(d)       Effective April 1, 2012, the Excess Postponed Retirement Income payable to a Participant eligible for a Grandfathered Transition Benefit shall be equal to the greatest of (A), (B), or (C), subject to Section 4.4(f), where:

(A)       equals the Excess Account reduced by the AG Offset, and

(B)       equals the sum of the Excess Account, disregarding the Excess Opening Balance, and the Frozen Accrued Benefit, and

(C)       equals the Grandfathered Accrued Benefit.

(e)        For clarity, if the late retirement factors set forth in the Qualified Plan apply in determining the monthly amount of the Qualified Plan Retirement Income payable upon a Participant’s Postponed Retirement referred to in Sections 4.4(a)(i) and (ii), 4.4(c)(B), and 4.4(d)(B) and (C), such late retirement factors shall apply in determining the amount of the Excess Postponed Retirement Income payable hereunder for a Participant listed on Schedule A whose benefit is determined under Section 4.6(a) or 4.6(b).

(f)        The Excess Accounts for purposes of determining the amounts in Sections 4.4(b), 4.4(c), and 4.4(d) shall be increased by the excess (if any) of (i) the Excess Account at Normal Retirement Date increased by the late retirement factors set forth in the Qualified Plan in Section 2.14(b)(iii) over (ii) the Excess Account at the Postponed Retirement Date. The Grandfathered Accrued Benefit and the Frozen Accrued Benefit shall be increased after Normal

Retirement Date by applying the late retirement factors set forth in Appendix C of the Qualified Plan.

4.5       A Participant who is eligible for Disability Retirement under Section 3.1 shall be entitled to the benefit determined in this Section 4.5.  Effective December 31, 2015, the Retirement Income for a Participant who is eligible for Disability Retirement shall not increase after December 31, 2015, nor shall there be any increase in the offset amounts that are applied in determining the amount of the Disability Retirement benefit, except for amounts related to Interest Credits (as defined in the Qualified Plan).  For clarity, a Participant who incurs a Disability, regardless of the date of Disability, shall cease receiving further accruals as of December 31, 2015, and any Participant who incurs a Disability after that date shall be entitled only to his frozen accrued benefit as of December 31, 2015 (increased, if applicable, by any amount attributable to Interest Credits, as defined in the Qualified Plan).

(a)        For a Participant who is determined to have incurred a Disability prior to April 1, 2012 and prior to his Normal Retirement Date (including a Participant who is determined to have incurred a Disability prior to his Early Retirement Date), subject to Section 6.3, an amount shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Plan on such Participant’s Normal Retirement Date (the “Excess Disability Retirement Income”). The Excess Disability Retirement Income payable in the Normal Form shall be equal to the difference between (i) and (ii) as stated below:

(i)         the monthly amount of the Qualified Plan Retirement Income payable by reason of disability to which the Participant would have been entitled under the Qualified Plan, if such benefit were calculated under the Qualified Plan without giving effect to the limitations imposed by the application of Code Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 and if such Qualified Plan Retirement Income were calculated using Average Final Compensation as defined herein;

(ii)        the sum of (X) the monthly amount of Qualified Plan Retirement Income payable by reason of disability to the Participant under the Qualified Plan and any predecessor thereof as of such Participant’s Normal Retirement Date after the limitations imposed by the application of Code Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 (whether or not such benefits are actually paid at such date) and (Y) the AG Offset. 

(b)        The Excess Disability Retirement Income payable to an eligible Participant incurring a Disability on or after April 1, 2012 (other than a Participant Eligible for a Non-Grandfathered Transition Benefit or a Grandfathered Transition Benefit) shall be equal to the Excess Account.

(c)        The Excess Disability Retirement Income payable to a Participant incurring a Disability on or after April 1, 2012 eligible for a Non-Grandfathered Transition Benefit shall be equal to the greater of (A) or (B), where:

(A)       equals the Excess Account reduced by the AG Offset, and

(B)       equals the sum of the Excess Account, disregarding the Excess Opening Balance and the Frozen Accrued Benefit.

(d)       The Excess Disability Retirement Income payable to a Participant incurring a Disability on or after April 1, 2012 eligible for a Grandfathered Transition Benefit shall be equal to the greatest of (A), (B), or (C), where:

(A)       equals the Excess Account reduced by the AG Offset, and

(B)       equals the sum of the Excess Account, disregarding the Excess Opening Balance, and the Frozen Accrued Benefit, and

(C)       equals the Grandfathered Accrued Benefit.

4.6       Restriction on Benefit Accruals for Certain Participants.

(a)        Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, pursuant to rules established by the U.S. Treasury Department’s special pay master (“Special Pay Master”), the benefit accruals of Participants listed in Schedule A shall freeze effective as of the date provided therein, and no benefit shall accrue under the Plan with respect to such Participants during the period set forth in Schedule A (“Freeze Period”) as may be amended from time to time pursuant to rules established by the Special Pay Master. For purposes of determining the amounts described under Sections 4.1(a), 4.3(a), 4.4(a), and 4.5(a) for a Participant listed in Schedule A, the Freeze Period shall be disregarded in determining Credited Service as defined in the Qualified Plan and Average Final Compensation as defined herein. For purposes of determining the amounts described under Sections 4.1(b), 4.3(b), 4.4(b), and 4.5(b) for a Participant listed in Schedule A, the Freeze Period shall be disregarded in determining Credited Service and Average Final Compensation, each as defined in the Qualified Plan.

(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, the benefit payable to a Participant listed on Schedule A shall be the lesser of the amount determined under Section 4.6(a) or the amount determined without regard to Section 4.6(a).

