##### 



give the individual any right to have any credits made to his or her Account with

    Condition of Participation. As a condition of participation, each Participant
is bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Plan Rules, and must furnish to

and related earnings credits pursuant to Section 3.4.(B)
    
    For each Participant for whom a credit is made pursuant to Section 3.3, the

 2

##### 



equivalent and credited
to his or her Account as of January 1, 2000. The amount credited to the Active
Participants Account pursuant to this section will be the greater of (1) the amount at
which the Participants total share equivalents as of December 31, 1999 were
contingently credited to the Participant under the Deferred Compensation Plan and (2)
an amount equal to the product of (a) the total share equivalents contingently credited
to the Participant under the Deferred Compensation Plan as of December 31, 1999

writing on a form provided by the Administrator and (2) received by the Administrator
not later than a due date specified by the Administrator. The election may be revoked

quarterly equivalent of the average of the annual yield set forth for each month during the
quarter in the Moodys Bond Record, published by Moodys Investors Service, Inc. (or any
successor thereto) under the heading of Moodys Corporate Bond Yield Averages -Av. Corp.
or, if such yield is no longer available, a substantially similar average selected by the
Administrator.3.5

to his or her attainment of age 65 in the case of the Account established and
maintained pursuant to Section 3.1(A), or prior to his or her attainment of age 60 in
the case of the Account established and maintained pursuant to Section 3.1(B), other

nonforfeitable interest in his or her Account to the extent provided in the following
schedule:

her Account established and maintained pursuant to Section 3.1(B) be less than 50

as of the beginning of the day on which he or she terminates employment.(G)

Affiliate on a given date will be based on the Affiliates classification on that date
without regard to any subsequent retroactive reclassification.

 4




---



##### 



(B)
    
    Time. Subject to Subsection (D) and Section 6.3, distribution to a
Participant will begin during the first month of the Plan Year next following the Plan
Year during which occurs the Participant Termination of Employment (other than a
Termination of Employment due to such Participants death).(C)
    
    Amount. The amount of each monthly installment payment will be
determined by dividing the Participants vested Account balance as of the last day of
the calendar quarter immediately preceding the payment date, reduced by the amount of
any subsequent installment payments, by the total number of remaining payments
(including the payment in question).(D)
    
    Special Rules. The provisions of this subsection apply notwithstanding
Subsection (A), (B) or (C) to the contrary.
 (1)
    
    Acceleration. If at any time prior to the date a Participants
distribution commences in accordance with Subsection (B), the Plan fails to
meet the requirements of Section 409A, or regulations issued thereunder, the
Administrator shall cause to be distributed a portion of the Account balance of
any Participant who is required to include in income an amount as a result of
such failure. The amount of such accelerated distribution shall not exceed the
lesser of (a) the amount required to be included in such Participants gross
income as a result of such failure and (b) the unpaid vested Account balance.(2)
    
    Divestitures.
 (a)
    
    If a Change in Control occurs due to some or
all of the assets of a Participating Employer being sold or otherwise
disposed of to an acquirer that is not an Affiliate, the Administrator
shall cause to be distributed the vested Account balance of any
Participant whose employment with all Affiliates is terminated in
connection with the sale or disposition unless the acquirer adopts a
successor plan which is substantially similar to the Plan in all
material respects and expressly assumes the Participating Employers
obligation to provide benefits to the Participant, in which case the
Participating Employer will cease to have any obligation to provide
benefits to the Participant pursuant to the Plan as of the effective
date of the assumption. Any such distribution will be made in the form
of a lump sum payment as soon as administratively practicable after the
date of the Change in Control, and, in any event, within 60 days of the
occurrence of such Change in Control The amount of the payment will be
equal to the Participants vested Account balance as of the last day of
the calendar quarter immediately preceding the payment.(b)
    
    If a Participating Employer ceases to be an
Affiliate, unless otherwise provided in an agreement between an
Affiliate and the
 5

