Exhibit 4.3

LAMB WESTON HOLDINGS, INC.
VOLUNTARY DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

(Effective January 1, 2017)

The Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. Voluntary Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) is adopted effective January 1, 2017.  The Plan is a successor to the ConAgra Foods, Inc. Amended and Restated Voluntary Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Prior Plan”), following the spin-off of Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) from ConAgra Foods, Inc.  Accrual of benefits under the Prior Plan for affected key employees was terminated effective as of December 31, 2016, at which time the liability for the deferred benefits of such key employees and former key employees under the Prior Plan were transferred to the Plan.  All deferral and payment elections under the Prior Plan shall apply under the Plan.

The Plan is established and maintained by the Company for the purpose of permitting certain key employees of the Company and of corporations that are related to the Company to defer the receipt of a portion of their income and/or participate in any appreciation in the value of Company Stock.  Accordingly, the Company hereby adopts the Plan pursuant to the terms and provisions set forth below:

PART I
NON-GRANDFATHERED AMOUNTS

The provisions of this Part I shall apply to amounts due pursuant to the Plan that are not “Grandfathered Amounts,” as that term is defined in Part II.

ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS

1.1Account.  The term “Account” means the bookkeeping account established by the Company to which Compensation Deferral Contributions, Employer Matching Contributions, Employer Non-elective Contributions, and earnings and losses thereon, are credited for any Participant.  Account shall include all amounts transferred from the Prior Plan, except for any “Grandfather Amount” described in Part II.

1.2Change of Control Event.  With respect to amounts in a Participant’s Account that are subject to an election for calendar years on and after January 1, 2017, a “Change of Control” shall occur upon any of the following dates:

(a)  The date individuals who constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason during any 12 month period to constitute at least 50% of the members of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be, for purposes of the Plan, considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or

(b)  The date of consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, in each case, with respect to which persons who were the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own 50% or more of the combined voting power of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company’s then outstanding voting securities.

(c)  The date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group who is not related to the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)((vii)(B), acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 80% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions.  For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

For purposes of this Section, “more than one person acting as a group” is determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)(B).  If a person owns stock in both entities that enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, such shareholder is considered to be acting as a group with other shareholders in a corporation only with respect to the ownership in that corporation before the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation.  In no event shall a change of control occur under circumstances that would not constitute a “change in the ownership of a corporation,” a “change in effective control of a corporation,” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of a corporation’s assets,” as those terms are defined in regulations and other applicable guidance issued under Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) Section 409A.

With respect to amounts in a Participant’s Account that are subject to an election for calendar years prior to January 1, 2017, a “Change of Control” shall occur in accordance with the preceding definition of “Change of Control” except that as used in the definition of “Change on Control”  (i) “Company” shall mean ConAgra Foods, Inc., and (ii) “Board” shall mean  the Board of Directors of ConAgra Foods, Inc.

1.3Compensation Deferral Agreement.  The term “Compensation Deferral Agreement” means the written compensation deferral agreement entered into by a Participant with the Company pursuant to the Plan.

1.4Compensation Deferral Contribution.  “Compensation Deferral Contribution” means a contribution made to the Plan by a Participant pursuant to Section 3.1.

1.5Disability.  A Participant has a “Disability” or shall be considered “Disabled” if the Participant is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under the Company’s long-term disability plan.

1.6Distribution Sub-Account.  The term “Distribution Sub-Account” shall refer to each sub-account elected by the Participant pursuant to Section 5.1 for the purpose of applying a specific election concerning time and form of payment to only such sub-account.

1.7Employer Matching Contribution.  The term “Employer Matching Contribution” means a contribution made to the Plan by the Employer pursuant to Section 3.2.

2

1.8Employer Non-elective Contribution.  The term “Employer Non-elective Contribution” means a contribution made to the Plan by the Employer pursuant to Section 3.3.

1.9Related Company.  The term “Related Company” means:  (i) any corporation that is a member of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in Code Section 414(b) that includes the Company); and (ii) any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) that is under common control (as defined in Code Section 414(c)) with the Company.  For purposes of applying Code Sections 414(b) and (c), 25% is substituted for the 80% ownership level.