4.7       Actuarial equivalence. For purposes of determining the benefit payable under Sections 4.2(b) and (c), 4.3(c) and (d), 4.4(c) and (d), and 4.5(c) and (d), amounts payable as an annuity shall be converted to a lump-sum applying the factors that apply under the Qualified Plan for such purpose with respect to the Qualified Plan benefit.

Article 5

5.                                             

            A Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to Excess Retirement Income under this Plan at such time that he attains his Normal Retirement Date. In addition, a Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to Excess Retirement Income if he is eligible for Early Retirement pursuant to Section 3.2. Credited Service (as defined in the Qualified Plan), Years of Service or Fraction Thereof, and participation occurring during the Freeze Period as defined in Section 4.6 for a Participant listed on Schedule A shall be included in determining whether a Participant is vested, pursuant to this Article 5. Years of Service or Fraction Thereof occurring after December 31, 2015 shall also be included for determining whether a Participant is vested pursuant to this Article 5.  Years of Service or Fraction Thereof with respect to the period of time, if any,  during which a Participant who is not covered by the ESP is to receive severance in the form of salary continuation or during which the ESP specifies a Participant who is covered by the ESP must receive credit under this Article 5 shall be included in determining whether a Participant is vested pursuant to this Article 5.

            A Participant who terminates employment prior to attaining his Early or Normal Retirement Date, other than by reason of Disability (as provided for in Section 4.5), shall have no rights or claims to Retirement Income under this Plan as of his date of termination. In the case of death, a Participant’s Designated Beneficiary may have a claim for benefits in accordance with Article 3 and Article 7.

Article 6
Modes of Benefit Payment

6.                                             

6.1       Except as provided in Section 6.2, any Excess Retirement Income payable under this Plan accrued prior to April 1, 2012 shall be paid in the Normal Form, and any Excess Retirement Income payable under the Plan accrued on and after April 1, 2012 shall be paid in a lump sum. If a Participant dies prior to the commencement of benefits under the Plan, no benefits will be payable under the Plan except as specified in Article 7.

6.2       Only with respect to amounts accrued prior to April 1, 2012, in lieu of the Normal Form, a Participant may elect payment in an optional form of payment to the extent provided herein. The optional forms of benefits under the Plan shall include any of the annuity optional forms of benefits available under the Qualified Plan except for the Social Security Adjustment Option. Optional forms of benefit shall be actuarially equivalent to the Normal Form of benefit determined in accordance with the actuarial equivalent factors in effect under the Qualified Plan as of the date payment is to be made.

            A Participant may elect an optional form of payment on a form provided by the Committee for such purpose. A Participant who has elected an annuity form of payment (or for whom the Normal Form of payment is in effect) may, at any time prior to Separation from Service or, in the case of Disability, prior to Normal Retirement Date, elect another form of annuity payment available under the Qualified Plan provided that such other form of payment is actuarially equivalent based on the actuarial equivalent factors in effect under the Qualified Plan as of the date payment is to be made. In the absence of any such an election, payment shall be made in the Normal Form.

6.3       Except as hereinafter provided or as provided in Section 6.4, payment of Excess Retirement Income under this Plan shall commence (or, for amounts accrued on and after April 1, 2012, shall be paid) within 90 days after the Participant incurs a Separation from Service with the Employer and each Affiliated Employer by reason of Normal, Early or Postponed Retirement. If the Participant terminates employment by reason of Disability Retirement, payment of Excess Retirement Income shall commence at the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date. Provided further that if the Participant is a Specified Employee when such Participant incurs a Separation from Service, such Participant’s Excess Retirement Income (except in the case of Disability Retirement) shall commence to be paid six months after the Participant separates from service. To the extent that monthly payments are delayed by reason of the foregoing six-month delay, such delayed monthly payments shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum amount when his Excess Retirement Income commences adjusted with interest at an annual rate of 5%. To the extent that a lump sum payment is delayed by reason of the foregoing six month delay, such delayed payment shall be adjusted with interest at an annual rate of 5%.

6.4       Special Commencement Date Rules for Certain Participants. This Section 6.4 provides special rules for determining the commencement date of Excess Retirement Income benefits for certain participants, as follows:

(a)        Except as described in (b), (c) or (d) below, in the case of a Participant who terminated employment with a vested right to Excess Retirement Income prior to January 1, 2008 (other than by reason of Disability Retirement) and who has not commenced receiving such Excess Retirement Income benefit by January 1, 2009, such Participant shall commence his or her Excess Retirement Income as of March 1, 2009.

(b)        In the case of an individual who (i) is a Participant in the Plan by reason of the merger of the HSB Excess Plan into this Plan; (ii) has a vested interest in his or her accrued benefit under the HSB Excess Plan and (iii) terminates employment prior to eligibility for Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement under this Plan, such Participant shall commence payment of such HSB Excess Retirement Plan benefit within 90 days after the attainment of age 60 if such Participant terminated employment prior to age 55 or within 90 days after Separation from Service (but not earlier than six months after Separation from Service if the Participant is a Specified Employee) if such Participant terminates employment at or after age 55. To the extent that monthly payments are delayed by reason of the foregoing six-month delay, such delayed monthly payments shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum amount when his Excess Retirement Income commences adjusted with interest at an annual rate of 5%.

                        If a Participant is described in (i) or (ii) above, but has, however, terminated employment after qualifying for Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement, such Participant’s Excess Retirement Income shall be paid as specified in Section 6.3, subject to Section 6.4(e).

