TIMKENSTEEL CORPORATION SAVINGS PLAN

(Effective June 30, 2014)

TIMKENSTEEL CORPORATION SAVINGS PLAN

FOR CERTAIN BARGAINING EMPLOYEES

PREAMBLE

TimkenSteel Corporation (the “Company”) establishes the TimkenSteel Corporation Savings Plan for Certain Bargaining Employees (the “Plan”) effective as of June 30, 2014.

Prior to June 30, 2014, the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of The Timken Company (“Timken”). On June 30, 2014, Timken distributed to its shareholders all of the outstanding common shares, without par value, of the Company (the “Spinoff”), and as a result the Company ceased to be a subsidiary of Timken.

Prior to the Spinoff, Timken sponsored The Timken Company Savings Plan for Certain Bargaining Associates (the “Prior Plan”). In connection with the Spinoff, the assets and liabilities of the Prior Plan attributable to the Transferred Participants, as defined below, are being spun off from the Prior Plan to this Plan, effective as of June 30, 2014, and such Transferred Participants will cease participation in the Prior Plan and become Participants in this Plan. For the purposes of the Plan, “Transferred Participants” means individuals who are participants in the Prior Plan immediately prior to the Spinoff and who: (a) are employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries as of the close of business on June 30, 2014; or (b) terminated employment with Timken and its subsidiaries prior to the Spinoff and have been designated by Timken prior to the Spinoff as eligible to participate in the Plan. For the purposes of the Plan, “Transferred Employees” means individuals who are Transferred Participants, and individuals who would otherwise be considered Transferred Participants under (a) or (b) of the previous sentence, except that they were not yet participants in the Prior Plan.

This Plan is generally effective June 30, 2014. The benefits, rights and features of the Plan for any Transferred Employees whose employment with Timken terminated prior to June 30, 2014 shall be governed by the terms and provisions of the Prior Plan as in effect on the date of such termination.

The Plan is a profit-sharing plan intended to meet the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and subsequent legislation, and the Plan and contributions are expressly conditioned upon qualification thereunder.

- 13 -

SECTION 3

PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS

3.1 PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS

Each Eligible Employee may, upon becoming a Participant, elect to have a Before-Tax Contribution made on his behalf at a rate of between one percent and seventy-five percent of his Compensation. The rate of contribution will be in increments of 1%. Such election shall be in the form of a Salary Deferral Agreement, and shall be subject to the Compensation Deferral Limit, if any, applicable to such Participant as established by the Plan Administrator from time to time for purposes of meeting the nondiscrimination tests of Section 401(k) of the Code, and, if applicable, satisfying the maximum limits described in Section 3.6 and Sections 4.6 through 4.12. As provided in Section 2, any elections made under the Prior Plan shall apply to the Plan as of the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Participant who has elected to have Before-Tax Contributions made on his behalf to this Plan and who has attained age 50 before the end of a particular calendar year shall be permitted to make catch-up contributions for such calendar year (the “Catch-Up Contributions”) in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, Section 414(v) of the Code; provided, however, that a Participant will be permitted to make Catch-Up Contributions for a pay period only to the extent that the Participant’s Catch-Up Contributions for such pay period, when added to the Participant’s other Before-Tax Contributions for such pay period, are equal to or less than 100% of the Participant’s Compensation for such pay period. Catch-Up Contributions shall not be taken into account for purposes of the provisions of the Plan implementing the required limitations of Sections 401(a)(30) and 415(c) of the Code (i.e., Sections 3.6 and 4.12, respectively). In addition, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Plan shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the requirements of Sections 401(k)(3), 401(k)(11), 410(b), or 416 of the Code, as applicable, by reason of the making of any such Catch-Up Contributions. In furtherance of, but without limiting the foregoing, (a) contributions made during a Participant’s taxable year on behalf of the Participant under a Salary Deferral Agreement (including Catch-Up Contributions) that exceed the statutory limit described in Section 3.6(a) or Section 4.12 shall be treated as Catch-Up Contributions, and (b) Catch-Up Contributions shall be permitted to be made on a payroll-by-payroll basis; provided, however, that a contribution made under a Salary Deferral Agreement may only be characterized as a Catch-Up Contribution on a Plan Year basis.

- 14 -

3.2 INCREASE OR DECREASE IN RATE OF CONTRIBUTIONS

A Participant may elect to change the rate of contributions under his Salary Deferral Agreement as of any payroll period, provided he files with the Plan Administrator in the form prescribed by the Plan Administrator a new Salary Deferral Agreement within the time frame prescribed by the Plan Administrator.

3.3 SUSPENSION AND RESUMPTION OF CONTRIBUTIONS

(a) A Participant may elect to suspend contributions, effective the next available payroll period, provided that the Participant files with the Plan Administrator, in the form prescribed by the Plan Administrator, his election to suspend within the time frame prescribed by the Plan Administrator. In the event of an election to suspend contributions, the Participant may have contributions resumed effective any subsequent payroll period, provided that he files a new Salary Deferral Agreement with the Plan Administrator within the time frame prescribed by the Plan Administrator.

(b) A Participant may not make up suspended contributions.

(c) During a period of suspension, gains and losses on the Participant’s Total Account will continue to be credited or debited on the balance of his Total Account.

If a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee but continues in the employ of the Company, Before-Tax Contributions made on his behalf shall be immediately suspended. No contributions shall be made for a Participant with respect to the period of such suspension. If the Participant again becomes an Eligible Employee, he may resume his Before-Tax Contributions by filing the appropriate form with the Plan Administrator. Resumption of contributions shall commence as of the next available payroll period following the date the appropriate form is properly filed with the Plan Administrator, or as soon as practical thereafter.

3.4 EFFECTIVE DATE OF ELECTIONS

The elections referred to in this Section 3 shall become effective with respect to the first available payroll period, in accordance with the administrative procedures established by the Plan Administrator.

3.5 ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS

(a) The Plan Administrator in accordance with a uniform and nondiscriminatory policy, shall determine whether or not a Rollover Contribution shall be accepted. Any such request shall state the amount of the Rollover Contribution and include a statement that such

- 15 -

contribution qualifies as a Rollover Contribution as defined in Section 1.43. The Plan Administrator may require the Employee to submit such other evidence and documentation as the Plan Administrator determines necessary to ensure that the contribution qualifies as a Rollover Contribution. All Rollover Contributions must be made in cash.

If a rollover is later deemed to be invalid, such invalid amount plus allowable income shall be distributed to the Participant within a reasonable time after such determination pursuant to the Code and related regulations.

(b) The Employee shall at all times have a nonforfeitable right in 100% of his Rollover Contribution Account.

(c) An Employee who makes a Rollover Contribution to the Trust Fund shall be deemed to be a Participant with respect to such amount for all purposes of the Plan, except for purposes of Sections 2.1 through 2.5, Sections 3.1 through 3.4 and Sections 4.1 through 4.12.

(d) At the time the Rollover Contribution is made to the Trust Fund, the Employee must elect to have it invested in accordance with the terms of Section 5.2.

(e) For administration and account purposes, the amounts paid to the Trust Fund in the form of Rollover Contributions and any interest earned on such amounts shall be credited to the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account, or to such other account or accounts as may be appropriate under the circumstances. In no event, however, shall any Rollover Contribution be subject to Company Matching Contributions.

(f) Unless specifically indicated to the contrary elsewhere in this Plan, the Plan shall prohibit the transfer of assets to the Plan from any other plan.

