EX.10.1.A&R Executive Severance Plan

AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PLAN OF CLARIVATE PLC

AND SUMMARY PLAN DESCRIPTION

Effective March 23, 2026

AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PAY PLAN

1.PURPOSE

Clarivate Plc (the “Company”) has established this Amended and Restated Executive Severance Pay Plan of

Clarivate Plc (the “Plan”) for the benefit of certain key executives of the Company, its Affiliates, and its

Subsidiaries. The purpose of the Plan is to provide severance pay and certain other benefits to the Executives

when their employment terminates under circumstances covered by the Plan. Benefits provided under the Plan

are conditioned on the termination of the Executive’s employment under circumstances covered by the Plan

and the execution of a Severance Agreement, which shall include a general release of all claims against the

Company, its Affiliates, and other specified persons, and may include restrictive covenant agreements and

such other terms and conditions deemed appropriate by the Committee.

With respect to U.S.-based Executives, the Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded welfare plan”

maintained by the Company “for the purpose of providing benefits for a select group of management or

highly compensated employees” such that it will be, among other things, exempt from the reporting and

disclosure requirements of Part 1 of Title I of ERISA. As such, the Plan is a top hat plan within the meaning

of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA.

Nothing in this Plan should be read or interpreted as changing the Company policy that all Executives are

employed at will, and the Company continues to retain the absolute right and power to terminate any

employee, including any Executive, with or without Cause and with or without prior notice. Furthermore,

nothing contained in this Plan confers any right or guarantee of continued employment on any employee,

including any Executive.

The Plan was originally adopted by the Board, effective as of June 30, 2021. The Board approved this

amendment and restatement of the Plan on March 23, 2026, to be effective as of such date.

3.TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT (NO CHANGE IN CONTROL)

If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause at any time other than during the

twelve (12)-month period immediately following a Change in Control and if such termination is not a

Divestiture Termination, the Company shall provide severance benefits to the Executive that shall not be less

than the cumulative severance benefits provided for in any employment or severance agreement otherwise

entered into between the Company and the Executive, or if none exists, in accordance with the following

guidelines as reflected in the Severance Agreement:

a.Severance.

i.A cash amount equal to:

(A)eighteen (18) months of Base Salary; plus

(B)an amount reflecting eighteen (18) months of bonus target under the Annual Incentive

Plan assuming the target bonus had been met at 100% for a full eighteen (18)-month

period, with such amount to be calculated based on the Executive’s target bonus and

Base Salary as of the termination of employment.

ii.This cash severance amount shall be paid in a lump sum within sixty (60) days of the

effectiveness of the Severance Agreement (and in no event later than March 15th of the

calendar year following the date of the Executive’s termination of employment).

b.Equity and Equity-Based Awards.

i.Outstanding and unvested awards of Restricted Stock Units under the Clarivate Plc Amended

and Restated 2019 Incentive Award Plan (as may be amended and restated from time to time)

or any successor plan thereto (each, the “Equity Plan”) that have been or will be granted

prior to April 1, 2027, shall, to the extent such Restricted Stock Units would have otherwise

vested had the Executive’s employment continued over the eighteen (18)-month period

following the Executive’s termination date, become vested and be settled on the fifteenth

(15th) day of the month immediately after the later of the effectiveness of the Severance

Agreement and the date of the Executive’s termination of employment but, in any event, no

later than March 15th of the calendar year following the date of the Executive’s termination of

employment. Except as noted in this Section 3(b), all other terms of any award agreements

governing the terms of the Executive’s outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall otherwise

remain unchanged and in place.

ii.Outstanding and unvested awards of Restricted Stock Units under the Equity Plan that are

granted on or after April 1, 2027, shall become vested and be settled on the fifteenth (15th)

day of the month immediately after the later of the effectiveness of the Severance Agreement

and the date of the Executive’s termination of employment but, in any event, no later than

March 15th of the calendar year following the date of the Executive’s termination of

employment, in a prorated amount, determined by multiplying each unvested tranche of such

Restricted Stock Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months

elapsed since the applicable grant date and the denominator of which is the number of full

months in the vesting period of the applicable tranche. Except as noted in this Section 3(b),

all other terms of any award agreements governing the terms of the Executive’s outstanding

Restricted Stock Units shall otherwise remain unchanged and in place.

iii.No enhanced vesting shall apply to outstanding awards of Performance Share Units under the