(c)        In the case of an individual who (i) is a Participant in the Plan by reason of the merger of the AG Restoration Plan into this Plan; (ii) has a vested interest in his or her accrued benefit under the AG Restoration Plan and (iii) terminates employment prior to eligibility for Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement under this Plan, such Participant shall commence payment of such AG Restoration Plan benefit within 90 days after the attainment of age 55 if such Participant had earned 10 or more Years of Credited Service or within 90 days after the attainment of age 60 if such Participant had earned less than 10 Years of Credited Service (but not earlier than six months after Separation from Service if the Participant is a Specified Employee). To the extent that monthly payments are delayed by reason of the foregoing six-month delay, such delayed monthly payments shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum amount when his Excess Retirement Income commences adjusted with interest at an annual rate of 5%.

                        If a Participant is described in (i) or (ii) above, but has, however, terminated employment after qualifying for Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement, such Participant’s Excess Retirement Income shall be paid as specified in Section 6.3, subject to Section 6.4(e).

(d)       In the case of an individual who (i) is a Participant in the Plan by reason of the merger of the 20th Century Supplemental Plan into this Plan; (ii) has a vested interest in his or her accrued benefit under the 20th Century Supplemental Plan and (iii) terminates employment prior to eligibility for Early, Normal, Postponed or Disability Retirement under this Plan, such Participant shall commence payment of such 20th Century Supplemental Plan benefit within 90 days of the attainment of age 55 if such Participant had earned 10 or more Years of

Credited Service or within 90 days of the attainment of age 60 if such Participant had earned less than 10 Years of Credited Service (but not earlier than six months after Separation from Service if the Participant is a Specified Employee). To the extent that monthly payments are delayed by reason of the foregoing six-month delay, such delayed monthly payments shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum amount when his Excess Retirement Income commences adjusted with interest at an annual rate of 5%.

(e)        Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, this Amendment shall not have the effect of accelerating payment of a benefit into the 2008 calendar year which, in the absence of this Amendment, would be paid after December 31, 2008. Any benefit which would be paid in 2008 (or earlier) as the result of this Amendment shall be paid instead as of March 1, 2009. This Amendment shall not have the effect of deferring payment of a benefit beyond 2008 if, in the absence of this Amendment, such benefit would be paid in 2008.

Article 7
Death Benefits

7.                                             

7.1       Effective December 31, 2015, the Plan is frozen; subsequently, the death benefits described in this Article 7 shall not increase after December 31, 2015, nor shall there be any increase in the offset amounts that are applied in determining the amount of the death benefits, other than any increase related to Interest Credits (as defined in the Qualified Plan).  Upon the death of (i) a Participant who has not terminated from employment prior to his Normal, Early, or Postponed Retirement Date, or (ii) a Participant who terminates employment on a Normal, Early, or Postponed Retirement Date and dies prior to the date benefits commence under the Plan, if a Qualified Plan Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity is payable under the Qualified Plan to the Surviving Spouse or, for deaths occurring on or after April 1, 2012, to the Participant’s beneficiary under the Qualified Plan, an amount (the “Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity”) shall be payable to the Surviving Spouse or, for deaths occurring on or after April 1, 2012, the Designated Beneficiary under this Plan.

(a)        For deaths occurring prior to April 1, 2012, the monthly amount of the Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity payable to a Surviving Spouse shall be equal to (i) less (ii) less (iii) as stated below:

(i)         the monthly amount of the Qualified Plan Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity to which the Surviving Spouse would have been entitled under the Qualified Plan and any predecessor thereof as of the date of death or, if later, as of the first day of the calendar month coincident with or next following the date the Participant would have attained age 55, if such benefit were calculated under the Qualified Plan without giving effect to the limitations imposed by the application of Code Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 and if such Qualified Plan Pre‑Retirement Survivor Annuity were calculated using Average Final Compensation as defined herein; less

(ii)        the monthly amount of the Qualified Plan Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity payable to the Surviving Spouse under the Qualified Plan and any predecessor thereof as of the date of death, or, if later, as of the first day of the calendar month coincident with or next following the date the Participant would have attained age 55 after the limitations imposed by the application of Code Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 (whether or not such benefits are actually paid as of such date); less

(iii)       the AG Offset, if any.

                        For purposes of (ii) and (iii) above, if the Participant is not eligible for Early Retirement under the Qualified Plan, the amounts computed under (ii) and (iii) shall be the amounts that would be payable at Normal Retirement Date under those sections, but reduced by 6‑2/3% for each of the first 5 years (and a fraction thereof for each full month) that payment precedes age 65 and 3‑1/3% for each year (and a fraction thereof for each full month) that payment precedes age 60.

            For a Participant listed on Schedule A whose benefit is determined under Section 7.4(a), for purposes of determining what reduction factors apply for purposes of this Section 7.1, the

number of years of Credited Service (as defined in the Qualified Plan) occurring during the Freeze Period shall be disregarded.

(b)        For a death occurring on or after April 1, 2012, an Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be payable to an eligible Participant’s Designated Beneficiary.

(i)         For the Designated Beneficiary of an eligible Participant (other than a Participant eligible for a Non-Grandfathered Transition Benefit or a Grandfathered Transition Benefit), the amount of the Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be equal to the Excess Account.

(ii)        For the Designated Beneficiary of an eligible Participant who is eligible for a Non-Grandfathered Transition Benefit, the amount of the Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be equal to the Excess Account, reduced by the AG Offset.

