(b) For each full or partial year of Continuous Service during the second half of the Reduced Service Period, benefits shall Accrue under this Plan at an annual rate determined by dividing fifteen percent (15%) of Final Average Earnings by one-half (½) of the number of years (including any partial year computed on a monthly basis (expressed in decimal form)) contained in the Reduced Service Period.

3.3 Vesting.

A Participant shall Vest in his or her Accrued Benefit hereunder on the earlier of the completion of ten (10) years of Continuous Service or the attainment of age sixty (60), regardless of service, provided, however, that an Eligible Employee who is selected by the Committee to be a Participant in the Plan on or after August 1, 1999, and who has been re-employed after having a break in service, shall not Vest in his or her Accrued Benefit if he or she either voluntarily terminates employment or is involuntarily terminated for Cause within three (3) years after being re-employed, unless such Participant has attained age sixty (60) prior to voluntary termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Article 3.3 shall override or supercede the vesting provisions set forth in Articles VII and VIII hereof. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant who (a) terminates employment with the Company prior to completing ten (10) years of Continuous Service and (b) has not vested in any of his or her Accrued Benefit as a result of a Change in Control, shall be vested in an amount equal to the benefit he or she would be entitled to receive if he or she had participated in the Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. Restoration Retirement Plan during the period he or she was a Participant in this Plan.

ARTICLE IV

RETIREMENT BENEFITS

4.1 Normal Retirement.

A Participant who retires from the Company on or after his or her Normal Retirement Date shall be entitled to receive an annual retirement benefit (the “Normal Retirement Benefit”) for life, equal to the excess of:

(a) the Participant’s Accrued Benefits determined under Sections 3.1 or 3.2 hereof; over

(b) the sum of:

(i) the annual retirement benefits payable to the Participant as a life annuity pursuant to the defined benefit retirement plan of the Company (as such plan might be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time) which is the actuarial equivalent (as defined in Section 5.3) of such Participant’s Pension Equity Account as defined in such plan;

(ii) the annual retirement benefits payable to the Participant pursuant to any employer-funded defined benefit plan maintained by a prior employer of the Participant, assuming that such benefits are payable in the form of a single life annuity for the life of the Participant; and

(iii) the Participant’s annual primary insurance amount under the Federal Social Security Act as in effect on the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date or, if applicable, his date of death. In determining such amount under Section 4.2 below for a Participant who severs from service prior to his Normal Retirement Date, it shall be assumed that the Participant will continue to receive, until his Normal Retirement Date, annual compensation (which would be treated as wages for purposes of the Federal Social Security Act) at the same rate which is in effect immediately prior to his termination of employment.

4.2 Early Retirement.

(a) A Participant who retires from the Company on or after his or her Early Retirement Date but prior to his or her Normal Retirement Date shall be entitled to receive his or her Normal Retirement Benefit commencing on the date of his or her retirement; provided, however, that such date of commencement may, at the election of the Participant pursuant to Section 4.3, be deferred to the date that the Participant attains age sixty (60). If the Participant retires prior to age sixty (60) and begins to receive benefits under this Plan prior to age sixty (60), such Participant shall be entitled to receive only a Reduced Retirement Benefit (determined as hereinafter provided) commencing at his or her date of retirement. “Reduced Retirement Benefit” shall mean the amount equal to that percentage of the Participant’s Normal Retirement Benefit determined by subtracting from one hundred percent (100%) the aggregate of 6.67% for each year (prorated over any partial year based on completed months of service) between the Participant’s retirement date and the date on which the Participant would reach age sixty (60). If a Participant retires

4

prior to age sixty (60) but does not begin receiving benefits under this Plan until he or she is at least age sixty (60), there shall be no reduction in the Participant’s Normal Retirement Benefit. For purposes of determining the amount of the Normal Retirement Benefit or the Reduced Retirement Benefit, as the case may be, for a Participant who retires after August 1, 1996, and prior to age sixty-five (65), each of the offset amounts under paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 4.1(b) shall be calculated by: (i) determining the value of the projected amount such Participant would receive if he or she began receiving the benefits described in such paragraphs beginning on the earliest date such benefits become payable and (ii) converting this amount to an actuarially equivalent (determined in accordance with Section 5.3) single life annuity beginning on the date such Participant begins receiving benefits under this Plan.

