     (b)  or (b) the average market price of the Borrower's  ordinary shares for
          the 20 business  days prior to the date that the Lender  serves notice
          electing to convert all or part of the Loan

immediately  prior to and conditional  upon the Offer becoming  unconditional in
all respects; and

     WHEREAS,  the Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit
from the Lender entering into the Loan Agreement and the Heads of Terms.

     NOW, THEREFORE,  in consideration of the premises and the agreements herein
and in order to induce the Lender to make the Loan and the parties to enter into
the Heads of Terms, the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Lender as follows:

     SECTION 1.  Definitions.  Reference  is hereby  made to the Loan,  the Loan
agreement  and the  Heads of  Terms  for a  statement  of the  respective  terms
thereof.  All terms  used in this  Guarantee  which are  defined in the Heads of
Terms and not otherwise  defined  herein shall have the same meanings  herein as
set forth therein.

     SECTION  2.  Guarantee.  (a) If the  Guarantor  terminates  the Offer for a
reason  other than the  failure of a condition  set forth in  paragraph 5 of the
Heads of Terms, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees  the prompt  payment  by the  Borrower,  as and when due and  payable
(whether by scheduled maturity,  required  prepayment,  acceleration,  demand or
otherwise)  (the "Due  Date"),  of all  amounts  now or  hereafter  owing by the
Borrower in respect of the Loan,  whether for  principal  of the Loan,  interest
(including  interest  accruing  on or  after  the  filing  of  any  petition  in
bankruptcy or for reorganization relating to the Borrower whether or not a claim
for  post-filing  interest  is  allowed  in such  proceeding),  fees  (including
collection  fees  as set  out in the  Loan  Agreement),  commissions,  expenses,
indemnifications or otherwise  (collectively,  the "Without Cause Amount").  The

thousand  (500,000)  Guarantee  Shares as full and complete  satisfaction of the
Guarantor's obligations under this Guarantee.

     (b) If the  Offer  terminates  as a result  of the  failure  of one or more

provide the Lender and the Borrower  notice of  termination of the Offer and the
Heads of Terms (a "Termination  Notice") and the Guarantor  hereby  irrevocably,
absolutely and unconditionally  guarantees the prompt payment by the Borrower of
the  amount  equal to the  amount  of the Loan  (the "For  Cause  Amount").  The
Guarantor  will pay the For Cause  Amount by  issuing  to the  Lender  Guarantee
Shares with a fair market value (as  determined by the five day average  closing
price of the shares of common  stock of the  Guarantor as quoted on the American
Stock  Exchange or such other primary  exchange or public market for such shares
immediately  prior to the Due Date or the  Termination  Notice,  as  applicable)
equal  to the  Loan  as  full  and  complete  satisfaction  of  the  Guarantor's
obligations under this Guarantee.

     (c) Upon  failure by the  Borrower  to pay  punctually  as and when due and
payable all amounts owing by the Borrower in respect of the Loan,  the Guarantor
shall  forthwith

                                                                     [Initialed]

at such placer as is specified by the Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
number of shares issuable to the Lender in full and complete satisfaction of the
obligations under this Guarantee shall not exceed 500,000 Guarantee Shares.

     (d) The Guarantee Shares have not been and will not be registered under the
Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"),  and will be issued to the
Lender in  reliance  upon  Regulation  S under the 1933  Act.  The  certificates
representing   the  Guarantee   Shares  shall  bear  a  restrictive   legend  in
substantially the form as follows:

     COUNSEL, OR RECOGNIZED STANDING, OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, REASONABLY
     SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.  HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE SECURITIES
     REPRESENTED  HEREBY MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE 1933

                                                                     [Initialed]
<PAGE>

          (iv) acknowledges  that the Guarantee  Shares are not being  acquired,
               directly  or  indirectly,  for the  amount or  benefit  of a U.S.
               Person or a person in the United States.

