WHEREAS, Harris Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), heretofore has adopted and maintains the Harris Corporation 2005 Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan, as amended and restated effective January 1, 2009 (the “Plan”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to Paragraph 10 of the Plan, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) has the authority to amend the Plan; and

On January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 (each such day an “Award Date”) of each year, commencing January 1, 2016, the Corporation shall credit the Harris Stock Equivalents Subaccount of each Non-Employee Director with a number of Harris Stock Equivalents (the “Non-Elective Deferred Units”) having a Fair Market Value equal to $33,750; provided, however, that for 2016, the Corporation shall credit the Harris Stock Equivalents Subaccount of each Non-Employee Director with a number of Non-Elective Deferred Units having a Fair Market Value equal to $33,750 on January 1 and October 1 and the Non-Employee Directors shall not be credited with any Non-Elective Deferred Units on April 1 and July 1.
