2 Q: Why is Ben E. Keith making these retirement plan changes? These changes will allow us to continue offering competitive benefits to help you build a secure financial future by giving you more control over your retirement benefits. The company will also have a more predictable and sustainable way to contribute to your retirement savings. We regularly review the competitiveness of our total compensation package against our peers and strive to provide progressive and competitive benefits while carefully managing our business. This approach has helped us maintain our success for 112 years and the new retirement program will help position us well into the future. The changes we are making more closely align our plans with the marketplace. And, our overall benefits package remains very competitive. We are committed to helping you and your family live well today and prepare for a secure tomorrow. Q: How does our new retirement program compare with other companies? We believe our retirement programs will allow us to continue to attract and retain great people. Of the nine food and beverage companies we benchmark our benefits against, all offer a 401(k) plan. Our $1 for $1 company match up to 4% of pay, along with our Profit Sharing Plan, aligns with the top companies in our industry. We are confident that our new retirement program will continue to be among the best in our industry. Q: Do the retirement program changes apply to senior management? Yes. These changes apply to all current and future employees. Q: How does this change affect new employees? Regardless of your age, if you began employment with Ben E. Keith on or after July 1, 2017: You will be eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan starting July 1, Employees must complete 60 days of company service prior to becoming eligible on the first day of the following month. New employees hired on or after July 1, 2017 will not participate in the Ben E. Keith Pension Plan since the Plan requires one year of service to become eligible. Q: Is the primary purpose of the retirement changes to save money for the Company? No. The primary purpose in making these changes is to make our retirement plan costs more predictable from year to year and more manageable over the long term, while still providing employees with competitive benefits. The amount of money required to fund the Pension Plan varies significantly from year to year, with multi-million-dollar swings that are mostly due to factors out of our control. This unpredictability makes forecasting difficult and impacts our ability to run the business effectively. Q: What factors did Ben E. Keith consider when designing this new retirement program? We know how important these benefits are to all of our employees, and we took this process seriously. We extensively researched numerous plan designs and potential vendors to identify the right fit for the current and future needs of both our employees and our company. Here are a few of the driving factors we considered: The new program must be a competitive benefit in our industry and be significantly more predictable and affordable to the company. The new program should enable employees to achieve their financial goals necessary for retirement. 2

3 Planning and saving for retirement is a shared responsibility. The new program will include both employee and employer contributions while providing a competitive retirement benefits to current and future employees. 3

4 401(k) Plan: Employees Under Age 55 & Employees with less than one year of company service as of June 30, 2018 Q: What is a 401(k) plan? A 401(k) plan is a retirement plan that allows participants to contribute a percentage of their paycheck, either pre-tax (traditional) or after-tax (Roth), to an individual account to be used upon retirement. A 401(k) plan is the most common type of retirement plan companies offer today. A 401(k) plan gives you more control over your retirement savings and opportunity for growth. You will manage the investment of both your own contributions and the company matching contributions made to your account among a variety of investment funds. Here is what you can expect from our new 401(k) Plan: You can contribute money from your paycheck by contributing a percentage of your pay through automatic payroll deductions A tax-advantaged opportunity to build a valuable retirement income The ability to see your balance in real-time Control over your retirement savings including how much you contribute, how you invest your money and the matching contributions from Ben E.

Keith Company, and what does it include? Our new 401(k) Plan will include: Employee contributions. You will be able to make tax-advantaged contributions to your 401(k) Plan account either as a Pre-Tax contribution or a Roth contribution: o Pre-tax contributions: Contributions are deducted and put into your 401(k) Plan account before any required taxes are withheld from your paycheck. This means that you will be subject to taxation at the time of a qualified distribution from your account. o Roth contributions: Contributions are deducted and put into your 401(k) Plan account after any required taxes are withheld from your paycheck. This means that you will not be subject to taxation at the time of a qualified distribution from your account. Company matching contributions. When you contribute to the new 401(k) Plan, Ben E. Keith Company will match your contributions $1 for $1 up to 4% of your pay. Investment choices. Your new 401(k) Plan can be managed based on your personal investment strategy. If you want to be less hands-on with your account, then a Target Date Fund may be the best choice for you.

Keith Retirement Savings Plan administrator, has service representatives to assist you with investment guidance if you want to discuss these options in more detail. o Vanguard Institutional Target Date Funds (Default Option): Target Date Funds are created by investment professionals based on a target retirement year.

The investment allocation will automatically change over time and will become increasingly more conservative as your target retirement date approaches. An important reminder is that all contributions (yours and the company match) will default into your age appropriate Target Date Fund on July 1, However, you can opt to 4

Actively Managed Funds typically have a higher cost to the account holder than Passively Managed Funds. Rollovers: You can transfer your qualified retirement plan account from another company into the new 401(k) Plan. Also, if you retire or terminate from Ben E. Keith Company, you can transfer your 401(k) Plan account to an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) or to a new employer s qualified retirement plan (if it allows rollovers). Loans and Hardship Withdrawals: You can borrow against your account, or may be able to take a hardship withdrawal, while you are employed. You can have one outstanding loan at a time.

These investment funds seek to mirror the performance of a specified investment index, such as the S&P 500. These funds, also called index funds, typically have lower fees than Actively Managed Funds. Q: What are Actively Managed Funds? These investment funds often have an investment manager or team who actively manage a fund s investments.

Q: What is the difference between Pre-Tax saving and Roth saving for my 401(k) Plan account? You will have the option of investing your 401(k) contributions into (1) a Pre-Tax Account or (2) a Roth Account. A Pre-Tax account means that your contributions are made on a pre-tax basis and you pay taxes on the contributions and earnings when you take a distribution from your account. A Roth account means that your contributions are made with after-tax dollars, therefore your account will not be subject to taxation at the time of a qualified distribution. Empower Retirement will provide access to a helpful online tool that allows you to compare either pretax (traditional) or after-tax (Roth) contributions, including the effect on your take home pay and retirement funds. Using this tool, you will be able to see the potential growth and tax implications using each account. 7
