defined in Code Section 424(d)] Stock possessing more than 10 percent of the
total combined voting power of all classes of Stock.

6.03      Exercise of Options. Subject to the terms of the Plan, Options will be
exercisable under the conditions specified in the Award Agreement. However:

          [1]       Any Option to purchase a fraction of a share of Stock will
          be liquidated as of the date it arises and the Participant will be
          given cash equal to Fair Market Value multiplied by the fractional
          share.

          [2]       Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the Award
          Agreement, no Employee may exercise Options for fewer than the smaller
          of:

                    [a]       100 shares of Stock; or

                    [b]       The full number of shares of Stock for which
                    Options are then exercisable.

          [3]       No Option may be exercised more than ten years after it is
          granted (five years in respect of an Incentive Stock Option, if the
          Employee owns [as defined in Code Section 424(d)] Stock possessing
          more than 10 percent of total combined voting power of all classes of
          Stock on the Grant Date).

          Options will be interpreted, amended or altered; nor will any
          discretion or authority granted under the Plan be exercised, in a
          manner that is inconsistent with Code Section 422, or, without the
          consent of any affected Member, to cause any Incentive Stock Option to
          fail to qualify for the federal income tax treatment afforded under
          Code Section 421;

          of the Grant Date) with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are

          (under all option plans of the Company and all Subsidiaries of the
          Company) will not exceed $100,000 [or other amount specified in Code
          Section 422(d)]; and

          Eligible Director will be issued Director Options to purchase 2,500
          shares of Stock. The Director Options issued under this section will
          be reduced (but not below zero) by any options issued for the same
          purpose under the Prior Plan.

          [2]       Subject to the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement,
          each Director Option may be exercised at any time during the ten years
          beginning on the Grant Date.

          [3]       However:

                    [a]        Any Director Option to purchase a fraction of a
                    share of Stock will be liquidated as of the date it arises
                    and the Participant will be given cash equal to Fair Market
                    Value multiplied by the fractional share;

                    [b]       Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the
                    Award Agreement, no Eligible Director may exercise Director
                    Options for fewer than the smaller of:

                              [i]       100 shares of Stock; or

                              [ii]      The full number of shares of Stock for
                                        which Director Options are then
                                        exercisable.

6.06      Payment for Options. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the
Award Agreement, the Exercise Price associated with each Option must be paid in
cash. However, the Committee may, at any time and in its discretion, develop,
and extend to some or all Members, procedures through which Members may pay an
Option's Exercise Price, including allowing a Member to tender Stock he or she
already has owned for at least six months before the exercise date, either by
actual delivery of the previously owned Stock or by attestation, valued at its
Fair Market Value on the exercise date, as partial or full payment of the
Exercise Price.

6.07      Transferability of Stock. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in
the Award Agreement, Stock acquired through an Option will be transferable,
subject to applicable federal securities laws, the Company's stock trading
policy, the requirements of the Nasdaq National Market or any national
securities exchange or system on which shares of Stock are then listed or traded
or any blue sky or state securities laws.

                              7.00 RESTRICTED STOCK

7.01      Restricted Stock Grants. Subject to the terms of the Plan and the
Award Agreement, the Committee may grant Restricted Stock to Employees at any
time during the term of this Plan.

7.02      Transferability. Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold,
transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the
end of the applicable Restriction Period. Restricted Stock normally will be held
by the Company as escrow agent during the Restriction Period and will be
distributed as described in Section 7.03. However, at any time during the
Restriction Period, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, issue the
Restricted Stock to the Employee in the form of certificates containing a legend
describing restrictions imposed on the Restricted Stock.

7.03      Removal of Restrictions. Shares of Restricted Stock will be:

          [1]       Forfeited, if all restrictions have not been met at the end
          of the Restriction Period and again become available to be granted
          under the Plan; or

          [2]       Released from escrow and distributed to the affected
          Employee (or any restrictions imposed on the distributed certificate
          removed) as soon as practicable after the last day of the Restriction
          Period if all restrictions have then been met.

