3.     Administration.

          The Plan shall be administered by the Committee; provided that such
administrative authority shall not extend to Section 8 ("Non-Employee Director
Options") or Section 9 ("Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock"), the intent
being that, as to the Awards made under those Sections, this Plan shall
constitute a formula plan.  The Committee shall have the authority in its
discretion, subject to and not inconsistent with the express provisions of the
Plan (including the preceding sentence), to administer the Plan and to exercise
all the powers and authorities either specifically granted to it under the Plan
or necessary or advisable in the administration of the Plan, including, without
limitation, the authority to grant Awards; to determine the persons to whom and
the time or times at which Awards shall be granted; to determine the type and
number of Awards to be granted, the number of shares of Stock to which an Award
may relate and the terms, conditions, restrictions and performance criteria
relating to any Award; to certify as to the extent to which any performance
criteria have been attained; and to determine whether, to what extent, and under
what circumstances an Award may be settled, canceled, forfeited, exchanged, or
surrendered; to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the
criteria and performance objectives (if any) included in, Awards in recognition
of unusual or non-recurring events affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate, or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or
accounting principles; to designate Affiliates; to construe and interpret the
Plan and any Award; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations
relating to the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of the Award
Agreements (which need not be identical for each Grantee); and to make all other
determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

          The Committee may appoint a chairman and a secretary and may make such
rules and regulations for the conduct of its business as it shall deem
advisable, and shall keep minutes of its meetings.  All determinations of the
Committee shall be made by a majority of its members either present in person or
participating by conference telephone at a meeting or by written consent.  All
decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be final
and binding on all persons, including the Company, and any Subsidiary, Affiliate
or Grantee (or any person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any
Grantee) and any stockholder.  The Committee may delegate to one or more of its
members or to one or more agents such administrative duties as it may deem
advisable, and the Committee or any person to whom it has delegated duties as
aforesaid may employ one or more persons to render advice with respect to any
responsibility the Committee or such person may have under the Plan.  The
Committee may, upon such terms and conditions and with such limitations as it
deems appropriate, delegate to the Chief Executive Officer, any Committee of the
Board of Directors or the Executive Committee authority to make Awards (and
determine the terms of such Awards) to persons who are not officers of the
Company (assistant officers not being considered officers for such purpose);
provided that all such Awards shall be reported to the Committee and (except in
the case of such Awards made by a Committee of the Board) shall be revoked
unless ratified by the Committee. 

          No member of the Board or Committee shall be liable for any action
taken or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award
granted hereunder.

4.     Eligibility.

          Awards may be granted to selected employees and independent
contractors of the Company and its present or future Subsidiaries and
Affiliates, in the discretion of the Committee.  In determining the persons to
whom Awards shall be granted and the type of any Award (including the number of
shares to be covered by such Award), the Committee shall take into account such
factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in connection with accomplishing
the purposes of the Plan.  Awards to Non-Employee Directors shall be solely in
the form of NQSOs and Restricted Stock, which shall be subject to the provisions
of Section 8 and 9 of the Plan, and in Deferred Stock Awards pursuant to Section
6(h)(v) of the Plan.

5.     Stock Subject to the Plan.

          The maximum number of shares of Stock reserved for the grant of Awards
under the Plan shall be 14,700,000, subject to adjustment as provided herein. 
Originally, 4,300,000 shares of Stock were reserved for the grant of Awards
under the Plan.  After the July 1996 three-for-one stock split, this increased
to 12,900,000 and was further increased to 14,700,000 after amendments to the
Plan were approved by the Board on January 21, 2003, subject to shareholder
approval. In order to determine the number of shares of Stock remaining
available under the Plan after said stock split, each of the following events
occurring on or prior to the July 2, 1996 record date of the stock split (or the
July 23, 1996 distribution date in the case of Option exercises) shall be deemed
to involve three times the number of shares of Stock that were actually
involved: (x) grants, exercises and forfeitures of Options; (y) grants, vesting
and forfeitures of Restricted Stock (including performance stock and Director’s
Restricted Stock); and (z) grants and forfeitures of Deferred Stock Awards.

          The shares reserved for Awards under the Plan may, in whole or in
part, be authorized but unissued shares or shares that shall have been or may be
reacquired by the Company in the open market, in private transactions or
otherwise.  If any shares subject to an Award are forfeited, canceled, exchanged
or surrendered or if an Award otherwise terminates or expires without a
distribution of shares to the Grantee, the shares of stock with respect to such
Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange,
surrender, termination or expiration, again be available for Awards under the
Plan; provided that, in the case of forfeiture, cancellation, exchange or
surrender of shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units with respect
to which dividends or Dividend Equivalents have been paid or accrued, the number
of shares with respect to such Awards shall not be available for Awards
hereunder unless, in the case of shares with respect to which dividends or
Dividend Equivalents were accrued but unpaid, or in the case of shares with
respect to which a stock split in the form of a stock dividend was paid, such
dividends and Dividend Equivalents are also forfeited, canceled, exchanged or
surrendered.  Upon the exercise of any Award granted in tandem with any other
Awards or Awards, such related Award or Awards shall be canceled to the extent
of the number of shares of Stock as to which the Award is exercised and,
notwithstanding the foregoing, such number of shares shall no longer be
available for Awards under the Plan.

