accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of Awards, cancel or modify
outstanding Awards, waive any conditions or restrictions imposed with respect to
Awards or the Common Stock issued pursuant to Awards and make any and all other
interpretations and determinations which it deems necessary with respect to the
administration of the Plan, subject to the limitations contained in Section 4(d)
with respect to all Participants and subject to the provisions of Section 162(m)
of the Code with respect to Covered Employees. The Committee's right to make any
decision, interpretation or determination under the Plan shall be in its sole
and absolute discretion.

      (b) ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The administration of the Plan shall be
managed by the Committee. The Committee shall have the power to prescribe and
modify, as necessary, the form of Award Agreement, to correct any defect, supply
any omission or clarify any inconsistency in the Plan and/or in any Award
Agreement and to take such actions and make such administrative determinations

final, binding and conclusive on all parties concerned, including the Company,
its stockholders and Subsidiaries and all Participants.

      (c) DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY. The Committee may at any time delegate to one
or more officers or directors of the Company some or all of its authority over
the administration of the Plan, with respect to persons who are not Section
16(a) Officers or Covered Employees.

      (e) INDEMNIFICATION. No member of the Committee shall be personally liable
for any action or determination made with respect to the Plan, except for his or
her own willful misconduct or as expressly provided by statute. The members of
the Committee shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement. In the

      (b) PARTICIPATION BY SUBSIDIARIES. Employees of Subsidiaries may
participate in the Plan upon approval of the Awards by the Committee. A
Subsidiary's participation in the Plan may be terminated at any time by the
Committee. If a Subsidiary's participation in the Plan shall terminate, such
termination shall not relieve it of any obligations theretofore incurred by it
under the Plan, except with the approval of the Committee.

       (c) PARTICIPATION OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES. The Committee or its
designee shall have the authority to amend the Plan and/or the terms and
conditions relating to an Award to the extent necessary to permit participation
in the Plan by Employees who are located outside of the United States on terms
and conditions comparable to those afforded to Employees located within the
United States, provided that any such action taken with respect to a Covered
Employee shall be taken in compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code.

      (d) CANCELLATION AND MODIFICATION OF AWARDS. In the event of a change in a
Participant's duties and responsibilities, or a transfer of the Participant to a
different position, the Committee may cancel or modify any Award granted to such
Participant or adjust the number of shares of Common Stock subject thereto
commensurate with the transfer or change in responsibility, as determined by the
Committee, in its discretion, provided that no such action shall violate the
provisions of Section 4(d), and further provided that any such action taken with
respect to a Covered Employee shall be taken in compliance with Section 162(m)
of the Code.

6.    AVAILABLE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

      (a) SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to
Awards granted under the Plan will be shares that have been authorized but
unissued, which would include shares that have been previously issued and
reacquired by the Company. Reacquired shares may consist of shares purchased in
open market transactions. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 6,
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to
Participants pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall not exceed One
Hundred

                                       4
<PAGE>

Twenty Million (120,000,000) shares of Common Stock, which amount includes Stock
Options, Deferred Stock and Restricted Stock issued to Employees in substitution
of stock options and restricted stock held by such Employees with respect to
shares of common stock of Citigroup Inc.

      (b) FORFEITED AWARDS. Awards or portions of Awards made under the Plan
which are forfeited, expire or are canceled, or are settled without issuance of
shares of Common Stock, shall not count towards the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a), and
shall not count towards the limitation set forth in Section 6(e)(iii).

      (c) SHARES USED TO PAY EXERCISE PRICE AND TAXES. If a Participant pays the
exercise price of an Option by surrendering previously owned shares of Common
Stock, as may be permitted by the Committee and/or arranges to have the
appropriate number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon exercise
withheld to cover the withholding tax liability associated with the Option
exercise, the surrendered shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock used
to pay taxes shall not count towards the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a). If a
Participant, as permitted by the Committee, arranges to have an appropriate
number of shares of a Stock Award withheld by the Company to cover the
withholding tax associated with such Stock Award, the shares of Common Stock
used to pay taxes shall not count towards the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a), and shall
not count towards the limitation set forth in Section 6(e)(iii).

      (d) OTHER ITEMS NOT INCLUDED IN ALLOCATION. The maximum number of shares
of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a),
or pursuant to the limitation set forth in Section 6(e)(iii), shall not be
affected by (i) the payment in cash of dividends or dividend equivalents in
connection with outstanding Awards; (ii) the granting or payment of
stock-denominated Awards which by their terms may be settled only in cash; or
(iii) Awards that are granted through the assumption of, or in substitution for,
outstanding awards previously granted to individuals who have become Employees
as a result of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition or other corporate
transaction involving the Company or a Subsidiary.

      (e) OTHER LIMITATIONS ON SHARES WHICH MAY BE GRANTED UNDER THE PLAN.

            (i) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be
granted to any single individual during the term of the Plan in the form of
Options (including Reload Options and ISOs) and/or SARs shall not exceed twenty
million ( 20,000,000).