7.04      Rights Associated with Restricted Stock.  During the Restriction
Period:

          [1]       Employees may exercise full voting rights associated with
          their Restricted Stock; and

          [2]       All dividends and other distributions paid with respect to
          any Restricted Stock will be held by the Company as escrow agent
          during the Restriction Period. At the end of the Restriction Period,
          these dividends will be distributed to the Employee or forfeited as
          provided in Section 7.03. No interest or other accretion will be
          credited with respect to any dividends held in this escrow account. If
          any dividends or other distributions are paid in shares of Stock,
          those shares will be subject to the same restrictions on
          transferability and forfeitability as the shares of Restricted Stock
          with respect to which they were issued.

                  8.00 PERFORMANCE SHARES AND PERFORMANCE UNITS

8.01      Performance Shares and Performance Unit Grants. Subject to the terms
of the Plan and the Award Agreement, the Committee may grant Performance Shares
or Performance Units to Employees at any time during the term of this Plan.
However, Performance Shares and Performance Units will be granted to
Participants whose compensation is subject to Code Section 162(m) ["Code Section
162(m) Participants"] solely under the terms of Section 8.02, while

                                     - 10 -

<PAGE>

Performance Shares and Performance Units will be granted to Participants who are
not Code Section 162(m) Participants solely under the terms of Section 8.03

8.02      Code Section 162(m) Participants.

          [1]       For each Performance Period, the Committee will establish
          the Performance Goal that will be applied to determine the Performance
          Shares or Performance Units that may be distributed at the end of the
          Performance Period to any Code Section 162(m) Participant.

          [2]       In establishing each affected Code Section 162(m)
          Participant's Performance Goal, the Committee will consider the
          relevance of his or her assigned duties and responsibilities to
          factors that preserve and increase the Company's value. These factors
          will include:

                    [a]       Increasing sales;

                    [b]       Developing new products and lines of revenue;

                    [c]       Reducing operating expenses;

                    [d]       Increasing customer satisfaction;

                    [e]       Developing new markets and increasing the
                    Company's share of existing markets;

                    [f]       Meeting completion schedules;

                    [g]       Increasing standardized pricing;

                    [h]       Developing and managing relationships with
                    regulatory and other governmental agencies;

                    [i]       Managing cash;

                    [j]       Managing claims against the Company, including
                    litigation;

                    [k]       Identifying and completing strategic acquisitions;
                    and

                    [l]       Increasing the Company's book value.

          [3]       The Committee will make adjustments that appropriately
          reflect:

                    [a]       The effect on any Performance Goal of any Stock
                    dividend or Stock split, recapitalization (including,
                    without limitation, the payment of an extraordinary
                    dividend), merger, consolidation, combination, spin-off,
                    distribution of assets to shareholders, exchange of shares
                    or similar corporate change. This adjustment to the
                    Performance Goal will be made [i] to the extent the
                    Performance Goal is based on Stock, [ii] as of the effective
                    date of the event and [iii] for the Performance Period in
                    which the event occurs. Also, the Committee will make a
                    similar

                                     - 11 -

<PAGE>

                    adjustment to any portion of a Performance Goal that is not
                    based on Stock but which is affected by an event having an
                    effect similar to those just described.

                    [b]       A substantive change in a Code Section 162(m)
                    Participant's job description or assigned duties and
                    responsibilities.

          [4]       Performance Goals will be established and communicated to
          each affected Code Section 162(m) Participant in an Award Agreement no
          later than the earlier of:

                    [a]       90 days after the beginning of the applicable
                    Performance Period; or

                    [b]       The expiration of 25 percent of the applicable
                    Performance Period.