          In the event that the Committee shall determine that any dividend or
other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Stock, or other property),
recapitalization, Stock split, reverse split, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, spinoff, combination, repurchase, or share exchange, or other
similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Stock such that an
adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the
rights of Grantees under the Plan, then the Committee shall make such equitable
changes or adjustments as it deems necessary or appropriate to any or all of (i)
the number and kind of shares of Stock which may thereafter be issued in
connection with Awards, (ii) the number and kind of shares of Stock issued or
issuable in respect of outstanding Awards, and (iii) the exercise price, grant
price, or purchase price relating to any Award; provided that, with respect to
ISOs, such adjustment shall be made in accordance with Section 424(h) of the
Code and; provided , further, that in the case of Awards under Sections 8 and 9,
equitable changes or adjustments of the types specified in clauses (i), (ii) and
(iii) above shall be made. 

6.     Specific Terms of Awards.

               (a) General.  The term of each Award shall be for such period as
may be determined by the Committee.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and any
applicable Award Agreement, payments to be made by the Company or a Subsidiary
or Affiliate upon the grant, maturation, or exercise of an Award may be made in
such forms as the Committee shall determine at the date of grant or thereafter,
including, without limitation, cash, Stock, or other property, and may be made
in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis.  The
Committee may make rules relating to installment or deferred payments with
respect to Awards, including the rate of interest to be credited with respect to
such payments.  In addition to the foregoing, the Committee may impose on any
Award or the exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter, such
additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the
Plan, as the Committee shall determine.  The authority given to the Committee
under this Section 6 is, however, subject to Section 6A of this Plan in the case
of Awards to Officers as defined in Section 6A.

               (b) Options.  The Committee is authorized to grant Options to
Grantees on the following terms and conditions:

                    (i) Type of Award.  The Award Agreement evidencing the grant
of an Option under the Plan shall designate the Option as an ISO or an NQSO,
provided that an ISO may not be granted to independent contractors or
Non-Employee Directors.

                    (ii) Exercise Price.  The exercise price per share of Stock
purchasable under an Option shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a
share on the date of the grant of such Option; provided that in no event shall
the exercise price for the purchase of shares be less than par value. 
Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan to the contrary, once the exercise
price of any outstanding Option or in any Option granted in the future has been
determined, it may not be reduced except (i) in connection with antidilution and
other similar equitable adjustments approved by the Committee pursuant to the
last paragraph of Section 5 or (ii) with the consent of a majority of a quorum
of the stockholders of the Company.  The exercise price for Stock subject to an
Option may be paid in cash or (if so permitted by the Committee or if so
provided in the Award Agreement) by an exchange of Stock previously owned by the
Grantee, or a combination of both, in an amount having a combined value equal to
such exercise price.  A Grantee may also elect to pay all or a portion of the
aggregate exercise price by having shares of Stock with a Fair Market Value on
the date of exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price (i) withheld by the
Company, if so permitted by the Committee or so provided in the Award Agreement,
or (ii) sold by a broker-dealer under circumstances meeting the requirements of
12 C.F.R. §220 or any successor thereof.

                    (iii) Term and Exercisability of Options.  The date on which
the Committee adopts a resolution expressly granting an Option shall be
considered the day on which such Option is granted, unless the Committee shall
determine that the Option shall be granted effective as of a specified date in
the future, in which case such specified future date shall be considered the day
on which such Option is granted.  Options shall be exercisable over the exercise
period (which shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant), at such times
and upon such conditions as the Committee may determine, as reflected in the
Award Agreement; provided that, the Committee shall have the authority to
accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding Option at such time and under
such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.  An Option
may be exercised to the extent of any or all full shares of Stock as to which
the Option has become exercisable, by giving written notice of such exercise to
the Committee or its designated agent.

                    (iv) Termination of Employment, etc.  An Option may not be
exercised unless the Grantee is then in the employ of, or then maintains an
independent contractor relationship with, the Company or a Subsidiary or an
Affiliate (or a company or a parent or subsidiary company of such company
issuing or assuming the Option in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the
Code applies), and unless the Grantee has remained continuously so employed, or
continuously maintained such relationship, since the date of grant of the Option
(or, in the case of a Grantee who on the date of grant was a “prospective
employee,” since the date of first becoming an employee); provided that, the
Award Agreement may contain provisions extending the exercisability of Options
to a date not later than the expiration date of such Option.

                    (v) Maximum Number of Shares.  Options may not be granted
hereunder to any one person in any ten-year period in an amount greater than
fifteen (15%) percent of the total number of shares of Stock originally
available for grant of Awards under this Plan (i.e. not more than 15% of
12,900,000 after giving effect to the stock split; and for purposes of
calculating this 15% figure, Options granted to any Grantee prior to July 23,
1996 shall be deemed to have been tripled).

                    (vi) Other Provisions.  Options may be subject to such other
conditions including, but not limited to, restrictions on transferability of the
shares acquired upon exercise of such Options, as the Committee may prescribe in
its discretion.

                    (vii) Limitations on ISOs. No ISOs may be awarded under this
Plan after January 21, 2013.  ISOs may be awarded only from 1,800,000 shares of
Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to this Plan after shareholder approval of
the amendment to the Plan in April 2003.

               (c) SARs and Limited SARs.  The Committee is authorized to grant
SARs and Limited SARs to Grantees on the following terms and conditions:

                    (i) In General.  Unless the Committee determines otherwise,
an SAR or a Limited SAR (1) granted in tandem with an NQSO may be granted at the
time of grant of the related NQSO or at any time thereafter or (2) granted in
tandem with an ISO may only be granted at the time of grant of the related ISO. 
An SAR or Limited SAR granted in tandem with an Option shall be exercisable only
to the extent the underlying Option is exercisable.

