                       SECTION 1. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

         1.1 The purpose of the Covanta Energy Group Profit Sharing Plan
(formerly know as, from time to time, the (i) Ogden Projects Profit Sharing
Plan, (ii) OPI Profit Sharing Plan, (iii) Ogden Projects, Inc. Profit Sharing
Plan and (iv) Ogden Energy Group Profit Sharing Plan) (the "Plan"), is to
provide eligible employees of Covanta Energy Group, Inc. and its participating
subsidiaries and other participating companies, with a convenient way to save on
a regular and long-term basis and by providing such Eligible Employees with a
beneficial interest in the profits of the business, all as set forth herein and
in the trust agreement adopted as part of the Plan. The Plan, as hereby amended
and restated, and the trust continued hereunder, are intended to continue to
qualify as a plan and a trust which meet the requirements of Sections 401(a),
401(k) and 501(a), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as now in
effect or as hereafter amended, or any other applicable provisions of law
including, without limitation, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as now in effect or hereafter amended.

         1.2 (a) Prior to the adoption of the Plan, Ogden Projects, Inc. (now
known as Covanta Energy Group, Inc.) and several other subsidiaries of Ogden
Corporation (now known as Covanta Energy Corporation) were each a "Participating
Company" under the Ogden Corporation Profit Sharing Plan (now known as The Ogden
401(k) Plan) (the "Prior Plan"), and the related trust thereunder (the "Prior
Plan Trust"). As a result of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, Ogden Corporation,
parent of the sponsor of the Prior Plan, determined that it would be in the best
interest of all Prior Plan Participating Companies, and their respective
employees, to elect whether to continue to be a Participating Company under the
Prior Plan or to establish a separate defined contribution plan. Effective as of
January 1, 1989, the Board of Directors of Ogden Projects, Inc. determined that
it was in the best interest of Ogden Projects, Inc., its subsidiaries,
affiliated companies and the employees of such companies, to adopt the Plan,
such plan being substantially similar to and a continuation of, the Prior Plan.
All service credited to an individual as a participant under the Prior Plan was
credited to such individual under the Plan; provided, that such individual
became a participant of the Plan on or after January 1, 1989, and further
provided, that such service was credited solely in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Plan. With the adoption of the Plan, the trustee of the Prior
Plan Trust segregated a proportional share of the assets of the Prior Plan
Trust, including any earnings, and transferred such assets to the trustee of the
Plan's trust to be held in trust for the participants of the Prior Plan who
continue to be participants of the Plan. By letter dated June 19, 1991, the
District Director of Internal Revenue, Baltimore, Maryland determined that (i)
the adoption of the Plan and its related trust, (ii) the spinoff and transfer of
assets and liabilities from the Prior Plan and Prior Plan Trust to the Plan and
the Plan's trust, and (iii) the crediting of service, as described herein,
satisfied the requirements of Sections 401(a), 401(k) and 501(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986.

         (b) Subsequent to the issuance of the District Director's favorable
determination letter, effective December 31, 1991, the Ogden Environmental
Services ("OES") Profit Sharing Plan (the "OES Plan") merged with the Plan.
After the merger of the OES Plan, the employees of Ogden Yorkshire Water Co.
became eligible to participate in the Plan.

         (c) As a result of the enactment of the Unemployment Compensation
Amendments of 1992, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, as well as
the adoption of miscellaneous administrative and operational changes, the Plan
was amended and restated. By letter dated June 15, 1995, the District Director
of Internal Revenue, Brooklyn, New York, again determined that the Plan, as so
amended and restated, continued to comply with the requirements of Sections
401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as then in effect.

         1.3 The Plan, as set forth herein, constitutes a restatement of the
Plan through December 31, 2001. This restatement is generally effective January
1, 1998 and includes amendments to conform with the requirements of the (i)
Uruguay Round Agreements Act of 1994, (ii) Uniform Service Employment and
Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, (iii) Small Business Job Protection Act of
1996, (iv) Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, (v) Surface Transportation Revenue Act
of 1998, (vi) Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998 and
(vii) Community Renewal Tax Relief Act of 2000, and other applicable laws,
regulations, notices, and announcements. Accordingly, notwithstanding the
general effective date of this amendment and restatement, certain Plan
provisions are effective as of the date indicated in the text contained herein.

         1.4 The rights of any person (including such person's beneficiaries)
who terminated employment or who retired on or before the effective date of the
Plan, as amended and restated herein, or of a particular amendment, including
his eligibility for benefits and the time and form in which benefits, if any,
will be paid, shall be determined solely under the terms of the Plan as in
effect on the date of his termination of employment or retirement, unless such
person is thereafter reemployed and again becomes a participant of the Plan.

                            SECTION 3. PARTICIPATION

was terminated, then upon his reemployment with the Employer, his Hours of
Service completed prior to his termination of Service shall be immediately
reinstated. If he had fulfilled the requirements of Section 3.1 at the time of

all purposes under the Plan and become a Participant as provided in Section 3.1.

         3.5 The Administrative Committee shall establish and maintain or cause

the Plan and the terms of the Trust Agreement.

         3.6 The establishment and maintenance of, or allocations and credits
to, the Account of any Participant shall not vest in any Participant any right,
title or interest in and to any Plan assets or benefits except at the time or
times and upon the terms and conditions and to the extent expressly set forth in
the Plan and in accordance with the terms of the Trust.

                   SECTION 4. SALARY REDUCTION CONTRIBUTIONS
                           AND VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS

         4.1 (a) A Participant may elect to reduce his Compensation by an amount
not less than one percent and not more than ten percent of such Compensation for
a Plan Year in any whole percentage in accordance with procedures adopted by the
Administrative Committee, and the Employer shall contribute such amount to the
Plan on behalf of the Participant as a Salary Reduction Contribution. (i)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Salary Reduction Contributions in any
calendar year shall not exceed $10,500, as adjusted, for years beginning after
December 31, 1999, for increases in the cost of living in accordance with
Section 402(g)(5) of the Code. In the event that the aggregate amount of Salary
Reduction Contributions for a Participant exceeds the limitation in the previous
sentence, the amount of such excess, increased by any gains and decreased by any
losses attributable thereto, shall be refunded to the Participant no later than
the April 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year for which the
Salary Reduction Contributions were made. If a Participant also participates, in
any calendar year, in any other plans subject to the limitation set forth in
Section 402(g) of the Code and has made deferrals under the Plan when combined
with the other plans subject to such limits in excess of the limitation
described above, to the extent the Participant designates, in writing submitted
to the Administrative Committee no later than the March 1 of the calendar year
following the calendar year for which the Salary Reduction Contributions were
made, any Salary Reduction Contributions under the Plan as excess deferrals, the
amount of such designated excess, increased by any gains and decreased by any
losses attributable thereto, shall be refunded to the Participant no later than
the April 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year for which the
Salary Reduction Contributions were made. The amount of such excess gains or
losses is determined by multiplying the gain or loss for the calendar year
allocable to the excess deferrals of the Participant by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the excess deferral amount made by the Participant for the
calendar year and the denominator of which is the balance of the Salary
Reduction Contribution Account as of the end of such calendar year, without
regard to any gain or loss, allocable to such Account for the calendar year. The
gain or loss allocable to the excess deferrals for the period between the end of
the Plan Year and the distribution date shall be equal to 10% of the income
allocated to such excess deferrals for the Plan Year multiplied by the number of
calendar months which have elapsed since the end of the Plan Year. For purposes
of determining the number of calendar months, a distribution occurring on or
before the 15th day of the month will be treated as having been made on the last
day of the preceding month, a distribution made after the 15th day of the month
will be treated as having been made on the first day of the next month. The
amount of excess deferrals that may be distributed pursuant to this Section
4.1(a) with respect to a Participant shall be reduced by any Excess
Contributions previously distributed with respect to the Participant for the
Plan Year beginning with or within the calendar year to which such excess
deferrals relate.

             (b) (i) Effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1,
1997, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.1, the Actual
Deferral Percentage for the Plan Year for Highly Compensated Employees shall not
exceed the greater of the following actual deferral percentage tests: (A) the
Actual Deferral Percentage for the preceding Plan Year of those Eligible
Employees who are not Highly Compensated Employees multiplied by 1.25, or (B)
the Actual Deferral Percentage for the preceding Plan Year of those Eligible
Employees who are not Highly Compensated Employees multiplied by 2.0; provided
that the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees does not
exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage for such other Eligible Employees by more
than two percentage points. A Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution will
be taken into account under the actual deferral percentage test, as described
herein, for a Plan Year only if such contribution relates to Compensation that
either would have been received by the Employee during the Plan Year, but for
the election pursuant to Section 4.1(a), or is attributable to Service performed
by the Employee during the Plan Year and would have been received by the
Employee within two and one-half months after the close of the Plan Year, but
for the election pursuant to Section 4.1(a). A Salary Reduction Contribution
will be taken into account under the actual deferral percentage test for a Plan
Year only if it is allocated to the Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution
Account as of a date within such Plan Year. For purposes of the actual deferral
percentage test described herein, a Salary Reduction Contribution will be
considered allocated within a Plan Year if such allocation is not contingent on
participation or the performance of Service after such date and the
Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution is actually paid to the Trust no
later than 12 months after the Plan Year to which such contribution relates. An
Eligible Employee's Actual Deferral Ratio shall be zero if no Salary Reduction
Contributions are made on his behalf for such Plan Year. If the Plan and one or
more other plans which include cash or deferred arrangements are considered as
one plan for purposes of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) of the Code, the cash or
deferred arrangements included in such plans shall be treated as one arrangement
for purposes of this Section 4.1(b). The Actual Deferral Ratio taken into
account under this Section 4.1(b) for any Highly Compensated Employee who is a
participant under two or more Section 401(k) of the Code cash or deferred
arrangements of the Employer shall be determined as if all such Section 401(k)
cash or deferred arrangements were treated as one Section 401(k) cash or
deferred arrangement.

             (ii) The Administrative Committee shall determine as of the end of
the Plan Year, and at such time or times in its discretion, whether one of the
actual deferral percentage tests specified in Section 4.1(b)(i) is satisfied for
such Plan Year. This determination shall be made after first determining the
treatment of excess deferrals within the meaning of Section 402(g) of the Code
under Section 4.1(a). The Administrative Committee may, in its sole discretion,
and without the consent of a Participant, reduce or suspend the Salary Reduction
Contributions of a Highly Compensated Employee, or return excess Salary
Reduction Contributions, such Contributions increased by any income and
decreased by any losses to the extent necessary to satisfy one of the actual
deferral percentage tests. In the event that neither of such actual deferral
percentage tests is satisfied, the Administrative Committee shall, to the extent
permissible under the Code and IRS Regulations, refund the Excess Contributions
in the manner calculated in accordance with this Section 4.1(b)(ii) and
described in Section 4.1(b)(iii). The amount of Excess Contributions
attributable to each such Highly Compensated Participant shall be calculated by
reducing Salary Reduction Contributions made by, or on behalf of, the Highly
Compensated Participant who has made the greatest Salary Reduction Contributions
with respect to such Plan Year (or, in the event that more than one Highly
Compensated Participant shall have made Salary Reduction Contributions of an
equal amount, the Salary Reduction Contributions of each such Highly Compensated
Participant) shall be reduced so that the Salary Reduction Contribution of such
Highly Compensated Participant (or Highly Compensated Participants, as the case
may be) shall equal the Salary Reduction Contributions with respect to such Plan
Year of the Highly Compensated Participant (or Highly Compensated Participants,
as the case may be) who shall have made the next greatest Salary Reductions
Contributions with respect to such Plan Year, and an amount equal to the amount
of reduction (or reductions, as the case may be) shall be distributed to such
Highly Compensated Participant (or Highly Compensated Participants, as the case
may be) in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1(b)(iii), provided,
however, that the amount to be distributed shall in no event exceed the Excess
Contributions. In the event that the amount of Excess Contributions attributed
to the Highly Compensated Participant who shall have made the greatest Salary
Reduction Contributions with respect to such Plan Year is less than the Excess
Contributions, then further reductions shall be made in accordance with the
provisions of the previous sentence of this Section 4.1(b)(ii) until such time
as the amount allocated to each such Highly Compensated Participant and
distributed to such participants in accordance with Section 4.1(b)(iii) shall
equal the Excess Contributions.

