<PAGE>

     3.2 Authority of the Board. The Board shall have full and exclusive
discretionary power to interpret the Plan and to determine eligibility for
Awards and to adopt such rules, regulations, and guidelines for administering
the Plan as the Board may deem necessary or proper. Such authority shall
include, but not be limited to, selecting Award recipients, establishing all
Award terms and conditions and, subject to Article 17, adopting modifications
and amendments to the Plan or any Award Agreement, including without limitation,
any that are necessary to comply with the laws of the countries in which the
Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries operate.

     3.3 Delegation. The Board may delegate to a Committee any or all of the
administration of the Plan. The members of the Committee shall be appointed from
time to time by, and shall serve at the discretion of, the Board. To the extent
that the Board has delegated to the Committee any authority and responsibility
under the Plan, all applicable references to the Board in the Plan shall be to

deem advisable, and the Board or any person to whom it has delegated duties as

responsibility the Board or such person may have under the Plan. The Board may,
by resolution, authorize one or more officers of the Company to do one or both
of the following: (a) designate officers and Employees of the Company, its
Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries to be recipients of Awards; and (b)
determine the size of the Award; provided, however, that the resolution
providing such authorization sets forth the total number of Awards such officer
or officers may grant.

Article 4. Shares Subject to the Plan and Maximum Awards

     4.1 Number of Shares Available for Awards. Subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 4.2 herein, the number of Shares hereby reserved for
issuance to Participants under the Plan shall be twenty-five million
(25,000,000). All of the reserved Shares may be used as ISOs. Any Shares of
common stock related to Awards which terminate by expiration, forfeiture,
cancellation, or otherwise without the issuance of such Shares, are settled in
cash in lieu of common stock, or are exchanged with the Board's permission for
Awards not involving common stock, shall be available again for grant under the
Plan. Moreover, if the Option Price of any Option granted under the Plan or the
tax withholding requirements with respect to any Award granted under the Plan
are satisfied by tendering Shares of common stock to the Company (by either
actual delivery or by attestation), only the number of Shares of common stock
issued net of the Shares of common stock tendered will be deemed delivered for
purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares of common stock available
for delivery under the Plan. The maximum number of Shares available for issuance
under the Plan shall not be reduced to reflect any dividends or dividend
equivalents that are reinvested into additional Shares of common stock or
credited as additional Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, or Performance
Shares. In addition, the Board, in its discretion, may establish any other
appropriate methodology for calculating the number of Shares issued pursuant to
the Plan. The Shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan may
be authorized and unissued Shares or treasury Shares.

     Unless and until the Board determines that an Award to a Covered Employee
shall not be designed to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the
following limits ("Award Limits") shall apply to grants of such Awards under the
Plan:

                                       5

               form of Stock Appreciation Rights, pursuant to any Award granted

               hundred thousand (500,000).

          (c)  Restricted Stock/Restricted Stock Units: The maximum aggregate

          (d)  Performance Units/Performance Shares: The maximum aggregate Award
               of Performance Units or Performance Shares that a Participant may
               receive in any one Fiscal Year shall be five hundred thousand
               (500,000) Shares, or equal to the value of five hundred thousand
               (500,000) Shares determined as of the date of vesting or payout,
               as applicable.

          (e)  Cash-Based Awards: The maximum aggregate amount awarded or
               credited with respect to Cash-Based Awards to any one Participant
               in any one Fiscal Year may not exceed three million dollars
               ($3,000,000) determined as of the date of vesting or payout, as
               applicable.

          (f)  Annual Management Incentive Award. The maximum aggregate amount
               awarded or credited in any one Fiscal Year with respect to an
               Annual Management Incentive Award to a Participant who is a
               Covered Employee shall be determined in accordance with Article
               12. The maximum aggregate amount awarded or credited in any one
               Fiscal Year with respect to an Annual Management Incentive Award
               to a Participant who is not a Covered Employee shall be
               determined by the Board in its discretion.

     4.2 Adjustments in Authorized Shares. In the event of any corporate event
or transaction (including, but not limited to, a change in the Shares of the
Company or the capitalization of the Company) such as a merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization, separation, stock dividend, stock split,
reverse stock split, split up, spin-off, or other distribution of stock or
property of the Company, combination of shares, exchange of shares, dividend in
kind, or other like change in capital structure or distribution (other than
normal cash dividends) to stockholders of the Company, or any similar corporate
event or transaction, the Board, in its sole discretion, in order to prevent
dilution or enlargement of Participants' rights under the Plan, shall substitute
or adjust, in an equitable manner, as applicable, the number and kind of Shares
that may be issued under the Plan, the number and kind of Shares subject to
outstanding Awards, the Option Price applicable to outstanding Awards, the Award
Limits, and other value determinations applicable to outstanding Awards.

