3 PART I Item 1. Business GENERAL Raytheon Company ("Raytheon" or the "Company") is a global technology leader, with worldwide 1998 sales of more than $19.5 billion. The Company provides products and services in the areas of defense and commercial electronics, engineering and construction, and business and special mission aircraft. Raytheon has operations throughout the United States and serves customers in more than 80 countries around the world. The Company, formerly known as HE Holdings, Inc. ("HE Holdings"), is the surviving company of the December 17, 1997 merger (the "Hughes Merger") of HE Holdings, Inc. and Raytheon Company, a Delaware corporation ("Former Raytheon"). At the effective time of the Hughes Merger, the separate legal existence of Former Raytheon ceased and HE Holdings was renamed "Raytheon Company." Although, from a legal point of view, HE Holdings, Inc. is the surviving company of the Hughes Merger, the Company's business is largely conducted in the same manner as and under the senior management of Former Raytheon. Accordingly, the historical disclosures in this Form 10-K for years prior to 1998 and any year-to-year comparisons contained herein for years prior to 1998, unless otherwise specifically noted, relate to the operations of Former Raytheon, as a predecessor to the Company by merger, and not to HE Holdings, Inc. as it existed prior to the Hughes Merger. BUSINESS SEGMENTS Electronics Defense Electronics. Simultaneously with the consummation of the Hughes Merger on December 17, 1997, Raytheon announced the creation of Raytheon Systems Company ("RSC") to integrate Raytheon's defense electronics businesses. RSC represents the combination and consolidation of the legacy defense organizations--the former defense operations of Hughes Electronics Corporation ("Hughes Defense") and the defense assets of Texas Instruments, Inc. ("TI Defense"), Raytheon E-Systems and Raytheon Electronics Systems. Raytheon's defense electronics businesses are engaged in the design, manufacture and service of advanced electronic devices, equipment and systems for both government and commercial customers. In addition to defense electronics systems, Raytheon has been successful in the conversion of certain defense electronics technologies to commercial and non-defense applications such as air traffic control, environmental monitoring and communications. For public reporting purposes, certain operating segments within Electronics have been aggregated as they exhibit similar long-term financial performance characteristics and do not meet the quantitative threshold. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. During 1998 the reportable segments within Electronics included the following: Defense Systems; Sensors and Electronics Systems; Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems; and a combined group made up of Command, Control, and Communications Systems, Training and Services, and Commercial Electronics and Other.
4 During the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed a reorganization of certain business segments to better align the operations with customer needs and to eliminate management redundancy. The Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems segment, with the exception of its Aircraft Integration Systems division was merged with Command, Control, and Communications Systems to create Command, Control, Communication, and Information Systems. The Aircraft systems division was established as a separate segment called Aircraft Integration Systems. The impact of this organizational change is reflected in the descriptions below, and will be incorporated into the Company's 1999 financial statements. Defense Systems. The Defense Systems segment ("DSS") focuses on anti-ballistic missile systems; air defense; air-to-air, surface-to-air, and air-to-surface missiles; naval and maritime systems; ship self-defense systems; torpedoes; strike, interdiction and cruise missiles; and advanced munitions. DSS produces the Patriot ground-based air defense missile system, which is capable of tracking and intercepting enemy aircraft, cruise missiles, and tactical ballistic missiles. In addition to the U.S., eight nations have selected Patriot as an integral part of their air defense systems. Since the end of the Gulf War in 1991, Raytheon has received over $3 billion in international orders for Patriot equipment and services. In addition, DSS leads Raytheon's efforts as the prime contractor for the Hawk ground-launched missile, which is in service with 18 allied nations in addition to the U.S. DSS develops ground-based phased-array radars, including the X-Band Radar (XBR) and Upgrade Early Warning Radar (UEWR) for National Missile Defense, as well as the Ground-Based Radar (GBR) for the Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system, part of the U.S. Army's Theater Missile Defense Program. It also is developing next generation theater missile interceptors for the Navy Area Defense (NAD) and Navy Theater Wide (NTW) systems and the Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicle (EKV) for National Missile Defense. DSS manufactures the primary air-to-air missile for the U.S. Air Force and Navy fighter aircraft - the Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM), and is developing the AIM-9X (short-range missile). Other missiles produced by DSS include Tomahawk, TOW, Stinger, Maverick, and Standard. DSS also leads Raytheon's efforts as the prime contractor for the NATO Sea-Sparrow Surface to Air Missile System (NSSMS), DSS also produces the air- and surface-launched versions of the Sparrow missile for both the U.S. and foreign Navies. DSS also produces Phalanx and the Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM), which the U.S. and foreign Navies use as part of the ship self-defense system. DSS also develops sonars, combat control systems, minehunting equipment and torpedoes for submarines and ships in U.S. and allied fleets, in addition to designing unmanned underwater vehicles and laser sensors. DSS produces a variety of shipboard radar systems. DSS also leads Raytheon's development efforts on the U.S. Navy's next generation of surface combatant ships, the DD-21.
5 DSS strike weapons programs include the High Speed Anti-Radiation Missile (HARM), Paveway laser-guided bombs, Extended Range Guided Munitions (ERGM), XM-982, Joint Stand Off Weapon (JSOW), and Javelin. Also, Raytheon through DSS is the prime contractor for the U.S. Army's Enhanced Fiber Optic Guided Missile (EFOGM) demonstration program, which is intended to provide rapidly deployable, lethal and highly survivable technologies to the U.S. early entry forces. Sensors and Electronic Systems. The Sensors and Electronic Systems segment ("SES") specializes in radar, electronic warfare, infrared, laser, and GPS technologies. Its programs focus on land, naval, airborne and spaceborne systems used for surveillance, reconaissance, targeting, navigation, commercial and scientific applications. SES airborne radars are deployed on four operational tactical fighter aircraft operated by U.S. forces (the F-14, F-15, F/A-18, and the AV-8B) and international customers, as well as radars for the AC-130U gunship and the B-2 stealth bomber. SES is also part of a joint venture with Northrop Grumman Corporation providing the next generation airborne radar for the F-22 aircraft. The segment provides the Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) and designation system for the F-117 Stealth Fighter, the infrared subsystem for the F/A-18 targeting pod, and is developing the Advanced Targeting FLIR for the F/A-18. SES supplies integrated sensor suites for applications such as the U.S. Department of Defense's ("DoD") Global Hawk Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Reconnaissance System, which includes a synthetic aperture radar and electro-optical/infrared sensors. SES surveillance and reconnaissance systems are used on a variety of aircraft, such as the British Tornado, the U.S. Air Force U-2 and the U.S. Navy P-3 Orion. SES also provides space sensors for defense and scientific applications. SES night vision and fire control systems equip combat vehicles like the M1 Abrams tank, Bradley Fighting Vehicle and a host of light armored vehicles, ships and submarines, and aircraft. The segment also puts state of the art technology in the hands of the infantry. Its sensor and electronic systems are used for law enforcement, security, oil spill response, search and rescue and many other commercial and industrial applications. One anticipated commercial night vision application is a night driving safety option on the model year 2000 Cadillac(R) DeVille(R)(1). (1) Cadillac & DeVille are registered trademarks of General Motors Corporation. The segment's surface radar products include radars for intelligence/data collection, spacetrack, deep space surveillance, missile warning and imaging and command and control radars. Tactical radars include battlefield radars for Forward Area Air Defense Systems and hostile weapons locating radars. Command, Control, Communications and Information Systems. The Command, Control, Communications and Information Systems segment ("C3I") is involved in command, control and communication systems; air traffic control systems; tactical radios; satellite communication ground control terminals; wide area surveillance systems; advanced transportation systems; simulators and simulation systems; ground-based information processing systems; large scale information retrieval, processing and distribution systems; and global broadcast systems.
6 C3I is part of a team under contract to design, develop, integrate and test the command, control, communications and intelligence sonar, combat control and architecture subsystems for the U.S. Navy's next generation attack submarine - - the New Attack Submarine or NSSN. The segment builds military communications systems and also a family of Extended Environment (E(2)) COTS computers and workstations. An example of C3I's capabilities in the area of advanced information integration is the U.S. Navy's Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC) program. CEC provides the capability to integrate theater sensors and weapon systems ships, aircraft and land-based installations into an integrated air picture. The system has now successfully completed more than seven years of comprehensive at-sea testing, including several live fire tests, and is now facing the challenges of integration into the fleet. C3I also has capabilities in large-scale image processing and advanced signal processing. C3I lead Raytheon's role as the prime contractor for the Brazilian System for the Vigilance of the Amazon (SIVAM) program, which calls for the delivery of an integrated information network linking numerous sensors to regional and national coordination centers. Information will be used to protect the environment, improve air safety and weather forecasts, help control epidemics, manage land occupation and usage and ensure effective law enforcement and border control. C3I also designs and installs air traffic control (ATC) and weather systems at airports worldwide. One example is the FAA/DoD's Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS) program, which will modernize and upgrade approximately 370 air traffic control sites across the United States. Some of the countries Raytheon is providing ATC systems and radars for include: Australia, Canada, China, Cyprus, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Jamaica, The Netherlands, Norway, Oman, Switzerland and Taiwan. Raytheon's Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) system is being installed at 42 sites across the United States and Puerto Rico. The new Hong Kong airport is the first international installation of Raytheon's TDWR system. TDWR uses Doppler radar technology to warn air traffic controllers of sudden wind shifts, such as microbursts, which have been blamed for numerous aircraft accidents, particularly during takeoff and landing. Aircraft Integration Systems. The Aircraft Integration Systems segment ("AIS") focuses on integration of airborne surveillance and intelligence systems; aircraft modifications; and head-of-state aircraft systems. AIS specializes in the design and installation of interiors for executive and VIP/head-of-state aircraft. The segment also performs Special Operations Forces Support Activity (SOFSA) and is working on the Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) program. During 1998, Raytheon (through AIS) continued the U.S. Air Force's C-141 avionics modernization program which includes a "glass cockpit," a digital autopilot, an improved, integrated GPS navigation system, and enhanced situational awareness systems.
7 Training and Services. The Training and Services segment ("TSS") provides training services and integrated training programs; technical services; and logistics and support with operations throughout the U.S. and overseas. TSS performs complete engineering and depot-level cradle-to-grave support to Raytheon-manufactured equipment and to various military customers. Services provided include installation and test of upgrades to deployed systems; engineering design, planning, and testing; repair and refurbishment of DoD equipment; software engineering support; data management; preparation of technical manuals; training for allied forces; system and facility installations; field testing and evaluation; field engineering; and system operation and maintenance. TSS is a world leader in providing and supporting range instrumentation systems and equipment worldwide for the DoD. It also provides missile range calibration services for the U.S. Air Force, trains U.S. Army personnel in battlefield tactics and supports undersea testing and evaluation for the U.S. Navy. TSS provides operations and engineering support to the Atlantic Underwater Test and Evaluation Center, range technical support at Cape Canaveral, and facilities maintenance at several DoD facilities including the U.S. Army's missile testing range in the Kwajalein Atoll. TSS supplies professional services to a broad range of federal customers in the areas of space and earth sciences, scientific data management, transportation management, remote sensing, and computer networking. The segment also supports the U.S. government's demilitarization activities in countries of the former Soviet Union and the development and operation of Space Shuttle and Space Station simulators for NASA's Johnson Space Center. Commercial Electronics. Raytheon's commercial electronics businesses produce, among other things, marine radars and other marine electronics, transmit/receive modules for satellite communications projects, and other electronic components for a wide range of applications. Raytheon Marine supplies marine radars, depth sounders, radiotelephones, autopilots, fish finders, ECDIS and navigation aids, GPS and Loran receivers and other marine electronics under the Raytheon, Apelco and Autohelm labels in the U.S. and abroad.

8 Aircraft Raytheon Aircraft offers one of the broadest product lines in the general aviation market. Raytheon Aircraft manufactures, markets and supports piston-powered aircraft, jet props and light and medium jets for the world's commercial, regional airlines and military aircraft markets. Raytheon Aircraft's piston-powered aircraft line includes the single-engine Beech Bonanza and the twin-engine Beech Baron aircraft for business and personal flying. The segment's King Air jetprop series includes the Beech King Air C90, B200, and 350. The jet line includes the Beechjet 400A and the Hawker 800XP (Extended Performance) midsize business jet. Raytheon Aircraft is the leading producer of 19-passenger regional airliners, selling the Beech 1900D stand-up cabin aircraft to commuter airlines and corporate customers. The Raytheon Premier I business jet took its maiden flight on December 22, 1998. To date, more than 140 firm orders have been received for the Premier I. The Premier I is currently in a certification test program. In November 1996, Raytheon Aircraft announced a new super midsize business jet, the Hawker Horizon. The Horizon is currently in production leading to anticipated airplane certification and delivery in 2001. The segment supplies aircraft training systems for the military, including the T-6A trainer selected as the next-generation trainer for the U.S. Air Force and Navy under the Joint Primary Aircraft Training (JPATS) contract. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 1999. Raytheon Aircraft also produced the U.S. Air Force's T-1A trainer, the military counterpart of the Beechjet 400A light jet, a C-12 militarized version of the King Air B200 and the U-125 search-and-rescue variant of the Hawker 800. The T-1A Jayhawk contract was completed in 1997. Raytheon Aircraft also produces two missile target drones for U.S. and allied forces. Raytheon Aerospace manages approximately 1,500 aircraft at over 245 sites around the world and provides contractor logistics and training support for military and other government aircraft and missile target systems. Raytheon Aircraft Services operates a network of business aviation service operations at airports across the U.S. Raytheon Travel Air, established in 1997, sells fractional shares in aircraft and provides aircraft management and transportation services for the owners of the shares. The Travel Air program includes the Hawker 800XP, Beechjet 400A and the King Air 200. Engineering and Construction Raytheon Engineers and Constructors ("RE&C") is one of the largest engineering, construction, operations and maintenance firms serving markets throughout the world. Its markets include: fossil and nuclear power; process automation consulting services; petroleum and gas; polymers and chemicals; food and consumer products; environmental services, including chemical munitions destruction; infrastructure and transportation.
9 RE&C undertakes some engineering and construction projects on a firm fixed price basis ("lump sum turnkey") and as a result benefits from cost savings and carries the burden of cost overruns. RE&C is focusing on optimizing its mix of ongoing services work and lump sum turnkey projects. Examples of projects in which RE&C is currently engaged include: (i) a project worth more than $700 million to build a dam and power plant on the Lower Agno River at San Roque, on the island of Luzon in the Philippines (the earth and rock fill dam will be approximately 3,600 feet long and 650 feet high, making it one of the largest embankment dams in the world); (ii) a contract to install a coal pulverization and injection system to fuel a blast furnace at a steel mill in Maryland; (iii) construction of a chemical weapons destruction facility in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, part of a $512 million contract to build and operate the plant, (iv) construction of a new satellite launch complex for The Boeing Company at Cape Canaveral Air Station, Florida, and (v) work on the $1.1 billion Hudson-Bergen light rail project in New Jersey. Financial information about Operations by Business Segments and Operations by Geographic Areas is contained in Note O to Raytheon's Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 and is incorporated herein by reference. Consolidations In January 1998, Raytheon announced plans to reduce the RSC workforce by 8,700 employees and reduce facility space by approximately 8 million square feet. In October 1998, the Company announced previously planned actions to accelerate and expand these initiatives, thereby reducing employment by a total of 12 percent by the end of 1998 and another 4 percent in 1999, for a total reduction of 16 percent, or approximately 14,000 positions by the end of 1999. RSC will also vacate an additional 2 million square feet at 8 facilities and complete all facility related actions by the end of 1999 through sales, subleases and lease termination. The principal actions involve the consolidation of missile and other electronic systems manufacturing and engineering, as well as the consolidation of certain component manufacturing, into Centers of Excellence. In January 1998, Raytheon also announced plans to reduce the RE&C workforce by 1,000 employees and close or partially close 16 offices, or approximately 1.1 million square feet. Raytheon is reassessing the structure and operations of this business, while implementing the previously announced cost reduction initiatives. In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company (i) modified the plan announced in January 1998 to close fewer facilities and (ii) announced plans for an additional 260 person reduction in the RE&C workforce. SALES TO THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT Sales to the United States Government (the "Government"), principally to the Department of Defense ("DoD"), were $12.827 billion in 1998 and $6.270 billion in 1997 representing 66.1% of total sales in 1998 and 46.1% in 1997. Approximately $6.799 billion of the increase is due to the acquisition of TI Defense and the merger with Hughes Defense. Of these sales, $1.660 billion in 1998 and $483 million in 1997 represented purchases made by the Government on behalf of foreign governments.
10 DIVESTITURES AND ACQUISITIONS Consistent with Raytheon's strategy of divesting non-core assets to focus and streamline core businesses and pay down debt, the Company divested a number of business units in 1998 as set forth below. In addition, pursuant to agreements with the U.S. government in connection with the acquisitions of Hughes Defense and TI Defense, Raytheon divested a portion of each of its Second Generation Ground-Based Electro-Optics, Focal Plane Array and Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits assets as described below. On December 31, 1998, Raytheon sold its Transportation Management Solutions business to Orbital Sciences Corporation for approximately $21 million. On December 18, 1998, Raytheon sold its Sonobuoy business to Undersea Sensor Systems, Inc., a subsidiary of Ultra Electronics, Inc., for approximately $23 million. On November 29, 1998, Raytheon sold its Raytheon Aircraft Company Montek subsidiary to Moog, Inc. for approximately $160 million. On October 21, 1998, Raytheon sold a portion of its Second Generation Ground-Based Electro-Optics assets (formerly a part of Hughes Defense), as well as a portion of its Focal Place Array assets (formerly part of TI Defense), to DRS Technologies, Inc. for approximately $45 million. On September 17, 1998, Raytheon sold its Raytheon Systems Limited Flight Training business to GE Capital for approximately $66 million. On September 9, 1998, Raytheon acquired AlliedSignal Inc.'s Communications Systems business for approximately $63 million. On August 21, 1998, Raytheon sold its E-MASS, Inc. robotic tape storage subsidiary to Advanced Digital Information Corporation for approximately $25 million. On May 18, 1998, Raytheon sold it electronic controls business (formerly part of the appliances segment) to EGO Group of Germany for approximately $36 million. On May 5, 1998, Raytheon sold its Commercial Laundry business to a company organized by Bain Capital, Inc. and Raytheon Commercial Laundry management for approximately $334 million. On March 31, 1998, Raytheon sold its Seiscor subsidiary to Pulse Communications, Inc. for approximately $13 million. On January 13, 1998, Raytheon sold the Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMIC) operations of former TI Defense to TriQuint Semiconductor Inc. for approximately $39 million.
11 GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS The Company and various subsidiaries act as a prime contractor or major subcontractor for many different Government programs including those that involve the development and production of new or improved weapons or other types of electronics systems or major components of such systems. Over its lifetime, a program may be implemented by the award of many different individual contracts and subcontracts. The funding of Government programs is subject to congressional appropriations. Although multi-year contracts may be authorized in connection with major procurements, Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though a program may continue for many years. Consequently, programs are often only partially funded initially and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. The Government is required to adjust equitably a contract price for additions or reductions in scope or other changes ordered by it. Generally, Government contracts are subject to oversight audits by Government representatives and provisions permitting termination, in whole or in part, without prior notice at the Government's convenience upon the payment of compensation only for work done and commitments made at the time of termination. In the event of termination, the contractor will receive some allowance for profit on the work performed. The right to terminate for convenience has not had any significant effect upon Raytheon's business in light of its total Government business. The Company's Government business is performed under both cost reimbursement and fixed price prime contracts and subcontracts. Cost reimbursement contracts provide for the reimbursement of allowable costs plus the payment of a fee. These contracts fall into three basic types: (i) cost plus fixed fee contracts which provide for the payment of a fixed fee irrespective of the final cost of performance; (ii) cost plus incentive fee contracts which provide for increases or decreases in the fee, within specified limits, based upon actual results as compared to contractual targets relating to such factors as cost, performance and delivery schedule; and (iii) cost plus award fee contracts which provide for the payment of an award fee determined in the discretion of the customer based upon the performance of the contractor against pre-established criteria. Under cost reimbursement type contracts, Raytheon is reimbursed periodically for allowable costs and is paid a portion of the fee based on contract progress. Some costs incident to performing contracts have been made partially or wholly unallowable by statute or regulation. Examples are charitable contributions, travel costs in excess of government rates and certain litigation defense costs. The Company's fixed price contracts are either firm fixed price contracts or fixed price incentive contracts. Under firm fixed price contracts, Raytheon agrees to perform the contract for a fixed price and as a result benefits from cost savings and carries the burden of cost overruns. Under fixed price incentive contracts, Raytheon shares with the Government savings accrued from contracts performed for less than target costs and costs incurred in excess of targets up to a negotiated ceiling price (which is higher than the target cost) and carries the entire burden of costs exceeding the negotiated ceiling price. Under such incentive contracts, the Company's profit may also be adjusted up or down depending upon whether specified performance objectives are met. Under firm fixed price and fixed price incentive type contracts, the Company usually receives progress payments monthly from the Government generally in amounts equaling 75% and 80% of costs incurred under (i) DoD contracts and (ii) all other Government contracts, respectively. The remaining amount, including profits or incentive fees, is billed upon delivery and final acceptance of end items under the contract.
12 The Company's Government business is subject to specific procurement regulations and a variety of socio-economic and other requirements. Failure to comply with such regulations and requirements could lead to suspension or debarment, for cause, from Government contracting or subcontracting for a period of time. Among the causes for debarment are violations of various statutes, including those related to procurement integrity, export control, government security regulations, employment practices, the protection of the environment, the accuracy of records and the recording of costs. Under many Government contracts, the Company is required to maintain facility and personnel security clearances complying with DoD requirements. Companies which are engaged in supplying defense-related equipment to the Government are subject to certain business risks some of which are peculiar to that industry. Among these are: the cost of obtaining trained and skilled employees; the uncertainty and instability of prices for raw materials and supplies; the problems associated with advanced designs, which may result in unforeseen technological difficulties and cost overruns; and the intense competition and the constant necessity for improvement in facilities and personnel training. Sales to the Government may be affected by changes in procurement policies, budget considerations, changing concepts of national defense, political developments abroad and other factors. As a result of the 1985 Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Reduction Control Act, the federal deficit and changing world order conditions, DoD budgets have been subject to increasing pressure resulting in an uncertainty as to the future effects of DoD budget cuts. Raytheon has, nonetheless, maintained a solid foundation of tactical defense systems which meets the needs of the United States and its allies, while serving a broad government program base and wide range of commercial electronics businesses. These factors lead management to believe that there is high probability of continuation of Raytheon's current major tactical defense programs. See "Item 1. Business -- Sales to the United States Government" for information regarding the percentage of the Company's revenues generated from sales to the Government. BACKLOG The Company's backlog of orders at December 31, 1998 was $24.045 billion compared with $21.515 billion at the end of 1997. The 1998 amount includes funded backlog of $14.622 billion from the Government compared with $12.547 billion at the end of 1997. During the third quarter of 1998, Raytheon changed its method of reporting backlog at certain locations in order to provide a consistent method of reporting across and within Raytheon businesses. The company includes the full value of contract awards when received, excluding awards and options expected in future periods. Prior to the change, contract values, which were awarded, but incrementally funded, were excluded from reported backlog for some parts of the business. The one-time impact of this change was a $1.1 billion increase to Electronics backlog and a $0.9 billion increase to Engineering and Construction backlog, related principally to U.S. government contracts. Prior periods have not been restated for this change.
13 Approximately $3.817 billion of the overall backlog figure represents the unperformed portion of direct orders from foreign governments. Approximately $2.556 billion of the overall backlog represents non-government foreign backlog. Backlog in the Engineering and Construction segment was $3.888 billion at the end of 1998 compared with $2.900 billion at the end of 1997. Design and construction contracts in this segment typically take from eighteen months to several years to perform. Aircraft segment backlog was $2.509 billion at the end of 1998 versus $1.974 billion at the end of 1997. The increase was primarily due to the receipt of orders for general aviation aircraft including Horizon, Premier I and Hawker 800XP. Approximately $9.569 billion of the $24.045 billion 1998 year-end backlog is not expected to be filled during the following twelve months. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT During 1998, Raytheon derived net sales of $4.372 billion ($2.115 billion in 1997 and $1.496 billion in 1996) pursuant to Government contracts for research and development. In addition, during 1998 Raytheon expended $582.1 million on research and development efforts compared with $415.1 million in 1997 and $323.3 million in 1996. These expenditures principally have been for product development for the Government and for aircraft products. SUPPLIERS Delivery of raw materials and supplies to Raytheon is generally satisfactory. Raytheon is sometimes dependent, for a variety of reasons, upon sole-source suppliers for procurement requirements. However, Raytheon has experienced no significant difficulties in meeting production and delivery obligations because of delays in delivery or reliance on such suppliers. See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on pages 28 through 32 of the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1998 for information regarding the "Year 2000" issue as it relates to the Company and the Company's suppliers. COMPETITION The military and commercial industries in which Raytheon operates are highly competitive. Raytheon's competitors range from highly resourceful small concerns, which engineer and produce specialized items, to large, diversified firms. The Electronics businesses are a direct participant in most major areas of development in the defense, space, information gathering, data reduction and automation fields. Technical superiority and reputation, price, delivery schedules, financing and reliability are among the principal competitive factors considered by electronics customers. The ongoing consolidation of the U.S. and global defense, space and aerospace industries continues to intensify competition. Consolidation among U.S. defense, space and aerospace companies has resulted in three principal prime contractors for the DoD, including the Company. As a result of this consolidation, the Company frequently partners on various programs with its major suppliers, some of whom are, from time to time, competitors on other programs.
14 Competition in the Engineering and Construction segment comes from a number of domestic and foreign firms, competing for major business opportunities worldwide. In addition to numerous small and specialty firms, there are nine large competitors to the Company in this industry. Competition is based primarily upon performance, technical skills, experience, reliability, financing, and price. The ability to recruit and maintain highly skilled and experienced professionals has a critical impact on the Company's competitiveness in this industry. The industry's intense competition, particularly on contracts that are competitively bid, can negatively impact price and margins. The Company believes that the diversity of our customer base is a competitive strength. The Aircraft segment competes primarily with four other companies in the business aviation industry. The principal factors for competition in the industry are price, financing, operating costs, product liability, cabin size and comfort, product quality, travel range and speed, and product support. The Company believes we possess competitive advantages in the breadth of our product line, the performance of our product line, and the strength of our product support. PATENTS AND LICENSES Raytheon has long been an innovative leader in the development of new products and manufacturing technologies. Raytheon and its subsidiaries own a large number of United States and foreign patents and patent applications as well as trademark, copyright and semiconductor chip mask work registrations which are necessary and contribute significantly to the preservation of the Company's strong competitive position in the market. In certain instances, Raytheon has augmented its technology base by licensing the proprietary intellectual property of others. Raytheon's patent position and intellectual property portfolio is deemed adequate for the conduct of its businesses. It is Raytheon's policy to enforce its own intellectual property rights and to respect the rights of others. Incidental to the normal course of business, infringement claims may arise or may be threatened both by and against Raytheon. In the opinion of management, these claims will not have a material adverse affect on the Company's operations. Although these patents and licenses are, in the aggregate, important to the operation of the Company's business, no existing patent, license or similar intellectual property right is of such importance that its loss or termination would, in the opinion of management, have a material effect on the Company's business. EMPLOYMENT As of December 31, 1998, Raytheon had approximately 108,200 employees compared with approximately 119,200 employees at the end of 1997. The decrease is mainly due to layoffs within Raytheon Systems Company and RE&C, divestitures of Seiscor, BSG/Remco, Commercial Laundry and Raytheon Aircraft Company Montek, offset by the acquisition of the Communications Division of Allied Signal, Inc. See "Part I, Divestitures and Acquisitions." Subsidiaries of Raytheon Engineers & Constructors International, Inc. and certain other subsidiaries have craft employees engaged for individual projects not included in Raytheon's employee count. Raytheon considers its union-management relationships to be satisfactory. Raytheon has, for the most part, successfully negotiated labor agreements without significant work stoppages, with the exception of a nine week strike that occurred during the summer of 1996 at the Cedar Rapids, Inc. facility located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Raytheon currently has collective bargaining relationships with 13 different labor organizations involving 39 separate labor agreements.
15 INTERNATIONAL SALES Of total sales, Raytheon's sales to customers outside the United States (including foreign military sales) were 26%, 29% and 28% in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. These sales were principally in the fields of air defense systems, air traffic control systems, sonar systems, aircraft products, petrochemical, power and industrial plant design and construction, electronic equipment, computer software and systems, personnel training, equipment maintenance and microwave communication. Although international sales as a percentage of Raytheon's total sales decreased slightly from 1997 to 1998 (primarily due to the merger of Hughes Defense and acquisition of TI Defense), it is anticipated that, consistent with the Company's goals, such percentage of international sales will increase. Foreign subsidiary working capital requirements generally are financed in the countries concerned. Sales and income from international operations are subject to changes in currency values, domestic and foreign government policies (including requirements to expend a portion of program funds in-country) and regulations, embargoes and international hostilities. Exchange restrictions imposed by various countries could restrict the transfer of funds between countries and between Raytheon and its subsidiaries. Raytheon generally has been able to protect itself against most undue risks through insurance, foreign exchange contracts, contract provisions, government guarantees or progress payments. Raytheon utilizes the services of sales representatives and distributors in connection with foreign sales. Normally representatives are paid commissions and distributors are granted resale discounts in return for services rendered. Licenses are required from Government agencies under the Export Administration Act, the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917 and the Arms Export Control Act of 1976 (formerly the Foreign Military Sales Act) for export from the United States of many of Raytheon's products. In the case of certain sales of defense equipment and services to foreign governments, the Government's Executive Branch must notify Congress at least 15 to 30 days (depending on the location of the sale) prior to authorizing such sales. During that time, Congress may take action to block the proposed sale.

Consolidation and Reorganization of Raytheon Systems Company. The Company continues its consolidation and reorganization of Raytheon Systems Company. However, the Company may encounter difficulties or may not realize the full benefits expected from such integration. The success of Raytheon Systems Company will require, among other things, the continued execution of the consolidation and reorganization planned. The challenges include the integration of numerous geographically separated manufacturing facilities and research and development centers. The success of this plan will be significantly influenced by the Company's ability to retain key employees, to integrate differing management structures and to realize anticipated cost synergies, all of which will require significant management time and resources. Any material delays or unexpected costs incurred in connection with such integration could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results or financial condition and there can be no assurance that additional restructuring actions will not be required. Contract Accounting. Contract accounting requires the use of estimates in determining progress toward completion in order to record revenue and profit in the current period. This process includes the ongoing evaluation of risks and uncertainties inherent in the performance of contracts. Since many contracts extend over a long period of time, revisions in estimates may have the effect of adjusting earnings in the current period that are applicable to performance in prior periods. Year 2000 Data Conversion. While the Company expects to resolve all Year 2000 risks without material adverse impact on results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include (i) the Company's ability to detect all Year 2000 problems, (ii) the Company's ability to achieve successful and timely resolution of all Year 2000 issues, and (iii) the preparedness of the Company's critical suppliers to avoid Year 2000 related service and delivery interruptions. See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on pages 28 through 32 of the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1998 for information regarding the Company's efforts with respect to Year 2000 issues and status thereof. Item 2. Properties The Company and its subsidiaries operate in a number of plants, laboratories, warehouses and office facilities in the United States and abroad. At December 31, 1998, the Company utilized approximately 53 million square feet of floor space for manufacturing, engineering, research, administration, sales and warehousing, approximately 95% of which was located in the United States. Of such total, approximately 40% was owned, approximately 55% was leased, and approximately 5% was made available under facilities contracts for use in the performance of United States Government contracts. At December 31, 1998 the Company had approximately 3.3 million square feet of additional floor space that was not in use, including approximately 2 million square feet in Company-owned facilities.
18 There are no major encumbrances on any of the Company's plants or equipment other than financing arrangements which in the aggregate are not material. In the opinion of management, the Company's properties have been well maintained, are in sound operating condition and contain all equipment and facilities necessary to operate at present levels. A summary of the utilized floor space at December 31, 1998, by business segment, follows: (in square feet with 000's omitted) Leased Owned Gov't Owned Total Total Electronics 23,332 17,079 2,541 42,952 Engineering & Construction 2,260 80 0 2,340 Aircraft 3,249 3,727 0 6,976 Corporate (includes international sales offices) 619 258 0 877 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 29,460 21,144 2,541 53,145 See "Part I, Item 3 -- Legal Proceedings," and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on pages 28 through 32 of the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1998 for information regarding the effect of compliance with environmental protection requirements and the resolution of environmental claims against the Company and its operations. Item 3. Legal Proceedings Prior to the Hughes Merger, the business of Hughes Defense was conducted by Hughes Aircraft Company ("HAC"), an indirect subsidiary of Hughes Electronics Corporation. Since 1985, several actions seeking compensatory and punitive damages in unspecified amounts have been filed against HAC by plaintiffs alleging that they suffered injuries as a result of the migration of alleged toxic substances into the Tucson, Arizona, water supply. These substances were disposed of at a facility owned by the United States Government which HAC operated and Raytheon now leases under a contract with the U.S. Air Force. In 1991, HAC settled with the approximately 2,000 plaintiffs in one of these cases, Valenzuela v. Hughes Aircraft Company. HAC's primary and excess insurance carriers made substantial contributions toward this settlement. Several of these carriers are seeking reimbursement of the amounts they paid. If the insurers prevail in the insurance coverage litigation, the Company may ultimately bear responsibility for a portion of the Valenzuela settlement. Several other actions arising out of migration of alleged toxic substances into the Tucson water supply are still pending, including:
19 1. Cordova v. Hughes Aircraft Company, et al., which was filed on January 13, 1992, with the Arizona Superior Court, Pima County by an estimated 90,000 member class against HAC, McDonnell Douglas Corporation, General Dynamics Corporation and the Tucson Airport Authority as co-defendants. The court denied class certification in 1996. Settlement was reached with all but 3 claimants in 1998. Such remaining claims were dismissed, the dismissal of which are now on appeal. 2. Yslava v. Hughes Aircraft Company, an action filed on August 7, 1992, in U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona by approximately 250 individual plaintiffs, alleging injury claims (inclusive of loss of consortium claims). HAC filed third party claims against McDonnell Douglas Corporation, General Dynamics Corporation, the Tucson Airport Authority and the City of Tucson. 3. Lanier v. Hughes Aircraft Company, et al., a class action filed on September 30, 1991, in U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona seeking medical monitoring for an estimated class of 50,000 residents from the south side of Tucson. The Company is vigorously defending these actions, and believes both that it has strong defenses to the claims asserted against it and that it has claims for contribution against other entities. In addition, the Company has obtained state and federal court decisions requiring its insurers to pay defense costs in these actions. Although the Company believes that it has good bases for seeking indemnity coverage from its carriers, it cannot reasonably estimate what, if any, coverage may, in fact, be available. The Company is also involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup relative to remediation of various other sites. All appropriate costs incurred in connection therewith have been accrued. Due to the complexity of environmental laws and regulations, the varying costs and effectiveness of alternative cleanup methods and technologies, the uncertainty of insurance coverage and the unresolved extent of the Company's responsibility, it is difficult to determine the ultimate outcome of these matters. However, in the opinion of management, any liability will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations after giving effect to provisions already recorded. Accidents involving personal injuries and property damage occur in general aviation travel. When permitted by appropriate government agencies, Raytheon Aircraft investigates accidents related to its products involving fatalities or serious injuries. Through a relationship with FlightSafety International, Raytheon Aircraft provides initial and recurrent pilot and maintenance training services to reduce the frequency of accidents involving its products. Raytheon Aircraft is a defendant in a number of product liability lawsuits which allege personal injury and property damage and seek substantial recoveries including, in some cases, punitive and exemplary damages. Raytheon Aircraft maintains partial insurance coverage against such claims and maintains a level of uninsured risk determined by management to be prudent. (See Note L to Raytheon's Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996.)
20 The insurance policies for product liability coverage held by Raytheon Aircraft do not exclude punitive damages, and it is the position of Raytheon Aircraft and its counsel that punitive damage claims are therefore covered. Historically, the defense of punitive damage claims has been undertaken and paid by insurance carriers. Under the law of some states, however, insurers are not required to respond to judgments for punitive damages. Nevertheless, to date no judgments for punitive damages have been sustained. Defense contractors are subject to many levels of audit and investigation. Agencies which oversee contract performance include: the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Department of Defense Inspector General, the General Accounting Office, the Department of Justice and Congressional Committees. The Department of Justice from time to time has convened grand juries to investigate possible irregularities by the Company in governmental contracting. Various claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or threatened against the Company. While the Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of management, any liability arising from them will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations after giving effect to provisions already recorded.

Each such notice of a proposed purchase shall specify the date of purchase (which shall be the Closing Date or the Settlement Date next succeeding such Reporting Date), the aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of the Purchased Receivables prior to such proposed purchase (after giving effect to the application of Collections on the related Settlement Date), the Principal Balance and the Purchase Price for

Upon receipt of any such notice from the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent shall promptly notify each Purchaser thereof. Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each such Settlement Date on which a purchase has been requested to be made, each Purchaser shall make available to the Managing Facility Agent, in immediately available funds at the Managing Facility Agent's office specified in subsection 11.2, the amount of such Purchaser's pro rata share of such aggregate Purchase Price for all Receivables being purchased on such Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of such purchase will then be made available (or deemed made available if subsection 2.15 is applicable) to the Seller by the Managing Facility Agent crediting the account of the Seller on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Managing Facility Agent by the Purchasers and in like funds as received by the Managing Facility Agent. 2.3 Special Settlement Dates. On each Special Settlement Date, the Seller will be permitted to sell Eligible Receivables to the Purchasers.

(a) In the event that on any Settlement Date the aggregate Available Commitments are less than the aggregate Purchase Price of Eligible Receivables the Seller proposes to sell on such Settlement Date, and so long as no Rating Event has occurred and is continuing, the Purchasers agree, subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement, to purchase an interest in each such Receivable, the Purchase Price of which would otherwise exceed the amount of the Available Commitments, up to the aggregate Available Commitments then in effect. The Purchase Price for each such Receivable shall be deemed to be the Principal Balance able to be purchased under the Available Commitments;
44 provided that the Available Commitments shall first be applied to purchase Receivables other than Participated Receivables to the fullest extent available and next to purchase Participated Receivables. The portion of each such Receivable not available to be purchased by the Purchasers shall be an interest of the Seller in such Receivable and shall represent the Seller's Interest in such Participated Receivable. The Seller's Interest in each Participated Receivable shall be subordinated and junior to the rights of the Purchasers in accordance with the terms and conditions of subsection 2.4(b). The portion of any Participated Receivable representing the Seller's Interest therein shall be, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, available as a Receivable for purchase by the Purchasers on subsequent Settlement Dates. (b) The Seller's Interest in and to each Participated Receivable shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment and all other rights to the rights of the Purchasers with respect to such Participated Receivable, including, but not limited to, the rights of the Purchasers to receive all Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections on such Participated Receivable. Such subordination shall be in effect until the Principal Balance purchased by the Purchasers of the Participated Receivable, after application of Principal Collections received on account of such Participated Receivable, has been reduced to zero and, accordingly, the Seller shall not (except as provided in subsection 2.16(b)) be entitled to receive any amounts with respect to a Participated Receivable on account of the Seller's Interest therein until such time. If the Seller receives any payment on account of the Seller's Interest in any Participated Receivable prior to the time at which it is entitled to retain such payment pursuant to this subsection 2.4(b), the Seller shall hold such payment in trust for the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers and shall immediately deposit such payment into the Concentration Account. 2.5 Extended Term Receivables.

The portion of each such Receivable not available to be purchased by the Purchasers shall be an interest of the Seller in such Receivable and shall represent the Seller's Interest in such Extended Term Receivable. The Seller's Interest in each Extended Term Receivable shall be subordinated and junior to the rights of the Purchasers in accordance with the terms and conditions of subsection 2.5(b). The portion of the actual unpaid principal balance of any Extended Term Receivable representing the Seller's Interest therein shall be, subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, that principal payments scheduled to be made after the applicable Cash Flow Cutoff Date at any date of determination are not available for purchase under this Agreement), available for purchase by the Purchasers on subsequent Settlement Dates.
45 (b) The Seller's Interest in and to each Extended Term Receivable shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment and all other rights to the rights of the Purchasers with respect to such Extended Term Receivable, including, but not limited to, the rights of the Purchasers to receive all Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections on such Extended Term Receivable. Such subordination shall be in effect until the Principal Balance purchased by the Purchasers of the Extended Term Receivable, after application of Principal Collections received on account of such Extended Term Receivable, has been reduced to zero and, accordingly, the Seller shall not be entitled to receive any amounts with respect to a Extended Term Receivable on account of the Seller's Interest therein until such time. If the Seller receives any payment on account of the Seller's Interest in any Extended Term Receivable prior to the time at which it is entitled to retain such payment pursuant to this subsection 2.5(b), the Seller shall hold such payment in trust for the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers and shall immediately deposit such payment into the Concentration Account. 2.6 Certain Actions Following a Rating Event and a Discount Event. (a) If a Rating Event shall occur, then no later than the 10th Business Day following such occurrence (provided such Rating Event shall then be continuing) the Seller shall deposit cash into the Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the Repurchase Percentage times the aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price (as of the Settlement Date preceding such date of deposit). As long as any Rating Event continues, any amounts deposited in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied from time to time in accordance with subsection 2.14(c). If such Rating Event shall cease to continue, the Managing Facility Agent shall, upon written request of the Seller, withdraw amounts so deposited in the Cash Collateral Account and deliver such amounts to the Seller (or upon its order). (b) On each Settlement Date after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Discount Event or Rating Event, each purchase of Eligible Receivables in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in this Agreement shall be at a discount as specified in the proviso contained in the definition of "Purchase Price" and the portion of such Receivable's Principal Balance equal to the sum of the reductions and discounts required pursuant to such proviso clause shall be an interest of the Seller in such Receivable and shall constitute the Seller's Interest. The Seller's Interest in each Purchased Receivable created pursuant to this clause (b) shall be subordinated and junior to the rights of the Purchasers in accordance with the terms and conditions of subsection 2.6(c). If a Rating Event or Discount Event is no longer continuing, the portion of any Receivable representing the Seller's Interest created therein pursuant to this clause (b) shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be deemed to be available as a Receivable for purchase by the Purchasers on subsequent Settlement Dates. (c) The Seller's Interest in and to each Purchased Receivable a portion of which is an interest of the Seller pursuant to subsection 2.6(b) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment and all other rights to the rights of the Purchasers with respect to the Purchased Receivables, including, but not limited to, the rights of the Purchasers to receive all Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections on the Purchased Receivables until the Outstanding Purchase Price has been reduced to zero and all other amounts owing to the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser under any Purchase Document have been paid in full and, accordingly, the Seller shall not (except as provided in subsection 2.16(b)) be entitled to receive any amounts on account of the Seller's Interest in such Purchased Receivables until the Outstanding Purchase Price has been reduced to zero and all other amounts owing to the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser under any Purchase Document have been paid in full.

