sentence, if the grant or vesting of Restricted Shares granted to a Covered
Employee is designed to comply with the requirements of the Performance-Based
Exception, the Committee may apply any restrictions it deems appropriate to the
payment of distributions declared with respect to such Restricted Shares, such
that the distributions and/or the Restricted Shares maintain eligibility for the
Performance-Based Exception.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any Award that

accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A or any guidance
promulgated thereunder.

unvested Restricted Shares following termination of the Participant's employment
with the Company.  Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of
the Committee, shall be included in the Award Agreement entered into with each
Participant, need not be uniform among all Shares of Restricted Stock issued
pursuant to the Plan and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for
termination of employment; provided, however, that except in the cases of
terminations by reason of death or Disability, the vesting of Shares of
Restricted Stock which qualify for the Performance-Based Exception and which are
held by Covered Employees shall occur at the time they otherwise would have

Participant's Award Agreement, a Participant's rights under the Plan shall be
exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by the Participant or the
Participant's legal representative.

ARTICLE 10.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Unless and until the Committee proposes for stockholder vote and the Company’s
stockholders approve a change in the general performance measures set forth in
this Article 10, the attainment of which may determine the degree of payout
and/or vesting with respect to Awards to Covered Employees which are designed to
qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, the performance measure(s) to be
used for purposes of such grants shall be chosen from among funds from
operations (FFO), net income either before or after taxes, market share,
profits, share price, earnings per share, FFO per share, total stockholder
return, return on assets, return on equity, operating income, return on capital
or investment, or economic value added (including, but not limited to, any or
all of such measures in comparison to the Company's competitors, the industry or
some other comparable group).

The Committee shall have the discretion to adjust the determinations of the
degree of attainment of the preestablished performance goals; provided, however,
that Awards which are designed to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception,
and which are held by Covered Employees, may not be adjusted upward (the
Committee shall retain the discretion to adjust such Awards downward).

In the event that applicable tax and/or securities laws change to permit
Committee discretion to alter the governing performance measures without
obtaining stockholder approval of such changes, the Committee shall have sole
discretion to make such changes without obtaining stockholder approval.  In
addition, in the event that the Committee determines that it is advisable to
grant Awards which shall not qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, the
Committee may make such grants without satisfying the requirements of Code
Section 162(m).

ARTICLE 11.

BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or
beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any
benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of his or her death before he or
she receives any or all of such benefit.  Each such designation shall revoke all
prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the
Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in

13

writing with the Company during the Participant's lifetime.  In the absence of
any such designation, the Participant's beneficiary shall be paid to the
Participant's estate.

ARTICLE 12.

DEFERRALS

The Committee may permit or require a Participant to defer such Participant's
receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be
due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise of an Option or SAR, the lapse
or waiver of restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock, or the satisfaction
of any requirements or goals with respect to Performance Units/Shares.  If any
such deferral election is required or permitted, the Committee shall, in its
sole discretion, establish rules and procedures for such payment deferrals,
provided, however, all deferrals shall be made in accordance with all applicable
requirements of Code Section 409A or any guidance promulgated thereunder.

ARTICLE 13.

RIGHTS OF EMPLOYEES

13.1

EMPLOYMENT.  Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the
right of the Company to terminate any Participant's employment at any time, nor
confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company.

13.2

PARTICIPATION.  No Employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an
Award under this Plan or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive a
future Award.

ARTICLE 14.

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, TERMINATION AND ADJUSTMENTS

14.1

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION.  Subject to the terms of the Plan, the
Board, upon recommendation of the Committee, may at any time and from time to
time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part.

14.2

ADJUSTMENT OF AWARDS UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF CERTAIN UNUSUAL OR NONRECURRING
EVENTS.  The Committee may make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and
the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring
events (including, without limitation, the events described in Section 4.3
hereof) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company or of
changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, whenever the
Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent
dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be
made available under the Plan; provided that unless the Committee determines
otherwise, no such adjustment shall be authorized to the extent that such
authority would be inconsistent with the Plan or Awards meeting the requirements
of Code Section 162(m), as from time to time amended.

14.3

AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to
the contrary (but subject to Section 14.2 hereof), no termination, amendment or
modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award
previously granted under the Plan without the written consent of the Participant
holding such Award.

14

14.4

COMPLIANCE WITH CODE SECTION 162(m). At all times when Code Section 162(m) is
applicable, all Awards granted under this Plan shall comply with the
requirements of Code Section 162(m); provided, however, that in the event the
Committee determines that such compliance is not desired with respect to any
Award or Awards available for grant under the Plan, then compliance with Code
Section 162(m) will not be required.  In addition, in the event that changes are
made to Code Section 162(m) to permit greater flexibility with respect to any
Award or Awards available under the Plan, the Committee may, subject to this
Article 14, make any adjustments it deems appropriate.

ARTICLE 15.

PAYMENT OF PLAN AWARDS AND CONDITIONS THEREON

15.1

EFFECT OF COMPETITIVE ACTIVITY. Anything contained in the Plan to the contrary
notwithstanding, if the employment of any Participant shall terminate, for any
reason other than death, while any Award to such Participant is outstanding
hereunder, and such Participant has not yet received the Shares covered by such
Award or otherwise received the full benefit of such Award, such Participant, if
otherwise entitled thereto, shall receive such Shares or benefit only if, during
the entire period from the date of such Participant's termination to the date of
such receipt, such Participant shall have earned out such Award by:  (i) making
himself or herself available, upon request, at reasonable times and upon a
reasonable basis, to consult with, supply information to, and otherwise
cooperate with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof with respect
to any matter that shall have been handled by him or her or under his or her
supervision while he or she was in the employ of the Company or of any
Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof; and (ii) refraining from engaging in any
activity that is directly or indirectly in competition with any activity of the
Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof.

