwise with respect to administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, the Committee, its delegees and its agents, against all claims, liabilities, fines and penalties, and all expenses reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him or it (including but not limited to reasonable attorney fees) which arise as a result of his or its actions or failure to act in connection with the operation and administration of the Plan to the extent lawfully allowable and to the extent that such claim, liability, fine, penalty, or expense is not paid for by liability insurance purchased or paid for by the Participating Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participating Employer shall not indemnify any person or organization if his or its actions or failure to act are due to gross negligence or willful misconduct or for any such amount incurred through any settlement or compromise of any action unless the Participating Employer consents in writing to such settlement or compromise.

Actions to Amend or Terminate. The Company, by action taken by the Compensation Committee of its Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) or such other person or committee appointed by the Compensation Committee, reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time and for any reason, provided that any such amendment shall not reduce the vested Account Balances of any Participant accrued as of the date of any such amendment or restatement (as if the Participant had incurred a voluntary Separation from Service on such date). No amendment is needed to revise the list of Participating Employers set forth on Schedule A attached hereto.

Implementation of Termination. In the event of Plan termination, Account balances shall be paid in the form of a single lump sum to the maximum extent permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix).

Accounts Taxable Under Code Section 409A.

The Committee, pursuant to its authority to interpret the Plan, may sever from the Plan or any Compensation Deferral Agreement any provision or exercise of a right that otherwise would result any amount of compensation deferred hereunder being required to be included in any person’s gross income under Section 409A(a)(1)(A) of the Code or otherwise subject to the interest or additional tax described in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.

Lump Sum Upon a Change of Control of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, immediately following a Change of Control of the Company, each Participant and each beneficiary of a deceased Participant (without regard to whether such Participant has had a Separation from Service or is then receiving installments payments) shall receive an immediate lump sum distribution of their entire remaining Account balance.

Withdrawal from the Plan by Subsidiary. Any Participating Employer shall have the right, at any time, upon the approval of and under such conditions as may be provided by the Compensation Committee, to withdraw from the Plan by delivering to the Committee written notice of its election to withdraw, upon which it shall be considered a “Withdrawing Subsidiary.” Upon receipt of such notice, the Withdrawing Subsidiary shall assume sole responsibility for making payments to its Participants and full responsibility for the design and administration of the Plan, as it applies to its Employees and former Employees. Such responsibility shall include, without limitation, (i) adopting a plan document naming the Withdrawing Subsidiary as the sponsor that is a “clone” of this Plan and the Prior Plan Documents (ii) providing payroll services for payment of the Account of each Participant who is currently employed by the Withdrawing Subsidiary on the effective date of the Withdrawing Subsidiary’s withdrawal from the Plan, (iii) to the extent required by the Committee, providing payroll services for payment of the Account of each Participant who had a Separation from Service prior to the effective date of the Withdrawing Subsidiary’s withdrawal from the Plan and whose last period of

Partial Termination of the Plan Upon a Subsidiary Change of Control Event. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if a Participating Employer undergoes a Subsidiary Change of Control Event, as defined below (a “Disaffiliated Subsidiary”), the Company, in its sole discretion, may terminate the portion of the Plan (a “Partial Termination”) covering those Participants (“Disaffiliated Participants”) who immediately following the occurrence of such Subsidiary Change of Control Event are employed by, or are otherwise performing services for, such Disaffiliated Subsidiary. Any such Partial Termination of the Plan shall be done in accordance with and subject to the requirements imposed under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(B), including the following:

The Company may amend the Plan at any time during the period commencing 30 days prior and ending 12 months after the occurrence of a Subsidiary Change of Control Event to implement a Partial Termination with respect to such Subsidiary Change of Control Event.

If a Partial Termination amendment is timely adopted, each Disaffiliated Participant will receive, within the 12 month period following the date the Partial Termination amendment is adopted, a lump sum distribution of their entire Account balance under the Plan and their entire account balance under all other Company-sponsored deferred compensation plans that together with the Plan are required to be treated as a single “plan” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(c)(2) immediately following the Subsidiary Change of Control Event.

