      meet organizational requirements is a part of doing business. This Plan is
      intended to provide fair and equitable treatment to minimize the impact of
      the
      move on employees and their families.

     

    We
      believe that maintaining a program of high quality, communicating relocation
      benefits clearly and consistently, and encouraging and providing counseling,
      benefits the AT&T companies by allowing employees to regain maximum
      productivity in the shortest possible time. This plan contains very specific
      plan components. No substitutions or alterations of the benefits will be
      allowed.

     

    We
      further believe that as employees of AT&T or its Participating Subsidiaries,
      relocating managers have a responsibility to utilize company funds in a manner
      consistent with the Code ofBusiness Conduct,
      which clearly states:

     

    “When
      spending company money or
      personal money that will be reimbursed, the employee involved should make sure
      his or her company receives proper value in return.”

     

    Employees
      found in violation of the Code of Business Conduct will be subject to
      disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.

     

    The
      cost and structure of this plan have been developed with specific components
      which are not intended to be substituted, altered or modified in any
      way.

                a large
                metropolitan area. Employee preferences for brokerage companies will

                considered.

    Appraisal
      / Valuation Process

     

    It
      is
      important that you understand that AT&T is not in the real estate business.
      We have no interest in purchasing the homes of our employees or re-selling
      them.
      Our goal is to provide an alternative for employees who cannot sell their homes
      in a reasonable period of time. Therefore, the appraisers are asked to
      objectively evaluate your home in order to estimate the most-probable selling
      price after reasonable market exposure (see Section 2, Pg. 3). This definition
      of value differs from a bank or mortgage appraisal, and may also differ from
      what a specific buyer might be willing to pay for your home when it is first
      exposed to the market. The primary intent of the home sale program is to
      help you locate a buyer. If that is not possible, AT&T provides the
      Guaranteed Value Offer to purchase your home at a price that should enable
      us to
      resell it within a reasonable amount of time.

     

    


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Altair
      Global Relocation shall arrange for establishment of a Guaranteed Value based
      on
      the “most probable selling price,” in “as is” condition, which is the base value
      guaranteed to the employee should he/she fail to obtain a buyer for the
      property.

     

    The
      most
      probable selling price is defined as:

     

    The
      price
      at which a property would most probably sell if exposed to the market for a
      reasonable period of time in “as is” condition, where payment is made in cash or
      its equivalent.  For purposes of establishing value, “as is” condition
      is defined as the cosmetic condition of the property at the time of
      appraisal.

     

    NOTE:
      Exposure to the market for a reasonable period of time is defined as up to
      one
      hundred twenty (120) days.

     

    The
      Guaranteed Value will be determined as follows:

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              The
                average of two (2) independent appraisals will be the Guaranteed
                Value,
                provided the difference between the two (2) appraisal values does
                not
                exceed five (5) percent of the highest
                value.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              In
                cases where the difference between the two appraisal values exceeds
                five
                (5) percent, a third (3rd) appraisal will be ordered.  In this
                case, the Guaranteed Value will be the average of the two (2) highest
                appraisals.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              The
                Guaranteed Value is contingent upon the results of any customary
                and
                required inspections. Please Note: Altair Global Relocation has a
                legal
                responsibility to disclose any defects or subsequent bids for repair
                discovered as a result of all inspections. Repairs identified by
                subsequent buyer inspections must also be
                disclosed.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Repairs
                identified through any inspections are the responsibility of the
                employee. Repairs must be completed before
                equity is released or the cost of repairs may be deducted from the
                employee’s final equity.  Repairs are subject to
                reinspection.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Should
                problems be identified through subsequent inspections by potential
                buyers,
                the employee will be required to perform additional
                repairs.

            


    

     

    In
      the
      process of appraising the employee’s home the appraisers will review comparable
      sales selected from the multiple listing or similar directory. Employees are
      encouraged to provide appraisers with a list of recent comparable
      sales.

     

    
      	
               

            	
              NOTE:

            	
              For
                comparison purposes only, two Broker Market Analyses (BMAs) are routinely
                ordered by Altair Global
                Relocation.

