                     2000 SENIOR EXECUTIVE STOCK LOAN PLAN

GENERAL INFORMATION

     We originally adopted the Plan effective as of February 14, 2000. The
purpose of the Plan is to secure for us and our shareholders the benefits
arising from capital ownership, and thereby entrepreneurial risk, by those of
our and our subsidiaries' senior executive officers, who are and will be
responsible for our future growth and continued success and that of our
subsidiaries, by enabling those executives to increase their ownership of our
Common Stock.

LOANS; PURCHASED SHARES

     The aggregate dollar amount of Loans that we can extend under the Plan may
not exceed $2,000,000. No Loans, however, may be extended under the Plan after
February 14, 2002. The Committee has the discretion to determine the time or
times when Loans shall be extended and the dollar amount of Loans extended to
any Participant.

     The Purchased Shares will be issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock. A Participant will acquire his or her Purchase Shares on the open market
using a securities broker or dealer of the Participant's choosing. The Loan may
not be used to cover any portion of the brokerage fees and other similar
expenses in connection with a purchase of Purchased Shares; the Participant
will be entirely responsible for these fees and expenses.

ELIGIBILITY

     The persons eligible to participate in the Plan include those officers and
employees of ours and our subsidiaries who from time to time are selected by the
Committee in its discretion.

ADMINISTRATION

     The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of
our Board of Directors (the "Board"). The Committee administers the Plan as set
forth below, but is not a trustee thereof. The Board shall determine, in its
sole discretion, who serves on the Committee and whether any member of the
Committee is removed therefrom. The members of the Committee have no fixed term
of office. The current members of the Compensation Committee are John F.
Antioco, Morton Godlas, Charles J. Philippin, Robert Smith and Christopher J.
Stadler.

     Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee has the
authority, in its sole discretion:

          -  to construe the Plan and the Plan Documents (as defined in the
             Plan) entered into under the Plan;

             the Plan;

         --  to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for

                  portion of a non-cash dividend distribution or other property
                  received in respect of any of the Purchased Shares for the
                  payment of income taxes.

     Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Plan, any Loan
extended under the Plan or any Plan Document will determined unilaterally by the
Committee in its sole discretion and shall be conclusive and binding on the
parties.

REQUESTING LOANS

     In order to request a Loan, a Participant must execute and deliver to us an
"Election to Participate" in the form attached to the Plan. The Committee has
the discretion to determine the time or times when Loans shall be extended and
the dollar amount of Loans extended to any Participant.

TERMS OF LOANS

     Each Loan extended under the Plan must be evidenced by a written instrument
containing the terms and conditions of the Loan. The Plan provides that the
Committee has discretion to determine the terms and conditions of the Loans, in
each case subject to the terms of the Plan. All of these terms and conditions
shall be set forth in the Plan Documents and/or the Plan. The material terms of
the Loans are as follows:

     Maturity     The Loans have a maturity of five (5) years.

     Interest     Interest on the Loans accrues on the outstanding principal
                  amount at the rate, calculated each quarter of our fiscal
                  year, that equals the average rate we paid under the revolving
                  portion of our senior credit facility during the fiscal
                  quarter, and is payable in arrears on or prior to the 30th day
                  after the end of each respective fiscal quarter. Interest on
                  overdue principal, and to the extent permitted by law, on any
                  overdue interest, is due on demand

               and, accrues at a rate equal to the rate of interest from time to
               time announced publicly by The Chase Manhattan Bank, as its base
               rate plus 3% (but in no event less than 8%), calculated on the
               basis of the actual number of days elapsed over 365, from the
               date the principal or interest was due to the date of payment.

Prepayment     A Participant shall have the right at any time and from time to
               time on any business day to prepay the principal amount of a
               Loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in whole
               or in part, without penalty or premium, upon at least three
               business days' prior written notice to us.

Security       Loans are secured by a pledge of the Purchased Shares, which
               shall be pursuant to a Stock Pledge Agreement (the "Pledge
               Agreement") described in more detail below, between us and the
               Participant.

Default        Events of default under the Loans include:

               --  a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a
                   Loan;

               --  a breach of any other covenant contained in the note
                   evidencing the Loan, which breach is unremedied for thirty
                   days after written notice by the holder hereof;

               --  the Participant becoming (voluntarily or involuntarily)
                   subject to any action for relief under any federal or state
                   bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar law;

               --  the Participant not delivering to us, within 15 days of
                   receiving the Loan, all certificates or instruments
                   representing or evidencing the Purchased Shares and other
                   documents as required by the Pledge Agreement;

               --  the occurrence of an event of default under the Pledge
                   Agreement; and

               --  the Participant ceasing to be an employee of ours or any of
                   our subsidiaries, other than as a result of the Participant's
                   retirement, death, Disability (as defined in the Plan) or
                   being fired without Cause (as defined in the Plan).