3.6 MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF SALARY DEFERRAL

(a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) below, contributions made during a Participant’s taxable year (which is presumed to be the calendar year) on behalf of the Participant under a Salary Deferral Agreement shall be limited to $17,500 (or such other limit as may be in effect at the beginning of such taxable year under Section 402(g)(1) of the Code), reduced by the amount of “elective deferrals” (as defined in Section 402(g)(3) of the Code) made during the taxable year of the Participant under any plans or agreements maintained by the Company or an Affiliated Company other than this Plan

- 16 -

(and, in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator, any plans or agreements maintained by any other employer, if reported to the Plan Administrator at such time and in such manner as the Plan Administrator shall prescribe).

(b) If contributions made on a Participant’s behalf for the preceding taxable year of the Participant under a Salary Deferral Agreement, and any other elective deferrals (within the meaning of Section 402(g)(3) of the Code), made on the Participant’s behalf under any other qualified cash or deferred arrangement of the Company for such taxable year exceed $17,500 (or such other amount as adjusted in accordance with paragraph (a) above), then the Participant shall notify the Plan Administrator in writing by the first March 1 following the close of such taxable year of the amount of such excess. Such notification shall include a statement that if such amounts are not distributed, the excess deferral amount, when added to amounts deferred under other plans or arrangements described in Section 401(k), 408(k), or 403(b) of the Code, will exceed the limit imposed on the Participant by Section 402(g) of the Code for the taxable year of the Participant in which the deferral occurred.

(c) If the elective deferral limit is exceeded for a Participant for a taxable year, the excess amount, adjusted for the net earnings or losses thereon through the last day of the Plan Year in which the excess deferral arose, shall be refunded to the Participant in a single payment no later than April 15 of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such excess deferral arose. If the Participant’s Before-Tax Contribution Account is invested in more than one investment fund, such refund shall be made pro rata, to the extent practicable, from all such investment funds. The amount refunded shall not exceed the Participant’s Before-Tax Contributions under the Plan for the taxable year. The payment shall be deemed to have been made before the close of the taxable year in which such excess deferral arose. If the Participant fails to notify the Plan Administrator by the specified March 1, no refund will be made.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b) above, a Participant’s excess Before-Tax Contributions shall be reduced, but not below zero, by any distribution of excess contributions made pursuant to Section 4.6 for a Plan Year, provided such excess contributions are distributed on or before March 15 of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which such excess contributions arose.

- 17 -

SECTION 4

COMPANY MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS

4.1 COMPANY MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS

The first three percent of Compensation deferred hereunder shall be eligible for Company Matching Contributions. Subject to Section 11.5, each pay period the Company shall contribute to the Matching Contribution Account of each Participant who is employed by the Company, an amount equal to such Participant’s Before-Tax Contributions up to the first three percent of such Participant’s Compensation; provided, however, that the maximum contribution rate shall be subject to the maximum limits described in the Plan. Such contributions shall be known as Company Matching Contributions. No Company Matching Contributions shall be made with respect to the Before-Tax Contributions in excess of three percent of Compensation made on behalf of any Participant.

Unless the collective bargaining agreement covering a Participant’s bargaining unit states otherwise, when the term of such collective bargaining agreement expires, unless it is extended, the Company shall not be required to make any Company Matching Contributions with respect to such Participant after such date, and such Participant shall become an inactive Participant for purposes of Company Matching Contributions under the Plan as of such date.

4.2 FORM OF COMPANY MATCHING CONTRIBUTION

Company Matching Contributions shall be contributed to the Trust Fund in cash no later than the time prescribed by law (including extensions thereof) for filing the Company’s Federal income tax return for the taxable year of the Company which includes the last day of the Plan Year for which such contributions are made.

4.3 COMPANY MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS REDUCED BY FORFEITURES

Company Matching Contributions shall be reduced by Forfeitures in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.5.

4.4 ESTABLISHMENT OF PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

(a) The Company shall establish and maintain for each Participant a Total Account consisting of the following three accounts, as described in Section 1.51, and any such other accounts as may be deemed necessary by the Plan Administrator:

(i) Before-Tax Contribution Account;

(ii) Matching Contribution Account; and

(iii) Rollover Contribution Account.

- 18 -

(b) Within each account described in paragraph (a) above, separate records shall be kept of the portion, if any, of each account invested in the funds listed in Section 5.1.

4.5 FORFEITURES

Forfeitures shall be applied, no later than the end of the Plan Year immediately following the Plan Year in which the Forfeitures occur, in the following order:

(a) to pay Plan fees and expenses;

(b) to the extent of any remainder to make restorations pursuant to the last sentence of Section 9.7(b);

(c) to the extent of any remainder, to reduce future Company Matching Contributions including any other contributions approved by the Plan Administrator; and

(d) to the extent of any remainder, to provide a Company Matching Contribution to be allocated to Participants no later than the Plan Year immediately following the Plan Year in which the Forfeitures occurred.

4.6 NONDISCRIMINATION REQUIREMENTS

(a) Actual Deferral Percentage Tests

(i) The average Deferral Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employee group shall not exceed the greater of:

(A) 125 percent (125%) of such percentage for the Nonhighly Compensated Employee group (for the preceding Plan Year if the prior-year testing method is used); or

(B) The lesser of 200 percent (200%) of such percentage for the Nonhighly Compensated Employee group (for the preceding Plan Year if the prior-year testing method is used), or such percentage for the Nonhighly Compensated Employee group (for the preceding Plan Year if the prior-year testing method is used) plus two (2) percentage points.

The Plan Administrator may exclude Nonhighly Compensated Employees who have not attained age 21 and do not have at least one Year of Service from the calculation of the average Deferral Percentage for Nonhighly Compensated Employees. This special testing rule may only be used in any Plan Year in which the Plan separately satisfies Section 410(b)(1) of the Code with respect to the group of Participants who have not attained age 21 or do not have at least one Year of Service.

- 19 -

(ii) The Deferral Percentage for each Participant and the average Deferral Percentage for each group shall be calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent.

(iii) A Highly Compensated Employee and a Nonhighly Compensated Employee shall include any Employee eligible to make a deferral election pursuant to Section 3.1, whether or not such deferral election was made or suspended pursuant to Section 3.3.

Notwithstanding the above, if the prior-year testing method is used to calculate the average Deferral Percentage for the Nonhighly Compensated Employee group for the first Plan Year of this amendment and restatement, a Nonhighly Compensated Employee shall include any such Employee eligible to make a deferral election, whether or not such deferral election was made or suspended, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan in effect for the preceding Plan Year.

Notwithstanding the above, if two or more plans which include cash or deferred arrangements are permissively aggregated under Regulation 1.410(b)-7(d), all plans permissively aggregated must use either the current-year testing method or the prior-year testing method for the testing year.

(iv) For the purposes of this Section, if a Highly Compensated Employee is a Participant under two or more cash or deferred arrangements of the Company or an Affiliated Company, all such cash or deferred arrangements shall be treated as one cash or deferred arrangement for the purposes of determining the actual deferral ratio with respect to such participating Highly Compensated Employee. However, if the cash or deferred arrangements have different plan years, all Before-Tax Contributions made during the Plan Year under all such arrangements shall be aggregated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, cash or deferred arrangements that are not permitted to be aggregated under Treasury Regulations issued under Section 401(k) of the Code shall be treated as separate arrangements.

(v) For the purpose of this Section, when calculating the average Deferral Percentage for the Nonhighly Compensated Employee group, the current-year testing method shall be used. Any change in the testing method shall be made pursuant to Internal Revenue Service Notice 98-1 (or superseding guidance).