            (ii) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be
granted in the form of ISOs shall not exceed fifty million (50,000,000).

                                       5
<PAGE>

            (iii) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be
granted in the form of a Stock Award shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of
the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in
Section 6(a).

      (f) ADJUSTMENTS. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split,
combination or exchange of equity securities, merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, reorganization, divestiture or other distribution (other than
ordinary cash dividends) of assets to stockholders, or any other similar event
affecting the Common Stock, the Committee may make such adjustments as it may
deem appropriate, in its discretion, to: (i) the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a);
(ii) to the extent permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code, the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted pursuant to Section
6(e)(i); (iii) to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code, the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted pursuant to Section
6(e)(ii); (iv) the number or kind of shares subject to an Award; (v) subject to
the limitation contained in Section 4(d), the Exercise Price applicable to an
Award; (vi) any measure of performance that relates to an Award in order to
reflect such change in the Common Stock; (vii) the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock that may be granted pursuant to the limitation set forth in Section
6(e)(iii); and/or (viii) any other affected terms of any Award.

7.    AWARDS UNDER THE PLAN

      Awards under the Plan may be granted as Options, SARs or Stock Awards, as
described below. Awards may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem as
determined by the Committee, in its discretion.

      (a) OPTIONS. Options granted under the Plan may be non-qualified stock
options, ISOs or any other type of stock option permitted under the Code, as
evidenced by the related Award Agreements.

            (i) ISOs. The terms and conditions of any ISOs granted hereunder
shall be subject to the provisions of Section 422 of the Code and the terms,
conditions, limitations and administrative procedures established by the
Committee, from time to time. At the discretion of the Committee, ISOs may be
granted to any Employee of the Company and its subsidiaries, as such term is
defined in Section 424(f) of the Code. No ISO may be granted to any Participant
who, at the time of such grant, owns more than ten percent of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, unless
(i) the Option Price for such ISO is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of a
share of Common Stock on the date the ISO is granted and (ii) the date on which
such ISO terminates is a date not later than the day preceding the fifth
anniversary of the date on which the ISO is granted. Any Participant who
disposes of shares acquired upon the exercise of an ISO either (i) within two
years after the date of grant of such ISO or (ii) within one year after the
transfer of such shares to the Participant, shall notify the Company of such
disposition and of the amount realized upon such disposition. All Options
granted under the Plan are intended to be nonqualified stock options, unless the
applicable Award Agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an
ISO. If an Option is intended to be an ISO, and if for any reason such Option
(or portion thereof) shall not qualify as

                                       6
<PAGE>

an ISO, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option (or portion
thereof) shall be regarded as a nonqualified stock option granted under the
Plan; provided that such Option (or portion thereof) otherwise complies with the
Plan's requirements relating to nonqualified stock options.

            (ii) RELOAD OPTIONS. If a Participant tenders shares of Common Stock
to pay the exercise price of an Option, and/or arranges to have a portion of the
shares otherwise issuable upon exercise withheld or sold to pay the applicable
withholding taxes, the Participant may receive, at the discretion of the
Committee, a new "Reload Option" equal to the sum of the number of shares
tendered to pay the exercise price and the number of shares used to pay the
withholding taxes. Reload Options may be any type of option permitted under the
Code and will be granted subject to such terms, conditions, restrictions and
limitations as may be determined by the Committee, from time to time. Reload
Options may also be granted in connection with the exercise of options granted
under any other plan of the Company which may be designated by the Committee,
from time to time.

            (iii) EXERCISE PRICE. The Committee shall determine the exercise
price per share for each Option, which shall not be less than 100% of the Fair
Market Value at the time of grant; provided however, such limitation shall not
apply to Options that are issued to Employees in conjunction with the
distribution of shares of Common Stock to stockholders of Citigroup and in
substitution of stock options held by such Employees with respect to shares of
common stock of Citigroup, Inc.

            (iv) EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. Upon satisfaction of the applicable
conditions relating to vesting and exercisability, as determined by the
Committee, and upon payment in full of the Exercise Price and applicable taxes
due, the Participant shall be entitled to exercise the Option and receive the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with the Option
exercise. The shares issued in connection with the Option exercise may be
subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Committee may determine, from
time to time. The exercise price of an Option and applicable withholding taxes
relating to an Option exercise may be paid by methods permitted by the Committee
from time to time including: (1) a cash payment in US dollars; (2) tendering
(either actually or by attestation) shares of Common Stock owned by the
Participant for at least six (6) months (or such other period as established
from time to time by the Committee), valued at the Fair Market Value at the time
of exercise; (3) arranging to have the appropriate number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of an Option withheld or sold; or (4) any
combination of the above.

            (v) OPTION TERM. The term of an Option granted under the Plan shall
not exceed ten (10) years.

