            “Year” shall mean the Company’s fiscal year.

Section 3. Eligibility and Participation

            Participants in the Plan shall be those Officers selected by the

participate in the Plan, or, having once been selected, to be selected again.
The selection of an Officer as a Participant shall neither entitle such Officer
to nor disqualify such Officer from participation in any other Company benefit
or incentive plan or award.

Section 4. Plan Administration

            4.1 Generally. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee,
which will consist of two or more persons (1) who (after the Company is subject
to the provisions of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
“Exchange Act”) ) satisfy the requirement of a “nonemployee director” for
purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, and (2) who (after the Company is
subject to the

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

deduction limit under Code Section 162(m) ) satisfy the requirements of an
“outside director” for purposes of Code Section 162(m). The Committee’s
determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it
selectively among persons who receive or are eligible to receive Retention
Awards under the Plan, whether or not any Retention Awards are the same or such
persons are similarly situated. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Committee will be entitled, among other things, to make
non-uniform and selective determinations and to establish non-uniform and
selective Performance Criterion, Performance Criteria, Performance Goals, the
weightings thereof, and Target Awards. Whenever the Plan refers to a
determination being made by the Committee, it shall be deemed to mean a
determination by the Committee in its sole discretion. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Committee may establish a Target Award for any
Participant based on any one Performance Criterion or any two or more
Performance Criteria.

            4.2. Compliance with Section 162(m)(4) of the Code. It is the intent
of the Company that this Plan and Code Section 162(m) Awards hereunder satisfy,
and be interpreted in a manner that satisfy, in the case of Participants who are
or may be Covered Employees, the applicable requirements of Code Section 162(m),
including the administration requirement of Code Section 162(m)(4)(C), so that
the Company’s tax deduction for remuneration in respect of Code Section 162(m)
Awards for services performed by such Covered Employees is not disallowed in
whole or in part by the operation of such Code section. If any provision of this
Plan would otherwise frustrate or conflict with the intent expressed in this
Section, that provision, to the extent possible, shall be interpreted and deemed
amended so as to avoid such conflict. To the extent of any remaining
irreconcilable conflict with such intent, such provision shall be deemed void as
applicable to Covered Employees with respect to whom such conflict exists.
Nothing herein shall be interpreted so as to preclude a Participant who is or
may be a Covered Employee from receiving a Retention Award that is not a Code
Section 162(m) Award.

            4.3. Committee Discretion. The Committee shall have the discretion,
subject to the limitations described herein, including in Section 6 below
relating to Code 162(m) Awards, to, among other actions, (1) determine the Plan
Participants; (2) determine who will be treated as a Covered Employee and
designate whether an Award will be a Code Section 162(m) Award; (3) determine
the measurement period; (4) determine Performance Criterion, Performance
Criteria, Performance Goals and Target Awards for each Year or other measurement
period; (5) determine how Performance Criterion or Performance Criteria will be
calculated and/or adjusted; (6) establish a Retention Award Schedule; (7)
establish performance thresholds for the payment of any Retention Awards; (8)
determine whether and to what extent the Performance Goals have been met or
exceeded; (9) pay discretionary Retention Awards, including awards from an
exceptional performance fund, as may be appropriate in order to assure the
proper motivation and retention of personnel and attainment of business goals;
(10) make adjustments to Performance Goals and thresholds; (11) make adjustments
to any Payment Date or Dates earlier set for any Retention Awards and (12)
determine the total amount of

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

funds available for payment of Retention Awards with respect to each Year or
other measurement period.

            4.4 Plan Interpretations, etc. Subject to the provisions of the
Plan, the Committee shall be authorized to interpret the Plan, make, amend and
rescind such rules as it deems necessary for the proper administration of the
Plan, make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan and correct any defect or supply any omission or
reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the extent the
Committee deems desirable to carry the Plan into effect. Any action taken or
determination made by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding on all
parties. In the event of any conflict between an Award Schedule and the Plan,
the terms of the Plan shall govern.