- 20 -

(vi) The Plan Administrator may amend or revoke the Before-Tax Contributions election of any Participant at any time, if the Plan Administrator determines that such revocation or amendment is necessary to ensure that the discrimination test described in this Section 4.6(a) is satisfied.

(b) Actual Contribution Percentage Tests

(i) The Plan Administrator may amend or revoke the Before-Tax Contributions election of any Participant at any time, if the Plan Administrator determines that such revocation or amendment is necessary to ensure that the discrimination tests of Section 401(m) of the Code are met for such Plan Year. The discrimination tests shall be that the Actual Contribution Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan Year bears a relationship to the Actual Contribution Percentage for all other Eligible Employees for the preceding Plan Year which meets either of the following tests:

(A) the Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Contribution Percentage of all other Eligible Employees multiplied by 1.25, or

(B) the excess of the Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated Employees over that of all other Eligible Employees is not more than two percentage points, and the Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Contribution Percentage of all other Eligible Employees multiplied by two.

(ii) The provisions of this Section 4.6(b) are effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2013.

4.7 ADJUSTMENT TO ACTUAL DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE

(a) In the event that Excess Contributions (as such term is hereinafter defined) are made to the Trust Fund for any Plan Year, then, prior to March 15 of the following Plan Year, such Excess Contributions (plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto through the last day of the Plan Year in which such Excess Contributions were made) shall be

- 21 -

distributed to the Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the respective portions of the Excess Contributions attributable to each such Highly Compensated Employee in order of the dollar amount of Before-Tax Contributions made by or on behalf of such Highly Compensated Employees beginning with the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest dollar amount of Before-Tax Contributions. For the purposes of this Section, the term “Excess Contributions” shall mean, for any Plan Year, the excess of (a) the aggregate amount of Before-Tax Contributions actually paid to the Trust on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan Year over (b) the maximum amount of Before-Tax Contributions permitted for such Plan Year under Section 4.6(a), determined by hypothetically reducing Before-Tax Contributions made on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees in order of their actual deferral percentage (as defined in Section 4.6(a)) beginning with the highest of such percentages.

(i) With respect to the distribution of Excess Contributions pursuant to this Section 4.7(a), such distribution:

(A) May be postponed but not later than the close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year to which they are allocable;

(B) Shall be made first from unmatched Before-Tax Contributions and, thereafter, proportionately from Before-Tax Contributions which are matched and Company Matching Contributions which relate to such deferred compensation, if used in the average Deferral Percentage tests pursuant to Section 4.6(a); and

(C) Shall be designated by the Company as a distribution of Excess Contributions (and income).

(ii) Any distribution of less than the entire amount of Excess Contributions shall be treated as a pro rata distribution of Excess Contributions and income.

(iii) Company Matching Contributions that relate to Excess Contributions shall be forfeited.

(b) Within twelve (12) months after the end of the Plan Year, the Company may make a special Qualified Nonelective Contribution on behalf of Nonhighly Compensated Employees provided such contribution satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulation 1.401(k)-2(a)(6).

- 22 -

4.8 ADJUSTMENT TO ACTUAL CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE

(a) In the event that the Plan should fail to meet the test set forth in Section 4.6(b)(i), the amount of “excess aggregate contributions” for a Highly Compensated Employee for a Plan Year is to be determined by the following leveling methods:

(i) the total dollar amount of excess aggregate contributions is determined by reducing contributions on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees in the order of their contribution percentages, beginning with the highest of such percentages and continuing until the actual contribution percentage test is satisfied;

(ii) the amount determined in (i) above is reallocated beginning with the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest dollar amount of contributions taken into account in performing the actual contribution percentage test to equal the dollar amount of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of such contributions and continuing in succeeding order of the Highly Compensated Employees until all excess aggregate contributions are accounted for as determined in (i) above;

(iii) each Highly Compensated Employee will receive a distribution of his portion of excess aggregate contributions determined in step (ii) above.

(b) The amount of excess aggregate contributions with respect to an Employee for a Plan Year shall be determined only after first determining the excess contributions that are treated as Employee contributions for the Plan Year due to recharacterization. For each Highly Compensated Employee, the amount of excess aggregate contributions is equal to the total Company Matching Contributions, plus Before-Tax Contributions (excluding any Catch-Up Contributions) treated as matching contributions, on behalf of the Participant.

(c) Excess aggregate contributions (and income allocable thereto through the last day of the Plan Year in which such excess contributions were made) are distributed in accordance with this Section 4.8, only if such excess aggregate contributions (and allocable income) are designated by the Plan Administrator as a distribution of excess aggregate contributions (and income) and are distributed to appropriate Highly Compensated Employees after the close of the Plan Year in which the excess aggregate contributions occurred and within twelve months after the close of the following Plan Year.

- 23 -

(d) The provisions of this Section 4.8 are effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2013.

4.9 TESTING PROCEDURES

In applying the limitations set forth in Section 4.6, the Company may, at its option, utilize such testing procedures as may be permitted under Sections 401(a)(4), 401(k), 401(m) or 410(b) of the Code, subject to any applicable limitations contained in the regulations, including, without limitation, (1) aggregation of the Plan with one or more other qualified plans of the Controlled Group, (2) inclusion of qualified matching contributions, qualified non-elective contributions or elective deferrals described in, and meeting the requirements of, Treasury Regulations under Section 401(k) or 401(m) of the Code made to any other qualified plan of the Controlled Group, (3) exclusion of all Eligible Employees (other than Highly Compensated Employees) who have not met the minimum age and service requirements of section 410(a)(1)(A) of the Code, or (4) any permissible combination thereof.

4.10 AGGREGATION OF PLANS

In the event this Plan is aggregated with any other plan maintained by the Company or an Affiliated Company and treated as a single plan for purposes of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) of the Code, all Before-Tax Contributions, and Company Matching Contributions made under such plans shall be treated as made under a single plan, and if two or more of such plans are permissively aggregated for purposes of Sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code, such plans shall be treated as a single plan for purposes of satisfying Section 401(a)(4) and 410(b) of the Code.

4.11 DISAGGREGATION OF PLAN

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, in the event the mandatory disaggregation rules under applicable Treasury Regulations require that this Plan be treated as two (2) or more separate plans, the provisions of the Plan shall be applied separately with respect to each deemed separate plan, as required by law.

In the case of a deemed separate plan that covers Eligible Employees employed within a classification with respect to which retirement benefits have been the subject of collective bargaining, the provisions of Sections 4.6, 4.7, and 4.8 shall apply to such deemed separate plan and the provisions of Sections 4.6, 4.7, and 4.8 shall be deemed satisfied by such deemed separate plan.

- 24 -

4.12 CODE SECTION 415 LIMITS

The annual additions made on behalf of a Participant hereunder shall be limited to the extent required by Section 415 of the Code and rulings, notices and regulations issued thereunder. To the extent applicable, Section 415 of the Code and rulings, notices and regulations issued thereunder are hereby incorporated by reference into this Plan.

The Plan Administrator, the Trustee, the Company, or any other fiduciary to the Plan are not authorized or permitted to advise a Participant as to the selection of any option or the manner in which such contributions shall be invested. The fact that a security is available to Participants for investment under the Plan shall not be construed as a

- 27 -

recommendation as to the purchase of that security, nor shall the designation of an investment option impose any liability on the Plan Administrator, the Trustee, the Company, or any fiduciary to the Plan.