                    (ii) SARs.  An SAR shall confer on the Grantee a right to
receive with respect to each share subject thereto, upon exercise thereof, the
excess of (1) the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the date of
exercise over (2) the grant price of the SAR (which in the case of an SAR
granted in tandem with an Option shall be equal to the exercise price of the
underlying Option, and which in the case of any other SAR shall be such price as
the Committee may determine).

                    (iii) Limited SARs.  A Limited SAR shall confer on the
Grantee a right to receive with respect to each share subject thereto,
automatically upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, an amount equal to the
excess of (1) the Change in Control Price (or in the case of a Limited SAR
granted in tandem with an ISO, the Fair Market Value of one share on the date of
such Change in Control) over (2) the grant price of the Limited SAR (which in
the case of a Limited SAR granted in tandem with an Option shall be equal to the
exercise price of the underlying Option, and which in the case of any other
Limited SAR shall be such price as the Committee determines).

               (d) Restricted Stock.  The Committee is authorized to grant
Restricted Stock (which may be designated as "performance stock") to Grantees on
the following terms and conditions:

                    (i) Issuance and Restrictions.  Restricted Stock shall be
subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions, if any,
as the Committee may impose at the date of grant or thereafter, which
restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such
circumstances, in such installments, or otherwise, as the Committee may
determine.  Except to the extent restricted under the Award Agreement relating
to the Restricted Stock, a Grantee granted Restricted Stock shall have all of
the rights of a stockholder including, without limitation, the right to vote
Restricted Stock and the right to receive dividends thereon.

                    (ii) Forfeiture.  Upon termination of employment or
termination of the independent contractor relationship during the applicable
restriction period, Restricted Stock and any accrued but unpaid dividends or
Dividend Equivalents that are at that time subject to restrictions shall be
forfeited; provided that, the Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in
any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that restrictions
or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock will be waived in whole or
in part in the event of terminations resulting from specified causes, and the
Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of
Restricted Stock.

                    (iii) Certificates for Stock.  Restricted Stock granted
under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall
determine.  If certificates representing Restricted Stock are registered in the
name of the Grantee, such certificates shall bear an appropriate legend
referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such
Restricted Stock, and/or the Company shall retain physical possession of the
certificate.

                    (iv) Dividends.  Dividends paid on Restricted Stock shall be
either paid at the dividend payment date, or deferred for payment to such date
as determined by the Committee, in cash or in shares of unrestricted Stock
having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends.  Stock
distributed in connection with a stock split or stock dividend, and other
property distributed as a dividend, shall be subject to restrictions and a risk
of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which
such Stock or other property has been distributed.

                    (v) Maximum Issuance.  No more than an aggregate of 250,000
shares of Stock may be awarded under this Plan after February 1, 2003 under
Sections 6(d), 6(e), 6(f) and 6(i) of this Plan.

               (e) Restricted Stock Units.  The Committee is authorized to grant
Restricted Stock Units to Grantees, subject to the following terms and
conditions:

                    (i) Award and Restrictions.  Delivery of Stock or cash, as
determined by the Committee, will occur upon expiration of the deferral period
specified for Restricted Stock Units by the Committee.  In addition, Restricted
Stock Units shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose,
at the date of grant or thereafter, which restrictions may lapse at the
expiration of the deferral period or at earlier or later specified times,
separately or in combination, in installments or otherwise, as the Committee may
determine.

                    (ii) Forfeiture.  Upon termination of employment or
termination of the independent contractor relationship during the applicable
deferral period or portion thereof to which forfeiture conditions apply, or upon
failure to satisfy any other conditions precedent to the delivery of Stock or
cash to which such Restricted Stock Units relate, all Restricted Stock Units
that are then subject to deferral or restriction shall be forfeited; provided
that, the Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award
Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that restrictions or
forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock Units will be waived in whole
or in part in the event of termination resulting from specified causes, and the
Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of
Restricted Stock Units.

                    (iii) Maximum Issuance.  No more than an aggregate of
250,000 shares of Stock may be awarded under this Plan after February 1, 2003
under Sections 6(d), 6(e), 6(f) and 6(i) of this Plan.

               (f) Stock Awards in Lieu of Cash Awards.  The Committee is
authorized to grant Stock as a bonus, or to grant other Awards, in lieu of
Company commitments to pay cash under other plans or compensatory arrangements. 
Stock or Awards granted hereunder shall have such other terms as shall be
determined by the Committee. No more than an aggregate of 250,000 shares of
Stock may be awarded under this Plan after February 1, 2003 under Sections 6(d),
6(e), 6(f) and 6(i) of this Plan.

               (g) Dividend Equivalents and Interest Equivalents.  The Committee
is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents and Interest Equivalents to
Grantees. 

                    (i) The Committee may provide, at the date of grant or
thereafter, that Dividend Equivalents and/or Interest Equivalents shall be paid
or distributed when accrued or shall be deemed to have been reinvested in
additional Stock or deferred cash, as the case may be, or other investment
vehicles as the Committee may specify, provided that Dividend Equivalents or
Interest Equivalents (other than freestanding Dividend Equivalents or Interest
Equivalents) shall be subject to all conditions and restrictions of the
underlying Awards to which they relate.

                    (ii) Interest Equivalents shall be computed at a
market-based rate which, unless the Committee otherwise determines, shall be
compounded quarterly at an annual rate equal to the annual rate on the last day
of the calendar quarter of 10-year U.S. Treasury Notes plus 1% per annum.

