Effective  Date  and  each  individual  who  becomes  a  Director  or Consultant
thereafter  during  the  term  of  this  Plan,  shall  be  a  participant  (the
"Participant")  in this Plan, in each case during such period as such individual
remains a Director or Consultant and is not an employee of the Company or any of
its  subsidiaries.  Each  credit  of shares of the Common Stock pursuant to this
Plan shall be evidenced by a written agreement duly executed and delivered by or
on  behalf of the Company and a Participant, if such an agreement is required by
the  Company  to  assure  compliance  with  all applicable laws and regulations.

     5.   Grants  of  Shares.  Commencing  on  the Effective Date, the amount of
          ------------------
compensation  for service to directors or consultants shall be payable in shares
of  the  Common  Stock (the "Stock Retainer") pursuant to this Plan.  The deemed
issuance  price  of  shares  of  the Common Stock subject to each Stock Retainer
shall  not  be less than 85 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
on  the  date  of  the  grant.  In  the  case  of any person who owns securities
possessing  more than ten percent of the combined voting power of all classes of
securities  of the issuer or its parent or subsidiaries possessing voting power,
the  deemed  issuance  price of shares of the Common Stock subject to each Stock
Retainer  shall  be  at least 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock  on  the  date  of  the  grant.

     6.   Deferral Option.  From and after the Effective Date, a Participant may
          ---------------
make an election (a "Deferral Election") on an annual basis to defer delivery of
the Stock Retainer specifying which one of the following ways the Stock Retainer
is to be delivered (a) on the date which is three years after the Effective Date
for  which  it was originally payable (the "Third Anniversary"), (b) on the date
upon  which the Participant ceases to be a Director or Consultant for any reason
(the  "Departure  Date")  or (c) in five equal annual installments commencing on
the  Departure  Date  (the  "Third  Anniversary" and "Departure Date" each being
referred  to  herein as a "Delivery Date").  Such Deferral Election shall remain
in  effect  for each Subsequent Year unless changed, provided that, any Deferral
Election  with  respect  to  a  particular Year may not be changed less than six
months  prior to the beginning of such Year, and provided, further, that no more
than  one  Deferral  Election  or  change  thereof  may  be  made  in  any Year.

                                        2
<PAGE>
     Any Deferral Election and any change or revocation thereof shall be made by
delivering  written  notice  thereof  to  the Committee no later than six months
prior to the beginning of the Year in which it is to be effected; provided that,
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  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 the 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  Paragraph  8 hereof, 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
the  Common Stock equal to (a) the number of shares of the 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  the  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 Paragraph 8
as  soon as practicable after the applicable Delivery Date.  Except with respect
to  a  Deferral  Election  pursuant  to  Paragraph  6 hereof, 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 Paragraph 6 hereof, 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 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 Paragraph 6 hereof 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 the Common Stock needed to fulfill its obligations
under this Paragraph 8.  However, Participants shall have no beneficial or other
interest  in  the Trust and the assets thereof, and their rights under this 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  Paragraph  8.

     9.   Share  Certificates;  Voting  and  Other Rights.  The certificates for
          -----------------------------------------------
shares  delivered to a Participant pursuant to Paragraph 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 stockholder with respect to the
Common Stock for all such shares issued in his 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 this Plan or agreements
made pursuant thereto, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any
certificate or certificates for shares of the Common Stock under this 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;

                                        3
<PAGE>
               (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  this  Plan shall prevent the Company from
adopting  other  or  additional  compensation arrangements for the Participants.

     11.  Shares  Available.  Subject  to Paragraph 12 below, the maximum number
          -----------------
of  shares  of  the  Common  Stock  which  may in the aggregate be paid as Stock
Retainers pursuant to this Plan is 966,664.  Shares of the Common Stock issuable
under this Plan may be taken from treasury shares of the Company or purchased on
the  open  market.

     12.  Adjustments;  Change  of  Control.
          ---------------------------------

          (a)  In  the  event  that there is, at any time after the Board adopts
this  Plan,  any  change  in  corporate  capitalization,  such as a stock split,
combination  of  shares,  exchange  of  shares,  warrants  or rights offering to
purchase  the  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, stock dividend, 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  the Common Stock held in such Deferred Stock Account had
such  shares of the Common Stock been outstanding as of the effectiveness of any
such  Transaction,  (ii) the number and kind of shares or other property subject
to  this  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 this Plan and any such
modification  by  the  Committee shall be binding and conclusive on all persons.

          (b)  If  the shares of the Common Stock credited to the Deferred Stock
Accounts  are  converted  pursuant  to  Paragraph  12(a)  into  another  form of
property,  references  in  this  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 this Plan to operate in accordance with its
purposes.  Without  limiting  the  generality  of  the  foregoing, references to
delivery of certificates for shares of the 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 Paragraph 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 the 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 the Common Stock or any
other property held in such Participant's Deferred Stock Account; and (iii) this
Plan  shall  be  terminated.