1.10Separation from Service.  The term “Separation from Service” means the date that the Participant separates from service within the meaning of Code Section 409A.  Generally, a Participant separates from service if the Participant dies, retires, or otherwise has a termination of employment with the Company, determined in accordance with the following:

(a)Leaves of Absence.  The employment relationship is treated as continuing intact while the Participant is on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed 6 months, or, if longer, so long as the Participant retains a right to reemployment with the Company under an applicable statute or by contract.  A leave of absence constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Participant will return to perform services for the Company.  If the period of leave exceeds 6 months and the Participant does not retain a right to reemployment under an applicable statute or by contract, the employment relationship is deemed to terminate on the first date immediately following such 6-month period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a leave of absence is due to any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 6 months, where such impairment causes the Participant to be unable to perform the duties of his or her position of employment or any substantially similar position of employment, a 29-month period of absence shall be substituted for such 6-month period.

(b)Dual Status.  Generally, if a Participant performs services both as an employee and an independent contractor, such Participant must separate from service both as an employee and as an independent contractor, pursuant to standards set forth in Treasury Regulations, to be treated as having a separation from service.  However, if a Participant provides services to the Company as an employee and as a member of the Board, and if any plan in which such person participates as a Board member is not aggregated with the Plan pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(c)(2)(ii), then the services provided as a director are not taken into account in determining whether the Participant has a separation from service as an employee for purposes of the Plan.

(c)Termination of Employment.  Whether a termination of employment has occurred is determined based on whether the facts and circumstances indicate that the Company and the Participant reasonably anticipated that no further services would be performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services the Participant would perform after such date (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor except as provided in subsection (b) of this section would permanently decrease to no more than 20% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor, except as provided in subsection (b) of this section over the immediately preceding 36-month period (or the full period of services to the Company if the Participant has been providing services to the Company less than 36 months).

3

For periods during which a Participant is on a paid bona fide leave of absence and has not otherwise terminated employment as described above, for purposes of this subsection (c), the Participant is treated as providing bona fide services at a level equal to the level of services that the Participant would have been required to perform to receive the compensation paid with respect to such leave of absence.  Periods during which a Participant is on an unpaid bona fide leave of absence and has not otherwise terminated employment are disregarded for purposes of this subsection (c) (including for purposes of determining the applicable 36-month (or shorter) period).

(d)Service with Related Companies.  For purposes of determining whether a separation from service has occurred under the above provisions, the “Company” shall include the Company and all Related Companies.

ARTICLE II
ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES

Compensation Deferral Contributions may be made by those employees of the Employer who either have been selected by, and at the sole and absolute discretion of, the Compensation Committee, or who are both categorized by the Company or a Related Company as a grade level 23 or higher, and who have an annual base salary that equals or exceeds $125,000.00.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Participant who made Compensation Deferral Contributions during 2016 under the Prior Plan may continue to make Compensation Deferral Contributions for each Plan Year beginning after 2016 under the Plan, provided that such Participant’s annual base salary equals or exceeds $125,000.00 as of the first day of the applicable Plan Year, and any Participant who has a balance in the Prior Plan as of December 31, 2016, shall become a Participant with respect to such balance and any earnings or losses thereon.  The Committee may increase from time to time the required grade level and/or base salary amount, and the Committee may amend the Plan accordingly, all without the approval of the Compensation Committee or the Board.

The Committee shall have sole and absolute discretion to determine whether an individual’s base salary equals or exceeds the required dollar amount.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Plan is intended to be a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for a select group of management or highly compensated employees (as that expression is used in ERISA) and participation shall be limited to such employees.  Each Participant shall continue to be a participant in the Plan until all payments due under the Plan have been paid.  The Compensation Committee may determine at any time that a Participant shall no longer be eligible to make Compensation Deferral Contributions.

Notwithstanding any provision apparently to the contrary in the Plan document or in any written communications, summary, resolution, oral communication or other document, in the event it is determined that a Participant will no longer be eligible to make Compensation Deferral Contributions, then the election for Compensation Deferral Contributions made by that individual in accordance with the provisions of the Plan will continue for the remainder of the calendar year during which such determination is made.  However, no additional amounts shall be deferred and credited to the Participant’s Account under the Plan for any future calendar year until such time as the individual is again determined to be eligible to make Compensation Deferral Contributions and makes a new election under the provisions of the Plan.  Amounts credited to the Account of such individual shall continue to be adjusted pursuant to the other provisions of the Plan until fully distributed.

