Statement of Purpose

The Corporation sponsors the Bank of America 401(k) Restoration Plan (the “Restoration Plan”). The purpose of the Restoration Plan is to provide benefits, on a non-qualified and unfunded basis, to certain associates whose benefits under The Bank of America 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) are adversely affected by the limitations of Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3), 401(m), 402(g) and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code, as well as certain limits placed on the contribution rates of highly compensated participants established by the administrative committee under 401(k) Plan.

By this Instrument, the Corporation is amending and restating the Restoration Plan effective January 1, 2002 to (i) make a number of design changes to the Restoration Plan and (ii) otherwise meet current needs.

ARTICLE III

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PROVISIONS

Section 3.1    Form and Time of Elections.    Prior to January 1 of a Plan Year, or at such other times as may be established by the Personnel Group, a Covered Associate for the Plan Year may elect to defer under the Restoration Plan such amounts as provided by this Article III in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.1. All elections made under this Section 3.1 shall be made in writing on a form, or pursuant to such other non-written procedures, as may be prescribed from time to time by the Personnel Group and shall be irrevocable for such Plan Year. An election by a Covered Associate under this Section 3.1 shall continue in effect for all subsequent Plan Years (during which the Covered Associate is a Highly Compensated Associate or Key Associate) unless and until changed or terminated by the Covered Associate in accordance with procedures established from time to time by the Personnel Group. Any such change in or termination of an election under this Section 3.1 shall be effective as of the January 1 of the next succeeding Plan Year and shall be irrevocable for such Plan Year.

Section 3.2    Deferrals by Highly Compensated Associates.    If a Highly Compensated Associate makes an election to defer in accordance with Section 3.1 above for a Plan Year, the amount attributable to any Pre-Tax Employee Contribution for a particular pay period during the Plan Year which cannot be credited to the Highly Compensated Associate under the 401(k) Plan because of the Code Limitations shall be credited to a Deferral Account established and maintained in the name of the Highly Compensated Associate on the books and records of his or her Participating Employer. Such amount shall be credited to the Deferral Account on, or as soon as administratively practicable after, the date the related 401(k) Plan contributions are made (or would have been made but for the Code Limitations). See Section 3.9 below regarding the effect of “catch-up” contribution elections under the 401(k) Plan.

Section 3.3    Matching Contributions for Highly Compensated Associates.    A Participating Employer shall establish and maintain on its books a Matching Contribution Restoration Account for each Highly Compensated Associate employed by such Participating Employer whose Matching Contributions under the 401(k) Plan shall have been limited, directly or indirectly, by the operation of the Code Limitations. If a Highly Compensated Associate is a Match-Eligible Participant for the Plan Year under the 401(k) Plan, the Highly Compensated Associate’s Matching Contribution Restoration Account shall be credited on, or as soon as administratively practicable after, the date 401(k) Plan Matching Contributions are credited with an amount equal to the sum of Amount A and Amount B, where:

Amount A is one hundred percent (100%) of the sum of the portions (if any) of the amounts credited to the Highly Compensated Associate’s Deferral Account for the Plan Year pursuant to Section 3.2 above that would have been Matchable Pre-Tax Employee Contributions for the Plan Year under the 401(k) Plan had such amounts been contributed to the 401(k) Plan as Pre-Tax Employee Contributions for the Highly Compensated Associate and the Code Limitations not applied to the 401(k) Plan.

Amount B is one hundred percent (100%) of the portion (if any) of the actual

5

Matchable Pre-Tax Employee Contributions made to the 401(k) Plan for the Highly Compensated Associate for the Plan Year with respect to which Matching Contribution allocations were not made under Section 5.4 of the 401(k) Plan or (if made) were forfeited under Section 5.4 of the 401(k) Plan because of the Code Limitations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount shall be credited to the Matching Contribution Restoration Account of a Highly Compensated Associate for a Plan Year to the extent it relates to bonus, incentive or commission compensation payable to the Highly Compensated Associate for the Plan Year in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); provided, however, that for a Highly Compensated Associate who first becomes eligible to participate in the Restoration Plan on July 1, 2000 as a result of the merger of the DCP or SRP into the Restoration Plan on that date, the foregoing limit shall apply only with respect to bonuses, incentives or commissions earned and paid following July 1, 2000. In addition, the Plan Administrator may determine, in its sole and exclusive discretion, to deduct from the amount otherwise to be credited to the Matching Contribution Restoration Account of a Highly Compensated Associate for a Plan Year an amount necessary to pay any related payroll taxes. See Section 3.10 below regarding certain special matching contributions under the Restoration Plan related to participation in the EIP.