             (iii) If required in order to comply with the provisions of Section
4.l(b)(i) and the Code, then the Administrative Committee shall refund Excess
Contributions for a Plan Year. The distribution of such Excess Contributions
shall be made to Highly Compensated Participants to the extent practicable
before the 15th day of the third month immediately following the Plan Year for
which such Excess Contributions were made, but in no event later than the end of
the Plan Year following such Plan Year or, in the case of the termination of the
Plan in accordance with Section 16, no later than the end of the 12-month period
immediately following the date of such termination. Any such distribution shall
be made to each Highly Compensated Participant on the basis of the amounts
attributable to each such Highly Compensated Participant determined under
Section 4.1(b)(ii). The distribution of any Excess Contributions shall include
the gains and losses allocable thereto for the Plan Year as well as for the
period between the end of the Plan Year and the date of the distribution. The
gain or loss allocable to Excess Contributions for a Plan Year is the gain or
loss allocable to the Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution Account (and
the portion of his Employer Contribution Account included in the actual deferral
percentage test, if any) for the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the Participant's Salary Reduction Contributions for the
year (and his Employer Contribution Account to the extent included in the actual
deferral percentage test) and the denominator of which is the Participant's
Salary Reduction Contribution Account (and his Employer Contribution Account to
the extent included in the actual deferral percentage test) as of the end of
such Plan Year without regard to any gain or loss for the Plan Year. The gain or
loss allocable to the Excess Contributions for the period between the end of the
Plan Year and the distribution date is equal to 10% of the income allocated to
such Excess Contributions for the Plan Year multiplied by the number of calendar
months which have elapsed since the end of the Plan Year. For purposes of
determining the number of calendar months, a distribution occurring on or before
the 15th day of the month will be treated as having been made on the last day of
the preceding month, a distribution made after the 15th day of the month will be
treated as having been made on the first day of the next month. In the event
Salary Reduction Contributions which have been the basis for amounts allocated
to the Employer Contribution Account of a Highly Compensated Employee are
refunded for a Plan Year, such amounts contributed to the Employer Contribution
Account (whether or not fully vested), plus earnings thereon, shall be forfeited
and shall be used to reduce Employer Contributions in accordance with Section
5.1(c).

             (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
4.1(b), the amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed pursuant to
Sections 4.1(b)(ii) and 4.1(b)(iii) with respect to a Highly Compensated
Employee for a Plan Year, shall be reduced by any excess deferrals distributed
to such Participant for such Plan Year pursuant to Section 4.1(a). In no case
may the amount of such distributed Excess Contributions exceed the amount of
Salary Reduction Contributions made on behalf of the Highly Compensated Employee
for the Plan Year.

             (c) Prior to January 1, 1998, a Participant may elect to make
Voluntary Contributions to the Plan of an amount of up to ten percent of his
Compensation in any whole percentage through payroll deductions, in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Administrative Committee. Effective January 1,
1998, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, a Participant may not elect nor
continue to make Voluntary Contributions to the Plan. Any Voluntary
Contributions made by a Participant on or before December 31, 1997, credited to
his or her Voluntary Contribution Account, shall remain in such Voluntary
Contribution Account and will continue to be adjusted for any earnings, losses
and expenses in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan.

             (d) (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the sum of
the Actual Deferral Percentage determined in accordance with Section 4.l(b)(i)
of those Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees and the Actual
Contribution Percentage determined in accordance with Section 5.1(d)(i) of those
Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees shall not exceed the
Aggregate Limit.

             (ii) The Administrative Committee shall determine as of the end of
the Plan Year, and at such time or times in its discretion whether the Aggregate
Limit has been exceeded. This determination shall be made after first
determining the treatment of excess deferrals within the meaning of Section
402(g) of the Code under Section 4.1(a), then determining the treatment of
Excess Contributions under Section 4.1(b), and then determining the treatment of
Excess Aggregate Contributions under Section 5.1(d). In the event that the
Aggregate Limit is exceeded, the Actual Contribution Percentage of those
Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees shall be reduced in the
sole discretion of the Committee in a uniform, nondiscriminatory manner until
the Aggregate Limit is no longer exceeded.

         4.2 A Participant may suspend Salary Reduction Contributions made on
his behalf or change the rate of the reduction of his Compensation pursuant to
Section 4.1 upward or downward within the percentage limitations set forth in
Section 4.1, without terminating his participation in the Plan, upon advance
written or electronic notice thereof to the Administrative Committee or its
designee. Such change or suspension shall be effective as soon as practicable,
but in no event later than two payroll periods following notice of such change
or suspension. A Participant may change the rate of the reduction of his
Compensation once every payroll period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
Participant may suspend the reduction of his Compensation pursuant to Section
4.1 at any time by notifying the Administrative Committee or its designee,
electronically, no later than the Thursday prior to the payroll period such
suspension is to be effective. The Administrative Committee or its designee may,
in its sole discretion and in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner, (i) waive
its right to any such written notice at any time and from time to time and, upon
written notice to the Highly Compensated Participants, (ii) suspend or reduce
the Salary Reduction Contributions of Highly Compensated Participants, if such
suspension or reduction is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section
4.1(b), the Code or the Act.

         4.3 All Salary Reduction Contributions made on behalf of a Participant
shall be delivered by the Employer to the Trustee by the 15th Business Day of
the month following the month in which such amounts would otherwise have been
payable to the Participant in cash, to be commingled, managed, invested and
reinvested with the other assets of the Plan. Such Salary Reduction
Contributions shall be credited by the Administrative Committee to the
Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution Account which the Administrative
Committee shall establish and maintain or cause to be established and maintained
as part of the Participant's Account in accordance with Section 3.4.

         4.4 The amount credited to a Participant's Salary Reduction
Contribution Account shall be paid from the Trust Fund to the Participant or his
Beneficiary or Surviving Spouse at the same time and in the same manner as any
payment made in accordance with Section 10.

         4.5 (a) A Participant may make a Rollover Contribution to the Plan at
any time of a Qualified Plan Rollover Contribution or an Individual Retirement
Account Rollover Contribution. The Plan will also accept a Direct Rollover of an
amount paid to the Plan on behalf of a Participant an which would qualify as an
Qualified Plan Rollover Contribution if paid to the Eligible Employee. If the
Participant elects to make a Rollover Contribution, the Participant shall supply
the Administrative Committee with evidence, assurances, opinions and
certifications it may deem necessary to establish to its satisfaction that the
amounts to be contributed qualify as a Qualified Plan Rollover Contribution, an
Individual Retirement Account Rollover Contribution or a Direct Rollover and
will not affect the qualification of the Plan or the tax-exempt status of the
Trust under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code, respectively. The amount so
transferred must consist of cash distributed from such other plan or any portion
of the cash proceeds from the sale of distributed property other than cash, to
the extent permitted by Section 402(c)(6) of the Code.

             (b) Any Rollover Contribution shall be allocated to the appropriate
Participant's Rollover Contribution Account which shall be established and
separately accounted for, shall be invested in accordance with the direction of
the Participant pursuant to Section 6, be debited or credited in accordance with
Section 7, and shall be distributed in the same manner and at the same time as
described in Sections 8 and 10 with respect to a distribution of benefits under
the Plan to such Participant.

             (c) Each request by the Participant to make a Rollover Contribution
shall be subject to review by the Administrative Committee which shall make a
case by case determination that each Rollover Contribution meets the
requirements set forth in Section 4.5(a) and such other requirements or
conditions as the Administrative Committee may, from time to time and in its
sole discretion, impose; provided, however, that any determination made by the
Administrative Committee pursuant to this Section 4.5(c) shall not have the
effect of discriminating in favor of Employees who are officers, shareholders or
Highly Compensated Employees.

                       SECTION 5. EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS

         5.1 (a) The Employer, in its sole discretion, may contribute an amount
from time to time that is based upon the Participant's Salary Reduction
Contributions that are made on behalf of each Participant pursuant to Section
4.1(a).

             (b) In addition to the contributions under Section 4.1 and Section
5.1(a), the Company and the Participating Company may contribute additional
amounts from time to time, (either a fixed dollar amount or a percentage of
total Compensation earned by the Eligible Employees of the Company or of the
Participating Company, who were Participants for a Plan Year), as may be
determined in a nondiscriminatory manner by the Board of Directors or the board
of directors of the respective Participating Company in its sole discretion.
Such amount or percentage, if any, shall be determined by resolution of the
Board of Directors or the board of directors of such Participating Company as
soon as practical following the close of the Plan Year. The resolution fixing
the annual contributions of the Company or of the Participating Company, duly
certified by the Secretary or Assistance Secretary of the Company, shall be
delivered to the Trustee, as soon as practicable following the close of the Plan
Year. In no event shall any contribution by the Company or by a Participating
Company exceed the amount deductible by it for federal income tax purposes. On
or about the date of determining the annual contribution, the Administrative
Committee shall be advised of the amount of such annual contribution upon which
its allocation is to be calculated. Any Company contribution or Participating
Company contributions made hereunder shall be reduced to the extent necessary to
comply with the requirements of Section 415 of the Code.

             (c) The amount of any forfeitures shall first, be used to pay
administrative expenses of the Plan, second, be used to reduce the amount of
Employer Contributions required for each Plan Year pursuant to Section 5.1(b),
and third, be used to reduce the amount of Employer Contributions required for
each Plan Year pursuant to Section 5.1(a). For purposes of this Section 5.1(c),
all Participants of the Employer shall be treated as Eligible Employees of a
single employer.

             (d) (i) Effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1,
1997, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.1, the actual
contribution percentage for the Plan Year for Highly Compensated Employees shall
not exceed the greater of the following actual contribution percentage tests:
(A) the actual contribution percentage for the preceding Plan Year of those
Eligible Employees who are not Highly Compensated Employees multiplied by 1.25,
or (B) the actual contribution percentage for the preceding Plan Year of those
Eligible Employees who are not Highly Compensated Employees multiplied by 2.0;
provided that the actual contribution percentage for Highly Compensated
Employees does not exceed the actual contribution percentage for such other
Eligible Employees by more than two percentage points. An Eligible Employee's
Actual Contribution Percentage shall be zero if no contributions are made on his
behalf for such Plan Year. If the Plan and one or more other plans of the
Employer to which Salary Reduction Contributions, Voluntary Contributions or
Employer Contributions are made are treated as one plan for purposes of Sections
401(a)(4) and 410(b) of the Code, all Salary Reduction Contributions, Voluntary
Contributions or Employer Contributions of such plans shall be treated as being
made under a single plan for purposes of this Section 5.1(d). The Actual
Contribution Ratio taken into account under this Section 5.1(d) for any Highly
Compensated Employee who is eligible to make Voluntary Contributions or receive
Employer Contributions under two or more plans described in Section 401(a) of
the Code or arrangements described in Section 401(k) of the Code that are
maintained by the Employer shall be determined as if all such contributions were
made under a single plan. The determination and treatment of the Actual
Contribution Ratio of any Participant shall satisfy such other requirements as
may be required by the IRS Regulations.

             (ii) The Administrative Committee shall determine as of the end of
the Plan Year, and at such time or times in its discretion, whether one of the
actual contribution percentage tests specified in Section 5.1(d)(i) is satisfied
for such Plan Year. This determination shall be made after first determining the
treatment of excess deferrals within the meaning of Section 402(g) of the Code
under Section 4.1(a) and then determining the treatment of Excess Contributions
under Section 4.1(b). In the event that neither of the actual contribution
percentage tests is satisfied, the Administrative Committee shall refund or
forfeit the Excess Aggregate Contributions in the manner calculated in
accordance with Section 5.1(d)(i) and described in Section 5.1(d)(iii). The
amount of Excess Aggregate Contribution attributable to each such Participant
shall be calculated by reducing the Excess Aggregate Contribution made by, or on
behalf of the Participant who has made or been credited with the greatest Excess
Aggregate Contribution with respect to such Plan Year (or, in the event that
more than one Participant shall have made or been credited with Excess Aggregate
Contributions of an equal amount, the Excess Aggregate Contribution of each such
Participant) shall be reduced so that the Excess Aggregate Contribution of such
Participant (or Participants, as the case may be) shall equal the Excess
Aggregate Contribution with respect to such Plan Year of the Participant who
shall have made or been credited with the next greatest Excess Aggregate
Contribution with respect to such Plan Year, and an amount equal to the amount
of reduction (or reductions, as the case may be) shall be refunded or forfeited
in accordance with Section 5.1(d)(iii), provided, however, that the amount to be
refunded or forfeited shall in no event exceed the Excess Aggregate
Contributions. In the event that the amount of Excess Aggregate Contributions
attributed to the Participant who shall have made or been credited with the
greatest Excess Aggregate Contributions with respect to such Plan Year is less
than the Excess Aggregate Contributions, then further reductions shall be made
in accordance with the provisions of the previous sentence of this Section
5.1(d)(ii) until such time as the amount allocated to each such Participant and
forfeited or refunded in accordance with Section 5.1(d)(iii) shall equal the
Excess Aggregate Contributions.

