On and after the Effective Date, all benefits previously accrued by Transferred Participants under the Sara Lee SERP shall be provided under the Plan, and Transferred Participants shall accrue no additional benefits under the Sara Lee SERP.

     The Plan shall constitute a top hat plan within the meaning of Section 201(2) of ERISA. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Plan is subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and at all times shall be interpreted and administered so that it is consistent with such Code section; provided, however, that the vested benefits of each Transferred Participant who terminated employment with Sara Lee Corporation and all of its Controlled Group Members prior to January 1, 2005 shall be determined in accordance with Subsection 1.6 (and shall not be subject to Code Section 409A), except as otherwise provided in Subsection 3.3.

1.2 Effective Date and Plan Year

     The Plan is effective as of January 1, 2006. The Plan is administered on the basis of a Plan Year.

1.3 Employers

     The Corporation and each other Controlled Group Member that is a participating employer under the Retirement Savings Plan shall be deemed to have adopted the Plan and shall be treated as an Employer hereunder.

1.4 Plan Administration

     As described in Subsection 5.1, the Committee shall be the administrator (as defined in Section 3(16)(A) of ERISA) of the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may delegate all or any part of its powers, rights, and duties under the Plan to such person or persons as it may deem advisable.

1.5 Plan Supplements

     The provisions of the Plan may be modified by supplements to the Plan. The terms and provisions of each supplement are a part of the Plan and supersede the other provisions of the Plan to the extent necessary to eliminate inconsistencies between such other Plan provisions and such supplement.

1.6 Plan Benefits for Participants who Terminated Employment

     The benefits provided under the Plan with respect to any Participant whose employment with the Employers has terminated shall, except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, be governed in all respects by the terms of the Plan in effect as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment (or in the case of a Transferred Participant who Separated from Service prior to the Effective Date, pursuant to the Sara Lee SERP).

Severance Pay Plan (previously known as the Sara Lee Corporation Severance Pay Plan for Employees of Sara Lee Branded Apparel) , and who would satisfy the requirements for early retirement under the Pension Plan if his/her severance period (as defined in the separation agreement pursuant to which the severance benefits are paid) were a period of actual employment under the Pension Plan, then to the extent provided in the Participant’s separation agreement, the Participant’s SERP Benefit shall be increased to reflect the difference between (i) the Pension Plan benefit that would be payable if the years of severance period was recognized as years of vesting service as defined in the Pension Plan; and (ii) the actual Pension Plan benefit; provided, however, that such Participant’s severance period shall not be considered as credited service for purposes of determining the amount of the Participant’s accrued Pension SERP Benefit.

(b) Pension SERP Benefit. A Participant’s Pension SERP Benefit shall become nonforfeitable on the same basis and at the same time as his or her benefit under the Pension Plan.

(B)

If the Participant elects to receive payment of his or her RSSERP Account in installments, any Residual Credit shall be added to the Participant’s RSSERP Account and shall be paid in installments over the remaining installment period.
