PARTICIPATION AND ELIGIBILITY FOR BENEFITS

Section 3.01 Participation. Each Eligible Employee in the Plan who incurs an Involuntary Termination and who satisfies all of the conditions of Section 3.02 shall be eligible to receive the Severance Benefits described in the Plan. An Eligible Employee shall not be eligible to receive any other severance benefits from the Company or Subsidiary on account of an Involuntary Termination, unless otherwise provided in the Plan. In addition, any Eligible Employee who is a party to an employment agreement with the Company pursuant to which such Eligible Employee is entitled to severance benefits shall be ineligible to participate in the Plan.

Section 3.02 Conditions.

(a) Eligibility for any Severance Benefits is expressly conditioned on the execution or agreement to the following: (i) execution by the Participant of a Release in the form provided by the Company no later than 21 days following delivery of the Release to the Participant (or such longer period as may be agreed between the Participant and the Company); and (ii) compliance by the Participant with all the terms and conditions of such Release; If the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the Participant has not fully complied with any of the terms of the agreement and/or Release, the Company may deny Severance Benefits not yet in pay status or discontinue the payment of the Participant’s Severance Benefit and may require the Participant, by providing written notice of such repayment obligation to the Participant, to repay any portion of the Severance Benefit already received under the Plan. If the Company notifies a Participant that repayment of all or any portion of the Severance Benefit received under the Plan is required, such amounts shall be repaid within thirty (30) calendar days after the date the written notice is sent. Any remedy under this subsection 3.02(a) shall be in addition to, and not in place of, any other remedy, including injunctive relief, that the Company may have.

(b) An Eligible Employee will not be eligible to receive Severance Benefits under any of the following circumstances:

(i) The Eligible Employee voluntarily terminates employment:

(ii) The Eligible Employee resigns employment before the job-end date specified by the Employer or while the Employer still desires the Eligible Employee’s services;

(iii) The Eligible Employee’s employment is terminated for Cause;

(iv) The Eligible Employee voluntarily retires;

(v) The Eligible Employee’s employment is terminated due to the Eligible Employee’s death or Permanent Disability;

(vi) The Eligible Employee does not return to work within six (6) months of the onset of an approved leave of absence, other than a personal, educational or military leave and/or as otherwise required by applicable statute;

(vii) The Eligible Employee does not return to work within three (3) months of the onset of a personal or educational leave of absence;

(viii) The Eligible Employee does not satisfy the conditions for Severance set forth in Section 3.02.

(ix) The Eligible Employee continues in employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or has the opportunity to continue in employment in the same or in an Alternative Position with the Company or a Subsidiary; or

(x) The Eligible Employee’s employment with the Employer terminates as a result of a sale of stock or assets of the Employer, merger, consolidation, joint venture or a sale or outsourcing of a business unit or function, or other transaction, and the Eligible Employee accepts employment, or has the opportunity to continue employment in an Alternative Position, with the purchaser, joint venture, or other acquiring or outsourcing entity, or a related entity of either the Company or the acquiring entity. The payment of Severance Benefits in the circumstances described in this subsection (x) would result in a windfall to the Eligible Employee, which is not the intention of the Plan.

(c) The Plan Administrator has the sole discretion to determine an Eligible Employee’s eligibility to receive Severance Benefits.

(d) An Eligible Employee returning from approved military leave will be eligible for Severance Benefits if: (i) he/she is eligible for reemployment under the provisions of the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA); (ii) his/her pre-military leave job is eliminated; and (iii) the Employer’s circumstances are changed so as to make reemployment in another position impossible or unreasonable, or re-employment would create an undue hardship for the Employer. If the Eligible Employee returning from military leave qualifies for Severance Benefits, his/her severance benefits will be calculated as if he/she had remained continuously employed from the date he/she began his/her military leave. The Eligible Employee must also satisfy any other relevant conditions for payment set forth in this Section, including execution of a Release.