             (iii) If the Administrative Committee is required to refund or
forfeit Excess Aggregate Contributions for any Highly Compensated Participant
for a Plan Year in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 5.1(d)(i), then
the refund or forfeiture of such Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be made
with respect to such Highly Compensated Participants to the extent practicable
before the 15th day of the third month immediately following the Plan Year for
which such Excess Aggregate Contributions were made, but in no event later than
the end of the Plan Year following such Plan Year or, in the case of the
termination of the Plan in accordance with Section 16, no later than the end of
the 12-month period immediately following the date of such termination. For each
such Participant, amounts so refunded or forfeited shall be made in the
following order of priority: (A) by distributing amounts contributed to the
Voluntary Contribution Account, and earnings thereon; and (B) by distributing
amounts contributed to the Salary Reduction Contribution Account (to the extent
such amounts are included in the actual contribution percentage), and earnings
thereon, including amounts contributed to the Employer Contribution Account, and
earnings thereon, to the extent such amounts were based on Salary Reduction
Contributions so distributed. However, in no case may the amount of Excess
Aggregate Contributions refunded or forfeited with respect to any Highly
Compensated Employee exceed the amount of Voluntary Contributions and Employer
Contributions under Section 5.1(a) made on behalf of the Highly Compensated
Employee for the Plan Year. All such distributions and forfeitures shall be made
to, or shall be with respect to, Highly Compensated Participants on the basis of
the amounts attributable to each such Highly Compensated Participant as
determined under Section 5.1(d)(ii). The distribution of any Excess Aggregate
Contributions shall include the gains and losses allocable thereto for the Plan
Year as well as for the period between the end of the Plan Year and the date of
the distribution. The gain or loss allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions
is the gain or loss allocable to the Participant's Employer Contribution Account
attributable to contributions under Section 5.1(a) and his Voluntary
Contributions Account to the extent not included in the actual deferral
percentage test multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess
Aggregate Contribution for the Participant for the Plan Year and the denominator
is the Participant's Employer Contribution Account attributable to contributions
under Section 5.1(a) and Voluntary Contributions at the end of such Plan Year,
without regard to gains and losses attributable to such Accounts for the Plan
Year. The gain or loss allocable to the Excess Aggregate Contributions for the
period between the end of the Plan Year and the distribution date is equal to
10% of the income allocated to such Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan
Year multiplied by the number of calendar months which have elapsed since the
end of the Plan Year. For purpose of determining the number of calendar months,
a distribution occurring on or before the 15th day of the month will be treated
as having been made on the last day of the preceding month, a distribution made
after the 15th day of the month will be treated as having been made on the first
day of the next month.

         5.2 Employer Contributions under Section 5.1(a) shall be allocated each
month to the Employer Contribution Account of each Employee who participates in
the Plan based upon the Salary Reduction Contribution made on behalf of such
Employee pursuant to Section 4.1(a) during such month. Employer Contributions
under Section 5.1(b) shall be allocated as of the last day of the Plan Year to
the Employer Contribution Accounts of each Participant who (i) has completed one
Hour of Service and was in Service as of the last day of the Plan Year or (ii)
retired on or after his Normal Retirement Date, Early Retirement Date, after
becoming Disabled or (iii) died, during such Plan Year in the proportion that
each Participant 's Compensation bears to the total Compensation of all
Participants in Service as of the last day of the Plan Year.

         5.3 The Employer Contributions under Section 5.1(a) shall be paid
directly to the Trustee as soon as practicable but in no event later than the
month next following the month in which the amount of such contribution is
determinable, as the Administrative Committee may determine, and the Employer
Contributions, if any, under Section 5.1(b) shall be paid as soon as practicable
to the Trustee following the approval of such contribution by the Board of
Directors or the board of directors of the Participating Company, as the case
may be; provided that the total amount of the Employer Contributions under the
Plan for any taxable year shall be paid in full on or before such date as the
federal income tax laws applicable to such payment require the payment to be
made in order to permit deduction of such payment for such taxable year.

         5.4 The Salary Reduction Contributions made for a taxable year pursuant
to Section 4.1(a), and the Employer Contributions made for a taxable year
pursuant to Section 5.1 and the Participants' Voluntary Contributions under
Section 4.1(c), and the Participant's Rollover Contributions made pursuant to
Section 4.5, shall be paid directly by the Employer to the Trustee in cash, or,
at the option of the Employer, in whole or in part in other property acceptable
to the Trustee. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent allocable to the
Company Stock Fund, such contributions may be made in whole or part in shares of
appropriate capital stock of the Company.

         5.5 If any Participating Company, which is a member of the affiliated
group (within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code) and which is permitted to
file a consolidated federal income tax return with the Company, is prevented
from making its allocable share of the contribution which it would otherwise
have made under the Plan, by reason of having insufficient Net Profit, then so
much of the contribution of such Participating Company which it was so prevented
from making shall be made, for the benefit of the Participants who are Employees
of such Participating Company, by the other Employers which are members of such
affiliated group to the extent of their respective Net Profit remaining after
deduction of their respective contributions under the Plan or any other plan for
the benefit of their employees, as may be provided by resolution of the Board of
Directors and the board of directors of each affected Participating Company.

         5.6 Any contribution made by an Employer because of a mistake of fact
shall be returned to the Employer which made such contribution within one year
of such contribution. Any contribution made by an Employer that is conditioned
upon the contribution's deductibility or the Plan's initial qualification under
the Code, and if either the deduction or the initial qualification is denied,
such contribution shall be returned to the Employer which made such contribution
within one year after the date such deduction or qualification is denied.

                     SECTION 6. INVESTMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS

         6.1 All amounts of money, securities or other property received under
the Plan shall be delivered to the Trustee to be managed, invested, reinvested
and distributed for the exclusive benefit of the Participants and their
Beneficiaries in accordance with the Plan, the Trust and any agreement with an
insurance company or other financial institution constituting a part of the Plan
and the Trust. The Administrative Committee reserves the right to create and
terminate any Investment Fund for the investment of the Trust Fund in the
future.

         6.2 The Investment Funds shall consist of registered investment
company, corporation, partnership or trust registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. Interest, dividends and other distributions received and
gains realized on securities or other property held in any Investment Fund shall
be similarly invested in such Investment Fund.

         6.3 Sums received for investment in the Company Stock Fund shall be
invested and reinvested, without distinction between principal and income, in
shares of Common Stock, subject to the limitations of Section 6.6 and, to the
extent the Investment Committee deems advisable, held in cash or invested in
short-term investments including, without limitation, interest bearing accounts
and accounts which do not bear interest at banks and savings and loan
associations. All dividends on the shares of Common Stock or any other
securities held in the Company Stock Fund shall be added to the Company Stock
Fund, and to the extent necessary, Accounts in the Company Stock Fund shall be
adjusted accordingly as of the date the dividend is paid. Cash dividends shall
be reinvested in shares of Common Stock as soon as is practicable after receipt
by the Trustee. Dividends in property other than cash or shares of Common Stock
may continue to be held in the Company Stock Fund, may be sold and reinvested in
shares of Common Stock, may be transferred to another appropriate Investment
Fund, or may be distributed to the Participants in the Company Stock Fund as of
the date such dividend is declared, all as the Administrative Committee shall
determine, in its discretion.

         6.4 (a) Each Participant, upon electing to reduce his Compensation
pursuant to Section 4.1, shall designate the Investment Fund or Funds in which
the Employer Contributions and Salary Reduction Contributions made on his behalf
and Rollover and Voluntary Contributions shall be invested. Each Participant
upon making a Rollover Contribution shall designate the Investment Funds in
which his Rollover Contributions shall be invested until such time as the
Participant changes his investment election pursuant to Section 6.4(b). The
amount of the Participant's Salary Reduction Contributions, Employer
Contributions and Voluntary Contributions shall be invested uniformly in the
Investment Funds designated pursuant to this Section 6.4(a) until such time as
the Participant changes his investment election pursuant to Section 6.4(b). The
Investment Fund or Funds designated by the Participant pursuant to this Section
6.4(a) must be designated in multiples of one percent of all contributions
subject to designation pursuant to Sections 6.4. If the Participant fails to
designate any Investment Fund, then such Participant's Account shall be invested
in the Investment Fund designated by the Administrative Committee as a "money
market" fund.

             (b) Any investment direction given by a Participant shall be deemed
to be a continuing direction until changed. A Participant may change an
investment direction as to future contributions, past contributions with
earnings and gains thereon in multiples of one percent, pursuant to the T. Rowe
Price Associates, Inc. Telephone Procedures and Voice Response System or through
the use of the T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. internet website dedicated to the
Plan. Investment Fund election changes that are requested before 4 P.M., Eastern
Time on a Business Day, are effective on the same Business Day; Investment Fund
election changes that are requested on or after 4 P.M., Eastern Time on a
Business Day, are effective on the next Business Day; and Investment Fund
election changes that are requested on any day other than a Business Day are
effective on the next Business Day. Each Participant is solely responsible for
the selection of his investment options and the availability of an Investment
Fund or Funds to Participants for investment under the Plan shall not be
construed as a recommendation for investment in such Investment Fund or Funds.

         6.5 Each Participant whose interest in the Plan is invested in whole or
in part in the Company Stock Fund, shall have the right to direct the Trustee
with respect to any voting and tender of the shares of Common Stock in such
Investment Fund allocated to the Salary Reduction Contribution Account,
Voluntary Contribution Account, Rollover Contribution Account, and the Employer
Contribution Account of such Participant under the Plan as of the record date
for such voting or date of tender. Such right to direct the Trustee with respect
to voting may be exercisable by means of direct voting of specified shares by
Participants, by means of instruction to the Trustee by Participants or by any
other method, as the Trustee, in its discretion, shall determine.

         6.6 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company in its
discretion at any time may limit the aggregate value of the Plan that may be
invested in Common Stock. If the Company establishes such a limit and the
Company or the Investment Administrative Committee later determines that the
limit might be exceeded, the Investment Committee may direct that no further
assets of the Plan be invested in the Company Stock Fund.

                    SECTION 7. VALUATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF
                             PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS

         7.1 (a) As of each Valuation Date and after giving effect to any
hardship withdrawal under Section 12, any loan under Section 13, any Rollover
Contribution or transfer under Appendix A, the Trust Fund shall be valued
pursuant to the terms of the Trust to reflect the effect of income received and
accrued, realized and unrealized profits and losses, and all other transactions
of the preceding period. Such valuation shall be conclusive and binding upon all
persons having an interest in the Trust Fund. The Trustee shall value the Trust
Fund at its fair market value as of the close of business on the last day of
each Plan Year. As soon as practicable after such valuation, but in no case more
than six months after the end of such Plan Year, the Trustee shall deliver in
writing to the Investment Committee a certified report of such valuation
together with a statement of the amount of net income or loss, including
appreciation or depreciation in value of trust investments, since the previous
valuation.

             (b) With respect to the valuation of the Common Stock held in the
Company Stock Fund, the cash withheld from Participants shall be delivered to
the Trustee as soon as practicable. Upon receipt of such cash, the Trustee shall
purchase shares in the Company Stock Fund as may be needed and as soon as
practicable. The shares purchased shall be valued under the Plan at the closing
price as of the next succeeding Valuation Date. Subsequent to the valuation of
shares upon first entering the Company Stock Fund, such shares shall be valued
at the closing price as of each Valuation Date thereafter.

         7.2 All contributions made on behalf of, or allocated to, a Participant
shall be credited to his Account. The value of a Participant's Account shall be
determined by aggregating the value of his separate interests, if any, in each
Investment Fund. Except to the extent otherwise determined by the Administrative
Committee with respect to payments from a Participant's Salary Reduction
Contribution Account, Employer Contribution Account, Voluntary Contribution
Account, and Rollover Contribution Account, adjustments, charges or allocations
to the Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution Account, Employer
Contribution Account, Voluntary Contribution Account, or Rollover Contribution
Account shall be made by adding to, or deducting from, as the case may be, the
Salary Reduction Contribution Account, Employer Contribution Account, Voluntary
Contribution Account, or Rollover Contribution Account such proportion of any
adjustment or charge as the amount in the Salary Reduction Contribution Account,
Employer Contribution Account, Voluntary Contribution Account, or Rollover
Contribution Account as of the last preceding Valuation Date bears to the total
amount in the Participant's Account as of such preceding Valuation Date. In
making such adjustments or charges, the Administrative Committee may
conclusively rely on the valuations of the Trust Fund by the Trustee and in
accordance with the Plan and the terms of the Trust.

         7.3 The Administrative Committee shall have complete discretion to
establish and utilize an accounting system to account for the interests of each
Participant. To the extent permitted by the Code and IRS Regulations, the
Administrative Committee may change the accounting system from time to time.

         7.4 The expenses of administering the Plan, including (i) the fees and
expenses of (A) any Employee, (B) the Trustee and (C) any Investment Manager for
the performance of their duties under the Plan and the Trust, (ii) the expenses
incurred by the members of the Administrative Committee and of the Investment
Committee in the performance of their duties under the Plan (including
reasonable compensation for any legal counsel, certified public accountants,
consultants, and agents and cost of services rendered in respect of the Plan),
and (iii) all other proper charges and disbursements of the Trustee or members
of either the Administrative Committee or the Investment Committee (including
settlements of claims or legal actions approved by counsel to the Plan) may be
paid out of the Trust Fund, and allocated to and deducted from the Participants'
Accounts by the Administrative Committee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 7.2 above, if the Company does not pay such expenses directly.

         7.5 Brokerage fees, transfer taxes and any other expenses incident to
the purchase or sale of securities by the Trustee may be deemed to be part of
the cost of such securities, or deducted in computing the proceeds therefrom, as
the case may be. Taxes, if any, of any and all kinds whatsoever which are levied
or assessed on any assets held or income received by the Trustee shall be
allocated to and deducted from the Accounts of Participants by the
Administrative Committee in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 above.

                      SECTION 8. ELIGIBILITY FOR BENEFITS

         8.1 (a) Upon the death of a Participant while an Employee, benefits
equal to the value of the Participant's Account (reduced by any unpaid loans) as
of the Valuation Date coincident with or next following the date of his death
shall be payable to the Beneficiary of such Participant (as determined in
Section 11) from the Trust by a method of distribution described and at the time
specified in Section 10; provided that the Administrative Committee has received
all the necessary forms from the Beneficiary.