The Plan is intended to comply with the provisions of Section 404(c) of ERISA and the regulations thereunder. The Plan Administrator, the Trustee, the Company, and any fiduciary of the Plan shall be relieved of liability for any losses that are the result of investment directions given by a Participant, Beneficiary, or any other person authorized hereunder to direct the investment of any amount allocated to such Participant’s, Beneficiary’s, or other person’s Total Account. The selection of investment option choices and the administration of Plan investments are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 404(c)(1) of ERISA and the regulations thereunder.

5.5 TRANSFER OF FUNDS

Each Participant may elect upon sufficient notice (or such other form as the Plan Administrator approves) at any time to have any portion of his Total Account (in dollar amounts or in increments of 1%) in any fund to be transferred to any other fund.

The provisions of this Section 5.5 are subject to the rules, procedures and restrictions described in Section 5.1. In furtherance of, but without limiting the foregoing, the Trustee, the Plan Administrator, or any investment option provider (or their delegate, as applicable) may decline to implement any investment election or instruction where it deems appropriate.

5.6 STOCK RIGHTS, STOCK DIVIDENDS AND STOCK SPLITS

The Trustee, unless otherwise directed by the Plan Administrator, shall sell any rights which it receives to purchase shares of Company Stock. The net proceeds of the sale of such rights, and any cash received by the Trustee in connection with a stock dividend representing fractional interests in shares of Company Stock, shall be applied by the Trustee to purchase shares of Company Stock. The shares so purchased and any shares received by the Trustee as a result of a stock dividend or stock split shall be allocated by the Plan Administrator to the individual accounts of Participants, in proportion to their respective interests in Company Stock held by the Trust Fund.

- 28 -

5.7 TRADING RESTRICTIONS

Subject to Section 12, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary:

(a) The Plan Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may temporarily suspend, in whole or in part, certain Plan transactions, including, without limitation, the right to change or suspend contributions, and/or the right to receive a distribution, loan or withdrawal from an account in the event of any conversion, change in recordkeeper and/or Plan merger or spinoff.

(b) The Plan Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may suspend, in whole or in part, temporarily or permanently, Plan transactions dealing with investments, including without limitation, the right of a Participant to change investment elections or reallocate account balances in the event of any conversion, change in recordkeeper, change in investment options and/or Plan merger or spinoff.

(c) In the event of a change in investment options and/or a Plan merger or spinoff, the Plan Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may decide to map investments from a Participant’s prior investment fund elections to the then available investment options under the Plan. In the event that investments are mapped in this manner, the Participant shall be permitted to reallocate funds among the investment options (in accordance with the terms of the Plan and any relevant rules and procedures adopted for this purpose) after the suspension period described in paragraph (a) of this Section 5.7 (if any) is lifted.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the investment options shall be subject to, and governed by, all applicable legal rules and restrictions and the rules specified by the investment option providers in the fund prospectus(es) or other governing documents thereof (to the extent such rules and procedures are imposed and enforced by the investment fund provider against the Plan or a particular Participant). Such rules, procedures and restrictions may limit the ability of a Participant to make transfers into or out of a particular investment option and/or may result in additional transaction fees or other costs relating to such transfers. In furtherance of, but without limiting the foregoing, Trustee, recordkeeper, Plan Administrator or investment option provider (or their delegate, as applicable) may decline to implement any investment election or instruction where it deems appropriate.

5.8 RECOVERY OF ERRONEOUS PAYMENTS

In the event of an erroneous payment or payment amount in excess of the Plan’s obligation, the Plan may reduce future benefits by the amount of the error or may recover the excess directly from the person to or for whom the payment was made. This right of recovery does not limit the Plan’s right to recover an erroneous payment in any other manner.

- 29 -

SECTION 6

6.1 VESTING OF PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS

A Participant shall be fully Vested in his Before-Tax and Rollover Contribution Accounts at all times.

SECTION 7

DISTRIBUTIONS

7.1 DISTRIBUTION ON RETIREMENT, DISABILITY OR OTHER TERMINATION OF SERVICE

(a) After retirement at his Normal Retirement Date, date of Disability, or after his termination of employment with the Company and all Affiliated Companies, the Participant’s entire undistributed Vested interest in the Trust Fund shall be available to be distributed to him in a single lump-sum payment as described in Section 7.2.

(b) A Participant who has terminated employment with the Company and all Affiliated Companies shall receive payment (or, if clause (i) of this Section 7.1(b) applies and the Participant so elects, commence to receive payments) of the Vested portion of the undistributed balance in his Total Account as of one of the following dates:

(i) If the value of the Participant’s Vested interest in the Trust Fund at his Benefit Commencement Date exceeds $5,000, the date selected by the Participant, which shall not be later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70-1/2 or terminates employment, whichever is later.

(ii) If the value of the Participant’s Vested interest in the Trust Fund at his Benefit Commencement Date does not exceed $5,000, the Valuation Date following his termination of employment with the Company and all Affiliated Companies.

Distributions shall be made as soon as practicable after the applicable Valuation Date, provided the Participant has filed a proper distribution election form with the Plan Administrator, except as provided in the last paragraph of this Section 7.1. If the Participant fails to make proper application for benefits, distribution shall be made no later than 60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which occurs the latest of the Participant’s (A) Normal Retirement Date, (B) tenth anniversary of Plan participation, or (C) separation from Service with the Company and all Affiliated Companies.

If the amount of distribution available under this Section 7.1 cannot be determined by the date distribution is required to begin, payment will begin no later than 60 days after the date the amount of distribution can be determined, and shall include payments retroactive to the required beginning date.

- 31 -

Notwithstanding the foregoing, benefits from the Plan shall begin no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70 ¹⁄₂ or terminates employment, whichever is later.

The Plan will make an immediate lump sum distribution to a Participant if the value of the Participant’s Vested interest in the Trust Fund is not more than $5,000, excluding any Rollover Contributions and any earnings allocable to Rollover Contributions. If the value of a Participant’s Vested interest exceeds $1,000 but does not exceed $5,000, and if the Participant does not elect, pursuant to Section 7.10, to have his lump sum distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution directly, the Plan Administrator shall cause the distribution to be paid in a direct rollover to an individual retirement plan designated by the Plan Administrator.

7.2 LUMP SUM DISTRIBUTIONS

Lump sum distributions under Sections 7.1 or 7.3 may, at the election of the Participant (or, in the event of his death at the election of his designated Beneficiary), be made either in the form of cash equal to the value of the Participant’s interest in his Vested Total Account, or in the form of Company Stock equal to all of the Participant’s whole shares in the Company Stock Fund combined with a cash lump sum equal to the Participant’s fractional shares in the Company Stock Fund plus the remaining value of the Participant’s interest in the remaining funds. All distributions in Company Stock shall consist of only full shares with the value of any remaining shares being distributed in cash. The conversion of shares of Company Stock to cash shall be based on the closing price per share on the last day on which the stock was traded coincident with or next preceding the applicable Valuation Date.

7.3 DISTRIBUTIONS ON DEATH

(a) Upon the death of any Participant whether serving as an active Employee or having terminated his employment for any reason whatsoever and prior to commencement of, or complete distribution of, his Total Account, his entire remaining Vested interest in the Trust Fund shall be payable to his surviving Spouse as designated Beneficiary, except as provided below. If the Participant does not have a Spouse as of his date of death, the Participant’s interest shall be paid to his designated Beneficiary. If a Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall have predeceased him, or if the Participant’s designation shall have lapsed or failed for any reason, payment will be made to the Participant’s estate.

- 32 -

The Participant’s Vested interest may be paid to a designated Beneficiary other than his Spouse while the Participant’s Spouse is living only with the written consent of the Spouse. A spousal consent under this Section 7.3 must:

(i) be in writing on a form provided by the Plan Administrator;

(ii) specify the Beneficiary;

(iii) acknowledge the effect of such consent; and

(iv) be witnessed by a notary public.

