Plan Sponsor is responsible for reviewing and monitoring reports <br />made available by Empower (whether provided electronically, by posting on an Empower website, or <br />otherwise) regarding Plan activity, transactions and investments to verify that the transactions indicated in <br />the reports properly reflect the Direction provided by the Plan Sponsor. Empower’s performance of its <br />obligations under this Agreement shall be presumed to be accurate unless Plan Sponsor provides Empower <br />with proper notice of discrepancies. <br />4.10 Error Correction. <br />4.10.1 Transactional Errors.

If the issue is not timely brought to Empower’s attention, Empower may correct the error <br />by adjusting the Plan or Participant account prospectively.

Unless the Plan Sponsor objects to such proposed corr ection and requests an alternate <br />correction option within five (5) business days after receiving notice of Empower’s suggested corrective <br />option, the Plan Sponsor Directs Empower to promptly process the correction in accordance with the <br />proposal, at Empower’s expense. If Empower’s proposed correction is consistent with Internal Revenue <br />Service, Department of Labor, other agency correction guidelines, or other guidance, but the Plan Sponsor <br />requests an alternate correction method resulting in expenses in excess of what Empower would have <br />incurred under its proposed correction, the Plan Sponsor shall bear such additional expenses (including