             (b) If a former Employee who was a Participant dies before payment
of the full value of his Account from the Trust Fund, an amount equal to the
value of the unpaid portion thereof (reduced by any unpaid loans) as of the
Valuation Date coincident with or next following the date of his death shall be
paid to the Beneficiary of such former Participant (as determined under Section
11) in accordance with a method of distribution described and at the time
specified in Section 10; provided that the Administrative Committee has received
all necessary forms from the Beneficiary.

         8.2 Upon termination of a Participant's Service on or after his Normal
Retirement Date, his Early Retirement Date or by reason of his Disability and
subject to Sections 10.2 and 10.4, a benefit equal to the value of the
Participant's Account (reduced by any unpaid loans) as of the Valuation Date
coincident with or next following the date on which his Service is terminated
shall be paid from the Trust Fund; provided that the Administrative Committee
has received all the necessary forms from the Participant. Such payment shall be
made by a method of distribution described and at the time specified in Section
10.

         8.3 Upon the termination of Service of any Participant which occurs
other than on his Normal Retirement Date, his Early Retirement Date or for any
reason other than death or Disability, the Participant shall be paid an amount
equal to the value of his Account, after reduction for the amount of any unpaid
loans, as of the Valuation Date coincident with or next following the date on
which his Service is terminated, of the sum of the Participant's (i) Salary
Reduction Contribution Account, (ii) Voluntary Contribution Account, (iii)
Vested Interest in his Employer Contribution Account, and (iv) Rollover
Contribution Account; provided the Administrative Committee receives all of the
necessary forms from the Participant. Such distribution shall be made as soon as
practicable thereafter by a method of distribution described and at the time
specified in Section 10. Any excess of the amount credited to such Participant's
Employer Contribution Account over his Vested Interest in such Account shall be
forfeited and used pursuant to Section 5.1(c).

         8.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant's Salary Reduction
Contribution Account may not be distributed earlier than upon one of the
following events:

             (a) The Participant's retirement, death, Disability or termination
                 of Service;

             (b) The termination of the Plan without the establishment or
                 maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an
                 employee stock ownership plan or a simplified employee plan);

             (c) The Participant's attainment of age 59-1/2 or upon the
                 Participant's hardship, if so permitted by the Plan; or

             (d) The sale or disposition by the Employer to an unrelated
                 corporation of (i) substantially all of the assets used in a
                 trade of business or (ii) the Employer's interest in a
                 subsidiary, but only with respect to Participants who continue
                 employment with the acquiring corporation or the subsidiary, as
                 the case may be, and the acquiring corporation does not
                 maintain the Plan after the disposition.

                               SECTION 9. VESTING

         9.1 At all times, each Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to
100% of the value of his Salary Reduction Contribution Account, his Voluntary
Contribution Account and his Rollover Contribution Account, if any.

         9.2 (a) A Participant's interest in his Employer Contribution Account
shall vest according to the following vesting schedule:

                                                  Nonforfeitable
             Years of Service                       Percentage
             ----------------                       ----------

             less than 1                                 0%
             1 but less than 2                          20%
             2 but less than 3                          40%
             3 but less than 4                          60%
             4 but less than 5                          80%
             5 or more                                 100%

             (b) In the event the vesting schedule of Section 9.2(a) is amended,
any Participant who has completed at least three Years of Service, for purposes
of determining a Participant's nonforfeitable right to his Employer Contribution
Account, may elect to have the nonforfeitable percentage of such Employer
Contribution Account computed under the Plan without regard to such amendment or
change by notifying the Administrative Committee in writing within the election
period hereinafter described. The election period shall begin on the date such
amendment is adopted or the date such change is effective, as the case may be,
and shall end no earlier than the latest of the following dates: (i) the date
which is 60 days after the day such amendment is adopted; (ii) the date which is
60 days after the day such amendment or change becomes effective; or (iii) the
date which is 60 days after the day the Participant is given written notice of
such amendment or change by the Administrative Committee. Any election made
pursuant to this Section 9.2(b) shall be irrevocable.

         9.3 If a Participant receives a distribution of his Vested Interest in
his Account, the nonvested portion of the Participant's Account shall be
forfeited and shall be used pursuant to Section 5.1. However, if the Participant
returns to Service, his forfeited nonvested Account balance shall be restored if
he repays to the Plan all amounts previously distributed, in cash, before the
earlier of: (i) five years after the date on which the Participant is reemployed
by the Employer, or (ii) the date on which the Participant incurs five
consecutive one-year Breaks in Service, reinstated and recredited, if necessary,
by additional Employer Contributions by his Participating Company to the
Participant's Employer Contribution Account as of the last day of the month in
which the terminated Participant performs an Hour of Service, the last day of
the next following month or by a priority reallocations of the current
forfeitures. As of any Valuation Date thereafter, such Participant's Vested
Interest shall be determined by (i) adjusting the amount of his Account on the
date of his most recent termination of employment as if such amount had been
held in the Trust since the date of distribution as provided in Section 8, and
then (ii) multiplying his Vested Interest by such adjusted total account, and
then (iii) subtracting the amount of his distribution on his most recent
termination of employment, adjusted as if such distribution as provided in
Section 8, from his adjusted total account. Any amount repaid pursuant to this
Section 9.3 shall be invested in the Investment Funds in the proportions
selected in the most recent written election filed by the Participation with the
Administrative Committee pursuant to Section 6.

         9.4 In the case of a Participant who has five or more consecutive
one-year Breaks in Service, all Service after such Breaks in Service will be
disregarded for purposes of determining the Participant's Vested Interest in his
Employer Contribution Account that accrued prior to the first day of such Breaks
in Service. Such Participant's Service prior to such Breaks in Service will be
taken into account with regard to determining the Participant's Vested Interest
in his Employer Contribution Account which accrues after the Breaks in Service
if either(i) such Participant has any nonforfeitable interest in the Account
(other than his Rollover Contribution Account) on the first day of his Break in
Service, or (ii) upon his return to Service, the number of one-year Breaks in
Service is less than his number of Years of Service.

         9.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant or his Beneficiary,
whichever is appropriate, shall be fully vested in the entire value of the
Participant's Account upon the Participant's attainment of his Normal Retirement
Age, Early Retirement Age, or upon such Participant's Disability or death.

                   SECTION 10. METHOD OF PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

         10.1 (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8, any benefit payable
under Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 of the Plan shall be paid in one of the
following methods of distribution, as the Participant (or in the case of his
death, either the Participant or his Beneficiary as provided in Section 8.2) in
one lump sum payment from the Trust Fund.

              (b) With respect to any benefit earned or accrued on or before
December 31, 1988 under the Prior Plan, a Participant may elect either a lump
sum payment in accordance with this Section 10.1 or any method of payment which
was available under the Prior Plan as in effect on December 31, 1988 and
consisting of equal monthly, quarterly or annual installments.

              (c) If the Participant or Beneficiary fails to select a
distribution method at least 30 days prior to the date by which distribution
must commence, such benefits shall be paid in one lump sum payment.

         10.2 (a) Effective January 1, 1997, notwithstanding any other provision
of the Plan and unless otherwise provided by law, any benefit payable to a
Participant who is (i) not a Five Percent Owner, shall commence no later than
the April 1st of the calendar year following the later of (A) the calendar year
in which the Participant attains age 70 1/2 and (B) the calendar year in which
the Participant retires and (ii) a Five Percent Owner shall, except as otherwise
provided in Section 10.2(f), commence no later than the April 1st of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which such Participant attains age
70 1/2. Any benefit payable under this Section 10.2(a) shall be paid, in
accordance with IRS Regulations, over a period not extending beyond the life
expectancy of such Participant or the joint life expectancies of such
Participant and his Beneficiary. Life expectancy for purposes of this Section
shall not be recalculated annually in accordance with IRS Regulations.

              (b) If distribution of a Participant's benefit has commenced prior
to a Participant's death, and such Participant dies before his entire benefit is
distributed to him, distribution of the remaining portion of the Participant's
benefit to the Participant's Beneficiary shall be made at least as rapidly as
under the method of distribution in effect as of the date of the Participant's
death.

              (c) If a Participant dies before distribution of his benefit has
commenced, distributions to any Beneficiary shall be made on or before the
December 31st of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the
date of such Participant's death; provided, however, at the Beneficiary's
irrevocable election, duly filed with the Administrative Committee before the
applicable commencement date set forth in the following sentence, any
distribution to a Beneficiary may be made over a period not extending beyond the
life expectancy of the Beneficiary. Such distribution shall commence not later
than the December 31st of the calendar year immediately following the calendar
year in which the Participant died or, in the event such Beneficiary is the
Participant's Surviving Spouse, on or before the December 31st of the calendar
year in which such Participant would have attained age 70 1/2, if later (or, in
either case, on any later date prescribed by IRS Regulations). If such
Participant's Surviving Spouse dies after the Participant's death but before
distributions to such Surviving Spouse commence, this Section 10.2(c) shall be
applied to require payment of any further benefits as if the Surviving Spouse
were the Participant.

              (d) Pursuant to IRS Regulations, any benefit paid to a child shall
be treated as if paid to a Participant's Surviving Spouse if such amount will
become payable to such Surviving Spouse on the child's attaining majority, or
other designated event permitted by IRS Regulations.

              (e) Any distributions made hereunder on or before December 31,
2000, shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of
the Code and IRS Regulations thereunder as in effect on such date.
Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, with respect to
distributions made under the Plan for Plan Years beginning on or after January
1, 2001, the Plan will apply the minimum distribution requirements of Section
401(a) of the Code in accordance with the IRS Regulations thereunder that were
proposed on January 17, 2001. The provisions of the penultimate sentence of this
Section 10.2(e) shall cease on the last day of the Plan Year beginning before
the effective date of the final IRS Regulations under Section 401(a)(9) of the
Code or such other date as specified in guidance published by the IRS.

              (f) If a Participant who is a Five Percent Owner attained age 70
1/2 before January 1, 1988, any benefit payable to such Participant shall
commence no later than the April 1st of the calendar year following the later of
(i) the calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70 1/2 or (ii) the
earlier of (A) the calendar year within which the Participant becomes a Five
Percent Owner or (B) the calendar year in which the Participant retires.

              (g) If the amount of the distribution pursuant to the Plan cannot
be determined on the date such distribution is required to begin, then payment
shall be made as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later than 90
days after the date the amount to be distributed can be determined.

              (h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions to a Participant
may be made in accordance with a written designation made before January 1, 1984
by the Participant if such designation satisfied the requirements of Section
242(b)(2) of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982.

         10.3 Any election under Section 10.1 must be made by the payee prior to
the 60th day following the date of the Participant's termination of employment
by reason of his retirement, death, or Disability and prior to the date that
payments commence pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Subject to Section
10.4, in any event, payments shall be made no later than the 60th day following
the date on which the amount of the payment under the Plan (or in the case of
more than one payment, the first said payment) can be ascertained under the
Plan.

         10.4 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, to the extent
required by the Code and IRS Regulations, (i) if the value of a Participant's
Account does not or never has exceeded $3,500 for a Plan Year commencing prior
to January 1, 1998 or exceeds $5,000 for a Plan Year commencing on or after
January 1, 1998, a distribution may be made to such Participant prior to the
date he attains his Normal Retirement Age without his written consent and (ii)
if the value of a Participant's Account exceeds or has ever exceeded $3,500 for
a Plan Year commencing prior to January 1, 1998 or exceeds $5,000 for a Plan
Year commencing on or after January 1, 1998, no distribution may be made to such
Participant prior to the date he attains his Normal Retirement Age without his
written consent. In the absence of receipt of such consent by the Administrative
Committee prior to the 60th day following the date of the Participant's
termination of Service, payment of the benefit to such Participant shall
commence as soon as practicable after the Participant's attainment of Normal
Retirement Age, which benefit shall be in an amount equal to the value of the
Participant's distributable Account as of the Valuation Date coincident with or
immediately following the Participant's attainment of Normal Retirement Age and,
during the period of deferral mandated by the absence of receipt of consent, the
Participant may change his investment direction as described pursuant to Section
6.

         10.5 Benefits payable under the Plan to a Participant or Beneficiary
from the Company Stock Fund, other than hardship withdrawals or loans, made
pursuant to Section 12, shall be paid in cash, unless the Participant (or
Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased) elects to receive such distribution
whole shares of the stock held in the Company Stock Fund (containing such
legends and upon such terms and conditions and restrictions as the
Administrative Committee may, in its sole discretion, direct), together with any
cash credited to his Account either awaiting investment in such stock or
representing fractional shares of such stock.

         10.6 Unless the Participant elects otherwise, the payment of benefits
under the Plan shall commence not later than the 60th day after the latest of
the close of the Plan Year in which (i) the Participant obtains age 65, (ii)
occurs the 10th anniversary of the year the Participant commenced participation
under the Plan, and (iii) the Participant terminates employment with the Company
or an Affiliate.

         10.7 A Distributee may elect, at a time and manner prescribed by the
Administrative Committee, to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover
Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by such
Distributee in the form of a Direct Rollover.

         10.8 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no distribution
may be made to a Participant unless the Participant receives from the
Administrative Committee an officially approved tax notice (pursuant to the Code
and IRS Regulations) which specifies certain information regarding the federal
income tax treatment of Plan benefits paid in the form of a lump cash sum no
less than 30 days and no more than 90 days before the date benefits are to be
distributed. Such distribution may commence less than 30 days after the required
notice is given, provided that (i) the Administrative Committee clearly informs
the Participant that the Participant has a right to a period of at least 30 days
after receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a
distribution, and (ii) the Participant, after receiving the notice,
affirmatively elects a distribution.

