                         EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      Agreement dated as of January 22, 1996, between USAir, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation, having a place of business at Crystal Park
Four, 2345 Crystal Drive, Arlington, VA 22227 (the "Company") and
Stephen M. Wolf, residing at Rock Hill Farm, Route 702 at Route
709, The Plains, Virginia, 22171 (the "Executive").

                             WITNESSETH

      WHEREAS, the Executive has assumed duties of a responsible
nature to the benefit of the Company and to the satisfaction of its
Board of Directors (the "Board"); 

      WHEREAS, the Board believes it to be in the best interests of
the Company to enter into this Agreement to assure Executive's
continuing services to the Company including, but not limited to,
under circumstances in which there is a possible, threatened or
actual Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company; and

      WHEREAS, the Board believes it is imperative to diminish the
inevitable distraction of the Executive by virtue of the personal
uncertainties and risks created by a pending or threatened Change
of Control and to encourage the Executive's full attention and
dedication to the Company currently and in the event of any
threatened or pending Change of Control, and to provide the
Executive with compensation and benefits arrangements upon a Change
of Control which ensure that the compensation and benefits
expectations of the Executive will be satisfied and which are
competitive with those of other corporations.  Therefore, in order
to accomplish all the above objectives, the Board has caused the
Company to enter into this Agreement.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein
contained, the Company and the Executive hereby agree as follows:

      1.  Certain Definitions.

      (b) The "Change of Control Date" shall mean the first date
during the Employment Period (as defined in Section 1(c)) on which

this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Change of
Control occurs and if the Executive's employment with the Company
is terminated or the Executive ceases to be an officer of the
Company prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs,
and if it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that such
termination of employment or cessation of status as an officer (i) 


                                1
<PAGE>


was at the request of a third party who has taken steps reasonably
calculated to effect the Change of Control or (ii) otherwise arose
in connection with or anticipation of the Change of Control, then
for all purposes of this Agreement the "Change of Control Date"
shall mean the date immediately prior to the date of such
termination of employment or cessation of status as an officer.

      (c)  The "Employment Period" shall mean the period commencing
on the Effective Date and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) the
fourth anniversary of such date or (ii) the first day of the month

after the Effective Date, and on each annual anniversary of such
date (such date and each annual anniversary thereof shall be
hereinafter referred to as the "Renewal Date"), the Employment
Period shall be automatically extended so as to terminate on the
earlier of (x) four years from such Renewal Date or (y) the
Executive's Normal Retirement Date, unless at least 30 days prior
to the Renewal Date the Company shall give notice to the Executive
that the Employment Period shall not be so extended; and provided,
further, that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Date, the
Employment Period shall automatically be extended so as to

under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (i) the then
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company's parent, USAir
Group, Inc. ("Group") (the "Outstanding Group Common Stock") or
(ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of Group entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (the "Outstanding Group Voting Securities"); provided,
however, that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a
Change of Control: (w) any acquisition directly from Group, (x) any
acquisition by Group or any of its subsidiaries, (y) any
acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust)
sponsored or maintained by Group or any of its subsidiaries or (z)

proxies or consents; or 

      (c)  Approval by the shareholders of Group of a
reorganization, merger or consolidation, in each case, with respect
to which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities
who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding
Group Common Stock and Outstanding Group Voting Securities
immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation,
beneficially own, directly or indirectly, less than 85% of,
respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock and the
combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the

Outstanding Group Voting Securities, as the case may be; or

      (e)  The acquisition by an individual, entity or group of
beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the then outstanding
securities of Group, including both voting and non-voting
securities, provided, however, that such acquisition shall only
constitute a Change of Control in the event that such individual,
entity or group also obtains the power to elect by class vote,
cumulative voting or otherwise to appoint, 20% or more of the total
number of directors to the Board of Directors of Group.

      3.  Employment Period.  The Company hereby agrees to continue

      (iii)  During the Employment Period, and excluding any periods
of vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is entitled, the
Executive agrees to devote reasonable attention and time during
normal business hours to the business and affairs of the Company
and, to the extent necessary to discharge the responsibilities
assigned to the Executive hereunder, to use the Executive's
reasonable best efforts to perform faithfully and efficiently such
responsibilities.  During the Employment Period it shall not be a
violation of this Agreement for the Executive to (A) serve on
corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, (B) deliver
lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational
institutions and (C) manage personal investments, so long as such
activities do not significantly interfere with the performance of
the Executive's responsibilities as an employee of the Company in
accordance with this Agreement.  It is also expressly understood
and agreed that to the extent that such activities have been
conducted by the Executive prior to the Effective Date, the
continued conduct of such activities (or the conduct of activities
similar in nature and scope thereto) subsequent to the Effective
Date shall not thereafter be deemed to interfere with the
performance of the Executive's responsibilities to the Company.

      (b)  Compensation.