4

Employer Matching Contributions and Employer Non-elective Contributions may be made by the Employer to those employees of the Employer who either have been selected by, and at the sole and absolute discretion of, the Committee, or who have annual total cash compensation in excess of the Code Section 401(1)(17) limitation.

ARTICLE III
DEFERRALS

3.1Employee Deferrals.  During one or more window periods each Plan Year determined by the Company, a Participant may elect to have a portion of his or her pay for the following Plan Year deposited in the Plan (“Compensation Deferral Contribution”).  Unless the Committee specifies otherwise, any Compensation Deferral Contribution election will continue from year-to-year until timely changed by the Participant (and such change will be effective for the Plan Year following the Plan Year during which such change election is received by the Company) or until specified otherwise by the Committee to the extent permitted without resulting in any Adverse 409A Consequence.  The minimum deposit shall be 5% of the Participant’s base salary or short-term incentive.  The maximum deposit shall be determined and changed by the Committee from time to time (which may be set forth in the Compensation Deferred Agreement) and, in the absence of any such determination shall be (i) 50% of the Participant’s normal salary, (ii) 90% of the Participant’s short-term incentive, and (iii) 90% of the sum of the Participant’s normal salary plus short-term incentive in excess of the Code Section 401(1)(17) limitation in effect for such Plan Year.  The Participant’s election shall be made in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Committee and in accordance with a Compensation Deferral Agreement.  The elected deferral percentage shall not apply to compensation that is not eligible for deferral under the terms of the Company’s 401(k) plan (ignoring for this purpose the limitations imposed by Code Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3) and 415) as in effect on December 31 of the year preceding the year of the deferral.  The Compensation Deferral Contribution shall be credited to the Participant’s Account under the Plan as soon as reasonably practicable following the date the Participant would have otherwise been entitled to receive cash compensation absent an election to defer under this Section 3.1.  A Compensation Deferral Contribution election shall be irrevocable as of the earlier of (1) the deadline specified by the Company and (2) the last day of a Plan Year, with respect to Compensation Deferral Contributions to be made during the following Plan Year, except for a cancellation permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4).

3.2Employer Matching Contributions.  The Employer will credit, at the end of each Plan Year, an eligible Participant’s Account with Employer Matching Contributions equal to a dollar for dollar match, limited to 6% of compensation earned by the Participant and paid by the Employer in excess of the Code Section 401(1)(17) limitation.  The amount of each Employer Matching Contribution shall be automatically reduced by any applicable Federal Insurance Contributions Act tax (or other applicable tax) at the time such contribution is made.  Examples: (1) If a Participant receives total cash compensation of $300,000 in 2017, and she deferred $10,000 for 2017, she would receive an Employer Matching Contribution (assuming the Code Section 401(a)(17) limitation for 2017 is $270,000) of $1,800 (6% of $30,000); (2) If the Participant, in the first example, only deferred $1,000 for 2017, she would receive an Employer Matching Contribution of $1,000.

5

Compensation, for purposes of calculating Employer Matching Contributions, shall be defined in the same manner as the term “compensation” is defined in the Lamb Weston, Inc. Retirement Income Savings Plan, except that, for purposes of this Section 3.2, a Participant’s Compensation will include non-qualified deferred compensation in the Plan Year in which such compensation is deferred.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend or modify any future Employer Matching Contributions by amending the Plan.  No Participant listed in Schedule 1 shall be eligible to receive an Employer Matching Contribution.

3.3Employer Non-elective Contributions.  The Employer will credit to each actively employed Participant’s Account, at the end of each Plan Year (i.e., such amount will be credited as of December 31 of each Plan Year), with Employer Non-elective Contributions equal to 3% of an eligible Participant’s normal compensation and short term incentive in excess of the Code Section 401(a)(17) limitation in effect for such Plan Year.  If a Participant is not permitted to make Compensation Deferral Contributions in the first year of hire, an Employer Non-elective Contribution equal to 9% of such Participant’s normal compensation and short term incentive in excess of the applicable Code Section 401(a)(17) limitation will be made for such Participant in his/her first Plan Year of participation, and such amount will be credited to the Participant’s Account as of the end of such first Plan Year.