               (h) Deferred Stock Awards and Deferred Cash Awards.  The
Committee  is authorized to grant Deferred Stock Awards and Deferred Cash
Awards, including, but not limited to, Deferred Stock Awards in lieu of
directors retainer fees, subject to the following terms and conditions:

                    (i) The Committee shall establish, in the name of each
Grantee receiving a Deferred Stock Award, a Common Stock Account to which the
Deferred Stock Award, and any Dividend Equivalents thereon (unless paid
currently in the discretion of the Committee), will be credited.  The Company
shall not be under any obligation to acquire the Stock to pay a Deferred Stock
Award (or Dividend Equivalent) at any time prior to the date on which such
payment shall be due.  The Committee shall establish, in the name of each
Grantee receiving a Deferred Cash Award, a Deferred Cash Account to which the
Deferred Cash Award, and any Interest Equivalents thereon (unless paid currently
in the discretion of the Committee), will be credited. 

                    (ii) The number of equivalent shares of Stock credited to a
Common Stock Account shall accrue Dividend Equivalents on such shares, as if
actual shares of Stock had been issued, from the date the Deferred Stock is
credited to the Common Stock Account to and including the date on which the
amount credited to the Common Stock Account is deemed to have been paid.  Such
Dividend Equivalents will be credited to the Common Stock Account as additional
equivalent shares of Stock.  In the case of a stock dividend, the number of
shares to be credited shall be the number of shares of stock that would have
been issued on the equivalent number of shares of Stock in the Common Stock
Account. In other cases, the number of equivalent shares (including fractional
shares) to be so credited will be determined by dividing the Dividend
Equivalents by the Fair Market Value of the Stock for the day on which the
related dividend is paid.  If any dividend is paid on the Stock of the Company,
other than in cash or Stock, the Committee shall conclusively determine the Fair
Market Value in cash of such dividend.

                    (iii) The amount of Deferred Cash credited to a Deferred
Cash Account shall accrue Interest Equivalents from the date the Deferred Cash
is credited to the Deferred Cash Account to and including the date on which the
amount credited to the Deferred Cash Account is deemed to have been paid.  Such
Interest Equivalents will be credited to the Deferred Cash Account as additional
cash which shall, in turn, accrue further Interest Equivalents.  Interest
Equivalents will be credited, as of the last day of each calendar quarter on the
average daily balance of deferred cash in said account during said quarter.  If
any Deferred Cash is disbursed to a Grantee or a Beneficiary on a date other
than the last day of a calendar quarter, Interest Equivalents (properly prorated
for the partial quarter) shall be credited on the Deferred Cash so disbursed for
the partial calendar quarter, but shall be computed based on the interest rate
in effect on the business day next preceding the date of disbursement.

                    (iv) Payments from Common Stock and Deferred Cash Accounts. 

               A.  Except as provided below, payment of the total amount
credited to a Grantee’s Common Stock Account or Deferred Cash Account, as the
case may be, shall be made to him, or, in case of his death prior to the
commencement of payments on account of such total amount, to his Beneficiary, at
the Grantee’s election made in accordance with the last two sentences of this
paragraph (i) in sixty (60) quarterly installments or (ii) in five annual
installments or (iii) in a single lump sum, commencing the first day of the
calendar quarter, or as soon thereafter as practicable, following the date on
which he ceases, by reason of death or otherwise, to be an employee or a
director.  The amount of each payment shall be the amount credited to such
account multiplied by a factor, the numerator of which is one (1) and the
denominator of which is the number of installments remaining to be paid.  If the
aggregate number of shares credited to a Common Stock Account shall not be
divisible into whole shares by the applicable number of installments, each
installment except the last shall consist of the nearest number of whole shares
into which such aggregate number of shares shall be divisible by the applicable
number of installments.  The last installment shall consist of the total amount
of whole shares of remaining Deferred Stock credited to such account and any
fractional share shall be paid in cash.  The Secretary to the Committee shall
solicit an installment election from each recipient of a Deferred Stock Award or
a Deferred Cash Award who is not yet receiving distributions under this Section
6(h)(iv) by December 1, 2003.  Persons who receive their first Deferred Stock or
Deferred Cash Award after that date shall make an installment election within
the thirty day period after they first receive such an Award.  Any recipient of
such an Award may change his installment election up until the twelve month
period preceding the date of his termination or retirement as an employee or
director.  Changes made during the twelve month period preceding termination or
retirement will be ignored.

               B.  In case of the death of an employee after the commencement of
payments to him in respect of his Common Stock Account or Deferred Cash Account,
as the case may be, the then remaining unpaid portion thereof shall continue to
be paid in installments, at such times and in such manner as if he were living,
to his Beneficiary.

               C.  With respect to the total amount in a Common Stock Account or
Deferred Cash Account, as the case may be, or the then remaining unpaid portion
thereof, which shall be  payable to any person who shall no longer be an
employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or to the
Beneficiary of any such person, the Committee shall possess absolute discretion
to accelerate the time of payment of such total amount or remaining unpaid
portion, in whole or in part, as the case may be.  In addition, the Committee
shall possess absolute discretion to accelerate to any extent such total amount
or remaining unpaid portion, even while a person remains an employee, if there
occurs financial hardship or any other event which the Committee deems, in its
absolute discretion, to constitute an extraordinary circumstance. 

                    (v) By notice to the Committee at least 15 days in advance
of the commencement of any semiannual period with respect to which directors'
retainer fees are paid, as long as the Committee approves such election at its
next regularly scheduled meeting, any Non-Employee Director of the Company may
elect to receive Deferred Stock Awards in lieu of retainer fees for serving on
the Board.  The amount of each such Deferred Stock Award shall be determined by
dividing the amount of the fee that would have been paid but for the election by
such director to receive a Deferred Stock Award by the Fair Market Value of a
share of Stock on the last day of the period with respect to which such retainer
would have been paid and rounding the result to the nearest whole share.  Any
election by a director pursuant to this provision shall remain in place until
the commencement of the first semiannual retainer period after such director
gives notice to the Committee that he or she elects to receive future retainer
fees in cash.