                                       7
<PAGE>

      (b) STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. A stock appreciation right ("SAR")
represents the right to receive a payment in cash, whole shares of Common Stock,
or a combination thereof, in an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market
Value of a specified number of shares of Common Stock at the time the SAR is
exercised over an amount which shall be no less than the Fair Market Value of
the same number of shares at the time the SAR was granted, except that if a SAR
is granted retroactively in substitution for an Option, the Fair Market Value
established by the Committee may be the Fair Market Value at the time such
Option was granted. Any such substitution of a SAR for an Option granted to a
Covered Employee may only be made in compliance with the provisions of Section
162(m) of the Code. The term of a SAR shall not exceed ten (10) years.

      (c)   STOCK AWARDS.

            (i) FORM OF AWARDS. The Committee may grant Awards ("Stock Awards")
which are payable in shares of Common Stock or denominated in units equivalent
in value to shares of Common Stock or are otherwise based on or related to
shares of Common Stock, including, but not limited to Awards of Restricted
Stock, Deferred Stock and Stock Units, subject to such terms, conditions,
restrictions and limitations as the Committee may determine to be applicable to
such Awards, in its discretion, from time to time. In order to reflect the
impact of the conditions, restrictions or limitations applicable to a Stock
Award, as well as the possibility of forfeiture or cancellation, the Fair Market
Value may be discounted at a rate determined by the Committee, from time to
time, for purposes of determining the number of shares of Common Stock allocable
to a Stock Award.

            (ii) STOCK PAYMENT. Shares of Common Stock may be used as payment
for compensation which otherwise would have been delivered in cash (including,
without limitation, any compensation that is intended to qualify as
performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code), and
unless otherwise determined by the Committee, no minimum vesting period will
apply to such shares. Any shares of Common Stock used for such payment will be
valued at the Fair Market Value of such shares at the time of payment and shall
be subject to such terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations as shall be
determined by the Committee at the time of payment.

            (iii) RESTRICTED STOCK. Awards of Restricted Stock shall be subject
to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, vesting and forfeiture provisions
determined by the Committee, in its discretion, from time to time. The number of
shares of Restricted Stock allocable to an Award under the Plan shall be
determined by the Committee, pursuant to a formula approved by the Committee
from time to time. In order to reflect the impact of the restrictions on the
value of the Restricted Stock, as well as the possibility of forfeiture of the
Restricted Stock, the Fair Market Value may be discounted at a rate to be
determined by the Committee, for purposes of determining the number of shares
allocable to an Award of Restricted Stock. Unless the Committee determines
otherwise, Awards of Restricted Stock will carry a minimum vesting period of one
(1) year.

                                       8
<PAGE>

            (iv) DEFERRED STOCK. Awards of Deferred Stock shall be subject to
the conditions, limitations, and cancellation provisions determined by the
Committee, in its discretion, from time to time. A Participant who receives an
Award of Deferred Stock shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of
Common Stock allocable to his or her Award, as determined by the Committee,
pursuant to a formula approved by the Committee from time to time, at the end of
a specified deferral period determined by the Committee. In order to reflect the
impact of the deferral conditions on the value of an Award of Deferred Stock, as
well as the possibility of cancellation of the Deferred Stock Award, the Fair
Market Value may be discounted at a rate to be determined by the Committee, for
purposes of determining the number of shares allocable to an Award of Deferred
Stock. Awards of Deferred Stock represent only an unfunded, unsecured promise to
deliver shares in the future and do not give Participants any greater rights
than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.

            (v) STOCK UNITS. A Stock Unit is an Award denominated in shares of
Common Stock, pursuant to a formula determined by the Committee, which may be
settled either in shares of Common Stock or in cash, in the discretion of the
Committee, subject to such other terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations
determined by the Committee from time to time.

8.    FORFEITURE PROVISIONS FOLLOWING A TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

      In any instance where the rights of a Participant with respect to an Award
extend past the date of termination of a Participant's employment, all of such
rights shall terminate and be forfeited, if, in the determination of the
Committee, the Participant, at any time subsequent to his or her termination of
employment engages, directly or indirectly, either personally or as an employee,
agent, partner, stockholder, officer or director of, or consultant to, any
entity or person engaged in any business in which the Company or its affiliates
is engaged, in conduct that breaches his or her duty of loyalty to the Company
or a Subsidiary or that is in material competition with the Company or a
Subsidiary or is materially injurious to the Company or a Subsidiary, monetarily
or otherwise, which conduct shall include, but not be limited to: (i) disclosing
or misusing any confidential information pertaining to the Company or a
Subsidiary; (ii) any attempt, directly or indirectly to induce any Employee,
agent, insurance agent, insurance broker or broker-dealer of the Company or any
Subsidiary to be employed or perform services elsewhere; (iii) any attempt by a
Participant directly or indirectly to solicit the trade of any customer or
supplier or prospective customer or supplier of the Company or any Subsidiary,
or (iv) disparaging the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective
officers or directors. The determination of whether any conduct, action or
failure to act falls within the scope of activities contemplated by this Section
shall be made by the Committee, in its discretion. For purposes of this
paragraph, a Participant shall not be in violation of this Section 8 solely as a
result of the Participant's record and beneficial ownership of not more than one
percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock of any company subject to the
periodic and other reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended.

