WALTER INDUSTRIES, INC.

SUPPLEMENTAL PENSION PLAN

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED

AS OF

JANUARY 1, 2008

 

ARTICLE I

 

Purpose

 

Walter Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) previously established the Walter Industries, Inc. Supplemental Pension Plan (the “Plan”) to be effective as of July 31, 1989.  The Company has determined it would be in the best interests of the Participants to amend and restate the Plan effective as of January 1, 2008 to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the “Code”).  The Plan is an unfunded plan established and maintained to provide supplemental benefits for employees who substantially contribute to the success of the Company or a Related Employer.  The purpose of the Plan is to supplement the benefits of those select management or highly compensated employees whose pension benefits under the Pension Plan for Salaried Employees of Walter Industries, Inc. Subsidiaries, Divisions and Affiliates (the “Qualified Plan”) are limited by reason of the restrictions under Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 of the Code.  The Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code.
