         THIS SPLIT DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made
and entered into as of the _____________ day of ___________________, 2000, by
and between WACHOVIA CORPORATION (the "Corporation"), and
_______________________________________ (the "Owner").

                              Statement of Purpose

         MICKEY W. DRY (the "Executive") is employed by the Corporation as
Senior Executive Vice President. The Corporation, Owner and Executive desire to
insure the lives of Executive and Executive's spouse, DOROTHY K. DRY (the
"Executive's Spouse"), for the benefit and protection of both the Corporation
and the Executive's family under a Variable Survivorship Life Insurance Policy
(the "Policy") to be issued by John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company (the
"Insurer"). The Corporation, as the employer of Executive, is willing to pay a
portion of the premiums due on the Policy as an additional employment benefit
for Executive on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The Corporation
desires to have the Policy collaterally assigned to it by the Owner in order to
secure repayment of the amount due to the Corporation under this Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Statement of Purpose aforesaid
and of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

         1. Definitions. Whenever used in this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the meanings set forth below:

         (a) "Beneficial Owner" shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in
Rule 13d-3 of the general rules and regulations under the Exchange Act.

         (b) "Board of Directors" means the Board of Directors of the
Corporation.

         (c) "Director" means any individual who is a member of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation.

         (d) "Exchange Act" means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended from time to time or any successor act thereto.

         (e) "Person" means any individual, corporation, partnership, group,
association or other person, as such term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) or
Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, other than the Corporation, a subsidiary
of the Corporation or any employee benefit plan(s) sponsored or maintained by
the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof.

         (f) "Change in Control" of the Corporation means, and shall be deemed
to have occurred on the earliest of the following dates:

<PAGE>

                  (i) The date any entity or Person shall have become the
Beneficial Owner of, or shall have obtained voting control over, thirty percent
(30%) or more of the outstanding common stock of the Corporation;

                  (ii) The date the shareholders of the Corporation approve a
definitive agreement (A) to merge or consolidate the Corporation with or into
another corporation, in which the Corporation is not the continuing or surviving
corporation or pursuant to which any abates of common stock of the Corporation
would be converted into cash, securities or other property of another
corporation, other than a merger of the Corporation in which holders of common
stock immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of
common stock of the surviving corporation immediately after the merger as
immediately before, or (B) to sell or otherwise dispose of substantially all the
assets of the Corporation; or

                  (iii) The date there shall have been a change in a majority of
the Board of Directors of the Corporation within a twelve month period unless
the nomination for election by the Corporation's shareholders of each new
Director was approved by the vote of two-thirds of the Directors then still in
office who were in office at the beginning of the twelve month period.

         (g) "Disability" means "disability" as such term is defined from time
to time under any long-term disability plan of the Corporation covering the
Executive.

         2. Purchase of the Policy. The Owner has made application for and has
purchased a Variable Survivorship Life Insurance Policy issued by John Hancock
Variable Life Insurance Company in the initial face amount of Six Million
Dollars ($6,000,000) insuring the lives of Executive and Executive's Spouse, a
copy of which shall be attached hereto as Exhibit 1 as soon as practicable after
issuance by the Insurer. A complete hypothetical illustration of the Policy
assuming a nine percent (9%) gross rate of return over the life of the contract
is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.

         The parties hereto have taken all necessary action to cause Insurer to
issue the Policy and shall take any further action which may be necessary to
cause the Policy to conform to the provisions of this Agreement. The parties
hereto further agree that the Policy shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the Collateral Assignment referred to in
Paragraph 5 below.

         3. Ownership of the Policy. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement
and the Collateral Assignment, the Owner shall be the sole and absolute owner of
the Policy and may and shall exercise all ownership rights granted to the owner
thereof by the terms of the Policy. It is the intention of the parties that the
Owner shall retain all rights which the Policy grants to the owner of the
Policy, except the right of the Corporation to recover the amount due to the
Corporation under this Agreement. Specifically, without limitation, the
Corporation shall neither have nor exercise any right as the collateral assignee
of the Policy which could in any way defeat or impair the Owner's right to
receive the cash surrender value or the death proceeds of the Policy in excess
of the Corporation's Interest (as hereinafter defined). All provisions of this
Agreement and the Collateral Assignment shall be construed so as to carry out
such intention.