The amount of each Employer Non-elective Contribution shall be automatically reduced by any applicable Federal Insurance Contributions Act tax (or other applicable tax) at the time such contribution is made.  Compensation, for purposes of calculating Employer Non-elective Contributions, shall be defined in the same manner as the term “compensation” is defined in the Lamb Weston, Inc. Retirement Income Savings Plan, except that, for purposes of this Section 3.3, a Participant’s Compensation will include non-qualified deferred compensation in the Plan Year in which such compensation is deferred.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend or modify any future Employer Non-elective Contributions by amending the Plan.

ARTICLE IV
VESTING

4.1Compensation Deferral Contributions.  Each Participant shall have a fully 100% vested and nonforfeitable interest in his or her Compensation Deferral Contributions at all times.

4.2Employer Contributions.  Unless the Employer determines otherwise with respect to a Participant, each Participant shall have a fully 100% vested and nonforfeitable interest in his or her Employer Matching Contributions and Employer Non-elective Contributions when such contributions are credited to Participant’s Account.

ARTICLE V DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1Time and Form of Payment.

(a)Distribution Sub-Accounts.  Each Participant may elect, pursuant to Section 5.2, that such Participant’s Account shall be divided into Distribution Sub-Accounts for the purpose of

6

the Participant making separate elections in accordance with this Article V concerning time and form of payment with respect to each Distribution Sub-Account.  The maximum number of Distribution Sub-Accounts will be specified by the Committee or its delegate from time to time.  If an election under this Section 5.1(a) is not timely received from a Participant, then such Participant’s Account shall be deemed to be a single Distribution Sub-Account for purposes of the Plan.

(b)Time of Payment.  This Section 5.1(b) shall apply, except to the extent another subsection of this Section 5.1 or Section 5.3 is applicable.  The normal date on which payment of a Participant’s Distribution Sub-Accounts shall be made or commence is the January that next follows the Participant’s Separation from Service (the default time of payment).  However, each Participant may elect, pursuant to Section 5.2, that any of such Participant’s Distribution Sub-Accounts shall instead be paid (or installments shall commence), as follows:

(i)  in the January of the calendar year specified by the Participant (which calendar year may not be later than the year during which the Participant attains age 70); or

(ii)  on the earlier of the normal payment date or the January of the calendar year specified by the Participant (which calendar year may not be later than the year during which the Participant attains age 70).

The Committee shall determine the payment date within the parameters required by the Plan.  A payment that is made after the earliest date payment could have been made, but by the later of the last day of the Participant’s taxable year that includes the earliest date payment could have been made, or by the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the earliest date payment could have been made, shall be treated as having been made on the earliest date payment could have been made.

Any Participant election that specifies a date that does not comply with the Plan will be deemed to be an election of the nearest permitted date.  For example, if a Participant were to elect to receive a lump sum at the later of the January after Separation from Service or January 2020 and such Participant attains age 70 in 2019, such election will be reformed to be to receive the lump sum at the later of the January following Separation from Service or January  2019.

(c)Normal Form of Payment.  This Section 5.1(c) shall apply, except to the extent another subsection of this Section 5.1 or Section 5.3 is applicable.  The normal form of payment of a Participant’s Distribution Sub-Accounts shall be a single lump sum payment (the default form of payment) equal to the value of each of the Participant’s Distribution Sub-Accounts as of the most recent Valuation Date that precedes the payment date.  However, a Participant may elect, pursuant to Section 5.2, that payment of any Distribution Sub-Account shall be made in annual installments over a period elected by the Participant that is not less than 1 nor more than 10 years.  Installments will commence following Separation from Service only if the Participant is at least age 50 and the balance of all Distribution Sub-Accounts is at least $100,000.00, both determined as of the Separation from Service.  If a Participant does not satisfy, as of such Participant’s Separation from Service, the applicable age and Distribution Sub-Account balance requirement to commence installments, all of the balance of the Distribution Sub-Accounts from which installments had not commenced prior to Separation from Service will be paid in a lump sum at the time provided herein.  If installments commenced prior to Separation from Service from a Distribution Sub-

7

Account, then such installments shall continue after Separation from Service regardless of age or balance.  Each installment payment shall equal the quotient resulting from dividing the value of the Participant’s applicable Distribution Sub-Account as of the most recent Valuation Date that precedes the date the installment is to be paid by the sum of 1 plus the number of installments to be paid after the current installment.  Any installments shall be paid annually during January of each year an installment is due.

