        "Account" means an account established on behalf of a Participant under Article VI.

        "ACP" means, for any Plan Year being tested, the average of the ratios described below calculated separately (i) as of the last day of such current Plan Year for each Participant who is an HCE and (ii) as of the last day of the prior Plan Year for each Participant who is an NHCE. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a timely election is made, the ratio for each Participant who is an NHCE will be calculated as of the last day of such current Plan Year. Such ratio for each such Participant shall be the ratio of the amount of any matching contributions made on behalf of the Participant for such Plan Year to the Taxable Wages received by the Participant for such Plan Year (the "Contribution Percentage"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, instead of using Taxable Wages to determine such Contribution Percentages, the Committee in its discretion may select an alternative definition of compensation permitted under Sections 414(s) of the Code. At the election of the Committee, Qualified Non-Elective Contributions and Before-Tax Contributions may be included in such Contribution Percentage for purposes of the ACP test in accordance with Section 401(m) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, provided, the ADP test is satisfied following the exclusion of such Before-Tax Contributions that are used to meet the ACP test. The ACP and the ratios used to determine such percentage shall be calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent.

        "Adjusted" means the cost of living adjustment factor prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury under Section 415(d) of the Code or otherwise, as applied to such items and in such manner as such Secretary shall provide.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a timely election is made, the ratio for each Participant who is an NHCE will be calculated as of the last day of such current Plan Year. Such ratio for each such Participant shall be the ratio of the amount of any Before-Tax Contributions made on behalf of the Participant for such Plan Year to the Taxable Wages received by the Participant for such Plan Year (the "Deferral Percentage"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, instead of using Taxable Wages to determine such Deferral Percentages, the Committee in its discretion may select an alternative definition of compensation permitted under Sections 414(s) of the Code. At the election of the Committee, Qualified Non-Elective Contributions and Qualified Matching Contributions may be included in such Deferral Percentage for purposes of the ADP test in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The ADP and the ratios used to determine such percentage shall be calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent.

ARTICLE III
Administration of Plan

        3.01    Plan Administration; Committee.    The Plan shall be administered by the Company. The Company shall be the plan administrator within the meaning of Section 3(16)(A) of ERISA and shall have fiduciary responsibility for the general operation of the Plan. The Company shall have the power to appoint the Committee to carry out its duties with respect to Plan administration; provided, however, that if at any time a Committee does not exist, all such powers shall be exercised by the Company; and further provided, that the Committee shall have no responsibility for, or control over, the investment or management of Plan assets.

        3.02    Powers and Duties.    Subject to the foregoing, the Committee shall have the power and the duty to take all actions and to make all decisions that shall be necessary or proper to carry out the provisions of the Plan and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing (subject as aforesaid), the Committee shall have the following powers and duties:

            (a)   to make and enforce such rules and regulations as it shall deem necessary or proper for the efficient administration of the Plan and the transaction of the Committee's business;

            (b)   to construe the Plan and to determine all questions of fact that may arise hereunder, including the discretionary authority to interpret the facts of a particular situation and the terms of the Plan and to decide all questions concerning the eligibility of any person to participate in the Plan, the right to and the amount of any benefit payable under the Plan to or on behalf of any individual and the date on which any individual ceases to be a Participant, with any such construction or determination to be conclusively binding and final, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon all persons interested or claiming an interest in the Plan;

            (c)   to administer and maintain a claims procedure pursuant to which any Participant, Beneficiary or Spouse whose claim for benefits under the Plan has been denied shall be given (i) notice in writing of such denial (including the reasons therefor) and (ii) a reasonable opportunity to have a full review of such denial by the Committee; and

            (d)   to delegate to any one or more Employees or other persons (including corporations and other entities), severally or jointly, the authority to perform any ministerial act in connection with the administration of the Plan.

        The Committee, in making any determinations or constructions required hereunder and in exercising any discretionary power, shall treat Participants in like circumstances in a like manner. In addition to the foregoing, the Committee shall have all the rights, powers, duties and obligations granted or imposed upon it elsewhere in the Plan.

        3.03    Action of Committee.    The Committee shall act by a majority vote of its members at the time in office. The Committee may by such majority action allocate to any one or more

14


of its members or its secretary any responsibility it may have under the Plan or designate any other person or persons to carry out any responsibility of the Committee under the Plan.

        3.04    Restrictions on Members.    Members of the Committee (and other persons who are fiduciaries with regard to the Plan) may serve in more than one fiduciary capacity with respect to the Plan. A member of the Committee who is also a Participant shall not vote or act upon any matter relating solely or primarily to himself.

        3.05    Compensation.    The members of the Committee shall serve without compensation for their services as such, but they shall be entitled to reimbursement for all sums reasonably and necessarily expended by them in the performance of their duties hereunder.

        3.06    Professional Assistance.    The Committee may retain such accounting, actuarial, recordkeeping, legal and clerical services as it reasonably deems to be required in the administration of the Plan, and may pay reasonable compensation for such services. The Committee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on all tables, valuations, certificates, opinions and reports furnished to it by such persons and on all information, elections and designations furnished to it by Participants and Employers.

        3.07    Payment of Administrative Costs.    Payment of amounts authorized under Sections 3.05 and 3.06, and all other costs of establishing and administering the Plan, shall be paid by the Trustee from the Trust. Except to the extent such costs are paid by Employers at the direction of the Company, the balances in Participants' Accounts shall be proportionately charged for plan administration expenses.

        3.08    Indemnification.    To the extent permitted by applicable law and the By-laws of the Company, the Employers shall indemnify the Committee and each member thereof and any employees of an Employer or other Affiliated Company to whom administrative duties have been delegated, against any and all claims, losses, damages, expenses and liabilities arising from their responsibilities in connection with the Plan, unless the same is determined to be due to their gross negligence or intentional misconduct.

        3.09    Benefit Claim Procedure.    (a) Within a reasonable time following a Participant's Termination of Employment, the Committee shall communicate to the Participant or, if he is deceased, to his Beneficiary, with respect to the benefits payable under the Plan. Not later than 30 days after receipt of such notification, the Participant or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, may file with the Committee a written claim objecting to the benefits payable under the Plan. The Committee, not later than 90 days after receipt of such claim, shall render a written decision to the claimant on the claim. If the claim is denied, in whole or in part, such decision shall include:

              (1)   The reason or reasons for the denial;

              (2)   A reference to the Plan provision which is the basis for the denial;

              (3)   A description of any additional material or information, if any, necessary for the claimant to perfect his claim;

15


              (4)   An explanation as to why such information or material is necessary; and

              (5)   An explanation of the Plan's claim procedure.

            (b)   The claimant may file with the Committee, not later than 60 days after receiving the Committee's written decision, a written notice of request for review of the Committee's decision, and the claimant or his representative may thereafter review relevant documents which relate to the claim and may submit written comments to the Committee. Not later than 60 days after receipt of such review request, the Committee shall render a written decision on the claim which decision shall include the specific reasons for the decision, including a reference to the Plan's specific provisions where appropriate and a description of any additional material or information necessary to perfect the claim, with an explanation of why such material or information is necessary.

            (c)   The foregoing 90- and 60-day periods during which the Committee must respond to the claimant may be extended by up to an additional 90 or 60 days, respectively, if special circumstances beyond the Committee's control so require and notice of such extension is given to the claimant prior to the expiration of such initial 90- or 60-day period, as the case may be. The extension notice will indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Committee expects to render a final decision.

        3.10    Independent Auditors.    The Committee shall appoint independent auditors for the Plan; provided, however, that in the absence of the Committee's appointment of auditors, the Company's regularly appointed independent auditors shall be the auditors for the Plan.

ARTICLE IV
Participation

        4.01    Participation Requirements.    Each Eligible Employee on the Effective Date who was an active participant in the Citigroup 401(k) Plan on the date immediately prior thereto shall be a Participant on the Effective Date. Thereafter, (a) an Eligible Employee who is a Full-Time Employee shall become a Participant on the first day of the first pay period which begins following such individual's initial employment as an Eligible Employee; and (b) an Eligible Employee who is a Part-Time Employee shall become a Participant on the first January 1 or July 1 following the end of the first Computation Period during which such Employee actually performs at least 1,000 Hours of Service.

        In no event shall any contributions under this Plan be made on behalf of any individual prior to the date such individual becomes a Participant in the Plan. Any contribution made on behalf of such Participant under this Plan shall only be made if the applicable requirements for any such contribution have been satisfied as set forth in the provisions of Article V.

        4.02    Transfer Among Employers.    A Participant who transfers employment from one Employer to another Employer shall continue to participate in the Plan if he is an Employee of such other Employer.

        4.03    Reemployment.    A Rehired Participant shall participate in the Plan as soon as administratively feasible after reemployment.

        4.04    Simultaneous Employment.    A Participant who is simultaneously employed as an Employee with more than one Employer during a Plan Year shall participate in the Plan as an Employee of all such Employers on the basis of his compensation from all such Employers (and contributions made on behalf of such Participant shall be made by each such Employer on the basis of the Participant's separate compensation from each such Employer).

        4.05    Effect of No Compensation.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant who, although continuing in the employment of an Employer throughout a Plan Year, receives no compensation from an Employer during such Plan Year, shall not be entitled to an allocation of any contributions pursuant to Article V for such Plan Year.

