Restricted Stock
----------------

         (a)      Subject to the following terms and conditions, this Agreement
evidences that on the date that the Plan is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court
and becomes effective in accordance with its terms (the "Effective Date"), the
Company shall grant the Executive a restricted stock award of 129,132 shares of
Common Stock (the "Restricted Stock") (or, in the event of a modification of the

such number of shares as equals 1% of the Common Stock outstanding immediately
after the Effective Date (taking into account all options authorized under the
Company's Management Incentive Plan, all warrants issued under the Plan, and the
award of the Restricted Stock)).

         (b)      The Restricted Stock which shall vest and the restrictions
imposed thereon shall lapse as follows: one-third of the shares of Restricted
Stock shall vest as of each of the first three anniversaries of the Effective
Date (the "Vesting Dates"); provided that, except as provided in Section 3
below, the Executive is employed by the Company on the applicable Vesting Date.
The Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall be registered in the Executive's

Restricted Stock shall be retained by the Company during the period prior to the

                                        3

<PAGE>

         3.       Termination of Employment. If prior to the expiration of the
                  -------------------------
Restricted Period, the Executive's employment with the Company is terminated for
any reason, all vesting with respect to the Restricted Stock shall cease, any
unvested Restricted Stock shall be canceled and forfeited back to the Company,
and the Executive shall have no further rights with respect to such Restricted
Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company terminates the
Executive's employment other than for Cause, or the Executive terminates his
employment for Good Reason, on or before the first Vesting Date, the Executive
shall become immediately vested in 43,044 shares of Restricted Stock (or
one-third of such shares granted pursuant to Section 2(a), if different), and
upon such a termination after the first Vesting Date and prior to the complete
vesting of all Restricted Stock, the Executive shall become immediately vested
in such number of unvested shares of Restricted Stock that equals the product of
(i) 43,044 (or one-third of such shares granted pursuant to Section 2(a), if
different), and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
from the immediately preceding Vesting Date through the date on which the
Executive was terminated and the denominator of which is 365.

         4.       Special Tax Election.
                  --------------------

         (a)      Under Section 83 of the Code, the excess of the Fair Market
Value of the Restricted Stock on the date any forfeiture restrictions applicable
to such shares lapse over the purchase price paid for those shares will be
reportable as ordinary income on the lapse date. For this purpose, the term
"forfeiture restrictions" includes vesting provisions applicable to the
Restricted Stock. The Executive may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to be
taxed at the time the Restricted Stock is acquired, rather than when and as such
Restricted Stock cease to be subject to such forfeiture restrictions. Such
election must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days after
the date of this Agreement is executed.

         (b)      THE FORM FOR MAKING THIS ELECTION IS ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT A
HERETO. THE EXECUTIVE UNDERSTANDS THAT FAILURE TO MAKE THIS FILING WITHIN THE
APPLICABLE 30 DAY PERIOD WILL RESULT IN THE RECOGNITION OF ORDINARY INCOME AS
THE FORFEITURE RESTRICTIONS LAPSE.

         (c)      THE EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE EXECUTIVE'S SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY'S, TO FILE A TIMELY ELECTION UNDER SECTION
83(b) OF THE CODE, EVEN IF THE EXECUTIVE REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS
REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON HIS OR HER BEHALF.

         5.       Limitation of Rights; Dividend Equivalents. The Executive
                  ------------------------------------------
shall not have any right to transfer any rights under the Restricted Stock
Award, shall not have any rights of ownership in the shares of the Common Stock
subject to the Restricted Stock Award prior to the issuance of such shares, and
shall not have any right to vote such shares. The Executive will, however,
receive a cash payment equal to the cash dividends paid on the vested shares
underlying the Restricted Stock Award when cash dividends are paid to
shareholders of the Company.

                                        4

<PAGE>

         6.       Administration. This Agreement shall be administered by the
                  --------------
Committee. The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any provision
herein and any determination by the Committee pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement shall be final and conclusive. No member of the Committee shall be
liable to any person for any such action taken or determination made in good
faith.

         7.       Transferability. The Common Stock subject to the Restricted
                  ---------------
Stock Award and awarded pursuant to this Agreement shall not, at any time prior
to becoming vested, be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or
disposed of in any manner.