(b)(i) Any Purchaser not wishing to extend the Revolving Period (a "Dissenting Purchaser") may in its sole discretion elect to terminate its Commitment on the Expiration Date in effect prior to any such extension of the Revolving Period. The Dissenting Purchaser shall give the Managing Facility Agent notice of such election at least 30 days prior to the applicable Expiration Date, provided that failure to expressly notify the Managing Facility Agent of a willingness to extend the Expiration Date in accordance with subsection 2.8(a) shall be deemed an election by such Purchaser to terminate its Commitment on the Expiration Date. Upon receipt of any notice the Managing Facility Agent shall promptly notify each other Purchaser and the Seller thereof. The Seller, by notice to the Managing Facility Agent, may (but shall not be required to) request one or more other Purchasers, or seek another financial institution acceptable to the Managing Facility Agent and the Seller, in their reasonable discretion, to acquire the Commitment of the Dissenting Purchaser and all amounts payable to it hereunder in accordance with subsection 11.6(c). Unless otherwise specified in connection with a transfer made pursuant to subsection 11.6(c), a Purchaser shall become a Dissenting Purchaser pursuant to this subsection 2.8(b) on the first day following the Expiration Date on which its Commitment is terminated. (ii) If any Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment is not acquired pursuant to subsection 11.6(c), such Dissenting Purchaser shall, on each Settlement Date after the Expiration Date on which its Commitment terminates, (A) be paid such Dissenting Purchaser's pro rata share of Principal Collections received after such Expiration Date solely (except as provided in subsection 2.13(c)) on account of Eligible Receivables purchased or substituted on or before such Expiration Date (based on such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment Percentage at the time its Commitment terminated) (as to such Dissenting Purchaser, its "Frozen Pool"), (B) not purchase any additional Receivables after such Expiration Date and (C) be paid interest in accordance with subsection 2.17 in respect of its Outstanding Purchase Price.
50 (iii) So long as the Revolving Period has not expired or terminated, if on any Settlement Date after a Purchaser becomes a Dissenting Purchaser its Outstanding Purchase Price is less than 10% (after giving effect to the application of Collections on such Settlement Date) of such Dissenting Purchaser's maximum Outstanding Purchase Price at any time prior to the date such Purchaser became a Dissenting Purchaser, then the Seller may give the Managing Facility Agent irrevocable notice, which must be received by the Managing Facility Agent by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Reporting Date prior to the next succeeding Settlement Date, (A) requesting that each other Purchaser purchase a pro rata share (based on such other Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage as in effect on such next succeeding Settlement Date) of such Dissenting Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price (the "Buyout Amount") subject to the approval of the Managing Facility Agent and the Majority Purchasers or (B) stating that the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller will repurchase all the Dissenting Purchaser's interests in and to the Receivables in the Frozen Pool by payment of the Buyout Amount on such next succeeding Settlement Date; provided that no such purchase by the Purchasers shall be made if the Buyout Amount to be paid by such Purchasers exceeds the aggregate Available Commitments in effect on such next succeeding Settlement Date (after giving effect to purchases from the Seller on such date). Any such purchase of the Buyout Amount by the Purchasers shall be subject to, and shall be made upon satisfaction of, the conditions set forth in subsection 5.2 and, in connection therewith, the Seller shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties set forth in subsection 4.2 with respect to the Receivables constituting the Frozen Pool as if such Receivables were being sold to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date. Payment for the purchase by the Purchasers or the repurchase by the Seller of the Frozen Pool, as the case may be, shall be made to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of such Dissenting Purchaser on such Settlement Date by deposit into the Concentration Account on the Settlement Date required by this subsection 2.8(b)(iii). 2.9 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) On any Settlement Date, the Seller shall have the right to terminate the Commitments or reduce the amount thereof by notice to the Managing Facility Agent on the preceding Reporting Date; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any distributions on account of the Outstanding Purchase Price made on such Settlement Date, the then Outstanding Purchase Price (exclusive of the interests of Dissenting Purchasers) would exceed the Commitments then in effect. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $50,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall permanently reduce the Commitments then in effect. (b) Each Purchaser's Commitment shall terminate upon the expiration of the Revolving Period as to such Purchaser. 2.10 Defaulted Receivables; Application of Lease Security Deposits. () (i) On each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) the Seller agrees to repurchase from the Purchasers, up to the Repurchase Obligation, all Receivables which became Defaulted Receivables during each preceding Settlement Period with respect to which the Seller has not substituted an Eligible Receivable pursuant to subsection 2.13, as indicated on the Settlement Statement
51 delivered on the related Reporting Date. Subject to subsections 2.10(b), 2.13, 2.15(b) and clause sixth of subsection 2.16(b), the Seller shall repurchase such Defaulted Receivables by depositing into the Concentration Account on such Settlement Date cash in an amount equal to the aggregate Outstanding Balances of the Defaulted Receivables plus, if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the rate under the related Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. If on any Settlement Date the Repurchase Price to be paid by the Seller for any Defaulted Receivable would cause the Repurchase Obligation then in effect (determined on such Settlement Date) to be exceeded, the Seller shall be deemed to acquire only a fractional interest in each Defaulted Receivable repurchased on such Settlement Date. The numerator of such fraction shall be the Repurchase Obligation then in effect determined on such Settlement Date and the denominator thereof shall be the aggregate Repurchase Price for all Defaulted Receivables on such Settlement Date. Upon any repurchase of a Defaulted Receivable pursuant to this subsection or the Repurchase Agreement after a Discount Event or Rating Event, the Seller's Interest shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Purchase Discount, if any, with respect to such Defaulted Receivable times the Principal Balance thereof on the last day of the Settlement Period preceding the Settlement Date on which such repurchase is made. Any Purchased Receivable related to a Remarketed Aircraft which is repurchased or substituted for in accordance with subsection 2.11 or 2.13, respectively, shall not be deemed to be a Defaulted Receivable. (ii) In the event that a Rating Event occurs and is continuing, any Net Recoveries received by the Seller (A) on account of any Defaulted Receivable repurchased by it, RAC or the Guarantor or (B) on account of any Defaulted Receivable which neither the Seller, RAC nor the Guarantor has repurchased, shall be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account. In the event that the Amortization Period ends pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of such term, any Net Recoveries received by the Seller after such time (A) on account of a Defaulted Receivable repurchased by it, RAC or the Guarantor or (B) on account of any Defaulted Receivable which none of the Seller, RAC nor the Guarantor has repurchased shall be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account. The Seller shall make any deposit required to be made by this subsection 2.10(a)(ii) within two Business Days after the Seller's receipt of such Net Recoveries and such deposits shall be applied in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. The obligation of the Seller to deposit such Net Recoveries shall survive the termination of this Agreement. (iii) The Seller agrees that, to the extent it has received a security deposit in respect of any Lease Receivable, at the time the Seller applies any or all of such security deposit or any or all of such security deposit is applied (in each case pursuant to the related Contract or otherwise) against the amounts owed in respect of a Receivable, on the next succeeding Settlement Date the Seller shall be obligated to pay the Purchasers the amount of such application. The Seller shall pay such obligation by depositing into the Concentration Account on such Settlement Date cash in an amount equal to such application. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16.
52 (b) The maximum repurchase obligation of the Seller with respect to Defaulted Receivables (the "Repurchase Obligation") shall be equal at any time to (i) the Repurchase Factor in effect on the Settlement Date on which such repurchase is to be made minus (ii) the aggregate Repurchase Prices of Defaulted Receivables which were repurchased by the Seller pursuant to subsection 2.10(a) prior to such time minus (iii) amounts deposited into the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to subsection 2.14(c)(ii) plus (iv) all Net Recoveries received by the Seller with respect to such Defaulted Receivables (or portion thereof) so repurchased by the Seller prior to such time and not required to be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to subsection 2.10(a)(ii). 2.11 Ineligible Receivables. The Seller agrees to repurchase on each Settlement Date, and the Purchasers agree to sell to the Seller on such date and in accordance with the terms hereof, any Purchased Receivable if such Receivable is (i) an Ineligible Receivable, (ii) an Existing Certified Receivable in respect of which the Old Administrative Agent shall not have received on or prior to the Certified Opinion Delivery Date (x) an opinion of foreign counsel satisfying the requirements of subsection 2.27(c) or (y) evidence of the filings, if any, referred to in subsection 6.1(n)(i) or (iii) an Existing Receivable in respect of which the Old Administrative Agent shall not have received on or prior to the FAA Filing Date evidence of the filings, if any, referred to in subsection 6.1(n)(ii) provided that, during the Amortization Period, the Purchasers, by unanimous consent, in their sole discretion may choose not to sell any Receivable referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) to the Seller. The Seller shall make such repurchase on the Settlement Date first succeeding the earlier of (x) the date on which the Seller becomes aware of facts and circumstances giving rise to such event of ineligibility or (y) the date on which the Managing Facility Agent notifies the Seller that such event of ineligibility has occurred and is continuing. Subject to subsections 2.13 and 2.15(b), the Seller shall make such repurchase by depositing in the Concentration Account cash in an amount equal to the Repurchase Price for such Ineligible Receivable at the date such deposit is made, except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18, for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. Except as provided in subsection 9.1, the sole obligation of the Seller with respect to an Ineligible Receivable of the type described in clause (i) of this subsection 2.11 shall be the requirement to repurchase or substitute for such Receivable pursuant to this subsection 2.11 or subsection 2.13, respectively. 2.12 Rebated Receivables. If on any date the Principal Balance of any Purchased Receivable is, or is deemed to be, reduced or adjusted or no longer payable as a result of any rebate, discount, refund or other adjustment of such Purchased Receivable, or any other reduction or adjustment of any payment under any Purchased Receivable, other than any such rebate, discount refund or adjustment permitted under subsection 7.1(b)(iv)(x), the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection in respect of such Purchased Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment or in the amount no longer payable (as applicable) and shall, subject to subsection 2.15(b), deposit
53 cash into the Concentration Account on the next succeeding Settlement Date in an amount equal to such reduction or adjustment or such amount no longer payable (as applicable) plus if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the rate under the related Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. 2.13 Substitution of Receivables. (a) Whenever the Seller is required to repurchase Concentration Receivables, Defaulted Receivables, or Ineligible Receivables pursuant to subsection 2.7(b), 2.10 or 2.11, respectively, the Seller may, subject to the terms hereof, in lieu of making such repurchase, substitute one or more Eligible Receivables (each, a "Substituted Receivable") therefor on the Settlement Date on which the repurchase is required to be made; provided that the Settlement Statement delivered on the Reporting Date prior to such Settlement Date shall contain the information required thereby with respect to such proposed substitution. The option of the Seller to substitute one or more Substituted Receivables for any Receivables as aforesaid is subject to the following conditions precedent: (i) no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is then continuing, (ii) if such substitution occurs during the Amortization Period, and provided that no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is then continuing, the Majority Purchasers have approved such substitution and (iii) either the Substituted Receivable has a Final Payment Date which is not after the Final Payment Date of the replaced Receivable (each, replaced Receivable, a "Removed Receivable"), or if the Final Payment Date of the Substituted Receivable is after that of the Removed Receivable, then only that portion of the Principal Balance of such proposed Substituted Receivable which is scheduled to be paid on or prior to the Final Payment Date of the Removed Receivable shall be included as a Substituted Receivable. Defaulted Receivables shall be replaced with Substituted Receivables prior to replacement of Ineligible Receivables or Concentration Receivables with Substituted Receivables and, in each case, shall be replaced with Substituted Receivables in the following order of priority: (i) first, with Substituted Receivables which are 25% Repurchase Receivables, (ii) second, with Substituted Receivables which are 75% Repurchase Receivables, and (iii) third, with Substituted Receivables which are 90% Repurchase Receivables. The making of such substitution shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraphs subsection 5.2, including, without limitation, the delivery of an Assignment and, if applicable, an FAA Assignment or Foreign Assignment. (b) If the Repurchase Price of the Removed Receivable proposed to be replaced by one or more Substituted Receivables is greater than the aggregate Principal Balances of such Substituted Receivables, the Seller shall deposit cash into the Concentration Account in an amount equal to such excess. Alternatively, if the Repurchase Price of such Removed Receivable is less than the aggregate Principal Balances of the corresponding Substituted Receivable or Receivables, during the Revolving Period the Seller may, so long as no Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, request the Purchasers to purchase such excess, to the extent of the Available Commitments, pursuant to subsection 2.2. If such excess is not purchased for any reason set forth in this Agreement, then each
54 Substituted Receivable able to be substituted to the fullest extent shall first be substituted and any remaining Substituted Receivable shall be a Participated Receivable subject to the provisions of subsection 2.4. During the Revolving Period, if any Substituted Receivable is an Extended Term Receivable, then such Substituted Receivable shall be subject to subsection 2.5 and the Cash Flow Cutoff Date for such Substituted Receivable shall be deemed to be, initially, (i) so long as no Rating Event has occurred and is continuing, thirteen years after the date of substitution of such Substituted Receivable and (ii) during the continuance of a Rating Event, ten years after the date of substitution of such Substituted Receivable. Substitution for a Defaulted Receivable shall not reduce the Repurchase Obligation. (c) If a Dissenting Purchaser holds an undivided interest in any Removed Receivable then: (i) if such Removed Receivable is an Ineligible Receivable or a Concentration Receivable, the Seller shall pay to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of such Dissenting Purchaser an amount equal to the sum of (A) the product of such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment Percentage (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment terminated) times the Outstanding Balance for such Removed Receivable and (B) if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Dissenting Purchaser's pro rata share (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's commitment terminated) of accrued and unpaid interest on such Removed Receivable at the rate under the related Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract; and (ii) if such Removed Receivable is a Defaulted Receivable, (A) and if the aggregate Available Commitments in effect on the Settlement Date on which such substitution is to be made exceed an amount equal to (x) the Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment Percentage (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment terminated) times (y) the Outstanding Balance for such Removed Receivable (the "Dissenting Purchaser's Share"), each Purchaser other than a Dissenting Purchaser shall be deemed to purchase its Commitment Percentage of the Dissenting Purchaser's Share by making funds therefor available to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of such Dissenting Purchaser on the Settlement Date on which such substitution is proposed to be made; provided that such purchases shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subsection 5.2 and, in connection therewith, the Seller shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties set forth in subsection 4.2 with respect to the Purchased Receivables constituting the Dissenting Purchaser's Share as if the Seller were selling such Receivables to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date; or (B) if for any reason a purchase cannot be made pursuant to the foregoing clause (A), the Seller shall repurchase, up to the amount of the Repurchase Obligation on the date of such
55 purchase, such Dissenting Purchaser's Share on such Settlement Date up to such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment Percentage (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment terminated) of the Aggregate Repurchase Obligation in effect on such Settlement Date (in each case after giving effect to purchases, substitutions and repurchases on such Settlement Date) plus, if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Dissenting Purchaser's pro rata share (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment terminated) of accrued and unpaid interest on such Removed Receivable at the rate under the related Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. It is understood that determinations of the Repurchase Obligation with respect to a Dissenting Purchaser pursuant to this subsection 2.13(c)(ii) shall be, with respect to a L/C Receivable, made on the Settlement Date on which such determination is made in accordance with the definitions of the terms "90% Repurchase Receivable" and "25% Repurchase Receivable" and the status of such L/C Receivable at such Settlement Date. (d) Any repurchases of Receivables made pursuant to subsection 2.13(c) shall be made on the Settlement Date on which the related substitution of Receivables is to be made. (e) On any Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) the Seller may, with the consent of the Managing Facility Agent, substitute a Lease Receivable which is an Eligible Receivable (a "Substituted Lease Receivable") for a Lease Receivable (other than a Lease Receivable which is a Defaulted Receivable, a Concentration Receivable or an Ineligible Receivable) which was previously sold or substituted hereunder (a "Replaced Lease Receivable") if the Seller, in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, is entering into a new Contract with the same Person which is the Obligor under the Contract related to such Replaced Lease Receivable (or an Affiliate of such Person); provided that during the Amortization Period the prior consent of the Majority Purchasers shall be required to effect any such substitution; provided, further, that if a Remittance Event has occurred and is continuing and if the Principal Balance of a Substituted Lease Receivable is less than the Principal Balance of the Replaced Lease Receivable such substitution shall occur only on a Settlement Date and within two Business Days after such substitution is made, the Seller shall deposit into the Concentration Account an amount equal to the difference between the Outstanding Balance of the Replaced Lease Receivable and the Purchase Price of the Substituted Lease Receivable. The Settlement Statement with respect to the Settlement Period in which such substitution occurs (or the Settlement Statement delivered with respect to the Settlement Date on which such substitution occurs, in the case of substitutions made on a Settlement Date in accordance with the final proviso of the preceding sentence) shall contain the information required thereby with respect to such substitution. Upon such substitution, the Principal Balance of the Replaced Lease Receivable shall be deemed to be reduced to zero. The provisions of subsection 2.13(b) (except for the first sentence thereof) shall apply as
56 if a Replaced Lease Receivable and a Substituted Lease Receivable are, respectively, a Removed Receivable and a Substituted Receivable and the provisions of subsection 2.13(c)(i) (A) (without regard to clause (B) of subsection 2.13(c)(i)) shall apply as if a Replaced Lease Receivable is a Removed Receivable; provided that, in accordance with subsection 2.13(d) and notwithstanding the date of substitution of a Substituted Lease Receivable in accordance with this subsection 2.13(e), payments shall be made to the Dissenting Purchaser with respect to a Substituted Lease Receivable on the Settlement Date related to the Settlement Statement which contains information with respect to such substitution. The making of such substitution shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subsection 5.2, including in each case, without limitation, the delivery of an Assignment and FAA Assignment or a Foreign Assignment, as applicable, with respect to each such Substituted Lease Receivable on or before the Business Day such Substituted Lease Receivable is substituted. (f) On any Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) the Managing Facility Agent may, notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 11.1 or any other provision regarding the Purchasers' rights to consent to substitutions, without the consent of any of the Purchasers, allow the Seller to substitute an Eligible Receivable (a "Current Receivable") for an Eligible Receivable a payment under which is more than 30 days past due from the original due date therefor, but which is not otherwise a Defaulted Receivable; provided that the Settlement Statement delivered on the Reporting Date prior to such Settlement Date shall contain the information required thereby with respect to such proposed substitution. In addition to the consent of the Managing Facility Agent required by the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller's permission to substitute one or more Current Receivables for any Delinquent Receivables is subject to the following conditions precedent: (i) no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is then continuing, (ii) if such substitution occurs during the Amortization Period, and provided that no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is then continuing, the Majority Purchasers have approved such substitution and (iii) either the Current Receivable has a Final Payment Date which is not after the Final Payment Date of the replaced Delinquent Receivable or if the Final Payment Date of the Current Receivable is after that of the replaced Delinquent Receivable, then only that portion of the Principal Balance of such proposed Current Receivable which is scheduled to be paid on or prior to the Final Payment Date of the replaced Delinquent Receivable shall be included as a Purchased Receivable. If the Principal Balance of the Delinquent Receivable proposed to be replaced by one or more Current Receivables is greater than the aggregate Principal Balances of such Current Receivables, the Seller shall deposit cash into the Concentration Account in an amount equal to such excess. Alternatively, if the Principal Balance of such Delinquent Receivable is less than the aggregate Principal Balances of the corresponding Current Receivable or Receivables, during the Revolving Period the Seller may, so long as no Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, request the Purchasers to purchase such excess, to the extent of the Available Commitments, pursuant to subsection 2.2. If such excess is not purchased for any reason set forth in this Agreement, then each Current Receivable able to be substituted to the fullest extent shall first be substituted and any remaining Current Receivable shall be a Participated Receivable subject
57 to the provisions of subsection 2.4. During the Revolving Period, if any Current Receivable is an Extended Term Receivable, then such Current Receivable shall be subject to subsection 2.5 and the Cash Flow Cutoff Date for such Current Receivable shall be deemed to be, initially, (i) so long as no Rating Event has occurred and is continuing, thirteen years after the date of substitution of such Current Receivable and (ii) during the continuance of a Rating Event, ten years after the date of substitution of such Current Receivable. Substitution for a Delinquent Receivable shall not reduce the Repurchase Obligation. 2.14 Accounts. (a) On or before the Closing Date the Seller shall establish in its name a segregated account with a commercial bank satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent (the "Collection Account"). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Remittance Event, and unless the Servicer has provided a Servicer Letter of Credit in accordance with subsection 2.15(a), the Seller or the Servicer shall within two Business Days after its receipt, (i) deposit all Collections received by it directly into the Collection Account and (ii) transfer or cause to be transferred to the Concentration Account any Collections so deposited. Any amounts received by the Seller and not related to the Purchased Receivables or the related Contracts or Financed Aircraft shall not be deposited into the Collection Account. Any amounts at any time on deposit in the Collection Account shall be transferred only to the Concentration Account and to no other deposit or other account (including, but not limited to, any account or sub-account maintained pursuant to Raytheon's cash management system). The Seller hereby grants to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers a security interest in the Collection Account and all amounts from time to time on deposit therein to secure the Obligations. The Seller shall have no right to withdraw any amounts on deposit in the Collection Account. (b) On or before the Closing Date there shall be established with and in the name of the Managing Facility Agent a segregated account (the "Concentration Account") which shall be maintained as a cash collateral account subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers. The Seller hereby grants to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers a security interest in any of its right, title and interest in the Concentration Account and all amounts from time to time on deposit therein and all income from the investment of such amounts to secure, in each case, the Obligations. Funds on deposit from time to time in the Concentration Account shall bear interest at the then prevailing rate paid by the Managing Facility Agent for deposit accounts with similar amounts on deposit from time to time. If at any time funds on deposit in the Concentration Account are greater than $100,000, the Managing Facility Agent may, but shall not be required to, unless it receives a request from the Seller or Raytheon, invest such funds in Cash Equivalents with maturities not later than the next succeeding Settlement Date, to the extent such requested Cash Equivalents are available for investment. Any investment request by the Seller or Raytheon shall be given to the Managing Facility Agent one Business Day prior to the day the investment is to be made (which shall be a Business Day in New York, New York and San Francisco, California) and shall specify the particular Cash Equivalents
58 and maturities thereof. Any interest or investment earnings on amounts in the Concentration Account on related investments shall be retained in the Concentration Account to be withdrawn in accordance with this subsection 2.14(b). The Managing Facility Agent shall have the right to withdraw amounts from the Concentration Account to make the payments required to be made hereunder from Collections. Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any responsibility for any such investment and the Managing Facility Agent shall be permitted to liquidate any such investment, without liability for any loss occurring by reason of such liquidation, to the extent necessary to make payments and distributions under this Agreement. The Seller shall have no right to withdraw amounts on deposit from time to time in the Concentration Account. (c) (i) On or before the Closing Date there shall be established with and in the name of the Managing Facility Agent a segregated trust account comprised of two segregated sub-accounts, the Seller cash collateral sub-account (the "Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account") and the RAC cash collateral sub-account (the "RAC Cash Collateral Sub-Account", the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account and the RAC Cash Collateral Sub-Account being referred to collectively as the "Cash Collateral Account") which shall be maintained as a cash collateral account subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers. The Seller hereby grants to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers a first priority security interest in the Cash Collateral Account and all amounts on deposit from time to time therein and all income from the investment of such amounts to secure, in each case, the Obligations. Funds on deposit from time to time in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account shall bear interest at the then prevailing rate paid by the Managing Facility Agent for deposit accounts with similar amounts on deposit from time to time. If at any time funds on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account are greater than $100,000, the Managing Facility Agent may, but shall not be required to, unless it receives a request from the Seller, invest funds on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account in Cash Equivalents with maturities not later than the next succeeding Settlement Date (or such other maturities as the Seller shall request and the Managing Facility Agent shall approve), to the extent such requested Cash Equivalents are available for investment. Any investment request by the Seller shall be given to the Managing Facility Agent one Business Day prior to the day the investment is to be made (which shall be a Business Day in New York, New York and San Francisco, California) and shall specify the particular Cash Equivalents and maturities thereof. Any interest or investment earnings on amounts in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account or related investments shall be retained in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account to be withdrawn in accordance with paragraphs (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this subsection 2.14(c). Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any responsibility for any such investment and the Managing Facility Agent shall be permitted to liquidate any such investment, without liability for any loss occurring by reason of such liquidation, to the extent necessary to make payments and distributions under this Agreement. The Seller shall have no right to withdraw amounts on deposit from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account.
59 (ii) If on any Settlement Date on which the Seller is required to repurchase Defaulted Receivables pursuant to subsection 2.10 and fails for any reason to repurchase such Defaulted Receivables or substitute for such Defaulted Receivables pursuant to subsection 2.13, whether or not RAC fails to repurchase such Defaulted Receivables under the Repurchase Agreement, the Managing Facility Agent may withdraw from amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account on account of such Defaulted Receivable an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the Repurchase Price for such Defaulted Receivable plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon required to be paid by subsection 2.10 and (B) the amount then on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account. It is specifically understood and agreed that amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account, whether on account of 25% Repurchase Receivables, 75% Repurchase Receivables or 90% Repurchase Receivables, may be withdrawn as aforesaid on account of any Defaulted Receivable, regardless of the Repurchase Percentage associated therewith or whether the RAC Repurchase Obligation shall be outstanding. Any amounts so withdrawn shall be deposited into the Concentration Account and allocated and distributed pursuant to subsections 2.15 and 2.16, respectively. The Seller agrees with the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers to deposit into the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account, without any requirement for notice or demand therefor, the lesser of the amount withdrawn therefrom or the sum of the Repurchase Obligation then in effect on the date such withdrawal is made, plus interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate for the period from such date of withdrawal to such date of deposit. Deposit of amounts into the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account pursuant to the preceding sentence shall, to the extent of such deposit, satisfy the Seller's obligation to repurchase such Defaulted Receivable pursuant to subsection 2.10. (iii) If the Seller or the Servicer (if then Raytheon Credit or any Affiliate thereof) shall fail to make any deposit, payment or transfer of funds required to be made by the Seller or the Servicer under this Agreement or any other document executed and delivered in connection herewith, including, without limitation, any payment, deposit or transfer of funds or payment of any indemnity required to be made pursuant to subsection 2.7(b), 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 2.18 or 9.1 (each such payment, deposit or transfer, a "Reimbursable Obligation"), then the Managing Facility Agent with the consent of the Majority Purchasers may, in addition to any similar rights in favor of the Managing Facility Agent under the Repurchase Agreement, withdraw from the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account on the date such Reimbursable Obligation is due hereunder an amount equal to the lesser of (A) such Reimbursable Obligation and (B) the amount then on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account. The Seller agrees with the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers to deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account, without any requirement for notice or demand therefor, the amount withdrawn on the date such withdrawal is made, plus interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate for the period from such date of withdrawal to such date of deposit.
60 (iv) No amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account (including interest or investment earnings) shall be released to the Seller until the Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero and all other amounts owing to the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser hereunder are paid in full, provided, that, (x) on each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) occurring during the continuance of a Rating Event, after giving effect to all collections and distributions on such date, the amounts on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in excess of the Aggregate Repurchase Obligation on such Settlement Date shall be released pro rata based upon their respective repurchase obligations, to the Seller and to RAC; (y) on each Settlement Date occurring during the continuance of a Rating Event following a Settlement Period during which Finance Charges on Wholesale Receivables which are Quarterly Receivables have been paid, the excess of (A) amounts which were on previous Settlement Dates, pursuant to subsection 2.16(b)(vi), deposited into the Cash Collateral Account as accrued Finance Charge Collections on such Quarterly Receivables, over (B) any portion of such amounts so previously deposited which are on such Settlement Date withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account by the Managing Facility Agent and applied pursuant to subsection 2.14(c) shall be released to the Seller; and (z) on the Business Day after the date on which the Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero and all other amounts owing to the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers hereunder have been paid in full, all amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account shall be released to the Seller. 2.15 Remittance and Allocation of Collections. (a) The Seller or the Servicer shall, subject to subsection 2.14(a), deposit into or transfer to the Concentration Account all Collections within two Business Days following receipt thereof; provided that so long as (i) a Remittance Event has not occurred and is continuing or (ii) following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Remittance Event, the Servicer has provided a Servicer Letter of Credit, the Seller or the Servicer shall make such deposit in or transfer to the Concentration Account not later than the Settlement Date following the Settlement Period during which such Collections were received; provided, further, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Rating Event, the Seller or the Servicer shall, at the times required by and otherwise in accordance with this subsection 2.15(a), also deposit into or transfer to the Concentration Account interest payments made by RAC on behalf of an Obligor under a Wholesale Receivable. (b) On each Reporting Date the Servicer shall allocate all Collections received on account of the Purchased Receivables during the preceding Settlement Period between Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections. All Finance Charge Collections shall be deposited in the Concentration Account in accordance with subsection 2.15(a) and distributed pursuant to subsection 2.16(b). All Principal Collections shall be deposited in the Concentration Account in accordance with subsection 2.15(a) and applied in accordance with subsection 2.16(a); provided that (i) if on any Settlement Date during the Revolving Period the aggregate Purchase Price to be paid for purchases to be made on such Settlement Date exceeds amounts deposited or to be deposited into the Concentration Account by the Seller or the
61 Servicer, as the case may be, on or during the Settlement Period prior to such Settlement Date on account of Principal Collections, the Seller may retain such Principal Collections, or to the extent previously deposited into the Concentration Account shall make payments therefrom, as application for such aggregate Purchase Price to be paid to the Seller on such Settlement Date and amounts so retained by or paid to the Seller shall be treated as a payment (in whole or in part, as applicable) for such Purchase Price and (ii) to the extent the amount of such Principal Collections exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price of Eligible Receivables available to be purchased on such Settlement Date, the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall deposit, to the extent not previously deposited, such excess in the Concentration Account on or prior to such Settlement Date for distribution in accordance with subsection 2.16. Any purchases made pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (h) of subsection 5.2. During the Amortization Period, all Principal Collections shall be deposited into the Concentration Account in accordance with subsection 2.15(a) and, on the Settlement Date on or following such date of deposit, shall be distributed in accordance with subsection 2.16. The portion of any deposit to be made into the Concentration Account required to be made pursuant to subsections 2.10, 2.11 or 2.12 or the first sentence of 2.13(b) (including, without limitation, on account of a Substituted Lease Receivable) representing the Repurchase Price for any Receivable shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection 2.15(b). (c) Any Principal Collections received on account of an Extended Term Receivable during the Revolving Period shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (h) of subsection 5.2, be applied to purchase the next succeeding monthly payments of such Receivable which have not been purchased and which are payable prior to the Cash Flow Cutoff Date then applicable to such Receivable. (d) All Net Recoveries required to be deposited in accordance with subsection 2.10(a)(ii) shall be deposited into the Concentration Account as Collections. On the Reporting Date following the Settlement Period in which such deposit is made, such Net Recoveries shall be allocated by the Managing Facility Agent as Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections and the Managing Facility Agent shall notify the Servicer of such allocation the Business Day following such Reporting Date. Such allocation shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error or unless the Managing Facility Agent receives notice from the Servicer of any error made in such allocation on or before the third Business Day after such notice is given to the Servicer and, in the event of any dispute between the Managing Facility Agent and the Servicer with respect to such allocation, the allocation of such Net Recoveries shall be conclusively made by the Managing Facility Agent's independent certified public accountants prior to the next succeeding Reporting Date. Such Net Recoveries shall be distributed pursuant to subsection 2.16.
62 2.16 Distribution and Application of Collections. (a) Principal Collections. All Principal Collections on Purchased Receivables shall be payable to the Purchasers up to the amount of the Outstanding Purchase Price from time to time. On each Settlement Date during the Revolving Period, Principal Collections received during the prior Settlement Period shall be first, applied to the aggregate Purchase Price of Eligible Receivables purchased on such Settlement Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and second, paid to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date and applied in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price. On each Settlement Date during the Amortization Period, Principal Collections received during the prior Settlement Period shall be paid to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date and applied in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price. Following an Amortization Event, Principal Collections on account of the Purchase Discount applied to the Purchase Price of Receivables purchased during a Rating Event or a Discount Event may, at the discretion of the Managing Facility Agent, be deemed Finance Charge Collections available to be distributed pursuant to subsections 2.16(b)(ii) and (b)(iii). (b) Finance Charge Collections. On each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) funds on deposit in the Concentration Account representing Finance Charge Collections in respect of the preceding Settlement Period shall be distributed by the Managing Facility Agent as follows, to the extent of funds available therefor: (i) first, to the Servicer as payment of the Servicing Fee for the preceding Settlement Period; (ii) second, to the Purchasers pro rata as payment of all interest due pursuant to subsection 2.17(a) and (c) for the preceding Accrual Period; (iii) third, to the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser which has made a demand prior to the Reporting Date preceding such Settlement Date, to costs payable pursuant to subsections 2.22, 2.23, 2.24 and 11.5; (iv) fourth, to the Purchasers pro rata as payment of the Commitment Fees for the preceding Accrual Period pursuant to subsection 2.17(d) and second, to the Managing Facility Agent as payment of the fees referred to in subsection 2.17(e) to the extent such fees have not been paid directly by the Seller; (v) fifth, if a Rating Event has occurred and is continuing, to the extent of funds available therefor, to the Managing Facility Agent for deposit into the Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to Finance Charges on those Wholesale Receivables which are Quarterly Receivables which Finance Charges have accrued during the preceding Settlement Period and are payable under the related Contract on a subsequent Settlement Date; and
63 (vi) sixth, any remaining Finance Charge Collections (such remainder, "Excess Spread") shall be distributed as follows: (1) so long as no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, to the Seller or its designees and (2) in all other cases, 100% thereof shall be paid to the Purchasers pro rata as payment in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price. (c) All Collections received from an Obligor of any Purchased Receivable shall be applied to Purchased Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Purchased Receivables, starting with the oldest outstanding amount of such Purchased Receivable (i.e., the most delinquent of such Purchased Receivables), except if the payment is designated by such Obligor for application to specific Receivables. All Principal Collections received on account of any Extended Term Receivable and not used to purchase monthly payments of such Receivable payable after its most recent Cash Flow Cutoff Date shall be applied in the direct order of maturity thereof. Payments made by an Obligor on account of a Receivable shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Managing Facility Agent and the Required Purchasers, be applied as a Collection of any Purchased Receivable of such Obligor to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other indebtedness of such Obligor to the Seller or Raytheon Credit. 2.17 Interest and Fees. (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) below, the Outstanding Purchase Price shall bear interest for each day during an Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to the Note Rate and shall be payable on each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) for the immediately preceding Accrual Period; provided that, during the Amendment Accrual Period, the Outstanding Purchase Price shall bear interest at the Interbank Rate for the Amendment Accrual Period, in accordance with Section 5.3. To the extent that the Outstanding Purchase Price has not been reduced to zero on the date the Amortization Period ends pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of such term, interest shall accrue pursuant to this subsection 2.17(a) regardless of whether the Seller shall be obligated to pay Expense Amounts under subsection 2.18. (b) The Outstanding Purchase Price for Receivables purchased on a Special Settlement Date shall bear interest (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for the first three Working Days following such Special Settlement Date and (ii) thereafter at a rate per annum equal to the Interbank Rate for each day of the Special Settlement Date Accrual Period; provided that, if the Seller provides the Managing Facility Agent with the notice provided for in Section 2.3 at least three Working Days prior to the applicable Special Settlement Date, then interest shall be calculated in accordance with clause (ii) from such Special Settlement Date until the end of the related Special Settlement Date Accrual Period. Interest payable under this Section 2.17(b) shall be payable on the next Settlement Date. Beginning with the first Settlement Date after any Special Settlement Date, interest with respect to the Receivables purchased on such Special Settlement Date shall be calculated in accordance with paragraph (a) above.
64 (c) If all or any portion of any amount (including interest) payable by the Seller hereunder shall not be paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Note Rate plus 1% (the "Default Rate") from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). The Outstanding Purchase Price shall bear interest pursuant to, and at the times specified in, subsection 8.2(a) for each day during an Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate until the Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero (after as well as before judgment). Any amount payable pursuant to this subsection 2.17(c) shall be payable on each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date), or on demand after any judgment. To the extent that the Outstanding Purchase Price has not been reduced to zero on the date the Amortization Period ends pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of such term, interest shall accrue pursuant to this subsection 2.17(c) regardless of whether the Seller shall be obligated to pay Expense Amounts under subsection 2.18. Interest accruing pursuant to this subsection 2.17(c) shall be payable from time to time on demand. (d) During the period from and including the Closing Date to the date on which the Revolving Period ends, a commitment fee (a "Commitment Fee") shall be payable to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of each Purchaser, payable monthly in arrears on each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) and computed at the rate of 0.10% per annum from and after March 18, 1998 (0.13% per annum prior to such date) on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment of such Purchaser during each Accrual Period ending prior to the Settlement Date on which the Commitment Fee is paid, commencing on the first such Settlement Date to occur after the Closing Date. (e) The Seller agrees to pay (i) to the Managing Facility Agent for its account the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, dated March 11, 1999, among the Managing Facility Agent, the Seller and the Guarantor in the amounts and on the dates set forth therein and (ii) to the Syndication Agent for its account the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, dated February 17, 1999, among the Syndication Agent, the Seller and the Guarantor in the amounts and on the dates set forth therein. (f) Interest and fees required to be paid under this subsection 2.17 shall be payable regardless of whether sufficient Finance Charge Collections therefore are on deposit in the Concentration Account on the date or dates such interest or fees are required to be paid.
65 2.18 Yield Adjustment. If on any Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) any Expense Amount is not paid in full on such Settlement Date, then on such Settlement Date the Seller will pay to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of each Purchaser the amounts required to pay all such Expense Amounts in full provided, that the Seller's obligation under this subsection 2.18 in any calendar year shall not exceed an amount equal to the product of the Note Rate as of such date times the Outstanding Purchase Price as of such date. The Seller shall not be obligated to pay pursuant to this subsection 2.18 any Expense Amounts which accrue after the date the Amortization Period ends; provided that the Seller shall remain obligated to pay any Expense Amount which accrued prior to such date (whether or not claimed prior to such date) so long as a claim for such Expense Amount is made prior to the times set forth in the subsection hereof governing such Expense Amount. 2.19 Computations and Payments. (a) All amounts to be paid or deposited by or on behalf of the Seller hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day when due in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. All computations of Commitment Fees, interest and other fees and amounts payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first but excluding the last day). The Managing Facility Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Seller and the Purchasers of each determination of a LIBO Rate or an Interbank Rate. (b) Each determination of the Note Rate, the Interbank Rate or the Default Rate by the Managing Facility Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Seller and the Purchasers in the absence of manifest error. The Managing Facility Agent shall, at the request of the Seller, deliver to the Seller a statement showing the quotations used by the Managing Facility Agent in determining the Note Rate for any Accrual Period. (c) If any Reference Bank's Commitment shall terminate for any reason whatsoever, such Reference Bank shall thereupon cease to be a Reference Bank, and if, as a result of the foregoing, there shall only be one Reference Bank remaining, the Managing Facility Agent (after consultation with the Seller and the Purchasers) shall, by notice to the Seller and the Purchasers, designate another Purchaser as a Reference Bank so that there shall at all times be at least two Reference Banks. (d) Each Reference Bank shall use its best efforts to furnish quotations of rates to the Managing Facility Agent to the extent contemplated by the definition of "LIBO Rate". If any Reference Bank shall be unable or shall otherwise fail to supply such rates to the Managing Facility Agent upon its request, the LIBO Rate shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks or Reference Bank. 2.20 Pro Rata Treatment. (a) Except with respect to payments to a Dissenting Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.8(b)(ii) or 2.13(c), (i) each purchase by the Purchasers hereunder, each payment by the Seller in respect of the Commitment Fees and any reduction of the Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the respective Available Commitment Percentages of the Purchasers and (ii) each payment by the Seller in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price and interest thereon and any repurchase of Receivables shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Purchasers. The Managing Facility Agent shall distribute payments received by or on behalf of the Seller to the Purchasers promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.
66 (b) Unless the Managing Facility Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Purchaser prior to a Settlement Date that such Purchaser will not make available to the Managing Facility Agent the amount that would constitute its Available Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Purchase Price to be paid on such date, the Managing Facility Agent may assume that such Purchaser has made such amount available to the Managing Facility Agent on such Settlement Date, and the Managing Facility Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Seller a corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Managing Facility Agent on a date after such Settlement Date, such Purchaser shall pay to the Managing Facility Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal funds rate during such period as quoted by the Managing Facility Agent, times (ii) the amount of such Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price shall have become immediately available to the Managing Facility Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Managing Facility Agent submitted to any Purchaser with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price is not in fact made available to the Managing Facility Agent by such Purchaser within three Business Days after such Settlement Date, then on the fourth Business Day after such Settlement Date the Seller shall be deemed to have repurchased participating interests in the Receivables in an amount equal to such Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Purchase Price paid on such Settlement Date, together with interest on such amount at the rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate, such repurchase to be made by a cash payment to the Managing Facility Agent for its own account; provided that such repurchase shall not limit the rights of the Seller against the Purchaser which failed to make available its Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price. 2.21 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Purchaser to make or maintain its proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price based on the LIBO Rate as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the Commitment of such Purchaser hereunder to make purchases shall forthwith be canceled and (b) the Outstanding Purchase Price of such Purchaser shall be paid on each Settlement Date thereafter as if such Purchaser were a Dissenting Purchaser under subsection 2.8. 2.22 Requirements of Law. (a) In the event that any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Purchaser with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (each, a "Change in Law") made subsequent to the date hereof (or with respect to a Purchasing Party which becomes a party hereto pursuant to subsection 11.6(c), made subsequent to the date such Purchasing Party became a party hereto) shall:
67 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Purchaser (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the LIBO Rate); or (ii) impose on any Purchaser or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or the making of purchases or the maintaining of a proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price by such Purchaser; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Purchaser of making purchases or maintaining its proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price (or of maintaining its obligation to do any of the foregoing) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Purchaser hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Seller will pay to such Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. (b) If any Purchaser determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Purchaser's capital or on the capital of such Purchaser's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or such Purchaser's obligations hereunder, to a level below that which such Purchaser or such Purchaser's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Purchaser's policies and the policies of such Purchaser's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Seller will pay to such Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser or such Purchaser's holding company for any such reduction suffered. (c) A certificate of a Purchaser setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Purchaser or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this subsection shall be delivered to the Seller and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Seller shall pay such Purchaser the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Purchaser to demand compensation pursuant to this subsection shall not constitute a waiver of such Purchaser's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Seller shall not be required to compensate a Purchaser pursuant to this subsection for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Purchaser notifies the Seller of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Purchaser's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
68 2.23 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or an account of any obligation of the Seller hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Seller shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this subsection) the Managing Facility Agent, Co-Administrative Agent or Purchaser (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Seller shall make such deductions and (iii) the Seller shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, the Seller shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (c) The Seller shall indemnify the Managing Facility Agent, each Co-Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this subsection) paid by the Managing Facility Agent, such Co-Administrative Agent or such Purchaser, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Seller by a Purchaser, or by the Managing Facility Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Purchaser or a Co-Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Seller to a Governmental Authority, the Seller shall deliver to the Managing Facility Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent. (e) Any Foreign Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Seller is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Seller (with a copy to the Managing Facility Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. 2.24 Reemployment Costs. The Seller agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and to hold each Purchaser harmless from any loss or expense (including, but not limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by a Purchaser to lenders of funds obtained by it or them to purchase or maintain an interest in the Purchased Receivables with respect to which the Note Rate is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate) as a consequence of (a) default by the Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder, (b) any reduction in the Outstanding Purchase Price prior to the last day of any Settlement Period, (c)
69 the failure of the Seller or the Servicer to make any amounts available to the Managing Facility Agent when due hereunder or (d) any expenses (excluding legal expenses) incurred by any Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.21. A certificate of such Purchaser submitted to the Seller certifying, in reasonably specific detail, the basis for, calculation of and amounts of such additional costs shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive for a period of two years following the date on which the Amortization Period ends. 2.25 Seller's Obligations Absolute and Unconditional. The Seller's obligations under this Section 2 to make payments, deposits and repurchases shall be absolute and unconditional and shall be performed without regard to any set-off which the Seller at any time may have available to it. 2.26 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Purchaser. (a) If any Purchaser requests compensation under subsection 2.22, or if the Seller is required to pay any additional amount to any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.23, then such Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its purchases hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Purchaser, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.22 or 2.23, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Purchaser to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Purchaser. The Seller hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Purchaser in connection with any such designation or assignment. (b) If any Purchaser requests compensation under subsection 2.22, or if the Seller is required to pay any additional amount to any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.23, or if any Purchaser defaults in its obligation hereunder to make purchases or maintain its proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price or if at any time after the Effective Date any Purchaser shall cause the Managing Facility Agent to notify the Seller and the Servicer of a Prohibited Jurisdiction, then the Seller may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Purchaser and the Managing Facility Agent, require such Purchaser to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in subsection 11.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Purchaser, if a Purchaser accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Seller shall have received the prior written consent of the Managing Facility Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Purchaser shall have received payment of an amount equal to such Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Seller (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under subsection 2.22 or payments required to be made pursuant to subsection 2.23, such
70 assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a request to add an additional Prohibited Jurisdiction, such assignee will not request that such jurisdiction be so categorized. A Purchaser shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Purchaser or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Seller to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 2.27 Designation of Affiliate Receivables and Foreign Receivables.

