(d) Subject to Article 14, in the event of a Participant's Separation from
Service due to Retirement, all SARs in which the Participant has a vested right
upon Separation from Service shall be exercisable for the lesser of (i) three
years following the date of the Separation from Service or (ii) the expiration
date of the SAR.
7.8 NONTRANSFERABILITY OF SARs. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant's
Award Agreement, no SAR granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred,
pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, except as otherwise provided
in a Participant's Award Agreement, all SARs granted to a Participant under the
Plan shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant.

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

ARTICLE 8
RESTRICTED STOCK
8.1 GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan,
the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted
Stock to Participants in such amounts as the Committee shall determine.
8.2 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT. Each Restricted Stock grant shall be evidenced
by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Period(s) of Restriction, the
number of Shares of Restricted Stock granted, and such other provisions as the
Committee shall determine.
8.3 TRANSFERABILITY. Except as provided in this Article 8, the Shares of
Restricted Stock granted herein may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned,
or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, voluntarily or involuntarily, until the
end of the applicable Period of Restriction established by the Committee and
specified in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement, or upon earlier satisfaction
of any other conditions, as specified by the Committee in its sole discretion
and set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement. All rights with respect to the
Restricted Stock granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be available
during his or her lifetime only to such Participant.
8.4 OTHER RESTRICTIONS. Subject to Article 10 herein, the Committee may impose
such other conditions and/or restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock
granted pursuant to the Plan as it may deem advisable including, without
limitation, a requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase price for
each Share of Restricted Stock, restrictions based upon the achievement of
specific performance goals (Company-wide, Subsidiary-wide, divisional, and/or
individual), time-based restrictions on vesting which may or may not be
following the attainment of the performance goals, and/or restrictions under
applicable federal or state securities laws. The Company shall retain the
certificates representing Shares of Restricted Stock in the Company's possession
until such time as all conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares
have been satisfied. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 8, Shares of
Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock grant made under the Plan
shall become freely transferable by the Participant after the last day of the
applicable Period of Restriction.
8.5 VOTING RIGHTS. Unless otherwise designated by the Committee at the time of
grant, Participants to whom Shares of Restricted Stock have been granted
hereunder may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares during
the Period of Restriction.
8.6 DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. Unless otherwise designated by the
Committee at the time of grant, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock
granted hereunder shall be credited with regular cash dividends paid with
respect to the underlying Shares while they are so held during the Period of
Restriction. The Committee may apply any restrictions to the dividends that the
Committee deems appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the preceding
sentence, if the grant or vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock granted to a
Named Executive Officer 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 dividends declared with respect to such Shares of
Restricted Stock, such that the dividends and/or the Shares of Restricted Stock
maintain eligibility for the Performance-Based Exception. In the event that any
dividend constitutes a derivative security or an equity security pursuant to the
rules under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, such dividend shall be subject to a
vesting period equal to the remaining vesting period of the Shares of Restricted
Stock with respect to which the dividend is paid.
8.7 SEPARATION FROM SERVICE. Each Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall set
forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to receive
unvested Shares of Restricted Stock following Separation from Service. 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 Separation from Service,
including, but not limited to, Separation from Service for Cause or Good Reason,
or reasons relating to the breach or threatened breach of restrictive covenants;
provided, however, that, except in the cases of Separation from Service
connected with a Change of Control and Separation from Service 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 Named Executive Officers
shall not occur prior to the time they otherwise would have, but for the
Separation from Service. Subject to Article 14, in the event that a
Participant's Restricted Stock Award Agreement does not set forth such
termination provisions, the following Separation from Service provisions shall
apply:
(a) In the event of a Participant's Separation from Service for any reason other
than death or Disability, all Shares of Restricted Stock which are unvested at
the date of termination shall be forfeited to the Company.