ARTICLE IV

DETERMINATION OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS

Section 4.01 Amount of Severance Benefits Upon Involuntary Termination. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.05, the Severance Benefits to be provided to an Eligible Employee who incurs an Involuntary Termination and is determined to be eligible for Severance Benefits shall be as follows:

(a) Notice Pay. Each Eligible Employee who meets the eligibility requirements for a Severance Benefit under Section 3.01 shall receive 30 calendar days notice as a Notice Period. In the event that the Company determines that a Participant’s last day of work shall be prior to the end of his or her Notice Period, such Employee shall be entitled to pay in lieu of notice for the balance of such Notice Period. Notice Pay paid to an Eligible Employee shall be in addition to, and not offset against, the Severance Benefits the Participant may be entitled to receive under this Article IV. An Eligible Employee who does not sign, or who revokes his or her signature on, a Release shall only be eligible for Notice Pay. Unless otherwise permitted by the applicable plan documents or laws, an Eligible Employee will not be eligible to apply for short-term disability, long-term disability and/or workers’ compensation during the Notice Period, or anytime thereafter. Notice pay shall be paid in accordance with Article V.

(b) Salary Continuation Benefits.

(i) Salary continuation shall be provided during the Severance Period applicable to the Participant as set forth under the benefits schedule appended to the Plan. During the Severance Period, the Participant shall receive his or her Base Salary (net of deductions and tax withholdings, as applicable) in equal installments over the Severance Period, per normal payroll cycles. The salary continuation payment shall commence no earlier than the end of the revocation period applicable to the Release and shall be paid in accordance with Article V.

(ii) The Participant shall also receive a cash payment equal to his or her Annual Bonus during the Severance Period applicable to the Participant as set forth under the benefits schedule appended to the Plan. Such bonus payment shall be paid to the Participant in equal installments over the Severance Period (e.g., 12 month, 18 months or 24 months). The bonus payment shall be paid at the same time as the Salary Continuation Benefits in Article V.

(c) Bonus. Participant may be eligible for a cash payment equal to his or her pro rated annual bonus for the year in which Participant’s Separation from Service Date occurs, subject to the discretion of the Company and pursuant to the terms set forth in the applicable incentive plans. Bonus payments shall be paid at the same time as the Salary Continuation Benefits in Article V.

(d) Medical, Dental and Health Care Reimbursement Account Benefits. The Participant shall continue to be eligible to participate in the medical, dental and Health Care Reimbursement Account coverage in effect at the date of his or her termination (or generally comparable coverage) for himself or herself and, where applicable, his or her spouse and

dependents, as the same may be changed from time to time for employees of the Company generally, as if Participant had continued in employment during the twelve-month period following the participant’s Separation from Service Date (the “Coverage Period”). The Participant shall be responsible for the payment of the employee portion of the medical, dental and Health Care Reimbursement Account contributions that are required during the Severance Period and such contributions shall be made within the time period and in the amounts that other employees are required to pay to the Company for similar coverage. The Participant’s failure to pay the applicable contributions shall result in the cessation of the applicable medical and dental coverage for the Participant and his or her spouse or domestic partner and dependents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, in the event that a Participant commences employment with another company at any time during the Severance Period, the Participant may cease receiving coverage under the Company’s medical and dental plans. Within thirty (30) days of Participant’s commencement of employment with another company, Participant shall provide the Company written notice of such employment and provide information to the Company regarding the medical and dental benefits provided to Participant by his or her new employer. The COBRA Continuation Coverage Period under section 4980B of the Code shall run concurrently with the Severance Period.

(e) Equity Awards. The treatment of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other outstanding equity awards will be governed by the applicable equity award agreements and plan documents.

(f) Outplacement Services. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, pay the cost (which shall not exceed $20,000) of outplacement services for the Participant at the outplacement agency that the Company regularly uses for such purpose; provided, however, that the period of outplacement shall not exceed twelve (12) months from Participant’s Separation from Service Date. The Company shall pay the cost of outplacement services for the Participant for a period of up to twelve (12) months from Participant’s Separation from Service Date at either (i) the outplacement agency that the Company regularly uses for such purpose, or (ii) provided the Senior Vice President — Human Resources provides prior approval, at an outplacement agency selected by the Participant.

Section 4.02 Voluntary Termination; Termination for Death or Permanent Disability. If the Eligible Employee’s employment terminates on account of (i) the Eligible Employee’s Voluntary Resignation, (ii) death, or (iii) Permanent Disability, then the Eligible Employee shall not be entitled to receive Severance Benefits under this Plan and shall be entitled only to those benefits (if any) as may be available under the Company’s then-existing benefit plans and policies at the time of such termination.

