This excerpt taken from the LOGI 10-Q filed Nov 4, 2008. DEFERRAL ELECTIONS 3.1 Elections to Defer Compensation. (a) Initial Election Period. Each Eligible Employee may elect to defer Compensation by filing with the Committee an election that conforms to the requirements of this Section 3.1, on a form provided by the Committee, no later than the last day of his or her Initial Election Period. (b) General Rule. Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (c) below, the amount of Compensation which an Eligible Employee may elect to defer in 2002 and subsequent years is as follows:
provided, however, that no election shall be effective to reduce the Compensation paid to an Eligible Employee for a calendar year to an amount that is less than the amount necessary to pay applicable employment taxes (e.g., FICA, hospital insurance, SDI) payable with respect to amounts deferred hereunder, amounts necessary to satisfy any other benefit plan withholding obligations, any resulting income taxes payable with respect to Compensation that cannot be so deferred, and any amounts necessary to satisfy any wage garnishment or similar type obligations. (c) Minimum Deferrals. For each Plan Year during which the Eligible Employee is a Participant, the minimum dollar amount that may be deferred under this Section 3.1 is $2,500. (d) Effect of Initial Election. An election to defer Compensation during an Initial Election Period shall be effective with respect to Salary earned during the first pay period beginning after the Initial Election Period and to the Commissions and Bonus payable during the Plan Year in which the election is made.

(e) Duration of Compensation Deferral Election. Any Compensation deferral election made under paragraph (a) or paragraph (f) of this Section 3.1 shall remain in effect, notwithstanding any change in the Participants Compensation, until changed or terminated in accordance with the terms of this paragraph (e); provided, however, that such election shall terminate for any Plan Year for which the Participant is not an Eligible Employee. A Participant may increase, terminate and, subject to the minimum deferral request of Section 3.1(c), decrease his or her Compensation deferral election, effective for Salary earned (and in the case of Bonus and Commissions, paid with respect to services performed) during pay periods beginning after the beginning of the next succeeding Plan Year, by filing a new election, in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.1, with the Committee on or before the preceding December 15. In addition, and notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, a Participant may request a termination of his or her Compensation deferral election at any time in the event of an unforeseen financial hardship as determined by the Committee in its discretion. In the event the Committee permits a Participant to terminate his or her Compensation deferral election, no further Compensation shall be deferred for the Participants Account, provided that the Participant may resume Compensation deferral effective for Compensation earned during pay periods beginning after the beginning of the next succeeding Plan Year, by filing a new election, in accordance with the terms of Section 3.1, with the Committee on or before the preceding December 15. (f) Elections Other Than Elections During the Initial Election Period. Any Eligible Employee who fails to elect to defer Compensation during his or her Initial Election Period may subsequently become a Participant, and any Eligible Employee who has terminated a prior deferral election may elect to again defer Compensation, by filing an election, on a form provided by the Committee, to defer Compensation as described in paragraph (b) above. An election to defer Compensation must be filed on or before December 15 and will be effective for Salary earned (and in the case of Bonus and Commissions, paid with respect to services performed) during pay periods beginning after the following January 1. 3.2 Company Contributions. The Company may, in its sole discretion, make discretionary contributions to the Accounts of one or more Participants at such times and in such amounts as the Board may determine. 3.3 Investment Elections. The Committee may, in its discretion, provide each Participant with a list of investment Funds available for hypothetical investment, and the Participant may designate, on a form provided by the Committee, one or more Funds that his or
6
her Account will be deemed to be invested in for purposes of determining the amount of earnings to be credited to that Account. The Committee may, from time to tune, in its sole discretion select a commercially available fund or contract to constitute the Fund actually selected. The Interest Rate of each such commercially available fund or contract shall be used to determine the amount of earnings to be credited to Participants Accounts under Section 4.1(d). In making the designation pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Participant may specify that all or any whole number percentage of his or her Account be deemed to be invested in one or more of the Funds offered by the Committee. Effective as of the end of any calendar month, a Participant may change the designation made under this Section 3.3 by filing an election, on a form provided by the Committee, prior to the end of such month. If a Participant fails to elect a Fund under this Section 3.3, he or she shall be deemed to have elected a money market or similar Fund. The Company may, but need not, acquire investments corresponding to those designated by the Participants hereunder, and it is not under any obligation to maintain any investment it may make. Any such investments, if made, shall be in the name of the Company, and shall be its sole property in which no Participant shall have any interest. |
