Section 3.3 is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

3.3. Grant of Awards by Chief Executive Officer. Unless otherwise determined by
the Committee, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company shall have the power and authority to grant
Awards to any Eligible Persons, so long as such Eligible Persons are not
officers or directors with reporting obligations under Section 16 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and to determine the terms and

taken pursuant to Section 4.2, shall apply to Awards granted pursuant to this
Section 3.3 or Section 3.2(j), unless otherwise specified by the Committee.