##### 



Participating Employer or an Affiliate and an
acquirer that is not an Affiliate,
 (i)
    
    a Participant who is employed
with the Participating Employer, or(ii)
    
    a Participant who is not employed
with the Participating Employer but has an Account balance
attributable to the Participating Employer
 will not become entitled to his or her Account balance attributable
to the Participating Employer solely as a result of the cessation and
the Participating Employer will, after the date on which it ceases to
be an Affiliated Organization, continue to be solely responsible to
provide benefits to the Participant at least equal to the balance of
the Account as of the effective date of the cessation and as
thereafter increased by credits pursuant to Section 3.2 relating to
the period before the effective date and earnings credits pursuant to
Section 3.4.
 (3)
    
    Certain Forfeitures. The entire balance of a
Participants Account will be permanently forfeited if, without the prior
written consent of the Company, the Participant, at any time prior to his or
her termination of employment or during the period during which he or she is
receiving distributions pursuant to the Plan, actively participates or engages
in any business in competition with any Affiliate or fails to make himself or
herself available for consultation, or if the Participants employment is
terminated at any time prior to age 65 because of evidence of dishonesty or
mistrust in his or her employment or because of his or her involvement in a
crime or misdemeanor against any Affiliate or any employee of an Affiliate
for which the Participant is convicted or which the Participant has
confessed in writing to the Company or any law enforcement agency.
 (E)
    
    Reduction of Account Balance. The balance of the Account from which a
distribution is made will be reduced by the amount of the distribution as of the
beginning of the date of the distribution.
 4.2
    
    Distribution to Beneficiary.
 (A)
    
    Form. In the event of a Participants Termination of Employment due to
his or her death, the balance of the Participants Account will be distributed to the
Participants Beneficiary in a lump sum payment whether or not payments had commenced
to the Participant in the form of installments prior to his or her Termination of
Employment due to his or her death.(B)
    
    Time. Subject to Subsection 4.1(D) and Section 6.3, distribution to a
Beneficiary will be made within 60 days after the end of the calendar quarter in which
the Participants Termination of Employment due to his or her death occurs.
 6




---



##### 



(C)
    
    Amount. The amount of the payment will be equal to the Participants
vested Account balance as of the last day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding
the payment.(D)
    
    Reduction of Account Balance. The balance of the Account from which a
distribution is made will be reduced by the amount of the distribution as of the
beginning of the date of the distribution.(E)
    
    Beneficiary Designation.
 (1)
    
    A Participant may designate, on a form furnished by the
Administrator, one or more primary Beneficiaries or alternative Beneficiaries
to receive all or a specified part of his or her Account after his or her
death, and the Participant may change or revoke any such designation from time
to time. No such designation, change or revocation is effective unless
executed by the Participant and received by the Administrator during the
Participants lifetime. No designation of a Beneficiary other than the
Participants spouse is effective unless the spouse consents to the designation
or the Administrator determines that spousal consent cannot be obtained because
the spouse cannot reasonably be located or is legally incapable of consenting.
The consent must be in writing, must acknowledge the effect of the election and
must be witnessed by a notary public. The consent is
effective only with respect to the Beneficiary or class of Beneficiaries so
designated and only with respect to the spouse who so consented.(2)
    
    If a Participant
 (a)
    
    fails to designate a Beneficiary, or(b)
    
    revokes a Beneficiary designation without
naming another Beneficiary, or(c)
    
    designates one or more Beneficiaries none of
whom survives the Participant or exists at the time in question, for
all or any portion of his or her Account,
 such Account or portion will be paid to the Participants surviving spouse
or, if the Participant is not survived by a spouse, to the representative of
the Participants estate.
 (3)
    
    The automatic Beneficiaries specified above and, unless the
designation otherwise specifies, the Beneficiaries designated by the
Participant, become fixed as of the Participants death so that, if a
Beneficiary survives the Participant but dies before the receipt of the payment
due such Beneficiary, the payment will be made to the representative of such
Beneficiarys estate. Any designation of a Beneficiary by name that is
accompanied by a description of relationship or only by statement of
relationship to the Participant is effective only to designate the
 7

##### 



person or
persons standing in such relationship to the Participant at the Participants
death.
 4.3
    
