Price by the transfer to the Company of Common Shares or upon satisfaction of

Employee Director shall be granted Option Rights, Appreciation Rights and
Restricted Shares, in the aggregate, for more than 100,000 Common Shares in any
one calendar year.

     4.  Option Rights.  The Committee may, from time to time and upon such
         -------------
terms and conditions as it may determine, authorize the granting to Participants
of options to purchase Common Shares. Such grants may be original awards or
Replacement Awards. Each such grant may utilize any or all of the
authorizations, and shall be subject to all of the requirements contained in the
following provisions:

     (a)  Each grant shall specify the number of Common Shares to which it
pertains subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3 of this plan.

     (b)  Each grant shall specify an Option Price per share, which may not be
less than the Market Value per Share on the Date of Grant, provided that this
restriction shall not apply to Replacement Awards.

     (c)  Each grant shall specify whether the Option Price shall be payable (i)
in cash or by check acceptable to the Company, (ii) by the actual or
constructive transfer to the Company

                                       5
<PAGE>

of Common Shares owned by the Optionee for at least 6 months (or other
consideration authorized pursuant to Section 4(d)) having a value at the time of
exercise equal to the total Option Price, or (iii) by a combination of such
methods of payment.

     (d)  The Committee may determine, at or after the Date of Grant, that
payment of the Option Price of any Option Right (other than an Incentive Stock
Option) may also be made in whole or in part in the form of Restricted Shares or
other Common Shares that are forfeitable or subject to restrictions on transfer,
Deferred Shares, (based, in each case, on the Market Value per Share on the date
of exercise), or other Option Rights (based on the Spread on the date of
exercise). Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at or after the Date of
Grant, whenever any Option Price is paid in whole or in part by means of any of
the forms of consideration specified in this Section 4(d), the Common Shares
received upon the exercise of the Option Rights shall be subject to such risks
of forfeiture or restrictions on transfer as may correspond to any that apply to
the consideration surrendered, but only to the extent, determined with respect
to the consideration surrendered, of (i) the number of shares, or (ii) the
Spread of any unexercisable portion of Option Rights.

     (e)  Any grant may provide for deferred payment of the Option Price from
the proceeds of sale through a bank or broker on a date satisfactory to the
Company of some or all of the shares to which such exercise relates.

     (f)  Any grant may, at or after the Date of Grant, provide for the
automatic grant of Reload Option Rights to an Optionee upon the exercise of
Option Rights (including Reload Option Rights) using Common Shares or other
consideration specified in Section 4(d). Reload Option Rights shall cover up to
the number of Common Shares, Deferred Shares, or Option Rights surrendered to
the Company upon any such exercise in payment of the Option Price or to meet any
withholding obligations. Reload Options may not have an Option Price that is
less than the applicable Market Value per Share at the time of exercise and
shall be on such other terms as may be specified by the Committee, which may be
the same as or different from those of the original Option Rights.

     (g)  Successive grants may be made to the same Participant whether or not
any Option Rights previously granted to such Participant remain unexercised.

     (h)  Each grant shall specify the period or periods of continuous service
by the Optionee with the Company or any Subsidiary that is necessary before the
Option Rights or installments thereof will become exercisable and may provide
for the earlier exercise of such Option Rights in the event of a Change in
Control, retirement, death or disability of the Optionee or other similar
transaction or event.

     (i)  Any grant of Option Rights may specify Management Objectives that must
be achieved as a condition to the exercise of such rights.

     (j)  Option Rights granted under this Plan may be (i) options, including,
without limitation, Incentive Stock Options that are intended to qualify
under particular provisions of the Code, (ii) options that are not intended
so to qualify, or (iii) combinations of the foregoing.

                                       6
<PAGE>

     (k)  The Committee may, at or after the Date of Grant of any Option Rights
(other than Incentive Stock Options), provide for the payment of dividend
equivalents to the Optionee on either a current or deferred or contingent
basis or may provide that such equivalents shall be credited against the
Option Price.