                    (i)   Other Stock- or Cash-Based Awards.  The Committee is
authorized to grant to Grantees Other Stock-Based Awards or Other Cash-Based
Awards as an element of or supplement to any other Award under the Plan or in
addition to, or in lieu of, any other Award under the Plan, as deemed by the
Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan.  Such Awards may be
granted with value and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or any
other factors designated by the Committee, or valued by reference to the
performance of specified Subsidiaries or Affiliates.  Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, other Cash Based Awards may be granted as annual
bonus, as multi-year performance cash awards, or otherwise.  The Committee shall
determine the terms and conditions of such Awards at the date of grant or
thereafter. No more than an aggregate of 250,000 shares of Stock may be awarded
under this Plan after February 1, 2003 under Sections 6(d), 6(e), 6(f) and 6(i)
of this Plan.

6A.     Special Restrictions on Awards to Officers. 

Subject to Sections 6A(h) and 6A(j), this Section 6A applies to all Awards to
“Officers”; provided that this Section 6A applies to Options, SARs and Limited
SARs only to the extent specifically stated in this Section.  For purposes of
this Section 6A, an “Officer” is any employee who would be treated at the time
an Award is granted as an officer of the Company pursuant to the executive
compensation disclosure rules under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the provisions of the Plan disregarded under Section 6A(a) below
shall be reinstated and fully applicable to all Awards granted to Officers
pursuant to this Section 6A to the extent that, as of the end of the calendar
year following the year in which the Award is granted, they are not “covered
employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m)(3) of the Code.

               (a) Intent.  Awards subject to this Section 6A are intended to
qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C)
of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.  This Section 6A shall
be interpreted consistently with such intent and any provisions of the Plan
inconsistent therewith shall not apply to any Awards subject to this Section
6A.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall have
no discretion to increase the value of any Awards subject to this Section 6A. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards granted hereunder shall be subject to such
other provisions of the Plan (as modified by this Section 6A) as may be
determined by the Committee.

               (b) Maximum Awards.  The maximum Awards (other than Options, SARs
and Limited SARs) that may be granted to any Officer pursuant to this Section 6A
on account of any calendar year shall not exceed the greater of (i) five hundred
percent (500%) of the Officer’s base salary for that year or (ii) $5,000,000. 
Awards shall be considered to be on account of the calendar year in which the
relevant performance periods terminate.  Awards granted pursuant to Section
6A(h) shall not be taken into account in applying the foregoing limit.  The
maximum number of shares of Stock subject to an Option, SAR or Limited SAR that
may be granted hereunder to an Officer during any ten-year period is set forth
in Section 6(b)(v).

               (c) Designation of Performance Goals.  The Committee shall
establish specific objective targets, schedules, thresholds or goals
(“Performance Goals”) for each Award subject to this Section 6A; provided that,
at the time of the grant of any Award, the achievement of the Performance Goal
shall be substantially uncertain.  The Performance Goals designated by the
Committee shall be determined based upon one or more of the business criteria
set forth in Exhibit A hereto (“Performance Measures”).  To the extent
applicable, the Committee may specify a Performance Measure in relation to total
Company performance or in relation to the performance of identifiable business
unit(s) of the Company.  A Performance Goal may be expressed in any form as the
Committee may determine including, but not limited to: (1) percentage growth,
(2) absolute growth, (3) cumulative growth, (4) performance in relation to an
index, (5) performance in relation to peer company performance, (6) a designated
absolute amount and (7) per share of Stock outstanding. The Performance Goals so
established may exclude the effects of certain events or categories of events
specifically identified by the Committee.  Nothing shall preclude the Committee
from designating different Performance Measures and Performance Goals for Awards
granted to different Officers in the same performance period.

               (d) Determination of Awards.  The Committee shall have discretion
to structure the types of Awards granted to Officers.  Such Awards may be either
Awards having a performance period of one year or less (such as, for example, an
annual bonus plan providing for a cash or a Stock bonus) or Awards which vest
over longer periods (such as, for example, a Performance Stock Award or
Performance Cash Award which might vest after a period of two or more years). 
No later than 90 days after the commencement of a performance period (but, in
any event, within the first 25% of such performance period, if earlier), the
Committee shall designate or approve as to the Awards relating to such period,
(i) the Officers who will be Grantees, if any, (ii) the types of Awards (which
will be selected from the types of Awards permitted under Section 6), (iii) the
Performance Measures applicable to each Award, (iv) if there is more than one
Performance Measure applicable to a single Award, the weighting, or other role,
of the Performance Measures in determining the Award, (v) the Performance Goals
and payout matrix or formula for each Performance Measure, (vi) the performance
period or periods, (vii) the target Award or Awards for each Grantee, (viii) the
extent to which, and the circumstances under which, the Award may pay out at
greater than, or less than, target levels, and (ix) to the extent required under
Code Section 162(m), the maximum dollar amount a Grantee may earn with respect
to a performance period.