          [5]       As of the end of each Performance Period, the Committee will
          certify to the Board the extent to which each Code Section 162(m)
          Participant has or has not met the Performance Goals established under
          this section. These Performance Shares or Performance Units will be:

                    [a]       Forfeited, to the extent that Performance Goals
                    have not been met at the end of the Performance Period, and
                    again become available to be granted under the Plan; or

                    [b]       Valued and distributed, in a single lump sum in
                    the form of cash, Stock or a combination of both (as
                    determined by the Committee) as soon as practicable after
                    the last day of the Performance Period, to the extent that
                    related Performance Goals have been met.

8.03      Non-Code Section 162(m) Participants. At its discretion, the Committee
may issue Performance Shares and Performance Units to Participants who are not
Code Section 162(m) Participants ("Non-Code Section 162(m) Participants") by
applying the procedures described in Section 8.02 or on any other basis it deems
appropriate. These Performance Shares or Performance Units will be;

          [1]       Forfeited, to the extent that any Performance Goals or other
          standards (if any) have not been met, and again become available to be
          granted under the Plan; or

          [2]       Valued and distributed, in a single lump sum in the form of
          cash, Stock or a combination of both (as determined by the Committee)
          at a time determined by the Committee, to the extent that related
          Performance Goals (if any) have been met.

8.04      Rights Associated with Performance Shares and Performance Units.
During the Performance Period, and unless any Award Agreement provides
otherwise:

          [1]       Employees may not exercise voting rights associated with
          their Performance Shares or Performance Units; and

          [2]       No dividends or other distributions made or declared during
          the Performance Period will be paid with respect to any Performance
          Shares or Performance Units.

                         9.00 STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

9.01      SAR Grants, Subject to the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement,
the Committee may grant Affiliated SARs, Freestanding SARs and Tandem SARs (or a
combination of each) to Employees at any time during the term of this Plan.

9.02      Exercise Price. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the Award
Agreement, the Exercise Price specified in the Award Agreement will:

          [1]       In the case of an Affiliated SAR, not be less than 100
          percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant
          Date;

          [2]       In the case of a Freestanding SAR, not be less than 100
          percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant
          Date; and

          [3]       In the case of a Tandem SAR, not be less than the Exercise
          Price of the related Option.

9.03      Exercise of Affiliated SARs. Affiliated SARs will be deemed to be
exercised on the date the related Option is exercised. However:

          [1]       An Affiliated SAR will expire no later than the date the
          related Option expires;

          [2]       The value of the payout with respect to the Affiliated SAR
          will not be more than the Exercise Price of the related Option; and

          [3]       An Affiliated SAR may be exercised only if the Fair Market
          Value of the shares of Stock subject to the related Option is larger
          than the Exercise Price of the related Option.

9.04      Exercise of Freestanding SARs. Freestanding SARs will be exercisable
subject to the terms specified in the Award Agreement.

9.05      Exercise of Tandem SARs. Tandem SARs may be exercised with respect to
all or part of the shares of Stock subject to the related Option by surrendering
the right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option. A Tandem SAR
may be exercised only with respect to the shares of Stock for which its related
Option is then exercisable. However:

          [1]       A Tandem SAR will expire no later than the date the related
          Option expires;

          [2]       The value of the payout with respect to the Tandem SAR will
          not be more than 100 percent of the difference between the Exercise
          Price of the related Option and the Fair Market Value of a share of
          Stock subject to the related Option at the time the Tandem SAR is
          exercised; and

          [3]       A Tandem SAR may be exercised only if the Fair Market Value
          of a share of Stock subject to the Option is larger than the Exercise
          Price of the related Option.

9.06      Settling SARs.

          [1]       A Member exercising a Tandem SAR or a Freestanding SAR will
          receive an amount equal to:

                    [a]       The difference between the Fair Market Value of a
                    share of Stock on the exercise date and the Exercise Price;
                    multiplied by

                    [b]       The number of shares of Stock with respect to
                    which the Tandem SAR or Freestanding SAR is exercised.

