RESTATED SPECIAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN
Analysts International Corporation (the "Company") established the Special Executive Retirement Plan (the "Plan") effective as of June 21, 1984, which has been amended from time
to time. The Company further desires to amend and restate the Plan, generally effective January 1, 2005, to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations, notices and other guidance of general applicability
issued thereunder (hereinafter referred to as "Code Section 409A").
1. Purpose . The purpose of the Plan is to assist the Company's key senior executives with retirement and to encourage them to
remain in the Company's employ. The Plan is an arrangement maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees and is intended to be an unfunded arrangement for tax purposes
and purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
2. Participants . The Board of Directors of the Company shall, from time to time, select those key senior executives who shall participate
in the Plan (hereinafter referred to as a "Participant"). Exhibit A reflects those key senior executives who have been selected to participate in the Plan as of December 30, 2005.
3. Amount of Benefit; Bookkeeping Accounts
a. Initial Account Balance . For each Participant, the Company shall calculate the present value of all benefits
accrued by such Participant under the Plan as it read prior to this restatement as of December 30, 2005, using a discount rate of 6%. Such amount shall be credited to a bookkeeping account (the "Deferred Compensation
Account" ) in the name of the Participant.
b. Basic Employer Contributions . Effective for Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 2006, the Company
shall make a basic employer contribution to the Participant's Company Contribution Account, which is a subaccount of the Participant's Deferred Compensation Account. Such basic employer contribution shall be determined according to the
following schedule:
Chief Executive Officer 20% of Base Salary
All Other Executive Officers 15% of Base Salary
c. Supplemental Employer Contributions . Effective for Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 2006,
the Company may, in its discretion, credit additional amounts to the Participant's Company Contribution Account. The amount of such additional contribution, if any, shall be determined by the Company's Board of Directors, and may be determined
based on the Participant's or the Company's performance.
d. Participant Deferrals . A Participant may file, on a form prescribed by the Company, prior to the later of (i) the first day of the
Plan Year, and (ii) the 31st day after the key senior executive employee first becomes a Participant, an irrevocable election to defer the receipt of up to 50% of the base salary and up to 100% of the bonus compensation payable to the Participant during
such Plan Year. Such election shall apply only to compensation or fees earned for services performed after the election is filed. Amounts so deferred shall be credited to the Participant's Salary Deferral Account, which
is a subaccount of the Participant's Deferred Compensation Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant' s election shall be immediately revoked if the Participant receives a hardship distribution from
the Company's 401(k) Plan.
e. Value of Deferred Compensation Account . The value of a Participant's Deferred Compensation Account
at any time shall be the sum of the Salary Deferral Account and Company Contribution Account, adjusted as follows:
i. Company Contribution Account . The Participant's Company Contribution
Account shall be adjusted for interest, compounded annually, at a rate equal to the 10-year Treasury bill rate in effect as of the January 1st of each year plus 1%, 2% or 3%, as determined by the Board of Directors and communicated to Participants from
time to time. Such interest adjustments shall continue until all amounts credited to such Account have been distributed as provided in Section 5 below.
ii. Salary Deferral Account .
a. The Participant's Salary Deferral Account shall
be adjusted for interest, compounded annually, at a rate equal to the 10-year Treasury bill rate in effect as of the January 1st of each year plus 1%, 2% or 3%, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors and communicated to Participants
from time to time. Such interest adjustments shall continue until all amounts credited to such Account have been distributed as provided in Section 5 below.
b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in
its sole discretion, provide for the adjustment of the Participant's Salary Deferral Account for investment earnings and losses calculated by assuming that the Participant has invested his or her Salary Deferral Account in one or more investment
funds selected by the Participant from a list of investment funds made available by the Company. The Company may, at any time and in its sole discretion, change the investment funds that it makes available, but only with respect to future periods.
The Participant may change his or her selection of investment funds from among those available at any time. Neither the Company, its Board of Directors, nor any member of the Board of Directors, nor any agent, employee or advisor of the Company shall
be liable for any decrease in the Participant's Salary Deferral Account as a result of the performance or lack thereof of any investment fund selected by the Participant.