Equity Plan, which shall be forfeited and cancelled as provided in such plan and underlying

award agreements.

iv.For purposes of any Option Agreement the Executive may have signed, the timeframe for

exercise of any outstanding option shall be extended to the date that is the two (2)-year

anniversary of December 31st of the year in which the Executive experiences his or her

termination of employment, or, if earlier, the expiration date of such option. Except as noted

in this Section 3(b), all other terms of any Option Agreement shall remain unchanged and in

place.

c.Other Benefits.

i.To the extent the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) applies, the

Executive shall be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to the applicable monthly COBRA

premium payment for the group medical plan in which the Executive was enrolled as of the

termination of employment date, multiplied by eighteen (18). This lump sum amount shall be

paid as soon as administratively feasible following the Executive’s termination from

employment but, in any event, no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the

date of the Executive’s termination of employment.

ii.The Executive shall not be entitled to any benefits other than those expressly provided for in

this Plan.

4.TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL

If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause or the Executive resigns for Good

Reason during the twelve (12)-month period immediately following a Change in Control, the Company shall

provide severance benefits to the Executive that shall not be less than the cumulative severance benefits

provided for in any employment or severance agreement otherwise entered into between the Company and the

Executive, or if none exists, in accordance with the following guidelines as reflected in the Severance

Agreement:

a.Severance.

i.A cash amount equal to:

(A)twenty-four (24) months of Base Salary; plus

(B)an amount reflecting twenty-four (24) months of bonus target under the Annual

Incentive Plan assuming the target bonus had been met at 100% for a full twenty-four

(24)-month period, with such amount to be calculated based on the Executive’s Base

Salary as of the termination of employment.

ii.This cash severance amount shall be paid in a lump sum within sixty (60) days of the

effectiveness of the Severance Agreement (and in no event later than March 15th of the

calendar year following the date of the Executive’s termination of employment).

b.Equity and Equity-Based Awards.

i.Any unvested outstanding awards of Restricted Stock Units or Performance Share Units

under the Equity Plan (or any substitute award thereof) shall become vested in full and be

settled and all restrictions shall lapse on the 15th day of the month immediately after the later

of the effectiveness of the Severance Agreement and the date of the Executive’s termination

of employment but, in any event, no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the

date of the Executive’s termination of employment, with Performance Share Units vesting as

if all performance objectives had been met at a performance level to be determined by the

Committee at the time of the Change in Control.

ii.For purposes of any Option Agreement the Executive may have signed, the timeframe for

exercise of any outstanding option shall be extended to the date that is the two (2)-year

anniversary of December 31st of the year in which the Executive experiences his or her

termination of employment, or, if earlier, the expiration date of such option. Except as noted

in this paragraph, all other terms of any Option Agreement shall remain unchanged and in

place.

c.Other Benefits.

i.To the extent COBRA applies, the Executive shall be entitled to a lump sum payment equal

to the applicable monthly COBRA premium payment for the group medical plan in which the

Executive was enrolled as of the termination of employment date, multiplied by twenty- four

(24). This lump sum amount shall be paid as soon as administratively feasible following the

Executive’s termination from employment but, in any event, no later than March 15th of the

calendar year following the date of the Executive’s termination of employment.

ii.The Executive shall not be entitled to any benefits other than those expressly provided for in

this Plan.

5.GENERALLY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS

a.Administrator Discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrator

reserves the right to provide for benefits under Article 3 or Article 4 that are different in amount or

value than those listed above, and the Administrator need not treat each Executive uniformly under

this Plan. Any exercise of such discretion will be detailed in the applicable Severance Agreement.

b.Death or Disability. If the Executive dies or incurs a Disability while employed by the Company and

prior to any event that would entitle the Executive to any payment or benefits under this Plan, the

Executive will not be entitled to any payment under this Plan.

c.Beneficiary. The Executive shall be entitled to designate a beneficiary in the event he dies while

receiving benefits under this Plan but prior to full payment of such benefits. Such beneficiary

designation shall be in a form and manner as prescribed by the Committee. In the event the Executive

fails to designate a beneficiary, payment shall be made to the Executive’s estate.

d.Impact of Other Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan or any agreement to the

contrary, if the Executive is entitled to any cash severance, notice (or payment in lieu thereof), or

continued health coverage benefits or other termination-related benefits by operation of applicable

law or under a contract or arrangement sponsored by or to which the Company or any of its Affiliates

is a party in connection with the Executive’s cessation of employment (“Other Benefits”), then the

benefits under this Plan will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to the