Section 3.4    Deferrals by Key Associates

(a)    Deferral Accounts for Key Associates.    A Participating Employer shall establish and maintain on its books a Deferral Account for each Key Associate employed by such Participating Employer who elects pursuant to Section 3.1 to defer the receipt of any amount under the Restoration Plan. Such Deferral Account shall be designated by the name of the Key Associate for whom established. The amount to be deferred under this Section 3.4 for a payroll period shall be credited to such Deferral Account on, or as soon as administratively practicable after, the date the related 401(k) Plan contributions are made (or would have been made but for the Code Limitations). See Section 3.9 below regarding the effect of “catch-up” contribution elections under the 401(k) Plan.

(b) Election to Defer Base Salary.    A Key Associate may elect to defer, on a combined basis with the 401(k) Plan as hereinafter provided, up to thirty percent (30%) of the Key Associate’s base salary for a Plan Year. Deferrals shall be made to the maximum extent possible, subject to the Code Limitations, to the 401(k) Plan, and any such deferrals which cannot be made to the 401(k) Plan solely because of the Code Limitations shall instead be made to this Restoration Plan.

(c) Election to Defer Covered Annual Incentive Award.    Each Key Associate for a Plan Year may elect pursuant to Section 3.1 above to defer for the Plan Year up to ninety percent (90%) of any Annual Incentive Award otherwise payable to the Key Associate for the Plan Year. Such deferral shall be made without regard to the Code Limitations. Any portion of an Annual Incentive Award not deferred under the Restoration Plan shall be excluded from the Key Associate’s Compensation in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and provisions of the 401(k) Plan (and therefore shall not be included in determining the amount of the Key Associate’s Pre-Tax Employee Contributions under the 401(k) Plan).

Section 3.5    Matching Contributions for Key Associates.

(a)     Matching Contribution Restoration Account for Key Associates.    A Participating Employer shall establish and maintain on its books a Matching Contribution Restoration Account for each Key Associate employed by such Participating Employer who is credited with a matching contribution under this Section 3.5. Such Matching Contribution Restoration Account shall be designated by the name of the Key Associate for whom established.

(b)    Matching Contributions for Base Salary Deferrals.    If a Key Associate is a Match-Eligible Participant for the Plan Year under the 401(k) Plan, the Key Associate’s Matching Contribution Restoration Account shall be credited on, or as soon as administratively practicable after, the date 401(k) Plan Matching Contributions are credited with an amount determined consistent with the provisions of Section 3.3 above with respect to any base salary deferrals for the Plan Year pursuant to Section 3.4(b) above.

(c)    Matching Contributions for Annual Incentive Awards.    If a Key Associate is a Match-Eligible Participant for a Plan Year under the 401(k) Plan and has deferred any portion of the Key Associate’s Annual Incentive Award under Section 3.4(c) that would have otherwise been paid during the Plan Year, then the Matching Contribution Restoration Account of the Key Associate shall be credited on, or as soon as administratively practicable after, the date 401(k) Plan Matching Contributions are credited with a matching contribution equal to the amount of the Annual Incentive Award otherwise payable during the Plan Year that is deferred by the Key Associate pursuant to Section 3.4(c) above, but excluding any such deferrals that exceed five percent (5%) of the Key Associate’s total Annual Incentive Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum amount of such matching contribution for a Plan Year shall equal Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (i.e., the matching contribution shall not be based on the portion of an Annual Incentive Award exceeding $1,000,000). See Section 3.10 below regarding certain special matching contributions under the Restoration Plan related to participation in the EIP.

(d)    Payroll Taxes.    The Plan Administrator may determine, in its sole and exclusive discretion, to deduct from the amount otherwise to be credited to the Matching Contribution Restoration Account of a Key Associate for a Plan Year an amount necessary to pay any related payroll taxes.