     (l)  The exercise of an Option Right shall result in the cancellation on a
share-for-share basis of any Tandem Appreciation Right authorized under
Section 5 of this Plan.

     (m)  No Option Right shall be exercisable more than 10 years from the Date
of Grant.

     (n)  Each grant of Option Rights shall be evidenced by an agreement or
other written notice from the Company by an officer and delivered to the
Optionee and containing such terms and provisions, consistent with this Plan, as
the Committee may approve.

     (o)  Each Replacement Award shall reflect the adjustments provided for in
the Employee Benefits Agreements and shall have the same material terms and
conditions as the award it replaces under the Equifax Stock Incentive Plans, as
determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to
the contrary, no Replacement Award in substitution of an award that qualified as
an Incentive Stock Option immediately before the grant of the Replacement Award
shall contain any term that is more favorable than the terms of the substituted
award.

     5.  Appreciation Rights.
         -------------------

     (a)  The Committee may authorize the granting (i) to any Optionee, of
Tandem Appreciation Rights in respect of Option Rights granted hereunder, and
(ii) to any Participant, of Free-Standing Appreciation Rights. A Tandem
Appreciation Right shall be a right of the Optionee, exercisable by surrender of
the related Option Right, to receive from the Company an amount determined by
the Board, which shall be expressed as a percentage of the Spread (not exceeding
100 percent) at the time of exercise. Tandem Appreciation Rights may be granted
at any time prior to the exercise or termination of the related Option Rights;
provided, however, that a Tandem Appreciation Right awarded in relation to an
Incentive Stock Option must be granted concurrently with such Incentive Stock
Option. A Free-Standing Appreciation Right shall be a right of the Participant
to receive from the Company an amount determined by the Committee, which shall
be expressed as a percentage of the Spread (not exceeding 100 percent) at the
time of exercise.

     (b)  Each grant of Appreciation Rights may utilize any or all of the
authorizations, and shall be subject to all of the requirements, contained
in the following provisions:

          (i)  Any grant may specify that the amount payable on exercise of an
     Appreciation Right may be paid by the Company in cash, in Common Shares or
     in any combination thereof and may either grant to the Participant or
     retain in the Committee the right to elect among those alternatives.

          (ii) Any grant may specify that the amount payable on exercise of an
     Appreciation Right may not exceed a maximum specified by the Committee at
     the Date of Grant.

                                       7

          (iii) Any grant may specify waiting periods before exercise and
     permissible exercise dates or periods.

          (iv)  Any grant may specify that such Appreciation Right may be
     exercised only in the event of, or earlier in the event of, a Change in
     Control or other transaction or event.

          (v)   Any grant may provide for the payment to the Participant of
     dividend equivalents thereon in cash or Common Shares on a current,
     deferred or contingent basis.

          (vi)  Any grant of Appreciation Rights may specify Management
     Objectives that must be achieved as a condition of the exercise of such
     Rights.

          (vii) Each grant of Appreciation Rights shall be evidenced by an
     agreement executed on behalf of the Company by an officer and delivered to
     and accepted by the Participant, which agreement shall describe such
     Appreciation Rights, identify the related Option Rights (if applicable),
     state that such Appreciation Rights are subject to all the terms and
     conditions of this Plan, and contain such other terms and provisions,
     consistent with this Plan, as the Committee may approve.

     (c)  Any grant of Tandem Appreciation Rights shall provide that such Rights
may be exercised only at a time when the related Option Right is also
exercisable and at a time when the Spread is positive, and by surrender of the
related Option Right for cancellation.

     (d)  Regarding Free-standing Appreciation Rights only:

          (i)   Each grant shall specify in respect of each Free-standing
     Appreciation Right a Base Price, which shall be equal to or greater than
     the Market Value per Share on the Date of Grant;

          (ii)  Successive grants may be made to the same Participant regardless
     of whether any Free-standing Appreciation Rights previously granted to the
     Participant remain unexercised; and

          (iii) No Free-standing Appreciation Right granted under this Plan may
     be exercised more than 10 years from the Date of Grant.