        4.06    Effect of Transfer of Employment.    A Participant who ceases to be an Employee of any Employer, by reason of his transfer to an Affiliated Company (as defined under paragraph (b) of the definition of such term in Section 2.01) which has not adopted the Plan, shall thereupon cease his active participation in the Plan (and his right to have employer contributions made on his behalf) except with respect to any contribution to which he may be entitled for the Plan Year during which his employment so transfers to an Affiliated Company. Such person shall be eligible to resume active participation in the Plan as of the first day of the Employee's first payroll period which coincides with or next follows his reemployment with an Employer.

17


        4.07    Effect of Employment Classification Change.    A Participant who, although continuing to be employed with an Employer, transfers to an employment classification which causes him to be excluded from the definition of the term "Employee" in Section 2.01, shall thereupon cease his active participation in the Plan (and his right to have contributions made on his behalf pursuant to Article V) except with respect to any contributions to which he may be entitled for the Plan Year during which his employment classification is so changed. Such person shall be eligible to resume active participation in the Plan as of the first day of the first payroll period which coincides with or next follows his transfer to an employment classification with an Employer which is included within the definition of the term "Employee" in Section 2.01.

        4.08    Condition of Participation.    Each Participant, as a condition of participation in the Plan, shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Plan and shall furnish to the Committee such pertinent information and execute such instruments as the Committee may require.

        4.09    Beneficiary Designation.    

            (1)   (a) Each Participant may designate, on forms to be furnished by the Committee, one or more primary Beneficiaries or alternate Beneficiaries to receive all or a specified part of his Accounts after his death, and he may change or revoke any such designation from time to time. No such designation, change or revocation shall be effective unless executed by the Participant and received by the Committee during the Participant's lifetime. If the Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary, or no Beneficiary survives him, the Participant's Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his surviving Spouse, if any, or if none, his estate. In the case of multiple Beneficiaries designated by the Participant, in the absence of instructions in the designation to the contrary, if one or more Beneficiaries should predecease the Participant, the amounts payable upon the death of the Participant shall be paid to the remaining Beneficiaries as if the surviving Beneficiaries were the only Beneficiaries designated by the Participant.

            (b)   Notwithstanding Subsection (a), if the Participant is married at the time of death, no designation of a Beneficiary other than the Participant's Spouse shall be effective unless the Participant has made a Qualified Election with respect to such designation.

        4.10    No Employment Rights Created.    The establishment of the Plan shall not give to any Employee the right to continuing employment, nor shall it limit the right of the Employer to discharge any Participant or otherwise deal with him without regard to the effect such action might have upon him as a Participant.

18


ARTICLE V
Contributions

        5.01    Citigroup 401(k) Plan Asset Transfer.    The Citigroup 401(k) Plan Asset Transfer shall occur on the Effective Date or as soon as practicable thereafter. The assets transferred pursuant thereto shall be allocated to Accounts, as described in Section 6.01 hereof, of specific Participants.

        5.02    Before-Tax Contributions.    

            (a)   Before-Tax Contributions shall be made during a Plan Year and shall be credited to the Before-Tax Contribution Account of each Participant who has filed an effective Deferral Election for such Plan Year.

            (b)   Before-Tax Contributions for a Participant who has filed an effective Deferral Election for a Plan Year shall be equal to the percentage of such Participant's Compensation authorized in his Deferral Election. Any such contribution shall be paid to the Trust within the time period required under ERISA and the regulations thereunder. For purposes of this Section 5.02(b), any Deferral Election made by a Participant with respect to the Citigroup 401(k) Plan that is in effect under such plan immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be treated as an effective Deferral Election under this Plan.

            (c)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total amount of Before-Tax Contributions made to a Participant's Account for any calendar year shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under Section 402(g) of the Code, less any amount previously contributed as elective deferrals pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Code by the Participant under any other plan or arrangement maintained by an Affiliated Company for such calendar year.

            (d)   Before-Tax Contributions shall be treated as having been made for a Plan Year for purposes of computing a Participant's Deferral Percentage (for ADP purposes) only if such contributions:

              (1)   are allocated to the Participant's Account as of a date within the current Plan Year, such allocation is not contingent upon the Participant's participation in the Plan or performance of services after such allocation date and such contributions are paid to the Plan no later than the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year to which the contribution relates; and

              (2)   relate to Compensation that either (i) would have been received by the Participant in the current Plan Year but for his Deferral Election or (ii) is attributable to services performed by the Participant in the current Plan Year and, but for the Participant's Deferral Election, would have been received by the Participant within 2-1/2 months after the close of such Plan Year.

19


            (e)   A Participant who has attained age 50 before the close of a Plan Year shall be eligible to make additional Before-Tax Contributions for such Plan Year under this Subsection to the extent such Before-Tax Contributions constitute catch-up contributions in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, Section 414(v) of the Code. Such catch-up contributions shall not be taken into account for purposes of Sections 402(g) and 415 of the Code or for purposes of the provisions of this Plan implementing such limitations as set forth in Sections 5.02(c) and 5.09. The Plan shall not be treated as failing to satisfy the provisions of the Plan implementing the requirements of Sections 401(k)(3), 410(b) or 416 of the Code, as applicable, by reason of the making of such catch-up contributions. Any catch-up contribution under this Subsection, and any Deferral Election relating to such contribution, shall be made in accordance with the rules and procedures adopted by the Committee.

        5.03    Deferral Election.    

            (a)   A Participant's Deferral Election shall be made in accordance with procedures established and uniformly applied by the Committee.

            (b)   A Participant may, in the form prescribed by the Committee, file a Deferral Election in accordance with the following rules:

              (1)   A Participant's Deferral Election may authorize Before-Tax Contributions in an amount equal to any whole percentage of Compensation from one percent (1%) to fifty percent (50%) (inclusive).

              (2)   A Participant may suspend or change the percentage of Eligible Pay contributed to the Plan as Before-Tax Contributions by filing a subsequent Deferral Election.

            (c)   A Participant's Deferral Election shall be effective as soon as administratively practicable following the date on which a complete and accurate filing is made with the Committee.

        5.04    Distribution of Excess Deferrals.    If a Participant makes Before-Tax Contributions for his taxable year in an amount which, when added to any amount previously contributed as elective deferrals pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Code by such Participant under any other plan or arrangement maintained by an Affiliated Company for such calendar year, exceeds the maximum elective deferral permitted under Section 402(g) of the Code, the excess deferral and any income allocable to such amount shall be distributed to the Participant no later than April 15th following the close of the Participant's taxable year. In lieu of a corrective distribution of an excess deferral after the end of the taxable year in which it is made, the excess deferral may be distributed during the same taxable year provided (a) the Participant designates the distribution as an excess deferral, (b) the corrective distribution is made after the date on which the Plan received the excess deferral and (c) the Plan designates the corrective distribution as a distribution of excess deferrals. The income allocable to excess deferrals distributed pursuant to this Section

20


shall be determined under any method permitted by Treasury regulations. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the correction of any excess deferrals described in this Section shall be interpreted and administered in accordance with Section 402(g) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations.

        5.05    Company Matching Contributions.    

            (a)   A Company Matching Contribution shall be made for a Plan Year and credited to the Company Matching Contribution Account for each Participant who:

              (1)   is employed by an Employer on the first day of such Plan Year;

              (2)   has Look-Back Earnings with respect to such Plan Year in an amount which is less than or equal to $100,000;

              (3)   is employed by an Affiliated Company on the last day of such Plan Year, provided, a Participant who incurs a Termination of Employment which constitutes a Qualifying Termination during such Plan Year shall become entitled to a Company Matching Contribution as of the last day of such Plan Year to the same extent such Participant would otherwise be entitled to such contribution if he were employed by an Affiliated Company as of the last day of such Plan Year; and

              (4)   is either

                (A)  a Full-Time Employee who has completed at least one full year of employment with his Employer prior to the last day of such Plan Year; or

                (B)  a Part-Time Employee who first became a Participant on or prior to July 1 of such Plan Year.

          For purposes of determining whether a Participant has satisfied the conditions of this Subsection (a)(4), an active participant in the Citigroup 401(k) Plan immediately prior to becoming a Participant on the Effective Date of this Plan shall receive credit under this Plan for service credited under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan.

            (b)   Except as provided in Subsection (c) below, for a Participant satisfying the conditions of Subsection (a) above,

              (1)   with Look-Back Earnings for the Plan Year in an amount which is less than or equal to $50,000, the Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year shall be a matching contribution equal to 300% of the Before-Tax Contributions made on behalf of such Participant for such Plan Year;

21


              (2)   with Look-Back Earnings for the Plan Year in an amount which is greater than $50,000 and less than or equal to $75,000, the Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year shall be a matching contribution equal to 200% of the Before-Tax Contributions made on behalf of such Participant for such Plan Year; and

              (3)   with Look-Back Earnings for the Plan Year in an amount which is greater than $75,000 and less than or equal to $100,000, the Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year shall be a matching contribution equal to 100% of the Before-Tax Contributions made on behalf of such Participant for such Plan Year;

      provided; however, in no event shall the amount of (i) any Before-Tax Contribution include any Catch-up Contribution, and (ii) any such Company Matching Contribution exceed the lesser of (A) 3% of the Participant's Compensation for such Plan Year or (B) $1,500; and further provided, the Company Matching Contribution for the 2002 Plan Year shall be a matching contribution equal to the applicable percentage rate determined under (1), (2) or (3) above of the sum of the Before-Tax Contributions under this Plan and the "Before-Tax Contributions" under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan made on behalf of such Participant for the 2002 Plan Year.