                    SECTION 11. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARIES

         11.1 Each Participant shall file with the Administrative Committee a
written designation of one or more persons (which may include the Participant's
spouse) as the Beneficiary who shall be entitled to receive the amount, if any,
payable under the Plan upon his death. A Participant may from time to time
revoke or change his Beneficiary designation without the consent of any prior
Beneficiary by filing a new designation with the Administrative Committee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is married, his spouse must
consent, in writing, to the designation of a Beneficiary other than the
Participant's spouse (unless the Administrative Committee makes a written
determination in accordance with the Code and IRS Regulations that no such
consent is required). The last such designation received by the Administrative
Committee shall be controlling, provided, however, that no designation, or
change or revocation thereof, shall be effective unless received by the
Administrative Committee prior to the Participant's death, and in no event shall
it be effective as of a date prior to such receipt.

         11.2 If no such Beneficiary designation is in effect at the time of a
Participant's death, or if no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant,
the Participant shall be deemed to have designated his Surviving Spouse, if any,
as Beneficiary, or if the Participant has no Surviving Spouse, then the
following persons (if then living) in the following order of priority: (i)
children, in equal shares, (ii) parents, in equal shares, (iii) the persons
designated as beneficiary under the group life insurance plan of the Employer,
and (iv) the Participant's estate. If the Administrative Committee is in doubt
as to the right of any person to receive such amount, the Administrative
Committee may direct the Trustee to retain such amount, without liability for
any interest thereon, until the rights thereto are determined, or the
Administrative Committee may direct the Trustee to pay such amount into any
court of appropriate jurisdiction and such payment shall be a complete discharge
of the liability of the Plan and the Trust.

                             SECTION 12. WITHDRAWALS

         12.1 Subject to the following provisions of this Section, each
Participant may request a withdrawal of all or any portion of his Salary
Reduction Contribution Account; provided, however, that no amount in a
Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution Account that is deemed invested in
an outstanding loan to the Participant may be withdrawn. Salary Reduction
Contributions may not be withdrawn, or otherwise distributed to a Participant
until the earliest to occur of the Participant's retirement, death, Disability,
an event described in Section 8.4, separation from Service or immediate and
heavy financial need (as determined by the Administrative Committee in
accordance with this Section 12.1). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case
of a withdrawal on account of an immediate and heavy financial need, no earnings
in the Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution Account may be distributed
under this Section 12.1. For the purposes of this Section 12.1, the term
"immediate and heavy financial need" shall include the need of funds for (i) the
payment of medical care as described in Section 213(d) of the Code incurred by,
or necessary (even though not yet incurred) for the treatment of, the
Participant, the Participant's spouse, or any of the Participant's dependents
(as defined in Section 152 of the Code), (ii) the payment of tuition, related
educational expenses, and room and board expenses for the 12 months following
the date of withdrawal for post-secondary education of the Participant, the
Participant's spouse, the Participant's children, or any of the Participant's
dependents (as defined in Section 152 of the Code), (iii) the purchase
(excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence for the Participant, (iv)
the prevention of eviction of the Participant from his principal residence or
the prevention of foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal
residence or (v) such other immediate and heavy financial emergency as
determined by the Administrative Committee pursuant to uniformly applicable
guidelines and IRS Regulations. The amount of any withdrawal pursuant to this
Section 12.1 shall not exceed the amount required to meet the financial
emergency, including amounts needed to pay any taxes or penalties as a result of
such withdrawal. A withdrawal by reason of an immediate and heavy financial need
may be requested by a Participant only after he has (i) withdrawn from his
Voluntary Contribution Account, (ii) withdrawn all employee contributions
permitted to be withdrawn under any other plan maintained by the Employer and
(iii) received all loans permitted under Section 13 or under any other plan
maintained by the Employer.

         12.2 Subject to the provisions of this Section 12.2 and Section 12.3,
each Participant may withdraw all or any portion of the aggregate amount of his
Voluntary Contribution Account; provided, however, that no amount in a
Participant's Voluntary Contribution Account that is deemed invested in an
outstanding loan under Section 13 to the Participant may be withdrawn.

         12.3 A Participant shall give the Administrative Committee written
notice of a request for a withdrawal pursuant to the provisions of this Section
12 in accordance with such procedures as the Administrative Committee shall
establish. In distributing a Participant's withdrawal pursuant to this Section
12, the Investment Fund or Funds in which a Participant's Employer Contribution
Account, Salary Reduction Contribution Account or Voluntary Contribution Account
(whichever is applicable) is invested shall be reduced proportionately in the
ratio which the amount invested in each Investment Fund bears to the entire
account so reduced. No withdrawal pursuant to this Section 12 shall be of an
aggregate amount less than $500. In the event a Participant who has requested a
withdrawal terminates Service prior to the effective date (as specified below)
of the withdrawal, the withdrawal request shall be void and the provisions of
Section 8.3 shall apply. Withdrawals shall become effective on the Business Day
in which the Administrative Committee or its designee receives a properly
executed withdrawal form, unless a later date is requested therein. Payment of
any withdrawals pursuant to this Section 12 shall be made solely in cash. A
Participant who makes a hardship withdrawal pursuant to Sections 12.3 or 12.4
shall be suspended from making any further Salary Reduction Contributions under
the Plan or any other plan of the Employer for a period of 12 months, effective
as of the date the withdrawal is received. Notwithstanding any other provision
of the Plan, the Salary Reduction Contributions of a Participant made in the
Plan Year following the Plan Year during which a hardship withdrawal was made,
shall not exceed the applicable limit under Section 402(g) of the Code for such
Plan Year less the amount of Salary Reduction Contributions made by the
Participant during the Plan Year during which the hardship withdrawal was made.

                        SECTION 13. LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS

         13.1 A Participant who is an Employee shall be permitted to request a
loan from the Plan. A loan request must be submitted in writing by each
requesting Participant no less than 30 days prior to the date on which the loan
is to be distributed. Each requesting Participant, shall be required to provide
the Administrative Committee or its designee with such information and to
execute such documents and other instruments as may be reasonably requested by
the Administrative Committee in connection with approving the loan. The
Administrative Committee shall establish nondiscriminatory standards in
accordance with the Code and the Act which shall be uniformly applicable to all
Participants similarly situated and shall govern the Administrative Committee's
or its designee's approval or disapproval of a completed application. The terms
for each loan shall be set solely in accordance with such standards. The
Administrative Committee or its designee shall determine, in its sole discretion
and in accordance with applicable law, whether the application for a loan is to
be approved. In making its determination, the Administrative Committee or its
designee may consider the applicant's creditworthiness, financial need and any
other commercially reasonable factors, however, all applications for loans shall
be evaluated in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 13, a Participant shall not be permitted to have
more than two loans outstanding from the Plan at any time.

         13.2 (a) The amount of any loan granted to a Participant, together with
the aggregate outstanding balance (determined as of the date the loan is made)
of all previous loans to the Participant under the Plan may not exceed the
lesser of:

              (i)  $50,000, reduced by the excess (if any) of:

                   (A) the highest outstanding balance of loans from the Plan to
                       the Participant during the one year period ending on the
                       day before the date on which such loan is made, over

                   (B) the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan to the
                       Participant on the date on which such loan is made, or

              (ii) 50% of his Vested Interest in his Account.

For purposes of this Section 13.2(a), valuation of the Vested Interest of the
Participant shall be made as of the Valuation Date which occurs prior to the
submission of a loan request.

              (b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 13.2(a) to the contrary,
no loan shall be (i) made in a principal amount of less than $1,000, (ii)
granted to any Participant whose total Account is less than $2,000 and (iii)
granted from the vested value of his Account invested in the Company Stock Fund
and the Stock Bonus Account (as such Account is described in Appendix A). The
Administrative Committee may require reduction of the principal amount of any
loan if repayment of the loan as provided in Section 13.2(d) hereof would
require reduction of the Participant's payroll by more than 15%.

              (c) A loan shall be deemed an investment of the borrowing
Participant's Account and shall not reduce the amount credited to his Account.
At the time a loan is made, the amount loaned shall first be deemed an
investment of, and allocated to, the Participant's Vested Interest in his
Employer Contribution Account not already allocated to a loan; to the extent it
is in excess of such amounts, it shall then be deemed an investment of, and
allocated to the Participant's Salary Reduction Contribution Account; to the
extent it is in excess of such amounts, it shall then be deemed an investment
of, and allocated to the Participant's Voluntary Contribution Account not
already allocated to a loan; to the extent it is in excess of such amounts, it
shall then be deemed an investment of, and allocated to the Participant's Salary
Reduction Contribution Account; to the extent it is in excess of such amounts,
it shall then be deemed an investment of, and allocated to, the Participant's
Rollover Contribution Account not already allocated to a loan; and to the extent
it is in excess of such amounts, it shall then be deemed an investment of, and
allocated to, the Participant's Vested Interest in any account (except as
provided to the contrary herein) described in Appendix A, not already allocated
to a loan. A Participant shall be responsible for the payment of all fees
associated with the granting and maintenance of a loan.

              (d) The Investment Funds in which the Participant's Account is
invested in accordance with Section 6 of the Plan shall be reduced by the amount
of any loan made hereunder in the ratio that the value of each such Investment
Fund bears to the value of all Investment Funds in which the Participant's
Account are invested; provided, however, that the Company Stock Fund and the
Stock Bonus Fund (as described in Appendix A) may not be reduced for any loan
made hereunder.

         13.3 The Administrative Committee or its designee shall, in accordance
with the Administrative Committee's established standards, review and approve or
disapprove a completed application as soon as practicable after its receipt
thereof, and shall promptly notify the applicant of such approval or
disapproval. In addition, in the event the Trustee, in its sole discretion,
determines that it is not reasonably and prudently able, in the interests of
Participants and Beneficiaries, to liquidate the necessary amount from any of
the Investment Funds, the Trustee shall notify the Administrative Committee, and
the amount to be paid to each Participant whose completed application designated
that a loan be made from such Investment Fund shall be reduced in proportion to
the ratio which the aggregate amount that the Trustee has advised the
Administrative Committee may prudently be liquidated bears to the aggregate
amount which all such Participants designated to be paid from such Investment
Fund.

         13.4 (a) Interest shall be charged on a loan at the prime lending rate,
as published in the Wall Street Journal on the first Business Day of the
calendar month plus one percent determined as of the date the Participant's
application is received by the Administrative Committee or its designee. The
term of the loan shall be fixed by the Administrative Committee at the time the
loan is made and shall not be extended. All loans shall be for a minimum term of
one year and must be in one year increments. A loan must be repaid within a
maximum of five years, ten years if the loan is used to acquire any dwelling
unit which within a reasonable period of time is to be used as the principal
residence of the Participant. Principal residence status shall be determined by
the Administrative Committee or its designee at the time the loan is made.

              (b) A Participant may repay all (but not part) of any loan without
penalty by payment of the outstanding principal amount thereof, plus unpaid
accrued interest to the date of repayment.

              (c) Regardless of its original maturity, the outstanding principal
amount of any loan, and accrued interest thereon, shall become immediately due
and must be paid within 90 days following the date a Participant's employment
with the Employer terminates for any reason whatsoever.

         13.5 (a) All loans made to Participant shall be repaid by payroll
deduction under a fixed schedule, as determined by the Administrative Committee,
in substantially equal installments consisting of level amortized payments of
principal and interest at least quarterly. Such installments shall be
appropriately adjusted in the event of a change in payroll frequency but shall
not otherwise be modified while the loan is outstanding. Loan repayments other
than by payroll deduction will be permitted by a Participant (i) on an unpaid
authorized leave of absence in accordance with a fixed schedule determined by
the Administrative Committee and (ii) who elects to prepay his loan in full.
Withholding of loan repayments from a Participant's payroll will commence as of
the next day on which the Participant receives payment of Compensation from an
Employer following the date on which the applicable loan is made.

              (b) As security for repayment of each loan made to a Participant,
such Participant shall pledge that portion of his Vested Interest in his Account
equal to the outstanding loan, and such other collateral as may from time to
time be required by controlling law or Regulation. In the event a Participant
defaults on his obligation to repay his loan, the Trustee may, at the direction
of the Administrative Committee, foreclose on such security to the extent such
Participant would be entitled to withdraw the amount foreclosed from his
Account. Upon termination of a Participant's employment with the Employer, the
value of the distributable benefit of his Vested Interest in his Account shall
be reduced by the amount of any unpaid principal balance of the loan plus
interest accrued to the date of termination; provided, however, that a
Participant who has elected to defer distribution of his Plan benefit until any
time up to his Normal Retirement Date may repay the loan from other sources
provided such repayment is effected no later than 60 days after the date of
termination of his employment or such longer period as the Administrative
Committee may determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion.