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

(b) Unless the Award qualifies for the Performance-Based Exception, in the event
of a Participant's Separation from Service due to death or Disability, all
Shares of Restricted Stock of such participant shall immediately become fully
vested on the date of termination and the restrictions shall lapse.
ARTICLE 8A
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
8A.1 GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. Subject to the terms and provisions of the
Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Restricted
Stock Units ("RSUs") to Participants in such amounts as the Committee shall
determine.
8A.2 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT. Each RSU grant shall be evidenced by an
Award Agreement that shall specify (i) the Participant to whom the Award shall
be made, (ii) the number of RSUs that are subject to the Award, (iii) the time
that the Award shall be granted, (iv) the duration and applicable conditions for
any applicable Period of Restriction, and (v) such other provisions as the
Committee shall determine. The number of RSUs granted to any Participant under
any Award shall be credited, as of the date of such Award, to an account
maintained on behalf of the Participant on the books of the Company. For all
purposes of the Plan, the account maintained by the Company for each Participant
shall constitute conclusive evidence of the Participant's Awards under the Plan,
absent manifest error.
8A.3 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARD. RSUs granted to Participants under the Plan
shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(i) No Award and no right under any such Award may be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution, until the lapse of any applicable Period of
Restriction and satisfaction of any other conditions specified by the Committee;
(ii) Subject to the limitations of the Plan and any other terms and conditions
applicable to a particular Award, at the end of any applicable Period of
Restriction, each such whole unit (except for any RSU canceled to pay
withholding taxes) shall automatically and without further action by the Company
be converted into one share of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided
in Section 4.3) and the Participant shall thereupon become a record holder of
each such share for all purposes. As promptly as practicable thereafter, the
Company shall issue to the Participant (or his or her legal representative,
beneficiary or heir) certificates for the shares of Common Stock issued upon
such conversion. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued pursuant
to this Plan or any Award and instead cash will be paid in lieu of any
fractional shares on such basis as is determined by the Committee; and
(iii) At no time prior to the conversion of RSUs into shares of Common Stock
shall a Participant be entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the Company in
respect of such RSUs or the shares of Common Stock into which such RSUs may be
converted, including the right to receive dividends in respect of, or to vote,
any such shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an award of RSUs
may include dividend equivalents, with such terms and conditions as may be
approved by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. Dividend
equivalents credited to a Participant may be paid currently or may be deemed to
be reinvested in additional Shares at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the date that such dividend was paid to stockholders, as
determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event will dividend equivalents on any RSUs that vest on the
basis of pre-established performance goals be payable before the RSUs have
become earned and payable.
8A.4 SEPARATION FROM SERVICE. Each Award Agreement shall set forth the extent to
which the Participant shall have the right to receive unvested RSUs following
Separation from Service. 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 RSUs issued pursuant
to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for Separation
from Service, including, but not limited to, Separation from Service for Cause
or Good Reason, or reasons relating to the breach or threatened breach of
restrictive covenants; provided, however, that, except in the cases of
Separation from Service connected with a Change of Control and Separation from
Service by reason of death or Disability, the vesting of RSUs which qualify for
the Performance-Based Exception and which are held by Named Executive Officers
shall not occur prior to the time they otherwise would have, but for the
Separation from Service. Subject to Article 14, in the event that a
Participant's Award Agreement does not set forth such Separation from Service
provisions, the following termination provisions shall apply:
(a) In the of event a Participant's Separation from Service for any reason other
than death or Disability, all RSUs of such Participant that are unvested at the
date of Separation from Service shall be forfeited to the Company.

