Scope of Supplemental Plan and
Definitions
1.1 Introduction . This
Supplemental Plan (409A Grandfathered Component), amended through
January 1, 2009, and as it may hereafter be amended from time
to time, establishes the rights to specified benefits for certain
officers and managers or highly compensated employees who retire or
otherwise terminate their Employment on or after January 1,
1989. The rights of any such individual who retired or otherwise
terminated Employment prior to January 1, 1989 shall be
subject to the terms of the Supplemental Plan as in effect at the
date of retirement or termination, except to the extent otherwise
provided herein. This Supplemental Plan is intended to be a
non-qualified supplemental retirement plan which is unfunded and
maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred
compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated
employees of the Company, pursuant to sections 201, 301 and 401 of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”) and, as such, to be exempt from the
provisions of Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Subtitle B of Title I of
ERISA.
1.2 Applicability . The
Supplemental Plan was bifurcated into two components, effective
January 1, 2009. As reflected in the terms of this document,
one such component is applicable solely to those benefits that
were, as of December 31, 2004, both accrued and fully vested
in accordance with the terms of the Supplemental Plan as in effect
on December 31, 2004, which terms were not materially modified
after October 3, 2004. The Supplemental Plan benefit governed
by the terms of this 409A Grandfathered Component generally is
determined by measuring a Participant’s accrued benefit as if
he had a Separation from Service on the earlier of the date of his
actual Separation from Service or December 31, 2004, and
applying the terms of the Supplemental Plan, the Pension Plan and
the various applicable Code limits as of that date (except as
modified herein). With respect to any other amounts accrued under
the Supplemental Plan, the rights of the Participant shall be
governed by the component of the Supplemental Plan known as the
“Supplemental Pension Plan (409A Non-Grandfathered Component)
for Officers and Managers of Union Pacific Corporation and
Affiliates, effective January 1, 1989, including all
amendments adopted through January 1, 2009.”

following terms have the meanings set forth below, unless a
different meaning is plainly required by the context:
(a) “Administrator”
means the Senior Vice President-Human Resources of Union Pacific

Affiliated Company (other than an Affiliated Company that would
remain such if the phrase “100 percent” were

section 1563(a)(1) of the Code, which is then incorporated
by
2
reference in sections 414(b) and (c) of the
Code) is included in the Supplemental Plan by virtue of action by
the Administrator, unless the Board of Directors of Union Pacific
ratifies such action not later than its first regularly scheduled
meeting held subsequent to the taking of such action by the

included as of the close of business on the last day of the month

Company shall accrue a benefit under the Supplemental
Plan.

but only to the extent that such
incentive compensation or retention stock (or retention units) is
not taken into account in computing the Participant’s Final

limit under section 401(a)(17) of the Code or the provisions of
Alternative II-D set forth in Section 3.01(c) of the Pension
Plan (each as determined as of the earlier of the date of the
Participant’s Separation from Service or December 31,

forego or defer payment under a plan of the Company or an
Affiliated Company; provided, however, that for purposes of
calculating a Participant’s benefit under this Supplemental
Plan (409A Grandfathered Component) no more than the three highest
awards of Incentive Compensation shall be counted in the

earlier of the Participant’s actual Separation from Service
or December 31, 2004 (assuming the Participant had a

2.2 Early Supplemental
Pension.
(a) Participant Retires on Early

(b) adjusted for payment as of the early benefit start date in
accordance with Section 6.03 of the Pension Plan, taking into
account any additional years of age described in

and offset portions of the benefit in Section 2.1(a) (except
as provided otherwise in Section 2.11 or 2.12).

