THIS DOCUMENT CONSTITUTES PART OF A PROSPECTUS COVERING SECURITIESTHAT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.I. INTRODUCTIONThis Summary <strong>Plan</strong> Description summarizes the important provisions of the <strong>AMSEC</strong> <strong>Employees</strong><strong>401</strong>(k) <strong>Profit</strong> <strong>Sharing</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> (“<strong>Plan</strong>”). This <strong>Plan</strong> has been adopted by Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc.(the “Parent Company”) to provide a tax-qualified income deferral arrangement for Participants and toallow participating <strong>Employees</strong> to acquire additional benefits through company matching contributions.The <strong>Plan</strong> is maintained by the Parent Company for the benefit of certain individuals employed by<strong>AMSEC</strong> LLC (“<strong>AMSEC</strong>”), a subsidiary of the Parent Company. The Parent Company and <strong>AMSEC</strong>were previously subsidiaries of the Northrop Grumman Corporation, at which time the <strong>Plan</strong> wassponsored by <strong>AMSEC</strong>. On March 31, 2011, the Northrop Grumman Corporation spun-off the ParentCompany and its subsidiaries, including <strong>AMSEC</strong>, and the Parent Company became the sponsor of the<strong>Plan</strong>.This summary does not determine rights under the <strong>Plan</strong>, but is intended only to answer the mostfrequently asked questions about the <strong>Plan</strong> and to provide a description of how the <strong>Plan</strong> operates.The official <strong>Plan</strong> document sets forth your rights and obligations under the <strong>Plan</strong>. Nothing in thisSummary <strong>Plan</strong> Description should be considered as altering or affecting the provisions of the<strong>Plan</strong> document itself. Also, the <strong>Plan</strong> document may be amended without prior notice and thisSummary <strong>Plan</strong> Description may not be updated until a date later than the effective date of a<strong>Plan</strong> amendment.In very general terms, the <strong>Plan</strong> operates as follows: You may defer part of your compensation byhaving it contributed directly to the <strong>Plan</strong>, where it is maintained in your Deferral Account. Youreduce the amount of your compensation that is taxed to you by the amount you defer to the <strong>Plan</strong>.<strong>AMSEC</strong> may also elect to contribute cash to the <strong>Plan</strong> to match a percentage of your contributionsand/or to allow the <strong>Plan</strong> to satisfy legal requirements. These matching contributions are allocated toyour Company Contribution Account and are immediately vested. In addition, <strong>AMSEC</strong> maycontribute profit-sharing contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong> in an amount (determined annually) that is thenallocated to your Company Contribution Account on the basis of your eligible compensation for theyear. Your eligible compensation includes your regular salary, wages, overtime, shift differential,hazard pay and similar payments, pay while on leave or vacation, special pay approved by theCompany pursuant to its policies for extended work by salaried employees, any military differentialpay you receive from the company while serving on active duty to make up for some or all of thedifference between your active duty military pay and your higher civilian pay, post-terminationpayments for accrued vacation or sick leave that are paid by the later of the 2-1/2 months aftertermination or December 31 st of the year of termination, and any retroactive pay adjustments. Itexcludes regular bonuses. All your Accounts in the <strong>Plan</strong> are held in trust by the <strong>Plan</strong> Trustee,currently Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (“Vanguard”), and invested in the investmentalternative(s) you selected or that are designated for all or a portion of your Accounts.You are not taxed on your deferred compensation, the amount allocated to your Accounts, or anyincrease in value of your Accounts until these amounts are distributed to you from the <strong>Plan</strong>.March 20111<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


The specific terms of the <strong>Plan</strong> are set forth in the <strong>Plan</strong> document itself, which is the document thatgoverns the rights of Participants under the <strong>Plan</strong>. However, because it is not feasible to set forth in the<strong>Plan</strong> document all of the many details and procedures involved in administering the <strong>Plan</strong>, a committeeappointed by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company (referred to in this Summary <strong>Plan</strong>Description as the “Committee” or “<strong>Plan</strong> Administrator”) has been given the authority to establishprocedures for various <strong>Plan</strong> administrative functions and to interpret <strong>Plan</strong> provisions. The day-to-dayadministration of the <strong>Plan</strong> is carried out by <strong>AMSEC</strong>’s Director of Human Resources or designee.The examples in this document are for illustration purposes only and in no way guarantee or predictactual circumstances.II.

