following the occurrence of any of the following events during the Severance

(A)    Failure to elect or reelect to the office, or otherwise maintain the

(C)    A reduction in the Participant’s Base Pay or the opportunity to earn
Incentive Pay from the Company, its Subsidiaries or the failure to pay the
Participant Base Pay or Incentive Pay earned when due;

(D)    The termination or denial of the Participant’s rights to Employee
Benefits or a material reduction in the aggregate scope or value of Employee
Benefits (unless, in the case of Welfare Benefits or Pension Benefits the
termination, denial or reduction applies to all similarly situated employees of
the Company and its Subsidiaries), any of which is not remedied by the Company
within 10 calendar days after the Company receives written notice from the
Participant of the change, reduction or termination;

of work to any location that is in excess of 300 miles from the location

quarter when annualized for purposes of comparison to any prior year) than the
average number of travel days per calendar year that was required of the
Participant in the three full calendar years immediately prior to the Change in
Control;

(iv)    Cause. The Participant’s employment will be considered terminated for
Cause if prior to termination of the Participant’s employment, the Board
reasonably determines, based on a preponderance of the evidence reasonably
available to the Board as of the date the Board adopts the resolution described
below, that the Participant committed or engaged in:

(A)    an intentional act of fraud, embezzlement or theft at a level that
constitutes a felony in connection with the Participant’s duties or in the
course of the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary, whether
or not the Participant is convicted or pleads guilty or nolo contender (no
contest) to any related criminal charges;

(B)    Intentional wrongful damage to property of the Company or a Subsidiary;

(C)    Intentional wrongful disclosure of secret processes or confidential
information of the Company or a Subsidiary;

(D)    Intentional wrongful engagement in any Competitive Activity;

(E)     Willful and continued failure by the Participant to substantially
perform the Participant’s duties with the Company that is not cured within 30
days after the Board delivers to the Participant a written demand for
substantial performance specifically identifying the Participant’s failure to
perform; or

(F)    Other intentional activity, including but not limited to a breach of the
Participant’s fiduciary duties with respect to the Company, a Subsidiary, or any
welfare plan or pension plan sponsored by the Company or a Subsidiary;

which, in the reasonable judgment of the Board and based on a preponderance of
the evidence available to the Board is significantly detrimental to the
reputation, goodwill or business of the Company or significantly disrupts the
workplace environment or operation of the Company’s business or administrative
activities.

For purposes of this Article XII, no act or failure to act on the part of a
Participant will be deemed “intentional” if it was due primarily to an error in
the Participant’s judgment or the Participant’s negligence. An act will be
deemed “intentional” only if done or omitted to be done by the Participant not
in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant’s action or
omission was in the best interest of the Company.

For purposes of this Article XII, the Participant has not been terminated for
Cause unless and until:

(G)    A meeting of the Board is called and held for the purpose of determining
if the Participant is to be terminated for Cause; and

(H)    The Participant is given reasonable notice of the meeting and an
opportunity to be heard before the Board, with Participant’s counsel if the
Participant so chooses; and

(I)    At that meeting the Board finds, in the good faith opinion of the Board,
that the Participant has committed an act entitling the Board to terminate the
Participant’s employment for Cause; and

(J)    The Participant has been provided a copy of the resolution duly adopted
at that meeting by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the
Board then in office and specifying in detail the particulars of the Board’s
finding.

The Participant and the Participant’s beneficiaries retain the right to contest
the validity or propriety of the Board’s determination that the Participant’s
employment was terminated for Cause.

(v)    Competitive Activity. Competitive Activity is a Participant’s direct
employment, without the written consent of the Board (or any Committee of the
Board to which the Board delegates its authority in writing), in any business or
enterprise (including the Participant’s own business or enterprise) if:

(A)    The business or enterprise engages in substantial and direct competition
with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any state in which the Company or
Subsidiary was engaged in business or actively negotiating to enter business as
of the Participant’s Change in Control Termination; and

(B)    The business’s or enterprise’s sales of any product or service
competitive with any product or service of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries amounted to 10% of the business’s or enterprise’s net sales for its
most recently completed fiscal year; and

(C)    the Company’s or Subsidiary’s net sales of the competitive product or
service amounted to 10% of the Company’s or Subsidiary’s net sales for its most
recently completed fiscal year; and

(D)    The Board determines the Participant’s employment in the business or
enterprise is detrimental to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

“Competitive Activity” does not include the mere ownership of not more than 10%
of the total combined voting power or aggregate value of all classes of stock or
other securities in the enterprise and the Participant’s exercise of rights
resulting from ownership of the stock.

The Board (or its delegate) has sole discretion and authority to determine if a
Participant is engaging in Competitive Activity for purposes of this Article
XII. It is the Participant’s responsibility to provide information sufficient
for the Board (or its delegate) to make these determinations.

(vi)    Incentive Pay. Incentive Pay is the aggregate annual payments of cash or
equity compensation (determined without regard to any deferral election) and
annual vesting of equity compensation, in addition to Base Pay, under any bonus,
incentive, profit-sharing, performance, discretionary pay or similar agreement,
policy, plan, program or arrangement (whether or not funded) of the Company or a
Subsidiary, or any successor, providing economic value on an aggregate basis at
least as favorable to the Participant, in terms of the amount of benefits,
levels of coverage and performance measures and levels of required performance,
as the benefits payable prior to the Change in Control.

(vii)    Base Pay. Base Pay is the Participant’s annual base salary (prior to
any pre-tax deferrals made under any employee benefit plans of the Company) in
effect immediately prior to the Change in Control or immediately prior to the
Participant’s Change in Control Termination, if higher.

2.    Article 12.02 is amended to read as follows:

12.02    Conversion of Outstanding Awards

(a)    Continuation of Plan
If the Change in Control is described in Section 2.06(a) or (b) and the
Surviving Entity or Acquiring Entity is a corporation with common stock publicly
traded on an established U.S. stock exchange, the Board may enter into an
agreement with the Surviving Entity or Acquiring Entity for the Surviving Entity
or Acquiring Entity to adopt and maintain the Plan and to adopt and maintain all
outstanding Award Agreements under the existing terms of the Agreement.
Equitable adjustments will be made to all outstanding Award Agreements to
reflect the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of the day before the
Control Change Date and to substitute Common Stock subject to Agreements with
comparable common stock of the Surviving Entity or Acquiring Entity.

(b)    Substitution of Plan
If the Change in Control is described in Section 2.06(a) or (b) and the
Surviving Entity or Acquiring Entity is a corporation with common stock publicly
traded on an established U.S. stock exchange, the Board may enter into an
agreement with the Surviving Entity or Acquiring Entity for the Surviving Entity
or Acquiring Entity to adopt a comparable equity compensation plan and grant new
Awards under that plan in substitution for outstanding Awards under this Plan.
The fair market value of the common stock of the Surviving Entity or Acquiring
Entity subject to the substituted Awards will not be less than the Fair Market
Value of the Common Stock subject to outstanding Awards under this Plan as of
the day before the Control Change Date.