Section 4.03 Termination for Cause. If any Eligible Employee’s employment terminates on account of termination by the Company for Cause, the Eligible Employee shall not be entitled to receive Severance Benefits under this Plan and shall be entitled only to those benefits that are legally required to be provided to the Eligible Employee. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if the Committee or the Plan Administrator determines that an Eligible Employee has engaged in conduct that constitutes Cause at any time prior to the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service Date, any Severance Benefit payable to the Eligible Employee under Section 4.01 of the Plan shall immediately cease, and the Eligible Employee shall be required to return any Severance Benefits paid to the Eligible Employee prior

to such determination. The Company may withhold paying Severance Benefits under the Plan pending resolution of an inquiry that could lead to a finding resulting in Cause and any such payment that was withheld and which is subsequently determined to be payable shall be paid to the Participant within ninety (90) days after the date of the final and binding resolution of the inquiry.

Section 4.04 Reduction of Severance Benefits. With respect to amounts paid under the Plan that are not subject to Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the Plan Administrator reserves the right to make deductions in accordance with applicable law for any monies owed to the Company by the Participant or the value of Company property that the Participant has retained in his/her possession. With respect to amounts paid under the Plan that are subject to Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the Plan Administrator reserves the right to make deductions in accordance with applicable law for any monies owed to the Company by the Participant or the value of the Company property that the Participant has retained in his/her possession; provided, however, that such deductions cannot exceed $5,000 in the aggregate.

Section 4.05 Modification of Severance Benefits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Senior Vice President, Human Resources (or her/his successor) shall have the discretion (i) to modify the benefits otherwise available to a Plan Participant under Section 4.01 as she/he deems appropriate, provided that in no event may the exercise of such discretion result in an increase in the benefits that would otherwise have been payable to the Participant under Section 4.01, and/or (ii) to modify the timing of the payment of such benefits, provided that such benefits are not otherwise subject to Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder. If benefits payable under the Plan are subject to Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the timing of such payments may not be altered and must be paid in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

ARTICLE V

METHOD AND DURATION OF SEVERANCE BENEFIT PAYMENTS

Section 5.01 Method of Payment. The Severance Benefit to which a Participant is entitled, as determined pursuant to Section 4.01(a) and (b), shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices over the Severance Period. The annual bonus payable pursuant to Section 4.01(c) shall be paid at the time set forth in the TE Connectivity Annual Incentive Plan. In no event will interest be credited on the unpaid balance for which a Participant may become eligible. Payment shall be made by mailing to the last address provided by the Participant to the Company or such other reasonable method as determined by the Plan Administrator. In general, the initial payments shall be made as promptly as practicable after the Participant’s Separation from Service Date, the execution of the Release required under Section 3.02, and the expiration of the required revocation period specified in the Release. All payments of Severance Benefits are subject to applicable federal, state and local taxes and withholdings. In the event of the Participant’s death prior to the completion of all payments being made, the remaining payments shall be paid to the Participant’s estate in a single lump sum payment within sixty (60) days following the Participant’s death.

Section 5.02 Other Arrangements. The Severance Benefits under this Plan are not additive or cumulative to severance or termination benefits that a Participant might also be entitled to receive under the terms of a written employment agreement, a severance agreement or any other arrangement with the Employer. As a condition of participating in the Plan, the Eligible Employee must expressly agree that this Plan supersedes all prior agreements, and sets forth the entire Severance Benefit the Eligible Employee is entitled to while an Eligible Employee in the Plan. The provisions of this Plan may provide for payments to the Eligible Employee under certain compensation or bonus plans under circumstances where such plans would not provide for payment thereof. It is the specific intention of the Company that the provisions of this Plan shall supersede any provisions to the contrary in such plans, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and such plans shall be deemed to be have been amended to correspond with this Plan without further action by the Company or the Board.

Section 5.03 Code Section 409A.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, if required by Code Section 409A and if a Participant is a Key Employee, no Benefits shall be paid to the Participant during the Postponement Period. If a Participant is a Key Employee and payment of Benefits is required to be delayed for the Postponement Period under Code Section 409A, the accumulated amounts withheld on account of Code Section 409A shall be paid in a lump sum payment within 30 days after the end of the Postponement Period. If the Participant dies during the Postponement Period prior to the payment of Benefits, the amounts withheld on account of Code Section 409A shall be paid to the Participant’s estate within 60 days after the Participant’s death.

(b) This Agreement is intended to meet the requirements of the “short-term deferral” exception, the “separation pay” exception and other exceptions under Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if required by Code Section 409A, payments may only be made under this Plan upon an

event and in a manner permitted by Code Section 409A, to the extent applicable. For purposes of Code Section 409A, the right to a series of payments under the Plan shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under the Plan shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of section 409A of the Code. In no event may a Participant designate the year of payment for any amounts payable under the Plan.