     6.  Restricted Shares.  The Committee may also authorize the grant or sale
of Restricted Shares to Participants. Each such grant or sale may utilize any or
all of the authorizations, and shall be subject to all of the requirements,
contained in the following provisions:

     (a)  Each such grant or sale shall constitute an immediate transfer of the
ownership of Common Shares to the Participant in consideration of the

restrictions on transfer hereinafter referred to.

                                       8
<PAGE>

     (b)  Each such grant or sale may be made without additional consideration
or in consideration of a payment by such Participant that is less than Market
Value per Share at the Date of Grant.

     (c)  Each such grant or sale shall provide that the Restricted Shares
covered by such grant or sale shall be subject to a "substantial risk of
forfeiture" within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code for a period to be
determined by the Committee at the Date of Grant and may provide for the earlier
lapse of such substantial risk of forfeiture in the event of a Change in Control
or other transaction or event; provided, however, that the Restricted Shares
covered by any Replacement Award shall be subject to a "substantial risk of
forfeiture" for the period provided in the award it replaced, as determined by
the Committee.

     (d)  Each such grant or sale shall provide that during the period for which
such substantial risk of forfeiture is to continue, the transferability of the
Restricted Shares shall be prohibited or restricted in the manner and to the
extent prescribed by the Board at the Date of Grant (which restrictions may
include, without limitation, rights of repurchase or first refusal in the
Company or provisions subjecting the Restricted Shares to a continuing
substantial risk of forfeiture in the hands of any transferee).

     (e)  Any grant of Restricted Shares may specify Management Objectives that,
if achieved, will result in termination or early termination of the restrictions
applicable to such shares. Each grant may specify in respect of such Management
Objectives a minimum acceptable level of achievement and may set forth a formula
for determining the number of Restricted Shares on which restrictions will
terminate if performance is at or above the minimum level, but falls short of
full achievement of the specified Management Objectives.

     (f)  Any grant or sale of Restricted Shares may require that any or all
dividends or other distributions paid thereon during the period of such
restrictions be automatically deferred and reinvested in additional Restricted
Shares, which may be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying award.

     (g)  Each grant or sale of Restricted Shares shall be evidenced by an
agreement executed on behalf of the Company by any officer and delivered to and
accepted by the Participant and shall contain such terms and provisions,
consistent with this Plan, as the Committee may approve. Unless otherwise
directed by the Committee, all certificates representing Restricted Shares shall
be held in custody by the Company until all restrictions thereon shall have
lapsed, together with a stock power or powers executed by the Participant in
whose name such certificates are registered, endorsed in blank and covering such
Shares.

     7.  Deferred Shares.  The Committee may also authorize the granting or sale
         ---------------
of Deferred Shares to Participants. Each such grant or sale may utilize any or
all of the authorizations, and shall be subject to all of the requirements
contained in the following provisions:

     (a)  Each such grant or sale shall constitute the agreement by the Company
to deliver Common Shares to the Participant in the future in consideration of
the performance of services,

                                       9
<PAGE>

but subject to the fulfillment of such conditions during the Deferral Period as
the Committee may specify.

     (b)  Each such grant or sale may be made without additional consideration
or in consideration of a payment by such Participant that is less than the
Market Value per Share at the Date of Grant.

     (c)  Each such grant or sale shall be subject to a Deferral Period of not
less than one year, as determined by the Committee at the Date of Grant, and may
provide for the earlier lapse or other modification of such Deferral Period in
the event of a Change in Control, or other transaction or event.

     (d)  During the Deferral Period, the Participant shall have no right to
transfer any rights under his or her award and shall have no rights of ownership
in the Deferred Shares and shall have no right to vote them, but the Committee
may, at or after the Date of Grant, authorize the payment of dividend
equivalents on such Shares on either a current or deferred or contingent basis,
either in cash or in additional Common Shares.

     (e)  Each grant or sale of Deferred Shares shall be evidenced by an
agreement executed on behalf of the Company by any officer and delivered to and
accepted by the Participant and shall contain such terms and provisions,
consistent with this Plan, as the Committee may approve.

