ARTICLE IX

PLAN ADMINISTRATION

9.1Administration. The Administrator (or its delegate) shall, from time to time, establish such rules, forms and procedures for the administration of the Plan as it deems appropriate. The Administrator shall have full discretionary power and authority to interpret and administer this Plan and to delegate all or a part of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The interpretation and construction of the Plan by the Administrator or its delegate, and any action taken hereunder, shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all parties in interest. Neither the Administrator nor any of its agents or employees shall 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 is made in good faith.

9.2Determination of Benefits. The Administrator shall make all determinations as to the rights to benefits under this Plan. Subject to and in compliance with the specific procedures

-16

contained in the applicable regulations under ERISA: (a) Any decision by the Administrator denying a claim by a Participant or his beneficiary for benefits under this Plan shall be stated in writing and delivered or mailed to the Participant or beneficiary; (b) each such notice shall set forth the specific reasons for the denial, written in a manner that is intended to be understandable to the claimant; and (c) the Administrator shall afford a reasonable opportunity to the Participant or beneficiary for a full and fair review of the decision denying such claim. The benefit claims procedures then in effect under Section 503 of ERISA, and any regulations thereunder, shall be followed by the Administrator in making any benefit determinations under this Plan. All interpretations, determinations and decisions of the Administrator with respect to any claim hereunder shall be made in its sole discretion and shall be final and conclusive.

9.3Expenses. Unless otherwise directed by the Employer, the expenses of administering the Plan and any Investment Account established under Section 6.1 (including any income or other taxes owing on the investments of any such account) shall be paid from the assets of the account and shall be allocated among the then existing subaccounts thereunder on a pro rata or other appropriate basis as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE X

GENERAL PROVISIONS

10.1Amendment, Suspension and Termination.

(a)The Employer reserves the right to amend the Plan at any time and from time to time. No amendment shall deprive a Participant of his or her Account hereunder determined as of the last Valuation Date preceding the amendment.

(b)The Employer reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time; provided that upon termination, no Participant shall be deprived of his or her Account hereunder

-17

determined as of the last Valuation Date preceding termination. Upon termination of the Plan, the payment of the Accounts shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Plan in effect on the date of termination (unless otherwise amended by the Employer).

10.2Nontransferability of Benefits. The rights of the Participant and any beneficiary under the Plan are not subject to the claims of their creditors and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily transferred, assigned, alienated, accelerated or encumbered. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Accounts payable under the Plan may, in the Employer’s discretion, be offset by any liability of the Participant to the Employer. An amount will be subject to offset hereunder if owed or otherwise payable by the Participant at any time and for any reason, including, but not limited to, a loan made by the Employer to the Participant, recovery of amounts due to misconduct of the Participant, or any other liability or obligation of the Participant of any type, as determined by the Employer.

10.3Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, all or part of the Participant’s Account may be distributed to an alternate payee pursuant to terms of a qualified domestic relations order within the meaning of Code section 414(p). Such distribution may be made even if the Participant is not otherwise eligible to receive a distribution at the time of payment to the alternate payee(s).

10.4Participant’s Rights Unsecured. The Plan is intended to be unfunded for purposes of both the Code and ERISA. The right of a Participant or his or her beneficiary to receive payment of the Participant’s Account hereunder shall be a general unsecured claim against the general assets of the Employer, and neither the Participant nor his or her beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any amount credited to any Investment Account or any other specific assets of the Employer. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from

-18

an Employer under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any general unsecured creditor of the Employer.

10.5Erroneous Payments. In the event that a Participant or a beneficiary receives a distribution under this Plan in excess of the amount, if any, to which he is entitled, by reason of a calculation error or otherwise, the Administrator or its delegate may, in its sole discretion, adjust future benefit payments to the Participant or the beneficiary to the extent necessary to recoup the amount which the Participant or the beneficiary received which was in excess of the amount to which he was entitled under the terms of the Plan. If the Administrator or its delegate determines, in its sole discretion, that it is not feasible or desirable to adjust future benefit payments to the Participant or beneficiary, it may require him or her to repay to the Plan the amount which is in excess of the amount to which he or she is entitled under the terms of the Plan. All amounts received by a Participant or a beneficiary under the Plan shall be deemed to be paid subject to this condition.

10.6Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, to the extent applicable.

10.7Effect on Employment Rights. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as (a) giving any Participant any right to continued employment with the Employer or otherwise modifying his or her employment with the Employer or any affiliate or (b) affecting the eligibility for, or calculation of, any benefit provided to any Participant by the Employer to the extent permitted by law. No Participant shall have the right to receive any benefit under the Plan except in accordance with the Plan’s terms.

-19

10.8Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held invalid or illegal for any reason, such event shall not affect or render invalid or unenforceable the remaining provisions of the Plan.

10.9Notice. Any notice, consent, election or demand required or permitted to be given under the provisions of this Plan shall be in writing, and shall be signed by the party giving or making the same. If such notice, consent, election or demand is to be mailed, it shall be sent by United States first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the addressee’s last known address. The date of such mailing shall be deemed the date of notice, consent, election or demand.

10.10Tax Liability. Any required federal, state or local tax withholding may be withheld from any payment made pursuant to this Plan.

10.11No Guarantee of Benefits. Nothing in this Plan shall constitute a guarantee by the Employer, the Administrator or any other person or entity that the assets of the Employer will be sufficient to pay any benefits hereunder.

10.12Incapacity of Recipient. If the Administrator shall find that any person to whom any benefits are payable hereunder is (a) unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness or accident or (b) a minor, any payment due under the Plan may be paid to the duly appointed guardian or conservator of such person or to any third party who is eligible to receive payment from the Plan for the account of such person. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Employer hereunder.

10.13Construction. Titles of articles and sections herein are for convenience of reference only and are not to be taken into account in interpreting the Plan. The singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular whenever used herein unless the context requires otherwise.