(d)Death.  Upon the death of the Participant before distribution of the Participant’s entire Account (whether employed or not at the time of death), the Participant’s Account shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary as soon as reasonably practical following the Participant’s death, but not later than the 90th day following the Participant’s death in a single lump sum equal to the value of the Participant’s Account as of the most recent Valuation Date preceding the payment.

(e)Disability.  If a Participant becomes Disabled prior to or coincident with Separation from Service and prior to the time payment of all of the Participant’s Distribution Sub-Accounts is to be made or commenced pursuant to Section 5.1(b), the Participant’s Distribution Sub-Accounts with respect to which distribution has not commenced shall be paid in the same manner as in Section 5.1(c), except that the age requirement for installment distributions shall not apply, and distribution shall be made or commenced as soon as reasonably practical following the determination of Disability, but not later than the 90th day following such determination.  Payment of any Distribution Sub-Account with respect to which distribution had commenced prior to the time the Participant became Disabled shall continue as scheduled.

(f)Change of Control Event.  Each Participant may elect, within the time period specified by Section 5.2(a), that any Distribution Sub-Account shall be paid in a single lump sum as soon as reasonably practical following, but no later than ninety days following, the earlier of (i) Separation from Service and (ii) either (1) the occurrence of a Change of Control Event or (2) 18 months following the occurrence of a Change of Control Event.  Such payment shall equal the value of the Participant’s Account as of the most recent Valuation Date preceding the payment.  If an election is not made under this Section 5.1(f), then payment shall be made in accordance with the other Plan provisions.

(g)Committee Discretion.  The Committee in its sole and absolute discretion may revise, remove or add any restriction on time or form payment, including limits on elections with respect to any Distribution Sub-Account, prior to the deadline for the initial election under Section 5.2(a) to be received from the Participant.  Such Committee action must be in writing and may be set forth in distribution election form materials approved by the Committee.  Any such Committee action shall be deemed to be a permitted amendment to the Plan.

5.2Elections Regarding Time and Form of Payment.  A Participant’s elections regarding the time and form of payment of each Distribution Sub-Account shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.2.

(a)Initial Elections.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Participant’s election of the time and form of payment, pursuant to Sections 5.1(b), (c), (e) and (f), must be received by the Committee no later than before the deadline set by the Committee, which may not be later than date the Participant’s election to make a Compensation Deferral Contribution to which the time and form of payment election will apply becomes irrevocable.  If a time and form

8

of payment election is not timely received by the Committee, payment shall be made as if no election has been made.  An election of time and form of payment shall become irrevocable as of the time determined by the Committee which shall not be later than the deadline for making such election, except as set forth in Section 5.2(b).

(b)Change in Elections.  A Participant may elect to change the timing or form of distribution only in accordance with this Section 5.2(b).  Any election under this Section 5.2(b) must comply with Code Section 409A and the guidance issued by the Department of the Treasury with respect to the application of Code Section 409A.  Except as permitted by Section 5.3, a Participant may not elect to accelerate the date payment is to be made or commenced.  A Participant may elect to delay the time payment is to be made or commenced and may change the form of payment from lump sum to installments, or vice versa, only if the following conditions are met:

(i) the election is received by the Committee not less than 12 months before the date payment would have otherwise been made or commenced without regard to this election;

(ii) the election shall not take effect until at least twelve 12 months after the date on which the election is received by the Committee; and

(iii) except in the case of elections relating to payment on account of death or Disability, payment pursuant to the election shall not be made or commenced sooner than 5 years from the date payment would have otherwise been made or commenced without regard to this election.

For purposes of application of Code Section 409A to this provision, installments shall be treated as a single payment.

5.3Unforeseeable Emergency.  A Participant may request that the Committee accelerate payment due to the occurrence of an “unforeseeable emergency” as defined by, and to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(3).

