In addition, effective for amounts forfeited in 2005 and subsequent years, in the event that any portion of the employer matching contribution allocated to the participant under the AmeriGas Propane, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the “AmeriGas 401(k) Plan”) with respect to a prior plan year is forfeited to satisfy the nondiscrimination requirements of section 401(k), 401(m) or 401(a)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code, the General Partner shall credit to his or her account under the AmeriGas SERP, in the year in which the forfeiture occurs, an amount that is equal to the forfeited employer matching contributions, adjusted for earnings and losses as provided under the AmeriGas 401(k) Plan to the date forfeited. Benefits payable under the AmeriGas SERP shall be paid as soon as practicable after a participant’s retirement or termination for a reason other than Termination For Cause (as defined in the AmeriGas SERP). Except in the case of a change in control, accrual of benefits under the AmeriGas SERP shall immediately cease upon a participant’s retirement or termination of employment with the General Partner.