(iii)       For the Designated Beneficiary of an eligible Participant who is eligible for a Grandfathered Transition Benefit, the amount of the Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be equal to the greater of (X) the Excess Account, reduced by the AG Offset, or (Y) the Grandfathered Accrued Benefit reduced to reflect early commencement, if applicable, by applying the early retirement factors set forth in the Qualified Plan, reduced by the AG Offset.  If the participant is not eligible for Early Retirement under the Qualified Plan, the Grandfathered Accrued Benefit shall be the amounts that would be payable at Normal Retirement Date, but reduced by 6‑2/3% for each of the first 5 years (and a fraction thereof for each full month) that payment preceded age 65 and 3‑1/3% for each year (and a fraction thereof for each full month) that payment preceded age 60. For a Participant listed on Schedule A whose benefit is determined under Section 7.4(a), for purposes of determining what reduction factors apply for purposes of this Section 7.1, the number of years of Credited Service (as defined in the Qualified Plan) occurring during the Freeze Period shall be disregarded.

(c)        Actuarial equivalence. For purposes of determining the benefit payable under Section 7.1(b)(iii), amounts payable as an annuity shall be converted to a lump-sum applying the factors that apply under the Qualified Plan for such purpose with respect to the Qualified Plan benefit at the time such benefit commences.

7.2       For a death occurring prior to April 1, 2012, any Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be payable over the lifetime of the Surviving Spouse in monthly installments commencing after the Participant’s date of death or, if later, within 90 days after the date the Participant would have attained age 55 and ceasing with the last monthly payment made prior to the Surviving Spouse’s death. For a Participant other than a Participant eligible for a Non-Grandfathered Transition Benefit or a Grandfathered Transition Benefit, for a death occurring on and after April 1, 2012, any Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be payable in a single lump sum to the Designated Beneficiary within 90 days after the death of the Participant. For a Participant eligible for a Non-Grandfathered Transition Benefit, for a death occurring on or after April 1, 2012, (i) the Excess Opening Account Balance shall be payable over the lifetime of the Designated Beneficiary in monthly installments commencing after the Participant’s date of death

or, if later, within 90 days after the date the Participant would have attained age 55 and ceasing with the last monthly payment made prior to the Designated Beneficiary’s death, and (ii) benefits accrued on or after April 1, 2012 shall be payable in a single lump sum to the Designated Beneficiary within 90 days after the death of the Participant. For a Participant eligible for a Grandfathered Transition Benefit, for a death occurring on or after April 1, 2012, (i) the Frozen Accrued Benefit shall be payable over the lifetime of the Designated Beneficiary in monthly installments commencing after the Participant’s date of death or, if later, within 90 days after the date the Participant would have attained age 55 and ceasing with the last monthly payment made prior to the Designated Beneficiary’s death, and (ii) benefits accrued on or after April 1, 2012 shall be payable in a single lump sum to the Designated Beneficiary within 90 days after the death of the Participant.

7.3       Except as provided in Section 3.3, upon the death of a Participant who terminated from employment prior to his Normal, Early, Postponed or Disability Retirement Date, no Excess Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity shall be payable to such Participant’s Surviving Spouse or Designated Beneficiary under this Plan. Except as provided in Article 6, with respect to a Participant who has retired and commenced receiving a benefit in a form that provides for continuation after the Participant’s death, no other death benefits shall be payable from the Plan.

7.4       Restriction for Certain Participants.

(a)        Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, for purposes of determining the amount payable under Section 7.1 with respect to a Participant listed on Schedule A, the Freeze Period as defined in Section 4.6 shall be disregarded in determining (i) Credited Service as defined in the Qualified Plan and Average Final Compensation as defined herein, for purposes of determining the amount under Section 7.1(a), and (ii) Credited Service and Average Final Compensation, each as defined in the Qualified Plan, for purposes of determining the amount under Section 7.1(b).

(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, the benefit payable to the Surviving Spouse or Designated Beneficiary of a Participant listed on Schedule A shall be the lesser of the amount determined under Section 7.4(a) or the amount determined under the Plan without regard to Section 7.4(a).

Article 8
Liability of the Company

8.                                             

8.1       The benefits of this Plan shall be paid by the Employer and shall not be funded prior to the time paid to the Participant, Designated Beneficiary, Surviving Spouse or joint or contingent annuitant designated by the Participant, unless and except as expressly provided otherwise by the Company.

8.2       A Participant who is vested in a benefit under this Plan shall be an unsecured creditor of the Employer as to the payment of any benefit under this Plan.

The claimant or his duly authorized representative will have, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of all, documents,

records, and other information relevant to the claimant's claim for benefits. If the claimant files a request for review, his request must include a description of the issues and evidence he deems relevant. Failure to raise issues or present evidence on review will preclude those issues or evidence from being presented in any subsequent proceeding or judicial review of the claim. The review will take into account all available information, regardless of whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

                                    The Retirement Board must render its decision on the review of the claim no more than 60 days after the Retirement Board's receipt of the request for review, except that this period may be extended for an additional 60 days if the Retirement Board determines that special circumstances (including, but not limited to, a hearing) require such extension. If an extension of time is required, written notice of the expected decision date and the reasons for the extension will be furnished to the claimant before the end of the initial 60-day period. If a review of a claim is denied, in whole or in part, the claim must receive a written notice containing:

(A)       the specific reason(s) for the adverse determination;

(B)       a reference to specific Plan provision(s) on which the adverse determination is based;

(C)       a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant's claim for benefits; and

(D)       a statement of the claimant's right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of the Act.

(c)        Disability Claims.