     (f) The Lender  agrees not to engage in any hedging  transactions  or other
transactions that have the effect of transferring the economic risk of ownership
of the Guarantee Shares unless such transactions comply with the requirements of
the 1933 Act.

the Guarantee Shares directly or indirectly, unless:

          (i)  the sale is to the Guarantor;

               applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws; or

          (iv) the  securities  are sold in a transaction  that does not require
               registration under the 1933 Act or any applicable U.S. state laws
               and regulations governing the offer and sale of securities; and

with respect to subparagraphs  (iii) and (iv) hereof,  it has prior to such sale
furnished to the Guarantor an opinion of counsel reasonably  satisfactory to the
Guarantor.

     SECTION 3. Guarantor's Obligations Unconditional.

     (a) Except as otherwise  limited in Sections  2(b) and 2(d),  the Guarantor
hereby  guarantees that the amounts due under the Loan Agreement will be paid by
the  Guarantor  strictly  in  accordance  with the terms of the Loan  Agreement,
regardless  of any law,  regulation  or order now or  hereafter in effect in any
jurisdiction  affecting  any of such terms or the rights of Lender with  respect
thereto.  The  obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee are independent
of the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Agreement, and a separate action or
actions may be brought and  prosecuted  against the  Guarantor  to enforce  this
Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrower or
whether  the  Borrower  is  joined  in any such  action.  The  liability  of the
Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any
lack of validity or  enforceability  of the Loan  Agreement or any  agreement or
instrument  relating thereto  (collectively,  the "Loan  Documents") or (ii) any
non-perfection of any lien on, or security interest in, any collateral.

                                                                     [Initialed]
<PAGE>

     (b) This  Guarantee  (i) is a continuing  guaranty and shall remain in full
force and effect until such date on which all of the  obligations  and all other
expenses to be paid by the Guarantor or the Borrower pursuant thereto shall have
been  satisfied  in full,  and (ii) shall  continue to be  effective or shall be
reinstated,  as the  case  may be,  if at any  time  any  payment  of any of the
obligations  is rescinded  or must  otherwise be returned by the Lender upon the
insolvency,  bankruptcy or reorganization  of the Borrower or otherwise,  as all
through such payment had not been made.

     SECTION 4. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of
any amount  payable by the Borrower  under the Loan Agreement is stayed upon the
insolvency,  bankruptcy  or  reorganization  of the  Borrower,  all such amounts
otherwise  subject to  acceleration  under the terms of the Loan Agreement shall
nonetheless  be payable by the  Guarantor  hereunder  forthwith on demand by the
Lender.

     SECTION 5. Subrogation.  Upon making any payment under this Guarantee,  the
Guarantee  shall be subrogated to the rights of the Lender  against the Borrower
with  respect  to such  payment;  provided,  however,  until  the  Loan has been
satisfied in full, the Guarantor  hereby waives and  irrevocably  agrees it will
not  exercise  any and all  rights  which it has or may have at any time or from
time to time  (whether  arising  directly or  indirectly  by operation of law or
contract)  to assert any claim  against the  Borrower on account of any payments
made under this Guarantee,  including,  without limitation, any and all existing
and  future  rights of  subrogation,  reimbursement,  exoneration,  contribution
and/or  indemnity.  If any amount  shall be paid to the  Guarantor on account of
such  subrogation  rights at any time when the Loan and all such other  expenses
shall  not have been paid in full,  such  amount  shall be held in trust for the
benefit of the Lender, shall be segregated from the other funds of the Guarantor
and shall forthwith be paid over to the Lender to be applied in whole or in part
by the Lender against the Loan, whether matured or unmatured, and all such other
expenses in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

     SECTION 6. Maximum Guaranteed Amount.  Notwithstanding  any other provision
of this Guarantee to the contrary, if the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
would  otherwise be held or determined by a court of competent  jurisdiction  in
any action or proceeding involving any bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,
moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other law affecting the rights of creditors
generally,  to be void, invalid or unenforceable to any extent on account of the
amount of the Guarantor's  liability under this Guarantee,  then notwithstanding
any other  provision  of this  Guarantee  to the  contrary,  the  amount of such
liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantor or any other person
or entity,  be  automatically  limited to 500,000  shares of common stock of the
Guarantor.

