specifying which one of the following way the Stock Retainer is to be delivered:
(a) on the date which is three years after the

with respect to the Year beginning on the Effective Date, any Deferral Election
or revocation thereof must be delivered no later than the close of business on
the thirtieth (30th) day after the Effective Date.

7.  Deferred Stock Accounts.

The Company shall maintain a Deferred Stock Account for each Participant who
makes a Deferral Election to which shall be credited, as of the applicable
Payment Time, the number of shares of Common Stock payable pursuant to the Stock
Retainer to which the Deferral Election relates. So long as any amounts in such
Deferred Stock Account have not been delivered to the Participant under Section
8, each Deferred Stock Account shall be credited as of the payment date for any
dividend paid or other distribution made with respect to the Common Stock, with
a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (a) the number of shares of Common
Stock shown in such Deferred Stock Account on the record date for such dividend
or distribution multiplied by (b) the Dividend Equivalent for such dividend or
distribution.

8.  Delivery of Shares.

(a) The shares of Common Stock in a Participant's Deferred Stock Account with
respect to any Stock Retainer for which a Deferral Election has been made
(together with dividends attributable to such shares credited to such Deferred
Stock Account) shall be delivered in accordance with this Section 8 as soon as
practicable after the applicable Delivery Date. Except with respect to a
Deferral Election pursuant to Section 6(c), or other agreement between the
parties, such shares shall be delivered at one time; provided that, if the
number of shares so delivered includes a fractional share, such number shall be
rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. If the Participant has in effect
a Deferral Election pursuant to Section 6(c), then such shares shall be
delivered in five equal annual installments (together with dividends
attributable to such shares credited to such Deferred Stock Account), with the
first such installment being delivered on the first anniversary of the Delivery
Date; provided that, if in order to equalize such installments, fractional
shares would have to be delivered, such installments shall be adjusted by
rounding to the nearest whole share. If any such shares are to be delivered
after the Participant has died or become legally incompetent, they shall be
delivered to the

                                       3
<PAGE>


Participant's estate or legal guardian, as the case may be, in accordance with
the foregoing; provided that, if the Participant dies with a Deferral Election
pursuant to Section 6(c) in effect, the Committee shall deliver all remaining
undelivered shares to the Participant's estate immediately. References to a
Participant in this Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Participant's estate or
legal guardian, where appropriate.

(b) The Company may, but shall not be required to, create a grantor trust or
utilize an existing grantor trust (in either case, "Trust") to assist it in
accumulating the shares of Common Stock needed to fulfill its obligations under
this Section 8. However, Participants shall have no beneficial or other interest
in the Trust and the assets thereof, and their rights under the Plan shall be as
general creditors of the Company, unaffected by the existence or nonexistence of
the Trust, except that deliveries of Stock Retainers to Participants from the
Trust shall, to the extent thereof, be treated as satisfying the Company's
obligations under this Section 8.

9.  Share Certificates; Voting and Other Rights.

The certificates for shares delivered to a Participant pursuant to Section 8
above shall be issued in the name of the Participant, and from and after the
date of such issuance the Participant shall be entitled to all rights of a
shareholder with respect to Common Stock for all such shares issued in his or
her name, including the right to vote the shares, and the Participant shall
receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect thereto.

10.  General Restrictions.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or agreements made pursuant
thereto, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate
or certificates for shares of Common Stock under the Plan prior to fulfillment
of all of the following conditions:

(i) Listing or approval for listing upon official notice of issuance of such
shares on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., or such other securities exchange
as may at the time be a market for the Common Stock;

(ii) Any registration or other qualification of such shares under any state or
federal law or regulation, or the maintaining in effect of any such registration
or other qualification which the Committee shall, upon the advice of counsel,
deem necessary or advisable; and

(iii) Obtaining any other consent, approval, or permit from any state or federal
governmental agency which the Committee shall, after receiving the advice of
counsel, determine to be necessary or advisable.

(b) Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting other
or additional compensation arrangements for the Participants.

11.  Shares Available.

Subject to Section 12 below, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which

Million (4,000,000). Shares of Common Stock issueable under the Plan may be
taken from treasury shares of the Company or purchased on the open market.

change in corporate capitalization, such as a stock split, combination of
shares, exchange of shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase Common Stock
at a price below its fair market value, reclassification, or recapitalization,
or a corporate transaction, such as any merger, consolidation, separation,
including a spin-off, or other extraordinary distribution of stock or property
of the Company, any reorganization (whether or not such reorganization comes
within the definition of such term in Section 368 of the Code) or any partial or
complete liquidation of the Company (each of the foregoing a "Transaction"), in
each case other than any such Transaction which constitutes a Change of Control
(as defined below), (i) the Deferred Stock Accounts shall be credited with the
amount and kind of shares or other property which would have been received by a
holder of the number of shares of Common Stock held in such Deferred Stock
Account had such shares of Common Stock been outstanding as of the effectiveness
of any such Transaction, (ii) the number and kind of shares or other property
subject to the Plan shall likewise be appropriately adjusted to reflect the
effectiveness of any such Transaction and (iii) the Committee shall
appropriately adjust any other relevant provisions of the Plan and any such
modification by the Committee shall be binding and conclusive on all persons.

(b) If the shares of Common Stock credited to the Deferred Stock Accounts are
converted pursuant to Section 12(a) into another form of property, references in
the Plan to the Common Stock shall be deemed, where appropriate, to refer to
such other form of property, with such other modifications as may be required
for the Plan to operate in accordance with its purposes. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, references to delivery of certificates for shares
of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to delivery of cash and the incidents
of ownership of any other property held in the Deferred Stock Accounts.

(c) In lieu of the adjustment contemplated by Section 12(a), in the event of a
Change of Control, the following shall occur on the date of the Change of
Control: (i) the shares of Common Stock held in each Participant's Deferred
Stock Account shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding as of the Change of
Control; (ii) the Company shall forthwith deliver to each Participant who has a
Deferred Stock Account all of the shares of Common Stock or any other property

the Company, (c) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust)
sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the