          (d)  For  purposes  of  this Plan, Change of Control shall mean any of
the  following  events:

               (i)      The  acquisition  by  any  individual,  entity  or group
(within  the  meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange
Act  of  1934,  as  amended  (the  "Exchange  Act"))  (a "Person") of beneficial
ownership  (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act)
of  80  percent  or more of either (1) the then outstanding shares of the Common
Stock  of  the  Company  (the  "Outstanding  Company  Common Stock"), or (2) the
combined  voting  power  of  then  outstanding  voting securities of the Company
entitled  to  vote  generally  in  the  election  of directors (the "Outstanding
Company  Voting Securities"); provided, however, that the following acquisitions

                                        4
<PAGE>
shall  not  constitute a Change of Control (A) any acquisition directly from the
Company  (excluding  an  acquisition  by  virtue of the exercise of a conversion
privilege  unless  the  security being so converted was itself acquired directly
from  the  Company),  (B) any acquisition by 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 Company or (D) any acquisition by
any  corporation  pursuant  to  a  reorganization,  merger or consolidation, if,
following such reorganization, merger or consolidation, the conditions described
in  clauses  (A),  (B)  and  (C)  of paragraph (iii) of this Paragraph 12(d) are
satisfied;  or

               (ii)      Individuals  who, as of the date hereof, constitute the
Board  of  the  Company (as of the date hereof, "Incumbent Board") cease for any
reason  to  constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that
any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election,
or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote
of  at  least  a  majority  of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board
shall  be  considered  as  though such individual were a member of the Incumbent
Board,  but  excluding,  for  this  purpose,  any  such individual whose initial
assumption  of  office  occurs  as  a  result  of either an actual or threatened
election  contest  (as  such  terms  are  used  in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A
promulgated  under  the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation
of  proxies  or  consents  by  or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

               (iii)     Approval  by  the  stockholders  of  the  Company  of a
reorganization,  merger,  binding  share  exchange  or  consolidation,  unless,
following  such  reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation
(A)  more  than  60  percent of, respectively, then outstanding shares of common
stock  of  the  corporation  resulting from such reorganization, merger, binding
share  exchange  or  consolidation  and  the  combined  voting  power  of  then
outstanding  voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by
all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial
owners,  respectively,  of  the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding
Company  Voting  Securities  immediately  prior  to such reorganization, merger,
binding share exchange or consolidation in substantially the same proportions as
their ownership, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, binding share
exchange  or  consolidation,  of  the  Outstanding  Company  Common  Stock  and
Outstanding  Company  Voting  Securities,  as  the  case  may be, (B) at least a
majority  of  the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting
from  such  reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation were
members  of  the  Incumbent  Board  at  the time of the execution of the initial
agreement  providing  for such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or
consolidation;  or

               (iv)      Approval  by  the  stockholders of the Company of (1) a
complete  liquidation  or  dissolution  of the Company, or (2) the sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, other than
to  a  corporation,  with  respect  to  which  following  such  sale  or  other
disposition,  (A) more than 60 percent of, respectively, then outstanding shares
of  common  stock  of  such  corporation  and  the combined voting power of then
outstanding  voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by
all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial
owners,  respectively,  of  the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding
Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in
substantially  the same proportion as their ownership, immediately prior to such
sale  or  other  disposition,  of  the  Outstanding  Company  Common  Stock  and
Outstanding  Company  Voting  Securities,  as  the  case  may be, (B) at least a
majority  of  the  members  of  the  board of directors of such corporation were
members  of  the  Incumbent  Board  at  the time of the execution of the initial
agreement or action of the Board providing for such sale or other disposition of
assets  of  the  Company.

and  to  the extent required for this Plan to comply with Rule 16b-3 promulgated
under  the  Exchange Act, no amendment to this Plan shall be made more than once
in  any  six  month  period that would change the amount, price or timing of the
grants  of  the Common Stock hereunder other than to comport with changes in the
Code,  the  Employee  Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the
regulations  thereunder. The Board may terminate this Plan at any time by a vote
of  a  majority  of  the  members  thereof.

     14.  Restrictions  on  Transfer.  Each Stock Option granted under this Plan

determining  whether  such  approval  is  obtained.

     17.  Governing  Law.  This  Plan  and all actions taken thereunder shall be

governed  by,  and  construed  in  accordance  with,  the  laws  of the State of

stockholders  or to limit the rights of the stockholders to remove any Director.

          (b)  The  Company  shall  have  the  right  to  require,  prior to the

withholding  of  any  taxes  required  by law to be withheld with respect to the
issuance  or  delivery  of  such  shares,  including, without limitation, by the
withholding  of  shares  that  would  otherwise  be  so  issued or delivered, by