     SECTION 7. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications  provided for
hereunder  shall be in writing and shall be mailed (by certified  mail,  postage
prepaid  and return  receipt  requested),  telecopied  or  delivered,  if to the
Guarantor,  to it at its  address  set  forth in the Loan  Agreement;  if to the
Lender, to it at its address set forth in the Loan Agreement; or, as to any such
person, at such other address as shall be designated by such person in a written
notice to such other  persons  complying  as to delivery  with the terms of this
Section 7. All such notices and other  communications  shall be effective (i) if
sent by  registered  mail,  return  receipt  requested,  when  received or three
business days after mailing,  whichever first occurs,  (ii) if telecopied,  when

                                                                     [Initialed]

day and, if not, on the next business day, or (iii) if delivered, upon delivery,
provided the same is on a business day and, if not, on the next business day.

     SECTION 8. Integration. This Guarantee constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto in relation to the Guarantor's  guarantee
to  repay  the  Loan  and   supersedes   any  and  all  prior   agreements   and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

     SECTION  9.  Governing  Law.  This  Guarantee   shall  be  subject  to  the
non-exclusive  jurisdiction  of the English  Courts and  governed by the laws of
England.

     SECTION 10. Miscellaneous.

     (a) The Guarantor  will make each payment  hereunder in lawful money of the
United States of America and in immediately  available funds or at the option of
the Lender shares of common stock to the Lender at such address specified by the
Lender from time to time by notice to such the Guarantor.

     (b) No amendment  of any  provision  of this  Guarantee  shall be effective
unless it is in  writing  and signed by the  Guarantor  and the  Lender,  and no
waiver of any  provision of this  Guarantee,  and no consent to any departure by
the Guarantor  therefrom,  shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed
by the Lender,  and then such waiver or consent  shall be effective  only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

     (c) No  failure  on the part of the  Lender  to  exercise,  and no delay in
exercising,  any right  hereunder or under the Loan Agreement shall operate as a
waiver thereof,  nor shall any single or partial  exercise of any right preclude
any other or further  exercise  thereof or the exercise of any other right.  The
rights  and  remedies  of the  Lender  provided  herein  and in the  other  Loan
Documents  are  cumulative  and are in addition  to, and not  exclusive  of, any
rights or  remedies  provided  by law.  The rights of the Lender  under the Loan
Agreement  and any  agreement  or document  relating  thereto  against any party
thereto are not  conditional  or contingent on any attempt by any such person to
exercise any of its rights under any other Loan  Document  against such party or
against any other person.

     (d) Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions
hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or  enforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction.

     (e) This Guarantee shall (i) be binding on the Guarantor and its successors
and assigns, and (ii) inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Lender
hereunder,  to the  benefit of the Lender and its  successors,  transferees  and
assigns.  Without  limiting  the  generality  of clause (ii) of the  immediately
preceding sentence, the Lender may, with prior written consent of the Guarantor,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, assign or otherwise transfer the Loan,
and assign or otherwise  transfer its rights under any other Loan  Document,  to
any other person,  and such other person shall thereupon  become vested with all
of the benefits in respect

                                                                     [Initialed]

thereof  granted  to the  Lender  herein  or  otherwise.  None of the  rights or
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise  transferred
without the prior written consent of the Lender.

     (f) The  parties  to this  Guarantee  do not  intend  that any term of this
Guarantee  should be  enforceable  by virtue of the  Contacts  (Rights  of Third
Parties) Act 1999 by any person who is not a party to this Guarantee.