                                       2
<PAGE>

         4. Payment of Premiums. As a convenience to the parties, the
Corporation shall pay all premiums under the Policy to the Insurer as and when
such premiums become due. Within thirty (30) days of the first such premium
payment by the Corporation, the Owner shall pay to the Corporation an amount
equal to Nineteen Thousand Nine Hundred and Thirteen Dollars ($19,913.00).
Within thirty (30) days of each anniversary of the effective date of the Policy
thereafter, the Owner shall pay to the Corporation the economic value of the
death benefit under the Policy as determined by the Insurer from time to time
while the Policy remains in effect calculated in accordance with applicable U.S.
Treasury Department rules and regulations. A schedule of the premiums to be paid
by the Owner based on the Insurer's current projections is set forth on Exhibit
2.

         Should actual investment returns vary from those assumed in Exhibit 2,
the Corporation's share of the premiums shall continue to be equal to the
amounts set forth on Exhibit 2 as if no such variation occurred. Any increase or
decrease in the premiums required to provide the total death benefits described
on Exhibit 2 resulting from a variation in investment returns shall affect only
the Owner's share of the premiums, and to the extent the amount paid by the
Owner pursuant to the preceding paragraph is insufficient, the Owner shall pay
to the Corporation any such amount required to make the premium payment in full.

         Upon request by the Owner, the Corporation shall promptly furnish
evidence of timely payment to the Owner. The Corporation shall annually furnish
to the Owner a statement of the amount of income reportable by the Executive for
federal and state income tax purposes, if any, as determined in accordance with
applicable Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations, as a result of the
Corporation's payment of a portion of the premiums hereunder.

         5. Collateral Assignment. The total amount of the Corporation's share
of the Policy premium payments paid by the Corporation pursuant to this
Agreement, less any amounts previously paid to the Corporation by the Owner not
used to pay premiums on the Policy pursuant to this Agreement, shall constitute
the total indebtedness of the Owner to the Corporation (the "Corporation's
Interest"). As security for and to secure the repayment of the Corporation's
Interest, as it may exist from time to time pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, the Owner has, contemporaneously herewith, executed and delivered to
the Corporation a collateral assignment of the Policy substantially in the form
as set forth in Exhibit 3 attached hereto (the "Collateral Assignment").
Repayment of the Corporation's Interest shall be made (i) from the cash
surrender value of the Policy if this Agreement is terminated, or the Owner
surrenders or cancels the Policy prior to the death of the survivor of Executive
or Executive's Spouse, or (ii) from the death proceeds of the Policy if
Executive and Executive's Spouse should die while the Policy and this Agreement
remain in effect. The Collateral Assignment shall not be terminated, altered or
amended by the Owner without the express written consent of the Corporation. The
parties hereto agree to take all action necessary to cause the Collateral
Assignment to conform to the provisions of this Agreement.

         6. Exercise of Owner's Rights While Collateral Assignment is in Effect.
Under the terms of the Policy, the Owner has the right to make certain asset
allocation decisions among various investment funds. While the Collateral
Assignment is in effect, any such asset allocation decisions by the Owner shall
be subject to the review and prior written approval of the Corporation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall have the sole right to surrender
or cancel the Policy for its cash surrender value; provided, however, upon such
surrender or

                                       3
<PAGE>

cancellation of the Policy, the Corporation shall have the unqualified right to
receive a portion of the cash surrender value from the Insurer equal to the
Corporation's Interest.

         7. Compliance with Internal Revenue Code. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, the parties intend for the Policy to be
classified as a "life insurance contract" as defined in Section 7702(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and not as a "modified endowment contract" as
defined in Section 7702A(a) of the Code. If at any time during the term of this
Agreement either the Corporation or the Owner determines that, based on the
schedule of anticipated premium payments and withdrawals set forth in Exhibit 2,
the Policy would not constitute a "life insurance contract" under Section
7702(a) of the Code or would constitute a "modified endowment contract" under
Section 7702A(a) of the Code, the parties agree to restructure the premium
payments and withdrawals to cause the Policy at all times to constitute a "life
insurance contract" under Section 7702(a) of the Code and not a "modified
endowment contract" under Section 7702A(a) of the Code.