Section 3.6    Account Adjustments

(a)    Account Adjustments for Deemed Investments.    The Committee shall from time to time designate one or more investment vehicle(s) in which the Accounts of Covered Associates shall be deemed to be invested. The investment vehicle(s) may be designated by reference to the investments available under other plans sponsored by a Participating Employer (including the 401(k) Plan). Each Covered Associate shall designate the investment vehicle(s) in which his or her Account shall be deemed to be invested according to the procedures developed by the Personnel Group, except as otherwise required by the terms of the Restoration Plan. No Participating Employer shall be under an obligation to acquire or invest in any of the deemed investment vehicle(s) under this subparagraph, and any acquisition of or investment in a deemed

7

investment vehicle by a Participating Employer shall be made in the name of the Participating Employer and shall remain the sole property of the Participating Employer. Effective July 1, 2000, the designated investment vehicles shall be (and shall remain until such time as changed by the Committee in its sole discretion from time to time according to its procedures for designating investments) the following:

(i)    Nations LifeGoal Income & Growth Portfolio;

(ii)    Nations LifeGoal Balanced Growth Portfolio;

(iii)    Nations LifeGoal Growth Portfolio;

(iv)    Nations LargeCap Index;

(v)    Nations MidCap Index Fund;

(vi)    Nations SmallCap Index Fund;

(vii)    Stable Capital Fund;

(viii)    Nations Bond Fund;

(ix)    Nations Value Fund;

(xii)    Bank of America Corporation Common Stock Fund; and

(xiii)    Effective as of January 1, 2003, Batterymarch U.S. Small Capitalization Equity Portfolio.

The Committee shall also establish from time to time a default Fund into which a Covered Associate’s Account shall be deemed to be invested if the Covered Associate fails to provide investment instructions pursuant to this Section 3.6(a). Effective July 1, 2000, such default Fund shall be the Stable Capital Fund.

(b)    Periodic Account Adjustments.    Each Account shall be adjusted from time to time at such intervals as determined by the Personnel Group. The Personnel Group may determine the frequency of account adjustments by reference to the frequency of account adjustments under another plan sponsored by a Participating Employer. The amount of the adjustment shall equal the amount that each Covered Associate’s Account would have earned (or lost) for the period since the last adjustment had the Account actually been invested in the 401(k) Plan in the deemed investment vehicle(s) designated by the Covered Associate for such period pursuant to Section 3.6(a).

Section 3.7    Account Payments Following Termination of Employment.

(a)    Payment Options.

(i)    A Covered Associate may make or change a payment option election among any of the payment options described in subparagraph (ii) below, subject to the provisions of subparagraph (iii) below. The election shall not become effective until the later of:

(A)    the date that is twelve (12) months (or such lesser period as the Personnel Group may determine in its discretion consistent with the Corporation’s intent that benefits be subject to taxation as and

8

when actually received by the Covered Associate) after the date that the election is made if the Covered Associate remains in active service throughout that period (as determined by the Personnel Group in its discretion); or

(B) the date the Covered Associate becomes eligible for Retirement.

(ii) The payment options from which a Covered Associate may elect are as follows: (A) single cash payment, (B) five (5) annual installments or (C) ten (10) annual installments, as such methods are more fully described below.

(iii) Any election made under this Section 3.7(a) shall be made on such form, at such time and pursuant to such procedures as determined by the Personnel Group in its sole discretion from time to time. A Covered Associate may not have more than two (2) payment elections pending under this Section 3.7(a) at any one time.

(iv) For a Covered Associate who does not yet have an election in effect under this Section 3.7(a) or for a Covered Associate who fails to elect a payment option under this Section 3.7(a), the method of payment shall be the single cash payment.

(b)    Single Cash Payments.    The following provisions shall apply with respect to single cash payments under the Restoration Plan:

(i)    If a Covered Associate terminates employment with the Participating Employers either (A) before eligibility for Retirement or (B) with a vested Account balance (determined as of the Benefit Determination Date) that is Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) or less (even if the Covered Associate has elected and is otherwise eligible for installment payments), then the Covered Associate’s Account, to the extent vested, shall be determined as of the Benefit Determination Date, and such final vested Account balance shall be paid in a single cash payment to the Covered Associate (or to the Covered Associate’s Beneficiary in the case of the Covered Associate’s death) as soon as administratively practicable after the Benefit Determination Date.