(i)         Initial Claims. The Employee Benefits Department will decide a claim within 45 days of the date on which the claim is received by the Employee Benefits Department. If the Employee Benefits Department determines that an extension is necessary for reasons beyond its control, the Employee Benefits Department may extend this period for an additional 30 days by notifying the claimant of the reasons for the extension and the date when the claimant can expect to receive a decision The Employee Benefits Department may also extend this period for a second 30 day period by again complying with the requirements applicable to the initial 30-day extension. If an extension is provided in order to allow the claimant time to provide additional information necessary to review the claim, the response deadlines applicable to the Employee Benefits Department will be tolled until the earlier of the date 45 days after the date of the request for additional information or the date the Employee Benefits Department receives the additional information. If the Employee Benefits Department fails to notify the claimant of its decision to grant or deny such claim within the time specified by this paragraph, the claimant may request the review of his or her claim

pursuant to the claims review procedures set forth in Section 9.5(c)(ii) of the Plan. If a claim is denied, in whole or in part, the claimant must receive a written notice containing:

(A)       the specific reason(s) for the adverse determination;

(D)       an explanation of the procedure for review of the denied or partially denied claim set forth below, including the claimant's right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of the Act following an adverse benefit determination on review;

(E)       if applicable, any internal rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion relied on in making the adverse benefit determination (or a statement that such information is available free of charge upon request); and

(ii)        Review of Denied Claims. The claimant will have 180 days to request in writing a review of the denial of his or her claim by the Retirement Board. The claimant or his duly authorized representative will have, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of all, documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant's claim for benefits. If the claimant files a request for review, his request must include a description of the issues and evidence he deems relevant. Failure to raise issues or present evidence on review will preclude those issues or evidence from being presented in any subsequent proceeding or judicial review of the claim. The review will take into account all available information, regardless of whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination and will not afford deference to the initial disability determination.

                                    In no event will the review be conducted by the person who made the initial determination or by a subordinate of such person. If the initial adverse benefit determination was based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, including determinations with regard to whether a particular treatment, drug, or other item is experimental, investigational, or not medically necessary or appropriate, the Retirement Board shall consult with a health care professional who has appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment and who neither was consulted nor is the subordinate of an individual who was consulted in connection with the adverse benefit determination that is the subject of the claimant's request for

review. In addition, the reviewer shall provide for the identification of medical or vocational experts whose advice was obtained on behalf of the plan in connection with a claimant's adverse benefit determination, without regard to whether the advice was relied upon in making the benefit determination.

                                    The Retirement Board must render its decision on the review of the claim no more than 45 days after the Retirement Board's receipt of the request for review, except that this period may be extended for an additional 45 days if the Retirement Board determines that special circumstances (including, but not limited to, a hearing) require such extension. If an extension of time is required, written notice of the expected decision date and the reasons for the extension will be furnished to the claimant before the end of the initial 45-day period. If an extension is provided in order to allow the claimant time to provide additional information necessary to review the claim, the response deadlines applicable to the Retirement Board will be tolled until the earlier of the date 45 days after the date of the request for additional information or the date the Retirement Board receives the additional information. If a review of a claim is denied, in whole or in part, the claim must receive a written notice containing:

(A)       the specific reason(s) for the adverse determination;

(B)       a reference to specific Plan provision(s) on which the adverse determination is based;

(C)       a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant's claim for benefits; and

(D)       a statement describing any voluntary appeal procedures offered by the Plan and the claimant's right to obtain the information about such procedures and a statement of the claimant's right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of the Act.

(E)       if applicable, any internal rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion relied upon in making the adverse benefit determination (or a statement that such information will be provided free of charge upon request); and

(F)       if the adverse benefit determination is based on medical necessity or an experimental care exclusion or similar exclusion or limit, an explanation of the scientific or clinical judgment for the determination, applying the terms of the Plan to the claimant's medical circumstances (or a statement that such explanation is available free of charge upon request).

Article 11
General Provisions

11.                                            

11.1     This Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Employer and any Employee or other person whether or not in the employ of the Employer, nor shall anything herein contained be deemed to give any Employee or other person whether or not in the employ of the Employer any right to be retained in the employ of the Employer, or to interfere with the right of the Employer to discharge any Employee at any time and to treat him without any regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him as a Participant of the Plan.

11.2     Except as may otherwise be required by law, no distribution or payment under the Plan to any Participant, beneficiary, or joint or contingent annuitant, shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, whether voluntary or involuntary, and any attempt to so anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be void; nor shall any such distribution or payment be in any way liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person entitled to such distribution or payment.

For Certain Employees Participating

in the

Restated American General Retirement Plan

December 31, 1998 Restatement

(Incorporation November, 1991 Plan and Amendments thereof)

RESTORATION OF RETIREMENT INCOME PLAN
FOR CERTAIN EMPLOYEES PARTICIPATING IN THE
RESTATED AMERICAN GENERAL RETIREMENT PLAN

The RESTORATION OF RETIREMENT INCOME PLAN FOR CERTAIN EMPLOYEES PARTICIPATING IN THE RESTATED AMERICAN GENERAL RETIREMENT PLAN (hereinafter referred to as the “Restoration Plan”) is hereby restated effective as of December 31, 1998 by AMERICAN GENERAL CORPORATION and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the “Employer,” jointly and severally). The Restoration Plan has been established to provide for the payment of certain pension and pension-related benefits to certain employees who are participants in the AMERICAN GENERAL RETIREMENT PLAN (hereinafter referred to as the “Basic Plan”). The Employer intends and desires to recognize the value to the Employer of the past and present services of employees covered by the Restoration Plan and to encourage and assure their continued service to the Employer by making more adequate provision for their future retirement security. All terms used in this Restoration Plan shall have the meanings assigned to them under the provisions of the Basic Plan unless otherwise qualified by the context.