Each Purchaser represents to the Managing Facility Agent, each Administrative Agent and the Co-Administrative Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents or any other Purchaser, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Seller, the Servicer and Raytheon and made its own decision to make its purchases hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Purchaser also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent or the Co-Administrative Agents or any Purchaser, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Seller, the Servicer and Raytheon. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Purchasers by the Managing Facility Agent hereunder, neither the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agents shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Purchaser with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Seller or Raytheon which may come into the possession of the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent or the Co-Administrative Agents or any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.
120 10.7 Indemnification. The Purchasers agree to indemnify the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Seller or Raytheon and without limiting the obligation of the Seller or Raytheon to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time after the Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Managing Facility Agent or either Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Purchase Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Managing Facility Agent or either Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Purchaser shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Managing Facility Agent's or either Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the reduction of the Outstanding Purchase Price to zero and payment of all other amounts payable hereunder. 10.8 Managing Facility Agent and Administrative Agent in Their Individual Capacities. The Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Seller, the Servicer, RAC and Raytheon and their Affiliates as though the Managing Facility Agent were not the Managing Facility Agent, or such Administrative Agent was not an Administrative Agent, hereunder and under the other Purchase Documents. With respect to purchases made by it, the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents as any Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not the Managing Facility Agent or an Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and the terms "Purchaser" and "Purchasers" shall include the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent, each in its individual capacity. 10.9 Successor Managing Facility Agent or Administrative Agent. The Managing Facility Agent may resign as Managing Facility Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Purchasers and such resignation shall be effective upon the earlier of (i) the expiration of such 30 day notice period and (ii) the appointment of a successor Managing Facility Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.9.; provided that, if a successor Managing Facility Agent shall not have been appointed prior to the end of such 30 day notice period, the Managing Facility Agent shall remain the Administrative Agent until a successor Managing Facility Agent is appointed in accordance with this Section 10.9. If the Managing Facility Agent shall resign as Managing Facility Agent under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, then the Required Purchasers shall appoint from among the Purchasers a successor agent for the Purchasers, which successor agent shall, subject to the consent of the Seller and Raytheon (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Managing Facility Agent including its rights powers and duties as Administrative Agent hereunder, and the term "Managing Facility Agent" shall
121 mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Managing Facility Agent's rights, powers and duties as Managing Facility Agent and as an Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Managing Facility Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holder of an Assignment. After any retiring Managing Facility Agent's resignation as Managing Facility Agent, the provisions of this subsection shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Managing Facility Agent under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents. The Old Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign as an Administrative Agent in accordance with the letter, dated March 17, 1999, among the Old Administrative, Raytheon and the Managing Facility Agent, relating to the Old Administrative Agent's term as an Administrative Agent.

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, with the written consent of the Majority Purchasers, the Managing Facility Agent, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC and Raytheon may, from time to time, enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Purchase Documents for the purpose of adding or deleting any provisions to this Agreement or the other Purchase Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Purchasers, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC, or Raytheon hereunder or thereunder or waiving, on such terms and conditions as the Managing Facility Agent may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Purchase Documents; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (a) increase the Commitment of any Purchaser or extend the Expiration Date or reduce the rate or amount of interest or any fee payable to any Purchaser hereunder or extend (beyond the applicable period of grace) the scheduled date for any payment or deposit by the Seller or the Servicer (if not then the Seller) hereunder, in each case without the consent of the Purchaser affected thereby, or (b) (i) amend, modify or waive any provision of this subsection or reduce the percentage specified in or amend the definitions of "Required Purchasers", or "Majority Purchasers", (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Seller of any rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, (iii) take action with respect to any Purchased Receivable pursuant to subsection 7.1(b)(iii), (iv) amend the criteria set forth in the definition of "Eligible Receivable" or "Ineligible Receivable" or any definition contained in either such definition if the effect thereof is to decrease the Seller's or RAC's repurchase obligation, (v) after the occurrence of a Rating Event release or reassign any material interest of the Purchasers in the Financed Aircraft (except as provided in subsection 11.10), (vi) release Raytheon as Guarantor under the Guarantee or make any material modification or amendment to the Guarantee or release RAC from its obligations under the Repurchase Agreement or make any material modification or amendment to the Repurchase Agreement, (vii) release the interest of the Purchasers in the Intercompany Purchase Agreement, (viii) amend the definition of "Repurchase Factor" or amend subsection 2.10(b) or any definition contained therein if the

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Purchasers and shall be binding upon the Seller, the Servicer, the Purchasers and the Managing Facility Agent. In the case of any waiver, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC, Raytheon, the Purchasers and the Managing Facility Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under any other Purchase Documents, and any Amortization Event (including, any Trigger Amortization Event, any Specified Amortization Event or any Note Rate Amortization Event) waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Amortization Event, Trigger Amortization Event, Specified Amortization Event or Note Rate Amortization Event, or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Section 11.1 no provision of the Agreement which affects the rights or obligations of the Old Administrative Agent shall be amended without the written consent of the Old Administrative Agent. 11.2 Notices.

124 11.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. The Seller agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent for all its out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement, the other Purchase Documents, any Commitment Transfer Supplement executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 11.6 and any other document prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Managing Facility Agent and such Administrative Agent, (b) to pay or reimburse each Purchaser, the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent for all its respective costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Purchase Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Managing Facility Agent, such Administrative Agent and to the several Purchasers (including, but not limited to, allocated costs of in-house counsel and costs incurred by counsel with respect to the Foreign Receivables and the Affiliate Receivables), and (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Purchaser, the Managing Facility Agent, each Administrative Agent and each Co-Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Purchase Documents and any such other documents (all the foregoing, collectively, the "indemnified liabilities"), provided, that the Seller shall have no obligation hereunder to the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent or any Purchaser (each, an "Indemnitee") with respect to indemnified liabilities arising from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (ii) legal proceedings commenced against such Indemnitee by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such, or (iii) legal proceedings commenced against such Indemnitee by any other Purchaser or by any Transferee. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the completion of the Amortization Period. 11.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Parties. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Seller, the Purchasers, the Co-Administrative Agents, the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the Seller may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser and (ii) certain governmental authorities in foreign jurisdictions may require the completion of certain procedures in order for any such assignment to be effective with respect to the Foreign Receivables and the Affiliate Receivables.
125 (b) Any Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests in such Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, the Commitment of such Purchaser or any other interest of such Purchaser hereunder and under the other Purchase Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Purchaser of participating interests to a Participant, such Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Purchaser shall be the "Purchaser" for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, and the Seller and the Managing Facility Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents. The Seller agrees that, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Rating Event and an Amortization Event of the type described in subsection 8.1(a), (b), (i) or (j), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Purchaser under this Agreement; provided that such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of setoff pursuant to this sentence if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its participating interest to share with the Purchasers the proceeds thereof as provided in subsection 11.7. The Seller also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsections 2.22, 2.23 and 2.24 and 11.5 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Outstanding Purchase Price; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such subsections than the transferor Purchaser would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Purchaser to such Participant had no such transfer occurred. Promptly after the sale of any such participation, the selling Purchaser shall give the Managing Facility Agent notice of the amount sold and the identity of the Participant. (c) Any Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to any Purchaser or any affiliate thereof and, with the consent of the Seller and the Managing Facility Agent (which in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld), to one or more additional financial institutions (each, a "Purchasing Party") all or any part of such Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, the Commitment of such Purchaser or any other interest of such Purchaser hereunder and under the other Purchase Documents; provided that such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 unless such assignment is to a financial institution not then a party to this Agreement, in which case such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000. Each such assignment shall be made pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement executed by such Purchasing Party, such Transferor Purchaser and, in the case of a Purchasing Party that is not then a Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof, by the Seller and the Managing Facility Agent, and delivered to the Managing Facility Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register. Any SPC may, without obtaining any consent
126 hereunder, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Purchased Receivable under this Agreement to its SPC Bank, its Liquidity Bank or another SPC managed by the same SPC Bank as such SPC. Each such assignment shall be made pursuant to written notice (a "Transfer Notice") delivered to the Managing Facility Agent for recording in the Register. Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance (if required) and recording of any Transfer Notice or Commitment Transfer Supplement, as the case may be, from and after the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement (or after the effective date set forth in the Transfer Notice), (x) the Purchasing Party thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement (or such Transfer Notice, as the case may be), have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the transferor Purchaser thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement (or such Transfer Notice, as the case may be), be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Commitment Transfer Supplement, or Transfer Notice, as the case may be, covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Purchaser's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such transferor Purchaser shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Commitment Transfer Supplement (or such Transfer Notice, as the case may be) shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Party and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages or Available Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Party of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Purchaser under this Agreement. (d) The Managing Facility Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in subsection 11.2 a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement and each Transfer Notice delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Purchasers and the Commitment of, and proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price from time to time payable to, each Purchaser from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the holder of the Commitment recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Seller, the Servicer or any Purchaser at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Managing Facility Agent. (e) Upon its receipt of a Commitment Transfer Supplement or a Transfer Notice executed by a transferor Purchaser and Purchasing Party (and, in the case of a Purchasing Party that is not then a Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof, by the Seller and the Managing Facility Agent) and, except in the case of a transfer from an SPC to its Liquidity Bank, payment by the transferor Purchaser or the Purchasing Party of a servicing fee of $3,500 to the Managing Facility Agent, the Managing Facility Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Commitment Transfer Supplement or Transfer Notice, as the case may be, and (ii) on the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Seller, such transferor Purchaser and such Purchasing Party.
127 (f) The Seller authorizes each Purchaser to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing Party (each, a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Purchaser's possession concerning the Seller and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such Purchaser by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Purchaser by or on behalf of the Seller in connection with such Purchaser's credit evaluation of the Seller and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement; provided that such Transferee or such prospective Transferee shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions as a Purchaser with respect to all information delivered hereunder. (g) If, pursuant to this subsection, any interest in this Agreement is transferred to any Transferee which is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof, the transferor Purchaser shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, (i) to represent to the transferor Purchaser (for the benefit of the transferor Purchaser, the Managing Facility Agent, Raytheon, RAC, the Servicer and the Seller) that under applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Managing Facility Agent, the Seller, Raytheon, RAC, the Servicer or the transferor Purchaser with respect to any payments to be made to such Transferee in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price, (ii) to furnish to the transferor Purchaser (and, in the case of any Purchasing Party registered in the Register, the Managing Facility Agent and the Seller) (A) either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 (wherein such Transferee claims entitlement to complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder) and (B) an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 and (iii) to agree (for the benefit of the transferor Purchaser, the Managing Facility Agent, Raytheon, RAC and the Seller) to provide the transferor Purchaser (and, in the case of any Purchasing Party registered in the Register, the Managing Facility Agent and the Seller) a new Form 4224 or Form 1001, or Form W-8 or W-9, if applicable, upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such Transferee, and to comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax exemption. (h) Nothing herein shall prohibit any Purchaser from pledging or assigning its interests hereunder to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law or prohibit any SPC from pledging or assigning its interests hereunder to its SPC Bank. 11.7 Adjustments; Set-off.
128 (a) If any Purchaser (a "Benefitted Purchaser") shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Outstanding Purchase Price, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in subsection 8.1(j) or pursuant to the Guarantee, the Repurchase Agreement or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Purchaser, if any, in respect of such other Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, or interest payable thereon, such Benefitted Purchaser shall purchase for cash from the other Purchasers such portion of each such other Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, or shall provide such other Purchasers with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Purchaser to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Purchasers; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Purchaser, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the Purchase Price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Seller agrees that each Purchaser so purchasing a portion of another Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Purchaser were the direct holder of such portion. (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Purchasers provided by law, each Purchaser shall have the right, without prior notice to the Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by the Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Rating Event or an Amortization Event of the type described in subsection 8.1(a), (b), (i) or (j), to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Purchaser or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Seller. Each Purchaser agrees promptly to notify the Seller and the Managing Facility Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Purchaser, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 11.8 Responsibilities of the Seller. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding: (a) the Seller shall perform all of its obligations under Contracts related to the Purchased Receivables to the same extent as if such Purchased Receivables had not been sold hereunder and the exercise by either Administrative Agent or the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser of any of their rights hereunder shall not relieve the Seller from such obligations or its obligations with respect to such Purchased Receivables; and
129 (b) neither Administrative Agent, nor the Managing Facility Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Purchased Receivables or the related Contracts or Financed Aircraft, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the Seller thereunder. 11.9 Optional Repurchase. If the Outstanding Purchase Price at any time during the Amortization Period is less than 10% of the maximum Outstanding Purchase Price at any time during the Revolving Period, then on any Settlement Date thereafter the Seller may, by 10 days prior irrevocable notice to the Managing Facility Agent, repurchase the ownership interests in the Purchased Receivables by payment to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of the Purchasers of an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Outstanding Purchase Price on such Settlement Date, (ii) interest accrued to such Settlement Date and (iii) all other amounts payable to the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers under this Agreement. 11.10 Reassignments. (a) The Purchasers (or a Dissenting Purchaser, as the case may be) shall assign (subject to the Purchasers' right to receive Net Recoveries in certain circumstances as described herein) to the Seller all their (or its) ownership interests in any Purchased Receivable (or portion thereof) sold hereunder (i) which has been repurchased pursuant to subsection 2.8(b) or 2.13(c) (in the case of repurchases from a Dissenting Purchaser) or subsection 2.7(b), 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, or 11.9 (in all other cases) or for which an indemnity in an amount satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers has been paid pursuant to subsection 9.1(a)(vi) or 9.1(a)(xii) or (ii) when the Principal Balance of any such Purchased Receivable has been reduced to zero. In connection with reassignments pursuant to this subsection 11.10(a), the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers shall promptly execute and deliver to the Seller, at the Seller's expense, such documents and instruments of reassignment as the Seller may reasonably request. (b) With respect to any Contract for which all amounts outstanding thereunder (including accrued interest) are paid prior to the Final Payment Date of such Contract, and upon receipt by the Managing Facility Agent of certification by the Servicer of such prepayment in full, the Administrative Agent agrees to execute such documents and instruments (including releases of security interests) for recording and filing with the FAA Registry which are necessary to release the Lien on the related Financed Aircraft as a result of such prepayment in full. In order to facilitate the business operations of the Seller and the Servicer, the Administrative Agent may provide the Servicer with a limited number of executed releases; provided that, the Servicer shall not file any such release without the written consent of the Managing Facility Agent; provided further that, the Servicer shall promptly return all such releases to the Managing Facility Agent upon the occurrence of an Amortization Event or if the Managing Facility Agent shall so request. With respect to any substitution of Lease Receivables made pursuant to subsection 2.13(e), the Administrative Agent agrees to execute such documents and instruments
130 (including releases of security interests) for recording and filing with the FAA Registry which are necessary (i) to release the Lien on the lease related to the Replaced Lease Receivable so long as, prior to or concurrently with the recording and filing with the FAA Registry of any such document or instrument of release, the conditions contained in subsection 5.2(e) with respect to the lease and the Financed Aircraft related to the Substituted Lease Receivable substituted for such Replaced Lease Receivable have been satisfied and (ii) if amounts are required to be paid pursuant to subsection 2.13(e) because the Outstanding Balance of the Replaced Lease Receivable is greater than the Purchase Price of the Substituted Lease Receivable at the time the substitution occurs have been so paid, to release the Financed Aircraft related to such Replaced Lease Receivable. Each Purchaser authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute such documents and instruments in accordance with this subsection 11.10(b) and with respect to Foreign Receivables and Affiliate Receivables, except for Uncertified Foreign Receivables, to take whatever action is necessary to release any Liens in accordance with the intent of this subsection 11.10(b). (c) In connection with any Receivable not purchased by the Purchasers hereunder for which an FAA Assignment was filed with respect to the related Financed Aircraft, the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly execute such documents and instruments for recording and filing with the FAA Registry which are necessary to reassign to the Seller the interests covered by such FAA Assignment in such Financed Aircraft and to take whatever actions with respect to any Foreign Receivable and any Affiliate Receivables are necessary to effect a reassignment in the applicable foreign jurisdictions. (d) The Purchasers shall assign (subject to the Purchasers' right to receive Net Recoveries in certain circumstances as described herein) to Raytheon all of their ownership interests in any Receivable (or portion thereof) purchased by Raytheon pursuant to paragraph 2(e) of the Guarantee. In addition, the Purchasers shall assign (subject to the Purchasers' right to receive Net Recoveries in certain circumstances as described herein) to RAC all of their ownership interests in any Receivable (or portion thereof) purchased by RAC pursuant to Section 2 of the Repurchase Agreement. In connection with reassignments pursuant to this subsection 11.10(d), the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers shall promptly execute and deliver to Raytheon or RAC, as appropriate, such documents and instruments of reassignment as Raytheon or RAC, as the case may be, may reasonably request. (e) All reassignments by the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall be made without any recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever.
131 11.11 Intention of the Parties; Lien on Intercompany Purchase Agreement. (a) It is expressly intended that each purchase hereunder be, and be construed as, an absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables by the Seller to the Purchasers conveying good title thereto free and clear of any Lien, and that the Purchased Receivables not be part of the estate of the Seller in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Seller. It is further expressly intended that such conveyance not be deemed a pledge of the Purchased Receivable by the Seller to the Purchasers or the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that the Purchased Receivables are held to be the property of the Seller, or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed not to effect an absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables, then () the parties hereto intend that the extensions of credit from the Purchasers to the Seller shall be a loan in a principal amount equal to the then Outstanding Purchase Price with interest payable thereon pursuant to subsection 2.17, (ii) the parties hereto intend that this Agreement constitute a security agreement and (iii) the Seller hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers, as collateral security for all of the obligations of the Seller and Raytheon Credit hereunder, a first priority security interest in all of the right, title and interest of the Seller whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to: (A) all accounts, contract rights, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, proceeds of a letter of credit and money consisting of, arising from, constituting or relating to the Purchased Receivables (including, without limitation, amounts from time to time on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account or the Concentration Account); (B) all of the Seller's rights in, under and to the Contracts and its interest in the related Financed Aircraft, including any security interests in such Financed Aircraft, and the Applicable Leases; (C) all accounts, contract rights, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents and money and other rights arising from or by virtue of or constituting the Collections; and (D) all proceeds of the collateral described in the foregoing clauses A, B and C (clauses A through D, collectively, the "Receivables Collateral"). (b) In connection with the transfer of the Receivables Collateral as aforesaid (whether or not such transfer constitutes a sale or the grant of a Lien) the Seller hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers, as collateral security for all of the obligations of the Seller and Raytheon Credit hereunder, a first priority security interest in all of the right, title and interest of the Seller, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Intercompany Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation of Raytheon Credit to make repurchases thereunder (together with the Receivables Collateral, the "Collateral").
132 (c) In connection herewith, if this Agreement is held or deemed not to effect on absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables to the Purchasers, the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party and a creditor under the UCC and all other applicable laws in each relevant jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Trigger Amortization Event, if this Agreement is held or deemed not to effect an absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables to the Purchasers, with the consent of the Required Purchasers the Managing Facility Agent may, or at the direction of the Required Purchasers, the Managing Facility Agent shall, by notice to the Seller, declare the Outstanding Purchase Price to be immediately due and payable, whereupon such amount shall become immediately due and payable and, at such time or at any time after such declaration, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the Seller or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Purchaser shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. The Seller further agrees, at the Administrative Agent's request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at the Seller's premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. The Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser to collect such deficiency. The Seller authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers, at any time and from time to time, to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in this subsection 11.11(c), any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.
133 (d) Each Administrative Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as such Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent, any Co-Administrative Agent, any Purchaser nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Seller or otherwise. Nothing in this subsection 11.11 shall be construed to prejudice any rights the Purchasers have as purchasers or owners of the Purchased Receivables. (e) The foregoing transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or an assumption by either Administrative Agent or any Purchaser of any obligation of the Seller, the Servicer or any other Person in connection with the Purchased Receivables or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including, without limitation, any obligation to any Obligors or insurers, or in connection with the Intercompany Purchase Agreement. 11.12 Leases; Grant of Security Interest. () The Seller agrees to perform and to cause each Affiliate Obligor to perform all its respective obligations under (other than the payment by such Affiliate Obligor of the rent payable under such Lease), and not to terminate or to permit (voluntarily or involuntarily, whether during a bankruptcy case involving the Seller or such Affiliate Obligor or otherwise) the termination of, any Applicable Lease or any lease related to a Lease Receivable (other than in connection with substitutions of Lease Receivables in accordance with subsection 2.13(e)) or the lease by an Obligor on an ExIm Bank Receivable (such leases, collectively, the "Security Interest Leases") sold or substituted hereunder; provided that (i) if a Substituted Lease Receivable which is substituted on any day other than a Settlement Date in accordance with subsection 2.13(e) has a Purchase Price less than the related Replaced Lease Receivable, the Seller agrees to deposit into the Concentration Account on the Settlement Date following such date of substitution (or, if a Remittance Event has occurred, within two Business Days after such substitution) the difference between the Outstanding Balance of such Replaced Lease Receivable and the Purchase Price of such Substituted Lease Receivable and (ii) if such Security Interest Lease has been declared to be in default, the Seller may terminate and may permit any Affiliate Obligor to terminate, such Security Interest Lease if the Seller pays on the date of termination to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Purchasers an amount equal to the aggregate amount of rent payable for the remaining term under such Lease (including any interest thereon on amounts past due), up to the then Outstanding Balance of the related Receivable together with interest on such Outstanding Balance at the rate set forth in such Lease Receivable or Applicable Lease related to such Affiliate Receivable for the period from the last date of payment on such Receivable (all of the foregoing, including any damages resulting from a breach of the foregoing, collectively, the "Lease Obligations"). As collateral security for (i) the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Lease Obligations and (ii) the agreement of the Seller not to reject or permit an Affiliate Obligor to reject pursuant to 11 U.S.C. ss.365 any Lease after the occurrence of a bankruptcy case involving the Seller or such Affiliate Obligor (and all other Obligations under this Agreement) the Seller does hereby grant, bargain, sell, assign, transfer, convey, mortgage, pledge, grant a security interest in and confirm unto the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers the following:
134 (A) each Financed Aircraft subject to a Security Interest Lease, the related Receivable of which is sold or substituted hereunder on the Closing Date or on any Settlement Date; and (B) all proceeds thereof (clauses A and B, collectively, the "Lease Collateral"). (b) In connection with the foregoing grant, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party and a creditor under the UCC and all other applicable laws in each relevant jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Trigger Amortization Event, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the Seller or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Lease Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Lease Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Purchaser shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Lease Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. The Seller further agrees, at the Administrative Agent's request, to assemble the Lease Collateral, to the extent available to the Seller under applicable law, and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at the Seller's premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Lease Collateral or in any way relating to the Lease Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Lease Obligations, in such order as the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Lease Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall
135 be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. The Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Lease Collateral are insufficient to pay the Lease Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser to collect such deficiency. The Seller authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers, at any time and from time to time, to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in this subsection 11.12(b), any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Lease Collateral. (c) Each Administrative Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Lease Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as such Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent any Co-Administrative Agent or any Purchaser nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Lease Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Lease Collateral upon the request of the Seller or otherwise. 11.13 Power of Attorney.

Guarantee. (a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers the prompt and complete payment by the Seller, the Servicer and RAC when due (whether at the stated maturity or otherwise) of the Obligations. Such guarantee shall be a guarantee of payment.

This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Seller, the Servicer and/or RAC may be free from any Obligations. (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Guarantor, in lieu of paying or depositing the amount required to repurchase any Purchased Receivable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, may purchase such Receivable directly from the Purchasers in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, as the case may be, for repurchases as if the Guarantor were the Seller or RAC thereunder. 3. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Rating Event or of an Amortization Event of the type described in subsection 8.1(a), (b), (i) or (j) of the Purchase Agreement, the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser are hereby irrevocably authorized at any time and from time to time without notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being hereby waived by the Guarantor, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser may elect, on account of the liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement or under the Repurchase Agreement, as the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser may elect, whether or not the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser has made any demand for payment and although such liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Managing Facility Agent and such Purchaser shall notify the Guarantor promptly of any such set-off made by it and the application made by it of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser may have.
5 4. No Subrogation, Contribution, Reimbursement or Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives all rights which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee to be subrogated to any of the rights (whether contractual, under Title 11 of the United States Code, including Section 509 thereof, under common law or otherwise) of the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers against the Seller, the Servicer or RAC or against any right of offset of the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantor hereby further irrevocably waives all contractual, common law, statutory or other rights of reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or indemnity (or any similar right) from or against the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any other Person which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee. So long as any Obligations remain outstanding, if any amount shall be paid by or on behalf of the Seller, the Servicer or RAC to the Guarantor on account of any of the rights waived in this paragraph, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor (duly endorsed by the Guarantor to the Managing Facility Agent, if required), be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Managing Facility Agent may determine. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the Repurchase Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations; provided that the foregoing waiver shall be of no force and effect 370 days following the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the Repurchase Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations but only if during such 370-day period none of the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the Guarantor shall have commenced or have commenced against it a bankruptcy proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code. 5. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser may be rescinded by the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser, and the Purchase Agreement, the Repurchase Agreement, any other Purchase Document or any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Purchasers (or the Required Purchasers, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto.
6 6. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. The Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee without regard to the validity or enforceability of the Purchase Agreement, the Repurchase Agreement, the Assignments, the FAA Assignments, the Foreign Assignments, the Bailment Agreement or any other document or instrument executed in connection with any of the foregoing documents, any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser, any defense which relates, directly or indirectly, to the matters covered by the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement or Section 8 of the Repurchase Agreement or set-off which in either case may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Seller, the Servicer or RAC against the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser, or any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Seller, the Servicer or RAC for the Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance; provided that this clause (c) shall not prevent the Guarantor from being discharged from its obligations under this Guarantee pursuant to confirmation of a plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Code in a case in which the Guarantor is the debtor. When the Managing Facility Agent, or any Purchaser is pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any such other Person or of any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers against the Guarantor. 7. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Seller, the Servicer or RAC or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
7 8. Payments. The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Obligations will be paid to the Managing Facility Agent in immediately available funds without set-off in U.S. Dollars at the office of the Managing Facility Agent at the address specified in subsection 11.2 of the Purchase Agreement. 9.

(e)(i) Not issue, assume or guarantee any Debt on or after the date hereof, if such Debt is secured by a mortgage, pledge, security interest or lien (any mortgage, pledge, security interest or lien being hereinafter in this subsection 10(e) referred to as a "mortgage" or "mortgages") upon any Principal Property, or any shares of stock or indebtedness of any Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, without in any such case effectively providing, concurrently with the issuance, assumption or guarantee of any such Debt, that this Guarantee (together with, if the Guarantor shall so determine, any other indebtedness of or guaranteed by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Guarantor and then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Debt; provided however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to: (A) mortgages on any Principal Property, shares of stock or indebtedness of any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Subsidiary; (B) mortgages on any Principal Property acquired, constructed or improved by the Guarantor or any Subsidiary after the date hereof which are created or assumed contemporaneously with, or within 90 days after, such acquisition, construction or improvement to secure or provide for the payment of the purchase price of such property or the cost of such construction or improvement incurred after the date hereof, or, in addition to mortgages contemplated by clause (C) below, mortgages on any Principal Property existing at the time of acquisition thereof; provided, however, that in the case of any such acquisition, construction or improvement the mortgage shall not apply to any property theretofore owned by the Guarantor or any Subsidiary, other than, in the case of any such construction or improvement, any theretofore unimproved real property on which the property so constructed, or the improvement, is located;
11 (C) mortgages on any Principal Property or shares of stock or indebtedness acquired from a corporation which is merged with or into the Guarantor or a Subsidiary; (D) mortgages to secure Debt of a Subsidiary to the Guarantor or to another Subsidiary; and (E) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (A) to (D) inclusive; provided, however, that the principal amount of Debt secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement and that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be applicable only to all or a part of the property which secured the mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on the property). (ii) The Guarantor will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to merge or consolidate with another corporation, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation for a consideration other than the fair market value thereof which consideration shall consist of liquid assets (which shall have a fair market value readily determinable by an independent source), (x) unless, in the case of a merger or consolidation of the Guarantor or a sale by the Guarantor of substantially all of its assets, the successor or purchasing corporation, as applicable, has assumed all of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder and (y) if such other corporation has outstanding obligations secured by a mortgage which, after such merger, consolidation or sale would extend to any of the assets owned by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sale unless, prior to such merger, consolidation or sale, the Guarantor or such Subsidiary shall have effectively provided that this Guarantee (together with, if the Guarantor or such Subsidiary shall so determine, any other Debt, indebtedness or liability issued, assumed or guaranteed by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary, whether then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured by a mortgage, the lien of which, upon completion of said merger, consolidation or sale, will rank prior to the lien of such mortgage of such other corporation on all assets owned by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sale, which, upon completion of such merger, consolidation or sale, will be subjected to the lien of such mortgage of such other corporation. (iii) In the event that the Guarantor shall enter into any indenture or other agreement or instrument relating to the issuance of Debt (collectively, referred to herein as an "indenture") and the provisions of any such indenture with respect to restrictions on Liens permitted to be created or to exist on any of the Guarantor's property or the granting of equal and ratable security interests (collectively, the "Lien Provisions") are more restrictive on the Guarantor than this subsection 10(e), then without any action by any Person, the Lien Provisions shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in the provisions of this subsection 10(e) with the Obligations under this Guarantee constituting the "Debt" for purposes of such Lien Provision.
12 (f) Not enter into any material transaction with any Affiliate (other than a Subsidiary of Raytheon), including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, unless any such transaction is upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Guarantor or such Material Subsidiary, as the case may be, than it would obtain in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.

(h) Comply with all Contractual Obligations and Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, property or financial or other condition of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole or on the ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder. (i) Maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance on all its property in at least such amounts and against at least such risks as are usually insured against in the same general area by companies engaged in the same or a similar business; and furnish to the Managing Facility Agent, upon written request of any Purchaser, a schedule of insurance then in force setting forth the type of coverage, the names of the insurance carriers, policy numbers, the amount and type of coverage and the term of each policy, together with a certificate or certificates of insurance. (j) Permit representatives of the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser to visit and inspect any of its properties and examine and make abstracts from any books and records of the Guarantor with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Documents at any reasonable time and as often as may reasonably be necessary and to discuss the business, operations, properties and financial and other condition of the Guarantor and its Material Subsidiaries with officers of the Guarantor having knowledge of such matters and with its independent certified public accountants; provided that any information, records and materials obtained by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser pursuant to this paragraph 10(j) shall be used by the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser solely in connection with its participation in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Documents (including pursuant to subsection 11.6(b) and (c) of the Purchase Agreement) and shall be treated as confidential by the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser in accordance with Section 11.22 of the Purchase Agreement.

Severability. Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 12. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof. 13.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 14. Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns.

With the prior approval of the Senior Vice President of Human Resources of the Company or other officer to whom authority to approve participation by an entity is delegated by the Board of Directors, the Plan and Trust may be adopted by any corporation or other entity (hereinafter referred to as an Adopting Employer). Such adoption shall be made by the Adopting Employer taking the actions designated by the Administrator as appropriate to the proper adoption and operation of the Plan and Trust.