9.    DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS

                                       9
<PAGE>

      The Committee may provide that Stock Awards shall earn dividends or
dividend equivalents. Such dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid
currently or may be credited to an account maintained on the books of the
Company. Any payment or crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents will be
subject to such terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations as the Committee
may establish, from time to time, including reinvestment in additional shares of
Common Stock or common share equivalents. Unless the Committee determines
otherwise, Section 16(a) Officers may not participate in dividend reinvestment
programs established under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the
Participants' rights under the Plan with respect to extraordinary dividends or
distributions on the shares of Common Stock.

10.   VOTING

      The Committee shall determine whether a Participant shall have the right
to direct the vote of shares of Common Stock allocated to a Stock Award. If the
Committee determines that an Award shall carry voting rights, the shares
allocated to such Award shall be voted by the Company's Senior Human Resources
Officer, or such other person as the Committee may designate in accordance with
instructions received from the Participant (unless to do so would constitute a
violation of fiduciary duties). Shares as to which no instructions are received
shall be voted by the Committee or its designee proportionately in accordance
with instructions received from Participants in the Plan (unless to do so would
constitute a violation of fiduciary duties).

11.   PAYMENTS AND DEFERRALS

      Payment of Awards may be in the form of cash, shares of Common Stock,
other Awards, or combinations thereof as the Committee shall determine, subject
to such terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations as it may impose. The
Committee may postpone the exercise of Options or SARs, and may require or
permit Participants to elect to defer the receipt or issuance of shares of
Common Stock pursuant to Awards or the settlement of Awards in cash under such
rules and procedures as it may establish, in its discretion, from time to time.
It also may provide for deferred settlements of Awards including the payment or
crediting of earnings on deferred amounts, or the payment or crediting of
dividend equivalents where the deferred amounts are denominated in common share
equivalents. In addition, the Committee may stipulate in an Award Agreement,
either at the time of grant or by subsequent amendment, that a payment or
portion of a payment of an Award be delayed in the event that Section 162(m) of
the Code (or any successor or similar provision of the Code) would disallow a
tax deduction by the Company for all or a portion of such payment. The period of
any such delay in payment shall be until the payment, or portion thereof, is tax
deductible, or such earlier date as the Committee shall determine in its
discretion.

12.   TRANSFERABILITY

      Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Awards granted under the
Plan, and during any period of restriction on transferability, shares of Common
Stock issued in connection with the exercise of an Option, may not be sold,
pledged, hypothecated, assigned, margined or

                                       10
<PAGE>

otherwise transferred, other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. The Committee may permit (on such terms, conditions and
limitations as it shall establish) non-qualified Options (including
non-qualified Reload Options) and/or shares issued in connection with an Option
exercise which are subject to restrictions on transferability, to be transferred
one time to a member of a Participant's immediate family or to a trust or
similar vehicle for the benefit of a Participant's immediate family members.
Except to the extent required by law, no Award or interest of any Participant in
the Plan shall be subject to any lien, levy, attachment, pledge, obligation,
liability or bankruptcy of a Participant. During the lifetime of a Participant,
all rights with respect to Awards shall be exercisable only by such Participant
or, if applicable, a permitted transferee. An Award exercisable after the death
of a Participant may be exercised by the legatees, personal representatives or
distributes of the Participant.

13.   CHANGE OF CONTROL

      (a) The Committee may, in its discretion, at the time an Award is made
hereunder or at any time prior to, coincident with or after the time of a Change
of Control:

            (i) provide for the acceleration of any time periods relating to the
      exercise or realization of such Awards so that such Awards may be
      exercised or realized in full on or before a date fixed by the Committee;

            (ii) provide for the purchase of such Awards, upon the Participant's
      request, for an amount of cash equal to the amount which could have been
      obtained upon the exercise or realization of such rights had such Awards
      been currently exercisable or payable;

            (iii) make such adjustment to the Awards then outstanding as the
      Committee deems appropriate to reflect such transaction or change; and/or

            (iv) cause the Awards then outstanding to be assumed, or new rights
      substituted therefore, by the surviving corporation in such Change of
      Control.

      The Committee may, in its discretion, include such further provisions and
limitations in any Award Agreement as it may deem equitable and in the best
interests of the Company.