Supplemental Pension Retirement Date . The following provisions
apply to a Participant retiring on an Early Supplemental Pension

Supplemental Retirement Date as of December 31, 2004 if he had
Separated from Service on such date:
(i) Participant Is Eligible to
Start Pension Plan Benefit . Subject to the provisions of
Articles Three, Five and Eleven, a Participant retiring on such an
Early Supplemental Pension Retirement Date who is (or would have
been) eligible to start a benefit under the Pension Plan upon the
earlier of his retirement or December 31, 2004 may receive a
Normal or Early Supplemental Pension as described in subsection
(a); provided, however, that, for purposes of determining the Early
Supplemental Pension as described in (a)(ii), above:
(A) the amount described in
Section 2.1(a) shall be adjusted for payment as of the early
benefit start date in accordance with Section 6.03 of the
Pension Plan, taking into account any additional years of age
described in Section 1.3(c)(ii) for purposes of adjusting both
the gross and offset portions of the benefit in Section 2.1(a)
(except as provided otherwise in Section 2.11 or 2.12);
and
(B) the amount described in
Section 2.1(b) shall be adjusted for payment as of the early
benefit start date in accordance with Section 6.04 of the
Pension Plan.
(ii) Participant Is Not Eligible
to Start Pension Plan Benefit . Subject to the provisions of
Article Three, Five and Eleven, a Participant retiring on an Early
Supplemental Pension Retirement Date who either is not (or would
not have been) vested in or eligible to start a benefit under the
Pension Plan upon the earlier of his retirement or
December 31, 2004 shall receive an Early Supplemental Pension,
in the form of a single life annuity commencing on the first day of
the month following his Early Supplemental Pension Retirement Date,
the amount of which shall be determined as follows:
9
(A) Prior to the earliest date, if
any, that the Participant is eligible to start benefits under the
Pension Plan, the Early Supplemental Pension payable under this
provision shall be computed in the same manner as the Normal
Supplemental Pension, except that:
(I) the amount described in
Section 2.1(a) shall be adjusted for payment as of the early
benefit start date as described in Section 6.03 of the Pension
Plan for Pension Plan payments starting on an Early Retirement
Date, taking into account any additional years of age described in
Section 1.3(c)(ii) for purposes of adjusting both the gross
and offset portions of the benefit in Section 2.1(a) (except
as provided otherwise in Section 2.11 or 2.12); and
(II) the amount described in
Section 2.1(b) shall be zero for purposes of determining the
Early Supplemental Pension payable prior to the earliest date, if
any, on which the Participant is eligible to start benefits under
the Pension Plan.
(B) On and after the earliest date,
if any, that the Participant is eligible to start benefits under
the Pension Plan, the Early Supplemental Pension shall equal the
excess of:
(I) the amount described in
Section 2.2(b)(ii)(A)(I), above, calculated as of the early
benefit start date on which payments under the Supplemental Plan
(409A Grandfathered Component) began, over
(II) the amount described in
Section 2.1(b) reduced for early payment in accordance with
Section 6.04 of the Pension Plan as of such “earliest
date” whether or not the Participant’s Pension Plan
benefit starts on that date.
Effective for benefits starting
before July 25, 2002, payments under this subparagraph (b)(ii)
were made as described above unless the Administrator advised the
Participant to the contrary.
2.3 Postponed Supplemental
Pension . Subject to the provisions of Articles Three, Five and
Eleven, a Participant who retires on a Postponed Retirement Date
shall be entitled to a Postponed Supplemental Pension, in the form
of a single life annuity commencing at the Postponed Retirement
Date, which is equal to the Normal Supplemental Pension, computed
in accordance with Section 2.1 based on his Total Credited
Service, Total Offset Service, etc. as of the Participant’s
Postponed Retirement Date (instead of his Normal Retirement Date),
or, if earlier, as of his Required Beginning Date. If a
Participant’s benefits begin on his Required Beginning Date
and prior to his termination of Employment, the Participant’s
benefits shall be adjusted thereafter as described in
Section 8.06 of the Pension Plan.
2.4 Surviving Spouse’s
