      one of the bases, upon which the Notice of Termination is based), or if such
      benefits are not available or the provision of such benefits would not be
      allowed under the terms of such plans, the Company shall pay Executive the

      becomes eligible to receive, Welfare Benefits from another source, then the
      Welfare Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section
      6(b)(v) shall be reduced to the extent of such other Welfare Benefits received
      by, or made available to, the Executive during the Severance Period (and any
      such Welfare Benefits received by or made available to the Executive shall
      be
      reported to the Company by the Executive).  Nothing herein shall be

      anything to the contrary set forth in Sections 6(b)(i) through (ix) or elsewhere

      separate payments within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue
      Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and the regulations
      thereunder.

      or
      (ii) 2-1/2 months of the end of the Executive's taxable year containing the
      severance from employment shall be exempt from Section 409A and shall be paid
      in
      accordance with Section 6(b).  Severance benefits subject to this
      Section 7(b) shall be treated and shall be deemed to be an entitlement to a
      separate payment within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the
      regulations thereunder.

    


    (c)To
      the extent severance benefits are not exempt from Section 409A under Section

    1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(1)
      and (2) shall be exempt from Section 409A and shall be paid in accordance with
      Section 6(b).  Severance benefits subject to this Section 7(c) shall
      be treated and shall be deemed to be an entitlement to a separate payment within
      the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations
      thereunder.

    


    (d)To
      the extent severance benefits are not exempt from Section 409A under Section
      7(b) or 7(c) above, any benefits paid equal to or less than the applicable
      dollar amount under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code for the year of severance
      from employment shall be exempt from Section 409A in accordance with Treasury
      Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(D) and shall be paid in accordance with

      "specified employee" (as defined below), payments due to the Executive under
      Section 6 shall begin no sooner than six months after the Executive's severance
      from employment (other than for Death); provided, however, that any payments
      not
      made during the six (6) month period described in this Section 7(e) due to
      the
      6-month delay period required under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2)
      shall be made in a single lump sum as soon as administratively practicable
      after
      the expiration of such six (6) month period, with interest thereon computed
      at
      the rate set forth in Section 17 hereof, and the balance of all other payments
      required under this Agreement shall be made as otherwise scheduled in this
      Agreement.

      purposes of this Section 7, any reference to severance of employment or
      termination of employment shall mean a "separation from service" as defined
      in
      Treasury Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h).  For purposes of this Agreement,
      the term "specified employee" shall have the meaning set forth in Treasury
      Reg.
      Section 1.409A-1(i).  The determination of whether the Executive is a
      "specified employee" shall be made by the Employer in good faith applying the
      applicable Treasury regulations.

      gross-up payment shall be made no later than the end of Executive's taxable

      insurance benefits ("Welfare Benefits") substantially similar in all material
      respects to those which the Executive is receiving immediately prior to the
      Date
      of Termination (without giving effect to any adverse amendment to, or
      elimination of, such benefits made after a Change in Control); provided,
      however, if the termination of Executive's employment after a Change in Control
      and during the Agreement Period by the Company without Cause or by Executive
      for
      Good Reason hereunder occurs after Executive has attained the age of 57 years,
      the Welfare Benefits to be provided by the Company shall continue to be provided
      until such time that Executive becomes Medicare eligible and is covered by
      Medicare.  If any such Welfare Benefits are not available or the
      provision of such benefits would not be allowed under the terms of such plans,
      the Company shall pay Executive the after-tax economic equivalent
      thereof.  If the Executive receives, or becomes eligible to receive,
      Welfare Benefits from another source, then the Welfare Benefits otherwise
      receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 6(b)(iv) shall be reduced
      to the extent of such other Welfare Benefits received by, or made available
      to,
      the Executive during the Severance Period (and any such Welfare Benefits
      received by or made available to the Executive shall be reported to the Company
      by the Executive).  Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit
      Executive's rights, if any, to thereafter participate in any retiree medical
      plan then in effect.  Executive covenants and agrees that he shall
      apply for Medicare coverage on his first Medicare eligibility
      date."

      Reg.
      Section 1.409A-1(i).  The determination of whether the Executive is a
      "specified employee" shall be made by the Employer in good faith applying the
      applicable Treasury regulations.

    


    (g)Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, and in addition to any
      tax
      gross-up payments to which Executive may be entitled under any other agreement
      between Executive and Company, if any of the amounts payable to Executive
      hereunder are or become subject to excise or other tax liability (including
      interest and penalties) that may be assessed by the IRS pursuant to Section
      409A
      or any other section of the Code and imposed upon Executive, the Company shall
      reimburse and gross-up Executive in an amount sufficient so that such payments
      and benefits received by Executive hereunder will be so received without
      reduction for any such taxes, interest or penalties.  Such gross-up
      payment shall be made promptly after the assessment of such excise or other
      tax
      liability (including interest and penalties); however, in any event, such
      gross-up payment shall be made no later than the end of Executive's taxable
      year
      next following his taxable year in which the related taxes, interest or
      penalties are remitted."