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

(b) Unless the Award qualifies for the Performance-Based Exception, in the event
of a Participant's Separation from Service due to death or Disability, all RSUs
of such Participant shall immediately become fully vested on the date of
Separation from Service and all restrictions shall lapse.
8A.5 DEFERRAL OF VESTING RSUs. The Committee may permit a Participant
to defer the compensation that would otherwise be recognized upon vesting of
RSUs by filing (or completing online if such form is electronic) an election to
defer (in a form specified by the Company) with the Company that specifies the
later fixed date on which the RSUs will be paid and distributed to the
Participant. A Participant may make multiple subsequent deferral elections under
this paragraph for any given vested RSUs but any time requirements set forth
herein must be separately satisfied with respect to each subsequent deferral
election. All deferral elections must comply, at all times, with Section 409A of
the Code, any regulations issued with respect to Section 409A of the Code and
any other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service and authoritative on
the issue.
ARTICLE 9
PERFORMANCE UNITS AND PERFORMANCE SHARES
9.1 GRANT OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Subject to the terms of the Plan,
Performance Units and/or Performance Shares may be granted to Participants in
such amounts and upon such terms, and at any time and from time to time, as
shall be determined by the Committee.
9.2 VALUE OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Each Performance Unit shall have an
initial value that is established by the Committee at the time of grant. Each
Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of
a Share on the date of grant. The Committee shall set performance goals in its
discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine
the number and/or value of Performance Units/Shares that will be paid out to the
Participant. For purposes of this Article 9, the time period during which the
performance goals must be met shall be referred to as a "Performance Period" and
the Performance Period shall be a minimum of one year.
9.3 EARNING OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Subject to the terms of this Plan,
after the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance
Units/Shares shall be entitled to receive payout on the number and value of
Performance Units/Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period,
to be determined as a function to the extent to which the corresponding
performance goals have been achieved, as established by the Committee.
9.4 FORM AND TIMING OF PAYMENT OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. (a) Except as
provided below, payment of earned Performance Units/Shares shall be made in a
single lump sum as soon as reasonably practicable following the close of the
applicable Performance Period. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Committee,
in its sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Units/Shares in the form of
cash or in Shares which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value
of the earned Performance Units/Shares at the close of the applicable
Performance Period (or in a combination thereof). Such Shares may be granted
subject to any restrictions deemed appropriate by the Committee.
(b) At the time of grant or shortly thereafter, the Committee, at its discretion
and in accordance with the terms designated by the Committee, may provide for a
voluntary and/or mandatory deferral of all or any part of an otherwise earned
Performance Unit/Share Award. All deferrals, whether mandatory or elective, must
comply, at all times, with Section 409A of the Code, any regulations issued with
respect to Section 409A of the Code and any other guidance issued by the
Internal Revenue Service and authoritative on the issue.
(c) At the discretion of the Committee, Participants may be entitled to receive
any dividends declared with respect to Shares which have been earned but not yet
distributed to Participants in connection with grants of Performance Units
and/or Performance Shares (such dividends shall be subject to the same accrual,
forfeiture, and payout restrictions as apply to dividends earned with respect to
Shares of Restricted Stock, as set forth in Section 8.6 herein). In addition,
Participants may, at the discretion of the Committee, be entitled to exercise
their voting rights with respect to such Shares.
9.5 SEPARATION FROM SERVICE. Subject to Article 14, in the event of a
Participant's Separation from Service for any reason other than death,
Disability or Retirement, all Performance Units/Shares shall be forfeited by the
Participant to the Company. Subject to Article 14, in the event of a
Participant's Separation from Service during a Performance Period due to death,
Disability or Retirement, the Participant shall receive a prorated payout of the
Performance Units/Shares, unless the Committee determines otherwise. The
prorated payout shall be determined by the Committee, shall be based upon the
length of time that the Participant held the Performance Units/Shares during the
Performance Period, and shall further be adjusted based on the achievement of
the pre-established performance goals. Subject to Article 14, unless the
Committee determines

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

otherwise in the event of a Separation from Service due to death, Disability or
Retirement payment of earned Performance Units/Shares shall be made at the same
time as payments are made to Participants who did not have a Separation from
Service during the applicable Performance Period.
9.6 NONTRANSFERABILITY. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant's Award
Agreement, Performance Units/Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged,
assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution. Further, except as otherwise provided in a
Participant's Award Agreement, a Participant's rights under the Plan shall be
exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by a Participant or the
Participant's legal representative.
ARTICLE 10
PERFORMANCE MEASURES
(a) Unless and until the Committee proposes for stockholder vote and
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 Named Executive Officers which are
designed to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, the performance goals
to be used for purposes of such grants shall be established by the Committee in
writing and stated in terms of the attainment of specified levels of, or
percentage changes in, any one or more of the following measurements: revenue,
primary or fully-diluted earnings per Share, pretax income, cash flow from
operations, total cash flow, return on equity, return on capital, return on
assets, net operating profits after taxes, economic value added, total
stockholder return or return on sales, or any individual performance objective
which is measured solely in terms of quantitative targets related to the Company
or the Company's business, or any combination thereof. In addition, such
performance goals may be based in whole or in part upon the performance of the
Company, a Subsidiary, division and/or other operational unit, under one or more
of such measures.
(b) The degree of payout and/or vesting of such Awards designed to qualify for
the Performance-Based Exception shall be determined based upon the written
certification of the Committee as to the extent to which the performance goals
and any other material terms and conditions precedent to such payment and/or
vesting have been satisfied. The Committee shall have the discretion to adjust
the determinations of the degree of attainment of the pre-established
performance goals; provided, however, that the performance goals applicable to
Awards which are designed to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, and
which are held by Named Executive Officers, may not be adjusted so as to
increase the payment under the Award (the Committee shall retain the discretion
to adjust such performance goals upward, or to otherwise reduce the amount of
the payment and/or vesting of the Award relative to the pre-established
performance goals).
(c) On or before the latest possible date that will not jeopardize the
qualification of Awards for the Performance-Based Exception (to the extent
applicable), the Committee shall have the discretion to include or exclude
unusual, atypical or non-recurring items in determining the applicable
performance goals for a particular performance period.
(d) 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
Section 162(m) of the Code and, thus, which use performance measures other than
those specified above.
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 writing
with the Secretary of the Company during the Participant's lifetime. In the
absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's
death shall be paid to the Participant's estate.
ARTICLE 12
DEFERRALS
The Committee may permit 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 upon the exercise of any Option
or by virtue of the lapse or waiver of restrictions with respect to RSUs (as
provided in Section 8A.5) or 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. All deferral elections must comply, at all times, with
Section 409A of the Code, any regulations issued with respect to Section 409A of
the Code and any other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service and
authoritative on the issue.
ARTICLE 13
RIGHTS OF SERVICE PROVIDERS
13.1 RIGHT TO TERMINATE SERVICES. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or
limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any Participant's
Services at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in
the Service of the Company or any Subsidiary. For purposes of this Plan,
temporary absence from Service because of illness, vacation, approved leaves of
absence, and transfers of employment among the Company and its Subsidiaries,
shall not be considered a Separation from Service or to interrupt continuous
Service. Conversion of a Participant's employment relationship to a consulting
or other Service arrangement shall not result in termination of previously
granted Awards.
13.2 PARTICIPATION. No Service Provider 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
CHANGE OF CONTROL
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, unless otherwise specifically
prohibited under applicable laws, or by the rules and regulations of any
governing governmental agencies or national securities exchanges:
(a) Any and all Options and SARs granted hereunder shall become immediately
exercisable, and shall remain exercisable throughout their entire term;
(b) Any Period of Restriction and other restrictions imposed on Restricted
Shares and RSUs shall lapse; and
(c) Unless otherwise specified in a Participant's Award Agreement at time of
grant, the maximum payout opportunities attainable under all outstanding Awards
of 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 of Control. The vesting of all such Awards shall be accelerated as of the
effective date of the Change of Control, and in full settlement of such Awards,
there shall be paid out in cash to Participants within thirty (30) days
following the effective date of the Change of Control the maximum of payout
opportunities associated with such outstanding Awards.
ARTICLE 15
AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION
15.1 AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Board may at any time and from
time to time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part,
subject to any requirement of stockholder approval imposed by applicable law,
rule or regulation. The Board may not, without shareholder approval,
(i) materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants, (ii) materially
increase the number of securities which may be issued upon the Plan, or
(iii) materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan.