     8.  Awards to Non-Employee Directors.  The Committee may, from time to time
         --------------------------------
and upon such terms and conditions as it may determine, authorize the granting
to Non-Employee Directors of Option Rights and may also authorize the grant or
sale of Restricted Shares to Non-Employee Directors.

     (a)  Each grant of Option Rights awarded pursuant to this Section 8 shall
be upon terms and conditions consistent with Section 4 of this Plan and shall be
evidenced by an agreement in such form as shall be approved by the Committee.
Each grant shall specify an Option Price per share, which shall not be less than
the Market Value per Share on the Date of Grant. Each such Option Right granted
under the Plan shall expire not more than 10 years from the Date of Grant and
shall be subject to earlier termination as hereinafter provided. Unless
otherwise determined by the Committee, such Option Rights shall be subject to
the following additional terms and conditions:

          (i)   Each grant shall specify the number of Common Shares to which it
     pertains subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3 of this plan.

          (ii)  In the event of the death or disability of the holder of any
     such Option Rights, each of the then outstanding vested Option Rights of
     such holder may be exercised at any time within a stated period after such
     death or disability, as provided by the Committee in the grant, but in no
     event after the expiration date of the term of such Option Rights.

          (iii) If a Non-Employee Director subsequently becomes an employee of
     the Company or a Subsidiary while remaining a member of the Board, any
     Option Rights

                                       10
<PAGE>

     held under the Plan by such individual at the time of such commencement of
     employment shall not be affected thereby.

          (iv)  Option Rights may be exercised by a Non-Employee Director only
     upon payment to the Company in full of the Option Price of the Common
     Shares to be delivered. Such payment shall be made in cash or in Common
     Shares then owned by the optionee for at least six months, or in a
     combination of cash and such Common Shares.

          (v)   Any grant may provide for deferred payment of the Option Price
     from the proceeds of sale through a bank or broker on a date satisfactory
     to the Company of some or all of the shares to which such exercise relates.

     (b)  Each grant or sale of Restricted Shares pursuant to this Section 8
shall be upon terms and conditions consistent with Section 6 of this Plan.

     9.  Transferability.
         ---------------

     (a)  Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, no Option Right,
Appreciation Right or other derivative security granted under the Plan shall be
transferable by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, Option Rights and
Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable during the Optionee's lifetime only by
him or her or by his or her guardian or legal representative.

     (b)  The Committee may specify at the Date of Grant that part or all of the
Common Shares that are (i) to be issued or transferred by the Company upon the
exercise of Option Rights or Appreciation Rights, or upon the termination of the
Deferral Period applicable to Deferred Shares or (ii) no longer subject to the
substantial risk of forfeiture and restrictions on transfer referred to in
Section 6 of this Plan, shall be subject to further restrictions on transfer.

     (c)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(a), the Committee may
provide that any grant of Option Rights (other than Incentive Stock Options),
Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares, and Deferred Shares shall be
transferable by a Participant, without payment of consideration therefor by the
transferee, to any one or more members of the Participant's Immediate Family (or
to one or more trusts established solely for the benefit of one or more members
of the Participant's Immediate Family or to one or more partnerships in which
the only partners are members of the Participant's Immediate Family); provided,
however, that (i) no such transfer shall be effective unless reasonable prior
notice thereof is delivered to the Company and the Committee and such transfer
is thereafter effected in accordance with any terms and conditions that shall
have been made applicable thereto by the Company or the Committee and (ii) any
such transferee shall be subject to the same terms and conditions hereunder as
the Participant.