The Administrator may use any method of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code. (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant. (c)(1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to contribute, as provided in section 4.1(c), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution in an amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8. (2) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall only be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly Compensated Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any remaining Qualified Nonelective Contributions thereafter shall be allocated to the Participant with the next lowest Compensation for that Plan Year. This allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be proportional. (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of such Plan Year. (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for which such contribution is made. (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased), any or all Excess Contributions or Excess Deferrals (whether Elective Deferrals, Matching Contributions or Qualified Nonelective Contributions) allocable to that Participant's Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan. Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any) attributable to such amounts, as determined by the Administrator.
22 (e)(1) The Administrator may recharacterize any or all Excess Contributions for a Plan Year as Employee contributions in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Any Excess Contributions that are so recharacterized shall be treated as if the Participant had elected to instead receive cash Compensation on the earliest date that any Elective Deferrals made on behalf of the Participant during the Plan Year would have been received had the Participant originally elected to receive such amount in cash and then contributed such amount as an Employee contribution. To the extent required by the Internal Revenue Service, however, such recharacterized Excess Contributions shall continue to be treated as if such amounts were not recharacterized. (2) The Administrator shall report any recharacterized Excess Contributions as Employee contributions to the Internal Revenue Service and to the affected Participants at such times and in accordance with such procedures as are required by the Internal Revenue Service. The Administrator shall take such other actions regarding the amounts so recharacterized as may be required by the Internal Revenue Service. (3) Excess Contributions may not be recharacterized under this subsection more than two and one-half (2 1/2) months after the close of the Plan Year to which the recharacterization relates. Recharacterization is deemed to occur when the Participant is so notified (as required by the Internal Revenue Service). (4) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed or recharacterized shall be reduced by Excess Deferrals previously distributed for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable year. (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. In the event of the termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12) months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection. The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an Excess Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. (2)(A) The income allocable to Excess Contributions distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property, appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts, and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been realized.
23 (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion, determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set forth in subparagraph (C). (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year allocable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Contributions by the Participant for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the total Account balance of the Participant attributable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by any Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by the Participant for the Plan Year. (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the Participant's subaccounts in the following order: (A) from the Participant's Elective Deferrals Account (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Elective Deferrals); (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective Contribution Account (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Qualified Nonelective Contributions); and (C) from the Participant's Matching Contribution Account (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Matching Contributions). (g)(1) The term "Excess Contribution" shall mean, with respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the Elective Deferrals (including any Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Matching Contributions that are treated as Elective Deferrals under sections 401(k)(2) and 401(k)(3) of the Code) on behalf of eligible Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year over the maximum amount of such contributions permitted under sections 401(k)(2) and 401(k)(3) of the Code. (2) Any distribution of Excess Contributions for a Plan Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee. (3) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed or recharacterized shall be reduced by Excess Deferrals previously distributed for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable year.
24 4.10 Correction of Excess Deferrals. (a) Excess Deferrals shall be corrected as provided in this section. The Administrator may also prevent anticipated Excess Deferrals as provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines in its sole discretion. A distribution of an Excess Deferral under this section may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 402(g) of the Code. (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant. (c)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Deferrals to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made before the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this subsection include income allocable to the Excess Distribution so distributed, as determined under this subsection. (2) Distribution under this subsection shall only be made if all the following conditions are satisfied: (A) the Participant seeking the distribution designates the distribution as an Excess Deferral; (B) the distribution is made after the date the Excess Deferral is received by the Plan; and (C) the Plan designates the distribution as a distribution of an Excess Deferral. (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral distributed under this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as under subsection (d)(3), except that income shall only be determined for the period from the beginning of the Applicable Taxable Year to the date on which the distribution is made. (d)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Deferrals to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made after the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distribution under this subsection shall only be made if the Participant timely provides the notice required under subsection (d)(2) and such distribution is made after the Applicable Taxable Year and before the first April 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this subsection shall include income allocable to the Excess Deferrals so distributed, as determined under this subsection.
25 (2) Any Participant seeking a distribution of an Excess Deferral in accordance with this subsection must notify the Administrator of such request no later than the first March 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. The Administrator may agree to accept notification received after such date (but before the first April 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable Year) if it determines that it would still be administratively practicable to make such distribution in view of the delayed notification. The notification required by this subsection shall be deemed made if a Participant's Elective Deferrals to the Plan in any Plan Year create an Excess Deferral. (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral distributed under this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as under section 4.9(f)(2), except that the term "Excess Deferrals" shall be substituted for "Excess Contributions" and the term "Applicable Taxable Year" shall be substituted for "Plan Year." The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. (e) The following terms shall have the meanings specified: (1) Applicable Taxable Year. The taxable year (for federal income tax purposes) of the Participant in which an Excess Deferral must be included in gross income (when made) in accordance with section 402(g) of the Code. (2) Excess Deferral. A Participant's Elective Deferrals (and other contributions limited by section 402(g) of the Code), for an Applicable Taxable Year that are in excess of the limits imposed by section 402(g) of the Code for such Applicable Taxable Year. 4.11 Correction of Excess Aggregate Contributions. (a) Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be corrected as provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code. (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed to a Participant. (c)(1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to contribute, as provided in section 4.1(c), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution in an amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8. (2) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall only be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly Compensated Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any remaining Qualified Nonelective Contributions thereafter shall be allocated to the Participant with the next lowest compensation for that Plan Year. This allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be proportional.
26 (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of such Plan Year. (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for which such contribution is made. (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased), any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions allocable to that Participant's Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan. Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any) attributable to such amounts, as determined by the Administrator. (e)(1) The Administrator may forfeit any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. The amounts so forfeited shall not include any amounts that are nonforfeitable under ARTICLE VI. (2) Any forfeitures under this subsection shall be made in accordance with the procedures for distributions under subsection (f) except that such amounts shall be forfeited instead of being distributed. (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. Such distributions shall be specifically designated by the Administrator as a distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions. In the event of the complete termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12) months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection. The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an Excess Aggregate Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. (2)(A) The income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property, appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts, and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been realized. (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion, determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set forth in subparagraph (C).
27 (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year allocable to employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching contributions by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the total Account balance of the Participant attributable to employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching contributions as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by the employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year. (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the Participant's subaccounts in the following order: (A) from the Participant's Employee After-Tax Contribution Account (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Employee After-Tax Contributions); (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective Contribution Account (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Qualified Nonelective Contributions); and (C) from the Participant's Matching Contribution Account (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Matching Contributions). (g)(1) The term "Excess Aggregate Contribution" shall mean, with respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the aggregate amount of the matching contributions and employee contributions (including any Qualified Nonelective Contributions or elective deferrals taken into account in computing the Actual Contribution Percentage) actually made on behalf of eligible Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year over the maximum amount of such contributions permitted under section 401(m)(2)(A) of the Code. (2) The terms "employee contributions" and "matching contributions" shall, for purposes of this section, have the meanings set forth in Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-1(f). (3) Any distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee. 4.12 Correction of Multiple Use. (a) If the limitations of Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-2 are exceeded for any Plan Year, then correction shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this section. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.
28 (b) Any correction required by this section shall be calculated and administered in accordance with the provisions for correcting Excess Contributions (in section 4.9), Excess Aggregate Contributions (in section 4.11) or both, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion. Any correction required by this section, to the extent possible, shall be made only with respect to those Highly Compensated Employees who are eligible in both the arrangement subject to section 401(k) of the Code and the Plan, as subject to section 401(m) of the Code. ARTICLE V Investment of Accounts 5.1 Election of Investment Funds. (a) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) below, upon enrollment in the Plan, each Participant shall direct that the funds in the Participant's Account be invested in increments of one percent (1%) in one or more of the investment options designated by the Administrator, which may include designated investment funds, specific investments or both. The investment choices made available shall be sufficient to allow compliance with section 404(c) of ERISA. ( (b) Matching Contributions made with respect to Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 1999 must be invested in Common Stock until the beginning of the fifth (5th) Plan Year following the Plan Year for which such contributions are made. Thereafter, a Participant may designate the investment of the Matching Contribution funds in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the five-year restriction prescribed in this subsection (b) shall no longer apply immediately following a Participant's Severance from Service or on or after January 1 of the calendar year in which a Participant attains age 55. (c) Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, amounts held in a Participant's ESOP Contribution Account shall be invested in Common Stock. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Participant who has attained age 55 and completed a Period of Participation of at least ten (10) years shall be permitted to direct that up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole integer) allocated to the Participant's ESOP Contribution Account as of the December 31 immediately preceding each Plan Year during the Qualified Election Period may be invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above. With respect to a qualified Participant's final diversification election, fifty percent (50%) is substituted for twenty-five percent (25%) in determining the amount subject to the diversification election. Any direction to diversify hereunder may be made within 90 days after the close of each Plan Year during the Participant's Qualified Election Period, as defined below. Any direction made during the applicable 90-day period following any Plan Year may be revoked or modified at any time during such 90-day period. The diversification of the ESOP Contribution Account as provided herein shall be made through the sale by the Trustee of the
29 number of shares of Common Stock directed by the Participant. The amount that may be invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan shall be equal to the proceeds of such sale. Any such diversification shall be implemented no later than the 180th day of the Plan Year in which the Participant's direction is made. All such directions shall be in accordance with any notice, rulings, or regulations or other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to section 401(a)(28)(B) of the Code. For the purposes of this section, the term "Qualified Election Period" shall mean the six (6) Plan Year period beginning with the later of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 55 or completes a Period of Participation of ten (10) years. (d) Notwithstanding subsection (e) below, the Administrator shall maintain a General Motors Class H Stock Fund ("Fund H") and Raytheon Company Class A Stock Fund ("Fund I") as investment options under the Plan, subject to the limitations prescribed in this subsection (d), for four (4) complete Plan Years following the Effective Date; provided, however, that if at any time prior to the expiration of such four (4) year period, the aggregate fair market value of the assets invested in either Fund H or Fund I falls below five percent (5%) of the highest fair market value of the assets invested in Fund H or Fund I, respectively, the Administrator may, with six (6) months written notice to affected Participants, eliminate Fund H or Fund I, as applicable, as investment options under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may eliminate one or both funds at any time if the Administrator determines in good faith that such elimination is necessary under applicable law (including without limitation the prudence requirements of ERISA). When Fund H and Fund I are eliminated in accordance with this section 5.1(d), Participants with assets invested in Fund H or Fund I, as applicable, shall direct the transfer of such assets to other funds available under the Plan or, if no such election is made, the Administrator shall transfer such assets to a low risk fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its discretion. The only assets that may be invested in Fund H or Fund I are the General Motors Class H Stock Fund and Raytheon Company Class A Stock Fund, respectively, directly transferred to the Plan in connection with the mergers identified in Section 1.1(b). A Participant may not direct that any other funds in the Participant's Account be invested in Fund H or Fund I. (e) In its discretion, the Administrator may from time to time designate new funds and, where appropriate, preclude investment in existing funds and provide for the transfer of Accounts invested in those funds to other funds selected by the Participant or, if no such election is made, to a low risk fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its discretion. (f) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above, a Participant's investment election will apply to the entire Account of the Participant. (g) In establishing rules and procedures under section 5.1, the following shall apply: (1) Each Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee shall affirmatively elect to self-direct the investment of assets in his or her Account, but such election may provide for default investments in the absence of specific directions from such Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee.
30 (2) The investment directions of a Participant shall continue to apply after that Participant's death or incompetence until the Beneficiary (or, if there is more than one Beneficiary for that Account, all of the Beneficiaries), guardian or other representatives provide contrary direction. (3) The Administrator may decline to implement investment designations if such investment, in the Administrator's judgment: (A) would result in a prohibited transaction under section 4975 of the Code; (B) would generate income taxable to the Trust Fund; (C) would not be in accordance with the Plan and Trust; (D) would cause a Fiduciary to maintain the indicia of ownership of any assets of the Trust Fund outside the jurisdiction of the district courts of the United States other than as permitted by section 404(b) of ERISA and Labor Reg. ss.2550.404(b)-1; (E) would jeopardize the Plan's tax qualified status under the Code; (F) could result in a loss in excess of the amount credited to the Account; or (G) would violate any other requirements of the Code or ERISA. (4) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above, the Administrator may establish reasonable restrictions on the frequency with which investment directions may be given, consistent with section 404(c) of ERISA. (5) The Administrator may establish limits on the use of brokers, investment counsel or other advisors that may be utilized, including specifying that all investments must be made through a designated broker or brokers. (6) The Administrator may establish limits on the types of investments that are permitted. (h) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above, the Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as may be advisable or necessary to carry out the provisions of this section, with such rules and procedures being consistent with section 404(c) of ERISA. (i) The Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as may be advisable or necessary to reasonably ensure that all transactions involving the investment funds comply with all applicable laws, including the securities laws.
31 5.2 Change in Investment Allocation of Future Deferrals. Except as otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect to change the investment allocation of future contributions effective as of the first Trade Day subsequent to notice to the Recordkeeper by which it is administratively feasible to make such change. Any changes must be made either in increments of one percent (1%) of the Participant's Account or in a specified whole dollar amount and must result in a total investment of one hundred percent (100%) of the Participant's Account. 5.3 Transfer of Account Balances Between Investment Funds. Except as otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect to transfer all or a portion of the amount in his or her Account between investment funds effective as of the first Trade Day following notice to the Recordkeeper by which it is administratively feasible to carry out such transfer. In determining the amount of the transfer, the Participant's Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the next Trade Day. Such transfers must be made in either one percent (1%) increments of the entire Account or in a specified amount in whole dollars and, as of the completion of the transfer, must result in investment of one hundred percent (100%) of the Account. Transfers shall be effected by telephone notice to the Recordkeeper. 5.4 Ownership Status of Funds. The Trustee shall be the owner of record of the Plan assets. The Administrator shall have records maintained as of the Valuation Date for each investment option allocating a portion of the investment option to each Participant who has elected that his or her Account be invested in such investment option. The records shall reflect each Participant's portion of Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock and General Motors Class H common stock in cash and unitized shares of stock and shall reflect each Participant's portion of all other investment options as may be established by the Administrator in a cash amount. 5.5 Voting Rights. Participants whose Accounts are invested in Common Stock or Raytheon Company Class A common stock on the last business day of the second month preceding the record date (the "Voting Eligibility Date") for any meeting of stockholders have the right to instruct the Trustee as to voting at such meeting. The number of votes is determined by dividing the value of the shares in the Participant's Account by the closing price of the respective classes of stock on the Voting Eligibility Date. If the Trustee has not received instructions from a Participant as to voting of shares within a specified time, then the Trustee shall not vote those shares. If a Participant furnishes the Trustee with a signed vote direction card without indicating a voting choice thereon, the Trustee shall vote the Participant's shares as recommended by management. In addition, each Participant shall have the right to accept or reject any tender or exchange offer for shares of the respective classes of stock. The Trustee shall vote (or tender or exchange) all combined fractional shares of the respective classes of stock to the extent possible in the same proportion as the shares which have been voted (or tendered or exchanged) by each Participant. Any instructions as to voting (or tender or exchange) received from an individual Participant shall be held in confidence by the Trustee and shall not be divulged to the Adopting Employers or to any officer or employee thereof or to any other person.
32 5.6 Allocation of Earnings. (a)(1) The Administrator, as of each Valuation Date, shall adjust the amounts credited to the Accounts (including Accounts for persons who are no longer Employees) so that the total of such Account balances equals the fair market value of the Trust Fund assets as of such Valuation Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, any changes in the fair market value of the Trust Fund assets since the preceding Valuation Date shall be charged or credited to each Account in the ratio that the balance in each such Account as of the preceding Valuation Date bears to the balances in all Accounts as of that Valuation Date with appropriate adjustments to reflect any distributions, allocations or similar adjustments to such Account or Accounts since that Valuation Date. (2) To the extent that separate investment funds are established (as provided in section 5.1(a)), the adjustments required by subsection (a)(1) shall be made by applying subsection (a)(1) separately for each such investment fund so that any changes in the net worth of each such investment fund are charged or credited to the portion of each Account invested in such investment fund in the ratio that the portion of each such Account invested in such investment fund as of the preceding Valuation Date (reduced by any distributions made from that portion of such Account since that Valuation Date) bears to the total amount credited to such investment funds as of that Valuation Date (reduced by distributions made from such investment fund since that Valuation Date). (3) Interim valuations, in accordance with the foregoing procedure, may be made at such time or times as the Administrator directs. (b) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, direct the Trustee to segregate and separately invest any Trust Fund assets. If any assets are segregated in this fashion, the earnings or losses on such assets shall be determined apart from other Trust assets and shall be adjusted on each Valuation Date, or at such other times as the Administrator deems necessary, in accordance with this section. ARTICLE VI Vesting 6.1 Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover Contribution, Qualified Nonelective Contribution and ESOP Contribution Accounts. Each Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to all amounts in the Participant's Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover Contribution, Qualified Nonelective Contribution and ESOP Contribution Accounts. 6.2 Matching Contribution Account. (a) Each Participant who performs an Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1999, shall have a nonforfeitable right to his or her entire Account, including the Participant's Matching Contribution Account.
33 (b) Each Participant who does not perform an Hour of Service on or after January 1, 1999 shall have a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching Contribution Account in accordance with the terms of the Plan as in effect before January 1, 1999 (or, if more favorable, under the terms of the transferee plan in the case of a direct transfer of assets to the Plan in accordance with sections 1.1(b) and 4.5(c)). For this purpose, before January 1, 1999, the Plan provided that each Participant would have a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching Contribution Account upon the earliest of: (1) the Participant's completion of a Period of Service of five (5) years; (2) the Participant's completion of a Period of Participation of three (3) years; (3) the Participant's Retirement, death while an Employee, Disability or attainment of Normal Retirement Age; or (4) in the case of a Participant who formerly participated in the Raytheon Salaried Savings and Investment Plan (10011) and the Raytheon California Hourly Savings and Investment Plan (10012), the Participant's Layoff or Severance from Service due to Qualified Military Service. 6.3 Forfeitures. (a) In the event that a Participant incurs a Severance from Service before attaining a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching Contributions, the Matching Contribution Account will be forfeited as of the first day of the month immediately following the earliest of: (i) the date on which the Participant incurs a Period of Severance of five (5) consecutive years; (ii) death; or (iii) the date on which the Participant's Elective Deferral Account is distributed in accordance with ARTICLE VIII. Forfeitures of Matching Contributions will be used to reduce future contributions of the Adopting Employers to the Plan. (b) If, in connection with his or her Severance from Service, a Participant received a distribution of his or her Elective Deferral Account when he or she did not have a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching Contribution Account, the Matching Contributions that were forfeited, unadjusted by any subsequent gains or losses, shall be restored if he or she again becomes an Employee before incurring a Period of Severance of five (5) consecutive years. 6.4 Break in Service Rules (a) Periods of Service. In determining the length of a Period of Service, the Administrator shall include all Periods of Service, except the following Periods of Service shall not be taken into account: (1) in the case of a Participant who has never had a vested account balance, the Period of Service before any Period of Severance which equals or exceeds five (5) consecutive years; and
34 (2) in the case of a Participant who has had a vested account balance and who has incurred a Period of Severance which equals or exceeds five (5) years, the Period of Service after such Period of Severance shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the nonforfeitable interest of such Participant in the Matching Contributions allocated to his or her Account before such Period of Severance. (b) Periods of Severance. In determining the length of a Period of Service, the Administrator shall include any period of time beginning on an Employee's Severance from Service Date and ending on the date on which he or she is next credited with an Hour of Service, provided that such Hour of Service is credited within the twelve- (12) consecutive month period following such Severance from Service Date. (c) Other Periods. In making the determinations described in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the second, third, and fourth consecutive years of a Layoff (from the first anniversary of the last day paid to the fourth anniversary of the last day paid) and any period in excess of one (1) year of an Authorized Leave of Absence shall be regarded as neither a Period of Service nor a Period of Severance. ARTICLE VII In-Service Withdrawals 7.1 Elective Deferrals and Qualified Nonelective Contributions. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Elective Deferral Account or Qualified Nonelective Contribution Account either (1) on or after attainment of age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2), or (2) in the event of a hardship. (b) In order to be entitled to a hardship withdrawal under this section, a Participant must satisfy the requirements of both subsection (c) and subsection (d). Whether a Participant is entitled to a withdrawal under this section is to be determined by the Administrator in accordance with nondiscriminatory and objective standards. (c)(1) A Participant will be deemed to have experienced an immediate and heavy financial need necessary to satisfy the requirements of this subsection if the withdrawal is on account of: (A) medical expenses described in section 213(d) of the Code incurred by the Participant, the Participant's spouse or any dependents of the Participant; (B) the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence of the Participant; (C) payment of tuition for the next twelve (12) months of post-secondary education for the Participant or his or her spouse, children or dependents; or
35 (D) the need to prevent the eviction of the Participant from his or her principal residence or the foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal residence. (2) The Administrator may, on the basis of such evidence it deems relevant, determine that the Participant has experienced an immediate and heavy financial need for reasons other than those enumerated above in this subsection. (d)(1) A withdrawal under this subsection will be deemed necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant if it satisfies the requirements of this subsection. To the extent the amount of the withdrawal would be in excess of the amount required to relieve the financial need of the Participant or to the extent such need may be satisfied from other resources that are reasonably available to the Participant, such withdrawal shall not satisfy the requirements of this subsection. For purposes of this subsection, a Participant's resources shall be deemed to include those assets of his or her spouse or minor children that are reasonably available to the Participant. (2) A withdrawal may be treated as necessary to satisfy a financial need if the Administrator reasonably relies upon the Participant's representation that the need cannot be relieved: (A) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise; (B) by reasonable liquidation of the Participant's assets to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause an immediate and heavy financial need; (C) by cessation of Elective Deferrals under the Plan for at least twelve (12) months after receipt of the hardship withdrawal; or (D) by other distributions or nontaxable (at the time of the loan) loans from plans maintained by the Adopting Employers or by any other employer or by borrowing from commercial sources on reasonable commercial terms. (e) If a Participant receives a withdrawal for reasons of financial hardship, the Participant's Elective Deferrals shall be reduced to four percent (4%) (or such lower percentage as the Participant shall thereafter designate), if in excess thereof as of the date of the distribution, and shall not be increased during the twelve (12) months immediately subsequent to the date of distribution. 7.2 Employee After-Tax Contributions. Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Employee After-Tax Contribution Account. 7.3 Matching Contributions. Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, after completion of a Period of Participation of five (5) years or more, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Matching Contribution Account.
36 7.4 Rollover Contributions. Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Rollover Contribution Account. 7.5 General Terms and Conditions. All in-service withdrawals are subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) In-service withdrawals of less than five hundred dollars ($500) will not be permitted. (b) In determining the amount of any in-service withdrawal, the Participant's Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the next Trade Day. (c) Payment of the amount withdrawn will be made as soon as administratively feasible after the effective date of the withdrawal. (d) In-service withdrawals from a Participant's Account will generally be made in cash. However, in-service withdrawals from Accounts invested in Common Stock, General Motors Class H common stock or Raytheon Company Class A common stock will be made in cash or stock (with cash for fractional or unissued shares) as elected by the Participant. (e) Funds for in-service withdrawals will be taken on pro-rata basis against the Participant's investment balances in his or her Account. (f) In-service withdrawals may not be redeposited in the Plan. (g) The Administrator may adopt such other rules and procedures as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to properly administer the in-service withdrawal provisions in this ARTICLE. ARTICLE VIII Distribution of Benefits 8.1 General. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Exhibit B to this Plan (or otherwise required by section 4.5(b)), all benefits payable under this Plan shall be paid in the manner and at the times specified in this ARTICLE. (b) All payment methods and distributions shall comply with the requirements of sections 401(a)(4) and 401(a)(9) of the Code and the regulations thereunder and, if necessary, shall be interpreted to so comply. All distributions shall comply with the incidental death benefit requirement of section 401(a)(9)(G) of the Code. Distributions shall comply with the regulations under section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(a)(9)-2. The provisions of the Plan reflecting section 401(a)(9) of the Code override any distribution provisions in the Plan inconsistent with section 401(a)(9) of the Code.
37 8.2 Commencement of Benefits. (a) A Participant (or Beneficiary) shall be entitled to a distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of his or her Account upon Severance from Service (or if earlier, an event described in subsections (e)(3), (4) and (5)). (b) Except as otherwise provided in this section 8.2, payment of benefits to a Participant (or Beneficiary) shall commence within a reasonable period of time following the Participant's Severance from Service (or if earlier, an event described in subsections (e)(3), (4) and (5)). (c) If the value of the nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account exceeds the maximum amount prescribed in section 411(a)(11) of the Code, then payment to the Participant shall not commence without the Participant's written consent, except as otherwise required by Section 8.2(f). Such written consent must be obtained no more than ninety (90) days before the commencement of the distribution. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this subsection (c), all distributions to a Participant's Beneficiary shall commence within a reasonable period of time following the Participant's death (no consent of the Beneficiary is required). (d) Unless a Participant elects otherwise, distribution to the Participant shall commence no later than sixty (60) days after the close of the Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occurs: (1) attainment by the Participant of Normal Retirement Age; (2) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which Participant commenced participation in the Plan; or (3) Participant's Severance from Service. (e) Distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of a Participant's Account attributable to Elective Deferrals and Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall generally commence in accordance with the general provisions of this section 8.2, but in no event before the earliest of: (1) the Participant's Severance from Service; (2) the Participant's attainment of age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2); (3) the termination of the Plan without establishment or maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan); (4) the disposition of substantially all of the assets used by the Employer in a trade or business of the Employer but only with respect to an Employee who continues employment with the entity acquiring such assets; (5) the disposition of the Employer's interest in a subsidiary, but only with respect to an Employee who continues employment with such subsidiary.
38 (f) A Participant who has attained age seventy and one-half (70 1/2) and is subject to the mandatory distribution requirements of section 401(a)(9) of the Code shall receive a lump sum distribution of his or her entire Account at the time distributions must commence in order to comply with such requirements. If additional amounts are allocated to such Participant's Account following such lump sum distribution, additional lump sum distributions of his or her entire Account shall be made at such times any mandatory distributions are required to comply with section 401(a)(9) of the Code. Such payments shall be made notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Plan or election made by such Participant. (g) If a Participant dies before the time when distribution is considered to have commenced in accordance with applicable regulations, then any remaining nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account shall be distributed within five (5) years after the Participant's death. If a distribution is considered to have commenced in accordance with the applicable regulations before the Participant's death, the remaining nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of the Participant's death. 8.3 Form of Distribution. (a) Distributions under the Plan shall be made only in the form of a single, lump-sum payment of the entire nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account. (b) Distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account that is invested in Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock (if any) or General Motors Class H common stock (if any) shall be made in cash or in-kind, at the election of the Participant (or Beneficiary). All other distributions under the Plan shall be made in cash (or cash equivalent). 8.4 Determination of Amount of Distribution. In determining the amount of any distribution hereunder, the nonforfeitable portion of a Participant's Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the telephone notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the next Trade Day. 8.5 Direct Rollovers. (a) A Participant may elect that all or any portion of a distribution that would otherwise be paid as an Eligible Rollover Distribution shall instead be transferred as a Direct Rollover. (b) The Administrator shall determine and apply rules and procedures as it deems reasonable with respect to Direct Rollovers. The Administrator may change such rules and procedures from time to time and shall not be bound by any previous rules and procedures it has applied. (c) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:
39 (1) Direct Rollover. An available distribution that is paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan for the benefit of the distributee. (2) Distributee. A Participant or former Participant. In addition, the Participant's or former Participant's Surviving Spouse or former spouse who is the Alternate Payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, as defined in section 414(p) of the Code, are Distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse. (3) Eligible Retirement Plan. An individual retirement account described in section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity (other than an endowment contract) described in section 408(b) of the Code, a qualified trust described in section 401(a) of the Code if such qualified trust is part of a plan that permits acceptance of Direct Rollovers or an annuity plan described in section 403(a) of the Code. In the case of a Direct Rollover for the benefit of the spouse or former spouse of a Participant, the term "Eligible Retirement Plan" shall only include an individual retirement account described in section 408(a) of the Code and an individual retirement annuity (other than an endowment contract) described in section 408(b) of the Code. (4) Eligible Rollover Distribution. Any distribution under the Plan to a Participant, a Participant's spouse or a Participant's former spouse, except for the following: (A) Any distribution to the extent the distribution is required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code. (B) The portion of any distribution that is not includable in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation described in section 402(e)(4) of the Code). (C) Returns of elective deferrals described in Treas. Reg. ss.1.415-6(b)(6)(iv) that are returned as a result of the limitations under section 415 of the Code.

Reg. ss.1.401(k)-1(f)(4) and ss.1.402(g)-1(e)(3), respectively, and corrective distributions of excess aggregate contributions as described in Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-1(e)(3), together with the income allocable to these corrective distributions. (E) Loans treated as distributions under section 72(p) of the Code and not excepted by section 72(p)(2) of the Code. (F) Loans in default that are deemed distributions. (G) Dividends paid on employer securities as described in section 404(k) of the Code. (H) The costs of life insurance coverage.

(a) The Administrator shall provide Participants or other Distributees of Eligible Rollover Distributions with a written notice designed to comply with the requirements of section 402(f) of the Code. Such notice shall be provided within a reasonable period of time before making an Eligible Rollover Distribution. (b) Any elections concerning the payment of benefits under this ARTICLE shall be made on a form prescribed by the Administrator. The Participant or other Distributee shall submit a completed form to the Administrator at least thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled to commence, unless the Administrator agrees to a shorter time period. Any election made under this section shall be revocable until thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled to commence. (c) An election to have payment made in a Direct Rollover shall only be valid if the Participant or other Distributee provides adequate information to the Administrator for the implementation of such Direct Rollover and such reasonable verification as the Administrator may require that the transferee is an Eligible Retirement Plan. 8.7 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan, payments shall be made in accordance with any judgment, decree or order determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (b)(1) If the Plan receives a Domestic Relations Order, the Administrator shall promptly notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee of the receipt of such order and of the Plan's procedures for determining whether such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. The Administrator shall, within a reasonable period after receipt of such order, determine whether it is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee of that determination. (2) During any period in which the issue of whether a Domestic Relations Order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order is being determined, the Administrator shall separately account for the amounts that would have been payable to the Alternate Payee during such period if the order had been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (c)(1) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of this subsection only if such order clearly specifies the following: (A) the name and last known mailing address (if any) f the Participant and the name and mailing address of each Alternate Payee covered by the order;
41 (B) the amount or the percentage of the Participant's benefits to be paid by the Plan to each such Alternate Payee or the manner in which such amount or percentage is to be determined; (C) the number of payments or period to which such order applies; and (D) each plan to which such order applies. (2) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of this subsection only if such order does not: (A) require the Plan to provide any type or form of benefit or any option not otherwise provided under the Plan; (B) require the Plan to provide increased benefits (determined on the basis of actuarial value); and (C) does not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee that is required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under another order previously determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (d) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing to meet the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order requires that payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee: (1) in the case of any payment before a Participant has separated from service, on or after the date on which the Participant attains (or would have attained) the Earliest Retirement Date; (2) as if the Participant had retired on the date on which such payment is to begin under such order (but taking into account only the present value of the benefits actually accrued and not taking into account the present value of any employer subsidy for early retirement); and (3) in any form in which such benefits may be paid under the Plan to the Participant (other than in the form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity with respect to the Alternate Payee and his or her subsequent spouse). (e) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing to meet the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order requires that payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee at a date before the Participant is entitled to receive a distribution. Such distribution shall be made to such Alternate Payee notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan. (f) The following terms shall have the meanings specified: (1) Alternate Payee. Any spouse, former spouse, child or other dependent of a Participant who is recognized by a Domestic Relations Order as having a right to benefits under the Plan with respect to such Participant. (2) Domestic Relations Order. A judgment, decree or order relating to child support, alimony or marital property rights, as defined in section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code. (3) Earliest Retirement Date. The earlier of: (A) the date on which the Participant is entitled to a distribution under the Plan; or (B) the later of: (i) the date the Participant attains age fifty (50); or
42 (ii) the earliest date on which the Participant could begin receiving benefits under the Plan if the Participant separated from service. (4) Qualified Domestic Relations Order. A Domestic Relations Order that satisfies the requirements of subsection (c) and section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code. (g) If an Alternate Payee entitled to payment under this section is the spouse or former spouse of a Participant and payment will otherwise be made in an Eligible Rollover Distribution, then such spouse or former spouse may elect that all, or any portion, of such payment shall instead be transferred as a Direct Rollover. Such Direct Rollover shall be governed by the requirements of section 8.5. (h) If a Domestic Relations Order directs that payment be made to an Alternate Payee before the Participant's Earliest Retirement Date and such Domestic Relations Order otherwise qualifies as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, then the Domestic Relations Order shall be treated as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and such payment shall be made to the Alternate Payee, even though the Participant is not entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan because he or she continues to be an Employee of the Employer. (i) This section shall be interpreted and administered in accordance with section 414(p) of the Code. 8.8 Designation of Beneficiary. (a) A Participant may designate a Beneficiary (including successive or contingent Beneficiaries) in accordance with this section 8.8. Such designation shall be on a form prescribed by the Administrator, may include successive or contingent Beneficiaries, shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrator and shall comply with such additional conditions and requirements as the Administrator shall prescribe. The interest of any person as Beneficiary shall automatically cease on his or her death and any further payments from the Plan shall be made to the next successive or contingent Beneficiary. (b) A Participant may change his or her Beneficiary designation from time to time, without the consent or knowledge of any previously designated Beneficiary, by filing a new Beneficiary designation form with the Administrator in accordance with subsection (a). (c) If a Participant dies without a designated Beneficiary surviving, the person or persons in the following class of successive beneficiaries surviving, any testamentary devise or bequest to the contrary notwithstanding, shall be deemed to be the Participant's Beneficiary: the Participant's (1) spouse, (2) children and issue of deceased children by right of representation, (3) parents, (4) brothers and sisters and issue of deceased brothers and sisters by right of representation, or (5) executors or administrators. If no Beneficiary can be located during a period of seven (7) years from the date of death, the Participant's Account shall be treated in the same manner as a forfeiture under section 6.3(a).
43 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, if a Participant is married at the time of his or her death, such Participant shall be deemed to have designated his or her surviving spouse as Beneficiary, unless such Participant has filed a Beneficiary designation under subsection (a) and such spouse has consented in writing to the election (acknowledging the effect of the election and specifically acknowledging the nonspouse Beneficiary) and such consent was witnessed by either the Administrator (or its delegate) or a notary public. Such consent shall not be required if the Participant does not have a spouse or the spouse cannot be located. Such consent shall not be required if the Participant is legally separated from his or her spouse or the Participant has been abandoned (under applicable local law) and the Participant has a court order to such effect, unless a Qualified Domestic Relations Order provides otherwise. If the Participant's spouse is legally incompetent to give consent, the spouse's legal guardian (even if the guardian is the Participant) may give consent. 8.9 Lost Participant or Beneficiary. (a) All Participants and Beneficiaries shall have the obligation to keep the Administrator informed of their current address until such time as all benefits due have been paid. (b) If any amount is payable to a Participant or Beneficiary who cannot be located to receive such payment, such amount may, at the discretion of the Administrator, be forfeited; provided, however, that if such Participant or Beneficiary subsequently claims the forfeited amount, it shall be reinstated and paid to such Participant or Beneficiary. Such reinstatement may, in the Administrator's sole discretion, be made from contributions by one or more Adopting Employers, forfeitures or Trust earnings, and shall be treated as a special allocation that supersedes the normal allocation rules. (c) If the Administrator has not, after due diligence, located a Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to payment within three (3) years after the Participant's Severance from Service, then, at the discretion of the Administrator, such person may be presumed deceased for purposes of this Plan. Any such presumption of death shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties. 8.10 Payments to Incompetents. If a Participant or Beneficiary entitled to receive any benefits hereunder is adjudicated to be legally incapable of giving valid receipt and discharge for such benefits, the benefits may be paid to the duly authorized personal representative of such Participant or Beneficiary. 8.11 Offsets. Any transfers or payments made from a Participant's Account to a person other than the Participant pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall reduce the Participant's Account and offset any amounts otherwise due to such Participant. Such transfers or payments shall not be considered a forfeiture for purposes of the Plan. 8.12 Income Tax Withholding. To the extent required by section 3405 of the Code, distributions and withdrawals from the Plan shall be subject to federal income tax withholding.
44 ARTICLE IX Loans 9.1 Availability of Loans. Participants may borrow against all or a portion of the nonforfeitable balance in the Participant's Account, subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE. Participants who have incurred a Severance from Service will not be eligible for a Plan loan. 9.2 Minimum Amount of Loan. No loan of less than five hundred dollars ($500) will be permitted. 9.3 Maximum Amount of Loan. No loan in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance will be permitted. In addition, limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code and any other requirements of applicable statute or regulation will be applied. Under the current requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, a loan cannot exceed the lesser of one-half (1/2) of the value of the Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance or fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) reduced by the excess of (a) the highest outstanding balance of loans from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day before the date on which such loan was made over (b) the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan on the date on which such loan was made. 9.4 Effective Date of Loans. Loans will be effective as specified in the Administrator's rules then in effect. 9.5 Repayment Schedule. The Participant may select a repayment schedule of one, two, three, four or five (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) years. If the loan is used to acquire any dwelling which, within a reasonable time is to be used (determined at the time the loan is made) as the principal residence of the Participant, the repayment period may be extended up to fifteen (15) years at the election of the Participant. All repayments will be made through payroll deductions in accordance with the loan agreement executed at the time the loan is made, except that, in the event of the sale of all or a portion of the business of the Employer or one of the Adopting Employers, or other unusual circumstances, the Administrator, through uniform and equitable rules, may establish other means of repayment. The loan agreement will permit repayment of the entire outstanding balance in one lump-sum and the repayment of any portion of the outstanding balance at any time (with appropriate adjustment to the remaining payment schedule as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis). The repayment schedule shall provide for substantially level amortization of the loan. Loan repayments will be suspended under this Plan as permitted under section 414(u) of the Code. 9.6 Limit on Number of Loans. Except as otherwise provided herein, no more than two (2) loans may be outstanding at any time. If a Participant has more than two (2) loans outstanding on January 1, 1999, or thereafter on account of a transfer of assets from another plan in accordance with section 4.5, the Participant may not obtain a new loan until he or she has less than two (2) loans outstanding.
45 9.7 Interest Rate. The interest rate for a loan pursuant to this ARTICLE will be equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day in December, March, June and September of each year. The rate published on the first business day in December will apply to loans which are made at any time during the period January 1 through March 31; the rate published on the first business day of March will apply to loans which are made at any time during the period April 1 through June 30; the rate published on the first business day in June will apply to loans which are made at anytime during the period July 1 through September 30; and the rate published on the first business day in September will apply to loans which are made at any time during the period October 1 through December 31. For purposes of this section 9.7, a loan is considered to be made when the loan proceeds are made available to the Participant. 9.8 Effect Upon Participant's Account. Upon the granting of a loan to a Participant by the Administrator, the allocations in the Participant's Account to the respective investment funds will be reduced on a pro rata basis and replaced by the loan balance which will be designated as an asset in the Account. Such reduction shall be effected by reducing the Participant's Account in the following sequence, with no reduction of the succeeding Accounts until prior Accounts have been exhausted by the loan: Matching Contribution Account; Elective Deferral Account; ESOP Contribution Account, Rollover Contribution Account; and Employee After-Tax Contribution Account. Upon repayment of the principal and interest, the loan balance will be reduced, the Participant Accounts will be increased in the reverse order in which they were exhausted by the loan, and the loan payments will be allocated to the respective investment funds in accordance with the investment election then in effect. 9.9 Effect of Severance From Service and Nonpayment. In the event that a loan remains outstanding upon the Severance from Service of a Participant, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the outstanding loan. In any case where payments on the outstanding loan are not made within ninety (90) days of the Participant's Severance from Service Date, the amount of any unpaid principal will be deducted from the Participant's account and reported as a distribution. If, as a result of layoff or Authorized Leave of Absence, a Participant, although still in a Period of Service, is not being compensated through the Employer's payroll system, loan payments will be suspended until the earliest of the first pay date after the Participant returns to active employment with the Employer, the Participant's Severance from Service Date, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date of the suspension. In the event the Participant does not return to active employment with the Employer, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the outstanding loan. If the Participant fails to resume payments on the loan, the outstanding loan will be reported as a taxable distribution. In no event, however, shall the loan be deducted from the Participant's Account earlier than the date on which the Participant (i) incurs a Severance from Service, or (ii) attains age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2).
46 ARTICLE X Contribution and Benefit Limitations 10.1 Contribution Limits. (a) The Annual Additions that may be allocated to a Participant's Account for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of: (1) thirty thousand dollars ($30,000); or (2) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant's Compensation for that Limitation Year. (b) If the Employer maintains any other Defined Contribution Plans then the limitations in subsection (a) shall be computed with reference to the aggregate Annual Additions for each Participant from all such Defined Contribution Plans. (c) If the Annual Additions for a Participant would exceed the limits specified in this section, then the Annual Additions under this Plan for that Participant shall be reduced to the extent necessary to prevent such limits from being exceeded. Such reduction shall be made in accordance with section 10.4. 10.2 Overall Limits. (a) With respect to Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 2000, if a Participant is participating in both a Defined Contribution Plan and a Defined Benefit Plan of the Employer, then the sum of the Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction for any Limitation Year shall not exceed 1.0. (b) If the sum of the Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction would exceed 1.0, then the annual benefits under the Defined Benefit Plan shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the sum of such fractions does not exceed 1.0. 10.3 Annual Adjustments to Limits. The dollar limits for Annual Additions and the dollar limits in the Defined Benefit Fraction and Defined Contribution Fraction shall be adjusted for cost-of-living to the extent permitted under section 415 of the Code. 10.4 Excess Amounts. (a) The foregoing limits shall be limits on the allocation that may be made to a Participant's Account in any Limitation Year. If an excess Annual Addition would otherwise result from allocation of forfeitures, reasonable errors in determining Compensation or other comparable reasons, then the Administrator may take any (or all) of the following steps to prevent the excess Annual Additions from being allocated: (1) return any contributions from the Participant, as long as such return is nondiscriminatory;
47 (2) hold the excess amounts unallocated in a suspense account and apply the balance of the suspense account against Matching or ESOP Contributions for that Participant made in succeeding years; (3) hold the excess amounts unallocated n a suspense account and apply the balance of the suspense account against succeeding year Matching or ESOP Contributions; (4) reallocate the excess amounts to other Participants. (b) Any suspense account established under this section shall not be credited with income or loss unless otherwise directed by the Administrator. If a suspense account under this section is to be applied in a subsequent Limitation Year, then the amounts in the suspense account shall be applied before any Annual Additions (other than forfeitures) are made for such Limitation Year. 10.5 Definitions. (a) The following terms shall have the meanings specified: (1) Annual Addition. The sum for any Limitation Year of additions (not including Rollover Contributions) to a Participant's Account as a result of: (A) Employer contributions (including Matching Contributions, ESOP Contributions, Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Elective Deferrals); (B) Employee contributions; (C) forfeitures; and (D) amounts described in Code sections 415(l)(1) and 419A(d)(2). (2)(A) Defined Benefit Fraction. A fraction, the numerator of which is the Projected Annual Benefit of the Participant under all Defined Benefit Plans of the Employer (determined as of the close of the Limitation Year) and the denominator of which is the Projected Annual Benefit the Participant would have under such plans (determined as of the close of the Limitation Year) if such plans provided an annual benefit equal to the lesser of: (i) the product of 1.25 multiplied by ninety thousand dollars ($90,000); or (ii) the product of 1.4 multiplied by one hundred percent (100%) of the Participant's average Compensation for the Participant's three (3) consecutive Years of Service that produce the highest average Compensation.