            (c)   If a Full-Time Employee first completes one full year of employment with his Employer during the Plan Year for which a Company Matching Contribution is being made, the Compensation used to determine the maximum amount of the Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year shall include only Compensation received by the Participant on or after the first day of the calendar month which follows the calendar month in which such year of employment was completed. If a Part-Time Employee first becomes a Participant on July 1 of the Plan Year for which a Company Matching Contribution is made, the Compensation used to determine the amount of the Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year shall include only Compensation received by the Participant on or after such July 1.

            (d)   In no event shall Compensation for purposes of determining a Participant's Company Matching Contribution for a Plan Year include any Compensation paid or payable by an entity or person other than an Employer; provided; however, any Company Matching Contribution for a Participant, who by reason of a transfer during a Plan Year becomes employed by an Affiliated Company which is not an Employer, shall be determined in accordance with the methodology set forth below:

              (1)   any amount received during such Plan Year from such Affiliated Company which would have qualified as Compensation, if it had been paid by an Employer rather than such Affiliated Company, shall be

22


      aggregated with the Compensation paid by the Employer for the Plan Year in which such transfer occurred (the "Aggregated Compensation");

              (2)   the Aggregated Compensation shall be subject to the annual compensation limitation under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code; and

              (3)   any Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year shall be equal to

                (A)  the Company Matching Contribution for such Plan Year otherwise determined in accordance with Subsection (b) based on such Participant's Aggregated Compensation, rather than such Participant's Compensation; multiplied by

                (B)  a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Participant was employed by the Employer during such Plan Year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Plan Year.

            (e)   A Company Matching Contribution made under this Section and credited to a Participant's Account shall be initially invested in the Travelers Class A Common Stock Fund; provided, however, that the Company shall have the discretion to instead invest some or all of such contributions in the Travelers Class B Common Stock Fund by giving advance notice thereof to the Trustee.

        5.06    Actual Deferral Percentage Test.    

            (a)   Before-Tax Contributions for a Plan Year shall be made in a non-discriminatory manner and shall satisfy either of the tests in (1) or (2) below:

              (1)   The ADP for Participants who are HCEs is not more than the ADP for Participants who were NHCEs in the prior Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or

              (2)   The excess of the ADP for Participants who are HCEs over the ADP of Participants who were NHCEs in the prior Plan Year is not more than 2 percentage points, and the ADP for the Participants who are HCEs is not more than the ADP for the Participants who were NHCEs in the prior Plan Year multiplied by 2.

            (b)   If for any Plan Year the ADP for Participants who are HCEs exceeds the percentage permitted under Subsection (a), the Plan Administrator may reduce the Before-Tax Contributions of HCEs and distribute any excess contributions, and any income allocable thereto, as provided below. Excess contributions shall mean the excess of (i) the aggregate amount of the Before-Tax Contributions of HCEs for the Plan Year, over (ii) the maximum amount of such contributions permitted under Subsection (a), determined by reducing the amount of such contributions of

23


    HCEs in order of their deferral percentages, beginning with the highest deferral percentage, until the applicable test is satisfied.

    Distributions of excess contributions shall be accomplished by reducing the Before-Tax Contributions of HCEs, beginning with the highest contributions (determined by dollar amount) in the manner set forth in section 401(k)(8)(c) of the Code, and continuing until the total amount of excess contributions has been distributed.

            (c)   Subject to Subsection (d), any excess contributions allocated to an HCE under Subsection (b), and any income allocable to such excess contributions determined in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations, shall be distributed to such HCE from his Before-Tax Contribution Account as soon as practicable after the end of the Plan Year in which the excess occurred, but in no event later than the last day of the following Plan Year.

            (d)   In lieu of a distribution pursuant to Subsection (c), an Employer may make Qualified Non-Elective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions that in combination with the Before-Tax Participant Contributions satisfy the ADP test. Alternatively, Before-Tax Participant Contributions may be re-characterized as after-tax employee contributions in any manner consistent with Treasury regulations.

            (e)   If an Affiliated Company aggregates this Plan with any other plan for the purpose of satisfying Section 410(b) of the Code (other than Section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Code), then all cash or deferred arrangements that are included in such plans shall be treated as one plan for purposes of the ADP test described above. In calculating the Deferral Percentage for any Participant who is an HCE, if any such Employee is eligible to have contributions under Section 401(k) of the Code made on his behalf under any other plan maintained by an Affiliated Company for any Plan Year, such Deferral Percentage shall be calculated for him for such Plan Year as though such contributions made on his behalf under any such other plan (and any other employer contributions required to be taken into account by the terms of such other plan in applying the requirements of Section 401(k)(3) of the Code) were made under this Plan.

            (f)    The amount of excess contributions distributed to a Participant for a Plan Year shall be reduced by any excess deferrals distributed to such Participant for the Participant's taxable year ending with or within such Plan Year.

            (g)   The Committee may implement rules consistent with the Code and Treasury Regulations, whereby Before-Tax Contributions by any Participant may be limited in advance to a lesser percentage than the otherwise allowable maximum. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the application of the ADP test described in this Section and the distribution of excess contributions shall be interpreted and administered in compliance with Section 401(k) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

24


        5.07    Actual Contribution Percentage Test.    

            (a)   Matching contributions for a Plan Year shall be made in a nondiscriminatory manner and shall satisfy either of the tests in (1) or (2) below.

              (1)   The ACP for Participants who are HCEs is not more than the ACP for Participants who were NHCEs in such prior Plan Year multiplied by 1.25, or

              (2)   The excess of the ACP for Participants who are HCEs over the ACP of the Participants who were NHCEs in the prior Plan Year is not more than 2 percentage points, and the ACP for Participants who are HCEs is not more than the ACP for Participants who were NHCEs in the prior Plan Year multiplied by 2.

            (b)   If for any Plan Year the ACP for Participants who are HCEs exceeds the percentage permitted under Subsection (a), the Plan Administrator may reduce the Company Matching Contributions of HCEs and distribute any excess aggregate contributions, and any income allocable thereto, as provided below. Excess aggregate contributions shall mean the excess of (i) the aggregate amount of Company Matching Contributions and Before-Tax Contributions treated as Company Matching Contributions for purposes of the test which are paid to the Trust on behalf of HCEs for the Plan Year, over (ii) the maximum amount of such contributions permitted under Subsection (a), determined by reducing the amount of such contributions of HCEs in order of their contribution percentages, beginning with the highest contribution percentage, until the applicable test is satisfied.

             Distributions of excess aggregate contributions shall be accomplished by reducing the Company Matching Contributions of HCEs, beginning with the highest contributions (determined by dollar amount) in the manner set forth in section 401(m)(6)(C) of the Code, and continuing until the total amount of excess aggregate contributions has been distributed.

             the excess aggregate contribution for each such HCE shall be computed as follows:

              (1)   by hypothetically reducing the Contribution Percentage of the HCEs with the highest Contribution Percentages to a maximum percentage that would satisfy the ACP test described in Subsection (a) if each HCE who designated a Contribution Percentage greater than such maximum percentage had instead received such maximum percentage;

              (2)   in order to compute the total amount of excess aggregate contributions, by determining the excess of (A) the total amount of matching contributions for all Participants who are HCEs, over (B) the reduced amount of matching contributions for such HCEs if their Contribution Percentages were subject to such maximum percentage; and

25


              (3)   by allocating the total excess aggregate contribution amount to the HCEs with the highest matching contribution amounts so that no HCE retains a matching contribution amount (after being reduced for his allocable excess aggregate contribution) which is above the computed maximum dollar amount.

            (c)   Subject to Subsection (d), any excess aggregate contributions allocated to an HCE under Subsection (b), plus any income allocable to such excess contributions, shall be forfeited, if forfeitable. Such contributions and income, if not forfeitable, shall be distributed to such HCEs as is necessary to satisfy the ACP test, as soon as practicable after the end of the Plan Year in which the excess occurs but not later than the end of the following Plan Year.

            (d)   In lieu of a distribution pursuant to Subsection (c), an Employer may make Qualified Non-Elective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions that in combination with the matching contributions satisfy the ACP test.

            (e)   If an Affiliated Company aggregates this Plan with any other plan for the purpose of satisfying Section 410(b) of the Code (other than Section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Code), then all such plans shall be treated as one plan for purposes of the ACP test described above.

            (f)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the application of the ACP test described in this Section and the forfeiture or distribution of excess aggregate contributions shall be interpreted and administered in compliance with Section 401(m) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

        5.08    Qualified Contributions.    In lieu of distributing excess contributions or excess aggregate contributions, the Employer may make either Qualified Non-Elective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, on behalf of Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees in order to satisfy either or both of the ADP and ACP tests.

        5.09    Limitation on Annual Additions.    

            (a)   The annual addition with respect to any Participant for a Plan Year shall not exceed the lesser of: (i) $40,000, as Adjusted or (ii) 100% of the Participant's Taxable Wages for such Plan Year.

