The applicable percentage for any Plan Year shall be determined in accordance with the following schedule:

5

For purposes of this Section 4.1, a Participant’s age shall be determined at the end of each Plan Year to which the particular Retirement Contribution relates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) for the first four Plan Years that a Participant is an Eligible Employee, including Plan Years under the Executive Plan, but only with respect to Eligible Employees who were eligible to participate in the Plan on January 1, 2009, the Retirement Contribution shall be limited to 10% of Compensation irrespective of the Participant’s age, and (ii) in the case of a Participant who ceases to be an Eligible Employee during a Plan Year by reason of death or a Disability, a pro rata portion of the Retirement Contribution shall be credited based on the number of months during the Plan Year in which the Eligible Employee was employed by the Employer prior to death or Disability.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all periods after March 8, 2009, but prior to the Effective Date, the Board, by resolution duly adopted prior to applicable period, may condition the making of the Retirement Contribution for the applicable period upon the Company’s achievement of certain specified objectives; provided, however, that any such resolution and the resulting conditionality shall be of no force and effect hereunder following a change in control of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, effective for Plan Years commencing on or after the Effective Date, no further Retirement Contributions shall be credited under the Plan with respect to Plan Years that commence on or after the Effective Date.

ARTICLE V
Vesting

ARTICLE VI

6.1                               Separation From Service.  Each Participant’s Plan Account shall be distributed to him on account of his Separation from Service.  Such distribution shall be paid in a single lump sum in cash to the Participant within sixty (60) days following the six month anniversary of his Separation Date.  The lump sum payment shall be equal to the value of such Plan Account as of the last business day immediately preceding the date of payment.

6.2                               Death.

(a)                                 In the event of a Participant’s death prior to his or her Separation From Service, distribution of the Participant’s Plan Account shall be made to the Participant’s beneficiary in a lump sum within sixty (60) days following the date of the Participant’s death.  The amount of any lump sum benefit payable in accordance with this subsection shall equal the value of the Participant’s Plan Account as of the last business day immediately preceding the date on which such benefit is paid.

(b)                                 In the event a Participant dies after the Participant’s Separation From Service, and prior to the full distribution of the amounts credited to the Participant’s Plan Account, the Participant’s Plan Account shall be paid to the Participant’s beneficiary at such times and in such amounts as they would have been paid to the Participant had the Participant survived.

6.3                               Beneficiary Designation.  Each Participant shall have the right to designate one or more beneficiaries and contingent beneficiaries to receive any vested amount in such individual’s Plan Account at the time of his or her death by filing a written designation with the Plan Administrator on the form prescribed by it for such purpose.  Participants may thereafter designate different beneficiaries at any time by filing a new written designation.  The consent of the beneficiary is not required for any revocation or change of election of beneficiary.  Any written designation shall become effective only upon its receipt by the Plan Administrator.  If all of the designated beneficiaries should die on or before the commencement of distribution of death benefits and the Participant fails to make a new designation, his or her beneficiary shall be determined pursuant to Section 6.4.  If the beneficiary (or last contingent beneficiary) determined pursuant to this Section 6.3 or the initial beneficiary determined pursuant to Section 6.4 dies before all payments are made, then the balance of the payments shall be made to such beneficiary’s estate unless such beneficiary (or last contingent beneficiary) designates a second-level beneficiary by filing a written designation with the Administrator on the form prescribed by it for such purpose, in which case such second-level beneficiary shall be treated as a beneficiary hereunder.

6.4                               Beneficiary List.  If a Participant omits or fails to designate a beneficiary or if no designated beneficiary survives such individual, the vested amount in such individual’s Plan Account at the time of his or her death shall be paid to the beneficiary determined from the following priority list: (a) surviving spouse, or if none, then (b) the Participant’s estate.

10.1                        Claim.  A Participant or his or her beneficiary or authorized representative (each one being hereinafter referred to as a “Claimant”) who expects a benefit under the Plan which he has not received may file a formal claim for benefits under the Plan with the Administrator.  The Administrator shall review the claim and render a determination relating to the claim based on this Plan document (including the Administrator’s power and authority to interpret and construe the Plan and to make rules relating to the administration of the Plan) and consistent with prior determinations rendered with respect to similarly situated claims.  The Administrator shall notify the Claimant within ninety (90) days of the receipt of the claim of the Administrator’s determination relating to the claim, unless the Administrator determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing a claim, in which case the Administrator shall notify the Claimant of the extension within ninety (90) days of receipt of the claim, specifying the special circumstances requiring an extension and the date by which it expects to render a determination on the claim, which determination must be rendered and notice given to the Claimant no later than the 180th day following the receipt of the claim.  If an extension is required because the Claimant failed to submit the information necessary to decide a claim, the time period for making a benefit determination set forth in the prior sentence shall be tolled from the date on which the notification of the extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the Claimant responds to the request for additional information.  The determination notice shall be in writing, sent by regular mail to the address specified by the

10

Claimant or if none is specified to the Claimant’s last known address, and must contain the following information:

(a)                                 The specific reasons for a determination adverse to the Claimant, if applicable;

(b)                                 The specific reference to the pertinent Plan provision(s) on which the determination is based;

(c)                                  If applicable, a description of any additional information or material necessary to perfect the claim, and an explanation of why such information or material is necessary; and

(d)                                 An explanation of the claims review procedure and the time limitations of the review procedure applicable thereto, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following an appeal of any adverse benefit determination.