      (b) A "Change of Control" shall be deemed to occur if and when:

            (i) any person, including a "person" as such term is used in Section
      14(d)(2) of the 1934 Act (a "Person"), is or becomes a beneficial owner
      (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or
      indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the
      combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities;
      provided however, that for purposes of this subparagraph (i), "person"
      shall not include (A) for periods on or before August 20, 2002, Citigroup,
      Inc. with respect to securities of the Company that are owned, directly or
      indirectly, by Citigroup, Inc. as of the date the Plan is first adopted,
      (B) an employee benefit plan (or

                                       11
<PAGE>

      trust forming a part thereof) maintained by the Company, or (C) any
      company owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in
      substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the
      Company;

            (ii) any plan or proposal for the liquidation of the Company is
      adopted by the stockholders of the Company;

            (iii) individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board
      (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 the date hereof whose election, or nomination for
      election by the Company's stockholders, 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 either an actual or threatened
      election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A
      promulgated under the 1934 Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation
      of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board;

            (iv) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are sold,
      liquidated or distributed; or

            (v) there occurs a reorganization, merger, consolidation or other
      corporate transaction involving the Company (a "Transaction"), in each
      case, with respect to which the stockholders of the Company immediately
      prior to such Transaction do not, immediately after the Transaction, own
      more than 50 percent of the combined voting power of the Company or other
      corporation resulting from such Transaction.

      Any good faith determination by the Committee as to whether a Change of
Control within the meaning of this Section has occurred shall be conclusive and
binding on the Participants.

14.   AWARD AGREEMENTS

      Each Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by a document in writing
setting forth the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations applicable to
the Award, including, but not limited to the provisions governing vesting,
exercisability, payment, amendment, cancellation, forfeiture, and termination of
employment and the Company's authority to amend or terminate the Plan and to
amend, cancel, or rescind an Award, at any time. The Committee need not require
the execution of such document by the Participant, in which case acceptance of
the Award by the Participant shall constitute agreement by the Participant to
the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations set forth in the Plan and
the Award Agreement as well as the administrative guidelines and practices of
the Company in effect from time to time.

15.   TAX WITHHOLDING

                                       12
<PAGE>

      The Company and its Subsidiaries shall have the right to require payment
of, or may deduct from any payment made under the Plan, or may permit shares of
Common Stock to be tendered or sold, including shares of Common Stock delivered
or vested in connection with an Award, in an amount sufficient to cover
withholding of any federal, state, local, foreign or other governmental taxes or
charges required by law or such greater amount of withholding as the Committee
shall determine from time to time and to take such other action as may be
necessary to satisfy any such withholding obligations. The value of any shares
of Common Stock allowed to be withheld or tendered for tax withholding may not
exceed the amount allowed consistent with fixed plan accounting in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. It shall be a condition to the
obligation of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of
an Option or a SAR that the Participant pay to the Company, on demand, such
amount as may be requested by the Company for the purpose of satisfying any tax
withholding liability. If the amount is not paid, the Company may refuse to
issue such shares.

16.   OTHER BENEFIT AND COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

      Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Awards received by
Participants under the Plan shall not be deemed a part of a Participant's
regular, recurring compensation for purposes of calculating payments or benefits
under any Company benefit plan or severance program. No Employee shall have any
claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan. There shall be no
obligation of uniformity of treatment of Employees under the Plan and the terms
and conditions of Awards and the Committee's determinations and interpretations
with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant
(whether or not such Participants are similarly situated). Further, the Company
and its Subsidiaries may adopt other compensation programs, plans or
arrangements as it deems appropriate or necessary. The adoption of the Plan
shall not confer upon any Employee any right to continued employment in any
particular position or at any particular rate of compensation, nor shall it
interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate
the employment of its Employees at any time or change the terms and conditions
of such employment, free from any claim or liability under the Plan.

17.   UNFUNDED PLAN

      Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Plan shall be unfunded
and shall not create (or be construed to create) a trust or a separate fund or
funds. The Plan shall not establish any fiduciary relationship between the
Company and any Participant or other person. To the extent any Participant holds
any rights by virtue of an Award granted under the Plan, such rights shall
constitute general unsecured liabilities of the Company and shall not confer
upon any Participant any right, title, or interest in any assets of the Company.

18.   EXPENSES OF THE PLAN

      The expenses of the administration of the Plan shall be borne by the
Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company may require Subsidiaries to pay for
the shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan.

                                       13

19.   RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER

      Unless the Committee determines otherwise, a Participant shall not have
any rights as a stockholder with respect to shares of Common Stock covered by an
Award until the date the Participant becomes the holder of record with respect
to such shares. No adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights for
which the record date is prior to such date, except as provided in Section 9.

20.   FUTURE RIGHTS

      No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the
grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be
retained in the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary or to participate in any
other compensation or benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Company or a
Subsidiary.

21.   AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

      The Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated at any time by the
Committee, provided that no amendment shall be made without stockholder
approval, if stockholder approval is required under then applicable law,
including tax and/or accounting rules. No termination, suspension or amendment
of the Plan shall adversely affect the right of any Participant with respect to
any Award theretofore granted, as determined by the Committee, without such
Participant's written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may
amend the Plan in such manner as it deems necessary in order to permit Awards to
meet the requirements of the Code or other applicable laws. Unless terminated
earlier by the Board, the Plan will terminate on March 16, 2012.

