Although Plan Sponsor expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, it reserves the right to discontinue, alter or modify the Plan in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason, at its sole determination.

A plan change may transfer plan assets and debts to another plan or split a plan into two or more parts. If the Plan Sponsor does change or terminate a plan, it may decide to set up a different plan providing similar or different benefits.

In addition, if the Plan is amended, Covered Persons may be subject to altered coverage and Benefits. The amount and form of any final benefit you receive will depend on any Plan document or contract provisions affecting the Plan and Plan Sponsor decisions. After all Benefits have been paid and other requirements of the law have been met, certain remaining Plan assets will be turned over to the Plan Sponsor and others as may be required by any applicable law.