     10.  Adjustments.   The Committee may make or provide for such adjustments
          -----------
in the numbers of Common Shares covered by outstanding Option Rights,
Appreciation Rights and Deferred Shares granted hereunder, and in the Option
Price and Base Price, and in the kind of shares covered thereby, as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, may determine is
equitably required to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of
Participants or Optionees that otherwise would result from (a) any stock
dividend, stock split, combination of

                                       11
<PAGE>

shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the
Company, or (b) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out, split-
up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of
assets, issuance of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (c) any other
corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing.
Moreover, in the event of any such transaction or event, the Committee, in its
discretion, may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding awards under
this Plan such alternative consideration as it, in good faith, may determine to
be equitable in the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the
surrender of all awards so replaced. The Committee may also make or provide for
such adjustments in the numbers of shares specified in Section 3 of this Plan as
the Committee in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, may determine is
appropriate to reflect any transaction or event described in this Section 10;
provided, however, that any such adjustment to the number specified in Section
3(c)(i) shall be made only if and to the extent that such adjustment would not
cause any Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option to fail so to
qualify, and the Committee may take into consideration, as to any award subject
to a proposed adjustment, the potential adverse effect thereof under applicable
tax or other laws, and may adjust such awards inconsistently as a consequence of
those effects.

     11.  Change in Control.   For purposes of this Plan, except as may be
          -----------------

from the Company that is approved by the Incumbent Board, (ii) by the Company,
(iii) by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by

outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of
Directors of the entity resulting from that Business Combination (including,
without limitation, an entity that as a result of that transaction owns the

through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions relative
to each other as their ownership, immediately prior to that Business
Combination, of the Voting Stock of the Company, (ii) no Person (other than the
Company, that entity resulting from that Business Combination, or any employee
benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company, any
Eighty Percent (80%) Subsidiary or that entity resulting from that Business

more of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the entity resulting from

all of the assets of the Company; or

     by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which that person is
     named as a nominee for director, without objection to that nomination), but
     excluding, for that purpose, any individual whose initial assumption of

     12.  Fractional Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue any
          -----------------
fractional Common Shares pursuant to this Plan. The Committee may provide for
the elimination of fractions or for the settlement of fractions in cash.

     13.  Withholding Taxes.  To the extent that the Company is required to
          -----------------
withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any payment
made or benefit realized by a Participant or other person under this Plan, and
the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it
shall be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such
benefit that the Participant or such other person make arrangements satisfactory
to the Company and the Committee for payment of the balance of such taxes
required to be withheld, which arrangements (in the discretion of the Committee)
may include relinquishment of a portion of such benefit. With the consent of the
Committee, a Participant or such other person may also make similar arrangements
with respect to the payment of any taxes with respect to which withholding is
not required.

     14.  Foreign Employees.   In order to facilitate the making of any grant or
          -----------------
combination of grants under this Plan, the Committee may provide for such
special terms for awards to Participants who are foreign nationals or who are
employed by the Company or any Subsidiary outside of the United States of
America as the Committee may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate
differences in local law, tax policy or custom, which special terms may be
contained in an Appendix attached hereto.  Moreover, the Committee may approve
such supplements to or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of this
Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes, without
thereby affecting the terms of this Plan as in effect for any other purpose, and
the Secretary or other appropriate officer of the Company may certify any such
document as having been approved and adopted in the same manner as this Plan. No
such special terms, supplements, amendments or restatements, however, shall
include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of this Plan as then
in effect unless this Plan could have been amended to eliminate such
inconsistency without further approval by the shareholders of the Company.

     15.  Administration of the Plan.
          --------------------------
     (a)  This Plan shall be administered by the Committee. A majority of the
Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the action of the members of the
Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, or acts
unanimously approved in writing, shall be the acts of the Committee. Except as
the Board may otherwise determine, so long as the Company's outstanding Common
Shares are owned by Equifax Inc., all matters relating to Awards under the Plan
shall be, and hereby are, delegated to the Compensation and Human Resources
Committee of Equifax Inc., provided that all actions taken shall be subject to
the approval of the Board.

     (b)  The Committee, in its discretion, may delegate to one or more officers
of the Company, all or part of the Committee's authority and duties with respect
to Participants who are not subject to the reporting and other provisions of
Section 16 of the Exchange Act or any successor rule to the same effect. In the
event of such delegation, and as to matters encompassed by the delegation,
references in the Plan to the Committee shall be interpreted as a reference to
the Committee's delegate or delegates. The Committee may revoke or amend the
terms of a

                                       14
<PAGE>

delegation at any time but such action shall not invalidate any prior actions of
the Committee's delegate or delegates that were consistent with the terms of the
Plan.