               (e) Payment of Awards.  Subject to Section 7 of the Plan (“Change
in Control Provisions”), an Award subject to this Section 6A shall vest only to
the extent that the applicable Performance Goal or Goals, if any, have been
attained.  As a condition to the vesting of any Award, the Committee shall first
certify, by resolution of the Committee, that the applicable Performance Goal or
Goals have been attained and the other applicable Plan provisions have been
satisfied.  Following the end of a performance period, the Committee shall
determine the amount of each Award that vests for each Grantee by:

                    (1) comparing actual performance for each Performance
Measure against the payout matrix approved for such period,

                    (2) multiplying the payout percentage from the payout matrix
for each Performance Measure by the appropriate weighting factor, if applicable,
and

                    (3) summing the applicable weighted payout percentages and
multiplying their overall payout percentage by the Grantee’s Award

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary (but provided
that the right to do so is specifically retained in the applicable Award
Agreement), the Committee in its sole discretion may reduce any Award to any
Grantee to any amount, including zero, prior to the certification by resolution
of the Committee of the amount of such Award.  The amount of an Award that vests
for a calendar year or other performance period shall be determined as soon as
practicable after such period and shall be paid no later than 75 days following
the end of such year or other period.

               (f) Grants of Options and SARs.  The Committee may grant Options,
SARs and Limited SARs the vesting of which is not contingent upon the attainment
of any Performance Goal or Goals.  Except as provided in Section 6A(h), but
subject to Section 6(b)(ii), the exercise or grant price, as applicable, of each
share of Stock subject to such Options, SARs and Limited SARs shall not be less
than the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the date of grant.

               (g) Deferred Payments.  The Committee, in its discretion, may
elect to defer payment of any Award until such date before or after retirement
as a Grantee may request upon such terms and conditions as may be approved or
established by the Committee in its sole judgment.  Such terms may include the
payment of Interest or Dividend Equivalents on deferred amounts.

               (h) Non-Performance-Based Compensation.  Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Section 6A, the Committee may grant Awards to Officers that
are not subject to this Section 6A.  All Awards granted by the Committee shall
indicate whether or not they are subject to this Section 6A.

               (i) Valuation.  Whenever in this Section 6A there is a reference
to a maximum dollar value of a stock-based Award (including but not limited to a
Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit, a Deferred Stock Award or other
Stock-Based Award), the dollar value is determined as of the date of the grant
of the Award and not as of the date of vesting.  If one type of Award is
substituted for another (such as, for example, a Deferred Stock Award being
substituted for a Restricted Stock Award or for an Award of Restricted Stock
Units, where each Award is based upon the same number of shares of Common
Stock), the value of the substitute Award for this purpose is the same as the
Award for which it is substituted.  Whenever in this Section 6A there is a
reference to a maximum dollar value of an Award, Dividend Equivalents and
Interest Equivalents (other than free-standing Dividend Equivalents and Interest
Equivalents) shall not be counted in determining such maximum amount. 

               (j) Grant-by-Grant Determination.   The Committee may grant
Awards a portion of which satisfy the provisions of this Section 6A and a
portion of which do not.  In such a case, the Award shall be deemed to be the
grant of two Awards, one subject to this Section 6A and the other granted
pursuant to Section 6A(h).

               (k) Substitute Awards.  The Committee may establish procedures
under which one Award is substituted for an equivalent Award of a different
type; such as a Deferred Stock Award being substituted for an Award of an
equivalent number of shares of Restricted Stock.  Nothing contained in this
Section 6A requires the substitute Award to be subject to Performance Goals in
addition to the Performance Goals of the Award for which it was substituted.

7.     Change in Control Provisions.  In the event of a Change of Control:

               (a) any Award carrying a right to exercise that was not
previously exercisable and vested shall become fully exercisable and vested; and

               (b) the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions,
and forfeiture conditions applicable to any other Award granted under the Plan
shall lapse and such Awards shall be deemed fully vested, and any performance
conditions imposed with respect to Awards shall be deemed to be fully achieved.

8.     Non-Employee Director Options.  Notwithstanding any of the other
provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 8 shall
apply only to grants of Options to Non-Employee Directors.  Except as set forth
in this Section 8, the other provisions of the Plan shall apply to grants of
Options to Non-Employee Directors to the extent not inconsistent with this
Section.

               (a) General.  Non-Employee Directors shall receive NQSOs in
accordance with this Section 8 and may not be granted Stock Appreciation Rights
or Incentive Stock Options under this Plan.  The purchase price per share of
Stock purchasable under Options granted to Non-Employee Directors shall be the
Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant.  No Agreement with any
Non-Employee Director may alter the provisions of this Section and no Option
granted to a Non-Employee Director may be subject to a discretionary
acceleration of exercisability.

               (b) Grants to New Non-Employee Directors.  Each Non- Employee
Director who is elected to the Board for the first time will, at the time such
director is elected and duly qualified, be granted automatically, without action
by the Committee, an Option to purchase (i) for Options granted prior to July
23, 1996, 1,500 shares of Stock and (ii) for Options granted on or after July
23, 1996, 4,500 shares of stock.

               (c) Grants to Continuing Directors.  On the date of each annual
meeting of stockholders (in addition to any grant made under subsection (b) of
this Section on such date), each continuing Non-Employee Director will be
granted automatically, without action by the Committee, an Option to purchase
(i) for Options granted prior to July 23, 1996, 1,500 shares of Stock and (ii)
for Options granted on or after July 23, 1996, 4,500 shares of stock.

               (d) Vesting.  Each Option shall be exercisable as to 33-1/3
percent of the Stock covered by the Option on the first anniversary of the date
the Option is granted and as to an additional 33-1/3 percent of the Stock
covered by the Option on each of the following two anniversaries of such date of
grant; provided, however, that each Option shall be immediately exercisable in
full upon a Change in Control.  To the extent not exercised, installments shall
accumulate and be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time after becoming
exercisable, but not later than the date the Option expires.  Section 6(b)
hereof shall not apply to Options granted to Non-Employee Directors.