          [2]       A Member will not receive any cash or other amount when
          exercising an Affiliated SAR. Instead, the value of the Affiliated SAR
          being exercised will be applied to reduce (but not below zero) the
          Exercise Price of the related Option.

At the discretion of the Committee, the value of any Tandem SAR or Freestanding
SAR being exercised will be settled in cash, shares of Stock or any combination
of both.

                                10.00 TERMINATION

Awards that are outstanding (whether or not then exercisable) when a Participant
Retires may be exercised at any time before the earlier of [1] the expiration

10.02     Death or Disability. Unless otherwise specified in the Award
Agreement, all Awards that are outstanding (whether or not then exercisable)
when a Participant Terminates because of death or Disability may be exercised by
the Participant or the Participant's Beneficiary at any time before the earlier
of [1] the expiration date specified in the Award Agreement or [2] 12 months
beginning on the date of death or Termination because of Disability (or any
shorter period specified in the Award Agreement).

10.03     Termination for Cause. Unless otherwise specified in the Award
Agreement, all Awards that are outstanding (whether or not then exercisable) if
a Participant Terminates for Cause will be forfeited.

10.04     Termination for any Other Reason. Unless otherwise specified in the
Award Agreement or subsequently, any Awards that are outstanding when a
Participant Terminates for any reason not described in Sections 10.01 through
10.03 and which are then exercisable, or which the Committee has, in its sole
discretion, decided to make exercisable, may be exercised at any time before the
earlier of [1] the expiration date specified in the Award Agreement or [2] 90
days beginning on the date the Participant Terminates.

10.05     Limits on Exercisability/Forfeiture of Exercised Awards. Regardless of
any other provision of this section or the Plan and unless the Committee

          [2]       Forfeit all shares of Stock or cash (including dividends
          held in escrow under Sections 7.04[2]) acquired or received by the
          exercise of any Award, lapse of any restrictions or attainment of any
          Performance Goals on the date of Termination or within 180 days before

          cash settlement described in Section 4.04 but excluding amounts
          received as a consequence of a Change in Control as described in
          Section 11.00.

          [3]       The forfeiture described in Sections 10.05[1] and [2] will
          apply if, within the time period described in Section 10.05[2] the
          Member "competes" with the Company or any Subsidiary. For purposes of
          this section, "compete" means:

                    [a]       Anywhere in the State of Ohio or in any other
                    state in which the Company or any Subsidiary is conducting
                    business when benefits are paid, the Member, without the
                    written consent of the Company, provides advice with respect
                    to, engages in or directly or indirectly supervises or
                    assists the provision of any service or sale of any product
                    that competes with any service or product of the Company or
                    any Subsidiary; or

                    [b]       Anywhere in any state, the Member accepts
                    employment with, the Member provides advice to, or engages
                    in or directly or indirectly supervises or assists the
                    provision of any service or sale of any product by any
                    person, company, partnership, corporation or other entity
                    that builds homes, develops land or otherwise competes with
                    the Company or any Subsidiary in any market, city or area in
                    which the Company or any Subsidiary conducts business when
                    benefits are paid.

                             11.00 CHANGE IN CONTROL

11.01     Accelerated Vesting and Settlement. Subject to Section 11.02, on the
date of any Change in Control:

          [1]       [a] Each Option (other than Director Options) outstanding on
          the date of a Change in Control (whether or not exercisable) will be
          cancelled in exchange [i] for cash equal to the excess of the Change
          in Control Price over the Exercise Price associated with the cancelled
          Option or, [ii] at the Committee's discretion, for whole shares of
          Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to the excess of the Change in
          Control Price over the Exercise Price associated with the cancelled
          Option and the Fair Market Value of any fractional share of Stock will
          be distributed in cash, and [b] all related Affiliated and Tandem SARs
          will be cancelled. However, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may
          offer the holders of the Options to be cancelled a reasonable
          opportunity (not longer than 15 days beginning on the date of the
          Change in Control) to exercise all their outstanding Options (whether
          or not otherwise then exercisable) by following the exercise
          procedures described in Section 6.00;