      (i)  Base Salary.  During the Employment Period, the Company
shall pay the Executive a base salary (x) for the first 12 months

base salary in effect on the last day of the preceding 12-month
period.  During the Employment Period, base salary shall be
reviewed at least annually and shall be increased at any time and
from time to time as shall be substantially consistent with
increases in base salary awarded in the ordinary course of business
to other key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries.  Any
increase in base salary shall not serve to limit or reduce any
other obligation to the Executive under this Agreement.  Base
salary shall not be reduced after any such increase.  Base salary
under Section 4(b)(i) shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Base
Salary".

      (ii)  Annual Bonus.  In addition to Base Salary, the Executive
shall be awarded, for each fiscal year during the Employment
Period, an annual bonus as shall be determined by the Board or its
Compensation and Benefits Committee in accordance with the
executive incentive compensation plan of Group approved on November
9, 1995 by the Group Board of Directors ("Incentive Plan") or
otherwise.  The Executive's target bonus opportunity under the

<PAGE>



Incentive Plan each year shall be no less than 50% of his Base
Salary (as in effect on the first day of the year) and his maximum
bonus opportunity each year shall be no less than 100% of such Base
Salary.  The annual bonus under Section 4(b)(ii) shall hereinafter
be referred to as the "Annual Bonus".

      (iii)  Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans.  In addition
to Base Salary and Annual Bonus payable as hereinabove provided,
the Employee shall be entitled to participate during the Employment
Period in all incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices,
policies and programs applicable on or after the Effective Date to

equivalent to those in effect on the Effective Date or as
subsequently amended.  

      (iv)  Welfare Benefit Plans.  During the Employment Period,
the Executive and/or the Executive's family, as the case may be,
shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all
benefits under welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and
programs provided by the Company and its subsidiaries (including,
without limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability,
salary continuance, employee life, group life, accidental death and
travel accident insurance plans and programs) applicable on or
after the Effective Date to other key employees of the Company and
its subsidiaries, in each case providing benefits which are the
economic equivalent to those in effect on the Effective Date or as
subsequently amended.  

      (v)  Expenses.  During the Employment Period, the Executive
shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all
reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in accordance with
the most favorable policies, practices and procedures of the

      (vii)  Office and Support Staff.  During the Employment
Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an appropriate office or
offices of a size and with furnishings and other appointments, and

      (viii)  Vacation.  During the Employment Period, the Executive
shall be entitled to paid vacation in accordance with the most
favorable plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company

with respect to other key employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries.

      5.    Termination.  

      (a)  Mutual Agreement.  During the Employment Period, the
Executive's employment hereunder may be terminated at any time by
mutual agreement on terms to be negotiated at the time of such
termination.  

      (b)  Death or Disability.  This Agreement shall terminate
automatically upon the Executive's death.  If the Company
determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has
occurred (pursuant to the definition of "Disability" set forth
below), it may give to the Executive written notice of its
intention to terminate the Executive's employment.  In such event,
the Executive's employment with the Company shall terminate
effective on the 90th day after receipt by the Executive of such
notice given at any time after a period of six consecutive months
of Disability and while such Disability is continuing (the
"Disability Effective Date"), provided that, within the 90 days
after such receipt, the Executive shall not have returned to full-
time performance of the Executive's duties.  For purposes of this
Agreement, "Disability" means disability which, at least six months
after its commencement, is determined to be total and permanent by
a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable
to the Executive or the Executive's legal representative (such
agreement as to acceptability not to be withheld unreasonably). 
During such six month period and until the Disability Effective
Date, Executive shall be entitled to all compensation provided for
under Section 4 hereof.

      (c)  Cause.  During the Employment Period, the Company may
terminate the Executive's employment for "Cause."  For purposes of
this Agreement, "Cause" means (i) an act or acts of personal
dishonesty taken by the Executive and intended to result in
substantial personal enrichment of the Executive at the expense of 


                                7
<PAGE>



the Company, (ii) repeated violations by the Executive of the
Executive's obligations under Section 4(a) of this Agreement which
are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the Executive's part and
which are not remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt
of written notice from the Company or (iii) the conviction of the
Executive of a felony.