     Appropriate adjustments may also be made by the Board in the terms of any
Awards under the Plan to reflect such changes or distributions and to modify any
other terms of outstanding Awards on an equitable basis, including modifications
of performance goals and changes in the length of

                                       6

<PAGE>

Performance Periods. The determination of the Board as to the foregoing
adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on Participants under the
Plan.

     Subject to the provisions of Article 16, without affecting the number of
Shares reserved or available hereunder the Board may authorize the issuance or

consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization upon such
terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate.

Article 5. Eligibility and Participation

     5.1 Eligibility. Persons eligible to participate in this Plan include all
Employees and Directors.

Article 6. Stock Options

     6.1 Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan,
Options may be granted to Participants in such number, and upon such terms, and
at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Board, provided
that ISOs shall not be granted to Directors. In addition, ISOs may not be
granted following the ten-year anniversary of the Board's adoption of the Plan,
which is June 17, 2002.

Agreement that shall specify the Option Price, the duration of the Option, the
number of Shares to which the Option pertains, the conditions upon which an
Option shall become vested and exercisable, and such other provisions as the
Board shall determine which are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. The
Award Agreement also shall specify whether the Option is intended to be an ISO
or an NQSO.

     6.3 Option Price. The Option Price for each grant of an Option under this
Plan shall be as determined by the Board; provided, however, the Option Price
shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of

Options granted to Participants outside the United States, the Board has the
authority to grant Options at a price that is less than the Fair Market Value of
the Shares on the date of grant.

     6.4 Duration of Options. Each Option granted to a Participant shall expire
at such time as the Board shall determine at the time of grant; provided,
however, no Option shall be exercisable later than the tenth (10th) anniversary
date of its grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for Options granted to
Participants outside the United States, the Board has the authority to grant
Options that have a term greater than ten years.

     6.5 Exercise of Options. Options granted under this Article 6 shall be

     6.6 Payment. Options granted under this Article 6 shall be exercised by the
delivery of a written notice of exercise to the Company, setting forth the
number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised,
accompanied by full payment for the Shares.

     The Option Price upon exercise of any Option shall be payable to the
Company in full either: (a) in cash or its equivalent, (b) by tendering (either
by actual delivery or attestation) previously acquired Shares having an
aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total Option
Price (provided that the Shares that are tendered must have been held by the
Participant for at least six (6) months prior to their tender to satisfy the
Option Price or have been purchased on the open market), (c) by a combination of
(a) and (b), or (d) any other method approved by the Board in its sole
discretion at the time of grant and as set forth in the Award Agreement.

     The Board also may allow cashless exercise as permitted under the Federal
Reserve Board's Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law restrictions,
or by any other means which the Board determines to be consistent with the
Plan's purpose and applicable law.

     Subject to any governing rules or regulations, as soon as practicable after
receipt of a written notification of exercise and full payment, the Company
shall deliver to the Participant, Share certificates or evidence of book entry
Shares, in an appropriate amount based upon the number of Shares purchased under
the Option(s).

     Unless otherwise determined by the Board, all payments under all of the
methods indicated above shall be paid in United States dollars.

     6.7 Restrictions on Share Transferability. The Board may impose such
restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option
granted under this Article 6 as it may deem advisable, including, without
limitation, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the
requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then
listed and/or traded, and under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable
to such Shares.

     6.8 Termination of Employment/Directorship. Each Participant's Award
Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the
right to exercise the Option following termination of the Participant's
employment or directorship with the Company, its Affiliates, and/or its
Subsidiaries, as the case may be. Such provisions shall be determined in the
sole discretion of the Board, shall be included in the Award Agreement entered
into with each Participant, need not be uniform among all Options issued
pursuant to this Article 6, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons
for termination.

               alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of

make any disposition of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive
Stock Option under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code
(relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), such Participant shall notify
the Company of such disposition within ten (10) days thereof.

Article 7. Stock Appreciation Rights

     7.1 Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan,
Freestanding SARs may be granted to Participants at any time and from time to
time as shall be determined by the Board.

     Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Board shall have
complete discretion in determining the number of SARs granted to each
Participant and, consistent with the provisions of the Plan, in determining the
terms and conditions pertaining to such SARs.

     The grant price of a Freestanding SAR shall be no less than the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the date of grant of the SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
for SARs granted to Participants outside the United States, the Board has the
authority to grant SARs at a price that is less than the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the date of grant.

     7.2 SAR Agreement. Each SAR Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement
that shall specify the grant price, the term of the SAR, and such other
provisions as the Board shall determine.

     7.3 Term of SARs. The term of an SAR granted under the Plan shall be
determined by the Board, in its sole discretion, and except as determined
otherwise by the Board and specified in the SAR Award Agreement, no SAR shall be
exercisable later than the tenth (10th) anniversary date of its grant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for SARs granted to Participants outside the
United States, the Board has the authority to grant SARs that have a term
greater than ten years.

     7.4 Exercise of Freestanding SARs. Freestanding SARs may be exercised upon
whatever terms and conditions the Board, in its sole discretion, imposes upon
them.

     7.5 Payment of SAR Amount. Upon the exercise of an SAR, a Participant shall
be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by
multiplying:

          (a)  The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the
               date of exercise over the grant price; by

          (b)  The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.

     At the discretion of the Board, the payment upon SAR exercise may be in
cash, in Shares of equivalent value, in some combination thereof, or in any
other manner approved by the Board at its sole discretion. The Board's
determination regarding the form of SAR payout shall be set forth in the Award
Agreement pertaining to the grant of the SAR.

     7.6 Termination of Employment/Directorship. Each Award Agreement shall set
forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise the
SAR following termination of the Participant's employment or directorship with
the Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be. Such
provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Board, shall be
included in the Award Agreement entered into with Participants, need not be
uniform among all SARs issued pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions
based on the reasons for termination.

     7.7 Nontransferability of SARs. Except as otherwise provided in a
Participant's Award Agreement, no SAR granted under the Plan may be sold,
transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other
than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, except as
otherwise provided in a Participant's Award Agreement, all SARs granted to a
Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only
by such Participant.

the Plan, the Board, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of

as the Board shall determine. Restricted Stock Units shall be similar to
Restricted Stock except that no Shares are actually awarded to the Participant
on the date of grant.

     8.2 Restricted Stock/Unit Agreement. Each Restricted Stock and/or
Restricted Stock Unit grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall
specify the Period(s) of Restriction, the number of Shares of Restricted Stock
or the number of Restricted Stock Units granted, and such other provisions as
the Board shall determine.

     8.3 Transferability. Except as provided in this Article 8, the Shares of

conditions, as specified by the Board in its sole discretion and set forth in
the Award Agreement. All rights with respect to the Restricted Stock and/or
Restricted Stock Units granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be
available during his or her lifetime only to such Participant.

                                       10

<PAGE>

     8.4 Other Restrictions. The Board shall impose such other conditions and/or
restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted
pursuant to the Plan as it may deem advisable including, without limitation, a
requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase price for each Share of
Restricted Stock or each Restricted Stock Unit, restrictions based upon the
achievement of specific performance goals, time-based restrictions on vesting
following the attainment of the performance goals, time-based restrictions,
and/or restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws.

have been satisfied or lapse.

     Except as otherwise provided in this Article 8, Shares of Restricted Stock
covered by each Restricted Stock Award shall become freely transferable by the
Participant after all conditions and restrictions applicable to such Shares have
been satisfied or lapse, and Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in cash,
Shares, or a combination of cash and Shares as the Board, in its sole discretion
shall determine.

     8.5 Voting Rights. To the extent permitted or required by law, as
determined by the Board, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted
hereunder may be granted the right to exercise full voting rights with respect
to those Shares during the Vesting Period. A Participant shall have no voting
rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder.

     8.6 Dividends and Other Distributions. During the Vesting Period,
Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units
granted hereunder may, if the Board so determines, be credited with dividends
paid with respect to the underlying Shares or dividend equivalents while they
are so held in a manner determined by the Board in its sole discretion. The
Board may apply any restrictions to the dividends or dividend equivalents that
the Board deems appropriate. The Board, in its sole discretion, may determine
the form of payment of dividends or dividend equivalents, including cash,
Shares, Restricted Stock, or Restricted Stock Units.