            


    

     

     

    Homeowner
      Disclosure Statement

     

    This
      Plan
      requires the use of a Homeowner Disclosure Statement as part of the marketing
      process.  Most states currently make the seller liable for not
      disclosing any material defect known to the seller but not obvious to the buyer.
      It is essential for the employee, as seller, to disclose all such
      defects in or on the property, whether the buyer is Altair Global
      Relocation or a private individual. Employees will be held responsible for
      such
      defects whether or not they are disclosed. 

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    Your
      Relocation Consultant will provide you with the appropriate Altair Global
      Relocation disclosure form.  Any disclosure forms required by state of
      locality will be supplied by your real estate agent.

     

    The
      Homeowner’s Disclosure Statement is designed to:

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Assure
                that the appraisers do not overlook a defective condition or
                system.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Provide
                justification to conduct further investigation or order a detailed
                inspection.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Serve
                as a medium for ordering repairs or disclosing defects to potential
                buyers.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Comply
                with all known and pending legal requirements for disclosure by the
                seller
                to the buyer.

            


    

     

    
      	
              NOTE:

            	
              Release
                of a check for advance distribution of equity will be contingent
                upon the
                receipt of a signed Homeowner’s Disclosure
                Statement.

            


    

     

    ANY
      EMPLOYEE WHO MAKES FRAUDULENT REPRESENTATIONS AND/OR ACTIONS WILL BE SUBJECT
      TO
      DISCIPLINARY ACTION UP TO AND INCLUDING TERMINATION OF
      EMPLOYMENT.

     

     

    Listing
      Agreement Exclusion Clause

     

    When
      an
      employee lists with a broker, a “Listing Exclusion Clause” must be
      signed to avoid payment of a broker’s commission and allow cancellation
      of a listing agreement should the employee accept the Guaranteed
      Value.

     

    The
      listing agreement must include the following provisions:

     

    “This
      listing agreement is subject to the following provisions. It is understood
      and
      agreed regardless of whether or not an offer is presented by a ready, willing
      and able Buyer(s):

     

    No
      commission or compensation shall be earned, or be due and payable to Broker
      until the sale of the property has been consummated between Seller(s) and
      Buyer(s), the Deed delivered to the Buyer(s) and the purchase price delivered
      to
      the Seller(s); and

     

    The
      Seller(s) reserve the right to sell the Property to Altair Global Relocation,
      or
      any other person(s) designated by Altair Global Relocation, (individually and
      collectively a “Named Prospective Purchaser”) at any time.  Upon the
      execution by a Named Prospective Purchaser and me/us of an Agreement of Sale
      with respect to the Property, this listing shall immediately terminate without
      obligation on my/our part or on the part of any Named Prospective Purchaser
      to
      either pay a commission or to continue this listing agreement.”

     

     

    Home
      Sale Options

     

    There
      are
      three (3) home sale options available to employees. They are:

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    
      	
              Option
                1:

            	
              Amended
                Value Sale (Please refer to the Contract of Sale for terms and conditions
                of Amended Value Sale).

            


    

     

    An
      Amended Value Sale occurs when the employee works with the Relocation Consultant
      and real estate agent to sell the residence to a qualified buyer under the
      Amended Value Sale provision of this Plan.

     

    Offer
      Period: The employee will have a period of one hundred twenty (120)
      days from the date of the Guaranteed Value Offer letter to market the property.
      The first sixty (60) days is mandatory.  The employee is responsible
      for all taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance, principle and interest on
      the
      mortgage during the marketing period until amended value close or vacate date,
      whichever is later.

     

    If
      a bona
      fide offer is secured on the home from a buyer, Altair Global Relocation will
      process the contract under the Amended Value Sale process.

     

    The
      employee is required to notify the Relocation Consultant of all offers received
      on his/her home.

     

    IRS
      rulings are very strict about benefits received under this process. Therefore,
      in order to receive the tax advantages an Amended Value process provides, and
      receive the bonus, certain procedures MUST be followed. They
      are:

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Should
                the real estate agent present an offer to you, DO NOT VERBALLY
                ACCEPT. DO NOT TAKE ANY MONEY FROM THE BROKER OR PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER,
                OR
                SIGN ANY DOCUMENT WHICH WOULD CONSTITUTE
                ACCEPTANCE.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Call
                your Relocation Consultant as soon as possible and provide him/her
                with
                the details of the offer. The Relocation Consultant will promptly
                negotiate with the real estate agent and verify if the offer made
                is bona
                fide.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              The
                Relocation Consultant will request the employee to execute the Altair
                Global Relocation Contract of Sale and return it to Altair Global
                Relocation.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Upon
                receipt of the Sale Contract, Altair Global Relocation will review
                the
                Contract to verify all terms and conditions are in the employee’s best
                interest. Altair Global Relocation will sign the Sale Contract and
                return
                it to the buyers.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Altair
                Global Relocation will process the Sale Contract, work through the
                inspection contingency, and verify the buyers are financially qualified
                to
                purchase the property. Altair Global Relocation will then execute
                the
                Contract of Sale with the employee at the net sale price of the Sale
                Contract (purchase price less all concessions which are the employee’s
                responsibility). This process takes approximately 2 - 3
                weeks.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Altair
                Global Relocation will enter into a listing agreement with the broker
                and
                prepare to accept possession upon employee vacating the
                premises.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
               Altair
                Global Relocation will close the sale with the
                buyer.

            


    

     

    Employee
      Responsibility: The employee will be responsible for payment of any
      negotiated closing costs typically paid by the Buyer, e.g., concessions made
      to
      the buyer for repairs, financing points, etc. Reimbursable
      Expenses are listed in Section 2, Page 8.

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    The
      employee has one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the Guaranteed
      Value
      Letter to present a bona fide contract.

     

    Proration
      Date/Equity Calculation: The employee will be responsible for
      insurance, taxes, utilities, maintenance, principle and interest on the
      mortgage, through the date Altair Global Relocation accepts the contract or
      the
      date the employee vacates the property, whichever is later.  Your
      final equity will be calculated based on whichever value is higher, your
      guaranteed value or your amended value.  It is the employee’s
      responsibility to collect any escrow balance from the mortgage
      company.

     

    Home
      Sale Bonus: A bonus will be awarded to an employee who, within the one
      hundred twenty (120) day offer period, obtains a private contract equal to
      or
      greater than 96% of the Guaranteed Value Offer. The bonus will be stated as
      2 (two)percent of the sale price, and the
      maximum bonus paid will be $25,000.

     

    If
      the
      contract is ninety-five (95) percent up to but not including ninety-six (96)
      percent of the Guaranteed Value, the employee will not receive a bonus but
      will
      receive the Guaranteed Value.

     

    The
      bonus
      is paid when the sale is amended.

     

    The
      cash bonus is considered fully taxable income, and is not grossed-up for tax
      purposes. Taxes will be withheld at the applicable Federal and State
      supplemental tax rates, and the applicable local tax rate. Social Security
      and
      Medicare tax rates will also be withheld at the applicable rates before issuing
      the bonus check.

     

    Advance
      of Equity: It is the intent of this Plan to allow for advance
      distribution of home equity to the employee prior to electing Option 1 or 2
      when the equity is required to guarantee a contract on a home in the
      new
      location. Prior to any advancement of equity, you must forward a copy
      of your destination purchase agreement to your Relocation
      Consultant.

     

    The
      following guidelines are applicable:

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              The
                advance is up to ninety-five (95) percent of the equity as determined
                by
                the Guaranteed Value. Additionally, charges for interest, taxes and
                insurance will be pro-rated from the date of your last mortgage payment
                through your anticipated acceptance date. It is the employee’s
                responsibility to collect any escrow balance from the mortgage
                company.

              Pay
                back the equity advance in full

            


    

     

    The
      employee is required to leave the property in clean and livable
      condition.  Any charges for hauling or excessive clean up will be
      charged to the employee.

    The
      employee must notify his/her Relocation Consultant at Altair Global Relocation

              Option
                2:

            	
              Guaranteed
                Value Sale (Please refer to the Contract of Sale for terms and conditions
                of the Guaranteed Value
                Sale).

            


    

     

    A
      Guaranteed Value Sale occurs when the employee works with the Relocation
      Consultant and real estate agent to sell the residence but is unable to secure
      a
      contract and accepts the Guaranteed Value Offer.

     

    Offer
      Period: The employee will have a period of one hundred twenty (120)
      days from the date of the Guaranteed Value Offer Letter to market their
      property. Sixty (60) days of that time period is mandatory. During that time
      the
      employee is responsible for all taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance,
      principle and interest on the mortgage until sale of the property to Altair
      Global Relocation or vacate date, whichever is later.