(ii) If a Covered Associate Retires with a vested Account balance (determined as of the Benefit Determination Date) exceeding Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) and with a single cash payment election in effect under Section 3.7(a), then such Covered Associate’s Account, to the extent vested, shall continue to be credited with adjustments under Section 3.6 through the last day of the Plan Year in which the Retirement occurs. The final vested Account balance as of the last day of such Plan Year shall be paid in a single cash payment to the Covered Associate (or to the Covered Associate’s Beneficiary in the case of the Covered Associate’s death) within ninety (90) days following the end of such Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the applicable Benefit

9

Determination Date occurs in the Plan Year after the Plan Year in which the Retirement occurs, then the single cash payment shall be in the amount of the Account Balance determined as of the Benefit Determination Date and shall be payable as soon as administratively practicable after the Benefit Determination Date.

(c)    Annual Installments.    If a Covered Associate Retires with a vested Account balance (determined as of the Benefit Determination Date) exceeding Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) and with an installment payment election in effect under Section 3.7(a), then the amount of the annual installments shall be calculated and paid pursuant to the following provisions:

(i)    Timing of Payments.    The first installment shall be paid within ninety (90) days following the end of the Plan Year in which the Covered Associate Retires; provided, however, that if the applicable Benefit Determination Date occurs in the Plan Year after the Plan Year in which Retirement occurs, then the first installment shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable after the Benefit Determination Date. Each subsequent installment shall be paid within ninety (90) days following the end of each subsequent Plan Year during the selected payment period.

(ii)    Amount of Installments.    The amount payable for each installment shall equal the Account balance as of the end of the applicable Plan Year divided by the number of remaining installments (including the installment then payable); provided, however, that if the applicable Benefit Determination Date occurs in the Plan Year after the Plan Year in which Retirement occurs, then the amount of the first installment shall be based on the amount of the Account balance as of such Benefit Determination Date.

(iii)    Investment of Account During Payment Period.    The Covered Associate’s Account, to the extent vested, shall continue to be credited with adjustments under Section 3.6 through the end of the Plan Year in which the Covered Associate Retires (or through the applicable Benefit Determination Date if the Benefit Determination Date occurs in the Plan Year after the Plan Year in which Retirement occurs). If the Covered Associate has elected to receive payment through five (5) annual installments, then the Covered Associate shall be permitted to continue to direct the investment of the Covered Associate’s unpaid Account balance in accordance with Section 3.6 during the payment period (i.e., through the last day of the fourth Plan Year after the Plan Year in which the Covered Associate Retires). If the Covered Associate has elected to receive payment through ten (10) annual installments, then the Covered Associate’s unpaid Account balance shall be deemed invested in the Stable Capital Fund during the payment period (i.e., through the last day of the ninth Plan Year after the Plan Year in which the Covered Associate Retires).

(iv)    Death of Covered Associate.    If a Covered Associate covered by

10

this Section 3.7(c) dies, then the annual installments (or remaining annual installments in the case of death after commencement of payment) shall be paid to the Covered Associate’s Beneficiary as and when such installments would have otherwise been paid to the Covered Associate had the Covered Associate not died.

(d)    Vesting of Matching Accounts.    Notwithstanding any provision of the Restoration Plan to the contrary, if a Covered Associate is not fully (100%) vested in the amount credited to the Associate’s Matching Contribution Account under the 401(k) Plan at the time of the Associate’s termination of employment with the Participating Employers, then the amount credited to the Covered Associate’s Matching Contribution Restoration Account shall be reduced as of the applicable Benefit Determination Date to an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount then credited to said Matching Contribution Restoration Account multiplied by (ii) the vested percentage applicable to the Associate’s Matching Contribution Account and Pre-1993 Stock/Thrift Plan Matching Contribution Account under the 401(k) Plan as of the date of such termination of employment. The amount by which the Associate’s Matching Contribution Restoration Account is reduced by application of the preceding sentence shall be forfeited as of the applicable Benefit Determination Date.