III. RETIREMENTW hen C an I R etir e?The Normal Retirement Date under the <strong>Plan</strong> is the day on which you attain age 59½. If you workbeyond that date as an eligible employee, the date you terminate employment is considered yourNormal Retirement Date, and you continue to participate in the <strong>Plan</strong> until that date.Termination of employment prior to attainment of your Normal Retirement Date is described inArticle IV, in the section “What Are the <strong>Plan</strong> <strong>Benefits</strong> and When Do I Receive Them?”IV. BENEFITSW ho P ays for <strong>Plan</strong> B enefits? H ow Ar e C ompany C ontr ibutions Allocated?As you become eligible to receive benefits, Accounts are established on your behalf. These Accountsmay include a Deferral Account, Company Contribution Account, Voluntary Account, RolloverAccount and Alternate Payee Account. In addition, employees who participated in either TheNewport News Shipbuilding, Inc. <strong>401</strong>(k) Investment <strong>Plan</strong> for Salaried <strong>Employees</strong> or the <strong>Plan</strong>ningConsultants, Inc. Savings <strong>Plan</strong> may also have various Transfer Accounts under this <strong>Plan</strong>. Unlessotherwise specified, the term “Accounts” refers to all of your Accounts under the <strong>Plan</strong>.There are nine types of contributions that may be made to your Accounts: salary deferrals, catch-upcontributions, company matching contributions, profit-sharing contributions, company discretionarycontributions, voluntary contributions, rollover contributions, special contract contributions, andmilitary make-up contributions.Note: Under applicable regulations, compensation in excess of $245,000 for 2011 (indexed forinflation) must be disregarded for all <strong>Plan</strong> purposes.1. Contribution of Your Salary Deferrals. <strong>AMSEC</strong> contributes to the <strong>Plan</strong> the amount that youelect to defer from your salary (your “Salary Deferrals”), which can be between 1% and 75% ofyour salary. If you are automatically enrolled in the <strong>Plan</strong>, your Salary Deferrals will equal 2% ofyour salary and will increase by 1% each year up to a maximum of 10% of your salary unless youelect a different deferral percentage. Your Salary Deferrals are subject to a federal maximumannual dollar amount. For 2011, the dollar limit is $16,500 (may be adjusted for the cost of livingthereafter). The amount of your Salary Deferral must be equal to or less than both the dollar limit($16,500 in 2011) and the maximum percentage (75%). In addition, a Participant who attains age50 before the last day of the <strong>Plan</strong> Year may also make an additional catch-up contribution, asdiscussed in paragraph 2, below. You may obtain information about the Salary Deferral limits forthe current year from the Vanguard website. For purposes of Salary Deferrals under the <strong>Plan</strong>,salary is defined as your salary and wages (before your salary deductions for this <strong>Plan</strong>), butexcludes any bonus.March 2011 4 <strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


When you become a Participant in the <strong>Plan</strong> by electing to make Salary Deferral (<strong>401</strong>(k))contributions, a Deferral Account is established for you. Your Salary Deferral contributions and,if applicable, your catch-up contributions for each calendar year are put in your Deferral Account.2. Catch-Up Contribution. If you will be age 50 or older by the end of the year, you can make anadditional $5,500 “catch-up” contribution for 2011 on a pre-tax basis. You can make the fullcatch-up contribution in a given year if you are at least age 50 and you will contribute the IRS pretaxdollar maximum ($16,500 in 2011).Calendar YearDollar Limit on YourSalary DeferralsDollar Limit “Catch-Up” Contributions atAge 50+Total Dollar Limit atAge 50+2011 $16,500 $5,500 $22,0003. Automatic Payroll Deduction Increase. To increase your pre-tax savings rate automaticallyeach year, sign up for the automatic payroll deduction increase. Just choose the amount of yourincrease (one to three percentage points) and the month you want it to occur. Your increasescontinue until you reach the <strong>Plan</strong>’s limit of 75% or the IRS limit.A separate Company Contribution Account will record your interest in any Company matching, profitsharing,or additional contributions, as described below.4. Company