              (c) Each loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note executed by
the Participant, payable to the Trustee in such form as may be specified by the
Administrative Committee. Spousal consent shall be obtained no earlier than the
beginning of the 60 day period that ends on the date on which the loan is to be
secured. Except as provided in this Section 13.5(c), at the time the
Participant's Account is used as security for a loan, spousal consent to such
use must be obtained. The spouse's consent must be in writing, must acknowledge
the effect of the loan and must be witnessed by a Plan representative or by a
notary public. Such spousal consent shall thereafter be binding with respect to
the consenting spouse or any subsequent spouse with respect to that loan. For
purposes of obtaining any required spousal consent, any renegotiation,
extension, renewal, or other revision of a loan shall be treated as a new loan
made on the date of the renegotiation, extension, renewal, or other revision of
a loan.

              (d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 13.5 to the
contrary, loan repayments shall be suspended during the period a Participant is
in "qualified military service" as permitted under Section 414(u)(4) of the Code
and the IRS Regulations thereunder.

         13.6 The right to receive loan repayments, including interest thereon,
shall be considered an asset of the Plan and all loan repayments of principal
and interest shall be credited to the Investment Funds in the same proportion
that the Participant's future contributions are allocated on the date of such
repayment.

         13.7 Outstanding loans shall share in Plan expenses in a manner
determined by the Administrative Committee. The Administrative Committee shall
apply these rules on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis. With appropriate
notice, the Administrative Committee may amend these rules, including amendments
that affect outstanding loans, as may be required to conform to applicable law
or regulation.

                     SECTION 14. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

         14.1 The Administrative Committee shall have general responsibility and
discretionary authority for the administration, establishment and interpretation
of the Plan (including but not limited to complying with reporting and
disclosure requirements, establishing and maintaining Plan records, adopting
amendments to the Plan as described in Section 16.1, deciding all questions
arising in connection with the Plan including eligibility, benefit payments,
vesting and factual questions). The Administrative Committee shall engage such
certified public accountants, who may be accountants for the Company, as it
shall require or may deem advisable for purposes of the Plan. The Administrative
Committee shall have sole discretionary authority to determine, a Participant's
or Beneficiary's benefit eligibility. The Administrative Committee shall
communicate any requirements and objectives of the Plan, and any audit
information which may be pertinent to the investment of Plan assets to the
Investment Committee, which shall establish investment standards and policies
and communicate the same to the Trustee (or other funding agencies under the
Plan).

         14.2 The Investment Committee shall periodically review the investment
performance and methods of the Trustee and any other funding agency, including
any insurance company, under the Plan, and may appoint and remove or change the
Trustee and any such funding agency. The Investment Committee shall have the
power to appoint or remove one or more Investment Managers and to delegate to
such Investment Manager the authority and discretion to manage (including the
power to acquire and dispose of) the assets of the Plan, provided that (i) each
Investment Manager with such authority and discretion shall be either a bank, an
insurance company or a registered investment adviser under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, and shall acknowledge in writing that it is a fiduciary
with respect to the Plan and (ii) the Investment Committee shall periodically
review the investment performance and methods of each Investment Manager with
such authority and discretion. If annuities are to be purchased under the Plan,
the Investment Committee shall determine what contracts should be made available
to terminated Participants or purchased by the Trust.

         14.3 Both Administrative Committee and the Investment Committee may
arrange for the engagement of such legal counsel who may be counsel for the
Company, and make use of such agents and clerical or other personnel as they
each shall require or may deem advisable for purposes of the Plan. Each
Committee may rely upon the written opinion of such counsel and the accountants
engaged by the Administrative Committee and may delegate to any such agent or to
any subcommittee or member of such Committee its authority to perform any act
hereunder, including, without limitation, those matters involving the exercise
of discretion (including the appointment of an Investment Manager), provided
that such delegation shall be subject to revocation at any time at the
discretion of such Committee. Each Committee shall report to the Board of
Directors, or to a committee of the Board of Directors designated for that
purpose, no less frequently than at each annual meeting as shall be specified by
the Board of Directors, or such committee with regard to the Board of Directors
the matters for which it is responsible under the Plan.

         14.4 Both the Administrative Committee and the Investment Committee
shall consist of at least three members, each of whom shall be appointed by,
shall remain in office at the will of, and may be removed, with or without
cause, by the Board of Directors. Any member of either of said Committee may
resign at any time. No member of either of said Committees shall be entitled to
act on or decide any matter relating solely to himself or any of his rights or
benefits under the Plan. The members of the Administrative Committee and of the
Investment Committee shall not receive any special compensation for serving in
their capacities as members of such Committees but shall be reimbursed for any
reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith. Except as otherwise
required by the Act, no bond or other security need be required of the
Administrative Committee or the Investment Committee or any member thereof in
any jurisdiction. Any person may serve on both Committees, and any member of
either Committee, any subcommittee or agent to whom either Committee delegates
any authority, and any other person or group of persons, may serve in more than
one fiduciary capacity (including service both as a trustee and administrator)
with respect to the Plan.

         14.5 Each Committee shall elect or designate its own Chairman,
establish its own procedures and the time and place for its meetings, and
provide for the keeping of minutes of all meetings. A majority of the members of
the Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at a
meeting of such Committee. Any action of the Committee may be taken upon the
affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Committee at a meeting or,
at the direction of its Chairman, without a meeting, by mail, electronic mail
("email"), telegraph, telex, telecopier or telephone, provided that all of the
members of the Committee are informed by mail, email, telegraph, telex,
telecopier or telephone of their right to vote on the proposal and of the
outcome of the vote thereon.

         14.6 All demands for money of the Plan shall be signed by an officer or
officers or such other person or persons as the Administrative Committee may
from time to time designate in writing who shall cause to be kept full and
accurate accounts of receipts and disbursements of the Plan, shall cause to be
deposited all funds of the Plan to the name and credit of the Plan, in such
depositories as may be designated by the Investment Committee, shall cause to be
disbursed the monies and funds of the Plan when so authorized by the
Administrative Committee and shall generally perform such other duties as may be
assigned to him from time to time by either Committee.

         14.7 The Company has entered into the Trust Agreement with the Trustee
providing for the administration and management of the Trust Fund. The Trustee
shall have responsibility under the Plan for the management and control of the
assets of the Plan. All benefits and other amounts payable hereunder shall be
paid exclusively from the Trust Fund, and neither the Company, any Affiliate,
any Trustee, nor any director, officer, Employee or agent of the Company assumes
any responsibility or liability therefor. The Trust Fund may be commingled for
investment purposes with like separate trust funds of any other plans and trusts
of the Company or any Affiliate which meet the requirements of Sections 401(a)
and 501(a) of the Code. Each Participant, each Beneficiary or each other person
who shall claim the right to any payment under the Plan shall look exclusively
to the Trust Fund therefor and shall not have any right or claim therefor
against the Company, any Participating Company, any Trustee, or any director,
officer, Employee or agent of the Company. Except as otherwise required by the
Act, neither the Company, nor any member of the Administrative Committee or the
Investment Committee, any director, officer, Employee or agent of the Company
shall be required to inquire into or be responsible for any act or failure to
act of any Trustee or any Participant. To the maximum extent permitted by the
Act and applicable state law, each Trustee, each member of the Administrative
Committee and the Investment Committee, each director and officer of the
Company, any Participating Company and each Employee who performs service on
behalf of the Plan or the Trust, shall be indemnified and saved harmless by the
Company or by the Participating Company out of its own assets (including the
proceeds of any insurance policy the premiums of which are paid by the Company)
from and against any and all losses, costs and expense (including any amounts
paid in settlement of a claim with the Company or Administrative Committee's
approval) to which any of them may be subjected by reason of any act done or
omitted to be done in good faith in their official capacities with respect to
the Plan or the Trust Agreement, including all expenses reasonably incurred in
their defense.

         14.8 (a) All claims for benefits under the Plan shall be submitted in
writing to and within a reasonable period of time decided by, a person or
persons designated in writing by the Administrative Committee. If the claim is
wholly or partially denied, written notice of the denial shall be furnished
within 90 days after receipt of the claim; provided that, if special
circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim, an
additional 90 days from the end of the initial period shall be allowed for
processing the claim, in which event the claimant shall be furnished with a
written notice of the extension prior to the termination of the initial 90-day
period indicating the special circumstances requiring an extension. The written
notice denying the claim shall set forth the reasons for the denial, including
specific reference to pertinent provisions of the Plan on which the denial is
based, a description of any additional information necessary to perfect the
claim and information regarding review of the claim and its denial.

              (b) A claimant may review all pertinent documents and may request
a review by the Administrative Committee of a decision denying the claim. Such a
request shall be made in writing and filed with the Administrative Committee
within 60 days after delivery to the claimant of written notice of the decision.
Such written request for review shall contain all additional information which
the claimant wishes the Administrative Committee to consider. The Administrative
Committee may hold a hearing or conduct an independent investigation, and the
decision on review shall be made as soon as possible after the Administrative
Committee's receipt of the request for review. Written notice of the decision on
review shall be furnished to the claimant within 60 days after receipt by the
Administrative Committee of a request for review, unless special circumstances
require an extension of time for processing, in which event an additional 60
days shall be allowed for review and the claimant shall be so notified in
writing. Written notice of the decision on review shall include specific reasons
for the decision. For all purposes under the Plan, such decision on claims
(where no review is requested) and decision on review (where review is
requested) shall be in the sole discretion of the Administrative Committee,
final, binding and conclusive on all interested persons as to participation and
benefits eligibility, the amount of benefits and as to any other matter of fact
or interpretation relating to the Plan.

         14.9 Any notice, election, application, instruction, designation or
other form of communication required to be given or submitted by any
Participant, other Employee or Beneficiary shall be in such form as is
prescribed from time to time by the Administrative Committee or Investment
Committee, sent by first class mail or delivered in person, and shall be deemed
to be duly given only upon actual receipt thereof by such Committee. Any notice,
statement, report and other communication from the Company or either Committee
to any Participant, other Employee, or Beneficiary required or permitted by the
Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered to such person or
mailed by first class mail to such person at his address last appearing on the
records of the Company or the Administrative Committee. Each person entitled to
receive a payment under the Plan shall file in accordance herewith his complete
mailing address and each change therein. A check or communication mailed to any
person at his address on file with the Company or the appropriate Committee
shall be deemed to have been received by such person for all purposes of the
Plan, and no Employee or agent of the Company, of a Participating Company or
member of the Administrative Committee or the Investment Committee, shall be
obliged to search for or ascertain the location of any such person except as
required by the Act. If the Administrative Committee shall be in doubt as to
whether payments are being received by the person entitled thereto, it may, by
registered mail addressed to such person at his address last known to the
Administrative Committee notify such person that all future payments will be
withheld until such person submits to the Administrative Committee his proper
mailing address and such other information as the Administrative Committee may
reasonably request.

         14.10 Each Participant shall file with the Administrative Committee
such pertinent information concerning himself and his Beneficiary, and each
Beneficiary shall file with the Administrative Committee such information
concerning himself, as the Administrative Committee may specify, and in such
manner and form as the Administrative Committee may specify or provide, and no
Participant or Beneficiary shall have any right or be entitled to any benefits
or further benefits under the Plan unless such information is filed by him or on
his behalf.

         14.11 The Administrative Committee and the Investment Committee each
shall have only those specific powers, duties, responsibilities and obligations
as are specifically authorized by the Plan or the Trust, as the Plan or the
Trust may be amended from time to time. It is intended that each Committee shall
be responsible for the proper exercise of its own powers, duties,
responsibilities and obligations and shall not be responsible for any act or
failure to act on the part of another fiduciary.

         14.12 The agent for the service of legal process of the Plan shall be
the Corporate Secretary of Covanta Energy Group, Inc. or such other person as
may from time to time be designated by the Administrative Committee. Service of
legal process may also be made upon the Trustee.

                    SECTION 15. TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATING
                              COMPANY PARTICIPATION

         15.1 Any Participating Company may terminate its participation in the
Plan by giving the Administrative Committee prior written notice specifying a
termination date which shall be the last day of a month at least 60 days
subsequent to the date such notice is received by the Administrative Committee.
The Administrative Committee may terminate any Participating Company's
participation in the Plan, as of any termination date specified by the
Administrative Committee, for the failure of the Participating Company to make
proper contributions or to comply with any other provision of the Plan and shall
terminate a Participating Company's participation upon complete and final
discontinuance of the contributions. In the event of any such termination, the
Administrative Committee shall promptly notify the IRS and request such
determination as counsel to the Plan may recommend and as the Administrative
Committee may deem desirable.

         15.2 (a) Upon termination of the Plan as to any Participating Company,
such Participating Company shall not make any further contributions under the
Plan and no amount shall thereafter be payable under the Plan to or in respect
of any Participants then employed by such Participating Company except as
provided in this Section 15. To the maximum extent permitted by the Act, any
rights of Participants no longer employed by such Participating Company and of
former Participants and their Beneficiaries and Surviving Spouses under the Plan
shall be unaffected by such termination and any transfers, distributions or
other dispositions of the assets of the Plan as provided in this Section 15
shall constitute a complete discharge of all liabilities under the Plan with
respect to such Participating Company's participation in the Plan and any
Participant then employed by such Participating Company.

              (b) The interest of each such Participant in Service with such
Participating Company as of the termination date in the amount, if any, credited
to his Account after payment of or provision for expenses and charges and
appropriate adjustment of the Accounts of all such Participants for expenses,
charges, forfeitures and profits and losses as described in Section 16.4, shall
be nonforfeitable as of the termination date, and upon receipt by the
Administrative Committee of IRS approval of such termination, the full current
value of such amount, reduced by any unpaid loans, shall be paid from the Trust
Fund in the manner described in Section 16.4 or transferred to a successor
employee benefit plan which is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code;
provided, however, that in the event of any transfer of assets to a successor
employee benefit plan the provisions of Section 15.3 will apply.