     8.7 Termination of Employment/Directorship. Each Award Agreement shall set
forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to retain
Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units following termination of the
Participant's employment or directorship with the Company, its Affiliates,
and/or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be. Such provisions shall be determined
in the sole discretion of the Board, shall be included in the Award Agreement
entered into with each Participant, need not be uniform among all Shares of
Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units issued pursuant to the Plan, and may
reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination.

     8.8 Section 83(b) Election. The Board may provide in an Award Agreement
that the Award of Restricted Stock is conditioned upon the Participant making or
refraining from making an election with respect to the Award under Section 83(b)
of the Code. If a Participant makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the
Code concerning a Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall be required to
promptly file a copy of such election with the Company.

Article 11. Performance Measures

     Unless and until the Board proposes for stockholder vote and the
stockholders approve a change in the general Performance Measures set forth in
this Article 11, the performance goals upon which the payment or vesting of an
Award to a Covered Employee (other than an Annual Management Incentive Award
awarded or credited pursuant to Article 12) that is intended to qualify as
Performance-Based Compensation shall be limited to the following Performance
Measures:

     (a) Net earnings;

                                       13

<PAGE>

    (b) Earnings per share;

    (c) Net sales growth;

    (d) Net income (before or after taxes);

    (e) Net operating profit;

    (f) Return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets,
        capital, equity, or sales);

    (g) Cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free
        cash flow);

    (h) Cash flow return on capital;

    (i) Earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation, and/or
        amortization;

    (j) Gross or operating margins;

    (k) Productivity ratios;

    (l) Share price (including, but not limited to, growth measures and total
        stockholder return);

    (m) Expense targets; and

    (n) Working capital targets.

    Any Performance Measure(s) may be used to measure the performance of the
Company as a whole or any business unit of the Company or any combination
thereof, as the Board may deem appropriate, or any of the above Performance
Measures as compared to the performance of a group of comparator companies, or
published or special index that the Board, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate, or the Company may select Performance Measure (l) above as compared
to various stock market indices. The Board also has the authority to provide for
accelerated vesting of any Award based on the achievement of performance goals
pursuant to the Performance Measures specified in this Article 11.

    The Board may provide in any such Award that any evaluation of performance
may include or exclude any of the following events that occurs during a
Performance Period: (a) asset write-downs, (b) litigation or claim judgments or
settlements, (c) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or
other laws or provisions affecting reported results, (d) accruals for
reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) extraordinary nonrecurring items
as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in
management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations appearing in the Company's annual report to stockholders for the
applicable year, (f) acquisitions or divestitures, and (g) foreign exchange
gains and losses. To the extent such inclusions or exclusions affect Awards to
Covered Employees, they shall be prescribed in a form that meets the
requirements of Code Section 162(m) for deductibility.

    Awards that are designed to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, and
that are held by Covered Employees, may not be adjusted upward (the Board shall
retain the discretion to adjust such Awards downward).

    In the event that applicable tax and/or securities laws change to permit
Board discretion to alter the governing Performance Measures without obtaining
stockholder approval of such changes, the Board shall have sole discretion to
make such changes without obtaining stockholder approval. In addition, in the
event that the Board determines that it is advisable to grant Awards that shall
not qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the Board may make such grants
without satisfying the requirements of Code Section 162(m).

Article 12. Annual Management Incentive Awards

    The Board may designate Company executive officers who are eligible to
receive a monetary payment in any Fiscal Year based on a percentage of an
incentive pool equal to five percent (5%) of

                                       14

<PAGE>

the Company's consolidated operating earnings for the Fiscal Year. The Board
shall allocate an incentive pool percentage to each designated Participant for
each Fiscal Year. In no event may the incentive pool percentage for any one
Participant exceed thirty percent (30%) of the total pool. Consolidated
operating earnings shall mean the consolidated earnings before income taxes of
the Company, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, but shall exclude the effects of Extraordinary Items.

    For purposes of this Article 12, "Extraordinary Items" shall mean (i)
extraordinary, unusual, and/or nonrecurring items of gain or loss; (ii) gains or
losses on the disposition of a business; (iii) changes in tax or accounting
regulations or laws; or (iv) the effect of a merger or acquisition, all of which
must be identified in the audited financial statements, including footnotes, or
Management Discussion and Analysis section of the Company's annual report.

    As soon as possible after the determination of the incentive pool for a
Fiscal Year, the Board shall calculate the Participant's allocated portion of
the incentive pool based upon the percentage established at the beginning of the
Fiscal Year. The Participant's Annual Management Incentive Award then shall be
determined by the Board based on the Participant's allocated portion of the
incentive pool subject to adjustment in the sole discretion of the Board. In no
event may the portion of the incentive pool allocated to a Participant who is a
Covered Employee be increased in any way, including as a result of the reduction
of any other Participant's allocated portion.