          [2]       All Performance Goals associated with Performance Shares or
          Performance Units will be deemed to have been met on the date of the
          Change in Control, all Performance

          Periods accelerated to the date of the Change in Control and all
          outstanding Performance Shares and Performance Units (including those
          subject to the acceleration described in this subsection) will be
          distributed in a single lump sum cash payment;

          [3]       All Freestanding SARs will be deemed to be exercisable and
          will be liquidated in a single lump sum cash payment; and

          [4]      All Restricted Stock will be released from escrow and
          distributed to the affected Employee (or any restrictions imposed on
          the distributed certificate removed).

11.02     Alternative Awards. Section 11.01 will not apply to the extent that
the Committee reasonably concludes in good faith before the Change in Control
occurs that Awards will be honored or assumed or new rights substituted for the
Award (collectively "Alternative Awards") by the Employee's employer (or the
parent or a subsidiary of that employer) immediately after the Change in
Control, provided that any Alternative Award must:

          [1]       Be based on stock that is (or, within 60 days of the Change
          in Control, will be) traded on the Nasdaq National Market or a
          national securities exchange or system;

          [2]       Provide the Employee (or each Employee in a class of
          Employees) rights and entitlements substantially equivalent to the
          rights, terms and conditions of each Award for which it is
          substituted, including an identical or better exercise or vesting
          schedule and identical or better timing and methods of payment,
          provided that such substitution of an Award will not constitute a
          modification, extension or renewal of any Award;

          [3]       Have substantially equivalent economic value to the Award
          (determined at the time of the Change in Control) for which it is
          substituted; and

          [4]       Provide that, if the Employee's employment is involuntarily
          Terminated without Cause or constructively Terminated by the Employee,
          any conditions on the Employee's rights under, or any restrictions on
          transfer or exercisability applicable to, each Alternative Award will
          be waived or lapse.

For purposes of this section, a constructive Termination means a Termination by
an Employee following a material reduction in the Employee's compensation or job
responsibilities (when compared to the Employee's compensation and job
responsibilities on the date of the Change in Control) or the relocation of the
Employee's principal place of employment to a location at least 50 miles from
his or her principal place of employment on the date of the Change in Control
(or other location to which the Employee has been reassigned with his or her
written consent), in each case without the Employee's written consent but only
if the material reduction or relocation occurs within 24 months after the Change
in Control.

11.03     Director Options. Upon a Change in Control, each outstanding Director
Options will be cancelled unless [1] the Stock continues to be traded on an
established securities market after the Change in Control or [2] the Eligible
Director continues to be a Board member after the Change in Control. In the
situations just described, the Director Option will be unaffected by a Change in
Control. Any Director Option to be cancelled under the next preceding sentence
will be exchanged

                                     - 16 -

<PAGE>

[3] for cash equal to the excess of the Change in Control Price over the
Exercise Price associated with the cancelled Director Option or [4] at the
Committee's discretion, for whole shares of Stock with a Fair Market Value equal
to the excess of the Change in Control Price over the Exercise Price associated
with the cancelled Director Option and the Fair Market Value of any fractional
share of Stock will be distributed in cash. However, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may offer the holders of the Director Options to be cancelled a
reasonable opportunity (not longer than 15 days beginning on the date of the
Change in Control) to exercise all their outstanding Director Options (whether
or not otherwise then exercisable) by following the exercise procedures
described in Section 6.00.