            (b)   For purposes of this Section, annual addition means the sum of the following amounts allocable to a Participant's Accounts for a Plan Year:

              (1)   contributions made by the Employer,

              (2)   contributions made by a Participant,

              (3)   Forfeitures, if any, and

              (4)   any other amounts that are considered "annual additions" under Code Sections 415(c)(2).

26


             In no event shall annual additions include Rollover Contributions made by a Participant.

            (c)   In any case where a Participant is, or has been, included in another retirement plan of an Employer, the limitation set forth herein shall be reduced to the extent required under Code Section 415 if the reduction is not accomplished under such other retirement plan.

            (d)   If the annual additions for a Participant exceed the limits set forth in this Section as a result of: (i) the allocation of Forfeitures, (ii) a reasonable error in estimating a Participant's Taxable Wages, (iii) a reasonable error in determining the amount of elective deferrals (within the meaning of Code Section 402(g)(3)) that may be made with respect to any individual under the limits of Code Section 415, or (iv) other facts and circumstances which the Commissioner of the Service finds justifiable, the Committee shall return to the Participant any Before-Tax Contributions (including any earnings thereon) for the Plan Year to the extent such return would reduce the excess amount in the Participant's Accounts. Any remaining excess attributable to matching contributions and, if necessary, profit-sharing contributions shall be held in a suspense account and used to reduce matching and profit-sharing contributions for the next Plan Year (and succeeding Plan Years, as necessary) for such Participant. If such Participant is not covered under the Plan as of the end of any such Plan Year, the excess amount shall be held in a suspense account and used to reduce matching and profit-sharing contributions for the next Plan Year (and succeeding Plan Years as necessary) for all remaining Participants.

            (e)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the correction of any excess annual additions described in this Section shall be interpreted and administered in compliance with Section 415 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

        5.10    Rollover Contributions.    In accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee,

            (a)   a Participant may rollover to the Plan all or a portion of an "eligible rollover distribution" (as defined in Code Section 402(f)(2)(A)) received by such Participant, provided, such rollover contribution is made on or before the 60th day after receipt by the Participant, or such other date permitted under applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required to assure timely receipt by the Plan; or

            (b)   a Participant may elect a "direct trustee-to-trustee transfer" to the Plan within the meaning of Code Section 401(a)(31) of an eligible rollover distribution from either (1) a plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, or (2) an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code holding amounts

27


    attributable solely to a rollover contribution from a plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code.

        Any rollover contribution received by the Plan under this Section shall be credited to the Participant's Rollover Account, and such Participant shall be permitted to direct the investment of his Rollover Account in accordance with the provisions of Article VII. The Committee may condition acceptance of any rollover contribution by the Plan upon receipt of such documents as it may require.

Participant Investment Direction

        7.01    Investment Funds.    In order to allow each Participant to determine the manner in which his Accounts will be invested, the Trustee shall maintain, within the Trust, the Travelers Class A Common Stock Fund, the Travelers Class B Common Stock Fund and other Investment Funds.

Within each Participant's Account, the number of shares or units, and dollar amount, purchased for him in each Investment Fund shall be recorded. Each such Account shall also reflect the number of shares or units, and dollar amount, of each payment made in redemption of such shares or units by reason of a withdrawal or distribution from such Account or a transfer between Investment Funds. Pending investment or for other purposes of the Plan, including the payment of benefits hereunder, the Investment Funds may hold cash and short-term investments in accordance with guidelines prescribed by the Investment Committee. Any one or more of such Investment Funds may be eliminated, or new Investment Funds may be made available, at any time by the Investment Committee without consent by any Participant or Employer. Different Investment Funds may be made available to different groups of Participants, determined on an Employer-by-Employer basis, in the discretion of the Investment Committee.

        7.02    Contribution Investment Directions.    

            (a)   The assets allocated to a Participant's Account pursuant to the Citigroup 401(k) Plan Asset Transfer shall be initially invested in the same Investment Funds that they were invested in when they were assets allocated to the Participant's account in the Citigroup 401(k) Plan; provided, however, that assets invested in an investment fund under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan that is not an Investment Fund under this Plan shall be initially invested in the Smith Barney Money Funds Cash Portfolio.

            (b)   For purposes of this Section 7.02, any direction made by a Participant with respect to the manner in which any contributions are to be initially invested among the investment funds under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan that is in effect under such plan immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be treated as an effective direction under this Plan; provided, however, any direction to invest in an investment fund under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan that is not an Investment Fund under this Plan shall be deemed to be a direction to initially invest in the Smith Barney Money Funds Cash Portfolio.

            (c)   Each Participant shall be allowed to direct the manner in which any Before-Tax Contributions, Supplemental Company Contributions and Rollover Account contributions will be initially invested among the Investment Funds. A Participant shall be permitted to invest such contributions in any Investment Fund or combination of Investment Funds, as determined pursuant to his investment elections; provided, however, (i) in no event shall a Participant be permitted to

31


    invest such contributions in the Citigroup Common Stock Fund, and (ii) in no event shall a Participant, other than a Participant with an election as of the Effective Date to invest such contributions in the Van Kampen American Capital Comstock Fund or Van Kampen American Capital Emerging Growth Fund, be permitted to invest such contributions in such Investment Funds. Investment elections must be filed with the Committee, in such form as the Committee shall prescribe, and shall be made in conjunction with the Participant's enrollment in the Plan. Such direction may be made either in written form, computer transmission or through telephonic means established by the Committee to provide Participants with the opportunity to effect such transactions.

            (d)   Each Participant shall be permitted, on a basis determined by the Committee, to change the manner in which future contributions will be invested among the Investment Funds. Such direction shall be effective as soon as administratively practicable following the date on which the Committee receives a complete and accurate direction from the Participant.

            (a)   Each Participant shall be permitted, on a basis determined by the Committee, to direct the investment of his Accounts among the Investment Funds. A Participant shall be permitted to invest his Accounts in any Investment Fund or combination of Investment Funds, as determined pursuant to his investment elections; provided, however, in no event shall a Participant be permitted to transfer amounts into the Citigroup Common Stock Fund, Van Kampen American Capital Comstock Fund or Van Kampen American Capital Emerging Growth Fund. Investment elections must be filed with the Committee, in such form as the Committee shall prescribe. Such direction may be made either in written form, computer transmission or through telephonic means established by the Committee to provide Participants with the opportunity to effect such transactions.

            (b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing,

              (1)   Company Matching Contributions made on behalf of a Participant (and any earnings thereon) which are initially invested in either the Travelers Class A Common Stock Fund or the Travelers Class B Common Stock Fund shall not be subject to an investment transfer election until the end of the 5th Plan Year which follows the Plan Year for which such Company Matching Contribution was made, or if earlier, until the date on which such Participant attains age 55.

              (2)   upon a Participant's Termination of Employment, any amounts that are not yet vested pursuant to Section 9.01 shall be invested as directed by the Company (without regard to any election made by the Participant with respect to the vested portion of the Participant's Accounts), until the earlier of (i) the date a forfeiture occurs, or (ii) the date a Participant becomes re-employed prior to forfeiture of such amounts pursuant to Section 9.03(a).

        7.06    Investment Direction Responsibility Resides in Participants.    

            (a)   Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan or instrument evidencing the Trust, neither the Trustee, the Committee, nor the Investment Committee shall have any authority, discretion, responsibility or liability with respect to the Participant's selection of an Investment Fund in which their Accounts will be invested. Except for contributions expressly required to be invested in the Travelers Class A Common Stock Fund or the Travelers Class B Common Stock Fund under the terms of the Plan, the entire authority, discretion, responsibility and any results attributable with respect to the investment of a Participant's Accounts shall be the responsibility of the individual Participant.

            (b)   This Plan is intended to constitute a plan described in Section 404(c) of ERISA and Department of Labor Regulations Section 2550.404(c)-1.

            (c)   Investment instructions shall be communicated by the Participant in accordance with reasonable procedures established by the Committee.

Such application for a hardship withdrawal shall be in written form, or such other means acceptable to the Committee, to provide Participants with the opportunity to effect such transactions. Any such hardship withdrawal shall be processed as soon as administratively practicable in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. For purposes of this Section, any hardship withdrawal under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan within twelve months prior to the Effective Date of this Plan, shall be deemed to be a hardship withdrawal under this Plan.

Other costs may qualify as an immediate and heavy financial need under the hardship withdrawal policy adopted by the Committee, as memorialized in the summary plan description of the Plan and any related administrative documents.

            (b)   For purposes of this Section, the amount of any hardship withdrawal shall be deemed to be "necessary to satisfy the financial need" if: (1) such amount is not in excess of the immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant, including any federal, state or local taxes and penalties on such withdrawal; (2) such Participant has obtained all withdrawals and distributions, other than hardship withdrawals, and all nontaxable loans currently available under the Plan and all other plans maintained by the Employer or any Affiliated Company; (3) all Before-Tax Contributions (and any other salary reduction contributions) made on his behalf to the Plan or any other plan maintained by the Employer or any Affiliated Company (excluding contributions to a welfare benefit plan) shall be suspended for 12 months after the receipt of such hardship withdrawal; and (4) the maximum amount of (i) Before-Tax Contributions which may be made under Section 402(g) of the Code, and (ii) Catch-up Contributions which may be made under Section 414(v) of the Code, under the Plan or and any other tax-qualified plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Company, for the Participant's taxable year immediately following the taxable year in which the

35


    Participant received such hardship withdrawal shall be reduced by the amount of Before-Tax Contributions and Catch-up Contributions, respectively, made for the taxable year of the hardship withdrawal.