Executive. Under no circumstances may an Executive receive severance benefits under both this Plan

and as provided for under applicable law or Other Benefits. Unless otherwise expressly provided

hereunder, an Executive who is eligible for benefits under both this Plan and under applicable law or

Other Benefits shall receive benefits under that which provides the highest level of benefits.

e.General Release and Restrictive Covenants. As a condition to receiving any benefits under this

Plan, the Executive must sign and return a Severance Agreement, which shall include a general

release of claims in the form substantially similar to that required of similarly situated employees of

the Company, within forty-five (45) days after the termination of the Executive’s employment and

not revoke such release within the time permitted by law (which consideration period and revocation

period together may not exceed sixty (60) days following termination of the Executive’s

employment). Such Severance Agreement and release may include any restrictive covenants deemed

necessary or advisable by the Committee or may require repayment of any benefits under this Plan if

the Executive is later found to have committed acts that would have justified a termination for Cause.

f.Funding. No Executive shall acquire by reason of the Plan any right in or title to any assets, funds, or

property of the Company. Any amounts payable under the Plan are unfunded obligations of the

Company and shall be paid from the general assets of the Company. No officer, director, or agent of

the Company guarantees in any manner the payment of benefits under the Plan.

g.Non-Assignment. Benefits payable under the Plan shall not be subject to alienation, pledge, sale,

transfer, assignment, attachment, execution, or encumbrance of any kind and any attempt to do so

shall be void, except as required by law.

h.Tax Withholding. Any payments that an Executive receives under this Plan shall be subject to all

required tax withholding. The Executive will bear the cost of any taxes not withheld on benefits

provided under this Plan, regardless of whether withholding is required.

i.Section 409A of the Code.

i.The amounts payable or benefits to be provided pursuant to this Plan generally are intended

to be separate payments that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code by reason of the

“short-term deferral” exception set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), the involuntary

separation pay exception set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or certain other separation

pay exceptions set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v) of the Code. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, if a general release is required then no payment shall be made until the end of the

forty-five (45)-day determination period and the expiration of the revocation period described

under Section 5(e) (which consideration period and revocation period together may not

exceed sixty (60) days following termination of the Executive’s employment); such

determination shall not preclude application of the short-term deferral exception under

Section 409A of the Code. If the period during which the Executive may execute the general

release begins in one calendar year and ends in the next calendar year, then the payments will

not commence until the second calendar year. To the extent that an amount payable or

benefits to be provided under this Plan do not comply with any of the foregoing exceptions or

other exceptions or exemptions from Code Section 409A, including but not limited to the de

minimis exception, the exception for certain indemnification and liability insurance plans, and

the like under the Code, then the amount shall be subject to the following rules:

(A)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, if on the date of

termination of the Executive’s employment the Executive is a “specified employee,”

within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the Company’s policy for

determining specified employees, then to the extent required in order to comply with

Section 409A of the Code, all payments, benefits, or reimbursements paid or provided

under this Plan that constitute a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of

Section 409A of the Code, that are provided as a result of a “separation from service”

within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and that would otherwise be paid or

provided during the first six (6) months following the date of such termination of

employment shall be accumulated through and paid or provided (together with interest

at the applicable federal rate under Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code in effect on the

date of termination of employment) within thirty (30) days after the first business day

following the six (6)-month anniversary of such termination of employment (or, if the

Executive dies during such six (6)-month period, within thirty (30) days after the

Executive’s death), if and to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code.

(B)For purposes of this Plan, the phrase “termination of employment” or words or phrases

of similar import shall mean a “separation from service” with the Company within the

meaning of Section 409A of the Code. In this regard, the Company and the Executive

shall take all steps necessary (including with regard to any post-termination services

by the Executive) to ensure that (1) any termination of employment under this Plan

constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the

Code, and (2) the date on which such separation from service takes place shall be the

date of the termination of employment for purposes of this Plan.