(e)    Other Payment Provisions.    Subject to the provisions of Section 3.8, a Covered Associate shall not be paid any portion of the Associate’s Account prior to the Associate’s termination of employment with the Participating Employers. Any deferral or payment hereunder shall be subject to applicable payroll and withholding taxes. In the event any amount becomes payable under the provisions of the Restoration Plan to a Covered Associate, Beneficiary or other person who is a minor or an incompetent, whether or not declared incompetent by a court, such amount may be paid directly to the minor or incompetent person or to such person’s fiduciary (or attorney-in-fact in the case of an incompetent) as the Personnel Group, in its sole discretion, may decide, and the Personnel Group shall not be liable to any person for any such decision or any payment pursuant thereto.

(f)    Former DCP and SRP Participants.    Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Restoration Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to a Covered Associate who was participating in the DCP or SRP as of June 30, 2000:

(i)    If the Covered Associate has in effect as of June 30, 2000 an installment payment election (but not including an annuity payment election based on the Covered Associate’s life or the joint life of the Covered Associate and his or her Beneficiary) under the DCP or (if no installment payment election is in effect under the DCP) the SRP (a “Prior Plan Installment Election”), then the Covered Associate’s vested Account balance shall be payable in the number of installments provided by such Prior Plan Installment Election (even if the Covered Associate is not eligible for Retirement) unless either (A) the Covered Associate changes such election in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.7(a)(ii) above or this Section 3.7(f) or (B) the Covered Associate’s vested Account balance is Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) or less as of the applicable Benefit Determination Date (in which case the Account shall be payable in a single cash payment in accordance with Section 3.7(b)(i) above).

11

(ii)    Notwithstanding any provision of the Prior Plan Installment Election to the contrary, the timing of the installment payments and the method for determining the amount of each installment payment shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.7(c)(i) and (ii) above.

(iii)    Notwithstanding any provision of the Prior Plan Installment Election to the contrary, if the Prior Plan Installment Election had been made under the SRP with a payment period of five (5) years or less or under the DCP (regardless of the payment period), then the Account may continue to be invested during the payment period in accordance with the Covered Associate’s investment election as provided in Section 3.6 (consistent with the provisions of Section 3.7(c)(iii) applicable to five (5) annual installments). However, if the Prior Plan Installment Election had been made under the SRP with a payment period in excess of five (5) years, then the Account shall be deemed invested in the Stable Capital Fund during the payment period (consistent with the provisions of Section 3.7(c)(iii) applicable to ten (10) annual installments).

(iv)    If a Covered Associate to which this Section 3.7(f) applies is not eligible for Retirement, then (A) the Covered Associate may at any time elect to change the method of payment to a single cash payment and (B) the Covered Associate may elect on or before August 31, 2000 to change the method of payment to either a single cash payment or five (5) or ten (10) year annual installments. In either case, such election shall not become effective until the date that is twelve (12) months (or such lesser period as the Personnel Group may determine in its discretion consistent with the Corporation’s intent that benefits be subject to taxation as and when actually received by the Covered Associate) after the date that the election is made if the Covered Associate remains in active service throughout that period (as determined by the Personnel Group in its discretion).

(v)    In the case of a former DCP or SRP participant who is not employed by the Participating Employers as of July 1, 2000, payments of DCP and SRP balances shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the DCP and SRP, as applicable, except that any participant-directed investment of DCP accounts shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.6 above.

Section 3.8    In-Service Withdrawals.

(a)    Withdrawals on Demand.    A Covered Associate who is in the active service of a Participating Employer may elect to receive an unscheduled payment of up to one hundred percent (100%) of his or her vested Account balance at any time; provided, however, that (i) ten percent (10%) of the amount requested shall be forfeited from the Covered Associate’s Account and (ii) the Covered Associate shall be ineligible to participate in the Restoration Plan for the remainder of the Plan Year in which the withdrawal is made and one (1) Plan Year thereafter.