      (d)  Good Reason.  During the Employment Period, the
Executive's employment hereunder may be terminated by the Executive
for Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason"
means:

      (i)  the assignment to the Executive of any duties
inconsistent in any respect with Executive's position (including
status, offices, titles and reporting relationships), authority,
duties or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 4(a)(i) or
(ii) of this Agreement, or any other action by the Company which
results in a diminution in such position, authority, duties or
responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated,
insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and
which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice
thereof given by the Executive;

      (ii)  the failure by Group to elect the Executive to the
position of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Group or any
other action by Group which results in the diminution of the
Executive's position, authority, duties, or responsibilities,
excluding an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not
taken in bad faith and which is remedied by Group promptly after
receipt of notice thereof is given by the Executive;

      (iii)  (x) any failure by the Company to comply with any of
the provisions of Section 4(b) of this Agreement, other than an
isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in
bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after
receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive or (y) after the
Change of Control Date, any failure of the Company to pay Base
Salary or Annual Bonus in accordance with Sections 4(b)(i) and
(ii), respectively, and any failure by the Company to maintain or
provide the plans, programs, policies and practices, and benefits
described in Sections 4(b)(iii) - (viii) on the most favorable
basis such plans programs, policies and practices were maintained
and benefits provided during the 90-day period immediately
preceding the Change of Control Date, or if more favorable to the
Executive and/or the Executive's family, as in effect at any time
thereafter with respect to other key employees of the Company and
its subsidiaries;


                               8
<PAGE>



      (iv) the Company's requiring the Executive to be based at any
office or location other than that described in Sections 4(a)(i)(B)
or 4(a)(ii)(B) hereof, except for travel reasonably required in the
performance of the Executive's responsibilities;

      (v) any purported termination by the Company of the
Executive's employment otherwise than as expressly permitted by
this Agreement; or

      (vi)  any failure by the Company to comply with and satisfy
Section 11(c) of this Agreement.
For purposes of this Section 5(d), any good faith determination of
"Good Reason" made by the Executive on or after the Change of
Control Date shall be conclusive.  Anything in this Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, a termination by the Executive for
any reason during the 30-day period immediately following the first
anniversary of the Change of Control Date shall be deemed to be a
termination for Good Reason for all purposes of this Agreement.

      (e)  Notice of Termination.  Any termination by the Company
for Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason shall be communicated
by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in
accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement.  For purposes of
this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" means a written notice
which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this
Agreement relied upon, (ii) sets forth in reasonable detail the
facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination
of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated and
(iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other that
the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date
(which date shall be not more than fifteen (15) days after the
giving of such notice).  The failure by the Executive to set forth
in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which
contributes to a showing of Good Reason shall not waive any right
of the Executive hereunder or preclude the Executive from asserting
such fact or circumstance in enforcing his rights hereunder.

      (f)  Date of Termination.  "Date of Termination" means the
date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date
specified therein, as the case may be; provided, however, that (i)
if the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company other
than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the
date on which the Company notifies the Executive of such
termination and (ii) if the Executive's employment is terminated by
reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the
date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as
the case may be.

any supplemental and/or excess retirement plan the Executive would
receive if he remained employed by the Company at the compensation
level provided for in Sections 4(b)(i) and (ii) of this Agreement
for the remainder of the Employment Period and (b) the actuarial
equivalent of this benefit, if any, under the Retirement Plan and
any supplemental and/or excess retirement plan.

      (ii)  The Company shall:

      A. for the remainder of the Employment Period or such longer
period as any plan, program, practice or policy may provide,
continue benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive's family at
least equal to those which would have been provided to them in
accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies
described in Sections 4(b)(iii)(with respect to any retirement
plans), (iv) and (vi) of this Agreement if the Executive's
employment had not been terminated, including health insurance and
life insurance, in accordance with the most favorable plans,
practices, programs or policies of the Company and its subsidiaries
in effect on or after the Effective Date or, if more favorable to
the Executive, as in effect at any time thereafter with respect to
other key employees and their families and for purposes of
eligibility for retiree benefits pursuant to such plans, practices,
programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have
remained employed until the end of the Employment Period and to
have retired on the last day of such period; and

      B.  at the expiration of the Employment Period, continue to
provide the Executive with health insurance and on-line travel
privileges on the same basis such benefits were provided to the
Executive on the last day of the Employment Period, with such
benefits to continue for the life of the Executive; provided,
however, that if the Executive becomes eligible for health
insurance through a subsequent employer, the Company's provision of
such benefits shall be secondary to the benefit coverage of the
subsequent employer.

      7.  Non-exclusivity of Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement
shall prevent or limit the Executive's continuing or future
participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plans,
programs, policies or practices, provided by Group, the Company or
any of its subsidiaries and for which the Executive may qualify,
nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as
the Executive may have under any stock option, restricted stock or
other agreements with Group, the Company or any of its
subsidiaries.  Amounts which are vested benefits or which the
Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, 


                               13
<PAGE>



practice or program of Group, the Company or any of its
subsidiaries at or subsequent to the Date of Termination shall be
payable in accordance with such plan, policy practice or program.