22.   SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

      The Plan and any applicable Award Agreement entered into under the Plan
shall be binding on all successors and assigns of a Participant, including,
without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor,
administrator or trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in
bankruptcy or representative of the Participant's creditors.

23.   GOVERNING LAW

      The Plan and all agreements entered into under the Plan shall be construed
in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut, without
regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

                                  PARTICIPATION

      4.1 Election to Participate. Each Employee on the Effective Date who was
an active participant in the The Travelers Insurance Deferred Compensation Plan
on the date immediately prior thereto shall be a Participant on the Effective
Date. Thereafter, any Eligible Employee may

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

elect to participate in the Plan effective as of the first day of the Plan Year
by filing, during an Enrollment Period, a completed and fully executed
Enrollment Agreement with the Committee. For purposes of this Section 4.1, any
enrollment agreement completed and executed by a Participant with respect to his
or her participation under The Travelers Insurance Deferred Compensation Plan
that is in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be treated as an
Enrollment Agreement under this Plan. A separate Enrollment Agreement must be
completed for each Plan Year in which a Participant makes deferrals under the
Plan.

      For any Plan Year, an Eligible Employee may elect to defer a percentage of
Salary (not to exceed 50% of the Participant's Salary at the rate in effect
during the Plan Year, or for newly hired eligible employees 50% of their initial
annual salary prorated for the remaining months of the Plan Year) and/or a

      (a) As of the Effective Date, the separate Deferral Accounts held under
The Travelers Insurance Deferred Compensation Plan for each Participant who,
immediately prior to the Effective Date, was a participant in The Travelers
Insurance Deferred Compensation Plan and who was actively employed by the
Company or its affiliates immediately prior to and immediately following the
Effective Date, shall transfer from The Travelers Insurance Deferred
Compensation Plan and be credited to separate Deferral Accounts held under this
Plan. Such Deferral Accounts shall be in an amount equal to the amount of the
Participant's Deferral Accounts under The Travelers Insurance Deferred
Compensation Plan as of such date.

      (b) Thereafter, the Company shall establish and maintain a separate
Deferral Account for each Participant for each Deferral Account Cycle. The
amount by which a Participant's Salary or Incentive Award is reduced pursuant to
Section 4.1 shall be credited to the Participant's Deferral Account no later
than the first day of the month following the month in which such compensation
would otherwise have been paid. The Deferral Account shall be debited by the
amount of any payments made to the Participant or the Participant's Beneficiary
with respect to such Deferral Account pursuant to this Plan.

      (c) Interest on Deferral Accounts will be credited monthly at the Fixed
Income Declared Rate in the same manner as interest is credited on the Stable
Value Fund under the 401(k) Plan. A Participant's Deferral Account will continue
to be credited with the Fixed Income Declared Rate after benefit payments from
such Deferral Account commence until all such benefits have been paid and the
balance in the Deferral Account has been reduced to zero.

shall equal the amounts theretofore credited to such account, plus the interest
deemed to be earned on such account in accordance with Section 4.2(c) through
the valuation date, less the amounts theretofore debited to such account. Any
valuation shall be made as of the last business day of the month.

      4.4 Statement of Accounts. The Committee shall submit to each Participant,
within one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of each Plan Year, a
statement in such form as the Committee deems desirable setting forth the
balance standing to the credit of each Participant in each of his or her
Deferral Accounts.

                                    ARTICLE 5
                                    BENEFITS

      5.1 Retirement Benefit. A Participant is eligible for a Retirement Benefit
under this Plan when he or she has satisfied all of the requirements for
Retirement (as defined in Article 2). The Retirement Benefit for a Deferral
Account will be based on the total value of the Deferral Account.

      At the time of initial enrollment, and thereafter prior to the
commencement of each Deferral Account Cycle, a Participant shall elect to
receive a Retirement Benefit for such Deferral Account (I) commencing at
Retirement or at age 65, if later, and (II) in either a lump sum or annual
installments over 5, 10 or 15 years. Any such election shall be made in writing
pursuant to an Enrollment Agreement. The lumpsum payment will be made, or annual
installment payments will commence, approximately 30 days after Retirement or
approximately 30 days following the date on which the Participant attains age
65, according to the Participant's Enrollment Agreement. The account valuation
will be as of the last business day of the month preceding the payment date. In
the event no election has been made with respect to a Deferral Account, the
Retirement Benefit for such deferral Account will be paid in a lump sum at
Retirement or age 65, as applicable.

      For purposes of this Section 5.1, any election previously made pursuant to
an enrollment agreement completed and executed by a Participant with respect to
his or her participation under The Travelers Insurance Deferred Compensation
Plan (including any plan incorporated into such plan) shall be treated as an
election made pursuant to an Enrollment Agreement under this Plan.