(C)The Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Plan shall

be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

(D)It is intended that the payments and benefits provided under this Plan shall either be

exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of

the Code. This Plan shall be construed, administered, and governed in a manner that

effects such intent, and the Company shall not take any action that would be

inconsistent with such intent. Without limiting the foregoing, the payments and

benefits provided under this Plan may not be deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out,

or modified in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under

Section 409A of the Code upon the Executive. Although the Company shall use its

best efforts to avoid the imposition of taxation, interest, and penalties under Section

409A of the Code, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under this Plan is not

warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company, its Affiliates, nor their respective

directors, officers, employees, or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest,

penalties, or other monetary amounts owed by the Executive or other taxpayers as a

result of the failure of this Plan to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the

Code.

j.No Employment Contract. Nothing contained in this Plan shall be construed to be an employment

contract between the Executive and the Company. The Executive is employed at will, and the

Company and the Executive may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time, for any reason

or for no reason whatsoever.

k.No Shareholder Rights. Neither the action of the Company in establishing this Plan nor any action

taken by it or the Committee under the provisions hereof, nor any provision of the Plan, shall be

construed as giving to any Executive the legal or equitable rights of a shareholder. This Plan is

intended to compensate key executives for their past and future performance on behalf of the

Company.

l.Amendment and Termination. This Plan may be modified, amended, suspended, or terminated, at

any time and from time to time, only by resolution adopted by the Committee or its delegate;

provided, however, that any modification, amendment, suspension, or termination which would

materially adversely affect the rights or potential rights of any Executive as of the date of such action

shall not be effective against such Executive without his or her prior written consent. Notwithstanding

the foregoing, this Plan may not be terminated or amended in a manner which would adversely affect

the rights or potential rights of any Executive if such action is taken in connection with, in

anticipation of, on, or during the twelve (12)-month period following, a Change in Control.

m.Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or

invalidity of such provision shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be

construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provisions had been excluded.

n.Successors. This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their

respective heirs, representatives, and successors. Any reference in this Plan to the Company shall be

deemed a reference to any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase of shares or assets,

merger or consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the

Company; provided that the Executive’s employment by a successor employer shall not be deemed a

termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

o.Governing Law. It is expressly intended that ERISA preempt the application of state laws to this

Plan to the maximum extent permitted by Section 514 of ERISA. To the extent that state law is

applicable, the interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Plan shall be governed by the

laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.

6.ADMINISTRATION

a.Administrator. Clarivate is the Administrator of the Plan and, for purposes of the Executives subject

to ERISA’s protections (i.e., U.S.-based Executives), Clarivate is the “named fiduciary” within the

meaning of ERISA. Clarivate has delegated the authority to administer the Plan to the Committee.

b.Powers of the Committee. The Committee shall administer the Plan in accordance with its terms and

shall have all powers necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan. The Committee shall have the

discretionary authority to interpret and construe the terms of the Plan and determine all questions

arising in the administration, interpretation, and application of the Plan; such determinations to be

presumptively conclusive and binding on all persons to the maximum extent allowed by law, and

uniformly and consistently applied to all persons in similar circumstances; adopt such rules and

procedures as it deems necessary, desirable, or appropriate for the administration of the Plan; appoint

such agents, counsel, accountants, consultants, and other persons as may be required to administer the

Plan; determine all claims for benefits, and take such further action as the Administrator shall deem

advisable in the administration of the Plan.

c.Delegation. The Committee shall have the discretionary authority to delegate such of its duties and

may engage such experts and other persons as it deems appropriate in connection with administering

the Plan. The Committee shall be entitled to rely in good faith upon any opinions or reports furnished

to it by any such experts or other persons.

d.Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, upon a Change in Control, the

Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, with such changes in the

membership thereof as may be approved from time to time following the Change in Control by a

majority of such Committee as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, shall have sole

and exclusive authority and responsibility (i) to control and manage the operation and administration

of the Plan, with respect to the Executives participating in the Plan immediately prior to the Change

in Control, (ii) for determining the amount of payments and benefits to which the Executives may

become entitled on or following the Change in Control, and (iii) to amend or terminate the Plan with

respect to such Executives. The Company (or any successor thereto) shall not have the right to

appoint members to or remove members from such Committee following, or otherwise in connection

ERISA INFORMATION FOR U.S.-BASED EXECUTIVES

The Plan is an unfunded welfare benefit plan for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act

of 1974 (“ERISA”) and a severance pay plan within the meaning of United States Department of Labor

regulations Section 2510.3-2(b). The Plan is also intended to be maintained by the Company “for the purpose

of providing benefits for a select group of management or highly compensated employees” such that it will

be, among other things, exempt from the reporting and disclosure requirements of Part 1 of Title I of ERISA.