            (c)   In no event shall a hardship withdrawal under this Section be available from any of the following Accounts: Company Matching Contribution Account, Company Matching Contribution Dividend Account, Associates Contribution Account, QMAC Account and QVEC Account.

            (d)   The Committee's determination of the existence of a Participant's immediate and heavy financial hardship and the amount which may be withdrawn shall be made in accordance with Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations issued with respect thereto, and shall be final and binding upon the Participant. Nothing contained in this Section shall obligate the Committee to supervise or otherwise verify that amounts withdrawn hereunder are applied in the manner specified in the Participant's hardship withdrawal application.

        8.02    Withdrawal After Age 591/2.    A Participant shall be entitled to withdraw, in a single lump sum, all or any portion of his vested Accounts as soon as practicable after the date on which the Committee approves the Participant's withdrawal application demonstrating that the Participant has attained age fifty-nine and one-half while employed by an Affiliated Company as an Employee. Such application may be made in written form (or such other means acceptable to the Committee) to provide Participants with the opportunity to effect such transactions. In no event shall a withdrawal under this Section be available from the QVEC Account.

        8.03    Other Withdrawals.    

            (a)   A Participant may, by application to the Committee, elect to withdraw in a single lump sum all or any portion of his interest in his After-Tax Contribution Account and/or Rollover Account. Such application must be made in written form, or such other means acceptable to the Committee, to provide such Participant with the opportunity to effect such transactions. Such withdrawal shall be processed as soon as administratively practicable in accordance with procedures established by the Committee.

            (b)   With regard to a Participant with an Account described in any Appendix, a Participant may elect to make a withdrawal from the vested portion of any such Account prior to incurring a Termination of Employment to the extent permitted under the provisions of such Appendix.

            (c)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, to the extent required under Section 1.401-1(b)(1) of the Treasury Regulations and applicable Revenue Rulings, no amount attributable to employer contributions under the Plan made less than 2 years prior to the date of withdrawal may be withdrawn under this Section, unless the Participant making such withdrawal has been a Participant for at least 60 months. Should Congress provide by statute, or the Internal Revenue

36


    Service provide by regulation or ruling, that any or all of the conditions set forth in this Section are no longer necessary for the Plan to meet the requirements of Section 401(a) or other applicable provisions of the Code then in effect, such conditions shall immediately become void and shall no longer apply, without the necessity of further amendment to the Plan.

        8.04    General Rules.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 8.03, all withdrawals by a Participant shall be subject to the following conditions:

            (a)   A Participant shall not replace any amounts withdrawn under this Article VIII;

            (b)   The amount of any withdrawal shall be based on the value of a Participant's Accounts as of the Valuation Date which coincides with such withdrawal, to the extent administratively practicable.

            (d)   A withdrawal may only be made under this Article VIII by a Participant prior to his Termination of Employment; and

            (e)   A withdrawal shall be made in accordance with the rules and procedures adopted by the Committee as memorialized in the summary plan description and any related administrative documents.

        8.05    Withdrawals in Employer Stock or Citigroup Common Stock.    Any Participant who makes a withdrawal under this Article VIII, other than a hardship withdrawal under Section 8.02, may elect to receive payment in the form of Employer Stock or Citigroup Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.09.

        8.06    Loans.    Loans shall be made available to Participants in a uniform, nondiscriminatory manner and on a reasonably equivalent basis. Loans shall not be made to Highly Compensated Employees in an amount representing a percentage of such Participants' vested interests in their Accounts greater than the percentage made available to other Participants. The Committee shall adopt rules and procedures for granting and administering loans under the Plan, as memorialized in the summary plan description and any related administrative documents, subject to the requirements set forth below.

            (a)   Loans transferred to this Plan pursuant to the Citigroup 401(k) Plan Asset Transfer shall be treated as loans under this Plan, and will retain all of the material features (e.g. interest rate and repayment schedule) that such loans had under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan.

            (b)   Any Participant may apply for a loan from his Accounts, in written form or by such other means acceptable to the Committee. The Participant's application shall specify the total amount of the loan. Each loan to a Participant shall be evidenced by a legally enforceable agreement in writing, or another form approved by the

37


    Service, specifying the loan amount, term and repayment schedule. A loan processing fee may be deducted from a Participant's Accounts in connection with the issuance of the loan to such Participant. The basis for granting a loan will be those factors considered by commercial lenders in the business of making similar loans. Any action on a Participant's loan application by the Committee shall be final.

            (c)   At any time, no more than two loans under the Plan may be outstanding to a Participant. Only one residential loan may be outstanding to a Participant at any time.

            (d)   Loans made pursuant to this Section (when added to the outstanding balance of all other loans made by the Plan to the Participant) shall be limited to the lesser of:

              (1)   $50,000 reduced by the excess (if any) of the highest outstanding balance of loans from the Plan to the Participant during the one year period ending on the day before the date on which such loan is made, over the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan to the Participant on the date on which such loan was made; or

              (2)   50% of the aggregate value of the vested balance of all the Participant's Accounts (on the date the loan is made).

            (e)   Each loan shall bear interest at a reasonable rate which shall be the prime rate of interest, as published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month in which the loan application is received, plus one percent (1%).

            (f)    Each loan to a Participant under this Section shall be adequately secured. In no event shall more than 50% of such Participant's vested balance in his Accounts be considered security for any such loan.

            (g)   In the event a Participant fails to make a required repayment under his loan agreement with the Plan, such delinquency shall constitute an event of default if the Participant does not cure such delinquency as of the end of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which such required payment was missed, or such other cure period prescribed by the Committee.

            (h)   Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, a Participant's interest in his Accounts shall not be reduced when he receive a loan, but if such Participant defaults on his loan or otherwise commences distribution under the Plan before he has repaid such loan in full, such distribution shall be offset and reduced for any principal and interest that he then owes the Plan.

38


ARTICLE IX

        9.01    Vesting.    

            (a)   A Participant's interest in any of the following Accounts established on his behalf shall be fully vested at all times:

      Before-Tax Contribution Account
      After-Tax Contribution Account
      Company Matching Contribution Dividend Account
      Supplemental Company Contribution Account
      Rollover Account
      QNEC Account

            (b)   A Participant's interest in any Company Matching Contribution Account or Prior Travelers Employer Match Account established on his behalf shall vest in accordance with the following schedule:

Completed Years
of Service

  Percentage Vested
 
less than 3   0 %
3 or more   100 %

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant's interest in his Company Matching Contribution Account or his Prior Travelers Employer Match Account shall become one-hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable if, while employed by an Affiliated Company as an Employee, such Participant attains age 55, dies or terminates employment while Disabled pursuant to Company policy.

            (c)   A Participant's interest in any Associates Contribution Account established on his behalf shall vest in accordance with the terms of Appendix C.

            (d)   A Participant's interest in any Profit Sharing Account established on his behalf shall become one-hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable upon completion of five (5) Years of Service.

        9.02    Year of Service.    

            (a)   An Employee shall be credited with a Year of Service for each Plan Year during which such Employee performed at least 1,000 Hours of Service. For purposes of calculating Years of Service, an Employee shall be deemed to have performed 45 Hours of Service, in accordance with Department of Labor regulations Section 2530.200b-3(e), for each week of employment during which such Employee

39


    actually performs one Hour of Service; provided; however, an Employee on an unpaid Authorized Leave of Absence shall be deemed to have performed 45 Hours of Service in each week of such Authorized Leave of Absence up to a maximum of 52 weeks.

            (b)   An Employee who was an active participant in the Citigroup 401(k) Plan on the date immediately prior to the Effective Date and became a Participant in this Plan on the Effective Date shall be credited with Years of Service for all vesting service credited prior to the Effective Date under the terms of the Citigroup 401(k) Plan.

            (c)   An Employee who was employed, prior to the Effective Date, by Citigroup Inc. or a member of the controlled group that included Citigroup Inc., but who is not covered by (b) above, shall be credited with Years of Service for all vesting service credited to such Employee prior to the Effective Date under the terms of the Citigroup 401(k) Plan; provided, however, that if such Employee is hired by the Company after incurring (5) consecutive break-in-service years with respect to the controlled group that includes Citigroup Inc. with no vested interest in his accrued benefit under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan, such Employee shall not be credited with any prior vesting service credit. For purposes of calculating break-in-service years under the preceding sentence: (1) the Employee shall be deemed to have terminated service with the controlled group including Citigroup Inc. as of the earlier of (i) the Employee's actual termination from service date; or (ii) the Effective Date; and (2) a break-in-service year will be an annual period commencing on the deemed termination date determined in (1), or on the anniversary thereof, during which the Employee performs fewer than 500 Hours of Service for the controlled group that includes Citigroup Inc.

