Recitals:
1.

earned after December 31, 2004, including amendments adopted through August 29,

Section 7.01 of the Plan permits the Company to amend the Plan, by written
instrument, at any time and from time to time.

of employment, is less than the limit under Sec. 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code as in
effect for the Plan Year in which his retirement or termination of employment
occurs, then the portion of such Deferral Account elected in accordance with the
provisions of Sections 4.02(b)(1) or 4.03(c)(1) as applicable shall be void and