Article 13. Beneficiary Designation

    Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary
or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any
benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of his or her death before he or
she receives any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all
prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the
Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing
with the Company during the Participant's lifetime. In the absence of any such
designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid
to the Participant's estate.

Article 14. Deferrals

    The Board may permit or require a Participant to defer such Participant's
receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be
due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise of an Option or SAR, the lapse
or waiver of restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock
Units, or the satisfaction of any requirements or performance goals with respect
to Annual Management Incentive Awards, Performance Shares, Performance Units,
and Cash-Based Awards. If any such deferral election is required or permitted,
the Board shall, in its sole discretion, establish rules and procedures for such
payment deferrals.

Article 15. Rights of Employees/Directors

    15.1 Employment/Directorship. Nothing in the Plan or an Award Agreement
shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate
any Participant's employment or other service relationship at any time, nor
confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the capacity in which he or
she is employed or otherwise serves the Company.

    Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute
part of an employment contract with the Company, its Affiliates, and/or
Subsidiaries and, accordingly, subject to Article 3

                                       15

<PAGE>

and Section 17.1, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any
time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Board without giving rise to
liability on the part of the Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries
for severance payments.

    15.2 Participation. No Employee or Director shall have the right to be
selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so selected, to be
selected to receive a future Award.

    15.3 Rights as a Stockholder. A Participant shall have none of the rights of
a stockholder with respect to Shares covered by any Award until the Participant
becomes the record holder of such Shares.

Article 16. Change in Control

    16.1 Change in Control of the Company. Upon the occurrence of a Change in

            shall have until the earlier of: (i) twelve (12) months following

                    goals and upon the length of time within the Performance
                    Period that has elapsed prior to the Change in Control. The

                     upon the length of time within the Performance Period that
                     has elapsed prior to the termination of employment. The
                     Board has the authority to pay all or any portion of the
                     value of the Shares in cash.

                    termination of employment, with the proration determined as
                    a function of the length of time within the Performance
                    Period that has elapsed prior to the termination of
                    employment, and based on an assumed achievement of all

segment of the Company and its subsidiaries if the gross revenue of the segment
exceeds twenty percent (20%) of the consolidated gross revenues of the Company
and its subsidiaries for the immediately prior fiscal year. A cessation of
operation of a division shall not constitute a sale. For the purpose of this
Section 16.2, subsidiaries means ownership, directly or indirectly, by the
Company, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting shares or
the total combined voting power of any corporation, partnership, joint venture,
limited liability company, or other entity (other than the Company) in an

Article 17. Amendment, Modification, Suspension, and Termination

    17.1 Amendment, Modification, Suspension, and Termination. The Board may, at
any time and from time to time, alter, amend, modify, suspend, or terminate the
Plan in whole or in part. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
without the prior approval of the Company's stockholders, Options issued under
the Plan will not be repriced, replaced, or regranted through cancellation, or
by lowering the exercise price of a previously granted Option. No amendment of
the Plan shall be made without stockholder approval if stockholder approval is
required by law, regulation, or stock exchange rule.

    17.2 Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or
Nonrecurring Events. The Board may make adjustments in the terms and conditions
of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or
nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events described in
Section 4.2 hereof) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the
Company or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles,
whenever the Board determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to
prevent unintended dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits
intended to be made available under the Plan. The determination of the Board as
to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on
Participants under the Plan.

    17.3 Awards Previously Granted. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan to the contrary, no termination, amendment, suspension, or modification of
the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted
under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant holding such
Award.

Article 18. Withholding

    18.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to
deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, the
minimum statutory amount to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or
foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any
taxable event arising as a result of this Plan.

    18.2 Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the
exercise of Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock
and Restricted Stock Units, or upon the achievement of performance goals related
to Performance Shares, or any other taxable event arising

                                       18

<PAGE>

as a result of Awards granted hereunder, Participants may elect, subject to the
approval of the Board, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in
part, by having the Company withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value on the
date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that
could be imposed on the transaction. All such elections shall be irrevocable,
made in writing, and signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any
restrictions or limitations that the Board, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate.