     (c)  The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any provision
of this Plan or of any agreement, notification or document evidencing the grant
of Option Rights, Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares, or Deferred Shares,
and any determination by the Committee pursuant to any provision of this Plan or
of any such agreement, notification or document shall be final and conclusive.
No member of the Committee shall be liable for any such action or determination
made in good faith.

     16.  Amendments, Etc.
          ---------------
     (a)  The Committee may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan in
whole or in part; provided, however, that any amendment which must be approved
by the shareholders of the Company in order to comply with applicable law or the
rules of the New York Stock Exchange or, if the Common Shares are not traded on
the New York Stock Exchange, the principal national securities exchange upon
which the Common Shares are traded or quoted, shall not be effective unless and
until such approval has been obtained. Presentation of this Plan or any
amendment hereof for shareholder approval shall not be construed to limit the
Company's authority to offer similar or dissimilar benefits under other plans
without shareholder approval. No amendment shall, without a Participant's
consent, adversely affect any rights of any Participant with respect to any
award outstanding at the time such amendment is made. No amendment to this Plan
shall become effective until shareholder approval is obtained if (i) the
amendment increases the aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued
under the Plan, (ii) the amendment changes the class of individuals eligible to
become Participants, or (iii) the amendment extends the duration of the Plan.

     (b)  The Committee shall not, without the further approval of the
shareholders of the Company, authorize the amendment of any outstanding Option
Right to reduce the Option Price. Furthermore, no Option Right shall be canceled
and replaced with awards having a lower Option Price without further approval of
the shareholders of the Company. This Section 16(b) is intended to prohibit the
repricing of "underwater" Option Rights and shall not be construed to prohibit
the adjustments provided for in Section 10 of this Plan.

     (c)  The Committee also may permit Participants to elect to defer the
issuance of Common Shares or the settlement of awards in cash under the Plan
pursuant to such rules, procedures or programs as it may establish for purposes
of this Plan. The Committee also may provide that deferred issuances and
settlements include the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents or interest
on the deferral amounts.

     (d)  The Committee may condition the grant of any award or combination of
awards authorized under this Plan on the surrender or deferral by the
Participant of his or her right to receive a cash bonus or other compensation
otherwise payable by the Company or a Subsidiary to the Participant.

     (e)  In case of termination of employment by reason of death, disability or
normal or early retirement, or in the case of hardship or other special
circumstances, of a Participant who

                                       15
<PAGE>

holds an Option Right or Appreciation Right not immediately exercisable in full,
or any Restricted Shares as to which the substantial risk of forfeiture or the
prohibition or restriction on transfer has not lapsed, or any Deferred Shares as
to which the Deferral Period has not been completed, or who holds Common Shares
subject to any transfer restriction imposed pursuant to Section 9(b) of this
Plan, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the time at which
such Option Right or Appreciation Right may be exercised or the time at which
such substantial risk of forfeiture or prohibition or restriction on transfer
will lapse or the time when such Deferral Period will end or the time when such
transfer restriction will terminate or may waive any other limitation or
requirement under any such award.

     (f)  This Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any right with respect
to continuance of employment or other service with the Company or any
Subsidiary, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or
any Subsidiary to terminate such Participant's employment or other service at
any time.

     (g)  To the extent that any provision of this Plan would prevent any Option
Right that was intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option from qualifying
as such, that provision shall be null and void with respect to such Option
Right. Such provision, however, shall remain in effect for other Option Rights
and there shall be no further effect on any provision of this Plan.

     17.  Termination.  No grant shall be made under this Plan more than 10
          -----------
years after the date on which this Plan is first approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company, but all grants made on or prior to such date shall
continue in effect thereafter subject to the terms thereof and of this Plan. The
Committee may terminate the Plan at any time provided that such termination
shall not adversely affect the rights of any Participant or beneficiary under
any Award granted prior to the date of such termination.

                                       16