      8.  Full Settlement.  The Company's obligation to make the
payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform
its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defence or other claim, right or action
which the Company may have against the Executive or others.  In no
event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or
take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable
to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement. 
The Company agrees to pay, to the full extent permitted by law, all
legal fees and expenses, as incurred by the Company, the Executive
and others, which the Executive may reasonably incur as a result of
any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company or
others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability under,
any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance
thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive
about the amount of any payment pursuant of Section 9 of this
Agreement), plus in each case interest at the applicable Federal
rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

      9.  Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

      (a)  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any
payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but
determined without regard to any additional payments required under
this Section 9, including, but not limited to, any amounts in
respect of (i) options to acquire shares of Group common stock,
(ii) restricted shares of Group common stock, (iii) the letter
agreement entered into as of January 22, 1996 between the Executive
and the Company with respect to supplemental retirement benefits,
and (iv) the letter agreement entered into as of January 22, 1996
between the Executive and the Company with respect to certain
employment matters) (a "Payment"), would be subject to the excise
tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or
penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax,
together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then the Executive
shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up
Payment") in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of
all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect


                               14
<PAGE>


to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes
(and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and
Excise Tax, imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive
retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax
imposed upon Payments.

      (b)  Subject to the provisions of Section 9(c), all
determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including
whether a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such
Gross-Up Payment, shall be made by the firm of independent public
accountants selected by Group to audit its financial statements
(the "Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting
calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 5
business days of the Date of Termination, or such earlier time as
is requested by the Company.  In the event that the Accounting Firm
is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or
group  effecting the Change of Control, the Executive shall appoint
another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the
determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then
be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder).  All fees and
expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the
Company.  Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this
Section 9, shall be paid to the Executive upon the receipt of the
Accounting Firm's determination.  If the Accounting Firm determines
that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, it shall furnish
the Executive with a written opinion that failure to report the
Excise Tax on the Executive's applicable federal income tax return
would not result in the imposition of a negligence or a similar
penalty.  Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding
upon the Company and the Executive.  As a result of the uncertainty
in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the
initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is
possible that Gross-up Payments which will not have been made by
the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent with
the calculations required to be made hereunder.  In the event that
the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 9(c) and the
Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise
Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the
Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be
promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive.

      (c)  The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any
claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would
require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment.  Such
notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later
than ten business days after the Executive knows of such claim and
shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date 


                               15

<PAGE>


on which such claim is requested to be paid.  The Executive shall
not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty-day period
following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or
such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes
with respect to such claim is due).  If the Company notifies the
Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it
desires to contest such claim, the Employee shall:

      (i)  give the Company any information reasonably requested by
the Company relating to such claim,

      (ii)  take such action in connection with contesting such
claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time
to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal
representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably
selected by the Company,

      (iii)  cooperate with the Company in good faith in order
effectively to contest such claim,

      (iv)  permit the Company to participate in any proceedings
relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall
bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional
interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest
and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-
tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax, including interest and
penalties with respect thereto, imposed as a result of such
representation and payment of costs and expenses.  Without
limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(c), the
Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such
contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all
administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with
the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole
option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue
for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and
the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination
before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company
shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the
Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall
advance the amount of such payment to the Executive, on an
interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold the Executive
harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax,
including interest or penalties with respect thereto, imposed with
respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with
respect to such advance; and further provided that any extension of
the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the
taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested 


                               16
<PAGE>



amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested
amount.  Furthermore, the Company's control of the contest shall be
limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be
payable hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or
contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal
Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

      (d)  If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount
advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), the Executive
becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim,
the Executive shall (subject to the Company's complying with the
requirements of Section 9(c)) promptly pay to the Company the
amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited
thereon after taxes applicable thereto).  If, after the receipt by
the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to
Section 9(c), a determination is made that the Executive shall not
be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the
Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to
contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty
days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven
and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such
advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up
Payment required to be paid.

      10.  Confidential Information.  The Executive shall hold in a
fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or
confidential information, knowledge or data relating to Group, the
Company or any of their subsidiaries, and their respective
businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive's
employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and which
shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by
Executive or his representatives in violation of this Agreement). 
After termination of the Executive's employment with the Company,
the Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Company, communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or
data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by it. 
In no event shall an asserted violation of the provisions of this
Section 10 constitute a basis for deferring or withholding any
amounts otherwise payable to the Executive under this Agreement.

      11.  Successors.


      (a)  This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without
the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by
the Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.   This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Executive's legal representatives.

                               17
<PAGE>



      (b)  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

      (c)  The Company will require any successor (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all
or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company
to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to
perform it if no such succession had taken place.  As used in this
Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined
and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which
assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law,
or otherwise.

      12.  Miscellaneous.

      (a)  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
reference to principles of conflict of laws.  The captions of this
Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no

      (d)   The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under
this Agreement such Federal, state or local taxes as shall be
required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or
regulation.

      (e)   The Executive's failure to insist upon strict compliance
with any provision hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of
such provision or any other provision thereof.

      (f)   Words or terms used in this Agreement which connote the
masculine gender are deemed to apply equally to female executives.

      (g)   This Agreement supersedes any prior employment agreement