15.2 AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED. 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.
15.3 NO REPRICING OF OPTIONS/SARs. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the
contrary, the repricing of Options or SARs is prohibited without prior approval
of the Company's stockholders. For this purpose, a "repricing" means any of the
following (or any other action that has the same effect as any of the
following): (A) changing the terms of an Option or SAR to lower its Option Price
or SAR grant price; (B) any other action that is treated as a "repricing" under
generally accepted accounting principles; and (C) repurchasing for cash or
canceling an Option or SAR at a time when its Option Price or SAR grant price is
greater than the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for
another Award, unless the cancellation

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

and exchange occurs in connection with a change in capitalization or similar
change under Section 4.3. A cancellation and exchange under clause (C) would be
considered a "repricing" regardless of whether it is treated as a "repricing"
under generally accepted accounting principles and regardless of whether it is
voluntary on the part of the Participant.
ARTICLE 16
WITHHOLDING
16.1 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 the Plan.
16.2 SHARE WITHHOLDING. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise
of Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock or RSUs,
or upon any other taxable event arising as a result of Awards granted hereunder,
Participants may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, or the Company
may require, that such withholding requirement be satisfied, 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
would be imposed on the transaction. All such elections shall be made in
writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or
limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.
ARTICLE 17
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
existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect merger,
consolidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the business and/or
assets of the Company or otherwise.
ARTICLE 18
LEGAL CONSTRUCTION
18.1 GENDER AND NUMBER. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any
masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine, the plural shall
include the singular and the singular shall include the plural.
18.2 SEVERABILITY. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal
or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the
remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if
as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.
18.3 REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares
under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations,
and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities
exchanges as may be required.
18.4 SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. With respect to Insiders, transactions under
this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or
its successors under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the Plan
or action by the Committee fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void,
to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee.
18.5 GOVERNING LAW. To the extent not pre-empted by federal law, the Plan, and
all agreements hereunder, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by
the laws of the State of Delaware.
18.6 COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 409A. The Plan is intended to comply with
Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the
contrary, the Plan shall be interpreted, operated and administered consistent
with this intent. In that regard, and notwithstanding any provision of the Plan
to the contrary, the Company reserves the right to amend the Plan or any Award
granted under the Plan, by action of the Committee, without the consent of any
affected Participant, to the extent deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes
of maintaining compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations
promulgated thereunder. In addition, any payments under the Plan of an amount
that is deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code in connection with
a Participant's termination of employment shall not be made earlier than six
(6) months after the date of termination of employment to the extent required by
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code.