5.4Withholding.  The Company may determine, withhold and report the amount of any foreign, federal, state, or local taxes as the Company determines may be required to cover any taxes for which the Company may be liable with respect to any payment under the Plan.  The Company shall have the authority, duty and power to reduce any benefit payable pursuant to the Plan by the amount of any foreign, federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld by the Company under applicable law with respect to such payment of benefits, and if required by law, the Participant’s share of Federal Insurance Contributions Act taxes, and any other employment taxes.  The Company may in accordance with and to the extent it is able under the laws of the jurisdiction with respect to which a tax is owed, deduct the relevant amount from other earnings payable to the Participant or beneficiary.  The Company shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from future wages of a Participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to a Participant from the Company), including all payments under the Plan, or make other arrangements for the collection of all legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all foreign, federal, state, or local, tax withholding and employment-related tax requirements.

9

5.5Distributions to Specified Employees.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is a “Specified Employee” as of the date of Separation from Service, no portion of his or her Account shall be distributed on account of a Separation from Service before the earlier of (a) the date which is 6 months after the date of Separation from Service and (b) the date of death of the Participant.  A “Specified Employee” is a key employee, as defined under Code Section 416(i), without regard to paragraph (5) thereof and as otherwise defined in Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(i).  Amounts that would have been paid during the delay will be adjusted for earnings and losses and paid on the first business day following the end of the 6 month delay.

PART II

A Participant may elect to withdraw all of the Grandfathered Amounts.  In the event of such elective withdrawal of Grandfathered Amounts, the Participant shall receive a distribution of 90% of the Grandfathered Amounts in the Participant’s Account and forfeit the remaining 10%.

6.9Distribution Upon Termination by Corporate Successor.  The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Company or by the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with any other corporation or other entity, but the Plan shall be continued after such sale, merger or consolidated only if and to the extent that the transferee, purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan.  In the event that the Plan is not continued by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the Plan shall terminate and the Grandfathered Amounts shall be distributed to the Participant in a single lump sum payment within 30 days of such termination.

PART III
PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO
GRANDFATHERED AND NON-GRANDFATHERED AMOUNTS

This Part III applies for all purposes of the Plan, including with respect to Grandfathered Amounts and amounts due under the Plan that are not Grandfathered Amounts.

ARTICLE VII
INVESTMENTS AND PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

7.1Investments.  The Company’s Employee Benefits Investment Committee (the “Investment Committee”) shall select the deemed investments available with respect to the Participant’s interests in the Plan.  Each Participant shall select, in accordance with the rules and procedures established by the Investment Committee, the method of hypothetically investing the Participant’s Account and Grandfathered Amount.  The Investment Committee may permit Participants to designate different deemed investments for each Distribution Sub-Account.  Transfers among deemed investments and changes in investment elections may be made only in accordance with the rules, procedures and limitations established by the Investment Committee.

7.2Company Stock. Notwithstanding Section 7.1, phantom shares of Company common stock (“Company Stock”) shall be an investment available for selection by Participants.  If Company Stock is selected by a Participant, then the number of shares of Company Stock that equals the phantom shares credited under the Plan may be deposited in the trust described in Section 7.4 below.  The Company Stock may be acquired by the trust through the Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. 2016 Stock Plan, or any subsequent stock plan adopted by the Company that allows for such.  An account under the Plan (“Participant’s Company Stock Account’) shall be established for the Participant for the number of shares of phantom Company Stock to be credited to the Participant.  The Participant’s Company Stock Account shall be credited with dividends paid on the shares of Company Stock credited to the Participant’s Company Stock Account.  Such dividends shall be reinvested in the Company Stock Account in a manner similar to Compensation Deferral Contributions.  Upon distribution to a Participant, amounts credited to a Participant’s Company Stock Account shall be paid in Company Stock.  If installment payments are made, each distribution shall include Company Stock in proportion to the Company Stock credited to the Participant’s Account.

7.3Accounting. Separate accounting shall be maintained for each Participant’s Account and Grandfathered Amounts.  Each Participant’s Account and Grandfathered Amount shall be adjusted for Compensation Deferral Contributions, Employer Matching Contributions, Employer Non-elective Contributions and earnings and losses, to the extent applicable.