Article 19. Indemnification

    Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Board, or a Committee
appointed by the Board, or an officer of the Company to whom authority was
delegated in accordance with Article 3 shall be indemnified and held harmless by
the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be
imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or
resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be
a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or
failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by
him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company's approval, or paid by him or
her in satisfaction of any judgement in any such action, suit, or proceeding
against him or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at
its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to
handle and defend it on his or her own behalf, unless such loss, cost,
liability, or expense is a result of his or her own willful misconduct or except
as expressly provided by statute.

    The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other
rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or
otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them
harmless.

Article 20. Successors

    All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to Awards granted
hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the
existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase,
merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company.

Article 21. General Provisions

    21.1 Forfeiture Events. The Board may specify in an Award Agreement that the
Participant's rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award shall be
subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the
occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable
vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events shall include, but
shall not be limited to, termination of employment for cause, violation of
material Company, Affiliate, and/or Subsidiary policies, breach of
noncompetition, confidentiality, or other restrictive covenants that may apply
to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to
the business or reputation of the Company, its Affiliates, or its Subsidiaries.

    21.2 Legend. The certificates for Shares may include any legend which the
Board deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer of such Shares.

                                       19

<PAGE>

    21.3 Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any
masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine, the plural shall
include the singular, and the singular shall include the plural.

    21.4 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held
illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect
the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as
if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

    21.5 Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares
under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations,
and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities
exchanges as may be required. The Company shall receive the consideration
required by law for the issuance of Awards under the Plan.

    21.6 Securities Law Compliance. With respect to Insiders, transactions under
this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or
its successor under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the Plan or
action by the Board fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the
extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board.

    21.7 Listing. The Company may use reasonable endeavors to register Shares
allotted pursuant to the exercise of an Award with the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission or to effect compliance with the registration,
qualification, and listing requirements of any national securities laws, stock
exchange, or automated quotation system.

    21.8 Delivery of Title. The Company shall have no obligation to issue or
deliver evidence of title for Shares issued under the Plan prior to:

        (a) Obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company
            determines are necessary or advisable; and

        (b) Completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares
            under any applicable national or foreign law or ruling of any
            governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or
            advisable.

    21.9 Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain
authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is
deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale
of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect
of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority
shall not have been obtained.

    21.10 Investment Representations. The Board may require each person
receiving Shares pursuant to an Award under this Plan to represent and warrant
in writing that the Participant is acquiring the Shares for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares.

    21.11 Employees Based Outside of the United States. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other
countries in which the Company, its Affiliates, and its Subsidiaries operate or
have Employees or Directors, the Board, in their sole discretion, shall have the
power and authority to:

                                        20

<PAGE>

        (a) Determine which Affiliates and Subsidiaries shall be covered by the
            Plan;

        (b) Determine which Employees or Directors outside the United States are
            eligible to participate in the Plan;

        (c) Modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Employees or
            Directors outside the United States to comply with applicable
            foreign laws;

        (d) Establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms
            and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or
            advisable. Any subplans and modifications to Plan terms and
            procedures established under this Section 21.11 by the Board shall
            be attached to this Plan document as appendices; and

        (e) Take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems
            advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local
            government regulatory exemptions or approvals.

    Notwithstanding the above, the Board may not take any actions hereunder, and
no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Exchange Act, the Code, any
securities law, or governing statute or any other applicable law.

    21.12 Uncertificated Shares. To the extent that the Plan provides for
issuance of certificates to reflect the transfer of Shares, the transfer of such
Shares may be effected on a noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited
by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange.

    21.13 Unfunded Plan. Participants shall have no right, title, or interest
whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company may make to aid it in
meeting its obligations under the Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan, and no
action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create
a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any
Participant, beneficiary, legal representative, or any other person. To the
extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company
under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured
general creditor of the Company. All payments to be made hereunder shall be paid
from the general funds of the Company and no special or separate fund shall be
established and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such
amounts except as expressly set forth in the Plan.

    The Plan is not intended to be subject to ERISA.

    21.14 No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or
delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award. The Board shall determine whether
cash, Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional
Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be
forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

    21.15 Governing Law. The Plan and each Award Agreement shall be governed by
the laws of the State of Illinois, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule
or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of the
Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction. Unless otherwise provided
in the Award Agreement, recipients of an Award under the Plan are deemed to

                                       21

<PAGE>

submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal or state courts of
Illinois, to resolve any and all issues that may arise out of or relate to the
Plan or any related Award Agreement.