         8. Death of Executive and Executive's Spouse. If this Agreement is
still in effect upon the death of the survivor of Executive and Executive's
Spouse, the Corporation and the Owner promptly shall take all action necessary
to obtain the death benefits provided under the Policy. The Owner agrees that
the Corporation shall have the unqualified right to receive a portion of such
death benefits from the Insurer equal to the Corporation's Interest and that no
beneficiary under the Policy shall have the right to receive any portion of the
Policy proceeds prior to the repayment of the full amount of the Corporation's
Interest. The balance of the death benefits provided under the Policy, if any,
shall be paid directly to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by the
Owner in the manner and in the amount or amounts provided in the beneficiary
designation provision of the Policy. In no event shall the amount payable to the
Corporation hereunder exceed the Policy death benefits. The parties hereto agree
that the beneficiary designation provision of the Policy shall conform to the
provisions hereof.

         9. Termination of the Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate prior
to the death of the survivor of Executive and Executive's Spouse upon the
occurrence of any of the following:

         (a) the Owner may terminate this Agreement effective as of a Policy
anniversary date by providing thirty (30) days' advance written notice of such
election to terminate to the Corporation;

         (b) the total cessation of the business of the Corporation;

         (c) the bankruptcy, receivership or dissolution of the Corporation;

         (d) the termination of Executive's employment with the Corporation for
Cause, as defined in the Executive's Employment Agreement;

         (e) if either the Corporation or the Owner fails to comply with any of
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the other party may elect to
terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of such election to the
other party; provided, however, that any such election must be made within sixty
(60) days after such failure to comply;

                                       4
<PAGE>

         (f) Executive's failure to comply with any of the terms and conditions
of such Executive's Employment Agreement and Senior Executive Retirement
Agreement with Wachovia Corporation (or any successor or subsidiary) then in
effect and as may be amended from time to time;

         (g) payment in full by the Owner to the Corporation of the
Corporation's Interest in the Policy; or

         (h) the mutual written agreement of the Owner and the Corporation.

It is the parties' specific intent that following a "Change in Control" the
Corporation shall have no authority to terminate this Agreement for any reason
other than the termination of Executive's employment with the Corporation for
Cause, as defined in the Executive's Employment Agreement.

         10. Disposition of the Policy Upon Termination of the Agreement. If
this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 9, the
Owner shall be required, within sixty (60) days after such termination, to repay
the Corporation the entire amount of the Corporation's Interest in the Policy.
Upon receipt by the Corporation of the entire amount of the Corporation's
Interest in the Policy, the Corporation shall release the Collateral Assignment.
If the Owner does not repay the entire amount of the Corporation's Interest in
the Policy within such sixty (60) day time period, the Corporation may enforce
its rights under the Collateral Assignment; provided, however, the Owner shall
not be liable for any deficiency realized by the Corporation upon the exercise
of the Corporation's rights under the Collateral Assignment.

         11. Discharge of the Insurer. The Insurer shall be fully discharged
from its obligations under the Policy by payment of the Policy death benefits to
the beneficiary or beneficiaries named in the Policy subject to the terms and
conditions of the Policy and the Collateral Assignment. In no event shall the
Insurer be considered a party to this Agreement or to any modification or
amendment hereof. No provision of this Agreement, nor any modification or
amendment hereof, shall in any way be construed as enlarging, changing, varying
or in any other way affecting the obligations of the Insurer as expressly
provided in the Policy except insofar as the provisions hereof are made a part
of the Policy by the Collateral Assignment.

         12. ERISA Information. The following provisions are part of this
Agreement and are intended to meet the requirements of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974:

         (a) The named fiduciary under this Agreement is the Corporation. The
named fiduciary shall be responsible for the management, control and
administration of this Agreement. The named fiduciary may allocate to others
certain aspects of the management and operational responsibilities of this
Agreement, including the employment of advisors and the delegation of any
ministerial duties to qualified individuals.

         (b) The funding policy under this Agreement is that all premiums on the
Policy be remitted by the Corporation to the Insurer when due.