      If a Participant elects to receive his or her Retirement Benefit in
installment payments, the account will be valued as of the last business day of
the month in which the Participant is deemed to be retired, or attained age 65
if applicable. Retirements are deemed to be the first of a month following the
termination of employment. The payments will be determined annually by dividing
the Participant's then current Deferral Account balance at commencement and on
each anniversary of the valuation year by the number of remaining years in the
payment period based on the Participant's retirement payment election. The Fixed
Income Declared Rate will be

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

credited during any payment year on the unpaid Deferral Account balance. After
the Participant's death, interest earned during the payment period will instead
be distributed in full.

      The Committee may, in its discretion, permit alternative form and timing
of payment elections for future deferrals, and may permit the form and timing of
payments elected by Participants (in accordance with the terms and provisions of
a plan then in effect) with respect to balances transferred into the Plan when
such transfers are authorized by the Company or the Employer in connection with
a merger, acquisition or other business combination.

      5.2 Disability. If a Participant becomes Disabled, Participant deferrals
that otherwise would have been credited to the Participant's Deferral Account
will cease during such Disability. The Participant's Deferral Accounts will
continue to earn interest. The Participant's Deferral Account balances will be
distributed as a Retirement Benefit or Survivor Benefit, whichever is
applicable, beginning on the date and in the form which the Participant elected
in his Enrollment Agreement, but in no event beginning earlier than 12 months
after the date of the Participant's Disability. In the sole discretion of the
Committee, the Company may commence payments on an earlier date.

      5.3 Termination Benefit. Notwithstanding other provisions of this Plan, if
a Participant (i) has a Termination of Employment for any reason other than
death, Disability or Retirement, or (ii) fails to return to the status of an
Employee actively at work within sixty (60) days following recovery from a
Disability prior to Retirement, the Company shall pay to the Participant in one
lump sum an amount (the "Termination Benefit") equal to the value of the
Participant's Deferral Accounts as determined under Section 4.3.

      The account valuation will be as of the last business day of the month of
termination of employment (or the end of the 60-day period following the end of
a Disability).

      5.4 Survivor Benefits. If a Participant dies, a benefit (the "Survivor
Benefit") will be paid to his Beneficiary in a lump sum in the month following
the Participant's death. The Survivor Benefit will be equal to the Deferral
Account balance(s) of the Participant.

      The account valuation will be as of the last business day of the month of
the death.

      5.5 Emergency Benefit. In the event that the Committee, upon written
petition of the Participant or beneficiary of such Participant, determines in
its sole discretion that the Participant has suffered an unforeseeable financial
emergency, the Company shall pay to the Participant, as soon as practicable
following such determination, an amount necessary to meet the emergency (the
"Emergency Benefit"). Participants who suffer an emergency prior to commencement
of benefit payments would receive an Emergency Benefit that is not in excess of
the Deferral Account balance to which such Participant would have been entitled
pursuant to Section 5.3 if he or she had a termination of employment on the date
of such determination and received a lump sum payment. Participants in the
process of receiving installment payments would receive an Emergency Benefit
that is not in excess of the remaining Deferral Account balance of the
Participant as valued on the last day of the month of such determination. For
purposes of this

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

Plan, an unforeseeable financial emergency is an unexpected need for cash
arising from an illness, casualty loss, sudden financial reversal, or other such
unforeseeable occurrence. The amount of the benefits otherwise payable under the
Plan shall thereafter be adjusted to reflect the early payment of the Emergency
Benefit.

      5.6 Small Benefit. In the event the Committee determines that the balance
of a Participant's Deferral Account is less than $10,000 at the time of
commencement of payment of his or her Retirement Benefit, or the portion of the
balance of the Participant's Deferral Account payable to any Beneficiary is less
than $10,000 at the time of commencement of payment of a Survivor Benefit to
such Beneficiary, the Company may pay the benefit in the form of a lump- sum
payment, notwithstanding any provision of this Article 5 to the contrary. Such
lump-sum payment shall be equal to the balance of the Participant's Deferral
Account or the portion thereof payable to a Beneficiary.

      5.7 Withholding; Employment Taxes. To the extent required by the law in
effect at the time payments are made, the Company shall withhold from any
amounts deferred under the Plan or from payments made hereunder the taxes
required to be withheld by the federal or any state or local government.

                                    ARTICLE 6
                             BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

      6.1 Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any
person or persons as Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to whom payments under this
Plan shall be made in the event of the Participant's death prior to complete
distribution to the Participant of the benefits due under the Plan. Each
Beneficiary designation shall become effective only when filed in writing with
the Committee on a form prescribed or accepted by the Committee.

      6.2 Any Participant shall have the right to designate a new Beneficiary at
any time by filing with the Committee a written request for such change, but any
such change shall become effective only upon receipt of such request by the
Committee. Upon receipt by the Committee of such request, the change shall
relate back to and take effect as of the date the Participant signs such request
whether or not the Participant is living at the time the Committee receives such
request.

      6.3 If there is no designated Beneficiary living at the death of the
Participant, then such payment shall be made to the participant's estate.