        9.03    Forfeiture of Non-vested Interest.    

            (a)   A Participant's non-vested interest, if any, shall be forfeited at the end of a Plan Year during which a Participant shall have incurred five (5) consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service. In the event that a Participant ceases to be employed by the Employer and, before the end of the period set forth in the preceding sentence, receives a lump-sum distribution of the vested portion of the Participant's Account pursuant to the terms of the Plan, then the portion of the Participant's Account that is not vested shall be treated as a forfeiture as of the last day of the Plan Year in which the Participant ceased to be employed by the Employer. If such former Participant later becomes an Employee and has not, as of the last day of the Plan Year in which the Participant again becomes an Employee, incurred five (5) consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, such Participant's Account will be restored to the dollar value it had on the date of distribution if the Participant repays to the Plan the full amount of the distribution within the earlier of (1) five years after the date in which the Participant again becomes an Employee, or (2) the close of the first period of five consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service commencing after the distribution.

40


            (b)   The portion of any matching contributions that was made in respect of any excess deferral, excess contribution or excess annual addition which was distributed under Article V (including any earnings thereon) shall be forfeited immediately.

        9.04    Breaks in Service.    If a Rehired Participant who previously incurred a Termination of Employment with less than a 100% vested interest in his Accounts is reemployed by an Employer after incurring five (5) consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, and such Rehired Participant does not have any nonforfeitable right to an accrued benefit derived from employer contributions within the meaning of Section 411(a)(6)(D) of the Code, Years of Service credited prior to such Break in Service shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the vesting percentage for such Participant's Accounts after his Break in Service.

        9.05    Application of Forfeitures.    The amount of any Forfeiture forfeited from Participants' Accounts during a Plan Year shall be applied, at the Company's discretion, to pay the Plan's administration expenses or to reduce the contribution from Employers which would otherwise be required for any matching contributions or profit-sharing contributions made under the Plan.

        9.06    Deemed Distribution.    If a Participant has no vested interest in his Accounts on the date of his Termination of Employment, his Accounts shall be deemed to have been distributed from the Plan on such date in accordance with Article X.

ARTICLE X
Distribution of Benefits

        10.01    Normal Retirement.    A Participant shall be entitled to commence distribution from his Accounts under the Plan following any Termination of Employment on or after his attainment of Normal Retirement Age. A Participant may elect to defer the commencement of any such distribution, subject to the provisions of Section 10.06. The amount of such distribution shall be based on the value of a Participant's Accounts as of the Valuation Date which coincides with such distribution, to the extent administratively practicable.

        10.02    Other Termination of Employment.    A Participant shall be entitled to commence distribution from his Accounts under the Plan on or after any Termination of Employment prior to his attainment of Normal Retirement Age. A Participant may elect to defer the commencement of any such distribution, subject to the provisions of Section 10.06. The amount of such distribution shall be based on the value of a Participant's Accounts as of the Valuation Date which coincides with such distribution, to the extent administratively practicable.

        10.03    Statutory Commencement of Benefits.    Subject to the provisions of Section 10.15, unless a Participant elects otherwise, distribution of benefits shall begin no later than the 60th day after the close of the Plan Year in which the later of the following events occur:

            (a)   the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age;

            (b)   the tenth anniversary of the year in which the Participant commenced participation in the Plan, or;

            (c)   the Participant incurs a Termination of Employment.

        10.04    Forms of Payment.    A distribution from a Participant's Account shall be in the form described in Section 15.04(b), unless such Participant elects to receive such distribution in a form described below:

            (a)   monthly, quarterly, semiannual, or annual installments payable over a period not in excess of such Participant's life expectancy or the joint-and-survivor's life expectancy of the Participant and his Beneficiary (determined as of the date his benefits commence, notwithstanding any change in the Participant's Beneficiary thereafter); or

            (b)   a single lump sum or a partial lump sum.

        10.05    Small Accounts.    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if the aggregate balance of the Participant's Accounts is not more than $5,000 as of the date of his Termination of Employment or death, such Participant's Accounts shall be paid by the Trustee to the Participant or, in the case of death, his Beneficiary as soon as administratively practicable following his Termination of Employment or death, as applicable.

42


        10.06    Minimum Distributions.    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, minimum distributions from a Participant's Accounts shall commence no later than the April 1 of the calendar year following the later of (i) the calendar year in which such Participant attains age 701/2, or (ii) the calendar year in which such Participant incurs a Termination of Employment, or such other required beginning date as otherwise required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

            (a)   Such minimum distribution shall be over a period not extending beyond such Participant's life expectancy or the life expectancy of the Participant and his Beneficiary. Applicable life expectancies will be determined under the unisex life expectancy multiples under Treasury Regulation section 1.72-9.

            (b)   For purposes of this Section, the life expectancy of the Participant and the Participant's Spouse shall not be subject to recalculation, and in no event shall the life expectancy of a non-Spouse Beneficiary be subject to recalculation. If a Participant dies after commencing minimum distributions under this Section, any remaining interest in his Accounts shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in effect prior to his death.

        With respect to distributions under the Plan made for calendar years beginning on or after January 1, 2001, the Plan shall apply the minimum distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code in accordance with the regulations under Section 401(a)(9) that were proposed on January 17, 2001, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary. This amendment shall continue in effect until the end of the last calendar year beginning before the effective date of final regulations under Section 401(a)(9) or such other date as may be specified in guidance published by the Service.

        10.07    Post-Termination Contributions.    If a contribution is made on behalf of a Participant following his Termination of Employment and after his Accounts have been distributed in full to him (or to his Beneficiary in the case of his death), such Participant (or his Beneficiary) shall receive a supplemental payment equal to such contribution, including any earnings thereon, as soon as practicable after the date of such contribution.

        10.08    Death.    

            (a)   If a Participant dies before commencing distribution of his Accounts, unless such Participant's Beneficiary elects otherwise, the entire interest in such Accounts shall be distributed to his Beneficiary or, if no Beneficiary has been designated, his estate as soon as practicable. In accordance with the requirements of Section 4.09, if the Participant is married at the time of death, such distribution shall be made to the surviving Spouse, unless the Participant has made a Qualified Election with respect to the designation of a Beneficiary other than his Spouse.

    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, in accordance with Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder, the entire interest in such Accounts shall be distributed no later than the December 31 of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the Participant's date of death;

43


    provided; however, if any portion of such Accounts is payable to, or for the benefit of, a Beneficiary designated by the Participant, such portion may be distributed (in accordance with Treasury Regulations) over the life expectancy of such Beneficiary

              (1)   commencing not later than the December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant died; or

              (2)   if such Beneficiary designated by the Participant is the Participant's Spouse, commencing not later than the date on which such Participant would have attained age 701/2. If such surviving Spouse dies before distributions to such Spouse begins, the entire interest in such Accounts shall be distributed no later than the December 31 of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of such Spouse's date of death.

            (b)   The Committee may require and rely upon such proof of death and such evidence of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the value of the Account of a deceased Participant as the Committee may deem proper and its determination of death and of the right of such Beneficiary or other person to receive payment shall be conclusive.

        10.09    Distribution in Employer or Citigroup Securities.    

            (a)   To the extent any portion of a Participant's Accounts are invested in the Travelers Class A Common Stock Fund, Travelers Class B Common Stock Fund or the Citigroup Common Stock Fund, and such Participant elects a single lump sum or installment form of payment, the Participant may elect to receive any such distribution with respect to such portion in whole shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock, Travelers Class B Common Stock or Citigroup Common Stock, as the case may be, with a cash payment for any remaining fractional shares. Such election shall be made in written form (or such other means acceptable to the Committee) to provide Participants with the opportunity to effect such transactions.

            (b)   In the case of a distribution following a Participant's death under Section 10.08, such Participant's Beneficiary may elect to receive such distribution in shares of Employer Stock and/or Citigroup Common Stock in the same manner provided in subsection (a).

        10.10    Assignment, Alienation of Benefits.    

            (a)   No benefit under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be void; and no such benefit shall in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the person entitled to such benefit, except in the case of (1) the creation, assignment, or recognition of any right to any benefit payable with respect to a Participant pursuant to a "qualified domestic relations order" as defined in Section 414(p) of

44


    the Code; and (2) an offset of a Participant's benefit payable under the Plan against any amount that such Participant is ordered to pay to the Plan if the order to pay arises from a crime or fiduciary breach relating to the Plan pursuant to Code Section 401(a)(13)(C).

            (b)   If any person entitled to receive any payment under the Plan is physically, mentally or legally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt thereof, and no legal representative has been appointed for him, the Committee, in its discretion, may (but shall not be required to) cause any sum otherwise payable to him to be paid to such one or more as may be chosen by the Committee from the following: the Beneficiaries, if any, designated by such person, the institution maintaining him, or his Spouse, children, parents or other relatives by blood or marriage; and any payment so made shall be a complete discharge of all liability under the Plan with respect to any such payment.

        10.11    Payment Satisfies Claims.    Any payment to or for the benefit of any Participant or his legal representative or Beneficiary or person named in Section 10.10(b) in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims hereunder against the Trustee, the Committee and the Employer, any of whom may require such payee, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipted release therefor.