              (c) All determinations, approvals and notifications referred to
above shall be in form and substance from a source satisfactory to counsel for
the Plan. To the maximum extent permitted by the Act, the termination of the
Plan as to any Participating Company shall not in any way affect any other
Participating Company's participation in the Plan.

         15.3 No transfer of the Plan's assets and liabilities to a successor
employee benefit plan (whether by merger or consolidation with such successor
plan or otherwise) shall be made unless each Participant would, if either the
Plan or such successor plan then terminated, receive a benefit immediately after
such transfer which (after taking account of any distributions or payments to
them as part of the same transaction) is equal to or greater than the benefit he
would have been entitled to receive immediately before such transfer if the Plan
had then been terminated. The Administrative Committee or the Investment
Committee or both of the Committees may request appropriate indemnification from
the employer or employers maintaining such successor plan before making such a
transfer.

         SECTION 16. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN AND THE TRUST

         16.1 (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 16.1(b), the Board of
Directors reserves the right at any time, by majority consent in writing or by a
meeting, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan, any contributions thereunder,
the Trust, in whole or in part, for any reason and without the consent of any
Participating Company, Participant, other Employee, Beneficiary or Surviving
Spouse. The Administrative Committee may adopt amendments, by majority consent
in writing or by a meeting, which may be necessary or appropriate to facilitate
the administration, management, or interpretation of the Plan or to conform the
Plan thereto, or to qualify or maintain the Plan and the Trust as a plan and
trust meeting the requirements of Sections 401(a), 401(k) and 501(a) of the Code
or any other applicable section of law (including the Act) and the Regulations,
provided that any such amendment does not materially increase the cost to the
Employers of maintaining the Plan. Each Participating Company by its adoption of
the Plan shall be deemed to have delegated this authority to the Board of
Directors and the Administrative Committee. The Plan shall automatically be
terminated upon complete and final discontinuance of contributions thereunder.

              (b) No amendment or modification shall be made which would
retroactively impair any right to any benefit under the Plan which any
Participant, Beneficiary or Surviving Spouse would otherwise have had at the
date of such amendment by reason of the contributions theretofore made and
credited to his Account, except as provided in Section 16.2 below.

         16.2 Subject to the provisions of Section 16.1, any amendment,
modification, suspension or termination of any provisions of the Plan may be
made retroactively if necessary or appropriate to qualify or maintain the Plan
and the Trust as a plan and trust meeting the requirements of Sections 401(a),
401(k) and 501(a) of the Code or any other applicable section of law (including
the Act) and the Regulations issued thereunder.

         16.3 Notice of any amendment, modification, suspension or termination
of the Plan shall be given by the Board of Directors or the Administrative
Committee, whichever adopts the amendment to the other and to the Trustee and
all Participating Companies and, where and to the extent required by law, to
Participants and other interested parties.

         16.4 (a) Upon termination of the Plan, the Employer shall not make any
further contributions under the Plan and no amount shall thereafter be payable
under the Plan in respect of any Participant except as provided in this Section
16. To the maximum extent permitted by the Act, transfers, distributions or
other dispositions of the assets of the Plan as provided in this Section 16
shall constitute a complete discharge of all liabilities under the Plan. The
Administrative and Investment Committees shall remain in existence and all of
the provisions of the Plan which in the opinion of the Administrative Committee
are necessary for the execution of the Plan and the administration and
distribution, transfer or other disposition of the assets of the Plan in
accordance with this Section 16.4 shall remain in force. After (i) payment of or
provision for all expenses and charges referred to in Sections 7.4 and 7.5 and
appropriate adjustment of all Accounts for such expenses and charges in the
manner described in Section 7.4 and (ii) adjustment for profits and losses of
the Trust to such termination date in the manner described in Section 7.2, the
interest of each Participant in Service as of the date of such termination in
the amount, if any, credited to his Account shall be nonforfeitable as of such
date.

              (b) The full current value of such adjusted amount, [reduced by
the amount of any unpaid loans to the Participant, shall be paid from the Trust
to each Participant and former Participant, (or, in the event of the death of
such Participant or former Participant, the Beneficiary or Surviving Spouse
thereof) in any manner of distribution specified in Section 10 above, including
payments which are deferred until the Participant's termination of Service, as
the Administrative Committee shall determine in a nondiscriminatory manner.
Without limiting the foregoing, any such distributions may be made in cash or in
property, or both, as the Administrative Committee in its sole discretion may
direct.

              (c) All determinations, approvals and notifications referred to
above shall be in form and substance and from a source satisfactory to counsel
for the Plan.

         16.5 In the event a partial termination (within the meaning of the Act)
of the Plan has occurred then (i) the interest of each Participant affected
thereby in his Account shall be nonforfeitable as of the date of such partial
termination and (ii) the provisions of Sections 16.2, 16.3 and 16.4 and Section
15.2 which in the opinion of the Administrative Committee are necessary for the
execution of the Plan and the allocation and distribution of the assets of the
Plan shall apply.

         16.6 Except as provided in Section 5.6 and Section 13 of the Plan or
Section 414(p) of the Code, in no event shall any part of the funds of the Plan
(other than such part as is required to pay taxes, if any, and expenses as
provided in Section 7) be used for or diverted to any purposes other than for
the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries and Surviving
Spouses under the Plan.

                 SECTION 17. GENERAL LIMITATIONS AND PROVISIONS

         17.1 Each Participant, former Participant, Beneficiary and Surviving
Spouse shall assume all risk in connection with any decrease in the value of the
assets of the Trust and the Participants' Accounts or special accounts and
neither the Employer nor the Administrative Committee nor the Investment
Committee shall be liable or responsible therefor.

         17.2 Nothing contained in the Plan shall give any Employee the right to
be retained in the employment of the Company, any Participating Company or any
of its subsidiaries or affiliated or associated corporations or affect the right
of any such Employer to dismiss any Employee. The adoption and maintenance of
the Plan shall not constitute a contract between an Employer and any Employee or
consideration for, or an inducement to or condition of, the employment of any
Employee.

         17.3 If the Administrative Committee shall find that any person to whom
any amount is payable under the Plan is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unable to care for his affairs because of illness or
accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due him or his estate
(unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal
representative) may, if the Administrative Committee so elects, be paid to his
spouse, a child, a relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of
such person, or any other person deemed by the Administrative Committee to be a
proper recipient on behalf of such person otherwise entitled to payment. Any
such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Plan and the
Trust therefor.

         17.4 Except insofar as may otherwise be required by law or pursuant to
the terms of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or pursuant to certain
judgments and settlements for a breach of fiduciary duty or criminal act against
the Plan as described in Section 401(a)(13) of the Code, no amount payable at
any time under the Plan and the Trust shall be subject in any manner to
alienation by anticipation, sale, transfer, assignment, bankruptcy, pledge,
attachment, charge or encumbrance of any kind nor in any manner be subject to
the debts or liabilities of any person and any attempt to so alienate or subject
any such amount, whether presently or thereafter payable, shall be void. If any
person shall attempt to, or shall, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge,
attach, charge or otherwise encumber any amount payable under the Plan and the
Trust, or any part thereof, or if by reason of his bankruptcy or other event
happening at any such time such amount would be made subject to his debts or
liabilities or would otherwise not be enjoyed by him, then the Administrative
Committee, if it so elects, may direct that such amount be withheld and that the
same or any part thereof be paid or applied to or for the benefit of such
person, his spouse, children or other dependents, or any of them, in such manner
and proportion as the Administrative Committee may deem proper. The prohibition
against assignment or alienation of benefits contained in this Section 17.4
shall not apply to any loan to a Participant made under Section 13 of the Plan.

         17.5 If the Administrative Committee cannot ascertain the whereabouts
of any person to whom a payment is due under the Plan, and if, after five years
from the date such payment is due or upon the termination of the Plan in
accordance with Section 16, a notice of such payment due is mailed to the last
known address of such person, as shown on the records of the Administrative
Committee or the Employer, and within three months after such mailing such
person has not made written claim therefor, the Administrative Committee, if it
so elects, after receiving advice from counsel to the Plan, may direct that such
payment and all remaining payments otherwise due to such person be canceled on
the records of the Plan and the amount thereof applied to reduce the
contributions of the Employer or, in the case of the termination of the Plan,
allocated on a pro rata basis among the Participants of the Plan, and upon such
cancellation, the Plan and the Trust shall have no further liability therefor
except that, in the event such person later notifies the Administrative
Committee of his whereabouts and requests the payment or payments due to him
under the Plan, the amount so applied shall be paid to him as provided in
Section 10.

         17.6 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary,
effective December 12, 1994, contributions, benefits and service credit with
respect to "qualified military service" shall be provided in accordance with
Section 414(u) of the Code and the IRS Regulations thereunder.

         17.7 Any and all rights or benefits accruing to any persons under the
Plan shall be subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement which the Company
shall enter into with the Trustee providing for the administration of the Trust
Fund.

         17.8 Whenever used in the Plan the masculine gender includes the
feminine gender and the singular includes the plural, unless the context
indicates otherwise.

         17.9 The captions preceding the sections of the Plan have been inserted
solely as a matter of convenience and in no way define or limit the scope or
intent of any provisions of the Plan.

         17.10 The Plan and all rights thereunder shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the Act and the laws of the State of New York.

                    SECTION 18. MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF ALLOCATION

         18.1 The provisions of this Section 18 shall govern notwithstanding any
other provisions of the Plan.

         18.2 Annual Additions to a Participant's Account in respect of any Plan
Year may not exceed the lesser of

              (a) $30,000, but for Plan Years ending on or before December 31,
         1994, the greater of (i) $30,000 and (ii) one-fourth of the defined
         benefit dollar limitation set forth in Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code
         as in effect for such Plan Year; or

              (b) 25% of the Participant's Salary for such Plan Year.

         For this purpose, the term "Annual Additions" shall mean the sum of the
following amounts which, without regard to this Section 18, would have been
credited to the Participant's Account for any Plan Year under the Plan and under
any other defined contribution plans of the Employer or an Affiliate: (i)
Employer Contributions; (ii) Salary Reduction Contributions and all elective
contributions made under any cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of
Section 1.401(k)-1(g)(3) of the IRS Regulations including excess deferrals;
(iii) Voluntary Contributions or voluntary employee after-tax contributions made
under any qualified employee pension benefit plan; (iv) forfeitures, if
applicable; and, with respect to any plan maintained by the Employer or an
Affiliate (v) contributions allocated to any individual medical account defined
in Section 415(l)(2) of the Code that is part of a pension or annuity plan
maintained by the Employer; and (vi) in the case of a Participant who is a "key
employee," as defined in Section 419A(d)(3) of the Code, the amount allocated to
a separate account established for post-retirement medical or life insurance
benefits of such Participant described in Section 419A(d)(1) of the Code under a
welfare benefit fund as defined in Section 419(e) of the Code, and as maintained
by the Employer. The term Annual Additions shall not include any Rollover
Contributions. The term Annual Additions shall include, whether or not refunded,
excess deferrals as described in Section 4.1(a), Excess Contributions and Excess
Aggregate Contributions. Solely for the purposes of Section 18.4(a), Annual
Additions shall include a Participant's contributions under a qualified
cost-of-living arrangement described in Section 415(k)(2) of the Code.

         18.3 If the limitations of Section 18.2 are violated as a result of the
allocation of (i) forfeitures, (ii) a reasonable error in estimating a
Participant's Compensation or Salary, (iii) or under such other facts and
circumstances as determined by the IRS, amounts which would otherwise be
allocated to a Participant's Account must be reduced by reason of the
limitations of Section 18.2, such reduction shall be made in the following order
of priority, but only to the extent necessary:

              (1) The amount of the Participant's Voluntary Contributions,
exclusive of any earnings of the Trust Fund attributable thereto, shall be
refunded to the Participant; then

              (2) Employer Contributions made pursuant to Section 5.1(b)
allocable to such Participant in respect of such Plan Year shall be reduced and
the amount of such reduction shall be utilized to reduce Employer Contributions
which would otherwise be made to the Plan; and then

              (3) Employer Contributions made pursuant to Section 5.1(a)
allocable to such Participant in respect of such Plan Year shall be reduced and
the amount of such reduction shall be utilized to reduce Employer Contributions
which would otherwise be made to the Plan; and then

              (4) To the extent permitted by the Code and IRS Regulations, the
amount of Salary Reduction Contributions, including any earnings of the Trust
Fund attributable thereto, shall be refunded to the Participant or, to the
extent required by law, shall be held unallocated in a suspense account and
shall be applied, as directed by the Administrative Committee in accordance with
the law and regulations, as a credit to reduce the contributions of the Employer
for the next Plan Year and in the event of termination of the Plan shall be
returned to the Employer.