            4.5 Expenses of Administration. The Company shall pay all expenses
of administration of this Plan, including, but not limited to, accounting and
legal fees and expenses, and any other expenses related to the administration of
this Plan.

Section 5. Retention Awards.

            5.1 Generally. The Committee may establish a Performance Criterion
and/or two or more Performance Criteria and Performance Goals for each Year or
other measurement period. If the Committee establishes two or more Performance
Criteria, the Committee may in its discretion determine the weight to be given
to each Performance Criteria in determining Awards. The Committee shall
establish a Retention Award Schedule for each Participant for each Year, which
Award Schedule shall set forth the Target Award for such Participant payable at
specified levels of performance, based on the Performance Goal for each
Performance Criterion and the weighting, if any, established for such criterion.
The Committee may vary the Performance Criteria, Performance Goals and
weightings, if any, from Participant to Participant, Award to Award, Year to
Year and measurement period to measurement period. The Committee shall also
determine the  Payment Date or Dates for each Retention Award.

            5.2 Establishment of Accounts. The Company shall establish a
bookkeeping reserve account (“Account”) for each Participant granted a Retention
Award under the Plan. If, at the end of each Year, it is determined that a
Participant has earned a Retention Award under this Plan, the Company will
credit to such Participant’s Account the full amount of the earned Retention
Award. No interest shall accrue or be payable to a Participant in respect of his
or her Account. No amount shall be credited to a Participant’s Account for any
Year in which no Retention Award is earned. Participants who are in the active
employ of the Company on a Payment Date will be entitled to receive a Retention
Award equal to that portion of the  Retention Account payable on the Payment
Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

            5.3 Vesting, Payment Date or Dates and Forfeiture. A Participant
shall not become vested in any Retention Award (or any portion thereof) for any
Year (or other measuring period) until the Payment Date or Dates determined by
the Committee for such Retention Award (or portion thereof) shall have occurred,
and then the Participant shall only be vested in the amount of the Retention
Award that is payable on the Payment Date that has occurred. A Participant whose
employment with the Company and its subsidiary terminates for any reason prior
to the Payment  Date or Dates for the earned Retention Awards reflected in the
Participant’s Account shall forfeit all such unpaid Retention Awards and shall
not have any right to receive any payment on the Payment Date or Dates
applicable to such Retention Award; provided, however, notwithstanding the
foregoing, if there has been both (a) a Change in Control and (b) a termination
of the Participant’s employment by the Company without Cause or by the
Participant for Good Reason subsequent to the Change in Control, in that case
all unpaid Retention Awards reflected in the Participant’s Account shall be paid
to the Participant within ten (10) business days after the date of the
Participant’s termination of employment in one lump sum payment, unless if at
the time of the Participant’s termination of employment the Participant is a
“specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the deferral of
the payment of the Retention Awards otherwise payable pursuant to this
Section 5.3 is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax
under Section 409A of the Code, then the payment to which the Participant would
otherwise be entitled within ten (10) business days following his or her
termination of employment shall be deferred and accumulated (without any
reduction in such payment ultimately paid to the Participant and without any
interest accrued or payable thereon) for a period of six months from the date of
termination from employment and paid in a lump sum on the first day of the
seventh month following such termination of employment. Also, notwithstanding
the foregoing, despite any such forfeiture due to termination of a Participant’s
employment pursuant to the foregoing provisions of the Plan, the Committee may,
in its sole discretion, pay any or all of the forfeited Retention Award or
Awards reflected in the Account to the Participant.

            5.4 Payment Date or Dates for Retention Awards. Subject to the terms
and conditions of the Plan, each Retention Award (or portion thereof) shall be
paid in cash on the Payment Date or Payment Dates determined by the Committee in
its sole discretion for each such Retention Award. Generally, it is intent of
the Plan that Retention Awards for any Year (or other measurement Period) shall
not be payable in full during the 90 subsequent to the end of the Year (or other
measurement period) for which the Performance Goal is achieved, but over a
longer period (in a lump sum or in installments) so that continuity and
retention of the Participant in the employ of the Company or its subsidiary will
be enhanced by the Plan. A typical Retention Award under the Plan would provide
Payment Dates as follows: one-third payable in cash within 90 days subsequent to
each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the end of the Year (or
other measurement period) for the Performance Goal which is achieved.

