The Plan is also designed to eliminate reductions in benefits under the Basic Plan for those Employees who have participated in the Company’s Executive Deferral Plans and do not qualify for the full scope of benefits under the Basic Plan.

6.3    Benefit Payment Disability benefits will be payable on the same basis as Retirement benefits under Article 4 of the Plan. The last payment will occur on the earlier of the first day of the month during which the Participant ceases to be Disabled, as determined solely by the Committee, or the Participant dies.

6.4    Death Benefit If a Disabled Participant dies, a death benefit will be paid to the Eligible Spouse as provided in Article 5.4.

6.5    Supporting Documentation The Committee may require, no more frequently than once in any calendar year, that a disabled Participant submit medical evidence of continuing Disability satisfactory to the Committee. The Committee may discontinue a Disability benefit after considering such evidence or lack thereof.

7.1    Payment Obligation Amounts payable to a Participant or Eligible Spouse shall be paid from the general assets of the Company or from the assets of a grantor trust within the meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J, chapter 1, subtitle A of the Code, established for use in funding executive compensation arrangements and commonly known as a “rabbi trust.”

7.2    Limitation on Payment Obligation The Company shall have no obligation under the Plan to a Participant or Eligible Spouse, except as provided in this Master Plan Document.

7.3    Furnishing Information The Participant or Eligible Spouse must cooperate in furnishing all information requested by the Company to facilitate the payment of Plan benefits.

7.4    Unsecured General Creditor Participants and Eligible Spouses, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interest in any specific property or assets of the Company. No assets of the Company shall be held under any trust, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under the Plan. Any and all of the Company assets, shall be, and remain, the general unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company obligations under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future, and the rights of the Participants and Eligible Spouses shall be no greater than those of unsecured general creditors. It is the intention of the Company that this Plan (and the Trust Funds described in Article 8) be unfunded for purposes of the Code and for the purposes of ERISA.

7.5    Withholding There shall be deducted from each payment made under the Plan or other compensation payable to the Participant or Eligible Spouse all taxes which are required to be withheld by the Company in respect to such payment under this Plan. The Company shall have the right to reduce any payment (or other compensation) by the amount of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes.

7.6    Future Employment The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Company and a Participant. Moreover, nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

7.7    No Assignment To the maximum extent permitted by law, no interest or benefit under the Plan shall be assignable or subject in any manner to alienation, sale, transfer, claims of creditors, pledge, attachment, or encumbrances of any kind.

8.1    Trusts The Company may maintain one or more Trust Funds to finance all or a portion of the benefits under the Plan

by entering into one or more Trust Agreements. Any Trust Agreement is designated as, and shall constitute, a part of the Plan, and all rights which may accrue to any person under the Plan shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of such Trust Agreement. A Trustee shall be appointed by the Committee or the Board of Directors and shall have such powers as provided in the Trust Agreement. The Committee or the Board of Directors may modify any Trust Agreement, in accordance with its terms, to accomplish the purposes of the Plan and appoint a successor Trustee under the provisions of such Trust Agreement. By entering into such Trust Agreement, the Committee or the Board of Directors may vest in the Trustee, or in one or more investment managers (as defined in ERISA), the power to manage and control the Trust Fund. The Committee and the Board of Directors authority under the provisions of this Article 8 will cease upon the occurrence of a Change in Control.

9.1    Plan Amendment To the extent permitted by the IRC and related regulations, the Board of Directors may, at any time and without notice, amend or modify the Plan or by resolution reduce the eligibility requirements or increase the benefits for an individual Participant at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part; provided however, that:

9.3    Bankruptcy To the extent permitted under Code Section 409A and its related Treasury regulations, the Board of Directors shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Plan and distribute each Participant’s benefits to the Participant or, if applicable, the Eligible Spouse, within twelve months of a corporate dissolution taxed under Section 331 of the Code or with the approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §503(b)(1)(a). The total accelerated distribution under this Article 9.3 must be included in a Participant’s gross income in the latest of:
