CAMPBELL SOUP COMPANY


Supplemental Retirement Plan

As Amended and Restated Effective as of October 1, 2024




CAMPBELL SOUP COMPANY
SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN

As Amended and Restated Effective as of October 1, 2024

The Campbell Soup Company Supplemental Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) is designed for Eligible Executives of Campbell Soup Company to provide an additional method of planning for retirement and other significant saving needs with respect to amounts deferred or vested after 2004. The Plan is intended to (1) comply with section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and official guidance issued thereunder, and (2) with respect to Eligible Executives who are employed by the Company, be an “unfunded” plan maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation to a select group of management or highly compensated employees for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, this Plan shall be interpreted, operated, and administered in a manner consistent with these intentions.

The Plan was originally effective as of January 1, 2009 (and known as the Campbell Soup Company Deferred Compensation Plan II) and was established based on the terms and conditions of the Campbell Soup Company Deferred Compensation Plan effective November 18, 1999 (the “Prior Plan”). The terms and conditions of the Prior Plan, to the extent such terms and conditions were applied in reasonably good faith compliance with Code section 409A, governed the determination, deferral and distribution of benefits payable to Participants (and their Beneficiaries) under the Prior Plan during the transition period under Code section 409A. Any amounts (including earnings) that were earned or vested after 2004 under the Prior Plan and that remained unpaid on January 1, 2009 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. Amounts that were earned and vested under the Prior Plan as of December 31, 2004, including earnings thereon, shall be considered Grandfathered Amounts, and thereby, exempt from the requirements under Code section 409A. These Grandfathered Amounts shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of the Prior Plan in effect on October 3, 2004.

amounts deferred under this Plan. Once the Code section 401(a)(17) limit has been attained, this credit shall be made to the Eligible Executive's Account Balance each pay period, but in no event later than January 31 of the following Plan Year.

(c) Executive Retirement Contributions. On behalf of each Eligible Executive who meets the eligibility requirements for Executive Retirement Contributions under Section 2.1, each Plan Year the Company shall credit to such Eligible Executive's Account Balance an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of such Eligible Executive’s total Salary and Annual Incentive Compensation paid during the Plan Year, without regard to any amounts deferred under this Plan, or such higher percentage as designated in writing by the Committee.

irrevocable Deferral Form with the Plan Administrator before the beginning of such Plan Year or fiscal year, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Committee or the Plan Administrator determines that the Annual Incentive Compensation or LTIP Award qualifies as “performance-based compensation” under Code section 409A, an Eligible Executive may elect to defer such Compensation by filing a Deferral Form at such later time up until the date six months before the end of the performance period as permitted by the Committee or the Plan Administrator.
An Eligible Executive’s election to defer Compensation shall be cancelled, in accordance with the regulations under Code section 409A, if the Eligible Executive obtains a hardship distribution from a Code section 401(k) plan pursuant to Reg. §1.401(k)-1(d)(3) or any successor thereto.

Any such election must have become irrevocable on or before December 31, 2008 and must have been made in accordance with procedures and distribution rules established by the Plan Administrator.

§5.5 Subsequent Deferral Election. In accordance with the administrative rules and procedures established by the Plan Administrator, a Participant may make up to three subsequent



elections to change the time or form of payment (from among those available under Section 5.6) for all or the portion of his or her vested Account Balance (each, a “Subsequent Deferral Election”) attributable to Elective Contributions or Non-Elective Contributions (and earnings thereon) in accordance with this Section 5.5, but only if the following conditions are satisfied:

Claimants will be notified in writing of approved claims, which will be processed as claimed. A claim is considered approved only if its approval is communicated in writing to a claimant.




§7.2 Denial of Claim. In the case of the denial of a claim respecting benefits paid or payable with respect to a Participant, a written notice will be furnished to the claimant within 90 days of the date on which the claim is received by the Plan Administrator. If special circumstances require a longer period, the claimant will be notified in writing, prior to the expiration of the 90-day period, of the reasons for an extension of time; provided, however, that no extensions will be permitted beyond 90 days after the expiration of the initial 90-day period.

§7.3 Reasons for Denial. A denial or partial denial of a claim will be dated and will clearly set forth:

(a)the specific reason or reasons for the denial;

(b)specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based;

(c) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and

(d) an explanation of the procedure for review of the denied or partially denied claim set forth below, including the claimant's right to bring a civil action under ERISA section 502(a) following an adverse benefit determination on review.

§7.4 Review of Denial. Upon denial of a claim, in whole or in part, a claimant or his duly authorized representative will have the right to submit a written request to the Plan Administrator for a full and fair review of the denied claim by filing a written notice of appeal with the Plan Administrator within 60 days of the receipt by the claimant of written notice of the denial of the claim. A claimant or the claimant's authorized representative will have, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits and may submit issues and comments in writing. The review will take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

If the claimant fails to file a request for review within 60 days of the denial notification, the claim will be deemed abandoned and the claimant precluded from reasserting it. If the claimant does file a request for review, his request must include a description of the issues and evidence he deems relevant. Failure to raise issues or present evidence on review will preclude those issues or evidence from being presented in any subsequent proceeding or judicial review of the claim.

§7.5 Decision Upon Review. The Plan Administrator will provide a prompt written decision on review. If the claim is denied on review, the decision shall set forth:

(a)the specific reason or reasons for the adverse determination;




(b)specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the adverse determination is based;

(c)a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant's claim for benefits; and

(d) a statement describing any voluntary appeal procedures offered by the Plan and the claimant's right to obtain the information about such procedures, as well as a statement of the claimant's right to bring an action under ERISA section 502(a).

A decision will be rendered no more than 60 days after the Plan Administrator’s receipt of the request for review, except that such period may be extended for an additional 60 days if the Plan Administrator determines that special circumstances require such extension. If an extension of time is required, written notice of the extension will be furnished to the claimant before the end of the initial 60-day period.

§7.6 Finality of Determinations; Exhaustion of Remedies. To the extent permitted by law, decisions reached under the claims procedures set forth in this Section shall be final and binding on all parties. No legal action for benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless and until the claimant has exhausted his remedies under this Section. In any such legal action, the claimant may only present evidence and theories which the claimant presented during the claims procedure. Any claims which the claimant does not in good faith pursue through the review stage of the procedure shall be treated as having been irrevocably waived. Judicial review of a claimant’s denied claim shall be limited to a determination of whether the denial was an abuse of discretion based on the evidence and theories the claimant presented during the claims procedure.

§7.7 Limitations Period. Any suit or legal action initiated by a claimant under the Plan must be brought by the claimant no later than one year following a final decision on the claim for benefits by the Plan Administrator. The one-year limitation on suits for benefits will apply in any forum where a claimant initiates such suit or legal action.



ARTICLE VIII

FUNDING

§8.1 Funding. The Company shall not segregate or hold separately from its general assets any amounts credited to the Account Balances for Participants, and shall be under no obligation whatsoever to fund in advance any amounts under the Plan, including Contributions and earnings thereon.




§8.2 Insolvency. In the event that the Company becomes insolvent, all Participants and Beneficiaries shall be treated as general, unsecured creditors of the Company with respect to any amounts credited to the Account Balances.



ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time by action of the corporate officer in charge of Human Resources of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment or termination shall reduce any Participant’s Account Balance as of the date of such amendment or termination; provided however, an amendment may freeze or limit future accruals of benefits under the Plan on and after the date of such amendment. Upon a complete termination of the Plan, all vested amounts credited to Participants’ Account Balances shall be distributed to Participants and Beneficiaries in the manner and at the time described in Article V, unless the Company determines in its sole discretion that all vested amounts credited to Participants' Account Balances shall be distributed upon termination in accordance with the requirements under Code section 409A. Upon termination of the Plan, no further deferrals shall be permitted; however, earnings, gains and losses shall continue to be credited to Account Balances in accordance with Article III until the Account Balances are fully distributed.


