After
all required accounting adjustments, the Trustee, in accord with the direction of the Administration Committee, shall make payment of the Participant's Vested Accrued Benefit in cash or in kind

The
Administration Committee is authorized and directed to charge certain Plan expenses to certain Participants, to the extent permitted by law and related regulations. Specifically, the

who maintains an IDP account. The Administration Committee is authorized to pay these expenses from the Trust and allocate the expenses to relevant Participants' Accounts. The Administration Committee
shall determine the amount of the distribution fee and may adjust the fee from time to time, at its discretion, provided that the fee must be reasonable with respect to the services provided.

9.2(a)
General. A Participant shall be entitled to make withdrawals form his Salary Deferral Account prior to termination of Service in the case of and
to the extent required by a hardship, subject to the limitations and conditions of this Section. A hardship exists if a withdrawal is necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the
Participant, and is in an amount necessary to satisfy the financial need. 

(1)    Subject
to the limitations stated herein, any hardship withdrawal shall first be made pro-rata from the Participant's Account. 

(2)    Hardship
withdrawals from a Participant's Salary Deferral Account are limited to the Participant's total Salary Deferral Contributions as of the date of the withdrawal, plus amounts
treated as such under Treas. Reg. § 1.401(k)-1(b)(5) and earnings on all such amounts through December 31, 1988 (or the market value of the Participant's Salary Deferral

the foregoing, no hardship distribution will be allowed for a Participant whose eligible amount under subparagraph 1 is less then $500. 

(4)    Hardship
determinations shall be made according to the standards set forth below in subsections (b) and (c). These standards shall be modified in accordance with revenue

distributions to be deemed necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need. 

        (b)   Immediate and Heavy Financial Need.

Participant's spouse, children, or dependents (as defined in section 152); or 

(4)    Payments
necessary to prevent the eviction of the Participant from the Participant's principal residence or foreclosure on the mortgage on that residence. 

        (c)   Withdrawal Necessary to Satisfy Financial Need.

        A
withdrawal will be deemed necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of Participant if and only if the Participant certifies and agrees that all of the following
requirements are satisfied: 

        (1)    The
distribution is not in excess of the amount of the immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant. The amount of an immediate and heavy financial need may
include any amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution; 

        (2)    The
Participant has obtained all distributions, other than hardship distributions, and all nontaxable (at the time of the loan) loans currently available under all plans
maintained by the employer; 

        (3)    The
Participant will not make elective contributions and employee contributions to the plan and all other plans maintained by the Company for at least 12 months
after receipt of the hardship distribution. For this purpose the phrase "all other plans maintained by the Company means all qualified and non qualified plans of deferred compensation maintained by
the Company, including without limitation, stock option, stock purchase, or similar plans. 

	(c)
	Suspension of Salary Deferral Contributions. Effective for Hardship Withdrawals effected on or after October 1, 2003, a