Any such consent will be valid only with respect to the Spouse who signs the consent. A spousal consent is not required, however, if it is established to the satisfaction of the Plan Administrator that the consent cannot be obtained because (A) there is no Spouse; (B) the Spouse cannot be located; or (C) such other circumstances as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe by regulations.

A Participant’s designation of a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries shall not be effective for any purpose unless and until it has been filed by the Participant with the Plan Administrator, provided, however, that any designation received by the Plan Administrator after the Participant’s death shall take effect upon such receipt, but prospectively only and without prejudice to any payor or payee on account of any payments made before receipt of such designation by the Plan Administrator.

(b) Distribution of the Participant’s Vested interest in the Trust Fund under this Section 7.3 shall be made in a single lump sum payment as described in Section 7.2.

(c) If distribution to the Participant has begun and the Participant dies before his entire interest has been distributed, the remaining portion of the Participant’s nonforfeitable interest in the Trust Fund shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of payment in effect at the Participant’s date of death.

(d) If the Participant dies before commencement of his nonforfeitable interest in the Trust Fund, such interest (reduced by any security interest held by the Plan by reason of a loan outstanding to the Participant) shall be distributed to the Participant’s designated Beneficiary in a single lump sum cash payment within 90 days after the date the Participant’s death is reported to the Plan Administrator, or within a reasonable period of time thereafter, and provided the designated Beneficiary has filed a proper distribution election form with the Plan Administrator.

- 33 -

Except as provided in paragraph (e) below, distribution to a designated Beneficiary shall begin no later than the earlier of (i) December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s date of death, or (ii) December 31 of the calendar year in which the deceased Participant would have attained age 70-1/2.

(e) If the Participant’s designated Beneficiary is his Spouse, such Spouse may elect to defer distribution until December 31 of the calendar year in which the deceased Participant would have attained age 70-1/2. Such election must be made no later than the date distribution is required to begin under paragraph (d) above. If the Participant’s Spouse dies before any distribution is made, the provisions of this Section 7.3 shall be applied as though the Spouse was the Participant.

(f) If the amount of distribution available under this Section 7.3 cannot be determined by the date distribution is required to begin, payment will be made no later than 60 days after the date the amount of distribution can be determined, and shall include payments retroactive to the required beginning date.

7.4 INVESTMENT OF DEFERRED DISTRIBUTIONS

If a Participant defers receipt of a distribution of his Total Account in accordance with this Section, his Total Account shall continue to be invested in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 until his Total Account is distributed to him.

7.5 PROOF OF DEATH

The Plan Administrator may, as a condition precedent to making payment to any Beneficiary, require that a death certificate, burial certificate, or other evidence of death acceptable to it be furnished.

7.6 LOAN AS A DISTRIBUTION

In the event a Participant is eligible to receive a distribution in accordance with this Section 7, he shall be given the opportunity to repay his outstanding loan balance, if any. Repayment must be made prior to the date of distribution. If the Participant fails to fully repay his outstanding loan balance at the time a lump-sum distribution is made to him, the Participant’s loan shall be deemed canceled and the remaining outstanding loan balance shall be treated as part of the Participant’s lump sum distribution.

- 34 -

If the Participant fails to fully repay his outstanding loan balance at the time the first payment of an installment is made to him, the Participant’s loan shall be deemed canceled and the remaining loan balance shall be treated as though it had been distributed to the Participant on the Valuation Date as of which his first installment payment is made. The outstanding loan balance shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of installment payments.

7.7 DISTRIBUTION TO ALTERNATE PAYEES

The Plan Administrator may authorize the Trustee to make a lump sum distribution to an Alternate Payee pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as soon as administratively practicable after the Valuation Date next following the earlier of:

(a) The date the Participant terminates employment;

(b) The date the Participant is entitled to a distribution under the Plan; or

(c) The date the Alternate Payee elects to receive a distribution from the Plan; provided the Alternate Payee has filed a request for distribution with the Plan Administrator.

(d) The date the Plan Administrator determines that the order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, subject to any deferred distribution date specified in the Qualified Domestic Relations Order, provided the Alternate Payee has filed a request for distribution with the Plan Administrator.

If the Alternate Payee’s nonforfeitable interest in the Plan does not exceed $5,000, distribution to the Alternate Payee shall be made at the earliest possible date described above.

7.8 NOTICE TO PAYEES

At the time a Participant or Beneficiary makes application for benefits, the Plan Administrator shall furnish the individual with a written notice of distribution.

7.9 RESTRICTIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, a Participant’s Before-Tax Contribution Account shall not be distributable prior to his termination of employment with the Company and all Affiliated Companies, Disability, or death, except:

(i) in cases of hardship, as provided in Section 8.1; or

(ii) upon termination of the Plan without establishment or maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code).

- 35 -

No distribution shall be authorized by paragraph (ii) above, unless the distribution qualifies as a “lump sum distribution” within the meaning of Section 401(k)(10)(B)(ii) of the Code.

(b) All distributions made from this Plan shall comply with the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary.

7.10 ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTIONS

Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a Distributee’s election under this Section 7.10, a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution equal to at least $500 transferred to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee in a Direct Rollover.

Definitions:

(a) Eligible Rollover Distribution: An Eligible Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include: any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee’s designated Beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; any distribution that is made upon the hardship of the employee; the portion of any distribution that is not includable in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities); and any other distribution that is reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a portion of a distribution shall not fail to be an Eligible Rollover Distribution merely because the portion consists of after-tax employee contributions which are not includable in gross income. However, such portion may be transferred only to an individual retirement account or annuity described in Section 408(a) or (b) of the Code, or to a qualified defined contribution plan described in Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code that agrees to separately account for amounts so transferred, including separately accounting for the portion of such distribution which is includable in gross income and the portion of such distribution which is not so includable.

- 36 -

(b) Eligible Retirement Plan: An Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code, a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, an annuity contract described in Section 403(b) of the Code, or an eligible plan under Section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state that accepts the Distributee’s Eligible Rollover Distribution and agrees to separately account for amounts rolled into such plan from the Plan, and, effective January 1, 2008, a Roth IRA described in Section 408A(b) of the Code.

(c) Distributee: A Distributee includes an Employee or former Employee. In addition, the Employee’s or former Employee’s surviving Spouse and the Employee’s or former Employee’s Spouse or former Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code, are Distributees with regard to the interest of the Spouse or former Spouse. A Distributee also includes an Employee’s designated Beneficiary but only with respect to the following Eligible Retirement Plans: an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code and an individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code.

(d) Direct Rollover: A Direct Rollover is the payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee.

7.11 REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS

(a) General Rules.

(i) The requirements of this Section 7.11 shall apply to any distribution of a Participant’s Account and shall take precedence over any inconsistent provisions of this Plan, provided that the requirements of this Section 7.11 shall not enlarge the distribution options currently available to Participants and Beneficiaries under the other provisions of Section 7.11 of the Plan.

(ii) All distributions required under this Section shall be determined and made in accordance with the regulations under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.

(iii) Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.11(l), the Plan will apply the minimum distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code in accordance with the regulations under Section 401(a)(9) promulgated on April 17, 2002, notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary.

- 37 -

(b) Distributions Commencing During a Participant’s Lifetime.

(i) To the extent required by Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the entire interest of a Participant must be distributed to such Participant no later than the Participant’s Required Beginning Date, or must be distributed, beginning not later than the Required Beginning Date, over the life of the Participant or joint lives of the Participant and designated Beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant or the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Participant and the designated Beneficiary.