A Participating Employer shall undergo a “Subsidiary Change of Control Event” if (i) it ceases to be an Affiliate of the Company as a result of a stock or asset sale or similar transaction and (ii) such sale or other transaction constitutes a “change in the ownership” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)) of such Participating Employer, a “change in effective control” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi)(1)) of such Participating Employer, or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of

General Assets. Obligations established under the terms of the Plan may be satisfied from the general funds of the Participating Employers, or a trust described in this Article X. No Participant, spouse or Beneficiary shall have any right, title or interest whatever in assets of the Participating Employers. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Participating Employers and any Employee, spouse, or Beneficiary. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments hereunder, such rights are no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Participating Employer.

Rabbi Trust. A Participating Employer may, in its sole discretion, establish a grantor trust, commonly known as a rabbi trust, as a vehicle for accumulating assets to pay benefits under the Plan. Payments under the Plan may be paid from the general assets of the Participating Employer or from the assets of any such rabbi trust. Payment from any such source shall reduce the obligation owed to the Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan.

Filing a Claim.

Any individual (for purposes of this Section called a “Claimant”) may submit his claim for benefits or any other complaint or grievance with respect to administration of the Plan (a “Claim”) to the Committee or such other person designated by the Committee (the “Claims Administrator”) in writing in such form as is permitted by the Committee. A Claimant shall have no right to seek review of a denial of benefits, or to bring any action in any court to enforce a Claim, prior to his filing a claim for benefits and exhausting his rights to review in accordance with this Section. Any Claim that is based, in whole or in part, on the failure of the Committee (or its agents or delegates) to follow proper directions given by a Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, the failure to follow an investment direction or a 401(k) Election) must be filed with the Claims Administrator no later than one hundred forty (140) days after the date on which such direction was given (or

If a Claim is denied, in whole or in part, the Claimant shall have the right to request that the Committee review the denial, provided that he files a written request for review with the Committee within sixty (60) days after the date on which he received written notification of the denial. A Claimant (or his duly authorized representative) may review pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing to the Committee. A Claimant must address any material issue relevant to his Claim in connection with his request for review. If a Claimant fails to raise or address any material issue relevant to his Claim in connection with his request for review, the Claimant shall have no right to later reopen or resubmit such Claim based on such issue. Within sixty (60) days after a request for review is received, the review shall be made and the Claimant shall be advised in writing of the decision on review, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the review, in which case the Claimant shall, within such initial sixty (60) day period, be given a written notification specifying the reasons for the extension and when such review shall be completed (provided that such review shall be completed within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the date on which the request for review was filed). The decision on review shall be forwarded to the Claimant in writing and shall include specific reasons for the decision and references to Plan provisions upon which the decision is based. A decision on review shall be final and binding on all persons for all purposes.

Claims Appeals Upon Change in Control. Upon a change in control, the Claims Administrator, as constituted immediately prior to such change in control, shall continue to act as the Claims Administrator. The Company may not remove any member of the

Legal Action. If a Claimant shall fail to file a request for review in accordance with the procedures herein outlined, such Claimant shall have no rights to review and shall have no right to bring action in any court, and the denial of the Claim shall become final and binding on all persons for all purposes. Moreover, no Claimant shall have any right to bring any action in court more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the Committee renders a final determination on review. Any litigation or proceeding regarding or related to the Plan shall be filed and heard in the federal district court in Chicago, Illinois or in state court in Cook County, Illinois.

Discretion of Claims Administrator. All interpretations, determinations and decisions of the Claims Administrator with respect to any claim shall be made in its sole discretion, and shall be final and conclusive.