Section 5.04 Termination of Eligibility for Benefits.

(a) All Eligible Employees shall cease to be eligible to participate in the Plan, and all Severance Benefit payments payable to a Participant shall cease upon the occurrence of the earlier of:

(i) Subject to Article VIII, termination or modification of the Plan; or

(ii) Completion of payment to the Participant of the Severance Benefit for which the Participant is eligible under Article IV.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have the right to cease all Severance Benefits (except as otherwise required by law) and to recover any payments previously made to the Participant should the Participant at any time breach the Participant’s undertakings under the terms of the Plan, the Release the Participant executed to obtain the Severance Benefits under the Plan or the confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disparagement provisions of Article VI.

ARTICLE VI

CONFIDENTIALITY, COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE AND NOT TO SOLICIT

Section 6.01 Confidential Information.

This Section 6.02 shall not prevent the Participant from owning not more than one percent of the total shares of all classes of stock outstanding of any publicly held entity engaged in such business, nor will it restrict the Participant from rendering services to charitable organizations, as such term is defined in section 501(c) of the Code.

Section 6.03 Non-Solicitation. During the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary and for the two (2) year period thereafter, the Participant agrees that he or she will not, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, knowingly solicit, aid or induce (i) any employee of TE Connectivity Ltd. or any Subsidiary, as defined by the Company, to leave such employment in order to accept employment with or render services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity unaffiliated with TE Connectivity Ltd. or knowingly take any action to materially assist or aid any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in identifying or hiring any such employee, or

(ii) any customer of TE Connectivity Ltd. or any Subsidiary to purchase goods or services then sold by TE Connectivity Ltd. or any Subsidiary from another person, firm, corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other persons or entity in identifying or soliciting any such customer.

Section 6.04 Non-Disparagement. Each of the Participant and the Company (for purposes hereof, the Company shall mean only the executive officers and directors thereof and not any other employees) agrees not to make any statements that disparage the other party, or in the case of the Company, TE Connectivity Ltd. or its Subsidiaries, their respective affiliates, employees, officers, directors, products or services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, statements made in the course of sworn testimony in administrative, judicial or arbitral proceedings (including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings) shall not be subject to this Section 6.04.

Section 6.05 Reasonableness. In the event the provisions of this Article VI shall ever be deemed to exceed the time, scope or geographic limitations permitted by applicable laws, then such provisions shall be reformed to the maximum time, scope or geographic limitations, as the case may be, permitted by applicable laws.

(a) By participating in the Plan, the Participant acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Article VI are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its affiliates, that the Company would not have established this Plan in the absence of such restrictions, and that any violation of any provision of this Article will result in irreparable injury to the Company. By agreeing to participate in the Plan, the Participant represents that his or her experience and capabilities are such that the restrictions contained in this Article VI will not prevent the Participant from obtaining employment or otherwise earning a living at the same general level of economic benefit as is currently the case. The Participant further represents and acknowledges that (i) he or she has been advised by the Company to consult his or her own legal counsel in respect of this Plan, and (ii) that he or she has had full opportunity, prior to agreeing to participate in this Plan, to review thoroughly this Plan with his or her counsel.

(b) The Participant agrees that the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages, as well as an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from any violation of this Article VI, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled. In the event that any of the provisions of this Article VI should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law.

(c) The Participant irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees that any suit, action or other legal proceeding arising out of this Article VI, including without limitation, any action commenced by the Company for preliminary and permanent injunctive relief or other equitable relief, may be brought in the United States District Court for the District of New York, or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general

CLAIMS PROCEDURES

Section 10.01 Claim. Each Participant under this Plan may contest only the administration of the Severance Benefits awarded by completing and filing with the Plan Administrator a written request for review in the manner specified by the Plan Administrator. No appeal is permissible as to an Eligible Employee’s eligibility for or a Participant’s amount of the Severance Benefit, which are decisions made solely within the discretion of the Company, and the Committee acting on behalf of the Company. No person may bring an action for any alleged wrongful denial of Plan benefits in a court of law unless the claims procedures described in this Article X are exhausted and a final determination is made by the Plan Administrator and/or the Named Appeals Fiduciary. If an Eligible Employee or Participant or other interested party challenges a decision by the Plan Administrator and/or Named Appeals Fiduciary, a review by the court of law will be limited to the facts, evidence and issues presented to the Plan Administrator during the claims procedure set forth in this Article X. Facts and evidence that become known to the terminated Eligible Employee or Participant or other interested person after having exhausted the claims procedure must be brought to the attention of the Plan Administrator for reconsideration of the claims administrator. Issues not raised with the Plan Administrator and/or Named Appeals Fiduciary will be deemed waived.