49 ARTICLE XI Top-Heavy Rules 11.1 General. This ARTICLE shall only be applicable if the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan under section 416 of the Code. If the Plan does not become a Top-Heavy Plan, then none of the provisions of this ARTICLE shall be operative. The provisions of this ARTICLE shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with the requirements of section 416 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 11.2 Vesting. (a) If the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan, then amounts in a Participant's Account attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall be vested in accordance with this section, in lieu of ARTICLE VI, to the extent this section produces a greater degree of vesting. This section shall only apply to Participants who have at least an Hour of Service after the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan. (b) If applicable, amounts in a Participant's Account attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall vest as follows: Years of Top Heavy Service Vested Percentage Fewer than 3 0% 3 or more 100% (c) If the Plan ceases to be a Top-Heavy Plan then subsection (b) shall no longer be applicable; provided, however, that in no event shall the vested percentage of any Participant be reduced by reason of the Plan ceasing to be a Top-Heavy Plan. Subsection (b) shall nevertheless continue to apply for any Participant who was previously covered by it and who has at least three (3) Years of Top-Heavy Service. 11.3 Minimum Contribution. (a) For each Plan Year that the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the Adopting Employers shall make a contribution to be allocated directly to the Account of each Non-Key Employee. (b) The amount of the contribution (and forfeitures) required to be contributed and allocated for a Plan Year by this section is three percent (3%) of the Top-Heavy Compensation for that Plan Year of each Non-Key Employee who is both a Participant and an Employee on the last day of the Plan Year for which the contribution is made, with adjustments as provided herein. If the contributions (other than Rollover Contributions) allocated to the Accounts of each Key Employee for a Plan Year are less than three percent (3%) of his or her Top-Heavy Compensation, then the contribution required by the preceding sentence shall be reduced for that Plan Year to the same percentage of Top-Heavy Compensation that was allocated to the Account of the Key Employee whose Account received the greatest allocation of contributions (other than Rollover Contributions) for that Plan Year, when computed as a percentage of Top-Heavy Compensation.
50 (c) The contribution required by this section shall be reduced for a Plan Year to the extent of any ESOP or Qualified Nonelective Contributions made and allocated under this Plan or any other contributions (as permitted under section 416 of the Code and the regulations thereunder) from the Adopting Employers made and allocated under any other Aggregated Plans. 11.4 Definitions. (a) The following terms shall have the meanings specified herein: (1) Aggregated Plans. (A) The Plan, any plan that is part of a "required aggregation group" and any plan that is part of a "permissive aggregation group" that the Adopting Employers treat as an Aggregated Plan. (B) The "required aggregation group" consists of each plan of the Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates (in the Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years) and each other plan of the Adopting Employers which enables any plan of the Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates to meet the requirements of section 401(a)(4) or section 410(b) of the Code. Also included in the required aggregation group shall be any terminated plan that covered a Key Employee and was maintained within the five (5) year period ending on the Determination Date. (C) The "permissive aggregation group" consists of any plan not included in the "required aggregation group" if the Aggregated Plan described in subparagraph (A) above would continue to meet the requirements of section 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code with such additional plan being taken into account. (2) Determination Date. The last day of the preceding Plan Year, or, in the case of the first plan year of any plan, the last day of such plan year. The computations made on the Determination Date shall utilize information from the immediately preceding Valuation Date. (3) Key Employee. (A) An Employee (or former Employee) who, at any time during the Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years, is: (i) An officer of one of the Adopting Employers with annual Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan Year greater than fifty percent (50%) of the amount in effect under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar year in which that Plan Year ends; (ii) one of the ten (10) Employees owning (or considered as owning under section 318 of the Code) the largest interest in one of the Adopting Employers, who has more than one-half of one percent (.5%) interest in such Adopting Employer, and who has annual Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan Year at least equal to the maximum dollar limitation under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar year in which that Plan Year ends;
51 (iii) a five percent (5%) or greater shareholder in one of the Adopting Employers; or (iv) a one percent (1%) shareholder in one of the Adopting Employers with annual Top-Heavy Compensation from the Adopting Employer of more than one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000). (B) For purposes of paragraphs (3)(A)(iii) and (3)(A)(iv), the rules of section 414(b), (c) and (m) of the Code shall not apply. Beneficiaries of an Employee shall acquire the character of such Employee and inherited benefits will retain the character of the benefits of the Employee who performed services. (4) Non-Key Employee. Any Employee who is not a Key Employee. (5) Super Top-Heavy Plan. A Top-Heavy Plan in which the sum of the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits and accounts for Key Employees exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the comparable sum determined for all Employees. The foregoing determination shall be made in the same manner as the determination of a Top-Heavy Plan under this section. (6) Top-Heavy Compensation. The term Top-Heavy Compensation shall have the same meaning as the term Compensation has under section 2.13. (7) Top-Heavy Plan. The Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan for a Plan Year if, as of the Determination Date for that Plan Year, the sum of (i) the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all Defined Benefit Plans that are Aggregated Plans and (ii) the aggregate of the accounts of Key Employees under all Defined Contribution Plans that are Aggregated Plans exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the comparable sum determined for all Employees. .. (8) Years of Top-Heavy Service. The number of Years of Service with the Adopting Employers that might be counted under section 411(a) of the Code, disregarding all service that may be disregarded under section 411(a)(4) of the Code. (b) The definitions in this section and the provisions of this ARTICLE shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with section 416 of the Code. 11.5 Special Rules. (a) For purposes of determining the present value of the cumulative accrued benefit for any Participant or the amount of the Account of any Participant, such present value or amount shall be increased by the aggregate distributions made with respect to such Participant under the Plan during the Plan Year that includes the Determination Date and the four (4) preceding Plan Years (if such amounts would otherwise have been omitted).
52 (b)(1) In the case of unrelated rollovers and transfers, (i) the plan making the distribution or transfer is to count the distribution as a distribution under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and (ii) the plan accepting the rollover or transfer is not to consider the rollover or transfer as part of the accrued benefit if such rollover or transfer was accepted after December 31, 1983, but is to consider it as part of the accrued benefit if such rollover or transfer was accepted before January 1, 1984. For this purpose, rollovers and transfers are to be considered unrelated if they are both initiated by the Employee and made from a plan maintained by one employer to a plan maintained by another employer. (2) In the case of related rollovers and transfers, the plan making the distribution or transfer is not to count the distribution or transfer under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and the plan accepting the rollover or transfer counts the rollover or transfer in the present value of the accrued benefits. For this purpose, rollovers and transfers are to be considered related if they are not unrelated under subsection (b)(1). (c) If any individual is a Non-Key Employee with respect to any plan for any Plan Year, but such individual was a Key Employee with respect to such plan for any prior Plan Year, any accrued benefit for such Employee (and the account of such Employee) shall not be taken into account. (d) Beneficiaries of Key Employees and former Key Employees are considered to be Key Employees and Beneficiaries of Non-Key Employees and former Non-Key Employees are considered to be Non-Key Employees. (e) The accrued benefit of an Employee who has not performed any service for the Adopting Employer maintaining the Plan at any time during the five (5) year period ending on the Determination Date is excluded from the calculation to determine top-heaviness. However, if an Employee performs no services, such Employee's total accrued benefit is included in the calculation for top-heaviness. 11.6 Adjustment of Limitations. (a) If this section is applicable, then the contribution and benefit limitations in section 10.5 shall be reduced. Such reduction shall be made by modifying section 10.5(a)(2)(A) of the definition of Defined Benefit Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied by ninety thousand dollars ($90,000), or" and by modifying section 10.5(a)(4)(A) of the definition of Defined Contribution Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied by thirty thousand dollars ($30,000), or" (b) This section shall be applicable for any Plan Year in which either: (1) the Plan is a Super Top-Heavy Plan, or (2) the Plan both is a Top-Heavy Plan (but not a Super Top-Heavy Plan) and provides contributions (other than Rollover Contributions and forfeitures to the Account of any Non-Key Employee in an amount less than four percent (4%) of such Participant's Top-Heavy Compensation, as determined in accordance with section 11.3(b).
53 ARTICLE XII The Trust Fund 12.1 Trust. During the period in which this Plan remains in existence, the Company or any successor thereto shall maintain in effect a Trust with a corporation and/or an individual(s) as Trustee, to hold, invest, and distribute the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms of such Trust. 12.2 Investment of Accounts. The Trustee shall invest and reinvest the Participant's accounts in the investment options available under the Plan in accordance with ARTICLE V, as directed by the Administrator or its delegate. The Administrator shall issue such directions in accordance with the investment options selected by the Participants which shall remain in force until altered in accordance with Article V. 12.3 Expenses. Expenses of the Plan and Trust shall be paid from the Trust. 12.4 Acquisition Loans. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the Plan, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to incur Acquisition Loans from time to time to finance the acquisition of Common Stock or to repay a prior Acquisition Loan. An Acquisition Loan shall be for a specific term, shall bear a reasonable rate of interest, and shall not be payable on demand except in the event of default. Acquisition loans may be secured by the pledge of the Financed Shares so acquired (or acquired with the proceeds of a prior Acquisition Loan which is being refinanced). No other Trust assets may be pledged as collateral for an Acquisition Loan, and no lender shall have recourse against Trust assets other than any Financed Shares remaining subject to pledge. If the lender is a party in interest (as defined in ERISA), the Acquisition Loan must provide for a transfer of Trust assets on default only upon and to the extent of the failure of the Trust to meet the payment schedule of the Acquisition Loan. Any pledge of Financed Shares must provide for the release of the shares so pledged as payments on the Acquisition Loan are made by the Trustee, and such Financed Shares are allocated to Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts under Article IV. Payments of principal and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan shall be made by the Trustee (as directed by the Administrator) only from Employer contributions paid in cash to enable the Trust to repay such Acquisition Loan, from earnings attributable to such Employer contributions, and from any cash dividends received by the Trust on such Financed Shares. Except as required by section 409(h) of the Code and by Treasury Regulations sections 54.4975(b)(9), (10), or as otherwise required by applicable law, no Financed Shares may be subject to a put, call or other option, or a buy-sell or similar arrangement while held by, or distributed from, the Plan, whether or not the ESOP Portion of the Plan is an employee stock ownership plan, within the meaning of section 4975(e)(7) of the Code at the time.
54 12.5 Sale of Common Stock. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the Plan, subject to the approval of the Senior Vice President of Human Resources of the Company or other officer authorized by the Board of Directors to give such approval, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to sell shares of Common Stock to any person, including the Company and any Affiliates, provided such sale must be made at a price not less favorable to the Plan than fair market value. In the event that the Trustee is unable to make payments of principal and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan when due, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to sell any Financed Shares that have not yet been allocated to Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts or to obtain an Acquisition Loan in an amount sufficient to make such payments. ARTICLE XIII Administration of The Plan 13.1 General Administration. The general administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the Company (or any successor thereto) which shall be the Administrator and named Fiduciary for purposes of ERISA. The Company shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to construe the terms of the Plan and to make determinations as to eligibility for benefits and as to other issues within the "Responsibilities of the Administrator" described in this ARTICLE. All such determinations of the Company shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. 13.2 Responsibilities of the Administrator. Except as otherwise provided in ERISA, the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries) may allocate any duties and responsibilities under the Plan and Trust among themselves in any mutually agreed upon manner. Such allocation shall be in a written document signed by the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries) and shall specifically set forth this allocation of duties and responsibilities, which may include the following: (a) Determination of all questions which may arise under the Plan with respect to questions of fact and law, including without limitation eligibility for participation, administration of Accounts, membership, vesting, loans, withdrawals, accounting, status of Accounts, stock ownership and voting rights, and any other issue requiring interpretation or application of the Plan. (b) Establishment of procedures required by the Plan, such as notification to Employees as to joining the Plan, selecting and changing investment options, suspending deferrals, exercising voting rights in stock, withdrawing and borrowing Account balances, designation of Beneficiaries, election of method of distribution, and any other matters requiring a uniform procedure. (c) Submission of necessary amendments to supplement omissions from the Plan or reconcile any inconsistency therein. (d) Filing appropriate reports with the government as required by law.
55 (e) Appointment of a Trustee or Trustees, Recordkeepers, and investment managers. (f) Review at appropriate intervals of the performance of the Trustee and such investment managers as may have been designated. (g) Appointment of such additional Fiduciaries as deemed necessary for the effective administration of the Plan, such appointments to be by written instrument. 13.3 Liability for Acts of Other Fiduciaries. Each Fiduciary shall be responsible only for the duties allocated or delegated to said Fiduciary, and other Fiduciaries shall not be liable for any breach of fiduciary responsibility with respect to any act or omission of any other Fiduciary unless: (a) The Fiduciary knowingly participates in or knowingly attempts to conceal the act or omission of such other Fiduciary and knows that such act or omission constitutes a breach of fiduciary responsibility by the other Fiduciary; (b) The Fiduciary has knowledge of a breach of fiduciary responsibility by the other Fiduciary and has not made reasonable efforts under the circumstances to remedy the breach; or (c) The Fiduciary's own breach of his or her specific fiduciary responsibilities has enabled another Fiduciary to commit a breach. No Fiduciary shall be liable for any acts or omissions which occur prior to his or her assumption of Fiduciary status or after his or her termination from such status. 13.4 Employment by Fiduciaries. Any Fiduciary hereunder may employ, with the written approval of the Administrator, one or more persons to render service with regard to any responsibility which has been assigned to such Fiduciary under the terms of the Plan including legal, tax, or investment counsel and may delegate to one or more persons any administrative duties (clerical or otherwise) hereunder. 13.5 Recordkeeping. The Administrator shall keep or cause to be kept any necessary data required for determining the Account status of each Participant. In compiling such information, the Administrator may rely upon its employment records, including representations made by the Participant in the employment application and subsequent documents submitted by the Participant to the Employer. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon such information when furnished by the Administrator or its delegate. Each Employee shall be required to furnish the Administrator upon request and in such form as prescribed by the Administrator, such personal information, affidavits and authorizations to obtain information as the Administrator may deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan, including but not limited to proof of the Employee's date of birth and the date of birth of any person designated by a Participant as a Beneficiary.
56 13.6 Claims Review Procedure. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section 13.6, the Administrator shall make all determinations as to the right of any person to Accounts under the Plan. Any such determination shall be made pursuant to the following procedures, which shall be conducted in a manner designed to comply with section 503 of ERISA: (1) Step 1. Claims with respect to an Account should be filed by a claimant as soon as practicable after the claimant knows or should know that a dispute has arisen with respect to an Account, but at least thirty (30) days prior to the claimant's actual retirement date or, if applicable, within sixty (60) days after the death, Disability or Severance from Service of the Participant whose Account is at issue, by mailing a copy of the claim to the Benefits and Services Department, Raytheon Company, 141 Spring Street, Lexington, Massachusetts 02421.

(4) Step 4. Within thirty (30) days following receipt of a request for review, the designated officer or claims review committee shall provide the claimant a further opportunity to present his or her position. At the designated officer or claims review committee's discretion, such presentation may be through an oral or written presentation. Prior to such presentation, the claimant shall be permitted the opportunity to review pertinent documents and to submit issues and comments in writing. Within a reasonable time following presentation of the claimant's position, which usually should not exceed thirty (30) days, the designated officer or claims review committee shall inform the claimant in writing of the decision on review setting forth the reasons for such decision and citing pertinent provisions in the Plan. (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (a), the Administrator is the Fiduciary to whom the Plan grants full discretion, with the advice of counsel, to interpret the Plan; to determine whether a claimant is eligible for benefits; to decide the amount, form and timing of benefits; and to
57 resolve any other matter under the Plan which is raised by a claimant or identified by the Administrator. All questions arising from or in connection with the provisions of the Plan and its administration, not herein provided to be determined by the Board of Directors, shall be determined by the Administrator, and any determination so made shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons affected thereby. 13.7 Indemnification of Directors and Employees. The Adopting Employers shall indemnify any Fiduciary who is a director, officer or Employee of the Employer, his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all liability and reasonable expense, including counsel fees, amounts paid in settlement and amounts of judgments, fines or penalties, incurred or imposed upon him in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of acts or omissions in his or her capacity as a Fiduciary hereunder, provided that such act or omission is not the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Adopting Employers may indemnify other Fiduciaries, their heirs and legal representatives, under the circumstances, and subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence, if such indemnification is determined by the Board of Directors to be in the best interests of the Adopting Employers. 13.8 Immunity from Liability. Except to the extent that section 410(a) of ERISA prohibits the granting of immunity to Fiduciaries from liability for any responsibility, obligation, or duty imposed under Title I, Subtitle B, Part 4, of said Act, an officer, Employee, member of the Board of Directors of the Employer or other person assigned responsibility under this Plan shall be immune from any liability for any action or failure to act except such action or failure to act which results from said officer's, Employee's, Participant's or other person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct. ARTICLE XIV Amendment Or Termination Of Plan 14.1 Right to Amend or Terminate Plan. The Company reserves the right at any time or times, by action of the Board of Directors, to modify, amend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, in which event a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors, authorizing such modification, amendment or termination shall be delivered to the Trustee and to the other Adopting Employers whose Employees are covered by this Plan, provided, however, that no amendment to the Plan shall be made which shall: (a) reduce any vested right or interest to which any Participant or Beneficiary is then entitled under this Plan or otherwise reduce the vested rights of a Participant in violation of section 411(d)(6) of the Code; (b) vest in the Adopting Employers any interest or control over any assets of the Trust; (c) cause any assets of the Trust to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries; or (d) change any of the rights, duties or powers of the Trustee without its written consent.
58 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section or any other provisions of this Plan, any modification or amendment of the Plan may be made retroactively if necessary or appropriate to conform the Plan with, or to satisfy the conditions of, ERISA, the Code, or any other law, governmental regulation or ruling. In the alternative, subject to the conditions prescribed in subsections (a) through (e), the Plan may be amended by an officer of the Company authorized by the Board of Directors to amend the Plan, provided, however, that any such amendment does not, in the view of such officer, materially increase costs of the Plan to the Company or any Adopting Employer. 14.2 Amendment to Vesting Schedule. Any amendment that modifies the vesting provisions of ARTICLE VI shall either: (a) provide for a rate of vesting that is at least as rapid for any Participant as the vesting schedule previously in effect; or (b) provide that any adversely affected Participant with a Period of Service of at least three (3) years may elect, in writing, to remain under the vesting schedule in effect prior to the amendment. Such election must be made within sixty (60) days after the later of the: (1) adoption of the amendment; (2) effective date of the amendment; or (3) issuance by the Administrator of written notice of the amendment. 14.3 Maintenance of Plan. The Adopting Employers have established the Plan with the bona fide intention and expectation that they will be able to make contributions indefinitely, but the Adopting Employers are not and shall not be under any obligation or liability whatsoever to continue contributions or to maintain the Plan for any given length of time. 14.4 Termination of Plan and Trust. The Plan and Trust hereby created shall terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Delivery to the Trustee of a notice of termination executed by the Company specifying the date as of which the Plan and Trust shall terminate; or (b) Adjudication of the Company as bankrupt or general assignment by the Company to or for the benefit of creditors or dissolution of the Company. 14.5 Distribution on Termination. (a)(1) If the Plan is terminated, or contributions permanently discontinued, an Adopting Employer, at its discretion, may (at that time or at any later time) direct the Trustee to distribute the amounts in a Participant's Account in accordance with the distribution provisions of the Plan. Such distribution shall, notwithstanding any prior provisions of the Plan, be made in a single lump-sum without the Participant's consent as to the timing of such distribution. If, however, an Adopting Employer (or an Affiliate) maintains another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan), then the preceding sentence shall not apply and the Adopting Employer, at its discretion, may direct such distributions to be made as a direct transfer to such other plan without the Participant's consent, if the Participant does not consent to an immediate distribution.
59 (2) If an Adopting Employer does not direct distribution under paragraph (1), each Participant's Account shall be maintained until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan (determined without regard to this section) as though the Plan had not been terminated or contributions discontinued. (b) If the Administrator determines that it is administratively impracticable to make distributions under this section in cash or that it would be in the Participant's best interest to make some or all of the distributions with in-kind property, it shall offer all Participants and Beneficiaries entitled to a distribution under this section a reasonable opportunity to elect to receive a distribution of the in-kind property being distributed by the Trust. Those Participants and Beneficiaries so electing shall receive a proportionate share of such in-kind property in the form (outright, in trust or in partnership) that the Administrator determines will provide the most feasible method of distribution. (c)(1) Amounts attributable to elective contributions shall only be distributable by reason of this section if one of the following is applicable: (A) the Plan is terminated without the establishment or maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan); (B) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition to an unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets used by the Adopting Employer in a trade or business of the Adopting Employer with respect to an Employee who continues employment with the corporation acquiring such assets; or (C) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition to an unrelated entity of the Adopting Employer's interest in a subsidiary with respect to an Employee who continues employment with such subsidiary. (2) For purposes of this subsection, the term "elective contributions" means employer contributions made to the Plan that were subject to a cash or deferred election under a cash or deferred arrangement. (3) Elective contributions are distributable under subsections (c)(1)(B) and (C) above only if the Adopting Employers continue to maintain the Plan after the disposition. ARTICLE XV Additional Provisions 15.1 Effect of Merger, Consolidation or Transfer. In the event of any merger or consolidation with or transfer of assets or liabilities to any other plan or to this Plan, each Participant of the Plan shall be entitled to a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer, which is equal to or greater than the benefit he or she would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation or transfer (if the Plan had been terminated).
60 15.2 No Assignment. (a) Except as provided herein, the right of any Participant or Beneficiary to any benefit or to any payment hereunder shall not be subject to alienation, assignment, garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of any kind. (b) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer permitted by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to regulations issued under section 401(a)(13) of the Code. (c) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (d) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer to the Trust in accordance with section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code to satisfy the Participant's liabilities to the Plan or Trust in any one or more of the following circumstances: (1) the Participant is convicted of a crime involving the Plan; (2) a civil judgment (or consent order or decree) in an action is brought against the Participant in connection with an ERISA fiduciary violation; or (3) the Participant enters into a settlement agreement with the Department of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation over an ERISA fiduciary violation. 15.3 Limitation of Rights of Employees. This Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Adopting Employers and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between any of the Adopting Employers and any Employee, or to be a consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of the employment of any Employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Employee the right to be retained in the service of any of the Adopting Employers or shall interfere with the right of any of the Adopting Employers to discharge or otherwise terminate the employment of any Employee of an Adopting Employer at any time. No Employee shall be entitled to any right or claim hereunder except to the extent such right is specifically fixed under the terms of the Plan. 15.4 Construction. The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the requirements of the Code and ERISA. Any amendment or restatement of the Plan or Trust that would otherwise violate the requirements of section 411(d)(6) of the Code or otherwise cause the Plan or Trust to cease to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Code shall be deemed to be invalid. Capitalized terms shall have meanings as defined herein. Singular nouns shall be read as plural, masculine pronouns shall be read as feminine and vice versa, as appropriate. References to "section" or "ARTICLE" shall be read as references to appropriate provisions of this Plan, unless otherwise indicated.
61 15.5 Company Determinations. Any determinations, actions or decisions of the Company (including but not limited to, Plan amendments and Plan termination) shall be made by its Board of Directors in accordance with its established procedures or by such other individuals, groups or organizations that have been properly delegated by the Board of Directors to make such determination or decision. 15.6 Continued Qualification. This Plan is amended and restated with the intent that it shall continue to qualify under sections 401(a), 401(k) and 4975(e)(7) of the Code as those sections exist at the time the Plan is amended and restated. If the Internal Revenue Service determines that the Plan does not meet those requirements as amended and restated, the Plan shall be amended retroactively as necessary to correct any such inadequacy. Section 7.2 shall not be effective until the date the Internal Revenue Service issues a favorable determination letter with respect to the Plan as amended and restated herein (including section 7.2). Until section 7.2 becomes effective in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence of this section 15.6, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Employee After-Tax Contribution Account, subject to the condition that such Participant may not make any Employee After-Tax Contributions under the Plan for at least six (6) months after receipt of the in-service withdrawal. 15.7 Governing Law.

The requirements that must be met are: (a) the Participant has had a Severance from Service; (b) the Participant, as of the Severance from Service Date, was a participant in the Account Plan; (c) the Participant is entitled to an immediate distribution of his or her accrued benefits under the Account Plan in the form of an annuity or a lump sum;
66 (d) the Participant has irrevocably elected to receive his accrued benefit under the Account Plan in the form of an immediate annuity; and (e) the Participant was not, immediately prior to such Severance from Service - (i) a union employee whose terms of employment were the subject of a collective bargaining agreement or the subject of negotiation by a labor union or other labor organization, or (ii) an employee of CAE Vanguard Inc. or CAE ScreenPlates, Inc. or any subsidiary thereof. (2) Special Distribution Rules for March 31, 1990 Account Balances: This subsection applies to Participants who had an account in the Hughes Section 401(k) Savings Plan on March 31, 1990 (a "3/31/90 Member"). In addition, the special distribution rules available to 3/31/90 Members apply solely with respect to the value of such account on the March 31, 1990 valuation date under the plan (the "3/31/90 Balance"). (a) Additional Methods of Distribution: Notwithstanding section 8.3 of the Plan, a 3/31/90 Member shall have the following additional forms of distribution elections available with respect to his 3/31/90 Balance: (i) withdrawal in a single lump sum distribution of the amount credited to the Participant's 3/31/90 Balance attributable to voluntary after-tax contributions with or without the deferral of the receipt in a single lump sum distribution of the Participant's 3/31/90 Balance attributable to pre-tax contributions and rollover contributions to a date no later than the April first (1st) following the calendar year during which the Participant attains age seventy and one-half (70-1/2); or (ii) purchase of an annuity contract from a life insurance company under tables based on unisex mortality assumptions with all or any portion of the Participant's 3/31/90 Balance and taking a single lump sum distribution with respect to any portion of such 3/31/90 Balance not applied to the purchase of the annuity. (b) Special Informational Requirement: Information showing the Participant the financial effects of the various distribution options available with respect to the 3/31/90 Balance shall be provided to the Participant at least ninety (90) days prior to the date the Participant becomes eligible for a benefit under the Plan. (c) Special Annuity Contract Requirements: The following rules shall apply with respect to any 3/31/90 Member who elects the annuity contract option: (i) The annuity contract shall provide for periodic annuity payments for the life of the 3/31/90 Member and the continuation of fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the periodic annuity payments the 3/31/90 Member was receiving (or was entitled to receive at his date of death) to the 3/31/90 Member's spouse on the date the annuity payments to the 3/31/90 Member commenced (or, if earlier, on the date of the 3/31/90 Member's death). The 3/31/90 Member may revoke such election and elect any other form of benefit; provided, however,
67 that the 3/31/90 Member may not re-elect the forms of distribution specified above for a reasonable period of time before the purchase of the annuity contract, as determined by the Administrator. Such annuity contract may not contain an "interest only option" form of distribution.

(ii) The annuity contract must provide that benefits will commence no later than the April first (1st) following the calendar year during which the Participant attains age seventy and one-half (70-1/2) and, if the spouse of the 3/31/90 Member is not the Participant's Beneficiary, payments under any periodic payment option offered under the annuity contract to such 3/31/90 Member and his Beneficiary must be completed during a period not exceeding the life expectancy of the 3/31/90 Member, or the joint life expectancy of such Participant and his Beneficiary or, if the Beneficiary is not treated as a natural person, five (5) years. The forms of distribution offered under the annuity contract must otherwise satisfy the minimum distribution requirements under the Code. (iii) An annuity contract that does not provide for immediate payment of benefits must provide for all other forms of distribution then available to the 3/31/90 Member under the Plan at all times prior to the commencement of benefit payments under such contract. (iv) The annuity contract option shall be available to any 3/31/90 Member with respect to any portion of his 3/31/90 Balance that he has elected to defer. (v) Any 3/31/90 Member who elects the annuity contract option shall have the annuity contract distributed to him in lieu of cash or other property for the portion of his 3/31/90 Balance that was applied to the purchase of the annuity contract.

Such amount shall be calculated in accordance with the formula specified in 29 CFR Section 4.175 as follows: The total amount contributed for a month, calendar or contract quarter, or other specified time is divided by the total hours worked under the contract by service employees subject to the Act during the period in question to determine an hourly contribution rate. The difference between the contribution rate required in the determination and the actual contribution may be contributed to the Plan on behalf of each Eligible Employee for purposes of fulfilling the Employer's fringe benefit obligations under the Service Contract Act.

In determining whether to accept such a transfer, the Administrator shall consider the administrative inconvenience engendered by such a transfer and any risks to the continued qualification of the Plan under section 401(a) of the Code. Acceptance of any such transfer shall not preclude the Administrator from refusing any such subsequent transfers. (b) Any transfer of assets accepted under this subsection shall be separately accounted for at all times and shall remain subject to the provisions of the transferor plan (as it existed at the time of such transfer) to the extent required by section 411(d)(6) of the Code (including, but not limited to, any rights to qualified joint and survivor annuities and qualified preretirement survivor annuities) as if such provisions were part of the Plan.

(e) In calculating the Actual Contribution Percentage for purposes of section 401(m), the actual contribution ratio of a Highly Compensated Employee will be determined by treating all plans subject to section 401(m) under which the Highly Compensated Employee is eligible (other than those that may not be permissively aggregated) as a single plan. (f) For purposes of determining whether a plan satisfies the Actual Deferral Percentage test of section 401(k), all elective contributions that are made under two (2) or more plans that are aggregated for purposes of section 401(a)(4) or 410(b) (other than section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii)) are to be treated as made under a single plan and that if two (2) or more plans are permissively aggregated for purposes of section 401(k), the aggregated plans must also satisfy sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single plan. (g) In calculating the Actual Deferral Percentage for purposes of section 401(k), the actual deferral ratio of a Highly Compensated Employee will be determined by treating all cash or deferred arrangements under which the Highly Compensated Employee is eligible (other than those that may not be permissively aggregated) as a single arrangement. (h) An elective contribution will be taken into account under the Actual Deferral Percentage test of section 401(k)(3)(A) of the Code for a Plan Year only if it is allocated to the Employee as of a date within that Plan Year. For this purpose, an elective contribution is considered allocated as of a date within a Plan Year if the allocation is not contingent on participation or performance of services after such date and the elective contribution is actually paid to the Trust no later than twelve (12) months after the Plan Year to which the contribution relates. 4.9 Correction of Excess Contributions.

Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any remaining Qualified Nonelective Contributions thereafter shall be allocated to the Participant with the next lowest Compensation for that Plan Year. This allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated.

(3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of such Plan Year. (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for which such contribution is made.

Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any) attributable to such amounts, as determined by the Administrator. (e) (1) The Administrator may recharacterize any or all Excess Contributions for a Plan Year as Employee contributions in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Any Excess Contributions that are so recharacterized shall be treated as if the Participant had elected to instead receive cash Compensation on the earliest date that any Payroll Reduction Contribution made on behalf of the Participant during the Plan Year would have been received had the Participant originally elected to receive such amount in cash and then contributed such amount as an Employee contribution. To the extent required by the Internal Revenue Service, however, such recharacterized Excess Contributions shall continue to be treated as if such amounts were not recharacterized. (2) The Administrator shall report any recharacterized Excess Contributions as Employee contributions to the Internal Revenue Service and to the affected Participants at such times and in accordance with such procedures as are required by the Internal Revenue Service. The Administrator shall take such other actions regarding the amounts so recharacterized as may be required by the Internal Revenue Service.
21 (3) Excess Contributions may not be recharacterized under this subsection more than two and one-half (2 1/2) months after the close of the Plan Year to which the recharacterization relates. Recharacterization is deemed to occur when the Participant is so notified (as required by the Internal Revenue Service). (4) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed or recharacterized shall be reduced by excess deferrals previously distributed for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable year. (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. In the event of the termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12) months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection. The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an Excess Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. (2)(A) The income allocable to Excess Contributions distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property, appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts, and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been realized. (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion, determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set forth in subparagraph (C). (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year allocable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Contributions by the Participant for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the total Account balance of the Participant attributable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by any Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by the Participant for the Plan Year.
22 (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the Participant's subaccounts in the following order: (A) from the Participant's Payroll Reduction Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Elective Deferrals); (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Qualified Nonelective Contributions); and (C) from the Participant's Company Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Company Contributions). (g)(1) The term "Excess Contribution" shall mean, with respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the Elective Deferrals (including any Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Matching Contributions that are treated as Elective Deferrals under sections 401(k)(2) and 401(k)(3) of the Code) on behalf of eligible Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year over the maximum amount of such contributions permitted under sections 401(k)(2) and 401(k)(3) of the Code. (2) Any distribution of Excess Contributions for a Plan Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee. (3) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed or recharacterized shall be reduced by Excess Deferrals previously distributed for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable year. 4.10 Correction of Excess Deferrals. (a) Excess Deferrals shall be corrected as provided in this section. The Administrator may also prevent anticipated Excess Deferrals as provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines in its sole discretion. A distribution of an Excess Deferral under this section may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 402(g) of the Code. (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant. (c) (1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Deferrals to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made before the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this subsection include income allocable to the Excess Distribution so distributed, as determined under this subsection.
23 (2) Distribution under this subsection shall only be made if all the following conditions are satisfied: (A) the Participant seeking the distribution designates the distribution as an Excess Deferral; (B) the distribution is made after the date the Excess Deferral is received by the Plan; and (C) the Plan designates the distribution as a distribution of an Excess Deferral. (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral distributed under this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as under subsection (d)(3), except that income shall only be determined for the period from the beginning of the Applicable Taxable Year to the date on which the distribution is made. (d)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Deferrals to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made after the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distribution under this subsection shall only be made if the Participant timely provides the notice required under subsection (d)(2) and such distribution is made after the Applicable Taxable Year and before the first April 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this subsection shall include income allocable to the Excess Deferrals so distributed, as determined under this subsection. (2) Any Participant seeking a distribution of an Excess Deferral in accordance with this subsection must notify the Administrator of such request no later than the first March 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. The Administrator may agree to accept notification received after such date (but before the first April 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable Year) if it determines that it would still be administratively practicable to make such distribution in view of the delayed notification. The notification required by this subsection shall be deemed made if a Participant's Elective Deferrals to the Plan in any Plan Year create an Excess Deferral. (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral distributed under this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as under section 4.9(f)(2), except that the term "Excess Deferrals" shall be substituted for "Excess Contributions" and the term "Applicable Taxable Year" shall be substituted for "Plan Year." The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. (e) The following terms shall have the meanings specified: (1) Applicable Taxable Year. The taxable year (for federal income tax purposes)of the Participant in which an Excess Deferral must be included in gross income (when made) in accordance with section 402(g) of the Code.
24 (2) Excess Deferral. A Participant's Elective Deferrals (and other contributions limited by section 402(g) of the Code), for an Applicable Taxable Year that are in excess of the limits imposed by section 402(g) of the Code for such Applicable Taxable Year. 4.11 Correction of Excess Aggregate Contributions. (a) Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be corrected as provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code. (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed to a Participant. (c) (1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to contribute, as provided in section 4.1(b), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution in an amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8. (2) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall only be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly Compensated Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any remaining Qualified Nonelective contributions thereafter shall be allocated to the Participant with the next lowest compensation for that Plan Year. This allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be proportional. (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of such Plan Year. (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for which such contribution is made. (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased), any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions allocable to that Participant's Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan. Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any) attributable to such amounts, as determined by the Administrator. (e)(1) The Administrator may forfeit any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. The amounts so forfeited shall not include any amounts that are nonforfeitable under section 6.5.
25 (2) Any forfeitures under this subsection shall be made in accordance with the procedures for distributions under subsection (f) except that such amounts shall be forfeited instead of being distributed. (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. Such distributions shall be specifically designated by the Administrator as a distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions. In the event of the complete termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12) months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection. The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an Excess Aggregate Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. (2)(A)The income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property, appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts, and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been realized. (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion, determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set forth in subparagraph (C). (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year allocable to employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching contributions by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the total Account balance of the Participant attributable to employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching contributions as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by the employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year. (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the Participant's subaccounts in the following order: (A) from the Participant's Employee After-Tax Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Employee After-Tax Contributions);
26 (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Qualified Nonelective Contributions); and (C) from the Participant's Company Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Company Contributions). (g) (1) The term "Excess Aggregate Contribution" shall mean, with respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the aggregate amount of the matching contributions and employee contributions (including any Qualified Nonelective Contributions or elective deferrals taken into account in computing the Actual Contribution Percentage) actually made on behalf of eligible Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year over the maximum amount of such contributions permitted under section 401(m)(2)(A) of the Code. (2) The terms "employee contributions" and "matching contributions" shall, for purposes of this section, have the meanings set forth in Treas. Reg. Section 1.401(m)-1(f). (3) Any distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee. 4.12 Correction of Multiple Use. (a) If the limitations of Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-2 are exceeded for any Plan Year, then correction shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this section. This section shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code. (b) Any correction required by this section shall be calculated and administered in accordance with the provisions for correcting Excess Contributions (in section 4.9), Excess Aggregate Contributions (in section 4.11) or both, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion. Any correction required by this section, to the extent possible, shall be made only with respect to those Highly Compensated Employees who are eligible in both the arrangement subject to section 401(k) of the Code and the Plan, as subject to section 401(m) of the Code. ARTICLE V Investment of Accounts 5.1 Election of Investment Funds. (a) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) below, upon enrollment in the Plan, each Participant shall direct that the funds in the Participant's Account be invested in increments of one percent (1%) in one or more of the investment options designated by the Administrator, which may include designated investment funds, specific investments or both. The investment choices made available shall be sufficient to allow compliance with section 404(c) of ERISA.
27 (b) Except as otherwise prescribed in Exhibit C to this Plan, Matching Contributions made with respect to Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 1999 must be invested in Common Stock until the beginning of the fifth (5th) Plan Year following the Plan Year for which such contributions are made. Thereafter, a Participant may designate the investment of the Matching Contribution funds in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the five-year restriction prescribed in this subsection (b) shall no longer apply immediately following a Participant's Severance from Service or on or after January 1 of the calendar year in which a Participant attains age 55. (c) Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, amounts held in a Participant's ESOP Contribution Account shall be invested in Common Stock. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Participant who has attained age 55 and completed a Period of Participation of at least ten (10) years shall be permitted to direct that up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole integer) allocated to the Participant's ESOP Contribution Account as of the December 31 immediately preceding each Plan Year during the Qualified Election Period may be invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above. With respect to a qualified Participant's final diversification election, fifty percent (50%) is substituted for twenty-five percent (25%) in determining the amount subject to the diversification election. Any direction to diversify hereunder may be made within 90 days after the close of each Plan Year during the Participant's Qualified Election Period, as defined below. Any direction made during the applicable 90-day period following any Plan Year may be revoked or modified at any time during such 90-day period. The diversification of the ESOP Contribution Account as provided herein shall be made through the sale by the Trustee of the number of shares of Common Stock directed by the Participant. The amount that may be invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan shall be equal to the proceeds of such sale. Any such diversification shall be implemented no later than the 180th day of the Plan Year in which the Participant's direction is made. All such directions shall be in accordance with any notice, rulings, or regulations or other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to section 401(a)(28)(B) of the Code. For the purposes of this section, the term "Qualified Election Period" shall mean the six (6) Plan Year period beginning with the later of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 55 or completes a Period of Participation of ten (10) years. (d) Notwithstanding subsection (e) below, the Administrator shall maintain a General Motors Class H Stock Fund ("Fund H") and Raytheon Company Class A Stock Fund ("Fund I") as investment options under the Plan, subject to the limitations prescribed in this subsection (d), for four (4) complete Plan Years following the Effective Date; provided, however, that if at any time prior to the expiration of such four (4) year period, the aggregate fair market value of the assets invested in either Fund H or Fund I falls below five percent (5%) of the highest fair market value of the assets invested in Fund H or Fund I, respectively, the Administrator may, with six (6) months
28 written notice to affected Participants, eliminate Fund H or Fund I, as applicable, as investment options under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may eliminate one or both funds at any time if the Administrator determines in good faith that such elimination is necessary under applicable law (including without limitation the prudence requirements of ERISA). When Fund H and Fund I are eliminated in accordance with this section 5.1(d), Participants with assets invested in Fund H or Fund I, as applicable, shall direct the transfer of such assets to other funds available under the Plan or, if no such election is made, the Administrator shall transfer such assets to a low risk fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its discretion. The only assets that may be invested in Fund H or Fund I are the General Motors Class H Stock Fund and Raytheon Company Class A Stock Fund, respectively, directly transferred to the Plan in connection with the mergers identified in Section 1.1(b). A Participant may not direct that any other funds in the Participant's Account be invested in Fund H or Fund I. (e) In its discretion, the Administrator may from time to time designate new funds and, where appropriate, preclude investment in existing funds and provide for the transfer of Accounts invested in those funds to other funds selected by the Participant or, if no such election is made, to a low risk fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its discretion. (f) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above, a Participant's investment election will apply to the entire Account of the Participant. (g) In establishing rules and procedures under section 5.1, the following shall apply: (1) Each Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee shall affirmatively elect to self-direct the investment of assets in his or her Account, but such election may provide for default investments in the absence of specific directions from such Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee. (2) The investment directions of a Participant shall continue to apply after that Participant's death or incompetence until the Beneficiary (or, if there is more than one Beneficiary for that Account, all of the Beneficiaries), guardian or other representatives provide contrary direction. (3) The Administrator may decline to implement investment designations if such investment, in the Administrator's judgment: (A) would result in a prohibited transaction under section 4975 of the Code; (B) would generate income taxable to the Trust Fund; (C) would not be in accordance with the Plan and Trust;
29 (D) would cause a Fiduciary to maintain the indicia of ownership of any assets of the Trust Fund outside the jurisdiction of the district courts of the United States other than as permitted by section 404(b) of ERISA and Labor Reg. ss.2550.404(b)-1; (E) would jeopardize the Plan's tax qualified status under the Code; (F) could result in a loss in excess of the amount credited to the Account; or (G) would violate any other requirements of the Code or ERISA. (4) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above, the Administrator may establish reasonable restrictions on the frequency with which investment directions may be given, consistent with section 404(c) of ERISA. (5) The Administrator may establish limits on the use of brokers, investment counsel or other advisors that may be utilized, including specifying that all investments must be made through a designated broker or brokers. (6) The Administrator may establish limits on the types of investments that are permitted. (h) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above, the Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as may be advisable or necessary to carry out the provisions of this section, with such rules and procedures being consistent with section 404(c) of ERISA. (i) The Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as may be advisable or necessary to reasonably ensure that all transactions involving the investment funds comply with all applicable laws, including the securities laws. 5.2 Change in Investment Allocation of Future Deferrals. Except as otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect to change the investment allocation of future contributions effective as of the first Trade Day subsequent to notice to the Recordkeeper by which it is administratively feasible to make such change. Any changes must be made either in increments of one percent (1%) of the Participant's Account or in a specified whole dollar amount and must result in a total investment of one hundred percent (100%) of the Participant's Account.
30 5.3 Transfer of Account Balances Between Investment Funds. Except as otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect to transfer all or a portion of the amount in his or her Account between investment funds effective as of the first Trade Day following notice to the Recordkeeper by which it is administratively feasible to carry out such transfer. In determining the amount of the transfer, the Participant's Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the next Trade Day. Such transfers must be made in either one percent (1%) increments of the entire Account or in a specified amount in whole dollars and, as of the completion of the transfer, must result in investment of one hundred percent (100%) of the Account. Transfers shall be effected by telephone notice to the Recordkeeper. 5.4 Ownership Status of Funds. The Trustee shall be the owner of record of the Plan assets. The Administrator shall have records maintained as of the Valuation Date for each investment option allocating a portion of the investment option to each Participant who has elected that his or her Account be invested in such investment option. The records shall reflect each Participant's portion of Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock and General Motors Class H common stock in cash and unitized shares of stock and shall reflect each Participant's portion of all other investment options as may be established by the Administrator in a cash amount. 5.5 Voting Rights. Participants whose Accounts are invested in Common Stock or Raytheon Company Class A common stock on the last business day of the second month preceding the record date (the "Voting Eligibility Date") for any meeting of stockholders have the right to instruct the Trustee as to voting at such meeting. The number of votes is determined by dividing the value of the shares in the Participant's Account by the closing price of the respective classes of stock on the Voting Eligibility Date. If the Trustee has not received instructions from a Participant as to voting of shares within a specified time, then the Trustee shall not vote those shares. If a Participant furnishes the Trustee with a signed vote direction card without indicating a voting choice thereon, the Trustee shall vote the Participant's shares as recommended by management. In addition, each Participant shall have the right to accept or reject any tender or exchange offer for shares of the respective classes of stock. The Trustee shall vote (or tender or exchange) all combined fractional shares of the respective classes of stock to the extent possible in the same proportion as the shares which have been voted (or tendered or exchanged) by each Participant. Any instructions as to voting (or tender or exchange) received from an individual Participant shall be held in confidence by the Trustee and shall not be divulged to the Adopting Employers or to any officer or employee thereof or to any other person.
31 5.6 Allocation of Earnings. (a)(1) The Administrator, as of each Valuation Date, shall adjust the amounts credited to the Accounts (including Accounts for persons who are no longer Employees) so that the total of such Account balances equals the fair market value of the Trust Fund assets as of such Valuation Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, any changes in the fair market value of the Trust Fund assets since the preceding Valuation Date shall be charged or credited to each Account in the ratio that the balance in each such Account as of the preceding Valuation Date bears to the balances in all Accounts as of that Valuation Date with appropriate adjustments to reflect any distributions, allocations or similar adjustments to such Account or Accounts since that Valuation Date. (2) To the extent that separate investment funds are established (as provided in section 5.1(a)), the adjustments required by subsection (a)(1) shall be made by applying subsection (a)(1) separately for each such investment fund so that any changes in the net worth of each such investment fund are charged or credited to the portion of each Account invested in such investment fund in the ratio that the portion of each such Account invested in such investment fund as of the preceding Valuation Date (reduced by any distributions made from that portion of such Account since that Valuation Date) bears to the total amount credited to such investment funds as of that Valuation Date (reduced by distributions made from such investment fund since that Valuation Date). (3) Interim valuations, in accordance with the foregoing procedure, may be made at such time or times as the Administrator directs. (b) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, direct the Trustee to segregate and separately invest any Trust Fund assets. If any assets are segregated in this fashion, the earnings or losses on such assets shall be determined apart from other Trust assets and shall be adjusted on each Valuation Date, or at such other times as the Administrator deems necessary, in accordance with this section. ARTICLE VI Vesting 6.1 Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover Contribution and Qualified Nonelective Contribution Accounts. Each Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to all amounts in the Participant's Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover Contribution and Qualified Nonelective Contribution Accounts. 6.2 Matching, ESOP and Employer Contribution Accounts. Except as otherwise prescribed in Exhibit C to this Plan, each Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to his or her entire Account, including the Participant's Matching, ESOP and Employer Contribution Accounts.
32 6.3 Forfeitures. (a) In the event that a Participant incurs a Severance from Service before attaining a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching, ESOP or Employer Contributions, the Matching, ESOP or Employer Contribution Accounts will be forfeited as of the first day of the month immediately following the earliest of: (i) the date on which the Participant incurs a Period of Severance of five (5) consecutive years; (ii) death; or (iii) the date on which the Participant's Elective Deferral Account is distributed in accordance with ARTICLE VIII. Forfeitures of Matching, ESOP or Employer Contributions will be used to reduce future contributions of the Adopting Employers to the Plan. (b) If, in connection with his or her Severance from Service, a Participant received a distribution of a portion of his or her entire Account when he or she did not have a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching, ESOP or Employer Contribution Account, the Matching, ESOP or Employer Contributions that were forfeited, unadjusted by any subsequent gains or losses, shall be restored if he or she again becomes an Employee before incurring a Period of Severance of five (5) consecutive years. 6.4 Break in Service Rules (a) Periods of Service. In determining the length of a Period of Service, the Administrator shall include all Periods of Service, except the following Periods of Service shall not be taken into account: (1) in the case of a Participant who has never had a vested account balance, the Period of Service before any Period of Severance which equals or exceeds five (5) consecutive years; and (2) in the case of a Participant who has had a vested account balance and who has incurred a Period of Severance which equals or exceeds five (5) years, the Period of Service after such Period of Severance shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the nonforfeitable interest of such Participant in the Matching or ESOP Contributions allocated to his or her Account before such Period of Severance. (b) Periods of Severance. In determining the length of a Period of Service, the Administrator shall include any period of time beginning on an Employee's Severance from Service Date and ending on the date on which he or she is next credited with an Hour of Service, provided that such Hour of Service is credited within the twelve- (12) consecutive month period following such Severance from Service Date. (c) Other Periods. In making the determinations described in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the second, third, and fourth consecutive years of a Layoff (from the first anniversary of the last day paid to the fourth anniversary of the last day paid) and any period in excess of one (1) year of an Authorized Leave of Absence shall be regarded as neither a Period of Service nor a Period of Severance.
33 ARTICLE VII In-Service Withdrawals 7.1 Elective Deferrals and Qualified Nonelective Contributions. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Elective Deferral Account or Qualified Nonelective Contribution Account either (1) on or after attainment of age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2), or (2) in the event of a hardship. (b) In order to be entitled to a hardship withdrawal under this section, a Participant must satisfy the requirements of both subsection (c) and subsection (d). Whether a Participant is entitled to a withdrawal under this section is to be determined by the Administrator in accordance with nondiscriminatory and objective standards. (c) (1) A Participant will be deemed to have experienced an immediate and heavy financial need necessary to satisfy the requirements of this subsection if the withdrawal is on account of: (A) medical expenses described in section 213(d) of the Code incurred by the Participant, the Participant's spouse or any dependents of the Participant; (B) the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal resident of the Participant; (C) payment of tuition for the next twelve (12) months of post-secondary education for the Participant or his or her spouse, children or dependents; or (D) the need to prevent the eviction of the Participant from his or her principal residence or the foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal residence. (2) The Administrator may, on the basis of such evidence it deems relevant, determine that the Participant has experienced an immediate and heavy financial need for reasons other than those enumerated above in this subsection. (d)(1) A withdrawal under this subsection will be deemed necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant if it satisfies the requirements of this subsection. To the extent the amount of the withdrawal would be in excess of the amount required to relieve the financial need of the Participant or to the extent such need may be satisfied from other resources that are reasonably available to the Participant, such withdrawal shall not satisfy the requirements of this subsection. For purposes of this subsection, a Participant's resources shall be deemed to include those assets of his or her spouse or minor children that are reasonably available to the Participant.
34 (2) A withdrawal may be treated as necessary to satisfy a financial need if the Administrator reasonably relies upon the Participant's representation that the need cannot be relieved: (A) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise; (B) by reasonable liquidation of the Participant's assets to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause an immediate and heavy financial need; (C) by cessation of Elective Deferrals under the Plan for at least twelve (12) months after receipt of the hardship withdrawal; or (D) by other distributions or nontaxable (at the time of the loan) loans from plans maintained by the Adopting Employers or by any other employer or by borrowing from commercial sources on reasonable commercial terms. (e) If a Participant receives a withdrawal for reasons of financial hardship, the Participant's Elective Deferrals shall be reduced to four percent (4%) (or such lower percentage as the Participant shall thereafter designate), if in excess thereof as of the date of the distribution, and shall not be increased during the twelve (12) months immediately subsequent to the date of distribution. 7.2 Employee After-Tax Contributions.