                                    ARTICLE 7
                        AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

      7.1 Amendment. The Company may at any time amend the Plan in whole or in
part; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be effective to decrease
the benefits accrued by

                                      -7-

any Participant prior to the date of such amendment and any change in the
definition of the Fixed Income Declared Rate shall be effective only as to Plan
Years beginning after the date of such amendment. Written notice of any
amendment shall be given to each current or former Employee then participating
in the Plan.

      7.2  Termination.

            (a) Company's Right to Terminate. The Company may at any time
      terminate the Plan, if in its judgment, the continuance of the Plan would
      not be in the best interests of the Company or its affiliates.

            (b) Payments Upon Termination. Upon termination of the Plan under
      this Section 7.2, the Participants will be deemed to have voluntarily
      terminated their participation under the Plan as of the date of such
      termination. Salary and Incentive Awards shall cease to be deferred, and
      the Company will pay to each Participant the value of each of the
      Participant's Deferral Accounts, determined as if each Participant had
      terminated employment on the date of such termination of the Plan, at such
      times and pursuant to such terms and conditions as the Committee in its
      sole discretion shall determine. Participants or Beneficiaries receiving
      Retirement Benefit installments shall receive a lump sum payment equal to
      the remaining, unpaid Deferred Account balance.

                                    ARTICLE 8
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      8.1 Unsecured General Creditor. Participants and their Beneficiaries,
heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims,
or interests in any specific property or assets of the Company, nor shall they
be beneficiaries of, or have any rights, claims, or interests in any life
insurance policies, annuity contracts, or the proceeds therefrom owned or which
may be acquired by the Company ("Policies"). Such Policies or other assets of
the Company shall not be held under any trust for the benefit of Participants,
their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, or assigns (other than a grantor trust
established to assist the Company in meeting its obligations hereunder and the
assets of which are available to general creditors if the Company becomes
insolvent), or held as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligation
of the Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company's assets and Policies
shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the
Company. The Company's obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an
unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future.

      8.2 Obligations to Company. If a Participant becomes entitled to a
distribution of benefits under the Plan, and if at such time the Participant has
outstanding any debt, obligation, or other liability representing an amount
owing to the Company or its affiliates, then the Company may offset such amount
owed to it against the amount of benefits otherwise distributable. Such
determination shall be made by the Committee.

      8.3 Nonassignability. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall
have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage
or otherwise encumber, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the
amounts, if any, payable, hereunder, or any part thereof, or interest therein
which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable
and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual
payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts,
judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other
person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant's
or any other person's bankruptcy or insolvency.

      8.4 Employment Not Guaranteed. Nothing contained in this Plan nor any
action taken hereunder shall be construed as a contract of employment or as
giving any Employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Company or its
affiliates.

      8.5 Protective Provisions. Each Participant shall cooperate with the
Company by furnishing any and all information requested by the Company in order
to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder, by taking such physical
examinations as the Company may deem necessary and by taking such other relevant
action as may be requested by the Company. If a Participant refuses to
cooperate, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Participant under
the Plan, other than payment to such Participant of the existing Deferral
Account balance(s) maintained under the Plan with respect to such Participant.
In the event of such non-cooperation, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may
determine to distribute such balance(s) to the Participant immediately in a
single, lump sum payment.

      8.6 Gender, Singular & Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof
shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity
of the person or persons may require. As the context may require, the singular
may be read as the plural and the plural as the singular.

      8.7 Captions. The captions of the articles, sections, and paragraphs of
this Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning
of construction of any of its provisions.

      8.8 Validity. In the event any provision of this Plan is held invalid,
void, or unenforceable, the same shall not affect, in any respect, whatsoever,
the validity of any other provision of this Plan.

      8.9 Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the
Committee under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered,
or sent by registered or certified mail, to the Company, directed to the
attention of the Deferred Compensation Plan Administrator. Such notice shall be
deemed given as to the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of
the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.

      8.10 Applicable Law. This Plan shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.

                                      -9-

      8.11 Trust Fund. The Company shall be responsible for the payment of all
benefits provided under the Plan. At its discretion, the Company may establish
one or more trusts for the purpose of providing for the payment of such
benefits. Such trust or trusts may be irrevocable, but the assets thereof shall
be subject to the claims of the Company's creditors. To the extent any benefits
provided under the Plan are actually paid from any such trust, the Company shall
have no further obligation with respect thereto, but to the extent not so paid,
such benefits shall remain the obligation of, and shall be paid by, the Company.

      8.12 Ineligible Participant. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Plan to the contrary, if any Participant is determined not to be a "management
or highly compensated employee" within the meaning of ERISA or Regulations
thereunder, such Participant will not be eligible to participate in this Plan
and shall receive an immediate lump-sum payment equal to the amounts standing
credited to his or her Deferral Accounts. Upon such payment, no survivor benefit
or other benefit shall thereafter be payable under this Plan either to the
Participant or any Beneficiary of the Participant.