1.         Incorporation of the Basic Plan

The Basic Plan, with any amendments thereto, shall be attached hereto as Exhibit I and is hereby incorporated by reference into and shall form a part of this Restoration Plan as fully as if set forth herein verbatim. Any amendment made to the Basic Plan by the Employer shall also be incorporated by reference into and form a part of this Restoration Plan, effective as of the effective date of such amendment. The Basic Plan, whenever referred to in this Restoration Plan, shall mean the Basic Plan, as amended, as it exists as of the date any determination is made of benefits payable under this Restoration Plan.

2.         Administration 

This Restoration Plan shall be administered by the administrative committee (hereinafter referred to as the “Committee”) under the Basic Plan which shall administer it in a manner consistent with the administration of the Basic Plan, as from time to time amended and in effect, except that this Restoration Plan shall be administered as an unfunded plan that is not intended to meet the qualification requirements of section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Committee shall have full power and authority to interpret, construe and administer this Restoration Plan. No member of the Committee shall be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration of this Restoration Plan unless attributable to his own willful misconduct or lack of good faith. Members of the Committee shall not participate in any action or determination regarding their own benefits hereunder.

3.         Eligibility 

Employees, excluding Career Agents, who are Highly Compensated Participants who are participating in the Basic Plan, and either (1) whose pension or pension-related benefits under the Basic Plan are limited pursuant to section 401(a)(17) or section 415 of the Code or (2) who are eligible to participate in the American General Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan, shall be eligible for benefits under this Restoration Plan. In no event shall an employee who is not eligible for benefits under the Basic Plan be eligible for a benefit under this Restoration Plan.

4.         Amount of Benefit

The benefit payable to an eligible employee or his beneficiary under this Restoration Plan shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the excess, if any, of (a) over (b):

(a)        the benefit that would have been payable to such employee or on his behalf under the Basic Plan if such benefit were determined without regard to the maximum amount of benefit limitations of section 415 of the Code, without regard to the considered compensation limitations of section 401(a)(17) of the Code, as if the definition of Compensation under the Basic Plan as in effect on March 21, 1985 were applicable for the period January 1, 1985 through March 20, 1985 and as if the definition of Compensation included executive deferred compensation;

(b)        the benefit which is in fact payable to such employee or on his behalf under the Basic Plan, as in effect from time to time.

5.         Payment of Benefits

The benefit payable under this Restoration Plan on account of an eligible employee’s death shall be paid to the same beneficiary or beneficiaries and in the same form and at the same time or times as the limited benefits are payable to the employee’s beneficiary under the Basic Plan. The benefit payable under this Restoration Plan for any reason other than on account of an eligible employee’s death shall be payable in the form of a benefit for the life of the employee, beginning at his age sixty-five or, if later, his termination of employment with the Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, direct that the benefit payable under this Restoration Plan shall be paid in the same form as, and coincident with, the payment of the limited benefit payments made to the eligible employee or on his behalf to his beneficiary or beneficiaries under the Basic Plan. Further, notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, if an eligible employee becomes entitled to a lump sum payment under Section 2.6 (or a successor section) of the American General Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, the employee shall receive the benefit payable under this Restoration Plan in the form of a lump sum amount, in cash, equal to the actuarial equivalent of such benefit. Such lump sum amount shall be paid within the five (5) business days immediately following termination of the employee’s employment.

6.         Employee’s Rights

Except as otherwise specifically provided, an employee’s rights under this Restoration Plan, including his rights to vested benefits, shall be the same as his rights under the Basic Plan.

Benefits payable under this Restoration Plan shall be a general, unsecured obligation of the Employer to be paid by the Employer from its own funds, and such payments shall not (i) impose any obligation upon the Trust Fund under said Basic Plan; (ii) be paid from the Trust Fund under said Basic Plan; or (iii) have any effect whatsoever upon the Basic Plan or the payment of benefits from the Trust Fund under said Basic Plan. No employee or his beneficiary or beneficiaries shall have any title to or beneficial ownership in any assets which the Employer may earmark to pay benefits hereunder.

7.         Amendment and Discontinuance

This Restoration Plan may be amended from time to time, or terminated and discontinued at any time, in each case at the discretion of the Board of Directors of American General Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall be made, nor shall this Restoration Plan be terminated in a manner which would reduce the benefits or rights to benefits of any employee accrued under the Restoration Plan (determined on the basis of each employee’s presumed termination of employment as of the date of such amendment or termination) prior to the later of the adoption or the effective date of such amendment or termination.

8.         Restrictions on Assignment

The interest of an employee or his beneficiary or beneficiaries may not be sold, transferred, assigned, or encumbered in any manner, either voluntarily or involuntarily, and any attempt so to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, or charge the same shall be null and void; neither shall the benefits hereunder be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts of any person to whom such benefits or funds are payable, nor shall they be subject to garnishments, attachment, or other legal or equitable process nor shall they be an asset in bankruptcy.