    Payment in Event of Incapacity. If any individual entitled to receive any
payment under the Plan is, in the judgment of the Administrator, physically, mentally or
legally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of the payment, and no legal
representative has been appointed for the individual, the Administrator may (but is not
required to) cause the payment to be made to any one or more of the following as may be
chosen by the Administrator: the Beneficiary (in the case of the incapacity of a
Participant); the institution maintaining the individual; a custodian for the individual
under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act of any state; or the individuals spouse,
children, parents, or other relatives by blood or marriage. The Administrator is not
required to see to the proper application of any such payment and the payment completely
discharges all claims under the Plan against the Participating Employer, the Plan and Trust
to the extent of the payment.4.4
    
    Effect of Delay or Failure to Ascertain Amount Distributable or to Locate
Distributee.
 (A)
    
    If an amount payable under Article 4 or Article 6 cannot be ascertained or the
person to whom it is payable has not been ascertained or located within the stated
time limits and reasonable efforts to do so have been made, then distribution shall
be made not later than 30 days after such amount is determined or such person is
ascertained or located, or as prescribed in Subsection (B).(B)
    
    If, by fifteenth day of the third month following the calendar year in which a
Participants Termination of Employment occurs, the Administrator, in the exercise of
due diligence, has failed to locate him (or if after a termination of employment by
reason of death, has failed to locate the person entitled to his vested Account balance
under Section 4.2), the Participants entire distributable interest in the Plan shall
be forfeited; provided, however, that if the Participant (or in the case of his death,
the person entitled thereto under Section 4.2) makes proper claim therefor pursuant to
the Plan Rules, the amount so forfeited shall be paid to such Participant or such
person in a lump sum not later than 30 days after such claim is made.
 ARTICLE 5
Source of Payments; Nature of Interest
 5.1
    
    Establishment of Trust.
 (A)
    
    A Participating Employer may establish a Trust, or may be covered by a Trust
established by another Participating Employer, with an independent corporate trustee.
The Trust must (1) be a grantor trust with respect to which the Participating Employer
is treated as the grantor for purposes of Code Section 677, (2) not cause the Plan to
be funded for purposes of Title I of ERISA and (3) provide that the Trust assets will,
upon the insolvency of a Participating
 8

##### 



Employer, be used to satisfy claims of the
Participating Employers general creditors. The Participating
Employers may from time
to time transfer to the Trust cash, marketable securities or other property acceptable
to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Trust.(B)
    
    Notwithstanding Subsection (A), not later than the effective date of a Change
in Control, each Participating Employer must transfer to the Trust an amount not less
than the amount by which (1) 125 percent of the aggregate balance of all Participants
Accounts attributable to the Participating Employer as of the last day of the month
immediately preceding the effective date of the Change in Control exceeds (2) the value
of the Trust assets attributable to amounts previously contributed by the Participating
Employer as of the most recent date as of which such value was determined.
 5.2
    
    Source of Payments.
 (A)
    
    Each Participating Employer will pay, from its general assets, the portion of
any benefit pursuant to Article 4 or Section 6.3 attributable to a Participants
Account
with respect to that Participating Employer, and all costs, charges and expenses
relating thereto.(B)
    
    The Trustee will make distributions to Participants and Beneficiaries from the
Trust in satisfaction of a Participating Employers obligations under the Plan in
accordance with the terms of the Trust. The Participating Employer is responsible for
paying any benefits attributable to a Participants Account with respect to that
Participating Employer that are not paid by the Trust.
 5.3
    
    Status of Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan or Trust is to be construed as
providing for assets to be held for the benefit of any Participant or any other person or
persons to whom benefits are to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Participants
or other persons only interest under the Plan being the right to receive the benefits set
forth herein. The Trust is established only for the convenience of the Participating
Employers and no Participant has any interest in the assets of the Trust. To the extent the
Participant or any other person acquires a right to receive benefits under the Plan, such
right is no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Participating
Employer.The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.5.4
    
    Non-assignability of Benefits. The benefits payable under the Plan and the
right to receive future benefits under the Plan may not be anticipated, alienated, sold,
transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to any charge or legal process.
 ARTICLE 6
Adoption, Amendment, Termination
 6.1
    
    Adoption. With the prior approval of the Administrator, an Affiliate may, by
action of its Board, adopt the Plan and become a Participating Employer.