         18.4 (a) Subject to 18.4(c) and 18.4(d), In the event that, in any Plan
Year and with respect to any Participant, the sum of the "Defined Contribution
Fraction" (as defined in Section 18.4(b)(1)) and the "Defined Benefit Fraction"
(as defined in Section 18.4(b)(2)) would otherwise exceed 1.0, then the benefit
payable under the defined benefit plan or plans shall be reduced in accordance
with the provisions of that plan or those plans, but only to the extent
necessary to ensure that such limitation is not exceeded. If this reduction does
not ensure that the limitation set forth in this Section 18.4 is not exceeded,
then the Annual Addition to any defined contribution plan, other than the Plan,
shall be reduced in accordance with the provisions of that plan but only to the
extent necessary to ensure that such limitation is not exceeded.

              (b) For purposes of this Section 18.4, the following terms shall
have the following meanings:

         1.   "Defined Contribution Fraction" shall mean, as to any Participant
              for any Plan Year, a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the
              sum of Annual Additions, for the Plan Year and all prior Plan
              Years, as of the close of the Plan Year and (B) the denominator of
              which is the sum of the lesser of the following amounts,
              determined for such Plan Year and for each prior Year of Service
              (i) the product of 1.25 multiplied by the dollar limitation in
              effect for such Year under Section 18.2(a) or (ii) the product of
              1.4 multiplied by the amount which may be taken into account under
              Section 18.2(b) with respect to the Participant for such Year;
              provided, however, that for years ending prior to January 1, 1976,
              the numerator of such fraction shall in no event be deemed to
              exceed the denominator of such fraction; and, further provided,
              that the Administrative Committee, in determining the Defined
              Contribution Fraction may elect to use the special transitional
              rules permitted by Section 415 of the Code and IRS Regulations
              thereunder; and

         2.   "Defined Benefit Fraction" shall mean, as to any Participant for
              any Plan Year, a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the
              projected annual benefit (determined as of the close of the Plan
              Year and in accordance with IRS Regulations) of the Participant
              under any defined benefit plan (as defined in Sections 414(j) and
              415(k) of the Code) maintained by the Company or any of its
              Affiliates and (B) the denominator is the lesser of (i) the
              product of 1.25 multiplied by the dollar limitation in effect
              under Section 415(b)(1) (A) of the Code for such Plan Year or (ii)
              the product of 1.4 multiplied by an amount equal to 100% of the
              Participant's average compensation for his high three years within
              the meaning of Section 415(b)(3) of the Code for such Plan Year.

              (c) In the case of a Participant with respect to whom the sum of
the Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction exceeds 1.0
with respect to the last Plan Year beginning before January 1, 1983, an amount,
determined in accordance with IRS Regulations, may be subtracted from the
numerator of the Defined Contribution Fraction (not exceeding such numerator) so
that the sum of such Participant's Defined Contribution Fraction and his Defined
Benefit Fraction computed under Section 18.4(a) does not exceed 1.0 for the last
Plan Year beginning before January 1, 1983.

              (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 18.4,
in determining the maximum Annual Addition for any Plan Year beginning before
January 1, 1987, the Annual Addition shall not be recomputed to treat all
Voluntary Contributions as an Annual Addition.

              (e) The provisions of this Section 18.4 shall not apply with
respect to any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 1999.

                        SECTION 19. TOP HEAVY PROVISIONS

         19.1 The Plan will be considered a Top Heavy Plan for any Plan Year if
it is determined to be a Top Heavy Plan as of the last day of the preceding Plan
Year (or, with respect to the first Plan Year, the last day of such Plan Year).
For purposes of determining whether the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan, when
appropriate, actuarial assumptions which reflect reasonable mortality experience
and a reasonable interest rate that uniformly applies for accrual purposes under
all plans maintained by the Company and its Affiliates shall be used. The Value
of a Participant's Account shall be determined as of the last Valuation Date
used for computing Plan costs for minimum contribution purposes which occurs
within the Plan Year in which the determination is being made, and shall include
amounts distributed to or on behalf of the Participant within the four preceding
Plan Years. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the provisions of
this Section 19 shall apply and supersede all other provisions of the Plan
during each Plan Year with respect to which the Plan is determined to be a Top
Heavy Plan.

         19.2 For purposes of this Section 19 and as otherwise used in the Plan,
the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

         (a) "Determination Date" means the last day of the preceding Plan Year
or the last day of the first Plan Year.

         (b) "Key Employee" means

              (i) each person (and his Beneficiary) who at any time during the
five Plan Years ending on the Determination Date:

              (A) was an officer of the Company or an Affiliate having an annual
Salary greater than 50% of the amount in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of
the Code for any such Plan Year;

              (B) was one of the 10 Employees owning the largest interest of the
Company and its Affiliates but only if he received Salary equal to or greater
than the dollar amount applied for purposes of Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code
for the calendar year ending coincident with or immediately after the
Determination Date;

              (C) was a Five Percent Owner; or

              (D) owned more than one percent of the Company's shares of stock
or more than one percent of the total combined voting power of the Company's
shares of stock ("One Percent Owner"), and whose annual Salary from the Company
exceeds $150,000.

              (ii) The following special rules apply to this definition:

              (A) No more than 50 officers, or, if less, the greater of three or
10% of all Employees will be Key Employees under Section 19.2(b)(i)(A). If there
are more officers than are counted under the preceding sentence, only those who
had the highest aggregate Salary, during the five Plan Years ending on the
Determination Date will be considered Key Employees.

              (B) A person is an officer only if he is in regular and continued
service as an administrative executive of the Company or a Participating
Company.

              (C) No person will be a Key Employee under more than one paragraph
of this definition unless he also is a Beneficiary of a deceased Key Employee.

              (D) A person will be treated as owning all shares of stock which
he owns directly or constructively by application of Section 318 of the Code.

              (E) For purposes of determining whether a person is a One Percent
or Five Percent Owner of the Company or any Affiliate, his ownership interest in
any entity related to the Company solely by reason of Sections 414(b), (c) and
(m) of the Code shall be disregarded.

              (F) For purposes of determining whether a person receives an
annual Salary of more than $150,000, Salary received from each Employer required
to be aggregated under Sections 414(b), (c) and (m) of the Code shall be taken
into account.

         (c) "Non-Key Employee" means (i) any Employee who is not a Key
Employee, or (ii) a Beneficiary of a Non-Key Employee.

         (d) "Permissive Aggregation Group" means all qualified employee pension
benefit plans in the Required Aggregation Group and any qualified employee
pension benefit plans sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate which are not
part of the Required Aggregation Group, but which satisfy the requirements of
Sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code when considered together with the
Required Aggregation Group and which the Company elects to have included in the
Permissive Aggregation Group.

         (e) "Required Aggregation Group" means the Plan and any other qualified
employee pension benefit plan that was sponsored or terminated during the five
year period ending on the applicable Determination Date by the Company or an
Affiliate (i) in which a Key Employee participates or (ii) which enables the
Plan to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) or 410 of the Code.

         (f) "Top Heavy Group" means all qualified employee pension benefit
plans of the Company and its Affiliates in the Required Aggregation Group and
any other qualified employee benefit plan of the Company and its Affiliates
which the Company elects to aggregate as part of a Permissive Aggregation Group
if, on any Determination Date, the Value of the cumulative annual accrued
benefits for Key Employees under all defined benefit plans and the aggregate
Value of all Key Employees' accounts under all defined contribution plans exceed
60% of a similar sum determined for all Employees. For purposes of this
computation, the account balances and cumulative annual accrued benefits of a
Participant (i) who is a Non-Key Employee but who was a Key Employee in a prior
Plan Year, or (ii) who has not been credited with at least one Hour of Service
with any Employer at any time during the five year period ending on the
Determination Date will be disregarded. If the aggregated plans do not have the
same Determination Date, this test will be made using the Value calculated as of
each plan's Determination Date occurring during the same Plan Year.

         (g) "Top Heavy Plan" means the Plan if, on any Determination Date, the
present Value of the Accounts under the Plan for Key Employees exceeds 60% of
the Value of the Accounts under the Plan for all Employees. For purposes of the
comparison, the Accounts of all Non-Key Employees who were, but no longer are,
Key Employees will be disregarded. The Plan is Super Top Heavy if it would be a
Top Heavy Plan if 90% were substituted for 60% wherever it appears in the
definition of Top Heavy Plan and Top Heavy Group.

         (h) "Top Heavy Plan Year" means any Plan Year during which the Plan is
Top Heavy or part of a Top Heavy Group.

         (i) "Value" means

              (i) or all defined benefit plans, the present value calculated as
provided in those plans; and

              (ii) for all defined contribution plans, the fair market value of
each Participant's account (including amounts attributable to voluntary employee
contributions from a qualified employee pension benefit plan sponsored by the
Company or an Affiliate) determined as of the most recent Determination Date
increased by:

              (A) distributions made during the five Plan Years ending on the
Determination Date (except distributions already included in determining the
Value of the accounts and distributions made during the five Plan Years
preceding the Determination Date under a terminated plan which, if it had not
been terminated, would have been required to be included in the Required
Aggregation Group); and

              (B) all rollover contributions distributed from the plans to a
qualified employee benefit plan not sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate,
and decreased by;

              (C) any deductible Employee contributions; and

              (D) rollover contributions received by the plans from a qualified
employee benefit plan not sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate; and

              (E) rollover contributions distributed from the Plan to a
qualified employee pension benefit plan sponsored by the Company or an
Affiliate.

         19.3 Subject to Section 19.4, for each Plan Year that the Plan is a Top
Heavy Plan, the Employer's contribution allocable to the Account of each Non-Key
Employee, regardless of his Salary, who has satisfied the eligibility
requirements of Section 3.1, whether or not a Participant in the Plan, and who
is in Service at the end of the Plan Year shall not be less than the lesser of
(i) three percent of such Non-Key Employee's Salary (or to the extent required
by the Code or Section 1.415-2(d) of the IRS Regulations), or (ii) the
percentage at which contributions for such Plan Year are made and allocated on
behalf of the Key Employee for whom such percentage is the highest. For the
purpose of determining the appropriate percentage under clause (ii), all defined
contribution plans required to be included in an Aggregation Group shall be
treated as one plan. Clause (ii) shall not be applicable if the Plan is required
to be included in an Aggregation Group which enables a defined benefit plan also
required to be included in said Aggregation Group to satisfy Sections 401(a)(4)
or 410 of the Code.

         19.4 (a) For each Plan Year that the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan, 1.0
shall be substituted for 1.25 as the multiplicand of the dollar limitation in
determining the denominator of the defined benefit plan fraction and of the
defined contribution plan fraction for purposes of Section 18.4.

              (b) If, after substituting 90% for 60% wherever the latter appears
in Section 416(g) of the Code, the Plan is not determined to be a Top Heavy
Plan, the provisions of Section 19.4(a) shall not be applicable if the minimum
contribution by the Employer allocable to the Account of any Participant who is
a Non-Key Employee as specified in Section 19.3 is determined by substituting
"four percent" for "three percent".

         19.5 If, with respect to a Non-Key Employee who benefits in a Plan Year
under both a defined contribution and defined benefit plan which are Top Heavy
Plans maintained by the Employer, a top-heavy minimum benefit is not provided
for such Plan Year under both plans, then such determination for such Plan Year
shall be made in conformity with the comparability analysis described in Q&A
M-12 of Section 1.416-1 of the IRS Regulations. Such analysis shall be modified,
where a factor of 1.25 is utilized for such Plan Year in connection with the
satisfaction of the limitations set forth in Section 415(e) of the Code, in
accordance with the last sentence of Q&A M-14 of Section 1.416-1 of the IRS
Regulations.EXHIBIT 10.4(a)(i)

                                    AMENDMENT
                                       TO
                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
                              --------------------

       "The following definition of Change in Control shall apply for purposes
of Paragraph 10(f) of the Agreement:

       Change in Control. Change in Control of the Company shall be deemed to
       have occurred as of the first day any one or more of the following
       conditions shall have been satisfied:

       (a) the acquisition by any person 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")) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule
       13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of 25% or more of either (i) the then
       outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or (ii) the combined
       voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company
       entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, provided that
       the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (i)
       any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding any acquisition by
       virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege), (ii) any acquisition
       by the Company; (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or
       related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company, or any corporation
       controlled by the Company, or (iv) any acquisition by any corporation
       pursuant to a reorganization, merger or consolidation, if following such
       reorganization, merger or consolidation the conditions described in
       clause (iii) of paragraph (c) below are met.

       (b) Individuals who, as of May 20, 1998 constitute the Board of Directors
       of the Company (the "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 May 20, 1998 whose election, or
       nomination for election by the Company shareholders, 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 an
       actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or
       removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of
       proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board; or

       (c) The stockholders of the Company approve: (i) a plan of complete
       liquidation of the Company; or (ii) an agreement for the sale or
       disposition of all or substantially all the Company's assets; or (iii) a
       merger, consolidation, or reorganization of the Company with or involving
       any other corporation, limited liability entity or similar person, other
       than a merger, consolidation, or reorganization that would result in the
       voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto
       continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being
       converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at least
       seventy-five percent (75%) of the combined voting power of the voting
       securities of the Company (or such surviving entity) outstanding
       immediately after such merger, consolidation, or reorganization."

       All provisions of the Agreement not specifically mentioned in this
Amendment shall be considered modified to the extent necessary to be consistent
with the changes made by this Amendment.

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Employee has hereunto set his hand and the
Company has caused this Amendment to be executed.