                        ANTHEM 2001 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

1.    PURPOSE

      The purpose of this Anthem 2001 Stock Incentive Plan is to further the
long term stability and financial success of Anthem, Inc. (the "Company"), and
its Subsidiaries, by attracting and retaining employees through the use of cash
and stock incentives and to encourage ownership in the Company by non-employee
members of the Board of Directors of the Company. It is believed that ownership
of Company Stock and the use of cash incentives will stimulate the efforts of
those employees upon whose judgment and interests the Employers are and will be
dependent for the successful conduct of their business. It is also believed that
Incentive Awards granted to such employees under this Plan will strengthen their
desire to remain employed with the Employers and will further the identification
of those employees' interests with those of the Company's shareholders. Finally,
it is believed that Options granted to non-employee members of the Board of
Directors of the Company will promote long-term shareholder value and will
provide non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company with an
incentive to continue as directors of the Company. The Plan is intended to
operate in compliance with the provisions of Rule 16b-3.

are not granted in connection with Options:

          (i) Stock Appreciation Rights shall entitle the Participant, upon
      exercise of all or any part of the Stock Appreciation Rights, to receive
      in exchange from the Employer an amount equal to the excess of (x) the
      Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the Company Stock covered by
      the surrendered Stock Appreciation Right over (y) the price of the Company
      Stock on the Date of Grant of the Stock Appreciation Right. The Committee
      may limit the amount that the Participant will be entitled to receive upon
      exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights.

          (ii) A Stock Appreciation Right may only be exercised at a time when
      the Fair Market Value of the Company Stock covered by the Stock

      permit fully the Option grants to the Eligible Directors described in this
      paragraph, the Option grants shall be reduced pro rata (to zero if
      necessary) so as not to exceed the number of shares of Company Stock
      available.

            produces a fractional share, the Eligible Director may be paid in
            cash the Fair Market Value of the fractional share.

                  (ii) An Eligible Director may elect to receive up to 100% of
            his or her Fees in shares of Company Stock (a "Stock Election"). A

            beginning after the revocation. A Stock Election must specify the
            applicable percentage of the Fees that the Eligible Director wishes
            to receive in shares of Company Stock (the "Designated Percentage").
            If a Stock Election is made, the amount of Fees to be paid to an
            Eligible Director during each calendar quarter shall be determined
            on the last day of the quarter. The number of shares of Company
            Stock to be issued in lieu of the Fees shall be determined by
            multiplying the Designated Percentage times the Fees otherwise
            payable for the quarter and dividing that product by the Fair Market
            Value of the Company Stock on the last day of the quarter. If this
            formula produces a fractional share, the Eligible Director may be
            paid in cash the Fair Market Value of the fractional share.

      (d)   DEFERRALS OF STOCK. An Eligible Director may elect to defer the
payment of some or all of the shares of Company Stock otherwise payable under
Section 11(c) pursuant to and in accordance with the Board of Directors Deferred
Compensation Plan, as now in effect or as hereinafter amended and restated,
which plan is incorporated herein by reference.

      (e)   WITHHOLDING. If at any time it is determined that the Company is
obligated to withhold income taxes upon the transfer of Company Stock as a
result of the exercise of an Option or the receipt of Retainer Fees or Fees in
Company Stock by an Eligible Director, the Company shall have the right to
retain or sell without notice shares of Company Stock having a Fair Market Value
sufficient on such date or dates as may be determined by the Board (but not more
than five business days prior to the date on which such shares would otherwise
have been delivered) to cover the amount of any federal or state income tax if
required to be withheld or otherwise deducted and paid with respect to such
payment and/or the exercise of the Option, remitting any balance to the Eligible
Director; provided, however, that the Eligible Director shall have the right to
make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to provide the Company
with the funds to enable it to pay such tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company shall not sell shares of Company Stock if such sale will cause the
Eligible Director to incur a liability under section 16b of the Act.

      (f)   TRANSFERABILITY. An Option granted under this Section 11 shall not
be transferable by the Eligible Director otherwise than by will, or by the laws
of descent and distribution, and shall be exercised during the lifetime of the
Eligible Director only by him or her; provided that an Eligible Director may
transfer any Option to members of the Eligible Directors' immediate family or
trusts or family partnerships for the benefit of such persons, subject to such
terms and conditions as may be established by the Board. Except as specifically
provided in an written option agreement, no Option or interest therein may be
transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Eligible Director during
his or her lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, or be made
subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