(ii) Required Beginning Date means, for a Participant who is a five percent owner (as defined in Section 416 of the Code), April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which he attains age 70  ¹⁄₂.

(iii) Required Beginning Date means, for any Participant who is not a five percent owner (as defined in Section 416 of the Code), April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the calendar year in which he attains age 70  ¹⁄₂ or the calendar year of his Retirement.

(iv) The applicable distribution period for required minimum distributions for distribution calendar years up to and including the distribution calendar year that includes the Participant’s death is determined using the Internal Revenue Service’s Uniform Lifetime Table for the Participant’s age as of the Participant’s birthday in the relevant distribution calendar year.

(c) Distributions Before Required Beginning Date. Lifetime distributions made before the Participant’s Required Beginning Date for calendar years before the Participant’s first distribution calendar year, need not be made in accordance with this Section 7.11. However, if distributions commence before the Participant’s Required Beginning Date under a particular distribution option, the distribution option fails to satisfy the provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code at the time distributions commence, if under the terms of the particular distribution option, distributions to be made for the Participant’s first distribution calendar year or any subsequent distribution calendar year fail to satisfy Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.

- 38 -

(d) Death After Distributions Have Begun. If distribution of the Participant’s interest has begun and the Participant dies before his entire interest has been distributed to him, the remaining portion of such interest will continue to be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used prior to the Participant’s death. The applicable distribution period for distribution calendar years after the distribution calendar year containing the Participant’s death is either the longer of the remaining life expectancy of the Participant’s designated Beneficiary or the remaining life expectancy of the Participant. If the Beneficiary is not an individual or does not otherwise meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, the remaining life expectancy of the Participant must be utilized.

(e) Death Before Required Beginning Date. If the Participant dies before his Required Beginning Date and distribution of his interest, distribution of the Participant’s entire interest shall be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.

(f) Minimum Distribution Amount.

If a Participant’s benefit is to be distributed over:

(i) a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant or the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Participant and the Participant’s designated Beneficiary, or

(ii) a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated Beneficiary,

the amount required to be distributed for each calendar year beginning with the distributions for the first distribution calendar year, must be at least equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s benefit by the applicable distribution period. For distribution calendar years up to and including the distribution calendar year that includes the Participant’s death, the required minimum distribution amount is determined under the Uniform Lifetime Tables promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service for the Participant’s age as of his birthday in the relevant distribution calendar year. If a Participant dies on or after the Required Beginning Date, the distribution period available for calculating the amount that must be distributed during the distribution calendar year that includes the Participant’s death is determined as if the Participant had lived throughout the year. If the sole designated Beneficiary of a Participant is the Participant’s surviving Spouse, for required minimum distributions during the

- 39 -

Participant’s lifetime, the applicable distribution period is the longer of the distribution period determined in accordance with the preceding three sentences or the joint life expectancy of the Participant and Spouse using the Participant’s and Spouse’s attained ages as of the Participant’s and Spouse’s birthdays in the distribution calendar year. The Spouse is the sole designated Beneficiary for purposes of determining the applicable distribution period only if the Spouse is the sole Beneficiary of the Participant’s entire interest at all times during the distribution calendar year.

(g) Life expectancies for purposes of determining required minimum distributions must be computed using the Single Life Table and the Joint and Last Survivor Table promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service.

(h) If distributions are made in accordance with this Section 7.11, the minimum distribution incidental benefit requirement is satisfied.

(i) Timing of Distributions. The minimum distribution required for the Participant’s first distribution calendar year must be made on or before the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. The minimum distribution for other calendar years, including the minimum distribution for the distribution calendar year in which the Participant’s Required Beginning Date occurs, must be made on or before December 31 of that calendar year.

(j) Distribution to a Charitable Organization. If a Participant selects as his Beneficiary a tax-exempt organization qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, any interest under the Plan payable to said tax-exempt organization must be distributed no later than September 30 of the calendar year following calendar year in which the Participant dies.

(k) Multiple Plans. If a Participant is a participant in more than one qualified retirement plan, the plans in which the Participant participates are not permitted to be aggregated for purposes of testing whether the distribution requirements are met. The distribution of the benefit of the Participant under each plan must separately meet the requirements.

(l) 2009 Required Minimum Distributions.

(i) 2009 RMDs. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 7.11, a Participant or Beneficiary who would have been required to receive required minimum distributions for 2009 but for the enactment of Section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code (“2009 RMDs”), and who would have satisfied that requirement by receiving distributions that are equal to the 2009 RMDs, will not receive those

- 40 -

distributions for 2009 unless the Participant or Beneficiary chooses to receive such distributions. Participants and Beneficiaries described in the preceding sentence will be given the opportunity to elect to receive the distributions described in the preceding sentence. In addition, notwithstanding Section 7.10 of the Plan, and solely for purposes of applying the direct rollover provisions of the Plan, 2009 RMDs will be treated as eligible rollover distributions on or after June 8, 2009. Prior to June 8, 2009, a direct rollover was offered only for distributions that would be eligible rollover distributions without regard to Section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code.

(ii) Extended 2009 RMDs. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 7.11, a Participant or Beneficiary who would have been required to receive 2009 RMDs but for the enactment of Section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code, and who would have satisfied that requirement by receiving distributions that are one or more payments in a series of substantially equal distributions (that include the 2009 RMDs) made at least annually and expected to last for the life (or life expectancy) of the Participant, the joint lives (or joint life expectancy) of the Participant and the Participant’s designated Beneficiary, or for a period of at least 10 years (“Extended 2009 RMDs”), will receive those distributions for 2009 unless the Participant or Beneficiary chooses not to receive such distributions. For purposes of applying the direct rollover provisions of Section 7.10 of the Plan, Extended 2009 RMDs are not treated as eligible rollover distributions.

(iii) Rollover Contributions. Subject to the timing requirements outlined in applicable rules and regulations, a Participant may contribute to the Trust as a Rollover Contribution any 2009 RMDs and Extended 2009 RMDs distributed from the Plan to the Participant.

- 41 -

SECTION 8

WITHDRAWALS AND LOANS DURING EMPLOYMENT

8.1 HARDSHIP WITHDRAWALS

(a) A Participant may request a hardship withdrawal, subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, in an amount which does not exceed the amount required to meet the immediate and heavy financial need created by the hardship and provided the Participant has obtained all distributions (including distributions of ESOP dividends under section 404(k) of the Code but not hardship distributions) and all nontaxable loans available under all qualified plans maintained by the Company or an Affiliated Company (including, without limitation, any qualified and non-qualified deferred compensation plan and any cash or deferred arrangement that is part of a cafeteria plan (other than mandatory employee contributions under a welfare plan or pension plan)).

The Plan Administrator will not approve a hardship withdrawal for less than $200. The Plan Administrator shall promptly review the hardship withdrawal request and notify the Participant that the request has been approved or disapproved. The Plan Administrator shall approve requests for hardship withdrawals using the objective criteria set forth in paragraph (b) below as well as documentary evidence submitted by the Participant to substantiate the reason for and the amount of the need. The only discretion to be exercised by the Plan Administrator is that which is reasonably necessary to determine whether the objective conditions have been met.

In the event amounts are withdrawn from the Participant’s Before-Tax Contributions Account in accordance with this Section 8.1, Participant Contributions made under Section 3.1 (or any comparable contributions to any other plan maintained by the Controlled Group, including, without limitation, any non-qualified deferred compensation plan, any cash or deferred arrangement that is part of a cafeteria plan (other than mandatory employee contributions under a welfare plan or pension plan) and any stock option, stock purchase or similar plan) shall be suspended for a period of six consecutive months commencing the next available pay period following the date of withdrawal.