         8.       Adjustments. The number of shares covered by the Restricted
                  -----------
Stock Award and, if applicable, the kind of shares covered by the Restricted
Stock Award shall be adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, or
combination of shares of the Common Stock. In addition, the Committee may make
or provide for such adjustment in the number of shares covered by the Restricted
Stock Award and the kind of shares covered by the Restricted Stock Award, as the
Committee in its sole discretion may in good faith determine to be equitably
required in order to prevent dilution, diminution or enlargement of the
Executive's rights that otherwise would result from (a) any exchange of shares
of the Common Stock, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure
of the Company, (b) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, spin-out, split-off,
split-up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution
of assets (other than a normal cash dividend), 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 may provide in substitution for the
Restricted Stock Award such alternative consideration as it may in good faith
determine to be equitable under the circumstances and may require in connection
therewith the surrender of the Restricted Stock Award so replaced.

         9.       Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue
                  -----------------
any fractional shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to this Agreement,
and the Committee may round fractions down.

         10.      Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold
                  -----
federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any benefit realized
by the Executive or any other person under this Agreement, it shall be a
condition to the realization of such benefit that the Executive or such other
person make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of all such
taxes required to be withheld, which arrangements may include the Executive's
delivery to the Company of a check equal to the amount of such taxes, and/or
withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares of Common Stock that would
otherwise be issuable to the Executive as a result of the lapse of the shares
subject to the Restricted Stock Award. The foregoing to the contrary
notwithstanding, if the Executive determines that there is an insufficient
public market to sell in a single block on the day of placing a sale order, or
no public market, at Fair Market Value, vested shares of Common Stock granted
under this Restricted Stock Award to pay his anticipated federal, state or local
income taxes on such Restricted Stock Award (which taxes shall be deemed to be
determined at the maximum marginal rate of tax then applicable to individuals),
then upon such lapse of restrictions the Executive may in his sole discretion
tender a number of such shares to the Company having an aggregate Fair Market
Value equal to such tax liability and the Company shall pay such tax liability
to the tax

                                        5

<PAGE>

authorities as a withholding tax. Upon the payment of any dividend equivalents
payable pursuant to Paragraph 5 above, the Executive agrees that the Company
shall deduct therefrom such amounts as are necessary to satisfy applicable
withholding requirements.

         11.      Compliance with Laws; Legend on Certificates. The obligation
                  --------------------------------------------
of the Company to make payment of the Common Stock subject to the Restricted
Stock Award shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and
to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. In addition, the
certificates representing the vested Restricted Stock delivered to the Executive
as contemplated by Section 2 above shall be subject to such stop transfer orders
and other restrictions as the Company may deem advisable under the rules,
regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
any stock exchange upon which the Restricted Stock is listed, and any applicable
federal or state laws, and the Company may cause a legend or legends to be put
on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

         12.      No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall
                  ----------------------------
confer upon any person or entity not a party to this Agreement, or the legal
representatives of such person or entity, any rights or remedies of any nature
or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

         13.      No Impact on Other Benefits and Employment. This Agreement
                  ------------------------------------------
shall not confer upon the Executive any right with respect to continuance of
employment or other service with the Company and shall not interfere in any way
with any right that the Company would otherwise have to terminate the
Executive's employment at any time, subject to the terms of the Employment
Agreement between the Company and the Executive, dated January 31, 2002 (the
"Employment Agreement"). Nothing herein contained shall affect the Executive's
right to participate in and receive benefits under and in accordance with the
then current provisions of any pension, insurance or other employment plan or
program of the Company or any of its subsidiaries nor constitute an obligation
for continued employment.

         14.      Cancellation. With the Executive's concurrence, the Committee
                  ------------
may cancel this Agreement. In the event of such cancellation, the Committee may
authorize the granting of a new restricted stock award, which may or may not
cover the same number of shares that had been the subject of the Restricted
Stock Award, and subject to such other terms and conditions as then determined
by the Committee.

         15.      Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
                  ------------------------------

         (a)      The validity, construction and effect of this Agreement will
be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Virginia, without
regard to its conflicts of laws rules to the extent such laws are not preempted
by federal bankruptcy law.

         (b)      The parties hereby (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the courts of the State of Virginia and the U.S. federal courts in the Eastern
District of Virginia, provided that until the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy
Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction for any action or proceeding relating to
this Agreement, (ii) consent that any such action or proceeding may be brought
in any such venue, (iii) waive any objection that any such action or proceeding,
if

                                        6

<PAGE>

brought in any such venue, was brought in any inconvenient forum and agree not
to claim the same, and (iv) agree that any judgment in any such action or
proceeding may be enforced in other jurisdictions.

         16.      Merger Clause. This Agreement supersedes any and all
                  -------------
understandings between the Company and the Executive with respect to the
Restricted Stock Award, except in the case of an inconsistency with terms and
conditions expressly provided in the Employment Agreement, in which case such
Employment Agreement terms and conditions will govern, and, except as otherwise
provided herein, this Agreement may be amended only in writing signed by the
Company and Executive.

                                        7

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as