      (g)   ADMINISTRATION. This Section 11 of the Plan shall be administered by
the Board. The Board shall have all powers necessary to administer this Section
11 of the Plan, including, without limitation, the authority (within the
limitations described herein) to prescribe the form of the agreement embodying
awards of Options under this Section 11 of the Plan, to construe this Section 11
of the Plan, to determine all questions arising under this Section 11 of

                                       13
<PAGE>

the Plan, and to adopt and amend rules and regulations for the administration of
this Section 11 of the Plan as it may deem desirable. Any decision of the Board
in the administration of this Section 11 of the Plan shall be final and
conclusive. The Board may act only by a majority of its members in office,
except that members thereof may authorize any one or more of their number or any
officer of the Company to execute and deliver documents on behalf of the Board.
No member of the Board shall be liable for anything done or omitted to be done
by him or any other member of the Board in connection with this Section 11 of
the Plan, except for his or her own willful misconduct or as expressly provided
by statute.

      (h) MODIFICATION, EXTENSION AND RENEWAL OF OPTIONS. Except for the terms
of an Option contained in Section 11, the Board shall have the power to modify,
extend or renew outstanding Options and to authorize the grant of new Options in
substitution therefore, provided that any such action may not have the effect of
altering, enhancing or impairing any rights or obligations of any person under
any Option previously granted without the consent of the Eligible Director.

      (i) LIMITATION OF RIGHTS

            (i) NO RIGHT TO CONTINUE AS A DIRECTOR. Neither the Plan nor the
      granting of an Option nor any other action taken pursuant to the Plan,
      shall constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express
      or implied, that the Company will retain any person as a director for any
      period of time.

            (ii) NO SHAREHOLDERS RIGHTS UNDER OPTIONS. An Eligible Director
      shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to Shares covered by
      his or her Options until the date of exercise of the Option, and, except
      as provided in Section 16, no adjustment will be made for dividends or
      other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such
      exercise.

12.   METHOD OF EXERCISE OF OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

      (a) Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised by the
Participant giving notice of the exercise to the Employer stating the number of
shares the Participant has elected to purchase under the Option or the number of
Stock Appreciation Rights the Participant has elected to exercise. In the case
of the purchase of shares under an Option, such notice shall be effective only
if accompanied by the exercise price in full in cash; provided, however, that if
the terms of an Option so permit, the Participant may (i) deliver Mature Shares
(valued at their Fair Market Value) in satisfaction of all or any part of the
exercise price, (ii) cause to be withheld from the Option shares, shares of
Company Stock (valued at their Fair Market Value) in satisfaction of all or any
part of the exercise price, (iii) deliver a properly executed exercise notice
together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the
Employer, from the sale or loan proceeds with respect to the sale of Company
Stock or a loan secured by Company Stock, the amount necessary to pay the
exercise price, or (iv) deliver an interest bearing promissory note, payable to
the Company, in payment of all or part of the exercise price together with such
collateral as may be required by the Committee at the time of exercise. The
interest rate under any such promissory note shall be established by the
Committee and shall be

                                       14
<PAGE>

at least equal to the minimum interest rate required at the time to avoid
imputed interest under the Code.

      (b) The Company may place on any certificate representing Company Stock
issued upon the exercise of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right any legend
deemed desirable by the Company's counsel to comply with federal or state
securities laws, and the Company may require a customary written indication of
the Participant's investment intent. Until the Participant has made any required
payment, including any Applicable Withholding Taxes, and has had issued a
certificate for the shares of Company Stock acquired, he or she shall possess no
shareholder rights with respect to the shares of Company Stock.

      (c) Each Participant shall agree, as a condition of the exercise of an
Option or a Stock Appreciation Right, to pay to the Employer, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Employer regarding the payment to the Employer
of, Applicable Withholding Taxes. Until such amount has been paid or
arrangements satisfactory to the Employer have been made, no stock certificate
shall be issued upon the exercise of an Option or cash paid upon the exercise of
a Stock Appreciation Right.