- 42 -

(b) For purposes of this Section, a withdrawal shall be deemed to be made on account of an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant if the withdrawal is on account of:

(i) expenses for (or necessary to obtain) medical care that would be deductible under Section 213(d) of the Code (determined without regard to whether the expenses exceed 7.5% of adjusted gross income);

(ii) costs directly related to the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence for the Participant;

(iii) payment of tuition, related educational fees, and room and board expenses for up to the next twelve months of post-secondary education for the Participant, the Participant’s Spouse, children or dependents (as defined in Code Section 152, and, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2005, without regard to Code Section 152(b)(1), (b)(2), or (d)(1)(B));

(iv) payments necessary to prevent the eviction of the Participant from the Participant’s principal residence or foreclosure on the mortgage of that principal residence;

(v) payment for burial or funeral expenses for the Participant’s deceased parent, Spouse, children or dependents (as defined in Section 152 of the Code, and, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2005, without regard to Section 152(d)(1)(B) of the Code); or

(vi) expenses for the repair of damage to the Participant’s principal residence that would qualify for the casualty deduction under Section 165 of the Code (determined without regard to whether the loss exceeds 10% of adjusted gross income).

(c) A hardship withdrawal made by a Participant under this Section 8.1 shall be withdrawn from the Participant’s Total Account:

(i) First, from the Vested balance in his Matching Contribution Account;

(ii) Next, from the balance in his Before-Tax Contribution Account.

(d) Amounts withdrawn under paragraph (c) above shall be debited from each Fund (except the Loan Fund) in proportion to the balance of each account from which the withdrawal to be made is invested in such Fund.

(e) Requests for hardship withdrawals may be made at any time, but not more frequently than once a year for reasons other than payment of post-secondary education expenses. Requests for hardship withdrawals for payment of post-secondary education expenses

- 43 -

may be made as often as every calendar quarter, and may be made in addition to a withdrawal for a non-tuition payment reason. All withdrawal elections shall be made by a Participant on written forms supplied by the Trustee for that purpose.

8.2 RESTORATION OF WITHDRAWALS

A Participant shall not be permitted to restore to the Plan any amounts withdrawn under the provisions of Section 8.1.

8.3 TIMING OF WITHDRAWALS

All withdrawals shall be made as soon as practicable after the Valuation Date designated by the Participant in his election. The Plan Administrator in its discretion may authorize an advance payment in an amount equal to all or a portion of the amount of the requested withdrawal, with the balance, if any, to be made as soon as practicable after such Valuation Date. To the extent that any withdrawals are made from the Company Stock Fund or Timken Stock Fund, such withdrawals shall be made in cash. Withdrawals of shares are not permitted.

8.4 LOANS

A Participant or any beneficiary who is a party in interest (as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) may obtain a loan from the Trust for any reason upon proper application to the Trust pursuant to procedures established by the Company. For purposes of this Section 8.4, the term “Participant” shall include an Alternate Payee described in the preceding sentence. The nature and amount of the loan must conform to the following rules and limits:

(a) The Participant may borrow only from such Participant’s Vested interest in his Total Account.

(b) The minimum loan amount is $1,000.

(c) The maximum loan amount is the lesser of (i) 50 percent (50%) of the Participant’s Vested interest in his Total Account reduced by any current outstanding loan balance or (ii) $50,000, reduced by the Participant’s highest outstanding loan balance from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day before the date on which such loan is made. The Trustee will accept only the Participant’s accrued benefit as collateral for loans.

(d) The term of the loan cannot exceed five (5) years, except that the term of a loan made for the purpose of purchasing a primary residence cannot exceed thirty (30) years. The term of a loan that is not for the purchase of a primary residence may be extended beyond five (5) years for a Participant on military leave from the Company with the term of the extension not to exceed the length of such military leave.

- 44 -

(e) A Participant may have only one loan from this Plan in effect at any one time and may apply for a subsequent loan immediately after his previous loan is paid in full.

(f) The Company will establish the rate of interest to be charged on all loan balances. This rate of interest will be one percent (1%) in excess of the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month in which the loan is granted. A Participant on a military leave from the Company may be entitled to the interest rate reduction provided in the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940.

(g) The loan shall be repaid by the Participant, if the Participant is an active Employee, through payroll deduction (at least quarterly) as established by the loan agreement. If the borrower is not an active Employee, the borrower and the Company shall agree to a repayment schedule which shall be incorporated in the loan agreement.

(h) The loan may be repaid in full at a date earlier than provided in the loan agreement with no penalty.

(i) Any loan fees will be charged to the Participant’s Account.

(j) Interest paid by the Participant in excess of loan fees, if any, will be credited directly to the Participant’s account.

(k) The loan amount will be taken on a pro-rata basis from the beneficial loan interest in all investment options at the time of the loan and on a pro-rata basis from Company, Participant and Rollover Contributions at the time of the loan. Repayments will be redeposited into the Participant’s current investment options and contributions using the current ratio.

(l) If a Participant or Beneficiary does not repay a loan which he may have from the Plan, the Trustee will declare such loan to be in default when the loan is in arrears of repayment for more than 90 days. The Trustee may take steps to preserve Plan assets, if necessary, in the event of such default. Once default has been established, the amount of the loan in default (unpaid principal and the interest accrued thereon) shall be treated as a distribution from the Plan in the Plan Year in which the default occurs. The amount of the default will not constitute part of subsequent distributions from the Trust.

- 45 -

(m) The Plan Administrator may agree to a suspension of loan payments for up to twelve (12) months for a Participant who is on a Leave of Absence without pay. During the suspension period, interest shall continue to accrue on the outstanding loan balance.

The Company expressly reserves the right to amend or discontinue the Plan by action of the Board at any time.

The Board or the Plan Administrator shall have the authority to waive requirements as to eligibility in the case of those Participants whose standing has changed so as to otherwise render them ineligible to participate. No amendment may be made which will deprive any Employee of any interest hereunder that has accrued to him.

11.2 RIGHT TO TERMINATE

The Plan may be terminated at any time by resolution of the Board provided that no such action shall permit any part of the assets of the Trust Fund, whether principal or income, to revert to the Company or to be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries until all liabilities, fixed or contingent, under the Plan with respect to such Participants and Beneficiaries shall have been satisfied in full.

If another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code) is established or maintained (within the meaning of Section 401(k)(10)(A)(i) of the Code) distribution shall not be made until a Participant’s actual separation from service (within the meaning of Section 401(k)(2)(B) of the Code).

SECTION 12

TIMKEN STOCK FUND

12.1 GENERAL

In addition to the investment options described in Section 5.1, an investment fund consisting primarily of common shares of Timken (the “Timken Stock Fund”) shall be maintained in the Plan. Except for cash or cash equivalent investments determined by the Investment Committee to be required to facilitate Participant transactions out of the Timken Stock Fund, the Timken Stock Fund shall be invested exclusively in Timken Stock. Any cash dividends paid with respect to Timken Stock shall be paid to the Plan and reinvested initially in the same investment options the Participant has selected pursuant to Section 5.2, or, if the Participant has made no such elections, reinvested in any investment option or options, excluding the Timken Stock Fund, selected in a manner determined by the Investment Committee until such time as the Participant selects investment options.

