(iv)The Participant does not accept and does not intend to accept employment
with a competitor of any business unit of the Corporation or any of its
Subsidiaries and will so certify if required by the Committee or a delegate
thereof; provided that the Committee or a delegate thereof may, in its sole

quarterly cash dividend is paid.

4.    Issuance of Shares. During the period of time between the Grant Date and

action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Corporation to satisfy all
obligations for withholding.

encumber any portion of the Restricted Units, and any attempt to sell, transfer,
assign, pledge, or encumber any portion of the Restricted Units shall have no
effect.

Participant any rights to (or impose any obligations for) continued Employment
by the Corporation or any Subsidiary or successor, nor shall it give such
