53 | SOUND RETIREMENT



                       Normal Retirement Age
                       Age 65, or if later, the first day of the 60th month following the
                       date on which you became a participant, unless you subsequently
                       had a permanent break in service.

                       One-Year Break in Service

                       Effective October 1, 2016, you incur a 1-year break in service
                       when you fail to work more than 500 hours in a Plan Year.  Before
                       October 1, 2016, you incur a 1-year break in service when you fail
                       to work at least 435 hours in a Plan Year. (Different rules apply to
                       breaks in service that occurred before October 1, 1976.)

                       Permanent Break in Service

                       If you are not vested, you incur a permanent break in service if
                       you have 5 or more consecutive 1-year breaks in service. Once
                       you incur a permanent break in service, all your credited service
                       and accrued pension benefits are canceled. (Different rules apply
                       to permanent breaks in service that occurred before October 1,
                       1986.)

                       Plan Year

                       The 12-month period from October 1 of any year through
                       September 30 of the following year.  Plan Year is used for
                       determining vesting and benefit accruals.

                       Spouse

                       The person to whom you are legally married. For pre-retirement
                       deaths and for retirements on or after September 16, 2013, the
                       term “spouse” includes a person of the same sex if you and that
                       person are considered legally married under the law of the state
                       where the marriage was performed, and, to the extent provided in
                       a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, a person to whom you were
                       formerly married.

                       Trustees, Board or Board of Trustees

                       accordance with the provisions of the Sound Plan and Trust
                       Agreement.