Distributions shall comply with the regulations under section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(a)(9)-2. The provisions of the Plan reflecting section 401(a)(9) of the Code override any distribution provisions in the Plan inconsistent with section 401(a)(9) of the Code. 8.2 Commencement of Benefits. (a) A Participant (or Beneficiary) shall be entitled to a distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of his or her Account upon Severance from Service (or if earlier, an event described in subsections (e)(3), (4) and (5)).

36 (c) If the value of the nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account exceeds the maximum amount prescribed in section 411(a)(11) of the Code, then payment to the Participant shall not commence without the Participant's written consent, except as otherwise required by Section 8.2(f). Such written consent must be obtained no more than ninety (90) days before the commencement of the distribution. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this subsection (c), all distributions to a Participant's Beneficiary shall commence within a reasonable period of time following the Participant's death (no consent of the Beneficiary is required). (d) Unless a Participant elects otherwise, distribution to the Participant shall commence no later than sixty (60) days after the close of the Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occurs: (1) attainment by the Participant of Normal Retirement Age; (2) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which Participant commenced participation in the Plan; or (3) Participant's Severance from Service. (e) Distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of a Participant's Account attributable to Elective Deferrals and Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall generally commence in accordance with the general provisions of this section 8.2, but in no event before the earliest of: (1) the Participant's Severance from Service; (2) the Participant's attainment of age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2); (3) the termination of the Plan without establishment or maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan); (4) the disposition of substantially all of the assets used by the Employer in a trade or business of the Employer but only with respect to an Employee who continues employment with the entity acquiring such assets; (5) the disposition of the Employer's interest in a subsidiary, but only with respect to an Employee who continues employment with such subsidiary. (f) A Participant who has attained age seventy and one-half (70 1/2) and is subject to the mandatory distribution requirements of section 401(a)(9) of the Code shall receive a lump sum distribution of his or her entire Account at the time distributions must commence in order to comply with such requirements. If additional amounts are allocated to such Participant's Account following such lump sum distribution, additional lump sum distributions of his or her entire Account shall be made at such times any mandatory distributions are required to comply with section 401(a)(9) of the Code. Such payments shall be made notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Plan or election made by such Participant.
37 (g) If a Participant dies before the time when distribution is considered to have commenced in accordance with applicable regulations, then any remaining nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account shall be distributed within five (5) years after the Participant's death. If a distribution is considered to have commenced in accordance with the applicable regulations before the Participant's death, the remaining nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of the Participant's death. 8.3 Form of Distribution. (a) Distributions under the Plan shall be made only in the form of a single, lump-sum payment of the entire nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account. (b) Distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account that is invested in Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock (if any) or General Motors Class H common stock (if any) shall be made in cash or in-kind, at the election of the Participant (or Beneficiary). All other distributions under the Plan shall be made in cash (or cash equivalent). 8.4 Determination of Amount of Distribution. In determining the amount of any distribution hereunder, the nonforfeitable portion of a Participant's Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the telephone notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the next Trade Day. 8.5 Direct Rollovers. (a) A Participant may elect that all or any portion of a distribution that would otherwise be paid as an Eligible Rollover Distribution shall instead be transferred as a Direct Rollover. (b) The Administrator shall determine and apply rules and procedures as it deems reasonable with respect to Direct Rollovers. The Administrator may change such rules and procedures from time to time and shall not be bound by any previous rules and procedures it has applied. (c) The following terms shall have the meanings specified: (1) Direct Rollover. An available distribution that is paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan for the benefit of the distributee. (2) Distributee. A Participant or former Participant.

An individual retirement account described in section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity (other than an endowment contract) described in section 408(b) of the Code, a qualified trust described in section 401(a) of the Code if such qualified trust is part of a plan that permits acceptance of Direct Rollovers or an annuity plan described in section 403(a) of the Code. In the case of a Direct Rollover for the benefit of the spouse or former spouse of a Participant, the term "Eligible Retirement Plan" shall only include an individual retirement account described in section 408(a) of the Code and an individual retirement annuity (other than an endowment contract) described in section 408(b) of the Code. (4) Eligible Rollover Distribution. Any distribution under the Plan to a Participant, a Participant's spouse or a Participant's former spouse, except for the following: (A) Any distribution to the extent the distribution is required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code. (B) The portion of any distribution that is not includable in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation described in section 402(e)(4) of the Code). (C) Returns of elective deferrals described in Treas. Reg. ss.1.415-6(b)(6)(iv) that are returned as a result of the limitations under section 415 of the Code.

Reg. ss.1.401(k)-1(f)(4) and ss.1.402(g)-1(e)(3), respectively, and corrective distributions of excess aggregate contributions as described in Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-1(e)(3), together with the income allocable to these corrective distributions.

(a) The Administrator shall provide Participants or other Distributees of Eligible Rollover Distributions with a written notice designed to comply with the requirements of section 402(f) of the Code. Such notice shall be provided within a reasonable period of time before making an Eligible Rollover Distribution.
39 (b) Any elections concerning the payment of benefits under this ARTICLE shall be made on a form prescribed by the Administrator. The Participant or other Distributee shall submit a completed form to the Administrator at least thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled to commence, unless the Administrator agrees to a shorter time period. Any election made under this section shall be revocable until thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled to commence. (c) An election to have payment made in a Direct Rollover shall only be valid if the Participant or other Distributee provides adequate information to the Administrator for the implementation of such Direct Rollover and such reasonable verification as the Administrator may require that the transferee is an Eligible Retirement Plan. 8.7 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan, payments shall be made in accordance with any judgment, decree or order determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (b) (1) If the Plan receives a Domestic Relations Order, the Administrator shall promptly notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee of the receipt of such order and of the Plan's procedures for determining whether such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. The Administrator shall, within a reasonable period after receipt of such order, determine whether it is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee of that determination. (2) During any period in which the issue of whether a Domestic Relations Order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order is being determined, the Administrator shall separately account for the amounts that would have been payable to the Alternate Payee during such period if the order had been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (c) (1) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of this subsection only if such order clearly specifies the following: (A) the name and last known mailing address (if any) of the Participant and the name and mailing address of each Alternate Payee covered by the order; (B) the amount or the percentage of the Participant's benefits to be paid by the Plan to each such Alternate Payee or the manner in which such amount or percentage is to be determined; (C) the number of payments or period to which such order applies; and (D) each plan to which such order applies.
40 (2) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of this subsection only if such order does not: (A) require the Plan to provide any type or form of benefit or any option not otherwise provided under the Plan; (B) require the Plan to provide increased benefits (determined on the basis of actuarial value); and (C) does not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee that is required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under another order previously determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (d) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing to meet the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order requires that payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee: (1) in the case of any payment before a Participant has separated from service, on or after the date on which the Participant attains (or would have attained) the Earliest Retirement Date; (2) as if the Participant had retired on the date on which such payment is to begin under such order (but taking into account only the present value of the benefits actually accrued and not taking into account the present value of any employer subsidy for early retirement); and (3) in any form in which such benefits may be paid under the Plan to the Participant (other than in the form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity with respect to the Alternate Payee and his or her subsequent spouse). (e) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing to meet the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order requires that payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee at a date before the Participant is entitled to receive a distribution. Such distribution shall be made to such Alternate Payee notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan. (f) The following terms shall have the meanings specified: (1) Alternate Payee. Any spouse, former spouse, child or other dependent of a Participant who is recognized by a Domestic Relations Order as having a right to benefits under the Plan with respect to such Participant. (2) Domestic Relations Order. A judgment, decree or order relating to child support, alimony or marital property rights, as defined in section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code. (3) Earliest Retirement Date. The earlier of: (A) the date on which the Participant is entitled to a distribution under the Plan; or
41 (B) the later of: (i) the date the Participant attains age fifty (50); or (ii) the earliest date on which the Participant could begin receiving benefits under the Plan if the Participant separated from service. (4) Qualified Domestic Relations Order. A Domestic Relations Order that satisfies the requirements of subsection (c) and section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code. (g) If an Alternate Payee entitled to payment under this section is the spouse or former spouse of a Participant and payment will otherwise be made in an Eligible Rollover Distribution, then such spouse or former spouse may elect that all, or any portion, of such payment shall instead be transferred as a Direct Rollover. Such Direct Rollover shall be governed by the requirements of section 8.5. (h) If a Domestic Relations Order directs that payment be made to an Alternate Payee before the Participant's Earliest Retirement Date and such Domestic Relations Order otherwise qualifies as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, then the Domestic Relations Order shall be treated as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and such payment shall be made to the Alternate Payee, even though the Participant is not entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan because he or she continues to be an Employee of the Employer. (i) This section shall be interpreted and administered in accordance with section 414(p) of the Code. 8.8 Designation of Beneficiary. (a) A Participant may designate a Beneficiary (including successive or contingent Beneficiaries) in accordance with this section 8.8. Such designation shall be on a form prescribed by the Administrator, may include successive or contingent Beneficiaries, shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrator and shall comply with such additional conditions and requirements as the Administrator shall prescribe. The interest of any person as Beneficiary shall automatically cease on his or her death and any further payments from the Plan shall be made to the next successive or contingent Beneficiary. (b) A Participant may change his or her Beneficiary designation from time to time, without the consent or knowledge of any previously designated Beneficiary, by filing a new Beneficiary designation form with the Administrator in accordance with subsection (a). (c) If a Participant dies without a designated Beneficiary surviving, the person or persons in the following class of successive beneficiaries surviving, any testamentary devise or bequest to the contrary notwithstanding, shall be deemed to be the Participant's Beneficiary: the Participant's (1) spouse, (2) children and issue of deceased children by right
42 of representation, (3) parents, (4) brothers and sisters and issue of deceased brothers and sisters by right of representation, or (5) executors or administrators. If no Beneficiary can be located during the period of seven (7) years from the date of death, the Participant's Account shall be treated in the same manner as a forfeiture under section 6.3(a). (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, if a Participant is married at the time of his or her death, such Participant shall be deemed to have designated his or her surviving spouse as Beneficiary, unless such Participant has filed a Beneficiary designation under subsection (a) and such spouse has consented in writing to the election (acknowledging the effect of the election and specifically acknowledging the nonspouse Beneficiary) and such consent was witnessed by either the Administrator (or its delegate) or a notary public. Such consent shall not be required if the Participant does not have a spouse or the spouse cannot be located. Such consent shall not be required if the Participant is legally separated from his or her spouse or the Participant has been abandoned (under applicable local law) and the Participant has a court order to such effect, unless a Qualified Domestic Relations Order provides otherwise. If the Participant's spouse is legally incompetent to give consent, the spouse's legal guardian (even if the guardian is the Participant) may give consent. 8.9 Lost Participant or Beneficiary. (a) All Participants and Beneficiaries shall have the obligation to keep the Administrator informed of their current address until such time as all benefits due have been paid. (b) If any amount is payable to a Participant or Beneficiary who cannot be located to receive such payment, such amount may, at the discretion of the Administrator, be forfeited; provided, however, that if such Participant or Beneficiary subsequently claims the forfeited amount, it shall be reinstated and paid to such Participant or Beneficiary. Such reinstatement may, in the Administrator's sole discretion, be made from contributions by one or more Adopting Employers, forfeitures or Trust earnings, and shall be treated as a special allocation that supersedes the normal allocation rules. (c) If the Administrator has not, after due diligence, located a Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to payment within three (3) years after the Participant's Severance from Service, then, at the discretion of the Administrator, such person may be presumed deceased for purposes of this Plan. Any such presumption of death shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties. 8.10 Payments to Incompetents. If a Participant or Beneficiary entitled to receive any benefits hereunder is adjudicated to be legally incapable of giving valid receipt and discharge for such benefits, the benefits may be paid to the duly authorized personal representative of such Participant or Beneficiary.
43 8.11 Offsets. Any transfers or payments made from a Participant's Account to a person other than the Participant pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall reduce the Participant's Account and offset any amounts otherwise due to such Participant. Such transfers or payments shall not be considered a forfeiture for purposes of the Plan. 8.12 Income Tax Withholding. To the extent required by section 3405 of the Code, distributions and withdrawals from the Plan shall be subject to federal income tax withholding. ARTICLE IX Loans 9.1 Availability of Loans. Participants may borrow against all or a portion of the nonforfeitable balance in the Participant's Account, subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE. Participants who have incurred a Severance from Service will not be eligible for a Plan loan. 9.2 Minimum Amount of Loan. No loan of less than five hundred dollars ($500) will be permitted. 9.3 Maximum Amount of Loan. No loan in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance will be permitted. In addition, limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code and any other requirements of applicable statute or regulation will be applied. Under the current requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, a loan cannot exceed the lesser of one-half (1/2) of the value of the Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance or fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) reduced by the excess of (a) the highest outstanding balance of loans from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day before the date on which such loan was made over (b) the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan on the date on which such loan was made. 9.4 Effective Date of Loans. Loans will be effective as specified in the Administrator's rules then in effect. 9.5 Repayment Schedule. The Participant may select a repayment schedule of one, two, three, four or five (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) years. If the loan is used to acquire any dwelling which, within a reasonable time is to be used (determined at the time the loan is made) as the principal residence of the Participant, the repayment period may be extended up to fifteen (15) years at the election of the Participant. All repayments will be made through payroll deductions in accordance with the loan agreement executed at the time the loan is made, except that, in the event of the sale of all or a portion of the business of the Employer or one of the Adopting Employers, or other unusual circumstances, the Administrator, through uniform and equitable rules, may establish other means of repayment. The loan agreement will permit repayment of the entire outstanding balance in one lump-sum and the repayment of any portion of the outstanding balance at any time (with appropriate adjustment to the remaining payment schedule as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis). The repayment schedule shall provide for substantially level amortization of the loan. Loan repayments will be suspended under this Plan as permitted under section 414(u) of the Code.
44 9.6 Limit on Number of Loans. Except as otherwise provided herein, no more than two (2) loans may be outstanding at any time. If a Participant has more than two (2) loans outstanding on January 1, 1999, or thereafter on account of a transfer of assets from another plan in accordance with section 4.5, the Participant may not obtain a new loan until he or she has less than two (2) loans outstanding. The Administrator may, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, alter the requirements of this section 9.6, or sections 9.3 or 9.5. 9.7 Interest Rate. The interest rate for a loan pursuant to this ARTICLE will be equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day in December, March, June and September of each year. The rate published on the first business day in December will apply to loans which are made at any time during the period January 1 through March 31; the rate published on the first business day of March will apply to loans which are made at any time during the period April 1 through June 30; the rate published on the first business day in June will apply to loans which are made at anytime during the period July 1 through September 30; the rate published on the first business day in September will apply to loans which are made at any time during the period October 1 through December 31. For purposes of this section 9.7, a loan is considered to be made when the loan proceeds are made available to the Participant. 9.8 Effect Upon Participant's Account. Upon the granting of a loan to a Participant by the Administrator, the allocations in the Participant's Account to the respective investment funds will be reduced on a pro rata basis and replaced by the loan balance which will be designated as an asset in the Account. Such reduction shall be effected by reducing the Participant's Account in the following sequence, with no reduction of the succeeding Accounts until prior Accounts have been exhausted by the loan: Matching Contribution Account; Elective Deferral Account; ESOP Contribution Account, Rollover Contribution Account; and Employee After-Tax Contribution Account. Upon repayment of the principal and interest, the loan balance will be reduced, the Participant Accounts will be increased in the reverse order in which they were exhausted by the loan, and the loan payments will be allocated to the respective investment funds in accordance with the investment election then in effect. 9.9 Effect of Severance From Service and Nonpayment. In the event that a loan remains outstanding upon the Severance from Service of a Participant, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the outstanding loan. In any case where payments on the outstanding loan are not made within ninety (90) days of the Participant's Severance from Service Date, the amount of any unpaid principal will be deducted from the Participant's account and reported as a distribution. If, as a result of layoff or Authorized Leave of Absence, a Participant, although still in a Period of Service, is not being compensated through the Employer's payroll system, loan payments will be suspended until the earliest of the first pay date after the Participant returns to active employment with the Employer, the Participant's Severance from Service Date, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date of the suspension. In the event the Participant does not return to active employment with the Employer, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the outstanding loan. If the Participant fails to resume payments on the loan, the outstanding loan will be reported as a taxable distribution. In no event, however, shall the loan be deducted from the Participant's Account earlier than the date on which the Participant (i) incurs a Severance from Service, or (ii) attains age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2).
45 ARTICLE X Contribution and Benefit Limitations 10.1 Contribution Limits. (a) The Annual Additions that may be allocated to a Participant's Account for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of: (1) thirty thousand dollars ($30,000); or (2) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant's Compensation for that Limitation Year. (b) If the Employer maintains any other Defined Contribution Plans then the limitations in subsection (a) shall be computed with reference to the aggregate Annual Additions for each Participant from all such Defined Contribution Plans. (c) If the Annual Additions for a Participant would exceed the limits specified in this section, then the Annual Additions under this Plan for that Participant shall be reduced to the extent necessary to prevent such limits from being exceeded. Such reduction shall be made in accordance with section 10.4. 10.2 Overall Limits. (a) With respect to Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 2000, if a Participant is participating in both a Defined Contribution Plan and a Defined Benefit Plan of the Employer, then the sum of the Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction for any Limitation Year shall not exceed 1.0. (b) If the sum of the Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction would exceed 1.0, then the annual benefits under the Defined Benefit Plan shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the sum of such fractions does not exceed 1.0. 10.3 Annual Adjustments to Limits. The dollar limits for Annual Additions and the dollar limits in the Defined Benefit Fraction and Defined Contribution Fraction shall be adjusted for cost-of-living to the extent permitted under section 415 of the Code. 10.4 Excess Amounts. (a) The foregoing limits shall be limits on the allocation that may be made to a Participant's Account in any Limitation Year. If an excess Annual Addition would otherwise result from allocation of forfeitures, reasonable errors in determining Compensation or other comparable reasons, then the Administrator may take any (or all) of the following steps to prevent the excess Annual Additions from being allocated:
46 (1) return any contributions from the Participant, as long as such return is nondiscriminatory; (2) hold the excess amounts unallocated in a suspense account and apply the balance of the suspense account against Matching or ESOP Contributions for that Participant made in succeeding years; (3) hold the excess amounts unallocated in a suspense account and apply the balance of the suspense account against succeeding year Matching or ESOP Contributions; (4) reallocate the excess amounts to other Participants. (b) Any suspense account established under this section shall not be credited with income or loss unless otherwise directed by the Administrator. If a suspense account under this section is to be applied in a subsequent Limitation Year, then the amounts in the suspense account shall be applied before any Annual Additions (other than forfeitures) are made for such Limitation Year. 10.5 Definitions.

(2)(A) Defined Benefit Fraction. A fraction, the numerator of which is the Projected Annual Benefit of the Participant under all Defined Benefit Plans of the Employer (determined as of the close of the Limitation Year) and the denominator of which is the Projected Annual Benefit the Participant would have under such plans (determined as of the close of the Limitation Year) if such plans provided an annual benefit equal to the lesser of: (i) the product of 1.25 multiplied by ninety thousand dollars ($90,000); or (ii) the product of 1.4 multiplied by one hundred percent (100%) of the Participant's average Compensation for the Participant's three (3) consecutive Years of Service that produce the highest average Compensation.

(5) Defined Contribution Plan. A plan qualified under section 401(a) of the Code that provides an individual account for each Participant and benefits based solely on the amount contributed to the Participant's Account, plus any income, expenses, gains and losses, and forfeitures of other Participants which may be allocated to such Participant's account. (6) Limitation Year. The Plan Year, until the Employer adopts a different Limitation Year. (7) Projected Annual Benefit. The annual benefit to which a Participant would be entitled, assuming: (A) the Participant continues in employment until Normal Retirement Age under the Plan; (B) the Participant's Compensation for the Limitation Year remains the same until such Normal Retirement Age; and
48 (C) all other relevant factors under the Plan for the Limitation Year will remain constant. (b) For purposes of this ARTICLE, the term "Compensation" shall mean all amounts paid to an Employee for personal service actually rendered to the Employer, including, but not limited to, wages, salary, commissions, bonuses, overtime and other premium pay as specified in Reg. ss. 1.415-2(d)(2), but excluding deferred compensation, stock options, and other distributions that receive special tax treatment as specified in Reg. ss. 1.415-2(d)(3).

(a) If the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan, then amounts in a Participant's Account attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall be vested in accordance with this section, in lieu of ARTICLE VI, to the extent this section produces a greater degree of vesting. This section shall only apply to Participants who have at least an Hour of Service after the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan. (b) If applicable, amounts in a Participant's Account attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall vest as follows: Years of Top Heavy Service Vested Percentage Fewer than 3 0% 3 or more 100% (c) If the Plan ceases to be a Top-Heavy Plan then subsection (b) shall no longer be applicable; provided, however, that in no event shall the vested percentage of any Participant be reduced by reason of the Plan ceasing to be a Top-Heavy Plan. Subsection (b) shall nevertheless continue to apply for any Participant who was previously covered by it and who has at least three (3) Years of Top-Heavy Service.
49 11.3 Minimum Contribution. (a) For each Plan Year that the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the Adopting Employers shall make a contribution to be allocated directly to the Account of each Non-Key Employee. (b) The amount of the contribution (and forfeitures) required to be contributed and allocated for a Plan Year by this section is three percent (3%) of the Top-Heavy Compensation for that Plan Year of each Non-Key Employee who is both a Participant and an Employee on the last day of the Plan Year for which the contribution is made, with adjustments as provided herein. If the contributions (other than Rollover Contributions) allocated to the Accounts of each Key Employee for a Plan Year are less than three percent (3%) of his or her Top-Heavy Compensation, then the contribution required by the preceding sentence shall be reduced for that Plan Year to the same percentage of Top-Heavy Compensation that was allocated to the Account of the Key Employee whose Account received the greatest allocation of contributions (other than Rollover Contributions) for that Plan Year, when computed as a percentage of Top-Heavy Compensation. (c) The contribution required by this section shall be reduced for a Plan Year to the extent of any ESOP or Qualified Nonelective Contributions made and allocated under this Plan or any other contributions (as permitted under section 416 of the Code and the regulations thereunder; including, but not limited to, Matching Contributions that are not needed to satisfy the limits prescribed in section 4.8) from the Adopting Employers made and allocated under any other Aggregated Plans. 11.4 Definitions. (a) The following terms shall have the meanings specified herein: (1) Aggregated Plans. (A) The Plan, any plan that is part of a "required aggregation group" and any plan that is part of a "permissive aggregation group" that the Adopting Employers treat as an Aggregated Plan. (B) The "required aggregation group" consists of each plan of the Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates (in the Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years) and each other plan of the Adopting Employers which enables any plan of the Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates to meet the requirements of section 401(a)(4) or section 410(b) of the Code. Also included in the required aggregation group shall be any terminated plan that covered a Key Employee and was maintained within the five (5) year period ending on the Determination Date. (C) The "permissive aggregation group" consists of any plan not included in the "required aggregation group" if the Aggregated Plan described in subparagraph (A) above would continue to meet the requirements of section 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code with such additional plan being taken into account.
50 (2) Determination Date. The last day of the preceding Plan Year, or, in the case of the first plan year of any plan, the last day of such plan year. The computations made on the Determination Date shall utilize information from the immediately preceding Valuation Date. (3) Key Employee. (A) An Employee (or former Employee) who, at any time during the Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years, is: (i) An officer of one of the Adopting Employers with annual Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan Year greater than fifty percent (50%) of the amount in effect under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar year in which that Plan Year ends; (ii) one of the ten (10) Employees owning (or considered as owning under section 318 of the Code) the largest interest in one of the Adopting Employers, who has more than one-half of one percent (.5%) interest in such Adopting Employer, and who has annual Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan Year at least equal to the maximum dollar limitation under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar year in which that Plan Year ends; (iii) a five percent (5%) or greater shareholder in one of the Adopting Employers; or (iv) a one percent (1%) shareholder in one of the Adopting Employers with annual Top-Heavy Compensation from the Adopting Employer of more than one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000). (B) For purposes of paragraphs (3)(A)(iii) and (3)(A)(iv), the rules of section 414(b), (c) and (m) of the Code shall not apply. Beneficiaries of an Employee shall acquire the character of such Employee and inherited benefits will retain the character of the benefits of the Employee who performed services. (4) Non-Key Employee. Any Employee who is not a Key Employee. (5) Super Top-Heavy Plan. A Top-Heavy Plan in which the sum o the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits and accounts for Key Employees exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the comparable sum determined for all Employees. The foregoing determination shall be made in the same manner as the determination of a Top-Heavy Plan under this section. (6) Top-Heavy Compensation. The term Top-Heavy Compensation shall have the same meaning as the term Compensation has under section 10.5(b). (7) Top-Heavy Plan. The Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan for a Plan Year if, as of the Determination Date for that Plan Year, the sum of (i) the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all Defined Benefit Plans that are Aggregated Plans and (ii) the aggregate of the accounts of Key Employees under all Defined Contribution Plans that are Aggregated Plans exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the comparable sum determined for all Employees.
51 (8) Years of Top-Heavy Service. The number of Years of Service with the Adopting Employers that might be counted under section 411(a) of the Code, disregarding all service that may be disregarded under section 411(a)(4) of the Code. (b) The definitions in this section and the provisions of this ARTICLE shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with section 416 of the Code. 11.5 Special Rules. (a) For purposes of determining the present value of the cumulative accrued benefit for any Participant or the amount of the Account of any Participant, such present value or amount shall be increased by the aggregate distributions made with respect to such Participant under the Plan during the Plan Year that includes the Determination Date and the four (4) preceding Plan Years (if such amounts would otherwise have been omitted). (b)(1) In the case of unrelated rollovers and transfers, (i) the plan making the distribution or transfer is to count the distribution as a distribution under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and (ii) the plan accepting the rollover or transfer is not to consider the rollover or transfer as part of the accrued benefit if such rollover or transfer was accepted after December 31, 1983, but is to consider it as part of the accrued benefit if such rollover or transfer was accepted before January 1, 1984. For this purpose, rollovers and transfers are to be considered unrelated if they are both initiated by the Employee and made from a plan maintained by one employer to a plan maintained by another employer. (2) In the case of related rollovers and transfers, the plan making the distribution or transfer is not to count the distribution or transfer under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and the plan accepting the rollover or transfer counts the rollover or transfer in the present value of the accrued benefits. For this purpose, rollovers and transfers are to be considered related if they are not unrelated under subsection (b)(1). (c) If any individual is a Non-Key Employee with respect to any plan for any Plan Year, but such individual was a Key Employee with respect to such plan for any prior Plan Year, any accrued benefit for such Employee (and the account of such Employee) shall not be taken into account. (d) Beneficiaries of Key Employees and former Key Employees are considered to be Key Employees and Beneficiaries of Non-Key Employees and former Non-Key Employees are considered to be Non-Key Employees. (e) The accrued benefit of an Employee who has not performed any service for the Adopting Employer maintaining the Plan at any time during the five (5) year period ending on the Determination Date is excluded from the calculation to determine top-heaviness. However, if an Employee performs no services, such Employee's total accrued benefit is included in the calculation for top-heaviness.
52 11.6 Adjustment of Limitations. (a) If this section is applicable, then the contribution and benefit limitations in section 10.5 shall be reduced. Such reduction shall be made by modifying section 10.5(a)(2)(A) of the definition of Defined Benefit Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied by ninety thousand dollars ($90,000), or" and by modifying section 10.5(a)(4)(A) of the definition of Defined Contribution Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied by thirty thousand dollars ($30,000), or". (b) This section shall be applicable for any Plan Year in which either: (1) the Plan is a Super Top-Heavy Plan, or (2) the Plan both is a Top-Heavy Plan (but not a Super Top-Heavy Plan) and provides contributions (other than Rollover Contributions and forfeitures to the Account of any Non-Key Employee in an amount less than four percent (4%) of such Participant's Top-Heavy Compensation, as determined in accordance with section 11.3(b). ARTICLE XII The Trust Fund 12.1 Trust. During the period in which this Plan remains in existence, the Company or any successor thereto shall maintain in effect a Trust with a corporation and/or an individual(s) as Trustee, to hold, invest, and distribute the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms of such Trust. 12.2 Investment of Accounts. The Trustee shall invest and reinvest the Participant's accounts in the investment options available under the Plan in accordance with ARTICLE V, as directed by the Administrator or its delegate. The Administrator shall issue such directions in accordance with the investment options selected by the Participants which shall remain in force until altered in accordance with Article V. 12.3 Expenses. Expenses of the Plan and Trust shall be paid from the Trust. 12.4 Acquisition Loans. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the Plan, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to incur Acquisition Loans from time to time to finance the acquisition of Common Stock or to repay a prior Acquisition Loan. An Acquisition Loan shall be for a specific term, shall bear a reasonable rate of interest, and shall not be payable on demand except in the event of default. Acquisition loans may be secured by the pledge of the Financed Shares so acquired (or acquired with the proceeds of a prior Acquisition Loan which is being refinanced). No other Trust assets may be pledged as collateral for an Acquisition Loan, and no lender shall have recourse against Trust assets other than any Financed Shares remaining subject to pledge. If the lender is a party in interest (as defined in ERISA), the Acquisition Loan must provide for a transfer of Trust assets on default only upon and to the extent of the failure
53 of the Trust to meet the payment schedule of the Acquisition Loan. Any pledge of Financed Shares must provide for the release of the shares so pledged as payments on the Acquisition Loan are made by the Trustee, and such Financed Shares are allocated to Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts under Article IV. Payments of principal and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan shall be made by the Trustee (as directed by the Administrator) only from Employer contributions paid in cash to enable the Trust to repay such Acquisition Loan, from earnings attributable to such Employer contributions, and from any cash dividends received by the Trust on such Financed Shares. Except as required by section 409(h) of the Code and by Treasury Regulations sections 54.4975(b)(9), (10), or as otherwise required by applicable law, no Financed Shares may be subject to a put, call or other option, or a buy-sell or similar arrangement while held by, or distributed from, the Plan, whether or not the ESOP Portion of the Plan is an employee stock ownership plan, within the meaning of section 4975(e)(7) of the Code at the time. 12.5 Sale of Common Stock. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the Plan, subject to the approval of the Senior Vice President of Human Resources of the Company or other officer authorized by the Board of Directors to give such approval, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to sell shares of Common Stock to any person, including the Company and any Affiliates, provided such sale must be made at a price not less favorable to the Plan than fair market value. In the event that the Trustee is unable to make payments of principal and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan when due, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to sell any Financed Shares that have not yet been allocated to Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts or to obtain an Acquisition Loan in an amount sufficient to make such payments. ARTICLE XIII Administration of The Plan 13.1 General Administration. The general administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the Company (or any successor thereto) which shall be the Administrator and named Fiduciary for purposes of ERISA. The Company shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to construe the terms of the Plan and to make determinations as to eligibility for benefits and as to other issues within the "Responsibilities of the Administrator" described in this ARTICLE. All such determinations of the Company shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. 13.2 Responsibilities of the Administrator. Except as otherwise provided in ERISA, the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries) may allocate any duties and responsibilities under the Plan and Trust among themselves in any mutually agreed upon manner. Such allocation shall be in a written document signed by the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries) and shall specifically set forth this allocation of duties and responsibilities, which may include the following: (a) Determination of all questions which may arise under the Plan with respect to questions of fact and law, including without limitation eligibility for participation, administration of Accounts, membership, vesting, loans, withdrawals, accounting, status of Accounts, stock ownership and voting rights, and any other issue requiring interpretation or application of the Plan.
54 (b) Establishment of procedures required by the Plan, such as notification to Employees as to joining the Plan, selecting and changing investment options, suspending deferrals, exercising voting rights in stock, withdrawing and borrowing Account balances, designation of Beneficiaries, election of method of distribution, and any other matters requiring a uniform procedure. (c) Submission of necessary amendments to supplement omissions from the Plan or reconcile any inconsistency therein. (d) Filing appropriate reports with the government as required by law. (e) Appointment of a Trustee or Trustees, Recordkeepers, and investment managers. (f) Review at appropriate intervals of the performance of the Trustee and such investment managers as may have been designated. (g) Appointment of such additional Fiduciaries as deemed necessary for the effective administration of the Plan, such appointments to be by written instrument. 13.3 Liability for Acts of Other Fiduciaries. Each Fiduciary shall be responsible only for the duties allocated or delegated to said Fiduciary, and other Fiduciaries shall not be liable for any breach of fiduciary responsibility with respect to any act or omission of any other Fiduciary unless: (a) The Fiduciary knowingly participates in or knowingly attempts to conceal the act or omission of such other Fiduciary and knows that such act or omission constitutes a breach of fiduciary responsibility by the other Fiduciary; (b) The Fiduciary has knowledge of a breach of fiduciary responsibility by the other Fiduciary and has not made reasonable efforts under the circumstances to remedy the breach; or (c) The Fiduciary's own breach of his or her specific fiduciary responsibilities has enabled another Fiduciary to commit a breach. No Fiduciary shall be liable for any acts or omissions which occur prior to his or her assumption of Fiduciary status or after his or her termination from such status. 13.4 Employment by Fiduciaries. Any Fiduciary hereunder may employ, with the written approval of the Administrator, one or more persons to render service with regard to any responsibility which has been assigned to such Fiduciary under the terms of the Plan including legal, tax, or investment counsel and may delegate to one or more persons any administrative duties (clerical or otherwise) hereunder.
55 13.5 Recordkeeping. The Administrator shall keep or cause to be kept any necessary data required for determining the Account status of each Participant. In compiling such information, the Administrator may rely upon its employment records, including representations made by the Participant in the employment application and subsequent documents submitted by the Participant to the Employer. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon such information when furnished by the Administrator or its delegate. Each Employee shall be required to furnish the Administrator upon request and in such form as prescribed by the Administrator, such personal information, affidavits and authorizations to obtain information as the Administrator may deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan, including but not limited to proof of the Employee's date of birth and the date of birth of any person designated by a Participant as a Beneficiary. 13.6 Claims Review Procedure. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section 13.6, the Administrator shall make all determinations as to the right of any person to Accounts under the Plan. Any such determination shall be made pursuant to the following procedures, which shall be conducted in a manner designed to comply with section 503 of ERISA: (1) Step 1. Claims with respect to an Account should be filed by a claimant as soon as practicable after the claimant knows or should know that a dispute has arisen with respect to an Account, but at least thirty (30) days prior to the claimant's actual retirement date or, if applicable, within sixty (60) days after the death, Disability or Severance from Service of the Participant whose Account is at issue, by mailing a copy of the claim to the Benefits and Services Department, Raytheon Company, 141 Spring Street, Lexington, Massachusetts 02421. (2) Step 2. In the event that a claim with respect to an Account is wholly or partially denied by the Administrator, the Administrator shall, within ninety (90) days following receipt of the claim, so advise the claimant in writing setting forth: the specific reason or reasons for the denial; specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim; an explanation as to why such material or information is necessary; and an explanation of the Plan's claim review procedure. (3) Step 3. Within sixty (60) days following receipt of the denial of a claim with respect to an Account, a claimant desiring to have the denial appealed shall file a request for review by an officer of the Company or a claims review committee, as designated by the Company, by mailing a copy thereof to the address shown in subsection (a)(1); provided, however, that such officer or any member of such claims review committee, as applicable, may not be the person who made the initial adverse benefits determination nor a subordinate of such person.
56 (4) Step 4. Within thirty (30) days following receipt of a request for review, the designated officer or claims review committee shall provide the claimant a further opportunity to present his or her position. At the designated officer or claims review committee's discretion, such presentation may be through an oral or written presentation. Prior to such presentation, the claimant shall be permitted the opportunity to review pertinent documents and to submit issues and comments in writing. Within a reasonable time following presentation of the claimant's position, which usually should not exceed thirty (30) days, the designated officer or claims review committee shall inform the claimant in writing of the decision on review setting forth the reasons for such decision and citing pertinent provisions in the Plan. (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (a), the Administrator is the Fiduciary to whom the Plan grants full discretion, with the advice of counsel, to interpret the Plan; to determine whether a claimant is eligible for benefits; to decide the amount, form and timing of benefits; and to resolve any other matter under the Plan which is raised by a claimant or identified by the Administrator. All questions arising from or in connection with the provisions of the Plan and its administration, not herein provided to be determined by the Board of Directors, shall be determined by the Administrator, and any determination so made shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons affected thereby. 13.7 Indemnification of Directors and Employees. The Adopting Employers shall indemnify any Fiduciary who is a director, officer or Employee of the Employer, his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all liability and reasonable expense, including counsel fees, amounts paid in settlement and amounts of judgments, fines or penalties, incurred or imposed upon him in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of acts or omissions in his or her capacity as a Fiduciary hereunder, provided that such act or omission is not the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Adopting Employers may indemnify other Fiduciaries, their heirs and legal representatives, under the circumstances, and subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence, if such indemnification is determined by the Board of Directors to be in the best interests of the Adopting Employers. 13.8 Immunity from Liability. Except to the extent that section 410(a) of ERISA prohibits the granting of immunity to Fiduciaries from liability for any responsibility, obligation, or duty imposed under Title I, Subtitle B, Part 4, of said Act, an officer, Employee, member of the Board of Directors of the Employer or other person assigned responsibility under this Plan shall be immune from any liability for any action or failure to act except such action or failure to act which results from said officer's, Employee's, Participant's or other person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct. ARTICLE XIV Amendment Or Termination Of Plan 14.1 Right to Amend or Terminate Plan. The Company reserves the right at any time or times, by action of the Board of Directors, to modify, amend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, in which event a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors, authorizing such modification, amendment or termination shall be delivered to the Trustee and to the other Adopting Employers whose Employees are covered by this Plan, provided, however, that no amendment to the Plan shall be made which shall:
57 (a) reduce any vested right or interest to which any Participant or Beneficiary is then entitled under this Plan or otherwise reduce the vested rights of a Participant in violation of section 411(d)(6) of the Code; (b) vest in the Adopting Employers any interest or control over any assets of the Trust; (c) cause any assets of the Trust to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries; or (d) change any of the rights, duties or powers of the Trustee without its written consent. (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section or any other provisions of this Plan, any modification or amendment of the Plan may be made retroactively if necessary or appropriate to conform the Plan with, or to satisfy the conditions of, ERISA, the Code, or any other law, governmental regulation or ruling. In the alternative, subject to the conditions prescribed in subsections (a) through (e), the Plan may be amended by an officer of the Company authorized by the Board of Directors to amend the Plan, provided, however, that any such amendment does not, in the view of such officer, materially increase costs of the Plan to the Company or any Adopting Employer. 14.2 Amendment to Vesting Schedule. Any amendment that modifies the vesting provisions of ARTICLE VI shall either: (a) provide for a rate of vesting that is at least as rapid for any Participant as the vesting schedule previously in effect; or (b) provide that any adversely affected Participant with a Period of Service of at least three (3) years may elect, in writing, to remain under the vesting schedule in effect prior to the amendment. Such election must be made within sixty (60) days after the later of the: (1) adoption of the amendment; (2) effective date of the amendment; or (3) issuance by the Administrator of written notice of the amendment. 14.3 Maintenance of Plan. The Adopting Employers have established the Plan with the bona fide intention and expectation that they will be able to make contributions indefinitely, but the Adopting Employers are not and shall not be under any obligation or liability whatsoever to continue contributions or to maintain the Plan for any given length of time. 14.4 Termination of Plan and Trust. The Plan and Trust hereby created shall terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Delivery to the Trustee of a notice of termination executed by the Company specifying the date as of which the Plan and Trust shall terminate; or
58 (b) Adjudication of the Company as bankrupt or general assignment by the Company to or for the benefit of creditors or dissolution of the Company. 14.5 Distribution on Termination. (a)(1) If the Plan is terminated, or contributions permanently discontinued, an Adopting Employer, at its discretion, may (at that time or at any later time) direct the Trustee to distribute the amounts in a Participant's Account in accordance with the distribution provisions of the Plan. Such distribution shall, notwithstanding any prior provisions of the Plan, be made in a single lump-sum without the Participant's consent as to the timing of such distribution. If, however, an Adopting Employer (or an Affiliate) maintains another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan), then the preceding sentence shall not apply and the Adopting Employer, at its discretion, may direct such distributions to be made as a direct transfer to such other plan without the Participant's consent, if the Participant does not consent to an immediate distribution. (2) If an Adopting Employer does not direct distribution under paragraph (1), each Participant's Account shall be maintained until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan (determined without regard to this section) as though the Plan had not been terminated or contributions discontinued. (b) If the Administrator determines that it is administratively impracticable to make distributions under this section in cash or that it would be in the Participant's best interest to make some or all of the distributions with in-kind property, it shall offer all Participants and Beneficiaries entitled to a distribution under this section a reasonable opportunity to elect to receive a distribution of the in-kind property being distributed by the Trust. Those Participants and Beneficiaries so electing shall receive a proportionate share of such in-kind property in the form (outright, in trust or in partnership) that the Administrator determines will provide the most feasible method of distribution. (c)(1) Amounts attributable to elective contributions shall only be distributable by reason of this section if one of the following is applicable: (A) the Plan is terminated without the establishment or maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan); (B) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition to an unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets used by the Adopting Employer in a trade or business of the Adopting Employer with respect to an Employee who continues employment with the corporation acquiring such assets; or
59 (C) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition to an unrelated entity of the Adopting Employer's interest in a subsidiary with respect to an Employee who continues employment with such subsidiary. (2) For purposes of this subsection, the term "elective contributions" means employer contributions made to the Plan that were subject to a cash or deferred election under a cash or deferred arrangement. (3) Elective contributions are distributable under subsections (c)(1)(B) and (C) above only if the Adopting Employers continue to maintain the Plan after the disposition. ARTICLE XV Additional Provisions 15.1 Effect of Merger, Consolidation or Transfer. In the event of any merger or consolidation with or transfer of assets or liabilities to any other plan or to this Plan, each Participant of the Plan shall be entitled to a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer, which is equal to or greater than the benefit he or she would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation or transfer (if the Plan had been terminated). 15.2 No Assignment. (a) Except as provided herein, the right of any Participant or Beneficiary to any benefit or to any payment hereunder shall not be subject to alienation, assignment, garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of any kind. (b) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer permitted by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to regulations issued under section 401(a)(13) of the Code. (c) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (d) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer to the Trust in accordance with section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code to satisfy the Participant's liabilities to the Plan or Trust in any one or more of the following circumstances: (1) the Participant is convicted of a crime involving the Plan; (2) a civil judgment (or consent order or decree) in an action is brought against the Participant in connection with an ERISA fiduciary violation; or (3) the Participant enters into a settlement agreement with the Department of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation over an ERISA fiduciary violation.
60 15.3 Limitation of Rights of Employees. This Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Adopting Employers and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between any of the Adopting Employers and any Employee, or to be a consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of the employment of any Employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Employee the right to be retained in the service of any of the Adopting Employers or shall interfere with the right of any of the Adopting Employers to discharge or otherwise terminate the employment of any Employee of an Adopting Employer at any time. No Employee shall be entitled to any right or claim hereunder except to the extent such right is specifically fixed under the terms of the Plan. 15.4 Construction. The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the requirements of the Code and ERISA. Any amendment or restatement of the Plan or Trust that would otherwise violate the requirements of section 411(d)(6) of the Code or otherwise cause the Plan or Trust to cease to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Code shall be deemed to be invalid. Capitalized terms shall have meanings as defined herein. Singular nouns shall be read as plural, masculine pronouns shall be read as feminine and vice versa, as appropriate. References to "section" or "ARTICLE" shall be read as references to appropriate provisions of this Plan, unless otherwise indicated. 15.5 Company Determinations. Any determinations, actions or decisions of the Company (including but not limited to, Plan amendments and Plan termination) shall be made by its Board of Directors in accordance with its established procedures or by such other individuals, groups or organizations that have been properly delegated by the Board of Directors to make such determination or decision. 15.6 Continued Qualification. This Plan is amended and restated with the intent that it shall continue to qualify under sections 401(a), 401(k) and 4975(e)(7) of the Code as those sections exist at the time the Plan is amended and restated. If the Internal Revenue Service determines that the Plan does not meet those requirements as amended and restated, the Plan shall be amended retroactively as necessary to correct any such inadequacy. Section 7.2 shall not be effective until the date the Internal Revenue Service issues a favorable determination letter with respect to the Plan as amended and restated herein (including section 7.2). Until section 7.2 becomes effective in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence of this section 15.6, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Employee After-Tax Contribution Account, subject to the condition that such Participant may not make any Employee After-Tax Contributions under the Plan for at least six (6) months after receipt of the in-service withdrawal. 15.7 Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed by, construed and administered in accordance with ERISA and any other applicable federal law; provided, however, that to the extent not preempted by federal law, this Plan shall be governed by, construed and administered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, other than its laws respecting choice of law.

