For a Portable Account Participant who previously received distribution of his or her entire Portable Account in a single lump sum, the preceding sentence shall apply to
his or her remaining vested benefit under the Plan, if any. If a Participant to which this paragraph applies does not elect to have such lump sum payment paid directly to an eligible retirement plan in a direct rollover or to receive such lump sum payment directly, the Committee shall pay the lump sum payment in a direct rollover to an individual retirement account designated by the Committee.

(i) The Participant must die while married or with a Domestic Partner;

If the Retired Participant and his or her Spouse or Domestic Partner who is a Covered Dependent predecease the Retired Participant's Covered Dependents who are children (including adult children who are Covered Dependents), such Covered Dependents who are children will be treated as a separate Covered Dependent unit having the deceased Retired Participant's Pre-Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB Balance unless the Covered Dependent is eligible for a Retiree Reimbursement Account (“RRA”) , as described below.
A bookkeeping account, the RRA, will be established for a Retired Participant or his Spouse or Domestic Partner, if any, for each Plan Year in which the Retired Participant or his or her Spouse or Domestic Partner is at least age 65 and eligible for Medicare as a result of his or her age. The RRA established for each of the Retired Participant and his or her Spouse or Domestic Partner who is at least age 65 will be credited with the lesser of (i) the Retired Participant's Medicare Eligible Coverage DDB Balance amount or (ii) the maximum RRA credit established by the Committee for that Plan Year. No RRA will be established for periods prior to the Retired Participant or his or her Spouse or Domestic Partner becoming age 65 and eligible for Medicare. Effective January 1, 2013, a RRA will be established for a Covered Dependent described in Section 12.2(b)(iii) who is a child upon such Covered Dependent becoming age 65 and eligible for Medicare. Any unused DDB Balance or balance to a RRA may not be carried forward from one Plan Year to a future Plan Year.

12.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned certify that United Parcel Service of America, Inc. based upon action by the Board of Directors on December 18, 2012 has caused this Amendment No. 5 to be adopted.

3. Definition of “Compensation”:
“Compensation. For taxable years commencing on and after January 1, 2012, the maximum amount of compensation that shall be taken into account for purposes of computing contributions under the Plan, as well as discrimination testing and the limitations to benefits and contributions under Section 1081.01(a) of the PR Code, shall not exceed annually $250,000 for the Plan Year 2012, $255,000 for the Plan Year 2013 or any other amount established under Section 401(a)(17) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or by the Puerto Rico Treasury Department through regulations or administrative determinations.”

“Pursuant to Section 1081.01(a)(11)(A) of the PR Code, the annual benefits accrued by a Participant, determined as a straight life annuity with no ancillary benefits and under a plan that does not allow for participants' contributions nor rollover contributions, may not exceed the lesser of: (i) $200,000 for Plan Year 2012, $205,000 for Plan Year 2013 or any other limitation amount imposed under Section 415(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for the applicable Plan Year; or (ii) 100% of the Participant's average annual compensation for the period of consecutive natural years (no more than 3) during which the Participant's compensation was the highest, or whatever other dollar limitation may be imposed by the PR Code or the Puerto Rico Treasury Department by the way of regulations or administrative determinations. This provision shall be effective for Plan years commencing on or after January 1, 2012.”
5. Direct Rollovers.
(a) | Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a distributee's election under this Section 5, a distributee, that due to his termination of employment, receives all or part of the value of his benefit in a single lump sum distribution, within a single taxable year, in a distribution that otherwise meets the requirements of Section 1081.01(b)(2)(A) of the PR Code, may elect at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Committee, to have the total amount of such distribution rolled over into another Puerto Rico qualified plan or Puerto Rico Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”), specified by the distributee. |
(b) | Direct rollovers under this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. |
(c) | For purposes of this Section 5, a distributee may include (1) a Participant, and, to the extent permitted by PR Code or by the Puerto Rico Treasury Department, (2) a Participant's Spouse, or (3) an alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order who is the Spouse or former Spouse of a Participant. |
(d) | Solely for purposes of administering and qualifying the Plan in Puerto Rico, the terms 'Eligible Rollover Distribution' and 'Eligible Retirement Plan' shall mean: |
(i) Eligible rollover distribution: An eligible rollover distribution is any distribution of all or part of the balance to the credit of the distributee within a single taxable year of the distributee, as a result of the termination of employment of the distributee, and that otherwise meets the requirements of Section 1081.01(b)(2)(A) of the PR Code.
(ii) Eligible retirement plan: An eligible retirement plan is an individual retirement account described in Section 1081.02(a) of the PR Code, an individual retirement annuity described in Section 1081.02(b) of the PR Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 1081.01(a) of the PR Code, that accepts the distributee's eligible rollover distribution. However, in the case of an eligible rollover distribution to the surviving spouse, an eligible retirement plan is an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity.
6. Taxation of Lump Sum Distributions.
(a) | The taxation in Puerto Rico of any lump sum distributions made by the Plan to a terminated participant shall be governed by this Section 6. |
(b) | Under Section 1081.01(b) of the PR Code, the distribution of the entire interest of a Participant in the Plan (in excess of his or her After Tax Contributions), within the same taxable year, and as a result of his or her termination of employment, shall be treated as a long term capital gain taxable at a 20% rate. However, if the Plan: (i) uses a trust organized in Puerto Rico or a Puerto Rico co-trustee which will act a paying agent; and (ii) invest no less than 10% of its assets (determined on an average daily basis) in the Plan Year of the distribution and the two preceding Plan Years, in certain assets treated as located in Puerto Rico (as defined in the PR Code and the regulations issued thereunder), the long term capital gain arising from the distribution will be taxed instead at a rate of 10%. |
7. Merger, Consolidation, Transfer of Assets of the Plan.
“In the case of any merger or consolidation of the Plan with, or transfer of assets or liabilities of the Plan to, any other plan, each Participant shall (if the Plan had then terminated) be entitled to receive a benefit immediately after such merger, consolidation or transfer which shall be at least equal to the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before such merger, consolidation or transfer (if the Plan had then terminated).
In the event of any of the above transactions, the Plan shall be subject to the tax qualification requirements of Section 1081.01(a)(3)(D) of the PR Code.”
8. These amendments will govern the administration of the Plan, including its tax qualification, to the extent they are applicable to a Participant employed in Puerto Rico (a “Puerto Rico Participant”). To the extent the Plan covers any Puerto Rico Participant, it will be administered pursuant to, and in compliance with, the requirements of Sections 1033.09 and 1081.01 of the PR Code.