               (e) Duration.  Subject to the three clauses below, each Option
granted to a Non-Employee Director shall be for a term of 10 years. The
Committee may not provide for an extended exercise period beyond the periods set
forth in this Section 8(e).

                    (i) Options granted to any Non-Employee Director prior to
April 11, 2002 shall expire upon the cessation of such Non-Employee Director's
membership on the Board for any reason, except that, as to any portion of such
an Option which shall be exercisable upon the date of such cessation, such
Option may be exercised as to such portion until the earlier of (i) three years
from the date of such cessation of Board membership or (ii) expiration of the
term of such Option.

                    (ii) Except as set forth in Section 8(e)(iii) below, Options
granted to any Non-Employee Director on or after April 11, 2002 shall expire
upon the cessation of such Non-Employee Director's membership on the Board for
any reason, except that, as to any portion of such an Option which shall be
exercisable upon the date of such cessation, such Option may be exercised as to
such portion until the earlier of (i) one year from the date of such cessation
of Board membership or (ii) expiration of the term of such Option.

                    (iii) Upon the cessation of a Non-Employee Director's
membership on the Board as a result of the Non-Employee Director's death or
disability or if such cessation occurs after the Non-Employee Director has
served on the Board for five years or more, Options granted to such Non-Employee
Director on or after April 11, 2002 and at least eight months prior to such
cessation shall be exercisable by such director (or by any person who acquires
the right to exercise such option as a result of such director's death) until
the earlier of (i) five years from the date of such cessation of Board
membership (subject to the installment vesting provisions of Section 8(d) above)
or (ii) expiration of the term of such Option, to the extent of the total number
of shares subject to the grant.

9.     Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock.  Notwithstanding any of the other
provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 9 shall
apply only to grants of Restricted Stock to Non-Employee Directors ("Director's
Restricted Stock").  Except as set forth in this Section 9, the other provisions
of the Plan shall apply to grants of Director's Restricted Stock, to the extent
not inconsistent with this Section.

               (a) General.  Non-Employee Directors will receive Director's
Restricted Stock in accordance with this Section.  No agreement with any
Non-Employee Director may alter the provisions of this Section and no Director's
Restricted Stock may be subject to a discretionary acceleration of vesting. 
Each person who was a Non-Employee Director prior to the 1994 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders was granted 2,500 shares of Director’s Restricted Stock (equivalent
to 7,500 shares on or after July 23, 1996).

               (b) Grants to New Non-Employee Directors.  Each  Non-Employee
Director who, on or after the 1994 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, is elected to
the Board for the first time, will, at the time such Director is duly elected
and qualified, be granted automatically, without action by the Committee, a
number of shares of Director's Restricted Stock equal to the lesser of (i) 2,500
shares (7,500 shares on or after July 23, 1996) or (ii) the nearest number of
whole shares determined by multiplying 2,500 (7,500 on or after July 23, 1996)
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the initial Fair Market Value of the
Stock determined under the formula utilized for initial grants of NQSQs to
Non-Employee Directors in February 1994 (such initial Fair Market Value being
$15.375 per share or, on or after July 23, 1996, $5.125 per share), and the
denominator of which is the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date on which
such Director is duly elected and qualified.

               (c) Vesting.  (i) Each Award of Director's Restricted Stock shall
become non-forfeitable as to twenty percent of the Stock covered by the Award on
the first anniversary date of the Award and as to an additional twenty percent
of the Stock on each of the following four anniversary dates of the Award;
provided that each Award shall be immediately non-forfeitable in full upon a
Change in Control.  If a Non-Employee Director's service on the Board terminates
prior to the Award becoming entirely non-forfeitable, any portion of the Award
which then remains forfeitable shall revert to the Company, except that if the
Non-Employee Director's service terminates by reason of death or disability, any
20 percent installment with respect to which such Non-Employee Director shall
have begun (but not completed) the requisite annual service shall become, as to
such installment, also entirely nonforfeitable.  As used in the prior sentence,
a "disability" shall exist if, because of sickness or injury, the ability of the
Non-Employee Director to perform the duties of a member of the Board of
Directors becomes significantly impaired.

                    (ii)  A Non-Employee Director may, on or prior to December
31, 1995 (or in the case of a Non-Employee Director who first becomes a Director
after December 31, 1995, within thirty days after becoming a Director), as to
his forfeitable shares of Director's Restricted Stock elect that such shares
shall become nonforfeitable on January 1 following the year in which he attains
his 70th birthday, but not earlier than the date upon which such shares become
nonforfeitable under subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (c) or later than the
date of a Change in Control.  During such additional period, if any, that such
shares are forfeitable under this subparagraph (ii), the shares shall be
forfeited if such Non-Employee Director resigns from the Board of Directors or
refuses to stand for re-election to the Board of Directors, unless:

               A.  Such resignation or refusal results from the disability (as
defined in subparagraph (i) above) or death of the Non-Employee Director; or

               B.  Such Non-Employee Director furnishes to the Board of
Directors an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to a majority of the
remaining members, to the effect that continued membership on the Board will
result in such Non-Employee Director having a conflict of interest or suffering
some other significant legal liability; or

               C.  Such resignation or refusal is approved or requested by a
majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors or by stockholders
owning a majority of the voting stock of the Company.

During such additional period, if any, that such shares are forfeitable under
this subparagraph (ii), if there occurs an event described in clause A., B. or
C. of this subparagraph, the shares shall become nonforfeitable on the date that
the Non-Employee Director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors.

Any such election to defer vesting shall be made in writing addressed to the
Secretary of the Committee, and shall be irrevocable when received.