Section 10.02 Initial Claim. Before the date on which payment of a Severance Benefit commences, each such application must be supported by such information as the Plan Administrator deems relevant and appropriate. In the event that any claim relating to the administration of Severance Benefits is denied in whole or in part, the terminated Participant or his or her beneficiary (“claimant”) whose claim has been so denied shall be notified of such denial in writing by the Plan Administrator within ninety (90) days after the receipt of the claim for benefits. This period may be extended an additional ninety (90) days if the Plan Administrator determines such extension is necessary and the Plan Administrator provides notice of extension to the claimant prior to the end of the initial ninety (90) day period. The notice advising of the denial shall specify the following: (i) the reason or reasons for denial, (ii) make specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the determination was based, (iii) describe any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim (explaining why such material or information is needed), and (iv) describe the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review. If it is determined that payment is to be made, any such payment shall be made within ninety (90) days after the date by which notification is required.

Section 10.03 Appeals of Denied Administrative Claims. All appeals shall be made by the following procedure:

(a) A claimant whose claim has been denied shall file with the Plan Administrator a notice of appeal of the denial. Such notice shall be filed within sixty (60) calendar days of notification by the Plan Administrator of the denial of a claim, shall be made in writing, and shall set forth all of the facts upon which the appeal is based. Appeals not timely filed shall be barred.

(b) The Named Appeals Fiduciary shall consider the merits of the claimant’s written presentations, the merits of any facts or evidence in support of the denial of benefits, and such other facts and circumstances as the Named Appeals Fiduciary shall deem relevant.

(c) The Named Appeals Fiduciary shall render a determination upon the appealed claim which determination shall be accompanied by a written statement as to the reasons therefor. The determination shall be made to the claimant within sixty (60) days of the claimant’s request for review, unless the Names Appeals Fiduciary determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. In such case, the Named Appeals Fiduciary shall notify the claimant of the need for an extension of time to render its decision prior to the end of the initial sixty (60) day period, and the Named Appeals Fiduciary shall have an additional sixty (60) day period to make its determination. The determination so rendered shall be binding upon all parties. If the determination is adverse to the claimant, the notice shall provide (i) the reason or reasons for denial, (ii) make specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the determination was based, (iii) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to a the claimant’s claim for benefits, and (iv) state that the claimant has the right to bring an action under section 502(a) of ERISA. If the final determination is that payments shall be made, then any such payment shall be made within ninety (90) days after the date by which notification of the final determination is made.

Section 10.04 Appointment of the Named Appeals Fiduciary. The Named Appeals Fiduciary shall be the person or persons named as such by the Board or Committee, or, if no such person or persons be named, then the person or persons named by the Plan Administrator as the Named Appeals Fiduciary. Named Appeals Fiduciaries may at any time be removed by the Board or Committee, and any Named Appeals Fiduciary named by the Plan Administrator may be removed by the Plan Administrator. All such removals may be with or without cause and shall be effective on the date stated in the notice of removal. The Named Appeals Fiduciary shall be a “Named Fiduciary” within the meaning of ERISA, and unless appointed to other fiduciary responsibilities, shall have no authority, responsibility, or liability with respect to any matter other than the proper discharge of the functions of the Named Appeals Fiduciary as set forth herein.

In the event of any dispute under the provisions of this Plan, other than a dispute in which the primary relief sought is an equitable remedy such as an injunction, the parties shall have the dispute, controversy or claim settled by arbitration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (or such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by the Employer and the Participant) in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect of the American Arbitration Association, before a panel of three arbitrators, two of whom shall be selected by the Company and the Participant, respectively, and the third of whom shall be selected by the other two arbitrators. Any award entered by the arbitrators shall be final, binding and nonappealable and judgment may be entered thereon by either party in accordance with applicable law in any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration provision shall be specifically enforceable. The arbitrators shall have no authority to modify any provision of this Plan or to award a remedy for a dispute involving this Plan other than a benefit specifically provided under or by virtue of the Plan. If the Participant substantially prevails on any material issue, which is the subject of such arbitration or lawsuit, the Company shall be responsible for all of the fees of the American Arbitration Association and