     

    The
      employee is required to notify the Relocation Consultant of all offers received
      on his/her home.

     

    Acceptance
      of Guaranteed Offer: After the employee has satisfied the mandatory
      sixty (60) day marketing eligibility requirement, or is at the end of the one
      hundred twenty (120) day marketing period, he/she may accept the Guaranteed
      Value Offer. Failure to act (i.e., forward the appropriate documents
      contained in the Offer Package, as directed) by the end of this one hundred
      twenty (120) day period will result in an automatic expiration of the Guaranteed
      Value.

     

    Proration
      Date: The employee will be responsible for insurance, taxes, utilities,
      maintenance, principle and interest on the mortgage through the date of
      acceptance of the Guaranteed Value or the date the property is vacated,
      whichever is later. These items will be deducted from the equity and the
      employee will be credited for any escrow balance.

     

    Possession
      Period: The employee will be given thirty (30) days from acceptance to
      vacate the property.

     

    Items
      Included in the Purchase Price: Altair Global Relocation’s purchase
      price includes, but is not limited to, all fixtures, appurtenances, and built-in
      items usually considered to be part of residential properties such as blinds,
      window shades, awnings, window screens, storm and sash screens, storm or
      combination doors, curtain and drapery fixtures, electric and lighting fixtures,
      yard lights, fixed gas barbecue grills, T. V. antennas, electric garage door

              Option
                3:

            	
              Unassisted
                Sale

            


    

     

    The
      employee chooses to sell the property without benefit of company assistance
      and
      is reimbursed for customary closing costs.

     

    This
      option provides for the reimbursement of certain expenses involved in the sale
      of a residence when an employee lists, sells and closes a contract independent
      of Altair Global Relocation. The employee may choose this option for personal
      reasons or as a result of owning property which does not qualify for other
      options outlined in this Plan (e.g., a mobile home with land, a cooperative
      or a
      house with hazardous substances). The employee will be reimbursed for most
      normal and customary closing costs associated with this sale. The home, however,
      must be sold and reimbursable expenses incurred within one (1) year following
      the effective date of the relocation.

     

    The
      amount of reimbursement of customary closing costs is fully taxable income
      and
      is not grossed up for tax purposes. Taxes will be withheld at the applicable
      Federal and State supplemental tax rates and the applicable local tax rate.
      Social Security and Medicare will also be withheld at the applicable rates
      before issuing the check.

                on
                the property being sold. If this is required, the employee is eligible
                for
                reimbursement.

                will be the employee’s primary place of residence, the lump sum will not
                include pre-move house hunting. Interim living, provisions will be
                adjusted accordingly.

            


    

     

     

    Tax
      Implications

     

    The
      lump
      sum allowance is fully taxable and subject to gross-up tax
      assistance.  See Section 11.

     

    Documentation
      of actual expenses incurred and covered by the lump sum allowance is not a
      requirement; however, it is recommended that the employee keep accurate records
      throughout the relocation for income tax purposes.

     

     

    Day(s)
      of Move

     

    This
      Plan
      provides for reimbursement of actual expenses for transportation cost only
      to
      destination location for employee and relocating dependents during
      day(s)-of-move (receipts required).

     

    AT&T
      will pay for transporting a total of two (2) automobiles per household, if
      they
      are operational and have a current registration.  Employee may drive
      one (1) or both vehicles to the new residence and be reimbursed mileage at
      the
      current authorized rate. (See Transporting Your Automobiles, Section 10, Page
      2.)

     

    
      	
              NOTE:

            	
              AT&T
                will not reimburse
                employee for frequent flyer miles, other travel coupons and/or incentives
                used for day-of-move travel.

            


    

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Tax
      Implications

     

    A
      portion
      of reimbursed mileage is excluded from compensation, and a portion is considered
      taxable compensation under current IRS guidelines. The amount included in
      compensation is subject to gross-up tax assistance. (See Section
      11.)

     

     

    Trailing
      Spouse

     

    If
      an
      employee has a spouse who is also a company employee, that “trailing spouse” is
      eligible for meals for the number of days actually spent in temporary quarters
      at the new location within the corresponding interim living period of the
      primary relocating employee. This does not include weekends. These expenses
      will
      be reimbursed at the end of the move (receipts required).