11.04     Coordination of Change In Control Benefits. If the sum of the benefits
received due to a Change in Control, as described in this section, and those
provided under all other plans, programs or agreements between the Participant
and the Company or any Subsidiary constitute "excess parachute payments" as
defined in Code Section 280G(b)(1), the Company and or Subsidiary will either:

          [1]       Reimburse the Participant for the amount of any excise tax
          due under Code Section 4999 (but not for any income taxes or
          additional excise taxes associated with this initial payment), if this
          procedure provides the affected Participant with an after-tax amount
          that is larger than the after-tax amount produced under Section
          11.04[2]; or

          [2]       Reduce the amounts paid to the Participant under this Plan
          so that his or her total "parachute payment" as defined in Code
          Section 280G(b)(2)(A) under this and any all other plans, programs or
          agreements between the Participant and the Company or Subsidiary will
          be $1.00 less than the amount that would be an "excess parachute
          payment," if this procedure provides the Participant with an after-tax
          amount that is larger than the after-tax amount produced under Section
          11.04[1].

              12.00 AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

The Board or the Committee may terminate, suspend or amend the Plan at any time
without shareholder approval except to the extent that shareholder approval is
required to satisfy applicable requirements imposed by [1] Rule 16b-3 under the
Act, or any successor rule or regulation, [2] applicable requirements of the
Code or [3] the Nasdaq National Market or any securities exchange, market or
other quotation system on or through which the Company's securities are listed
or traded. Also, no Plan amendment may [4] result in the loss of a Committee
member's status as a "non-employee director" as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the
Act, or any successor rule or regulation, with respect to any employee benefit
plan of the Company, [5] cause the Plan to fail to meet requirements imposed by
Rule 16b-3 or [6] without the consent of the affected Member, adversely affect
any Award issued before the amendment, modification or termination.

                               13.00 MISCELLANEOUS

13.01     Assignability. Except as described in this section, an Award may not
be transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and,
during the Member's lifetime, may be exercised only by the Member, the Member's
guardian or legal representative. However, with the permission

                                     - 17 -

<PAGE>

of the Committee, a Member or a specified group of Members may transfer Awards
(other than Incentive Stock Options) to a revocable inter vivos trust, of which
the Member is the settlor, or may transfer Awards (other than an Incentive Stock
Option) to any member of the Member's immediate family, any trust, whether
revocable or irrevocable, established solely for the benefit of the Member's
immediate family, any partnership or limited liability company whose only
partners or members are members of the Member's immediate family or an
organization described in Code Section 501(c)(3) ("Permissible Transferees").
Any Award transferred to a Permissible Transferee will continue to be subject to
all of the terms and conditions that applied to the Award before the transfer
and to any other rules prescribed by the Committee. A Permissible Transferee
[other than an organization described in Code Section 501(c)(3)] may not
retransfer an Award except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and
then only to another Permissible Transferee.

13.02     Beneficiary Designation. Each Member may name a Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to receive or to
exercise any vested Award that is unpaid or unexercised at the Member's death.
Each designation made will revoke all prior designations made by the same
Member, must be made on a form prescribed by the Committee and will be effective
only when filed in writing with the Committee. If a Member has not made an
effective Beneficiary designation, the deceased Member's Beneficiary will be his
or her surviving spouse or, if none, the deceased Member's estate. The identity
of a Member's designated Beneficiary will be based only on the information
included in the latest beneficiary designation form completed by the Member and
will not be inferred from any other evidence.

13.03     No Guarantee of Employment or Participation. Nothing in the Plan may
be construed as:

          [1]       Interfering with or limiting the right of the Company or any
          Subsidiary to Terminate any Employee's employment at any time;

          [2]       Conferring on any Participant any right to continue as an
          employee or director of the Company or any Subsidiary;

          [3]       Guaranteeing that any common-law employee will be selected
          to be a Participant; or

          [4]       Guaranteeing that any Member will receive any future Awards.

13.04     Tax Withholding.

          [1]       The Company will withhold from other amounts owed to the
          Member, or require a Member to remit to the Company, an amount
          sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax
          requirements on any Award, exercise or cancellation of an Award or
          purchase of Stock. If these amounts are not to be withheld from other
          payments due to the Member (or if there are no other payments due to
          the Member), the Company will defer payment of cash or issuance of
          shares of Stock until the earlier of:

                    [a]       Thirty days after the settlement date; or

                    [b]       The date the Member remits the required amount.