12

(b)    Withdrawals on Account of an Unforeseeable Emergency.    A Covered Associate who is in active service of a Participating Employer may, in the Committee’s sole discretion, receive a refund of all or any part of the amounts previously credited to the Covered Associate’s Accounts (to the extent vested) in the case of an “unforeseeable emergency”. A Covered Associate requesting a payment pursuant to this Section shall have the burden of proof of establishing, to the Committee’s satisfaction, the existence of such “unforeseeable emergency”, and the amount of the payment needed to satisfy the same. In that regard, the Covered Associate shall provide the Committee with such financial data and information as the Committee may request. If the Committee determines that a payment should be made to a Covered Associate under this Section such payment shall be made within a reasonable time after the Committee’s determination of the existence of such “unforeseeable emergency” and the amount of payment so needed. The Committee may in its discretion establish the order in which amounts shall be withdrawn under this Section from a Covered Associate’s Accounts. As used herein, the term “unforeseeable emergency” means a severe financial hardship to a Covered Associate resulting from a sudden and unexpected illness or accident of the Covered Associate or of a dependent of the Covered Associate, loss of the Covered Associate’s property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Covered Associate. The circumstances that shall constitute an “unforeseeable emergency” shall depend upon the facts of each case, but, in any case, payment may not be made to the extent that such hardship is or may be relieved (i) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, or (ii) by liquidation of the Covered Associate’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship. Examples of what are not considered to be “unforeseeable emergencies” include the need to send a Covered Associate’s child to college or the purchase of a home. Withdrawals of amounts because of an “unforeseeable emergency” shall not exceed an amount reasonably needed to satisfy the emergency need. If any withdrawal is permitted pursuant to this Section during a Plan Year, no further deferral of compensation shall be made during the Plan Year from and after the effective date of the withdrawal.

Section 3.9    Catch-Up Contributions.    Certain Covered Associates may become eligible under the 401(k) Plan to make “catch-up” contributions (within the meaning of Section 414(v) of the Code). Any such catch-up contributions made to the 401(k) Plan shall not in any manner affect the determination of the amount of deferrals to the Restoration Plan under Sections 3.2 or 3.4, as applicable. Instead, such catch-up contributions shall be in addition to the aggregate combined deferrals elected to the 401(k) Plan and Restoration Plan hereunder.

Section 3.10    EIP.    Under the EIP, a percentage of an eligible Associate’s annual incentive award earned for a performance period beginning on or after January 1, 2002 is made in the form of an award of restricted stock shares or restricted stock units granted under the Bank of America Corporation 2003 Key Associate Stock Plan. The remaining portion of the Associate’s annual incentive award is payable in cash. Only the portion of the Associate’s annual incentive award payable in cash is eligible for deferral under the 401(k) Plan or the Restoration Plan. However, for an Associate covered by the EIP who is a Match-Eligible Participant under the 401(k) Plan for the Plan Year in which the cash portion of such annual incentive award is paid and who either:

13

the Associate’s Participating Employer shall credit a Matching Contribution Restoration Account in the Associate’s name with an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the “Principal Amount” (as defined in the EIP) with respect to such annual incentive award; provided, however, that no matching contribution shall be made under this Section to the extent that the EIP Principal Amount, when added to the cash portion of the annual incentive award, would exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). For purposes of this Section, the EIP Principal Amount for a Covered Associate who is in Band 0 shall be the amount communicated to the Personnel Group by the Corporation’s Executive Compensation group as the EIP Principal Amount. Such Matching Contribution Restoration Account shall be subject to the provisions of the Restoration Plan applicable to such Accounts, including without limitation the vesting provisions of Section 3.7(d) and other payment provisions of Section 3.7(e).

Section 3.11    Special Provisions Related to Completion Incentives.    For a Covered Associate who receives a Completion Incentive in a Plan Year which relates to one or more prior Plan Years, the following provisions shall apply:

14

3.3 and Section 3.5 above shall be applied separately with respect to each such Plan Year taking into account the portion of the Completion Incentive allocated to such Plan Year under subparagraph (i) above. However, the rate of such matching contributions shall be based on the rate of match in effect at the time the Completion Incentive is paid.

Section 3.12    Other Contributions.    The Participating Employers may from time to time, in their sole and exclusive discretion, elect to credit a Covered Associate’s Account with additional amounts not otherwise contemplated by this Article III.

ARTICLE IV

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

Section 4.1    Amendment and Termination.    The Corporation shall have the right and power at any time and from time to time to amend the Restoration Plan in whole or in part, on behalf of all Participating Employers, and at any time to terminate the Restoration Plan or any Participating Employer’s participation hereunder; provided, however, that no such amendment or termination shall reduce the amount actually credited to the Account(s) of any current or former Covered Associate (or beneficiary of a deceased Covered Associate) on the date of such amendment or termination, or further defer the due dates for the payment of such amounts, without the consent of the affected person. In connection with any termination of the Restoration Plan the Corporation shall have the authority to cause the Accounts of all current and former Covered Associates (and beneficiary of any deceased Covered Associates) to be paid in a single sum payment as of a date determined by the Corporation or to otherwise accelerate the payment of all Accounts in such manner as the Corporation shall determine in its discretion.