               (d) Dividends; Voting.  Except as set forth in this Section 9, a
Director granted Director's Restricted Stock shall have all of the rights of a
stockholder including, without limitation, the right to vote Restricted Stock
and the right to receive dividends thereon.

               (e) The Director's Restricted Stock shall be subject to the
following provisions prior to becoming non-forfeitable:

                    (i) The Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of; and neither the right to receive
Stock nor any interest therein under the Plan may be assigned, and any attempted
assignment shall be void.

                    (ii) The Stock certificates shall, at the option of the
Company, either (x) be held by the Company together with stock powers endorsed
by the Director in blank or (y) bear an appropriate restrictive legend and be
subject to appropriate "stop transfer" orders or (z) both.

                    (iii) Any additional Stock or other securities or property
(other than cash dividends) that may be issued with respect to Director's Stock
as a result of any stock dividend, stock split, reorganization,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, combination of shares or
other event, shall be subject to the restrictions and other terms and conditions
of the Plan.

10.     General Provisions.

               (a) Compliance with Local and Exchange Requirements.  The Plan,
the granting and exercising of Awards, and the other obligations of the Company
under the Plan and any Award Agreement, promissory note or other agreement shall
be subject to all applicable federal, state and foreign laws, rules and
regulations, and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as
may be required.  The Company, in its discretion, may postpone the issuance or
delivery of Stock under any Award until completion of such stock exchange
listing or registration or qualification of such Stock or other required action
under any state, federal or foreign law, rule or regulation as the Company may
consider appropriate, and may require any Grantee to make such representations
and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with
the issuance or delivery of Stock in compliance with applicable laws, rules and
regulations.

               (b) Nontransferability.  Except as may be specifically provided
to the contrary in any Award Agreement, Awards shall not be transferable by a
Grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order as defined under the Code or Title I of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the rules
thereunder, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of a Grantee only by
such Grantee or his guardian or legal representative.

               (c) No Right to Continued Employment, etc..  Nothing in the Plan
or in any Award granted or any Award Agreement, or other agreement entered into
pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Grantee the right to continue in the
employ of or to continue as an independent contractor, or director of the
Company, any subsidiary or any Affiliate or to be entitled to any remuneration
or benefits not set forth in the Plan or such Award Agreement, or other
agreement or to interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or
any such Subsidiary or Affiliate or the stockholders to terminate such Grantee's
employment, directorship or independent contractor relationship.

               (d) Taxes.  The Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate is
authorized to withhold from any Award granted, any payment relating to an Award
under the Plan, including from a distribution of Stock, or any other payment to
a Grantee, amounts of withholding and other taxes due in connection with any
transaction involving an Award, and to take such other actions as the Committee
may deem advisable to enable the Company and Grantees to satisfy obligations for
the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any
Award.  This authority shall include authority to withhold or receive Stock or
other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in satisfaction of a
Grantee's tax obligations.

               (e) Amendment and Termination of the Plan.  The Board may at any
time and from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole
or in part; provided that, without stockholder approval, no amendment shall be
made (i) to change Section 4 of the Plan which defines the persons eligible to
receive Awards, (ii) to increase the number of shares available for issuance
pursuant to the Plan (other than pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions set
forth in Section 5 of the Plan), (iii) to increase the number of shares issuable
under Sections 6(d), 6(e), 6(f) and 6(i) of the Plan, (iv) to change the
provisions limiting repricing of options in Section 6(b)(ii) of the Plan, (v) to
extend the 10 year maximum term of Options issued under the Plan set forth in
Section 6(b)(iii) of the Plan, (vi) to create additional kinds of awards under
the Plan not already contemplated by the Plan or (vii) to change this Section
10(e).  Additionally, no amendment shall affect adversely any of the rights of
any Grantee, without such Grantee's consent, under any Award theretofore granted
under the Plan.  Nothing in this Section 10(e) shall limit the provisions of
Section 10(i) of the Plan.

               (f) No Rights to Awards; No Stockholder Rights.  No Grantee shall
have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no
obligation for uniformity of treatment of Grantees.  Except as provided
specifically herein, a Grantee or a transferee of an Award shall have no rights
as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Award until the date
of the issuance of a stock certificate to him for such shares.

               (g) Unfunded Status of Awards.  The Plan is intended to
constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation.  With
respect to any payments not yet made to a Grantee pursuant to an Award, nothing
contained in the Plan or any Award shall give any such Grantee any rights that
are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

               (h) No Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Stock shall be
issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award.  The Committee shall
determine whether cash, other Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid
in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any
rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

               (i) Not Exclusive.  The Awards granted under this Plan are not
intended to be exclusive and, accordingly, the Board may adopt, or permit the
adoption of, other compensation and/or benefit plans or arrangements of any type
whatsoever, including but not limited to plans or arrangements that provide for
compensation in the same form as, or in form similar or dissimilar to, types of
compensation available under this Plan.

               (j) Governing Law.  The Plan and all determinations made and
actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

               (k) Effective Date; Plan Termination.  The Plan has been approved
by stockholders.  Amendments to the Plan effected at the January 21, 2003
meeting of the Board  shall take effect upon their adoption by the Board (the
"Effective Date"), but the amendments to this Plan (and any Awards made on or
after such date and prior to the stockholder approval mentioned herein), shall
be subject to the approval of such  amendments by a majority of the votes cast
on the proposal seeking such approval, provided that the total vote cast on the
proposal represents over 50% in interest of all securities entitled to vote on
the proposal, which approval must occur within twelve months of the Effective
Date; provided that Awards which could have been made under the Plan as
previously in effect shall not be affected by the lack of stockholder approval
of the amendments.  In the absence of such approval, except as so provided
above, such Awards shall be null and void.