9.         Nature of Agreement

This Restoration Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded “excess benefit plan” within the meaning of sections 3(36) and 4(b)(5) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, with respect to a part of the Restoration Plan and an unfunded “deferred compensation plan” for a select group of management or highly-compensated employees within the meaning of sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, with respect to the remainder of the Restoration Plan. The adoption of this Restoration Plan and any setting aside of amounts by the Employer with which to discharge its obligations hereunder shall not be deemed to create a trust; legal and equitable title to any funds so set aside shall remain in the Employer, and any recipient of benefits hereunder shall have no security or other interest in such funds. Any and all funds so set aside shall remain subject to the claims of the general creditors of the Employer, present and future. This provision shall not require the Employer to set aside any funds, but the Employer may set aside such funds if it chooses to do so. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6 and 11 hereof and the foregoing provisions of this Section 9, American General Corporation may, in its discretion, establish a trust to pay amounts becoming payable pursuant to this Restoration Plan, which trust shall be subject to the claims of the general creditors of American General

Corporation in the event of its bankruptcy or insolvency. Notwithstanding any establishment of such a trust, the Employer shall remain responsible for the payment of any amounts so payable which are not so paid by such trust.

10.       Continued Employment

Nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon any employee the right to continue in the employ of the Employer in any capacity.

11.       Binding on Employer, Employees and Their Successors

This Restoration Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Employer, its successors and assigns and the employee and his heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. The provisions of this Restoration Plan shall be applicable with respect to each Employer separately, and amounts payable hereunder shall be paid by the Employer of the particular employee.

12.       Employment with More Than One Employer

If any employee shall be entitled to benefits under the Basic Plan on account of service with more than one Employer, the obligations under this Restoration Plan shall be apportioned among such Employers on the basis of time of service with each, except that an Employer from whose employ such employee was transferred prior to his retirement, death or disability shall be obligated with respect to employment prior to such transfer only to the extent of an amount based on assumed pay increases in accordance with the scale used for computing the actuarial cost under the Basic Plan for the year of the transfer. If obligations are so limited, the remaining obligations shall be borne by the last Employer.

13.       Laws Governing

This Restoration Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas.

EXECUTED as of the 31st day of December, 1998.

ARTICLE IV
CALCULATION OF BENEFITS

4.

4.1       Benefits under this Plan

            A Participant's benefits under this Plan shall be calculated as provided in this Article IV, provided, however, that a Participant's eligibility to receive a benefit hereunder shall be subject to succeeding provisions of this Plan.

4.2       Benefit Formula

            A Participant's benefit payable under this Plan, expressed in the form of an annual benefit payable commencing at the Participant's Normal Retirement Age and payable for the lifetime of the Participant, shall be equal to (a) minus (b) below where

            (a)        equals the benefit payable on the Participant's Normal Retirement Date determined in accordance with the terms of the Qualified Pension Plan (except that for purposes of this Subsection 4.2(a), the Participant's Compensation shall be determined under this Plan), and

            (b)        equals the benefit payable on the Participant's Normal Retirement Date determined in accordance with the terms of the Qualified Pension Plan.

4.3       Offset of Benefit under the 20th Century Industries Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

            If a Participant under this Plan is entitled to receive benefits under the 20th Century Industries Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "SERP"), such Participant's benefit under this Plan shall be offset, but not below zero (0) by an amount equal to the actuarial equivalent of the SERP benefit.

4.4       Benefit Commencement at Early Retirement Date

            If a Participant's benefit under this Plan commences to be paid on a Participant's Early Retirement Date, the benefit calculated as provided in Section 4.2 shall be reduced to reflect the longer anticipated period of time that such benefit is to be paid, and such reduction shall be determined in the same manner as a reduction is computed under the Qualified Pension Plan in the case of a Participant who retires under such Qualified Pension Plan at an Early Retirement Date.

ARTICLE V
VESTING OF BENEFITS

5.

A Participant's interest in his benefit under this Plan shall become vested and nonforfeitable in accordance with the provisions of the Qualified Pension Plan (including provisions of the Qualified Pension Plan relating to vesting upon termination, partial termination or other vesting event under such plan). Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Article V, in the event of a Participant's Separation of Service following a “Change in Control” as such term is defined from time to time in the 20th Century Industries Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, a Participant's interest in his or her benefits under the Plan shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable.

ARTICLE VI
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

6.

6.1       Date of Payment

            Except as otherwise provided in Article VII and subject to the provisions of Article V, a Participant's benefit hereunder, payable on account of a Separation from Service shall commence to be paid as soon as practicable following the later of (a) the date of such

Separation from Service or (b) the earlier of (i) the date on which the Participant attains (or would have attained if the Participant then were in active employment) Early Retirement Date, or (ii) the Participant's Normal Retirement Date.

6.2       Form of Payment

            (a)        Single Life Annuity. The normal form of payment under the Plan for a Participant who is not married on the date of commencement of his or her benefits hereunder shall be a single life annuity providing monthly payments for the life of the Participant, and under which all benefit payments cease as of the date of death of the Participant.

            (b)        Joint and Survivor Annuity. The normal form of benefit payable to a Participant who is lawfully married to a spouse on the date of commencement of his or her benefits hereunder shall be an actuarially equivalent fifty percent (50%) joint and survivor annuity, providing reduced monthly payments during such Participant's life, and providing continued monthly payments after the Participant's death to the spouse to whom the participant is married on the date of his or her commencement of benefits hereunder. Each such continued monthly payments payable to the surviving spouse shall be fifty percent (50%) of the monthly payment amount payable during the Participant's lifetime. The reduction in the Participant's monthly benefits shall be determined by application of the same reduction factors as are applied for purposes of determining such reduction under the Qualified Pension Plan. Continuing payments to a surviving spouse shall continue during the life of the surviving spouse and shall cease on the date of death of such surviving spouse.