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

            5.5 Limitation on Payments. (a) Anything in this Plan to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the receipt of any payment, award,
benefit or distribution (or any acceleration of any payment, award, benefit or
distribution) to be paid to or for the benefit of a Participant (whether
pursuant to the terms of this Plan or otherwise) (the “Payments”) would, but for
this Section 5.5, cause the Participant to incur an excise tax (“Excise Tax”)
under Section 4999 of the Code, then the Payments shall be reduced, as further
described below, to the extent necessary so that no Excise Tax is imposed.

            (b) The determination of whether any Payment will cause the
Participant to incur an Excise Tax, as well as any other calculations necessary
to implement this Section 5.4, shall be made by the Company’s outside auditors
or by a nationally recognized accounting or benefits consulting firm appointed
by the Company and shall be binding on the Participant. The auditor’s or
consultant’s fee shall be paid by the Company.

Section 6. Code Section 162(m) Awards

            A Participant who is or may be a Covered Employee may receive a Code
Section 162(m) Award and/or a Retention Award that is not a Code Section 162(m)
Award. Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in the Plan to the contrary, as and to
the extent required by Code Section 162(m), the grant of a Code Section 162(m)
Award to a Participant must state, in terms of an objective formula or standard,
the method of computing the amount of compensation payable to each Covered
Employee and must preclude discretion to increase the amount of compensation
payable that would otherwise be due upon attainment of such goals.  All
determinations made by Committee related to a Code Section 162(m) Award will be
made in a timely manner, as required by Code Section 162(m), including, without
limitation, the requirements that the Performance Goals, Performance Criteria
and Retention Award Schedules be established not later than 90 days after the
commencement of any fiscal year of the Company. A Retention Award Schedule for a
Covered Employee shall set forth for each Code Section 162(m) Award, the terms
and conditions applicable to such Award, as determined by the Committee, not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, and shall specify that such Award is a
Code Section 162(m) Award. Before any Code Section 162(m) Award is paid, the
Committee shall certify that the Performance Goals and any other material terms
of such Award have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Performance Criteria with respect to Code Section 162(m) Awards shall be limited
to the Performance Criteria set forth in clause (1) of the definition of
“Performance Criterion/Performance Criteria”. To the extent that the Company’s
tax deduction for remuneration in respect of the payment of a Code Section
162(m) Award to a Covered Employee would be disallowed under Code Section 162(m)
by reason of the fact that such Covered Employee’s applicable employee
remuneration, as defined in Code Section 162(m)(4), either exceeds or, if such
Award were paid,

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

would exceed the $1,000,000 limitation in Code Section 162(m)(1), the Committee
may, in its sole discretion, defer the payment of such Award; provided that the
Committee may at any time accelerate the payment of previously deferred Awards.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Plan, such Deferred
Awards may be deemed credited with interest at a rate determined by the
Committee from time to time at the discretion of the Committee.

Section 7. Amount Available for Retention Awards

            The Committee shall determine the amount available for payment of
Retention Awards in any Year or any other measurement period. Notwithstanding
anything else in this Plan to the contrary, the aggregate maximum amount that
may be paid to a Participant during any Year with respect to all Retention
Awards under the Plan shall be $5,000,000.