As such, the Plan is intended to be a top hat plan within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and

401(a)(1) of ERISA. This document serves as both the Plan document and the Summary Plan Description for

the Plan for all purposes under ERISA. This Appendix A shall not apply to Executives outside of the United

States who are otherwise subject to local law regarding terms and conditions of employee benefits.

1.CLAIMS PROCEDURES

a.Claim for Benefits. No Executive, beneficiary, or any other person or entity is required to file a formal

claim to receive any benefits to which he or she is entitled under the Plan. However, each Executive,

beneficiary, or any other person or entity who believes that he or she is entitled to a benefit under the

Plan which he or she has not received (“Claimant”) must file a written claim for such benefits under

the Plan with the Administrator to claim any such benefits. A Claimant shall furnish the Administrator

with such documents, evidence, data, or information in support of his or her claim as he or she

considers necessary or desirable. A Claimant may appoint a representative to pursue any claim or

appeal of an adverse benefit determination on his or her behalf, provided that he or she furnishes the

Administrator with a written notice, signed by the Claimant, authorizing the representative to act on his

or her behalf in pursuing a benefit claim or appeal.

b.Initial Claim Review. The Administrator shall review the claim when filed and advise the Claimant as

to whether the claim is approved or denied. If the claim is wholly or partially denied, the Administrator

shall furnish a written or electronic denial within a reasonable period of time, but not later than ninety

(90) days after receipt of the claim by the Plan, unless the Administrator determines that special

circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If the Administrator determines

that an extension of time for processing a claim is required, written notice of the extension shall be

furnished to the Claimant prior to the expiration of the initial ninety (90)-day period, which shall

indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Plan expects

to render a decision. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of ninety (90) days from the end

of the initial period. If the Administrator denies the claim for a benefit in whole or in part, the

Administrator shall provide the Claimant a written or electronic notice of the adverse benefit

determination. The notification shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant:

(i) the specific reason or reasons for the adverse benefit determination; (ii) reference to the specific Plan

provisions on which the determination is based; (iii) a description of any additional material or

information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or

information is necessary; and (iv) a description of the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits

applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under

ERISA Section 502(a) following an adverse benefit determination on review.

c.Appeal of Adverse Benefit Determination. If the claim is denied, a Claimant may appeal the denial of

the claim to the Administrator within sixty (60) days after receipt of the adverse benefit determination.

The appeal shall be in writing addressed to the Administrator and shall state the reason why the

Administrator should grant the appeal. The Claimant may submit written comments, documents,

records, and other information relating to his or her claim for benefits. Upon request and free of charge,

the Claimant shall be provided reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other

information relevant to his claim, as determined under Appendix A, Section 1(g). The Administrator

shall conduct a full and fair review of the claim that takes into account all comments, documents,

records, and other information submitted by the Claimant or his or her authorized representative relating

to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial

benefit determination. The review shall not afford deference to the initial benefit determination and

shall be conducted by one or more individuals who are neither those who made the adverse benefit

determination that is the subject of the appeal, nor the subordinates of such individuals.

d.Timing of Review on Appeal. The Administrator shall notify the Claimant of the determination on

review within a reasonable period of time, but not later than sixty (60) days after receipt of the appeal

unless the Administrator determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for

processing the claim. If the Administrator determines that an extension of time for processing is

required, the Administrator shall notify the Claimant in writing prior to the termination of the initial

sixty (60)-day period, indicating the special circumstances that require an extension of time and the date

the Plan expects to render a determination on appeal. In no event shall such extension exceed a period

of sixty (60) days from the end of such initial period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the

Administrator holds quarterly meetings, the Administrator shall instead make a benefit determination no

later than the date of the meeting that immediately follows the Plan’s receipt of a request for review,

unless the request for review is filed within thirty (30) days preceding the date of such meeting. In such

case, a benefit determination may be made no later than the date of the second meeting following the

Plan’s receipt of the request for review. If special circumstances (such as the need to hold a hearing)

require a further extension of time for processing, a benefit determination shall be rendered not later

than the third meeting of the Administrator following the Plan’s receipt of the request for review. If

such an extension of time for review is required because of special circumstances, the Administrator

shall provide the Claimant with written notice of the extension, describing the special circumstances

and the date as of which the benefit determination will be made, prior to the commencement of the

extension.