ARTICLE X

CHANGE IN CONTROL

§10.1 Provisions. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Article X shall govern and supersede any inconsistent terms or provisions of the Plan.

§10.2 Definition of Change in Control. For purposes of the Plan “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following events:

(a)    The acquisition in one or more transactions by any “Person” (as the term person is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)) of “Beneficial Ownership” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (the “Voting Securities”), provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 10.2(a), the Voting Securities acquired directly from the Company by any Person shall be excluded from the determination of such Person’s Beneficial Ownership of Voting Securities (but such Voting Securities shall be included in the calculation of the total number of Voting Securities then outstanding); or




(b)    The individuals who, as of November 30, 2022, are members of the Board (the “Incumbent Board”), cease for any reason to constitute more than fifty percent of the Board; provided, however, that if the election, or nomination for election by the Company’s holders of shares of Campbell Stock (hereinafter, the “Shareholders”), of any new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent Board, such new director shall, for purposes of the Plan, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board; or

(c)    The consummation of a merger or consolidation involving the Company if the Shareholders of the Company, immediately before such merger or consolidation, do not own, directly or indirectly immediately following such merger or consolidation, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the outstanding Voting Securities of the corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Voting Securities immediately before such merger or consolidation; or

(d)    Approval by Shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the consummation of a sale or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of more than fifty percent (50%) of the assets of the Company.

(e)    The consummation of a share exchange transaction whereby the Shareholders of the Company, immediately before such transaction, do not own, directly or indirectly immediately following such transaction, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the outstanding Voting Securities of the corporation resulting from such transaction in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Voting Securities outstanding immediately before such transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the then outstanding Voting Securities is acquired by (i) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or more employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any corporation which, immediately prior to such acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the Shareholders of the Company in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the Company immediately prior to such acquisition, (iii) any “Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholder” (as hereinafter defined) or (iv) any Person who has acquired such Voting Securities directly from any Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholder but only if such Person has executed an agreement which is approved by two-thirds of the Board and pursuant to which such Person has agreed that he (or they) will not increase his (or their) Beneficial Ownership (directly or indirectly) to 30% or more of the outstanding Voting Securities (the “Standstill Agreement”) and only for the period during which the Standstill Agreement is effective and fully honored by such Person. For purposes of this Section 10.2, “Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholder” shall mean at any time a “Dorrance Family Shareholder” (as hereinafter defined) who or which is at the time in question the Beneficial Owner solely of (v) Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by such



individual on January 25, 1990, (w) Voting Securities acquired directly from the Company, (x) Voting Securities acquired directly from another Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholder, (y) Voting Securities which are also Beneficially Owned by other Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholders at the time in question, and (z) Voting Securities acquired after January 25, 1990 other than directly from the Company or from another Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholder by any “Dorrance Grandchild” (as hereinafter defined) provided that the aggregate amount of Voting Securities so acquired by each such Dorrance Grandchild shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the Voting Securities outstanding at the time of such acquisition. A “Dorrance Family Shareholder” who or which is at the time in question the Beneficial Owner of Voting Securities which are not specified in clauses (v), (w), (x), (y) and (z) of the immediately preceding sentence shall not be a Grandfathered Dorrance Family Shareholder at the time in question. For purposes of this Section 10.2, “Dorrance Family Shareholders” shall mean individuals who are descendants of the late Dr. John T. Dorrance, Sr. and/or the spouses, fiduciaries and foundations of such descendants. A “Dorrance Grandchild” means as to each particular grandchild of the late Dr. John T. Dorrance, Sr., all of the following taken collectively: such grandchild, such grandchild’s descendants and/or the spouses, fiduciaries and foundations of such grandchild and such grandchild’s descendants.