Note: Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. In December 1997, the Company issued 102.6 million shares of Class A common stock and converted each share of Raytheon common stock into one share of Class B common stock in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense. All share and per share amounts have been restated to reflect the two-for-one stock split in October 1995. Overview Raytheon Company (the "Company") is a global technology leader that operates in three major business areas: Electronics, both defense and commercial, Engineering and Construction, and Aircraft. The Electronics segments were established in conjunction with the consolidation and reorganization of the Company's Electronics businesses and the creation of Raytheon Systems Company in December 1997 in order to create a premier electronics company. The Company is a leader in defense electronics, including missiles; radar; sensors and electro- optics; reconnaissance, surveillance, and intelligence; command, control, communication, and information; training; simulation and services; naval and air traffic control systems; and aircraft integration systems. The Company's results of operations include the results of Texas Instruments' defense business (TI Defense) which was acquired on July 11, 1997 and the defense business of Hughes Electronics Corporation (Hughes Defense) which merged with the Company on December 17, 1997. Raytheon Systems Company is comprised of the Defense Systems segment, the Sensors and Electronic Systems segment, the Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems segment, and the defense electronics portion of the segment that includes Command, Control, and Communication Systems, Training and Services, Commercial Electronics, and Other. The Engineering and Construction segment offers full-service engineering and construction capabilities to clients worldwide. The Aircraft segment is one of the leading providers of business and special mission aircraft and delivers a broad line of jet, turboprop, and piston-powered airplanes to corporate and military customers worldwide.
3 Consolidated Results of Operations On December 6, 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101), which among other guidance, clarifies certain conditions to be met in order to recognize revenue. After reexamining the terms underlying certain transactions of Raytheon Aircraft, the Company has determined that revenue related to these transactions should be reversed. In view of the cumulative effect of the unrecorded adjustment on the results of future periods, the Company has restated its annual and quarterly consolidated financial statements. The restatements were required to reverse sales that the Company believed were properly recorded as bill and held sales when the manufacturing process was substantially complete and the rights of ownership of the aircraft had passed to the buyer, but before minor modifications had been completed and the physical delivery of the aircraft occurred. The restated financial statements reflect sales when final delivery of the aircraft occurred. As these adjustments relate to the timing of revenue recognition all reversals are recognized in later periods. The financial statements and related notes set forth in this Form 10-K/A reflect all such restatements. Net sales in 1998 were $19.4 billion compared with $13.6 billion in 1997 and $12.3 billion in 1996. Sales to the U.S. Department of Defense were 56 percent of sales in 1998, 34 percent in 1997, and 33 percent in 1996. Total sales to the U.S. government were 66 percent of sales in 1998, 46 percent in 1997, and 42 percent in 1996. The increases are primarily a result of the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Total international sales, including foreign military sales, were 26 percent of sales in 1998, 29 percent in 1997, and 28 percent in 1996. The decrease is due to lower international sales at Hughes Defense and TI Defense; however, the Company is working to increase its international presence and expects continued growth in this area. Gross margin in 1998 was $4.3 billion compared with $2.7 billion in 1997 and $2.5 billion in 1996 or 21.9 percent of sales in 1998, 19.6 percent in 1997, and 20.7 percent in 1996. Excluding the restructuring and special charges described below of $85 million in 1998, $401 million in 1997, and $34 million in 1996, gross margin was $4.3 billion in 1998, $3.1 billion in 1997, and $2.6 billion in 1996 or 22.3 percent of sales in 1998, 22.5 percent in 1997, and 21.0 percent in 1996. The increases in 1997 from 1996 are principally a result of the acquisition of TI Defense. Administrative and selling expenses increased to $1,664 million in 1998 from $1,189 million in 1997 due primarily to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense, partially offset by the sale of the Company's home appliance, heating, air conditioning, and commercial cooking operations in September 1997. Administrative and selling expenses were $1,021 million in 1996. Administrative and selling expenses were 8.6 percent of sales in 1998, 8.7 percent in 1997, and 8.3 percent in 1996. Excluding the special charges described below of $167 million in 1998 and $94 million in 1997, administrative and selling expenses decreased to 7.7 percent of sales in 1998 from 8.1 percent in 1997 and 8.3 percent in 1996 reflecting increased efficiencies resulting from the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Research and development expenses increased to $582 million in 1998 from $415 million in 1997 and $323 million in 1996, due principally to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Research and development expenses were 3.0 percent of sales in 1998, 3.1 percent in 1997, and 2.6 percent in 1996. In January 1998, the Company announced plans to reduce the newly formed Raytheon Systems Company (RSC) workforce by 8,700 employees, close 20 facilities, and partially close an additional 6 facilities, reducing space by approximately 8 million square feet. This announcement was made in conjunction with the consolidation and reorganization of RSC in order to remain competitive in the defense industry. In October 1998, the Company announced previously planned actions to accelerate and expand these initiatives, reducing employment by approximately 14,000 positions by the end of 1999. RSC will also vacate an additional 3 million square feet at 8 facilities through sales, subleases and lease terminations. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the estimated number of employee terminations increased by approximately 1,200 employees, primarily comprised of manufacturing employees, however, the actual cost of termination per employee was lower than the original estimate. As a result of these changes in estimate, the total cost of employee severance decreased by $37 million. Also during the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company determined that facilities exit cost would run lower than the original estimate by $30 million because many of the facility actions were progressing ahead of the original schedule reducing the amount of rent and occupancy costs. Additionally, costs to return facilities to the required condition were less than originally planned. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company committed to close two additional facilities and further reduce employment by approximately 1,400 positions. The total program cost of the actions is estimated at $67 million, comprised of $14 million of severance and other employee related costs and $53 million of facility closure and related costs. The principal actions involve the consolidation of missile and other electronics systems' manufacturing and engineering, as well as the consolidation of certain component manufacturing into Centers of Excellence.
4 The total program cost of the RSC actions is estimated at $1.1 billion, of which $804 million pertains to exit costs. Approximately $385 million of the exit costs relate to employee severance and $419 million relate to facilities exit. In connection with these actions, the Company recorded a $220 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997, which is included in cost of sales. The Company also accrued $584 million as liabilities assumed in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense as part of the allocation of purchase price and not as a charge to operations. Through December 31, 1998, RSC employment has been reduced by approximately 9,000 people (which includes a 2,400 net reduction due to attrition) to approximately 79,000 employees, and 3.3 million square feet have been vacated. The Company expects to essentially complete these restructuring actions in 1999 and terminate an additional 8,800 employees which will be partially offset by new hire additions. Cash expenditures pertaining to exit costs under the restructuring initiatives outlined above were $104 million for employee severance and related items and $130 million for facility and office closures. Lower than expected costs of severance per employee have reduced the Company's estimates of employee related costs; however, these cost savings have been more than offset by higher than expected facilities exit costs and the cost of the additional fourth quarter actions. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required. Note S to the financial statements contains additional information pertaining to these restructuring actions. In January 1998, the Company also announced plans to reduce the Raytheon Engineers & Constructors (RE&C) workforce by 1,000 employees and close or partially close 16 offices, or approximately 1.1 million square feet. In connection with these actions and other committed but unannounced actions, the Company recorded a $75 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997, which is included in cost of sales. The restructuring charge included $31 million for employee severance for approximately 2,300 people, including the 1,000 positions announced in January 1998, and $44 million for facilities exit. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company modified the plan for RE&C that was committed to in January 1998 to close fewer facilities. As a result of this modification, the number of employee terminations was reduced from approximately 2,300 to approximately 1,400 and the total cost of employee severance decreased by $11 million. Because higher than expected facility exit costs were incurred at the locations being closed, the total estimated cost of facilities exit increased by $11 million. In October 1998, the Company also announced plans for an additional 260 person reduction in the RE&C workforce and recorded an additional $33 million restructuring charge, which is included in cost of sales. The total costs of these actions are currently estimated at $108 million, of which $53 million relate to employee severance and $55 million relate to facilities exit. In 1998, the Company also recorded a $52 million special charge for asset impairment related to the RE&C restructuring actions to exit two operations which are scheduled to be closed in 1999. The charge, which is included in cost of sales, consists of $45 million of goodwill associated with one of the operations to be exited and $7 million for the estimated loss on disposition of the other operation.
5 Through December 31, 1998, RE&C employment had been reduced by approximately 1,200 people and 900,000 square feet had been vacated. Cash expenditures in 1998 under the restructuring initiatives outlined above were $19 million for employee severance and related items and $23 million for facility and office closures. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required. In 1998, the Company recorded special charges of $167 million, discussed below, which are included in administrative and selling expenses. In the second quarter of 1998, the Company's partner in a Commercial Electronics joint venture in Korea began to experience financial difficulties. As a result, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment of its investment in the joint venture, reducing the book value of the investment to estimated fair value. During the third quarter of 1998, the financial condition of the joint venture deteriorated further, and the Company recorded an additional $83 million special charge to exit a line of business, which included writing off its remaining investment in the Korean joint venture. Also in 1998, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to write down the assets of two operations in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell to estimated fair value of approximately $125 million. One sale was completed during 1998. The other sale is expected to close in 1999. The operating results, which are not material, continue to be included in the Company's results of operations. In 1997, the Company recorded special charges of $200 million, discussed below, of which $106 million is included in cost of sales and $94 million is included in administrative and selling expenses. In 1997, the Company recorded a $63 million special charge primarily for one-time costs in the Electronics businesses associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. The Company also recorded a $57 million special charge primarily to write down to estimated fair value certain assets in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell. The sale of these assets was completed in 1998 and the proceeds and loss on disposition were not material. Also in 1997, the Company recorded a $50 million special charge for contract valuations at RE&C and a $30 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment at Raytheon Aircraft. In 1996, the Company recorded a $34 million special charge, which is included in cost of sales, to close a Major Appliances operation.
6 The Company recorded the following restructuring and special charges, which were included in the statements of income and classified as either cost of sales (cos) or administrative and selling expenses (A&S) as indicated below (in millions): 1998 1997 1996 --------------------- ---------------------- ------------ COS A&S Total COS A&S Total COS Total --- --- ----- --- --- ----- --- ----- Restructuring charges Electronics $220 $220 RE&C $33 $ 33 75 75 Special charges RE&C Asset impairment 52 52 Contract valuations 50 50 Electronics Asset impairment $ 42 42 9 9 Exit a line of 83 83 business Writedown assets to 42 42 48 48 be sold One time merger 17 46 63 costs Aircraft Asset impairment 30 30 Major Appliances Operation closure $34 $34 --- ---- ---- ---- --- ---- --- --- Total impact, pretax $85 $167 $252 $401 $94 $495 $34 $34 === ==== ==== ==== === ==== === === Operating income was $2,006 million or 10.3 percent of sales in 1998, $1,060 million or 7.8 percent of sales in 1997, and $1,192 million or 9.7 percent of sales in 1996. Excluding the restructuring and special charges of $252 million in 1998, $495 million in 1997, and $34 million in 1996, operating income as a percent of sales was 11.6 percent, 11.4 percent, and 10.0 percent in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The changes in operating income by segment are discussed below. Interest expense in 1998 increased to $739 million from $397 million in 1997 due principally to the higher debt level resulting from the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. During 1998, the Company issued $3.8 billion of long-term notes and debentures in order to secure favorable long-term rates. The weighted average cost of borrowing was 6.9 percent in 1998 versus 6.8 percent in 1997. Interest expense increased to $397 million in 1997 from $256 million in 1996. The increase was due principally to the debt-financed acquisition of TI Defense in July 1997 and higher short-term interest rates available to the Company. Interest and dividend income decreased to $28 million in 1998 from $38 million in 1997 and $102 million in 1996. The 1996 amount included accrued interest on a retroactive federal income tax refund claim. Other income, net of $142 million in 1998 includes a $141 million net gain on sales of operating units. Other income, net was $65 million in 1997 versus $39 million in 1996. The 1997 amount includes a $72 million net gain on sales of operating units. The effective tax rate was 41.3 percent in 1998, 33.3 percent in 1997, and 29.7 percent in 1996. The effective tax rate reflects primarily the United States statutory rate of 35 percent reduced by foreign sales corporation tax credits and research and development tax credits applicable to certain government contracts, increased by non-deductible amortization of goodwill. The increase in the effective tax rate in 1998 was primarily due to the increase in non-deductible amortization of goodwill resulting from the merger with Hughes Defense. The increase in the effective tax rate in 1997 from 1996 was due to accrued retroactive research and development tax credits applicable to certain government contracts recorded in 1996. The impact of the 1998 charges, and net gain on sales of operating units combined was a net charge of $421 million pretax and $271 million after-tax. The impact of the 1997 charges and net gain on sales of operating units combined was a net charge of $423 million pretax and $275 million after-tax. The impact of the 1996 charge was $34 million pretax and $22 million after-tax. Net income for 1998 was $844 million, or $2.47 per diluted share on 341.9 million average shares outstanding. Net income for 1997 was $511 million, or $2.11 per diluted share on 241.9 million average shares outstanding. Net income for 1996 was $757 million, or $3.15 per diluted share on 240.2 million average shares outstanding. The Company issued 102.6 million shares of Class A common stock in December 1997 in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense. Total employment was approximately 108,200 at December 31, 1998, approximately 119,200 at December 31, 1997, and approximately 75,300 at December 31, 1996. The decrease between 1998 and 1997 is primarily a result of the restructuring initiatives at RSC and RE&C outlined above. The increase between 1997 and 1996 was due principally to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense.

The Major Appliances segment was substantially divested in 1997 with the remaining operations sold in 1998. As a result of these dispositions, the Company has included the remaining operations of the Major Appliances segment within Total Electronics in 1998 and 1997. Information for the segments that comprise Total Electronics has not been presented for 1997 and 1996 because the Company determined that it was impracticable to obtain the comparative information due to the significant acquisitions, divestitures, and reorganizations that took place during 1998 and 1997. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed a reorganization of certain business segments to better align the operations with customer needs and to eliminate management redundancy. Note O to the financial statements contains additional information about this change. This organizational change will be reflected in the Company's 1999 financial statements.
8 The Electronics businesses reported 1998 sales of $14.8 billion, an increase of 65 percent compared with 1997, and 1998 operating income of $2,032 million, a 137 percent increase compared with 1997. The significant increase was attributable primarily to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Additionally, the previously discussed restructuring and special charges decreased to $167 million in 1998 from $340 million in 1997. The Electronics businesses reported 1997 sales of $9.0 billion, an increase of 45 percent compared with 1996, and 1997 operating income of $856 million, an 8 percent increase compared with 1996. The increase was attributable primarily to the acquisition of TI Defense offset by the restructuring and special charges discussed above. The Electronics businesses reported 1996 sales of $6.2 billion and operating income of $793 million. RE&C reported 1998 sales of $2.1 billion and an operating loss of $253 million and 1997 sales of $2.3 billion and operating income of $19 million. During 1998, RE&C recorded a non-recurring charge of $310 million for a change in estimate on certain contracts and contract claims. The $310 million charge consisted of a $153 million change in estimate on certain contracts and a $157 million charge related to certain contract claims. The change in estimate was due to increased cost projections on several large turnkey projects. The charge related to contract claims was due to a change in methodology employed by the Company to pursue outstanding claims. In accordance with contract accounting rules, this charge was recorded as a reduction in net sales. In addition, RE&C recorded previously discussed restructuring and special charges of $85 million in 1998 and $125 million in 1997. The decrease in sales and operating income was due primarily to the $310 million charge. In addition, new orders have not progressed as anticipated. This lower growth combined with operational performance on certain contracts resulted in continued margin pressure. In response to these circumstances, RE&C announced corrective actions which included strengthening the management team, improving cash flow management by revising contractual terms where possible and shortening the billing cycle. In addition, reductions in the overhead structure are expected to occur as a result of eliminating layers of management, being more selective in the bidding process, and the closing or partial closing of 16 offices. RE&C reported 1996 sales of $2.3 billion and operating income of $184 million. Raytheon Aircraft reported 1998 sales of $2.5 billion, up slightly compared with 1997, and 1998 operating income of $227 million, an improvement of 23 percent compared with 1997. The increase in sales is primarily due to increased shipments of general aviation aircraft. The increase in operating income is primarily due to the 1997 special charge of $30 million discussed above. Raytheon Aircraft reported 1997 sales of $2.4 billion, up slightly compared with 1996, and 1997 operating income of $185 million, an increase of 6 percent compared with 1996. The increases reflect increased shipments of general aviation aircraft and contracts for services. The increase in operating income was offset by the 1997 special charge discussed above. Raytheon Aircraft reported 1996 sales of $2.3 billion and operating income of $175 million. Backlog consisted of the following at: (In millions) December 31: 1998 1997 1996 (Restated) (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Electronics $17,648 $16,641 $ 7,559 Engineering and Construction 3,888 2,900 3,309 Aircraft 2,509 1,974 1,348 Major Appliances -- -- 35 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total backlog $24,045 $21,515 $12,251 U.S. government backlog included above $14,622 $12,547 $ 5,637 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9 During the third quarter of 1998, the Company changed its method of reporting backlog at certain locations in order to provide a consistent method of reporting across and within the Company's businesses. Backlog includes the full value of contract awards when received, excluding awards and options expected in future periods. Prior to the change, contract values which were awarded but incrementally funded were excluded from reported backlog for some parts of the business. The one-time impact of this change was a $1.1 billion increase to Electronics backlog and a $0.9 billion increase to Engineering and Construction backlog, related principally to U.S. government contracts. Prior periods have not been restated for this change. Excluding this change, backlog remained essentially unchanged from December 31, 1997. Financial Condition and Liquidity Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $994 million versus $1,044 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. The decrease is due principally to increased working capital requirements and restructuring activities at the Electronics businesses. In 1998, the Company incurred cash expenditures of $276 million on restructuring and exit costs and $56 million of capital expenditures and period expenses related to restructuring and consolidation activities for RSC and RE&C combined. The Company expects to spend approximately $534 million on exit costs and approximately $225 million on capital expenditures and period costs related to restructuring actions in 1999. For the year ended December 31, 1996, net cash provided by operating activities was $522 million. While the Company expects that the completion of restructuring and consolidation activities will reduce cash flow in the near term, over the next five years the Company expects to generate significant cash from operations. The Company maintains an ongoing program under which it sells general and commuter aviation long-term receivables. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company initiated a program under which it sells government short-term receivables. Proceeds from the sale of government short-term receivables were $225 million in 1998. In addition, the Company maintains an ongoing program under which it sells engineering and construction short-term receivables. The Company changed its method of reporting cash flows related to the origination and sale of financing receivables which are now classified as cash flows from investing activities. Prior to the change, these amounts were classified as cash flows from operating activities. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Net cash provided by investing activities was $617 million in 1998 versus net cash used in investing activities of $2,937 million and $1,169 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Origination of financing receivables was $1,339 million in 1998, $1,317 million in 1997, and $1,336 million in 1996. Sale of financing receivables was $1,105 million in 1992, $1,182 million in 1998, and $1,031 in 1996. Capital expenditures of $509 million in 1998 increased slightly from $459 million in 1997, primarily due to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Capital expenditures in 1999 are expected to approximate 1998 levels. Capital expenditures were $406 million in 1996. Proceeds from sales of property, plant, and equipment include a $490 million property sale and five-year operating lease facility. The transaction was intended to diversify the Company's sources of funding and extend the term for a portion of the Company's financing obligations. Remaining lease payments approximate $109 million in 1999, $94 million in 2000, $77 million in 2001, $63 million in 2002, and $212 million in 2003. The lease facility contains covenants that are substantially similar to those in the Company's senior credit facilities. Also during 1998, the Company received proceeds of $210 million from various property sales.
10 During 1998, the Company made net payments for the purchase of acquired companies of $96 million, including $63 million for the acquisition of AlliedSignal's Communications Systems business. During 1997, net payments of $3,087 million were made in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Pursuant to the terms of the Master Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement"), which requires an adjustment based on net assets, the final purchase price for Hughes Defense has not been determined. Based on the terms and conditions of the Separation Agreement, the Company believes that it is entitled to a reduction in the purchase price, a position that Hughes Electronics disputes. The Company and Hughes Electronics have begun the process of negotiating a possible resolution of this matter. If the matter is not successfully resolved through negotiation, the Separation Agreement provides for binding arbitration. Accordingly, while the Company expects a reduction in purchase price from the original terms of the agreement, the amount, timing, and effect on the Company's financial position are uncertain. As a result of this uncertainty, no amounts have been recorded in the financial statements related to this gain contingency. Pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement, Hughes Electronics delivered to the Company a balance sheet for Hughes Defense (the "Closing Balance Sheet"), as of December 17, 1997, the effective time of the merger of the Company and Hughes Defense. During the course of the Company's review of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Company identified numerous items requiring adjustment. As a result of this review, as well as the accrual of additional exit costs, the Company recorded a total of approximately $1 billion of adjustments, exit costs accruals and additional goodwill during 1998. The Closing Balance Sheet included: . Contracts in process of $2,226 million, which the Company reduced by $1,170 million to record additional contract loss provisions of $693 million, other contract adjustments of $272 million, billed and unbilled contract write-offs of $139 million, and contract claim write-offs of $66 million . Inventories of $343 million, which the Company reduced by $84 million primarily to record write-offs of excess and obsolete inventory . Other current assets of $208 million, which the Company increased by $612 million primarily to record additional deferred tax assets related to the Company's adjustments to the Hughes Defense closing balance sheet . Property, plant, and equipment of $1,103 million, which the Company reduced by $78 million to record an estimated fair value adjustment . Other long-term assets of $1,023 million, which the Company increased by $119 million primarily to record an increase in the value of certain prepaid pension assets . Current liabilities of $1,701 million, which the Company increased by $931 million to record $584 million of exit costs, $245 million of adjustments for unfavorable leases, $29 million related to liabilities for employee compensation and related taxes and benefits, $14 million for additional environmental liabilities . Long-term liabilities of $1,069 million, which the Company reduced by $83 million primarily to reduce certain liabilities to estimated fair value As noted above, the adjustments recorded during 1998 were made as a result of the Company's review of the Closing Balance Sheet. The Company believes many of the same types of adjustments may also have been required in the September 28, 1997 Hughes Defense balance sheet which is included in the Company's Solicitation Statement/Prospectus dated November 10, 1997. As a result, the Company believes that the September 28, 1997 Hughes Defense balance sheet may contain items that are material departures from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, therefore, investors are cautioned that the pro forma combined condensed financial statements contained in the Company's November 10, 1997 Solicitation Statement/Prospectus and the unaudited pro forma financial information included above may not be representative of the combined company's actual financial position. Hughes Electronics and their independent accountants do not agree with the Company's assessment. During 1998, the Company sold its commercial laundry business unit for $315 million in cash and $19 million in securities and its Raytheon Aircraft Montek subsidiary for $160 million. Also during 1998, the Company sold other non-core business operations for $273 million. Total sales and operating income related to these divested businesses were $372 million and $8 million, respectively in 1998. During 1997, the Company sold its home appliance, heating, air conditioning, and commercial cooking operations for $522 million. Also during 1997, the Company sold its Switchcraft and Semiconductor divisions, which were part of Commercial Electronics, for $183 million. The Company has been divesting non-core assets as part of its strategy to focus and streamline its core businesses. Dividends paid to stockholders were $271 million in 1998, $189 million in 1997, and $190 million in 1996. The quarterly dividend rate was $0.20 per share for each of the four quarters of 1998, 1997, and 1996. The increase in dividends paid in 1998 was due to the issuance of 102.6 million shares in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense. Outstanding shares were reduced by the repurchase of 4.6 million shares for $247 million in 1998 and 1.7 million shares for $94 million in 1997. Total debt was $9.0 billion at December 31, 1998 as compared with $10.1 billion at December 31, 1997 and $3.7 billion at December 31, 1996. The increase is principally due to the financing requirements of the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense, partially offset by the sale of certain appliance and other non-core operations. The Company's outstanding debt has interest rates ranging from 5.7% to 7.375% and matures at various dates through 2028. Total debt, as a percentage of total capital, was 45.4 percent, 49.2 percent, and 44.9 percent at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The Company issued $3.8 billion of long-term notes and debentures during 1998 and $3.0 billion during 1997. These financings were used to refinance the debt associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense and to take advantage of favorable long-term interest rates in order to reduce short-term borrowings. Note J to the financial statements contains additional disclosures related to long-term debt.
11 Credit ratings for the Company were established by Moody's at P-2 for short-term borrowing and Baa1 for senior debt, Standard and Poor's at A-2 for short-term borrowing and BBB for senior debt, and Duff & Phelps at D-2 for short-term borrowing and BBB+ for senior debt. Lines of credit with certain commercial banks totaling $4.4 billion at December 31, 1998 exist as standby facilities to support the issuance of commercial paper by the Company. These lines of credit bear interest based upon LIBOR and mature at various dates through 2002. At December 31, 1998, there were no borrowings under these lines of credit. At December 31, 1997, the Company had lines of credit totaling $9.0 billion as a source of direct borrowing and as a standby facility to support the issuance of commercial paper of which $3.5 billion was outstanding. Given the present state of the financial markets and economic conditions, the Company does not currently anticipate making future borrowings under the remaining lines of credit. The Company's need for, cost of, and access to funds are dependent on future operating results, as well as conditions external to the Company. The Company believes that its cash position will be sufficient to maintain investment grade credit ratings and its sources of and access to capital markets are adequate to support current operations. The following discussion covers quantitative and qualitative disclosures about the Company's market risk. The Company's primary market exposures are to interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company meets its working capital requirements with a combination of variable rate short-term and fixed rate long-term financing. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with commercial banks primarily to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on short-term financing arrangements. The Company also enters into foreign exchange contracts with commercial banks to minimize fluctuations in the value of payments to international vendors and the value of foreign currency denominated receipts. The market-risk sensitive instruments used by the Company for hedging are entered into with commercial banks and are directly related to a particular asset, liability, or transaction for which a firm commitment is in place. The Company also sells receivables through various special purpose entities and retains a partial interest that may include servicing rights, interest only strips, and subordinated certificates. Financial instruments held by the Company which are subject to interest rate risk include notes payable, commercial paper, long-term debt, long-term receivables, investments, and interest rate swap agreements. The aggregate hypothetical loss in earnings for one year of those financial instruments held by the Company at December 31, 1998 which are subject to interest rate risk resulting from a hypothetical increase in interest rates of 10 percent is $1 million, after-tax. The hypothetical loss was determined by calculating the aggregate impact of a 10 percent increase in the interest rate of each variable rate financial instrument held by the Company at December 31, 1998 which is subject to interest rate risk. Fixed rate financial instruments were not evaluated, as the risk exposure is not material.
12 The Company's outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts include contracts to buy and/or sell British Pounds, Netherlands Guilders, German Marks, Canadian Dollars, Swiss Francs, and Norwegian Kroner. All foreign exchange contracts were related to specific transactions for which a firm commitment existed, and therefore the associated market risk of the market risk sensitive instruments and the underlying firm commitments in the aggregate is not material. On January 1, 1999, eleven participating countries of the European Union converted to a common currency, the Euro, which became their official currency. National currencies will initially remain legal tender. The Company recently conducted an internal analysis to determine the impact of the Euro conversion which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's business. Year 2000 Date Conversion The Year 2000 problem concerns the inability of information systems to recognize properly and process date-sensitive information beyond January 1, 2000. In January 1998, the Company initiated a formal comprehensive enterprise-wide program to identify and resolve Year 2000 related issues. The scope of the program includes the investigation of all Company functions and products, and all internally used hardware and software systems, including embedded systems in what are not traditionally considered information technology systems. The program has developed standard processes and an internal service center in support of Year 2000 readiness. The Company is following an eight-step risk management process grouped into two major phases, detection (planning and awareness, inventory, triage, and detailed assessment) and correction (resolution, test planning, test execution, and deployment). The Company has identified eight system types that could have risk as follows: application, infrastructure, test equipment, engineering computing, manufacturing, delivered product, facilities, and supply chain. The completion of several large acquisitions in recent years through which the Company inherited a large number of systems, products, and facilities adds to the complexity of this task. As the Company continues to acquire new businesses, these businesses must then be brought into the program. The detection phase of the program is currently estimated to be 95 percent complete. On the basis of expected total cost, the detection phase is 73 percent complete. The remaining work in this phase is expected to be completed in early 1999. The work in the detection phase has covered all eight system types, including delivered product and supply chain.
13 The Company has made substantial progress in the corrective action phase of the program, with 82 percent of the tasks required in this phase completed, up from 19 percent at the end of the third quarter of 1998. On the basis of expected total cost, the corrective action phase is 45 percent complete. The Company expects to complete corrective activities by the third quarter of 1999. The Company has instituted and is executing a formal audit program to assess the state of readiness. Also, the Company is assessing the risk of supplier readiness, and in selected cases will review the preparedness of individual suppliers for Year 2000. Finally, the Company plans to audit Year 2000 compliance of selected vendors. When the corrective action phase of the program is completed the Company expects to have developed contingency plans, augmenting existing disaster recovery plans and sourcing strategies, for identified risks. Since January 1998, the Company has spent approximately $67 million on the Year 2000 program, $16 million on the detection phase, and $51 million on the corrective action phase. Prior to 1998, expenditures on the program were insignificant. Total cost at completion of the program is currently estimated to be $136 million. Of the total $136 million estimated costs, $22 million relates to the detection phase and $114 million is for correction. All costs, except those for long-lived assets, are expensed as incurred. These costs include employees, inside and outside consultants and services, system replacements, and other equipment requirements. The Company has employed consultants in an advisory capacity, primarily in the detection phase. Total estimated costs of the Year 2000 program are predominantly internal. Although a number of minor information technology projects have been deferred as a result of the priority given to the Year 2000 program, no significant projects which would materially affect the Company's financial position or results of operations have been delayed. While the Company expects to resolve all Year 2000 risks without a material adverse effect on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate success of the program. Uncertainties exist as to the Company's ability to detect all Year 2000 problems as well as its ability to achieve successful and timely resolution of all Year 2000 issues. Uncertainties also exist concerning the preparedness of the Company's critical suppliers to avoid Year 2000 related service and delivery interruptions. A "reasonably likely worst case" scenario of Year 2000 risks for the Company could include isolated performance problems with manufacturing or administrative systems, isolated interruption of deliveries from critical suppliers, and product liability issues. The consequences of these issues may include increases in manufacturing and administrative costs until the problems are resolved, lost revenues, lower cash receipts, and product liability; however, the Company is unable to quantify the potential effect of these items on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition should some or a combination of these events come to pass.
14 Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities (SOP 98-5). This accounting standard requires that certain start-up and pre-contract award costs be expensed as incurred. The Company will report a first quarter 1999 charge of $53 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, reflecting the initial application of SOP 98-5 and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle as of January 1, 1999. In March 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use (SOP 98-1). This accounting standard, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, requires that certain costs incurred in connection with internal-use computer software projects be capitalized. The adoption of SOP 98-1 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133). This accounting standard, which is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, requires that all derivatives be recognized as either assets or liabilities at estimated fair value. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Forward-Looking Statements Statements which are not historical facts contained in this 1998 Annual Report are forward-looking statements under the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties. These risks include, in addition to the specific uncertainties referenced in this report, the effect of worldwide political and market conditions, the impact of competitive products and pricing, the timing of awards and contracts, particularly international contracts, and risks inherent with large long-term fixed price contracts. Further information regarding the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results can be found in "Item 1-Business" in Raytheon's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 1998.

