As calculated

		3.3	Pre-Tax Profit – Pre-Tax Profit shall mean profit before provision for Federal and State income and franchise tax and before provision for bonuses paid under the Plan.  Pre-Tax Profit shall be based on final figures for the fiscal year after all audit adjustments and final corporate allocations, and shall not include non-operating gains or losses resulting from extraordinary events such as the sale of a significant part of the fixed assets of the Corporation, any Subsidiary or a Division, the valuation of Aged Stock inventories, or changes in acquisition related reserves for which such changes are due to pre-acquisition activities of the acquired company.  In addition, as the Corporation elected to move to a LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) basis for inventory valuation purposes effective Fiscal 2008, Pre-Tax Profits and the Bonus Base shall be adjusted to reflect the net worth of the Corporation on a FIFO (First-In, First-Out) basis for purposes of calculating performance under this Plan.  The statutory U.S. corporate tax rate for the year shall be used to calculate the adjustment to consolidated tangible net worth on a FIFO basis for such year.  It will be the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer as to the definition of non-operating gains, Aged Stock and acquisition-related reserves.

		3.4	Authority to Determine Amounts Taken into Account and Amounts Payable – The Executive Committee shall make all determinations regarding the amounts of the Corporation's Prior Year End Net Worth, Pre-Tax Profit, carryforward losses and other factors that enter into bonus computations under the Plan, and its determinations shall be final.  The Executive Committee may decide, in its discretion, before the end of the fiscal year to decrease the amount otherwise payable to any Eligible Employee for that fiscal year, and its decisions need not be uniform with respect to similarly situated employees and shall be final; provided, however, that the bonus of the Corporation's executive officers shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

	4.	PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

		4.1	Form of Payment – All amounts payable under this Plan shall be paid at the direction of the Executive Committee or, with respect to the Corporation's executive officers, at the direction of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, in a lump sum in cash, subject to Section 4.3.

		4.2	Timing of Payment – All amounts payable under this Plan shall be paid within 75 days after the end of the fiscal year to which the bonus relates.  No bonus shall be paid to any employee who is not employed by the Corporation on the last day of the fiscal year and who terminated employment with the Corporation for reasons other then a Normal Retirement, Disability or death.

		4.3	Election to Receive Bonus in Shares of Common Stock.

		4.3.1	Election Procedure – Each Eligible Employee may elect to forego receipt of all or a portion of the bonus otherwise payable in cash under Section 4.1 in exchange for Common Stock issued under this Plan.  The number of shares of Common Stock received by any Eligible Employee with respect to a payment date described in Section 4.2 shall equal the amount of foregone cash bonus less the amount required to satisfy the Corporation's tax withholding obligations with respect to the foregone cash bonus, divided by the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of a share of Common Stock on the relevant payment date, rounded down to the nearest whole share, with the dollar amount of any fractional share paid in cash on the payment date.  For the purpose of this Plan, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on a given date shall be the consolidated closing bid price on that date as reported by the NASDAQ Stock Market or, if greater, the mean between the closing bid and asked prices for that date.  If there are no Common Stock transactions on such date, the Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the immediately preceding date on which there were Common Stock transactions

		4.3.2	Election – An Eligible Employee may elect Common Stock in place of cash by submitting a written or electronic election to the Chief Administrative Officer of the Corporation, in such form as the Corporation determines, by the date established by the Executive Committee for the year to which the election relates.

		4.3.4	Share Shortfalls – If any election under this Plan would cause the number of shares of Common Stock required to be issued under this Plan to exceed the authorized shares, then any then current elections of Eligible Employees shall be reduced or disregarded to the extent necessary, as determined by the Executive Committee in an equitable manner, to avoid exceeding the authorized shares.  No further elections shall be made or shall be valid until such time, if any, as additional shares of Common Stock become available for purchase under this Plan.

		4.3.5	Delivery of Shares – As soon as practicable after the relevant payment date, but in no event later than June 30th following that payment date, the Corporation shall cause a share certificate to be issued to, or an entry to be made in the authorized brokerage account of, each participating Eligible Employee for the number of shares of Common Stock due to him or her pursuant to an election.  No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued or authorized brokerage account entry made.

		4.4	Shares Available Under the Plan.

		4.4.1	Number of Authorized Shares – There are reserved for issuance pursuant to this Plan 500,000 shares of the Corporation's Common Stock.  The Executive Committee shall determine whether to issue Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock in each year under this Plan and such determination shall be communicated to Eligible Employees prior to any election pursuant to Section 4.3.2.

		4.4.2	Adjustments in Authorized Shares – If a dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, forward or reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, share exchange, liquidation, dissolution, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Corporation's Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, then the Executive Committee shall, in such manner as it may determine equitable, substitute or adjust any or all of the remaining limits on the number and kind of shares available under the Plan.