15.2

NONFULFILLMENT OF COMPETITIVE ACTIVITY CONDITIONS; WAIVERS UNDER THE PLAN.  In
the event of a Participant's nonfulfillment of any condition set forth in
Section 15.1 hereof, such Participant's rights under any Award shall be
forfeited and canceled forthwith; provided, however, that the nonfulfillment of
such condition may at any time (whether before, at the time of, or subsequent to
termination of employment) be waived by the Committee upon its determination
that in its sole judgment there shall not have been and will not be any
substantial adverse effect upon the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate
thereof by reason of the nonfulfillment of such condition.

15.3

EFFECT OF INIMICAL CONDUCT.  Anything contained in the Plan to the contrary
notwithstanding, all rights of a Participant under any Award shall cease on and
as of the date on which it has been determined by the Committee that such
Participant at any time (whether before or subsequent to termination of such
Participant's employment) acted in manner inimical to the best interests of the
Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof.

ARTICLE 16.

CHANGE IN CONTROL

16.1

DEFINITION.  For purposes of this Plan, a "Change in Control" of the Company is
deemed to have occurred as of the first day that any one or more of the
following conditions shall have been satisfied:

15

(a)

Change in Ownership:  A change in ownership of the Company occurs on the date
that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires
ownership of stock of the Company that, together with stock held by such person
or group, constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market
value or total voting power of the stock of the Company, excluding the
acquisition of additional stock by a person or more than one person acting as a
group who is considered  to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair
market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company.

(b)

Change in Effective Control:  A change in effective control of the Company
occurs only on either of the following dates:

(1)

The date any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or
has acquired during the twelve (12) month period ending in the date of the most
recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock of the Company
possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company; or

(2)

The date a majority of the members of the Board is replaced during any (12)
month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a
majority of the members of the board of directors before the date of the
appointment or election; provided that this paragraph (b) shall apply only to
the company for which no other corporation is a majority shareholder.

(c)

Change in Ownership of Substantial Assets:  A change in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the Company's assets occurs on the date that anyone
person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired
during the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the most recent
acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the company that have a total
gross fair market value equal to or more than forty percent (40%) of the total
gross fair market value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets
being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with
such assets.

It is the intent that this definition be construed consistent with the
definition of "Change of Control" as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section
409A and the applicable Treasury Regulations, as amended from time to time.

16.2

TREATMENT OF OUTSTANDING AWARDS.  Subject to Section 16.3 herein, upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control:

16

(a)

any and all Options and SARs granted hereunder shall become immediately
exercisable and shall remain exercisable throughout their entire term;

(b)

any restriction periods and restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock which are
not performance-based shall lapse;

(c)

the target payout opportunities attainable under all outstanding Awards of
performance-based Restricted Stock, Performance Units and Performance Shares
shall be deemed to have been fully earned for the entire Performance Period(s)
as of the effective date of the Change in Control.  The vesting of all Awards
denominated in Shares shall be accelerated as of the effective date of the
Change in Control, and there shall be paid out to Participants within 30 days
following the effective date of the Change in Control a pro rata number of
Shares (or their cash equivalents) based upon an assumed achievement of all
relevant targeted performance goals and upon the length of time within the
Performance Period which has elapsed prior to the Change in Control.  Awards
denominated in cash shall be paid pro rata to participants in cash within 30
days following the effective date of the Change in Control, with the proration
determined as a function of the length of time within the Performance Period
which has elapsed prior to the Change in Control, and based on an assumed
achievement of all relevant targeted performance goals.

16.3

TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND MODIFICATIONS OF CHANGE-IN-CONTROL PROVISIONS.
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement
provision, the provisions of this Article 16 may not be terminated, amended or
modified on or after the date of an event which is likely to give rise to a
Change in Control to affect adversely any Award theretofore granted under the
Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant with respect to said
Participant's outstanding Awards.

ARTICLE 17.

TAX PROVISIONS

17.1

TAX WITHHOLDING.  The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or
withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient
to satisfy federal, state and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law
or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a
result of this Plan.

17.2

SHARE WITHHOLDING.  With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of
Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock, or upon any
other taxable event arising as a result of Awards granted hereunder,
Participants may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, to satisfy the
withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold
Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal
to the minimum statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction.
 All such elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, and signed by the

17

Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the
Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

17.3

REQUIREMENT OF NOTIFICATION OF CODE SECTION 83(b) ELECTION.  If any Participants
shall make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (to include in gross
income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in Code Section 83(b)) or
under a similar provisions of the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United
States, such Participant shall notify the Company of such election within ten
(10) days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service or
other government authority, in addition to any filing and notification required
pursuant to regulations issued under Code Section 83(b) or other applicable
provision.

17.4

REQUIREMENT OF NOTIFICATION UPON DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION UNDER CODE SECTION

disqualifying dispositions), such Participant shall notify the Company of such
disposition within ten (10) days thereof.

ARTICLE 18.

INDEMNIFICATION

Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the
Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from
any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably
incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action,
suit or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may
be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and
against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof,
with the Company's approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any
judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against him or her, provided he
or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and
defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or
her own behalf.  The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive
of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled
under the Company's Articles  of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law or
otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them
harmless.

ARTICLE 19.

SUCCESSORS

All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to Awards granted
hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the

or assets of the Company.