20 Note A: Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Raytheon Company (Raytheon or the "Company") and all domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Revenue Recognition Sales under long-term contracts are recorded under the percentage of completion method. Costs and estimated gross margins are recorded as sales as work is performed based on the percentage that incurred costs bear to estimated total costs utilizing the most recent estimates of costs and funding. Some contracts contain incentive provisions based upon performance in relation to established targets which are recognized in the contract estimates when deemed realizable. Since many contracts extend over a long period of time, revisions in cost and funding estimates during the progress of work have the effect of adjusting earnings applicable to performance in prior periods in the current period. When the current contract estimate indicates a loss, provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the current period. Sales from TI Defense fixed price contracts in process at the time of acquisition were recorded as products were shipped or services were rendered. Revenue from aircraft sales are recognized at the time of physical delivery of the aircraft. Revenue from certain qualifying non-cancelable aircraft lease contracts are accounted for as sales-type leases. The present value of all payments, net of executory costs, are recorded as revenue, and the related costs of the aircraft are charged to cost of sales. Associated interest, using the interest method, is recorded over the term of the lease agreements. All other leases for aircraft are accounted for under the operating method wherein revenue is recorded as earned over the rental aircraft lives. Service revenue is recognized ratably over contractual periods or as services are performed. Research and Development Expenses Expenditures for company-sponsored research and development projects are expensed as incurred. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Under the Company's cash management program, checks and amounts in transit prior to December 31, 1998 were not considered reductions of cash or accounts payable until presented to the appropriate banks for payment. At December 31, 1997, checks and amounts in transit were $290 million. Cash equivalents are valued in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (SFAS No. 115). Contracts in Process Contracts in process are stated at cost plus estimated profit but not in excess of realizable value.
21 Inventories Inventories at Raytheon Aircraft are stated at the lower of cost (principally last-in, first-out) or market. All other inventories are stated at cost (principally first-in, first-out or average cost) but not in excess of realizable value. Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Major improvements are capitalized while expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and minor improvements are charged to expense. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income. Provisions for depreciation are generally computed on a combination of accelerated and straight-line methods. Depreciation provisions are based on estimated useful lives as follows: buildings - 20 to 45 years, machinery and equipment - 3 to 10 years, and equipment leased to others - 5 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the remaining life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the improvement. Goodwill Goodwill is amortized on the straight-line method over its estimated useful life, but not in excess of 40 years. The Company evaluates the possible impairment of goodwill at each reporting period based on the undiscounted projected cash flows of the related business unit. Impairment of Long-lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the related estimated undiscounted future cash flows. When an evaluation indicates that the future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset, the asset is adjusted to its estimated fair value. Investments Investments include equity ownership of 20 percent to 50 percent in affiliated companies and of less than 20 percent in other companies. Investments in affiliated companies are accounted for under the equity method, wherein the Company's share of earnings and income taxes applicable to the assumed distribution of such earnings are included in net income. Other investments are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, and certain available for sale investments are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes The Company and its domestic subsidiaries provide for federal income taxes on pretax accounting income at rates in effect under existing tax law. Foreign subsidiaries have recorded provisions for income taxes at applicable foreign tax rates in a similar manner.
22 Translation of Foreign Currencies Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, and the effects of these translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity. The balance at December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $(37) million and $(28) million, respectively. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in 1998, 1997, and 1996 were not material. Accounting Pronouncements The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS No. 130), during 1998. SFAS No. 130 established standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components, and is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity. The SFAS No. 115 valuation adjustment is shown net of tax benefits (provisions) of $3 million, $(14) million, and $8 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities (SOP 98-5). This accounting standard requires that certain start-up and pre-contract award costs be expensed as incurred. The Company will report a first quarter 1999 charge of $53 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, reflecting the initial application of SOP 98-5 and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle as of January 1, 1999. Pension Costs The Company has several pension and retirement plans covering the majority of employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. Annual charges to income are made for the cost of the plans, including current service costs, interest on projected benefit obligations, and net amortization and deferrals, increased or reduced by the return on assets. Unfunded accumulated benefit obligations are accounted for as a long-term liability on the balance sheet. The Company annually funds those pension costs which are calculated in accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations and standards issued by the Cost Accounting Standards Board. Interest Rate Swap Agreements and Foreign Exchange Contracts The Company meets its working capital requirements with a combination of variable rate short-term and fixed rate long-term financing. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with commercial banks primarily to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on short-term financing arrangements. Settlement accounting is used for interest rate swaps. The Company also enters into foreign exchange contracts to minimize fluctuations in the value of payments due to international vendors and the value of foreign currency denominated receipts. The hedges used by the Company are transaction driven and are directly related to a particular asset, liability, or transaction for which a commitment is in place. Hedge accounting is used for foreign exchange contracts. Unrealized gains and losses are classified in the same manner as the item being hedged and are recognized in income when the transaction is complete. Interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange contracts are held to maturity and no exchange-traded or over-the-counter instruments have been purchased. Cash flows are recognized in the statement of cash flows in the same category as the related item. The impact on the financial position and results of operations from likely changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates is not material due to the minimizing of risk through the hedging of transactions related to specific assets, liabilities, or commitments.
23 Employee Stock Plans Proceeds from the exercise of stock options under employee stock plans are credited to common stock at par value, and the excess is credited to additional paid-in capital. There are no charges or credits to income for stock options. The fair value at the date of award of restricted stock is credited to common stock at par value, and the excess is credited to additional paid-in capital. The fair value is also charged to income as compensation expense over the vesting period. Income tax benefits arising from restricted stock transactions, employees' premature disposition of stock option shares, and exercise of non-qualified stock options are credited to additional paid-in capital. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) in 1996. The standard defines a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock options. The pro forma net income and earnings per share effect of the fair value based accounting are disclosed in Note M, Employee Stock Plans. Risks and Uncertainties Companies, such as Raytheon, which are engaged in supplying defense-related equipment to the government, are subject to certain business risks peculiar to that industry. Sales to the government may be affected by changes in procurement policies, budget considerations, changing concepts of national defense, political developments abroad, and other factors. The Company has maintained a solid foundation of defense systems which meet the needs of the United States and its allies, as well as serving a broad government program base and range of commercial electronics businesses. These factors lead management to believe that there is high probability of continuation of the Company's current major defense programs. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. B. Restatement of Financial Statements On December 6, 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101), which among other guidance, clarifies certain conditions to be met in order to recognize revenue. After reexamining the terms underlying certain transactions of Raytheon Aircraft, the Company has determined that revenue related to these transactions should be reversed. In view of the cumulative effect of the unrecorded adjustment on the results of future periods, the Company has restated its annual and quarterly consolidated financial statements. The restatements were required to reverse sales that the Company believed were properly recorded as bill and hold sales when the manufacturing process was substantially complete and the rights of ownership of the aircraft had passed to the buyer, but before minor modifications had been completed and the physical delivery of the aircraft occurred. The restated financial statements reflect sales when final delivery of the aircraft occurred. As these adjustments relate to the timing of revenue recognition all reversals are recognized in later periods. The financial statements and related notes set forth in this Form 10-K/A reflect all such restatements. A summary of the impact of the restatements for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 follows (in millions except per share amounts): Results of Operations - --------------------- Year Ended Year Ended Year Ended December 31, 1998 December 31, 1997 December 31, 1996 --------------------- --------------------- --------------------- Previously As Previously As Previously As Reported Restated Reported Restated Reported Restated Net sales $19,530 $19,419 $13,673 $13,593 $12,331 $12,257 Cost of sales 15,248 15,167 10,985 10,929 9,789 9,721 Operating income 2,036 2,006 1,084 1,060 1,198 1,192 Net income 864 844 527 511 761 757 Diluted earnings per share $ 2.53 $ 2.47 $ 2.18 $ 2.11 $ 3.17 $ 3.15 Financial Position - ------------------ December 31, 1998 December 31, 1997 --------------------- --------------------- Previously As Previously As Reported Restated Reported Restated Inventories $ 1,711 $ 1,991 $ 1,837 $ 2,038 Deferred taxes 809 840 1,244 1,265 Current assets 8,637 8,965 9,233 9,155 Total assets 27,939 28,232 28,598 28,520 Advance payments 865 1,251 525 797 Accounts payable 2,091 2,071 1,845 1,844 Other accrued expenses 2,194 2,180 2,509 2,499 Current liabilities 6,680 7,032 11,215 11,176 Stockholders' equity 10,856 10,797 10,425 10,386 C. Certain Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to contracts in process, accounts payable, and goodwill to correct immaterial errors discovered in 1999. These items did not impact reported earnings but rather were balance sheet only reclassifications. The Company has also adjusted the contracts in process footnote to correct for the misclassification of the type of certain contracts between fixed price and cost (see note F).
24 Note D: Acquisitions and Divestitures The Company acquired the Texas Instruments' defense business (TI Defense) in July 1997 and merged with the defense business of Hughes Electronics Corporation (Hughes Defense) in December 1997. The following unaudited pro forma financial information combines the results of operations of Raytheon, TI Defense, and Hughes Defense as if the acquisition and merger had taken place on January 1, 1997 and January 1, 1996: (In millions except per share amounts) 1997 1996 (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales $ 21,279 $ 20,440 Net income 548 913 Basic earnings per share 1.62 2.69 Diluted earnings per share 1.60 2.65 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what the results of operations would have been if the transactions had occurred on the applicable dates indicated, do not reflect the cost and revenue synergies expected to be realized, and are not intended to be indicative of future results of operations. The Hughes transaction, valued at $9.5 billion subject to post-closing adjustments, was comprised of approximately $5.5 billion in common stock and $4.0 billion in debt, which was assumed by the merged company. Pursuant to the terms of the Master Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement"), which requires an adjustment based on net assets, the final purchase price for Hughes Defense has not been determined. Based on the terms and conditions of the Separation Agreement, the Company believes that it is entitled to a reduction in the purchase price, a position that Hughes Electronics disputes. The Company and Hughes Electronics have begun the process of negotiating a possible resolution of this matter. If the matter is not successfully resolved through negotiation, the Separation Agreement provides for binding arbitration. Accordingly, while the Company expects a reduction in purchase price from the original terms of the agreement, the amount, timing, and effect on the Company's financial position are uncertain. As a result of this uncertainty, no amounts have been recorded in the financial statements related to this gain contingency. Pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement, Hughes Electronics delivered to the Company a balance sheet for Hughes Defense (the "Closing Balance Sheet"), as of December 17, 1997, the effective time of the merger of the Company and Hughes Defense. During the course of the Company's review of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Company identified numerous items requiring adjustment. As a result of this review, as well as the accrual of additional exit costs, the Company recorded a total of approximately $1 billion of adjustments, exit costs accruals and additional goodwill during 1998. The Closing Balance Sheet included: . Contracts in process of $2,226 million, which the Company reduced by $1,170 million to record additional contract loss provisions of $693 million, other contract adjustments of $272 million, billed and unbilled contract write-offs of $139 million, and contract claim write-offs of $66 million . Inventories of $343 million, which the Company reduced by $84 million primarily to record write-offs of excess and obsolete inventory . Other current assets of $208 million, which the Company increased by $612 million primarily to record additional deferred tax assets related to the Company's adjustments to the Hughes Defense closing balance sheet . Property, plant, and equipment of $1,103 million, which the Company reduced by $78 million to record an estimated fair value adjustment . Other long-term assets of $1,023 million, which the Company increased by $119 million primarily to record an increase in the value of certain prepaid pension assets . Current liabilities of $1,701 million, which the Company increased by $931 million to record $584 million of exit costs, $245 million of adjustments for unfavorable leases, $29 million related to liabilities for employee compensation and related taxes and benefits, $14 million for additional environmental liabilities . Long-term liabilities of $1,069 million, which the Company reduced by $83 million primarily to reduce certain liabilities to estimated fair value Assets acquired in conjunction with the merger with Hughes Defense, including the adjustments noted above, include contracts in process of $1,056 million, inventories of $259 million, other current assets of $820 million, property, plant, and equipment of $1,025 million, and other assets of $1,142 million (primarily pension related). Liabilities assumed include debt of $4,033 million, current liabilities of $2,632 million, and long-term liabilities of $986 million. Goodwill resulting from the fair value of this transaction was $8,930 million. As noted above, the adjustments recorded during 1998 were made as a result of the Company's review of the Closing Balance Sheet. The Company believes many of the same types of adjustments may also have been required in the September 28, 1997 Hughes Defense balance sheet which is included in the Company's Solicitation Statement/Prospectus dated November 10, 1997. As a result, the Company believes that the September 28, 1997 Hughes Defense balance sheet may contain items that are material departures from General Accepted Accounting Principles, therefore, investors are cautioned that the pro forma combined condensed financial statements contained in the Company's November 10, 1997 Solicitation Statement/Prospectus and the unaudited pro forma financial information included above may not be representative of the combined company's actual financial position. Hughes Electronics and their independent accountants do not agree with the Company's assessment. TI Defense was acquired for $2.9 billion in cash. Assets acquired in conjunction with the acquisition of TI Defense include accounts receivable of $229 million, inventories of $223 million, other current assets of $126 million, and property, plant, and equipment of $306 million. Liabilities assumed include current liabilities of $646 million and long-term liabilities of $147 million. Goodwill resulting from the fair value of this transaction was $2,929 million. In 1998, the Company acquired AlliedSignal's Communications Systems business for $63 million. Also in 1998, the Company sold its commercial laundry business unit for $315 million in cash and $19 million in securities, its Raytheon Aircraft Montek subsidiary for $160 million, and other non-core business operations for $273 million. The net gain resulting from these dispositions was $141 million.
25 In 1997, the Company sold its home appliance, heating, air conditioning, and commercial cooking operations for $522 million. Also in 1997, the Company sold its Switchcraft and Semiconductor divisions for $183 million. The net gain resulting from these dispositions was $72 million. The Company has included in its consolidated results of operations the following acquisitions made in June 1996, under the purchase method of accounting: the aircraft modification and defense electronics businesses of Chrysler Technologies, the engineering and construction assets of Rust International, and the marine communication assets of Standard Radio AB of Sweden. The cost of the acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $584 million. No pro forma results have been presented since they would not be material to the Company's consolidated results. In April 1996, the Company sold Xyplex, its data-networking subsidiary, for $118 million in cash and securities. Note E: Restructuring and Special Charges Restructuring charges and exit costs recognized in connection with business combinations include the cost of involuntary employee termination benefits and related employee severance costs, facility closures, and other costs associated with the Company's approved plans. Employee termination benefits include severance, wage continuation, medical, and other benefits. Facility closure and related costs include disposal costs of property, plant, and equipment, lease payments, lease termination costs, and net gain or loss on sales of closed facilities. In 1998, the Company recorded restructuring and special charges totaling $252 million of which $85 million is included in cost of sales and $167 million is included in administrative and selling expenses. The charges included $33 million for costs pertaining to restructuring actions taken by the Engineering and Construction segment, $167 million for asset impairments in the Electronics businesses, and $52 million for asset impairments in the Engineering and Construction segment. In 1997, the Company recorded restructuring and special charges totaling $495 million of which $401 million is included in cost of sales and $94 million is included in administrative and selling expenses. The charges included $295 million for costs related to restructuring actions at the Electronics businesses ($220 million) and at the Engineering and Construction segment ($75 million). The charges also included $63 million for one-time costs associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Special charges of $137 million related to asset impairments in the Electronics businesses ($57 million), contract valuations in the Engineering and Construction segment ($50 million), and a permanent impairment in the Aircraft segment ($30 million). In 1996, the Company recorded a $34 million special charge, which is included in cost of sales.
26 Exit Costs and Restructuring Charges -- Electronics In January 1998, the Company announced plans to consolidate and reorganize its Electronics businesses, including the operations of Hughes Defense and TI Defense. In connection with these actions, the Company recorded $804 million of restructuring and exit costs. The Company recorded a $220 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997, including $148 million for employee separation costs and $72 million for facilities exit costs. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the estimated number of employee terminations increased by approximately 1,200 employees, primarily comprised of manufacturing employees, however, the actual cost of termination per employee was lower than the original estimate. As a result of these changes in estimate, the total cost of employee severance decreased by $37 million. Also during the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company determined that facilities exit cost would run lower than the original estimate by $30 million because many of the facility actions were progressing ahead of the original schedule. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company committed to close two additional facilities and further reduce employment by approximately 1,400 positions. The total program cost of the actions is estimated at $67 million, comprised of $14 million of severance and other employee related costs and $53 million of facility closure and related costs. The Company's revised estimate of exit costs include $125 million for employee separation costs and $95 million for facilities exit costs. The remaining $584 million of exit costs were recorded as liabilities assumed in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Costs of $300 million were recorded in 1997, reflecting the Company's initial plan related to the reorganization and consolidation of these operations. In 1998, as a result of finalization of these plans, additional exit costs of $284 million were accrued. The Company's final estimate of exit costs include $260 million for employee separation costs and $324 million for facilities exit costs. The $804 million of restructuring and exit costs provides for severance and related benefits for approximately 15,400 employees and costs to vacate and dispose of approximately 11 million square feet of facility space. The Company is exiting facility space and terminating employees made redundant as a result of the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense and the subsequent reorganization of RSC. There were no major activities that will not be continued as a result of these actions. Employee related exit costs include severance and other termination benefit costs for employees in various functional areas including manufacturing, engineering, and administration. Facility related exit costs include the costs for lease termination, building closure and disposal, and equipment disposition. Exit costs accrued in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense also include employee relocation and program moves. Owned facilities that will be vacated in connection with the restructuring activities will be sold. The Company will terminate leases or sublease space for non-owned facilities vacated in connection with restructuring. The Company expects to essentially complete these actions by the end of 1999. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required. Note S to the financial statements contains additional information pertaining to these restructuring actions.

27 In addition to the $241 million of restructuring and exit costs incurred in 1998, the Company also incurred $56 million of capital expenditures and period expenses in 1998 related to the implementation of the Electronics businesses consolidation and reorganization. Note O contains additional disclosures related to Electronics exit costs and restructuring activity by segment. Restructuring Charges -- Engineering and Construction In January 1998, the Company announced plans to reduce the Raytheon Engineers & Constructors (RE&C) workforce by 1,000 employees and to close or partially close 16 offices, or approximately 1.1 million square feet of facilities. In connection with these actions and other committed but unannounced actions, the Company recorded a $75 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997. The restructuring charge included $31 million for employee severance for approximately 2,300 people, including the 1,000 positions announced in January 1998, and $44 million for facilities exit. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company modified the plan for RE&C that was committed to in January 1998 to close fewer facilities than originally estimated. As a result of this modification, the number of employee terminations was reduced from approximately 2,300 to approximately 1,400 and the total cost of employee severance decreased by $11 million. Because higher than expected facility exit costs were incurred at the locations being closed the total estimated cost of facilities exit increased by $11 million. In October 1998, the Company also announced plans for an additional 260 person reduction in the RE&C workforce and recorded an additional $33 million restructuring charge. The employee reductions, expected to be completed within one year, primarily affected engineering, business development, and administrative employees. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required.

28 Special Charges In the second quarter of 1998, the Company's partner in a Commercial Electronics joint venture in Korea began to experience financial difficulties. As a result, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment of its investment in the joint venture, reducing the book value of the investment to estimated fair value. During the third quarter of 1998, the financial condition of the joint venture deteriorated further, and the Company recorded an additional $83 million special charge to exit a line of business, which included writing off its remaining investment in the Korean joint venture. The Company's partner in this joint venture has filed for company reorganization, the Korean equivalent of Chapter 11 protection from creditors. As such, the Company does not expect to realize any future benefits from its remaining partnership interest in this joint venture. The remaining assets related to the joint venture consist of $20 million of inventory and a $20 million receivable. Any remaining exposure related to the operations of the joint venture is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In 1998, the Company also recorded a $52 million special charge for asset impairment related to the RE&C restructuring actions to exit two operations which are scheduled to be closed in 1999. The charge includes $45 million of goodwill associated with one of the operations to be exited and $7 million for the estimated loss on disposition of the other operation. Also in 1998, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to write down the assets of two operations in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell to estimated fair value of approximately $125 million. One sale was completed during 1998. The other sale is expected to close in 1999. The operating results, which are not material, continue to be included in the Company's results of operations. In 1997, the Company recorded a $63 million special charge primarily for one-time costs in the Electronics businesses associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. The Company also recorded a $57 million special charge primarily to write down to estimated fair value certain assets in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell. The sale of these assets was completed in 1998 and the proceeds and loss on disposition were not material. Also in 1997, the Company recorded a $50 million special charge for contract valuations at RE&C and a $30 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment at Raytheon Aircraft. In 1996, the Company recorded a $34 million special charge to close a Major Appliances operation.
29 Note F: Contracts in Process (In millions) Contracts in process consisted of the following at December 31, 1998: Cost Type Fixed Price Type Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. government end-use contracts Billed $ 367 $ 562 $ 929 Unbilled 873 4,205 5,078 Less progress payments -- (2,753) (2,753) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 1,240 2,014 3,254 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other customers Billed 128 670 798 Unbilled 94 1,205 1,299 Less progress payments -- (492) (492) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 222 1,383 1,605 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 1,462 $ 3,397 $ 4,859 =============================================================================== (In millions) Contracts in process consisted of the following at December 31, 1997: Cost Type Fixed Price Type Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. government end-use contracts Billed $ 534 $ 400 $ 934 Unbilled 314 3,519 3,833 Less progress payments -- (1,968) (1,968) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 848 1,951 2,799 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other customers Billed 70 321 391 Unbilled 210 1,237 1,447 Less progress payments -- (276) (276) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 280 1,282 1,562 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 1,128 $ 3,233 $ 4,361 =============================================================================== The U.S. government has a security title to unbilled amounts associated with contracts that provide for progress payments. Unbilled amounts are primarily recorded on the percentage of completion method and are recoverable from the customer upon shipment of the product, presentation of billings, or completion of the contract. Included in contracts in process at December 31, 1998 is approximately $210 million related to unapproved change orders and claims on construction contracts. Unapproved change orders and claims, primarily due to owner-directed changes, owner-caused delays, unforeseen conditions or similar reasons, are included in contracts in process at their estimated realizable value. Management believes that Raytheon has contractual or legal bases for pursuing recovery of these unapproved change orders and claims and that collection is probable. The settlement of these amounts depends on individual circumstances and negotiations with the counterparty; accordingly, the timing of the collection will vary and approximately $160 million of collections are expected to extend beyond one year. Billed and unbilled contracts in process include retentions arising from contractual provisions. At December 31, 1998, retentions amounted to $279 million and are anticipated to be collected as follows: 1999-$132 million, 2000-$90 million, and the balance thereafter.
30 Note G: Inventories (In millions) Inventories consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finished goods $ 317 $ 314 Work in process 1,193 1,541 Materials and purchased parts 746 509 Excess of current cost over LIFO values (148) (154) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2,108 2,210 Less progress payments (117) (172) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ 1,991 $ 2,038 ============================================================================== Included in inventories are amounts related to certain fixed price contracts under which sales are recorded as products are shipped. The inventory values from which the excess of current cost over LIFO values are deductible were $880 million and $704 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Note H: Property, Plant, and Equipment (In millions) Property, plant, and equipment consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Land $ 70 $ 78 Buildings and leasehold improvements 1,828 1,754 Machinery and equipment 2,376 3,299 Equipment leased to others 201 119 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4,475 5,250 Less accumulated depreciation and amortization (2,200) (2,359) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $2,275 $2,891 ============================================================================== Depreciation expense was $380 million, $318 million, and $276 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. During September 1998, the Company entered into a $490 million property sale and five-year operating lease facility. Accumulated depreciation of equipment leased to others was $10 million and $8 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Future minimum lease payments from non-cancelable aircraft operating leases, which extend to 2013, amounted to $90 million.
31 At December 31, 1998, these payments were due as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (In millions) 1999 $ 16 2000 16 2001 16 2002 13 2003 8 Thereafter 21 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note I: Other Assets (In millions) Other assets consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Long-term receivables Due from customers in installments to 2012 $ 222 $ 148 Sales-type leases, due in installments to 2015 20 27 Other, principally due through 2007 42 42 Investments 387 372 Prepaid pension and other noncurrent assets 1,925 2,049 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ 2,596 $ 2,638 ============================================================================== The Company provides long-term financing principally to its aircraft customers. Long-term receivables include commuter airline receivables of $113 million and $63 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Since it is the Company's policy to have the aircraft serve as collateral for the commuter airline receivables, the Company does not expect to incur any material losses against the net book value of the long-term receivables. The Company sells receivables, including government short-term receivables, general and commuter aviation long-term receivables, and engineering and construction short-term receivables, to a bank syndicate and other financial institutions. The banks have a first priority claim on all proceeds, including the underlying equipment and any insurance proceeds, and have recourse against the Company, at varying percentages, depending upon the character of the receivables sold. For the general and commuter aviation long-term receivables, the underlying aircraft serve as collateral for the aircraft receivables, and the future resale value of the aircraft is an important consideration in the transaction. Based on experience to date with resale activities and pricing, the Company believes that any liability arising from these transactions will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.
32 In connection with the sale of receivables, the following special purpose entities had been established as of December 31, 1998: Raytheon Receivables, Inc., Raytheon Aircraft Receivables Corporation, and Raytheon Engineers & Constructors Receivables Corporation. The Company sells receivables through these special purpose entities, retains the servicing rights, and receives a servicing fee which is recognized as collected over the remaining term of the related receivables sold. Estimated gains or losses from the sale of receivables are recognized in the period in which the sale occurs. In determining the gain or loss on each qualifying sale of receivables, the investment in the sold receivable pool is allocated between the portion sold and the portion retained based on their relative estimated fair values at the date of sale. The retained interest includes servicing rights, interest only strips, and subordinated certificates. These financial instruments are recorded at estimated fair value. The balance of receivables sold to banks or financial institutions outstanding at December 31, 1998 and 1997, was $3,002 million and $2,909 million, respectively. No material gain or loss resulted from the sales of receivables. Note J: Notes Payable and Long-term Debt (In millions) Debt consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes payable at a weighted average interest rate of 6.71% for 1998 and 6.30% for 1997 $ 34 $ 3,641 Commercial paper at a weighted average interest rate of 5.91% for 1998 and 6.46% for 1997 785 2,010 Current portion of long-term debt 8 5 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes payable and current portion of long-term debt 827 5,656 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes due through 2005, 5.70% to 6.50%, not redeemable prior to maturity 3,557 2,206 Notes due from 2007 to 2010, 6.15% to 6.75%, redeemable at any time 2,002 957 Debentures due from 2010 to 2028, 6.00% to 7.375%, redeemable at varying dates 2,212 826 Commercial paper backed by five year fixed for variable interest rate swap at 6.40% 375 375 Other notes with varying interest rates 25 47 Less installments due within one year (8) (5) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-term debt 8,163 4,406 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total debt $8,990 $10,062 ===============================================================================
33 In 1998, the Company issued $500 million of 5.95% notes due in 2001, $450 million of 6.30% notes due in 2005, $400 million of 5.70% notes due in 2003, $750 million of 6.15% notes due in 2008, $300 million of 6.55% notes due in 2010, $250 million of 6.00% debentures due in 2010, $550 million of 6.40% debentures due in 2018, $350 million of 6.75% debentures due in 2018, and $250 million of 7.00% debentures due in 2028. The proceeds from these issues were used for acquisition refinancing and to reduce short-term borrowings. In 1997, the Company issued $500 million of 7.20% debentures due in 2027, $1,000 million of 6.75% notes due in 2007, $1,000 million of 6.45% notes due in 2002, and $500 million of 6.30% notes due in 2000. The proceeds from these issues were used for acquisition financing. Commercial paper in the amount of $375 million has been classified as long-term due to Company borrowings of that amount which are supported by a five year Syndicated Bank Credit Agreement combined with a five year fixed for variable interest rate swap which matures during 2000. Excluding commercial paper classified as long-term, the aggregate amounts of installments due on long-term debt for the next five years are: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1999 $ 8 2000 877 2001 502 2002 1,002 2003 403 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lines of credit with certain commercial banks totaling $4.4 billion at December 31, 1998 exist as standby facilities to support the issuance of commercial paper by the Company. At December 31, 1998, there were no borrowings under these lines of credit. At December 31, 1997, the Company had lines of credit totaling $9.0 billion as a source of direct borrowing and as a standby facility to support the issuance of commercial paper of which $3.5 billion was outstanding. Credit lines or commitments with banks were maintained by subsidiary companies amounting to $202 million and $252 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Compensating balance arrangements are not material. The principal amounts of long-term debt were reduced by debt issue discounts and interest rate hedging costs of $76 million and $105 million respectively, on the date of issuance, and are reflected as follows at: (In millions) December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Principal $8,317 $4,542 Unamortized issue discounts (66) (38) Unamortized interest rate hedging costs (88) (98) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-term debt $8,163 $4,406 ===============================================================================
34 The Company has bank agreement covenants. The most restrictive requires that the earnings before interest and taxes be at least three times net interest expense for the prior four quarters. The Company was in compliance with this covenant during 1998, 1997, and 1996. Total interest payments were $778 million, $295 million, and $257 million for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Note K: Federal and Foreign Income Taxes Income reported for federal and foreign tax purposes differs from pretax accounting income due to variations between Internal Revenue Code requirements and the Company's accounting practices. The provisions for federal and foreign income taxes in 1998, 1997, and 1996 consisted of the following: (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 (Restated) (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current income tax expense Federal $ 46 $191 $170 Foreign 7 9 34 Deferred income tax expense (benefit) Federal 549 53 149 Foreign (9) 2 (33) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $593 $255 $320 =============================================================================== The provision for income taxes in 1998, 1997, and 1996 differs from the U.S. statutory rate due to the following: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tax at statutory rate 35.0% 35.0% 35.0% Research and development tax credit (0.3) (2.2) (4.6) Foreign sales corporation tax benefit (1.3) (2.2) (2.5) Goodwill amortization 7.9 3.3 1.7 Other, net -- (0.6) 0.1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 41.3% 33.3% 29.7% =============================================================================== In 1998, 1997, and 1996, domestic profit before taxes amounted to $1,401 million, $719 million, and $1,055 million, respectively, and foreign profit before taxes amounted to $36 million, $47 million, and $22 million, respectively. Cash (refunds) payments were $(16) million, $169 million, and $275 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. In 1998 and 1997, net deferred tax assets were increased by $371 million and $393 million, respectively, in connection with acquisitions and subsequent adjustments to acquisitions.
35 Deferred federal and foreign income taxes consisted of the following at: (In millions) December 31: 1998 1997 (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current deferred tax assets (liabilities) Inventory and other $ 115 $ 465 Long-term contracts 459 582 Restructuring reserves 262 126 Inventory capitalization (27) (24) Other 31 85 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net current deferred tax assets 840 1,234 Current period tax prepaid 31 Deferred federal and foreign income taxes -- current $ 840 $1,265 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Noncurrent deferred tax assets (liabilities) Depreciation $(159) $ (284) Revenue on leases (104) (75) Pension (521) (588) Postretirement benefits 249 247 Other (26) (86) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred federal and foreign income taxes -- noncurrent $(561) $ (786) =============================================================================== At December 31, 1998, $105 million of taxes payable was included in accounts payable. Note L: Commitments and Contingencies At December 31, 1998, the Company had commitments under long-term leases requiring approximate annual rentals on a net lease basis as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1999 $366 2000 331 2001 292 2002 236 2003 355 Thereafter 881 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Remaining lease payments under the Company's $490 million property sale and five-year operating lease facility, which are included in the table above, approximate $109 million in 1999, $94 million in 2000, $77 million in 2001, $63 million in 2002, and $212 million in 2003. The lease facility contains covenants that are substantially similar to those in the Company's senior credit facilities. Certain lease commitments will be terminated or reduced in connection with facility and office closures and the optimization of facility utilization. Rental expense for 1998, 1997, and 1996 amounted to $283 million, $136 million, and $113 million, respectively.
36 Defense contractors are subject to many levels of audit and investigation. Among agencies that oversee contract performance are the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Inspector General, the Defense Criminal Investigative Service, the General Accounting Office, the Department of Justice, and Congressional Committees. Over recent years, the Department of Justice has convened Grand Juries from time to time to investigate possible irregularities by the Company in government contracting. Such investigations, individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company self-insures for losses and expenses for aircraft product liability up to a maximum of $50 million annually. Insurance is purchased from third parties to cover excess aggregate liability exposure from $50 million to $1.2 billion. This coverage also includes the excess of liability over $10 million per occurrence. The aircraft product liability reserve was $30 million at December 31, 1998. Recurring costs associated with the Company's environmental compliance program are not material and are expensed as incurred. Capital expenditures in connection with environmental compliance are not material. The Company is involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup relative to remediation of various sites. All appropriate costs expected to be incurred in connection therewith have been accrued at December 31, 1998. Due to the complexity of environmental laws and regulations, the varying costs and effectiveness of alternative cleanup methods and technologies, the uncertainty of insurance coverage, and the unresolved extent of the Company's responsibility, it is difficult to determine the ultimate outcome of these matters; however, any additional liability is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations after giving effect to provisions previously recorded. The Company issues guarantees and has banks issue, on its behalf, letters of credit to meet various bid, performance, warranty, retention, and advance payment obligations. Approximately $1,527 million, $1,148 million, and $1,363 million of these contingent obligations, net of related outstanding advance payments, were outstanding at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. These instruments expire on various dates through the year 2005. Pursuant to the terms of the Master Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement"), which requires an adjustment based on net assets, the final purchase price for Hughes Defense has not been determined. Based on the terms and conditions of the Separation Agreement, the Company believes that it is entitled to a reduction in the purchase price, a position that Hughes Electronics disputes. The Company and Hughes Electronics have begun the process of negotiating a possible resolution of this matter. If the matter is not successfully resolved through negotiation, the Separation Agreement provides for binding arbitration. Accordingly, while the Company expects a reduction in purchase price from the original terms of the agreement, the amount, timing, and effect on the Company's financial position are uncertain. As a result of this uncertainty, no amounts have been recorded in the financial statements related to this gain contingency. In addition, various claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or threatened against the Company. While the ultimate liability from these proceedings is presently indeterminable, any additional liability is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations after giving effect to provisions already recorded.
37 Note M: Employee Stock Plans The 1976 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of both incentive and nonqualified stock options at an exercise price which is 100 percent of the fair value on the date of grant. No further grants are allowed under this plan. The 1991 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options at an exercise price which is 100 percent of the fair value, and nonqualified stock options at an exercise price which may be less than the fair value on the date of grant. The 1995 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of both incentive and nonqualified stock options at an exercise price which is not less than 100 percent of the fair value on the date of grant. The plans also provide that all stock options may be exercised in their entirety 12 to 24 months after the date of grant. Incentive stock options terminate 10 years from the date of grant, and those stock options granted after December 31, 1986 become exercisable to a maximum of $100,000 per year. Nonqualified stock options terminate 11 years from the date of grant or 10 years and a day if issued in connection with the 1995 Stock Option Plan. In 1997, the Company issued conversion stock options covering 4.8 million shares in substitution of nonqualified stock options held by employees of TI Defense and Hughes Defense. In accordance with the terms of the original grants, these replacement stock options have remaining exercise periods of up to nine years and become exercisable at various times through January 2001. The 1991 Stock Plan also provides for the award of restricted stock and restricted units. The 1997 Nonemployee Directors Restricted Stock Plan provides for the award of restricted stock to nonemployee directors. Restricted awards are made at prices determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and are compensatory in nature. Restricted stock and restricted unit awards vest over a specified period of time of not less than one year and not more than 10 years. No further grants are allowed under the 1991 Stock Plan, 1995 Stock Option Plan, and 1997 Nonemployee Directors Restricted Stock Plan after March 26, 2001, March 21, 2005, and November 25, 2006, respectively. Restricted stock awards entitle the participant to full dividend and voting rights. Unvested shares are restricted as to disposition and subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting periods. Awards of 541,100, 315,900, and 19,500 shares of restricted stock and restricted units were made to employees and directors at a weighted average value at the grant date of $57.21, $47.92, and $50.87 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. There were 834,900, 1,678,700, and 1,443,400 shares of restricted stock and restricted units outstanding at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The amount of compensation expense recorded was $15 million, $22 million, and $7 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. In 1997, $12 million of compensation expense was related to accelerated vesting of restricted stock as a result of the merger with Hughes Defense. There were 53.7 million, 52.8 million, and 49.6 million shares of common stock (including shares held in treasury) reserved for stock options and restricted stock awards at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The 1976 Stock Option Plan, 1991 Stock Plan, 1995 Stock Option Plan, and 1997 Nonemployee Directors Restricted Stock Plan utilize Class B common stock.
38 Information for 1998, 1997, and 1996 follows: Weighted Average (Share amounts in thousands) Shares Option Price - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1995 10,781 $30.63 Granted 3,890 52.53 Exercised (1,845) 26.91 Expired (256) 45.47 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1996 12,570 $37.65 Granted 8,950 43.84 Exercised (1,698) 31.18 Expired (312) 49.13 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1997 19,510 $40.87 Granted 6,945 55.54 Exercised (2,917) 35.44 Expired (816) 51.13 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1998 22,722 $45.68 =============================================================================== The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding at December 31, 1998 (share amounts in thousands): - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Options Outstanding Options Exercisable - ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ Weighted Shares Average Weighted Shares Weighted Outstanding Contractual Average Exercisable Average Exercise at December 31, Remaining Exercise at December 31, Exercise Price Range 1998 Life Price 1998 Price - ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ $14.51 to $29.63 2,705 5.2 years $22.65 2,537 $22.41 $31.13 to $49.75 6,589 6.8 years $38.27 5,355 $36.68 $51.06 to $54.69 7,156 7.6 years $52.14 6,921 $52.11 $55.59 to $59.31 6,272 9.5 years $56.02 134 $56.16 - ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ Total 22,722 14,947 ===================================================== ======================== Shares exercisable at the corresponding weighted average exercise price at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, were 14.9 million at $41.58, 13.0 million at $37.35, and 8.8 million at $31.32.
39 The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for its stock-based compensation plans other than for restricted stock. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized for the stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans, consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have approximated the pro forma amounts indicated below: (In millions except per share amounts) 1998 1997 1996 (Restated) (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income-as reported $ 844 $ 511 $ 757 Net income-pro forma $ 800 $ 468 $ 735 Basic earnings per share- as reported $2.50 $2.14 $3.20 pro forma $2.37 $1.96 $3.11 Diluted earnings per share- as reported $2.47 $2.11 $3.15 pro forma $2.34 $1.93 $3.06 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The weighted average fair value of each option granted in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, is estimated as $10.40, $17.41, and $10.79 on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expected life 4 years Assumed annual dividend growth rate (5 year historical rate) 6% Expected volatility 15% Risk free interest rate (month-end yields on 4 year treasury strips equivalent zero coupon) 4.4% to 5.7% range Assumed annual forfeiture rate 5% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The effects of applying SFAS No. 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts. SFAS No. 123 does not apply to awards prior to 1995, and additional awards in future years are anticipated. Note N: Pension and Other Employee Benefits The Company has several pension and retirement plans covering the majority of its employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. The major plans provide pension benefits that are based on the five highest consecutive years of the employee's annual compensation in the ten years before retirement. Some of the plans covering hourly and union employees also contain provisions based upon a stated benefit amount per year of service. The Company's funding policy, for the majority of the plans, is to contribute annually at a rate that is intended to remain at a level percentage of compensation for the covered employees. Unfunded prior service costs under the funding policy are generally amortized over periods from 10 to 30 years.
40 Total pension expense includes foreign pension expense of $10 million, $11 million, and $10 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Plan assets consist primarily of equity securities (including 13,919,000 shares of Raytheon Company Class A and Class B common stock combined, with a fair value of $736 million at December 31, 1998) and fixed income securities (including $15 million of Raytheon Company 6.75% notes due in 2007). In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Substantially all of the Company's U.S. employees may become eligible for these benefits if they reach normal retirement age while working for the Company. Some of the retiree health plans are paid for, in part, by retiree contributions, which are adjusted annually. Benefits are provided through various insurance companies whose charges are based either on the benefits paid during the year or annual premiums. Health benefits are provided to retirees, their covered dependents, and beneficiaries. Retiree life insurance plans cover the retiree only. In 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions. At adoption, some of the plans began amortizing past service cost over 20 years, while others recognized the past service cost immediately. The Company is funding the liability for certain salaried and hourly employees and plans to continue to do so. The information presented below includes the effect of acquisitions, subsequent adjustments to acquisitions, and divestitures. Effective December 31, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 132, Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits. This accounting standard revised the disclosure requirements for pension and other postretirement benefit plans.

The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation, and fair value of plan assets for the pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $515 million, $483 million, and $151 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1998 and $350 million, $322 million, and $47 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1997. Under the terms of various savings and investment plans (defined contribution plans), covered employees are allowed to contribute up to a specific percentage of their pay, generally limited to $30,000 per year. The Company matches the employee's contribution, up to a maximum of generally between three and four percent of the employee's pay. Total expense for defined contribution plans was $121 million, $78 million, and $71 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in 1998 expense is attributable to the merger with Hughes Defense in December 1997.
43 The Company's annual contribution to the Raytheon Employee Stock Ownership Plans is approximately one-half of one percent of salaries and wages, limited to $160,000, of most United States salaried and hourly employees. The expense was $18 million, $15 million, and $15 million and the number of shares allocated to participant accounts was 271,000, 290,000, and 296,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Note O: Business Segment Reporting The Company operates in three major business areas: Electronics, both defense and commercial, Engineering and Construction, and Aircraft. The Company is a leader in defense electronics, including missiles; radar; sensors and electro-optics; reconnaissance, surveillance and intelligence; command, control, communication, and information; training; simulation and services; naval and air traffic control systems; and aircraft integration systems. The Engineering and Construction segment offers full-service engineering and construction capabilities to clients worldwide. The Aircraft segment is one of the leading providers of business and special mission aircraft and delivers a broad line of jet, turboprop, and piston-powered airplanes to corporate and military customers worldwide. The Major Appliances segment was substantially divested in 1997 with the remaining operations sold in 1998. As a result of these dispositions, the Company has included the remaining operations of the Major Appliances segment within Total Electronics in 1998 and 1997. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS No. 131) during the fourth quarter of 1998. SFAS No. 131 established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information about operating segments. It also established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and geographic areas. Reportable segments within Electronics have been determined based upon product lines and include the following: Defense Systems; Sensors and Electronics Systems; Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems; Command, Control, and Communication Systems; Training and Services; Commercial Electronics, and Other. Certain operating segments within Electronics have been aggregated as they exhibit similar long-term financial performance characteristics and do not meet the quantitative threshold. Of the four identifiable segments within Total Electronics, all except Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems have combined operations of Hughes Defense, TI Defense and Raytheon. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed a reorganization of certain business segments to better align the operations with customer needs and to eliminate management redundancy. The Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems segment, with the exception of its Aircraft Integration Systems division, will merge with Command, Control, and Communication Systems to create Command, Control, Communication, and Information Systems. The Aircraft Integration Systems division was established as a separate segment called Aircraft Integration Systems. This organizational change will be reflected in the Company's 1999 financial statements.

(5) Includes special charges of $30 million. (6) Includes special charges of $34 million. Identifiable assets attributed to Unallocated Electronics Items primarily consist of goodwill and prepaid pension. While these assets have not been allocated back to the segments, the associated income statement impact, including goodwill amortization, has been included in the determination of the Electronics segments operating income. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated at the segment level for sales and operating income. Intercompany receivables are included in identifiable assets. Change in net debt represents the Company's internal criteria for evaluating cash flow performance by the segments. This amount includes intercompany balances that are eliminated in consolidation and is not necessarily representative of actual cash flows determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Information for the segments that comprise Total Electronics and all information related to the change in net debt has not been presented for 1997 and 1996, because the Company determined that it was impracticable to obtain the comparative information due to the significant acquisitions, divestitures, and reorganizations that took place during 1998 and 1997.

The impact of these items combined was a net charge of $284 million after-tax, or $1.14 per share. Note: Earnings per share are computed independently for each of the quarters presented; therefore, the sum of the quarterly earnings per share may not equal the total computed for the year. Note Q: Financial Instruments The carrying value of certain financial instruments, including cash, cash equivalents, and short-term debt approximates estimated fair value due to their short maturities and varying interest rates of the debt. The carrying value of notes receivable approximates estimated fair value based principally on the underlying interest rates and terms, maturities, collateral, and credit status of the receivables. The carrying values of investments are based on quoted market prices or the present value of future cash flows and earnings which approximate estimated fair value. The value of guarantees and letters of credit approximates estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of long-term debt was based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt with the same remaining maturities and approximates the carrying value.
48 At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had outstanding interest rate swap agreements and foreign currency forward exchange contracts which minimized or eliminated risk associated with interest rate changes or foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. All of these financial instruments were related to specific transactions and particular assets or liabilities for which a firm commitment existed. These instruments were executed with credit-worthy institutions and the majority of the foreign currencies were denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. The following table summarizes major currencies and the approximate contract amounts associated with foreign exchange contracts at December 31: (In millions) 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buy Sell Buy Sell British Pounds $138 $100 $ 70 $ 27 Netherlands Guilders 41 89 45 -- German Marks 40 27 71 19 Canadian Dollars 20 50 13 66 Swiss Francs 12 85 -- 8 Norwegian Kroner 100 -- -- -- All other 49 25 57 49 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $400 $376 $256 $169 =============================================================================== "Buy" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to purchase foreign currencies and "sell" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to sell foreign currencies. Foreign exchange contracts that do not involve U.S. dollars have been converted to U.S. dollars for disclosure purposes. Swap contracts were $383 million and $386 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Swap contracts outstanding at December 31, 1998 mature during 2000 and essentially fix the interest rates on a portion of variable rate debt. Under these agreements, the Company will pay the counterparties interest at a weighted average fixed rate of 6.5%, and the counterparties will pay the Company at a variable rate primarily equal to three-month LIBOR. The weighted average variable rate applicable to these agreements was 5.2% at December 31, 1998. Foreign exchange forward contracts, used primarily to minimize fluctuations in the values of foreign currency payments and receipts, have maturities at various dates through June 2003 as follows: $678 million in 1999 $ 70 million in 2000 $ 4 million in 2001 $ 11 million in 2002 $ 13 million in 2003 Estimated fair values for the swap contracts and foreign exchange contracts total $13 million.
49 Note R: Stockholders' Equity The Company has two classes of common stock-Class A and Class B. For all matters other than the election and removal of directors, Class A and Class B stockholders have equal voting rights. For the election or removal of directors only, the Class A stockholders have 80.1 percent of the total voting power and the Class B stockholders have the remaining 19.9 percent. Class A and Class B stockholders are entitled to receive the same amount per share of any dividends declared. Immediately following any dividend, split, subdivision, or other distribution of shares of Class A or Class B common stock, the number of shares must bear the same relationship to each other as immediately prior to such distribution. Except as indicated above, the rights of Class A and Class B stockholders are identical. In December 1997, the Company issued 102.6 million shares of Class A common stock and converted each share of Raytheon common stock into one share of Class B common stock in connection with its merger with Hughes Defense. The Company has agreed with the former parent of Hughes Defense that it will not propose a plan of recapitalization or certain other equity transactions that would adversely affect the tax free status of the merger. In December 1997, the Company retired 71.1 million shares of Class B common stock previously held in treasury. Prior to this retirement, the excess of cost over par value of treasury stock was charged proportionally to additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. In February 1995, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 12 million shares of the Company's common stock and in January 1998, the Board of Directors ratified and reauthorized the repurchase of the remaining 2.5 million shares originally authorized. There have been 11 million shares purchased under these authorizations through December 31, 1998. There were 1.7 million shares repurchased under this program during 1998. In January 1998, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 5 million shares of the Company's common stock per year to counter the dilution due to the exercise of stock options. There were 2.9 million shares repurchased under this program during 1998 to offset 2.9 million shares issued due to the exercise of stock options. In November 1992, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 4 million shares of the Company's common stock per year over the next five years to counter the dilution due to the exercise of stock options. During 1997, outstanding shares were reduced by the repurchase of 1.7 million shares on the open market to offset 1.7 million shares issued due to the exercise of stock options. Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Class A and B common stock have been aggregated in the basic and diluted EPS calculation which follows:
50 1998 1997 1996 (Restated) (Restated) (Restated) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income for basic and diluted EPS $ 844 $ 511 $ 757 Share information (in thousands) Average common shares outstanding for basic EPS 337,882 238,915 236,600 Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock 3,979 2,971 3,565 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shares for diluted EPS 341,861 241,886 240,165 Basic EPS $ 2.50 $ 2.14 $ 3.20 Diluted EPS $ 2.47 $ 2.11 $ 3.15 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stock options to purchase 6.7 million, 8.2 million, and 3.7 million shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the stock options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company's common stock during the year. Note S: Subsequent Events In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company took a charge for $220 million for a series of restructuring actions. In the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company determined that the cost of these initiatives would be $65 million lower than originally planned. The reduction in the estimated costs related to lower than anticipated costs for severance and facilities. The primary reasons for the reduction in severance costs include a shift in the composition of severed employees, higher attrition resulting in the need for fewer severed employees, and more employees transferring to other locations within the Company. The estimated costs related to facilities were lower than anticipated due to the identification of alternative uses for assets originally identified for disposition, lower de-installation costs, and more rapid exit from facilities. Company Responsibility for Financial Statements The financial statements and related information contained in this Annual Report have been prepared by and are the responsibility of Raytheon's management. The Company's financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect judgments and estimates as to the expected effects of transactions and events currently being reported.

Burnham Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
51 The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is composed solely of outside directors. The Committee meets periodically and, when appropriate, separately with representatives of the independent accountants, Company officers, and the internal auditors to monitor the activities of each. Upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent accountants, were selected by the Board of Directors to audit the Company's financial statements and their report follows. /s/ Daniel P. Burnham Chairman of the Board of Directors Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Raytheon Company In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, of stockholders' equity, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Raytheon Company at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