Pension (Post-Retirement Automatic Survivor Annuity)
.
(a) The Surviving Spouse of a
Participant who dies while receiving a Normal or Postponed
Supplemental Pension or an Early Supplemental Pension determined
under Section 2.2(a) on a date that qualifies as an Early
Retirement Date shall be entitled to a Surviving Spouse’s
Pension equal to one-half of the single life annuity amount of the
Normal, Early, or Postponed Supplemental Pension payable to such
deceased Participant under the Supplemental Plan (409A
Grandfathered Component). Such Surviving Spouse’s Pension
shall be payable to
10
such Spouse in equal monthly payments for life,
commencing on the first day of the month immediately following the
death of such Participant.
(b) The Surviving Spouse of a
Participant who dies while receiving an Early Supplemental Pension
determined under Section 2.2(b), on an Early Supplemental
Pension Retirement Date ( i.e. , a date that does not
qualify as an Early Retirement Date), shall be entitled to a
Surviving Spouse’s Pension. The Surviving Spouse’s
Pension shall be payable in equal monthly payments for the
Surviving Spouse’s life, commencing on the first day of the
month immediately following the Participant’s death, which
shall equal one-half of the single life annuity amount calculated
for the Participant under Section 2.2(b)(i)(A) or
2.2(b)(ii)(A)(I), as appropriate, as of the Participant’s
early benefit start date; provided, however, that monthly payments
to the Surviving Spouse shall be reduced by any pre-retirement
survivor benefit that the Surviving Spouse is entitled to receive
from the Pension Plan attributable to the Participant’s
accrued benefit under the Pension Plan as of the earlier of the
Participant’s Separation from Service or December 31,
2004 from the earliest date following the Participant’s death
that such survivor benefit is payable from the Pension Plan, even
if benefits to the Surviving Spouse have not started on that
earliest date. Effective for benefits starting before July 25,
2002, payments under this subsection (b) were made as
described above unless the Administrator advised the Participant
and/or Surviving Spouse to the contrary.
(c) The Surviving Spouse’s
Pension described in this Section 2.4 is payable in addition
to any other death benefit that may be payable to the Surviving
Spouse or other beneficiary of the Participant under the form of
payment in which the Participant’s Supplemental Pension is
paid pursuant to Article Three. However, except with respect to
Participants who qualify for the enhancements described in Sections
2.7, 2.9, 2.10, 2.11 or 2.12, in no event shall the Surviving
Spouse who is entitled to the Surviving Spouse’s Pension, if
also designated as the Participant’s beneficiary under a
joint and survivor annuity payable under the Supplemental Plan,
receive a total benefit from the Supplemental Plan that is more
than 100% of the retirement income otherwise payable to the
Participant under the Supplemental Plan.
2.5 Suspension of
Benefits.
(a) Date of Benefit
Suspension . Notwithstanding any provisions of Article Two or
Article Four to the contrary, the payment of the pension to which a
Participant is otherwise entitled under the Supplemental Plan (409A
Grandfathered Component) shall be suspended during any period for
which payment of a pension to which such Participant may otherwise
be entitled under the Pension Plan is (or would be) suspended under
the terms of the Pension Plan due to such Participant’s
return to Employment. The pension payable to the Participant under
the Supplemental Plan (409A Grandfathered Component) which has been
suspended shall resume on the same date as payments to the
Participant under the Pension Plan resume (or would resume if the
Participant had been entitled to such a pension, or the terms of
the Pension Plan as in effect on October 3, 2004 applied to
the payments to the Participant under the Pension Plan).
(b) Resumption of Payments .
Upon the resumption of payment of such pension hereunder to such
Participant, the resumed benefits shall be recalculated taking into
account any increases in the Participant’s Total Credited
Service, Total Offset Service, Incentive Compensation, age and so
forth. However, no actuarial or other adjustment shall be made
to

of the Pension Plan or was excluded from participation in the
window program due to his status as an officer, shall be deemed for
all purposes under the Supplemental Plan (409A Grandfathered