                                     - 18 -

<PAGE>

          If the Member has not remitted the required amount within 30 days
          after the settlement date, the Company will permanently withhold from
          the value of the Awards to be distributed the minimum amount required
          to be withheld to comply with applicable federal, state and local
          income, wage and employment taxes and distribute the balance to the
          Member.

          [2]       In its sole discretion, which may be withheld for any reason
          or for no reason, the Committee may permit a Member to elect, subject
          to conditions the Committee establishes, to reimburse the Company for
          this tax withholding obligation through one or more of the following
          methods:

                    [a]       By having shares of Stock otherwise issuable under
                    the Award withheld by the Company (but only to the extent of
                    the minimum amount that must be withheld to comply with
                    applicable state, federal and local income, employment and
                    wage tax laws);

                    [b]       By delivering to the Company previously acquired
                    shares of Stock that the Member has owned for at least six
                    months;

                    [c]       By remitting cash to the Company; or

                    [d]       By remitting a personal check immediately payable
                    to the Company.

13.05     Indemnification. Each individual who is or was a member of the
Committee or of the Board will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company
against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be imposed upon
or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any
claim, action, suit or proceeding to which he or she may be made a party or in
which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to take
action under the Plan as a Committee member and against and from any and all
amounts paid, with the Company's approval, by him or her in settlement of any
matter related to or arising from the Plan as a Committee member or paid by him
or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any action, suit or proceeding
relating to or arising from the Plan against him or her as a Committee member,
but only if he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to
handle and defend the matter before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it
in his or her own behalf. The right of indemnification described in this section
is not exclusive and is independent of any other rights of indemnification to
which the individual may be entitled under the Company's organizational
documents, by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise.

13.06     No Limitation on Compensation. Nothing in the Plan is to be construed
to limit the right of the Company to establish other plans or to pay
compensation to its employees or directors, in cash or property, in a manner not
expressly authorized under the Plan.

13.07     Requirements of Law. The grant of Awards and the issuance of shares of
Stock will be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to all
required approvals of any governmental agencies or national securities exchange,
market or other quotation system. Also, no shares of Stock will be issued under
the Plan unless the Company is satisfied that the issuance of those shares of
Stock will comply with applicable federal and state securities laws.

                                     - 19 -

<PAGE>

Certificates for shares of Stock delivered under the Plan may be subject to any
stock transfer orders and other restrictions that the Committee believes to be
advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the Nasdaq National Market or any stock exchange or
other recognized market or quotation system upon which the Stock is then listed
or traded, or any other applicable federal or state securities law. The
Committee may cause a legend or legends to be placed on any certificates issued
under the Plan to make appropriate reference to restrictions within the scope of
this section.

13.08     Term of Plan. The Plan will be effective upon its adoption by the
Board and approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority
of the common shares issued and outstanding as of the record date for the first
Annual Meeting occurring after the Board approves the Plan. Subject to Section
12.00, the Plan will continue until the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.

13.09     Governing Law. The Plan, and all agreements hereunder, will be
construed in accordance with and governed by the laws (other than laws governing
conflicts of laws) of the State of Ohio.

13.10     No Impact on Other Benefits. Plan Awards are incentives designed to
promote the objectives described in Section 1.00. Also, Awards are not
compensation for purposes of calculating a Member's rights under any other
employee benefit plan.

13.11     Effect on Prior Plan. Upon shareholder approval of the Plan, the Prior
Plan will terminate; however, all outstanding Awards at the time of termination
will continue to be governed by the rights and terms of the Prior Plan until
exercised or forfeited.

under all policies covering the property, or (b) rescind the contract and
thereby release all parties from liability hereunder by giving written notice to

destruction. Failure by Buyer to so notify Seller shall constitute an election
