(c)  The Plan is intended to provide benefits for a "select group of management
     or highly compensated employees" within the meaning of Sections 201, 301
     and 401 of ERISA, and therefore to be exempt from the provisions of Parts
     2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA.  Accordingly, the Plan shall terminate and,
     except for benefits or portions of benefits that have vested (which at the
     option of the Board, may be accelerated and the balance paid in a single,
     Actuarial Equivalent lump sum), no further benefits shall be paid hereunder
     in the event it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an
     opinion of the Company's regular outside employee benefits counsel that the
     Plan constitutes an employee pension benefit plan within the meaning of
     Section 3(2) of ERISA which is not so exempt.

Section 7.2 - Limitation on Rights of Employees

The Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Company and
shall not constitute a contract between the Company and any Employee, or
consideration for, or an inducement or condition of, the employment of an
Employee.  Nothing contained in the Plan shall give any Employee the right to be
retained in the service of the Company or to interfere with or restrict the
right of the Company, which is hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or retire
any Employee, except as provided by law, at any time without notice and with or
without cause.  Inclusion under the Plan will not give any Employee any right or
claim to any benefit hereunder except to the extent such right has specifically
become fixed under the terms of the Plan and there are funds available therefor
in the hands of the Company.  The doctrine of substantial performance shall have
no application to Employees, Participants or any other persons entitled to
payments under the Plan.  Each condition and provision, including numerical
items, has been carefully considered and constitutes the minimum limit on
performance, which will give rise to the applicable right.

Section 7.3 -  Plan Binding in Event of Consolidation or Merger; Adoption of
               Plan by Other Companies

(a)  In the event of the consolidation or merger of a Company with or into any
     other corporation, this Plan shall be binding on such new corporation.

(b)  Any Company or Company Affiliate may, with the approval of the Board, the
     Compensation Committee or the CEO, adopt the Plan as a whole company or as
     to any one or more divisions effective as of the first day of any Plan Year
     by resolution of its own board of directors or agreement of its partners.
     Such Company or Company Affiliate shall give written notice of such
     adoption to the Committee by its duly authorized officers.

Section 7.4 - Assignments, etc.  Prohibited

Except for the withholding of any tax under the laws of the United States or any
state or locality, no part of a Participant's Benefit hereunder shall be liable
for the debts, contracts or engagements of any Participant, his Beneficiaries or
successors in interest, or be taken in execution by levy, attachment or
garnishment or by any other legal or equitable proceeding prior to distribution,
nor shall any such person have any rights to alienate, anticipate, commute,
pledge, encumber or assign any Benefits or payments hereunder in any manner
whatsoever except to designate a Beneficiary as provided herein.

Section 7.5 - Errors and Misstatements

In the event of any misstatement or omission of fact by a Participant to the
Committee or any clerical error resulting in payment of benefits in an incorrect
amount, the Committee shall promptly cause the amount of future payments to be
corrected upon discovery of the facts and shall cause the Company to pay the
Participant or any other person entitled to payment under the Plan any
underpayment in cash in a lump sum or to recoup any overpayment from future
payments to the Participant or any other person entitled to payment under the
Plan in such amounts as the Committee shall direct or to proceed against the
Participant or any other person entitled to payment under the Plan for recovery
of any such overpayment.

Section 7.6 - Payment on Behalf of Minor, Etc.

In the event any amount becomes payable under the Plan to a minor or a person
who, in the sole judgment of the Committee is considered by reason of physical
or mental condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the
Committee may direct that such payment be made to any person found by the
Committee in its sole judgment, to have assumed the care of such minor or other
person.  Any payment made pursuant to such determination shall constitute a full
release and discharge of the Company, the Board, the Committee and their
officers, directors and employees.

Section 7.7 - Governing Law

This Plan shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects under
and by applicable federal laws and, where, state law is applicable, the laws of
the State of California.

Section 7.8 - Pronouns and Plurality

The masculine pronoun shall include the feminine pronoun, and the singular the
plural where the context so indicates.

Section 7.9 - Titles

Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis
for interpretation or construction of the Plan.

Section 7.10 - References

Unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary, a reference to a statute,
regulation or document shall be construed as referring to any subsequently
enacted, adopted or executed statute, regulation or document.