                                       5
<PAGE>

         (c) Direct payment by the Insurer is the basis of payment of benefits
under this Agreement, with those benefits in turn being based on the payment of
premiums as provided in this Agreement.

         (d) For claims procedure purposes, the "Claims Manager" shall be the
Corporate Human Resources Department of the Corporation or its delegee.

                  (i) The claimant's claim for benefits shall be deemed filed

         Agreement is denied by the Corporation, the Claims Manager shall
         deliver to the claimant a written explanation setting forth the
         specific reasons for the denial, specific references to the pertinent
         Agreement provisions on which the denial is based, such other data as
         may be pertinent and information on the procedures to be followed by
         the claimant in obtaining a review of his claim, all written in a
         manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. For this purpose:

                           (A) The Claims Manager's explanation shall be in
                  writing delivered to the claimant within ninety (90) days of
                  the date the claim is filed.

                           (B) If the Claims Manager does not either respond to
                  a claim within ninety (90) days of the date the claim is filed
                  or notify the claimant within that 90-day period that an
                  extension of time for processing the claim will be required,
                  the claim will be deemed denied and the claimant shall be
                  permitted to proceed to the review stage described in the
                  following paragraph (iii).

                  (iii) The claimant shall have sixty (60) days following his
         receipt of the denial of the claim to file with the Claims Manager a
         written request for review of the denial. For such review, the claimant
         or his representative may submit pertinent documents and written issues
         and comments.

                  (iv) The Claims Manager shall decide the issue on review and
         furnish the claimant with a copy within sixty (60) days of receipt of
         the claimant's request for review of his claim. The decision on review
         shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons for the
         decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
         claimant, as well as specific references to the pertinent Agreement
         provisions on which the decision is based. If a copy of the decision is
         not so furnished to the claimant within such sixty (60) days, the claim
         shall be deemed denied on review.

Agreement and the Collateral Assignment shall be construed so as to carry out
such intention.

         4. Payment of Premiums. As a convenience to the parties and except as
provided below, the Corporation shall pay all premiums under the Policy to the
Insurer as and when such

                                       2
<PAGE>

premiums become due. Within thirty (30) days of the first such premium payment
by the Corporation, the Owner shall pay to the Corporation an amount equal to
____________. Within thirty (30) days of each anniversary of the effective date
of the Policy (the "Effective Date") thereafter for ________ (____) years from
the Effective Date (the "Premium Payment Period"), the Owner shall pay to the
Corporation the economic value of the death benefit under the Policy as
determined by the Insurer from time to time while the Policy remains in effect
calculated in accordance with applicable U.S. Treasury Department rules and
regulations. Within thirty (30) days of each anniversary of the Effective Date
after the Premium Payment Period, the Owner shall pay the entire premium
payment, if any. A schedule of the premiums to be paid by the Owner based on the
Insurer's current projections is set forth on Exhibit 2.

         Should actual investment returns vary from those assumed in Exhibit 2,
the Corporation's share of the premiums shall continue to be equal to the
amounts set forth on Exhibit 2 as if no such variation occurred. Any increase or
decrease in the premiums required to provide the total death benefits described
on Exhibit 2 resulting from a variation in investment returns shall affect only
the Owner's share of the premiums, and to the extent the amount paid by the
Owner pursuant to the preceding paragraph is insufficient, the Owner shall pay
to the Corporation any such amount required to make the premium payment in full.

         Upon request by the Owner, the Corporation shall promptly furnish
evidence of timely payment to the Owner. The Corporation shall annually furnish
to the Owner a statement of the amount of income reportable by the Executive for
federal and state income tax purposes, if any, as determined in accordance with
applicable Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations, as a result of the
Corporation's payment of a portion of the premiums hereunder.