Matching Contributions. <strong>AMSEC</strong> matches 45% of what you contribute, to amaximum of $2,000 per year to your <strong>Plan</strong>. The Company’s contribution is made each pay period.These contributions are invested according to your contribution allocations or the funds youchoose. They do not have to match your current allocations.5. Company <strong>Profit</strong>-<strong>Sharing</strong> Contribution. <strong>AMSEC</strong> may, but is not obligated to, make a profitsharingcontribution. Any profit-sharing contributions are calculated separately for <strong>AMSEC</strong>employees and the employees of any Contributing Employers. Each eligible <strong>AMSEC</strong> employeewill receive a percentage of the profit-sharing contribution determined by dividing his or hersalary by the combined salary of all eligible <strong>AMSEC</strong> participants. Any profit-sharingcontributions are allocated on the last day of the <strong>Plan</strong> Year to those eligible <strong>AMSEC</strong> employeeswho were performing duties as wage-earning employees on the last day of the <strong>Plan</strong> Year and toeligible <strong>AMSEC</strong> employees who died, retired, or became disabled during such <strong>Plan</strong> Year.6. Company Discretionary Contributions. If necessary to satisfy applicable legal requirements,<strong>AMSEC</strong> may make an additional annual contribution to the <strong>Plan</strong>, which will be allocated as anequal dollar amount to all eligible “non-highly compensated” employees who were employedduring the applicable year. Non-highly compensated generally means that the employee’s annualcompensation is not in excess of a limit determined by the IRS for the previous year, adjustedperiodically for the cost of living.7. Rollover Contributions. Under rules prescribed by the Committee, eligible employees maymake rollover contributions of amounts distributed to them from qualifying retirement plans ofprior employers (including certain plans of governmental and non-profit employers). In addition,March 2011 5 <strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


if an employee receives a plan distribution as the beneficiary of his or her deceased spouse, thatdistribution may qualify as a rollover contribution. Before making a rollover contribution, youshould find out whether the rollover contribution will be accepted by the <strong>Plan</strong>. If accepted, thosefunds are treated as fully vested and are maintained in a Rollover Account until withdrawn by youor distributed due to retirement or termination of employment. You can direct the investment ofyour Rollover Account.8. Voluntary Contributions. The <strong>Plan</strong> does not permit voluntary contributions other than pre-taxSalary Deferrals, as described above. If you made voluntary (after-tax) contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong>prior to 1987, these after-tax voluntary contributions, which are always fully vested, aremaintained in a separate Voluntary Account until withdrawn by you or distributed due totermination of employment.9. Special Contract Contributions. If you work on a contract that is covered under the McNamara-O’Hare Service Contract Act (the “Act”), <strong>AMSEC</strong> may elect to contribute any fringe benefitobligation or pension obligation payable under the Act to the <strong>Plan</strong>. Special Contract Contributionsdo not depend on either your eligibility or your election to make Salary Deferrals.In the event <strong>AMSEC</strong> elects to make its contributions under the Act to the <strong>Plan</strong>, you will benotified and these contributions will be reflected in your Company Contribution Account.

If you become disabled or die during a military leave of absence, the<strong>Plan</strong> credits your account with any applicable company contributions that you would have beenentitled to if you were reemployed on the date immediately preceding your disability or death, andterminated employment on the date of your disability or death. The company contributions will bedetermined based on your average deposits for the 12 months immediately preceding your militaryleave of absence or, if shorter, your actual continuous period of service with the companyH ow Do Y ou C hange Y our C ontr ibution L evel?You may increase, decrease, recommence, or suspend your contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong> at any time.

LOSS OR DENIAL OF BENEFITSW hat C ir cumstances M ay R esult in M y Disqualification, I neligibility, Denial, L oss,F or feitur e or Suspension of <strong>Benefits</strong>?The following factors (other than those previously discussed) may affect your eligibility for, and theamount of, benefits under the <strong>Plan</strong>.1. Change in Job Classification. Changes in your job classification such as promotions ordemotions will not, in general, affect your ability to participate in the <strong>Plan</strong>. If you transfer from<strong>AMSEC</strong> within the Parent Company, you no longer will be eligible to contribute to the <strong>Plan</strong>. Sucha transfer is not considered a termination of employment and therefore you are not eligible for atermination distribution from the <strong>Plan</strong>. Contact <strong>AMSEC</strong> Human Resources for additionalinformation on how a transfer within the Parent Company affects your benefits under the <strong>Plan</strong>.2. Changes in the <strong>Plan</strong>. The Parent Company expects to continue the <strong>Plan</strong> indefinitely, but itreserves the right to amend, modify or change the <strong>Plan</strong>, or to permanently discontinuecontributions to the <strong>Plan</strong>, at any time and for any reason, in its sole discretion. Also, the ParentCompany or the Committee may alter the rules or procedures under which the <strong>Plan</strong> is operated,including, for example, investment alternatives and procedures, loan procedures and availability,timing and method of valuing accounts, timing of distributions, etc. In addition, the ParentCompany may have contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong> discontinued; however, just because contributions tothe <strong>Plan</strong> are discontinued in one year does not mean that contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong> will bepermanently discontinued. In addition, by having contributions discontinued, the Parent Companywill not have terminated the <strong>Plan</strong>. The Parent Company may not make any changes to the <strong>Plan</strong>that reduce benefits that already accrued to Participant Accounts.3. Termination of the <strong>Plan</strong>. The Parent Company expects to continue the <strong>Plan</strong> indefinitely, but itreserves the right to discontinue the <strong>Plan</strong>, in part or in whole, at any time, and for any reason, in itssole discretion. The <strong>Plan</strong> may also be discontinued by <strong>AMSEC</strong>’s merger into another corporation,whereby <strong>AMSEC</strong> ceases to exist and the successor corporation does not maintain the <strong>Plan</strong>. Thediscontinuance of the <strong>Plan</strong> means that <strong>AMSEC</strong> will make no more contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong> andthat you will be fully vested in all benefits accrued (and funded) on the date the <strong>Plan</strong> isdiscontinued. If the Parent Company discontinues a part of the <strong>Plan</strong> (e.g., a <strong>Plan</strong> amendmentexcluding a formerly eligible unit of employees which constitute 20% or more of the workforce),March 201119<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


you are fully vested in your Accounts if you are affected by the partial termination. In addition, atthe time the <strong>Plan</strong> is either wholly or partially terminated, the Parent Company shall decide whetherto distribute your Accounts. If your Accounts are not distributed when the <strong>Plan</strong> is discontinued,your Accounts will be held in trust until you are eligible to receive distributions under the <strong>Plan</strong>.4. Loss in Value of Accounts. The investment alternatives which you, the Parent Company or<strong>AMSEC</strong> select or to which Company Contributions (including your Salary Deferrals) are directedmay decline in market value, which will reduce the amount payable to you (because this amount isthe value of your vested Accounts at the time of distribution). Neither the Parent Company nor<strong>AMSEC</strong> guarantees the value of your Accounts, nor does the federal government.5. Additional Fees. Your Accounts may be charged with reasonable fees relating to theadministration of the <strong>Plan</strong> and payment of <strong>Plan</strong> benefits.You may obtain additional information from the <strong>AMSEC</strong> Director of Human Resources or designeeconcerning any of these matters.VI.

VII. PLAN TERMINATION INSURANCEA r e B enefits U nder T his <strong>Plan</strong> I nsur ed by the F eder al G over nment?<strong>Benefits</strong> under this <strong>Plan</strong> are not insured by the federal government. <strong>Benefits</strong> under certain types ofpension plans are insured by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), which is part of thefederal government. However, plans (such as this <strong>Plan</strong>) that maintain individual accounts for eachParticipant are not insured by the federal government.VIII. GENERAL ADMINISTRATION OF BENEFITST op H eavy R ulesCertain tax rules – called “top heavy” rules – apply if the value of benefits payable to certain keyemployees exceeds 60% of the total benefits under <strong>AMSEC</strong>’s retirement savings plan. If these rulesapply, the <strong>Plan</strong> must be modified to maintain its status as a tax-qualified plan. The <strong>Plan</strong> Administratorwill notify you if your benefits are affected by top heavy rules.Qualified Domestic R elations OrderIn connection with marital dissolution and child support matters, it is possible that an award of aportion of your Accounts will be made to your former spouse or the guardian of your children. If theaward is made pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, the <strong>Plan</strong> will be required to makepayments to the party to whom such award is made, and your benefits will be reduced accordingly. Acopy of the procedures governing qualified domestic relations orders can be obtained, without charge,by contacting the <strong>AMSEC</strong> Director of Human Resources.Effective July 1, 2004, the fees associated with the determination of the qualified status of a domesticrelations order (“QDRO”) are charged directly to the account of the affected Participant. Under theterms of a QDRO, however, the fees may be charged to the non-employee payee or divided equallybetween the Participant and the non-employee party to whom the award is made in connection withthe implementation of the order.For example, suppose a Participant’s account is valued at $12,000, the fee to determine that thedomestic relations order is qualified is $350, and the non-employee party agrees to absorb the full costof the QDRO review and determination. The account balance is otherwise split equally between theParticipant and the non-employee party. In that case, the Participant’s account is charged $350, theParticipant retains $6,000, and the non-employee party will have an account balance of $5,650 ($6,000- $350). However, if the Participant and the non-employee party agree to equally split the $350 fee,each of them will have an account balance of $5,825. Note that the actual fee may be different fromthe one in the example; to obtain information on the current fee structure as well as information aboutQDROs, contact QDRO Consultants Co. at 1-800-527-8481.March 201122<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


Unclaimed B enefitsA delay in applying for benefits may cause a delay in your payment. If you move and do not notify the<strong>Plan</strong> Administrator of your new address, your benefit payment may be delayed until the <strong>Plan</strong>Administrator locates you. Likewise, you should notify the <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator when your beneficiarymoves and his or her address changes.Under state law, if the <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator cannot locate you for a specified period of time, the <strong>Plan</strong>Administrator may forfeit your benefits to a state government. If this is the case, you must apply to thestate to receive your benefit.I ncapacity of Par ticipant or B eneficiar yIf you or, at your death, your beneficiary is deemed to be physically or mentally incompetent orotherwise incapable of receiving a payment for any reason, the <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator, at its discretion,may have the payment made to the person(s) or institution caring for you or a court appointedguardian.C har ges, Deductions, and L iens T her efor eIn general, the <strong>Plan</strong> pays all of its own applicable taxes and expenses. Taxes (and fees similar to taxes)might be levied at the federal, state, or local level or might be assessed by foreign governments (withrespect to foreign investments). Expenses include, but are not limited to, fees for services such asinvestment management (and other charges described in any prospectuses for funds), trusteeship,custodianship, brokerage, investment research, legal, accounting, auditing, consulting on <strong>Plan</strong>investments and administration, recordkeeping, government reporting, employee communications andassistance, bonding and other insurance, loans, personnel training, travel, mail, courier, telephone andother communications, and computer programming and processing. Such fees for services mayinclude, but are not limited to, amounts for products delivered or used in connection with the deliveryof services, such as office supplies and computer hardware and software. The fees are paid to theservice providers, which may include <strong>AMSEC</strong> and its affiliates.<strong>AMSEC</strong> may, from time to time, choose to pay some of these <strong>Plan</strong> expenses, but has no obligation todo so.At present, there are no liens on <strong>Plan</strong> funds. However, liens might attach to <strong>Plan</strong> funds in certaininstances, although the law in this area is not entirely clear.• A lien may arise for the unpaid federal taxes of a participant, or as a result of a judgment against aparticipant for unpaid federal taxes.• It may be possible for a lien to arise with respect to some of the contributions of a contributingemployer if made, for instance, when the Parent Company is insolvent or shortly before the ParentCompany’s bankruptcy.• It may be possible for a lien to arise with respect to some of the contributions of a participant ifmade, for instance, when the participant is insolvent or shortly before the participant’s bankruptcy.March 201123<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


• Finally, liens against <strong>Plan</strong> funds might arise with respect to debts of or judgments against the <strong>Plan</strong>itself or its underlying trust. Similarly, <strong>Plan</strong> funds can be affected by liens on collective trusts orinvestments with insurance companies under which <strong>Plan</strong> assets include not only the interest in thecollective trust or insurance contract but also the assets underlying that interest or contract.IX. STATEMENT OF RIGHTS UNDER THE EMPLOYEERETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974As a Participant in the <strong>AMSEC</strong> <strong>Employees</strong> <strong>401</strong>(k) <strong>Profit</strong> <strong>Sharing</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> you are entitled to certain rightsand protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). ERISAprovides that all <strong>Plan</strong> Participants shall be entitled to:R eceive I nfor mation About Y our <strong>Plan</strong> and B enefitsExamine, without charge, at the <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator’s office and at other specified locations, alldocuments governing the <strong>Plan</strong>, including insurance contracts and a copy of the latest annual report(Form 5500 Series) filed by the <strong>Plan</strong> with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the PublicDisclosure Room of the Employee <strong>Benefits</strong> Security Administration.Obtain, on written request to the <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation ofthe <strong>Plan</strong>, including insurance contracts and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) andupdated Summary <strong>Plan</strong> Description.

The <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator is required by law tofurnish each Participant with a copy of this summary annual report.Obtain, once a year, a statement of the total benefits accrued and the vested benefits (if any) or theearliest date on which benefits become vested. This statement must be requested in writing and is notrequired to be given more than once every 12 months. The <strong>Plan</strong> must provide the statement free ofcharge.Pr udent Actions by <strong>Plan</strong> F iduciar iesIn addition to creating rights for <strong>Plan</strong> Participants, ERISA imposes duties on the people who areresponsible for the operation of the <strong>Plan</strong>. The people who operate your <strong>Plan</strong>, called “fiduciaries” ofthe <strong>Plan</strong>, have a duty to do so prudently and exclusively in the interest of you and other <strong>Plan</strong>Participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer or any other person, may fire you orotherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a benefit or exercisingyour rights under ERISA.E nfor ce Y our R ightsIf your claim for a benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you have a right to know why thiswas done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal anydenial, all within certain time schedules.March 201124<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request acopy of <strong>Plan</strong> documents or the latest annual report from the <strong>Plan</strong> and do not receive them within 30days, you may file suit in federal court. In such a case, the court may require the <strong>Plan</strong> Administratorto provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive the materials, unless thematerials were not sent for reasons beyond the control of the <strong>Plan</strong> Administrator. If you have a claimfor benefits that is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in state or federal court. Inaddition, if you disagree with the <strong>Plan</strong>’s decision or lack thereof concerning the qualified status of adomestic relations order, you may file suit in federal court. If it should happen that <strong>Plan</strong> fiduciariesmisuse the <strong>Plan</strong>’s money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seekassistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in federal court. The court willdecide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the personyou sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and feesif, for example, it finds your claim is frivolous.Assistance with Y our QuestionsIf you have any questions about the <strong>Plan</strong>, you should contact Vanguard or the <strong>AMSEC</strong> Director ofHuman Resources.If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, or if you needassistance in obtaining documents from the <strong>AMSEC</strong> Director of Human Resources, you shouldcontact the nearest office of the Employee <strong>Benefits</strong> Security Administration, U.S. Department ofLabor, listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries,Employee <strong>Benefits</strong> Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution AvenueN.W., Washington, DC 20210.

W hat A r e the F eder al I ncome T ax C onsequences?As a general rule the amounts contributed to the <strong>Plan</strong> need not be currently reported as taxable incometo you when contributed to the <strong>Plan</strong>. Moreover, the earnings or increases in value of your Accounts, ifany, are not taxed to you currently.W hat Ar e the T ax C onsequences Pr ior to Distribution of B enefits?a. You are not subject to federal income tax on <strong>AMSEC</strong>’s contributions to the <strong>Plan</strong> at the time thecontributions are made.b. You are not subject to federal income tax on any income or appreciation with respect to yourAccounts under the <strong>Plan</strong> until distributions are made (or deemed to be made).c. You and <strong>AMSEC</strong> are not subject to federal employment taxes on <strong>AMSEC</strong>’s contributions to the<strong>Plan</strong>, except as set forth below with respect to certain employer contributions to this <strong>Plan</strong>.d. The <strong>Plan</strong> is not subject to federal income tax on the contributions by <strong>AMSEC</strong> and is not subject tofederal income tax on any income or realized gains, assuming that the <strong>Plan</strong> does not realize anyunrelated business taxable income.W hat Ar e the T ax C onsequences of Distr ibutions?Distributions from the <strong>Plan</strong> are subject to federal income tax under special, complex rules that applygenerally to distributions from tax-qualified retirement plans. In general, a single distribution from the<strong>Plan</strong> is taxable in the year of receipt at regular ordinary income rates (on the full amount of thedistribution), unless the distributee is eligible for and elects either:(1) To make a qualifying “rollover” of the amount distributed to an IRA or another qualified plan, or(2) To utilize 10-year averaging or partial capital gains taxation of the distribution.Although it is generally no longer tax-favored, a lump-sum distribution may be eligible for favorabletaxation under a special transition rule, described below. A “lump-sum distribution” for purposes ofeligibility for 10-year averaging or capital gains treatment is defined as a distribution of your entirevested interest under the <strong>Plan</strong> within one taxable year:(1) On account of your death or other separation from service, or(2) On account of your qualifying disability, or(3) After you reached age 59½.For purposes of this definition, distributions from the <strong>Plan</strong> or any other <strong>401</strong>(k) or profit-sharing planmust be aggregated. Under the special transition rule, an individual who reached age 50 on January 1,1986 may make a one-time election of 10-year averaging (at 1986 rates) and may elect to have the pre-1974 portion of the distribution taxed at 1986 capital gains rates. The special 10-year averagingtreatment, as well as partial capital gains treatment, of lump-sum distributions is applicable to a lumpsumdistribution from the <strong>Plan</strong> only if all other lump-sum distributions (whether or not from the sameMarch 201126<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


<strong>Plan</strong> or retirement plans of a similar type) received during the same taxable year by you are treated inthe same manner.An “early” distribution from the <strong>Plan</strong> results in an additional 10% tax on the taxable portion of thedistribution, except to the extent the distribution:(1) Is rolled over to an IRA or other qualified plan, or(2) Is used for deductible medical expenses, or(3) Is distributed on your death or disability, or(4) Is distributed after separation from service and part of a series of substantially equal periodicpayments over your life or the life of you and your beneficiary, or(5) Is distributed to a non-Participant under a qualified domestic relations order, or(6) Is distributed after separation from service, if the separation occurred during or after the calendaryear in which you reached age 55.Generally, distributions made to you before the date you reach age 59½ are considered “early”distributions and subject to additional tax unless one of the exceptions noted above applies. An“early” distribution may be an in-service distribution (i.e., before termination of employment) or adistribution made following termination of