(b) If a Participant retires prior to his or her Early Retirement Date, the Participant shall be entitled to receive any of his or her Normal Retirement Benefit which is then Vested. Such Normal Retirement Benefit shall be payable, at the election of the Participant pursuant to Section 4.3, as follows: (1) beginning at the time the Participant becomes age fifty-five (55) (or at Participant’s current age if he is age fifty-five (55) or older), with a Reduced Retirement Benefit determined as provided in subparagraph (a) above, or (2) beginning at the time the Participant becomes age sixty (60), with no reduction in the Normal Retirement Benefit, or (3) if Participant is under fifty-five (55) years of age when he or she retires, as a single lump sum payment at the time of retirement equal to the present value of his or her Normal Retirement Benefit, determined using the actuarial equivalent, as defined in Section 5.3.

4.3 Elections Related to Early Retirement.

For a Participant retiring after his Early Retirement Date but prior to his Normal Retirement Date pursuant to Section 4.2(a), he may elect, by a written election delivered to the Company’s Senior Vice President—Human Resources at least thirty (30) days prior to his retirement, whether he wishes to receive: (1) a Reduced Retirement Benefit which will begin being paid immediately pursuant to the payment terms of Article V (not applicable if Participant is age sixty (60) or older), or (2) a Normal Retirement Benefit that will not begin being paid until age sixty (60) (or his current age if he is age sixty (60) or older). For a Participant retiring prior to his Early Retirement Date pursuant to Section 4.2(b), he may elect, by a written election delivered to Company’s Senior Vice President—Human Resources at least thirty (30) days prior to his retirement, whether he wishes to receive: (1) a Reduced Retirement Benefit which will become payable, per the payment terms of Article V, at age fifty-five (55) (or his current age if he is age fifty-five (55) or older), or (2) a Normal Retirement Benefit which will become payable, per the payment terms of Article V, at age sixty (60), or (3) if a Participant is under age fifty-five (55), the actuarial equivalent, determined in accordance with Section 5.3, of his Normal Retirement Benefit, paid as a lump sum payment. For each Participant electing either option (1) or option (2) above, such Participant may elect an optional form of payment under the terms of Section 5.4.

ARTICLE V

FORM OF PAYMENT

5.1 Normal Form of Payment.

Unless an optional form of payment is elected by the Participant in accordance with Section 5.4, all retirement benefits payable pursuant to this Plan will be paid in the form of a one hundred percent (100%) joint and survivor annuity paid pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2(a). Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, the first monthly payment shall be made on the first day of the calendar month following the Participant’s retirement date.

5.2 Other Forms of Payment.

Each Participant may elect, pursuant to Section 5.4, to receive payment of his retirement benefits via one of the following optional forms of payment, rather than via the form of payment described in Section 5.1:

(a) A one hundred percent (100%) joint and survivor annuity, pursuant to which an annuity is payable for the life of the Participant with a survivor’s annuity for the life of the Participant’s spouse, which annuity is

5

equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of the annuity payable during the joint lives of the Participant and his or her spouse.

(b) A fifty percent (50%) joint and survivor annuity, pursuant to which an annuity is payable for the life of the Participant with a survivor’s annuity for the life of the Participant’s spouse, which annuity is equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the annuity payable during the joint lives of the Participant and his or her spouse.

(c) A ten (10) year certain installment payment, pursuant to which a fixed monthly benefit is payable to the Participant for the lesser of ten (10) years or the life of the Participant, with the continuation of the same benefit to the Participant’s designated beneficiary for any remaining portion of the ten (10) year certain period if the Participant dies prior to the end of such period.

(d) A five (5) year certain installment payment, pursuant to which a fixed monthly benefit is payable to the Participant for the lesser of five (5) years or the life of the Participant, with the continuation of the same benefit to the Participant’s designated beneficiary for any remaining portion of the five (5) year certain period if the Participant dies prior to the end of such period.

(e) A single lump sum payment.

If a Participant does not make a timely election to receive payment of his retirement benefits via one of the optional forms of payment described in Subsections (a) through (e) above, the Senior Vice President – Human Resources may elect one of the above-described optional forms of payment for such Participant, but only with Participant’s written consent.