Section 8. Determination of Awards

            8.1 Selection of Participants. The Committee shall select the
Participants and determine which Participants, if any, are to be treated as
Covered Employees and which Retention Awards, if any, are to be Code Section
162(m) Awards. Except in the case of Code Section 162(m) Awards, the Committee
shall determine the actual Retention Award to each Participant for each Year or
other measurement period, taking into consideration, as it deems appropriate,
the performance of the Company and/or a Business Unit, as the case may be, for
the Year or other measurement period in relation to the Performance Goals
theretofore established by the Committee, and the performance of the respective
Participants during the Year or other measurement period. The fact that an
Officer is selected as a Participant for any Year or other measurement period
shall not mean that such Officer necessarily will receive an Award for that Year
or other measurement period. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan to
the contrary, the Committee may make discretionary Awards as it sees fit under
the Plan, except in the case of Code Section 162(m) Awards, which may be
adjusted only downward.

            8.2 Selection of Code Section 162(m) Awards. Code Section 162(m)
Awards shall be determined according to a Covered Employee’s Retention Award
Schedule based on the level of performance achieved and such Covered Employee’s
Target Award. All such determinations regarding the achievement of Performance
Goals and the determination of actual Code Section 162(m) Awards will be made by
the Committee; provided, however, that the Committee may decrease, but not
increase, the amount of the Code Section 162(m) Award that otherwise would be
payable

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 9. Miscellaneous

            9.1 Right to Payment Unsecured. The right of a Participant to
receive payments under the Plan shall be only that of an unsecured claim against
the assets of the Company and distributions under the Plan shall be made solely
from the assets of the Company. Nothing herein and no action taken pursuant to
the Plan shall be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a
fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant, the
Participant’s beneficiary or estate, or any other person. No Participant shall
have any right to any specific assets of the Company or any of its affiliates by
virtue of the Plan.

            9.2 Term and Amendment of this Plan. This Plan shall become
effective on the date of adoption by the Board and shall continue in full force
and effect until all Retention Awards that were awarded under the Plan have been
paid. The Committee may, at any time, amend, suspend or discontinue the Plan, in
whole or in part. The Committee may at any time alter or amend any or all
Retention Award Schedules under the Plan to the extent permitted by law. No such
action may be effective with respect to any Code Section 162(m) Award to any
Covered Employee without approval of the Company’s shareholders if such approval
is required by Code Section 162(m)(4)(C). Also, the Committee may amend the Plan
or any Retention Award granted hereunder at any time if, in the discretion of
the Committee, such amendments become necessary or advisable as a result of
changes in law or regulation or to avoid the imposition of a penalty tax under
section 409A of the Code. Additionally, the Committee may at any time determine

            9.3 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power to withhold
from any amount payable hereunder an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state

was awarded under this Plan.

            9.4 Requirements of Law. The award of Retention Awards shall be
subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by
any governmental agencies or national or foreign securities exchanges as may be
appropriate or required, as determined by the Committee. The Company shall use
all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such approvals.

            9.5 Inalienability of Interests. A Participant’s interests under

that the Plan and each Retention Award granted hereunder shall, to the extent
applicable, comply with Section 409A of the Code and any regulations promulgated
thereunder and that the Plan shall be interpreted, operated and administered
accordingly. In the event any of the compensation or benefits provided to a
Participant pursuant to this Plan would result in a violation of Section 409A of
the Code (including any regulations promulgated thereunder), the Company will
use its reasonable efforts to amend the Plan in the least restrictive manner
necessary in order, where applicable (i) to ensure that such compensation is not
considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of
the Code, or (ii) to comply with the provisions of Section 409A, in each case,
where possible, without any diminution in the value of the compensation or
benefits to be paid or provided to the Participant pursuant to this Plan;
provided, that nothing in herein shall require the Company to provide any
gross-up or other tax reimbursement to the Participant in connection with any
violation of Section 409A or otherwise.

the date of the first meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be
elected that occurs either (x) after the close of the third calendar year
following the calendar year in which the Company’s initial public offering
occurs or (y) in case the Company becomes publicly held without an initial
public offering, during the first calendar year following the calendar year in
which the Company becomes publicly held and (B) no later than the first
shareholders meeting that occurs in the fifth year following the year in which
the shareholders previously approved the Plan (or the material terms of the