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 5.1    Nature of Plan and Rights.    The Restoration Plan is unfunded and intended to constitute an incentive and deferred compensation plan for a select group of officers and key management employees of the Participating Employers. If necessary to preserve the above intended plan status, the Committee, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to limit or reduce the number of actual participants and otherwise to take any remedial or curative action that the Committee deems necessary or advisable. The Accounts established and maintained under the Restoration Plan by a Participating Employer are for accounting purposes only and shall not be deemed or construed to create a trust fund of any kind or to grant a property interest of any kind to any Associate, designated beneficiary or estate. The amounts credited by a Participating Employer to such Accounts are and for all purposes shall continue to be a part of the general assets of such Participating Employer, and to the extent that an Associate, beneficiary or estate acquires a right to receive payments from such Participating Employer pursuant to the Restoration Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of such Participating Employer.

Section 5.2    Termination of Employment.    For the purposes of the Restoration Plan, an Associate’s employment with a Participating Employer shall not be considered to have terminated so long as the Associate is in the employ of any Participating Employer, other member of the Controlled Group or any other entity as the Personnel Group may designate.

Section 5.3    Spendthrift Provision.    No Account balance or other right or interest under the Restoration Plan of an Associate, beneficiary or estate may be assigned, transferred or alienated, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law, and no such balance, right or interest shall be liable for or subject to any debt, obligation or liability of the Associate, designated beneficiary or estate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participating Employers shall have the right to offset from a Covered Associate’s unpaid benefits under the Restoration Plan any amounts due and owing from the Covered Associate to the extent permitted by law.

Section 5.4    Employment Noncontractual.    The establishment of the Restoration Plan shall not enlarge or otherwise affect the terms of any Associate’s employment with his Participating Employer, and such Participating Employer may terminate the employment of the Associate as freely and with the same effect as if the Restoration Plan had not been established.

Section 5.5    Adoption by Other Participating Employers.    The Restoration Plan may be adopted by any Participating Employer participating under the 401(k) Plan, such adoption to be effective as of the date specified by such Participating Employer at the time of adoption.

Section 5.6    Applicable Law.    The Restoration Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, except to the extent such laws are preempted by the laws of the United States of America.

Section 5.7    Merged Plans.    From time to time the Participating Employers may cause other nonqualified plans to be merged into the Restoration Plan. Schedule 5.7 attached hereto

16

sets forth the names of the plans that merged into the Restoration Plan by January 1, 2002 and their respective merger dates. Schedule 5.7 shall be updated from time to time to reflect mergers after January 1, 2002.

Upon such a merger, the account balance(s) immediately prior to the date of merger of each participant in the merged plan shall be transferred and credited as of the merger date to one or more accounts established under the Restoration Plan for such participant. From and after the merger date, the participant’s rights shall be determined under the Restoration Plan, and the participant shall be subject to all of the restrictions, limitations and other terms and provisions of the Restoration Plan. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Restoration Plan Account established for the participant as a result of the merger shall be periodically adjusted when and as provided in Section 3.6 hereof as in effect from time to time and shall be paid at such time and in such manner as provided in Section 3.7 and Section 3.8 hereof, except to the extent otherwise provided on Schedule 5.7. The Personnel Group shall, in its discretion, establish any procedures it deems necessary or advisable in order to administer any such plan mergers, including without limitation procedures for transitioning from the method of account adjustments under the prior plan to the methods provided for under the Restoration Plan.

Section 5.8    Status Under the Act.    The Restoration Plan is maintained for purposes of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees. In addition, to the extent that the Restoration Plan makes up benefits limited under the 401(k) Plan as a result of Section 415 of the Code, the Restoration Plan shall be considered an “excess benefit plan” within the meaning of the Act.

Section 5.9    Claims Procedure.    Any claim for benefits under the Restoration Plan by a Covered Associate or Beneficiary shall be made in accordance with the claims procedures set forth in the 401(k) Plan.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this instrument has been executed by the Corporation on December 20, 2002.