6.2
    
    Amendment.
 (A)
    
    The Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Company reserves
the right to amend the Plan at any time to any extent that it may deem advisable. To
be effective, an amendment must be stated in a written instrument approved in advance
or ratified by the Compensation and Management Development Committee and executed in

Committee.(B)
    
    An amendment adopted in accordance with Subsection (A) is binding on all
interested parties as of the effective date stated in the amendment; provided, however,
that (1) no amendment may adversely affect a benefit to which a Participant, or the
Beneficiary of a deceased Participant, is entitled under the terms of the Plan as of
the later of the adoption date or effective date of the amendment (2) no amendment may
cause the Plan to fail to meet the requirements of Section 409A with respect to any
Participant without such Participants consent and (3)no attempted amendment to
Section 3.5(D), 5.1(B), this clause (3) or Section 7.8 will be effective with respect
to any Change in Control, as defined in Section 7.8 without regard to the attempted
amendment, occurring within 12 months after the date on which the attempted amendment
is approved by the Compensation and Management Development Committee unless each
Participant provides his or her written consent to the amendment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Compensation and Management Development Committee may amend the Plan at
any time to change the method for determining the earnings credit pursuant to Section
3.4 for the period after the later of the adoption date or effective date of the
amendment, and such amendment may be applied both to future credits to Participants
Accounts pursuant to Section 3.2 and to existing Account balances (but the amendment
may not reduce the balance of any Account as of the later of the adoption date or
effective date of the amendment). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Plan, if and to the extent the Administrator shall determine that the terms of
the Plan may result in the failure of the Plan, or amounts deferred by or for any
Participant under the Plan, to comply with the requirements of Section 409A (to the
extent applicable), the Administrator shall have authority (without any obligation to
do so or to indemnify any Participant for failure to do so) to take such action to
amend, modify, cancel or terminate the Plan or distribute any or all of the amounts
deferred by or for a Participant, or take such other actions as it determines are
necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt any Account from Section 409A and/or preserve
the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Account, or (b)
comply with the requirements of Section 409A and thereby avoid the application of any
penalty taxes under such Section.(C)
    
    Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, if the
Administrator determines that delayed commencement of any portion of the Account
payable to a Specified Employee pursuant to the Plan is required in order to avoid a
prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then no portion of
the Participants Account shall be payable to Participant prior to the

payments deferred pursuant to this Subsection (C) shall be paid in a lump sum to the
Participant within 30 days following such expiration, and any remaining payments due to

written request to a new decision-maker who is not a subordinate of the initial
decision-maker of the claim denial. The claimant is entitled to a new decision on

denial was based on medical judgment, the Administrator must consult with an
independent health care professional who has appropriate training and experience in the
field of medicine. Further, the Administrator must identify the medical or vocational
experts whose advice was obtained regardless of whether the advice was relied upon in
making the decision. The claimant may also submit comments, documents, records, and
other information after the filing of the appeal
that will be considered even if this information was not submitted or considered
during the initial decision. Prior to this hearing, the claimant shall have a
reasonable opportunity to review, upon request and free of charge, pertinent
documents, and records. The Administrator shall communicate the decision to the
claimant within forty-five (45) days after receiving the appeal. This period may be
extended one time for up to forty-five (45) days if the Administrator determines
that such an extension is necessary and the Plan provides an extension notice during
the initial forty-five (45) day period. If an extension is necessary a decision
shall be made within ninety (90) days after the claimant files the claim. If the
Administrator denies the review, the claimant shall be provided with the following
information:
 (1)
    
    The specific reason or reasons for the denial;
 18

(2)
    
    The specific references to the Plan provisions on which the
denial is based;(3)
    
    A statement describing the voluntary appeal procedures;(4)
    
    A statement that the claimant is entitled upon request to
receive, free of charge, all documents, and records relating to the denial;(5)
    
    If the denial was based on an internal rule, guideline,
protocol, or other similar criterion, the specific internal rule, guideline, or
other similar criterion should be provided or a statement that such information
was relied upon and a copy will be provided to the claimant free of charge;(6)
    
    If the decision was based on a medical necessity or
experimental treatment, an explanation of the scientific or clinical judgment
for the denial, applying the terms of the Plan to the claimants medical
circumstances, or a statement that such explanation will be provided free of
charge upon request; and(7)
    
    The claimant and the Plan may have other voluntary alternative
dispute resolution options, such as mediation. One way to find out what may be