         5. Collateral Assignment. The total amount of the Corporation's share
of the Policy premium payments paid by the Corporation pursuant to this
Agreement, less any amounts previously paid to the Corporation by the Owner not
used to pay premiums on the Policy pursuant to this Agreement, shall constitute
the total indebtedness of the Owner to the Corporation (the "Corporation's
Interest"). As security for and to secure the repayment of the Corporation's
Interest, as it may exist from time to time pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, the Owner has, contemporaneously herewith, executed and delivered to
the Corporation a collateral assignment of the Policy substantially in the form
as set forth in Exhibit 3 attached hereto (the "Collateral Assignment").
Repayment of the Corporation's Interest shall be made (i) from the cash
surrender value of the Policy if this Agreement is terminated, or the Owner
surrenders or cancels the Policy prior to the death of the survivor of Executive
and Executive's Spouse, or (ii) from the death proceeds of the Policy if
Executive and Executive's Spouse should die while the Policy and this Agreement
remain in effect. The Collateral Assignment shall not be terminated, altered or
amended by the Owner without the express written consent of the Corporation. The
parties hereto agree to take all action necessary to cause the Collateral
Assignment to conform to the provisions of this Agreement.

         6. Exercise of Owner's Rights While Collateral Assignment is in Effect.
Under the terms of the Policy, the Owner has the right to make certain asset
allocation decisions among various investment funds. While the Collateral
Assignment is in effect, any such asset allocation decisions by the Owner shall
be subject to the review and prior written approval of the Corporation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall have the sole right to surrender
or cancel the Policy for its cash surrender value; provided, however, upon such
surrender or

                                       3
<PAGE>

cancellation of the Policy, the Corporation shall have the unqualified right to
receive a portion of the cash surrender value from the Insurer equal to the
Corporation's Interest.

         7. Compliance with Internal Revenue Code. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, the parties intend for the Policy to be
classified as a "life insurance contract" as defined in Section 7702(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and not as a "modified endowment contract" as
defined in Section 7702A(a) of the Code. If at any time during the term of this
Agreement either the Corporation or the Owner determines that, based on the
schedule of anticipated premium payments and withdrawals set forth in Exhibit 2,
the Policy would not constitute a "life insurance contract" under Section
7702(a) of the Code or would constitute a "modified endowment contract" under
Section 7702A(a) of the Code, the parties agree to restructure the premium
payments and withdrawals to cause the Policy at all times to constitute a "life
insurance contract" under Section 7702(a) of the Code and not a "modified
endowment contract" under Section 7702A(a) of the Code.

         8. Death of Executive and Executive's Spouse. If this Agreement is
still in effect upon the death of the survivor of Executive and Executive's
Spouse, the Corporation and the Owner promptly shall take all action necessary
to obtain the death benefits provided under the Policy. The Owner agrees that
the Corporation shall have the unqualified right to receive a portion of such
death benefits from the Insurer equal to the Corporation's Interest and that no
beneficiary under the Policy shall have the right to receive any portion of the
Policy proceeds prior to the repayment of the full amount of the Corporation's
Interest. The balance of the death benefits provided under the Policy, if any,
shall be paid directly to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by the
Owner in the manner and in the amount or amounts provided in the beneficiary
designation provision of the Policy. In no event shall the amount payable to the
Corporation hereunder exceed the Policy death benefits. The parties hereto agree
that the beneficiary designation provision of the Policy shall conform to the
provisions hereof.

         9. Termination of the Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate prior
to the death of the survivor of Executive and Executive's Spouse upon the
occurrence of any of the following:

         (a) either party may terminate this Agreement effective as of a Policy
anniversary date by providing thirty (30) days' advance written notice of such
election to terminate to the other party, provided that the Corporation may not
terminate this Agreement following (i) a Change in Control, (ii) the Executive's
Disability, or (iii) the Executive's death while the Executive's Spouse is still
living.

         (b) the total cessation of the business of the Corporation;

         (c) the bankruptcy, receivership or dissolution of the Corporation;

         (d) the termination of Executive's employment with the Corporation
other than (i) by reason of Executive's death or Disability, (ii) by reason of
Executive's retirement from employment with the Corporation with the consent of
the Corporation, or (iii) following a Change in Control;

                                       4
<PAGE>

         (e) if either the Corporation or the Owner fails to comply with any of
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the other party may elect to
terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of such election to the
other party; provided, however, that any such election must be made within sixty
(60) days after such failure to comply;

         (f) Executive's failure to comply with any of the terms and conditions
of such Executive's Employment Agreement and Senior Executive Retirement
Agreement with Wachovia Corporation (or any successor or subsidiary) then in
effect and as may be amended from time to time;

         (g) payment in full by the Owner to the Corporation of the
Corporation's Interest in the Policy; or

         (h) the mutual written agreement of the Owner and the Corporation.

