Each Participant’s RSU Deferral Account may be further divided into separate subaccounts, each of which corresponds to an award of RSUs or to a Separate Grant deferred by the Participant. At the discretion of the Committee, RSUs deferred under the Plan may be credited with cash or stock dividends paid by the Company in respect of a Share (“Dividend Equivalents”). Dividend Equivalents will be deemed reinvested in additional RSUs based on the Fair Market Value of a Share on the applicable dividend payment date and rounded down to the nearest whole Share. In no event shall any portion of any RSU deferral be allocated to any Investment Fund offered under the Plan. In the event Shares cease

to be publicly traded, the Committee may make reasonable provision for such award to be paid in cash or other property as appropriate in the circumstances. RSU Deferral Accounts shall be used solely as a device to measure and determine the amount to be paid to a Participant under the Plan.

The claimant shall receive written notice of the Decision on Review. Such notice shall contain the specific reasons for the denial (if applicable), specific references to pertinent provisions of the Plan on which the denial (if applicable) is based and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following a Decision on Review that is a final adverse benefit determination.

10.6    Limitations. A claimant shall have no right to bring any action at law or in equity regarding a claim for benefits, unless and until the claimant exhausts his or her rights to review under Section 10.5 in accordance with the time frames set forth therein. No action at law or in equity shall be brought to recover benefits under the Plan more than two (2) years from the date of the Decision on Review. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the applicable analogous Delaware statute of limitations has run or will run before the aforementioned two (2) year period, the Delaware statute of limitations is controlling. No action at law or in equity shall be brought in connection with the Plan, except in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa.

10.7    No Liability. No employee, agent, officer, trustee or director of the Company or any Employer shall, in any event, be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the interpretation, construction or administration of this Plan, so long as such action or omission to act be made in good faith.

11.1    Amendment or Termination of Plan. The Board may terminate the Plan at any time by written resolution of the Board. The Plan may be amended by the Board or the Committee at any time by written resolution of the Board or the Committee, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment or termination of the Plan may reduce the amount credited to a Participant’s Compensation Deferral and RSU Deferral Accounts, other than a reduction resulting from losses based upon the Participant’s deemed investment election for the Participant’s Compensation Deferral Account. No further amounts may be deferred under the Plan following the date of the Plan’s termination, and amounts previously deferred under the Plan shall be distributed within ninety (90) days of the Plan’s termination date. The Committee may, in its discretion, accelerate distributions under the Plan under such terms and conditions as may be specifically authorized under Code Section 409A and applicable guidance thereunder.

11.2    Unfunded Plan; Establishment of Trust. The Plan shall at all times be entirely unfunded and, except as provided in the following paragraph, no provision of the Plan shall at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of the Company or any other Employer for payment of any benefits under the Plan. Participants and Beneficiaries shall at all times have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Employers, and neither Participants nor Beneficiaries shall have any rights in or against any specific assets of the Employers. The Plan constitutes a mere promise by the Employers to make benefit payments in the future.

The Company may establish a reserve of assets to provide funds for the payment of benefits under the Plan. Such reserve may be through the trust and such reserve shall, at all times, be subject to the claims of general creditors of the Employers and shall otherwise be on such terms and conditions as shall prevent taxation to Participants and Beneficiaries of any amounts held in the reserve or credited to an account prior to the time payments are made. No Participant or Beneficiary shall have any ownership rights in or to any reserve. Benefits paid to a Participant or Beneficiary from any such trust or trusts shall be considered paid by the Company for purposes of meeting the obligations of the Company under the Plan.

11.3    Domestic Relations Orders. The Committee may make any payments under a domestic relations order (within the meaning of Code Section 414(p)) to a spouse or former spouse of a Participant in connection with a property settlement or otherwise. The Committee, in its discretion, shall have the right, notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, to immediately distribute the spouse’s or former spouse’s interest in the Participant’s vested benefit under the Plan to that spouse or former spouse.

11.4    No Assignment. Neither a Participant, a Beneficiary nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber,

transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. Except as provided in Section 11.3 regarding domestic relations orders, no part of the amount payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant, a Beneficiary or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or Beneficiary or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise.

11.5    Withholding. The Participant shall make appropriate arrangements with the Employer for satisfaction of any federal, state or local income tax withholding requirements, Social Security and other employee tax, or other requirements applicable to the granting, crediting, vesting or payment of benefits under the Plan. There shall be deducted from each payment made under the Plan or any other Compensation payable to the Participant (or Beneficiary) all taxes required to be withheld by the Company with respect to such payment or the Plan. The Employer shall have the right to reduce any payment (or other Compensation) by the amount of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes.

11.6    Cooperation. The Participant shall cooperate with the Company by furnishing all information reasonably requested by the Committee in order to facilitate the payment of benefits under the Plan and taking such actions as may reasonably be requested by the Committee. If the Participant refuses to so cooperate, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Participant under the Plan.

11.7    Receipt or Release. Any payment made in good faith to a Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Committee, its members, the Company and the Employers. The Committee may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect.

11.8    Employment Not Guaranteed. Nothing contained in the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as a contract of employment or as giving any Participant any right to continue the provision of services in any capacity whatsoever to the Company or to any Employer.

11.9    Successors. The Plan is binding on all persons entitled to benefits hereunder and their respective heirs and legal representatives, on the Committee and its successor and on the Company and its successor, whether by way of merger, consolidation, purchase or otherwise.

11.10    Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Company or the Participant under this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, in the case of the Company, to the principal office of the Company, directed to the attention of the Committee, and in the case of the Participant, to the last known address of the Participant indicated on the employment records of the Company. 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. Notices to the Company may be permitted by electronic communication according to specifications established by the Committee.

11.11    Headings. Headings and subheadings in this Plan are inserted for reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions of the Plan.

11.12    Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the person or persons may require. As the context may require, the singular may be read as the plural and the plural as the singular.

11.13    Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by the applicable Code provisions to the maximum extent possible. Otherwise, the laws of Delaware (without reference to principles of conflicts of laws) shall govern the operation of and the rights of participants under the Plan.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Board of Directors of the Company has approved the adoption of this Plan effective as of the date specified above and has caused the Plan to be executed by its duly authorized representative this 14th day of January, 2016.