            (c)        Whenever, under this Plan it becomes necessary to determine the actuarial equivalence of one or more forms of benefits, such determination shall be made by application of such actuarial factors and rates as would then be applied for such purpose under the Qualified Pension Plan.

ARTICLE VII
DEATH AND DISABILITY BENEFITS

7.

7.1       Death Benefit

            In the event of the death of a Participant prior to commencement of benefit payments hereunder, a death benefit shall be payable to the spouse to whom such Participant is lawfully married on the date of the Participant's death. Such benefit shall consist of monthly payments, each of which is equal to the monthly amount that would have been paid to such spouse (a) had the Participant's Separation from Service occurred on the later of (i) the Participant's date of death, or (ii) the earlier of the Participant's Early Retirement Date or Normal Retirement Date, (b) had the Participant's benefit commenced to be paid as the joint and survivor annuity described in Section 6.2, and (c) had the Participant's death occurred immediately after such commencement of benefits. Such death benefit

shall begin to be paid as soon as practicable after the latest of (a) the Participant's date of death, (b) the earlier of the Participant's Early Retirement Date or Normal Retirement Date, and (c) the date on which such benefit applications, releases, and other documents as the Committee may require to be given are received by the Committee in form and manner satisfactory to the Committee. Death benefit payments shall cease as of the date of death of the spouse receiving such payments. No benefit shall be payable to any person other than a spouse described in the first sentence of this Section 7.1. This Plan shall not be required to give effect to disclaimers, whether made under state or federal law. This Section 7.1 shall not apply in the case of the death of a Participant after payments have commenced to be made with respect to such Participant.

7.2       Disability Benefit

            If a Participant incurs a Total and Permanent Disability, as such term is defined from time to time under Qualified Pension Plan, prior to commencement of benefits hereunder and such Participant at the date of the occurrence of such Total and Permanent Disability is an Eligible Employee, such Participant shall continue to accrue benefits under this Plan in the same manner as provided in the Qualified Plan during the continuation of such Total and Permanent Disability, but not beyond the date determined under the Qualified Pension Plan. Such Participant shall be entitled to receive his/her benefit under this Plan upon attaining his/her Normal Retirement Date.

ARTICLE VIII
RIGHT TO TERMINATE OR MODIFY PLAN

8.

By action of its Board of Directors, 20th Century Industries may modify or terminate this Plan without further liability to any Eligible Employee or former employee or any other person. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Article VIII, except as expressly required by law, this Plan may not be modified or terminated as to any Participant in a manner that adversely affects the payment of benefits theretofore accrued by such Participant to the extent such benefits have become vested, except that in the event of the termination of the Plan as to all Participants, this Plan may in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors be modified to accelerate payment of benefits to Participants.

ARTICLE IX
NO ASSIGNMENT, ETC.

9.

Benefits under this Plan may not be assigned or alienated and shall not be subject to the claims of any creditor. A Participant shall not be permitted to borrow under the Plan, nor shall a Participant be permitted to pledge or otherwise use his benefits hereunder as security for any loan or other obligation. No payments shall be made to any person or persons other than expressly provided herein, or on any date or dates other than as expressly provided herein.

It is each Participant's sole responsibility to obtain such consents, and to take such other actions as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with participation in this Plan, including but not limited to obtaining spousal or other consents, as may be necessary or appropriate to reflect marital property, support, or other obligations arising under contract, order or by operation of law.

ARTICLE X
THE COMMITTEE

10.

            (a)        The appointment, removal and resignation of members of the Committee shall be governed by the Board of Directors of 20th Century Industries. Subject to change by the said Board, the membership of the Committee shall be the same as the membership of the Committee of the Qualified Pension Plan.

            (b)        The Committee shall have authority to oversee the management and administration of the Plan, and in connection therewith is authorized in its sole discretion to make, amend and rescind such rules as it deems necessary for the proper administration of the Plan, to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan and to correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the extent that the Committee deems desirable to carry the Plan into effect. The powers and duties of the Committee shall include without limitation, the following:

                        (i)         Resolving all questions relating to the eligibility of select management and highly compensated employees to become Participants; and

                        (ii)        Resolving all questions regarding payment of benefits under the Plan and other questions regarding plan participation.

            Any action taken or determination made by the Committee shall be conclusive on all parties. The exercise of or failure to exercise any discretion reserved to the Committee to grant or deny any benefit to a Participant or other person under the Plan shall in no way require the Committee or any person acting on behalf thereof, to similarly exercise or fail to exercise such discretion with respect to any other Participant.

ARTICLE XI
RELEASE

11.

As a condition to making any payment under the Plan, or to giving effect to any election or other action under the Plan by any Participant or any other person, the Plan Administrator may require such consents or releases as it determines to be appropriate, and further may require any such designation, election or other action to be in writing, in a prescribed form and to be filed with the Committee in a manner prescribed by the Committee. In the event the Committee determines, in

its discretion, that multiple conflicting claims may be made as to all or a part of a benefit accrued hereunder by a Participant, the Committee may delay the making of any payment until such conflict or multiplicity of claims is resolved.

ARTICLE XII
NO CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT

12.

This Plan shall not be deemed to give any employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discharge or retire any employee at any time, nor shall this Plan interfere with the right of the Company to establish the terms and conditions of employment of any employee.

ARTICLE XIII
COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO PAY BENEFITS

13.

Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company, and any Employee, an Employee's spouse or former spouse or any other person. Funds to provide benefits under the provisions of this Plan shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general funds of the Company. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Article XIII, assets may be transferred by the Company to a trust constituting a "rabbi trust," for the purpose of providing benefits described herein.
