this 27th day of October, 2004.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Controlling Company maintains the Plan (as most recently amended
and restated as of January 1, 2001) to provide nonqualified unfunded deferred

compensated employees; and

WHEREAS, the Controlling Company desires to amend the Plan to change the default
investment under the Plan for participants who fail to make an election or whose
election is inadequate; and

WHEREAS, the Controlling Company desires to amend the Plan to clarify the
identification of the Investment Committee as the committee responsible for
establishing and reviewing the array of Investment Funds available under the
Plan; and

WHEREAS, Section 9.1 of the Plan permits the Company to amend the Plan at any
time;

NOW, THEREFORE, effective as of January 1, 2004, the Plan hereby is amended as
follows:

1.

A new Section 1.25A shall be added to the Plan between Sections 1.25 and 1.26,

Subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.2 of the Plan shall be amended to read as
follows:

“5.2 Investment Funds. To the extent a trust fund is established, all

necessity of amendment to the Plan or the Trust and shall have the investment
objectives prescribed by the Investment Committee and to which the Trustee
consents. Such other Investment Funds also may be established and maintained for
any limited purpose(s) the Investment Committee may direct.”

Each Participant or Beneficiary generally may direct the manner in which his
Accounts shall be invested in and among the Investment Funds; provided, however,
that the Investment Committee shall have sole discretion as to investment of a
Participant’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts and may refuse to follow a Participant’s
or Beneficiary’s investment directions.”
 
4.
 
The last sentence of subsection (a) of Section 5.3 of the Plan shall be amended
to read as follows:
 
“In the event a Participant fails to make an investment election or a
Participant’s election form is incomplete or insufficient in some manner, the
Participant’s future Before Tax Contributions will be invested in the Stable
Value Trust Fund or any successor stable fund.”
 
5.
 
Subsection (a) of Section 5.4 of the Plan shall be amended to read as follows:
 
“5.4 Acquisition of Company Stock.

discretion, may purchase Company Stock in the open market and/or in privately
negotiated transactions with holders of Company Stock and/or the Controlling

prices which, in the judgment of the Trustee, do not exceed the fair market
value of such Company Stock as of the date of the purchase.”

and file or publish with the Secretary of Labor, the Secretary of the Treasury,
their delegates and all other appropriate government officials all reports and