     

    NOTE:  Unless
      otherwise specified, it is assumed that the organization of the primary
      relocating employee will bear the expenses of the trailing spouse.

     

     

    Tax
      Implications

     

    Interim
      living expenses reimbursed to the trailing spouse are fully taxable and subject
      to gross-up tax assistance. (See Section 11.)

    In
      the event that the transferred employee and the trailing spouse are both
      employed by AT&T or a subsidiary thereof, and both the employees are
      transferred simultaneously, the allowance will be calculated on the higher
      base
      salary.

     

    
      	
              NOTE:

            	
              The
                employee should keep a record of all money spent for expenses in
                the above
                since some of these expenses may be deductible on the employee’s tax
                return together with other expenses defined as deductible. Employee
                should
                consult IRS Publication 521, Moving
                Expenses.

            


    

     

    Tax
      Implications

     

    The
      miscellaneous moving allowance is considered taxable compensation, and is not
      eligible for gross-up tax assistance. Taxes will be withheld at the applicable
      Federal and State supplemental rates and the applicable local tax rate. Social
      Security and Medicare taxes will also be withheld at the applicable rates before
      issuing the check.

    Upon
      selection of a carrier, the Relocation Consultant will prepare a Purchase Order
      and forward a copy to the carrier.

     

    Packing
      and loading dates should be arranged between the employee and the mover with
      every attempt made to provide these services on the dates requested. However,
      keep in mind that Altair Global Relocation cannot authorize the additional
      cost
      of weekend or holiday service.

     

    Employees
      must be at the old residence when the movers arrive to pack and at the new
      home
      when goods are delivered. Insurance will be provided on a replacement value
      basis, subject to limitations (see Insurance on Shipment of Household Goods
      in
      this section).

     

    Should
      goods be lost or damaged, documents of ownership and the value of the specific
      items claimed will be required (please refer to Insurance on Shipment of
      Household Goods for details regarding insurance and claims).

     

    Moving
      costs are paid directly to the mover.

     

     

    Storage

     

    This
      Plan
      allows payment for a maximum of sixty (60) days of storage in a warehouse
      facility provided by the mover (climate control storage is not
      included).  No exceptions will be made for employees who choose to
      build in the new location.  Temporary storage of household goods to

    employee
      elects to store longer than sixty (60) days, at his/her expense, insurance
      coverage will continue until household goods are delivered out.

     

    NOTE:                      Motorized
      vehicles and boats are not authorized for storage.

     

     

    Delivery
      of Household Goods

     

    Upon
      delivery of goods to the new residence, all items should be closely inspected
      for damage and loss. The number and condition of items should coincide with
      the
      inventory sheet prepared at origin. Note all discrepancies on the driver’s and
      employee’s inventory sheets, such as “missing”, “broken”, “scratched”, etc., and
      have the van line representative sign employee’s copy.

     

    If
      loss
      or damage does occur, please refer to Insurance on Shipment of Household Goods
      in this section for claim handling procedures.

     

    When
      unloading and unpacking is completed, the driver will ask the employee to sign
      the bill of lading and inventory sheets to certify receipt of services,
      including any unpacking.  At this time, any damage or loss to goods
      should be noted. If certain services were not performed by the carrier, make
      a
      specific notation in the appropriate column on the bill of lading and request
      the driver to verify by signing.

     

    It
      is
      recommended that all containers which the carrier did not unpack be inspected
      within forty eight (48) hours and checked for concealed damage.

     

    Tax
      Implications

     

    In
      accordance with current IRS regulations, the amount paid by the Company to
      or on
      behalf of the employee associated with the movement of household goods and
      storage of household goods up to 30 days is excludable from income and not
      reportable on Form W-2.  Therefore, no gross-up is necessary for these
      expenses.  Storage of household goods in excess of 30 days up to 60
      days is taxable compensation to the employee and is eligible for gross-up tax
      assistance.  See Section 11.

     

     

    Transporting
      Your Automobiles

     

    AT&T
      will pay for transporting a total of two (2) automobiles per household, if
      they
      are operational and have a current registration.  Employee may drive
      one (1) or both vehicles to the new residence and be reimbursed mileage at
      the
      current Company authorized
      rate. (See
      Day(s) of Move, Section 7, Page 1.)