The Timken Stock Fund shall be a “frozen” fund initially holding the shares of Timken Stock received from the Prior Plan in connection with the Spinoff. No Before-Tax Contributions, Catch-Up Contributions, Company Matching Contributions or Rollover Contributions may be invested in the Timken Stock Fund and a Participant may not request a fund transfer to the Timken Stock Fund. A Participant may, however, request fund transfers from the Timken Stock Fund to any other investment option pursuant to the rules for fund transfers described in Section 5.5.

The Timken Stock Fund is maintained in recognition of the fact that Transferred Participants may have a personal and professional dedication to, and history of investment in, Timken, and that offering the Timken Stock Fund as an investment option provides Transferred Participants with the ability to preserve their personal affiliation with Timken through investment if they so choose.

In light of the historical relationship between the Company and Timken, and the availability of other investment options under the Plan through which Participants may construct a diversified portfolio of investments consistent with their individual desired level of risk and return, the Company intends that the Timken Stock Fund be maintained as a design feature of the Plan, without regard to the investment return of the Timken Stock Fund in comparison to any performance measure that might be appropriate for any other investment option. No Plan fiduciary shall have the authority to direct the sale of Timken Stock or to remove the Timken Stock Fund as an investment option, provided that the Investment Committee may remove the

- 60 -

Timken Stock Fund as an investment option and sell the remaining Timken Stock if the Investment Committee determines that (i) the level of continued investment by Participants in the Timken Stock Fund is not sufficient to reasonably justify the administrative and recordkeeping expense of maintaining the fund, or (ii) no prudent investor would choose to invest any assets in Timken Stock, even as part of a diversified portfolio based on the investor’s individual risk and return preferences and the Plan’s available investment options.

12.2 VOTING AND TENDER OF TIMKEN STOCK

Each Participant, each Beneficiary who has succeeded to the interest of a Participant and each Alternate Payee (“Eligible Participants and Beneficiaries”) in this Plan shall have the authority to direct the exercise of voting rights as to whole shares of Timken Stock for the benefit of the Eligible Participant or Beneficiary as of the most current Valuation Date available preceding the record date for the shareholders’ meeting. The Trustee shall furnish Timken’s Annual Report, Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, Proxy Card and other shareholder information to each Eligible Participant and Beneficiary and shall solicit each Eligible Participant’s and Beneficiary’s vote; the Company reserves the option to retain the Trustee to perform these services. All other shares of Timken Stock held in the Trust Fund, including shares not voted by Eligible Participants or Beneficiaries or not yet allocated to Eligible Participants or Beneficiaries, are to be voted by the Trustee in conformity with applicable law, taking into account votes directed by Eligible Participants and Beneficiaries.

- 61 -

SECTION 13

Whenever the word “he” or “his” or “him” is used in the Plan, such word is intended to embrace within its purview the word “she” or “her”, as may be appropriate.

13.2 INVESTMENTS AND EXPENSES

All Trustees’ fees, investment manager’s fees and administrative costs shall be borne by the Company, except for investment manager fees charged by the Investment Options shall be borne by the Plan.

13.3 VOTING AND TENDER OF COMPANY STOCK

Eligible Participants and Beneficiaries (as defined in Section 12.2) in this Plan shall have the authority to direct the exercise of voting rights as to whole shares of Company Stock for the benefit of the Eligible Participant or Beneficiary as of the most current Valuation Date available preceding the record date for the shareholders’ meeting. The Trustee shall furnish the Company’s Annual Report, Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, Proxy Card and other shareholder information to each Eligible Participant and Beneficiary and shall solicit each Eligible Participant’s and Beneficiary’s vote; the Company reserves the option to retain the Trustee to perform these services. All other shares of Company Stock held in the Trust Fund, including shares not voted by Eligible Participants or Beneficiaries or not yet allocated to Eligible Participants or Beneficiaries, are to be voted by the Trustee in conformity with applicable law, taking into account votes directed by Eligible Participants and Beneficiaries.

13.4 STATEMENTS OF ACCOUNTS

The Plan Administrator shall cause to be furnished to each Participant on a quarterly basis, but no less frequently than once in each Plan Year, a statement showing the value of his Total Account invested in each investment Fund and the Vested portion of his Total Account.

13.5 NONALIENABILlTY OF BENEFITS

Participants and Beneficiaries are entitled to all the benefits specifically set out under the terms of the Plan, but neither those benefits nor any of the property rights in the Plan are assignable or distributable to any creditor or other claimant of a Participant or Beneficiary. A Participant will not have the right to anticipate, assign, pledge, accelerate or in any way dispose of or encumber any of the monies or benefits or other property that may be payable or become payable to such

- 62 -

Participant or his Beneficiary provided, however, the Plan Administrator shall recognize and comply with a valid Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code.

13.10 VOLUNTARY PLAN

The Plan is purely voluntary on the part of the Company and neither the establishment of the Plan nor any Plan amendment nor the creation of any fund or account, nor the payment of any benefits will be construed as giving any Employee or any other person a legal or equitable right against the Company, any Affiliate, any trustee, any funding agent or the Plan Administrator unless specifically provided for in this Plan or conferred by affirmative action of the Plan Administrator or the Company according to the terms and provisions of this Plan. Such actions will not be construed as giving any Employee or Participant the right to be retained in the service of any Company or Affiliated Company. All Employees and Participants will remain subject to discharge to the same extent as though this Plan had not been established. The Trust Fund shall be the sole source of all distributions or other benefits provided for in the Plan and the Company shall not be liable or responsible therefor.

13.11 LIMITATION OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

Nothing expressed or implied in the Plan is intended or will be construed to confer upon or give to any person, firm or association other than the Company, Participants and Beneficiaries, and their successors in interest, any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Plan, except as otherwise provided in Section 13.5.

13.12 INVALID PROVISIONS

In case any provision of this Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan. The Plan will be construed and enforced as if the illegal and invalid provisions had never been included.

This Plan may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and the counterparts will constitute one and the same instrument and may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart.

13.14 GOVERNING LAW

The Plan will be governed by and construed according to the federal laws governing employee benefit plans qualified under the Code and according to the laws of the state of Ohio where such laws are not in conflict with the federal laws.

13.15 TRADE CONTROL POLICY

Commencing with transactions with an effective date of October 1, 2006, Plan Participants who exchange any amount out of a mutual fund or a similar type of product or fund under the Plan will be prohibited from purchasing shares of the same mutual fund through an exchange transaction for 30 calendar days (the “Trade Control Policy”).

The Trade Control Policy will not apply to the following:

(a) money-market mutual funds.

(b) actively managed separate accounts or lifestyle portfolios – mutual fund companies and other investment managers may impose additional trade control policies as a requirement for the Plan to include their products in the Plan lineup, or as an underlying security in an actively managed separate account or lifestyle type of portfolio.

(c) purchase transactions:

(i) contribution processing, including Participant payroll, Company Matching Contributions, loan repayments, and rollovers.

(ii) fund dividends or capital gain distributions.

(d) redemption transactions:

(i) distributions, loans, and in-service withdrawals from the Plan.

(ii) Plan termination at the discretion and direction of the Plan sponsor or other fiduciary.

(iii) payment of fund or Account fees.

(e) conversions of shares from one class to another in the same fund.

(f) re-registration of shares.

The Trade Control Policy will also not apply to Company Stock or Timken Stock because it is not a mutual fund or similar type of product or fund to which this policy applies.

- 66 -

Transactions initiated by a retirement plan’s service provider or a similar program will be exempt from the Trade Control Policy. Reallocation and rebalancing transactions initiated by Plan Participants (whether the Participant is acting alone or utilizing an investment advisor, investment advisory service or other Plan feature) will not be exempt from the Trade Control Policy.