Moreover, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any Person (the “Subject Person”) acquired Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the outstanding Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the Company which, by reducing the number of Voting Securities outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the Company, and after such share acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Voting Securities which increases the percentage of the then outstanding Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account Balance that is subject to Section 409A of the Code and any payments or settlement of Account Balance that will accelerate upon a Change in Control, no event set forth in this Plan or other agreement applicable to a Participant or in clauses (a)-(e) of this Section 10.2 shall constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the Plan unless such event also constitutes a “change in ownership”, “change in effective control” or “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the company’s assets” as defined under Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, if a Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause within one year prior to a Change in Control and such termination (i) was at the request of a third party who effectuates a Change in Control or (ii) otherwise occurred in connection with or in anticipation of, a Change in Control, then for purposes of this Article X only, the date of a Change in Control shall mean the date immediately prior to the date of such Participant’s termination of employment.




For purposes of this Article X only, with respect to any Participant, (i) “Cause” shall be defined as set forth in any individual agreement applicable to a Participant, or (ii) in the case of a Participant who does not have an individual agreement that defines Cause, then Cause shall mean the termination of a Participant’s employment by reason of his or her (A) conviction of a felony or (B) engaging in conduct which constitutes willful gross misconduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Campbell Group, monetarily or otherwise. No act, nor failure to act, on the Participant’s part, shall be considered “willful” unless he or she has acted, or failed to act, with an absence of good faith and without a reasonable belief that his or her action or failure to act was in the best interest of the Campbell Group.

§10.3 Definition of “Termination Following a Change in Control.” For purposes of the Plan, “Termination Following a Change in Control” means a termination of employment:

(a)initiated by the employer of the Participant,

(b)initiated by the Participant for “Good Reason” as defined as set forth in any individual agreement applicable to the Participant; or

(c) in the case of a Participant who does not have an individual agreement that defines “Good Reason,” initiated by the Participant following one or more of the following events:

(i)a reduction in the Participant’s base salary or any failure to pay the Participant any compensation or benefits to which he or she is entitled within thirty (30) days of the date due;

(ii)the Campbell Group’s requiring the Participant to be based at any place outside a 50-mile radius from his or her site of employment prior to the Change in Control, except for reasonably required travel on the Campbell Group’s business which is not greater than such travel requirements prior to the Change in Control;

(iii)the failure by the Campbell Group to provide the Participant with compensation and benefits, in the aggregate, substantially equivalent (in terms of benefit levels and/or reward opportunities) to those provided for under compensation or employee benefit plans, programs and practices as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control (or as in effect following the Change in Control, if greater);

(iv)any purported termination of the Participant’s employment for Cause which does not comply with the requirements of the definition of “Cause” as set forth in Section 10.2; or

(v)the failure of the Company to obtain an agreement from any successor or assign of the Company to assume and agree to perform the Plan.




§10.4 Accrued Benefit.

(a) Upon a Change in Control, a Participant's Campbell Stock Account shall be converted into cash in an amount equal to the greater of (1) the highest price per share of the Campbell Stock (a “Share”) paid to holders of the Shares in any transaction (or series of transactions) constituting or resulting in a Change in Control or (2) the highest fair market value per Share during the ninety (90) day period ending on the date of a Change in Control multiplied by the number of shares of Campbell Stock deemed credited to the Participant's Account Balance under the Plan.

(b) Upon a Participant’s Termination Following a Change in Control (other than Directors) within two (2) years after a Change in Control, the Participant shall fully vest in his or her Account Balance (including the SERP Benefit and the Mid-Career Plan Benefit). In the event the Change in Control in connection with such Termination Following a Change in Control satisfies the requirements of a “Change in Control Event,” as described in Code section 409A and the applicable regulations thereunder, the Company shall pay to the Participant, subject to the delay in payment required for Key Employees pursuant to Section 5.3, a lump sum cash payment equal to the Participant’s vested Account Balance sixty (60) days after his or her Separation from Service regardless of the Participant's previous distribution election(s). In the event such Change in Control does not result in a Change in Control Event as described under Code section 409A, payments described in this Section 10.4(b) shall be credited and vested to the Participant's Account Balance and made pursuant to the provisions under Article V of the Plan.