     

    
      	
              NOTE:

            	
              One
                (1) car may be pre-shipped, on an overflow basis, separate from your
                household goods.

    Insurance
      for Shipment of Household Goods

     

    Transported
      property is insured at replacement value against loss and/or damage from any
      external cause, including strikes, riots and civil commotions.

     

    Only
      those items which are packed and/or stored by the moving company are covered
      by
      insurance.

     

    Employees
      are automatically insured against all physical loss or damage for replacement
      value of up to $150,000.00 while the items are in transit or storage, subject
      to
      limitations. In the event the value of an employee’s personal effects
      exceeds $150,000, the employee should make their own arrangements for extra
      insurance coverage using their miscellaneous moving
      allowance.

     

    If
      you
      have personal insurance, check with your insurance agent for additional
      insurance of your personal property while it is being moved. It is prudent
      to
      keep this coverage in force throughout your move, until you have obtained
      permanent insurance at your new location. Employees should consider purchasing
      insurance for their antiques, other collectibles and/or collections, as they
      are
      not covered under this Plan.

                shipping point of the common carrier and vice
                versa.

            


    

     

    Employees
      should determine that they have adequate insurance to cover the above items
      to
      the extent not covered by company-provided insurance, as well as coverage for
      items moved in the employee’s personal car. Such coverage may or may not be
      provided for in a homeowner’s-type policy. Employee should contact his/her
      insurance agent to be certain.

     

    The
      employee is expected to be present during the loading of household goods to
      make
      sure possessions are fully inventoried.  Articles left in drawers
      cannot be counted in the inventory.

     

    When
      goods arrive at the new home, inspect them and note any exceptions on the
      carrier’s copy of the bill of lading or inventory.

     

    
      	
              NOTE:

            	
              Be
                certain that important or valuable papers or documents of any kind,
                stamp
                collections, monies, jewelry or valuable furs are not
                included in the shipment by van. This is extremely important because
                neither the mover, the insurance company, nor AT&T will accept
                liability for these items.

            


    

     

    AT&T
      contracts with an independent firm for the processing of insurance claims
      related to damage incurred to personal property during the movement of
      employee’s household goods and personal belongings.

     

    Employees
      should contact the Relocation Consultant for assistance in initiating a claim.
      Claims for insurance must be filed with UNIRISC within six months
      of
      delivery to final residence. Claim forms are available on the AT&T
      intranet.

     

    Should
      it
      become necessary to file a claim for loss or damage, inspect all items, noting
      the damage and/or loss on the carrier’s copy of the bill of lading and add to
      the notation, “Subject to Further Inspection.” Make sure the driver signs the
      bill of lading. Employees must keep a copy of the bill of lading and inventory
      sheets. Information from these documents is required to process the
      claim.

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      	
              NOTE

            	
              It
                is the employee’s responsibility to establish proof of ownership and value
                to the carrier in case of loss or damage. The costs associated with
                this,
                such as obtaining appraisals of antiques or works of art, are covered
                by
                the Miscellaneous Moving Allowance. Appraisals obtained by the employee
                for insurance purposes may be
                sufficient.

        Aspects of
        Relocation

    

     

    Introduction

     

    This
      section addresses the tax consequences of a company-initiated relocation and
      defines the tax “gross-up” method.

     

    Tax
      Implications Overview

     

    Most
      reimbursements for relocation expenses, whether paid to the employee as a direct
      reimbursement or paid to another on his/her behalf, are earned taxable income
      to
      the employee.  An exception to this rule is that certain
      reimbursements are excluded from income as follows:

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Reimbursements
                related to the shipment of household goods and the first thirty (30)
                days
                of storage.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Reimbursements
                related to travel and lodging at the time of the
                move.

            


    

     

    Tax
      Gross-Up Method

     

    Under
      the
      gross-up method, an allowance is computed according to established guidelines
      to
      cover the anticipated tax on reimbursements (and the subsequent tax on tax
      reimbursement). Payment of this allowance will be made directly to the Federal,
      State, and local Governments (where applicable) on behalf of the employee.
      The
      Company has determined that the gross-up will be calculated using the applicable
      Federal and State supplemental tax rates, and the applicable local tax
      rate.  Social Security and Medicare tax rates will also be
      utilized.