PLEDGE OF PURCHASED SHARES; RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER

     The Plan provides that each Participant must enter into an agreement with
us to pledge to us all of his or her Purchased Shares, together with any
non-cash dividends or distributions payable with respect to those shares and
any securities or other property (other than cash) payable in respect of or in
exchange for his or her Purchased Shares pursuant to any merger or

                                       5

<PAGE>   6
similar transaction and all proceeds thereof to secure repayment of the Loan.
The Participant is required to deliver a certificate representing the Purchased
Shares to us, together with a stock power in order to perfect this pledge.

     In the event that we pay any cash dividend or make any distribution with
respect to the Pledged Shares, the Participant is required to make a mandatory
prepayment with respect to the Loan equal to the amount of any dividend or
distribution, which shall be applied first to accrued but unpaid interest under
the Loan, then to principal.

     In the event that the Participant at any time desires to obtain a release
of all or part of any Pledged Property securing the Loan, as a condition to the
release, the Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to us (i) if the
released Purchased Shares are to be sold contemporaneously with their release,
for the payment directly to us by the purchaser of the released Purchased Shares
of all proceeds from the sale of those Shares which would otherwise be payable
to the Participant (these proceeds to be applied first to accrued but unpaid
interest under the Loan, then to principal, with any proceeds in excess of
amounts being paid by us to the Participant), or (ii) in all circumstances other
than those in (i) above, for the payment by the Participant of all unpaid
amounts outstanding under the Loan, the promissory note evidencing the Loan and
the Pledge Agreement.

     In addition, except as required by the Pledge Agreement, a Participant may
not sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or transfer his or her Purchased Shares in
any way (other than by the Participants will or the laws of descent and
distribution) until the first anniversary of the date of their purchase.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee has the discretion to permit a
Participant to sell any or all of his or her Purchased Shares prior to
expiration of this holding period. Any heir or legatee of a Participant is bound
by the terms of the Plan Documents and any other terms, restrictions, or
limitations placed on the Purchased Shares by the Committee.

     Notwithstanding the pledge of the Purchased Shares, the Participant shall
be treated as a stockholder with respect to the Purchased Shares, including the
right to vote the shares.

     The Committee may, as a condition to extending a Loan hereunder, require
that the Participant collateralize the Loan by pledging to us additional
collateral as may from time to time be required by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve Board.

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

     We may amend the Plan at any time for the purpose of satisfying the
requirements of applicable law or regulations or for any other purpose permitted
by law.

TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE LOANS AND SALE OF THE PURCHASED SHARES

     The following discussion is a brief generalized summary of the federal
income tax treatment which will generally apply to the extension of Loans under
the Plan based on federal income tax laws in effect as of the date hereof. It is
possible that changes in statutory or case

                                       6


<PAGE>   7
law, regulations and/or interpretations (some of which may have retroactive
effect) may occur after the date hereof which will result in a tax treatment of
the Loans different from the discussion contained herein. This description does
not cover state, local and foreign tax ramifications applicable to recipients of
Loans. Except as provided herein, this description also does not discuss all
federal tax provisions which may apply to a taxpayer's particular tax situation,
including, but not limited to, federal gift tax, estate tax and alternative
minimum tax issues. Therefore, each Participant is urged to consult with his or
her own tax advisor regarding the particular federal, state, local and foreign
income and any other tax consequences of participating in the Plan, taking a
Loan and of owning and disposing of any Purchased Shares.

     TAKING A LOAN

         The receipt of Loan proceeds by a Participant will not have any federal
income tax consequences. Participants will not be entitled to a deduction for
payments of principal. Assuming that a Participant holds the Purchased Shares
for investment, he or she will be entitled to an investment interest deduction
for interest paid on a Loan to the extent such interest does not exceed his or
her net investment income for the year the interest is paid. "Net investment
income" is a Participant's investment income that exceeds his or her investment
expenses (other than interest) for the year. If a Participant's investment
interest exceeds his or her net investment income in a taxable year, the excess
interest will be treated as paid by him or her in the next taxable year. Each
Participant is urged to consult his or own tax advisor regarding his or her
ability to deduct interest paid with respect to a Loan.

     SALE, EXCHANGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF PURCHASED SHARES

         If a Participant sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of his or her
Purchased Shares, he or she will generally recognize gain or loss equal to the
difference between the amount he or she receives and his or her tax basis in the
Purchased Shares sold. Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss, assuming
that the Participant held the Purchased Shares as a capital asset, and will be
long-term capital gain or loss if he or she held the Purchased Shares for more
than one year. For individuals, the tax rate on long-term capital gain in 20%.
Each Participant is urged to consult his or her own tax advisor regarding the
consequences of disposing of his or her Purchased Shares.