5.3 Actuarial Equivalent.

Any optional form of payment described in Section 5.2 shall be the actuarial equivalent of the normal form of payment specified in Section 5.1 hereof. All determinations of actuarial equivalency will be based on the 1983 Unloaded Group Annuity Mortality Table weighted fifty percent (50%) male and an interest rate of eight percent (8.0%). The lump sum amount will equal the present value of future payments under this Plan, assuming payment of benefits commenced immediately (or age fifty-five (55) for a Vested termination on or before the Participant’s 55th birthday).

5.4 Election of Form of Payment.

If a Participant makes a written election at least thirty (30) days prior to his retirement, he may elect one of the forms of payment described in Sections 5.2(a) through 5.2(e), and the Committee must comply with such payment election. Participant may modify his election at any time by making another written election, provided such written election is received by the Company’s Senior Vice President—Human Resources at least thirty (30) days prior to his retirement. For a written election to be validly made, Participant must deliver such a written election to the Company’s Senior Vice President—Human Resources and such election shall be deemed made on the date on which the Company’s Senior Vice President—Human Resources receives it.

ARTICLE VI

SPOUSAL AND ESTATE BENEFIT

In the event a Participant who is Vested shall die while actively employed, or after his or her Early Retirement Date but prior to the commencement of payment of retirement benefits, the Participant shall be deemed to have retired for purposes of this Plan on the later of (i) the day immediately preceding his or her death, or (ii) the first day of the first calendar month thereafter in which the Participant would have attained age fifty-five (55), and the Participant’s Beneficiary (as hereinafter defined) shall be entitled to a benefit equal to fifty percent (50%) of the retirement benefit the Participant would have received if he or she had actually retired on such deemed retirement date. If the Participant has a surviving spouse, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be such Participant’s surviving spouse and such benefit shall be payable in the form of a single life annuity for the life of the surviving spouse. If the Participant does not have a surviving spouse, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be such Participant’s estate and such benefit shall be payable

6

in the form of a single lump sum payment equal to the present value of such benefit, determined using the actuarial equivalent, as defined in Section 5.3.

ARTICLE VII

8.3 Continuation of the Plan

For a period of two (2) years following a Change in Control, the Plan shall not be terminated or amended in any way nor shall the manner in which the Plan is administered be changed in a way that adversely affects the level of retirement benefits received by a Participant under the Plan.

8.4 Definition of Change in Control.

For purposes of this Plan, a Change in Control shall mean any of the following events:

(a) The acquisition in one or more transactions by any “Person” (as the term person is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)) of “Beneficial Ownership” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act) of twenty percent (20%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (the “Voting Securities”); provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 8.4, the Voting Securities acquired directly from the Company by any Person shall be excluded from the determination of such Person’s Beneficial Ownership of Voting Securities (but such Voting Securities shall be included in the calculation of the total number of Voting Securities then outstanding); or

(b) The individuals who are members of the Incumbent Board (as defined below) cease for any reason to constitute at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Board. The “Incumbent Board” shall include the individuals who as of August 20, 1990, are members of the Board and any individual becoming a director subsequent to August 20, 1990, whose election, or nomination for election, by the Company stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board; provided, however, that any individual who is not a member of the Incumbent Board at the time he or she becomes a member of the Board shall become a member of the Incumbent Board upon the completion of two (2) full years as a member of the board; provided, further,however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no individual shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board if such individual initially assumed office (i) as a result of either an actual or threatened “election contest” (within the meaning of Rule

7

14a-11 promulgated under the 1934 Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board (a “Proxy Contest”) or (ii) with the approval of the other Board members, but by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle a Proxy Contest; or

(c) Approval by stockholders of the Company of (i) a merger or consolidation involving the Company if the stockholders of the Company, immediately before such merger or consolidation, do not own, directly or indirectly, immediately following such merger or consolidation, more than eight percent (80%) of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Voting Securities immediately before such merger or consolidation or (ii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or an agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because twenty percent (20%) or more of the then outstanding Voting Securities is acquired by (i) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or more employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) any corporation which, immediately prior to such acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the Company immediately prior to such acquisition.

Moreover, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any Person (the “Subject Person”) acquired Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the outstanding Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the Company, which acquisition, by reducing the number of Voting Securities outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, provided that if, after a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of such acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Voting Securities, which increases the percentage of the then outstanding Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur.