12

7.4Funding. The Company, by action of the Compensation Committee, may establish one or more “rabbi” trusts to hold Company Stock acquired pursuant to Section 7.2 above.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the existence of any trust, or any authority granted by the Company to a Participant to change the investment of any rabbi trust or Company assets, the Plan shall be unfunded and the Participants in the Plan shall be no more than general, unsecured creditors of the Employer with regard to benefits payable pursuant to the Plan.  Any such trust(s) shall be subject to all the provisions of the Plan, shall be property of the Company until distributed, and shall be subject to the Company’s general, unsecured creditors and judgment creditors.  Any such trust(s) shall not be deemed to be collateral security for fulfilling any obligation of the Employer to the Participants.  Except to the extent otherwise determined or directed by the Board or Compensation Committee, the Company’s policy related to deposits and withdrawals from any trust(s), and the terms of any trust(s), shall be determined by the Investment Committee.

ARTICLE VIII
ADMINISTRATION

8.1Plan Administrator.  The operation of the Plan shall be under the exclusive supervision of the Committee.  It shall be a principal duty of the Committee to see that the Plan is carried out in accordance with its terms, and for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled to participate in the Plan without discrimination.  The Committee shall have full and exclusive power to administer and interpret the Plan in all of its details; subject, however, to the requirements of ERISA and all pertinent provisions of the Code.  For this purpose, the Committee’s powers will include, but will not be limited to, the following authority, in addition to all other powers provided by the Plan:

(a)  to make and enforce such rules and regulations as the Committee deems necessary or proper for the efficient administration of the Plan;

(b)  to interpret the Plan, the Committee’s interpretations thereof in good faith to be final, conclusive and binding on all persons claiming benefits under the Plan;

(c)  to decide all questions concerning the Plan and the eligibility of any person to participate in the Plan and to receive benefits provided under the Plan;

(d)  to approve and authorize the payment of benefits;

(e)  to appoint such agents, counsel, accountants and consultants as may be required to assist in administering the Plan; and

(f)  to allocate and delegate the Committee’s fiduciary responsibilities under the Plan and to designate another person to carry out any of the Committee’s fiduciary responsibilities under the Plan, provide that any such allocation, delegation or designation shall, to the extent applicable, be in accordance with ERISA Section 405.

No Committee member shall be involved in a decision that only affects that member’s benefit under the Plan, if any.  The Committee may delegate any of its powers to any number of other persons.  Committee determinations (or those of the Committee’s delegate or agent) may be memorialized and reflected in communications and forms provided to Participants in lieu of Committee meeting minutes.

13

8.2Claims.  It is the intent of the Company that benefits payable under the Plan shall be payable without the Participant having to complete or submit any claim forms.  However, a Participant who believes he or she is entitled to a payment under the Plan may submit a claim for payments in writing to the Company.  A claim for benefits under the Plan shall be made in writing by the Participant, or, if applicable the Participant’s executor or administrator or authorized representative, (collectively, the “Claimant”) to the Committee.

8.3Claim Denials; Claim Appeals. If a claim for benefits under the Plan is denied, the Claimant shall be notified, in writing, within 60 days (45 days in the case of a claim due to Participant’s Disability) after the claim is filed.  The notice shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and shall set forth:  (i) the specific reason(s) for the denial; (ii) specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation as to why such information is necessary; and (iv) an explanation of the Plan’s appeal procedure.

Within 60 days (or within 180 days in the case of a claim due to Participant’s Disability) after receipt of the above material, the Claimant shall have a reasonable opportunity to appeal the claim denial to the Committee for a full and fair review.  The Claimant may: (i) request a review upon written notice to the Committee; (ii) upon request and free of charge, review and receive copies of pertinent documents; and (iii) submit issues and comments in writing.  Such review shall take into account all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant regarding the claim without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial determination.

A decision by the Committee shall be made not later than 60 days (or within 45 days in the case of a claim due to Participant’s Disability) after receipt of a request for review, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which event a decision should be rendered as soon as possible, but in no event later than 120 days (or within 90 days in the case of a claim due to Participant’s Disability) after such receipt.  The decision of the Committee shall be written and shall include specific reasons for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, with specific references to the pertinent Plan provision on which the decision is based.