      (d) As an alternative to making a cash payment to the Employer to satisfy
Applicable Withholding Taxes, if the Option or Stock Appreciation Rights
agreement so provides or the Committee subsequently authorizes, the Participant
may elect (i) to deliver Mature Shares (valued at their Fair Market Value) or
(ii) to have the Employer retain that number of shares of Company Stock (valued
at their Fair Market Value) that would satisfy all or a specified portion of the
Applicable Withholding Taxes.

13.   NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

      Options (other than Incentive Stock Options) and Stock Appreciation Rights
by their terms, shall be transferable to the extent specifically provided in the
Incentive Award. Incentive Stock Options granted to Participants, by their
terms, shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution and shall be exercisable, during the Participant's lifetime, only
by the Participant. The transferability of Options granted to Eligible Directors
shall be governed by Section 11 of this Plan.

14.   EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE PLAN

      The Plan was approved by the Company's board of directors and shareholders
on July 30, 2001 and the effective date of the Plan is July 30, 2001. Until the
requirements of any applicable Federal or State securities laws have been met,
no Company Stock in connection with a Performance Award, Restricted Stock or
Performance Stock shall be awarded that is not contingent on these events and no
Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted shall be exercisable.

                                       15

15.   TERMINATION, MODIFICATION, CHANGE

      If not sooner terminated by the Board, this Plan shall terminate at the
close of business on July 29, 2011. No Incentive Awards shall be made under the
Plan after its termination. The Board may amend or terminate the Plan in such
respects as it shall deem advisable; provided that, if and to the extent
required by the Code, no change shall be made that increases the total number of
shares of Company Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to Incentive Awards
granted under the Plan (except pursuant to Section 16), materially modifies the
requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan, or materially
increases the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan, unless such
change is authorized by the shareholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Board may unilaterally amend the Plan and Incentive Awards with
respect to Participants as it deems appropriate to ensure compliance with Rule
16b-3 and to cause Incentive Stock Options to meet the requirements of the Code
and regulations thereunder. Except as provided in the preceding two sentences, a
termination or amendment of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the
Participant, adversely affect a Participant's rights under an Incentive Award
previously granted to him or her.

16.   CHANGE IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

      (a) In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination of
shares, recapitalization or merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation or other change in the Company's capital stock (including, but not
limited to, the creation or issuance to shareholders generally of rights,
options or warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock of the
Company), the number and kind of shares of stock or securities of the Company to
be subject to the Plan and to Options then outstanding or to be granted
thereunder, the maximum number of shares or securities which may be delivered
under the Plan, the exercise price, the terms of Incentive Awards and other
relevant provisions shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, whose
determination shall be binding on all persons. If the adjustment would produce
fractional shares with respect to any unexercised Option, the Committee may
adjust appropriately the number of shares covered by the Option so as to
eliminate the fractional shares.

      (b) If the Company is a party to a consolidation or a merger in which the
Company is not the surviving corporation, a transaction that results in the
acquisition of substantially all of the Company's outstanding stock by a single
person or entity, or a sale or transfer of substantially all of the Company's
assets, the Committee may take such actions with respect to outstanding
Incentive Awards as the Committee deems appropriate.

      (c) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee
may take the foregoing actions without the consent of any Participant, and the
Committee's determination shall be conclusive and binding on all persons for all
purposes.

17.   ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

      Except as provided in Section 11(g), the Plan shall be administered by the
Committee. The Committee shall have general authority to impose any limitation
or condition upon an Incentive Award the Committee deems appropriate to achieve
the objectives of the Incentive Award and the Plan and, without limitation and
in addition to powers set forth elsewhere in the Plan, shall have the following
specific authority:

      (a) The Committee shall have the power and complete discretion to
determine (i) which eligible employees shall receive Incentive Awards and the
nature of each Incentive Award, (ii) the terms and conditions of any Performance
Award, (iii) whether all or any part of an Incentive Award shall be accelerated
upon a Change of Control; provided, however, that unless the respective award
agreement states otherwise, all Incentive Awards shall be accelerated upon a
Change in Control, (iv) the number of shares of Company Stock to be covered by
each Incentive Award, (v) whether Options shall be Incentive Stock Options or
Nonstatutory Stock Options, (vi) when, whether and to what extent Stock
Appreciation Rights shall be granted, (vii) the time or times when an Incentive
Award shall be granted, (viii) whether an Incentive Award shall become vested
over a period of time and when it shall be fully vested, (ix) when Options and
Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised, (x) whether a Disability exists,
(xi) the manner in which payment will be made upon the exercise of Options or
Stock Appreciation Rights, (xii) conditions relating to the length of time
before disposition of Company Stock received upon the exercise of Options or
Stock Appreciation Rights is permitted, (xiii) whether to authorize a
Participant (A) to deliver Mature Shares to satisfy Applicable Withholding Taxes
or (B) to have the Employer withhold from the shares to be issued upon the
exercise of an Incentive Award (other than an Incentive Option) the number of
shares necessary to satisfy Applicable Withholding Taxes, (xiv) the terms and
conditions applicable to Restricted Stock awards, (xv) the terms and conditions
on which restrictions upon Restricted Stock shall lapse, (xvi) whether to
accelerate the time at which any or all restrictions with respect to Restricted
Stock will lapse or be removed, (xvii) the terms and conditions applicable to
Performance Stock awards, (xviii) notice provisions relating to the sale of
Company Stock acquired under the Plan, and (xix) any additional requirements
relating to Incentive Awards that the Committee deems appropriate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no "tandem stock options" (where two stock
options are issued together and the exercise of one option affects the right to
exercise the other option) may be issued in connection with Incentive Stock
Options. The Committee shall have the power to amend the terms of previously
granted Incentive Awards so long as the terms as amended are consistent with the
terms of the Plan and provided that the consent of the Participant is obtained
with respect to any amendment that would be detrimental to him or her, except
that such consent will not be required if such amendment is for the purpose of
complying with Rule 16b-3 or any requirement of the Code applicable to the
Incentive Award.

      (b) The Committee may adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the
Plan with respect to Participants. The interpretation and construction of any
provision of the Plan by the Committee shall be final and conclusive as to any
Participant. The Committee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the
Employer, and shall not incur any liability for any action taken in good faith
in reliance upon the advice of counsel.

                                       17
<PAGE>

      (c) A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum,
and all actions of the Committee shall be taken by a majority of the members
present. Any action may be taken by a written instrument signed by all of the
members, and any action so taken shall be fully effective as if it had been
taken at a meeting.

18.   NOTICE

      All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given
under this Plan shall be in writing or other form approved by the Committee and
shall be deemed to have been duly given as follows (a) if to an Employer then
delivered personally to the stock plan administrator of the Company or mailed
first class, postage prepaid at the principal business address of the Company to
the attention of the stock plan administrator at the Company; or (b) if to any
Participant then delivered personally, mailed first class, postage prepaid at
the last address of the Participant known to the sender at the time the notice
or other communication is sent or delivered, or by e-mail, interoffice mail,
intranet or other means of office communication determined by the Committee.

19.   INTERPRETATION

      The terms of this Plan are subject to all present and future regulations
and rulings of the Secretary of the Treasury or his or her delegate relating to
the qualification of Incentive Stock Options under the Code. If any provision of
the Plan conflicts with any such regulation or ruling, then that provision of
the Plan shall be void and of no effect. The terms of this Plan shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Indiana.

20.   LEGENDS

      In its sole and complete discretion, the Committee may elect to legend
certificates representing Company Stock sold or awarded under the Plan to make
appropriate references to the restrictions imposed on such Company Stock.

21.   TAX BENEFIT

      The Committee may, in its sole discretion, include a provision in any
Nonstatutory Stock Option agreement that provides for an additional cash payment
from the Company to the grantee of the Nonstatutory Stock Option as soon as
practicable after the exercise date of such Nonstatutory Stock Option equal to
all or a portion of the tax benefit to be received by the Company attributable
to its federal income tax deduction resulting from the exercise of such
Nonstatutory Stock Option.