     

    The
      termination or resignation of a relocated employee in the same year that
      relocation benefits were allowed does not eliminate the tax obligation by the
      employee’s company. Gross-up payments will be made regardless.

     

    Employee
      Responsibility

     

    Gross-up
      tax assistance calculated on behalf of each employee is designed to meet the
      withholding obligation of the applicable taxing authority. The gross-up tax
      assistance calculated is not meant to meet all tax obligations of the
      employee.

     

    In
      the
      event the gross-up tax assistance does not cover an employee’s tax liability,
      the employee is responsible for any additional tax. The gross-up tax assistance
      is not subject to appeal by the employee.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    Altair
      Global Relocation Responsibility

     

    When
      form
      W-2 Wage and Tax Statement is issued, the payroll office or Altair Global
      Relocation will provide the employee with a Summary of Relocation Expenses
      for
      the year.

     

    
      	
              NOTE:

            	
              Because
                of the complexities of income tax laws, Altair Global Relocation,
                AT&T, etc., will not assume responsibility or become involved with
                regard to the employee’s income tax reporting, filing or calculation. It
                is, therefore, recommended that employee(s) seek professional advice
                and
                assistance in this matter; however, charges for such assistance are
                not
                reimbursable.

    RELOCATION
      REPAYMENT REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT

     

    I,
      _________________________, have accepted a position with
      ___________________(name of company or subsidiary “Company”) which involves
      relocation, and may result in payment by Company of costs and tax allowances
      to
      me or to third parties on my behalf, under the terms of the AT&T Relocation
      Plan (the “Plan”). These costs may include, but are not limited to, service fees
      paid to the vendor for administration of the terms of the plan, household moving
      expenses, appraisal fees, etc., (“Relocation Expenses”). The Company or my
      relocation assistance vendor will provide me with a statement detailing all
      Relocation Expenses within a reasonable time after such expenses have been
      fully
      identified.

     

    In
      consideration of Company incurring such Relocation Expenses, I agree to repay
      Company such Relocation Expenses in full in the event that I cancel my
      acceptance of the job cited above and do not report to work in the new location,
      or if I decide not to work for the Company or sever my employment with the
      Company for any reason within my control within twelve (12) months from the date
      such Relocation Expenses were last incurred.

     

    To
      cover
      repayment of the Relocation Expenses, I authorize Company to deduct up to half
      of my final paycheck or any other monies Company owes to me, if any. If any
      such
      deduction is insufficient to cover repayment of the Relocation Expenses, I
      agree
      to repay the balance to Company within 30 days of the date I decide not to
      work
      for Company or terminate my employment with Company.

     

    I
      understand that I will be solely responsible for any tax consequences arising
      from any reimbursement I may be required to make to the Company as a result
      of
      this Agreement.

     

    This
      Agreement in no way constitutes or implies, nor shall it be construed as
      constituting or implying, any guarantee or contract of employment. I understand
      that my eligibility for relocation benefits is controlled by the terms of the
      Plan. This Agreement cannot be changed or modified except in writing, signed
      by
      me and an authorized representative of the Company. I understand that any oral
      or written representations about this subject which are not contained in this
      Agreement are no longer effective. I have entered into this Agreement freely,
      knowingly and voluntarily.

     

    I
      UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MY EXECUTION OF THIS RELOCATION EXPENSE
      REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT IS A CONDITION OF MY ELIGIBILITY FOR BENEFITS UNDER
      THE
      AT&T RELOCATION PLAN.

    Employee
      Assistance Counseling

     

     

    A
      major
      career move can be overwhelming in many ways. AT&T offers an Employee
      Assistance Program (EAP) to assist the employee and his/her family in managing
      this transition.

     

    The
      EAP
      counselors provide confidential, professional counseling to employees who may
      find themselves experiencing personal difficulties during or after the
      move.

     

    EAP
      counseling services include:

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Marital
                or family counseling.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Work-related
                concerns.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Interpersonal
                difficulties.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Personal
                growth and development issues.

            


    

     

    
      	
              §  

            	
              Alcohol
                or drug abuse.

            


    

     

    All
      records and activities are maintained in strict confidence in accordance with
      medical ethics and state laws. If an employee needs assistance, he/she should
      contact an EAP counselor directly at 1.800.554.6701.