8.4Claims Limitations and Exhaustion.  No claim shall be considered under these procedures unless it is filed with the Committee within 1  year after the claimant knew (or reasonably should have known) of the principal facts on which the claims is based.  Every untimely claim shall be denied by the Committee without regard to the merits of the claim.  No legal action (whether arising under ERISA Section 502 or ERISA Section 510 or under any other statute or non-statutory law) may be brought by any claimant on any matter pertaining to the Plan unless the legal action is commenced in the proper forum before the earlier of: (i) 2 years after the claimant knew (or reasonably should have known) of the principal facts on which the claim is based, or (ii) 90 days after the claimant has exhausted the procedures outlined in Section 8.3.  Knowledge of all facts that a Participant knew (or reasonably should have known) shall be imputed to each claimant who is or claims to be a beneficiary of the Participant (or otherwise claims to derive an entitlement by reference to a Participant) for the purpose of

14

applying the 1 year and 2 year periods.  The exhaustion of the procedures outlined in Section 8.3 is mandatory for resolving every claim and dispute arising under the Plan.  No claimant shall be permitted to commence any legal action relating to any such claim or dispute unless a timely claim has been filed under the procedures outline in Section 8.3 and those procedures have been exhausted and in any legal action all explicit and implicit determinations by the Committee shall be afforded the maximum deference permitted by law.

ARTICLE IX
AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION

9.1Amendment or Termination.  The Compensation Committee reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at its sole and absolute discretion.  Any such amendment or termination shall be made pursuant to a resolution of the Compensation Committee and shall be effective as of the date of such resolution unless the resolution specifies a different effective date.

9.2Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall directly or indirectly reduce the balance of any Account held hereunder as of the later of the adoption or effective date of such amendment or termination, or make any material modification related to any Grandfathered Amounts.  The Participant’s Account and Grandfathered Amounts will continue to share in earnings and losses until complete distribution of the Account.  Upon and following the occurrence of a Change of Control Event, no amendment or termination of the Plan may reduce any Participant’s rights with respect to his or her Account as of the later of the adoption or effective date of such amendment or termination without such Participant’s consent.  Upon termination of the Plan, distribution of amounts credited to the Accounts (which does not include Grandfathered Amounts) shall be made to Participants and their Beneficiaries in one of the following manners elected by the Company:

(a)In the manner and at the time otherwise provided under the Plan; or

(b)In a lump sum payable at a time permitted by Code Section 409A, provided that all conditions of Code Section 409A are and will be satisfied.

ARTICLE X
409A COMPLIANCE

The Plan is intended to comply with the provisions of Code Section 409A and the final regulations promulgated thereunder, except as otherwise provided herein (Code Section 409A and the regulations and other guidance issued with respect thereto, may be referred to as “409A”).  With respect to amounts other than Grandfathered Amounts, the Plan shall be interpreted, operated and applied to comply with 409A so as not to subject any Participant to the additional tax, interest or penalties which may be imposed under 409A and not to cause inclusion in any Participant’s income of a Participant’s Account (and any related penalty and interest) until such amount or amounts are actually distributed to such Participant (which additional tax, interest, penalties or income inclusion shall individually and in the aggregate be referred to as “Adverse 409A Consequence” or “Adverse 409A Consequences”).  With respect to Grandfathered Amounts, the Plan shall be interpreted and administered to prevent 409A from applying to Grandfathered Amounts; this shall include, but not be limited to, avoiding a material modification of the terms that were applicable to the Grandfathered Amounts on October 3, 2004 under the Prior Plan.  However,

15

it is understood that 409A is ambiguous in certain respects.  The Committee and Company will attempt in good faith not to take any action, and will attempt in good faith to refrain from taking any action, that would result in the imposition of tax, interest and/or penalties upon any Participant under 409A.  None of the Committee, the Company, their employees, contractors and agents, the Board, each member of the Board nor any Plan fiduciary (the “Released Parties”) shall in any way be liable for, and by participating in the Plan, each Participant automatically releases the Released Parties from any liability due to, any failure to follow the requirements of 409A, and no Participant shall be entitled to any damages related to any such failure even though the Plan requires certain actions to be taken in conformance with 409A.  The Company may delay any payment to the extent the delay would not result in any Adverse 409A Consequence.
