(a)General Rule. As soon as practicable after the Purchase Date of each Offering
Period, the Company will purchase the number of whole shares (and any fractional
share) of Stock that may be purchased with the amounts credited to each
Participating Employee's Account as of such Purchase Date. Prior to an Offering
Period the Committee may, at its discretion, determine that cash in an amount
representing the price of any fractional share instead shall be refunded or
carried over to the next Offering Period provided that such determination shall
apply uniformly to all Participating Employees for that Offering Period. No
Participating Employee (or any person who makes a claim through a Participating
Employee) will have any interest in any shares of Stock until such shares have
been purchased on behalf of the Participating Employee and recorded in the books
and records of the Company.

(b)Delivery of Stock. Promptly following the purchase of shares of Stock by the
Company, the shares will be transferred to the Plan Brokerage Firm and deposited
in a Brokerage Account established on behalf of the Participating Employee.

(c)Dividends. Any dividends paid with respect to shares credited to a
Participating Employee's Brokerage Account will be paid in cash except where the
Participating Employee voluntarily elects to reinvest such dividends in
additional shares in accordance with such rules or procedures as may be
established by the Plan Brokerage Firm. Dividends reinvested in additional
shares will be purchased by the Plan Brokerage Firm in the open market (or by
some other means as determined by the Plan Brokerage Firm).”

3.Section 14 of the Plan is revised to read as prescribed below.

“SECTION 14. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION. This Plan may be amended by the Board

The Board also may terminate this Plan or any offering made under this Plan at
any time. Any amendment or termination is subject to the following limitations,
however:

the Company if the amendment will (1) increase the number of shares available
for purchase under the Plan or (2) materially modify the eligibility conditions
or increase the benefits available to Eligible Employees under the Plan.

(b)No amendment will reduce the amount of a Participating Employee's Account
balance.

(c)No amendment will be made which will cause the Plan to not satisfy the
requirements under Section 423 of the Code.”