        10.12    Undeliverable Benefits.    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if benefits become distributable under the Plan and the Committee is unable to locate the Participant or Beneficiary to whom the benefits are payable after a reasonable effort to ascertain the whereabouts of such Participant or Beneficiary, the Accounts of such Participant or Beneficiary shall be subject to forfeiture as of the end of the Plan Year which follows the Plan Year in which such benefits first became payable (or as soon as practicable thereafter). A record of the undeliverable amount shall be maintained and if such Participant or Beneficiary subsequently makes proper claim to the Committee for such amount, the amount of each such Account shall be restored, and shall be distributed to such Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

        10.13    Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.    All rights and benefits, including elections, provided to a Participant in this Plan shall be subject to the rights afforded to any alternate payee under a "qualified domestic relations order" as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code. Furthermore, a distribution to an alternate payee shall be permitted if such distribution is authorized by a qualified domestic relations order. An alternate payee may receive a distribution of the rights and benefits assigned by such qualified domestic relations order upon the determination by the Committee that such order is a qualified domestic relations order, without regard to whether the Participant is otherwise eligible to receive a distribution under the Plan or whether the Participant has attained earliest retirement age, even if the affected Participant has not incurred a Termination of Employment. For purposes of this Section, 'alternate payee' and 'earliest retirement age' shall have the meanings assigned to such terms as set forth in Section 414(p) of the Code.

45


        10.14    Direct Rollovers.    

            (a)   Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a distributee's election under this Section, a distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Committee, to have any portion of an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) under the Plan paid directly to an eligible retirement plan, within the meaning of Sections 402(c)(8) and 402(c)(9) of the Code, specified by the distributee.

            (b)   Direct rollovers under this Section shall be made in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee.

            (c)   For purposes of this Section, a distributee may include (1) a Participant, (2) a Participant's Spouse as provided under Section 402(c)(9) of the Code, or (3) an alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order who is the Spouse or former Spouse of a Participant as provided under Section 402(e)(1) of the Code.

            (d)   For purposes of this Section, 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 includible 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 includible in gross income and the portion of such distribution which is not so includible.

        10.15    Claim for Benefits.    

            (a)   A Participant must file a claim for benefits before payment of benefits shall commence under the Plan, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.401(a)-14(a) of the Treasury Regulations. The claim for benefits shall be made in writing, or such other means acceptable to the Committee and permitted by any applicable Treasury Regulations or guidance from the Service.

            (b)   The claim for benefits shall specify the date on which benefit payments under the Plan are to commence, consistent with the Plan's provisions for commencement of benefits.

            (c)   The claim for benefits shall include a certification by the Participant under the Plan either (1) that the Participant is not married or (2) that the Participant is married and the name and date of birth of the individual to whom the Participant is married. The certification by the Participant as to the Participant's marital status shall be binding upon the Participant.

ARTICLE XI

        11.01    Participants May Direct Vote of Employer Stock and Citigroup Common Stock.    

            (a)   The Trustee shall have no discretion or authority to vote Travelers Class A Common Stock , Travelers Class B Common Stock and Citigroup Common Stock which are allocated to the Account of a Participant by virtue of the Account's investment in the Travelers Class A Common Stock Fund, the Travelers Class B Common Stock Fund or the Citigroup Common Stock Fund, as the case may be, on any matter presented for a vote by the stockholders of the Company, except in accordance with the timely directions received by the Trustee from Participants acting in their capacity as Named Fiduciaries. Upon timely receipt of such instructions, the Trustee shall vote such shares in accordance with the directions which have been received by the Trustee from Participants.

            (b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall disregard Participant instructions and vote the shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock, Travelers Class B Common Stock and Citigroup Common Stock as directed by the otherwise applicable fiduciary, if voting such shares according to Participant instructions would otherwise constitute a violation of the Company's fiduciary duties under ERISA.

        11.02    Trustee Vote of Certain Shares of Employer Stock and Citigroup Common Stock.    

            (a)   Shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock, Travelers Class B Common Stock and Citigroup Common Stock for which the Participant's voting instructions were not timely received by the Trustee shall be voted by the Trustee in the same proportion as the shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock, Travelers Class B Common Stock and Citigroup Common Stock for which Participants' voting instructions were received, to the extent permitted by Section 404(a)(1)(D) of ERISA and other applicable law.

            (b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall disregard Section 11.02(a) and vote the shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock, Travelers Class B Common Stock and Citigroup Common Stock as directed by the otherwise applicable fiduciary, if voting such shares in accordance with the provisions thereunder would otherwise constitute a violation of the Company's fiduciary duties under ERISA.

        11.03    Notice and Participant Instructions with Respect to Employer Stock and Citigroup Common Stock.    The Investment Committee shall establish procedures for giving adequate notice to Participants for the exercise of any voting rights under this Article XI , and for transmitting such instructions to the Trustee, who shall vote shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock, Travelers Class B Common Stock and Citigroup Common Stock in accordance with Section 11.01.

ARTICLE XII
Amendment and Termination

        12.01    Authority to Amend and Procedure.    The Company may amend, modify or terminate the Plan at any time, to any extent that it may deem advisable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall increase the duties or liabilities of the Trustee without its written consent. Except as permitted by Treasury Regulations, no Plan amendment or transaction having the effect of a Plan amendment (such as a merger, plan transfer or similar transaction) shall be effective to the extent it eliminates or reduces any "Section 411(d)(6) protected benefit" or adds or modifies conditions relating to "Section 411(d)(6) protected benefits," the result of which is a further restriction on such benefit, unless such protected benefits are preserved with respect to benefits accrued as of the later of the adoption date or effective date of the amendment. "Section 411(d)(6) protected benefits" are benefits described in Section 411(d)(6)(A), which are early retirement benefits and retirement-type subsidies, and optional forms of benefit.

        12.02    Authority to Terminate and Procedure.    The Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, but it reserves the right at any time to terminate the Plan in its entirety. The Company may also completely discontinue contributions to the Plan. Each Employer expects to continue its participation in the Plan indefinitely, but each Employer reserves the right at any time to discontinue its participation in the Plan and cease contributions on behalf of its Employees. The Plan shall terminate in its entirety as of the date specified by the Company to the Trustee in a written notice executed in the manner of an amendment. In the event of any such termination or a complete discontinuance of contributions under the Plan, no further contributions shall be made by either Participants or the Employers, but the Plan shall otherwise be administered as though it were in full force and effect. Upon any full or partial termination or complete discontinuance of contributions under the Plan, all amounts credited to the affected Participants' Accounts shall become one-hundred percent (100%) vested and shall not thereafter be subject to forfeiture, and all unallocated amounts shall be allocated to the accounts of all Participants in accordance with the provisions hereof. If the Trust is subsequently terminated, the provisions of Section 12.03 shall then apply.

        12.03    Termination of the Trust.    If the Plan is terminated pursuant to Section 12.02 and the Company determines that the Trust should be terminated, written notice of such determination shall be given to the Employers, the Committee and the Trustee, and the value of all Accounts of Participants shall be distributed through lump-sum payments as promptly as practicable; provided, that no amounts shall be distributed prior to the earliest date permitted under applicable law.

        12.04    Partial Termination of the Plan.    If at any time the Plan is terminated with respect to any group of Employees under such circumstances as to constitute a partial termination of the Plan within the meaning of Section 411(d)(3) of the Code, no further contributions shall be made by or on behalf of the Participants affected by the partial termination, but the Plan shall otherwise be administered, and the amounts standing to such Participants' credit shall be payable, as though such partial termination had not occurred; provided, that the Company, in its discretion, may direct that an amount equal to the portion of the

48


Plan that is allocable to the Participants as to whom such termination occurred be segregated by the Trustee as a separate plan and trust, and that such separate plan and trust be applied for the benefit of such Participants in the manner described in this Article XII.

49


ARTICLE XIII
Miscellaneous

        13.01    Merger, Consolidation, Transfer of Assets.    In the event of any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets or liabilities to, any other plan, each Participant shall be entitled to receive a benefit immediately after such merger, consolidation or transfer (if such other plan then terminated) which is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before such merger, consolidation or transfer, if this Plan had then terminated.

        13.02    Reversion of Contributions.    Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, to the extent a contribution is made under the Plan by an Employer by a good-faith mistake of fact, or a deduction with respect to a contribution is not allowed for an Employer under Section 404 of the Code, the Trustee shall repay to such Employer that portion of such Employer's contribution hereunder which was made pursuant to such mistake of fact or for which such deduction was not allowed; provided, such repayment shall be made within one year after such mistaken contribution is made or such deduction is disallowed, as the case may be.

        13.03    Qualified Military Service.    Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits and service credit with respect to qualified military service will be provided in accordance with Section 414(u) of the Code.

        13.04    United Kingdom Expatriate Service.    In no event may a Participant who is or has been employed as an Employee in an expatriate classification in the United Kingdom be granted a withdrawal for, or a loan secured by, any amounts attributable to contributions based on compensation earned while employed in the United Kingdom.

        13.05    Continued Applicability of Citigroup 401(k) Plan.    Certain Participants on the Effective Date derive a portion of their account balance from the benefit accrued under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan. The terms of this Plan attempt to deal comprehensively with the treatment of such account balances, especially in Sections 5.01, 6.01 and the Appendices. There may be some instances where, in order to assure that a Participant's account balance derived from the Citigroup 401(k) Plan and/or the rights and features with respect thereto are not inadvertently cut back or enhanced, reference should be made to the Citigroup 401(k) Plan as in effect on the Effective Date, and for that limited purpose, such plan is incorporated by reference.