(c) Upon a Director’s Separation from Service (i.e., ceasing to provide services to the Company as a member of the Board or otherwise) within two (2) years after a Change in Control, the Director shall fully vest in his or her Account Balance. In the event the Change in Control in connection with such Separation from Service satisfies the requirements of a “Change in Control Event,” as described in Code section 409A and the applicable regulations thereunder, the Company shall pay to the Director, subject to the delay in payment required for Key Employees pursuant to Section 5.3, a lump sum cash payment equal to his or her vested Account Balance sixty (60) days after his or her Separation from Service regardless of the Director's previous distribution election. In the event such Change in Control does not result in a Change in Control Event as described under Code section 409A, payments described in this Section 10.4(c) shall be credited and vested to the Participant's Account Balance and made pursuant to the provisions under Article V of the Plan.

§10.5 Amendment or Termination.

(a) This Article X shall not be amended or terminated at any time if any such amendment or termination would adversely affect the rights of any Participants under the Plan.

(b) For a period of two (2) years following a Change in Control, the Plan shall not be terminated or amended in any way that would adversely affect the rights of the Participants, nor shall the manner in which the Plan is administered be changed in a way that adversely affects



the Eligible Executives’ right to existing or future Company provided benefits or contributions provided hereunder. Furthermore, the Plan may not be merged or consolidated with any other program during said two-year period.

(c) Any amendment or termination of the Plan prior to a Change in Control and which (1) was at the request of a third party who has indicated an intention or taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control or (2) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control, shall be null and void and shall have no effect whatsoever.



ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

§11.1 No Employment Contract. The establishment or existence of the Plan shall not confer upon any individual the right to be continued as an employee or Director. The Employer expressly reserves the right to discharge any employee whenever in its judgment its best interests so require.

§11.2 Non-Alienation. No interest of any person in, or right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily for the satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such person.

§11.3 Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey to the extent not preempted by federal law.

§11.4 Taxes and Withholding. The Company or other payor may withhold from a benefit payment under the Plan or a Participant's wages in order to meet any federal, state, or local tax withholding obligations with respect to Plan benefits. The Company may also accelerate and pay a portion of a Participant's benefits in a lump sum equal to the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (“FICA”) tax imposed and the income tax withholding related to such FICA amounts. The Company or other payor shall report Plan payments and other Plan-related information to the appropriate governmental agencies as required under applicable laws.

§11.5 Incapacity. If the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems a Participant or Beneficiary who is eligible to receive any payment hereunder to be incompetent to receive the same by reason of illness or any infirmity or incapacity of any kind, the Plan Administrator may direct the Company to apply such payment directly for the benefit of such person, or to make payment to any person selected by the Plan Administrator to disburse the same for the benefit of the Participant or Beneficiary. Payments made pursuant to this Section shall operate as a



discharge, to the extent thereof, of all liabilities of the Company, the Plan Administrator and the Plan to the person for whose benefit the payments are made.

§11.6 Unclaimed Benefits. Each Participant shall keep the Plan Administrator informed of his or her current address and the current address of his or her designated Beneficiary. The Plan Administrator shall not be obligated to search for the whereabouts of any person if the location of a person is not made known to the Plan Administrator.

§11.7 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held invalid or illegal for any reason, any illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted.

§11.8 Words and Headings. Words in the masculine gender shall include the feminine and the singular shall include the plural, and vice versa, unless qualified by the context. Any headings used herein are included for ease of reference only, and are not to be construed so as to alter the terms hereof.

§11.9 Binding Upon Successors. The liabilities under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor, assign or purchaser of the Company or any purchaser of substantially all of the assets of the Company.

§11.10 Trust Arrangement. All benefits under the Plan represent an unsecured promise to pay by the Company. The Plan shall be unfunded and the benefits hereunder shall be paid only from the general assets of the Company resulting in the Eligible Executives having no greater rights than the Company's other general creditors. Nothing herein shall prevent or prohibit the Company from establishing a trust or other arrangement for the purpose of providing for the payment of the benefits payable under the Plan.