e.Denial on Appeal. If the Administrator denies the claim on appeal, it shall furnish the Claimant a

written or electronic adverse benefit determination, stating the reasons for the denial in a manner

calculated to be understood by the Claimant, and shall make specific references to the pertinent Plan

provisions on which the benefit determination is based. The notification of the benefit determination

also shall include a statement of the Claimant’s right 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 the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of

ERISA no later than one (1) year after the final adverse determination on appeal. The Administrator’s

decision upon appeal, or the Administrator’s initial decision if no appeal is taken, shall be final,

conclusive, and binding on all parties, subject to review or correction pursuant to a civil action under

Section 502(a) of ERISA only to the extent that such decision is shown by clear and convincing

evidence to be arbitrary and capricious.

f.Review Following a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following a Change in

Control (and thereafter to the extent the issue in question relates to a termination of employment on or

following the Change in Control of Executives participating in the Plan immediately prior to the

Change in Control), with respect to Executives participating in the Plan immediately prior to the

Change in Control, the Committee described in Section 6(d) of the Plan shall review and administer all

claims, and any appeals of claim denials, of Executives participating in the Plan immediately prior to

the Change in Control, and any such decisions with respect to Executives participating in the Plan

immediately prior to the Change in Control shall be subject to de novo review in the courts.

g.Relevant Documents and Records. For purposes of the foregoing claim procedures, a document,

record, or other information is “relevant” if it: (i) was relied on in making the claim decision; (ii) was

submitted, considered, or generated in making the decision; or (iii) demonstrates compliance with the

Plan’s procedural and administrative safeguards.

h.Exhaustion of Claims Procedures. Completion of the claims procedures described in this Appendix A,

Section 1 is a condition precedent to the commencement of any legal or equitable action in connection

with a claim for benefits under the Plan by any current or former Executive, beneficiary, or any other

person or entity claiming rights in connection with the Plan. After exhaustion of the Plan’s claims

procedures, any further legal action taken against the Plan or its fiduciaries by the Claimant for benefits

under the Plan shall be filed in a court of law no later than one (1) year after the final adverse

determination on appeal. No action at law or in equity shall be brought to recover benefits under this

Plan until the appeal rights provided in this Appendix A, Section 1 have been exercised and the Plan

benefits requested in such appeal have been denied in whole or in part.

2.ERISA RIGHTS

Eligible Executives in the Plan are entitled to certain rights and protections under ERISA. ERISA provides

that all Plan participants shall be entitled to:

Receive Information about the Plan and Benefits

•Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrator’s office, all documents governing the Plan, and a

copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor

and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Employee Benefits Security Administration.

•Obtain, upon written request to the Plan Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of

the Plan, copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series), and an updated summary plan description.

The Plan Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies.

•Receive a summary of the Plan’s annual financial report (if any). The Plan Administrator may be required

by law to furnish each participant with a copy of this summary annual report.

Prudent Actions of Fiduciaries

In addition to creating rights for Plan participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible

for the operation of the Plan. The people who operate the Plan, called “fiduciaries” of the Plan, have a duty to

do so prudently and in the interest of Plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including the Company or

any other person, may fire or otherwise discriminate against a Plan participant under the Plan or prevent the

participant from obtaining a Plan benefit or exercising a right under ERISA.

Enforcing Rights

If the claim for a Plan benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, a participant has a right to know why

this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial,

all within certain time schedules.

Under ERISA, there are steps a participant can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if the participant

requests a copy of the Plan documents or the latest annual report from the Plan Administrator and does not

receive them within thirty (30) days, the participant may file suit in a federal court. In such case, the court

may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay the participant up to $110 a day until the

participant receives the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of

the Plan Administrator.

If the participant has a claim for benefits that is denied after exhaustion of the appeal process, or is ignored, in

whole or in part, the participant may file suit in a state or federal court. If it should happen that Plan

fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s money, or if a participant is discriminated against for asserting the participant’s

rights, the participant may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor or file suit in a federal court.

The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If the participant is successful, the court may

order the person the participant sued to pay these costs and fees. If the participant loses, the court may order

the participant to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds the claim is frivolous.

Assistance with Questions

If a participant has any questions about the Plan, the participant should contact the Plan Administrator. If a

participant has any questions about this statement or about rights under ERISA, or needs assistance in

obtaining documents from the Plan Administrator, the participant should contact the nearest office of the

Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in the telephone directory or

the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S.

Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. Executives may also obtain

certain publications about participant rights and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications

hotline of the Employee Benefits Security Administration.