For purposes of this Article X, claims, notifications and determinations shall be deemed to be received when actually received and parties shall be deemed to be notified and a notification shall be deemed to be sent or submitted on the date that such notification is postmarked or actually delivered by courier if not mailed.

10.2                        Appeal Procedure.  A Claimant is entitled to request an appeal of any adverse determination of his or her claim by the Administrator.  The request for appeal must be submitted in writing within 60 days of the receipt by the Claimant of the notification of an adverse claim determination.  Absent a request for appeal within the 60-day period, the determination of the Administrator regarding the claim will be deemed to be final and conclusive.  During the appeal process, the Claimant shall have a reasonable opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim and shall be entitled, free of charge, to reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim.  The Administrator shall review the appeal of the initial claim determination (including all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant, regardless of whether such information was submitted with the original claim) and render a final determination.

10.3                        Final Determination.  Within sixty (60) days following receipt by the Administrator of the Claimant’s request for appeal, the Administrator shall render a final determination relating to the claim, unless the Administrator determines that special circumstances (such as the need to hold a hearing) require an extension of time for processing the appeal, in which case the Administrator shall notify the Claimant of such extension within sixty (60) days following receipt by the Administrator of the request for appeal, specifying the special circumstances requiring an extension and the date by which it expects to render a final determination on the appeal, which determination must be rendered and notice given to the Claimant no later than the 120th day following the receipt by the Administrator of the request for appeal.  If an extension is required because the Claimant failed to submit the information necessary to decide a claim, the time period for making a benefit determination set forth in the

11

prior sentence shall be tolled from the date on which the extension notification is sent to the Claimant until the date on which the Claimant responds to the request for additional information.  The final determination shall be made in writing to the Claimant.  The final determination shall (i) recite the specific reasons for a determination adverse to the Claimant, if applicable, with specific reference to the pertinent Plan provision(s) on which the determination is based, (ii) state that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim and (iii) state that the Claimant has a right to bring an action under section 502(a) of ERISA.

ARTICLE XI
Source of Benefits and Payments

11.1                        Unfunded Plan.  The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan of deferred compensation for Participants.  Benefits payable hereunder shall be payable out of the general assets of the Company, and no segregation or any assets whatsoever for such benefits shall be made.  Nothing contained herein shall give any Participant or beneficiary any rights to assets that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Employer.

12.2                        Employment Obligations.  The establishment of this Plan shall not be construed as creating any contract of employment between the Employer and any Participant.  Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as conferring upon any Participant any right to continue in the employment of the Employer, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Employer to terminate the employment of any Participant and/or to take any personnel action affecting any Participant without regard to the effect that such action may have upon such Participant as a recipient or prospective recipient of benefits under the Plan.  Any amount payable hereunder shall not be deemed salary or other compensation to a Participant for the purposes of computing benefits to which the Participant may be entitled under any qualified retirement arrangement established by the Employer for the benefit of its employees.  Nothing herein contained shall give any Participant the right to inspect the books of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Employer to discharge any Participant from employment at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.

12.3                        No Limitation of Employer Action.  Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Employer from taking any action that is deemed by it to be appropriate or in its best interest.  No Participant, beneficiary, or other person shall have any claim against the Employer as a result of such action.

12.4                        Conflicts of Law.  All matters respecting the validity, effect, interpretation and administration of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, except to the extent superseded by ERISA.

12.5                        References.  The masculine pronoun shall include the feminine and the singular form shall include the plural, as necessary for proper interpretation of this Plan.

12.6                        Withholding Taxes.  The Employer may make such provisions and take such actions as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes that the Employer is required to withhold by any law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether Federal, state or local, to withhold in connection with any amounts credited and benefits distributed under the Plan.  Each Participant (or his or her beneficiary); however, shall be responsible for the payment of all individual tax liabilities resulting from any such benefits.

12.7                        Severability.  If any provision of this Plan is held unenforceable, the remainder of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the Plan.

12.8                        Successors.  The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Employer and its successors and assigns.  The term, “successors,” as used herein, shall include any corporate or other business entity which shall, whether by merger, consolidation,

purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Employer, and successor of any such corporation or other business entity.

12.9                        Headings.  Headings are inserted in this Plan for convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in the construction of the provisions of the Plan.

12.10                 Notice.  Any notice required or permitted under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by registered or certified mail.  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.  Mailed notice to the Administrator shall be directed to the Company’s corporate headquarters.  Mailed notice to a Participant or beneficiary shall be directed to the individual’s last known address on the Employer’s records.

12.11                 Section 409A of the Code.  The Plan is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of section 409A of the Code and related guidance, and shall be administered in accordance with such.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, elections as to form and distributions from the Plan may only be made under the Plan upon an event and in a manner permitted by section 409A of the Code.  To the extent that any provision of the Plan would cause a conflict with the requirements of section 409A of the Code, or would cause the administration of the Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of section 409A, such provision shall be deemed null and void.  In no event shall a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in no event may a Specified Employee commence receipt of his benefit under the Plan on account of a Separation From Service prior to the date that is six months from his Separation Date.
