Director) is terminated before the Plan Share Award has been completely earned
for any reason (except as specifically provided in subsection (b) below), the
Recipient shall forfeit the right to any Shares subject to the Award which have

Non-Employee Director (including for purposes hereof service as an Advisory
Director) terminates due to death or Disability shall be deemed earned as of the
Recipient’s last day of employment with or service to the Corporation or any
Subsidiary Company (provided, however, no such accelerated vesting shall occur

(including for purposes hereof service as an Advisory Director) of at least one
member of the Employer Group) and shall be distributed as soon as practicable
thereafter.  Furthermore, notwithstanding the general rule contained in Section
7.01(a), all Plan Shares subject to a Plan Share Award held by a Recipient shall
be deemed earned as of the effective date of a Change in Control.
 
7.02           Distribution of Dividends.  Any cash dividends, stock dividends
or returns of capital declared in respect of each unvested Plan Share Award will
be held by the Trust for the benefit of the Recipient on whose behalf such Plan

including any interest thereon, will be paid out proportionately by the Trust to
the Recipient thereof as soon as practicable after the Plan Share Award becomes

distribution, the Board or the Committee may require the Recipient or his or her
Beneficiary, as the case may be, to agree not to sell or otherwise dispose of
his distributed Plan Shares except in accordance with all then applicable
federal and state securities laws, and the Board or the Committee may cause a
legend to be placed on the stock certificate(s) representing the distributed
Plan Shares in order to restrict the transfer of the distributed Plan Shares for
such period of time or under such circumstances as the Board or the Committee,
upon the advice of counsel, may deem appropriate.

set forth the Performance Goals applicable to the Performance Share Award, the

achievement of the Performance Goals but may reduce or eliminate the payments as
provided for in the Performance Award Agreement.

be deemed in any way to limit or restrict the Committee from making any Award or
payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or understanding,
whether now existing or hereafter in effect.

Performance Share Award payable in Common Stock shall have no rights as a
shareholder until the Common Stock is issued pursuant to the terms of the
Performance Award Agreement.