Assignment. No interest of any Participant, spouse or Beneficiary under this Plan and no benefit payable hereunder shall be assigned as security for a loan, and any such purported assignment shall be null, void and of no effect, nor shall any such interest or any such benefit be subject in any manner, either voluntarily or involuntarily, to anticipation, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance by or through any Participant, spouse or Beneficiary, provided, however, that this Section shall not be interpreted to invalidate any specific provision of the Plan, such as the right to make applicable withholding as described in Section 8.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, however, the

No Legal or Equitable Rights or Interest. No Participant or other person shall have any legal or equitable rights or interest in this Plan that are not expressly granted in this Plan. Participation in this Plan does not give any person any right to be retained in the service of the Participating Employer. The right and power of a Participating Employer to dismiss or discharge an Employee is expressly reserved. The Participating Employers make no representations or warranties as to the tax consequences to a Participant or a Participant’s beneficiaries resulting from a deferral of income pursuant to the Plan.

No Employment Contract. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to constitute a contract of employment between an Employee and a Participating Employer or to give any employee or Participant the right to be retained in a Participating Employer’s service or to any benefits not specifically provided by the Plan.

Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be delivered to the Committee under this Plan shall be delivered in writing, in person, or through such electronic means as is established by the Committee. 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. Written transmission shall be sent by certified mail to:

Headings. The headings of Sections are included solely for convenience of reference, and if there is any conflict between such headings and the text of this Plan, the text shall control.

Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof and the Committee may elect in its sole discretion to construe such invalid or unenforceable provisions in a manner that conforms to applicable law or as if such provisions, to the extent invalid or unenforceable, had not been included.

Forfeitures and Unclaimed Amounts. Unclaimed amounts shall consist of the amount of the Account of a Participant that cannot be distributed because of the Committee’s inability, after a reasonable search, to locate a Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, as applicable, within a period of two years after the Payment Date upon which the payment of benefits becomes due. Unclaimed amounts shall be forfeited at the end of such two-year period. These forfeitures will reduce the obligations of the Company under the Plan. After an unclaimed amount has been forfeited, the Participant or beneficiary, as applicable, shall have no further right to the Participant’s Account.

Facility of Payment to a Minor. If a distribution is to be made to a minor, or to a person who is otherwise incompetent, then the Committee may, in its discretion, make such distribution: (i) to the legal guardian, or if none, to a parent of a minor payee with whom the payee maintains their residence, or (ii) to the conservator or committee or, if none, to the person having custody of an incompetent payee. Any such distribution shall fully discharge the Committee, the Company, and the Plan from further liability on account thereof.

Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by ERISA, the laws of the State of Illinois shall govern the construction and administration of the Plan.

Compliance With Tax Code and ERISA; No Guarantee. This Plan is intended to be administered in compliance with all applicable laws, including the Code, ERISA, and any similar state or local laws, and each provision of the Plan is intended to be interpreted consistent with applicable law, in a manner so as to provide the intended deferral of income inclusion and taxation with respect to amounts deferred hereunder. However, for example, although intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code, this Plan shall not constitute a guarantee to any Participant, Beneficiary, or other person that the Plan in form or in operation will result in the deferral of federal or state income tax liabilities or that the Participant, Beneficiary, or any other person will not be subject to the gross income inclusion or interest and additional taxes described within Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code or any similar state, local, or otherwise applicable law. No Employer shall have any legal obligation to a Participant or any other individual with respect to any tax or other liability imposed with respect to any deferral or benefit under the Plan under any applicable law, including Section 409A of the Code and any similar state or local law.

Action by the Company. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, any action required of or permitted by the Company under the Plan shall be by resolution of the Compensation Committee or by action of any member of the Compensation Committee or other person(s) authorized by resolution of the Compensation Committee.

Section 16. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Compensation Committee (or its delegates) may impose such restrictions, rules and regulations on the terms and conditions of participation in the Plan by any Participant who has been deemed by the Board of Directors of the Company to be subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as the Compensation Committee (or its delegates) may determine to be necessary or appropriate. Any deemed investment election made

Electronic Elections. Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may in its discretion may make disclosure or give information to Participants and beneficiaries and permit Participants or their beneficiaries to make electronic elections in lieu of written disclosure, information or elections provided in the Plan. In making such a determination, the Committee shall consider the availability of electronic disclosure of information and elections to Participants and beneficiaries, the protection of the rights of Participants and their beneficiaries, the appropriateness of the standards for authentication of identity and other security considerations involved in the electronic election system and any guidance issued by any relevant governmental authorities.