employment.If you (or your spouse in the event of your death) receive a distribution from the <strong>Plan</strong> (other thanhardship withdrawals and certain mandatory distributions after age 70½) and wish to defer theimmediate tax on receipt of such distribution, you may transfer (i.e., “roll over”) all or a portion of thedistribution, including the amount of your voluntary non-deductible contributions received in thedistribution, to either an IRA or another eligible retirement plan. To be effective, the “rollover” mustbe completed within 60 days of receipt of the distribution. Alternatively, you (or your spouse) mayrequest a direct rollover from the <strong>Plan</strong> to an IRA or to another eligible retirement plan.If you (or your spouse) do not arrange a direct rollover to an IRA or another eligible retirement plan,you are subject to mandatory federal income tax withholding at a rate of 20% of the taxabledistribution, even if you (or your spouse) later make a rollover within the 60-day period.If you (or your spouse) make a valid “rollover” to an IRA, payment of federal income tax is deferreduntil you (or your spouse) actually begin to receive distributions from the IRA. IRA earningsaccumulate on a tax-deferred basis until actually distributed; however, IRA funds generally may not bewithdrawn without penalty until you (or your spouse) reach age 59½, or, if earlier, you becomedisabled or die. The Internal Revenue Code requires that distributions from a regular (i.e., non-Roth)IRA begin no later than April 1 of the taxable year following the year in which you reach age 70½, atwhich time periodic distributions must begin.The <strong>Plan</strong> is intended to be a qualified “cash or deferred arrangement” under Section <strong>401</strong>(k) of theInternal Revenue Code. If you elect to defer a portion of your compensation and have the employercontribute it to the <strong>Plan</strong> as a <strong>401</strong>(k) deferral, the amounts contributed are not subject to federal incometax when the contribution is made. However, the contribution is subject to Social Security taxes andMarch 201127<strong>AMSEC</strong> SPD


certain federal unemployment taxes. Any <strong>401</strong>(k) deferrals made by you are limited to $16,500 for2011 plus the permitted catch-up contributions if you are at least age 50. This limit may be adjustedon a yearly basis as permitted by law. This annual limit applies on an employee-by-employee basis toall <strong>401</strong>(k) plans (including plans of other employers) in which you participate.Generally, <strong>AMSEC</strong> will be able to deduct the amounts that it contributes to the <strong>Plan</strong> pursuant yourelection to defer a portion of your compensation, as well as any matching, profit-sharing, or additionalemployer contributions made to the <strong>Plan</strong>. The deduction is equal to the amount of contributions made.Any interest paid by you on <strong>Plan</strong> loans is not deductible, regardless of the purpose of the loan or use ofthe loan proceeds.A tax notice is provided to you before your distribution explaining the tax rules in more detail.The foregoing discussion is intended only as a summary of certain federal income taxconsequences and does not purport to be a complete discussion of all of the tax consequences ofparticipation in the <strong>Plan</strong>. <strong>AMSEC</strong> is not making any representation as to the tax consequencesto you of participation in the <strong>Plan</strong>. Accordingly, you should consult your own tax advisors withrespect to all federal, state, and local tax effects of participation in the <strong>Plan</strong>. Moreover, <strong>AMSEC</strong>does not represent that the foregoing tax consequences will apply to your specific circumstancesor will continue to apply in the future and makes no promise to maintain the tax-qualified statusof the <strong>Plan</strong>.Consult your tax advisor for specific advice because rules change frequently and your own personalsituation may also.H ow I s the P lan A dminister ed?A committee designated by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company (referred to in thisSummary <strong>Plan</strong> Description as the “Committee” or the “<strong>Plan</strong> Administrator”) is the designated <strong>Plan</strong>Administrator.