50


ARTICLE XIV

        14.01    Special Definitions.    For purposes of this Article XIV, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

            (b)   "Determination Date" means, for any Plan Year, the last day of the preceding Plan Year.

            (c)   "Required Aggregation Group" means for a given Plan Year, the Travelers Pension Plan and all other plans of the Affiliated Companies which, in the aggregate, meet the requirements of the definition contained in Section 416(g)(2)(A)(i) of the Code.

            (d)   "Permissive Aggregation Group" means, for a given Plan Year, the Travelers Pension Plan and all other plans of the Affiliated Companies which may be aggregated in accordance with Section 416(g)(2)(A)(ii) of the Code.

            (e)   "Top Heavy Plan" means, with respect to any Plan Year, any defined contribution plan if, as of the Determination Date, the aggregate of the Accounts of Key Employees under the Plan exceeds 60 percent of the aggregate of the Accounts of all Participants under the Plan. For purposes of determining if the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the value of Participants' Accounts will be computed on the most recent Valuation Date within a 12-month period ending on the Determination Date. If the Plan is required to be included in a Required Aggregation Group and such Required Aggregation Group is a Top Heavy Group, this Plan shall be a Top Heavy Plan, unless the Plan or such Top Heavy Group is itself part of a Permissive Aggregation Group which is not a Top Heavy Group. For purposes of this Section, a Participant's Account shall not include qualified voluntary employee contributions that were allowable as a deduction under Code Section 219(a). The amount of a Participant's Account shall be increased by the aggregate distributions made to such Participant under the Plan during the one-year period ending on the Determination Date including those distributions made from a terminated plan if such plan would have been required to be included in an Aggregation Group. For purposes of determining if the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan or is included in a Top-Heavy Group, the following amounts shall not be taken into consideration:

              (1)   related rollover contributions (i.e., rollover and plan-to-plan transfers which are either not initiated by the Participant or made to a plan maintained by the Employer) made as a distribution from the Plan; and

              (2)   unrelated rollover contributions (i.e., rollovers and plan-to-plan transfers which are both initiated by the Participant and made from a plan

51


      maintained by one employer to a plan maintained by another employer); and

              (3)   the Account of a Participant if such Participant has not received any Compensation from an Affiliated Company and has not performed an Hour of Service with an Affiliated Company for a one-year period ending on the Determination Date (however, if such Participant returns to the employ of an Affiliated Company and completes an Hour of Service, such Participant's total Account will be included for purposes of this Section); and

              (4)   the Account of a Participant if such Participant is not a Key Employee with respect to any plan for any plan year but such Participant was a Key Employee with respect to such plan for any prior plan year.

            (f)    "Top Heavy Group" means, for a given Plan Year, a group of plans of the Affiliated Companies which, in the aggregate, meet the requirements of the definition contained in Section 416(g)(2)(B) of the Code.

        14.02    Special Rules.    Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the following provisions of this Section shall automatically become operative and shall supersede any conflicting provisions of the Plan, if, in any Plan Year, the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan.

            (a)   The minimum employer contribution (excluding Before-Tax Contributions) allocable to the Accounts of a Participant who is not a Key Employee and has not incurred a Termination of Employment by the end of such Plan Year shall be an amount equal to 3 percent of such Participant's Taxable Wages or, if lower, the percentage of Taxable Wages at which an employer contribution (including Before-Tax contributions) is made for such Plan Year for the Key Employee for whom such percentage is the highest for such Plan Year. Matching contributions shall be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the minimum contribution requirements of this Section and Section 416(c)(2) of the Code. Matching contributions that are used to satisfy the minimum contribution requirements shall be treated as matching contributions for purposes of the ACP test and other requirements of Section 401(m) of the Code.

            (b)   A Participant who has completed at least three Years of Service shall become 100% vested in his Accounts.

            (c)   If the Plan becomes a Top Heavy Plan and subsequently ceases to be such, the vesting schedule in Subsection (b) above shall continue to apply in determining the rights to benefits of any Participant who had at least three Years of Service as of the last day of the last Plan Year in which the Plan was a Top Heavy Plan. For other Participants, such schedule shall apply only to their accrued benefits as of such last day of such Plan Year.

52


            (d)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted under Section 416 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, no minimum contribution shall be required under this Section with respect to a Participant who is not a Key Employee if the required minimum benefit under Section 416(c)(1) of the Code or the required minimum contribution under Section 416(c)(2) of the Code is provided to him by another qualified plan of his Employer. Should Congress provide by statute, or the Treasury Department provide by regulation or ruling, that the limitations provided in this Article XIV are no longer necessary for the Plan to meet the requirements of Section 401(a) or other applicable provisions of the Code in effect, such limitations shall become void and shall no longer apply, without the necessity of further amendment to the Plan.

53



ARTICLE XV

            (a)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if a Participant elects, the distribution from such Participant's Accounts shall commence no later than one year after the close of the Plan Year

              (1)   in which such Participant incurs a Termination of Employment by reason of attainment of Normal Retirement Age, disability or death; or

              (2)   which is the 5th Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Participant otherwise incurs a Termination of Employment.

            (b)   Unless a Participant elects otherwise, the distribution from such Participant's Accounts shall be in substantially equal periodic payments, not less frequently than annually, over a period not longer than the greater of 5 years or, in the case of a Participant with a total Account balance in excess of $500,000, 5 years plus one additional year (but not more than 5 additional years) for each $100,000 or fraction thereof by which such balance exceeds $500,000. The dollar amounts in this Subsection shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 409(o)(2) of the Code.

        15.05    Voting Rights.    Each Participant (or if applicable, such Participant's Beneficiary) shall be entitled to direct the manner in which any shares of Travelers Class A Common Stock and Travelers Class B Common Stock allocated to such Participant's Accounts are to be voted, as provided in Article XI.

Any such election shall be in accordance with the rules and procedures adopted by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan shall not distribute any dividend amount under this Section in the event it is determined that an Employer would not be allowed a deduction under Section 404(k) of the Code for the full amount of the cash dividend available for distribution at the election of a Participant or his Beneficiary.

60


        B-3.2    Allocation Formula.    

            (a)   Under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan, each Aetna Participant was assigned a number of points based on his annual base compensation and bonus received as of April 2, 1996 (up to a maximum of $150,000), age and service recognized under the Aetna Pension Plan as of April 2, 1996. Points were calculated by multiplying the Aetna Participant's annual base compensation and bonus received as of April 2, 1996 (up to a maximum of $150,000), by his point assignment factor determined according to the following table:

POINT ASSIGNMENT FACTOR

 
  SERVICE
AGE

  0-5 Years
  6-14 Years
  15 or more years
Less than 35   0.75   1.25   1.25
35-44   1.80   2.00   2.50
45-54   2.90   3.50   4.50
55 or older   4.00   5.00   7.00

            (b)   The aggregate number of points for all Aetna Participants was divided into $4,000,000 to value each point. Once valued, the points that were assigned each Aetna Participant were multiplied by such value to determine the amount of the contribution for each Aetna Participant. Each Aetna Participant's assigned points, and the calculated value of such points, determined the contribution to be made to his Account. This amount was fixed for the duration of his employment with an Affiliated Company.

            (c)   The point assignment and contribution amount determined under Subsections (a) and (b) for each Aetna participant were determined and fixed as of April 2, 1996 under the Citigroup 401(k) Plan.

            (d)   As the total number of points assigned to all Aetna Participants declines as a result of Terminations of Employment by Aetna Participants, the total amount to be allocated in each Plan Year shall be reduced by the value of the terminated Aetna Participant's point values.

        B-3.3    Allocation to Aetna Participants' Accounts.    For each Plan Year in which an Aetna Participant is employed on December 31, such Aetna Participant shall be entitled to receive an allocation equal to the amount set forth in Section B-3.2. For any Aetna Participant who terminates service with an Employer during a Plan Year, he shall be entitled to receive an allocation equal to the amount set forth in Section B-3.2, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar months worked in the year of his termination and the denominator of which is twelve (12).

61


        B-3.4    Deceased Aetna Participants.    

            (a)   Notwithstanding anything in this Section B-3 to the contrary, in the event of an Aetna Participant's death while still employed by an Employer, the allocation under this Appendix B for such Aetna Participant shall be pro-rated for the year of death according to the formula set forth in subparagraph (b) below.

            (b)   The allocation in the year of death of an active Aetna Participant shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of elapsed calendar months in the Plan Year, determined through the end of the month which includes the Aetna Participant's death, and the denominator of which is twelve (12).

        B-3.5    Rehired Aetna Participants.    

            (a)   An Aetna Participant who incurs a Termination of Employment and is subsequently rehired shall not be eligible to receive a Supplemental Company Contribution.

            (b)   Notwithstanding Subsection (a) above, an Aetna Participant whose employment is terminated involuntarily but not due to such Participant's gross or willful misconduct or a substantial failure to perform his assigned duties with his Employer, shall be eligible to receive Supplemental Company Contributions if he is rehired prior to incurring five (5) consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service. For the Plan Year in which his reemployment date occurs, such Aetna Participant's Supplemental Company Contribution shall be equal to the amount set forth in Section B-3.2, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar months worked in the year of his reemployment and the denominator of which is twelve (12).

Article B-4
Vesting

        B-4.1    An Aetna Participant shall be fully vested in his Aetna Account.