         10. Disposition of the Policy Upon Termination of the Agreement. If
this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 9, the
Owner shall be required, within sixty (60) days after such termination, to repay
the Corporation the entire amount of the Corporation's Interest in the Policy.
Upon receipt by the Corporation of the entire amount of the Corporation's
Interest in the Policy, the Corporation shall release the Collateral Assignment.
If the Owner does not repay the entire amount of the Corporation's Interest in
the Policy within such sixty (60) day time period, the Corporation may enforce
its rights under the Collateral Assignment; provided, however, the Owner shall
not be liable for any deficiency realized by the Corporation upon the exercise
of the Corporation's rights under the Collateral Assignment.

         11. Discharge of the Insurer. The Insurer shall be fully discharged
from its obligations under the Policy by payment of the Policy death benefits to
the beneficiary or beneficiaries named in the Policy subject to the terms and
conditions of the Policy and the Collateral Assignment. In no event shall the
Insurer be considered a party to this Agreement or to any modification or
amendment hereof. No provision of this Agreement, nor any modification or
amendment hereof, shall in any way be construed as enlarging, changing, varying
or in any other way affecting the obligations of the Insurer as expressly
provided in the Policy except insofar as the provisions hereof are made a part
of the Policy by the Collateral Assignment.

         12. ERISA Information. The following provisions are part of this
Agreement and are intended to meet the requirements of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974:

         (a) The named fiduciary under this Agreement is the Corporation. The
named fiduciary shall be responsible for the management, control and
administration of this Agreement. The named fiduciary may allocate to others
certain aspects of the management and operational responsibilities of this
Agreement, including the employment of advisors and the delegation of any
ministerial duties to qualified individuals.

         (b) The funding policy under this Agreement is that all premiums on the
Policy be remitted by the Corporation to the Insurer when due.

                                       5
<PAGE>

         (c) Direct payment by the Insurer is the basis of payment of benefits
under this Agreement, with those benefits in turn being based on the payment of
premiums as provided in this Agreement.

         (d) For claims procedure purposes, the "Claims Manager" shall be the
Corporate Human Resources Department of the Corporation or its delegee.

                  (i) The claimant's claim for benefits shall be deemed filed
         when presented orally or in writing to the Claims Manager.

                  (ii) If for any reason a claim for benefits under this
         Agreement is denied by the Corporation, the Claims Manager shall
         deliver to the claimant a written explanation setting forth the
         specific reasons for the denial, specific references to the pertinent
         Agreement provisions on which the denial is based, such other data as
         may be pertinent and information on the procedures to be followed by
         the claimant in obtaining a review of his claim, all written in a
         manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. For this purpose:

                           (A) The Claims Manager's explanation shall be in
                  writing delivered to the claimant within ninety (90) days of
                  the date the claim is filed.

                           (B) If the Claims Manager does not either respond to
                  a claim within ninety (90) days of the date the claim is filed
                  or notify the claimant within that 90-day period that an
                  extension of time for processing the claim will be required,
                  the claim will be deemed denied and the claimant shall be
                  permitted to proceed to the review stage described in the
                  following paragraph (iii).

                  (iii) The claimant shall have sixty (60) days following his
         receipt of the denial of the claim to file with the Claims Manager a
         written request for review of the denial. For such review, the claimant
         or his representative may submit pertinent documents and written issues
         and comments.

                  (iv) The Claims Manager shall decide the issue on review and
         furnish the claimant with a copy within sixty (60) days of receipt of
         the claimant's request for review of his claim. The decision on review
         shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons for the
         decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
         claimant, as well as specific references to the pertinent Agreement
         provisions on which the decision is based. If a copy of the decision is
         not so furnished to the claimant within such sixty (60) days, the claim
         shall be deemed denied on review.

         13.      Miscellaneous.

written instrument signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors
